Item 5: Fees and Compensation
Items 5.A, 5.B, 5.C and 5.D
Asset-Based Compensation
Kane Street charges each Fund an investment management fee based on the value of the Fund’s
assets under management (collectively, the “Management Fees”). The Management Fees range from
1.5% to 2.0% (per annum) of the net assets of the Funds and are charged monthly in advance on the first
day of each month. If a Fund is established during a month or a Fund makes an addition to its account
during a month, the Management Fee will be charged as of the effective date of the investment
management agreement or the date of the additional contribution based on the value of the assets as of
the applicable date and will be prorated for the number of days remaining in the month. The
Management Fees are not negotiable. However, Kane Street may, in its sole discretion, waive or reduce
the Management Fees for certain Investors. The Management Fees are generally deducted from each
Fund account by the Funds’ administrator upon Kane Street’s proper instructions.
Performance-Based Compensation
Kane Street (or an affiliate) may be paid performance-compensation by the Funds, which is
compensation that is based on a share of capital gains on or capital appreciation of the assets of a Fund.
This compensation may be paid to Kane Street (or an affiliate) and is equal to 20% of the net profits
(including net unrealized gains) allocated to an Investor, subject to a loss carryforward provision. In
respect of the Long Fund, receipt of performance-compensation is subject to a hurdle. For more
detailed information and a complete description of the performance-based compensation, if any, paid
to Kane Street (or an affiliate) by Investors in a particular Fund, refer to the relevant Fund’s offering
documents. The amount of performance-based compensation paid to Kane Street (or an affiliate) is not
negotiable. However, Kane Street (or an affiliate) may, in its sole discretion, waive or reduce the
amount of performance-based compensation for certain Investors.
Expenses
In addition to paying Management Fees and, if applicable, performance-based compensation,
each Fund is required to bear certain other expenses, including, without limitation, Fund legal,
accounting (including third-party accounting services), auditing and other professional fees and
expenses, organizational expenses, administration fees and expenses, research expenses, investment
expenses such as commissions, custodial fees, Fund-related insurance costs, bank service fees, directors’
fees and expenses (as applicable), shareholder proxy voting services (as applicable), and other expenses
related to the purchase, sale or transmittal of the Fund’s assets. Further, certain Funds are invested in a
master-feeder structure and such feeder funds bear a pro rata share of the expenses associated with the
master fund.
It is critical that Investors refer to the relevant Fund’s offering documents for a complete
understanding of fees and expenses to which they are subject. The information contained herein is
provided in summarized form and is qualified in its entirety by such documents.
