Description of Firm and Principal Owners The August Group Capital Limited (“August”, the “Firm”, “we” or “us”) is a Canadian corporation that was formed in 2020. Based in Toronto, Ontario, August is wholly owned by The August Group Limited, which is principally owned by Matthew Shannon (through corporate/LLC entities), the founder of August. August became registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an investment advisor in 2021. In Canada, August is registered as a portfolio manager and exempt market dealer with the securities regulatory authorities in Ontario, Québec, Manitoba, Alberta and British Columbia, Canada. August is also registered as an investment fund manager in Ontario, Canada. August’s activities with respect to non-U.S. clients may differ from those described generally herein and August may provide additional or different services to non-U.S. clients. Furthermore, any discussion of activities with respect to non-U.S. clients is intended solely to provide recipients a more complete understanding of August’s business. B. Types of Advisory Services Offered August Family Office Clients receiving the August Family Office service receive the full suite of August’s offerings: investment management, Family Office services, and Lifestyle services. Family Office services include assistance with accounting, financial reporting, banking and credit, bill payment, cash flow and liquidity planning, major purchases, insurance planning, estate planning, cross-border planning, and tax and legal matters. Third party providers may be engaged for clients receiving the August Family Office services, at the client’s expenses. Depending on the nature of the services, Family Office advisory services may be provided through August Group Capital Ltd. or through August Group Legacy Ltd. August Lifestyle services are concierge and lifestyle services unique to each client’s needs. These services may include travel planning and management, private aviation management, entertainment and event planning, vehicle management, property management, personalized home services, and health and wellness planning. The August Family Office service is intended for high net worth and ultra-high net worth individuals and entities who have need of and intend to use the full suite of services offered by August and its affiliates, not only its investment management services. August Athlete Advisory 4 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 Clients receiving the August Athlete Advisory service receive investment management services from us, and a limited suite of Family Office services, including assistance with budgeting and cash flow management, assistance with establishing banking infrastructure, coordination of accounts, and assistance with external advisors. The August Athlete Advisory service model is intended specifically for early-career athletes, who require assistance setting up their financial lives. It is intended that once such athletes progress in their career, they will move to receiving the August Family Office service (or the August Capital Allocation service, if that is more suitable to their needs at the time). August Capital Allocation Clients receiving the August Capital Allocation service receive investment management services from us. Our investment management services are explained throughout this document and in your Investment Management Agreement. Clients receiving the August Capital Allocation service do not receive Family Office or Lifestyle services. However, Capital Allocation clients can engage us, on an ad hoc basis at hourly rates, for Family Office or Lifestyle services that the client may require. The August Endurance Fund August also manages the August Endurance Fund (the “Fund”). The Fund is organized as a master-feeder structure: investors subscribe indirectly through one of two feeder funds, each of which invests substantially all of its assets in a single master fund. US investors invest through the August Endurance (US) Fund LP, a Delaware limited partnership. The Master Fund and the US Feeder each rely on the exclusion from “investment company” status under Section 3(c)(1) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, and interests in the US Feeder are offered in reliance on the private placement exemption in Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933. The Fund is is classified as a fund of funds, investing in other private funds. The Fund offers two classes of units, both denominated in US dollars. Class AG Units (internal class units) are generally available only to discretionary managed account clients of August. C. Client Tailored Services and Client Imposed Restrictions Prior to providing investment advisory services to a client, August will first draft an Investment Policy Statement (“IPS”) for the client, and confirm with the client the parameters set out within it, taking into account the client’s personal circumstances, financial condition, investment objectives and goals, investment time horizon, and risk profile. August will rely upon this Investment Policy Statement when providing discretionary portfolio management services to the client. The client is responsible for advising August of any material change in the client’s personal circumstances, financial condition, investment objectives and goals, 5 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 investment time horizon, and risk profile that may affect whether the parameters in the client’s IPS remain suitable for the client. In the IPS, or otherwise, clients may impose restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities. D. Participation in Wrap Programs August does not participate in any wrap fee program. E. Amount of Client Assets Managed As of December 31, 2025, the following represents the amount of client assets under management by the Firm on a discretionary and non-discretionary basis: Type of Account Discretionary Non-Discretionary Total: Assets Under Management $678,672,639 $61,625,529 $740,298,168 ITEM 5: FEES AND COMPENSATION A. Compensation for Advisory Services The specific advisory fees charged by August will be documented in each client’s written advisory agreement. August Family Office As the August Family Office service extends beyond investment management to provide a full suite of services intended to help clients manage numerous aspects of their wealth and their