obligation in respect of any Employee Benefit Plan subject to Part 3 of Subtitle B of
Title I of ERISA, Title IV of ERISA, or Section 412 of the Code or any “multiemployer
plan” as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA or any multiple employer plan for which the
Company or any ERISA Affiliate has incurred or could incur liability under Section 4063
or 4064 of ERISA. No Employee Benefit Plan provides or promises, or at any time
provided or promised, retiree health, life insurance, or other retiree welfare benefits
except as may be required by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985,
as amended, or similar state law. Each Employee Benefit Plan is and has been operated
in material compliance with its terms and all applicable laws, including but not limited
to ERISA and the Code and, to the knowledge of the Company, no event has occurred
(including a “reportable event” as such term is defined in Section 4043 of ERISA) and no
condition exists that would subject the Company or any ERISA Affiliate to any material
tax, fine, lien, penalty or liability imposed by ERISA, the Code or other applicable
law. Each Employee Benefit Plan intended to be qualified under Code Section 401(a) is
so qualified and has a favorable determination or opinion letter from the IRS upon which
it can rely, and any such determination or opinion letter remains in effect and has not
been revoked; to the knowledge of the Company, nothing has occurred since the date of
any such determination or opinion letter that is reasonably likely to adversely affect
such qualification. (ii) The Company does not have any obligations under any collective
bargaining agreement with any union and, to the Company’s knowledge, no organization

means any “employee benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA,
including, without limitation, all stock purchase, stock option, stock-based severance,
employment, change-in-control, medical, disability, fringe benefit, bonus, incentive,
deferred compensation, employee loan and all other employee benefit plans, agreements,
programs, policies or other arrangements, whether or not subject to ERISA, under which
(A) any current or former employee, director or independent contractor of the Company or
its subsidiaries has any present or future right to benefits and which are contributed
to, sponsored by or maintained by the Company or any of its respective subsidiaries or
(B) the Company or any of its subsidiaries has had or has any present or future
obligation or liability; “ERISA” means the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974, as amended; and “ERISA Affiliate” means any member of the company’s controlled
group as defined in Code Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o).
(v) Accurate Disclosure. The statements in the General Disclosure Package and the

Relationships and Related Party Transactions,” “Description of Capital Stock,” “Shares
Eligible for Future Sale,” “Certain United States Federal Tax Considerations” and
“Certain Relationships and Related Party Transaction” insofar as such statements
summarize legal matters, agreements, documents or proceedings discussed therein, are
accurate,
7

