Ladies and Gentlemen: 

CLEARWIRE CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), confirms its agreement with CANTOR FITZGERALD &
CO. (“CF&Co”) as follows: 
 1. Issuance and Sale of Shares. The Company and CF&Co each
agree that, from time to time during the term of this Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, it may issue and sell through CF&Co, acting as agent and/or principal, shares of the Company’s Class A Common
Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), having an aggregate offering price of up to $300,000,000 (the “Shares”). The issuance and sale of Shares through CF&Co will be effected pursuant to the
Registration Statement (as defined below) filed by the Company and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), although nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring the Company to
issue the Shares. 
 The Company has filed, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the
rules and regulations thereunder (collectively, the “Securities Act”), with the Commission a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-178329), including a base prospectus dated December 5, 2011, relating to certain
securities, including the Shares to be issued from time to time by the Company, and which incorporates by reference documents that the Company has filed or will file in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (collectively, the “Exchange Act”). The Company has prepared a prospectus supplement, specifically relating to the Shares (the “Prospectus Supplement”), to the base
prospectus included as part of such registration statement. The Company has furnished to CF&Co, for use by CF&Co, copies of the prospectus included as part of such registration statement, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement,
relating to the Shares. Except where the context otherwise requires, such registration statement, on each date and time that such registration statement and any post-effective amendment thereto became or becomes effective, including all
documents filed as part thereof or incorporated by reference therein, and including any information contained in a Prospectus (as defined below) subsequently filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act and deemed to be
a part of such registration statement pursuant to Rule 430B or 462(b) of the Securities Act, is herein called the “Registration Statement.” The base prospectus, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, included in
the Registration Statement, as it may be supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, in the form in which such prospectus and/or Prospectus Supplement have most recently been filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the
Securities Act, together with any “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433 of the Securities Act Regulations (“Rule 433”), relating to the Shares that (i) is required to be filed with the Commission by
the Company or (ii) is exempt from filing pursuant to Rule 433(d)(5)(i), in each case in the form filed or required to be filed with the Commission or, if not 







 
required to be filed, in the form retained in the Company’s records pursuant to Rule 433(g) (an “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”), is herein called the
“Prospectus.” Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein, and any reference
herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing after the execution hereof of any document with
the Commission deemed to be incorporated by reference therein. For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or to any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed to include any copy filed with the
Commission pursuant to either the Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval System or Interactive Data Electronic Applications (collectively, “IDEA”). 
 2. Placements. Each time that the Company wishes to issue and sell the Shares hereunder (each, a “Placement”), it will notify CF&Co by email notice (or other method
mutually agreed to in writing by the parties) containing the parameters in accordance with which it desires the Shares to be sold, which shall at a minimum include the number of Shares to be issued (the “Placement Shares”), the time
period during which sales are requested to be made, any limitation on the number of Shares that may be sold in any one Trading Day (as defined in Section 3) and any minimum price below which sales may not be made (a “Placement
Notice”), a form of which containing such minimum sales parameters necessary is attached hereto as Schedule 1. The Placement Notice shall originate from any of the individuals from the Company set forth on Schedule 2
(with a copy to each of the other individuals from the Company listed on such schedule), and shall be addressed to each of the individuals from CF&Co set forth on Schedule 2, as such Schedule 2 may be amended from time to time. The
Placement Notice shall be effective upon receipt by CF&Co unless and until (i) in accordance with the notice requirements set forth in Section 4, CF&Co declines to accept the terms contained therein for any reason, in its sole
discretion, (ii) the entire amount of the Placement Shares have been sold, (iii) the Company suspends or terminates the Placement Notice, (iv) the Company issues a subsequent Placement Notice with parameters superseding those on the
earlier dated Placement Notice, or (v) the Agreement has been terminated under the provisions of Section 11. The amount of Shares to be issued and sold pursuant to any Placement Notice, taken together with any shares that are issuable
upon the exercise of existing pre-emptive rights, shall not exceed the amount of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, and compliance with such limitation shall be solely the obligation of the Company. The amount of any discount,
commission or other compensation to be paid by the Company to CF&Co in connection with the sale of the Placement Shares shall be calculated in accordance with the terms set forth in Schedule 3. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that
neither the Company nor CF&Co will have any obligation whatsoever with respect to a Placement or any Placement Shares unless and until the Company delivers a Placement Notice to CF&Co and CF&Co does not decline such Placement Notice
pursuant to the terms set forth above, and then only upon the terms specified therein and herein. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of a Placement Notice, the terms of the Placement Notice will
control. 
 3. Sale of Placement Shares by CF&Co. Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, upon the
Company’s issuance of a Placement Notice, and unless the sale of the Placement Shares described therein has been declined, suspended, or otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, CF&Co, for the period specified in
the Placement Notice, will use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of the NASDAQ Global Select Market
(“NASDAQ”) to sell such Placement Shares up to the amount specified, and otherwise in accordance with the terms of such Placement Notice. CF&Co will provide written confirmation to the Company (including by email
correspondence to each of the individuals of the Company set forth on Schedule 2, if receipt of such correspondence is actually acknowledged by any of the individuals to whom the notice is sent, other than via auto-reply) no later than the
opening of the Trading Day immediately following the Trading Day on which it 

