1.     Purchase Option.  


        THIS CERTIFIES THAT, in consideration of $100.00 duly paid by or on behalf of Ferris, Baker Watts or its permitted assigns (the "Holder"), as registered owner of
this Purchase Option, to Education Media, Inc. (the "Company"), the Holder is entitled, at any time or from time to time upon the later of the consummation of a Business Combination or
                        2008 ("Commencement Date"), and at or before 5:00 p.m., New York City local time,, 2013 ("Expiration
Date"), but not thereafter, to subscribe for, purchase and receive, in whole
or in part, up to 300,000 units ("Units") of the Company, each Unit consisting of one share of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share ("Common Share(s)"), and one warrant
("Warrant(s)") expiring five years from the effective date ("Effective Date") of the registration statement ("Registration Statement") pursuant to which Units are offered for sale to the public
("Offering"). Each Warrant is the same as the warrants included in the Units being registered for sale to the public by way of the Registration Statement ("Public Warrants"). If the Expiration Date is
a day on which banking institutions are authorized by law to close, then this Purchase Option may be exercised on the next succeeding day which is not such a day in accordance with the terms herein.
During the period ending on the Expiration Date, the Company agrees not to take any action that would terminate the Purchase Option. This Purchase Option is initially exercisable at $12.50 per Unit so
purchased; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 6 hereof, the rights granted by this Purchase Option, including the exercise price per Unit and
the number of Units (and Common Shares and Warrants) to be received upon such exercise, shall be adjusted as therein specified. The term "Exercise Price" shall mean the initial exercise price or the
adjusted exercise price, depending on the context. 


2.     Exercise.  


        2.1    Exercise Form.    In order to exercise this Purchase Option, the exercise form attached hereto must be duly
executed and completed and delivered to the Company, together with this Purchase Option and payment of the Exercise Price for the Units being purchased payable in cash or by certified check or
official bank check. If the subscription rights represented hereby shall not be exercised at or before 5:00 p.m., New York City local time, on the Expiration Date, this Purchase Option shall
become and be void without further force or effect, and all rights represented hereby shall cease and expire. 







 

        2.2    Legend.    Each certificate for the securities purchased under this Purchase Option shall bear a legend as
follows unless such securities have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Act"): 



"THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED ("ACT") OR APPLICABLE STATE LAW. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD
OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT, OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE LAW." 




        2.3    Cashless Exercise.    



        2.3.1    Determination of Amount.    In lieu of the payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Units
for which this Purchase Option is exercisable (and in lieu of being entitled to receive Common Shares and Warrants) in the manner required by Section 2.1, the Holder shall have the right (but
not the obligation) to convert any exercisable but unexercised portion of this Purchase Option into Units (the "Conversion Right") as follows: upon exercise of the Conversion Right, the Company shall
deliver to the Holder (without payment by the Holder of any of the Exercise Price in cash) that number of Common Shares and Warrants comprising that number of Units equal to the quotient obtained by
dividing (x) the "Value" (as defined below) of the portion of the Purchase Option being converted by (y) the Current Market Value (as defined below) of the portion of the Purchase Option
being converted. The "Value" of the portion of the Purchase Option being converted shall equal the remainder derived from subtracting (a) (i) the Exercise Price multiplied by (ii) the
number of Units underlying the portion of this Purchase Option being converted from (b) the Current Market Value of a Unit multiplied by the number of Units underlying the portion of the
Purchase Option being converted. As used herein, the term "Current Market Value" per Unit at any date means: (A) in the event that neither the Units nor Warrants are still trading, the
remainder derived from subtracting (x) the exercise price of the Warrants multiplied by the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants underlying one Unit from
(y) (i) the Current Market Price of the Common Shares multiplied by (ii) the number of Common Shares underlying one Unit, which shall include the Common Shares
underlying the Warrants included in such Unit; (B) in the event that the Units, Common Shares and Warrants are still trading, (i) if the Units are listed on a national securities
exchange (including, without limitation, the American Stock Exchange) or quoted on the Nasdaq Global Market, Nasdaq Capital Market or NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or successor such as the Bulletin Board
Exchange), the last sale price of the Units in the principal trading market for the Units as reported by the exchange, Nasdaq or the NASD, as the case may be, on the last trading day preceding the
date in question; or (ii) if the Units are not listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq Global Market, Nasdaq Capital Market or the NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or successor
exchange), but are traded in the residual over-the-counter market, the closing bid price for Units on the last trading day preceding the date in question for which such
quotations are reported by the Pink Sheets, LLC or similar publisher of such quotations; and (C) in the event that the Units are not still trading but the Common Shares and Warrants underlying
the Units are still trading, the Current Market Price of the Common Shares plus the product of (x) the Current Market Price of the Warrants and (y) the number of Common Shares underlying
the Warrants included in one Unit. The "Current Market Price" shall mean (i) if the Common Shares (or Warrants, as the case may be) are listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the
Nasdaq Global Market, Nasdaq Capital Market or NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or successor such as the Bulletin Board Exchange), the last sale price of the Common Shares (or Warrants) in the principal
trading market for the Common Shares as reported by the exchange, Nasdaq or the NASD, as the case may be, on the last trading day preceding the date in question; (ii) if the Common Shares (or
Warrants, as the case may be) are not listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq Global Market, Nasdaq Capital Market or the NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or successor exchange), but
are traded in the residual over-the-counter market, the closing bid price for the Common Shares (or Warrants) on the last trading day preceding the date in question for which
such quotations are reported by the Pink Sheets, LLC or similar publisher of such quotations; and (iii) if the fair market value of the Common Shares cannot be determined pursuant to
clause (i) or (ii) above, such price as the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine, in good faith. 


