ARTICLE 3 - INVESTMENT DECISIONS AND TRADE EXECUTION 3.1 Information (c) In making investment decisions, the Manager shall exercise its discretion based upon the information from time to time available to it. Such information shall not include any information which the Manager or any of its employees are under a fiduciary, statutory or other legal duty not to use or disclose, and the Manager shall not take such information into account in exercising its discretion. All information relating to services performed by the Manager for the General Partner under this Agreement shall be kept confidential from third parties, except for: (i) employees and officers of the Manager and affiliated companies of the Manager and financial and legal counsel to the Manager and custodians, recordkeepers, valuation agents, sub custodians and prime brokers employed by the Manager and for the purpose of the furtherance of the business of the Partnership in respect of the Partnership s investments; (ii) any Person as the Manager determines in its discretion for the purpose of the furtherance of the business of the Partnership in respect of the Partnership s investments; and (iii) as required by Applicable Laws. The Manager shall be entitled to rely on any information received from the General Partner, custodian, prime broker or a sub-custodian or their respective 00042159-1 12

authorized representatives associated with the day-to-day operation of the Partnership and no liability shall be incurred by the Manager as a result of any error in such information or any failure to receive any notices required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement and Section 6.1. (d) The Manager agrees that any information supplied to the Partnership will be accurate and complete in all material respects and will contain no material misrepresentations provided that, respecting information derived by the Manager from a Person other than the Manager, the Manager s obligation hereunder shall be limited to using its best efforts to transmit the information accurately and completely and without misrepresentation. 3.2 Books and Records The Manager shall keep or shall cause to be kept records in respect of all portfolio transactions executed on behalf of the Partnership. To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, during regular business hours and upon five (5) Business Days notice, the Manager shall provide to the General Partner access to the Manager s records relating to the services performed under this Agreement for the General Partner. The Manager shall also provide the General Partner with all information and documents within the control of the Manager and which are necessary or relevant for the Partnership to fulfill its obligations. The Manager shall have access at all reasonable times to books and records maintained for the Partnership, to the extent necessary for the Manager to comply with all Applicable Laws to which it is subject; provided that the Partnership shall produce at its principal office copies of such records and books whenever reasonably required to do so by the Manager for the purpose of legal proceedings or dealings with any governmental or regulatory authorities. 3.3 Liquidity and Cash Reserves Based on such information and other factors provided to it by the General Partner, the Manager shall determine the portion of the assets of the Partnership which will be invested or held uninvested as cash, including but not limited to market conditions, to provide liquidity for redemption of Units of the Partnership, market views of the Manager and/or as may be necessary to manage the Partnership. 3.4 Portfolio Execution The Manager may open accounts for the Partnership with brokerage firms, banks or others and may invest assets of the Partnership in, and may conduct, maintain and operate these accounts for the purchase, sale and exchange of stocks, bonds, treasury bills (or other short term investments), warrants, currencies, forward and futures contracts, puts, calls, indices, derivatives and other securities, and in connection therewith, may borrow money or securities on behalf of the Partnership to complete trades, obtain guarantees, pledge securities and engage in all other activities necessary or incidental to conducting, maintaining and operating such accounts. 00042159-1 13

3.5 Brokerage Arrangements (c) (d) All decisions as to the purchase and sale of portfolio securities and all decisions as to the execution of these portfolio transactions, including the selection of market and dealer and the negotiation of commissions, where applicable, shall be made by the Manager. In effecting portfolio transactions, the Manager shall seek to obtain best execution of orders as required by Securities Legislation. To the extent that the terms offered by more than one dealer are considered by the Manager to be comparable, the Manager may, in its discretion, choose to purchase and sell portfolio securities from and to or through dealers who provide research, statistical and other services to the Manager in respect of its management of the Partnership. The Manager shall only enter into such arrangements in accordance with industry standards when it is of the view that such arrangements are for the benefit of its clients. Notwithstanding the forgoing, all parties acknowledge that not all brokerage arrangements will benefit all clients at all times. All parties acknowledge that the Manager may be provided with research from the dealers with whom it places trades for the Partnership, as well as for its other clients. In contemplation of the above, the Manager agrees and acknowledges that it shall not take into account the research it receives in determining dealers through whom it will place portfolio transactions for the Partnership, unless the terms of such a relationship with a dealer are comparable to other terms offered. Furthermore, the Manager shall maintain a list containing the names of all of the dealer(s) that provided such research services to the Manager during the last financial year of the Partnership. The Manager shall provide the Partnership access to the aforementioned list on request. The Manager is hereby authorized, to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by Applicable Laws regarding brokerage arrangements, to cause the Partnership to enter into brokerage arrangements and to effect transactions pursuant to such brokerage arrangements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager acknowledges and agrees that the use of brokerage arrangements does not relieve the Manager from an obligation to obtain best execution and best price for the transaction viewed in terms of either the particular transaction or the Manager s overall responsibilities to all of its clients. Furthermore, the Manager hereby agrees to use its best efforts to enter into written agreements with brokerage service providers and to provide disclosure with respect to these agreements to limited partners of the Partnership as the General Partner deems to be appropriate and as may be required by Applicable Laws. 3.6 Non-Exclusivity and Investing in Related Issuers The Manager may have other business interests and may engage in other activities similar or in addition to those relating to the activities to be performed for the Partnership, including, but not limited to, acting as portfolio manager to other investment funds. The Manager shall carry out its duties in accordance with such 00042159-1 14

conflict of interest policies and policies regarding fair allocation of investment opportunities among clients adopted by the Manager from time to time. The Partnership hereby authorizes the Manager, in carrying out its duties under Section 2.2 of this Agreement, to invest in securities of connected and/or related issuers or other investment funds managed or advised by the Manager subject to Applicable Laws. 3.7 Custodian, Prime Broker and Sub-Custodians The General Partner has selected and appointed the custodian, prime broker and/or subcustodians of the Partnership. The General Partner shall direct the custodian, sub-custodians and/or prime broker of the Partnership to accept instructions from the Manager for settlement purposes. The Manager shall not be liable to the Partnership for any failure on the part of the custodian, prime broker or sub-custodians to settle portfolio transactions.

ARTICLE 4 - FEES AND EXPENSES 4.1 Fees The Manager shall be entitled to receive management fees from the Partnership on the basis set forth in Schedule A hereto for services provided to the Partnership.
