PRIVACY NOTICE

The U.S. federal government and certain state governments have taken steps to assure the protection of nonpublic personal information that companies obtain from their customers. Protecting your privacy is important to us. We want you to understand what information we collect, how we use it and the steps we take to protect that information. We have recently updated our policies regarding these matters as follows:

INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We collect nonpublic personal information about you, our investors, on the forms we receive from you and in connection with the transactions you conduct with us. This information may include, among other things, your first and last name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, social security number, bank or credit union account information, and other information that permits us to contact you either electronically or by other means, to maintain and store this information through the use of these identifying items, and to perform financial transactions for you.

INFORMATION WE DISCLOSE
We do not disclose any nonpublic personal information about our investors or former investors to anyone outside of our organization, except as permitted or required by law. For example, nonpublic personal information may be disclosed to third parties providing essential services to us who have contracted to maintain the confidentiality and security of the information; or to law enforcement personnel pursuant to proper authority.

CONFIDENTIALITY AND SECURITY
Furthermore, we limit access to nonpublic personal information about our investors and former investors to those employees who need to know that information to perform their job responsibilities. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to guard the nonpublic personal information of our investors and former investors.

CHANGES TO OUR PRIVACY POLICY
We will communicate any material changes in this policy to you by posting the revised policy on our website and by mailing the new policy to you if you are a current investor with us at the time of the change.
