its terms and conditions, the Selling Shareholders named in Schedule II hereto, severally and not
jointly, agree to sell to the Underwriters the Additional Shares, and the Underwriters shall have
the right to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to [_______________] Additional Shares at the
Purchase Price, with each Selling Shareholder selling not more than the amount set forth opposite
such Selling Shareholder’s name in Schedule II hereto; provided, however, that the amount paid by
the Underwriters for any Additional Shares shall be reduced by an amount per share equal to any
dividends declared by the Company and payable on the Firm Shares but not payable on such
12
Additional Shares. The Representatives may exercise this right on behalf of the Underwriters
in whole or from time to time in part by giving written notice not later than 30 days after the
date of this Agreement. Any exercise notice shall specify the number of Additional Shares to be
purchased by the Underwriters and the date on which such shares are to be purchased. Each purchase
date must be at least one business day after the written notice is given and may not be earlier
than the closing date for the Firm Shares nor later than ten business days after the date of such
notice. Additional Shares may be purchased as provided in Section 5 hereof solely for the purpose
of covering over-allotments made in connection with the offering of the Firm Shares. On each day,
if any, that Additional Shares are to be purchased (an “Option Closing Date”), each Underwriter
agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Additional Shares (subject to such
adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as the Representatives may determine) that bears the
same proportion to the total number of Additional Shares to be purchased on such Option Closing
Date as the number of Firm Shares set forth in Schedule III hereto opposite the name of such
Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm Shares.
The Company hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx on behalf
of the Underwriters, it will not, during the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and
ending 70 days after the date of the Prospectus, (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell
any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option,
right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly,
any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for
Common Stock or (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or
in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock, whether any such
transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or
such other securities, in cash or otherwise or (3) file any registration statement (other than on
Form S-8) with the Commission relating to the offering of any shares of Common Stock or any
securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock.
The restrictions contained in the preceding paragraph shall not apply to (a) the issuance by
the Company of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of an option or warrant or the conversion
of a security outstanding on the date hereof, (b) the grant of options or the issuance of shares of
Common Stock by the Company to employees, officers, directors or consultants of the Company or its
subsidiaries pursuant to equity incentive plans as described in the Time of Sale Prospectus,
provided that, prior to the issuance of any such shares or the grant of any such options or
convertible securities where the shares subject to such option or convertible security vest within
the period ending 70 days after the date of the Prospectus, the Company shall cause each recipient
of such grant or issuance to execute and deliver to the Representatives a “lock-up” agreement,
substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, (c) the establishment of a trading plan
pursuant to
13
Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of shares of Common Stock, provided that
such plan does not provide for the transfer of Common Stock during the 70-day restricted period and
no public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act regarding the establishment of such plan
shall be required of or voluntarily made by or on behalf of the Company, (d) the issuance by the
Company of shares of Common Stock in connection with any strategic transaction that includes a
commercial relationship involving the Company or its subsidiaries and other entities (including but
not limited to joint ventures, marketing or distribution arrangements, collaboration agreements or
intellectual property license agreements) or (e) the issuance by the Company of shares of Common
Stock in connection with any equipment loan or leasing arrangement, real property leasing
arrangement or debt financing from a bank or similar financial institution; provided, however,
that, in the case of issuances pursuant to clauses (d) and (e), the total aggregate number of
shares issued pursuant such clauses shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the total shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately following the Closing Date and any recipients of such shares
shall execute a lock-up agreement in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto.
Notwithstanding the foregoing and unless Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, on behalf of the Underwriters, waives such
extension in writing, if (1) during the last 17 days of the 70-day restricted period the Company
issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs; or
(2) prior to the expiration of the 70-day restricted period, the Company announces that it will
release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the 70-day period,
the restrictions imposed by this agreement shall continue to apply until the expiration of the
18-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material
news or material event. The Company shall promptly notify Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx of any earnings release,
news or event that may give rise to an extension of the initial 70-day restricted period.
4. Terms of Public Offering. The Selling Shareholders are advised by the Representatives that
the Underwriters propose to make a public offering of their respective portions of the Shares as
soon after the Registration Statement and this Agreement have become effective as in the
Representatives’ judgment is advisable. The Selling Shareholders are further advised by the
Representatives that the Shares are to be offered to the public initially at $[_____________] a
share (the “Public Offering Price”) and to certain dealers selected by the Representatives at a
price that represents a concession not in excess of $[______] a share under the Public Offering
Price.
5. Payment and Delivery. Payment for the Firm Shares to be sold by each Selling Shareholder
shall be made to such Selling Shareholder in Federal or other United States funds immediately
available in New York City against delivery of such Firm Shares for the respective accounts of the
several Underwriters at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on [____________], 2010, or at such other
time on the same or such other date, not later than [_________], 2010,
14
as shall be agreed in writing by the Representatives and the Company. The time and date of
such payment are hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date.”
Payment for any Additional Shares shall be made to each Selling Shareholder in Federal or
other United States funds immediately available in New York City against delivery of such
Additional Shares for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters at 10:00 a.m., New York
City time, on the date specified in the corresponding notice described in Section 3 or at such
other time on the same or on such other date, in any event not later than [_______], 2010, as shall
be agreed in writing by the Representatives and the Company.
The Firm Shares and Additional Shares shall be registered in such names and in such
denominations as the Representatives shall request in writing not later than one full business day
prior to the Closing Date or the applicable Option Closing Date, as the case may be. The Firm
Shares and Additional Shares shall be delivered to the Representatives on the Closing Date or an
Option Closing Date, as the case may be, for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters,
with any transfer taxes payable in connection with the transfer of the Shares to the Underwriters
duly paid, against payment of the Purchase Price therefor.
6. Conditions to the Underwriters’ Obligations. The obligations of the Selling Shareholders to
sell the Shares to the Underwriters and the several obligations of the Underwriters to purchase and
pay for the Shares on the Closing Date are subject to the condition that the Registration Statement
shall have become effective not later than [__________] [a.]/[p.][m.] New York City time on the
date hereof.
The several obligations of the Underwriters are subject to the following further conditions:
(a) Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date:
(i) there shall not have occurred any downgrading, nor shall any notice have been
given of any intended or potential downgrading or of any review for a possible change that
does not indicate the direction of the possible change, in the rating accorded any of the
securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries by any “nationally recognized
statistical rating organization,” as such term is defined for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2)
under the Securities Act; and
(ii) there shall not have occurred any change, or any development involving a
prospective change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business
or operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, from that set forth
in the Time of Sale Prospectus as of the date of this Agreement that, in the
Representatives’
15
judgment, is material and adverse and that makes it, in the Representatives’
judgment, impracticable to market the Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated
in the Time of Sale Prospectus.
(b) The Underwriters shall have received on the Closing Date a certificate, dated the Closing
Date and signed by an executive officer of the Company, to the effect set forth in Section 6(a)(i)

