Ladies and Gentlemen:

Microvision, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes, subject to the terms and conditions stated in this Placement Agency Agreement (this “Agreement”) and the Subscription Agreements in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Subscription Agreements”) entered into with the investors identified therein (each, an “Investor” and collectively, the “Investors”), to issue and sell an aggregate of shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”). The Shares are more fully described in the Registration Statement (as defined herein). This is to confirm the agreement between the Company and the several placement agents set forth on Schedule I attached hereto (the “Placement Agents”) concerning the offering, issuance and sale of the Shares. FTN Midwest Securities Corp is acting as representative (the “Representative”) of the Placement Agents.

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

(a) The Company hereby authorizes the Placement Agents to act as its exclusive agents in connection with the issuance and sale by the Company of the Shares (the “Offering”) to the Investors, and the Placement Agents hereby agree, as agents of the Company, to use their best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the Shares from the Company on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Prospectus (as defined below). The Placement Agents shall make commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Company in obtaining performance by each Investor whose offer to purchase Shares has been solicited by the Placement Agents and accepted by the Company, but the Placement Agents shall not, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, have any liability to the Company in the event any such purchase is not consummated for any reason. Under no circumstances will the Placement Agents or any of their affiliates be obligated to underwrite or purchase any of the Shares for their own account or otherwise provide any financing. The Placement Agents shall act solely as the Company’s agents and not as principals. The Placement Agents shall have no authority to bind the Company with respect to any prospective offer to purchase Shares and the Company shall have the sole right to accept offers to purchase Shares and may reject any such offer, in whole or in part. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Placement Agents (or their affiliates) may, solely at their discretion and without any obligation to do so, purchase Shares as principals.

(b) As compensation for services rendered, on the Closing Date, the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to the Placement Agents by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Representative an aggregate amount equal to six percent (6.0%) of the gross proceeds received by the Company from its sale of the Shares on such Closing Date. The Placement Agents agree that the foregoing compensation, together with any expense reimbursement payable hereunder, constitutes all of the compensation that the Placement Agents are entitled to receive in connection with the Offering contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) The purchases of Shares by the Investors shall be evidenced by the execution of a Subscription Agreement by each of the parties thereto in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(d) Prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which this Agreement is terminated and (ii) the Closing Date, the Company shall not, except as set forth in this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Representative, solicit or accept offers to purchase Shares of the Company (other than pursuant to the exercise of options or warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock that are outstanding at the date hereof) otherwise than through the Placement Agents in accordance herewith.

(e) No Shares which the Company has agreed to sell pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to have been purchased and paid for, or sold by the Company, until such Shares shall have been delivered to the Investor purchasing such Shares against payment by such Investor. If the Company shall default in its obligations to deliver Shares to an Investor whose offer it has accepted, the Company shall indemnify and hold the Indemnified Parties (as defined below) harmless against any loss, claim, damage or liability directly or indirectly arising from or as a result of such default by the Company.

(f) Payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of, the Shares shall be made at a closing (the “Closing”) at the offices of Ropes & Gray LLP, counsel for the Company, located at One International Place, Boston, Massachusetts, at 11:00 AM, New York City time, on , 2008 or at such other time and date as the Representative and the Company determine pursuant to Rule 15c6-1(a) under the Exchange Act (such date of payment and delivery being herein referred to as the “Closing Date”). The Company, the Representative and JPMorganChase Bank, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), shall have entered into an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) pursuant to which an escrow account will be established, at the Company’s expense, for the benefit of the Company and the Investors (the “Escrow Account”). Each of the Company and the Representative hereby agree to deliver to the Escrow Agent a Closing Notice in the form attached as Exhibit C to the Escrow Agreement on or prior to the Closing Date. All such actions taken at the Closing shall be deemed to have occurred simultaneously.

-20-

(c) Notice and Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party except to the extent such indemnifying party has been materially prejudiced by such failure. In case any such action 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 the indemnifying party’s election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if, in the sole judgment of the Placement Agents, it is advisable for the Placement Agents to be represented by separate counsel, the Placement Agents shall have the right to employ a single counsel to represent such Placement Agents, in which event the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Placement Agents (other than reasonable costs of investigation).

