To the knowledge of the Company, there are no actual or proposed tax assessments against the Company or any of the Subsidiaries that would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. The accruals on the books and records of the Company and the Subsidiaries in respect of any material tax liability for any period not finally determined are adequate to meet any assessments of tax for any such period.

No claims or notices of any potential claim have been asserted by any person against the Company or any of the Subsidiaries challenging the use of any such Intellectual Property by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries or questioning the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property or any license or agreement related thereto, other than any claims that, if successful, would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as described in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, none of the Intellectual Property used by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries has been obtained or is being used by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries in violation of any contractual obligation binding on the Company or any of the Subsidiaries or, to the Company’s or any of the Subsidiaries’ knowledge, its officers, directors or employees or otherwise in violation of the rights of any person, other than any violations that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(t) ERISA Matters.

Other than as described in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, and except as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries is party to or bound by any collective bargaining agreement with any labor organization; (ii) there is no union representation question existing with respect to the employees of the Company or the Subsidiaries, and, to the knowledge of the Company, after due inquiry, no union organizing activities are taking place that, could, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect; (iii) to the knowledge of the Company, after due inquiry, no union organizing or decertification efforts are underway or threatened against the Company or the Subsidiaries; (iv) no labor strike, work stoppage, slowdown or other material labor dispute is pending against the Company or the Subsidiaries, or, to the Company’s knowledge, after due inquiry, threatened against the Company or the Subsidiaries; (v) there is no worker’s compensation liability, experience or matter that could be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (vi) to the knowledge of the Company, after due inquiry, there is no threatened or pending liability against the Company or the Subsidiaries pursuant to the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act of 1988, as amended (“WARN”), or any similar state or local law; (vii) there is no employment-related charge, complaint, grievance, investigation, unfair labor practice claim or inquiry of any kind, pending against the Company or the Subsidiaries that could, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect; and (viii) to the knowledge of the Company and the Subsidiaries, no employee or agent of the Company or the Subsidiaries has committed any act or omission giving rise to liability for any violation identified in subsection (vi) and (vii) above, other than such acts or omissions that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(v) Compliance with Environmental Laws. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is (i) in compliance with all applicable U.S. and non-U.S. federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to occupational health and safety (with respect to hazardous or toxic substances or wastes), the pollution or protection of the environment, hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants (“Environmental Laws”), (ii) has received and is in compliance with all permits, licenses or other approvals required of it under applicable Environmental Laws and (iii) has not received notice of, and is not aware of, any actual or potential liability under Environmental Laws, including for damages to natural resources or the investigation or remediation of any disposal, release or existence of hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants, in each case, except where such non-compliance with Environmental Laws, failure to receive and comply with required permits, licenses or other approvals, or liability would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries has been named as a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, or any similar U.S. or non-U.S. state or local Environmental Laws or is otherwise required by any Environmental Law to investigate or remediate any pollutants or contaminants, except where such requirements would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business.

(w) Insurance. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has insurance covering their respective properties, operations, personnel and businesses, including business interruption insurance, which insurance is in amounts and insures against such losses and risks as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which they are engaged. All material policies of insurance insuring the Company or any of the Subsidiaries or their respective businesses, assets, employees, officers and directors are in full force and effect. Other than as described in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, and except as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there are no claims by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries under any such policy or instrument as to which any insurance company is denying liability or defending under a reservation of rights clause. Neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business as now conducted and at a cost that would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(x) Accounting System. The Company and each of the Subsidiaries make and keep accurate books and records and maintain a system of internal accounting controls and procedures sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP, and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any material differences. The interactive data in XBRL incorporated by reference in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus fairly present the information called for in all material respects and are prepared in accordance with the SEC’s rules and guidelines applicable thereto. The Company has no “material weaknesses” or “significant deficiencies” (each, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act), and is not aware of any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a role in the internal controls of the Company (whether or not remediated) except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus in all material respects. Since the date of the most recent evaluation of such disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls, there have been no material changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

(y) No Price Stabilization or Manipulation. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) (“Affiliates”) has and, to the Company’s knowledge, no one acting on its behalf has, (i) taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result in, or that has constituted or which might reasonably be expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Shares, whether to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Offered Shares or otherwise, (ii) sold, bid for, purchased, or paid anyone any compensation for soliciting purchases of, any of the Offered Shares, or (iii) except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, paid or agreed to pay to any person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase any of the Offered Shares.

Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, there are no persons with registration or other similar rights to have any equity or debt securities of the Company or any Affiliate registered for sale under the Securities Act. No person has the right to include Shares or any other security of the Company or any Affiliate in the Registration Statement or the offering contemplated thereby except for such rights as (i) are described in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus and (ii) have been duly waived.

(aa) Investment Company Act. The Company has been advised of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder (collectively, the “Investment Company Act”); as of the date hereof and, after giving effect to the Transactions, each of the Company and the Subsidiaries are not and will not be, individually or on a consolidated basis, an “investment company” that is required to be registered under the Investment Company Act; and following the closing of the Transactions, the Company and the Subsidiaries will conduct their businesses in a manner so as not to be required to register under the Investment Company Act.

