You. The individual or entity subscribing for Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

b. This Subscription Agreement consists of all Sections and Appendices included herewith.

2. Capital Commitment. You agree to purchase Shares for an aggregate purchase price equal to your requested capital commitment to the Company that is accepted by the Company (“Commitment”) under the terms and conditions set forth herein. You agree to purchase Shares (up to the amount of your Undrawn Commitment, as defined below) each time the Company delivers a drawdown notice, which will be delivered in respect of such Commitment at least 5 business days (as defined in Rule 14d-1 of the Exchange Act (“Business Days”) (measured from the date the Company sends such notice by mail or electronically, as applicable, rather than the date such notice is received) prior to the required funding date (the “Drawdown Date”)). New Shares will be issued on each Drawdown Date in respect of such drawdown.

a. The first date on which the Company accepts capital commitments to purchase Shares is referred to as the “Initial Closing Date.” The first date on which investors are required to initially fund their capital commitment to purchase Shares is referred to herein as the “Initial Drawdown Date.”

b. On the first date on which we issue Shares (the “Initial Issuance Date”), such Shares will be issued at a price per share of $20. Shares issued following such initial issuance will generally be issued at a per share price equal to the then-current net-asset-value (“NAV”) per share. For purposes of this calculation, the NAV per Share will be based on the NAV per Share calculated at the end of the most recent calendar month prior to the applicable Last Funding Date (as defined below), subject to adjustments for material changes and the limitations of Section 23 under the Investment Company Act (which generally prohibits the Company from issuing Shares at a price below the then-current NAV of Shares as determined within 48 hours, excluding Sundays and holidays, of such issuance, subject to certain exceptions).

c. If you make a Commitment after the Initial Drawdown Date, you agree to bear a portion of Organizational Expenses (as defined below) on or prior to the time of your first Drawdown Date.

d. The Company may hold, and expects to hold, a number of closings subsequent to the Initial Closing Date (each date on which a subsequent closing is held, a “Subsequent Closing Date”). The final Subsequent Closing Date will occur no later than 24 months

following the Initial Closing Date (the “Final Closing Date”); provided that the Board of Directors may extend the Final Closing Date by up to an additional six month period in its discretion.

e. If your Commitment is accepted on any Subsequent Closing Date, you shall be required to purchase from us, on no less than 5 Business Days’ prior notice, a number of Shares with an aggregate purchase price necessary to ensure that, upon payment of the aggregate purchase price for such Shares, your Net Contributed Capital Percentage (as defined below) shall be equal to the Net Contributed Capital Percentage of each prior investor (other than any Defaulting Shareholders (as defined below) or investors who subscribed on prior Subsequent Closing Dates and have not yet funded the Adjusted Purchase Price) (the “Adjusted Purchase Price”). Such Shares may be required to be purchased on any date on or following the applicable Subsequent Closing Date and on or prior to the next Drawdown Date (any such date, a “Catch-Up Date”). Any investor increasing its Commitment on any Subsequent Closing Date shall be treated as if it were making a new Commitment to the Company.

f. “Net Contributed Capital” means, with respect to a Shareholder, (i) the aggregate amount of funding of capital commitments that has been made by such Shareholder in respect of purchases of Shares less (ii) the aggregate amount of distributions categorized as Returned Capital (as defined in the Memorandum) made by the Company to such Shareholder in respect of such Shareholder’s Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, Net Contributed Capital shall not take into account distributions of the Company’s investment income (i.e. proceeds received in respect of interest payments, dividends or fees) to the Shareholders. “Net Contributed Capital Percentage” means, with respect to a Shareholder, the percentage determined by dividing such Shareholder’s Net Contributed Capital by such Shareholder’s Commitment.

g. Upon payment of the Adjusted Purchase Price on a Catch-Up Date, the number of Shares issuable to you will equal: (x) the Adjusted Purchase Price for such investor, minus the Organizational Expense Allocation, divided by (y) the then- current NAV. “Organizational Expense Allocation” means, with respect to a Shareholder, the product obtained by multiplying (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is such Shareholder’s Commitment and the denominator of which is the total Commitments received by the Company to date (including such Shareholder’s Commitment), by (ii) the lesser of (a) a dollar amount equal to $500,000 or (b) the total amount of Organizational Expenses incurred by the Company. “Organizational Expenses” means expenses incurred in respect of legal services pertaining to the Company’s organization and formation and any

administration, custody and transfer agent agreements, the performance of any research and consultation services in connection with the initial meeting of Directors, and audit fees relating to the initial registration statement and auditing the initial seed capital financial statements.

h. In connection with each Drawdown Date following any Subsequent Closing Date, all investors, including investors whose Commitments were accepted on such Subsequent Closing Date, shall purchase Shares in accordance with the standard provisions for Drawdown Dates described below, subject in all cases to the Company’s right to limit issuances of Shares in order to comply with applicable law, including ERISA.

3. Drawdown Dates. You agree that, for each Drawdown Date, you shall purchase a number of Shares equal to the Drawdown Share Amount (as defined below) at an aggregate price equal to the Drawdown Purchase Price (as defined below); provided, however, that in no circumstance will you be required to purchase Shares for an amount in excess of your Undrawn Commitment.

a. “Drawdown Purchase Price” shall mean, for each Drawdown Date with respect to an investor, an amount in U.S. dollars determined by multiplying (i) the aggregate amount of Commitments being drawn down by the Company from all investors on that Drawdown Date by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Undrawn Commitment of such investor and the denominator of which is the aggregate Undrawn Commitments of all investors that are not Defaulting Shareholders.

b. “Drawdown Share Amount” shall mean, for each Drawdown Date with respect to an investor, a number of Shares determined by dividing (i) the Drawdown Purchase Price for that Drawdown Date with respect to such investor by (ii) the NAV per Share as of the applicable Last Funding Date (or, in the case of the Initial Drawdown Date, $20 per Share).

c. “Undrawn Commitment” shall mean, with respect to a Shareholder, the amount of such Shareholder’s Commitment as of any date reduced by the aggregate amount of contributions made by that Shareholder at all previous Drawdown Dates and Catch-Up Dates, and increased by the aggregate amount of Returned Capital received by that Shareholder.

d. You waive any counterclaim to, and any right to any setoff or reduction of, your obligation to make capital calls to the Company based on any claim that you have against any person (without prejudice to your right to assert such claim in a separate action).

e. You shall be deemed to have reaffirmed, as of the date on which you fund any future capital call, each and every representation and warranty made, and all information provided, by you in this Subscription Agreement or that is incorporated by reference.

