All Units are offered at an initial price beginning at $100 per Unit, but which may vary at prices generally equal to the prior calendar’s net asset value (“NAV”).

In consideration of the above, and the mutual agreements set forth below, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:
1. Subscription.
(a) The Investor subscribes for and agrees to purchase Units as set forth on the signature page hereto at the at the then current offering price ($100 per Unit until the NAV has been established, then the NAV) (the “Per Unit Purchase Price”) , upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. The minimum subscription amount in this Offering is $5,000.00 (the “Minimum Amount”). An investor may satisfy such Minimum Amount by either: (a) purchasing Units at the then current offering price ($100 per Unit until the NAV has been established, then the NAV) for a cash payment at the time of subscription (a “Total Payment”); or (b) committing to purchase $5,000.00 in Units by making an initial payment of $500.00 or more for Units at the then current NAV (an “Initial Payment”) and concurrently enrolling in autopay for recurring monthly payments of no less than $100 per month for such number of months as shall be necessary for a total investment of no less than the Minimum Amount (the “Autopay Option”). The monthly autopayments will be used to purchase additional Units (including fractional Units) , at the then current offering price ($100 per Unit until the NAV has been established, then the NAV) as such payments are received. Other than purchases of Units pursuant to this Agreement, the minimum number of Units that an Investor may purchase in any subsequent investment transaction is one Unit.
(b) Investor understands that the Units are being offered pursuant to the Form 1-A Regulation A Offering Circular dated September 26, 2022 and its exhibits as filed with and qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 26, 2022, as amended by that certain Post Effective Date Amendment No. 2 Offering Circular dated March 8, 2023 and its exhibits as filed with and qualified by the SEC on March 8, 2023 (collectively, the “Offering Circular”). By subscribing to the Offering, the Investor acknowledges that Investor has received and reviewed the Offering Circular and any other information required by Investor to make an investment decision with respect to the Units. The Company will accept tenders of funds to purchase the Units. The Company will close on investments on a “rolling basis,” pursuant to the terms set forth in the Offering Circular.

In addition, the Company, at its sole and absolute discretion, may allocate to the Investor only a portion of the number of the Units that the Investor has subscribed for under this Agreement.

If the Investor’s subscription is rejected, the Investor’s payment (or portion thereof if partially rejected) will be returned to the Investor without interest and all of the Investor’s obligations hereunder shall terminate. In the event of rejection of this subscription in its entirety, or in the event the sale of the Units (or any portion thereof) to the Investor is not consummated for any reason, this Agreement shall have no force or effect, except for Section 5 below, which shall remain in full force and effect.
(d) The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Investor and the Investor’s permitted transferees, heirs, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Transferees”); provided, however, that for any such transfer to be deemed effective, the Transferees shall have executed and delivered to the Company in advance an instrument in form acceptable to the Company in its sole discretion, pursuant to which the proposed Transferees shall acknowledge and agree to be bound by the representations and warranties of the Investor and the terms of this Agreement.

4. Representations and Warranties of Investor. By subscribing to the Offering, the Investor (and, if the Investor is purchasing the Units subscribed for in a fiduciary capacity, the person or persons for whom the Investor is so purchasing) represents and warrants, which representations and warranties are true and complete in all material respects, as of the date of each Closing:
(a) Requisite Power and Authority. The Investor has all necessary power and authority under all applicable provisions of law to subscribe to the Offering, to execute and deliver this Agreement and to carry out the provisions thereof. All actions on the Investor’s part required for the lawful subscription to the Offering have been or will be effectively taken prior to the Closing. Upon subscribing to the Offering, this Agreement will be a valid and binding obligation of the Investor, enforceable in accordance with its terms.
