This material is provided for informational purposes only and is not intended as, and may not be relied on in any manner as legal, tax or investment advice, a recommendation, or as an offer to sell, a solicitation of an offer to purchase or a recommendation of any interest in any fund or security offered by Institutional Capital Network, Inc. or its affiliates (together “iCapital”). Alternative investments are complex, speculative investment vehicles and are not suitable for all investors. This material does not intend to address the financial objectives, situation or specific needs of any individual investor. The information contained herein is subject to change and is also incomplete. This industry information and its importance is an opinion only and should not be relied upon as the only important information available. Information contained herein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but not guaranteed, and iCapital assumes no liability for the information provided.
This material is confidential, is the property of iCapital and may not be shared without the written permission of iCapital. No part of this material may be reproduced in any form, or referred to in any other publication, without express written permission of iCapital.
Products offered by iCapital are typically private placements that are sold only to qualified clients of iCapital through transactions that are exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated there under (“Private Placements”). An investment in any product issued pursuant to a Private Placement, such as the fund described, entails a high degree of risk and no assurance can be given that any alternative investment fund’s investment objectives will be achieved or that investors will receive a return of their capital. Further, such investments are not subject to the same levels of regulatory scrutiny as publicly listed investments, and as a result, investors may have access to significantly less information than they can access with respect to publicly listed investments. Prospective investors should also note that investments in the products described involve long lock-ups and do not provide investors with liquidity.
Relationship Between iCapital and Underlying Fund GPs (defined as Underlying Fund GPs of products offered on the iCapital platform where iCapital is acting in an investment advisor capacity). iCapital is not a current client of, or investor in a private fund advised by, the Underlying Manager; however, iCapital sponsors and manages the Access Fund, which is or is expected to be an investor in the Underlying Fund, a private fund managed by the Underlying Manager. Prospective investors in the Access Fund should be aware that, as a result of the relationship between iCapital and Underlying Fund GPs and its affiliates created by the access fund arrangement discussed herein (1) iCapital is financially compensated for the arrangement by payment of certain management fees (which are calculated as described in “SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL TERMS OF THE ACCESS FUND – Management Fee” or corollary section of the Access Fund Offering Memorandum) and, if applicable, certain fees for placement of investors in the Access Fund or the Underlying Fund (which are typically calculated as a percentage of an investor’s aggregate commitment to the relevant fund), and (2) the existence of such compensation may create conflicts of interest whereby, for example, iCapital may be more inclined (a) to establish access funds (including the Access Fund) (i) for investment in underlying funds (including the Underlying Fund) sponsored or managed by the Underlying Fund GPs and its affiliates, than for investment in investment funds sponsored or managed by other fund managers, and (ii) upon terms and conditions more favorable to the Underlying Fund GPs and its affiliates than iCapital would otherwise agree to in the absence of such compensation; (b) to make positive statements about the Underlying Fund GPs and its affiliates in order to encourage investors to make a larger commitment to the Access Fund, thereby increasing the fees paid to iCapital, or (c) to vote or exercise consent rights in respect of interests in underlying funds (including the Underlying Fund) held by access funds (including the Access Fund) in a manner more favorable to the Underlying Fund GPs and its affiliates than iCapital would otherwise vote or exercise in the absence of such compensation.
Securities and services may be offered through iCapital Securities, LLC, Axio Financial LLC, and/or SIMON Markets LLC, each of which is a registered broker/dealer, member FINRA and SIPC, and subsidiary of Institutional Capital Network, Inc. (“iCapital”). iCapital Advisors, LLC, a subsidiary of iCapital, is an investment adviser registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These registrations and memberships in no way imply that the SEC, FINRA or SIPC have endorsed the entities, products or services discussed herein. iCapital and iCapital Network are registered trademarks of Institutional Capital Network, Inc.
