Item 4: Advisory business Services

We serve as the investment adviser, with discretionary trading authority, to private, pooled investment vehicles, the securities of which are offered through a private placement memorandum to accredited investors, as defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and qualified purchasers, as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. We do not tailor our advisory services to the individual needs of any particular investor. Dark Forest manages the following private, pooled investment vehicles: • • •

The “Limited Partners” of the Onshore Fund and the “Shareholders” of the Offshore Fund are hereafter collectively referred to as the “Investors” where appropriate.

Item 5: Fees and compensation Fees

The fees applicable to each of the Funds are set forth in detail in the corresponding Offering Documents. A brief summary of such fees is provided below. Management Fee Dark Forest is paid an investment management fee (“Management Fee”) per annum. The Management Fee ranges from 1.00% to 2.00%. The Investment Manager, in its sole discretion, may waive or modify the Management Fee or Incentive Fee for any Investor. Other Types of Fees or Expenses Dark Forest is authorized to incur and pay in the name and on behalf of the Funds all expenses which they deem necessary or advisable.

-6-

expenses associated with the business, affairs and/or operations of the Funds, including, without limitation, any other cost that may otherwise be paid by the Funds with soft dollars pursuant to Section 28(e) of the Exchange Act. In general, each Limited Partner will bear its proportionate share of the Partnership Expenses on a pro rata basis with respect to the size of its Capital Account(s). The General Partner may, however, allocate expenses on another basis, including by allocating certain expenses to certain (but not all) Limited Partners or Capital Accounts, if the General Partner determines that such an allocation is more equitable. In addition, any Partnership Expenses attributable solely to investments in “new issues” will be allocated solely to those Partners who participate in the relevant investments with respect to their relative interest in such investments. Further, the General Partner will have the right to charge any Partner, and not treat as a Partnership Expense, any expense attributable to a single Partner or a group of Partners, including, without limitation, additional accounting expenses incurred in providing a calculation of “unrelated business taxable income” (“UBTI”), if any, to particular Partners. From time to time, the General Partner, the Investment Manager and/or their affiliates may elect to bear certain expenses on behalf of the Funds that would otherwise be Partnership Expenses. The General Partner, the Investment Manager and/or their affiliates will not have any obligation to bear such expenses and may elect at any time (in whole or in part) to no longer bear such expenses on behalf of the Funds. To the extent that Partnership Expenses are attributable to multiple Dark Forest Clients (defined below), such amounts will be allocated in accordance with the Investment Manager’s expense allocation policy, pursuant to which the Investment Manager will generally allocate such expenses pro rata based upon the respective net asset values of such applicable Dark Forest Clients. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Investment Manager may make non-pro rata allocations as permitted by its expense allocation policy. The Investment Manager, the Fund General Partner and/or the Principal, and/or the CIO may advance funds on behalf of the Funds, and the Investment Manager, the General Partner and the Principal and the CIO, as the case may be, will be reimbursed by the Funds for such advanced amounts. In general, each Investor will bear its proportionate share of the Partnership Expenses on a pro rata basis, calculated based on relative gross asset value as of the beginning of each month. The Fund General Partner may, however, allocate expenses on another basis, including by allocating certain expenses to certain (but not all) Investors or capital accounts, if the Fund General Partner determines that such an allocation is more equitable.

Item 8: Methods of analysis, investment strategies and risk of loss Investment strategies and risks

