conditions stated herein, to issue and sell to the Initial Purchasers named in Schedule I hereto

“Firm Securities”), convertible into shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the
Company (“Stock”), and, at the election of the Initial Purchasers, up to an aggregate of
$20,000,000 additional principal amount of 1.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2018 (the “Optional

1. | The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, each of the Initial Purchasers that: |
(a) | A preliminary offering circular, dated June 13, 2011 (the “Preliminary Offering Circular”) has been prepared and an offering circular, dated June 15, 2011 (the “Offering Circular”) will be prepared in connection with the offering of the Securities and shares of the Stock issuable upon conversion thereof. The Preliminary Offering Circular, as amended and supplemented immediately prior to the Applicable Time (as defined in Section 1(b)), is hereinafter referred to as the “Pricing Circular”. Any reference to the Preliminary Offering Circular, the Pricing Circular or the Offering Circular shall be deemed to refer to and include the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company’s Current Report on |
Form 8-K filed October 29, 2010, as amended by Form 8-K/A filed December 13, 2010, and all documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) subsequent to December 31, 2010 and on or prior to the date of such circular, and any reference to the Preliminary Offering Circular or the Offering Circular, as the case may be, as amended or supplemented, as of any specified date, shall be deemed to include any Additional Issuer Information (as defined in Section 5(f)) furnished by the Company prior to the completion of the distribution of the Securities; and all documents filed under the Exchange Act and so deemed to be included in the Preliminary Offering Circular, the Pricing Circular or the Offering Circular, as the case may be, or any amendment or supplement thereto are hereinafter called the “Exchange Act Reports”. The Exchange Act Reports, when they were or are filed with the Commission, conformed or will conform in all material respects to the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder; and no such documents were filed with the Commission since the Commission’s close of business on the business day immediately prior to the date of this Agreement and prior to the execution of this Agreement, except as set forth on Schedule II(a) hereof. The Preliminary Offering Circular or the Offering Circular and any amendments or supplements thereto and the Exchange Act Reports did not and will not, as of their respective dates, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that this representation and warranty shall not apply to any statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by an Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use therein; |
(b) | For the purposes of this Agreement, the “Applicable Time” is 7:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on the next business day following the date of this Agreement; the Pricing Circular as supplemented by the information set forth in Schedule III hereto, taken together (collectively, the “Pricing Disclosure Package”) as of the Applicable Time, did not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and each Company Supplemental Disclosure Document (as defined in Section 6(a)(ii)) listed on Schedule II(b) hereto does not conflict with the information contained in the Pricing Circular or the Offering Circular and each such Company Supplemental Disclosure Document, as supplemented by and taken together with the Pricing Disclosure Package as of the Applicable Time, did not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that this representation and warranty shall not apply to statements or omissions made in a Company Supplemental Disclosure Document in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by an Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use therein; | ||
(c) | (i) Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has sustained since the date of the latest audited financial statements included in the Pricing Circular any material loss or interference with its business from fire, explosion, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor dispute or court or governmental action, order or decree, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Pricing Circular; and (ii) since the most |
2
recent quarter end date as of which financial information is given in the Pricing Circular, there has not been any (A) change in the capital stock (other than as a result of the exercise of stock options or warrants, or the settlement of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) or the award of stock options or other rights to acquire Stock in the ordinary course of business pursuant to the Company’s stock plans that are described in the Pricing Circular), or (B) change in the long-term debt of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, except for regular payments pursuant to obligations or agreements disclosed in the Pricing Circular and other than the issuance of the Securities, or (C) any material adverse change, or any development involving a prospective material adverse change, in or affecting the general affairs, management, financial position, stockholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole (a “Material Adverse Effect”), otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Pricing Circular; |
(d) | The Company and its subsidiaries have good and marketable title to all personal property (without considering Intellectual Property, which is covered by Section 1(x) hereof) owned by them, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and defects except such as are described in the Pricing Circular or such as do not materially affect the value of such property and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company and its subsidiaries; and any real property and buildings held under lease by the Company and its subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by the Company and its subsidiaries and the Company and its subsidiaries do not own any real property; | ||
(e) | The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with corporate power and authority to own its properties and conduct its business as described in the Pricing Circular, and has been duly qualified as a foreign corporation for the transaction of business and is in good standing under the laws of each other jurisdiction in which it owns or leases properties or conducts any business so as to require such qualification, except where the failure to so qualify or be in good standing would not be reasonably expected, individually or in the aggregate to have a Material Adverse Effect; and each subsidiary of the Company has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization; | ||

