Ladies and Gentlemen:

LMI Holdings, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Holding Company”), and Lebanon Mutual Insurance Company, a Pennsylvania mutual insurance company (in both mutual form and converted stock form, “LMIC”, and together with the Holding Company, the “Primary Parties”), hereby confirm, jointly and severally, their agreement with Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated (the “Agent”), as follows:

1. The Offering. On December 19, 2007, the Board of Directors of LMIC adopted a Plan of Conversion from Mutual to Stock Organization, amended and restated on April 16, 2008 and January 26, 2009 (as amended and restated, the “Plan”), which provides for the conversion of LMIC from a Pennsylvania mutual insurance company to a Pennsylvania stock insurance company (the “Conversion”), the formation of the Holding Company as a holding company that will own 100% of the common stock of LMIC, and the issuance of all of LMIC’s outstanding common stock to the Holding Company (together with the Conversion and the Offerings or Conversion Offerings, as defined below, the “Reorganization”).

Upon completion of the Reorganization, LMIC will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Holding Company. The Reorganization will be accomplished pursuant to applicable Pennsylvania law and the rules and regulations of the Pennsylvania Department of Insurance (the “Department”). The Holding Company is offering up to 1,086,111 shares (the “Shares” or “Conversion Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) shares), in (i) a subscription offering (the “Subscription Offering”), and, if necessary, (ii) a direct community offering (the “Community Offering”), and (iii) a syndicated community offering (the “Syndicated Community Offering”), in connection with the Reorganization. (The Subscription Offering, the Community Offering and the Syndicated Community Offering are herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Conversion Offerings” or the “Offerings”).

The Holding Company will issue the Shares at a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the “Purchase Price”). If the number of Conversion Shares is increased or decreased in accordance with the Plan, the term “Shares” or “Conversion Shares” shall mean such greater or lesser number, where applicable.

The Securities to be offered in the Subscription Offering will be offered pursuant to nontransferable subscription rights in the following order of priority (subject to limitations set forth in the Plan): (i) eligible members under individual policies of insurance issued by LMIC and in force on December 19, 2007 (“Eligible Members”), (ii) a tax-qualified plan of the Company, and (iii) directors, officers, managers and employees of LMIC as of December 19, 2007 and, without duplication, as of the effective date of the Conversion (“LMIC Legacy Participants”).

The Holding Company may offer shares of Common Stock for which subscriptions have not been received in the Subscription Offering in the Community Offering to the following categories of subscribers (equal priority inter se) before offering them to the general public: (i) (iv) Tuscarora-Wayne Mutual Insurance Company or its assigns (“TW”) and Tuscarora-Wayne Investments, LLC (“TW Investments”), (ii) natural persons and trusts of natural persons residing in Berks, Dauphin, Lancaster and Lebanon Counties, Pennsylvania; (iii) licensed insurance agencies and/or brokers that have been appointed by or otherwise are under contract with LMIC to market and distribute policies of insurance, and (iv) named insureds under policies of insurance issued by LMIC after December 19, 2007. In the event a Community Offering is held, it may be held at any time during or immediately after the Subscription Offering. Depending on market conditions, shares not subscribed for in the Subscription Offering or in the Community Offering may be offered in the Syndicated Community Offering to selected members of the general public through a syndicate of registered broker-dealers solely managed by the Agent which are members of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”).

It is acknowledged that the number of Shares to be sold in the Offerings may be increased or decreased as described in the Prospectus (as hereinafter defined); that the purchase of Shares in the Offerings is subject to maximum and minimum purchase limitations as described in the Prospectus; and that the Holding Company may reject, in whole or in part, any subscription received in the Community Offering or Syndicated Community Offering.

The Holding Company has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-150358) in order to register the Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the “1933 Act Regulations”) and has filed such amendments thereto as have been required to the date hereof (the “Registration Statement”). The prospectus, as amended, included in the Registration Statement at the time it initially becomes effective is hereinafter called the “Prospectus,” except that if any prospectus is filed by the Holding Company pursuant to Rule 424(b) or (c) of the regulations of the Commission under the 1933 Act differing from the prospectus included in the Registration Statement at the time it initially becomes effective, the term “Prospectus” shall refer to the prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) or (c) from and after the time said prospectus is filed with the Commission and shall include any supplements and amendments thereto from and after their dates of effectiveness or use, respectively.

In accordance with the Pennsylvania Insurance Company Mutual-to-Stock Conversion Act, 40 P.S. Sections 911-A et seq., and the applicable rules and regulations of the Department (collectively, the “Conversion Regulations”), LMIC has filed with the Department an application

for conversion (such application, as amended or supplemented form time to time, is hereinafter referred to as the “Conversion Application”). In accordance with the Insurance Holding Companies Act, 40 P.S. Section ###-###-#### et seq., as amended, and the applicable rules and regulations of the Department (collectively the “Acquisition Regulations”), the Holding Company and TW filed applications requesting approval to acquire control of LMIC and the Holding Company, respectively (such applications, as amended or supplemented from time to time, are hereafter referred to as the “Acquisition Applications”). The Conversion Application and the Acquisition Applications are collectively referred to as the “Applications.”

Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Holding Company is delivering to the Agent copies of the Prospectus dated ___, 2009 of the Holding Company to be used in the Subscription Offering and Community Offering (if any), and, if necessary, will deliver copies of the Prospectus and any prospectus supplement for use in a Syndicated Community Offering as defined in the Prospectus.