lives, fees for the Family Office service are charged on net worth. For clients receiving our Family Office service, we will charge a fee based on a percentage equal to an annual rate of 0.85% of net worth, which may be adjusted based on complexity. Net worth is defined as being the value of assets less the value of liabilities, subject to certain exclusions that may be captured in clients’ investment management agreement. For this purpose, assets may include assets held directly or indirectly, assets managed by third-party portfolio managers or invested in funds, assets that August manages directly, and cash and cash equivalents, among other assets. Liabilities may include mortgage debt, lines of credit, and other debt we determine from time to time at our discretion. August Athlete Advisory 6 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 For clients receiving our Athlete Advisory service, the fee schedule is based on the value of investments overseen by August – that is, “assets under management” – including funds managed by third-party portfolio managers and invested in funds, as well as funds invested in alternative investments and private equity investments. The annual fee is 1.00% on assets under management. August Capital Allocation For clients receiving our Capital Allocation service, the fee schedule is based on the value of investments overseen by August – that is, “assets under management” – including funds managed by third-party portfolio managers and invested in funds, as well as funds invested in alternative investments and private equity investments. The annual fee ranges from 1.00% of assets under management up to $5 million, to 0.40% of assets under management over $200 million. The annual fee differs based on the quantum of assets under management and is calculated on a marginal basis. Adjusted Fee Approaches As is set out above, August uses standardized fee approaches for its Family Office, Athlete Advisory and Capital Allocation service offerings. From time to time, clients may negotiate adjusted fee approaches that differ from August’s standardized fee approaches. Whether a client may have an adjusted fee approach depends on a number of factors, including:  ongoing recognition of legacy fee structures that August no longer uses;  clients having specific assets or liabilities (for Family Office clients) where there is a reasonable rationale for the exclusion of such assets or liabilities in the calculation of net worth (e.g. August provides no advice or Family Office services in relation to such assets or liabilities);  clients being on a fixed fee to reflect that they are receiving limited services from us;  clients requesting a trial period, following which they will revert to August’s standardized fee approaches (if they agree to continue with August after the trial period); or  clients needing some, but not all, of the services August offers. Any adjustments to August’s standardized fee approaches are reviewed and approved by August’s management and compliance team. Fee negotiations are at the sole discretion of August. B. Billing Method 7 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 Fees are usually deducted from a designated client account or accounts to facilitate billing. The client must consent in advance to direct debiting of their account. Payment by check is also acceptable. By signing August’s advisory agreement, and the selected custodian’s account opening documents, you will be authorizing the withdrawal of August’s advisory fees from your account. The withdrawal of these fees will be performed by the selected custodian or through a qualified, unaffiliated third-party processor. This custodian or processor will remit these advisory fees directly to our firm. You are encouraged to verify the accuracy of fee calculations and compare the statements provided to you by August with the statements from the custodian(s). The custodian does not verify the accuracy of the advisory fees charged to you. C. Other Fees and Expenses In addition to the service fees paid to August, clients will also incur certain charges imposed by other third parties, such as broker-dealers, third-party portfolio managers, custodians, trust companies, banks and other financial institutions. These additional charges will include securities brokerage commissions, transaction fees, custodial fees, management and performance fees charged by investment advisors selected by August, margin costs, charges imposed directly by a mutual fund or ETF in a client's account, as disclosed in the fund's prospectus (e.g., fund management fees and other fund expenses), deferred sales charges, odd- lot differentials, transfer taxes, wire transfer and electronic fund fees, and other fees and taxes on brokerage accounts and securities transactions. It is important to note that if a client retains a third-party portfolio manager to be overseen by August, the client will pay them fees in accordance with the agreement that you enter into with them, which will be in addition to any fees you pay to August. August recommends third-party portfolio managers or custodians based on a number of factors, including August’s knowledge and experience, August’s prior experience with the third-party portfolio manager or custodian, and fee discounts or other offerings that August may have secured from the third-party portfolio manager or custodian for its clients. Thus, it is important for clients to understand that they may be directly and indirectly paying two – or possibly three - levels of advisory fees: one layer of fees and expenses at the fund or independent manager level, one layer of advisory fees to a third-party portfolio manager (if applicable) and one layer of advisory fees to August. It may be possible to purchase such investments directly, without using the services of August and without incurring our advisory fees. In addition, the service fee charged by August does not include fees for services obtained from third party service providers that may be engaged as part of the Family Office service, including accountant fees, tax returns, real estate agents, insurance premiums, legal advice, etc. All such fees are payable separately and in addition to the Firm’s service fee. 8 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 Any fees that you pay will impact the returns that are generated in your account by decreasing those