Subject to the terms and conditions herein contained, the Issuer proposes to issue and sell to the Initial Purchasers $80,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 8 1/2% Senior Notes due 2015 (the “Notes”).

The Notes, the Guarantees and the Subordinated Guarantee are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities”. The Securities are to be issued under an indenture (as supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”) dated as of September 29, 2005 by and among the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Subordinated

The Securities will be offered and sold to the Initial Purchasers without being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), in reliance on exemptions therefrom.

In connection with the sale of the Securities, the Issuer has prepared a preliminary offering memorandum dated April 12, 2006, including information incorporated therein by reference (the “Preliminary Memorandum”) and has prepared a Pricing Supplement (the “Pricing Supplement”) dated April 12, 2006, which is attached hereto as Annex I.

As used herein, “Offering Memorandum” shall mean, with respect to any date or time referred to in this Agreement, the Preliminary Memorandum, as supplemented by the Pricing Supplement, in the most recent form that has been prepared and delivered by the Issuer to the Initial Purchasers in connection with their solicitation of offers to purchase Securities prior to the time this Agreement is executed by the parties hereto (the “Time of Execution”).

The Initial Purchasers and their direct and indirect transferees of the Securities will be entitled to the benefits of the Registration Rights Agreement to be dated as of the Closing Date (as defined) (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor will agree, among other things, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), under the circumstances set forth therein, (i) a registration statement under the Act (the “Exchange Offer Registration Statement”), relating to the 8 1/2% Senior Notes due 2015 of the Issuer (the “Exchange Notes”) to be offered in exchange (the “Exchange Offer”) for the Notes, and (ii) as and to the extent required by the Registration Rights Agreement, a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Act (the “Shelf Registration Statement” and, together with the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the “Registration Statements”), relating to the resale by certain holders of the Notes, and to cause such Registration Statements to be declared effective in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the parties hereto will enter into a purchase agreement with respect to $20,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes to be issued under the Indenture (the “Second Purchase Agreement” and collectively, with the Purchase Agreement, the “Purchase Agreements”).

5.             Covenants of the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor. The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor covenant and agree with each of the Initial Purchasers that:

(a)           Until the later of (i) the completion of distribution of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers and (ii) the Closing Date, the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor will not amend or supplement the Offering Memorandum unless the Initial Purchasers shall previously have been advised and furnished a copy

13

for a reasonable period of time prior to the proposed amendment or supplement and as to which the Initial Purchasers shall have given their consent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed. The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor will promptly, upon the reasonable request of the Initial Purchasers or counsel for the Initial Purchasers, make any amendments or supplements to the Offering Memorandum that may be necessary or advisable in connection with the resale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers.

(b)           The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor will cooperate with the Initial Purchasers in arranging for the qualification of the Securities for offering and sale under the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of such jurisdictions as the Initial Purchasers may reasonably designate and will continue such qualifications in effect for as long as may be necessary to complete the resale of the Securities; provided, however, that in connection therewith, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor shall not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or to execute a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction or subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.

(c)           If, at any time prior to the completion of the distribution by the Initial Purchasers of the Securities or the Exchange Notes, any event occurs or information becomes known as a result of which the Offering Memorandum as then amended or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact, or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if for any other reason it is necessary at any time to amend or supplement the Offering Memorandum to comply with applicable law, the Issuer will promptly notify the Initial Purchasers thereof and will prepare, at the expense of the Issuer, an amendment or supplement to the Offering Memorandum that corrects such statement or omission or effects such compliance.

(d)           The Issuer will, without charge, provide to the Initial Purchasers and to counsel for the Initial Purchasers as many copies of the Offering Memorandum, Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto as the Initial Purchasers may reasonably request.

(e)           The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor will apply the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities as set forth under “Use of Proceeds” in the Offering Memorandum.

(f)            Prior to the Closing Date, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor will furnish to the Initial Purchasers, as soon as they have been prepared in the ordinary course of business, a copy of any unaudited interim financial statements of Williams Scotsman International for any period subsequent to

14

the period covered by the most recent financial statements appearing in the Offering Memorandum.

(g)           None of the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Subordinated Guarantor or any of their Affiliates will sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any “security” (as defined in the Act) which could be integrated with the sale of the Securities in a manner which would require the registration under the Act of the Securities.

