  (vi) The Subscriber acknowledges that the General Partner, in consultation with the Trading Advisor, will determine in its sole discretion, whether and how to comply with FATCA, and any such determinations shall include, but not be limited to, an assessment of the possible burden to investors, the Partnership, the General Partner and the Administrator of timely collecting information and/or documentation.

The undersigned further acknowledges that such Subscriber has been duly organized and is validly existing and is in good standing in the jurisdiction of its formation and will, upon request of the General Partner, deliver any documents, including an opinion of counsel to the Subscriber, evidencing the existence of the Subscriber, the legality of an investment in the Partnership and the undersigned’s authority to execute this Subscription Agreement on the Subscriber’s behalf. This Subscription Agreement, including the power of attorney, has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Subscriber and is the valid and binding agreement of the Subscriber and is enforceable against such Subscriber in accordance with its terms. In the undersigned’s representative capacity, the undersigned has determined that an investment by the Subscriber in the Partnership (i) is consistent with the investment objectives, (ii) is in the best interests of, and (iii) is within the risk tolerance and cash flow requirements of such Subscriber and will not adversely affect the Subscriber’s overall need for diversification and liquidity. The Subscriber has also satisfied any additional due diligence obligations it may have to its beneficiaries or beneficial owners.

(14) If the Subscriber is subscribing for Units as a record owner in its capacity as agent, representative or nominee on behalf of one or more beneficial owners, it agrees that the representations, warranties and covenants made in this Subscription Agreement are made by it on behalf of itself and the beneficial owner(s).

(15) The purchase of Units hereunder and the compliance by a Subscriber with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the Limited Partnership Agreement applicable to such Subscriber, and the consummation by such Subscriber of the transactions herein and therein contemplated, will not (i) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any statute, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which such Subscriber is a party or by which such Subscriber is bound or to which any of the property or assets of such Subscriber is subject, nor (ii) will such action result in a violation of (x), if such Subscriber is an entity, the provisions of the organizational documents of such Subscriber or (y) any statute applicable to such Subscriber or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over such Subscriber or the property of such Subscriber.

(16) If the undersigned is subscribing for joint Subscribers or a Subscriber that is a community property account, the undersigned has full power and authority to purchase Units and enter into and be bound by this Subscription Agreement on behalf of the joint Subscribers or the Subscriber that is a community property account and will execute the signature page with the signatures of both spouses, in the case of a community property account.

(17) The Subscriber has carefully reviewed and understands the fees and other expenses that are directly and indirectly assessed against the Partnership, as set forth in the “Fees, Compensation, Expenses and Interest Income” section, as well as other sections, of the Memorandum. The Subscriber further acknowledges that the Partnership pays an ongoing selling agent fee (as discussed in the Memorandum) to Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated (“Baird”), a selling agent of the Partnership, and any other selling/services agents currently retained or retained in the future, as applicable. Baird and any other such selling/services agents may pay a substantial portion of the ongoing selling agent fee to their affiliated financial advisors and/or private wealth advisors. The Subscriber also understands that the Partnership is subject to conflicts of interest as discussed in the “Conflicts of Interest” section in the Memorandum. The Subscriber hereby consents and agrees to the payment of the fees and other compensation so described to the parties identified as the recipients thereof and to such conflicts. The Subscriber is satisfied that it has received adequate disclosure from the General Partner to enable the Subscriber to understand and evaluate the compensation and other terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement and the risks associated therewith. The Subscriber covenants not to object to or bring any proceedings against the General Partner, the Trading Advisor or any of their respective affiliates or representatives for any such conflicts of interest, provided that such parties comply with the appropriate standard of liability as set forth in the Limited Partnership Agreement or any other relevant controlling agreement. The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees to the terms of the customer agreements with any current and future futures commission merchants and the applicable selling/services agreements with the selling/services agents, and to the payment of any fees as described in the Memorandum.

