Xxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Introductory. CACI International Inc, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell to the several underwriters named in Schedule A (the “Underwriters”) an
aggregate of 4,250,000 shares (the “Firm Common Shares”) of its Class A Common Stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Common Stock”). In addition, the Company proposes to grant to the Underwriters an option to purchase up to an
additional 637,500 shares (the “Optional Common Shares”) of Common Stock, as provided in Section 2. The Firm Common Shares and, if and to the extent such option is exercised, the Optional Common Shares are collectively called the
“Common Shares.” Banc of America Securities LLC (“BAS”), Xxxxxxx Xxxxx & Associates, Inc. (“Xxxxxxx Xxxxx”), U.S. Bancorp Xxxxx Xxxxxxx Inc., Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxx, Incorporated and Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxx & Xxxx, Inc. have
agreed to act as representatives of the several Underwriters (in such capacity, the “Representatives”) in connection with the offering and sale of the Common Shares.
The Company has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333–82346), which contains
a form of prospectus to be used in connection with the public offering and sale of the Common Shares. Such registration statement, as amended, including the financial statements, exhibits and schedules thereto, in the form in which it was declared
effective by the Commission under the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “Securities Act”), all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, including
any information deemed to be a part thereof at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430A or Rule 434 under the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the
“Exchange Act”), is called the “Registration Statement.” Any registratin statement filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act is called the “Rule 462(b) Registration Statement”, and from and
after the date and time of filing of the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement the term “Registration Statement” shall include the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement. Such prospectus, in the form first used by the Underwriters to confirm
sales of the Common Shares, is called the “Prospectus”; provided, however, if the Company has, with the consent of BAS, elected to rely upon Rule 434 under the Securities Act, the term “Prospectus” shall mean the
Company’s prospectus subject to
Table of Contents
completion (each, a “preliminary prospectus”) dated February 19, 2002 (such preliminary prospectus is called the “Rule 434 preliminary prospectus”), together with the
applicable term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) prepared and filed by the Company with the Commission under Rules 434 and 424(b) under the Securities Act and all references in this Agreement to the date of the Prospectus shall mean the date of
the Term Sheet. All references in this Agreement to the Registration Statement, the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement, a preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus or the Term Sheet, or any amendments or supplements to any of the foregoing, shall
include any copy thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (“XXXXX”).
All references in this Agreement to financial statements and schedules and other information which is “contained,” “included” or “stated” in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus
(and all other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such financial statements and schedules and other information which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as
the case may be; and all references in this Agreement to amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to mean and include the filing of any document under the Exchange Act which is or is deemed to be
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be.
The Company hereby confirms its
agreements with the Underwriters as follows:
The Company hereby
represents, warrants and covenants to each Underwriter as follows:
(a) Compliance with Registration Requirements. The Registration Statement and any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement have been declared effective by the Commission under the
Securities Act. To its knowledge, the Company has complied with all requests of the Commission for additional or supplemental information. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any Rule 462(b) Registration
Statement is in effect, and no proceedings for such purpose have been instituted or are pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, are contemplated or threatened by the Commission.
Each preliminary prospectus and the Prospectus when filed complied in all material respects with the Securities Act and, if filed by electronic transmission pursuant to XXXXX (except as
may be permitted by Regulation S-T under the Securities Act), was identical in all material respects to the copy thereof delivered to the Underwriters for use in connection with the offer and sale of the Common Shares. 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 all subsequent times, 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 the final form of supplemental pages to the
Prospectus that, together with the Prospectus, comprise the Canadian Private Placement Offering Memorandum dated March , 2002, the “Canadian Private Placement Offering Memorandum”), as amended or supplemented, as of
its date and at all subsequent times, 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 the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading. The representations, warranties and covenants 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

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 Representatives have reasonably requested for each of the Underwriters.
(c) Distribution of Offering Material By the Company. The Company has not distributed and will not distribute, prior to the later of the Second Closing Date (as defined below) and
the completion of the Underwriters’ distribution of the Common Shares, any offering material in connection with the offering and sale of the Common Shares other than a preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus or the Registration Statement. The
Company has not authorized any person to distribute any offering material in connection with the offering and sale of the Common Shares other than a preliminary prospectus and the Prospectus.
(d) The Underwriting Agreement. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and is a valid and binding agreement of, the Company, enforceable in accordance
with its terms, except as rights to indemnification hereunder may be limited by applicable law and except as the enforcement hereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting
the rights and remedies of creditors or by general equitable principles.
(e) Authorization of the Common Shares. The Common Shares to be purchased by the Underwriters from the Company have been duly authorized for issuance and sale pursuant to this
Agreement and, when issued and delivered by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
(f) No Applicable Registration or Other Similar Rights. There are no persons with registration or other similar rights to have any equity or debt securities registered for sale under the
Registration Statement or included in the offering contemplated by this Agreement, except for such rights as have been duly waived.
(g) No Material Adverse Change. Except as otherwise disclosed in the Prospectus, subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is given in the Prospectus: (i) there
has been no material adverse change, or any development that could reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business, operations or prospects, whether or not arising
from transactions in the ordinary course of business, of the Company and its subsidiaries, considered as one entity (any such change is called a “Material Adverse Change”); (ii) the Company and its subsidiaries, considered as one entity,
have not incurred any material liability or obligation, indirect, direct or contingent, not in the ordinary course of business nor entered into any material transaction or agreement not in the ordinary course of business; and (iii) there has been no
dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or made by the Company or, except for dividends paid to the Company or other subsidiaries, any of its subsidiaries on any
3

