and Gentlemen:


 


JAKKS
Pacific, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner
& Smith Incorporated (“MLPFS” or the “Initial Purchaser”) $100,000,000 in aggregate principal amount
of its 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2018 (the “Firm Notes”). In addition, the Company has granted to the Initial
Purchaser an option to purchase up to an additional $15,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 4.25% Convertible Senior
Notes due 2018 (the “Optional Notes” and, together with the Firm Notes, the “Notes”), as provided in Section
2.


 


The
Notes will be convertible on the terms, and subject to the conditions, set forth in the indenture (the “Indenture”)
to be entered into between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank NA, as trustee (the “Trustee”), on the Closing Date (as
defined herein). This Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes are referred to herein collectively as the “Operative Documents.”
As used herein, “Conversion Shares” means the fully paid, nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $.001 per
share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) to be received by the holders of the Notes upon conversion of the Notes
pursuant to the terms of the Notes and the Indenture. The Notes will be convertible initially at a conversion rate of 114.3674
shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, on the terms, and subject to the conditions, set forth in the
Indenture (the “Conversion Rate”).


 


The
Notes will be offered and sold to the Initial Purchaser without being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) thereunder (the “Securities
Act”), in reliance upon an exemption therefrom.


 


The
Company understands that the Initial Purchaser proposes to make an offering of the Notes on the terms and in the manner set forth
herein and in the Disclosure Package (as defined below), including the Preliminary Offering Memorandum (as defined below), and
the Final Offering Memorandum (as defined below) and agrees that the Initial Purchaser may resell, subject to the conditions set
forth herein, all or a portion of the Notes to purchasers (the “Subsequent Purchasers”) at any time after the date
of this Agreement.

The
Company has prepared an offering memorandum, dated the date hereof, setting forth information concerning the Company, the Notes
and the Common Stock, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Initial Purchaser. As used in this Agreement, “Offering
Memorandum” means, collectively, the Preliminary Offering Memorandum dated as of July 17, 2013 (the “Preliminary
Offering Memorandum”) and the offering memorandum dated the date hereof (the “Final Offering Memorandum”), each
as then amended or supplemented by the Company. As used herein, each of the terms “Disclosure Package”, “Offering
Memorandum”, “Preliminary Offering Memorandum” and “Final Offering Memorandum” shall include in
each case the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein.


 


The
Company hereby confirms its agreements with the Initial Purchaser as follows:


 


Section
1. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company.


 


The
Company hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Initial Purchaser as follows:


 


(a)
No Registration. Assuming the
accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Initial Purchaser contained in Section 6 and their compliance with the agreements
set forth therein, it is not necessary, in connection with the issuance and sale of the Notes to the Initial Purchaser, the offer,
resale and delivery of the Notes by the Initial Purchaser and the conversion of the Notes into Conversion Shares, in each case
in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Indenture, the Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum, to register the
Notes or the Conversion Shares under the Securities Act or to qualify the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939.


 


(b)
No Integration. None of the Company
or any of its subsidiaries has, directly or through any agent, sold, offered for sale, solicited offers to buy or otherwise negotiated
in respect of, any “security” (as defined in the Securities Act) that is or will be integrated with the sale of the
Notes or the Conversion Shares in a manner that would require registration under the Securities Act of the Notes or the Conversion
Shares.


 


(c)
Rule 144A. The Notes are eligible
for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and no securities of the same class (within the meaning of Rule 144A(d)(3)
under the Securities Act) as the Notes are listed or will be listed at the Closing Date on any national securities exchange registered
under Section 6 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or quoted on an automated
inter-dealer quotation system.


 


(d)
Exclusive Agreement. Since November

Memorandum complied when it was filed, or will comply when it is filed, as the case may be, in all material respects with the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. The Preliminary Offering Memorandum, at the date thereof,

Date and on any Subsequent Closing Date, the Final Offering Memorandum did not and will not (and any amendment or supplement thereto,
at the date thereof, at the Closing Date and on any Subsequent Closing Date, will not) contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading; provided that the Company makes no representation or warranty as to information contained
in or omitted from the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Final Offering Memorandum in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished to the Company by the Initial Purchaser expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed

and remedies of creditors or by general equitable principles; and the Indenture conforms in all material respects to the description

result in a material adverse change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business, properties, operations

considered as one entity (any such change is called a “Material Adverse Change”); (ii) the Company and its subsidiaries,
considered as one entity, have not incurred any material liability or obligation, indirect, direct or contingent, nor entered
into any material transaction or agreement; and (iii) there has been no dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid

of capital stock or repurchase or redemption by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any class of capital stock.

