Dear Sirs:
1. INTRODUCTORY. Corillian Corporation, an Oregon corporation

sell to the Underwriters, at the option of the Underwriters, an aggregate of not
more than additional shares ("OPTIONAL SECURITIES") of its

are herein collectively called the "OFFERED SECURITIES." As part of the offering
contemplated by this Agreement, Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation (the
"DESIGNATED UNDERWRITER") has agreed to reserve out of the Firm Securities
purchased by it under this Agreement, up to shares,
for sale to the Company's directors, officers, employees and other parties
associated with the Company (collectively, "PARTICIPANTS"), as set forth in the
Prospectus (as defined herein) under the heading "Underwriting" (the "DIRECTED
SHARE PROGRAM"). The Firm Securities to be sold by the Designated Underwriter
pursuant to the Directed Share Program (the "DIRECTED SHARES") will be sold by
the Designated Underwriter pursuant to this Agreement at the public offering
price. Any Directed Shares not orally confirmed for purchase by a Participant by
the end of the business day on which this Agreement is executed will be offered
to the public by the Underwriters as set forth in the Prospectus. The Company
hereby agrees with the several Underwriters named in Schedule A hereto
("UNDERWRITERS") as follows:
2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY. The Company represents
and warrants to, and agrees with, the several Underwriters that:
(a) A registration statement (No. 333- ) relating to the
Offered Securities, including a form of prospectus, has been filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("COMMISSION") and either (i) has been
declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933 ("ACT") and is not
proposed to be amended or (ii) is proposed to be amended by amendment or
post-effective amendment. If such registration statement ("INITIAL
REGISTRATION STATEMENT") has been declared effective, either (i) an
additional registration statement ("ADDITIONAL REGISTRATION STATEMENT")
relating to the Offered Securities may have been filed with the Commission
pursuant
1
to Rule 462(b) ("RULE 462(b)") under the Act and, if so filed, has
become effective upon filing pursuant to such Rule and the Offered
Securities all have been duly registered under the Act pursuant to the
initial registration statement and, if applicable, the additional
registration statement or (ii) such an additional registration statement is
proposed to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 462(b) and will
become effective upon filing pursuant to such Rule and upon such filing the
Offered Securities will all have been duly registered under the Act
pursuant to the initial registration statement and such additional
registration statement. If the Company does not propose to amend the
initial registration statement or if an additional registration statement
has been filed and the Company does not propose to amend it, and if any
post-effective amendment to either such registration statement has been
filed with the Commission prior to the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, the most recent amendment (if any) to each such registration
statement has been declared effective by the Commission or has become
effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(c) ("RULE 462(c)") under the Act
or, in the case of the additional registration statement, Rule 462(b). For
purposes of this Agreement, "EFFECTIVE TIME" with respect to the initial
registration statement or, if filed prior to the execution and delivery of
this Agreement, the additional registration statement means (i) if the
Company has advised the Representatives that it does not propose to amend
such registration statement, the date and time as of which such
registration statement, or the most recent post-effective amendment thereto
(if any) filed prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, was
declared effective by the Commission or has become effective upon filing
pursuant to Rule 462(c), or (ii) if the Company has advised the
Representatives that it proposes to file an amendment or post-effective
amendment to such registration statement, the date and time as of which
such registration statement, as amended by such amendment or post-effective
amendment, as the case may be, is declared effective by the Commission. If
an additional registration statement has not been filed prior to the
execution and delivery of this Agreement but the Company has advised the
Representatives that it proposes to file one, "EFFECTIVE TIME" with respect
to such additional registration statement means the date and time as of
which such registration statement is filed and becomes effective pursuant
to Rule 462(b). "EFFECTIVE DATE" with respect to the initial registration
statement or the additional registration statement (if any) means the date
of the Effective Time thereof. The initial registration statement, as
amended at its Effective Time, including all information contained in the
additional registration statement (if any) and deemed to be a part of the
initial registration statement as of the Effective Time of the additional
registration statement pursuant to the General Instructions of the Form on
which it is filed and including all information (if any) deemed to be a
part of the initial registration statement as of its Effective Time
pursuant to Rule 430A(b) ("RULE 430A(b)") under the Act, is hereinafter
referred to as the "INITIAL REGISTRATION STATEMENT". The additional
registration statement, as amended at its Effective Time, including the
contents of the initial registration statement incorporated by reference
therein and including all information (if any) deemed to be a part of the
additional registration statement as of its Effective Time pursuant to Rule
430A(b), is hereinafter referred to as the "ADDITIONAL REGISTRATION
STATEMENT". The Initial Registration Statement and the Additional
Registration Statement are herein referred to collectively as the
"REGISTRATION STATEMENTS" and individually as a "REGISTRATION STATEMENT."
The form of prospectus relating to the Offered Securities, as first filed
with the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 424(b)
("RULE 424(b)") under the Act or (if no such filing is required) as
included in a Registration Statement, is hereinafter referred to as the
"PROSPECTUS". No document has been or will be prepared or distributed in

