Ladies and Gentlemen:

Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Company”), proposes, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, to issue and sell 1,548,167 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Common Stock”), directly to certain investors (collectively, the “Investors”). The Company desires to engage you as its placement agents (the “Placement Agents”) in connection with such issuance and sale. The Shares are more fully described in the Registration Statement (as hereinafter defined).

The Company hereby confirms that the Placement Agents, in connection with their duties in such capacity, are authorized to distribute or cause to be distributed the Basic Prospectus and the Prospectus (each as hereinafter defined) (as from time to time amended or supplemented if the Company furnishes amendments or supplements thereto to the Placement Agents).

1. Agreement to Act as Placement Agents, Delivery and Payment. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements contained in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, this Agreement:

(a) The Placement Agents agree to act as the Company’s exclusive placement agents in connection with the issuance and sale, on a reasonable efforts basis, by the Company of the Shares to the Investors. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Placement Agents’ engagement hereunder is not an agreement by the Placement Agents or any of their affiliates to underwrite or purchase any securities or otherwise provide any financing. As compensation for their services hereunder, the Company agrees to pay on the Closing Date (as defined below) to the Placement Agents by wire transfer of immediately available funds 5.0% of the proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Shares.

(b) Delivery of the Shares shall be made at a closing (the “Closing”) at the offices of Ballard Spahr LLP at 10:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, on the Closing Date to take place on the third or fourth business day (as permitted under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”)), as mutually agreed by the parties, after the determination of the sales price of the Shares (such time and date of payment and delivery being herein called the “Closing Date”). All actions taken at the Closing shall be deemed to have occurred simultaneously.

(c) Payment of the purchase price for the Shares shall be made by the Investors directly to the Company by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the Company, upon delivery of the Shares through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company, to the Investors, and shall be registered in such name or names and shall be in such denominations, as the Investors may request at least one business day before the Closing Date.

(d) The several purchases of the Shares by the Investors shall be evidenced by the execution of one or more purchase agreements each substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Purchase Agreement” and, collectively, the “Purchase Agreements”).

(e) Prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which this Agreement is terminated and (ii) the Closing Date, the Company shall not, without the prior consent of the Placement Agents, solicit or accept offers to purchase Shares (other than pursuant to (i) the exercise of options or warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock that are outstanding at the date hereof, and, upon the closing of the merger of First Keystone Financial Inc. with and into the Company (the “Merger”), pursuant to any equity incentive plans of First Keystone Financial, Inc. in effect at the closing date of the Merger, (ii) the issuance by the Company of shares of Common Stock in connection with the Merger and (iii) the Company’s Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan, provided however that the Company shall not grant any waivers of the maximum annual investment limitation) otherwise than through the Placement Agents.

2. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to each Placement Agent as of the date hereof, and as of the Closing Date, as follows:

(a)    Compliance with Registration Requirements. The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-159588) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), in respect of the Company’s Common Stock (including the Shares) not earlier than three years prior to the date hereof; such registration statement, and any post-effective amendment thereto, has been declared effective by the Commission; and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement or any part thereof has been issued and no proceeding for that purpose has been initiated or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened by the Commission (the base prospectus filed as part of such registration statement, in the form in which it has most recently been filed with the Commission on or prior to the date of this Agreement, is hereinafter called the “Basic Prospectus”; the various parts of such registration statement, including all exhibits thereto and any prospectus supplement relating to the Shares that is filed with the Commission and deemed by virtue of Rule 430B to be part of such registration statement, each as amended at the time such part of the registration statement became effective with respect to the Placement Agents (the “Effective Date”), are hereinafter collectively called the “Registration Statement”; the prospectus supplement specifically relating to the Shares prepared and filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the 1933 Act is hereinafter called the “Prospectus Supplement”; the Basic Prospectus, as amended and supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, is hereinafter called the “Prospectus”; any reference herein to the Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act; any reference to any amendment or supplement to the Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, any prospectus supplement relating to the Shares filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the 1933 Act and any documents filed under the 1934 Act, and incorporated therein, in each case after the date of the Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus, as the case may be; any reference to any amendment to the Registration Statement shall be deemed to refer to and include any annual report of the Company filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the 1934 Act after the effective date of the Registration Statement that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement; and any “issuer free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 433 under the 1933 Act relating to the Shares is hereinafter called an “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”).

