further advised by you that the Shares are to be offered to the public initially at $30.25 a share

concession not in excess of $0.862 a share under the Public Offering Price.
5. Payment and Delivery. Payment for the Firm Shares to be sold by each Selling Stockholder
shall be made to such Selling Stockholder in Federal or other funds immediately available in New
York City against delivery of such Firm Shares for the respective accounts of the several

is defined for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Securities Act; and
(ii) there shall not have occurred any change, or any development involving a
prospective change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business

Agreement are true and correct as of the Closing Date and that the Company has complied with all of
the agreements and satisfied all of the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied
hereunder on or before the Closing Date.
The officer signing and delivering such certificate may rely upon his or her knowledge as to
proceedings threatened.
(c) The Underwriters shall have received on the Closing Date (i) from Skadden, Arps, Slate,

the Company or one or more of the Selling Stockholders, as the case may be, and shall so state
therein.

letter dated the date hereof or the Closing Date, as the case may be, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Underwriters and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP,
independent public accountants, containing statements and information of the type ordinarily
included in accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters with respect to the financial statements
and certain financial information contained in or incorporated by reference into the Registration
Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus; provided that the letter delivered on
the Closing Date shall use a “cut-off date” not earlier than the date hereof.
(g) The “lock-up” agreements, each substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, between you
and certain shareholders, officers and directors of the Company listed on Exhibit A-1 relating to
sales and certain other dispositions of shares of Common Stock or certain other securities,

7. Covenants of the Company. The Company covenants with each Underwriter as follows:
(a) To furnish to you, without charge, five signed copies of the Registration Statement
(including exhibits thereto) and for delivery to each other Underwriter a conformed copy of the

(b) Subject to Section 7(e) below, before amending or supplementing the Registration

any prospectus required to be filed pursuant to such Rule.
(c) To furnish to you a copy of each proposed free writing prospectus to be prepared by or on

writing prospectus to which you reasonably object.
(d) Not to take any action that would result in an Underwriter or the Company being required
to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act a free writing
prospectus prepared by or on behalf of the Underwriter that the Underwriter otherwise would not
have been required to file thereunder.
(e) If the Time of Sale Prospectus is being used to solicit offers to buy the Shares at a time
when the Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers and any event shall occur or
condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale
Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances, not
misleading, or if any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which the Time of Sale
Prospectus conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement then on file, or
if, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time
of Sale Prospectus to comply with applicable law, forthwith to prepare, file with the Commission
and furnish, at its own expense, to the Underwriters and to any dealer upon request, either
amendments or supplements to the Time of Sale Prospectus so that the statements in the Time of Sale
Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Time
of Sale Prospectus is delivered to a prospective purchaser, be misleading or so that the Time of
Sale Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will no longer conflict with the Registration
Statement, or so that the Time of Sale Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will comply with
applicable law.
(f) If, during such period after the first date of the public offering of the Shares as in the
opinion of counsel for the Underwriters the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to
in Rule 173(a) of the Securities Act) is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales
by an Underwriter or dealer, any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is
necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the
light of the circumstances when the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule
173(a) of the Securities Act) is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or if, in the opinion of
counsel for the Underwriters, it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with
applicable law, forthwith to prepare,
18
file with the Commission and furnish, at its own expense, to the Underwriters and to the
dealers (whose names and addresses you will furnish to the Company) to which Shares may have been
sold by you on behalf of the Underwriters and to any other dealers upon request, either amendments
or supplements to the Prospectus so that the statements in the Prospectus as so amended or
supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof
the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) of the Securities Act) is delivered to a purchaser, be
misleading or so that the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will comply with applicable law.
(g) To endeavor to qualify the Shares for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws
of such jurisdictions as you shall reasonably request; provided in no event shall the Company or
any of its subsidiaries be obligated to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in any
jurisdiction where it is not already so qualified, to file any general consent to service of
process, or to subject itself to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not already subject to
taxation.
(h) To make generally available to the Company’s security holders and to you as soon as

Rule 158 under the Securities Act) and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

