11 investment opportunities among the Company and the Other Accounts; (iii) a Managing Member Related Person may engage in, or cause or advise other customers to engage in, transactions that may differ from or be identical to the transactions engaged in by the Managing Member for the Company’s account; (iv) no Managing Member Related Person shall have any obligation to engage in any transaction for the Company’s account or to recommend any transaction to the Company that any Managing Member Related Person may engage in for its own account or the account of any Other Account, except as otherwise required by applicable law; and (v) to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Managing Member shall be permitted to bunch or aggregate orders for the Company’s account with orders for Other Accounts. (c) By reason of the investment advisory and other activities of a Managing Member Related Person, Managing Member Related Persons may acquire confidential information or otherwise be restricted from initiating transactions in certain Instruments. It is acknowledged and agreed that, except as required by the Act, Managing Member Related Persons may not be free to divulge, or to act upon, any such confidential information and that, due to such a restriction, Managing Member Related Persons may not initiate certain transactions the Managing Member Related Persons otherwise might have initiated. It is further acknowledged and agreed that each of the Managing Member Related Persons shall, for itself and on behalf of the Company, disclose such information to governmental and regulatory authorities as the Company may be required to by such authorities. (d) No Member shall, by reason of being a member of the Company, have any right to participate in any manner in any profits or income earned or derived by or accruing to any Managing Member Related Person from the conduct of any business other than the business of the Company or from any transaction in Instruments effected by such Managing Member Related Person for any account other than that of the Company.

(h) To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, the Members hereby waive any right, and covenant not, to sue on the basis of any law or in equity by reason of, or in connection with, any act or omission of a Managing Member Related Person, if such act or omission is permitted by or is otherwise consistent with this Section 3.4 unless such act or omission is the result of Disabling Conduct. (i) The Members acknowledge and agree that the Managing Member has appointed an independent advisory committee (the “Independent Committee”) of the Company to review and either approve or disapprove any principal transaction requiring consent under Section 206(3) of the Investment Advisers Act.

Further, upon receipt of written consent in favor of a revocation from the Members by such amount as would be required for an amendment of this Agreement by the Managing Member, the Managing Member shall revoke the appointment of the Independent Committee, and the Independent Committee shall thereafter no longer review and/or approve or disapprove any transactions. 3.5.

13 (i) any act taken or failed to be taken by any such Managing Member Related Person (including losses due to trade errors which will be borne by the Company) except for any such act or failure to act that constitutes Disabling Conduct on the part of such Managing Member Related Person, (ii) any action or omission by any Member or (iii) any mistake, negligence, misconduct or bad faith of any broker or other agent or representative of the Company selected by any Managing Member Related Person with reasonable care. Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent that, at law or in equity, any Managing Member Related Person has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Company, the Trading Entities or to any Member, no Managing Member Related Person acting under this Agreement shall be liable to the Company or any Member for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation Section 3.4, to the extent that they modify, restrict or eliminate the duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities of any Managing Member Related Person otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the parties hereto to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Person. (b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Managing Member Related Person shall have any personal liability to the Company or any Member solely by reason of any change in U.S. federal, state or local or non-U.S. income tax laws, or in interpretations thereof, as they apply to the Company or the Members, whether the change occurs through legislative, judicial or administrative action. (c) Any Managing Member Related Person may consult legal counsel or accountants selected by it and any act or omission in good faith by it on behalf of the Company or in furtherance of the business of the Company in good faith reliance on and in accordance with the advice of such counsel or accountants shall be full justification for the act or omission, and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Managing Member Related Person shall be liable to the Company or any Member in so acting or omitting to act if such Managing Member Related Person selected such counsel or accountants with reasonable care. (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 3.5 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall constitute a waiver by a Member of any of its legal rights under U.S. federal securities law or any other law whose applicability is not permitted to be contractually waived. (e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the provisions of Section 3.4(h), Section 3.5 and Section 3.6 shall not be construed so as to provide for the exculpation and indemnification of any Managing Member Related Person for any liability (including liability under U.S. federal securities laws which, under certain circumstances, impose liability even on persons that act in good faith), to the extent (but only to the extent) that such exculpation or indemnification would be in violation of Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
14 applicable law, but shall instead be construed so as to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.4(h), Section 3.5 and Section 3.6 to the fullest extent permitted by law. 3.6. Indemnification. (a) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Managing Member Related Person (the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, actions, suits, proceedings, assessments, liabilities, damages, losses (including losses due to trade errors caused by such persons), costs and expenses, including amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromises and settlements, as fines and penalties or other costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses, taxes and penalties) (the “Indemnifiable Items”), to which they may be or become subject by reason of their activities on behalf of the Company and/or the Trading Entities, except to the extent that such Indemnifiable Items were incurred as a result of such Indemnitee’s Disabling Conduct. The termination of any proceeding by settlement, judgment, order, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Indemnitee’s conduct constituted Disabling Conduct. The Company, as a member of a Trading Entity, will bear its pro rata share of any Indemnifiable Items of such Trading Entity. (b) Expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses, taxes and penalties) incurred by an Indemnitee in defense or settlement of any claim that may be subject to a right of indemnification hereunder may be advanced by the Company prior to the final disposition thereof upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay the amount advanced to the extent that it shall be determined ultimately that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified hereunder. The right of any Indemnitee to the indemnification provided herein shall be cumulative of, and in addition to, any and all rights to which the Indemnitee may otherwise be entitled by contract or as a matter of law or equity and shall be extended to the Indemnitee’s successors, assigns and legal representatives. Any judgments against the Company and a Managing Member Related Person in respect of which the Managing Member Related Person is entitled to indemnification shall first be satisfied from Company assets before the Managing Member Related Person is responsible therefor. 3.7. Liability of the Members. Except as provided in the Act, in no event shall any Member (or former Member) be obligated to make any additional contribution to the Company, or have any liability for the repayment and discharge of the debts and obligations of the Company (apart from its interest in the Company). 3.8. No Obligation to Replenish Negative Capital Account. Except as may be otherwise required by law, no Member shall have any obligation at any time to contribute any funds to replenish any negative balance in its Capital Account.