The descriptions set forth in this Brochure of specific advisory services that we offer to Clients, and investment strategies pursued and investments made by us on behalf of our Clients, should not be understood to limit in any way our investment activities. We may offer any advisory services, engage in any investment strategy and make any investment, including any not described in this Brochure, that we consider appropriate, subject to each Client’s investment objectives and guidelines as set forth in the Offering Documents. The investment strategies we pursue are speculative and entail substantial risks. Clients should be prepared to bear a substantial loss of capital. There can be no assurance that the investment objectives of any Client will be achieved. Investment Objective and Strategy The investment objective of the Funds, through the Master Fund, is to generate attractive, risk-adjusted returns by employing a global, market-neutral, long-short equity strategy that seeks to apply a systematic investment process to combine long/short equity signals from a wide range of specialized structural flows and macro information in a self-consistent, nonlinear manner. The Investment Manager seeks to exploit persistent market inefficiencies created by diverse, price-insensitive market participants across both major developed and emerging markets, and seeks to capture opportunities created by the slow absorption of macro information into individual stocks. The Investment Manager also seeks to employ more traditional, data-driven, statistical equity signals, where they are diversifying and there is a competitive advantage derived from the research process. Through the use of its distinctive, proprietary machine learning technology, which is designed to natively incorporate transaction costs, diversification and risk constraints, the Investment Manager seeks to combine disparate sources into a single comprehensive trading system in order to produce persistent, high-quality returns. The investment strategies described herein are those that the Investment Manager expects to employ on behalf of the Master Fund. However, except as expressly set forth herein, there are no limitations on the investment strategies that the Master Fund may employ in order to opportunistically respond to, or to take advantage of, changing market conditions and new investment opportunities. Further, the Investment Manager may invest opportunistically in securities or transactions that vary from the core strategy of the Master Fund.

-8-

There can be no assurance that the Partnership’s or the Master Fund’s investment objective will be achieved, and investment results may vary substantially on a monthly, quarterly and annual basis. Risk of Loss Factors The following risk factors do not purport to be a complete list or explanation of the risks involved in an investment in the clients advised by us. These risk factors include only those risks we believe to be material, significant or unusual and relate to particular significant investment strategies or methods of analysis employed by us. An investment involves significant risks, and is suitable only for those persons who can bear the economic risk of the loss of their entire investment, who have limited need for liquidity in their investment, and who have met the conditions set forth in the Offering Documents. There can be no assurances that we will achieve our investment objectives. An investment carries with it the inherent risks associated with investments in the Financial Instruments listed in the Offering Documents, including, without limitation, the risks described below. Each prospective investor should carefully review the Offering Documents and the documents referred to herein before deciding to invest with Dark Forest. Please refer to additional risk factors in the Funds’ Offering Documents. Defined terms below have the same meaning as those in the Fund Offering Documents. Equity Securities. The Master Fund may invest in equity and equity-related securities, including, without limitation, equity investments acquired in connection with restructured debt securities or instruments, or in connection with reorganizations and/or restructurings of debt securities, equity securities or other obligations and assets of undervalued, operationally challenged and/or financially troubled companies or institutions. A risk of investing in the Partnership is that equity securities held by the Master Fund may decline in value. Equity securities fluctuate in value in response to many factors, including the activities and financial condition of individual companies, the business market in which individual companies compete, industry market conditions, interest rates and general economic environments. In addition, equity securities that the Investment Manager believes are undervalued or incorrectly valued may not ultimately be valued by the markets in the manner that the Investment Manager anticipates. Debt Securities. Although the Master Fund will trade primarily in equities, the Master Fund also may invest in debt or other fixed income securities, including non-investment grade securities, sovereign debt and/or similar obligations and instruments. Particularly with respect to non-investment grade securities, there is a risk that the issuer will default on its payments obligations. The market values of debt instruments may be more volatile than the values of other investments and, during periods of economic uncertainty and change, the market price of these investments may decrease significantly. Debt instruments may also be less liquid than equities, particularly during periods of market dislocation. The lack of a liquid secondary market may have an adverse effect on the market price and the Master Fund’s ability to sell particular securities. Hedging. The Master Fund may engage in certain hedging transactions, including derivatives, options and swaps. Hedges can be more difficult to implement than many other types of transactions, and the possibilities for errors may be greater than for other transactions. Additionally, there is no guarantee that these hedging transactions will prevent losses to the Partnership and/or the Master Fund. The success of the Master Fund’s hedging strategy will be subject to the Investment Manager’s ability to correctly assess the degree of

