portion of the Advances not offset by actual expenses, regardless of whether the offering is terminated.

(a) The Company agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriters and each Person, if any, who controls the Underwriters within the meaning of Section 15
of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses whatsoever, as incurred
(including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and any and all reasonable expenses whatsoever, incurred in investigating,
preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, and any and all amounts paid in settlement
of any claim or litigation), joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise
(including in settlement of any litigation if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company), insofar as such losses,
liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) an untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in (A) the Registration Statement, including the information deemed to be
a part of the Registration Statement at the time of effectiveness and at any subsequent time pursuant to Rules 430A and 430B of the
Regulations, any Preliminary Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement to any of them
or (B) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any materials or information provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the
Company in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Securities (“Marketing Materials”), including any road
show or investor presentations made to investors by the Company (whether in person or electronically), or arise out of or are based upon
the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading and will reimburse such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with
investigations or defending against such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof); or (ii) in
whole or in part upon any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein; or (iii) in whole or
in part upon any failure of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder; provided, however, that the Company shall not
be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense (or action in respect thereof) arises
out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement
any Preliminary Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement to any of them, or any
Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Marketing Materials in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriters’ Information.
(b) Each Underwriter,
severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of the directors of the Company, each of the officers
of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement, and each other Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning
of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses whatsoever,
as incurred (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and any and all reasonable expenses whatsoever, incurred in
investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, and any and all amounts
paid in settlement of any claim or litigation), joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange
Act or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Underwriter),
insofar as such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, at the time of effectiveness and at
any subsequent time pursuant to Rules 430A and 430B of the Regulations, any Preliminary Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package,
the Prospectus, any amendment or supplement to any of them or any Marketing Materials, or arise out of or are based upon the omission
or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
and will reimburse such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or
defending against such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), in each case to the extent, but
only to the extent, that any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense (or action in respect thereof) arises out of or is based upon
any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Underwriters’ Information.
(c) Promptly after receipt
by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, such indemnified
party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify each party against
whom indemnification is to be sought in writing thereof (but the failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying
party from any liability which it may have under this Section 8 to the extent that it is not materially prejudiced as a
result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability that such indemnifying party may have otherwise than on account
of the indemnity agreement hereunder). In case any such claim or action is brought against any indemnified party, and it so notifies an
indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense of such action, and
to the extent it may elect 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 satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided however, that
counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the written consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified
party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any
such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party or parties unless: (i) the
employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by one of the indemnifying parties in connection with the defense of
such action; (ii) the indemnifying parties shall not have employed counsel to have charge of the defense of such action within a
reasonable time after notice of the claim or the commencement of the action; (iii) the indemnifying party does not diligently defend
the action after assumption of the defense; or (iv) such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict
may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, or any of them, in conducting the defense of any
such action or there may be legal defenses available to it or them which are different from or additional to those available to any of
the indemnifying parties (in which case the indemnifying parties shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf
of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which events such fees and expenses shall be borne by the indemnifying parties and shall
be paid as incurred. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party
in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one
separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) of the indemnified party or parties unless such separate representations are required
under applicable ethics rules that govern the representations of the indemnified party or parties by such legal counsel. In the case
of any separate firm for the Underwriter and such control persons and affiliates of any Underwriter, such firm shall be designated in
writing by the Underwriter. In the case of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Company, and such directors,
officers and control persons of the Company, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Company. No indemnifying party shall, without
the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, effect any settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of judgment with
respect to, any pending or threatened claim, investigation, action or proceeding in respect of which indemnity or contribution may be
or could have been sought by an indemnified party under this Section 8 or Section 9 hereof (whether or not
the indemnified party is an actual or potential party thereto), unless (x) such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes
an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, investigation, action or proceeding and
(ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or any failure to act, by or on behalf of the indemnified
party, and (y) the indemnifying party confirms in writing its indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to such settlement,
compromise or judgment.
9. Contribution. In
order to provide for contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in Section 8 is for any reason
held to be unavailable from any indemnifying party or is insufficient to hold harmless a party indemnified thereunder, the Company and
the Underwriter shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses of the nature contemplated by such
indemnification provision (including any investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement
of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claims asserted, but after deducting in the case of losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
expenses suffered by the Company, any contribution received by the Company from Persons, other than the Underwriter, who may also be liable
for contribution, including Persons who control the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act, officers of the Company who signed the Registration Statement and directors of the Company), as incurred, to which the Company
and one or more of the Underwriter may be subject, in such proportions as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by
the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other hand from the Offering and sale of the Securities or, if such allocation
is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportions as are appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to above
but also the relative fault of the Company and the Underwriter in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the
Company and the Underwriter shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (x) the total proceeds from the Offering (net of underwriting
discount and commission but before deducting expenses) received by the Company bears to (y) the underwriting discount and commissions
received by the Underwriter, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault of the
Company and the Underwriter 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 or the Underwriter
and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
The Company and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were
determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriter were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method
of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 9. The aggregate
amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 9 shall
be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending
against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any judicial, regulatory or other legal or governmental agency or body,
commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9: (i) no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess
of the underwriting discounts applicable to the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public and (ii) no Person guilty
of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 12(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any
Person who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 12(f) of the Act). For purposes of
this Section 9, each Person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20
of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each Person, if any, who controls the Company
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed
the Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each
case to clauses (i) and (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence. Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after
receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may
be made against another party or parties, notify each party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify
such party or parties shall not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any obligation it or they may have
under this Section 9 or otherwise. As used herein, a “Person” refers to an individual or entity.