The Holding Company, LMIC, Griffin MTS Partners, LLC (“MTS”), Stevens & Lee, TW and TW Investments have entered into an Investment Agreement dated December 19, 2007, amended and restated April 16, 2008 and January 26, 2009 (as amended and restated, the “Investment Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, MTS has agreed to be responsible for certain fees and expenses of the Conversion and the Offerings.

2. Appointment of the Agent. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Primary Parties hereby appoint the Agent to consult with and to advise and assist the Primary Parties with respect to the sale of the Conversion Shares in the Offerings.

On the basis of the representations and warranties of the Primary Parties contained in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, this Agreement, the Agent accepts such appointment and agrees to consult with and advise the Primary Parties as to the matters set forth in Section 3 of the letter agreement, dated January 14, 2008, among LMIC, MTS and the Agent (“Letter Agreement”) (a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A). It is acknowledged by the Primary Parties that the Agent shall not be obligated to purchase any Shares and shall not be obligated to take any action which is inconsistent with any applicable law, regulation, decision or order. Except as provided in the last paragraph of this Section 2, the appointment of the Agent hereunder shall terminate upon consummation of the Offerings.

If selected broker-dealers are used to assist in the sale of Conversion Shares in the Syndicated Community Offering, the Primary Parties hereby, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, appoint the Agent to manage such broker-dealers in the Syndicated Community Offering. On the basis of the representations and warranties of the Primary Parties contained in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, this Agreement, the Agent accepts such appointment and agrees to manage the selling group of broker-dealers in the Syndicated Community Offering.

3. Refund of Purchase Price. In the event that the Offerings are not consummated for any reason, including but not limited to the inability to sell a minimum of 935,000 Conversion Shares during the Offering (including any permitted extension thereof) or such other minimum number of Shares as shall be established consistent with the Plan and the Conversion

Regulations, this Agreement shall terminate and any persons who have subscribed for any of the Conversion Shares shall have refunded to them the full amount that has been received from such person, without interest, as provided in the Prospectus. Upon termination of this Agreement, neither the Agent nor the Primary Parties shall have any obligation to the other except that (i) the Primary Parties shall remain liable for any amounts due pursuant to Sections 4, 9, 11 and 12 hereof, unless the transaction is not consummated due to the breach by the Agent of a warranty, representation or covenant; and (ii) the Agent shall remain liable for any amount due pursuant to Sections 11 and 12 hereof, unless the transaction is not consummated due to the breach by the Primary Parties of a warranty, representation or covenant.

4. Fees. In addition to the expenses specified in Section 9 hereof, as compensation for the Agent’s services under this Agreement, the Agent has received or will receive the following fees from MTS on behalf of the Primary Parties:

	(a)		An advisory and marketing services fee in the amount of $225,000, paid as follows: (i) $25,000 was paid upon execution of the Letter Agreement, (ii) $25,000 was paid upon the initial filing of the Registration Statement, and (iii) the remaining $175,000 shall be payable at Closing (as defined in Section 5).

	(b)		If any of the Shares remain unsubscribed after the Subscription Offering and Community Offering, at the request of the Primary Parties, the Agent will form a group of approved broker-dealer firms (the “Assisting Brokers”) in accordance with Section 2 hereof for purposes of the Syndicated Community Offering. The Primary Parties, in consultation with the Agent, will determine which FINRA member firms will participate in the Syndicated Community Offering and the extent of their participation. The fees payable by the Primary Parties pursuant to this Section 4(b) will not exceed five and one-half percent (5.50%) of the aggregate dollar amount of the Shares sold in the Syndicated Community Offering. Of such fee, the Agent will receive one percent (1.0%) of the aggregate dollar amount of the Shares sold pursuant to this Section 4(b) as a management fee, and the Primary Parties will pay the remainder to the Assisting Brokers, which may include the Agent, in amounts relating to the number of Shares sold by such Assisting Brokers pursuant to this Section 4(b). All such fees payable under this Section 4(b) shall be in addition to all fees payable under Section 4(a) and shall be paid at Closing (as defined in Section 5). A form of Assisting Brokers Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit B.

In the event that the Holding Company resolicits subscribers for Shares in the Subscription and Community Offering and the Agent is required to provide significant additional services in connection with such a resolicitation, the Primary Parties, MTS and the Agent shall mutually agree to the dollar amount of additional fees due to the Agent, if any. Until any agreement called for by this paragraph is reached, the Agent shall not accrue expenses relating to any resolicitation in an amount that would cause the total expenses incurred by the Agent to be greater than as set forth in Section 9 hereof without the prior written consent of MTS and the Holding Company or LMIC, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

If this Agreement is terminated in accordance with the provisions of Sections 3, 10, or 14, and the sale of Shares is not consummated, the Agent shall not be entitled to receive the fees set forth in Sections 4(a) and(b), but the Agent will be entitled to retain the payment of $50,000 received by it for its advisory, administrative and marketing services and MTS on behalf of the Primary Parties will reimburse the Agent for its reasonable expenses pursuant to Section 9. Any amount paid pursuant to Section 4(a) above shall be applied to any fees due upon termination.

