Purchase and Sale of Units The Purchaser hereby subscribes for and purchases from the Company, and the Company hereby issues and sells to the Purchaser, 25,000 units (the “Initial Units”) at a purchase price of approximately $.003478 per Initial Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $86.95. Each Initial Unit consists of one share of Common Stock and one warrant (an “Initial Warrant”) to purchase one additional share of Common Stock for $6.00 in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement to be entered into by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, which shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Warrant Agreement”). The Initial Units, together with the underlying Common Stock and the Initial Warrants, are referred to herein as the “Securities.”
Sale of Units On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, you agree to sell the Units on a “best efforts” basis, as agent for the Fund. You are authorized to enlist other members of FINRA (“Soliciting Dealers”), acceptable to the Fund, to sell the Units. As compensation for these services, the Fund agrees that it will pay you a selling commission in an amount equal to 9% of the offering price of the Units sold pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, from which you may reallow a dealer commission of up to 7.5% of such offering price. In addition to such selling commissions, the Fund or the Manager will pay or reimburse to you or participating broker dealers an amount up to 1% of the Gross Proceeds as additional selling compensation in the form of underwriters’ expenses borne by the Fund, the Manager or their affiliates, as described in the following paragraph. You will pay wholesaling compensation to your personnel out of the selling commissions you will receive hereunder. Aggregate selling compensation paid in connection with the offering, will not exceed a total equal to 10% of the Gross Proceeds. It is understood that the Fund may pay or reimburse you and participating dealers a portion of their “underwriters’ expenses” incurred in connection with the offering, and the Fund, the Manager or their Affiliates may bear certain other expenses directly that may be deemed “underwriters’ expenses.” These underwriters’ expenses include amounts paid by the Fund, the Manager or its Affiliates to you and participating broker dealers relating to sales seminar costs and expenses; advertising and promotion expenses; travel, food and lodging costs; telephone expenses; and an allocable portion of any of your salary expenses and legal fees borne by the Manager or its Affiliates. All of such amounts paid to you or participating broker dealers, all underwriters’ expenses borne on behalf of you or any participating broker dealer by the Fund or any other party on its behalf, and all selling commissions are together deemed “underwriting compensation” paid in connection with the offering. The total of all underwriting compensation, including sales commissions, wholesaling salaries and commissions, retail and wholesaling expense reimbursements, seminar expenses and any other underwriters’ expenses or other forms of compensation paid to or for you or participating broker-dealers, will not exceed 10% of the Gross Proceeds. In addition to such selling compensation, the Fund may reimburse the Soliciting Dealers for their bona fide and accountable expenses for due diligence purposes; provided, however, that any such payment or reimbursement will be made only upon presentation of detailed, itemized invoices for such bona fide due diligence expenses. Bona fide due diligence expenses will include actual costs incurred by broker-dealers to review the business, financial statements, transactions, and investments of ATEL and its prior programs to determine the accuracy and completeness of information provided in the Prospectus, the suitability of the investment for their clients and the integrity and management expertise of ATEL and its personnel. Costs may include telephone, postage and similar communication costs incurred in communicating with ATEL personnel, and ATEL’s outside accountants and counsel in this pursuit; travel and lodging costs incurred in visiting the ATEL offices, reviewing ATEL’s books and records and interviewing key ATEL personnel; the cost of outside counsel, accountants and other due diligence investigation specialists engaged by the broker-dealer; and the internal costs of time and materials expended by broker-dealer personnel in this due diligence effort. ATEL will require full itemized documentation of any claimed due diligence expenditure and will determine whether the expenditure can be fairly allocated to bona fide due diligence investigation before permitting reimbursement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, it is understood and agreed that the Manager has reserved the right to accept or reject any subscriptions for Units as set forth in the Prospectus and no selling commission will be payable to you or any of the Soliciting Dealers with respect to the tender of any Subscription Agreement which is rejected by you or the Manager as aforesaid. Furthermore, no subscription will be deemed binding until at least five days following delivery of a Prospectus. The Fund further agrees that it will pay the foregoing selling commission with respect to the purchase price of each of the Units upon the Manager’s acceptance of the order for such Units; provided, however, that none of such commissions will be payable or paid until release to the Fund from the escrow account in which they are to be deposited of proceeds from subscriptions for a minimum of 120,000 Units. It is understood and agreed that you may, in your discretion, permit you, the Manager, a Soliciting Dealer or any Affiliate or employee of any of the foregoing or certain clients of registered investment advisors to purchase Units net of the 7.5% retail selling commissions at a per Unit price of $9.25, as more specifically described in the Prospectus under “Plan of Distribution—Investments by Certain Persons.” Any such sale of Units net of retail commissions to you, the Manager, a Soliciting Dealer or any Affiliate or employee of such person will only be made if and to the extent that any Soliciting Dealer which would otherwise be entitled to a selling commission on any such transaction agrees to such rebate.
