1.3 [Reserved]. 1.4 The Seller Trusts and GWG intend to retain one or more nationally recognized bulge bracket investment banks (the Bank) for the orderly marketing and resale of Shares pursuant to a separate engagement letter (the Engagement Letter) to advise them in connection with the sale of the Tranches (together, the Offerings). Such Engagement Letter shall include customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification provisions. The services to be performed by the Bank shall be set forth in such Engagement Letter and are expected to include, among others: (a) assisting in the drafting and preparation of one or more prospectus supplements describing GWG, the Shares and the terms of the Offerings; (b) advising the Seller Trusts on a marketing and distribution strategy for each Tranche of Shares, including whether a particular Tranche should be sold through a block trade, overnight bookbuild, or similar transaction; (c) assisting GWG in preparing marketing materials and conducting one or more roadshows and meetings with potential purchasers of the Shares; (d) advising the Seller Trusts as to the timing, structure and pricing of the Offerings; (e) providing other advisory services as are customary for similar transactions.

Section 2. Compensation. The Engagement Letter shall provide that the Bank shall not be entitled to any compensation for its advice hereunder or reimbursement of its expenses in connection with this OMA and shall only be entitled to compensation in connection with an Offering as provided in the Engagement Letter and related Distribution Agreement with respect to such Offering.
