Re: Initial Public Offering

Gentlemen:

This letter is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) entered into by and between Kanders Acquisition Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as Representative (the “Representative”) of the several underwriters named in Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriters”), relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the “IPO”) 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 exercisable for one share of Common Stock (each, a “Warrant”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 16 hereof.

In order to induce the Company and the Underwriters to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the IPO, and in recognition of the benefit that such IPO will confer upon the undersigned as a stockholder of the Company, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees with the Company as follows:

1. If the Company solicits approval of its stockholders of a Business Combination, the undersigned will (i) vote all shares of Founder’s Common Stock beneficially owned by him in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by Public Stockholders and in favor of an amendment to the Company’s Amended & Restated Certificate of Incorporation to provide for the Company’s perpetual existence in connection with such Business Combination and (ii) vote all other shares of the Company’s Common Stock that may be acquired by him in the IPO or thereafter in favor of such Business Combination and in favor of an amendment to the Company’s Amended & Restated Certificate of Incorporation to provide for the Company’s perpetual existence in connection with such Business Combination.

2. In the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 24 months after the date of the final prospectus (the “Prospectus”) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the IPO, the undersigned will, as promptly as possible, take all action reasonably required to be taken by the undersigned to (i) cause the Trust Account to be liquidated and distributed to the Public Stockholders and (ii) 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 Account and any remaining net assets of the Company as a result of such liquidation (“Claim”) with respect to his shares of Founder’s Common Stock 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 Account for any reason whatsoever; provided, however, that in the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination and the Trust Account is liquidated and distributed, nothing herein shall prevent the undersigned from participating in the Trust Account pro rata with the Public Stockholders with respect to any IPO Shares purchased by the undersigned as part of the IPO or in the aftermarket. The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that there will be no distribution from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder’s Warrants, all rights of which will terminate on the Company’s liquidation.

3. To the extent that the Underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option (as described in the Prospectus) to purchase an additional 6,000,000 Units of the Company or, in the event that the size of the IPO is increased or decreased, such number of units resulting from an increase or decrease in the number of units that the Underwriters can purchase pursuant to their over-allotment option (as applicable, the “Number of Over-Allotment Units”), the undersigned agrees that he shall return to the Company for cancellation, at no cost, such number of Founder Units held by the undersigned determined by multiplying (a) the product of (i) the aggregate number of Founder’s Units subject to forfeiture as set forth in the Prospectus multiplied by (ii) a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is the number of Founder’s Units held by the undersigned and (y) the denominator of which is the total number of outstanding Founder’s Units, by (b) a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is the Number of Over-Allotment Units minus the number of Units purchased by the Underwriters upon the exercise of their over-allotment option, and (ii) the denominator of which is the Number of Over-Allotment Units.

4. The Board of Directors of the Company has adopted resolutions (“Resolutions”) renouncing, in accordance with Delaware law, any interest or expectancy of the Company to be presented any business opportunity that comes to the attention of an officer or director of the Company other than a business combination opportunity to acquire a privately held operating entity, if, and only if, (i) such entity has a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (excluding deferred underwriting discounts and commissions) and the opportunity is to acquire substantially all of the assets or 50.1% or more of the voting securities of such entity or (ii) the opportunity to acquire such entity is presented by a third party to such officer or director expressly for consideration by the Company. With respect to all business opportunities, including those described in clause (i) above, but excluding those described in clause (ii)

2

above, the obligation of the undersigned to present a business opportunity to the Company which may be reasonably required to be presented to the Company under Delaware law is subject to any pre-existing fiduciary or other obligations the undersigned may owe to another entity. Neither this Section 4 nor the Resolutions may be amended or rescinded in any way except upon prior approval by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock.

5.         (a) The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Company will not consummate any Business Combination which involves a company or individual that is affiliated with any of the Insiders or the Company unless the Company obtains an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) reasonably acceptable to the Representative that the business combination is fair to the Public Stockholders from a financial point of view.

(b) The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that, if (i) the Company’s Board of Directors is not able to independently determine that a target business has a sufficient fair market value to meet the threshold criterion to consummate a Business Combination (as described in the Prospectus) or (ii) the Company is acquiring a target business that is an affiliate of an officer or director of the Company or Kanders & Company, Inc. (the “Related Party”), the Company shall obtain an opinion from an unaffiliated investment banking firm that is a member of FINRA as to the fair market value of the target business.

6. Neither the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned, nor any affiliate of the undersigned will be entitled to receive and will not accept any compensation from any person or entity for services rendered to the Company prior to or in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination; provided, however, that the undersigned shall be entitled to reasonable reimbursement from the Company for his out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with seeking and consummating a Business Combination; provided, further, however, that to the extent such out-of-pocket expenses exceed the $100,000 of available proceeds not deposited in the Trust Account and interest income of up to $5.5 million on the balance in the Trust Account (subject to adjustment in the event the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option), such out-of-pocket expenses would not be reimbursed by the Company unless it consummates an initial business combination. The Company’s Audit Committee will review and approve all payments made to the Related Party or the Company’s officers and directors and their respective affiliates, and any payments made to members of the Company’s Audit Committee will be reviewed and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, with any interested directors abstaining from such review and approval.

7. 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 from any person or entity in the event the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned or any affiliate of the undersigned originates a Business Combination.

The undersigned acknowledges that the certificates for such Founder’s Units shall contain a legend indicating such restriction on transferability.
