 Greenbacker Renewable Energy Company LLC

 Up to $1,500,000,000 in Shares of Limited Liability Company Interests 

                 , 2013 

SC Distributors, LLC 
 610 Newport Center Drive,
Suite 350 
 Newport Beach, CA 92660 

Ladies and Gentlemen: 

Greenbacker Renewable Energy Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), that will elect to be
treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, has registered for public sale (the “Offering”) a maximum of $1.5 billion in any combination of Class A, Class C and Class I shares of limited liability company
interests of the Company (the “Shares”), of which amount: (a) up to $1.25 billion in Shares is being offered to the public pursuant to the Company’s primary offering (the “Primary Shares”); and (b) up
to $250 million in Shares is being offered pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRIP Shares” and, together with the Primary Shares, the “Offered Shares”), upon the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth in the Prospectus (as defined in Section 1.1 below). The differences between the classes of Shares and the eligibility requirements for each class are described in detail in the Prospectus. The Primary Shares are to be
issued and sold to the public on a “best efforts” basis through: (a) SC Distributors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Dealer Manager”), as the exclusive managing dealer; and (b) other
broker-dealers retained by the Dealer Manager, at its sole discretion, to participate in the Offering (the “Participating Dealers”) at an initial offering price of $10.00 per Class A Share, $9.576 per Class C Share and $9.186
per Class I Share (subject in certain circumstances to discounts based upon the volume of shares purchased and for certain categories of purchasers). Following the first quarterly valuation of assets which will take place during the first fiscal
quarter following the satisfaction of the Minimum Offering, as defined in Section 1.10(b) hereof, to the extent the Company’s net asset value on the most recent valuation date increases above or decreases below the Company’s net
proceeds per share, the offering price for the Primary Shares will be adjusted as necessary to ensure that after the effective date of the new offering prices of the Primary Shares, the offering prices, after deduction of selling commissions, dealer
manager fees, organization and offering expenses, are not above or below the Company’s net asset value per share as of the most recent valuation date. The adjusted offering price for the Shares will become effective five business days after the
Company determines to set the new prices and publicly discloses such prices. Each class of DRIP Shares will be initially sold at $9.025 per Share until such time as the Company commences valuations of its assets at the end of the first full quarter
following the satisfaction of the Minimum Offering requirement and, thereafter, at the price equal to the then current offering price per Share, less the sales fees associated with that class of shares in the Company’s primary
offering. The Company reserves the right to reallocate the Offered Shares between the Primary Shares and the DRIP Shares. 







 The Company will be externally managed and advised by Greenbacker Capital Management LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company (the “Advisor”), pursuant to the advisory agreement to be entered into between the Company, Greenbacker Renewable Energy Corporation and the Advisor (the “Advisory Agreement”)
substantially in the form included as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (as defined in Section 1.1 below). 
 The
Company hereby appoints the Dealer Manager as its exclusive agent and managing dealer for the Offering, to solicit, and to cause Participating Dealers to solicit, purchasers of the Offered Shares at their respective purchase prices, as such may
change from time to time, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Prospectus, and the Dealer Manager hereby accepts such engagement and agrees to use its best efforts to procure purchasers of the Offered Shares during the
Offering Period (as defined in Section 11.1 below). 
 1. Representations and Warranties of the Company. 

The Company and the Advisor hereby jointly and severally represent, warrant and agree to the Dealer Manager and each Participating
Dealer, as of the date hereof and at all times during the Offering Period (provided that, to the extent such representations and warranties are given as of a specified date or dates, the Company and Advisor make such representations and warranties
only as of such date or dates) as follows:

the applicable Effective Date or Filing Date, as the case may be, and, during the term of this Agreement, in all material respects with the Securities Act and the Securities Act Regulations, the Exchange Act, and the Exchange Act Regulations; the
Registration Statement does not, and any amendments thereto will not, in each case as of the applicable Effective Date, contain an untrue statement of material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in

Advisor, as the case may be, or received or retained any funds, and no funds of the Company or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, have been set aside to be used for any payment, in each case in material violation of any law, rule or regulation

consents and other authorizations (collectively, “Governmental Licenses”) issued by the appropriate federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct the business now operated by them, except where
the failure to obtain such Governmental Licenses, singly or in the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with the terms and conditions of all such Governmental Licenses, except where
the failure to so comply would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect, and all of the Governmental Licenses are valid and in full force and effect, except where the invalidity of such Governmental Licenses to be in full

Registration Statement.

or procedures), trademarks, service marks, trade names or other intellectual property (collectively, “Intellectual Property”) necessary to carry on the business now operated by the Company and its Subsidiaries, respectively, except
where the failure to have such ownership or possession would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. Unless otherwise disclosed in the Prospectus, none of the Company or its Subsidiaries has received any notice or is
otherwise aware of any infringement of, or conflict with, asserted rights of others with respect to any Intellectual Property or of any facts or circumstances which would render any Intellectual Property invalid or inadequate to protect the interest

(y) use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any such order, and (z) if any such order is issued, to obtain the lifting or removal of such order as promptly as possible. Prior to amending or supplementing the
Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (including any amendment or supplement through incorporation of any report filed under the Exchange Act), the Company shall furnish to the Dealer Manager for its review, a
reasonable period of time prior to the proposed time of filing or use thereof, a copy of each such proposed amendment or supplement, and the Company shall not file or use any such proposed amendment or supplement without the Dealer Manager’s
consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

preliminary and final form and every form of supplemental or amended Prospectus; and (b) the Authorized Sales Materials. 

