6. Purchaser Representations and Warranties. Each Purchaser severally and not jointly represents and warrants to the Company that as of the date hereof:

(a) The Purchaser has the full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform all of its obligations hereunder and thereunder, and to purchase, acquire and accept delivery of the Units.

(b) The Units are being acquired for the Purchaser’s own account and not with a view to, or intention of, distribution thereof in violation of the 1933 Act, or any applicable state securities laws.

- 4 -

(c) The Purchaser will not make any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Units in violation of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, as amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or any applicable state securities laws.

(d) The Purchaser is sophisticated in financial matters and is able to evaluate the risks and benefits of an investment in the Units. The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that such investment is a speculative venture, involves a high degree of risk and is subject to complete risk of loss. The Purchaser has carefully considered and has, to the extent the Purchaser deems necessary, discussed with the Purchaser’s professional legal, tax, accounting and financial advisers the suitability of its investment in the Units.

(e) The Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of its investment in its Units for an indefinite period of time because the Units have not been registered under the 1933 Act and, therefore, cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the 1933 Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Purchaser: (i) understands and acknowledges that the Units being issued to the Purchaser have not been registered under the 1933 Act, nor under the securities laws of any state, nor under the laws of any other country and (ii) recognizes that no public agency has passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of any information provided to the Purchaser or the fairness of the terms of its investment in the Units.

(g) This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Purchaser does not and will not conflict with, violate or cause a breach of any agreement, contract or instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or any judgment, order or decree to which the Purchaser is subject.

(h) The Purchaser became aware of the offering of the Units other than by means of general advertising or general solicitation.

(i) The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined under the 1933 Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder, as amended by Section 413 of the Private Fund Investment Advisers Registration Act of 2010 and any applicable rules or regulations or interpretations thereof promulgated by the SEC or its staff.

(j) The Purchaser acknowledges that the certificates for the Preferred Stock and Common Stock comprising the Units will contain a legend substantially as follows:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS.

- 5 -

THE COMPANY MAY REQUEST A WRITTEN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH OPINION AND COUNSEL SHALL BE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY) TO THE EFFECT THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH AN OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE.”

Subject to any lock-up or other similar agreement that may apply to the Units, the requirement that the Units contain the legend set forth in clause (j) above shall cease and terminate upon the earlier of (i) when such shares are transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act or (ii) when such securities are transferred in any other transaction if the transferor delivers to the Company a written opinion of counsel (which opinion and counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company) to the effect that such legend is no longer necessary in order to protect the Company against a violation by it of the 1933 Act upon any sale or other disposition of such securities without registration thereunder. Upon the consummation of an event described in (i) or (ii) above, the Company, upon surrender of certificates containing such legend, shall, at its own expense, deliver to the holder of any such securities as to which the requirement for such legend shall have terminated, one or more new certificates evidencing such securities not bearing such legend.

7. Exchange for Newly Issued Securities.

At any time prior to the second anniversary of the date hereof, if the Company issues any securities (whether debt, equity or otherwise), other than pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Equity-Based Compensation Plan or the Company’s 2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (or any additional or successor employee equity compensation arrangements), on terms (economic or otherwise) that PCA Holdings, in its sole discretion, determines are more favorable than the Units, each Purchaser (including PCA Holdings) shall exchange all of its Units for such newly issued securities and any outstanding right to purchase Units shall convert into a right to purchase the newly issued securities on substantially the same terms and conditions as such issuance. Each Unit shall be valued at the then present Liquidation Value of the Preferred Stock included in such Unit. The Company shall, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 10 days prior to the to the issue of such securities, deliver written notice to each Purchaser stating (i) the terms of such securities and (ii) the Company’s calculation of the number of such securities that would be issued in exchange for one Unit. If PCA Holdings elects to exchange the Units pursuant to this Section 7, PCA Holdings shall have 10 days from the receipt of such notice from the Company to deliver notice to the Company of such determination and each Purchaser shall be required to surrender to the Company all certificate(s) evidencing the shares of Preferred Stock and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Units so exchanged in accordance with this Section 7. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Purchaser hereby agrees that PCA Holdings shall have the right to enter into such agreements, make such amendments hereto and take such other actions on behalf of such Purchaser in order to give effect to this Section 7.

8. Subsequent Securities Sales.

(a) At least five days prior to the closing of a sale of any securities of the Company (whether debt, equity or otherwise), other than pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Equity-Based Compensation Plan or the Company’s 2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (or any additional or successor employee equity compensation arrangements) that results in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $50,000,000.00 (a “Subsequent Transaction”), and for so long as the Preferred Stock remains outstanding, the Company shall give notice of such Subsequent Transaction to the Purchasers setting forth the terms and conditions of such Subsequent Transaction.

(b) Simultaneous with and subject to the closing of the Subsequent Transaction, if any, each holder of Preferred Stock shall have the right, but not the obligation:

- 7 -

(a) Default. A default by any Purchaser of its obligations under Section 2 of this Agreement shall not constitute a default by any other Purchaser under this Agreement and, except with respect to such defaulting Purchaser, shall not relieve the Company of any of its obligations to any other Purchaser under this Agreement.

(b) Choice of Law. The laws of the State of New York without reference to the conflict of laws provisions thereof, will govern all questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement.

(d) Assignment. At any time and from time to time, without the prior consent of the Company, PCA Holdings may assign all or less than all of its Option to purchase Units under this Agreement to an assignee of its choosing (an “Assignee”); provided that such Assignee executes and delivers to the Company a joinder agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, whereupon such Assignee shall become a Purchaser under this Agreement, with all the rights and obligations associated therewith.