The indemnifying party under this Section 6 shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity was or could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (a) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or proceeding and (b) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) Contribution; Limitation on Liability. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agents on the other from the offering of the Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agents on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agents on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total placement agency fee received by the Placement Agents, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Placement Agents and the parties’ relevant intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Placement Agents agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this subsection (d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d). The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of

-21-

the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending against any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), the Placement Agents shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Shares underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Placement Agents have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Placement Agents’ obligations to contribute as provided in this subsection (d) are several in proportion to the total placement agency fee received by the Placement Agents and not joint.

(e) Non-Exclusive Remedies. The obligations of the Company under this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any Placement Agent within the meaning of the Securities Act; and the obligations of the Placement Agents under this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability that the respective Placement Agents may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each director of the Company (including any person who, with his consent, is named in the Registration Statement as about to become a director of the Company), to each officer of the Company who has signed the Registration Statement and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act.

7. Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. The respective indemnities, covenants, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Placement Agents, as set forth in this Agreement or made by them respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Placement Agents, the Company, the Investors or any person controlling any of them and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Shares. Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, including without limitation any termination pursuant to Section 9, the indemnity and contribution agreements contained in Section 6 and the covenants, representations, warranties set forth in this Agreement shall not terminate and shall remain in full force and effect at all times.

8. Information Furnished by Placement Agents. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, for all purposes of this Agreement, the “Placement Agents’ Information” consists solely of the statements contained in (i) the seventh paragraph, (ii) the first sentence of the eighth paragraph and (iii) the eleventh and thirteenth paragraphs under the heading “Plan of Distribution” in the Prospectus.

9. Termination of this Agreement.

(a) The Placement Agents shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving notice as hereinafter specified at any time at or prior to the Closing Date, without liability on the part of the Placement Agents to the Company, if (i) prior to delivery and payment for the Shares (A) trading in securities generally shall have been suspended on or by the Nasdaq Global Market, (B) trading in the Common Stock of the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange, in the over-the-counter market or by the Commission, (C) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or New York state authorities or a material disruption shall have occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States, (D) there shall have occurred any outbreak or material escalation of hostilities or acts of terrorism involving the United States or there shall have been a declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, (E) there shall have occurred any

-22-

other calamity or crisis or any material change in general economic, political or financial conditions in the United States or elsewhere, if the effect of any such event specified in clause (D) or (E), in the judgment of the Placement Agents, is material and adverse and makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the completion of the sale of and payment for the Shares on the Closing Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, (ii) since the time of execution of this Agreement or the earlier respective dates as of which information is given in the Time of Sale Disclosure Package or incorporated by reference therein, there has been any Material Adverse Effect or the Company or any Subsidiary shall have sustained a loss or interference with its business by strike, fire, flood, earthquake, accident or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, of such character that in the judgment of the Placement Agents would, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect and which would, in the judgment of the Placement Agents, make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or the delivery of the Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in this Agreement, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, (iii) the Company shall have failed, refused or been unable to comply with the terms or perform any material agreement or obligation of this Agreement or any Subscription Agreement, other than by reason of a default by the Placement Agents, or (iv) any condition of the Placement Agents’ obligations hereunder is not fulfilled. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 4(h), Section 6, and Section 13 hereof shall at all times be effective notwithstanding such termination.

(b) If the Placement Agents elect to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section 9, the Company shall be notified promptly by the Representative by telephone, confirmed by letter.

(c) If the sale of the Shares, as contemplated by this Agreement and the Subscription Agreements, is not carried out for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Company shall not be under any obligation or liability under this Agreement (except to the extent provided in Sections 4(h) and 6 hereof), and the Placement Agents shall be under no obligation or liability to the Company under this Agreement (except to the extent provided in Section 6 hereof).

Subscription Terms

Microvision, Inc.

6222 185^th Avenue NE

Redmond, WA 98052

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned (the “Investor”) hereby confirms and agrees with you as follows:

1. The subscription terms set forth herein (the “Subscription”) are made as of the date set forth below between Microvision, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Investor.

