efforts” all or none basis up to 50 Units (the “
Minimum Amount ”) and thereafter on a
reasonable efforts basis up to 500 Units ($ 5,000,000
) (the “ Maximum Amount
”). The minimum investment amount that may be

The Offering is being made solely to
“accredited investors” (as defined in Rule 501 of
Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “ Securities Act
”)).
All subscription funds will be held in the

extended by the Company to a date no later than February 20, 2009
(the “ Termination Date ”, with this
additional period, together with the Initial Offering Period, being
referred to as the “ Offering Period
”). The Company may hold an initial closing
(“ Initial Closing ”) at any time after
the receipt of accepted subscriptions equal to the Minimum Amount
on or prior to the Termination Date. After the Initial
Closing, subsequent closings with respect to additional Units may
take place at any time, as determined jointly by the Company (each
such closing, together with the Initial Closing, being referred to
as a “ Closing ”). In the
event that a Closing is not held prior to the Termination Date, the
Company will refund all subscription funds, without deduction
and/or interest accrued thereon, and will return the subscription
documents to each subscriber.
If the Company
rejects a subscription, either in whole or in part (which decision