returns. Since returns are compounded over time, the greater the value left in the account, the greater the potential to earn higher returns over time. Therefore, higher fees serve to reduce the total returns earned over time. When we charge a fee based on your net worth or assets under management, the more assets that are in your account, the more you will pay in fees. We therefore may have an incentive to encourage you to increase the assets on which we can charge our service fee. Furthermore, in some circumstances, August may have additional agreements with clients that are separate from the Family Office service, the Athlete Advisory service, or the Capital Allocation service. For example, August may have marketing agreements with clients where August may receive a percentage of paid endorsements that August is involved in securing. The fees and compensation set out in any such agreements are not related to advisory services, and are distinct from fees and compensation paid as part of the services set out above under “Compensation for Advisory Services.” The August Endurance Fund The Fund offers two classes of units, both denominated in US dollars. Class AG Units (internal class units) are generally available only to discretionary managed account clients of August; they are not charged a management fee and are not subject to any performance allocation. C lass I Units (external class units) are offered to investors who are not discretionary managed account clients of August; they bear a 0.85% per annum management fee and are subject to a 5% performance allocation. These amounts are calculated inside the Fund and reduce the Fund’s net asset value and, correspondingly, the return on Fund investments, even though they are not billed to clients directly. For all investors in the Fund, it is important to understand that the August Endurance Fund bears (a) its own organizational and operating expenses and (b) its pro rata share of the fees and expenses of the underlying funds in which it invests, including any management fees, performance or incentive fees, and operating expenses charged at the underlying-fund level. These amounts are calculated inside the Fund and reduce the Fund’s net asset value and, correspondingly, the return on your investment, even though they are not billed to you directly and even though August charges no management fee or performance allocation on your Class AG Units. D. Termination of Services August bills clients quarterly in arrears. Either the client or August may terminate the Firm’s services without penalty, as per the terms of the Investment Management Agreement. E. Outside Compensation for Sale of Securities 9 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 August’s personnel include licensed representatives of August Group Legacy, an affiliated licensed insurance agency. Accordingly, these personnel may recommend insurance products and receive commissions when insurance products are purchased through August Group Legacy. A conflict of interest exists as these personnel have an incentive to recommend insurance products through August Group Legacy based on the compensation they will receive. Clients are under no obligation, however, to purchase any insurance products through August Group Legacy. ITEM 6: PERFORMANCE-BASED FEES AND SIDE-BY-SIDE MANAGEMENT August does not charge performance-based fees (i.e., fees calculated based on a share of capital gains upon or capital appreciation of the funds or any portion of the funds of an advisory client). As a result, the Firm does not engage in side-by-side management of accounts that are charged a performance-based fee by August with accounts that are charged another type of fee (such as assets under management). ITEM 7: TYPES OF CLIENTS August provides advisory services primarily to individuals and high net worth individuals, as well as to families, trusts, estates, a private fund, and other business entities. ITEM 8: METHODS OF ANALYSIS, INVESTMENT STRATEGIES AND RISK OF LOSS A. Methods of Analysis and Investment Strategies In formulating investment advice and managing assets, August will utilize fundamental analysis and conduct due diligence, including reviewing the respective portfolio managers and investment team, the firm’s track records, and, in certain cases, conducting operational due diligence. Clients should be aware that investing in securities involves risk of loss that they should be able to bear. B. Investment Strategies The primary investment strategy used to implement any investment advice given to clients is asset allocation. Based on the client’s Investment Policy Statement (IPS) and, in particular, client-driven factors such as desired rate of return, aversion to risk, investment time horizon, tax consequences, country of residency and other constraints, investments are diversified across different asset classes and investment styles. C. Risk of Loss Investing in securities involves a significant risk of loss, and all investments have certain risks that are borne by the investor. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Therefore, 10 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 clients should never assume that future performance of any specific investment or investment strategy will be profitable. Because of the inherent risk of loss associated with investing, August is unable to represent, guarantee, or even imply that its services and methods of analysis can or will predict future results or insulate you from losses due to market corrections or declines. When considering an investment, or your investment approach, clients should carefully consider whether it is appropriate in light of investment experience, objectives, financial resources, risk tolerance and other relevant circumstances. Clients should understand the nature of what you invest in and the extent of your exposure to risk. Depending on the nature of the investment, the nature of the investment risks associated with it will vary. August monitors the risk of the investment portfolios of our portfolio management clients to ensure that they are meeting their objectives and remain within their risk constraints. Generally, the value of securities will fluctuate in accordance with changes in the financial condition of the issuers of those securities, market conditions generally, and other factors. There is a strong relationship between the amount of risk associated with a particular investment and its potential to increase in value in the long term. Some risks associated generally with investing include:  Capital risk: the risk that you may lose the money you invest.  