Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned, Shine Media Acquisition Corp, a Delaware corporation (“Company”), hereby confirms its agreement with Merriman Curhan Ford & Co. (being referred to herein variously as “you,” “Merriman Curhan” or the “Representative”) and with the other underwriters named on Schedule I hereto for which you are acting as Representative (the Representative and the other Underwriters being collectively called the “Underwriters” or, individually, an “Underwriter”) as follows:

1. Purchase and Sale of Securities.

1.1 Firm Securities.

1.1.1 Purchase of Firm Units. On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company agrees to issue and sell, severally and not jointly, to the several Underwriters, an aggregate of 6,000,000 units (“Firm Units”) of the Company, at a purchase price of $5.79 per Firm Unit (subject to adjustment in respect of the Deferred Compensation which may be paid to the Underwriters in accordance with Section 1.1.3 hereof) (the “Purchase Price”). The Underwriters, severally and not jointly, agree to purchase from the Company the number of Firm Units set forth opposite their respective names on Schedule I attached hereto and made a part hereof at the Purchase Price. The Firm Units are to be offered initially to the public (“Offering”) at the offering price of $6.00 per Firm Unit. Each Firm Unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), and two warrants (“Warrant(s)”). The shares of Common Stock and the Warrants included in the Firm Units will not be separately transferable until the earlier to occur of (i) the expiration of the Underwriters’ option to purchase up to 900,000 additional units to cover over-allotments or (ii) 20 trading days after the exercise in full by the Underwriters of such option (the “Separation Date”), but in no event will the Representative allow separate trading before an audited balance sheet has been prepared reflecting receipt by the Company of the gross proceeds of the Offering and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) with a Current Report on Form 8-K. Each Warrant entitles its holder to exercise it to purchase one share of Common Stock for $5.00 during the period commencing on the later of the consummation by the Company of its “Business Combination” or one year from the effective date (“Effective Date”) of the Registration Statement (as defined in Section 2.1.1 hereof) and terminating on the four-year anniversary of the Effective Date. “Business Combination” shall mean the acquisition by the Company, whether by merger, capital stock exchange, asset or stock acquisition or other similar type of transaction or a combination of the foregoing, of one or more companies operating in the media and advertising industry in China (as described more fully in the Registration Statement).

1.1.2 Payment and Delivery. Delivery and payment for the Firm Units shall be made at 1:00 P.M., New York time, on the third business day following the date of this Agreement (or the fourth business day following the date of this Agreement, if this Agreement is executed after 4:30 p.m.;”) or at such earlier time as shall be agreed upon by the Representative and the Company at the offices of the Representative or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representative and the Company (the date and time of execution of this Agreement shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Execution Time). The hour and date of delivery and payment for the Firm Units are called the “Closing Date.” Payment for the Firm Units shall be made on the Closing Date at the Representative’s election by wire transfer in Federal (same day) funds or by certified or bank cashier’s check(s) in New York Clearing House funds, payable as follows: $33,117,500 of the proceeds received by the Company for the Firm Units shall be deposited in the trust account (“Trust Account”) established by the Company for the benefit of the public stockholders as described in the Registration Statement, $900,000 of which is deposited in respect of the Deferred Compensation (as defined below), and $1,265,000, less the amount owed by the Company to the Representative for all accountable expenses owed thereto incident to the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement as set forth in Section 3.7 hereof, shall be paid to the order of the Company to a bank account established by the Company, against delivery to you of certificates (in form and substance satisfactory to the Underwriters) representing the Firm Units (or through the facilities of the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)) for the account of the Underwriters. Three hundred and sixty thousand dollars ($360,000) shall be deducted from the gross proceeds and retained by the Representative as a nonaccountable expense allowance pursuant to Section 3.8.2 hereof. The Firm Units shall be registered in such name or names and in such authorized denominations as the Representative may request in writing at least two full business days prior to the Closing Date. The Company will permit the Representative to examine and package the Firm Units for delivery, at least one full business day prior to the Closing Date. The Company shall not be obligated to sell or deliver the Firm Units except upon tender of payment by the Representative for all the Firm Units.