class of capital stock or repurchase or redemption by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any class of capital stock.
(h) Independent Accountants. Deloitte & Touche LLP, who have expressed their opinion with respect to the financial statements (which term as used in this Agreement includes the
related notes thereto) and supporting schedules filed with the Commission as a part of the Registration Statement and included in the Prospectus, are independent public or certified public accountants as required by the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act.
(i) Preparation of the Financial Statements. The financial statements filed with the Commission as a part of the Registration Statement and included in the Prospectus (A) present
fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of and at the dates indicated and the results of their operations and cash flows for the periods specified and (B) present fairly the

supporting schedules included in the Registration Statement present fairly in all material respects the information required to be stated therein. Such financial statements and supporting schedules have been prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles as applied in the United States applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved, except as may be expressly stated in the related notes thereto. No other financial statements or supporting schedules are
required to be included in the Registration Statement. The financial data set forth in the Prospectus under the captions “Prospectus Summary—Summary Consolidated Financial Data”, “Selected Consolidated Financial Data” and
“Capitalization” fairly present in all material respects the information set forth therein on a basis consistent with that of the audited financial statements contained in the Registration Statement. The pro forma consolidated financial
statements of the Company and its subsidiaries and the related notes thereto incorporated by reference in the Prospectus and in the Registration Statement present fairly the information contained therein, have been prepared in accordance with the

therein are appropriate to give effect to the transactions and circumstances referred to therein.

corporation in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Prospectus and, in the case of the
Company, to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement except for such jurisdictions where the failure of any such subsidiary to exist as a corporation in good standing would not result in a Material Adverse Change. Each of the
Company and its subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the
conduct of business, except for such jurisdictions where the failure to so qualify or to be in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change. All of the issued and outstanding capital stock of each
subsidiary has been duly authorized and validly issued, is fully paid and nonassessable and, except for shares of CACI N.V. and CACI Nederland B.V., each a Netherlands corporation, required by Netherlands law to be held by another person, is owned
by the Company, directly or through subsidiaries, free and clear of any security interest, mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or claim. The

“Capitalization” (other than for subsequent issuances, if any, pursuant to employee benefit plans described in the Prospectus or upon exercise of options described in the Prospectus). The Common Stock (including the Common Shares) conforms
in all material respects to the description thereof contained in the Prospectus. All of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and have been issued in
compliance with federal and state securities laws. None of the outstanding shares of Common Stock were issued in violation of any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities of the
Company. There are no authorized or outstanding options, warrants, preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other rights to purchase, or equity or debt securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, any capital stock of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries other than those described in the Prospectus. The description of the Company’s stock option, stock bonus and other stock plans or arrangements, and the options or other rights granted thereunder, set forth in
the Prospectus accurately presents in all material respects the information required to be shown with respect to such plans, arrangements, options and rights.

required by Section A of Part V of such form. Within ten days after the issuance of the Firm Common Shares pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall file with the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. an executed Notification Form: Change in the Number of