(o)
Preparation of the Financial Statements.
The financial statements and the supporting schedules included or incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package and the
Final Offering Memorandum present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries
as of and at the dates indicated and the results of their operations and cash flows for the periods specified. Such financial

prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles as applied in the United States (“GAAP”) applied
on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved, except as may be expressly stated in the related notes thereto. The financial
data set forth in the Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Memorandum under the captions “Summary—Recent Developments”
and “Capitalization” fairly present the information set forth therein on a basis consistent with that of the audited
financial statements contained in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum. The Company’s ratios of earnings
to fixed charges set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum have been calculated in compliance with
Item 503(d) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act. The interactive data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language incorporated
by reference in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum fairly presents the information called for in all material
respects and has been prepared in all material respects in accordance with the Commission’s rules and guidelines applicable
thereto. In addition, the information included in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum under the heading “Summary—Recent
Developments—Revised 2013 Guidance” was determined by the Company with a reasonable basis and in good faith. 


 


(p)
Incorporation and Good Standing of the Company and its Subsidiaries.
Each of the Company and its subsidiaries has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as
a corporation in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has corporate power and authority to
own or lease, as the case may be, and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Disclosure Package
and the Final Offering Memorandum and, in the case of the Company, to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement.
The Company and each of its subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business and is in good standing
in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the
conduct of business, except for such jurisdictions where the failure to so qualify or to be in good standing would not, individually
or in the aggregate, result in a material adverse effect on the condition, financial or otherwise, or on the earnings, business,
properties, operations or prospects, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, of the Company
and its subsidiaries, considered as one entity (a “Material Adverse Effect”). All of the issued and outstanding shares
of capital stock of each subsidiary have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and are owned
by the Company, directly or through subsidiaries, free and clear of any security interest, mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance
or claim. Other than a 5% ownership interest in DreamPlay, LLC, the Company does not own or control, directly or indirectly, any
corporation, association or other entity other than the subsidiaries listed in Exhibit 21 to the Company’s Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.


 


(q)
Capitalization and Other Capital Stock Matters.
The authorized, issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company is as set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering
Memorandum under the caption “Capitalization” (other than for subsequent issuances, if any, pursuant to employee benefit
plans described in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum or upon exercise of outstanding options described
in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, as the case may be). The Common Stock (including the Conversion Shares)
conforms in all material respects to the description thereof contained in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum.
All of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable
and have been issued in compliance with federal and state securities laws. None of the outstanding shares of Common Stock were
issued in violation of any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities
of the Company. There are no authorized or outstanding options, warrants, preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other
rights to purchase, or equity or debt securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, any capital stock of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries other than those accurately described in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum.
The description of the Company’s stock option, stock bonus and other stock plans or arrangements, and the options or other
rights granted thereunder, set forth or incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum
accurately and fairly presents and summarizes such plans, arrangements, options and rights.

(r)
Non-Contravention of Existing Instruments; No Further Authorizations
or Approvals Required. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is (i) in violation or

by-laws, (ii) in Default under any indenture, mortgage, loan or credit agreement, deed of trust, note, contract, franchise, lease
or other agreement, obligation, condition, covenant or instrument to which the Company or such subsidiary is a party or by which

or to which any of the property or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is subject (each, an “Existing Instrument”)
or (iii) in violation of any statute, law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree of any court, regulatory body, administrative
agency, governmental body, arbitrator or other authority having jurisdiction over the Company or such subsidiary or any of its
properties, as applicable, except with respect to clause (ii) or (iii) only, for such Defaults as would not, individually or in
the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


The
Company’s execution, delivery and performance of the Operative Documents and consummation of the transactions contemplated
thereby, by the Disclosure Package and by the Final Offering Memorandum (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate
action of the Company and will not result in any Default under the charter or by-laws of the Company or any subsidiary, (ii) will
not conflict with or constitute a breach of, or Default or a Debt Repayment Triggering Event (as defined below) under, or result
in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries
pursuant to, or require the consent of any other party to, any Existing Instrument and (iii) will not result in any violation
of any statute, law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any court,
regulatory body, administrative agency, governmental body, arbitrator or other authority having jurisdiction over the Company
or any of its subsidiaries or any of its or their properties.


