(b)

   Rights Offering.  Promptly following the date on which the Prospectus Supplement is filed with the SEC, the Company shall distribute the Prospectus to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the Record Date and thereafter promptly commence the Rights Offering upon the terms set forth herein.  The Rights offering shall remain open for at least twenty (20) days, but no more than thirty (30) days, or such longer period as the Board of Directors of the Company determines is necessary to comply with applicable law.  Prior to the termination of this Agreement, the Company shall not amend any of the terms of the Rights Offering described in this Agreement (including, without limitation, in the recitals set forth above), terminate the Rights Offering or waive any material conditions to the closing of the Rights Offering, in each case, without the prior written consent of all of the Standby Purchasers.

If the number of Remaining Shares is greater than the number of First Standby Shares, and if following exercise by the Company’s stockholders of the Oversubscription Rights and after giving effect to all of the Standby Purchasers’ purchase of shares pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence there are Unsubscribed Shares available, each Standby Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Company, and the Company agrees to issue and sell to such Standby Purchaser (or its designee), at the Subscription Price, its Pro Rata Share of the lesser of such remaining Unsubscribed Shares and the Maximum Additional Standby Shares (the lesser of the foregoing (if any), together with the First Standby Shares that the Standby Purchasers are  obligated to purchase hereunder, the “Standby Shares”). Each Standby Purchaser acknowledges that the precise number of Standby Shares it will be obligated to purchase hereunder is yet to be determined, and could be its Pro Rata Portion of the full number of First Standby Shares and Maximum Additional Standby Shares. The offering of the Standby Shares to the Standby Purchasers is referred to herein as the “Standby Offering”.

(d)

   Amount of Standby Shares. During the Rights Offering, the Company will regularly advise each Standby Purchaser of the number of shares of Common Stock for which stockholders have exercised their Rights and will promptly respond to inquiries from any Standby Purchaser in that regard. Promptly, but in no event more than two (2) Business Days following the expiration of the Rights Offering, the Company will determine the number of Standby Shares and notify each Standby Purchaser in writing of the number of Standby Shares and the aggregate purchase price for such shares, determined as provided herein (the “Closing Purchase Amount”), as well as each Standby Purchaser’s Pro Rata Portion of the Standby Shares and Closing Purchase Amount.


(e)

   Closing. On the basis of the representations and warranties and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the closing of the purchase and sale of the Standby Shares (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Greenberg Traurig, LLP, Chicago, Illinois on the same day as the closing of the purchase and sale of the shares subscribed for in the Rights Offering, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable (and in any event within three (3) Business Days following such date) (as applicable, the “Closing Date”). At the Closing, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to each Standby Purchaser (or its designee) one or more certificates (or evidence of book-entry records) representing such Standby Purchaser’s Pro Rata Portion of the Standby Shares, and such Standby Purchaser shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Company, by wire transfer, such Standby Purchaser’s Pro Rata Portion of the Closing Purchase Amount.   


(f)

   Assignment to Affiliates.  Each Standby Purchaser shall have the right to arrange for one or more of its Affiliates (each, an “Affiliated Purchaser”) or one or more other Standby Purchasers to purchase any Standby Shares otherwise to be purchased by such Standby Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, by written notice to the Company at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, which notice shall be signed by the Standby Purchaser making such arrangement and each Affiliated Purchaser or other Standby Purchaser to which such arrangement relates, and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliated Purchaser or other Standby Purchaser of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 3. In no event will any such arrangement relieve any Standby Purchaser from its obligations under this Agreement (except that the obligation of the Standby Purchaser making such arrangement to purchase any of its Pro Rata Portion of the Standby Shares shall be reduced to the extent that Affiliated Purchasers or other Standby Purchasers purchase any of such Standby Shares at the Closing).


(g)

   Expense Reimbursement.  In consideration for each Standby Purchaser’s commitment to purchase the Standby Shares upon the terms set forth herein, the Company will promptly reimburse or pay, as the case may be, on the Closing Date, or if this Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing Date, within two Business Days following such termination, the out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such Standby Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, the Rights Offering, the Standby Offering, the Prospectus, and any subsequent registration statement, prospectus or prospectus supplement covering the resale of the Standby Shares, the commitment to purchase the Standby Shares hereunder and the negotiation and execution of this Agreement or any other document or instruments contemplated hereby), including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to each Standby Purchaser (collectively, “Transaction Expenses”). The provision for the payment of the Transaction Expenses is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without this provision no Standby Purchaser would have entered into this Agreement.


(h)

   No Oversubscription.  Without limiting the rights of the Standby Purchasers hereunder (including, without limitation, the right to purchase the First Standby Shares or the Maximum Additional Standby Shares), each Standby Purchaser agrees that it will not exercise any of its Oversubscription Rights in the Rights Offering.

