Peachtree Alternative Strategies Fund
Notes to the Financial Statements

October 31, 2023 (Unaudited)

1. Organization

Peachtree Alternative Strategies Fund (the “Fund” or “Trust”) was organized on August 19, 2016 as a Delaware statutory trust. The Fund commenced operations on January 3, 2017. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a non-diversified closed-end management investment company and offers interests (“Shares”) registered under the 1940 Act and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Fund operates as a “fund of hedge funds” and provides investors access to a variety of professionally managed private investment funds (each a “Portfolio Fund”) that HB Wealth Management, LLC (the “Adviser”) believes will provide a diversifying return stream to investors. These Portfolio Funds are not registered under the 1940 Act and may be organized outside of the United States (“U.S.”). The Fund currently offers one class of shares (“Institutional Shares”).

Under the Fund’s organizational documents, its officers and Board of Trustees (“Board” or the “Trustees”) are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts with vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund. However, based on experience, the Fund expects that risk of loss to be remote.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The Fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, “Financial Services-Investment Companies”. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

A. Portfolio Fund Transactions and Income Recognition

Investments in Portfolio Funds are recorded on a subscription effective date basis, which is generally the first day of the calendar month in which the investment is effective. Realized gains and losses are calculated on a specific identification method when redemptions are accepted by a Portfolio Fund, which is generally on the last day of the calendar month. Interest income and expense, if any, are accrued each month. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions received from the Fund’s investments in Portfolio Funds generally are comprised of ordinary income and return of capital. For financial statement purposes, the Fund uses return of capital and income estimates to allocate the distribution received. Such estimates are based on historical information available and other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised based on information received from Portfolio Funds after their tax reporting periods are concluded.

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2023 (Unaudited)

B. Investment Valuation and Risks

The Fund will calculate the net asset value (“NAV”) of the Institutional Shares as of the close of business on the last business day of each calendar month and at such other times as the Board may determine, including in connection with the repurchase of Institutional Shares.

Because the Fund invests all or substantially all of its assets in Portfolio Funds, the NAV of the Institutional Shares will depend on the value of the Portfolio Funds. The NAVs of Portfolio Funds are generally not available from pricing vendors, nor are they calculable independently by the Fund or by the Adviser.

Accordingly, the Board has approved procedures pursuant to which the Fund will value its investments in the Portfolio Funds at fair value (the “Valuation Procedures”). Under the Valuation Procedures, the Adviser, as the valuation designee, is responsible for determining the fair value of each Portfolio Fund as of each date upon which the Fund calculates its NAV (the “NAV Date”). The Valuation Procedures require the Adviser to consider all relevant information when assessing and determining the fair value of the Fund’s interest in each Portfolio Fund.

As a general matter, the fair value of the Fund’s interest in a Portfolio Fund will be the amount that the Fund could reasonably expect to receive from the Portfolio Fund if the Fund’s interest in the Portfolio Fund was redeemed as of the NAV Date. In accordance with the Valuation Procedures, the fair value of the Fund’s interest in a Portfolio Fund as of a NAV Date will ordinarily be the most recent NAV reported by an Investment Manager or third-party administrator (“Portfolio Fund Management”). In the event that the last reported NAV of a Portfolio Fund is not as of the NAV Date, the Adviser may use other information that it believes should be taken into consideration in determining the Portfolio Fund’s fair value as of the NAV Date, including benchmark or other triggers to determine any significant market movement that has occurred between the effective date of the most recent NAV reported by the Portfolio Fund and the NAV Date.

Pursuant to the Valuation Procedures, the Adviser may conclude in certain circumstances that, after considering information reasonably available at the time the valuation is made and that the Adviser believes to be reliable, the balance provided by the Portfolio Fund investment managers (“Investment Managers”) does not represent the fair value of the Fund’s interest in the Portfolio Fund. In addition, in the absence of specific transaction activity in the interests of a particular Portfolio Fund, the Adviser could consider whether it was appropriate, in light of all relevant circumstances, to value such a position at the Portfolio Fund’s net assets as reported at the time of valuation, or whether to adjust such value to reflect a premium or discount to the reported net assets.