15 3.9. Powers of Members. No Member (except the Managing Member), as such, shall take part in or interfere in any manner with the management, conduct or control of the business or affairs of the Company or have any right or authority to act for or bind the Company. In addition, to the extent permitted by law, no Member shall have the right or power to bring an action for petition against the Company or cause the termination and dissolution of the Company, except as set forth in this Agreement.

(b) The Investment Manager shall act in conformity with this Agreement, the Investment Management Agreement and with the instructions and directions of the Managing Member.

16 Asset Value of the Company allocable to each such Member shall be determined by the Administrator in conjunction with the Investment Manager, under the direction of the Managing Member, based on the Company’s Net Asset Value as of the beginning of the first calendar day of the month, gross of any accrued Incentive Allocation, Modified Incentive Allocation and Additional Incentive Allocation. The Management Fee shall be borne solely by such Members, pro rata based on the balance of their respective Capital Accounts as of the beginning of the first calendar day of the applicable month. The Management Fee for a period of less than a full calendar month shall be prorated based on the actual number of calendar days in such period. The Managing Member, in consultation with the Investment Manager, may waive, reduce or modify the Management Fee for any Member. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be charged any additional management fees by the Trading Entities. (b) Upon the admission of any Additional Member or the making of any additional Capital Contribution by any Member, the Investment Manager shall receive such Member’s share of the Management Fee calculated in accordance with Section 4.2(a). 4.3.

ARTICLE V CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS;ADMISSION OF ADDITIONAL MEMBERS;ACCOUNTS; ALLOCATIONS 5.1. Sub-Series of Interests. The Company has Interests designated as “Sub- Series A Interests” and “Sub-Series B Interests.” The Managing Member may establish and offer additional or different series and/or sub-series and classes and/or sub-classes of Interests in the Company, from time to time. Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
18 5.2. Capital Contributions. (a) Each Member will make a Capital Contribution to the Company consisting of cash in the amount to be set forth in the books and records of the Company. (b) On the first Business Day of any month or any other date chosen by the Managing Member in its sole discretion, the Managing Member may, without the approval of any Member, admit one or more additional Members (“Additional Members”) or accept additional Capital Contributions from any existing Member, who shall be considered an Additional Member to the extent of such additional Capital Contributions, subject to satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) each Additional Member shall execute and deliver a counterpart of this Agreement and the Subscription Agreement related thereto (other than in connection with an additional Capital Contribution by any existing Member, in which case such existing Member shall execute and deliver to the Managing Member a letter, reaffirming all representations and warranties made by such Member in connection with the related Subscription Agreement as of the date of such additional Capital Contribution), (ii) such admission or additional Capital Contribution, as the case may be, would not, in the judgment of the Managing Member, result in a violation of any applicable law, including the U.S. federal securities laws, or any term or condition of this Agreement, (iii) as a result of such admission, (A) the Company would not be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (B) the Company would not be treated as an association taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (C) the Company would not cease to be eligible for an exemption under Rule 4.7 of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission under the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, and (D) the assets of the Company would not be deemed to be “plan assets” under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or the regulations thereunder, and (iv) the Managing Member in good faith believes that such additional Capital Contribution will not materially adversely affect the investment strategy of the Company. Upon the admission of any Additional Member or the making of an additional Capital Contribution by a Member, the assets of the Company shall be valued by the Managing Member in accordance with Section 6.6. (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in its sole discretion, the Managing Member may refuse any request from any Member to make additional Capital Contributions to the Company. 5.3. Capital and Memorandum Accounts. (a) Each Member shall have a Capital Account to which shall be credited the amount of any Capital Contributions made by such Member pursuant to Section 5.2(a) or 5.1(b). A Member’s Capital Account shall be increased from time to time by the amount of (i) any additional Capital Contributions to the Company made by such Member pursuant to Section 5.2(b) and (ii) any Net Profit allocated to such Member in accordance with Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
19 Section 5.4. A Member’s Capital Account shall be decreased by the amount of (x) any Net Loss allocated to such Member in accordance with Section 5.4 and (y) any distribution (including any distribution in respect of withdrawals made pursuant to Article VII) made to such Member. (b) The Managing Member shall maintain a memorandum account entitled “Cumulative Loss Account” for each Member, as determined from time to time by the Managing Member in its sole discretion, which shall initially have a balance of zero. As of the last day of each Fiscal Quarter (and as of each other date that any such Member withdraws all or a portion of its Capital Account), the Cumulative Loss Account shall be increased by any Net Loss allocated to such Member for such Fiscal Quarter (or Accounting Periods included in such portion of Fiscal Quarter in the case of withdrawal) and shall be reduced, but not below zero, by any Net Profit allocated to such Member for such Fiscal Quarter, in each case pursuant to Section 5.4. The Cumulative Loss Account of such Member shall, upon withdrawal by such Member of any portion of its Capital Account, be reduced, but not below zero, by an amount (the “Withdrawn Cumulative Loss Account Amount”) equal to the sum of (i) any Net Loss allocated to such Member for such Fiscal Quarter or Accounting Periods included in such portion of Fiscal Quarter, as the case may be, in respect of such withdrawn interest and (ii) the product of (x) the balance in such Member’s Cumulative Loss Account immediately prior to such withdrawal (not including any Net Loss (or, in the case of a withdrawal other than as of the last day of a Fiscal Quarter, not including any Net Profit) allocated to such Member for such Fiscal Quarter or Accounting Periods included in such portion of Fiscal Quarter, as the case may be) and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of capital so withdrawn and the denominator of which is the Capital Account Balance of such Member immediately prior to such withdrawal. The Cumulative Loss Account of any Member shall be otherwise adjusted by the Managing Member at such other times as it shall determine appropriate to carry out the purposes of this Agreement. 