Section 1. Agreement to Act as Placement Agent.

(a) On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements of the Company herein contained, and subject to all the terms and conditions of this agreement (this “Agreement”), the Placement Agent shall be the exclusive Placement Agent in connection with the offering and sale by the Company of the Offered Securities pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-251061) (the “Registration Statement”), with the terms of such offering (the “Offering”), to be subject to market conditions and negotiations between the Company and the prospective Investors. The Placement Agent will act on a reasonable best efforts basis and the Company agrees and acknowledges that there is no guarantee of the successful placement of the Offered Securities, or any portion thereof, in the prospective Offering. Under no circumstances will the Placement Agent or any of its Affiliates (as defined below) be obligated to underwrite or purchase any of the Offered Securities for their own accounts or otherwise provide any financing. The Placement Agent shall act solely as the Company’s agent and not as principal. The Placement Agent shall have no authority to bind the Company with respect to any prospective offer to purchase any Offered Securities and the Company shall have the sole right to accept offers to purchase the Offered Securities and may reject any such offer, in whole or in part. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of, the Offered Securities shall be made at a closing (the “Closing” and such date of payment and delivery the “Closing Date”), as set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, among the Company and the Investors (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”). As compensation for services rendered, and provided that any of the Offered Securities are sold to the Investors in the Offering, on the Closing Date the Company shall pay to the Placement Agent an amount in the aggregate equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Offered Securities (the “Placement Fee”). Subject to compliance with Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) Rule 5110, the Company also agrees to reimburse the Placement Agent for the expenses set forth in Section 6 below.

(b) The term of the exclusive engagement of the Placement Agent will be until the earlier of (i) the completion of the Offering and (ii) the termination of the Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to the terms set forth therein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions concerning confidentiality, indemnification and contribution contained herein and the Company’s obligations contained in the indemnification provisions will survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement, and the Company’s obligation to pay fees

actually earned and payable and to reimburse expenses actually incurred and reimbursable pursuant to Section 6 hereof and which are permitted to be reimbursed under FINRA Rule 5110, will survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit the ability of the Placement Agent or its Affiliates to pursue, investigate, analyze, invest in, or engage in investment banking, financial advisory or any other business relationship with Persons (as defined below) other than the Company. As used herein (i) “Person” means an individual or corporation, partnership, trust, incorporated or unincorporated association, joint venture, limited liability company, joint stock company, government (or an agency or subdivision thereof) or other entity of any kind and (ii) “Affiliate” means any Person that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by or is under common control with a Person as such terms are used in and construed under Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Section 2. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company.

The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Placement Agent that as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date:

(a) The Company meets the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the Securities Act and has prepared and filed with the Commission a shelf registration statement, as defined in Rule 405 (file number 333-251061) on Form S-3, including a related prospectus (the “Base Prospectus”), for registration under the Act of the offering and sale of the Offered Securities. The Company will next file with the Commission a prospectus supplement relating to the Offered Securities in accordance with Rule 424(b) (together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus Supplement”). The Registration Statement, at the Execution Time, is effective and meets the requirements set forth in Rule 415(a)(1)(x). There is no order preventing or suspending the use of the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus Supplement, and, to the knowledge of the Company, no proceeding for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A of the Act against the Company or related to the Offering has been initiated or threatened by the Commission and no notice of objection of the Commission to the use of such Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) under the Act has been received by the Company. Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 which were filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (collectively, the “Exchange Act”) on or before the most recent effective date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement, as the case may be; and any reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of any document under the Exchange Act after the most recent effective date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement, as the case may be, deemed to be incorporated therein by reference. Certain terms used herein are defined in Section 13 hereof.

(b) On each effective date, the Registration Statement did, and when the Prospectus Supplement is first filed in accordance with Rule 424(b) and on the Closing Date, the Prospectus Supplement (and any amendment or supplement thereto) will, comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act and the Exchange Act and the respective rules thereunder; on each effective date and at the Execution Time, the Registration Statement did not and will not 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 date of any filing pursuant to Rule 424(b); and on the Closing Date, the Prospectus Supplement (together with any amendment or supplement thereto) will not include 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; provided, however, that the Company makes no representations or warranties as to the information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus Supplement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by the Placement Agent specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus Supplement (or any amendment or supplement thereto), it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Placement Agent consists of the information described as such in Section 2(b) hereof.

As of the Initial Sale Time, the Pricing Disclosure Package, when taken together as a whole with the pricing information set forth in Exhibit A hereto, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from the Pricing Disclosure Package based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Placement Agent specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of the Placement Agent consists of the information described as such in Section 2(b) hereof.

Prior to the execution of this Agreement, the Company has not, directly or indirectly, offered or sold any of the Securities by means of any “prospectus” (within the meaning of the Act) or used any “prospectus” (within the meaning of the Act) in connection with the offer or sale of the Securities, in each case other than the Registration Statement and the Prospectus Supplement.

At the time the Registration Statement was originally declared effective, and at the time the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K was filed with the Commission, (i) the Company met the then applicable requirements for the use of Form S-3 under the Securities Act, including General Instruction I.B.1 of Form S-3 and (ii) the aggregate market value of the outstanding voting and non-voting common equity (as defined in Securities Act Rule 405) of the Company held by persons other than affiliates of the Company (pursuant to Securities Act Rule 144, those that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, control, or are controlled by, or are under common control with, the Company) (the “Non-Affiliate Shares”), was equal to or greater than $75 million (calculated by multiplying (x) the highest price at which the common equity of the Company closed on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) within 60 days of the date of this Agreement times (y) the number of Non-Affiliate Shares). The Company is not a shell company (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) and has not been a shell company for at least 12 calendar months previously and if it has been a shell company at any time previously, has filed current Form 10 information (as defined in Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3) with the Commission at least 12 calendar months previously reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

If during such period any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus Supplement as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then existing, not misleading, or if during such period it is necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus Supplement to comply with the Securities Act, the Company will promptly notify the Placement Agent to suspend the offering of Offered Securities during such period and the Company will promptly amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus Supplement (at the expense of the Company) so as to correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance.

