STOCK ESCROW AGREEMENT

            STOCK ESCROW AGREEMENT, dated as of _____________, 2007
("Agreement"), by and among CHINA OPPORTUNITY ACQUISITION CORP., a Delaware
corporation ("Company"), HARRY EDELSON, BARRY SHERECK, NICK PURO, ROSE-MARIE
FOX, BAILEN ZHENG, DAXI LI and CHINA INVESTMENT GROUP (collectively "Initial
Stockholders") and CONTINENTAL STOCK TRANSFER & TRUST COMPANY, a New York
corporation ("Escrow Agent").

            WHEREAS, the Company has entered into an Underwriting Agreement,
dated __________, 2007 ("Underwriting Agreement"), with EarlyBirdCapital, Inc.
("EBC") acting as representative of the several underwriters (collectively, the
"Underwriters"), pursuant to which, among other matters, the Underwriters have
agreed to purchase 6,000,000 units ("Units") of the Company. Each Unit consists
of one share of the Company's common stock, par value $.0001 per share ("Common
Stock"), and two Warrants, each Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock,
all as more fully described in the Company's final Prospectus, dated _________,
2007 ("Prospectus") comprising part of the Company's Registration Statement on
Form S-1 (File No. 333-137716) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
("Registration Statement"), declared effective on ________, 2007 ("Effective
Date").

            WHEREAS, the Initial Stockholders have agreed as a condition of the
sale of the Units to deposit their shares of Common Stock of the Company, as set
forth opposite their respective names in Exhibit A attached hereto (collectively
"Escrow Shares"), in escrow as hereinafter provided.

            WHEREAS, the Company and the Initial Stockholders desire that the
Escrow Agent accept the Escrow Shares, in escrow, to be held and disbursed as
hereinafter provided.

            IT IS AGREED:

      1.    Appointment of Escrow Agent. The Company and the Initial
Stockholders hereby appoint the Escrow Agent to act in accordance with and
subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agent hereby accepts such
appointment and agrees to act in accordance with and subject to such terms.

      2.    Deposit of Escrow Shares. On or before the Effective Date, each of
the Initial Stockholders shall deliver to the Escrow Agent certificates
representing his respective Escrow Shares, to be held and disbursed subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each Initial Stockholder
acknowledges that the certificate representing his Escrow Shares is legended to
reflect the deposit of such Escrow Shares under this Agreement.

      3.    Disbursement of the Escrow Shares. The Escrow Agent shall hold the
Escrow Shares until one year after the consummation of a Business Combination
(as defined in the Registration Statement) ("Escrow Period"), on which date it
shall, upon written instructions from each Initial Stockholder, disburse each of
the Initial Stockholder's Escrow Shares (and any applicable stock power) to such
Initial Stockholder; provided, however, that if the Company consummates a
Business Combination in which holders of more than 20% of the shares sold in the
IPO exercise their conversion rights (as described more fully in the
Prospectus), Harry Edelson and Rose-Marie Fox agree that the Escrow Agent shall return
to the Company for cancellation a number of Escrow Shares held by them so that
the Initial Stockholders will collectively own no more than 23.81% of the
Company's outstanding Common Stock upon consummation of such Business
Combination (without giving effect to any shares that may be issued in the
Business Combination). If the Escrow Agent is notified by the Company pursuant
to Section 6.7 hereof that the Company is being liquidated at any time during
the Escrow Period, then the Escrow Agent shall promptly destroy the certificates
representing the Escrow Shares; provided further, however, that if, after the
Company consummates a Business Combination (as such term is defined in the
Registration Statement), it

(or the surviving entity) subsequently consummates a liquidation, merger, stock
exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the stockholders
of such entity having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for
cash, securities or other property, then the Escrow Agent will, upon receipt of
a certificate, executed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, in form
reasonably acceptable to the Escrow Agent, that such transaction is then being
consummated, release the Escrow Shares to the Initial Stockholders upon
consummation of the transaction so that they can similarly participate. The
Escrow Agent shall have no further duties hereunder after the disbursement or
destruction of the Escrow Shares in accordance with this Section 3.

      4.    Rights of Initial Stockholders in Escrow Shares.

            4.1   Voting Rights as a Stockholder. Subject to the terms of the
Insider Letter described in Section 4.4 hereof and except as herein provided,
the Initial Stockholders shall retain all of their rights as stockholders of the
Company during the Escrow Period, including, without limitation, the right to
vote such shares.

