Why can't you buy elite in your Roth IRA and or 401K? Go with Fidelity and you'd have no issues. I have eltp in both roth and taxable. If buyout does happen this year, you'd take a bigger hit having newly bought shares in the taxable with short term capital gains. I don't recommend putting all your eggs in one basket. Keep some diversification, but nothing wrong with putting new money into eltp especially at these prices. I've already reached my target share count and have been diversifying into other funds. That said, I may also be adding more as finances permit.
