Is it a good idea to exercise stock options in an LLC?

Due to employment, I have the right to exercise stock options in an LLC. However, I have no knowledge of whether the company is likely to be taken at some point in the future. The options grant agreement also includes language that appears to obligate me to retain these shares indefinitely and not sell or otherwise encumber those shares. Without the ability to draw on these shares for potential investment, would these shares be a sound investment?
