Broadband Capital Management LLC
805 Third Ave., 15th Floor
New York, New York 10022

Dear Sirs:

     The undersigned, China Mineral Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware
corporation ("COMPANY"), hereby confirms its agreement with Broadband Capital
Management LLC (hereinafter referred to as "YOU," "BROADBAND" or the
"REPRESENTATIVE") and with the other underwriters named on Schedule I hereto for
which Broadband is 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 Securities. 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 4,000,000 units ("FIRM UNITS") of the
Company at a purchase price (net of discounts and commissions) of $5.58 per Firm
Unit. The Underwriters, severally and not jointly, agree to purchase from the
Company the number of Firm Securities set forth opposite their respective names
on Schedule I attached hereto and made a part hereof at a purchase price (net of
discounts and commissions) of $5.58 per share. The Units are to be offered
initially to the public (the "OFFERING") at the offering price set forth on the
cover page of the Prospectus (as defined in Section 2.1.1 hereof). Each Firm
Unit consists of one share of the Company's common stock, par value $.0001 per
share (the "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 90 days after the effective date (the "EFFECTIVE DATE") of
the Registration Statement (as defined in Section 2.1.1 hereof) unless Broadband
informs the Company of its decision to allow earlier separate trading, but in no
event will Broadband allow separate trading until the preparation of an audited
balance sheet of the Company reflecting receipt by the Company of the proceeds
of the Offering. 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 of the Registration Statement and terminating on the five-year
anniversary of the Effective Date. "BUSINESS COMBINATION" shall mean any merger,
capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination
consummated by the Company with a company which has its primary operations
located in the People's Republic of 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 10:00 A.M., New York time, on the third business day following
the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the fourth business day
following the effective date, if the Registration Statement is declared




                                       1


effective 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 hour and date of delivery and payment for the Firm Units is 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: $______________ of the proceeds received by the Company for the Firm
Units shall be deposited in the trust fund established by the Company for the
benefit of the public stockholders as described in the Registration Statement
("TRUST FUND") pursuant to the terms of an Investment Management Trust Agreement
(the "TRUST AGREEMENT") and the remaining proceeds shall be paid to the order of
the Company upon 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 (the "DTC")) for the account of the
Underwriters. 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.

     1.2  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 600,000 units from the Company (the "OVER-ALLOTMENT OPTION"). Such
additional 600,000 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 from 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, 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. If such
delivery and payment for the Option Units does not occur on the Closing Date,
the date and time of the closing for such Option Units will be as set forth in
the notice (hereinafter the "OPTION CLOSING DATE"). 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 will be 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 Fund 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)
for the account of the Underwriters. 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.

                                       2


     1.3  Representative's Purchase Option.

          1.3.1 Purchase Option. The Company hereby agrees to issue and sell to
the Representative (and/or their designees) on the Effective Date an option
("REPRESENTATIVE'S PURCHASE OPTION") for the purchase of an aggregate of 400,000
units (the "REPRESENTATIVE'S UNITS") for an aggregate purchase price of $100.00.
Each of the Representative's Units is identical to the Firm Units, , except that
the Warrants included in the Representative's Units ("Representatives Warrants")
have an exercise price of $6.95 (139% 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 the
consummation of a Business Combination or one year from the Effective Date and
expiring on the five-year anniversary of the Effective Date at an initial
exercise price per Representative's Unit of $9.90, which is equal to one hundred
and sixty five percent (165%) of the initial public offering price of a Unit.
The Representative's Purchase Option, the Representative's Units, the Warrants
included in the Representative's Units (the "REPRESENTATIVE'S WARRANTS") 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." The Representative understands and
agrees that there are significant restrictions against transferring the
Representative's Purchase Option during the first year after the Effective Date,
as set forth in Section 3 of the Representative's Purchase Option.

          1.3.2 Payment and Delivery. Delivery and payment for the
Representative's Purchase Option shall be made on the Closing Date. The Company
shall deliver to the Underwriters, upon payment therefor, certificates for the
Representative's Purchase Option in the name or names and in such authorized
denominations as the Underwriters may request.

