On August 17, 2017, Lakeland Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Roth Capital Partners, LLC and Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC, as underwriters (collectively, the “Underwriters”), to issue and sell 725,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), of the Company at a public offering price of $13.80 per share (the “Offering Price”) in a firm commitment underwritten public offering. The underwriting discount was $0.966 per share sold in the Offering. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters have the option, exercisable for a period of 45-days after execution of the Underwriting Agreement, to purchase up to an additional 108,750 shares of the Common Stock at the Offering Price, which the Underwriters have not exercised. The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering are estimated to be approximately $8.95 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for the purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. The foregoing description of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
