     Re:   Navitas International Corporation


Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

     This letter is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting
Agreement (the "UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT") entered into by and between Navitas
International Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and FTN
Midwest Securities Corp., as Representative (the "REPRESENTATIVE") of the
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 share of the Company's common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share (the "COMMON STOCK"), and two warrants, each being exercisable
for one share of Common Stock. The capitalized terms set forth on Schedule I
attached hereto are hereby incorporated by reference herein.

     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 individual named below
(the "UNDERSIGNED") as a stockholder of the Company, and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the Undersigned hereby agrees as follows:

1.    If the Company solicits approval of its stockholders of a Business
Combination, the Undersigned shall vote all Insider Shares owned by such person
in the same way as the votes of a majority of the IPO Shares by the holders
thereof.

2.    If a Transaction Failure occurs, the Undersigned shall take all reasonable
actions to cause (i) the Trust Fund to be liquidated and promptly distributed to
the holders of the IPO Shares (in respect of the IPO Shares they hold) no later
than the Termination Date and (ii) the Company to dissolve and liquidate.

3.    The Undersigned hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim
of any kind in or to any distribution of the Trust Fund or against the Trustees
("CLAIM") with respect to the Undersigned's Insider Shares, 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 for
any Claim against the Trust Fund or the Trustees for any reason whatsoever.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Undersigned acknowledges that he or she does
not have a Claim arising out of and waives any Claim it may have in the future
as a result of (i) the promissory note by the

<PAGE>

Company in favor of the Undersigned and (ii) the indemnification agreement by
and between the Company and the Undersigned. The Undersigned hereby agrees that
the Company shall be entitled to a reimbursement from the Undersigned for any
distribution of the Trust Fund received by the Undersigned in respect to such
person's Insider Shares.

4.    [For Officers of the Company] Upon a Transaction Failure, the Undersigned
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, jointly and severally with
the other Indemnifiers, against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages
and expenses 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)
(collectively, "DAMAGES") to which the Company may become subject as a result of
any claim by (x) any vendor or other person who is owed money by the Company for
services rendered or products sold, or (y) any target business with which the
Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or
non-disclosure agreement or other written agreement, except that no such
indemnification obligation shall apply to any Damages with respect to or arising
out of any claims made by a vendor, other person or target business that has
signed a release, waiver or similar agreement (whether as part of such written
agreement or otherwise) waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind
in or to any amounts held in the Trust Fund; provided, however, that the amount
of any such indemnification obligation shall be limited to the amount by which
such Damages (i) actually reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Fund and (ii)
are not reimbursed by any insurance procured by the Company to cover such claims
made against the Trust Fund. It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that if the
Undersigned is removed or ceases to be an officer of the Company, then his
indemnification obligations shall apply only to claims with respect to or
arising out of acts or omissions by the Company during his tenure as an officer
of the Company.

5.    If the Undersigned is not an officer of the Company, neither the
Undersigned nor any member of the family of the Undersigned or any Affiliate of
the Undersigned will be entitled to receive and will not accept any finder's fee
or any other compensation for services rendered to the Company prior to or in
connection with the consummation of the Business Combination. The Undersigned
shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for his or her reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with seeking and consummating a
Business Combination. Until the consummation of the Business Combination, the
Undersigned shall not be a director, officer or employee of, or act as an
independent contractor or consultant for or to, any other blank check company.
If the Undersigned is an officer of the Company, upon the consummation of the
IPO, the Undersigned will become a full-time employee of the Company and will
receive annual compensation as determined in the discretion and good faith
judgment of the independent members of the board of directors.

6.    The Undersigned will escrow his Insider Shares in accordance with the terms
of a stock escrow agreement which the Company will enter into with the
Undersigned and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as escrow agent, in
form and substance acceptable to the Company and the Representative.

7.    The Undersigned agrees to be [position] of the Company until the earlier of
the consummation by the Company of the Business Combination or the dissolution
of the Company. 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 Section 401 of Regulation S-K, promulgated under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Undersigned's questionnaire previously
furnished to the Company and the Representative is true and accurate in all
respects. The Undersigned represents and warrants that:

insolvency law was n