 


No
consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration or filing with, any court or other governmental or regulatory
authority or agency is required for the Company’s execution, delivery and performance of the Operative Documents and consummation
of the transactions contemplated thereby, by the Disclosure Package and by the Final Offering Memorandum, except such as have
been obtained or made by the Company and are in full force and effect under the Securities Act, applicable state securities or
blue sky laws and from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”).
As used herein, a “Debt Repayment Triggering Event” means any event or condition which gives, or with the giving
of notice or lapse of time would give, the holder of any note, debenture or other evidence of indebtedness (or any person acting
on such holder’s behalf) the right to require the repurchase, redemption or repayment of all or a portion of such indebtedness
by the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

to the Company or such subsidiary, or any officer or director of, or property owned or leased by, the Company or any of its subsidiaries
and (B) any such action, suit or proceeding, if so determined adversely, would reasonably be expected to have a Material

proceeding or claim by others that the Company’s business as now conducted infringes or otherwise violates any patent, trademark,

state, federal or foreign regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct their respective businesses, and neither the Company

materially interfere with the use made or proposed to be made of such property by the Company or such subsidiary. The real property,
improvements, equipment and personal property held under lease by the Company or any subsidiary are held under valid and enforceable
leases, with such exceptions as are not material and do not materially interfere with the use made or proposed to be made of such
real property, improvements, equipment or personal property by the Company or such subsidiary.

assessment, fine or penalty levied against any of them, except for any taxes, assessments, fines or penalties as may be being
contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings. The Company has made appropriate provisions in the financial statements
referred to in Section 1(o) above in respect of all federal, state, local and foreign income and franchise taxes for all current

from similar institutions as may be necessary or appropriate to conduct its business as now conducted and at a cost that would
not have a Material Adverse Effect.

event not later than the second business day following the date hereof, the Company will prepare and deliver to the Initial Purchaser
the Final Offering Memorandum, which shall consist of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum as modified only by the information

it is necessary to amend or supplement the Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum in order that the Disclosure Package
or the Final Offering Memorandum will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary
in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made or then prevailing, as the
case may be, not misleading, or if in the opinion of MLPFS or counsel for the Initial Purchaser it is otherwise necessary to amend
or supplement the Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum to comply with law, the Company shall promptly notify the

Section
7. Reimbursement of Initial Purchaser’s Expenses


 


If
this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 5 or Section 10(i)(A), or if the sale to the Initial Purchaser of the Notes
on the Closing Date or any Subsequent Closing Date is not consummated because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part
of the Company to perform any agreement herein or to comply with any provision hereof, the Company agrees to reimburse the Initial
Purchaser upon demand for all out-of-pocket expenses that shall have been reasonably incurred by the Initial Purchaser in connection
with the proposed purchase and the offering and sale of the Notes, including but not limited to fees and disbursements of counsel,
printing expenses, travel expenses, postage, facsimile and telephone charges.

(a)
Indemnification of the Initial Purchaser.
The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Initial Purchaser, its directors, officers, employees, agents, and affiliates
(as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as incurred, to which
the Initial Purchaser, director, officer, employee, agent or controlling person may become subject, insofar as such loss, claim,
damage, liability or expense (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Final Offering Memorandum,
the information contained in the Final Term Sheet, any Issuer Written Information or any other written information used by or
on behalf of the Company in connection with the offer or sale of the Notes (or any amendment or supplement to the foregoing),
or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact, in each case, necessary in order to make the statements therein,
in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and to reimburse the Initial Purchaser, its officers,
directors, employees, agents and each such controlling person for any and all expenses (including the fees and disbursements of
counsel chosen by MLPFS) as such expenses are reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchaser, or its officers, directors, employees,
agents or such controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss,
claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not apply to any
loss, claim, damage, liability or expense to the extent, but only to the extent, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to
the Company by the Initial Purchaser expressly for use in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Final Offering Memorandum,
the Final Term Sheet, any Issuer Written Information or any other written information used by or on behalf of the Company in connection
with the offer or sale of the Notes (or any amendment or supplement thereto), it being understood and agreed that the only
such information furnished by the Initial Purchaser consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof. The
indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 8(a) shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Company may otherwise
have.