Date of the Initial Registration Statement, the Initial Registration
Statement conformed in all respects to the requirements of the Act and the
2
rules and regulations of the Commission ("RULES AND REGULATIONS") and did
not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, (ii) on the Effective Date of the
Additional Registration Statement (if any), each Registration Statement

and the Rules and Regulations and did not include, or will not include, any
untrue statement of a material fact and did not omit, or will not omit, to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading and (iii) on the date of this
Agreement, the Initial Registration Statement and, if the Effective Time of
the Additional Registration Statement is prior to the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, the Additional Registration Statement each
conforms, and at the time of filing of the Prospectus pursuant to Rule
424(b) or (if no such filing is required) at the Effective Date of the
Additional Registration Statement in which the Prospectus is included, each
Registration Statement and the Prospectus will conform, in all respects to
the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations, and neither of
such documents includes, or will include, any untrue statement of a
material fact or omits, or will omit, to state any material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading. If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement is

Effective Date of the Initial Registration Statement, the Initial
Registration Statement and the Prospectus will conform in all respects to
the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations, neither of such

3. PURCHASE, SALE AND DELIVERY OF OFFERED SECURITIES. On the basis of the
representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, but subject to the
terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company agrees to sell to the
Underwriters, and the Underwriters agree, severally and not jointly, to purchase
from the Company, at a purchase price of $ per share, the
respective numbers of shares of Firm Securities set forth opposite the names of
the Underwriters in Schedule A hereto.
The Company will deliver the Firm Securities to the Representatives for the
accounts of the Underwriters, against payment of the purchase price in Federal
(same day) funds by official bank check or checks or wire transfer to an account
at a bank acceptable to Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation ("CSFBC") drawn
to the order of the Company at the office of Xxxxxxx Coie LLP, at 10:00 A.M.,
New York time, on , or at such other time not later than
seven full business days thereafter as CSFBC and the Company determine, such
time being herein referred to as the "FIRST CLOSING DATE". For purposes of Rule
15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the First Closing Date (if
later than the otherwise applicable settlement date) shall be the settlement
date for payment of funds and delivery of securities for all the Offered
Securities sold pursuant to the offering. The certificates for the Firm
Securities so to be delivered will be in definitive form, in such denominations
and registered in such names as CSFBC requests and will be made available for
checking and packaging at the above office of Xxxxxxx Coie LLP at least 24 hours

agrees to sell to the Underwriters the number of shares of Optional Securities
specified in such notice and the Underwriters agree, severally and not jointly,
to purchase such Optional Securities. Such Optional Securities shall be
purchased for the account of each Underwriter in the same proportion as the

bears to the total number of shares of Firm Securities (subject to adjustment by
CSFBC to eliminate fractions) and may be purchased by the Underwriters only for
the purpose of covering over-allotments made in connection with the sale of the
Firm Securities. No Optional Securities shall be sold or delivered unless the
Firm Securities previously
6
have been, or simultaneously are, sold and delivered. The right to purchase
the Optional Securities or any portion thereof may be exercised from time to
time and to the extent not previously exercised may be surrendered and
terminated at any time upon notice by CSFBC to the Company.
Each time for the delivery of and payment for the Optional Securities,
being herein referred to as an "OPTIONAL CLOSING DATE", which may be the First
Closing Date (the First Closing Date and each Optional Closing Date, if any,
being sometimes referred to as a "CLOSING DATE"), shall be determined by CSFBC
but shall be not later than five full business days after written notice of
election to purchase Optional Securities is given. The Company will deliver the
Optional Securities being purchased on each Optional Closing Date to the
Representatives for the accounts of the several Underwriters, against payment of
the purchase price therefor in Federal (same day) funds by official bank check
or checks or wire transfer to an account at a bank acceptable to CSFBC drawn to
the order of the Company, at the office of Xxxxxxx Coie LLP. The certificates
for the Optional Securities being purchased on each Optional Closing Date will
be in definitive form, in such denominations and registered in such names as
CSFBC requests upon reasonable notice prior to such Optional Closing Date and
will be made available for checking and packaging at the above office of Xxxxxxx
Coie LLP at a reasonable time in advance of such Optional Closing Date.

