This appointment shall commence on the date hereof. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Placement Agent Agreement (this “Agreement”)
and upon the basis of the representations and warranties herein set forth, you accept such appointment and agree to use your best efforts
to find purchasers of Notes. Offers and sales of Notes may only be made in accordance with the terms of the offering thereof as set forth
in the Prospectus.

forth in the Prospectus. Each prospective purchaser must complete and execute a Subscription Agreement, and return it to the undersigned
together with such other documents, instruments or information as the Manager may request together with valid funds in the full amount
of the purchase price for the number of Notes subscribed for.


 


3.
Submission of Orders. Each prospective investor shall deliver a completed and signed copy of the Subscription Agreement and must
set up an account and complete the onboarding process at the Company’s website at www.icapequity.com/vault. Investors will be required
to read and accept the Terms of Use before submitting and completing this process online. The initial investment will be made using an
ACH transfer from a U.S. bank account the investor has successfully linked during the online onboarding process. Investors must verify
their ownership of the linked U.S. bank account by completing the bank account verification process online.


 


The
Company has the right, in its sole discretion, to accept or reject any subscription and the Company will provide written confirmation
if their subscription has been accepted.


 


4.
Compensation. In consideration of your services in soliciting and obtaining purchasers of Notes, the Company agrees to pay to
you a sales commission equal to one percent (1.0%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes sold by you to investors, payable over
four calendar quarters (“Quarterly Commission Payments”) in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter (March 31, June
30, September 30 and December 31) (each a “Quarterly Commission Payment Date”) at a rate of 0.25% per quarter, commencing
on the Quarterly Commission Payment Date following the issuance of such Notes, to the extent that such Notes have not been redeemed or
repurchased, with such payments calculated on the average daily outstanding principal balances of the Notes during the applicable calendar
quarter; provided, however, to the extent that such Notes have been redeemed or repurchased prior to the completion of the applicable
four Quarterly Commission Payment Dates, no Quarterly Commission Payment shall be made on such redeemed or repurchased Notes during any
Quarterly Commission Payment Date after such redemption or repurchase of such Notes.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


Following
the four Quarterly Commission Payments, to the extent that such Notes have not been redeemed or repurchased, the Company will pay an
annual administration fee of 1.0% of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Notes sold by you to investors, payable quarterly
(“Quarterly Administration Payments”) in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter (March 31, June 30, September 30
and December 31) (each a “Quarterly Administration Payment Date”) at a rate of 0.25% per quarter, commencing on the Quarterly
Administration Payment Date following the fourth Quarterly Commission Payment of such Notes, with such payments calculated on the average
daily outstanding principal balances of the Notes during the applicable calendar quarter; provided, however, to the extent that such
Notes have been redeemed or repurchased, no Quarterly Administration Payment shall be made on such Notes during any Quarterly Administration
Payment Date after such redemption or repurchase of such Notes.


 


Notwithstanding
the foregoing, you will not be entitled to any compensation on Notes which are purchased through the reinvestment of interest, including
but not limited to Quarterly Commission Payments and Quarterly Administration Payments and under no circumstances will the Quarterly
Administration Payments, in addition to the Quarterly Commission Payments and all other forms of underwriting compensation pursuant to
FINRA Rule 2310 exceed ten percent (10%) of the gross offering proceeds.


 


Quarterly
Commission Payments and Quarterly Administration Payments shall be paid in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter as set forth
above. Any payment to you will be payable only with respect to transactions lawful in the jurisdictions where such transactions occur.


 


The
offering of Notes shall be made in compliance with FINRA Rule 2310, which governs the amount of compensation that direct participation
programs may pay for the services provided by FINRA members. Accordingly, total underwriting compensation, including Quarterly Commission
Payments and Quarterly Administration Payments to be paid by the Company for the sale of Notes shall not exceed a maximum of ten percent
(10%) of the gross proceeds of the offering. If you are a member of FINRA, you shall not re-allow all or any part of the compensation
provided for in this Section 4 to any person who is not also a member of FINRA pursuant to FINRA Rule 2040.

any government, governmental instrumentality or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over you, or any of your property; and

is no provision in your FINRA membership agreement that would restrict your ability to carry out the offering of the Notes as contemplated
by this Agreement.


 


(d)
With respect to your participation in the offer and sale of the Notes (including, without limitation, any resales and transfers of Notes),
you agree to comply in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities

You will not offer the Notes for sale in any jurisdiction unless and until you have been advised that the Notes are either registered
in accordance with, or exempt from, the securities and other laws applicable thereto.