Investment Managers, who operate Portfolio Funds in which the Fund invests, receive fees for their services. The fees include management and incentive fees, or allocations based upon the net asset value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio Fund. These fees are deducted directly from each Portfolio Fund’s assets in accordance with the governing documents of the Portfolio Fund. Generally, fees payable to an Investment Manager are estimated to range from 1.0% to 3.0% (annualized) of the average NAV of the Fund’s investment in a Portfolio Fund. In addition, certain Investment Managers

Peachtree Alternative Strategies Fund

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2023 (Unaudited)

charge an incentive allocation or fee which can range up to 35% of a Portfolio Fund’s net profits. The impact of these fees is reflected in the Fund’s performance, but are not operational expenses of the Fund. Incentive fees may be subject to certain threshold rates.

The Fund’s interests in Portfolio Funds may also be illiquid and may be subject to substantial restrictions on transferability. The Fund may not be able to acquire initial or additional interests in a Portfolio Fund or withdraw all or a portion of its investment from a Portfolio Fund promptly after it has made a decision to do so because of limitations set forth in that Portfolio Fund’s governing documents. See the Schedule of Investments for more information.

Generally, the fair value of the Fund’s investment in a Portfolio Fund represents the Fund’s proportionate share of that Portfolio Fund’s net assets as reported by applicable Portfolio Fund Management. All valuations were determined by the Adviser consistent with the Fund’s Valuation Procedures and are net of management and incentive fees pursuant to the Portfolio Funds’ applicable agreements. The fair value represents the amount the Fund expects to receive, gross of redemption fees or penalties, at October 31, 2023, if it were to liquidate its investments in the Portfolio Funds.

The valuation techniques described below maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in determining fair value. The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments is not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments. The inputs used for valuing the Fund’s investments are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

●

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments and/or registered investment companies where the value per share is determined and published and is the basis for current transactions for identical assets or liabilities at the valuation date.

●

Level 2 – Quoted prices in markets that are not active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

●

Level 3 – Inputs, broadly referred to as the assumptions that market participants use to make valuation decisions, are unobservable and reflect the Adviser’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the financial instrument at the measurement date.

In determining fair values as of October 31, 2023, the Adviser has, as a practical expedient, estimated fair value of each Portfolio Fund using the NAV (or its equivalent) provided by the Portfolio Fund Management of each Portfolio Fund as of that date. Each investment for which fair value is measured using the Portfolio Fund’s net asset value as a practical expedient is not required to be categorized within the fair value hierarchy. Accordingly, Portfolio Funds with a fair value of $230,485,737 have not been categorized.

Investments in mutual funds and money market mutual funds are generally priced at the ending NAV provided by the service agent of the funds. The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments in such instruments as of October 31, 2023:

Assets	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Money Market Funds	$	9,002,976	$	—	$	—	$	9,002,976

3. Investment Strategies and Risks

The Fund’s investment objective is to create a diversified portfolio of hedge fund strategies that generates attractive risk-adjusted returns relative to traditional asset classes and that generates a return stream that is not highly correlated to equity market performance. The Fund will seek to achieve its investment objective by investing in a variety of hedge fund strategies that the Adviser believes will provide a diversifying return stream to shareholders. For a more detail description, please see the Fund’s prospectus.

