Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Investors of

A&Q Alternative Fixed-Income Strategies Fund LLC

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of A&Q Alternative Fixed-Income Strategies Fund LLC (the “Fund”), including the schedule of portfolio investments, as of March 31, 2016, and the related statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for the year ended March 31, 2016, the period from January 1, 2015 to March 31, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of investments in investment funds as of March 31, 2016, by correspondence with management of the underlying investment funds or by other appropriate auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of A&Q Alternative Fixed-Income Strategies Fund LLC at March 31, 2016, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for the year ended March 31, 2016, the period from January 1, 2015 to March 31, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

A&Q Alternative Fixed-Income Strategies Fund LLC

Notes to Financial Statements

March 31, 2016

1. Organization

A&Q Alternative Fixed-Income Strategies Fund LLC (the “Fund”) was organized as a limited liability company under the laws of Delaware on April 30, 2002 and commenced operations on August 1, 2002. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a closed-end, non-diversified, management investment company. The Fund is commonly referred to as a “fund of funds.” Its investment objective is to maximize total return over the long term. The Fund will seek to achieve its objective principally through the allocation of assets among a select group of alternative asset managers (the “Investment Managers”) and the funds they operate. Investment Managers generally conduct their investment programs through unregistered investment vehicles, such as hedge funds, that have investors, other than the Fund, and in other registered investment companies (collectively, the “Investment Funds”). The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in Investment Funds that employ primarily fixed-income strategies.

Effective January 1, 2015, the Fund changed its tax classification from a partnership to a regulated investment company within the meaning of Section 851 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “RIC Conversion”). In connection with the RIC Conversion, the members of the Fund collectively were issued 116,798.660 units of limited liability company interests of the Fund (the “Units”) at a net asset value (“NAV”) per Unit of $1,000, in exchange for their collective interests in the Fund as of December 31, 2014, totaling $116,798,660 in net assets. In addition, the Fund changed its fiscal year-end from December 31 to March 31 and its tax year-end from December 31 to September 30. The Fund intends to qualify, and will elect to be treated, as a regulated investment company (a “RIC”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

Subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act, the business and affairs of the Fund shall be managed under the direction of the Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”, with an individual member referred to as a “Director”). The Board shall have the right, power and authority, on behalf of the Fund and in its name, to do all things necessary and proper to carry out its duties under the Fund’s Limited Liability Company Agreement, as amended and restated from time to time. Each Director shall be vested with the same powers, authority and responsibilities on behalf of the Fund as are customarily vested in each director of a Delaware corporation, and each Director who is not an “interested person” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund shall be vested with the same powers, authority and responsibilities on behalf of the Fund as are customarily vested in each director of a closed-end management investment company registered under the 1940 Act that is organized as a Delaware corporation who is not an “interested person” of such company. No Director shall have the authority individually to act on behalf of or to bind the Fund except within the scope of such Director’s authority as delegated by the Board. The Board may delegate the management of the Fund’s day-to-day operations to one or more officers or other persons (including, without limitation, UBS Hedge Fund Solutions (as defined below)), subject to the investment objective and policies of the Fund and to the oversight of the Board.

A&Q Alternative Fixed-Income Strategies Fund LLC

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

1. Organization (continued)

The Board has engaged UBS Hedge Fund Solutions LLC (formerly UBS Alternative and Quantitative Investments LLC) (“UBS Hedge Fund Solutions”, the “Adviser” and, when providing services under the Administration Agreement, the “Administrator”), a Delaware limited liability company, to provide investment advice regarding the selection of Investment Funds and to be responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. The Adviser is a wholly owned subsidiary of UBS AG and is registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended.

Units may be purchased as of the first business day of each month at the Fund’s then current NAV per Unit. The Fund from time to time may offer to repurchase Units pursuant to written tenders by investors. These repurchases will be made at such times and on such terms as may be determined by the Board in its complete and exclusive discretion. The Adviser expects that it will recommend to the Board that the Fund offer to repurchase Units from investors as of the end of each calendar quarter. During the year ended March 31, 2016, 27,602.775 Units were repurchased.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

a. New Accounting Pronouncement

During August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released Accounting Standards Update 2014-15 Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) (“ASU 2014-15”). ASU 2014-15 requires the Adviser to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued or within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued, when applicable. ASU 2014-15 becomes effective for fiscal periods ending after December 15, 2016; however, early adoption is permitted. The Adviser has elected not to early adopt ASU 2014-15 and is currently considering its effects upon the financial statements.

b. Portfolio Valuation

The Fund values its investments at fair value, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), which is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The Fund uses NAV as its measure of fair value of an investment in an investee when (i) the Fund’s investment does not have a readily determinable fair value and (ii) the NAV of the Investment Fund is calculated in a manner consistent with the measurement principles of investment company accounting, including measurement of the underlying investments at fair value. In evaluating the

10

A&Q Alternative Fixed-Income Strategies Fund LLC

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

March 31, 2016

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

b. Portfolio Valuation (continued)

level at which the fair value measurement of the Fund’s investments have been classified, the Fund has assessed factors including, but not limited to, price transparency, the ability to redeem at NAV at the measurement date and the existence or absence of certain restrictions at the measurement date.