  
 -2-









 
has made sales of Placement Shares hereunder setting forth the number of Placement Shares sold on such day, the compensation payable by the Company to CF&Co pursuant to Section 2 with
respect to such sales, and the Net Proceeds (as defined below) payable to the Company, with an itemization of the deductions made by CF&Co (as set forth in Section 5(a)) from the gross proceeds that it receives from such sales. Unless
otherwise set forth in a Placement Notice, CF&Co may sell Placement Shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act, including without limitation sales made
directly on NASDAQ, on any other existing trading market for the Common Stock or to or through a market maker. After consultation with the Company and subject to the terms of the Placement Notice, CF&Co may also sell Placement Shares in
privately negotiated transactions. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) there can be no assurance that CF&Co will be successful in selling Placement Shares, and (ii) CF&Co will incur no liability or obligation to the
Company or any other person or entity if it does not sell Placement Shares for any reason other than a failure by CF&Co to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to sell such Placement
Shares as required under this Section 3. For the purposes hereof, “Trading Day” means any day on which the Company’s Common Stock is purchased and sold on the principal market on which the Common Stock is listed or
quoted. 
 4. Suspension of Sales. The Company or CF&Co may, upon notice to the other party in writing
(including by email correspondence to each of the individuals of the other party set forth on Schedule 2, if receipt of such correspondence is actually acknowledged by any of the individuals to whom the notice is sent, other than via
auto-reply) or by telephone (confirmed immediately by verifiable facsimile transmission or email correspondence to each of the individuals of the other party set forth on Schedule 2), suspend any sale of Placement Shares; provided,
however, that such suspension shall not affect or impair either party’s obligations with respect to any Placement Shares sold hereunder prior to the receipt of such notice. Each of the parties agrees that no such notice under this
Section 4 shall be effective against the other unless it is made to one of the individuals named on Schedule 2 hereto, as such schedule may be amended from time to time. 

5. Settlement. 
 (a) Settlement of Placement Shares. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Placement Notice, settlement for sales of Placement Shares will occur on the third (3rd) Trading Day (or
such earlier day as is industry practice for regular-way trading) following the date on which such sales are made (each, a “Settlement Date”). The amount of proceeds to be delivered to the Company on a Settlement Date against
receipt of the Placement Shares sold (the “Net Proceeds”) will be equal to the aggregate sales price at which such Placement Shares were sold, after deduction for (i) CF&Co’s commission, discount or other compensation
for such sales payable by the Company pursuant to Section 2 hereof, (ii) any other amounts due and payable by the Company to CF&Co hereunder pursuant to Section 7(g) hereof, and (iii) any transaction fees imposed by any
governmental or self-regulatory organization in respect of such sales. 
 (b) Delivery of Placement Shares. On or
before each Settlement Date, the Company will, or will cause its transfer agent to, electronically transfer the Placement Shares being sold by crediting CF&Co’s or its designee’s account (provided CF&Co shall have given the
Company written notice of such designee prior to the Settlement Date) at The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian System or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto
which in all cases shall be freely tradeable, transferable, registered shares in good deliverable form. On each Settlement Date, CF&Co will deliver the related Net Proceeds in same day funds to an account designated by the Company on, or
prior to, the Settlement Date. The Company agrees that if the Company, or its transfer agent (if applicable), defaults in its obligation to deliver Placement Shares

