    Gentlemen:

    

    The
      undersigned shareholder and director of China Ascendance Acquisition Corporation
      (“Company”), in consideration of Susquehanna Financial Group, LLLP
      (“Susquehanna”) and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. 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 15 hereof):

     

    1. If
      the
      Company solicits approval of its shareholders of a Business Combination, the
      undersigned will vote all Insider Shares beneficially owned by him in accordance
      with the majority of the votes cast by the holders of the IPO
      Shares.

     

    2. In
      the
      event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within
18
      months
      of the closing date of the IPO, or within 24 months of the closing date of
      the
      IPO if the Company has entered into a letter of intent, memorandum of
      understanding, agreement in principle or definitive agreement within such
      18-month period but has not consummated a business combination within such
      18-month period, or within 36 months of the closing date of the IPO if the
      Company has obtained shareholder approval for a 12-month extension,
the
      undersigned will (i) cause the Trust Fund (as defined in the Letter of Intent)
      to be liquidated and distributed to the holders of IPO Shares and (ii) take
      all
      reasonable actions within his power to cause the Company to liquidate as soon
      as
      reasonably practicable. The undersigned hereby waives any and all right, title,
      interest or claim of any kind in or to any distribution of the Trust Fund and
      any remaining net assets of the Company as a result of such liquidation with
      respect to his Insider 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 Fund for any reason whatsoever.

    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

      opportunity to acquire an operating business, 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 pre-existing fiduciary and contractual
      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

      Combination. 

     

    7. On
      the

      held
      by him subject to the terms of a Stock Escrow Agreement which the Company will
      enter into with the undersigned and an escrow agent acceptable to the Company.

    14. This
      letter agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance
      with the laws of the State of New York, without

      his

      United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and irrevocably
      submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive, (ii) waives
      any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent
      an

      as
      agent for the service of process in the State of New York to receive, for the
      undersigned and on his behalf, service of process in any Proceeding. If for
      any
      reason such agent is unable to act as such, the undersigned will promptly notify
      the Company and Susquehanna and appoint a substitute agent acceptable to each
      of
      the Company and Susquehanna within 30 days and nothing in this letter will
      affect the right of either party to serve process in any other manner permitted
      by law.

      herein, (i) a “Business Combination” shall mean the acquisition, through a stock
      exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination, of an

      arrangements, that has its principal operations located in the People’s Republic
      of China; (ii) “Insiders” shall mean all officers, directors and shareholders of