4. Default. You acknowledge and agree that, if you fail to purchase Shares as part of a capital call or other required payment to the Company, in part or in full, and such failure remains uncured for a period of 5 calendar days following the applicable Drawdown Date (such fifth day, the “Last Funding Date”), you shall be delinquent in your obligations. Any payments made pursuant to a capital call by you after the applicable Last Funding Date will be applied to purchase Shares at the next available NAV. With respect to the subsequent capital call with respect to such delinquent Shareholder, such delinquent Shareholder will be obligated, in addition to purchasing Shares in respect of such subsequent capital call, to purchase Shares in an amount equal to such unfulfilled capital call or other required payment in respect of the prior Last Funding Date, and to the extent such Shareholder does not so, he, she or it will be delinquent again in its obligations. If a Shareholder is delinquent in funding a required drawdown upon three occasions at any point during the Investment Period (occasions do not have to be consecutive), such Shareholder (any such Shareholder, a “Defaulting Shareholder”) will be in default of its obligations to us and the following remedies shall be imposed on such Shareholder: (a) the Defaulting Shareholder shall be prohibited from purchasing any additional Shares or participating in any future capital calls of the Company; and (b) twenty-five percent (25%) of the Shares then held by the Defaulting Shareholder shall be automatically cancelled or forfeited, without any further action being required by the Company or the Defaulting Shareholder (which would result in a corresponding increase in the NAV per Share of the Shares held by the Shareholders, including the Defaulting Shareholder) . The mechanism described in this section is intended to operate as a liquidated damages provision, since the damage to other Shareholders resulting from a default by the Defaulting Shareholder is both significant and not easily susceptible to precise quantification. By purchasing Shares, each Shareholder agrees to these provisions and acknowledges that they constitute reasonable liquidated damages remedies for any default in the Shareholder’s obligation of the type described.

5. Subscription. You hereby agree that (a) you are subscribing for the Shares indicated in your Subscription Agreement in the aggregate amount equal to your Commitment, and (b) your subscription in respect thereof shall become effective and final, and you shall become legally bound, only upon the acceptance of such subscription, in whole or in part, by the Company. Unless otherwise communicated to you by Goldman Sachs, including potentially through the Memorandum, your subscription will be deemed accepted by the Company upon the earlier of the following: (a) the

execution of a counterpart signature page to this Subscription Agreement by or on behalf of the Company (including by Goldman Sachs) and (b) two business days prior to the time Shares are first issued to you. You acknowledge and agree that if your subscription to purchase such Shares is accepted in whole or in part, (a) you will, with no further action on your part, become a Shareholder, (b) you agree with the Manager, with the other Shareholders of the Company and with other subscribers admitted to the Company either at or after the date of your admission that, with effect from such admission, you and such persons will be bound by and will comply with the provisions, terms and obligations of an investment in the Company as described in the Memorandum and the Fund Agreement with the same effect as if you were a signatory to those documents, and (c) you will be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to purchase Shares, at the times and as contemplated by the Fund Agreement and the Memorandum, in a total amount equal to the amount of the accepted portion of the “Total Commitment” listed in this Subscription Agreement.

6. Legal Capacity; Updating Information About You. You acknowledge, represent and warrant to, and agree with the Company and GS as follows. You are duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of your jurisdiction of organization. You have the capacity to purchase Shares pursuant to your organizational documents. You have satisfied any additional or different suitability standards imposed by your state of residence or imposed by any other applicable laws, and you have complied with and will comply with all laws relating to your acquisition and ownership of Shares. You have all powers, have taken all required action, and are duly authorized (a) to execute, deliver and perform this Subscription Agreement, the Fund Agreement and any other agreement that you are entering into in connection with your subscription for Shares and (b) to purchase and hold any Shares. Such documents have been duly executed and delivered by you or GS as attorney-in-fact for you and constitute your legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable against you in accordance with their terms. At the request of GS, you agree to provide written evidence, reasonably satisfactory to GS, of all such powers, actions and authorizations (including copies of your organizational and governing documents). If such documents are not in English, you may be required, before or after your subscription, to provide English language translations of such documents. You represent that any such translation is an accurate translation. You represent and warrant that your organizational and governing documents provided to GS are complete and accurate as of the date of your admission to the Company and no provision in such documents would prohibit any action contemplated by, or otherwise conflict with,

the Memorandum or Fund Agreement. You agree to provide any information that the Company may reasonably request in order to verify that you satisfy the requirements of an investor in the Company and the accuracy of the information provided by you in this Subscription Agreement. You agree to provide any information, certifications and representations that the Company may reasonably request or require in order to comply with applicable United States or non-United States laws, including tax laws, or to reduce any United States or non-United States tax that may be imposed on the Company or any investor in the Company. In addition, you agree to update such information, certifications and representations if and when any such information, certifications and representations are no longer true or correct and to provide any additional true and correct information, certifications and representations required pursuant to any change in law, or the application or interpretation thereof. If you do not provide (or appropriately update) any such true and correct information, certifications and representations with respect to the Company or the Shares in which you own, the Company may redeem your entire Shares in accordance with the Memorandum. The individual signing this Subscription Agreement represents that he or she has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Subscription Agreement in such capacity and on your behalf and you represent that they possess the requisite power and authority to sign on your behalf. You agree to promptly notify the Company if there is any change with respect to any of your information, representations or warranties contained herein, including without limitation any information, representation or warranty incorporated by reference, and to provide such further information as the Company may reasonably request. You hereby agree that, in the event you are provided with written confirmation of the acceptance of your subscription and such confirmation contains any incorrect information regarding you or your subscription, you will promptly notify GS. You hereby represent, warrant and agree you are subscribing for Shares solely for your own account, risk and beneficial and economic interest, as an investor, and not as an agent, trustee, nominee, investment manager or representative or in a similar agency capacity (a “Nominee”) for or on behalf of any other individual or entity person. You understand that the Company will not accept any Subscription Agreement submitted by you in a Nominee capacity, will not recognize any principal (disclosed or undisclosed) other than you and will hold you responsible for all representations, warranties, covenants and other obligations in this Subscription Agreement.

