(j) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Custody Agreement and the Power of Attorney by such Selling Shareholder and the consummation by such Selling Shareholder of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, license or other agreement or instrument to which such Selling Shareholder is a party or by which such Selling Shareholder is bound or to which any of the property or assets of such Selling Shareholder is subject, (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the charter or by-laws (or similar organizational documents) of such Selling Shareholder, if such Selling Shareholder is a corporation, or result in any violation of the provisions of the deed of trust (or similar organizational documents) of such Selling Shareholder, if such Selling Shareholder is a trust or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over such Selling Shareholder or the property or assets of such Selling Shareholder, except in the case of clauses (i) and (iii), to the extent any such conflict, breach, violation or default would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the performance of this Agreement, the Custody Agreement or the Power of Attorney by such Selling Shareholder or the consummation by such Selling Shareholder of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

Any certificate signed by any officer of any Selling Shareholder and delivered to the Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters in connection with the offering of the Shares shall be deemed a representation and warranty by such Selling Shareholder, as to matters covered thereby, to each Underwriter.

3. Purchase of the Shares by the Underwriters. Each Selling Shareholder, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees to sell to the several Underwriters at $49.56 per share (the “Purchase Price”) the number of Shares set forth in Schedule 1 hereto opposite the name of such Selling Shareholder, and each Underwriter, upon the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the conditions hereinafter stated, agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from such Selling Shareholder at the Purchase Price the number of Shares (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as you may determine) that bears the same proportion to the number of Shares to be sold by such Selling Shareholder as the number of Shares set forth in Schedule 2 hereto opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Shares.

Each Selling Shareholder shall not be obligated to deliver any of the Shares to be delivered on the Delivery Date, except upon payment for all such Shares to be purchased on such Delivery Date from such Selling Shareholder as provided herein.

The Representatives may (but shall not be obligated to) make payment for any Shares to be purchased by any Underwriter whose funds shall not have been received by the Representatives by the Delivery Date for the account of such Underwriter, but any such payment shall not relieve such Underwriter from any of its obligations under this Agreement. Time shall be of the essence, and delivery at the time and place specified pursuant to this Agreement is a further condition of the obligation of the Underwriters hereunder. Each Selling Shareholder shall deliver the Shares through the facilities of DTC unless the Representatives shall otherwise instruct.

Show or any Blue Sky Application, any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (except in the case of the Registration Statement, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and shall reimburse each Underwriter, its directors, officers, employees, selling agents and each such controlling person promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that Underwriter, its directors, officers, employees, selling agents and each such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any such amendment or supplement thereto or in any Permitted Issuer Information, any Non-Prospectus Road Show or any Blue Sky Application, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning the Underwriters furnished to the Company through the Representatives specifically for inclusion therein, which information consists solely of the information specified in Section 10(f). The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to any Underwriter or to any director, officer, employee, selling agent or controlling person of that Underwriter.

(b) Each Selling Shareholder agrees, severally in proportion to the number of Shares to be sold by each of them hereunder, and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its directors, officers, employees, selling agents and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any loss, claim, damage, liability or action relating to purchases and sales of Shares), to which that Underwriter, director, officer, employee, selling agent or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Permitted Issuer Information, any Non-Prospectus Road Show, any Blue Sky Application or any “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405), prepared by or on behalf of such Selling Shareholder or used or referred to by such Selling Shareholder in connection with the offering of the Shares in violation of Section 7(b) (a “Selling Shareholder Free Writing Prospectus”) or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Permitted Issuer Information, any Non-Prospectus Road Show, any Blue Sky Application or any Selling Shareholder Free Writing Prospectus, any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (except in the case of the Registration Statement, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and shall reimburse each Underwriter, its directors, officers, employees, selling agents and each such controlling person promptly

 

24


upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that Underwriter, its directors, officers, employees, selling agents or controlling persons in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the liability of any Selling Shareholder pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) above, other than with respect to a Selling Shareholder Free Writing Prospectus prepared by or on behalf of such Selling Shareholder, shall be only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning such Selling Shareholder furnished to the Company or any Underwriter specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Permitted Issuer Information, any Non-Prospectus Road Show or any Blue Sky Application, which information consists solely of the information specifically regarding such Selling Shareholder appearing under the caption “Selling Shareholders” (excluding percentages). The liability of each Selling Shareholder under the indemnity agreement contained in this paragraph shall be limited to an amount equal to the total net proceeds, after underwriting discounts and commissions but before expenses, from the offering of the Shares purchased under the Agreement received by such Selling Shareholder, as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that each Selling Shareholder may otherwise have to any Underwriter or to any director, officer, employee, selling agent or controlling person of that Underwriter.