 




    	22



    	 



    

  


(b)
Indemnification of the Company, its Directors and Officers.
The Initial Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers and each
person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any loss, claim,
damage, liability or expense, as incurred, to which the Company, or any such director, officer or controlling person may become
subject, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises
out of or is based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum,
the Final Offering Memorandum, the information contained in the Final Term Sheet, any
Issuer Written Information or any other written information used by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the offer or
sale of the Notes (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or arises out of or is based upon the omission or alleged omission
to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in
each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission was made in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Final Offering Memorandum,
the Final Term Sheet, any Issuer Written Information or any other written information used by or on behalf of the Company in connection
with the offer or sale of the Notes (or any amendment or supplement thereto), in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by MLPFS expressly for use therein; and to reimburse the Company, or any such director, officer
or controlling person for any legal and other expense (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Company)
reasonably incurred by the Company, or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending,
settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action. The Company hereby acknowledges that
the only information that the Initial Purchaser has furnished to the Company expressly for use in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum,
the Final Offering Memorandum, the Final Term Sheet, any Issuer Written Information or
any other written information used by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the offer or sale of the Notes (or
any amendment or supplement thereto) are the statements set forth in Schedule B. The indemnity agreement set forth in this
Section 8(b) shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Initial Purchaser may otherwise have.

(c)
Notifications and Other Indemnification Procedures.
Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified
party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying
party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the failure to so notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it
from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and 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 from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation
provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified
party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in,
and, to the extent that it shall elect, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, by written notice delivered
to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof
with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the
indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict may arise
between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that
there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available
to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal
defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt
of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of such indemnifying party’s election so to assume the defense
of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified
party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses 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 preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more
than one separate counsel (other than local counsel), reasonably approved by the indemnifying party (or by MLPFS in the case of
Section 8(b)), representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such action) or (ii) the indemnifying party shall
not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after
notice of commencement of the action, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying
party.


 


(d)
Settlements. The indemnifying
party under this Section 8 shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent,
which shall not be withheld unreasonably, but if settled with such consent or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff,
the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason
of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested
an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by Section 8(c)
hereof, the indemnifying party agrees that it 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 such indemnifying party of the aforesaid
request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request
prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party,
effect any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding
in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity was or could have been sought hereunder
by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (x) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified
party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or proceeding and (y) does not include a statement
as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

Section
9. Contribution


 


If
the indemnification provided for in Section 8 is for any reason unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold harmless
an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying
party shall contribute to the aggregate amount paid or payable by such indemnified party, as incurred, as a result of any losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, from the offering of the Notes
pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law,
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the
relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, in connection with the untrue statements
or omissions or alleged untrue statements or alleged omissions which 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 the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement shall be
deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement
(before deducting expenses) received by the Company, and the total purchase discount received by the Initial Purchaser bear to
the aggregate initial offering price of the Notes. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser,
on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on
the one hand, or the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information
and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.


 


The
amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall
be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8(c), any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably
incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim.


 


The
Company and the Initial Purchaser 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 this Section 9.


 


Notwithstanding
the provisions of this Section 9, the Initial Purchaser shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the purchase
discount or commission received by the Initial Purchaser in connection with the Notes purchased by it hereunder. 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. For purposes of this Section 9, each director, officer,
employee and agent of an Initial Purchaser and each person, if any, who controls an Initial Purchaser within the meaning of the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Initial Purchaser, and each director of
the Company, each officer of the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities
Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

Section
10. Termination of this Agreement


 


Prior
to the Closing Date and, with respect to the Optional Notes, any Subsequent Closing Date, this Agreement may be terminated by
MLPFS by notice given to the Company if at any time (i) (A) trading or quotation in any of the Company’s securities
shall have been suspended or limited by the Commission or by the Nasdaq Global Select Market, or (B) trading in securities generally
on the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Global Select Market shall have been suspended or limited, or minimum or maximum
prices shall have been generally established by the Commission or FINRA or on either such stock exchange; (ii) a general
banking moratorium shall have been declared by federal or New York authorities or a material disruption in commercial banking
or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States has occurred; or (iii) there shall have occurred any
outbreak or escalation of national or international hostilities or declaration of a national emergency or war by the United States
or any crisis or calamity, or any change in the United States or international financial markets, or any substantial change or
development involving a prospective substantial change in United States’ or international political, financial or economic
conditions, as in the judgment of MLPFS is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to market the Notes
in the manner and on the terms described in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum or to enforce contracts for
the sale of securities. Any termination pursuant to this Section 10 shall be without liability on the part of (a) the
Company to the Initial Purchaser, except that the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the expenses of the Initial Purchaser
pursuant to Sections 4 and 7 hereof or (b) the Initial Purchaser to the Company.


 


Section
11. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility


 


The
Company acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the purchase and sale of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination
of the offering price of the Notes and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction
between the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, and the Company is capable of evaluating and
understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;
(ii) in connection with each transaction contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction the Initial Purchaser
is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary of the Company or its affiliates,
stockholders, creditors or employees or any other party; (iii) no Initial Purchaser has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency
or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process
leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Initial Purchaser has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters)
and the Initial Purchaser has no obligation to the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations
expressly set forth in this Agreement; (iv) the Initial Purchaser and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range
of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and that the Initial Purchaser has no obligation
to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the Initial Purchaser has
not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Company
has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.