7. Company’s Sole Discretion to Accept Subscription. You understand and agree that the Company reserves the right, in its absolute discretion, to reject this subscription in whole or in part, in any order

(relative to other subscribers), at any time prior to the Admission Date (as defined below) notwithstanding prior receipt by you of notice of acceptance of your subscription. This subscription is subject to allotment before or after acceptance. Admission Date is the date the Company has accepted your subscription for a Share.

8. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. You acknowledge, represent and warrant to, and agree with the Company and GS as follows:

a. Acknowledgement of Offering Information. You have read and fully understand the Memorandum, the Fund Agreement, this Subscription Agreement and the Disqualified Person Disclosure, including without limitation the default provisions of the Memorandum and this Subscription Agreement. You have received adequate information concerning all matters which you consider material to a decision to purchase the Shares. You have been given the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, GS and the Company, concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and other matters pertaining to your investment in the Shares, and you have been given the opportunity to obtain such additional information necessary to verify the accuracy of the information contained in the Memorandum. You understand that you may be subject to additional or different fees than those described in the Memorandum. You have not been furnished with any offering literature or prospectus except the Memorandum or except as mentioned in this paragraph, and you have only received the Memorandum from a person with whom you have a substantive pre-existing relationship (i.e., this person is aware of your financial experience and sophistication, and your ability to evaluate the merits and risks of the proposed investment in the Company). You understand that this Subscription Agreement does not constitute an offer by the Company or GS to sell a Share to you. No representations or agreements other than those set forth in the Memorandum have been made to you in respect thereto. You represent and warrant that you are capable of evaluating investment risks independently, including with regard to transactions and investment strategies involving the Shares, and have exercised independent judgment (and have relied solely upon the Memorandum, the advice of your tax, legal or other advisers and independent investigations made by you) in purchasing the Shares. You are not relying on GS, the Manager, the Company, any placement agent or the references to any legal opinion in the Memorandum with respect to individual, partnership or corporate tax and other economic considerations involved in this investment. You understand that counsel to the Company may also serve as counsel to GS and its affiliates. You understand that in connection with the offering of Shares and subsequent advice to the Company (including transactions or

litigation involving the Company), counsel to the Company will not be representing investors in the Company, including you, and no independent counsel has been retained by the Company to represent the investors in the Company.

b. No Registration under Securities Laws. You understand and acknowledge that the Shares have not been registered and may not be registered under the Securities Act, securities laws of any state or territory of the United States, or applicable laws of any non-US jurisdiction and that this subscription, the Shares offered, and the offering have not been approved, disapproved or passed on by any US federal or state regulatory agency or commission, securities or commodities exchange or non-US regulatory agency or other self-regulatory organization. This subscription is being made privately by the Company pursuant to the private placement exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D or Regulation S thereunder (as applicable). You understand that the Company will not register as an Investment Company under the Investment Company Act.

c. Restrictions on Holding of Shares. The Shares subscribed for will be acquired by you solely for your account as principal, solely for investment, and are not being purchased for subdivision, resale or distribution, or for the direct or indirect account or benefit of any other person or entity. You have no existing or contemplated agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, exchange, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Shares. You will not sell, exchange, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Shares or any portion thereof without (1) compliance with the Memorandum, (2) registration under the Securities Act and applicable state laws (or an exemption therefrom supported by an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company to the effect that registration is not required), and

(3) the prior written consent of the Company. You understand that you must solely bear the economic risk of any of your investments in the Company for an indefinite period of time because the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities laws. You understand that the Company has no obligation to, and does not intend to, register the Shares on your behalf or to assist you in complying with any exemption from registration under the Securities Act or under any other applicable securities laws.

d. Financial Sophistication; Ability to Bear Risk. You have such knowledge and experience in financial and investment matters, and in illiquid investments in particular, and in other business matters that you are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares without the assistance of a Purchaser Representative

(as such term is defined in the Securities Act). Your financial condition is such that you have no need for liquidity with respect to your investment in the Shares and no need to dispose of the Shares to satisfy any existing or contemplated undertaking or indebtedness. Your overall commitment to investments that are not readily marketable is proportionate to your net worth and will not become excessive as a result of an investment in the Company. You have numerous investment opportunities available to you, you are not required or obligated in any way to make an investment in the Shares, and you have chosen to invest in the Shares over or in addition to such other investment opportunities. You can bear a complete loss of your investment in the Company, and such a loss would not materially adversely affect your capital needs.

e. Nature of Shares. You acknowledge, understand and agree that: (1) the Shares are speculative investments which involve a high degree of risk of loss; (2) no government agency has passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of the information in the Memorandum or made any determination as to the fairness of the investment, or any recommendation or endorsement of the investment; (3) you are not dependent upon a current cash return with respect to your investment in the Company; (4) transfer of the Shares is subject to substantial restrictions; (5) you may not enter into any hedging arrangement with respect to the Shares or a swap, structured note or other derivative instrument, the return from which is based in whole or in part on the return of the Company, with any third party, in each case without the Company’s prior written consent and without compliance with all applicable law, including the Securities Act; (6) no person acting on the Company’s behalf offered to sell you the Shares by means of any form of general solicitation or advertising, such as media advertising or public seminars; (7) the Company will have significant transaction and other costs, regardless of whether it realizes profits; (8) the amount of your subscription will be contributed to the Company; (9) there are risks and potential conflicts of interest involved in the structure and operation of the Company as described in the Memorandum; and (10) past results of the Company or its investment manager are not indicative of future results or profits, and no representations to the contrary have been made.

f. Transactions with GS.

(i) You understand and agree that the Manager, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, may allow the Company and, if applicable, any investment funds or vehicles in which the Company invests, to enter into, consent to and perform transactions in which affiliates of the Manager, including GS, act as principal or agent. Such transactions may include, but are not limited

to, (1) any cross transaction in which the Manager causes the Company or any investment fund or vehicle in which the Company invests to buy a security from, or sell a security to another client of the Manager or its affiliates and any agency cross transaction in which GS acts as a broker for both the Company or such underlying fund or vehicle and a brokerage account on the other side of the transaction in connection with the purchase or sale of securities and in which GS may receive compensation, commissions, or other payments from either or both parties and, with respect to cross transactions and agency cross transactions, GS may have a potentially conflicting division of loyalties and responsibilities among such parties; (2) any principal transaction in which the Company or any investment fund or vehicle in which the Company invests purchases property (including, without limitation, securities) from or sells property (including, without limitation, securities) to GS; (3) any principal transaction in which GS acts as counterparty with or to the Company or any investment fund or vehicle in which the Company invests in respect of currency, hedging or derivative financial instruments (including but not limited to swaps and forwards of all types); or (4) any sale of securities for the account of the Company or any investment fund or vehicle in which the Company invests by GS, including where such securities are bunched or aggregated with orders for other accounts of GS and such aggregation prevents achievement of the same price or execution on the entire lot, which may be disadvantageous to the Company or such underlying fund or vehicle. You understand that the foregoing authorization and consent to principal transactions, cross transactions and agency cross transactions may be revoked by you in the manner set forth in the Fund Agreement or Memorandum, or in such other manner as the Company or the Manager notifies you from time to time.