1.1.3 Deferred Compensation. Upon the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination, the Company will pay to the Underwriters (A) the deferred compensation deposited by the Underwriters into the Trust Account (the “Deferred Compensation”) in an amount equal to 2.5% of the gross proceeds (before giving effect to any discounts or commissions) from the sale of the Units (as defined in Section 1.2.1 hereof), or $0.15 per Unit, plus interest earned on such amount (net of payment or withholdings in respect of taxes payable on such interest), less (B) (i) the aggregate amount attributable to the Deferred Compensation that is paid from the Trust Account to holders of IPO Shares (as defined in Section 7.6 hereof) who convert their shares to cash in connection with the Business Combination Vote (as defined in Section 7.6 hereof), equal to $0.15 for each share converted, and (ii) the interest earned on such aggregate amount (net of payment or withholdings in respect of taxes payable on such interest). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no more than $75,000 (or, if the Over-Allotment Option is exercised, no more than the interest that would be earned on a principal amount equal to 2.5% of the gross proceeds, before giving effect to any discounts or commissions, compounded continuously at an interest rate of 4% for two years) may be paid to the Underwriters in respect of interest earned on the Deferred Compensation. Payment of the Deferred Compensation will be made out of the proceeds of this Offering held in the Trust Account at the consummation of the Business Combination. If the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within the required time period set forth in the Prospectus, the Deferred Compensation will not be paid to the Underwriters; any proceeds held in the Trust Account that would have been paid to the Underwriters in respect of the Deferred Compensation and any interest earned thereon will, instead, be included in the liquidation distribution of the proceeds held in the Trust Account made to the holders of the IPO Shares.

1.2 Over-Allotment Option.

1.2.1 Option Units. For the purposes of covering any over-allotments in connection with the distribution and sale of the Firm Units, the Underwriters are hereby granted, severally and not jointly, an option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 units from the Company (“Over-allotment Option”). Such additional 900,000 units are hereinafter referred to as “Option Units.” The Firm Units and the Option Units are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Units,” and the Units, the shares of Common Stock and the Warrants included in the Units and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Public Securities.” The purchase price to be paid for the Option Units will be the same price per Option Unit as the price per Firm Unit set forth in Section 1.1.1 hereof.

1.2.2 Exercise of Option. The Over-allotment Option granted pursuant to Section 1.2.1 hereof may be exercised by the Representative as to all (at any time) or any part (from time to time) of the Option Units within 45 days after the Effective Date. The Underwriters will not be under any obligation to purchase any Option Units prior to the exercise of the Over-allotment Option. The Over-allotment Option granted hereby may be exercised by the giving of oral notice to the Company by the Representative, which must be confirmed in writing by overnight mail or facsimile transmission setting forth the number of Option Units to be purchased and the date and time for delivery of and payment for the Option Units (the “Option Closing Date”), which will not be later than five full business days after the date of the notice or such other time as shall be agreed upon by the Company and the Representative, at the offices of the Representative or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Company and the Representative. Upon exercise of the Over-allotment Option, the Company will become obligated to convey to the Underwriters, and, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Underwriters will become obligated to purchase, the number of Option Units specified in such notice.

1.2.3 Payment and Delivery. Payment for the Option Units shall be made on the Option Closing Date at the Representative’s election by wire transfer in Federal (same day) funds or by certified or bank cashier’s check(s) in New York Clearing House funds, payable to the Trust Account at the offices of the Representative or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representative and the Company upon delivery to you of certificates representing such securities (or through the facilities of DTC). The certificates representing the Option Units to be delivered will be in such denominations and registered in such names as the Representative requests not less than two full business days prior to the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, and will be made available to the Representative for inspection, checking and packaging at the aforesaid office of the Company’s transfer agent or correspondent not less than one full business day prior to such Closing Date.

1.3 Representative’s Purchase Option.

1.3.1 Purchase Option. The Company hereby agrees to issue and sell to the Representative (and/or its designees) on the Effective Date, for an aggregate purchase price of $100, an option (“Representative’s Purchase Option”) for the purchase of up to an aggregate of 360,000 units (“Representative’s Units”). Each of the Representative’s Units is identical to the Firm Units except that the Warrants included in the Representative’s Units (“Representative’s Warrants”) have an exercise price of $6.25 (125% of the exercise price of the Warrants included in the Units sold to the public). The Representative’s Purchase Option shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, commencing on the later of (i) one year from the Effective Date and (ii) the consummation of a Business Combination and expiring on the five-year anniversary of the Effective Date at an initial exercise price per Representative’s Unit of $7.50, which is equal to one hundred twenty five percent (125%) of the initial public offering price of a Unit. The Representative’s Purchase Option, the Representative’s Units, the Representative’s Warrants, the Common Stock included in the Representative’s Units and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Representative’s Warrants are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Representative’s Securities.” The Public Securities and the Representative’s Securities are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Securities.”