In May 2015, the FASB issued an update on Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), ASU 2015-07, Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent) (“ASU 2015-07”). Per ASU 2015-07, an investment within the scope of ASC 820, for which fair value is measured using NAV as a practical expedient, should not be categorized within the fair value hierarchy. The update is required for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2015, however, earlier adoption is permitted. The Adviser has elected to early adopt ASU 2015-07. Additional disclosures required by ASU 2015-07, including liquidity terms and conditions of the underlying investments, are included in the Schedule of Portfolio Investments. The total fair value of the investments in Investment Funds valued using NAV as a practical expedient is $75,666,557.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1—	quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2—	inputs to the valuation methodology include quotes for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument
Level 3—	inputs to the valuation methodology include significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The Fund recognizes transfers into and out of the levels indicated above at the end of the reporting period. There have been no transfers between levels during the reporting period.

GAAP provides guidance in determining whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability when compared with normal market activity for such asset or liability (or similar assets or liabilities). GAAP also provides guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction with regards to such an asset or liability is not orderly. In its consideration, the Fund must consider inputs and valuation techniques used for each class of assets and liabilities. Judgment is used to determine the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities for which disclosures about fair value measurements are provided. Fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities requires greater disaggregation than the Fund’s line items in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

b. Portfolio Valuation (continued)

The following is a summary of the investment strategies and any restrictions on the liquidity provisions of the investments in Investment Funds held in the Fund as of March 31, 2016. Investment Funds with no current redemption restrictions may be subject to future gates, lock-up provisions or other restrictions, in accordance with their offering documents. The Fund had no unfunded capital commitments as of March 31, 2016. The Fund used the following categories to classify its Investment Funds:

The Investment Funds in the credit/income strategy (total fair value of $38,171,746) utilize credit analysis to evaluate potential investments and use debt or debt-linked instruments to execute their investment theses. Their approach can be either fundamental, quantitative, or a combination of both. As of March 31, 2016, the Investment Funds in the credit/income strategy had $22,230,004, representing 58% of the value of the investments in this category, subject to investor level gates and/or lock-ups. Investments representing approximately 25% of the value of the investments in this category cannot be redeemed because the investments include restrictions that do not allow for redemption in the first 12 months after acquisition without paying a fee. The remaining restriction period for these investments ranges from 3-9 months at March 31, 2016.

The other category (total fair value of $8,793,488) contains investment approaches that are outside of the mainstream hedge fund strategies (credit/income, equity hedged, relative value and trading). The category includes other strategies, such as certain private equity and real estate dealings, as well as niche investment approaches including asset-backed lending, insurance-linked securities, direct private lending, factoring, infrastructure investing, viatical/structured settlements, natural resources and weather derivatives. As of March 31, 2016, no Investment Funds in the other strategy were subject to investor level gates or lock-ups. All investments in this category are held in side pockets or are in liquidation; therefore redemption notice periods are no longer effective and the liquidation of assets is uncertain.

The Investment Funds in the relative value strategy (total fair value of $16,289,155), a broad category, generally encompass strategies that are non-fundamental and non-directional, and often quantitatively driven. The Investment Funds in this strategy typically use arbitrage to exploit mispricing and other opportunities in various asset classes, geographies, and time horizons. The Investment Funds frequently focus on capturing the spread between two assets, while maintaining neutrality to other factors, such as geography, changes in interest rates, equity market movement, and currencies, to name a few examples. As of March 31, 2016, the Investment Funds in the relative value strategy had $12,156,297, representing 75% of the value of the investments in this category, subject to investor level gates and/or lock-ups. An investment representing approximately 19% of

the value of the investments in this category cannot be redeemed because the investment includes a restriction that does not allow for redemptions in the first 12 months after acquisition without paying a fee. The remaining restriction period for this investment is 8 months at March 31, 2016.

The Investment Funds in the trading strategy (total fair value of $12,412,168) are generally top-down in nature and often driven by econometric and macroeconomic research. These Investment Funds may utilize financial instruments, such as foreign exchange, equities, rates, sovereign debt, currencies, and commodities to express a manager’s view. In executing different approaches, managers may use either fundamental or quantitative models or a combination of both. As of March 31, 2016, the Investment Funds in the trading strategy had $3,964,549, representing 32% of the value of the investments in this category, subject to an investor level gate.

A detailed depiction of each investment in the portfolio by investment strategy, including any additional liquidity terms and other restrictions, can be found in the Schedule of Portfolio Investments.