2.3 Blue Sky Qualifications. The Company will use its reasonable efforts to qualify the Offered Shares for offering and sale
under, or to establish the exemption of the offering and sale of the Offered Shares from qualification or registration under, the applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws of each of the 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto
Rico (such jurisdictions in which qualifications or exemptions for the offer and sale of the Offered Shares are in effect as of a relevant date are referred to herein as the “Qualified Jurisdictions”), to file such documents and
furnish such information as may be reasonably required for that purpose, and to maintain such qualifications or exemptions in effect throughout the Offering. In connection therewith, the Company will prepare and file all such post-sales filings or
reports as 

  
 10 









 
may be required by the securities regulatory authorities in the Qualified Jurisdictions in which the Offered Shares have been sold, provided that the Dealer Manager shall provide the Company with
any information required for such filings or reports that is solely in the Dealer Manager’s possession and is reasonably requested by the Company. The Company will furnish to the Dealer Manager a blue sky memorandum, prepared and updated from
time to time by counsel to the Company, naming the Qualified Jurisdictions, which shall be true and correct in all respects, and which the Dealer Manager shall rely upon in making offers and sales in such Qualified Jurisdictions. The Company will,
at the Dealer Manager’s request, furnish the Dealer Manager with a copy of such documents and information filed by the Company in connection with such qualifications and exemptions. The Company will notify the Dealer Manager promptly following
a change in the status of the qualification or exemption of the Offered Shares in any jurisdiction in any respect, including any stop order preventing or suspending the use of the Prospectus or of the institution of any proceedings for that purpose,
and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any such order, and if any such order is issued, to obtain the lifting or removal of such order as promptly as possible. The Company will file and obtain clearance of the
Authorized Sales Material to the extent required by applicable Securities Act Regulations and state securities laws. 
 2.4
Material Disclosures. If at any time when a Prospectus is required to be delivered under the Securities Act any event occurs, or the Company receives notice from the Dealer Manager that it believes such an event has occurred, as a result of
which the Prospectus or any Authorized Sales Materials would include an 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 light of the circumstances

and shall make available to the Dealer Manager sufficient copies thereof for its own use and/or distribution to the Participating Dealers. The Dealer Manager and the Participating Dealers shall suspend the offering and sale of the Offered Shares in

shall not be restricted from (a) employing any such person who contacts it on his or her own initiative and without any direct or indirect solicitation by the Company, and (b) advertising in publications or other general solicitations for

customers from the Dealer Manager and the Participating Dealers periodically provided to the Company by the Dealer Manager (the “List”) to identify customers that have exercised their opt-out rights. Prior to disclosing nonpublic
personal information of any customer for purposes other than servicing the customer, or as otherwise required by applicable law, the Company 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.

The Advisor hereby represents and warrants, covenants and agrees to the Dealer Manager, as of the date hereof and at all times during the
term of this Agreement (provided that, to the extent representations and warranties are given only as of a specified date or dates, the Advisor only makes such representations and warranties as of such date or dates) as follows: 

3.1 Good Standing of the Advisor. 
 (a) The Advisor is a limited liability company duly formed and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with all requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to carry
out its obligations hereunder. Each of this Agreement and the Advisory Agreement is duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Advisor and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Advisor, enforceable in
accordance with its terms (except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws of the United States, any state or any political subdivision thereof which affect creditors’
rights generally or by equitable principles relating to the availability of remedies or except to the extent that the enforceability of the indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Agreement may be limited under applicable securities
laws). 
 (b) The Advisor is qualified to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the conduct of its
business in connection with the Offering requires such qualification, except where the failure to do so would not result in a Material Adverse Effect on the Advisor. 
 3.2 Legal Proceedings. Unless otherwise described in the Prospectus, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or brought by any court or governmental agency or body,
domestic or foreign, now pending, or, to the knowledge of the Advisor, threatened against or affecting the Advisor (a) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement, (b) which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect on the Advisor, or (c) which might adversely affect the registration of the Advisor with the SEC. 

  
 14 









 3.3 Possession of Licenses and Permits. The Advisor possesses, and will possess, such
Governmental Licenses issued by the appropriate federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct the business now, or from time to time, as applicable, operated by it, except where the failure to obtain such
Governmental Licenses, singly or in the aggregate, would not result in (a) a Material Adverse Effect on the Advisor or (b) a material adverse effect on the performance of the services under the Advisory Agreement by the Advisor. As of the
date hereof, the Advisor has not received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such Governmental License, which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject to an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would
result in a Material Adverse Effect on the Advisor. 
 3.4 Absence of Defaults and Conflicts. The Advisor is not in
violation of its certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement and other organizational and operating documents. The execution and delivery of each of this Agreement and the Advisory Agreement and the performance thereunder by the
Advisor, do not and will not conflict with or violate the terms of or constitute or result in a breach of or default under or result in a breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under: (a) the Advisor’s
certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement, or other organizational documents; (b) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, voting trust agreement, note, lease or other agreement or instrument to which the Advisor is a party
or by which the Advisor or any of its properties is bound; (c) any law, rule or regulation applicable to the Advisor promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the rules of FINRA, or any state securities law of any state in which
the Advisor is, or is required to be, qualified to transact business or as may be required by subsequent events which may occur; or (d) any writ, injunction or decree of any government, governmental instrumentality or court, domestic or
foreign, having jurisdiction over the Advisor or any of its properties, except to the extent that any conflict with, violation of, breach of or default under (a) through (d) above have not and would not reasonably be expected to result in
a Material Adverse Effect on the Advisor. No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or other governmental agency or body has been or is required for the performance of the Advisory Agreement by the Advisor except (i) such as
have been already obtained under the Securities Act or (ii) as may be required under state securities laws. 
 3.5
Investment Advisor. No later than such time as the Advisor is required to register as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (collectively, the “Advisers
Act”), the Advisor will be registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act and will not be prohibited by the Advisers Act or the Investment Company Act from acting under the Advisory Agreement for the Company as contemplated by
the Prospectus. To the Advisor’s knowledge, there do not exist any facts or circumstances the existence of which could lead to any proceeding which might adversely affect the registration of the Advisor with the SEC.

