subscription was accepted by the General Partner);
(c) The General Partner shall have no obligation to accept subscriptions in the order
received;
(d) The Investor hereby requests and authorizes the General Partner to enter the Investor's
name in the books and records of the Fund as a holder of the Interest;

General Partner of the Investor's subscription and to the fulfillment, prior to or at the time of

(a) Except as otherwise disclosed in writing to the General Partner in this Agreement prior to
the acceptance by the General Partner of the Investor's subscription:
(0 To the best of the Investor's knowledge, the Investor does not control, nor is it
controlled by, or under common control with, any other Limited Partner of the
Fund.
(ii) If an entity, the Investor has made investments prior to the date hereof or intends
to make investments in the near future. 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. No such beneficial owner may vary such beneficial
owner's share of the profits and losses or the amount of such beneficial owner's
contribution for any investment made by 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.
(viii) The following representations are included with the intention of enabling the
Fund to qualify for the benefit of a "safe harbor" under Treasury Regulations
from treatment of the Fund as an entity subject to corporate income tax. Either:
(1) The Investor is not a partnership, grantor trust, or Subchapter S
corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, or
(2) The Investor is a partnership, grantor trust, or Subchapter S corporation
for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but (1) at no time during the term
of the Fund 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 Fund, (2) less than 65% of the value of the Investor is
attributable to the Investor's interests in the Fund, and (3) permitting the
Fund to satisfy the 100-partner limitation set forth in Section 1.7704-
1(h)(1)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations is not a principal purpose of any
11
EFTA00810372
beneficial owner of the Investor in investing in the Fund through the
Investor.
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. Further, if at any time
after the effective date of the purchase of the Interest the Investor can no longer
make either of such representations, the Investor shall promptly notify in writing
the General Partner.

partner in the Fund (each a "Significant Owner"). By way of example only, if

Significant Owner if one of the Investor's beneficial owners owns 50% or more
of the outstanding equity of the Investor. Each of the enumerated instances

Beneficial Owners have not become subject to a Disqualifying Event at any date
after the date hereof, and the Investor further acknowledges and agrees that the
General Partner shall understand and deem the failure by the Investor to respond

Confidential Information to a government body, agency or committee (including,
without limitation, any disclosures required in accordance with the Ethics in
Government Act of 1978, as amended, and any rules and regulations of any
executive, legislative or judiciary organization), whether foreign or domestic.