proceedings and present the information required to be shown.
(w) Absence of Manipulation. The Company has not taken, directly or indirectly,
any action that is designed to or that has constituted or that would reasonably be
expected to cause or result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any
security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Offered Securities.
(x) Statistical and Market-Related Data. Any third-party statistical and
market-related data included in a Registration Statement, a Statutory Prospectus, the
General Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus are based on or derived from sources
that the Company believes to be reliable and accurate.
(y) Independent Public Accountants. Ernst & Young LLP, who have certified certain
financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, are independent public
accountants as required by the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission
thereunder. Except as preapproved in accordance with the requirements set forth in
Section 10A of the Exchange Act, Ernst & Young LLP, have not been engaged by the Company
to perform any “prohibited activities” (as defined in such Section 10A) of the Exchange
Act.
(z) Internal Controls and Compliance with the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act. Except as set
forth in the General Disclosure Package, the Company, its subsidiaries and the Company’s
Board of Directors (the “Board”) are in compliance with applicable provisions of
Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx and all applicable Exchange Rules. The Company maintains a system of
internal controls, including, but not limited to, disclosure controls and procedures,
internal controls over accounting matters and financial reporting, an internal audit
function and legal and regulatory compliance controls (collectively, “Internal
Controls”) that comply with the applicable Securities Laws and are sufficient to provide
reasonable assurances that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s
general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. General Accepted
Accounting Principles and to maintain accountability for assets, (iii) access to assets
is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and
(iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at
reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.
The Internal Controls are, or upon consummation of the offering of the Offered
Securities will be, overseen by the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board
in accordance with applicable Exchange Rules. The Company has not publicly disclosed or
reported to the Audit Committee or the Board, and within the next 135 days
the Company does not reasonably expect to publicly disclose or report to the Audit
Committee or the Board, a significant deficiency, a material weakness, a material change
in Internal Controls or fraud involving management or other employees who have a
significant role in Internal Controls (each, an “Internal Control Event”), any violation
of, or failure to comply with, the Securities Laws, or any matter which, if determined
adversely, would have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
(aa) Absence of Accounting Issues. A member of the Audit Committee has confirmed
to the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or General Counsel that, except
as set forth in the General Disclosure Package, the Audit Committee is not reviewing or
investigating, and neither the Company’s independent auditors nor its internal auditors
have recommended that the Audit Committee review or investigate, (i) adding to,
deleting, changing the application of, or changing the Company’s disclosure with respect
to, any of the Company’s material accounting policies; (ii) any matter which could
result in a restatement of the Company’s financial statements for any annual or interim
period during the current or prior three fiscal years; or (iii) any Internal Control
Event.
(bb) Litigation. Except as disclosed in the General Disclosure Package, there are
no pending actions, suits or proceedings (including any inquiries or investigations by
any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign) against or affecting the
Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or any Employee
Benefit Plan that, if determined adversely to the Company
8
or any of its subsidiaries, would individually or in the aggregate have a Material
Adverse Effect, or would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Company to
perform its obligations under this Agreement, or which are otherwise material in the
context of the sale of the Offered Securities; and no such actions, suits or proceedings
(including any inquiries or investigations by any court or governmental agency or body,
domestic or foreign) are, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened or contemplated.
(cc) Financial Statements. The financial statements included in each Registration
Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Company and its consolidated
subsidiaries as of the dates shown and their results of operations and cash flows for
the periods shown, and such financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States applied on a
consistent basis; the schedules, if any, included in each Registration Statement present
fairly the information required to be stated therein; and the assumptions used in
preparing the pro forma financial statements included in each Registration Statement,
the General Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus provide a reasonable basis for
presenting the significant effects directly attributable to the transactions or events
described therein, the related pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those

(c) Absence of Defaults and Conflicts Resulting from Transaction. The execution,
delivery and performance of the Custody Agreement, the Power of Attorney and this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated therein and herein will
not result in a breach by such
11
Selling Stockholder or violation by such Selling Stockholder of any of the terms

Effective Times, (B) on the date of this Agreement and (C) on each Closing Date, each of
the Initial Registration Statement and the Additional Registration Statement (if any)
will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, and (ii) on its date, at the time of filing of the Final Prospectus pursuant
to Rule 424(b) or (if no such filing is required) at the Effective Time of the
Additional Registration Statement in which the Final Prospectus is included, and on each
Closing Date, the Final Prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made not
misleading. The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from any
such document based upon written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter
through the Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed
that the only such information is that described as such in Section 8(c) hereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, with respect to each Selling Stockholder, the
first sentence of this subsection (e) applies only to statements in or omissions from
any Registration Statement, Statutory Prospectus or the Final Prospectus that are made
in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company by such
Selling Stockholder expressly for use therein (“Selling Stockholder Information”), it
being understood and agreed that the only Selling Stockholder Information consists
solely of the information relating to such Selling Stockholder under the caption
“Principal and Selling Stockholders” in any Statutory Prospectus or the Final
Prospectus.
(f) General Disclosure Package. As of the Applicable Time, neither (i) the General
Disclosure Package nor (ii) any individual Limited Use Issuer Free Writing Prospectus,
when considered together with the General Disclosure Package, included any untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted 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. The preceding sentence (x) with respect to any Selling Stockholder
applies only to the extent that any statements in or omissions from the General
Disclosure Package or any Limited Use Issuer Free Writing Prospectus are based on
Selling Stockholder Information and (y) does not apply to statements in or omissions
from any such document based upon written information furnished to the Company by any
Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein, it being
understood and agreed that the only such information is that described as such in
Section 8(c) hereof.
(g) Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses. All Selling Stockholder Information contained
in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, as of its issue date and at all subsequent times
through the completion
12
of the public offer and sale of the Offered Securities or until any earlier date
that such Selling Stockholder notified or notifies the Company, Credit Suisse Securities
(USA) LLC as described in the next sentence, did not, does not and will not include any
information that conflicted, conflicts or will conflict with the information then
contained in the Registration Statement. If at any time following issuance of an Issuer
Free Writing Prospectus there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of
which such Selling Stockholder Information, if republished immediately following such
event or development, conflicted or would conflict with the information then contained
in the Registration Statement or as a result of which such Selling Stockholder
Information would include an untrue statement of a material fact if omitted or would
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, such Selling
Stockholder has promptly notified or will promptly notify the Company and Credit Suisse
Securities (USA) LLC and will provide the Company with all necessary information so as
to correct such untrue statement or omission.
(h) No Undisclosed Material Information. The sale of the Offered Securities by
such Selling Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement is not prompted by any material

