As used herein, “Government Security” means any security issued or guaranteed as to principal or interest by the United States, or by a person controlled or supervised by and acting as an instrumentality of the Government of the United States pursuant to authority granted by the Congress of the United States; or any certificate of deposit for any of the foregoing;”

Re: Investment Management and Trust Agreement Dated January 19, 2006 between Middle Kingdom Alliance Corp and, Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company (“Trust Agreement”)
Dear Mr. Paolo:
I-Bankers Securities, Inc. is the Representative of the Underwriters for the Initial Public Offering of certain securities of Middle Kingdom Alliance Corp. pursuant to a registration statement which became effective on December 13, 2006 (“Registration Statement”).
It has been brought to our attention that the Trust Agreement entered into as described in the Registration Statement inadvertently contained a definition of “Government Security” that is inconsistent with the Registration Statement. The section of the Trust Agreement in question is Section 1(c), which should read as follows:
“(c) In a timely manner, upon the instruction of the Company, invest and reinvest the Property in any Government Security. As used herein, “Government Security” means any security issued or guaranteed as to principal or interest by the United States, or by a person controlled or supervised by and acting as an instrumentality of the Government of the United States pursuant to authority granted by the Congress of the United States; or any certificate of deposit for any of the foregoing;”
Accordingly, I-Bankers Securities, Inc., as Representative of the Underwriters, hereby consents to the amendment of Section 1(c) of the Trust Agreement to read as set forth above.
| Very truly yours, |
| /s/ Xxxxxxx Xxxxx |
| Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, President |