on a Settlement Date, that in addition to and in no way limiting the rights and obligations set forth in Section 9(a) hereto, it will (i) hold CF&Co harmless against any loss,
claim, damage, or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out of or in connection with such default by the Company and (ii) pay to CF&Co any commission, discount, or other compensation to which it would
otherwise have been entitled absent such default.

not file any amendment or supplement to the 

  
 -15-









 
Registration Statement or Prospectus, other than documents incorporated by reference, relating to the offering and sale of Placement Shares under this Agreement unless a copy thereof has been
submitted to CF&Co within a reasonable period of time before the filing and CF&Co has not reasonably objected thereto (provided, however, that the failure of CF&Co to make such objection shall not relieve the Company of any
obligation or liability hereunder, or affect CF&Co’s right to rely on the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement) and the Company will furnish to CF&Co at the time of filing thereof a copy of any document
that upon filing is deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement or Prospectus, except for those documents available via IDEA; and (iv) the Company will effect the filings required under Rule 424(b) of the Securities
Act, including any amendments or supplements to the Prospectus, in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b) (without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8) of the Securities Act.

material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then existing, not misleading, or if during such period it is necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus to comply with the
Securities Act, the Company will promptly notify CF&Co, and confirm the notice in writing, to suspend the offering of Placement Shares during such period and the Company will promptly amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus

waived for any Representation Date occurring at a time at which no Placement Notice is pending, which waiver shall continue until the date the Company delivers a Placement Notice hereunder (which for such calendar quarter shall be considered a

waiver is applicable and upon the delivery of a certificate pursuant to Section 7(m), the Company shall cause Deloitte & Touche LLP to furnish CF&Co letters (the “Comfort Letters”), dated the date the Comfort
Letter is delivered, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to CF&Co, (i) confirming that they are an independent registered public accounting firm within the meaning of the Securities Act and the PCAOB, (ii) stating, as of such
date, the conclusions and findings of such firm with respect to the financial information and other matters ordinarily covered by accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters in connection with underwritten public offerings (the
first such letter, the “Initial Comfort Letter”) and (iii) updating the Initial Comfort Letter with any information that would have been included in the Initial Comfort Letter had it been given on such date and modified as
necessary to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented to the date of such letter. 
 (p) Market Activities. The Company will not, directly or indirectly, (i) take any action designed to cause or result in, or that constitutes or might reasonably be expected to constitute,
the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Shares or (ii) sell, bid for, or purchase the Shares to be issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement, or pay anyone any
compensation for soliciting purchases of the Shares other than CF&Co; provided, however, that the Company may bid for and purchase shares of its Common Stock in accordance with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act. 

(q) Compliance with Laws. The Company will comply in all material respects with all applicable securities and
other applicable laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, 

  
 -19-









 
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company’s directors and officers, in their capacities as such, to comply in all material respects with such
laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. 
 (r)
Investment Company Act. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to conducts its affairs in such a manner so as to ensure that neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries will be required to register as an investment
company under the Investment Company Act, except as otherwise determined by the Board of Directors of the Company to be in the best interests of stockholders. 
 (s) No Offer to Sell. Other than a free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act) approved in advance by the Company and CF&Co in its capacity as agent hereunder, neither
CF&Co nor the Company (including its agents and representatives, other than CF&Co in its capacity as such) will make, use, prepare, authorize, approve or refer to any written communication (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act), required to
be filed with the Commission, that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the Shares as contemplated to be sold pursuant to this Agreement. 

