Related to Sale of Offered Units

• Sale of Units On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, you agree to sell the Units on a “best efforts” basis, as agent for the Fund. You are authorized to enlist other members of FINRA (“Soliciting Dealers”), acceptable to the Fund, to sell the Units. As compensation for these services, the Fund agrees that it will pay you a selling commission in an amount equal to 9% of the offering price of the Units sold pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, from which you may reallow a dealer commission of up to 7.5% of such offering price. In addition to such selling commissions, the Fund or the Manager will pay or reimburse to you or participating broker dealers an amount up to 1% of the Gross Proceeds as additional selling compensation in the form of underwriters’ expenses borne by the Fund, the Manager or their affiliates, as described in the following paragraph. You will pay wholesaling compensation to your personnel out of the selling commissions you will receive hereunder. Aggregate selling compensation paid in connection with the offering, will not exceed a total equal to 10% of the Gross Proceeds. It is understood that the Fund may pay or reimburse you and participating dealers a portion of their “underwriters’ expenses” incurred in connection with the offering, and the Fund, the Manager or their Affiliates may bear certain other expenses directly that may be deemed “underwriters’ expenses.” These underwriters’ expenses include amounts paid by the Fund, the Manager or its Affiliates to you and participating broker dealers relating to sales seminar costs and expenses; advertising and promotion expenses; travel, food and lodging costs; telephone expenses; and an allocable portion of any of your salary expenses and legal fees borne by the Manager or its Affiliates. All of such amounts paid to you or participating broker dealers, all underwriters’ expenses borne on behalf of you or any participating broker dealer by the Fund or any other party on its behalf, and all selling commissions are together deemed “underwriting compensation” paid in connection with the offering. The total of all underwriting compensation, including sales commissions, wholesaling salaries and commissions, retail and wholesaling expense reimbursements, seminar expenses and any other underwriters’ expenses or other forms of compensation paid to or for you or participating broker-dealers, will not exceed 10% of the Gross Proceeds. In addition to such selling compensation, the Fund may reimburse the Soliciting Dealers for their bona fide and accountable expenses for due diligence purposes; provided, however, that any such payment or reimbursement will be made only upon presentation of detailed, itemized invoices for such bona fide due diligence expenses. Bona fide due diligence expenses will include actual costs incurred by broker-dealers to review the business, financial statements, transactions, and investments of ATEL and its prior programs to determine the accuracy and completeness of information provided in the Prospectus, the suitability of the investment for their clients and the integrity and management expertise of ATEL and its personnel. Costs may include telephone, postage and similar communication costs incurred in communicating with ATEL personnel, and ATEL’s outside accountants and counsel in this pursuit; travel and lodging costs incurred in visiting the ATEL offices, reviewing ATEL’s books and records and interviewing key ATEL personnel; the cost of outside counsel, accountants and other due diligence investigation specialists engaged by the broker-dealer; and the internal costs of time and materials expended by broker-dealer personnel in this due diligence effort. ATEL will require full itemized documentation of any claimed due diligence expenditure and will determine whether the expenditure can be fairly allocated to bona fide due diligence investigation before permitting reimbursement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, it is understood and agreed that the Manager has reserved the right to accept or reject any subscriptions for Units as set forth in the Prospectus and no selling commission will be payable to you or any of the Soliciting Dealers with respect to the tender of any Subscription Agreement which is rejected by you or the Manager as aforesaid. Furthermore, no subscription will be deemed binding until at least five days following delivery of a Prospectus. The Fund further agrees that it will pay the foregoing selling commission with respect to the purchase price of each of the Units upon the Manager’s acceptance of the order for such Units; provided, however, that none of such commissions will be payable or paid until release to the Fund from the escrow account in which they are to be deposited of proceeds from subscriptions for a minimum of 120,000 Units. It is understood and agreed that you may, in your discretion, permit you, the Manager, a Soliciting Dealer or any Affiliate or employee of any of the foregoing or certain clients of registered investment advisors to purchase Units net of the 7.5% retail selling commissions at a per Unit price of $9.25, as more specifically described in the Prospectus under “Plan of Distribution—Investments by Certain Persons.” Any such sale of Units net of retail commissions to you, the Manager, a Soliciting Dealer or any Affiliate or employee of such person will only be made if and to the extent that any Soliciting Dealer which would otherwise be entitled to a selling commission on any such transaction agrees to such rebate.