Potential strategies for investment include, but are not limited to: (1) long/short equity (taking “long” positions in equity securities of U.S. and foreign issuers that are believed to be likely to increase in value and taking “short” positions in equity securities of U.S. and foreign issuers that are believed to be likely to decline in value); (2) credit long/short (investing in credit-sensitive securities, long and/or short, based upon credit analysis of issuers and securities, and credit market views); (3) distressed credit (using intensive credit analysis to invest in equity and/or fixed income securities of financially troubled U.S. and/or foreign issuers); (4) discretionary macro (investing across a variety of securities and financial instruments of U.S. and foreign issuers based on interpretations of the global macro economy and changes therein on the valuation of such securities and financial instruments). Investments may include equity and fixed income securities, currencies and commodities (i.e., agricultural, metals, energy); (5) managed futures (trading of futures contracts and options on futures contracts as either buyers or sellers of contracts representing real assets such as gold, silver, wheat, coffee, sugar, heating oil, or financial assets such as government bonds, equity indices and currencies to take advantage of investment opportunities in the equity, fixed income, currency and commodity markets), (6) structured credit (investments in residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, other asset-backed securities, collateralized loan obligations and collateralized debt obligations); (7) statistical arbitrage (identifying pricing anomalies in equities and other asset classes. Generally, this strategy utilizes heavy quantitative, computational, and statistical analysis to identify short-term trends that can be taken advantage of in the relevant markets); and (8) multi-strategy (utilizing several of the strategies listed here, and potentially other strategies).

The Fund will have diversified exposure to various hedge fund strategies that fall within 5 main categories: equity related strategies (such as equity long/short), credit related strategies (such as credit long/short and distressed credit), quantitative strategies (such as statistical arbitrage), multi-strategy, and opportunistic investments. Although allocations may vary outside of these ranges based on market conditions and opportunity set, the Fund is generally expected to allocate above 30% to

Peachtree Alternative Strategies Fund

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2023 (Unaudited)

multi-strategy, up to 30% to equity related strategies, up to 30% to credit related strategies, up to 20% to quantitative strategies and up to 20% to opportunistic strategies. Equity related strategies tend to have positive correlation to equity markets. The remaining strategies are intended to have lower correlation to equity markets over time. Investment Managers are likely to invest in an array of securities across the globe, including emerging markets, in order to provide a diversifying return stream that is unrelated to traditional equity market risk factors.

The Adviser will determine the amount to allocate to each strategy. The Adviser intends that amounts will be allocated to at least several of the strategies at all times. Factors that determine the amount that the Adviser will allocate to each strategy include: the Adviser’s opinion of the opportunity set in that strategy, the capacity for investment with high quality managers in a given strategy and overall risk management of the Fund.

In order to implement the strategies, the Investment Managers may utilize one or more approaches, including but not limited to: (1) the effect of economic, political, or corporate changes on the prices of securities (Directional Trading Approach); (2) the effect of events on different securities (Event Driven Approach); (3) perceived valuations of securities (e.g., whether an issuer is overvalued or undervalued) (Fundamental Approach) and (4) a mispricing of securities relative to each other or relative to historic norms (Relative Value Approach).

While it is anticipated that many Portfolio Funds will invest in publicly traded U.S. and foreign common stocks, Portfolio Funds may also use other equity securities such as preferred stock, convertible securities and warrants (“Equity Securities”). Many Portfolio Funds may also invest in fixed income securities such as corporate debt obligations, government securities, municipal securities, financial institution obligations, mortgage-related securities, asset-backed securities and zero-coupon securities issued by U.S. issuers and similar securities issued by foreign issuers (collectively, “Fixed Income Securities”). Fixed Income Securities may have various maturity, duration and quality limitations, and may include high yield fixed income securities or “junk bonds” (higher-risk, lower-rated fixed income securities such as those rated lower than BBB- by Standard & Poor’s Rating Service, Inc. or lower than Baa3 by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.). Many Portfolio Funds may also take long or short positions in Fixed Income Securities as a hedge against the equity or fixed income exposure in its portfolio.

