Re: Initial Public Offering

Gentlemen:

This letter is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) entered into by and between North Asia Investment Corporation, a Cayman Islands company (the “Company”), and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as Representative (the “Representative”) of the several Underwriters named in Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriters”), relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the “IPO”) of the Company’s units (the “Units”), each comprised of one ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), and one warrant exercisable for one Ordinary Share (each, a “Warrant”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 15 hereof.

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

1. If the Company solicits the approval of its shareholders of a Business Combination, the undersigned will (i) vote all of the Founders’ Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by him (to the extent any such shares are acquired) in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by the holders of the IPO Shares with respect to a Business Combination or the Extended Period and (ii) vote all IPO Shares that may be acquired by him in the IPO or in the aftermarket in favor of a Business Combination or the Extended Period.

2. In the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within (x) 18 months of the closing date of the IPO, (y) 24 months of the closing date of the IPO if the Company has not consummated a Business Combination within 18 months of the closing date of the IPO but has entered into a letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle or definitive agreement with respect to a Business Combination within such 18-month period or (z) 36 months from the closing date of the IPO if the Company’s shareholders approve a proposal to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination by an additional 12 months and public shareholders owning less than 35% of the shares sold in the IPO exercise their conversion rights, the undersigned will, as promptly as possible, (i) cause the Trust Account to be liquidated and distributed to the holders of IPO Shares and (ii) cause the Company to liquidate as soon as reasonably practicable. The undersigned hereby waives any and all right, title,

interest or claim of any kind in or to any distribution of the Trust Account and any remaining net assets of the Company held outside of the Trust Account as a result of such liquidation with respect to his Founders’ Ordinary Shares to the extent any such Founders’ Ordinary Shares are acquired by the undersigned after the date hereof. The undersigned further waives any and all right, title, interest or claim in or to the Trust Account the undersigned may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any contracts or agreements with the Company and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever; provided, however, that in the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination and the Trust Account is liquidated and distributed, nothing herein shall prevent the undersigned from participating in the Trust Account pro rata with the other holders of IPO Shares with respect to any IPO Shares purchased by the undersigned as part of the IPO or in the aftermarket. The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that there will be no distribution from the Trust Account with respect to any warrants, all rights of which will terminate upon the Company’s liquidation.

3. In order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple corporate affiliations, the undersigned has agreed, until the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company, to present to the Company for its consideration, prior to presentation to any other person or entity, any suitable business opportunity to acquire an operating business. Decisions by the Company to release the undersigned to pursue any specific business opportunity will be made solely by a majority of the Company’s disinterested directors. In addition, the undersigned agrees that he will not, directly or indirectly, be a sponsor, promoter, officer, director or principal shareholder of any other blank check company that completes an initial public offering until the earlier of the Company’s execution of a definitive agreement for a Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company.

4. The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Company will not (i) consummate a Business Combination with an entity which is, or has been within the past five years, affiliated with any of its officers, directors, founders, special advisors or their affiliates, including an entity that is either a portfolio company of, or has otherwise received a material financial investment from, any private equity fund or investment company (or an affiliate thereof) that is affiliated with any of the Company’s founders, special advisors, officers, directors or their affiliates; or (ii) enter into a Business Combination where the Company acquires less than 100% of a target business and any of its officers, directors, founders, special advisors or their affiliates acquire the remaining portion of such target business, unless, in either case, (x) such transaction is approved by a majority of the Company’s disinterested directors and (y) the Company obtains an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority that the Business Combination is fair to the unaffiliated shareholders of the Company from a financial point of view.

5. Neither the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned, nor any affiliate of the undersigned will be entitled to receive and will not accept any compensation of any kind (whether in the form of cash, securities or otherwise) for services rendered to the Company prior to or in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination; provided, however, that commencing on the effective date of the Company’s Registration Statement, Kang & Company, Ltd. shall be allowed to charge the Company $10,000 per month, representing an allocable share of its overhead, to compensate it for the Company’s use of its space, utilities and secretarial support until the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination or its liquidation. The undersigned shall also be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for his out-of-pocket expenses incident to the identification, investigation and consummation of a Business Combination, but only to the extent such expenses can be reimbursed from the $             held outside of the Trust Account and the interest income on the Trust Account released to the Company to fund its working capital requirements, net of taxes payable; provided, however, that, subject to Audit Committee review as described below, nothing shall limit the

undersigned’s reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses to the extent the Company consummates a Business Combination. The Company’s Audit Committee will review and approve all payments made to the undersigned and its affiliates, and any payments made to members of the Company’s Audit Committee will be reviewed and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, with any interested directors abstaining from such review and approval.

6. Neither the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned, nor any affiliate of the undersigned will be entitled to receive or accept a finder’s fee, consulting fee or any other compensation in the event the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned or any affiliate of the undersigned originates a Business Combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is).

7. To the extent the undersigned acquires any Founders’ Ordinary Shares, the undersigned will escrow such Founders’ Ordinary Shares until 180 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 undersigned and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.

8. The undersigned agrees to be the Chairman of the Board of the Company until the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company; provided that nothing herein shall be construed as providing a right of the undersigned to any position if removed by proper corporate action. The undersigned further agrees to sign all documents necessary for, or in connection with, the IPO. The undersigned’s biographical information furnished to the Company and the Representative and attached hereto as Exhibit A is true and accurate in all respects, does not omit any material information with respect to the undersigned’s background and contains all of the information required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 401 of Regulation S-K, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.

11. Other than in connection with a vote for the Extended Period, the undersigned hereby agrees not to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment to the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the period of time in which the Company must consummate a Business Combination prior to its liquidation. Should such a proposal be put before shareholders other than for approval of the Extended Period, the undersigned hereby agrees to vote against such proposal. This paragraph may not be modified or amended under any circumstances.
