6. Minnesota — By executing the Subscription Agreement of the Fund, a Minnesota Purchaser is deemed to represent and warrant to the Fund that such person is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act of 1933. An accredited investor includes: (1) any natural person whose individual net worth, or joint net worth with that person’s spouse, at the time of such person’s purchase of the Units exceeds $1,000,000 (excluding the value of such person’s residence); or (2) any natural person who had individual income in excess of $200,000 in each of the two most recent years, or joint income with that person’s spouse in excess of $300,000 in each of those years, and has a reasonable expectation of reaching the same income level in the current year. For purposes of determining the value of the primary residence to be excluded from net worth, such person should exclude any net equity in his or her primary residence (i.e., the amount by which the current market value of the residence exceeds the current outstanding balance of any mortgage or other indebtedness secured by the residence). If the current outstanding balance of any such mortgage or other indebtedness exceeds the current market value of the residence, the amount of any such excess shall cause a reduction in such person’s net worth. If the current outstanding balance of such mortgage exceeds the amount outstanding 60 days before the proposed subscription date (other than as a result of the acquisition of the such person’s primary residence), the amount of such excess shall cause a reduction in such person’s net worth.”