        2.3.2    Mechanics of Cashless Exercise.    The Conversion Right may be exercised by the Holder on any business day on
or after the Commencement Date and not later than the Expiration Date by delivering the Purchase Option with the duly executed exercise form attached hereto with the cashless exercise section
completed to the 



2







 

Company,
exercising the Conversion Right and specifying the total number of Units the Holder will purchase pursuant to such Cashless Exercise Right. 


        2.3.3    Warrant Exercise.    Any warrants underlying the Units shall be issued pursuant to and subject to the terms
and conditions set forth in the Warrant Agreement, dated as of                        , 2007, between the Company and Continental
Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as Warrant Agent (the "Warrant
Agreement"); provided, that the exercise price of the Warrants shall be as set forth herein. 




3.     Transfer.  


        3.1    General Restrictions.    The Holder of this Purchase Option, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will not
sell, transfer, assign, pledge or hypothecate this Purchase Option or its underlying shares for a period of one year following the Effective Date to anyone other than (i) Ferris, Baker Watts or
an underwriter or a selected dealer participating in the Offering or (ii) a bona fide officer or partner of
Ferris, Baker Watts or of any such underwriter or selected dealer in accordance with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") Conduct Rule 2710(g)(1). On and after
the first anniversary of the Effective Date, transfers to others may be made subject to compliance with or exemptions from applicable securities laws. In order to make any permitted assignment, the
Holder must deliver to the Company the assignment form attached hereto duly executed and completed, together with the Purchase Option and payment of all transfer taxes, if any, payable in connection
therewith. The Company shall within five business days transfer this Purchase Option on the books of the Company and shall execute and deliver a new Purchase Option or Purchase Options of like tenor
to the appropriate assignee(s) expressly evidencing the right to purchase the aggregate number of Units purchasable hereunder or such portion of such number as shall be contemplated by any such
assignment. 


        3.2    Restrictions Imposed by the Act.    The securities evidenced by this Purchase Option shall not be transferred
unless and until (i) the Company has received the opinion of counsel for the Holder that the securities may be transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Act and
applicable state securities laws, the availability of which is established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company (the Company hereby agreeing that the opinion of Gersten Savage LLP shall be
deemed satisfactory evidence of the availability of an exemption), or (ii) a registration statement or a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement relating to such
securities has been filed by the Company and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") and compliance with applicable state securities law has been established. 


4.     New Purchase Options to be Issued.  


        4.1    Partial Exercise or Transfer.    Subject to the restrictions in Section 3 hereof, this Purchase Option
may be exercised or assigned in whole or in part. In the event of the exercise or assignment hereof in part only, upon surrender of this Purchase Option for cancellation, together with the duly
executed exercise or assignment form and except in the case of an exercise of this Purchase Option contemplated by Section 2.3 hereof, funds sufficient to pay any Exercise Price and/or transfer
tax, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Holder without charge a new Purchase Option of like tenor to this Purchase Option in the name of the Holder evidencing the right of the Holder to
purchase the number of Units purchasable hereunder as to which this Purchase Option has not been exercised or assigned. 


        4.2    Lost Certificate.    Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction
or mutilation of this Purchase Option and of reasonably satisfactory indemnification or the posting of a bond, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Purchase Option of like tenor and date. Any
such new Purchase Option executed and delivered as a result of such loss, theft, mutilation or destruction shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation on the part of the Company.