(bb) No Brokers. Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates has engaged any broker, finder, commission agent or other person (other than the Representatives) in connection with the Transactions, and neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates is under any obligation to pay any broker’s fee or commission in connection with such Transactions (other than commissions or fees to the Representatives).

(cc) No Restrictions on Payments of Dividends. As of the First Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as applicable, except as otherwise disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, and except as prohibited or restricted under Applicable Law, there will be no encumbrances or restrictions on the ability of any of the Subsidiaries (x) to pay dividends or make other distributions on such Subsidiary’s capital stock or to pay any indebtedness to the Company or any other Subsidiary, (y) to make loans or advances or pay any indebtedness to, or investments in, the Company or any other Subsidiary or (z) to transfer any of its property or assets to the Company or any other Subsidiary.

(dd) Sarbanes-Oxley.

(ee) Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. None of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, or to the Company’s knowledge, any director, officer, employee, Affiliate or any agent or other person acting on behalf of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, in the course of its actions for, or on behalf of, the Company or such Subsidiary, has taken any action, directly or indirectly, that would result in a violation by such persons of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (collectively, the “FCPA”), including, without limitation, (i) used any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expenses relating to political activity; (ii) made any direct or indirect unlawful payment to any domestic government official, “foreign official” (as defined in the FCPA) or employee from corporate funds; (iii) violated or is in violation of any provision of the FCPA or any applicable non-U.S. anti-bribery statute or regulation; or (iv) made any unlawful bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful payment to any domestic government official, such foreign official or employee. The Company, its Subsidiaries and, to the knowledge of the Company, its Affiliates, have conducted their business in compliance with the FCPA.

(ff) Money Laundering. The operations of the Company and the Subsidiaries are and have been conducted at all times in compliance with applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements of the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970, as amended, the money laundering statutes of all applicable jurisdictions, the rules and regulations thereunder and any related or similar rules, regulations or guidelines issued, administered or enforced by any governmental agency (collectively, the “Money Laundering Laws”), and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Company or any of the Subsidiaries with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened.

(gg) OFAC. Neither the Company nor the Subsidiaries nor, to the Company’s knowledge, any director, officer, agent, employee or Affiliate of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries or other person acting on their behalf is currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Treasury Department (“OFAC”) nor is the Company or any of its Subsidiaries located in a country or territory that is subject to U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC; and the Company will not directly or indirectly use the proceeds of the Firm Shares, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any subsidiary, joint venture partner or other person or entity (i) for the purpose of financing the activities of any person currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC or that is in Cuba, Iran, North Korea, or Syria or in any other country that is at the time subject to U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC or (ii) in any other manner that will result in a violation by any person (including any person participating in the Transactions, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor or otherwise) of any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC.

(hh) Financial Services and Market Act. The Company has not taken or omitted to take any action and will not take any action or omit to take any action (such as issuing any press release or making any other public announcement referring to the Offering without an appropriate stabilization legend) which may result in the loss by the Underwriters of the ability to rely on any stabilization safe harbor provided by the Financial Conduct Authority of the United Kingdom under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “FSMA”); provided, however, that an appropriate stabilization legend was not in the Time of Sale Prospectus. The Company has been informed of the guidance relating to stabilization provided by the Financial Conduct Authority of the United Kingdom, in particular the guidance contained in Section MAR 2 of the Financial Services Handbook.

(ii) Compliance with Registration Requirements. The Registration Statement has become effective under the Securities Act. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement is in effect and no proceedings for such purpose have been instituted or are pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company, are contemplated or threatened by the Commission. The Company is eligible to use Form S-3 under the Securities Act. At the original effectiveness of the Registration Statement, at the time the Company or any person acting on its behalf (within the meaning, for this clause only, of Rule 163(c) under the Securities Act) made any offer relating to the Offered Shares in reliance on the exemption of Rule 163 under the Securities Act, and as of the Applicable Time, the Company was and is a “well-known seasoned issuer” (as defined in Rule 405). At the time of filing the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, at the earliest time thereafter that the Company or another offering participant made a bona fide offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2) under the Securities Act)

of the Offered Shares and at the date hereof, the Company was not and is not an “ineligible issuer,” as defined in Rule 405, without taking account of any determination by the SEC pursuant to Rule 405 that it is not necessary that the Company be considered an ineligible issuer. The documents incorporated by reference or deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, at the time they were or hereafter are filed with the Commission, or became effective under the Exchange Act, as the case may be, complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and such documents have not been superseded or modified.

(jj) Free Writing Prospectuses; Road Show. As of the determination date referenced in Rule 164(h) under the Securities Act, the Company was not, is not or will not be (as applicable) an “ineligible issuer” in connection with the offering of the Offered Shares pursuant to Rules 164, 405 and 433 under the Securities Act. Each free writing prospectus that the Company has filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act or that was prepared by or on behalf of or used or referred to by the Company complies or will comply in all material respects with the requirements of Rule 433 under the Securities Act, including timely filing with the Commission or retention where required and legending, and each such free writing prospectus, as of its issue date and at all subsequent times through the completion of the public offer and sale of the Offered Shares did not, does not and will not include any information that conflicted, conflicts or will conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus and not superseded or modified. Except for the free writing prospectuses, if any, identified in Schedule B, and electronic road shows, if any, furnished to you before first use, the Company has not prepared, used or referred to, and will not, without your prior written consent, prepare, use or refer to, any free writing prospectus. Each Road Show, when considered together with the Time of Sale Prospectus, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(kk) The Underwriting Agreement. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company.