Because Portfolio Funds are not registered under the 1940 Act and their governing documents typically do not impose significant investment restrictions, a Portfolio Fund may without limitation or prior notice to the Adviser, invest and trade in a broad range of securities, derivatives and other financial instruments (collectively, “Assets”). While, generally, each Portfolio Fund carries its investments at fair value, these investments are associated with a varying degree of off-balance sheet risks, including both market and credit risks. Market risk is the risk of potential adverse changes to the value of the Assets because of the changes in market conditions such as interest and currency rate movements and volatility of Asset values. Credit risk is the risk of the potential inability of counterparties to perform the terms of the contracts, which may be in excess of the amounts recorded in the Portfolio Funds’ respective balance sheets. In addition, Portfolio Funds may engage in the short sale of securities. A short sale of a security not owned by a Portfolio Fund involves the sale of a security that is borrowed

Peachtree Alternative Strategies Fund

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2023 (Unaudited)

from a counterparty to complete the sale. The sale of a borrowed security may result in a loss if the price of the borrowed security increases after the sale. Purchasing securities to close out the short position can itself cause their market price to rise further, increasing losses. Furthermore, a short seller may be prematurely forced to close out a short position if a counterparty demands the return of borrowed securities. Losses on short sales are theoretically unlimited, although losses to the Fund are limited to its investment in a particular Portfolio Fund.

4. Investment Advisory Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates

A. Investment Advisory Fees

The Adviser serves as the Fund’s investment adviser. The Adviser receives an annual fee for its services, computed and paid monthly, of 0.75% of the Fund’s month-end net assets. The Fund is responsible for the expenses of the operational due diligence conducted by the Adviser and for the benefit of the Fund.

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to ensure that the total annual Fund operating expenses attributable to the Institutional Shares will not exceed 1.25% (after fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, and exclusive of taxes, interest, portfolio transaction expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses and extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business). The arrangements will continue until, at least, August 31, 2024 and may be terminated by the Board at any time. Expenses reimbursed and/or fees waived by the Adviser pursuant to this contractual agreement may be recouped by the Adviser for a period of three years following the date such reimbursement or waiver was made if such recoupment does not cause current expenses to exceed the expense limit for Institutional Shares in effect at the time the expenses were paid/waived, or any expense limit in effect at the time of repayment. For the six months ended October 31, 2023, the Adviser voluntarily waived 100% of its advisory fees, which amounted to $892,149. This voluntary waiver may be terminated at any time, and any fees waived voluntarily are not subject to recoupment.

B. Administration, Compliance Consulting, Fund Accounting and Transfer Agent Fees

Pursuant to an agreement between the Fund and Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (“Administrator” or “Ultimus”), the Administrator provides administration, compliance consulting, fund accounting and transfer agent services to the Fund and supplies certain officers to the Fund, including a Principal Financial Officer, a Chief Compliance Officer, and an Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Officer. The Fund pays the Administrator a basis point fee, subject to fee minimums, for administrative, fund accounting, and transfer agent services, a fixed annual fee for compliance consulting services and certain out of pocket expenses.

C. Distribution

Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultimus, acts as principal underwriter and distributor of the Fund’s shares of beneficial interest. The Distributor may retain additional broker-dealers and other financial intermediaries (each a “Selling Agent”) to assist in

Peachtree Alternative Strategies Fund

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2023 (Unaudited)

the distribution of shares and shares are available for purchase through these Selling Agents or directly through the Distributor. Generally, shares are only offered to investors that are U.S. persons for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

D. General

Certain officers and an interested trustee of the Fund are officers, directors and/or trustees of the Adviser, Administrator or the Distributor. Independent trustees are paid $3,000 for each regularly scheduled Board meeting and $1,500 for each special Board meeting attended, for their services to the Fund. Interested trustees and officers of the Trust are not paid for services directly by the Fund.

5. Capital Share Transactions

Shares of the Fund will be traded for purchase only through the Distributor, or a Selling Agent, as of the first business day of each month. Capital transactions are recorded on their effective date. To provide a limited degree of liquidity to shareholders, the Fund may from time to time offer to repurchase shares pursuant to written repurchase offers but is not obligated to do so.