General Disclosure Package.
(i) Authorization of Agreement. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed
and delivered by, or on behalf of, such Selling Stockholder.
(j) No Finder’s Fee. Except as disclosed in the General Disclosure Package, there
are no contracts, agreements or understandings between such Selling Stockholder and any
person that would give rise to a valid claim against such Selling Stockholder or any
Underwriter for a brokerage commission, finder’s fee or other like payment in connection
with this offering.
(k) Absence of Manipulation. Such Selling Stockholder has not taken, directly or
indirectly, any action that is designed to or that has constituted or that would
reasonably be expected to cause or result in the stabilization or manipulation of the
price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Offered
Securities in violation of applicable laws.
3. Purchase, Sale and Delivery of Offered Securities. On the basis of the representations,
warranties and agreements and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company and
each Selling Stockholder agrees, severally and not jointly, to sell to each Underwriter, and each
Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company and each Selling
Stockholder, at a purchase price of $[_____] per share, that number of Firm Securities (rounded up
or down, as determined by the Representatives in their discretion, in order to avoid fractions)
obtained by multiplying [_________] Firm Securities, in the case of the Company, and the number of
Firm Securities set forth opposite the name of such Selling Stockholder in Schedule B hereto, in
the case of a Selling Stockholder, in each case by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number
of Firm Securities set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule A hereto and the
denominator of which is the total number of Firm Securities.
Except as set forth in the Custody Agreements, certificates in negotiable form for the Offered
Securities to be sold by the Selling Stockholders hereunder other than any such Offered Securities
to be issued upon exercise of Selling Stockholder Options, or irrevocable exercise notices in the
event of Selling Stockholders who are selling Offered Securities issued upon the exercise of the
Selling Stockholder Options, have been placed in custody, for delivery under this Agreement, under
Custody Agreements made with the Custodian. Each Selling Stockholder agrees that the shares
represented by the certificates or irrevocable exercise notices held in custody for the Selling
Stockholders under such Custody Agreements are subject to the interests of the Underwriters
hereunder, that the arrangements made by the Selling Stockholders for such custody are to that
extent irrevocable, and that the obligations of the Selling Stockholders hereunder shall not be
terminated by operation of law, whether by the death of any individual Selling Stockholder or the
occurrence of any other event, or in the case of a trust, by the death of any trustee or trustees
or the termination of such trust. If any individual Selling Stockholder or any such trustee or
trustees should die, or if any other such event should occur, or if any of such trusts should
terminate, before the delivery of the Offered Securities hereunder, certificates or irrevocable
exercise notices for such Offered Securities shall be delivered by the Custodian in accordance with
the terms and conditions of this Agreement as if such death
13
or other event or termination had not occurred, regardless of whether or not the Custodian
shall have received notice of such death or other event or termination.
The Company and the Custodian will deliver the Firm Securities to or as instructed by the
Representatives for the accounts of the several Underwriters in a form reasonably acceptable to the
Representatives, against payment of the purchase price by the Underwriters in Federal (same day)
funds by official bank check or checks or wire transfer to an account at a bank acceptable to the
Representatives drawn to the order of the Company in the case of [_________] shares of Firm
Securities and the Custodian in the case of [_________] shares of Firm Securities, at the office of
Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, located at 0000 Xxxxxxx Xx., Xxxx Xxxx, XX, 00000 at [_____] A.M.,
New York time, on [_________], 2010, or at such other time not later than seven full business days
thereafter as the Representatives and the Company determine, such time being herein referred to as
the “First Closing Date”. For purposes of Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
the First Closing Date (if later than the otherwise applicable settlement date) shall be the
settlement date for payment of funds and delivery of securities for all the Offered Securities sold
pursuant to the offering. The Firm Securities so to be delivered or evidence of their issuance will
be made available for checking at the office of DTC or its designated custodian at least 24 hours
prior to the First Closing Date.
In addition, upon written notice from the Representatives given to the Company and the Selling
Stockholders listed on Schedule B under the heading “Option Selling Stockholders” (such Selling
Stockholders, “Option Selling Stockholders”) from time to time not more than 30 days subsequent to
the date of the Final Prospectus, the Underwriters may purchase all or less than all of the
Optional Securities at the purchase price per Security to be paid for the Firm Securities. The
Option Selling Stockholders agree, severally and not jointly, to sell to the Underwriters the
respective number of shares of Optional Securities obtained by multiplying the number of Optional
Securities specified in such notice by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares
set forth opposite the names of such Option Selling Stockholders in Schedule B hereto under the
caption “Number of Optional Securities to be Sold” and the denominator of which is the total number
of Optional Securities (subject to adjustment by the Representative, in order to avoid fractions).
Such Optional Securities shall be purchased from each Selling Stockholder for the account of each