hereunder on or before the Closing Date.
The officer signing and delivering such certificate may rely upon his or her knowledge as to
proceedings threatened.

their opinions and beliefs are based upon their participation in the preparation of the
Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus and any amendments or
supplements thereto and review and discussion of the contents thereof, but are without independent
check or verification, except as specified. With respect to Section 6(d) above, Ropes & Xxxx LLP
and Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx, LLP may rely upon an opinion or
opinions of counsel for any Selling Shareholders and, with respect to factual matters and to the
extent such counsel deems appropriate, upon the representations of each
16
Selling Shareholder contained herein and in the Custody Agreement and Power of Attorney of such
Selling Shareholder and in other documents and instruments; provided that (A) each such counsel for
the Selling Shareholders is reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives’ counsel, (B) a copy of
each opinion so relied upon is delivered to the Representatives and is in form and substance

Shareholder referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph) shall be rendered to the
Underwriters at the request of the Company or one or more of the Selling Shareholders, as the case
may be, and shall so state therein.
(f) The Underwriters shall have received, on each of the date hereof and the Closing Date, a
letter dated the date hereof or the Closing Date, as the case may be, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Underwriters, from Ernst & Young LLP, independent public accountants,

letters” to underwriters with respect to the financial statements and certain financial information
contained in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus; provided
that the letter delivered on the Closing Date shall use a “cut-off date” not earlier than one
business day prior to the date hereof.