The NAV of the Fund is determined by the Fund’s administrator, under the oversight of the Adviser, as of the close of business at the end of any fiscal period in accordance with the valuation principles set forth below or as may be determined from time to time pursuant to policies established by the Board. The Fund’s investments in Investment Funds are subject to the terms and conditions of the respective operating agreements and offering memorandums, as appropriate. The Adviser has adopted procedures pursuant to ASC 820 in which the Fund values its investments in Investment Funds at fair value. Fair value is generally determined utilizing NAVs supplied by, or on behalf of, the Investment Funds’ Investment Managers, which are net of management and incentive fees charged by the Investment Funds. NAVs received by, or on behalf of, the Investment Funds’ Investment Managers are based on the fair value of the Investment Funds’ underlying investments in accordance with the policies established by the Investment Funds. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, the value of the Fund’s investments in the Investment Funds may differ significantly from the value that would have been used had a ready market been available. See Schedule of Portfolio Investments for further information.

The Fund considers foreign currency forward contracts to be Level 2 investments.

The fair value relating to certain underlying investments of these Investment Funds, for which there is no ready market, has been estimated by the respective Investment Funds’ management and is based upon available information in the absence of readily ascertainable fair values and does not

necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed. These differences could be material.

It is unknown, on an aggregate basis, whether the Investment Funds held any investments whereby the Fund’s proportionate share exceeded 5% of the Fund’s net assets at March 31, 2016.

The fair value of the Fund’s assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments approximates the carrying amounts presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

c. Investment Transactions and Income Recognition

The Fund accounts for realized gains and losses from Investment Fund transactions based on the pro-rata ratio of the fair value and cost of the underlying investment at the date of redemption. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.

In 2008, the Fund’s former investment adviser, UBS Fund Advisor LLC, inaccurately allocated the costs of the insurance premiums (the “premiums”) to the Fund. In analyzing the premiums for 2015, the Adviser concluded that the costs should have been allocated to both the Fund and the Adviser in proportions agreed to by both parties. The Board and the Adviser agreed that the Fund should be repaid for the Adviser’s share of the premiums during the period from 2008-2014, with interest. Included in other income on the Statement of Operations is $190,087 from the repayment of this portion of the premiums and interest by the Adviser. See Note 3 for additional related party transactions.

d. Fund Expenses

The Fund bears all expenses incurred in its business, including, but not limited to, the following: all costs and expenses related to portfolio transactions and positions for the Fund’s account; legal fees; accounting and auditing fees; custodial fees; costs of computing the Fund’s NAV; costs of insurance; registration expenses; interest expense; offering and organization costs; due diligence, including travel and related expenses; expenses of meetings of Directors; all costs with respect to communications to investors; and other types of expenses approved by the Directors. Expenses are recorded on the accrual basis.

e. Income Taxes

For periods prior to January 1, 2015, the Fund, as a limited liability company, was classified as a partnership for federal tax purposes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes was required.

Effective January 1, 2015, the Fund elected to be treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes, and it further intends to elect to be treated, and expects each year to qualify, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. For each taxable year that the Fund so qualifies, the Fund will not be subject to federal income tax on that part of its taxable income that it distributes to its investors. Taxable income consists generally of net investment income and net capital gains. The Fund also intends to distribute sufficient net investment income and net capital gains, if any, so that it will not be subject to excise tax on undistributed income and gains, resulting in no provision requirements for federal income or excise taxes. The Fund has a September 30 tax year-end. Unless otherwise indicated, all applicable tax disclosures reflect tax adjusted balances at September 30, 2015.

The Fund will file U.S. federal income and applicable state tax returns. The Adviser will analyze the Fund’s tax positions and will determine if a tax provision for federal or state income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements. The Fund’s federal and state income tax returns for all open tax years are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue. The Fund will recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. For the year ended March 31, 2016, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties. The Adviser does not believe there are positions for which it is reasonably likely that the total amounts of unrecognized tax liability will significantly change within twelve months of the reporting date.

Permanent book-to-tax basis differences resulted in the reclassification of amounts stated below, between accumulated net investment loss, accumulated net realized loss from investments and paid-in capital reported on the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of March 31, 2016. Such permanent reclassifications are attributable to differences between book and tax reporting of the Fund’s investments which do not affect net assets or NAV per Share values.

Accumulated Net Investment Loss	Accumulated Net Realized Loss	Paid in Capital
$700,667	$(7,841,611)	$7,140,944

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the financial statement year ended March 31, 2016 was $1,269,866 of ordinary income and $3,847,099 of long-term capital gains. The Fund did not pay a distribution to shareholders during the financial statement period ended March 31, 2015.

e. Income Taxes (continued)

The tax basis of distributable earnings as of September 30, 2015 (the Fund’s most recent tax year) shown below represents future distribution requirements that the Fund must satisfy under the income tax regulations.

		Qualified Late	Net Unrealized
Undistributed	Undistributed Capital	Year Loss	Appreciation/
Ordinary Income	Gains	Deferrals*	(Depreciation)
$ —	$3,449,829	$(1,608,488)	$(8,787,803)

* Under federal tax law, qualified late year ordinary and capital losses realized after December 31 and October 31, respectively, may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following tax year. For the tax year ended September 30, 2015, the Fund incurred a late year ordinary loss of $1,608,488 which it will elect to defer to the tax year ended September 30, 2016.

