3. Agreements and Representations of Managing Broker-Dealer

3.1 The Company hereby appoints the Managing Broker-Dealer as its agent and principal distributor for the purpose of selling the Securities for cash, on a “minimum/maximum, best efforts” basis, either alone or through one or more Dealers. The Managing Broker-Dealer may also sell Securities for cash directly to its own clients and customers at the public offering price and subject to the terms and conditions stated in the Form 1-A. The Managing Broker-Dealer hereby accepts such agency and distributorship and agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Securities on said terms and conditions. Under no circumstances will the Managing Broker-Dealer be obligated to underwrite or purchase any of the Securities for its own account or otherwise provide any financing. The Managing Broker-Dealer represents to the Company that it is a member of FINRA, that it and its employees and representatives have all required licenses and registrations to act under this Agreement, and that each shall remain a member or duly licensed, as the case may be, during the Offering.

3.2 It is understood that no sale of the Securities shall be regarded as effective unless and until accepted by the Company and that the Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to reject any subscription for Securities (a “Subscription Agreement”) in whole or in part. The Securities will be offered during a period commencing on the date that the Offering is qualified by the SEC, and continuing until the earliest of: (i) the date specified in the Form 1-A as the date of the termination of the Offering (the “Outside Date”), or (ii) a determination by the Company’s board of directors to terminate the Offering (the “Offering Termination Date”). If subscriptions for at least $500,000.00 in Securities (the “Minimum Offering Amount”) have not been received and accepted by the Company by the date specified in the Form 1-A for termination of the Offering if the Minimum Offering Amount is not reached (the “Minimum Termination Date”), none of the Securities will be sold and all funds tendered for the purchase of the Securities will be refunded in full to cash subscribers without deductions or charges.

3.3 The Company and the Managing Broker Dealer, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) will enter into an Escrow Agreement substantially in the form included as an exhibit to the Form 1-A (the “Escrow Agreement”), pursuant to which an escrow account will be established, at the Company’s expense, for the benefit of the investors (the “Escrow Account”). Prior to the Closing Date (defined below), (i) the Managing Broker Dealer will provide specific wire instructions for the Escrow Account to the investors, and each investor will promptly transfer an amount equal to no less than the Minimum Investment Amount as specified in the Form 1-A to the Escrow Account in compliance with Rule 15c2-4 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and (ii) the Escrow Agent will notify the Company and the Managing Broker Dealer in writing whether the Escrow Account is fully funded in the amount equal to at least the Minimum Offering Amount (the “Requisite Funds”). If the Escrow Agent shall have received all of the Requisite Funds by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Minimum Termination Date, or at such other time on such other date as may be agreed upon by the Company and the Managing Broker Dealer (such date is hereinafter referred to as the “Initial Closing Date”), the Escrow Agent will release the Requisite Funds less applicable escrow expenses from the Escrow Account for collection by the Company and the Managing Broker Dealer as provided in the Escrow Agreement and the Company shall deliver the Securities to the investors, which delivery may be made through the facilities of the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), if available. The initial closing (the “Initial Closing”) shall take place at the office of the Company or at such other place as may be mutually agreed to by the Company and the Managing Broker Dealer. All actions taken at the Closing shall be deemed to have occurred simultaneously. If the Requisite Funds have not been received immediately prior to the Initial Closing Date, the offering will not proceed and the Escrow Agent will promptly return all funds deposited by investors to such investors without interest. If at the time of the Initial Closing the Maximum Offering Amount has not been fully funded, then additional closings (the Initial Closing and each additional Closing being a “Closing” and, collectively, the “Closings”) may occur in accordance with the Escrow Agreement until the earlier of the date that the Maximum Offering Amount has been fully funded or the Outside Date. As specified above, the Company and the Managing Broker-Dealer have agreed to comply with the provisions of SEC Rule 15c2-4 as to all funds provided by Investors for the purchase of Securities.

