*** These Portfolio Funds are domiciled in Bermuda.

(a) Event driven strategies involve investing in opportunities created by significant transaction events, such as spin-offs, mergers and acquisitions, and reorganizations. These strategies include but are not limited to risk arbitrage, distressed situations investing, special situations, and opportunistic investing.

(b) Global asset allocation strategies seek to exploit opportunities in various global markets. Portfolio Funds employing these strategies have a broad mandate to invest in those markets and instruments which they believe provide the best opportunity. Portfolio Funds employing a global asset allocation strategy may take positions in currencies, sovereign bonds, global equities and equity indices, or commodities.

(c) Long-short strategies seek to profit by taking positions in equities and generally involve fundamental analysis in the investment decision process. Portfolio Fund Managers in these strategies tend to be “stock pickers” and typically manage market exposure by shifting allocations between long and short investments depending on market conditions and outlook. Long-short strategies may comprise investments in one or multiple countries, including emerging markets and one or multiple sectors.

(d) Relative value strategies seek to profit by exploiting pricing inefficiencies between related instruments while remaining long-term neutral to directional price movements in any one market. Relative value strategies consist of an exposure to some second order aspect of the market.

(e) Multi-discipline managers employ a combination of any of the above mentioned strategies.