9. Covenants of the Underwriters. Each Underwriter severally covenants with the Company not
to take any action that would result in the Company being required to file with the Commission
under Rule 433(d) a free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter that
otherwise would not be required to be filed by the Company thereunder, but for the action of the
Underwriter.
10. Indemnity and Contribution. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each
Underwriter, each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section
15 of the Securities Act or
20
Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each affiliate of any Underwriter (within the meaning of
Rule 405 under the Securities Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and
liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in
connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any
amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any issuer free writing
prospectus as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act, any Company information that the
Company has filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, or the
Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by
any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon
information relating to any Underwriter or Selling Stockholder, in the case of the Underwriters,
furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through you expressly for use therein.
(b) Each Selling Stockholder, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
each Underwriter, each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either
Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and each affiliate of any
Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act from and against any and all
losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused
by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration
Statement or any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any
issuer free writing prospectus as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act, any Company
information that the Company has filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the
Securities Act, or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or caused by any omission
or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, but only with reference to information relating to such
Selling Stockholder furnished to the Company in writing by such Selling Stockholder expressly for
use in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any
issuer free writing prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto. The
liability of each Selling Stockholder under the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 10
shall be limited to an amount equal to (i) the number of Shares sold by such Selling Stockholder
under this Agreement multiplied by (ii) the Public Offering Price (minus related underwriting
discounts and commissions).
21
(c) Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, the Selling Stockholders, the directors of the Company, the officers of the Company who
sign the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company or any Selling

caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only with reference to
information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter
through you expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Time
of Sale Prospectus, any issuer free writing prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto.
(d) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted
involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 10(a), 10(b)
or 10(c), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such
indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon
request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified
party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in
such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such
proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own
counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified
party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the
retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded
parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both
parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests
between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal
expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the
same jurisdiction, be liable for (i) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in
addition to any local counsel) for all Underwriters and all persons, if any, who control any
Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
22
Exchange Act or who are affiliates of any Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under the
Securities Act, (ii) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local
counsel) for the Company, its directors, its officers who sign the Registration Statement and each
person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either such Section and (iii) the
fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Selling
Stockholders and all persons, if any, who control any Selling Stockholder within the meaning of
either such Section, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred.
In the case of any such separate firm for the Underwriters and such control persons and affiliates
of any Underwriters, such firm shall be designated in writing by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. Incorporated.
In the case of any such separate firm for the Company, and such directors, officers and control
persons of the Company, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Company. In the case of
any such separate firm for the Selling Stockholders and such control persons of any Selling
Stockholders, such firm shall be designated in writing by the persons named as attorneys in fact
for the Selling Stockholders under the Powers of Attorney. The indemnifying party shall not be
liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled
with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees
to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such
settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified
party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and
expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the
indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected
without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt
by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have
reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such
settlement and (iii) such indemnified party shall have given the indemnifying party at least 30
days’ prior written notice of its intention to settle. No indemnifying party shall, without the
prior written consent 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 (x) includes an
unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject
matter of such proceeding and (y) 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.
(e) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 10(a), 10(b) or 10(c) is
unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of
indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by
such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i)
23
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the
indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other
hand from the offering of the Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 10(e)(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 10(e)(i) above but also the relative fault of the
indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and of the indemnified party or parties on the other
hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages
or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits
received by the Company and the Selling Stockholders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the
other hand in connection with the offering of the Shares shall be deemed to be in the same
respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Shares (before deducting
expenses) received by the Selling Stockholders and the total underwriting discounts and commissions
received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the
Prospectus, bear to the aggregate Public Offering Price of the Shares. The relative fault of the
Company and the Selling Stockholders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand 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 or the Selling Stockholders or by the Underwriters and the
parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to
this Section 10 are several in proportion to the respective number of Shares they have purchased
hereunder, and not joint.
(f) The Company and the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters agree that it would not be
just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10 were determined by pro rata
allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other
method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in
Section 10(e). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 10(e) shall be deemed to include, subject to
the limitations set forth above, 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 Section 10, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute
any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Shares underwritten by it
and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that
such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from
any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in
this
24
Section 10 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be
available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.
(g) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 10 and the
representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Selling Stockholders
contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of 1)
any termination of this Agreement, 2) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter,
any person controlling any Underwriter or any affiliate of any Underwriter, any Selling Stockholder
or any person controlling any Selling Stockholder or, the Company, its officers or directors or any
person controlling the Company and 3) acceptance of and payment for any of the Shares.
11. Termination. The Underwriters may terminate this Agreement by notice given by you to the
Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i)
trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be,
either the New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ Global Market, (ii) trading of any securities of
the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (iii) a
material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States
shall have occurred, (iv) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared
by Federal or New York State authorities or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or
escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in
your judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified
in this clause (v), makes it, in your judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the
offer, sale or delivery of the Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of
Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus.
12. Effectiveness; Defaulting Underwriters. This Agreement shall become effective upon the
execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.
If, on the Closing Date or an Option Closing Date, as the case may be, any one or more of the
Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Shares that it has or they have agreed to purchase
hereunder on such date, and the aggregate number of Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or
Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate
number of the Shares to be purchased on such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated
severally in the proportions that the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite their respective
names in Schedule II bears to the aggregate number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the names of
all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as you may specify, to purchase
the Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to
purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the number of Shares that
25
any Underwriter has agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to
this Section 12 by an amount in excess of one-ninth of such number of Shares without the written
consent of such Underwriter. If, on the Closing Date, any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail
or refuse to purchase Firm Shares and the aggregate number of Firm Shares with respect to which
such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be purchased
on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to you, the Company and the attorneys in fact for the
Selling Stockholders for the purchase of such Firm Shares are not made within 36 hours after such
default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting
Underwriter, the Company or the Selling Stockholders. In any such case either you or the relevant
Selling Stockholder shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer
than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Registration Statement, in the
Time of Sale Prospectus, in the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be
effected. If, on an Option Closing Date, any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to
purchase Additional Shares and the aggregate number of Additional Shares with respect to which such
default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Additional Shares to be purchased