(h)           None of the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor will, nor will the Issuer permit any of the Subsidiaries to, engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used in Regulation D under the Act) in connection with the offering of the Securities or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Act.

(i)            For so long as any of the Securities remain outstanding, Williams Scotsman International will make available at its expense, upon request, to any holder of such Securities and any prospective purchasers thereof, the information specified in Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Act, unless Williams Scotsman International is then subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

(j)            The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor will use their commercially reasonable efforts to (i) permit the Securities to be designated for trading in the Private Offerings, Resales and Trading through Automated Linkages market (the “PORTAL Market”) of the NASD and (ii) permit the Securities to be eligible for clearance and settlement through The Depository Trust Company.

6.             Expenses. The Issuer agrees to pay all costs and expenses incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, whether or not the transactions contemplated herein are consummated or this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 11 hereof, including all costs and expenses incident to (i) the printing of documents with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offering Memorandum, Final Memorandum and any amendment or supplement thereto, and any “Blue Sky” memoranda, (ii) all arrangements relating to the delivery to the Initial Purchasers of copies of the foregoing documents, (iii) the fees and disbursements of the counsel, the accountants and any other experts or advisors retained by the Issuer, (iv) preparation (including printing), issuance and delivery to the Initial Purchasers of the Securities, (v) the qualification of the Securities under state securities and “Blue Sky” laws, including filing fees and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Initial Purchasers relating thereto, (vi) expenses of the Issuer in connection with any meetings with the Issuer and prospective investors in the Securities, (vii) fees and expenses of the Trustee, including reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel, (viii) all expenses and listing fees incurred in connection with the application for quotation of the Securities on the PORTAL Market and (ix) any fees charged by investment rating agencies

15

for the rating of the Securities. If the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Initial Purchasers set forth in Section 7 hereof is not satisfied, because this Agreement is terminated or because of any failure, refusal or inability on the part of the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor to perform all obligations and satisfy all conditions on their part to be performed or satisfied hereunder (other than solely by reason of a default by the Initial Purchasers of their obligations hereunder after all conditions hereunder have been satisfied in accordance herewith), the Issuer agrees to promptly reimburse the Initial Purchasers upon demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and charges of Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP, counsel for the Initial Purchasers) that shall have been incurred by the Initial Purchasers in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities.

Each of the Initial Purchasers agrees with the Issuer that (i) it and each of its affiliates has not and will not solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the Securities by any form of general solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used in Regulation D under the Act) or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Act; and (ii) it and each of its affiliates has and will solicit offers for the Securities only from, and will offer the Securities only to (A) in the case of offers inside the United States, persons whom the Initial Purchasers reasonably believe to be QIBs or, if any such person is buying for one or more institutional accounts for which such person is acting as fiduciary or agent, only when such person has represented to the Initial Purchasers that each such account is a QIB, to whom notice has been given that such sale or delivery is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, and, in each case, in transactions under Rule 144A and (B) in the case of offers outside the United States, to persons other than U.S. persons (“foreign purchasers,” which term shall include dealers or other professional fiduciaries in the United States acting on a discretionary basis for foreign beneficial owners (other than an estate or trust)); provided, however, that, in the case of this clause (B), in purchasing such Securities such persons are deemed to have represented and agreed as provided under the caption “Transfer Restrictions” contained in the Offering Memorandum.

19

(b)           Each of the Initial Purchasers represents and warrants with respect to offers and sales of securities by them outside the United States that (i) it and each of its affiliates has complied and will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in each jurisdiction in which it acquires, offers, sells or delivers Securities or has in its possession or distributes any Offering Memorandum or any such other material, in all cases at its own expense; (ii) the Securities have not been and will not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons except in accordance with Regulation S under the Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act; (iii) it and each of its affiliates has offered the Securities and will offer and sell the Securities (A) as part of its distribution at any time and (B) otherwise until 40 days after the later of the commencement of the offering and the Closing Date, only in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S and, accordingly, neither such Initial Purchaser nor any persons acting on its behalf have engaged or will engage in any directed selling efforts (within the meaning of Regulation S) with respect to the Securities, and any such persons have complied and will comply with the offering restrictions requirement of Regulation S; and (iv) it agrees that, at or prior to confirmation of sales of the Securities, it will have sent to each distributor, dealer or person receiving a selling concession, fee or other remuneration that purchases Securities from it during the restricted period a confirmation or notice to substantially the following effect:

“The Securities covered hereby have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and may not be offered and sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (i) as part of the distribution of the Securities at any time or (ii) otherwise until 40 days after the later of the commencement of the offering and the closing date of the offering, except in either case in accordance with Regulation S (or Rule 144A if available) under the Securities Act. Terms used above have the meaning given to them in Regulation S.”

