Board, and complete the liquidation of the Trust Account and distribute the Property in the Trust Account only as directed in the Termination Letter and the other documents referred to therein. 
  
 2. Limited Distributions of Income on Property. 
  
 (a) Upon receipt by the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate signed by
the Co-Chief Executive Officer of the Company certifying as true, accurate and complete a copy of any tax return required to be filed on behalf of the Trust Account in respect of income earned on the Property held therein, the Trustee shall deliver
to the Company for submission to the appropriate taxing authority a check made payable to the order of such taxing authority in the amount required to pay such taxes; provided, however, that in no event shall the aggregate amount of all checks

 (b) Hold the Trustee harmless and indemnify the Trustee from and against, any and all expenses, including

of or relates to this Agreement, the services of the Trustee hereunder, or the Property or any income earned from investment of the Property, except for expenses and losses resulting from the Trustee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Promptly after the receipt by the Trustee of notice of demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, pursuant to which the Trustee intends to seek indemnification under this paragraph, it shall notify the Company in writing
of such claim (hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnified Claim”). The Trustee shall have the right to conduct and manage the defense against such Indemnified Claim, provided, that the Trustee shall obtain the consent of the Company with

 (b) Institute any proceeding for the collection of any principal and income arising from, or institute, appear in or defend
any proceeding of any kind with respect to, any of the Property unless and until it shall have received instructions from the Company given as provided herein to do so and the Company shall have advanced or guaranteed to it funds sufficient to pay
any expenses incident thereto; 
  
 (c) Change the investment of
any Property, other than in compliance with paragraph 1(c); 
  
 (d) Refund any depreciation in principal of any Property;

shall not be continuing unless provided otherwise in such designation, or unless the Company shall have delivered a written revocation of such authority to the Trustee; 
  
 (f) The other parties hereto or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by it to be
taken or omitted, in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate,
opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Trustee), statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and
acceptability of any information therein contained) which is believed by the Trustee, in good faith, to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Trustee shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver,
modification, termination or rescission of this agreement or any of the terms hereof, unless evidenced by a written instrument delivered to the Trustee signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Trustee are affected,
unless it shall give its prior written consent thereto;

understood that the Property shall not be used to pay any such taxes and that such taxes, if any, shall be paid by the Company from funds not held in the Trust Account). 
  
 (i) Verify calculations, qualify or otherwise approve Company requests for distributions pursuant to paragraph 2(b).

  
 5. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate as follows: 
  
 (a) If the Trustee gives written notice to the Company that it desires to
resign under this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to locate a successor trustee. At such time that the Company notifies the Trustee that a successor trustee has been appointed by the Company and has agreed to become subject
to the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee shall transfer the management of the Trust Account to the successor trustee, including but not limited to the transfer of copies of the reports and statements relating to the Trust Account, whereupon this
Agreement shall terminate; provided, however, that, in the event that the Company does not locate a successor trustee within ninety days of receipt of the resignation notice from the Trustee, the Trustee may submit an application to have the
Property deposited with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and upon such deposit, the Trustee shall be immune from any liability whatsoever; 
  
 (b) At such time that the Trustee has completed the liquidation of the Trust Account in accordance with the provisions of
paragraph 1(i) hereof, and distributed the Property in accordance with the provisions of the Termination Letter, this Agreement shall terminate except with respect to Paragraph 2(b); or 
  
 (c) On such date after

from the Trust Account. Upon receipt of written instructions, the Trustee will confirm such instructions with an Authorized Individual at an Authorized Telephone Number listed on the attached Exhibit C. The Company and the Trustee will each restrict
access to confidential information relating to such security procedures to authorized persons. Each party must notify the other party immediately if it has reason to believe unauthorized persons may have obtained access to such information, or of
any change in its authorized personnel. In executing funds transfers, the Trustee will rely upon account numbers or other identifying numbers of a beneficiary, beneficiary’s bank or intermediary bank, rather than names. The Trustee shall not be
liable for any loss, liability or expense resulting from any error in an account number or other identifying number, provided it has accurately transmitted the numbers provided. 
  
 (b) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York,
without giving effect to conflict of laws. It may be executed in several counterparts, each one of which shall constitute an original, and together shall constitute but one instrument. 
  