(18) The Subscriber agrees that neither this Subscription Agreement, nor any of the Subscriber’s rights, interest or obligations hereunder, is transferable or assignable by the Subscriber. Furthermore, the Subscriber understands that the Units are illiquid, other than through redemption from the Partnership as provided in the Limited Partnership Agreement. The Units have no current secondary market and one is not expected to develop. The Subscriber may be holding such Units for an indefinite period of time and can afford to do so. The Units have not been registered, and the Partnership has no intention or obligation to register them, under the Securities Act or any similar state law, and the Partnership itself is not registered under the Investment Company Act. The Units and any beneficial interest therein cannot be transferred, sold, pledged or assigned, except in certain limited circumstances set forth herein, and only with notice to the General Partner, as set forth in the Limited Partnership Agreement. The Subscriber has no present plan to transfer, sell, assign or pledge its Units and it agrees to notify the General Partner prior to any proposed sale, transfer, distribution or other disposition of the Units or any beneficial interest therein (including, without limitation, by pledge, option, swap or nominee or similar relationship, and further including, without limitation, the offering or listing of any Units on or through any placement agent, intermediary, online service, site, agent or other similar person, service or entity). The Subscriber understands that it must bear the economic risk of its investment in the Partnership for an indeterminable period of time because the offering has not been registered under the Securities Act. The Subscriber further understands that the Units cannot be offered or sold unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available, and the Partnership has no obligation to assist the Subscriber in obtaining or complying with any exemption from registration. The Subscriber acknowledges that the admission of a transferee as a substituted limited partner requires (i) the consent of the General Partner, which consent may be withheld only for the purpose of preserving the Partnership’s tax status or to avoid adverse legal consequences to the Partnership, and (ii) the execution of a power of attorney, as set forth in this Subscription Agreement. However, the Subscriber agrees that no transfer may be made that results in either the transferee or the transferor holding fewer than three Units. Any transfer or assignment in violation of this Subscription Agreement or the Limited Partnership Agreement shall be null and void ab initio. The Subscriber further acknowledges that the General Partner may in its absolute discretion require any limited partner to redeem all or part of his/her Units, upon 10 days’ notice to such limited partner.

The Subscriber has made its own investment decision, including decisions regarding suitability of the investment based on its own judgment or, to the extent the Subscriber has found it necessary in relation to this investment, the Subscriber has been represented by such legal and tax counsel and others it has selected. The Subscriber is not relying on the Partnership, the General Partner, the Trading Advisor or any of their affiliates or representatives with respect to any legal, tax or economic considerations relating to its investment decision and, with respect to the tax aspect of the Subscriber’s investment, the Subscriber is relying upon the advice of its own personal tax advisors and upon its knowledge with respect thereto. The Subscriber further understands that the only disclosures for which the Partnership, the General Partner, the Trading Advisor or any their respective affiliates, as applicable, accepts any responsibility relating to the Subscriber’s investment are those set forth in the Memorandum and the Limited Partnership Agreement.

(20) The Subscriber understands the meaning and legal consequences of the representations, warranties, agreements, covenants and confirmations set out herein and agrees that the subscription made hereby, if accepted by the General Partner, will be accepted in reliance thereon. The Subscriber expressly consents to the General Partner, the Trading Advisor and the Administrator accepting and executing any instructions transmitted in written form, facsimile form or by other electronic means in respect of an investment in the Partnership to which this application relates (including, without limitation, redemption requests). If instructions are given by the Subscriber in facsimile form or by other electronic means, the Subscriber undertakes to send the original letter of instructions to the Partnership and the Administrator and hereby agrees to hold harmless and indemnify each of the Indemnified Persons (as defined below), the Administrator and any of its employees and agents against any loss of any nature whatsoever arising to any of them as a result of any of them acting upon such instructions submitted by facsimile or by other electronic means, including e-mail. The Subscriber agrees that each of the Partnership, the General Partner, the Trading Advisor and their respective affiliates, and the partners, managers, officers, directors, members, equity holders, stockholders, other beneficial owners, employees or other applicable representatives of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”), and each of the Administrator and any of its employees and agents, may rely conclusively upon and shall incur no liability (i) in respect of any action taken upon any notice, consent, request, instructions or other instrument believed, in good faith, to be genuine or to be signed by properly authorized persons on the Subscriber’s behalf, including any document transmitted in a manner consistent with the notice section herein, (ii) for adhering to applicable anti-money laundering obligations whether now or hereinafter in effect or (iii) for any loss arising from the non-receipt of any instructions relating to the Subscriber’s Units delivered by facsimile or other electronic means. Each Indemnified Person and each of the Administrator and any of its employees and agents shall be allowed such amount of time to act on and implement any instructions as may be reasonable having regard to their systems and operations and any other circumstances then prevailing and shall not be liable for any loss arising from any delay in acting on any instruction.

(21) The Subscriber agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Indemnified Persons from and against any and all direct and consequential losses, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses (including reasonable costs and attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements) whether incurred in an action between the parties hereto or otherwise or resulting from any unsuccessful proceeding or other action brought by the Subscriber against any of the foregoing relating to the Partnership or the offering of the Units (collectively, the “Losses”), which any of the Indemnified Persons may incur by reason of or in connection with any representation or warranty made in this Subscription Agreement (or in the

accompanying Subscriber Information Form) not having been true, correct and complete when made, any misrepresentation made by the Subscriber or any failure by the Subscriber to fulfill any of the covenants or agreements set forth herein, in the Subscriber Information Form or in any other document provided by the Subscriber to the Partnership. The Subscriber also agrees that it will indemnify and hold harmless each of the Indemnified Persons for any Losses each such entity may incur in connection with the Subscriber’s failure to comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation (including anti-money laundering laws and regulations) having application to such Indemnified Person.