Schedule A

Indemnification

In connection with the engagement of the Placement Agent to assist the Company as described in this Agreement, including modifications or future additions to such engagement and related activities prior to the date of this Agreement (the “engagement”), the Company agrees that it will indemnify and hold harmless the Placement Agent and its respective affiliates and their respective directors, officers, partners, members, agents and employees and each other person controlling the Placement Agent or any of its respective affiliates (each, an “indemnified party”), to the full extent lawful, from and against any losses, expenses, claims or proceedings (collectively, “losses”) (i) related to or arising out of (A) the contents of oral or written information related to this Agreement, the Securities Purchase Agreement, or any transaction or conduct in connection therewith provided by the Company, its affiliates and their respective employees or its other agents, which information either the Company or the Placement Agent provides to any actual or potential buyers, sellers, investors or offerees; (B) any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant by the Company contained in this Agreement; or (C) any other action or failure to act by the Company, its affiliates and their respective employees or its other agents or by the Placement Agent or any indemnified party in accordance with and at the Company’s request or with the Company’s consent, or (ii) otherwise related to or arising out of this Agreement or any transaction or conduct in connection therewith, including, without limitation the Offering, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply with respect to any losses that are finally judicially determined to have resulted primarily and directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnified party. The Company further agrees that no indemnified party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company or any of its affiliates, creditors or security holders for or in connection with the engagement or any actual or proposed transactions or other conduct in connection therewith except for losses incurred by the Company that are finally judicially determined to have resulted primarily and directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an indemnified party.

In the event that the foregoing indemnity is unavailable to any indemnified party for any reason, the Company agrees to contribute to any losses related to or arising out of the engagement or any transaction or conduct in connection therewith as follows. For losses referred to in clause (i) of the preceding paragraph, the Placement Agent and the Company shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received (or anticipated to be received) by the Placement Agent, on the one hand, and by the Company and its security holders, on the other hand, from the actual or proposed transaction arising in connection with the engagement. For any other losses, and for losses referred to in clause (i) of the preceding paragraph if the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Placement Agent and the Company shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits as set forth above, but also the relative fault of the Placement Agent and the Company in connection with the statements, omissions or other conduct that resulted in such losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received (or anticipated to be received) by the Company and its security holders shall be deemed to be equal to the aggregate cash consideration and value of securities or any other property payable, issuable, exchangeable or transferable in such transaction or proposed transaction, and benefits received by the Placement Agent shall be deemed to be equal to the compensation paid by the Company to the Placement Agent in connection with the engagement (exclusive of amounts paid for reimbursement of expenses under this agreement, including this Schedule A, and amounts paid under this Schedule A). Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any alleged untrue statement or omission or any other alleged conduct relates to information provided by the Company or other conduct by the Company (or its employees or other agents), on the one hand, or by the Placement Agent, on the other hand. The Placement Agent and the Company agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, in no event shall the Placement Agent be responsible under this paragraph for any amounts in excess of the amount of the compensation actually paid by the Company to the Placement Agent in connection with the engagement (exclusive of amounts paid for reimbursement of expenses under this Agreement, including this Schedule A, and amounts paid under this Schedule A).

Any indemnified party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Schedule A will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such indemnified party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or parties under this Schedule A, notify the Company of the commencement of

such action, enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the omission so to notify the Company will not relieve the Company from (i) any liability that it might have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Schedule A and (ii) any liability that it may have to any indemnified party under the foregoing provision of this Schedule A unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses by the indemnifying party. If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the Company of its commencement, the Company will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it elects by delivering written notice to the indemnified party promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the indemnified party to assume the defense of the action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and after notice from Company to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense, the Company will not be liable to the indemnified party for any other legal expenses except as provided below and except for the reasonable costs of investigation subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense. The indemnified party will have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (3) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the Company (in which case the Company will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (4) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such action or counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, in each case, within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action; in each of which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood that the Company shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm admitted to practice in such jurisdiction (plus local counsel) at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties.

The Company agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent, settle any pending or threatened claim or proceeding related to or arising out of the engagement or any actual or proposed transactions or other conduct in connection therewith (whether or not the Placement Agent or any indemnified party is a party to such claim or proceeding) unless such settlement includes a provision unconditionally releasing the Placement Agent and each other indemnified party from all liability in respect of claims by any releasing party related to or arising out of the engagement or any transactions or conduct in connection therewith and does not contain an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of such indemnified party. The Placement Agent will not settle any claims or actions for which they seek indemnification or contribution hereunder without the consent of the Company, not to be unreasonably withheld. The Company will also promptly reimburse each indemnified party for all reasonable out of pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) as they are reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating, preparing for, defending, or providing evidence in, any pending or threatened claim or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Placement Agent or any indemnified party is a party to such claim or proceeding) or in enforcing this Schedule A.

The foregoing provisions are in addition to any rights the Company or the Placement Agent may have at common law or otherwise and shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, and personal representatives of the Company and each indemnified party. Solely for purposes of enforcing the provisions of this Schedule A, the Company hereby consents to personal jurisdiction, service of process and venue in any court in which any claim or proceeding that is subject to this Schedule A is brought against the Placement Agent. The provisions of this Schedule A shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Placement Agent or (ii) the completion or termination of the engagement.