(c) Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each Selling Shareholder, their respective directors, officers and employees, and each person, if any, who controls the Company or such Selling Shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which the Company, such Selling Shareholder or any such director, officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Non-Prospectus Road Show or Blue Sky Application, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Non-Prospectus Road Show or Blue Sky Application, any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (except in the case of the Registration Statement, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning the Underwriters furnished to the Company through the Representatives specifically for inclusion therein, which information is limited to the information set forth in Section 10(f). The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that the Underwriters may otherwise have to the Company, such Selling Shareholder or any such director, officer, employee or controlling person.

 

25


(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 10 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 10, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 10 except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and, provided, further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 10. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 10 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that the indemnified party shall have the right to employ counsel to represent jointly the indemnified party and those other indemnified parties and their respective directors, officers, employees and controlling persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Section 10 if (i) the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall have so mutually agreed; (ii) the indemnifying party has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; (iii) the indemnified party and its directors, officers, employees and controlling persons shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to them that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnified parties or their respective directors, officers, employees or controlling persons, on the one hand, and the indemnifying party, on the other hand, and representation of both sets of parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, and in any such event the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall (i) without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include any findings of fact or admissions of fault, culpability or failure to act as to or by or on behalf of the indemnified party, or (ii) be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without

 

26


its written consent, but if settled with the consent of the indemnifying party or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 shall for any reason be unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 10(a), 10(b) or 10(c) in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Shareholders, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, from the offering of the Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Selling Shareholders, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Shareholders, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Shares purchased under this Agreement (after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions but before deducting expenses) received by the Selling Shareholders, as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters with respect to the Shares purchased under this Agreement, as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus, on the other hand. The 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 and the Selling Shareholders or the Underwriters, 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 Shareholders and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 10(e) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that 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, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 10(e) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 10(e), 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(e), each Underwriter shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds from the sale of the Shares underwritten by it exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, and no

 

27


Selling Shareholder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds (after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions but before deducting expenses) such Selling Shareholder received from the sale of its Shares in the Offering. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(f) The Underwriters confirm and the Company and each Selling Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that the statements regarding (i) delivery of shares by the Underwriters set forth on the cover page of, (ii) the concession figure appearing in the third paragraph under the caption “Underwriting” in, and (iii) the information contained in the twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth paragraphs relating to stabilization transactions, short positions, passive market making and electronic distribution by the Underwriters appearing under the caption “Underwriting” in, the Prospectus are correct and constitute the only information concerning the Underwriters furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the Underwriters specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Non-Prospectus Road Show.

11. Default of One or More of the Several Underwriters. If, on the Delivery Date, any one or more of the several Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Shares that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate number of Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase does not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of the Shares required to be purchased on such date by the Underwriters, the non-defaulting Underwriters may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company and the Selling Shareholders for the purchase of such Shares by other persons, including any of the Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by such Delivery Date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, in the proportions that the number of Shares set forth opposite their respective names on Schedule 1 bears to the aggregate number of Shares set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as may be specified by the non-defaulting Underwriters, to purchase the Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date. If, on the Delivery Date, any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Shares and the aggregate number of Shares with respect to which such default occurs exceeds 10% of the aggregate number of Shares required to be purchased on such date by the Underwriters, and arrangements satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriters, the Company and the Selling Shareholders for the purchase of such Shares are not made within 48 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability of any non-defaulting party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 8 and Section 10 shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. In any such case either the non-defaulting Underwriters or the Company and the Selling Shareholders shall have the right to postpone the Delivery Date, 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” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section 11. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

 

28


12. Termination. The obligations of any Underwriter hereunder may be terminated by such Underwriter by notice given to and received by the Company and the Selling Shareholders prior to delivery of and payment for the Shares if, prior to that time, (i) any of the events described in Section 9(l) shall have occurred; (ii) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on or by any of the New York Stock Exchange or The Nasdaq Stock Market; (iii) trading of any securities issued or guaranteed by the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market; (iv) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or New York State authorities; (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States, that, in the judgment of the Representatives, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Shares on the Delivery Date; or (vi) if such Underwriter shall decline to purchase the Shares for any reason permitted under this Agreement.

13. Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses. If (a) any Selling Shareholder shall fail to tender the Shares for delivery to the Underwriters by reason of any failure, refusal or inability on the part of the Company or such Selling Shareholder to perform any agreement to be performed on their part hereunder, or because any other condition of the obligations hereunder required to be fulfilled by the Company or any Selling Shareholder is not fulfilled for any reason, or (b) the Underwriters, or any of them, shall decline to purchase the Shares for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Company, in the case of such failure, refusal or inability to perform by the Company, or the relevant Selling Shareholder(s), in the case of such failure, refusal or inability to perform by such Selling Shareholder(s) will reimburse the Underwriters or such Underwriter as has so terminated this Agreement with respect to itself, severally, for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by them in connection with this Agreement and the proposed purchase of the Shares; provided that, in the case of such failure, refusal or inability to perform on the part of more than one of the Selling Shareholders, each such Selling Shareholder’s reimbursement obligation under this paragraph shall be in the same proportion as the number of Shares to be sold by such Selling Shareholder bears to the total number of Shares to be sold by all of the Selling Shareholders that fail, refuse or are unable to perform under this Agreement. In the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Underwriters, or any of them, pursuant to the previous sentence as a result of a failure, refusal or inability to perform, each as described therein, on the part of both the Company and any Selling Shareholder or Selling Shareholders, the Company shall be liable for all amounts due to the Underwriters pursuant to the previous sentence. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 11 by reason of the default of one or more Underwriters, neither the Company nor any Selling Shareholder shall be obligated to reimburse any defaulting Underwriter on account of those expenses.

14. Research Analyst Independence. The Company acknowledges that each Underwriter’s research analysts and research department is required to be independent from its investment banking division and is subject to certain regulations and internal policies, and that

 

29


each Underwriter’s research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish research reports with respect to the Company and/or the offering that differ from the views of its investment banking division. The Company and the Selling Shareholders hereby waive and release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company or the Selling Shareholders may have against any Underwriter with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by its independent research analysts and research departments may be different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to the Company or the Selling Shareholders by the Underwriter’s investment banking division. The Company and the Selling Shareholders acknowledge that each Underwriter is a full service securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities of the companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

15. No Fiduciary Duty. The Company and the Selling Shareholders acknowledge and agree that in connection with this offering, sale of the Shares or any other services the Underwriters 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 Underwriters: (i) no fiduciary or agency relationship between the Company, the Selling Shareholders and any other person, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, exists; (ii) the Underwriters are not acting as advisors, experts or otherwise, to either the Company or the Selling Shareholders, including, without limitation, with respect to the determination of the public offering price of the Shares, and such relationship between the Company and the Selling Shareholders, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, is entirely and solely commercial, based on arms-length negotiations; (iii) any duties and obligations that the Underwriters may have to the Company or Selling Shareholders shall be limited to those duties and obligations specifically stated herein; and (iv) the Underwriters and their affiliates may have interests that differ from those of the Company and the Selling Shareholders. The Company and the Selling Shareholders hereby waive any claims that the Company or the Selling Shareholders may have against the Underwriters with respect to any breach of fiduciary duty in connection with this offering.

16. Notices, Etc. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and:

(a) if to the Underwriters, shall be delivered or sent by mail or facsimile transmission to Barclays Capital Inc., 745 Seventh Avenue, New York, NY 10019, Attention: Syndicate Registration (Fax: (646) 834-8133), with a copy, in the case of any notice pursuant to Section 10(d), to Director of Litigation, Office of the General Counsel, Barclays Capital Inc., 745 Seventh Avenue, New York, NY 10019; and to Citigroup Global Markets Inc., 388 Greenwich Street, New York, NY 10013, Attention: General Counsel (Fax: (212) 816-7912);

Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, other than the persons referred to in this Section 17, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein.

19.

The undersigned understands that you, as representatives (the “Representatives”) of one or more financial institutions (each, an “Underwriter”) are expected to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) providing for the purchase by the Underwriter or Underwriters of Ordinary Shares (the “Shares”), nominal value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), of Jazz Pharmaceuticals Public Limited Company, a public limited company incorporated in Ireland (the “Company”), and that the Underwriter or Underwriters will propose to reoffer the Shares to the public (the “Offering”).