5.4. Allocation of Profits and Losses. (a) After the close of each Accounting Period, the Company shall allocate Net Profit and Net Loss for such Accounting Period to each Member in accordance with each Member’s Sharing Percentage and shall make such further allocations as provided in this Section 5.4. The Company shall make the following further allocations: (i) in the event that any Member withdraws any portion of its Capital Account, the Company shall reverse all such allocations of Net Profit and Net Loss previously made in respect of the withdrawn portion of such Capital Account for all Accounting Periods included in the portion of the Fiscal Quarter ending with such withdrawal and shall thereafter determine the Net Profit or Net Loss for such portion of the Fiscal Quarter and allocate such Net Profit or Net Loss to such Member in accordance with this Section 5.4; and (ii) as of the last day of each Fiscal Quarter, the Company shall reverse all such allocations of Net Profit and Net Loss previously made to each Member for all Accounting Periods included within such Fiscal Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
20 Quarter other than those specified in clause (i) and shall thereafter determine the Net Profit or Net Loss for such Fiscal Quarter and allocate such Net Profit or Net Loss to each Member in accordance with this Section 5.4. (b) Any Net Loss allocated to any Member with respect to any Accounting Period in accordance with Section 5.4(a) shall be allocated to such Member, provided (i) that no portion of such Net Loss shall be allocated to any Member if and to the extent that such allocation would create a negative Capital Account Balance for such Member, and (ii) that any Net Loss not allocated by reason of clause (i) shall be allocated among the other Members, to the extent permitted by clause (i), in accordance with their respective Sharing Percentages for such Accounting Period, and any balance remaining thereafter shall be allocated to the Managing Member. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.4, any Net Profit that would otherwise be allocated to any Member who was not allocated any amount of Net Loss pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 5.4(b) shall be allocated to other Members by the Managing Member in an equitable manner to reverse the effect of such clause (i) and achieve the objectives of this Section 5.4. (c) Any Net Profit allocated to any Member for such Fiscal Quarter (or to such a withdrawing Member for such Accounting Period) shall be allocated between such Member and the Managing Member as follows: (i) First, so long as there is any balance in the Cumulative Loss Account of such Member and thereafter until such Member has been allocated Net Profits in an amount equal to 200% of such Cumulative Loss Account with the appropriate adjustments to reflect withdrawals and other factors as determined by the Managing Member in its sole discretion, the Managing Member (or its Affiliate) shall be allocated the Modified Incentive Allocation and such Member shall be allocated the balance of any such Net Profit (provided that in the case of a withdrawal as of a date other than the last day of any Fiscal Quarter by such Member of less than its entire Capital Account, only up to the Withdrawn Cumulative Loss Account Amount); and then (ii) Second, the Managing Member (or its Affiliate) shall be allocated the Incentive Allocation and such Member shall be allocated the balance of any such Net Profit (less the Additional Incentive Allocation, if any). (d) In addition to the Incentive Allocation, the Managing Member shall be allocated the Additional Incentive Allocation. Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
21 (e) In order to ensure that the Incentive Allocation, Modified Incentive Allocation and/or Additional Incentive Allocation are properly allocated with respect to each Member’s Capital Account, the Company shall create a new sub-account in each Member’s Capital Account on the first investment date and additional sub-accounts on each date during a calendar year that a Member makes an additional investment in the Company (each such sub-account, a “Capital Sub-Account”). For example, if a Member makes an investment on January 1 and again on February 1, the Company will issue Capital Sub-Account One on January 1 and Capital Sub-Account Two on February 1. The reason for the different Capital Sub-Accounts is to equitably reflect the differing incentive allocations attributable to each such Capital Sub-Account (because of the differing investment dates throughout the applicable period). At the end of each calendar year, after the Incentive Allocation, Modified Incentive Allocation and/or Additional Incentive Allocation, if any, has been allocated, each outstanding Capital Sub-Account other than those whose immediately subsequent gains will still be subject to the Modified Incentive Allocation shall be combined into Capital Sub-Account One (or such other Capital Sub- Account that is not subject to the Modified Incentive Allocation). At the end of each calendar year, each Capital Sub-Account whose immediately subsequent gains will still be subject to the Modified Incentive Allocation shall not be so combined, and the Company will continue to track any such Capital Sub-Account separately until the end of a calendar year with respect to which the Managing Member (or its Affiliate) is entitled to receive an Incentive Allocation with respect to such Capital Sub-Account. Whenever a Member withdraws all or a portion of its investment, the Company shall account for such withdrawal using a “first in, first out” methodology (i.e., the Company shall deem such Member to be withdrawing from the oldest Capital Sub-Account first and then, to the extent that such Member withdraws an amount greater than the balance in the oldest Capital Sub-Account, from the next oldest Capital Sub-Account and so on). (f) New Issues. Although the Company currently does not intend to do so, in the event the Company’s assets are invested in securities that are considered to be New Issues, the Managing Member shall be permitted to take all actions as it deems necessary to ensure that profits and losses from New Issues are allocated among the Members in a manner permitted under the New Issues Rules. In this regard, the Managing Member is authorized to determine, among other things: (i) the manner in which profits and losses from New Issues are purchased, held, transferred and sold by the Company and any adjustments with respect thereto; (ii) the Members who are eligible and ineligible to participate in the profits and losses from New Issues; (iii) the method by which profits and losses from New Issues are to be allocated among Members (including whether the Company will avail itself of a “de minimis” exemption or any other exemption); and (iv) the time at which New Issues are no longer considered as such under the New Issues Rules. Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