 (c) This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
hereof. This Agreement or any provision hereof may only be changed, amended or modified by a writing signed by each of the parties hereto; provided, however, that no such change, amendment or modification may be made without the prior written
consent of the Representative. As to any claim, cross-claim or counterclaim in any way relating to this Agreement, each party waives the right to trial by jury. 
  

(d) The parties hereto consent to the jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court located in the City of New York for purposes of resolving
any disputes hereunder.

 SHARE ESCROW AGREEMENT 
  
 SHARE ESCROW AGREEMENT, dated as of
                    , 2005 (“Agreement”), by and among SHANGHAI CENTURY ACQUISITION CORPORATION., a corporation organized under the
laws of the Cayman Islands (“Company”), FRANKLIN D. CHU, ANTHONY KAI YIU LO, RONALD JOSEPH ARCULLI, HUMPHREY P. POLANEN and RAYMOND CH’IEN (collectively “Initial Shareholders”) and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust
Company (“Escrow Agent”). 
  
 WHEREAS, the Company has
entered into an Underwriting Agreement, dated                     , 2005 (“Underwriting Agreement”), with I-Bankers Securities
Incorporated and [                    ] (collectively, the “Representatives”) acting as representatives of the several underwriters
(collectively, the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which, among other matters, the Underwriters will agree to purchase 12,500,000 units (“Units”) of the Company. Each Unit will consist of one ordinary share, $0.0005 par value, and
one Warrant, each Warrant to purchase one ordinary share, all as more fully described in the Company’s final Prospectus, dated
                    , 2005 (“Prospectus”) comprising part of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form F-1 (File No.
                    ) under the Securities Act of 1933, (together, the “Registration Statement”), which was declared effective on
                    , 2005 (“Effective Date”). 
  
 WHEREAS, the Initial Shareholders have agreed as a condition of the sale of the Units to deposit their ordinary shares of
the Company, as set forth opposite their respective names in Exhibit A attached hereto (collectively “Escrow Shares”), in escrow as hereinafter provided. 
  
 WHEREAS, the Company and the Initial Shareholders desire that the Escrow Agent accept the Escrow Shares, in escrow, to be
held and disbursed as hereinafter provided. 
  
 IT IS AGREED:

  
 1. Appointment of Escrow Agent. The Company and the Initial
Shareholders hereby appoint the Escrow Agent to act in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to act in accordance with and subject to such terms. 
  
 2. Deposit of Escrow Shares. On or before the Effective Date, each of the
Initial Shareholders shall deliver to the Escrow Agent certificates representing his respective Escrow Shares, to be held and disbursed subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each Initial Shareholder acknowledges that the certificate
representing his Escrow Shares is legended to reflect the deposit of such Escrow Shares under this Agreement. 
  
 3. Disbursement of the Escrow Shares. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Shares until the third anniversary of the Effective Date (“Escrow
Period”), on which date it shall, upon written instructions from each Initial Shareholder, disburse each of the Initial Shareholder’s Escrow Shares to such Initial Shareholder; provided, however, that if the Escrow Agent is notified by the
Company pursuant to Section 6.7 hereof that the Company is being liquidated at 

 any time during the Escrow Period, then the Escrow Agent shall promptly destroy the certificates representing the Escrow
Shares and; provided further, that if, after the Company consummates a Business Combination (as such term is defined in the Registration Statement), it (or the surviving entity) subsequently consummates a liquidation, stock exchange or other similar
transaction which results in all of the stockholders of such entity having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property, then the Escrow Agent will, upon receipt of a certificate, executed by the Co-Chief
Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the Company, in form reasonably acceptable to the Escrow Agent, that such transaction is then being consummated, release the Escrow Shares to the Initial Shareholders upon consummation of the
transaction so that they can similarly participate. The Escrow Agent shall have no further duties hereunder after the disbursement or destruction of the Escrow Shares in accordance with this Section 3. 
  
 4. Rights of Initial Shareholders in Escrow Shares. 
  
 4.1 Voting Rights as a Shareholder. Subject to the
terms of the Insider Letter described in Section 4.4 hereof and except as herein provided, the Initial Shareholders shall retain all of their rights as stockholders of the Company during the Escrow Period, including, without limitation, the
right to vote such shares. 
  