(ll) Authorization of the Offered Shares.

(mm) Disclosure Controls and Procedures; Deficiencies in or Changes to Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. The Company has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act), which (i) are designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the Company’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer by others within those entities, particularly during the periods in which the periodic reports required under the Exchange Act are being prepared; (ii) have been evaluated by management of the Company for effectiveness as of the end of the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter; and (iii) are effective in all material respects to perform the functions for which they were established. Since the end of the Company’s most recent audited fiscal year, there have been no significant deficiencies or material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (whether or not remediated) and no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company is not aware of any change in its internal control over financial reporting that has occurred during its most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

(nn) Stock Exchange Listing. The Offered Shares are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and shall have been approved for listing on the NASDAQ, subject only to official notice of issuance, and the Company has taken no action designed to, or likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration of the Shares under the Exchange Act or delisting the Shares from the NASDAQ, nor has the Company received any notification that the Commission or the NASDAQ is contemplating terminating such registration or listing. To the Company’s knowledge, it is in compliance with all applicable listing requirements of NASDAQ.

(oo) FINRA Matters. All of the information provided to the Underwriters or to counsel for the Underwriters by the Company, its officers and directors and the holders of any securities (debt or equity) or options to acquire any securities of the Company in connection with the offering of the Offered Shares is true, complete, correct and compliant with FINRA’s rules and any letters, filings or other supplemental information provided to FINRA pursuant to FINRA Rules or NASD Conduct Rules is true, complete and correct.

The Company has furnished to the Underwriters a letter agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Lock-up Agreement”) from each of the persons listed on Exhibit B. Such Exhibit B lists under an appropriate caption the directors and executive officers of the Company. If any additional persons shall become directors or executive officers of the Company prior to the end of the Lock-up Period (as defined below), the Company shall cause each such person, prior to or contemporaneously with their appointment or election as a director or executive officer of the Company, to execute and deliver to the Representatives a Lock-up Agreement.

(qq) Medicare and Medicaid Programs. To the extent required in connection with their respective businesses, each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has the requisite provider number or other authorization to bill the Medicare program and the respective Medicaid program in the state or states in which such entity operates unless failure to maintain such provider number or other authorization would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect; other than immaterial statements of deficiency that may arise in the ordinary course of business, neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries is subject to any pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened or contemplated action which could reasonably be expected to result either in a revocation of any provider number or authorization or in the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s exclusion from the Medicare or any state Medicaid programs unless revocation of such provider number or authorization, or the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s exclusion from such Medicare or state Medicaid programs, would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect; the Company’s and each of the Subsidiaries’ business practices have been structured in a manner reasonably designed to comply with the federal or state laws governing Medicare and state Medicaid programs, including, without limitation, Sections 1320a-7a and 1320a-7b of Title 42 of the United States Code, and the Company reasonably believes that it is in compliance with such laws, except for such noncompliance as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect; the Company and the Subsidiaries have taken reasonable actions designed to ensure that they do not: (i) violate the False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. §§ 3729-3733 or (ii) allow any individual with an ownership or control interest (as defined in 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-3(a)(3)) in the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or have any officer, director or managing employee (as defined in 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-5(b)) of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries who would be a person excluded from participation in any federal health care program (as defined in 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7b(f)) as described in 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7(b)(8); and the Company and the Subsidiaries have structured their respective businesses practices in a manner designed to comply with the federal and state laws regarding physician ownership of (or financial relationship with), and referral to, entities providing healthcare-related goods or services, and with laws requiring disclosure of financial interests held by physicians in entities to which they may refer patients for the provisions of healthcare-related goods or services, and the Company and the Subsidiaries are in compliance with such laws, except for such noncompliance as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(rr) Expected Completion of the Transactions; Acquisition Representations and Warranties. The Company expects that the Transactions will be consummated in all material respects on the terms and by the date and as contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement and the description thereof set forth in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus. All representations and warranties of the Company in the Acquisition Agreement are true and correct in all material respects, and to the Company’s knowledge, all representations and warranties of the Sellers in the Acquisition Agreement are true and correct in all material respects. To the Company’s knowledge, each of the representations and warranties contained in this Section 1 (other than clause (h)) would be true and correct in all material respects if the Acquisition had been completed and Priory and each of the subsidiaries acquired from the Sellers were subsidiaries of the Company as of the date hereof.

(ss) Certificates. Each certificate signed by any officer of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, delivered to the Representatives shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Company or any such Subsidiary (and not individually by such officer) to the Representatives with respect to the matters covered thereby.

The Company acknowledges that the Underwriters and, for purposes of the opinions to be delivered pursuant to Section 6 hereof, counsel to the Company and counsel to the Underwriters, will rely upon the accuracy and truthfulness of the foregoing representations and hereby consents to such reliance.

