(vi) On or prior to the date hereof, such Selling Stockholder has executed and delivered to you a “lock-up” agreement letter in a form satisfactory to you.

In order to document the Underwriters’ compliance with the reporting and withholding provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, with respect to the transactions herein contemplated, each of the Selling Stockholders agrees to deliver to you prior to or on the First Closing Date, as hereinafter defined, a properly completed and executed United States Treasury Department Form W-8 or W-9 (or other applicable form of statement specified by Treasury Department regulations in lieu thereof).

SECTION 4. Representations and Warranties of the Underwriters. The Representative, on behalf of the several Underwriters, represents and warrants to the Company and the Selling Stockholders that the information set forth (a) on the cover page of the Prospectus with respect to the public offering price and underwriting discount for the Offering and (b) in paragraphs 3, 11, 12 and 13 under “Underwriting” in the Prospectus was furnished to the Company by and on behalf of the Underwriters for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statements and is correct and complete in all material respects.

SECTION 5. Purchase, Sale and Delivery of Shares. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company and each of the Selling Stockholders, severally and not jointly, agrees to sell to the Underwriters named in Schedule A hereto, and the Underwriters agree, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company and the Selling Stockholders, respectively, 2,500,000 Firm Shares in the case of the Company and the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the name of each Selling

-11-

Stockholder in Schedule B hereto in the case of the Selling Stockholders, at the price per share set forth in the Pricing Agreement. The obligation of each Underwriter to the Company shall be to purchase from the Company that number of Firm Shares which (as nearly as practicable, as determined by you) bears to 2,500,000, the same proportion as the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule A hereto bears to the total number of Firm Shares to be purchased by all Underwriters under this Agreement. The obligation of each Underwriter to each of the Selling Stockholders shall be to purchase from such Selling Stockholder that number of full shares which (as nearly as practicable, as determined by you) bears to the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the name of such Selling Stockholder in Schedule B hereto, the same proportion as the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule A hereto bears to the total number of Firm Shares to be purchased by all Underwriters under this Agreement. The public offering price and the purchase price shall be set forth in the Pricing Agreement.

At 9:00 A.M., Chicago Time, on the fourth business day, if permitted under Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act, (or the third business day if required under Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act or unless postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section 12) following the date the Registration Statements became effective (or, if the Company has elected to rely upon Rule 430B, the fourth business day, if permitted under Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act, (or the third business day if required under Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act) after execution of the Pricing Agreement), or such other time not later than ten business days after such date as shall be agreed upon by the Representative and the Company, the Company and the Selling Stockholders will deliver to you at the offices of counsel for the Underwriters or through the facilities of DTC for the accounts of the several Underwriters, the Firm Shares to be sold by them, against payment of the purchase price therefor by delivery of federal or other immediately available funds, by wire transfer, to the Company and the Selling Stockholders to such accounts as the Company and the respective Selling Stockholders shall provide to the Representative prior to the First Closing Date. Such time of delivery and payment is herein referred to as the “First Closing Date.” The Firm Shares to be so delivered will be registered in such names as you request by notice to the Company and the Selling Stockholders prior to 10:00 A.M., Chicago Time, on the second business day preceding the First Closing Date. Payment for the Firm Shares so to be delivered shall be made at the time and in the manner described above at the offices of counsel for the Underwriters.

In addition, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company hereby grants an option to the several Underwriters to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to an aggregate of 937,385 Option Shares, at the same purchase price per share to be paid for the Firm Shares, for use solely in covering any overallotments made by the Underwriters in the sale and distribution of the Firm Shares. The option granted hereunder may be exercised from time to time within 30 days after the date of the Prospectus first filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the 1933 Act (the “Rule 424 Prospectus”) upon notice by you to the Company setting forth the aggregate number of Option Shares as to which the Underwriters are exercising the option, the names and denominations in which such shares are to be registered and the time and place at which such shares will be delivered. Such time of delivery (which may not be earlier than the First Closing Date), being herein referred to as the “Second Closing Date,” shall be determined by you, but if at any time other than the First Closing Date, shall not be earlier than three nor later than 10 full business days after delivery of such notice of exercise. The number of Option Shares to be purchased by each Underwriter shall be determined by multiplying the number of Option Shares to be sold by the Company by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Firm Shares to be purchased by such Underwriter as set forth opposite its name in Schedule A and the denominator of which is the total number of Firm Shares (subject to such adjustments to eliminate any fractional share purchases as you in your absolute discretion may make). The manner of payment for and delivery of the Option Shares shall be the same as for the Firm Shares as specified in the preceding paragraph.

