Purchaser Warrants to the Purchaser, the Purchaser hereby represents and
warrants to the Company (which representations and warranties shall survive the
Closing Date) that:

 

A.  Organization
and Requisite Authority.  The
Purchaser is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Purchaser
possesses all requisite power and authority necessary to carry out the

No Breach.

 

(i)            This Agreement
constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in
accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent
conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general applicability
relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equitable principles
(whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law).

 

 

(ii)           The execution and
delivery by the Purchaser of this Agreement and the fulfillment of and
compliance with the terms hereof by the Purchaser does not and shall not as of
the Closing Date conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions
or provisions of the organizational documents of the Purchaser or any other
agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which the Purchaser is
subject.

 

C.  Investment
Representations.

 

(i)            The Purchaser is
acquiring the Purchaser Warrants and, upon exercise of the Purchaser Warrants,
the Shares issuable upon such exercise (collectively, the “Securities”) for its
own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view towards, or for
resale in connection with, any public sale or distribution thereof.

 

(ii)           The Purchaser is an
“accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of
Regulation D.

 

(iii)          The Purchaser
understands that the Securities are being offered and will be sold to it in
reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the
United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying
upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Purchaser’s compliance with, the
representations and warranties of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to
determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the
Purchaser to acquire such Securities.

 

(iv)          The Purchaser did
not decide to enter into this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation
or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

(v)           The Purchaser has
been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and
operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the
Securities which have been requested by the Purchaser. The Purchaser has been
afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the executive officers and
directors of the Company. The Purchaser understands that its investment in the
Securities involves a high degree of risk and it has sought such accounting,
legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed
investment decision with respect to the acquisition of the Securities.

 

(vi)          The Purchaser
understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other
government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or
endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment
in the Securities by the Purchaser nor have such authorities passed upon or
endorsed the merits of the offering of the Securities.

 

(vii)         The Purchaser
understands that: (a) the Securities have not been and are not being
registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not
be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (1) subsequently
registered thereunder or (2) sold in reliance on an exemption therefrom;
and (b) except as specifically set forth in the Registration Rights
Agreement, neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to
register the Securities under the Securities Act or any state securities laws
or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. In this
regard, the Purchaser understands that the Securities and Exchange Commission
has taken the position that promoters or affiliates of a blank check company
and their transferees, both before and after a Business Combination, are deemed
to be “underwriters” under the Securities Act when reselling the securities of
a blank check company. Based on that position, Rule 144 adopted pursuant
to the Securities Act would not be available for resale transactions of the
Securities despite technical compliance with the requirements of such Rule, and
the Securities can be resold only through a registered offering or in reliance
upon another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

 

(viii)        The Purchaser has
such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, knows of the
high degree of risk associated with investments in the securities of companies
in the development

 

 

stage such as the Company, is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities
and is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities in the
amount contemplated hereunder for an indefinite period of time. The Purchaser
has adequate means of providing for it or his/her current financial needs and
contingencies and will have no current or anticipated future needs for
liquidity which would be jeopardized by the investment in the Securities. The
Purchaser can afford a complete loss of its or his investment in the
Securities.

of the Purchaser to purchase and pay for the Purchaser Warrants is subject to
the fulfillment, on or before the Closing Date, of each of the following

prohibits the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement or the Warrant Agreement.

does not occur prior to such date.

Section 8.  Definitions.

 

Terms used but
not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning assigned to such
terms in the Registration Statement.

 

Section 9.  Transfer and Redemption Restrictions.

 

A.  In addition to the transfer restrictions set
forth in Section 3, the Purchaser agrees that it shall not sell or
transfer the Purchaser Warrants or any underlying Shares until the expiration
of 90 days from the date on which the Company consummates its initial Business
Combination, meeting the requirements to be set forth in a Registration
Statement on Form S-1, File No.333-147645, and prospectus declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, relating to the Public
Offering (the “Registration
Statement”) and acknowledges that the certificates for the
Purchaser Warrants and the Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Purchaser
Warrants shall contain a legend, indicating, among other things, such
restriction on transferability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser
may transfer the Purchaser Warrants or any underlying shares: (i) to the
Company’s officers or directors, any affiliates or family members of any of the
Company’s officers or directors or any affiliates of the Purchaser; (ii) by
virtue of the laws of the state of Delaware or the Purchaser’s limited
partnership agreement upon dissolution of the Purchaser; (iii) in the
event of the Company’s liquidation prior to its completion of a Business
Combination; or (iv) the consummation of a liquidation, 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 consummation of
a Business Combination (the “Permitted Transferes”). The Permitted Transferees will
be subject to the same transfer restrictions set forth in this Section 9A.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Business Combination” means a business
combination with one or more target businesses that have an aggregate fair
market value of at least 80% of the initial amount held in the Trust Account
(excluding the amount held in the Trust Account representing the underwriters’
deferred commission) and the term “Trust Account” means the trust account into
which a portion of the net proceeds of the Company’s Public Offering (as
described in the Registration Statement) will be deposited. The Purchaser
Warrants are (i) not subject to redemption, (ii) may be exercised on
a “cashless” basis if held by a Company officer, director or advisory board
member or their permitted assigns and (iii) may not be sold, assigned or
transferred prior to the 90th day following the consummation of a
business combination. The holder of the Purchaser Warrants will not have any
rights to any liquidation distributions with respect to the shares underlying
such insider warrants in the event we fail to consummate a business
combination, in which event the insider warrants will expire worthless. No commissions,
fees or other compensation will be payable in connection herewith.