The federal tax cost of investments is adjusted for taxable income allocated to the Fund from the Investment Funds. The aggregate tax cost of investments at March 31, 2016 is $86,699,828. Investment net tax basis unrealized depreciation was $11,033,271, consisting of $4,761,832 unrealized appreciation and $15,795,103 unrealized depreciation.

The primary reason for differences between the earnings reported above and the federal tax cost of investments, in comparison with the related amounts reported on the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of March 31, 2016, relates to cumulative differences between tax and GAAP financial statement reporting requirements on the portfolio investments.

f. Cash

Cash consists of monies held at The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Custodian”). Such cash, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Fund has not experienced any losses in such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on such accounts.

g. Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Because of the uncertainty of valuation, such estimates may differ significantly from values that would have been used had a ready market existed, and the differences could be material.

3. Related Party Transactions

The Adviser provides investment advisory services to the Fund pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement. Pursuant to that agreement, the Fund pays the Adviser a monthly fee (the “Investment Management Fee”) at the annual rate of 1.45% of the Fund’s net assets.

The Administrator provides certain administrative services to the Fund, including, among other things, providing office space and other support services. In consideration for such services, the Fund pays the Administrator a monthly fee (the “Management Fee”) at an annual rate of 0.30% of the Fund’s adjusted net assets determined as of the last day of each month. Adjusted net assets as of any month-end date means the total value of all assets of the Fund, less an amount equal to all accrued debts, liabilities and obligations of the Fund as of such date, and calculated before giving effect to any repurchase of Units on such date.

The Management Fee and Investment Management Fee are computed as of the start of business on the last business day of the period to which each Management Fee and Investment Management Fee relates, after adjustment for any Unit purchases effective on such date, and will be payable in arrears. A portion of the Investment Management Fee and the Management Fee is paid by UBS Hedge Fund Solutions to its affiliates.

UBS Financial Services Inc. (“UBS FSI”), a wholly owned subsidiary of UBS Americas, Inc., acts as a placement agent for the Fund, without special compensation from the Fund, and bears its own costs associated with its activities as placement agent. Placement fees, if any, charged on contributions are debited against the contribution amounts, to arrive at a net subscription amount. The placement fee does not constitute assets of the Fund.

Effective January 1, 2016, each Director of the Fund receives an annual retainer of $12,500 plus a fee for each meeting attended. The Chairman of the Board and the Chairman of the Audit Committee of the Board each receive an additional annual retainer in the amount of $20,000. These additional annual retainer amounts are paid for by the Fund on a pro-rata basis along with the seven other registered alternative investment funds advised by UBS Hedge Fund Solutions. All Directors are reimbursed by the Fund for all reasonable out of pocket expenses.

During the year ended March 31, 2016, the Fund paid a portion of the annual compensation of the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer in the amount of $17,242, which is included in Officers’ and Directors’ fees on the Statement of Operations.

The Fund, along with other funds advised by UBS Hedge Fund Solutions, the Directors and the Adviser, is insured under an insurance policy which protects against claims alleging a wrongful act, error, omission, misstatement, misleading statement, and other items made in error. The annual premiums are allocated to the Adviser and to several UBS funds on a pro-rata basis by members’

capital. On an annual basis, the Adviser determines the allocation to each fund, and the allocation is then approved by the Board. During the year ended March 31, 2016, the Fund paid $40,509 in insurance fees.

The Fund, along with several other funds advised by UBS Hedge Fund Solutions, is party to a Credit Agreement (see Note 6). On a quarterly basis, the credit provider will charge a fee (the “Commitment Fee”) on the unused portion of the total amount of the Credit Agreement. The Adviser will negotiate the commitment amount with the counter party based on the amount each fund will be expected to borrow at a given time. The Commitment Fee will be allocated to each fund based on the expected borrowing amount which is disclosed within the Credit Agreement. For the year ended March 31, 2016, the Fund incurred a Commitment Fee of $69,967 to the counter party, of which $18,200 was payable at March 31, 2016.

Other investment partnerships sponsored by UBS AG or its affiliates may also maintain investment interests in the Investment Funds owned by the Fund.

4. Administration and Custody Fees

BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc. (“BNY Mellon”), as Fund administrator, performs certain additional administrative, accounting, record keeping, tax and investor services for the Fund. BNY Mellon receives a monthly fee primarily based upon (i) the average net assets of the Fund subject to a minimum monthly fee, and (ii) the aggregate net assets of the Fund and certain other investment funds sponsored or advised by UBS AG, UBS Americas, Inc. or their affiliates. Additionally, the Fund reimburses certain out of pocket expenses incurred by BNY Mellon.

The Custodian has entered into a service agreement whereby it provides custodial services for the Fund.