(a) The Firm Shares. Upon the terms herein set forth, the Company agrees to sell to the several Underwriters an aggregate of 10,000,000 Firm Shares. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, and upon the terms but subject to the conditions herein set forth, the Underwriters agree, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, the respective number of Firm Shares set forth opposite their names on Schedule A. The purchase price per Firm Share to be paid by the several Underwriters to the Company shall be $59.475 per share.

(b) The First Closing Date. Delivery of certificates for the Firm Shares to be purchased by the Underwriters and payment therefor shall be made at the offices of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP (or such other place as may be agreed to by the Company and the Representatives) at 9:00 a.m. New York City time, on January 12, 2016, or such other time and date not later than 1:30 p.m. New York City time, on January 27, 2016 as the Representatives shall designate by notice to the Company (the time and date of such closing are called the “First Closing Date”). The Company hereby acknowledges that circumstances under which the Representatives may provide notice to postpone the First Closing Date as originally scheduled include, but are not limited to, any determination by the Company or the Representatives to recirculate to the public copies of an amended or supplemented Prospectus or a delay as contemplated by the provisions of Section 10.

(c) The Optional Shares; Option Closing Dates. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, and upon the terms but subject to the conditions herein set forth, the Company hereby grants an option to the several Underwriters to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to the maximum number of Optional Shares from the Company at the purchase price per share to be paid by the Underwriters for the Firm Shares, less an amount per share equal to any dividend or distribution declared by the Company and payable on the Firm Shares but not payable on Optional Shares. The option granted hereunder may be exercised at any time and from time to time in whole or in part upon notice by the Representatives to the Company, which notice may be given at any time within 30 days from the date of this Agreement. Such notice shall set forth (i) the aggregate number of Optional Shares as to which the Underwriters are exercising the option and (ii) the time, date and place at which certificates for the Optional Shares will be delivered (which time and date may be simultaneous with, but not earlier than, the First Closing Date; and in the event that such time and date are simultaneous with the First Closing Date, the term “First Closing Date” shall refer to the time and date of delivery of certificates for the Firm Shares and such Optional Shares). Any such time and date of delivery, if subsequent to the First Closing Date, is called an “Option Closing Date,” and shall be determined by the Representatives and shall not be earlier than three or later than five full business days after delivery of such notice of exercise. If any Optional Shares are to be purchased, each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Optional Shares (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as the Representatives may determine) that bears the same proportion to the total number of Optional Shares to be purchased as the number of Firm Shares set forth on Schedule A opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm Shares. The Representatives may cancel the option at any time prior to its expiration by giving written notice of such cancellation to the Company.

(d) Public Offering of the Offered Shares. The Representatives hereby advise the Company that the Underwriters intend to offer for sale to the public, initially on the terms set forth in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, their respective portions of the Offered Shares as soon after this Agreement has been executed as the Representatives, in their sole judgment, have determined is advisable and practicable.

(e) Payment for the Offered Shares. (i) Payment for the Offered Shares shall be made at the First Closing Date (and, if applicable, at each Option Closing Date) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to bank accounts designated by the Company.

(ii) It is understood that the Representatives have been authorized, for their own account and the accounts of the several Underwriters, to accept delivery of and receipt for, and make payment of the purchase price for, the Firm Shares and any Optional Shares the Underwriters have agreed to purchase. Merrill Lynch, individually and not as a Representative of the Underwriters, may (but shall not be obligated to) make payment for any Offered Shares to be purchased by any Underwriter whose funds shall not have been received by the Representatives by the First Closing Date or the applicable Option Closing Date, as the case may be, for the account of such Underwriter, but any such payment shall not relieve such Underwriter from any of its obligations under this Agreement.

(f) Delivery of the Offered Shares. The Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Representatives for the accounts of the several Underwriters, certificates or general statements of book entry account representing the Firm Shares, at the First Closing Date, against release of a wire transfer of immediately available funds for the amount of the purchase price therefor. The Company shall also deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Representatives for the accounts of the several Underwriters, certificates or general statements of book entry account representing the Optional Shares the Underwriters have agreed to purchase at the First Closing Date or the applicable Option Closing Date, as the case may be, against the release of a wire transfer of immediately available funds for the amount of the purchase price therefor. The certificates for the Offered Shares shall be in definitive form and registered in such names and denominations as the Representatives shall have requested at least two full business days prior to the First Closing Date (or the applicable Option Closing Date, as the case may be) and shall be made available for inspection on the business day preceding the First Closing Date (or the applicable Option Closing Date, as the case may be) at a location in New York City as the Representatives may designate. Time shall be of the essence, and delivery at the time and place specified in this Agreement is a further condition to the obligations of the Underwriters.

Section 3. Additional Covenants of the Company. The Company further covenants and agrees with each Underwriter as follows:

(a) Continued Compliance with Securities Laws. The Company will comply with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so as to permit the completion of the distribution of the Offered Shares as contemplated by this Agreement, the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will, during the period when a prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act or any similar rule), file on a timely basis with the Commission and the NASDAQ all reports and documents required to be filed under the Exchange Act.

