(C)

The Investor understands and agrees that this subscription for the Shares is ineffective and that the Investor will not become a shareholder of the Trust until: (i) the Investor completes all applicable information requested in this Subscription Agreement, (ii) the Investor executes this Subscription Agreement and delivers it to the Trust or its agent, (iii) the Trust accepts the Subscription Agreement, and (iv) the Trust can and has confirmed that the subscription amount has been received in the appropriate account(s) established for the Portfolios.

(D)

The Investor understands and agrees that the Trust may reject this subscription for Shares for any reason or no reason, in whole or in part, and at any time prior to its acceptance.

(E)

The Investor hereby elects to treat all distributions of income as the Investor has indicated under “Election of Dividends” on the Investor Profile Form.

II.

REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF THE INVESTOR

(A)

The Investor has received a copy of the current PPM relating to the offer for sale by the Trust of the Shares of each relevant Portfolio and has had an opportunity to request the current SAI, and has reviewed the PPM carefully prior to executing this Subscription Agreement. The Investor acknowledges that the Investor had the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, representatives of the Trust concerning terms and conditions of the offering and to obtain any additional information necessary to verify the accuracy of the information contained in the PPM or the SAI.

(B)

The Investor has been provided an opportunity to obtain any further additional information concerning the offering, the Portfolios and all other information to the extent the Trust, Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC (the “Investment Manager”) possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense and has been given the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the Investment Manager concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and other matters pertaining to this investment.

(C)

The Investor acknowledges that it has made an independent decision to invest in the Portfolio(s) and that, in making its decision to subscribe for Shares, the Investor has relied solely upon the PPM, the SAI and independent investigations made by the Investor. The Investor is not relying on the Trust, the Investment Manager, or any other person or entity with respect to the legal, tax and other economic considerations involved in this investment other than the Investor’s own advisers.

(D)

The Investor is acquiring the Shares for its own account or the account of a beneficial owner,¹ for investment purposes only and not with a view toward distributing or reselling the Shares in whole or in part.

(E)

The Investor understands that no federal or state agency has passed upon the Interests or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of this investment.

(F)

The Investor will not sell or otherwise transfer the Shares without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or an exemption therefrom,

“Beneficial owners” will include, but not be limited to: (i) shareholders of a corporation; (ii) partners of a partnership; (iii) members of a limited liability company; (iv) investors in a fund-of-funds; (v) the grantor of a revocable or grantor trust; (vi) the beneficiaries of an irrevocable trust; (vii) the individual who established an IRA; (viii) the participant in a self-directed pension plan; (ix) the sponsor of any other pension plan; and (x) any person being represented by the Investor in an agent, representative, intermediary, nominee or similar capacity.

except to the extent that redemption is permitted as described in the PPM and SAI. The Investor understands and agrees that it must bear the economic risk of its investment for an indefinite period of time because, among other reasons, the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of certain states and, therefore, cannot be resold, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of unless it is so registered or an exemption from registration is available. The Investor further understands and agrees that such exemptions are extremely limited. The Investor understands that the Trust is under no obligation to register the Shares on its behalf or to assist it in complying with any exemption from registration under the Securities Act.

(G)

The Investor (either independently or in collaboration with its consultants and advisors) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Investor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Investor’s investment in the Portfolio(s) and is able to bear such risks, and has obtained, in the Investor’s judgment, sufficient information from the Investment Manager to evaluate the merits and risks of such investment. The Investor (either independently or in collaboration with its consultants and advisors) has evaluated the risks of investing in the Portfolio(s), understands there are substantial risks of loss incidental to the purchase of Xxxxxx and has determined that the Shares are a suitable investment for the Investor.

(H)

Shares in the Portfolios are sold only to persons who qualify as “accredited investors” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act and the rules, regulations and interpretations thereunder. The Investor understands that the representations, warranties, agreements, undertakings and acknowledgments made by the Investor in this Subscription Agreement will be relied upon by the Trust and the Investment Manager in determining the Investor’s suitability as a purchaser of Shares and the Trust’s compliance with federal and state securities laws.

(I)

The Investor has all requisite power, authority and capacity to acquire and hold the Shares and to execute, deliver and comply with the terms of each of the instruments required to be executed and delivered by the Investor in connection with the Investor’s subscription for the Shares, including this Subscription Agreement, and such execution, delivery and compliance does not conflict with, or constitute a default under, any instruments governing the Investor, any law, regulation or order, or any agreement to which the Investor is a party or by which the Investor may be bound.

(J)

All information which the Investor has provided to the Trust or the Investment Manager concerning the Investor, the Investor’s status, financial position and knowledge and, in the case of an Investor that is an entity, the knowledge of the person making the investment decision on behalf of such entity, is correct and complete as of the date set forth herein.

