      is
      being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the

      entered into by and between Korea Milestone Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman
      Islands company (the “Company”),
      and

      (the “Underwriters”),
      relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the “Offering”)
      of the
      Company’s units (the “Units”),
      each
      Unit comprised of two ordinary shares of the Company, par value $0.0001 per
      share (the “Ordinary

      and
      one warrant exercisable for one Ordinary Share (each, a “Warrant”).
      Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 13
      hereof.

     

    In
      order
      to induce the Company and the Underwriters to enter into the Underwriting
      Agreement and to proceed with the Offering and for other good and valuable
      consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
      the
      undersigned hereby agrees with the Company and the Underwriters as
      follows:

     

    
      	 	
              1.

            	
              If
                the Company solicits the approval of its shareholders of a Business
                Combination or an Extended Period, the undersigned will (i) vote all
                Initial Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by him or it in accordance
                with
                the majority of the votes cast by the holders of the IPO Shares with
                respect to a Business Combination or the Extended Period and
                (ii) vote all IPO Shares that may be acquired by him or it in the IPO
                or in the aftermarket in favor of a Business Combination and the
                Extended
                Period.

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              2.

            	
              In
                the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination
                within (x) 12 months of the closing date of the IPO or (y) 24
                months from the closing date of the IPO if the Company’s shareholders
                approve a proposal to extend the period of time to consummate a Business
                Combination by an additional 12 months and public shareholders owning
                less
                than 45% of the shares sold in the IPO exercise their conversion
                rights,
                the undersigned will, as promptly as possible, (i) cause the Trust
                Account
                to be liquidated and distributed to the holders of IPO Shares and
                (ii)
                cause the Company to liquidate as soon as reasonably practicable.
                The
                undersigned hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim
                of
                any kind in or to any distribution of the Trust Account and any remaining
                net assets of the Company held outside of the Trust Account as a
                result of
                such liquidation with respect to the Initial Ordinary Shares beneficially
                owned by him. The undersigned further waives any and all right, title,
                interest or claim in or to the Trust Account the undersigned may
                have in
                the future as a result of, or arising out of, any contracts or agreements
                with the Company and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account
                for
                any reason whatsoever; provided, however, that in the event that
                the
                Company fails to consummate a Business Combination and the Trust
                Account
                is liquidated and distributed, nothing herein shall prevent the
                undersigned from participating in the Trust Account pro rata with
                the
                other holders of IPO Shares with respect to any IPO Shares purchased
                by
                the undersigned as part of the IPO or in the aftermarket. In the
                event of
                the liquidation of the Trust Account, the undersigned agrees to indemnify
                and hold harmless the Company, pro rata based on the undersigned’s
                beneficial ownership of the Initial Ordinary Shares, against any
                and all
                loss, liability, claims, damage and expense whatsoever (including,
                but not
                limited to, any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
                in
                investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, whether
                pending or threatened, or any claim whatsoever) which the Company
                may
                become subject as a result of any claim by any vendor or other person
                or
                entity who is owed money by the Company for services rendered or
                contracted for, products sold or contracted for, or by any target
                business, but only to the extent necessary to ensure that such loss,
                liability, claim, damage or expense does not reduce the amount of
                funds in
                the Trust Account; provided that such indemnity shall not apply (i)
                if
                such vendor, person or entity or prospective target business executed
                an
                agreement waiving any claims against the Trust Account (even if such
                waiver is subsequently found to be invalid or unenforceable), or
                (ii) as
                to any claims under the Company’s obligation to indemnify the Underwriters
                against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities
                Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
                The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that there will be no distribution
                from the Trust Account with respect to any warrants or Sponsors’ Warrants,
                all rights under which will terminate upon the Company’s
                liquidation. If
                the remaining assets outside the Trust Account are insufficient to
                pay the
                costs of liquidation, the undersigned agrees to advance to the Company
                the
                funds necessary to complete such liquidation and agrees not to seek
                repayment for such expenses.

            


    

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    
      	 	
              3.

            	
              The
                undersigned hereby (a) waives the undersigned’s right to exercise
                redemption rights with respect to any Ordinary Shares owned or to
                be owned
                by the undersigned, directly or indirectly, and (b) agrees that the
                undersigned will not seek redemption with respect to such Ordinary
                Shares
                in connection with any vote to approve (i) the Extended Period, or
                (ii) a
                Business Combination.

              The
                undersigned hereby agrees and consents to (i) escrow all of the
                undersigned’s Initial Ordinary Shares until one (1) year after the date of
                the consummation of a Business Combination, subject to the terms
                of an
                Escrow Agreement, which the Company will enter into with the undersigned
                and an escrow agent acceptable to the Company, and (ii) execute said
                Escrow Agreement, in a form acceptable to the Company.
                