Covenants.


(a)

   SEC Filings. The Company agrees, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company is advised or obtains knowledge thereof, to advise the Standby Purchasers of (i) the issuance by the Commission of any stop order, or of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding, suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on the Registration Statement or any order preventing or suspending the use of any prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in connection with the Rights Offering, (ii) the issuance by any state securities commission of any notice of any proceedings for the suspension of the qualification of the shares of Common Stock for offering or sale in any jurisdiction  or of the initiation, or the threatening, of any  proceeding for such purpose, or (iii) any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or for additional information. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such order or the imposition of any such suspension and, if any such order is issued or suspension is imposed, to obtain the withdrawal thereof as promptly as possible.



8




(b)

   Information About Standby Purchasers. Each Standby Purchaser agrees to furnish to the Company all information with respect to such Standby Purchaser that may be necessary for inclusion in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, or any prospectus or prospectus supplement to be filed pursuant thereto, and such information will not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.


(c)

   Public Announcements. Neither the Company nor any Standby Purchaser shall issue any public announcement, statement or  other disclosure with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior consent of the other party hereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except if such public announcement, statement or other disclosure is required by applicable law (including, in the case of each Standby Purchaser, Sections 13(d) and 16 of the Exchange Act) or applicable stock market regulations, in which case the disclosing party shall consult in advance with respect to such disclosure with the other parties to the extent reasonably practicable.  The Company represents, warrants and covenants to each Standby Purchaser that no public announcement made by or on behalf of the Company relating to the Rights Offering contained or will contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated in such public announcement or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.


(d)

   NASDAQ Listing. The Company shall cause the shares of Common Stock issued to the Standby Purchasers hereunder or otherwise in the Rights Offering to be listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market.


(e)

   Operations. The Company will, and will cause its subsidiaries to, operate the Company’s business (including the business of the Company’s subsidiaries) in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice through the Closing Date.  Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall not, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries not to: (i) issue, grant, deliver or sell any capital stock, equity security, interests, rights to purchase, warrants, options, participations or other equivalents of or interests in (however designated) its capital stock (other than with respect to (A) the issuance of the Rights and the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise thereof, (B) the issuance of the Standby Shares, (C) the granting of options or other equity awards under the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan and (D) the issuance of shares upon the exercise of options previously granted under the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan), (ii) effect any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, recapitalization or similar event with respect to the Common Stock, (iii) make any amendments to its organizational documents, (iv) sell, lease or otherwise dispose of a material amount of assets or securities, including by merger, consolidation, asset sale or other business combination, other than sales of assets in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice; (v) make any material acquisitions, by purchase or other acquisition of shares or other equity interests, or by merger, consolidation or other business combination, or material purchase of any property or assets, to or from any Person; (vi) adopt a plan of complete or partial liquidation or resolutions providing for a complete or partial liquidation, dissolution, restructuring, recapitalization or other reorganization, or (vii) approve, agree or commit to do, or set a record date for, any of the foregoing.


(f)

   Lock-Up. Each Standby Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Company, during the period commencing on the Closing Date and continuing for a period of six months thereafter, such Standby Purchaser shall not (i) sell, assign, transfer (including by operation of law), incur any liens, charges, security interests, options, claims, mortgages, pledges, proxies, voting trusts or agreements, obligations, understandings or arrangements or other restrictions on title or transfer of any nature whatsoever, dispose of or otherwise encumber (each, a “Transfer”), (b) make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or (c) enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a Transfer of, any of the Standby Shares.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Standby Purchaser may (a) transfer Standby Shares (i) as a bona fide gift or gifts, or by will or intestacy, or (ii) to (x) any family partnership or trust for the benefit of Donald R. Wilson and/or one or more members of his immediate family or (y) any affiliate of such Standby Purchaser or any charitable organization formed by such Standby Purchaser or any of its affiliates, provided, in any such case, that the transferee agrees to be bound in writing by the terms of this paragraph prior to such transfer; (b) transfer Standby Shares to partners, members, stockholders or beneficiaries of the Standby Purchaser, provided that (y) the transferee agrees to be bound in writing by the terms of this Section 7(f) prior to such transfer and (z) such transfer does not involve a disposition for value.  Furthermore, the restrictions contained in this Section 7(f) shall not apply to any transfers, sales, tenders or other dispositions of Standby Shares pursuant to a tender offer for Common Stock of the Company or any merger, consolidation or other business combination involving the Company or its securities.


