Suitable Investors in accordance with the terms of the Memorandum and this
Agreement, provided that you reserve the right not to submit any potential
investors to the Fund.  You agree to assist the Fund in making
presentations to Suitable Investors and Selling Agent Investors. Once a Suitable

limited partner, you further agree to provide to the Fund such investor
relations services as the Fund may from time to time reasonably request,
including, but not limited to, the following (such services, the “Investor Relations

the Fund in processing redemption requests from Selling Agent Investors;
and

    Your
obligation to provide the ongoing Investor Relations Services described herein
shall (i) during the term of this Agreement extend only to Suitable Investors
and Selling Agent Investors solicited by you pursuant to this Agreement (and not
to any other persons) and (ii) upon termination of this Agreement, shall

remain limited partners of the Fund.

numbered copy of the Memorandum, and shall maintain adequate records of each
person to whom a Memorandum has been delivered.  At the end of each
calendar month, you will send a

    report to
the General Partner, which will include such information as the Suitable
Investors’ names, Memorandum numbers and states to which the Memorandum was
delivered. Each person desiring to purchase an Interest in the Offering shall be
required to execute and deliver to the Fund a completed and executed
subscription document, and pay the full amount of the subscription in accordance
with the instructions in the subscription documents.  You shall
transmit a copy of each Selling Agent Investor’s (or Suitable Investor’s, as
appropriate) original subscription document received by you to the Fund at the
address listed in the subscription documents as soon as received.

     

     

    1.3.2.    Acceptance Standards and
Procedures.  The Fund will not consider any proposed
subscription by a Suitable Investor or a Selling Agent Investor (as appropriate)
until its or his subscription documents have been completed, signed and
delivered.  After receipt of the subscription documents, the Fund will
determine whether it wishes to accept the offered subscription.  The
date on which an investor is accepted in to the Fund as a limited partner being
the “Investment
Date.”  Subscriptions for Interests will be accepted only from
subscribers that meet the investor suitability standards set forth in the
Memorandum.  The minimum initial required purchase by any subscriber
shall be $25,000 for Class A Interests and Class B, and $1,500,000 for
Institutional Interests unless the Suitable Investor otherwise meets the
criteria set forth in the Memorandum, plus any applicable selling commission. If
there is a conflict regarding a Suitable Investor due to a prior solicitation by
another selling agent, the General Partner shall promptly notify the Selling
Agent and use reasonable business efforts to reconcile the conflict. The General
Partner shall determine in its sole but reasonable discretion whether the
Selling Agent’s efforts resulted in the investment into the Fund being made and
therefore whether a prospective or existing limited partner is a Selling Agent
Investor pursuant to this Agreement, or is attributable to a selling agent other
than the Selling Agent.

     

    1.3.3.    Rejection.  Any
subscription may be rejected in whole or in part by the Fund, provided that the
Fund must notify the Selling Agent of its rejection of any subscription within
five (5) days of receipt of completed subscription documents.  Should
the Fund determine to reject a subscription, the Fund will promptly return the
subscription documents and the funds previously received from the person whose
subscription was rejected directly to the prospective purchaser.

     

    1.4.   Due Diligence.  You
agree to conduct your own investigation and not to recommend any prospective
investors to the Fund unless you determine that all material facts upon which
each Suitable Investor or Selling Agent Investor (as appropriate) might rely in
making his or its investment decision have been accurately and adequately
disclosed in the Memorandum to the extent you deem necessary and that each
Suitable Investor meets the suitability requirements set forth in the
Memorandum. You further acknowledge receipt of the Memorandum and will use the
Memorandum and other documents provided to you by the Fund only for solicitation
purposes in soliciting investors in the Fund.  You have read the
Memorandum and will not make any representations not set forth in the
Memorandum, or other materials regarding the Fund that are approved by the
General Partner for your use in soliciting Suitable Investors or Selling Agent
Investors (as appropriate).  You will return any undistributed copies

    Memorandum
to the Fund at the end of the term of this Agreement or as sooner requested by
the Fund.  This Section 1.4 does not relieve the Fund of its
independent obligation to ascertain the suitability of Selling Agent
Investors.  You will not alter any Fund documents without our consent
and will not prepare any other materials concerning the Fund without first
sending them to us for our review and approval.

