Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at a purchase price of $5.05 per share during the period beginning on the Effective Date (as hereinafter defined) and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date. The foregoing shares of Common Stock and Warrants are referred to herein as the “Firm Securities.” The Underwriters, severally and not jointly, agree to purchase from the Company the number of Firm Securities set forth opposite their respective names on Schedule I attached hereto and made a part hereof.

The hour and date of delivery and payment for the Firm Securities are called the “Closing Date.” Payment for the Firm Securities shall be made on the Closing Date by wire transfer in immediately available funds, payable to the order of the Company upon delivery to you of certificates (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Underwriters) representing the Firm Securities for the account of the Underwriters. The certificates representing the Firm Securities shall be registered in such name or names and in such authorized denominations as the Representative may request in writing at least two full business days prior to the Closing Date. The Company will permit the Representative to examine and package the Firm Securities for delivery at least one full business day prior to the Closing Date. The Company shall not be obligated to sell or deliver the Firm Securities except upon tender of payment by the Representative for all the Firm Securities.

The Underwriters will not be under any obligation to purchase any Option Securities prior to the exercise of the Over-allotment Option.

The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) a registration statement on Form S-1 and an amendment or amendments thereto on Form S-1 (No. ), including any related preliminary prospectus (“Preliminary Prospectus”), for the registration of the Public Securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Act”), which registration statement and amendment or amendments have been prepared by the Company in conformity with the requirements of the Act, and the rules and regulations (“Regulations”) of the Commission under the Act. Except as the context may otherwise require, such registration statement, as amended, on file with the Commission at the time the registration statement becomes effective (including the prospectus, financial statements, schedules, exhibits and all other documents filed as a part thereof or incorporated therein and all information deemed to be a part thereof as of such time pursuant to paragraph (b) of Rule 430A of the Regulations), is hereinafter called the “Registration Statement,” and the form of the final prospectus dated the Effective Date or such later date as may be determined by the Representative (or, if applicable, the form of final prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 of the Regulations), is hereinafter called the “Prospectus.” The Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission on the date hereof.

2.1.2 Pursuant to the Exchange Act. The Company has filed with the Commission a registration statement on Form 8-A (No. ) providing for the registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), of the Common Stock and Warrants. Such registration of the Common Stock and Warrants has been declared effective by the Commission on the date hereof.

2.2 No Stop Orders, Etc. Neither the Commission nor, to the Company’s knowledge, any state regulatory authority has issued any order preventing or suspending the use of any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or has instituted or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened to institute any proceedings with respect to such an order.

2.3 Disclosures in Registration Statement.

2.3.1 Securities Act Representation. At the time the Registration Statement becomes effective and at the Closing Date and the Option Closing Date, if any, the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, and will conform in all material respects to the requirements of the Act and the Regulations; neither the Registration Statement nor the Prospectus, nor any amendment or supplement thereto, on such dates, will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or will omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. When any Preliminary Prospectus was first filed with the Commission (whether filed as part of the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto or pursuant to Rule 424(a) of the Regulations) and when any amendment thereof or supplement thereto was first filed with the Commission, such Preliminary Prospectus and any amendments thereof and supplements thereto complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Act and the Regulations. The representation and warranty made in this Section 2.3.1 does not apply to statements made or statements omitted in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished (or not furnished in the case of an omission) to the Company with respect to the Underwriters by the Representative expressly for use in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto.

