obligations under or contemplated by this Agreement or the other
Transaction Documents in accordance with the terms hereof or
thereof. Neither the execution and delivery by the Company of the

any subsidiary is bound or to which any of their assets is subject,
except for any notice, consent or waiver the absence of which would
not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to

disclosed or that otherwise would have a Material Adverse

Company. The Company is not required to be registered as,
and is not an Affiliate of, and immediately following the Closing
will not be required to register as, an “investment
company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended.
(aa)
Reliance. The Company acknowledges that the Purchaser is relying on
the representations and warranties (as modified by the disclosures

4. Representations,
Warranties and Agreements of the Purchaser. The Purchaser
represents and warrants to the Company, as of the date hereof and
as of the date of the Closing the following:
(a) The Purchaser has
the knowledge and experience in financial and business matters
necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of its prospective
investment in the Company, and has carefully reviewed and
understands the risks of, and other considerations relating to, the
purchase of Securities and the tax consequences of the investment,
and has the ability to bear the economic risks of the investment.
The Purchaser can afford the loss of his, her or its entire
investment.
(b) The Purchaser (i)
if a natural person, represents that he or she is the greater of
(A) 21 years of age or (B) the age of legal majority in his or her
jurisdiction of residence, and has full power and authority to
execute and deliver this Agreement and all other related agreements
or certificates and to carry out the provisions hereof and thereof;
(ii) if a corporation, partnership, limited liability company,
association, joint stock company, trust, unincorporated
organization or other entity, represents that such entity was not
formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Securities, such
entity is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the state or jurisdiction of its organization,
the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby is
authorized by, and will not result in a violation of state law or
its charter or other organizational documents, such entity has full
power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and all
other related agreements or certificates and to carry out the
provisions hereof and thereof and to purchase and hold the
Securities, the execution and delivery of this Agreement has been
duly authorized by all necessary action, this Agreement has been
duly executed and delivered on behalf of such entity and is a
legal, valid and binding obligation of such entity; or (iii) if
executing this Agreement in a representative or fiduciary capacity,
represents that he, she or it has full power and authority to
execute and deliver this Agreement in such capacity and on behalf
of the subscribing individual, ward, partnership, trust, estate,
corporation, or limited liability company or partnership, or other

individual, partnership, ward, trust, estate, corporation, or
limited liability company or partnership, or other entity has full