Terms used in this Section 8(b) and not defined in this Agreement have the meanings given to them in Regulation S.

9.             Indemnification and Contribution. (a)  The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless the Initial Purchasers, their affiliates and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which any Initial Purchaser or such controlling person

20

may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon:

(i)            any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto or any application or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, executed by the Issuer or based upon written information furnished by or on behalf of the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Securities under the securities or “Blue Sky” laws thereof or filed with any securities association or securities exchange (each an “Application”); or

(ii)           the omission or alleged omission to state, in any Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto or any Application, 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,

and will reimburse, as incurred, the Initial Purchasers, each such affiliate and each such controlling person for any reasonable legal or other reasonable expenses incurred by the Initial Purchasers, such affiliate or such controlling person in connection with investigating, defending against or appearing as a third-party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Offering Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto or any Application in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning the Initial Purchasers furnished to the Issuer by the Initial Purchasers specifically for use therein; and provided, further, that the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor will not be liable to any Initial Purchaser or any person controlling such Initial Purchaser with respect to any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any Preliminary Memorandum that is corrected in the Offering Memorandum if the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability purchased Securities from such Initial Purchaser but was not sent or given a copy of the Offering Memorandum in any case where such delivery of the Offering Memorandum was required by the Act, unless such failure to deliver the Offering Memorandum was a result of noncompliance by the Company with Section 5 hereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor may otherwise have to the indemnified parties. The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor shall not be liable under this Section 9 for any settlement of any claim or action effected without their prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(b)           The Initial Purchasers agree, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor, their respective

21

directors, officers and each person, if any, who controls the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Offering Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto or any Application, or (ii) the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in any Offering Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto or any Application, or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning such Initial Purchaser, furnished to the Issuer by such Initial Purchaser specifically for use therein; and subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, will reimburse, as incurred, any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending against or appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Initial Purchasers may otherwise have to the indemnified parties. The Initial Purchasers shall not be liable under this Section 9 for any settlement of any claim or action effected without their consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

The Issuer shall not, without the prior written consent of the Initial Purchasers (which shall not be reasonably withheld or delayed), effect any settlement or compromise of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Initial Purchaser is or could have been a party, or indemnity could have been sought hereunder by any Initial Purchaser, unless such settlement (A) includes an unconditional written release of the Initial Purchasers, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and for where indemnity could be sought hereunder and (B) does not include any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser.

(c)           Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action for which such indemnified party is entitled to indemnification under this Section 9, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof in writing; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party

22

from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraphs (a) and (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, 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 wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, or (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after receipt by the indemnifying party of notice of the institution of such action, then, in each such case, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties and such indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to defend such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and approval by such indemnified party of counsel appointed to defend such action, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 9 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that in connection with such action the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the reasonable expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) in any one action or separate but substantially similar actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, designated by the Initial Purchasers in the case of paragraph (a) of this Section 9 or the Issuer in the case of paragraph (b) of this Section 9, representing the indemnified parties under such paragraph (a) or paragraph (b), as the case may be, who are parties to such action or actions) or (ii) the indemnifying party has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party. After such notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party, the indemnifying party will not be liable for the costs and expenses of any settlement of such action effected by such indemnified party without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), unless such indemnified party waived in writing its rights under this Section 9, in which case the indemnified party may effect such a settlement without such consent.

(d)           In circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 9 is unavailable to, or insufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect

23

thereof), each indemnifying party, in order to provide for just and equitable contribution, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions or alleged statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof). The relative benefits received by the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor on the one hand and any Initial Purchaser on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Issuer bear to the total discounts and commissions received by such Initial Purchaser. The relative fault of the parties 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 Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor on the one hand, or such Initial Purchaser on the other, the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission or alleged statement or omission, and any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. The Issuer, the Guarantors, the Subordinated Guarantor and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph (d), no Initial Purchaser shall be obligated to make contributions hereunder that in the aggregate exceed the total discounts, commissions and other compensation received by such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement, less the aggregate amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of the untrue or alleged untrue statements or the omissions or alleged omissions to state a material fact, and no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this paragraph (d) each affiliate of an Initial Purchaser and each person, if any, who controls an Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Initial Purchasers, and each director of the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor, each officer of the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor and each person, if any, who controls the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor.