2.3.2 Disclosure of Contracts. The description in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus of contracts and other documents is accurate in all material respects and presents fairly the information required to be disclosed and there are no contracts or other documents required to be described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to be filed with the Commission as exhibits to the Registration Statement that have not been so described or filed. Each contract or other instrument (however characterized or described) to which the Company is a party or by which its property or business is or may be bound or affected and that is (i) referred to in the Prospectus, or (ii) material to the Company’s business, has been duly and validly executed by the Company and, to the Company’s knowledge, the other parties thereto, is in full force and effect and is enforceable against the Company and, to the Company’s knowledge, the other parties thereto in accordance with its terms, except (x) as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent transfer, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, (y) as enforceability of any indemnification or contribution provision may be limited under the federal and state securities laws, and (z) that the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and

other forms of equitable relief may be subject to the equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought. None of such contracts or instruments has been assigned by the Company, and neither the Company nor, to the Company’s knowledge, any other party is in default thereunder and, to the Company’s knowledge, no event has occurred that, with the lapse of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default thereunder. None of the material provisions of such contracts or instruments violates or will result in a violation of any existing applicable law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree of any governmental agency or court having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its assets or businesses, including, without limitation, those relating to environmental laws and regulations.

2.3.3 Prior Securities Transactions. No securities of the Company have been sold by the Company or by or on behalf of, or for the benefit of, any person or persons controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Company within the three years prior to the date hereof, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement.

BDO has not, during the periods covered by the financial statements included in the Prospectus, provided to the Company any prohibited non-audit services, as such term is used in Section 10A(g) of the Exchange Act.

2.6 Financial Statements. The financial statements, together with the notes thereto and supporting schedules included in the Registration Statement and Prospectus, present fairly the financial position and the results of operations of the Company at the dates and for the periods to which they apply; and such financial statements have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied throughout the periods involved; and the supporting schedules, if any, included in the Registration Statement present fairly the information required to be stated therein.

The outstanding options and warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms. The authorized Common Stock and outstanding options and warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock conform in all material respects to all statements relating thereto contained in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

2.23 Relations With Employees.

2.23.1 Employee Matters. The Company is in compliance in all material respects with all federal, state and local laws and regulations respecting the employment of its employees and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours relating thereto. To the Company’s knowledge, there are no pending investigations involving the Company by the U.S. Department of Labor, or any other governmental agency responsible for the enforcement of such federal, state and local laws and regulations. To the Company’s knowledge, there is no unfair labor practice charge or complaint against the Company pending before the National Labor Relations Board or any strike, picketing, boycott, dispute, slowdown or stoppage pending or threatened against or involving the Company or any predecessor entity, and none has ever occurred. To the Company’s knowledge, no question concerning representation exists respecting the employees of the Company and no collective bargaining agreement or modification thereof is currently being negotiated by the Company. No grievance or arbitration proceeding is pending under any expired or existing collective bargaining agreements of the Company, if any.

2.23.2 Employee Benefit Plans. Other than as set forth in the Registration Statement, the Company neither maintains, sponsors nor contributes to, nor is it required to contribute to, any program or arrangement that is an “employee pension benefit plan,” an “employee welfare benefit plan,” or a, “multi-employer plan” as such terms are defined in Sections 3(2), 3(1) and 3(37), respectively, of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) (“ERISA Plans”). The Company does not maintain or contribute to, and has at no time maintained or contributed to, a defined benefit plan, as defined in Section 3(35) of ERISA. No ERISA Plan (or any trust created thereunder) has engaged in a “prohibited transaction” within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”), that could subject the Company to any material tax penalty for prohibited transactions and that has not adequately been corrected. Each ERISA Plan is in compliance with all material reporting, disclosure and other requirements of the Code and ERISA as they relate to any such ERISA Plan. Determination letters have been received from the Internal Revenue Service with respect to each ERISA Plan that is intended to comply with Code Section 401(a), stating that such ERISA Plan and the attendant trust are qualified thereunder. The Company has never completely or partially withdrawn from a “multi-employer plan.”

