If the Investor is an entity that has beneficial owners (as applicable), each beneficial owner of interests in the Investor has and will share in the same proportion of each such investment. 10 EFTA00810371 (iii) If an entity, the Investor's investment in the Fund will not constitute more than forty percent (40%) of the Investor's assets (including for this purpose any committed capital for an Investor that is an investment fund). The term "committed capital" includes all amounts which have been contributed to the Investor by its shareholders, partners, members or other beneficial owners plus all amounts which such persons remain obligated to contribute to the Investor. (iv) If the Investor is an entity that has beneficial owners (as applicable), the governing documents of the Investor require that each beneficial owner of the Investor, including, but not limited to, shareholders, partners and beneficiaries, participate through such beneficial owner's interest in the Investor in all of the Investor's investments and that the profits and losses from each such investment are shared among such beneficial owners in the same proportions as all other investments of the Investor.

(v) If an entity, the Investor was not organized or recapitalized (and is not to be recapitalized) for the specific purpose of acquiring the Interest. 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. (vi) The Investor does not have, in purchasing an Interest, a principal purpose of permitting the Fund to satisfy the 100-partner limitation contained in Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)(1) and, to the best of the Investor's knowledge, no owner of a beneficial interest in the Investor has such a purpose. (vil) The Investor is not an "employee benefit plan," as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, that is subject to the provisions of Part 4 of Title I of ERISA, a "plan," as defined in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code, or an entity that is deemed to be a "benefit plan investor" under the U.S. Department of Labor final plan assets regulation, 29 C.F.R. §2510.3-101, as amended (the "Regulation") and as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA.

If the Investor is unable to make either of such representations, the Investor hereby agrees to provide the General Partner, prior to the effective date of the purchase of the Interest, with evidence (including opinions of counsel, if requested) satisfactory in form and substance to the General Partner relating to the status of the Fund under Section 7704 of the Code.