The execution and delivery of this Agreement will not violate or be
in conflict with any order, judgment, injunction, agreement or
controlling document to which the Purchaser is a party or by which
it is bound.
(c) The Purchaser has
received, reviewed and understood the information about the
Company, including the SEC Reports, and has had an opportunity to
discuss the Company’s business, management and financial
affairs with the Company’s management. The Purchaser
understands that such discussions, as well as the SEC Reports, were
intended to describe the aspects of the Company’s business
and prospects and the Offering which the Company believes to be
material, but were not necessarily a thorough or exhaustive
description, and except as expressly set forth in this Agreement,
the Company makes no representation or warranty with respect to the
completeness of such information and makes no representation or
warranty of any kind with respect to any information provided by
any entity other than the Company. Some of such information may
include projections as to the future performance of the Company,
which projections may not be realized, may be based on assumptions
which may not be correct and may be subject to numerous factors
beyond the Company’s control. The Purchaser acknowledges that
he, she or it is not relying upon any person or entity, other than
the Company and its officers and directors, in making its
investment or decision to invest in the Company. Additionally, the
Purchaser understands and represents that he, she or it is
purchasing the Securities notwithstanding the fact that the Company
may disclose in the future certain material information the
Purchaser has not received, including (without limitation)
financial statements of the Company for the current or prior fiscal
periods, and any subsequent period financial statements that will
be filed with the SEC. Each Purchaser has sought such accounting,
legal and tax advice as the Purchaser has considered necessary to
make an informed investment decision with respect to his, her or
its acquisition of the Securities.
(d) The Purchaser
acknowledges that neither the Company nor the Advisor is acting as
a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Purchaser (or in any
similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and no investment
advice has been given by the Company, the Advisor or any of their
respective representatives or agents in connection with the
Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby. The Purchaser further represents to the Company that the
Purchaser’s decision to enter into the Transaction Documents
has been based solely on the independent evaluation by the
Purchaser and the Purchaser’s representatives.
(e) As of the Closing,
all actions on the part of Purchaser, and its officers, directors
and partners, if applicable, necessary for the authorization,
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of all
obligations of the Purchaser hereunder and thereunder shall have
been taken, and this Agreement, assuming due execution by the
parties hereto and thereto, constitute valid and legally binding
obligations of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with their
respective terms, subject to: (i) judicial principles limiting the
availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, and other
equitable remedies and (ii) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect
generally relating to or affecting creditors’
rights.
(f) Purchaser
represents that neither it nor, to its knowledge, any person or
entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with it,
nor any person having a beneficial interest in the Purchaser, nor
any person on whose behalf the Purchaser is acting: (i) is a person
listed in the Annex to Executive Order No. 13224 (2001) issued by
the President of the United States (Executive Order Blocking
Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit,
Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism); (ii) is named on the
List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons
maintained by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control; (iii) is a
non-U.S. shell bank or is providing banking services indirectly to
a non-U.S. shell bank; (iv) is a senior non-U.S. political figure
or an immediate family member or close associate of such figure; or
(v) is otherwise prohibited from investing in the Company pursuant
to applicable U.S. anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist and asset
control laws, regulations, rules or orders (categories (i) through
(v), each a “Prohibited
Purchaser”). The Purchaser agrees to provide the
Company, promptly upon request, all information that the Company
reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable
U.S. anti- money laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control laws,
regulations, rules and orders. The Purchaser consents to the
disclosure to U.S. regulators and law enforcement authorities by
the Company and its Affiliates and agents of such information about
the Purchaser as the Company reasonably deems necessary or
appropriate to comply with applicable U.S. anti-money laundering,
anti-terrorist and asset control laws, regulations, rules and
orders. If the Purchaser is a financial institution that is subject
to the USA Patriot Act, the Purchaser represents that it has met
all of its obligations under the USA Patriot Act. The Purchaser
acknowledges that if, following its investment in the Company, the
Company reasonably believes that the Purchaser is a Prohibited
Purchaser or is otherwise engaged in suspicious activity or refuses
to promptly provide information that the Company requests, the
Company has the right or may be obligated to prohibit additional
investments, segregate the assets constituting the investment in
accordance with applicable regulations or immediately require the
Purchaser to transfer the Securities. The Purchaser further
acknowledges that neither the Purchaser nor any of the
Purchaser’s Affiliates or agents will have any claim against
the Company for any form of damages as a result of any of the
foregoing actions.
(g) If the Purchaser is
Affiliated with a non-U.S. banking institution (a
“Foreign
Bank”), or if the Purchaser receives deposits from,
makes payments on behalf of, or handles other financial
transactions related to a Foreign Bank, the Purchaser represents
and warrants to the Company that: (1) the Foreign Bank has a fixed
address, other than solely an electronic address, in a country in
which the Foreign Bank is authorized to conduct banking activities;
(2) the Foreign Bank maintains operating records related to its
banking activities; (3) the Foreign Bank is subject to inspection
by the banking authority that licensed the Foreign Bank to conduct
banking activities; and (4) the Foreign Bank does not provide
banking services to any other Foreign Bank that does not have a
physical presence in any country and that is not a regulated
Affiliate.
(h) The Purchaser or
its duly authorized representative realizes that because of the
inherently speculative nature of businesses of the kind conducted
and contemplated by the Company, the Company’s financial
results may be expected to fluctuate from month to month and from
period to period and will, generally, involve a high degree of