2.   Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and
warrants to the Underwriters as follows:

     2.1  Filing of Registration Statement.

          2.1.1 Pursuant to the Act. The Company has filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission ("COMMISSION") a registration statement and an amendment
or amendments thereto, on Form S-1 (File No. ___-_____), including any related
preliminary prospectus (the "PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS"), for the registration of
the Public Securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("ACT"),
which registration statement and amendment or amendments have been prepared by
the Company in conformity with the requirements of the Act, and the rules and
regulations ("Regulations") of the Commission under the Act. Except as the
context may otherwise require, such registration statement, as amended, on file
with the Commission at the time the registration statement becomes effective
(including the prospectus, financial statements, schedules, exhibits and all
other documents filed as a part thereof or incorporated therein and all
information deemed to be a part thereof as of such time pursuant to paragraph
(b) of Rule 430A of the Regulations), is hereinafter called the "REGISTRATION
STATEMENT," and the form of the final prospectus dated the Effective Date
included in the Registration Statement (or, if applicable, the form of final
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 of the Regulations),
is hereinafter called the "PROSPECTUS." The Registration Statement has been
declared effective by the Commission on the date hereof.

          2.1.2 Pursuant to the Exchange Act. The Company has filed with the
Commission a Form 8-A (File Number ___-___-____) providing for the registration

                                       3


     2.2  No Stop Orders, Etc. Neither the Commission nor, to the best of the
Company's knowledge, any state regulatory authority has issued any order
preventing or suspending the use of any Preliminary Prospectus or has instituted
or, to the best of the Company's knowledge, threatened to institute any
proceedings with respect to such an order.

     2.3  Disclosures in Registration Statement.

          2.3.1 10b-5 Representation. At the time the Registration Statement
becomes effective and at all times subsequent thereto up to the Closing Date and
the Option Closing Date, if any, the Registration Statement and the Prospectus
will contain all material statements that are required to be stated therein in
accordance with the Act and the Regulations, and will in all material respects
conform to the requirements of the Act and the Regulations; neither the
Registration Statement nor the Prospectus, nor any amendment or supplement
thereto, on such dates, will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading. When any Preliminary Prospectus was first filed with the
Commission (whether filed as part of the Registration Statement for the
registration of the Securities or any amendment thereto or pursuant to Rule
424(a) of the Regulations) and when any amendment thereof or supplement thereto
was first filed with the Commission, such Preliminary Prospectus and any
amendments thereof and supplements thereto complied or will comply in all
material respects with the applicable provisions of the Act and the Regulations
and did not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading. The representation and warranty made in this Section
2.3.1 does not apply to statements made or statements omitted in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company with respect
to the Underwriters by the Representative expressly for use in the Registration
Statement or Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto.

          2.3.2 Disclosure of Agreements. The agreements and documents described
in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus conform to the descriptions
thereof contained therein and there are no agreements or other documents
required to be described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to

characterized or described) to which the Company is a party or by which its
property or business is or may be bound or affected and (i) that is referred to
in the Prospectus, or (ii) is material to the Company's business, has been duly
and validly executed by the Company, is in full force and effect in all material
respects and is enforceable against the Company and, to the Company's knowledge,
the other parties thereto, in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, (ii) as enforceability of
any indemnification or contribution provision may be limited under the federal
and state securities laws, and (iii) that the remedy of specific performance and
injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to the equitable

the Company, and neither the Company nor, to the best of the Company's
knowledge, any other party is in default thereunder and, to the best of the
Company's knowledge, no event has occurred that, with the lapse of time or the
giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default thereunder. To the best of
the Company's knowledge, performance by the Company of the material provisions
of such agreements or instruments will not result in a violation of any existing
applicable law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree of any governmental
agency or court having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its assets or
businesses, including, without limitation, those relating to environmental laws
and regulations.

          2.3.3 Prior Securities Transactions. No securities of the Company have

independent accountants as required by the Act and the Regulations. GGK has not,
during the periods covered by the financial statements included in the
Prospectus, provided to the Company any non-audit services, as such term is used
in Section 10A(g) of the Exchange Act.

     2.6  Financial Statements. The financial statements, including the notes

the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, on the Effective Date and on the
Closing Date, there will be no options, warrants, or other rights to purchase or
otherwise acquire any authorized, but unissued shares of Common Stock of the
Company or any security convertible into shares of Common Stock of the Company,

          2.8.1 Outstanding Securities. All issued and outstanding securities of
the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and
non-assessable; the holders thereof have no rights of rescission with respect
thereto, and are not subject to personal liability by reason of being such
holders; and none of such securities were issued in violation of the preemptive
rights of any holders of any security of the Company or similar contractual
rights granted by the Company. The authorized Common Stock conforms to all
statements relating thereto contained in the Registration Statement and the
Prospectus. The offers and sales of the outstanding Common Stock were at all
relevant times either registered under the Act and the applicable state
securities or Blue Sky laws or, based in part on the representations and
warranties of the purchasers of such shares of Common Stock, exempt from such
registration requirements.