5. Unit Capital and NAV

The Fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Units. The Fund has registered $821,751,879 of Units for sale under its Registration Statement (File No. 333-194092). The Units are being distributed by UBS Financial Services Inc. (together with any other broker or dealer appointed by the Fund as distributor of its Units, the “Distributor”). The Distributor may pay from its own resources compensation to its financial advisers and brokers or dealers in connection with the sale and distribution of the Units or servicing of investors.

5. Unit Capital and NAV (continued)

Capital unit transactions for outstanding Units in the Fund for the year ended March 31, 2016 are summarized as follows:

Outstanding Units April 1, 2015	Subscriptions	Reinvestments	Redemptions	Outstanding Units March 31, 2016	NAV Per Unit

6. Loan Payable

The Fund, along with several other funds advised by UBS Hedge Fund Solutions, is party to a secured Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of September 1, 2015, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, which will terminate on August 30, 2016 unless extended (the “Credit Agreement”). Under the Credit Agreement, the Fund may borrow from time to time on a revolving basis at any time up to $16,000,000 for temporary investment purposes and to meet requests for tenders. Indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Agreement accrues interest at a rate per annum for each day equal to 1.5% plus the higher of the Overnight LIBOR Rate and the Federal Funds Rate for such day (the “Interest Rate”), or at 2% over the Interest Rate during an event of default. There is a Commitment Fee payable by the Fund, calculated at 45 basis points per annum of the line of credit not utilized.

For the year ended March 31, 2016, the Fund’s average interest rate paid on borrowings was 1.63% per annum and the average borrowings outstanding was $186,667. The Fund did not have any borrowings outstanding at March 31, 2016. Interest expense for the year ended March 31, 2016 was $3,051, of which none was payable at March 31, 2016.

7. Investments

As of March 31, 2016, the Fund had investments in Investment Funds, none of which were related parties.

Aggregate purchases and proceeds from sales of investments for the year ended March 31, 2016 amounted to $21,722,190 and $52,416,189, respectively.

The agreements related to investments in Investment Funds provide for compensation to the general partners/managers in the form of management fees of 0.90% to 2.00% (per annum) of net assets and incentive fees or allocations ranging from 0.00% to 20.00% of net profits earned which excludes Highland Credit Strategies Fund, Ltd. that no longer charges management or incentive fees. One or more Investment Funds have entered into a side pocket arrangement. Detailed information about the Investment Funds’ portfolios is not available. Please see the Schedule of Portfolio Investments for further information.

8. Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

In the normal course of business, the Investment Funds in which the Fund invests trade various financial instruments and enter into various investment activities with off-balance sheet risk. These include, but are not limited to, short selling activities, writing option contracts, contracts for differences, equity swaps, distressed investing, merger arbitrage and convertible arbitrage. The Fund’s risk of loss in these Investment Funds is limited to the fair value of these investments.

The Fund may enter into a forward foreign currency exchange contract for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date as a hedge against either specific transactions or portfolio positions. The Fund may also purchase and sell forward contracts to seek to increase total return. All commitments are “marked-to-market” daily at the applicable translation rates and any resulting unrealized gains or losses are recorded in the Fund’s financial statements. The Fund records realized gains or losses at the time a forward contract is offset by entry into a closing transaction or extinguished by delivery of the currency. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.

The Fund entered into a forward foreign currency exchange contract to hedge against a Euro denominated Investment Fund. The Fund enters into these contracts from time to time to mitigate the foreign currency risks associated with these types of investments.

The Fund is required to present enhanced information in order to provide users of financial statements with an improved degree of transparency and understanding of how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments are accounted for, and how derivative instruments affect an entity’s financial position, results of operations and its cash flows. In order to provide such information to financial statement users, the Fund provides qualitative disclosures about an entity’s associated risk exposures, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of derivative instruments and the gains and losses from derivative instruments.

The net realized loss and net change in unrealized depreciation on forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the year ended March 31, 2016 are $(12,580) and $(5,977), respectively, and are included in the net realized gain/(loss) from investments in Investment Funds and foreign currency contracts and transactions and net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments in Investment Funds and foreign currency contracts and translations, respectively, on the Statement of Operations.

9. Indemnification

In the ordinary course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts or agreements that contain indemnifications or warranties. Future events could occur that lead to the execution of these provisions against the Fund. Based on its history and experience, the Fund believes that the likelihood of such an event is remote.

10. Subsequent Events

The Adviser has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Fund through the date the financial statements were available to be issued, and has determined that there were no events that required disclosure other than the following:

Subsequent to March 31, 2016, the Fund paid investors’ redemptions payable of $6,231,594 in full on April 28, 2016.

UBS Hedge Fund Solutions LLC proxy voting policy 4-P-004010 Internal

Policy

1. General Policy

The general policy is to vote proxy proposals, amendments, consents or resolutions relating to client securities, including interests in private investment funds, if any, (collectively, “proxies”), in a manner that serves the best interests of the clients managed by the Registrant, as determined by the Registrant in its discretion, taking into account relevant factors, including, but not limited to:

- the impact on the value of the securities;

- the anticipated costs and benefits associated with the proposal;

- the effect on liquidity;

- impact on redemption or withdrawal rights;

- the continued or increased availability of portfolio information; and

- customary industry and business practices.

