    Gentlemen:

     

    The
      undersigned stockholder and officer of Energy Infrastructure Acquisition Corp.
      (“Company”), in consideration of Maxim Group LLC (“Maxim”) entering into a
      letter of intent (“Letter of Intent”) to underwrite an initial public offering
      of the securities of the Company (“IPO”) and embarking on the IPO process,
      hereby agrees as follows (certain capitalized terms used herein are defined
      in
      paragraph 11 hereof):

     

    1.  If
      the
      Company solicits approval of 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 the Private
      Placement Shares and (ii) all of the shares that may be acquired by him in
      the
      IPO or in the aftermarket for the Business Combination.

     

      2.  In
        the
        event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within
        18
        months from the effective date (“Effective Date”) of the registration statement
        relating to the IPO (or 24 months under the circumstances described in the
        prospectus relating to the IPO), the undersigned will take all reasonable
        actions within his power to cause the Company to liquidate as soon as reasonably
        practicable. In such event, the undersigned hereby 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 Trust
        Account (as defined in the Letter of Intent) as a result of such liquidation
        with respect to his Insider Shares and his Private Placement Shares (“Claim”)
        and hereby 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 and will
        not
        seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever. The
        undersigned 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) which the Company may become subject
        as a
        result of any claim by any vendors or other entities that are owed money
        by the
        Company for services rendered, or contracted for, or products sold to us
        or the
        claims of any target businesses, but only to the extent necessary to ensure
        that
        such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense does not reduce the amount
        in the
        Trust Account;
        provided, however,
        that
        such indemnity shall be limited to the extent of the undersigned’s pro rata
        beneficial ownership of the Company.

    3.  In
      order
      to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple
      affiliations, the undersigned agrees to present to the Company for its
      consideration, prior to presentation to any other person or entity,
      opportunities to acquire entities in the business of supporting the process
      of
      bringing energy, in the form of crude oil, natural and liquefied petroleum
      gas,
      and refined and specialized products (such as petrochemicals), from production
      to final consumption, until the earlier of the consummation by the Company
      of a
      Business Combination, the liquidation of the Company or until such time as
      the
      undersigned ceases to be an officer or director of the Company, subject to
      any
      fiduciary obligations the undersigned might have.

     

    4.  The
      undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Company will not consummate any
      Business Combination which involves a company which is affiliated with any
      of
      the Insiders unless the Company obtains an opinion from an independent
      investment banking firm reasonably acceptable to Maxim that the business
      combination is fair to the Company’s stockholders from a financial
      perspective.

     

    Neither
      the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned, nor any Affiliate
      of the undersigned will be entitled to receive and will not accept any finder’s
      fee or any other compensation for services rendered to the Company prior to
      the
      consummation of the Business Combination; provided that (i) the undersigned
      shall be entitled to receive (a) reimbursement from the Company for his
      out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with seeking and consummating
      a
      Business Combination and (b) if, at any time following a Business Combination,
      the publicly-traded common stock of the Company reaches a volume weighted
      average trading price of $11.00 per share for each day during any five trading
      day period, the undersigned, or his nominees, will be issued 1,400,000 shares
      of
      the Company’s common stock and if, following a business combination, the
      Company’s publicly-traded common stock reaches a volume weighted average trading
      price of $12.00 per share for each day during any five trading day period,
      the
      undersigned, or his nominees will be issued an additional 1,600,000 shares
      of
      the Company’s common stock, and (ii) commencing on the Effective Date, Schwartz
& Weiss, P.C. ("Related Party"), shall be entitled to charge the Company an
      allocable share of Related Party's overhead, up to $7,500 per month, to
      compensate it for the Company's use of Related Party's office space, utilities,
      administrative, technology and secretarial services.

     

    5.  Neither
      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

      currently a defendant in any such criminal proceeding; and

     

    (c)  he
      has
      never been suspended or expelled from membership in any securities or
      commodities exchange or association or had a securities or commodities license

      the
      Company.

     

    9.  The
      undersigned authorizes any employer, financial institution, or consumer credit
      reporting agency to release to Maxim and its legal representatives or agents

      for the purposes of the Company’s IPO. Neither Maxim nor its agents shall be
      violating the undersigned’s right of privacy in any manner in requesting and
      obtaining the Information and the undersigned hereby releases them from