Repurchase offers will be made at such times and on such terms as may be determined by the Board in its sole discretion and generally will be offers to repurchase an aggregate specified dollar amount of outstanding Institutional Shares or a specific number of Institutional Shares. Any such offer will be made only on terms that the Board determines to be fair to the Fund and to all shareholders or persons holding Institutional Shares acquired from shareholders. When the Board determines that the Fund will repurchase shares or portions thereof, notice will be provided to each shareholder describing the terms thereof and containing information shareholders should consider in deciding whether and how to participate in such repurchase opportunity. The Board convenes quarterly to consider whether or not to authorize a tender offer. The Board expects that repurchase offers, if authorized, will be made no more frequently than on a quarterly basis and will typically have a valuation date as of March 31, June 30, September 30 or December 31 (or, if any such date is not a business day, on the last business day of such calendar quarter).

During the six months ended October 31, 2023, the Board authorized, and the Fund completed two quarterly repurchase offers. In these offers, the Fund offered to repurchase up to 10% (Repurchase Offer # 1 and # 2) of the net asset value of the Fund’s Institutional Shares as of the repurchase pricing dates. The results of those repurchase offers were as follows:

	Repurchase		Repurchase
	Offer # 1		Offer # 2
Commencement date		4/14/2023		7/14/2023
Repurchase request deadline		5/15/2023		8/15/2023
Repurchase pricing date		6/30/2023		9/30/2023
Value of shares repurchased	$	10,092,583	$	9,885,933
Shares repurchased		96,700		92,843

6. Purchases and Sales of Portfolio Funds

Aggregate purchases and proceeds from sales of Portfolio Funds for the six months ended October 31, 2023 amounted to $3,512,810 and $6,724,683, respectively. There were no purchases or sales of U.S. government obligations for the six months ended October 31, 2023.

7. Distributions

The Fund declares and pays dividends on investment income, if any, annually. The Fund also makes distributions of net capital gains, if any, annually.

8. Line of Credit

The Trust entered into a revolving credit agreement (“Line of Credit”) with Huntington National Bank (“Huntington”) on January 11, 2023, which expires on January 10, 2024. Under the terms of the agreement, the Fund may borrow up to the lesser of 5% of the Fund’s daily market value or $5 million at an interest rate equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 165 basis points. The purpose of the agreement is to meet temporary or emergency cash needs, including redemption requests that might otherwise require the untimely disposition of securities. Huntington receives an annual fee of 0.10% on $5 million as well as an additional annual fee of 0.125% on any unused portion of the credit facility, invoiced quarterly, for providing the Line of Credit. The Fund will not borrow money, except (a) from a bank, provided that immediately after such borrowing there is an asset coverage of 300% for all borrowings of the Fund; or (b) from a bank or other persons for temporary purposes only, provided that such temporary borrowings are in an amount not exceeding 25% of the Fund’s total assets at the time when the borrowing is made. To the extent that the Line of Credit is utilized, it will be collateralized by securities in the Fund’s portfolios.

During the six months ended October 31, 2023, the Fund had no borrowings under this Line of Credit.

9. Federal Income Taxes

It is the policy of the Fund to qualify or continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized capital gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes.

The following information is provided on a tax basis as of October 31, 2023:

Gross unrealized appreciation	$	—
Gross unrealized depreciation		(4,327,252	)
Net unrealized depreciation	$	(4,327,252	)

As of October 31, 2023, the aggregate cost of investment entities for federal tax purposes was $243,815,965. The difference between the federal income tax cost of portfolio investments and the financial statement cost is due to certain timing differences in the recognition of capital gains or losses

Peachtree Alternative Strategies Fund

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2023 (Unaudited)

under income tax regulations and GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are temporary in nature and are primarily due to holdings classified as passive foreign investment companies and differences from partnership investments.

As of October 31, 2023, the following reclassification was made on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the Fund:

			Accumulated
Paid-in Capital			Earnings (Deficit)
$	(24,738	)	$	24,738

Such reclassifications, the result of permanent differences between the financial statement and income tax reporting requirements, had no effect on the Fund’s net assets or NAV per share. The permanent differences consist of non-deductible partnership expenses.

