Item 5 – Fees and Compensation

The following details the fee structure and compensation methodology for services provided by the Advisor. Each
Client engaging the Advisor for services described herein shall be required to enter into a written agreement with
the Advisor.

    A. Fees for Advisory Services
Fund Clients
Aston charges a flat rate between 0.3% and 0.5% annually, payable monthly or quarterly in arrears. In addition,
Aston receives a performance fee from Fund Clients. The performance fee is up to 10% of the realized and
unrealized profits of the fund, with some clients having a hurdle rate (SOFR +), as of the end of each calendar
year and on the effective date of certain redemptions once the investors have received a full return of their capital
plus a stated return on the invested capital as set forth in the fund’s offering document (the “Performance Fee”).
The Performance Fee is charged in compliance with Rule 205-3.

Individual Clients
Our compensation for services to Individual Clients is determined on a client-by-client basis, and the specific
amount of such compensation and the manner in which compensation is charged are established in each
Individual Client’s written advisory agreement with Aston. Our compensation is based on the market value of
assets under management at the end of the calendar quarter. The investment advisory typical fee for Individual

Clients is 0.3% plus 10% over SOFR + Hurdle annually, subject to a minimum annual fee of $12,000. Some
individual clients pay only a percentage of the annual gains without a hurdle. Fees may be negotiable at the sole
discretion of the Advisor. Investment advisory fees in the first quarter of service are prorated from the inception date
of the accounts to the end of the first quarter.

    B. Fee Billing
The advisory fee paid by Fund Clients is paid to Aston as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each
month. Investment advisory fees for Individual Clients are calculated by the Advisor or its delegate and billed
quarterly in arrears. The manner in which compensation is charged is set forth in each Individual Client’s written
advisory agreement with Aston.

The Advisor shall send an invoice to the Custodian indicating the amount of the fees to be paid from an Individual
Client’s account at the respective quarter end date. Individual Clients provide written authorization permitting Aston
to be paid directly from their account held by an independent Custodian upon Individual Client’s written
authorization pursuant to the terms of an investment advisory agreement between the Advisor and the Individual
Client. Aston does not have the ability to request payment for advisory services without the client’s written
expressed consent.

    C. Other Fees and Expenses
Clients can incur certain fees or charges imposed by third parties, other than Aston, in connection with a Client’s
account. The Advisor’s fee is not inclusive of: brokerage fees, transaction fees, and other related costs and
expenses, which can be incurred by the Client. However, the Advisor shall not receive any portion of these
commissions, fees, and costs. A description of the brokerage and other transaction costs that could be borne by
Clients are described in more detail in Item 12 (Brokerage Practices) in this brochure. Clients have the option to
purchase investment products through unaffiliated brokers or agents.

In addition, Fund Clients pay all the costs of the fund’s operation and management, including the organizational
expenses, the fees and expenses payable to service providers and all expenses related to its investment
program.

    D. Pre-Paid Fees
Aston’s fees are generally earned when services are provided and are generally paid in arrears as described in
other parts of this Brochure and in the advisory agreements of Clients and offering documents of Fund Clients.

    E. Compensation for Sales of Securities
Neither Aston nor any of Aston’s employees accepts compensation for the sale of securities or other investment
products.