 


(ii)
In addition, you shall, in accordance with applicable law or as prescribed by any state securities administrator, provide to any prospective
investor copies of any prescribed document which is part of the Registration Statement and any supplements thereto during the course
of the offering and prior to the sale. The Company may provide you with certain sales material approved in writing by the Manager of
the Company (“Approved Sales Literature”) to be used in connection with the solicitation of purchasers of the Notes.


 


If
you elect to use such Approved Sales Literature in connection with the solicitation of purchasers of the Notes then such material shall
not be used by you unless accompanied or preceded by the Prospectus, as then currently in effect, and as it may be amended or supplemented
in the future.


 


(iii)
You agree that you will not use any Approved Sales Literature other than those provided to you by the Company for use in the offering.

thereto and any amended Prospectus to each investor to whom an offer is made prior to or simultaneously with the first solicitation of
any offer to sell the Notes to an investor. You agree to deliver or send any supplements and any amended Prospectus to any investor you
have previously sent to or given a Prospectus prior to or simultaneously with the first solicitation of an offer to sell the Notes to
an investor.


 


You
will not deliver the Approved Sales Literature to any person unless such Approved Sales Literature is accompanied or preceded by a copy
of the Prospectus. You expressly agree not to prepare or use any sales literature, advertisements or other materials in connection with
the offering or sale of the Notes without our prior written consent. You agree that to the extent information is provided to you marked
“For Broker-Dealer Use Only”, you will not provide such information to prospective investors.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


(f)
You will solicit only eligible purchasers of Notes as described in the Prospectus, including under “NOTICES TO INVESTORS OF CERTAIN
STATES AND SUITABILITY STANDARDS”, and will offer the Notes to persons only in the jurisdictions in which you are legally qualified
to so act and in which you have been advised by the Company in writing that the Notes are qualified for sale or that such qualification
is not required.


 


(g)
You agree to make diligent inquiries and maintain a record thereof for a period of at least six years of all investors in the Notes,
in order to determine whether the purchase of Notes represents a suitable investment for such investor, and whether the investor is otherwise
eligible to purchase Notes in accordance with the terms of the offering. Such inquiry shall also be made with respect to any resales
or transfers of Notes. Accordingly, you shall satisfy the following requirements:


 


(i)
In recommending to an investor the purchase of Notes, you shall have reasonable grounds to believe, on the basis of information obtained
from the investor concerning his investment objectives, other investments, financial situation and needs, and any other information known
by you or your representatives, that the investor (or, if the investor is acting as trustee or custodian of a trust or other entity,
that such other trust or entity) is or will be in a financial position to realize to a significant extent the benefits described in the
Prospectus, that such investor has a fair market net worth sufficient to sustain the risks inherent in the purchase of Notes, including
loss of the investment and lack of liquidity, and that Notes are otherwise suitable as an investment. In making this suitability determination,
you shall ascertain that the prospective investor:


 


a.
meets the minimum income and net worth standard set forth in the Prospectus;


 


b.
can reasonably benefit from an investment in Notes based on the prospective investor’s overall investment objectives and portfolio
structure;


 


c.
has apparent understanding of:


 


	 	i.	the
    fundamental risks of the investment;
	 	 	 
	 	ii.	the
    risk that the investor may lose the entire investment;
	 	 	 
	 	iii.	the
    lack of liquidity of the Notes;
	 	 	 
	 	iv.	the
    restrictions on transferability of the Notes;
	 	 	 
	 	v.	background
    and qualifications of the Manager; and
	 	 	 
	 	vi.	the
    tax consequences of the investment.


 


You
will make this determination on the basis of the information you have obtained from the prospective investor. Relevant information for
this purpose will include at least the age, investment objectives, investment experience, income, net worth, financial situation, and
other investments of the prospective investor, as well as any other pertinent factors.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


(ii)
You shall also maintain in your files, for at least six years from the date of sale of the Notes to each purchaser, documents disclosing
the basis upon which your determination of suitability was reached as to each investor. Upon reasonable notice to you, the Manager, or
its designated agents, shall have the right to inspect such records.


 


(iii)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, you shall not execute any transaction for the purchase or sale of Notes in a discretionary account, without
prior written approval of the transaction by your customer.


 


(iv)
Prior to executing any transaction for the purchase or sale of Notes, and any resale or transfer of Notes as permitted, you (or one of
your associated persons) shall fully inform the investor of all pertinent facts relating to the liquidity and marketability of Notes
during the term of the Company.