5. Closing. If the minimum number of Conversion Shares required to be sold in the Offerings on the basis of the most recently updated evaluation of the pro forma market value of LMIC (the “Appraisal”) are subscribed for at or before the termination of the Offerings, and the other conditions to the completion of the Offerings are satisfied, the Holding Company agrees to issue the Shares on the Closing Time (as hereinafter defined) against payment therefore by the means authorized by the Plan and to deliver certificates evidencing ownership of the Conversion Shares in such authorized denominations and registered in such names as may be indicated on the subscription order forms directly to the purchasers thereof as promptly as practicable after the Closing Time. The Closing (the “Closing’) shall be held at the offices of special counsel to the Primary Parties, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon among the Primary Parties and the Agent, at 10:00 a.m., prevailing Eastern Time, on the business day selected by the Holding Company, which business day shall be no less than two business days following the giving of prior notice by the Holding Company to the Agent or at such other time as shall be agreed upon by the Primary Parties and the Agent. At the Closing, the Primary Parties shall deliver to the Agent by wire transfer in same-day funds the commissions, fees and expenses owing as set forth in Sections 4 and 9 hereof and the opinions required hereby and other documents deemed reasonably necessary by the Agent shall be executed and delivered to effect the sale of the Shares as contemplated hereby and pursuant to the terms of the Prospectus; provided, however, that all out-of-pocket expenses to which the Agent is entitled under Section 9 hereof shall be due and payable upon receipt by the Holding Company or LMIC of a written accounting therefore setting forth in reasonable detail the expenses incurred by the Agent. The hour and date upon which the Holding Company shall release the Conversion Shares for delivery in accordance with the terms hereof is referred to herein as the “Closing Time.”

The Agent shall have no liability to any party for the records or other information provided by the Primary Parties (or their agents) to the Agent for use in allocating the Shares. Subject to the limitations of Section 11 hereof, the Primary Parties shall indemnify and hold harmless the Agent for any liability arising out of the allocation of the Shares in accordance with (i) the Plan generally, and (ii) the records or other information provided to the Agent by the Primary Parties (or their respective agents).

6. Representations and Warranties of the Primary Parties. The Primary Parties jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Agent that, except as disclosed in the Prospectus:

(a)

The Holding Company and LMIC have and, as of the Closing Time, will have all such power, authority, authorizations, approvals and orders as may be required to enter into this Agreement, to carry out the provisions and conditions hereof and to issue and sell the Shares as provided herein and as described in the Prospectus. Subject to the receipt of member and regulatory approval, the consummation of

the Conversion and the Reorganization, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Letter Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated, have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Holding Company and LMIC. This Agreement has been validly executed and delivered by the Holding Company and LMIC, and is a valid, legal and binding obligation of the Holding Company and LMIC, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the legality, validity, binding nature and enforceability thereof may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, conservatorship, receivership or other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally; (ii) general equity principles regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law; and (iii) the extent, if any, that the provisions of Sections 11 or 12 hereof may be unenforceable as against public policy.


	(b)		The Registration Statement was declared effective by the Commission on ___, 2009, and no stop order has been issued with respect thereto and no proceedings therefore have been initiated or, to the best knowledge of the Primary Parties, threatened by the Commission. At the time the Registration Statement (including the Prospectus contained therein) became effective, the Registration Statement (including the Prospectus contained therein) complied as to form in all material respects with the 1933 Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and the Registration Statement (including the Prospectus contained therein) 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. At the time any Rule 424(b) or (c) Prospectus was filed with the Commission and at the Closing Time referred to in Section 5, the Registration Statement, including the Prospectus contained therein (including any amendment or supplement thereto), and any Blue Sky Application or any Sales Information authorized by the Primary Parties for use in connection with the Offerings will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the representations and warranties in this Section 6(b) shall not apply to statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Primary Parties by the Agent expressly regarding the Agent for use under the captions “MARKET FOR THE COMMON STOCK” and “The CONVERSION – Marketing and Underwriting Arrangements” or written statements or omissions from any Blue Sky Application or any Sales Information.


	(c)		At the time of filing the Registration Statement and at the date hereof, the Holding Company was not, and is not, an ineligible issuer, as defined in Rule 405. At the time of the filing of the Registration Statement and at the time of the use of any issuer free writing prospectus, as defined in Rule 433(h), the Holding Company met the conditions required by Rules 164 and 433 for the use of a free writing prospectus. If required to be filed, the Holding Company has filed any issuer free writing prospectus related to the offered Shares at the time it is required to be

filed under Rule 433 and, if not required to be filed, will retain such free writing prospectus in the Holding Company’s records pursuant to Rule 433(g) and if any issuer free writing prospectus is used after the date hereof in connection with the offering of the Shares the Holding Company will file or retain such free writing prospectus as required by Rule 433.

(d)

As of the Applicable Time (as hereinafter defined), neither (i) the Issuer-Represented General Free Writing Prospectus(es) issued at or prior to the Applicable Time and the Statutory Prospectus, all considered together (collectively, the “General Disclosure Package”), nor (ii) any individual Issuer-Represented Limited-Use Free Writing Prospectus, when considered together with the General Disclosure Package, included 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 preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from any Prospectus included in the Registration Statement relating to the offered Shares or any Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Primary Parties by the Agent specifically for use therein. As used in this paragraph and elsewhere in this Agreement:

	(i)		“Applicable Time” means each and every date when a potential purchaser submitted a subscription or otherwise committed to purchase Shares.