(K)

The Investor understands and agrees that, although the Trust will use its reasonable efforts to keep the information provided in the answers to this Subscription Agreement strictly confidential, the Trust may present this Subscription Agreement and the information provided in answers to it to such parties (e.g., affiliates, attorneys, auditors, administrators, brokers, regulators and service providers) as it deems necessary or

advisable, including to facilitate the acceptance and management of the Investor’s contributions including, but not limited to, in connection with anti-money laundering, tax and similar laws, if called upon to establish the availability under any applicable law of an exemption from registration of the Shares, the compliance with applicable law and any relevant exemption thereto by the Portfolios, the Investment Manager or its affiliates, or if the contents thereof are relevant to any issue in any action, suit, or proceeding to which the Trust, the Investment Manager, the Transfer Agent or their affiliates are a party or by which they are or may be bound. The Trust may also release information about the Investor if directed to do so by the Investor, if compelled to do so by law, or in connection with any government or self-regulatory organization request or investigation. The Investment Manager’s privacy policy is attached as Exhibit A.

(L)

The Investor hereby agrees that (i) any information provided or otherwise made available to the Investor regarding portfolio holdings of the Portfolios is the confidential property of the Portfolios and may not be traded upon; (ii) access to such information will be limited to the Investor’s employees and agents who are subject to a duty to keep and treat such information as confidential; and (iii) upon written request from the Trust or the Investment Manager the Investor shall promptly return or destroy such information.

(M)

The Investor acknowledges that United States Federal law, regulations and Executive Orders administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) may prohibit the Trust, the Investment Manager and the Transfer Agent from, among other things, engaging in transactions with, and the provision of services to, persons on the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons and persons, foreign countries and territories that are the subject of U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC² (collectively, the “OFAC Maintained Sanctions”).

(N)

The Trust prohibits the investment of funds by any persons or entities that are (i) the subject of OFAC Maintained Sanctions, (ii) acting, directly or indirectly, in contravention of any applicable laws and regulations, including anti-money laundering regulations or conventions, or on behalf of persons or entities subject to an OFAC Maintained Sanction, (iii) acting, directly or indirectly, for a senior foreign political figure, any member of a senior foreign political figure’s immediate family or any close associate of a senior foreign political figure, unless the Trust, after being specifically notified by the Investor in writing that it is such a person, conducts further due diligence, and determines that such investment shall be permitted, or (iv) acting, directly or indirectly, for a foreign shell bank³ (such persons or entities in (i) – (iv) are collectively referred to as “Prohibited Persons”).

²	This list may be accessed at xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxx/xxxxxxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxx/xxxxxxx/Xxxxx/Xxxxxx-xx-Xxxxxxx-Xxxxxx-Xxxxxxx.xxxx.

Generally speaking, a “foreign shell bank” means a foreign bank without a physical presence in any country, but does not include a regulated affiliate. A post office box or electronic address would not be considered a physical presence. A “regulated affiliate” means a foreign shell bank that: (1) is an affiliate of a depository institution, credit union, or foreign bank that maintains a physical presence in the United States or a foreign country, as applicable; and (2) is subject to supervision by a banking authority in the country regulating such affiliated depository institution, credit union, or foreign bank.

(P)

The Investor represents and warrants that, if it is an entity designated as a “financial institution” in the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act of 1970 as modified by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (generally including banks, trust companies, thrift institutions, agencies or branches of foreign banks, investment bankers, broker-dealers, investment companies, insurance companies, investment advisers, futures commission merchants, commodity trading advisors, and commodity pool operators), it has implemented and enforces an anti-money laundering program that is compliant with applicable law.

(Q)

The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Trust and/or the Transfer Agent may “freeze the account” of the Investor, including, but not limited to, prohibiting additional investments or suspending redemptions or payment of redemption proceeds if necessary to comply with anti-money laundering statutes or regulations.

(R)

The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Trust and/or the Transfer Agent, in complying with anti-money laundering statutes, regulations and goals, may file voluntarily and/or as required by law suspicious activity reports (“SARs”) or any other information with governmental and law enforcement agencies that identify transactions and activities that the Trust or the Transfer Agent or their agents reasonably determine to be suspicious, or is otherwise required by law.

If the Investor fails to comply with this paragraph, unless otherwise agreed by the Trust in writing the Investor agrees (together with all other Investors that fail to comply with similar requirements) to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust and the Investment Manager, or in each case any affiliate thereof, from and against any taxes (including interest, penalties, and additions), costs, expenses, or other losses or damages, arising out of such failure or failures, including any withholding tax imposed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code or any U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder or similar rules under other jurisdictions on any relevant entity and any withholding or other taxes imposed as a result of a transfer effected pursuant to this paragraph.

(X)

The Investment Manager may effect “cross” transactions between a Portfolio and other client accounts advised by the Investment Manager or its affiliates when appropriate and to the extent permitted by applicable law.
