RE:        Securities Purchase Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We are pleased to accept the offer Azteca Acquisition Holdings, LLC (the “ Subscriber ”) has made to purchase 2,875,000 ordinary shares (the “ Shares ”) of no par value per share (the “ Ordinary Shares ”), up to 375,000 of which Shares are subject to complete or partial forfeiture (the “ forfeiture ”) by you as described in this Agreement if the underwriters of the initial public offering (“ IPO ”) of Azteca Acquisition Corporation, a British Virgin Islands corporation (the “ Company ”) do not fully exercise their over-allotment option (the “ Over-allotment Option ”).  The terms on which the Company is willing to sell the Shares to the Subscriber, and the Company and the Subscriber’s agreements regarding such Shares, are as follows:

1.            Purchase of Shares .   For the sum of $25,000 (the “ Purchase Price ”), which the Company acknowledges receiving in cash, the Company hereby sells and issues the Shares to the Subscriber, and the Subscriber hereby purchases the Shares from the Company, subject to forfeiture, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.  Concurrently with the Subscriber’s execution of this Agreement, the Company is delivering to the Subscriber a certificate registered in the Subscriber’s name representing the Shares, receipt of which the Subscriber hereby acknowledges.

2.            Representations, Warranties and Agreements .

2.1          Subscriber’s Representations, Warranties and Agreements .  To induce the Company to issue the Shares to the Subscriber, the Subscriber hereby represents and warrants to the Company and agrees with the Company as follows:

2.1.1.            No Government Recommendation or Approval .  The Subscriber understands that no United States federal or state agency or similar agency of any other country has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the offering of the Shares.

2.1.2.            No Conflicts . The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation by the Subscriber of the transactions contemplated hereby do not violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) the Subscriber’s articles of association, (ii) any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Subscriber is a party or (iii) any law, statute, rule or regulation to which the Subscriber is subject, or any agreement, order, judgment or decree to which the Subscriber is subject.

  

 

  

2.1.3.            Organization and Authority . The Subscriber is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware and possesses all requisite power and authority necessary to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

2.1.4             Experience, Financial Capability and Suitability .  The Subscriber is sufficiently experienced in financial and business matters to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment and to make an informed decision relating thereto. The Subscriber is aware its investment in the Company is a speculative investment that has limited liquidity, because there may never be an established market for the Company’s securities.  The Subscriber has the financial capability for making the investment and the investment is a suitable one for the Subscriber.  The Subscriber can, without impairing its financial condition, hold the Shares for an indefinite period of time and can afford a complete loss of the investment. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Company has urged the Subscriber to seek independent advice from professional advisors relating to the suitability of an investment in the Company and in connection with this Agreement, and that the Subscriber has sought and received such independent professional advice with respect to such investment and this Agreement or, after careful consideration, the Subscriber has determined to waive its right to seek and/or receive such independent professional advice.

2.1.5.            Access to Information .   Prior to the execution of this Agreement, the Subscriber has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from representatives of the Company concerning an investment in the Company, as well as the finances, operations, business and prospects of the Company, and the opportunity to obtain additional information to verify the accuracy of all information so obtained.

2.1.6.            Private Offering .  Subscriber represents that it is (a) an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”) or (b) not a “U.S. Person” as defined in Rule 902 of Regulation S (“ Regulation S ”) under the Securities Act. Subscriber  acknowledges the sale contemplated hereby is being made in reliance on a private placement exemption to “Accredited Investors” within the meaning of Section 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act or similar exemptions under state law or to a non-U.S. Person under Regulation S. Accordingly, the Shares will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, and therefore may not be offered, pledged or sold by Subscriber, directly or indirectly, in the United States without registration under United States federal and state securities laws or an exemption therefrom and Subscriber understands the certificates representing the Shares will contain a legend in respect of such restrictions.  The Subscriber did not decide to enter into the Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502 under the Securities Act or as a result of any “directed selling efforts” within the meaning of Rule 902 under Regulation S.

  

2

  

2.1.7             Investment Purposes .  Subscriber is purchasing the Shares solely for investment purposes, for the Subscriber’s own account and not for the account or benefit of any U.S. Person, and not with a view towards the distribution thereof and Subscriber has no present arrangement to sell the Shares to or through any person or entity. Subscriber shall not engage in hedging transactions with regard to the Shares unless in compliance with the Securities Act.

