WHEREAS, the Company has been formed for the purposes of carrying on business as a closed-end non-diversified management investment company; and
WHEREAS, Subscriber wishes to subscribe for and purchase, and the Company wishes to sell to Subscriber 10,000 Institutional Class I common Shares (the “Shares”) at a purchase price of $10.00 per share.
NOW THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED:
1. Subscriber subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company 10,000 Shares at a purchase price of $10.00 per share. Concurrent with the execution of this Agreement, Subscriber shall tender payment for these Shares to an officer of the Company.
2. The Company agrees to issue and sell said Shares to Subscriber promptly upon its receipt of the purchase price.
3. To induce the Company to accept its subscription and issue the Shares subscribed for, Subscriber represents that he is informed as follows:
(a) That the Shares being subscribed for have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”);
(b) That the Shares will be sold to the Subscriber by the Company in reliance on and pursuant to Section 4(a)(2), an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act;
(c) That the Company's reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is predicated in part on the representation and agreements contained in this Agreement;
(d) That when issued, the Shares will be “restricted securities” as defined in paragraph (a)(3) of Rule 144 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) and cannot be sold or transferred by Subscriber unless the Shares are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available; and
(e) That there do not appear to be any exemptions from the registration provisions of the Securities Act available to Subscriber for resale for the Shares. In the future, certain exemptions may possibly become available, including an exemption for limited sales in accordance with the conditions of Rule 144.