3
(g) | The Securities have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered pursuant to this Agreement, will have been duly executed, authenticated, issued and delivered against payment therefor as provided herein and will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company entitled to the benefits provided by the indenture to be dated on or around June 20, 2011 (the “Indenture”) between the Company and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), under which they are to be issued, which will be substantially in the form previously delivered to you; the Indenture has been duly authorized and, when executed and delivered by the Company and the Trustee, the Indenture will constitute a valid and legally binding instrument, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject, as to enforcement, to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles; and the Securities and the Indenture will conform to the descriptions thereof in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Circular and will be in substantially the form previously delivered to you; |
(h) | Neither the issuance, sale and delivery of the Securities nor the use of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities by the Company as described in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Circular will violate or result in a violation of Section 7 of the Exchange Act, or any regulation promulgated thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulations T, U, and X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; | ||
(i) | Prior to the date hereof, neither the Company nor, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, any of its affiliates has taken any action which is designed to or which has constituted or which could reasonably have been expected to cause or result in stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company in connection with the offering of the Securities; | ||
(j) | The issue and sale of the Securities and the compliance by the Company with all of the provisions of the Securities, the Indenture and this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein and therein contemplated will not (i) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is subject, (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of the Company or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of their properties, except with respect to clauses (i) and (iii), for such conflicts, breaches, violations or defaults as would not be reasonably expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect; and no consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any such court or governmental agency or body is required for the issue and sale of the Securities or the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Indenture, except for such consents, approvals, authorizations, registrations or qualifications as may be required under state securities or Blue Sky laws in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers; |
4
(k) | Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is in (i) violation of its charter or organizational documentation or (ii) default in the performance or observance of any material obligation, covenant or condition contained in any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease or other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties may be bound, except in the case of (ii) for such defaults as would not be reasonably expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect; | ||
(l) | The statements set forth in the Pricing Circular and the Offering Circular under the caption “Description of Notes” and “Description of Common Stock”, insofar as they purport to constitute a summary of the terms of the Securities and the Stock, and under the caption “Plan of Distribution”, insofar as they purport to describe the provisions of the documents referred to therein, fairly present, in all material respects, such terms or documents; | ||
(m) | Other than as set forth in the Pricing Circular, there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or of which any property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is the subject which, if determined adversely to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, would be reasonably expected, individually or in the aggregate to have a Material Adverse Effect; and, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or contemplated by governmental authorities or by others; | ||
(n) | When the Securities are issued and delivered pursuant to this Agreement, the Securities will not be of the same class (within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) as securities which are listed on a national securities exchange registered under Section 6 of the Exchange Act or quoted in a U.S. automated inter-dealer quotation system; | ||

(r) | Within the preceding six months, neither the Company nor any other person acting on behalf of the Company has offered or sold to any person any Securities, or any securities of the same or a similar class as the Securities, other than Securities offered or sold to the Initial Purchasers hereunder.

5
status of the offer and sale of the Securities in the United States and to U.S. persons contemplated by this Agreement as transactions exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act; | |||
(s) | The Company maintains a system of internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that complies with the requirements of the Exchange Act and has been designed by the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or under their supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”).

