Accredited Investor Definition


 


The Subscriber will be an “Accredited
Investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Act”) if the Subscriber is any of the following:


 


(1) Any
bank as defined in section 3(a)(2) of the Act, or any savings and loan association or other institution as defined in section 3(a)(5)(A)
of the Act whether acting in its individual or fiduciary capacity; any broker or dealer registered pursuant to section 15 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934; any investment adviser registered pursuant to section 203 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 or registered pursuant
to the laws of a state; any investment adviser relying on the exemption from registering with the SEC under section 203(l) or (m) of the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940; any insurance company as defined in section 2(a)(13) of the Act; any investment company registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 or a business development company as defined in section 2(a)(48) of that act; any Small Business Investment
Company licensed by the U.S. Small Business Administration under section 301(c) or (d) of the Small Business Investment Act of 1958; any
Rural Business Investment Company as defined in section 384A of the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development Act; any plan established
and maintained by a state, its political subdivisions, or any agency or instrumentality of a state or its political subdivisions, for
the benefit of its employees, if such plan has total assets in excess of $5,000,000; any employee benefit plan within the meaning of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 if the investment decision is made by a plan fiduciary, as defined in section 3(21) of
such act, which is either a bank, savings and loan association, insurance company, or registered investment adviser, or if the employee
benefit plan has total assets in excess of $5,000,000 or, if a self-directed plan, with investment decisions made solely by persons that
are accredited investors;


 


(2) Any
private business development company as defined in section 202(a)(22) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940;


 


(3) Any
organization described in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, corporation, Massachusetts or similar business trust, partnership,

(5) Any natural

excluding the estimated fair market value of such person’s primary residence)
	 	 	 
	 	 	minus

		1	Note to paragraph (5): For the purposes of calculating
joint net worth in this paragraph (5): joint net worth can be the aggregate net worth of the investor and spouse or spousal equivalent;
assets need not be held jointly to be included in the calculation. Reliance on the joint net worth standard of this paragraph (5) does
not require that the securities be purchased jointly.

For these purposes, “liabilities”:
(1) exclude any mortgage or other debt secured by such person’s primary residence in an amount of up to the estimated fair market
value of that residence; but (2) include any mortgage or other debt secured by such person’s primary residence in an amount in excess
of the estimated fair market value of that residence.

in the current year;


 


(7) Any

is directed by a sophisticated person as described in Rule 506(b)(2)(ii) under the Act;

(10) Any
individual holding in good standing one or more professional certifications or designations or credentials from an accredited educational
institution that the SEC has designated as qualifying an individual for accredited investor status (e.g., Licensed General Securities

(Series 82));


 


(11) Any
individual who is a “knowledgeable employee,” as defined in Rule 3c-5(a)(4) under the Investment Company Act, of the issuer
of the securities being offered where the issuer is a private fund (excluded from the definition of investment company in Section 3(c)(1)
or 3(c)(7));


 


 (12) Any “family office,” as defined in Rule 202(a)(11)(G)-1 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940:




 


		●	with assets under management in excess of $5 million;