3.9 The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated and compliance with the terms of this Agreement by the Managing Broker-Dealer will not conflict with or constitute a default under any operating agreement or other similar agreement to the Managing Broker-Dealer’s knowledge, under any rule, regulation, writ, injunction or decree of any government, governmental instrumentality or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Managing Broker-Dealer, except to the extent that the enforceability of the indemnity provisions contained in Section 6 of this Agreement may be limited under applicable securities laws.

3.10 The Managing Broker-Dealer has full legal right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to perform the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent that the enforceability of the indemnity provisions contained in Section 6 of this Agreement may be limited under applicable securities laws.

PARTICIPATING DEALER AGREEMENT

for Shares in

Tuscan Gardens Senior Living Communities, Inc.

, 20

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned, Xxxxxx Securities Clearing, LLC, a California limited liability company (the “Managing Broker-Dealer”), has entered into that certain Amended and Restated Managing Broker-Dealer Agreement, dated ______________, 2019 (the “MBD Agreement”), by and between itself and Tuscan Gardens Senior Living Communities, Inc., a __________ corporation (the “Company”). The MBD Agreement provides the terms for the sale (the “Offering”) of up to $50,000,000 of shares of Series A Preferred stock (the “Shares”) in the Company, pursuant to which the Managing Broker-Dealer has agreed to use its best efforts to form and manage, as the Managing Broker-Dealer, a group of securities dealers (the “Dealers”) for the purpose of soliciting offers for the purchase of the Shares. The MBD Agreement is attached as Exhibit A. The Assignment is attached as Exhibit B. The Company has prepared and filed an Offering Statement on Form 1-A, File No.: 024-10945 (together with all amendments thereto, the “Offering Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The date the Offering Statement is qualified by SEC shall be referred to herein as the “Qualification Date.” The Shares will be offered during a period commencing on the Qualification Date, and continuing until the earliest of: (i) the sale of $50,000,000 of Shares, (ii) ____________________, or (iii) a determination by the Company’s board of directors to terminate the Offering (the “Offering Termination Date”); provided, however, that the Company in its sole discretion may terminate the Offering at any time. Terms used but not otherwise defined in this Participating Dealer Agreement (this “Agreement”) have the same meanings as set forth in the MBD Agreement. The Shares will be offered at a price of $1,000.00 per Share.

You are invited to become a Dealer and by your confirmation hereof you agree to act in such capacity and to use your best efforts, in accordance with the following terms and conditions, to find qualified investors (the “Investors”) for the Shares. By your acceptance of this Agreement, you will become one of the Dealers and will be entitled to and subject to the indemnification and contribution provisions contained in the MBD Agreement, including the provisions of the MBD Agreement wherein the Dealers severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Managing Broker-Dealer for certain actions.

1. Dealer Representations.

1.1 You hereby confirm that you (i) are a member in good standing of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”), (ii) are qualified and duly registered to act as a broker-dealer within all states in which you will sell the Shares, (iii) are a broker-dealer duly registered with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and (iv) will maintain all such registrations and qualifications in good standing for the duration of your involvement in the Offering. You agree to immediately notify the Managing Broker-Dealer if you cease to be a member of FINRA in good standing.

1.2 You hereby agree to solicit, as an independent contractor, and not as the Managing Broker-Dealer’s agent, or as an agent of the Company or its affiliates, persons acceptable to the Company to purchase the Shares pursuant to the Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) in the form attached to the Offering Statement and in accordance with the terms of the Offering Statement and to diligently make inquiries as required by this Agreement, the Offering Statement or applicable law with respect to prospective Investors in order to ascertain whether a purchase of the Shares is suitable for the Investor. In accordance with the instructions set forth in the Subscription Agreement, all the Subscription Agreements shall be transmitted to the Managing Broker-Dealer. If you receive any funds from a subscriber with respect to any Subscription Agreement, you shall immediately transmit such funds to the Escrow Account. To the extent received by the Managing Broker-Dealer, the Managing Broker-Dealer will be responsible for the transmittal of such funds for the purchase of Shares to the Escrow Account. The Company and the Managing Broker-Dealer have agreed to comply with the provisions of SEC Rule 15c2-4 as to all funds provided by Investors for the purchase of Shares. No Subscription Agreement shall be effective unless and until accepted by the Company, it being understood that the Company may accept or reject any Investor in its sole discretion and that the Company may terminate the Offering at any time for any reason.