(b) Company Offering Circular and SEC Reports. The Investor acknowledges the public availability of the Company’s Offering Circular which can be viewed on the SEC ▇▇▇▇▇ Database, under the CIK number 0001904054. This Offering Circular is made available in the Company’s qualified offering statement on SEC Form 1-A, as amended, and was qualified by the SEC on March 8, 2023. The terms and conditions of this Offering and its risks are set forth in the Offering Circular, and the Investor has had an opportunity to discuss the Company’s business, management and financial affairs with the Principals and other management of the Company and has had the opportunity to review the Company’s operations and facilities. Investor has also had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from Principals of the Company regarding the terms and conditions of this investment. The Investor acknowledges that except as set forth in the Offering Circular, no representations or warranties have been made to the Investor, or to the Investor’s advisors or representatives, by the Company or others with respect to the business or prospects of the Company or its financial condition.
(c) Investment Experience; Investor Determination of Suitability. The Investor has sufficient experience in financial and business matters so that he or she is capable of utilizing the information set forth in the Offering Circular to evaluate the merits and risks of Investor’s investment in the Units, and to make an informed decision relating to an investment in the Units. Alternatively, the Investor has utilized the services of a purchaser representative and together they have sufficient experience in financial and business matters that they are capable of utilizing such information to evaluate the merits and risks of the Investor’s investment in the Units. The Investor has evaluated the risks of an investment in the Units, including those described in the section of the Offering Circular entitled “Risk Factors,” and has determined that the investment is suitable for the Investor. The Investor has adequate financial resources to make an investment in Units, and the Investor could bear a complete loss of the Investor’s investment in the Company.
(d) No Registration. The Investor understands that the Units are not being registered for resale under the Securities Act, and are being issued under Regulation A of Section 3(b) of the Securities Act, and that reliance on Regulation A is predicated in part on the truth and accuracy of the Investor’s representations and warranties, and those of the other purchasers of the Units, in the Offering. The Investor further understands that, at present, the Company is offering the Units solely by members of its management. However, the Company reserves the right to engage the services of a broker/dealer registered with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). Accordingly, until such FINRA registered broker/dealer has been engaged as a placement or selling agent, the Units may not be “covered securities” under the National Securities Market Improvement Act of 1996, and the Company may be required to register or qualify the Units under the securities laws of those states in which the Company intends to offer the Units. If Units are so registered or qualified, the Company will notify the Investor and all prospective purchasers of the Units as to those states in which the Company is permitted to offer and sell the Units. If the Company engages a FINRA registered broker/dealer as placement or selling agent, and FINRA approves the compensation of such broker/dealer, then the Units will no longer be required to be registered under state securities laws on the basis that the issuance of those Units will be exempt as an offer and sale not involving a registrable public offering in such state, as the Units will be “covered securities” under the National Securities Market Improvement Act of 1996. The Investor covenants not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Units unless such Units have been registered under the applicable state securities laws in which the Units are sold, or unless exemptions from such registration requirements are otherwise available.
(e) Illiquidity and Continued Economic Risk. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that there is no ready public market for the Units and that there is no guarantee that a market for their resale will ever exist. The Company has no obligation to list any of the Units on any market or take any steps (including registration under the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) with respect to facilitating trading or resale of the Units. The Investor must bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely and the Investor acknowledges that the Investor is able to bear the economic risk of losing the Investor’s entire investment in the Units.
4
(f) Accredited Investor Status or Investment Limits. The Investor represents that either:
(i) the Investor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Units Act; or
(ii) the total purchase price, together with any other amounts previously used to purchase Units in this Offering, does not exceed ten percent (10%) of the greater of the Investor’s annual income or net worth (or in the case where the Investor is a non-natural person, the revenue or net assets for such Investor’s most recently completed fiscal year end).
The Investor represents that to the extent the Investor has any questions with respect to the Investor’s status as an accredited investor, or the application of the investment limits, it has sought professional advice.
(g) Member Information. Within five (5) days after receipt of a request from the Company, the Investor agrees to provide such information with respect to its status as a member (or potential member) of the Company and to execute and deliver such documents as may reasonably be necessary to comply with any and all laws and regulations to which the Company is or may become subject, including, without limitation, the need to determine the accredited investor status of the Company’s members. If the Investor transfers any Units, it will require the transferee of such Units to agree to provide such information to the Company requires as a condition of such transfer.