 4.2 Dividends
and Other Distributions in Respect of the Escrow Shares. During the Escrow Period, all dividends payable in cash with respect to the Escrow Shares shall be paid to the Initial Shareholders, but all dividends payable in securities or other
non-cash property (“Non-Cash Dividends”) shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent to hold in accordance with the terms hereof. As used herein, the term “Escrow Shares” shall be deemed to include the Non-Cash Dividends distributed
thereon, if any. 
  
 4.3 Restrictions on
Transfer. During the Escrow Period, no sale, transfer or other disposition may be made of any or all of the Escrow Shares except (i) by gift to a member of Initial Shareholder’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which
is an Initial Shareholder or a member of an Initial Shareholder’s immediate family, (ii) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death of any Initial Shareholder, (iii) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order,
or (iv) pursuant to a transfer of record ownership whereby there is no change in beneficial ownership; provided, however, that such permissive transfers may be implemented only upon the respective transferee’s written agreement to be bound
by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and of the Insider Letter signed by the Initial Shareholder transferring the Escrow Shares. During the Escrow Period, the Initial Shareholders shall not pledge or grant a security interest in the Escrow
Shares or grant a security interest in their rights under this Agreement. 
  
 4.4 Insider Letters. Each of the Initial Shareholders has executed a letter agreement with the Representatives and the Company, dated as indicated on Exhibit A hereto, and which is filed as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement (“Insider Letter”), respecting the rights and obligations of such Initial Shareholder in certain events, including but not limited to the liquidation of the Company. 

 5. Concerning the Escrow Agent. 
  
 5.1 Good Faith Reliance. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it
in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment, and may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Escrow Agent),
statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained) which is believed by
the Escrow Agent to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement unless evidenced by a
writing delivered to the Escrow Agent signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Escrow Agent are affected, unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto. 
  
 5.2 Indemnification. The Escrow Agent shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and against any expenses, including counsel fees and disbursements, or loss suffered by the Escrow Agent in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding involving any claim which in any way,
directly or indirectly, arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the services of the Escrow Agent hereunder, or the Escrow Shares held by it hereunder, other than expenses or losses arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
Escrow Agent. Promptly after the receipt by the Escrow Agent of notice of any demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the Escrow Agent shall notify the other parties hereto in writing. In the event of the receipt of
such notice, the Escrow Agent, in its sole discretion, may commence an action in the nature of interpleader in an appropriate court to determine ownership or disposition of the Escrow Shares or it may deposit the Escrow Shares with the clerk of any
appropriate court or it may retain the Escrow Shares pending receipt of a final, non-appealable order of a court having jurisdiction over all of the parties hereto directing to whom and under what circumstances the Escrow Shares are to be disbursed
and delivered. The provisions of this Section 5.2 shall survive in the event the Escrow Agent resigns or is discharged pursuant to Sections 5.5 or 5.6 below. 
  
 5.3 Compensation. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to reasonable compensation from the Company for
all services rendered by it hereunder. The Escrow Agent shall also be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for all expenses paid or incurred by it in the administration of its duties hereunder including, but not limited to, all counsel,
advisors’ and agents’ fees and disbursements and all taxes or other governmental charges. 
  
 5.4 Further Assurances. From time to time on and after the date hereof, the Company and the Initial Shareholders shall deliver or
cause to be delivered to the Escrow Agent such further documents and instruments and shall do or cause to be done such further acts as the Escrow Agent shall reasonably request to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of this
Agreement, to evidence compliance herewith or to assure itself that it is protected in acting hereunder. 

 5.5 Resignation. The Escrow Agent may resign at any time and be discharged from
its duties as escrow agent hereunder by its giving the other parties hereto written notice and such resignation shall become effective as hereinafter provided. Such resignation shall become effective at such time that the Escrow Agent shall turn
over to a successor escrow agent appointed by the Company, the Escrow Shares held hereunder. If no new escrow agent is so appointed within the 60 day period following the giving of such notice of resignation, the Escrow Agent may deposit the Escrow
Shares with any court it reasonably deems appropriate. 
  
 5.6 Discharge of Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall resign and be discharged from its duties as escrow agent hereunder if so requested in writing at any time by the other parties hereto, jointly, provided, however, that such
resignation shall become effective only upon acceptance of appointment by a successor escrow agent as provided in Section 5.5. 
  
 5.7 Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Escrow Agent shall not be relieved from liability hereunder for
its own gross negligence or its own willful misconduct.

Agreement shall for all purposes be deemed to be made under and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