-12-

You have advised the Company and the Selling Stockholders that each Underwriter has authorized you to accept delivery of its Shares, to make payment and to acknowledge receipt therefor. You, individually and not as the Representative of the Underwriters, may make payment for any Shares to be purchased by any Underwriter whose funds shall not have been received by you by the First Closing Date or the Second Closing Date, as the case may be, for the account of such Underwriter, but any such payment shall not relieve such Underwriter from any obligation hereunder.

SECTION 6. Covenants of the Company. The Company, and in the case of Section 6(h), each of the Selling Stockholders, covenants and agrees that:

(a) During the period when a prospectus relating to the Shares is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, the Company will advise you and each of the Selling Stockholders promptly of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statements or of the institution of any proceedings for that purpose, or of any notification of the suspension of qualification of the Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for that purpose or of any examination pursuant to Section 8(e) of the 1933 Act concerning the Registration Statements and if the Company becomes the subject of a proceeding under Section 8A of the 1933 Act in connection with the Offering, and will also advise you and each of the Selling Stockholders promptly of any request of the Commission for amendment or supplement of the Registration Statements, of any preliminary prospectus or of the Prospectus, or for additional information.

(b) During the period when a prospectus relating to the Shares is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, the Company will give you and each of the Selling Stockholders notice of its intention to file or prepare any amendment to the Registration Statements (including any post-effective amendment) or any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus (including any revised prospectus which the Company proposes for use by the Underwriters in connection with the Offering which differs from the prospectus on file at the Commission at the time the Rule 429 Registration Statement became effective, whether or not such revised prospectus is required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)) and will furnish you and each of the Selling Stockholders with copies of any such amendment or supplement a reasonable amount of time prior to such proposed filing or use, as the case may be, and will not file any such amendment or supplement or use any such prospectus to which you or counsel for the Underwriters shall reasonably object.

(c) If at any time when a prospectus relating to the Shares is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus, including any amendments or supplements, would include an untrue statement of a material fact, or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it is necessary at any time to amend the Prospectus, including any amendments or supplements thereto and including any revised prospectus which the Company proposes for use by the Underwriters in connection with the Offering which differs from the prospectus on file with the Commission at the time of effectiveness of the Rule 429 Registration Statement, whether or not such revised prospectus is required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) to comply with the 1933 Act, the Company promptly will advise you thereof and will promptly prepare and file with the Commission an amendment or supplement which will correct such statement or omission or an amendment which will effect such compliance; and, in case any Underwriter is required to deliver a prospectus nine months or more after the effective date of the Registration Statements, the Company upon request, but at the expense of such Underwriter, will prepare promptly such prospectus or prospectuses as may be necessary to permit compliance with the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act.

-13-

(e) Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries will acquire any capital stock of the Company prior to the earlier of the Second Closing Date or termination or expiration of the related option nor will the Company declare or pay any dividend or make any other distribution upon the Common Stock payable to stockholders of record on a date prior to the earlier of the Second Closing Date or termination or expiration of the related option, except in either case as contemplated by the Prospectus.

(f) As soon as practicable, but not later than the date on which the Company would be required to file its reports under the Exchange Act containing such information, the Company will make generally available to its security holders an earnings statement (which need not be audited) covering a period of at least 12 months beginning after the effective date of the Rule 429 Registration Statement, which will satisfy the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act.

(g) During the period when a prospectus relating to the Shares is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, the Company will furnish to you at its expense, subject to the provisions of subsection (d) hereof, copies of the Registration Statements, the Prospectus, any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus hereinafter defined, each preliminary prospectus and all amendments and supplements to any such documents in each case as soon as available and in such quantities as you may reasonably request, for the purposes contemplated by the 1933 Act.

(h) The Company and the Selling Stockholders will cooperate with the Underwriters in qualifying or registering the Shares for sale under the blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as you designate, and will continue such qualifications in effect so long as reasonably required for the distribution of the Shares. The Company shall not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or to file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not currently qualified or where it would be subject to taxation as a foreign corporation.

(i) During the period of two years hereafter, the Company will furnish you and each of the other Underwriters with a copy (in each case, to the extent not publicly available on the Commission’s XXXXX system) (i) as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, of each report filed by the Company with the Commission, any securities exchange or FINRA; (ii) as soon as practicable after the release thereof, of each material press release in respect of the Company that is not disseminated via the Company’s website or a national news service; and (iii) as soon as available, of each report of the Company mailed to stockholders.

