It is understood that, subject to the conditions hereinafter stated, an aggregate of 320,000 Shares (the “Firm Shares”) will be sold to the Underwriter in connection with the public offering (the “Offering”) and sale of such Firm Shares. In addition, as set forth below, the Company proposes to issue and sell to the Underwriter, upon the terms and conditions set forth in Section 3 hereof, an aggregate of up to 48,000 additional Shares (the “Optional Shares”). The Firm Shares and the Optional Shares are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.”

This is to confirm the agreement concerning the purchase of the Securities from the Company by the Underwriter.

1. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Underwriter that:

(a) The Company has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) in conformity in all material respects with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Rules and Regulations”) a Registration Statement (as defined below) on Form S-1 (File No. 333-208177), which became effective on June 2, 2016 (the “Effective Date”), including a preliminary prospectus dated May 20, 2016 and filed with the Commission on May 20, 2016 pursuant to Rule 424 of the Rules and Regulations, to be used in connection with the sale of the Securities (the “Preliminary Prospectus”). The term “Registration Statement” as used in this Agreement means the Registration Statement (including all exhibits, financial schedules and all documents and information deemed to be a part of the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430A of the Rules and Regulations), as amended and/or supplemented to the date of this Agreement, including the Prospectus. The Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission under the Securities Act, and no stop order preventing or

suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or suspending or preventing the use of the Prospectus has been issued by the Commission, and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company, are contemplated or threatened by the Commission. The final prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 of the Rules and Regulations not later than the Commission’s close of business on the second Business Day following the execution and delivery of this Agreement is hereafter called the “Prospectus.” If the Company has filed or does file an abbreviated registration statement to register additional securities pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Rules and Regulations (the “Rule 462(b) Registration Statement”), then any reference herein to the Registration Statement from and after the date and time of filing of the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement shall also be deemed to include such Rule 462(b) Registration Statement. Any reference herein to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-1 which were filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), on or before the last to occur of the Effective Date or the date of the Prospectus, and any reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment,” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include (i) the filing of any document under the Exchange Act after the Effective Date or the date of the Prospectus, as the case may be, which is incorporated by reference and (ii) any such document so filed.

The final Preliminary Prospectus included in the Disclosure Package (as defined below) and the Prospectus when filed with the Commission complied with or will comply, in all material respects with the Securities Act and the Rules and Regulations and, if filed by electronic transmission pursuant to XXXXX (except as may be permitted by Regulation S-T under the Securities Act), was identical to the copy thereof delivered to the Underwriter for use in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities. Each of the Registration Statement, any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, at the time it became effective, and at each Closing Date (as defined below), complied and will comply in all material respects with the Securities Act and did not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Prospectus (including any Prospectus wrapper), as amended or supplemented, as of its date and at the date hereof, the Closing Date and any Option Closing Date (as defined below), did not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The representations and warranties set forth in the two immediately preceding sentences do not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement, any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement, or any post-effective amendment thereto, or the Prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto, made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of the Underwriter expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of the Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 11 hereof. The documents incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, when they became effective or were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, conformed in all material respects to the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, and none of such documents contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

(b) There are no contracts or other documents required to be described in the Registration Statement, Disclosure Package (as defined herein) or Prospectus or to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement which have not been described or filed as required. Each agreement to which the Company is a party (i) that is referred to in the Registration Statement, Disclosure Package or Prospectus or filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, and (ii) is material to the Company’s business (each, a “Material Contract”), has been duly and validly executed by the Company, is in full force and effect in all material respects and (assuming that such Material Contract constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the other persons party thereto) is enforceable against the Company, except (A) as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally, (B) as enforceability of indemnification or contribution provisions may be limited under the federal and state securities laws, and (C) that the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding may be brought. The Company has not assigned any of its rights under any Material Contract. The Company is not in breach or default under any Material Contract and, to the Company’s knowledge, no event has occurred that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a breach or default by the Company or any other party under any Material Contract, in any case, which breach or default or event, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, management, financial position, stockholders’ equity, results of operations or prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole or on the performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement (a “Material Adverse Effect”). The Company is not aware of any other party to a Material Contract being in breach or default thereunder. The Company has no knowledge that any Material Contract is unenforceable against any other party thereto (except for the limitations on enforceability set forth in clauses (A), (B) and (C) of this paragraph).

