The undersigned acknowledges that the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of ACP Institutional Strategic Opportunities Fund (the “Company”) has the discretion to place the subscribed amount in the Company, based on whether the undersigned is an “accredited investor.” Terms not defined herein have the meaning set forth in the Company’s Confidential Private Placement Memorandum (“Memorandum”).

The undersigned further represents that the financial condition of the undersigned is such that the undersigned is not under any present necessity or constraint to dispose of any of such Units to satisfy any existing or contemplated debt or undertaking. The undersigned further represents that the undersigned has no present or contemplated agreement, undertaking, arrangement, obligation, indebtedness or commitment providing for or which is likely to compel a disposition in any manner of any of the Units, that the undersigned is not aware of any circumstances presently in existence which are likely to promote in the future any disposition by the undersigned of the Units and that the undersigned does not have in mind any sale of any Units upon the occurrence or nonoccurrence of any predetermined or undetermined event or circumstance.
