*Subject:* *答复: BHR Directorship Issues*

Dear Matthew and George,


Preliminarily, can you please provide, in relation to Ulysses and
Skaneateles, certified true copies of:


(i) incorporation documents including certificate of
incorporation, memorandum and articles of association;

(ii) other constitutional documents to the extent available
(operating agreements, shareholder agreements etc);

(iii) a bank reference letter detailing the company’s
accounts and financial information (banks should have their own house form).


Regulators will request additional documents from time to time so please
bear with us as we proceed with the amendments.


Note: All incorporation documents shall be certified by a qualified lawyer
and U.S. Embassy in China. Please see attached precedent for your reference.


Thanks,

Gilbert/BHR Partners

*主题:* RE: BHR Directorship Issues


Xin-

After conferring with Devon, we wanted to take care of the following
outstanding items as it relates to BHR, assuming it all meets with your
approval.

1) Please consider Devon’s resignation letter that was emailed to you and
which you reference below as a final version and please have his
resignation take effect immediately.

2) Please disregard the letter which appoints Hunter to Devon’s Board seat.
For the time being, we will leave Devon’s Board seat vacant.

3) We should begin the process to transfer the 20% of the shares of BHR
owned by RSB immediately so that 10% will be owned by Skaneateles, LLC (of
which the beneficial owners are Hunter Biden and Eric Schwerin) and 10%
will be owned by Ulysses Diversified, Inc. (of which the beneficial owner
is Devon).

4) Finally, we should begin the process to amend the Articles of
Association so that the two Board Seats currently designated to RSB will be
designated to Skaneateles, LLC and Ulysses Diversified, Inc, with each
entity having a separate right to appoint one director. The three U.S.
entities (Ulysses, Skaneateles and Thornton) will jointly designate a
Vice-Chair.

I know Devon, Hunter and Jim have all agreed to the above and I am copying
Jim Bulger, Hunter Biden, Eric Schwerin and George Mesires as well.

Thanks for your patience on this. Please let us know what additional
information you need from us to affect the changes above.

Dear Matthew,


I received the attached from Devon in relation to his resignation from
BHR’s board of directors and RSB’s appointment of Hunter Biden as his
replacement. Please note that Hunter is an existing director of BHR.
Devon mentioned that you might need to further formalize the letters,
however, we need to process the resignation at the earliest and I would be
grateful if you could confirm that the attached is in order. Additionally,
I would also be grateful for your instructions on the proposed transfer of
RSB’s shareholding in BHR to Ulysses, the relevant transfer documents as
well as the incorporation documents of Ulysses would be required. Upon
your confirmation, we will proceed to make the relevant filings with the
PRC regulators.

Dear Matthew,


I understand from Devon that he has given instructions for Boies to effect
his resignation from BHR’s board and the amendment of his shareholding
entity from the existing Rosemont Seneca Bohai LLC to Ulysses. As
previously discussed on multiple occasions, please let us know what you
need from our end to resolve these issues at the earliest. We have been
fending inquiries regarding RSB and Devon’s involvement in ongoing SEC and
Justice Department investigations and we urgently need to remove Devon for
the time being from our director roster to avoid interruptions to BHR
businesses.


Thanks.

*主题:* BHR Directorship Issues


Dear Matthew and George,


Hope all is well since we last spoke. I am writing to follow up on the
status of Devon’s resignation from BHR’s board / remuneration committee and
the appointment of a replacement.


On a related note, I would also like to understand how Devon would like to
deal with his shareholding in BHR through Rosemont Seneca Bohai. By way of
background, we underwent a shareholder registration amendment last year
with the Chinese regulators to change Devon’s shareholding entity from RST
to the existing Rosemont Seneca Bohai (the process took altogether more
than a year), we were subsequently instructed earlier this year to file
another amendment to change Rosemont Seneca Bohai to Ulysses (an entity
owned 100% by Devon) but that has been put on hold on account of present
circumstances. From BHR’s perspective, we ask the relevant parties to
consider, for the time being, a transfer by Rosemont Seneca Bohai of its
shareholding to another entity (whether it is to RSP or Thornton or the
management team) to avoid potential complications for our U.S. M&A deals
and/or U.S. fundraising activities.


Happy to discuss over a call.
