but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth on Schedule 1 hereto. 
  
 In order to induce the Company to engage in the IPO and to take all steps necessary to effect the IPO, including the filing of amendments to the Registration Statement with the SEC, and in recognition of the benefit

 This letter agreement shall be binding on the undersigned and his respective successors and assigns. 
  
 This letter agreement shall be governed by and interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts
formed and to be performed entirely within the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

changed, waived, altered or modified except by written instrument executed and delivered by the party against whom such amendment, change, waiver, alteration or modification is to be enforced.

 Gentlemen: 
  
 This letter will confirm the agreement of the undersigned to purchase (the “Purchase Commitment”) warrants (the
“Warrants”) of TAC Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) that are included in the units (the “Units”) being sold in the Company’s initial public offering
(“IPO”) pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-123382) (as may be amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Registration Statement”). The Purchase
Commitment shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
  
 The undersigned agrees that this letter agreement constitutes an irrevocable order (the “Order”) for the representative of the Underwriters identified in the Registration Statement (the
“Representative”) to purchase for the undersigned’s account, within the sixty (60) trading day period commencing on the date separate trading of the Warrants commences (the “Separation Date”)
pursuant to provisions set forth in the warrant agreement governing the terms and conditions of such Warrants (the “Warrant Agreement”), that number of Warrants having, collectively, an aggregate purchase price
of up to $2,000,000 at market prices not to exceed $0.70 per Warrant (the “Maximum Warrant Purchase”). The Representative (or such other broker dealer(s) as the Representative may assign the order to) agrees to fill such

 This letter agreement shall be binding on the undersigned and his respective heirs, successors and assigns. 
  
 This letter agreement shall be governed by and interpreted and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts formed and to be performed entirely within the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof to the extent such principles or rules would
require or permit the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. 

 No term or provision of this letter agreement may be amended, changed, waived, altered or modified except
by written instrument executed and delivered by the party against whom such amendment, change, waiver, alteration or modification is to be enforced.