(m) Non-Contravention of Existing Instruments; No Further Authorizations or Approvals Required. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is in violation of its charter or
by-laws or is in default (or, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, would be in default) (“Default”) under any indenture, mortgage, loan or credit agreement, note, contract, franchise, lease or other agreement or instrument to which
the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of them may be bound (including, without limitation, the Company’s credit facilities), or to which any of the property or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries
is subject (each, an “Existing Instrument”), except for such Defaults as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change. The Company’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Prospectus (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and will not result in any violation of the provisions of the charter or by-laws of the Company or any
subsidiary, (ii) will not conflict with or constitute a breach of, or Default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to, or
require the consent of any other party to, any Existing Instrument, except for such conflicts, breaches, Defaults, liens, charges or encumbrances as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change and (iii) will not
result
5
Table of Contents
in any violation of any law, administrative regulation or administrative or court decree applicable to the Company or any subsidiary except, in the case of paragraph (iii), for such violations as
would not result in a Material Adverse Change. No consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration or filing with, any court or other governmental or regulatory authority or agency, is required for the Company’s execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Prospectus and Canadian Private Placement Offering Memorandum, except (A) such as have been obtained or made by the Company and are in
full force and effect under the Securities Act, such as may be required under applicable state securities or blue sky laws and such as may be required from or with the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. and the NASD and (B) such as may be required under the
laws and regulations of the Provinces of Canada in which the Common Shares are offered, including the requirement to file reports in respect of any sales in the Provinces of Canada with the applicable provincial securities regulatory authorities.
(n) No Material Actions or Proceedings. Except as otherwise disclosed in the Prospectus, there are no legal or governmental actions, suits, proceedings, audits, inquiries, or
investigations pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened (i) against or affecting the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) which has as the subject thereof any executive officer or director of, or property owned or leased by, the
Company or any of its subsidiaries or (iii) relating to environmental or discrimination matters involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries, where in any such case (A) there is a reasonable possibility that such action, suit, proceeding, audit,
inquiry or investigation will be determined adversely to the Company or such subsidiary and (B) any such action, suit, proceeding, audit, inquiry or investigation, if so determined adversely, would result in a Material Adverse Change or materially
adversely affect the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No material labor dispute with the employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or, to the Company’s knowledge, with the employees of any principal
supplier of the Company, exists or, to the Company’s knowledge, is threatened or imminent.
(o) Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its subsidiaries own or possess trademarks, trade names, patent rights, copyrights, domain names, licenses, approvals, trade
secrets and other similar rights (collectively, “Intellectual Property Rights”) reasonably necessary to conduct their businesses as now conducted; and the expected expiration of any of such Intellectual Property Rights would not result in
a Material Adverse Change. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has received any notice of infringement or conflict with asserted Intellectual Property Rights of others, which infringement or conflict would reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Change. The Company is not a party to or bound by any options, licenses or agreements with respect to the Intellectual Property Rights of any other person or entity that are required to be set forth in the Prospectus and
are not described as required in all material respects. None of the technology reasonably necessary to conduct the business of the Company and its subsidiaries has been obtained or is being used by the Company in violation of any contractual
obligation binding on the Company or, to the Company’s knowledge, any of its officers, directors or employees or otherwise in violation of the rights of any persons, in any case where such violation would result in a Material Adverse Change.
(p) All Necessary Permits, etc. The Company and each subsidiary possess such valid and current certificates, authorizations (including without
limitation security clearances issued to the Company, each such subsidiary and any relevant employees thereof) or permits issued by the appropriate state, federal or foreign regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct their respective
businesses, except such certificates, authorizations and permits the absence of which, individually or in the aggregate, would not result in a Material Adverse Change, and neither the Company nor any subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings
6
Table of Contents
relating to the revocation or modification of, or non-compliance with, any such certificate, authorization or permit which, singly or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Change.
(q) Title to Properties. Each of the Company and its subsidiaries has good and marketable title to all the properties and assets reflected as owned in the financial statements
referred to in Section 1(A)(i) above, in each case free and clear of any security interests, mortgages, liens, encumbrances, equities, claims and other defects, except such as do not materially and adversely affect the value of such property and do
not materially interfere with the use made or proposed to be made of such property by the Company or such subsidiary. The real property, improvements, equipment and personal property held under lease by the Company or any subsidiary are held under
valid and enforceable leases, with such exceptions as are not material and do not materially interfere with the use made or proposed to be made of such real property, improvements, equipment or personal property by the Company or such subsidiary.
(r) Tax Law Compliance. The Company and its consolidated subsidiaries have filed all necessary federal, state and foreign income and franchise tax returns or have filed for
extensions thereof, and have paid all taxes required to be paid by any of them and, if due and payable, any related or similar assessment, fine or penalty levied against any of them, except such taxes, assessments, fines and penalties as the Company
or any subsidiary is contesting in good faith. The Company has made adequate charges, accruals and reserves in the applicable financial statements referred to in Section 1(A)(i) above in respect of all federal, state and foreign income and franchise
taxes for all periods as to which the tax liability of the Company or any of its consolidated subsidiaries has not been finally determined.
(s) Company Not an “Investment Company.” The Company is not, and after receipt of payment for the Common Shares will not be, an “investment company” within
the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”).
(t) Insurance. Each of the Company and its subsidiaries is insured by recognized, financially sound and reputable institutions with policies in such amounts and with such
deductibles and covering such risks as are generally deemed adequate and customary for their businesses including, but not limited to, policies covering real and personal property owned or leased by the Company and its subsidiaries against theft,
damage, destruction, acts of vandalism and earthquakes. Except as otherwise disclosed in the Prospectus, the Company has no reason to believe that it or any subsidiary will not be able (i) to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such
policies expire or (ii) to obtain comparable coverage from similar institutions as may be necessary or appropriate to conduct its business as now conducted and at a cost that would not result in a Material Adverse Change. Neither the Company nor any
subsidiary has been denied any insurance coverage which it has sought or for which it has applied.
(u) No Price Stabilization or Manipulation. The Company has not taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that might be reasonably expected to cause or result in stabilization
or manipulation of the price of the Common Stock to facilitate the sale or resale of the Common Shares. The Company acknowledges that the Underwriters may engage in passive market making transactions in the Common Shares on the Nasdaq National
Market in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act.

