| Fees and Compensation — Form ADV Part 2A (3/31/2026) [Brochure] |
|---|
Fees and Compensation FinStrat receives a management fee and it, or a related person, may receive a performance allocation (see “Performance Based Fees and Side-by-Side Management” below) for providing investment management services. Management fees are payable quarterly in advance. Both management fees and performance allocations will be deducted by FinStrat and any related person directly from Clients. For the period in which new investments are being made, the management fee is 2% of the aggregate amount of capital committed to the Client. Thereafter, the rate at which the management fee is charged will decrease in each year by 0.2% to a minimum of 1%, and the management fee for each year will be calculated by applying such year’s percentage to an amount equal to the sum, without duplication, of (i) capital contributions invested in portfolio entities that have not been disposed of or written off, (ii) capital contributions invested in seed investments that have been disposed of, to the extent such portfolio investments had been managed by any portfolio entities not disposed of or written off at such time, and (iii) any portion of the capital committed to the Client that remains callable due to having been reserved for investment in portfolio entities. FinStrat, in its sole discretion, may waive, reduce or rebate all or a portion of the management fee and/or performance allocation and interest thereon in respect of any Client or any investor in a Client. No such waiver, reduction or rebate for the benefit of any Client or any investor in a Client will entitle any other person to such waiver, reduction or rebate. In addition to management fees and performance allocations, Investors will bear indirectly the fees and expenses charged to the Clients. Those fees and expenses will vary, but typically will include fees, costs and expenses related to the purchase, holding and sale of Portfolio Investments (defined in the “Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss” section), and any expenses incurred in connection with transactions not consummated, management fees, fees and unreimbursed expenses of custodians, outside counsel and accountants, any insurance or litigation expense, any taxes, fees or other governmental charges levied against the Client, costs and expenses of an advisory committee and annual meetings of Investors, and extraordinary expenses. FinStrat or its related persons also may provide various office space, back office and other services to assist the development and growth of the Portfolio Investments and may charge the underlying investment management companies such services at cost. Further information regarding the fees charged to Clients may be found in each Client’s offering document and other governing documents. In the case where a Client is invested in money market funds that pay a management fee to their own adviser, the Client is in effect paying two management fees. Clients indirectly pay an investment management fee to the money market fund manager which is in addition to the investment management fee paid to FinStrat. Either FinStrat or the Client may terminate its respective investment management agreement per the terms negotiated therein. Notice of termination must be given to the other party in writing. Each Client is responsible to pay for services rendered until the termination of its respective investment management agreement. FinStrat’s policy is to make pro-rata refunds if any fees have been paid in advance. Performance Based Fees and Side-by-Side Management FinStrat or a related person may be compensated based on a performance allocation that is equal to 20% of amounts distributed to the limited partners of a Client after the limited partners have received the total amount of the capital contributions actually paid by them to such Client plus an amount sufficient to provide a cumulative 8% preferential return thereon, in each case calculated as of the date of the relevant distribution. Performance based fees may create an incentive for FinStrat to make investments that are riskier or more speculative than would be the case in the absence of a performance fee. |

Types of Clients FinStrat provides investment advice to private investment funds. Each Client operates as a pooled investment vehicle intended to provide management expertise and other advantages to Investors. The minimum initial capital contribution for an investor of the Partnership is $5,000,000. However, FinStrat maintains discretion to accept less than the minimum investment amount, subject to limitations under applicable law. Investors will be required to make certain representations when investing in a Client, including but not limited to that (i) they are acquiring an interest for their own account, (ii) they received or had access to all information they deem relevant to evaluate the merits and risks of the prospective investment and (iii) they have the ability to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Client. Each investor will be furnished with a copy of the applicable operative document (e.g., limited partnership agreement, memorandum and articles of association, etc.) for each Client. Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss FinStrat’s investment strategy is to invest on behalf of its Clients in a portfolio of traditional and alternative investment management companies (“Portfolio Companies”) and generally have a controlling interest in each of these Portfolio Companies, either in the form of majority control or a significant minority stake with meaningful managerial and economic control rights. The Client’s ownership interest will entitle it to receive a share of the carried interest and profit distributions. Each Client will provide track record capital to the investment vehicles and accounts managed by the Portfolio Companies, which is designed to increase the companies’ growth and value by demonstrating the performance of particular investment strategies related to appropriate risk- adjusted benchmarks (together with Portfolio Companies, the “Portfolio Investments”). Finally, each Client will use one of several exit strategies when ending the investment in the Portfolio Companies including: outright sales to strategic or financial buyers, buyouts by the portfolio company management teams, or initial public offerings of either individual companies or combinations of them. Investments in Portfolio Investments are highly speculative, and Investors could risk a complete loss of their investment. A successful program of investing in Portfolio Investments is subject to risks, including without limitation, risks related to (i) the quality of management teams of the Portfolio Investments; (ii) the ability of the management teams of the Portfolio Investments to select successful investment opportunities; (iii) general market conditions; and (iv) the ability of the Client to liquidate its investments. Additional information related to the risks associated with these investments can be found in the Client’s offering documents. No guarantee or representation is made that FinStrat will achieve its investment objective or that Clients will receive a return of their capital. In addition, the performance of the Clients’ investments is substantially dependent upon the skill, judgment and expertise of FinStrat’s primary portfolio managers. The death, disability or other unavailability of any of FinStrat’s primary portfolio managers could be material and adverse to the performance of Clients’ investments. General Market and Economic Conditions. All advisers are affected by general economic and market condition risks, such as global and local economic growth, interest rates, availability of credit, credit defaults, inflation rates, economic uncertainty, changes in laws (including laws relating to taxation of clients’ investments), trade barriers, currency exchange controls, and national and international political circumstances (including wars, terrorist acts or security operations), and pandemics (i.e., coronavirus). These factors may affect the level and volatility of the prices and the liquidity of Clients’ investments. Volatility or illiquidity could impair Clients’ profitability or result in losses. Risk of Limited Number of Investments. The Client may participate in a limited number of investments and, as a result, the aggregate return of the Client may be substantially adversely affected by the unfavorable performance of any single investment. Competition for Portfolio Investments. The Client may encounter competition from other entities having similar investment objectives. Potential competitors include other investment partnerships and corporations, business development companies, strategic industry acquirers and other financial investors investing directly or through affiliates. Some of these competitors may have more relevant experience, greater financial resources and access to more personnel than the Client. It is possible that competition for appropriate investment opportunities may increase, thus reducing the number of opportunities available to the Client and adversely affecting the terms upon which investments can be made. There can be no assurance the Client will be able to identify or consummate investments satisfying the investment criteria or the Client’s rate of return objectives. Likewise, there can be no assurance that the Client will be able to realize upon the values of its investments or that it will be able to invest the capital committed by the Investors. To the extent that the Client encounters competition, returns to Investors’ returns may decrease. Force Majeure: Investments may be affected by force majeure events (i.e., events beyond the control of the party claiming that the event has occurred, including, without limitation, acts of God, fire, flood, earthquakes, outbreaks of an infectious disease, pandemic or any other serious public health concern, war, terrorism, labor strikes, major plant breakdowns, pipeline or electricity line ruptures, failure of technology, defective design and construction, accidents, ... |