(b) Delivery of Registration Statement, Time of Sale Prospectus and Prospectus. The Company shall furnish to the Underwriters in New York City, without charge, prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the business day next succeeding the date of this Agreement and during the period when a prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act or any similar rule) in connection with sales of the Offered Shares, as many copies of the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus and any supplements and amendments thereto or to the Registration Statement as you may reasonably request.

(c) Consent to Amendments and Supplements. The Company shall not amend or supplement the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus (including any amendment or supplement through incorporation by reference of any report filed under the Exchange Act) during the period when a prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act or any similar rule), unless the Representatives shall previously have been advised thereof and shall have provided their written consent thereto. Before making, preparing, using, authorizing, approving or referring to any amendment or supplement, the Company will furnish to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters a copy of such amendment or supplement for review and will not make, prepare, use, authorize, approve or refer to any such amendment or supplement to which the Representatives reasonably object within a reasonable amount of time. The Company shall file with the Commission within the applicable period specified in Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act any prospectus required to be filed pursuant to such Rule.

(d) Amendments and Supplements to Time of Sale Prospectus. If the Time of Sale Prospectus is being used to solicit offers to buy the Offered Shares at a time when the Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers, and any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement

the Time of Sale Prospectus so that the Time of Sale Prospectus does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when delivered to a prospective purchaser, not misleading, or if any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which the Time of Sale Prospectus conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement, or if, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Prospectus to comply with Applicable Law, the Company shall (subject to Section 3(c) and Section 3(i) hereof) promptly prepare, file with the Commission and furnish, at its own expense, to the Underwriters and to any dealer upon request, either amendments or supplements to the Time of Sale Prospectus so that the statements in the Time of Sale Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when delivered to a prospective purchaser, not misleading or so that the Time of Sale Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will no longer conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, or so that the Time of Sale Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will comply with Applicable Law.

(e) Amendments and Supplements to the Prospectus and Other Securities Act Matters. If any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus so that the Prospectus does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus is delivered (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act or any similar rule) to a purchaser, not misleading, or if in the opinion of the Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters it is otherwise necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with Applicable Law, the Company agrees (subject to Section 3(c) and Section 3(i)) to promptly prepare, file with the Commission and furnish, at its own expense, to the Underwriters and to any dealer upon request, amendments or supplements to the Prospectus so that the statements in the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus is delivered (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act or any similar rule) to a purchaser, be misleading or so that the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will comply with Applicable Law. Neither the Representatives’ consent to, nor delivery of, any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of the Company’s obligations under Section 3(c) or Section 3(i).

(f) Blue Sky Compliance. The Company shall cooperate with the Representatives and with counsel to the Underwriters in connection with the qualification of the Offered Shares under the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of U.S. state or non-U.S. jurisdictions as the Representatives may request and continue such qualification in effect so long as reasonably required for the distribution of the Offered Shares. The Company will advise the Representatives promptly of the suspension of any such exemption relating to the Offered Shares for offering, sale or trading in any jurisdiction that the Company has been informed by the Representatives is a jurisdiction into which Shares were sold by the Underwriters or any initiation or threat of any proceeding for any such purpose, in each case, of which it becomes aware, and in the event of the issuance of any order suspending such exemption, the Company shall use its best efforts to obtain the withdrawal thereof at the earliest possible moment.

The Company shall furnish to each Underwriter, without charge, as many copies of any free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of, or used by

the Company, as such Underwriter may reasonably request. If at any time when a prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act or any similar rule) in connection with sales of the Offered Shares (but in any event if at any time through and including the First Closing Date) there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which any free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Company conflicted or would conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement or included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at such time, not misleading, the Company shall promptly amend or supplement such free writing prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict so that the statements in such free writing prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at such time, not misleading, as the case may be; provided, however, that prior to amending or supplementing any such free writing prospectus, the Company shall furnish to the Representatives for review, a reasonable amount of time prior to the proposed time of filing or use thereof, a copy of such proposed amended or supplemented free writing prospectus, and the Company shall not file, use or refer to any such amended or supplemented free writing prospectus without the Representatives’ prior written consent.

If the Commission shall enter any such stop order at any time, the Company will use its best efforts to obtain the lifting of such order at the earliest possible moment. Additionally, the Company agrees that it shall comply with all applicable provisions of Rule 424(b), Rule 433 and Rule 430B under the Securities Act and will use its reasonable efforts to confirm that any filings made by the Company under Rule 424(b) or Rule 433 were received in a timely manner by the Commission.

The Company hereby acknowledges that the only information that the Representatives have furnished to the Company expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any free writing prospectus that the Company has filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Securities Act, or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement to the foregoing) are the statements set forth in the first paragraph under the heading “Underwriting–Commissions and Discounts,” the information in the second, third and fourth paragraphs under the heading “Underwriting–Price Stabilization, Short Positions” and the information under the heading “Underwriting–Electronic Distribution” in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus. The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 9(b) shall be in addition to any liabilities that each Underwriter may otherwise have.