1.3.2 Payment and Delivery. Delivery and payment for the Representative’s Purchase Option shall be made on the Closing Date.

Subject to the conditions set forth below, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Underwriters, and each dealer selected by you that participates in the offer and sale of the Securities (each a “Selected Dealer”) and each of their respective directors, officers and employees and each person, if any, who controls any such Underwriter (“controlling person”) within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including but not limited to any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, whether arising out of any action between any of the Underwriters and the Company or between any of the Underwriters and any third party or otherwise) to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or any other statute or at common law or otherwise or under the laws of foreign countries, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in (i) any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (as from time to time each may be amended and supplemented); (ii) in any post effective amendment or amendments or any new registration statement and prospectus in which is included securities of the Company issued or issuable upon exercise of the Representative’s Purchase Option; or (iii) any application or other document or written communication (in this Section 5 collectively called “application”) executed by the Company or based upon written information furnished by the Company in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Securities under the securities laws thereof or filed with the Commission, any state securities commission or agency, Nasdaq or any securities exchange; or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, unless such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company with respect to an Underwriter by or on behalf of such Underwriter expressly for use in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or in any application, as the case may be. The Company agrees promptly to notify the Representative of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against the Company or any of its officers, directors or controlling persons in connection with the issue and sale of the Securities or in connection with the Registration Statement or Prospectus.

5.1.2 Procedure. If any action is brought against an Underwriter, a Selected Dealer or a controlling person in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Company pursuant to Section 5.1.1, such Underwriter or Selected Dealer shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the institution of such action and the Company shall assume the defense of such action, including the employment and fees of counsel (subject to the reasonable approval of such Underwriter or Selected Dealer, as the case may be) and payment of actual expenses; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Company from any liability it may have under Sections 5.1.1 or 5.1.2 hereof, except to the extent the Company has been materially prejudiced (through forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure and; provided further, that the failure to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party other than on account of Sections 5.1.1 or 5.1.2 hereof. Such Underwriter, Selected Dealer or controlling person shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Underwriter, Selected Dealer or controlling person unless (i) the employment of such counsel at the expense of the Company shall have been authorized in writing by the Company in connection with the defense of such action, or (ii) the Company shall not have employed counsel to take charge of the defense of such action, or (iii) such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from or additional to those available to the Company (in which case the Company shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which events the reasonable fees and expenses of not more than one additional firm of attorneys selected by the Underwriter, Selected Dealer and/or controlling person shall be borne by the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Underwriter, Selected Dealer or controlling person shall assume the defense of such action as provided above, the Company shall have the right to approve the terms of any settlement of such action which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

5.2 Indemnification of the Company. Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers and employees and agents who control the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the several Underwriters, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions made in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or in any application, in reliance upon, and in strict conformity with, written information furnished to the Company with respect to such Underwriter by or on behalf of the Underwriter expressly for use in such Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or in any such application. In case any action shall be brought against the Company or any other person so indemnified based on any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or any application, and in respect of which indemnity may be sought against any Underwriter, such Underwriter shall have the rights and duties given to the Company, and the Company and each other person so indemnified shall have the rights and duties given to the several Underwriters by the provisions of Section 5.1.2.

5.3 Contribution.

5.3.1 Contribution Rights. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution under the Act in any case in which (i) any person entitled to indemnification under this Section 5 makes claim for indemnification pursuant hereto but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 5 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise may be required on the part of any such person in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 5, then, and in each such case, the Company and the Underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by said indemnity agreement incurred by the Company and the Underwriters, as incurred, in such proportions that the Underwriters are responsible for that portion represented by the percentage that the underwriting discount appearing on the cover page of the Prospectus bears to the initial offering price appearing thereon and the Company is responsible for the balance; provided, that, no person guilty of a fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.3.1, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Public Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay in respect of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses. For purposes of this Section 5, each director, officer and employee of an Underwriter or the Company, as applicable, and each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter or the Company, as applicable, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Underwriters or the Company, as applicable.