Securities Act or the Exchange Act to be described in the Prospectus which have not been described as so required.
(w) No Unlawful Contributions or Other Payments. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries nor, to the Company’s knowledge, any employee or agent of the Company or any
subsidiary, has made any contribution or other payment to any official of, or candidate for, any federal, state or foreign office in violation of any law or of the character required to be disclosed in the Prospectus.
(x) Company’s Accounting System. The Company maintains a system of accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that (i) transactions are executed in
accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles as applied in the United
States and to maintain accountability for assets; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with existing assets at
reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences; and (v) costs are recorded and allocated in compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (the “FAR”) and the state and local equivalents of the
FAR, if any, including, but not limited to, applicable cost accounting standards specified thereunder.
(y) Exchange Act Compliance. The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, at the time they were or hereafter are filed with the
Commission, complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act, and, when read together with the other information in the Prospectus, at the time the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto become
effective and at the First Closing Date and the Second Closing Date (as defined below), as the case may be, will not contain an 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, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, this representation, warranty and covenant shall not apply to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information that the Underwriters have furnished to the Company expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any
amendment or supplement thereto) as described in Section 8(b).
(z) Compliance with Environmental Laws. Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change: (i) neither the Company nor any of its
subsidiaries is in violation of any federal, state, local or foreign law or regulation relating to pollution or protection of human health or the environment (including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater, land surface or
subsurface strata) or wildlife, including without limitation, laws and regulations relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of chemicals, pollutants, contaminants, wastes, toxic substances, hazardous substances, petroleum
and petroleum products (collectively, “Materials of Environmental Concern”), or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of Materials of Environment Concern
(collectively, “Environmental Laws”), which violation includes, but is not limited to, noncompliance with any permits or other governmental authorizations required for the operation of the business of the Company or its subsidiaries under
applicable Environmental
8
Table of Contents
Laws, or noncompliance with the terms and conditions thereof, nor has the Company or any of its subsidiaries received
any written communication, whether from a governmental authority, citizens group, employee or otherwise, that alleges that the Company or any of its subsidiaries is in violation of any Environmental Law; (ii) there is no claim, action or cause of
action filed with a court or governmental authority, no investigation with respect to which the Company has received written notice, and no written notice by any person or entity alleging potential liability for investigatory costs, cleanup costs,
governmental response costs, natural resources damages, property damages, personal injuries, attorneys’ fees or penalties arising out of, based on or resulting from the presence, or release into the environment, of any Material of Environmental
Concern at any location owned, leased or operated by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, now or in the past (collectively, “Environmental Claims”), pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened against the Company or any of
its subsidiaries or any person or entity whose liability for any Environmental Claim the Company or any of its subsidiaries has retained or assumed either contractually or by operation of law; and (iii) to the Company’s knowledge, there are no
past or present actions, activities, circumstances, conditions, events or incidents, including, without limitation, the release, emission, discharge, presence or disposal of any Material of Environmental Concern, that would reasonably be expected to
result in a violation of any Environmental Law or form the basis of a potential Environmental Claim against the Company or any of its subsidiaries or against any person or entity whose liability for any Environmental Claim the Company or any of its
subsidiaries has retained or assumed either contractually or by operation of law.
(aa) ERISA Compliance. The Company and its subsidiaries and each “employee benefit plan” (as defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended, and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder (collectively, “ERISA”)) established or maintained by the Company, its subsidiaries or their “ERISA Affiliates” (as defined below) are in compliance in all
material respects with ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder (the “Code”). “ERISA Affiliate” means, with respect to the Company or a subsidiary, any
member of any group of organizations described in Sections 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code of which the Company or such subsidiary is a member. No “reportable event” (as defined under ERISA) has occurred or is reasonably expected to
occur with respect to any “employee benefit plan” established or maintained by the Company, its subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates, except such as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No
“employee benefit plan” established or maintained by the Company, its subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates, if such “employee benefit plan” were terminated, would have any “amount of unfunded benefit
liabilities” (as defined under ERISA), except such as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company, its subsidiaries nor any of their ERISA Affiliates has incurred or reasonably expects to incur
any liability under (i) Title IV of ERISA with respect to termination of, or withdrawal from, any “employee benefit plan” or (ii) Sections 412, 4971, 4975 or 4980B of the Code, except such as would not reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect. Each “employee benefit plan” established or maintained by the Company, its subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and nothing
has occurred, whether by action or failure to act, which would cause the loss of such qualification, except such as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No event or series of events described in this Section 1(aa)
has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
9
Table of Contents
For purposes of this Section 1(aa), “Material Adverse Effect” means a material
adverse effect on (a) the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business, operations or prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries, considered as one entity, (b) the rights and remedies of the Underwriters under this
Agreement, or (c) the ability of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
(bb) Brokers. Except for the Underwriters, there is no broker, finder or other party that is entitled to receive from the Company any brokerage or finder’s fee or similar
fee or commission as a result of any transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The First Closing Date. Delivery of certificates for the Firm
Common Shares to be purchased by the Underwriters and payment therefor shall be made at the offices of BAS, 000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx (or such other place as may be agreed to by the Company and the Representatives) at 6:00
a.m. San Francisco time, on [ ], or such other time and date not later than 10:30 a.m. San Francisco time, on
[ ] as the Representatives shall designate by notice to the Company (the time and date of such closing are called the “First Closing Date”). The Company hereby
acknowledges that circumstances under which the Representatives may provide notice to postpone the First Closing Date as originally scheduled include, but are in no way limited to, any determination by the Company or the Representatives to
recirculate to the public copies of an amended or supplemented Prospectus or a delay as contemplated by the provisions of Section 10.
The Optional Common Shares; the Second Closing Date. In addition, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, and upon the terms but subject to the conditions herein set
forth, the Company hereby grants an option to the several Underwriters to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to an aggregate of 637,500 Optional Common Shares from the Company at the purchase price per share to be paid by the Underwriters for
the Firm Common Shares. The option granted hereunder is for use by the Underwriters solely in covering any over-allotments in connection with the sale and distribution of the Firm Common Shares. The option granted hereunder may be exercised at any
time (but not more than once) upon written notice by the Representatives to the Company, which notice may be given at any time within 30 days from the date of this Agreement. Such notice shall set forth (i) the aggregate number of Optional Common
Shares as to which the Underwriters are exercising the option, (ii) the names and denominations in which the certificates for the Optional Common Shares are to be registered and (iii) the time, date and place at which such certificates will be
delivered (which time and date may be simultaneous with, but not earlier than, the First Closing Date; and in such case the term “First Closing Date” shall refer to the time and date of delivery of certificates for the Firm Common Shares
and the Optional Common Shares). Such time and date of delivery, if subsequent to the First Closing Date, is called the “Second Closing Date” and shall be determined by the Representatives and shall not be earlier than three nor later than
five full business days after delivery of such notice of exercise. If any Optional Common Shares are to be purchased, (a) each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Optional Common Shares (subject to such
adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as the Representatives may determine) that bears the same proportion to the total number of Optional Common Shares to be purchased as the number of Firm Common Shares set forth on Schedule A opposite
the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm Common Shares. The Representatives may cancel the option at any time prior to its expiration by giving written notice of such cancellation to the Company.
Public Offering of the Common Shares. The Representatives hereby advise the Company that the Underwriters intend to offer
for sale to the public, as described in the Prospectus, their respective portions of the Common Shares as soon after this Agreement has been executed and the Registration Statement has been declared effective as the Representatives, in their sole
judgment, have determined is advisable and practicable.
Payment for the Common Shares. Payment
for the Common Shares shall be made at the First Closing Date (and, if applicable, at the Second Closing Date) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the order of the Company.

