CERTIFICATIONS

I
understand that investment in the securities is an illiquid investment. In particular, I
recognize that I must bear the economic risk of investment in the
securities for an indefinite period of time since the securities
have not been registered under the Act and therefore cannot be sold
unless either they are subsequently registered under the Act or an
exemption from such registration is available and a favorable
opinion of counsel for the Company to that effect is obtained if
requested by the Company. I consent to the affixing by the Company
of such legends on certificates representing the securities as any
applicable federal or state securities law may require from time to
time.
I
represent and warrant to the Company that: (i) all information
provided in this Agreement is complete, true and correct; (ii) I
and my investment managers, if any, have carefully reviewed the
Private Placement Memorandum, including its attachments,
(the “Memorandum”),
and understand the risks of, and other considerations relating to,
a purchase of these securities, including, but not limited to, the
risks set forth under “Risk Factors” in the Memorandum;
(iii) I and my investment managers, if any, have been afforded the
opportunity to obtain all information necessary to verify the
accuracy of any representations or information set forth in the
Memorandum and have had all inquiries to the Company answered, and
have been furnished all requested materials relating to the Company
and the offering and sale of the securities and anything set forth
in the Memorandum; (iv) I have such knowledge and experience in
financial and investment matters, either alone or with my
investment managers, that I am capable of evaluating the merits
and risks of this
investment; (v) neither I nor my investment managers, if any, have
been furnished any offering literature by the Company or any of its
affiliates, associates or agents other than the Memorandum, and the
documents referenced therein; and (vi) I am acquiring the
securities for which I am subscribing for my own account, as
principal, for investment and not with a view to the resale or
distribution of all or any part of the securities.

advice that it has deemed necessary; (iii) has its
principal place of business

duly authorized to execute all such documents on behalf of the
entity. (If the undersigned is one of the aforementioned entities,
it agrees to supply any additional written information that may be

direct or indirect interest in the securities subscribed for by
this Agreement.
I agree

directors, employees, affiliates, and agents as well as the
brokerage firm through which I am subscribing (if any) and all of
its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, and agents from and

costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees)

fulfill any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement. This
subscription is not transferable or assignable by me without the
written consent of the Company. If more than one person is

and several, and the representations and warranties contained in
this Agreement shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon,
each of these persons and his or her heirs, executors,
administrators, successors, and assigns. This subscription, upon
acceptance by the Company, shall be binding upon my heirs,
executors, administrators, successors, and assigns.

personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such
suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or

hereby irrevocably waive personal service of process and consent to

contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to
serve process in any manner permitted by law. I HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT I MAY
HAVE, AND AGREE NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION
OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF
THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED
HEREBY.

number shown in this Agreement is correct; and (ii) I am not
subject to backup withholding because: (a) I have not been notified
that I am subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to
