                Tremisis
                  Energy Acquisition Corporation II:

              

            	 	 

    

     

    Gentlemen:

    

    The
      undersigned hereby subscribes for and agrees to purchase ______ Warrants
      (“Insider Warrants”) at $1.00 per Insider Warrant, each to purchase one share of
      common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Tremisis Energy Acquisition
      Corporation II (the “Corporation”) at $6.00 per share for an aggregate purchase
      price of $_______ (“Purchase Price”). The purchase and issuance of the Insider
      Warrants shall occur simultaneously with the consummation of the Corporation’s
      initial public offering of securities (“IPO”) which is being underwritten by
      Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (“Merrill Lynch”). The
      Insider Warrants will be sold to the undersigned on a private placement basis
      and not part of the IPO. 

    

    At
      least
      24 hours prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in
      connection with the IPO (“Registration Statement”), the undersigned shall
      deliver the Purchase Price to Graubard Miller (“GM”) to hold in a non-interest
      bearing account until the Corporation consummates the IPO. Simultaneously with
      the consummation of the IPO, GM shall deposit the Purchase Price, without
      interest or deduction, into the trust fund (“Trust Fund”) established by the
      Corporation for the benefit of the Corporation’s public stockholders as
      described in the Corporation’s Registration Statement, pursuant to the terms of
      an Investment Management Trust Agreement to be entered into between the
      Corporation and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. In the event
      that the IPO is not consummated within 14 days of the date the Purchase Price
      is
      delivered to GM, GM shall return the Purchase Price to the undersigned, without
      interest or deduction.

    

    The
      undersigned represents and warrants that he has been advised that the Insider
      Warrants (including the underlying shares of common stock) have not been
      registered under the Securities Act; that he is acquiring the Insider Warrants
      for his account for investment purposes only; that he has no present intention
      of selling or otherwise disposing of the Insider Warrants in violation of the
      securities laws of the United States; that he is an “accredited investor” as
      defined by Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of
      1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); and that he is familiar with the
      proposed business, management, financial condition and affairs of the
      Corporation.

    

    Moreover,
      the undersigned agrees that he shall not sell or transfer the Insider Warrants
      or any underlying securities until after the Corporation consummates a merger,
      capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination
      with an operating business (“Business Combination”) meeting the requirements set
      forth in the Registration Statement and acknowledges that the certificates
      for
      such Insider Warrants shall contain a legend indicating such restriction on
      transferability. 

    

    The
      Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that in the event the Company calls
      the
      Warrants for redemption pursuant to that certain Warrant Agreement to be entered
      into by the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company in
      connection with the Company’s IPO, the Insider Warrants will be exercisable on a
      cashless basis so long as such Insider Warrants are held by the undersigned
      or
      his affiliates.

    

    The
      terms
      of this agreement and the restriction on transfers with respect to the Insider
      Warrants may not be amended without the prior written consent of Merrill
      Lynch.

    Gentlemen:

    

    The
      undersigned stockholder and director of Tremisis Energy Acquisition Corporation
      II (“Company”), in consideration of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith
      Incorporated and EarlyBirdCapital, Inc. (collectively, the “Underwriters”)
      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 14 hereof):

    

    1. If
      the
      Company solicits approval of its stockholders of a Business Combination, the
      undersigned will vote all Insider Shares 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 24
      months from the effective date (“Effective Date”) of the registration statement
      relating to the IPO, 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
      consideration, prior to presentation to any other person or entity, any suitable
      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
      of
      the Insiders unless
      the Company obtains an opinion from an independent investment banking firm
      reasonably acceptable to the Underwriters that the business combination is
      fair
      to the Company’s stockholders from a financial perspective.

     

    5. Neither
      the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned, nor any affiliate
      (“Affiliate”) of the undersigned will be entitled to receive and will not accept
      any compensation for services rendered to the Company prior to or in connection
      with the consummation of the Business Combination; provided that the undersigned
      shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for his out-of-pocket
      expenses incurred in connection with seeking and consummating a Business
      Combination.  

     

    6. Neither
      the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned, nor 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
      undersigned will escrow all of his Insider Shares acquired prior to the IPO
      until one year after the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination
      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.

    

    8. The
      undersigned agrees to be a Director of
      the
      Company until the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business
      Combination or the liquidation of the Company. The undersigned’s biographical

      undersigned has full right and power, without violating any agreement by which
      he is bound, to enter into this letter agreement and to serve as a Director
      of
      the Company.

    

    10. The
      undersigned hereby waives his right to exercise conversion rights with respect
      to any shares of the Company’s common stock owned or to be owned by the
      undersigned, directly or indirectly, and agrees that he will not seek conversion
      with respect to such shares in connection with any vote to approve a Business
      Combination.

    

    11. The
      undersigned hereby agrees to not propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment
      to
      the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to extend the period of time in which
      the Company must consummate a Business Combination prior to its liquidation.
      Should such a proposal be put before stockholders other than through actions
      by
      the undersigned, the undersigned hereby agrees to vote against such proposal.
      This paragraph may not be modified or amended under any
      circumstances.

      (“Information”). Neither the Underwriters nor their agents shall be violating

      Information and the undersigned hereby releases them from liability for any
      damage whatsoever in that connection.

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