Armistice Capital is a value-oriented and event-driven hedge fund that is
focused exclusively on the healthcare and consumer sectors. The Fund will
invest opportunistically across the capital structure, generating proprietary ideas
with the goal of identifying undervalued themes and inflection points in the
market place. The Fund invests primarily in small and mid cap companies, with
a 3-9 month time-frame for catalyst realization. Bottom up financial models are
constructed to assess all components of a company’s capital structure, with an
emphasis on free cash flow development. In all of its investing activities, the
Fund emphasizes capital preservation and seeks to mitigate risk through various
hedging strategies at both position and portfolio levels.

Atika Capital Management invests primarily in publicly-traded global equities,
both long and short, with a particular focus on the healthcare
technology/media/telecommunications (“TMT”), and consumer sectors. Atika
Capital Management employs a fundamentally-driven research process and
believes that investing based on in-depth fundamental analysis will allow one to
obtain higher conviction and afford oneself the opportunity to size a position
aggressively, thus helping to generate a superior return on investment. Atika
believes that there is a time arbitrage in certain segments of the equity market and
those willing to hold positions longer can capitalize on opportunities created by the
intense focus on short-term performance.
Atika has developed a proprietary
model to support buy or short decisions and help determine position sizing.
Individual weightings are determined by probability weighted risk/reward,
liquidity, and size of related holdings. Atika diversifies investments in order to
manage volatility and minimize downside risk in the portfolio, though it may hold
large positions (e.g., exceeding 10%) in individual equities (measured at the time of
investment).
Brad Farber is the Founder, Managing Member & Portfolio Manager of Atika
Capital Management (“ACM”). Prior to founding ACM in September 2012, Mr.
Farber served as a Portfolio Manager for Gilder, Gagnon, Howe & Co., (GGHC) an
investment firm with approximately $5 billion under management, where he
managed a $50 million long/short equity portfolio since January 2001. Before
joining GGHC in April 1999, Mr. Farber spent two years as an equity research
analyst at UBS covering the medical technology and biotechnology sectors. Mr.
Farber is a CFA Charter holder and received a BA in International Relations from
the University of Michigan in 1996.

Bloom Tree is a global, fundamental investment manager that utilizes
primary research to develop original and proprietary views on specific
companies, industrial sectors and the macroeconomic environment to identify
compelling investments. The long portfolio will focus on high-quality
businesses that generate a high return on investment capital (ROIC) and
management teams that demonstrate the ability to allocate capital efficiently.
The short portfolio will focus on businesses with deteriorating fundamentals,
declining earnings power, high valuations with inflated expectations, weak
financial positions and/or poor management teams. Short positions require a
business that is fundamentally flawed with pressure on its terminal value.
Alok Agrawal is the portfolio manager of Bloom Tree Partners. Prior to
Bloom Tree, Mr. Agrawal worked at Tiger Management where he served as
an analyst and co-portfolio manager (2005-2007). Prior to joining Tiger

Game Creek is a U.S. long/short equity fund focused on the consumer, media
and telecom sectors that seeks to generate alpha via a concentrated, “best ideas”
equity portfolio. Game Creek employs a rigorous, bottoms-up due diligence
process to identify companies trading at attractive valuations relative to cash
flow, earnings and / or assets. Looking across the mid to large cap spectrum,
Sean and the team seek out companies where recognized expectations are low
but the business franchise, potential earnings power or proven cash flow suggest
an outsized opportunity to achieve superior risk adjusted returns. Idea
generation stems from company meetings and visits, industry conferences,
financial and trade publications, and valuation screens. To assess company
management, Game Creek will talk to former employees, consultants, board
members, competitors, suppliers, and customers. Utilizing direct and indirect
channel checks, Game Creek gathers as much information as possible to develop
an in-depth mosaic on each company. On the short side, the team seeks to
identify companies with deteriorating fundamentals, inappropriate capital
structures, flawed strategies or excessive expectations.
Sean Murphy is the portfolio manager of Game Creek Capital. Prior to joining
Game Creek in August 2008, Sean Murphy was a senior analyst with Vardon
Capital Management where he followed the consumer, media, and telecom
sectors (2000-2007). Prior to joining Vardon, Mr. Murphy worked as a media
analyst at Credit Suisse First Boston (1997-2000). Mr. Murphy earned a B.A. cum
laude from the University of Notre Dame (1997) and is a holder of the Chartered

an inherent transformational change or event as part of their thesis. Located in
Silicon Valley, Light Street employs a bottom up and top down investment
approach in the TMT space. The team regularly speaks with industry
innovators, founders and thought leaders. These relationships with leading