5.     Registration Rights. 


        5.1    Demand Registration.    



        5.1.1    Grant of Right.    The Company, upon written demand ("Initial Demand Notice") of the Holder(s) of a majority
in interest of the Purchase Options and/or the underlying Units and/or the underlying securities ("Majority Holders"), agrees to register (the "Demand Registration") under the Act, all or any portion
of the Purchase Options requested by the Majority Holders in the Initial Demand Notice and all of the securities underlying such Purchase Options, including the Units, Common Shares, the Warrants and
the Common Shares underlying the Warrants (collectively, the "Registrable Securities"). On such occasion, the Company will file a registration statement or a post-effective
amendment to the Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities within sixty days after receipt of the Initial Demand Notice and use its best efforts to have such registration statement or
post-effective amendment declared effective as soon as possible thereafter. The demand for registration may be made at any time during a period of five years beginning on the Effective
Date. The Initial Demand Notice shall specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. The Company will notify all Holders
of the Purchase Options and/or Registrable Securities of the demand within ten (10) days from the date of the receipt of any such Initial Demand Notice. Each holder of Registrable Securities
who wishes to include all or a portion of such holder's Registrable Securities in the Demand Registration (each such holder including shares of Registrable Securities in such registration, a
"Demanding Holder") shall so notify the Company within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by the holder of the notice from the Company. Upon any such request, the Demanding Holders shall be
entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in the Demand Registration, subject to Section 5.1.4. The Company shall not be obligated to effect more than an aggregate of two Demand
Registrations under this Section 5.1 in respect of the Registrable Securities. In no event shall a registration statement that has been filed with respect to the Warrants be declared effective
until the Company has completed a Business Combination. 


        5.1.2    Effective Registration.    A registration will not count as a Demand Registration until the registration
statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration has been declared effective and the Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect
thereto; provided, however, that if, after such registration statement has been declared effective, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration is interfered with by any
stop order or injunction of the Commission or any other governmental agency or court, the registration statement with respect to such Demand Registration will be deemed not to have been declared
effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding
Holders thereafter elect to continue the offering; provided, further, that the Company shall not be obligated to file a second Registration Statement until a Registration that has been filed is
counted as a Demand Registration or is terminated. 


        5.1.3    Underwritten Offering.    If the Majority Holders so elect and such holders so advise the Company as part of
the Initial Demand Notice, the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering. In such event, the right of any holder to
include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such holder's Registrable Securities in the
underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Demanding Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with
the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Majority Holders. 


        5.1.4    Reduction of Offering.    If the managing underwriter, or underwriters for a Demand Registration that is to
be an underwritten offering, advises the Company and the Demanding Holders in writing that the dollar amount or number of shares of Registrable Securities which the Demanding Holders desire to sell,
taken together with all other Common Shares or other securities which the Company desires to sell and the Common Shares, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written
contractual piggy-back registration rights held by other shareholders of the Company who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares that can be sold in
such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number
of shares, as applicable, the "Maximum Number of Shares"), then the Company shall include
in such registration: (i) first, the number of Registrable Securities as to which Demand Registration has been requested by 



4







 

the
Demanding Holders and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing
clause (i), the Common Shares or other securities that the Company desires to sell and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (iii) third, to the extent
that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), pro rata in accordance with the number of shares that each such Person has requested be included
in such registration, regardless of the number of shares held by each such Person (such proportion is referred to herein as "Pro Rata") as follows: (x) the Common Shares or other securities
registrable pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement between the Company and the initial investors in the Company, dated as of            , 2007 (the "Registration Rights
Agreement" and such registrable securities, the "Investor Securities") as to which "piggy-back" registration has been requested by the holders thereof, and that can be sold without
exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (y) the Common Shares or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual
arrangements with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares. 


        5.1.5    Withdrawal.    If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders disapprove of the
terms of any underwriting or are not entitled to include all of their Registrable Securities in any offering, such majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders may elect to
withdraw from such offering by giving written notice to the Company and the underwriter or underwriters of their request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement filed with
the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration. In such event, the Company need not seek effectiveness of such Registration Statement for the benefit of the initial investors in the Company.
If the majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders withdraws from a proposed offering relating to a Demand Registration, then such registration shall not count as a Demand
Registration provided for in Section 5.1. 


        5.1.6    Period of Effectiveness.    The Company shall cause any registration statement filed pursuant to the Demand
Registration to remain effective until the first to occur of (i) sale or transfer of all the Registrable Securities included in such registration statement and (ii) twelve months from
the effective date of such registration statement, which period shall be extended by the number of days in such period that the Company has advised the Demanding Holders that they cannot sell their
Registrable Securities under the registration statement. 