1.3 You understand that the offering of Shares is made on an “minimum/maximum, best-efforts” basis, as described in the Offering Circular. You further understand and agree that your compensation under this Agreement for the sale of Shares is conditioned upon the sale of at least $1,500,000 in Shares before the Minimum Offering Termination Date, and the Company’s acceptance of sales by you, and that the failure to sell at least $1,500,000 in Shares or the failure to accept a purchase for Shares shall relieve the Managing Broker-Dealer or any other party of any obligation to pay you for any services rendered by you in connection with the sale of Shares under this Agreement or otherwise.

1.4 You agree that before participating in the Offering, you will have reasonable grounds to believe, based on information made available to you by the Managing Broker-Dealer and/or the Company through the Offering Circular, that all material facts are adequately and accurately disclosed in the Offering Circular and provide a basis for evaluating the Company and the Shares.

1.5 You agree not to execute any transaction in which an Investor invests in the Shares in a discretionary account without prior written approval of the transaction by the Investor and the Managing Broker-Dealer.

1.6 You agree to comply in all respects with the purchase procedures and plan of distribution set forth in the Offering Circular. Further, you agree that although you may receive due diligence regarding the Offering from the Company in electronic form, you will not distribute to any prospective Investor or any other person any such due diligence material.

1.7 All subscriptions solicited by you will be strictly subject to confirmation by the Managing Broker-Dealer and acceptance thereof by the Company. The Managing Broker-Dealer and the Company reserve the right in their absolute discretion to reject any such subscription and to accept or reject subscriptions in the order of their receipt by the Company, as appropriate or otherwise. Neither you nor any other person is authorized to, and neither you nor any of your employees, agents or representatives shall give any information or make any representation other than those contained in the Offering Circular or in any supplemental sales literature furnished by the Managing Broker-Dealer or the Company for use in making solicitations in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares.

1.8 Upon authorization by the Managing Broker-Dealer, you may offer the Shares at the Offering price set forth in the Offering Circular, subject to the terms and conditions thereof.

1.9 The Company or the Managing Broker-Dealer will provide you with such number of copies of the Offering Circular as you may reasonably request. You will be solely responsible for correctly placing orders of such materials, and will reimburse the Managing Broker-Dealer for any costs incurred in connection with unreasonable or mistaken orders. The Managing Broker-Dealer also understands that the Company may provide you with certain supplemental sales material to be used by you in connection with the solicitation of purchases of the Shares. If you elect to use such supplemental sales material, you agree that such material shall not be used in connection with the solicitation or purchase of the Shares unless accompanied or preceded by the Offering Circular, as then currently in effect, and as it may be amended or supplemented in the future.

1.10 The Managing Broker-Dealer shall have full authority to take such action as it may deem advisable with respect to all matters pertaining to the Offering. The Managing Broker-Dealer shall be under no liability to you except for lack of good faith and for obligations expressly assumed by it in this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section is intended to operate as, and the provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver by you, of compliance with any provision of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, other applicable federal law, applicable state law or of the rules and regulations thereunder.

1.11 For the sale of Shares, you will instruct all Investors to make their checks payable to “Xxxxxx Securities Clearing as Agent for Investors in Tuscan Gardens Senior Living Communities, Inc.”, or to wire funds to the Escrow Account. If you receive a check that does not conform with the foregoing instructions, you shall return such check directly to such subscriber not later than the end of the next business day following its receipt.