have been required to file thereunder.
(e) If the Time of Sale Prospectus is being used to solicit offers to buy the Shares at a time
when the Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers and any event shall occur or
condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale
Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances, not
misleading, or if any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which the Time of Sale
Prospectus conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement then on file, or
if, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time
of Sale Prospectus to comply with applicable law, forthwith to prepare, file with the Commission

opinion of counsel for the Underwriters the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to
in Rule 173(a) of the Securities Act) is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales
by an Underwriter or dealer, any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is
necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the
light of the circumstances when the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule
173(a) of the Securities Act) is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or if, in the opinion of
counsel for the Underwriters, it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with
applicable law, forthwith to prepare, file with the Commission and furnish, at its own expense, to
the Underwriters and to the dealers (whose names and addresses the Representatives will furnish to
the Company) to which Shares may have been sold by the Representatives on behalf of the
Underwriters and to any other dealers upon request, either amendments or supplements to the
Prospectus so that the statements in the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not, in the
light of the circumstances when the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule
173(a) of the Securities Act) is delivered to a purchaser, be misleading or so that the Prospectus,
as amended or supplemented, will comply with applicable law.
(g) To endeavor to qualify the Shares for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws

for use therein.
(b) Each Selling Shareholder agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless

Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the
Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the
Time of Sale Prospectus, any issuer free writing prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or

(d) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted
involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Sections 10(a), 10(b)
or 10(c), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such
indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon
request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified
party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in
such proceeding and shall pay the reasonably incurred fees and disbursements of such counsel
related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to
retain its own counsel, but the reasonably incurred fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at
the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party
shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such
proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due
to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying
party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any
proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for (i) the fees and expenses
of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Underwriters, the
directors, officers, employees and agents of any Underwriter, and all persons, if any, who control
any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act or who are affiliates of any Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under the
Securities Act, (ii) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local
counsel) for the Company, its directors, officers, employees and agents, including its officers who
sign the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the
meaning of either such Section and (iii) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in
addition to any local counsel) for all Selling Shareholders and all persons, if any, who control
any Selling Shareholder within the meaning of either such Section, and that all such fees and
expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the
Underwriters, and such directors, officers, employees,
23
agents, control persons and affiliates of any Underwriters, such firm shall be designated in
writing by the Representatives. In the case of any such separate firm for the Company, and such
directors, officers, employees, agents and control persons of the Company, such firm shall be
designated in writing by the Company. In the case of any such separate firm for the Selling
Shareholders and such control persons of any Selling Shareholders, such firm shall be designated in
writing by the persons named as attorneys-in-fact for the Selling Shareholders under the Powers of
Attorney. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected
without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for
the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against
any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to
reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and
third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any
settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered
into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii)
such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such
request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior
written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity
could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) includes an
unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject
matter of such proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault,
culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
(e) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Sections 10(a), 10(b) or 10(c) is
unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of
indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by
such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or
parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand from the offering of
the Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 10(e)(i) above is not permitted by
applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
referred to in clause 10(e)(i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or
parties on the one hand and of the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection
with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as
well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company
and the Selling Shareholders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection
with the offering of the
24
Shares shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the
offering of the Shares (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and each Selling
Shareholder and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in
each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate Public
Offering Price of the Shares. The relative fault of the Company and the Selling Shareholders on
the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the
Selling Shareholders or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Underwriters’
respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 10 are several in proportion to the
respective number of Shares they have purchased hereunder, and not joint. The liability of each
Selling Shareholder under the contribution agreement contained in this paragraph when taken
together with any amounts paid by such Selling Shareholder pursuant to the other terms and
conditions of this Section 10 shall be limited to an amount equal to the aggregate Public Offering
Price of the Shares, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, sold by such Selling
Shareholder under this Agreement. The Selling Shareholders’ obligations to contribute pursuant to
