become aware of any change in the information set forth in Part (18) or Part
(19) above. The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that, if required by

either by prohibiting additional investments from the Subscriber and/or
segregating assets of the Subscriber in compliance with government regulations
and, if required by law, the Company may also be required to report such action
and to disclose the Subscriber’s identity to OFAC. The Subscriber also
understands and agrees that the Company may release confidential information
about the Subscriber and, if applicable, any underlying beneficial owners of the
Subscriber, to law enforcement agencies to the extent necessary to ensure
compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations.

The Company reserves the right to request such information as is necessary to
verify the identity of the Subscriber, any related party, any individual or
entity having a beneficial interest in, or signatory or other similar authority
over, the Subscriber and any transferee of the Shares, and may seek to verify
such identity and the source of funds for the Purchase Price.

or organization in connection with the acquisition of the Shares, the
undersigned has so indicated on the “Subscriber Information” page attached
hereto. The representations and warranties contained in this Part C
regarding the Subscriber are true and accurate with regard to both the

not transfer or otherwise dispose of or distribute any part of its economic or
beneficial interest in (or any other rights with respect to) the Shares without
complying with all of the applicable provisions of this Subscription Agreement
and applicable law, as if such person, entity or organization were a holder of
the Shares. If the undersigned is acting as nominee or custodian for
another person, entity or organization, the undersigned agrees to provide such
other information as the Company may reasonably request regarding the
undersigned and the person, entity or organization for which the undersigned is
acting as nominee or custodian in order to determine the eligibility of the
Subscriber to purchase the Shares.