In consideration of the execution of the Underwriting Agreement by the Underwriter or Underwriters, and for other good and valuable consideration, the undersigned hereby irrevocably agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, the undersigned will not, directly or indirectly, (1) offer for sale, sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the disposition by any person at any time in the future of) any Ordinary Shares (including, without limitation, Ordinary Shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and Ordinary Shares that may be issued upon exercise of any options or warrants) or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares (other than the Shares, if any, sold by the undersigned to the Underwriters in the Offering), (2) enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of Ordinary Shares, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Ordinary Shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise, (3) make any demand for or exercise any right or cause to be filed a registration statement, including any amendments thereto, with respect to the registration of any Ordinary Shares or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares or any

 

Exhibit A


other securities of the Company or (4) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, for a period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the sixtieth day after the date of the final prospectus supplement relating to the Offering (such 60-day period, the “Lock-Up Period”). The foregoing restrictions shall not in any event apply to (a) transactions relating to any securities acquired in the Offering or in open market transactions after the completion of the Offering, (b) transfers of any securities as a bona fide gift or pledge, (c) in the case of a natural person, transfers of any securities by will or intestate succession or to any trust or partnership for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or any member of the immediate family of the undersigned, (d) in the case of a non-natural person, distributions of any securities to general or limited partners or stockholders or members of the undersigned, (e) in the case of a non-natural person, transfers of any securities (i) in connection with the sale or other bona fide transfer in a single transaction of all or substantially all of the undersigned’s capital stock, partnership interests, membership interests or other similar equity interests, as the case may be, or all or substantially all of the undersigned’s assets, in any such case not undertaken for the purpose of avoiding the restrictions imposed by this Lock-Up Letter Agreement or (ii) to another corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity so long as the transferee is an affiliate of the undersigned and such transfer is not for value, (f) any transfers of Ordinary Shares pursuant to the “net” or “cashless” exercise of outstanding options or warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares in accordance with their terms, (g) any transfers of securities pursuant to a sale or an offer to purchase 100% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, whether pursuant to a merger, tender offer or otherwise, to a third party or group of third parties or (h) any transfers of securities to the Company to satisfy tax withholding obligations pursuant to Company equity compensation plans or arrangements; provided that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (b), (c), (d) or (e), each donee, pledgee, distributee or transferee shall sign and deliver a lock-up agreement substantially in the form of this Lock-Up Letter Agreement; provided further, that any Ordinary Shares acquired upon the net or cashless exercise of options or warrants described in clause (f) above shall be subject to the restrictions imposed by this Lock-Up Letter Agreement; and provided further, that if the undersigned is an executive officer of the Company, the foregoing restrictions shall no longer apply at such time as the undersigned ceases to be an executive officer of the Company. In addition, the undersigned may transfer or distribute securities in the undersigned’s capacity as trustee (or similar capacity) under any voting or other trusts to the beneficiaries thereof or to a substitute trustee(s) or trust(s); provided that (x) each distributee or transferee (including any substitute trustee(s) or trust(s)) shall sign and deliver a lock-up agreement substantially in the form of this Lock-Up Letter Agreement and (y) no filing by the undersigned under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (a “Section 16 Filing”), shall be made during the Lock-Up Period in connection with such transfer or distribution, provided that if the undersigned sells shares to the Underwriters in the Offering, the foregoing restriction in this clause (y) shall not apply if and only if the transfer or distribution is reported on the same Section 16 filing filed by the undersigned reporting the undersigned’s sale of Shares to the Underwriters in the Offering. For the purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family” shall mean spouse, domestic partner, lineal descendant (including adopted children), father, mother, brother or sister of the transferor.

 

Exhibit A


In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company and its transfer agent are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Lock-Up Letter Agreement.

The obligations of the undersigned pursuant to this Lock-Up Letter Agreement are expressly conditioned upon the agreement of the Underwriters that, upon the termination, amendment or waiver (other than pursuant to this sentence) by the Underwriters of any of their rights under agreements substantially similar to this Lock-Up Letter Agreement (the “Other Lock-Up Letter Agreements”) that have been executed by any selling shareholder party to the Underwriting Agreement (the “Selling Shareholders), this Lock-Up Letter Agreement shall automatically be terminated or amended, or the rights hereunder automatically waived, as the case may be, to the same extent as such Other Lock-Up Letter Agreement (other than an Other Lock-Up Letter Agreement executed by an affiliate of the undersigned). The Representatives shall notify the undersigned promptly of any termination, amendment or waiver of any provision of any of the Other Lock-up Agreements.

It is understood that, if (1) the Company notifies the Underwriters that it does not intend to proceed with the Offering, (2) the Underwriting Agreement does not become effective, (3) the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated for any reason prior to payment for and delivery of the Shares, or (4) the Offering shall not have been completed by March 31, 2012, then this Lock-Up Letter Agreement shall immediately be terminated and the undersigned shall automatically be released from all of his, her or its obligations under this Lock-Up Letter Agreement.

The undersigned understands that the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters will proceed with the Offering in reliance on this Lock-Up Letter Agreement.

Whether or not the Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions. Any Offering will only be made pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriter or Underwriters.
