(c) PURCHASE FOR INVESTMENT. The Investor understands and agrees: (i) that the Investor must bear the economic risk of its investment until the termination of the Partnership; (ii) that the Interest has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and, therefore, cannot be resold or otherwise disposed of unless it is subsequently registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available; (iii) that the Partnership is not being registered as an "investment company" as the term "investment company" is defined in Section 3(a) of the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; (iv) that the Investor is purchasing the Interest for its own account and without a view towards distribution thereof; (v) that the Investor shall not resell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Interest purchased by the Investor, except as permitted by law, including, without limitation, any and all applicable provisions of the Partnership Agreement and any regulations under the Securities Act; (vi) that the transfer of the Interest and the substitution of another Limited Partner for the Investor are restricted by the terms of the Partnership Agreement; (vii) that the Partnership does not have any intention of registering the Partnership as an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act or of registering the Interest under the Securities Act or of supplying the information which may be necessary to enable the Investor to sell the Interest, except upon a request in compliance with Rule 1 44A(d)(4)(i) under the Securities Act; (viii) that neither the General Partner nor its partners nor any other person or entity selected by the General Partner to act as agent or adviser of the Partnership with respect to managing the affairs of the Partnership will be registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended; and (ix) that Rule 144 under the Securities Act may not be available as a basis for exemption from registration of any Interest. The Investor understands that there is no public or other market for the Interest, and it is not anticipated that such a market will ever develop. The Investor further understands that for the foregoing reasons, an Investor will be required to retain ownership of the Interest and bear the economic risk of this investment for an indefinite period of time. (d) FULL CONTRIBUTION. The Investor understands that, except as otherwise provided in the Partnership Agreement, the Investor may not make less than the full amount of any required capital contribution, and that default provisions with respect thereto, pursuant to which the Investor may lose a material portion of its investment in the Partnership, are contained in the Partnership Agreement.

For purposes of this Section 2(i), the following definitions shall apply: "Committed capital" includes all amounts which have been contributed to the Investor by its shareholders, partners or other equity holders plus all amounts which such persons remain obligated to contribute to it.

If the Investor has utilized a purchaser representative, the Investor has previously given the Partnership notice in writing of such fact, specifying that such representative would be acting as the Investor's "purchaser representative" as defined in Rule 501(h) of Regulation D under the Securities Act. (m) NO VIEW TO TAX BENEFITS. The Investor is not acquiring the Interest with a view to realizing any benefits under United States federal income tax laws, and no representations have been made to the Investor that any such benefits will be available as a result of the Investor's acquisition, ownership or disposition of the Interest.