As of 4:45 p.m. (Eastern time) on the date of this Agreement (the “Initial Sale Time”), the Disclosure Package did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from the Disclosure Package based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Underwriter specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 11 hereof.

(d) Each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, as of its issue date and at all subsequent times through the completion of the Offering or until any earlier date that the Company notified or notifies the Underwriter 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 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 Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicted or would conflict with the information then contained in the Registration Statement or as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if republished immediately following such event or development, would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (i) the Company has promptly notified or will promptly notify the Underwriter and (ii) the Company has promptly amended or will promptly amend or supplement such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict, untrue statement or omission. This subsection (d) does not apply to statements in or omissions from any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf the Underwriter specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 11 hereof.

(e) The Company has delivered to the Underwriter one complete manually signed copy of the Registration Statement and of each consent and certificate of experts filed as a part thereof, and conformed copies of the Registration Statement (without exhibits) and preliminary prospectuses and the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, in such quantities and at such places as the Underwriter has reasonably requested.

(f) The Company has not distributed and will not distribute, directly or indirectly, prior to the later of the Option Closing Date and the completion of the Underwriter’s distribution of the Securities, any offering material in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities other than any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus reviewed and consented to by the Underwriter or included in Schedule I hereto, or the Registration Statement.

(g) Shares of the common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), are (and upon the Closing Date, the Securities will be) registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act and listed for quotation and admitted for trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market (“NASDAQ”). The Company has not received any notice from NASDAQ regarding the delisting of such shares from NASDAQ (except for such notices as have been fully resolved), nor has the Company received any written notification that NASDAQ is contemplating terminating such listing. To the Company’s knowledge, there are no affiliations or associations between (i) any member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) and (ii) the Company or any of the Company’s officers, directors or 5% or greater security holders or any beneficial owner of the Company’s unregistered equity securities that were acquired at any time on or after the 180th day immediately preceding the date the Registration Statement was initially filed with the Commission, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement (excluding the exhibits thereto), the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(a) It has not and will not use, authorize use of, refer to, or participate in the planning for use of, any “free writing prospectus”, as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act (which term includes use of any written information furnished to the Commission by the Company and not incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement and any press release issued by the Company) other than (i) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or (ii) any other free writing prospectus that the parties hereto shall hereafter expressly agree in writing to treat as part of the Disclosure Package.

(b) It will retain copies of each free writing prospectus used or referred to by it to the extent required by Rule 433 under the Securities Act.

3. Purchase of the Securities by the Underwriter.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions and upon the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein set forth, the Company agrees to issue and sell to the Underwriter, and the Underwriter agrees to purchase at a price of $23.625 per Share (which gives effect to a 5.5% discount), 320,000 Firm Shares. The Underwriter agrees to offer the Firm Shares to the public as set forth in the Prospectus.

(b) The Company hereby grants to the Underwriter and its designees an option to purchase from the Company, solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments in connection with the distribution and sale of the Firm Shares, all or any portion of the Optional Shares for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of the Prospectus at the purchase price per Share set forth above.

No Optional Shares shall be sold and delivered unless the Firm Shares previously have been, or simultaneously are, sold and delivered.

4. Delivery of and Payment for Securities. Delivery of the Firm Shares to be purchased by the Underwriter from the Company against payment for such Securities shall be made at the offices of the Underwriter (or such other place as mutually may be agreed upon by the Company and the Underwriter), on the third full Business Day following the date hereof or, if the pricing of the Firm Shares occurs after 4:30 p.m., New York City time, on the fourth full Business Day thereafter, or at such other date as shall be determined by the Underwriter and the Company (the “First Closing Date”).

The option to purchase Optional Shares granted in Section 3 hereof may be exercised during the term thereof by written notice to the Company from the Underwriter. The option may be exercised in whole or part, and if in part, the option can be exercised on multiple occasions. Such notice shall set forth the aggregate number of Optional Shares as to which the option is being exercised and the time and date, not earlier than either the First Closing Date or the second Business Day after the date on which the option shall have been exercised nor later than the fifth Business Day after the date of such exercise, as determined by the Underwriter, when the Optional Shares are to be delivered (the “Option Closing Date”). Delivery and payment for such Optional Shares is to be at the offices set forth above for delivery and payment of the Firm Shares. (The First Closing Date and each Option Closing Date are herein individually referred to as the “Closing Date” and collectively referred to as the “Closing Dates”.)