22 5.5. Tax Matters. (a) For U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes, income, gains, losses and deductions (and items thereof) realized by the Company generally shall be allocated among the Members to the extent permitted under the Code and the Treasury Regulations, in accordance with the manner in which such items are allocated to the Members in accordance with Section 5.4, provided that (i) in the case of any Member withdrawing all or a portion of its interest in the Company pursuant to Section 7.4, the Managing Member shall specially allocate such items of income and gains to such Member in an amount not to exceed the amount by which the aggregate amount of the excess of Net Profit over Net Loss then or theretofore allocated to such Member with respect to such withdrawn interest exceeds the net amount of taxable income and gain then or theretofore allocated to such Member with respect to such withdrawn interest, and (ii) in the case of any Member withdrawing all of its interest in the Company pursuant to Section 7.4, the Managing Member shall specially allocate such items of losses and deductions to such Member in an amount not to exceed the amount by which the aggregate amount of the excess of Net Loss over Net Profit then or theretofore allocated to such Member with respect to such withdrawn interest exceeds the net amount of tax losses and deductions then or theretofore allocated to such Member with respect to such withdrawn interest. (b) The Managing Member shall equitably allocate tax credits among all Members. (c) The Managing Member may in its sole discretion make an election under section 754 of the Code at such time as it determines that making such an election is in the best interests of one or more of the Members and shall in its sole discretion make such other tax elections as it determines are beneficial to the Company or the Members. (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.5, the Managing Member shall have the power to make such allocations for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes as may be necessary to maintain substantial economic effect, or to insure that such allocations are in accordance with the interests of the Members in the Company, in each case within the meaning of the Code and the Treasury Regulations. All matters concerning allocations for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes, including accounting procedures, not expressly provided for in this Agreement shall be equitably determined in good faith by the Managing Member. The Managing Member shall designate the “tax matters partner” of the Company, as provided in the Treasury Regulations pursuant to section 6231 of the Code (and any similar provisions under any other state or local or non-U.S. tax laws) and the “partnership representative” of the Company pursuant to section 6223(a) of the Code for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2018. The partnership representative shall have the power to make the election described in section 6226 of the Code. Each Member hereby consents to such designation and agrees that upon the request of the Managing Member it will execute, certify, Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
23 acknowledge, deliver, swear to, file and record at the appropriate public offices such documents as may be necessary or appropriate to evidence such consent. The Managing Member shall not permit the Company to elect, and the Company shall not elect, to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal, state or local income tax purposes under Treasury Regulations section 301.7701-3(a) or under any corresponding provision of state or local law. 5.6. Sharing Percentages. Each Member shall have a sharing percentage (“Sharing Percentage”) for any Accounting Period equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is such Member’s Capital Account Balance as of the first day of such Accounting Period and the denominator of which is the sum of the Capital Account Balances of all Members as of such date, provided that appropriate adjustments shall be made for any Capital Contributions to or withdrawals from the Company by any Member or distributions by the Company to any Member during such Accounting Period. 5.7. Separate Computations. The computations required to be made pursuant to this Article V may be made separately with respect to the investment of each Member in the Company, or with respect to separate contributions to or withdrawals from the Company of a particular Member, to reflect appropriately the different times at which different Members may have contributed capital to the Company or withdrawn capital from the Company and the Net Asset Values at such times. Such separate computations may include, without limitation, separate determinations of Capital Accounts and all elements thereof with respect to each such Member’s or separate portions of a Member’s interest in the Company. ARTICLE VI NET ASSET VALUE; DISTRIBUTIONS 6.1. Net Asset Value. The Managing Member from time to time shall determine the Net Asset Value of the Company in accordance with Section 6.6 and may appoint one or more Persons to assist it in the determination of the value of Instruments and to make the actual calculations pursuant to its directions. 6.2. When Determined. Subject to Section 7.5, the Net Asset Value of the Company shall be determined as of the close of: (a) the last day of a month; (b) the day of the dissolution of the Company pursuant to Article VIII; and (c) any such other day as the Managing Member deems necessary or appropriate. Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
