Dear Sir or Madam:
Reference is made to (i) the Summary of Terms, including all supplements thereto, if any
(the "Summary"), of Neoteny 4, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "Partnership"); (ii) the
Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership (the "Partnership
Agreement"), by and among Neoteny 4 GP, LW, a Delaware limited liability company, as the
sole general partner of the Partnership (the "General Partner"), and the Limited Partners named
on the List of Partners maintained by the Partnership, in each case, as furnished to the
undersigned with respect to the offering of a limited partner interest in the Partnership (the
"Interest") to the undersigned; and (iii) this Limited Partner Subscription Agreement (this
"Agreement"), by and between the General Partner, as general partner of the Partnership, and
the undersigned. The Summary, the Partnership Agreement and this Agreement are collectively
referred to herein as the "Offering Materials." Capitalized terms used, but not defined, herein
shall have the respective meanings given to them in the Partnership Agreement.
The undersigned subscribing investor (the "Investor") hereby subscribes and agrees as
follows:
I. Subscription for a Limited Partner Interest. Subject to the terms and conditions
set forth in this Agreement and in the Partnership Agreement, the Investor agrees (i) to purchase
from the Partnership an Interest in the amount set forth on the signature page below (except to
the extent that an Interest in a lesser amount has been accepted by the General Partner pursuant
to Section 9) at a purchase price equal to 100% of such Interest, payable in the manner and at the
times as set forth in the Partnership Agreement, (ii) to become a party to and be bound by the
Partnership Agreement and (iii) to become a Limited Partner of the Partnership.
2. Representations and Warranties of the Investor. The Investor hereby represents
and warrants to, and agrees with, the Partnership and the General Partner as follows:
(a) Suitability. THE INVESTOR HAS READ CAREFULLY AND
UNDERSTANDS THE OFFERING MATERIALS AND HAS CONSULTED ITS OWN
ATTORNEY, ACCOUNTANT, TAX ADVISER AND/OR INVESTMENT ADVISER WITH
RESPECT TO THE INVESTMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND ITS SUITABILITY
FOR THE INVESTOR. ANY SPECIFIC ACKNOWLEDGMENT SET FORTH BELOW
WITH RESPECT TO ANY STATEMENT CONTAINED IN THE OFFERING MATERIALS
EFTA00806037
CONFIDENTIAL
SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO LIMIT THE GENERALITY OF THIS REPRESENTATION
AND WARRANTY.
(b) Opportunity to Verify Information. The Investor acknowledges that
representatives of the Partnership have made available to the Investor, during the course of this
transaction and prior to the purchase of the Interest, the opportunity to ask questions of and
receive answers from them concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Interests
described in the Offering Materials, and to obtain any additional information necessary to verify
the information contained in the Offering Materials or otherwise relative to the proposed
activities of the Partnership or to otherwise evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the
Partnership.