            4.2   Dividends and Other Distributions in Respect of the Escrow
Shares. During the Escrow Period, all dividends payable in cash with respect to
the Escrow Shares shall be paid to the Initial Stockholders, but all dividends
payable in stock or other non-cash property ("Non-Cash Dividends") shall be
delivered to the Escrow Agent to hold in accordance with the terms hereof. As
used herein, the term "Escrow Shares" shall be deemed to include the Non-Cash
Dividends distributed thereon, if any.

            4.3   Restrictions on Transfer. During the Escrow Period, no sale,
transfer or other disposition may be made of any or all of the Escrow Shares
except (i) by gift to a member of Initial Stockholder's immediate family or to a
trust, the beneficiary of which is an Initial Stockholder or a member of an
Initial Stockholder's immediate family, (ii) by virtue of the laws of descent
and distribution upon death of any Initial Stockholder, or (iii) pursuant to a
qualified domestic relations order; provided, however, that such permissive
transfers may be implemented only upon the respective transferee's written
agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and of the
Insider Letter signed by the Initial Stockholder transferring the Escrow Shares.
During the Escrow Period, the Initial Stockholders shall not pledge or grant a
security interest in the Escrow Shares or grant a security interest in their
rights under this Agreement.

            4.4   Insider Letters. Each of the Initial Stockholders has executed
a letter agreement with EBC and the Company, dated as indicated on Exhibit A
hereto, and which is filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement ("Insider
Letter"), respecting the rights and obligations of such Initial Stockholder in
certain events, including but not limited to the liquidation of the Company.

      5.    Concerning the Escrow Agent.

            5.1   Good Faith Reliance. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for
any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and in the exercise of its own
best judgment, and may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon
any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including
counsel chosen by the Escrow Agent), statement, instrument, report or other
paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and
effectiveness of its

                                        2

provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information
therein contained) which is believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine and to be
signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Escrow Agent shall not
be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or
rescission of this Agreement unless evidenced by a writing delivered to the
Escrow Agent signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights
of the Escrow Agent are affected, unless it shall have given its prior written
consent thereto.

            5.2   Indemnification. The Escrow Agent shall be indemnified and
held harmless by the Company from and against any expenses, including counsel
fees and disbursements, or loss suffered by the Escrow Agent in connection with
any action, suit or other proceeding involving any claim which in any way,
directly or indirectly, arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the services
of the Escrow Agent hereunder, or the Escrow Shares held by it hereunder, other
than expenses or losses arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of the Escrow Agent. Promptly after the receipt by the Escrow Agent of notice of
any demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the
Escrow Agent shall notify the other parties hereto in writing. In the event of
the receipt of such notice, the Escrow Agent, in its sole discretion, may
commence an action in the nature of interpleader in an appropriate court to
determine ownership or disposition of the Escrow Shares or it may deposit the
Escrow Shares with the clerk of any appropriate court or it may retain the
Escrow Shares pending receipt of a final, non-appealable order of a court having
jurisdiction over all of the parties hereto directing to whom and under what
circumstances the Escrow Shares are to be disbursed and delivered. The
provisions of this Section 5.2 shall survive in the event the Escrow Agent
resigns or is discharged pursuant to Sections 5.5 or 5.6 below.

            5.3   Compensation. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to reasonable
compensation from the Company for all services rendered by it hereunder. The
Escrow Agent shall also be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for all
expenses paid or incurred by it in the administration of its duties hereunder
including, but not limited to, all counsel, advisors' and agents' fees and
disbursements and all taxes or other governmental charges.

            5.4   Further Assurances. From time to time on and after the date
hereof, the Company and the Initial Stockholders shall deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Escrow Agent such further documents and instruments and shall
do or cause to be done such further acts as the Escrow Agent shall reasonably
request to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of this
Agreement, to evidence compliance herewith or to assure itself that it is
protected in acting hereunder.

            5.5   Resignation. The Escrow Agent may resign at any time and be
discharged from its duties as escrow agent hereunder by its giving the other
parties hereto written notice and such resignation shall become effective as
hereinafter provided. Such resignation shall become effective at such time that
the Escrow Agent shall turn over to a successor escrow agent appointed by the
Company, the Escrow Shares held hereunder. If no new escrow agent is so
appointed within the 60 day period following the giving of such notice of
resignation, the Escrow Agent may deposit the Escrow Shares with any court it
reasonably deems appropriate.

            5.6   Discharge of Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall resign and
be discharged from its duties as escrow agent hereunder if so requested in
writing at any time by the other parties hereto, jointly, provided, however,
that such resignation shall become effective only upon acceptance of appointment
by a successor escrow agent as provided in Section 5.5.