24 6.3. Distributions. (a) After the close of any Fiscal Year, the Managing Member may in its sole discretion from time to time distribute to a Member all or a portion of the Net Profit allocated to such Member during such year, without duplication of any distribution to be made under Section 7.4. (b) In lieu of cash, the Managing Member may in its sole discretion distribute securities or other investments as distributions in kind. Such securities or other investments distributed by the Managing Member shall be deemed to have been sold at their value (as computed in accordance with Section 6.6 and the proceeds of such sale shall be deemed to have been distributed to Members for all purposes of this Agreement. The Managing Member may, in its sole discretion, distribute securities or other investments to certain Members and cash to other Members in connection with one or more withdrawals of Members’ interests in the Company. If the Company determines to distribute securities or other investments in kind, such securities or other investments may, in the sole discretion of the Managing Member, be distributed directly to the Member or, alternatively, in the sole discretion of the Managing Member, distributed or allocated into a liquidating trust or liquidating account and sold by the Company for the benefit of such Member, in which case (i) payment to such Member of that portion of such Member’s withdrawal attributable to such in-kind securities or other investments will be delayed until such time as such securities or other investments can be liquidated and (ii) the amount otherwise due to such Member will be increased or decreased to reflect the performance of such securities or other investments, and to reflect any applicable fees or expenses paid or accrued, the Management Fee, the Incentive Allocation, the Modified Incentive Allocation and the Additional Incentive Allocation, all through the date on which the liquidation of such securities or other investments is effected. The Managing Member may cause certificates evidencing any Instruments to be distributed to be imprinted with legends as to such restrictions on transfer that it may deem necessary or appropriate, including legends as to applicable federal or state securities laws or other legal or contractual restrictions, and may require any Member to which Instruments are to be distributed to agree in writing (i) that such Instruments will not be transferred except in compliance with such restrictions and (ii) to such other matters as the Managing Member may deem necessary or appropriate. In all other cases, the Managing Member will cause any such restrictions on transfer to be communicated to the relevant Members. If the Managing Member determines to distribute securities or other investments in kind, it will not cause the Company to distribute to any Member more than such Member’s approximate pro rata share of any such security or other investment, subject to the requirements of applicable law. (c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company, and the Managing Member on behalf of the Company, shall not make a distribution to any Member on account of such Member’s interest in the Company if such distribution would violate the Act or other applicable law. Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
25 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, the Company may, in the sole discretion of the Managing Member, prior to, together with or subsequent to any distribution pursuant to this Section 6.3, make distributions to one or more Members, in amounts intended to enable such Members (or any Person whose tax liability is determined by reference to the income of any such Member) to discharge all or a portion of their U.S. federal, state and local income tax liabilities arising from the allocations made (or to be made) pursuant to Section 5.5. The amount distributable pursuant to this Section 6.3(d) shall be determined by the Managing Member in its sole discretion, taking into account the maximum combined U.S. federal, state and local tax rate applicable to individuals or corporations (whichever is higher) on ordinary income and capital gain (taking into account the applicable holding period), as the case may be, and the amounts thereof so allocated to the Members, and otherwise based on such reasonable assumptions as the Managing Member determines in good faith to be appropriate (and the assumptions described in this sentence shall be applied equally to each Member regardless of its tax status). 6.4. Withholding. (a) Each Member shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify and hold harmless each Person who is or who is deemed to be the responsible withholding agent for U.S. federal, state or local or foreign income tax purposes against all claims, liabilities and expenses of whatever nature relating to such Person’s obligation to withhold and to pay over, or otherwise pay, any withholding or other taxes payable by the Company or as a result of such Member’s participation in the Company. (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Member hereby authorizes the Company to withhold and to pay over, or otherwise pay, any withholding or other taxes payable by the Company or any of its Affiliates (pursuant to the Code or any provision of U.S. federal, state, or local or foreign tax law) with respect to such Member or as a result of such Member’s participation in the Company. The Company shall provide notice to such Member of any such payment required to be made as soon as reasonably practicable. If and to the extent that the Company shall be required to withhold or pay any such withholding or other taxes, such Member shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have received a payment from the Company as of the time such withholding or other tax is required to be paid, which payment shall be deemed to be a distribution with respect to such Member’s interest in the Company. To the extent that the aggregate of such payments to a Member for any period exceeds the distributions that such Member would have received under Section 6.3 for such period but for such withholding, the Managing Member shall notify such Member as to the amount of such excess and such Member shall make a prompt payment to the Company of such amount by wire transfer. (c) If the Company makes (or will make) a distribution in kind and such distribution is subject to withholding or other taxes payable by the Company on behalf of any Member, the Managing Member shall notify such Member as to the extent (if any) of Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
26 the taxes withheld (or to be withheld) and such Member shall make a prompt payment to the Company of the amount of such taxes by wire transfer. (d) Any withholdings referred to in this Section 6.4 shall be made at the maximum applicable statutory rate under the applicable tax law unless the Managing Member shall have received an opinion of counsel or other evidence, satisfactory to the Managing Member, to the effect that a lower rate is applicable, or that no withholding is applicable. (e) In the event that the Company receives a distribution from or in respect of which tax has been withheld, the Company shall be treated as having received cash in an amount equal to the amount of such withheld tax, and each Member shall be treated as having received as a distribution of cash the portion of such amount that is attributable to such Member’s interest in the Company as equitably determined by the Managing Member. 6.5. No Priorities of Members. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no Member shall have priority over any other Member as to the return of the amount of its Capital Contributions or as to income of the Company. 6.6.