     3.1  Amendments to Registration Statement. The Company will deliver to the
Representative, prior to filing, any amendment or supplement to the Registration

reasonably object in writing.

     3.2  Federal Securities Laws.

          3.2.1 Compliance. During the time when a Prospectus is required to be
delivered under the Act, the Company will use all reasonable efforts to comply
with all requirements imposed upon it by the Act, the Regulations and the
Exchange Act and by the regulations under the Exchange Act, as from time to time
in force, so far as necessary to permit the continuance of sales of or dealings
in the Public Securities in accordance with the provisions hereof and the
Prospectus. If at any time when a Prospectus relating to the Public Securities
is required to be delivered under the Act, any event shall have occurred as a
result of which, in the opinion of counsel for the Company or counsel for the
Underwriters, the Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, includes an
untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it is
necessary at any time to amend the Prospectus to comply with the Act, the
Company will notify the Representative promptly and prepare and file with the
Commission, subject to Section 3.1 hereof, an appropriate amendment or
supplement in accordance with Section 10 of the Act.

          3.2.2 Filing of Final Prospectus. The Company will file the Prospectus
(in form and substance satisfactory to the Representative) with the Commission
pursuant to the requirements of Rule 424 of the Regulations.

Effective Date, or until such earlier time upon which the Company is required to
be liquidated, the Company will use its best efforts to maintain the
registration of the Units, Common Stock and Warrants under the provisions of the
Exchange Act. The Company will not deregister the Units under the Exchange Act
without the prior written consent of Broadband.

     3.3  Blue Sky Filing. The Company will endeavor in good faith, in
cooperation with the Representative, at or prior to the time the Registration
Statement becomes effective, to qualify the Public Securities for offering and
sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as the Representative may
reasonably designate, provided that no such qualification shall be required in
any jurisdiction where, as a result thereof, the Company would be subject to
service of general process or to taxation as a foreign corporation doing
business in such jurisdiction. In each jurisdiction where such qualification
shall be effected, the Company will, unless the Representative agrees that such
action is not at the time necessary or advisable, use all reasonable efforts to
file and make such statements or reports at such times as are or may be required
by the laws of such jurisdiction.

     3.4  Delivery to Underwriters of Prospectuses. The Company will deliver to
each of the several Underwriters, without charge, from time to time during the
period when the Prospectus is required to be delivered under the Act or the
Exchange Act such number of copies of each Preliminary Prospectus and the

                                       9


Prospectus as such Underwriters may reasonably request and, as soon as the
Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto becomes effective,
deliver to you two original executed Registration Statements, including
exhibits, and all post-effective amendments thereto and copies of all exhibits
filed therewith or incorporated therein by reference and all original executed
consents of certified experts.

     3.5  Effectiveness and Events Requiring Notice to the Representative. The
Company will use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to remain
effective and will notify the Representative immediately and confirm the notice
in writing: (i) of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and any
amendment thereto; (ii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order or
of the initiation, or the threatening, of any proceeding for that purpose; (iii)
of the issuance by any state securities commission of any proceedings for the
suspension of the qualification of the Public Securities for offering or sale in
any jurisdiction or of the initiation, or the threatening, of any proceeding for
that purpose; (iv) of the mailing and delivery to the Commission for filing of
any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus; (v) of
the receipt of any comments or request for any additional information from the
Commission; and (vi) of the happening of any event during the period described
in Section 3.4 hereof that, in the judgment of the Company, makes any statement
of a material fact made in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus untrue
or that requires the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If the Commission or
any state securities commission shall enter a stop order or suspend such
qualification at any time, the Company will make every reasonable effort to
obtain promptly the lifting of such order.

Effective Date, or until such earlier upon which the Company is required to be
liquidated, the Company, at its expense, shall cause its regularly engaged
independent certified public accountants to review (but not audit) the Company's
financial statements for each of the first three fiscal quarters prior to the
announcement of quarterly financial information, the filing of the Company's
Form 10-Q quarterly report and the mailing of quarterly financial information to
stockholders.

     3.7  Affiliated Transactions.

          3.7.1 Affiliate Combinations. The Company will not consummate a

from a financial perspective.

