FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
This Confidential Private Placement Memorandum (as amended, restated or otherwise modified
from time to time (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any appendices attached hereto), the
"Memorandum") is furnished on a confidential basis to a limited number of prospective investors
(each, when admitted as a member, an "Investor") in AlphaKeys Millennium Fund, L.L.C. (f/k/a
UBS Millennium Fund, L.L.C.) (the "AlphaKeys Fund") who are both qualified purchasers and
accredited investors (unless otherwise permitted by law) for the purpose of providing certain
information about a potential investment in Class B limited liability company interests (the
"Class B Interests") in the AlphaKeys Fund. The Class B Interests have not been recommended,
approved or disapproved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") or by the
securities regulatory authority of any state or of any other jurisdiction, nor has the SEC or any
such securities regulatory authority passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this Memorandum.
My representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
The Class B Interests have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "1933 Act"), the securities laws of any other state or the securities laws of any other
jurisdiction, nor is such registration contemplated. The Class B Interests will be offered and sold
in the United States under the exemption provided by Section 4(aX2) of the 1933 Act and
Regulation D promulgated thereunder and other exemptions of similar import in the laws of the
states and jurisdictions where the offering will be made. The AlphaKeys Fund will not be
registered as an investment company under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the "1940 Act"). There is no public market for the Class B Interests and no such
market is expected to develop in the future. The Class B Interests are subject to restrictions on
transferability and resale and may not be sold or transferred except as permitted under the limited
liability company agreement of the AlphaKeys Fund (as amended, restated or otherwise
modified from time to time, the "AlphaKeys Fund Agreement", annexed hereto as Appendix B)
and unless they are registered under the 1933 Act, or pursuant to an exemption from such
registration thereunder and under any other applicable securities law registration requirements
that may be available at such time.
Required 1933 Act Disclosure. Pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D under the 1933 Act (the
"Rule"), the AlphaKeys Fund is required, among other things, to disclose certain disciplinary
events, in respect of various entities and/or individuals, that occurred prior to the Rule's effective
date of September 23, 2013, and such disclosure is annexed hereto as Appendix C.
Potential Investors should pay particular attention to the information under the "CERTAIN RISK
FACTORS" and "POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST' sections of this Memorandum.
Investment in the AlphaKeys Fund is suitable only for sophisticated investors and requires the
financial ability and willingness to accept the high risks and lack of liquidity inherent in an
investment in the AlphaKeys Fund. Investors in the AlphaKeys Fund must be prepared to bear
such risks for an extended period of time. No assurance can be given that the AlphaKeys Fund's
or the Underlying Fund's (defined below) investment objective will be achieved or that Investors
will receive a return of their capital.
My losses by the AlphaKeys Fund will be borne solely by the Investors and not by the
Administrator or its affiliates; therefore, the Administrator's and its affiliates' or subsidiaries'
losses in the AlphaKeys Fund will be limited to losses attributable to the Class B Interests in the
AlphaKeys Fund held by the Administrator and its affiliates or subsidiaries in their capacity as
investors in the AlphaKeys Fund.

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
In making an investment decision, prospective Investors must rely on their own examination of
the AlphaKeys Fund and the terms of the offering of Class B Interests, including the merits and
risks involved. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense. The U.S. Commodity
Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC") has not reviewed or approved this offering or this
Memorandum. Prospective Investors should not construe the contents of this Memorandum as
legal, tax, investment or accounting advice and each prospective Investor is urged to consult with
its own advisers with respect to legal, tax, regulatory, financial and accounting consequences of
its investment in the AlphaKeys Fund.
Each prospective Investor shall agree that it has not relied on the AlphaKeys Fund, UBS Fund
Advisor, L.L.C. (the "Administrator") in its capacity as the Administrator and the manager of the
AlphaKeys Fund, or any of the Administrator's affiliates or employees for tax advice in
connection with its investment.
As used in this Memorandum, the following capitalized terms have the following meanings.
"Underlying Fund" refers to Millennium USA LP and any intermediate investment vehicles
controlled by the Underlying Fund Manager or its affiliates and into which the Underlying Fund
directly or indirectly invests all or a portion of its assets (e.g., through a master-feeder structure).
"Underlying Fund Manager' refers, individually or collectively, as the context may require, to
Millennium Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, the general partner of the
Underlying Fund. "Underlying Fund Memorandum" refers collectively to the Confidential
Memorandum of Millennium USA LP and the Confidential Memorandum of Millennium
Partners, L.P., and any supplements thereto, attached hereto as Appendix A. "Underlying Fund
Documents" refers to the offering and organizational documents of Millennium USA LP, and
certain other documents referred to herein related to the Underlying Fund.
This Memorandum contains information concerning the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement and the
Underlying Fund Documents. However, the information set forth in this Memorandum does not
purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the
AlphaKeys Fund Agreement and the Underlying Fund Documents, copies of which are attached
as appendices to this Memorandum and/or will be provided to any prospective Investor upon
request, as applicable, and which should be reviewed for complete information, including
information concerning the rights, privileges and obligations of Investors in the AlphaKeys
Fund. In the event that the descriptions or terms in this Memorandum are inconsistent with or
contrary to the descriptions in or terms of the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement and the Underlying
Fund Documents, the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement (or with respect to any terms applicable to the
Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund Documents) shall control. The Underlying Fund
Documents were not prepared by or independently verified by the AlphaKeys Fund, the
Administrator or any of their respective affiliates, and none of the foregoing makes any
representation or warranty with respect to, or shall be responsible for, the accuracy or
completeness of such information.
The Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund Manager and their respective partners, officers,
directors, employees, members and affiliates take no responsibility for the contents of this
Memorandum, make no representations as to the accuracy or completeness hereof and expressly
disclaim any liability whatsoever for any loss arising from or in reliance upon any part of this

The Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund Manager and their respective partners, officers,
directors, employees, members and affiliates have not endorsed and make no recommendation
with respect to the securities offered hereby.
The Underlying Fund and the Underlying Fund Manager have no responsibility to update any of
the information provided in this Memorandum. The AlphaKeys Fund will be an investor of the
Underlying Fund entitled to the rights of an investor under applicable law and the applicable
Underlying Fund Documents. Investors in the AlphaKeys Fund, however, do not thereby
become, and will not be, investors of the Underlying Fund and will not have rights as investors
of the Underlying Fund. Rather, Investors in the AlphaKeys Fund will have rights as members
in the AlphaKeys Fund. As such, the Investors in the AlphaKeys Fund will have no standing or
recourse against any of the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund Manager, their respective
affiliates or any of their respective general partners, investment advisers, officers, directors,
employees, partners or members.
Statements contained in this Memorandum and the Underlying Fund Memorandum (including
those relating to current and future market conditions and trends in respect thereof) that are not
historical facts are based on current expectations, estimates, projections, opinions and/or beliefs
of the Administrator or the Underlying Fund Manager. Certain information contained in this

"will," "should," "expect," "anticipate," "project," "estimate," "intend," "continue," "target," or
"believe" or the negatives thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. Due to
various risks and uncertainties, including those set forth in CERTAIN RISK FACTORS and in
the Underlying Fund Memorandum, the amount subscribed for by the AlphaKeys Fund and the
AlphaKeys Fund's fees and expenses, actual events or results or the actual performance of the
AlphaKeys Fund may differ materially from those reflected or contemplated in such forward-
looking statements.
No representation or warranty is being made herein as to the past or future investment
performance of the AlphaKeys Fund or the Underlying Fund. Only those particular
representations and warranties that may be made by the AlphaKeys Fund in a definitive investor
application ("Investor Application") relating to the purchase of Class B Interests, when and if
one is executed, and subject to such limitations and restrictions as may be specified in such
Investor Application, shall have any legal effect.
The Administrator is registered as a "commodity pool operator" with the CFTC and is a member
of the National Futures Association ("NFA") in such capacity under the U.S. Commodity
Exchange Act, as amended. With respect to the AlphaKeys Fund, the Administrator has claimed
an exemption pursuant to CFTC Rule 4.7 for relief from certain requirements applicable to a
registered commodity pool operator. See REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS: "U.S.
Commodity Exchange Act."
Except where otherwise indicated, the information contained in this Memorandum has been
compiled as of the date set forth below, and the information regarding the Underlying Fund is as
of the date set forth in the Underlying Fund Memorandum. Neither the AlphaKeys Fund nor any

there has been no change in the affairs of the AlphaKeys Fund or of the Underlying Fund since
such date.
This Memorandum and the information contained herein are being furnished on a confidential

person's evaluation of the Class B Interests and the AlphaKeys Fund, provided that such advisers
are first advised of and instructed to comply with the confidentiality and use restriction on the
information contained in this Memorandum) without the Administrator's prior express written

representations other than as contained in this Memorandum and any representation or
information not contained herein must not be relied upon as having been authorized by the
AlphaKeys Fund and the Administrator or any of their respective directors, officers, employees,

are made as of the date of the initial distribution of this Memorandum unless otherwise expressly
stated herein. The delivery of this Memorandum does not imply that any information contained
herein is correct as of any time subsequent to the date of this Memorandum.
The distribution of this Memorandum and the offer and sale of the Class B Interests in certain
jurisdictions may be restricted by law. This Memorandum does not constitute an offer to sell or
the solicitation of an offer to buy in any state or other jurisdiction to any person to whom it is

Prospective non-U.S. Investors should inform themselves as to the legal requirements and tax
consequences within the countries of their citizenship, residence, domicile and place of business

L SUNIMARY OF TERMS
The following summary is qualified entirely by the detailed information appearing elsewhere in
this Memorandum and by the terms and conditions of the limited liability company agreement of
the AlphaKeys Fund (as amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the
"AlphaKeys Fund Agreement) attached hereto as Appendix B and the Investor Application, each
of which should be read carefully and retained for future reference. Certain information
contained in this Memorandum relating to the Underlying Fund Manager and the Underlying
Fund has been derived by UBS Financial Services Inc. from materials finished by the
UnderlyingFundManager. For a more detailed description ofthe UnderlyingFundManager and
the Underlying Fund, see the UnderlyingFundMemorandum.
As used in this Memorandum, the following capitalized terms have the following meanings.
"AlphaKeys Fund" refers to AlphaKeys Millennium Fund, L.L.C. (f/lc/a UBS Millennium Fund,
L.L.C.), a Delaware limited liability company "Underlying Fund" refers to Millennium USA LP,
a Delaware limited partnership, and any intermediate investment vehicles controlled by the
Underlying Fund Manager or its affiliates and into which the Underlying Fund directly or
indirectly invests all or a portion of its assets (e.g., through a masterfeeder structure).
"Underlying Fund Manager" refers, individually or collectively, as the context may require, to
Millennium Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, the general partner of the
Underlying Fund. "Underlying Fund Memorandum" refers collectively to the Confidential
Memorandum ofMillennium USA LP and the ConfidentialMemorandum ofMillennium Partners,
L.P., and any supplements thereto, attached hereto as Appendix A. "Underlying Fund
Documents" refers to the offering and organizational documents of Millennium USA LP, and
certain other documents referred to herein related to the UnderlyingFund.
THE ALPHAKEYS FUND The AlphaKeys Fund is currently offering two classes of interests:
Class A Interests and Class B Interests (together with additional
classes, sub-classes, series or tranches of interests the AlphaKeys
Fund may offer from time to time "Interests"). This Memorandum
relates solely to an offering of Class B Interests. In respect of
Class B Interests, the AlphaKeys Fund is offering two sub-classes
of Interests: Advisory Sub-Class Interests and Brokerage Sub-Class
Interests. Advisory Sub-Class Interests will be offered only to
Investors who are clients of UBS Financial Services Inc.
("UBSFS") who invested through the UBS Institutional Consulting
program or another UBSFS investment advisory program as
permitted by the Administrator in its sole discretion (an "Advisors,
Program"), pursuant to which UBSFS or its affiliates will receive a
fee directly from such Investor (an "Advisory Sub-Class Investor")
for the Advisory Sub-Class Interests. Brokerage Sub-Class
Interests will be offered to all other clients of UBSFS unless
otherwise determined by the Administrator (each, a "Brokerage
Sub-Class Investor" and, together with each Advisory Sub-Class
Investor, each an "Investor").

CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003863

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
INVESTMENT PROGRAM The AlphaKeys Fund has been organized to invest substantially all
of its capital in Millennium USA LP, a Delaware limited
partnership (the "Underlying Fund"), which may invest all or a
portion of its assets through other investment vehicles (e.g. through
a master-feeder structure) as further described in the Underlying
Fund Memorandum.
The objective of the AlphaKeys Fund is to invest in the Underlying
Fund. The Underlying Fund's principal trading objective (through
its investment in Millennium Partners, L.P. (the "Underlying
Muter Fund")) is to achieve above-average appreciation by
opportunistically trading and investing in a wide variety of
securities, instruments, and other investment opportunities and
engaging in a broad array of trading and investment strategies.
There are no substantive limits on the investment strategies that
may be pursued by the Underlying Fund. For a detailed description
of the Underlying Fund's investment program, see "Millennium
USA's Investment Program and Strategy" in Part One of the
Underlying Fund Memorandum and the entirety of Part Two of the
Underlying Fund Memorandum. The Underlying Fund is a limited
partner of, and invests primarily in, the Underlying Muter Fund, a
Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership. For ease of
reference, the investment strategies, operations and performance of
the Underlying Fund and Underlying Muter Fund are together
referred to as those of the Underlying Fund.
The AlphaKeys Fund from time to time may hold some of its
assets in cash (not earning interest), or invested in money market
securities, cash equivalents, short-to-medium term federal tax-
exempt debt obligations and similar securities of governmental and
private issuers, including funds that normally invest primarily in
such securities ("Temporary Investments") (i) pending investment
in the Underlying Fund or as the Administrator determines is
necessary or prudent, in its discretion and/or (ii) pursuant to the
retention of appropriate reserves (as determined in the sole
discretion of the Administrator) in order to satisfy the AlphaKeys
Fund's expenses. Subject to the foregoing, substantially all of the
AlphaKeys Fund's assets are expected to be invested in the
Underlying Fund.
INTERESTS OFFERED The Underlying Fund offers and/or has issued multiple classes,
sub-classes or series of interests ("Underlying Fund Interests").
The AlphaKeys Fund offers and/or has issued multiple classes,
sub-classes, series or tranches of Interests. This Memorandum
relates solely to an offering of Class B Interests, with respect to
which the AlphaKeys Fund anticipates investing only in Class HH
interests of the Underlying Fund, as described in the Underlying
-2-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003864
EFTA00239196
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Fund Memorandum. Class HH interests do not participate in gains
and losses from "new issues" (as such term is defined by the
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA")) and
activities that the Underlying Fund Manager determines are related
thereto. The AlphaKeys Fund may invest in any other class, sub-
class or series of the Underlying Fund if it is permitted to do so in
the future by the Underlying Fund, in the Administrator's
discretion without prior notice or consent.
The Underlying Fund Memorandum should be read carefully by all
prospective Investors.
Investors in the AlphaKeys Fund will not be investors of the
Underlying Fund and will have no direct interest in or rights with
respect to or standing or recourse against the Underlying Fund, the
Underlying Fund Manager or any affiliate, officer, director,
member or partner or other affiliate of any of them. None of the
AlphaKeys Fund, UBS Americas, Inc. or any of its affiliates has
the right to participate in the control, management or operations of
the Underlying Fund, nor has any discretion over the investments
of the Underlying Fund.
As a result of fees and expenses of the AlphaKeys Fund (including
the Administrative Fee, as defined below) and the need to reserve
amounts to pay AlphaKeys Fund obligations, the amount of each
Investor's indirect investment in the Underlying Fund will be less
than what it would have been had such Investor invested directly in
the Underlying Fund.
There can be no guarantee that the Underlying Fund will
successfully employ its investment program or that either of the
AlphaKeys Fund or the Underlying Fund achieves its investment
objective. Any losses by the AlphaKeys Fund will be borne solely
by the Investors and not by the Administrator or its affiliates.
APPLICATION FOR Both initial and additional applications for Class B Interests by
INTERESTS eligible Investors may be accepted at such times as the AlphaKeys
Fund may determine, subject to the receipt of cleared funds on or
before the acceptance date set by the AlphaKeys Fund. Capital
contributions made prior to any closing, including the initial
closing, the timing of which will be determined in the sole
discretion of the Administrator (as defined below), may be held in
an escrow or similar account pending such closing at the discretion
of the Administrator. It is possible such account will not earn
interest. After the initial closing, initial applications and additional
capital contributions generally will be accepted monthly. The
AlphaKeys Fund, in its sole and absolute discretion, reserves the
-3-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003865
EFTA00239197
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
right to reject, in whole or in part, any application for Class B
Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund at any time and to suspend
acceptance of subscriptions, which suspension may later be
terminated by the Administrator. Generally, the minimum initial
investment in the AlphaKeys Fund is $250,000. Investors may
make additional capital contributions in amounts not less than
$50,000 unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, in its
sole discretion. The AlphaKeys Fund, in its sole discretion, may
vary the investment minimums from time to time. Contributions to
the capital of the AlphaKeys Fund will be payable in cash.
Investors must be "accredited investors" as defined in Regulation D
promulgated under the 1933 Act (each, an "Accredited Investor")
and "qualified purchasers" as defined in Section 2(aX51XA) of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act")
(each, a "Qualified Purchaser") unless otherwise permitted by law.
See APPLICATION FOR INTERESTS: "Eligible Investors."
LEVERAGE: The AlphaKeys Fund may borrow money for any purpose, but
currently contemplates borrowing only for limited purposes such as
(i) for temporary or emergency purposes or in connection with
withdrawals by an Investor, (ii) to invest in the Underlying Fund
pending the receipt of capital contributions from Investors and
(iii) to cover any shortfall in the AlphaKeys Fund's ability to
perform any payment obligations when due. If the AlphaKeys
Fund borrows money, its Net Asset Value (as defined below) may
be subject to greater fluctuation until the borrowing is repaid.
The Underlying Fund may use leverage in its trading of securities
(subject to any restrictions described in the Underlying Fund
Memorandum) and may sell securities short. The use of leverage
and short sales has attendant risks and can, in certain
circumstances, increase the adverse impact to which the
Underlying Fund's portfolio (and in turn, that of the AlphaKeys
Fund) may be subject. See "The Master Partnership's Investment
Program and Description: Leverage and Loans" in the Underlying
Fund Memorandum.
THE ADMINISTRATOR UBS Fund Advisor, L.L.C. has been appointed by the Investors to
provide certain administrative or support services to the AlphaKeys
Fund (in such capacity, the "Administrator") pursuant to an
administrative services agreement with the AlphaKeys Fund (the
"Administrative Services Agreement"). One or more affiliates of
the Administrator and the Placement Agent (as defined below) and
third parties will be engaged to provide certain services to the
AlphaKeys Fund at the expense of the AlphaKeys Fund. The
Administrator and/or its affiliates provide certain administrative
-4-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003866
EFTA00239198
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
and investment advisory services to registered and unregistered
investment funds and individual accounts. The Administrator will
serve as the "Manage?' of the AlphaKeys Fund (in such capacity,
the "Manager") as such term is defined within the meaning of the
Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, Title 6 of the Delaware
Code, Section 18-101 et seq., as amended from time to time (the
"LLC Act"). The Administrator and/or an affiliate may hold a
nominal Interest in, and may therefore be an investor of, the
AlphaKeys Fund. The Administrator currently serves (and may in
the future serve) as administrator to one or more parallel funds
investing in the Underlying Fund or similar funds managed by
Millennium or an affiliate thereof (such funds "Other AlphaKeys
Millennium Funds").
The Administrator is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of UBS
Americas, Inc. (the "UBS Americas") which, in turn, is a wholly
owned subsidiary of UBS AG (together with its affiliates, "UBS"),
a Swiss bank. UBSFS, a wholly owned subsidiary of UBS
Americas, is registered as a broker-dealer under the U.S. Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), and is a
member of the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. and other principal
securities exchanges. The offices of the Administrator are located
at 1285 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10019, and
its telephone number is (800) 486-2608.
The Administrator may, directly or indirectly, assign all or any part
of its rights and duties under the Administrative Services
Agreement to any individual or entity, with the prior approval of
the AlphaKeys Fund. In the event of an assignment of the
Administrative Services Agreement, the Manager of the
AlphaKeys Fund is authorized to grant consent on behalf of the
AlphaKeys Fund. The Manager will provide written notice to the
Investors in the event that it grants consent to an assignment.
Because the Manager and the Administrator are currently the same
entity, it is unlikely that the Manager will withhold consent to an
assignment proposed by the Administrator.
In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Manager
may resign as Manager of the AlphaKeys Fund and cause the
AlphaKeys Fund to admit a different individual or entity as
manager in addition to or as a replacement and successor for the
current Manager of the AlphaKeys Fund with (i) the prior consent
of the AlphaKeys Fund, or (ii) prior notice to the AlphaKeys Fund
and, to the extent consistent with applicable law, without the prior
consent of the AlphaKeys Fund. The Manager expects (but is not
required) to admit an entity not affiliated with the Manager as a
successor manager.
-5-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003867
EFTA00239199
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
The Administrator may be removed as the Manager of the
AlphaKeys Fund and/or the Administrative Services Agreement
may be terminated upon the vote of at least a majority-in-interest of
Investors who are not affiliates of the Administrator ("Unaffiliated
Investors") at a meeting of the Investors called for such purpose as
further described in the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement. A substitute
manager may be appointed upon the vote of at least a majority-in-
interest of the Unaffiliated Investors. In certain circumstances, the
AlphaKeys Fund Agreement permits the Administrator to reduce
an Investor's voting or approval rights.
ADMINISTRATIVE FEE In consideration for the services provided by the Administrator, the
AlphaKeys Fund will pay the Administrator a fee (the
"Administrative Fee") on behalf of each Brokerage Sub-Class
Investor equal to (a) 1.0% per annum of the capital account balance
of each Brokerage Sub-Class Investor with a Fee Base (as defined
below) of less than $3 million and (b) 0.75% per annum of the
capital account balance of each Brokerage Sub-Class Investor with
a Fee Base of $3 million or more. The Administrative Fee is
determined as of the appropriate date and payable monthly in
arrears. The "Fee Base" with respect to any Brokerage Sub-Class
Investor is the amount equal to the aggregate capital contributions
made by such Brokerage Sub-Class Investor (including capital
contributions made at the beginning of such fiscal period) less
aggregate withdrawals made by, and distributions to, such
Brokerage Sub-Class Investor, in each case with respect to the
AlphaKeys Fund.
The Administrative Fee is not paid to the Administrator in respect
of Advisory Sub-Class Investors. If an Investor holding an
Advisory Sub-Class Interest terminates its participation in an
Advisory Program and, therefore, UBSFS or its affiliates are no
longer receiving a fee from such Investor pursuant thereto, then the
AlphaKeys Fund may convert such Investor's Advisory Sub-Class
Interest into a Brokerage Sub-Class Interest and cause such
Investor to bear the Administrative Fee due to the Administrator
with respect to the Brokerage Sub-Class Interest accordingly,
subject to waiver in the Administrator's discretion.
The AlphaKeys Fund does not expect to permit mid-month
investments or withdrawals. If the AlphaKeys Fund or the
Administrator permits an Investor to make a capital contribution on
any day other than the first day of any month, the AlphaKeys Fund
may, in the Administrator's sole discretion, be required to pay, in
lieu of a full Administrative Fee for such month, a prorated
Administrative Fee with respect to such Investor for such month.

If the AlphaKeys Fund or the Administrator permits an Investor to
make a withdrawal other than as of the last business day of a
month, the Administrative Fee for such month may, in the
Administrator's sole discretion, be prorated and paid accordingly,
as appropriate. The Administrative Fee will be paid to the
Administrator out of the AlphaKeys Fund's assets, and debited
against each Investor's capital account by the amount of the
Administrative Fee charged to the AlphaKeys Fund with respect to
such Investor. The Administrative Fee will be in addition to the
Underlying Fund Performance Allocation and other charges or
expenses of the Underlying Fund (as described below).
The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, waive or reduce the
Administrative Fee with respect to any Investor and may otherwise
vary the terms of the Administrative Fee as to an Investor. The
Administrator may also vary the terms of the Administrative Fee
with respect to a particular class, tranche or series (or sub-class,
sub-tranche or sub-series) of Interests, in the Administrator's sole
discretion.
PLACEMENT FEE Brokerage Sub-Class Investors will be charged by UBSFS (in such
capacity, the "Placement Agent") a placement fee (a "Placement
Fee") of 2% of the Investor's capital contribution (including any
additional capital contributions made by an Investor) to the
AlphaKeys Fund (subject to waiver by the Placement Agent in
limited circumstances). The Placement Fee is in addition to an
Investor's capital contribution to the AlphaKeys Fund and will not
be included in an Investor's capital account therein.
Advisory Sub-Class Investors will not be charged a Placement Fee.
Separately, the Administrator and the Placement Agent intend to
compensate the Placement Agent's financial advisors, as well as
others, for their ongoing servicing of clients with whom they have
placed Interests. Such compensation will be payable out of the
Administrative Fee.
UNDERLYING FUND A performance allocation of 20% of any net profit (determined net
PERFORMANCE of the Underlying Fund Management Fee as described herein) (the
ALLOCATION "Underlying Fund Performance Allocation") will be charged
annually, as further described in and subject to additional terms set
forth in the Underlying Fund Memorandum. See "Fees and
Expenses Relating to Millennium USA" and "Allocation of Gains
and Losses" in Part One of the Underlying Fund Memorandum for
further discussion of the Underlying Fund Performance Allocation.
UNDERLYING FUND Neither the Underlying Fund nor the Underlying Master Fund pays

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
EXPENSES a management fee. As set forth in the Underlying Fund
Memorandum, the Underlying Fund and the Underlying Master
Fund each bear a range of fees and expenses including, but not
limited to, expenses incurred with respect to, or in connection with,
the Underlying Master Fund and its affiliates or incurred directly
by the Underlying Master Fund (which cover, among other things,
the expenses, salaries, fringe benefits, bonuses, fees and
performance-based compensation paid or reimbursed to portfolio
managers, other employees, consultants, subcontractors, agents and
investment advisers engaged directly by the Underlying Master
Fund and its affiliates, fees paid to persons or entities who assist in
identifying and recruiting portfolio managers, and expenses related
to computers, equipment and technology (including, without
limitation, information technology hardware and software and
third-party software licensing, implementation, data management
and recovery services and custom developing costs) and expenses
related to maintaining offices, including leases, fixtures and
leasehold improvements). See "Fees and Expenses Relating to
Millennium USA" in Part One of the Underlying Fund
Memorandum and "The Master Partnership's Fees and Expenses"
in Part Two of the Underlying Fund Memorandum for further
discussion of the Underlying Fund's and Underlying Master
Fund's expenses.
OTHER EXPENSES BNY Mellon Alternative Investment Services (the "Sub-
Administrator") performs certain administration, accounting and
investor services for the AlphaKeys Fund and other investment
funds sponsored or advised by UBSFS or its affiliates. In
consideration for these services, the AlphaKeys Fund and certain
of these other investment funds will pay the Sub-Administrator an
annual fee calculated based upon the aggregate average net assets
of the AlphaKeys Fund and certain of these other investment funds,
subject to a minimum monthly fee, and will reimburse certain of
the Sub-Administrator's expenses. In addition, the Administrator
intends to retain a third party technology service provider (and the
Administrator, UBSFS or an affiliate may own a non-controlling
interest in such service provider) to provide an online portal
through which the AlphaKeys Fund investors will receive certain
of the reporting and monitoring services.
The AlphaKeys Fund will bear all costs, fees and expenses
incurred in the operation of the AlphaKeys Fund, other than those
specifically required to be borne by the Administrator and other
service providers pursuant to their agreements with the AlphaKeys
Fund. Expenses ("Expenses") to be borne by the AlphaKeys Fund
include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) all costs and
expenses related to investment transactions and positions for the
-8-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003870
EFTA00239202
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
AlphaKeys Fund's account, including, but not limited to, custodial
fees, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the AlphaKeys
Fund's investment in the Underlying Fund, including due
diligence, "road show" and other marketing-related expenses and
travel-related expenses, and fees and expenses related to any
Temporary Investments made by the AlphaKeys Fund; (ii) all costs
and expenses associated with borrowing; (iii) fees payable to the
Conflicts Review Committee (as defined herein) and the costs and
expenses of holding any meetings of the Conflicts Review
Committee or of Investors that are permitted or required to be held
under the terms of the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement or applicable
law; (iv) all costs and expenses associated with the organization
and operation of the AlphaKeys Fund, including offering costs and
the costs of compliance with any applicable federal, state and other
laws; tax preparation and reporting fees; taxes, including but not
limited to, tax payments made on behalf of Investors; (v) fees and
disbursements of any attorneys, accountants, auditors and other
consultants and professionals engaged on behalf of the AlphaKeys
Fund, including in connection with an audit; (vi) the costs of any
liability or other insurance obtained on behalf of the AlphaKeys
Fund or the Administrator; (vii) all costs and expenses of
preparing, setting in type, printing and distributing reports and
other communications to Investors; (viii) all expenses of valuing
the AlphaKeys Fund's Net Asset Value, including any equipment
or services obtained for the purpose of valuing the AlphaKeys
Fund's investment portfolio, including appraisal and valuation
services provided by third-party service providers; (ix) reporting
and monitoring costs of an online portal; (x) all charges for
equipment or services used for communications between the
AlphaKeys Fund and any custodian or other agent engaged by the
AlphaKeys Fund; (xi) the Administrative Fee and the fees and
expenses of any custodians, third-party service providers
(including service providers in which the Administrator, UBSFS,
or an affiliate may own a non-controlling interest) and other
persons providing administrative or sub-administrative services to
the AlphaKeys Fund; (xii) fees and expenses incurred in
connection with the preparation for or defense or disposition of any
investigation, action, suit, arbitration or other proceeding, and any
indemnification expenses related thereto; and (xiii) such other
types of expenses as may be approved from time to time by the
Administrator.
The AlphaKeys Fund may pay costs and expenses, including any
amounts paid or accrued by the AlphaKeys Fund vis-a-vis its
investment in the Underlying Fund, such as withdrawal charges, if
any. In addition, such expenses may be assessed against the
individual Investor's capital account, in the Administrator's
-9-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003871
EFTA00239203
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
discretion, as discussed further under "Withdrawals" below.
Expenses (other than the Administrative Fee, which will be
charged as described above) will be allocated pro rata among the
Investors, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator. The
AlphaKeys Fund will reimburse the Administrator for any of the
above expenses that it may pay on behalf of the AlphaKeys Fund.
The AlphaKeys Fund will bear its organizational and offering
expenses, which may be amortized over a five year period. Such
amortization over a five year period may be a divergence from U.S.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). Although
amortization over a five year period is not deemed in accordance
with GAAP, the Net Asset Value attributable to each Investor's
capital account (as reported in the Investor's capital account
statements) may still be calculated by amortizing organizational
and offering costs over such five year period and may therefore
differ from the Net Asset Value in the financial statements
determined in accordance with GAAP.
The Administrator may determine to bear, waive or delay certain
expenses (including organizational expenses of the AlphaKeys
Fund) in its sole discretion, under such terms and in such manner
as the Administrator chooses.
In addition to the foregoing costs and expenses, Investors will bear
the cost of the AlphaKeys Fund's pro rata share of the Underlying
Fund Performance Allocation and the Underlying Fund's and
Underlying Master Fund's fees and expenses allocable to the
AlphaKeys Fund in the Underlying Fund, each as described above.
Among other things, under the Underlying Fund Documents, the
Underlying Fund (and indirectly the AlphaKeys Fund, like all other
investors in the Underlying Fund) has agreed to indemnify the
Underlying Fund Manager and its affiliates (and each of its
respective interest holders, directors, officers, employees, agents
and each person who controls any of the foregoing and their
executors, heirs, assigns, successors and other legal
representatives). Any costs or liabilities associated with such
indemnification will be borne in part by the Underlying Fund. See
"Fees and Expenses Relating to Millennium USA" in Part One of
The Underlying Fund Memorandum and "The Master Partnership's
Fees and Expenses" in Part Two of the Underlying Fund
Memorandum for further discussion of the Underlying Fund's and
Underlying Master Fund's expenses.
Appropriate reserves may be created, accrued and charged against
net assets for contingent liabilities known to the Administrator.
Reserves will be in such amounts, subject to increase or reduction,
-10-

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
and as of such date as the Administrator may deem necessary or
appropriate.
TERMS OF UNDERLYING The terms of the Underlying Fund, including the terms described
FUND herein, are subject to change. In the event of any such change to
the terms of the Underlying Fund, as an investor in the Underlying
Fund, the AlphaKeys Fund will be subject to such changed terms.
TERM The AlphaKeys Fund's term is perpetual unless it is otherwise
wound up under the terms of the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement. The
AlphaKeys Fund will be voluntarily dissolved: (i) at the election of
the Administrator, or (ii) as required by operation of law. Upon the
occurrence of any event of dissolution, the Administrator, acting
directly, or a liquidator under appointment by the Administrator, is
charged with winding up the affairs of the AlphaKeys Fund and
liquidating its assets. Net profits or net loss during the fiscal period
including the period of liquidation will be allocated as described in
the section titled SUMMARY OF TERMS: "Allocation of Profit
and Loss."
Upon the dissolution of the AlphaKeys Fund, its assets are to be
distributed (1) first to satisfy the debts, liabilities and obligations of
the AlphaKeys Fund, other than debts to Investors, including actual
or anticipated liquidation expenses, (2) next to satisfy debts owing
to the Investors and (3) finally to the Investors proportionately in
accordance with the balances in their respective capital accounts.
Assets may be distributed in kind if the Administrator or liquidator
determines that such a distribution would be in the interests of the
Investors in facilitating an orderly liquidation.
WITHDRAWALS An Investor shall be permitted to make a withdrawal of Class B
Interests as of the close of business on March 31, June 30,
September 30 and December 31 of each year (each such day, a
"Withdrawal Date").
In the event that withdrawal requests are received for any
Withdrawal Date aggregating to more than five percent (5%) of the
aggregate Net Asset Value of the AlphaKeys Fund as of such
Withdrawal Date, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion,
(i) satisfy all such withdrawal requests or (ii) reduce all such
withdrawal requests, pro rata based on the requested withdrawal
amount of each Investor, so that only 5% (or a higher percentage,
in the sole discretion of the Administrator) of the aggregate Net
Asset Value of the AlphaKeys Fund as of such Withdrawal Date is
withdrawn as of such date (the "Class B Gate"). To the extent a
request for withdrawal of Class B Interests is not fully satisfied due
to the Class B Gate, the applicable Investor will be deemed
CONFIDENTIAL LiBSTERRAMAR00003873
EFTA00239205
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
automatically to have resubmitted a withdrawal request for the
remaining portion of such unsatisfied request as of the next
Withdrawal Date and, if the Class B Gate applies as of such next
Withdrawal Date, such withdrawal request may be subject to
reduction in the same manner as new withdrawal requests pursuant
to the Class B Gate. For the avoidance of doubt, both new
withdrawal requests for a Withdrawal Date and withdrawal
requests deemed resubmitted for such Withdrawal Date will be
reduced pro rata by the Class B Gate, if applicable, as of such date.
Subject to the terms of withdrawal payments by the Underlying
Fund, a withdrawing Investor subject to the Class B Gate(s) will
generally receive payment as of each subsequent Withdrawal Date
until the Investor's entire withdrawal request is satisfied. Capital
not withdrawn from the AlphaKeys Fund by virtue of the foregoing
restrictions shall remain at risk of (and will be subject to the profits
and losses resulting from) the AlphaKeys Fund's business until the
effective date of the withdrawal.
In addition, to the extent the AlphaKeys Fund is restricted from
making withdrawals from the Underlying Fund due to a gating or
other restriction imposed by the Underlying Fund, the
Administrator may, in its sole and absolute discretion, reduce the
withdrawals requested by Investors pro rata according to the
method described above.
An Investor wishing to withdraw capital or withdraw from the
AlphaKeys Fund must provide written notice to the Administrator
at least one hundred and five (105) days prior to a Withdrawal
Date, (unless the Administrator agrees to accept shorter notice), or
upon such other notice period, which may be longer, as may be
notified to the Investors, in the Manager's sole discretion.
In the case of withdrawals of 95% or more of the balance of an
Investor's capital account, an amount equal to 95% of the
estimated withdrawal proceeds is generally expected to be payable
to such Investor within sixty (60) days after the applicable
Withdrawal Date, and the balance will be paid, subject to audit
adjustment and with interest, within 30 days after the AlphaKeys
Fund issues its audited financial statements for the year in which
such Withdrawal Date occurred.
In the case of withdrawals of less than 95% of the balance of an
Investor's capital account, an amount equal to 100% of the
estimated withdrawal proceeds is generally expected to be payable
to such Investor within sixty (60) days after the applicable
Withdrawal Date.
-12-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003874
EFTA00239206
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Notwithstanding the foregoing, amounts held back may be larger
and/or paid out later than described above, as the ability of the
AlphaKeys Fund to honor withdrawal requests may be dependent
upon the AlphaKeys Fund's receipt of funds from the Underlying
Fund and its ability to make withdrawals from the Underlying
Fund, which is subject to the withdrawal terms of the Underlying
Fund and may be delayed or suspended altogether. See
"Millennium USA's Organization, Management, Structure, and
Operations" in Part One of the Underlying Fund Memorandum.
The Administrator may determine to satisfy a withdrawal request
in full, without a holdback, in its discretion.
Each withdrawal will be subject to a minimum withdrawal amount
of U.S. $50,000 and no partial withdrawals will be permitted if the
balance of the Investor's capital account with respect to its
remaining Interests would be less than U.S. $250,000, provided
that such requirements may be waived with respect to any Investor
by the Administrator in its sole discretion.
The amount due to any Investor whose Class B Interest or portion
thereof is withdrawn will be equal to the value of the Investor's
capital account or portion thereof based on the estimated Net Asset
Value of the AlphaKeys Fund's assets as of the applicable
Withdrawal Date, after giving effect to all allocations and charges
to be made to the Investor's capital account (including the
Administrative Fee) as of such date. The Administrator may
establish reserves and holdbacks for estimated, projected or
accrued expenses (including the Administrative Fee), liabilities and
contingencies (even if such reserves or holdbacks are not otherwise
required by generally accepted accounting principles) which could
reduce the amount of a distribution upon withdrawal. In addition,
in the sole discretion of the Administrator, any withdrawal by an
Investor may be subject to a charge, as the Administrator may
reasonably require, in order to defray the costs and expenses of the
AlphaKeys Fund in connection with such withdrawal, including
but not limited to any amounts paid or accrued by the AlphaKeys
Fund vis-à-vis its investment in the Underlying Fund, withdrawal
or similar charges imposed by the Underlying Fund.
The AlphaKeys Fund may, at times, receive withdrawal proceeds
in amounts that exceed the eligible withdrawal requests with
respect to the AlphaKeys Fund. The Administrator will generally
reinvest any such excess in the Underlying Fund as of the next
available capital contribution date. However, as a result of such
over-withdrawal, the AlphaKeys Fund may bear a greater amount
of Underlying Fund Incentive Allocation and/or other fees and
expenses than it would bear in the absence of such overwithdrawal.
-13-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003875
EFTA00239207
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Administrator may
require any Investor to withdraw its Class B Interests (in whole or
in part) for any or no reason. For example, the AlphaKeys Fund
may terminate the Class B Interest of any Investor who is a UBS
employee if the continued participation of such Investor is
determined by the Administrator to subject any of the AlphaKeys
Fund, the Administrator, or their respective affiliates to any
adverse consequence under any laws, rules or regulations
applicable to any of the AlphaKeys Fund, the Administrator, or
their respective affiliates. Distributions in respect of any such
required withdrawals may be made in the manner and in amounts
described above for voluntary withdrawals by Investors.
Please see "Withdrawal Rights" in the Underlying Fund
Memorandum for a more detailed description of the withdrawal
terms, including additional restrictions, applicable to the
AlphaKeys Fund's investment in the Underlying Fund.
LIMITATIONS ON Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, and in accordance
WITHDRAWALS with the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement, the Administrator may
suspend or delay the right of any Investor to withdraw all or a
portion of its capital account or to receive a distribution from the
AlphaKeys Fund if (i) the Administrator reasonably believes it
necessary, prudent or appropriate in connection with the operation
of the AlphaKeys Fund or (ii) the AlphaKeys Fund has not
received sufficient funds from the Underlying Fund or if the
AlphaKeys Fund's ability to make withdrawals from the
Underlying Fund is suspended, delayed, modified or denied. See
"Certain Risk Factors Relating to Millennium USA — Limit on
Withdrawals" in Part One of the Underlying Fund Memorandum
for a discussion of when the AlphaKeys Fund's ability to make
withdrawals from the Underlying Fund may be suspended,
delayed, modified or denied. Furthermore, unlike other interests in
the Underlying Fund (including the interests in which Class A
Interests are invested), the Underlying Fund's interests in which
the Class B Interests are invested have no special withdrawal rights
in the event of the death, disability, adjudication of incompetency,
bankruptcy, insolvency or withdrawal from the general partner of
the Underlying Master Fund of Israel A. Englander (a "Trigger
Event").
The Administrator specifically reserves the right to prohibit an
Investor from withdrawing all or a portion of its capital account or
from receiving a distribution from the AlphaKeys Fund if such
withdrawal or distribution would cause the assets of the
AlphaKeys Fund to be considered "plan assets" under
-14-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003876
EFTA00239208
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Section 3(42) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974, as amended ("ERISA"), and any rules and regulations
thereunder, and the plan assets regulation set forth by the U.S.
Department of Labor in the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations at 29
C.F.R. § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA
(collectively, the "Plan Assets Rules"). Further, Investors should
be aware that the withdrawal process could involve substantial
complications and delays, as the ability of the AlphaKeys Fund
to honor withdrawal requests may be dependent upon the
AlphaKeys Fund's ability to make withdrawals from the
Underlying Fund, which may be delayed or suspended
altogether. Accordingly, the Administrator may determine
that withdrawals should be delayed or suspended. The
Administrator may so delay or suspend redemptions from the
AlphaKeys Fund at a time when no such delay or suspension is
in effect with respect to one or more Other AlphaKeys
Millennium Funds.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, once
the AlphaKeys Fund has commenced liquidation, all withdrawal
rights and requests may be canceled or altered in the
Administrator's sole discretion. Withdrawals may be funded with
cash or securities. Although the Administrator generally expects
distributions in connection with withdrawals to be made in cash,
any such distributions may be in cash, in-kind, or partly in cash and
partly in-kind, in the Administrator's sole discretion.
Please see "Limitation on Withdrawals" in the Underlying Fund
Memorandum for a more detailed description of the withdrawal
terms, including additional restrictions, applicable to the
AlphaKeys Fund's investment in the Underlying Fund.
OTHER INTERESTS Interests of classes of the AlphaKeys Fund, including Class A
Interests, and interests of classes of Other AlphaKeys Millennium
Funds (collectively, "Other Interests") generally are significantly
more liquid than the Class B Interests. Such Other Interests with
more favorable liquidity terms may be offered to clients of UBSFS
from time to time, simultaneously with or at different times than
the Class B Interests, to the extent such Other Interests become
available. Generally, the availability of the Other Interests is
limited and may depend upon withdrawals of such Other Interests
from the AlphaKeys Fund or from the Other AlphaKeys
Millennium Funds. As a result, there is no guarantee that any
Other Interests would be available to any Investor, and the Investor
is likely to only have access to the Class B Interests, which provide
liquidity terms that are significantly less favorable than those
applicable to the Other Interests. See CERTAIN RISK FACTORS
-15-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003877
EFTA00239209
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
— Other Interest; Limited Liquidity below.
CAPITAL ACCOUNTS The AlphaKeys Fund will maintain a separate capital account for
each Investor, which will have an opening balance equal to such
Investor's initial contribution to the capital of the AlphaKeys Fund.
Each Investor's capital account will be increased by the sum of the
amount of cash constituting additional contributions by such
Investor to the capital of the AlphaKeys Fund, plus any amounts
credited to such Investor's capital account as described below.
Similarly, each Investor's capital account will be reduced by the
sum of the amount of any withdrawal from the AlphaKeys Fund of
the Class B Interest or portion of the Class B Interest of such
Investor, plus the amount of any distributions to such Investor, plus
any amounts debited against such Investor's capital account as
described below. Capital accounts of Investors are adjusted as of
the close of business on the last day of each fiscal period. The
AlphaKeys Fund may, in the Administrator's sole discretion,
establish a separate capital account with respect to an additional
contribution by an Investor and Investors may hold multiple
Interests.
ALLOCATION OF PROFIT Net profits or net losses of the AlphaKeys Fund for each fiscal
AND Loss period will be allocated among and credited to or debited against
the capital accounts of all Investors as of the last day of each fiscal
period in accordance with the balance of each such capital account
for such fiscal period (provided that allocations may be adjusted to
give effect to additional classes, sub-classes, series or tranches of
interests created by the AlphaKeys Fund). Net profits or net losses
will be measured as the net change in the Net Asset Value of the
AlphaKeys Fund, including any net change in unrealized
appreciation or depreciation of investments and realized income
and gains or losses and expenses during a fiscal period, before
giving effect to the Administrative Fee (and certain other items)
and any withdrawals by Investors.
In the event the Administrator determines that, based upon tax or
regulatory reasons, or any other reasons, an Investor should not
participate, in whole or in part, in allocations of net profit and net
loss to one or more of its capital accounts attributable to trading or
investing in any security, type of security or any other transaction,
the Administrator may allocate such profit and/or loss to the capital
accounts of such Investor or other Investors not subject to such
limitations. The Administrator may also choose, based upon the
reasons above, to allocate interest earned on any security, type of
security or any other transaction to a memorandum account
separate from such Investor's capital account(s).
-16-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003878
EFTA00239210
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
To the greatest extent possible, allocations for federal income tax
purposes generally will be made among the Investors so as to
reflect equitably amounts credited or debited to each Investor's
capital account. The AlphaKeys Fund may specially allocate items
of taxable income and gain or loss and deduction to a withdrawing
Investor. This special allocation to or from a withdrawing Investor
could result in Investors (including the withdrawing Investor)
receiving more or less items of income, gain, deduction or loss
(and/or income, gains, deductions or losses of a different character)
than they would receive in the absence of such allocations.
VALUATION The AlphaKeys Fund and/or each class, sub-class, tranche or series
of Interests issued by the AlphaKeys Fund will have a Net Asset
Value determined at such times as the Administrator may
determine. The Net Asset Value will be equal to the sum of the
value of all the gross assets of the AlphaKeys Fund and/or each
class, sub-class, tranche or series minus all gross liabilities of the
AlphaKeys Fund and/or such class, sub-class, tranche or series,
including (after accrual thereof) any expenses. The term "Net Asset
Value" in respect of the AlphaKeys Fund or the Underlying Fund
(or any class, tranche or series (or sub-class or sub-series) thereof)
shall mean the then-current Net Asset Value of such AlphaKeys
Fund or Underlying Fund (or such class, tranche or series (or sub-
class or sub-series) thereof).
The assets of the AlphaKeys Fund will be valued in accordance
with GAAP or another methodology determined appropriate by the
Administrator in its sole discretion. Based on current GAAP
requirements, the Administrator expects to rely on valuation
information provided by the Underlying Fund (which will be
unaudited, except for information as of the date of the Underlying
Fund's annual audit), which if inaccurate or incomplete could
adversely affect the Administrator's ability to determine the Net
Asset Value and, accordingly, value the Class B Interests
accurately. In certain circumstances, the Administrator may be
required by GAAP to make adjustments to the valuation
information provided by the Underlying Fund. Absent bad faith or
manifest error, valuation determinations made by the Administrator
will be conclusive and binding.
Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, the
AlphaKeys Fund's net profits and net losses will be determined in
accordance with GAAP applied consistently and will include net
realized and unrealized profits or losses on the AlphaKeys Fund's
investments.
LIABILITY OF InivEsToRs Investors in the AlphaKeys Fund will be members of a limited
-17-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003879
EFTA00239211
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
liability company as provided under Delaware law. Under
Delaware law and the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement, an Investor
will not be liable for the debts, obligations or liabilities of the
AlphaKeys Fund solely by reason of being an Investor, except that
the Investor may be obligated to (i) make capital contributions to
the AlphaKeys Fund pursuant to the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement
and applicable law, including to repay any funds wrongfully
distributed to the Investor, (ii) repay amounts paid to such Investor
in connection with a withdrawal as a result of a determination by
the Administrator that the amount paid to such Investor was
materially incorrect, (iii) repay withholding or other taxes
applicable with respect to such Investor paid by the AlphaKeys
Fund, or (iv) repay liabilities of the AlphaKeys Fund incurred
during a prior period in which such Investor was an Investor in the
AlphaKeys Fund (including any such liabilities of the AlphaKeys
Fund to the Underlying Fund).
The Administrator will not be personally liable to any Investor for
the repayment of any balance in such Investor's capital account or
for capital contributions by such Investor to the capital of the
AlphaKeys Fund or by reason of any change in the federal or state
income tax laws applicable to the AlphaKeys Fund or its Investors.
EXCULPATION AND The AlphaKeys Fund Agreement provides that the Manager will
INDEMNIFICATION not be liable to the AlphaKeys Fund for any acts or omissions by
the Manager, and any member, director, officer or employee of the
Manager, or any of its affiliates, for any error of judgment, mistake
of law or any act or omission in connection with the performance
of its duties under the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement, unless it shall
be determined by final judicial decision on the merits, from which
there is no further right to appeal, that such error, mistake or act or
omission constitutes willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross
negligence in connection with the conduct of the Manager's duties
under the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement; provided, that under no
circumstance will the Manager be liable for any indirect or
consequential damages. The AlphaKeys Fund (and not any
Indemnified Person), will (i) be responsible for any losses resulting
from "trading" errors and similar human errors, absent willful
misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of
the obligations and duties of any Indemnified Person, or (ii) receive
the gain from such errors, as the case may be.
The AlphaKeys Fund will indemnify the Manager, and any
member, director, officer or employee of the Manager, and any of
their affiliates (each, an "Indemnified Person") for, and hold each
Indemnified Person harmless against, any loss, liability or expense,
including, without limit, reasonable counsel fees, incurred on the
-18-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003880
EFTA00239212
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
part of an Indemnified Person arising out of or in connection with
the Manager's acceptance of, or the performance of its duties and
obligations under, the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement, as well as the
costs and expenses of defending against any claim or liability
arising out of or relating to the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement, absent
willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence of its obligations
to the AlphaKeys Fund; provided, however, that nothing contained
in the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement shall constitute a waiver or
limitation of any rights which the AlphaKeys Fund may have under
applicable securities or other laws.
Expenses incurred by an Indemnified Person in defense or
settlement of any claim that may be subject to a right of
indemnification hereunder will be advanced by the AlphaKeys
Fund to such Indemnified Person prior to the final disposition
thereof upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such
Indemnified Person to repay such amount if a court of competent
jurisdiction determines in a non-appealable judgment that the
Indemnified Person was not entitled to be indemnified hereunder.
Any and all judgments against the AlphaKeys Fund or the Manager
in respect of which the Manager is entitled to indemnification shall
be satisfied from the AlphaKeys Fund assets, including capital
contributions. If the Manager determines that it is appropriate or
necessary to do so, the Manager may cause the AlphaKeys Fund to
establish reasonable reserves, escrow accounts or similar accounts
to fund its obligations.
The Administrative Services Agreement and the Investor
Application provide that the Administrator and its affiliates will
receive certain exculpation and indemnification rights that are
substantially similar to those afforded to the Manager pursuant to
the terms of the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement.
In addition, the AlphaKeys Fund indemnifies (i) the Placement
Agent under certain circumstances, as set forth in the placement
agreement between the AlphaKeys Fund and the Placement Agent
(the "Placement Agreement"); and (ii) the Sub-Administrator under
certain circumstances, as set forth in the administration agreement
between the AlphaKeys Fund and the Sub-Administrator.
AMENDMENT OF THE The AlphaKeys Fund Agreement may be amended with the
ALPHAKEYS FuND approval of (i) the Administrator in its capacity as Manager and
AGREEMENT (ii) a majority-in-interest of the Investors. An Investor will be
deemed to consent to a proposed amendment if the Investor has
received notice of such amendment and did not object thereto
within a reasonable, and specifically disclosed, time period that is
consistent with applicable law. Amendments increasing the
-19-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003881
EFTA00239213
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
obligation of any Investor to make capital contributions to the
AlphaKeys Fund or reducing any Investor's capital account (in
each case other than as permitted in the AlphaKeys Fund
Agreement) may not be made without the consent of any Investors
adversely affected thereby or unless any such Investor has received
notice of such amendment and, in the case of an Investor objecting
to such amendment, a reasonable opportunity to withdraw its Class
B Interests. Amendments that (i) increase Investor rights,
including with respect to voting, or (ii) otherwise would not
adversely affect Investors, will not require Investor consent.
The terms of the Underlying Fund, including the terms described
herein, are subject to change. In the event of any change to the
terms of the Underlying Fund, as an investor in the Underlying
Fund, the AlphaKeys Fund will be subject to such changed terms
and will change its terms accordingly.
TRANSFER REgrfficrioNs No person may become a substitute Investor without the written
consent of the Administrator, which consent may be withheld for
any reason in its sole and absolute discretion and is expected to be
granted, if at all, only under extenuating circumstances, in
connection with a transfer to an entity that does not result in a
change of beneficial ownership. The Administrator may require
such documentation as it shall determine in its sole discretion.
SUMMARY OF TAXATION The AlphaKeys Fund intends to be treated as a partnership for
federal income tax purposes and not as an association or a publicly
traded partnership taxable as a corporation. Subject to certain
exceptions discussed in "TAX ASPECTS" below, as a partnership,
the AlphaKeys Fund generally should not be subject to federal
income tax, and each Investor will be required to report on its own
annual tax return its distributive share of the AlphaKeys Fund's
taxable income or loss (which, assuming the Underlying Fund and
the Underlying Master Fund are each properly treated as a
partnership for federal income tax purposes and not as an
association or a publicly traded partnership taxable as a
corporation, will consist almost entirely of the AlphaKeys Fund's
share of the taxable income or loss of the Underlying Fund, which,
in turn, will consist primarily of the Underlying Fund's share of the
taxable income or loss of the Underlying Master Fund). Each
Investor must report its share of the AlphaKeys Fund's taxable
income or loss, regardless of the extent to which, or whether, the
AlphaKeys Fund or such Investor receives corresponding
distributions for such taxable year, and such Investor, thus, may
incur income tax liabilities in excess of any distributions to or from
the AlphaKeys Fund.
-20-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003882
EFTA00239214
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
An investment in the AlphaKeys Fund may have the effect of
requiring the Investor to file income or other tax returns in
jurisdictions in which the AlphaKeys Fund, the Underlying Fund
or the Underlying Master Fund conducts investment activities. In
order for the AlphaKeys Fund to complete its tax reporting
requirements, the AlphaKeys Fund must, among other things,
receive timely information from the Underlying Fund.
If the AlphaKeys Fund incurs a withholding tax or other tax
obligation with respect to the share of AlphaKeys Fund income
allocable to any Investor in the Administrator's sole discretion, the
amount of such obligation shall be debited against the Capital
Account of such Investor, and any amounts then or thereafter
distributable to such Investor may be reduced by the amount of
such taxes. If the amount of such taxes is greater than any such
distributable amounts, then such Investor shall be required to pay
to the AlphaKeys Fund, upon demand, the amount of such excess.
Investors should note that the AlphaKeys Fund is not generally
obligated, and does not intend, to make distributions. Further, the
AlphaKeys Fund is not required, and does not intend, to make
distributions to an Investor to cover U.S. federal and state income
taxes or other tax liabilities of such Investor with respect to its
allocable share of AlphaKeys Fund income and gain. Accordingly,
a non-withdrawing Investor will be required to use cash from other
sources in order to pay tax on its taxable income that is attributable
to its Class B Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund. See "TAX
ASPECTS."
TAX-EXEMPT ENTITIES The AlphaKeys Fund may borrow for any purpose and it is
expected that the Underlying Fund or Underlying Master Fund will
use leverage in connection with its trading activities. However, the
AlphaKeys Fund only intends to borrow in limited circumstances,
if any. The Underlying Fund Memorandum provides that a portion
of the Underlying Fund's income may be treated as "unrelated
business taxable income" ("UBTI"), and therefore the AlphaKeys
Fund may generate UBTI as well (which will be significant if the
Underlying Fund generates significant UBTI, as it has in previous
years). Therefore, a tax-exempt Investor may incur income tax
liability with respect to its share of the net profits from such
leveraged transactions and other transactions to the extent they are
treated as giving rise to UBTI. Tax-exempt investors (including
individual retirement accounts ("IRAs"), to the extent investments
through IRAs are accepted) may be required to make payments,
including estimated payments, and file an income tax return for any
taxable year in which they have UBTI. To file an income tax
return, it may be necessary for the IRA or other tax-exempt
-21-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003883
EFTA00239215
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
investor to obtain an Employer Identification Number. The
AlphaKeys Fund will not accept subscriptions from charitable
remainder trusts. See TAX ASPECTS.
Investment in the AlphaKeys Fund by tax-exempt entities requires
special consideration. Trustees or administrators of such entities
are urged to review carefully the matters discussed in this
Memorandum.
ERISA CONSIDERATIONS The Administrator will use reasonable efforts to prevent the assets
of the AlphaKeys Fund from being considered "plan assets" within
the meaning of the Plan Assets Rules by limiting investment in
each class of Interests of the AlphaKeys Fund by "Benefit Plan
Investors" (as defined in the Plan Assets Rules and described in
CERTAIN ERISA AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS below) to
a level that would not be considered "significant" (as defined in the
Plan Assets Rules). Investors and persons making the decision to
invest in the AlphaKeys Fund on their behalf will be required to
identify an Investor's Benefit Plan status. See CERTAIN ERISA
AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS below.
If at any time the Administrator determines that equity participation
in any class of equity interests in the AlphaKeys Fund by Benefit
Plan Investors would be considered "significant" (as defined in the
Plan Assets Rules), the Administrator will be permitted to cause
one or more Benefit Plan Investors to withdraw or reduce their
Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund (including on a non-pro rata basis)
to the extent necessary so that equity participation in such class of
the AlphaKeys Fund by Benefit Plan Investors would not be
considered "significant" (as defined in the Plan Assets Rules). See
"CERTAIN ERISA AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS below.
Each prospective Investor subject to ERISA and/or
Section 4975 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code") (or any other similar laws) is
urged to consult its own legal and financial advisers as to the
provisions of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code (or such
similar laws) applicable to an investment in the AlphaKeys
Fund.
REPORTS TO INVESTORS The AlphaKeys Fund will furnish to Investors as soon as
practicable after the end of each taxable year such information as is
necessary for Investors to complete federal and state income tax or
information returns, along with any other tax information required
by law. For the AlphaKeys Fund to complete its tax reporting
requirements, it must receive information on a timely basis from
the Underlying Fund.
-22-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003884
EFTA00239216
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
It is expected that the AlphaKeys Fund's Schedule K-1s will
most likely not be available prior to April 15 (and may be
available significantly later than April 15) and, accordingly,
Investors would need to obtain extensions for the filing of their
individual tax returns at the federal, state and local level.
The AlphaKeys Fund also intends to deliver to the Investors
audited annual financial reports of the AlphaKeys Fund as soon as
practicable after the conclusion of the AlphaKeys Fund's fiscal
year; however, the AlphaKeys Fund may deliver unaudited annual
financial reports in its sole discretion. If the AlphaKeys Fund does
deliver audited reports, such annual audit can be completed only
once the AlphaKeys Fund receives audited financial statements for
the same fiscal year from the Underlying Fund. Consequently, it is
possible that audited annual financial reports of the AlphaKeys
Fund may be completed later than would otherwise be the case (up
to 180 days after the fiscal year end or any other period permitted
by law). Furthermore, if the Underlying Fund is unable to
complete its audit (or if the Underlying Fund issues a qualified
audit report), the AlphaKeys Fund will be unable to complete its
own audit (or the AlphaKeys Fund will have to issue a qualified
audit report). In addition, Investors may receive quarterly and
other unaudited periodic reports regarding the AlphaKeys Fund's
operations. To the extent that such reports reflect valuations of
investments made by the Underlying Fund, such valuations will be
based on information provided by the Underlying Fund, in its sole
discretion. Such valuations are subjective in nature and may not
conform to any particular valuation standard.
Audited financial reports, as well as other financial reports of the
AlphaKeys Fund, will be prepared in accordance with GAAP or
another methodology determined appropriate by the Administrator,
in its sole discretion. It is possible that the reporting method used
to prepare annual reports may differ from the method used with
respect to preparation of quarterly reports. The AlphaKeys Fund
will adopt the accrual method for tax accounting purposes or any
other accounting method permitted by the Code which the
Administrator determines in its sole discretion is in the best
interests of the AlphaKeys Fund.