	(ii)		“Statutory Prospectus” as of any time, means the Prospectus relating to the offered Shares that is included in the Registration Statement relating to the offered Shares immediately prior to that time, including any document incorporated by reference therein.

	(iii)		“Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus” means any “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433(h), relating to the offered Shares that is required to be filed with the Commission by the Holding Company or required to be filed with the Commission. The term does not include any writing exempted from the definition of prospectus pursuant to clause (g) of Section 2(a)(10) of the 1933 Act, without regard to Rule 172 or Rule 173 under the 1933 Act Regulations.

	(iv)		“Issuer-Represented General Free Writing Prospectus” means any Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus that is intended for general distribution to prospective investors.

	(v)		“Issuer-Represented Limited-Use Free Writing Prospectus” means any Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus that is not an Issuer-Represented General Free Writing Prospectus. The term Issuer-Represented Limited-Use Free Writing Prospectus also includes any “bona fide electronic road show,” as defined in Rule 433 under the 1933 Act Regulations, that is made available without restriction pursuant to Rule

433(d)(8)(ii) under the 1933 Act Regulations or otherwise, even though not required to be filed with the Commission.

	(e)		Each Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus, as of its date of first use and at all subsequent times through the completion of the Offerings and sale of the offered Shares or until any earlier date that the Holding Company notified or notifies the Agent (as described in the next sentence), did not, does not and will not include any information that conflicted, conflicts or will conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, including any document incorporated by reference therein that has not been superseded or modified. If at any time following the date of first use of an Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus conflicted or would conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement relating to the offered Shares or included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at that subsequent time, not misleading, the Holding Company has notified or will notify promptly the Agent so that any use of such Issuer-Represented Free-Writing Prospectus may cease until it is amended or supplemented, and the Holding Company has promptly amended or will promptly amend or supplement such Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict, untrue statement or omission. The foregoing two sentences do not apply to statements in or omissions from any Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Primary Parties by the Agent specifically for use therein.


	(f)		Pursuant to the Conversion Regulations and the Acquisition Regulations, as applicable, (i) LMIC has filed with the Department the Conversion Application seeking approval of the Reorganization, and has filed such amendments thereto and supplementary materials as may have been required to the date hereof including copies of LMIC’s Notice and Proxy Statement relating to the Conversion (the “Proxy Statement”); and (ii) the Holding Company, TW and TW Investments have filed with the Department the Acquisition Applications, and have filed such amendments thereto and supplementary materials as have been required to the date hereof. At the date of such approvals and at the Closing Time, the Plan will comply in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Conversion Regulations and the Acquisition Regulations.


	(g)		At the Closing Time, the Conversion will have been completed. At the time of the approvals and at all times subsequent thereto until the Closing Time, each of the Applications and the Prospectus (including any amendment or supplement thereto), did not and does 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, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that representations or warranties in this subsection (g) shall not apply to statements or omissions made in reliance upon

			and in conformity with written information furnished to the Primary Parties by the Agent expressly regarding the Agent for use in Prospectus under the captions “MARKET FOR THE COMMON STOCK” and “THE CONVERSION – Marketing and Underwriting Arrangements” or written statements or omissions from any Blue Sky Applications or any Sales Information.
	(h)		At the time of their use, the Proxy Statement and any other proxy solicitation materials will comply in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Conversion Regulations and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Primary Parties will promptly file the Prospectus and any supplemental sales literature with the Commission and the Department. The Prospectus and all supplemental sales literature, as of the date the Registration Statement became effective and at the Closing Time referred to in Section 5, will have received all required authorizations for use in final form.


	(i)		At the Closing Time, the Primary Parties will have completed the conditions precedent to the Conversion in accordance with the Plan, the Conversion Regulations, the Acquisition Regulations and all other applicable laws, regulations, decisions and orders, including all material terms, conditions, requirements and provisions precedent to the Conversion imposed upon the Primary Parties, MTS, TW or TW Investments by any regulatory authority, other than those which the regulatory authority permits to be completed after the Conversion.


	(j)		No order has been issued by the Department, the Commission, or any other state or federal regulatory authority, preventing or suspending the use of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Proxy Statement or any Supplemental Sales literature, and no action by or before any such government entity to revoke any approval, authorization or order of effectiveness related to the Reorganization or the Offerings is pending or, to the best knowledge of the Primary Parties, threatened.

	(k)		The Plan has been duly adopted by the Board of Directors of LMIC. To the knowledge of the Primary Parties, no person has, or at the Closing Time will have, sought to obtain review of the final action of any state or federal regulatory authority in approving the Plan, the Conversion, the Reorganization, the Applications or the Offerings, pursuant to the Conversion Regulations, the Acquisition Regulations or any other statute or regulation.

	(l)		Feldman Financial Advisors, Inc., which prepared the valuation of LMIC as part of the Conversion, has advised the Primary Parties in writing that it is independent with respect to each of the Primary Parties within the meaning of the Conversion Regulations. The Primary Parties believe that Feldman Financial Advisors, Inc. is a “qualified expert” within the meaning of the Conversion Regulations.

	(m)		Beard Miller Company, LLP, which certified the financial statements included in the Registration Statement, has advised the Primary Parties that it is an independent registered public accounting firm within the meaning of the Code of Ethics of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the “AICPA”), that it is registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”), and that it is, with respect to each of the Primary Parties, an independent certified public accountant within the meaning of, and is not in violation of the auditor independent requirements of the 1933 Act, the 1933 Act Regulations, the regulations of the PCAOB, the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) and the Conversion Regulations.