As of October 31, 2023, the components of accumulated earnings (deficit) on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income	$	13,883,710
Undistributed long-term capital gains		—
Accumulated earnings		13,883,710
Accumulated capital and other losses		(2,166,973	)
Unrealized appreciation/(depreciation)		(4,327,252	)
Total	$	7,389,485

The tax character of distributions for the tax years ended October 31, 2023 and October 31, 2022, were as follows:

	October 31,		October 31,
	2023		2022
Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income	$	3,109,297	$	17,279,336
Net long-term capital gains		—		—
Total distributions paid	$	3,109,297	$	17,279,336

As of October 31, 2023, the Fund had available for tax purposes unused capital loss carryforwards of $2,142,818 of long-term capital losses with no expiration, which is available to offset against future taxable net capital gains. To the extent that these carryforwards are used to offset future gains, it is probable that the amount offset will not be distributed to shareholders.

Management of the Fund has reviewed tax positions taken in tax years that remain subject to examination by all major tax jurisdictions, including federal (i.e., the last three tax year ends and the interim tax period since then, as applicable). The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related

Peachtree Alternative Strategies Fund

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2023 (Unaudited)

to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations when incurred. Management believes there is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken.

10. Control Persons

A control person is a shareholder who owns beneficially, or through controlled companies, more than 25% of the voting securities of a company or acknowledges the existence of control. Shareholders owning voting securities in excess of 25% may determine the outcome of any matter affecting and voted on by shareholders of the Fund. As of October 31, 2023, there were no beneficial owners, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% percent of the Fund.

11. Subsequent Events

The Fund announced that the Board had approved a tender offer to purchase up to 10% of the net asset value of the Fund’s Institutional Shares to be calculated at a price equal to the Fund’s Institutional Shares net asset value as of December 29, 2023. The Fund commenced its tender offer on October 13, 2023 and the expiration of the tender offer was on November 13, 2023. The Fund expects to repurchase shares with a value of $7,750,000 and an additional 63,145 shares tendered pursuant to that offer.

Management of the Fund has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date these financial statements were issued. Based upon this valuation, management has determined there were no additional items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosure.

Additional Federal Income Tax Information (Unaudited)

The Form 1099-DIV you will receive in January 2024 will show the tax status of all distributions paid to your account in calendar year 2023. Shareholders are advised to consult their own tax adviser with respect to the tax consequences of their investment in the Fund. As required by the Internal Revenue Code and/or regulations, shareholders must be notified regarding the status of qualified dividend income for individuals and the dividends received deduction for corporations.

Qualified Dividend Income. The Fund designates 0% or up to the maximum amount of such dividends allowable pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code, as qualified dividend income eligible for the reduced tax rate.

Qualified Business Income. The Fund designates 0% of its ordinary income dividends, or up to the maximum amount of such dividends allowable pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code, as qualified business income.

Dividends Received Deduction. Corporate shareholders are generally entitled to take the dividends received deduction on the portion of the Fund’s dividend distribution that qualifies under tax law. For the Fund’s calendar year 2023 ordinary income dividends, 0% qualifies for the corporate dividends received deduction.

For the tax year ended October 31, 2023, the Fund designated $0 as long-term capital gain distributions.

Approval of Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited)

The Board of Trustees (the “Board”), including the Trustees who are not “interested persons” (as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) (the “Independent Trustees”) voting separately, reviewed and approved continuation of the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between HB Wealth Management, LLC (“HB”) and Peachtree Alternative Strategies Fund, a Delaware statutory trust and registered closed-end fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Trust”), on behalf of its sole series of the same name (the “Fund”). The approval took place at a meeting held on September 26, 2023 (the “September Meeting”) at which all of the Independent Trustees were present in person.

Prior to the September Meeting, the Board requested, received and reviewed a substantial amount of information provided by HB (the “Renewal Support Materials”). The Renewal Support Materials included, among other things, information regarding: (1) HB’s organizational structure, management, personnel and proposed services to the Fund; (2) the fees to be paid by the Fund to HB for services rendered under the Advisory Agreement, (3) HB’s projected profitability on services to be rendered to the Fund and related economies of scale; (4) the financial stability of HB; and (5) HB’s compliance program, including HB’s Code of Ethics.