Credit risk: the risk that a borrower (e.g. the issuer of a bond, a private company obtaining private loans) will not be able to repay principal or interest to the lender when it comes due.  Market risk: the risk that investments in equities and investments that are exposed to the equity markets will be affected by changes in the stock market. Stock market changes can be caused by a number of factors, including interest rate fluctuations, changes in market outlook, and changes in economic, social or political climates.  Interest rate risk: the risk of losses due to changes in interest rates (e.g. investments in debt instruments may become less valuable when interest rates rise because newer debt instruments will pay a current, higher interest rate).  Foreign currency risk: the risk that currency movements and fluctuating exchange rates affect the value of investments in foreign securities or income such securities pay.  Foreign markets risk: the risk that companies in other markets, including less developed markets, or the securities they issue, may be more difficult to sell or may decline in value due to political, regulatory, social, or economic change.  Inflation risk: the risk that the value of money may erode over time. 11 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026  Liquidity risk: the risk that your investment may be difficult or impossible to convert into cash when required.  Concentration risk: the risk of loss from investments being concentrated in in a particular issuer, group of issuers or sector, or in a single country or region. Concentration in any one of these means that the value of a portfolio of investments tends to be more volatile than a more diversified portfolio.  Asset allocation risk: the risk that one or more asset classes to which an investment portfolio is allocated underperforms relative to the other asset classes in the portfolio.  Cybersecurity / technology risk: the risk of loss resulting from a cybersecurity incident (e.g. fraud, phishing, hacking). D. Risks of Investing in a Private Fund Private funds are illiquid in nature and investments are subject to redemption restrictions as set forth in the fund’s constating documents (e.g. the Limited Partnership Agreement). The August Endurance Fund’s investment program involves, without limitation, risks associated with lack of liquidity, third-party performance risks as a result of the Fund’s structure as a fund of funds, systems risks and other risks inherent in the Fund’s activities. An investment in the Fund is subject to the lock-up periods, redemption notice requirements, gates, suspension rights and other restrictions described in the Fund’s LPA and other offering documents. Certain investment techniques of the Fund, including the use of leverage, can, in certain circumstances, substantially increase the impact of adverse market movements to which the Fund may be subject. The Fund expects to invest in securities that are illiquid and subject to resale and redemption restrictions. There can be no assurance that the Fund will correctly evaluate the nature and magnitude of the various factors that could affect the value of such investments. An investment in the Fund involves risk, and investors may lose all or a substantial portion of their investment. Specific risks of the August Endurance Fund are detailed in the risk disclosure in the Fund’s offering documents and include:  Third Party Risk: Because the Fund invests through independently managed underlying funds and investment vehicles, the Fund is exposed to the investment, operational, valuation, liquidity, leverage, compliance and personnel risks of those vehicles and their managers. August generally will not control the investment decisions, operations or governance of an underlying vehicle and may have limited ability to obtain information, influence decisions, remove an underlying manager or exit an investment.  Liquidity and Redemption Risk: The Fund expects to invest substantially in private funds and other investments that may provide limited, irregular or no redemption or secondary-market liquidity. The liquidity available to the Fund from its underlying 12 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 investments may not correspond with the redemption rights offered to investors in the Fund. If available cash and realizable investments are insufficient to satisfy redemption requests, the Fund may apply a gate, suspend or defer redemptions, postpone payment of redemption proceeds, establish reserves, borrow funds, or designate particular investments for separate treatment, in each case as permitted by the Fund’s constating documents. An investor may therefore be unable to redeem when desired and may receive proceeds later than expected or, where permitted, in a form other than cash.  Credit Risk: The value of fixed income and other credit-sensitive investments may be affected by the ability of issuers, guarantors, counterparties, or other obligated parties to make payments of principal and interest when due. An actual or perceived decline in the credit quality of an issuer may result in a decrease in the market value and liquidity of a security. In extreme cases, an issuer may default on its obligations, resulting in partial or complete loss of the investment. Credit risk may be heightened during periods of economic uncertainty, rising interest rates, or market stress, particularly for lower-rated or non-investment-grade securities.  Leverage Risk: Leverage involves using borrowed money or investment techniques that increase an investor’s exposure to a particular investment. Leverage can enhance returns when investments perform well, but it can also significantly increase losses when investments decline in value. Because leverage magnifies investment results, investors may experience greater volatility and may lose substantially more than they would have in a comparable investment that does not use leverage. The Fund may incur indebtedness and may obtain leveraged exposure. In addition, underlying funds, investment vehicles and portfolio companies may use leverage independently of the Fund. Leverage can magnify both gains and losses, increase volatility, require the posting of collateral or the sale of assets at disadvantageous times, and increase the risk that the Fund or an underlying investment will be unable to meet its obligations. Because leverage may exist at multiple levels of the structure, the Fund’s aggregate economic exposure may be greater than the amount of its invested capital.  