1.12 You will limit the offering of the Shares to persons whom you have reasonable grounds to believe, and in fact believe, meet the financial suitability and other Investor requirements set forth in the Offering Statement.

1.13 After the Offering Statement has been filed with the SEC but prior to the Qualification Date, you are required to provide each prospective Investor with a copy of the Preliminary Offering Circular and any exhibits and appendices thereto (which are contained in the Offering Statement). After the Qualification Date, you are required to provide each prospective Investor with a copy of the final Offering Circular and any exhibits and appendices thereto. If a prospective Investor receives the Preliminary Offering Circular, then you will be required to deliver to the Investor the final Offering Circular at least 48 hours before such Investor will be permitted to acquire Shares. If an Investor purchases Shares within 90 calendar days of the Qualification Date, you will deliver to the Investor, no later than two business days following the completion of such sale, a copy of the final Offering Circular and all exhibits and appendices thereto either by (i) electronic delivery of the final Offering Circular or the uniform resource locator (the “URL”) to where the final Offering Circular may be accessed on the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (“XXXXX”), or (ii) mailing the final Offering Circular and all exhibits and appendices thereto to the Investor at the address indicated in the Subscription Agreement.

1.14 During the course of the Offering, you will advise each prospective Investor at the time of the initial offering to him or her that the Company and/or its agents and consultants will, during the course of the Offering and prior to any sale, accord said Investor and his or her purchaser representative, if any, the opportunity to ask questions of and to receive answers from the Company and/or its agents and consultants concerning the terms and conditions of the Offering and to obtain any additional information, which information is possessed by the Company or may be obtained by it without unreasonable effort or expense and which is necessary to verify the accuracy of the information contained in the Offering Statement.

1.15 You will immediately bring to the attention of the Company and the Managing Broker-Dealer any circumstance or fact which causes you to believe the Offering Statement, or any other literature distributed pursuant to the Offering, or any information supplied to prospective Investors in their purchase materials, may be inaccurate or misleading.

1.16 You agree that in recommending to an Investor the purchase or sale of the Shares, you shall have reasonable grounds to believe, on the basis of information obtained from the prospective Investor concerning his or her investment objectives, other investments, financial situation and needs, and any other information known by you, that:

1.16.1 The prospective Investor is an accredited investor or is otherwise not investing more than such Investor’s maximum investment as set forth in the Offering Statement and the acquisition of Shares is otherwise a suitable investment for such Investor as may be required by all applicable laws, rules and regulations;

1.16.2 The prospective Investor is or will be in a financial position appropriate to enable him or her to realize to a significant extent the benefits described in the Offering Statement;

1.16.3 The prospective Investor has a fair market net worth sufficient to sustain the risks inherent in an investment in the Shares, including, but not limited to, the total loss of the investment, lack of liquidity and other risks described in the Offering Statement; and

1.16.4 An investment in the Shares is otherwise suitable for the prospective Investor.

1.17 You agree to keep records in compliance with the requirements imposed by (i) federal and state securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder and (ii) the applicable rules of FINRA. You agree to retain in your records and make available to the Managing Broker-Dealer and to the Company, for a period of at least 6 years following the Offering Termination Date, information establishing that (i) each person who purchases the Shares pursuant to a Subscription Agreement solicited by you is within the permitted class of Investors under the requirements of the jurisdiction in which such Investor is a resident, (ii) each person met the suitability requirements set forth in the Offering Statement and the Subscription Agreement and (iii) each person is suitable for such investment and the basis on which such suitability determination was made. You also agree to make your records regarding suitability available to representatives of the SEC and FINRA and applicable state securities administrators upon the Managing Broker-Dealer’s request.

1.18 You agree that upon request by the Managing Broker-Dealer, you will furnish a complete list of all persons who have been offered the Shares (including the corresponding number of the Offering Statement delivered to such persons) and such persons’ place of residence.

1.19 You agree that before executing a purchase transaction in the Shares, you will inform the prospective Investor and his or her purchaser representative, if any, of all pertinent facts relating to the liquidity and marketability of the Shares, as appropriate, during the term of the investment.

