| Fees and Compensation — Form ADV Part 2A (3/31/2026) [Brochure] |
|---|
Item 5 – Fees and Compensation The Funds The Funds offer interests or shares, as applicable, only to certain investors and subscription into the Funds is not open to the public. Interests are sold only to qualified investors who are “accredited investors” under Rule 501(a) of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Each Fund’s Offering Documents contain a detailed description of the applicable Fund’s fee schedule. Management Fee The Advisors are generally paid a monthly or quarterly management fee computed on the value of each Fund’s capital accounts/net asset value. These fees can range from 1% to 2.5% depending on the Fund or any applicable share class. The respective managing member or general partner of the Fund may, in its sole discretion, waive, reduce or calculate differently the management fee with respect to certain investors. In addition, the General Partner may direct any excess revenue of the Fund in its sole discretion. Please refer to each Fund’s respective offering documents for their specific fee schedule. Performance Fee or Carried Interest In addition, the applicable Fund’s managing member or general partner receives an incentive allocation if net profits allocated to the respective Fund’s capital account exceed net losses allocated to that account, subject to a loss carryforward provision. The incentive allocation ranges from 10% to 20% of net profits, depending on the Fund. The respective managing member or general partner may, in its sole discretion, waive, reduce, or calculate differently the incentive allocation with respect to certain investors. The relevant offering documents contain a detailed description of applicable fees. The Advisors deduct fees from Fund assets. In general, The Advisors receive a quarterly management fee paid in arrears based on the net asset value of the respective Fund, payable as of the first day of each quarter. The incentive allocation, if any, will be determined as of each fiscal year end and, with respect to capital withdrawn/redeemed other than as of a fiscal year end, as of the time of such withdrawal/redemption with respect to the withdrawn/redeemed amount. As noted above, an incentive fee is subject to a loss carryforward provision. It is critical that investors refer to the relevant offering documents for a complete understanding of how the Advisors are compensated for their advisory services. The information contained in Item 5 is a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by the relevant offering documents for each Advisory Client. Other Fees The Advisors shall pay their own expenses such as office rent, supplies, stationery, secretarial expenses, charges for furniture and fixtures, employee insurance, payroll taxes and compensation of employees. The Funds will be responsible for paying their ordinary fund expenses including legal, third-party accounting, audit and other professional fees and expenses, third-party administration fees and expenses, and research expenses (including research-related travel). The Advisors will pay the organizational expenses of the Funds. The Funds will bear any extraordinary operating expenses included in the operation of the partnership, if any, such as legal or accounting expenses relating to tax examinations or litigation involving the Funds. In addition, the Funds will bear any ordinary transaction fees and expenses related to the Funds’ investment activities. It should be noted that the Funds may compensate persons who have been instrumental in the sale of limited partnership interests which compensation may be paid from the Management Fee and/or Incentive Fee. In no event will such compensation be borne by or otherwise charged to the Funds, Limited Partners, or any prospective Limited Partners. The Advisors shall pay their own organizational expenses, including expenses incurred in connection with the initial offer and sale of Interests in the Funds. The forgoing list is not all inclusive and only highlights primary Fund expenses. Fund Investors are directed to the applicable disclosures in the Offering Documents for a complete listing and description of the fees and expenses related to each specific Fund. EB-5 Program Sunstone Advisors provides non-discretionary advisory and management services to American Lending Center LLC (“ALC”), an affiliated, private non-bank lending institution on a fixed, flat fee per investor arrangement and under a (legacy) fixed percentage of assets under management for prior investors. Any fee arrangement with ALC will be agreed upon and documented. As reflected in such agreement, ALC may elect to pay the fee by check or by deducting the fee from eligible accounts. |

Item 7 – Types of Clients Our Clients are primarily proprietary pooled investment vehicles with offerings exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 506(b) of the Securities Act of 1933 (collectively, “the Funds”). The Funds’ investment objectives are primarily focused on diverse, early-stage technology focused private companies that we believe provide new opportunities for economic growth through the creation of public-private partnerships across government, education and private sectors. Sunstone Advisors will also provide non-discretionary advisory services to ALC related to EB-5 Programs established by the Immigrant Investor Program (the “EB-5 Program”). The EB-5 Program is a visa program which allows foreign investors to gain permanent residence in the United States in exchange for a minimum investment into new commercial enterprises (“NCEs”) that provide economic development and job creation. Sunstone Advisors and the Relying Adviser do not provide investment advisory services to retail investors. However, the Advisors may facilitate securities transactions as private sales with the issuing Funds under the Issuer’s Exemption under, Rule 144. Advisory representatives do not receive a selling commission for these transactions. |