Table of Contents
It is understood that the Representatives have been authorized, for their own accounts and the
accounts of the several Underwriters, to accept delivery of and receipt for, and make payment of the purchase price for, the Firm Common Shares and any Optional Common Shares the Underwriters have agreed to purchase. BAS, individually and not as a
Representative of the Underwriters, may (but shall not be obligated to) make payment for any Common Shares to be purchased by any Underwriter whose funds shall not have been received by the Representatives by the First Closing Date or the Second
Closing Date, as the case may be, for the account of such Underwriter, but any such payment shall not relieve such Underwriter from any of its obligations under this Agreement.
Delivery of the Common Shares. The Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Representatives for the accounts of the several Underwriters
certificates for the Firm Common Shares at the First Closing Date, against the irrevocable release of a wire transfer of immediately available funds for the amount of the purchase price therefor. The Company shall also deliver, or cause to be
delivered, to the Representatives for the accounts of the several Underwriters, certificates for the Optional Common Shares the Underwriters have agreed to purchase at the First Closing Date or the Second Closing Date, as the case may be, against
the irrevocable release of a wire transfer of immediately available funds for the amount of the purchase price therefor. The certificates for the Common Shares shall be in definitive form and registered in such names and denominations as the
Representatives shall have requested at least two full business days prior to the First Closing Date (or the Second Closing Date, as the case may be) and shall be made available for inspection on the business day preceding the First Closing Date (or
the Second Closing Date, as the case may be) at a location in New York City as the Representatives may designate. Time shall be of the essence, and delivery at the time and place specified in this Agreement is a further condition to the obligations
of the Underwriters.
Delivery of Prospectus to the Underwriters. Not later than 12:00 p.m. on the
second business day following the date the Common Shares are first released by the Underwriters for sale to the public, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered, copies of the Prospectus in such quantities and at such places as the
Representatives shall reasonably request.
The Company further covenants and agrees with each
Underwriter as follows:
(a) Representatives’ Review of Proposed Amendments and Supplements During the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the later of the First Closing Date
or such date as, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, the Prospectus is no longer required by law to be delivered in connection with sales by an Underwriter or dealer (the “Prospectus Delivery Period”), prior to
amending or supplementing the Registration Statement (including any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement) or the Prospectus (including any amendment or supplement through incorporation by reference of any report filed under the Exchange Act), the
Company shall furnish to each of the Representatives 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 Representatives reasonably and promptly
object.
(b) Securities Act Compliance. During the Prospectus Delivery Period, the Company shall promptly advise the Representatives in writing (i) of the receipt of any comments of, or
12
Table of Contents
requests for additional or supplemental information from, the Commission, (ii) 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, (iii) of the time and date that any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement becomes effective and
(iv) 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 preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or the
Prospectus, or of any proceedings to remove, suspend or terminate from listing or quotation the Common Stock from any securities exchange upon which it is listed for trading or included or designated for quotation, or of the threatening or
initiation of any proceedings for any of such purposes. If the Commission shall enter any such stop order at any time, the Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain the lifting of such order at the earliest possible moment.
Additionally, the Company agrees that it shall comply with the provisions of Rules 424(b), 430A and 434, as applicable, under the Securities Act 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) Amendments and Supplements to the Prospectus and
Other Securities Act Matters. If, during the Prospectus Delivery Period, 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 is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or if in the reasonable opinion of the Representatives’ internal counsel or counsel for the Underwriters it is otherwise
necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with law, the Company agrees to promptly prepare (subject to Section 3(a) hereof), file with the Commission and furnish at its own expense to the Underwriters and to dealers, 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 is delivered to a purchaser, be misleading or so that the Prospectus, as amended or
supplemented, will comply with law. The Underwriters shall use their commercially reasonable best efforts to cease to use the Prospectus upon receipt of written notice that an amendment or supplement is required under this paragraph.
(d) Copies of any Amendments and Supplements to the Prospectus. The Company agrees to furnish the
Representatives, without charge, during the Prospectus Delivery Period, as many copies of the Prospectus and any amendments and supplements thereto (including any documents incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference therein) as the
Representatives may reasonably request.
(e) Blue Sky Compliance. The Company shall
cooperate with the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters to qualify or register the Common Shares for sale under (or obtain exemptions from the application of) the state securities or blue sky laws or Canadian provincial securities laws
of those jurisdictions designated by the Representatives, shall comply with such laws and shall continue such qualifications, registrations and exemptions in effect so long as required under such laws for the distribution of the Common Shares. The
Company shall not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or to take any action that would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not presently qualified or where it would be subject to taxation as a
foreign corporation. The Company will advise the Representatives promptly upon receipt of any notice of the suspension of the qualification or registration of (or any such exemption relating to) the Common Shares for offering, sale or trading in any
jurisdiction or any initiation or threat of any proceeding for any such purpose, and in the event of the issuance of any order suspending such qualification,