(c) Notifications and Other Indemnification Procedures. As promptly as reasonably practicable after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action for which such indemnified party is entitled to indemnification under this Section 9, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof in writing; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability under Section 9(a) or (a) above unless and only to the extent it is materially prejudiced by such failure (through the forfeiture of substantive 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 Section 9(a) or (a) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may elect, jointly with any other indemnifying party 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 reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, and the indemnified party shall have been advised by counsel that 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 one or more legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, or (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after receipt by the indemnifying party of notice of the institution of such action, then, in each such case, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties and such indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to defend such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties at the expense of the indemnifying party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and approval by such indemnified party of counsel appointed to defend such action, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 9 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that in connection with such action the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) in any one action or separate but substantially similar actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, designated by the Representatives in the case of Section 9(a) or by the Company in the case of Section 11(b), representing the indemnified parties under such Section 9(a) or (a), as the case may be, who are parties to such action or actions), (ii) the indemnifying party has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party or (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after 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 and shall be paid as they are incurred. After such notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party, the indemnifying party will not be liable for the costs and expenses of any settlement of such action effected by such indemnified party without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), unless such indemnified party waived in writing its rights under this Section 9, in which case the indemnified party may effect such a settlement without such consent.

(d) Settlements. No indemnifying party shall be liable under this Section 9 for any settlement of any claim or action (or threatened claim or action) effected without its written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if a claim or action settled with its written consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff with respect to any such claim or action, each indemnifying party jointly and severally agrees, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth above, to indemnify and hold harmless each indemnified party from and against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities (and legal and other expenses as set forth above) incurred 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 this Section 11, 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 or disputed in good faith the indemnified party’s entitlement to such reimbursement prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement or compromise of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the indemnified party is or could have been a party, or indemnity could have been sought hereunder by the indemnified party, unless such settlement (A) includes an unconditional written release of the indemnified party, in form and substance satisfactory to the indemnified party, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (B) does not include any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of the indemnified party.

(e) Contribution. In circumstances in which the indemnity agreements provided for in this Section 9 are unavailable to, or insufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), each indemnifying party, in order to provide for just and equitable contributions, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, from the Offering or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions or alleged statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the Offering (before deducting expenses, but after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions) received by the Company bear to the total discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or the Underwriters pursuant to Section 9(b) above, on the other hand, the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission or alleged statement or omissions, and any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances.

(f) Equitable Consideration. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution determined pursuant to Section 9(e) were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in Section 9(e). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9, no Underwriter shall be obligated to make contributions hereunder that in the aggregate exceed the total discounts, commissions and other compensation received by such Underwriter under this Agreement, less the aggregate amount of any damages that the Underwriters have otherwise been required to pay by reason of the untrue or alleged untrue statements or the omissions or alleged omissions to state a material fact. 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. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 9 are several, and not joint, in proportion to their respective commitments as set forth opposite their names in Schedule A. For purposes of Section 9(f), each director, officer and employee of an Underwriter, and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director, officer and employee of the Company, 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, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

Section 10. Default of One or More of the Several Underwriters. If, on the First Closing Date or any Option Closing Date any one or more of the several Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Offered Shares that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate number of Offered Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase does not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of the Offered Shares to be purchased on such date, the Representatives may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Offered Shares by other persons, including any of the Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated,

severally and not jointly, in the proportions that the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite their respective names on Schedule A bears to the aggregate number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as may be specified by the Representatives with the consent of the non-defaulting Underwriters, to purchase the Offered Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date. If, on the First Closing Date or any Option Closing Date any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Offered Shares and the aggregate number of Offered Shares with respect to which such default occurs exceeds 10% of the aggregate number of Offered Shares to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives and the Company for the purchase of such Offered Shares are not made within 48 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 4, Section 7, and Section 9 shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. In any such case either the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to postpone the First Closing Date or the applicable Option Closing Date, as the case may be, but in no event for longer than seven days in order that the required changes, if any, to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or any other documents or arrangements may be effected.

As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” shall be deemed to include any person substituted for a defaulting Underwriter under this Section 10. Any action taken under this Section 10 shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

Section 11. Default by the Company. If the Company shall fail at the First Closing Date or any Option Closing Date, as the case may be, to sell the number of Offered Shares that it is obligated to sell hereunder, then this Agreement shall terminate without any liability on the part of any non-defaulting party; provided, however, that the provisions of Sections 1, 4, 7, 9, 10, 13 and 17 shall remain in full force and effect. No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve the Company from liability, if any, in respect of such default.

Section 12. Termination. The Representatives may terminate this Agreement at any time prior to the Closing Date by written notice to the Company if any of the events described in Sections 6(j) (No Material Adverse Change or Ratings Agency Change), 6(k) (No Hostilities) or 6(l) (No Suspension in Trading; Banking Moratorium) shall have occurred or if any of the other conditions set forth in Section 6 hereof are not satisfied or waived at or prior to the Closing Date. Any termination pursuant to this Section 12 shall be without liability on the part of (a) the Company to the Underwriters, except that the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the expenses of the Underwriters pursuant to Section 4 and Section 7 hereof or (b) the Underwriters to the Company, except, in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b), that the provisions of Section 9 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination.

Section 13. Survival. The representations and warranties, covenants, indemnities and contribution and expense reimbursement provisions and other agreements of the parties hereto set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, and will survive, regardless of (i) any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of such party, (ii) the acceptance of the Offered Shares, and payment for them hereunder, and (iii) any termination of this Agreement.