10.           Survival Clause. The representations, warranties, agreements, covenants, indemnities and other statements of the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor, their officers and the Initial Purchasers set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor, any of their officers or directors, the Initial Purchasers or any controlling person referred to in Section 9 hereof and (ii) delivery of and payment for the Securities. The respective agreements, covenants, indemnities and other statements set forth in Sections 6, 7, 9 and 16 hereof shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

11.           Default of One or More of the Initial Purchasers.

(a)           If any Initial Purchaser shall default in its obligation to purchase the Securities which it has agreed to purchase hereunder, the Initial Purchasers may in their discretion arrange for themselves or another party or other parties to purchase such Securities on the terms contained herein. If within forty-eight hours after such default by any Initial Purchaser the Initial Purchasers do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Issuer shall be entitled to a further period of forty-eight hours within which to procure another party or other parties satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers to purchase such Securities on such terms. In the event that, within the respective prescribed periods, the Initial Purchasers notify the Issuer that they have so arranged for the purchase of such Securities, or the Issuer notifies the Initial Purchasers that it has so arranged for the purchase of such Securities, the Initial Purchasers or the Issuer shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date for a period of not more than seven business days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Offering Memorandum, or in any other documents or arrangements, and the Issuer agrees to prepare promptly any amendments to the Offering Memorandum which in the Initial Purchasers’ opinion may thereby be made necessary. The term “Initial Purchaser” as used in this Agreement shall include any person substituted under this Section with like effect as if such person had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Securities.

(b)           If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers by the Initial Purchasers and the Issuer as provided in subsection (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities which remains unpurchased does not exceed one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities, then the Issuer shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Initial Purchaser to purchase the principal amount of Securities which such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder and, in addition, to require each non-defaulting Initial Purchaser to purchase its pro rata share (based on the principal amount of Securities which such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Securities of such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers for which such arrangements have not been made; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability for its default.

25

(c)           If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers by the Initial Purchasers and the Issuer as provided in subsection (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of Securities which remains unpurchased exceeds one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities, or if the Issuer shall not exercise the right described in subsection (b) above to require non-defaulting Initial Purchasers to purchase Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers, then this Agreement shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or the Issuer, except for the expenses to be borne by the Issuer and the Initial Purchasers as provided in Section 6 hereof and the indemnification and contribution agreements in Section 9 hereof; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability for its default.

12.           Termination.

(a)           This Agreement may be terminated in the sole discretion of the Initial Purchasers by notice to the Issuer given prior to the Closing Date in the event that the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor shall have failed, refused or been unable to perform all obligations and satisfy all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior thereto or, if at or prior to the Closing Date:

(i)            either the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor shall have sustained any loss or interference with respect to its businesses or properties from fire, flood, hurricane, accident or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any strike, labor dispute, slow down or work stoppage or any legal or governmental proceeding, which loss or interference, in the reasonable judgment of the Initial Purchasers, has had or has a Material Adverse Effect, or there shall have been, in the sole judgment of the Initial Purchasers, any event or development that, individually or in the aggregate, has or could be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect (including without limitation a change in control of any of the Issuer or any Subsidiary), except in each case as described in the Offering Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto);

(ii)           trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ National Market shall have been suspended or minimum or maximum prices shall have been established on any such exchange or market;

(iii)          a banking moratorium shall have been declared by New York or United States authorities or a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States;

(iv)          there shall have been (A) an outbreak or escalation of hostilities between the United States and any foreign power, or (B) an outbreak or escalation of any

26

other insurrection or armed conflict involving the United States or any other national or international calamity or emergency, or (C) any material change in the financial markets of the United States which, in the case of (A), (B) or (C) above and in the sole judgment of the Initial Purchasers, makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or the delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Offering Memorandum; or

(v)           any securities of the Issuer shall have been downgraded or placed on any “watch list” for possible downgrading by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization.

17.           No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. Each of the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction each Initial Purchaser is acting solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor, (iii) no Initial Purchaser has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Initial Purchaser has advised or is currently advising the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor on other matters) or any other obligation to the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Subordinated Guarantor except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement and (iv) the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Subordinated Guarantor have consulted their own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.
