(a) The Fund appoints the Investment Manager as the limited attorney-in-fact of the Fund to serve as its investment adviser, subject to the supervision and control of the Fund’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors,” each member of which is a “Director”), to manage the investment program of the Fund and provide such other services as set forth in this Agreement. This limited power-of-attorney is a continuing power and shall continue in effect with respect to the Investment Manager until terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
(b) The “Managed Assets” shall consist of: (i) all cash and other assets of the Fund; plus (ii) all investments, reinvestments and proceeds of the sale of such assets, including, without limitation, all distributions reinvested by the Fund and the interest on such investments, and all appreciation of, and additions to, such assets less depreciation of, and withdrawals from, such assets. “Managed Asset Value” shall be the value of the Managed Assets determined from time to time consistent with valuation procedures adopted by the Board of Directors. The Investment Manager shall be the exclusive investment adviser retained by the Fund with respect to the Managed Assets and, specifically, shall exercise its discretion with respect to the Managed Assets upon the terms and conditions, and for the purposes, set forth in this Agreement, and shall have sole authority and responsibility for directing the investment and reinvestment of the Managed Assets at such times, in such amounts and at such prices as the Investment Manager shall determine for the term of this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Investment Manager shall obtain and evaluate such information and advice relating to the economy, securities markets, and securities as it deems necessary or useful to discharge its duties under this Agreement, including: (a) to invest and reinvest the Managed Assets of the Fund in any one or more portfolio funds (each a “Portfolio Hedge Fund”) and other assets consistent with the Fund’s registration statement and other offering or promotional materials (collectively, the “Offering Materials”) in use from time to time; (b) to withdraw capital of the Fund from Portfolio Hedge Funds and other assets; and (c) to take such further action as the Investment Manager shall deem necessary or appropriate for the management of the Fund. Except as provided for in this Agreement, to the extent consistent with applicable law, the Fund shall not have any authority to retain any additional investment managers or any sub-advisers to manage the investment and reinvestment of the Managed Assets or to substitute the Investment Manager in such capacities without the prior written consent of the Investment Manager.

(2) continuously managing the Managed Assets in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement;
(3) determining the securities to be purchased, sold or otherwise disposed of by the Fund and the timing of such purchases, sales and dispositions;

(1) applicable laws and regulations; and
(2) the registration statement of the Fund and such policies, investment and trading restrictions and risk management techniques as may be adopted by the Board of Directors from time to time (the “Investment Policies”).

3
(j) agree to such placement agent fees, redemption fees, other fees, commissions, and other charges on behalf of the Fund as the Investment Manager deems reasonable in the circumstances, where applicable taking into account all such factors it considers to be relevant (including the quality of research and other services made available to it even if such services are not for the exclusive benefit of the Fund and the cost of such services does not represent the lowest cost available); and
(k) facilitate and assist the Fund with any necessary regulatory filings and audits.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Investment Manager shall be under no obligation to combine or arrange orders so as to obtain reduced charges unless otherwise required under federal securities law. The Investment Manager may use, subject to such procedures as may be adopted by the Board of Directors, affiliates of the Investment Manager as brokers to effect securities transactions for the Fund, and the Fund may pay such commissions to such brokers in such amounts as are permissible under applicable law.
4. Indemnification.
(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Fund shall indemnify the Investment Manager, and any partner, director, officer, employee or agent of the Investment Manager and any of their Affiliates (each an “Indemnified Person”) against any and all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, including, without limitation, amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise, or as fines or penalties, and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, accountants or other professionals incurred in connection with the investigation, defense or disposition of any action, suit, investigation or other proceeding, whether civil or criminal, before any judicial, arbitral, administrative or legislative body, in which such Indemnified Person may be or may have been involved as a party or otherwise, or with which such Indemnified Person may be or may have been threatened, resulting in any way from the performance or non-performance of any Indemnified Person’s duties in respect of the Fund, except to the extent that any such cost, loss, claim, damage, liability or expense shall have been finally determined in a decision on the merits from which there is no further right to appeal in any such action, suit, investigation or other proceeding to have been incurred or suffered by such Indemnified Person by reason of bad faith or gross negligence in the performance or non-performance of its duties under this Agreement (“Disabling Conduct”). The Fund shall, from time to time, advance to an Indemnified Person (to the extent the Fund has funds available and without incurring borrowing expenses for such purpose) fees, costs and expenses incurred and indemnifiable under this Section 4. The Investment Manager agrees, and each other Indemnified Person shall agree as a condition of any such advance, to reimburse the Fund for such advance if it is ultimately determined, as provided in this paragraph, that the Indemnified Person was not entitled to indemnification under this Section 4.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, the provisions of this Section 4 shall not be construed so as to relieve the Indemnified Person of, or provide indemnification with respect to, any liability (including liability under the federal securities laws) to the extent (but only to the extent) that such liability may not be waived, limited or modified under applicable law or that such indemnification would be in violation of applicable law. The provisions of this Section 4, however, shall be construed to effectuate its purpose to the fullest extent permitted by law.

5. Standard of Care and Liabilities.
(a) In the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations or duties under this Agreement, neither the Investment Manager nor any of the Indemnified Persons, nor any of their affiliates, executors, heirs, assigns, successors or other legal representatives (collectively, the “Affiliates”), shall be liable to the Fund for any error of judgment, mistake of law, or any act or omission by any such person relating to the services to be provided under this Agreement.
(b) The parties to this Agreement agree that the obligations of the Fund under this Agreement shall not be binding upon any of the Members or any Directors, officers, employees or agents, whether past, present or future, of the Fund, individually, but are binding only upon the assets and property of the Fund.

The Fund shall, from time to time, inform the Investment Manager as to the custodian and any sub-custodian of the Fund, each broker with whom an account is opened by the Fund, any administrator of the Fund, and any other service providers of the Fund.

However, nothing in this Agreement or in any authority or power-of-attorney shall authorize the Investment Manager at any time to take custody itself or direct to others the custody or control of any Managed Assets, it being expressly understood that such custody and control shall remain at all times with the custodian(s) and sub-custodian(s) of the Fund as appointed by the Fund and/or the Board of Directors, from time to time. The discretionary investment authority granted by this Agreement and any authorization or power-of-attorney executed by the Fund and delivered to any custodian, sub-custodian or broker pursuant this Agreement may be fully relied upon by such custodian, sub-custodian or broker until it receives notice from the Fund of the termination of such authorization or power-of-attorney. The Fund shall be responsible for the payment of any and all commissions, custodian or other charges, and the Investment Manager shall have no responsibility for such payments.

At the request of the Investment Manager, the Fund shall give to the Investment Manager’s auditors reasonable access to documents pertaining to the activities of the Fund during customary business hours and shall permit such auditors to make copies of, or extracts from, such documents at the expense of the requesting party.