 


This
Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company and the Initial Purchaser,
or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, any claims that the Company may have against the Initial Purchaser with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency
or fiduciary duty.


 




    	26



    	 



    

  


Section
12. Research Analyst Independence


 


The
Company acknowledges that the Initial Purchaser’s research analysts and research departments are required to be independent
from their respective investment banking divisions and are subject to certain regulations and internal policies, and that the
Initial Purchaser’s research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish research
reports with respect to the Company and/or the offering that differ from the views of their respective investment banking divisions.
The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against the
Initial Purchaser with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by their independent
research analysts and research departments may be different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to the
Company by the Initial Purchaser’s investment banking divisions. The Company acknowledges that the Initial Purchaser is
a full service securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for
its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities of the Company.


 


Section
13. Representations and Indemnities to Survive Delivery


 


The
respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, of its officers and of the
Initial Purchaser set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement (i) will remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless
of any (A) investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchaser, the officers
or employees of the Initial Purchaser, or any person controlling the Initial Purchaser, the Company, the officers or employees
of the Company or any person controlling the Company, as the case may be or (B) acceptance of the Notes and payment for them hereunder
and (ii) will survive delivery of and payment for the Notes sold hereunder and any termination of this Agreement.

		b.	In
                                                                              connection with the offering of convertible notes,
                                                                              the review process you have performed is substantially
                                                                              consistent with the due diligence review process
                                                                              that you would have performed if this placement
                                                                              of securities were being registered pursuant to
                                                                              the Act.



 




    	 



    	 



    

 


In
connection with the Memorandum:


 


(1)         We
are an independent registered public accounting firm with respect to the Company within the meaning of the Act and the applicable
rules and regulations thereunder adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States) (PCAOB).


 


(2)         In
our opinion, the consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule audited by us and incorporated by reference
in the Memorandum comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and the related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC.


 


(3)         We
have not audited any financial statements of the Company as of any date or for any period subsequent to December 31, 2012; although
we have conducted audits for the years ended December 31, 2012, the purpose (and therefore the scope) of the audit was to enable
us to express our opinion on the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2012 and for the years then ended, but not
on the financial statements for any interim period within that year. Therefore, we are unable to and do not express any opinion
on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2013, and the unaudited condensed consolidated statements
of operations, comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for the three-months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, incorporated by
reference in the Memorandum, or on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as of any date or for any period
subsequent to December 31, 2012.


 


(4)         For
purposes of this letter, we have read the 2013 minutes of meetings of the stockholders, the board of directors, and the audit
committee of the Company and its subsidiaries as set forth in the minute books at July 16, 2013, officials of the Company having
advised us that the minutes of all such meetings through that date were set forth therein; we have carried out other procedures
to July 16, 2013 as follows (our work did not extend to the period from July 17, 2013 to July 18, 2013, inclusive):


 


(a)         With
respect to the three-month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, we have:


 


(i)          Performed

consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income and cash flows for the three-months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012,
incorporated by reference in the Memorandum.


 


(ii)         Inquired
of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters whether the unaudited condensed

adopted by the SEC.

                                                                              30, 2013, we have:

                                                                               the unaudited consolidated financial statements
                                                                               of the Company and subsidiaries for June 30 of
                                                                               both 2013 and 2012 furnished to us by the Company,
                                                                               officials of the Company having advised us that
                                                                               no such financial statements as of any date or

                                                                               available. The financial information for June 30,
                                                                               2013 is incomplete in that it omits a statement
                                                                               of cash flows and other disclosures.



 


		(ii)	Inquired
                                                                                of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility
                                                                                for financial and accounting matters whether the

                                                                                to in b(i) are stated on a basis substantially
                                                                                consistent with that of the audited consolidated
                                                                                financial statements incorporated by reference

The
foregoing procedures do not constitute an audit of financial statements conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.
Also, they would not necessarily reveal matters of significance with respect to the comments in the following paragraph. Accordingly,
we make no representations regarding the sufficiency of the foregoing procedures for your purposes.


 


		(5)	Nothing
                                                                              came to our attention as a result of the foregoing
                                                                              procedures, however, that caused us to believe that:

                                                                              for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally
                                                                              accepted accounting principles.



 


(ii)         The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements described in (4)(a) do not comply as to form in all material respects with
the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and Exchange Act and the related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC.