(ii) To the extent permitted by applicable law, in respect of matters described in the next sentence in which the Company may engage and which may require approval on behalf of the Company or with respect to which the Manager determines to seek approval, you hereby authorize the Company and/or the Manager without limitation, to consider and approve or disapprove such transactions and other matters on behalf of the Company and its investors. Such transactions or other matters may include the following, but in any event only with respect to any particular transaction or other matter that the Manager determines in its sole discretion to consider: (a) any transaction in which the Company proposes to purchase or sell securities and which, as a result of participation (directly or indirectly) by GS in respect of such transaction, requires consent under the Investment Advisers Ac any fee paid to GS in respect of a transaction in which the Company proposes to be an investor and which, as a result of the participation by GS, requires consent

under the Investment Advisers Act, (c) any other transaction or matter for which prior consent or other consent may be required under the Investment Advisers Act, and (d) any other transaction or matter which the Manager determines to consider itself which may include, without limitation, transactions involving possible conflicts of interest.

(iii) You acknowledge and agree that the Manager of the Company treats the Company as its client for all purposes permitted under the Investment Advisers Act, the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended, and other applicable laws and regulations to the extent permitted thereunder. This means that required disclosures by the investment manager (e.g., those in its Form ADV) are made to the Company, not to the Shareholders, and that any necessary consents (e.g., to transactions in which the investment manager’s affiliates act as principal or as a broker) may be given by the Manager on behalf of the Company and its Shareholders.

(iv) You acknowledge that you have read and understand the “Potential Conflicts of Interest” disclosure and the “Related Party Transactions and Certain Relationships” disclosure set forth in the Memorandum.

g. Restrictions on Transfers

(i) If you are treated for US federal income tax purposes as a grantor trust under Sections 671-679 of the IRS Code or a “disregarded entity” within the meaning of US Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-2(c), you acknowledge and agree that the person treated for US federal income tax purposes as the owner of your Shares is subject to the transfer restrictions with respect to any indirect transfer of your Shares, as set forth in this Subscription Agreement and in the Fund Agreement, as if he, she or it had owned your Shares directly. For these purposes, without limitation, (A) a transfer by the person treated for US federal income tax purposes as the owner of your Shares, and (B) a change in the federal tax status of the grantor trust or disregarded entity, which is treated as a transfer for US federal income tax purposes of the assets of a grantor trust or the disregarded entity, are transfers of a Shares that are subject to the restrictions on transfers of Shares and are prohibited, except as set forth in this Subscription Agreement and in the Fund Agreement.

(ii) If you are not treated for US federal income tax purposes as a grantor trust under Sections 671-679 of the IRS Code or a “disregarded entity” within the meaning of US Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-2(c), you agree and acknowledge that any conversion of your tax status to such a grantor trust or disregarded entity and any subsequent indirect transfers of your Shares will be subject to the terms of clause (i) of this subparagraph g.

h. Tax Forms and Tax Reporting. You hereby certify that the IRS Form W-9 (or substitute Form W-9) or applicable IRS Form W-8 provided to GS with this Subscription Agreement, or previously provided to GS, is true and correct as of the date hereof, and you hereby (A) agree to provide an updated IRS Form W-9 or Form W-8, as applicable, upon any such form previously provided by you no longer being true and correct or upon the expiration of any such form previously provided, and (B) authorize and direct GS to deliver such form to the Company.

i. Absence of Changes; Additional Information; Authorization to Make Changes to the Form of Subscription Agreement and Other Documents. You represent and warrant that you have not altered or modified the form of this Subscription Agreement that was provided to you, except to insert information where indicated by this Subscription Agreement or except as agreed to by the Company. You hereby acknowledge that, on the date hereof, you have reviewed (1) if applicable, all of the information submitted to the Company by your beneficial owners or equity owners or on behalf of your beneficial owners or equity owners, and (2) all other information provided by you to Company in connection with your purchase of the Shares hereunder; and you agree that such information is incorporated herein by reference, and that such information is true and correct.

You agree that GS and the Company’s other service providers may, and you hereby authorize GS and the Company’s other service providers to, complete, change or correct on your behalf all documents (including this Subscription Agreement) executed by you in connection with your subscription to the Company, including, without limitation, filling in, changing or amending amounts, dates, or other pertinent information or changing or providing answers to the questions contained in this Subscription Agreement or related documents, in each case, based upon written or verbal instructions from you, and you hereby agree that you will be bound by the terms of any such document as so modified.

You understand that the Company, GS and their service providers and affiliates will rely on the information provided by you in connection with your purchase of the Shares, including all updates to and changes in such information as may be provided by you hereafter.

j. CFTC/NFA Status. You represent that you are not required to be registered with the CFTC or to be a member of the NFA pursuant to the Commodity Exchange Act and the rules of the CFTC and you have complied with all conditions of any applicable exclusion or exemption, or, that if you are so required, that you are duly registered with the CFTC and are a member in good standing of the NFA. In addition, you represent that any information and/or documentation that you have provided to GS in addition to this Subscription Agreement regarding your CFTC and NFA status remains true and correct.

settlement due date) or in any other document furnished by you to any Indemnified Party in connection with this transaction, you will reimburse on demand the Indemnified Parties for their legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation and preparation) incurred in connection therewith regardless of the outcome. You will also indemnify the Indemnified Parties against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which any of them may become subject in connection with any such matter or in connection with your failure to provide true and correct information or to otherwise comply with the provisions of paragraph 6 above. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Party, or is insufficient to hold it harmless, then you will contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by you on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other but also the relative fault of you and the Indemnified Party upon the finding of a court of competent jurisdiction.