(c) Purchase for Investment. The Investor understands and agrees: (i) that the
Investor must bear the economic risk of its investment until the termination of the Partnership;
(ii) that the Interest has not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act") or under the applicable securities laws of any other jurisdiction,
and, therefore, cannot be resold or otherwise disposed of unless it is subsequently registered
under the Securities Act or such other applicable securities laws, unless an exemption from such
registration is available; (iii) that the Partnership is not being registered as an "investment
company" as the term "investment company" is defined in Section 3(a) of the United States
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"); (iv) that the
Investor is purchasing the Interest for its own account and without a view towards distribution
thereof; (v) that the Investor shall not resell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Interest
purchased by the Investor, except as permitted by law, including without limitation, any
regulations under the Securities Act or other applicable securities laws, and any and all
applicable provisions of the Partnership Agreement; (vi) that the transfer of the Interest by the
Investor and the admission and substitution of another Limited Partner for the Investor are
restricted by the terms of the Partnership Agreement and the Securities Act; (vii) that the General
Partner does not have any intention of registering the Partnership as an "investment company"
under the Investment Company Act or of registering the Interest under the Securities Act or of
supplying the information that may be necessary to enable the Investor to sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of the Interest; and (viii) that Rule 144 under the Securities Act is unlikely to
be available as a basis for exemption from registration of the Interest in connection with the sale,
transfer or other disposition of all or a portion of the Interest. The Investor understands that there
is no public or other market for the Interest, and it is not anticipated that such a market will ever
develop. The Investor further understands that for the foregoing reasons, the Investor will be
required to retain ownership of the Interest and bear the economic risk of this investment for an
indefinite period of time. The Investor is aware and acknowledges that: (i) the Partnership has
no financial or operating history; (ii) the General Partner and Neoteny Management, LLC (which
is an Affiliate of the General Partner) will receive substantial compensation in connection with
the management of the Partnership; and (iii) the Investor is not entitled to cancel, terminate or
revoke its subscription in the Partnership nor any of the powers and authority conferred herein
and in the Partnership Agreement to the Partnership and/or the General Partner. The Investor
acknowledges that the Investor has read, and understands and agrees to, the risk factors
contained in the Summary.
(d) Full Contribution. The Investor understands that, except as otherwise
provided in the Partnership Agreement, the Investor may not make less than the full amount of
2
EFTA00806038
CONFIDENTIAL
any required capital contribution in respect of such Investor's Interest, and that default provisions
with respect thereto, pursuant to which the Investor may suffer substantial adverse consequences
(including, but not limited to, the loss of all or a material portion of its investment in the
Partnership), are contained in the Partnership Agreement.
(e) Exhibits. The Investor has carefully reviewed Exhibits A through F
attached hereto and completed Exhibits A through D. The Investor makes each of the
representations set forth in Exhibits A through D and such representations are true and correct in
all respects.
(f) No Need for Liquidity. The Investor has no need for liquidity in
connection with its purchase of the Interest, and is able to bear the risk of loss of its entire
investment in the Interest. The Investor understands that its investment in the Interest may result
in the complete loss of such investment.
(g) Investment Objectives and Advice. The purchase of the Interest by the
Investor is consistent with the general investment objectives of the Investor. The Investor hereby
acknowledges that it has not relied on the General Partner or any of its partners or Affiliates for
investment advice with respect to an investment in the Partnership.
(h) Securities Laws. The Investor understands that the offer and sale of the
Interest in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law. The Investor further understands that
neither this Agreement nor any of the other Offering Materials constitute an offer to sell or the
solicitation of an offer to buy an Interest in a state or other jurisdiction to any Person to whom it
is unlawful to make such offer or solicitation in such state or jurisdiction. The Investor received
the Offering Materials and first learned of the Partnership in the country, territory, state or other
jurisdiction identified in the address of the Investor set forth on the Investor's signature page
hereto, and intends that the securities laws of that country, territory, state or other jurisdiction
alone shall govern the offer and sale of the Interest to the Investor. If the Investor is not a
resident of the United States, the Investor understands that it is the responsibility of the Investor
to satisfy himself or itself as to full observance of the laws of any relevant country, territory,
state or jurisdiction outside of the United States in connection with the offer, purchase and sale
of the Interest, including obtaining any required governmental or other consent and observing
any other applicable legal, regulatory or other similar formalities. This offering does not
constitute an offer of the Interest to the public and no action has been or will be taken to permit a
public offering in any jurisdiction where action would be required for that purpose. The Investor
understands that no governmental agency or authority has passed upon or will pass upon the
offer or sale of the Interest or has made or will make any finding or determination as to the
fairness of this investment. The Investor: (i) if an individual, represents on his or her behalf; or
(ii) if a corporation, trust, partnership, limited liability company, entity or other organization or
association, represents on its behalf and the behalf of its officers, directors, managers, general
partners and principal stockholders or equityholders, connected with the Investor as of the date
hereof, that it is not subject to any "bad actor" disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to
(viii) under the Securities Act (a "Disqualifying Event"), except for a Disqualifying Event
covered by Rule 506(d)(2) or (d)(3) under the Securities Act.