Underwriters that:
(a) If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement is
prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company will

subparagraph (1) (or, if applicable and if consented to by CSFBC,
subparagraph (4)) of Rule 424(b) not later than the earlier of (A) the
second business day following the execution and delivery of this Agreement
or (B) the fifteenth business day after the Effective Date of the Initial
Registration Statement.
The Company will advise CSFBC promptly of any such filing pursuant to Rule

registration statement is necessary to register a portion of the Offered
Securities under the Act but the Effective Time thereof has not occurred as
of such execution and delivery, the Company will file the additional
registration statement or, if filed, will file a post-effective amendment
thereto with the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 462(b)
on or prior to 10:00 P.M., New York time, on the date of this Agreement or,
if earlier, on or prior to the time the Prospectus is printed and
distributed to any Underwriter, or will make such filing at such later date
as shall have been consented to by CSFBC.
(b) The Company will advise CSFBC promptly of any proposal to amend

Company will also advise CSFBC promptly of the effectiveness of each
Registration Statement (if its Effective Time is subsequent to the
execution and delivery of this Agreement) and of any amendment or
supplementation of a Registration Statement or the Prospectus and of the
institution by the Commission of any stop order proceedings in respect of a
Registration Statement and will use its best efforts to prevent the
issuance of any such stop order and to obtain as soon as possible its
lifting, if issued.
7
(c) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Offered
Securities is required to be delivered under the Act in connection with
sales by any Underwriter or dealer, any event occurs as a result of which
the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary
to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, or if it is necessary at any time to
amend the Prospectus to comply with the Act, the Company will promptly
notify CSFBC of such event and will promptly prepare and file with the
Commission, at its own expense, an amendment or supplement which will
correct such statement or omission or an amendment which will effect such
compliance. Neither CSFBC's consent to, nor the Underwriters' delivery of,
any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of the
conditions set forth in Section 6.
(d) As soon as practicable, but not later than the Availability Date
(as defined below), the Company will make generally available to its
securityholders an earnings statement covering a period of at least 12

Statement) which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act.
For the purpose of the preceding sentence, "AVAILABILITY DATE" means the

quarter that includes such Effective Date, except that, if such fourth
fiscal quarter is the last quarter of the Company's fiscal year,
"AVAILABILITY DATE" means the 90th day after the end of such fourth fiscal
quarter.

prospectus relating to the Offered Securities is required to be delivered
under the Act in connection with sales by any Underwriter or dealer, the
Prospectus and all amendments and supplements to such documents, in each
case in such quantities as CSFBC requests. The Prospectus shall be so
furnished on or prior to 3:00 P.M., New York time, on the business day
following the later of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the
Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement. All other documents
shall be so furnished as soon as available. The Company will pay the
expenses of printing and distributing to the Underwriters all such
documents.
(f) The Company will arrange for the qualification of the Offered
Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as CSFBC
designates and will continue such qualifications in effect so long as
required for the distribution.
(g) During the period of five years hereafter, the Company will
furnish to the Representatives and, upon request, to each of the other
Underwriters, as soon as practicable after the end of each fiscal year, a
copy of its annual report to shareholders for such year; and the Company
will furnish to the Representatives (i) as soon as available, a copy of
each report and any definitive proxy statement of the Company filed with
the Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or mailed to
shareholders, and (ii) from time to time, such other information concerning
the Company as CSFBC may reasonably request.
(h) The Company will pay all expenses incident to the performance of
its obligations under this Agreement, for any filing fees and other
expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in
connection with qualification of the Offered Securities for sale under the
laws of such jurisdictions as CSFBC designates and the printing of
memoranda relating thereto, for the
8
filing fee incident to, and the reasonable fees and disbursements of
counsel to the Underwriters in connection with, the review by the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. of the Offered
Securities, for any travel expenses of the Company's officers and
employees and any other expenses of the Company in connection with
attending or hosting meetings with prospective purchasers of the
Offered Securities and for expenses incurred in distributing
preliminary prospectuses and the Prospectus (including any amendments and
supplements thereto) to the Underwriters.
(i) For a period of 180 days after the date of the initial public
offering of the Offered Securities, the Company will not offer, sell,
contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly,
or file with the Commission a registration statement under the Act relating
to, any additional shares of its Securities or securities convertible into
or exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of its Securities, or
publicly disclose the intention to make any such offer, sale, pledge,
disposition or filing, without the prior written consent of CSFBC except
issuances of Securities pursuant to the conversion or exchange of
convertible or exchangeable securities or the exercise of warrants or
options, in each case outstanding on the date hereof, grants of employee
stock options pursuant to the terms of a plan in effect on the date hereof,
issuances of Securities pursuant to the exercise of such options or the
exercise of any other employee stock options outstanding on the date
hereof.
(j) In connection with the Directed Share Program, the Company will
ensure that the Directed Shares will be restricted to the extent required
by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD") or the
NASD rules from sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or hypothecation for a
period of three months following the date of the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement. The Designated Underwriter will notify the Company
as to which Participants will need to be so restricted. The Company will
direct the transfer agent to place stop transfer restrictions upon such
securities for such period of time.
(k) The Company will pay all fees and disbursements of counsel
incurred by the Underwriters in connection with the Directed Shares Program
and stamp duties, similar taxes or duties or other taxes, if any, incurred
by the underwriters in connection with the Directed Share Program.
Furthermore, the Company covenants with the Underwriters that the
Company will comply with all applicable securities and other applicable
laws, rules and regulations in each foreign jurisdiction in which the
Directed Shares are offered in connection with the Directed Share Program.