Hedging Risk: Hedging involves using investment techniques or instruments designed to reduce the impact of adverse market movements. While hedging may help reduce certain risks, it does not eliminate risk and may not work as intended. A hedge can reduce potential gains as well as losses, and investors may incur additional costs associated with hedging strategies. If the hedge is ineffective, investors may experience losses despite the use of hedging techniques.  Underlying Manager and Due Diligence Risk: The Fund’s results will depend substantially on the skill, judgment, integrity and continued service of underlying managers and other third parties. Although August conducts due diligence before and during an investment, due diligence may not identify every material risk, 13 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 misstatement, operational weakness, conflict or instance of misconduct. Information received from an underlying manager may be incomplete, inaccurate or delayed, and underlying managers may change their strategies, personnel, valuation practices or use of leverage without the Fund’s approval. Clients investing in an investment fund or private equity fund will be bound by the redemption provisions in that fund’s documentation (as well as all other provisions), because those provisions are legally binding. Such redemption provisions can be restrictive and require lengthy advance notice prior to redemption, which means that the client could be restricted from receiving a return on their investment for a lengthy period of time. This is known as an illiquid investment. Clients should ensure they are comfortable with a long-term commitment of capital prior to investing in any such investment product. A description of the risks associated with any specific investment is included in the offering documentation associated with that product. ITEM 9: DISCIPLINARY INFORMATION Registered investment advisers such as August are required to disclose all material facts regarding any legal or disciplinary event that would be material to a client’s or prospective client’s evaluation of the Firm or the integrity of its management. August has not been subject to any such legal or disciplinary event, and thus has no information to disclose with respect to this Item. ITEM 10: OTHER FINANCIAL INDUSTRY ACTIVITIES AND AFFILIATIONS Neither August, nor any member of its management is registered as a securities broker-dealer, or a futures commission merchant, commodity pool operator or commodity trading advisor. The Firm does not have any affiliation with any related person who is a broker-dealer, investment company, other investment advisor, financial planning firm, commodity pool operator, commodity trading adviser or futures commission merchant, banking or thrift institution, accounting firm, law firm, insurance company or agency, pension consultant, real estate broker or dealer, or an entity that creates or packages limited partnerships. August does not receive compensation directly or indirectly from other advisers that creates a material conflict of interest, nor does it have other business relationships with advisers that would create a material conflict of interest. August provides services to a client who has an ownership interest in August’s parent company, which is a conflict of interest since August has an incentive to favor this client when providing services, including recommending third-party investment managers and allocating investment opportunities to clients. To help mitigate this conflict, August has policies and procedures in 14 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 place to ensure that this client does not receive favorable treatment. Separately, August has taken steps to ensure that any recommendation it makes on behalf of clients with regard to the use of a custodian or third-party investment manager will not directly benefit this client (e.g., lower fees paid by the client for its own accounts). August is also affiliated with August Group Legacy, a licensed insurance agency in Canada. Certain personnel of August are licensed representatives of August Group Legacy and may receive commissions when insurance products are purchased through this entity. As a result, there is a conflict of interest as August has an incentive to recommend insurance products through August Group Legacy. Clients are under no obligation, however, to purchase any insurance products through this entity. Because August manages the Fund, the Fund is a proprietary product. Proprietary products give rise to a conflict of interest because when August recommends or select an investments for client accounts, August may have financial and business incentives to recommend its own products over a comparable product managed by an unrelated third party. August manage this conflict by ensuring that, for discretionary portfolio management clients, August does not charge any additional management or performance fees for the Fund. (Such clients do, however, indirectly bear the Fund's own operating expenses and its pro rata share of the underlying funds’ fees and expenses, as described under “Other Fees and Expenses”). Additionally, August employees are not compensated in a manner that rewards or promotes the sale of the Fund over other investment options. The Fund is a fund-of-funds, meaning that it invests in underlying funds and other investment products, and none of the underlying investments of the Fund are related or connected to August. The following additional conflicts apply to the August Endurance Fund:  August offers units of the Fund in different classes that carry different terms as between Class AG investors (i.e. August’s own discretionary portfolio management clients) and Class I investors. These differences extend beyond fees to a range of economic and non- economic terms, including management and performance fees; minimum investment amounts; redemption frequency and notice periods; lock-up periods; early redemption fees; the application of redemption gates and suspension rights; and reporting and information rights. Because August controls the design of, and access to, each class, a conflict arises where differential terms could favour one group over another, e.g. by granting its own discretionary clients preferential liquidity at the expense of external investors, or by favouring higher-fee external relationships. August maintains policies and controls to manage this conflict.  