(i) Investment Company Act Representations. Except as otherwise disclosed
to the Partnership in writing on or before the date hereof (which writing shall be acknowledged
3
EFTA00806039
CONFIDENTIAL
by the General Partner and shall constitute a representation of the Investor hereunder), if the
Investor is a corporation, trust, partnership, limited liability company, entity or other
organization or association:
(1) The Investor was not, or will not be, formed or "recapitalized" (as
defined below in this Section 2(i)) for the specific purpose of
acquiring the Interest;
(2) The Investor's stockholders, partners or other beneficial owners
have no individual discretion as to their participation or non-
participation in the purchase of the Interest and will have no
individual discretion as to their participation or non-participation in
particular investments made by the Partnership;
(3) The Investor has not and will not invest more than 40% of its
"committed capital" (as defined below in this Section 2(i)) in any
single entity, including the Partnership);
(4) If the Investor is contributing 10% or more of the total capital to be
contributed by the Limited Partners to the Partnership, either (i) all
of the outstanding securities (other than short-term paper) of such
Investor are beneficially owned by one natural person, or (ii) such
investor is not an "investment company" under Section 3(a) of the
Investment Company Act or an entity which would be an
"investment company" but for the exception provided for in
Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act;
(5) The Investor's ownership of the Interest will constitute beneficial
ownership by "one person" for purposes of determining the
number of persons who beneficially own securities of the
Partnership for purposes of Section 3(c)(1) of the Investment
Company Act; and
(6) The Investor has not been formed or used to circumvent the
provisions of Section 12(g) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and the Interest
held by the Investor will be held of record by one person within the
meaning of the Exchange Act Rule 12g5-1.
For purposes of this Section 2(i), the following definitions shall apply: "committed
capital" includes all amounts which have been contributed to the Investor by its shareholders,
partners or other equity holders plus all amounts which such persons remain obligated to
contribute to it; and the term "recapitalized" shall include new investments made in the Investor
solely for the purpose of financing its acquisition of the Interest and not made pursuant to a prior
financial commitment.
(j) Power and Authority; No Conflicts. If the Investor is a corporation, trust,
partnership, limited liability company or other entity, organization or association: (i) it has the
4
EFTA00806040
CONFIDENTIAL
requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Partnership
Agreement; (ii) the person signing this Agreement on behalf of the Investor has been duly
authorized to execute this Agreement and the Partnership Agreement; and (iii) such execution,
delivery and performance by the Investor of such agreements do not violate, or conflict with, the
terms of any agreement or instrument to which the Investor is a party or by which it is bound. If
the Investor is an individual, the Investor has all requisite legal capacity to acquire and hold the
Interest and to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Partnership Agreement and to perform
its obligations hereunder and thereunder. This Agreement has been duly executed by the
Investor and constitutes, and the Partnership Agreement, when the Investor is admitted as a
Limited Partner, will constitute, valid and legally binding agreements of the Investor enforceable
against the Investor in accordance with their respective terms. The Investor has obtained all
necessary consents, approvals and authorizations of government authorities and other persons or
entities required to be obtained in connection with its execution and delivery of this Agreement
and the Partnership Agreement and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder.
(k) Knowledge and Experience. The Investor and its purchaser representative
(if any) currently have, and (unless the Investor has a purchaser representative) the Investor had
immediately prior to receipt of any offer regarding the Partnership, such knowledge and
experience in financial and business matters as to be able to evaluate the merits and risks of an
investment in the Partnership.
(1) Purchaser Representative. If the Investor has utilized a purchaser
representative, the Investor has previously given the Partnership notice in writing of such fact
(which shall be acknowledged by the General Partner in writing), specifying that such
representative would be acting as the Investor's "purchaser representative" as defined in
Rule 501(h) of Regulation D under the Securities Act ("Regulation D").
