Risks of Investing in a Fund
When investing in any fund we sponsor or manage (a “Fund”), you are strongly urged to carefully review the risk factors and conflicts of interest disclosures in the offering materials for such fund. The risks involved in an investment in any Fund, include, but are not limited to, the following:

• General/Loss of capital. An investment in a Fund involves a high degree of risk. There can be no assurance that a Fund’s return objectives will be realized and investors in a Fund could lose up to the full amount of their invested capital. A Fund’s fees and expenses may offset a Fund’s profits. Limited liquidity. An investment in a Fund provides limited liquidity since withdrawals may be prohibited or limited and interests may not be freely transferable or redeemable. There will be no secondary market for the interests in any Fund. Dependence on manager. HCM has total investment authority over a Fund. Decisions made by HCM may cause a Fund to incur losses or to miss profit opportunities on which it would otherwise have capitalized. Volatility. Investment techniques used in a Fund may include the use of leverage and derivative instruments such as futures, options and short sales, which amplify the possibilities for both profits and losses and may add volatility to a Fund’s performance. Potential conflicts of interest. The payment of performance-based compensation to HCM creates an incentive for HCM to cause a Fund to make riskier or more speculative investments than it would in the absence of such compensation. Valuation. The value at which a Fund’s investments can be liquidated may differ, sometimes significantly, from the interim valuations determined by such Fund. Non-U.S. securities. A Fund may invest in non-U.S. securities, which may include exposure to currency fluctuation, reduced access to reliable information, less stringent accounting standards, illiquidity of securities and markets, higher commissions and fees and local economic or political instability. Absence of regulatory oversight. A Fund will not register as an investment company under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940 or similar laws or regulations. Accordingly, the provisions of such laws and regulations will not be applicable.

Privacy Policy

Collection and Disclosure of Information
The Website is not configured in a manner that requires you to provide us with non-public personal information in order to obtain access to certain information or materials. Therefore, HCM does not, in the ordinary course, obtain nonpublic personal information about you via the Website.

However, when you enter and browse the Website, HCM may collect, through technology, information about you that is not personally identifiable. This may include, without limitation, the number and frequency of visits to the Website, the websites accessed before and after you visit the Website, the Internet browsers used by you and your IP addresses. HCM may use this type of non-personally identifiable information for reasonable business purposes, such as the use of your IP address to help diagnose problems with HCM’s server or to administer the Website. This information may also be analyzed so that HCM can serve you in the best manner possible on its Website.

Security of Information
In the event HCM collects any information about you, it will take reasonable precautions to protect your information from loss, misuse or alteration. You should recognize, however, that there is no such thing as “perfect security” on the Internet, and third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications.

Miscellaneous

Because certain jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in such jurisdictions liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. If you are dissatisfied with any portion of the Website, or with any of these terms of use, your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue using this Website.