On the Effective Date, the Registration Statement complied, and on the date of the Prospectus, the date any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement becomes effective, the date any supplement or amendment to the Prospectus is filed with the Commission and the Closing Date, the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (and any amendment thereof or supplement thereto) will comply, in all material respects, with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the published rules and regulations thereunder (the “Rules”) adopted by the Commission and the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations of

3

the Commission thereunder. The Registration Statement did not, as of the Effective Date, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading; and on the Effective Date and the other dates referred to in the second sentence of this paragraph 2(a) above, neither the Registration Statement nor any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, contained or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or will omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading.

No order preventing or suspending the use of the Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus has been issued by the Commission, and the Basic Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement, at the time of filing thereof, conformed in all material respects to the requirements of the 1933 Act and the Rules and did 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.

For the purposes of this Agreement, the “Applicable Time” means, with respect to any Shares, the time of sale of such Shares pursuant to this Agreement; the Basic Prospectus and the applicable Issuer Free Writing Prospectus(es) issued at or prior to such Applicable Time, taken together (collectively, and, with respect to any Shares, together with the public offering price of such Shares and the aggregate number of Shares up to which the Company will offer, the “General Disclosure Package”) as of each Applicable Time and the Closing Date, did not and will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and each applicable Issuer Free Writing Prospectus will not conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus and each such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, as supplemented by and taken together with the General Disclosure Package as of such Applicable Time, will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(b)    Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

(ii)        The Company shall promptly advise the Placement Agents in writing, during any period when the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus would be required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of the Shares by an underwriter or dealer in connection with the offering contemplated by this Agreement, (A) when any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement shall have become effective or any supplement to the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus shall have been filed, (B) of any request by the Commission for any amendment of the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or for any additional information, (C) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of the General Disclosure Package or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose and (D) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. The Company shall not, during such period as the Prospectus (or if, at any time when the General Disclosure Package is being used

16

to solicit offers to buy the Shares at a time when the Prospectus is not yet available to Investors) would be required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of the Shares in connection with the offering contemplated by this Agreement, file any amendment to the Registration Statement or supplement to the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or any document incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement unless the Company has furnished the Placement Agents a copy for its review prior to filing and shall not file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which the Placement Agents reasonably object. The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal thereof.

(iii)        If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Shares is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act and the Rules, any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include any 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 shall be necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with the 1933 Act or the Rules, the Company promptly shall prepare and file with the Commission, subject to the second sentence of paragraph (ii) of this Section 4(a), an amendment or supplement which shall correct such statement or omission or an amendment which shall effect such compliance.

(iv)        The Company shall make generally available to its security holders and to the Placement Agents as soon as practicable, an earning statement which shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act or Rule 158 of the Rules.

(v)        The Company shall furnish to the Placement Agents and counsel for the Placement Agents, without charge, a signed copy of the Registration Statement (including all exhibits thereto and amendments thereof) and, so long as delivery of a prospectus by a placement agent or dealer may be required by the 1933 Act or the Rules, as many copies of the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and any amendments thereof and supplements thereto as the Placement Agents may reasonably request. If applicable, the copies of the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and Prospectus and each amendment and supplement thereto furnished to the Placement Agents will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.

(vi)        The Company shall cooperate with the Placement Agents and their counsel in endeavoring to qualify the Shares for offer and sale in connection with the offering under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Placement Agents may designate and shall maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Shares; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith, as a condition thereof, to qualify as a foreign

17

corporation or to execute a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction or subject itself to taxation as doing business in any jurisdiction.