-14-

the Commission in accordance with such Rule 430B and Rule 424(b), copies of an amended Prospectus, or, if required by such Rule 430B, a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statements (including an amended Prospectus), containing all information so omitted.

The Company represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Representative, and each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Company and the Representative, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Shares that would constitute an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433, or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 405, required to be filed with the Commission. Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Representative or by the Company and the Representative, as the case may be, is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.” The Company represents that it has treated and agrees that it will treat each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433, and has complied and will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including timely filing with the Commission where required, legending and record-keeping.

(d) You shall not have advised the Company that the Registration Statements, the Disclosure Package, any Issuer Limited Use Free Writing Prospectus, when considered together with the Disclosure Package, or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, contains an untrue statement of fact, which, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, is material or omits to state a fact which, in the opinion of such counsel, is material and is required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

(e) Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, there shall not have occurred any change, or any development involving a prospective change, materially and

-17-

adversely affecting particularly the business or properties of the Company or its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, which, in the judgment of the Representative, makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the Offering or purchase as contemplated hereby.

(f) There shall have been furnished to you, as Representative of the Underwriters, on the First Closing Date or the Second Closing Date, as the case may be, except as otherwise expressly provided below:

(i) An opinion of Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP, counsel for the Company, addressed to the Underwriters and dated the First Closing Date or the Second Closing Date, as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Underwriters.

(2) the Commission has not issued an order preventing or suspending the use of the Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus filed as a part of the Registration Statements or any amendment thereto; no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statements has been issued; and to the best knowledge of the respective signers, no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or contemplated under the 1933 Act; and

There shall not have been any change or decrease specified in the letters referred to in this subparagraph which makes it impractical or inadvisable in the judgment of the Representative to proceed with the Offering or purchase of the Shares as contemplated hereby.

(vii) A certificate of the chief executive officer and the principal financial officer of the Company, dated the First Closing Date or the Second Closing Date, as the case may be, regarding certain statistical or financial figures included or incorporated by reference in the Prospectus which you may reasonably request and which have not been otherwise verified by the letters referred to in clause (vi) above, such verification to include the provision of documentary evidence supporting any such statistical or financial figure.

(ix) Such further certificates and documents as you may reasonably request.

All such opinions, certificates, letters and documents shall be in compliance with the provisions hereof only if they are satisfactory to you and to Sidley Austin LLP, counsel for the Underwriters, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall furnish you with such manually signed or conformed copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and documents as you request.

-19-

SECTION 10. Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses. If the sale to the Underwriters of the Firm Shares on the First Closing Date is not consummated because any condition of the Underwriters’ obligations hereunder is not satisfied or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company or any of the Selling Stockholders to perform any agreement herein or to comply with any provision hereof, unless such failure to satisfy such condition or to comply with any provision hereof is due to the default or omission of any Underwriter, the Company agrees to reimburse you and the other Underwriters upon demand for all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been reasonably incurred by you and them in connection with the proposed purchase and the sale of the Shares. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of this Section 10, Section 8 and Section 12 shall at all times be effective and shall apply.

SECTION 11. Effectiveness of Registration Statements. You and the Company will use your and its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statements and, if such stop order is issued, to obtain as soon as possible the lifting thereof.

SECTION 12. Indemnification. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter or such controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statements, including the information deemed to be part of the Registration Statements at the time specified in Rule 430B, any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact, in the case of the Registration Statements or any amendment or supplement thereto, required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and, in the case of any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and will reimburse each Underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter or such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statements, any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representative, specifically for use therein. In addition to its other obligations under this Section 12(a), the Company agrees that, as an interim measure during the pendency of any claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding arising out of or based upon any statement or omission, or any alleged statement or omission, described in this Section 12(a), it will reimburse the Underwriters on a monthly basis for all reasonable legal and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding, notwithstanding the absence of a judicial determination as to the propriety and enforceability of the Company’s obligation to reimburse the Underwriters for such expenses and the possibility that such payments might later be held to have been improper by a court of competent jurisdiction. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

-20-

(b) Each of the Selling Stockholders agrees severally and not jointly in proportion to the number of Shares to be sold by such Selling Stockholder hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter or such controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation if such settlement is effected with the written consent of such Selling Stockholder), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statements, including the information deemed to be part of the Registration Statements at the time specified in Rule 430B, any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact about such Selling Stockholder required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein about such Selling Stockholder (in the case of any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading; and will reimburse each Underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter or such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the obligations under this Section 12(b) shall only apply to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statements, any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with the Selling Stockholder Information. In addition to its other obligations under this Section 12(b), each of the Selling Stockholders agrees that, as an interim measure during the pendency of any claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding to the extent arising out of or based solely upon any statement or omission, or any alleged statement or omission, in or from the Selling Stockholder Information of such Selling Stockholder, it will reimburse the Underwriters on a monthly basis for all reasonable legal and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding, notwithstanding the absence of a judicial determination as to the propriety and enforceability of such Selling Stockholder’s obligation to reimburse the Underwriters for such expenses and the possibility that such payments might later be held to have been improper by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 12(b), in no event shall the liability of a Selling Stockholder exceed the aggregate gross proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, but before expenses, from the sale of Shares by such Selling Stockholder in the Offering. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Selling Stockholder may otherwise have.