Section 14. No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. The Company hereby acknowledges that the Underwriters are acting solely as underwriters in connection with the purchase and sale of the Offered Shares. The Company further acknowledges that the Underwriters are acting pursuant to a contractual relationship created solely by this Agreement entered into on an arm’s length basis, and in no event do the parties intend that the Underwriters act or be responsible as a fiduciary to either the Company or its management, stockholders or creditors or any other person in connection with any activity that the Underwriters may undertake or have undertaken in furtherance of the purchase and sale of the Securities, either before or after the date hereof. The Underwriters hereby expressly disclaim any fiduciary or similar obligations to the Company, either in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions, and the Company hereby confirms their understanding and agreement to that effect. The Company and the Underwriters agree that they are each responsible for making their own independent judgments with respect to any such transactions and that any opinions or views expressed by the Underwriters to the Company regarding such transactions, including, but not limited to, any opinions or views with respect to the price or market for the Shares, do not constitute advice or recommendations to the Company. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against the Underwriters with respect to any breach or alleged breach of any fiduciary or similar duty to the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions.

Section 15. Notices. All communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed, hand delivered, telecopied or transmitted by facsimile and confirmed to the parties hereto as follows:

Any party hereto may change the address for receipt of communications by giving written notice to the others.

Section 16. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, including any substitute Underwriters pursuant to Section 10 hereof, and to the benefit of the affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and controlling persons referred to in Section 9, and in each case their respective successors, and personal representatives, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder. The term “successors” shall not include any purchaser of the Offered Shares as such from any of the Underwriters merely by reason of such purchase.

Section 17. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. Each of the Company and the Underwriters hereby expressly and irrevocably (i) submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions, and (ii) waive (a) their right to a trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, the Transactions or any course of conduct, course of dealing, statements (whether verbal or written) or actions of the Underwriters or the Company, as applicable, and for any counterclaim related to any of the foregoing and (b) any obligation which it may have or hereafter may have to the laying of venue of any such litigation brought in any such court referred to above and any claim that any such litigation has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Section 18. General Provisions. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement and supersedes all prior written or oral and all contemporaneous oral agreements, understandings and negotiations with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each one of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement may not be amended or modified unless in writing by all of the parties hereto, and no condition herein (express or implied) may be waived unless waived in writing by each party whom the condition is meant to benefit. The Section headings herein are for the convenience of the parties only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 19. Separability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their reasonable best efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that it is a sophisticated business person who was adequately represented by counsel during negotiations regarding the provisions hereof, including, without limitation, the indemnification and contribution provisions of Section 9, and is fully informed regarding said provisions. Each of the parties hereto further acknowledges that the provisions of Section 9 hereof fairly allocates the risks in light of the ability of the parties to investigate the Company, its affairs and its business in order to assure that adequate disclosure has been made in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, each free writing prospectus and the Prospectus (and any amendments and supplements to the foregoing), as contemplated by the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, kindly sign and return to the Company the enclosed copies hereof, whereupon this instrument, along with all counterparts hereof, shall become a binding agreement in accordance with its terms.

The foregoing Underwriting Agreement is hereby confirmed and accepted by the Representatives in New York, New York as of the date first above written.

Acting individually and as Representatives of the several Underwriters named in the attached Schedule A.

The undersigned is an owner of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (“Shares”) or of securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Shares. The Company proposes to conduct a public offering of Shares (the “Offering”) for which Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (“Merrill Lynch”) and Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies”) will act as the representatives of the underwriters (the “Representatives”). The undersigned recognizes that the Offering will benefit each of the Company and the undersigned. The undersigned acknowledges that the underwriters are relying on the representations and agreements of the undersigned contained in this letter agreement in conducting the Offering and, at a subsequent date, in entering into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) and other underwriting arrangements with the Company with respect to the Offering.

Annex A sets forth definitions for capitalized terms used in this letter agreement that are not defined in the body of this agreement. Those definitions are a part of this agreement. Capitalized terms not defined herein or in Annex A shall have the meanings ascribed in the Underwriting Agreement.

In consideration of the foregoing, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees that, during the Lock-up Period, the undersigned will not (and will cause any Family Member not to), without the prior written consent of the Representatives which may withhold its consent in its sole discretion:

The foregoing will not apply to (i) the transfer of Shares to the undersigned’s affiliates or direct or indirect stockholders, members and partners and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, or to any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by, or under the common control or management with, the undersigned, provided that such affiliate, partner, former partner, member, former member, investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by, or under the common control or management with, the undersigned agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein and provided, further, that no filing under Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall be required or voluntarily made in connection with any such transfer, (ii) the establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of Shares, provided that such plan does not provide for the transfer of Shares during the Lock-up Period and no public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act, if any, is required of or voluntarily made by or on behalf of the undersigned or the Company regarding the establishment of such plan, or (iii) the establishment of a tax planning agreement for the transfer of shares, provided that such agreement does not provide for the transfer of shares during the Lock-up Period and no public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act, if any, is required of or voluntarily made by or on behalf of the undersigned or the Company regarding the establishment of such agreement. The foregoing restrictions shall also not apply to the transfer of Shares or Related Securities by gift, or by will or intestate succession to a Family Member or to a trust whose beneficiaries consist exclusively of one or more of the undersigned and/or a Family Member; provided, however, that in any such case, it shall be a condition to such transfer that:

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, if, at any time during the Lock-up Period, there is any release from the terms of this letter agreement granted to any holder of at least one percent of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock other than the undersigned relating to the lockup restrictions set forth above for shares of the Company’s Common Stock, the same percentage of shares of the Company’s Common Stock held by the undersigned (the “Prorata Release”) shall be released on the same terms from any remaining lockup restrictions set forth herein; provided, however, that such Prorata Release shall not be applied in the event of an early release from this letter agreement granted to a party (who is an individual and not an entity) due to circumstances of an emergency or hardship as determined by the Representatives in their sole judgment.