(t) Undertakings. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all of the
provisions of any undertakings in the Registration Statement. 
 8. Conditions to CF&Co’s Obligations. The
obligations of CF&Co hereunder with respect to a Placement will be subject to the accuracy and completeness of the representations and warranties made by the Company herein, to the due performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder, to
the completion by CF&Co of a due diligence review satisfactory to CF&Co in its reasonable judgment, and to the continuing satisfaction (or waiver by CF&Co in its sole discretion) of the following additional conditions: 

(a) Registration Statement Effective. The Registration Statement shall be effective and shall be available
for (i) all sales of Placement Shares issued pursuant to all prior Placement Notices and (ii) the sale of all Placement Shares contemplated to be issued by any Placement Notice. 

(b) No Material Notices. None of the following events shall have occurred and be continuing: (i) receipt
by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any request for additional information from the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the response to which
would require any post-effective amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus; (ii) the issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness
of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Placement
Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; (iv) the occurrence of any event that makes any material statement made in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any document
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in the Registration Statement, related Prospectus or such documents so that, in the case of the Registration
Statement, it will not contain any materially untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not


  
 -20-









 
misleading and, that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any materially untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any 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. 
 (c) No Misstatement or Material Omission. CF&Co shall not have advised the Company that the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, contains an untrue
statement of fact that in CF&Co’s reasonable opinion is material, or omits to state a fact that in CF&Co’s reasonable opinion is material and that is required to be stated therein or is necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading. 
 (d) Material Changes. Except as contemplated in the Prospectus, or disclosed in the
Company’s reports filed with the Commission and incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, there shall not have been any material adverse change, on a consolidated basis, any Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its subsidiaries, taken
as a whole, or any development that could reasonably be expected to result in such a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or any downgrading in or withdrawal of the rating assigned to any of the
Company’s securities by any rating organization or a public announcement by any rating organization that it has under surveillance or review its rating of any of the Company’s securities, the effect of which, in the case of any such action
by a rating organization described above, in the reasonable judgment of CF&Co (without relieving the Company of any obligation or liability it may otherwise have), is so material as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the
offering, sale or delivery of the Placement Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus. 
 (e) Legal Opinions. CF&Co shall have received the opinions of Company Counsel required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7(n) on or before the date on which such delivery of such
opinion is required pursuant to Section 7(n). 
 (f) Comfort Letter. CF&Co shall have
received the Comfort Letters required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7(o) on or before the date on which such delivery of such letter is required pursuant to Section 7(o). 

(g) Representation Certificate. CF&Co shall have received the certificate required to be delivered
pursuant to Section 7(m) on or before the date on which delivery of such certificate is required pursuant to Section 7(m). 
 (h) No Suspension. Trading in the Shares shall not have been suspended on the NASDAQ. 
 (i) Other Materials. On each date on which the Company is required to deliver a certificate pursuant to Section 7(m), the Company shall have furnished to CF&Co such appropriate
further information, certificates and documents as CF&Co may have reasonably requested. All such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents shall have been in compliance with the provisions hereof. The Company shall have furnished
CF&Co with such conformed copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents as CF&Co shall have reasonably requested. 
 (j) Securities Act Filings Made. All filings with the Commission required by Rule 424 under the Securities Act to have been filed prior to the issuance of any Placement Notice hereunder shall
have been made within the applicable time period prescribed for such filing by Rule 424. 

  
 -21-









 (k) Approval for Listing. The Placement Shares shall either have
been (i) approved for listing on NASDAQ, subject only to notice of issuance, or (ii) the Company shall have filed an application for listing of the Placement Shares on NASDAQ at, or prior to, the issuance of any Placement Notice.

