individual executing and delivering this Agreement for and on
behalf of Client is of full legal age in the jurisdiction in
which such individual resides and is legally competent and
has full power and authority to do so on behalf of Client and
its stockholders, partners or beneficiaries, if any. Client
hereby represents to Advisor that Client is fully familiar
with the speculative nature of trading Investments and its
high degree of risk which makes such trading suitable only
for a person who can sustain substantial losses which may be
far in excess of such person's funds on deposit in such
person's Account. Client hereby represents to Advisor that
Client is willing and able, financially and otherwise, to
assume the risks of trading Investments and has financial

grants to Advisor full power and authority to act for Client

fraud. Client shall indemnify Advisor, its members,
principals, officers, employees, agents and affiliates for
all liability incurred in the performance of the services
required by this Agreement, provided that there has been no