(h) Valuation; Arbitrary Determination of Per Unit Purchase Price by the Company. The Investor acknowledges that the Per Unit Purchase Price of the Units to be sold in this Offering was set by the Company on the basis of the Company’s internal valuation, and the Company makes no warranties as to value. The Investor further acknowledges that the Company may make future offerings of Units at lower valuations, with the result that Investor’s Units will bear a lower valuation.
(i) Domicile. The Investor maintains the Investor’s domicile (and is not a transient or temporary resident) at the address provided below.
(j) Foreign Investors. If the Investor is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), the Investor represents that he or she is satisfied as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Units or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Units, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale, or transfer of the Units. Investor’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Units will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of Investor’s jurisdiction.
(k) Fiduciary Capacity. If the Investor is purchasing the Units in a fiduciary capacity for another person or entity, including without limitation a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, trust or any other entity, the Investor has been duly authorized and empowered to execute this Agreement and all other subscription documents. Upon request of the Company, the Investor will provide true, complete and current copies of all relevant documents creating the Investor and authorizing its investment in the Company.
5. Indemnity. The representations, warranties and covenants made by the Investor in this Agreement shall survive the Closing. Investor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its respective officers, directors and affiliates, and each other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all reasonable attorneys’ fees, including attorneys’ fees on appeal) and expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any false representation or warranty or breach of failure by Investor to comply with any covenant or agreement made by Investor herein or in any other document furnished by Investor to any of the foregoing in connection with this transaction.
5
6. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law. The Investor hereby (i) waives all rights to trial by jury in any action, suit or proceeding brought to resolve any dispute between or among any of the parties (whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of, connected with, related or incidental to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the relationships established among the parties hereunder; (ii) acknowledges and irrevocably agrees that all actions, proceedings, disputes, matters or claims related to or arising from this Agreement shall be heard and determined strictly in accordance with the terms and procedures set forth in Exhibit A as the sole and exclusive procedure for the resolution of any such action, proceeding, dispute matter or claim; (iii) further agrees not to bring any action, proceeding, dispute matter or claim related to or arising from this Agreement in any court, forum, venue, tribunal or jurisdiction except for such court, forum, venue, tribunal or jurisdiction explicitly provided for in Exhibit A; (iv) no Investor will bring a putative or certified class action to arbitration, nor seek to enforce any pre-dispute arbitration agreement against the other party that has initiated in court a putative class action or that is a member of a putative class that 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. Any forbearance to enforce an agreement to arbitrate will not constitute a waiver of any rights under this Agreement except if stated herein; and (v) agrees that a final judgment in any proceeding so brought in accordance with the terms and procedures set forth in Exhibit A shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law or at equity. Nothing in this Section 6, however, shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or at equity. The Investor agrees that a final judgment in any proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law or at equity.

EXHIBIT A
DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURES
Any and all controversies, disputes or claims arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement or any related agreement, document or obligation, including any challenge regarding its or their existence, validity, operation or termination (each, a “Dispute”), shall be subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in this Exhibit A. Any party to the Dispute (each, a “Party”) may initiate such procedures by delivering written notice to the other Party (the “Dispute Notice”), describing in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances underlying the Dispute and the relief sought.
(a) The Parties shall first attempt to resolve the Dispute through good faith negotiations. All offers, conduct and statements, whether oral or in writing, made in the course of the negotiation by any of the Parties or their respective affiliates, directors, managers, officers, employees, agents, experts or attorneys (collectively, “Representatives”) shall be deemed confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any arbitration or other proceeding involving the Parties, provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the negotiation. In the event the Parties are unable to resolve the Dispute within twenty business days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, then, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, the Dispute shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration before a panel of three arbitrators (the “Panel”). No lawsuit or other proceeding shall be brought by or on behalf of any Party during the negotiation period.
(b) The arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), or such other nationally-recognized dispute resolution organization mutually agreed upon by the Parties in writing, and shall be conducted in accordance with the applicable commercial arbitration rules and mediation procedures of AAA or such other organization then in effect, as expressly modified pursuant to this Exhibit A, and the Parties hereby elect and consent to the use of any available expedited or fast track rules and procedures (collectively, the “Rules and Procedures”).
