(y) | I shall repeat the above representations, warranties, agreements and declarations for each and every subsequent subscription or conversion request I make in respect of the Participating Shares. |
(z) | I acknowledge and understand that the Company on behalf of and for the account of Portfolio and the Investment Advisor will need to evaluate the status of me and comply with AML, regulatory or tax requirements applicable to the Portfolio, its shareholders or any proposed investments of the Portfolio (including, without limitation, under or pursuant to the FATCA (as defined below)) and to avoid any penalty or withholding or other adverse consequence resulting from the Portfolio's failure to comply with such obligations and requirements. Furthermore, many jurisdictions are in the process of changing or creating AML embargo and trade sanctions and similar laws, regulations and requirements (whether or not with force of law) or regulatory policies and many financial intermediaries are in the process of changing or creating responsive disclosure and compliance policies (the "Requirements") and the Company on behalf of and for the account of Portfolio and the Investment Advisor could be required to obtain certain assurances from me, disclose information pertaining to me to governmental, regulatory or other authorities or to financial intermediaries or engage in due diligence or take other related actions in the future. I acknowledge and understand that it is the Company’s (on behalf of and for the account of the Portfolio) policy to comply with Requirements to which it may become subject and to interpret them broadly in favour of disclosure. I hereby agree, and by reason of holding the Participating Shares shall be deemed to have agreed, that I shall provide additional information or take such other actions as may be necessary for the Company on behalf of and for the account of Portfolio to comply with the Requirements or related legal process. I also represent that, to my knowledge, I shall at all times comply with any Requirements. I further acknowledge that the Company on behalf of and for the account of Portfolio and the Investment Advisor may take such action as each of them considers necessary in relation to my holding, distributions and/or redemption proceeds to ensure that any withholding tax payable by the Company on behalf of and for the account of Portfolio, and any related costs, interest, penalties and other losses and liabilities suffered by the Portfolio, the Investment Advisor, or any other investor, or any agent, delegate, employee, director, officer or affiliate of any of the foregoing persons, arising from such my failure to provide any requested documentation or other information to the Company on behalf of and for the account of Portfolio, is economically borne by me. For the purposes of this paragraph, "FATCA" means one or more of the following, as the context requires: |
(i) | sections 1471 to 1474 of the US Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and any associated legislation, regulations or guidance, commonly referred to as the US Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, the Common Reporting Standards ("CRS") issued by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development or similar legislation, regulations or guidance enacted in any other jurisdiction which seeks to implement equivalent tax reporting and/or withholding tax regimes; |
7
(ii) | any intergovernmental agreement, treaty or any other arrangement between the Cayman Islands and the US or any other jurisdiction (including between any government bodies in each relevant jurisdiction), entered into to facilitate, implement, comply with or supplement the legislation, regulations or guidance described in the sub clause directly above; and |
(iii) | any legislation, regulations or guidance implemented in the Cayman Islands to give effect to the matters outlined in the preceding paragraphs. |
(aa) | I confirm that the Participating Shares are to be purchased through transfer of the In Specie Shares that are from legitimate sources which do not constitute the proceeds of criminal conduct or criminal property within the meaning given in the Proceeds of Crime Law (as amended) of the Cayman Islands and the regulations or guidance notes issued pursuant thereto, further, I acknowledge and understand that if any person resident in the Cayman Islands knows or suspects or has reasonable grounds for knowing or suspecting that another person is engaged in criminal conduct or is involved with terrorism or terrorist property and the information for that knowledge or suspicion came to their attention in the course of business in the regulated sector, or other trade, profession, business or employment, the person will be required to report such knowledge or suspicion to (i) the Financial Reporting Authority of the Cayman Islands, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime Law (as amended) of the Cayman Islands if the disclosure relates to criminal conduct or money laundering, or (ii) a police officer of the rank of constable or higher, or the Financial Reporting Authority, pursuant to the Terrorism Law (as amended) of the Cayman Islands, if the disclosure relates to involvement with terrorism or terrorist financing and property and any such report shall not be treated as a breach of confidence or of any restriction upon the disclosure of information imposed by any enactment or otherwise and the fact of such disclosure shall not give rise to any liability for the disclosure. |
(bb) | I understand and acknowledge that where a subscription for Participating Shares is accepted, the Participating Shares will be treated as having been issued with effect from the relevant subscription day even though the subscriber for those Participating Shares may not be entered in the Portfolio’s register of members until after the relevant subscription day. |
(cc) | I acknowledge and agree that, the agreements and covenants in this Subscription Agreement will survive the acceptance (or rejection) of this Subscription Agreement and any subsequent redemption from the Portfolio by me of all my Participating Shares. |
(dd) | I acknowledge and agree that except as otherwise provided by applicable securities law, I am not entitled to cancel, terminate or revoke this subscription or any of my agreements hereunder after this Subscription Agreement has been submitted (and not rejected) and that this subscription and these agreements survive my death, incapacity, disability or insolvency. This Subscription Agreement is governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands. |
(ee) | I hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint the Portfolio and any of its Directors, officers (or its successor and any of its officers) with full power of substitution, acting jointly or severally, as my attorney-in-fact and agent to sign, execute and deliver, in my name and on my behalf, all or any such agreement, deeds, instruments, documents and/or any counterpart thereof or certificates or to take any such action as it deems necessary on one or more occasions pursuant to the terms of the Offering Documents and/or Articles, including (without limitation) the power and authority to sign, execute and deliver (or attach signature pages to) all agreements, deeds or instruments or documents, or any counterpart thereof, relating to any transfers of Participating Shares in my name.
