6 MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) CHOICE OF LAWS: This Subscription Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, without giving effect to its choice of laws rules.
(b) ENTIRE AGREEMENT: This Subscription Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and may be amended only by written agreement between all parties.
(c) ARBITRATION: Either party may, at its sole election, require that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for resolution of a Claim be final and binding arbitration pursuant to this section (this “Arbitration Provision”). The arbitration shall be conducted in the State of Colorado in the Jefferson county. As used in this Arbitration Provision, “Claim” shall include any past, present, or future claim, dispute, or controversy involving Purchaser (or persons claiming through or connected with Purchaser), on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, relating to or arising out of this Subscription Agreement, and/or the activities or relationships that involve, lead to, or result from any of the foregoing, including (except to the extent provided otherwise in the last sentence of sub-section (iv) below) the validity or enforceability of this Arbitration Provision, any part thereof, or the entire Subscription Agreement. Claims are subject to arbitration regardless of whether they arise from contract; tort (intentional or otherwise); a constitution, statute, common law, or principles of equity; or otherwise. Claims include (without limitation) matters arising as initial claims, counter-claims, cross-claims, third-party claims, or otherwise. This Arbitration Provision applies to claims under the U.S. federal securities laws and to all claims that that are related to the Company, including with respect to this offering, our holdings, the common shares, our ongoing operations and the management of our investments, among other matters. The scope of this Arbitration Provision is to be given the broadest possible interpretation that is enforceable.
(i) The party initiating arbitration shall do so with the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) or JAMS. The arbitration shall be conducted according to, and the location of the arbitration shall be determined in accordance with, the rules and policies of the administrator selected, except to the extent the rules conflict with this Arbitration Provision or any countervailing law. In the case of a conflict between the rules and policies of the administrator and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision shall control, subject to countervailing law, unless all parties to the arbitration consent to have the rules and policies of the administrator apply
(ii) If the Company elects arbitration, the Company shall pay all the administrator’s filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees). If Purchaser elects arbitration, filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees) shall be paid in accordance with the rules of the administrator selected, or in accordance with countervailing law if contrary to the administrator’s rules. The Company shall pay the administrator’s hearing fees for one full day of arbitration hearings. Fees for hearings that exceed one day will be paid by the party requesting the hearing, unless the administrator’s rules or applicable law require otherwise, or Purchaser requests that the Company pay them and the Company agree to do so. Each party shall bear the expense of its own attorney’s fees, except as otherwise provided by law. If a statute gives Purchaser the right to recover any of these fees, these statutory rights shall apply in the arbitration notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
(iii) Within 30 days of a final award by the arbitrator, a party may appeal the award for reconsideration by a three-arbitrator panel selected according to the rules of the arbitrator administrator. In the event of such an appeal, an opposing party may cross-appeal within 30 days after notice of the appeal. The panel will reconsider de novo all aspects of the initial award that are appealed. Costs and conduct of any appeal shall be governed by this Arbitration Provision and the administrator’s rules, in the same way as the initial arbitration proceeding. Any award by the individual arbitrator that is not subject to appeal, and any panel award on appeal, shall be final and binding, except for any appeal right under the Federal Arbitration Act (the “FAA”), and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

| SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT | PFG FUND V LLC |
(iv) The Company agrees not to invoke the Company’s right to arbitrate an individual Claim that you may bring in Small Claims Court or an equivalent court, if any, so long as the Claim is pending only in that court. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT, NO ARBITRATION SHALL PROCEED ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS (INCLUDING AS PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ON BEHALF OF OTHERS), EVEN IF THE CLAIM OR CLAIMS THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THE ARBITRATION HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN ASSERTED (OR COULD HAVE BEEN ASSERTED) IN A COURT AS CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE ACTIONS IN A COURT.
(d) TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT: If this subscription is rejected by the Company, then this Subscription Agreement shall be null and void and of no further force and effect and no party shall have any rights against any other party hereunder and the Company shall promptly return the funds delivered with this Subscription Agreement.
(e) TAXES. The discussion of the federal income tax considerations arising from investment in the Company, as set forth in the Offering Circular, is general in nature and the federal income tax considerations to the Purchaser of investment in the Note will depend on individual circumstances. The Offering Circular does not discuss state income tax considerations, which may apply to all or substantially all Purchasers. There can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Code or the Regulations under the Code will not be amended in a manner adverse to the interests of the Purchaser or the Company.
(f) DULY AUTHORIZED. If the Purchaser is a limited liability company, partnership, trust, or other entity, the individual(s) signing in its name is(are) duly authorized to execute and deliver this Subscription Agreement on behalf of such entity, and the purchase of the Note by such entity will not violate any law or agreement by which it is bound.
(g) LIMITED TRANSFERABILITY. The Purchaser understands that the Note will have limited transferability, accordingly, that Note must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Act and any other applicable securities law or exemptions from such registration is available. The Purchaser understands that the Company is under no obligation to register Note under the Act, to qualify Note under any federal or state securities law, or to comply with Regulation A or any other exemption under the Act or any other law.
(h) THE PROMISSORY NOTE CONTAINS RESTRICTIVE LEGEND. Any documents or certificates issued to evidence ownership of the Promissory Note will bear restrictive legends notifying prospective purchasers of the transfer restrictions set forth above, and the Company will not permit transfer of any Note on the books of the Company in violation of such restrictions.
(i) SUCCESSORS. The representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be binding on the Purchaser’s successors, assigns, heirs and legal representatives and shall inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the Company and its directors and officers. If the Purchaser is more than one person, the obligations of all of them shall be joint and several, and the representations and warranties contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and to be binding upon, each such person and his heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns.