(22) Except as otherwise indicated in the Subscriber Information Form, the Subscriber hereby agrees to receive and accept reports and communications indefinitely from the Partnership, the Administrator and the General Partner exclusively via e-mail to the e-mail address set forth in the Subscriber Information Form unless the Subscriber notifies the General Partner or the Administrator in writing that the Subscriber wishes to receive reports to either another e-mail address, or alternatively, via regular mail in lieu of e-mail. If instructions are given by the Subscriber via e-mail, the Subscriber agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person and each of the Administrator and any of its employees and agents against any loss of any nature whatsoever arising to any of them as a result of any of them acting upon instructions submitted by facsimile or by other electronic means.

(23) The Subscriber agrees to provide, if requested, any additional information and representations that may reasonably be required to substantiate the Subscriber’s status as an “accredited investor” or to otherwise determine its eligibility to purchase Units, including, but not limited to, (i) financial statements, tax returns, bank and brokerage statements and similar documentation, or (ii) a verification of accredited investor status by a third party verification agent that is acceptable to the General Partner. The Subscriber agrees to provide any additional information and execute any additional documents as may reasonably be required in connection with any subscription, credit facility or other similar borrowing arrangement by the Partnership or any lender named in the credit facility or similar lending arrangement. Furthermore, the Subscriber agrees to give the Partnership prompt written notice in the event that any tax statement, certification, representation, warranty or other information provided by the Subscriber herein or in any document required to be provided under this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, any forms W-9 and/or W-8) ceases to be true at any time following the date hereof. For so long as the Subscriber is a limited partner, it hereby agrees to provide any revised or updated information necessary to cause the Subscriber Information Form and the Subscription Agreement to remain true and correct, as soon as practicable upon the Subscriber becoming aware that any such change or revision is necessary, including with respect to its bad actor disqualification representations in number (38) and with respect to any tax statements, certifications, representations, warranties or covenants made hereunder (including, without limitation, any forms W-9 and/or W-8).

(24) The Subscriber consents to the Partnership, the General Partner, the Trading Advisor, the Administrator and each of their respective affiliates sharing with each other, and with any other service provider, governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or any other person (to the extent required by law or deemed, subject to applicable law, by the General Partner to be in the best interest of the Partnership) any information provided by the Subscriber to the Partnership to enable the Partnership, the General Partner, the Trading Advisor, the Administrator and each of their respective affiliates to comply with any laws, rules, regulations and ordinances established by any law or regulatory agency (including any self-regulatory organization) to which the Partnership, the General Partner or the Trading Advisor is subject.

(25) The Subscriber hereby represents and agrees that the name, address, ownership capacity and all other information provided by the Subscriber, or the undersigned on behalf of the Subscriber, in this Subscription Agreement, and in the Subscriber Information Form, relating to its subscription for Units in the Partnership is true, correct, accurate and complete as of the date hereof, and will be relied upon by the

Additional Representations and Warranties for Employee Benefit Plan and IRA Investors:

(34) If the Subscriber is a “Benefit Plan Investor” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA), the undersigned is a fiduciary (within the meaning of ERISA) with respect to the Subscriber and the undersigned is responsible for purchasing the Units (or the fiduciary has reviewed and certifies the representations made hereunder and has signed to that effect on the Additional Representation page attached), and such purchase is in accordance with ERISA requirements and will not constitute a prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Code. The term “Benefit Plan Investor” means (i) an employee benefit plan subject to the provisions of Part 4 of Title I of ERISA, (ii) a plan or individual retirement account subject to Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, or (iii) an entity whose underlying assets are deemed to include ERISA plan assets by reason of investment in such entity by investors described in clauses (i) and/or (ii).

The undersigned and the Subscriber understand that the General Partner in its sole discretion may limit investments in the Partnership so that less than 25% of the Units of the Partnership are owned by Benefit Plan Investors, and the General Partner may require a Benefit Plan Investor to redeem its interest in the Partnership if such 25% limit would be exceeded.