Party will be entitled to indemnification in respect of penalties, interest on penalties and professional fees and disbursements incurred as a result of the gross negligence, willful malfeasance, bad faith or criminal wrongdoing of such Indemnified Party.

The terms of this paragraph 14 shall apply indefinitely to information related to the Company unless disclosure is required by applicable law or regulation (including pursuant to a subpoena or other legal process) or ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction, or such information has become publicly available other than as a result of any breach of this Subscription Agreement by you or any person to whom you have disclosed such information.

You hereby represent and warrant that, except as disclosed to the Manager and the Company in writing, you are not subject to any law, governmental rule, regulation or legal process in any jurisdiction (including, without limitation, lawsuits, subpoenas administrative proceedings or the US Freedom of Information Act, or any comparable laws or regulations of any US or non-US jurisdiction) requiring you to disclose (on receipt of a request to do so or otherwise) any information relating to the Company or your investment in the Company (collectively, “Disclosure Laws”).

Upon your receipt of requests, pursuant to a Disclosure Law, if applicable, or if you are otherwise compelled by law or legal process, to make public disclosure of information relating to the Company, you shall (i) immediately send written notice to the Company (copied to the Manager) of the request, so that the Company and/or the Manager may consult with you as to the exact disclosure obligation to which you are subject, and take any action legally available to the Company or the Manager under the laws and regulations of the relevant jurisdiction and (ii) furnish only that portion of the requested information that is legally required and use your best efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment is accorded to that information.

The right of the Company to cause the sale, transfer, repurchase or redemption of your Shares as set forth in the preceding sentence shall be in addition to, and shall not prejudice, any right of the Company and/or the Manager set forth in this Subscription Agreement, the Fund Agreement or the Memorandum to compulsorily sell, transfer, repurchase or redeem your Shares.

You further agree that the Manager may, in its sole discretion, keep confidential and not disclose to you or any other person any information relating to the Company (including, but not limited to, information that you or any other person would be required to disclose pursuant to applicable Disclosure Laws were you or such person to receive such information) if the Manager determines in its sole discretion that the disclosure of such information is not in the best interest of the Company or could damage the Company or its business, or if the Company is required by law or by agreement with a third party to keep such information confidential.

For purposes of this paragraph 14 and paragraph 15 below, “information relating to the Company” shall be construed broadly and shall include, without limitation, any information furnished to, or otherwise obtained from the Manager or your Financial Advisor by, you in respect of the Shares for which you are subscribing pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, including, without limitation, information regarding any other Shareholder (including their identity), information regarding existing, past, or prospective direct or indirect investments made by or other investment positions and trading activities and strategies of and/or transactions effected directly or indirectly for the Company, the Company’s financial reports and correspondence with its Shareholders, and the terms of this Subscription Agreement, the Memorandum or any other agreement entered into between you or your affiliates and the Company, the Manager, your Financial Advisor, any other distributor or placement agent or their respective affiliates.

You acknowledge and agree that: (i) the Company and the Manager would suffer irreparable injury if you were to violate any provision of this paragraph 14 and monetary damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any such violation and (ii) that in the event that you breach or threaten to breach any provision of this paragraph 14, in addition to any other remedies available to the Company in respect of any such breach, the Company and/or the Manager shall be entitled to obtain an immediate permanent injunction against such breach and other

equitable relief to enforce any and all of the provisions of this paragraph 14 and that you will not oppose the granting of such relief. The remedies afforded to the Company and the Manager by this paragraph 14 shall be in addition to any and all other remedies available to the Company and the Manager resulting from your violation, breach or threatened breach of this Subscription Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement or the Memorandum, except as reasonably necessary to comply with applicable securities laws, you (and your employees, representatives or other agents) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the offering and ownership of the Shares (including the tax treatment and tax structure of any Company transactions) and all materials of any kind (including opinions and other tax analyses) that are provided to you relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. For this purpose, “tax structure” means any facts relevant to the US federal or state income tax treatment of (a) the offering and ownership of the Shares and (b) any transactions by the Company, and does not include information relating to the identity of the Company or its affiliates. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to require the Manager to disclose to you any information that the Manager is permitted or is required to keep confidential in accordance with this Subscription Agreement, the Memorandum or otherwise.

You acknowledge that the Company, the Manager or its affiliates and/or service providers to or agents of the Company or the Manager may from time to time be required or may, in their sole discretion, determine that it is advisable to disclose certain information about the Company and its Shareholders including, but not limited to, investments held by the Company or the names and levels of beneficial ownership of Shareholders, to (i) regulatory authorities of certain jurisdictions, which have or assert jurisdiction over the disclosing party or in which the Company directly or indirectly invests, or (ii) any counterparty of or service provider to the Manager or the Company, and you hereby consent to such disclosure.

15. Reports; Information.

a. You acknowledge and agree that:

(i) The Company and/or the Manager may provide you and other Shareholders with information relating to the Company in addition to information that is required to be delivered by the Memorandum or applicable law (“Additional Information”);

(ii) Additional Information is provided by the Company and/or the Manager in its sole discretion, and the Company and/or the Manager may cease to provide such information relating to the Company at any time without prior notice;

(iii) Although the Company and/or the Manager shall act in good faith in preparing Additional Information (which preparation will be limited as described herein), any Additional Information that is provided to you (a) may be based on estimated data (including, if applicable, estimated data provided by any underlying funds in which the Company invests) that will not reflect reconciliation with records of the Company’s (or any underlying fund’s) custodian and/or administrator, as applicable, and (b) may not reflect the accrual of certain expenses and liabilities of the Company (or any underlying fund in which the Company invests, if applicable), including, without limitation, fees and performance-based compensation payable by the Company. Accordingly, any valuations or returns provided in any Additional Information may be preliminary, estimated and unaudited, and will be subject to high levels of uncertainty. Actual returns may vary significantly from such estimated returns and should not be construed as providing any assurance or guarantee as to actual returns;

(iv) Neither the Company nor the Manager makes any representation as to the accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose or timeliness of any Additional Information that is provided to you, and you accept liability for any loss you suffer as a result of reliance upon any such Additional Information; and

(v) Shares will only be issued, and redemptions or withdrawals will only be made, if applicable to such Company, on the basis of the Company’s official net asset value and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Memorandum and not on the basis of information set forth in any other Additional Information.