Underwriter in the same proportion as the number of shares of Firm Securities set forth opposite
such Underwriter’s name bears to the total number of shares of Firm Securities (subject to
adjustment by the Representatives to in order to avoid fractions) and may be purchased by the
Underwriters only for the purpose of covering over-allotments made in connection with the sale of
the shares of Firm Securities. No Optional Securities shall be sold or delivered unless the Firm
Securities previously have been, or simultaneously are, sold and delivered. The right to purchase
the Optional Securities or any portion thereof may be exercised from time to time and to the extent
not previously exercised may be surrendered and terminated at any time upon notice by the
Representatives to the Company and the Option Selling Stockholders.
Each time for the delivery of and payment for the Optional Securities, being herein referred
to as an “Optional Closing Date”, which may be the First Closing Date (the First Closing Date and
each Optional Closing Date, if any, being sometimes referred to as a “Closing Date”), shall be
determined by the Representatives but shall be not later than five full business days after written
notice of election to purchase Optional Securities is given. The Custodian will deliver the
Optional Securities being purchased on each Optional Closing Date to or as instructed by the
Representatives for the accounts of the several Underwriters in a form reasonably acceptable to the
Representatives, against payment of the purchase price therefore in Federal (same day) funds by
official bank check or checks or wire transfer to an account at a bank acceptable to the
Representatives drawn to the order of the Custodian, at the above office of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx &
Xxxxxxxx LLP. The certificates for the Optional Securities being purchased on each Optional Closing
Date or evidence of their issuance will be made available for checking at the office of DTC or its
designated custodian at a reasonable time in advance of such Optional Closing Date.
4. Offering by Underwriters. It is understood that the several Underwriters propose to offer
the Offered Securities for sale to the public as set forth in the Final Prospectus.
5. Certain Agreements of the Company and the Selling Stockholders. The Company agrees with
the several Underwriters and the Selling Stockholders that:
(a) Additional Filings. Unless filed pursuant to Rule 462(c) as part of the
Additional Registration Statement in accordance with the next sentence, the Company will
file the Final
14
Prospectus, in a form approved by the Representatives, with the Commission pursuant
to and in accordance with subparagraph (1) (or, if applicable and if consented to by the
Representatives, subparagraph (4)) of Rule 424(b) not later than the earlier of (A) the
second business day following the execution and delivery of this Agreement or (B) the
fifteenth business day after the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement.
The Company will advise the Representatives promptly of any such filing pursuant to Rule
424(b) and provide satisfactory evidence to the Representatives of such timely filing.
If an Additional Registration Statement is necessary to register a portion of the
Offered Securities under the Act but the Effective Time thereof has not occurred as of
the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company will file the additional
registration statement or, if filed, will file a post-effective amendment thereto with
the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 462(b) on or prior to 10:00 P.M.,
New York time, on the date of this Agreement or, if earlier, on or prior to the time the
Final Prospectus is finalized and distributed to any Underwriter, or will make such
filing at such later date as shall have been consented to by the Representatives.
(b) Filing of Amendments; Response to Commission Requests. The Company will
promptly advise the Representatives of any proposal to amend or supplement at any time
the Initial Registration Statement, any Additional Registration Statement or any
Statutory Prospectus and will not effect such amendment or supplementation without the
Representatives’ consent; and the Company will also advise the Representatives promptly
of (i) the effectiveness of any Additional Registration Statement (if its Effective Time
is subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement), (ii) any amendment or
supplementation of a Registration Statement or any Statutory Prospectus, (iii) any
request by the Commission or its staff for any amendment to any Registration Statement,
for any supplement to any Statutory Prospectus or for any additional information, (iv)
the institution by the Commission of any stop order proceedings in respect of a
Registration Statement or the threatening of any proceeding for that purpose and (v) the
receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the
qualification of the Offered Securities in any jurisdiction or the institution or
threatening of any proceedings for such purpose. The Company will use its reasonable
best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or the suspension of any
such qualification and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal thereof.
(c) Continued Compliance with Securities Laws. If, at any time when a prospectus
relating to the Offered Securities is (or but for the exemption in Rule 172 would be)
required to be delivered under the Act by any Underwriter or dealer, any event occurs as
a result of which the Final Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make
the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading, or if it is necessary at any time to amend the Registration Statement or
supplement the Final Prospectus to comply with the Act, the Company will promptly notify
the Representatives of such event and will promptly prepare and file with the Commission
and furnish, at its own expense, to the Underwriters and the dealers and any other
dealers upon request of the Representatives, an amendment or supplement which will
correct such statement or omission or an amendment which will effect such compliance.