            


    

     

    5.         
       
      (a) Subject
      to the pre-existing fiduciary duties of the undersigned, the undersigned agrees
      that, from the date of the Prospectus until the earliest of the Company’s
      consummation of its initial Business Combination, the Company’s liquidation, or
      until such time as the undersigned ceases to be an executive officer or director
      (as applicable), the undersigned will, and will cause companies or entities
      under the undersigned’s control to offer to the Company, before pursuing for
      himself or offering to others, any business combination opportunity presented
      to
      the undersigned with a target business (i) that has a fair market value between
      $81.6 million and $400 million, (ii) whose primary operations are located in
      the
      Republic of Korea, and (iii) where the opportunity is to acquire at least a
      controlling interest in the target business (which would be at least a majority
      of the voting securities of the target business and/or control through
      contractual arrangements of the target business or the majority of any governing
      body of the target business). Subject to the pre-existing fiduciary duties
      of
      the undersigned, the undersigned has agreed that the undersigned will not,
      and
      will cause each other company or entity under the undersigned’s control not to,
      pursue any such business opportunity other than on the Company’s behalf unless
      and until the Company’s board of directors, including a majority of the
      Company’s disinterested independent directors, has determined that the Company
      will not pursue such opportunity.

    (b) The
      undersigned agrees that the undersigned will not organize or become involved
      in
      any other blank check company with a focus on acquiring a target business in
      Korea until the Company has entered into a definitive agreement regarding its
      initial Business Combination and filed a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on
      Form 6-K relating to the initial Business Combination, it being agreed and
      understood that the undersigned may, however, organize or become involved in
      other blank check companies with a focus other than acquiring a target business
      in Korea.

                the Company of its initial Business Combination or the liquidation
                of the
                Company; provided,
                however,

                amount shall be due and payable promptly after the consummation of
                the
                Initial Business Combination. The undersigned’s biographical information

                the agreements, representations and warranties set forth herein in

              The
                undersigned hereby agrees to take, or cause to be taken, all actions
                (including, without limitation, executing all agreements and documents)
                and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable
                to fulfill the undersigned’s obligations under this Letter Agreement, or
                as may otherwise be requested or required of the undersigned by the
                Company.

              This
                Letter Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding
                of the
                parties hereto in respect of its subject matter and supersedes all
                prior
                understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the parties
                hereto, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to
                the
                subject matter hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby. This
                Letter
                Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived as to any particular
                provision, except by a written instrument executed by all parties
                hereto.
                No party hereto may assign either this Letter Agreement or any of
                its
                rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written
                approval of the other parties hereto. Any purported assignment in
                violation of this Section 16 shall be void and ineffectual and shall
                not
                operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported
                assignee. This Letter Agreement, the entire relationship of the parties
                hereto, and any litigation between the parties (whether grounded
                in
                contract, tort, statute, law or equity) shall be governed by, construed
                in
                accordance with, and interpreted pursuant to the laws of the State
                of New
                York, without giving effect to its choice of laws principles. The
                undersigned hereby agrees that any action, proceeding or claim against
                the
                undersigned arising out of, or relating in any way to this Letter
                Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State
                of New
                York or the United States District Court for the Southern District
                of New
                York, and irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction. The undersigned
                hereby
                irrevocably and unconditionally waives the right to a trial by jury
                in any
                action, suit, counterclaim or other proceeding (whether based on
                contract,
                tort, or otherwise) arising out of, connected with or relating to
                this
                Letter Agreement. The undersigned hereby agrees to appoint Kenneth R.
                Koch, Esq. at Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo, P.C.,
                666 Third Avenue, New York, New York 10017 (the “Agent”)
                for the service of process in the State of New York, which such Agent
                shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company and Broadband Capital
                Management ("Broadband"),
                to receive, for the undersigned and on the undersigned's behalf,
                service
                of process in any proceeding. If for any reason such Agent is unable
                to
                act as such, the undersigned will promptly (i) notify the Company
                and
                Broadband and (ii) appoint a substitute agent reasonably acceptable
                to
                each of the Company and Broadband, and nothing in this Letter Agreement
                will affect the right of either party to serve process in any other
                manner
                permitted by law.  This
                Letter Agreement shall be binding on the undersigned and the undersigned’s
                respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns.
                This
                Letter Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of (a) the expiration
                of
                the longest lock-up period applicable to the undersigned’s Initial
                Ordinary Shares and (b) the liquidation of the Company; provided
                that such
                termination shall not relieve the undersigned from liability for
                any
                breach of this Letter Agreement prior to its
                termination.
