In providing services to the Funds, BlueMar (1) manages the Funds’ assets in accordance with the

Memorandum and individual limited partnership or shareholder agreements (the “Offering
Documents”); (2) formulates investment objectives; (3) directs and manages the investment and
reinvestment of the Funds’ assets; and (4) provides periodic reports to Investors. BlueMar provides

shareholders (“Investors”). Investment restrictions for the Funds, if any, are generally established in

BlueMar also provides discretionary investment advice to an Undertaking for Collective Investment
in Transferable Securities (the “UCITS”). The terms of services provided to the UCITS are specified
in their respective Investment Management Agreements (“IMAs”) with BlueMar.
The investment objective of the Funds and the UCITS (collectively, the “Clients”), is to generate
attractive, risk-adjusted returns over time, primarily through long and short investments in liquid equity
securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers. BlueMar’s primary focus is on investments in the global
services industry, FinTech and special situations. The investment decisions for the Clients are generally
made through a value-oriented, deep, bottom-up research process. The Clients have a secondary focus
on thematic opportunities when structural and/or cyclical developments are identified and may also
seek to take advantage of tactical opportunities when available, as further described in Item 8. A more
fulsome description of each Clients’ investment objective and strategy is available in the respective
Fund’s Offering Document or IMA.