 


(h)
You agree that you will not rely on the Company and the Manager to satisfy your duty of due diligence and, in particular, you agree to
obtain from the Company and from other sources such information as you deem necessary to comply with FINRA Rule 2310. You further agree
to supply the Company with such written reports of your activities relating to the offer and sale of Notes as the Company may request
from time to time.


 


(i)
You agree to diligently make inquiries as required by law of all prospective purchasers of Notes in order to ascertain whether a purchase
of Notes is suitable for each such purchaser, and not rely solely on information supplied by each purchaser. You also agree to promptly
transmit to the Company all fully completed and duly executed Subscription Agreements.


 


(j)
You have reasonable grounds to believe (based on information made available to you by the Manager through the Prospectus and other materials,
or otherwise obtained as a result of inquiries conducted by you or other FINRA member firms) that all material facts concerning the Company
are adequately and accurately disclosed and provide a basis for evaluating the Company, including facts relating to items of compensation,
physical properties, tax aspects, financial stability and experience of the sponsor, conflicts of interest and risk factors, and appraisals
or other reports.


 


(k)
For purposes of 4(j) above, you may rely upon the results of an inquiry conducted by another member broker-dealer, provided that:


 


(i)
You have reasonable grounds to believe that such inquiry was conducted with due care;


 


(ii)
The results of the inquiry were provided to you with the consent of the member broker-dealer conducting or directing the inquiry; and


 


(iii)
No broker-dealer that participated in the inquiry is the Manager or affiliate of the Manager.


 


(l)
You agree that for the investors that you make a recommendation for the purchase of the Notes you will abide by and comply with the applicable
requirements of Regulation Best Interest, as adopted by the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 5, 2019, and the
accompanying rules and forms, including but not limited to, the requirement that broker-dealers provide a Form CRS (Relationship Summary
for Brokers and Dealers Providing Services to Retail Investors, Pursuant to § 240.17a-14 of This Chapter) to retail investors and
the associated record-making and recordkeeping requirements.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


(m)
If you use electronic delivery to distribute the Prospectus to any person or you allow the use of electronic signatures, you will comply
with all applicable requirements of the SEC, the Blue Sky laws and/or FINRA and any other laws and regulations related to the electronic
delivery of documents and the use of electronic signatures. You agree that you will rely upon no statement whatsoever, written or oral,
other than the statements in the final Prospectus (as amended or supplemented from time to time) or in Approved Sales Literature. You
are not authorized by the Company to give any information or to make any representation not contained in the final Prospectus (as amended
or supplemented from time to time) or in Approved Sales Literature in connection with the sale of the Notes.

The Notes, when issued, will be duly and validly issued and will conform to the description thereof contained in the Prospectus; such
Notes are not subject to the preemptive rights of any Note holder of the Company; and all action required to be taken for the authorization,

The Company does not intend to conduct its business so as to be an “investment company” as that term is defined in the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Company Act”), and the rules and regulation thereunder, and it will exercise reasonable
diligence to ensure that it does not become an “investment company” within the meaning of the Company Act.


 


(d)

Manager enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy and similar laws and principles of equity. The execution
and delivery of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated and the compliance with the terms hereof by
the Manager and the Company do not and will not conflict with or constitute a default under the organizational documents of such entities,
or any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, lease or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or Manager is a party as of this
date, or any law, order, rule or regulation, writ, injunction or decree of any government, governmental instrumentality or court, domestic
or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Manager or the Company, or any of their respective property; and no consent, approval, authorization

with your due diligence investigation relating to the offering of Notes, were materially accurate as of the date provided.


 


(f)
Any and all Approved Sales Literature prepared by the Manager or the Company, for use with potential investors in connection with the
offering of Notes, when used in conjunction with the Prospectus, will not at the time provided for use, include any untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


If
at any time any event occurs as a result of which such Approved Sales Literature when used in conjunction with the Prospectus would include
an untrue statement of a material fact or, in view of the circumstances under which they were made, omit to state any material fact necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading, the Manager or the Company will promptly notify you thereof, and you agree to terminate
the use of any such Approved Sales Literature after being informed.


 


(g)
To the best of our knowledge, the Company is not in any material violation of its Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement, as amended,
or in default in the performance or observance of any material obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any contract,
indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its
properties is bound which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect upon the Company.


 


(h)
The Registration Statement has been prepared and filed by the Company in conformity with the Securities Act and the applicable instructions
and the Securities Act Rules and Regulations. The SEC has not issued any order preventing or suspending the use of any prospectus or
preliminary prospectus filed with the Registration Statement or any amendments thereto. At the time the Registration Statement became
effective (the “Effective Date”) and at the time that any post-effective amendment thereto becomes effective and at all times
subsequent thereto up to the final termination of the offering, the Registration Statement and Prospectus (as amended or as supplemented)
will contain all statements which are required to be stated therein in accordance with the Securities Act and the Securities Act Rules
and Regulations and will in all respects conform to the requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities Act Rules and Regulations,
and will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.


