AGREEMENT BETWEEN USER AND ALPINE GROVE PARTNERS LLP

The Alpine Grove Partners LLP Web Site (the “Web Site”) is comprised of various Web pages operated by Alpine Grove Partners LLP (“Alpine”).

We provide you access to the Web Site subject to the following terms and conditions (“Terms”), which may be updated by us from time to time without notice to you. By browsing the public areas or by accessing and using the Web Site, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be legally bound by these Terms and the terms and conditions of our Statement of Privacy, which is hereby incorporated by reference (collectively, this “Agreement”). If you do not agree to any of these terms, then please do not use the Web Site.

NO OFFERS OR RELIANCE; NO INVESTMENT OR FINANCIAL ADVICE

Alpine Grove Partners is a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. Such registration does not imply that the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has endorsed or approved the qualifications of Alpine Grove Partners and its respective representatives to provide the advisory and management services described in the Web Site. Furthermore, Alpine Grove Partners may transact business only in those states in which it is registered, or qualifies for an exemption or exclusion from registration requirements. Consequently, this Web Site may contain information about investment products and services that are not intended for or available to certain investors in certain jurisdictions. For information pertaining to the registration status of Alpine Grove Partners, please contact the SEC or the state securities regulators for those states in which Alpine Grove Partners maintains a notice filing. A copy of Alpine’s current written disclosure statement discussing Alpine’s business operations, services, and fees is available from Alpine Grove Partners upon written request.

Users of the Web Site should note that no information on the Web Site should be construed as investment or financial advice. The Web Site is limited to the dissemination of general information pertaining to Alpine’s advisory services, together with access to additional investment-related information, publications, and links. Accordingly, the publication of the Web Site on the Internet should not be construed by any consumer and/or prospective client/investor as Alpine’s solicitation to effect, or attempt to effect, transactions in securities, or the rendering of personalized investment advice for compensation, over the Internet. Any subsequent, direct communication by Alpine Grove Partners with a prospective client/investor shall be conducted by a representative that is either registered or qualifies for an exemption or exclusion from registration in the state or other jurisdiction where the prospective client/investor resides.

Alpine Grove Partners is not utilizing the Web Site to provide investment or other advice, and no information or material available through the Web Site is to be relied upon for the purpose of making or communicating investment or other decisions. Alpine Grove Partners is neither an attorney nor an accountant, and no portion of the Web Site content should be interpreted as legal, accounting, or tax advice. To the extent that past performance is available through the Web Site, past performance is not indicative of future results, and no representation is being made that any investment will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those achieved in the past, or that significant losses will be avoided.

No material available through the Web Site shall be used or considered as an offer to sell or a solicitation of any offer to buy the securities or services of any of our affiliated entities. Offers can only be made where lawful under, and in compliance with, applicable law.

Please remember that different types of investments involve varying degrees of risk, and there can be no assurance that the future performance of any specific investment or investment strategy (including those undertaken or recommended by Alpine Grove Partners), will be profitable or equal any historical performance level(s).

Investments discussed on the Web Site, if any, may not be suitable for all investors. Investors should make their own investment decisions based upon their own financial objectives and financial resources, and should obtain independent investment and tax advice before deciding to invest. Case studies set forth on the Web Site have been selected to exemplify Alpine’s investments in different asset classes and/or geographic regions. These investments do not represent all of the investments selected by Alpine Grove Partners with respect to a particular asset class, geographic region, or a particular account. Case studies may be ongoing investments of certain accounts managed by Alpine Grove Partners, and are not intended to be, and should not be construed as, investment advice or a recommendation to purchase or sell any particular security. Case studies or other investments discussed on the Web Site ultimately may generate positive returns, and other investments made in these asset classes or geographic regions, but not discussed on the Web Site, may generate negative returns, or vice versa. It should not be assumed that investments made for any particular account will match the performance or character of the investments discussed on the Web Site, or that the returns of any accounts managed by Alpine Grove Partners will equal the performance of the investments discussed on the Web Site. Investors may experience materially different results. The case studies displayed on the Web Site were chosen to show the variation in asset classes, geographies, and time frames in which Alpine Grove Partners has invested. Case studies listed on this Web Site are not considered a complete list of all investments historically made by Alpine Grove Partners; a full list is available upon request.

NO GUARANTEED RESULTS

The recommendations developed by Alpine Grove Partners in connection with its services are based upon the professional judgment of Alpine Grove Partners, and Alpine Grove Partners cannot and does not guarantee the results of any recommendations.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The Web Site contains certain “forward-looking statements,” which may be identified by the use of such words as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “should,” “planned,” “estimated,” “potential,” and other similar terms. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, estimates with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, and the success or lack of success of Alpine’s investment process or strategy. All are subject to various factors, including, but not limited to, general and local economic conditions, changing levels of competition within certain industries and markets, changes in interest rates, changes in legislation or regulation, and other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting Alpine’s operations that could cause actual results to differ materially from projected results.

POSITIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Certain portions of the Web Site may contain a discussion of, and/or provide access to, Alpine’s (and those of other investment and non-investment professionals) positions and/or recommendations as of a specific prior date. Due to various factors, including changing market conditions, such discussion may no longer be reflective of current position(s) and/or recommendation(s). Moreover, no client/investor or prospective client/investor should assume that any such discussion serves as the receipt of, or a substitute for, personalized advice from Alpine Grove Partners or from any other investment professional.

RANKINGS AND RATING SERVICES

Rankings and/or recognition by unaffiliated rating services and/or publications should not be construed by a client/investor or prospective client/investor as a guarantee that he/she will experience a certain level of results if Alpine Grove Partners is engaged, or continues to be engaged, to provide investment advisory services, nor should they be construed as current or past endorsements of Alpine Grove Partners by any of its clients/investors. Rankings published by magazines and others generally base their selections exclusively on information prepared and/or submitted by the recognized adviser. Moreover, with regard to any performance information contained on the Web Site, directly or indirectly, users should note that past results are not indicative of future results.
