This Agreement, the Custody Agreement and the Selling Stockholder Lock-Up Agreement have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Selling Stockholder, and are the valid and binding agreements of the Selling Stockholder, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity, and except insofar as rights to indemnification and contribution contained herein may be limited by federal or state securities laws or related public policy.

     (c) The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Custody Agreement, and the Selling Stockholder Lock-Up Agreement, the sale and delivery of the Selling Stockholder Shares to be sold by the Selling Stockholder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and therein, and compliance by the Selling Stockholder with its obligations hereunder and thereunder do not and will not, whether with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both, conflict with or constitute a breach of, or default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any tax, lien, charge or encumbrance upon the Selling Stockholder Shares to be sold by the Selling Stockholder or any property or assets of the Selling Stockholder pursuant to any contract, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan or credit agreement, note, license, lease or other agreement or instrument to which the Selling Stockholder is a party or by which the Selling Stockholder may be bound, or to which any of the property or assets of the Selling Stockholder is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of the charter or by-laws or other organizational instrument of the Selling Stockholder, if applicable, or any applicable treaty, law, statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order, writ or decree of any government, government instrumentality or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Selling Stockholder or any of its properties.

     (d) The Selling Stockholder has the legal right and power, and all authorizations and approvals required by law, to enter into this Agreement, the Custody Agreement and the Selling Stockholder Lock-Up Agreement and to sell, transfer and deliver the Selling Stockholder Shares to be sold by such Selling Stockholder.

     (f) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the consummation by the Selling Stockholder of the transactions contemplated herein, except such as may have been obtained under the Act and such as may be required under the securities or Blue Sky laws of any jurisdiction in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Selling Stockholder Shares by the Placement Agent and such other approvals as have been obtained.

     (g) The information, if any, in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus that relates to the Selling Stockholder, and that has been furnished to the Company in writing by the Selling Stockholder expressly for use therein does not, and will not on the date of the execution of this Agreement or on the Closing Date contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

     5. Agreements of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees with the Placement Agent as follows:

     (a) When the Registration Statement has become effective, and if Rule 430A is used or the filing of the Prospectus is otherwise required under Rule 424(b), the Company will file the Prospectus (properly completed if Rule 430A has been used) pursuant to Rule 424(b) within the prescribed time period and will provide a copy of such filing to the Placement Agent promptly following such filing.

     (b) The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Registration Statement effective at all times during the period commencing on the effective date of the Registration Statement and continuing thereafter until the closing of the sale of the Units and for at least six months thereafter, and until such later date that either (i) all Warrants shall have either been exercised in full or terminated or (ii) in the opinion of counsel, an exemption from the registration requirements of applicable federal and state securities laws is available for the issuance of all Securities and the resale thereof (the “Registration Period”).¹

     (c) The Company will not, during the Registration Period, file any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, except as required by law, unless a copy thereof shall first have been submitted to the Placement Agent within a reasonable period of time prior to the filing thereof and the Placement Agent shall not have reasonably and timely objected thereto in good faith.

     (d) The Company will notify the Placement Agent promptly, and will, if requested, confirm such notification in writing, (1) when any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement becomes effective at any time during the Registration Period; (2) of any request by the Commission for any amendments to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplements to the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses or for additional information at any time during the Registration Period; (3) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose or the threat thereof, at any time during the Registration Period; (4) of becoming aware of the occurrence of any event during the Registration Period that in the judgment of the Company makes any statement made in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus

untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading; and (5) of receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to any suspension of the qualification of the Securities for offer and sale in any jurisdiction. If at any time the Commission shall issue any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement in connection with the offering contemplated hereby, the Company will make every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest possible moment. If the Company has omitted any information from the Registration Statement, pursuant to Rule 430A, it will use its best efforts to comply with the provisions of and make all requisite filings with the Commission pursuant to said Rule 430A and to notify the Placement Agent promptly of all such filings.