The Board also received a memorandum from counsel to the Fund and the Independent Trustees (“Counsel”) outlining the Board’s duties and legal standards applicable to the consideration and approval of the Advisory Agreement. Counsel discussed with the Trustees the types of information and factors that should be considered by the Board in order to make an informed decision regarding the approval of the Advisory Agreement, including the following material factors: (i) the nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided by HB under the Advisory Agreement; (ii) the investment performance of the Fund; (iii) the costs of the services to be provided and anticipated profits to be realized by HB and its affiliates from HB’s relationship with the Fund; (iv) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized if the Fund grows; (v) whether advisory fee levels reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund’s investors; and (vi) other potential benefits to HB from its relationship with the Fund (collectively, the “Renewal Factors”).

During the September Meeting and prior to approving the Advisory Agreement, the Independent Trustees received a presentation from Mr. Ford Donohue, a Principal of HB and a Portfolio Manager for the Fund, who discussed the services rendered by HB to the Fund, the Fund’s performance, the Fund’s advisory fee and gross and net expense ratios, and the Fund’s AUM. The Independent Trustees also convened with Counsel in executive session to discuss their obligations with respect to the approval of the Advisory Agreement and the Renewal Factors and the information provided by HB applicable thereto.

In considering the Advisory Agreement and reaching its conclusion to renew the Advisory Agreement, the Board reviewed and analyzed the Renewal Factors as set forth below. The Trustees did not identify any particular Renewal Factor or information that was most relevant to their consideration to approve the Advisory Agreement and each Trustee may have afforded different weight to the various Renewal Factors.

Approval of Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) (continued)

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

The Trustees received and considered various data and information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services being provided to the Fund by HB. The Trustees reviewed the most recent Form ADV for HB. The Trustees reviewed the qualifications, background and responsibilities of the members of HB’s portfolio management team who oversee the day-to-day investment management and operations of the Fund. The Trustees discussed the portfolio management services provided to the Fund, including allocating the Fund’s assets to the Portfolio Funds and maintaining the Fund’s diversification across Portfolio Fund strategies. The Trustees also considered HB’s plans for marketing the Fund, particularly with respect to attracting investors that are not clients of HB, noting that HB had entered into an agreement with a third-party to market the Fund to third-party advisors, but had yet to make any payments under the agreement. The Trustees also considered HB’s process for identifying investment managers and hedge funds in which the Fund will invest and HB’s use of an independent third party that provides research services and performs operational due diligence on potential Portfolio Funds. The Trustees considered the support resources available for investment research, compliance and operations. After further discussion, the Trustees concluded that they were satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the investment advisory services provided to the Fund by HB.

Performance of the Fund

The Trustees compared the performance of the Fund with the performance of its benchmark indexes, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the “Aggregate Bond Index”) and the MSCI All Country World Index (the “MSCI ACWI Index”) and similarly structured closed-end multi-strategy funds of hedge funds that provide the possibility for quarterly tender offers (the “Peer Group”). The Trustees considered that since the Fund’s inception through July 31, 2023, the Fund had an annualized return of 3.7% and had outperformed its absolute return benchmark of cash +3% over this time period. The Trustees also considered that the Fund had outperformed a blended portfolio comprised of 80% of the Aggregate Bond Index and 20% of the MSCI ACWI Index over that time period. The Trustees also considered that the Fund was tied for the third highest sharpe ratio (a measure of risk-adjusted return that describes how much excess return an investor receives for the volatility of holding a riskier asset) and had the third highest annualized return in the five fund Peer Group for the period from January 1, 2017 through July 31, 2023. After further discussion, the Trustees concluded that they were satisfied with the Fund’s performance.