As the Fund’s manager, August decides which expenses are borne by the Fund and which by August. This is a material conflict in that August may be incentivized to charge Fund investors for costs that it should bear. August manages this conflict by following 15 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 expense allocation policies to ensure that only permissible expenses are charged to the Fund. ITEM 11: CODE OF ETHICS, PARTICIPATION OR INTEREST IN CLIENT TRANSACTIONS AND PERSONAL TRADING A. Description of Code of Ethics The principals and employees of August have adopted a Code of Ethics for the purpose of instructing its personnel in their ethical obligations and to provide rules for their personal securities transactions. The Firm owes a duty of loyalty, fairness and good faith towards its clients, and the obligation to adhere not only to the specific provisions of the Code but to the general principles that guide the Code. The Code of Ethics covers a range of topics that include the following: general ethical principles, receipt and giving of gifts and entertainment, reporting personal securities trading, exceptions to reporting securities trading, initial public offerings and private placements, reporting violations, and the distribution of the Code of Ethics. We will provide a copy of the Code of Ethics to any client or prospective client upon request. B. Participation or Interest in Client Transactions As part of August’s fiduciary duty to its clients, the Firm and its supervised persons seek at all times to put the interests of its clients first, and at all times are required to adhere to the Firm’s Code of Ethics. August’s principals and employees may have positions in securities and funds that we also recommend to clients. August’s recommendations to clients may differ from client to client, based on each client’s unique circumstances. The Firm may also recommend the purchase of a security for one client while recommending the sale of that security for another. However, as a fiduciary, August endeavors to act for the benefit of clients and place clients’ interests before its own. Similarly, client transactions have priority over transactions in securities and other investments of which our principals and employees may own. Principals and employees may participate with clients in block trades and must adhere to the Firm’s personal trading policies and procedures at all times. August permits employees to invest in the Fund. Employee co-investment can create conflicts (e.g. August may pressure employees to favour the Fund, or employees may attempt to time personal subscriptions or redemptions using non-public information about Fund performance or valuation). August addresses this conflict though a combination of controls, including the requirement that employees investing in the fund receive no preferential terms and remain subject to August’s rules on personal-trading pre-clearance and reporting requirements. 16 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 To help mitigate any real or potential conflicts of interest associated with these practices, the Chief Compliance Officer of August reviews employee trades involving reportable securities each quarter and holding reports annually. Such reviews help ensure that personal trading does not disadvantage clients. A “principal transaction” occurs where an adviser, acting as principal for its own account or the account of an affiliate, buys securities from or sells securities to an advisory client. A “cross transaction” occurs where an adviser arranges a transaction between two advisory client accounts. From time to time, August may cause the account of a discretionary client to acquire or dispose of interests in the Fund. Such a transaction may be treated as a cross transaction or, depending on the facts, a principal transaction. These transactions give rise to a conflict of interest: August may have financial incentive to direct client assets into its own proprietary product (although Class I Units have no management fee or performance allocation), and August and its personnel may have economic interests in the Fund and in the participating vehicles that differ from those of the investing client. August addresses this conflict through disclosure and consent, consistent with its fiduciary duties. August discloses the nature of the conflict in this Brochure. Where a transaction is or may be characterized as a principal transaction (including where August, together with its owners, personnel and affiliates, holds in the aggregate more than 25% of the Fund), August obtains the client's written consent before completion of the transaction on a transaction-by-transaction basis, and does not rely on blanket consent; in practice, August obtains such consent by having the client execute the subscription and related documents for each investment in, or disposition of interests in, the Fund. Where such aggregate ownership is 25% or less, August treats the transaction as a cross transaction. August may, at the outset of a client’s investment in the Fund, request that the client provide a blanket consent to subsequent transactions in the Fund, as a supplement to the client’s investment advisory agreement with August. Where this is the case, August relies on the client’s blanket consent and the disclosure contained in this Brochure. Apart from investments in the Fund as described above, it is August’s policy not to enter into principal or cross transactions on behalf of client accounts unless August has provided the written disclosure and obtained the client consent required by Section 206(3) of the Advisers Act in advance of the transaction. ITEM 12: BROKERAGE PRACTICES A. Factors Used to Select Custodians and/or Broker-Dealers Custodians and broker-dealers will be recommended by August based on the firm’s duty to seek “best execution,” which is the obligation to seek execution of securities transactions for a client on the most favorable terms