10. Survival of Representations
and Agreements. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company and the Underwriters contained in this Agreement
or in certificates of officers of the Company submitted pursuant hereto, including, without limitation, the agreements contained in Sections
6, 14 and 15, the indemnity agreements contained in Section 8 and the contribution
agreements contained in Section 9, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation
made by or on behalf of the Underwriters or any controlling Person thereof or by or on behalf of the Company, any of its officers or directors
or any controlling Person thereof, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Securities to and by the Underwriters. The representations
and warranties contained in Section 2 and Section 5 and the covenants and agreements contained
in Sections 4, 6, 8, 9, 14 and 15 shall survive any termination
of this Agreement, including termination pursuant to Sections 11. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of termination
the Underwriters will receive only out-of-pocket accountable expenses actually incurred subject to the limit in Section 11below,
in compliance with FINRA Rules 5110.
11. Effective Date of Agreement;
Termination.
(a) This Agreement shall
become effective upon the execution of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 12 and
of Sections 1, 4, 6, 8, 9, 14 and 15 shall
remain in full force and effect at all times after the execution hereof to the extent they are in compliance with FINRA Rule 5110.
(b) The Representative
shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any time prior to the consummation of the Closing if: (i) any domestic or international
event or act or occurrence has materially disrupted, or in the reasonable opinion of the Representative will in the immediate future materially
disrupt, the market for the Company’s securities or securities in general; or (ii) trading on the New York Stock Exchange or
the NASDAQ Stock Market has been suspended or made subject to material limitations or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been
fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities have been required, on the NYSE Euronext or the NASDAQ Stock Market or by order of
the Commission, FINRA or any other governmental authority having jurisdiction; or (iii) a banking moratorium has been declared by
any state or federal authority or any material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services has occurred;
or (iv) (A) there has occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or acts of terrorism involving the United States or
there is a declaration of a national emergency or war by the United States or (B) there has been any other calamity or crisis or
any change in political, financial or economic conditions, if the effect of any such event in (A) or (B), in the reasonable judgment
of the Underwriter, is so material and adverse that such event makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale
and delivery of the Firm Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated by the Prospectus.
(c) Except as otherwise
stated in this section, the Agreement may not be terminated by the Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any time
prior to the consummation of the Closing prior to the completion of the Engagement Period, other than for “Cause.” “Cause,”
for the purpose of this Agreement, shall mean, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, willful misconduct, gross negligence
or a material breach of the Agreement by the Underwriters. In the event that the Company believes that the Underwriter has engaged conduct
constituting Cause, it must first notify the Underwriters in writing of the facts and circumstances supporting such an assertion(s) and
allow the Underwriters twenty five (25) days to cure such alleged conduct.
(d) Any notice of termination
pursuant to this Section 11 shall be in writing and delivered in accordance with Section 12.
(e) If this Agreement
shall be terminated pursuant to any of the provisions hereof (other than pursuant to Section 11(b) hereof), or if
the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriter set forth
herein is not satisfied or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or
comply with any provision hereof, the Company will, subject to demand by the Underwriters, reimburse the Underwriters for only those documented
out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of their counsel), actually incurred by the Underwriters in connection
herewith as allowed under FINRA Rule 5110(g)(4)(A) less any amounts previously paid by the Company); provided, however, that
all such expenses, including the costs and expenses set forth in Section 6(d) which were actually paid, shall not
exceed $250,000 in the aggregate, including any advances.

ANNEX I
Lock-Up Agreement
Newbridge Securities Corporation
1200 North Federal Highway, Suite 400
Boca Raton, FL 33432
Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned understands that Newbridge Securities
Corporation (the “Underwriter”) proposes to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”)
with NETCLASS TECHNOLOGY INC, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), providing for the initial public offering
in the United States (the “Initial Public Offering”) of a certain number of the Company’s Class A Ordinary
Shares, par value $0.00025 per share (the “Securities”). For purposes of this letter agreement, “Shares”
shall mean shares of the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares.