(a) Instruments and other traded instruments and contracts shall be valued in good faith at their fair market value on each Valuation Date by the Administrator in conjunction with the Investment Manager in accordance with the Offering Memorandum as may be amended or supplemented from time to time. (b) All Members acknowledge that the process of valuing Instruments or other assets, particularly Instruments or other assets for which no published market exists, is based on inherent uncertainties and the resulting values with respect to Instruments or other assets for which no ready market exists may differ from values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such Instruments or other assets and may differ from the prices at which such Instruments or other assets may be sold and that such differences may be material. ARTICLE VII WITHDRAWAL, DEATH OR INCOMPETENCY OF MEMBERS 7.1. Withdrawal, Death, etc., of Members. (a) The Managing Member may withdraw, without the approval of the Members, all or any portion of its Capital Account as of the last day of any month or at Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
27 such other times as it deems appropriate. If the Managing Member withdraws as managing member of the Company it may designate an Affiliate of the Managing Member or any successor to the business or assets of the Managing Member (the “Designee”) to be substituted as the Managing Member. The Designee shall be deemed admitted to the Company as a managing member of the Company immediately prior to the withdrawal of the Managing Member upon its execution of a counterpart signature page to this Agreement and shall become and have all of the rights, powers and duties of the Managing Member for all purposes of this Agreement, and such successor Managing Member shall continue the business of the Company without dissolution. (b) The withdrawal, death, disability, incapacity, incompetency, termination, bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution of a Member shall cause such Member to cease to be a member of the Company, but shall not dissolve the Company, as long as there is at least one remaining Member. If there are no Members (other than the Managing Member), the Company may be continued in accordance with the Act. The personal representatives (as defined in the Act) of a Member shall succeed as assignee to such Member’s interest in the Company upon the death, disability, incapacity, incompetency, termination, bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution of such Member, and shall not be admitted as a Substitute Member but shall have the right to transfer such Member’s interest in the Company in accordance with Section 10.1 or request complete withdrawal from the Company pursuant to Section 7.4. In the event of death, disability, incapacity, incompetency, termination, bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution of a Member or the giving of notice of withdrawal by a Member pursuant to Section 7.4, the Capital Account Balance of such Member shall continue at the risk of the Company’s business and shall be considered as capital of the Company in the same manner and to the same extent as other capital contributed by a Member, until the earliest of (i) the effective date of such Member’s withdrawal, (ii) the dissolution of the Company or (iii) the effective date of the transfer of such Member’s interest in the Company. 7.2. Required Withdrawals of Members (other than the Managing Member). The Managing Member may cause any Member to withdraw all or any portion of such Member’s interest in the Company at any time upon at least five (5) days’ prior written notice for any reason in the Managing Member’s sole discretion. A notice of withdrawal pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall have the same effect as a notice of withdrawal by the Member to the Company pursuant to Section 7.4, and the Member receiving such notice shall be treated for all purposes and in all respects as a Member who has given notice of withdrawal. For purposes of this Section 7.2, the effective date of a Member’s withdrawal shall be the date specified in the written notice referred to in the first sentence of this Section 7.2. If the entire interest of a Member is withdrawn, it will constitute a “resignation” of the Member within the meaning of the Act and such Member shall cease to be a member of the Company. Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
28 7.3. Limitations on Distributions or Withdrawal of Capital Account. The right of any Member or its personal representatives to receive distributions or withdraw all or any portion of the Capital Account of the Member under this Agreement is subject to the Act and other applicable law. The Managing Member may charge an amount equal to actual costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with such withdrawal. In addition to the actual costs and expenses incurred in connection with a withdrawal, the Managing Member may withhold an amount, determined in its sole discretion, for Liabilities and contingencies of the Company, or the Company’s pro rata share of any liabilities or contingencies of the Trading Entities, for which such withdrawing Member may be liable under this Agreement (the “Contingency Reserve”). After the Managing Member has determined in its sole discretion that the Liabilities or the contingencies for which the Contingency Reserve was withheld have ceased to exist, any unused portion of the Contingency Reserve shall be returned to the applicable withdrawn Member as soon as it is reasonably practicable, to the extent permitted by applicable law. A Member’s Withdrawn Capital Account Balance shall not include any amount charged to such Member’s Capital Account pursuant to this Section 7.3. The Managing Member also may distribute securities and/or other investments, in lieu of cash, to withdrawing Members (or allocate or distribute securities and/or other investments into a liquidating account or liquidating trust on behalf of such Members, as further described in Section 6.3(b)). 