the conduct of its business requires such qualification;

nonassessable and conform to the description thereof contained in the

Company, except such as have been obtained and made under the Act and
such as may be required under state securities laws;
(vi) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
and the issuance and sale of the Offered Securities will not result in
a breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or
constitute a default under, any statute, any rule, regulation or order
of any governmental agency or body or any court having jurisdiction
over the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or any of their
properties, or any agreement or instrument to which the Company or any

(vii) The Initial Registration Statement was declared effective
under the Act as of the date and time specified in such opinion, the

specified in such opinion, the Prospectus either was filed with the
Commission pursuant to the subparagraph of Rule 424(b) specified in
such opinion on the date specified therein or was included in the
Initial Registration Statement or the Additional Registration
Statement (as the case may be), and, to the best of the knowledge of
such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of a
Registration Statement or any part thereof has been issued and no
proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or
contemplated under the Act, and each Registration Statement and the
Prospectus, and each amendment or supplement thereto, as of their
respective effective or issue dates, complied as to form in all
material respects with the requirements of the Act and the Rules and
Regulations; such counsel have no reason to believe that any part of a
Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, as of its effective
date or as of such Closing Date, contained any untrue statement of a
material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading or that the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement
thereto, as of its issue date or as of such Closing Date, contained
any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading; the descriptions in the Registration Statements and
Prospectus of statutes, legal and governmental proceedings and
contracts and other documents are accurate and fairly present the
information required to be shown; and such counsel do not know of any
legal or governmental proceedings required to be describedin a
Registration Statement or the Prospectus which are not described as
required or of any contracts or documents of a character required to
be described in a Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to be
filed as exhibits to a Registration Statement which are not described
and filed as required; it being understood that such counsel need
express no opinion as to the financial statements or other financial
data contained in the Registration Statements or the Prospectus; and
13
(viii) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by the Company.
(e) The Representatives shall have received from Stoel Rives LLP,
counsel for the Underwriters, such opinion or opinions, dated such Closing

Statements, the Prospectus and other related matters as the Representatives
may require, and the Company shall have furnished to such counsel such
documents as they request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon
such matters.
(f) The Representatives shall have received a certificate, dated such
Closing Date, of the President or any Vice President and a principal
financial or accounting officer of the Company in which such officers, to
the best of their knowledge after reasonable investigation, shall state

contemplated by the Prospectus or as described in such certificate.
(g) The Representatives shall have received a letter, dated such
Closing Date, of KPMG LLP which meets the requirements of subsection (a)

opinions, certificates, letters and documents as the Representatives reasonably
request. CSFBC may in its sole discretion waive on behalf of the Underwriters