Other than a pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010, no other pro forma financial statements or information are required by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act to be included in the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Circular, assuming that the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Circular were subject to the same disclosure requirements as a registration statement and prospectus relating to the Securities filed pursuant to the Securities Act. |
2. | Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, (a) the Company agrees to issue and sell to each of the Initial Purchasers, and each of the Initial Purchasers agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, at a purchase price of 96.75% of the principal amount thereof, the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the name of such Initial Purchaser in Schedule I hereto, and (b) in the event and to the extent that the Initial Purchasers shall exercise the election to purchase Optional Securities as provided below, the Company agrees to issue and sell to each of the Initial Purchasers, and each of the Initial Purchasers agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, at the same purchase price set forth in clause (a) of this Section 2, that portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Optional Securities as to which such election shall have been exercised (to be adjusted by you so as to eliminate fractions of $1,000) determined by multiplying such aggregate principal amount of Optional Securities by a fraction, the numerator of which is the maximum aggregate principal amount of Optional Securities that such Initial Purchaser is entitled to purchase as set forth opposite the name of such Initial Purchaser in Schedule I hereto and the denominator of which is the maximum aggregate principal amount of Optional Securities that all of the Initial Purchasers are entitled to purchase hereunder. | |
The Company hereby grants to the Initial Purchasers the right to purchase at their election up to $20,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Optional Securities, at the purchase price set forth in clause (a) of the first paragraph of this Section 2 for the sole purpose of covering sales of securities in excess of the aggregate principal amount of Firm Securities.

(f) | At any time when the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, for the benefit of holders from time to time of Securities, to furnish at its expense, upon request, to holders of Securities and prospective purchasers of Securities information (the “Additional Issuer Information”) satisfying the requirements of subsection (d)(4)(i) of Rule 144A under the Securities Act (which may be satisfied by voluntarily filing with the Commission’s XXXXX system); | ||
(g) | To furnish to the holders of the Securities as soon as practicable after the end of each fiscal year an annual report (including a balance sheet and statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries certified by independent public accountants) and, as soon as practicable after the end of each of the first three quarters of each fiscal year (beginning with the fiscal quarter ending after the date of the Offering Circular), to make available to its stockholders consolidated summary financial information of the Company and its subsidiaries for such quarter in reasonable detail; provided, however, that the Company may satisfy its obligations under this Section 5(g) by filing such documents with the Commission’s XXXXX system; | ||

(k) | To use its best efforts to list, subject to notice of issuance, the shares of Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities on the NASDAQ. |
6. | (a) | (i) The Company represents and agrees that, without the prior consent of the Representatives, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that, if |
14
the offering of the Securities contemplated by this Agreement were conducted as a public offering pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act with the Commission, would constitute an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act (any such offer is hereinafter referred to as a “Company Supplemental Disclosure Document”); |
(ii) each Initial Purchaser represents and agrees that, without the prior consent of the Company and the Representatives, other than one or more term sheets relating to the Securities containing customary information and conveyed to purchasers of Securities, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that, if the offering of the Securities contemplated by this Agreement were conducted as a public offering pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act with the Commission, would constitute a “free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act (any such offer (other than any such term sheets), is hereinafter referred to as an “Initial Purchaser Supplemental Disclosure Document”); and | |||
(iii) any Company Supplemental Disclosure Document or Initial Purchaser Supplemental Disclosure Document the use of which has been consented to by the Company and the Representatives is listed on Schedule II(b) hereto; |
7. | The Company covenants and agrees with the several Initial Purchasers that the Company will pay or cause to be paid the following: (i) the fees, disbursements and expenses of the Company’s counsel and accountants in connection with the issue of the Securities and the shares of Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities and all other expenses in connection with the preparation, printing, reproduction and filing of the Preliminary Offering Circular and the Offering Circular and any amendments and supplements thereto and the mailing and delivering of copies thereof to the Initial Purchasers and dealers; (ii) the cost of printing or producing any Agreement among Initial Purchasers, this Agreement, the Indenture, the Blue Sky Memorandum, closing documents (including any compilations thereof) and any other documents in connection with the offering, purchase, sale and delivery of the Securities; (iii) all expenses in connection with the qualification of the Securities and the shares of Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities for offering and sale under state securities laws as provided in Section 5(b) hereof, including the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Initial Purchasers in connection with such qualification and in connection with the Blue Sky and legal investment surveys; (iv) any fees charged by securities rating services for rating the Securities; (v) the cost of preparing the Securities; (vi) the fees and expenses of the Trustee and any agent of the Trustee and the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Trustee in connection with the Indenture and the Securities; (vii) any cost incurred in connection with the listing of the shares of Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities; and (viii) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance of its obligations hereunder which are not otherwise specifically provided for in this Section.