 (l) No Termination Event. There shall not have occurred any event that would permit CF&Co to
terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11(a). 
 (m) Amount of Shares to be Issued. The
amount of Shares to be issued and sold pursuant to any Placement Notice, taken together with any shares that are issuable upon the exercise of existing pre-emptive rights, shall not exceed the amount of authorized and unissued shares of Common
Stock. 
 9. Indemnification and Contribution. 
 (a) Company Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless CF&Co, its affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls CF&Co within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, or is controlled by or is under common control with CF&Co, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without
limitation, reasonable legal fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted, as such fees are incurred), joint or several, that arise out of, or are based upon, (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer
information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act or filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Shares under the securities laws thereof, or in any materials or information provided to investors
by, or with the approval of, the Company in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Shares, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (iii) any breach by any of the indemnifying parties of any of their respective representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement, in each case except insofar
as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to CF&Co furnished to
the Company in writing by CF&Co expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by CF&Co consists of the information described as such in subsection (b) below (the “Agent
Content”). 
 (b) CF&Co Indemnification. CF&Co agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company,
its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the
indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon
and in conformity with any information relating to CF&Co furnished to the Company in writing by CF&Co expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or any Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus. 

  
 -22-









 (c) Procedures. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or
regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) above, such person (the “Indemnified
Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from
any liability that it may have under paragraph (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not
relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under paragraph (a) or (b) above. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified the
Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the
Indemnified Person in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and
expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a
reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded, based on the advice of counsel, that there may be legal defenses available to it that are
different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation
of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interest between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in
the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be promptly paid or reimbursed as they are incurred.
Any such separate firm for CF&Co, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of CF&Co shall be designated in writing by CF&Co and any such separate firm for the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the
Registration Statement and any control persons of the Company shall be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with
such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any
settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request and (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed
the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in
respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure
to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person. 

  
 -23-









 (d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs
(a) and (b) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying
such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (including any investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably
incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, but after deducting any contribution received by the Company from persons other than CF&Co, such as persons who control the
Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, officers of the Company who signed the Registration Statement and directors of the Company, who also may be liable for contribution) (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and CF&Co on the other, from the offering of the Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and CF&Co on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and CF&Co on the other, shall be deemed to be in the same respective
proportions as the net proceeds (before deducting expenses) received by the Company from the sale of the Shares and the commissions received by CF&Co in connection therewith, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus,
bear to the aggregate offering price of the Shares. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and CF&Co on the other, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by CF&Co and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission. 
 (e) Limitation on Liability. The Company and CF&Co agree that it would not be just
and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph
(d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above,
any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, in no event shall CF&Co be required to contribute any amount in excess of the
commissions received by it with respect to the offering of the Shares. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 
 (f) Non-Exclusive Remedies. The remedies provided for in this
Section 9 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity.
 10. Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in Section 9 of this Agreement and all representations and warranties of the
Company herein or in certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive, as of their respective dates, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of CF&Co, any controlling persons, or the Company (or any of their respective
officers, directors or controlling persons), (ii) delivery and acceptance of the Placement Shares and payment therefor or (iii) any termination of this Agreement. 

  
 -24-









 11. Termination. 

(a) CF&Co shall have the right by giving notice as hereinafter specified at any time to terminate this Agreement if (i) any
Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or any development that has actually occurred and that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, has occurred that, in the reasonable judgment of CF&Co, may materially impair the ability of CF&Co to sell the Placement Shares hereunder, (ii) the Company shall have failed, refused or been unable to perform any agreement on its
part to be performed hereunder; provided, however, in the case of any failure of the Company to deliver (or cause another person to deliver) any certification, opinion, or letter required under Sections 7(m), 7(n), or 7(o),
CF&Co’s right to terminate shall not arise unless such failure to deliver (or cause to be delivered) continues for more than thirty (30) days from the date such delivery was required, (iii) any other condition of CF&Co’s
obligations hereunder is not capable of being fulfilled in a timely manner, (iv) any suspension or limitation of trading in the Placement Shares or in securities generally on NASDAQ shall have occurred, (v) trading generally shall have
been suspended or materially limited on or by any of the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ, (vi) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or New York State authorities or (vii) there shall
have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States, that, in the judgment of CF&Co, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable
or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Placement Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement and the Prospectus. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other
party except that the provisions of Section 7(g), Section 9, Section 10, Section 16 and Section 17 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination. If CF&Co elects to terminate this
Agreement as provided in this Section 11(a), CF&Co shall provide the required notice as specified in Section 12. 