2. General Procedures

Unless clients have reserved voting rights to themselves, UBS Hedge Fund Solutions LLC (“HFS”) will direct the voting of proxies on securities held in their accounts. However, since the holdings in client accounts of HFS are almost exclusively comprised of hedge funds, many of which have non-voting shares, HFS rarely votes proxies. When voting such proxies, HFS Operations Department will consult with the HFS Investment Committee as well as the Legal and Compliance Department regarding the issues of the proxy vote. The Legal and Compliance Department will notify the Operations Department if there are any legal/compliance issues related to the vote. If there are no such issues, the Investment Committee will instruct the Operations Department on how to vote the proxy. The Operations Department will notify the relevant external parties of those instructions and vote in proxy in accordance to the instructions.

In the rare instance that HFS would have an equity security in one of its portfolios that holds a vote, HFS Operations Department will consult with its affiliate, UBS O’Connor LLC (“O’Connor”) on how to vote such proxy. In this instance, HFS would follow O’Connor’s Proxy Voting Policy and vote its proxy in accordance to the guidance provided by O’Connor’s Proxy Voting Policy (a copy of which is attached).

HFS has implemented procedures designed to identify whether HFS has a conflict of interest in voting a particular proxy proposal, which may arise as a result of its or its affiliates’ client relationships, marketing efforts or banking, investment banking and broker-dealer activities. To address such conflicts, HFS has imposed information barriers between it and its affiliates who conduct banking, investment banking and broker-dealer activities. Whenever HFS is aware of a conflict with respect to a particular proxy as determined by the Legal and Compliance Department, such proxy will be reviewed by a group consisting of members from the Operations Department, Investment Committee and Legal and Compliance and the group is required to review and agree to the manner in which such proxy is voted.

2.1 Recordkeeping

A record of all votes cast must be maintained in order to permit the SEC registered funds to file timely and accurately Form N-PX and to comply with the recordkeeping requirements of IA Act rule 204-2(e)(1). Additionally the Adviser shall maintain a written record of the method used to resolve a material conflict of interest.

Item 8. Portfolio Managers of Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

A&Q ALTERNATIVE FIXED-INCOME STRATEGIES FUND LLC

PORTFOLIO MANAGER DISCLOSURE

The Fund is managed by a portfolio management team that is jointly and primarily responsible for the selection of the Fund’s investments, the allocation of the Fund’s assets among underlying investment managers and the general day-to-day management of the Fund. The members of the portfolio management team are Bruce Amlicke, Americo Nardis, Russell Sinder and Joseph M. Sciortino (each, a “Portfolio Manager” and collectively, the “Portfolio Managers”).

Messrs. Amlicke and Nardis have served as Portfolio Managers of the Fund since 2013. Mr. Amlicke is a Managing Director and the Co-Chief Investment Officer of UBS Hedge Fund Solutions LLC (the “Adviser” or “UBS HFS”). He also is the Co-Chairman of UBS HFS’ Investment Committee. Prior to re-joining UBS in 2010, Mr. Amlicke served as Chief Investment Officer of Blackstone Alternative Asset Management and Senior Managing Director of The Blackstone Group LP. From 2003 to 2004, he was Chief Investment Officer of the O’Connor Multi-Manager Program, the predecessor of UBS HFS. Mr. Nardis is a Managing Director and the Deputy Chief Investment Officer of UBS HFS. He also is the Co-Chairman of UBS HFS’ Investment Committee. Mr. Nardis joined UBS in 2001, as a Senior Investment Officer for the O’Connor Multi-Manager Program. From 1998 to 2001, Mr. Nardis worked in the Manager Research Department at Tremont Advisers, Inc. as a Primary Specialist in Long/Short Equity. Mr. Sinder has been a Portfolio Manager of the Fund since its inception. He was associated with UBS Alternative Investments US from 1998 to 2010 and is an Executive Director of UBS HFS. Mr. Sciortino joined the portfolio management team in 2006. Mr. Sciortino was associated with UBS Alternative Investments US from December 2006 to October 2010 and is a Director of UBS HFS. Previously, he served as Senior Analyst at Lake Partners, Inc. from April 2001 through August 2006.

The Fund’s Portfolio Managers manage multiple accounts for the Adviser, including registered closed-end funds and private domestic and offshore pooled investment vehicles.

