Item 5: Fees and Compensation
Asset-Based Fees
The Adviser is paid an asset-based investment management fee of 0% to 1.75%, as further provided for in
each Account Agreement and/or Fund Documents. The asset-based investment management fees paid by
the Funds are either per annum based on the capital contributions of the investors or the value of the assets
of the Fund (as further described in the Fund Documents of each Fund) or up-front based on the amount
invested in an Account. The Funds’ investment management fees are charged each month in advance based
on the capital contributions of the investors in the Fund or the value of the assets of the Fund. Generally,
the Adviser’s management fees are not negotiable.
The Adviser generally deducts the investment management fee from the Clients on a monthly basis. For
the Funds, the Adviser requests fees by instructing a Fund’s custodian. However, in limited circumstances,
where cash reserved by the Funds are insufficient to pay the investment management fee, the Adviser may
bill investors in the Funds for the management fee, as further disclosed in each Funds’ Documents. Pre-
paid monthly investment management fees charged to the Funds will be refunded based on the number of
days remaining in the month for any period that is less than a full month.
Management fees assessed on investments in a Fund may be reduced or waived for certain principals,
employees or affiliates of the Adviser, relatives of such persons, and for certain large or strategic investors.

Performance-Based Allocations
The Adviser may also be paid performance-based allocations, which is an allocation that is based on a share
of capital appreciation of the assets of a Client. These allocations may be paid to the Adviser or to a related
person of the Adviser and ranges from 8% to 20% of the Client’s profits, as further described in each such
Account Agreement or Fund Documents. In some cases, this is paid on an annual basis and in other cases
it is paid out of amounts that would otherwise be distributed to a Fund’s investors.
Generally, performance-based allocations are not negotiable. However, the Adviser and its affiliates
generally have the ability to reduce or waive performance-based allocations for certain principals,
employees or affiliates of the Adviser, relatives of such persons, and for certain large or strategic investors.