     (e) If, at any time when a Prospectus relating to the Securities is required to be delivered under the Act, the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any event as a result of which the Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, would, in the reasonable judgment of counsel to the Company or counsel to the Placement Agent, include any 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 under which they were made, not misleading, or the Registration Statement, as then amended or supplemented, would, in the reasonable judgment of counsel to the Company or counsel to the Placement Agent, include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or if for any other reason it is necessary, in the reasonable judgment of counsel to the Company or counsel to the Placement Agent, at any time to amend or supplement the Prospectus or the Registration Statement to comply with the Act or the Rules and Regulations, the Company will promptly notify the Placement Agent and, subject to Section 5(b) hereof, will promptly prepare and file with the Commission, at the Company’s expense, an amendment to the Registration Statement or an amendment or supplement to the Prospectus that corrects such statement or omission or effects such compliance and will deliver to the Placement Agent, without charge, such number of copies thereof as the Placement Agent may reasonably request.

     (g) The Company will comply with all the undertakings contained in the Registration Statement.

     (h) The Company will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

     (i) The Company will retain in accordance with the Rules and Regulations all Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses not required to be filed pursuant to the Rules and Regulations.

     (j) Prior to the sale of the Units to the Investors, the Company will cooperate with the Placement Agent and its counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of the Securities for offer and sale under the state securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Placement Agent may reasonably and timely request; provided, that in no event shall the Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action which would subject it to general service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject.

     (k) The Company will apply the net proceeds from the offering and sale of the Units in substantially the manner set forth in the Prospectus under the caption “Use of Proceeds.”

     (l) The Company will take all actions necessary to ensure that the Shares and the Warrant Shares are listed or approved for listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market at the time of Closing, with such listing to occur at the Closing or as soon as practicable thereafter.

     (m) The Company will not at any time, directly or indirectly, take any action intended, or which might reasonably be expected, to cause or result in, or which will constitute, stabilization of the price of its Common Stock to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Securities.

     (n) The Company shall comply with all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Company Lock-Up Agreement, including without limitation, the covenant that it shall not consent to any request by any other party subject to a lock-up agreement to permit the sale by such party of any shares of Common Stock.

     6. Agreement of the Placement Agent. The Placement Agent represents and warrants to and agrees with the Company that it shall not include any “issuer information” (as defined in Rule 433 under the Act) in any “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act) used or referred to by the Placement Agent without the prior consent of the Company (any such issuer information with respect to whose use the Company has given its consent, “Permitted Issuer Information”); provided that (i) no such consent shall be required with respect to any such issuer information contained in any document filed by the Company with the Commission prior to the use of such free writing prospectus and (ii) “issuer information,” as used in this Section 6 shall not be deemed to include information prepared by the Placement Agent on the basis of or derived from issuer information.

Subject to compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(f)(2)(D), in addition to the expenses set forth in this Section 7, the Company also agrees to reimburse the Placement Agent’s out-of-pocket accountable expenses actually incurred by the Placement Agent or persons associated with the Placement Agent (with supporting invoices/receipts) up to a maximum of $50,000. Such reimbursement shall be payable immediately upon (but only in the event of) the Closing. Placement Agent acknowledges the receipt of an advance of $25,000 against such expenses.

     (a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Placement Agent, the directors, officers, employees and agents of the Placement Agent and each person, if any, who controls the Placement Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), from and against any and all losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages, joint or several, (including any and all investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted), to which it, or any of them, may become subject under the Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, liabilities, expenses or damages arise out of or are based on (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement made by the Company in Section 3 of this Agreement, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in (A) any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, (B) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment of supplement thereto, or (C) any Permitted Issuer Information used or referred to in any “free writing prospectus” (as defined under Rule 405 under the Act) used or referred to by the Placement Agent and (D) any application or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, executed by the Company based upon written information furnished by or on behalf of the Company filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Securities under

the securities or Blue Sky laws thereof or filed with the Commission or any securities association or securities exchange (each, an “Application”), or (iii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Permitted Issuer Information or any Application a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable to the extent that such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage arises from the sale of the Units in the public offering to any person and is based solely on an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance on and in conformity with information relating to the Placement Agent furnished in writing to the Company by the Placement Agent expressly for inclusion in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Permitted Issuer Information or any Application. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have. The Company will not, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Placement Agent or any person who controls the Placement Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act is a party to each claim, action, suit or proceeding), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the Placement Agent and each such controlling person from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding.