on such Option Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall have the option to (i) terminate
their obligation hereunder to purchase the Additional Shares to be sold on such Option Closing Date
or (ii) purchase not less than the number of Additional Shares that such non-defaulting
Underwriters would have been obligated to purchase in the absence of such default. Any action
taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect
of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.
If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters, or any of them, because of any
failure or refusal on the part of the Company to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the
conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company shall be unable to perform its
obligations under this Agreement (which, for the purposes of this Section 12, shall not include termination by the Underwriters under items (i), (iii), (iv) or (v)
of Section 11, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters or such Underwriters as have so
terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses
(including the fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Underwriters in
connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.
13. Entire Agreement. (a) This Agreement, together with any contemporaneous written
agreements and any prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement) that
relate to the offering of the Shares, represents the entire agreement between the Company and the
Selling Stockholders, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, with respect to
26
the preparation of any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus,
the conduct of the offering, and the purchase and sale of the Shares.
(b) The Company acknowledges that in connection with the offering of the Shares: (i) the
Underwriters have acted at arms length, are not agents of, and owe no fiduciary duties to, the
Company or any other person, (ii) the Underwriters owe the Company only those duties and
obligations set forth in this Agreement and prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded
by this Agreement), if any, and (iii) the Underwriters may have interests that differ from those of
the Company. The Company waives to the full extent permitted by applicable law any claims it may
have against the Underwriters arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with
the offering of the Shares.
14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of which
shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the
same instrument.
15. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of New York.
16. Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for
convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed a part of this Agreement.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
I understand that Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. Incorporated and X.X. Xxxxxx Securities LLC (the
“Representatives”) proposes to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”)
with DigitalGlobe, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), providing for the public offering
(the “Public Offering”) by the several Underwriters, including the Representatives (the
“Underwriters”), of shares (the “Shares”) of the Common Stock, par value $0.001 of the Company (the
“Common Stock”).
To induce the Underwriters that may participate in the Public Offering to continue their
efforts in connection with the Public Offering, I agree that, without the prior written consent of
the Representatives acting on behalf of the Underwriters, I will not, during the period commencing
on the date hereof and ending 60 days after the date of the final prospectus (e.g. the date of
pricing of the Public Offering) relating to the Public Offering (the “Prospectus”), (1) offer,
pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or
contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or
dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into
or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock or (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement
that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of
the Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be
settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise. This
restriction is referred to as the “Lock up.”
The Lock Up shall not apply to (a) transactions relating to shares of Common Stock or other
securities acquired in open market transactions after the
completion of the Public Offering,
provided that no filing under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”), shall be
required or shall be voluntarily made in connection with subsequent sales of Common Stock or
other securities acquired in such open market transactions, (b) transfers of shares of Common Stock
to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, (c) transfers of shares of Common Stock
or any security convertible into Common Stock as a bona fide gift or gifts, (d) transfers of shares
of Common Stock or any security convertible into Common Stock to any trust for the direct or
indirect benefit of me or my immediate family, (e) transfers of shares of Common Stock or any
security convertible into Common Stock by testate or intestate succession; (f) distributions of
shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into Common Stock to my limited partners,
members or stockholders, or transfers thereof to any corporation, partnership or other business
entity that is my direct or indirect affiliate, (g) transfers of shares to any corporation,
partnership or other business entity with whom I share in common an investment manager or advisor,
in each case who has investment discretionary authority with respect to my and such entity’s
investments pursuant to an investment management, investment advisory or similar agreement;
provided that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (c) through (g), (i)
each donee, distributee or transferee shall agree to be bound in writing by the restrictions set
forth herein, and (ii) no filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, reporting a reduction in
beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock, shall be required or shall be voluntarily made
during the restricted period referred to in the foregoing sentence, or (h) the transfers of shares
of Common Stock made under a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act (a “10b5-1
Trading Plan”) which 10b5-1 Trading Plan is in existence on the date hereof or (ii) the
establishment of a 10b5-1 Trading Plan for the transfer of shares of Common Stock, provided that
such 10b5-1 Trading Plan does not provide for the transfer of Common Stock during the restricted
period. For purposes of this agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood,
marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin. In addition, I agree that, without the
prior written consent of the Representatives acting on behalf of the Underwriters, I will not,
during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending 60 days after the date of the
Prospectus, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any
shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common
Stock.
I also agree and consent to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s
transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of my shares of Common Stock except in compliance
with the Lock Up.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an individual or entity (other than the Company) is
released, in full or in part, from the restrictions of any lock-up agreement with the Underwriters
related to the Public Offering (each, a “Lock-Up Agreement”), then the undersigned shall be
released in the same manner from the restrictions of this Lock-Up Agreement (i.e. in the case where
shares of such individual or entity are released from a Lock-Up Agreement, the same percentage of
shares of Common Stock held by the undersigned shall be released from the
2
restrictions of this agreement on the same terms), provided that if the release, in full or in
part, of an individual or entity from the restrictions of its Lock-Up Agreement is in connection
with a follow-on offering of Common Stock (the “Follow-On Offering”), then shares of Common Stock
of the undersigned shall be released only if the undersigned enters into a new lock-up agreement
with the Underwriters with substantially the same terms and restrictions that are applicable to the
other selling stockholders participating in the Follow-On Offering (including that the expiration
of the new lock-up may be up to 60 days from the date of such Follow-On Offering, subject to
extension on the same terms as set forth herein) and only to the extent that the undersigned agrees
to participate as a selling stockholder in the Follow-On Offering and to sell any shares of Common
Stock released from the restrictions of this agreement in such Follow-On Offering. In the event
that the undersigned is released from any of its obligations under this agreement or, by virtue of
this agreement, becomes entitled to offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, or otherwise dispose of
any Shares (or any securities convertible into Shares) prior to the date that is 60 days after the
date of the Prospectus, the Representatives shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to
notify the undersigned within three (3) business days; provided that the failure to give such
notice shall not give rise to any claim or liability against the Company, the Representatives or
the Underwriters.
This agreement shall automatically terminate and be of no further effect upon the earliest to
occur, if any, of: (i) the Company advising the Representatives in writing, prior to execution of
the Underwriting Agreement, that it has determined not to proceed with the Public Offering, (ii)
the termination of the Underwriting Agreement before the sale of any Shares to the Underwriters,
and (iii) November 15, 2010 if a closing for the Offering has not yet occurred as of that time.
I understand that the Company and the Underwriters are relying upon this agreement in
proceeding toward consummation of the Public Offering. I further understand that this agreement is
irrevocable and shall be binding upon my heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.
3
Whether or not the Public Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including
market conditions. Any Public Offering will only be made pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement,
the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Underwriters.