RISK FACTORS AND An investment in the AlphaKeys Fund (and its investment in the
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST Underlying Fund) is speculative and involves significant risks and
potential conflicts of interest, certain of which are described in
more detail in CERTAIN RISK FACTORS below and "Certain
Risk Factors Relating to Millennium USA" and "Certain Risk
Factors Relating to an Investment in the Master Partnership" in the
Underlying Fund Memorandum.
An investment in the AlphaKeys Fund entails special tax risks. See
SUMMARY OF TERMS: "Summary of Taxation."
The Underlying Fund is not registered as an investment company
under the 1940 Act and, therefore, the AlphaKeys Fund is not able
to avail itself of the protections of the 1940 Act with respect to the
Underlying Fund.
The investment activities of the Administrator, the Underlying
Fund Manager and the portfolio managers it retains, and their
respective affiliates, for their own accounts and the other accounts
they manage, may give rise to conflicts of interest that may
disadvantage the AlphaKeys Fund. The AlphaKeys Fund's
operations may give rise to other conflicts of interest. See
POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST and "Related-Party
Transactions and Other Accounts; Conflicts" in Part Two of the
Underlying Fund Memorandum.
UBSFS acts as the principal placement agent for the AlphaKeys
Fund (in such capacity, the Placement Agent) and will bear its own
costs associated with its activities as Placement Agent. The
Administrator and the Placement Agent intend to compensate the
Placement Agent's or its affiliates' financial advisors, as well as
third-party securities dealers and other industry professionals, for
their ongoing servicing of clients with whom they have placed
Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund and such compensation will be
based upon a formula that takes into account the amount of client
assets being serviced as well as the investment results attributable
to the clients' assets in the AlphaKeys Fund.

EFTA00239218
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
II. CERTAIN RISK FACTORS
Prospective Investors should carefully consider the risks involved in an investment in the
AlphaKeys Fund and in the Underlying Fund, including, but not limited to, those discussed below.
Prospective Investors should consult their own legal, tax andfinancial advisors as to all of these
risks and an investment in the AlphaKeys Fund generally. Prospective Investors should refer to
"Certain Risk Factors Relating to Millennium USA" and "Certain Risk Factors Relating to an
Investment in the Master Partnership" in the Underlying Fund Memorandum for more detailed
risks related to the AlphaKeys Fund's investment in the Underlying Fund.
Risks Associated With the Structure of the AlphaKeys Fund
Risk of a Single Investment. The investment performance of the AlphaKeys Fund will depend
almost entirely on the performance of the Underlying Fund, over which neither the AlphaKeys
Fund nor the Administrator will have any control. The AlphaKeys Fund will not hedge the risks
of any of the Underlying Fund's investments and the Administrator does not intend to take any
defensive actions in the event of declining performance or asset losses at the Underlying Fund.
As a result, the AlphaKeys Fund's investment performance could be materially worse than would
be the case if the AlphaKeys Fund could diversify investments among asset classes or hedge
investment risks, or if the Underlying Fund itself were diversified among asset classes.
Layering of Fees and Expenses. Pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement, each
Investor shall pay to the Administrator a monthly Administrative Fee as set forth above in
SUMMARY OF TERMS: "Fees and Expenses." The Administrative Fee is in addition to and
separate from the Underlying Fund Performance Allocation, other fees and expenses of the
Underlying Fund borne by the AlphaKeys Fund due to its status as a limited partner of the
Underlying Fund, and the retention of appropriate reserves therefor as determined in the sole
discretion of the Administrator, and in addition to the fees and expenses paid to other third parties
engaged on behalf of the AlphaKeys Fund. Therefore, Investors of the AlphaKeys Fund bear two
levels of fees, and investments by Investors in the AlphaKeys Fund are not investments in the
Underlying Fund on a dollar-for-dollar basis. The returns for an investor in the Underlying Fund
will depend on the timing and actual amount invested in the Underlying Fund and the
performance thereof, as well as the timing and amount of capital contributed to the Underlying
Fund and held in Temporary Investments and the performance thereof. Investors meeting
minimum investment criteria set forth in the Underlying Fund Memorandum may invest directly
in the Underlying Fund without incurring fees and expenses of the AlphaKeys Fund; however,
direct interests in the Underlying Fund are not offered pursuant to this Memorandum or by UBS.
Different Classes of Interests may Yield Higher Levels of Compensation. The Administrator
and/or its affiliates may receive higher levels of compensation in connection with investments by
Investors in the Advisory Sub-Class Interests, on the one hand, and Investors in the Brokerage
Sub-Class Interests, on the other hand. For example, the Administrator and/or its affiliates may
receive greater compensation from the Underlying Fund in connection with Investors' indirect
investments in the Underlying Fund, and/or directly from the Investor, depending upon whether
an Investor is purchasing Advisory Sub-Class Interests or Brokerage Sub-Class Interests.
Accordingly, UBSFS and/or its affiliates may have a greater incentive to recommend an
-25-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003887
EFTA00239219
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
investment in the AlphaKeys Fund to an Investor who will invest in a class of Interests that will
yield a relatively higher level of compensation.
In addition, as clients of UBSFS, Investors who invest in the Advisory Sub-Class Interests have an
arrangement with UBSFS to directly compensate UBSFS for UBSFS's advisory services (and
may also pay account servicing fees to UBSFS). Depending upon each such Investor's assets
under management, among other factors, certain of these Investors may compensate UBSFS at
higher levels than other such Investors. Accordingly, the Administrator and/or its affiliates may
receive higher levels of compensation in connection with investments by some Investors in the
Advisory Sub-Class Interests than they receive in connection with investments by other Investors
in the Advisory Sub-Class Interests. Moreover, in certain cases, if the Investor is purchasing
Advisory Sub-Class Interests (and investing through a UBS advisory program), the Investor may
be subject to higher fees overall with respect to its AlphaKeys Fund investment than an investor
purchasing Brokerage Sub-Class Interests (and investing through a brokerage account), due to the
additional compensation paid by such Investor to the Administrator and/or its affiliates in
connection with the advisory program.
Potential Adverse Effects of Being Treated as a Single Investor in the Underlying Fund. The
AlphaKeys Fund will hold a single interest in the Underlying Fund, and each Investor's indirect
investment in the Underlying Fund will not be represented by a separate interest in the Underlying
Fund. Therefore, the Underlying Fund Performance Allocation made in respect of the AlphaKeys
Fund's investment in the Underlying Fund is based on the performance of the AlphaKeys Fund's
investment as a whole and not upon the performance of a particular Investor's indirect investment
in the Underlying Fund. Similarly, withdrawal charges, if any, charged by the Underlying Fund
and other withdrawal-related provisions may be based on the withdrawal by the AlphaKeys Fund
as a whole and not upon the withdrawal by a particular Investor. An Investor may not be able to
make a withdrawal from the AlphaKeys Fund at times and in the amounts that a direct investor in
the Underlying Fund would have been able to withdraw. As a result, an Investor's partial or
complete withdrawal from the AlphaKeys Fund may be significantly delayed compared to the
partial or complete withdrawal of a direct investor in the Underlying Fund. Additional investments
in the AlphaKeys Fund, by new or existing Investors, and withdrawals from the AlphaKeys Fund,
which will generally require additional capital contributions or withdrawals, as the case may be, to
or from the Underlying Fund, may in certain circumstances create distortions in the economic
benefits and detriments of an investment in the AlphaKeys Fund for different Investors. An
existing Investor's indirect share of a loss carryforward established with respect to a contribution
by the AlphaKeys Fund into the Underlying Fund may effectively be diluted by new capital
contributions to the AlphaKeys Fund made by other Investors or by a withdrawal from the
Underlying Fund in connection with withdrawals from the AlphaKeys Fund by other Investors.
Thus, an existing Investor's indirect share of such loss carryforward will effectively be diluted by
any new capital contributions in the AlphaKeys Fund. See "Allocation of Gains and Losses" in
Part One of the Underlying Fund Memorandum.
In addition, the Underlying Fund may issue additional classes, sub-classes or series of Underlying
Fund Interests to investors in the Underlying Fund in order to track participation in "new issues"
as defined under the rules of FINRA. Investors should be aware that even if one or more
Investors are eligible to invest in "new issues," the AlphaKeys Fund expects to invest in a class,
sub-class or series of Underlying Fund Interests which does not participate in "new issues."
-26-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003888
EFTA00239220
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
In the sole discretion of the Administrator, any withdrawal by an Investor may be subject to a
charge, as the Administrator may reasonably require, in order to defray the costs and expenses of
the AlphaKeys Fund in connection with such withdrawal, including but not limited to any
amounts paid or accrued by the AlphaKeys Fund vis-a-vis its investment in the Underlying Fund.
No Recourse Against the Underlying Fund. Investors of the AlphaKeys Fund will not be
investors in the Underlying Fund, will have no direct interest in the Underlying Fund and will
have no standing or recourse against the Underlying Fund or its affiliates, including the
Underlying Fund Manager.
No Rights to Vote or Participate. Except as otherwise described below, in the event that there is
an issue to be voted upon by the investors of the Underlying Fund, the Administrator, in its
discretion, and not the Investors, will determine how the AlphaKeys Fund's interest in the
Underlying Fund will be voted. The Administrator will determine whether the AlphaKeys Fund
should vote "yes", "no" or abstain from voting, in its sole discretion. In addition, Investors will
have no opportunity to participate directly in the day-to-day operations of the AlphaKeys Fund.
The AlphaKeys Fund expects to vote in accordance with the Administrator's recommendations on
such matters unless at least a majority of the Investors duly object. In addition, the AlphaKeys
Fund expects to refrain from voting on the selection, approval or disposition of any investment in
any depository institution or other financial company to the extent it deems advisable to do so
under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "BHC Act"). (See
"REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS-U.S. Bank Holding Company Act" below.).
Side Letters and Other Agreements with Clients. The Administrator may enter into side letters or
other similar agreements with a particular Investor without the approval of other Investors of the
AlphaKeys Fund. Any such side letter would have the effect of establishing rights under, altering
or supplementing the terms of the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement or the Investor Application with
respect to such Investor in a manner different from, and possibly more favorable to, such Investor
than those applicable to other Investors. Such rights or terms in any such side letter or similar
agreement may include, without limitation, (i) different notice periods or minimum initial and
continuing investment amounts, (ii) the agreement of the Administrator to extend certain
information rights or additional diligence, valuation or reporting rights to such Investor, including,
without limitation, to accommodate special regulatory or other circumstances of such Investor,
(iii) waiver or modification of certain confidentiality obligations of such Investor, (iv) waiver or
modification of certain fee obligations of such Investor, (v) consent of the Administrator to certain
transfers by such Investor or other exercises by the Administrator of its discretionary authority
under the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement in certain respects for the benefit of such Investor,
(vi) restrictions on, or special rights of such Investor with respect to the activities of the
Administrator and its affiliates, (vii) special rights of such Investor with respect to withdrawals,
(viii) additional obligations and restrictions on the Administrator and the AlphaKeys Fund with
respect to the structuring of investments in light of the legal, tax and regulatory considerations of
such Investor or (ix) other rights or terms necessary in light of particular legal, regulatory, public
policy or other characteristics of such Investor. The terms of any such side letter or similar
agreement will not be disclosed to other Investors unless the Administrator, in its sole discretion,
otherwise determines. Any rights or terms so established in a side letter with an Investor will
govern solely with respect to such Investor. To the extent determined appropriate by the
-27-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003889
EFTA00239221
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
AlphaKeys Fund, an Investor that enters into a side letter or other agreement may be issued a new
class, sub-class, tranche or series (or sub-series) of Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund.
Unregistered Status. None of the AlphaKeys Fund, the Underlying Master Fund nor the
Underlying Fund is registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.
The Investment Company Act provides certain protections to Investors and imposes certain
restrictions on registered investment companies, none of which will be applicable to the
AlphaKeys Fund.
Termination of the AlphaKeys Fund's Interest in the Underlying Fund. The Underlying Fund
may, among other things, force the withdrawal of the AlphaKeys Fund's interest in the
Underlying Fund at any time. In addition, the Administrator may determine at any time, subject
to the restrictions on withdrawals from the Underlying Fund, to terminate the AlphaKeys Fund's
investment in the Underlying Fund.
Repayment of Capital and Distributions. The investors and former investors of the Underlying
Fund, including the AlphaKeys Fund, shall be liable for the repayment and discharge of all debts
and obligations of the Underlying Fund attributable to any fiscal year (or relevant portion thereof)
during which they are or were investors of the Underlying Fund to the extent of their respective
interests in the Underlying Fund in the fiscal year (or relevant portion thereof) to which any such
debts and obligations are attributable. In meeting this obligation, the AlphaKeys Fund may be
required to return to the Underlying Fund any amounts actually received by it from the
Underlying Fund during or after the fiscal year to which any debt or obligation is attributable. In
addition, the AlphaKeys Fund may be required to pay to the Underlying Fund amounts that are
required to be withheld by the Underlying Fund for tax purposes. The AlphaKeys Fund may
require Investors to return to the AlphaKeys Fund all or part of any distribution by the AlphaKeys
Fund to the Investors in order to satisfy all or any portion of the AlphaKeys Fund's
indemnification obligations. Similarly, Investors may be required in certain circumstances to
repay or pay such amounts to the AlphaKeys Fund if the AlphaKeys Fund is unable otherwise to
meet its obligations or as otherwise provided in the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement.
In addition, if at any time following a withdrawal of all or a portion of an Investor's capital
account, the Administrator determines, in its sole discretion, that the amount paid to an Investor or
former Investor pursuant to such withdrawal was incorrect for any reason, including but not
limited to (i) a determination by the Administrator that the amount paid to the AlphaKeys Fund
pursuant to a withdrawal from the Underlying Fund was incorrect and the Administrator
determines, in its sole discretion, that such amount should be allocated to such Investor or former
Investor, or (ii) a determination by the Administrator, that the calculation of Net Asset Value was
incorrect at the time such amount was paid to such Investor or former Investor, the AlphaKeys
Fund may pay to such Investor or former Investor any additional amount that the Administrator
determines such Investor or former Investor should have been entitled to receive, or, in its sole
discretion, seek payment from such Investor or former Investor of the amount of any excess
payment that the Administrator determines such Investor or former Investor received, in each case
without interest, although, in its sole discretion, the Administrator may determine for any reason
or no reason that such action is not feasible or practicable. In the event that the AlphaKeys Fund
elects not to seek the payment of such amounts from an Investor or former Investor or is unable to
-28-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003890
EFTA00239222
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
collect such amounts from an Investor or former Investor, the Net Asset Value of the AlphaKeys
Fund will be less than it would have been had such amounts been collected.
Involuntary Liquidation of an Investor's Interest. The AlphaKeys Fund may terminate the interest
of any Investor in the AlphaKeys Fund at any time upon written notice to such Investor, for any
reason or for no reason at all.
Reports. The AlphaKeys Fund intends to deliver to Investors (i) audited annual financial reports
of the AlphaKeys Fund as soon as practicable after the conclusion of the AlphaKeys Fund's fiscal
year and (ii) such information as is necessary for such Investors to complete federal and state
income tax or information returns. However, the AlphaKeys Fund may deliver unaudited annual
financial reports in its sole discretion. If the AlphaKeys Fund does deliver audited reports, such
annual audit can be completed only once the AlphaKeys Fund receives audited financial
statements for the same fiscal year from the Underlying Fund. Consequently, it is possible that
audited annual financial reports of the AlphaKeys Fund may be completed later than would
otherwise be the case (up to 180 days after the fiscal year end or any other period permitted by
law). For the AlphaKeys Fund to complete its tax reporting requirements, it must receive
information on a timely basis from the Underlying Fund. If the Underlying Fund is unable to
complete its audit (or if the Underlying Fund issues a qualified audit report), the AlphaKeys Fund
will be unable to complete its own audit (or the AlphaKeys Fund will have to issue a qualified
audit report). It is expected that the AlphaKeys Fund will most likely be unable to provide tax
information to Investors without significant delays and Investors may need to seek extensions on
the time to file their tax returns at the federal, state and local level. Quarterly reports from the
Administrator regarding the AlphaKeys Fund's operations during such period also may be sent to
Investors.
Classes of Interests in both the Underlying Fund and AlphaKeys Fund, respectively, are Not
Separate Legal Entities. Although Investors of the Underlying Fund, including the AlphaKeys
Fund and certain Other AlphaKeys Millennium Funds, may hold separate classes of interests of
the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund is a single legal entity and creditors of the Underlying
Fund may enforce claims against any and all assets of the Underlying Fund. Thus, any and all
assets of the Underlying Fund may be available to meet all liabilities of the Underlying Fund,
including liabilities resulting from new issue investments, regardless of whether any particular
liability is attributable to only one or less than all classes or series of interests (e.g., currency
hedges). As an investor in the Underlying Fund, the AlphaKeys Fund may be subject to these
same risks with respect to the Underlying Fund Interests.
Similarly, although Investors may hold separate classes, sub-classes or series of Interests, the
AlphaKeys Fund is a single legal entity and its creditors may enforce claims against any and all
assets of the AlphaKeys Fund. Thus, regardless of whether an Investor holds Class A or Class B
Interests, or Brokerage Sub-Class or Advisory Sub-Class Interests (as applicable), any and all
assets of the AlphaKeys Fund may be available to meet all liabilities of the AlphaKeys Fund,
regardless of whether any particular liability is attributable to only one or less than all classes or
sub-classes of Interests.
Idle Funds. The AlphaKeys Fund may retain a portion of the subscription proceeds that will not
be invested in the Underlying Fund, to meet certain of its operating expenses.
-29-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003891
EFTA00239223
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Reserves. The AlphaKeys Fund may establish reserves for the payment of estimated, projected or
accrued expenses (including the Administrative Fee), liabilities and contingencies. Such amounts
set aside in a reserve will not be invested in the Underlying Fund (or repaid to Investors that have
otherwise withdrawn from the AlphaKeys Fund), and accordingly, will not participate in the
returns (positive or negative) of the Underlying Fund.
Limited Operating History. The AlphaKeys Fund has only a limited operating history upon which
Investors can evaluate the performance of the AlphaKeys Fund, although the Underlying Master
Fund has a performance track record that begins in 1990. Although the Administrator will receive
information from the Underlying Fund regarding its historical performance and investment
strategy, the Administrator may not be able to independently verify and has not independently
verified this information. The performance of the AlphaKeys Fund or the Underlying Fund cannot
be relied upon as an indicator of their future performance.
Liquidity Risks. Class B Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund will not be traded on any securities
exchange or other market and are subject to substantial restrictions on transfer. The ability of the
AlphaKeys Fund to honor withdrawal requests may be dependent upon the AlphaKeys Fund's
ability to make withdrawals from the Underlying Fund, which may be restricted under the
Underlying Fund Documents, delayed or suspended altogether. Furthermore, unlike other interests
in the Underlying Fund (including the interests in which the Class A Interests are invested), the
Underlying Fund's interests in which the Class B Interests are invested have no special
withdrawal rights in the event of the death, disability, adjudication of incompetency, bankruptcy,
insolvency or withdrawal from the general partner of the Underlying Master Fund of Israel A.
Englander (a "Trigger Event"), or the occurrence of any other key person event. Please see
"Other Interests; Limited Liquidity" below for additional discussion regarding differences in
withdrawal terms between Class B Interests and Other Interests.
In the sole discretion of the Administrator, any withdrawal by an Investor may be subject to a
charge, as the Administrator may reasonably require, in order to defray the costs and expenses of
the AlphaKeys Fund in connection with such withdrawal, including without limitation, any
amounts paid or accrued by the AlphaKeys Fund vis-a-vis its investment in the Underlying Fund,
withdrawal or similar charges imposed by the Underlying Fund Manager, if any (which may be
substantial). In addition, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may permit an Investor to make
withdrawals at different times, and upon different terms, than those specified in "SUMMARY OF
TERMS — Withdrawals". The Administrator may also, in its sole discretion, permit an Investor to
withdraw from the AlphaKeys Fund, or cause the AlphaKeys Fund, upon an Investor's request, to
repurchase, some or all of such Investor's Class B Interests at a discount to the Net Asset Value of
the withdrawn or repurchased Class B Interests, at a time when such Investor is not otherwise
entitled to withdraw from the AlphaKeys Fund. In addition, the Administrator may determine, in
its sole discretion, to make such an offer to one or more Investors and not to the other Investors,
and may do so without notice to the other Investors.
No Assurance of Investment Return. The AlphaKeys Fund is intended for long-term Investors
who can accept the significant risks associated with investing in illiquid securities. There can be
no assurance that either of the AlphaKeys Fund or the Underlying Fund will achieve its
investment objective. Investors should be aware that prior performance of the Underlying Fund is
not necessarily indicative of future results. The possibility of partial or total loss of AlphaKeys
Fund capital will exist, and prospective Investors should not subscribe unless they can readily bear
-30-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003892
EFTA00239224
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
the consequences of such loss. Accordingly, an investment in the AlphaKeys Fund should only be
considered by persons who can afford a loss of their entire investment.
Withdrawal Risks. With respect to withdrawal requests, Investors must notify the AlphaKeys
Fund upon the notice period set forth in "SUMMARY OF TERMS — Withdrawals" or upon such
other notice period, which may be longer, as may be notified to the Investors, in the Manager's
sole discretion. An Investor that elects to withdraw all or a portion of such Investor's capital
account will not know the amount it will receive until after the election to withdraw has been
made. It is possible that during the time period between the withdrawal notice date and the
Withdrawal Date, general economic and market conditions, or specific events affecting the
AlphaKeys Fund, could cause a decline in the value of Class B Interests.
In addition, an Investor's partial or complete withdrawal from the AlphaKeys Fund could be
limited or significantly delayed due to the operation of the Class B Gate, which would restrain the
ability of the Investor to withdraw its capital. Further, the value of such Investor's investment
may decline prior to the date on which the Investor's withdrawal is complete. As a result, the
Investor may bear or be subject to additional or increased proportionate shares of fees, costs,
expenses and liabilities that the Investor would not otherwise bear if not for the operation of the
Class B Gate. See also "CERTAIN RISK FACTORS—Other Interests; Limited Liquidity"
below. The foregoing is also separately applicable with respect to the AlphaKeys Fund's
investment in, and potential withdrawal from, the Underlying Fund.
Other Interests: Limited Liquidity. Interests of classes of the AlphaKeys Fund, including Class A
Interests, and interests of classes of Other AlphaKeys Millennium Funds (collectively, "Other
Interests") generally are significantly more liquid than the Class B Interests. Other Interests are
generally able to be withdrawn entirely on an annual basis or for a greater percentage of a holder's
interests on a quarterly basis. The exercise of such special withdrawal right by the AlphaKeys
Fund on behalf of holders of Other Interests will not result in, or be deemed to create, any special
withdrawal right for the holders of the Class B Interests (in their capacity as such). Upon the
occurrence of a Trigger Event at the Underlying Fund, holders of Class B Interests will not have
any right to withdraw any Underlying Interests in connection therewith, while holders of Other
Interests may have such right. The ability of holders of Other Interests to withdraw such Other
Interests when the holders of the Class B Interests are restricted from doing so may materially and
adversely impact the Class B Interests, including without limitation, as a result of the holders of
the Class B Interests bearing a larger portion of the expenses incurred by or on behalf of the
AlphaKeys Fund.
Additionally, Other Interests with more favorable liquidity terms may be offered to clients of
UBSFS from time to time, simultaneously with or at different times than the Class B Interests, to
the extent such Other Interests become available. Generally, the availability of the Other Interests
is limited and may depend upon withdrawals of such Other Interests from the AlphaKeys Fund or
from the Other AlphaKeys Millennium Funds. As a result, there is no guarantee that any Other
Interests would be available to any Investor, and the Investor is likely to only have access to the
Class B Interests, which provide liquidity terms that are significantly less favorable than those
applicable to the Other Interests.
-31-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003893
EFTA00239225
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
In addition to the Other Interests currently in existence, the Administrator may in the future
establish additional classes or series of shares or interests that provide holders of those shares or
interests with liquidity terms that are more favorable than those applicable to the Class B Interests.
Forward-Looking Statements. This Memorandum and the Underlying Fund Memorandum may
contain forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect the Administrator's
or the Underlying Fund Manager's view with respect to future events. Actual events could differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of factors beyond the
Administrator's or the Underlying Fund Manager's control. Prospective Investors are cautioned
not to place undue reliance on such statements.
Valuation Risk. The assets of the AlphaKeys Fund will be valued in accordance with GAAP or
another methodology determined appropriate by the Administrator in its sole discretion. Based on
current GAAP requirements, the Administrator expects to rely on valuation information provided
by the Underlying Fund (which will be unaudited, except for information as of the date of the
Underlying Fund's annual audit), which if inaccurate or incomplete could adversely affect the
Administrator's ability to determine Net Asset Value and, accordingly, value the Class B Interests
accurately. In certain circumstances, the Administrator may be required by GAAP to make
adjustments to the valuation information provided by the Underlying Fund. Absent bad faith or
manifest error, valuation determinations made by the Administrator will be conclusive and
binding.
Legal and Regulatory Risks Relating to Investment Strategy. Legal, tax and regulatory changes
could occur during the term of the AlphaKeys Fund that may adversely affect the AlphaKeys
Fund and/or the Underlying Fund. New (or revised) laws or regulations may be imposed by the
U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC"), the SEC, the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve") or other banking regulators, other U.S. or
non-U.S. governmental regulatory authorities or self-regulatory organizations, including entirely
new entities, that supervise the financial markets that could adversely affect the AlphaKeys Fund
or the Underlying Fund. In particular, these agencies are empowered to promulgate a variety of
new rules pursuant to recently enacted financial reform legislation in the United States. The
AlphaKeys Fund and the Underlying Fund may also be adversely affected by changes in the
enforcement or interpretation of existing statutes and rules by these governmental regulatory
authorities or self-regulatory organizations. The regulatory environment for private funds is
evolving, and changes in the regulation of private funds may adversely affect the value of the
investments held by the AlphaKeys Fund and/or the Underlying Fund and the ability of the
AlphaKeys Fund and/or the Underlying Fund to execute its investment strategy. The CFTC, the
SEC, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, other regulators and self-regulatory
organizations and exchanges are authorized to take extraordinary actions in the event of market
emergencies.
The regulation of private funds and financial institutions is an evolving area of law and is subject
to modification by government and judicial action. Section 13 of the BHC Act and related
regulations (known as the "Volcker Rule") restrict the ability of a banking entity, such as UBS, to
sponsor, acquire any interest in or engage in transactions with a fund, subject to certain
exceptions. The Volcker Rule could cause disruptions and otherwise negatively impact any funds
whose ownership, counterparties and/or service provider arrangements currently include a
-32-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003894
EFTA00239226
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
banking entity, including the AlphaKeys Fund and any funds in which the AlphaKeys Fund may
invest. The Administrator may in the future, in its sole discretion and without notice to the
Investors, restructure the AlphaKeys Fund or the Administrator in order to comply with laws or
regulations (including the BHC Act), or to reduce or eliminate the impact or applicability of any
bank regulatory restrictions to which the Administrator or the AlphaKeys Fund: (i) are subject, or
(ii) will be subject upon engaging in a new business transaction. The AlphaKeys Fund may also
transfer any portion of its investment in the Underlying Fund to an investment vehicle affiliated
with the Underlying Fund (including, without limitation, the Underlying Master Fund or any
parallel fund established for the AlphaKeys Fund) as permitted by the Underlying Fund, in the
Administrator's sole discretion and without prior notice or consent.
It is impossible to determine the extent of the impact of any new laws, regulations or initiatives
that may be proposed, or whether any of the proposals will become law. Compliance with any
new laws or regulations could be more difficult and expensive and may affect the manner in
which the AlphaKeys Fund and/or the Underlying Fund conducts business. Furthermore, new
laws or regulations may subject the AlphaKeys Fund, the Underlying Fund or some or all of the
Investors to increased taxes or other costs.
Tax Risks. The AlphaKeys Fund expects to be treated as a partnership for federal income tax
purposes and not as an association or a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation. It is
possible that the AlphaKeys Fund may not be able to comply with any safe harbor requirements of
or an exception to the publicly traded partnership rules in any given year, in which case it is
possible that the AlphaKeys Fund may be treated as a publicly traded partnership. If it were
determined that the AlphaKeys Fund should be treated as an association or publicly traded
partnership taxable as a corporation, the taxable income of the AlphaKeys Fund would be subject
to corporate income tax and distributions from the AlphaKeys Fund would be treated as dividends
to the extent of the AlphaKeys Fund's earnings and profits. Each of the Underlying Fund and any
applicable investment vehicles through which it may invest intend to operate as a partnership for
U.S. federal income tax purposes and not as an association or a publicly traded partnership taxable
as a corporation. If it were determined that either the Underlying Fund or any applicable
investment vehicles through which it may invest should be treated as an association or publicly
traded partnership taxable as a corporation, material adverse income tax consequences would
result to Investors in the AlphaKeys Fund.
The AlphaKeys Fund may, from time to time, report tax positions that may be subject to challenge
by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"). If the IRS challenges such a position and is
successful, there may be substantial retroactive taxes, plus interest and possibly penalties.
Changes or modifications in existing judicial decisions or in the current positions of the IRS,
either taken administratively or as contained in published revenue rulings and revenue procedures,
and the passage of new legislation (any of which may apply with retroactive effect), could
substantially reduce, eliminate or modify the tax treatment outlined in this Memorandum.
If the Underlying Fund or the Underlying Master Fund conducts business or other activities in a
given state or local jurisdiction, then an Investor that is not a resident of that jurisdiction may
nevertheless be subject to tax in that jurisdiction on its share of the AlphaKeys Fund's income
attributable to those activities and may be required to file income tax or other returns in that
-33-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003895
EFTA00239227
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
jurisdiction. Investors may also be subject to state and/or local franchise, withholding, capital
gain or other tax payment obligations and filing requirements in those jurisdictions where the
AlphaKeys Fund is regarded as doing business or earning income (directly or indirectly). See
"Certain Tax Matters Relating to an Investment in Millennium USA" and "Certain Tax Matters
Relating to the Master Partnership" in Part One of the Underlying Fund Memorandum and "TAX
ASPECTS" in this Memorandum.
Bank Holding Company Act Considerations. The Administrator is, for purposes of the BHC Act,
a subsidiary of UBS, which is subject to supervision and regulation by the Federal Reserve. It is
not expected that UBS will be deemed to control the AlphaKeys Fund for purposes of the BHC
Act. In discharging its responsibilities as the Administrator, the Administrator and the AlphaKeys
Fund will observe limitations arising from the BHC Act applicable to the Administrator or the
AlphaKeys Fund. To the extent it deems it advisable under the BHC Act, the Administrator also
intends to seek the approval from the Investors by negative consent with respect to any vote
presented by the Underlying Fund if the AlphaKeys Fund holds an interest in the Underlying Fund
of more than 24.99% of the total capital contributions to the Underlying Fund or where such
consent or waiver pertains to the selection, approval or disposition of portfolio company
investments (other than investments in depository institutions or other financial companies where
the lower threshold, noted above, would apply). The AlphaKeys Fund expects to vote in
accordance with the Administrator's recommendations on such matters unless at least a majority
of the Investors duly object. If the AlphaKeys Fund holds an interest in the Underlying Fund of
more than 24.99% of the total capital contributions to the Underlying Fund, the AlphaKeys Fund
intends to limit its participation in any depository institution or other financial company to not
more than 9.99% of any class of voting securities thereof. The Administrator intends to request
that the Underlying Fund limit the AlphaKeys Fund's ownership interest in the Underlying Fund
to not more than one-third of the total capital contributions of the Underlying Fund. In addition,
the AlphaKeys Fund expects to refrain from voting on the selection, approval or disposition of any
investment in any depository institution or other financial company to the extent it deems
advisable to do so under the BHC Act. The Administrator reserves the right to rely on any
regulatory or statutory provisions and available exemptions under the BHC Act, and to take all
reasonable steps deemed necessary, advisable or appropriate in its sole discretion for the
AlphaKeys Fund or the Administrator to comply with such regulatory or statutory
provisions. (See "REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS—U.S. Bank Holding Company Act"
below.) In the event of any change to the BHC Act, or applicable regulations and interpretations
under the BHC Act, the Administrator may, without the consent of any Investor, take such
additional steps as it deems necessary, advisable or appropriate in its sole discretion for the
AlphaKeys Fund or the Administrator to comply with the BHC Act, including restructuring the
AlphaKeys Fund or the Administrator.
There can be no assurance that the bank regulatory requirements applicable to UBS will not
likewise apply to the AlphaKeys Fund and therefore have a material adverse effect on the
AlphaKeys Fund and its operations. For example, such regulations could require the AlphaKeys
Fund to dispose of its investment in the Underlying Fund or the dissolution of the AlphaKeys
Fund earlier than anticipated by the Administrator, potentially having a negative impact on the
returns of the AlphaKeys Fund. (See "REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS—U.S. Bank
Holding Company Act" below.)

The foregoing risks do not purport to be a complete explanation of aU the risks involved in
acquiring an interest in the AlphaKeys Fund or in the Underlying Fund. Potential Investors
should read this entire document as well as the AlphaKeys Fund Agreement before making a
determination whether to invest in the AlphaKeys Fund.

III. POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Prospective Investors should carefidly consider the potential conflicts of interest involved in an
investment in the AlphaKeys Fund and in the Underlying Fund, including, but not limited to, those
discussed below. Prospective Investors should refer to "Related-Party Transactions and Other
Accounts; Conflicts" in the Underlying FundMemorandumfor more detailed conflicts ofinterest
related to an investment in the Underlying Fund.
The Administrator and its affiliates manage the assets of unregistered investment companies and
individual accounts (collectively, "AlphaKeys Clients"). The AlphaKeys Fund has no interest in
these activities. In addition, the Administrator, its affiliates, and any of their respective officers,
directors, partners, members or employees, may invest for their own accounts in various
investment opportunities, including in investment partnerships, private investment companies or
other investment vehicles in which the AlphaKeys Fund will have no interest. The Administrator,
the Placement Agent and their affiliates have a conflict of interest in that they benefit from the
sale of Class B Interests due to the receipt of the Administrative Fee, the Placement Fee and other
forms of compensation in connection with their relationship with the AlphaKeys Fund. See
"Application for Interests" below. As a result of the various payments to UBS Fund Advisor,
L.L.C., UBSFS and their respective affiliates the amount of compensation that UBS Americas'
entities receive with respect to the sale of affiliated or proprietary hedge funds, funds of funds,
private equity funds and real estate funds (including from the sale of Class B Interests in the
AlphaKeys Fund) may be greater than the amount payable to the organization as a whole from the
sale of unaffiliated fund investments. In addition, UBS AG and its affiliates ultimately benefit as
a whole from the aforementioned sale of such affiliated or proprietary funds due to incentive
and/or management fees paid to the managers of such affiliated or proprietary funds because they
are subsidiaries or affiliates of UBS AG. In addition, while there may be other funds with better
performance results and/or more preferential terms than those offered to the clients of UBSFS,
UBSFS and its affiliates can only direct clients to invest in funds (including the AlphaKeys Fund)
on the UBS platform.
The Administrator provides all of its administrative and advisory services through the efforts of
employees of its affiliate, UBSFS, which is also a registered investment adviser. All of the
Administrator's officers and other personnel are employees of UBSFS. The Administrator does
not pay overhead or payroll directly. All of the Administrator's officers and other personnel are
paid fully by UBSFS. As a result, a reallocation is made internally from the Administrator to
UBSFS to reimburse it for various expenses that UBSFS covers on behalf of the Administrator.
The officers or employees of the Administrator will be engaged in substantial activities other than
on behalf of the AlphaKeys Fund and may have conflicts of interest in allocating their time and
activity among the AlphaKeys Fund and AlphaKeys Clients. In addition, the Administrator
and/or its affiliates may now or in the future serve as administrator or placement agent to one or
more similar funds managed by the Underlying Fund Manager or an affiliate or successor thereof.
As a result, the Administrator may have conflicting interests with respect to such service. The
affiliates of the Administrator may invest (or cause their clients to invest) in one or more funds
managed by the Underlying Fund Manager, and thereby affect the AlphaKeys Fund's ability to
invest into the Underlying Fund (for example, where the size of the aggregate investment by the
affiliates and the Administrator is limited). The Administrator and their officers and employees
-36-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003898
EFTA00239230
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
will devote so much of their time to the affairs of the AlphaKeys Fund as in their judgment is
necessary and appropriate.
The Administrator may appoint a committee or an independent representative (the "Conflicts
Review Committee") to seek the approval in connection with any transactions that require
approval under the Advisers Act, including Section 206(3) thereunder, or otherwise. To the extent
permitted by law, the approval of the Conflicts Review Committee will be binding upon the
AlphaKeys Fund and each of the Investors. The Conflicts Review Committee will not participate
in the management or control of the AlphaKeys Fund. The AlphaKeys Fund may pay the
members of the Conflicts Review Committee an initial fee and a fee for each review sought by the
Administrator. The members of the Conflicts Review Committee will be treated as if they were
the Administrator for indemnification purposes.
UBSFS acts as the principal placement agent for the AlphaKeys Fund (in such capacity, the
Placement Agent) and will bear its own costs associated with its activities as Placement Agent.
The Administrator and the Placement Agent intend to compensate the Placement Agent's or its
affiliates' financial advisors, as well as third-party securities dealers and other industry
professionals, for their ongoing servicing of clients with whom they have placed Interests in the
AlphaKeys Fund and such compensation will be based upon a formula that takes into account the
amount of client assets being serviced as well as the investment results attributable to the clients'
assets in the AlphaKeys Fund. Such compensation will be payable out of the Administrative Fee.
Additionally, these entities, at their discretion, may charge Investors a Placement Fee based on the
Investor's capital contribution (including any additional capital contributions made by an
Investor).
The Administrator's ability to defer, waive or reduce the administrative fee charged to other
AlphaKeys Clients for similar services as those being provided herein may result in the
AlphaKeys Fund and its Investors paying a higher Administrative Fee for the same set of services
as those being provided to other AlphaKeys Clients at a lower fee or free of charge. In addition,
the Administrator may, in its sole and absolute discretion, defer, waive or reduce the
Administrative Fee with respect to an Investor that makes a substantial capital contribution to the
AlphaKeys Fund or that makes investments across multiple funds administered by the
Administrator and its affiliates.
While there may be other funds with better performance results and/or more preferential terms,
UBSFS and the financial advisors generally will only direct clients to invest in funds that are on
the UBS platform. In approving funds for inclusion on the UBS platform, the Administrator and
its affiliates have a conflict of interest in that they generally give priority to a fund which will
provide compensation to the Administrator and its affiliates. In addition, the levels of
compensation may vary among the funds on the UBS platform (including among the AlphaKeys
Fund and other funds on the platform managed by UBSFS), and, accordingly, the Administrator
and its affiliates may have a greater incentive to direct such clients to a fund on the UBS platform
(and, in certain cases, particular share classes) that yields higher levels of compensation for the
Administrator and/or its affiliates. Furthermore, while funds on the UBS platform (including the
Underlying Fund) may offer multiple classes of interests, such funds (together with the
Administrator or its affiliates) will determine which classes of interests are available for
-37-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003899
EFTA00239231
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
investment by the clients of the Administrator and its affiliates, which may be the classes of
interests paying higher levels of compensation to the Administrator or its affiliates.
The Placement Agent and its affiliates may provide brokerage, prime brokerage, investment
banking and other financial or advisory services from time to time to one or more accounts or
entities managed by the Underlying Fund Manager or its affiliates, for which services the
Placement Agent or such affiliates may receive compensation (all accounts other than the
AlphaKeys Fund managed by the Underlying Fund Manager or its affiliates, excluding the
Underlying Fund, are referred to collectively as the "Millennium Accounts"). The Placement
Agent or its affiliates may have an interest in an account or investment vehicle managed by, or
enter into relationships with, the Underlying Fund Manager or its affiliates on terms different, and
potentially more favorable, than an Interest in the AlphaKeys Fund. In addition, the Underlying
Fund Manager may receive research products and services in connection with the brokerage
services that the Placement Agent and its affiliates may provide from time to time to the
Underlying Fund or one or more Underlying Fund Accounts or to the AlphaKeys Fund.
The Administrator, its affiliates or AlphaKeys Clients may have an interest in an account or
investment vehicle managed by, or enter into relationships with, the Underlying Fund Manager or
its affiliates on terms different, and potentially more favorable, than a Class B Interest in the
AlphaKeys Fund. The Underlying Fund also may purchase investments from affiliates of the
Administrator, which could create a potential conflict of interest, although the Administrator will
at all times endeavor to act in the best interest of the AlphaKeys Fund. In addition, the
Underlying Fund Manager may receive research products and services in connection with the
brokerage services that the Administrator and its affiliates may provide from time to time to the
Underlying Fund or one or more Millennium Accounts or to the AlphaKeys Fund. In addition, the
Administrator intends to retain a third party technology service provider ("Service Provider") to
provide an online portal through which the AlphaKeys Fund investors will receive certain
reporting and monitoring services. The AlphaKeys Fund will bear its share of any ongoing costs,
fees and expenses related to such online portal. The Administrator, UBSFS or an affiliate may
own a non-controlling interest in such Service Provider. To the extent the Administrator, UBSFS
or an affiliate owns such interest in the Service Provider, it will financially benefit from the fees
the AlphaKeys Fund pays to the Service Provider.
In addition, certain affiliates of the Administrator may act as a lender to the Underlying Fund, the
portfolio companies in which the Underlying Fund invests or in connection with other transactions
in which the Underlying Fund is involved. In cases where the Underlying Fund is the borrower,
such UBS affiliate acting as a lender will have the ability to call capital from the Underlying Fund,
which in turn may call capital from the AlphaKeys Fund. In such cases where the Underlying
Fund's portfolio companies are the borrowers, such portfolio companies may convey a security
interest in certain assets (including assets of the Underlying Fund), to such affiliate acting as a
lender to a portfolio company of the Underlying Fund and such affiliate may have a liquidation
preference over the Underlying Fund or may have interests that are divergent from those of the
Underlying Fund. In addition, affiliates of the Administrator may purchase or sell assets to or
from the Underlying Fund.
The Administrator and/or its affiliates may receive higher levels of compensation, from the
Underlying Fund in connection with the Investors' indirect investments in the Underlying Fund,
-38-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003900
EFTA00239232
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
and/or directly from the Investor, depending upon whether an Investor is purchasing Advisory
Sub-Class Interests or Brokerage Sub-Class Interests. Accordingly, UBSFS and its affiliates may
have a greater incentive to direct clients to the AlphaKeys Fund who will invest in a class of
Interests that will yield a relatively higher level of compensation. In addition, the Administrator
and/or its affiliates may receive higher levels of compensation in connection with investments by
some Investors in the Advisory Sub-Class Interests than they receive in connection with
investments by other Investors in the Advisory Sub-Class Interests. Moreover, in certain cases, if
the Investor is purchasing Advisory Sub-Class Interests (and investing through a UBS advisory
program), the Investor may be subject to higher fees overall with respect to its AlphaKeys Fund
investment than an investor purchasing Brokerage Sub-Class Interests (and investing through a
brokerage account), due to the additional compensation paid by such Investor to the Administrator
and/or its affiliates in connection with the advisory program. See also "CERTAIN RISK
FACTORS—Different Classes of Interests may Yield Higher Levels of Compensation" above.

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
IV. BROKERAGE
Each of the AlphaKeys Fund and the Underlying Fund is directly responsible for the execution of
its portfolio investment transactions and the allocation of brokerage. Transactions on U.S. stock
exchanges and on some non-U.S. stock exchanges involve the payment of negotiated brokerage
commissions. On the great majority of non-U.S. stock exchanges, commissions are fixed. No
stated commission is generally applicable to securities traded in over-the-counter markets, but the
prices of those securities may include undisclosed commissions or mark-ups. The AlphaKeys
Fund will comply with Section 28(e) of the 1934 Act. However, the AlphaKeys Fund may not
pay the lowest available commissions or mark-ups or mark-downs on securities transactions.
Moreover, neither the Administrator or the AlphaKeys Fund have any responsibility to monitor
the Underlying Fund's policy regarding, or its compliance with, its duty of best execution,
including, if applicable, its compliance or non-compliance with the safe harbor provided by
Section 28(e). See "The Master Partnership's Investment Program and Description: Brokerage"
in Part Two of the Underlying Fund Memorandum for a description of the brokerage policies and
selection by the Underlying Fund.

V. APPLICATION FOR INTERESTS
Application Terms
Both initial and additional applications for Class B Interests may be accepted from eligible
investors (as described below) at such times as the Administrator may determine on the terms set
forth below. The AlphaKeys Fund may, in its discretion, suspend the offering of Class B Interests
at any time or permit applications on a more frequent basis. The AlphaKeys Fund, in its sole and
absolute discretion, reserves the right to reject, in whole or in part, any application for Class B
Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund. Capital contributions made prior to any closing, including the
initial closing, the timing of which will be determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator,
may be held in an escrow or similar account pending such closing at the discretion of the
Administrator. It is possible that such account will not earn interest. After the initial closing,
initial applications and additional capital contributions generally will be accepted monthly.
Generally, the minimum required initial contribution to the capital of the AlphaKeys Fund from
each Investor is $250,000, which minimum may be waived by the Administrator in its sole
discretion. Investors may make additional capital contributions in amounts not less than $50,000,
unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The AlphaKeys Fund, in
its sole discretion, may vary the investment minimums from time to time. Brokerage Sub-Class
Investors will be charged by the Placement Agent a Placement Fee of 2% of the Investor's capital
contribution (including any additional capital contributions made by an Investor) in the
AlphaKeys Fund (subject to waiver by the Placement Agent in limited circumstances). Advisory
Sub-Class Investors will not be charged a Placement Fee.
Contributions to the capital of the AlphaKeys Fund will be payable in cash. The AlphaKeys Fund
will not accept subscriptions from charitable remainder trusts. See TAX ASPECTS.
Each new Investor will be obligated to agree to be bound by all of the terms of the AlphaKeys
Fund Agreement. Each potential Investor also will be obligated to represent and warrant in the
Investor Application (defined below) that, among other things, such Investor is purchasing a Class
B Interest for its own account, and not with a view to the distribution, assignment, transfer or
other disposition of such Class B Interest.
Classes. Sub-Classes. Tranches and Series of Interests
The AlphaKeys Fund may create additional classes, sub-classes, tranches or series of Interests, or
rename or redesignate any issued class, sub-class, tranche or series, without providing prior notice
to, or receiving consent from, Investors. Such classes, sub-classes, tranches or series may differ in
terms, including, but not limited to, the amount and/or timing of fees charged (and may provide
for no fees), minimum subscription amounts and withdrawal rights. The terms of any new classes,
sub-classes, tranches or series will be determined by the Administrator.
Eligible Investors
Each prospective Investor will be required to certify that the Class B Interests being purchased are
being acquired directly or indirectly for the account of an "accredited investor" as defined in
-41-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003903
EFTA00239235
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act (each, an "Accredited Investor") and that such
Investor, as well as each of the Investor's equity owners under certain circumstances, as
applicable, at the time of purchase, is a "qualified purchase?' as defined in Section 2(aX51)(A) of
the 1940 Act (each, a "Qualified Purchaser"), unless otherwise permitted by law. Existing
Investors who purchase additional Class B Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund and transferees of
Class B Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund may be required to represent that they meet the foregoing
eligibility criteria at the time of the additional purchase or transfer. The relevant Investor
qualifications will be set forth in an investor application to be provided to prospective Investors,
which must be completed by each prospective Investor (the "Investor Application").

VL TAX ASPECTS
Certain Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations
The following is a general summary of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations
relating to an investment in the AlphaKeys Fund by prospective Investors. The discussion
herein is intended to supplement the disclosure in the Underlying Fund Memorandum. Investors
are urged to review "Certain Tax Matters Relating to an Investment in Millennium USA" and
"Certain Tax Matters Relating to the Master Partnership" in the Underlying Fund Memorandum
and to consult with their tax advisors to fully understand the tax consequences of an investment
in the AlphaKeys Fund.
This summary is based upon the Code, the U.S. Treasury regulations ("Treasury
Regulations") promulgated thereunder, published rulings, court decisions and other applicable
authorities, all as in effect on the date hereof and all of which are subject to change or differing
interpretations (possibly with retroactive effect). This summary does not purport to address all
of the U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to the AlphaKeys Fund or to
all categories of Investors, some of whom may be subject to special rules (including, without
limitation, dealers in securities or currencies, financial institutions or "financial services
entities," life insurance companies, holders of Class B Interests held as part of a "straddle,"
"hedge," "constructive sale" or "conversion transaction" with other investments, U.S. persons
whose "functional currency" is not the U.S. dollar, persons who have elected "mark to market"
accounting, persons who have not acquired their Class B Interests upon their original issuance,
persons who hold their Class B Interest through a partnership or other entity which is a pass-
through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, persons that are not U.S. Persons (as
defined below), and persons for whom a Class B Interest is not a capital asset). In addition, this
summary does not discuss any state, local or foreign tax laws that may be applicable to an
Investor. The AlphaKeys Fund has not sought a ruling from the IRS or an opinion of legal
counsel as to any tax matters, and no representation is made as to the tax consequences of an
investment in the AlphaKeys Fund.
In addition, legislation was passed in the United States at the end of 2017 that has
resulted in significant and complicated changes to the Code. Such changes, some, but not all of
which are described herein, are expected to change the manner in which the AlphaKeys Fund,
the Underlying Fund, and investors in the AlphaKeys Fund are taxed in the United States. In
addition, because regulations and other official interpretations have not yet been issued with
respect to many of such changes, their meaning may be uncertain in some cases. All investors
should consult with their tax advisors regarding the status of such legislation and its effect on
their investment in the AlphaKeys Fund.
For purposes of this discussion, a "U.S. Person" or a "U.S. Investor" is (1) a citizen or
resident of the United States, (2) a corporation, or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, created or organized under the laws of the United States or any
state thereof, including the District of Columbia, (3) an estate the income of which is subject to

an Investor other than its investment in the AlphaKeys Fund may affect the tax consequences to

Treatment as Partnership. It is intended that the AlphaKeys Fund will be treated as a
partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and not as an association or "publicly traded
partnership" taxable as a corporation. No rulings have been, or will be, requested from the IRS
and no assurance can be given that the IRS or the courts will concur with such treatment.
An entity that would otherwise be classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax
purposes may nonetheless be taxable as a corporation if it is a "publicly traded partnership."
A partnership which meets certain safe harbor requirements or certain other exceptions is not
subject to the "publicly traded partnership" rules. It is possible that the AlphaKeys Fund may
not be able to comply with any safe harbor requirements of or an exception to the publicly
traded partnership rules in any given year, in which case it is possible that the AlphaKeys Fund
may be treated as a publicly traded partnership. If it were determined that the AlphaKeys Fund
should be treated as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation, the
taxable income of the AlphaKeys Fund would be subject to corporate income tax and
distributions from the AlphaKeys Fund would be treated as dividends to the extent of the
AlphaKeys Fund's earnings and profits.
The Underlying Fund Manager intends that the Underlying Fund and the Underlying
Master Fund each will operate as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and not as
an association taxable as a corporation. In addition, the Underlying Fund Manager intends that
each of the Underlying Fund and the Underlying Master Fund will not be treated as a publicly
traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However,
because the Manager does not control the Underlying Fund and the Underlying Master Fund,
there can be no assurance in this regard. If it were determined that either the Underlying Fund or
the Underlying Master Fund should be treated as an association or publicly traded partnership
taxable as a corporation, material adverse income tax consequences would result to Investors in
the AlphaKeys Fund.
The remainder of this discussion assumes that each of the AlphaKeys Fund, the
Underlying Fund and the Underlying Master Fund will be treated as a partnership for U.S.
federal income tax purposes.
Except as discussed below in "Audits", as a partnership, the AlphaKeys Fund generally
will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax. Rather, each Investor will be required to report
on its U.S. federal income tax return, and thus to take into account in determining its own U.S.
federal income tax liability, its share of the AlphaKeys Fund's income, gains, losses, deductions
and credits for the taxable year ending with or within such Investor's taxable year. An
Investor's U.S. federal income tax liability will be determined with reference to its share of the
AlphaKeys Fund's income, regardless of whether the AlphaKeys Fund receives any
distributions from the Underlying Fund or the Investor receives any distributions from the
AlphaKeys Fund. The AlphaKeys Fund is not required, and does not intend, to make
distributions to an Investor to cover the U.S. federal income, state or other tax liability of such
Investor with respect to its allocable share of AlphaKeys Fund income and gain. Accordingly, a
non-withdrawing Investor may be required to use cash from other sources in order to pay tax on
its taxable income that is attributable to its Class B Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund.

