advice and/or tax preparation services, Registrant, if requested, may recommend the
services of a certified public accountant, all of which services shall be rendered
independent of the Registrant pursuant to a separate agreement between the client and the
certified public accountant. Registrant’s indirect owner, Mazars USA LLP (“Mazars”) is
a certified public accounting firm.
Specifically, to the extent that Mazars provides accounting and/or tax preparation services
to any clients, including clients of the Registrant, all such services shall be performed by
Mazars, in its professional capacity, independent of the Registrant, for which services
5
Registrant shall not receive any portion of the fees charged by Mazars, referral or
otherwise. Certain members of Registrant are also members of Mazars.
It is anticipated that the members of Mazars, solely incidental to their respective practices
as Certified Public Accountants with Mazars, shall recommend the Registrant’s services to
certain of Mazars’ clients. Neither Mazars, nor any of its members, shall receive referral
fees from the Registrant. However, those individual members of the Registrant who are
also members of Mazars shall be entitled to receive distributions relative to their respective
ownership interests in Registrant. Mazars is not involved in providing investment advice
on behalf of the Registrant, nor does Mazars hold itself out as providing advisory services
on behalf of the Registrant. No client is under any obligation to engage the services of
Mazars, or any other person or entity recommended by Registrant or its representatives.
D. The Registrant does not provide investment supervisory, investment management,
investment reporting or investment implementation services. The Registrant may
recommend the services of other investment advisers. The Registrant shall neither
supervise nor review the assets once referred to the investment adviser. Registrant acts
solely in the capacity as promoter and shall present a separate promoter disclosure
statement describing the nature of the relationship between Registrant, the firm for which
Registrant acts as promoter and the compensation arrangement. The terms and conditions
under which the referred client shall engage the other investment adviser shall be set forth
in a separate written agreement between the referred client and the referred investment
adviser.
If Registrant refers a client to another investment adviser, including but not limited to the
Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, and the client engages the other investment
adviser, Registrant shall be compensated for its services by receipt of a referral fee to be
paid by the other investment adviser in accordance with state regulatory requirements or
securities laws. Any such referral fee shall be paid solely from the other investment
advisers and shall not result in any additional charge to the client. Registrant verifies that
other investment advisers are appropriately licensed and registered prior to directing
referrals to them.
Item 11
Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and
Personal Trading
A. The Registrant maintains an investment policy relative to personal securities transactions.
This investment policy is part of Registrant’s overall Code of Ethics, which serves to
establish a standard of business conduct for all of Registrant’s Representatives that is based
upon fundamental principles of openness, integrity, honesty and trust, a copy of which is
available upon request.
In accordance with Section 204A of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, the Registrant
also maintains and enforces written policies reasonably designed to prevent the misuse of
material non-public information by the Registrant or any person associated with the
Registrant.
B. Neither the Registrant nor any related person of Registrant recommends, buys, or sells for
client accounts, securities in which the Registrant or any related person of Registrant has a
material financial interest.
6
C. The Registrant and/or representatives of the Registrant may buy or sell securities that are
also recommended to clients. This practice may create a situation where the Registrant
and/or representatives of the Registrant are in a position to materially benefit from the sale
or purchase of those securities. Therefore, this situation creates a conflict of interest.
Practices such as “scalping” (i.e., a practice whereby the owner of shares of a security
recommends that security for investment and then immediately sells it at a profit upon the
rise in the market price which follows the recommendation) could take place if the
Registrant did not have adequate policies in place to detect such activities. In addition, this
requirement can help detect insider trading, “front-running” (i.e., personal trades executed
prior to those of the Registrant’s clients) and other potentially abusive practices.
The Registrant has a personal securities transaction policy in place to monitor the personal
securities transactions and securities holdings of each of the Registrant’s “Access Persons”.
The Registrant’s securities transaction policy requires that an Access Person of the
Registrant must provide the Chief Compliance Officer or his/her designee with a written
report of their current securities holdings within ten (10) days after becoming an Access
Person. Additionally, each Access Person must provide or make available to the Chief
Compliance Officer or his/her designee a list of reportable transactions each calendar
quarter as well as a written annual report of the Access Person’s securities holdings;
provided, however that at any time that the Registrant has only one Access Person, he or
she shall not be required to submit any securities report described above.
D. The Registrant and/or representatives of the Registrant may buy or sell securities, at or
around the same time as those securities are recommended to clients. This practice creates
a situation where the Registrant and/or representatives of the Registrant are in a position to
materially benefit from the sale or purchase of those securities. Therefore, this situation
creates a conflict of interest. As indicated above in Item 11 C, the Registrant has a personal
securities transaction policy in place to monitor the personal securities transaction and
securities holdings of each of Registrant’s Access Persons.