     

    1.5.    Compensation to the Selling
Agent.

     

    1.5.1.    Fees and
Expenses.  In full compensation for your services described
herein, with respect to each Selling Agent Investor introduced and procured by
your efforts hereunder, the Fund and/or the General Partner, as applicable,
shall pay you the fees as set forth in Exhibit A (the “Fees”) attached
hereto.  The Fund will pay all costs and expenses of the Fund relating
to counsel, accountants for the Fund and the costs of preparing the
Memorandum.  You shall not be responsible for any expense of the Fund
or others for any charges or claims related to the Offering, but you shall be
responsible for all expenses incurred by you in connection with your performance
of your duties under this Agreement and neither the Fund nor the General Partner
shall have an obligation to reimburse you for any such expenses.

     

    1.5.2.    Payment of the
Fees.  Payment of the Fees to you is subject to the following
conditions:

     

    (a)           
Amounts will be payable to you only with respect to Interests owned by Selling
Agent Investors.

     

    (b)           The
General Partner shall determine in its sole but reasonable discretion whether
your efforts resulted in the investment into the Fund being made and therefore
whether a limited partner is a Selling Agent Investor.

     

    (c)           
No selling commissions will be paid from the proceeds of sales of Interests and
no Fees or any other payments shall be due to you for introductions or purchases
other than those specifically described herein.  You agree that with
respect to the services you will perform for the Fund hereunder you shall have
no right to seek and will not seek payment of any fee (including, but not
limited to, consulting, management, incentive or advisory) from any person or
entity other than the Fund or the General Partner.

     

    (d)    If any
registered representative of the Selling Agent becomes employed by another
appropriately registered firm (the “Transferee Firm”), and the
Selling Agent Investors introduced to the Fund by the registered
representative  (“Registered Representative
Investors”) become clients of the Transferee Firm, the Selling Agent
assigns, without the need for further documentation, its right to receive the
Fees attributable to Registered Representative Investors to the Transferee
Firm.

registered or licensed in good standing as a broker or dealer under applicable

(or any other person serving in a similar capacity) have not taken or failed to
take any act, and are not subject to any order or proceedings, that would make
unavailable any limited offering exemption from registration or qualification
requirements of state securities laws.  You are, and at each
Investment Date will be, duly licensed or qualified to do business and in good
standing as a foreign business enterprise in all jurisdictions in which the
nature of the activities conducted by it or the character of the assets owned or
leased by it makes such licensing or qualification necessary, except to the
extent that the failure to be so licensed or qualified does or will not have a
material adverse effect on the business or operations of you or the
Fund.

     

    4.5.   Statutory
Disqualifications.  You hereby represent that you are not in
violation of any “Bad Boy” provisions of any state, and no other issuer of
privately placed securities has declined or refused to accept the you as a
selling agent of such issuer's securities in connection with any conviction,
order, judgment or decree.  Specifically, that you (i) within the last
five years, have not filed a registration statement that is subject to a

administrator or the SEC, (ii) within the last five years, have not been
convicted of any criminal offense in connection with the offer, purchase or sale

the last five years, temporarily, preliminarily or permanently restraining or
enjoining you from engaging in or continuing to engage in any conduct or

any security.

     

    Section
5. Covenants
of the Selling Agent.