        5.2    Piggy-Back Registration.    



        5.2.1    Piggy-Back Rights.    If, at any time during the sevenyear period commencing on the Effective
Date, the Company proposes to file a registration statement under the Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for,
or convertible into, equity securities, by the Company for its own account or for shareholders of the Company for their account (or by the Company and by shareholders of the Company including, without
limitation, pursuant to Section 5.1), other than a registration statement (i) filed in connection with any employee share option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer
or offering of securities solely to the Company's existing shareholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company, or (iv) for a dividend
reinvestment plan, then the Company shall (x) give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten
(10) days before the anticipated filing date, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name
of the proposed managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to the holders of Registrable Securities in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such
number of shares of Registrable Securities as such holders may request in writing within fifteen (15) days following receipt of such notice (a "Piggy-Back Registration"). The
Company shall cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and shall use its best efforts to cause the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering
to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company and to permit the sale
or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities
through a Piggy-Back Registration that involves an underwriter or underwriters shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected
for such Piggy-Back Registration. 



5







 

        5.2.2    Reduction of Offering.    If the managing underwriter or underwriters for a Piggy-Back
Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises the Company and the holders of Registrable Securities in writing that the dollar amount or number of Common Shares which the Company desires
to sell, taken together with (i) Common Shares, if any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant to written contractual arrangements with persons other than the holders of
Registrable Securities hereunder; (ii) the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested under this Section 5.2; and (iii) the Common Shares, if any, as to
which registration has been requested pursuant to the written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other shareholders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares, then
the Company shall include in any such registration: 



        (a)   If
the registration is undertaken for the Company's account: (A) first, the Common Shares or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold
without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), (x) the Common
Shares or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Securities and Investor Securities, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the applicable written contractual
piggy-back registration rights of such security holders, Pro Rata, and (y) the Common Shares or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to
register pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights with such persons, Pro Rata, and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares. 


        (b)   If
the registration is a "demand" registration undertaken at the demand of holders of Investor Securities, (A) first, the Common Shares or other securities for
the account of the demanding persons, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the
foregoing clause (A), the Common Shares or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (C) third, to the extent
that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the shares of Registrable Securities,, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to
the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing
clauses (A), (B) and (C), the Common Shares or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such
persons, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and 


        (c)   If
the registration is a "demand" registration undertaken at the demand of persons other than either the holders of Registrable Securities or of Investor Securities,
(A) first, the Common Shares or other securities for the account of the demanding persons that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum
Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Common Shares or other securities that the Company
desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses
(A) and (B), collectively the Common Shares or other securities comprised of Registrable Securities and Investor Securities, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms
hereof and of the Registration Rights Agreement, as applicable, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares
has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the Common Shares or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to
written contractual arrangements with such persons, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares. 




        5.2.3    Withdrawal.    Any holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such holder's request for inclusion
of Registrable Securities in any Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to the Company of such request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The
Company (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by persons making a demand pursuant to written contractual obligations) may withdraw a registration statement at any time
prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement. Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, the Company shall pay all expenses incurred by the holders of Registrable Securities in connection with
such Piggy-Back Registration as provided in Section 5.4.1. 



6







 

        5.3    No Net-Cash Settlement or Damages Upon Failure of Registration.    In no event shall the registered
holder of this Purchase Option and the Warrants underlying the Purchase Option be entitled to (i) net-cash settlement of this Purchase Option or the Warrants underlying the Purchase
Option, regardless of whether any or all of the Registrable Securities have been registered by the Company pursuant to an effective registration statement, or (ii) receive any damages if any or
all of the Registrable Securities have not been registered by the Company pursuant to an effective registration statement, subject to the requirement that the Company use its best efforts to have a
registration statement or post-effective amendment filed pursuant to this Section declared effective as soon as possible after receiving the Initial Demand Notice. In the event there is no
effective registration statement related to the issuance or exercise of the Warrants contained within the Units, that portion of the Units may not be exercised by the holder and therefore may expire
and be worthless. 


