Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the Purchaser must satisfy the conditions set forth in either of subsections (i) or (ii) above in order to purchase the Shares, and that the Company will rely upon the information provided in this Subscription Agreement to verify that the Purchaser satisfies the conditions set forth in either of subsections (i) or (ii) above.

2. Representations, Warranties and Agreements by the Purchaser. By executing this Subscription Agreement, the Purchaser is making the following representations, warranties and agreements to the Company and the Manager and that such representations, warranties and agreements are true as of the date of its execution of this Subscription Agreement, will be true on the date the Purchaser is admitted as a member of the Company:

(a)

Purchaser has received and carefully read and understood the Offering Circular and the Operating Agreement, and (i) understands the investment objectives and policies of the Company, and (ii) is thoroughly familiar with the proposed business, operations and financial condition of the Company. Purchaser has relied solely upon the Offering Circular and the Operating Agreement and independent investigations made by Purchaser or Purchaser’s representative with respect to its investment in the Shares.

(b)

In considering its investment in the Company, Purchaser has not relied upon any representations made by, or other information (whether oral or written) furnished by or on behalf of, the Company, or any affiliate thereof, or the Manager, or any director, manager, officer, equity holder, employee, agent, or counsel, or any representative or any representative of any of the foregoing, other than as specifically set forth in the Offering Circular and the Operating Agreement. Purchaser understands and acknowledges that neither the Company nor any other person or entity has made any representation, warranty or guaranty with respect to the return of Purchaser’s Subscription Commitment, or payments in respect thereof, with respect to any Shares purchased hereunder.

(c)

Purchaser understands that the Company has limited financial and operating history. Purchaser has been furnished with such financial and other information concerning the Company, its management, and its business, as Purchaser considers necessary in connection with its investment in the Shares. Purchaser has been given the opportunity (i) to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the Company and the Manager concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of Shares and other matters pertaining to an investment in the Company, and (ii) to obtain any additional information that the Company and Manager can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of Purchaser’s investment.

(d)

Purchaser is acquiring Shares in the Company for Purchaser’s own account (or for a trust if Purchaser is a trustee) solely for investment purposes and not with a view or intention to resell or distribute the same. Purchaser has no present intention, agreement, or arrangement to divide Purchaser’s acquisition with others or to resell, assign, transfer, or otherwise dispose of all or part of the Shares.

(e)

Purchaser or Purchaser’s investment advisors have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that will enable Purchaser to utilize the information made available to evaluate the merits and risks of the prospective purchase of Shares in the Company and to make an informed investment decision with respect thereto. Purchaser has been advised to consult Purchaser’s own attorney concerning this investment and to consult with independent tax counsel regarding the tax considerations of investing in the Shares offered by the Company.

(f)

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor the Manager is acting as Purchaser’s agent, advisor or fiduciary in connection with Purchaser’s purchase of the Shares, and has not provided Purchaser with any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the Shares.

(g)

Purchaser has carefully considered the suitability of an investment in the Shares in the Company and, if necessary, discussed the same with his/her/its legal, tax, accounting and financial advisers in light of Purchaser’s particular tax and financial situation, and Purchaser has determined that an investment in the Shares is a suitable investment for Purchaser. Purchaser acknowledges that no federal or state agencies have made any finding or determination as to the fairness or advisability of an investment in the Shares.

(h)

Purchaser has carefully reviewed and understands the terms and conditions of the Operating Agreement and the risks of investing in the Shares, including those set forth in the Offering Circular (including, without limitation, all RISK FACTORS set forth in the Offering Circular). Purchaser has carefully evaluated Purchaser’s financial resources and investment position and acknowledges that Purchaser is able to bear the economic risks of this investment. Purchaser further acknowledges that Purchaser’s financial condition is such that Purchaser is not under any present necessity or constraint to dispose of the Shares to satisfy any existent or contemplated debt or undertaking. Purchaser has adequate means of providing for Purchaser’s current needs and possible contingencies, has no need for liquidity in this investment in the Shares, and is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time, including a complete loss of Purchaser’s investment.

(i)

Purchaser has been advised that the Company will not be registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), in reliance upon the exemptions contained in either 3(c)(5)(c) of that Act or because under 3(a)(1) of that Act, the Company is not deemed to be an “investment company”. Purchaser agrees to take no action that could result in the Company or Manager being deemed in violation of the Act or the Investment Company Act.

