A. General Representations.

The undersigned, an authorized representative of Client, understands that this Distribution Plan is based on the requirements of SEC Rule 10b5-1(c)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Rules”). In summary, under the Rules, a person executing pre-planned purchases or sales pursuant to a written plan established in good faith at a time when that person was unaware of material nonpublic information has an affirmative defense against allegations of insider trading with respect to such purchases or sales. The undersigned understands that this Distribution Plan covers pro rata in-kind distribution of the Shares to its partners, without the payment of any consideration, based upon their respective capital interests pursuant to the terms of its partnership agreement and in accordance with the requirements of Rule 144, and does not contemplate purchases or sales. The Client’s purpose for this Distribution Plan is to provide for such distributions by Client of securities of the Issuer pursuant to the Rules.

The undersigned, an authorized representative of Client, hereby represents that, as of the date of execution hereof:

Client is not in possession, and is not aware, of any material nonpublic information about the securities which are the subject of this Distribution Plan or the Issuer of such securities and is not currently subject to any quarterly, special or other trading blackout period in effect under the Issuer’s insider trading policy as currently in effect;

Client is entering into this Distribution Plan in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade any law, including, without limitation, the federal securities laws, any law governing insider trading, or the terms of the Issuer’s insider trading policy as currently in effect;

Client understands and agrees that (i) MSSB makes no representation that this Distribution Plan complies with, and/or provides an affirmative defense against allegations of insider trading pursuant to, SEC Rule 10b5-1, and (ii) Client has consulted with its own advisors as to the legal, tax, financial and other aspects of this Distribution Plan, including its compliance with SEC Rule 10b5-1.

Client owns the securities which are the subject of this Distribution Plan free and clear and Client acknowledges and confirms that:

(i)

Neither Client nor the securities subject to this Distribution Plan are subject to any pledges, liens, security interests or other impediments to transfer (except for limitations imposed by Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if applicable), nor is there any contractual restriction or litigation, arbitration or other proceeding pending, or to Client’s knowledge threatened, that would prevent or interfere with the distribution of Shares under this Distribution Plan; and

(ii)

The execution and delivery of this Distribution Plan by Client and the distribution contemplated by this Distribution Plan will not contravene applicable law or any agreement or other instrument binding on Client or any of its affiliates or any judgment, order or decree of any governmental body, agency or court having jurisdiction over Client or its affiliates.

Client has not entered into or altered, and while this Distribution Plan is in effect Client will not enter into, any corresponding or hedging transaction or position with respect to the securities which are the subject of this Distribution Plan (including, without limitation, with respect to any securities convertible or exchangeable into common stock of the Issuer) and, unless this Distribution Plan is modified or terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, Client agrees not to alter or deviate from the terms of this Distribution Plan;

Client agrees not to, directly or indirectly, communicate any information relating to the Shares or the Issuer to any employee of MSSB or its affiliates who is involved, directly or indirectly, in executing this Distribution Plan at any time while this Distribution Plan is in effect or attempt to exercise any influence over how, when or whether to effect any distribution of Shares pursuant to this Distribution Plan (other than by providing the notice to MSSB further described in Part II. above); and

Client represents that this Distribution Plan conforms with the trading policies of the Issuer, and Client acknowledges and confirms that Client has provided MSSB with an Issuer Representation letter dated as of the date of this Distribution Plan signed by an authorized representative of the Issuer substantially in the form of Part IV - Exhibit A to this Distribution Plan.