(the "SERVICES AGREEMENT") with ________________, an affiliate of Simon Mu, one
of our principal stockholders (the "AFFILIATE"), pursuant to which the Affiliate
will make available to the Company general and administrative services including
office space, utilities and secretarial support for an amount equal to $[500.00]
per month.

          3.7.3 Affiliate Compensation. Except as set forth above in this
Section 3.7, the Company shall not pay any Initial Stockholder or any of their
affiliates any fees or compensation from the Company, for services rendered to
the Company prior to, or in connection with, the consummation of a Business
Combination; provided that the Initial Stockholders shall be entitled to
reimbursement from the Company for their out-of-pocket expenses incurred in
connection with seeking and consummating a Business Combination; and provided,
further, that such persons shall be entitled to receive, upon consummation of a
Business Combination, commissions for monies raised by them for the Company in
connection with such Business Combination, at rates which are no less favorable
to the Company than those which the Company would pay to unaffiliated third
parties.

     3.8  Secondary Market Trading and Standard & Poor's. The Company will apply

provide Broadband, and direct the Company's transfer and warrant agent to
provide to Broadband, at the Company's cost, lists of the record and, to the
extent known, beneficial owners of, the Warrants. Commencing one year from the
Effective Date, the Company will pay Broadband a commission of five percent of
the exercise price of the Warrants for each Warrant exercised, payable on the
date of such exercise, on the terms provided for in the Warrant Agreement, only
if permitted under the rules and regulations of the NASD and only to the extent
that an investor who exercises his Warrants specifically designates, in writing,
that Broadband solicited his exercise. Broadband may engage sub-agents in its
solicitation efforts. The Company agrees to disclose the arrangement to pay such
solicitation fees to Broadband in any prospectus used by the Company in
connection with the registration of the shares of Common Stock underlying the
Warrants.

information with respect to the Company and the affairs of any future
subsidiaries of the Company as the Representative may from time to time

          3.11.2 Transfer Sheets. For a period of five years following the
Effective Date or until such earlier time upon which the Company is required to

to the Representative (the "TRANSFER AGENT") and will furnish to the

quoted on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or any successor trading market such as
the Bulletin Board Exchange) or the Pink Sheets, LLC (or similar publisher of
quotations) and no other automated quotation system, the Company shall provide
to the Representative, at its expense, such reports published by the NASD or the
Pink Sheets, LLC relating to price trading of the Public Securities, as the
Representative shall reasonably request.

     3.12 Disqualification of Form S-1. For a period equal to seven years from

Company and Simon Mu annexed as Exhibit [10.10] to the Registration Statement,

the effect that:

                (i) The Company has been duly organized and is validly existing
as a corporation and is in good standing under the laws of its state of
incorporation. The Company is duly qualified and licensed and in good standing
as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which its ownership or leasing
of any properties or the character of its operations requires such qualification
or licensing, except where the failure to qualify would not have a material
adverse effect on the Company.

                (ii) All issued and outstanding securities of the Company have
been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable;
the holders thereof are not subject to personal liability by reason of being
such holders; and none of such securities were issued in violation of the
preemptive rights of any stockholder of the Company arising by operation of law
or under the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company. The offers
and sales of the outstanding Common Stock were at all relevant times either
registered under the Act and the applicable state securities or Blue Sky Laws or
exempt from such registration requirements. The authorized and outstanding
capital stock of the Company is as set forth in the Prospectus.

                                       14


                (iii) The Securities have been duly authorized and, when issued
and paid for, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable; the holders
thereof are not and will not be subject to personal liability by reason of being
such holders. The Securities are not and will not be subject to the preemptive
rights of any holders of any security of the Company arising by operation of law
or under the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company. When issued,
the Representative's Purchase Option, the Representative's Warrants and the
Warrants will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company to issue
and sell, upon exercise thereof and payment therefor, the number and type of
securities of the Company called for thereby and such Warrants, the
Representative's Purchase Option, and the Representative's Warrants, when
issued, in each case, are enforceable against the Company in accordance with
their respective terms, except: (a) as such enforceability may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors'
rights generally; (b) as enforceability of any indemnification or contribution
provision may be limited under the United States and state securities laws; and
(c) that the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of
equitable relief may be subject to the equitable defenses and to the discretion
of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought. The
certificates representing the Securities are in due and proper form.