        5.4    General Terms.    



        5.4.1    Registration Expenses.    The Company shall bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any
Demand Registration or any Piggy-Back Registration, and all expenses incurred in performing or complying with its other obligations under this Agreement, whether or not the Registration
Statement becomes effective or whether any or all Demanding Holders of Registrable Securities withdraw from any Registration Statement, including, without limitation: (i) all registration and
filing fees; (ii) fees and expenses of compliance with securities or "blue sky" laws (including fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable

of any special experts retained by the Company in connection with such registration; and (ix) the fees and expenses of one legal counsel selected by the holders of a
majority-in-interest of the Registrable Securities included in such registration. The Company shall have no obligation to pay any underwriting discounts or selling commissions
attributable to the Registrable Securities being sold by the holders thereof, which
underwriting discounts or selling commissions shall be borne by such holders. Additionally, in an underwritten offering, all selling shareholders and the Company shall bear the expenses of the
underwriter pro rata in proportion to the respective amount of shares each is selling in such offering. 


        5.4.2    Indemnification.    The Company shall indemnify the Holder(s) of the Registrable Securities to be sold
pursuant to any registration statement hereunder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder(s) within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), against all loss, claim, damage, expense or liability (including all reasonable attorneys' fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in
investigating, preparing or defending against litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever whether arising out of any action between the underwriter and the Company or between the
underwriter and any third party or otherwise) to which any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, arising from such registration statement but only to the same extent
and with the same effect as the provisions pursuant to which the Company has agreed to indemnify the underwriter contained in Section 5 of the Underwriting Agreement between the Company and
Ferris, Baker Watts dated the Effective Date (the "Underwriting Agreement"). The Holder(s) of the Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to such registration statement, and their successors and
assigns, shall severally, and not jointly, indemnify the Company, its officers and directors and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or
Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, against all loss, claim, damage, expense or liability (including all reasonable attorneys' fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating,
preparing or defending against any claim whatsoever) to which they may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, arising from information furnished by or on behalf of such Holders,
or their successors or assigns, in writing, for specific inclusion in such registration statement to the same extent and with the same effect as the provisions contained in Section 5 of the
Underwriting Agreement pursuant to which the underwriters have agreed to indemnify the Company. 



7







 

        5.4.3    Exercise of Purchase Options.    Nothing contained in this Purchase Option shall be construed as requiring
the Holder(s) to exercise their Purchase Options or Warrants underlying such Purchase Options prior to or after the initial filing of any registration statement or the effectiveness thereof. 



        5.4.4    Documents Delivered to Holders.    The Company shall furnish Ferris, Baker Watts, as representative of the
Holders participating in any of the foregoing offerings, a signed counterpart, addressed to the participating Holders, of (i) an opinion of counsel to the Company, dated the effective date of
such registration statement (and, if such registration includes an underwritten public offering, an opinion dated the date of the closing under any underwriting agreement related thereto), and
(ii) a "cold comfort" letter dated the effective date of such registration statement (and, if such registration includes an underwritten public offering, a letter dated the date of the closing
under the underwriting agreement) signed by the independent public accountants who have issued a report on the Company's financial statements included in such registration statement, in each case
covering substantially the same matters with respect to such registration statement (and the prospectus included therein) and, in the case of such accountants' letter, with respect to events
subsequent to the date of such financial statements, as are customarily covered in opinions of issuer's counsel and in accountants' letters delivered to underwriters in underwritten public offerings
of securities. The Company shall also deliver promptly to Ferris, Baker Watts, as representative of the Holders participating in the offering, the correspondence and memoranda described below and
copies of all correspondence between the Commission and the Company, its counsel or auditors and all memoranda relating to discussions with the Commission or its staff with respect to the registration
statement and permit Ferris, Baker Watts, as representative of the Holders, to do such investigation, upon reasonable advance notice, with respect to information contained in or omitted from the
registration statement as it deems reasonably necessary to comply with applicable securities laws or rules of the NASD. Such investigation shall include access to books, records and properties and
opportunities to discuss the business of the Company with its officers and independent auditors, all to such reasonable extent and at such reasonable times and as often as Ferris, Baker Watts, as
representative of the Holders, shall reasonably request. The Company shall not be required to disclose any confidential information or other records to Ferris, Baker Watts, as
representative of the Holders, or to any other person, until and unless such persons shall have entered into confidentiality agreements (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company),
with the Company with respect thereto. 


        5.4.5    Underwriting Agreement.    The Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement with the managing
underwriter(s), if any, selected by any Holders whose Registrable Securities are being registered pursuant to this Section 5, which managing underwriter shall be reasonably acceptable to the
Company. Such agreement shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, each Holder and such managing underwriters, and shall contain such representations, warranties and
covenants by the Company and such other terms as are customarily contained in agreements of that type used by the managing underwriter. The Holders shall be parties to any underwriting agreement
relating to an underwritten sale of their Registrable Securities and may, at their option, require that any or all the representations, warranties and covenants of the Company to or for the benefit of
such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of such Holders. Such Holders shall not be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the
underwriters except as they may relate to such Holders and their intended methods of distribution. Such Holders, however, shall agree to such covenants and indemnification and contribution obligations
for selling shareholders as are customarily contained in agreements of that type used by the managing underwriter. Further, such Holders shall execute appropriate custody agreements and otherwise
cooperate fully in the preparation of the registration statement and other documents relating to any offering in which they include securities pursuant to this Section 5. Each Holder shall also
furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be reasonably required to effect the
registration of the Registrable Securities. 