 4. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Dealer Manager. The Dealer Manager hereby represents
and warrants, covenants and agrees to the Company and the Advisor, as of the date hereof and at all times during the term of this Agreement (provided that, to the extent representations and warranties are given only as of a specified date or dates,
the Dealer Manager only makes such representations and warranties as of such date or dates) as follows: 
 4.1 Good Standing
of the Dealer Manager. The Dealer Manager is a limited liability company duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with full power and authority to conduct its business and to enter into this Agreement and to
perform the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Dealer Manager and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, constitutes a legal, valid
and binding agreement of the Dealer Manager enforceable against the Dealer Manager in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’
rights generally, and by general equitable principles relating to the availability of remedies, and except to the extent that the enforceability of the indemnity provisions and the contribution provisions contained in Sections 9 and 10 of this
Agreement, respectively, may be limited under applicable securities laws. 
 4.2 Compliance with Applicable Laws, Rules and
Regulations. 
 (a) The Dealer Manager (i) is duly registered as a broker-dealer pursuant to the provisions of the
Exchange Act, (ii) is a member of FINRA in good standing, (iii) is a broker or dealer duly registered as such in those states where the Dealer Manager is required to be registered in order to carry out the Offering as contemplated by this
Agreement, and (iv) it has, and its employees and representatives who will perform services hereunder have, all required licenses and registrations to act under this Agreement. There is no provision in the Dealer Manager’s FINRA membership
agreement that would prohibit or restrict the ability of the Dealer Manager to carry out the Offering as contemplated by this Agreement. 
 (b) With respect to the Dealer Manager’s participation and the participation by each Participating Dealer in the offer and sale of the Offered Shares (including, without limitation any resales and
transfers of Offered Shares), the Dealer Manager agrees to comply, and each Participating Dealer shall agree to comply in all material respects, in the executed Participating Dealer Agreement between such Participating Dealer and the Dealer Manager,
in substantially the form attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement, subject to any reasonable adjustments as determined in the sole discretion of the Dealer Manager (the “Participating Dealer Agreement”), with all applicable
requirements of (i) the Securities Act, the Securities Act Rules and Regulations, the Exchange Act, the Exchange Act Rules and Regulations and all other federal rules and regulations applicable to the Offering and the sale of the Offered
Shares, (ii) all applicable state securities or blue sky laws, (iii) FINRA Rules applicable to the Offering, specifically including, but not in any way limited to, Conduct Rules 2310, 2340, 2420, 2730, 2740 and 2750, and (iv) the
provisions of Section III.C. of the Omnibus Guidelines of the North American Securities Administrators Association, Inc. (the “NASAA Guidelines”). The Dealer Manager agrees that to the extent it executes a Participating Dealer
Agreement with a Participating Dealer that deviates in any material respect from the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, that it shall provide to the Company a copy of such agreement and a summary of such deviations promptly in such a manner as to
allow the Company to make timely filings as necessary. 
 4.3 Participating Dealers. The Dealer Manager will use
commercially reasonable efforts to engage and retain Participating Dealers to offer and sell the Offered Shares. The Offered Shares shall be offered and sold only by the Dealer Manager and the Participating


  
 16 









 
Dealers the Dealer Manager may retain; provided, however, that (i) each Participating Dealer whom the Dealer Manager retains shall represent to the Dealer Manager that it is (a) duly
registered as a broker-dealer pursuant to the provisions of the Exchange Act and a member of FINRA in good standing and (b) duly licensed or registered by the regulatory authorities in the jurisdictions in which they will offer and sell Primary
Shares, as set forth in an executed Participating Dealer Agreement between such Participating Dealer and the Dealer Manager and (ii) all such engagements of Participating Dealers are evidenced by written agreements, the terms and conditions of
which substantially conform to the Participating Dealer Agreement, subject to any reasonable adjustments as determined in the sole discretion of the Dealer Manager. 
 4.4 AML Compliance. Although acting as a wholesale distributor and not itself selling Shares directly to investors, the Dealer Manager represents to the Company that it has established and
implemented anti-money laundering compliance programs in accordance with applicable law, including applicable FINRA Conduct Rules, Exchange Act Regulations and the USA PATRIOT Act, specifically including, but not limited to, Section 352 of the
International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act of 2001 (the “Money Laundering Abatement Act,” and together with the USA PATRIOT Act, the “AML Rules”) reasonably expected to detect and
cause the reporting of suspicious transactions in connection with the offering and sale of the Offered Shares. The Dealer Manager further represents that it is currently in compliance with all AML Rules, specifically including, but not limited to,
the Customer Identification Program requirements under Section 326 of the Money Laundering Abatement Act, and the Dealer Manager hereby covenants to remain in compliance with such requirements and shall, upon request by the Company, provide a
certification to the Company that, as of the date of such certification (a) its AML Program is consistent with the AML Rules and (b) it is currently in compliance with all AML Rules, specifically including, but not limited to, the Customer
Identification Program requirements under Section 326 of the Money Laundering Abatement Act. 
 4.5 Accuracy of
Information. The Dealer Manager represents and warrants that the information under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in the Prospectus insofar as it relates to the Dealer Manager and all other information furnished to the Company by
the Dealer Manager in writing expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, does not contain 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
 4.6 Suitability. 
 (a) Notwithstanding the qualification of the Offered
Shares for sale in any respective jurisdiction (or the exemption therefrom), the Dealer Manager will not offer Offered Shares, and will not permit any of its registered representatives to offer Offered Shares, in any jurisdiction unless both the
Dealer Manager and such registered representative (i) are duly licensed to transact securities business in such jurisdiction and (ii) have been advised in writing by the Company that the Offered Shares are qualified or registered under the
applicable laws of such jurisdiction or that such qualification or registration is not required in such jurisdiction and that the Offered Shares may be offered and sold in such jurisdiction. In its agreement with each