                (iv) This Agreement, the Warrant Agreement, the Services
Agreement, the Trust Agreement and the Escrow Agreement have each been duly and
validly authorized and, when executed and delivered by the Company, constitute,
and the Representative's Purchase Option has been duly and validly authorized by
the Company and, when executed and delivered, will constitute, the valid and
binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in
accordance with their respective terms, except: (a) as such enforceability may
be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting
creditors' rights generally; (b) as enforceability of any indemnification or
contribution provisions may be limited under the United States and state
securities laws; and (c) that the remedy of specific performance and injunctive
and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to the equitable defenses and
to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be
brought.

                (v) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement,
the Warrant Agreement, the Representative's Purchase Option, the Escrow
Agreement, the Trust Agreement and the Services Agreement, the issuance and sale
of the Securities, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby, and compliance by the Company with the terms and provisions hereof and
thereof, do not and will not, with or without the giving of notice or the lapse
of time, or both, (a) to such counsel's knowledge, conflict with, or result in a
breach of, any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or
result in the creation or modification of any lien, security interest, charge or
encumbrance upon any of the properties or assets of the Company pursuant to the
terms of, any mortgage, deed of trust, note, indenture, loan, contract,
commitment or other agreement or instrument filed as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement, (b) result in any violation of the provisions of the
Certificate of Incorporation or the By-Laws of the Company, or (c) to such
counsel's knowledge, violate any United States statute or any judgment, order or
decree, rule or regulation applicable to the Company of any court, United States
or state regulatory authority or other governmental body having jurisdiction
over the Company, its properties or assets.

                (vi) The Registration Statement, each Preliminary Prospectus and
the Prospectus and any post-effective amendments or supplements thereto (other
than the financial statements included therein, as to which no opinion need be
rendered) each as of their respective dates complied as to form in all material
respects with the requirements of the Act and Regulations. The Securities
conform in all material respects to the description thereof contained in the
Registration Statement and the Prospectus. No United States or state statute or
regulation required to be described in the Prospectus is not described as
required (except as to the Blue Sky laws of the various states, as to which such
counsel expresses no opinions), nor are any contracts or documents of a
character required to be described in the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus or to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement not so
described or filed as required (except for the contracts and documents described
in the "Underwriting" section of the Registration Statement, as to which such
counsel expresses no opinions).

                                       15


                (vii) Counsel has participated in conferences with officers and
other representatives of the Company, representatives of the independent public
accountants for the Company and representatives of the Underwriters at which the
contents of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and related matters were
discussed and although such counsel is not passing upon and does not assume any
responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements
contained in the Registration Statement and Prospectus (except as otherwise set
forth in this opinion), no facts have come to the attention of such counsel
which lead them to believe that either the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the date of such
opinion contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading (it being understood that such counsel need express no opinion with
respect to (i) any disclosures relating to the laws, rules, statutes or
regulations of China (it being understood that the Underwriters are relying on
the opinion of [CHINESE COUNSEL] (defined below) with respect to such matters)
or (ii) the financial statements and schedules and other financial and
statistical data included in the Registration Statement or Prospectus).

Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have
been instituted or are pending or threatened under the Act or applicable state
securities laws.

                (ix) To such counsel's knowledge, there is no action, suit or

foreign, now pending, or threatened against the Company that is required to be
described in the Registration Statement.

United States and jurisdictions in which they are admitted, to the extent such
counsel deems proper and to the extent specified in such opinion, if at all,
upon an opinion or opinions (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to

fact, to the extent they deem proper, on certificates or other written
statements of officers of the Company and officers of departments of various

5.   Indemnification.

     5.1  Indemnification of Underwriters.

          5.1.1 General. Subject to the conditions set forth below, the Company
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Underwriters, 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 Units 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. With
respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or
omission made in the Preliminary Prospectus, the indemnity agreement contained
in this paragraph shall not inure to the benefit of any Underwriter to the
extent that any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense of such Underwriter
results from the fact that a copy of the Prospectus was not given or sent to the
person asserting any such loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the
written confirmation of sale of the Securities to such person as required by the
Act and the Regulations, and if the untrue statement or omission has been
corrected in the Prospectus, unless such failure to deliver the Prospectus was a
result of non-compliance by the Company with its obligations under Section 3.4
hereof. 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 or
controlling person in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the
Company pursuant to Section 5.1.1, such Underwriter 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) and payment of actual
expenses. Such Underwriter 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 or such controlling person
unless: (i) the employment of such counsel at the

                                       19


expense of the Company shall have been authorized in writing by the Company in
connection with the defense of such action; (ii) the Company shall not have
employed counsel to have 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 and/or
controlling person shall be borne by the Company. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, if the Underwriter 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, 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.

