Subject: RE: FW: 2 things If I can get them down to: • Permitted to withdraw'/. of our funds per quarter starting after 3 months • no early withdrawal fees • no withdrawal limits after 12 months I will own the performance as part of my numbers. Having this type of fund in the portfolio will be a good balance to the rest of our credit exposure and we have plenty of liquidity as preferreds get called.

I would like to allocate $5MM to a Credit hedge fund that I know well. I believe we need to have a manager who can earn 6-8% net if current credit conditions persist but then is able to play the short side and hopefully deliver 10-15% if the credit cycle turns. I negotiated favorable terms of 1.5%/15%. Lock up 1yr. The founder is a former John Paulson PM who ran their credit book for 10 years leading into the Financial Crisis. I would fund it with some preferreds that are about to be called. 2. A portfolio manager that I have known for many years is looking to start a macro hedge fund. How do you feel about seeding him in exchange for an ownership stake in the GP and Management Company? My guess is we would need a - $20MM-$25MM commitment. I have not discussed this with him but I do think Macro hedge funds are finally going to be able to make some money again as QE comes to an end.