(j)

All information which Purchaser has furnished in this Subscription Agreement concerning Purchaser, Purchaser’s financial position, and Purchaser’s knowledge of financial and business matters is correct, current, and complete. In addition, any financial and other information the Purchaser has provided to the Manager and Company on the Platform (or otherwise) is true, complete and accurate and does not contain any misstatement of a material fact or omission of any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

(k)

Purchaser understands and agrees that the Company is relying upon the truthfulness of the certification made by Purchaser as to its eligibility to purchase Shares made on the Platform and in Section 3 hereof. Purchaser further understands and agrees that the Company and Manager may request to be shown, in confidence, documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Company supporting the certification by the Purchaser as to the Purchaser’s eligibility to purchase Shares. The Purchaser is required to fully cooperate with any such requests before being permitted to invest in the Shares, and expressly and irrevocably consents and authorizes the Company to utilize any reasonable means of verifying the Purchaser’s eligibility to purchase Shares. The Manager reserves the right to refuse to accept any subscription as to which the Manager is not reasonably satisfied that the Purchaser is eligible hereunder to purchase Shares.

By executing this Subscription Agreement, the Purchaser irrevocably appoints the Manager and each officer of the Company, and the liquidating trustee, if any, for the Company acting in such capacity (each such person is referred to as the “Attorney”), as the Purchaser’s lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, and with full power and authority to act in the Purchaser’s name, place and stead, and on the Purchaser’s behalf, to make, execute, deliver, swear to, acknowledge, file and record (i) the Operating Agreement on the date the Purchaser is admitted as a member of the Company; (ii) all certificates and other instruments deemed necessary by the Manager or any liquidating trustee to carry out the provisions of the Operating Agreement, or applicable law, or to permit the Company to be treated as a “partnership” for federal income tax purposes and to provide limited liability to the members in each jurisdiction in which the Company may be doing business; (iii) all conveyances and other instruments or documents deemed necessary by the Manager or any liquidating trustee to effect the dissolution or termination of the Company, including a Certificate of Cancellation; (iv) all other agreements and instruments deemed necessary by the Manager to consummate any investment pursuant to the Operating Agreement; (v) any certificate of fictitious name, if required by law, for the Company; (vi) all instruments or documents required to effect a transfer of Shares; and (vii) such other certificates or instruments as may be required under the laws of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction, or by any regulatory agency, as the Manager or any liquidating trustee may deem necessary or advisable. The power of attorney granted hereby (x) is coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable and shall survive and not be affected by the subsequent death, disability, incapacity, dissolution, termination or bankruptcy of the Purchaser; (y) may be exercised by the Attorney, either by signing separately as attorney-in-fact for the Purchaser or by a single signature of the Attorney, acting as attorney-in-fact for all Purchasers in the Company; and (z) shall survive the assignment by the Purchaser of the whole or any fraction of the Purchaser’s Shares, except that, where the assignee of the whole of Purchaser’s Shares in the Company has been approved by the Manager for admission to the Company as a substituted member, the power of attorney shall survive the delivery of such assignment for the sole purpose of enabling the Attorney to execute, swear to, acknowledge and file any instrument necessary or appropriate to effect such substitution.

(b) Successors; Non-Assignability. This Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. If the Purchaser constitutes more than one person, the obligations of the Purchaser shall be joint and several, and the agreement, representations, warranties and acknowledgments contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be deemed to be made by and be binding upon each such persons and their successors and assigns. This Subscription Agreement is not transferable or assignable by the Purchaser.

(c) Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Subscription Agreement and the Operating Agreement, and the other agreements and documents referred to herein or in the Operating Agreement contain the entire agreement of the parties, and there are no representations, covenants or other agreements (written or oral) except as stated or referred to herein and in such other agreements or documents. This Subscription Agreement may only be amended by written agreement between the Company and Purchaser.

(d) Severability. Any term or provision of this Subscription Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability only as to such jurisdiction, without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms or provisions of this Subscription Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Subscription Agreement in any other jurisdiction.

(e) Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. The parties agree that this Subscription Agreement and all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of this Subscription Agreement (whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise) or the negotiation, validity, or performance hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be governed by and construed in all respects in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to any principles of conflict of laws of such State or of any other jurisdiction that would permit or require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. The parties further: (a) agree that any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Subscription Agreement shall be instituted exclusively in any Federal or State court of competent jurisdiction within the State of New York, (b) waive any objection that they may have now or hereafter to the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding, and (c) irrevocably consent to the in personam jurisdiction of any Federal or State court of competent jurisdiction within the State of New York in any such suit, action or proceeding. EACH PARTY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(f) Electronic Signature.

Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including .pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., clicking “I agree” or use of xxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes. Each party consents and agrees that its electronic signature meets the requirements of an original signature as if actually signed by such party in writing. Further, each party agrees that no certification authority or other third-party verification is necessary to the enforceability of its signature.
