IMPORTANT NOTICE

PRIOR TO INVESTING IN THE FUND ALL SUBSCRIBERS MUST CAREFULLY READ THE FUND’S PRIVATE PLACEMENT MEMORANDUM AND THE FUND’S AGREEMENT AND DECLARATION OF TRUST ATTACHED THERETO. AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUND INVOLVES RISKS AND CONFLICTS AS DESCRIBED IN THE FUND’S PRIVATE PLACEMENT MEMORANDUM. SHARES IN THE FUND ARE ONLY APPROPRIATE FOR THOSE INVESTORS WHO CAN TOLERATE A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK AND DO NOT REQUIRE A LIQUID INVESTMENT. NO SHAREHOLDER WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO TRANSFER ITS SHARES WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF THE FUND AND NO SHAREHOLDER WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE FUND TO REPURCHASE SHARES. ACCORDINGLY, YOU SHOULD CONSIDER THAT YOU MAY NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THE FUNDS YOU INVEST IN THE FUND FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME.

Acknowledgment

A I agree to become a shareholder of the Fund and in connection therewith subscribe for and agree to purchase Shares of the Fund on the terms provided for in (i) this Subscription Booklet, (ii) the Fund’s Private Placement Memorandum and Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”), (iii) the Fund’s Agreement Declaration of Trust and (iv) the Fund’s Privacy Notice (together with the Subscription Booklet, Private Placement Memorandum and SAI, the “Fund Documents”), and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Fund Documents. I certify that I have the authority and legal capacity to make this purchase and that I am of legal age in my state of residence.

B I authorize the Fund and its agents to act upon instructions (by phone, in writing or other means) believed to be genuine and in accordance with the procedures described in the Fund Documents for this account. I agree that neither the Fund nor the transfer agent will be liable for any loss, cost or expense for acting on such instructions.

C I am aware that an investment in the Fund involves substantial risks and have determined that a subscription is a suitable investment for me and that, at this time, I can bear a complete loss of my entire investment therein.

D I understand that under the Fund Documents, shareholders cannot withdraw from the Fund and Shares cannot be transferred, except as provided in the Fund Documents. I understand that liquidity is generally only available through periodic tender offers by the Fund, that the Fund is under no legal obligation to conduct any such tender offers, and that any repurchases of Shares will be made at such times and on such terms as may be determined by the Board of Trustees, of the Fund from time-to-time in its sole discretion. Consequently, I acknowledge that I am aware that I may have to bear the economic risk of investment in the Fund indefinitely and that Shares are speculative and illiquid securities involving substantial risk of loss.

E I understand that the Fund Documents are not an offer to sell Shares and are not soliciting an offer to buy Shares in any state or jurisdiction where such offer or sale is not permitted.

F I will acquire Shares of the Fund for my own account for investment purposes only, and not with a view to or for the re-sale, distribution or fractionalization thereof, in whole or in part. I agree not to offer, sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, all or any number of the Shares or any interest therein, except in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Fund Documents and applicable law (including without limitation, the registration requirements of the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and any other applicable securities laws).

G I certify that I am not a Foreign Financial Institution as defined in the U.S.A. Patriot Act.
