FEES AND COMPENSATION
Cephei Capital’s Clients are generally qualified purchasers, as defined in section

not included in this brochure. However, most of Cephei Capital’s Clients pay some or all
of the following fees to Cephei Capital:
(i) Management fee
Management fees charged to Clients typically are calculated as a percentage of
assets under management, and they are varied under two investment strategies
adopted by Clients: for China long only Total Return Strategy, Cephei Capital
charged up to 1.5% of the net asset value per annum; and for China long only
Index Enhanced Strategy, Cephei Capital charged up to 0.8% of the net asset
value per annum.

Client’s account at the end of the relevant fiscal period. Performance fee for
China long only Total Return Strategy are charged up to 20% of the net capital

only Index Enhanced Strategy are charged up to 20% of the net capital
appreciation in excess of certain benchmark.

fees and performance fee for certain classes or investors, including employees and affiliates
of Cephei Capital, in its discretion. None of Cephei Capital’s supervised person receives