(vii)        The Company, during the period when the Prospectus is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act and the Rules or the 1934 Act, will file all reports and other documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15 of the 1934 Act within the time periods required by the 1934 Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

(viii)        On or before the Closing Date, the Company shall make all filings required under applicable securities laws and by NASDAQ.

(ix)        Prior to the earlier of the termination of this Agreement or the Closing Date, the Company will issue no press release or other communications directly or indirectly and hold no press conference with respect to the Company, its condition, financial or otherwise, or its earnings, business affairs or business prospects, or the offering of the Shares without the prior written consent of the Placement Agents, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless in the judgment of the Company and its counsel, and after notification to the Placement Agents, such press release or communication is required by law.

(x)        The Company will apply the net proceeds from the offering of the Shares in the manner set forth under “Use of Proceeds” in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(xi)        For a period of 90 days after the date of the Prospectus, the Company will not (i) offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement under the 1933 Act relating to, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock or publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge, disposition or filing, or (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock or any such other securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, other than (a) the Shares to be sold hereunder, (b) the issuance and sale by the Company of shares of Common Stock pursuant to any equity incentive plan of the Company in effect at the Closing Date as described or contemplated in the Prospectus and, upon the closing of the Merger, the registration, issuance and sale by the Company of shares of Common Stock pursuant to any equity incentive plans of First Keystone Financial, Inc. in effect at the closing date of the Merger, (c) the issuance and sale of the Company of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Company’s Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan, provided however that the Company shall not grant any

18

waivers of the maximum annual investment limitation, (d) the issuance by the Company of shares of Common Stock to the directors of the Company as compensation for their service as directors, consistent with past practice; and (e) the issuance by the Company of shares of Common Stock in connection with the Merger. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (1) during the last 17 days of the 90-day restricted period, the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs; or (2) prior to the expiration of the 90-day restricted period, the Company announces that it will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the 90-day period, the restrictions imposed by this Agreement shall continue to apply until the expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event. The Company will provide Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and each individual subject to the lock-up letters described in Section 3(h) with prior notice of any such announcement that gives rise to an extension of the restricted period.

(b) The Company agrees to pay, or reimburse if paid by the Placement Agents, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the following costs and expenses: (i) the preparation, printing, filing and distribution of the Registration Statement including all exhibits thereto, the General Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, all amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and any document incorporated by reference therein, and the printing, filing and distribution of this Agreement; (ii) the registration or qualification of the Shares for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of the various jurisdictions referred to in Section 4(a)(vi), including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Placement Agents in connection with such registration and qualification and the preparation, printing, distribution and shipment of preliminary and supplementary Blue Sky memoranda; (iii) the furnishing (including costs of shipping and mailing) to the Placement Agents of copies of the General Disclosure Package, the Prospectus and all amendments or supplements to the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, and of the several documents required by this Section 4 to be so furnished, as may be reasonably requested for use in connection with the offering and sale of the Shares; (iv) the filing fees of FINRA in connection with its review of the terms of the offering and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Placement Agents in connection with such review; (v) inclusion of the Shares for listing on NASDAQ and (vi) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred after April 22, 2010 and incident to the performance of the obligations of the Placement Agents under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of their legal counsel; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be obligated to reimburse the Placement Agents for more than $75,000 in aggregate legal counsel fees.

5. Indemnification.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Placement Agent and each person, if any, who controls any Placement Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act and each director, officer,

19

employee, partner, agent or affiliate of each Placement Agent against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities, joint or several (including any reasonable investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted), to which they, or any of them, may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or other Federal or state law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon any breach of the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein and any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package, the Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the 1933 Act, or arise out of or are based upon any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

(b) Each Placement Agent, severally but not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, each director of the Company, and each officer of the Company who signs the Registration Statement, against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including any reasonable investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted) to which they, or any of them, may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or other Federal or state law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Placement Agent expressly for use therein (it being understood that no such information has been provided by the Placement Agents); provided however, that the obligation of each Placement Agent to indemnify the Company (including any controlling person, director or officer thereof) shall be limited to the amount of the placement agent fees actually received by such Placement Agent pursuant to this Agreement. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Placement Agents may otherwise have.

