STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL

Medical Transcription Billing Corp.

7 Clyde Road

Somerset, NY 08873

Attn: Mahmud Ul Haq, Chief Executive Officer

Dear Mr. Haq:

This letter agreement (this “Agreement”) constitutes the agreement between Medical Transcription Billing, Corp. (the “Company”) and Rodman & Renshaw, a unit of H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Rodman”), that Rodman shall serve as (i) the agent, advisor or underwriter in an offering of Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (Nasdaq:MTBCP) of the Company offered at the liquidation preference of $25 per share (the “Securities”) and (ii) the exclusive agent, advisor or underwriter in any offering of securities of the Company during the Term (as hereinafter defined) of this Agreement (each, an “Offering”). The terms of each Offering and the Securities issued in connection therewith shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company and Rodman and nothing herein implies that Rodman would have the power or authority to bind the Company and nothing herein implies that the Company shall have an obligation to issue any Securities. It is understood that Rodman’s assistance in an Offering will be subject to the satisfactory completion of such investigation and inquiry into the affairs of the Company as Rodman deems appropriate under the circumstances and to the receipt of all internal approvals of Rodman in connection with the transaction. The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that Rodman’s involvement in an Offering is strictly on a reasonable best efforts basis and that the consummation of an Offering will be subject to, among other things, market conditions. The execution of this Agreement does not constitute a commitment by Rodman to purchase the Securities and does not ensure a successful Offering of the Securities or the success of Rodman with respect to securing any other financing on behalf of the Company. Rodman may retain other brokers, dealers, agents or underwriters on its behalf in connection with an Offering.

A. Compensation; Reimbursement. At the closing of each Offering (each, a “Closing”), the Company shall compensate Rodman as follows:

1. Cash Fee. The Company shall pay to Rodman a cash fee, or as to an underwritten Offering an underwriter discount, equal to 10.0% of the first $3.0 million of gross proceeds raised by the Company in each Offering and 8.0% of any amount raised above $3.0 million.

2. Reserved.

3. Expense Allowance. Out of the proceeds of each Closing, the Company also agrees to pay Rodman (a) a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds raised in each Offering in case of a public Offering; (b) $65,000 for non-accountable expenses; (c) up to $70,000 for fees and expenses of legal counsel; plus the additional reimbursable amount payable by the Company pursuant to Paragraph D.3 hereunder; provided, however, that such reimbursement amount in no way limits or impairs the indemnification and contribution provisions of this Agreement.

4. Tail. Rodman shall be entitled to compensation under clause (1) hereunder, calculated in the manner set forth therein, with respect to any public or private offering or other financing or capital-raising transaction of any kind (“Tail Financing”) to the extent that such financing or capital is provided to the Company by investors whom Rodman had contacted during the Term and introduced to the Company during the Term, if such Tail Financing is consummated at any time within the 18-month period following the expiration or termination of this Agreement. Rodman shall provide Company with a list of investors that are subject to the tail right hereunder prior to or promptly after the closing of the Offering.

5. Multiple Closings. If there are multiple closings for an Offering, the expenses payable pursuant to Paragraphs A.3. (b) and (c) will be paid in full out of the proceeds of the first closing and the cash fee and the management fees payable pursuant to Paragraphs A.1 and A.3 (a), respectively, will be paid at each closing based on the gross proceeds raised in such closing. For the avoidance of doubt, the cash fee will be computed based on aggregate proceeds of each Offering, even if there are multiple closings.

6. Right of First Refusal. If an Offering with gross proceeds of at least $6 million is successfully consummated during the Term, then from the date of the consummation of an Offering until the 12-month anniversary thereafter, the Company or any of its subsidiaries decides to raise funds by means of a public offering or a private placement of equity or equity linked securities using an underwriter or placement agent, Rodman shall have the right to act as book-running manager, underwriter or placement agent for such financing, provided that the terms are equivalent to other offers the Company has received. If Rodman cannot respond with equivalent terms within 3 business days, the Company is free to engage another broker-dealer. Rodman agrees that if a tier 1 or 2 investment bank is interested in serving as bookrunner on a future offering for the Company, Rodman will serve as co-manager.

B. Term and Termination of Engagement. The term of Rodman’s engagement will begin on the date hereof and end four (4) months thereafter, unless the parties mutually agree to extend the term thereof (the “Term”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company agrees that the provisions relating to the payment of fees, reimbursement of expenses, right of first refusal, tail, indemnification and contribution, confidentiality, conflicts, independent contractor and waiver of the right to trial by jury will survive any termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event that this Agreement shall not be carried out for any reason whatsoever during the Term, the Company shall be obligated to pay to Rodman its actual and accountable out-of-pocket expenses related to an Offering (including up to $35,000 in fees and disbursements of Rodman’s legal counsel in the event that an Offering is not completed during the Term).