1.20 You hereby undertake and agree to comply with all obligations applicable to you as set forth in FINRA rules, including, but not limited to, any new suitability and filing requirements.

1.21 You agree not to rely upon the efforts of the Managing Broker-Dealer in (i) performing due diligence related to the Company (including its members, managers, officers, directors, employees, and Affiliates), the Shares, or the suitability thereof for any Investors and (ii) determining whether the Company has adequately and accurately disclosed all material facts upon which to provide a basis for evaluating the Company to the extent required by federal law, state law and/or FINRA. You further agree that you are solely responsible for performing adequate due diligence, and you agree to perform adequate due diligence as required by federal law, state law, and/or FINRA.

1.22 You will refrain from making any representations to any prospective Investor other than those contained in the Offering Statement, and will not allow any other written materials to be used to describe the potential investment to prospective Investors other than the Offering Statement or factual summaries and sales brochures of the Offering prepared by the Company and distributed by the Managing Broker-Dealer.

1.23 You will refrain from distributing any material to prospective Investors that is marked “Financial Advisor Use Only” or “Broker-Dealer Use Only,” or any other due diligence material related to the Offering received by you.

1.24 Neither you nor any of your managing members, directors, or executive officers, or any of your officers participating in the offering is subject to the disqualification provisions of Rule 262 of the Rules and Regulations. None of your registered representatives or any other person being compensated by or through you for the solicitation of investors, is subject to the disqualification provisions of Rule 262 of the Rules and Regulations.

1.25 You acknowledge that this Offering is being made in reliance on Regulation A promulgated under the Securities Act and that the Company is relying on a certification from you that a potential Investor meets with the suitability requirements set forth in the Offering Statement.

1.26 You will provide the Managing Broker-Dealer with such information relating to the offer and sale of the Shares by you as the Managing Broker-Dealer may from time to time reasonably request.

2. Compensation. Subject to certain conditions, and in consideration of your services hereunder, the Managing Broker-Dealer will pay you sales commissions and marketing allowances as follows:

2.1 You will receive a selling commission in an amount up to 7.5% of the purchase price of the Shares sold by you until gross proceeds of the Offering reach $20,000,000, and at such time the selling commission will be reduced to an amount up to 7.25% of the purchase price of Shares sold by you. The foregoing notwithstanding, this amount will be reduced to the extent the Managing Broker-Dealer negotiates a lower commission rate with you, in which event the commission rate will be the lower agreed upon rate (the above being referred to as the “Commissions”).

2.2 You may, at the sole discretion of the Issuer, receive a non-accountable marketing and due diligence allowance (the “Allowances”) of up to 0.75% of the purchase price of the Shares sold by you until gross proceeds of the Offering reach $20,000,000, and up to 0.50% of the purchase price of the Shares sold by you once gross proceeds of the Offering exceed $20,000,000.

(c) No Commissions or Allowances will be payable to you with respect to any sale of the Shares by you unless and until such time as the Company has received the total proceeds of any such sale from the Escrow Account and/or the Folio Investment Accounts and the Managing Broker-Dealer has received the aggregate amount of sales commission to which it is entitled.

2.4 All other expenses incurred by you in the performance of your obligations hereunder, including, but not limited to, expenses related to the Offering and any attorneys’ fees, shall be at your sole cost and expense, and the foregoing shall apply notwithstanding the fact that the Offering is not consummated for any reason.

2.5 Once Commissions or Allowances become payable, they will be paid on the first and fifteenth of each month.

2.6 In the event that a purchase is revoked or rescinded, the Dealer will be obligated to return to the Managing Broker-Dealer any Commissions or Allowances previously paid to the Dealer in connection with such purchase.