-9-

correlation between the performance of the instruments used in the hedging strategy and the performance of the investments in the portfolio being hedged. Since the characteristics of many securities change as markets change or time passes, the success of the Master fund’ hedging strategy will also be subject to the Investment Manager’s ability to continually recalculate, readjust and execute hedges in an efficient and timely manner. In addition, hedging transactions may result in poorer overall performance for the Partnership and the Master fund than if no such hedging transactions were executed. Moreover, the Investment Manager may determine not to hedge against, or may not anticipate, certain risks. Finally, the Master fund may be exposed to certain risks that cannot be hedged, such as credit risk (relating both to particular investments and counterparties). Derivatives. The Master fund may invest in derivative financial instruments. In addition, the Master fund may, from time to time, utilize both exchange-traded and overthe-counter derivatives, including swaps, futures, options and contracts for differences, either to express an investment view or for hedging purposes. Such derivative instruments are highly volatile, involve certain special risks and expose investors to a high risk of loss. The low initial margin deposits normally required to establish a position in such instruments permit a high degree of leverage. As a result, a relatively small movement in the price of a contract may result in a gain or a loss which is high in proportion to the amount of funds actually placed as initial margin and may result in unquantifiable further losses exceeding any margin deposited. Further, when used for hedging purposes, there may be an imperfect correlation between these instruments and the investments or market sectors being hedged. In addition, regulatory restraints, such as requirements related to, among others, recordkeeping, reporting, portfolio reconciliation, central clearing, minimum margin for uncleared over-the-counter instruments and mandatory trading on electronic facilities, and other transaction-level obligations may restrict the instruments that the Master fund may trade and may cause the Master fund to forego using certain trading counterparties, which may negatively impact the Master fund. Parties that act as dealers in swaps are also subject to extensive business conduct standards, additional “know your counterparty” obligations, documentation standards and capital requirements. All of these requirements add costs to the legal, operational and compliance obligations of the Investment Manager and the Master fund, and increase the amount of time that the Investment Manager spends on noninvestment-related activities. Requirements such as these also raise the costs of entering into derivative transactions, and these increased costs will likely be passed on to the Master fund. Options. The Master fund may engage in the trading of options when appropriate. Specific market movements of the securities underlying an option cannot accurately be predicted. The purchaser of an option is subject to the risk of losing the entire purchase price of the option. The writer of an option is subject to the risk of loss resulting from the difference between the premium received for the option and the price of the security underlying the option which the writer must purchase or deliver upon exercise of the option. Call and Put Options. The Master fund may incur risks associated with the sale and purchase of call options and put options. Under a conventional cash-settled option, the purchaser of the option pays a premium in exchange for the right to receive upon exercise of the option (i) in the case of a call option, the excess, if any, of the reference price or value of the underlier (as determined pursuant to the terms of the option) above the option’s strike price, or (ii) in the case of a put option, the excess, if any, of the option’s strike price above the reference price or value of the underlier (as so determined). Under a conventional physically-settled option structure, the purchaser of a call option has the right to purchase a

Item 7: Types of clients

Our clients are the Funds, as described in Item 4 above, and the Funds are generally open to, among others, institutions, pension plans, endowments, high net-worth individuals, financially sophisticated individuals, and other sophisticated investors. Currently, the minimum investment in the Funds is at least $1,000,000. Such minimum investment may be waived on a case-by-case basis subject to our discretion.

Item 6: Performance-based fees and side-by-side management Conflicts of interest

We and our affiliates are entitled to a performance-based compensation between 20% and 30% of gross performance. As a result, we and our affiliates do not currently face certain conflicts of interest that may arise when an investment adviser accepts performance-based fees from some clients, but not from other clients.