financial and market risk that could result in substantial or, at
times, even total losses for investors in securities of the
Company. The Purchaser has carefully read the risk factors and
other information
(including the financial statements of the Company) included in the
SEC Reports. The Purchaser has carefully considered such risk
factors before deciding to invest in the Securities.
(i) The Purchaser has
adequate means of providing for its current and anticipated
financial needs and contingencies, is able to bear the economic
risk for an indefinite period of time and has no need for liquidity
of the investment in the Securities and could afford complete loss
of such investment.
(j) The Purchaser is
not subscribing for Securities as a result of or subsequent to any
advertisement, article, notice or other communication, published in
any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over
television, radio, or the internet, or presented at any seminar or
meeting, or any solicitation of a subscription by a person not
previously known to the Purchaser in connection with investments in
securities generally.
(k) The Purchaser
acknowledges that no U.S. federal or state agency or any other
government or governmental agency has passed upon the Securities or
made any finding or determination as to the fairness, suitability
or wisdom of any investments therein.
(l) Other than
consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder, the Purchaser
has not directly or indirectly, nor has any individual or entity
acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such
Purchaser, executed any purchases or sales, including Short Sales
(as defined below), of the securities of the Company during the
period commencing as of the time that such Purchaser first received
a term sheet (written or oral) from the Company or any other
individual or entity representing the Company setting forth the
material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder and
ending immediately prior to the execution hereof. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed
investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage
separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the
portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment
decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of
such Purchaser’s assets, the representation set forth above
shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by
the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase
the Securities covered by this Agreement. Other than to other
individuals or entities party to this Agreement, such Purchaser has
maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in
connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms
of this transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for avoidance
of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a
representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect
to the identification of the availability of, or securing of,
available shares to borrow in order to effect Short Sales or
similar transactions in the future. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Short
Sales” means all “short sales” as defined
in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act (but shall not
be deemed to include the location and/or reservation of borrowable
shares of Common Stock).
(m) The Purchaser is
aware that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the
Exchange Act may apply to sales of the Securities and other
activities with respect to the Securities by the
Purchaser.
(n) All of the
information concerning the Purchaser set forth herein, and any
other information furnished by the Purchaser in writing to the
Company or a Advisor for use in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, is true and correct in all material
respects as of the date of this Agreement, and, if there should be
any material change in such information prior to the
Purchaser’s purchase of the Securities, the Purchaser will
promptly furnish revised or corrected information to the
Company.
(o) The Purchaser has
reviewed with its own tax advisors the U.S. federal, state, local
and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. With
respect to such matters, such Purchaser relies solely on such
advisors and not on any statements or representations of the
Company or any of its agents, written or oral. The Purchaser
understands that it (and not the Company) shall be responsible for
its own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment
or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents.
(p) If the Purchaser is
not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), the Purchaser
hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full
observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any
invitation to subscribe for the Securities or any use of this
Agreement, including (a) the legal requirements within its
jurisdiction for the purchase of the Securities;
(dd) any
foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase; (c) any
governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained; and
(d) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be
relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of
the Securities. The Purchaser’s subscription and payment for
and continued beneficial ownership of the Securities will not
violate any applicable securities or other laws of the
Purchaser’s jurisdiction.
(q) (For ERISA plans only) If the Purchaser
is a fiduciary of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974 (“ERISA”)
plan (the “Plan”),
the Purchaser represents that (i) such fiduciary has been informed
of and understands the Company’s investment objectives,
policies and strategies, and that the decision to invest
“plan assets” (as such term is defined in ERISA) in the
Company is consistent with the provisions of ERISA that require
diversification of plan assets and impose other fiduciary
responsibilities; and (ii) the Purchaser fiduciary or Plan (a) is
responsible for the decision to invest in the Company; (b) is
independent of the Company or any of its Affiliates; (c) is
qualified to make such investment decision; and (d) in making such
decision, the Purchaser fiduciary or Plan has not relied primarily
on any advice or recommendation of the Company or any of its
Affiliates.
(r) Neither the
Purchaser nor, to the Purchaser’s knowledge, any of its
directors, executive officers, other officers that may serve as a
director or officer of any company in which it invests, general
partners or managing members is subject to any Disqualification
Events, except for Disqualification Events covered by Rule
506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) under the
Securities Act, and disclosed in writing in reasonable detail to
the Company.
(s) If the Purchaser is
an individual, then the Purchaser resides in the state or province
identified in the address of the Purchaser set forth on such
Purchaser’s Omnibus Signature Page to this Agreement; if the
Purchaser is a partnership, corporation, limited liability company
or other entity, then the office or offices of the Purchaser in
which its principal place of business is identified in the address
or addresses of the Purchaser set forth on such Purchaser’s
Omnibus Signature Page to this Agreement.

