EXHIBIT A ANNEX A INVESTMENT GUIDELINES The value of Collateral Fund Interest shall be reduced by an amount determined by application of the haircuts set forth below. The resulting value, after application of the relevant haircut, will be the Adjusted Market Value of the Collateral Fund Interest. All determinations in respect of haircuts shall be made by the Calculation Agent. Subject to agreement by Issuing Lender, which is not to be unreasonably withheld, and subject to a limit of one (1) time per calendar quarter, no haircut shall apply in respect of a cured condition if Borrower can demonstrate to Issuing Lender that the condition on the reporting date leading to a haircut no longer exists at the time of delivery of the report. Volatility If the Collateral Fund has a Volatility Percentage greater than or equal to 17%, the Adjusted Market Value (before any such adjustment) shall be multiplied by a factor equal to (i) 17% divided by (ii) the Volatility Percentage, to give a new Adjusted Market Value. “Volatility Percentage” means the annualized standard deviation of the Collateral Fund calculated using the 12 most recent monthly returns. Liquidity Applying a Liquidation Period of one (1) day, if the Collateral Fund has Liquidity less than or equal to 50%, the Adjusted Market Value (before any such adjustment) shall be multiplied by a factor equal to (i) Liquidity divided by (ii) 50%, to give a new Adjusted Market Value. Subject to agreement by Issuing Lender, which is not to be unreasonably withheld, no haircut shall apply if Borrower can demonstrate to Issuing Lender that a market holiday causes the measurement of Liquidity to be in error and subsequent measurements of Liquidity unaffected by market holidays would not lead to such an error. Applying a Liquidation Period of three (3) days, if the Collateral Fund has Liquidity less than or equal to 80%, the Adjusted Market Value (before any such adjustment) shall be multiplied by a factor equal to (i) Liquidity divided by (ii) 80%, to give a new Adjusted Market Value. Subject to agreement by Issuing Lender, which is not to be unreasonably withheld, no haircut shall apply if Borrower can demonstrate to Issuing Lender that a market holiday causes the measurement of Liquidity to be in error and subsequent measurements of Liquidity unaffected by market holidays would not lead to such an error. “Liquidity” means the percentage of assets of the Collateral Fund (determined on a look- through basis to the Strategy Funds) that can be liquidated within a specified number of days (the “Liquidation Period”), which is calculated as the estimated reduction in the Collateral Fund’s gross market value (for this purpose, calculated as the sum of (x) the market value of all long positions and (y) the absolute value of the sum of the market value of all short positions, in each case, held directly or indirectly by the Collateral Fund (the “Liquidity GMV”)) over that number of days divided by the Liquidity GMV as of the reporting date. The Liquidity GMV takes into account all positions in the relevant portfolio with the exception of a small number of out of universe positions that may exist, which


 
Annex A-2 positions generally consist of equities or related derivatives that arise from corporate actions, manual FX or equity hedge positions, or miscellaneous positions such as bonds posted to counterparties as margin (the “Out of Universe Positions”). The estimated reduction in Liquidity GMV is calculated by assuming that, for each day in the Liquidation Period, up to 15% of the average daily volume over the past 20 days of a particular position can be traded. There is no observable market volume for FX, FX Options, and other OTC derivatives; therefore internally estimated daily volumes provided by the Borrower (acting in good faith) shall be used to compute the average daily volume over the prior 20 days. Cash equivalents held at Two Sigma Hamilton Fund, LLC shall be excluded from the liquidation calculation. Leverage In the event the STV GMV-to-Capital Ratio is greater than (x) at any time during the Transition Period, 12 or (y) at any other time, 11, the Adjusted Market Value (before any such adjustment) of the STV Strategy Allocation shall be multiplied by a factor equal to (i) 12 or 11, as applicable, divided by (ii) the STV GMV-to-Capital Ratio, in determining the Adjusted Market Value. “STV GMV-to-Capital Ratio” means the STV GMV divided by the STV Strategy Allocation. In the event the ESTV GMV-to-Capital Ratio is greater than (x) at any time during the Transition Period, 12 or (y) at any other time, 11, the Adjusted Market Value (before any such adjustment) of the ESTV Strategy Allocation shall be multiplied by a factor equal to (i) 12 or 11, as applicable, divided by (ii) the ESTV GMV-to-Capital Ratio, in determining the Adjusted Market Value. “ESTV GMV-to-Capital Ratio” means the ESTV GMV divided by the ESTV Strategy Allocation. In the event the FTV Margin-to-Equity Ratio is greater than 50%, the Adjusted Market Value (before any such adjustment) of the FTV Strategy Allocation shall be multiplied by a factor equal to (i) 50% divided by (ii) the FTV Margin-to-Equity Ratio, in determining the Adjusted Market Value. “FTV Margin-to-Equity Ratio” means (i) that portion of margin required to be posted by FTV allocated to the FTV Strategy Allocation divided by (ii) the FTV Strategy Allocation. In the event the STV Strategy Allocation has a NMV-to-Capital Ratio of more than 75%, the Adjusted Market Value (before such adjustment) of the STV Strategy Allocation shall be multiplied by a factor equal to (i) 75% divided by (ii) the NMV-to-Capital Ratio, to give a new Adjusted Market Value. In the event the ESTV Strategy Allocation has a NMV-to-Capital Ratio of more than 75%, the Adjusted Market Value (before such adjustment) of the ESTV Strategy Allocation shall be multiplied by a factor equal to (i) 75% divided by (ii) the NMV-to-Capital Ratio, to give a new Adjusted Market Value. “NMV-to-Capital Ratio” means the NMV of the Collateral Fund’s allocation to STV or ESTV, as applicable, divided by the capital allocated to the STV Strategy Allocation or the ESTV Strategy Allocation, as applicable.


 
Annex A-3 “Net Market Value” or “NMV” means the dollar delta of the long positions minus the absolute dollar delta of the short positions. Unencumbered Cash In the event the Collateral Fund has Unencumbered Cash of less than 15% of the Collateral Fund’s net asset value, the Adjusted Market Value (before any such adjustment) shall be multiplied by a factor equal to (i) the percentage of Unencumbered Cash held by the Collateral Fund divided by (ii) 15%, to give a new Adjusted Market Value. “Unencumbered Cash” means cash held by the Collateral Fund that is free and clear of any encumbrances such as creditor claims or Liens, other than Liens in favor of the custodian or bank that maintains the account in which such assets are held, such Liens to be only in respect of costs, fees, intraday advances to facilitate the settlement of cash equivalent securities and indemnities, in each case related to the maintenance of such account and the assets held therein. For the avoidance of doubt, Unencumbered Cash shall not include cash or Cash Equivalents that are subject to a Lien or creditor claim with respect to extensions of credit by such bank or custodian, its affiliate or other Person (other than intraday advances by the Custodian or any successor or additional cash management custodian to facilitate the settlement of cash equivalent securities) or with respect to costs, fees, indemnities or other liabilities related to any other account or asset of such Person.
