Now, Therefore, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

Investment Applicant Services (see Schedule B for associated fees)

“Payment Rails” for the use of providing investors with the ability to invest in the offering using credit cards and/or ACH.

The Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will remain in effect for a period of twelve (12) months and will renew automatically for successive renewal terms of twelve (12) months each unless any party provides notice to the other party of non-renewal at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the current term. If Client defaults in performing the obligations under this Agreement, the Agreement may be terminated (i) upon sixty (60) days written notice if Client fails to perform or observe any material term, covenant or condition to be performed or observed by it under this Agreement and such failure continues to be unremedied, (ii) upon written notice, if any material representation or warranty made by either Provider or Client proves to be incorrect at any time in any material respect, (iii) in order to comply with a Legal Requirement, if compliance cannot be timely achieved using commercially reasonable efforts, after providing as much notice as practicable, or (iv) upon thirty (30) days’ written notice if Client or Rialto commences a voluntary proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief, or is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or has entered against it a final and unappealable order for relief, under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or either party executes and delivers a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors. The description in this section of specific remedies will not exclude the availability of any other remedies. Any delay or failure by Client to exercise any right, power, remedy or privilege will not be construed to be a waiver of such right, power, remedy or privilege or to limit the exercise of such right, power, remedy or privilege. No single, partial or other exercise of any such right, power, remedy or privilege will preclude the further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. All terms of the Agreement, which should reasonably survive termination, shall so survive, including, without limitation, limitations of liability and indemnities, and the obligation to pay Fees relating to Services provided prior to termination.

November 2021

Fees for early termination of the offering by the Client post the issuance of the FINRA No Objection Letter will be the greater of $30,000 or the percentage owed to Rialto as agreed to within this agreement. As Rialto does not charge any fees up front, this early termination fee is to cover costs associated with the services and work performed by Rialto up to the point of early termination and any regulatory type requirements after.

The Client has a right of “termination for cause” which includes the material failure of Rialto Markets to provide the services outlined in this agreement. A Client’s exercise of its right of “termination for cause” eliminates any obligations with respect to the payment of any termination fee or provision of any right of first refusal. The Client shall not be responsible for paying the termination fee unless an offering or other type of transaction (as set forth in this agreement) is consummated within two years of the date of the engagement is terminated by the Client.

2. Services. Rialto will perform the services listed above in section 1, in connection with the Offering (the “Services”). Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties.

3. Compensation. As compensation for the Services, Client shall pay to Rialto fees equal to 2% for Broker of Record services listed as a-i in section 1 above on the aggregate amount raised by the Client. This will only start after FINRA Corporate Finance issues a No Objection Letter for the offering. Client authorizes Rialto to deduct the fee directly from the Client’s third-party escrow or payment account. At 2%, the Maximum compensation is $500,000.

As compensation for Investor Outreach Services, where Rialto will introduce the offering to its network of Institutional and Accredited types of investors, Client will pay Rialto 8% of the successful amount raised only through Rialto’s direct introductions/ and introductory efforts. Although the offering is for $25,000,000, Rialto does not estimate raising more than $5,000,000 of the $25M through Investor Outreach, so is setting a maximum commission of $400,000.

There are no expected out of pocket due diligence expenses.

Including the FINRA Filing Fee (5110) explained in Section 4 below, the Maximum Expenses are $4,250 for FINRA and the Maximum Compensation is $900,000 ($500,000 for 2% of Success and $400,000 for 8% of Investor Outreach).

4. Regulatory Compliance

Client and all its third-party providers shall at all times (i) comply with direct requests of Rialto; (ii) maintain all required registrations and licenses, including foreign qualification, if necessary; and (iii) pay all related fees and expenses (including the FINRA Corporate Filing Fee), in each case that are necessary or appropriate to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement. Client shall comply with and adhere to all Rialto policies and procedures.

November 2021

FINRA Corporate Filing Fee for this $25,000,000 best-efforts offering is $4,250 and will be a pass-through fee payable to Rialto, from the Client, who will then forward it to FINRA as payment for the filing. This fee is due and payable prior to any submission by Rialto to FINRA. The FINRA Fee is .00015 of total offering amount + $500.

Client and Rialto will have the shared responsibility for the review of all documentation related to the Transaction but the ultimate discretion about accepting a client will be the sole decision of the Client. Each Investor will be considered to be that of the Client’s and NOT Rialto.

Client and Rialto will each be responsible for supervising the activities and training of their respective sales employees, as well as all of their other respective employees in the performance of functions specifically allocated to them pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Client and Rialto agree to promptly notify the other concerning any material communications from or with any Governmental Authority or Self-Regulatory Organization with respect to this Agreement or the performance of its obligations, unless such notification is expressly prohibited by the applicable Governmental Authority.

5. Role of Rialto. Client acknowledges and agrees that Client will rely on Client’s own judgment in using Rialto’ Services. Rialto (i) makes no representations with respect to the quality of any investment opportunity or of any issuer; (ii) does not guarantee the performance to and of any Investor; (iii) will make commercially reasonable efforts to perform the Services in accordance with its specifications; (iv) does not guarantee the performance of any party or facility which provides connectivity to Rialto; and (v) is not an investment adviser, does not provide investment advice and does not recommend securities transactions and any display of data or other information about an investment opportunity, does not constitute a recommendation as to the appropriateness, suitability, legality, validity or profitability of any transaction. Nothing in this Agreement should be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, or employer-employee relationship of any kind.

With respect to the use of Merchant Services as provided by First Data via agreements reached between Rialto and First Data, the Company will be responsible for all charges
