Re: Initial Public Offering of Xxxxxxx’x Cove Acquisition Corporation

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) entered into by and among Xxxxxxx’x Cove Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and UBS Securities LLC and Xxxxxx Xxxxxx & Co. Inc. as the representatives (collectively, the “Representatives”) of the underwriters named in Schedule A thereto (collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the “IPO”) of the Company’s units (the “Units”), each composed of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and one warrant, which is exercisable for one share of Common Stock (the “Warrants”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 19 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 officer and/or director 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. In the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 24 months (or 36 months if the Extended Period is approved by the Company’s stockholders) from the date of the Company’s final prospectus relating to the IPO (the “Prospectus”), the undersigned will take all reasonable actions within his or her power to (a) cause the Trust Account to be liquidated and distributed to the holders of the IPO Shares as promptly as practicable and (b) cause the Company to liquidate as promptly as practicable (the earliest date on which the conditions in clauses (a) and (b) are both satisfied being the “Liquidation Date”), including taking all action reasonably within his or her power to limit the Company’s activities to winding up its affairs and to dissolving the Company. The undersigned agrees that in connection with any cessation of corporate existence of the Company on [●], 2010 (or [●], 2011 if the Extended Period is approved by the Company’s stockholders), it will cause the Company to adopt a plan of dissolution and distribution in accordance with Section 281(b) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or any successor provision thereto.

2. Neither the undersigned nor any Affiliate of the undersigned will be entitled to receive, and no such person will accept, any finder’s fee, consulting fee, reimbursement or cash payment or any other form of compensation, including the issuance of the Company’s securities, from the Company for services rendered to the Company prior to or in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination, other than (subject to the following sentence) (a) repayment of that certain Promissory Note in the amount of $125,000 made to the Company by Xxxxxxx’x Cove Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), to cover offering expenses; (b) a payment of an aggregate of $10,000 per month to the Sponsor, for office space and certain general and administrative services, including but not limited to receptionist, secretarial and general office services; (c) reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses or advances related to: (i) the IPO or (ii) identifying, investigating and consummating a Business Combination; or (d) other expenses or advances that the Company is permitted to incur. The undersigned acknowledges that the Company’s Audit Committee (or the Company’s Board of Directors, with any interested director abstaining from such review and approval, in the case of a director who is a member of the Company’s Audit Committee) will review and approve all payments made to the undersigned, the Sponsor, the Company’s officers and directors and the Company’s or their Affiliates, other than the $10,000 per month payment described in the immediately preceding sentence.

3. Neither the undersigned, nor any Affiliate of the undersigned, will accept a finder’s fee, consulting fee or any other compensation or fees from any person or other entity in connection with a Business Combination, other than compensation or fees that may be received for any services provided following such Business Combination.

4. The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Company will not enter into any transaction with any of the Company’s officers or directors or any of the Company’s or their respective Affiliates, including loans by the Company’s officers and directors and any forgiveness of loans, (a) without the prior approval by a majority of the Company’s disinterested, “independent” (as defined below) directors or the members of the Company’s Board of Directors who do not have an interest in the transaction, in either case who had access, at the Company’s expense, to the Company’s attorneys or independent legal counsel, and (b) unless the Company’s disinterested, “independent” directors determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to the Company than those that would be available to the Company with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties. As used herein “independent” means a director who qualifies as (a) an “independent director” under Section 121 of the American Stock Exchange’s “AMEX” Company Guide and (b) independent under Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

5. In order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple affiliations, the undersigned agrees to present to the Company for its consideration, prior to presentation to any other person or entity, any suitable opportunity to acquire an operating business, until the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination, the liquidation of the Company or until such time as the undersigned ceases to be an officer or director of the Company, subject to any pre-existing fiduciary and contractual obligations the undersigned might have.

6. The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Company will not consummate a Business Combination with a Target Business that is affiliated with the Sponsor, the Company’s directors or officers or any Existing Holder or any of the Company’s or their Affiliates unless the Company obtains an opinion from an unaffiliated, independent investment banking firm, which is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (the “FINRA”), and is reasonably acceptable to the Representatives, that such Business Combination is fair to the Company’s stockholders from a financial point of view.

7. The undersigned will escrow any and all of (A) the Founders Units, Founders Shares and Founders Warrants (including the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon the exercise of the Founders Warrants) beneficially owned by him or her until one year after the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination and (B) the Insider Warrants (including the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of the Insider Warrants) beneficially owned by him or her until 30 days after the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination subject to the terms of an Escrow Agreement which the Company will enter into with the Sponsor and an escrow agent acceptable to the Company.

In connection with any vote of the Company’s stockholders on the proposals referred to in clauses (A) and (B) above, the undersigned will vote any Founders Shares owned directly or indirectly by him or her in accordance with the majority of the shares of Common Stock voted by the Company’s Public Stockholders in connection with the vote on any such proposal, and all shares of Common Stock that he or she may acquire in or following the IPO in favor of any such proposal. This Section may not be modified or amended under any circumstances.

10. The undersigned has full right and power, without violating any agreement by which he or she is bound (including, without limitation, any non-competition or non-solicitation agreement with any employer or former employer), to enter into and perform under this letter agreement and serve as [Chairman of the Board of Directors] [President, Chief Executive Officer and Director] [Lead Director] [other offices] [Director], and hereby consents to being named in the Registration Statement as a[n] [officer] [director] of the Company.

In addition, the undersigned waives his or her right to exercise redemption rights with respect to any shares of Common Stock owned or to be owned by the undersigned, directly or indirectly, and agrees that he or she will not seek redemption with respect to such shares in connection with any vote to approve the Extended Period or a Business Combination.

12. The undersigned hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any distributions of the Trust Account, or to any other amounts distributed in connection with a liquidating distribution of the Company, with respect to his or her Founders Shares and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Founders Warrants or the Insider Warrants (any “Claim”), 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 that the foregoing shall not apply to any IPO Shares acquired by the undersigned. The undersigned hereby agrees that the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement from the undersigned for any distribution of the Trust Account or any other amounts distributed by the Company in connection with a liquidating distribution received by the undersigned with respect to his or her Founders Shares or the shares of Common Stock underlying the Founders Warrants or the Insider Warrants.

In the case of the Company’s dissolution and liquidation, the undersigned understands that the Company expects that all costs and expenses associated with implementing the Company’s plan of distribution, as well as payments to any creditors, will be funded from amounts remaining out of the $50,000 of proceeds from the IPO held outside the Trust Account and from the up to $2.5 million in interest income on the balance of the Trust Account that will be released to the Company to fund its working capital requirements. Should the aforementioned funds not be sufficient, the undersigned hereby agrees to reimburse the Company for its out-of-pocket costs associated with its dissolution and liquidation, excluding any special, indirect or consequential costs, such as litigation, pertaining to the dissolution and liquidation and agrees not to seek repayment for such costs.
