http://www.bladchelis.com/Prodlnfo/Files/13LH8000-Manual —EN.pdf

# Aircraft Maintenance

To ensure safe operational control. A maintenance schedule will be followed, personal tailored maintenance manual has been created, and quality

replacement parts will be used.

— Inspection: Before and after every flight, the quadcopter's operational condition will be inspected for damage and deterioration. — Replacement Parts will be purchased from Blade Manufactures. — Repairs will be performed by a professional authorized retailer of the

Blade products where purchased from.

# Safety Concerns

Spotter for Hazards: To ensure safety, either the co-listing agent, seller, or another party, will be on site to review hazards before and during the flight.

Population of intended Areas: To ensure safety, all non-essential personnel will be removed from the area. There will be no flight over heavily populated areas like stadiums, schools, malls, airports, casinos, and freeways.

Airports: To ensure pilot(s) safety, there will be no flight in or around airports unless explicit written permission is granted.

Heavy Air Space Traffic: To ensure pilot safety, there will be minimal flight in heavy flight traffic areas or in known flight patterns.

Weather: To ensure safety of spotter, co-listing agents, property owners, and pet and wildlife flights will be conducted in optimal weather conditions.

Return-to-Home Features: In the event the Blade 350QX loses signal or runs critically low on battery the UAS has a GPS controlled return to home feature. The "Home" is set upon flight startup.

Flying in Confined Areas: There is a high probability of flying in confined spaces, around residential properties.

# Potential Hazards

The following are potential hazards that may or may not be present during flight operations.

— Jets, Airplanes, Gliders and other UASs. — Houses, Commercial Buildings, Shops, and Out Buildings. — Power Lines, Low Voltage Lines, High Voltage Lines, Cable Lines — Trees, Shrubs, Hedges — Automobiles and Rvs — Wildlife, both land and air — Rivers, Lakes, Ponds, Sounds, Straits, and Other Bodies of Water — Unaccounted for People — Unaccounted for Pets

# Privacy Concerns

During flight operations, privacy concerns are of the highest priority.

With each commercial flight a signed Addendum from our Real Estate Team will be in place (See Exhibit A).

In addition, I will have a Seller/Properry Owner signed letter authorizing the UAS's use for marketing purposes. (Exhibit B).

Neighboring parcels or properties: During each flight operation, the UAS pilot will be extremely mindful of neighboring parcels to not film, record, or take pictures of people and property without their written and signed consent.

Suburban Homes and Properties

Homes that are within residential neighborhoods, it is easy for the camera°s field of view to record and take pictures of homes and properties that are not intended to be advertised for sale. As the UAS increases altitude, so does the risk of inadvertently filming a home or property that hasn't given written permission to do so.

However, in many home property listing pictures it happens that neighboring homes are in the advertising pictures due to the neighboring layout and neighboring properties.

It is the opinion of Robert McArtor that higher altitude video and pictures are not as effective when advertising a suburban home because:

1. Higher altitude video and pictures isn't that useful in showing the lot's layout. 2. It is easy to discern lot lines and property boundaries from ground level recorded plat maps. 3. Privacy is an instant concern.

## Properties with Acreage

Homes and properties with acreage have a higher degree of uncertainty when trying to determine lot lines, boundaries, proximity to neighboring properties than a suburban home. Also, people looking to purchase a home with acreage, or a larger lot, have a higher degree of interest on knowing were the approximate lot lines are from an aerial perspective. That is why homes and property with acreage makes more sense to film with a UAS.

Homes with View & Waterfront

People looking to purchase and/or sell a home, or a property, with a view, or on waterfront, want to see the home or properry from an aerial perspective and to be showcased in this format. This is part of property owner profile. In addition, even though neighboring parcels might be shown in the picture and video, the neighboring properties will only be included if it is necessary to the subject property's marketing materials.

# Oberational Conditions

To capture high resolution images and video operational conditions will be closely monitored because showcasing a home in the best light is the utmost client priority.

Day Time:

1. Sunny Weather is Highly Preferred 2. Little to No Cloud Cover 3. Zero to Low Wind Speeds 4. High Visibility Conditions

No Night-Time Operations are Scheduled

The National Flood Insurance Program ("NFIP") establishes flood insurance policy premiums based on the risk of flooding in the area where properties are located. Due to amendments to federal law governing the NFIP, those premiums are increasing, and in some cases will rise by a substantial amount over the premiums previously charged for flood insurance. As a result, premiums paid for flood insurance on the Property may not be indicative of premiums that will apply after the Property is purchased. Also, the State of Maryland in conjunction with the Federal Emergency Management Agency has been systematically updating flood insurance rate maps. The Property may be affected.