On the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver the Firm Shares or the Optional Shares, as applicable, which shall be registered in the name or names and shall be in such denominations as the Underwriter may request at least one (1) business day before the applicable Closing Date, to the Underwriter, which delivery shall be made through the facilities of the Depository Trust Company’s DWAC system.

5. Covenants. The Company covenants and agrees with the Underwriter that: During such period beginning on the Initial Sale Time and ending on the later of the Closing Date or such date, as in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriter, the Prospectus is no longer required by law to be delivered in connection with sales as contemplated by this Agreement by the Underwriter or any dealer, including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 (the “Prospectus Delivery Period”), prior to amending or supplementing the Registration Statement (including any registration statement filed under Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act), the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, the Company shall furnish to the Underwriter for review a copy of each such proposed amendment or supplement, and the Company shall not file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which the Underwriter reasonably objects.

(b) After the date of this Agreement, the Company shall promptly advise the Underwriter in writing (i) when the Registration Statement, if not effective at the Execution Time, shall have become effective, (ii) of the receipt of any comments of, or requests for additional or supplemental information from, the Commission, (iii) of the time and date of any filing of any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, (iv) of the time and date that any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement becomes effective and (v) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or of any order or notice preventing or suspending the use of the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, or of any proceedings to remove, suspend or terminate from listing or quotation the Common Stock or Preferred Stock from any securities exchange upon which it is listed for trading or included or designated (or approved for inclusion or designation) for quotation, or of the threatening or initiation of any proceedings for any of such purposes. The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or prevention or suspension of such use. If the Commission shall enter any such stop order or order or notice of prevention or suspension at any time, the Company will use its best efforts to obtain the lifting of such order at the earliest possible moment, or will file a new registration statement and use its best efforts to have such new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable. In addition, the Company agrees that it shall comply with the provisions of Rules 424(b) and 434, as applicable, under the Securities Act, including with respect to the timely filing of documents thereunder, and will use its reasonable efforts to confirm that any filings made by the Company under such Rule 424(b) were received in a timely manner by the Commission.

(c) (i) If the Preliminary Prospectus included in the Disclosure Package is being used to solicit offers to buy the Securities and any event or development shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Disclosure Package in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made or then prevailing, as the case may be, not misleading (in which case the Company agrees to notify the Underwriter promptly of any such event or condition), or if in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriter it is otherwise necessary to amend or supplement the Disclosure Package to comply with law, the Company agrees to promptly prepare, file with the Commission and furnish to the Underwriter and to dealers, at its own expense, amendments or supplements to the Disclosure Package so that the statements in the Disclosure Package as so amended or supplemented will not be, in the light of the circumstances under which they were

made or then prevailing, as the case may be, misleading or so that the Disclosure Package, as amended or supplemented, will comply with law; (ii) if, during the Prospectus Delivery Period, any event or development shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made or then prevailing, as the case may be, not misleading (in which case the Company agrees to notify the Underwriter promptly of any such event or condition), or if in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriter it is otherwise necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus to comply with law, including in connection with the delivery of the Prospectus, the Company agrees to promptly prepare, file with the Commission (and use its best efforts to have any amendment to the Registration Statement or any new registration statement to be declared effective) and furnish to the Underwriter and to dealers, amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or any new registration statement so that the statements in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not be, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made or then prevailing, as the case may be, misleading or so that the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will comply with law.

(d) The Company agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Underwriter, it will not make any offer relating to the Preferred Stock that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) required to be filed by the Company with the Commission or retained by the Company under Rule 433 of the Securities Act; provided that the prior written consent of the Underwriter hereto shall be deemed to have been given in respect of any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus included in Schedule I hereto. Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Underwriter is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus”. The Company agrees that (i) it has treated and will treat, as the case may be, each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, and (ii) has complied and will comply, as the case may be, with the requirements of Rules 164 and 433 of the Securities Act applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including in respect of timely filing with the Commission, legending and record keeping.