5.3.2 Contribution Procedure. Within fifteen days after receipt by any party to this Agreement (or its representative) of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, such party will, if a claim for contribution in respect thereof is to be made against another party (“contributing party”), notify the contributing party of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the contributing party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any other party other than for contribution hereunder. In case any such action, suit or proceeding is brought against any party, and such party notifies a contributing party or its representative of the commencement thereof within the aforesaid fifteen days, the contributing party will be entitled to participate therein with the notifying party and any other contributing party similarly notified. Any such contributing party shall not be liable to any party seeking contribution on account of any settlement of any claim, action or proceeding effected by such party seeking contribution on account of any settlement of any claim, action or proceeding effected by such party seeking contribution without the written consent of such contributing party. The contribution provisions contained in this Section 5 are intended to supersede, to the extent permitted by law, any right to contribution under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise available. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 5.3 are several and not joint.

6. Default by an Underwriter.

6.1 Default Not Exceeding 10% of Firm Units or Option Units. If any Underwriter or Underwriters shall default in its or their obligations to purchase the Firm Units or the Option Units, if the over-allotment option is exercised, hereunder, and if the number of the Firm Units or Option Units with respect to which such default relates does not exceed in the aggregate 10% of the number of Firm Units or Option Units that all Underwriters have agreed to purchase hereunder, then such Firm Units or Option Units to which the default relates shall be purchased by the non-defaulting Underwriters in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder.

6.2 Default Exceeding 10% of Firm Units or Option Units. In the event that the default addressed in Section 6.1 above relates to more than 10% of the Firm Units or Option Units, you may in your discretion arrange for yourself or for another party or parties to purchase such Firm Units or Option Units to which such default relates on the terms contained herein. If within one business day after such default relating to more than 10% of the Firm Units or Option Units you do not arrange for the purchase of such Firm Units or Option Units, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of one business day within which to procure another party or parties reasonably satisfactory to you to purchase said Firm Units or Option Units on such terms. In the event that neither you nor the Company arrange for the purchase of the Firm Units or Option Units to which a default relates as provided in this Section 6, this Agreement will be terminated without liability on the part of the Company (except as provided in Sections 3.10 and 5 hereof) or the several Underwriters (except as provided in Section 5 hereof); provided, however, that if such default occurs with respect to the Option Units, this Agreement will not terminate as to the Firm Units; and provided further that nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the other several Underwriters and to the Company for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

6.3 Postponement of Closing Date. In the event that the Firm Units or Option Units to which the default relates are to be purchased by the non-defaulting Underwriters, or are to be purchased by another party or parties as aforesaid, you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date or Option Closing Date for a reasonable period, but not in any event exceeding five business days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any other documents and arrangements, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendment to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus that in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters may thereby be made necessary. The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall include any party substituted under this Section 6 with like effect as if it had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Securities.

7. Additional Covenants.

7.1 Additional Shares or Options. The Company hereby agrees that until the earlier of the consummation of a Business Combination or the distribution of the Trust Account referred to in Section 7.6 hereof, it shall not issue any shares of Common Stock or any options or other securities convertible into Common Stock, or any shares of Preferred Stock which participate in any manner in the Trust Account or which vote as a class with the Common Stock on a Business Combination.

7.2 Trust Account Waiver Acknowledgment. The Company hereby agrees that prior to commencing its due diligence investigation of any operating business which the Company seeks to acquire for its initial Business Combination (“Target Business”) or obtaining the services of any vendor, it will use its best efforts to cause the Target Business or vendor to execute a waiver letter substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any Target Business, vendor or other third party refuses to execute such a letter, the Company may nonetheless commence its due diligence investigations of such Target Business or obtain the services of any such vendor or third party if and only if the Company’s board of directors determines in good faith after due inquiry that the Company would be unable to obtain, on a reasonable basis, substantially similar services or opportunities from another entity willing to execute such a waiver.