                                                                              condensed consolidated balance sheet incorporated

                                                                              all instances for changes, increases, or decreases
                                                                              that the Memorandum discloses have occurred or may
                                                                              occur, except that the unaudited consolidated balance
                                                                              sheet as of June 30, 2013, which we were furnished
                                                                              by the company, showed a decrease from March 31,
                                                                              2013, in net current assets of $65.4 million, and
                                                                              in stockholders’ equity of $48.2 million.



 




    	 



    	 



    

 


(6)         As
mentioned in 4b, Company officials have advised us that no consolidated financial statements as of any date or for any period
subsequent to June 30, 2013, are available; accordingly, the procedures carried out by us with respect to changes in financial
statement items after June 30, 2013, have, of necessity, been even more limited than those with respect to the periods referred
to in (4). We have inquired of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters whether
(a) at July 16, 2013, there was any change in the capital stock, increase in long-term debt or any decreases in consolidated net
current assets or stockholders' equity of the consolidated companies as compared with amounts shown on the March 31, 2013, unaudited
condensed consolidated balance sheet incorporated by reference in the Memorandum or (b) for the period from April 1, 2013 to June
30, 2013, there were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, in consolidated net sales
or in the total or per-share amounts of income before extraordinary items or of net income. On the basis of these inquiries and
our reading of the minutes as described in (4), nothing came to our attention that caused us to believe that there was any such
change, increase, or decrease except in all instances for changes, increases, or decreases that the Memorandum discloses have
occurred or may occur, except as described in the following sentence. We have been informed by officials of the company that there
continues to be a decrease in net current assets and stockholders’ equity that are estimated to be the same amounts as set
forth in item 5(b) above.


 


(7)         Our
audit of the consolidated financial statements for the periods referred to in the introductory paragraph of this letter comprised
audit tests and procedures deemed necessary for the purpose of expressing an opinion on such consolidated financial statements
taken as a whole. For none of the periods referred to therein nor for any other period did we perform audit tests for the purpose
of expressing an opinion on individual balances of accounts or summaries of selected transactions such as those enumerated below
and, accordingly, we express no opinion thereon.


 


(8)         However,
for purposes of this letter, we have read the circled items identified by you on the attached copy of the Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012; Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013; and the Preliminary
Offering Memorandum, and have performed the following additional procedures, which were applied as indicated by the symbols explained
below. In performing these procedures, we have considered to be in agreement amounts that, when compared, differed only due to
the effect of rounding. With respect to amounts that were computed by adjusting amounts for the receipt and application of the
proceeds from the offering as set forth under "Use of Proceeds," it should be understood that we make no comment regarding
the reasonableness of the "Use of Proceeds" or whether such proceeds or use will actually occur. Additionally, with
respect to analyses prepared by the Company, we make no comment regarding the completeness or appropriateness of such analyses
or the manner in which they were prepared. Our additional procedures were as follows:


 


(a)         Compared
the specified dollar amounts, percentages, and/or numbers of shares to amounts in the audited consolidated financial statements
described in the introductory paragraph of this letter to the extent that such amounts are included in or can be derived from
such statements or the related notes thereto, and found them to be in agreement.


 


(b)         Compared
the specified dollar amounts, percentages, and numbers of shares to amounts in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements as discussed in 4(a) to the extent that such amounts are included in or can be derived from such statements or the
related notes thereto, and found them to be in agreement.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


(c)         Compared
the specified dollar amounts, percentages, and numbers of shares to amounts in the Company’s accounting records and found
them to be in agreement.


 


(d)         Compared
the specified dollar amounts, percentages, and numbers of shares to amounts reflected in an accounting analyses or schedules prepared
by the Company and found them in to be agreement. With respect to analyses and schedules prepared by the Company, we make no comment
regarding the completeness, accuracy or appropriateness of such analyses or the manner in which they were prepared.


 


(e)         Recalculated
the specific dollar amounts, per share amounts, ratios and percentages based on the financial statements referred to in (a) or
(b) above and found them to be in agreement when taking rounding into account.         


 


(f)          Compared
the specified amounts to amounts reflected in the Company’s Board of Directors, or Board committee meeting minutes provided
to us by the Company, and found them to be in agreement.


 


(g)         Compared
the specified dollar amounts and percentage to amounts reflected in Footnote 20, Selected Quarterly Financial Data (unaudited),
in the December 31, 2012 consolidated financial statements to the extent that such amounts are included in or can be derived from
such footnote, and found them to be in agreement.