(e) The Company shall furnish to the Underwriter, from time to time and without charge, copies of the Registration Statement of which three shall be signed and shall include exhibits and all amendments and supplements to any of such Registration Statement, in each case as soon as available and in such quantities as the Underwriter may from time to time reasonably request.

(f) The Company shall take or cause to be taken all necessary action and furnish to whomever the Underwriter may direct such information as may be required in qualifying the Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions which the Underwriter shall designate and to continue such qualifications in effect for as long as may be necessary for the distribution of the Securities; 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 for service of process.

(g) The Company shall make generally available to its securityholders, in the manner contemplated by Rule 158(b) under the Securities Act, as soon as practicable but in any event not later than 60 days after the end of its fiscal quarter in which the first anniversary date of the effective date of the Registration Statement occurs, an earnings statement which will comply with Section 11(a) of the Securities Act covering a period of at least 12 consecutive months beginning after the effective date of the Registration Statement.

(h) Other than the Securities issued to the Underwriter and except for equity awards issued to directors, officers, employees and consultants in the ordinary course under plans approved by the Company’s board of directors and disclosed in the Prospectus (including the filing of any related registration statement on Form S-8), the Company will not, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter (which consent may be withheld in the Underwriter’s sole discretion), directly or indirectly, issue, sell, offer, agree to sell, contract or grant any option to sell (including, without limitation, pursuant to any short sale), pledge, make any short sale of, maintain any short position with respect to, transfer, establish or maintain an open “put equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act, enter into any swap, derivative transaction or other arrangement (whether such transaction is to be settled by delivery of common stock, other securities, cash or other consideration) that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership, or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, options or warrants to acquire shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, or publicly announce an intention to do any of the foregoing, for a period commencing on the date hereof and continuing through the close of trading on the date 90 days after the date of the Prospectus (the “Lock-Up Period”).

(i) The Company shall cause each officer and director of the Company set forth on Schedule III hereto to furnish to the Underwriter, on or prior to the date of this Agreement, a letter or letters, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the “Lock-up Agreements”), pursuant to which each such person shall agree, subject to customary exceptions, not to offer for sale, contract to sell, sell, distribute, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock or any securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock during the 90 days following the date of the Prospectus, except with the Underwriter’s prior written consent.

(j) The Company shall maintain, at its expense, a registrar and transfer agent for the Common Stock and the Preferred Stock.

(k) The Company shall apply the net proceeds of the sale of the Securities in the manner specified in the Prospectus under the heading “Use of Proceeds.”

(l) The Company will furnish (or make available through the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System) to its securityholders annual reports containing financial statements audited by independent public accountants and quarterly reports containing financial statements and financial information which may be unaudited. During the period of two years from the date hereof, the Company will deliver (or make available through

the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System) to the Underwriter copies of each annual report of the Company and each other report furnished by the Company to its securityholders and will deliver to the Underwriter, as soon as they are available, copies of any other reports (financial or otherwise) which the Company shall publish or otherwise make available to any of its securityholders as such, and as soon as they are available, copies of any reports and financial statements furnished to or filed with the Commission or FINRA.

(m) The Company will use its best efforts to cause the Preferred Stock to be listed on NASDAQ and to maintain the listing of (A) the Preferred Stock, including the Securities, and (B) the Common Stock on the NASDAQ and any other securities exchange on which they are listed.