8. | The obligations of the Initial Purchasers hereunder shall be subject, in their discretion, to the condition that all representations and warranties and other statements of the Company herein are, at and as of each Time of Delivery, true and correct, the condition that the Company shall |
15
have performed all of its obligations hereunder theretofore to be performed, and the following additional conditions: |
(a) | Pillsbury Xxxxxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxxx LLP and Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP, counsel for the Initial Purchasers, each shall have furnished to you its written opinion or opinions, in form and substance satisfactory to you, with respect to such matters as you may reasonably request, and such counsel shall have received such papers and information as they may reasonably request to enable them to pass upon such matters; | ||

(e) | (i) Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries shall have sustained since the date of the latest audited financial statements included in the Pricing Circular any material loss or interference with its business from fire, explosion, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor dispute or court or governmental action, order or decree, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Pricing Circular, and (ii) since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Pricing Circular there shall not have been any change in the capital stock (other than as a result of the exercise of stock options or warrants or the settlement of RSUs or the award of stock options or other rights to acquire Stock in the ordinary course of business pursuant to the Company’s stock plans that are described in the Pricing Circular) or change in the long-term debt of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (except for regular payments pursuant to obligations disclosed in or contemplated by the Pricing Circular) or any Material Adverse Effect, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Pricing Circular, the effect of which, in any such case described in clause (i) or (ii), is in your judgment so material and adverse as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or the delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in this Agreement and in the Offering Circular; | ||
(f) | On or after the Applicable Time (i) no downgrading shall have occurred in the rating accorded the Company’s debt securities by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization”, as that term is defined by the Commission for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Securities Act, and (ii) no such organization shall have publicly announced that it has under surveillance or review, with possible negative implications, its rating of any of the Company’s debt securities; | ||

(h) | The shares of Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities shall have been duly listed, subject to notice of issuance, on NASDAQ; | ||