7.4. Withdrawal of Members (other than the Managing Member). (a) Except as provided in Sections 7.1, 7.2 and this Section 7.4, no Member shall be entitled to withdraw any part of its Capital Account Balance. (b) Each Member shall have the right to withdraw, in whole or in part, its Capital Account Balance attributable to Sub-Series A Interests from the Company as of the last day of a Fiscal Quarter (a “Sub-Series A Withdrawal Date”) upon written notice (a “Withdrawal Notice”) which must actually be received by both the Company and the Sub- Administrator at least fifty-five (55) full calendar days prior to the relevant Sub-Series A Withdrawal Date, not including such Sub-Series A Withdrawal Date or the date upon which notice is given (e.g., a Member may withdraw such amount as of December 31 by providing a Withdrawal Notice which must actually be received by the Company and the Sub-Administrator by 11:59 p.m. (New York time) on November 5th), declaring such withdrawal and, if such withdrawal is partial, stating the proportion or amount of such Member’s Capital Account Balance to be withdrawn. (c) Each Member shall have the right to withdraw an amount up to, but not exceeding, 1/12th (or ~8.33%) of its Capital Account Balance attributable to Sub-Series B Interests from the Company as of the last calendar day of each month (“Sub-Series B Withdrawal Date” and together with a Sub-Series A Withdrawal Date, a “Withdrawal Date”) upon a Withdrawal Notice which must actually be received by both the Fund and the Sub-Administrator at least six (6) months prior to the relevant Sub-Series B Withdrawal Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
29 Date, not including such Sub-Series B Withdrawal Date or the date upon which notice is given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Member submits a Withdrawal Notice in excess of 1/12th of its Capital Account Balance attributable to Sub-Series B Interests as of the relevant Sub-Series B Withdrawal Date, such withdrawal of such Member’s Capital Account Balance attributable to Sub-Series B Interests will be processed until fulfilled (or until no balance remains, if earlier) over the subsequent consecutive monthly Withdrawal Dates pursuant to the “Withdrawal Schedule” set forth below, beginning with the initial Withdrawal Date. For the avoidance of doubt, (1) the processing of any additional withdrawal requests by such Member pursuant to this paragraph will not begin for so long as any prior withdrawal by such Member pursuant to this paragraph remains in process and (2) any such additional withdrawal request will be processed as a continuation of the prior in-process withdrawal (i.e., without restarting the “Withdrawal Schedule”), beginning immediately upon fulfillment of such prior withdrawal. Withdrawal Schedule Withdrawal Date Number Percentage of Member’s Capital Account Balance attributable to Sub-Series B Interests to be withdrawn (measured as of such Withdrawal Date) 1 1/12th (or ~8.33%) 2 1/11th (or ~9.09%) 3 1/10th (or 10.00%) 4 1/9th (or ~11.11%) 5 1/8th (or 12.50%) 6 1/7th (or ~14.29%) 7 1/6th (or ~16.67%) 8 1/5th (or 20.00%) 9 1/4th (or 25.00%) 10 1/3rd (or ~33.33%) Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
30 11 1/2 (or 50.00%) 12 1/1 (or 100.00%) (d) The Managing Member may modify any terms related to withdrawals for any Member pursuant to a written agreement with such Member. The Managing Member may defer payment of withdrawal requests if raising funds to withdraw Interests would, in the Managing Member’s sole discretion, be materially harmful to the Company, any remaining Member(s), or the Trading Entities in which the Company invests. (e) Each and every Withdrawal Notice submitted by a Member shall be irrevocable once delivered and must be unconditional; any Withdrawal Notice that purports to be revocable or conditional may be ignored or treated as irrevocable and unconditional, in the sole discretion of the Managing Member. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Managing Member may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to a Member’s request to revoke any withdrawal request. (f) Subject to Section 7.3 and Section 7.5, in the event of the withdrawal by a Member pursuant to Section 7.2 or this Section 7.4. the Company shall distribute at least 95% of the Withdrawal Price with respect to the Interest being withdrawn within twenty- five (25) calendar days following the applicable Sub-Series A Withdrawal Date or Sub- Series B Withdrawal Date, as the case may be. Promptly after the final Net Asset Value has been determined in respect of the withdrawn Interests (which in the Managing Member’s discretion may be after the Company’s independent public accountants have completed the Company’s annual audit), the Company will pay to such Member the balance, if any, of the Withdrawal Price, or such Member will be obligated to repay the Company the excess, if any, of the amount previously paid to the Member over the Withdrawal Price, in each case subject to any subsequent audit adjustments and to the extent permitted by applicable law. Upon the making of such payment to the withdrawing Member, to the extent of the proportion of its interest so withdrawn, all rights, claims and demands of every kind and character of such Person in and to the Company’s property shall cease and terminate. If the entire Capital Account Balance of a Member is withdrawn, it will constitute a “resignation” of the Member within the meaning of the Act and such Member shall cease to be a Member of the Company. 7.5. Suspension of Determination of Net Asset Value; Restrictions on Withdrawal by Members. The determination of Net Asset Value, the payment of withdrawal proceeds and/or the right of any Member to withdraw its Capital Account Balance (whether in whole or in part) under Section 7.4 may be suspended or restricted (whether in whole or in part) by the Managing Member in its sole discretion for any of the following reasons: Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