C. Information; Reliance. The Company shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to Rodman all information requested by Rodman for the purpose of rendering services hereunder and conducting due diligence (all such information being the “Information”). In addition, the Company agrees to make available to Rodman upon request from time to time the officers, directors, accountants, counsel and other advisors of the Company. The Company recognizes and confirms that Rodman (a) will use and rely on the Information, including any documents provided to investors in each Offering (the “Offering Documents” which shall include any Purchase Agreement (as defined hereunder), and on information available from generally recognized public sources in performing the services contemplated by this Agreement without having independently verified the same; (b) does not assume responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the Offering Documents or the Information and such other information; and (c) will not make an appraisal of any of the assets or liabilities of the Company. Upon reasonable request, the Company will meet with Rodman or its representatives to discuss all information relevant for disclosure in the Offering Documents and will cooperate in any investigation undertaken by Rodman thereof, including any document included or incorporated by reference therein. At each Offering, at the request of Rodman, the Company shall deliver such legal letters (including, without limitation, negative assurance letters), opinions, comfort letters, officers’ and secretary certificates and good standing certificates, all in form and substance satisfactory to Rodman and its counsel as is customary for such Offering. Rodman shall be a third party beneficiary of any representations, warranties, covenants and closing conditions made by the Company in any Offering Documents, including representations, warranties, covenants and closing conditions made to any investor in an Offering.

D. Related Agreements. At each Offering, the Company shall enter into the following additional agreements:

1. Underwritten Offering. If an Offering is an underwritten Offering, the Company and Rodman shall enter into a customary underwriting agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Rodman and its counsel.

2. Best Efforts Offering. If an Offering is on a best efforts basis, the sale of Securities to the investors in the Offering will be evidenced by a purchase agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) between the Company and such investors in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and Rodman. Rodman shall be a third party beneficiary with respect to the representations and warranties included in the Purchase Agreement. Prior to the signing of any Purchase Agreement, officers of the Company with responsibility for financial affairs will be available to answer inquiries from prospective investors.

3. Escrow and Settlement. In respect of each Offering, the Company and Rodman shall enter into an escrow agreement with a third party escrow agent, which may also be Rodman’s clearing agent, pursuant to which Rodman’s compensation and expenses shall be paid from the gross proceeds of the Securities sold. If the Offering is settled in whole or in part via delivery versus payment (“DVP”), Rodman shall arrange for its clearing agent to provide the funds to facilitate such settlement. The Company shall bear the cost of the escrow agent and shall reimburse Rodman for the actual out-of-pocket cost of such clearing agent settlement and financing, if any, which cost shall not exceed $10,000.

4. FINRA Amendments. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that Rodman determines that any of the terms provided for hereunder shall not comply with a FINRA rule, including but not limited to FINRA Rule 5110, then the Company shall agree to amend this Agreement (or include such revisions in the final underwriting agreement) in writing upon the request of Rodman to comply with any such rules; provided that any such amendments shall not provide for terms that are less favorable to the Company than are reflected in this Agreement.

E. Confidentiality. In the event of the consummation or public announcement of any Offering, Rodman shall have the right to disclose its participation in such Offering, including, without limitation, the Offering at its cost of “tombstone” advertisements in financial and other newspapers and journals.

F. Indemnity.

1. In connection with the Company’s engagement of Rodman as Offering agent, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Rodman and its affiliates, and the respective controlling persons, directors, officers, members, shareholders, agents and employees of any of the foregoing (collectively the “Indemnified Persons”), from and against any and all claims, actions, suits, proceedings (including those of shareholders), damages, liabilities and expenses incurred by any of them (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel), as incurred, (collectively a “Claim”), that are (A) related to or arise out of (i) any actions taken or omitted to be taken (including any untrue statements made or any statements omitted to be made) by the Company, or (ii) any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any Indemnified Person in connection with the Company’s engagement of Rodman, or (B) otherwise relate to or arise out of Rodman’s activities on the Company’s behalf under Rodman’s engagement, and the Company shall reimburse any Indemnified Person for all expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) as incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether or not in connection with pending or threatened litigation in which any Indemnified Person is a party. The Company will not, however, be responsible for any Claim that is finally judicially determined to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any person seeking indemnification for such Claim. The Company further agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability to the Company for or in connection with the Company’s engagement of Rodman except for any Claim incurred by the Company as a result of such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

2. The Company further agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Rodman, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened Claim in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such Claim), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional, irrevocable release of each Indemnified Person from any and all liability arising out of such Claim.