        5.4.6    Rule 144 Sale.    Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 5 to the contrary, the
Company shall have no obligation pursuant to Sections 5.1 or 5.2 for the registration of Registrable Securities held by any Holder (i) where such Holder would then be entitled to sell under
Rule 144 within any three-month period (or such other period prescribed under Rule 144 as may be provided by amendment thereof) all of the Registrable Securities then held by such
Holder, and (ii) where the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holder is within the volume limitations under paragraph (e) of Rule 144 (calculated as if such Holder were
an affiliate within the meaning of Rule 144). 



8







 

        5.4.7    Supplemental Prospectus.    Each Holder agrees, that upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the
happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in the registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing, such Holder will immediately discontinue disposition of the
Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities until such Holder's receipt of the copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus, and, if so desired
by the Company, such Holder shall deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company) or destroy (and deliver to the Company a certificate of such destruction) all copies, other than permanent file
copies then in such Holder's possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. 




6.     Adjustments.  


        6.1    Adjustments to Exercise Price and Number of Securities.    The Exercise Price and the number of Units
underlying the Purchase Option shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter set forth: 



        6.1.1    Share Dividends—Split-Ups.    If after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions
of Section 6.3 below, the number of outstanding Common Shares is increased by a share dividend payable in Common Shares or by a split-up of Common Shares or other similar event,
then, on the effective date thereof, the number of Common Shares underlying each of the Units purchasable hereunder shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares. In such
case, the number of Common Shares, and the exercise price applicable thereto, underlying the Warrants underlying each of the Units purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted in accordance with the terms
of the Warrants. For example, if the Company declares a two-for-one share dividend and at the time of such dividend this Purchase Option is for the purchase of one Unit at
$12.50 per whole Unit (each Warrant underlying the Units is exercisable for $7.50 per share), upon effectiveness of the dividend, this Purchase Option will be adjusted to allow for the purchase of one
Unit at $12.50 per Unit, each Unit entitling the holder to receive two Common Shares and two Warrants (each Warrant exercisable for $3.75 per share). 


        6.1.2    Extraordinary Dividend.    If the Company, at any time while this Purchase Option is outstanding and
unexpired, shall pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of Common Stock (or other shares of the Company's capital stock receivable upon exercise of
the Purchase Option), other than (i) as described in Sections 6.1.1, 6.1.3 or 6.1.4, (ii) regular quarterly or other periodic dividends, (iii) in connection with the redemption
rights of the holders of Common Stock upon consummation of the Company's initial Business Combination, or (iv) in connection with the Company's liquidation and the distribution of its assets
upon its failure to consummate a Business Combination (any such non-excluded event being referred to herein as an "Extraordinary Dividend"), then the Exercise Price shall be decreased,
effective immediately after the effective date of such Extraordinary Dividend, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value (as determined by the Company's Board of Directors, in good faith) of
any securities or other assets paid on each share of Common Stock in respect of such Extraordinary Dividend. 


        6.1.3    Aggregation of Shares.    If after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 6.3, the
number of outstanding Common Shares is decreased by a consolidation, combination or reclassification of Common Shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date thereof, the number of Common
Shares underlying each of the Units purchasable hereunder shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares. In such case, the number of Common Shares, and the exercise price
applicable thereto, underlying the Warrants underlying each of the Units purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Warrants. 


        6.1.4    Replacement of Securities Upon Reorganization, etc.    In case of any reclassification or reorganization of
the outstanding Common Shares other than a change covered by Section 6.1.1 or 6.1.3 hereof or that solely affects the par value of such Common Shares, or in the case of any merger or
consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification
or reorganization of the outstanding Common 



9







 

Shares),
or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is
dissolved, the Holder of this Purchase Option shall have the right thereafter (until the expiration of the right of exercise of this Purchase Option) to receive upon the exercise hereof, for the same
aggregate
Exercise Price payable hereunder immediately prior to such event, the kind and amount of shares or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization,
merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, by a Holder of the number of Common Shares of the Company obtainable upon exercise of this Purchase Option and the
underlying Warrants immediately prior to such event; and if any reclassification also results in a change in Common Shares covered by Section 6.1.1 or 6.1.3, then such adjustment shall be made
pursuant to Sections 6.1.1, 6.1.3 and this Section 6.1.4. The provisions of this Section 6.1.4 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or
consolidations, sales or other transfers. 