2. As of the Closing (as defined below) and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company and the Investor agree that the Investor will purchase from the Company and the Company will issue and sell to the Investor, such number of shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”), as is set forth on the signature page hereto (the “Signature Page”) for a purchase price of $ per Share. The Company agrees that it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to list the Warrants on the Nasdaq Global Market as soon as practicable. The Investor acknowledges that the offering is not a firm commitment underwriting and that there is no minimum offering amount.

3. The completion of the purchase and sale of the Shares shall occur at a closing (the “Closing”) that, in accordance with Rule 15c6-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is expected to occur on or about [ ], 2008. At the Closing, (a) the Company shall cause its transfer agent to release to the Investor the number of Shares being purchased by the Investor and (b) the aggregate purchase price for the Shares being purchased by the Investor will be delivered by JPMorgan Chase Bank, as escrow agent, on behalf of the Investor to the Company. The provisions set forth in Exhibit A hereto shall be incorporated herein by reference as if set forth fully herein.

4. The offering and sale of the Shares are being made pursuant to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (as such terms are defined below). The Investor acknowledges that the Company intends to enter into subscriptions in substantially the same form as this Subscription with certain other third party investors and intends to offer and sell (the “Offering”) up to an aggregate of Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement and Prospectus.

5. The Company has filed or will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) (i) a prospectus (the “Base Prospectus”), (ii) if applicable, a preliminary prospectus related to the Offering (together with the Base Prospectus, the “Statutory Prospectus”), and (iii) if applicable, any issuer free writing prospectus as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the Shares and delivered to the Investor on or prior to the date hereof (the “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”), and will file with the Commission a final prospectus supplement (together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”) with respect to the registration statement (File No. 333-141454) reflecting the Offering, including all amendments thereto, the exhibits and any schedules thereto, the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof or included therein by the rules

and regulations of the Commission (the “Rules and Regulations”) and any registration statement relating to the Offering and filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Rules and Regulations (collectively, the “Registration Statement”), in conformity with the Securities Act, including Rule 424(b) thereunder. The Base Prospectus, any Statutory Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and the pricing information contained in this Subscription are collectively the “Time of Sale Disclosure Package”. The Investor hereby confirms that it has had full access to the Time of Sale Disclosure Package, including the Company’s periodic reports and other information incorporated by reference therein, and was able to read, review, download and print such materials.

6. The Company has entered into a Placement Agency Agreement (the “Placement Agreement”), dated [ ], 2008 with FTN Midwest Securities Corp and Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC (the “Placement Agents”), which will act as the Company’s exclusive placement agents with respect to the Offering and receive a fee in connection with the sale of the Shares.

7. The obligations of the Company and the Investor to complete the transactions contemplated by this Subscription shall be subject to the following:

a. The Company’s obligation to issue and sell the Shares to the Investor shall be subject to: (i) the receipt by the Company of the purchase price for the Shares being purchased hereunder as set forth on the Signature Page and (ii) the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by the Investor and the fulfillment of those undertakings of the Investor to be fulfilled prior to the Closing Date.

b. The Investor’s obligation to purchase the Shares will be subject to the condition that the Placement Agents shall not have: (i) terminated the Placement Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof or (ii) determined that the conditions to closing in the Placement Agreement have not been satisfied. The Investor’s obligations are expressly not conditioned on the purchase by any or all of the other investors of the shares of Common Stock that they have agreed to purchase from the Company.

8. The Company hereby makes the following representations, warranties and covenants to the Investor:

a. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Subscription and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder. The execution and delivery of this Subscription by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Company. This Subscription has been duly executed by the Company and, when delivered in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ and contracting parties’ rights generally or by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

b. The Company shall (i) before the opening of trading on the Nasdaq Global Market on the next trading day after the date hereof, issue a press release, disclosing all material aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) make such other filings and notices in the manner and time required by the Commission with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company shall not identify the Investor by name in any press release or public filing, or otherwise publicly disclose the Investor’s name, without the Investor’s prior written consent, unless required by law or the rules and regulations of any self-regulatory organization which the Company or its securities are subject.