b. To the extent that any report or information relating to the Company received by you contains details of any investment positions, trading strategies or techniques of the Company or the investment processes of the Manager, you shall not, and shall cause each person to whom you have disclosed information relating to the Company pursuant to paragraph 14 not to, use such information as a basis for effecting or replicating any transactions, or for any purpose other than for your analysis of the performance of the Manager and/or the Company, of the Company’s compatibility with other investments you may hold, or for any other similar purpose for which you have specifically requested, and obtained, the written agreement of the Manager. Without limiting the foregoing, you represent and warrant that you have proper protocols in place, or will adopt such protocols, to ensure that information relating to the Company will be protected against dissemination to other entities, or other groups, divisions and/or persons within your organization, including, but not limited to, persons that are involved in portfolio management decisions or any other entity,

group, division and/or person within your organization that may use information relating to the Company in a manner other than for purposes of managing the investment in the Company. You agree that no person who has access to information relating to the Company can use such information for trading purposes. For the avoidance of doubt, for Subscribers that are fund-of-funds, portfolio management divisions do not include the fund-of-funds division managing the investment in the Company.

16. Disqualified Person Status.

Except as disclosed in your response to question 11 and any additional information requested by GS, no Disqualifying Event exists with respect to you or any person that directly or indirectly will have voting or dispositive power over your interest in the Company. You agree to provide any Company to which you are subscribing pursuant to this Subscription Agreement any information that the Company may reasonably request in order to determine whether you or any person that directly or indirectly has voting or dispositive power over your interest in the Company is a Disqualified Person, including, without limitation, filings with, and records of, courts and regulators. You agree to provide the Company any information that the Company may reasonably request in connection with the Company’s compliance with section (e) of Rule 506 of the Securities Act. You further agree that the Company may disclose to investors and prospective investors in the Company (i) information provided by you in your response to question 11 and any other information that you provide in connection therewith and (ii) any other information that the Company determines is necessary to disclose in connection with its obligations under section (e) of Rule 506 of the Securities Act, including without limitation, the identities of you and any person that directly or indirectly has voting or dispositive power over your interest in the Company. You agree to promptly notify the Company if a Disqualifying Event occurs with respect to you or any person that directly or indirectly has voting or dispositive power over your interest in the Company. You further agree that if any Disqualifying Event occurs or has occurred with respect to you or any person that directly or indirectly will have voting or dispositive power over your interest in the Company on or after September 23, 2013, if you or any person that directly or indirectly will have voting power over your interest in the Company would otherwise have the right to vote more than 20% of the Company’s outstanding voting equity securities (calculated on the basis of voting power), notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Company Agreement, the voting rights with respect to the Company held by you or any person that directly or indirectly will have voting power over your interest in the Company will be limited to 19.9% of the Company’s outstanding voting equity securities (calculated on the basis of voting power) unless and until the Company determines otherwise in its sole discretion.

Furthermore, upon the occurrence of a Disqualifying Event with respect to you or any person that directly or indirectly has voting or dispositive power over your interest in the Company, the Manager and the Company may, in their sole discretion, take any action they determine necessary or advisable in connection with compliance with applicable regulations, including, without limitation, redeeming all or a portion of your Shares.

a. This Subscription Agreement, and the representations, warranties, agreements and other provisions contained herein, (1) shall be binding upon your heirs, executors, administrators and other successors; (2) shall survive your admission as a Shareholder of the Company; and (3) may be executed through the use of separate signature pages or in any number of counterparts (whether by original signature or photocopy or facsimile copy thereof), and all counterparts shall for all purposes constitute one agreement binding on all parties.

b. For the benefit of the Company, the Manager and any creditor of the Company, you waive any and all defenses to the payment in full or in part of your Total Commitment amount in accordance with the terms of the Memorandum. You agree that any dispute arising out of your funding obligations described in the Memorandum shall be deemed an action based upon an instrument for the payment of money only and you waive any and all affirmative defenses applicable under Delaware Law.

c. None of these Subscription Agreement Terms and Conditions may be supplemented, modified or amended by you except by written instrument signed by you and a duly authorized representative of GS. You agree that such a written instrument may be in the form of a written communication between you and a duly authorized representative of GS, such as an electronic communication, which shall become effective only upon acceptance by GS. You further agree that you will not contest the legally binding nature, validity or enforceability of any written instrument, communication or agreement in connection with your investment in the Company based on the fact that the terms were accepted electronically. Any such written instrument, communication or agreement entered into electronically will be deemed to be “in writing” and to have been “signed” by you with the same effect as a manual signature (and any electronic record of such agreements entered into online will be deemed to be “in writing”).

d. The provisions of this Subscription Agreement are severable. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof. If any provision of this Subscription Agreement is adjudged by any Adjudicating Body (as defined below) to not be enforceable in accordance with its terms, then such Adjudicating Body will have the power to modify the provision in a manner consistent with its objectives and/or to delete specific words or phrases, so that in its amended form, such provision will then be enforceable and will be enforced. An “Adjudicating Body” must have competent jurisdiction and means any court, legislature, agency, department, office, magistrate, justice, or other similarly recognized organization or body of any federal, state or local government, whether US or non-US, or any arbitrator.

e. Subject to the terms of the Fund Agreement and Memorandum, you consent to receiving or to having received, to the extent permitted by applicable law, electronic delivery, such as e-mail or by posting on a website (with notification of the posting by e-mail), of all Company Communications (as defined below), unless you opt-out of such electronic delivery in Section I, Question 4. Your consent, unless you opted out as provided in the prior sentence, to electronic delivery is effective immediately and extends to all Company Communications (including any Company Communication received prior to the date of your execution of this Subscription Agreement); however, certain Company Communications may not be available for electronic delivery at this time. The Manager or GS will notify you in advance when new types of Company Communications become available for electronic delivery. You may revoke or suspend your consent to electronic delivery or request paper copies of Company Communications that you are entitled to receive at any time by contacting GS. Your consent will remain in effect unless and until either you, the Company, the Manager or GS revoke it.

For purposes of this paragraph 18, “Company Communications” includes each Memorandum, other Additional Information, Company Document Update Notice (as defined below) and other information, notices, reports and documents delivered or provided to you by the Company, the Manager, GS or other parties in connection with any current or future investment in the Company.

