     This Agreement is made as of [                                        ], 2008 by and between Atlas Acquisition Holdings Corp. (the “Company”) and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trustee”).

     WHEREAS, the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended, No. 333-146368 (together with any registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, the “Registration Statement”), for its initial public offering of securities (the “IPO”) has been declared effective as of the date hereof by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Effective Date”); and

     WHEREAS, Lazard Capital Markets LLC and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated are acting as the representatives (the “Representatives”) of the underwriters in the IPO; and

     WHEREAS, as described in the Registration Statement, $192,245,000 (or $221,195,000 if the over-allotment option is exercised in full) of the proceeds from this offering, plus the $5,800,000 the Company will receive from the sale of the insider warrants, will be delivered to the Trustee to be deposited and held in a trust account for the benefit of the Company and the holders of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001, issued in the IPO. The amount to be delivered to the Trustee will be referred to herein as the “Property,” the stockholders for whose benefit the Trustee shall hold the Property will be referred to as the “Public Stockholders,” and the Public Stockholders and the Company will be referred to together as the “Beneficiaries”); and

     WHEREAS, a portion of the Property consists of $7,000,000 (or $8,050,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full) attributable to the underwriters’ deferred discounts and commissions which the Representatives have agreed to deposit in the Trust Account (as defined below) and which will be paid from the Trust Account to the underwriters upon the consummation of a business combination (as such term is defined in the Registration Statement, hereinafter a “Business Combination”); and

     WHEREAS, the Company and the Trustee desire to enter into this Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions pursuant to which the Trustee shall hold the Property.

     IT IS AGREED:

     1. Agreements and Covenants of Trustee. The Trustee hereby agrees and covenants to:

          (b) Manage, supervise, and administer the Trust Account subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein;

          (c) In a timely manner, upon the written instruction of the Company, invest and reinvest the Property in “government securities,” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), with a maturity of 180 days or less, or in any open ended investment company registered under the 1940 Act selected by the Company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of paragraphs (c)(2), (c)(3), and (c)(4) under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the 1940 Act, as determined by the Company;

          (d) Collect and receive, when due, all principal and income arising from the Property, which income, net of (i) taxes and (ii) periodic payments up to $3,500,000 made to the Company to fund its working capital requirements, shall become part of the “Property,” as such term is used herein;

          (e) Notify the Company of all communications received by it with respect to any Property requiring action by the Company;

          (i) Commence liquidation of the Trust Account only upon receipt of and only in accordance with the terms of a letter (the “Termination Letter”), in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as either Exhibit A or Exhibit B, signed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer or other authorized officer, 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; provided, however, that in the event that a Termination Letter has not been received by the Trustee by the 24-month anniversary of the prospectus date (“Last Date”), the Trust Account shall be liquidated in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Termination Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B and distributed to the stockholders of record on the Last Date. In all cases, the Trustee shall provide the Representatives with a copy of any Termination Letters and/or any other correspondence that it receives with respect to any proposed withdrawal from the Trust Account promptly after it receives the same. The provisions of this Section 1(i) may not be modified, amended, or deleted under any circumstances.

     2. Limited Distributions of Income From Trust Account.

          (a) If there is any income or other tax obligation relating to the income from the Property in the Trust Account as determined by the Company, then, at the written instruction of the Company, which may be given from time to time in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit C, the Trustee shall disburse to the Company by wire transfer, out of the Property in the Trust Account, the amount indicated by the Company as required to pay income taxes;

In addition, except with respect to its duties under Sections 1(j), 2(a), and 2(b) above, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on, and

shall be protected in relying on, any verbal or telephonic advice or instruction which it in good faith believes to be given by any one of the persons authorized above to give written instructions, provided that the Company shall promptly confirm such instructions in writing;

          (b) Hold the Trustee harmless and indemnify the Trustee from and against, any and all expenses, including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements, or loss suffered by the Trustee in connection with any action, suit, or other proceeding brought against the Trustee involving any claim, or in connection with any claim or demand which in any way arises out 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 Section, 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. The Company may participate in such action with its own counsel;

          (c) Pay the Trustee an initial acceptance fee, an annual fee, and a transaction processing fee for each disbursement made pursuant to Sections 2(a) and 2(b) as set forth on Schedule A hereto, which fees shall be subject to modification by the parties from time to time. It is expressly understood that the Property shall not be used to pay such fees and further agreed that said transaction processing fees shall be deducted by the Trustee from the disbursements made to the Company pursuant to Section 2(b). The Company shall pay the Trustee the initial acceptance fee and first year’s fee at the consummation of the IPO and thereafter on the anniversary of the Effective Date. The Trustee shall refund to the Company the annual fee (on a pro rata basis) with respect to any period after the liquidation of the Trust Fund.

          (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 written 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;

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;

          (g) Verify the correctness of the information set forth in the Registration Statement or to confirm or assure that any acquisition made by the Company or any other action taken by it is as contemplated by the Registration Statement;

     5. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate as follows:

          (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 principals that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. 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. The parties hereby waive any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenience forum.

          (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 Representatives. Any other change, waiver, amendment, or modification to this Agreement shall be subject to approval by a majority of the Public Stockholders. 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) This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each one of which shall constitute an original, and together shall constitute but one instrument.