Allocation of the AlphaKeys Fund's Profits and Losses. For U.S. federal income tax
purposes, income, gains, losses, deductions and credits of the AlphaKeys Fund will generally be
allocated to the Investors in a manner consistent with the overall economic arrangement among
the Investors. It is possible that the IRS will seek to reallocate certain items in a manner
different from the manner in which such items were allocated by the AlphaKeys Fund. The
AlphaKeys Fund may specially allocate items of taxable income and gain or loss and deduction
to a withdrawing Investor. This special allocation to or from a withdrawing Investor could
result in Investors (including the withdrawing Investor) receiving more or less items of income,
gain, deduction or loss (and/or income, gains, deductions or losses of a different character) than
they would receive in the absence of such allocations. There can be no assurance that, if the
AlphaKeys Fund makes such a special allocation, the IRS will accept such allocation. If such
allocation were successfully challenged by the IRS, the AlphaKeys Fund's income and gains
allocable to the remaining Investors could be increased or decreased.
Nature of the AlphaKeys Fund's Income and Losses. The AlphaKeys Fund's income,
gains, losses, deductions and credits for any taxable year will consist almost entirely of the
AlphaKeys Fund's share of the income, gains, losses, deductions and credits of the Underlying
Fund (which items will be derived by the Underlying Fund primarily from the Underlying
Master Fund) for the taxable year of the Underlying Fund ending with or within the AlphaKeys
Fund's taxable year.
The Underlying Fund and the Underlying Master Fund have made an election described
in Section 475(f) of the Code (the "mark-to-market election"). The mark-to-market elections
apply to all years of the Underlying Fund and the Underlying Master Fund unless revoked with
the consent of the IRS. As a result of the Underlying Fund's and the Underlying Master Fund's
mark-to-market election, the AlphaKeys Fund will generally be required to recognize ordinary
gain or loss on all of the securities held by the Underlying Master Fund and the Underlying
Fund at the end of each taxable year as if the Underlying Master Fund and the Underlying Fund
have sold such securities for their fair market value on the last business day of such taxable year
and notwithstanding that such securities may have been eligible for capital asset treatment in the
absence of the mark-to-market election. Further, any gain or loss recognized on the sale or
redemption of such securities generally would be ordinary.
Limitations on an Investor's Deduction of the AlphaKeys Fund's Losses and
Expenses. Various limitations may apply to restrict the deductibility of losses realized, and
expenses incurred, by the AlphaKeys Fund through its interest in the Underlying Fund. An
Investor's share of any such losses will be allowed only to the extent of the adjusted basis of the
Investor's Class B Interest in the AlphaKeys Fund.
Section 163(d) of the Code limits a non-corporate taxpayer's deduction for "investment
interest" to the amount of "net investment income," as defined therein. This limitation could
apply to limit the deductibility of a non-corporate Investor's indirect share of the AlphaKeys
Fund's interest deductions, as well as the deductibility of interest paid by a non-corporate
Investor on indebtedness incurred to finance his or her investment in the AlphaKeys Fund.
Otherwise allowable deductions in connection with short sales are treated as "investment
interest" for purposes of this limitation. In addition, Code Section 163(j) provides that a
taxpayer's deduction for net business interest expense (which excludes investment interest
-45-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003907
EFTA00239239
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
expense) is limited to 30% of adjusted taxable income. There are a number of uncertainties
regarding the application of Section I63(j), including its application in the context of tiered
partnerships, its application in the context of a partnership with both corporate and non-
corporate partners, and its interaction with the Section 163(d) investment interest limitation.
Some or all Investors may be affected by this new provision such that interest deductions that
would otherwise have been allowable to such Investors are disallowed. Future guidance may
provide more clarity on the operation of this rule in the context of funds like the AlphaKeys
Fund, but the timing and scope of any such guidance is uncertain.
Certain of the AlphaKeys Fund's direct expenses (including the Administrative Fee)
will, and it is possible that some or all of the AlphaKeys Fund's allocable share of the
Underlying Fund's expenses (including any management or similar fees paid by the Underlying
Fund and its share of such fees paid by the Underlying Master Fund) may, be investment
expenses rather than trade or business expenses, with the result that any non-corporate Investor
(directly or through a partnership or other pass-through entity) will not be entitled to deduct his
or her share of such investment expenses for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017 and
before January 1, 2026, and otherwise may only be entitled to deduct such expenses to the
extent that such share, together with such non-corporate Investor's other miscellaneous itemized
deductions, exceeds 2% of such non-corporate Investor's adjusted gross income. Moreover,
investment expenses are not deductible in determining income for alternative minimum tax
purposes. In addition, for tax years beginning before December 31, 2017 and on or after January
I, 2026, in the case of individuals whose adjusted gross income exceeds certain inflation-
adjusted thresholds, the aggregate itemized deductions allowable for the year will be reduced by
the lesser of (i) 3% of the excess of adjusted gross income over the applicable threshold or
(ii) 80% of the aggregate itemized deductions otherwise allowable for the taxable year
(determined after giving effect to the 2% limitation described above and any other applicable
limitations).
As a result of Revenue Ruling 2008-39 (the "Ruling"), it is possible that the IRS will
treat the Underlying Fund as an investor in securities and other assets even if the Underlying
Master Fund is properly treated as a trader in securities and other assets. In the Ruling, the IRS
concludes that, in certain circumstances, which are generally applicable to a "fund of funds"
structure, an upper tier partnership whose activities consist solely of acquiring, holding, and
disposing of interests in several lower tier partnerships will not be deemed to be engaged in a
trade or business solely as a result of the trade or business conducted by the lower tier
partnership and that the fees paid by the upper tier partnership constitute miscellaneous items
deductions subject to limitations described above. The Ruling does not clearly address the
treatment of the upper tier partnership and management fees charged by the upper tier
partnership in a "master feeder" structure. If this structure is within the rationale of the Ruling,
the expenses charged at the Underlying Fund level will be treated as miscellaneous itemized
deductions subject to limitations described above.
Expenses that are attributable to the offering and sale of interests in the AlphaKeys Fund
must be capitalized and cannot be deducted or amortized. The AlphaKeys Fund will be deemed
to have made an election to amortize organizational expenses over a 180-month period for tax
purposes unless the AlphaKeys Fund timely elects to capitalize such expenses. Prospective
-46-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003908
EFTA00239240
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Investors are urged to consult their own tax advisors with regard to these and other limitations
on their ability to deduct losses and expenses with respect to the AlphaKeys Fund.
Passive Activity Rules. The Code restricts the deductibility of losses from a "passive
activity" against certain income not derived from a passive activity. This restriction applies to
individuals, personal service corporations and certain closely held corporations. Pursuant to
temporary Treasury Regulations, income or loss derived by the AlphaKeys Fund from the
securities portfolio of the Underlying Fund and the Underlying Master Fund generally will not
constitute income or loss from a passive activity. Therefore, passive losses from other sources
generally could not be deducted against an Investor's share of such income and gain. However,
there can be no assurance in this regard and it is possible that some or all of the income of the
AlphaKeys Fund may constitute passive income or loss.
Excess Business tosses. Under current law, taxpayers other than corporations are not
permitted to deduct "excess business losses," very generally defined to be net losses attributable
to trades or business of the taxpayer that exceed certain threshold amounts. In the case of
partnerships, the limitation is applied at the partner level and each partner must take into
account its allocable share of partnership income, gain, deductions and losses from trades or
businesses of the partnership for purposes of calculating its excess business loss, if any. The
limitation on deductibility of excess business losses is applied after the limitation on passive
losses described above. The limitations on deductions of "excess business losses" may limit the
deductibility of certain of the AlphaKeys Fund's losses. Any losses disallowed as a result of this
limitation may be carried forward to future years, subject to certain limitations.
U.S. Tax-Exempt Investors. Tax-exempt organizations are generally subject to U.S.
federal income tax on a net basis on their unrelated business taxable income ("UBTI"). UBTI is
defined generally as any gross income derived by a tax-exempt organization from an unrelated
trade or business that it regularly carries on, less the deductions directly connected with that
trade or business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, UBTI generally does not include any
dividend income, interest income (or certain other categories of passive income) or capital gains
recognized by a tax-exempt organization so long as such income is not debt-financed, as
discussed below. UBTI also includes certain insurance income derived by controlled foreign
corporations if a tax-exempt organization is a United States shareholder with respect to such
corporation.
A tax-exempt entity deriving gross income characterized as UBTI that exceeds $1,000 in
any taxable year is obligated to file a federal income tax return, even if it has no liability for that
year as a result of deductions against such gross income, including an annual $1,000 statutory
deduction.
The exclusion from UBTI for dividends, interest (or other passive income) and capital
gains does not apply to income from "debt-financed property," which is treated as UBTI to the
extent of the percentage of such income that the average acquisition indebtedness with respect
to the property bears to the average tax basis of the property for the taxable year. Gain
attributable to the sale of previously debt-financed property continues to be subject to these
rules for 12 months after any acquisition indebtedness is satisfied. If the AlphaKeys Fund, the
Underlying Fund or the Underlying Master Fund incurs acquisition indebtedness, a tax-exempt
U.S. Investor would be deemed to have acquisition indebtedness equal to its allocable portion of
-47-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003909
EFTA00239241
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
such acquisition indebtedness. If a tax-exempt U.S. Investor incurs indebtedness to acquire its
Class B Interest, such indebtedness generally would also be treated as acquisition indebtedness.
As a result of recent changes to the Code, UBTI is generally required to be calculated
separately for each unrelated trade or business of a tax-exempt investor, which may limit the
ability of a tax-exempt investor to offset its unrelated business taxable income or losses, if any,
attributable to an investment made by the AlphaKeys Fund or the Underlying Fund against its
unrelated business taxable income or losses from certain of its other activities (including,
potentially, another investment made by the AlphaKeys Fund or the Underlying Fund). There
continues to be uncertainty regarding these rules and tax-exempt investors should consult their
own tax advisors regarding such recent changes and its effect on their investment in the
AlphaKeys Fund.
The Underlying Fund Memorandum provides that a portion of the Underlying Fund's
income may be treated as UBTI, and therefore the AlphaKeys Fund may generate UBTI as well
(which will be significant if the Underlying Fund generates significant UBTI, as it has in
previous years).
The potential for having income characterized as UBTI may have a significant
effect on any investment by a tax-exempt entity in the AlphaKeys Fund and may make
investment in the AlphaKeys Fund unsuitable for some tax-exempt entities. Tax-exempt
entities (including IRAs) are responsible for paying any required federal taxes as a result
of deriving UBTI. UBTI generated from this investment may also be subject to state and
local taxes. Investors that are tax-exempt entities (including IRAs) are responsible for any
tax filings and related costs referred to above. Tax-exempt Investors should consult their
own tax advisors regarding all aspects of UBTI.
Withdrawal of Investors. In general, when an Investor withdraws from the AlphaKeys
Fund, the withdrawing Investor will recognize gain only as and after the cash (or certain
marketable securities) distributed upon withdrawal exceeds the Investor's adjusted tax basis in
its Class B Interest. A withdrawing Investor that receives only cash on a complete withdrawal
from the AlphaKeys Fund will recognize a loss to the extent that its adjusted tax basis in its
Class B Interest exceeds such cash. Any such loss may be recognized only after such Investor
has received full payment in respect of its withdrawal amount. If an Investor withdraws less
than its entire Class B Interest, the Investor will not recognize a loss, if any, until its Class B
Interest is completely withdrawn. Any capital gain or loss recognized will be short-term, long-
term, or some combination of both, depending upon the timing of the Investor's contributions to
the AlphaKeys Fund.
Moreover, in connection with a withdrawal from the AlphaKeys Fund, an Investor will
generally recognize ordinary income or loss attributable to the Investor's indirect share of
certain assets of the AlphaKeys Fund described in Section 751(c) of the Code. In addition,
Investors will generally recognize ordinary income or loss in connection with a withdrawal from
the AlphaKeys Fund as a result of the Underlying Fund's and Underlying Master Fund's mark-
to-market election. Investors should consult their own tax advisors about the character of any
gain or loss recognized on withdrawal from the AlphaKeys Fund.
-48-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003910
EFTA00239242
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
As discussed above, the AlphaKeys Fund may specially allocate items of taxable income
and gain or loss and deduction to a withdrawing Investor. This special allocation to or from a
withdrawing Investor could result in Investors (including the withdrawing Investor) receiving
more or less items of income, gain, deduction or loss (and/or income, gains, deductions or losses
of a different character) than they would receive in the absence of such allocations.
Adjustments to Basis of AlphaKeys Fund Assets. The AlphaKeys Fund Agreement
authorizes the Administrator in its capacity as the Manager to make an election to adjust the tax
basis of the AlphaKeys Fund's assets in the event of a transfer of a Class B Interest or of certain
distributions by the AlphaKeys Fund. The Underlying Fund Documents contain similar
provisions. Such election to adjust tax basis, once made, cannot be revoked without the consent
of the IRS. Because of the complexity and added expense of the tax accounting required to
implement such election, the Administrator, on behalf of the AlphaKeys Fund, and the
Underlying Fund Manager on behalf of the Underlying Fund (according to the Underlying Fund
Memorandum), presently do not intend to make this election. In certain circumstances,
however, the AlphaKeys Fund or the Underlying Fund, or both, may be required to reduce the
tax basis of their assets as a result of a transfer of a Class B Interest or as a result of certain
distributions. Transferors and transferees of Class B Interests, and Investors making
withdrawals from the AlphaKeys Fund, will in certain circumstances be required to provide
information to the Administrator to enable the AlphaKeys Fund to comply with this
requirement.
Information Returns and Schedules. Investors will be furnished information on
Schedule K-1 for preparation of their respective U.S. federal income tax returns. The furnishing
of such information is subject to, among other things, the timely receipt by the AlphaKeys Fund
of information from the Underlying Fund. It is expected that the AlphaKeys Fund's
Schedule K-ls will most likely not be available prior to April 15 (and may be available
significantly later than April 15) and, accordingly, Investors would need to obtain
extensions for the filing of their individual tax return.
Audits. The Administrator, in its capacity as the Manager of the AlphaKeys Fund, or an
affiliate thereof, will be designated as the AlphaKeys Fund's "tax matters partner" and/or
"partnership representative."
The tax treatment of income and deductions of the Underlying Fund generally will be
determined at the Underlying Fund level in a single proceeding, which the tax matters partner or
partnership representative of the Underlying Fund will control, rather than by individual audits
of the members of the Underlying Fund, including the AlphaKeys Fund. Similarly, the tax
treatment of income and deductions of the AlphaKeys Fund generally will be determined at the
AlphaKeys Fund level in a single proceeding, which the Administrator as tax matters partner
and/or partnership representative of the AlphaKeys Fund will control, rather than by individual
audits of the Investors of the AlphaKeys Fund. If the IRS audits the Underlying Fund's or the
AlphaKeys Fund's tax returns, however, an audit of the Investors' own returns may result.
Under partnership audit procedures which generally apply to taxable years of a
partnership beginning on or after January 1, 2018 (unless the partnership elects to apply the
rules for an earlier year), upon an audit of the AlphaKeys Fund, any adjustments to items of
income, gain, loss, deduction or credit of the AlphaKeys Fund (and any Investor's distributive
-49-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003911
EFTA00239243
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
share thereof), shall be determined at the partnership level, and, unless certain elections are
made, the AlphaKeys Fund will be liable for paying an imputed underpayment of tax based on
such adjustments and associated penalties and interest. Adjustments reallocating the distributive
share of an item from one Investor to another will not be netted; instead, the imputed
underpayment of tax in that case will be calculated without taking into account the decrease in
an Investor's share of income or gain or the increase in an Investor's share of deduction or
credit. Any imputed underpayment of tax generally would be assessed in the year the adjustment
is finalized rather than the audited year and the amount of such tax generally would be
determined using the highest statutory rates, ignoring Investor-level attributes. As a result, some
or all of the Investors (including, without limitation, Investors who were not Investors during
the audited year) might economically bear a greater amount of imputed tax (and associated
penalties and interest) than the tax they would have borne if the adjustment had passed through
to the Investors.
Under certain circumstances, the AlphaKeys Fund might be able to demonstrate that the
imputed underpayment of tax should be reduced with respect to specific Investors. Establishing
such a reduction might require that Investors file amended returns, and pay tax, interest and
penalties. There can be no guarantee that the AlphaKeys Fund will be able to (or if it is able to,
will choose to) take any such actions to reduce the imputed underpayment of tax. Alternatively,
the AlphaKeys Fund could elect to have taxes (and any associated interest and penalties) in
respect of adjustments assessed and collected at the Investor level by issuing statements of
adjustment to the persons who were Investors during the audited year. In such case, the audited
year Investors would be required to pay any additional tax attributable to their share of such
adjustments as an additional tax for the taxable year in which the statements are provided.
Investors may be required to pay interest (at an increased rate) and penalties as a result of such
adjustments. There can be no guarantee that the AlphaKeys Fund will or will not make such an
election, or that such an election, if made, would not result in a greater economic cost for a
particular Investors. The partnership audit rules will also apply to an audit of the Underlying
Fund. While the Treasury Department has issued proposed and temporary final Treasury
Regulations implementing these rules, there continues to be substantial uncertainty regarding
certain aspects of the rules and their interpretation and future guidance is expected. All Investors
should consult their own tax advisers regarding possible implications of these rules.
Reporting and Listing Requirements. A direct or indirect participant in any "reportable
transaction" may be required to disclose certain information in respect of such participation and
such transaction to the IRS on IRS Form 8886. For purposes of the disclosure rules, a partner,
in certain cases, may be treated as a participant in a reportable transaction in which its
partnership participates. It is possible that the Underlying Fund and/or the AlphaKeys Fund will
participate in one or more reportable transactions, and the AlphaKeys Fund and certain or all of
the Investors may be required to report these transactions on IRS Form 8886. In addition, a
withdrawal from the AlphaKeys Fund will be reportable by the withdrawing Investor if the
Investor recognizes a loss on the withdrawal that equals or exceeds an applicable threshold
amount. Failure to comply with the reporting requirements gives rise to substantial penalties.
Certain states, including New York, may also have similar disclosure requirements. Investors
should consult their tax advisors to determine whether filing Form 8886 in accordance with the
disclosure rules is required. In addition, if the AlphaKeys Fund engages in certain tax shelter
-50-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003912
EFTA00239244
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
transactions, tax-exempt investors may be subject to additional tax and reporting requirements.
Prospective Investors are urged to consult their own tax advisors with regard to these rules.
FATCA. Very generally and with limited exceptions, pursuant to Section 1471 through
1474 of the Code and any current and future guidance thereunder ("FATCA"), if an investor
fails to meet certain requirements, including information, diligence and/or reporting
requirements, that are mandated by FATCA, certain U.S. source income and potentially certain
non-U.S. source income attributable to such investor will, in general, be subject to a 30%
withholding tax. The U.S. source income with respect to which the 30% withholding applies
includes interest (including original issue discount), whether or not the interest would qualify as
"portfolio interest", dividends, compensation and gross proceeds realized upon the sale or other
disposition of any property which can produce U.S. source interest or dividends ("Withholdable
Payments"). The withholding tax is currently in effect with respect to payments other than
gross proceeds and is expected to be in effect with respect to withholding on gross proceeds
beginning after December 31, 2018.
The AlphaKeys Fund will withhold at a 30% rate on Withholdable Payments (and
potentially on payments of non-U.S. source income) attributable to an Investor if the Investor
fails to provide the AlphaKeys Fund with sufficient information, certification or documentation
that is required under FATCA, including information, certification or documentation necessary
for the AlphaKeys Fund to (i) determine if the Investor is a non-U.S. Investor or a U.S. Investor
and, if it is a non-U.S. Investor, if the non-U.S. Investor has "substantial United States owners"
and/or is in compliance with (or meets an exception from) FATCA requirements and (ii) comply
with the withholding requirements of FATCA. The AlphaKeys Fund, the Underlying Fund and
the Underlying Master Fund may disclose the information, certifications or documentation
provided by investors to the IRS, the Treasury or other parties as necessary to comply with
FATCA.
Furthermore, the Underlying Master Fund will be subject to a 30% withholding tax with
respect to Withholdable Payments and potentially certain non-U.S. source income if it fails to
timely enter into and continue to comply with a valid agreement with the Secretary of the
Treasury in which the Underlying Master Fund agrees to obtain and verify certain information
from each of its investors and comply with annual reporting requirements with respect to certain
direct or indirect U.S. investors ("FFI Agreement"), if applicable, does not comply with the
requirements of an applicable intergovernmental agreement and any implementing non-U.S.
laws and regulations, or does not otherwise qualify for an exception from the foregoing
requirements. In this respect, the Cayman Islands and the United States on November 29, 2013
entered into an intergovernmental agreement with respect to FATCA implementation (the
"Cayman IGA"), under which the Underlying Master Fund may be required to obtain and
provide to the Cayman Islands government certain information from each of its investors and
meet certain other requirements. If the Underlying Master Fund complies with its obligations
under the Cayman IGA, the Underlying Master Fund generally will not be subject to
withholding under FATCA (and, for the avoidance of doubt, will not be required to enter into an
FFI Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, such withholding tax may still be applicable
unless each applicable member of the same expanded affiliated group, if any, as the Underlying
Master Fund also enters into and complies with the FFI Agreement, applicable
intergovernmental agreement or qualifies for an exception. The economic returns from the
-51-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003913
EFTA00239245
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Underlying Master Fund may be significantly reduced as a result of withholding tax unless it
complies with or satisfies an exemption from the requirements described above.
Any investor (including the Underlying Fund) that fails to provide the Underlying
Master Fund with the required information could, generally, be subject to the 30% withholding
tax on the U.S. source payments described above and, possibly, on a portion of non-U.S. source
payments, and in some cases, the Underlying Master Fund could require an investor to withdraw
from the Underlying Fund.
The scope of some of the requirements of and exceptions from FATCA are complex and
remain potentially subject to material changes resulting from additional IRS guidance. Investors
are urged to consult their advisers about the FATCA rules (some but not all of which are
described above) that may be relevant to their investment in the AlphaKeys Fund. In addition,
certain other countries have passed or may in the future pass legislation similar to FATCA,
which may impact the AlphaKeys Fund, the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Master Fund and
the Investors.
All Investors are urged to consult their advisers about the implication of the FATCA
requirements or the implications of legislation similar to FATCA for the AlphaKeys Fund and
the Investors.
Medicare Contribution Tax. The Code imposes a 3.8% Medicare contribution tax on the
"net investment income" (as defined in Section 1411 of the Code and the regulations
thereunder) of individuals whose income exceeds certain threshold amounts and of certain trusts
and estates under similar rules. Investors are advised to consult their tax advisers regarding the
possible implications of this additional tax on their investment in the AlphaKeys Fund.
Certain Federal Tax Considerations for Non-U.S. Investors. The U.S. federal income
tax treatment of a nonresident alien, non-U.S. corporation, non-U.S. partnership, non-U.S. estate
or non-U.S. trust, each a "non-U.S. investor," investing in the AlphaKeys Fund is complex and
will vary depending upon the circumstances and activities of the non-U.S. investor, the
AlphaKeys Fund, the Underlying Fund, and the Underlying Master Fund. An investment in the
AlphaKeys Fund may cause such non-U.S. investors to be subject to a withholding tax, tax on a
net basis and to be required to file U.S. federal income tax returns (and could also subject such
person to U.S. state and local tax and return filing requirements). Each non-U.S. investor is
urged to consult with its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. and non-U.S. tax treatment of an
investment in the AlphaKeys Fund.
Implications of Non-U.S. Investments
Certain non-U.S. investments of the Underlying Fund and the Underlying Master Fund,
including investments in "controlled foreign corporations" and "passive foreign investment
companies" ("PFICs") may cause an Investor to recognize taxable income prior to the AlphaKeys
Fund's receipt of distributable proceeds, pay an interest charge on receipts that are deemed to have
been deferred or recognize ordinary income that otherwise would have been treated as capital
gain.
-52-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003914

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
The Underlying Fund and the Underlying Master Fund may make investments that subject
the AlphaKeys Fund and/or the Investors directly or indirectly to taxation and/or tax-filing
obligations in non-U.S. jurisdictions, including withholding taxes on dividends, interest and
proceeds. In particular, the Underlying Fund's and the Underlying Master Fund's non-U.S.
investments may cause some of the income or gains of the AlphaKeys Fund to be subject to
withholding or other taxes of non-U.S. jurisdictions, and could result in taxation on net income
attributed to the jurisdiction if the AlphaKeys Fund were considered to be conducting a trade or
business in the applicable country through a permanent establishment or otherwise. Such non-
U.S. taxes and/or tax filing obligations may be reduced or eliminated by applicable income tax
treaties, although Investors should be aware that the AlphaKeys Fund may not be entitled to claim
reduced withholding rates on non-U.S. taxes or may choose not to assert any such claim. The tax
consequences to Investors may depend in part on the activities and investments of the AlphaKeys
Fund, as well as the Underlying Fund and the Underlying Master Fund. Accordingly, the
AlphaKeys Fund will be limited in its ability to avoid adverse non-U.S. tax consequences
resulting from the AlphaKeys Fund's underlying investments. Furthermore, some Investors may
not be eligible for certain or any treaty benefits. Subject to applicable limitations, an Investor may
be entitled to claim, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a credit for its allocable share of certain
non-U.S. income taxes incurred by the AlphaKeys Fund, including certain withholding taxes, so
long as such non-U.S. tax qualifies as a creditable income tax under the applicable Treasury
Regulations. Alternatively, an Investor may be able to deduct (subject to certain limitations) its
share of such non-U.S. taxes for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
In general, Investors that are U.S. persons may be required to report to the IRS transfers of
property or cash by the Underlying Fund to a non-U.S. corporation or partnership (such as the
Underlying Master Fund), in exchange for interests in such non-U.S. entities and may be required
to file information returns with the IRS with respect to non-U.S. investments made by the
Underlying Fund and the Underlying Master Fund.
Investors that are U.S. persons may also be subject to filing requirements with respect to
the AlphaKeys Fund's investment in a non-U.S. corporation classified as a PFIC regardless of the
size of the Investor's investment. Investors should consult with their own tax advisers with respect
to this new reporting requirement and any other reporting requirement that may apply.
For additional information regarding the tax considerations of non-U.S. investments,
including Cayman Islands tax considerations that may apply to an investment in the AlphaKeys
Fund, Investors are strongly urged to refer to "Certain Tax Matters Relating to an Investment in
Millennium USA" and "Certain Tax Matters Relating to the Master Partnership" in Appendix A
and to consult with their own tax advisers.
State and Local Tax Considerations
In addition to the U.S. federal income tax consequences described above, prospective
Investors should consider the potential state and local tax consequences of an investment in the
AlphaKeys Fund. In particular, Investors may be subject to state and local taxes in jurisdictions
in which the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Master Fund or the AlphaKeys Fund acquires
certain investments or conducts its activities and may be required to file tax returns in those
jurisdictions. In certain jurisdictions, the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Master Fund and/or
the AlphaKeys Fund may be required to withhold certain state and/or local or other taxes on
behalf of Investors. State and local tax laws may differ from U.S. federal income tax laws with
-53-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003915
EFTA00239247
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
respect to the treatment of specific items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit.
Prospective Investors should consult their tax advisors with respect to the state, local and non-
U.S. tax consequences of an investment in the AlphaKeys Fund.
Future Changes in Tax Law
Legislation was passed in the United States at the end of 2017 that has resulted in
significant and complicated changes to the Code. Such changes may affect the manner in which
the AlphaKeys Fund, the Underlying Fund and the Investors are taxed in the United States.
There are significant uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of those recent
legislative changes. Additional guidance is expected; however, the timing, form, scope and
content of such guidance are not known. In addition, other legislation could be enacted which
could substantially affect how the AlphaKeys Fund and the Investors are taxed. Prospective
investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding the status of any such proposed
changes and the effect, if any, on their investment in the AlphaKeys Fund.
For additional information regarding the taxation of the AlphaKeys Fund, the Underlying
Fund and the Underlying Master Fund, investors are strongly urged to refer to "Certain
Tax Matters Relating to an Investment in Millennium USA" and "Certain Tax Matters
Relating to the Master Partnership" in the Underlying Fund Memorandum.
Importance of Obtaining Professional Advice
The foregoing analysis is not intended as a substitute for careful tax planning.
Accordingly, prospective Investors in the AlphaKeys Fund are strongly urged to consult their
tax advisors with specific reference to their own situations regarding the possible tax
consequences of an investment in the AlphaKeys Fund.

VII. CERTAIN ERISA AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
The following section sets forth certain issues and consequences under ERISA, Section 4975 of
the Code and the Plan Assets Rules, which a fiduciary of a "Benefit Plan Investor" (as defined in
the Plan Assets Rules and described below) who has investment discretion (a "Fiduciary") should
consider before deciding to invest such Benefit Plan Investor's assets in the AlphaKeys Fund.
Furthermore, all potential Investors should read the following disclosure because it describes
certain possible limitations on the operation of the AlphaKeys Fund that may result from
participation in the AlphaKeys Fund by Benefit Plan Investors. The following summary is not
intended to be complete, but only to address certain questions under ERISA, the Code and the
Plan Assets Rules relating to an investment in the AlphaKeys Fund.
The term "Benefit Plan Investor" is defined under the Plan Assets Rules and generally includes
(i) "employee benefit plans" (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that are subject to the fiduciary
responsibility provisions of ERISA, (ii) "plans" (as defined in Section 4975(eX I) of the Code)
that are subject to Section 4975 of the Code, and (iii) entities that are deemed to be holding the
assets of such an "employee benefit plan" or "plan" for purposes of ERISA and/or Section 4975 of
the Code (but only to the extent of the percentage of the equity interests in such entity that are
held by Benefit Plan Investors).
ERISA and the Code impose certain duties on persons who are Fiduciaries of Benefit Plan
Investors. Under these rules, any person who exercises any discretionary authority or control over
the management or disposition of the assets of a Benefit Plan Investor, or renders investment
advice for a fee, directly or indirectly, is a Fiduciary with respect to the Benefit Plan Investor.
The Administrator will require a Benefit Plan Investor which proposes to invest in the AlphaKeys
Fund to represent that it, and any Fiduciaries responsible for such Benefit Plan Investor's
investments, are aware of and understand the AlphaKeys Fund's investment objective, policies
and strategies and that the decision to invest "plan assets" in the AlphaKeys Fund was made with
appropriate consideration of relevant investment factors with regard to the Benefit Plan Investor
and is consistent with the duties and responsibilities imposed upon Fiduciaries with regard to their
investment decisions under ERISA and/or the Code.
Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code prohibit a Benefit Plan Investor from
engaging in certain transactions involving "plan assets" with parties that are "parties in interest"
under ERISA or "disqualified persons" under the Code with respect to the Benefit Plan Investor,
unless the transaction is covered by a statutory exemption or a class or private exemption issued
by the Department of Labor. Certain prospective Benefit Plan Investors may currently maintain
relationships with the Administrator or other entities which are affiliated with the Administrator.
Each of such persons may be deemed to be a party in interest or disqualified person to and/or a
Fiduciary of any Benefit Plan Investor to which it provides investment management, investment
advisory or other services. ERISA prohibits (and the Code penalizes) the use of "plan assets" for
the benefit of a party in interest and also prohibits (or penalizes) a Fiduciary from using its
position to cause a Benefit Plan Investor to make an investment from which it or certain third
parties in which such Fiduciary has an interest would receive a fee or other consideration. Benefit
Plan Investors should consult with their own counsel to determine if participation in the
AlphaKeys Fund is a transaction which is prohibited by ERISA or the Code. Except with respect
to the assets of any Investor used to purchase the Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund which are
-55-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003917
EFTA00239249
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
invested as part of the Investor's participation in the UBSFS Advisory Program, Fiduciaries of
Benefit Plan Investors will be required to represent that the decision to invest in the AlphaKeys
Fund was made by them as Fiduciaries (independent of such affiliated persons), that such
Fiduciaries are duly authorized to make such investment decision and that they have not relied on
any individualized advice or the recommendation of such affiliated persons, as a primary basis for
the decision to invest in the AlphaKeys Fund.
The Plan Assets Rules provide when the assets of an entity such as the AlphaKeys Fund will be
deemed to include "plan assets" as a result of an investment therein by Benefit Plan Investors.
The Plan Assets Rules generally provide, in relevant part, that the underlying assets of an entity
(that is neither a publicly-offered security nor a security issued by a company registered under the
Investment Company Act) in which a Benefit Plan Investor makes an equity investment will be
deemed, for purposes of ERISA, to be assets of the investing Benefit Plan Investor, unless
(i) interests in each class of equity interests of the entity held by Benefit Plan Investors are not
considered "significant" (as determined under the Plan Assets Rules) or (ii) the entity qualifies as
an "operating company" (as defined in the Plan Assets Rules).
Under the Plan Assets Rules, equity participation in an entity will be considered "significant" on
any date if, immediately after the most recent acquisition of any equity interest in the entity, 25%
or more of the value of any class of its equity interests is held in the aggregate by Benefit Plan
Investors (calculated after disregarding the value of any equity interests held by non-Benefit Plan
Investors (or any affiliates thereof) who either (i) have discretionary authority or control with
respect to the assets of the entity, or (ii) provide direct or indirect investment advice to the entity
for a fee).
The Administrator will use reasonable efforts to limit investment in each class of Interests in the
AlphaKeys Fund by Benefit Plan Investors to a level that would not be considered "significant"
(as defined in the Plan Assets Rules), in order to prevent the AlphaKeys Fund from being treated
as holding "plan assets" (within the meaning of the Plan Assets Rules) subject to ERISA and/or
Section 4975 of the Code. If at any time the Administrator determines that equity participation in
the AlphaKeys Fund by Benefit Plan Investors would be considered "significant" (as defined in
the Plan Assets Rules), the Administrator will be permitted to cause one or more Benefit Plan
Investors to withdraw or reduce their Interests to the extent necessary so that equity participation
in the AlphaKeys Fund by Benefit Plan Investors would not be considered "significant" (as
defined in the Plan Assets Rules). For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrator will treat all
tranches or series (or sub-classes or sub-series thereof) in each designated class of the AlphaKeys
Fund as constituting single classes of equity interests for purposes of the Plan Assets Rules;
however the Plan Assets Rules do not specify what constitutes a "class" of equity interests, and
there is no guarantee that the U.S. Department of Labor would treat the tranches or series (or sub-
class, sub-tranche or sub-series) within a class as a single class of equity interests for purposes of
the Plan Assets Rules.
If the assets of the AlphaKeys Fund were determined to be "plan assets" under the Plan Assets
Rules, there could be a number of adverse consequences under ERISA and the Code. For
example, (i) if the AlphaKeys Fund were to engage in a transaction with a "party in interest" or
"disqualified person" with respect to any Benefit Plan Investor investing in the AlphaKeys Fund
which is not exempt under ERISA and/or the Code (such as borrowing from an entity which is an
-56-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003918
EFTA00239250
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
affiliate of the sponsor of the Benefit Plan Investor or the leasing of property to an affiliate of a
sponsor of the Benefit Plan Investor), the transaction would be prohibited under ERISA and/or the
Code (and therefore subject to rescission), and such affiliate, the trustee of the Benefit Plan
Investor and the Administrator could be subject to sanctions; (ii) under ERISA, the trustee of a
Benefit Plan Investor (that is subject to ERISA) will be subject to liability for any losses arising
from a breach of fiduciary duty, except where the breach is caused by a Fiduciary who is an
appointed investment manager or who is specifically named in the plan document governing the
Benefit Plan Investor; (iii) the Administrator could be deemed to be a Fiduciary of investing
Benefit Plan Investors and the trustee of such Benefit Plan Investors that are subject to ERISA
could be liable for losses because of the delegation of investment discretion to the Administrator
without the benefit of an investment management agreement or plan designation; and (iv) any
Fiduciary that exercises discretion to cause such Benefit Plan Investor to invest in the AlphaKeys
Fund could be liable as a co-Fiduciary.
A BENEFIT PLAN INVESTOR AND ITS FIDUCIARY MUST CONSULT THEIR OWN
LEGAL AND FINANCIAL ADVISORS BEFORE INVESTING IN THE ALPHAKEYS FUND
AND FULLY INFORM THEMSELVES AS TO ALL PAYMENTS MADE IN CONNECTION
WITH THE OPERATION OF THE ALPHAKEYS FUND. BY INVESTING IN THE
ALPHAKEYS FUND, THE FIDUCIARY SIGNIFIES ITS INFORMED CONSENT TO ALL
SUCH PAYMENTS BY THE ALPHAKEYS FUND TO THE RECIPIENTS THEREOF AND
TO THE RISKS INVOLVED IN INVESTING IN THE ALPHAKEYS FUND.
The foregoing statements regarding the consequences under ERISA, the Code and the Plan Assets
Rules of an investment in the AlphaKeys Fund, are based on the provisions of ERISA, the Code
and the Plan Assets Rules as currently in effect and the existing administrative and judicial
interpretations thereunder. No assurance can be given that administrative, judicial or legislative
changes will not occur that will make the foregoing statements incorrect or incomplete.
ACCEPTANCE OF SUBSCRIPTIONS ON BEHALF OF A BENEFIT PLAN INVESTOR IS IN
NO RESPECT A REPRESENTATION BY THE ADMINISTRATOR OR ANY OTHER PARTY
RELATED TO THE ALPHAKEYS FUND THAT THIS INVESTMENT MEETS THE
RELEVANT LEGAL REQUIREMENTS WITH RESPECT TO INVESTMENTS BY ANY
PARTICULAR BENEFIT PLAN INVESTOR OR THAT THIS INVESTMENT IS
APPROPRIATE FOR ANY PARTICULAR BENEFIT PLAN INVESTOR. THE FIDUCIARY
WITH INVESTMENT DISCRETION OVER THE ASSETS OF A BENEFIT PLAN INVESTOR
SHOULD CONSULT WITH ITS LEGAL AND FINANCIAL ADVISORS AS TO THE
PROPRIETY OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE ALPHAKEYS FUND IN LIGHT OF THE
CIRCUMSTANCES OF SUCH BENEFIT PLAN INVESTOR.
Employee benefit plans that are not subject to the requirements of ERISA or Section 4975 of the
Code may be subject to similar rules under other applicable laws or documents, and should
consult their own legal and financial advisors as to the propriety of an investment in the
AlphaKeys Fund.

VIII. REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS
Securities Act of 1933
The offer and sale of Class B Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund will not be registered under the
1933 Act, in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(aX2) thereof
and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Each purchaser must be an Accredited Investor
(unless otherwise permitted by law) and will be required to represent, among other customary
private placement representations, that it is acquiring its interests in the AlphaKeys Fund for its
own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to resale or distribution.
Investment Company Act of 1940
The AlphaKeys Fund will not be subject to the provisions of the 1940 Act, in reliance upon
Section 3(cX7) thereof. Section 3(cX7) excludes from the definition of "investment company"
any issuer whose outstanding securities are owned exclusively by Qualified Purchasers. A
Qualified Purchaser includes: (i) a natural person who owns not less than $5,000,000 in
investments, (ii) a natural person or company, acting for its own account or the accounts of other
Qualified Purchasers, who owns/invests on a discretionary basis not less than $25,000,000 in
investments, and (iii) certain trusts. The Investor Application and the AlphaKeys Fund
Agreement will each contain representations and restrictions on transfer designed to assure that
the conditions of Section 3(cX7) will be met.
Investment Advisers Act of 1940
The Administrator is registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act.
U.S. Commodity Exchange Act
The AlphaKeys Fund may indirectly through the Underlying Fund invest in commodity interests.
The Administrator is registered with the CFTC and the NFA as a "commodity pool operator" and
its status may be verified via the NFA's Background Affiliation Status Information Center
(BASIC) at www.nfa.futures.org/basicnet. All investors in the AlphaKeys Fund must be
"qualified eligible persons" as defined in applicable CFTC rules. The CFTC does not pass upon
the merits of participating in a pool or upon the adequacy or accuracy of an offering
memorandum. Consequently, the CFTC has not reviewed or approved this Memorandum or any
offering in connection therewith.
U.S. Bank Holdins Company Act
The Administrator is, for purposes of the BHC Act, a subsidiary of UBS, which is subject to
supervision and regulation by the Federal Reserve. It is not expected that UBS will be deemed to
control the AlphaKeys Fund for purposes of the BHC Act. There can be no assurance that the
bank regulatory requirements applicable to UBS will not likewise apply to the AlphaKeys Fund
and therefore have a material adverse effect on the AlphaKeys Fund and its operations. For
example, such regulations could require the AlphaKeys Fund to dispose of its investment in the
Underlying Fund earlier than anticipated by the Administrator or the dissolution of the AlphaKeys
-58-
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003920
EFTA00239252
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Fund earlier than anticipated by the Administrator, potentially having a negative impact on the
returns of the AlphaKeys Fund.
The Administrator, UBS and the AlphaKeys Fund may be able to rely on other statutory and
regulatory provisions in order to maintain compliance with the BHC Act to the extent applicable
to the AlphaKeys Fund. The Administrator reserves the right to rely on any such applicable
exemptions and to take all reasonable steps deemed necessary, advisable or appropriate in its sole
discretion for the AlphaKeys Fund or the Administrator to comply with the BHC Act, including,
without limitation, refraining from voting on matters presented by the Underlying Fund and, if
permitted, disposing of all or any portion of the AlphaKeys Fund's investment in the Underlying
Fund or any portfolio company that does not conform to BHC Act requirements. The BHC Act
and Federal Reserve regulations and interpretations thereunder may be amended over the term of
the AlphaKeys Fund, which could also result in further restrictions on the activities or investments
of the AlphaKeys Fund.

IX. ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING REGULATIONS
As part of the AlphaKeys Fund's responsibility to comply with regulations aimed at the
prevention of money laundering, the Administrator and its affiliates may require a detailed
verification of an Investor's identity, any beneficial owner underlying the account and the source
of the Investor's subscription payment.
The AlphaKeys Fund, the Administrator, and the Sub-Administrator reserve the right to request
such information as is necessary to verify the identity of a subscriber and the underlying beneficial
owners of a subscriber's or an Investor's Class B Interest in the AlphaKeys Fund. In the event of
delay or failure by the subscriber or Investor to produce any information required for verification
purposes, the AlphaKeys Fund, the Administrator, and/or the Sub-Administrator may refuse to
accept a subscription or may cause the withdrawal of such Investor from the AlphaKeys Fund.
The AlphaKeys Fund, the Administrator , and/or the Sub-Administrator may suspend the payment
of withdrawal proceeds of an Investor if the AlphaKeys Fund, the Administrator, and/or the Sub-
Administrator reasonably deem it necessary to do so to comply with anti-money laundering
regulations applicable to the AlphaKeys Fund, the Administrator or any of the AlphaKeys Fund's
other service providers.
Each Investor will be required to make such representations to the Administrator as the
Administrator will require in connection with such anti-money laundering programs, including,
without limitation, representations to the Administrator that such Investor is not a prohibited
country, territory, individual or entity listed on the U.S. Department of Treasury Office of Foreign
Assets Control ("OFAC") website and that it is not directly or indirectly affiliated with any
country, territory, individual or entity named on an OFAC list or prohibited by any OFAC
sanctions programs. Such Investor will also represent to the Administrator that amounts
contributed by it to the AlphaKeys Fund were not directly or indirectly derived from activities that
may contravene U.S. federal, state or international laws and regulations, including, without
limitation, anti-money laundering laws and regulations.

Appendix A - CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM OF THE UNDERLYING FUND
This Appendix A contains (i) the Confidential Memorandum of Millennium USA LP, as
amended from time to time (with respect to Class GG and I-II Interests) and (ii) the Confidential
Memorandum of Millennium Partners, L.P., as amended from time to time (collectively, the
"Underlying Fund Memorandum").
Each prospective Investor should carefully review the Underlying Fund Memorandum. The
information included in the Underlying Fund Memorandum, including, without limitation, the
terms of the AlphaKeys Fund's investment into the Underlying Fund and the risks associated
therewith, was obtained from the Underlying Fund Manager. Such information has not been
prepared by or independently verified by, and does not necessarily reflect the views or opinions
of, the AlphaKeys Fund, UBSFS, the Administrator or any of their respective affiliates, and none
of the foregoing makes any representation or warranty with respect to, or shall be responsible
for, the accuracy or completeness of such information.
Descriptions of any rights, benefits and effects described in the Underlying Fund Memorandum
will inure to the benefit of, and/or apply to, the AlphaKeys Fund as a whole and not to the
Investors. Purchasers of Class B Interests will not be limited partners of the Underlying Fund,
will have no direct interest in the Underlying Fund, will have no voting rights in the Underlying
Fund and will have no standing or recourse against any of the Underlying Fund, the Underlying
Fund Manager, their respective affiliates or any of their respective general partners, investment
advisors, officers, directors, employees, partners or members. Currently, the AlphaKeys Fund
anticipates investing only in Underlying Fund Interests.
There can be no assurance that the Underlying Fund will achieve its investment objective. The
return for an Investor in the Underlying Fund will depend on the timing and actual amount
invested in the Underlying Fund and the performance thereof, as well as the timing and amount
of capital contributed to the Underlying Fund and held in Temporary Investments and the
performance thereof. An Investor in the AlphaKeys Fund may suffer significant losses. Any
losses by the AlphaKeys Fund will be borne solely by the Investors and not by the Administrator
or its affiliates.

This Confidential Memorandum relates to an offering of:
Class GG interests (the "Class GG Offered Interests"), and
Class HH interests (the "Class HH Offered Interests," and together with the Class GG
Offered Interests, the "Offered Interests") of Millennium USA LP, a Delaware limited
partnership ("Millennium USA").
The Offered Interests of each class generally have the same rights and characteristics,
except that the Class HH Offered Interests do not participate in gains and losses from "new issues"
(as such term is defined by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) and activities that
Millennium Management LLC ("Millennium Management") determines are related thereto.
The Offered Interests generally may only be withdrawn at such times and on such notice
as is specified below under "Millennium USA's Organization, Management, Structure, and
Operations — Withdrawal Rights."
The Offered Interests are suitable only for sophisticated investors (i) that do not require
immediate liquidity for their investments, (ii) for which an investment in Millennium USA does
not constitute a complete investment program and (iii) that fully understand and are willing to
assume the risks involved in Millennium USA's investment program. Millennium USA's
investment practices, by their nature, may be considered to involve a substantial degree of risk.
(See "Certain Risk Factors Relating to Millennium USA" and "Millennium USA's Investment
Program and Strategy"). Millennium USA carries out its investment and trading activities
primarily by investing in Millennium Partners, L.P. (the "Master Partnership"), a Cayman

Notwithstanding the foregoing, it may also trade and invest part of its capital for its own account.
Prospective purchasers should carefully read this Confidential Memorandum in its entirety
(including both this Part One, which discusses Class GG Interests and Class HH Interests of
Millennium USA, and Part Two, which discusses the Master Partnership). The contents of this
Confidential Memorandum, however, should not be considered legal or tax advice and each
prospective purchaser should consult with its own counsel and advisers as to all matters concerning
an investment in Millennium USA.
There will be no public offering of the Offered Interests. No offer to sell (or solicitation
of an offer to buy) will be made in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation would be
unlawful.

Summary of Part One of the Confidential Memorandum
(Information Relating to Millennium USA LP)
The following is a summary of certain information set forth more fully in the Eighth
Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, as it may be amended from time to time
(the "Partnership Agreement"), or elsewhere in this Confidential Memorandum of Millennium
USA LP ("Millennium USA"). This summary should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified
in its entirety by, such detailed information and the other sections of this Confidential Memorandum,
including the sections entitled "Certain Risk Factors Relating to Millennium USA" and "Certain Tax
Matters Relating to an Investment in Millennium USA," as well as Part Two of this Confidential
Memorandum. In the event that any information in this summary contradicts the Partnership
Agreement, the Partnership Agreement will control.
The Partnership: Millennium USA is a Delaware limited partnership formed in
November 1997. Millennium USA primarily invests its capital
in Millennium Partners, L.P. (the "Master Partnership"). For
a more detailed description of Millennium USA and its
investment strategy, see "The Partnership" and "Millennium
USA's Investment Program and Strategy," below. For a
description of the Master Partnership, see Part Two of this
Confidential Memorandum. Investors in Millennium USA are
referred to herein as the "Limited Partners." The Limited
Partners, together with Millennium Management LLC, the
general partner of Millennium USA ("Millennium
Management"), are referred to herein as the "Partners."
Millennium Management is also the general partner ofthe Master
Partnership.
Interests Offered: This Confidential Memorandum relates to an offering of Class
GG interests (the "Class GG Offered Interests") and Class HH
interests (the "Class HH Offered Interests," and together with
the Class GG Offered Interests, the "Offered Interests") of
Millennium USA.
The Offered Interests of each class generally have the same
rights and characteristics, except that the Class HH Offered
Interests do not participate in gains and losses from "new issues"
(as such term is defined by the Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority) and activities that Millennium Management
determines are related thereto.

All offers are made subject to the approval of Millennium
Management, and Millennium USA may cease offering the
Offered Interests at any time without notice. The minimum
initial subscription for an investment in Millennium USA is
$5,000,000 and subsequent subscriptions may be made in
$500,000 increments. Millennium Management may, in its sole
discretion, permit Millennium USA to accept subscriptions of
lesser amounts or establish different minimums in the future.
Millennium Management reserves the right to reject a
subscription in its sole and absolute discretion.
Offered Interests generally will be sold only as of the first
business day of a calendar month; monies received prior to the
first business day of a calendar month will be held by
Millennium USA or its agent and a prospective purchaser will
not earn any interest on such monies or any return based on
Millennium USA's performance during the period prior to the
first business day of such month. In the sole and absolute
discretion of Millennium Management, subscriptions may be
accepted after the first business day of a calendar month,
including, without limitation, because the prospective
purchaser's subscription agreement and supporting
documentation were not deemed to be complete by Millennium
Management, in its sole discretion, on the first business day or
because Millennium USA receives the prospective investor's
subscription monies subsequent to the first business day. If
Millennium Management elects, in its sole discretion, to accept
a subscription subsequent to the first business day of a calendar
month, for whatever reason, the subscription will be deemed by
Millennium Management, in its sole discretion, to have been
invested on the first business day of such calendar month at the
relevant subscription price on such day. In such a situation, the
prospective investor will, unless otherwise agreed by
Millennium Management, be subject to an interest charge at a
daily rate determined by Millennium USA for the portion of the
month preceding the date that subscription monies are received
or the date Millennium Management determines, in its sole
discretion, that the subscription agreement of such investor was
complete, as applicable, which will be assessed against the
Offered Interests of the applicable Limited Partner. See
"Interests Offered; Terms of the Offering — Interests Offered."
For purposes of this Confidential Memorandum, a business day
is any day, Monday through Friday, on which banks in New
York City are open for business.

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Purchaser Qualifications: The Offered Interests generally are intended only for
prospective purchasers that are "qualified purchasers" (as such
term is defined in Section 2(aX51) of the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended), are taxable U.S. investors, and are
persons for which such an investment is otherwise appropriate.
As a condition to the acceptance of any subscription for Offered
Interests, each prospective purchaser will be required to
complete, to the satisfaction of Millennium Management and
SS&C Financial Services LLC, herein referred to as the
"Administrator," a signed subscription agreement
("Subscription Agreement") certifying these and other
matters, making certain representations and agreeing to certain
terms in a form to be provided by Millennium Management.
(See "Interests Offered; Terms of the Offering — Interests
Offered.")
Millennium Management reserves the right to reject a
subscription in its sole and absolute discretion. If a subscription
is rejected, the unused subscription monies will be returned,
without interest, at the risk and cost of the prospective
purchaser, to the prospective purchaser's account from which
the monies were originally remitted.
Millennium USA's The investment objective of Millennium USA is to achieve
Investment Program and above-average appreciation by opportunistically trading and
Strategy: investing in a wide variety of securities, instruments, and other
investment opportunities and engaging in a broad array of
trading and investment strategies. THERE ARE NO
SUBSTANTIVE LIMITS ON THE INVESTMENT
STRATEGIES THAT MAY BE PURSUED BY
MILLENNIUM USA. See "Millennium USA's Investment
Program and Strategy" and the entirety of Part Two of this
Confidential Memorandum.
As discussed in "Millennium USA's Investment Program and
Strategy," Millennium USA carries out its investment and
trading activities primarily by investing in the Master
Partnership, but it also may trade and invest part of its capital
for its own account, when presented with investment
opportunities that are appropriate for it and its investors but that
may be inappropriate or not optimal (for tax or other reasons)
for other direct or indirect investors in the Master Partnership.
Similarly, such other investors may have the benefit of
investments inappropriate or not optimal for Millennium USA.
For these reasons, returns among Millennium USA and other
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-3
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003934
EFTA00239266
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
investment funds that invest in the Master Partnership will to
some degree (and potentially materially) differ.
Millennium USA may directly engage in any investment
activities in which the Master Partnership engages (as more
fully described in Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum).
Certain Risk Factors: The investment program of the Master Partnership, and
therefore of Millennium USA, involves significant risks,
including the Master Partnership's reliance upon Millennium
Management and portfolio managers selected by Millennium
Management, limitations on withdrawals, the use of leverage,
trading in derivative instruments and conflicts of interest related
to investment opportunities and business activities among the
Master Partnership's affiliates and their management.
Prospective purchasers are urged to carefully review the
sections titled "Certain Risk Factors Relating to Millennium
USA" below and "Certain Risk Factors Relating to an
Investment in the Master Partnership" in Part Two of this
Confidential Memorandum.
"New Issues": The Class HH Offered Interests (as well as certain other
previously issued and outstanding classes) will not participate
in gains and losses from "new issues" and activities that
Millennium Management determines are related thereto.
Policies with respect to the allocation of gains and losses from
new issues and activities that Millennium Management
determines are related thereto may be revised by Millennium
Management at any time without prior notice to Limited
Partners. (See "Interests Offered; Terms of the Offering—
Treatment of New Issues.")
Sales Charees: Unless otherwise previously disclosed to an investor, there will
be no sales charges payable to Millennium USA or Millennium
Management in connection with the offering of Offered
Interests to that investor. To the extent that any such charges
are applicable and paid from an investor's funds, the investor's
actual investment in the Offered Interests will be reduced.
Millennium Management or its affiliates may enter into, and
have from time to time entered into, agreements with placement
agents providing for payment by Millennium Management or its
affiliates of a portion of subscription amounts, or providing for
ongoing payments based on a percentage of the Incentive
Allocation due to Millennium Management that is attributable
to the interests of an investor introduced by such placement
agent or the payment of other amounts to the placement agents.