To induce the Underwriter to continue its efforts
in connection with the Public Offering, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter, the
undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending one hundred and eighty (180) days after the date of the
final prospectus (the “Prospectus”) relating to the Initial Public Offering (the “Lock-Up Period”),
(1) offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any
option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, make any short sale, or otherwise transfer or dispose of,
directly or indirectly, any Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for or represent the right to receive
Shares, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the undersigned (collectively, the “Lock-Up Securities”); (2) enter
into any swap or other agreement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the
Lock-Up Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) above or this clause (2) is to be settled by delivery
of Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise; (3) make any written demand for or exercise any right with respect to the
registration of any Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Shares; or (4) publicly disclose the
intention to do any of the foregoing, except for such number of Class A Ordinary Shares held by the undersigned and registered for
resale under the Registration Statement (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to
the conditions below, the undersigned may transfer Lock-Up Securities without the prior written consent of the Underwriter in connection
with (a) transactions relating to Lock-Up Securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Initial Public
Offering; (b) transfers of Lock-Up Securities as a bona fide gift, by will or intestacy or to a family member or
trust for the benefit of the undersigned and/or one or more family members (for purposes of this lock-up agreement, “family member”
means any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin); (c) transfers of Lock-Up Securities to
a charity or educational institution or other not-for-profit organization; (d) if the undersigned, directly or indirectly, controls
a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity, any transfers of Lock-Up Securities to any such corporation,
partnership, limited liability company or other business entity, or any shareholder, partner or member of, or owner of similar equity
interests in, the same, as the case may be; (e) a sale or surrender to the Company of any options or Shares of the Company underlying
options in order to pay the exercise price or taxes associated with the exercise of options or (f) transfers or distributions pursuant
to any bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, acquisition, consolidation or other similar transaction made to all
holders of the Company’s Shares involving a Change of Control of the Company, provided that in the event that such tender offer,
merger, acquisition, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, the Lock-Up Securities held by the undersigned shall remain
subject to the provisions of this lock-up agreement; provided that in the case of any transfer pursuant to the foregoing
clauses (b), (c) or (d), (i) any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (ii) each transferee shall sign
and deliver to the Underwriter a lock-up agreement substantially in the form of this lock-up agreement and (iii) no filing under
Section 16(a) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended shall be required or shall be voluntarily made (collectively,
“Permitted Transfers”). For purposes of this paragraph, the term “Change of Control” shall mean any transaction
or series of related transactions pursuant to which any “person” or “group” (as such terms are used in Sections
13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as such term is defined in Rules 13d-3
and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the total voting power of the Shares of the Company on
a fully diluted basis. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer
agent and registrar against the transfer of the undersigned’s Lock-Up Securities except in compliance with this lock-up agreement.
The undersigned agrees that, prior to engaging
in any transaction or taking any other action that is subject to the terms of this lock-up agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding
any transaction or other action in connection with a Permitted Transfer) during the period from the date hereof to and including the [●]
day following the expiration of the initial Lock-Up Period, the undersigned will give notice thereof to the Company and will not consummate
any such transaction or take any such action unless it has received written confirmation from the Company that the Lock-Up Period has
expired.
The undersigned agrees that (i) the foregoing
restrictions shall be equally applicable to any issuer-directed or “friends and family” Shares that the undersigned may purchase
in the Initial Public Offering, (ii) at least three (3) business days before the effective date of any release or waiver of
the foregoing restrictions in connection with a transfer of Lock-Up Securities, the Underwriter will notify the Company of the impending
release or waiver. Any release or waiver granted by the Underwriter hereunder to any such officer or director shall only be effective
two (2) business days after the publication date of such press release. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if (a) the
release or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer of Lock-Up Securities not for consideration or in connection with any other
Permitted Transfer and (b) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by a lock-up agreement substantially in the form of this
lock-up agreement.
No provision in this agreement shall be deemed
to restrict or prohibit the exercise, exchange or conversion by the undersigned of any securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible
into Shares, as applicable; provided that the undersigned does not transfer the Shares acquired on such exercise, exchange
or conversion during the Lock-Up Period, unless in connection with a Permitted Transfer or in a transfer otherwise permitted pursuant
to the terms of this lock-up agreement. In addition, no provision herein shall be deemed to restrict or prohibit the entry into or modification
of a so-called “10b5-1” plan at any time (other than the entry into or modification of such a plan in such a manner as to
cause the sale of any Lock-Up Securities within the Lock-Up Period).
The undersigned understands that the Company and
the Underwriter are relying upon this lock-up agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the Initial Public Offering. The undersigned
further understands that this lock-up agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal Underwriters,
successors and assigns.
The undersigned understands that, (1) if the Underwriting
Agreement does not become effective, or if the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall
terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Shares to be sold thereunder; (2) either the Underwriter, on
the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, advising the other in writing, they have determined not to proceed with the Initial Public
Offering (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement); (3) the withdrawal of the Registration Statement (as defined in the Underwriting
Agreement), or (4) the Initial Public Offering has not closed by the termination date of the Initial Public Offering or such other date
as may be agreed as the final date of the Initial Public Offering if the Company and the Underwriter extend the Initial Public Offering,
then this lock-up agreement shall be void and of no further force or effect.
Whether or not the Initial Public Offering actually
occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions. The Initial Public Offering will only be made pursuant to an Underwriting
Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Underwriter.
This lock-up agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof. Delivery
of a signed copy of this lock-up agreement by facsimile or e-mail/.pdf transmission shall be effective as the delivery of the original
hereof.