Cost of Advisory Services and Profitability

The Trustees considered the financial condition of HB based on its yearly revenues and profit margins. The Trustees next considered information regarding the Fund’s expense ratio and its various components, including HB’s decision to contractually cap the Fund’s annual operating expense and HB’s recommendation to keep the advisory fee at 0.75%. The Trustees also considered the fact that HB has been voluntarily waiving its entire advisory fee and would continue to do so until there is a critical mass of approximately $20 million and $30 million from investors in the Fund who are not advisory clients of HB. The Board also noted that the Adviser committed to notifying the Board and shareholders well in advance of making such a change. The Trustees considered the cost to the Fund for the services provided by the independent third party providing research and due diligence

Approval of Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) (continued)

services, as well as the cost savings realized through the use of the independent third party that provides research services and performs operational due diligence on potential Portfolio Funds. The Trustees also reviewed HB’s pro forma profitability analysis over a 12-month period, HB’s estimated operational overhead allocable to the services provided to the Fund and HB’s insurance arrangements. The Trustees concluded that HB’s projected profitability was reasonable and that HB’s assets, coupled with its insurance coverage, were sufficient to cover potential liabilities incurred under the Advisory Agreement.

Comparative Fee and Expense Data; Economies of Scale

The Trustees noted that HB voluntarily waived its entire advisory fee for the past year. The Trustees also noted that while HB agreed to cap the Fund’s total expense ratio at 1.25%, the Fund’s total expense ratio was expected to be even lower. The Trustees considered that the Fund’s total net expense ratio (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses) was the lowest in the seven fund Peer Group. The Trustees also considered HB’s representation that it would continue to voluntarily waive its entire advisory fee. The Trustees noted that HB’s voluntary fee waiver and the increase in the Fund’s assets since inception have led to lower fees for the Fund’s shareholders, and that currently there were no economies of scale for the benefit of fund investors given the fee waiver. After further discussion, the Trustees concluded that the fees to be paid to HB under the Advisory Agreement and the Fund’s projected overall expenses are reasonable.

Other Benefits

The Trustees considered HB’s representation that if the Fund’s assets grow significantly, HB may develop relationships with many new investment managers of the hedge funds in which the Fund invests and this may benefit HB by providing its advisory clients with access to other investment products offered by the investment managers. The Trustees concluded that the anticipated benefits to be realized by HB from managing the Fund were acceptable.

Conclusion

After full consideration of the above Factors as well as other factors, the Trustees concluded that the overall arrangements between the Fund and HB as set forth in the Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable in light of the services performed, fees paid and such other matters as the Trustees considered relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment and the Trustees unanimously concluded that approval of the renewal of the Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan (Unaudited)

Shareholders will automatically participate in the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“DRIP”) and have all income dividends and/or capital gains distributions automatically reinvested in additional Institutional Shares unless they elect in writing to receive distributions in cash in their Subscription Agreement with the Fund. Ultimus (the “Agent”) acts as the agent for participants under the DRIP. Participants in the DRIP will receive an amount of Institutional Shares equal to the amount of the distribution on that Participant’s Institutional Shares divided by the immediate post-distribution NAV per Share of the Institutional Shares.

Shareholders who elect not to participate in the DRIP will receive all distributions in cash paid by wire (or, if the Institutional Shares are held in street or other nominee name, then to the nominee) by Ultimus as dividend paying agent. The automatic reinvestment of dividends and distributions will not relieve participants of any income taxes that may be payable (or required to be withheld) on dividends and distributions.

A shareholder may withdraw from the DRIP at any time. There will be no penalty for withdrawal from the DRIP and shareholders who have previously withdrawn from the DRIP may rejoin it at any time. Changes in elections must be in writing and should include the shareholder’s name and address as they appear on the records of the Fund. An election to withdraw from the DRIP will, until such election is changed, be deemed to be an election by a shareholder to take all subsequent distributions in cash. An election will be effective only for a distribution declared and having a record date of at least 10 days after the date on which the election is received. A shareholder who’s Institutional Shares are held in the name of a broker or nominee should contact such broker or nominee concerning changes in that shareholder’s election.

Questions concerning the DRIP should be directed to the Agent at P.O. Box 46707, Cincinnati, OH 45246-0707 or (800) 657-3812.