  
 17 









 
Participating Dealer, the Dealer Manager will not allow a Participating Dealer, or any such Participating Dealer’s registered representatives, to offer Offered Shares in any jurisdiction
unless both the Participating Dealer and such Participating Dealer’s registered representative (i) are duly licensed to transact securities business in such jurisdiction and (ii) have been advised in writing by the Company that the
Offered Shares are qualified or registered under the applicable laws of such jurisdiction or that such qualification or registration is not required in such jurisdiction and that the Offered Shares may be offered and sold in such jurisdiction.

 (b) The Dealer Manager will offer Offered Shares, and in its Participating Dealer Agreement with each Participating Dealer
will require that each Participating Dealer agree to offer Offered Shares, only to persons who satisfy the investor suitability standards and minimum investment requirements set forth in the Prospectus or in any suitability letter or memorandum sent
to the Dealer Manager and will only make offers to persons in the states in which it is advised in writing by the Company or the Dealer Manager that the Shares are qualified for sale or that such qualification or registration is not required. The
Dealer Manager agrees that in its Participating Dealer Agreement with each Participating Dealer the Dealer Manager will require that the Participating Dealers agree that in recommending the purchase, sale or exchange of Offered Shares to an
investor, the Dealer Manager, Participating Dealer, or any person associated with the Dealer Manager or any Participating Dealer that makes a recommendation, as applicable, shall have reasonable grounds to believe, on the basis of information
obtained from the investor (and thereafter maintained in the manner and for the period required by the SEC, any state securities commission, FINRA or the Company) concerning the investor’s age, investment objectives, other investments,
financial situation and needs, and any other information known to the Dealer Manager, such Participating Dealer or such person associated with the Dealer Manager, that (i) the investor is or will be in a financial position appropriate to enable
the investor to realize to a significant extent the benefits described in the Prospectus, including the tax benefits to the extent they are a significant aspect of the Company, (ii) the investor meets the minimum income, net worth and all of
the other requirements set forth in Article III.B, Article III.C and Article III.E.1 of the NASAA Guidelines and the Company’s limited liability company agreement, and (iii) the Participating Dealers will agree in their Participating
Dealer Agreements that an investment in Offered Shares is otherwise suitable for such investor. The Dealer Manager agrees that the Participating Dealers will agree to sell Class A, Class C and Class I Shares only to those persons who are
eligible to purchase such Shares, as described in the Prospectus. The Dealer Manager, or a person associated with the Dealer Manager, will make every reasonable effort to determine that the proposed purchase of Offered Shares is a suitable and
appropriate investment for such proposed investor solicited by a person associated with the Dealer Manager. In making the determinations as to financial qualifications and as to suitability required by the NASAA Guidelines, the Dealer Manager and
Participating Dealers may rely on (A) representations from investment advisers who are not affiliated with a Participating Dealer, banks acting as trustees or fiduciaries, and (B) information it has obtained from a prospective investor,
including such information as the investment objectives, other investments, financial situation and needs of the Person or any other information known by the Dealer Manager (or Participating Dealer, as applicable), after due inquiry.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Dealer Manager shall not, and each Participating Dealer shall agree not to, execute any transaction in the Company in a discretionary account without prior written approval of the transaction by the customer.


  
 18 









 4.7 Recordkeeping. The Dealer Manager agrees to comply, and to require each
Participating Dealer to comply, with the record keeping requirements of the Exchange Act, including but not limited to, Rules 17a-3 and 17a-4 promulgated under the Exchange Act. The Dealer Manager further agrees to keep, and to require each
Participating Dealer to keep, such records with respect to each customer who purchases Offered Shares, the customer’s suitability and the amount of Offered Shares sold, and to retain such records for six years or such period of time as may be
required by the SEC, any state securities commission, FINRA or the Company, whichever is later. The Company agrees that the Dealer Manager can satisfy its recordkeeping obligations hereunder by contractually requiring such information to be
maintained by the Participating Dealers, investment advisors or banks referred to above in Section 4.6. 
 4.8 Resale of
Offered Shares. The Dealer Manager agrees, and each Participating Dealer shall have agreed, to comply and shall comply with any applicable requirements with respect to its and each Participating Dealer’s participation in any resales or
transfers of the Offered Shares. In addition, the Dealer Manager agrees, and each Participating Dealer shall have agreed, that should it or they assist with the resale or transfer of the Offered Shares, it and each Participating Dealer will fully
comply with all applicable FINRA rules and any other applicable federal or state laws. 
 4.9 Distribution of
Prospectuses. The Dealer Manager is familiar with Rule 15c2-8 under the Exchange Act, relating to the distribution of preliminary and final Prospectuses, and confirms that it has complied and will comply therewith. 