-7-

Performance-based allocation arrangements may create an incentive for us to recommend investments which may be riskier or more speculative than those which we would recommend under a different arrangement. Dark Forest currently has an agreement with a data vendor that receives variable compensation dependent on performance.

Item 10: Other financial industry activities and affiliations Conflicts of interest

Neither we nor our management persons are registered as broker-dealers, and neither of us has any application pending to register with the SEC as a broker-dealer or registered representative of a broker-dealer, respectively.

Item 11: Code of ethics, participation or interest in client transactions and personal trading Conflicts of interest

Code of Ethics Dark Forest has adopted a “Code of Ethics” that establishes the high standard of conduct that we expect of our employees and procedures regarding our employees’ personal trading of securities. Our employees are required to certify their adherence to the terms set forth in the Code of Ethics upon commencement of employment and annually thereafter. Employees also are required to provide quarterly certifications of compliance with certain Code of Ethics provisions.

-21-

The foundation of our Code of Ethics is based upon the following underlying fiduciary principles: • • • •

Employees must at all times place the interests of the Funds and Investors first; Employees must ensure that all personal securities transactions are conducted consistent with the Code of Ethics’ Employee Personal Investment Policy (described below); and Employees should not take inappropriate advantage of their position at the Firm. Independence in the investment decision-making process must be maintained at all times.

The Code of Ethics places restrictions on personal trades by employees and mandates that employees disclose their personal securities holdings and transactions to the Investment Adviser on a periodic basis. The Code of Ethics permits personal accounts, but prohibits trading in single name equity securities, other than legacy positions, which are subject to preapproval, and requires pre-approval and/or minimum holding periods for certain types of transactions. Employees are not required, however, to obtain pre-clearance for personal investments in certain other asset classes and goods, including certain investments in residential real estate and mutual funds, whether or not our clients have invested in the same or similar assets. We have the ability to permit certain employees to maintain various personal investments that were acquired prior to their association with the Investment Adviser, including investments in private issuers that may subsequently conduct public offerings of securities, and may grant similar permissions in the future and/or permit personnel to sell such previously acquired securities. Employees are prohibited from participating in Initial Public Offerings (“IPOs”). Employees are also prohibited from personally, or on behalf of a Client, purchasing or selling securities that appear on the Firm’s Restricted List. Employees must obtain pre-approval from the CCO before: (i) engaging in any outside business activities; or (ii) making any private investments. We will provide a copy of our Code of Ethics to our Investors, or any prospective investor, upon request, to be viewed on the premises.

Item 12: Brokerage practices Conflicts of interest

Dark Forest is authorized to determine the broker-dealer to be used for executing securities transactions for the Funds. In selecting broker-dealers to execute transactions, we do not need to solicit competitive bids and do not have an obligation to solely seek the lowest available commission cost. Generally, it is not our practice to negotiate “execution only” commission rates; therefore, the Funds may be deemed to be paying for research, brokerage or other services provided by the broker which are included in the commission rate. We shall also have the authority to select and appoint custodians of the assets of the Funds. The Firm’s authority is limited by its own internal policies and procedures and each Fund’s investment guidelines.

