• Further Covenants OPCO and Issuer hereby covenant and agree that: (a) Except upon prior written notice to the Placement Agent, neither OPCO nor Issuer shall, at any time prior to the Final Closing, knowingly take any action which would cause any of the representations and warranties made by it in this Agreement not to be complete and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of each Closing with the same force and effect as if such representations and warranties had been made on and as of each such date (except to the extent any representation or warranty relates to an earlier date). (b) If, at any time prior to the Final Closing, any event shall occur that causes (i) an OPCO Material Adverse Effect or (ii) an Issuer Material Adverse Effect, either of which as a result it becomes necessary to amend or supplement the Memorandum so that the representations and warranties herein remain true and correct in all material respects, or in case it shall be necessary to amend or supplement the Memorandum to comply with Regulation D or any other applicable securities laws or regulations, either OPCO or Issuer, as applicable, will promptly notify the Placement Agent and shall, at its sole cost, prepare and furnish to the Placement Agent copies of appropriate amendments and/or supplements in such quantities as the Placement Agent may reasonably request for delivery by the Placement Agent to potential subscribers. Neither OPCO nor Issuer will at any time before the Final Closing prepare or use any amendment or supplement to the Memorandum of which the Placement Agent will not previously have been advised and furnished with a copy, or which is not in compliance in all material respects with the Act and other applicable securities laws. As soon as OPCO or Issuer is advised thereof, OPCO or Issuer, as applicable, will advise the Placement Agent and its counsel, and confirm the advice in writing, of any order preventing or suspending the use of the Memorandum, or the suspension of any exemption for such qualification or registration thereof for offering in any jurisdiction, or of the institution or threatened institution of any proceedings for any of such purposes, and OPCO and Issuer, as applicable, will use their reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such order and, if issued, to obtain as soon as reasonably possible the lifting thereof. (c) OPCO and Issuer shall comply with the Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, all applicable state securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder in the states in which OPCO’s Blue Sky counsel has advised the Placement Agent, OPCO and/or Issuer that the Units are qualified or registered for sale or exempt from such qualification or registration, so as to permit the continuance of the sales of the Units, and will file or cause to be filed with the SEC, and shall promptly thereafter forward or cause to be forwarded to the Placement Agent, any and all reports on Form D as are required. (d) Issuer shall use best efforts to qualify the Units for sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as may be mutually agreed to by OPCO, Issuer and the Placement Agent, and Issuer will make or cause to be made such applications and furnish information as may be required for such purposes, provided that Issuer will not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction or execute a general consent to service of process. Issuer will, from time to time, prepare and file such statements and reports as are or may be required to continue such qualifications in effect for so long a period as the Placement Agent may reasonably request with respect to the Offering. (e) The Issuer shall place a legend on the certificates representing the Shares, the Preferred Shares, the Conversion Shares, the Exchange Warrants and the Agent Warrants that the securities evidenced thereby have not been registered under the Act or applicable state securities laws, setting forth or referring to the applicable restrictions on transferability and sale of such securities under the Act and applicable state laws. (f) The Company shall apply the net proceeds from the sale of the Units for the purposes substantially as described under the “Use of Proceeds” section of the Memorandum. Except as set forth in the Memorandum, the Company shall not use any of the net proceeds of the Offering to repay indebtedness to officers (other than accrued salaries incurred in the ordinary course of business), directors or stockholders of the Company without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent. (g) During the Offering Period OPCO or Issuer, as applicable, shall afford each prospective purchaser of Units the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from an officer of OPCO or Issuer concerning the terms and conditions of the Offering and the opportunity to obtain such other additional information necessary to verify the accuracy of the Memorandum to the extent OPCO or Issuer possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable expense. (h) Except with the prior written consent of Aegis, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, OPCO and Issuer shall not, at any time prior to the earlier of the Final Closing or the Termination Date, except as contemplated by the Memorandum (i) engage in or commit to engage in any transaction outside the ordinary course of business as described in the Memorandum, (ii) issue, agree to issue or set aside for issuance any securities (debt or equity) or any rights to acquire any such securities; provided that the Company shall be permitted to issue stock options and/or restricted stock units to officers, directors and employees of the Company as described in the Memorandum; and it being acknowledged and agreed that after the Final Closing or Termination Date, the Issuer may issue, in its sole discretion, a number of stock options and/or restricted units in the aggregate in an amount of up to 15% of the fully diluted outstanding shares of the Issuer