	(n)		The financial statements and the notes thereto which are included in the Registration Statement and which are a part of the Prospectus present fairly the financial condition and retained earnings of LMIC as of the dates indicated and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods specified. The financial statements comply in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the 1933 Act Regulations, Regulation S-X of the Commission and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis during the periods presented except as otherwise noted therein, and present fairly in all material respects the information required to be stated therein. The other financial, statistical and pro forma information and related notes included in the Prospectus present fairly the information shown therein on a basis consistent with the audited and unaudited financial statements included in the Prospectus, and as to the pro forma adjustments, the adjustments made therein have been properly applied on the basis described therein.

	(o)		Since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, including the Prospectus, other than disclosed therein: (i) there has not been any material adverse change in the financial condition or in the earnings, capital, properties or business affairs of any of the Primary Parties or of the Primary Parties considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business (“Material Adverse Effect”); (ii) there has not been any material change in total assets of LMIC nor has LMIC or the Holding Company issued any securities or incurred any liability or obligation for borrowings other than in the ordinary course of business; and (iii) there have not been any material transactions entered into by any of the Primary Parties, other than those in the ordinary course of business.

LMIC does not own equity securities or any equity interest in any other business enterprise except as otherwise described in the Prospectus.

	(r)		Upon consummation of the Reorganization, the authorized, issued and outstanding equity capital of the Holding Company will be within the range set forth in the Prospectus under the caption “Capitalization” (except for subsequent issuances, if any, pursuant to reservations, agreements or employee benefit plans referred to in the Prospectus); no shares of Common Stock have been or will be issued and outstanding prior to the Closing Time; and the shares of Common Stock to be subscribed for in the Offerings have been duly and validly authorized for issuance and, when issued and delivered by the Holding Company pursuant to the Plan against payment of the consideration calculated as set forth in the Plan and the Prospectus, will be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable; the issuance of the Shares are not subject to preemptive rights, except for the Subscription Rights granted pursuant to the Plan; and the terms and provisions of the shares of Common Stock will conform in all material respects to the description thereof contained in the Prospectus.

The Holding Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to effect and maintain

			its authorization for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board and comply with all applicable listing standards related thereto during the two (2) year period subsequent to the Closing Date.

The Primary Parties will maintain, together with the Agent, such records of all funds received to permit the funds of each subscriber to be separately insured by the FDIC (to the maximum extent allowable) and to enable the Primary Parties to make the appropriate refunds of such funds in the event that such refunds are required to be made in accordance with the Plan and as described in the Prospectus.

	(q)		The Primary Parties will take such actions and furnish such information as are reasonably requested by the Agent in order for the Agent to ensure compliance with Rule 2790 of FINRA.

In addition, the execution

			and delivery of and performance under this Agreement by the Primary Parties and MTS, the incurrence of the obligations set forth herein and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein will not result in any material violation of the provisions of the charter or the bylaws (or other constituent documents) of any of the Primary Parties or MTS or any material violation of any applicable law, act, regulation, or to such counsel’s knowledge, order or court order, writ, injunction or decree.

In rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely as to matters of fact, to the extent such counsel deems proper, on certificates of responsible officers of the Primary Parties and MTS (to the extent relevant) and public officials, provided copies of any such opinion(s) or certificates of public officials are delivered to Agent together with the opinion to be rendered hereunder by counsel to the Primary Parties. The opinion of such counsel for the Primary Parties shall state that it has no reason to believe that the Agent is not justified in relying thereon.

(3) The favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of counsel for the Agent, with respect to such matters as the Agent may reasonably require; such opinion may rely, as to matters of fact, upon certificates of officers and directors of the Primary Parties delivered pursuant hereto or as such counsel may reasonably request and upon the opinion of counsel to the Primary Parties and MTS or other counsel acceptable to the Agent.

Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Agent shall receive a letter from Beard Miller Company LLP, dated the date hereof and addressed to the Agent, such letter (i) confirming that Beard Miller Company LLP, is an independent registered public accounting firm within the meaning of the Code of Professional Ethics of AICPA, that it is registered with the PCAOB, and that it is, with respect to the Primary Parties, an independent certified public accounting firm with the meaning of, and is not in violation of the auditor independence requirements of, the 1933 Act, the 1933 Act Regulations, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or the PCAOB Regulations; and no information concerning its relationship with or interests in the Primary Parties is required by Item 10 of the Registration Statement, (ii) stating in effect that in Beard Miller Company LLP’s opinion the financial statements of LMIC included in the Prospectus comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the 1933 Act, the 1933 Act Regulations, and accounting principles generally acceptable in the United States of America consistently applied; (iii) stating in effect that, on the basis of certain agreed upon procedures set forth in detail in such letter, nothing has come to their attention which caused them to believe that: (A) the unaudited financial statements and supporting schedules of LMIC or the Holding Company included in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the General Disclosure Package do not comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations, or are not in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applied on a basis substantially consistent with that of the audited financial statements included in the Prospectus; or (B) the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data of the Holding Company included in the Registration Statement do not comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of Rule 11-02 of Regulations S-X and that the pro forma adjustments were not properly applied to the applicable historical amounts in the compilation of such data, (C) at a specified date not more than five days prior to the date of this Agreement, there has been any change in the equity of LMIC, increase in the consolidated debt of the Holding Company or long-term or short-term debt of LMIC, or any decrease in assets or equity of LMIC, in each case as compared with the amounts shown in the most recent balance sheet included in the Registration Statement, or (D) during the period from the date of the most