9. The Investor hereby makes the following representations, warranties and covenants to the Company:

a. The Investor represents that (i) it has had full access to the Time of Sale Disclosure Package, including the Company’s periodic reports and other information incorporated by reference therein, prior to or in connection with its receipt of this Subscription, (ii) it is knowledgeable, sophisticated and experienced in making, and is qualified to make, decisions with respect to investments in securities representing an investment decision like that involved in the purchase of the Shares, and (iii) it is acquiring the Shares for its own account, or an account over which it has investment discretion, and does not have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person or entity to distribute any of the Shares.

b. The Investor has the requisite power and authority to enter into this Subscription and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Subscription by the Investor and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Investor. This Subscription has been executed by the Investor and, when delivered in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute a valid and binding obligation of the Investor enforceable against the Investor in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ and contracting parties’ rights generally and except as enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

c. The Investor understands that nothing in this Subscription or any other materials presented to the Investor in connection with the purchase and sale of the Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. The Investor has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of Shares.

d. Neither the Investor nor any Person acting on behalf of, or pursuant to any understanding with or based upon any information received from, the Investor has, directly or indirectly, as of the date of this Subscription, engaged in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any Short Sales involving the Company’s securities) since the time that the Investor was first contacted by the Placement Agents or the Company with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. “Short Sales” include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act. The Investor covenants that neither it, nor any Person acting on behalf of, or pursuant to any understanding with or based upon any information received from, the Investor will engage in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including, without limitation, Short Sales) prior to the time that the transactions contemplated by this Subscription are publicly disclosed. The Investor agrees that it will not use any of the Shares acquired pursuant to this Subscription to cover any short position in the Common Stock if doing so would be in violation of applicable securities laws.

e. The Investor represents that, except as set forth below, (i) it has had no position, office or other material relationship within the past three years with the Company or persons known to it to be affiliates of the Company, (ii) it is not a, and it has no direct or indirect affiliation or association with any, FINRA member or an Associated Person (as such term is defined under FINRA Membership and Registration Rules Section 1011) as of the date hereof, and (iii) neither it nor any group of investors (as identified in a public filing made with the Commission) of which it is a member, acquired, or obtained the right to acquire, 20% or more of the Common Stock (or securities convertible or exercisable for Common Stock) or the voting power of the Company on a post-transaction basis. Exceptions:

(If no exceptions, write “none.” If left blank, response will be deemed to be “none.”)

10. No offer by the Investor to buy Shares will be accepted and no part of the aggregate purchase price will be delivered to the Company until the Investor has received the Time of Sale Disclosure Package and the Company has accepted such offer by countersigning a copy of this Subscription, and any such offer may be withdrawn or revoked, without obligation or commitment of any kind, at any time prior to the Company (or the Placement Agents on behalf of the Company) sending (orally, in writing or by electronic mail) notice of its acceptance of such offer. This Subscription will constitute only an indication of interest, involving no obligation or commitment of any kind, until the Time of Sale Disclosure Package has been delivered or made available to the Investor and this Subscription is accepted and countersigned by or on behalf of the Company.

11. Notwithstanding any investigation made by any party to this Subscription, all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Company and the Investor herein will survive the execution of this Subscription, the delivery to the Investor of the Shares being purchased and the payment therefor.

12. This Subscription may not be modified or amended except pursuant to an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Investor.

13. In case any provision contained in this Subscription should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

14. This Subscription will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

15. This Subscription may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will constitute an original, but all of which, when taken together, will constitute but one instrument, and will become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other parties.

16. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor’s receipt of the Company’s counterpart to this Subscription shall constitute written confirmation of the Company’s sale of Shares to such Investor.

17. In the event that the Placement Agreement is terminated by the Placement Agents pursuant to the terms thereof, this Subscription shall terminate without any further action on the part of the parties hereto.

Re:	Registered Direct Offering of Shares of Common Stock

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that FTN Midwest Securities Corp, as representative of the several placement agents (the “Placement Agents”), proposes to enter into the Placement Agency Agreement (the “Placement Agreement”) with Microvision, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), providing for the offering (the “Offering”) of shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Placement Agreement.