Purchase and Sale of the Units At the Closing, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Seller shall sell, assign, transfer, deliver and convey to the Buyer, free and clear of any Liens, and the Buyer shall purchase, accept and acquire from the Seller, the Units.
Purchase and Sale of Shares (a) Upon the basis of the representations and warranties and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company agrees to issue and sell to the Underwriter, and the Underwriter agrees to purchase from the Company, at a purchase price of $[ ] per share (the “Per Share Price”), the number of Firm Shares to be sold by the Company as set forth in the first paragraph of this Agreement. In addition, upon the basis of the representations and warranties and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Selling Shareholders agree to sell to the Underwriter, and the Underwriter agrees to purchase from the Selling Shareholders, at the Per Share Price, the number of Common Shares set forth opposite the name of such Selling Shareholder in Schedule I hereto.

(b) The Company hereby grants to the Underwriter the right to purchase at its election in whole or in part up to 120,000 Additional Shares, at the Per Share Price, for the sole purpose of covering over-allotments in the sale of the Firm Shares. The option granted hereunder may be exercised at any time (but not more than once) within thirty (30) days after the date of this Agreement, upon notice by the Underwriter to the Company which sets forth the aggregate number of Additional Shares as to which the Underwriter is exercising the option, as well as the date, time and place on which such Additional Shares are to be delivered. Such time of delivery may be the day of, but may not be earlier than, the Closing Date (as defined below) and herein is called the “Additional Closing Date.” The Additional Closing Date shall be determined by the Underwriter, but if at any time other than the Closing Date, shall not be earlier than two nor later than ten full business days after delivery of such notice to exercise. In the event the Underwriter elects to purchase all or a portion of the Additional Shares, the Company agrees to furnish or cause to be furnished to the Underwriter the certificates, letters and opinions, and to satisfy all conditions, set forth in Section 6 hereof at the Additional Closing Date.
(c) In making this Agreement, the Underwriter is contracting, except as provided in Section 3(b) hereof, to purchase only the Firm Shares. The Underwriter shall not be under any obligation to purchase any Additional Shares prior to an exercise of the option with respect to such Shares granted pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof. The Company is advised by you that you intend (i) to make a public offering of the Firm Shares as soon after the effective date of the Registration Statement as in your reasonable judgment is advisable and (ii) initially to offer the Firm Shares upon the terms set forth in the Prospectus. You may from time to time increase or decrease the public offering price after the initial public offering to such extent as you may determine. In addition to the underwriting discount set forth in the Prospectus, the Company and the Selling Shareholders shall pay, in the respective amounts of the Firm Shares to be sold by them, to the Underwriter a financial advisory fee equal to 1.5% of the aggregate public offering price of all Firm Shares purchased (the “Financial Advisory Fee”). If you choose to exercise your right to purchase any or all of the Additional Shares, the Company shall pay to the Underwriter a financial advisory fee equal to 1.5% of the aggregate public offering price of all Additional Shares purchased.