			recent balance sheet included in the Registration Statement to a specified date not more than five days prior to the date of this Agreement, there were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, in net income of LMIC, except in all instances for increases or decreases which the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and the General Disclosure Package disclose have occurred or may occur; and (iv) stating that, in addition to the audit examination referred to in its opinion included in the Prospectus and the performance of the procedures referred to in clause (iii) of this subsection (c), they have compared with the general accounting records of LMIC and other data prepared by the Primary Parties directly from such accounting records, which are subject to the internal controls of LMIC, to the extent specified in such letter, such amounts and/or percentages set forth in the Prospectus as the Agent may reasonably request, and they have found such amounts and percentages to be in agreement therewith (subject to rounding).

	(g)		At the Closing Time, the Agent shall receive a certificate of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of each of the Primary Parties, dated the Closing Time, without personal liability to the effect that: (i) they have examined the Prospectus and at the time the Prospectus became authorized for final use, the Prospectus did not contain an 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; (ii) there has not been, since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Prospectus, any Material Adverse Effect (as defined in Section 6(o)), whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business other than as disclosed in the Prospectus; (iii) the representations and warranties contained in Section 6 of this Agreement are true and correct with the same force and effect as though made at and as of the Closing Time; (iv) each of the Primary Parties has complied in all material respects with all material agreements and satisfied all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Time including the

			conditions contained in this Section 10; (v) no stop order has been issued or, to the best of their knowledge, is threatened, by the Commission or any other governmental body; (vi) no order suspending the Reorganization, including the Conversion and the Offerings, the acquisition of all of the shares of LMIC by the Holding Company or the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and to the best of their knowledge, no proceedings for any such purpose have been initiated or threatened by the Department, the Commission, or any other federal or state authority; (vii) to the best of their knowledge, no person has sought to obtain regulatory or judicial review of the action of the Department in approving the Plan or to enjoin the Reorganization.

	(i)		Prior to and at the Closing Time: (i) in the reasonable opinion of the Agent there shall have been no Material Adverse Effect (as described in Section 6(o)), from and as of the latest dates as of which such condition is set forth in the Prospectus, except as referred to therein; (ii) there shall have been no material transaction entered into by the Primary Parties, independently or considered as one enterprise, from the latest date as of which the financial condition of the Primary Parties is set forth in the Prospectus, other than transactions referred to or contemplated therein; (iii) none of the Primary Parties shall have received from the Department any direction (oral or written, other than directions applicable to all insurance companies) to make any material change in the method of conducting their business with which it has not complied in all material respects (which direction, if any, shall have been disclosed to the Agent) and which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (iv) none of the Primary Parties shall have been in default (nor shall an event have occurred which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under any provision of any agreement or instrument relating to any material outstanding indebtedness; (v) no action, suit or proceeding, at law or in equity or before or by any federal or state commission, board or other administrative agency, shall be pending or, to the knowledge of the Primary Parties, threatened against any of the Primary Parties or affecting any of their properties wherein an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and (vi) the Shares shall have been qualified or registered for offering and sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of the jurisdictions requested by the Agent.

	(j)		Prior to and at the Closing Time, none of the Primary Parties shall have sustained, since the date of the latest audited financial statements included in the Registration Statement and Prospectus, any material loss or interference with its

			business from fire, explosion, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor dispute or court or governmental action, order or decree, otherwise than as set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, and since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, there shall not have been any material change, or any development involving a prospective material change in, or affecting the general affairs of, management, financial position, retained earnings, long-term debt, stockholders’ equity or results of operations of any of the Primary Parties, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, the effect of which, in any such case described above, is in the Agent’s reasonable judgment sufficiently material and adverse as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the Offerings or the delivery of the Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus.


	(k)		At or prior to the Closing Time, the Department shall have, by written order, approved the Applications, a copy of such approvals shall have been supplied to the Agent, such approvals shall remain in full force and effect and no order shall have been issued by the Department suspending or revoking such approvals and no proceedings therefore shall have been initiated and the Department has not threatened LMIC, the Holding Company, TW or TW Investments with the initiation of such proceedings. At or prior to the Closing Time, the Agent shall receive (i) evidence satisfactory to Agent’s counsel that the Commission has declared the Registration Statement effective, and (ii) any other documents that Agent shall reasonably request.


	(l)		Subsequent to the date hereof, there shall not have occurred any of the following: (i) a suspension or limitation in trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or American Stock Exchange or in the over-the-counter market, or quotations halted generally on the Nasdaq Stock Market, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities have been required by either of such exchanges or FINRA or by order of the Commission or any other governmental authority other than temporary trading halts (A) imposed as a result of intraday changes in the Dow Jones Industrial Average, (B) lasting no longer than until the regularly scheduled commencement of trading on the next succeeding business-day, and (C) which, when combined with all other such halts occurring during the previous five business days, total less than three; (ii) a general moratorium on the operations of federally-insured financial institutions or general moratorium on the withdrawal of deposits from federally-insured financial institutions declared by either federal or state authorities; (iii) any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or elsewhere; or (iv) any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis, including, without limitation, terrorist activities after the date hereof, the effect of any of (i) through (iv) herein, in the judgment of the Agent, is so material and adverse as to make it impracticable to market the Shares or to enforce contracts, including subscriptions or purchase orders, for the sale of the Shares.

