The undersigned hereby sells to the Fund the Interest tendered pursuant to this Letter of Transmittal. The undersigned warrants that it has full authority to sell the Interest tendered hereby and that the Fund will acquire good title to the Interest, free and clear of all liens, charges, encumbrances, conditional sales agreements, or other obligations relating to this sale, and not subject to any adverse claim, when, and to the extent that, the Interest is purchased by the Fund. Upon request, the undersigned will execute and deliver any additional documents necessary to complete the sale in accordance with the terms of the Offer to Purchase.

The promissory note will also reflect the “Post-Audit Payment” portion of the purchase amount, if any, as described in Section 7 of the Offer to Purchase. Any Post-Audit Payment of cash due pursuant to the promissory note will also be made by wire transfer of funds to the undersigned’s account as provided herein. The undersigned recognizes that the amount of the initial payment of the purchase amount for its Interest will be based on the unaudited net asset value of the Fund as of June 30, 2008, subject to an extension of the offer as described in Section 8 of the Offer to Purchase.
The Post-Audit Payment portion of the purchase amount, if any, will be determined upon completion of the audit of the Fund’s financial statements, which is anticipated to occur no later than 60 days after December 31, 2008, the Fund’s fiscal year-end. The Post-Audit Payment will be payable promptly after the completion of the Fund’s next annual audit.
All authority conferred, or agreed to be conferred, in this Letter of Transmittal will survive the death or incapacity of the undersigned, and the obligation of the undersigned hereunder will be binding on the heirs, personal representatives, successors, and assigns of the undersigned.
