WL Ross Holding Corp.

1166 Avenue of the Americas

New York, NY 10036

 

Re:      Letter Agreement

 

Sir or Madam:

 

This letter (this “Letter Agreement”)
is being delivered to you in connection with your role as a director or officer of the Company, consistent with the terms required
of the company’s existing directors and officers pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”)
entered into by and between WL Ross Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Deutsche
Bank Securities Inc. and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as representatives of the several underwriters
(the “Underwriters”), relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the “Public Offering”),
of 40,000,000 of the Company’s units (the “Units”), each comprised of one share of the Company’s
common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and one warrant (each, a “Warrant”).
Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one-half of one share of the Common Stock at a price of $5.75 per half share,
subject to adjustment. The Units were sold in the Public Offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 and prospectus
(the “Prospectus”) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
and the Company had the Units listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph
9 hereof.

 

For good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned individual, who is a director of the Company or member
of the Company’s management team (the “Insider”), hereby agrees with the Company as follows:

 

1. The Insider agrees that if the Company
seeks stockholder approval of a proposed Business Combination, then in connection with such proposed Business Combination, he or
she shall (i) vote any shares of Common Stock owned by him or her in favor of any proposed Business Combination and (ii) not redeem
any shares of Common Stock owned by him or her in connection with such stockholder approval.

 

2. The Insider hereby agrees that in the
event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement) within 24 months from
the closing of the Public Offering, or such later period approved by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Company’s
amended and restated certificate of incorporation, he or she shall take all reasonable steps to cause the Company to (i) cease
all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 business
days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the Common Stock sold as part of the Units in the
Public Offering (the “Offering Shares”), at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate
amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable and less up to $50,000
of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely
extinguish Public Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions,
if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the
approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject
in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of
applicable law. The Insider agrees to not propose any amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation
that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if the Company
does not complete a Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering, unless the Company provides
its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their shares of Common Stock upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share
price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest (which interest
shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares. 

 

     

    	 

    

 

The Insider acknowledges that he or she has
no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or any other asset of the Company
as a result of any liquidation of the Company with respect to the Founder Shares. The Insider hereby further waives, with respect
to any shares of the Common Stock held by him or her, if any, any redemption rights he or she may have in connection with the consummation
of a Business Combination, including, without limitation, any such rights available in the context of a stockholder vote to approve
such Business Combination or in the context of a tender offer made by the Company to purchase shares of the Common Stock (although
the Insider shall be entitled to redemption and liquidation rights with respect to any shares of the Common Stock (other than the
Founder Shares) he or she holds if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 24 months from the date of the
closing of the Public Offering.

 

3. [Intentionally Omitted]

 

4. (a) Other than in the case of NBNK
Investments PLC, the Insider hereby agrees not to participate in the formation of, or become an officer or director of, any other

has failed to complete a Business Combination within 24 months after the closing of the Public Offering.

 

(b) The Insider hereby agrees and acknowledges
that: (i) each of the Underwriters and the Company would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach by such Insider of
his or her obligations under paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4(a), 5(a), 5(b) and 7 of this Letter Agreement (ii) monetary damages may
not be an adequate remedy for such breach and (iii) the non-breaching party shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition
to any other remedy that such party may have in law or in equity, in the event of such breach.

 

5. (a) The Insider agrees that he or
she shall not Transfer (as defined below) any Founder Shares or Private Placement Shares until the earlier of (i) one year after

recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the
Company’s initial Business Combination or (y) the date following the completion of the Company’s initial Business
Combination on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all
of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property
(the “Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares Lock-up Period”).

 

(b) The Insider agrees that he or she shall
not effectuate any Transfer of Private Placement Warrants or Common Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of the Private
Placement Warrants, until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination (the “Private Placement Warrants Lock-up
Period”, together with the Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares Lock-up Period, the “Lock-up Periods”). 

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions set forth
in paragraphs 5(a) and (b), Transfers of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and shares of Common Stock issued or issuable

officers or directors, any affiliates or family members of any of the Company’s officers or directors, any members of the
Sponsor, or any affiliates of such person or the Sponsor; (b) in the case of an individual, by a gift to a member of one of

merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to
exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the Company’s completion of its
initial Business Combination; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (e), these
permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement agreeing to be bound by these transfer restrictions.

 

     

    	 

    

 

The Insider acknowledges and agrees that,
prior to the effective date of any release or waiver, of the restrictions set forth in this paragraph 5, the Company shall announce
the impending release or waiver by press release through a major news service at least two business days before the effective date
of the release or waiver. Any release or waiver granted shall only be effective two business days after the publication date of