this Section 10 are several in proportion to the net proceeds received by them as calculated
pursuant to the preceding sentence, and not joint.
(f) The Company, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just
or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10 were determined by pro rata allocation
(even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of
allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 10(e).
The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and
liabilities referred to in Section 10(e) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set
forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Section 10, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess
of the amount by which the total price at which the Shares underwritten by it and distributed to
the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has
otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty
of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 10 are not
exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any
indemnified party at law or in equity.
25
(g) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 10 and the
representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Selling Shareholders
contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i)
any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter,
any directors, officers, employees or agents of any Underwriter, any person controlling any
Underwriter or any affiliate of any Underwriter, any Selling Shareholder or any person controlling
any Selling Shareholder, or the Company, its officers, directors, employees or agents or any person
controlling the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Shares.
11. Termination. The Representatives, on behalf of the Underwriters, may terminate this
Agreement by notice given by the Representatives to the Company, if after the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been
suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, any of the New York Stock Exchange,
the American Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Global Market, (ii) trading of any securities of the
Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (iii) a
material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States
shall have occurred, (iv) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared
by Federal or New York State authorities or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or
escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in
the Representatives’ judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other
event specified in this clause (v), makes it, in the Representatives’ judgment, impracticable or
inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Shares on the terms and in the
manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus.
12. Effectiveness; Defaulting Underwriters. This Agreement shall become effective upon the
execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.
If, on the Closing Date or an Option Closing Date, as the case may be, any one or more of the
Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Shares that it has or they have agreed to purchase
hereunder on such date, and the aggregate number of Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or
Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate
number of the Shares to be purchased on such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated
severally in the proportions that the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite their respective
names in Schedule III bears to the aggregate number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the names of
all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as the Representatives may
specify, to purchase the Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed
or refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the number of Shares that any
Underwriter has agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section
12 by an amount in excess of one-ninth of such
26
number of Shares without the written consent of such Underwriter. If, on the Closing Date,
any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Firm Shares and the aggregate
number of Firm Shares with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the
aggregate number of Firm Shares to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to the
Representatives, the Company and the Selling Shareholders for the purchase of such Firm Shares are
not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on
the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter, the Company or the Selling Shareholders. In any such
case either the Representatives or the relevant Selling Shareholders shall have the right to
postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required
changes, if any, in the Registration Statement, in the Time of Sale Prospectus, in the Prospectus
or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. If, on an Option Closing Date, any
Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Additional Shares and the aggregate
number of Additional Shares with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the
aggregate number of Additional Shares to be purchased on such Option Closing Date, the
non-defaulting Underwriters shall have the option to (i) terminate their obligation hereunder to
purchase the Additional Shares to be sold on such Option Closing Date or (ii) purchase not less
than the number of Additional Shares that such non-defaulting Underwriters would have been
obligated to purchase in the absence of such default. Any action taken under this paragraph shall
not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter
under this Agreement.
If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters, or any of them, because of any
failure or refusal on the part of any Selling Shareholder to comply with the terms or to fulfill
any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason any Selling Shareholder shall be
unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, such defaulting Selling Shareholder(s) will
reimburse the Underwriters or such Underwriters as have so terminated this Agreement with respect
to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and
disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Underwriters in connection with this
Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.
13. Entire Agreement. (a) This Agreement, together with any contemporaneous written
agreements and any prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement) that
relate to the offering of the Shares, represents the entire agreement between the Company and the
Selling Shareholders, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, with respect to the
preparation of any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, the conduct
of the offering, and the purchase and sale of the Shares.
(b) The Company acknowledges that in connection with the offering of the Shares: (i) the
Underwriters have acted at arms length, are not agents of,
27
and owe no fiduciary duties to, the Company or any other person, (ii) the Underwriters owe the
Company only those duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement and prior written agreements
(to the extent not superseded by this Agreement), if any, and (iii) the Underwriters may have
interests that differ from those of the Company. The Company waives to the full extent permitted
by applicable law any claims it may have against the Underwriters arising from an alleged breach of
fiduciary duty in connection with the offering of the Shares.
14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of which
shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the
same instrument.
15. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of New York.
16. Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for
convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed a part of this Agreement.
17. Notices. All communications hereunder shall be in writing and effective only upon receipt

Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned understands that Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. Incorporated (“Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx”),
Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and X.X. Xxxxxx Securities LLC (the “Representatives”) propose to
enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Qlik Technologies Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the selling stockholders to be named therein, providing
for the public offering (the “Public Offering”) by the several Underwriters, including the
Representatives (the “Underwriters”), of shares (the “Shares”) of the common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”).
To induce the Underwriters that may participate in the Public Offering to continue their
efforts in connection with the Public Offering, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the
prior written consent of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx on behalf of the Underwriters, it will not, during the
period commencing on the date hereof and ending 70 days after the date of the final prospectus
relating to the Public Offering (the “Prospectus”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell
any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option,
right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly,
any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible
into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock or (2) enter into any swap or other
arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of
ownership of the Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is
to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise. The
foregoing sentence shall not apply to sales of securities pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement or
to (a) transactions relating to shares of Common Stock or other securities acquired in open market
transactions after the completion of the Public Offering, provided that no filing under Section
16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (other than a filing
on a Form 5, Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G (or 13D/A or 13G/A) made after the expiration of the
restricted period referred to in the foregoing sentence), shall be required or shall be voluntarily
made in connection with subsequent sales of Common Stock or other securities acquired in such open
market transactions, (b) transfers of shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into
Common Stock as a bona fide gift, (c) distributions of shares of Common Stock or any security
convertible into Common Stock to partners, members or stockholders of the undersigned; provided
that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (b) or (c), (i) each donee or
distributee shall sign and deliver a lock-up letter substantially in the form of this letter and
(ii) no filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, reporting a reduction in beneficial
ownership of shares of Common Stock, shall be required or shall be voluntarily made during the
restricted period referred to in the foregoing sentence (other than a filing on a Form 5, Schedule
13D or Schedule 13G (or 13D/A or 13G/A) made after the expiration of the restricted period referred
to in the foregoing sentence), (d) transfers of shares of Common Stock or any security convertible
into Common Stock to (i) a spouse, parent, child or grandchild of the undersigned (a “Relation”),
(ii) a trust, the only beneficiaries of which are the undersigned and/or one or more of its
Relations, (iii) a corporation or other entity of which the undersigned and/or its Relations are at
all times the direct or indirect legal and beneficial owners of all of the outstanding equity
securities or similar interests of such corporation or other entity or (iv) a partnership, the
partners of which are exclusively the undersigned and/or its Relations; provided that in the case
of any transfer pursuant to this clause (d), (1) each transferee shall sign and deliver a lock-up
letter substantially in the form of this letter and (2) no filing under Section 16(a) of the
Exchange Act, reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock, shall be
required or shall be voluntarily made during the restricted period referred to in the foregoing
sentence (other than a filing on a Form 5, Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G (or 13D/A or 13G/A) made
after the expiration of the restricted period referred to in the foregoing sentence), (e) the
receipt by the undersigned from the Company of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of an
option or warrant or in connection with the vesting of restricted stock or restricted stock units,
or the disposition of shares of Common Stock to the Company in a transaction exempt from Section
16(b) of the Exchange Act
A-2
solely in connection with the payment of taxes due, provided that no filing under Section
16(a) of the Exchange Act, reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock,
shall be required or shall be voluntarily made during the restricted period referred to in the
foregoing sentence (other than a filing on a Form 5, Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G (or 13D/A or
13G/A) made after the expiration of the restricted period referred to in the foregoing sentence),
(f) the establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act
for the transfer of shares of Common Stock, provided that such plan does not provide for the
transfer of Common Stock during the restricted period and no public announcement or filing under
the Exchange Act regarding the establishment of such plan shall be required of or voluntarily made
by or on behalf of the undersigned or the Company or (g) the exercise of options to acquire Common
Stock or the conversion of any security convertible into Common Stock, provided that any shares of
Common Stock received upon such exercise or conversion shall be subject to this agreement and
provided further that no filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, reporting a reduction in
beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock, shall be required or shall be voluntarily made
during the restricted period referred to in the foregoing sentence (other than a filing on a Form
5, Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G (or 13D/A or 13G/A) made after the expiration of the restricted
period referred to in the foregoing sentence). In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without
the prior written consent of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx on behalf of the Underwriters, it will not, during the
period commencing on the date hereof and ending 70 days after the date of the Prospectus, make any
demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any shares of Common Stock or
any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock. The undersigned
also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer
agent and registrar against the transfer of the undersigned’s shares of Common Stock except in
compliance with the foregoing restrictions.
If:
(1) during the last 17 days of the restricted period the Company issues an earnings release or
material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs; or
(2) prior to the expiration of the restricted period, the Company announces that it will
release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the restricted
period;
the restrictions imposed by this agreement shall continue to apply until the expiration of the
18-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material
news or material event.
A-3
The undersigned shall not engage in any transaction that may be restricted by this agreement
during the 34-day period beginning on the last day of the initial restricted period unless the
undersigned requests and receives prior written confirmation from the Company or Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx
that the restrictions imposed by this agreement have expired.
The undersigned understands that the Company and the Underwriters are relying upon this
agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the Public Offering. The undersigned further
understands that this agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs,
legal representatives, successors and assigns.
Whether or not the Public Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including
market conditions. Any Public Offering will only be made pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement,
the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Underwriters.
The undersigned understands that if (i) the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions
thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and
delivery of the Common Stock proposed for sale thereunder, (ii) the Company notifies Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx
in writing that it does not intend to proceed with the Public Offering, or (iii) the initial
closing of the Public Offering does not occur on or prior to December 31, 2010, the undersigned
shall be released from all obligations under this agreement.
This agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State
of New York.