(m) No View to Tax Benefits. The Investor is not acquiring the Interest with a
view to realizing any benefits under any tax law, including, but not limited to, United States
federal income tax laws, and no representations have been made to the Investor that any such
benefits will be available as a result of the Investor's acquisition, ownership or disposition of the
Interest.
(n) Publicly Traded Partnership. The following representations are included
with the intention of enabling the Partnership to qualify for the benefit of a "safe harbor" under
U.S. Treasury Regulations from treatment of the Partnership as an entity subject to corporate
income tax. The Investor either:
(1) is nor a partnership, grantor trust, or Subchapter S corporation for
United States federal income tax purposes; or
(2) is a partnership, grantor trust, or Subchapter S corporation for
United States federal income tax purposes, and (i) at no time
during the term of the Partnership will 65% or more of the value of
any beneficial owner's direct or indirect interest in the Investor be
attributable to the Investor's interests in the Partnership, (ii) less
than 65% of the value of the Investor is attributable to the
Investor's interests in the Partnership, and (iii) permitting the
5
EFTA00806041
CONFIDENTIAL
Partnership to satisfy the 100-partner limitation set forth in
Section 1.7704-1(h)(1)(ii) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations is not a
principal purpose of any beneficial owner of the Investor or of any
person authorized to act on the Investor's behalf, for using the
tiered arrangement within the meaning of U.S. Treasury
Regulation Section 1.7704-1(h)(3)(ii).
(o) Status as Disregarded Entity. Unless the Investor has notified the General
Partner in writing on or before the date hereof (which writing shall be acknowledged by the
General Partner and shall constitute a representation of the Investor hereunder), the Investor is
not disregarded as an entity separate from its owner within the meaning of U.S. Treasury
Regulation Section 301.7701-2(c)(2)(i) (a "Disregarded Entity"). If the Investor has notified
the General Partner in writing that it is a Disregarded Entity, then the sole owner of the Investor
for U.S. federal income tax purposes (the "Sole Owner") represents as follows:
(1) the Sole Owner either:
(A) is not a partnership, grantor trust, or Subchapter S corporation for
United States federal income tax purposes; or
(B) is a partnership, grantor trust, or Subchapter S corporation for
United States federal income tax purposes, and (x) at no time during the
term of the Partnership will 65% or more of the value of any beneficial
owner's direct or indirect interest in the Sole Owner be attributable to the
Sole Owner's interests in the Partnership, (y) less than 65% of the value
of the Sole Owner is attributable to the Sole Owner's interests in the
Partnership, and (z) permitting the Partnership to satisfy the 100-partner
limitation set forth in Section 1.7704-1(h)(1)(ii) of the U.S. Treasury
Regulations is not a principal purpose of any beneficial owner of the Sole
Owner, or of any person authorized to act on the Sole Owner's behalf, for
using the tiered arrangement within the meaning of U.S. Treasury
Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)(3)(ii).
(2) The Sole Owner will not transfer or otherwise dispose of or distribute any
part of its economic or beneficial interest in (or any rights with respect to) the
Investor or the Interest without complying with all of the applicable provisions of
the Partnership Agreement as if the Sole Owner were a direct Limited Partner of
the Partnership and were transferring a direct limited partner interest in the
Partnership.
(p) No Borrowings. The Investor has not borrowed any portion of its
contribution to the Partnership, either directly or indirectly, from the Partnership, the General
Partner, or any Affiliate of the foregoing.
(q) Partnership Counsel Does Not Represent the Investors. The Investor
understands and acknowledges that Barack Ferrazzano Kirschbaum and Nagelberg LLP
("BFKN") represents only the Partnership and the General Partner and certain of their respective
Affiliates, and not the Investor, in connection with the formation of the Partnership and the sale
6
EFTA00806042
CONFIDENTIAL
of the Interest, and that the Investor should consult its own legal and tax advisers in connection
therewith. The Investor also understands that no independent counsel has been retained to
represent the Limited Partners. The Investor acknowledges that BFKN has not independently
verified any factual assertions made in the Summary and is not responsible for the Partnership's
compliance with its investment program or applicable law. The Investor represents that it has
not relied upon BFKN's participation in the preparation of the Offering Materials or its
representation of the parties named above in connection with its investment in the Partnership.