-22-

Best Execution In selecting an appropriate broker-dealer to effect a Client trade, we seek to obtain “Best Execution,” meaning generally the execution of a securities transaction for a Client in such a manner that a Client’s total costs or proceeds in the transaction are most favorable under the circumstances. Accordingly, in seeking Best Execution, we will take into consideration the price of a security offered by the broker-dealer, as well as a broker-dealer’s full range and quality of their services including, among other things, their facilities, reliability and financial responsibility, execution capability, commission rates, responsiveness to us, brokerage and research services provided to us (for example, research ideas, analysis, and investment strategies), special execution and block positioning capabilities, clearance, and settlement and custodial services. Soft Dollars The Firm currently does not use “Soft Dollars”. However, if the Firm chooses to use Soft Dollars in the future, in such cases, Soft Dollar credits, generated by the Fund’s trading activities, would be used to purchase brokerage and research services or products that would otherwise have been a Fund expense. We intend to keep any such arrangements within the parameters of the safe harbor of Section 28(e) of the Exchange Act. Neither Dark Forest nor any related person receives client referrals from any broker-dealer or third party. However, subject to best execution, we may consider, among other things, capital introduction and marketing assistance with respect to Investors in the Funds in selecting or recommending broker-dealers for the Funds. The provision by a broker of research and other services and property to us creates an incentive for us to select such broker since we would not have to pay for such research and other services and property as opposed to solely seeking the most favorable execution for a Client. Any research, services or property provided by a broker may benefit any Client and such benefits may not be proportionate to commission dollars related to the provision of such research, services or property.

Item 14: Client referrals and other compensation Conflicts of interest

We do not receive economic benefits from non-clients for providing investment advice and other advisory services. Neither we nor any of our related persons, directly or indirectly, compensate any person who is not a supervised person for client referrals.

Item 9: Disciplinary information

To the best of our knowledge, there are no legal or disciplinary events that are material to an Investor's or prospective investor's evaluation of our advisory business or the integrity of our management.

Item 13: Review of accounts

Our Portfolio Manager and investment professionals continuously monitor and analyze the transactions, positions, and investment levels of the Fund to ensure that they conform with the investment objectives and guidelines that are stated in the Fund’s Offering Documents. In these reviews, the Firm pays particular attention to any changes in the investment’s fundamentals, overall risk management and changes in the markets that may affect price levels. Account Reporting We perform various periodic reviews of each Client’s portfolio. Such reviews are conducted by our officers. We will distribute an audited financial report with respect to the previous fiscal year to all Investors within 120 days of fiscal year end. We may also distribute unaudited net asset value

-23-

statements on at least a quarterly basis, quarter-end performance reports, and a quarterly investor letter to all Investors.

Item 15: Custody

We are deemed to have custody of Client funds and securities because we have the authority to obtain Client funds or securities, for example, by deducting advisory fees from a Client's account or otherwise withdrawing funds from a Client's account. Account statements related to the Clients are sent by qualified custodians to Dark Forest. We comply with Rule 206(4)-2 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”) (i.e., the ”custody rule”) by meeting the conditions of the pooled vehicle annual audit approach. Upon completion of the relevant Fund’s annual audit by an independent auditor that is registered with, and subject to inspection by, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), we will distribute the Fund’s audited financials to Investors within 120 days of such Fund’s fiscal year end.

Item 16: Investment discretion

We have full discretionary investment authority with respect to the Funds, including the authority to make decisions with respect to which securities to be bought and sold, as well as the amount and price of those securities. Our investment discretion and authority is subject to the limitations set forth in the Client’s investment management agreement or the particular Fund’s Offering Documents, as applicable.

Item 17: Voting client securities

In compliance with Rule 206(4)-6 of the Advisers Act (i.e., the “proxy voting rule”), we have adopted proxy voting policies and procedures. The general policy is to not vote any proxy proposals, amendments, consents or resolutions (collectively, “Proxies”). Clients may obtain a copy of our Proxy voting policies and our Proxy voting record upon request. Form N-PX The SEC requires “institutional investment managers” to report “say-on-pay” votes on amended Form N-PX when voting on the approval of executive compensation, the frequency of such executive compensation, and “golden parachute” compensation in connection with a merger or acquisition. If Dark Forest files Form 13F during the course of a calendar year, it will have an obligation to annually report say-on-pay voting decisions through amended SEC Form N-PX.

Item 18: Financial information

-24-

We are not required to include a balance sheet for our most recent fiscal year, are not aware of any financial condition reasonably likely to impair our ability to meet contractual commitments to Clients, and have not been the subject of a bankruptcy petition at any time during the past ten years.
