Re: Initial Public Offering
Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned officer, director
and security holder of Good Harbor Partners Acquisition Corp. (the
“Company”), in consideration of HCFP/Brenner Securities
LLC’s (“Brenner”) willingness to underwrite an
initial public offering of the securities of the Company (the
“IPO”) and embarking on the IPO process, hereby agrees
as follows (certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in
paragraph 11 hereof):
1. In the event that the Company
fails to consummate a Business Combination within 18 months from
the effective date (“Effective Date”) of the
registration statement relating to the IPO (or 24 months under the
circumstances described in the prospectus relating to the IPO), the
undersigned will take all reasonable actions within his power to
(i) cause the Trust Fund to be liquidated and distributed to the
holders of the shares of Class B common stock sold in the
Company’s IPO and (ii) liquidate as soon as reasonably

interest or claim of any kind in or to any distribution of the
Trust Fund as a result of such liquidation with respect to his
Insider Securities (each a “Claim”) and hereby waives
any Claim he 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 Fund for any reason whatsoever. The

severally, pro rata with Richard Clarke, John Tritak, Ralph
Sheridan, Jack Mallon, and Brian Stafford (together with the
undersigned the “Indemnifiers”), based on his
percentage of Insider Securities directly or indirectly
beneficially owned by the Indemnifiers prior to the IPO, against
any and all loss, liability, claims, 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, whether pending or threatened, or any claim
whatsoever) which the Company may become subject as a result of any
claim by any vendor or other person who is owed money by the
Company for services rendered or products sold, or by any target
business, only in the event that such vendor, other person or
target business did not execute an agreement waiving any right,
title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any amounts held in
the Trust Fund, and only to the extent necessary to ensure that
such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense does not reduce the
amount in the Trust Fund.