(r) Privacy Notice. If the Investor is a natural person, he or she acknowledges
receipt of the notice attached hereto as Exhibit E regarding the privacy of consumer financial
information pursuant to the privacy rules promulgated by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission
and the SEC under section 504 of the U.S. Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the "Privacy Rules"), and
agrees that the Interest is a financial product that the Investor has requested and authorized. In
accordance with the Privacy Rules, the Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Partnership
may disclose nonpublic personal information of the Investor to the Partnership's accountants,
attorneys and other service providers as necessary to effect, administer and enforce the
Partnership and its partners' rights and obligations, or as otherwise may be required by
applicable law, rule or regulation.
(s) Nominees and Custodians. The Investor shall promptly notify the General
Partner in writing (which shall be acknowledged by the General Partner in writing) if the
Investor is acting as nominee, custodian or other type of agent (whether disclosed or
undisclosed). If the undersigned is acting as nominee or custodian for another person, entity or
organization in connection with the purchase or holding of the Interest, the undersigned has so
indicated on its signature page hereto. The representations and warranties contained in this
Section 2 regarding the "Investor" are true and accurate with regard to each person, entity or
other organization for which the undersigned is acting as nominee or custodian. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the representations and warranties regarding the status of
the Investor in Exhibits A through D are true with respect to, and accurately describe, each
person, entity or organization for which the undersigned is acting as nominee or custodian. Each
person, entity or organization for which the undersigned is acting as nominee or custodian will
not Transfer or otherwise dispose of or distribute any part of its economic or beneficial interest in
(or any other rights with respect to) the Interest without complying with all of the applicable
provisions of the Partnership Agreement (including seeking the consent of the General Partner to
any such transfer) as if such person, entity or organization were a direct Limited Partner of the
Partnership and were transferring a direct limited partner interest in the Partnership. If the
undersigned is acting as nominee or custodian for another person, entity or organization, the
undersigned agrees to provide such other information as the General Partner may reasonably
request regarding the undersigned and the person, entity or organization for which the
undersigned is acting as nominee or custodian in order to determine the eligibility of the Investor
to purchase the Interest.
(t) Final Form. The Investor understands and acknowledges that his, her or
its purchase of an Interest in the Partnership shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and the Partnership Agreement, in each case in the definitive form as shall be
executed by the parties hereto and thereto, and as the same may be amended from time to time in
accordance with their respective terms. The Investor further understands and acknowledges that
7
EFTA00806043
CONFIDENTIAL
the definitive form of the Partnership Agreement may have terms and conditions different from
those disclosed originally in the Summary.
(u) No General Solicitation or General Advertisement. The Investor
acknowledges that it is not purchasing an Interest as a result of or subsequent to (i) any
advertisement, article, notice or other communications published in any newspaper, magazine or
similar media (including any internet site that is not password protected) or broadcast over
television or radio, or (ii) any seminar or meeting whose attendees, including the Investor, had
been invited as a result of, subsequent to or pursuant to the foregoing.