registration or exemption, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal thereof at the earliest
possible moment.

Prospectus.

Company will not, without the prior written consent of BAS (which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of BAS), directly or indirectly, sell, offer, contract or grant any option to sell, pledge, transfer or establish an open “put
equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act, or otherwise dispose of or transfer, or announce the offering of, or file any registration statement under the Securities Act in respect of, any shares of Common
Stock, options or warrants to acquire shares of the Common Stock or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock (other than as contemplated by this Agreement with respect to the Common Shares);

(n) Investment Limitation. The Company shall not invest, or otherwise use the proceeds received by the Company from its sale of the Common Shares in such a manner as would require the
Company or any of its subsidiaries to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.
(o) No Manipulation of Price. The Company will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or result in, or that might reasonably be expected to constitute,
the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any securities of the Company.
BAS, on behalf of the several Underwriters,
may, in its sole discretion, waive in writing the performance by the Company of any one or more of the foregoing covenants or extend the time for their performance.

alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or (ii) upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary

Table of Contents
Underwriter in connection with, or relating in any manner to, the Common Stock or the offering contemplated hereby, and which is included as part of or referred
to in any loss, claim, damage, liability or action arising out of or based upon any matter covered by clause (i) or (ii) above, provided that the Company shall not be liable under this clause (iii) to the extent that a court of competent
jurisdiction shall have determined by a final judgment that such loss, claim, damage, liability or action resulted from any such acts or failures to act undertaken or omitted to be taken by such Underwriter through its bad faith or willful
misconduct and (B) the violation of any applicable laws or regulations of the Provinces of Canada in which the Common Shares have been offered; and to reimburse each Underwriter and each such controlling person for any and all expenses (including
the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by BAS) as such expenses are reasonably incurred by such Underwriter or such controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage,
liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity and reimbursement agreement shall not apply to any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense to the extent, but only to the extent, arising out of or based
upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement,
any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto); and provided, further, that with respect to any preliminary prospectus, the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any
Underwriter from whom the person asserting any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense purchased Common Shares, or any person controlling such Underwriter, if copies of the Prospectus were timely delivered to the Underwriter pursuant to Section 2
and a copy of the Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) was not sent or given by or on behalf of such Underwriter to such person, if required by law so to have been
delivered, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the Common Shares to such person, and if the Prospectus (as so amended or supplemented) would have cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense. The
indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 8(a) shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Company may otherwise have.
(b) Indemnification of the Company, its Directors and Officers. Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each