Neither the Representatives’ consent to, nor the Underwriters’ delivery of, any such
amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions set forth in
Section 7 hereof.
(d) Rule 158. As soon as practicable, but not later than the Availability Date (as
defined below), the Company will make generally available to its securityholders an
earnings statement covering a period of at least 12 months beginning after the Effective
Time of the Initial Registration Statement (or, if later, the Effective Time of the
Additional Registration Statement) which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of
the Act and Rule 158 under the Act. For the purpose of the preceding sentence,
“Availability Date” means the day after the end of the fourth fiscal quarter following
the fiscal quarter that includes such Effective Time on which the Company is required to
file its Form 10-Q for such fiscal quarter except that, if such fourth fiscal quarter is
the last quarter of the Company’s fiscal year, “Availability Date” means the day after
the end of such fourth fiscal quarter on which the Company is required to file its Form
10-K.
15
(e) Furnishing of Prospectuses. The Company will furnish to the Representatives
copies of each Registration Statement (of which will be signed and will include all
exhibits), each related Statutory Prospectus, and, so long as a prospectus relating to
the Offered Securities is (or but for the exemption in Rule 172 would be) required to be
delivered under the Act, the Final Prospectus and all amendments and supplements to such
documents, in each case in such quantities as the Representatives may reasonably
request. The Final Prospectus shall be so furnished on or prior to 3:00 P.M., New York
time, on the business day following the execution and delivery of this Agreement. All
other such documents shall be so furnished as soon as available. The Company will pay
the expenses of printing and distributing to the Underwriters all such documents.
(f) Blue Sky Qualifications. The Company will arrange for the qualification of the
Offered Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives
designate and will continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for the
distribution; except that in no event shall the Company be obligated in connection
therewith to qualify as a foreign corporation or to execute a general consent to service
of process in any such jurisdiction.
(g) Reporting Requirements. During the period of three years hereafter, the
Company will furnish to the Representatives and, upon request, to each of the other
Underwriters, as soon as practicable after the end of each fiscal year, a copy of its
annual report to stockholders for such year; and the Company will furnish to the
Representatives (i) as soon as available, a copy of each report and any definitive proxy
statement of the Company filed with the Commission under the Exchange Act or mailed to
stockholders, and (ii) from time to time, such other information concerning the Company
as the Representatives may reasonably request. However, so long as the Company is
subject to the reporting requirements of either Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act and is timely filing reports with the Commission on its Electronic Data
Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (“XXXXX”), it is not required to furnish such
reports or statements to the Underwriters.
(h) Payment of Expenses. The Company and each Selling Stockholder agree with the
several Underwriters that the Company will pay all expenses incident to the performance
of the obligations of the Company and the Selling Stockholders, as the case may be,
under this Agreement, including but not limited to (i) any filing fees and other
expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel to the Underwriters) incurred in
connection with qualification of the Offered Securities for sale under the laws of such
jurisdictions as the Representatives designate and the preparation and printing of
memoranda relating thereto, (ii) costs and expenses related to the review by the
Financial Industry Regulation Authority (“FINRA”) of the Offered Securities (including
filing fees and the fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters relating to such
review), (iii) fees, disbursements and expenses of Company’s counsel and one counsel to
the Selling Stockholders, (iv) costs and expenses incurred by the Company relating to
investor presentations or any “road show” in connection with the offering and sale of
the Offered Securities including, without limitation, any travel expenses of the
Company’s officers and employees and any other expenses of the Company incurred in
connection therewith (provided, however, that the Company and the Underwriters each
shall be responsible for 50% of the costs of any aircraft chartered in order to
transport representatives of the Company and the Underwriters to meetings with
prospective purchasers of the Offered Securities), (v) fees and expenses incident to
listing the Offered Securities on the NASDAQ Stock Market and other national and foreign
exchanges, (vi) fees and expenses in connection with the registration of the Offered
Securities under the Exchange Act and (vii) expenses incurred in distributing
preliminary prospectuses and the Final Prospectus (including any amendments and
supplements thereto) to the Underwriters and for expenses incurred for preparing,
printing and distributing any Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses to investors or
prospective investors. It is understood, however, that, except as provided in this
Section 5(h), the Underwriters will pay all of their own costs and expenses, including
all travel, lodging and other expenses of the Underwriters or any of their employees
incurred by them in connection with any road show. It is further understood that,
except as provided in this Section 5(h), the Selling Stockholders will pay all of their
own costs and expenses, including any transfer or other taxes payable on the sale of
their Securities, except as provided in any separate agreement relating to the
allocation of payment of expenses between the Company, on the one hand, and a Selling
Stockholder, on the other hand.