(c) The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to select the Panel within fifteen business days after expiration of the negotiation period. If an agreement on the composition of the Panel is not reached within such fifteen business day period, then the arbitrators shall be selected in accordance with the Rules and Procedures and this clause (c). In the event of the failure, refusal or inability of any arbitrator to act, a new arbitrator shall be appointed as a replacement, which appointment shall be made in the same manner as set forth above for the appointment of such resigning arbitrator. Each arbitrator must: (i) be a retired Delaware federal or state court judge or a licensed attorney with at least ten years of active experience in commercial litigation or transactional matters; (ii) be instructed that he or she is a neutral arbitrator; (iii) have had no relationship representing either Party or their respective affiliates during the immediately preceding one year period prior to selection; and (iv) agree in writing to abide and be bound by this Exhibit A.

EXHIBIT C
AUTOPAY RIDER
The undersigned (“Investor”) acknowledges and agrees that concurrently herewith Investor has subscribed for a total of $_________ in Units of Birgo Reiturn Fund LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), pursuant to a Subscription Agreement dated as of even date herewith (the “Agreement”). Any term used but not defined in this Autopay Rider shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement.
The Agreement allows Investor to elect an Autopay Option by completion of this Autopay Rider whereby the Investor will commit and enroll to make monthly automatic payments which will result in Investor paying aggregate payments of no less than $5,000.00. Investor elects to enroll in the Autopay Option.
Investor hereby agrees to the following automatic and recurring payment terms:
| Initial Payment: | $______ | |
| Monthly Payment: | $______ | |
| Total Months: | $______3 |
Investor authorizes and directs the Company to initiate scheduled debit entries (“Debits”) from my designated account indicated below (the “Account”) to make monthly payments as set forth above commencing on the first day of the first calendar month following the date hereof. This Rider shall remain in effect for the Total Months set forth above, subject to automatic termination as set forth below.
The Account information may be changed within 10 business days of Investor providing written notice to the Company in accordance with the Agreement.
Investor understands that it may not stop the Debits. Failing to make a Monthly Payment due to insufficient funds in the Account or otherwise shall be a breach of this Autopay Rider. If a Monthly Payment is more than thirty (30) days past due (a “Payment Default”), then the Company may exercise the right to repurchase Units (the “Repurchase Right”) set forth below in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Company pursuant to the Agreement.
Investor understands and agrees that if the Account does not have sufficient funds to make a Monthly Payment, the Company will not be responsible or liable for any penalties or charges assessed as a result of such insufficiency.
This Autopay Rider shall automatically terminate 180 calendar days after September 26, 2025, unless, at the time payments are due to purchase Units: (a) the Company has a new offering statement qualified that includes as part of such new offering statement any unsold Units covered by this offering statement, the amount of which are identified as being included on the cover page of the new offering circular or the latest amendment; and (b) the Company is current in its annual and semiannual filings pursuant to Rule 257(b) (§ 230.257(b)). If this Autopay Rider is terminated as provided in the previous sentence, Investor shall have no further right or obligation to purchase Units and Investor shall not be liable for failure to purchase the Minimum Amount. The Company also reserves the right to change the terms and conditions of this Autopay Rider upon 30 days prior written notice to Investor if required to comply with applicable laws.
REPURCHASE RIGHT
In the event of a Payment Default, the Company may elect, at its sole discretion, to repurchase all, but not less than all, of the Units held by Investor. In the event the Company elects to repurchase Units pursuant hereto, the Company shall send written notice to Investor stating that the Company is exercising this Repurchase Right.
In connection with any repurchase by the Company of Units pursuant to this Repurchase Right, the purchase price paid to Investor shall be equal to 50% of the total purchase price paid by Investor for the Units. Any purchase price paid pursuant to this Repurchase Right shall be delivered to Investor within thirty days after the Company sends written notice of repurchase. Any Units repurchased pursuant to this Repurchase Right will cease to accrue distributions or have voting rights and will not be treated as Outstanding, and Investor will cease to be a member of the Company, as of the date that the purchase price is delivered to Investor.