(n) Whether or not this Agreement is terminated or the sale of the Securities to the Underwriter is consummated, the Company shall pay or cause to be paid (A) all expenses (including stock transfer taxes) incurred in connection with the delivery to the Underwriter of the Securities, (B) all fees and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of the Company’s accountants and counsel) in connection with the preparation, printing, filing, delivery and shipping of the Registration Statement (including the financial statements therein and all amendments and exhibits thereto), each preliminary prospectus, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, and the printing, delivery and shipping of this Agreement and other underwriting documents, including, if applicable, Underwriter’s Questionnaires, Underwriter’s Powers of Attorney, Blue Sky Memoranda, the Agreement Among Underwriters and Selected Dealer Agreements, (C) if necessary, all filing fees and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Underwriter incurred in connection with the qualification of the Securities for sale under state securities laws as provided in Section 5(f) hereof, (D) the filing fee of FINRA and any applicable fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriter in connection with a review of the Offering by FINRA up to a maximum amount with respect to this clause (D) of $15,000, (E) all costs and expenses incident to listing the Securities on NASDAQ, (F) the cost of printing certificates representing the Securities, (G) the cost and charges of any transfer agent or registrar, and (H) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance of its obligations hereunder which are not otherwise provided for in this Section 5(n). If the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated by reason of acts of the Company which prevent this Agreement from becoming effective, or by reason of any failure, refusal or inability on the part of the Company to perform any agreement on its part to be performed or because any other condition of the Underwriter’s obligations hereunder is not fulfilled, unless the failure to perform the agreement or fulfill the condition is due to the default or omission of the Underwriter, the Company shall reimburse the Underwriter for all reasonable out-of-pocket disbursements (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Underwriter in connection with its investigation, preparing to market and marketing the Securities or in contemplation of performing its obligations hereunder. The Company shall not in any event be liable to the Underwriter for loss of anticipated profits from the transactions covered by this Agreement.

claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission of a material fact contained in and in conformity with information furnished in writing by the Underwriter to the Company expressly for use in such Registration Statement, Disclosure Package, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, Prospectus or Application; and to promptly reimburse the Underwriter, or any such director, officer, employee, agent or controlling person for any legal and other expense reasonably incurred by the Underwriter, or any such director, officer, employee, agent or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action. The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 7(a) shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

(b) The Underwriter agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, the Company’s directors, the Company’s officers that signed the Registration Statement, and any person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any loss, expense, liability, damage or claim (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which the Company or any such person may incur under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, expense, liability, damage or claim arises out of or is based upon (A) any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Underwriter contained herein, (B) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereof), the Disclosure Package, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any Application, (C) any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in any such Registration Statement, or necessary to make the statements made therein not misleading, or (D) any omission or alleged omission from the Disclosure Package, any such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, Prospectus or any Application of a material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but in each case only insofar as such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in such Registration Statement, Disclosure Package, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, Prospectus or Application in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing by the Underwriter to the Company expressly for use therein; and to promptly reimburse the Company, or any such director, officer, employee or controlling person for any legal and other expense reasonably incurred by the Company, or any such director, officer, employee or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action.

If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel

reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided, however, that if the named parties in any such action (including impleaded parties) include the Underwriter or any director, officer, employee, agent or controlling person of the Underwriter as an indemnified party or parties as well as the Company, and such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded, based on advice of outside counsel, that there may be one or more legal defenses reasonably available to it or them which are different from or additional to those available to the Company, or that representation of the indemnified party or parties and the Company by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, the Company shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties and such indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to defend such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under such subsection for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation unless such indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, in which case the indemnifying party shall be liable for all legal fees and expenses of such separate counsel.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 7 in respect of any losses, expenses, liabilities, damages or claims referred to therein, then each applicable indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, expenses, liabilities, damages or claims (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if (but only 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, on the one hand, and of the Underwriter, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, expenses, liabilities, damages or claims, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Underwriter shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the Offering (net of underwriting discounts and commissions but before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriter. The relative fault of the Company and of the Underwriter shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriter, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any claim or action.

(e) The Company and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation or by

any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in subsection (d)(i) and, if applicable (ii), above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, the Underwriter shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the underwriting discounts and commissions applicable to the Securities purchased by the Underwriter. 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.

8. Effective Date and Termination.

(a) This Agreement shall become effective at 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first full Business Day following the earlier of (i) the date hereof, or (ii) the day on which the Underwriter releases the initial offering of the Firm Shares for sale to the public. Until this Agreement is effective, it may be terminated by the Company or by the Underwriter by giving notice as hereinafter provided to the Company, except that the provisions of Sections 5(n) and 7 hereof shall at all times be effective. For the purpose of this Section 8(a), the Securities shall be deemed to have been released for sale to the public upon release by the Underwriter of an electronic communication authorizing commencement of the offering of the Securities for sale by the Underwriter or other securities dealers.

