B. Description of Advisory Services
This Brochure generally includes information about us and our relationships with our clients.
While much of this Brochure applies to all such clients, certain information included herein applies
to specific clients only.
We serve as the investment adviser with discretionary trading authority to private fund clients, the
securities of which are offered to investors on a private placement basis.
We currently advise the following private fund clients:
• Arvin Capital Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Domestic Fund”);
• Arvin Capital Partners Offshore Fund LP, a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership
(the “Offshore Fund”); and
• Arvin Master Fund LP, a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (the “Master
Fund”), which serves as the master fund into which the Domestic Fund and the Offshore
Fund invest all of their investable assets through a “master feeder” structure.
The Domestic Fund, the Offshore Fund, and the Master Fund are collectively referred to as the
“Arvin Capital Fund.” The Fund General Partner serves as the general partner of the Arvin Capital
Fund.
Arvin Capital also provides investment advisory services on a discretionary basis to separate
accounts of private funds, each established and operated by third-party investment managers (each
a “Separate Account” and collectively the “Separate Accounts”). The Separate Accounts pursue a
substantially similar strategy to the Arvin Capital Fund.
Arvin Capital may, in the future, advise other clients and private investment funds, including
separately managed accounts, special purpose vehicles, co-investment funds,
and similar
investment vehicles.
As used herein, the term “Client” generally refers to each Arvin Capital Fund, the Separate
Accounts and to any other client that Arvin Capital may advise in the future.
In providing advisory services to its Clients, Arvin Capital pursues a long/short equity strategy
focused on global equities. Arvin Capital intends to also invest opportunistically in fundamental
credit securities. As part of its investment program, the Arvin Capital Fund may, from time to time,
make investments in securities for which there is no ready market (generally, illiquid or restricted
investments in public and private equity, private debt, illiquid public debt and equity investments)
and which Arvin Capital, in its sole discretion, determines should be treated as “Special
Investments.” Please see “Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies, and Risk of Loss”
for a description of the Arvin Capital’s investment strategies and certain related risks.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to any limitations in the governing documents of the Arvin
Capital Fund, Arvin Capital is not limited with respect to the types of investment strategies it may
employ or the markets or instruments in which it may invest.
The securities of the Arvin Capital Fund are offered and sold on a private placement basis under
exemptions promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and other exemptions of
similar import under U.S. state laws and the laws of other jurisdictions where any offering may be
made. Investors in the Arvin Capital Fund must meet the qualifications set forth in the applicable
offering documents. Persons reviewing this Brochure should not construe this as, and should
understand that this Brochure is not, an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the securities
of any of the Arvin Capital Fund described herein. Any such offer or solicitation will be made only
by means of a confidential private placement memorandum.
C. Tailored Advisory Services for Client Accounts
Arvin Capital manages assets in accordance with the stated investment objectives of each Client,
as described in any relevant investment management agreement or similar agreement (an “IMA”)
or in an offering memorandum or a Client’s organizational documents (together with the IMA and
the offering memorandum, the “Offering Documents”). Investment advice is provided directly to
Clients and not individually to the limited partners, shareholders, and investors in Clients (the
“Investors”).
D. Wrap Fee Programs
Arvin Capital does not currently participate in wrap fee programs.