(b) The Company shall have the right, by giving ten (10) days notice as hereinafter specified to terminate this Agreement in its
sole discretion at any time after the date of this Agreement. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party, except that the provisions of Section 7(g), Section 9, Section 10, Section 16 and
Section 17 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination. 
 (c) CF&Co shall have the
right, by giving ten (10) days notice as hereinafter specified to terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion at any time after the date of this Agreement. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party
except that the provisions of Section 7(g), Section 9, Section 10, Section 16 and Section 17 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination. 

(d) Unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Section 11, this Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the issuance and sale
of all of the Placement Shares through CF&Co on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; provided, that the provisions of Section 7(g), Section 9, Section 10, Section 16 and Section 17 hereof
shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination. 
 (e) This Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect unless terminated pursuant to Sections 11(a), (b), (c), or (d) above or otherwise by mutual agreement of the parties; provided, however, that any such termination by mutual agreement shall in all cases be deemed to provide
that Section 7(g), Section 9, Section 10, Section 16 and Section 17 shall remain in full force and effect. 
 (f) Any termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of termination; provided, however, that such termination shall not be effective until the close
of business on the date of receipt of such notice by CF&Co or the Company, as the case may be. If such 

  
 -25-









 
termination shall occur prior to the Settlement Date for any sale of Placement Shares, such termination shall not become effective until the close of business on such Settlement Date, with
Placement Shares settling in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. 
 12. Notices. All notices or other
communications required or permitted to be given by any party to any other party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, and if sent to CF&Co, shall be delivered to CF&Co at

nationally-recognized overnight courier and (iii) on the Business Day actually received if deposited in the U.S. mail (certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid). For purposes of this Agreement, “Business

 13.
Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and CF&Co and their respective successors and the affiliates, controlling persons, officers and directors referred to in
Section 9 hereof. References to any of the parties contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to include the successors and permitted assigns of such party. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party
other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Neither party may assign its
rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that CF&Co may assign its rights and obligations hereunder to an affiliate of CF&Co without obtaining the
Company’s consent. 
 14. Adjustments for Stock Splits. The parties acknowledge and agree that all
share-related numbers contained in this Agreement shall be adjusted to take into account any stock split, stock dividend or similar event effected with respect to the Shares. 
 15. Entire Agreement; Amendment; Severability. This Agreement (including all schedules and exhibits attached hereto and Placement Notices issued pursuant hereto) constitutes the entire
agreement and supersedes all other prior and contemporaneous agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended except
pursuant to a written instrument executed by the Company and CF&Co. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstance, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable as written
by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such provision shall be given full force and effect to the fullest possible extent that it is valid, legal and enforceable, and the remainder of the terms and provisions herein shall be construed as if such
invalid, illegal or unenforceable term or provision was not contained herein, but only to the extent that giving effect to such provision and the remainder of the terms and provisions hereof shall be in accordance with the intent of the parties as
reflected in this Agreement. 

  
 -26-









 16. Applicable Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and
construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to the principles of conflicts of laws other than Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations Law. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection with any transaction contemplated hereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees
not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or
proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof (certified or registered mail, return receipt
requested) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit
in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. 
 17. Waiver of Jury Trial. The Company and
CF&Co each hereby irrevocably waives any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any claim based upon or arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby. 

18. Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that: 

(a) CF&Co has been retained solely to act as sales agent in connection with the sale of the Shares and that no
fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Company and CF&Co has been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, irrespective of whether CF&Co has advised or is advising the Company on other
matters; 
 (b) the Company is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms,
risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; 
 (c) the Company has been advised
that CF&Co and its affiliates are engaged in a broad range of transactions that may involve interests that differ from those of the Company and that CF&Co has no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to the Company by virtue
of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship; and 
 (d) the Company waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, any claims it may have against CF&Co, for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agrees that CF&Co shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to the Company in respect of such a fiduciary
claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of the Company, including stockholders, partners, employees or creditors of the Company. 
 19. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