(b) Until the First Closing Date, this Agreement may be terminated by the Underwriter by giving notice as hereinafter provided to the Company if: (i) the Company shall have failed, refused or been unable, at or prior to the First Closing Date, to perform any agreement on its part to be performed hereunder, unless the failure to perform any agreement is due to the default or omission by the Underwriter; (ii) any other condition of the obligations of the Underwriter hereunder is not fulfilled; (iii) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ shall have been suspended or minimum or maximum prices shall have been established on either of such exchanges by the Commission or by such exchange or other regulatory body or governmental authority having jurisdiction; (iv) trading or quotation in any of the Company’s securities shall have been suspended or limited by the Commission or by NASDAQ or other stock exchange or regulatory body or governmental authority having jurisdiction; (v) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared by Federal or state authorities; (vi) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred; (vii) there shall have been any material adverse change in general economic, political or financial conditions or if the effect of international conditions on the financial markets in the United States shall be such as, in the Underwriter’s judgment, makes it inadvisable to proceed with the delivery of the Securities; or (viii) any attack on, outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration of war or act of terrorism involving the United States or any other national or international calamity or emergency if, in the Underwriter’s judgment, the effect of any such attack, outbreak, escalation, declaration, act, calamity or emergency makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the completion of the public offering or the delivery of the Securities. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8 shall be without liability on the part of the Company or the Underwriter, except as otherwise provided in Sections 5(n) or 7 hereof.

Any notice referred to above may be given at the address specified in Section 10 hereof in writing or by telegraph or telephone, and if by telegraph or telephone, shall be immediately confirmed in writing.

9. Survival of Indemnities, Contribution, Warranties and Representations. All representations, warranties, and agreements of the Company and the Underwriter herein or in certificates delivered pursuant hereto, and the agreements of the Underwriter and the Company contained in Section 7 hereof, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriter or any controlling person thereof, or the Company or any of its officers, directors, or controlling persons, and shall survive delivery of, and payment for, the Securities to and by the Underwriter hereunder.

Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that you propose to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) providing for the purchase by you (the “Underwriter”) of an aggregate of 320,000 shares (the “Shares”) of 9.00% Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Preferred Stock”) of Mitcham Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and that the Underwriter proposes to reoffer the Shares to the public (the “Offering”).

In consideration of the execution of the Underwriting Agreement by the Underwriter, and for other good and valuable consideration, the undersigned hereby irrevocably agrees that, without the prior written consent of Ladenburg Xxxxxxxx & Co. Inc., the undersigned will not, directly or indirectly, contract to sell, sell, distribute, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Preferred Stock, common stock of the Company (“common stock”) or any securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of common stock or Preferred Stock, whether any such transaction described above is to be settled by delivery of the shares of common stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise, for a period of 90 days after the date of the final prospectus (the prospectus supplement, together with the prospectus, the “Prospectus”) relating to the Offering; provided however, that the above restrictions shall not apply to equity incentive awards to directors, officers, employees and consultants under our existing plans referred to in the Prospectus.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company and its transfer agent are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Lock-Up Letter Agreement.

It is understood that, if the Company notifies you that it does not intend to proceed with the Offering, if the Underwriting Agreement does not become effective, or if the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Shares, the undersigned will be released from the undersigned’s obligations under this Lock-Up Letter Agreement.

The undersigned understands that the Company and the Underwriter will proceed with the Offering in reliance on this Lock-Up Letter Agreement.

Whether or not the Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions. Any Offering will only be made pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Underwriter.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Lock-Up Letter Agreement and that, upon request, the undersigned will execute any additional documents necessary in connection with the enforcement hereof. Any obligations of the undersigned shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the undersigned.

Structuring Fee:		$0.125 per share; $40,000 total (assuming no exercise of the underwriter’s option to purchase additional shares) payable to Ladenburg Xxxxxxxx & Co. Inc.

Maturity Date:		Perpetual (unless redeemed by the issuer on or after June 8, 2021 or in connection with a change of control).

Ratings:		The Series A Preferred Stock will not be rated.

Trade Date:		June 3, 2016

Settlement Date:		June 8, 2016 (T+3)

Liquidation Preference:		$25.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock.

Dividend Rate:		9.00% per annum for cash payment, based on liquidation preference of $25.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock.

Optional Redemption:		The Company shall have the option to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, on or after June 8, 2021 or upon a change of control at the liquidation preference of $25.00 per share, plus accrued but unpaid dividends.