 


(h)         Compared
the specified dollar amounts to amounts reflected in the accounting analysis or schedule prepared by the Company and noted differences
of $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the 2012 interest expense in respect to the Company’s credit facility and Maui acquisition,
respectively.


 


(i)          Compared
the specified dollar amounts to amounts reflected in the individual’s employment agreement issued by the Company, and found
them to be in agreement.


 


(j)          Compared
or recalculated the specified dollar amounts, percentages, and/or numbers of shares to amounts in the 2010, 2009 and 2008 consolidated
financial statements, to the extent that such amounts are included in or can be derived from such statements or the related notes
thereto, and found them to be in agreement.


 


(k)         Compared
the specified dollar amounts to amounts reflected in the accounting analysis or schedule prepared by the Company and noted a difference
of $0.3 million for product development expense.


 


(l)          Compared
the specified dollar amounts to amounts reflected in the accounting analysis or schedule prepared by the Company and noted a difference
of $0.1 million for legal expense.


 


(m)        Compared
the specific dollar amounts to amounts reflected in the respective agreements entered into by the Company, and found them to be
in agreement.


 


(n)         Compared
sales concentration percentage of the three largest customers amount to amount reflected in the audited
consolidated financial statements described in the introductory paragraph of this letter and found a variance of 4.7% between
the sales concentration percentage of 42.1% versus 46.8% disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


(o)         Compared
the specified dollar amounts, percentages, and/or numbers of shares to amounts reflected in the June 30, 2012 unaudited consolidated
financial statements of the Company (not incorporated by reference in the Memorandum), filed with the SEC in a quarterly report
on Form 10-Q on August 7, 2012 to the extent that such amounts are included in or can be derived from such statements or the related
notes thereto, and found them to be in agreement.


 


(p)         Compared
the specified dollar amounts, percentages, and numbers of shares to amounts in the Company’s accounting records and the
June 30, 2013 unaudited financial statements provided by the Company as discussed in 4(b)(i) and found them to be in agreement.
The June 30, 2013 unaudited financial statements provided by the Company are preliminary and subject to change.


 


(9)         It
should be understood that we make no representations regarding questions of legal interpretation or regarding the sufficiency
for your purposes of the procedures enumerated in the preceding paragraph; also, such procedures would not necessarily reveal
any material misstatement of the amounts or percentages listed above. Further, we have addressed ourselves solely to the foregoing
data as set forth in the Memorandum and make no representations regarding the adequacy of disclosure or regarding whether any
material facts have been omitted.


 


(10)       This
letter is solely for the information of the addressees and to assist you in conducting and documenting their investigation of
the affairs of the Company in connection with the offering of the securities covered by the Memorandum, and it is not to be used,
circulated, quoted, or otherwise referred to for any other purpose, including but not limited to the registration, purchase, or

Convertible Senior Notes covered by the Memorandum.

by the Company and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery of the Indenture by the Trustee, will constitute a legally
valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement
thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the
rights and remedies of creditors’ or by general equitable principles; and the Indenture conforms in all material respects
to the description thereof contained in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum.


 


(ix)         The
Notes have been duly authorized by the Company; when the Notes are executed, authenticated and issued in accordance with the terms
of the Indenture and delivered to and paid for by the Initial Purchaser pursuant to the Purchase Agreement on the Closing Date
(assuming due authentication of the Notes by the Trustee), such Notes will constitute legally valid and binding obligations of

(x)          To
our knowledge the Company and each subsidiary possess such valid and current certificates, authorizations or permits issued by
the appropriate state, federal or foreign regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct their respective businesses, and,
to our knowledge, neither the Company nor any subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or
modification of, or non-compliance with, any such certificate, authorization or permit which, singly or in the aggregate, if the
subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, could have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


(xi)         Except
as otherwise disclosed in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, to our knowledge
the Company and its subsidiaries own or possess sufficient Intellectual Property Rights reasonably necessary to conduct their
business as now conducted; and the expected expiration of any of such Intellectual Property Rights would not, singly or in the
aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. To our knowledge and except as set forth in the Disclosure Package, the Final Memorandum,
neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has received any notice of infringement or conflict with, and to the best of our
knowledge, there is no infringement of or conflict with, asserted Intellectual Property Rights of others, which
infringement or conflict the Company has determined would, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. To our
knowledge, none of the technology employed by the Company has been obtained or is being used by the Company in violation of any
contractual obligation binding on the Company or any of its officers, directors or employees or otherwise in violation of the
rights of any persons.