9. | (a) | The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Initial Purchaser may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Offering Circular, the Pricing Circular, the Offering Circular, or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Company Supplemental Disclosure Document, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Initial Purchaser for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchaser in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall 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 any Preliminary Offering Circular, the Pricing Circular, the Offering Circular or any such amendment or supplement, or any Company Supplemental Disclosure Document, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use therein. |
17
(b) | Each Initial Purchaser will indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Offering Circular, the Pricing Circular, the Offering Circular, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Company Supplemental Disclosure Document, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact or necessary to make the statements therein 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 any Preliminary Offering Circular, the Pricing Circular, the Offering Circular or any such amendment or supplement, or any Company Supplemental Disclosure Document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use therein; and will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred. | ||
(c) | Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under such subsection. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party. | ||
(d) | If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other from the offering of the Securities. If, |
18
however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under subsection (c) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers, in each case as set forth in the Offering Circular. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Initial Purchasers on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to investors were offered to investors exceeds the amount of any damages which such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. The Initial Purchasers’ obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint. | |||
(e) | The obligations of the Company under this Section 9 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to any affiliate of each Initial Purchaser and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act; and the obligations of the Initial Purchasers under this Section 9 shall be in addition to any liability which the respective Initial Purchasers may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act. |
10. | (a) | If any Initial Purchaser shall default in its obligation to purchase the Securities which it has agreed to purchase hereunder, you may in your discretion arrange for you or another party or other parties to purchase such Securities on the terms contained herein. If within thirty-six hours after such default by any Initial Purchaser you do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of thirty-six hours within which to procure another party or other parties satisfactory to you to purchase such Securities on such terms. In the event that, within the respective prescribed periods, you |
19
notify the Company that you have so arranged for the purchase of such Securities, or the Company notifies you that it has so arranged for the purchase of such Securities, you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Time of Delivery for a period of not more than seven days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Offering Circular, or in any other documents or arrangements, and the Company agrees to prepare promptly any amendments to the Offering Circular which in your opinion may thereby be made necessary. The term “Initial Purchaser” as used in this Agreement shall include any person substituted under this Section with like effect as if such person had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Securities. |
(b) | If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers by you and the Company as provided in subsection (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities which remains unpurchased does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities, then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Initial Purchaser to purchase the principal amount of Securities which such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder and, in addition, to require each non-defaulting Initial Purchaser to purchase its pro rata share (based on the principal amount of Securities which such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Securities of such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers for which such arrangements have not been made; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability for its default. | ||
(c) | If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers by you and the Company as provided in subsection (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of Securities which remains unpurchased exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in subsection (b) above to require non-defaulting Initial Purchasers to purchase Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers, then this Agreement shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or the Company, except for the expenses to be borne by the Company and the Initial Purchasers as provided in Section 6 hereof and the indemnity and contribution agreements in Section 9 hereof; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability for its default. |
11. | The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the several Initial Purchasers, as set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser or any controlling person of any Initial Purchaser, or the Company, or any officer or director or controlling person of the Company, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. | |
12. | If this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to Section 10 hereof, the Company shall not then be under any liability to any Initial Purchaser except as provided in Sections 7 and 9 hereof; but, if for any other reason, the Securities are not delivered by or on behalf of the Company as provided herein, the Company will reimburse the Initial Purchasers through you for all expenses approved in writing by you, including fees and disbursements of counsel, reasonably incurred by the Initial Purchasers in making preparations for the purchase, sale |
20
and delivery of the Securities, but the Company shall then be under no further liability to any Initial Purchaser except as provided in Sections 7 and 9 hereof. |
13. | In all dealings hereunder, you shall act on behalf of each of the Initial Purchasers, and the parties hereto shall be entitled to act and rely upon any statement, request, notice or agreement on behalf of any Initial Purchaser made or given by you jointly. | |
All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and if to the Initial Purchasers shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to you as the Representatives in care of Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Co., 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000-0000, Attention: Registration Department and in care of Xxxxxxxxx & Company, Inc., 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, Attention: General Counsel; and if to the Company shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to the address of the Company set forth in the Offering Circular, Attention: Secretary; provided, however, that any notice to an Initial Purchaser pursuant to Section 9(c) hereof shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to such Initial Purchaser at its address set forth in its Initial Purchasers’ Questionnaire, or telex constituting such Questionnaire, which address will be supplied to the Company by you upon request. Any such statements, requests, notices or agreements shall take effect upon receipt thereof. | ||
In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Initial Purchasers are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Company, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the Initial Purchasers to properly identify their respective clients. | ||
14. | This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure solely to the benefit of, the Initial Purchasers, the Company and, to the extent provided in Sections 9 and 11 hereof, the officers and directors of the Company and each person who controls the Company or any Initial Purchaser, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. No purchaser of any of the Securities from any Initial Purchaser shall be deemed a successor or assign by reason merely of such purchase. | |
15. | Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement. | |

The Company agrees that it will not claim that the Initial Purchaser, or any of them, has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Company, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto. |
21
17. | This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company and the Initial Purchasers, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. | |
18. | THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY MATTERS RELATED TO THIS TRANSACTION SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. The Company agrees that any suit or proceeding arising in respect of this Agreement or our engagement will be tried exclusively in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York or, if that court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, in any state court located in the City and County of New York and the Company agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of, and to venue in, such courts. | |
19. | The Company and each of the Initial Purchasers hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. | |
20. | This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties hereto in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such respective counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. | |
21. | Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company (and the Company’s employees, representatives, and other agents) are authorized to disclose to any and all persons, the tax treatment and tax structure of the potential transaction and all materials of any kind (including tax opinions and other tax analyses) provided to the Company relating to that treatment and structure, without the Initial Purchasers’ imposing any limitation of any kind. However, any information relating to the tax treatment and tax structure shall remain confidential (and the foregoing sentence shall not apply) to the extent necessary to enable any person to comply with securities laws. For this purpose, “tax treatment” means US federal and state income tax treatment, and “tax structure” is limited to any facts that may be relevant to that treatment. |

counterparts hereof, and upon the acceptance hereof by you, on behalf of each of the Initial
Purchasers, this letter and such acceptance hereof shall constitute a binding agreement between