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Limitations on As described below under "Suitability Requirements;
Transferability: Limitations on Transferability ofInterests ofMillennium USA,"
each investor will be required to agree that (i) no Offered
Interests, nor any interest therein, may be pledged, assigned,
hypothecated, sold, exchanged or transferred (each, a
"Transfer") without the prior consent of Millennium
Management, which consent may be withheld in its sole
discretion, or made subject to such conditions as may be
imposed by Millennium Management in its sole discretion, and
(ii) prior to considering any request to permit a transfer of
Offered Interests, Millennium Management may require the
submission by the proposed transferee of a certification as to the
matters discussed in that section under "— Suitability
Requirements" as well as such other documents, representations
or undertakings as Millennium Management and/or the
Administrator, as applicable, considers appropriate.
Transferred interests generally will be deemed to have been sold
and purchased as of the date of the transfer for all purposes,
including calculating the Incentive Allocation (as defined
herein), unless otherwise agreed to by Millennium
Management, in its sole discretion.
Millennium Management will not consent to any Transfer other
than a Transfer (i) in circumstances in which the tax basis of the
Offered Interest in the hands of the transferee is determined, in
whole or in part, by reference to its tax basis in the hands of the
transferor, (ii) to members of such Partner's immediate family
(brothers, sisters, spouse, parents and children), or (iii) as a
distribution from a qualified retirement plan or an individual
retirement account (each, a "Permissible Transfer"), unless
Millennium Management determines that the proposed Transfer
will not cause Millennium USA to be treated as a "publicly
traded partnership" taxable as a corporation for Federal tax
purposes. Without limiting the foregoing, unless otherwise
agreed to by Millennium Management, Millennium
Management generally does not expect to consent to any
Transfer (other than a Permissible Transfer) unless the Transfer
(i) is between existing limited partners effective as of the
beginning of the next fiscal quarter after 65 days' prior written
notice to Millennium USA and the Administrator, and (ii) is
based on the net asset value of the Offered Interests being
transferred as of the effective date of the Transfer.
NN it lid raw al Rights: The following is a summary of the withdrawal rights associated
with the Offered Interests, which are further described under
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-5
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003936
EFTA00239268
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
"Millennium USA's Organization, Management, Structure, and
Operations — Withdrawal Rights":
Offered Interests generally may be withdrawn on either the
"Quarterly Withdrawal Schedule" or the "Annual
Withdrawal Schedule," each as described below:
Quarterly WithdrawalSchedule
A Limited Partner may elect to withdraw up to 5% of the net
asset value of such Limited Partner's Offered Interests as of the
end of any calendar quarter (a "Quarterly Withdrawal") by
providing written notice at least 90 days and no more than 180
days prior to the end of the applicable calendar quarter (a
"Quarterly Withdrawal Date"). In addition, if as a result of
Quarterly Withdrawals (whether or not consecutive) the net
asset value of a Limited Partner's Offered Interests is equal to
5% or less of its aggregate subscription amounts for Offered
Interests, a Limited Partner may withdraw the balance of such
Offered Interests by providing written notice at least 90 days
and no more than 180 days prior to the end of a calendar quarter.
All notices must be provided to both Millennium USA and the
Administrator.
Annual Withdrawal Schedule
A Limited Partner may elect to withdraw the entire net asset
value of such Limited Partner's Offered Interests over a five (5)
year period by making five consecutive annual withdrawal
requests, with proceeds paid on a calendar quarterly basis within
each such annual period as set forth in the table below (each
annual period, an "Annual Withdrawal Period," and each
calendar quarter end withdrawal date within an Annual
Withdrawal Period, an "Annual Withdrawal Schedule Date").
A Limited Partner may elect to commence an Annual
Withdrawal Period as of any calendar quarter, but such Annual
Withdrawal Period does not have to coincide with a calendar
year. A Limited Partner electing to withdraw Offered Interests
pursuant to the Annual Withdrawal Schedule must provide
written notice to both Millennium USA and the Administrator
at least 90 days and no more than 180 days (i) prior to the First
Annual Withdrawal Schedule Date of the First Annual
Withdrawal Period and (ii) prior to the First Annual Withdrawal
Schedule Date of each subsequent Annual Withdrawal Period.
During each Annual Withdrawal Period, withdrawal amounts
will be calculated based on the net asset value of such Limited

Period
If a Limited Partner on the Annual Withdrawal Schedule does
not make five consecutive annual requests, or does not provide
timely notice for an Annual Withdrawal Period, any future
withdrawal pursuant to the Annual Withdrawal Schedule will be
treated as starting a new First Annual Withdrawal Period and
will be subject to all applicable terms and requirements
(including required annual notices) of the Annual Withdrawal
Schedule. In addition, if a Limited Partner on the Annual
Withdrawal Schedule subscribes for or otherwise receives
additional Offered Interests during an Annual Withdrawal
Period, any future withdrawal request pursuant to the Annual
Withdrawal Schedule as to such additional Offered Interests
will start with a new First Annual Withdrawal Period and will
be subject to all applicable terms and requirements (including
required annual notices) of the Annual Withdrawal Schedule.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Limited Partner that has made
consecutive Quarterly Withdrawals of 5% of such Limited
Partner's Offered Interests and then elects to transition as of the
following calendar quarter end to an Annual Withdrawal
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-7
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003938
EFTA00239270
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Schedule will receive credit for the number of consecutive 5%
Quarterly Withdrawals only as follows:
• A Limited Partner that has made at least four but fewer
than eight consecutive 5% Quarterly Withdrawals may
elect to commence on the Annual Withdrawal Schedule
beginning with the Second Annual Withdrawal Period.
• A Limited Partner that has made at least eight
consecutive 5% Quarterly Withdrawals may elect to
commence on the Annual Withdrawal Schedule
beginning with the Third Annual Withdrawal Period.
A Limited Partner electing to transition from the Quarterly
Withdrawal Schedule to the Annual Withdrawal Schedule in
accordance with the foregoing must provide prior written notice
to both Millennium USA and the Administrator at least 90 days
and no more than 180 days prior to the First Annual Withdrawal
Schedule Date, provided that such First Annual Withdrawal
Schedule Date must be one full calendar quarter following such
Limited Partner's last 5% Quarterly Withdrawal.
A Limited Partner may only request a withdrawal of Offered
Interests as of any calendar quarter end with the requisite notice
pursuant to either the Quarterly Withdrawal Schedule or the
Annual Withdrawal Schedule, and not both schedules. A
Limited Partner is entitled to no more than one (1) withdrawal
of Offered Interests per calendar quarter pursuant to either the
Quarterly Withdrawal Schedule or the Annual Withdrawal
Schedule, and no more than four (4) withdrawals per 12-month
period.
General
Withdrawal requests are irrevocable upon receipt by
Millennium USA, subject to Millennium Management's sole
discretion to permit revocation in whole or in part; provided that
Millennium Management determines that such action will not
cause Millennium USA or the Master Partnership to be treated
as a "publicly traded partnership" taxable as a corporation for
Federal tax purposes.
Withdrawal requests received outside of the specified notice
period for a particular Quarterly Withdrawal Date or Annual
Withdrawal Schedule Date will be deemed null and void and
will not be honored. In addition, a withdrawal request received
for an amount in excess of the maximum amount permitted to
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-8
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003939
EFTA00239271
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
be withdrawn will be honored only to the extent of such
maximum amount, and the request as to the excess amount will
be deemed null and void and will not be honored.
Millennium Management may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, permit a withdrawal of Offered Interests at intervals,
in amounts and pursuant to such notice terms other than those
set forth above or convert Offered Interests into interests of
another class with substantially the same rights and
characteristics if it determines that such a withdrawal or
conversion would be permitted by applicable law; provided that
Millennium Management determines that such action will not
cause Millennium USA or the Master Partnership to be treated
as a "publicly traded partnership" taxable as a corporation for
Federal tax purposes.
Millennium USA generally will pay 95% of the withdrawal
payment within 30 days following the applicable withdrawal
date (whether pursuant to the Quarterly Withdrawal Schedule or
the Annual Withdrawal Schedule) and generally will withhold
5% of any withdrawal payment pending closing of Millennium
USA's books and reconciliation of the amounts due for the
quarter (in each case, computed on the basis of unaudited data
as of the withdrawal date, and subject to any applicable reserves
or holdbacks). However, if a withdrawal date coincides with a
date as of which Millennium USA's financial statements are
audited, the balance of the withdrawal payment will generally
be made, subject to audit adjustments, after completion of the
audit. If the amount of a withdrawal exceeds 90% of the
aggregate value of the Limited Partner's Offered Interests (after
taking into account any adjustments made in connection with
the audit) immediately prior to the applicable withdrawal date,
then Millennium USA generally will withhold from the
withdrawal payment 10% of the aggregate value. The balance
will be paid (subject to audit adjustments), within 30 days after
the completion of the next audit of Millennium USA, subject to
any applicable reserves or holdbacks.
Balances held until following the completion of an audit, if any,
will be paid with interest calculated from the applicable
withdrawal date until the payment date at the average
(calculated weekly) per annum short-term (13-week) Treasury
Bill rate.

Millennium Management may, in its discretion, elect to
withhold smaller amounts than those described above or to
accelerate the repayment of withheld balances.
Limitation on Millennium Management may, in its discretion, hold back a
Withdrawals: Compulsory portion of the withdrawal proceeds payable to a Limited Partner
Withdrawal: in respect of Offered Interests being withdrawn (whether such
withdrawal is voluntary or compulsory) to satisfy contingent or
expected liabilities. In addition, withdrawals may be suspended
if Millennium Management or the Administrator reasonably
deems it appropriate to do so to ensure compliance with
applicable anti-money laundering regulations and in such other
limited circumstances described herein. See "Millennium
USA's Organization, Management, Structure and Operations —
Withdrawal Rights" and "- Suspension for Anti-Money
Laundering Purposes." A breach of a covenant under an
agreement relating to indebtedness or similar obligations of the
Master Partnership, could trigger an acceleration of such
indebtedness or obligations, reducing or eliminating equity
withdrawals from the Master Partnership by Millennium USA.
See "Certain Risk Factors Relating to Millennium USA —
Limitation on Withdrawals" herein and "Certain Risk Factors
Relating to an Investment in the Master Partnership - Certain
Market and Investment Risks - Indebtedness" in Part Two of
this Confidential Memorandum.
Millennium Management reserves the right, subject to
applicable law, upon not less than five days' prior written notice
(unless Millennium Management determines that it is necessary
to reduce such period in order to comply with applicable law or
similar requirements), to require any investor to withdraw all or
any portion of its interests at any time for any reason or no
reason. See "Millennium USA's Organization, Management,
Structure, and Operations — Compulsory Withdrawal."
Limited Liquidity: Interests in Millennium USA other than the Offered Interests,
and interests in additional feeder funds that also invest into the
Master Partnership (collectively, "Other Interests"), generally
are significantly more liquid than the Offered Interests. In
addition, unlike the Other Interests, the Offered Interests have
no special withdrawalright in the event of the death, disability,
adjudication of incompetency, bankruptcy, insolvency or
withdrawal from the general partner of the Master Partnership
ofIsrael A. Englander (a "Trigger Event"). Please see "Certain
Risk Factors Relating to Millennium USA" — "Different Terms
of Interests" and "Limited Liquidity" for additional information
regarding such differences in liquidity and the potential

implications for holders of Offered Interests.
General Partner; Incentive The general partner of Millennium USA is Millennium
Allocation: Management. Israel A. Englander is currently the controlling

Millennium International Management GP LLC), the managing
member of Millennium Management. Millennium Management
also serves as the general partner of the Master Partnership.
Millennium Management and other affiliated entities that
participate in the management of the Master Partnership's assets
are collectively referred to herein as "Millennium." See "The
Master Partnership's Management, Structure and Operations —
Management" in Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum
for a description of certain control relationships.
As described below under "Allocation of Gains and Losses," at
the end of each fiscal year of Millennium USA, or at such other
date during a fiscal year as of which the following reallocation
is required, 20% of the aggregate net capital appreciation of
Millennium USA applicable to the Offered Interests will be
reallocated to Millennium Management as its incentive
allocation (the "Incentive Allocation").
Dissolution of Millennium Millennium Management has the right to compulsorily effect a
USA: withdrawal of all issued interests of Millennium USA and/or
dissolve Millennium USA at any time (including during a fiscal
year), for any reason or for no reason. See "Outline of the
Partnership Agreement — Term; Dissolution."
Fees and Expenses Relating As described below under "Fees and Expenses Relating to
to Millennium USA: Millennium USA," in addition to bearing the Incentive
Allocation received by Millennium Management, Millennium
USA is, directly, or through its investment in the Master
Partnership, responsible for all expenses, without limitation,
directly or indirectly, in connection with the operation of
Millennium USA, including, without limitation:
• all fees and expenses incurred in connection with any
transactions, engagements, and other agreements that it
enters into on its own behalf, including, among other things,
costs and expenses of the Administrator, expenses in
connection with the private placement of interests of
Millennium USA (other than placement fees, if any); and
• a generally pro raw portion of all fees and expenses
incurred by Millennium Management and its affiliates with
respect to, or in connection with (e.g. through the operation

of and the provision of services to), the Master Partnership
and its affiliates or incurred directly by the Master
Partnership or jointly by multiple feeder funds. See "The
Master Partnership's Fees and Expenses" in Part Two of
this Confidential Memorandum for a description and non-
exhaustive list of such expenses, including, without
limitation, the following general expense categories:
compensation and fringe benefits payable to employees and
fees payable to others providing services to the Master
Partnership; expenses related to computers, equipment and
technology; expenses related to maintaining offices,

expenses related to investment activities; accounting,
valuation, audit, tax and legal expenses; fees and expenses
paid for the investment advisory services of affiliated

Partnership's assets; and other miscellaneous expenses.
Millennium generally seeks to allocate expenses among
Millennium USA and the other feeder funds, including
Millennium International (as defined herein) on a pro rata basis
according to the relative values of their interests in the Master
Partnership, but a particular expense may be allocated
differently if Millennium determines in its discretion that it
would be fair and reasonable to do so under the circumstances.
In addition, expenses of Millennium that relate to the Master
Partnership or Millennium USA as well as other activities of
Millennium, including other funds or accounts managed by
Millennium, are allocated among the applicable parties in a
manner that Millennium determines, in its discretion, to be fair
and reasonable under the circumstances. See "Related-Party
Transactions and Other Accounts; Conflicts; Allocation of
Expenses Among Feeder Funds and Other Accounts" in Part
Two of this Confidential Memorandum.
(See "Fees and Expenses Relating to Millennium USA" and
"Certain Risk Factors Relating to Millennium USA—
Compensation ofMillennium Management.")

(the "Administrator") to act as its administrator and provide
certain administrative and accounting services to Millennium
USA. Such services include, among others, (i) the calculation

counterparties, prime brokers and custodians; (iii) the
calculation of Millennium USA's profit and loss; (iv) registrar
and transfer agency services; and (v) year-end support services
with respect to Millennium USA's audit and tax processes, as
may be required. (See "The Administrator.")
Taxation: Schulte Roth & Zabel LLP has rendered an opinion that
Millennium USA and the Master Partnership will each be
classified as a partnership and not as an association taxable as a
corporation for federal tax purposes. Such counsel has also
rendered its opinion that neither Millennium USA nor the
Master Partnership will be treated as a "publicly traded
partnership" taxable as a corporation. Accordingly, Millennium
USA and the Master Partnership generally should not be subject
to federal income tax, and each Limited Partner will be required
to report on its own annual tax return such Limited Partner's
distributive share of Millennium USA's taxable income or loss.
(See "Certain Tax Matters Relating to an Investment in
Millennium USA.")
ERISA and Other Tax Entities subject to the U.S. Employee Retirement Income
Exempt Entities: Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), may purchase
Offered Interests. Investment in Offered Interests by entities
subject to ERISA (or other tax-exempt U.S. entities) requires
special consideration. Trustees or administrators of such entities
are urged to carefully review the matters discussed in this
Confidential Memorandum. In particular, Millennium USA
may utilize leverage in connection with its trading activities and
may engage in certain other activities, which could give rise to
"unrelated business taxable income". Millennium USA does
not intend to permit investments by "benefit plan investors" (as
defined in Section 3(42) of ERISA and any regulations
promulgated thereunder) to equal or exceed 25% (or such other
percentage as may be specified from time to time in regulations
promulgated by the Department of Labor) of the value of any
class of equity interests in Millennium USA. (See "ERISA
Considerations.")
Anti-Money Laundering In order to comply with laws and regulations aimed at the
Considerations: prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing,
Millennium USA is required to adopt and maintain anti-money
laundering procedures, and, accordingly, Millennium USA, or
the Administrator on Millennium USA's behalf, may require
prospective purchasers or existing Limited Partners to provide

evidence to verify their identity, the identity of their beneficial
owners and controllers (where applicable), and the source of
funds. In the event of delay or failure by a prospective purchaser
or a Limited Partner to produce any information required for
verification purposes, Millennium USA, or the Administrator on
Millennium USA's behalf, may, among other things, refuse to
accept the subscription or may effect a compulsory withdrawal
of any such Limited Partner from Millennium USA. (See "Anti-
Money Laundering Considerations.")

PART ONE: INFORMATION SPECIFIC TO THE OFFERING AND
MILLENNIUM USA
The Partnership
This Confidential Memorandum relates to an offering of Class GG interests (the "Class
GG Offered Interests") and Class HH interests (the "Class HH Offered Interests," and together
with the Class GG Offered Interests, the "Offered Interests") of Millennium USA LP
("Millennium USA"). The Offered Interests generally are intended only for prospective
purchasers that are taxable U.S. investors and are persons for which such an investment is
otherwise appropriate. Investors in Millennium USA are referred to herein as the "Limited
Partners." The Limited Partners, together with Millennium Management LLC, the general partner
of Millennium USA ("Millennium Management"), are referred to herein as the "Partners."
Millennium Management is also the general partner of the Master Partnership. The Offered Interests,
together with all other interests in Millennium USA, are referred to herein as the "Interests."
Millennium USA accepts investments from outside investors and primarily invests its
capital in Millennium Partners, L.P. (the "Master Partnership") and may also invest through
separate legal entities directly in the Master Partnership's underlying strategies. In addition to
Millennium USA, Millennium International, Ltd. ("Millennium International") also accepts
investments from outside investors and primarily invests its capital in the Master Partnership (or
its underlying strategies) indirectly through Millennium Offshore Intermediate, L.P., a Cayman
Islands exempted limited partnership (the "Intermediate Partnership"), which, in turn, invests
all or substantially all of its capital in the Master Partnership. Each of Millennium USA and
Millennium International will make separate investments from time to time as discussed below
under "Millennium USA's Investment Program and Strategy." Millennium Global Estate LP
("Millennium Global Estate") also invests in the Master Partnership as part of a broader
investment strategy. Additional feeder funds that invest into the Master Partnership or into its
underlying strategies may be formed in the future. The Master Partnership and its investment
program are described in detail in Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum.
Interests Offered; Terms of the Offering
Interests Offered
Certain Characteristics of the Offered Interests. All offers are made subject to the approval
of Millennium Management, and Millennium USA may cease offering the Offered Interests at any
time without notice. Millennium Management reserves the right to reject a subscription in its sole
and absolute discretion. From time to time Millennium USA may limit additional subscriptions,
and in such circumstances Millennium Management will determine which subscriptions to accept
across prospective and existing investors, in its sole discretion, taking into account such factors as
it deems relevant, including potentially other interests of Millennium Management.
The Offered Interests of each class generally have the same rights and characteristics,
except that the Class HH Offered Interests do not participate in gains and losses from "new issues"
(as such term is defined by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA")) and activities
that Millennium Management determines are related thereto. A description of other classes of
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-15
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003946
EFTA00239278
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Interests of Millennium USA that are currently outstanding is set forth in Appendix I attached
hereto.
Offered Interests generally will be sold only as of the first business day of a calendar month;
monies received prior to the first business day of a calendar month will be held by Millennium
USA or its agent and a prospective purchaser will not earn any interest on such monies or any
return based on Millennium USA's performance during the period prior to the first business day
of such month. In the sole and absolute discretion of Millennium Management, subscriptions may
be accepted after the first business day of a calendar month, including, without limitation, because
the prospective purchaser's subscription agreement and supporting documentation were not
deemed to be complete by Millennium Management, in its sole discretion, on the first business
day or because Millennium USA receives the prospective purchaser's subscription monies
subsequent to the first business day. If Millennium Management elects, in its sole discretion, to
accept a subscription subsequent to the first business day of a calendar month, for whatever reason,
the subscription will be deemed to have been invested on the first business day of such calendar
month at the relevant subscription price on such day. In such a situation, the prospective investor
will, unless otherwise agreed by Millennium Management, be subject to an interest charge at a
daily rate determined by Millennium Management for the portion of the month preceding the date
that subscription monies are received or the date Millennium Management determines, in its sole
discretion, that the subscription agreement of such investor was complete, as applicable, which
will be assessed against the capital account of the applicable Limited Partner. See "Interests
Offered; Terms of the Offering — Interests Offered." For purposes of this Confidential
Memorandum, a business day is any day, Monday through Friday, on which banks in New York
City are open for business.
There will be no public market for the Offered Interests, and they will not be transferable
except under certain limited exceptions. (See "Suitability Requirements; Limitations on
Transferability of Interests of Millennium USA.") Holders of other direct or indirect interests in
Millennium USA or the Master Partnership will have the right to withdraw their interests pursuant
to different and more favorable terms than are applicable to holders of the Offered Interests.
As a condition to the acceptance of any subscription for Offered Interests, each prospective
purchaser will be required to complete, to the satisfaction of Millennium Management and the
Administrator (as defined herein), and sign a subscription agreement (a "Subscription
Agreement") in a form to be provided by Millennium Management.
Each prospective purchaser will be required in the Subscription Agreement to, among other
things, (i) make certain representations, covenants and warranties, (ii) agree that Interests of
Millennium USA or withdrawal proceeds in respect thereof may be used to offset obligations of
the withdrawing Limited Partner and/or its affiliate(s) (to the extent that the withdrawing Limited
Partner and such affiliate(s) have the same beneficial owner) to Millennium USA, the Master
Partnership or their respective affiliates, (iii) provide certain information about the prospective
purchaser to Millennium USA, Millennium Management and the Administrator and (iv) indemnify
Millennium USA, Millennium Management, the Administrator and their respective affiliates for
losses incurred by them with respect to the prospective purchaser providing false information or
misrepresentations. Millennium USA, Millennium Management, and/or the Administrator may

EFTA00239279
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
also, from time to time, require such additional certifications, representations, and undertakings as
they deem appropriate, including representations as to the net worth of a prospective purchaser.
Millennium Management, on behalf of the Limited Partners, may select one or more
persons (not affiliated with Millennium Management) to serve on a committee as may be
established from time to time in the future without prior notice to Limited Partners, the purpose of
which is to consider and, on behalf of the Limited Partners, approve or disapprove, to the extent
required by applicable law or deemed advisable by Millennium Management, principal
transactions, certain other related-party transactions, certain other transactions and matters
involving potential conflicts of interest, including without limitation changes in control of
Millennium Management and its affiliates. Such committee may approve of such matters prior to
or contemporaneous with, or ratify such matters subsequent to, the consummation of such matters.
The person(s) so selected may be exculpated and indemnified by Millennium USA in the same
manner and to the same extent as Millennium Management.
Under the terms of the Subscription Agreement, each holder of Interests agrees to notify
Millennium Management and the Administrator promptly in writing if there is any change with
respect to any information provided to Millennium Management and/or the Administrator and to
provide any additional information reasonably requested by Millennium Management and/or the
Administrator.
Minimum Subscription. The minimum initial subscription for an investment in
Millennium USA is $5,000,000 and subsequent additional subscriptions following an initial
investment may be made in $500,000 increments. Millennium Management may, in its sole
discretion, accept subscriptions of lesser amounts or establish different minimums in the future.
Millennium Management reserves the right to reject a subscription in its sole and absolute
discretion.
Sales Charges and Commissions. Unless otherwise previously disclosed to an investor,
there will be no sales charges payable to Millennium USA or Millennium Management in
connection with the offering of Offered Interests to that investor. To the extent any such charges
are applicable and paid from an investor's funds, the investor's actual investment in the Offered
Interests will be reduced. Millennium Management or its affiliates may enter into, and have from
time to time entered into, agreements with placement agents providing for payment by Millennium
Management or its affiliates of a portion of subscription amounts, or providing for ongoing
payments based on a percentage of the Incentive Allocation due to Millennium Management that
are attributable to the Interests of an investor introduced by such placement agent, or the payment
of other amounts to the placement agents.
Withdrawal Rights. The withdrawal rights of the Offered Interests are described under
"Millennium USA's Organization, Management, Structure, and Operations — Withdrawal Rights."
Treatment of New Issues. The Class HH Offered Interests (as well as certain other classes
of Interests issued and outstanding as set forth in Appendix I (collectively with the Class HH
Offered Interests, the "Restricted Classes")) will not participate in gains and losses from "new
issues" (as such term is defined by FINRA) and activities that Millennium Management determines
are related thereto.
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-17
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003948
EFTA00239280
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Because the Class GG Offered Interests (as well as certain other classes of Interests
previously issued and outstanding as set forth in Appendix I (collectively with the Class GG
Offered Interests, the "Unrestricted Classes")) will participate in gains and losses from new issues
and activities that Millennium Management determines are related thereto, the value of the net
assets attributable to such Interests will likely vary from the value of the net assets attributable to
Interests of the Restricted Classes.
If a Partner in an Unrestricted Class subsequently becomes restricted from the purchase of
new issues, the Interest in the Unrestricted Class held by such Partner will be convened into an
Interest in the corresponding Restricted Class.
Millennium Management reserves the right to vary its policy with respect to the allocation
of the gains and losses from new issues and activities that Millennium Management determines
are related thereto as it deems appropriate for Millennium USA as a whole, in light of, among other
things, interpretations of, and amendments to, FINRA's rules and practical considerations,
including administrative burdens and principles of fairness and equity.
Net Asset Value. The Administrator issues Millennium USA's and the Master
Partnership's net asset value on a monthly basis after performing independent verification and
reconciliation of Millennium USA's and the Master Partnership's assets and liabilities, as well as
recording of their expenses, and independent checks on valuation. Valuations of publicly traded
security positions are compared to market data independently obtained from third party market
data providers. Valuations of security positions are compared to information received from third
parties, including brokers and independent valuation service providers. Security positions and
cash balances are reconciled with Millennium USA's and the Master Partnership's records based
upon confirmations or statements that the Administrator independently receives from prime
brokers and other financial institutions that hold assets of Millennium USA and the Master
Partnership. The procedures performed do not constitute an audit in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States (although the financial statements of Millennium
USA and the Master Partnership are audited in accordance with such standards by their
independent auditors on an annual basis, see "Millennium USA's Independent Public
Accountants"). The verification and review work conducted by the Administrator does not
constitute a 100% verification of the valuation work of Millennium Management.
The value of any investment on any valuation date is intended to represent the fair value of
such investment on such date based upon the amount at which the investment could be exchanged
between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation sale, and is Millennium Management's
estimate of such value using the methodology described in its valuation policies and procedures as
they may be amended or revised from time to time. Any valuation of an investment may not reflect
the actual amount that would be received by Millennium USA or the Master Partnership upon the
liquidation of such investment. In addition, the timing of liquidations of investments may also
affect the prices that could be obtained upon such liquidations. Millennium USA and the Master
Partnership are entitled to rely, without independent investigation, upon pricing information and
valuations furnished to them by third parties, including pricing services. See "Certain Risk Factors
Relating to an Investment in the Master Partnership - Certain Market and Investment Risks —
Valuation Risk" in Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum.

CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003949
EFTA00239281
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Certain Risk Factors Relating to Millennium USA
Risk Factors Relevant to the Master Partnership. Part Two of this Confidential
Memorandum contains a description of risk factors relevant to an investment in the Master
Partnership. As Millennium USA primarily invests its assets in the Master Partnership, the risk
factors described in Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum likewise apply to an investment
in Millennium USA and should be carefully reviewed before any investment is made.
Different Returns Among Investors in the Master Partnership. Millennium USA carries
out its investment and trading activities primarily by investing in the Master Partnership.
Millennium USA may trade and invest a portion of its capital for its own account, when presented
with investment opportunities that are appropriate for it and its investors, but that may be
inappropriate or not optimal (for tax or other reasons) for other direct or indirect investors in the
Master Partnership. Similarly, such other investors may have the benefit of investments
inappropriate or not optimal for Millennium USA. For these reasons, returns among Millennium
USA and other feeder funds that invest in the Master Partnership will to some degree (and
potentially materially) differ.
Different Terms of Interests. Millennium USA has existing classes of Interests, and may,
from time to time, establish additional classes or series of interests, that provide holders of those
interests with rights additional to and/or different from (including, without limitation, with respect
to fees, allocations, withdrawal rights, transfers, notices, transparency and reporting) the rights
attached to the Offered Interests. In addition, and without limitation of the foregoing, different
classes of interests may permit a Limited Partner to withdraw on less notice and/or at different
times than holders of Offered Interests, and holders of some classes of interests other than the
Offered Interests, which will likely constitute a substantial portion of the indirect ownership of the
Master Partnership, are entitled to withdrawal upon the occurrence of a key person event or
"Trigger Event." Although the principal of Millennium and certain of his affiliates and certain
senior officers of Millennium are expected to hold Offered Interests initially, such persons as well
as other senior officers and employees of Millennium, and other related parties, currently invest,
and are in the future expected to continue to invest, in existing or newly established classes of
interests that have such additional and/or different liquidity rights. In addition, Millennium USA
may enter into letter agreements or other similar agreements with one or more Limited Partners
that provide different rights to certain Limited Partners. In general, Millennium USA will not be
required to notify any or all of the Limited Partners of any such new classes or agreements or any
of the rights and/or terms or provisions thereof, nor will Millennium USA be required to offer such
additional and/or different rights and/or terms to any or all of the existing Limited Partners. (See
"Limited Liquidity" below.)
Formation of Additional Vehicles. Millennium Management and its affiliates retain the
right to organize additional investment vehicles and to advise additional clients. As set forth in
the section entitled "Related-Party Transactions and Other Accounts; Conflicts" in Part Two of this
Confidential Memorandum, the existence of such additional vehicles or accounts presents a number
of conflicts among such vehicles or accounts, Millennium USA and the Master Partnership.
Millennium Management and its affiliates will attempt to resolve such conflicts by making
allocations and other judgments on a basis that they believe to be fair and equitable under the
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-19
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003950
EFTA00239282
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
circumstances, but there can be no guarantee that such actions will reduce or minimize the
associated risk.
Issuance of Debt or Preferred Securities and Similar Arrangements. Millennium USA or
the Master Partnership may, without notice to or consent from existing investors, issue or
guarantee classes ofpreferred equity, debt and convertible debt, or enter into similar arrangements,
including letters of credit, or list a class of shares or interests of another feeder fund or other
account on an exchange, which provide the holders thereof or parties thereto terms that are
different from, and in some cases, preferential to, the terms applicable to the Interests held by
existing Limited Partners in Millennium USA or to Millennium USA's interest in the Master
Partnership. Such terms could include, among other things, a security interest over certain assets
of the Master Partnership that would provide the holder thereof or party thereto the right to
foreclose upon such assets following the occurrence of certain trigger events such as insolvency,
bankruptcy, default or a suspension of withdrawals. If such securities are outstanding or such an
arrangement exists and a trigger event occurs, it is possible that holders thereof or parties thereto
would be entitled to receive assets of the Master Partnership in satisfaction of its obligations to
them prior to the time that Limited Partners in Millennium USA are able to withdraw.
Limited Liquidity. Interests of classes ofMillennium USA other than the Offered Interests,
and shares in additional feeder funds that also invest into the Master Partnership (collectively
"Other Interests"), generally are significantly more liquid than the Offered Interests. Other
Interests are generally able to be withdrawn entirely on an annual basis or for a greater percentage
of a holder's interests on a quarterly basis. In addition, unlike the Other Interests, the Offered
Interests have no special withdrawal right in the event of the death, disability, adjudication of
incompetency, bankruptcy, insolvency or withdrawal from the general partner of the Master
Partnership of Israel A. Englander (a "Trigger Event"), or the occurrence of any other key person
event. The exercise of such a special withdrawal right by holders of Other Interests will not result
in, or be deemed to create, any special withdrawal right for the holders of the Offered Interests (in
their capacity as such). Upon the occurrence of a Trigger Event, holders of the Offered Interests
will be subject to Millennium Management's plan for the continuation of its operations. More
broadly, whether in the context of a Trigger Event or otherwise, holders of Offered Interests will
not have any right to approve changes in control of Millennium Management and/or its affiliates,
nor to withdraw any Offered Interests in connection therewith. In addition to the Other Interests
currently in existence, Millennium USA and the additional feeder funds that invest in the Master
Partnership may in the future establish additional classes or series ofinterests or shares that provide
holders of those interests or shares with liquidity terms that are more favorable than those
applicable to the Offered Interests. The ability of holders of Other Interests to withdraw Other
Interests when the holders of the Offered Interests are restricted from doing so, may materially and
adversely impact the Offered Interests, including without limitation, as a result of the holders of
Offered Interests bearing a larger portion of the expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Master
Partnership.
Holdbacks: Suspension. Millennium Management may, in its discretion, hold back a
portion of the withdrawal proceeds payable to a Limited Partner in respect of Offered Interests
being withdrawn (whether such withdrawal is voluntary or compulsory) to satisfy contingent or
expected liabilities.
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-20
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003951
EFTA00239283
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
In addition, withdrawals may be suspended if Millennium Management or the
Administrator reasonably deems it appropriate to do so to ensure compliance with applicable anti-
money laundering regulations and in such other limited circumstances described herein. See
"Millennium USA's Organization, Management, Structure and Operations — Withdrawal Rights"
and "- Suspension for Anti-Money Laundering Purposes." A breach of a covenant under an
agreement relating to indebtedness or similar obligations of the Master Partnership could trigger
an acceleration of such indebtedness or obligations, reducing or eliminating equity withdrawals
from the Master Partnership by Millennium USA. See "Certain Risk Factors Relating to an
Investment in the Master Partnership - Certain Market and Investment Risks - Indebtedness" in
Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum.
Limitations on Transferability. As discussed below under "Suitability Requirements;
Limitations on Transferability of Interests of Millennium USA," the Offered Interests may not be
pledged, assigned, hypothecated, sold, exchanged or transferred (each, a "Transfer") without the
prior written consent ofMillennium Management, which consent may be withheld in the discretion
ofMillennium Management or made subject to such conditions as may be imposed by Millennium
Management in its sole discretion. Any attempted Transfer without such consent may be treated
as void or may subject such Offered Interests to a compulsory withdrawal. Millennium
Management does not expect to consent to any Transfer that does not meet the requirements set
forth below under "Suitability Requirements; Limitations on Transferability of Interests of
Millennium USA - Limitations on Transfer; Restrictions on Pledging Offered Interests".
Millennium Management reserves the right in its sole discretion to determine whether a
Transfer will preserve "high water marks" and holding periods that were applicable to the
transferor. Prospective purchasers and prospective transferees must represent that they are
purchasing the Offered Interests for investment and meet other suitability requirements as
Millennium Management and/or the Administrator, as applicable, considers appropriate. There is
no independent market for the purchase or sale of Offered Interests, and none is expected to
develop. All of these factors increase the risk that an investor will not be able to liquidate or
monetize its investment in the Offered Interests quickly or at a price that approximates the fair
market value of the Offered Interests.
Compensation of Millennium Management. The Incentive Allocation (defined below
under "Allocation of Gains and Losses") may, under some circumstances, create an incentive to
cause Millennium Management and the Master Partnership to make investments that are riskier or
more speculative than would be the case if such compensation were not performance-based,
particularly in any period after losses have been suffered. Further, individual Portfolio Managers
(as defined in Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum) who are generally compensated based
on their performance, may have similar incentives to engage in more speculative activities than
would be the case if such compensation were not performance-based.
In addition, because Millennium Management's Incentive Allocation is calculated on a
basis that includes unrealized appreciation (and depreciation) of Millennium USA's assets, it may
be greater than it would be if the allocation were based solely on realized gains.
As discussed below under "Fees and Expenses Relating to Millennium USA," Millennium
USA indirectly will be responsible for a (generally pro rata) portion of the expenses, salaries,
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-21
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003952
EFTA00239284
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
fringe benefits, bonuses, fees and performance-based compensation (collectively
"Compensation") paid to the Portfolio Managers and other employees of, and consultants to the
Master Partnership and its affiliates. Compensation expenses will also generally include
management or "base" fees charged by Portfolio Managers or third party funds and other
compensation paid to personnel who assist in overseeing groups of Portfolio Managers (e.g., the
head of a particular strategy), which is based on the overall performance of such Portfolio
Managers. This obligation in respect of Compensation is separate from and in addition to the
Incentive Allocation.
Pass-Through of Expenses. Partners of Millennium USA bear their respective allocable
portions of Millennium USA's (through its investment in the Master Partnership) generally pro
rata portion of the Master Partnership's costs and expenses as well as all of Millennium USA's
costs and expenses (including the amounts payable to affiliates of Millennium Management).
Millennium USA's allocable portion of expenses will generally be determined based on the assets
of Millennium USA in proportion to the assets of other "feeder funds." This structure may create
less of an incentive for Millennium Management to reduce operating and Compensation expenses
than an alternative structure (such as a fixed management fee based on the amount of assets under
management) would. (See "Fees and Expenses Relating to Millennium USA" and "Related-Party
Transactions and Other Accounts; Conflicts" in Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum.)
Distributions in Kind. Millennium Management does not currently intend to, but may, in
its discretion, distribute securities or other property of Millennium USA (including interests in a
special purpose vehicle or similar entity formed for the purpose) in lieu of, or in combination with,
cash upon any withdrawal. The value of assets distributed in-kind may increase or decrease before
they are able to be sold by the withdrawing Limited Partner. Assets distributed in-kind may not
be readily marketable or saleable and may have to be held by the Limited Partners for an indefinite
period of time.
Contingency Reserves and Holdbacks. Millennium Management may, at any time or
times, establish reserves (whether or not in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAAP")) for estimated or accrued expenses, liabilities or contingencies, including in
connection with the dissolution of Millennium USA or any downsizing of Millennium USA
following a Trigger Event (as defined herein). If reserves are established that are not in accordance
with GAAP, they will be treated in the same manner as reserves that are in accordance with GAAP,
i.e., in the period in which they are taken they shall be treated as an expense of Millennium USA
(and, other than in connection with the dissolution of Millennium USA or any downsizing of
Millennium USA following a Trigger Event, will reduce the net assets of Millennium USA and
related Incentive Allocation (if applicable)), and, if and to the extent that they are subsequently
reversed they will be taken into income in the period of such reversal (and will to that extent
increase the net assets of Millennium USA and related Incentive Allocation (if applicable)). At
the time such reserve is taken, Millennium USA may (but is not required to) provide that income
from any subsequent reversal will be attributed solely to persons who were invested when the
reserve was taken. The establishment of such reserves will not insulate any portion of Millennium
USA's assets from being at risk, and the Master Partnership may make investment decisions
relating to assets so reserved as it determines appropriate.
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-22
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003953
EFTA00239285
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
In addition to the power to establish reserves, Millennium Management, in its discretion,
may hold back a portion of the amount payable to a Limited Partner in respect of a withdrawal
(whether such withdrawal is voluntary or compulsory) to satisfy contingent or expected liabilities.
The amount of the withdrawal proceeds held back will be determined by Millennium Management,
in its sole discretion, taking into account such factors as it considers relevant with respect to any
contingent or expected liability. Such holdbacks will reduce the amount paid to a withdrawing
Limited Partner. The unused portion of any holdback will be distributed to the Limited Partner to
which the holdback applied after Millennium Management has determined that the need therefor
has ceased.
Investment in the Master Partnership by Related Parties of Millennium Management. The
principal, senior officers and certain employees of Millennium Management and its affiliates, and
other related parties, may invest in, or have an interest in the returns of, Millennium USA and the
other feeder funds through a number of channels, including in certain cases through deferred
compensation arrangements. Some of these investments have been leveraged through the
extension of credit by a third party to the investment vehicle through which these parties invest.
In connection with structuring these investments, the third parties typically make an investment in
a class of shares or interests of the relevant feeder fund that is entitled to more favorable liquidation
and other rights than other classes under certain circumstances. For example, upon the occurrence
of certain events, including declines in the capital of the Master Partnership or such feeder fund
below pre-determined thresholds and changes in senior management, such extensions of credit can
be terminated by the counterparties and the shares or interests of the feeder fund pledged to or held
by the counterparties (up to an amount necessary to repay the extension of financing) can be
redeemed or withdrawn without the imposition of contractual limits on redemptions or
withdrawals or early redemption or withdrawal charges, on either a monthly or quarterly basis. In
addition, Portfolio Managers (and related personnel) are given the opportunity to invest in entities
through which they are able to achieve the rate of return of their own strategies. Such investments
only share in the expenses generally allocated to such portfolio for purposes of determining
compensation of Portfolio Managers and not the expenses of Millennium USA or the Master
Partnership generally. Such entities could also lead to potential conflicts of interests. (See
"Related-Party Transactions and Other Accounts; Conflicts; Portfolio Manager Investment in Own
Strategies" in Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum.) While Millennium Management
believes that in substantially all situations these kinds of relationships are useful in aligning the
interests of management and Portfolio Managers with those of investors, they can lead to situations
where the interests of management or Portfolio Managers diverge from those of other investors.
Master-Feeder Structure; Feeder Funds with Differing Liquidity Terms. Millennium USA
generally invests through a "master-feeder" structure in the Master Partnership. In addition to the
risks presented by differences in the terms of the Offered Interests and Other Interests, the "master-
feeder" fund structure presents certain unique risks to investors. For example, substantial
withdrawals of capital by a feeder fund from the Master Partnership may impact the other feeder
funds. Furthermore, certain feeder funds, including Millennium Global Estate, have different
liquidity terms than Millennium USA. (See "Certain Risk Factors Relating to an Investment in
the Fund; Business and Structural Risks—Possible Effect of Withdrawals and Redemptions" in
Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum.)
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-23
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003954
EFTA00239286
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Tax-Exempt Investors. Certain prospective purchasers may be subject to federal and state
laws, rules and regulations which may regulate their participation in Millennium USA, or their
engaging directly, or indirectly through an investment in Millennium USA, in investment
strategies of the types which the Master Partnership or Portfolio Managers may utilize from time-
to-time (e.g., leverage, the purchase and sale of options and limited diversification). While
Millennium USA believes the Master Partnership's investment program is generally appropriate
for tax-exempt organizations for which an investment in Millennium USA would otherwise be
suitable, each type of exempt organization may be subject to different laws, rules and regulations,
and prospective purchasers should consult with their own advisers as to the advisability and tax
consequences of an investment in Millennium USA (and consider the alternative of investing in
Millennium International). Since the Master Partnership is permitted to borrow, tax-exempt
Limited Partners may incur income tax liability to the extent of their share of Millennium USA's
share of the Master Partnership's "unrelated business taxable income." Trustees or administrators
of entities subject to ERISA and other tax-exempt entities should consult their own legal and tax
advisers.
Identity and Reporting of Beneficial Ownership; Withholding on Certain Payments. In
order to avoid a U.S. withholding tax of 30% on certain payments (including payments of gross
proceeds) made with respect to certain actual and deemed U.S. investments, the Master Partnership
has registered with the Internal Revenue Service (the "Service") and generally will be required to
identify, and report information with respect to, certain direct and indirect U.S. account holders
(including debtholders and equityholders). Limited Partners should consult their own tax advisors
regarding the possible implications of these rules on their investment in the Offered Interests.
Suitability Requirements; Limitations on Transferability of Interests of
Millennium USA
Suitability Requirements
Each investor is required to represent that the Offered Interests are being acquired for its
own account, for investment, and not with a view to resale or distribution. The Offered Interests
are suitable investments only for sophisticated investors for which an investment in Millennium
USA does not constitute a complete investment program, and that fully understand, are willing to
assume, and have the financial resources necessary to withstand the risks involved in Millennium
USA's investment program and to bear the potential loss of their entire investment in the Offered
Interests.
Investors in Millennium USA must be "accredited investors" as defined in Rule 501 under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and "qualified purchasers" as such
term is defined in Section 2(aX51) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
"Investment Company Act"), and must meet other suitability requirements set forth in the
Subscription Agreement.
Each prospective purchaser is urged to consult with its own advisers to determine the
suitability of an investment in the Offered Interests for that prospective purchaser, and to evaluate
the relationship of such an investment to the prospective purchaser's overall investment program
and financial and tax position. Each prospective purchaser will be required to represent that, after
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-24
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003955
EFTA00239287
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
all necessary advice and analysis, its investment in Millennium USA is suitable and appropriate,
in light of the foregoing considerations. Prior to any subscription for Offered Interests, each
prospective purchaser must represent in writing, by completing and signing the Subscription
Agreement, that it meets the suitability standards referred to in this Confidential Memorandum.
Millennium Management has the right to reject a subscription for any reason or for no reason, even
if the prospective purchaser satisfies Millennium USA's suitability requirements.
Limitations on Transfer; Restrictions on Pledging Offered Interests
Each investor must bear the economic risk of the investment for an extended period of time
(subject to the limited rights of withdrawal described herein).
Each investor will be required to agree that (i) no Offered Interests, nor any interest therein,
may be Transferred without the prior written consent of Millennium Management (except by
operation of law), which consent may be withheld in the discretion ofMillennium Management or
made subject to such conditions as may be imposed by Millennium Management in its sole
discretion, (ii) prior to considering any request to permit transfer of Offered Interests, Millennium
Management and/or the Administrator, as applicable, may require the submission by the proposed
transferee of a certification as to the matters referred to in the preceding paragraphs as well as such
other documents, representations or undertakings as Millennium Management and/or the
Administrator considers appropriate, and (iii) any attempted pledge, transfer or assignment of
Offered Interests in violation of the foregoing restrictions shall be invalid and void ab initio.
Transferred Interests generally will be deemed to have been purchased as of the date of the transfer
for all purposes, including calculating the Incentive Allocation, unless otherwise agreed to by
Millennium Management, in its sole discretion. Millennium Management may in its sole
discretion permit certain transferred interests to maintain their original purchase date and high
water mark. Millennium Management and/or the Administrator on its behalf may refuse to issue,
register or permit the transfer of Offered Interests if it is not satisfied that such issuance,
registration or transfer is consistent with the best interests of Millennium USA. In addition, no
Offered Interests may be issued, registered or transferred to any non-U.S. Person, directly or
indirectly. Millennium Management may, in its sole discretion, elect to charge a Limited Partner
the costs (including attorneys' fees) related to any requested transfer, assignment, pledge or
encumbrance of the Limited Partner's Interests.
Millennium Management will not consent to any Transfer other than a Transfer (i) in
circumstances in which the tax basis of the Offered Interest in the hands of the transferee is
determined, in whole or in part, by reference to its tax basis in the hands of the transferor, (ii) to
members of such Partner's immediate family (brothers, sisters, spouse, parents and children), or
(iii) as a distribution from a qualified retirement plan or an individual retirement account (each, a
"Permissible Transfer"), unless Millennium Management determines that the proposed Transfer
will not cause Millennium USA to be treated as a "publicly traded partnership" taxable as a
corporation for Federal tax purposes. Without limiting the foregoing, unless otherwise agreed to
by Millennium Management, Millennium Management generally does not expect to consent to
any Transfer (other than a Permissible Transfer) unless the Transfer (i) is between existing limited
partners effective as of the beginning of the next fiscal quarter after 65 days' prior written notice
to Millennium USA and the Administrator, and (ii) is based on the net asset value of the Offered
Interests being transferred as of the effective date of the Transfer.

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Holders of Offered Interests that desire to pledge, transfer, assign, or otherwise dispose of
Offered Interests should assume that they will not receive any help or assistance from Millennium
Management in that regard.
Millennium USA's Investment Program and Strategy
The investment objective ofMillennium USA is to achieve above-average appreciation by
opportunistically trading and investing in a wide variety of securities, instruments, and other
investment opportunities and engaging in a broad array of trading and investment strategies.
THERE ARE NO SUBSTANTIVE LIMITS ON THE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES THAT
MAY BE PURSUED BY MILLENNIUM USA.
The Master Partnership's investment program and the strategies it employs are described
in Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum and, except as otherwise indicated in this Part One
of the Confidential Memorandum, should be construed as also being the investment program and
strategies ofMillennium USA insofar as Millennium USA invests through the Master Partnership.
Millennium USA may directly engage in any investment activities in which the Master Partnership
engages (as more fully described in Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum).
Use of Proceeds by Millennium USA
Net proceeds received by Millennium USA from the sale of Offered Interests generally
will be invested and otherwise utilized by Millennium USA as described in this Confidential
Memorandum. This means that the net proceeds will be invested primarily in the Master
Partnership and used by the Master Partnership in its investment program and will be used by
Millennium USA and the Master Partnership for expenses. A portion of the net proceeds received
by Millennium USA may be employed in direct investments made by Millennium USA. (See
"Millennium USA's Investment Program and Strategy.")
Millennium USA's Organization, Management, Structure, and Operations
Organization
Millennium USA is a Delaware limited partnership formed in November 1997.
Millennium USA's principal office is located at 666 Fifth Avenue, 8th Floor, New York, New
York 10103-0899.
Master-Feeder Relationship
As discussed in Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum under "The Master
Partnership's Organization — Organization," the master-feeder relationship between the Master
Partnership and Millennium USA has been structured, among other reasons, to give U.S. taxpayers
an opportunity to invest in the Master Partnership indirectly.
Capital Structure
Millennium USA and Millennium International and other existing feeder funds have, and
feeder funds that may be formed in the future may have, a variety of classes (and sub-classes) of
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-26
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003957
EFTA00239289
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
interests and shares, respectively, outstanding, and may offer additional classes (and sub-classes)
of shares and interests in the future, and, in some instances, have additional contractual (or "side
letter") agreements with particular investors. The classes of interests issued by Millennium USA
other than the Offered Interests that are outstanding as of the date hereof are set forth in Appendix
I. The provisions of the different classes of outstanding shares or interests, and of such contractual
undertakings, are not uniform, with the effect that some investors in the funds to some degree have
different rights and entitlements from those of other investors, which may be true even though the
fundamental economic terms of the investments are otherwise identical. Such differing provisions
relate primarily to withdrawal rights (the frequency of permissible withdrawals, the notice period
required for withdrawals, and the circumstances under which accelerated withdrawal is
permissible) and the detail and frequency with which information is provided regarding returns or
broad portfolio segment information. In the sole discretion of Millennium Management, (i)
Millennium USA may issue other classes of interests in the future that may differ in terms of,
among other things, denomination of currency, the fees/allocations charged, minimum
commitment amounts, withdrawal rights and other rights, (ii) Millennium Management may
establish and designate such new classes of interests without the approval of the Limited Partners,
(iii) Millennium Management will determine the terms of such classes and (iv) Millennium
Management may combine classes of interests or convert one class into another class, in each case,
so long as such action does not adversely affect the terms of the other classes of interests in any
material respect. Millennium International and Millennium USA do not generally enter into
contractual arrangements or undertakings providing for withdrawal rights materially different from
those generally available (subject to exceptions in order to address legal, regulatory, tax or similar
requirements applicable to certain investors and in connection with deferred compensation
arrangements or similar feeder fund investments as described under"Certain Risk Factors Relating
to Millennium USA — Investment in the Master Partnership by Millennium Management and its
Affiliates and Portfolio Managers").
WithdrawalRights
Offered Interests generally may be withdrawn on either the "Quarterly Withdrawal
Schedule" or the "Annual Withdrawal Schedule," each as described below. Millennium USA
may, in its sole and absolute discretion, permit a withdrawal of Offered Interests at intervals, in
amounts and pursuant to such notice terms other than those set forth below or convert Offered
Interests into interests in another class with substantially the same rights and characteristics if it
determines that such a withdrawal or conversion would be permitted by applicable law; provided
that Millennium Management determines that such action will not cause Millennium USA or the
Master Partnership to be treated as a "publicly traded partnership" taxable as a corporation for
Federal tax purposes. Withdrawal requests are irrevocable upon receipt by Millennium USA,
subject to Millennium USA's sole discretion to permit revocation in whole or in part. Withdrawal
requests received outside of the specified notice period for a particular Quarterly Withdrawal Date
or Annual Withdrawal Schedule Date will be deemed null and void and will not be honored. In
addition, a withdrawal request received for an amount in excess of the maximum amount
withdrawable will be honored only to the extent of such maximum amount, and the request as to
the excess amount will be deemed null and void and will not be honored.

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Quarterly Withdrawal Schedule
A Limited Partner may elect to withdraw up to 5% of the net asset value of such Limited
Partner's Offered Interests as of the end of any calendar quarter (a "Quarterly Withdrawal") by
providing written notice at least 90 days and no more than 180 days prior to the end of the
applicable calendar quarter (a "Quarterly Withdrawal Date"). In addition, if as a result of
Quarterly Withdrawals (whether or not consecutive) the net asset value of a Limited Partner's
Offered Interests is equal to 5% or less of its aggregate subscription amounts for Offered Interests,
a Limited Partner may withdraw the balance of such Offered Interests by providing written notice
at least 90 days and no more than 180 days prior to the end of a calendar quarter. All notices must
be provided to both Millennium USA and the Administrator.
Annual Withdrawal Schedule
A Limited Partner may elect to withdraw the entire net asset value of such Limited
Partner's Offered Interests over a five (5) year period by making five consecutive annual
withdrawal requests, with proceeds paid on a calendar quarterly basis within each such annual
period as set forth in the table below (each annual period, an "Annual Withdrawal Period," and
each calendar quarter end withdrawal date within an Annual Withdrawal Period, an "Annual
Withdrawal Schedule Date"). A Limited Partner may elect to commence an Annual Withdrawal
Period as of any calendar quarter, but such Annual Withdrawal Period does not have to coincide
with a calendar year. A Limited Partner electing to withdraw Offered Interests pursuant to the
Annual Withdrawal Schedule must provide written notice to both Millennium USA and the
Administrator at least 90 days and no more than 180 days (i) prior to the First Annual Withdrawal
Schedule Date of the First Annual Withdrawal Period and (ii) prior to the First Annual Withdrawal
Schedule Date of each subsequent Annual Withdrawal Period.
During each Annual Withdrawal Period, withdrawal amounts will be calculated based on
the net asset value of such Limited Partner's Offered Interests as of each Annual Withdrawal
Schedule Date (excluding the net asset value of any additional Offered Interests subscribed for or
otherwise received following the commencement of the Annual Withdrawal Schedule) as follows:

Period
If a Limited Partner on the Annual Withdrawal Schedule does not make five consecutive
annual requests, or does not provide timely notice for an Annual Withdrawal Period, any future
withdrawal pursuant to the Annual Withdrawal Schedule will be treated as starting a new First
Annual Withdrawal Period and will be subject to all applicable terms and requirements (including
required annual notices) of the Annual Withdrawal Schedule. In addition, if a Limited Partner on
the Annual Withdrawal Schedule subscribes for or otherwise receives additional Offered Interests
during an Annual Withdrawal Period, any future withdrawal request pursuant to the Annual
Withdrawal Schedule as to such additional Offered Interests will start with a new First Annual
Withdrawal Period and will be subject to all applicable terms and requirements (including required
annual notices) of the Annual Withdrawal Schedule.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Limited Partner that has made consecutive Quarterly
Withdrawals of 5% of such Limited Partner's Offered Interests and then elects to transition as of
the following calendar quarter end to an Annual Withdrawal Schedule will receive credit for the
number of consecutive 5% Quarterly Withdrawals only as follows:
• A Limited Partner that has made at least four but fewer than eight consecutive 5% Quarterly
Withdrawals may elect to commence on the Annual Withdrawal Schedule beginning with
the Second Annual Withdrawal Period.
• A Limited Partner that has made at least eight consecutive 5% Quarterly Withdrawals (and
any number of consecutive 5% Quarterly Withdrawals in excess thereof) may elect to
commence on the Annual Withdrawal Schedule beginning with the Third Annual
Withdrawal Period.
A Limited Partner electing to transition from the Quarterly Withdrawal Schedule to the
Annual Withdrawal Schedule in accordance with the foregoing must provide prior written notice
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-29
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003960
EFTA00239292
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
to both Millennium USA and the Administrator at least 90 days and no more than 180 days prior
to the First Annual Withdrawal Schedule Date, provided that such First Annual Withdrawal
Schedule Date mug be one full calendar quarter following such Limited Partner's last 5%
Quarterly Withdrawal.
A Limited Partner may only request a withdrawal of Offered Interests as of any calendar
quarter end with the requisite notice pursuant to either the Quarterly Withdrawal Schedule or the
Annual Withdrawal Schedule, and not both schedules. A Limited Partner is entitled to no more
than one (1) withdrawal of Offered Interests per calendar quarter pursuant to either the Quarterly
Withdrawal Schedule or the Annual Withdrawal Schedule, and no more than four (4) withdrawals
per 12-month period.
Withdrawal Price: Payments. The price at which Offered Interests will be withdrawn (the
"Withdrawal Price") will be the net asset value of the applicable series of the Offered Interests,
determined net of any applicable Incentive Allocation as of the close of business at the end of the
applicable calendar quarter.
Millennium USA generally will pay 95% of the withdrawal payment within 30 days
following the applicable withdrawal date (whether pursuant to the Quarterly Withdrawal Schedule
or the Annual Withdrawal Schedule) and generally will withhold 5% of any withdrawal payment
pending closing ofMillennium USA's books and reconciliation of the amounts due for the quarter
(in each case, computed on the basis of unaudited data as of the withdrawal date, and subject to
any applicable reserves or holdbacks). However, if a withdrawal date coincides with a date as of
which Millennium USA's financial statements are audited, the withdrawal payment will generally
be made, subject to audit adjustments, after completion of the audit. If the amount of a withdrawal
exceeds 90% of the aggregate value of the Limited Partner's Offered Interests (after taking into
account any adjustments made in connection with the audit) immediately prior to the applicable
withdrawal date, then Millennium USA generally will withhold from the withdrawal payment 10%
of the aggregate value. The balance will be paid (subject to audit adjustments), within 30 days
after the completion of the next audit of Millennium USA, subject to any applicable reserves or
holdbacks.
Balances held until following the completion of an audit, if any, will be paid with interest,
calculated from the applicable withdrawal date until the payment date at the average (calculated
weekly) per annum short-term (13-week) Treasury Bill rate.
Millennium Management may, in its discretion, elect to withhold smaller amounts than
those described above or to accelerate the repayment of withheld balances.
Please be advised that it is generally the policy of the Administrator that all withdrawal
proceeds are paid to the account from which the monies were originally debited, unless otherwise
agreed upon by Millennium Management and the Administrator. Payments generally will not be
made to third party accounts that are not in the name of the withdrawing Limited Partner, unless
otherwise required under law.

