The Put Options may be exercised in whole or in part by each Holder only once at any time between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. from and including the Option Determination Date to and including October 10, 2011 (the “Option Expiration Date”).  The date on which the Put Options held by any Holder are exercised is referred to as the “Option Exercise Date” with respect to such Holder.
 
All dividends and other distributions paid in cash in respect of the Lazard ADSs for which the record date falls during the period from and including March 11, 2011 to but excluding the date on which Repsol becomes the holder of record of any ADSs put to it by any such Holder (any such period, a “Recapture Period”) shall, on the third trading day following the Option Exercise Date (any such date, an “Option Settlement Date”), be repaid by the relevant Holder to Repsol in respect of the number of Lazard ADSs put to Repsol by such Holder on the relevant Option Exercise Date.  Other than dividends of Class D Shares, for which a customary anti-dilution adjustment will be made, all non-cash dividends and other distributions, whether in the form of securities or assets of the Issuer, issued or distributed in respect of the Lazard ADSs for which the record date falls during a Recapture Period shall at such Holder’s election, to the extent of the number of Lazard ADSs put to Repsol by such Holder on an Option

Exercise Date, either (i) be sold by such Holder in an arm’s length transaction to an unaffiliated third party (subject to Repsol’s right of first refusal) and the proceeds thereof shall be paid by such Holder to Repsol on the relevant Option Settlement Date or, in certain limited circumstances, shortly thereafter or (ii) be delivered to Repsol by such Holder on the relevant Option Settlement Date or, in certain limited circumstances, shortly thereafter.