In order to induce the Placement Agents to continue their efforts in connection with the Offering, the undersigned hereby agrees that for a period (the “Lock-Up Period”) of ninety (90) days following the date of the final prospectus filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with such Offering, the undersigned will not, without the prior written consent of FTN Midwest Securities Corp, directly or indirectly, (1) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of any shares of the Common Stock, or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Common Stock; (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for the Common Stock, regardless of whether any such transaction described herein is to be settled by delivery of the Common Stock or such other securities, or by delivery of cash or otherwise; (3) make any demand for, or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any shares of the Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable of exchangeable for the Common Stock; or (4) publicly announce any intention to do any of the foregoing.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions set forth in clause (1) and (2) above shall not apply to (a) transfers (i) as a bona fide gift or gifts, provided that the donee or donees thereof agree to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, (ii) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned, provided that the trustee of the trust agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, and provided further that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (iii) with the prior written consent of FTN Midwest Securities Corp or (iv) effected pursuant to any exchange of “underwater” options with the Company, (b) the acquisition or exercise of an option or warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock (or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock), including the sale of a portion of stock to be issued in connection with such exercise to finance a “cashless” exercise, provided that any such shares issued upon exercise of such option or warrant (or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock) shall continue to be subject to the applicable provisions of this Lock-Up Agreement, (c) the purchase or sale of the Company’s securities pursuant to a plan, contract or instruction that satisfies all of the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) that was in effect prior to the date hereof, or (d) the

disposition of shares of Common Stock to satisfy any tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of shares of restricted Common Stock held by the undersigned. For purposes of this Lock-Up Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin. None of the restrictions set forth in this Lock-Up Agreement shall apply to Common Stock acquired in open market transactions.

If required to allow the Placement Agents to comply with FINRA Rule 2711(f)(4), if (i) the Company issues an earnings release or a release regarding material news or a material event relating to the Company during the last seventeen (17) days of the lock-up period, or (ii) prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the Company announces that it will release earnings results during the sixteen (16)-day period beginning on the last day of the Lock-Up Period, the restrictions imposed by this Lock-Up Agreement shall continue to apply until the expiration of the eighteen (18)-day period beginning on the issuance of the such release (the term “Lock-Up Period” shall be deemed to include any extension pursuant to this paragraph).

The undersigned hereby acknowledges and agrees that written notice of any extension of the Lock-Up Period pursuant to the previous paragraph will be delivered by FTN Midwest Securities Corp to the Company (in accordance with the notice provision in the Placement Agreement) and that any such notice properly delivered will be deemed to have been given to, and received by, the undersigned. The undersigned further agrees that, prior to engaging in any transaction or taking any other action that is subject to the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement during the period from the date of this Lock-Up Agreement to and including the 34th day following the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, it will give notice thereof to the Company and will not consummate such transaction or take any such action unless it has received written confirmation from the Company that the Lock-Up Period (as may have been extended pursuant to the previous paragraph) has expired.

The foregoing restrictions are expressly agreed to preclude the undersigned from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or reasonably expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of the Common Stock even if such Common Stock would be disposed of by someone other than the undersigned. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include without limitation any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including without limitation any put option or put equivalent position or call option or call equivalent position) with respect to any of the Common Stock or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from such Common Stock.

The undersigned hereby agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent against the transfer of securities of the Company held by the undersigned during the Lock-Up Period (as may have been extended pursuant hereto), except in compliance with this Lock-Up Agreement.

The undersigned understands that, if the Placement Agreement does not become effective, or if the Placement Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Shares to be sold thereunder, this Lock-Up Agreement shall be terminated and the undersigned shall be released from all obligations under this Lock-Up Agreement.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Lock-Up Agreement. This Lock-Up Agreement is irrevocable and all authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred shall survive the death or incapacity of the undersigned and any obligations of the undersigned shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the undersigned.

This Lock-Up Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof.


Very truly yours,
