A.
Create an AMI from the volume and share the AMI

B.
Copy the data to an unencrypted volume and then share

C.
Take a snapshot and share the snapshot with a friend

D.
If both the accounts are using the same encryption key then the user can share the volume directly

Explanation:
AWS EBS supports encryption of the volume. It also supports creating volumes from existing snapshots
provided the snapshots are created from encrypted volumes. If the user is having data on an encrypted volume
and is trying to share it with others, he has to copy the data from the encrypted volume to a new unencrypted
volume. Only then can the user share it as an encrypted volume data. Otherwise the snapshot cannot be
shared.