The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar during the Lock-up Period against the transfer of Shares or Related Securities held by the undersigned and the undersigned’s Family Members, if any, except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

With respect to the Offering, the undersigned waives any registration rights relating to registration under the Securities Act of the offer and sale of any Shares and/or any Related Securities owned either of record or beneficially by the undersigned, including any rights to receive notice of the Offering.

The undersigned confirms that the undersigned has not, and has no knowledge that any Family Member has, directly or indirectly, taken any action designed to or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale of the Shares. The undersigned will not, and will cause any Family Member not to take, directly or indirectly, any such action.

This letter agreement will automatically terminate and the undersigned will be released from all obligations hereunder if (i) the closing of the Offering shall not have occurred on or before March 31, 2016, (ii) the registration statement filed with the Commission with respect to the Offering is withdrawn, (iii) the Underwriting Agreement is executed but is terminated (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) prior to the payment for and delivery of the Shares to be sold in the Offering or (iv) the Underwriters advise the Company, or the Company advises the Underwriters, prior to the execution of the Underwriting Agreement, that they have determined not to proceed with the Offering. Whether or not the Offering occurs as currently contemplated or at all depends on market conditions and other factors. The Offering will only be made pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Underwriters.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power, capacity and authority to enter into this letter agreement. This letter agreement is irrevocable and will be binding on the undersigned and the successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns of the undersigned.

This letter agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

For purposes of the letter agreement to which this Annex A is attached and of which it is made a part:

Capitalized terms not defined in this Annex A shall have the meanings given to them in the body of this lock-up agreement.

I, David Duckworth, Chief Financial Officer of Acadia Healthcare Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), do hereby certify, pursuant to Section 6(e) of the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”), dated January 6, 2016, among the Company and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Jefferies LLC, as representatives of the underwriters (the “Underwriters”), relating to an offering of up to 11,500,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”) of the Company, as described in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus (as such terms are defined in the Underwriting Agreement), as follows:

This certificate is being furnished to the Underwriters to assist them in conducting and documenting their investigation of the Company and its subsidiaries in connection with the offering of the Shares.

ACADIA HEALTHCARE COMPANY, INC.

By:
	Name:	David Duckworth
	Title:	Chief Financial Officer

We have not verified, are not passing upon and do not assume any responsibility for, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus, except as stated in paragraph 10 above. We have participated, however, in the preparation of the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus during the course of which preparation we examined various documents and other papers and participated in conferences with officers and representatives of the Company, PiC, CRC and Priory, and the representatives of each of their respective independent registered public accounting firms, and your representatives and counsel, at which conferences the contents of the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus including all documents filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and deemed incorporated by reference therein were discussed, reviewed and revised. On the basis of the information that was developed in the course of our participation, considered in light of our understanding of applicable law and the experience we have gained through our practice, no facts have come to our attention that lead us to believe that the Registration Statement (including any document filed under the Exchange Act and deemed incorporated by reference therein) at the time the Registration Statement became effective contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or that the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto (including any document filed under the Exchange Act and deemed incorporated by reference therein) as of its date and the date hereof contained or contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or that, as of the Applicable Time, the Time of Sale Prospectus contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (except that in each case we do not make any statement as to the financial statements, any notes thereto, schedules and other financial or statistical information derived therefrom and included in or incorporated by reference into or omitted from the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus, or the Prospectus, including, without limitation, such financial or statistical information provided in an interactive data format using XBRL or any statements made in the exhibits thereto).

We can confirm that the statements contained in the section headed “U.K. Overview” beginning on page 17 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (the “Regulatory Overview”) are accurate insofar as they apply to Partnerships in Care Property 1 Limited, Priory Group No. 1 Limited and their respective UK subsidiaries.

We have not reviewed any documents other than the Regulatory Overview for the purposes of this Letter of Comfort and we express no opinion as to any agreement, instrument or other document other than as specified in this Letter of Comfort.

This Letter of Comfort is given only with respect to English, Welsh and Scottish law in force at the date of this Letter of Comfort and as applied by English, Welsh and Scottish courts. We give no opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdictions or the application of English, Welsh, Scottish or any other law by any other courts or on the enforceability of judgments of any other courts.

This Letter of Comfort is given only in relation to the content of the Regulatory Overview on the date of this Letter of Comfort and we do not assume any obligation to update this Letter of Comfort or to inform you of any changes to any of the facts or laws or other matters referred to in this Letter of Comfort.