(35) If the Subscriber is a Benefit Plan Investor, the Subscriber also represents that either (i) or (ii) as follows is true:

(i) neither the General Partner nor any of its affiliates (a) manages any part of the Subscriber’s investment portfolio on a discretionary basis, (b) regularly gives investment advice for a fee with respect to the Subscriber’s assets, or (c) has an agreement or understanding, written or unwritten, with the Subscriber under which it receives information, recommendations or advice concerning investments that are used as a primary basis for the Subscriber’s decisions, or under which the Subscriber receives individualized investment advice concerning its assets; or

(ii) the Subscriber is independent of the General Partner, has studied the Memorandum and has made an independent decision to make the investment solely on the basis of such Memorandum and without reliance on any other information or statements as to the appropriateness of the investment, and neither the General Partner nor its employees or affiliates: (a) has exercised any investment discretion or control with respect to its investment; (b) has authority, responsibility to give or has given individualized investment advice with respect to its investment; or (c) is the employer maintaining or contributing to the Subscriber.

(36) If the Subscriber is a Benefit Plan Investor, it also represents that both (i) and (ii) as follows are true:

(i) the plan’s investment in the Partnership does not violate and is not otherwise inconsistent with the terms of any legal document constituting the plan or any trust agreement thereunder; and

(ii) the Subscriber will, at the request of the Partnership, furnish the Partnership with such information as the Partnership may reasonably require to establish that the purchase of the Units by the plan does not violate any provision of ERISA or the Code, including without limitation, those provisions relating to “prohibited transactions” by “parties in interest” or “disqualified persons” as defined therein.

(37) If the Subscriber is a benefit plan or retirement account that is not a “Benefit Plan Investor” as defined in number (34) above, such as a governmental plan, a non-U.S. benefit plan or a church plan that is not subject to ERISA, this investment is in accordance with legal requirements applicable to the Subscriber.

Bad Actor Disqualification:

(38) Choose one of the following. Failure to respond will result in the Subscriber’s subscription being rejected.

 

  ¨ The Subscriber represents and warrants that it, and if it will not be the sole beneficial owner19 of its Units, any other person or entity that may be considered a beneficial owner of its Units (the “Beneficial Owners”), is not subject to the “Bad Actor” disqualifications under Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act; that the representations in Annex I are true and correct with respect to the Subscriber, and any Beneficial Owners; that there is no inquiry, investigation, proceeding, arbitration, indictment, charge or action pending against the Subscriber that could result in any of the disqualifying events under Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act (and thereby prevent the Subscriber from making the representations in Annex I); that the Subscriber has no further information to report regarding the representations in Annex I with respect to it or any Beneficial Owners; and, if this Subscription Agreement is being submitted on behalf of an entity, each person (whether an individual or an entity) that controls such entity (whether through ownership of voting securities or otherwise) and qualifies as a Beneficial Owner of such entity represents and warrants to the foregoing. The Subscriber agrees that the foregoing representations and warranties (including the representations in Annex I) shall continue and that, if there is a change in circumstances that would result in a change in the Subscriber’s confirmation of any of the foregoing matters, it will promptly notify the General Partner of such change.

or

 

  ¨ The Subscriber cannot confirm all of the representations in Annex I, but it (i) confirms that the Subscriber, and/or any Beneficial Owners, has obtained a waiver from disqualification under Rule 506(d) either (a) from the SEC or (b) from the court or regulatory authority issuing the relevant order, judgment, decree, suspension, limitation, bar, expulsion, injunction or other such disqualification and (ii) agrees to submit information about the relevant disqualifying event and evidence of the waiver to the General Partner together with this Subscription Agreement.

 

19  For purposes of these representations, a “beneficial owner” is interpreted the same way as under Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act and means any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, under Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, has or shares, or is deemed to have or share: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of, such security; (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose, or to direct the disposition of, such security; and/or (iii) any person that has the right to become a beneficial owner as described in (i) or (ii) within 60 days, including through the exercise of an option, the termination of a contract or otherwise.

(39) The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that to the extent that it cannot confirm the statements in Annex I (whether as of the date of this Subscription Agreement or at any time in the future) and (i) the Subscriber holds, (ii) the Subscriber and any Affiliated Investor(s)20 hold in aggregate, (iii) the Partnership anticipates that the Subscriber will likely hold or (iv) the Partnership anticipates that the Subscriber and any Affiliated Investor (s) will likely hold in aggregate, 20% or more of the Partnership’s outstanding Units (the “20% Threshold”), the Partnership may compulsorily redeem the Subscriber’s Units (upon 10 days’ notice) in an amount such that (i) the Subscriber’s Units or (ii) the Subscriber’s and Affiliated Investor Units, in aggregate, will not equal or exceed the 20% Threshold.