(g)

   Rule 144. For a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date and thereafter until there are no “Registrable Securities” (as such term shall be defined in the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below)), the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to timely file all reports and other documents required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder (or, if the Company is not required



9



to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Standby Purchaser, make publicly available such information as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act), and will use commercially reasonable efforts to take such further action as such Standby Purchaser may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Standby Purchasers to sell Standby Shares without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 of the Securities Act.


(h)

   Registration Rights Agreement. At or prior to the Closing, the Company shall enter into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Standby Purchasers, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Standby Purchasers, pursuant to which the Company shall agree to, as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, register all of the shares held by the Standby Purchasers and/or their respective Affiliates, including all shares of Common Stock held by the Standby Purchasers and/or their respective Affiliates as of the date hereof.  Such Agreement shall provide for demand and “piggyback” registration rights, including with respect to underwritten offerings.


(i)

   Satisfaction of Closing Conditions.  The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to timely satisfy each of the conditions to be satisfied by it as provided in Section 5 of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts, and shall cause its Affiliates to use their reasonable best efforts, to, take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary to consummate the Rights Agreement as provided in this Agreement and the Prospectus Supplement.


(j)

   Legend Removal.  Certificates evidencing any of the Standby Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 3(h) hereof), (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such Standby Shares is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Standby Shares, or in the event a Standby Purchaser provides customary representations and covenants that such Standby Shares are being sold, pursuant to Rule 144, (iii) if such Standby Shares are eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 144 without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions thereunder, or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission).  The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent if required by the transfer agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder.  The Company agrees that at such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 7(j) , it will, no later than the earlier of (X) three (3) business days and (Y) the number of business days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined below) following the delivery by a Standby Purchaser to the Company or the transfer agent of a certificate representing Standby Shares bearing a restrictive legend (the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Standby Purchaser a certificate representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends.  The Company shall not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the transfer agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 3(h) hereof.  Certificates for Standby Shares subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the transfer agent to a Standby Purchaser by crediting the account of such Standby Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System (“DTC”) through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system as directed by such Standby Purchaser.  As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of business days, on the Company’s primary trading market with respect to the Common Stock (which as of the date of this Agreement is the NASDAQ Capital Market) as in effect on the date of delivery of a certificate representing the applicable Standby Shares (or the date of crediting such Standby Shares with DTC, as applicable), as the case may be, issued without a restrictive legend.


8.

Termination.


(a)

   By the Standby Purchasers. The Standby Purchasers may terminate this Agreement (i) if the Company materially breaches any of its representations and warranties or any of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement and such breach is not cured within five (5) Business Days following written notice to the Company, or (ii) in the event of an incurable failure of a condition to close that cannot be unilaterally waived by the Company.  Following the termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8(a), the Company shall not commence, effect or consummate the Rights Offering or a similar offering within six months of such termination without the prior written consent of the Standby Purchasers.


(b)

   By the Company. The Company may terminate this Agreement (i) in the event the Company, in its reasonable judgment, determines that it is not in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to proceed with the Rights Offering; (ii) if consummation of the Rights Offering or the Standby Offering is prohibited by applicable law, rules or regulations, or (iii) if a Standby Purchaser materially breaches any of its representations and warranties or any of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement and such breach is not cured within five (5) Business Days following written notice to the Standby Purchasers, or (iv) in the event of incurable failure of a condition to close that cannot be unilaterally waived by the Standby Purchasers; provided that, except in the case of a termination pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section 8(b), the Company shall not commence, effect or consummate the Rights Offering or a similar offering within six months of such termination without the prior written consent of the Standby Purchasers.



10




(c)

   Other. Either of the parties hereto may terminate this Agreement if the Closing has not occurred by the close of business on January 31, 2017 through no fault of the terminating party; provided that, the Company shall not commence or effect the Rights Offering or a similar offering within six months following such termination without the prior written consent of the Standby Purchasers. In addition, this Agreement shall terminate upon the parties’ mutual consent.


(d)

   Effect of Termination. The Company and each Standby Purchaser hereby agree that any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8 (other than termination by one party in the event of a breach of this Agreement by the other party or a misrepresentation of any of the statements made hereby by the other party), shall be without liability to the Company or any Standby Purchaser.


9.

Notices. All notices, communications and deliveries required or permitted by this Agreement shall be made in writing signed  by  the party making the same, shall specify the Section of this Agreement pursuant to which it is given or being made and shall be deemed given or made (a) on the date delivered if delivered in person, (b) on the next Business Day after it is transmitted if delivered by email (subject to absence of a message back to the sender of undeliverability); or (c) on the next Business Day after it is delivered, prepaid, to an overnight express delivery service that confirms to the sender delivery on such day, as follows:

10.

Indemnification, Contribution.