You hereby agree that any physical or electronic communications by the Company, the Manager, GS or otherwise to you in connection with your investment in the Company may be delivered to the mailing or electronic address of record provided in Section I of this Subscription Agreement. You agree to notify GS immediately of any change in your physical or electronic address. Until GS has received and had a reasonable time to act on any notice of a change, GS may continue to send Company Communications to your previous physical or electronic address and any such Company Communications will be deemed to have been delivered to you, whether or not you have actually received them.

If an e-mail notification sent to you at your electronic address of record is returned as undeliverable or GS otherwise receives evidence of an invalid e-mail address through a return e-mail, GS will attempt to contact you to obtain a valid e-mail address. In the interim, Company Communications (or notices of such communications) may be delivered to your physical address of record in accordance with GS’s procedures. If GS is unable to obtain a valid e-mail address, Company Communications will be delivered to your physical address until you verify your e-mail address.

You agree that all Company Communications delivered to you in any of the ways described in this paragraph 18 will constitute good and effective delivery of the information to you when sent or posted by the Company, the Manager or GS, regardless of whether you actually or timely receive or access the Company Communications.

You consent to copies of all Company Communications being sent to your Financial Advisor, electronically or otherwise.

f. You acknowledge that the disclosures and information, and subject to the terms of the Fund Agreement and this Subscription Agreement, the terms and conditions, contained in the Memorandum, the Fund Agreement and this Subscription Agreement may be amended or otherwise updated or supplemented (collectively, “Company Document Updates”) from time to time as determined by the Manager in its sole discretion. You hereby agree that you are subject to such disclosures, information, terms and conditions, and acknowledge that all amendments, updates, and supplements are available to you upon request to the Manager. You hereby further agree that, if

you are making an additional subscription to the Company in which you already hold Shares, the terms and conditions contained herein shall apply equally to all of your Shares, regardless of the date of acquisition of such Shares.

Subject to the terms of the Fund Agreement and Memorandum, if the Company determines or is required to notify you of, or to obtain your consent for, any Company Document Update, you consent to receiving any such Company Document Update, as determined by the Company, (i) by physical or electronic transmission of such Company Document Update to you, (ii) by notice to you that such Company Document Update is available as an electronic posting, or (iii) by notice to you that such Company Document Update is available upon your request in hard copy or electronic copy (each, a “Company Document Update Notice”), and you hereby agree that any such Company Document Update Notice will constitute effective delivery of the notice of such Company Document Update to you for all purposes under the Memorandum regardless of whether you actually receive, access or request the Company Document Update.

Subject to the Binding Arbitration provisions of paragraph 20 below, (1) you agree that all claims in respect of any Action may be heard and determined in any Delaware Court, (2) you agree not to bring any Action in any other court, and (3) you agree that nothing in this Subscription Agreement or otherwise shall affect or limit any right that the Company or the Manager may otherwise have to bring any Action against you in the courts of any jurisdiction.

You appoint the Manager as your agent to receive on your behalf service of copies of the summons, complaint or initiating documents and any other process that might be served in any Action arising out of or relating to this Subscription Agreement, the Fund Agreement, the Memorandum and your purchase, ownership or disposition of Shares.

c. This Subscription Agreement is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of laws principles, and shall be deemed to be performed entirely within the State of Delaware.

d. Each of the parties hereto waives all right to trial by jury in any Action arising out of or relating to this Subscription

Agreement, the Fund Agreement, the Memorandum and/or your purchase, ownership or disposition of Shares.

20. Binding Arbitration.

a. This Subscription Agreement contains a pre-dispute arbitration clause. By signing an arbitration agreement the parties agree as follows:

(1) All parties to this Subscription Agreement are giving up the right to sue each other in court, including the right to a trial by jury, except as provided by the rules of the arbitration forum in which a claim is filed.

(2) Arbitration awards are generally final and binding; a party’s ability to have a court reverse or modify an arbitration award is very limited.

(3) The ability of the parties to obtain documents, witness statements and other discovery is generally more limited in arbitration than in court proceedings.

(4) The arbitrators do not have to explain the reason(s) for their award unless, in an eligible case, a joint request for an explained decision has been submitted by all parties to the panel at least 20 days prior to the first scheduled hearing date.

(5) The panel of arbitrators may include a minority of arbitrators who were or are affiliated with the securities industry.

(6) The rules of some arbitration forums may impose time limits for bringing a claim in arbitration. In some cases, a claim that is ineligible for arbitration may be brought in court.

(7) The rules of the arbitration forum in which the claim is filed, and any amendments thereto, shall be incorporated into this Subscription Agreement.

b. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement or the Memorandum, and except for any claim or action which the Manager, the Company, or GS may elect (in their sole discretion) to commence as provided for in this Subscription Agreement, the Fund Agreement and/or the Memorandum to determine or enforce any of its rights or your obligations under this Subscription Agreement, the Fund Agreement or the Memorandum, you agree that all disputes arising out of or relating to (1) this Subscription Agreement, (2) your purchase, ownership or disposition of any Shares, or (3) your rights or obligations under the Fund Agreement and Memorandum shall be resolved in accordance with the Binding Arbitration provisions of this paragraph 20.

c. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the rules then in effect of FINRA (as amended, supplemented and

interpreted from time to time) or, if both GS and you agree that it should be so arbitrated, the American Arbitration Association. Any dispute or claim involving a Dollar amount of $50,000 or less will be before one arbitrator, and all other disputes and claims will be before a panel of at least three arbitrators. The award of the arbitrator or a majority of the arbitrators, as the case may be, will be final, and judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the provisions in this paragraph 20 shall limit the ability of a party to file any claim in court permitted to be filed in court under the rules then in effect of FINRA, or if both GS and you agree that it should be so arbitrated, the American Arbitration Association.

d. No person shall bring a putative or certified class action to arbitration, nor seek to enforce any pre-dispute arbitration agreement against the other party who has initiated in court a putative class action or who is a member of a putative class who has not opted out of the class with respect to any claims encompassed by the putative class action until: (1) the class certification is denied, (2) the class is decertified or (3) the other party is excluded from the class by the court. Such forbearance to enforce an agreement to arbitrate shall not constitute a waiver of any rights under this Subscription Agreement except if stated herein. In the event that you bring any claim as part of a class action, then, upon any determination that such action shall not be permitted to proceed as a class action, such action shall be dismissed and you shall pursue such claim exclusively through arbitration in accordance with the Binding Arbitration provisions of this paragraph 20.