     (b) Each of the Selling Stockholders, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Placement Agent, the directors, officers, employees and agents of the Placement Agent and each person, if any, who controls the Placement Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages, joint or several, (including any and all investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted), to which it, or any of them, may become subject under the Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, liabilities, expenses or damages arise out of or are based on any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement made by the Selling Stockholders in Section 4 of this Agreement. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Selling Stockholders may otherwise have. None of the Selling Stockholders will, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Placement Agent or any person who controls the Placement Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act is a party to each claim, action, suit or proceeding), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the Placement Agent and each such controlling person from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding. The indemnification obligation of each of the Selling Stockholders under this Section 9 shall not exceed the aggregate total net proceeds from the offering received by such Selling Stockholder.

     (c) The Placement Agent will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Selling Stockholders, each person, if any, who controls the Company or any of the Selling Stockholders within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, each director of the Company and each officer of the Company who signs the Registration Statement to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the Placement Agent, but only insofar as losses, claims, liabilities, expenses or damages arise out of or are based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance on and in conformity with information relating to the Placement Agent furnished in writing to the Company by the Placement Agent expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Placement Agent might otherwise have. The Company and the Selling Stockholders acknowledge that, for all purposes under this Agreement, the statements set forth under the heading “Plan of Distribution” in any Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus constitute the only information relating to the Placement Agent furnished in writing to the Company by the Placement Agent expressly for inclusion in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

     (d) Any party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Section 9 will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or parties under this Section 10, notify each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party under the foregoing provisions of this Section 10 unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses by the indemnifying party. If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of its commencement, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it elects by delivering written notice to the indemnified party promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the indemnified party, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of the action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense, the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal or other expenses except as provided below and except for the reasonable costs of investigation subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense. The indemnified party will have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that a conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party that would prevent the counsel selected by the indemnifying party from representing the indemnified party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (3) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same

jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties. All such fees, disbursements and other charges will be reimbursed by the indemnifying party promptly as they are incurred. Neither the Company not the Selling Stockholders will, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification has been sought hereunder (whether or not such Placement Agent or any person who controls the Placement Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act is a party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such Placement Agent and each such controlling person from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding. An indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld).

     (e) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 9 is applicable in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable from the Company, the Selling Stockholders or the Placement Agent, the Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Placement Agent will contribute to the total losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages (including any investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, but after deducting any contribution received by the Company or the Selling Stockholders from persons other than the Placement Agent such as persons who control the Company within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act, officers of the Company who signed the Registration Statement and directors of the Company, who also may be liable for contribution) to which the Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Placement Agent may be subject in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Stockholders, on the one hand, and the Placement Agent on the other. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting Company expenses) received by the Company and the Selling Stockholders as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus bear to the fee received by the Placement Agent hereunder. If, but only if, the allocation provided by the foregoing sentence is not permitted by applicable law, the allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence but also the relative fault of the Company and the Selling Stockholders, on the one hand, and the Placement Agent on the other, with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations with respect to such offering. Such relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the 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, the Selling Stockholders, or the Placement Agent, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Placement Agent agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 10(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by

any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 10(d) shall be deemed to include, for purpose of this Section 10(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10(d), the Placement Agent shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the fee received by it, and no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 10(d), any person who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act will have the same rights to contribution as that party, and each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the provisions hereof. Any party entitled to contribution, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made under this Section 10(d), will notify any such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission so to notify will not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have under this Section 10(d). No party will be liable for contribution with respect to any action or claim settled without its written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld).

     11. Termination. The obligations of the Placement Agent under this Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing Date, by notice to the Company from the Placement Agent, without liability on the part of the Placement Agent to the Company if, prior to delivery and payment for the Units, in the sole judgment of the Placement Agent (i) trading in the Common Stock of the Company shall have been suspended by the Commission or by the OTC Bulletin Board or The Nasdaq Capital Market, as applicable, (ii) trading in securities generally on the OTC Bulletin Board or The Nasdaq Capital Market, as applicable, shall have been suspended or limited or minimum or maximum prices shall have been generally established on any of such exchanges, or additional material governmental restrictions, not in force on the date of this Agreement, shall have been imposed upon trading in securities generally by any of such exchanges or by order of the Commission or any court or other governmental authority, (iii) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared by Federal or New York State authorities, or (iv) any material adverse change in the financial or securities markets in the United States or any new outbreak or material escalation of hostilities or declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war or other calamity or crisis shall have occurred, the effect of any of which is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Placement Agent, impracticable or inadvisable to market the Units on the terms and in the manner contemplated by the Prospectus.