Exhibit B-1



Change of Control Share Cap:		25 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company, subject to pro rata adjustments for any share splits (including those effected pursuant to a distribution of the Company’s common stock), subdivisions or combinations with respect to the Company’s common stock. Upon such a conversion, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock will be limited to a maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the Share Cap multiplied by the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock converted. If the price of the Company’s common stock is less than $1.00 (which is approximately 25% of the per-share closing sale price of the Company’s common stock reported on the NASDAQ on June 1, 2016), subject to adjustment, the holders will receive a maximum of 25 shares of the Company’s common stock per share of Series A Preferred Stock, which may result in the holders of Series A Preferred Stock receiving common stock with a value that is less than the liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock. The Company’s articles of incorporation currently authorize 20,000,000 shares of common stock. As a result, these conversion rights would be subject to shareholders approval of an amendment to the Company’s articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock.

Exhibit B-2

EXHIBIT C

FORM OF OPINION OF XXXXXX & XXXXXX LLP

The Company is validly existing as a corporation and in good standing under the laws of the State of Texas. The Company has the corporate power and authority that are required to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business in all material respects as described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

2.	The Company has the corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement, including the issuance, sale and delivery of the Securities in accordance with the terms thereof.

3.	The Underwriting Agreement has been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Company.

The Firm Shares have been duly authorized for issuance and sale to the Underwriter and, when issued by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement for the consideration provided for therein, the Firm Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Firm Shares conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof contained in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

Except as described or referred to in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, the issuance of the Securities is not subject to any preemptive rights or, to our knowledge, other rights to subscribe for or to purchase any Securities. To our knowledge, neither the filing of the Registration Statement nor the offering or sale of the Firm Shares as contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement gives rise to any rights for or relating to the registration of any Securities or other securities of the Company.

6.	The Company is not, and after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Firm Shares and the application of the proceeds thereof as described in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus will not be, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

No consent or approval of, or filing with, any U.S. Federal or Texas court or governmental or regulatory authority or self-regulatory organization having jurisdiction over the Company is required to be obtained or made by the Company for the issuance and sale by the Company of the Firm Shares to the Underwriter or the execution, delivery and performance of the Underwriting Agreement by the Company, except (a) such as have been obtained under the Securities Act (as to which we express no opinion), (b) any necessary qualification of the Securities under the securities or blue sky laws of the various jurisdictions in which such Securities are being offered, (c) as may be required under the rules and regulations of FINRA (as to which we express no opinion), (d) such that the failure to obtain would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or materially impair the ability of the Company to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement and (e) those which have been previously made or obtained.

Exhibit C-1

The Registration Statement has been declared effective. To the best of our knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any part thereof has been issued under the Securities Act and no proceedings for such purpose have been instituted or are pending or threatened by the Commission. The Prospectus was filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act in the manner and within the time period required by such Rule 424(b).

None of (A) the execution, delivery and performance of the Underwriting Agreement by the Company or the transactions contemplated in the Underwriting Agreement or (B) the offering, issuance or sale of the Firm Shares pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement for the consideration provided therein (a) constitutes or will constitute a violation of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or Third Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, (b) results or will result in a violation of the laws of the State of Texas or U.S. federal law or (c) constitutes or will constitute a breach or violation of, a change of control or a default under (or an event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such an event), any document or agreement filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement or the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2016, which violations in the case of clauses (b) and (c) would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that we express no opinion pursuant to this paragraph (ix) with respect to state securities or federal or state anti-fraud statutes, rules or regulations.

10.

The statements included in the Registration Statement, Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the captions “Prospectus Summary—The Offering” and “Description of the Series A Preferred Stock,” insofar as they purport to constitute summaries of the terms of the Preferred Stock, are accurate summaries of the terms of such Preferred Stock in all material respects.

11.

The statements of legal conclusions contained in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus under the caption “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,” subject to the limitations, qualifications and assumptions stated therein, insofar as they purport to constitute statements of U.S. federal tax law and regulations or legal conclusions with respect thereto, are accurate in all material respects.

12.

The Registration Statement, Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (except for the financial statements and the notes and the schedules thereto and the other financial information included in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, as to which we do not express an opinion) comply as to form in all material respects with respect to the applicable requirements of the Securities Act.