Free convertibility period

At the option of the holder, holders may convert their notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at any time on or after April 1, 2018 through the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. | |
Fundamental Change
Repurchase Right of
Holders
|
Subject to certain exceptions, if BroadSoft undergoes a fundamental change (as defined in the Preliminary Offering Circular), a holder of the notes will have the option to require BroadSoft to repurchase all or any portion of such holder’s notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes being repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest up to but excluding the relevant repurchase date. | |
Optional Redemption by BroadSoft |
BroadSoft may not redeem the notes prior to July 1, 2015.
Beginning July 1, 2015, BroadSoft may redeem for cash all or part of the notes, except for the notes that BroadSoft is required to repurchase, but only if the last reported sale price of BroadSoft’s common stock for 20 or more trading days in a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the trading day prior to the date BroadSoft provides the notice of redemption exceeds 140% of the conversion price in effect on each such trading day. The redemption price will equal the sum of 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, plus a “make-whole premium” payment in cash, shares of BroadSoft common stock or a combination of cash and shares of BroadSoft common stock, at BroadSoft’s option, equal to the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of interest on the notes to be redeemed through the maturity date (excluding interest accrued to, but excluding, the redemption date). The present values of the remaining interest payments will be computed using a discount rate equal to 2.5%. |
|
If BroadSoft elects to pay some or all of the make-whole premium in shares of BroadSoft common stock, then the number of shares of common stock a holder will receive will be that number of shares that have a value equal to the amount of the make-whole premium payment to be paid to such holder in shares, divided by the product of the average of the closing prices of BroadSoft common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding and including the third day prior to the date of the provisional redemption multiplied by 97.5%. |

The exact stock prices and effective dates may not be set forth in the table above, in which
case:
• | If the stock price is between two stock price amounts in the table or the effective date is between two effective dates in the table, the number of additional shares will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of additional shares set forth for the higher and lower stock price amounts and the two dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year. | ||

Re: BroadSoft, Inc. — Lock-Up Agreement
Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned understands that you, as representatives (the “Representatives”), propose to
enter into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) on behalf of the several initial
purchasers named in Schedule I to such agreement (collectively, the “Purchasers”), with BroadSoft,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), providing for an offering of convertible senior notes
of the Company (the “Notes”) in a transaction not requiring registration under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Notes will be convertible into shares of common
stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”).
In consideration of the agreement by the Purchasers to offer and sell the Notes, and of other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the
undersigned agrees that, during the period specified in the following paragraph (the “Lock-Up
Period”), the undersigned will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to
purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock, or any options or
warrants to purchase any shares of Common Stock, or any securities convertible into, exchangeable
for or that represent the right to receive shares of Common Stock, whether now owned or hereinafter
acquired, owned directly by the undersigned (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to
which the undersigned has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) (collectively, the “Undersigned’s Shares”). The foregoing
restriction is expressly agreed to preclude the undersigned from engaging in any hedging or other
transaction which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a
sale or disposition of the Undersigned’s Shares even if such securities would be disposed of by
someone other than the undersigned. Such prohibited hedging or
Annex I-1
other transactions would include without limitation any short sale or any purchase, sale or
grant of any right (including without limitation any put or call option) with respect to any of the
Undersigned’s Shares or with respect to any security that includes, relates to or derives any
significant part of its value from such securities.
The Lock-Up Period will commence on the date of this Lock-Up Agreement and continue for 45
days after the date of the final offering circular used to sell the Notes.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the undersigned may transfer the Undersigned’s Shares (i) as a
bona fide gift or gifts, provided that the donee or donees thereof agree to be bound in writing by
the restrictions set forth herein, (ii) upon death by will or intestacy, provided that the
recipient agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, (iii) to any trust
for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned,
provided that the trustee of the trust agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth
herein, ; provided with respect to (i), (ii) and (iii) hereof that (X) any such transfer shall not
involve a disposition for value and (Y) no public filings, including but not limited to filings
pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act, or pursuant to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), are required to be filed by the undersigned during
the Lock-Up Period and no such filings are voluntarily filed by the undersigned during the Lock-Up
Period, (iv) with the prior written consent of both Representatives on behalf of the Purchasers or
(v) pursuant to any written plan meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act in
effect on or prior to the date of this Lock-Up Agreement relating to the sale of the Undersigned’s
Shares. For purposes of this Lock-Up Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by
blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin. The undersigned also agrees and
consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar
against the transfer of the Undersigned’s Shares except in compliance with the foregoing
restrictions.
The undersigned understands that the Company and the Purchasers are relying upon this Lock-Up
Agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the offering of the Notes. The undersigned further
understands that this Lock-Up Agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s
heirs, legal representative, successors, and assigns. This Lock-Up Agreement shall automatically
terminate upon the earlier to occur, if any, of (a) the date that the Company advises the
Representatives in writing, prior to the execution of the Purchase Agreement, that it has
determined not to proceed with the offering of the Notes, or (b) termination of the Purchase
Agreement before the closing of the offering of the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
event that the offering of the Notes is not consummated on or before June 30, 2011, this Lock-Up
Agreement shall terminate and its provisions shall be of no further force and effect.