     12. No Fiduciary Duty. The Company and the Selling Stockholders acknowledge and agree that in connection with the offering and sale of the Units or any other services the Placement Agent may be deemed to be providing hereunder, notwithstanding any preexisting relationship, advisory or otherwise, between the parties or any oral representations or assurances previously or subsequently made by the Placement Agent: (i) no fiduciary or agency relationship between the Company, the Selling Stockholders and any other person, on the one hand, and the Placement Agent, on the other, exists; (ii) the Placement Agent is not acting as an advisor, expert or otherwise, to the Company or the Selling Stockholders, including, without limitation, with respect to the determination of the offering price of the Units, and such relationship between the Company and the Selling

Stockholders, on the one hand, and the Placement Agent, on the other, is entirely and solely commercial, based on arms-length negotiations; (iii) any duties and obligations that the Placement Agent may have to the Company or the Selling Stockholders shall be limited to those duties and obligations specifically stated herein; and (iv) the Placement Agent and its affiliates may have interests that differ from those of the Company and the Selling Stockholders. The Company and the Selling Stockholders hereby waive any claims that the Company and the Selling Stockholders, respectively, may have against the Placement Agent with respect to any breach of fiduciary duty in connection with this offering.

     13. Third Party Beneficiaries. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Investors shall be third party beneficiaries to this Agreement.

     14. Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder will be in writing, will be mailed (a) if within the domestic United States by first-class registered or certified airmail, or nationally recognized overnight express courier, postage prepaid, or by facsimile or (b) if delivered from outside the United States, by International Federal Express or facsimile, and (c) will be deemed given (i) if delivered by first-class registered or certified mail domestic, three business days after so mailed, (ii) if delivered by nationally recognized overnight carrier, one business day after so mailed, (iii) if delivered by International Federal Express, two business days after so mailed and (iv) if delivered by facsimile, upon electric confirmation of receipt and will be delivered and addressed as follows: (a) if to Emory University, at Administration Building, 201 Dowman Drive, Atlanta, Georgia 30322, (b) if to the Company or to the other Selling Stockholders, at the office of the Company, GeoVax Labs, Inc., 1900 Lake Park Drive, Suite 380, Smyrna, Georgia, 30080, Attention: Chief Executive Officer or (b) if to the Placement Agent, 400 Poydras Street, Suite 1501, New Orleans, Louisiana 70130, Attention: Gary Meringer.

     15. Survival. The respective representations, warranties, agreements, covenants, indemnities and other statements of the Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Placement Agent set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company, any of its officers or directors, the Selling Stockholders, the Placement Agent or any controlling person referred to in Section 10 hereof and (ii) delivery of and payment for the Units and the Shares. The respective agreements, covenants, indemnities and other statements set forth in Sections 5, 6, and 10 hereof shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

     16. Successors. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the Placement Agent, the Selling Stockholders, the Company and their respective successors and legal representatives, and nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement, or any provisions herein contained, this Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof being intended to be and being for the sole and exclusive benefit of such persons and for the benefit of no other person except that (i) the indemnification and contribution contained in Sections 10(a) and (d) of this Agreement shall also be for the benefit of the directors, officers, employees and agents of the Placement Agent and any person or persons who control the Placement Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and (ii) the indemnification and contribution contained in Sections 10(b) and (d) of this Agreement shall also be for the benefit of the directors of the Company, the officers of the Company who have signed the Registration

Statement and any person or persons who control the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act.

     17. Applicable Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of Wilmington, Delaware. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of Wilmington, Delaware for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of this Agreement), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If either party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Agreement, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

     18. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

     19. Entire Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Engagement Letter, Section 5 thereof is hereby terminated and of no further force or effect.