4. Offer and Sale Activities. It is understood that under no circumstances will you engage in any activities hereunder in any state other than those for which permission has been granted by the Managing Broker-Dealer to you, as evidenced by written acknowledgement by the Managing Broker-Dealer that such state has been cleared for offer and sale activity. It is further understood that you shall notify the Company of Subscription Agreements you receive within 2 business days of receipt so that the Company may make any required federal or state law filings.

The Managing Broker-Dealer has submitted to FINRA (or will submit no later than one business day after filing with or submitting to the SEC or any state securities commission or other regulatory authority) a copy of the documents to be filed pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(b)(5) and the information specified in FINRA Rule 5110(b)(6); provided, however, any documents that are filed with the SEC through the SEC’s XXXXX System that are referenced in FINRA’s electronic filing system shall be treated as filed with FINRA (the “FINRA Filing”). No sales of Shares shall commence unless such documents and information have been filed with and reviewed by FINRA and FINRA has provided an opinion that it has no objections to the proposed underwriting and other terms and arrangements.

10.4 Confirmation. The Managing Broker-Dealer hereby acknowledges that it has assumed the duty to confirm on behalf of the Dealers all orders for purchases of Shares accepted by the Company. Such confirmations will comply with the rules of the SEC and FINRA and will comply with the applicable laws of such other jurisdictions to the extent that the Managing Broker-Dealer is advised of such laws in writing by the Dealer.

11. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, subject to and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to conflict of law provisions. The Managing Broker-Dealer and the Dealer agree that any dispute concerning this Agreement shall be resolved exclusively through binding arbitration before FINRA pursuant to its arbitration rules. Arbitration will be venued in Los Angeles, California (the “Agreed Forum”). Each of the Managing Broker-Dealer and the Dealer agree that the Agreed Forum is not an “inconvenient forum” for proceedings hereunder, and each hereby agree to the personal jurisdiction of the Agreed Forum and that service of process by mail to the address for such party as set forth in this Agreement (or such other address as a party hereto shall notify the other in writing) constitute full and valid service for such proceedings.

12. Severability. If any portion of this Agreement shall be held invalid or inoperative, then so far as is reasonable and possible (i) the remainder of this Agreement shall be considered valid and operative and (ii) effect shall be given to the intent manifested by the portion held invalid or inoperative.

13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in 2 or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and together which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

14. Modification or Amendment. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by written agreement executed by the parties hereto.

15. Notices. All communications hereunder, except as herein otherwise specifically provided, shall be in writing and, (i) if sent to the Managing Broker-Dealer, shall be mailed or delivered to Boustead Securities, LLC, 0 Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, (ii) if sent to the Company, shall be mailed or delivered to __________________________, or (iii) if sent to you, shall be mailed or delivered to you at your address set forth below. The notice shall be deemed to be received on the date of its actual receipt by the party entitled thereto.

16. Parties. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto, the persons referred to in Section 5 of the MBD Agreement, their respective successors, legal representatives, heirs and assigns, and no other person shall have or be construed to have any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under, in respect of, or by virtue of, this Agreement or any provision herein contained.

17. Delay. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of any party to this Agreement to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any subsequent occurrence.

18. Recovery of Costs. If any legal action or other proceeding is brought for the enforcement of this Agreement, or because of an alleged dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Agreement, the successful or prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs incurred in that action or proceeding (and any additional proceeding for the enforcement of a judgment) in addition to any other relief to which it or they may be entitled.

19. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, along with the applicable provisions of the MBD Agreement, constitute the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersede any prior understandings or written or oral agreements between them respecting the subject matter hereof.

20. Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Programs. Each Dealer’s acceptance of this Agreement constitutes a representation to the Managing Broker-Dealer that the Dealer has established and implemented an anti-money laundering (“AML”) compliance program (“AML Program”), in accordance with FINRA Rule 3310 and Section 352 of the Money Laundering Abatement Act, the Bank Secrecy Act, as amended, and Section 326 of the Patriot Act of 2001, which are reasonably expected to detect and cause reporting of suspicious transactions in connection with the sale of Shares. In addition, the Dealer represents that it has established and implemented a program (“OFAC Program”) for compliance with OFAC and will continue to maintain its OFAC Program during the term of this Agreement. Upon request by the Managing Broker-Dealer at any time, the Dealer hereby agrees to (i) furnish a copy of its AML Program and OFAC Program to the Managing Broker-Dealer for review and (ii) furnish a copy of the findings and any remedial actions taken in connection with the Dealer’s most recent independent testing of its AML Program and/or its OFAC Program.

