| Re: Proposed Transfer of Certain Shares of Common Stock of North Shore Acquisition Corp. |
Dear Mr. Nelson:
Pursuant to that certain Stock Escrow Agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) dated November 30, 2007 by and among North Shore Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Escrow Agent”), Barry J. Gordon, Marc H. Klee, Robert Sroka, Arthur H. Goldberg, Harvey Granat and Alan J. Lowenstein (collectively, the “Initial Stockholders”), the Escrow Agent is currently holding in escrow the shares of the Company’s common stock owned by each of the Initial Stockholders in the amounts identified in Schedule A (the “Escrow Shares”).
The Initial Stockholders have executed an agreement (the “Put/Call Agreement”) of even date herewith pursuant to which they have agreed to transfer a portion of each Initial Stockholders’ Escrow Shares in the amounts identified in Schedule A (the “Transfer Shares”) in a private transaction to Sang-Chul Kim (the “Investor”), for no cash consideration upon the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination (as such term is defined in the Put/Call Agreement). The Escrow Shares and the Transfer Shares will remain in escrow with you pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, but after the consummation of a Business Combination, you will hold the Transfer Shares on behalf of the Investor and not us. As Escrow Agent, you acknowledge and agree not to enter into any control or other agreement relating to, or deliver possession of, the Transfer Shares to any third party, other than the Investor, that could create or perfect a security interest in the Transfer Shares.
Further, in connection with our agreement to transfer the Transfer Shares to the Investor, we are attaching executed stock powers with respect to the Transfer Shares. Please hold these stock powers in escrow, together with the Transfer Shares, and upon consummation of a Business Combination, kindly effect the transfer of the Transfer Shares to the Investor. The Investor is agreeing to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement and will deliver the appropriate stock powers to the Escrow Agent.

Very truly yours, | ||
