considerations involved with an investment in the Fund with its own legal, tax and other advisers. The Subscriber has consulted to the extent deemed appropriate by the Subscriber with the Subscriber’s own advisers as to the financial, tax,
legal, accounting, regulatory and related matters concerning an investment in the Fund and on that basis understands the financial, tax, legal, accounting, regulatory and related consequences of an investment in the Fund, and believes that an

indefinite period of time; (ii) has adequate means of providing for his, her or its current needs and possible personal contingencies even in the event of a complete loss of this investment; and (iii) has no need for liquidity of the

liquidity.

 (d) Additional Risk Disclosures. The Subscriber is solely responsible for reviewing,
understanding and considering the risks above and any additional risks, including without limitation those described in the Offering Materials. The Fund’s business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely
affected by any one or more of those risk factors, as could the underlying value of each Shareholder’s Shares, which may lead to the complete loss of any investment Subscriber makes in the Fund. 

3.8. Restrictions on Transfer and Redemption. The Subscriber acknowledges and is aware that (i) there are substantial restrictions
on the transferability of the Shares; (ii) there may be no public market for the Shares; (iii) there are currently substantial restrictions on a Shareholder’s ability to redeem all or a portion of such Shareholder’s Shares in the

restriction upon the disclosure of information imposed by any enactment or otherwise. 
 (f) Admission of Shareholders. The
Subscriber understands and agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Trust Agreement, any side letter or any other agreement, the Sponsor, on behalf of the Fund, may (i) not accept any subscription for Shares from a

Fund, the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 3.10 cease to be true in any material respect, the Subscriber shall promptly so notify the Fund in writing.

(i) to provide documentation as reasonably requested by the Sponsor related to any Disqualifying Event and (ii) to implement a remedy to address the Subscriber’s changed circumstances so that the changed circumstances will not affect
in any way the Fund’s or the Management Parties’ ongoing and/or future reliance on an exemption under the Securities Act provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D.

Subscriber has not become subject to a Disqualifying Event at any date after the date of the Subscriber’s signature on the Signature Page, and the Subscriber further acknowledges and agrees that the Sponsor shall understand and deem the failure
by the Subscriber to respond in writing to any requests to be an affirmation and restatement of the representations, warranties and covenants in this Section 4.
