WHEREAS, the Purchaser has a substantive, pre-existing relationship with the Company;

WHEREAS, the Company has filed a registration statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-173321) (the “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with a proposed initial public offering (the “IPO”) of [            ] shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”); and

WHEREAS, concurrent with the consummation of the IPO, the Company desires to issue and sell, and the Purchaser desires to purchase, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, [            ] shares of Common Stock (the “Private Placement Shares” and each, a “Private Placement Share”).

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

1. Sale and Purchase of Private Placement Shares. Subject to and concurrent with the consummation of the IPO, the Company shall issue and sell to the Purchaser and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Company, at a purchase price per Private Placement Share equal to the public offering price per share of Common Stock sold in the IPO (the “Purchase Price”), the Private Placement Shares for an aggregate purchase price of [             ], subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

2. Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Private Placement Shares hereunder (the “Closing”), including payment for and delivery of the Private Placement Shares, will take place at the offices of the Company or the Company’s legal counsel concurrently with, and shall be subject to, the completion of the IPO. At the Closing, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser one or more certificates evidencing the Private Placement Shares, registered in the Purchaser’s or its designee’s name, upon the payment by the Purchaser of the Purchase Price multiplied by the number of Private Placement Shares in immediately available funds by wire transfer to an account designated by the Company.

3. Representations and Warranties of the Company. In connection with the issuance and sale of the Private Placement Shares, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser the following:

3.1 The Company is a corporation duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland and the Company has all necessary corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below), and to consummate the transactions contemplated

hereby and in the Registration Statement and to own or lease and operate its assets and carry on its business as described in the Registration Statement.

3.2 All corporate action necessary to be taken by the Company to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and all other agreements and instruments delivered by the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby has been duly and validly taken and this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company. This Agreement constitutes the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or similar laws of general application now or hereafter in effect affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity). The issuance and sale by the Company of the Private Placement Shares does not conflict with its organizational documents or any material contract by which the Company or its property or assets is bound, or any federal or state laws or regulations or decree, ruling or judgment of any United States or state court applicable to the Company or its property or assets.

3.3 Upon issuance in accordance with, and payment pursuant to, the terms hereof, the Private Placement Shares will be fully paid and non-assessable and the Purchaser will have good title to the Private Placement Shares free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances of any kind, other than transfer restrictions hereunder and under other agreements contemplated hereby.

3.4 The Company has a substantive, pre-existing relationship with the Purchaser and directly contacted the Purchaser or its agents outside of the IPO effort. The Company (i) did not identify or contact the Purchaser through the marketing of the IPO and (ii) was not independently contacted by the Purchaser as a result of the general solicitation by means of the Registration Statement.

4. Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. The Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:

4.1 The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The Purchaser has accurately completed the Accredited Investor Questionnaire attached hereto as Exhibit A indicating the basis for such Purchaser’s accredited investor status.

4.2 The Private Placement Shares are being acquired for the Purchaser’s own account, only for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any public distribution or public offering thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act.

4.3 If an entity, the Purchaser has been duly organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization or formation and has all necessary power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to

4.4 If an entity, all action necessary to be taken by the Purchaser to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all other agreements and instruments delivered by the Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby has been duly and validly taken. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser, and constitutes the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or similar laws of general application now or hereafter in effect affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity). The purchase by the Purchaser of the Private Placement Shares does not conflict with its organizational documents (if an entity) or any material contract by which the Purchaser or its property or assets is bound, or any federal or state laws or regulations or decree, ruling or judgment of any United States or state court applicable to the Purchaser or its property or assets.

4.5 The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (i) the offering of the Private Placement Shares pursuant to this Agreement will not be registered under the Securities Act on the grounds that the offering and sale of the Private Placement Shares is exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D thereof and exempt from registration pursuant to applicable state securities or blue sky laws and, therefore, the Private Placement Shares will be characterized as “restricted securities” under the Securities Act and such laws and may not be sold unless the Private Placement Shares are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and qualified under state law or unless an exemption from such registration and such qualification is available.

4.6 The Purchaser has a substantive, pre-existing relationship with the Company and was directly contacted by the Company or the Company’s agents outside of the IPO effort. The Purchaser (i) was not identified or contacted through the marketing of the IPO and (ii) did not independently contact the Company as a result of the general solicitation by means of the Registration Statement.

4.7 The Purchaser (i) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Purchaser’s prospective investment in the Private Placement Shares; (ii) has the ability to bear the economic risks of the Purchaser’s prospective investment; and (iii) has not been offered the Private Placement Shares by any form of advertisement, article, notice, or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar medium; or broadcast over television or radio; or any seminar or meeting whose attendees have been invited by any such medium. The Purchaser (i) has been furnished with the materials relating to the business, operations, financial condition, assets and liabilities of the Company and other matters relevant to the Purchaser’s investment in the Private Placement Shares, which

have been requested by the Purchaser and (ii) the Purchaser has had adequate opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the officers, employees, agents, accountants and representatives of the Company concerning the business, operations, financial condition, assets and liabilities of the Company and all other matters relevant to the Purchaser’s investment in the Private Placement Shares.