4.10 Authorized Sales Materials. The Company will provide the Dealer Manager with certain Authorized Sales Materials to be used by
the Dealer Manager and the Participating Dealers in connection with the Offering. If the Dealer Manager elects to use such Authorized Sales Materials, then the Dealer Manager agrees that such material shall not be used by it in connection with the
Offering and that it will direct Participating Dealers not to make such use of any Authorized Sales Materials unless accompanied or preceded by the Prospectus. The Dealer Manager agrees that it will not use any sales literature or materials other
than Authorized Sales Materials provided by the Company. The Dealer Manager shall not, and in its Participating Dealer Agreement with each Participating Dealer will require that each Participating Dealer agree not to, give or provide any information
or make any representation other than those contained in the Prospectus or the Authorized Sales Materials. 
 4.11 Materials
for Broker-Dealer Use Only. The Dealer Manager will not, and each Participating Dealer will agree in the Participating Dealer Agreements not to, (i) show or give to any investor or prospective investor or reproduce any material or writing
that is marked “broker-dealer use only” or otherwise bearing a legend denoting that it is not to be used in connection with the sale of Shares to members of the public or (ii) show or give to any investor or prospective investor in a
particular jurisdiction any material or writing if such material bears a legend denoting that it is not to be used in connection with the sale of Shares to members of the public in such jurisdiction. 

4.12 Suspension or Termination of Offering. The Dealer Manager agrees, and will require that each of the Participating Dealers
agree, to suspend or terminate the offering and sale of the Offered Shares upon request of the Company at any time and to resume offering and sale of the Offered Shares upon the subsequent request of the Company. 

  
 19 









 4.13 Subscription Procedures. The Dealer Manager will comply in all material respects
with the subscription procedures and “Plan of Distribution” set forth in the Prospectus, and with respect to any direct sales made by the Dealer Manager, with the transmittal of funds procedures set forth in Section 7. 

4.14 Exclusivity. Neither the Dealer Manager, nor any of its affiliates, will serve as the dealer manager or otherwise participate
in a selling group distributing securities in the U.S. retail investor market for any fund, including a direct participation product, limited liability company, or partnership investing primarily in Renewable Energy Strategy (as defined in
Section 11.3(c) herein) and Renewable Energy Strategy related, investments during the period of time the Dealer Manager is distributing securities to the Company. The Dealer Manager may terminate this exclusivity in its sole discretion if the
Company, the Advisor or any of its affiliates commits fraud, bad acts, or otherwise materially breaches any material terms of this Dealer Manager Agreement.

but not limited to, the number and class of Shares sold by such Participating Dealer, the assistance of such Participating Dealer in marketing the Offering and due diligence expenses incurred, and the extent to which similar fees are reallowed to
participating broker-dealers in other direct participation offerings being conducted during the Offering Period. No Dealer Manager Fee shall be payable in respect of any DRIP Shares. 

(c) Distribution Fee. Subject to volume discounts and other special circumstances described in or otherwise
provided for in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus or this Section 6.1, the Company will pay to the Dealer Manager with respect to the Class C Shares only a distribution fee (the “Distribution Fee”), which
shall accrue daily in the amount equal to 1/365th of 0.80%
of the amount of the net asset value per share for the Class C Shares for such day, including Class C DRIP Shares, on a continuous basis from year to year. The Distribution Fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears. The Dealer Manager may re-allow
all or any portion of the Distribution Fee to the Participating Dealers who sold the Class C Shares giving rise to such fees, as described more fully in the Participating Dealer Agreement entered into with such Participating Dealer. The Dealer
Manager will cease receiving Distribution Fees with respect to Class C Shares sold in the Offering upon the earlier to occur of the following: (i) a listing of the Class C Shares on a national securities exchange; (ii) following the
completion of the Offering, total underwriting compensation in the Offering equaling 10% of the gross proceeds from the primary Offering, or (iii) there are no longer any Class C Shares outstanding, for example (without limitation), because of
their redemption or other repurchase by the Company, upon the dissolution of the Company, or upon a merger or other extraordinary 