for the client under the circumstances. Clients will not 17 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 necessarily pay the lowest commission or commission equivalent and August may also consider the market expertise and research access provided by the custodian or broker-dealer. August will not charge a premium or commission on transactions, beyond the actual cost imposed by the custodian or broker-dealer. B. Research and Other Soft Dollar Benefits The Firm does not have any arrangements to receive soft dollar benefits in connection with client securities transactions. August may receive research and other products and services from custodians and broker-dealers. C. Brokerage for Client Referrals August does not have any arrangements to receive client referrals from any broker-dealer or third party, other than as described in Item 14 below. D. Directed Brokerage The Firm does not require clients to execute transactions through a specified broker-dealer. However, August may recommend that a client use the services of a particular third-party portfolio manager, custodian or bank. In cases where either August or a client recommends that a specific custodian or broker-dealer be used to execute advisory transactions, August may be unable to achieve more favorable execution of client transactions. In addition, clients may pay higher transaction costs as a result of a broker-directed account by a client. E. Aggregation of Orders August may aggregate (“block trade”) sale and purchase orders with other client accounts that have similar orders being made at the same time under the management of the Firm, if in the Firm’s judgment aggregation is reasonably likely to result in an overall economic benefit to the client. Such benefits may include better transaction prices and lower trade execution costs. If all aggregate orders do not fill at the same price, August may cause the client and each similar order to pay or receive the average prices at which the orders were filled. If such orders cannot be fully executed under prevailing market conditions, August may allocate the securities traded among clients and each similar order in a manner which it considers equitable, taking into account the size of the order placed, the client’s cash position, investment objective of the account, and liquidity of the security. ITEM 13: REVIEW OF ACCOUNTS A. Review of Accounts The Firm’s managed accounts are reviewed on an at least an annual basis and take into account the overall asset allocation of the client’s portfolio and any changes to the personal 18 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 circumstances, financial situation, investment needs and objectives, investment knowledge, risk profile, or investment time horizon of the client. B. Review Triggers The Firm’s managed accounts are reviewed with regard to the overall asset allocation of the portfolio and in light of the client’s investment objectives and risk tolerance. Triggers for investment reviews may include, but are not limited to: • Deposits or withdrawals • Changes in third-party investment managers • Significant changes in the client’s situation or in the client’s objectives • Re-balancing of accounts  Change in country of residence  Client request C. Regular Reports August typically sends written quarterly reports to all clients. The reports include portfolio holdings summaries and performance reports. For clients receiving the Capital Allocation service, accounts, assets or other investments that the client does not want to be actively managed by the Firm will generally not be included in August’s quarterly reports. In contrast, such assets will generally be included in August’s quarterly reports for clients receiving the firm’s Family Office service. For clients who also open accounts with third-party portfolio managers, the third-party portfolio manager that you open an account with will also be responsible for providing statements in accordance with the agreement that the client enters into with them and in accordance with their legal obligations. Clients are urged to carefully compare statements sent by August with statements sent by other third parties, such as those sent by the client’s custodian. Account reporting may be delivered in hard copy to a mailing address or may be delivered electronically. August requests consent to deliver such information and reporting electronically in it account opening documentation, but clients may request to receive account reporting in hard copy. ITEM 14: CLIENT REFERRALS AND OTHER COMPENSATION A. Referrals to August August enters into written arrangements with third parties to act as promoters or solicitors for August’s investment advisory services. Referral relationships, where applicable, will be fully disclosed to each client to the extent required by applicable law. August will verify each 19 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 promoter/solicitor is properly registered in all appropriate jurisdictions. All such referral activities will be conducted in accordance with the Advisers Act, where applicable. Advisory fees paid to August by clients referred by promoters/solicitors are not increased as a result of any referral relationship. August will disclose any referral arrangement that applies to a client, since it is important for the client to understand and consider that the third-party referrer will be compensated by August for the referral of business to August, and that, therefore, the third-party referrer may be incentivized to recommend August over other firms. Under no circumstances will a client pay August more in fees because of having come to August through a referral. August has adopted several procedures to ensure it determines that accepting a referral is in a referred client’s best interest. These procedures include (i) requiring Chief Compliance Officer approval of any referral arrangement, (ii) conducting due diligence on potential third-party referrers, (iii) only onboarding a referred client if the firm determines that its services are suitable for that client and that client wishes to proceed to engage the firm as its portfolio manager, (iv) not increasing the amount of the management fee that would otherwise be paid by a referred client to the firm for the same service or product as a result of August being obligated to pay a portion of the management fees it receives from a