or in the future becomes, a Member, that each of the following statements shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date:

of Investment Experience and Ability to Bear Risk. You (i) are knowledgeable and experienced with respect to the financial,
tax and business aspects of the ownership of the Interests and of the business contemplated by the Company and are capable of

suffer the complete loss thereof.


 


(b)Accredited
Investor. You are an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities
Act.


 


(c)The
Interests have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold within the United
States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons except in accordance with the registration requirements of the Securities
Act or pursuant to an exemption from such registration requirements. You hereby agree that any disposition of the Interests, including
the transactions contemplated hereunder, and irrespective of whether the Interests are certificated, shall include the following
legend:


 


“THE
LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY INTERESTS OF THE COMPANY (THE “INTERESTS”) HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER NATION OR JURISDICTION
AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS THE SAME HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE
ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY HAS BEEN RENDERED TO THE COMPANY THAT AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION
UNDER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS IS AVAILABLE.


 


IN
ADDITION, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE INTERESTS IS RESTRICTED AS PROVIDED IN THE LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AGREEMENT
OF THE COMPANY.”


 


(d)Transfers
and Transferability. You understand and acknowledge that the Interests have not been registered under the Securities Act or
any state securities laws and are being offered and sold in reliance upon exemptions provided in the Securities Act and state
securities laws for transactions not involving any public offering and, therefore, cannot be resold or transferred unless they
are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and such applicable state securities laws or unless an exemption from such
registration is available. You also understand that the Company does not have any obligation or intention to register the Interests
for sale under the Securities Act, any state securities laws or of supplying the information which may be necessary to enable
you to sell Interests; and that you have no right to require the registration of the Interests under the Securities Act, any state
securities laws or other applicable securities regulations. You also understand that sales or transfers of Interests are further
restricted by the provisions of the Company Agreement.

or pledge to such person or anyone else any of the Interests for which you hereby subscribe (in whole or in part); and you represent
and warrant that you have no present plans to enter into any such contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement.


 


You
understand that, subject to Section 12.1(a) of the Company Agreement, the Interests cannot be sold or transferred without Board
Approval and Requisite Investor Approval, which approval may be withheld in their sole and absolute discretion and which approval
will be withheld if any such transfer could cause the Company to become subject to regulation under federal law as an investment
company or would subject the Company to adverse tax consequences or adverse consequences under ERISA.


 


You
understand that there is no public market for the Interests; any disposition of the Interests may result in unfavorable tax consequences
to you.


 


You
are aware and acknowledge that, because of the substantial restrictions on the transferability of the Interests, it may not be
possible for you to liquidate your investment in the Company readily, even in the case of an emergency.

Interests involve a substantial degree of risk of loss of your entire investment and that there is no assurance of any income
from your investment; (iii) that any federal, state, or foreign income tax benefits which may be available to you may be lost
through the adoption of new laws or regulations, to changes to existing laws and regulations and to changes in the interpretation
of existing laws and regulations; and (iv) any disposition of Interests may result in unfavorable tax consequences to you. You
further represent that you are relying solely on your own conclusions or the advice of your own counsel or investment representative
with respect to tax aspects of any investment in the Company.


 


(g)Power,
Authority; Valid Agreement. (i) You have all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform your obligations
under this Agreement and the Company Agreement and to subscribe for and purchase or otherwise acquire your Interests; (ii) your
execution of this Agreement and the Company Agreement has been authorized by all necessary corporate or other action on your behalf;
and (iii) this Agreement and the Company Agreement are each valid, binding and enforceable against you in accordance with their
respective terms.


 


(h)No
Conflict; No Violation. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Company Agreement by you and the performance
of your duties and obligations hereunder and thereunder (i) do not and will not result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions
or provisions of, or constitute a default under (A) any charter, bylaws, trust agreement, partnership agreement or other governing
instrument applicable to you, (B) (1) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit agreement, note or other evidence of indebtedness,
or any lease or other agreement or understanding, or (2) any license, permit, franchise or certificate, in either case to which
you or any of your Affiliates is a party or by which you or any of them is bound or to which your or any of their properties are
