Underwriting Compensation Determination and Cap The maximum amounts set forth in clauses (a) and (c) above are considered underwriting compensation pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110. A portion of the amounts payable by Masterworks pursuant to clause (b) above along with any amounts paid or payable by Masterworks or Client or any of their respective affiliates to ((or benefits paid in respect of) any related person of the Co-Managers is generally deemed to be underwriting compensation. Any such amounts shall be allocated to the Offering and other related offerings in a manner deemed to be reasonable and appropriate by each of the Co-Managers, consistent with FINRA rules and regulations to determine underwriting compensation relating to the Offering. To the extent such allocation would be determined to result in maximum underwriting compensation being equal to or in excess of 10% of the aggregate gross offering proceeds, the Parties will adjust the provisions of this Agreement or the Client will adjust the terms of employment of persons affiliated with either of the Co-Managers in such manner as is reasonable and necessary to ensure that aggregate underwriting compensation does not equal or exceed 10% of the aggregate gross offering proceeds. The total amount of all items of compensation from any source payable to underwriters, broker-dealers, or affiliates thereof will not exceed ten percent (10%) of the gross proceeds of the offering.
Compensation for Services Provided As compensation for providing portfolio supervisory services in its capacity as Portfolio Supervisor, evaluation services in its capacity as Evaluator, and for providing bookkeeping and other administrative services to the Trust of a character described in Section 26(a)(2)(C) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, and to the extent that such services are in addition to, and do not duplicate, the services to be provided hereunder by the Trustee, First Trust Advisors L.P. shall receive, in arrears, against a statement or statements therefor submitted to the Trustee monthly or annually an aggregate annual fee in the per Unit amount set forth in Part II of the Trust Agreement for the Trust, calculated based on the largest number of Units outstanding during the calendar year, except during the initial offering period as determined in Section 4.01 of this Indenture, in which case the fee is calculated based on the largest number of Units outstanding during the period for which the compensation is paid (such annual fee to be pro rated for any calendar year in which First Trust Advisors L.P. provides services described herein during less than the whole of such year). Such fee may exceed the actual cost of providing such services for the Trust, but at no time will the total amount received for such services rendered to unit investment trusts of which the Depositor is the sponsor in any calendar year exceed the aggregate cost to First Trust Advisors L.P. of supplying such services in such year. Such compensation may, from time to time, be adjusted provided that the total adjustment upward does not, at the time of such adjustment, exceed the percentage of the total increase after the date hereof in consumer prices for services as measured by the United States Department of Labor Consumer Price Index entitled "All Services Less Rent of Shelter" or similar index, if such index should no longer be published. The consent or concurrence of any Unit holder hereunder shall not be required for any such adjustment or increase. Such compensation shall be paid by the Trustee, upon receipt of an invoice therefor from First Trust Advisors L.P., which shall constitute the representation by First Trust Advisors L.P. that the bookkeeping and administrative services for which compensation is claimed are properly compensable hereunder and that the aggregate cost incurred by First Trust Advisors L.P. of providing portfolio supervisory, evaluation and bookkeeping and administrative services hereunder was not less than the compensation claimed, upon which representation the Trustee may conclusively rely. Such compensation shall be charged against the Income and/or Capital Accounts in accordance with Section 3.05. If the cash balance in the Income and Capital Accounts shall be insufficient to provide for amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.03, the Trustee shall have the power to sell (i) Securities from the current list of Securities designated to be sold pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof, or (ii) if no such Securities have been so designated, such Securities as the Trustee may see fit to sell in its own discretion, and to apply the proceeds of any such sale in payment of the amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.03. Any moneys payable to First Trust Advisors L.P. pursuant to this Section 4.03 shall be secured by a lien on the Trust prior to the interest of Unit holders, but no such lien shall be prior to any lien in favor of the Trustee under the provisions of Section 6.04 herein.

The parties expressly agree that when Executive is performing consulting services for MediciNova, Executive is acting as an independent contractor.
