As consideration for the advisory services provided in connection with the Offering, the Company has also paid an aggregate advisory commission equal to $144,525.49 and has issued an aggregate of 218,978 advisory options (the "Advisory Options").

If the Qualification Date occurs prior to the Agents exercising its Compensation Options or Advisory Options, each Compensation Option and Advisory Option shall be exercisable to acquire one (1) Unit (or, if applicable, one-and-one-tenth (1.10) Units if a receipt for the Final Prospectus is not received one-hundred twenty (120) days following the Closing Date, and an additional 0.02 of a Unit for each additional thirty (30) days thereafter prior to the Qualification Date).