Company, or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any
litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of BAS), insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based upon any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or arises out of or is 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 (in the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under 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 Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished to the Company by the Representatives
19
Table of Contents
expressly for use therein; and to reimburse the Company, or any such director, officer, or controlling person for any and all expenses (including the fees and
disbursements of counsel chosen by such person) as such expenses are reasonably incurred by the Company, or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss,
claim, damage, liability, expense or action. The Company hereby acknowledges that the only information that the Underwriters have furnished to the Company expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus
(or any amendment or supplement thereto) are the statements set forth in the table in the first paragraph, the first, second, third and fourth sentences of the third paragraph, the last sentence of the fourth paragraph, the eleventh paragraph, the
second sentence of the twelfth paragraph, the thirteenth and fourteenth paragraphs, the first sentence of the sixteenth paragraph and the first, second, fifth and sixth sentences of the eighteenth paragraph under the caption “Underwriting”

have.
(c) Notifications and Other Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified
party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve
it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party to the extent it is not prejudiced as a proximate result of such failure. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends
to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it shall elect, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, by written notice delivered to the
indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such
action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the
defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it, singly or in combination with other indemnified parties, which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, such indemnified party or
parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to
such indemnified party of such indemnifying party’s election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 8 for
any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless and only to the extent that (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to
the next preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with local counsel), approved by the indemnifying party (BAS in the case of
Section 8(b) and, when the Underwriters are the contributing parties, Section 9), representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such action) or (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, in
20
Table of Contents
each of which cases the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party.
(d) Settlements. The indemnifying party under this Section 8 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 against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment to the extent provided in this Section
8. 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 Section 8(c) hereof, 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 30 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 and this Section 8 prior to the date of such settlement, except, with respect to clause (ii), to the extent that the indemnifying party has
provided written notice to the indemnified party that the indemnifying party disputes in good faith the unpaid balance of such fees and expenses for which reimbursement was requested. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of
the indemnified party, effect any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity was or could
have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or
proceeding.
Section 9. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 8 is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold harmless an
indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, to the extent provided in Section 8, contribute to the aggregate amount paid or payable by such indemnified
party, as incurred, as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on
the other hand, from the offering of the Common Shares pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative
benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Common Shares pursuant to this
Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Common Shares pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, and the total underwriting discount
received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth on the front cover page of the Prospectus (or, if Rule 434 under the Securities Act is used, the corresponding location on the Term Sheet), bear to the aggregate public offering price of the
Common Shares as set forth on such cover. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or the
21
Table of Contents
Underwriters, on the other hand, 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, liabilities and expenses referred
to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8(c), any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. The provisions set
forth in Section 8(c) with respect to notice of commencement of any action shall apply if a claim for contribution is to be made under this Section 9; provided, however, that no additional notice shall be required with respect to any action
for which notice has been given under Section 8(c) for purposes of indemnification.
The Company and the Underwriters agree that
it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 9.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, no
Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the underwriting commissions received by such Underwriter in connection with the Common Shares underwritten by it and distributed to the public. 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 Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to
this Section 9 are several, and not joint, in proportion to their respective underwriting commitments as set forth opposite their names in Schedule A. For purposes of this Section 9, each officer and employee of an Underwriter and each person, if
any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration
Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.
Section 10. Default of One or More of the Several Underwriters. If, on the First Closing Date or the Second Closing Date, as the case may be, any one or
more of the several Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Common Shares that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate number of Common Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but
failed or refused to purchase does not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of the Common Shares to be purchased on such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated, severally, in the proportions that the number of Firm Common Shares set forth
opposite their respective names on Schedule A bears to the aggregate number of Firm Common Shares set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as may be specified by the Representatives with the
consent of the non-defaulting Underwriters, to purchase the Common Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date. If, on the First Closing Date or the Second Closing Date, as the case
may be, any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Common Shares and the aggregate number of Common Shares with respect to which such default occurs exceeds 10% of the aggregate number of Common Shares to be purchased on
such date, and arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives and the Company for the purchase of such Common Shares are not made within 48 hours after such default, this
22
Table of Contents
Agreement shall terminate without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 4, Section 6, Section 8 and Section 9 shall at
all times be effective and shall survive such termination. In any such case either the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to postpone the First Closing Date or the Second Closing Date, as the case may be, but in no event for longer
than seven days in order that the required changes, if any, to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or any other documents or arrangements may be effected.
As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” shall be deemed to include any person substituted for a defaulting Underwriter under this Section 10. Any action taken under
this Section 10 shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.
Section 11. Termination of this Agreement. Prior to the First Closing Date this Agreement may be terminated by the Representatives by notice given to
the Company if at any time after the effectiveness of this Agreement (i) trading or quotation in any of the Company’s securities shall have been suspended or limited by the Commission or by the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc., or trading in
securities generally on either the Nasdaq National Market or the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited, or minimum or maximum prices shall have been generally established on any of such stock exchanges by the Commission or the
Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc.; (ii) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared by any of federal, New York, Delaware or California authorities; (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of national or international
hostilities or any crisis or calamity, or any change in the United States or international financial markets, or any substantial change or development involving a prospective substantial change in United States’ or international political,
financial or economic conditions, as in the judgment of the Representatives is material and adverse and makes it impracticable to market the Common Shares in the manner and on the terms described in the Prospectus or to enforce contracts for the
sale of securities; (iv) in the judgment of the Representatives there shall have occurred any Material Adverse Change; or (v) the Company shall have sustained a loss by strike, fire, flood, earthquake, accident or other calamity of such character as
in the judgment of the Representatives may interfere materially with the conduct of the business and operations of the Company regardless of whether or not such loss shall have been insured. Any termination pursuant to this Section 11 shall be
without liability on the part of (a) the Company to any Underwriter, except that the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the expenses of the Representatives and the Underwriters pursuant to Sections 4 and 6 hereof, (b) any Underwriter to the
Company, or (c) of any party hereto to any other party except that the provisions of Section 8 and Section 9 shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination.
Section 12. Representations and Indemnities to Survive Delivery. The respective indemnities, contribution agreements, representations, warranties and other certificates of
the Company, of its officers and of the several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or
on behalf of any Underwriter, the officers or employees of any Underwriter, any person controlling any Underwriter, the Company, the officers or employees of the Company, or any person controlling the Company, (ii) acceptance of the Shares and
payment for them hereunder and (iii) termination of this Agreement.