31 (a) when any such withdrawal or payment of withdrawal proceeds would result in a violation by the Company, any Trading Entity, the Investment Manager or the Managing Member or any Managing Member Related Person of the securities laws of the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction or the rules of any national securities exchange, self-regulatory organization or regulatory agency applicable to the Company, the Investment Manager or the Managing Member or any Managing Member Related Person; (b) any exchange or quotation system on which a significant portion of the assets of the Company or any Trading Entity is regularly traded or quoted is closed (otherwise than for weekends or holidays) or trading thereon is generally suspended or limited (by reason of movements in price exceeding limits permitted by such exchange or quotation system or otherwise); (c) any breakdown in the means of communication normally employed in determining the price or value of any of the investments of the Company or any Trading Entity has occurred and is continuing, or the prices or values of any investments of the Company or any Trading Entity cannot reasonably be promptly and accurately ascertained for any reason; (d) trading in any Instrument held by the Company or any Trading Entity on any exchange or quotation system is suspended or limited and the Managing Member or the Investment Manager, as applicable, determines that such suspension or limitation is material to the Company or such Trading Entity; (e) any event has occurred and is continuing which may cause the dissolution of the Company; (f) the Managing Member, has determined that any such withdrawal would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to meet any margin call or comply with any covenant in any loan or credit agreement; or (g) the Managing Member has otherwise determined in its sole discretion with respect to the Company or the Interest of the withdrawing or remaining Members, respectively, that the withdrawal by any Member of its Interests (whether in whole or in part) would have a material adverse effect on the Company or the Interest of the withdrawing or remaining Members, including, without limitation, the risk of potential classification of the Company as a “publicly-traded partnership” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In the event that the Managing Member suspends or restricts any withdrawals pursuant to this Section 7.5, it will promptly notify each Member who has delivered a Withdrawal Notice pursuant to Section 7.4 and to whom payment in full of the amount being withdrawn Docusign Envelope ID: F2DBBD40-D0D5-8F31-81C2-04E47C6CFA7D
32 has not yet been remitted of any suspension of or restriction on withdrawal pursuant to this Section 7.5. Notwithstanding the provisions in Section 7.4, in the event the Managing Member suspends or restricts withdrawals pursuant to this Section 7.5, the Managing Member may in its sole discretion allow any such Member to rescind its Withdrawal Notice to the extent of any portion thereof for which withdrawal proceeds have not yet been remitted. The Managing Member may in its discretion complete any withdrawal as of a date after the cause of any such suspension or restriction has ceased to exist to be specified by the Managing Member as the effective date of withdrawal for all purposes of this Article VII. ARTICLE VIII DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION OF THE COMPANY 8.1. Dissolution. The Company shall dissolve upon the earliest of (a) a determination made by the Managing Member at any time to dissolve and wind up the Company for any reason, (b) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 18- 802 of the Act, (c) at any time that there are no Members, unless the Company is continued pursuant to the Act, and (d) the occurrence of any event that results in the Managing Member ceasing to be a managing member of the Company under the Act, provided that the Company shall not be dissolved and required to be wound up in connection with any of the events specified in this clause (d) if (i) at the time of the occurrence of such event there is at least one remaining manager of the Company who is hereby authorized to and does carry on the business of the Company, or (ii) within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such event, a Majority in Interest agree in writing or vote to continue the business of the Company and to the appointment, effective as of the date of such event, if required, of one or more additional managers of the Company. 8.2.

More broadly, no Investment Manager policy or agreement prohibits Members from communicating with government agencies regarding the Investment Manager or its Affiliates, limits any rights that a Member may have as a whistleblower, or requires a Member to give notice to the Investment Manager or its Affiliates about such communications. For the avoidance of doubt, no Person shall have any obligation whatsoever, or be expected to (i) obtain the prior authorization of the Investment Manager or its Affiliates to engage in conduct protected by the above or (ii) notify the Investment Manager or its Affiliates if they have engaged in such conduct. (c) A Member may provide information to government agencies without risk of liability to the Investment Manager or its Affiliates and the Investment Manager does not limit a Member’s right to receive an award for information provided to government agencies. 11.17. Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Requirements. The Managing Member shall be authorized, without the consent of any Person, including any other Member, to take such action as it determines to be necessary or advisable to comply, or to cause the Company to comply, with any anti-money laundering or anti-terrorist laws, rules, regulations, directives or special measures.