pursuant to the Issuer’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), (iii) incur, outside the ordinary course of business, any material indebtedness, (iv) dispose of any material assets, (v) make any acquisition or (vi) change its business or operations. (i) OPCO or the Issuer, as applicable, shall pay all reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and printing of all necessary offering documents and instruments related to the Offering and the issuance of the Shares, the Preferred Shares, the Conversion Shares, the Exchange Warrants and the Agent Warrants and will also pay OPCO’s and the Issuer’s own expenses for accounting fees, legal fees and other costs involved with the Offering (provided that OPCO shall not be responsible for the legal fees of Issuer for the period prior to the First Closing other than the $25,000 previously paid to the Placement Agent’s counsel). OPCO will provide at its own expense such quantities of the Memorandum and other documents and instruments relating to the Offering as the Placement Agent may reasonably request. All Blue Sky filings related to this Offering shall be prepared by OPCO’s counsel, on behalf of the Issuer, at OPCO’s expense, with copies of all filings to be promptly forwarded to the Placement Agent. Further, as promptly as practicable after the Final Closing, the Company shall prepare, at its own expense, velobound “closing binders” relating to the Offering and will distribute one such binder to each of the Placement Agent and its counsel. (j) Until the earlier of the Termination Date or the Final Closing, neither OPCO nor Issuer nor any person or entity acting on such persons’ behalf will negotiate with any other placement agent or underwriter with respect to a private offering of such entity’s debt or equity securities. Neither OPCO nor Issuer nor anyone acting on such persons’ behalf will, until the earlier of the Termination Date or the Final Closing, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent, offer for sale to, or solicit offers to subscribe for Units from, or otherwise approach or negotiate in respect thereof with, any other person.

• Other Covenants The Sub-Adviser agrees that it will: (a) comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission in performance of its duties as sub-investment adviser for the Series and, in addition, will conduct its activities under this Agreement in accordance with other applicable federal and state law; (b) review and analyze on a periodic basis the Series' portfolio holdings and transactions in order to determine their appropriateness in light of such Series' shareholder base; (c) provide, or cause to be provided, to the Board of Directors of the Fund such reports, statistical data and economic information as may be reasonably requested in connection with the Sub-Adviser's services hereunder; (d) use the same skill and care in providing such services as it uses in providing services to fiduciary accounts for which it has investment responsibilities; (e) place orders pursuant to its investment determinations for the Series either directly with the issuer or with any broker or dealer. In executing portfolio transactions and selecting brokers or dealers, the Sub- Adviser will use its best efforts to seek on behalf of the Series the best overall terms available. In assessing the best overall terms available for any transaction, the Sub-Adviser shall consider all factors that it deems relevant, including the breadth of the market in the security, the price of the security, the financial condition and execution capability of the broker or dealer, and the reasonableness of the commission, if any, both for the specific transaction and on a continuing basis. In evaluating the best overall terms available, and in selecting the broker-dealer to execute a particular transaction, the Sub-Adviser may also consider the brokerage and research services (as those terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) provided to the Series and other accounts over which the Sub-Adviser or an affiliate of the Sub-Adviser exercises investment discretion. The Sub-Adviser is authorized, subject to the prior approval of the Adviser and the Fund's Board of Directors, to pay to a broker or dealer who provides such brokerage and research services a commission for executing a portfolio transaction for any of the Series which is in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if, but only if, the Sub-Adviser determines in good faith that such commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer as viewed in terms of that particular transaction or in terms of the overall responsibilities of the Sub-Adviser to the Series. In addition, the Sub-Adviser is authorized to take into account the sale of the Fund's shares in allocating purchase and sale orders for portfolio securities to brokers or dealers (including brokers and dealers that are affiliated with the Adviser, Sub-Adviser or the Fund's principal underwriter), provided that the Sub-Adviser believes that the quality of the execution and the commission are comparable to what they would be with other qualified firms. In no instance, however, will portfolio securities be purchased from or sold to the Adviser, Sub-Adviser, the Fund's principal underwriter or any affiliated person of any of the Fund, the Adviser, Sub-Adviser, or the principal underwriter, acting as principal in the transaction, except to the extent permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission and other applicable federal and state laws and regulations; (f) maintain historical tax lots for each portfolio security held by the Series; (g) transmit trades to the Fund's custodian for proper settlement; and (h) prepare a quarterly broker security transaction summary and monthly security transaction listing for each Series.

Section 2.04. MOUD and the State shall carry out the Project in accordance with plans, design standards, specifications, work schedules and construction methods acceptable to ADB.