whether in respect of an Optional Closing Date or otherwise.
7. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION. (a) The Company will indemnify and
hold harmless each Underwriter, its partners, directors and officers and each
person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15
of the Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or
several, to which such Underwriter may become subject, under the Act or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement,
the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any related
preliminary prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse
each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however,
that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such
loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement in or
14
omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any
Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein, it
being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any
Underwriter consists of the information described as such in subsection (b)
below.
The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Designated
Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls the Designated Underwriter
within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of
the Exchange Act (the "DESIGNATED ENTITIES"), from and against any and all
losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or
investigating any such action or claim) (i) caused by any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any material prepared
by or with the consent of the Company for distribution to Participants in
connection with the Directed Share Program or caused by any omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) caused by the
failure of any Participant to pay for and accept delivery of Directed Shares
that the Participant agreed to purchase; or (iii) related to, arising out of, or
in connection with the Directed Share Program, other than losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or expenses relating thereto) that are finally
judicially determined to have resulted from the bad faith or gross negligence of
the Designated Entities.
(b) Each Underwriter will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, its directors and officers and each person, if any who
controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act, against any
losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become subject,
under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
any Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, or any related preliminary prospectus, or arise out of or are based
upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made
in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use
therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by
the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred, it being understood
and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists
of the following information in the Prospectus furnished on behalf of each
Underwriter: the concession and reallowance figures appearing in the
paragraph under the caption "Underwriting" and the information contained in the
and paragraphs under the caption "Underwriting."
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under
subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party 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 otherwise than
under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against
any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to
the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such
indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified
party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the
indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the
defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified
party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred
by
15
such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than
reasonable costs of investigation. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to
the contrary, if indemnity may be sought pursuant to the last paragraph in
Section 7 (a) hereof in respect of such action or proceeding, then in addition
to such separate firm for the indemnified parties, the indemnifying party shall
be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of not more than one separate
firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Designated Underwriter for the
defense of any losses, claims, damages and liabilities arising out of the
Directed Share Program, and all persons, if any, who control the Designated
Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act of Section 20 of
the Exchange Act. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written
consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or
threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have
been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified
party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such
indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter
of such action and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of,
fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an indemnified party.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or
insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b)
above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (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 from the offering of the Securities
or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by
applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the
relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of
the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with
the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The
relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters
on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net
proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company
bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the
Underwriters. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Company or the Underwriters and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified
party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in
the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal
or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection
with investigating or defending anyaction or claim which is the subject of this
subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no
Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount
by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and
distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any
damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of
such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No
person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations in
this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective
underwriting obligations and not joint.
(e) The obligations of the Company under this Section shall be in addition
to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the
same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter
within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations of the Underwriters under
this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the respective
Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and
conditions, to each director of the Company, to each
16
officer of the Company who has signed a Registration Statement and to each
person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act.
8. DEFAULT OF UNDERWRITERS. If any Underwriter or Underwriters default in
their obligations to purchase Offered Securities hereunder on either the First
or any Optional Closing Date and the aggregate number of shares of Offered
Securities that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to
purchase does not exceed 10% of the total number of shares of Offered Securities
that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date, CSFBC may
make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Offered
Securities by other persons, including any of the Underwriters, but if no such
arrangements are made by such Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriters
shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments
hereunder, to purchase the Offered Securities that such defaulting Underwriters
agreed but failed to purchase on such Closing Date. If any Underwriter or
Underwriters so default and the aggregate number of shares of Offered Securities
with respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds 10% of the total
number of shares of Offered Securities that the Underwriters are obligated to
purchase on such Closing Date and arrangements satisfactory to CSFBC and the
Company for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons are not
made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without
liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except
as provided in Section 9 (provided that if such default occurs with respect to
Optional Securities after the First Closing Date, this Agreement will not
terminate as to the Firm Securities or any Optional Securities purchased prior
to such termination). As used in this Agreement, the term "Underwriter" includes
any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section. Nothing herein
will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.
9. SURVIVAL OF CERTAIN REPRESENTATIONS AND OBLIGATIONS. The respective
indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the
Company or its officers and of the several Underwriters set forth in or made
pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of
any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf
of any Underwriter, the Company or any of their respective representatives,
officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of
and payment for the Offered Securities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant
to Section 8 or if for any reason the purchase of the Offered Securities by the
Underwriters is not consummated, the Company shall remain responsible for the
expenses to be paid or reimbursed by it pursuant to Section 5 and the respective
obligations of the Company and the Underwriters pursuant to Section 7 shall
remain in effect, and if any Offered Securities have been purchased hereunder
the representations and warranties in Section 2 and all obligations under
Section 5 shall also remain in effect. If the purchase of the Offered Securities
by the Underwriters is not consummated for any reason other than solely because
of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8 or the occurrence of
any event specified in clause (iii), (iv) or (v) of Section 6(c), the Company
will reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees
and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the
offering of the Offered Securities.
10. NOTICES. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent
to the Underwriters, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to

delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to such Underwriter.
17
11. SUCCESSORS. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and
directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 7, and no other person
will have any right or obligation hereunder.
12. REPRESENTATION OF UNDERWRITERS. The Representatives will act for the
several Underwriters in connection with this financing, and any action under
this Agreement taken by the Representatives jointly or by CSFBC will be binding
upon all the Underwriters.
13. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.
14. APPLICABLE LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES
OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS.
The Company hereby submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal
and state courts in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York in any suit
or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby.
If the foregoing is in accordance with the Representatives' understanding
of our agreement, kindly sign and return to the Company one of the counterparts
hereof, whereupon it will become a binding agreement between the Company and the
several Underwriters in accordance with its terms.