EFTA00239293
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Withdrawals by an investor that holds more than one series of Offered Interests will be
deemed to be made on a first-in first-out basis absent specific instructions to the contrary from the
investor.
In the event of the death of Mr. Englander, the death benefits distributable to the Master
Partnership from "keyman" life insurance upon Mr. Englander's life will be deemed to be assets
of the Master Partnership as of the date immediately prior to his death and therefore will be
included in the calculation of net asset value of Millennium USA.
Limited Liquidity. Other Interests generally are significantly more liquid than the Offered
Interests. For instance and without limitation, unlike the Other Interests, the Offered Interests have
no special withdrawal right in the event of the death, disability, adjudication of incompetency,
bankruptcy, insolvency or withdrawal from the general partner of the Master Partnership of Israel
A. Englander (a "Trigger Event"), or the occurrence of any other key person event. The exercise
of such a special withdrawal right by holders of Other Interests will not result in, or be deemed to
create, any special withdrawal right for the holders of the Offered Interests (in their capacity as
such). Please see "Certain Risk Factors Relating to Millennium USA" — "Different Terms of
Interests" and "Limited Liquidity" for additional information regarding such differences in
liquidity and the potential implications for holders of Offered Interests.
Other Withdrawal Rights. In addition, investors in other classes of Interests of Millennium
USA may withdraw all of their capital accounts at such other time and upon such terms as
permitted in respect of such class in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.
Holdbacks. Millennium Management, in its discretion, may hold back a portion of the
amount payable to a Limited Partner in respect of a withdrawal (whether such withdrawal is
voluntary or compulsory) to satisfy contingent or expected liabilities. The amount of the
withdrawal proceeds held back will be determined by Millennium Management in its sole
discretion taking into account such factors as it considers relevant with respect to any contingent
or expected liability. Such holdbacks will reduce the amount paid to a withdrawing Limited
Partner. The unused portion of any holdback will be distributed to the Limited Partner to which
the holdback applied if and to the extent that Millennium Management subsequently determines
that the need therefor has ceased.
Withdrawal or Transfer Charges. In the event that an investor makes a complete or partial
withdrawal or Transfer on a date other than the regular withdrawal dates applicable to the particular
class of Interests of Millennium USA, Millennium USA has the right to charge such withdrawing
or transferring investor any legal, accounting and administrative, registrar and transfer costs
associated with such withdrawal or Transfer of all or a portion of its Interests, and in that
connection may establish reserves for contingencies, including general reserves for unspecified
contingencies.
Deferral of Withdrawal Payments. Payments of withdrawal proceeds may be suspended if
Millennium Management and/or the Administrator determine that they will violate applicable law,
including any applicable rules or regulations of any regulatory agency or exchange, or any contract
or agreement to which Millennium USA or any affiliate is then a party.

Suspensionfor Anti-Money Laundering Purposes
Withdrawals by any investor purchasing Offered Interests hereunder may be suspended if
Millennium Management and/or the Administrator reasonably deem it appropriate to do so to
ensure compliance with anti-money laundering regulations applicable to Millennium USA,
Millennium Management, the Administrator or any ofMillennium USA's other service providers.
Please be advised that the Administrator may require any additional documentation, as reasonably
necessary, to process a withdrawal request.
Compulsory Withdrawal
Millennium Management reserves the right, upon not less than five days' prior written
notice (unless Millennium Management determines that it is necessary to reduce such period in
order to comply with applicable law or similar requirements), to require any investor to withdraw
all or any portion of its capital account at any time for any reason or no reason. Any such
compulsory withdrawal will be effective as of the date specified in the notice.
Conversion of Of ered Interests
Millennium USA from time to time may, for administrative convenience or any other
reason, and without any consent of or notice to Limited Partners, redesignate and convert all or
any portion of the outstanding Offered Interests into another class of Interests ofMillennium USA
with substantially the same rights and characteristics.
Management of Millennium USA
The general partner ofMillennium USA and the general partner of the Master Partnership
is Millennium Management, a Delaware limited liability company. As discussed under "Certain
Legal and Regulatory Matters Relating to the Master Partnership" in Part Two of this Confidential
Memorandum, Millennium Management is the commodity pool operator and commodity trading
advisor of Millennium USA and the Master Partnership and has general responsibility and
authority for supervising all aspects of Millennium USA's and the Master Partnership's business
and operations. Millennium Management and other affiliated entities that participate in the
management of the Master Partnership's assets are collectively referred to herein as
"Millennium." The Limited Partners have no right to act on behalf of Millennium USA or the
Master Partnership in connection with any matter.
Millennium Management has the right to dissolve Millennium USA at any time (including
during a fiscal year), for any reason or for no reason. In the case of such termination, Millennium
USA's net assets (less reserves) will be distributed to the Limited Partners within 30 days after the
completion of a final audit ofMillennium USA's books (which must be performed within 90 days
of the date of dissolution).
Biographies of the principal and senior management of Millennium Management can be

The Administrator
Millennium USA and the Master Partnership have each entered into an agreement (the
"Services Agreement") with an independent third-party administrator, SS&C Financial Services
LLC (the "Administrator").
Pursuant to the Services Agreement, the Administrator is responsible, under the overall
supervision of Millennium Management, for matters pertaining to the administration of
Millennium USA, including, among other things: (i) the calculation and issuance of the net asset
values ofMillennium USA (and each class, sub-class and series of Interests thereof) on a monthly
basis, based on information provided by Millennium USA and Millennium Management; (ii) the
recording of transactions and the reconciliation of cash, positions and transactions between
Millennium USA's and the Master Partnership's books and records and their respective trading
counterparties, prime brokers and custodians; (iii) the calculation ofMillennium USA's profit and
loss; (iv) registrar and transfer agency services, as more fully described below; and (v) year-end
support services with respect to Millennium USA's audit and tax processes, as may be required.
The administrative services provided by the Administrator include, among other things, (i)
processing and reviewing subscription documents (and ancillary documentation provided in
connection therewith) submitted by prospective investors; (ii) performing checks of prospective
investors against the Department of Treasury Office of Financial Assets Control Specialty
Designated National Lists; (iii) generally performing all actions related to the issuance, transfer
and withdrawal of the Offered Interests; (iv) distributing monthly statements to Limited Partners;
and (v) performing certain other administrative and clerical services in connection with the
administration ofMillennium USA. The office of the Administrator is located at One South Road,
Harrison, New York 10528.
The Administrator may have relationships with providers of technology, data or other
services to Millennium USA and may receive economic and/or other benefits in connection
therewith. The Administrator may subcontract with agents selected by the Administrator in good
faith and with reasonable care for administrative and certain other services; provided that the
Administrator gives Millennium USA prior written notice of the identify of such agent and, with
respect to the performance of any material service, the opportunity to consent to the use of any
such agent prior to the performance of any such services.
The Administrator does not act as guarantor of Millennium USA's Offered Interests.
Moreover, the Administrator is not responsible for any of the trading or investment decisions of
Millennium USA (all of which are made by Millennium Management), or the effect of such trading
decisions on the performance of Millennium USA.
The Administrator will receive a monthly fee from Millennium USA. Certain
extraordinary out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrator may also be charged to Millennium
USA in accordance with the Services Agreement.
The Services Agreement contains customary indemnification provisions whereby
Millennium USA has agreed to indemnify the Administrator (and its officers, directors, investors,
beneficiaries or employees, and any of their successors or assigns) against any and all losses,
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-33

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
claims, judgments, liabilities, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys'
fees) and amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with the Services Agreement, unless
the action or omission giving rise thereto is found by a final determination of an arbitrator,
mediator, or court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from the fraud, gross
negligence or willful misconduct by such indemnified party in connection with the performance
of its duties and obligations under the Services Agreement. The Administrator's total liability in
connection with the performance of the Services Agreement will be limited to the then average
monthly services fee that was paid during the preceding 12 months, multiplied by 36.
Fees and Expenses Relating to Millennium USA
Millennium USA is, directly, or through its investment in the Master Partnership,
responsible for all expenses, without limitation, directly or indirectly, in connection with its
operation, including, without limitation:
• all fees and expenses incurred in connection with any transactions, engagements,
and other agreements that it enters into on its own behalf, including, among other
things, costs and expenses of the Administrator, expenses incurred in connection
with the private placement of Interests in Millennium USA (other than placement
fees, if any); and
• a generally pro rata portion of all fees and expenses incurred by Millennium
Management and its affiliates with respect to, or in connection with (e.g. through
the operation of and the provision of services to), the Master Partnership and its
affiliates or incurred directly by the Master Partnership or jointly by multiple feeder
funds. See "The Master Partnership's Fees and Expenses" in Part Two of this
Confidential Memorandum for a description and non-exhaustive list of such
expenses, including, without limitation, the following general expense categories:
compensation and fringe benefits payable to employees, and fees payable to others
providing services to the Master Partnership; expenses related to computers,
equipment and technology; expenses related to maintaining offices, including
leases and fixtures; insurance premiums; expenses related to investment activities;
accounting, valuation, audit, tax and legal expenses; fees and expenses paid for the
investment advisory services of affiliated entities that participate in the
management of the Master Partnership's assets; and other miscellaneous expenses.
This means that the Limited Partners of Millennium USA will each bear their respective
pro rata portions of all of Millennium USA's costs, fees, and expenses (except with respect to
Investor-Related Taxes) through reductions in their capital accounts.
Millennium generally seeks to allocate expenses among Millennium USA and the other
feeder funds, including Millennium International on a pro rata basis according to the relative
values of their interests in the Master Partnership, but a particular expense (e.g., Investor-Related
Taxes) may be allocated differently if Millennium determines in its discretion that it would be fair
and reasonable to do so under the circumstances. In considering whether to allocate an expense to
certain feeder funds or pro rata among all the feeder funds, Millennium will consider factors such
as whether the resource or services to which such expense relates might ultimately directly or
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-34
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003965
EFTA00239297
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
indirectly benefit one or more feeder funds other than the initial beneficiary, whether such expense
is de minimis in nature, and/or whether the expense associated with determining and administering
such allocation would likely be disproportionate relative to the actual expense to be allocated.
"Investor-Related Tax" means any tax withheld from Millennium USA or the Master
Partnership or paid over by Millennium USA or the Master Partnership, in each case, directly or
indirectly, with respect to or on behalf of a Partner or a direct or indirect beneficial owner of the
Master Partnership, and interest, penalties and/or any additional amounts with respect thereto,
including (i) a tax that is determined based on the status, action or inaction (including the failure
of a Partner or a direct or indirect beneficial owner of the Master Partnership to provide information
to eliminate or reduce withholding or other taxes) of a Partner or a direct or indirect beneficial
owner of the Master Partnership, or (ii) an "imputed underpayment" within the meaning of Section
6225 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and any other similar tax,
attributable to a Partner or a direct or indirect beneficial owner of the Master Partnership, as
determined by Millennium Management in its sole discretion.
Certain expenses, including expenses for office space, services, personnel, equipment and
software, among other things, incurred by Millennium in connection with the provision of
investment management, administrative or other services to Millennium USA and other funds,
accounts or third parties or otherwise in connection with the activities of Millennium will be
allocated among Millennium USA and the recipients of the services that generate such items of
expense. Millennium will seek to allocate such expenses fairly and equitably among Millennium
USA and such other recipients based upon certain estimates and assumptions that Millennium
believes are reasonable and appropriate, but which may be imprecise and may result in Millennium
USA's bearing a larger portion of such expenses than if they were calculated in a different manner.
In determining what expenses are allocable to Millennium USA and other funds, accounts or third
parties or otherwise in connection with the activities of Millennium, the need to allocate common
expenses may present a conflict. Millennium will attempt to mitigate any such conflicts by making
allocations and other judgments on a basis that it believes to be fair and reasonable under the
circumstances, although it may not be possible to fully or partially mitigate each such conflict, and
such conflicts will not necessarily be resolved in favor of the Limited Partners. (See "Related-
Party Transactions and Other Accounts; Conflicts; Allocation of Expenses Among Feeder Funds
and Other Accounts" in Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum.) Assets of Millennium,
including, without limitation, intellectual property developed in connection with services provided
to Millennium USA and the Master Partnership, may be utilized in the conduct of other business
activities in the sole discretion of Millennium without compensation or reimbursement to
Millennium USA, including (without limitation) reimbursement of the costs incurred in the
development of such assets, but subject to the appropriate allocation of ongoing expenses in
accordance with Millennium's expense allocation policies as in effect from time to time.
As described above under "Interests Offered; Terms of the Offering — Allocations of Gains
and Losses," at the end of each fiscal year of Millennium USA, or at such other date during a fiscal
year as of which the following reallocation is required, 20% of the aggregate Net Capital
Appreciation of Millennium USA for the year will be reallocated to Millennium Management as
its Incentive Allocation. The Incentive Allocation is calculated on the basis of realized and
unrealized gains and losses and after all expenses, including a pro rata portion of the Master
Partnership's expenses, as described above, are paid or accrued (See "Interests Offered; Terms of

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
the Offering — Allocations of Gains and Losses" and "Certain Risk Factors Relating to Millennium
USA - Incentive Allocation").
Allocation of Gains and Losses
A separate capital account will be created on the books of Millennium USA for, and in the
amount of, each capital contribution of a Partner. At the end of each Accounting Period' of
Millennium USA, any Net Capital Appreciation2 or Net Capital Depreciation; of Millennium USA,
after payment of expenses (see "Certain Risk Factors Relating to Millennium USA —
Compensation of Millennium Management" and "Fees and Expenses Relating to Millennium
USA"), will be tentatively credited or debited to each Partner (including Millennium Management)
in proportion to the opening balances of that Partner's capital account for such period (the Partner's
"Partnership Percentage"). At the end of each fiscal year of Millennium USA, or at such other
date during a fiscal year as of which the following reallocation is required, 20% of the aggregate
Net Capital Appreciation of Millennium USA attributable to the Offered Interests tentatively
credited to each Limited Partner's capital accounts (excluding, in Millennium Management's
discretion, capital accounts of Special Limited Partners4) for the year will be reallocated to the
capital accounts of Millennium Management as its "Incentive Allocation."
The Net Capital Appreciation upon which the calculation of an Incentive Allocation is
based is deemed reduced by the unrecovered balance, if any, in a Limited Partner's "Loss
Recovery Account." A Loss Recovery Account is a memorandum account, established for each
capital account of a Limited Partner upon its creation, the opening balance of which is zero. At
"AccountingPeriod" means the following periods: each Accounting Period shall commcncc immediately after
the close of the inunediately preceding Accounting Period: each Accounting Period shall close at the close of
business on the first to occur of (i) the last day of Millennium USA's fiscal quarter (which shall be the calendar
quarter). (ii) the date immediately prior to the effective dale of the admission of a new• Partner pursuant to the
Partnership Agreement. (iii) the date inunediately prior to the effective date of a Partner's capital contribution
pursuant to the Partnership Agreement. (iv) the effective date of any withdrawal by a Partner of capital pursuant
to the Partnership Agreement. (v) the date when Millennium USA shall dissolve or (iv) such other date prior to
dissolution as Millennium Management may from time to time determine in its discretion pursuant to the
Partnership Agreement.
"Net Capital Appreciation" means the increase in the value of Millennium USA's net assets. including
unrealized gains, from the beginning of each Accounting Period to the end of such Accounting Period (before
giving effect to any Investor-Related Taxes accrued or paid during such Accounting Period).
3
"Net Capital Depreciation" means the decrease in the value of Millennium USA's net assets, including
unrealized losses, from the beginning of each Accounting Period to the end of such Accounting Period (before
giving effect to any Investor-Related Taxes accrued or paid during such Accounting Period).
"Special Limited Partner" is defined as any Limited Partner who is a member, officer, director or employee
ofMillennium USA or the Master Partnership: any other Limited Partner. as determined in the sole discretion
of Millennium Management; Millennium Management or any person controlling, controlled by or under
common control with it or any member. officer, director or employee of such person (collectively, the
foregoing. "Affiliates"); immediate family of Israel A. Englander. the controlling trustee of Millennium
GroupManagement LLC (formerly, Millennium International Management GP LLC), the managing member
of Millennium Management. or trusts for the benefit of any member thereof: and any Limited Partner that is
an entity directly or indirectly controlled by Millennium Management or Affiliates.
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-36
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003967
EFTA00239299
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
each date that an Incentive Allocation is to be determined, the balance in each Loss Recovery
Account will include the aggregate Net Capital Depreciation since the last date on which a
calculation of the Incentive Allocation was made and be reduced, but not beyond zero, by
aggregate Net Capital Appreciation since such date. In the event that a Limited Partner with an
unrecovered balance in any of its Loss Recovery Accounts withdraws all or a portion of its related
capital accounts, the unrecovered balance in such Loss Recovery Accounts will be proportionately
reduced.
For purposes of determining allocations, including calculating the Incentive Allocation and
the balance in a Limited Partner's Loss Recovery Account, any Investor-Related Taxes related to
a Limited Partner shall be deemed distributed from the capital account of such Limited Partner to
such Limited Partner and shall not be deemed to be expenses that reduce Net Capital Appreciation,
increase Net Capital Depreciation or increase the balance of the Loss Recovery Account.
In connection with the (i) downsizing of Millennium USA following a Trigger Event, or
(ii) dissolution of Millennium USA, reserves for liabilities will be established for the estimated
costs of downsizing or liquidating assets and liabilities, such as (without limitation) payments
required as severance for personnel, or for termination of advisory or other agreements or contracts
or leases, and the like. However, such reserves, and all other related costs and expenses, will be
disregarded for the purpose of calculating Net Capital Appreciation or Net Capital Depreciation in
determining the amount of the Incentive Allocation. Reserves, and related costs and expenses
taken by the Master Partnership will also be reflected on the books of Millennium USA, and
similarly disregarded in calculating the Incentive Allocation. Any unused portion of a reserve
established in anticipation of possible downsizing or dissolution of Millennium USA that is not
expected to be used will be reversed after Millennium Management, in its sole discretion, has
determined that the need therefor has ceased.
If a Limited Partner withdraws all or a portion of any of its capital accounts other than at
the end of a fiscal year, an Incentive Allocation (the "Interim Year Incentive Allocation") with
respect to such capital accounts will be determined and allocated to the capital account of
Millennium Management on the effective distribution date for the period from the commencement
of Millennium USA's fiscal year through the effective date of distribution. The Interim Year
Incentive Allocation will be based upon the Net Capital Appreciation allocated to such capital
account for the applicable period, prorated for the portion of the capital accounts being withdrawn.
The next Incentive Allocation from the capital accounts of the Limited Partner (assuming that such
Incentive Allocation is not an additional Interim Year Incentive Allocation) will be allocated to
the capital account of Millennium Management as of the end of the fiscal year in which the Interim
Year Incentive Allocation occurs and will be calculated as follows: an amount equal to 20% of
the aggregate Net Capital Appreciation credited to the capital accounts of the Limited Partner from
the commencement of the fiscal year during which the Interim Year Incentive Allocation occurred
through the end of the fiscal year (disregarding the Interim Year Incentive Allocation to
Millennium Management). The amount of any Incentive Allocation from the capital accounts of
a Limited Partner determined under the preceding sentence will be reduced by any Interim Year
Incentive Allocation. In no event shall any portion of the Interim Year Incentive Allocation made
to Millennium Management be returned to the Limited Partner. Appropriate fiscal year-end
adjustments, if required, will be made to the Limited Partner's Loss Recovery Accounts.
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-37
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003968
EFTA00239300
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
After an Incentive Allocation has been made from a Limited Partner's capital accounts,
such capital accounts that are part of the same class and are subject to the same withdrawal period
(other than the capital account established with respect to the initial capital contribution for such
class and such withdrawal period of such Limited Partner (the "Initial Capital Account")) will
be combined with the Initial Capital Account of such Limited Partner. A capital account of a
Limited Partner will not be combined with another capital account to the extent that there is a Loss
Recovery Account attributable to it.
The Partnership Agreement provides that Millennium Management may amend the
provisions of the Partnership Agreement relating to the Incentive Allocation so that it conforms to
any applicable requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission and other regulatory
authorities, so long as such amendment does not increase the Incentive Allocation to more than
20% of aggregate Net Capital Appreciation for any fiscal year.
In the event that Millennium Management determines that, for tax or regulatory reasons,
or any other reasons as to which Millennium Management and any Partner agree, the Partner
should not participate in the Net Capital Appreciation or Net Capital Depreciation attributable to
trading in any security or type of security or to any other transaction, Millennium Management
may allocate the Net Capital Appreciation or Net Capital Depreciation only to the capital accounts
of Partners to whom such reasons do not apply, and if appropriate, may establish a separate
memorandum account in which only the Partners having an interest in such security, type of
security or transaction shall have an interest and Net Capital Appreciation and Net Capital
Depreciation for that separate memorandum account will be separately calculated.
In addition to the circumstances described under "Millennium USA's Organization,
Management, Structure and Operations-Capital Structure," Millennium Management, in its sole
and absolute discretion, may elect to reduce, waive or calculate differently the Incentive Allocation
with respect to any person, including its affiliates.
Outline of the Partnership Agreement
The following outline summarizes the material provisions of the Partnership Agreement
which are not discussed elsewhere in this Confidential Memorandum. This outline is not definitive,
and each prospective purchaser should carefully read the Partnership Agreement in its entirety.
Limited Liability. A Limited Partner is liable for debts and obligations ofMillennium USA
only to the extent of its Interest in Millennium USA in the fiscal year (or portion thereof) to which
such debts and obligations are attributable. In order to meet a particular debt or obligation, a Limited
Partner or former Limited Partner shall, in the discretion ofMillennium Management, be required to
make additional contributions or payments up to, but in no event in excess of, the aggregate amount
of returns of capital and other amounts actually received by it from Millennium USA during or after
the fiscal year to which such debt or obligation is attributable.
Term; Dissolution. Millennium USA will continue until the earlier of (i) an event of
withdrawal (as defined in the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, as amended
(the "Act")) ofMillennium Management; provided that Millennium USA will not be dissolved nor
required to be wound up in connection with any such event if (A) at the time of the occurrence of
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-38
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003969
EFTA00239301
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
such event there is at least one remaining general partner ofMillennium USA who is authorized to
and does carry on the business of Millennium USA, or (B) within 30 days after the occurrence of
such event, Limited Partners having in excess of 50% ofthe Partnership Percentages ofthe Limited
Partners agree in writing to continue the business of Millennium USA in which case the Limited
Partners shall appoint, effective as of the date of such event, one or more additional general
partners of Millennium USA; (ii) such time as Millennium Management, in its sole discretion,
determines in writing to dissolve Millennium USA; (iii) the entry of a decree ofjudicial dissolution
under Section 17-802 of the Act; or (iv) at any time there are no Limited Partners, unless
Millennium USA is continued without dissolution pursuant to the Act.
On dissolution ofMillennium USA, withdrawals will be terminated and no further business
will be done except the completion of incomplete transactions and the taking of such action as will
be necessary for the winding up of the affairs of Millennium USA and the distribution ofits assets.
In connection with the dissolution of Millennium USA, reserves for liabilities will be established
for the estimated costs of liquidating assets and liabilities, such as (without limitation) payments
required as severance for personnel, or for termination ofadvisory or other agreements or contracts
or leases, and the like. However, such reserves, and all other related costs and expenses, will be
disregarded for the purpose of calculating Net Capital Appreciation or Net Capital Depreciation in
determining the amount of the Incentive Allocation. Reserves, and related costs and expenses,
taken by the Master Partnership will also be reflected on the books ofMillennium USA, and treated
similarly in calculating the Incentive Allocation. Any unused portion of a reserve established in
anticipation of dissolution of Millennium USA that is not expected to be used will be reversed
after Millennium Management, in its sole discretion, has determined that the need therefor has
ceased.
Capital Accounts. A separate capital account will be established on the books ofMillennium
USA for, and in the amount of, each capital contribution made by each Partner. A Partnership
Percentage is determined for each Partner for each Accounting Period by dividingits capital accounts
as of the beginning of such Accounting Period by the aggregate capital accounts of all Partners as of
the beginning of such Accounting Period.
Each Limited Partner's capital account is increased to reflect its share of Net Capital
Appreciation, and is decreased to reflect withdrawals of capital, distributions and such Partner's
share ofNet Capital Depreciation.
Additional Capital Contributions. With the prior approval of Millennium Management
(which approval may be withheld for any reason or no reason), a Limited Partner may make
additional capital contributions to Millennium USA at such time as Millennium Management may
permit.
Additional contributions by an existing Limited Partner will be subject to a new withdrawal
period based on the class of Interest purchased and will be placed in a separate capital account.
The Net Capital Appreciation and Net Capital Depreciation attributable to a Limited Partner's
capital account for one class of Interest will not be aggregated with, or offset by, the Net Capital
Appreciation and Net Capital Depreciation attributable to any other capital account held by the
Limited Partner with respect to a different class of Interest.
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-39
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003970
EFTA00239302
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Management. The management of Millennium USA is vested exclusively in Millennium
Management.
Valuation of Partnership Assets. Millennium USA's assets are valued by Millennium
Management in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement.
Liabilities; Reserves. The liabilities ofMillennium USA will be determined in accordance
with GAAP, applied on a consistent basis, except as described below. Millennium Management
may also at any time or times establish reserves (whether or not in accordance with GAAP) for
estimated or accrued expenses, liabilities or contingencies, including in connection with the
dissolution ofMillennium USA or any downsizing of Millennium USA following a Trigger Event.
If reserves are established that are not in accordance with GAAP, they will be treated in the same
manner as reserves that are in accordance with GAAP, i.e., in the period in which they are taken
they will be treated as an expense ofMillennium USA (and will reduce the net assets ofMillennium
USA), and, if and to the extent that they are subsequently reversed they will be taken into income
in the period of such reversal (and will to that extent increase the net assets of Millennium USA).
Death Disability, etc. of a Limited Partner. In the event of the death, disability, adjudication
ofincompetency, bankruptcy, termination or dissolution of a Limited Partner, such Limited Partner
or its personal representative (as defined in the Act) will be permitted to withdraw from Millennium
USA as of the next occurring date on IA hi ch the Limited Partner could have withdrawn without
regard to such death, disability, adjudication of incompetency, bankruptcy, termination or
dissolution. Unless and until notice of withdrawal is properly given and such withdrawal occurs,
the capital accounts of such Limited Partner will continue at the risk ofMillennium USA's business
until the effective date of the withdrawal or the earlier termination ofMillennium USA.
Assignability of Partner's Interest. Without the prior written consent of Millennium
Management, which may be withheld in its sole discretion, a Partner may not (i) pledge, transfer
or assign its Interest in Millennium USA in whole or in part to any person except by operation of
law or (ii) substitute for itself as a Partner any other person.
Admission ofNew Partners. Additional general partners and Limited Partners may, with the
consent ofMillennium Management, be admitted to Millennium USA at any time. Each new Partner
is required to execute an agreement pursuant to which it becomes bound by the terms of the
Partnership Agreement.
Variation of Terms. Millennium Management may enter into a written agreement with a
Limited Partner governing the following terms, among others: (i) the payment by such Limited
Partner of a fee to Millennium Management in connection with the admission or the withdrawal
from Millennium USA of such Limited Partner (which fee may, in Millennium Management's sole
discretion, be paid to Millennium Management or such other persons as Millennium Management
determines); (ii) the application of a lower or a higher performance-based percentage allocation than
the Incentive Allocation to the capital accounts of such Limited Partner, (iii) the application of
withdrawal and distribution arrangements that vary from those applicable to other Limited Partners;
and (iv) the application of death, disability, bankruptcy or withdrawal arrangements that vary from
those applicable to other Limited Partners. However, as noted above under "Millennium USA's
Organization, Management, Structure, and Operations," Millennium USA does not generally enter
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-40
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003971
EFTA00239303
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
into contractual arrangements or undertakings providing for withdrawal rights materially different
from those generally available to the same class (subject to exceptions in order to address legal,
regulatory, tax or similar requirements applicable to certain investors and in connection with
deferred compensation arrangements described under "Certain Risk Factors Relating to
Millennium USA — Investment in the Master Partnership by Millennium Management and its
Affiliates and Portfolio Managers").
Amendments to Partnership Agreement. The Partnership Agreement may be modified or
amended at any time by the written approval ofPartners having in excess of 50% of the Partnership
Percentages of the Limited Partners and the written approval ofMillennium Management. Without
the approval of the other Partners, however, Millennium Management may amend the Partnership
Agreement to (i) reflect changes validly made in the membership ofMillennium USA and the capital
contributions and Partnership Percentages of the Partners; (ii) change the provisions relating to the
Incentive Allocation so that such provisions conform to any applicable requirements of the SEC and
other regulatory authorities, so long as such amendment does not increase the Incentive Allocation
to more than 20% of aggregate Net Capital Appreciation for any fiscal year; (iii) reflect a change in
the name ofMillennium USA; (iv) make a change that is necessary or, in the opinion ofMillennium
Management, advisable to qualify Millennium USA as a limited partnership or a partnership in
which the Limited Partners have limited liability under the laws of any state, or ensure that
Millennium USA is not classified as an association taxable as a corporation or treated as a publicly
traded partnership taxable as a corporation for Federal tax purposes; (v) make a change that does not
adversely affect the Limited Partners in any material respect; (vi) make a change that is necessary or
desirable to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision in the Partnership Agreement
that is inconsistent with any other provision in the Partnership Agreement, or to change any other
provision with respect to matters or questions arising under the Partnership Agreement that is not
inconsistent with the provisions of the Partnership Agreement, in each case so long as such change
does not adversely affect the Limited Partners; (vii) make a change that is necessary or desirable to
satisfy any requirements, conditions or guidelines contained in any opinion, directive, order, ruling
or regulation of any federal or state statute, so long as such change is made in a manner which
minimizes any adverse effect on the Limited Partners; (viii) make a change that is required or
contemplated by the Partnership Agreement; (ix) make a change in any provision of the Partnership
Agreement that requires any action to be taken by or on behalf of Millennium Management or
Millennium USA pursuant to the requirements of applicable Delaware law if the provisions of
applicable Delaware law are amended, modified or revoked so that the taking of such action is no
longer required; (x) prevent Millennium USA or Millennium Management from being deemed in
any manner an "Investment Company" subject to the provisions of the Investment Company Act;
(xi) reflect the terms of the issuance of new classes (or combination of classes or conversion of
one class into another class) of Interests so long as such amendment does not adversely affect the
terms of the other classes of Interests in any material respect; or (xii) make any other amendments
similar to the foregoing. Each Partner, however, must consent to any amendment which would (a)
reduce its capital accounts or rights of contribution or withdrawal; or (b) amend the provisions ofthe
Partnership Agreement relating to amendments.
Reports to Partners. Millennium Management generally expects to provide Limited
Partners with access to monthly investor balances and quarterly statements. Quarterly information
will include an unaudited balance sheet and statement of operations of Millennium USA and an
unaudited statement of changes in individual partner's capital from the end of the previous quarter
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-41
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003972
EFTA00239304
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
for such Limited Partner. Millennium Management will also provide an annual unaudited
statement of changes in individual partner's capital and annual audited financial statements of
Millennium USA. All information is available via a secure website.
It should also be noted that Millennium Management and its affiliates reserve the right to
provide, and may on occasion provide, certain additional information to Limited Partners who
request such information. For instance, Millennium Management and its affiliates generally make
their representatives available to answer questions from investors concerning Millennium USA,
including with respect to the investments of Millennium USA. During those conversations, certain
investors may receive information and reporting that other investors may not receive, and such
information may affect an investor's decisions regarding Millennium USA.
Exculpation. The Partnership Agreement provides that none of Millennium Management or
its affiliates will be liable to any Limited Partner or Millennium USA for mistakes of judgment or
for action or inaction which said person reasonably believed to be legally permissible and not
contrary to the best interests of Millennium USA, or for losses due to such mistakes, action or
inaction or to the negligence, dishonesty or bad faith of any employee, broker or other agent of
Millennium USA; provided that such employee, broker or agent was selected, engaged or retained
by Millennium USA with reasonable care. Millennium Management and its affiliates may consult
with counsel, accountants and/or other experts in respect of Millennium USA's affairs and be filly
protected and justified in any action or inaction which is taken in good faith in accordance with the
advice or opinion of such counsel, accountants and/or other experts; provided that they were selected
with reasonable care.
The exculpation provisions of the Partnership Agreement will not be construed so as to
provide for the exculpation of Millennium Management or its affiliates for any liability (including
liability under 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 would be
in violation of applicable law, but will be construed so as to effectuate such provisions to the fullest
extent permitted by law.
Indemnification of General Partners. The Partnership Agreement provides that Millennium
USA will indemnify and hold harmless Millennium Management, its affiliates and its and their
respective personal representatives (as defined in the Act) (each an "Indemnified Party"), to the
fullest extent permitted by law, from and against any loss or expense suffered or sustained by an
Indemnified Party by reason of the fact that it is or was an Indemnified Party, including, without
limitation any judgment, settlement, reasonable attorney's fees and other costs or expenses incurred
in connection with the defense of any actual or threatened action or proceeding provided that such
loss or expense resulted from a mistake of judgment on the part of an Indemnified Party, or from
action or inaction that said Indemnified Party reasonably believed to be legally permissible and not
contrary to the best interests of Millennium USA. Millennium USA will, in the sole discretion of
Millennium Management, advance to any Indemnified Party, reasonable attorney's fees and other
costs and expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any action or proceeding that arises
out of such conduct. The Indemnified Parties will agree that in the event an Indemnified Party
receives any such advance, such Indemnified Party will reimburse Millennium USA for such fees,
costs and expenses to the extent it is determined that it was not entitled to indemnification.
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-42
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003973
EFTA00239305
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
The indemnification provisions of the Partnership Agreement will not be construed so as to
provide for the indemnification of an Indemnified Party for any liability (including liability under
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 indemnification would be in violation
of applicable law, but shall be construed so as to effectuate such provisions to the fullest extent
permitted by law.
Required Notifications. Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, each Limited
Partner agrees to notify Millennium Management promptly if there is any change with respect to
any information or representations made by such Limited Partner in the subscription documents
submitted by or on behalf of such Limited Partner in connection with (i) its acquisition of an
Interest or (ii) any additional capital contributions made by such Limited Partner.
Certain Tax Matters Relating to an Investment in Millennium USA
The following is a summary of certain aspects of the income taxation of Millennium USA
and its Partners which should be considered by a Limited Partner. Millennium USA has not sought
a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the "Service") or any other federal, state or local
agency with respect to any of the tax issues affecting Millennium USA, nor has it obtained an
opinion of counsel with respect to any federal tax issues other than the characterization of
Millennium USA and the Master Partnership as partnerships for federal tax purposes.
This summary of certain aspects of the federal income tax treatment of Millennium USA
is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), judicial decisions,
Treasury Regulations (the "Regulations") and rulings in existence on the date hereof, all of which
are subject to change. This summary does not discuss the impact of various proposals to amend
the Code or non-U.S. tax laws, which could change certain of the tax consequences of an
investment in Millennium USA. This summary also does not discuss all of the tax consequences
that may be relevant to a particular investor or to certain investors subject to special treatment
under the federal income tax laws, such as insurance companies.
EACH PROSPECTIVE LIMITED PARTNER SHOULD CONSULT WITH ITS
OWN TAX ADVISOR IN ORDER TO FULLY UNDERSTAND THE FEDERAL, STATE,
LOCAL AND FOREIGN INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF AN INVESTMENT IN
MILLENNIUM USA.
In addition to the particular matters set forth in this section, tax-exempt organizations
should review carefully those sections of this Confidential Memorandum regarding liquidity and
other financial matters to ascertain whether the investment objectives of Millennium USA are
consistent with their overall investment plans. Each prospective tax-exempt Limited Partner is
urged to consult its own counsel regarding the acquisition of Interests.
Tax Treatment ofPartnership Operations
Classification of Millennium USA and the Master Partnership. Each of Millennium USA
and the Master Partnership has received an opinion of Schulte Roth & Zabel LLP, its counsel, that
under the provisions of the Code and the Regulations, as in effect on the date of the opinion, as
well as under the relevant authority interpreting the Code and the Regulations, and based upon
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-43
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003974
EFTA00239306
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
certain representations of Millennium Management, it will be classified as a partnership for federal
tax purposes and not as an association taxable as a corporation. Schulte Roth & Zabel LLP has
also rendered its opinion, based upon the respective anticipated operations of Millennium USA
and the Master Partnership as well as certain representations of Millennium Management, that
neither Millennium USA nor the Master Partnership will be treated as a "publicly traded
partnership" taxable as a corporation.
Unless otherwise indicated, references in the following discussion to the tax consequences
of Millennium USA investments, activities, income, gain and loss, include the direct investments,
activities, income, gain and loss of Millennium USA, and those indirectly attributable to
Millennium USA as a result of it being a partner of the Master Partnership.
As a partnership, Millennium USA generally is not itself subject to federal income tax.
(See, however, "Tax Elections; Returns; Tax Audits" below.) Millennium USA files an annual
partnership information return with the Service which reports the results of operations. Each
Partner is required to report separately on its income tax return its distributive share of Millennium
USA's net long-term capital gain or loss, net short-term capital gain or loss and all other items of
ordinary income or loss. Each Partner is taxed on its distributive share of Millennium USA's
taxable income and gain regardless of whether it has received or will receive a distribution from
Millennium USA.
Allocation of Profits and Losses. Under the Partnership Agreement, Millennium USA's net
capital appreciation or net capital depreciation for each accounting period is allocated among the
Partners and is debited or credited to their capital accounts. The Partnership Agreement provides
that items of income, deduction, gain, loss or credit for each fiscal year generally are to be allocated
for income tax purposes among the Partners pursuant to the principles of Regulations issued under
Sections 704(b) and 704(c) of the Code, based upon amounts of Millennium USA's net capital
appreciation or net capital depreciation allocated to each Partner's capital account. There can be
no assurance however, that the particular methodology of allocations used by Millennium USA
will be accepted by the Service. If such allocations are successfully challenged by the Service, the
allocation of Millennium USA's tax items among the Partners may be affected.
Under the Partnership Agreement, Millennium Management has the discretion to allocate
specially an amount of Millennium USA's ordinary income and/or capital gain (including short-
term capital gain) and deductions, ordinary loss and/or capital loss (including long-term capital
loss) for federal income tax purposes to a withdrawing Partner to the extent that the Partner's
capital account exceeds, or is less than, as the case may be, its federal income tax basis in its
Interests. There can be no assurance that, if Millennium Management makes any such special
allocations, the Service will accept such allocations. If such allocations are successfully
challenged by the Service, Millennium USA's tax items allocable to the remaining Partners would
be affected.
Tax Elections; Returns; Tax Audits. The Code generally provides for optional adjustments
to the basis of partnership property upon distributions of partnership property to a partner and
transfers of partnership interests (including by reason of death) provided that a partnership election
has been made pursuant to Section 754. Under the Partnership Agreement, Millennium
Management, in its sole discretion, may cause Millennium USA to make such an election. Any
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-44
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003975
EFTA00239307
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
such election, once made, cannot be revoked without the Service's consent. The actual effect of
any such election may depend upon whether the Master Partnership also makes such an election.
As a result of the complexity and added expense of the tax accounting required to implement such
an election, Millennium Management presently does not intend to make such election.
Millennium Management decides how to report the partnership items on Millennium
USA's tax returns. In certain cases, Millennium USA may be required to file a statement with the
Service disclosing one or more positions taken on its tax return, generally where the tax law is
uncertain or a position lacks clear authority. All Partners are required under the Code to treat the
partnership items consistently on their own returns, unless they file a statement with the Service
disclosing the inconsistency. Given the uncertainty and complexity of the tax laws, it is possible
that the Service may not agree with the manner in which Millennium USA's items have been
reported. In the event the income tax returns of Millennium USA are audited by the Service, the
tax treatment of Millennium USA's income and deductions generally is determined at the limited
partnership level in a single proceeding rather than by individual audits of the Partners.
Millennium Management, or such other person designated by Millennium Management to serve as
Millennium USA's partnership representative in the event of an audit by the Service, has
considerable authority to make decisions affecting the tax treatment of all Partners, including
extending the statute of limitations with respect to Millennium USA items and settling any such
audit.
An audit adjustment to Millennium USA's tax return for any tax year beginning after 2017
(a "Prior Year") could result in a tax liability (including interest and penalties) imposed on
Millennium USA for the year during which the adjustment is determined (the "Current Year").
The tax liability generally is determined by using the highest tax rates under the Code applicable
to U.S. taxpayers although Millennium USA may be able to use a lower rate to compute the tax
liability by taking into account (to the extent it is the case and the implementing rules permit) that
Millennium USA has certain tax exempt and foreign partners. Alternatively, Millennium USA
may be able to elect with the Service to pass through such adjustments for any year to the partners
who participated in Millennium USA for the Prior Year, in which case each Prior Year
participating partner, and not Millennium USA, would be responsible for the payment of any tax
deficiency, determined after including its share of the adjustments on its tax return for that year.
If such an election is made by Millennium USA, interest on any deficiency will be at a rate that is
two percentage points higher than the otherwise applicable interest rate on tax underpayments. If
such an election is not made, Current Year partners may bear the tax liability (including interest
and penalties) arising from audit adjustments at significantly higher rates and in amounts that are
unrelated to their Prior Year economic interests in the partnership items that were adjusted. Similar
principles apply to audits of the Master Partnership. A pass-through election may be effected
through partnership tiers, whereby each partnership in the chain generally may choose to either
pay the tax directly or push it out to its own partners (e.g., from the Master Partnership to
Millennium USA and then to Millennium USA's Prior Year participating partners).
Mandatory Basis Adjustments. Millennium USA is generally required to adjust its tax
basis in its assets in respect of all Partners in cases of partnership distributions that result in a
"substantial basis reduction" (Le., in excess of $250,000) in respect of Millennium USA's
property. Millennium USA is also required to adjust its tax basis in its assets in respect of a
transferee, in the case of a sale or exchange of an Interest, or a transfer upon death, when there
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-45
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003976
EFTA00239308
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
exists immediately after the transfer a "substantial built-in loss" (i.e., in excess of $250,000) in
respect of partnership property or the transferee would be allocated a loss of more than $250,000
upon a disposition of all of the partnership's assets at fair market value. For this reason,
Millennium USA will require (i) a Partner who receives a distribution from Millennium USA in
connection with a complete withdrawal, (ii) a transferee of an Interest (including a transferee in
case of death) and (iii) any other Partner in appropriate circumstances to provide Millennium USA
with information regarding its adjusted tax basis in its Interest. The Master Partnership has a
similar tax basis adjustment obligation with respect to distributions by, and sales or transfers of
interests in, the Master Partnership.
Tax Consequences to a WithdrawingLimitedPartner
A Limited Partner receiving a cash liquidating distribution from Millennium USA, in
connection with a complete withdrawal from Millennium USA, generally will recognize capital
gain or loss to the extent of the difference between the proceeds received by such Limited Partner
and such Limited Partner's adjusted tax basis in its Interest. Such capital gain or loss will be short-
term, long-term or some combination ofboth, depending upon the timing of the Limited Partner's
contributions to Millennium USA. However, a withdrawing Limited Partner will recognize
ordinary income to the extent such Limited Partner's allocable share of Millennium USA's
"unrealized receivables" exceeds the Limited Partner's basis in such unrealized receivables (as
determined pursuant to the Regulations). For these purposes, accrued but untaxed market discount,
if any, on securities held by Millennium USA will be treated as an unrealized receivable, with
respect to which a withdrawing Limited Partner would recognize ordinary income. A Limited
Partner receiving a cash nonliquidating distribution will recognize income in a similar manner only
to the extent that the amount of the distribution exceeds such Limited Partner's adjusted tax basis
in its Interest.
As discussed above, the Partnership Agreement provides that Millennium Management
may specially allocate items of Millennium USA ordinary income and/or capital gain (including
short-term capital gain) and deductions, ordinary loss and/or capital loss (including long-term
capital loss) to a withdrawing Partner to the extent its capital account would otherwise exceed or
be less than, as the case may be, its adjusted tax basis in its Interest. Such a special allocation of
income or gain may result in the withdrawing Partner recognizing ordinary income and/or capital
gain, which may include short-term capital gain, in the Partner's last taxable year in Millennium
USA, thereby reducing the amount of long-term capital gain recognized during the tax year in
which it receives its liquidating distribution upon withdrawal. Such a special allocation of
deduction or loss may result in the withdrawing Partner recognizing ordinary loss and/or capital
loss, which may include long-term capital loss, in the Partner's last taxable year in Millennium
USA, thereby reducing the amount of short-term capital loss recognized during the tax year in
which it receives its liquidating distribution upon withdrawal.
Distributions of Property. A partner's receipt of a distribution of property from a
partnership is generally not taxable. However, under Section 731 of the Code, a distribution
consisting of marketable securities generally is treated as a distribution of cash (rather than
property) unless the distributing partnership is an "investment partnership" within the meaning of
Section 731(cX3XC)(i) and the recipient is an "eligible partner" within the meaning of Section
731(c)(3XCXiii). Millennium USA will determine at the appropriate time whether it qualifies as
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-46
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003977
EFTA00239309
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
an "investment partnership." Assuming it so qualifies, if a Limited Partner is an "eligible partner,"
which term should include a Limited Partner whose contributions to Millennium USA consisted
solely of cash, the rule treating a distribution of property as a distribution of cash would not apply.
Tax Treatment ofMillennium USA Investments
In General. The Master Partnership is engaged in a trade or business as a trader in securities
and commodities. The Master Partnership has elected to report its income from sales of securities
and commodities held in connection with such trade or business on a "mark-to-market" basis for
Federal income tax purposes. Under this accounting method, (i) gains or losses recognized by the
Master Partnership upon an actual disposition of securities and commodities held in connection
with such trade or business are treated as ordinary income or loss and (ii) any such securities and
commodities held by the Master Partnership on the last day of each taxable year are treated as if
they were sold by the Master Partnership for their fair market value on that day, and gains or losses
recognized on this deemed sale will be treated as ordinary income or loss. For purposes of
measuring gain or loss with respect to any such security or commodity in any subsequent year, the
amount of any gain or loss previously recognized under the mark-to-market rules is taken into
account in determining the tax basis for the security or commodity. The Master Partnership is
required to identify any securities and commodities that are not held in connection with such trade
or business on the day such securities or commodities are acquired. If the Master Partnership fails
to properly identify a security or commodity that is not held in connection with such trade or
business, the Service may require the Master Partnership to recognize "mark-to-market" gains on
such security or commodity as ordinary income at the end of each taxable year, but defer
recognition of any "mark-to-market" losses, to the extent they exceed gains previously recognized
with respect to such security or commodity, until the security or commodity is sold. Moreover,
there can be no assurance that the Service will agree that the Master Partnership's securities and
commodities activities will constitute trading rather than investing, in which case the Master
Partnership may not be able to mark-to-market its positions. Millennium USA has also made a
similar "mark-to-market" election described above.
The Master Partnership may realize ordinary income from dividends and accruals of
interest on securities. Income or loss from transactions involving certain derivative instruments,
such as swap transactions, will also generally constitute ordinary income or loss. As described
below, gain or loss from certain "Section 1256 Contracts" (defined below) held in connection with
the securities trading activities will be treated as capital gain or loss.
To the extent positions are treated as held for investment by Millennium USA or the Master
Partnership, they would not be subject to the "mark-to-market" election described above. Gains
and losses on such investment positions would be realized on the sale of the positions and would
generally be capital gains and losses. Capital gains and losses recognized by Millennium USA or
the Master Partnership may be long-term or short-term depending, in general, upon the length of
time Millennium USA or the Master Partnership maintains a particular investment position and,
in some cases, upon the nature of the transaction. Property held for more than one year generally
will be eligible for long-term capital gain or loss treatment.