2.1.8.            Restrictions on Transfer . Subscriber understands the Shares are being offered in a transaction not involving a public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act, and, if in the future the Subscriber decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Shares, such Shares may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (A) in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S (Rule 901 through 905), (B) pursuant to a registration under the Securities Act, or (C) pursuant to an available exemption from registration.  Subscriber agrees that if any transfer of its Shares or any interest therein is proposed to be made, as a condition precedent to any such transfer, Subscriber may be required to deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company.  Absent registration or an exemption, the Subscriber agrees not to resell the Shares.  Subscriber further acknowledges that because the Company is a shell company and Rule 144 may not be available to the Subscriber for the resale of the Shares until one year following the consummation of a Business Combination despite technical compliance with the requirements of Rule 144 and the release or waiver of any contractual transfer restrictions.

2.2          Company’s Representations, Warranties and Agreements .  To induce the Subscriber to purchase the Shares, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Subscriber and agrees with the Subscriber as follows:

2.2.1             Organization and Corporate Power . The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and is qualified to do business in every jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, operating results or assets of the Company. The Company possesses all requisite corporate power and authority necessary to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

2.2.2.            No Conflicts . The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby do not violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) the memorandum and articles of association of the Company, (ii) any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company is a party or (iii) any law, statute, rule or regulation to which the Company is subject, or any agreement, order, judgment or decree to which the Company is subject.

2.2.3.            Title to Securities . Upon issuance in accordance with, and payment pursuant to, the terms hereof, the Shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Upon issuance in accordance with, and payment pursuant to, the terms hereof the Subscriber will have or receive good title to the Shares, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances of any kind, other than (a) transfer restrictions hereunder and under the other agreements contemplated hereby, (b) transfer restrictions under federal and state securities laws, and (c) liens, claims or encumbrances imposed due to the actions of the Subscriber.

3.            Forfeiture of Shares .

3.1.         Failure to Consummate Business Combination; Partial or No Exercise of the Over-allotment Option .   In the event the Over-allotment Option is not exercised in full, the Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that it shall forfeit any and all rights to such number of Shares (up to an aggregate of 375,000 Shares and pro rata based upon the percentage of the Over-allotment Option not exercised) such that immediately following such forfeiture, the Subscriber and all other initial stockholders prior to the IPO will own an aggregate number of Ordinary Shares (not including ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of any warrants or any shares purchased by Subscriber in the Company’s IPO or in the aftermarket) equal to 20% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Company immediately following the IPO.

3.2.         Failure to Reach Price Targets .   In the event the trading price of the Company’s Ordinary Shares does not exceed certain price targets subsequent to the Business Combination, the Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that it shall forfeit any and all rights to a portion of the Shares (the “Forfeiture Shares”) as set forth below:

(a) in the event the last sale price of the Company’s Ordinary Shares does not equal or exceed $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within at least one 30-trading day period within 36 months following the closing of the Business Combination, Subscriber shall forfeit any and all rights to 378,788 (or 435,606 if the Over-allotment Option is exercised in full) of the Shares; and

(b) in the event the last sale price of the Company’s Ordinary Shares does not equal or exceed $15.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within at least one 30-trading day period within 36 months following the closing of the Business Combination, Subscriber shall forfeit any and all rights to 356,506 (or 409,982 if the Over-allotment Option is exercised in full) of the Shares, in addition to any Shares forfeited pursuant to Section 3.2(a) herein.

3.3.         Termination of Rights as Stockholder .  If any of the Shares are forfeited in accordance with this Section 3 the Company shall immediately repurchase and cancel all such Shares for an aggregate total purchase price of US$1.00 in respect of all such Shares so repurchased on each occasion and, then after such time the Subscriber (or successor in interest), shall no longer have any rights as a holder of such Shares, and the Company shall take such action as is appropriate to cancel such Shares.  In addition, the Subscriber agrees to take any and all action reasonably requested by the Company necessary to effect any adjustment in this Section 3.  The Subscriber for value received, by way of security and in order more fully to secure the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, hereby irrevocably appoints the Company to be its agent and attorney-in-fact to execute and complete on behalf of the Subscriber any deeds, agreements or other documents which the Company may from time to time require to effect the forfeiture, repurchase and cancellation of any Shares pursuant to this Agreement.

4.            Waiver of Liquidation Distributions; Redemption Rights .  In connection with the Shares purchased pursuant to this Agreement and any other Company securities purchased on a private placement basis, the Subscriber hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any distributions by the Company from the Trust Account (as such term is defined in the Investment Management Trust Agreement to be entered by and between the Company and the trustee thereunder), in the event of a liquidation of the Company upon the Company’s failure to timely complete a Business Combination.  For purposes of clarity, in the event the Subscriber purchases Ordinary Shares in the IPO or in the aftermarket, any additional shares so purchased shall be eligible to receive their pro rata portion of any liquidating distributions by the Company.  However, in no event will the Subscriber have the right to redeem any Shares, or any Ordinary Shares purchased in the IPO or in the aftermarket, for funds held in the Trust Account upon the successful completion of a Business Combination.