(c) Each Underwriter will severally indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statements, the Selling Stockholders and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company, or any such director, officer, Selling Stockholder or controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of such Underwriter), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statements, any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a

-21-

material fact, in the case of the Registration Statements or any amendment or supplement thereto, required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and, in the case of any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statements, any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with the information referenced in Section 4 of this Agreement (which is the only information furnished by the Underwriters for inclusion therein); and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company, or any such director, officer, Selling Stockholder or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. In addition to their other obligations under this Section 12(c), the Underwriters agree that, as an interim measure during the pendency of any claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding arising out of or based upon any statement or omission, or any alleged statement or omission, described in this Section 12(c), they will reimburse the Company and the Selling Stockholders on a monthly basis for all reasonable legal and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding, notwithstanding the absence of a judicial determination as to the propriety and enforceability of the Underwriters’ obligation to reimburse the Company and the Selling Stockholders for such expenses and the possibility that such payments might later be held to have been improper by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 12 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 12, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party except to the extent that the indemnifying party was prejudiced by such failure to notify. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded based upon the advice of counsel that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, or the indemnified and indemnifying parties may have conflicting interests which would make it inappropriate for the same counsel to represent both of them, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 12 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed such counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defense in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel, approved by the Representative in the case of paragraph (a) representing all indemnified parties not having different or additional defenses or potential conflicting interest among themselves who are parties to such action), (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent

-22-

of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability arising out of such proceeding.

(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 12 is unavailable to an indemnified party under paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) hereof in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each applicable indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters from the Offering or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The respective relative benefits received by the Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters shall be deemed to be in the same proportion, in the case of the Company and the Selling Stockholders, as the total price paid to the Company and the Selling Stockholders for the Shares by the Underwriters (net of underwriting discount but before deducting expenses) bears to, and in the case of the Underwriters, as the underwriting discount received by them bears to, the total of such amounts paid to the Company and the Selling Stockholders and received by the Underwriters as underwriting discount, in each case as contemplated by the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, the Selling Stockholders or the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim.

The Company, each of the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 12(e) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 12(e), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the aggregate underwriting discount or commission applicable to the Shares purchased by such Underwriter pursuant to this Agreement and no Selling Stockholder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the aggregate gross proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, but before expenses, from the sale of Shares by such Selling Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 0000 Xxx) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 12(e) are several in proportion to their respective underwriting commitments and not joint.

(f) The provisions of this Section 12 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Section 13. Default of Underwriters. It shall be a condition to the agreement and obligation of the Company and each of the Selling Stockholders to sell and deliver the Shares hereunder, and of each Underwriter to purchase the Shares hereunder, that, except as hereinafter in this paragraph

-23-

provided, each of the Underwriters shall purchase and pay for all Shares agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter hereunder upon tender to the Representative of all such Shares in accordance with the terms hereof. If any Underwriter or Underwriters default in their obligations to purchase Shares hereunder on the First Closing Date and the aggregate number of Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10 percent of the total number of Shares which the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on the First Closing Date, the Representative may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company and the Selling Stockholders for the purchase of such Shares by other persons, including any of the Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by such date the nondefaulting Underwriters shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the Shares which such defaulting Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase on such date. If any Underwriter or Underwriters so default and the aggregate number of Shares with respect to which such default or defaults occur is more than the above percentage and arrangements satisfactory to the Representative, the Company and the Selling Stockholders for the purchase of such Shares by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any nondefaulting Underwriter or the Company or the Selling Stockholders, except for the expenses to be paid by the Company pursuant to Section 8 hereof and except to the extent provided in Section 12 hereof.