from the sale of the Offered Securities hereunder to repay any outstanding debt owed to
any affiliate of any Underwriter.
(j) Absence of Manipulation. The Company and the Selling Stockholders will not
take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would constitute or that

a registration statement on Form S-8 to register shares issuable upon exercise of options
granted pursuant to the terms of a plan in effect on the date hereof, it being understood
that the Company shall be limited to filing only one Form S-8 during the Lock-Up Period and
any Securities registered pursuant to such Form S-8 shall remain subject to the lock-up
agreements previously executed and delivered pursuant to this agreement pursuant to the
terms therein) without the prior written consent of the Representatives, except, in each
case, (A) the Securities to be sold hereunder; (B) grants of employee stock options pursuant
to the terms of a plan in effect on the date hereof and disclosed in the General Disclosure
Package and the Final Prospectus, and authorized for issuance as of the date hereof; (C)

ventures, commercial relationships or other strategic transactions; provided that, in the
case of clauses (D) and (E), (i) the aggregate number of shares issued in such acquisitions
and transactions does not exceed 5% of the Securities outstanding immediately following
consummation of this offering and (ii) any recipients of such shares execute and deliver to
the Representatives a Lock-Up Agreement (as defined below). The initial Lock-Up Period will
commence on the date hereof and continue for 90 days after the date hereof or such earlier
date that the Representatives consent to in writing; provided, however, that if (1) during
the last 17 days of the initial Lock-Up Period, the Company releases earnings results or
material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs or (2) prior to the
expiration of the initial Lock-Up Period, the Company announces that it will release
earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the initial Lock-Up
Period, then in each case the Lock-Up Period will be extended until the expiration of the
18-day period beginning on the date of release of the earnings results or the occurrence of
the material news or material event, as applicable, unless the Representatives waive, in
writing, such extension. The Company will provide the Representatives with notice of any
announcement described in clause (2) of the preceding sentence that gives rise to an

decreasing a call equivalent position in Lock-Up Securities within the meaning of Section 16
of the Exchange Act. The Company further agrees to take all actions reasonably necessary to
(a) enforce such Embedded Lock-Ups during the Prior Lock-Up Period, provided that unless it
would require a Person to make any filings under Section 16 or Sections 13(d) or (g) of the
Exchange Act, the Company may permit exceptions to such Embedded Lock-Ups solely for the
purposes of allowing acquisitions of Lock-Up Securities in the open market and subsequent
transfers of such Lock-Up Securities acquired in the open market, and (b) notify the
Representatives if the Company becomes aware that any person or entity has breached or
intends to breach any such Embedded Lock-Up. “Prior Lock-Up Period” shall mean the “Lock-Up

permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain
accountability for assets, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with