Lomas Capital uses bottom-up, fundamental analysis and its extensive network of industry
and investment contacts, in conjunction with “street” research to source potential
investment ideas. The key underlying principle behind Lomas’ investment strategy is
finding opportunities that have an asymmetrical risk/reward profile. Each portfolio
manager and analyst has a comprehensive sector focus and a specific research
methodology. Underappreciated and/or emerging themes, secular growth trends,
misunderstood companies, post reorganization special situation opportunities trading at a
discount to fundamental value and companies with attractive private market valuations are
some characteristics that Lomas seeks in its potential positions. Specific investment
opportunities will be developed through a rigorous examination of issuer and industry
fundamentals and will be considered within the context of the overall macroeconomic
environment. Investment opportunities will often be contrarian in nature, although the
Fund’s investment strategy is not strictly wedded to either value or growth. Rather, the
Investment Manager generally will employ a flexible approach which pursues investment
opportunities that have the best risk/reward profile, irrespective of the investment style
employed. Lomas Capital was co-founded in 2012 by Dan Lascano, Charlie LoCastro and
Ron McIntosh (the “Co-Founders”). All three Co-Founders previously worked together for
a decade as senior members of the Caxton Equity Group.
Dan Lascano is Chief Investment Officer and Co-Founder of Lomas. He has over 21 years
of investment experience where he has focused on the consumer sector, and has also
invested across many sectors as a “generalist.” From 1999 to 2011, he was a Senior
Managing Director and Equity Holder of Caxton Associates where he was responsible for
portfolio construction and overall co-management of the equity group.
Charlie LoCastro is a Senior Portfolio Manager and Co-Founder of Lomas. He has over 27
years of investment experience focusing on the industrial and material sectors. From 2002
to 2011 Mr. LoCastro was a Senior Portfolio Manager at Caxton Associates where he was
responsible for, and had discretion over, investments in industrial and material stocks.
Ron McIntosh is a Senior Portfolio Manager and Co-Founder of Lomas. He has over 26
years of investment experience focusing on the financial sector. From 2003 to 2011, Mr.
McIntosh was a Senior Portfolio Manager at Caxton Associates where he was responsible
for, and had discretion over, investments in financial stocks.

Long Pond Capital is a global long/short real estate equity fund with an
intense focus on bottom up fundamental, value oriented stock picking. The
fund manager uses a contrarian, private equity style approach to public equity
investing and seeks to identify complex, asymmetric risk/reward opportunities
in REIT's, Real Estate Operating Companies and Real Estate Related
Companies. The investment team implements a rigorous research process, with
a vigilant concentration on downside protection, to understand a company's
balance sheet, why a security is cheap/expensive and why the security will
cease to be cheap/expensive. As part of the research process, the investment
team will perform in depth asset-by-asset valuations on a prospective
investment, speak to private investors, lenders and real estate brokers, review
similar transactions, tour assets and assess management incentives. Risk of loss
is critical to each investment thesis and therefore the portfolio manager
maintains an intense focus on liquidity, leverage, asset/liability mismatch and
seeks out positions with embedded downside protection.
John Khoury is the founder and portfolio manager of Long Pond Capital. Prior
to starting Long Pond in October 2010, Mr. Khoury spent 9 years at Wesley
Capital, a long short real estate hedge fund, where he progressed from analyst
to co-portfolio manager (2002-2010). Prior to Wesley, John was an analyst at
DLJ Real Estate Capital Partners (2001-2002), and an investment banking
analyst in the real estate group at Lazard (1999-2001). John graduated from the
Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania with a B.S. in Economics

utilizing fundamentally driven research to identify and invest in companies that
meet strict criteria for value and quality across the entire capital structure. They focus
on businesses that are undervalued due to market dislocations, and attempt to seek
out opportunities with an event path to unlock value within a defined time
horizon. The Fund’s strategy encompasses techniques honed by Marc Lehmann
from his career at JANA Partners, Appaloosa and SAC Capital for the identification
of the intersection of multiple dynamics (i.e. event, value, behavioral and technical
factors) to help in the sourcing and monitoring of ideas and investments. Tactical
trading is used as an overlay on its core portfolio and related securities to fully
leverage research and enhance returns. This is done to quickly adjust portfolio
exposures for risk management measures. Post-investment, Riverloft monitors the
securities with a focus on capital preservation and uses its capital markets expertise
to determine opportune exit points, seeking realizations when the firm’s targeted
value is achieved.
Marc Lehmann, Chief Investment Officer , is the founder and Portfolio Manager of
Riverloft and has almost two decades of event driven and value investing experience.
Prior to Riverloft, Mr. Lehmann was a Partner and Director of Research at JANA
Partners from 2002-2010, a hedge fund with over $7bn in AUM at its peak. Prior to

Sachem Head Capital is a value-oriented, long/short hedge fund that will utilize
an activist investment approach within a concentrated portfolio of best ideas. The
Fund employs a rigorous, private equity style research process to understand the
company fundamentals, utilizing both conventional (earnings/operating
multiples) and unconventional metrics (asset value, private market value, value
for control). The Fund will hold 8-16 long positions, with the top 6-8 generally
representing 60% - 80% of long exposure. The Fund will hold 0-15 individual
short positions, including sector and market hedges. Furthermore, Mr. Ferguson
anticipates 0-3 activist investments at any time depending upon the opportunity
set. The Fund views activism as a ‘call option’ on an attractive passive
investment, seeking to deploy capital in companies where Sachem Head can win
as an investor even if they loose as an activist. For passive investments, Mr.
Ferguson generally prefers those with embedded catalysts.
Scott Ferguson is the managing partner and portfolio manager of Sachem Head
Capital. Prior to starting Sachem Head, Mr. Ferguson spent 9 years at Pershing