5.1.1 General. Subject to the conditions set forth below, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Underwriters, their respective directors, officers and employees and each person, if any, who controls any such Underwriter (“controlling person”) within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including but not limited to any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, whether arising out of any action between any of the Underwriters and the Company or between any of the Underwriters and any third party or otherwise) to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or any other statute or at common law or otherwise or under the laws of foreign countries, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in (i) the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (as from time to time each may be amended and supplemented); (ii) in any post-effective amendment or amendments or any new registration statement and prospectus in which is included securities of the Company issued or issuable upon exercise of the Representative’s Purchase Option; or (iii) any application or other document or written communication (in this Section 5 collectively called “application”) executed by the Company or based upon written information furnished by the Company in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Units under the securities laws thereof or filed with the Commission, any state securities commission or agency, Nasdaq or any securities exchange; or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of 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, unless such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished (or not furnished in the case of an omission) to the Company with respect to an Underwriter by or on behalf of such Underwriter expressly for use in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or in any application, as the case may be. The Company agrees promptly to notify the Representative of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against the Company or any of its officers, directors or controlling persons in connection with the issue and sale of the Securities or in connection with the Registration Statement or Prospectus.

5.1.2 Procedure. If any action is brought against an Underwriter or controlling person in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Company pursuant to Section 5.1.1, such Underwriter shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the institution of such action and the Company shall assume the defense of such action, including the employment and fees of counsel (subject to the reasonable approval of such Underwriter) and

payment of actual expenses. Such Underwriter or controlling person shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Underwriter or such controlling person unless (i) the employment of such counsel at the expense of the Company shall have been authorized in writing by the Company in connection with the defense of such action, or (ii) the Company shall not have employed counsel to have charge of the defense of such action, or (iii) such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from or additional to those available to the Company (in which case the Company shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which events the reasonable fees and expenses of not more than one additional firm of attorneys selected by the Underwriter and/or controlling person shall be borne by the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Underwriter or controlling person shall assume the defense of such action as provided above, the Company shall have the right to approve the terms of any settlement of such action, except where such settlement provides for the full release of the Company.

5.1.3 Indemnification of the Company. Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers and employees and agents who control the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the several Underwriters, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions made in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or in any application, in reliance upon, and in strict conformity with, written information furnished (or not furnished in the case of an omission or alleged omission) to the Company with respect to such Underwriter by or on behalf of the Underwriter expressly for use in such Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or in any such application. In case any action shall be brought against the Company or any other person so indemnified based on any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or any application, and in respect of which indemnity may be sought against any Underwriter, such Underwriter shall have the rights and duties given to the Company, and the Company and each other person so indemnified shall have the rights and duties given to the several Underwriters by the provisions of Section 5.1.2.

5.2 Contribution.

5.2.1 Contribution Rights. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution under the Act in any case in which (i) any person entitled to indemnification under this Section 5 makes claim for indemnification pursuant hereto but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 5 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise may be required on the part of any such person in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 5, then, and in each such case, the Company and the Underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by said indemnity agreement incurred by the Company and the Underwriters, as incurred, in such

proportions that the Underwriters are responsible for that portion represented by the percentage that the underwriting discount appearing on the cover page of the Prospectus bears to the initial offering price appearing thereon and the Company is responsible for the balance; provided, that, no person guilty of a 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. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.3.1, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Public Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay in respect of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses. For purposes of this Section, each director, officer and employee of an Underwriter or the Company, as applicable, and each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter or the Company, as applicable, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Underwriters or the Company, as applicable.

5.2.2 Contribution Procedure. Within fifteen days after receipt by any party to this Agreement (or its representative) of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, such party will, if a claim for contribution in respect thereof is to be made against another party (“contributing party”), notify the contributing party of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the contributing party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any other party other than for contribution hereunder. In case any such action, suit or proceeding is brought against any party, and such party notifies a contributing party or its representative of the commencement thereof within the aforesaid fifteen days, the contributing party will be entitled to participate therein with the notifying party and any other contributing party similarly notified. Any such contributing party shall not be liable to any party seeking contribution on account of any settlement of any claim, action or proceeding effected by such party seeking contribution on account of any settlement of any claim, action or proceeding effected by such party seeking contribution without the written consent of such contributing party. The contribution provisions contained in this Section are intended to supersede, to the extent permitted by law, any right to contribution under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise available. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 5.3 are several and not joint.