(v) OFAC and Anti-Money Laundering. The Investor hereby acknowledges
that the Partnership seeks to comply with all applicable sanctions imposed under the laws,
regulations or executive orders administered and enforced by the U.S. Treasury Department's
Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC"), pursuant to 31 C.F.R. Sub. B, Chap. V ("OFAC
Sanctions") and all other applicable laws concerning money laundering and related activities. In
furtherance of those efforts, the Investor, on behalf of itself, its "controlling parties" (as defined
below in this Section 2(v)) and any disclosed or undisclosed principal for which the Investor is
acting as a nominee or other type of agent, certifies, based on appropriate diligence and
investigation, that:
(i) it and any such controlling party and disclosed or undisclosed
principal or any other person or entity of whom it is acting on
behalf is not named on any prohibited lists maintained by the U.S.
government, including, but not limited to, the OFAC list of
Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons;
(ii) it and any such controlling party and disclosed or undisclosed
principal or any other person or entity of whom it is acting on
behalf is not otherwise the target of any OFAC Sanctions;
(iii) none of the cash or property that the Investor has paid, will pay or
will contribute to the Partnership has been or shall be derived from,
or related to, any activity that is prohibited under the OFAC
Sanctions, and no cash, property or item of value that Investor
receives from the Partnership will be used in any transaction or
manner that is prohibited under the OFAC Sanctions;
(iv) none of the cash or property that the Investor has paid, will pay or
will contribute to the Partnership has been or shall be derived from,
or related to, any activity that is deemed criminal under United
States law; and
(v) no contribution or payment by the Investor to the Partnership, to
the extent that they are within the Investor's control, shall cause
the Partnership or the General Partner to be in violation of the
United States Bank Secrecy Act, as amended, or any regulation
issued thereunder; the criminal money laundering provisions set
8
EFTA00806044
CONFIDENTIAL
forth in Title 18 of the United States Code; or the OFAC
Sanctions.
For purposes of this Section 2(v), "controlling party" means any person or entity who owns more
than 50% of the economic interest in another person or entity or controls the board of directors or
similar governing body, the day-to-day operations or material business decisions of such other
person or entity.
The Investor agrees to promptly provide to the General Partner any additional information
regarding the Investor or its beneficial owners that the General Partner deems necessary or
convenient to ensure compliance with all applicable laws concerning money laundering and
similar activities, including without limitation the information described in Exhibit F. The
Investor understands and agrees that if at any time it is discovered that any of the foregoing
representations are incorrect, or if otherwise required by applicable law, regulation or
administrative pronouncement related to money laundering and similar activities, the General
Partner may undertake appropriate actions to ensure compliance with applicable laws,
regulations and administrative pronouncements, including, but not limited to those actions
described in the Partnership Agreement. The Investor further understands that the Partnership or
General Partner may release confidential information about the Investor and, if applicable, any
underlying beneficial owners, to proper authorities if the General Partner, in its sole discretion,
determines that it is in the best interests of the Partnership in light of relevant rules, regulations
and administrative pronouncements under the laws set forth in this Section 2(v).
(w) FOIA; Confidentiality. Except to the extent otherwise disclosed to the
General Partner and acknowledged by the General Partner in writing prior to its admission to the
Partnership, the Investor represents that it is not a FOIA Partner (as defined herein). The
Investor agrees to provide prompt written notice to the General Partner if at any time during the
term of the Partnership (i) it becomes a FOIA Partner, or (ii) it becomes aware of any reason,
whether under law, regulation, policy or otherwise, that it or any of its equity holders will, or
might become compelled to, use the Partnership Information other than as contemplated by
Section 14.8(h) of the Partnership Agreement or disclose Partnership Information in violation of
the confidentiality restrictions in Section 14.8(h) of the Partnership Agreement. For purposes of
this Agreement, a "FOIA Partner" shall mean any Investor that is (A) directly or indirectly
subject to either section 552(a) of Title 5, United States Code (commonly known as the
"Freedom of Information Act") or any similar federal, state, county or municipal public
disclosure law, whether foreign or domestic; (B) subject, by regulation, contract or otherwise, to
disclose Partnership Information to a trading exchange or other market where interests in such
person are sold or traded, whether foreign or domestic; (C) required to or will likely be required
to disclose Partnership Information to a governmental body, agency or committee (including,
without limitation, any disclosures required in accordance with the U.S. Ethics in Government
Act of 1978, as amended, and any rules and regulations of any executive, legislative or judiciary
organization), whether foreign or domestic, by virtue of such person's (or any of its Affiliate's)
current or proposed involvement in government office; (D) an agent, nominee, fiduciary,
custodian or trustee for any person described in the preceding clauses (A) through (C) where
Partnership Information provided or disclosed to such person by the Partnership or the General
Partner is provided or could at any time become available to such person described by the
preceding clauses (A) through (C); or (E) an investment fund or other entity that has any person
described in the preceding clauses (A) through (C) as a partner, member or other beneficial
9
EFTA00806045
CONFIDENTIAL
owner where Partnership Information provided or disclosed to such person by or on behalf of the
Partnership or the General Partner is disclosed to or could at any time become available to such
person described by the preceding clauses (A) through (C).