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
The income tax rate for corporations is 21%. Capital losses of a corporate taxpayer may
be offset only against capital gains, but unused capital losses may be carried back three years
(subject to certain limitations) and carried forward five years.
The maximum ordinary income tax rate for individuals is 37%5 and, in general, the
maximum individual income tax rate for "Qualified Dividends"' and long-term capital gains is
20% (unless the taxpayer elects to be taxed at ordinary rates - see "Limitation on Deductibility of
Interest and Short Sale Expenses" below). The excess of capital losses over capital gains may be
offset against the ordinary income of an individual taxpayer, subject to an annual deduction
limitation of $3,000. Capital losses of an individual taxpayer may generally be carried forward to
succeeding tax years to offset capital gains and then ordinary income (subject to the $3,000 annual
limitation). (See, however, "Limitation on Deductibility ofNet Losses" below.)
An individual may be entitled to deduct up to 20% of such individual's "qualified business
income" each year. However, it is not anticipated that income from Millennium USA will
constitute qualified business income, except to the extent of certain ordinary income dividends
received from real estate investment trusts or income from investments, if any, in partnerships
conducting certain trades or businesses.
In addition, individuals, estates and trusts are subject to a Medicare tax of 3.8% on net
investment income ("NIP') (or undistributed NII, in the case of estates and trusts) for each such
taxable year, with such tax applying to the lesser of such income or the excess of such person's
adjusted gross income (with certain adjustments) over a specified amount.? NII includes net
income from interest, dividends, annuities, royalties and rents and net gain attributable to the
disposition of investment property. It is generally anticipated that net income and gain attributable
to an investment in Millennium USA will be included in an investor's NII subject to this Medicare
tax. However, the calculation of NII for purposes of the Medicare tax and taxable income for
purposes of the regular income tax may be different. Furthermore, the Medicare tax and the regular
income tax may be due in different taxable years with respect to the same income. The application
of the tax (and the availability of particular elections is quite complex. Investors are urged to
consult their tax advisors regarding the consequences of these rules in respect of their investments.
Certain Section 1256 Contracts. A Section 1256 Contract includes certain futures contracts,
and certain other contracts. With respect to any Section 1256 Contracts which are not treated as
"commodities" for purposes of Section 475, gains and losses from such Section 1256 Contracts are
marked to market annually, and generally are characterized as short-term capital gains or losses to
the extent of 40% thereof and as long-term capital gains or losses to the extent of 60% thereof. Gains
and losses from Section 1256 Contracts will be treated as ordinary income and losses, if such Section
5 The maximum rate for ordinary income for individuals is scheduled to increase to 39.6% in 2026.
6 A "Qualified Dividend" is generally a dividend front certain domestic corporations. and from certain foreign
corporations that am either eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States or are
readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. Shams must be held for certain holding
periods in order for a dividend thereon to be a Qualified Dividend.
The amount is $250,000 for married individuals filing jointly. $125,000 for married individuals filing
separately. $200.000 for other individuals and the dollar amount at which the highest income tax bracket for estates

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
1256 Contracts are held to hedge property which would generate ordinary loss if sold at a loss or if
such Section 1256 Contracts are held by the Master Partnership in connection with the commodities
trade or business. If an individual taxpayer incurs a net capital loss for a year, the portion thereof,
if any, which consists of a net loss on such Section 1256 Contracts may, at the election of the
taxpayer, be carried back three years. Losses so carried back may be deducted only against net
capital gain to the extent that such gain includes gains on Section 1256 Contracts. A Section 1256
Contract does not include a "securities futures contract" or any option on such a contract, other
than a "dealer securities futures contract."
Generally, a "securities futures contract" is a contract of sale for future delivery of a single
security or a narrow-based security index. A "dealer securities futures contract" is treated as a
Section 1256 Contract. A "dealer securities futures contract" is a securities futures contract, or an
option to enter into such a contract, that (1) is entered into by a dealer (or, in the case of an option,
is purchased or granted by the dealer) in the normal course of its trade or business activity of
dealing in the contracts and (2) is traded on a qualified board of trade or exchange.
Mixed Straddle Election. The Code allows a taxpayer to elect to offset gains and losses
from positions which are part of a "mixed straddle." A "mixed straddle" is any straddle in which
one or more but not all positions are Section 1256 Contracts. Pursuant to Temporary Regulations,
Millennium USA may be eligible to elect to establish one or more mixed straddle accounts for
certain of its mixed straddle trading positions. The mixed straddle account rules require a daily
"marking to market" of all open positions in the account and a daily netting of gains and losses
from positions in the account. At the end of a taxable year, the annual net gains or losses from the
mixed straddle account are recognized for tax purposes. The application of the Temporary
Regulations' mixed straddle account rules is not entirely clear. Therefore, there is no assurance
that a mixed straddle account election by Millennium USA will be accepted by the Service.
Effect of Straddle Rules on Limited Partners' Securities Positions. The Service may treat
certain positions in securities held (directly or indirectly) by a Partner and its indirect interest in
similar securities held by Millennium USA as "straddles" for federal income tax purposes.
Investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the "straddle" rules to their
investment in Millennium USA.
Limitation on Deductibility of Interest and Short Sale Expenses. For noncorporate
taxpayers, Section 163(d) of the Code limits the deduction for "investment interest" (i.e., interest
or short sale expenses for "indebtedness properly allocable to property held for investment").
Investment interest is not deductible in the current year to the extent that it exceeds the taxpayer's
"net investment income," consisting of net gain and ordinary income derived from investments in
the current year less certain directly connected expenses (other than interest or short sale expenses).
For this purpose, Qualified Dividends and long-term capital gains are excluded from net
investment income unless the taxpayer elects to pay tax on such amounts at ordinary income tax
rates.
For purposes of this provision, Millennium USA's activities (other than certain activities
that are treated as "passive activities" under Section 469 of the Code) will be treated as giving rise
to investment income for a Limited Partner (other than a Limited Partner who materially
participates in Millennium USA's trade or business activities), and the investment interest
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-49
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003980
EFTA00239312
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
limitation would apply to a noncorporate Limited Partner's share of the interest and short sale
expenses attributable to Millennium USA's operation. Such noncorporate Limited Partner would
be denied a deduction for all or part of that portion of its distributive share of Millennium USA's
ordinary losses attributable to interest and short sale expenses unless it had sufficient investment
income from all sources including Millennium USA. A Limited Partner that could not deduct
losses currently as a result of the application of Section 163(d) would be entitled to carry forward
such losses to future years, subject to the same limitation. The investment interest limitation would
also apply to interest paid by a noncorporate Limited Partner on money borrowed to finance its
investment in Millennium USA. Potential investors are advised to consult with their own tax
advisors with respect to the application of the investment interest limitation in their particular tax
situations.
Limitation on Deductibility ofBusiness Interest Expense. Section 163(j) of the Code limits
the deduction of business interest expense attributable to a trade or business generally to the sum
of the taxpayer's (x) business interest income and (y) 30% of adjusted taxable income relating to a
trade or business (calculated by excluding business interest expense and business interest income).
Any business interest expense not deductible pursuant to the foregoing limitation is treated as
business interest expense of the taxpayer that carries forward to succeeding taxable years, subject
to the same limitation. For these purposes, Limited Partners such as noncorporate taxpayers for
whom the investment interest rules apply in respect of their interest in Millennium USA (see
"Limitation on Deductibility of Interest and Short Sale Expenses" above) generally are not
expected to be subject to the business interest expense limitations determined by Millennium USA.
The determination of what constitutes business interest expense in respect of Millennium
USA's operations is determined at the partnership level. As described above, Millennium USA
expects to be a trader in securities, in which case the foregoing limitations are initially calculated
at the Millennium USA level. To the extent the limitation at the Millennium USA level applies to
reduce the business interest expense deductible for a year, such excess shall carry forward to
succeeding years and, subject to certain limitations, may be deducted by the Limited Partner to the
extent Millennium USA has sufficient excess taxable income that was not offset by business
interest expense in such year. Any amount not utilized will form part of the investor's adjusted
basis in its interest in Millennium USA only at the time of disposition of such interest. Potential
investors are advised to consult with their own tax advisors with respect to the application of the
business interest expense limitation to their particular tax situations.
Deductibility of Millennium USA Investment Expenditures and Certain Other
Expenditures. Investment expenses (e.g., investment advisory fees) of an individual, trust or estate
are not deductible. For taxable years beginning after 2025, such expenses would be deductible
only to the extent they exceed 2% of adjusted gross income, would be further restricted in their
deductibility for individuals with an adjusted gross income in excess of a specified amount and
would not be deductible in calculating alternative minimum tax liability.
Pursuant to Temporary Regulations issued by the Treasury Department, these limitations
on deductibility should not apply to a noncorporate Limited Partner's share of the expenses of the
Master Partnership to the extent that the Master Partnership is engaged, as it expects to be, in a
trade or business within the meaning of the Code. However, there can be no assurance that the
Service may not treat such expenses as investment expenses which are subject to the limitations.
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-50
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003981
EFTA00239313
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
In addition, these limitations may apply to certain expenses of the Master Partnership and
Millennium USA, the fee to the Administrator and payments made on certain derivative
instruments to the extent allocable to activities, if any, that are not part of the Master Partnership's
or Millennium USA's trade or business (including investments, if any, in partnerships that are not
managed by Millennium Management or its affiliates, or investments that are treated as held for
investment).
The consequences of these limitations will vary depending upon the particular tax situation
of each taxpayer. Accordingly, noncorporate Limited Partners should consult their tax advisors
with respect to the application of these limitations.
A Limited Partner will not be allowed to deduct syndication expenses, including placement
fees paid by such Limited Partner or Millennium USA. Any such amounts will be included in the
Limited Partner's adjusted tax basis for its Interest.
Application of Rules for Income and Losses from Passive Activities. The Code restricts
the deductibility of losses from a "passive activity" against certain income which is not derived
from a passive activity. This restriction applies to individuals, personal service corporations and
certain closely held corporations. Pursuant to Temporary Regulations issued by the Treasury
Department, income or loss from Millennium USA's securities investment and trading activity
generally will not constitute income or loss from a passive activity. Therefore, passive losses from
other sources generally could not be deducted against a Limited Partner's share of such income
and gain from Millennium USA. Income or loss attributable to certain activities of Millennium
USA, including investments in partnerships engaged in certain trades or businesses may constitute
passive activity income or loss.
Limitation on Deductibility ofNet Losses. In the case of a noncorporate taxpayer, any net
business loss for any taxable year beginning during the period 2018 through 2025 may not be used
to offset nonbusiness income in excess of $250,000 ($500,000 in the case of a married couple
filingjointly). To the extent Millennium USA is considered to be a trader in securities, as it expects
to be, any net loss from Millennium USA may, therefore, be unavailable to offset investment
income earned by a Limited Partner, including investment income earned outside of Millennium
USA. Any disallowed loss will carry forward and may, subject to certain limitations, be used to
reduce taxable income earned by such Limited Partner in future years. Any trading losses incurred
by a partnership in which Millennium USA invests will be subject to the same limitations when
allocated to a noncorporate Limited Partner.
Application of Basis and "At Risk" Limitations on Deductions. The amount of any loss of
Millennium USA that a Limited Partner is entitled to include in its income tax return is limited to
its adjusted tax basis in its Interest as of the end of Millennium USA's taxable year in which such
loss occurred. Generally, a Limited Partner's adjusted tax basis for its Interest is equal to the
amount paid for such Interest, increased by the sum of(i) its share ofMillennium USA's liabilities,
as determined for federal income tax purposes, and (ii) its distributive share ofMillennium USA's
realized income and gains, and decreased (but not below zero) by the sum of (i) distributions
(including decreases in its share ofMillennium USA liabilities) made by Millennium USA to such
Limited Partner and (ii) such Limited Partner's distributive share of Millennium USA's realized
losses and expenses.
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-51
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003982
EFTA00239314
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Similarly, a Limited Partner that is subject to the "at risk" limitations (generally,
noncorporate taxpayers and closely held corporations) may not deduct losses of Millennium USA
to the extent that they exceed the amount such Limited Partner has "at risk" with respect to its
Interest at the end of the year. The amount that a Limited Partner has "at risk" will generally be
the same as its adjusted basis as described above, except that it will generally not include any
amount attributable to liabilities of Millennium USA or any amount borrowed by the Limited
Partner on a non-recourse basis.
Losses denied under the basis or "at risk" limitations are suspended and may be carried
forward in subsequent taxable years, subject to these and other applicable limitations.
"Phantom Income" From Millennium USA Investments. Pursuant to various "anti-
deferral" provisions of the Code (the "Subpart F" and "passive foreign investment company"
provisions), investments (if any) by Millennium USA in certain foreign corporations may cause a
Limited Partner to recognize taxable income prior to Millennium USA's receipt of distributable
proceeds.
U.S. Withholding Taxes
Certain interest, dividends and "dividend equivalent payments" received by the Master
Partnership from sources within the United States may be subject to withholding taxes imposed
by the United States. The Limited Partners will be informed by Millennium USA as to their
proportionate share of the U.S. taxes paid by the Master Partnership, if any, which they will be
required to include in their income. The Limited Partners should be entitled to claim an
unrestricted credit or refund for their share of such U.S. taxes in computing their own federal
income tax liability.
In order to avoid a U.S. withholding tax of 30% on certain payments (including payments
of gross proceeds) made with respect to certain actual and deemed U.S. investments, the Master
Partnership has registered with the Service and generally will be required to identify, and report
information with respect to, certain of its direct and indirect U.S. account holders (including
debtholders and equityholders). Limited Partners should consult their own tax advisors regarding
the possible implications of these rules on their investment in Interests.
Reporting Requirements
Regulations generally impose an information reporting requirement on a U.S. person's
direct and indirect contributions of cash or property to a foreign partnership such as the Master
Partnership where, (i) immediately after the contribution, the U.S. person owns (directly, indirectly
or by attribution) at least a 10% interest in the foreign partnership or (ii) the value of the cash
and/or property transferred during the twelve-month period ending on the date of the contribution
by the transferor (or any related person) exceeds $100,000. Under these rules, a Limited Partner
will be deemed to have transferred a proportionate share of the cash and property contributed by
Millennium USA to the Master Partnership. Furthermore, if a U.S. person was required to report
a transfer to a foreign partnership of appreciated property under the first sentence ofthis paragraph,
and the foreign partnership disposes of the property while such U.S. person remains a direct or
indirect partner, that U.S. person must report the disposition by the partnership. However, a
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-52
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003983
EFTA00239315
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Limited Partner will not be required to file information returns with respect to the events described
in this paragraph if Millennium USA complies with the reporting requirements. Millennium USA
intends to file the required reports with the Service so as to relieve the Limited Partners of these
reporting obligations.
Regulations also generally impose a reporting requirement on any U.S. Limited Partner
which, at any time during the taxable year of the Master Partnership, owns (indirectly or by
attribution) more than 50% of the capital or profits of the Master Partnership. Millennium
Management will notify any Limited Partner who owns the requisite indirect interest in the Master
Partnership and will assist such person in meeting their reporting obligations.
The foregoing discussion is only a brief summary of certain information reporting
requirements. Substantial penalties may apply if the required reports are not made on time.
Partners are strongly urged to consult their own tax advisors concerning these reporting
requirements as they relate to their investment in Millennium USA.
UnrelatedBusiness /arable Income
Generally, an exempt organization is exempt from federal income tax on its passive
investment income, such as dividends, interest and capital gains, whether realized by the
organization directly or indirectly through a partnership in which it is a partner, This type of
income is exempt even if it is realized from securities trading activity which constitutes a trade or
business.
This general exemption from tax does not apply to the "unrelated business taxable income"
("UBTI") of an exempt organization. Generally, except as noted above with respect to certain
categories of exempt trading activity, UBTI includes income or gain derived (either directly or
through partnerships) from a trade or business, the conduct of which is substantially unrelated to
the exercise or performance of the organization's exempt purpose or function. Separate
calculations are made for each unrelated trade or business of the exempt organization, with losses
usable only against the applicable unrelated trade or business and not against all UBTI generally.
With respect to its investments, if any, in partnerships engaged in a trade or business, Millennium
USA's income (or loss) from these investments may constitute UBTI.
UBTI also includes "unrelated debt-financed income," which generally consists of (i)
income derived by an exempt organization (directly or through a partnership) from
income-producing property with respect to which there is "acquisition indebtedness" at any time
during the taxable year, and (ii) gains derived by an exempt organization (directly or through a
partnership) from the disposition of property with respect to which there is "acquisition
indebtedness" at any time during the twelve-month period ending with the date of such disposition.
With certain exceptions. tax-exempt organizations which are private foundations are subject to a 2% federal
excise tax on their "net investment income." The rate of the excise tax for any taxable year may be reduced to I% if
the private foundation meets certain distribution requirements for the taxable year. A private foundation will be
required to make payments of estimated tax with respect to this excise tax.

CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003984
EFTA00239316
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Millennium USA may incur "acquisition indebtedness" with respect to certain of its
transactions, such as the purchase of securities on margin. Based upon a published ruling issued
by the Service which generally holds that income and gain with respect to short sales of publicly
traded stock does not constitute income from debt financed property for purposes of computing
UBTI, Millennium USA will treat its short sales of securities as not involving "acquisition
indebtedness" and therefore not resulting in UBTI.9 To the extent Millennium USA recognizes
income (i.e., dividends and interest) from securities with respect to which there is "acquisition
indebtedness" during a taxable year, the percentage of such income which will be treated as UBTI
generally will be based on the percentage which the "average acquisition indebtedness" incurred
with respect to such securities is of the "average amount of the adjusted basis" of such securities
during the taxable year.
To the extent Millennium USA recognizes gain from securities with respect to which there
is "acquisition indebtedness" at any time during the twelve-month period ending with the date of
their disposition, the percentage of such gain which will be treated as UBTI will be based on the
percentage which the highest amount of such "acquisition indebtedness" is of the "average amount
of the adjusted basis" of such securities during the taxable year. In determining the unrelated
debt-financed income of Millennium USA, an allocable portion of deductions directly connected
with Millennium USA's debt-financed property is taken into account. Thus, for instance, a
percentage of losses from debt-financed securities (based on the debt/basis percentage calculation
described above) would offset gains treated as UBTI.
Since the calculation of Millennium USA's "unrelated debt-financed income" is complex
and will depend in large part on the amount of leverage, if any, used by Millennium USA from
time to time,10 it is impossible to predict what percentage of Millennium USA's income and gains
will be treated as UBTI for a Limited Partner which is an exempt organization. With respect to
losses incurred during or after 2018, an exempt organization's share of the income or gains of
Millennium USA which is treated as UBTI may not be offset by losses of the exempt organization
either from Millennium USA or otherwise, unless such losses are treated as attributable to the same
unrelated trade or business.
To the extent that Millennium USA generates UBTI, the applicable federal tax rate for such
a Limited Partner generally would be either the corporate or trust tax rate depending upon the
nature of the particular exempt organization. An exempt organization may be required to support,
to the satisfaction of the Service, the method used to calculate its UBTI. Millennium USA will be
required to report to a Partner which is an exempt organization information as to the portion, if
any, of its income and gains from Millennium USA for each year which will be treated as UBTI.
The calculation of such amount with respect to transactions entered into by Millennium USA is
9 Moreover. income realized from option writing and futures contract transactions generally would not
constitute UBTI.
10 The calculation of a particular exempt organization's UBTI would also be affected if it incurs indebtedness
to finance its investment in Millennium USA. An exempt organization is required to make estimated tax payments
with respect to its UBTI.
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-54
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003985
EFTA00239317
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
highly complex, and there is no assurance that Millennium USA's calculation of UBTI will be
accepted by the Service.
In general, if UBTI is allocated to an exempt organization such as a qualified retirement
plan or a private foundation, the portion of Millennium USA's income and gains which is not
treated as UBTI will continue to be exempt from tax, as will the organization's income and gains
from other investments which are not treated as UBTI. Therefore, the possibility of realizing UBTI
from its investment in Millennium USA generally should not affect the tax-exempt status of such
an exempt organization." In addition, a charitable remainder trust will be subject to a 100% excise
tax on any UBTI under Section 664(c) of the Code. A title-holding company will not be exempt
from tax if it has certain types of UBTI. Moreover, the charitable contribution deduction for a
trust under Section 642(c) of the Code may be limited for any year in which the trust has UBTI.
A prospective purchaser should consult its tax advisor with respect to the tax consequences of
receiving UBTI from Millennium USA. (See "ERISA Considerations.")
CertainIssues Pertaining to Specific Exempt Organizations
Private Foundations. Private foundations and their managers are subject to excise taxes if
they invest "any amount in such a manner as to jeopardize the carrying out of any of the
foundation's exempt purposes." This rule requires a foundation manager, in making an
investment, to exercise "ordinary business care and prudence" under the facts and circumstances
prevailing at the time of making the investment, in providing for the short-term and long-term
needs of the foundation to carry out its exempt purposes. The factors which a foundation manager
may take into account in assessing an investment include the expected rate of return (both income
and capital appreciation), the risks of rising and falling price levels, and the need for diversification
within the foundation's portfolio.
In order to avoid the imposition of an excise tax, a private foundation may be required to
distribute on an annual basis its "distributable amount," which includes, among other things, the
private foundation's "minimum investment return," defined as 5% of the excess of the fair market
value of its nonfunctionally related assets (assets not used or held for use in carrying out the
foundation's exempt purposes), over certain indebtedness incurred by the foundation in connection
with such assets. It appears that a foundation's investment in Millennium USA would most
probably be classified as a nonfunctionally related asset. A determination that an Interest in
Millennium USA is a nonfunctionally related asset could conceivably cause cash flow problems
for a prospective Limited Partner which is a private foundation. Such an organization could be
required to make distributions in an amount determined by reference to unrealized appreciation in
the value of its Interest in Millennium USA. Of course, this factor would create less of a problem
to the extent that the value of the investment in Millennium USA is not significant in relation to
the value of other assets held by a foundation.
Certain exempt organizations which realize UBTI in a taxable year will not constitute "qualified
organizations" for purposes of Section 5I.1(cX9XB)(viX1) of the Code. pursuant to which, in limited circurnstmecs,
income from certain real estate partnerships in which such organizations invest might be treated as exempt from UBTI.
A prospective lax-exempt Limited Palmer should consult its tax advisor in this regard.

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
In some instances, an investment in Millennium USA by a private foundation may be
prohibited by the "excess business holdings" provisions of the Code. For example, if a private
foundation (either directly or together with a "disqualified person") acquires more than 20% of the
capital interest or profits interest of Millennium USA, the private foundation may be considered
to have "excess business holdings." If this occurs, such foundation may be required to divest itself
of its Interest in Millennium USA in order to avoid the imposition of an excise tax. However, the
excise tax will not apply if at least 95% of the gross income from Millennium USA is "passive"
within the applicable provisions of the Code and Regulations. There can be no assurance that
Millennium USA will meet such 95% gross income test.
A substantial percentage of investments of certain "private operating foundations" may be
restricted to assets directly devoted to their tax-exempt purposes. Otherwise, generally, rules
similar to those discussed above govern their operations.
Private Colleges and Universities. Net investment income of certain private colleges and
universities is subject to a 1.4% tax. Such income is calculated in the same manner in which
private foundations calculate their net investment income.
Qualified Retirement Plans. Employee benefit plans subject to the provisions of ERISA,
Individual Retirement Accounts and Keogh Plans should consult their counsel as to the
implications of such an investment under ERISA and the Code. (See "ERISA Considerations.")
Endowment Funds. Investment managers of endowment funds should consider whether
the acquisition of an Interest is legally permissible. This is not a matter of federal law, but is
determined under state statutes. It should be noted, however, that under the Uniform Prudent
Management of Institutional Funds Act, which has been adopted, in various forms, by a large
number of states, participation in investment partnerships or similar organizations in which funds
are commingled and investment determinations are made by persons other than the governing
board of the endowment fund is allowed.
Certain Clubs and Trusts. Social clubs, voluntary employees' beneficiary associations and
supplemental unemployment benefit trusts that are exempt from Federal income taxation under
Sections 501(cX7), (c)(9) and (cX17), respectively, of the Code are subject to special UBTI rules.
These rules generally require such tax-exempt organizations to characterize income that would not
otherwise be treated as UBTI (including income earned by Millennium USA) as UBTI. Such tax-
exempt organizations are advised to consult their tax advisors concerning these rules and their
application to this investment.
Excise Tax on Certain Reportable Transactions. A tax-exempt entity (including a state or
local government or its political subdivision) may be subject to an excise tax equal to the greater
of (i) 100% of the net income or (ii) 75% of the proceeds, attributable to certain "reportable
transactions," including "listed transactions," if any, in which it participates. Under Regulations,
these rules should not apply to a tax-exempt investor's Interest if such investor's tax-exempt status
does not facilitate Millennium USA's participation, if any, in such transactions, unless otherwise
provided in future guidance. Tax-exempt investors should discuss with their own advisors the
applicability of these rules to their investment in Millennium USA. (See "Tax Shelter Reporting
Requirements" below.)

CertainReporting Obligations
Certain U.S. persons ("potential filers") that own (directly or indirectly) more than 50%
of the capital or profits of Millennium USA may be required to file FinCEN Form 114 (an
"FBAR") with respect to Millennium USA's investments in foreign financial accounts. Failure to
file a required FBAR may result in civil and criminal penalties. Potential filers should consult
with their own advisors as to whether they are obligated to file an FBAR with respect to an
investment in Millennium USA.
Tax Shelter ReportingRequirements
The Regulations require Millennium USA to complete and file Form 8886 ("Reportable
Transaction Disclosure Statement") with its tax return for any taxable year in which Millennium
USA participates in a "reportable transaction." Additionally, each Partner treated as participating
in a reportable transaction of Millennium USA is generally required to file Form 8886 with its tax
return (or, in certain cases, within 60 days of the return's due date). If the Service designates a
transaction as a reportable transaction after the filing of a taxpayer's tax return for the year in
which Millennium USA or a Partner participated in the transaction, Millennium USA and/or such
Partner may have to file Form 8886 with respect to that transaction within 90 days after the Service
makes the designation. Millennium USA and any such Partner, respectively, must also submit a
copy of the completed form with the Service's Office of Tax Shelter Analysis. Millennium USA
intends to notify the Partners that it believes (based on information available to Millennium USA)
are required to report a transaction of Millennium USA, and intends to provide such Limited
Partners with any available information needed to complete and submit Form 8886 with respect to
Millennium USA's transactions. In certain situations, there may also be a requirement that a list
be maintained of persons participating in such reportable transactions, which could be made
available to the Service at its request.
A Partner's recognition of a loss upon its disposition of an Interest in Millennium USA
could also constitute a "reportable transaction" for such Partner, requiring such Partner to file Form
8886.
A significant penalty is imposed on taxpayers who participate in a "reportable transaction"
and fail to make the required disclosure. The maximum penalty is $10,000 for natural persons and
$50,000 for other persons (increased to $100,000 and $200,000, respectively, if the reportable
transaction is a "listed" transaction). Investors should consult with their own advisors concerning
the application of these reporting obligations to their specific situations.
State andLocal Taxation
In addition to the federal income tax consequences described above, prospective purchasers
should consider potential state and local tax consequences of an investment in Millennium USA.
State and local laws often differ from federal income tax laws with respect to the treatment of
specific items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit. A Partner's distributive share of the
taxable income or loss of Millennium USA generally will be required to be included in determining
its reportable income for state and local tax purposes in the jurisdiction in which it is a resident.
To the extent Millennium USA is engaged in a trade or business, including through the acquisition
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-57
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003988
EFTA00239320
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
of an interest in a partnership that is itself engaged in a trade or business, a Partner's share of
Millennium USA's income from that trade or business that is sourced to a particular jurisdiction
may cause such Partner to be taxed in that jurisdiction and may cause such Partner to file tax
returns in such jurisdiction. Prospective purchasers should consult their tax advisors with respect
to the availability of a credit for any such tax in the jurisdiction in which that Partner is a resident.
The tax laws of various states and localities limit or eliminate the deductibility of itemized
deductions for certain taxpayers. As described above, the Master Partnership generally expects to
be in a trade or business within the meaning of the Code. Accordingly, it is not anticipated that
Millennium USA's and the Master Partnership's expenses associated with such trade or business
will be subject to such limitations. However, certain expenses which are not associated with such
trade or business may be limited in their deductibility in one or more states or localities. Moreover,
there can be no assurance that various states and localities will not treat all ofMillennium USA's
and the Master Partnership's expenses, including interest expense, as investment expenses which
are subject to such limitations. Prospective investors are urged to consult their tax advisors with
respect to the impact of these provisions on the deductibility of certain itemized deductions,
including interest expense, on their tax liabilities in the jurisdictions in which they are resident.
One or more states may impose reporting requirements on Millennium USA and/or its
Partners in a manner similar to that described above in "Tax Shelter Reporting Requirements."
Investors should consult with their own advisors as to the applicability of such rules in jurisdictions
which may require or impose a filing requirement.
Millennium USA does not expect to be subject to the New York City unincorporated
business tax, which is not imposed on a partnership which purchases and sells securities for its
"own account." (This exemption may not be applicable to the extent a partnership in which
Millennium USA invests conducts a business in New York City.) By reason of a similar "own
account" exemption, it is also expected that a nonresident individual Partner should not be subject
to New York State personal income tax with respect to his share of income or gain realized directly
by Millennium USA.
Individual Limited Partners who are residents of New York State and New York City
should be aware that the New York State and New York City personal income tax laws limit the
deductibility ofitemized deductions and interest expense for individual taxpayers at certain income
levels. As described above, the Master Partnership generally expects to be in a trade or business
within the meaning ofthe Code. Accordingly, Millennium USA intends to treat its and Millennium
USA's expenses associated with such trade or business as not being subject to the foregoing
limitations on deductibility. However, there can be no assurance that New York State and New
York City will not treat such expenses as investment expenses which are subject to such
limitations. Further, these limitations may apply to certain expenses of the Master Partnership and
Millennium USA that are not part of the Master Partnership's or Millennium USA's trade or
business. Prospective Limited Partners are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to
the impact of these provisions and the federal limitations on the deductibility of certain itemized
deductions and investment expenses on their New York State and New York City tax liability.
For purposes of the New York State corporate franchise tax and the New York City general
corporation tax, a corporation generally is treated as doing business in New York State and New
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-58
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003989
EFTA00239321
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
York City, respectively, and is subject to such corporate taxes as a result of the ownership of a
partnership interest in a partnership which does business in New York State and New York City,
respectively.' Each of the New York State and New York City corporate taxes are imposed, in
part, on the corporation's taxable income or capital allocable to the relevant jurisdiction by
application of the appropriate allocation percentages. Moreover, a non-New York corporation
which does business in New York State may be subject to a New York State license fee. A
corporation which is subject to New York State corporate franchise tax solely as a result of being
a limited partner in a New York partnership may, under certain circumstances, elect to compute
its New York State corporate franchise tax by taking into account only its distributive share of
such partnership's income and loss. There is currently no similar provision in effect for purposes
of the New York City general corporation tax.
Regulations under both the New York State corporate franchise tax and the New York City
general corporation tax, however, provide an exception to this general rule in the case of a
"portfolio investment partnership," which is defined, generally, as a partnership which meets the
gross income requirements of Section 851(b)(2) of the Code. New York State (but not New York
City) has adopted regulations that also include income and gains from commodity transactions
described in Section 864(bX2)(8Xiii) as qualifying gross income for this purpose. Millennium
USA's qualification as such a portfolio investment partnership must be determined on an annual
basis and, with respect to a taxable year, Millennium USA may not qualify as a portfolio
investment partnership.
New York State imposes a quarterly withholding obligation on certain partnerships with
respect to partners that are individual non-New York residents or corporations (other than "S"
corporations). Accordingly, Millennium USA may be required to withhold on the distributive
shares of New York source partnership income allocable to such partners to the extent such income
is not derived from trading in securities for Millennium USA's own account.
A trust or other unincorporated organization which by reason of its purposes or activities
is exempt from federal income tax is generally also exempt from New York State and New York
City personal income tax. A nonstock corporation which is exempt from federal income tax is
generally presumed to be exempt from New York State corporate franchise tax and New York City
general corporation tax. New York State imposes a tax with respect to such exempt entities on
UBTI (including unrelated debt-financed income) at a rate which is currently equal to 9%. There
is no New York City tax on the UBTI of an otherwise exempt entity.
Each prospective Partner should consult its tax advisor with regard to the New York State
and New York City tax consequences of an investment in Millennium USA.
12 New York State (but not New York City) generally exempts from corporate franchise tax a non-New York
corporation which (i) does not actually or constructively own a I% or greater limited partnership interest in a
partnership doing business in New York and (ii) has a tax basis in such limited partnership interest not greater than SI

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Foreign Taxes
It is possible that certain dividends and interest directly or indirectly received by
Millennium USA from sources within foreign countries will be subject to withholding taxes
imposed by such countries. In addition, Millennium USA or the Master Partnership may also be
subject to capital gains taxes in some of the foreign countries where they purchase and sell
securities. Tax treaties between certain countries and the United States may reduce or eliminate
such taxes. It is impossible to predict in advance the rate of foreign tax Millennium USA will
directly or indirectly pay since the amount of Millennium USA's assets to be invested in various
countries is not known.
The Limited Partners will be informed by Millennium USA as to their proportionate share
of the foreign taxes paid by Millennium USA or the Master Partnership , which they will be
required to include in their income. The Limited Partners generally will be entitled to claim either
a credit (subject, however, to various limitations on foreign tax credits) or, if they itemize their
deductions, a deduction (subject to the limitations generally applicable to deductions) for their
share of such foreign taxes in computing their federal income taxes. A Limited Partner that is tax-
exempt will not ordinarily benefit from such credit or deduction.
Interest, dividend and other income realized by Millennium USA or the Master Partnership
from non-U.S. sources, and capital gains realized, or gross sale or disposition proceeds received,
on the sale of securities of non-U.S. issuers, may be subject to withholding and other taxes levied
by the jurisdiction in which the income is sourced. Millennium Management and its affiliates
operate throughout the world in various jurisdictions, including the United Kingdom,
Luxembourg, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and Switzerland. Millennium Management and its
affiliates generally endeavor to conduct such activities in a manner such that the Master Partnership
(and Millennium USA) are not deemed to have a permanent establishment in any such jurisdiction,
and in a jurisdiction where a relevant tax exemption (e.g., for investment entities) are granted,
Millennium Management and its affiliates generally endeavor to enable to the Master Partnership
(and Millennium USA) to benefit from such exemption. However, it is possible that the Master
Partnership (or Millennium USA) may be deemed to have a permanent establishment in one or
more of those jurisdictions and that Millennium USA or the Master Partnership (and possibly
Limited Partners (directly or indirectly)) may be subject to non-U.S. net taxes and filing
obligations in connection therewith.
ERISA Considerations
THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY OF CERTAIN ASPECTS OF THE EMPLOYEE
RETIREMENT INCOME SECURITY ACT OF 1974, AS AMENDED ("ERISA") IS BASED
UPON ERISA, JUDICIAL DECISIONS, DEPARTMENT OF LABOR ("DOL")
REGULATIONS AND RULINGS IN EXISTENCE ON THE DATE HEREOF. THIS
SUMMARY IS GENERAL IN NATURE AND DOES NOT ADDRESS EVERY ERISA ISSUE
THAT MAY BE APPLICABLE TO MILLENNIUM USA, THE MASTER PARTNERSHIP OR
A PARTICULAR INVESTOR. ACCORDINGLY, EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR
SHOULD CONSULT WITH ITS OWN COUNSEL IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND THE
ERISA ISSUES AFFECTING MILLENNIUM USA, THE MASTER PARTNERSHIP AND THE
INVESTOR.

General
Persons who are fiduciaries with respect to a U.S. employee benefit plan or trust within the
meaning of and subject to the provisions of ERISA (an "ERISA Plan"), an individual retirement
account or a Keogh plan subject solely to the provisions of the Code13 (an "Individual Retirement
Account") should consider, among other things, the matters described below before determining
whether to invest in Millennium USA (and thus the Master Partnership).
ERISA imposes certain general and specific responsibilities on persons who are fiduciaries
with respect to an ERISA Plan, including prudence, diversification, avoidance of prohibited
transactions and compliance with other standards. In determining whether a particular investment
is appropriate for an ERISA Plan, DOL regulations provide that a fiduciary of an ERISA Plan must
give appropriate consideration to, among other things, the role that the investment plays in the
ERISA Plan's portfolio, taking into consideration whether the investment is designed reasonably to
further the ERISA Plan's purposes, the risk and return factors of the potential investment, including
the fact that the returns may be subject to U.S. federal tax as unrelated business taxable income, the
portfolio's composition with regard to diversification, the liquidity and current return of the total
portfolio relative to the anticipated cash flow needs of the ERISA Plan, the projected return of the
total portfolio relative to the ERISA Plan's funding objectives, and the limitation on the rights of
Limited Partners to withdraw all or any part of their Offered Interests or to transfer their Offered
Interests. Before investing the assets of an ERISA Plan in Millennium USA (and thus the Master
Partnership), a fiduciary should determine whether such an investment is consistent with its fiduciary
responsibilities and the foregoing regulations. For example, a fiduciary should consider whether an
investment in Millennium USA (and thus the Master Partnership) may be too illiquid or too
speculative for a particular ERISA Plan and whether the assets of the ERISA Plan would be
sufficiently diversified. If a fiduciary with respect to any such ERISA Plan breaches its
responsibilities with regard to selecting an investment or an investment course of action for such
ERISA Plan, the fiduciary may be held personally liable for losses incurred by the ERISA Plan as a
result of such breach.
Plan Assets Defined
ERISA and applicable DOL regulations describe when the underlying assets of an entity
in which "benefit plan investors", as defined in Section 3(42) of ERISA and any regulations
promulgated thereunder ("Benefit Plan Investors") invest are treated as "plan assets" for purposes
of ERISA. Under ERISA, the term Benefit Plan Investors is defined to include an "employee
benefit plan" that is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, a "plan" that is subject to the
prohibited transaction provisions of Section 4975 of the Code, and entities the assets of which are
treated as "plan assets" by reason of investment therein by Benefit Plan Investors.
Under ERISA, as a general rule, when an ERISA Plan invests assets in another entity, the
ERISA Plan's assets include its investment, but do not, solely by reason of such investment,
include any of the underlying assets of the entity. However, when an ERISA Plan acquires an
"equity interest" in an entity that is neither: (a) a "publicly offered security;" nor (b) a security
I3 References hereinafter made to ERISA include parallel references to the Code.
DOCID-29147063.5 I-61
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003992
EFTA00239324
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
issued by an investment fund registered under the Company Act, then the ERISA Plan's assets
include both the equity interest and an undivided interest in each of the underlying assets of the
entity, unless it is established that: (i) the entity is an "operating company;" or (ii) the equity
participation in the entity by Benefit Plan Investors is limited.
Under ERISA, the assets of an entity will not be treated as "plan assets" if Benefit Plan
Investors hold less than 25% (or such other percentage as may be specified from time to time in
regulations promulgated by the DOL) of the value of each class of equity interests in the entity.
Equity interests held by a person with discretionary authority or control with respect to the assets
of the entity and equity interests held by a person who provides investment advice for a fee (direct
or indirect) with respect to such assets or any affiliate of any such person (other than a Benefit
Plan Investor) are not considered for purposes of determining whether the assets of an entity will
be treated as "plan assets" for purposes of ERISA. The Benefit Plan Investor percentage of
ownership test applies at the time of an acquisition by any person of the equity interests. In
addition, an advisory opinion of the DOL takes the position that a withdrawal of an equity interest
by an investor constitutes the acquisition of an equity interest by the remaining investors (through
an increase in their percentage ownership of the remaining equity interests), thus triggering an
application of the Benefit Plan Investor percentage of ownership test at the time of the withdrawal.
Limitation on Investments by Benefit Plan Investors
It is the current intent of Millennium Management to monitor the investments in
Millennium USA and the Master Partnership to ensure that the aggregate investment by Benefit
Plan Investors does not equal or exceed 25% (or such other percentage as may be specified from
time to time in regulations promulgated by the DOL) of the value of any class of equity interests
in each of Millennium USA and the Master Partnership so that assets of neither Millennium USA
nor the Master Partnership will be treated as "plan assets" under ERISA. Interests held by
Millennium Management and its affiliates (other than a Benefit Plan Investor) are not considered
for purposes of determining whether the assets of Millennium USA will be treated as "plan assets"
for the purpose of ERISA. If the assets of Millennium USA were treated as "plan assets" of a
Benefit Plan Investor, Millennium Management would be a "fiduciary" (as defined in ERISA and
the Code) with respect to each such Benefit Plan Investor, and would be subject to the obligations
and liabilities imposed on fiduciaries by ERISA. Similarly, if the assets of the Master Partnership
were treated as "plan assets" of a Benefit Plan Investor, Millennium Management would be a
"fiduciary" (as defined in ERISA and the Code) with respect to each such Benefit Plan Investor,
and would be subject to the obligations and liabilities imposed on fiduciaries by ERISA. In such
circumstances, Millennium USA (and/or the Master Partnership, as appropriate) would be subject
to various other requirements of ERISA and the Code. In particular, Millennium USA (and/or the
Master Partnership, as appropriate) would be subject to rules restricting transactions with "parties
in interest" and prohibiting transactions involving conflicts of interest on the part of fiduciaries
which might result in a violation of ERISA and the Code unless Millennium USA (and/or the
Master Partnership, as appropriate) obtained appropriate exemptions from the DOL allowing
Millennium USA (and/or the Master Partnership, as appropriate) to conduct its operations as
described herein. As described above, under "Millennium USA's Organization, Management,
Structure, and Operations" — "Compulsory Withdrawal", Millennium Management reserves may,
in its sole discretion, require any Limited Partner to withdraw all or any portion of the balance in
its capital account(s), including, without limitation, to ensure compliance with the percentage
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-62
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003993
EFTA00239325
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
limitation on investment in Millennium USA by Benefit Plan Investors as set forth above. Similar
compulsory withdrawal terms apply to the Master Partnership. Millennium Management reserves
the right, however, to waive the percentage limitation on investment in Millennium USA (and
indirect investment in the Master Partnership) by Benefit Plan Investors and thereafter to comply
with ERISA.
Representations by Plans
An ERISA Plan proposing to invest in Millennium USA (and thus the Master Partnership)
will be required to represent that it is, and any fiduciaries responsible for the ERISA Plan's
investments are, aware of and understand Millennium USA's and the Master Partnership's
investment objectives, policies and strategies, and that the decision to invest plan assets in
Millennium USA (and thus the Master Partnership) was made with appropriate consideration of
relevant investment factors with regard to the ERISA Plan and is consistent with the duties and
responsibilities imposed upon fiduciaries with regard to their investment decisions under ERISA.
WHETHER OR NOT THE ASSETS OF MILLENNIUM USA OR THE MASTER
PARTNERSHIP ARE TREATED AS "PLAN ASSETS" FOR PURPOSES OF ERISA, AN
INVESTMENT IN MILLENNIUM USA (AND THUS THE MASTER PARTNERSHIP) BY AN
ERISA PLAN IS SUBJECT TO ERISA. ACCORDINGLY, FIDUCIARIES OF ERISA PLANS
SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR OWN COUNSEL AS TO THE CONSEQUENCES UNDER
ERISA OF AN INVESTMENT IN MILLENNIUM USA (AND THUS THE MASTER
PARTNERSHIP).
ERISA Plans and Individual Retirement Accounts Having Prior Relationships with Millennium
Management or its Affiliates
Certain prospective ERISA Plan and Individual Retirement Account investors may currently
maintain relationships with Millennium Management or other entities that are affiliated with
Millennium Management. Each of such entities may be deemed to be a party in interest to, and/or a
fiduciary of, any ERISA Plan or Individual Retirement Account to which any of Millennium
Management or its affiliates provides investment management, investment advisory or other
services. ERISA prohibits ERISA Plan assets to be used for the benefit of a party in interest and
also prohibits an ERISA Plan fiduciary from using its position to cause the ERISA Plan to make an
investment from which it or certain third parties in which such fiduciary has an interest would receive
a fee or other consideration. Similar provisions are imposed by the Code with respect to Individual
Retirement Accounts. ERISA Plan and Individual Retirement Account investors should consult with
counsel to determine if participation in Millennium USA (and thus the Master Partnership) is a
transaction that is prohibited by ERISA or the Code.
Eligible Indirect Compensation
The disclosures set forth in this Confidential Memorandum constitute Millennium's good
faith efforts to comply with the disclosure requirements of Form 5500, Schedule C and allow for
the treatment of its compensation as eligible indirect compensation.
Future Regulations andRulings

FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
The provisions of ERISA are subject to extensive and continuing administrative and
judicial interpretation and review. The discussion of ERISA contained herein is, of necessity,
general and may be affected by future publication of regulations and rulings. Potential investors
should consult with their legal advisors regarding the consequences under ERISA of the
acquisition and ownership of Offered Interests.
Anti-Money Laundering Considerations
Identity Verification
In order to comply with laws and regulations aimed at the prevention of money laundering
and terrorist financing, Millennium USA is required to adopt and maintain anti-money laundering
procedures and, accordingly, Millennium USA, or the Administrator on Millennium USA's behalf,
may require prospective purchasers to provide evidence to verify their identity, the identity of their
beneficial owners and controllers (where applicable), and the source of funds.
Millennium USA, and the Administrator on Millennium USA's behalf, may request such
information as is necessary to verify the identity of any Limited Partner (including any prospective
purchaser or a transferee) and the identity of their beneficial owners and controllers (where
applicable). Where the circumstances permit, Millennium USA, or the Administrator on
Millennium USA's behalf, may be satisfied that full due diligence may not be required at
subscription where an exemption applies under applicable law. However, detailed verification
information may be required prior to the payment of any withdrawal proceeds or any transfer of
an Offered Interest (unless Millennium USA or the Administrator on Millennium USA's behalf,
determines in its sole discretion, to rely on an applicable exemption under applicable law).
In the event of delay or failure by a prospective purchaser or Limited Partner to produce
any information required for verification purposes, Millennium USA, or the Administrator on
Millennium USA's behalf, may (i) refuse to accept or delay the acceptance of a subscription; (ii)
in the case of a transfer of Offered Interests, refuse to consent to the relevant transfer of Offered
Interests; or (iii) effect a compulsory withdrawal of any such Limited Partner from Millennium
USA.
Millennium USA, and the Administrator on Millennium USA's behalf, also may refuse to
make any withdrawal or distribution payment to a Limited Partner if Millennium Management or
the Administrator suspects or is advised that the payment of withdrawal proceeds or distribution
amounts to such Limited Partner may be non-compliant with applicable laws or regulations, or if
such refusal is considered nerPssary or appropriate to ensure the compliance by Millennium USA
or the Administrator with any applicable laws or regulations.
Freezing Accounts
Each of Millennium Management and the Administrator reserves the right, and Millennium
USA may be obligated, pursuant to any applicable anti-money laundering laws or the laws,
regulations, and Executive Orders administered by the U.S. Department of Treasury's Office of
Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC"), or other laws or regulations in any relevant jurisdiction
(collectively, "AML/OFAC Obligations"), to "freeze the account" of a prospective purchaser or
Limited Partner, either by (i) rejecting the capital contribution of a prospective purchaser or
DOC ID- 29147063.5 1-64
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00003995
EFTA00239327
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Limited Partner; (ii) segregating the assets in the account in compliance with applicable laws or
regulations; (iii) declining any withdrawal request of a Limited Partner; (iv) suspending payment
of withdrawal proceeds to a Limited Partner; and/or (v) refusing to make any distribution to a
Limited Partner. Millennium USA may be required to report such action and to disclose the identity
to OFAC or other applicable governmental and regulatory authorities.
Sanctions andRequiredRepresentations
Millennium USA is subject to laws that restrict it from dealing with certain persons,
including persons that are located or domiciled in sanctioned jurisdictions. Accordingly, each
prospective purchaser and Limited Partner (including any transferee) will be required to make
certain representations to Millennium USA in connection with applicable AML/OFAC
Obligations. Where a Limited Partner is named on the OFAC list, any list maintained under the
European Union or United Kingdom Regulations (as extended to the Cayman Islands by statutory
instrument) or any similar list maintained under applicable law, Millennium USA may be required
to cease any further dealings with the Limited Partner's interest in Millennium USA until such
sanctions are lifted or a license is sought under applicable law to continue dealings.
RequiredReporting

D, Class O, Class P, Class S, Class T, Class W, Class X, Class OO and Class PP interests, the

Summary of Part Two of the Confidential Memorandum
(Information Relating to Millennium Partners, L.P.)
The following is a summary of certain detailed information set forth more fully in the Third
Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, as amended or supplemented from time to
time (the "Partnership Agreement") ofMillennium Partners, L.P. (the "Master Partnership") and
elsewhere in this Confidential Memorandum. This summary should be read in conjunction with,
and is qualified in its entirety by, such detailed information.
The Master Partnership: The Master Partnership is an exempted limited partnership
registered under the laws of the Cayman Islands.
The Master Partnership currently accepts investments from a
limited number of affiliated private funds that invest all or a
portion of their assets, directly or indirectly, in the Master
Partnership or its trading subsidiaries or strategies (each, a
"Feeder Fund" and each such Feeder Fund collectively,
together with the Master Partnership, its trading subsidiaries or
strategies and the entities through which the Portfolio Managers
(as defined below) and related personnel invest in their
strategies, the "Fund").
Millennium Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company registered in the Cayman Islands, is the sole general
partner ofthe Master Partnership (the "General Partner"). The
Partnership Agreement grants substantially all of the power to
control the affairs and operations of the Master Partnership to
the General Partner, which is in turn currently ultimately
controlled by Israel A. Englander as the controlling trustee of
the Millennium Group Management Trust. The General Partner,
its affiliated Relying Advisers (as defined herein) and other
affiliated entities that participate in the management of the
Master Partnership's assets are collectively referred to herein as
"Millennium."
Certain Risk Factors: The investment program of the Fund involves significant risks,
including the Fund's reliance upon Millennium and internal and
third-party portfolio managers (the "Portfolio Managers")
selected by Millennium, the use of leverage and trading in
derivative instruments, and certain potential conflicts of interest
related to investment opportunities and business activities among
the Fund's affiliates and their management. See "Certain Risk
Factors Relating to an Investment in the Fund" and "Related-
Party Transactions and Other Accounts; Conflicts."
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004004
EFTA00239336
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
The Fund's Investment The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve above-
Program and StrateEv: average appreciation by opportunistically trading and investing
in a wide variety of securities, instruments and other investment
opportunities, and engaging in a broad array of trading and
investment strategies. THERE ARE NO SUBSTANTIVE
LIMITS ON THE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES THAT MAY
BE PURSUED BY THE MASTER PARTNERSHIP. See "The
Fund's Investment Program and Description: Investment
Strategies."
Millennium is responsible for managing the capital of the Fund
in accordance with the Fund's investment objective.
Millennium selects, monitors and evaluates Portfolio Managers
and allocates and reallocates the Fund's invested capital among
them. Millennium also makes direct (i.e., not through Portfolio
Managers) investments of the Fund's capital, either as a profit-
seeking investment (e.g., direct trading activities, which may
include increasing the Fund's exposure to certain strategies or
positions or to the net combined positions held by a number of
Portfolio Managers) or as hedges, or "contra" trades that seek to
establish a reduction in certain exposures. See "The Fund's
Investment Program and Strategy."
As discussed under "The Fund's Investment Program and
Description: Eligible Investments," Millennium does not
establish fixed guidelines regarding diversification of
investments to be followed by the Fund; the Fund is authorized
to invest in all types of securities and other financial instruments
of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers, and to sell securities short.
The Fund invests opportunistically and the universe of eligible
investments is not materially limited by any Millennium
policies. However, as is disclosed under "The Fund's
Investment Program and Description: Investment Strategies,"
the investment strategies that the Fund employs include, among
others, most or all of the following core strategies:
• Relative Value Fundamental Equity;
• Statistical Arbitrage/Quantitative,
• Fixed-Income;
• Merger Arbitrage and Event-Driven; and
• Commodities.
II-2
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004005
EFTA00239337
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
The Fund may, and typically does, also invest in certain other
strategies which may include, among others, closed-end
fund/asset arbitrage, distressed investing, convertible arbitrage
and options arbitrage.
The Fund may concentrate investments in a select few strategies
while not employing others and may employ additional
investment strategies or suspend any such strategies, as
determined by Millennium in its discretion, at any time without
notice.
Leverage: The Fund has the power to borrow and ordinarily does borrow
very significant sums on a secured or unsecured basis and will
continue to do so whenever deemed appropriate by Millennium,
including to enhance the Fund's returns and meet withdrawal
obligations that would otherwise result in the premature
liquidation of investments. Additionally, certain exchange-
traded, non-exchange-traded, derivative and other securities and
instruments that may be traded will themselves have embedded
leverage. The use of leverage can substantially increase the risk
of losses to which the Fund's investment portfolio may be
subject. See "The Fund's Investment Program and Description:
Leverage and Loans."
Risk Management: Millennium's risk management personnel engage in regular
monitoring of the Fund's portfolio and of the Portfolio
Managers' trading activity. The results of this monitoring
program are used to assess the risk-adjusted profitability of the
Portfolio Managers (using a number of metrics), to make capital
allocation decisions, and to quantify and manage the risks
inherent in the Fund's portfolio. See "The Fund's Management,
Structure and Operations."
The Master Partnership's All expenses incurred by or allocated to the Master Partnership,
Fees and Expenses: without limitation, are assessed against the interests of the
partners of the Master Partnership and, in turn, against the
interests of investors in the Feeder Funds, including, without
limitation, expenses incurred by Millennium with respect to, or
in connection with (e.g., through the operation of and the
provision of services to), the Master Partnership. The Master
Partnership does not charge or pay Millennium a management
fee. See "The Master Partnership's Fees and Expenses" for a
non-exhaustive list of such expenses, including, without
limitation, the following general expense categories:
compensation and fringe benefits payable to employees, and
fees payable to others providing services to the Muter
Partnership; expenses related to computers, equipment and
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004006
EFTA00239338
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
technology; expenses related to maintaining offices, including
leases and fixtures; insurance premiums; expenses related to
investment activities; accounting, valuation, audit, tax and legal
expenses; fees and expenses paid for the investment advisory
services of affiliated entities that participate in the management
of the Master Partnership's assets; and other miscellaneous
expenses.
Brokerage Issues: As discussed below under "The Fund's Investment Program and
Description: Brokerage Issues," the Fund executes and clears
transactions through a number ofbrokerage firms. Brokers may
also act as custodians for the Fund's securities. To the extent
that securities are purchased in non-U.S. markets, non-U.S.
brokers and/or custodians (including sub-custodians of prime
brokers) may be used and may maintain custody of the securities
until such time as they are sold.
In selecting brokers, dealers and other counterparties to effect
portfolio transactions for the Fund and provide financing for the
Fund's portfolio, Millennium and its Portfolio Managers will
consider such factors as they deem appropriate under the
circumstances. Millennium does not have an obligation to
obtain the lowest available commission cost. Accordingly, if
Millennium determines in good faith that the commissions
charged by a broker or the prices charged by a dealer are
reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research
products or services provided by the broker or dealer, the Fund
may pay commissions to the broker or prices to the dealer in an
amount greater than another might charge. Subject to its duty
to seek to obtain best execution, Millennium has complete
discretion in deciding what brokers, dealers and other
counterparties the Fund will use and in negotiating the rates of
compensation the Fund will pay to such brokers, dealers and
other counterparties. In many instances that discretion is
delegated to Portfolio Managers who make specific trading
decisions, subject to oversight by Millennium. Millennium
maintains policies and procedures to review the quality of
executions, including periodic review by relevant personnel.
See "The Fund's Investment Program and Description:
Brokerage."
From time to time, brokers (including prime brokers) assist the
Fund and other Feeder Funds and products in raising additional
capital. Additionally, brokers provide capital introduction and
marketing assistance services, and Millennium's representatives
from time to time speak at conferences and programs sponsored
by brokers, for investors interested in investing in private
11-4
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004007
EFTA00239339
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
investment funds. Through such events, prospective investors
in the Fund or other Feeder Funds and products encounter
Millennium's representatives. Certain of the Fund's prime
brokers (or their affiliates) also advise private funds or clients
that make investments in the Feeder Funds or may facilitate such
investments in other ways. Neither Millennium nor the Fund
directly compensate any prime broker for engaging in such
activities (except in circumstances where Millennium is
required to do so under applicable law). However, the events
and other services provided by a prime broker may influence
Millennium to some extent in selecting prime brokers and
determining the extent to which a prime broker will be used.
With respect to "soft dollar" arrangements, the conflicts that
typically give rise to concerns underlying the use of soft dollars
do not generally exist for Millennium, because the Fund (and
not the General Partner) bears all of the expenses related to its
own operation. Therefore, the use of soft dollars by Millennium
generally does not result in any expense shifting between the
General Partner, on the one hand, and the Fund (and, indirectly,
investors in the Feeder Funds), on the other hand.
Millennium has determined that the use of soft dollars will be
limited to payment for research and brokerage products and
services that Millennium believes meet the requirements of
Section 28(e) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934
("Section 28(e)"), and the U.S. Securities Exchange
Commission ("SEC") interpretations thereof, in jurisdictions
and transactions where Section 28(e) applies. Although
potentially outside the scope of Section 28(e), Millennium has
also adopted a policy to the effect that the requirements of
Section 28(e) should generally be satisfied by its non-U.S.
management companies in addition to any local requirements
that are applicable to a particular management company with
respect to the use of soft dollars.
Millennium generates soft dollars with commissions on
securities transactions, and, in accordance with SEC
interpretations, with markups, markdowns, commission
equivalents or other fees paid to a dealer for executing a
transaction. In addition, to the extent consistent with applicable
regulatory requirements, soft dollars may be generated through
futures transactions, certain principal transactions, non-U.S.
transactions or other transactions.
A consequence of the use of soft dollar arrangements is that,
under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, items that
II-5
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004008
EFTA00239340
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
would otherwise be characterized as expenses in the
consolidated financial statements of the Master Partnership will
instead be subsumed within commissions. As a result, line-item
expenses will appear smaller than they would have had soft
dollars not been utilized. It is possible that some expenses paid
through the utilization of soft dollar arrangements might be
greater than if Millennium or the Fund had purchased the
research or brokerage services in question directly or had
produced them internally.
In certain jurisdictions, separate research charges may be
assessed alongside the Fund's transactions and collected by the
Fund's trading counterparty, for the purpose of funding a
research payment account controlled by Millennium. Such
research charges are separate and independent of any
commissions.
Given the Fund's investment program, short-term market
considerations are frequently involved. Turnover of portions of
the Fund's portfolio, and, therefore, brokerage commissions,
will be substantially greater than the turnover rates of other
types of investment vehicles.
Related-Party Significant conflicts of interest among the Fund (and investors
Transactions: Conflicts: in the Feeder Funds), Millennium management entities and
Millennium principals may exist from time to time. These
conflicts include, but are not limited to, conflicts arising from
businesses conducted by the Millennium management entities
that are unrelated to, and may be competitive with, the
businesses of the Fund, including sponsorship or management
of other investment funds, conflicts related to third party fund
investments, and the allocation of certain investments directly
to affiliates, including the Feeder Funds. See "Related-Party
Transactions; Conflicts."
Certain Tax Matters As discussed under "Certain Tax Matters Relating to the Master
Relating to the Master Partnership," the Master Partnership is an exempted limited
Partnership: partnership under Cayman Islands law. The Master Partnership
has received an undertaking as to tax concessions pursuant to
Section 17 of the Exempted Limited Partnership Law (as
amended) from the Governor in Cabinet of the Cayman Islands
dated November 28, 2000, which provides that, for a period of
50 years from the date thereof, no law thereafter enacted in the
Cayman Islands imposing any taxes to be levied on income or
capital assets, gains or appreciation will apply to any income or
property of the Master Partnership.
11-6
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004009
EFTA00239341
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
There can be no assurance that the U.S. or Cayman Islands tax
laws or the tax laws of other relevant jurisdictions will not be
changed adversely with respect to the Master Partnership, the
Feeder Funds, or their respective investors or that their income
tax status will not be successfully challenged by such
authorities.
Prospective investors should consult their own advisers
regarding tax treatment by the jurisdiction applicable to them.
Investors should rely only upon advice received from their own
tax advisers based upon their own individual circumstances and
the laws applicable to them.
Certain Reeulatory Each of the Master Partnership and the Feeder Funds is exempt
Matters: from registration under the U.S. Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), pursuant
to Section 3(cX7) thereof.
The General Partner is registered as an investment adviser with
the SEC under the U.S. Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as
amended. Certain affiliates of the General Partner and certain
Portfolio Managers are "Relying Advisers" who rely on the
General Partner's registration as an investment adviser. The
General Partner is also registered as a commodity trading
advisor with the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
Certain of the Fund's non-U.S. based investment managers are
registered or licensed in their local jurisdictions, as described
under "The Fund's Management, Structure and Operations—
Affiliated Relying Advisers," and a number ofaffiliated entities
are registered under the U.S. Commodities Exchange Act, as
amended, as described under "Certain Legal and Regulatory
Matters Relating to the Fund—U.S. Commodities Exchange
Act."
Fiscal Year: The fiscal year-end of the Master Partnership is December 31.
The Master Partnership's The Master Partnership has retained Ernst & Young LLP, 5