        6.1.5    Changes in Form of Purchase Option.    This form of Purchase Option need not be changed because of any change
pursuant to this Section 6, and Purchase Options issued after such change may state the same Exercise Price and the same number of Units as are stated in the Purchase Options initially issued
pursuant to this Agreement. The acceptance by any Holder of the issuance of new Purchase Options reflecting a required or permissive change shall not be deemed to waive any rights to an adjustment
occurring after the Commencement Date or the computation thereof. 


        6.1.6    Adjustments of Warrants.    To the extent the price of the Warrants are lowered pursuant to
Section 3.1 of the Warrant Agreement between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, dated the Effective Date (the "Underwriting Agreement"), the price of the
Warrants underlying the Purchase Option shall be reduced on identical percentage terms. To the extent the duration of the Warrants is extended pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Warrant Agreement,
the duration of the Warrants underlying the Purchase Option shall be extended on identical terms. 




        6.2    Substitute Purchase Option.    In case of any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company with
or into, another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger which does not result in any reclassification or change of the outstanding Common Shares), the corporation formed by such
consolidation or merger shall execute and deliver to the Holder a supplemental Purchase Option providing that the holder of each Purchase Option then outstanding or to be outstanding shall have the
right thereafter (until the stated expiration of such Purchase Option) to receive, upon exercise of such Purchase Option, the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property receivable
upon such consolidation or merger, by a holder of the number of Common Shares of the Company for which such Purchase Option might have been exercised immediately prior to such consolidation, merger,
sale or transfer. Such supplemental Purchase Option shall provide for adjustments which shall be identical to the adjustments provided in this Section 6. The above provision of this Section
shall similarly apply to successive consolidations or mergers. 


        6.3    Elimination of Fractional Interests.    The Company shall not be required to issue certificates representing
fractions of Common Shares or Warrants upon the exercise of the Purchase Option, nor shall it be required to issue scrip or pay cash in lieu of any fractional interests, it being the intent of the
parties that all fractional interests shall be eliminated by rounding any fraction up to the nearest whole number of Warrants, Common Shares or other securities, properties or rights. 


7.    Reservation and Listing.    The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Shares,
solely for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of the Purchase Options or the Warrants underlying the Purchase Option, such number of Common Shares or other securities, properties or rights as shall
be issuable upon the exercise thereof. The Company covenants and agrees that, upon exercise of the Purchase Options and payment of the Exercise Price therefor, all Common Shares and other securities
issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and not subject to preemptive rights of any shareholder. The Company further covenants and
agrees that upon exercise of the Warrants underlying the Purchase Options and payment of the respective Warrant exercise price therefor, all Common Shares and other securities issuable upon such
exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and not subject to preemptive rights of any shareholder. As long as the Purchase Options shall be outstanding, the
Company shall use 


10







 

its
best efforts to cause all (i) Units and Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Purchase Options, (ii) Warrants issuable upon exercise of the Purchase Options; and
(iii) Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants included in the Units issuable upon exercise of the Purchase Option to be listed (subject to official notice of issuance) on all
securities exchanges (or, if applicable on the Nasdaq Global Market, Capital Market, OTC Bulletin Board or any successor trading market) on which the Units, the Common Shares or the Public Warrants
issued to the public in connection herewith may then be listed and/or quoted. 


8.     Notice Requirements.  


        8.1    Holder's Right to Receive Notice.    Nothing herein shall be construed as conferring upon the Holders the right
to vote or consent as a shareholder for the election of directors or any other matter, or as having any rights whatsoever as a shareholder of the Company. If, however, at any time prior to the
expiration of the Purchase Options and their exercise, any of the events described in Section 8.2 shall occur, then, in one or more of said events, the Company shall give written notice of such
event at least fifteen days prior to the date fixed as a record date or the date of closing the transfer books for the determination of the shareholders entitled to such dividend, distribution,
conversion or exchange of securities or subscription rights, or entitled to vote on such proposed dissolution, liquidation, winding up or sale. Such notice shall specify such record date or the date
of the closing of the transfer books, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall deliver to each Holder a copy of each notice given to the other shareholders of the Company
at the same time and in the same manner that such notice is given to the shareholders. 