7.3 Insider Letters and Stock Escrow Agreement. The Company shall not take any action or omit to take any action that would cause a breach of any of the Insider Letters executed between each Initial Stockholder and the Representative or the Stock Escrow Agreement executed between the Initial Stockholders and the Company and will not allow any amendments to, or waivers of any provisions of, such Insider Letters or Stock Escrow Agreement without the prior written consent of the Representative.

7.4 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. The Company shall not take any action or omit to take any action that would cause the Company to be in breach or violation of its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws. Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination or until the distribution of the Trust Account referred to in Section 7.6 hereof, the Company will not amend its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation without the prior written consent of the Representative.

7.5 Blue Sky Requirements. The Company shall provide counsel to the Representative with ten copies of all proxy information and all related material filed with the Commission in connection with a Business Combination concurrently with such filing with the Commission. In addition, the Company shall furnish any other state in which its initial public offering was registered, such information as may be requested by such state.

7.6 Acquisition/Distribution Procedure. The Company agrees: (i) that, prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, it will submit such transaction to the Company’s stockholders for their approval (“Business Combination Vote”) even if the nature of the acquisition is such as would not ordinarily require stockholder approval under applicable state law; and (ii) that, in the event that the Company does not effect a Business Combination within 18 months from the consummation of this Offering (subject to extension for an additional six-month period, as described in the Prospectus), the Company will be liquidated and will distribute to all holders of IPO Shares (as defined below) an aggregate sum equal to the Company’s “Liquidation Value.” The Company’s “Liquidation Value” shall mean the Company’s book value, as determined by the Company and approved by Goldstein Golub Kessler LLP. In no event, however, will the Company’s Liquidation Value be less than the Trust Account, inclusive of (i) the proceeds held in trust from this Offering and the sale of the Placement Units, (ii) the 2.5% of the proceeds held in the Trust Account representing the Deferred Compensation, and (iii) any interest (net of taxes payable) not released to the Company to fund its working capital, including any interest earned on the portion of the proceeds held in the Trust Account representing the Deferred Compensation. Only holders of IPO Shares shall be entitled to receive liquidating distributions and the Company shall pay no liquidating distributions with respect to any other shares of capital stock of the Company. With respect to the initial Business Combination Vote, the Company shall cause all of the Initial Stockholders to vote the shares of Common Stock owned by them immediately prior to this Offering, including the shares of Common Stock included in the Placement Units, in accordance with the vote of the holders of a majority of the IPO Shares present, in person or by proxy at a meeting of the Company’s stockholders called for such purpose. At the time the Company seeks approval of the initial Business Combination, the Company will offer each holder of the Company’s Common Stock issued in this Offering (the “IPO Shares”) the right to convert their IPO Shares at a per share conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) equal to (A) the amount in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the Business Combination Vote, inclusive of (x) the proceeds held in trust from this Offering and the sale of the Placement Units, (y) the 2.5% of the proceeds held in the Trust Account representing the Deferred Compensation, and (z) any interest (net of taxes payable) not released to the Company to fund its working capital, including any interest earned on the portion of the proceeds held in the Trust Account representing the Deferred Compensation, divided by (B) the total number of IPO Shares. If holders of less than 20% in interest of the Company’s IPO Shares vote against such approval of a Business Combination and elect to convert their IPO Shares, the Company may, but will not be required to, proceed with such Business Combination. If the Company elects to so proceed, it will convert shares, based upon the Conversion Price, from those holders of IPO Shares who affirmatively requested such conversion and who voted against the Business Combination. Only holders of IPO Shares shall be entitled to receive distributions from the Trust Account and the Company shall pay no distributions with respect to any other shares of capital stock of the Company. If holders of 20% or more in interest of the IPO Shares vote against approval of any potential Business Combination and elect to convert their IPO Shares, the Company will not proceed with such Business Combination and will not convert such shares.

7.7 Rule 419. The Company agrees that it will use its best efforts to prevent the Company from becoming subject to Rule 419 under the Act prior to the consummation of any Business Combination, including but not limited to using its best efforts to prevent any of the Company’s outstanding securities from being deemed to be a “penny stock” as defined in Rule 3a-51-1 under the Exchange Act during such period.