All such opinions, certificates, letters and documents will be in compliance with the provisions hereof only if they are reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Agent and to counsel for the Agent. Any certificate signed by an officer of the Holding Company or LMIC and delivered to the Agent or to counsel for the Agent shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Holding Company or LMIC, as the case may be, to the Agent as to the statements made therein. If any condition to the Agent’s obligations hereunder to be fulfilled prior to or at the Closing Time is not fulfilled, the Agent may terminate this Agreement (provided that if this Agreement is so terminated but the sale of Shares is nevertheless consummated, the Agent shall be entitled to the full compensation provided for in Section 4 hereof, as well as reimbursement of all expenses as provided herein) or, if the Agent so elects, may waive any such conditions which have not been fulfilled or may extend the time of their fulfillment.

11. Indemnification.

(a)

The Primary Parties jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent, its officers, directors, agents, and employees and each person, if any, who controls the Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20(a) of the 1934 Act, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense whatsoever (including but not limited to settlement expenses, subject to the limitation set forth in the last sentence of paragraph (c) below), joint or several, that the Agent or any of such officers, directors, agents, employees and controlling Persons (collectively, the “Related Persons”) may suffer or to which the Agent or the Related Persons may become subject under all applicable federal and state laws or otherwise, and to promptly reimburse the Agent and any Related Persons upon written demand for any reasonable expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Agent or any Related Persons in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any actions, proceedings or claims (whether commenced or threatened) to the extent such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions: (i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto), the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus, the Applications, or any blue sky application or other instrument or document of the Primary Parties or based upon written information supplied by any of the Primary Parties filed in any state or jurisdiction to register or qualify any or all of the Shares under the securities laws thereof (collectively, the “Blue Sky Applications”), or any application or other document, advertisement, or communication (“Sales Information”) prepared, made or executed by or on behalf of any of the Primary Parties with its consent or based upon written information furnished by or on behalf of any of the Primary Parties, whether or not filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify or register the Shares under the securities laws thereof, (ii) arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in any of the foregoing documents or information, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (iii) arise from any theory of liability whatsoever relating to or arising from or based upon the

			Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto), the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus, the Applications, any Blue Sky Applications or Sales Information or other documentation distributed in connection with the Offering; or (iv) result from any claims made with respect to the accuracy, reliability and completeness of the records of policy holders, including without limitation, Eligible Members, or for any denial or reduction of a subscription or order to purchase Common Stock, whether as a result of a properly calculated allocation pursuant to the Plan or otherwise, based upon such records; provided, however, that no indemnification is required under this paragraph (a) to the extent such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue material statements or alleged untrue material statements in, or material omission or alleged material omission from, the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus, the Applications, the Blue Sky Applications or Sales Information or other documentation distributed in connection with the Reorganization made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Primary Parties by the Agent or its representatives (including counsel) with respect to the Agent expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) under the captions “MARKET FOR THE COMMON STOCK” and “THE CONVERSION – Marketing and Underwriting Arrangements”; provided, further, that the Primary Parties will not be responsible for any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction finds that they result primarily from material oral misstatements by the Agent to a purchaser of Shares which are not based upon information in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, and the Agent agrees to repay to the Primary Parties any amounts advanced to it by the Primary Parties in connection with matters as to which it is found by a court of competent jurisdiction not to be entitled to indemnification hereunder.

	(b)		The Agent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Primary Parties, their directors and officers, agents, and employees and each person, if any, who controls any of the Primary Parties within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20(a) of the 1934 Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense whatsoever (including but not limited to settlement expenses, subject to the limitation set forth in the last sentence of paragraph (c) below), joint or several which they, or any of them, may suffer or to which they, or any of them, may become subject under all applicable federal and state laws or otherwise, and to promptly reimburse the Primary Parties and any such persons upon written demand for any reasonable expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by them in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any actions, proceedings or claims (whether commenced or threatened) to the extent such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment of supplement thereto), any Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus, or any Blue

			Sky Applications or Sales Information or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in any of the foregoing documents a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Agent’s obligations under this Section 11(b) shall exist only if and only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement was made in, or such material fact or alleged material fact was omitted from, the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto), the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), the Blue Sky Applications or Sales Information in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Primary Parties by the Agent or its representatives (including counsel) expressly for use under the captions “MARKET FOR THE COMMON STOCK” and “THE CONVERSION– Marketing and Underwriting Arrangements.”

	(c)		Each indemnified party shall give prompt written notice to each indemnifying party of any action, proceeding, claim (whether commenced or threatened), or suit instituted against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have on account of this Section 11, Section 12 or otherwise. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of such action. In addition, if it so elects within a reasonable time after receipt of such notice, an indemnifying party, jointly with any other indemnifying parties receiving such notice, may assume the defense of such action with counsel chosen by it reasonably acceptable to the indemnified parties that are defendants in such action, unless such indemnified parties reasonably object to such assumption on the ground that there may be legal defenses available to them that are different from or in addition to those available to such indemnifying party. If an indemnifying party assumes the defense of such action, the indemnifying parties shall not be liable for any fees and expenses of counsel for the indemnified parties incurred thereafter in connection with such action, proceeding or claim, other than reasonable costs of investigation. In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (unless an indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from or in addition to those of other indemnified parties) for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action, proceeding or claim or separate but similar or related actions, proceedings or claims in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. The indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any claim against the indemnified party (or its directors, officers, employees, affiliates or controlling persons) made with the indemnifying party’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnifying party shall not, without the written consent of indemnified party, settle or compromise any claim against the indemnified party based upon circumstances giving rise to an indemnification claim against the indemnifying party hereunder unless such settlement or compromise provides that indemnified party and the other indemnified parties shall be unconditionally and irrevocably released from all liability in respect of such claim.