        8.2    Events Requiring Notice.    The Company shall be required to give the notice described in this Section 8
upon one or more of the following events: (i) if the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution
payable otherwise than in cash, or a cash dividend or distribution payable otherwise than out of retained earnings, as indicated by the accounting treatment of such dividend or distribution on the
books of the Company, or (ii) the Company shall offer to all the holders of its Common Shares any additional shares of share capital of the Company or securities convertible into or
exchangeable for shares of share capital of the Company, or any option, right or warrant to subscribe therefor, or (iii) a dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company (other than in
connection with a consolidation or merger) or a sale of all or substantially all of its property, assets and business shall be proposed. 



        8.3    Notice of Change in Exercise Price.    The Company shall, promptly after an event requiring a change in the
Exercise Price pursuant to Section 6 hereof, send notice to the Holders of such event and change ("Price Notice"). The Price Notice shall describe the event causing the change and the method of
calculating same and shall be certified as being true and accurate by the Company's President and Chief Financial Officer. 


        8.4    Transmittal of Notices.    All notices, requests, consents and other communications under this Purchase Option
shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly made when hand delivered, or mailed by express mail or private courier service: (i) if to the registered Holder of the Purchase Option,
to the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company, or (ii) if to the Company, to the following address or to such other address as the Company may designate by notice to the
Holders:

9.     Miscellaneous.  



        9.1    Amendments.    The Company and Ferris, Baker Watts may from time to time supplement or amend this Purchase
Option without the approval of any of the Holders in order to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision contained herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other
provisions herein, or to make any other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising hereunder that the Company and Ferris, Baker Watts may deem necessary or desirable and that the Company and
Ferris, Baker Watts deem shall not adversely 


11







 

affect
the interest of the Holders. All other modifications or amendments shall require the written consent of and be signed by the party against whom enforcement of the modification or amendment is
sought. 


        9.2    Headings.    The headings contained herein are for the sole purpose of convenience of reference, and shall not
in any way limit or affect the meaning or interpretation of any of the terms or provisions of this Purchase Option. 



        9.3    Entire Agreement.    This Purchase Option (together with the other agreements and documents being delivered
pursuant to or in connection with this Purchase Option) constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings of the parties, oral and written, with respect to the subject matter hereof. 


        9.4    Binding Effect.    This Purchase Option shall inure solely to the benefit of and shall be binding upon, the
Holder and the Company and their permitted assignees, respective successors, legal representative and assigns, and no other person shall have or be construed to have any legal or equitable right,
remedy or claim under or in respect of or by virtue of this Purchase Option or any provisions herein contained. 


        9.5    Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.    This Purchase Option shall be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland, without giving effect to conflict of laws. The Company hereby agrees that any action, proceeding or claim against it arising out of, or
relating in any way to this Purchase Option shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of Maryland or of the United States of America for the Southern District of Maryland, and
irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive. The Company hereby waives any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient
forum. Any
process or summons to be served upon the Company may be served by transmitting a copy thereof by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to it at the address
set forth in Section 8 hereof. Such mailing shall be deemed personal service and shall be legal and binding upon the Company in any action, proceeding or claim. The Company and the Holder agree
that the prevailing party(ies) in any such action shall be entitled to recover from the other party(ies) all of its reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses relating to such action or proceeding and/or
incurred in connection with the preparation therefor. 


        9.6    Waiver, etc.    The failure of the Company or the Holder to at any time enforce any of the provisions of this
Purchase Option shall not be deemed or construed to be a waiver of any such provision, nor to in any way affect the validity of this Purchase Option or any provision hereof or the right of the Company
or any Holder to thereafter enforce each and every provision of this Purchase Option. No waiver of any breach, non-compliance or non-fulfillment of any of the provisions of
this Purchase Option shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument executed by the party or parties against whom or which enforcement of such waiver is sought; and no waiver of any such
breach, non-compliance or non- fulfillment shall be construed or deemed to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach, non-compliance or
non-fulfillment. 


        9.7    Execution in Counterparts.    This Purchase Option may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by the
different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement, and shall become
effective when one or more counterparts has been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to each of the other parties hereto. 



        9.8    Exchange Agreement.    As a condition of the Holder's receipt and acceptance of this Purchase Option, Holder
agrees that, at any time prior to the complete exercise of this Purchase Option by Holder, if the Company and Ferris, Baker Watts enter into an agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") pursuant to which
they agree that all outstanding Purchase Options will be exchanged for securities or cash or a combination of both, then Holder shall agree to such exchange and become a party to the Exchange
Agreement.