  
 22 









 
transaction in which the Company is a party and in which the Shares, including the Class C Shares, are exchanged for cash or other securities. The Company will not pay the Dealer Manager a
Distribution Fee with respect to Class A Shares or Class I Shares. 
 (d) Sales to Affiliates. As described in the
Prospectus, the Dealer Manager may sell only Class A Shares to the Company’s executive officers and managers and their immediate family members as well as officers and persons associated with the Advisor and its members and their
affiliates and their immediate family members (including spouses, parents, grandparents, children and siblings) and any other individuals designated by the Company’s management, and, if approved by the Company’s board of managers, joint
venture partners, consultants and other service providers, at a discount. The purchase price for such Class A Shares will be $9.30 per Share, reflecting the fact that the selling commissions in the amount of $0.70 will be waived and not payable
in connection with such Class A Shares. 
 (e) Minimum Offering and Other Requirement. The Company will not pay any
amounts to the Dealer Manager under this Section 6.1 unless and until the Company has satisfied the Minimum Offering requirement and received the proceeds from such subscriptions from the Escrow Agent and provided that the total underwriting
compensation related to the Offering does not exceed 10% of the gross proceeds raised from the primary Offering. Following the satisfaction of the Minimum Offering requirement, all amounts payable to the Dealer Manager pursuant to this
Section 6.1 will be paid in full within thirty (30) days after the investor subscribing for the Offered Shares is admitted as a member of the Company; provided, however, the Distribution Fee shall be paid in accordance with
Section 6.1(c) hereof. 
 (f) Underwriting Compensation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
in no event shall the total aggregate underwriting compensation, reimbursement of expenses or any other amounts paid in connection with the Offering pursuant to this Section 6.1 or under Sections 5.1 and 5.2 hereof, whether paid by the Company,
the Dealer Manager or otherwise, including, but not limited to, selling commissions, the Dealer Manager Fee and the Distribution Fee, exceed ten percent (10.0%) of the gross proceeds from the sale of Primary Shares in the Offering as of the end
of the Offering. 
 6.2 Obligations to Participating Dealers. The Company will not be liable or responsible to any
Participating Dealer for direct payment of commissions, any reallowance of the Dealer Manager Fee or the Distribution Fee to such Participating Dealer or any payment or reimbursement of expenses to any Participating Dealer, it being the sole and
exclusive responsibility of the Dealer Manager for payment of commissions, any reallowance of the Dealer Manager Fee to Participating Dealers or any payment or reimbursement of expenses to any Participating Dealer. Notwithstanding the above, the
Company, in its sole discretion, may act as agent of the Dealer Manager by making direct payment of commissions or reallowance of the Dealer Manager Fee to such Participating Dealers without incurring any liability therefor. 

7. Submission of Orders. 

(a) Each person desiring to purchase Offered Shares in the Offering will be required to complete and execute a subscription agreement in
the form attached as an appendix to the Prospectus (the “Subscription Agreement”) and to deliver to the Dealer Manager or 

  
 23 









 
Participating Dealer, as the case may be (the “Processing Broker-Dealer”), such completed Subscription Agreement, together with a check in U.S. dollars or by wire transfer of
immediately available funds (hereinafter referred to as an “instrument of payment”) initially in the amount of $10.00 per Class A Share, $9.576 per Class C Share and $9.186 per Class I Share subscribed for, or such discounted purchase
price per Share that may apply based upon the available discounts specified in the Prospectus; provided that if the Company adjusts the price per Primary Shares and the price per DRIP Share, as described in the initial paragraph of this Agreement,
the purchase price of each class of Offered Shares will be adjusted accordingly. There shall be a minimum initial purchase by any one purchaser of $2,000 of Offered Shares (except as otherwise indicated in the Prospectus, or in any letter or
memorandum from the Company to the Dealer Manager). Minimum subsequent purchases of Offered Shares shall be $500 per transaction, except for purchases made pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan. Until such time as the Company
has satisfied the Minimum Offering and released the proceeds from such subscriptions from the Escrow Account (or such greater amount as may be applicable in respect of any greater escrow in respect of subscribers from any state), those persons who
purchase Offered Shares will be instructed by the Processing Broker-Dealer to make their checks payable to “UMB Bank N.A., as escrow agent for Greenbacker Renewable Energy Company LLC.” 

(b) The Processing Broker-Dealer receiving a Subscription Agreement and instrument of payment not conforming to the foregoing
instructions shall return such Subscription Agreement and instrument of payment directly to such subscriber not later than ten business days of receipt by the Processing Broker-Dealer of such materials. Subscription Agreements and instruments of
payment received by the Processing Broker-Dealer which conform to the foregoing instructions shall be transmitted pursuant to one of the following methods: 
 (i) where, pursuant to the internal supervisory procedures of the Processing Broker-Dealer, internal supervisory review is conducted at the same location at which Subscription Agreements and instruments
of payment are received from subscribers, then, by noon of the next business day following receipt by the Processing Broker-Dealer, the Processing Broker-Dealer will transmit the Subscription Agreements and instruments of payment to the Escrow Agent
or, after the Minimum Offering has been obtained, to the Company or to such other account or agent as directed by the Company; and 
 (ii) where, pursuant to the internal supervisory procedures of the Processing Broker-Dealer, final internal supervisory review is conducted at a different location (the “Final Review
Office”), Subscription Agreements and instruments of payment will be transmitted by the Processing Broker-Dealer to the Final Review Office by end of business of the next business day following receipt thereof by the Processing
Broker-Dealer. The Final Review Office will in turn by end of business of the next business day following receipt thereof by the Final Review Office, transmit such Subscription Agreements and instruments of payment to the Escrow Agent or, after the
Minimum Offering has been satisfied, to the Company or to such other account or agent as directed by the Company. 
 (c)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Offered Shares to be purchased by a custodial account, the Processing Broker-Dealer shall cause the custodian of such 

  
 24 









 
account to deliver a completed Subscription Agreement and instrument of payment for such account directly to the Escrow Agent or, after the Minimum Offering has been satisfied, to the Company or
its designated agent. The Processing Broker-Dealer shall furnish to the Escrow Agent or, after the Minimum Offering has been satisfied, to the Company or its designated agent with each delivery of instruments of payment a list of the subscribers
showing the name, address, tax identification number, state of residence, amount of Offered Shares subscribed for, and the amount of money paid. 
 (d) The Dealer Manager acknowledges and agrees that the Company reserves the unconditional right to reject any order for any reason. 
 8. Conditions of the Dealer Manager’s Obligations. The Dealer Manager’s obligations hereunder shall be subject to the continued accuracy throughout the term of this Agreement of the
representations, warranties and agreements of the Company, to the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder and to the following terms and conditions: 
 8.1 Effectiveness of Registration Statement. The Registration Statement shall have initially become effective on the Effective Date and, at any time during the term of this Agreement, no stop

original Effective Date and on or before the third business day following the filing of each post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement (each such date, a “Certificate Delivery Date”), a certificate executed by the chief
executive officer or president and the chief financial officer of the Company, dated as of the applicable date, certifying the following:  
 (a) the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement are true and correct with the same effect as if made on the Certificate Delivery Date and the Company has complied with
all covenants, agreements or obligations on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Certificate Delivery Date;