7.8 Presentation of Potential Target Businesses. The Company shall cause each of its officers and directors to agree that, in order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple affiliations, each such officer and director will present to the Company for its consideration, prior to presentation to any other person or company, any suitable opportunity to acquire a Target Business, until the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination, the distribution of the Trust Account or until such time as each such officer or director shall cease to be an officer or director of the Company, subject to any fiduciary obligations such officer or director might have as a result of a fiduciary relationship established prior to the establishment of a fiduciary relationship with the Company.

7.9 Target Net Assets. The Company agrees that the initial Target Business(es) in a Business Combination must have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the Company’s net assets at the time of such Business Combination. The fair market value of such business(es) must be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company based upon standards generally accepted by the financial community, such as actual and potential sales, earnings and cash flow and book value. If the Board of Directors of the Company is not able to independently determine that the Target Business(es) has a fair market value of at least 80% of the Company’s net assets at the time of such Business Combination, the Company will obtain an opinion from an unaffiliated, independent investment banking firm with respect to the satisfaction of such criteria. The Company is not required to obtain an opinion from an investment banking firm as to the fair market value of the Target Business(es) if the Company’s Board of Directors independently determines that the Target Business(es) has a sufficient fair market value.

8. Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. Except as the context otherwise requires, all representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to be representations, warranties and agreements at the Closing Dates and such representations, warranties and agreements of the Underwriters and Company, including the indemnity agreements contained in Section 5 hereof, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, the Company or any controlling person, and shall survive termination of this Agreement or the issuance and delivery of the Securities to the several Underwriters.

9. Effective Date of This Agreement and Termination Thereof.

9.1 Termination. You shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any time prior to any Closing Date, (i) if any domestic or international event or act or occurrence has materially disrupted, or in your opinion will in the immediate future materially disrupt, general securities markets in the United States; or (ii) if trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the Boston Stock Exchange or on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or successor trading market) shall have been suspended, or minimum or maximum prices for trading shall have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities shall have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities shall have been required on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board or by order of the Commission or any other government authority having jurisdiction, or (iii) if the United States shall have become involved in a new war or an increase in major hostilities, or (iv) if a banking moratorium has been declared by a New York State or federal authority, or (v) if a moratorium on foreign exchange trading has been declared which materially adversely impacts the United States securities market, or (vi) if the Company shall have sustained a material loss by fire, explosion, flood, accident, hurricane, earthquake, theft, sabotage or other calamity or malicious act which, whether or not such loss shall have been insured, will, in your opinion, make it inadvisable to proceed with the delivery of the Units, (vii) if any of the Company’s representations, warranties or covenants hereunder are breached, or (viii) if the Representative shall have become aware after the date hereof of such a material adverse change in the conditions or prospects of the Company, or such adverse material change in general market conditions, including without limitation as a result of terrorist activities after the date hereof, as in the Representative’s judgment would make it impracticable to proceed with the offering, sale and/or delivery of the Units or to enforce contracts made by the Underwriters for the sale of the Securities.

9.2 Expenses. In the event that this Agreement shall not be carried out for any reason whatsoever, within the time specified herein or any extensions thereof pursuant to the terms herein, the obligations of the Company to pay the out of pocket expenses related to the transactions contemplated herein shall be governed by Section 3.8.1 hereof.

9.3 Indemnification. Notwithstanding any contrary provision contained in this Agreement, any election hereunder or any termination of this Agreement, and whether or not this Agreement is otherwise carried out, the provisions of Section 5 shall not be in any way affected by, such election or termination or failure to carry out the terms of this Agreement or any part hereof.

We acknowledge that we have read the Prospectus and understand that the Company has established a trust account for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders at JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA, maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee (the “Trust Account”) and that the Company may disburse monies from the Trust Account only:

(a) in the event the Company consummates a “business combination” (as such term is used in the Prospectus), to any public stockholders who exercise their conversion rights, to the Underwriters in respect of their deferred underwriting discount and to the Company in the amount remaining in the Trust Account following such payments to the public stockholders and the Underwriters; or

(b) in the event of the Company’s dissolution and liquidation, to the public stockholders.

For and in consideration of the Company [agreeing to evaluate us for purposes of consummating an initial business combination][engaging our services], we hereby agree that we do not have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account (“Claim”) and hereby waive any Claim we may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with the Company and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever.

Yours very truly,
