Exhibit 10.7

STOCK ESCROW AGREEMENT

          STOCK ESCROW AGREEMENT, dated as of                     , 2007 (“Agreement”), by and among ALDABRA 2 ACQUISITION CORP., a Delaware corporation (“Company”), TERRAPIN PARTNERS VENTURE PARTNERSHIP, XXXXXXXX X. XXXXXX, XXXXXXX X. XXXXX, TERRAPIN PARTNERS EMPLOYEE PARTNERSHIP and XXXX X. XXXXXX (collectively “Initial Stockholders”) and CONTINENTAL STOCK TRANSFER & TRUST COMPANY, a New York corporation (“Escrow Agent”).

          WHEREAS, the Company has entered into an Underwriting Agreement, dated                     , 2007 (“Underwriting Agreement”), with Lazard Capital Markets LLC (“Lazard”) acting as representative of the several underwriters (collectively, the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which, among other matters, the Underwriters have agreed to purchase 30,000,000 units (“Units”) of the Company. Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), and one warrant, each warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock, all as more fully described in the Company’s final Prospectus, dated                     , 2007 (“Prospectus”) comprising part of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-141398) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Registration Statement”), declared effective on                     , 2007 (“Effective Date”).

          WHEREAS, the Initial Stockholders have agreed as a condition of the sale of the Units to deposit their shares of Common Stock of the Company, as set forth opposite their respective names in Exhibit A attached hereto (collectively “Escrow Shares”), in escrow as hereinafter provided.

          WHEREAS, the Company and the Initial Stockholders desire that the Escrow Agent accept the Escrow Shares, in escrow, to be held and disbursed as hereinafter provided.

          IT IS AGREED:

     1. Appointment of Escrow Agent. The Company and the Initial Stockholders hereby appoint the Escrow Agent to act in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to act in accordance with and subject to such terms.

     2. Deposit of Escrow Shares. On or before the Effective Date, each of the Initial Stockholders shall deliver to the Escrow Agent certificates representing his, her or its respective Escrow Shares, to be held and disbursed subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each Initial Stockholder acknowledges that the certificate representing his, her or its Escrow Shares is legended to reflect the deposit of such Escrow Shares under this Agreement.

     3. Disbursement of the Escrow Shares. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Shares until one year after the consummation of a Business Combination (as defined in the Registration Statement) (“Escrow Period”), on which date it shall, upon written instructions from each Initial Stockholder, disburse each of the Initial Stockholder’s Escrow Shares (and any applicable stock power) to such Initial Stockholder; provided, however, that if the Escrow Agent is notified by the Company pursuant to Section 6.7 hereof that the Company is being liquidated at any time during the Escrow Period, then the Escrow Agent shall promptly destroy the certificates representing the Escrow Shares; provided, however, that if the Underwriters exercise their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 4,500,000 Units of the Company (as described in the

Prospectus), the Initial Stockholders agree that the Escrow Agent shall return to the Company for cancellation, at no cost, the number of Escrow Shares held by each Initial Stockholder determined by multiplying (a) the product of (i) 1,125,000, multiplied by (ii) a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is the number of Escrow Shares held by each Initial Stockholder, and (y) the denominator of which is the total number of Escrow Shares, by (b) a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is 4,500,000 minus the number of shares of Common Stock purchased by the Underwriters upon the exercise of their over-allotment option, and (ii) the denominator of which is 4,500,000; provided further, however, that if, after the Company consummates a Business Combination (as such term is defined in the Registration Statement), (i) it (or the surviving entity) subsequently consummates a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the stockholders of such entity having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property or (ii) the last sales price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period, then the Escrow Agent will, upon receipt of a certificate, executed by the Chairman of the Board, President or other authorized officer of the Company, in form reasonably acceptable to the Escrow Agent, that such transaction is then being consummated or such conditions have been achieved, as applicable, release the Escrow Shares to the Initial Stockholders. The Escrow Agent shall have no further duties hereunder after the disbursement or destruction of the Escrow Shares in accordance with this Section 3.

     4. Rights of Initial Stockholders in Escrow Shares.

          4.1 Voting Rights as a Stockholder. Subject to the terms of the Insider Letter described in Section 4.4 hereof and except as herein provided, the Initial Stockholders shall retain all of their rights as stockholders of the Company during the Escrow Period, including, without limitation, the right to vote such shares.

          4.2 Dividends and Other Distributions in Respect of the Escrow Shares. During the Escrow Period, all dividends payable in cash with respect to the Escrow Shares shall be paid to the Initial Stockholders, but all dividends payable in stock or other non-cash property (“Non-Cash Dividends”) shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent to hold in accordance with the terms hereof. As used herein, the term “Escrow Shares” shall be deemed to include the Non-Cash Dividends distributed thereon, if any.

          4.3 Restrictions on Transfer. During the Escrow Period, no sale, transfer or other disposition may be made of any or all of the Escrow Shares except (i) to an entity’s members upon its liquidation, (ii) by gift to a member of an Initial Stockholder’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is an Initial Stockholder or a member of an Initial Stockholder’s immediate family, (iii) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death of any Initial Stockholder, (iv) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order or (v) by private sales made at or prior to the consummation of a Business Combination at prices no greater than the price which the Initial Stockholder paid for the Escrow Shares; provided, however, that such transfers may be implemented only upon the respective transferee’s written agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and of the Insider Letter signed by the Initial Stockholder transferring the Escrow Shares.

          4.4 Insider Letters. Each of the Initial Stockholders has executed a letter agreement with Lazard and the Company, dated as indicated on Exhibit A hereto, and which is filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (“Insider Letter”), respecting the rights and obligations of such Initial Stockholder in certain events, including but not limited to the liquidation of the Company.

The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement unless evidenced by a writing delivered to the Escrow Agent signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Escrow Agent are affected, unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto.

          5.2 Indemnification.

Promptly after the receipt by the Escrow Agent of notice of any demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the Escrow Agent shall notify the other parties hereto in writing.