(x) Compliance with FINRA Rules. If the Partnership or a Portfolio
Company determines to invest in securities that are part of a "new issue" within the meaning of
the rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") (including FINRA Rules
5130 and 5131), the Investor agrees to timely provide to the General Partner upon request such
information as may be necessary or appropriate, as determined by the General Partner, to enable
the Partnership to comply with all applicable FINRA rules; including, without limitation,
representations as to the Investor's "restricted person" status, FINRA affiliations and
associations. The failure to timely respond to any such request by the General Partner may result
in (i) the Investor's Interest being treated as held by a "restricted person" for purposes of FINRA
Rule 5130, or as a person or account prohibited from receiving an allocation of shares of a new
issue for purposes of Rule 5131, with no exemption to such rules applicable, and/or (ii) the
Investor being excluded from receiving any allocation of income related to an investment in
"new issue" securities.
(y) Duty to Update. The foregoing representations and warranties of the
Investor and any other information provided by the Investor in this Agreement are true and
correct as of the date hereof, shall be true and correct as of the Investor's admission to the
Partnership and as of the date of each capital contribution by the Investor to the Partnership. If, at
any time during the term of the Partnership, any of the above representations or warranties
becomes untrue or incorrect in any respect, the Investor shall promptly notify the General
Partner.
3. Closing and Capital Contributions. The closing of the sale and purchase of the
Interest (the "Closing") shall take place on such date and time and at such place as shall be
selected by the General Partner. The initial capital contribution for the purchase of the Investor's
Interest as well as each additional capital contribution shall take place at such times and in the
manner specified in the Partnership Agreement.
4. Agreements with Other Limited Partners. The purchases of the Interest by the
Investor and interests in the Partnership by the other Limited Partners are to be separate
purchases from the Partnership and the sales of the Interest to the Investor and interests in the
Partnership to the other Limited Partners are to be separate sales by the Partnership. This
Agreement and the subscription agreements to be executed by such other Limited Partners are
sometimes collectively referred to herein as the "Subscription Agreements."
5. Representations and Warranties. The Partnership and the General Partner hereby
represent and warrant to the Investor that at the time of the Closing:
(a) Organization and Standing of the Partnership. The Partnership is duly
organized and validly existing as a limited partnership under the Delaware Act and has all
requisite power and authority under the Partnership Agreement and such law to enter into and
carry out the terms of this Agreement, to conduct its activities as described in the Partnership
Agreement, to issue and sell the Interest and to admit the Investor to the Partnership. Each of the
Partnership and the General Partner is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing
10
EFTA00806046
CONFIDENTIAL
in each jurisdiction in which the character of the business conducted by it makes such
qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a material
adverse effect on the business, operations or financial condition of the Partnership.
(b) Governmental and Regulatory Approval. Neither the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, nor the offer or sale of the Interest, requires any material consent,
approval or authorization from, or filing, registration or qualification with, any United States
federal, state or local governmental or regulatory authority (including, without limitation,
registration under the Securities Act), on the part of the Partnership, except for (i) compliance by
the Partnership and the General Partner with the requirements of any applicable United States
state securities ("Blue Sky") laws and (ii) filing by the Partnership of a Form D with the United
States Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act.