                                        3

            5.7   Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
the Escrow Agent shall not be relieved from liability hereunder for its own
gross negligence or its own willful misconduct.

      6.    Miscellaneous.

            6.1   Governing Law. This Agreement shall for all purposes be deemed

         Re:  China Opportunity Acquisition Corp.
              -----------------------------------

Gentlemen:

         This letter will confirm the agreement of the undersigned to purchase
shares of common stock ("Common Stock") of China Opportunity Acquisition Corp.
("Company") upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. This letter is
intended to constitute a "written plan for trading securities" within the
meaning of Rule l0b5-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended ("Exchange Act"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, no purchase may take place if such purchase would violate any United
States Federal securities law.

         The undersigned agrees that this letter agreement (which may be
evidenced by original or facsimile counterpart signatures hereto) constitutes an
irrevocable order for EarlyBirdCapital, Inc. ("EBC") or another broker/dealer
mutually agreed upon by EBC and the undersigned (in any case, the "Broker") to
purchase for the undersigned's account during the period commencing ten business
days after the Company files a Current Report on Form 8-K ("Signing 8-K")
announcing its execution of a definitive agreement ("Definitive Agreement") for
the acquisition of, an operating business, or the acquisition of control of such
operating business, through contractual arrangements (herein referred to as a
"Business Combination") and ending on the business day immediately preceding the
record date for the meeting of stockholders at which such Business Combination
is to be approved (such period is hereinafter referred to as the "Purchase
Period") up to $3,000,000 of shares of Common Stock ("Maximum Stock Purchase").
The undersigned further agrees that this letter agreement constitutes an
irrevocable limit order to satisfy the Maximum Stock Purchase at prices not to
exceed the per share amount held in the Company's trust account as of the close
of business on the date the Definitive Agreement is executed (which amount the
Company agrees to include in the Signing 8-K). The undersigned shall deposit the
funds necessary to satisfy the Maximum Stock Purchase (including through the use
of margin) in an account designated by the Broker no later than the date the
Definitive Agreement is signed and agrees to provide to EBC until such time, on
a monthly basis, statements confirming that the undersigned has sufficient funds
necessary to satisfy the Maximum Stock Purchase.

         The Broker agrees to fill such order in such amounts and at such times
and prices, in accordance with the foregoing instructions, as it may determine,
in its sole discretion, during the Purchase Period, subject to the limitations
of Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Accordingly, only purchases
permitted by Rule 10b-18 will be made, and all purchases shall be executed in
the Broker's normal fashion and pursuant to applicable regulation by the SEC and
NASD. The Broker further agrees that it will not charge the undersigned any fees
and/or commissions with respect to such purchases.

         The undersigned agrees that he shall not sell or transfer any shares of
Common Stock purchased hereunder until one year after the Company consummates a
Business Combination.

         The undersigned understands that he shall be responsible to arrange for
any filings that may be required under applicable law (e.g., Schedule 13D, and
Forms 4 and 5). Accordingly, the Broker will provide copies of confirmations of
transactions pursuant to this letter within 24 hours of each transaction to the
undersigned and any other designated person to facilitate the undersigned's
reporting obligations under applicable law.

         The undersigned represents and warrants that (i) the undersigned is not
presently aware of any material nonpublic information regarding the Company or
its securities, and (ii) the undersigned is currently able to enter into this
letter agreement. The undersigned covenants that the undersigned will not
discuss or otherwise disclose material nonpublic information to the Broker or
its personnel responsible for carrying out this purchase obligation during the
Purchase Period.

         The undersigned may notify the Broker that all or part of the Maximum
Stock Purchase will be made by an affiliate or affiliates of the undersigned (or
other persons or entities introduced to the Broker by the undersigned (a
"Designee(s)")) who (or which) will have an account at the Broker and, in such
event, the Broker will make such purchase on behalf of said affiliate(s) or
Designee(s); provided, however, that the undersigned hereby agrees to make
payment of the purchase price of such purchases in the event that the
affiliate(s) or Designee(s) fail to make such payment.

         The Company is unaware, without any inquiry or responsibility to make
any inquiry, of any other legal, contractual or regulatory restrictions
applicable to the undersigned as of the date of hereof that would prohibit the
undersigned from entering into this letter or making any purchase pursuant to
the instructions provided herein.

         This letter agreement shall for all purposes be deemed to be made under
and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York,
without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the
application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. This letter
agreement may be executed in one or more original or facsimile 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.

                                           Very truly yours,

                                           Harry Edelson
