the ultimate parent company of SQN Capital Management, LLC, in 2006 and has since served as its President and Chief Executive Officer.
SQN Capital Corporation provides asset-backed and lease-based financing for business-essential, revenue-producing or cost-saving-assets
through its subsidiaries and their managed funds by way of direct investments, project financings, and structured notes. Mr. Silkowski
has served as Managing Director of SQN Capital Management, LLC since December 2007 and President and Chief Executive Officer since
April 2010 and has served as President and Chief Executive Officer of SQN AIF III GP, LLC since March 2010. Prior to forming SQN

in SQN Capital Corporation. SQN Capital Management, LLC owns SQN AIF III GP, LLC. SQN Capital Management, LLC and SQN AIF III GP,
LLC are entitled to certain management fees and participation interests, respectively, from the Company, as disclosed in the Company's
post-effective amendment no. 2 to its registration statement on Form S-1 (Reg. No. 333-166195) as filed with the Securities and