(d)

The agreements contained in this Section 11 and in Section 12 hereof and the representations and warranties of the Primary Parties set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agent or its officers, directors, controlling persons, agents or employees or by or on behalf of any of the Primary Parties or any officers, directors, controlling persons, agents or employees of any of the Primary Parties; (ii) delivery of and payment hereunder for the Shares; or (iii) any termination of this Agreement.

12. Contribution.

(a)

In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in Section 11 is due in accordance with its terms but is found in a final judgment by a court to be unavailable from the Primary Parties or the Agent, the Primary Parties and the Agent shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities of the nature contemplated by such indemnification in such proportion so that (i) the Agent is responsible for that portion represented by the percentage that the fees paid to the Agent pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement (not including expenses) (“Agent’s Fees”), less any portion of Agent’s Fees paid by Agent to Assisting Brokers, bear to the total proceeds received by the Primary Parties from the sale of the Shares in the Offerings, net of all expenses of the Offerings except Agent’s Fees, and (ii) the Primary Parties shall be responsible for the balance. If, however, the allocation provided above is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under Section 11 above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative fault of the Primary Parties on the one hand and the Agent on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions, proceedings or claims in respect thereof), but also the relative benefits received by the Primary Parties on the one hand and the Agent on the other from the Offerings, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Primary Parties on the one hand and the Agent on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the Offerings, net of all expenses of the Offerings except Agent’s Fees, received by the Primary Parties bear, with respect to the Agent, to the total fees (not including expenses) received by the Agent less the portion of such fees paid by the Agent to Assisting Brokers. 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 Primary Parties on the one hand or the Agent on the other and the parties relative intent, good faith, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Primary Parties and the Agent agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 12 were determined by pro-rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 12. The

amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or action, proceedings or claims in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 12 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action, proceeding or claim. It is expressly agreed that the Agent shall not be liable for any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense or be required to contribute any amount which in the aggregate exceeds the amount paid (excluding reimbursable expenses) to the Agent under this Agreement less the portion of such fees paid by the Agent to Assisting Brokers. It is understood and agreed that the above-stated limitation on the Agent’s liability is essential to the Agent and that the Agent would not have entered into this Agreement if such limitation had not been agreed to by the parties to this Agreement. No person found guilty of any fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not found guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 12, each of the Agent’s and the Primary Parties’ officers and directors and each person, if any, who controls the Agent or any of the Primary Parties within the meaning of the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Primary Parties and the Agent. Any party entitled to contribution, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit, claim or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party under this Section 12, will notify such party from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party shall not relieve the party from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it may have hereunder or otherwise than under this Section 12.

13. Survival. All representations, warranties and indemnities and other statements contained in this Agreement or contained in certificates of officers of the Primary Parties or the Agent submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agent or its controlling persons, or by or on behalf of the Primary Parties and shall survive the issuance of the Shares, and any legal representative, successor or assign of the Agent, any of the Primary Parties, and any indemnified person shall be entitled to the benefit of the respective agreements, indemnities, warranties and representations.

14. Termination. Agent may terminate this Agreement by giving the notice indicated below in this Section at any time after this Agreement becomes effective as follows:


	(a)		In the event (i) the Plan is abandoned or terminated by LMIC or the Holding Company; (ii) the Holding Company fails to consummate the sale of the minimum number of the Shares by September 30, 2009 in accordance with the provisions of the Plan or as required by the Conversion Regulations and applicable law; (iii) the Agent terminates this relationship because there has been a Material Adverse Effect; or (iv) immediately prior to commencement of the Offerings, the Agent terminates this relationship because in its opinion, which shall have been formed in good faith after reasonable determination and

			consideration of all relevant factors, there has been a failure to satisfactorily disclose all relevant information in the Prospectus or the existence of market conditions which might render the sale of the Shares inadvisable, this Agreement shall terminate and no party to this Agreement shall have any obligation to the other hereunder, except as set forth in Sections 3, 4, 9, 11 and 12 hereof.

	(b)		If any of the conditions specified in Section 10 shall not have been fulfilled when and as required by this Agreement, or by the Closing Time, or waived in writing by the Agent, this Agreement and all of the Agent’s obligations hereunder may be canceled by the Agent by notifying LMIC of such cancellation in writing at any time at or prior to the Closing Time, and any such cancellation shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as otherwise provided in Sections 3, 4, 9, 11 and 12 hereof.

	(c)		If Agent elects to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section, LMIC shall be notified by the Agent as provided in Section 15 hereof.

	(d)		If this Agreement is terminated in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, MTS shall pay the Agent the fees earned pursuant to Section 4 and will reimburse the Agent for its reasonable expenses pursuant to Section 9.