Company nor any of its subsidiaries will be required to register as an “investment
company” or an entity “controlled” by an investment company within the meaning of the
Investment Company Act.
6. Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses. The Company and Selling Stockholders represent and agree
that, unless they obtain the prior consent of the Representatives, and each Underwriter represents
and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Company and the Representatives, it has
not made and will not make any offer relating to the Offered Securities that would constitute an
Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus,” as
defined in Rule 405, required to be filed with the Commission. Any such free writing prospectus
consented to by the Company and the Representatives is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free
Writing Prospectus.” The Company represents that it has treated and agrees that it will treat each
Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433,
and has complied and will comply with the requirements of Rules 164 and 433 applicable to any
Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including timely Commission filing where required, legending and
record keeping. The Company represents that it has satisfied and agrees that it will satisfy the
conditions in Rule 433 to avoid a requirement to file with the Commission any electronic road show.
7. Conditions of the Obligations of the Underwriters. The obligations of the several
Underwriters to purchase and pay for the Firm Securities on the First Closing Date and the Optional

implications of a possible upgrading, and no implication of a possible downgrading, of
such rating); (iii) any change in U.S. or international financial, political or economic

terrorism involving the United States, any declaration of war by Congress or any other
national or international calamity or emergency if, in the judgment of the

The Selling Stockholders and the Company will furnish the Representatives with such conformed
copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and documents as the Representatives reasonably

8. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) Indemnification of Underwriters by Company. The Company will indemnify and
hold harmless each Underwriter, its partners, members, directors, officers, employees,
agents, affiliates and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, an
“Indemnified Party”), against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint
or several, to which such Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Act, the
Exchange Act, other Federal or state statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar
as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out
of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material
fact contained in any part of any Registration Statement at any time, any Statutory
Prospectus as of any time, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus,
or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission of a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, and will reimburse each Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or
defending against any loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation
or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such
20
Indemnified Party is a party thereto), whether threatened or commenced, and in
connection with the enforcement of this provision with respect to any of the above as
such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in
any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of
or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or
alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the
Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the
only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the information described
as such in subsection (c) below.
(b) Indemnification of Underwriters by Selling Stockholders. The Selling
Stockholders, severally, and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless each
Indemnified Party, against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or
several, to which such Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange
Act, other Federal or state statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or
are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact
contained in any part of any Registration Statement at any time, any Statutory
Prospectus as of any time, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus,
or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission of a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, and will reimburse each Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or
defending against any loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation
or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto),
whether threatened or commenced, and in connection with the enforcement of this
provision with respect to the above as such expenses are incurred; provided, however,
that a Selling Stockholder shall be subject to liability only to the extent that the
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any
of such documents is made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
provided by such Selling Stockholder specifically for use therein, it being understood
and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Selling Stockholder consists
of the following information in the Final Prospectus furnished on behalf of each Selling
Stockholder: the information relating to such Selling Stockholder under the caption
“Principal and Selling Stockholders” in any Statutory Prospectus or the Final
Prospectus; provided further that the liability of each Selling Stockholder shall be
limited to an amount equal to the aggregate gross proceeds after underwriting discounts
and commissions, but before expenses, to such Selling Stockholder from the sale of the
Offered Securities sold by such indemnifying Selling Stockholder.
(c) Indemnification of Company and Selling Stockholders. Each Underwriter will
severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors
and each of its officers who signs a Registration Statement and each person, if any, who
controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act, and each Selling Stockholder (each, an “Underwriter Indemnified Party”)
against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Underwriter Indemnified
Party may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act, or other Federal or state
statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration
Statement at any time, any Statutory Prospectus at any time, the Final Prospectus or any
Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the
alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein 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 reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to the Company by such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use
therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
Underwriter Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending against any
such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding
whatsoever (whether or not such Underwriter Indemnified Party is a party thereto),
whether threatened or commenced, based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or
any such alleged untrue statement or omission as such expenses are incurred, it being
understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter
consists of (i) the following
21
information in the Final Prospectus furnished on behalf of each Underwriter: the
concession and reallowance figures appearing in the fourth paragraph under the caption
“Underwriting” and the discussions of stabilizing, over-allotment and syndicate covering
transactions and penalty bids under the caption “Underwriting”.
(d) Actions against Parties; Notification. Promptly after receipt by an
indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such
indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an
indemnifying party under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above, notify the indemnifying party
of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not
relieve it from any liability that it may have under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above
except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of
substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure
to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may
have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a), (b), or (c) above. In
case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies an
indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled
to participate therein and, to the extent that it may 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 will not be liable to such indemnified party under this
Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party
in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.
The indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action
and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall
be at the expense of the indemnified party unless (i) the employment of such counsel
shall have been specifically authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (ii) the
indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense and employ counsel or (iii)
the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both the
indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have been
advised by such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it
which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party (in
which case the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such
action on behalf of the indemnified party or such controlling person). No indemnifying
party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any
settlement of any pending or threatened action 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 (i) includes an unconditional release of such
indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such
action 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 an indemnified party.
(e) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section is
unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a),
(b) or (c) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities referred to in subsection (a), (b) or (c) above (i) in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling
Stockholders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the
Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by
applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative
benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and
the Selling Stockholders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection
with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative
benefits received by the Company and the Selling Stockholders on the one hand and the
Underwriters 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 and the
Selling Stockholders bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received
by the Underwriters. 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
22
by the Company, the Selling Stockholders or the Underwriters and the parties’
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result
of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this
subsection (e) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any
action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (e). Notwithstanding the
provisions of this subsection (e), no Underwriter 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 the public were offered to the public exceeds the
amount of any damages which 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 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations in this subsection (e) to
contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and
not joint. The Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (e) 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 which does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to in this subsection (e). Notwithstanding the
provisions of this subsection (e), no Selling Stockholder shall be required to
contribute (i) unless such Selling Stockholder would have had indemnification
obligations pursuant to Section 8(b) and (ii) any amount in excess of the amount by
which (I) the aggregate gross proceeds after underwriting discounts and commissions, but
before expenses, received by such Selling Stockholder from the sale of the Offered
Securities sold by such Selling Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement exceeds (II) the
amount of any damages which such Selling Stockholder has otherwise been required to pay
by reason of such untrue alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.
9. Default of Underwriters. If any Underwriter or Underwriters default in their obligations
to purchase Offered Securities hereunder on either the First or any Optional Closing Date and the
aggregate number of shares of Offered Securities that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters
agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total number of shares of Offered
Securities that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date, Credit Suisse
Securities (USA) LLC may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company and the Selling Stockholders
for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons, including any of the Underwriters,
but if no such arrangements are made by such Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be
obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the
Offered Securities that such defaulting Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase on such Closing
Date. If any Underwriter or Underwriters so default and the aggregate number of shares of Offered
Securities with respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds 10% of the total number of
shares of Offered Securities that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date
and arrangements satisfactory to Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, the Company and the Selling
Stockholders for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons are not made within 36
hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any
non-defaulting Underwriter, the Company or the Selling Stockholders, except as provided in Section
10 (provided that if such default occurs with respect to Optional Securities after the First
Closing Date, this Agreement will not terminate as to the Firm Securities or any Optional
Securities purchased prior to such termination). As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter”
includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section. Nothing herein will relieve
a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.
10. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities,
agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Selling Stockholders, of the
Company or its officers and of the several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this
Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or statement as to
the results thereof, made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, any Selling Stockholder, the Company
or any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and
will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Securities. If the purchase of the Offered
Securities by the Underwriters is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of the
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9 hereof, the Company will reimburse the
Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel)
reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the Offered Securities, and the
respective obligations of the Company, the Selling Stockholders and the
23
Underwriters pursuant to Section 8 hereof shall remain in effect. If the purchase of the
Offered Securities by the Underwriters is not consummated solely because of any failure, refusal or
inability of any of the Selling Stockholders to perform any agreement herein or to comply with any
provision hereof, such Selling Stockholder will reimburse the Company for the out-of-pocket
expenses of the Underwriters (including fees and disbursements of counsel) that the Company
reimburses the Underwriters pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. In addition, if any
Offered Securities have been purchased hereunder, the representations and warranties in Section 2
and all obligations under Section 5 shall also remain in effect.
11. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the
Underwriters, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to the Representatives c/o
