(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Fund hereby appoints Foreside as its principal underwriter and exclusive distributor for the sale and distribution of Units of the Fund. Subject to the performance in all material respects by the Fund of its obligations hereunder, and to the completeness and accuracy in all material respects of all of the representations and warranties of the Fund contained herein, Foreside agrees to act as agent of the Fund for distribution of the Units, upon the terms and at the current offering price (plus sales charge, if any) described in the Prospectus and the Investor Certificate.

| (ii) | All applications for Units and payments therefor shall be made pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus and Investor Certificate. |

| (iv) | No offer or sale of any Units shall be made in any state or jurisdiction, or to any prospective investor located in any state or jurisdiction, where such Units have not been registered or qualified for offer and sale under applicable state securities laws unless such Units are exempt from the registration or qualification requirements of such laws. |
(e) The Fund agrees that no Units shall be offered in any jurisdiction outside the United States (a "Foreign Jurisdiction") unless:
| (i) | The Fund notifies Foreside of any contemplated offering in a Foreign Jurisdiction, in each case setting forth the following information: (A) the applicable Foreign Jurisdiction; (B) whether, and, if so, with which regulatory authorities the Fund may need to be registered and confirmation that Foreside does not need to be registered in such Foreign Jurisdiction in connection with such offering; (C) to whom the Units are proposed to be offered; (D) if outside the United States, the location(s) from which the offering activities are proposed to be conducted and the scope of such activities; (E) whether the Units will be offered or sold to investors or intended investors through agents that are licensed to do the same in the applicable Foreign Jurisdiction; and (F) such other information, including legal analysis, as Foreside may reasonably deem relevant. |
| (ii) | The Fund shall certify to Foreside that, based on the activity of the Adviser Reps or applicable Financial Intermediaries, the Fund has taken all necessary action to comply with the laws and regulations of such Foreign Jurisdiction to offer and sell its Units in the Foreign Jurisdiction including registration of such Units, if required. |
(f) All subscriptions for Units shall be made through Financial Intermediaries or Adviser Reps and directed to the Fund for acceptance and shall not be binding on the Fund until accepted by it. The Fund shall have the right to accept or reject any subscription in accordance with the terms of its
3
governing documents and the Prospectus. The Fund shall give notice of such determination to the individual subscriber and the Financial Intermediary or Adviser Rep responsible for the subscription.
(g) For purposes of the offering of Units, the Fund will furnish to Foreside copies of the Offering Materials in such numbers as Foreside may reasonably request for purposes of the offering. Foreside shall authorize the Adviser Reps and the Financial Intermediaries to furnish to prospective investors only such information concerning the Fund and the offering as may be contained in the Offering Materials.
(h) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Foreside shall not be required to register as a broker or dealer in any specific jurisdiction or to maintain its registration in any jurisdiction in which it is now registered; provided that Foreside shall at all times be registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC under the 1934 Act.

(e) The provisions of this section and the parties' representations and warranties in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnitee and shall survive the sale and redemption of any Units made pursuant to subscriptions obtained by Foreside.
