    Gentlemen:

    

    As a
condition to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by that certain
agreement (the “Put/Call
Agreement”), dated the date hereof, by and among North Shore Acquisition
Corp. (the “Company”),
Barry J. Gordon, Marc H. Klee, Robert Sroka, Arthur H. Goldberg, Harvey Granat,
Alan J. Loewenstein (collectively, the “Sellers”) and Sang-Chul Kim,
the undersigned hereby agrees as follows (certain capitalized terms used herein
are defined in paragraph 10 hereof):

    

    1.           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 Company’s initial public offering of
securities (“IPO”), the
undersigned will (i) cause the trust fund established in connection with the
Company’s IPO (the “Trust
Fund”) 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 (“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.

    

    2.           In
order to minimize potential conflicts of interest that 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.

    

    3.           The
undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Company will not consummate any
Business Combination that involves a company that is affiliated with any of the
Insiders unless the Company obtains an opinion from an independent investment
banking firm reasonably acceptable to EarlyBirdCapital, Inc., as representative
of the underwriters of the Company’s IPO (the “Underwriters”), that the
Business Combination is fair to the Company’s stockholders from a financial
perspective.

    

    4.           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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will be
allowed to enter into a services agreement with Capital Express Co., Ltd.
(“Related Party”) for

Related Party and the undersigned shall also be entitled to reimbursement from
the Company for their out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with seeking
and consummating a Business Combination.

    
      
         

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    

    5.           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.

    

    6.           The
undersigned agrees to be the President and Chief Executive Officer and a member
of the Board of Directors of the Company until the earlier of the consummation
by the Company of a Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company. The

Underwriters and attached hereto as Exhibit A is true and
accurate in all respects, does not omit any material information with respect to
the undersigned’s background and contains all of the information required to be
disclosed pursuant to Item 401 of Regulation S-K, promulgated under the

cease-and-desist order or order or stipulation to desist or refrain from any act

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

Combination.

    

    9.           This
letter agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of
law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of
another jurisdiction. The undersigned hereby (i) agrees that any action,
proceeding or claim against him arising out of or relating in any way to this
letter agreement (a “Proceeding”) shall be brought
and enforced in the courts of the State of New York of the United States of
America for the Southern District of New York, and irrevocably submits to such

undersigned will promptly notify the Company and the Underwriters and appoint a
substitute agent acceptable to each of the Company within 30 days and nothing in
this letter will affect the right of either party to serve process in any other