     

    You
covenant with the Fund as follows:

    


    5.1           Conduct of
Solicitation.  You or a person acting on your behalf will cause
each Suitable Investor to complete and execute subscription documents in order
to 

     

     

    
      
        Selling

    enable
the Fund to determine whether such person is qualified to acquire
Interests.  You will not execute any subscription documents for any
person and will not invest in the Interests through any person’s discretionary
trading account without the written approval of such person.  You will
abide by, and take reasonable precautions to insure compliance with, all
provisions contained in the Memorandum and this Agreement regulating the terms
and manner of conducting the Offering.  You further agree to the
following; (i) you will use no materials except the Memorandum and other
documents approved in writing by General Partner, (ii) you will not make any
representations to prospective investors not set forth in the Memorandum, and
(iii) you will inform all Suitable Investors of all pertinent facts relating to
the Fund risks, liquidity and marketability of their investment as set forth in
the Memorandum.

     

    5.2           Compliance with Federal and State
Securities Laws and Other Applicable Laws.  With respect to all
persons solicited by you under this Agreement, you will comply with all
applicable laws of the jurisdiction in which any offer or sale is
made.  You will offer the Interests in a private manner in compliance
with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder, including Regulation D.  You and
any person acting on your behalf will make offers of the Interests only to
persons whom you and your employees have reasonable grounds to believe and do
believe (i) have such knowledge and experience in business and financial matters
(either alone or together with a purchaser representative) that they are capable
of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment and of
protecting their own interests in connection with the transaction and (ii) meet
the investor suitability requirements contained in the
Memorandum.  You and any person acting on your behalf will cooperate
with the Fund so that the Interests are sold only to “accredited investors” as
such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D and you employees will exercise
reasonable care to ensure that a purchaser is not an underwriter within the
meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act.  You will comply with
all applicable requirements of any “Blue Sky” laws or rules or regulations
promulgated by states thereunder and will not offer or sell any of the Interests
except in compliance with such laws, or as preempted under Section 18(b)(4)(D)
of the Securities Act, added by the National Securities Markets Improvement Act
of 1996.  With respect to any state that limits the number of offers
and sales that may be made, you shall limit the number of offers and sales of
Interests as the Fund or the General Partner may advise you from time to
time.

     

    


    5.3           Confidentiality.  Except
as required by applicable Laws or legal process or pursuant to any legal,
regulatory or self-regulatory requests for information or documents, you agree
to comply with all applicable Laws relating to the privacy of personal financial
information of Suitable Investors and Selling Agents Investors under this
Agreement (e.g., Regulation S-P, other applicable regulations imposed by the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 and enforced by various federal regulatory
agencies, or applicable state personal financial privacy regulations). You will
obtain each Selling Agent Investor’s prior written consent to have statements,
reports and other documentation on their Interests in the Fund submitted to
you.

occurs at any time during the term of this Agreement.

    


    5.5           Anti-Money Laundering
(AML).  You hereby certify that: (i) you are required to establish
an anti-money laundering program, which satisfies the requirements of Title III
of the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required
to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (the “USA Patriot Act”) (ii) you
have developed, implemented, and will maintain such an anti-money laundering
program, including a customer identification program consistent with the rules
under sec. 326 of the USA Patriot Act, and will comply with all applicable laws
and regulations designed to guard against money laundering activities set out in
such program (iii) you will cooperate with the General Partner and deliver
information reasonably requested by the General Partner concerning Selling Agent
Investors as necessary for the General Partner or the Fund to comply with the
USA Patriot Act or any applicable federal and regulatory obligations; and (iv)
you will notify the General Partner, in writing, if it is found, by its
Compliance Officer, independent anti-money laundering auditor, or any Federal,
state, or self-regulatory agencies, to be in violation of the USA Patriot Act or
any applicable federal and regulatory obligations, or your anti-money laundering
program. You further represent that the covenants and certifications of this
Section 5.5 will apply equally with respect to each Selling Agent Investor found
and referred to the Fund pursuant to this Agreement, whether directly referred
to the Fund by you or indirectly referred to the Fund by you through an
affiliated registered investment adviser, or a non-affiliated registered
investment adviser with which a registered representative of yours is an
associated person.