(a) The Company agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, and its directors,
officers, stockholders, members, partners, employees and agents
(and any other persons with a functionally equivalent role of a
person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or
any other title), each person who controls such Purchaser (within
the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of
the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, stockholders,
agents, members, partners or employees (and any other persons with
a functionally equivalent role of a person holding such titles
notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such
controlling person (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”),
from and against all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, costs,
fees and expenses whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any
and all expenses incurred in investigating, preparing or defending
against any litigation commenced or threatened) based upon or
arising out of the Company’s breach of any representation,
warranty or covenant contained herein; provided, however, that the
Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent and only
to the extent that any such loss, liability, claim, damage, cost,
fee or expense arises out of or is based upon the inaccuracy of any
representations made by such indemnified party in this Agreement,
or the failure of such indemnified party to comply with the
covenants and agreements contained herein. The liability of the
Company under this paragraph shall not exceed the total Purchase
Price paid by the Purchaser hereunder, except in the case of
fraud.
Promptly after
receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of
the commencement of any Action, such indemnified party will, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying
party under this Section 7, notify the indemnifying party in
writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify
the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which
it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this
Section 7 except to the extent the indemnified party is actually
prejudiced by such omission. In case any such Action is brought
against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying
party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be
entitled to participate therein, and to the extent that it may
elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly
after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party,
to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such
indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such
Action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying
party and either (i) the indemnifying party or parties and the
indemnified party or parties mutually agree or (ii) representation
of both the indemnifying party or parties and the indemnified party
or parties by the same counsel is inappropriate under applicable
standards of professional conduct due to actual or potential
differing interests between them, the indemnified party or parties
shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such
legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such
Action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt
of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of
its election so to assume the defense of such Action and approval
by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will
not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7 for
any reasonable legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by
such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof
unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed counsel in
connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with
the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood,
however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the
expenses of more than one separate counsel in such circumstance),
(ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel
satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified
party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the
Action or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the
employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of
the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall (i) without the
prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or
consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or
threatened Action in respect of which indemnification or
contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the
indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such Action)
unless such settlement, compromise or consent requires only the
payment of money damages, does not subject the indemnified party to
any continuing obligation or require any admission of criminal or
civil responsibility, and includes an unconditional release of each
indemnified party from all liability arising out of such Action, or
(ii) be liable for any settlement of any such Action effected
without its written consent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld), but if settled with its written consent or
if there be a final judgment of the plaintiff in any such Action,
the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any
indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason
of such settlement or judgment.
(b) Purchaser
acknowledges on behalf of itself and each Purchaser Indemnitee
that, other than for actions seeking specific performance of the
obligations under this Agreement or in the case of fraud, the sole
and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser and the Purchaser Indemnitee
with respect to any and all claims relating to this Agreement shall
be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this
Section 7.
8. Revocability;
Binding Effect. The subscription hereunder may be revoked
prior to the Closing thereon, provided that written notice of
revocation is sent and is received by the Company or the Advisor at
least one Business Day prior to the Closing on such subscription.
The Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement
shall survive the death or disability of the Purchaser and shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their
heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives
and permitted assigns. If the Purchaser is more than one person,
the obligations of the Purchaser hereunder shall be joint and
several and the agreements, representations, warranties and
acknowledgments herein shall be deemed to be made by and be binding
upon each such person and such person’s heirs, executors,
administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted
assigns. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Business
Day” means a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on
which banks in New York City are open for the general transaction
of business. Notwithstanding the foregoing revocation provisions,
in no case may a Purchaser revoke its purchase of Securities after
the Purchaser’s funds have been closed upon.
(a) Modification. This Agreement
shall not be amended, modified or waived except by an instrument in
writing signed by the Company and the holders of at least a
majority of the then Held Shares (as defined above). Any amendment,
modification or waiver effected in accordance with this Section
9(a) shall be binding upon the Purchaser and each transferee of the
Securities, each future holder of all such Securities, and the
Company.
(b) Third-Party Beneficiary. This
Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and
their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for
the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any
other Person, except as otherwise set forth in Section 7(a) and
this Section 9(c).
(c) Notices. Any notice, consents,
waivers or other communication required or permitted to be given
hereunder shall be in writing and will be deemed to have been
delivered: (i) upon receipt, when personally delivered; (ii) upon
receipt when sent by certified mail, return receipt requested,
postage prepaid; (iii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile

of this Agreement, in the place set forth on the Omnibus Signature

Purchaser’s Obligations and Rights. For avoidance of
doubt, the obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement are
several and not joint with the obligations of any other purchaser
under any other Subscription Agreement, and the Purchaser shall not
be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of
any other purchaser under any other Subscription Agreement. Nothing
contained herein and no action taken by the Purchaser shall be
deemed to constitute the Purchaser as a partnership, an
association, a joint venture, or any other kind of entity, or
create a presumption that the purchasers Subscription Agreements
are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such
obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
any other Subscription Agreements. The Purchaser shall be entitled
to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without
limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall
not be necessary for any other purchaser under any other
Subscription Agreement to be joined as an additional party in any
proceeding for such purpose.