(i) | We are an independent registered public accounting firm with respect to the Company and its subsidiaries within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and the applicable published rules and regulations thereunder adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Public Accounting Oversight Board (United States); | |
(ii) | In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedules audited by us and incorporated by reference in the Offering Circular comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the related published rules and regulations; | |
(iii) | The unaudited summary financial information with respect to the consolidated results of operations and financial position of the Company for the [•] most recent fiscal years included in the Offering Circular agrees with the corresponding amounts (after restatements where applicable) in the audited consolidated financial statements for such [•] fiscal years; | |
(iv) | On the basis of limited procedures not constituting an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, consisting of a reading of the unaudited financial statements and other information referred to below, a reading of the latest available interim financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, inspection of the minute books of the Company and its subsidiaries since the date of the latest audited financial statements incorporated by reference in the Offering Circular, inquiries of officials of the Company and its subsidiaries responsible for financial and accounting matters and such other inquiries and procedures as may be specified in such letter, nothing came to their attention that caused them to believe that: |

Annex II-1
basis for the audited consolidated financial statements incorporated by reference in the Offering Circular; |
(D) | any unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the Offering Circular do not comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements or the pro forma adjustments have not been properly applied to the historical amounts in the compilation of those statements; | ||
(E) | as of a specified date not more than five days prior to the date of such letter, there have been any changes in the consolidated capital stock (other than issuances of capital stock upon exercise of options or warrants or settlement of RSUs and upon conversions of convertible securities, in each case which were outstanding on the date of the latest financial statements incorporated by reference in the Offering Circular or any increase in the consolidated long-term debt of the Company and its subsidiaries, or any decreases in consolidated net current assets or stockholders’ equity or other items specified by the Representatives, or any increases in any items specified by the Representatives, in each case as compared with amounts shown in the latest balance sheet incorporated by reference in the Offering Circular except in each case for changes, increases or decreases which the Offering Circular discloses have occurred or may occur or which are described in such letter; and | ||
(F) | for the period from the date of the latest financial statements incorporated by reference in the Offering Circular to the specified date referred to in clause (E) there were any decreases in consolidated net revenues or operating profit or the total or per share amounts of consolidated net income or other items specified by the Representatives, or any increases in any items specified by the Representatives, in each case as compared with the comparable period of the preceding year and with any other period of corresponding length specified by the Representatives, except in each case for decreases or increases which the Offering Circular discloses have occurred or may occur or which are described in such letter; and |
(v) | In addition to the examination referred to in their report(s) included in the Offering Circular and the limited procedures, inspection of minute books, inquiries and other procedures referred to in paragraphs (iii) and (iv) above, they have carried out certain specified procedures, not constituting an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, with respect to certain amounts, percentages and financial information specified by the Representatives, which are derived from the general accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries, which appear or are incorporated by reference in the Offering Circular, and have compared certain of such amounts, percentages and financial information with the accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries and have found them to be in agreement. |