 


(i)
The Blue Sky Memorandum provided to you, as supplemented or amended to the extent such supplement or amendment is provided to you in
writing, accurately indicates the states in which the Notes are exempt from, or have been registered or qualified under, applicable state
securities or Blue Sky laws, and sets forth the restrictions, if any, on the rights of broker dealers to solicit sales thereof.


 


(j)
To the best of our knowledge, there is no material action, suit or proceeding pending or threatened before or by any court or governmental
agency or body, to which the Company or the Manager is a party, except for such actions, suits or proceedings that have been publicly
disclosed in the Company’s filings with the SEC.


 


(k)
To the best of our knowledge, since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus,
as amended or supplemented from time to time, except as may otherwise be stated in or contemplated by the Registration Statement, the
Prospectus or other subsequent filings of the Company with the SEC, there has not been any material adverse change in the financial condition
or in the earnings, affairs or business prospects of the Company whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, and there
have not been any material transactions entered into by the Company except in the ordinary course of business.

firm within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Securities Act Rules and Regulations. Such accountants have not been engaged by
the Company to perform any “prohibited activities” (as defined in Section 10A of the Exchange Act).


 


The
consolidated financial statements filed with the SEC as a part of the Registration Statement and included in the Prospectus, subsequent
filings, and as updated by the annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q present fairly the financial position of
the Company and its subsidiaries as of and at the dates indicated and the results of their operations and cash flows for the periods
specified. Such financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
(U.S. GAAP) applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved.

The Company shall provide, pursuant to FINRA Rule 2310(b)(5), the following:


 


(i)
a per Note estimated value developed in a manner reasonably designed to ensure it is reliable, in the Company’s periodic reports
filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;


 


(ii)
an explanation of the method by which the per Note estimated value was developed;


 


(iii)
the date of the valuation; and


 


(iv)
in a periodic or current report filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act within 150 days following the second anniversary
of breaking escrow, if applicable and in each annual report thereafter, a per Note estimated value:


 


a.
based on valuations of the assets and liabilities of the Company performed at least annually, by, or with the material assistance or
confirmation of, a third-party valuation expert or service;


 


b.
derived from a methodology that conforms to standard industry practice; and

7.
Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Program. Your acceptance of this Agreement constitutes a representation to the Manager and the
Company that you have established and implemented anti-money laundering compliance programs, in accordance with applicable law, including
applicable FINRA rules, SEC rules and the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and
Obstruct Terrorism Act (USA PATRIOT Act) of 2001 (the “Patriot Act”), which are reasonably expected to detect and cause reporting
of suspicious transactions in connection with the sale of Notes of the Company.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


8.
Confidentiality and Privacy. The Manager, the Company and you shall, when applicable:


 


(a)
abide by and comply with (i) the privacy standards and requirements of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the “GLB Act”)
and applicable regulations promulgated thereunder, (ii) the privacy standards and requirements of any other applicable federal or state
law, including but not limited to, the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”), and (iii) its own internal privacy policies and
procedures, each as may be amended from time to time;


 


(b)
refrain from the use or disclosure of nonpublic personal information (as defined under the GLB Act) of all customers who have opted out
of such disclosures except as necessary to service the customers or as otherwise necessary or required by applicable law;


 


(c)
except as expressly permitted under the FCRA, the Company, the Manager, and you shall not disclose any information that would be considered
a “consumer report” under the FCRA;


 


(d)
determine which customers have opted out of the disclosure of nonpublic personal information by periodically reviewing and, if necessary,
retrieving an aggregated list of such customers from the broker-dealers which have singed a Placement Agent Agreement (the “List”)
to identify customers that have exercised their opt-out rights.


 


If
either party uses or discloses nonpublic personal information of any customer for purposes other than servicing the customer, or as otherwise
required by applicable law, that party will consult the List to determine whether the affected customer has exercised his or her opt-out
rights. Each party understands that it is prohibited from using or disclosing any nonpublic personal information of any customer that
is identified on the List as having opted out of such disclosures;


 


(e)
The Manager, the Company and you shall establish and maintain safeguards against the unauthorized access, destruction, loss, or alteration
of non-public personal Information in your respective control which are no less rigorous than those maintained by a party for its own
information of a similar nature. In the event of any improper disclosure of any non-public personal Information, the party responsible
for the disclosure will immediately notify the other party.


