APPOINTMENT OF AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS BY NON-RESIDENT
GENERAL PARTNER AND NON-RESIDENT MANAGING AGENT OF AN
INVESTMENT ADVISER
You must submit this Form ADV-NR if you are a non-resident general partner or a non-resident managing agent of
any investment adviser (domestic or non-resident). Form ADV-NR must be signed and submitted in connection
with the adviser’s initial application. If the mailing address you list below changes, you must file an amended Form
ADV-NR to provide the current address. If you become a non-resident general partner or a non-resident managing
agent after the date the adviser files its initial application, you must file Form ADV-NR with the Commission within 30
days. If you serve as a general partner or managing agent for multiple advisers, you must submit a separate Form
ADV-NR for each adviser.

1. Appointment of Agent for Service of Process
By signing this Form ADV-NR, you, the undersigned non-resident general partner or non-resident managing agent,
irrevocably appoint each of the Secretary of the SEC, and the Secretary of State, or equivalent officer, of the state in
which the adviser referred to in this form maintains its principal office and place of business, if applicable, and any
other state in which the adviser is applying for registration, amending its registration, or submitting a notice filing,
as your agents to receive service, and agree that such persons may accept service on your behalf, of any notice,
subpoena, summons, order instituting proceedings, demand for arbitration, or other process or papers, and you
further agree that such service may be made by registered or certified mail, in any federal or state action,
administrative proceeding or arbitration brought against you in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United
States, if the action, proceeding or arbitration: (a) arises out of any activity in connection with the investment
adviser’s business that is subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, and (b) is founded, directly or indirectly,
upon the provisions of: (i) the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Trust Indenture Act
of 1939, the Investment Company Act of 1940, or the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, or any rule or regulation
under any of these acts, or (ii) the laws of the state in which the adviser referred to in this Form maintains its
principal office and place of business, if applicable, or of any state in which the adviser is applying for registration,
amending its registration, or submitting a notice filing.

2. Appointment and Consent: Effect on Partnerships
If you are organized as a partnership, this irrevocable power of attorney and consent to service of process will
continue in effect if any partner withdraws from or is admitted to the partnership, provided that the admission or
withdrawal does not create a new partnership. If the partnership dissolves, this irrevocable power of attorney and
consent shall be in effect for any action brought against you or any of your former partners.