    


    5.6           Recordkeeping and Business
Continuity.  You will maintain copies of all records relating
to Selling Agent Investors including, but not limited to, copies of subscription
documents, AML documentation and all Know Your Client (KYC)
records.  In the event that the General Partner or Fund experiences a
business disruption and/or loss of records, you also agree to assist the General
Partner and the Fund in servicing Selling Agent Investors during the disruption,
and in the duplication of records.

     

    Section
6. Indemnification.

     

       
6.1.   By the Fund.  The
Fund agrees to indemnify and hold harmless you and each person, if any, who
controls you within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which you or such
controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon facts which would constitute a breach by
the Fund of any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement in this
Agreement.

     

    6.2.   By the Selling
Agent.  You will indemnify and hold harmless the Fund and the
General Partner and each other person who controls the Fund or the General
Partner within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims,
damages or

    liabilities,
joint or several, to which the Fund, the General Partner or such other
controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon facts which would constitute a breach by
you of any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement in this
Agreement.

     

    6.3.   Notification.  Promptly
after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 of notice of the
commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect
thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 6,
notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the omission so
to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it
may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section
6.  In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party
and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the
indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent
that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified,
to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified
party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of
its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not
be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 6 for any legal or other
expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the
defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.

     

    Section
7. Termination
of This Agreement.

    


    7.1           Termination.  This
Agreement shall terminate upon written notice by the General Partner, the Fund
or the Selling Agent, provided that any Fees earned through the date of
termination shall be paid promptly following the date of termination (unless
such payment violates any applicable law).  Subsequent to termination
of this Agreement: (i) the Selling Agent’s obligation to perform the Investor
Relations Services described in Section 1.2 hereof shall survive such
termination of this Agreement for so long as any Selling Agent Investor remains
a limited partner of the Fund; and (ii) the obligation of the Fund and/or
General Partner, as applicable, to pay Fees shall survive termination and the
Selling Agent will continue to be paid Fees with respect to each Selling Agent
Investor that remains a limited partner of the Fund, but only if (a) the
termination is not based on the Selling Agent’s breach of its obligations under
this Agreement and (b) there is no entry of any order or decree by any court or
self regulatory body effectively prohibiting or enjoining the payment of Fees to
the Selling Agent for the performance of its obligations under this
Agreement.

     

    7.2.   Liability of
Parties.  All representations, warranties and indemnification
agreements contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force
and effect to the extent applicable, regardless of any termination pursuant to
Section 7.1, and shall survive the final Investment Date, as shall all
restrictions concerning the confidentiality of client and Fund-related
information set forth in Section 5.5 hereof.

date of its actual receipt by the party entitled thereto; (b) by e-mail, on the
date the e-mail was sent; (c) if by United States mail, two (2) days after the

    8.2.    Parties.  This
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon you, the Fund, the
General Partner and each of your, the Fund’s and the General Partner’s
respective successors and legal representatives.  Except as otherwise
set forth in this Section, nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is
intended or shall be construed to give any other person any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement, or any provision
herein contained.  No purchaser of Interests will be deemed a
successor because of such purchase.  You may not assign any benefit
nor delegate any duty under this Agreement without the prior written consent of

    8.3.    Governing Law.  This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the

their right to seek remedies in court, including the right to jury
trial.  Any dispute arising out of, or relating to, this Agreement or

interpretation thereof, shall be resolved exclusively by arbitration conducted
in the state of California and the city of San Diego in accordance with the
rules of JAMS/The Resolution Experts (“JAMS”) applying the laws of
California.  Other than as stated below with respect to a breach of

to seek modification of any ruling or award of the arbitrator is severely
limited.  Any award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and
binding, and judgment may be entered on it in any court of competent
jurisdiction.  The parties agree that money damages would be an
inadequate remedy for a breach of Sections 3.7 or 5.5 hereof and in the event of
a breach or threatened breach of Sections 3.7 or 5.5 hereof, the parties or
their successors or assigns may, in addition to other rights and remedies
existing in their favor, apply for specific performance and/or injunctive or
other relief in