Potential conflicts of interest may arise because of the Portfolio Managers’ management of the Fund and other accounts. For example, conflicts of interest may arise with the allocation of investment transactions and allocation of limited investment opportunities. Allocations of investment opportunities generally could raise a potential conflict of interest to the extent that the Portfolio Managers may have an incentive to allocate investments that are expected to increase in value to preferred accounts. Conversely, a Portfolio Manager could favor one account over another in the amount or the sequence in which orders to redeem investments are placed. The Portfolio Managers may be perceived to have a conflict of interest if there are a large number of other accounts, in addition to the Fund, that they are managing on behalf of the Adviser. In addition, each Portfolio Manager could be viewed as having a conflict of interest to the extent that one or more Portfolio Managers have an investment in accounts other than the Fund. A potential conflict of interest may also arise if the Adviser receives a performance-based advisory fee from one account but not another because a Portfolio Manager may favor the account subject to the performance fee, whether or not the performance of that account directly determines the Portfolio Manager’s compensation. The Adviser periodically reviews the Portfolio Managers’ overall responsibilities to ensure that they are able to allocate the necessary time and resources to effectively manage the Fund.

Other accounts may have investment objectives, strategies and risks that differ from those of the Fund. For these or other reasons, the Portfolio Managers may purchase different investments for the Fund and the other accounts, and the performance of investments purchased for the Fund may vary from the performance of the investments purchased for other accounts. The Portfolio Managers may place transactions on behalf of other accounts that are directly or indirectly contrary to investment decisions made for the Fund, which could have the potential to adversely impact the Fund, depending on market conditions.

The Adviser’s goal is to provide high quality investment services to all of its clients, while meeting its fiduciary obligation to treat all clients fairly. The Adviser has adopted and implemented policies and procedures, including brokerage and trade allocation policies and procedures, that it believes address the conflicts associated with managing multiple accounts for multiple clients. In addition, the Adviser monitors a variety of areas, including compliance with Fund guidelines. Furthermore, senior investment and business personnel at the Adviser periodically review the performance of the Portfolio Managers.

The Portfolio Managers’ compensation is comprised primarily of a fixed salary and a discretionary bonus paid by the Adviser or its affiliates and not by the Fund. A portion of the discretionary bonus may be paid in shares of funds managed by the Adviser or in shares of stock or stock options of UBS AG, the parent company of the Adviser, subject to certain vesting periods. The amount of a Portfolio Manager’s discretionary bonus, and the portion to be paid in shares of funds managed by the Adviser or in shares of stock or stock options of UBS AG, is determined by senior officers of the Adviser. In general, the amount of the bonus will be based on a combination of factors, none of which is necessarily weighted more than any other factor. These factors may include: the overall performance of the Adviser; the overall performance of UBS AG; the profitability to the Adviser derived from the management of the Fund and the other accounts managed by the Adviser; the absolute performance of the Fund and such other accounts for the preceding year; contributions by the Portfolio Manager to assisting in managing the Adviser; participation by the Portfolio Manager in training of personnel; and support by the Portfolio Manager generally to colleagues. The bonus is not based on a precise formula, benchmark or other metric.

The following table lists the number and types of other accounts advised by the Fund’s Portfolio Managers and approximate assets under management in those accounts as of March 31, 2016.

UBS Hedge Fund Solutions LLC

CODE OF ETHICS FOR PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE

AND SENIOR FINANCIAL OFFICERS

I. Covered Officers/Purpose of the Code

This code of ethics (the “Code”) for the registered funds (each, a “Fund”) (Exhibit A) applies to each Fund’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer and other persons performing similar functions, each of whom is listed on Exhibit B (the “Covered Officers”), for the purpose of promoting:

● honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

● full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Fund files with, or submits to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and in other public communications made by the Fund;

● compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations;

● the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code; and

● accountability for adherence to the Code.

Each Covered Officer should adhere to a high standard of business ethics and should be sensitive to situations that may give rise to actual as well as apparent conflicts of interest.

II. Covered Officers Should Handle Ethically Actual and Apparent Conflicts of Interest

Overview. A “conflict of interest” occurs when a Covered Officer’s private interest interferes with the interests of, or his service to, the Fund. For example, a conflict of interest would arise if a Covered Officer, or a member of his family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his position with the Fund.

Certain conflicts of interest arise out of the relationships between Covered Officers and the Fund and already are subject to conflict of interest provisions in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “ Advisers Act”). For example, Covered Officers may not individually engage in certain transactions (such as the purchase or sale of securities or other property) with the Fund because of their status as “affiliated persons” of the Fund. Policies and procedures applicable to the Fund and the Fund’s investment adviser (collectively, the “Adviser”) are designed to prevent, or identify and correct, violations of these provisions. The Code does not, and is not intended to, repeat or replace these programs and procedures, and the circumstances they cover fall outside of the parameters of the Code.

Revised: April 16, 2012

Revised: December 5, 2013

Revised: May 29, 2014

Revised: July 1, 2015

Although typically not presenting an opportunity for improper personal benefit, conflicts arise from, or as a result of, the contractual relationship between the Fund and the Adviser of which the Covered Officers are also officers or employees. As a result, the Code recognizes that the Covered Officers, in the ordinary course of their duties (whether formally for the Fund or for the Adviser, or for both), will be involved in establishing policies and implementing decisions that will have different effects on the Adviser and the Fund. The participation of the Covered Officers in such activities is inherent in the contractual relationship between the Fund and the Adviser and is consistent with the performance by the Covered Officers of their duties as officers of the Fund and, if addressed in conformity with the provisions of the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act, will be deemed to have been handled ethically.