Mr. Cowen’s belief is that industry fundamentals drive stock performance as
much as individual company performance. Therefore, understanding industry
dynamics from a top down perspective is equally as important as understanding
company fundamentals. Suvretta wants to deploy capital in industries with the
strongest secular growth, owning the best companies in the space. Conversely,
shorting the worst companies in weak and contracting industries. The Fund will
have two components, core long-term investments (60% - 80%), and
opportunistic investments (20% - 40%). Top down macro views integrated into

Tiger Legatus’ investment strategy adheres to a stringent research process in
order to identify investments where it believes the market has substantially
misinterpreted its intrinsic value. The Fund employs a fundamentals based
investment approach with a view toward a medium/long-term investment
period, by investing in equities, long and short. The strategy is based upon a
consistent, repeatable investment process focused on fundamental analysis to
construct a portfolio where both longs and shorts to profitability. Independent
research and conclusions are core to such a process. To generate investment
ideas, the Fund draws on knowledge and experience within core industries that
its investment professionals have gained over their investment careers. At times,
investment ideas come from adjacent industries where observations of change in
the core industries could result in investment themes in other industries. When
an investment idea has been identified the portfolio manager and his team will
conduct in-depth research, which includes company visits, management
meetings, interviewing suppliers and customers, and analyzing competitors,
with each of these efforts focused on developing an investment thesis as to why
the market is misinterpreting a company’s intrinsic value.
Jesse Ro, Portfolio Manager, founded Tiger Legatus in December 2009. Prior to
founding Tiger Legatus, Mr. Ro was a Portfolio Manager and Analyst at Viking
Global Investors from 2004 to 2008, where he managed a stand-alone long/short
equity portfolio from 2005 to 2008, investing in a wide variety of industries and

Group and in the Technology Group within the Investment Banking Division.

An investment in the Fund is speculative, involves significant risk and is not suitable for all investors. It is possible that you may lose some or all of your investment and attempts by the Fund to
manage the risks of investing in Portfolio Funds does not imply that your investment in the Fund is low risk or without risk. An investment in the Fund is illiquid and is not suitable for you if you
need access to the money you invest. You may not have access to the money you invest for an indefinite period of time and you should not expect to be able to sell your Shares regardless of how
your investment in the Fund performs. You do not have the right to require the Fund to redeem or repurchase your Shares although the Fund may periodically offer to repurchase Shares on such
terms as may be determined by the Fund's Board of Trustees ("Board"). Shares are not, and are not expected to be, listed for trading on any securities exchange. To the Fund's knowledge, there is
no, nor will there be, any secondary trading market for the Shares. Shares are subject to substantial restrictions on transferability and resale and may not be transferred or resold except as
permitted under the Fund's Declaration of Trust. Because you may not be able to sell your Shares, you will not be able to reduce your investment exposure to the Fund on any market downturn.
Please see additional disclosure of Risks in the Prospectus.

Control Risk – The Adviser will not have control of, or have the ability to exercise influence over, the trading policies or strategies of a Portfolio Fund. Investment decisions of the Portfolio Funds
are also made independently of each other so that, at any particular time, one Portfolio Fund may be purchasing shares of an issuer whose shares are being sold at the same time by another
Portfolio Fund. Transactions of this sort could result in the Fund directly or indirectly incurring certain transaction costs without accomplishing any net investment result.
Expense Layering Risk – In addition to its own expenses, the Fund will also bear its allocable share of the costs and expenses of each Portfolio Fund, including its allocable share of the
management and incentive compensation paid to an Investment Manager. As a result, the Fund’s investments in the Portfolio Funds may result in the Fund paying higher expenses than other
funds with similar investment objectives and strategies or if it invested directly in the securities held by the Portfolio Funds. Also, each Investment Manager generally will be entitled to receive a
management fee of between 1% and 2% and a performance-based allocation, expected to range up to 20% of a Portfolio Fund’s net profits.
Long/Short Equity Strategy Risk – The success of a long/short equity strategy is contingent upon an Investment Manager’s ability to correctly identify investment opportunities with the highest
probability of success (long positions) and/or those with the highest probability of failure (short positions). Substantial losses may be recognized as a result of the implementation of this strategy.


Before making an investment decision, you or your adviser should consider factors such as net worth, income, age, risk tolerance and liquidity needs in evaluating whether the Fund is a suitable
investment for you. Short-term investors and investors who cannot bear the loss of some or all of their investment or the risks associated with the limited liquidity of an investment in the Fund
should not invest in the Fund.
