securities sold short, custodial fees and any other expenses reasonably related to the purchase,
sale or transmittal of the Fund’s assets will be borne by the Fund. While Abrams Bison currently
does not anticipate doing so, it reserves the right to charge all other expenses to the Fund
including auditing, legal and research expenses. Client assets may be invested in money market
mutual funds, ETFs or other registered investment companies. In these cases, the client will

in addition to the management fee paid to Abrams Bison.

E. Additional Compensation and Conflicts of Interest - Neither Abrams Bison nor any of its
supervised persons accept any form of compensation for the sale of securities or other