Other conflicts of interest are covered by the Code, even if such conflicts of interest are not subject to provisions in the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act. Covered Officers should keep in mind that the Code cannot cover every possible scenario. The overarching principle of the Code is that the personal interest of a Covered Officer should not be placed improperly before the interest of the Fund.

Each Covered Officer must:

● not use his personal influence or personal relationships improperly to influence investment decisions or financial reporting by the Fund whereby the Covered Officer would benefit personally to the detriment of the Fund;

● not cause the Fund to take action, or fail to take action, for the individual personal benefit of the Covered Officer rather than the benefit of the Fund;

● not use material non-public knowledge of portfolio transactions made or contemplated for the Fund to trade personally or cause others to trade personally in contemplation of the market effect of such transactions; and

● not retaliate against any employee or Covered Officer for reports of potential violations that are made in good faith.

III. Disclosure and Compliance

● Each Covered Officer should familiarize himself with the disclosure requirements generally applicable to the Fund;

● each Covered Officer should not knowingly misrepresent, or cause others to misrepresent, facts about the Fund to others, whether within or outside the Fund, including to the Fund’s Board members and auditors, and to governmental regulators and self-regulatory organizations; and

● each Covered Officer should, to the extent appropriate within his area of responsibility, consult with other officers and employees of the Fund and the Adviser and take other appropriate steps with the goal of promoting full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in the reports and documents the Fund files with, or submits to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Fund; and

● it is the responsibility of each Covered Officer to promote compliance with the standards and restrictions imposed by applicable laws, rules and regulations.

IV. Reporting and Accountability

Each Covered Officer must:

● upon adoption of the Code (or thereafter, as applicable, upon becoming a Covered Officer), affirm in writing to the Board that he has received, read, and understands the Code;

● annually thereafter affirm to the Board that he/she has complied with the requirements of the Code; and

● notify the Chief Compliance Officer or designee, (collectively the “CCO”) promptly if he/she knows of any violation of the Code. Failure to do so is itself a violation of the Code.

The CCO is responsible for applying the Code to specific situations in which questions are presented under it and has the authority to interpret the Code in any particular situation. However, approvals, interpretations or waivers sought by any Covered Officer will be considered by a committee designated by the Fund’s Board (the “Committee”). In the absence of a designation, the Committee shall be the Board.

The Fund will follow these procedures in investigating and enforcing the Code:

● the CCO will take all appropriate action to investigate any potential violations reported to him;

● if, after such investigation, the CCO believes that no violation has occurred, the CCO is not required to take any further action;

● any matter that the CCO believes is a violation will be reported to the Committee;

● if the Committee determines that a violation has occurred, it will inform and make a recommendation to the Board, which will consider appropriate action, which may include: review of, and appropriate modifications to, applicable policies and procedures; notification to appropriate personnel of the Adviser or its board; or a recommendation to dismiss the Covered Officer;

● the Committee will be responsible for granting waivers, as appropriate; and

● any waivers of or amendments to the Code, to the extent required, will be disclosed as provided by SEC rules.

V. Other Policies and Procedures

The Code shall be the sole code of ethics adopted by the Fund for purposes of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules and forms applicable to registered investment companies thereunder. Insofar as other policies and procedures of the Fund, the Adviser, principal underwriter, or other service providers govern or purport to govern

the behavior or activities of the Covered Officers who are subject to the Code, they are superseded by the Code to the extent that they overlap or conflict with the provisions of the Code. The Fund’s, the Adviser’s codes of ethics under Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act and the Adviser’s additional policies and procedures are separate requirements applying to the Covered Officers and others, and are not part of the Code.

VI. Amendments

Except as to Exhibit B, the Code may not be amended except in written form, which is specifically approved or ratified by a majority vote of the Fund’s Board, including a majority of independent Board members.

VII. Confidentiality

All reports and records prepared or maintained pursuant to the Code will be considered confidential and shall be maintained and protected accordingly. Except as otherwise required by law or the Code, such matters shall not be disclosed to anyone other than the appropriate Funds and their counsel, the appropriate Boards (or Committees) and their counsel and the Adviser.

VIII. Internal Use

The Code is intended solely for the internal use by the Fund and does not constitute an admission, by or on behalf of the Fund, as to any fact, circumstance, or legal conclusion.

IX. Control Process

Initial Contact:

Immediately after the Board officially appoints a Covered Officer, the CCO will furnish a copy of this Code to the Covered Officer. The Covered Officer will be required to submit his/her certification (Exhibit C) to the CCO within 10 days of his/her appointment. The certification will be presented to the Board at the next scheduled Board meeting.

Annual:

At the beginning of October the CCO will furnish the certification (Exhibit C) to the Covered Officers and such signed certifications will be presented to the Board at the November Board meeting.