In the event that Shares to which a default relates are to be purchased by the nondefaulting Underwriters or by another party or parties, the Representative or the Company shall have the right to postpone the First Closing Date for not more than seven business days in order that the necessary changes in the Rule 429 Registration Statement, Prospectus and any other documents, as well as any other arrangements, may be effected. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section 13. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

SECTION 14. Effective Date. This Agreement shall become effective immediately as to Sections 8, 10, 12 and 15 and as to all other provisions at 10:00 A.M., Chicago Time, on the day following the date upon which the Pricing Agreement is executed and delivered, unless such a day is a Saturday, Sunday or holiday (and in that event this Agreement shall become effective at such hour on the business day next succeeding such Saturday, Sunday or holiday); but this Agreement shall nevertheless become effective at such earlier time after the Pricing Agreement is executed and delivered as you may determine on and by notice to the Company or by release of any Shares for sale to the public. For the purposes of this Section 14, the Shares shall be deemed to have been so released upon the release for publication of any newspaper advertisement relating to the Shares or upon the release by you of written communications (i) advising Underwriters that the Shares are released for public offering, or (ii) offering the Shares for sale to securities dealers, whichever may occur first.

SECTION 15. Termination. Without limiting the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to any other provision hereof:

(a) This Agreement may be terminated by the Company by notice to you and the Selling Stockholders or by you by notice to the Company and the Selling Stockholders at any time prior to the time this Agreement shall become effective as to all its provisions, and any such termination shall be without liability on the part of the Company or the Selling Stockholders to any Underwriter (except for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed pursuant to Section 8 hereof and except to the extent provided in Section 12 hereof) or of any Underwriter to the Company or the Selling Stockholders.

(b) This Agreement may also be terminated by you prior to the First Closing Date, and the option referred to in Section 5, if exercised, may be cancelled at any time prior to the

-24-

Second Closing Date, if (i) trading in securities on the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market shall have been suspended or minimum prices shall have been established on such exchange or market, or (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared by Illinois, New York, or United States authorities, or (iii) there shall have been any material adverse change in financial markets or any material adverse change in political, economic or financial conditions which, in the opinion of the Representative, either renders it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the Offering and sale of the Shares on the terms set forth in the Prospectus or materially and adversely affects the market for the Shares, or (iv) there shall have been an outbreak of major armed hostilities between the United States and any foreign power or terrorist organization which in the opinion of the Representative makes it impractical or inadvisable to offer or sell the Shares. Any termination pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall be without liability on the part of any Underwriter to the Company or the Selling Stockholders or on the part of the Company or the Selling Stockholders to any Underwriter (except for expenses to be paid or reimbursed pursuant to Section 8 hereof and except to the extent provided in Section 12 hereof).

SECTION 16. Representations and Indemnities to Survive Delivery. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, of its officers, of the Selling Stockholders and of the several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, Selling Stockholder or the Company or any of its or their partners, principals, members, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Shares sold hereunder.

SECTION 17. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the Underwriters will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to you c/o Xxxxxxx Xxxxx & Company, L.L.C., 000 Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, with a copy to Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, c/o Xxxxxx Xxxxxx LLP, Xxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000; if sent to the Company or any of the Selling Stockholders will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to the Company at its corporate headquarters with a copy to Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx, c/o Troutman Xxxxxxx LLP, 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, X.X., Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000; and if sent to one of the Selling Stockholders, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to such Selling Stockholder at such address as they have previously furnished to the Company and the Representative.

SECTION 18. No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. The Company and each of the Selling Stockholders acknowledges and agrees that (a) the purchase and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Shares and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company and the Selling Stockholders, on the one hand, and the several Underwriters, on the other hand, (b) in connection with the Offering and the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, the Selling Stockholders, or its or their stockholders, creditors, employees or any other party, (c) no Underwriter has assumed or will assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or the Selling Stockholders with respect to the Offering or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) and no Underwriter has any obligation to the Company or the Selling Stockholders with respect to the Offering except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (d) the Underwriters and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and the Selling Stockholders and (e) the Underwriters have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the Offering and the Company and the Selling Stockholders have consulted its and their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it and they deemed appropriate.

-25-

SECTION 19. Successors. This Agreement and the Pricing Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors, personal representatives and assigns, and to the benefit of the officers and directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 12, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder. The term “successors” shall not include any purchaser of the Shares as such from any of the Underwriters merely by reason of such purchase.

SECTION 20. Representation of Underwriters. You will act as Representative for the several Underwriters in connection with this financing, and any action under or in respect of this Agreement taken by you will be binding upon all the Underwriters.

SECTION 21. Partial Unenforceability. If any section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement is for any reason determined to be invalid or unenforceable, such determination shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other section, paragraph or provision hereof.

SECTION 22. Applicable Law. This Agreement and the Pricing Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
