Company in determining to invest in the Shares. The undersigned has
consulted, to the extent deemed appropriate by the undersigned, with the
undersigned’s own advisers as to the financial, tax, legal and related matters
concerning an investment in the Shares and on that basis believes that his or
its investment in the Shares is suitable and appropriate for the
undersigned.

Review. The undersigned is aware that no federal or state
agency has (i) made any finding or determination as to the fairness of this
investment, (ii) made any recommendation or endorsement of the Shares or the
Company, or (iii) guaranteed or insured any investment in the Shares or any
investment made by the Company.