representatives of the independent public or certified public accountants for the Company, representatives of the Underwriters and representatives of counsel for the Underwriters at which the contents of the Registration Statement and the
Prospectus, and any supplements or amendments thereto, and related matters were discussed and, although such counsel is not passing upon (except to the extent specified above) and does not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or
fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, and any supplements or amendments thereto, on the basis of the foregoing, nothing has come to their attention which would lead them to believe that either the
Registration Statement or any amendments thereto, at the time the Registration Statement or such amendments became effective, 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 or that the Prospectus, as of its date or at the First Closing Date or the Second Closing Date, as the case may be, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (it being understood that such counsel need express no belief as to the financial statements, related
notes, supporting schedules and other financial and statistical data derived therefrom included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto).
In rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely (A) as to matters involving the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or the federal law of the United States, to the extent they deem proper and specified in such opinion, upon the opinion (which shall be dated the First Closing Date or
A-3
Table of Contents
the Second Closing Date, as the case may be, shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Underwriters,
shall expressly state that the Underwriters may rely on such opinion as if it were addressed to them and shall be furnished to the Representatives) of other counsel of good standing whom they believe to be reliable and who are reasonably
satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters; provided, however, that such counsel shall further state that they believe that they and the Underwriters are justified in relying upon such opinion of other counsel, and (B) as to matters
of fact, to the extent they deem proper, on certificates of responsible officers of the Company and public officials.
A-4

Exhibit B
Opinion
of Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx, General Counsel for the Company, to be delivered pursuant to Section 5(d) of the Underwriting Agreement.
References to the Prospectus in this Exhibit B include any supplements thereto at the Closing Date.
(i) The Company is duly qualified to transact business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction within the United States in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or
leasing of property or the conduct of business, except for such jurisdictions where the failure to so qualify or to be in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change.
(ii) Each significant subsidiary of the Company (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) incorporated under the
laws of any state of the United States has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, has corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its
properties and to conduct its business as described in the Prospectus and, to the knowledge of such counsel, is duly qualified to transact business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction within the United States in
which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except for such jurisdictions where the failure to so qualify or to be in good standing would not, individually or in the
aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change.
(iii) All of the issued and outstanding capital
stock of each such significant subsidiary of the Company has been duly authorized and validly issued, is fully paid and non-assessable and is owned by the Company, directly or through subsidiaries, free and clear of any security interest, mortgage,
pledge, lien, encumbrance or, to the knowledge of such counsel, any pending or threatened claim.
(iv) All of the outstanding shares of Common Stock have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and, to the of such counsel’s knowledge, have been issued in compliance with the registration
and qualification requirements of federal and state securities laws. The form of certificate used to evidence the Common Stock is in due and proper form and complies with all applicable requirements of the charter and by-laws of the Company and the
