Each Limited Partner shall provide to the General Partner such information, forms or representations that the General Partner may reasonably request with respect to the Fund’s compliance with applicable tax laws. Without limiting the foregoing, each Limited Partner agrees to provide to the General Partner such information regarding the Limited Partner and its beneficial owners, and any forms with respect thereto, as the General Partner may request from time to time in order for the Fund to comply with its obligations under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, all rules, regulations and other guidance issued thereunder, and all administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code, and all applicable intergovernmental agreements entered into between the United States and another country (or local country legislation enacted pursuant to such intergovernmental agreement) (collectively, “FATCA”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, each Limited Partner hereby waives the application of any non-U.S. law to the extent that such law would prevent the Fund or the General Partner from reporting to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, the U.S. Treasury or any other governmental authority any information required to be reported under FATCA with respect to such Limited Partner and its beneficial owners. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, each Limited Partner further agrees that, if such Limited Partner fails to comply with any of the requirements of this Section 15.3 (Tax Information) in a timely manner or if the General Partner determines that such Limited Partner’s participation in the Fund would otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Fund or the Limited Partners as a result of FATCA, then (i) the General Partner, in its sole discretion, may (A) cause such Limited Partner to Transfer its Interest to a third party (including an existing Limited Partner) or otherwise withdraw from the Fund in exchange for consideration which the General Partner, in its sole discretion, after taking into account all relevant facts and circumstances surrounding such transfer or withdrawal (including the desire to effect such transfer or withdrawal as expeditiously as possible in order to minimize any adverse effect on the Fund and the other Limited Partners as a result of FATCA), deems to be appropriate or (B) take any other action the General Partner deems in good faith to be reasonable to minimize any adverse effect on the Fund and the other Limited Partners as a result of FATCA; and (ii) unless otherwise agreed by the General Partner in writing, such Limited Partner shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify the Fund for all losses, costs, expenses, damages, claims, and demands (including, but not limited to, any withholding tax, penalties, or interest suffered by the Fund) arising as a result of such Limited Partner’s failure to comply with the above requirements in a timely manner. Any cost or expense incurred by the Partnership Representative or the Designated Individual in connection with such Person’s duties in such capacity shall be paid by the Fund, and the Fund shall reimburse the Partnership Representative and the Designated Individual for their respective reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in such capacities, including travel expenses and the costs and expenses incurred to engage accountants, legal counsel, or experts to assist the Partnership Representative or the Designated Individual in discharging their duties hereunder. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Partnership Representative and the Designated Individual shall have full and absolute discretion over all tax matters with respect to the Fund, including, but not limited to, the filing of tax returns, tax proceedings, and tax elections. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, the provisions of Section 14.6 (Withholding) and this Section 15.3 (Tax Information) will survive the liquidation or dissolution of the Fund, and each Limited Partner agrees to continue to be bound to the terms of Section 14.6 (Withholding) and this Section 15.3 (Tax Information) following such Limited Partner’s withdrawal from the Fund.

The Fund and each Limited Partner agree that they shall be bound by the actions taken by the Partnership Representative and the Designated Individual, as described in Section 6223(b) of the Code. The Limited Partners consent to the election set forth in Section 6226(a) of the Code and agree to take any action and furnish the Partnership Representative and the Designated Individual with any information reasonably necessary to give effect to such election if the Partnership Representative or the Designated Individual decides to make such election.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Partnership Representative and the Designated Individual shall have full and absolute discretion over all tax matters with respect to the Fund, including, but not limited to, the filing of tax returns, tax proceedings, and tax elections. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, the provisions of Section 14.6 (Withholding) and this Section 15.3 (Tax Information) will survive the liquidation or dissolution of the Fund, and each Limited Partner agrees to continue to be bound to the terms of Section 14.6 (Withholding) and this Section 15.3 (Tax Information) following such Limited Partner’s withdrawal from the Fund.