                                       20


          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 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
such default 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 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 may be terminated by you or the Company without
liability on the part of the Company (except as provided in Sections 3.15 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 Underwriter 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.   Right to Appoint Representative. For a period of two years from the
Effective Date, upon notice from Broadband to the Company, Broadband shall have
the right to send a representative (who need not be the same

                                       21


individual from meeting to meeting) to observe each meeting of the Board of
Directors of the Company; provided that such representative shall sign a
Regulation FD compliant confidentiality agreement which is reasonably acceptable
to Broadband and its counsel in connection with such representative's attendance
at meetings of the Board of Directors; and provided further that upon written
notice to Broadband, the Company may exclude the representative from meetings
where, in the written opinion of counsel for the Company, the representative's
presence would destroy the attorney-client privilege. The Company agrees to give
Broadband written notice of each such meeting and to provide Broadband with an
agenda and minutes of the meeting no later than it gives such notice and
provides such items to the other directors, and reimburse the representative of
Broadband for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with
its attendance at the meeting, including but not limited to, food, lodging and
transportation.

8.   Additional Covenants.

     8.1  Intentionally Omitted.

     8.2  Additional Shares or Options. The Company hereby agrees that until the
Company consummates a Business Combination (as such term is defined in the
Registration Statement), 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 Fund or which vote
as a class with the Common Stock on a Business Combination.

     8.3  Trust Fund Waiver Letters. The Company hereby agrees that it will not
commence its due diligence investigation of any operating business which the
Company seeks to acquire ("TARGET BUSINESS") or obtain the services of any
vendor unless and until the Target Business or the vendor executes a waiver
letter in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT A and B, respectively.
Furthermore, each officer and director of the Company shall execute a waiver
letter in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT C.

     8.4  Insider Letters. The Company shall not take any action or omit to take
any action which would cause a breach of any of the Insider Letters executed
between each Initial Stockholder and Broadband and will not allow any amendments
to, or waivers of, such Insider Letters without the prior written consent of
Broadband.

     8.5  Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws. 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 Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws.

     8.6  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.

     8.7  Intentionally Omitted.

     8.8  Acquisition/Liquidation Procedure. The Company agrees: (i) that, prior
to the consummation of any 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 (defined below) an
aggregate sum equal to the Company's "Liquidation Value." With respect to the
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 in accordance with the vote of

                                       22


the holders of a majority of the IPO Shares. At the time the Company seeks
approval of any potential Business Combination, the Company will offer each of
holders of the Company's Common Stock issued in this Offering (the "IPO SHARES")
the right to convert their IPO Shares at a per share price equal to the amount
in the Trust Fund (inclusive of any interest income therein) on the record date
(the "CONVERSION PRICE") for determination of stockholders entitled to vote upon
the proposal to approve such Business Combination (the "RECORD DATE") divided by
the total number of IPO Shares. The Company's "Liquidation Value" shall mean the
Company's book value, as determined by the Company and audited by GGK. In no
event, however, will the Company's Liquidation Value be less than the Trust
Fund, inclusive of any net interest income thereon. If holders of less than 20%
in interest of the Company's IPO Shares vote against such approval of a Business
Combination, 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 liquidating
distributions and the Company shall pay no liquidating 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, the Company will not proceed with such Business
Combination and will not convert such shares.

     8.8  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.

     8.9  Affiliated Transactions. The Company shall cause each of the Initial
Stockholders to agree that, in order to minimize potential conflicts of interest
which may arise from multiple affiliations, the Initial Stockholders will
present to the Company for its consideration, prior to presentation to any other
person or company, 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 Initial Stockholders
cease to be an officer or director of the Company, subject to any pre-existing
fiduciary obligations the Initial Stockholders might have or new fiduciary
obligations related to or affiliated with entities to whom the Initial
Stockholders have pre-existing fiduciary obligations, including, but not limited
to, fiduciary obligations to next generation, follow-on or successor entities to
any entities to which the Initial Stockholders have pre-existing obligations.

     8.10 Target Net Assets. The Company agrees that the initial Target Business
that it acquires must have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the
Company's net assets at the time of such acquisition. The fair market value of
such business 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 has a fair market value of at least 80% of the Company's fair market
value at the time of such acquisition, the Company will obtain an opinion from
an unaffiliated, independent investment banking firm which is a member of the
NASD 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 if the Company's Board of Directors independently determines that
the Target Business does have sufficient fair market value.