3. Promptly upon receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of any complaint or the assertion or institution of any Claim with respect to which indemnification is being sought hereunder, such Indemnified Person shall notify the Company in writing of such complaint or of such assertion or institution but failure to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company from any obligation it may have hereunder, except and only to the extent such failure results in the forfeiture or compromise by the Company of substantial rights and defenses. If the Company so elects or is requested by such Indemnified Person, the Company will assume the defense of such Claim, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person and the payment of reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. In the event, however, that legal counsel to such Indemnified Person reasonably determines that having common counsel would present such counsel with a conflict of interest or if the defendant in, or target of, any such Claim, includes an Indemnified Person and the Company, and legal counsel to such Indemnified Person reasonably concludes that there may be legal defenses available to it or other Indemnified Persons different from or in addition to those available to the Company, then such Indemnified Person may employ its own separate counsel to represent or defend him, her or it in any such Claim and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Company fails timely or diligently to defend, contest, or otherwise protect against any Claim, the relevant Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to defend, contest, compromise, settle, assert crossclaims, or counterclaims or otherwise protect against the same, and shall be fully indemnified by the Company therefor, including without limitation, for the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and all amounts paid as a result of such Claim or the compromise or settlement thereof. In addition, with respect to any Claim in which the Company assumes the defense, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to participate in such Claim and to retain his, her or its own counsel therefor at his, her or its own expense.

4. The Company agrees that if any indemnity sought by an Indemnified Person hereunder is held by a court to be unavailable for any reason then (whether or not Rodman is the Indemnified Person), the Company and Rodman shall contribute to the Claim for which such indemnity is held unavailable in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits to the Company, on the one hand, and Rodman on the other, in connection with Rodman’s engagement referred to above, subject to the limitation that in no event shall the amount of Rodman’s contribution to such Claim exceed the amount of fees actually received by Rodman from the Company pursuant to Rodman’s engagement. The Company hereby agrees that the relative benefits to the Company, on the one hand, and Rodman on the other, with respect to Rodman’s engagement shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (a) the total value paid or proposed to be paid or received by the Company pursuant to the applicable Offering (whether or not consummated) for which Rodman is engaged to render services bears to (b) the fee paid or proposed to be paid to Rodman in connection with such engagement.

5. The Company’s indemnity, reimbursement and contribution obligations under this Agreement (a) shall be in addition to, and shall in no way limit or otherwise adversely affect any rights that any Indemnified Party may have at law or at equity and (b) shall be effective whether or not the Company is at fault in any way.

G. Limitation of Engagement to the Company. The Company acknowledges that Rodman has been retained only by the Company, that Rodman is providing services hereunder as an independent contractor (and not in any fiduciary or agency capacity) and that the Company’s engagement of Rodman is not deemed to be on behalf of, and is not intended to confer rights upon, any shareholder, owner or partner of the Company or any other person not a party hereto as against Rodman or any of its affiliates, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, controlling persons (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), employees or agents. Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing by Rodman, no one other than the Company is authorized to rely upon this Agreement or any other statements or conduct of Rodman, and no one other than the Company is intended to be a beneficiary of this Agreement. The Company acknowledges that any recommendation or advice, written or oral, given by Rodman to the Company in connection with Rodman’s engagement is intended solely for the benefit and use of the Company’s management and directors in considering a possible Offering, and any such recommendation or advice is not on behalf of, and shall not confer any rights or remedies upon, any other person or be used or relied upon for any other purpose. Rodman shall not have the authority to make any commitment binding on the Company. The Company, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to reject any investor introduced to it by Rodman.

H. Limitation of Rodman’s Liability to the Company. Rodman and the Company further agree that neither Rodman nor any of its affiliates or any of its their respective officers, directors, controlling persons (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), employees or agents shall have any liability to the Company, its security holders or creditors, or any person asserting claims on behalf of or in the right of the Company (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort, for an act of negligence or otherwise) for any losses, fees, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses or equitable relief arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the services rendered hereunder, except for losses, fees, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses that arise out of or are based on any action of or failure to act by Rodman and that are finally judicially determined to have resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Rodman.

I. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be fully performed therein. Any disputes that arise under this Agreement, even after the termination of this Agreement, will be heard only in the state or federal courts located in the City of New York, State of New York. The parties hereto expressly agree to submit themselves to the jurisdiction of the foregoing courts in the City of New York, State of New York. The parties hereto expressly waive any rights they may have to contest the jurisdiction, venue or authority of any court sitting in the City and State of New York. In the event Rodman or any Indemnified Person is successful in any action, or suit against the Company, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the final judgment or award entered shall be entitled to have and recover from the Company the costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, including its reasonable attorneys’ fees. Any rights to trial by jury with respect to any such action, proceeding or suit are hereby waived by Rodman and the Company.