 

B.  Each of the Company and the Purchaser hereby
acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding a call for redemption of the
Purchaser Warrants by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Warrant
Agreement, no Purchaser Warrants held by the Purchaser or any of its Permitted
Transferees at the time of such call for redemption shall be redeemable by the
Company.

 

Section 10.  Miscellaneous.

 

A.  Successors
and Assigns.  Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, all covenants and agreements contained in
this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto shall bind and
inure to the benefit of the respective successors of the parties hereto whether
so expressed or not. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary
herein, the parties may not assign this Agreement, other than assignments by
the Purchaser to affiliates thereof.

 

B.  Severability.  Whenever possible, each provision of this
Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid
under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of this Agreement.

 

 

C.  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed simultaneously
in two or more counterparts, none of which need contain the signatures of more
than one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one
and the same agreement.

 

D.  Descriptive
Headings; Interpretation.  The
descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do
not constitute a substantive part of this Agreement. The use of the word “including”
in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than by limitation.

 

E.  Governing
Law.  This Agreement shall be
deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of Delaware and for
all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the
State of Delaware.

 

F.  Amendments.  This letter agreement may not be amended,
modified or waived as to any particular provision, except by a written
instrument executed by all parties hereto.

 

IN WITNESS
WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement.

Section 8. 
Definitions.

Section 9. 
Transfer and Redemption Restrictions.

 

A.  In addition to the transfer restrictions set
forth in Section 3, the Purchaser agrees that it shall not sell or
transfer the Purchaser Warrants or any underlying Shares until the expiration
of 90 days from the date on which the Company consummates its initial
Business Combination, meeting the requirements to be set forth in a
Registration Statement on Form S-1, File No.333-147645, and prospectus
declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, relating to the
Public Offering (the “Registration
Statement”) and acknowledges that the certificates for the
Purchaser Warrants and the Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Purchaser
Warrants shall contain a legend, indicating, among other things, such
restriction on transferability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser
may transfer the Purchaser Warrants or any underlying shares: (i) to the
Company’s officers or directors, any affiliates or family members of any of the
Company’s officers or directors or any affiliates of the Purchaser; (ii) by
virtue of the laws of the state of Delaware or the Purchaser’s limited
partnership agreement upon dissolution of the Purchaser; (iii) in the
event of the Company’s liquidation prior to its completion of a Business Combination;
or (iv) the consummation of a liquidation, 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 consummation of a Business
Combination (the “Permitted
Transferes”). The Permitted Transferees will be subject to the
same transfer restrictions set forth in this Section 9A. For purposes of
this Agreement, the term “Business
Combination” means a business combination with one or more
target businesses that have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of
the initial amount held in the Trust Account (excluding the amount held in the
Trust Account representing the underwriters’ deferred commission) and the term “Trust Account” means
the trust account into which a portion of the net proceeds of the Company’s
Public Offering (as described in the Registration Statement) will be deposited.
The Purchaser Warrants are (i) not subject to redemption, (ii) may be
exercised on a “cashless” basis if held by a Company officer, director or
advisory board member or their permitted assigns and (iii) may not be
sold, assigned or transferred prior to the 90th day following the
consummation of a business combination. The holder of the Purchaser Warrants
will not have any rights to any liquidation distributions with respect to the
shares underlying such insider warrants in the event we fail to consummate a
business combination, in which event the insider warrants will expire
worthless. No commissions, fees or other compensation will be payable in
connection herewith.

 

B.  Each of the Company and the Purchaser hereby
acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding a call for redemption of the
Purchaser Warrants by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Warrant
Agreement, no Purchaser Warrants held by the Purchaser or any of its Permitted
Transferees at the time of such call for redemption shall be redeemable by the
Company.

 

Section 10. 
Miscellaneous.

 

A.  Successors
and Assigns.  Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, all covenants and agreements contained in
this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto shall bind and
inure to the benefit of the respective successors of the parties hereto whether
so expressed or not. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary
herein, the parties may not assign this Agreement, other than assignments by
the Purchaser to affiliates thereof.

 

B.  Severability.  Whenever possible, each provision of this
Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid
under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of this Agreement.

 

 

C.  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed simultaneously
in two or more counterparts, none of which need contain the signatures of more than
one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and
the same agreement.

 

D.  Descriptive
Headings; Interpretation.  The
descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do
not constitute a substantive part of this Agreement. The use of the word “including”
in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than by limitation.

 

E.  Governing
Law.  This Agreement shall be
deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of Delaware and for
all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the
State of Delaware.

 

F.  Amendments.  This letter agreement may not be amended,
modified or waived as to any particular provision, except by a written
instrument executed by all parties hereto.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the
parties hereto have executed this Agreement.
