    Ladies
      and Gentlemen: 

    


    The
      undersigned shareholder, officer and director of Renewable Energy Acquisition
      Corp. (the “Company”), in consideration of Crusader Securities, Inc. (the
“Underwriter”) underwriting the initial public offering of the securities of the
      Company (“IPO”), hereby agrees as follows (certain capitalized terms used herein
      are defined in paragraph 11 hereof): 

    


    1. If
      the
      Company solicits approval by its stockholders of a Business Combination, the
      undersigned will vote (i) all Insider Shares owned by him in accordance with
      the
      majority of the votes cast by the holders of the IPO Shares, and (ii) all other
      shares of common stock of the Company then owned by him, whether purchased
      in or
      after the IPO, in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by the holders
      of the IPO Shares. The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that he will not
      be
      entitled to exercise the conversion rights offered to the Company’s public
      stockholders as to any other shares of common stock owned by him. 

    


    2. In
      the
      event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 18
      months from the closing date (“Closing Date”) of the Company’s IPO described in
      the registration statement on Form SB-2, File No. 333-__________ (the
“Registration Statement”) (or 24 months under the circumstances described in the
      Registration Statement), the undersigned (i) will take all reasonable actions
      within his power to cause the Company to liquidate as soon as reasonably
      practicable, (ii) waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any
      kind
      in or to any liquidating distributions by the Company, including, without
      limitation, any distribution of the assets from the trust account established
      under the Investment Management Trust Agreement dated as of __________________,
      2007, between the Company and _____________________ (the “Trust Account”) as a
      result of such liquidation with respect to his Insider Shares (“Claim”), (iii)
      waives any Claim the undersigned may have in the future as a result of, or
      arising out of, any contracts or agreements with the Company except as and
      to
      the extent an agreement is otherwise disclosed in the Company’s registration
      statement relating to the IPO and described in paragraph 5 below, (iv) will
      not
      seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever, and (v)
      agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company 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) to which the Company may become subject as a result of
      any
      claim by any vendor that is owed money by the Company for services rendered
      or
      contracted for or products sold to the Company. 

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    3. In
      order
      to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple
      affiliations, the undersigned agrees that in the event he becomes aware of,
      or
      involved with, (i) any business combination opportunities in the renewable
      energy industry or the environmental industry with
      a
      fair market value of $4.0 million or more or (ii) transactions such as joint
      ventures, partnerships or technology acquisition opportunities in the
renewable
      energy industry or the environmental industry with
      a
      fair market value of $4.0 million or more, the undersigned will first offer
      such
      business opportunities to the Company and further agrees that neither he nor
      any
      affiliate of the undersigned will pursue such opportunities unless and until
      the
      Company’s board of directors determines that it will not pursue such
      opportunities (the “Company’s Right of First Refusal”). The Company’s Right of
      First Refusal will terminate on the earlier of (x) the consummation by the
      Company of a Business Combination and (y) the liquidation of the Company.


    


    4. The
      undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Company will not consummate any
      Business Combination that involves a company which is affiliated with any of
      the
      Insiders, the Underwriter or any selling group member. 

    


    5. None
      of
      the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned, nor any affiliate

      of
      the Business Combination; provided that the undersigned shall (i) be entitled
      to
      reimbursement from the Company for his out-of-pocket expenses incurred in
      connection with seeking and consummating a Business Combination, and (ii)
      receive repayment of the promissory note or notes issued by the Company to
      the
      undersigned. 

    


    6. Except
      as
      specifically proved for herein, none of the undersigned, any member of the
      family of the undersigned, or any affiliate of the undersigned will be entitled
      to receive or accept a finder’s fee or any other compensation in the event the
      undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned or any affiliate of
      the
      undersigned originates a Business Combination. 

    


    7. The
      undersigned will escrow one-hundred percent (100%) of his Insider Shares until

      date
      the Company has completed a Business Combination, or the date of the Company’s
      liquidation.