 


(xii)        The
Conversion Shares initially issuable upon conversion of the Notes have been duly authorized and reserved and, when issued upon
conversion of the Notes in accordance with the terms of the Notes and the Indenture, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable,
and the issuance of such shares will not be subject to any preemptive or similar rights.


 


(xiii)       Registration
of the Notes under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is not required for (i) the offer and sale of the Notes by the Company
to the Initial Purchaser or (ii) the re-offer and resale of the Notes by the Company to the Initial Purchaser, in each case in
the manner contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering
Memorandum, relating to the Notes.


 


(xiv)      No
stockholder of the Company or any other person has any preemptive right, right of first refusal or other similar right to subscribe
for or purchase securities of the Company arising (i) by operation of the charter or by-laws of the Company or the General Corporation
Law of the State of Delaware or (ii) to the best of our knowledge or otherwise.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


(xv)       Each
document filed pursuant to the Exchange Act (other than the financial statements and supporting schedules included therein) and
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package or the Final
Offering Memorandum complied when so filed as to form in all material respects with the Exchange Act.


 


(xvi)      The
statements in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum under the caption “Certain United States Income Tax
Considerations”, insofar as such statements constitute matters of law, summaries of legal matters or legal proceedings,
or legal conclusions, have been reviewed by us and accurately and fairly present and summarize, in all material respects, the
matters referred to therein.


 


(xvii)     Except
as disclosed in the Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Memorandum, to the best of our knowledge, there are no other legal
or governmental actions, suits or proceedings pending or threatened (i) against or affecting the Company or any of its subsidiaries,
(ii) which has as the subject thereof any officer or director of, or property owned or leased by, the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or (iii) relating to environmental or discrimination matters, where in any such case (A) there is a reasonable
possibility that such action, suit or proceeding might be determined adversely to the Company or such subsidiary and (B) any
such action, suit or proceeding, if so determined adversely, would reasonably be expected to, singly or in the aggregate, have
a Material Adverse Effect or adversely affect the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. After
due inquiry, we do not know of any existing or, to the best of our knowledge, threatened or pending, material labor dispute with
the employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or with the employees of any principal supplier of the Company.


 


(xviii)    No
consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration or filing with, any court or other governmental authority
or agency is required for the Company’s execution, delivery and performance of the Purchase Agreement and consummation of
the transactions contemplated thereby and by the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, except as required under
the Securities Act, applicable state securities or blue sky laws and from FINRA.


 


(xix)       The
execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes by the Company and the performance by the Company
of its obligations thereunder (other than performance by the Company of its obligations under the indemnification section of the
Purchase Agreement, as to which no opinion is rendered) (i) will not result in any violation of the provisions of the charter
or by-laws of the Company or any subsidiary; (ii) will not constitute a breach of, or Default or a Debt Repayment Triggering
Event under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company
or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to, (A) the Company’s 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2014 or the related
indenture, or (B) any other Existing Instrument known to us; or (iii)  will not result in any violation of any statute, law,
rule, judgment, regulation, order or decree applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any court, regulatory body,
administrative agency, governmental body, arbitrator or other authority having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its subsidiaries
or any of its or their properties.


 




    	 



    	 



    

  


(xx)        The
Company is not, and after receipt of payment for the Notes and the application of the proceeds thereof as contemplated under the
caption “Use of Proceeds” in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum will not be, an “investment
company” within the meaning of Investment Company Act.


 


(xxi)       To
the best of our knowledge, neither the Company nor any subsidiary (A) is in violation of (i) its charter or by-laws or (ii) any
statute, law, rule, judgment, regulation, order or decree applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any court, regulatory
body, administrative agency, governmental body, arbitrator or other authority having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or any of its or their properties or (B) is in Default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement,
covenant or condition contained in any material Existing Instrument, except with respect to this clause (B) only, for such Defaults
as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


We
have participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the Company, representatives of the independent public
or certified public accountants for the Company and representatives of the Initial Purchaser at which the contents of the Disclosure
Package, including the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, and the Final Offering Memorandum, and any supplements or amendments thereto,
and related matters were discussed and, although we are not passing upon and do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy,
completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum (other than as
specified above), and any supplements or amendments thereto, on the basis of the foregoing, nothing has come to our attention
that would lead us to believe that (i) the Disclosure Package, as of the Applicable Time, contained any untrue statement of a
material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading or (ii) either the Final Offering Memorandum or any amendments thereto, as of its date
or at the Closing Date or any Subsequent Closing Date, as the case may be, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or
omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading (it being understood that we express no belief as to the financial statements or schedules or other
financial data derived therefrom, included in the Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Memorandum or any amendments or supplements
thereto).