(c) Any party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Section 5 will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or parties under this Section 5, notify each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, suit or proceeding, enclosing a copy of all papers

20

served. No indemnification provided for in Section 5(a) or 5(b) shall be available to any party who shall fail to give notice as provided in this Section 5(c) if the party to whom notice was not given was unaware of the proceeding to which such notice would have related but the omission to so notify such indemnifying party of any such action, suit or proceeding shall only relieve it from liability to the extent that it was prejudiced by the failure to give such notice and shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise than under this Section 5. In case any such action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and the approval by the indemnified party of such counsel, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses, except as provided below and except for the reasonable costs of investigation subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. The indemnified party shall have the right to employ its counsel in any such action, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the employment of counsel by such indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying parties, (ii) the indemnified party shall have been advised by counsel in writing that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying parties shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (iii) the indemnifying parties shall not have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after notice of the commencement thereof, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of one counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying parties. An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, suit, and proceeding or claim effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

6. Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in Section 5(a) or 5(b) is due in accordance with its terms but for any reason is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect to any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses (including any investigation, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claims asserted) incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agents on the other hand from the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement or, if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agents on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The Company and the Placement Agents agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined by pro

21

rata allocation (even if the Placement Agents were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, no Placement Agent shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount of placement agent fees actually received by such Placement Agent pursuant to this Agreement. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 6, each person, if any, who controls a Placement Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act and each director, officer, employee, partner, agent or affiliate of each Placement Agent shall have the same rights to contribution as such Placement Agent, 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 Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties under this Section 6, notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought shall not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have hereunder or otherwise than under this Section 6. No party shall be liable for contribution with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or claim settled without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Placement Agents’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 6 are several in proportion to the respective amounts of placement agent fees each has actually received pursuant to this Agreement and not joint.

7. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing Date by the Placement Agents by notifying the Company at any time at or before the Closing Date in the absolute discretion of the Placement agent if: (i) there has occurred any material adverse change in the securities markets or any event, act or occurrence that has materially disrupted, or in the opinion of the Placement Agents, will in the future materially disrupt, the securities markets, or there shall be such a material adverse change in general financial, political or economic conditions or the effect of international conditions on the financial markets in the United States is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Placement agent, inadvisable or impracticable to market the Shares or enforce contracts for the sale of the Shares; (ii) there has occurred any outbreak or material escalation of hostilities or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Placement agent, inadvisable or impracticable to market the Shares or enforce contracts for the sale of the Shares; (iii) trading in the Shares or any securities of the Company has been suspended or materially limited by the Commission or trading generally on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the American Stock Exchange, Inc. or the Nasdaq Stock Market has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum ranges for prices for

22

securities shall have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities have been required, by any of said exchanges or by such system or by order of the Commission, FINRA, or any other governmental or regulatory authority; or (iv) a banking moratorium has been declared by any state or Federal authority; or (v) in the judgment of the Placement Agents, there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, any material adverse change in the assets, properties, condition, financial or otherwise, or in the results of operations, business affairs or business prospects of the Company considered as a whole, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business. Subject to the provisions of Section 8(a), if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 7, no Placement Agent shall be under any liability to the Company.

8. Miscellaneous.

(a) The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company, and the Placement Agents, as set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of any Placement Agent or the Company or any of their respective officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in Sections 5 and 6 hereof, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Shares. In addition, the provisions of Sections 4(b), 5, 6, 7 and 8 shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

(b) This Agreement has been and is made for the benefit of the Placement Agents, the Company and their respective successors and assigns, and, to the extent expressed herein, for the benefit of persons controlling any of the Placement Agent, or the Company, and directors and officers of the Company, and their respective successors and assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. The term “successors and assigns” shall not include any Investor merely because of such purchase.

(c) All notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing and mailed or delivered or by telephone or telegraph if subsequently confirmed in writing, if to the Placement agent:
