The stockholders of the Company named in Schedule II attached hereto (the “Selling Stockholders”) propose, severally and not jointly and subject to the terms and conditions stated herein, to grant to the Underwriters an option to purchase up to an aggregate of 375,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Over-allotment Option” and such shares, the “Option Shares”). The Firm Shares and Option Shares are herein called the “Shares.” The Company desires to engage you as Underwriters (the “Underwriters”) in connection with such issuance and sale of the Firm Shares. The Shares are more fully described in the Registration Statement (as hereinafter defined).

As used in this Agreement, the term “knowledge” with respect to the Company means the knowledge of any of the persons listed on Schedule 4 hereto.

The Company and the Selling Stockholders hereby confirm as follows their agreements with the Underwriters.

The Company shall pay to the

Underwriters a fee equal to 7.5% (the “Underwriting Discount”) of the gross offering proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Firm Shares as set forth on the cover page of the Final Prospectus (as hereinafter defined).

(ii) For the purposes of covering any over-allotments in connection with the distribution and sale of the Firm Shares, and subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Underwriters are hereby granted, by the Selling Stockholders, an option to purchase the Option Shares. The purchase price to be paid for the Option Shares will be the same price per Option Share as the price per Firm Share. The Over-allotment Option may be exercised by the Underwriters as to all (at any time) or any part (from time to time) of the Option Shares within 45 days after the Closing. The Underwriters will not be under any obligation to purchase any Option Shares prior to the exercise of the Over-allotment Option. The Selling Stockholders shall pay to the Underwriters the Underwriting Discount with respect to gross proceeds received by the Selling Stockholders from the Underwriters for the sale of the Option Shares. The Over-allotment Option granted hereby may be exercised by the giving of oral notice to the Company from the Underwriters, which must be confirmed in writing by overnight mail or facsimile or other electronic transmission setting forth the number of Option Shares to be purchased and the date and time for delivery of and payment for the Option Shares (the “Option Closing Date”), which will not be later than five (5) full Business Days after the date of the notice or such other time as shall be agreed upon by the Attorneys-in-Fact and the Underwriters, at the offices of [ ] or at such other place (including remotely by facsimile or other electronic transmission) as shall be agreed upon by the Attorneys-in-Fact and the Underwriters. If such delivery and payment for the Option Shares does not occur on the Closing Date, the Option Closing Date will be as set forth in the notice. Upon exercise of the Over-allotment Option, the Selling Stockholders will become obligated to convey to the Underwriters, and, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Underwriters will become obligated to purchase, the number of Option Shares specified in such notice.

For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(f) of the Act, the representations contained in Sections 3(i)(g) and 3(i)(i) hereof shall not apply to statements contained in an article or other written communication published or distributed by media and reproduced in such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, except to the extent such statements are directly attributable to a director, officer or employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries and to the extent such statements are not otherwise clarified or corrected in such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

(h) Each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conformed or will conform in all material respects to the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations on the date of first use, and the Company has complied with any filing requirements applicable to such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus required by the Rules and Regulations. The Company has not made, and will not make, any offer relating to the Firm Shares that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus without the prior written consent of the Underwriters.

The Company is duly licensed or qualified to do business and in good standing as a foreign organization in all jurisdictions in which the nature of the activities conducted by it or the character of the assets owned or leased by it makes such licensing or qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing or have such power or authority would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect or would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on or affecting the business, prospects, properties, management, consolidated financial position, stockholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as defined below) taken as a whole (a “Material Adverse Effect”).

Each Subsidiary has been duly organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation. Each Subsidiary is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which the character or location of its properties (owned, leased or licensed) or the nature or conduct of its business makes such qualification necessary, except for those failures to be so qualified or in good standing which would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All of the shares of issued capital stock of each corporate subsidiary, and all of the capital stock and equity interests of each subsidiary that is not a corporation, have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable and are owned directly or indirectly by the Company, free and clear of any lien, encumbrance, claim, security interest, restriction on transfer, shareholders’ agreement, voting trust or other defect of title whatsoever.

(m) The Company has full legal right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and perform the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Company and is a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and equitable principles of general applicability.

(n) The issuance and sale of the Firm Shares have been duly authorized by the Company, and the Firm Shares, when issued and paid for in accordance with this Agreement, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and will not be subject to preemptive or similar rights.

The Firm Shares, when issued, will conform to the description thereof set forth in the Final Prospectus in all material respects.

(o) The consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus present fairly, in all material respects, the financial condition of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods covered thereby in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). No other financial statements or schedules of the Company, any Subsidiary or any other entity are required by the Act or the Rules and Regulations to be included in the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus. The pro forma financial statements contained in the Final Prospectus and the Registration Statement are based on reasonable assumptions and provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects directly attributable to the transactions and events described therein, the related pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions, and the pro forma adjustments reflect the proper application of those adjustments to the historical financial statement amounts in the pro forma financial statements included in the Final Prospectus and the Registration Statement.

(vii) At the Closing Date, the Accountants shall have furnished to the Underwriters a letter, dated the date of its delivery (the “Comfort Letter”), addressed to the Underwriters and in form and substance satisfactory to the Underwriters, confirming that (a) they are independent public accountants with respect to the Company within the meaning of the Act and the Rules and Regulations; (b) in their opinion, the financial statements and any supplementary financial information included in the Registration Statement and examined by them comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations; (c) on the basis of procedures, not constituting an examination in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, set forth in detail in the Comfort Letter, a reading of the latest available interim financial statements of the Company, inspections of the minute books of the Company since the latest audited financial statements included in the Final Prospectus, inquiries of officials of the Company responsible for financial and accounting matters and such other inquiries and procedures as may be specified in the Comfort Letter to a date not more than five days prior to the date of the Comfort Letter, nothing came to their attention that caused them to believe that: (1) as of a specified date not more than five days prior to the date of the Comfort Letter, there have been any changes in the capital stock of the Company or any increase in the long-term debt of the Company, or any decreases in net current assets or net assets or other items specified by the Underwriters, or any increases in any items specified by the Underwriters, in each case as compared with amounts shown in the latest balance sheet included in the Final Prospectus, except in each case for changes, increases or decreases which the Final Prospectus discloses have occurred or may occur or which are described in the Comfort Letter; and (2) for the period from the date of the latest financial statements included in the Final Prospectus to the specified date referred to in Clause (1) above, there were any decreases in revenues or the total or per share amounts of net income or other items specified by the Underwriters, or any increases in any items

specified by the Underwriters, in each case as compared with the comparable period of the preceding year and with any other period of corresponding length specified by the Underwriters, except in each case for decreases or increases which the Final Prospectus discloses have occurred or may occur or which are described in the Comfort Letter; (d) in addition to the examination referred to in their reports included in the Final Prospectus and the procedures referred to in clause (c) above, they have carried out certain specified procedures, not constituting an examination in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, with respect to certain amounts, percentages and financial information specified by the Underwriters, which are derived from the general accounting, financial or other records of the Company, as the case may be, which appear in the Final Prospectus or in Part II of, or in exhibits or schedules to, the Registration Statement, and have compared such amounts, percentages and financial information with such accounting, financial and other records and have found them to be in agreement; and (e) on the basis of a reading of the unaudited pro forma financial statements included in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus (the “pro forma financial statements”), carrying out certain specified procedures, inquiries of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters, and proving the arithmetic accuracy of the application of the pro forma adjustments to the historical amounts in the pro forma financial statements, nothing came to their attention which caused them to believe that the pro forma financial statements do not comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of Rule 11-02 of Regulation S-X or that the pro forma adjustments have not been properly applied to the historical amounts in the compilation of such statements.

(viii) At the Closing Date, there shall be furnished to the Underwriters a certificate, dated the date of its delivery, signed by each of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, in form and substance satisfactory to the Underwriters to the effect that each signer has carefully examined the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus and the Pricing Disclosure Materials, and that to each of such person’s knowledge:

(b) Each of the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement were, when originally made, and are, at the time such certificate is delivered, true and correct in all

(e) Subsequent to the date of the most recent financial statements in the Final Prospectus, there has been no Material Adverse Change.

(ix) At the Closing Date, there shall be furnished to the Underwriters a certificate, dated the date of its delivery, signed by each of the Selling Stockholders, in form and substance satisfactory to the Underwriters to the effect that (a) each of the representations and warranties of such Selling Stockholder contained in this Agreement were, when originally made, and are, at the time such certificate is delivered, true and correct in all respects for those representations and warranties qualified by materiality and in all material respects for those representations and warranties that are not qualified by materiality and (b) each of the covenants required herein to be performed by such Selling Stockholder on or prior to the date of such certificate has been duly, timely and fully performed and each condition herein required to be complied with by such Selling Stockholder on or prior to the delivery of such certificate has been duly, timely and fully complied with.

8. Indemnification.

(i) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its directors, officers, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each an “Indemnified Party”), from and against any and all losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages, joint or several, (including any and all investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto)), to which it, or any of them, may become subject under the Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, liabilities, expenses or damages arise out of or are based on (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement made by the Company in Section 3(i) of this Agreement, (b) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in (1) any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (2) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (3) any Permitted Issuer Information used or referred to in any “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405) by any Underwriter or (4) any application or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, executed by the Company based upon written information furnished by or on behalf of the Company filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Shares under the securities or Blue Sky laws thereof or filed with the

Commission or any securities association or securities exchange (each, an “Application”), or (c) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Permitted Issuer Information or any Application a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable to the extent that such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage arises from the sale of the Shares in the public offering to any person and is based solely on an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance on and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Indemnified Party through the Representatives expressly for use expressly for inclusion in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Final Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Permitted Issuer Information or any Application, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Indemnified Party consists of the information described as such in subsection (iii) below. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

(ii) Each of the Selling Stockholders, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and against any and all losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages, joint or several, (including any and all investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto)), to which such Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, liabilities expenses or damages (or actions, suits or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement made by a Selling Stockholder in Section 3(ii) of this Agreement, (b) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in (1) any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (2) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (C) any Permitted Issuer Information used or referred to in any “free writing prospectus” by any Underwriter or (D) any Application executed by such Selling Stockholder based upon written information furnished by or on behalf of such Selling Stockholder filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Shares under the securities or Blue Sky laws thereof or filed with the Commission or any securities association or securities exchange, or (c) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Permitted Issuer Information or any Application a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, 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 the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Permitted Issuer

Information or any Application, in reliance upon and in conformity with the Selling Stockholder Information furnished to the Company by such Selling Stockholder; provided, that such Selling Stockholder shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Final Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Indemnified Party through the Representatives expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Indemnified Party consists of the information described as such in subsection (iii) below. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Selling Stockholders may otherwise have.

(iii) Each Underwriter will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each Selling Stockholder against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or each Selling Stockholder may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein 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 the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use therein; and will reimburse the Company and each Selling Stockholder for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or such Selling Stockholder in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred. The Company and the Selling Stockholders acknowledge that, for all purposes under this Agreement, the statements set forth in the “Plan of Distribution” section under the subsections entitled “The OpenIPO Auction Process,” “Determination of Initial Public Offering Price,” “Allocation of Shares,” “Closing of the Auction and Allocation of Shares,” “Requirements for Valid Bids,” “Indemnity,” “Foreign Regulatory Restrictions on Purchase of Our Common Stock” and “Requirements for Valid Bids,” and the third paragraph under the subsection entitled “Lock-Up Agreements” in any Preliminary Prospectus and the Final Prospectus constitute the only information relating to the Underwriters furnished in writing to the Company by the Underwriters expressly for inclusion in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus.

(iv) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (i), (ii) or (iii) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such

indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under such subsection. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (a) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (b) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(v) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (i), (ii) or (iii) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Stockholders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Shares. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under subsection (iv) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company 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 (or actions in respect thereof), 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 Discount received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Final Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things,

whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Selling Stockholders on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company, each of the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (v) 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 above in this subsection (v). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (v) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (v), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the Underwriting Discount applicable to the Shares. 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 (v) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

9. Termination.

(i) The obligations of the Underwriters under this Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing Date, by notice to the Company from the Representatives, without liability on the part of the Underwriters to the Company or the Selling Stockholders if, prior to delivery and payment for the Shares, in the sole judgment of the Representatives: (a) there has occurred any material adverse change in the securities markets or any event, act or occurrence that has materially disrupted, or in the opinion of the Representatives, will in the future materially disrupt, the securities markets or there shall be such a material adverse change in general financial, political or economic conditions or the effect of international conditions on the financial markets in the United States is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, inadvisable or impracticable to market the Shares or enforce contracts for the sale of the Shares; (b) there has occurred any outbreak or material escalation of hostilities or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, inadvisable or impracticable to market the Shares or enforce contracts for the sale of the Shares; (c) trading in the Shares or any securities of the Company has been suspended or materially limited by the Commission or trading generally on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., NYSE Amex or the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum ranges for prices for securities shall have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities have been required, by any of said exchanges or by such system or by order of the Commission, FINRA, or any other governmental or regulatory authority; (d) a banking moratorium has been declared by any state or Federal authority; or (e) in the judgment of the Representatives, there has been,

since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Final Prospectus, any material adverse change in the assets, properties, condition, financial or otherwise, or in the results of operations, business affairs or business prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries considered as a whole, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business.

(ii) If this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to any of the provisions hereof, or if the sale of the Shares provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth herein is not satisfied or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company or the Selling Stockholders to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof, the Company will, subject to demand by the Underwriters, reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection herewith.