(a)

   Whether or not the Rights Offering, the Closing or the other transactions contemplated hereby are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the Company (in such capacity, the “Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Standby Purchaser and each Affiliated Purchaser, their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, members, managers, partners, employees, agents, advisors, controlling persons, heirs, trustees, beneficiaries, successors and assigns, as applicable (each, an “Indemnified Person”), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,



11



liabilities, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, joint or several (“Losses”) incurred by such Indemnified Person or to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject arising out of or in connection with any claim, challenge, litigation, investigation or proceeding (“Proceedings”) arising out of or relating to the Rights Offering, the Standby Offering, this Agreement, the Registration Statement, or the Prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto or the transactions contemplated by any of the foregoing and shall reimburse such Indemnified Persons for any reasonable legal fees and expenses or other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with investigating, responding to or defending any of the foregoing; provided that the foregoing indemnification will not apply to Losses to the extent that they resulted from (i) statements or omissions in the  Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto made in reliance upon or in conformity with information relating to such Indemnified Person furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person expressly for use in the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the material breach of this Agreement by a Standby Purchaser or an Affiliated Purchaser. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Person (except as set forth in the proviso to the immediately preceding section) or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and such Indemnified Person on the other hand as well as any relevant equitable considerations.


(b)

   Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any Proceedings with respect to which the Indemnified Person may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, such Indemnified Person will, if a claim is to be made hereunder against the Indemnifying Party in respect thereof, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the commencement thereof; provided that the omission so to notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have hereunder except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure. In case any such Proceedings are brought against any Indemnified Person and it notifies the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it may elect by written notice delivered to such Indemnified Person, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person; provided that if the defendants in any such Proceedings include both such Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Person shall have concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, such Indemnified Person shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such Proceedings on behalf of such Indemnified Person. Upon receipt of notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Person of its election so to assume the defense of such Proceedings and approval by such Indemnified Person of counsel, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Person for expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person thereafter in connection with the defense thereof (other than reasonable costs of investigation) unless (i) such Indemnified Person shall have employed separate counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one firm of counsel, plus local counsel, in any jurisdiction representing the Indemnified Person), (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person to represent such Indemnified Person within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the Proceedings or (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall have authorized in writing the employment of counsel for such Indemnified Person.


11.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding among the Standby Purchasers and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.


12.

Third Party Beneficiary. This Agreement is for the benefit only of the parties hereto, and for purposes of Section 10 the Indemnified Persons, and no other party may assert or enforce any rights derived from this agreement.


13.

Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware (other than its rules of conflict of laws to the extent the application of the laws of another jurisdiction would be required thereby).


14.

Amendments. This Agreement may be modified or amended only with the written consent of the Company and all of the Standby Purchasers.


15.

Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid under the applicable law of any jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.


16.

Modification of Rights Offering. The Company may (a) waive irregularities in the manner of the exercise of the Rights, or (b) waive conditions relating to the method of the exercise of the Rights, in each case without the consent of the Standby Purchasers.



12




17.

Assignment.  Except as provided Section 2(f) of this Agreement, neither party hereto shall have the right to assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party.


18.

Counterparts; Electronic Delivery.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument.  Electronic transmission of a “pdf” of a counterpart signature page hereto shall have the same effect as personal delivery of a manually executed original signature page hereto.


19.

Interpretative Matters.  Unless the context otherwise requires, (i) all references to Sections, Schedules, Annexes or Exhibits are to Sections, Schedules, Annexes or Exhibits contained in or attached to this Agreement, (ii) each accounting term not otherwise defined in this Agreement has the meaning assigned to it in accordance with GAAP, (iii) words in the singular or plural include the singular and plural and pronouns stated in either the masculine, the feminine or neuter gender shall include the masculine, feminine and neuter, (iv) the use of the word “including” in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than limitation and (v) the word “or” shall not be exclusive.


21.

Independent Nature of Standby Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights.  The obligations of each Standby Purchaser under this Agreement and with respect to the Standby Offering  are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Standby Purchaser, and no Standby Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Standby Purchaser under any this Agreement or with respect to the Standby Offering.  The decision of each Standby Purchaser to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement or in the Rights Offering has been made by such Standby Purchaser independently of any other Standby Purchaser and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company which may have been made or given by any other Standby Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other Standby Purchaser, and no Standby Purchaser or any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any other Standby Purchaser (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken by any Standby Purchaser pursuant thereto or with respect to the Rights Offering, shall be deemed to constitute the Standby Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Standby Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Rights Offering.  Each Standby Purchaser acknowledges that no other Standby Purchaser has acted as agent for such Standby Purchaser in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no other Standby Purchaser will be acting as agent of such Standby Purchaser in connection with monitoring its investment hereunder.  Each Standby Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Standby Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding or action for such purpose.
