relied solely upon the information contained therein and upon investigations
made by the undersigned in making the decision to purchase the Shares hereunder.

undersigned's current needs and possible personal contingencies and has no need
for liquidity in this investment and the undersigned can bear the economic risk
and/or entire loss of any investment in the Shares. The undersigned's commitment
to illiquid investments is reasonable in relation to the undersigned's net
worth.
c. The undersigned is acquiring the Shares without relying
upon any sales literature, prospectus, or other written materials other than the
1934 Act Reports including the exhibits thereto, and has investigated to the
undersigned's satisfaction the nature and risks inherent in this investment, and
has relied solely on the investigations made by the undersigned in making the
decision to invest in the Shares.

solely for the undersigned's own account, for investment purposes and not with a
view to resale, fractionalization, disposition or distribution of all or any
part thereof. The undersigned will be the sole party in interest in this
investment and will be vested with all legal and equitable rights in the Shares.
The undersigned is aware that there are legal and practical limits on the
undersigned's ability to sell or dispose of the Shares, and, therefore, that the
undersigned must bear the economic risk of the investment for an indefinite
period of time.
e. The undersigned recognizes that a purchase of the Shares
involves investment risks and the undersigned has taken full cognizance of and
understands all of the risk factors related to the purchase of the Shares.

officers, directors, shareholders, employees, and their attorneys and agents,