The parties acknowledge that for the purposes of the FINRA rules the Investors who purchase Shares through the Dealer are “Customers” of the Dealer and not the Managing Broker-Dealer. Nonetheless, to the extent that the Managing Broker-Dealer deems it prudent, the Dealer shall cooperate with the Managing Broker-Dealer’s auditing and monitoring of the Dealer’s AML Program and its OFAC Program by providing, upon request, information, records, data and exception reports, related to the Company’s investors introduced to, and serviced by, the Dealer (the “Customers”). Such documentation could include, among other things: (i) copies of Dealer’s AML Program and its OFAC Program; (ii) documents maintained pursuant to the Dealer’s AML Program and its OFAC Program related to the Customers; (iii) any suspicious activity reports filed related to the Customers; (iv) audits and any exception reports related to the Dealer’s AML activities; and (v) any other files maintained related to the Customers. In the event that such documents reflect, in the opinion of the Managing Broker-Dealer, a potential violation of the Managing Broker-Dealer’s obligations in respect of its AML or OFAC requirements, the Dealer will permit the Managing Broker-Dealer to further inspect relevant books and records related to the Customers (with respect to the Offering) and/or the Dealer’s compliance with AML or OFAC requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Dealer shall not be required to provide to the Managing Broker-Dealer any documentation that, in the Dealer’s reasonable judgment, would cause the Dealer to lose the benefit of attorney-client privilege or other privilege which it may be entitled to assert relating to the discoverability of documents in any civil or criminal proceedings. The Dealer hereby represents that it is currently in compliance with all AML rules and all OFAC requirements, specifically including, but not limited to, the Customer Identification Program requirements under Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act. The Dealer hereby agrees, upon request by the Managing Broker-Dealer to (i) provide an annual certification to the Managing Broker-Dealer that, as of the date of such certification (A) its AML Program and its OFAC Program are consistent with the AML Rules and OFAC requirements, (B) it has continued to implement its AML Program and its OFAC Program and (C) it is currently in compliance with all AML Rules and OFAC requirements, specifically including, but not limited to, the Customer Identification Program requirements under Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act and (ii) perform and carry out, on behalf of both the Managing Broker-Dealer and the Company, the Customer Identification Program requirements in accordance with Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act and applicable SEC and Treasury Department Rules thereunder.

21. Managing Broker-Dealer Representations. The Managing Broker-Dealer hereby represents and warrants as of the Effective Date to the Dealer that neither the Managing Broker-Dealer nor any of its managing members, directors, or executive officers, or any of its officers participating in the offering is subject to the disqualification provisions of Rule 262 of the Rules and Regulations. None of the Managing Broker-Dealer’s registered representatives or any other person being compensated by or through the Managing Broker-Dealer for the solicitation of investors, is subject to the disqualification provisions of Rule 262 of the Rules and Regulations.

22. Electronic Delivery of Information; Electronic Processing of Subscriptions. Pursuant to the MBD Agreement, the Company has agreed to confirm all orders for the purchase of Shares accepted by the Company. In addition, the Company, the Managing Broker-Dealer and/or third parties engaged by the Company or the Managing Broker-Dealer may, from time to time, provide to the Dealer copies of investor letters, annual reports and other communications provided to the Company investors. The Dealer agrees that, to the extent practicable and permitted by law, all confirmations, statements, communications and other information provided to or from the Company, the Managing Broker-Dealer, the Dealer and/or their agents or customers may be provided electronically, as a preference but not as a requirement.