21. Payment Obligations.

a. You agree that if you should fail to fulfill any payment obligation due to the Company or any other person hereunder, including, without limitation, any subscription or indemnification payment or any payment due to the Company with respect to an adjustment in the value of your Shares, (a) all or a portion of your then remaining interest in the Company (including your interest in future distributions of the Company) may be irrevocably forfeited, and (b) the Company may take any other action authorized by the Fund Agreement or Memorandum with respect to the unfulfilled payment obligation.

b. All payments contemplated under this Subscription Agreement, the Fund Agreement, the Memorandum and your ownership of Shares (including all indemnification obligations) must be satisfied by payment in the currency denomination of the Shares as set forth in the Memorandum, unless otherwise expressly consented to in writing by the Company. Your obligation to pay such currency to the Company shall not

be satisfied by payment in any other currency, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent that the amount actually received by the Company upon conversion of amounts received in any other currency to the currency set forth in the Memorandum falls short of the amount in the Company’s currency originally due to the Company (a “Shortfall Amount”). You agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to pay to the Company on demand any Shortfall Amount.

c. You agree that unless you provide the Company or the administrator of the Company (as applicable) with an original written notice to the contrary, redemption proceeds from and other payments in respect of your Shares will be sent to the Financial Advisor through which you purchased Shares.

d. You acknowledge and agree that payments contemplated under this Subscription Agreement, the Fund Agreement or the Memorandum may be effected through custody accounts that are held in the name of the Company or its relevant service provider and operated by third parties, and in connection therewith, you will be subject to the credit, legal and operations risks of such third parties.

22. Financial Advisor Arrangements. The Company has entered into an agreement (the “Intermediary Agreement”) with the Financial Advisor identified in Section I of this Subscription Agreement whereby the Financial Advisor has been authorized to act as an intermediary with respect to the purchase of Shares by clients of the Financial Advisor (“Introduced Clients”).

In connection with such arrangement, the Financial Advisor may provide certain services with respect to Introduced Clients, including the Subscriber, which may include the following:

(a) Facilitating communications between the Company and Introduced Clients, including serving as a point of contact for Introduced Clients with respect to any inquiries or requests they may have;

(b) Receiving and ensuring the completeness of subscription agreements completed by Introduced Clients;

(c) Receiving redemption requests from Introduced Clients and delivering such redemption requests to the Manager on behalf of such Introduced Clients;

(d) Receiving from the Company and delivering to Introduced Clients securities or cash to be distributed to Introduced Clients in connection with redemptions by such Introduced Clients or cash distributions that the Company has determined, in its sole discretion, to make to all Shareholders, including distributions in respect of liquidation of the Company; and

(e) Receiving any requests for transfers of Shares by Introduced Clients and communicating such transfer requests to the Manager, and otherwise facilitating the process for transfers of Shares by Introduced Clients if permitted by the Manager, in its sole discretion.

The Financial Advisor may indemnify the Company for certain losses resulting from errors made in connection with the provision of services (including with respect to processing redemption requests) pursuant to the Intermediary Agreement.

As compensation for its services to the Company in respect of an Introduced Client, the Financial Advisor will receive certain fees from GS.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company, in its sole discretion, may reject any subscription for Shares by any Introduced Client. The Company, the Manager, GS and its affiliates will not be responsible or liable for (i) the contents of any representation made by the Financial Advisor to prospective investors (other than the contents of the Memorandum) and (ii) any materials provided to prospective investors by the Financial Advisor, if any, in connection with the offering of the Shares (other than the contents of the Memorandum).

By subscribing for Shares and becoming a Shareholders of the Company, the Subscriber consents to the Financial Advisor providing the services on the terms set forth in the Intermediary Agreement.

If you are a non-US person for US federal income tax purposes or may become such a person while you hold a Shares, you acknowledge that the Company may redeem your entire Shares to the extent provided in the Fund Agreement or the Memorandum, and that in any event the Memorandum does not discuss all of the tax consequences of an investment in the Company that may be relevant to you, and you have consulted or will consult prior to the acquisition of a Shares with your own tax advisor with respect to the US tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Shares.

For the avoidance of doubt, you hereby acknowledge that your indemnity obligations under this paragraph will continue after you have transferred or redeemed your entire Shares. You acknowledge that the Company and GS shall be entitled to retain all, or any portion, of amounts otherwise payable to you as a reserve for any obligation you may have under this paragraph 4, which reserve, to the extent not setoff against such obligations, shall be returned to you when determined by GS to no longer be necessary.

l. If Section I of this Subscription Agreement does not indicate that the Plan is a Benefit Plan Investor subject to the fiduciary or prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the IRS Code, or any laws or regulations that could deem the underlying assets of the Company to constitute the assets of the Benefit Plan Investor and subject the Manager to laws or regulations that are similar to the fiduciary or prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the IRS Code by reason of the direct or indirect investment by the Benefit Plan Investor in the Company, (1) the Plan is not subject to the fiduciary or prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the IRS Code, or any such other laws or regulations, and (2) the Fiduciary will promptly notify the Manager in writing if the Plan becomes subject to the fiduciary or prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA, Section 4975 of the IRS Code or any such other laws or regulations.

Manager to determine whether to grant such authorization, and (C) if the Fiduciary objects to the arrangement authorized hereunder, or to a change in such arrangement, then, unless the arrangement is terminated or the change is not implemented (as applicable), the Fiduciary may have additional rights under the exemption and is referred to Section IV(d)(1) thereof); (2) a “named fiduciary” of the Plan (as defined in Section 402(a)(2) of ERISA) has the authority to appoint the Manager as an “investment manager” (within the meaning of Section 3(38) of ERISA) with respect to the assets of the Plan invested in the Company with the authority to appoint other “investment managers” with respect to such assets and, by the purchase of the investment in the Company by the Plan, is deemed to appoint the Manager as an “investment manager” with respect to the assets of the Plan invested in the Company with the authority to appoint other “investment managers” for so long as the assets of the Company consist of “plan assets”; and (3) pursuant to Section 408(b)(16) of ERISA, the Fiduciary authorizes the use of the electronic communication networks, alternative trading systems or similar execution or trading systems or venues (“ECNs”) that are listed in the Memorandum, as well as any ECNs that may be added to the list at http://www2.goldmansachs.com/