 


(f)
The provisions of this Section 8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.


 


9.
Termination. Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time, effective immediately, by giving written notice to other party.
In the event of termination, you shall not be entitled to any commissions or any restitution for the value of your services rendered
prior to or subsequent to the effective date of such termination, excepting only such commissions as may have been earned with respect
to Notes already sold by you and accepted by the Company prior to the termination date.


 


10.
Expenses. You shall bear all your own expenses incurred in connection with the offer and sale of Notes, and you shall not be entitled
to any reimbursement for such expenses by the Company except to the extent of any expenses specified in Section 4 (Compensation) of this
Agreement.

The Company and the Manager agree to indemnify you and your officers, directors, representatives and controlling persons against losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) to which you or such other persons may become subject, under

arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Prospectus, or any breach of this Agreement (or
any addendum thereto), or is inconsistent with or in violation of any provision of federal or state securities laws, the rules and regulations
of the SEC, or the omission to state therein, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein

defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, and shall be paid by you as such expenses are incurred. You agree to repay

state securities laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out
of or are based upon any statements, actions or omissions by you or any person controlled by you or acting on your behalf, which statement,
action or omission is untrue, or any breach of this Agreement (or any addendum thereto), or is inconsistent with or in violation of any
provision of federal or state securities laws, the rules and regulations of the SEC or FINRA.


 


The
foregoing indemnity shall include reimbursement of any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigation or

there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged securities law violations as to the particular
indemnitee, or


 


(ii)
such claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the particular indemnitee, or


 


(iii)
a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against a particular indemnitee and finds that indemnification

(iv)
in the case of subparagraph (iii) of this paragraph, the court of law considering the request for indemnification has been advised of
the position of the SEC and the position of any state securities regulatory authority in which securities of the Company were offered

of the securities regulatory authorities of those states which are specifically set forth in the operating agreement; and


 


(d)

(e)
The provision of advancement from Company funds to a Manager or its affiliates for legal expenses and other costs incurred as a result
of any legal action is permissible if the following conditions are satisfied:


 


(i)
the legal action relates to the performance of duties or services on behalf of the Company;


 


(ii)
the legal action is initiated by a person who is not an investor, or a court of competent jurisdiction specifically approves such advancement;
and


 


(iii)
the Manager or its affiliates undertake to repay the advanced funds to the Company in cases in which such person is not entitled to indemnification.


 


(f)
Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action for which indemnification is provided under
subsection (a) or (b) above, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made hereunder against the indemnifying
party, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission to notify the indemnifying party shall
not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise under such subsection.


 


In
each case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof
and the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other indemnifying
party similarly notified, assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party.


 


(g)
The indemnified party additionally may elect to employ its own legal counsel, but if it elects to do so the indemnifying party shall
not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal expenses of such other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.


 


If,
however, the indemnified party reasonably concludes that there may be defenses available to it that are different from or additional
to those available to the indemnifying party, then the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of any such
action or proceeding on behalf of the indemnified party and the reasonable legal and other expenses incurred by the indemnified party
in its own defense shall be borne by the indemnifying party.


 


(h)
In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in any case in which:


 


(i)
a claim is made for indemnification pursuant to this Section 11 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or
decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such
indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that express provisions of this Section 11 provide for indemnification
in such case; or


 


(ii)
contribution may be required on the part of a party thereto, then the Manager, the Company, and participating dealers shall contribute
to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, or liabilities to which they may be subject (which shall, for all purposes of this Agreement
include, without limitation, all costs of defense and investigation and all attorneys fees) in either such case (after contribution from
others) in such proportions that the participating dealers are responsible in the aggregate for that portion of such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities represented by the percentage that the aggregate amounts received by the participating dealers pursuant to Section
4 (Compensation) of this Agreement bear to the aggregate of the offering price of the Notes, and the Manager and the Company shall be
responsible for the balance; provided, however, that the contribution of each such participating dealer shall not be in excess of its
proportionate share (based upon the ratio of the aggregate purchase price of the Notes sold by such participating dealer to the aggregate
purchase price of the Notes sold) of the portion of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities for which the participating dealer is
responsible.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


No
person guilty of a fraudulent misrepresentation shall be entitled to contribution from any person who is not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. If the full amount of the contribution specified in this subsection (h) of Section 11 is not permitted by law, then
each participating dealer and each person who controls each participating dealer shall be entitled to contribution from the Manager and
the Company and controlling persons to the full extent permitted by law.