referred client to the third-party referrer, and (v) keeping records of all payments related to the firm’s referral arrangements. B. Referrals from August August recommends third-party portfolio managers or a custodian to clients. August recommends third-party portfolio managers or custodians based on a number of factors, including August’s knowledge and experience, August’s prior experience with the third-party portfolio manager or custodian, and fee discounts or other offerings that August may have secured from the third-party portfolio manager or custodian for its clients. August does not receive compensation from any of the third-party portfolio managers or custodians it may recommend, and has no mutual referral arrangements in place with any of the third-party portfolio managers or custodians it may recommend. From time to time, August will refer clients to a third party service provider who does not provide investment management services, typically to provide services related to our Family Office and Lifestyle service offerings. For example, August will refer to accountants, tax advisors, lawyers, or similar professionals. We identify third party service providers to refer clients to based on a number of factors, including our prior experience with these providers, our industry knowledge, recommendations from others, or special rates or offerings that we may secure from these providers, where applicable. However, third party service providers are responsible for the quality and accuracy of their own work, and clients are not obligated to use any third party service providers August 20 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 may refer them to and may use third party service providers of their own choosing. We do not receive compensation from third party service providers for such referrals. ITEM 15: CUSTODY Occasionally, August receives checks and income tax returns on behalf of our clients. In such cases, August will contact the client for instructions regarding which account the cheques or returns should be deposited into. For certain clients of August Group with their assets custodied at RBC USA, August Group is authorized by the client to make certain money movements from investment accounts on their behalf. An example of this could be to meet a capital call for a private investment. August may also, from time to time, be authorized by clients to make purchases on a client’s behalf per specific directions from a client, as part of its Lifestyle service offering. These activities give August custody. To ensure transparency and accountability, we have enlisted the services of a public company accounting oversight board (PCAOB) auditing firm to conduct surprise audits. August has implemented policies and procedures regarding the receipt of checks, its arrangement with RBC USA, and the making of purchases on a client’s behalf. August also has the authority and ability to debit its fees directly from clients’ accounts, August may be deemed to have custody with regard to such accounts, pursuant to Rule 206(4)-2 of the Advisers Act. To mitigate any potential conflicts of interests, all client assets are maintained with an independent qualified custodian. Furthermore, clients will receive statements on at least a quarterly basis directly from the qualified custodian that holds and maintains their assets. Clients are urged to carefully review all custodial statements and compare them to the quarterly statements provided by August. August’s statements may vary slightly from custodial statements based on accounting procedures, reporting dates, or valuation methodologies of certain securities. August Group is deemed to have custody of the August Endurance Fund because August owns a majority of the general partner to the Fund. The Fund is audited annually by an independent accounting firm registered with and subject to regular inspection by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, (“PCAOB”) and the audited financial statements are provided to each investor of the Fund within 180 days following the Funds fiscal year-end. ITEM 16: INVESTMENT DISCRETION We generally provide our investment advisory services on a discretionary basis, which allows our firm to implement investment decisions, such as the recommendation of third-party portfolio managers and the purchase or sale of securities on behalf of your account, without requiring your prior authorization in order to meet your stated investment objectives. This 21 August Group Form ADV Part 2A August 2026 authority will be granted through your execution of our advisory agreement and, if applicable, the selected third-party portfolio managers custodian’s account opening documents. Clients are permitted to impose reasonable limitations on August. All such limitations, restrictions, and investment guidelines must be communicated to August in writing, such as in the client’s Investment Policy Statement (IPS). ITEM 17: VOTING CLIENT SECURITIES It is August’s policy and practice to only vote proxies when specifically instructed by a client. In such cases, August will vote solely in the best interest of that client and has established general guidelines for voting proxies. August may vote in a manner that is contrary to these general guidelines if the firm believes that doing so would be in a client’s best interest. If a proxy proposal presents a material conflict of interest between August and a client, then August will notify the relevant clients about the conflict of interest and obtain their approval prior to voting the proxy. Clients may obtain a complete copy of the proxy voting policies and procedures by contacting August in writing and requesting such information. Each client may also request, by contacting August in writing, information concerning the manner in which proxy votes have been cast with respect to portfolio securities held by the relevant client during the prior annual period. ITEM 18: FINANCIAL INFORMATION August does not require or solicit prepayment of more than $1,200 in fees per client, six months or more in advance and therefore is not required to provide, and has not provided, a balance sheet. Furthermore, August does not have any financial commitments that may impair its ability to meet contractual and/or fiduciary obligations to clients. Finally, the Firm has not been the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding. 22