 (c) any request by the SEC for additional information (to be included in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or otherwise) has been complied with; 

(d) the Registration Statement (and any amendments or supplements thereto) does 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and the Prospectus (and any amendments or supplements

 8.4 General. The Dealer Manager’s obligations under this Agreement
are subject to the conditions specified in this Section 8, and to the extent that the Company does not timely perform and deliver to the Dealer Manager those obligations set forth in this Section 8, such failure shall be a material breach
of this Agreement of the purposes of Section 11 (Term and Termination). If all conditions specified in this Section 8 are not satisfied or waived by the Dealer Manager on or before the initial Effective Date or at any time thereafter until
the Termination Date (as defined in Section 11.1), then no funds shall be released (1) from the Escrow Account if the Dealer Manager provides notice to this effect to the Company and the Escrow Agent and (2) from the Deposit Account
if the Dealer Manager provides notice to this effect to the Company and the bank at which the Deposit Account is established. All certificates, letters and other documents referred to in this Agreement will be in compliance with the provisions
hereof only if they are reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Dealer Manager and the Dealer Manager’s counsel.
 9.
Indemnification. 
 9.1 Indemnified Parties Defined. For the purposes of this Section 9, an entity’s
“Indemnified Parties” shall include such entity’s officers, directors, employees, members, partners, affiliates, agents and representatives, and each person, if any, who controls such entity within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act. 
 9.2 Indemnification of the Dealer Manager
and Participating Dealers. The Company will indemnify, defend (subject to Section 9.6) and hold harmless the Dealer Manager and the Participating Dealers, and their respective Indemnified Parties, from and against any losses, claims,
expenses (including reasonable legal and other expenses incurred in investigating and defending such claims or liabilities), damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Participating Dealers or the Dealer Manager, or their respective
Indemnified Parties, may become subject, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (a) in whole or
in part, any material inaccuracy in a representation or warranty 

  
 26 









 
contained herein by the Company, any material breach of a covenant contained herein by the Company, or any material failure by the Company to perform its obligations hereunder or to comply with
state or federal securities laws applicable to the Offering, or (b) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained (i) in any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in the
Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or (ii) in any Authorized Sales Materials or (iii) in any blue sky application or other document executed by the Company or on its behalf specifically for the purpose of
qualifying any or all of the Offered Shares for sale under the securities laws of any jurisdiction or based upon written information furnished by the Company under the securities laws thereof (any such application, document or information being
hereinafter called a “Blue Sky Application”), or (c) the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof, or in the Prospectus or any
amendment or supplement to the Prospectus, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and the Company will reimburse each Participating Dealer or the Dealer Manager, and
their respective Indemnified Parties, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Participating Dealer or the Dealer Manager, and their respective Indemnified Parties, in connection with investigating or defending such loss, claim,
expense, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, expense, damage or liability arises out of, or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Dealer Manager in each case expressly for use in the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment
thereof, or the Prospectus or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification and agreement to hold harmless provided in this Section 9.2 is further limited to
the extent that no such indemnification by the Company of a Participating Dealer or the Dealer Manager, or their respective Indemnified Parties, shall be permitted under this Agreement for, or arising out of, an alleged violation of federal or state
securities laws, unless one or more of the following conditions are met: (a) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged securities law violations as to the particular indemnitee; (b) such claims
have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the particular indemnitee; or (c) a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against the particular indemnitee and finds that
indemnification of the settlement and the related costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position of the SEC and of the published position of any state securities regulatory authority
in which the securities were offered or sold as to indemnification for violations of securities laws. 
 9.3 Dealer Manager
Indemnification of the Company. The Dealer Manager will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, its Indemnified Parties and each person who has signed the Registration Statement, from and against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities to which any of the aforesaid parties may become subject, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims (including the reasonable cost of investigation), damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (a) in whole or in part, any material inaccuracy in a representation or warranty contained herein 

  
 27 









 
by the Dealer Manager, any material breach of a covenant contained herein by the Dealer Manager or any material failure by the Dealer Manager to perform its obligations hereunder or to comply
with state or federal securities laws applicable to the Offering, or (b) any untrue statement or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained (i) in any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or
in the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus, (ii) in any Authorized Sales Materials or (iii) any Blue Sky Application, or (c) the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in
the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof or in the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not
misleading, provided, however, that in each case described in clauses (b) and (c) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to the Company by the Dealer Manager specifically for use with reference to the Dealer Manager in the Registration Statement or any such post-effective amendments thereof or the Prospectus or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or
(d) any use of sales literature by the Dealer Manager that is not Authorized Sales Materials or any use of “broker-dealer use only” materials with members of the public concerning the Offered Shares by the Dealer Manager or any use of
Authorized Sales Materials by the Dealer Manager that are not accompanied or preceded by delivery of a Prospectus, or (e) any untrue statement made by the Dealer Manager or its authorized registered representatives or omission to state a fact
necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in connection with the offer and sale of the Offered Shares, in each case, other than statements or omissions made in conformity
with the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Authorized Sales Materials, or any other materials or information furnished by or on behalf of the Company. The Dealer Manager will reimburse the aforesaid parties for reasonable expenses incurred
in connection with investigation or defense of such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Dealer Manager may otherwise have. 