6. Default by an Underwriter.

6.1 Default Not Exceeding 10% of Firm Securities or Option Securities. If any Underwriter or Underwriters shall default in its or their obligations to purchase the Firm Securities or the Option Securities, if the over-allotment option is exercised, hereunder, and if the number of the Firm Securities or Option Securities with respect to which such default relates does not exceed in the aggregate 10% of the number of Firm Securities or Option Securities that all Underwriters have agreed to purchase hereunder, then such Firm Securities or Option Securities to which the default relates shall be purchased by the non-defaulting Underwriters in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder.

6.2 Default Exceeding 10% of Firm Securities or Option Securities. In the event that the default addressed in Section 6.1 above relates to more than 10% of the Firm Securities or Option Securities, you may in your discretion arrange for yourself or for another party or parties to purchase such Firm Securities or Option Securities to which such default relates on the terms contained herein. If within one business day after such default relating to

more than 10% of the Firm Securities or Option Securities you do not arrange for the purchase of such Firm Securities or Option Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of one business day within which to procure another party or parties satisfactory to you to purchase said Firm Securities or Option Securities on such terms. In the event that neither you nor the Company arrange for the purchase of the Firm Securities or Option Securities to which a default relates as provided in this Section 6, this Agreement may be terminated by you or the Company without liability on the part of the Company (except as provided in Sections 3.15 and 5 hereof) or the several Underwriters (except as provided in Section 5 hereof); provided, however, that if such default occurs with respect to the Option Securities, this Agreement will not terminate as to the Firm Securities; and provided further that nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the other several Underwriters and to the Company for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

6.3 Postponement of Closing Date. In the event that the Firm Securities or Option Securities to which the default relates are to be purchased by the non-defaulting Underwriters, or are to be purchased by another party or parties as aforesaid, you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date or Option Closing Date for a reasonable period, but not in any event exceeding five business days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any other documents and arrangements, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendment to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus that in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriter may thereby be made necessary. The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall include any party substituted under this Section 6 with like effect as if it had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Securities.

7. Right to Appoint Representative. In the event HCFP has not exercised its option to designate a member of the Company’s Board of Directors in accordance with Section 8.1(b) below, for a period of three years from the Effective Date, upon notice from HCFP to the Company, HCFP shall have the right to send a representative (who need not be the same individual from meeting to meeting) to observe each meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company; provided that such representative shall sign a Regulation FD compliant confidentiality agreement which is reasonably acceptable to HCFP and its counsel in connection with such representative’s attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors; and provided further that upon written notice to HCFP, the Company may exclude the representative from meetings (i) for the portions of the meeting held in “executive session” and (ii) where, in the written opinion of counsel for the Company, the representative’s presence would jeopardize the attorney-client privilege. The Company agrees to give HCFP written notice of each such meeting and to provide HCFP with an agenda and minutes of the meeting no later than it gives such notice and provides such items to the other directors, and reimburse the representative of HCFP for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with its attendance at the meeting, including but not limited to, food, lodging and transportation.

If HCFP elects not to exercise its Management Right with respect to any Proposed Financing, and for any financing for which HCFP would be entitled to the Management Right but for the fact that its gross proceeds are $25 million or more, HCFP shall be entitled to (i) act as a co-managing underwriter, co-managing agent or co-managing arranger for such financing (“Co-Manager”) or at such other level as HCFP shall reasonably elect and (ii) assist the Company in identifying, selecting and negotiating with the lead underwriter, agent or arranger for such financing. HCFP, in its discretion, also shall be afforded the opportunity to purchase, place or arrange, as a member of the underwriting syndicate, selling group or arranging group for such financing, the largest allocation provided to any member thereof.

indemnity agreements contained in Section 5 hereof, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters, the Company or any controlling person, and shall survive termination of this Agreement or the issuance and delivery of the Securities to the several Underwriters until the earlier of the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations and the seventh anniversary of the later of the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, if any, at which time the representations, warranties and agreements shall terminate and be of no further force and effect.