With respect to Shares held through custodial accounts, the Dealer agrees and acknowledges that to the extent practicable and permitted by law, all confirmations, statements, communications and other information provided from the Company, the Managing Broker-Dealer and/or their agents to Company investors may be provided solely to the custodian that is the registered owner of the Shares, rather than to the beneficial owners of the Shares. In such case it shall be the responsibility of the custodian to distribute the information to the beneficial owners of Shares.

The Dealer agrees and acknowledges that the Managing Broker-Dealer may, as a preference but not as a requirement, use an electronic platform to process subscriptions, including but not limited to the Depository Trust Company (DTC) model. If an electronic platform is used, the Dealer agrees to cooperate with the processing of subscriptions through such an electronic platform if reasonably practical.

23. Third Party Beneficiaries. The Company and its affiliates, successors and assigns shall be express third party beneficiaries of Section 1 of this Agreement.

24. Successors and Assigns. No party shall assign this Agreement or any right, interest or benefit under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Managing Broker-Dealer and Dealer and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Please confirm this Agreement to solicit persons to acquire the Shares on the foregoing terms and conditions by signing and returning the form enclosed herewith.

EXHIBIT A

MBD AGREEMENT

2 of 3

Exhibit B

INDEMNIFICATION

The Company agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless, the Managing Broker-Dealer, its members, managers, officers, employees, agents, affiliates and controlling persons within the meaning of Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, each as amended (any and all of whom are referred to as an "Indemnified Party"), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses, and all actions in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with the investigation, preparation, defense or settlement of any claim, action or proceeding, whether or not resulting in any liability), incurred by an Indemnified Party with respect to, caused by, or otherwise arising out of any transaction contemplated by this Agreement or the Managing Broker-Dealer’s performing the services contemplated hereunder; provided, however, the Company will not be liable to the extent, and only to the extent, that any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is finally judicially determined to have resulted primarily from the Managing Broker-Dealer’s gross negligence or bad faith in performing such services.

If the indemnification provided for herein is conclusively determined (by an entry of final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of the time or denial of the right to appeal) to be unavailable or insufficient to hold any Indemnified Party harmless in respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then the Company, or its owners, whether an entity or individual, shall contribute to the amounts paid or payable by such Indemnified Party in such proportion as is appropriate and equitable under all circumstances taking into account the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Managing Broker-Dealer on the other, from the transaction or proposed transaction under the Agreement or, if allocation on that basis is not permitted under applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Managing Broker-Dealer on the other, but also the relative fault of the Company and the Managing Broker-Dealer; provided, however, in no event shall the aggregate contribution of the Managing Broker-Dealer and/or any Indemnified Party be in excess of the net compensation actually received by the Managing Broker-Dealer and/or such Indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement.

The Company shall not settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any pending or threatened action, claim, suit or proceeding in which any Indemnified Party is or could be a party and as to which indemnification or contribution could have been sought by such Indemnified Party hereunder (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto), unless such consent or termination includes an express unconditional release of such Indemnified Party, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such Indemnified Party, from all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses arising out of such action, claim, suit or proceeding.

In the event any Indemnified Party shall incur any expenses covered by this Exhibit B, the Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for such covered expenses within ten (10) business days of the Indemnified Party's delivery to the Company of an invoice therefor, with receipts attached. Such obligation of the Company to so advance funds may be conditioned upon the Company's receipt of a written undertaking from the Indemnified Party to repay such amounts within ten (10) business days after a final, non-appealable judicial determination that such Indemnified Party was not entitled to indemnification hereunder.

The foregoing indemnification and contribution provisions are not in lieu of, but in addition to, any rights which any Indemnified Party may have at common law hereunder or otherwise, and shall remain in full force and effect following the expiration or termination of the Managing Broker-Dealer’s engagement and shall be binding on any successors or assigns of the Company and successors or assigns to all or substantially all of the Company's business or assets.