9.4 Participating Dealer Indemnification of the Company. By virtue of entering into the Participating Dealer Agreement, each
Participating Dealer severally will agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, the Dealer Manager, each of their respective Indemnified Parties, and each person who signs the Registration Statement, from and against any losses,
claims, expenses, damages or liabilities to which the Company, the Dealer Manager, or any of their respective Indemnified Parties, or any person who signed the Registration Statement, may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, as
more fully described in the Participating Dealer Agreement. 
 9.5 Action Against Parties; Notification. Promptly after
receipt by any indemnified party under this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 9, promptly
notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; provided, however, the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent it shall have been prejudiced by such failure.
In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, to the extent it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly notified, to participate in the defense thereof, with 

  
 28 









 
separate counsel. Such participation shall not relieve such indemnifying party of the obligation to reimburse the indemnified party for reasonable legal and other expenses (subject to
Section 9.6) incurred by such indemnified party in defending itself, except for such expenses incurred after the indemnifying party has deposited funds sufficient to effect the settlement, with prejudice, of and unconditional release of all
liability from, the claim in respect of which indemnity is sought. Any such indemnifying party shall not be liable to any such indemnified party on account of any settlement of any claim or action effected without the consent of such indemnifying
party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 
 9.6 Reimbursement of Fees and Expenses. An
indemnifying party under Section 9 of this Agreement shall be obligated to reimburse an indemnified party for reasonable legal and other expenses as follows: 
 (a) In the case of the Company indemnifying the Dealer Manager, the advancement of Company funds to the Dealer Manager for legal expenses and other costs incurred as a result of any legal action for which
indemnification is being sought shall be permissible only if all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the legal action relates to acts or omissions with respect to the performance of duties or services on behalf of the Company;
(ii) the legal action is initiated by a third party who is not a member of the Company or the legal action is initiated by a member of the Company acting in his or her capacity as such and a court of competent jurisdiction specifically approves
such advancement; and (iii) the Dealer Manager undertakes to repay the advanced funds to the Company, together with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon, in cases in which the Dealer Manager is found not to be entitled to
indemnification. 
 (b) In any case of indemnification other than that described in Section 9.6(a) above, the indemnifying
party shall pay all legal fees and expenses reasonably incurred by the indemnified party in the defense of such claims or actions; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be obligated to pay legal expenses and fees to more than one
law firm in connection with the defense of similar claims arising out of the same alleged acts or omissions giving rise to such claims notwithstanding that such actions or claims are alleged or brought by one or more parties against more than one
indemnified party. If such claims or actions are alleged or brought against more than one indemnified party, then the indemnifying party shall only be obliged to reimburse the expenses and fees of the one law firm (in addition to local counsel) that
has been participating by a majority of the indemnified parties against which such action is finally brought; and in the event a majority of such indemnified parties is unable to agree on which law firm for which expenses or fees will be
reimbursable by the indemnifying party, then payment shall be made to the first law firm of record representing an indemnified party against the action or claim. Such law firm shall be paid only to the extent of services performed by such law firm
and no reimbursement shall be payable to such law firm on account of legal services performed by another law firm. 
 10. Contribution.

 (a) If the indemnification provided for in Section 9 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold
harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall 

  
 29 









 
contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, the Dealer Manager and the Participating Dealer, respectively, from the proceeds of the offering of the Offered Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the relevant Participating Dealer Agreement
or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the
Company, the Dealer Manager and the Participating Dealer, respectively, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

 (b) The relative benefits received by the Company, the Dealer Manager and the Participating Dealer, respectively, in
connection with the proceeds of the offering of the Offered Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the relevant Participating Dealer Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the
Offered Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the relevant Participating Dealer Agreement (before deducting expenses), received by the Company, and the total selling commissions, Dealer Manager Fee and Distribution Fees received by the Dealer
Manager and the Participating Dealer, as applicable, in each case as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus bear to the aggregate initial public offering price of the Offered Shares as set forth on such cover. 

(c) The relative fault of the Company, the Dealer Manager and the Participating Dealer, respectively, shall be determined by reference
to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact related to information supplied by the Company, or by the Dealer Manager or by the Participating
Dealer, respectively, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 
 (d) The Company, the Dealer Manager and the Participating Dealer (by virtue of entering into the Participating Dealer Agreement) agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to
this Section 10 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable contributions referred to above in this Section 10. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities,
claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 10 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending
against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 

(e) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10, the Dealer Manager and the Participating Dealer shall not be required to
contribute any amount by which the total price at which the Primary Shares sold to the public by them exceeds the amount of any damages which the Dealer Manager and the Participating Dealer have otherwise been required to pay by reason of any untrue
or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 

  
 30 









 (f) No party guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any party who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 
 (g) For the purposes of this Section 10, the Dealer Manager’s officers, directors, employees, members, partners, agents and representatives, and each person, if any, who controls the Dealer
Manager within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution of the Dealer Manager, and each of the officers, directors, employees, members, partners, agents
and representatives of the Company, respectively, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of
the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution of the Company, respectively. The Participating Dealers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 10 are several in proportion to the number of Primary Shares
sold by each Participating Dealer and not joint. 
 11. Term and Termination. 

11.1 Term; Termination. This Agreement shall commence as of the date first written above. Unless sooner terminated pursuant