PART TWO: INFORMATION SPECIFIC TO THE FUND
The Fund's Investment Program and Strategy
Investment Objective
The investment objective of the Fund (as defined herein) is to achieve above-
average appreciation by opportunistically trading and investing in a wide variety of
securities, instruments and other investment opportunities, and engaging in a broad array
of trading and investment strategies. There are no substantive limits on the investment
strategies that may be pursued by the Fund.
As is described in greater detail below, in carrying out its investment program and
strategies, the Fund may, directly or indirectly, trade, invest in or otherwise obtain exposure
to U.S. and non-U.S. equity and debt securities (both public and non-public), currencies,
futures and forward contracts, commodities, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities,
options and other derivative instruments, loan participations and other means of obtaining
credit exposure to selected borrowers, and a variety of other investment opportunities.
Portfolio Managers
Millennium (as defined herein) is responsible for managing the capital of the Fund
in accordance with the Fund's investment objectives. Millennium selects, monitors and
evaluates Portfolio Managers (as defined herein) and allocates and reallocates the Fund's
invested capital among them. Subject to the oversight of Millennium, the Portfolio
Managers generally make day-to-day investment and trading decisions for the Fund. The
term "Portfolio Manager" refers to a group, typically one to five individuals but
sometimes many more, operating as a single team to manage a portion of the Fund's assets.
In some instances a team-member is a sub-Portfolio Manager to whom day-to-day
responsibility for oversight of a portion of a Portfolio Manager's portfolio is delegated.
Although most ofMillennium's Portfolio Managers are actively involved in the day-to-day
investment decision-making process with respect to their respective strategies, Millennium
may, and does, allocate capital to Portfolio Managers who manage larger teams and whose
primary function is to oversee and manage other investment personnel that are responsible
for making investment decisions within a particular strategy or strategies. Most Portfolio
Managers are employed by Millennium, while certain others are third-party independent
contractors not employed by Millennium, and in certain cases are Relying Advisers (as
defined herein). Certain Portfolio Managers employed by Millennium form limited
liability companies or other entities in connection with the performance of their services to
Millennium. Portfolio Managers operate their respective trading groups and are primarily
responsible for their groups' trading, personnel, and similar decisions, subject to
Millennium's risk management, and, in the case ofPortfolio Managers that are Millennium
employees or that are Relying Advisers, to Millennium's supervision and control.
Portfolio Managers that are independent contractors are responsible for hiring of
personnel and certain other aspects of their business, although Millennium generally retains
ultimate control over the Millennium accounts managed by such Portfolio Managers.
11-8
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004011
EFTA00239343
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Millennium may also provide certain administrative or other services to such Portfolio
Managers, and has done so for certain Portfolio Managers. Certain of such Portfolio
Managers also manage capital for one or more other clients.
Certain Portfolio Managers who were directly employed by Millennium or who
managed assets of the Fund exclusively have become independent contractors or are now
providing services to other clients, and others may do so in the future.
Firm Trading
Millennium also makes direct (i.e., not through Portfolio Managers) investments of
the Fund's capital, either as a profit-seeking investment (e.g., direct trading activities) or
as hedges or "contra" trades that seek to establish a reduction in certain of the Fund's
exposures. Millennium's direct trading activities have included, and may in the future
include, increasing (potentially materially) the Fund's exposure to certain strategies or
positions or to netted positions held by a number of Portfolio Managers. However, there
is no obligation for Millennium to engage in such activities. Additionally, there is no
guarantee that direct trading activities will be profitable, and, with respect to increasing the
Fund's exposure to certain strategies or positions, such activities may exacerbate any losses
associated with such strategies or positions.
Investments in Funds Managed by Third--Party Managers
In some cases, the Fund's capital is invested in investment funds managed by third-
party asset managers. The Fund or Millennium may also take an equity stake in the third-
party management company. See "Related-Party Transactions and Other Accounts;
Conflicts."
Other Structures
The Fund may also, from time to time, enter into joint venture arrangements
(including with Portfolio Managers), co-invest with third parties, and provide seed capital
to managers, or enter into relationships that encompass elements of more than one of these
categories, as well as new structures that Millennium determines are appropriate for the
Fund. Millennium may in the future establish additional Feeder Funds or investment
vehicles that invest in the Master Partnership directly or through existing Feeder Funds, or
establish new classes of shares or interests of existing Feeder Funds. The Master
Partnership has invested and may continue to invest a portion of its assets in investment
funds managed by third party Portfolio Managers.
The Master Partnership's Organization
Organization
Organization of the Master Partnership; Master-Feeder Relationship. Millennium
Partners, L.P. (the "Master Partnership") was initially organized in 1989 as a Delaware
limited partnership and was redomiciled in the Cayman Islands as of January 1, 2000. The
Master Partnership is registered as an exempted limited partnership in the Cayman Islands
11-9
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004012
EFTA00239344
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
and therefore, as described below under "Certain Tax Matters Relating to the Master
Partnership — Certain Cayman Islands Tax Matters," general and limited partners in the
Master Partnership are not currently subject to income, corporation, capital gains or other
taxes in the Cayman Islands. Millennium Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company (the "General Partner") is also registered as a foreign company in the Cayman
Islands as required by Cayman Islands law for the general partner of an exempted limited
partnership. The General Partner may change its legal structure in the future and become
a limited partnership or similar limited liability vehicle without notice to investors in the
Feeder Funds. The General Partner, its affiliated Relying Advisers (as defined herein) and
other affiliated entities that participate in the management of the Master Partnership's
assets are collectively referred to herein as "Millennium." Millennium may sponsor one
or more additional investment vehicles, and in some cases Feeder Funds may invest in
other assets including through managed accounts managed by the General Partner or its
affiliates, which may to some degree compete with the Fund for some investment
opportunities and may present additional conflicts. See "Related-Party Transactions and
Other Accounts; Conflicts."
The General Partner is the sole general partner of the Master Partnership, with
substantially all of the power to control its affairs and operations.
The Master Partnership currently accepts investments from a limited number of
affiliated private funds that invest all or a portion of their assets, directly or indirectly, in
the Master Partnership or the Master Partnership's trading subsidiaries or strategies (each,
a "Feeder Fund" and each such Feeder Fund collectively, together with the Master
Partnership, its trading subsidiaries or strategies and the entities through which the
Portfolio Managers and related personnel invest in their strategies, the "Fund").
Currently, the Feeder Funds are:
• Millennium USA LP ("Millennium USA"), a Delaware limited partnership
formed in November 1997, which accepts investments from taxable U.S.
investors that qualify as "accredited investors" and "qualified purchasers"
under the U.S. federal securities laws. Millennium USA primarily invests
its capital in the Master Partnership.
• Millennium International, Ltd. ("Millennium International"), an
exempted company incorporated in December 1997 under the laws of the
Cayman Islands, which accepts investments from persons who are not "U.S.
Persons" and from tax-exempt U.S. Persons (e.g., 501(cX3) non-profit
organizations and individual retirement accounts) that qualify as
"accredited investors" and "qualified purchasers" under the U.S. federal
securities laws. Millennium International primarily invests its capital
indirectly in the Master Partnership, through its investment in Millennium
Offshore Intermediate, L.P. ("Millennium Offshore Intermediate"), a
Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership formed in May 2011.
II-10
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004013
EFTA00239345
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
• Millennium Global Estate LP ("Millennium Global Estate"), a Delaware
limited partnership formed in May 2000, which accepts investments only
from insurance company segregated asset accounts, insurance company
qualified general accounts and insurance dedicated partnerships that qualify
as "accredited investors" and "qualified purchasers" under the U.S. federal
securities laws. In accordance with the investment requirements imposed
by applicable insurance laws and regulations, Millennium Global Estate
invests a portion of its assets in the Master Partnership only as a part of a
broader investment strategy.
Subsidiaries
The Master Partnership owns or controls a number of direct or indirect subsidiaries
that may trade in their own names and are currently generally consolidated into the
financial reports of the Master Partnership. Although there is currently no plan to do so,
the Master Partnership may in the future invest in trading subsidiaries that take in outside
investments, and the Feeder Funds may in the future invest directly in the Master
Partnership's trading subsidiaries.
Capital Structure
The equity ownership of the Master Partnership is divided into general partner
interests and limited partner interests. The interests differ in the amount of liability that
they impose on their holders and in the ability to control the Master Partnership. The
liability of limited partners is generally limited to the amount of invested capital at risk,
while the liability of general partners can exceed invested capital. The Third Amended and
Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of the Master Partnership, as amended or
supplemented from time to time (the "Partnership Agreement"), grants the power to
control the Master Partnership to the General Partner. The general partner interests and the
limited partner interests both participate in the net capital appreciation and net capital
depreciation of the Master Partnership, with the capital account of each partner being
adjusted on a monthly basis to reflect changes in the Master Partnership's net asset value.
There is no incentive compensation paid or allocated to the General Partner at the Master
Partnership level.
Certain Risk Factors Relating to an Investment in the Fund
Prospective investors should consider the following factors in determining whether
an investment in a Feeder Fund is a suitable investment:
Business and Structural Risks
Possible Effect of Withdrawals andRedemptions
Substantial withdrawals of capital by a Feeder Fund from the Master Partnership in
connection with investor withdrawals or redemptions could require the Master Partnership
to liquidate investments more rapidly than might otherwise be desirable to raise the
necessary cash to fund the withdrawals. Similarly, Feeder Funds or other investment
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004014
EFTA00239346
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
vehicles established by Millennium from time to time may invest directly in certain entities
through which the Fund invests its capital, and may add or withdraw capital from such
entities from time to time without notice to investors in the Feeder Funds. There is a risk
that substantial withdrawals and redemptions could be targeted for a single date or occur
during a short period of time; moreover, contractual limits on withdrawals and redemptions
and early withdrawal or redemption charges may be waived and will not apply upon the
occurrence of a Trigger Event (as defined in Part One of the applicable version of this
Confidential Memorandum) with respect to those classes of shares or interests of a Feeder
Fund with a redemption right in the event of a Trigger Event. Additionally, as discussed
below under "Leveraged Deferred Compensation and Similar Arrangements," certain
contracts with counterparties who have provided leverage in connection with deferred
compensation arrangements of principals and/or senior officers have invested in a class of
shares of a Feeder Fund whereby the equity capital held by the counterparty can be
withdrawn from the Feeder Fund under certain circumstances, without the imposition of
contractual limits on withdrawals, and such terms are likely to be applicable in connection
with similar arrangements expected to be established in the future for investments in the
Feeder Funds that are not part of deferred compensation arrangements. As a result, the
ability of the Fund to plan for and anticipate the volume of withdrawals and redemptions
(other than the advance written notice requirements imposed by the Feeder Funds'
organizational documents) can be limited.
In the event that there are substantial withdrawals, the Fund could find it difficult
to adjust its asset allocation and investment strategies to the suddenly reduced amounts of
assets. In addition, in order to provide sufficient funds to pay the amounts withdrawn, the
Fund might be required to close out positions at an inappropriate time or on unfavorable
terms, and events of default and increased collateral requirements could be triggered under
certain of the Fund's borrowing facilities and counterparty relationships. In the event of a
high volume of withdrawals, such liquidation of positions could adversely affect the value
of an investor's interests. Finally, to the extent that a Feeder Fund reduces the restrictions
on redemptions that are applicable to its investors, the Fund may be in a position where it
is attempting to liquidate less liquid positions to satisfy redemption requests from the other
Feeder Funds' investors, which could adversely affect the value of an investor's interests.
Furthermore, certain classes of shares of the Feeder Funds have different liquidity
terms than other Feeder Funds, which may permit investors in such classes to withdraw
capital at a time when investors in other classes are not permitted to do so. For example,
Millennium Global Estate, which was established for insurance company segregated
accounts, insurance company general accounts and insurance dedicated partnerships,
permits withdrawals from limited partners' capital accounts in amounts necessary to satisfy
death benefit obligations payable in respect of a limited partner's obligations under an
insurance policy and under certain circumstances required by applicable law. Millennium
may in the future establish additional classes or Feeder Funds or investment vehicles that
invest in the Master Partnership which provide liquidity terms similar to those of
Millennium Global Estate or otherwise permit investors to withdraw capital to comply with
requirements that are outside of Millennium's control or otherwise at times when investors
in other classes or Feeder Funds are not permitted to do so.
II-12
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004015
EFTA00239347
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Business Dependent on Key Individuals; Reliance on Portfolio Managers
The success of the Fund is significantly dependent upon the expertise of a number
ofindividuals including certain of those individuals listed under "The Fund's Management,
Structure and Operations—Principal and Key Managers" below. If certain of these
individuals or other individuals designated as such from time to time should cease to be
involved in the ongoing operation of Millennium for any reason, the Fund may be exposed
to the risk of termination of critical agreements containing "key man" clauses. In addition,
in the case of the death, disability, adjudication of incompetency, bankruptcy, insolvency
or withdrawal ofMr. Englander, the Fund may be exposed to the withdrawal or redemption,
without the imposition of contractual limits on withdrawals and redemptions or early
withdrawal or redemption charges, of a substantial portion of the equity capital of the Fund.
Millennium grants trading authority to a number of Portfolio Managers. The
success of the Fund's investment program (and the return on investments in the Feeder
Funds) depends generally on the performance of these Portfolio Managers, rather than on
the trading and investing skills of Millennium itself. To the extent that Millennium is
unable to select, manage, allocate appropriate levels of capital to and retain Portfolio
Managers that, in the aggregate, are able to produce consistent positive returns for the Fund
(particularly, outperforming Portfolio Managers) or, conversely, to the extent that
Millennium does not adequately monitor, supervise and allocate capital away from
Portfolio Managers that are underperforming, the performance of the Fund (and the return
on investments in the Feeder Funds) will be adversely affected. Portfolio Managers who
are successful may be able to negotiate agreements providing for additional compensation
to them, which will reduce the profits available to the Feeder Funds and their investors.
Investment by Related Parties of Millennium
The principal, senior officers and certain employees of Millennium, and other
related parties, may invest in, or have an interest in the returns of, the Fund through a
number of channels, including in certain cases through deferred compensation
arrangements. Some of these investments have been leveraged through the extension of
credit by a third party to the investment vehicle through which these parties invest. In
connection with structuring these investments, the third parties typically make an
investment in a class of shares or interests of the relevant Feeder Fund that is entitled to
more favorable liquidation and other rights than other classes under certain circumstances.
For example, upon the occurrence of certain events, including declines in the capital of the
Master Partnership or such Feeder Fund below pre-determined thresholds and changes in
senior management, such extensions of credit can be terminated by the counterparties and
the shares or interests of the Feeder Fund pledged to or held by the counterparties (up to an
amount necessary to repay the extension of financing) can be redeemed or withdrawn
without the imposition of contractual limits on redemptions or withdrawals or early
redemption or withdrawal charges, on either a monthly or quarterly basis. In addition,
Portfolio Managers (and related personnel) are given the opportunity to invest in entities
through which they are able to achieve the rate of return of their own strategies. Such
investments only share in the expenses generally allocated to such portfolio for purposes
of determining compensation of Portfolio Managers and not the expenses of a Feeder Fund
II-13
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004016
EFTA00239348
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
or the Master Partnership generally. Such entities could also lead to potential conflicts of
interests. (See "Related-Party Transactions and Other Accounts; Conflicts; Portfolio
Manager Investment in Own Strategies".) While Millennium believes that in substantially
all situations these kinds of relationships are useful in aligning the interests of management
and Portfolio Managers with those of investors, they can lead to situations where the
interests of management or Portfolio Managers diverge from those of other investors.
Competition
The success of the Fund is dependent upon the talents and efforts of highly skilled
individuals. Millennium faces intense competition in attracting and retaining successful
Portfolio Managers. Millennium's ability to continue to compete effectively will depend
upon its ability to identify and attract new successful Portfolio Managers and retain and
motivate existing successful Portfolio Managers, and the failure to do so may have a
material adverse effect on the Fund. In addition, at any given time, a relatively small
number of Portfolio Managers may be responsible for a significant majority of the Fund's
positive performance. The investment management field is intensively competitive and
there are few bathers to entry. As a result, the Fund's Portfolio Managers are constantly
facing new competition for profitable transactions, and successful portfolio managers from
existing firms, including Millennium, may form new firms engaged in strategies similar to
those employed by Millennium. To the extent any such competitors are successful, the
opportunities available to the Fund, and its potential profitability, may be reduced.
Role of Technology
The Fund is heavily dependent on its technology and communications links. On
the trading side, the ability to gather large amounts of current and historical data, process
that data against a static or dynamic trading model, and execute trades before a window of
opportunity (which can be open for as little as a few milliseconds) closes is of critical
importance to some of the Fund's Portfolio Managers. The Fund's operations function
relies heavily on technology for processing and settling trades. For compliance purposes,
the availability of highly accurate, auditable data is important for monitoring compliance
with applicable regulations. While Millennium devotes significant resources to the firm's
technology and communications needs, the Fund may experience disruptive or gradual
technological or communications failures that could result in substantial economic
damages (including missed opportunities for profit) to the Fund. Millennium has
outsourced certain information technology services and may, at any time and without
notice to investors, determine to outsource a substantial amount of the information
technology services that Millennium currently provides to the Fund. Millennium may also
determine at any time to use internal resources to provide information technology services
that currently are (or may in the future be) outsourced. To the extent that the Fund
outsources such services, the Fund's operations may be highly dependent on such services
and the successful operation of such services will often be out of the Fund's or
Millennium's control. The failure of one or more outsourced services could have a material
adverse effect on the Fund.
11-14
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004017
EFTA00239349
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
In addition, there can be no assurance that the Fund's technology and
communications links will continue to be able to accommodate its growth, or that the cost
of maintaining such systems will not increase from its current level. Such a failure to
accommodate growth or such an increase in costs could have a material adverse effect on
the Fund.
Cybersecuriry Risk
As part of its business, Millennium processes, stores and transmits large amounts
of electronic information, including information relating to the strategies and transactions
of the Fund, proprietary software, and personally identifiable information of prospective,
current and former investors in the Feeder Funds, and other persons. Similarly, Millennium
and the Fund have numerous service providers and such service providers, including the
Administrator, process, store, transmit or access such information. Millennium has
procedures and systems in place that are designed to protect such information and prevent
data loss and security breaches. However, such measures cannot provide absolute security.
The techniques used to obtain unauthorized access to data, disable or degrade service, or
sabotage systems change frequently and have become increasingly more sophisticated, and
may be difficult to prevent or detect. Hardware or software acquired from third parties
may contain defects in design or manufacture or other problems that could unexpectedly
compromise information security. Network connected services provided by third parties
to Millennium may be susceptible to compromise, leading to a breach of Millennium's
network. Millennium's systems and facilities may be susceptible to employee error or
malfeasance, government surveillance or other security threats. On-line services provided
by Millennium to investors in the Feeder Funds may also be susceptible to compromise.
Breach of Millennium's information systems may cause information relating to the
transactions of the Fund and personally identifiable information of investors in the Feeder
Funds or others to be lost or improperly accessed, used or disclosed.
Millennium's and the Fund's service providers are subject to the same electronic
information security threats as Millennium. If a service provider fails to adopt or adhere
to adequate data security policies, or in the event of a breach of its networks, information
relating to the strategies and transactions of the Fund and personally identifiable
information of investors in the Feeder Funds may be lost or improperly accessed, used or
disclosed.
The loss or improper access, use or disclosure of Millennium's or the Fund's
proprietary information may cause Millennium or the Fund to suffer, among other things,
financial loss, the disruption of its business, liability to third parties, regulatory intervention
or reputational damage. Any of the foregoing events could have a material adverse effect
on the Fund and the Feeder Fund investors' investments therein. Millennium seeks to
maintain insurance covering potential cybersecurity risk. However, there can be no
assurance as to the adequacy of such coverage, and cybersecurity coverage is complex,
relatively new and untested in the market and there is significant potential uncertainty
regarding the extent to which cyber-related losses or expenses may be able to be recovered
under such a policy.
II-I5
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004018
EFTA00239350
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Business Continuity
Millennium's headquarters, located in New York, are important to the continued
business of the Fund. A disaster or a disruption in the infrastructure that supports the
Fund's businesses, including a disruption involving electronic communications or other
services used by the Fund or third parties with whom it conducts business, or directly
affecting Millennium's headquarters, may have a material adverse impact on the Fund.
Although the Fund provides redundancy and diversity for communications and related
systems wherever practicable and although it has a business continuity plan, which
includes, among other features, replication of certain data to geographically diverse
locations and replication of communications links, there can be no assurance that these
measures will be sufficient to mitigate the harm that may result from such a disaster or
infrastructure disruption. Some types of potential disasters, such as mass influenza or
contagion, are not susceptible to minimization through recovery sites or contingency plans
and certain disasters may not be foreseeable.
Portfolio Manager and Related Compensation Structure Risk
Portfolio Managers are primarily compensated through performance-based
compensation (which is borne by the Feeder Funds as described below) determined as a
percentage of profits earned by the Portfolio Manager during the preceding calendar year,
with profits measured on an accrual (i.e., mark-to-market) basis, and without taking into
account the performance of other Portfolio Managers or of the Fund generally. If a
Portfolio Manager suffers net losses during the year, generally the losses are carried
forward and past losses must be made up before performance-based compensation becomes
payable in subsequent years. Portfolio Managers also receive a salary or"base" fees, which
are generally treated as an advance against their profits interests if there are profits
(although for certain Portfolio Managers may instead be treated as an expense of their
respective accounts). There is generally no "carryback" or "clawback" of losses to permit
recouping of profit interests from prior years. Portfolio Managers with positive
performance will receive performance-based compensation even if the Fund's overall
returns are negative. Millennium has agreed and may in the future agree to "guarantee" a
level of compensation for a Portfolio Manager or other personnel for a particular year (or
years) or to replace compensation that a Portfolio Manager or other personnel has forfeited
in connection with the termination ofprior employment. Millennium has from time to time
negotiated and may in the future negotiate different compensation arrangements with
Portfolio Managers and other personnel than those described above.
This compensation structure inevitably may be seen to create an incentive for a
Portfolio Manager to accept significant risks, in excess of levels that the Fund might find
acceptable, in seeking to obtain profits, particularly near the end of a year in which losses
have been incurred. Nonetheless, the Fund has found the compensation scheme generally
effective over time in providing trading incentives that correspond appropriately to the
Fund's goals. Millennium's principal and senior management collectively have a relatively
large investment in the Fund (both by direct investment in one or more Feeder Funds and
through deferred compensation arrangements, which earn a return (or suffer losses)
identical to the return (or loss) of one of the Feeder Funds), so that senior management's
II-16
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004019
EFTA00239351
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
interests in such matters are reasonably well aligned with the interests of investors
generally.
In addition, certain personnel who assist in overseeing groups of Portfolio
Managers (e.g., the head of a particular strategy) receive compensation based on the overall
performance of such Portfolio Managers. The compensation of Portfolio Managers and
such personnel responsible for overseeing Portfolio Managers (as well as other Millennium
employees) is separate from and in addition to the performance- or asset-based
compensation received by Millennium from the Feeder Funds, which compensates
Millennium for services provided by its principal. Such expense is deducted prior to
calculation of the performance- or asset-based compensation received by Millennium from
the Feeder Funds.
Incentive Allocation
The performance-based compensation earned by Millennium from the Feeder
Funds, could, under some circumstances, create an incentive for Millennium to cause the
Fund to make investments that are riskier or more speculative than would be the case if
such compensation were not performance-based, particularly in any period after losses
have been suffered. In addition, because such compensation is calculated on a basis that
includes unrealized appreciation of the Fund's assets, the total compensation paid will be
different from (and may be greater than) the result that would have been obtained if such
compensation were based solely on realized gains. (See also "Certain Market and
Investment Risks—Valuation Risk.")
Transaction Fees Resulting From Uncoordinated Trading; Asymmetric
Performance
Investment decisions of the Fund are, in many cases, made by the Portfolio
Managers independently of each other so that, at any particular time, one Portfolio Manager
may be purchasing shares of an issuer whose shares are being sold at the same time by
another Portfolio Manager. Risk management decisions to take positions that offset the
aggregate positions of the various Portfolio Managers may lead to a similar result.
Transactions of this sort will inevitably result in the Fund's directly or indirectly incurring
certain transaction costs without accomplishing any net investment result for the Fund as a
whole. It is possible that, from time to time, various Portfolio Managers may be competing
with each other for the same positions in one or more markets.
Issuance of Debt or Preferred Securities and Similar Arrangements
The Fund may, without notice to or consent from existing investors, issue or
guarantee classes of capital, preferred equity, debt and convertible debt, or enter into
similar arrangements, including letters of credit, or list a class of shares or interests of a
Feeder Fund or an Other Account (as defined below) on an exchange, which may provide
the holders thereof or parties thereto terms that are different from, and in some cases,
preferential to, the terms applicable to the interests held by existing investors in the Fund.
Such terms could include, among others, a security interest over certain assets of the Fund
II-17
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004020
EFTA00239352
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
that would provide the holder thereof or party thereto the right to foreclose upon such assets
following the occurrence of certain trigger events such as insolvency, bankruptcy or a
suspension of withdrawals. If such securities are outstanding or such an arrangement exists
and a trigger event occurs, it is possible that holders thereof or parties thereto would be
entitled to receive assets of the Fund in satisfaction ofits obligations to them at a time when
investors in the Feeder Funds are not able to redeem their interests. In the event that a class
of shares or interests of a Feeder Fund or Other Account is listed on an exchange,
Millennium's regulatory burden may be increased and disclosures provided to investors in
the Feeder Funds may be required to be altered, among other potential changes.
IntellectualProperty
In some cases, a Portfolio Manager may use its own intellectual property in the
investment strategies utilized for the Fund. Millennium requires the Portfolio Manager to
make representations and warranties about its ownership of such intellectual property.
However, if a Portfolio Manager is later found to have infringed upon another party's
intellectual property, the Fund may be adversely affected, including by having to disgorge
profits generated by the use of such intellectual property.
Additionally, because such intellectual property is in some cases owned by the
Portfolio Manager, the Fund's ability to review it for compliance or other purposes may be
limited, and even if able to review it, the complexity of the intellectual property may make
it difficult to review and monitor. Furthermore, if a successful Portfolio Manager who
owned the intellectual property utilized in any strategy of the Fund were to leave the Fund,
the Fund would have no ability to continue to trade the particular strategy using the
intellectual property.
Formation ofAdditionalFunds
Millennium has organized and retains the right to organize additional investment
vehicles and to advise additional clients. As set forth below in the section entitled
"Related-Party Transactions and Other Accounts; Conflicts," the existence of such
additional vehicles or accounts presents a number of conflicts between them and the Fund.
Such conflicts may subject investors in the Feeder Funds to a risk of loss that would not
exist in the absence of such conflicts. Millennium will attempt to resolve such conflicts by
making allocations and other judgments on a basis that it believes to be fair and equitable
under the circumstances, but there can be no guarantee that such actions will reduce or
minimize the associated risk.
GovernmentalEntity Investors
Governmental entities, including, but not limited to, pension plans maintained by
governmental agencies and instrumentalities, may invest in the Feeder Funds. Such
investors may be subject to laws that affect the applicability or enforcement of certain terms
generally governing the Feeder Funds. Investment in a Feeder Fund by certain
governmental entities may subject the Feeder Fund and/or Millennium to increased
11-18
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004021
EFTA00239353
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
regulatory burdens and public disclosures about the Feeder Fund, its investors and its
activities.
Certain Market and Investment Risks
Investment and Trading Risks in General
Inherent in any investment in securities is the risk of losing the invested capital.
Millennium believes that the Fund's investment program and the Portfolio Managers'
research techniques moderate this risk through a careful selection of securities and
investment opportunities, as well as through the application of Millennium's ongoing
qualitative and quantitative risk assessment and management program. However, no
guarantee or representation is made that the Fund's investment program will be successful
or profitable, and investment results may vary substantially over time. The Fund's
investment program will utilize investment techniques such as option and derivative
transactions, limited diversification, margin transactions, short sales, and futures and
forward contracts, which can, in certain circumstances, maximize the adverse impact of
any loss or adverse event to which the Fund may be subject. (See "The Fund's Investment
Program and Description: Eligible Investments" and "The Fund's Investment Program and
Description: Investment Strategies.")
Millennium does not, in general, attempt to measure or hedge all market or other
risks inherent in the Fund's portfolio, and seeks to measure and hedge certain risks, if at
all, only partially. Specifically, Millennium may choose not, or may determine that it is
economically unattractive, to hedge certain risks, instead relying on diversification in an
attempt to mitigate the risks. Additionally, Millennium's direct trading activities may
increase the Fund's exposure to certain strategies or positions, which may exacerbate any
losses associated with such strategies or positions. (See "The Fund's Investment Program
Strategy—Firm Trading.") As discussed below, the Fund is not limited to any specific
policies or requirements for diversification or risk mitigation.
General Market and Economic Risk
Most trading strategies utilized by the Fund involve some, and occasionally a
significant degree of, market risk. The profitability of the Fund, and, consequently, each
Feeder Fund, depends, in significant part, upon Millennium's and the Portfolio Managers'
correctly assessing future price movements of securities and other financial instruments.
The Fund cannot assure any investor in a Feeder Fund that Millennium or the Portfolio
Managers will accurately predict these price movements. Additionally, unanticipated
illiquidity in a market could lead to substantial losses or mean that the Fund is unable to
close out certain positions when it wishes.
The success of the Fund's activities also will be affected by general economic and
market conditions, such as interest rates, availability of credit, inflation rates, economic
uncertainty, changes in laws (including laws relating to taxation of the Fund's investments)
or regulations (or their interpretation), trade barriers, currency exchange controls, and
national and international political circumstances (including wars, terrorist acts or security
II-I9
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004022
EFTA00239354
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
operations). These factors will affect the level and volatility of the prices of securities,
commodities and other financial instruments and the liquidity of the Fund's investments.
Illiquidity or significant changes in volatility could impair the Fund's profitability or result
in losses.
The Fund invests in the U.S. and a number of other countries. The economies of
non-U.S. countries may differ favorably or unfavorably from the U.S. economy in such
respects as growth of gross domestic product, rate of inflation, relative currency
appreciation or depreciation, asset reinvestment opportunities, resource self-sufficiency
and balance of payments position. Further, certain economies are heavily dependent upon
international trade and, accordingly, have been and may continue to be adversely affected
by trade bathers, exchange controls, managed adjustments in relative currency values and
other protectionist measures imposed or negotiated by the countries with which they trade.
The economies of certain non-U.S. countries may be based, predominantly, on only a few
industries and may be vulnerable to changes in trade conditions and may have higher levels
of debt or inflation than others.
PotentialInterest Rate Increases
The U.S. has for some time been experiencing historically low interest rate levels.
However, the continued recovery of the U.S. economy and recent and potential U.S.
government policy increase the likelihood that interest rates will continue to rise in the near
future. Any future interest rate increases may result in periods of volatility and would
cause the value of long fixed income positions held by the Fund to decrease, which could
result in substantial withdrawals or redemptions that, in turn, force the Fund to liquidate
such securities at disadvantageous prices negatively impacting the performance of the
Fund.
Extraordinary Market Conditions and Governmental Actions
Unpredictable or unstable market conditions may result in reduced opportunities to
find suitable investments to deploy capital or make it more difficult to exit and realize value
from the Fund's existing investments. An example of this sort of instability started in 2007,
when markets experienced significant losses arising largely because global credit spreads
widened materially, equity index levels declined and many funds liquidated assets. In
reaction to the extreme losses and volatility in commodities and securities markets and the
failure of credit markets to function normally, regulators in several countries undertook
extraordinary regulatory actions in 2008, including, but not limited to, short-selling
restrictions. Regulators and central banks in the U.S. and other countries continue to
consider and implement measures intended to stabilize and encourage growth in U.S. and
global financial markets. Millennium believes that the Fund may be materially and
adversely affected by similar or other events in the future. For example, markets may
experience extreme volatility and losses and the Fund may be unable to hedge, or
effectively hedge, certain material risks. In the long term, there may be significant new
regulations that could limit the Fund's activities and investment opportunities or change
the functioning of capital markets. Consequently, the Fund may not be capable of, or
successful at, preserving the value of its assets, generating positive investment returns or
II-20
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004023
EFTA00239355
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
effectively managing its risks. It is important to understand that the Fund can incur material
losses even if it reacts quickly to difficult market conditions and there can be no assurance
that the Fund will not suffer material adverse effects from broad and rapid changes in
market conditions and related regulatory actions.
Counierpariy Risks
The Fund may enter into many transactions, including derivative and other over-
the-counter transactions, with or through third parties in which the failure of the third party
to perform its obligations could have a material adverse effect on the Fund. The
counterparty risk is accentuated for contracts with longer maturities where events may
intervene to prevent settlement, or where the Fund has concentrated its transactions with a
single or small group of counterparties.
The assets of the Fund and its trading affiliates generally are held in accounts
maintained for them by their prime brokers or in accounts with other market participants,
including non-U.S. sub-custodians selected by the prime brokers. The accounts generally
are not segregated, bankruptcy-remote accounts titled in the owner's name and, therefore,
a failure of any broker or market participant is likely to have a greater adverse impact than
if the assets, or the accounts in which they are held, were registered in the name of the Fund
or its affiliate. In addition, because the Fund's and its affiliates' securities generally are
held in margin accounts, and the prime brokers have the ability to loan those securities to
other persons, the Fund's or an affiliate's ability to recover all of its assets in the context
of a bankruptcy or other failure of a prime broker may be further limited.
The Fund and its affiliates may transact with counterparties (including prime
brokers) located in various jurisdictions outside the United States. The local counterparties
are subject to various laws and regulations in various jurisdictions that are designed to
protect their customers in the event of their insolvency. However, the practical effect of
these laws and their application to the Fund's or its affiliates' assets are subject to
substantial limitations and uncertainties. Because of the large number of entities and
jurisdictions involved and the range of possible factual scenarios involving the insolvency
of a counterparty, it is impossible to generalize about the effect of their insolvency on the
Fund and its assets. Investors should assume that the insolvency of any significant
counterparty would result in a loss to the Fund, which could be material.
If any counterparties of the Fund's or its affiliates were to become insolvent or the
subject of liquidation proceedings, there exists the risk that the recovery of the Fund's or
its affiliates' securities and other assets from the prime broker or broker-dealer will be
delayed or be of a value less than the value of the securities or assets originally entrusted
to the prime broker or broker-dealer. Additionally, there is a risk that positions that are
reasonably hedged may become "unhedged" as a result of the effect of insolvency
proceedings.

EFTA00239356
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Investments in Emerging Markets
Investing in the securities of companies (and, from time to time, governments) in
emerging markets involves certain considerations not usually associated with investing in
securities of companies based in developed countries or those of governments of developed
countries, including political and economic considerations, such as greater risks of
expropriation, nationalization, confiscatory taxation or similar risks, limitations on the
removal of assets and general social, political and economic instability; the relatively small
size of the securities markets in such countries and the low volume of trading, resulting in
potential lack of liquidity and in price volatility; evolving and relatively unsophisticated
laws and regulations applicable to the securities and financial services industries;
fluctuations in the rate of exchange between currencies and costs associated with currency
conversion; and certain government policies that may restrict the Fund's investment
opportunities. In addition, accounting and financial reporting standards generally are not
as high as U.S. and other developed country standards and, consequently, less information
is typically available concerning companies located outside of developed countries than
for those located in the U.S. and other developed countries. As a result, the Fund may be
unable to structure its transactions to achieve the intended results or to mitigate risks
associated with such markets. It may also be difficult to enforce the Fund's rights in such
markets. For example, securities traded on non-U.S. exchanges and the non-U.S. persons
that trade these instruments are not subject to the jurisdiction of the SEC or the CFTC or
the securities and commodities laws and regulations of the U.S. Accordingly, the
protections accorded to the Fund under such laws and regulations may be unavailable. As
another example, the Fund may be exposed to the direct and indirect consequences of
potential or actual political, economic, social and diplomatic changes in China. The Fund
and any investments it may make in China may be subject to the following significant risks
among others: volatility in exchange rates and other economic imbalances resulting from
continued state involvement as China transitions to a market-driven economy;
expropriation; less stringent and less uniform financial reporting standards, practices and
disclosure requirements of publicly listed Chinese companies, lack of publicly available
information about Chinese companies and unreliability of official data; and increasing
geopolitical, governmental, economic and social instability in China.
Limited Diversification
In the normal course of making investments, by virtue of the Fund's multi-strategy,
multi-manager approach, the Fund is generally expected to have a diverse investment
portfolio. While Millennium monitors investment concentrations for risk management
purposes, it does not establish fixed limits and guidelines regarding diversification of
investments to be followed by the Fund as a whole. As a result, the Fund's portfolio could,
to a certain degree, become concentrated in a single issuer, industry, market or sector. The
concentration of risk may increase losses suffered by the Fund. It is also possible that the
Fund could become concentrated in any one strategy, and the investments of the strategy
may be more illiquid than the investments in another strategy. In addition, it is possible
that Millennium may select Portfolio Managers who make investments that are
concentrated in a limited number of types of financial instruments. This limited diversity
may lead to greater volatility than would otherwise be the case, and could expose the Fund
11-22
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004025
EFTA00239357
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
to losses disproportionate to market movements in general. Even when Millennium
attempts to control risks and diversify the portfolio, risks associated with different assets
may be correlated in unexpected ways, with the result that the Fund faces concentrated
exposure to certain risks. Although Millennium attempts to identify, monitor and manage
significant risks, these efforts do not take all risks into account and there can be no
assurance that these efforts will be effective. Any inadequacy or failure in Millennium's
risk management efforts could result in material losses for the Fund.
Borrowing andLending Activities andMargin Requirements
The Fund borrows, pledges, loans and otherwise finances assets on both a secured
and an unsecured basis and may issue notes or enter into credit agreements, indentures or
other financing arrangements in order to achieve efficient financing structures.
At any given time, the outstanding contractual obligations of the Fund are likely to
total well in excess ofits equity. There is no restriction on the ability of the Fund to borrow
or enter into such contractual obligations. The brokers and market counterparties with
which the Fund transacts will usually have a secured claim against the assets of the Fund
that are on deposit with the brokers or counterparties, senior to the claim of the Feeder
Funds (and their investors). Significant losses from investment activities or changes in
market conditions that affect the assets could result in the brokers' or counterparties'
foreclosing on the assets securing the obligations. The Fund may maintain balances with
certain counterparties in excess of margin requirements or other obligations to such
counterparties (i.e., "excess collateral"). In the event of the insolvency of the financing
provider under such an arrangement, the Fund's claim for the value of such excess
collateral would be unsecured.
While the Fund seeks to enter into "lockup" agreements with many of its key equity
prime brokerage counterparties limiting the ability of those counterparties to change
financing or margin terms, recall loans or refuse to execute trades for a period of time after
notice is given absent an event of default or other termination event under the agreements,
creditors that provide financing to the Fund may, in certain circumstances, accelerate a loan
and require repayment in full upon the occurrence of certain events, including: (i) changes
in key management; (ii) suspension of redemptions; (iii) violations of minimum capital
levels; (iv) the imposition of regulatory sanctions on the Fund or its key personnel that
would materially and adversely affect the Fund's ability to conduct its business or perform
under the agreements; or (v) certain market conditions, including in the event that such
counterparty is no longer able to secure financing. In addition, market conditions may
make it difficult to obtain committed financing for extended periods of time or at all,
particularly when assets securing the financing are less liquid and such agreements may
not be available or economically attractive with respect to certain asset classes. In many
cases, when such lockup agreements are not in place, the banks and dealers that provide
financing to the Fund may apply discretionary margin, "haircut" financing and security and
collateral valuation policies. Changes by banks and dealers in such policies, or the
imposition of other credit limitations or restrictions, including those due to market
circumstances or governmental, regulatory or judicial action, may result in large margin
calls, requirements to post additional collateral, loss of financing, forced liquidation of
II-23
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004026
EFTA00239358
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
assets , termination of swap or repurchase agreements or cross defaults to agreements with
the same or other counterparties. Any such adverse effects may be exacerbated in the event
that such limitations or restrictions are imposed suddenly and/or by multiple market
participants at or about the same time. The imposition of any such limitations or
restrictions could compel the Fund to liquidate all or part ofits portfolio at disadvantageous
prices.
Assets loaned by the Fund to third parties or collateral used to finance borrowing
may not be required to be kept segregated by the third parties, and may be subject to the
claims of other creditors of the third parties. Third parties that enter into financing
transactions with the Fund may default on their obligations to return the Fund's assets or
pay amounts owed to the Fund. Additionally, the Fund may experience a delay in the
recovery of or loss of rights in the collateral, if any.
Liquidity; Availability of Credit
The Fund's investment strategies depend on the availability of credit in order to
permit the financing of its portfolio. The Fund's liquidity could be impaired by an inability
to access debt markets, an inability to sell assets or unforeseen outflows of cash or
collateral. Any or all of these situations could arise due to circumstances that the Fund
may be unable to control, such as a general market disruption or an operational problem
that affects third parties. A lack of liquidity has historically been the cause of substantial
losses in the securities industry. Liquidity risk will be increased if the Fund is required to
liquidate positions to meet margin requirements, margin calls or other funding
requirements. If there are other market participants seeking to dispose of similar financial
instruments at the same time, the Fund may be unable to sell the financial instruments or
prevent losses relating to the financial instruments. In times of market stress, the
liquidation of securities that are generally regarded as highly liquid nonetheless may result
in the Fund incurring significant losses. Furthermore, if the Fund incurs substantial trading
losses, the need for liquidity could rise sharply while its access to liquidity could be
impaired. The ability of counterparties to take actions following declines in investment
values which result in the forced liquidation of highly leveraged positions in declining
markets, including as a result of the Fund's having insufficient liquidity to meet margin
calls, could subject it to substantial losses. Millennium may fail to adequately predict the
liquidity that the Fund requires to address counterparty requirements relating to falling
values of investments being financed by the counterparties, which could result not only in
losses related to the investments, but also in losses related to the need to liquidate unrelated
investments in order to meet the Fund's obligations. The Fund's losses may be magnified
in the event that significant capital is invested in highly leveraged investments or
investment strategies. Such losses would result in a decline in assets, may lead to requests
from investors in the Feeder Funds to redeem or withdraw remaining assets, and may
damage the Fund's reputation.
Cost andAvailability of Financing
The Fund obtains significant financing from counterparties that are regulated
entities subject to regulatory capital requirements, which require the counterparty to
II-24
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004027
EFTA00239359
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
maintain certain core capital and risk-based capital ratios and limit the type of assets that
qualify as capital. In addition to the capital requirements, counterparties (or an applicable
affiliate from which a counterparty obtains internal funding) that are depository institutions
are required to comply with (i) reserve requirements that require an institution to maintain
cash reserves at least equal to a certain percentage of the total value of all its transactional
accounts and non-personal time deposits, and (ii) liquidity requirements that require an
institution to maintain cash and other liquid assets at least equal to a certain percentage of
the total value of its net withdrawable deposit accounts and borrowings payable in one year
or less. These regulatory capital, reserve, and liquidity requirements have become more
stringent with the implementation of the standards set forth in the Basel Committee's 2010
capital and liquidity reform package known as Basel III. The implementation of Basel III
may cause the cost of financing obtained by the Fund from such counterparties to become
more expensive or, in some cases, unavailable. Additionally, the margin and collateral
requirements of the Fund with respect to such financing may also increase. An increase in
financing costs may cause certain of the Fund's trading strategies to become less profitable
or unprofitable. Additionally, an increase in the margin and collateral requirements with
respect to financing may adversely affect the Fund in other ways.
Financial Transaction 'hires ("FITs )
A number of European countries have adopted or proposed FTTs covering a wide
variety of financial transactions, including transactions in equity and debt securities and
derivatives and certain "high frequency" trading activity. The European Commission has
proposed a pan-European FTT in at least 11 Member States that based on current proposals
would levy the tax at a minimum level of 0.1% of the value of transactions in debt or equity
securities and 0.01% of the value of derivative transactions. There have also been
discussions of proposing an FIT in the U.S. In the future, additional countries may adopt
FTTs and countries that have adopted FTTs may seek to expand the scope of transactions
that are subject to FTTs. There are a number of uncertainties with respect to the calculation,
remittance and enforcement of such Ms. The FTTs that have been adopted increase the
cost of trading affected financial instruments and in some instances contain measures
designed to preclude avoidance of the tax by trading, for example, in derivative
instruments. In some instances, such FTTs and administrative costs associated with them
would make it prohibitive for the Fund to engage in trading activity subject to the tax, and
there may be no alternative means of trading in equivalent instruments. Any such measures
are likely to increase the costs of the Fund's business, reduce the trading opportunities open
to the Fund, or both, and their effect could be material.
Position Limits
"Position limits" imposed by various regulators or self-regulatory organizations
and exchanges may also limit the Fund's ability to effect desired trades. Position limits are
the maximum amounts of gross, net long or net short positions that any one person or entity
may own or control in a particular financial instrument. All positions owned or controlled
by the same person or entity, even if in different accounts, may be aggregated for purposes
of determining whether the applicable position limits have been exceeded. Thus, even if
the Fund does not intend to exceed applicable position limits, it is possible that the Fund
II-25
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004028
EFTA00239360
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
and Other Accounts may be aggregated. To the extent that the Fund's position limits were
aggregated with an affiliate's position limits, the effect on the Fund and resulting restriction
on its investment activities may be significant. If at any time, positions managed by
Millennium were to exceed applicable position limits, Millennium would be required to
liquidate positions, which might include positions of the Fund, to the extent necessary to
come within those limits. Further, to avoid exceeding the position limits, the Fund might
have to forego or modify certain of its contemplated trades.
Exposure toMaterial Non-Public Information.
From time to time, Portfolio Managers or other personnel receive material non-
public information related to the investments of the Fund or Other Accounts with respect
to an issuer of publicly traded securities. In such circumstances, the Fund may be
prohibited by law, policy or contract, including any "restricted list" Millennium maintains,
for a period of time from (i) unwinding a position in such issuer, (ii) establishing an initial
position or taking any greater position in such issuer and/or (iii) pursuing other investment
opportunities related to such issuer.
Indebtedness
The Fund customarily borrows funds on a secured basis. The Fund may also
borrow through the issuance of notes. In the event that funds available to the Fund were
insufficient to meet principal or interest obligations on indebtedness (by reason of
acceleration of the indebtedness or otherwise), then funds would not be available to the
Feeder Funds for equity redemptions or withdrawals or for other purposes. Additionally,
the terms of any indebtedness or related agreements could include covenants restricting the
ability of the Fund to take actions, or waive conditions, that might otherwise have been
taken for the benefit of the Feeder Funds and ultimately their investors. One such covenant
might include a limitation on the Fund's ability to pay equity distributions, if, for example,
the Fund's net asset value were to drop below a specified threshold as a result of the
payment. There is no limitation on the right or ability of the Fund to enter into any such
borrowing arrangements or related agreements.
Valuation Risk
The Administrator issues the Fund's net asset value on a monthly basis after
performing certain checks on valuation and independent verification and reconciliation of
the Fund's assets and liabilities, as well as reviewing and recording of the Fund's expenses.
Valuations of publicly traded security positions are compared to market data independently
obtained from third party market data providers. Valuations of some other securities
positions are compared to information received from third parties, including brokers and
independent valuation service providers. Securities positions and cash balances are
reconciled with the Fund's records based upon confirmations or statements that the
Administrator independently receives from prime brokers and other financial institutions
which hold assets of the Fund. The procedures performed do not constitute an audit in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. (although the
financial statements of the Master Partnership are audited in accordance with such
II-26
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004029
EFTA00239361
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
standards by the Master Partnership's independent auditors on an annual basis). The
verification and review work conducted by the Administrator does not constitute a 100%
verification of the valuation work of Millennium.
The initial processes for determining the fair value of the Fund's positions (which
are generally subject to verification by the Administrator) are administered by
Millennium's Valuation Committee, which is comprised of persons independent from
specific portfolio management decisions. The fair value of the Master Partnership's
positions is determined using a number of methodologies described in Millennium's
valuation policies and procedures as amended or revised from time to time, which may, in
some cases, involve the exercise of a significant degree of judgment by Millennium. The
methodologies Millennium's Valuation Committee uses in valuing individual investments
are based on a variety of estimates and assumptions specific to the particular investment,
and actual results related to the investment therefore may vary materially as a result of the
inaccuracy of the assumptions or estimates. In addition, the Fund may at times hold illiquid
investments in industries or sectors that are unstable, in distress or undergoing some
uncertainty, and such investments are subject to rapid changes in value. The values of
investments reflected in the net asset value of the Fund (which is used to calculate
performance-based compensation as well as prices paid or payable in connection with
withdrawals or redemptions and new investments) may not always reflect the prices that
would actually be obtained by Millennium on behalf of the Fund if the investments were
immediately liquidated.
The Fund's audited financial statements generally are prepared in accordance with
GAAP. Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures, defines and establishes a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP
and expands financial statement disclosure requirements relating to fair value
measurements. Under rare circumstances, certain of the Fund's assets or liabilities may be
assigned a value under Millennium's valuation policies and procedures that diverges from
their valuation in accordance with GAAP.
Investments in Third-Party Investment Funds
The Fund has invested and may continue to invest a portion of its assets in
investment funds managed by third parties. The Fund generally will have less ability to (i)
monitor the investments, (ii) regularly obtain full, current information and (iii) exercise
control rights over the investments, than it has with respect to other allocations of capital
of the Fund. In addition, the Fund may not be able to withdraw assets from third-party
funds at times when it might otherwise wish to do so. With respect to any such assets, the
Fund generally relies on the valuations provided by the third-party funds and generally will
not have sufficient information to be able to confirm or review the accuracy of the
valuations. In the event that the Fund does not receive a valuation from a third-party fund,
or determines, in its sole discretion, that a valuation is inaccurate or incomplete, the Fund
may, in its sole discretion, determine the fair value of its interests in the third-party fund
independently of the valuations provided by the third-party fund based on information
available to, and factors deemed relevant by, the Fund at the time.
II-27
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004030
EFTA00239362
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Trade ExecutionRisk
Many of the investment techniques used by the Portfolio Managers require the rapid
and efficient execution of transactions, or the ability of the Portfolio Managers to
accumulate or liquidate large positions. Inefficient execution can impair realization of the
market opportunities sought with the techniques.
Trade Error Risk
Occasionally, transactions may be executed erroneously on terms other than those
intended by the Fund or a Portfolio Manager. For example, a transaction may be executed
in the wrong asset, for the wrong quantity or price, to buy when the Fund or a Portfolio
Manager meant to sell, to sell when the Fund or a Portfolio Manager meant to buy, or by
reason of a programming error in a trading program. Programming errors could also lead
to the submission of repetitive orders or orders otherwise made in excess of any intention,
or could cause an algorithm-driven program to bypass risk management or other controls.
Except to the extent otherwise required by law, the Fund will bear the losses or costs of
any such errors, unless Millennium determines that the error occurred due to fraud, gross
negligence or reckless or intentional misconduct by Millennium (or, in certain
circumstances, its agents) or Millennium determines that it is appropriate to charge a
Portfolio Manager for the costs and expenses of the error. Given the potentially large
volume of transactions executed on behalf of the Fund, investors should expect that trade
errors will occur from time to time.
Risks of Certain Trading Strategies, Techniques and Instruments
Investment Strategies of the Portfolio Managers
Portfolio Managers, among other things, will seek to use specialized investment
strategies, follow allocation methodologies, apply investment models or assumptions, and
enter into hedging and other strategies intended to affect their performance and risk levels.
The Fund cannot guarantee that any Portfolio Manager will have success in achieving any
goal related to those practices.
Relative Value andFundamental Value Strategies
Certain Portfolio Managers may engage in both relative-value/arbitrage and
fundamental-value strategies with directional exposures. Certain Portfolio Managers will
use elements of both approaches in their strategies. Fundamental-value strategies
frequently involve judgments about the future direction of financial instrument prices,
markets and market factors. If Portfolio Managers make incorrect judgments, the Fund
could fail to earn profits or could sustain significant losses. Arbitrage and relative-value
strategies seek to profit from mispricings and inefficiencies in the capital markets,
frequently by entering into simultaneous long and short positions. Pure arbitrage
opportunities are rare. Relative-value/arbitrage Portfolio Managers may hold directional
exposures to select financial instrument prices, markets, and market factors. Generally, it
is not possible to hedge all risks and exposures in relative-value/arbitrage strategies.
Arbitrage and relative-value strategies frequently entail the use of significant leverage and
II-28
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004031
EFTA00239363
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
derivative instruments, which may be volatile and illiquid. Portfolio Managers may be
incorrect about perceived mispricings among financial instruments, relative mispricings
could be sustained for an extended period or Portfolio Managers may be unsuccessful in
structuring and executing trades to profit from perceived mispricings. Financial
instruments may move in unexpected patterns. Even if financial instruments are mispriced
relative to each other based on historical or other relationships, they may fail to converge
in price for various reasons. The historical relationships between the prices of different
securities and financial instruments may change suddenly and unexpectedly for various
reasons. Also, strategies that are largely uncorrelated under normal market conditions may
become more correlated at times of market stress. As a result, relative value/arbitrage
strategies may be subject to the same risk of loss as fundamental or directional strategies.
Model-based Strategies
Certain of the Fund's investment strategies are based on models of the behavior of
financial instruments, market conditions or certain market participants and use formulas or
algorithms to make trading decisions by reviewing a variety of inputs, comparing the
information against historical and current data, and predicting price movements. These
models are developed by Portfolio Managers or third parties. Models generally must be
updated in order to remain effective. There can be no assurance that Portfolio Managers
will be able to continue to develop, update or acquire effective models and any changes
that are made in an attempt to respond to perceived changes in market conditions may be
unsuccessful. Additionally, virtually all computer programs contain some errors or "bugs"
and it is impractical to eliminate 100% of the bugs in the programming process (although
programs generally are tested before they are put into use, in an attempt to eliminate errors
that would be likely to have significant consequences). As a result, while Millennium
expects that its and the Portfolio Managers' personnel will endeavor to minimize the effect
of programming errors, Millennium cannot provide any assurance that all programs will in
all instances operate in the intended manner, and there may be remaining programming
errors which could have substantial adverse consequences.
Statistical Arbitrage Strategies
The success of some of the Fund's statistical arbitrage or quantitative strategies
depends on the market values of various financial instruments moving towards their
theoretical values (or relative values) as predicted by statistical modeling. In the event of
market disruptions generally or specific events that cause deviations from historical
relationships between certain financial instruments and other instruments or data points
used to predict value, significant losses could be incurred.
Regulatory Risks Applicable to Algorithmic Trading Strategies
A recent increase in governmental and regulatory scrutiny has focused on
investment funds that operate automated or computer-based trading. Such scrutiny has led
and can in the future lead to costly investigations, litigation, legislative testimony, loss of
reputation, fines and settlements, and could also result in additional severe consequences.
The SEC approved a two-year pilot program that began in May 2016 and will allow equity
11-29
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004032
EFTA00239364
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
securities of certain, small-cap companies with a market capitalization of $3 billion or less,
among other factors, to trade in five-cent increments. This may have the effect of
increasing the cost of trading by market participants, including the Fund. The SEC has
considered the imposition ofadditional mechanisms to eliminate "quote stuffing," whereby
large numbers of stock orders are placed and canceled almost immediately, such as by
setting minimum amounts of time for which stock quotes must remain active. The
implementation ofnew trading "circuit breakers" and additional trading limitations are also
being considered by the SEC. These mechanisms would restrict programmatic trading in
the event that a market moved up or down by more than a predetermined number of points
on any trading day. The CFTC proposed Regulation Automated Trading ("Regulation
AT') in November 2015, which would impose potentially burdensome risk and
compliance controls on any person engaged in "algorithmic trading" on any U.S.
designated contract market, including among other things, certain pre-trade risk controls,
and policies addressing controls around model development, testing and monitoring and
algorithmic-focused training. The MiFID II Proposals in the European Union also
introduce rules on algorithmic trading in financial instruments (as described below under
"The EU Regulation on Markets in Financial Instruments"). In the event of their
implementation, compliance with any one or more of the abovementioned proposed
regulations may negatively impact the ability of certain Portfolio Managers to effect their
trading strategies, and may in turn have a negative effect on the Fund's investments.
Regulation of algorithmic trading is also being considered by other global securities
regulators.
Quantitative Analysis
Certain Portfolio Managers as well as the Fund's risk management systems rely
heavily on quantitative models and information and data that is supplied or acquired rather
than developed by trade-by-trade analysis and discretion. Models are used to construct sets
of transactions and investments, to value investments or potential investments for trading
purposes, to provide risk management insights, and to assist in hedging the Fund's
investments. When models and data prove to be incorrect, misleading or incomplete, any
decisions made in reliance thereon expose the Fund to potential risks. For example, by
relying on models and data, a Portfolio Manager may be induced to buy certain investments
at prices that are too high, to sell certain other investments at prices that are too low, or to
miss favorable opportunities altogether. Similarly, any hedging based on faulty models
and data may prove to be unsuccessful. A significant number of the models are predictive
in nature. The use of predictive models has inherent risks. For example, such models may
incorrectly forecast future behavior, leading to potential losses on a cash flow and/or a
mark-to-market basis. In addition, in unforeseen or certain low-probability scenarios (often
involving a market disruption of some kind), such models may produce unexpected results,
which can result in losses for the Fund. Furthermore, because predictive models are usually
constructed based on historical data supplied or acquired, the success of relying on such
models may depend heavily on the accuracy and reliability of the supplied historical data.
While such data regarding historical market conditions, pricing and other information is
believed to be accurate, such data will not necessarily be independently verified in each
instance. All models rely on correct market data inputs. If incorrect market data is entered
into even a well-founded model, the resulting valuations will be incorrect. In addition,
II-30
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004033
EFTA00239365
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
given that the systems can execute trades autonomously, undesired results may only be
detected after the fact, perhaps after a significant number of transactions have occurred.
Data Feed Failure
Certain Portfolio Managers' models utilize data feeds from a number of sources. If
such data feeds become corrupted, compromised or discontinued, or become undeliverable
or inaccessible in a timely manner, the models may not be properly formulated. The failure
to receive the data feeds or receive the data feeds in a timely manner may leave a Portfolio
Manager unable to trade, and may expose the Fund to risk of loss or loss of opportunities,
especially if the loss of the data feed coincides with turbulent market conditions. If the
data feeds are discontinued, compromised in any material respect or not deliverable or
accessible in a timely manner, it may result in a material loss to the Fund.
Use of Simulations
Certain Portfolio Managers' investment processes will involve the construction of
investment strategies based on a combination of trading signals and the simulated back-
testing of such trading signals and investment strategies against historical market
conditions, pricing and other information over chosen historical time periods. Similarly,
certain Portfolio Managers may use simulations as part of the process of determining how
to allocate investment strategies among the Fund and Other Accounts. Simulations
generated by a Portfolio Manager for the purpose of constructing the Fund's portfolio and
allocating investment strategies between the Fund and Other Accounts involve numerous
methodologies and assumptions, certain of which are highly subjective in nature. There
can be no guarantee that the predictive results of any simulation will be accurate. For
example, a simulation may not reflect the impact that material economic and market
conditions may have had on the Portfolio Manager's decision making if the simulation had
been reflective of actual trading by the Portfolio Manager. Methodologies and assumptions
used to generate simulations are subjective in nature and modifications in the
methodologies used and assumptions made could materially impact the results of a
simulation and associated investment activity.
Obsolescence Risk
The Fund is unlikely to be successful in strategies relying on models unless the
assumptions underlying the models utilized by Portfolio Managers prove to be realistic
more often than not, and either remain realistic and relevant in the future or are adjusted to
account for changes in the overall market environment. If such assumptions are inaccurate
or become inaccurate and are not adjusted, it is less likely that profitable trading signals
will be generated. If and to the extent that the models do not reflect certain relevant factors,
and the Portfolio Manager does not successfully address such omission through its testing
and evaluation and modify the models accordingly, significant losses may result. Portfolio
Managers may, and often do, continue to test, evaluate and add new models, as a result of
which the existing models may be modified from time to time. There can be no assurance
11-31
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004034
EFTA00239366
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
that any modifications will achieve their intended objective or as to the effects (positive or
negative) of any modification on a particular strategy's or the Fund's performance.
Crowding/Convergence
There is significant competition among quantitatively focused managers and the
ability of applicable Portfolio Managers to deliver returns that have a low correlation with
global aggregate equity markets, and to achieve their intended results generally, may by
dependent on their ability to employ models that are simultaneously profitable and
differentiated from those employed by other similar managers. To the extent that such
Portfolio Managers are not able to develop sufficiently differentiated models, and maintain
the differentiating factors, such Portfolio Managers' intended investment objective may
not be met, irrespective of whether the models are profitable in an absolute sense. In
addition, to the extent that such Portfolio Managers' models come to resemble those
employed by other managers, the risk that a market disruption that negatively affects
predictive models will adversely affect the Fund is increased, as such a disruption could
accelerate reductions in liquidity or rapid repricing due to simultaneous trading across a
number of Rinds in the marketplace.
UnauthorizedAccess Risk
The ability of certain Portfolio Managers to achieve their investment goals for the
Fund is dependent in large part on their and the Fund's ability to develop and protect such
models and proprietary research. The models and proprietary research and the models and
data are largely protected by us through the use of policies, procedures, agreements,
surveillance and other measures designed to create and enforce confidentiality, non-
disclosure and similar safeguards. There can be no assurance, however, that such
safeguards will be successful, and unauthorized access to such information could lead to
opportunities for third parties to reverse-engineer such Portfolio Managers' models and
thereby impair the performance of the Fund.
TrendFollowing
Certain trading decisions made by certain Portfolio Managers may be based on
trend following. Any factor that would lessen the prospect of major trends occurring in the
future (such as changes in regulation of financial markets) may reduce the prospect that a
particular trading method or strategy will be profitable in the future. In the past, there have
been periods without discernible trends and such periods will likely continue to occur in
the future. Moreover, any factor that would make it more difficult to execute trades at
desired prices in accordance with the signals of the trading method or strategy (such as a
significant lessening of liquidity in a particular market) would also be detrimental to
profitability. Further, many managers' trading methods utilize similar analyses in making
II-32
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004035
EFTA00239367
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
trading decisions. Therefore, bunching of buy and sell orders can occur, which makes it
more difficult for a position to be taken or liquidated.
Market Data
Millennium, like many financial institutions, uses a wide variety and large quantity
of market data procured from a host of different suppliers, including multiple exchanges.
Notwithstanding certain Portfolio Managers' reliance on large quantities of market data,
sources ofmarket data may decline over time, which could adversely impact the investment
program of the Fund. In addition, market data contract pricing and terms are complex and
subject to change without prior notice in many cases; increases in market data contract
pricing could make the acquisition of certain data significantly more expensive, which
would negatively impact the Fund's net performance by reducing returns or making it cost-
prohibitive to acquire or retain certain data sources.
Risks Inherent in Computer-Driven and Technological Systems
Millennium and its Portfolio Managers rely extensively on a wide range of
technological systems, including computer hardware and software systems and
telecommunications systems, in all phases of daily operations, including research,
valuation, trade identification and construction, trade execution, clearing, risk
management, back office functions and reporting. Such systems are subject to a number
of inherent and unpredictable risks. For example, there may be materially adverse
undiscovered errors in software programs; costs of procurement of such technology may
increase; claims related to intellectual property infringement may be brought against users
of technology, including the Fund, software and/or hardware may malfunction and/or
degrade; electronic and telecommunications delivery may fail; security breaches may lead
to unauthorized trades or stolen intellectual property; services provided by third-party
vendors to support the intellectual property systems may be interrupted; and computer-
driven trading errors may occur.
Merger Arbitrage and Other Event-Driven Strategies
Merger arbitrage and other event-driven, including index rebalancing, investment
strategies generally incur significant losses when proposed transactions are not
consummated, issuer modifications or reweighting applied to indices do not occur as
anticipated or other expected events do not occur. The consummation of mergers, tender
offers, exchange offers and other significant corporate events can be prevented or delayed
by a variety of factors, including: (i) regulatory intervention; (ii) efforts by a target
company to pursue a defensive strategy; (iii) the failure to obtain necessary shareholder
approvals; (iv) adverse company, market or business conditions resulting in a material
change or termination of the pending transaction; (v) additional requirements imposed by
law; and (vi) the inability to obtain adequate financing. Any such events could lead to
losses. Index rebalancing strategies rely on directional long and short positions based on
anticipated modifications and reweighting of issuers making up a certain index or indices.
These strategies may result in increased concentration risk with respect to any issuer that
is part of such an index. In addition, given that other market place participants may pursue
II-33
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004036
EFTA00239368
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
an index rebalancing strategy and anticipate similar directional trades (on a long and/or
short basis) at or around the same time, index rebalancing strategies may lead to potential
for losses resulting from a scarcity of sourcing for trades pertaining to an issuer.
Convertible Arbitrage Strategies
Convertible arbitrage strategists identify convertible bonds, convertible preferred
stocks or warrants that appear mispriced or undervalued, yet offer a favorable rate ofreturn.
By establishing a long position in a convertible security (usually preferred stock or bonds)
and an offsetting (complete or partial) short position in the underlying security into which
the convertible security is convertible (usually common stock of the issuer), a Portfolio
Manager invests with the expectation of capturing price or yield differences or to seek to
profit from cash flow (e.g., coupon income and stock borrowed rebate). There can be no
assurance that a Portfolio Manager will be able to identify profitable convertible arbitrage
opportunities or that changes in price differentials will not cause losses. Generally, changes
in interest rates can influence the investment value of a convertible security. The credit
standing of the issuer, the value of the underlying stock and other factors may also have an
effect on the convertible security's investment value. A convertible security may be
subject to redemption at the option of the issuer at a price established in the convertible
security's governing instrument. If a convertible security held by a Portfolio Manager is
called for redemption, the Portfolio Manager will be required to permit the issuer to redeem
the security, convert it into the underlying common stock or sell it to a third party. Any of
these actions could result in losses to the Fund or otherwise have an adverse effect on the
Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective.
Option-Volatility Trading
Option-volatility trading is a derivatives-based strategy that seeks to profit from
market turbulence (or the lack thereof), as reflected in movements in option prices that
result from market fluctuations. The goal of a Portfolio Manager employing this strategy
is to buy inexpensively priced (i.e., cheap implied volatility) options whose underlying
instruments are expected to be more volatile, and sell expensively priced (i.e., rich implied
volatility) options whose underlying instruments are expected to be less volatile. The
strategy may be implemented through options on equities and equity indices, or in other
asset classes such as FX and fixed income. Such option combinations include spreads
(buying an option to buy or sell an asset while simultaneously selling an option to buy or
sell the same asset with a different expiration date or strike price) or straddles (option
combinations that will profit from movement in the level of the value of an asset outside
of certain bands, or the lack of such movement, without regard to whether the movement
is upward or downward). Option-volatility trading may also involve trades in which futures
(or other derivatives) are used to create a position that synthetically resembles an option or
option combination, or in which options are purchased or sold versus an offsetting position
in the underlying market (such as a basket of stocks). The decision process is dependent
on fundamental and technical analysis of the underlying instruments and computer models
are often used to enhance the execution of various hedges. Option-volatility trading is a
complex financial strategy and requires significant resources and capabilities. The pricing
of options, VIX futures, volatility swaps, variance swaps and other related products
II-34
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004037
EFTA00239369
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
(together, "volatility derivatives") involves a wide variety of factors—including prices of
the underlying assets, implied volatility surfaces, interest rate yield curves, and time to
expiry. Not only will different traders differ among themselves concerning the correct
theoretical value for a given volatility derivative, but actual and theoretical values may
diverge for extended periods of time. There can be no assurance Portfolio Managers will
correctly identify volatility derivative positions that are mispriced relative to the underlying
or relative to another volatility derivative or that the market will, in fact, regress to
theoretical values. In addition, when trading options on equity indices, the Fund could
suffer losses from increased diversification in the index even when individual equities are
more volatile than expected, resulting in less than expected movement in the index. As a
consequence of the foregoing factors, substantial losses could be incurred by the Fund.
Short Positions
Portfolio Managers routinely take short positions in a wide range of assets, typically
as part of a hedged strategy intended to reduce the risk of investing. A short sale of an
asset exposes the seller to the risk of an increase in the market price of that asset with a
theoretically unlimited risk of loss. Purchasing assets to close out a short position can itself
cause their market price to rise further, increasing losses on the short position.
Furthermore, Portfolio Managers may prematurely be forced to close out a short position
if a lender demands the return of the asset borrowed (and sold short) and an alternative
source of borrowing that asset is not available. Certain market regulators have imposed
restrictions (including required reporting) or bans on the ability of market participants to
take short positions and the frequency with which such restrictions are imposed has
increased in recent years. Among other things, such restrictions make hedging practices
more difficult and expose the Fund to greater risk.
Portfolio Turnover
Portfolio Managers frequently invest on the basis of short-term market
considerations. The turnover rate of the Portfolio Managers' positions may therefore be
significant, potentially involving substantial brokerage commissions and fees.
Loan Participations
The Fund or certain of its affiliates may buy and sell loan participations (i.e.,
interests in a loan, generally governed by a credit agreement between the original lending
syndicate and the borrower) in the secondary market. These investments involve certain
risks in addition to those associated with direct loans. A loan participant has no direct
contractual relationship with the borrower of the underlying loan. As a result, the
participant generally is dependent on the lender that originated the loan to enforce its rights
and obligations under the credit agreement in the event of a default, and may not have the
right to object to amendments to or modifications of the terms of the credit agreement in
which it participates. A participant in a syndicated loan generally does not have voting
rights, which are retained by the lender that originated the loan. In addition, a loan
participant may be subject to the credit risk of the lender from which the participation is
purchased as well as that of the borrower, since a loan participant is dependent upon the
11-35
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004038
EFTA00239370
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
lender or lenders from which the participation is purchased to furnish to the participant its
share of payments of principal and interest received on the underlying loan. Participations
in which the Fund invests generally are not secured obligations of the lender or lenders
from which they are acquired.
DistressedandHigh-Yield Securities
Certain Portfolio Managers may invest in securities issued by, or other indebtedness
of, companies in weak and/or deteriorating financial condition, experiencing poor
operating results, needing substantial capital investment, having negative net worth, facing
special competitive or product obsolescence problems or involved in bankruptcy or
reorganization proceedings. Investments of this type are generally not exchange-traded
and, as a result, these instruments trade in the over-the-counter marketplace, which is less
transparent than the exchange-traded marketplace, and further, may involve substantial
financial and business risks, which are often heightened by an inability to obtain reliable
information about the issuers. The investments can result in significant or even total losses.
In addition, the markets for distressed and high-yield securities are frequently illiquid.
The market prices of distressed and high-yield assets are subject to abrupt and
erratic market movements and above-average price volatility, and the spreads between the
bid and asked prices of such assets may be greater than those prevailing in other markets.
It may take a number of years before the market price of the assets reflects their perceived
intrinsic value, if they ever do. In liquidation (both in and out of bankruptcy) and other
forms of corporate reorganization, there exists the risk that the reorganization either will
be unsuccessful (for example, due to failure to obtain requisite approvals), will be delayed
(for example, until various liabilities, actual or contingent, have been satisfied), or will
result in a distribution of cash or a new asset the value of which will be less than the
carrying value of the asset in respect of which the distribution was made. Distressed assets
also may be adversely affected by laws relating to, among other things, fraudulent transfers
and other voidable transfers or payments and lender liability, as well as bankruptcy and
other judicial courts' power to disallow, reduce, subordinate or disenfranchise particular
claims.
High-yield instruments face ongoing uncertainties and exposure to adverse
business, financial or economic conditions which could lead to the issuer's inability to meet
timely interest and principal payments. The market values of certain of these lower-rated
and unrated debt instruments tend to reflect individual corporate developments to a greater
extent than do higher-rated instruments which react primarily to fluctuations in the general
level ofinterest rates, and tend to be more sensitive to economic conditions than are higher-
rated instruments. Companies that issue such instruments are often highly leveraged and
may not have available to them more traditional methods of financing. It is possible that a
major economic recession could disrupt severely the market for such instruments and may
have an adverse impact on the value of such instruments. In addition, it is possible that
any such economic downturn could adversely affect the ability of the issuers of such
instruments to repay principal and pay interest thereon and increase the incidence ofdefault
of such instruments.

CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004039
EFTA00239371
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Differential Cash Flows onRelatedPositions
Certain of the Fund's strategies may involve taking positions that are subject to
unilateral margin in favor of the counterparty. These positions may be related to or hedged
with other positions margined on a bilateral mark-to-market basis, which may require the
Fund to supply margin on a position while a counterparty would not be required to supply
margin on the related position. Additionally, there may be circumstances where the
financing costs ofrelated positions may become imbalanced (e.g., where the financing rates
of one of the positions is subject to more frequent revision). Due to the cash flow
imbalances between the assets, in certain market scenarios, the Fund may be forced to close
out the positions, perhaps at disadvantageous prices, or may bear additional expenses in
keeping positions open.
StructuredInvestment Products
Certain Portfolio Managers may invest in, or otherwise participate in a variety of
different structured investment products; for example, total return swaps, participating
notes, options, credit default swaps and collateralized debt obligations. These structured
products involve not only the risks of the underlying "reference asset," but also other risks
including, without limitation, acceleration of the financing embedded in the structure,
counterparty credit risk, and/or restrictions imposed on the management and nature of the
permissible reference assets and costs of creating the structured products.
Interest-Rate andForeign Exchange-Rate Risks
The prices of assets held by the Fund may be sensitive to interest-rate and foreign
exchange-rate fluctuations; such fluctuations could cause the U.S. dollar value of long and
short positions to move in unanticipated directions. To the extent that interest-rate and
foreign exchange-rate assumptions underpin the hedging of a particular position,
fluctuations in rates could invalidate those underlying assumptions and expose the Fund to
losses. The Fund is not obligated to hedge its exposure to any risks, including, without
limitation, interest-rate and foreign exchange-rate risks.
Mortgage-backedSecurities ("Mal) andAsset-backed Securities ("ABS')
Some investment characteristics of MBS and ABS differ from traditional debt
securities. Among the major differences are that interest and principal payments are made
more frequently, usually monthly, and that the principal may be prepaid at any time
because the underlying mortgages or other assets generally may be prepaid at any time.
The frequency with which prepayments (including voluntary prepayments by the obligors
and liquidations due to defaults and foreclosures) occur on loans and other assets
underlying MBS and ABS will be affected by a variety of factors including the prevailing
level of interest rates as well as economic, demographic, tax, social, legal and other factors.
Generally, mortgage obligors tend to prepay their mortgage loans when prevailing
mortgage rates fall below the interest rates on their mortgage loans. Although ABS are
generally less likely to experience substantial prepayments than are MBS, certain of the
factors that affect the rate of prepayments on MBS also affect the rate of prepayments on
II-37
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004040
EFTA00239372
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
ABS. Particular investments may experience outright losses, as in the case of an interest
only security in an environment of accelerated actual or anticipated prepayments.
Particular investments will be affected by the credit quality of their underlying loans and
the creditworthiness of the borrowers. Also, particular investments may underperform
relative to hedges that a Portfolio Manager may have constructed in these investments,
resulting in a loss.
Illiquid andRestricted Securities
Certain Portfolio Managers may invest in illiquid over-the-counter securities,
securities of young, development-stage companies (whether publicly traded or issued in a
private placement) and financially troubled companies, non-publicly traded securities,
MBS, ABS and securities traded on exchanges in less-developed markets, and may make
other investments that are relatively illiquid or that subsequently become illiquid. In
general, securities and other investments are classified as illiquid because there are
legally-imposed restrictions on resale or liquidation, because the market for the particular
security or the volume of trading is so small as to effectively impose limits on the speed or
price at which the liquidation of a given position can be effected, or due to a combination
of the foregoing factors. Portfolio Managers may be unable to sell illiquid securities and
investments at the most opportune times or at prices approximating the value at which the
Fund is carrying the securities or investments.
Small Capitalization Companies
Certain Portfolio Managers may invest in securities of small capitalization
companies and recently organized companies and may establish significant long or short
positions in such securities. While such securities may provide significant potential for
appreciation, the securities of certain companies, particularly smaller-capitalization
companies, involve higher risks in some respects than do investments in securities oflarger
companies. Historically, such securities have been more volatile in price than those of
larger capitalized, more established companies. The securities of small capitalization and
recently organized companies typically pose greater investment risks because the issuers
may have limited product lines, distribution channels and financial and managerial
resources. In particular, small capitalization companies may be operating at a loss or have
significant period-to-period variations in operating results; may be engaged in a rapidly
changing business with products subject to substantial risk of obsolescence; may require
substantial additional capital to support their operations, to finance expansion or to
maintain their competitive position; and may have substantial borrowings or may otherwise
have a weak financial condition. In addition, these companies may face intense
competition, including competition from companies with greater financial resources, more
extensive development, manufacturing, marketing, and other capabilities, and a larger
number of qualified managerial and technical personnel. Further, there is often less
publicly available information concerning such companies than for larger, more
established businesses. The equity securities of small capitalization companies may not be
traded in the volumes typical of larger capitalization companies. Consequently, the
Portfolio Managers or entities in which the Portfolio Managers invest may be required to
dispose of the securities or cover a short position over a longer (and potentially less
II-38
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004041
EFTA00239373
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
favorable) period of time than is required to dispose of or cover a position with respect to
the securities of larger, more established companies. Investments in small capitalization
companies may also be more difficult to value than other types of securities because of the
foregoing considerations as well as lower trading volumes. Investments in companies with
limited operating histories may be more speculative and may entail greater risk than
investments in companies with an established operating record. Additionally, transaction
costs for these types of investments are often higher than for those in larger capitalization
companies. In addition, due to thin trading in the securities of some small-capitalization
companies, an investment in those companies may be illiquid.
Hedging Transactions
The Fund utilizes financial instruments both for investment purposes and for risk
management purposes in order to: (i) protect against possible changes in the market value
of the Fund's investment portfolio resulting from fluctuations in the securities markets and
changes in interest rates; (ii) protect the Fund's unrealized gains in the value of the Fund's
investment portfolio; (iii) facilitate the sale of any such investments; (iv) enhance or
preserve returns, spreads or gains on any investment in the Fund's portfolio; (v) hedge
against a directional trade; (vi) hedge the interest rate or currency exchange rate or other
specific attributes of any position among such Fund's liabilities or assets; (vii) protect
against any increase in the price of any securities the Fund anticipates purchasing at a later
date; or (viii) satisfy any other purpose that the Portfolio Manager deems appropriate.
Hedging against a decline in the value of a portfolio position does not eliminate
fluctuations in the values of portfolio positions or prevent losses, although hedging does
typically reduce the risk of loss. On the other hand, the hedging transactions also limit the
opportunity for gain if the value of a portfolio position should increase. Moreover, it should
be noted that (i) a Portfolio Manager may determine not to hedge against, or may not
anticipate, certain risks, (ii) the portfolio will always be exposed to certain risks that cannot
be hedged, and (iii) there is no guarantee that a hedge will be properly implemented, will
function in the manner anticipated or will not be adversely effected by changes in the
applicable law or regulation.
The success of the Fund's hedging transactions to a significant degree will be
subject to the ability of each Portfolio Manager correctly to assess the relationships
between groupings of securities within the Portfolio Manager's portfolio. In addition, the
degree of correlation between price movements of the instruments used in a hedging
strategy and price movements in the portfolio position being hedged may vary. Since the
characteristics of many securities change as markets change or time passes, the success of
any hedging strategy will also be subject to the ability to continually recalculate, readjust
and execute hedges in an efficient and timely manner. While the Fund may enter into
hedging transactions to seek to reduce risk, such transactions may result in a poorer overall
performance for the Fund than if it had not engaged in such hedging transactions. For a
variety of reasons, a Portfolio Manager may not seek to, and usually will not be able to,
establish a perfect correlation between the hedging instruments utilized and the portfolio
holdings being hedged. Such an imperfect correlation may prevent the Fund from
achieving the intended hedge or expose the Fund to risk of loss. The Fund will not be
II-39
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004042
EFTA00239374
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
required to hedge any particular risk in connection with a particular transaction or its
portfolios generally, and it is anticipated that the Fund will always be exposed to certain
risk that may not be hedged and that may not be able to be adequately hedged. The
successful utilization of hedging and tisk management transactions requires skills
complementary to those needed in the selection of the Fund's portfolio holdings.
Currency hedging activities that the Fund engages in on behalf of any Feeder Fund
that issues non-U.S. denominated interests, as described under "Hedging Related to Non-
U.S. Dollar Denominated Sub-Classes," generally will require the use of a portion of the
Fund's assets for margin or settlement payments or other purposes. For example, the Fund
may from time to time be required to make margin, settlement or other payments, including
intra-month, in connection with the use of certain hedging instruments. Counterparties to
any currency hedging activities may demand payments on short notice, including intra-
day. As a result, the Fund may liquidate assets sooner than it otherwise would have in
order to have available cash to meet current or future margin calls, settlement or other
payments, or for other purposes. Moreover, due to volatility in the currency markets and
changing market circumstances, the Fund may not be able to accurately predict future
margin requirements, which may result in holding excess or insufficient cash and liquid
securities for such purposes. Where the Fund does not have cash or assets available for
such purposes, the Fund may be required to dispose of assets at disadvantageous prices or
might fail to comply with certain of its contractual obligations. Such failures could,
without limitation, include failing to meet margin calls or settlement or other payment
obligations. If the Fund were to default on any of its material contractual obligations, the
Fund would likely be materially adversely affected.
Hedging Related to Non-US Dollar Denominated Sub-Classes
One of the Feeder Funds, Millennium International Ltd., has issued a sub-class of
shares the functional currency of which is the Euro and another sub-class of shares the
functional currency of which is the Yen (collectively, the "Non-USD Shares"). The
Feeder Fund generally expects to seek to hedge the currency exposure of the Non-USD
Shares to minimize, to the extent reasonably practicable, fluctuations in the value of such
shares arising from fluctuations in the applicable exchange rate and expects to engage in
transactions, including the purchase and sale of spot and forward contracts, currency
options and currency futures contracts to manage U.S. dollar-foreign currency risks. The
expense and risk associated with such transactions is borne by the holders of the relevant
sub-classes of Non-USD Shares. There can be no assurance that the currency hedging
activities in connection with the Non-USD Shares will be effective. In addition, there can
be no assurance that the currency hedging activities will fully protect investors from a
decline in the value of the U.S. dollar against the foreign currency. There may be
circumstances in which the Fund (or any other entity engaging in the hedging of the Non-
USD Shares) determines not to conduct any currency hedging activities in whole or in part
for a certain period of time, including, without limitation, when such entity determines, in
its sole discretion, that currency hedging is not practicable or possible or may materially
and adversely affect the Fund or any of its direct or indirect investors, such actions may be
taken without notice to shareholders of the applicable Feeder Fund. As a result, foreign
currency exposure could go fully or partially unhedged for that period of time. There can
II-40
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004043
EFTA00239375
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
be no assurance that the Fund (or any other entity engaging in the hedging of the Non-USD
Shares), will, or will be able to, hedge, or be successful in hedging, the currency risk
referred to. As an alternative to some or all of the hedging activities described above a
Feeder Fund may maintain part or all of the initial investment in the applicable currency,
and may convert a portion of amounts subsequently earned by the Master Partnership into
such currency and, directly or indirectly, may make that currency available to the Master
Partnership for business conducted in such currency by it in the ordinary course. See
"Related-Party Transactions and Other Accounts; Conflicts—Hedging Activities Related
to Shares ofFeeder Funds Not Denominated in U.S. Dollars."
Cash Management
As noted below in "The Fund's Investment Program and Description: Eligible
Investments," the Fund may hold cash or money market instruments. The percentage of
the Fund invested in and among such holdings varies and depends on various factors,
including market conditions and purchases and redemptions or withdrawals of shares or
interests of the Feeder Funds. The Fund may agree to certain restrictions on the liquidity
of the underlying cash or money market instruments in exchange for a more favorable
interest rate or increased capacity (e.g., "time deposits"). Furthermore, when instruments
other than demand deposits of cash are held (e.g., money market instruments or short term
securities), there may be greater market risk, illiquidity risk or the risk of operational delays
in converting the instrument into cash. Demand deposits in cash are generally not
collateralized and would give rise to an unsecured claim in the event of the bankruptcy of
the deposit-taking institution.
Trading in Commodities and Derivatives Generally
Certain Portfolio Managers may utilize derivative instruments such as options,
futures, forward contracts, total return swaps, credit default swaps, and interest rate swaps,
caps and floors, both for investment purposes and as hedges. These are instruments whose
values are based upon underlying assets, indices or reference rates or a combination of
these, and generally represent future commitments to exchange cash flows or to purchase
or sell other financial instruments (or make an equivalent cash payment) at specified future
dates. Certain derivatives (options and credit default swaps in particular) may have
intrinsic value separate from the value of underlying assets based upon market perception
of creditworthiness or expected volatility in the value of the asset. The use of derivatives
involves a variety of material risks, including the possibility of counterparty non-
performance as well as of deviations between the actual and theoretical value of the
derivatives. Derivatives also are inherently subject to two sources of risk: risk of loss due
to adverse changes in the value of the underlying asset and risk of loss due to the insolvency
or creditworthiness of the counterparty. In addition, the markets for certain derivatives
may be illiquid.
Derivatives are typically intrinsically leveraged investments that may entail
investment exposures that are greater than the initial amount of collateral required to enter
into the derivative, meaning that an investment in a derivative could ultimately incur losses
many times greater than the initial collateral requirements and could therefore have a
II-41
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004044
EFTA00239376
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
disproportionate effect on the performance of the Fund. The Fund could also experience
losses if the derivatives that are acquired or sold as a hedge are poorly correlated with the
investment to be hedged, or if a Portfolio Manager is unable to liquidate a position because
of an illiquid secondary market. Changes in liquidity may result in significant, rapid and
unpredictable changes in the prices for derivatives.
The Portfolio Managers may trade commodities, futures and options, and may enter
into swap agreements. The prices of commodities contracts and all derivative instruments,
including futures and options, may depend upon a number of factors, including the prices
of the underlying assets and may be highly volatile. Price movements of commodities,
futures and options contracts and payments pursuant to swap agreements are influenced
by, among other things, interest rates, changing supply and demand relationships, trade,
fiscal, monetary and exchange control programs and policies of governments, and national
and international political and economic events and policies. In addition, the Fund is
subject to the risk of failure of any of the exchanges on which they trade, their
clearinghouses or the clearing brokers through which their trades clear. In the case of
commodity contracts traded on non-U.S. exchanges and certain derivative instruments, the
Fund may be subject to the risk of the inability of, or refusal by, the counterparty to
perform. In addition, profits realized in non-U.S. markets could be eliminated by adverse
changes in the applicable currency exchange-rate, or the Fund could incur losses as a result
of those changes.
Factors Affecting Commodities Prices
The values of commodities which underlie commodity futures contracts and other
types of financial instruments are generally affected by, among other factors, the cost of
producing commodities, changes in consumer demand for commodities, the hedging and
trading strategies of producers and consumers of commodities, speculative trading in
commodities by commodity pools and other market participants, disruptions in commodity
supply, weather and climate conditions, changes in interest rates, rates of inflation,
currency devaluations and revaluations, embargoes, tariffs, regulatory developments,
governmental, agricultural, trade, fiscal, monetary and exchange control programs and
policies, political and other global events and global economic factors. In addition,
governments from time to time intervene, directly and by regulation, in certain markets,
often with the intent to influence prices directly. The effects of governmental intervention
may be particularly significant at certain times in certain markets and this intervention may
cause these markets to move rapidly. The Fund and the Portfolio Managers have no control
over the factors that affect the price of commodities. Accordingly, the value of the Fund's
investments could change substantially and in a rapid and unpredictable manner.

Markets for energy-related commodities, including, without limitation, electricity,
coal, natural gas, crude oil and other petroleum products, can be susceptible to substantial
price fluctuations over short periods of time and are particularly affected by political
events, natural disasters, exploration and development success or failure, and technological
changes. Energy-related commodities are also subject to governmental action for political
II-42
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004045
EFTA00239377
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
reasons. In addition, significant short-term price volatility can be caused by the inability
to store electricity, tariff regulation and consumer advocacy.
Agricultural Commodities
Agricultural commodities are particularly sensitive to changes in, among other
things, climate, crop and livestock health, world political events, government action
(including export and import restrictions and embargoes), international and regional trade
contracts, labor contracts, transportation systems and crop predictions. Significant
production declines and volume decreases of agricultural commodities can occur as a result
of, among other things, hurricanes, weather patterns, floods, fires and other natural
disasters. In addition, agricultural commodities are subject to price volatility as a result of
disruptions relating to the facilities necessary to produce, transport, store and deliver the
agricultural commodity. As a result, the net assets of the Fund may be affected by such
factors.
Precious andIndustrialMetals
Prices of precious metals (e.g., gold, silver, platinum and palladium) and industrial
metals (e.g., iron and steel) are affected by factors such as cyclical economic conditions,
political events, and monetary policies of various governments and countries. In addition,
certain precious metals are geographically concentrated, and events in those parts of the
world in which such concentration exists may affect their values. Gold and other precious
metals are also subject to governmental action for political reasons. The markets for
precious metals are volatile and there may be sharp fluctuations in prices even during
period of rising prices.
Storage ofPhysical Commodities
The Fund may from time to time take physical delivery of commodities and store
them for future sale. In such cases the Fund will make use of commercial storage facilities
appropriate to the particular physical commodity in question. Commodities held in storage
are subject to a risk of loss in the event of bankruptcy of the storage facility, or physical
damage to the storage facility and its contents. Physical loss of stored commodities may
be the result of insurable or uninsurable risks. Millennium may choose not to purchase
insurance for insurable risks based on its assessment of the cost of the insurance compared
to the risks insured. Even if the physical commodities owned by the Fund are insured,
certain events such as terrorist attacks or extreme weather events may not be covered by
such insurance.
Physical Assets
Investments in physical assets, including, without limitation, oil, gas, electric
power, transmission facilities and power plants, as well as traditional commodities such as
wheat or sugar, are subject to risks—destruction, loss, industry-specific regulation (e.g.,
pollution control regulation), operating failures, labor relations, etc.—that are not typically
directly relevant to financial instrument trading. In addition the regulation of such assets is
extensive and variable, and the Fund's interests in certain of such assets could be wholly
II-43
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004046
EFTA00239378
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
illiquid for long periods of time. Prices of physical assets are affected by factors such as
global supply and demand, investors' expectations with respect to the rate of inflation,
currency exchange rates, interest rates, investment and trading activities of hedge funds
and commodity funds, and global or regional political, economic or financial events and
situations. Markets can be volatile at times, and there may be sharp fluctuations in prices
even during periods of rising prices.
Leverage; Interest Rates; Margin
The Fund typically borrows funds (and could potentially issue debt securities), and
leverages its investment portfolio in order to be able to increase the amount of capital
available to make investments and for use as collateral in connection with investments in
derivatives. In addition, there is a significant degree of leverage typically embedded in
certain derivative instruments and certain repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions
in the Fund's investment portfolio. Consequently, the level of interest rates, generally, and
the rates at which the Fund can borrow, in particular, will affect its operating results.
Although leverage will increase investment return if a given Portfolio Manager earns a
greater return on the investments purchased with borrowed funds than it pays for the use
of those funds, the use of leverage will decrease the return of the Fund if the Portfolio
Manager fails to earn as much on investments utilizing borrowed funds as it pays for the
use of those funds. The use of leverage will in this way magnify the volatility of changes
in the value of an interest in the Fund. In the event of a sudden, precipitous drop in value
of the Fund's assets, the providers of leverage to the Fund may be entitled under their
agreements with the Fund to liquidate the assets at then-prevailing levels, which would be
depressed. There can be no certainty that the assets of the Fund would be sufficient to
repay all of its debts under those or similar circumstances. (See "The Fund's Investment
Program and Description: Leverage and Loans.")
Certain Regulatory Risks
Regulatory Changesfor Hedge fiords
The legal, tax and regulatory environment worldwide for private funds (such as the
Fund) and their managers is evolving, and changes in the regulation of private funds, their
managers, and their trading and investing activities may have a material adverse effect on
the ability of the Fund to pursue its investment program and the value of investments held
by the Fund. There has been an increase in scrutiny of the alternative investment industry
by governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations. New laws and regulations or
actions taken by regulators that restrict the ability of the Fund to pursue its investment
program or conduct business with brokers and other counterparties could have a material
adverse effect on the Fund and the investors' investments therein. Such laws and
regulations may also materially increase the costs of operating the Fund and the costs of
executing and financing certain strategies utilized by the Fund, which costs are borne by
the Fund. In addition, Millennium may, in its sole discretion, cause the Fund to be subject
to certain laws and regulations if it believes that to be in the Fund's interest, even if such
laws and regulations may have a detrimental effect on one or more investors.
II-44

EFTA00239379
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Dodd-Frank Act
The U.S. Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the
"Dodd-Frank Act") was enacted in July 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act has resulted in
extensive rulemaking and regulatory changes that affect private fund managers, the funds
that they manage and the financial industry as a whole. Additionally, under the Dodd-
Frank Act, the SEC and the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTCC")
have mandated (and will mandate) new recordkeeping, reporting, central clearing and
mandatory trading on electronic facilities requirements for investment advisers, which add
costs to the legal, operational and compliance obligations of Millennium and the Fund and
increase the amount of time that Millennium spends on non-investment-related activities.
The Dodd-Frank Act affects a broad range of market participants with whom the Fund
interacts or may interact, including banks, non-bank financial institutions, rating agencies,
mortgage brokers, credit unions, insurance companies, payday lenders and broker-dealers,
and may change the way in which Millennium conducts business with its brokers and other
counterparties. It may take years to fully understand the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act on
the financial industry as a whole, and therefore, the continued uncertainty may make
markets more volatile and make it difficult for Millennium to execute the investment
strategy of the Fund.
Regulation in the Derivatives Industry
The Dodd-Frank Act has had a significant impact on the derivatives industry. The
Dodd-Frank Act divides the regulatory responsibility for derivatives in the United States
between the SEC and the CFTC, a distinction that does not exist in any other jurisdiction.
The CFTC has regulatory authority over "swaps" and the SEC has regulatory authority
over "security-based swaps." As a result of this bifurcation and the different pace at which
the agencies have promulgated necessary regulations, different transactions are subject to
different levels of regulation in the U.S. Though many rules and regulations have been
finalized, there are others that are still in the proposal stage and more that will be
introduced. In addition, there has been and will be extensive rulemaking related to
derivative products by non-U.S. regulatory authorities. Differences between regulatory
regimes may make it more difficult or costly for dealers, prime brokers, futures commission
merchants ("FCMs"), custodians, exchanges, clearinghouses and other entities, such as the
Fund, to comply with and follow various regulatory regimes. There are significant legal,
operational, technological and trading implications that result from the Dodd-Frank Act
and related rules and regulations that may make it difficult or impossible for the Fund to
enter into otherwise beneficial transactions.
Systemic Risk
Systemic risk is the risk of broad financial system stress or collapse triggered by
the default of one or more financial institutions, which results in a series of defaults by
other interdependent financial institutions. Financial intermediaries, such as clearing
houses, banks, securities firms and exchanges with which the Fund interacts, as well as the
Fund, are all subject to systemic risk. A systemic failure could have material adverse
II-45
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004048
EFTA00239380
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
consequences on the Fund and on the markets for the securities in which the Fund seeks to
invest.
Assumption ofBusiness, Terrorism and Catastrophe Risks
The Fund may be subject to the risk of loss arising from exposure that it may incur,
indirectly, due to the occurrence of various events, including, without limitation,
hurricanes, earthquakes, and other natural disasters, terrorism and other catastrophic
events. These risks of loss can be substantial and could have a material adverse effect on
the Fund and Feeder Fund investors' investments therein.
Central Clearing
In order to mitigate counterparty risk and systemic risk in general, various U.S. and
international regulatory initiatives are underway to require certain derivatives to be cleared
through a clearinghouse. In the U.S., clearing requirements were part of the Dodd-Frank
Act. The CFTC imposed its first clearing mandate on December 13, 2012 affecting certain
interest rate and credit default swaps. It is expected that the CFTC and the SEC will
introduce clearing requirements for other derivatives in the future. Trades submitted for
clearing will be subject to minimum initial and variation margin requirements set by the
relevant clearinghouse, the FCM, as well as possible SEC or CFTC mandated margin
requirements. Clearing through FCMs has in certain cases led to losses caused by
operational failure or fraud. As products become more standardized in order to be cleared,
standardized derivatives may mean that the Fund may not be able to hedge its risks or
express an investment view as well as it would using customizable derivatives available in
the over-the-counter markets. Compared to the OTC derivatives market, the Fund may be
subject to more onerous and more frequent (daily or even intraday) margin calls from both
the clearinghouse and the FCM. In addition, clearinghouse margin is dynamic and may be
increased in times of market stress. Although standardized clearing for derivatives is
intended to reduce risk (for instance, it may reduce the counterparty risk to the dealers to
which the Fund would be exposed under OTC derivatives), it does not eliminate risk.
Rather, standardized clearing transfers risk of default from the over-the-counter derivatives
dealer to the central clearinghouse, which may increase systemic risk, potentially more so
than a failure by an OTC derivatives counterparty. The failure of a clearinghouse, although
less likely than the failure of a counterparty, could have a much more significant impact on
the financial system. Because these clearinghouses are still developing and the related
bankruptcy process is untested, it is difficult to speculate what the actual risks would be to
the Fund related to the default of a clearinghouse. Also, a clearinghouse will likely require
that the Fund relinquish control of its transactions if the clearinghouse were to become
insolvent, and, therefore, the Fund would not be able to terminate and close out of a
defaulting clearinghouse's positions, but would become subject to regulators' control over
those positions. In such a circumstance, the Fund may not be able to take actions that it
deems appropriate to lessen the impact of such clearinghouse's default. Applicable
regulations may also require the Fund to make public information regarding its swaps
volume, position size and/or trades, which could detrimentally impact the Fund's ability to
achieve its investment objectives.

The EU Regulation on OTC Derivatives Central Counterparties and Trade
Repositories
The European Market Infrastructure Regulation ("EMIR") on OTC derivatives,
central counterparties and trade repositories introduced uniform requirements covering
financial counterparties, such as investment firms, credit institutions, insurance companies
and managers of alternative investment funds, and certain non-financial counterparties, in
respect of central clearing of so-called "eligible" OTC derivative contracts through a duly
authorized central counterparty, required reporting the details of derivative contracts to a
trade repository and established certain risk mitigation requirements. Prospective investors
should be aware that the regulatory changes arising from EMIR have increased and may
further increase the cost of entering into derivative transactions and adversely affect the
Fund's ability to adhere to its investment approach and achieve its investment objective.
Impact ofMIFID II
The revised Markets in Financial Instruments Directive 2014/65/EU and the Markets in Financial
Instruments Regulation (EU) ("MiFIR") (together "MiFID 11") set out new rules
applicable to investment activities and investment services carried on in the European
Union ("EU"). Among other things, MiFID II mandated broader post-trade transparency
in the EU, and extended the market-facing and regulatory reporting requirements on all
financial instruments traded on a trading venue (and certain other related instruments).
MiFID II introduced a new type of regulated trading venue, Organised Trading Facility
COTE.", and required that certain OTC derivative contracts be traded only on a regulated
trading venue. MiFID II introduced an EU-wide position limits regime applicable to EU
commodity derivatives, which has direct extraterritorial application and could affect the
portfolio composition and/or trading strategy of the Fund. In addition, MiFID II introduces
new rules on high frequency and other algorithmic trading in financial instruments, which
may have an adverse impact on the Fund's operations, including limiting its ability to trade
on EU trading venues in the manner it wishes. MiFID II also introduced requirements on
firms providing direct electronic access to EU trading venues, including a requirement that
such firms must be firms regulated under MiFID II (or equivalent) and that such firms
undertake appropriate due diligence on the persons to whom they provide direct electronic
access, especially if direct electronic access is provided to non-EU persons. Regulatory
changes arising from MiFID II may adversely affect the Fund's ability to adhere to its
investment approach and achieve its investment objectives.
Brexit
In June 2016, the UK voted to leave the EU, commonly referred to as "Brexit," and
as of March 29, 2017 the UK triggered the withdrawal procedures in Article 50 of the
Treaty of Lisbon, initiating a two-year (or, with the agreement of all parties, longer) period
during which the arrangements for exit are to be negotiated. There can be no assurance
that there will be a successful conclusion to those negotiations. This vote and the
withdrawal process could cause an extended period of uncertainty and market volatility,
not just in the UK but throughout the EU, the European Economic Area and globally. It is
not possible to ascertain the precise impact these events may have on the Fund or
II-47
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004050

Millennium from an economic, financial or regulatory perspective or whether any such
impact would be material.
Misconduct ofEmployees andof Third-Party Service Providers
Millennium's reputation is critical to maintaining and developing relationships with
prospective investors, as well as with the numerous third parties with which Millennium
and the Fund do business and with a variety ofregulatory authorities. In recent years, there
have been a number ofhighly publicized cases involving fraud, conflicts of interest or other
misconduct by individuals in the financial services industry, and there is a risk that an
employee of or contractor to Millennium, the Fund or their affiliates could engage in
misconduct that adversely affects the investment strategies implemented by the Fund. It is
not always possible to deter such misconduct, and the precautions Millennium takes to
detect and prevent such misconduct may not be effective in all cases. Misconduct by an
employee of or contractor to Millennium, the Fund or their affiliates, or even
unsubstantiated allegations of such misconduct, could result in both direct financial harm
to Millennium or the Fund, as well as harm Millennium's or the Fund's reputations, which
would have a materially adverse effect on the Fund primarily as a result of the withdrawal
of assets from the Feeder Funds or increased resistance of investors to make new
investments.
Regulation Under the Laws ofthe Cayman Islands
Pursuant to the Mutual Funds Law (as amended) of the Cayman Islands, certain
"master funds" (as defined in the Mutual Funds Law) are required to be registered with,
and regulated by, the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority. The Master Partnership is
registered pursuant to the Mutual Funds Law and the consequences of regulation are
described below under "Certain Legal and Regulatory Matters Relating to the Fund—
Cayman Islands Mutual Funds Law."
Regulatory Actions
From lime to time, in the ordinary course of operations, certain of the Fund's
businesses are subject to regulatory inquiries, investigations and enforcement proceedings
from U.S. and non-U.S. governmental agencies, regulatory bodies and securities
commissions, which can be costly and occupy significant staff time and resources. Any
such inquiry, investigation or enforcement proceeding could include civil or criminal
proceedings resulting in a censure, fine, penalty and/or other sanction, including asset
freezes, injunctive or equivalent relief, or the suspension or expulsion of an individual.
Any such inquiry, investigation or enforcement proceeding could have a material adverse
impact on the Fund.
Securities Law Compliance Risks
The domestic and foreign laws and regulations governing trading in the securities
markets (and governing investing in other kinds of markets) are often complex and difficult
to implement and monitor (and may be even more difficult to implement and monitor in
light of the speed with which certain regulatory changes have been implemented in certain
II-48
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004051
EFTA00239383
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
jurisdictions), especially in the context of a fund structured like the Fund, and are subject
to re-interpretation (or different interpretations from those applied by the Fund in light of
information currently available to Millennium), which could expose the Fund, Millennium
and their respective affiliates to liability.
Investments in Foreign Markets andJurisdictions
The Fund invests its capital in large, liquid, and internationalized markets (such as,
among others, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Japan) as well as lesser-
developed emerging markets. The evolving laws and regulations applicable to the
securities and financial services industries of certain countries subject such markets to
uncertainty. By investing in such markets, the Fund risks misinterpreting or possibly
violating the local laws or the securities regulations of these jurisdictions and is subject to,
among other risks (certain of which are also present in developed markets): (i) currency
exchange-rate risk; (ii) inefficient clearing systems; (iii) the possible imposition of
withholding, income or excise taxes; (iv) the absence of uniform accounting, auditing and
financial reporting standards and practices, less rigorous disclosure requirements and little
or potentially biased government supervision and regulation; (v) the risk of terrorism and
acts of war; and (vi) economic and political risks, including expropriation, exchange
controls and restrictions on foreign investment and repatriation of capital. Emerging
markets may also be more vulnerable to periods of illiquidity and extreme volatility than
the more developed markets. In addition, when periods of stress occur in the developed
financial markets, the emerging markets as a group may suffer major price declines and
illiquidity.
Membership on Exchanges and/or in Clearing or Self-Regulatory Organizations
In an effort to facilitate certain investment strategies, the Fund and certain of its
subsidiaries and affiliates have become, and/or may become, members of exchanges,
clearing houses and other self-regulatory organizations and have obtained or will obtain a
variety of governmental licenses or authorizations. Such memberships, licenses or
authorizations subject these persons to a wide range of regulation and other obligations,
including net capital requirements, as well as to audits and other restrictions—in each case,
together with the associated costs.
Risk of Loss
The performance of the Fund and the Feeder Funds can be highly volatile. The
Fund may lose capital through (i) investment losses, (ii) withdrawals of capital by the
Feeder Funds to fund their expenses or in connection with equity withdrawals and
redemptions by their investors or (iii) a combination of investment losses and such
withdrawals of capital. Investment losses may give rise to requests for equity withdrawals
and redemptions, but withdrawals and redemptions may occur irrespective of performance,
and perhaps for reasons wholly unrelated to the Fund or the Feeder Funds.

The foregoing list of risk factors does not purport to be a complete enumeration or
explanation of the risks involved in an investment in a Feeder Fund. Prospective investors
should read Part One and Part Two of this Confidential Memorandum in their entirety and
the Partnership Agreement of the Fund, as well as the organizational documents of the
Feeder Fund in which they intend to invest and consult with their own advisers before
deciding whether to invest in a Feeder Fund.
The Fund's Management, Structure and Operations
Managemem
General Partner. The Partnership Agreement grants substantially all of the power
to control the affairs and operations of the Master Partnership to the General Partner. The
General Partner is a Delaware limited liability company that was formed in 1994. The
General Partner also serves as the sole general partner ofMillennium USA and Millennium
Offshore Intermediate.
The business address and telephone number of the General Partner and each of the
affiliated Relying Advisers (unless otherwise provided in Appendix I) is 666 Fifth Avenue,
New York, New York 10103-0899 (+1 (212) 841-4100).
Millennium Group Management Trust, a revocable trust (together with any
successor or residuary trust or trusts, the "Trust") established in July 2017, serves as the
ultimate controller of Millennium, including as the managing member of Millennium
Group Management LLC, which is in turn the managing member of the General Partner
and the general partner of Millennium International Management. Mr. Englander serves
as trustee of the Trust along with a number of other trustees (referred to herein collectively
as the "Trustee Advisory Board") as disclosed in Millennium's Form ADV Part One, as
amended from time to time, with Mr. Englander retaining exclusive control of the Trust
until his death or during any period of incapacity (as determined in accordance with the
Trust). Following Mr. Englander's death or during any period of incapacity, the remaining
members of the Trustee Advisory Board would assume control of the Trust to be exercised
by majority vote. Under the terms of the Trust, in such a circumstance, the trustees
generally would be authorized to appoint additional and successor trustees meeting certain
eligibility criteria specified in the Trust.
It is expected that in such a circumstance where Mr. Englander dies or becomes
incapacitated and the remaining trustees assume control, the day-to-day affairs of
Millennium would continue to be managed by its senior management team, subject to the
oversight of the Trustee Advisory Board, until such time as a decision about ultimate
succession is made by the Trustee Advisory Board (if applicable).
Affiliated Relying Advisers. In addition to the General Partner, Millennium's
principal related persons that act as investment managers and management companies and
manage the Fund's capital are set forth on Appendix I attached hereto.
Millennium may in the future register with local regulators if required or if such
registration is deemed appropriate, and in Millennium's sole discretion, may elect to

as an intern in 1985 and later joined full-time in 1986. He received his BS in
Engineering from the Colorado School of Mines and his MBA from the
University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA).
Office Locations
Millennium's primary U.S. office locations are currently in New York, New York
and Greenwich, Connecticut. Millennium's primary international office locations are in
London, U.K., Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Japan and Geneva, Switzerland.
Millennium has a number of other office locations as well.
Corporate Services
Pursuant to the Administration Agreement, the Administrator is responsible for the
register of the Fund to be maintained at the Administrator's registered address in the
Cayman Islands.
Ongoing Evaluation ofPortfolio Manager Groups
As discussed below under "The Fund's Risk Management Program," Millennium
engages in daily monitoring of all trading activity of the Fund, which allows Millennium
to review and evaluate the Portfolio Managers and their performance on an ongoing basis
based on various metrics that Millennium deems relevant from time to time.
Millennium's risk management personnel review the Portfolio Managers'
positions. Based on the results of these reviews and on other factors deemed by Millennium
to be relevant, decisions on increases or decreases of allocated capital (including the
continued engagement of Portfolio Managers) are made and reviewed.
The Fund's Investment Program and Description: Eligible Investments
Millennium, in managing the Fund's assets, follows an investment strategy that is
opportunistic with respect to investments and strategies and that is broadly diversified and
global in scope. The Fund does so by selecting, monitoring and evaluating Portfolio
Managers and allocating and reallocating the Fund's invested capital among them.
Consistent with this approach (and unlike many investment partnerships that as a matter of
investment policy require that no more than a fixed percentage of their assets are invested
in any one industry or group of industries), Millennium does not establish fixed guidelines
regarding diversification of investments to be followed by the Fund. At any given time,
the Fund's assets could be concentrated in securities or asset classes that the Portfolio
Managers believe offer an optimal opportunity for capital appreciation (subject to the
oversight ofMillennium's Risk Management Group). However, by virtue ofMillennium's
structure, in which assets are allocated among a number of Portfolio Managers utilizing
different strategies and investment approaches, as well as Millennium's general risk
II-54
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004057
EFTA00239389
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
management principles, which discourage concentrations, the Fund's assets will usually be
employed among a diversified set of strategies.
The Fund is authorized directly or indirectly, to invest in all types of securities and
instruments of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers and to participate in other potentially profitable
opportunities, including without limitation the short selling of securities. Examples of
securities traded and other investments made by the Fund include, but are not limited to
capital stock; shares of beneficial interest; partnership interests and similar financial
instruments; MBS; interests in real estate and real estate related assets; bonds, notes,
debentures (whether subordinated, convertible, secured, unsecured or otherwise);
currencies; physical commodities; interest rate, currency, commodity, equity and other
derivative products, including, without limitation, (i) futures contracts (and options
thereon) relating to stock indices, currencies, U.S. government securities and securities of
non-U.S. governments, other financial instruments and all other commodities, (ii) swaps,
options, contracts for difference, warrants, caps, collars, floors and forward rate
agreements, (iii) spot and forward currency transactions and (iv) agreements relating to or
securing such transactions; equipment lease certificates; equipment trust certificates; loans,
loan participations, and other obligations and instruments or evidences of indebtedness of
whatever kind or nature; accounts and notes receivable and payable held by trade or other
creditors; trade acceptances; contract and other claims; executory contracts; participations
and sub-participations; assignments of rights under financial and derivative contracts;
viatical settlements; insurance policies; pollution credits; money market funds; obligations
of the United States or any state thereof, non-U.S. governments and instrumentalities of
any of them; commercial paper; certificates of deposit; bankers' acceptances; trust receipts;
and annuities, structured settlements and similar payment rights. However, there are no
limits on the types of investments the Fund may make. The Fund may also hold cash,
money market instruments or commercial paper and short-term securities issued by the
U.S. government, its agencies and instrumentalities and other sovereign debt.
The Portfolio Managers, when they consider it appropriate and consistent with
applicable regulations and firm policies, may utilize repurchase and reverse repurchase
agreements, short sales, and leverage in their investment programs.
The Fund's Investment Program and Description:
Investment Strategies and Techniques
The Fund pursues an opportunistic investment policy. Millennium does not
establish fixed guidelines regarding diversification of strategies. The strategies that the
Fund may employ could be concentrated in strategies that Millennium or Portfolio
Managers believe offer the optimal opportunity for capital appreciation.
There are no material restrictions on the particular types of investing or on the
particular markets in which the Fund may invest. Millennium reviews and evaluates the
trading strategies in which the Fund's assets are invested, as well as new potential strategies
and investments.

(See "Certain Risk Factors Relating to an Investment in the Fund").
Investment Strategies
As discussed above, the Fund invests opportunistically and the universe of eligible
investments is not materially limited by any firm policies. However, the investment
strategies that the Fund employs include, among others, most or all of the following
strategies. The Fund may concentrate investments in a select few strategies while not
employing others and may employ additional investment strategies or suspend any such
strategies, as determined by Millennium in its discretion, at any time without notice.
Relative Value and Fundamental Equity Strategies. Portfolio Managers employing
a relative value strategy perform fundamental research on companies, usually within a
particular industry group (e.g., financial services) or subgroup (e.g., securities brokers).
These Portfolio Managers make use of research, company visits, industry conferences, and
their own expert knowledge in making investment decisions. Fundamental change at these
companies drives changes in investor perception, which impacts the valuation of their
securities. The Portfolio Manager attempts to: spot changes in fundamentals; identify
where comparable companies are mispriced in relation to each other and buy the
undervalued companies and short sell the overvalued ones, hoping to capture the excess
return as a perceived mispricing narrows, while minimizing overall net market risk. The
Portfolio Manager may also hedge its investment with a contra-investment in a correlated
index or sector rather than a comparable company.
Statistical Arbitrage and Quantitative Strategies. U.S. and non-U.S. statistical
arbitrage and quantitative strategies generally are quantitatively driven and are employed
across the global equity, interest rate, foreign exchange, commodity and currency markets.
The strategies attempt to identify over/under-valued securities. Generally, investments are
in more liquid securities and often focus on geographical regions, industry sectors or
securities with similar trading characteristics.
To help identify securities and outline market and non-market risks, Portfolio
Managers have built proprietary models that consider historical, as well as forward-looking
factors. Qualitative analysis of current business information may also be employed to
determine value, potential return, and relevant risk factors. Models and tools are monitored
and updated as paradigm shifts occur in the markets. In addition, Portfolio Managers seek
to mitigate market risk through diversification, hedging and by limiting exposure to any
one asset class, industry or company.
II-56
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004059
EFTA00239391
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Statistical arbitrage strategies are dependent on technology, and the Fund has
invested significantly in and developed the infrastructure to support this trading activity.
This infrastructure allows the Fund to trade electronically on a number of exchanges on a
global basis. The ongoing migration ofthe world's trading markets to electronic exchanges
continues to create opportunities for Portfolio Managers utilizing statistical trading
strategies. The turnover of these strategies can be high and marked by very short holding
periods and, as a result, profitability is often highly dependent on minimizing transaction
costs.
Additional quantitative strategies include index arbitrage and "delta-one" trading.
These strategies seek to capitalize on transient value differentials between baskets of stocks
and single instrument index-based securities or futures referencing those baskets. In
addition, these strategies can trade mispricing in the forward price curves of indices based
on supply/demand imbalances, pricing in the stock borrow/loan market, and market
fluctuations in expectations of dividend streams and interest rates. Strategies that seek to
profit from mispricing between cash baskets underlying futures and/or ETFs are
significantly dependent on low-latency market data and trading infrastructure. Strategies
that trade index forward curves depend on Portfolio Managers' insights into aberrant
relationships across futures and forwards expiry dates and implied forwards in options
markets. The success of index arbitrage and delta-one strategies is often predicated on
achieving optimal financing arrangements for the portfolios held.
Fixed-Income Strategies. The Portfolio Managers employ a number of fixed-
income strategies, including the following:
• Fixed—Income Arbitrage. Fixed-income arbitrage is a strategy that seeks to
profit from inefficient pricing of related fixed-income securities. Leverage
may be employed to maximize the return from the specific strategy. The
securities to which a Portfolio Manager will apply this strategy typically
trade at a perceived discount or premium to instruments that are otherwise
similar in maturity, yield and creditworthiness. Fixed-income arbitrage
trading is performed using sovereign debt, agency debt, corporate debt,
asset backed securities and related futures contracts, as well as over-the-
counter swaps, credit default swaps and other derivatives on these
instruments. The strategy typically involves buying these fixed-income
instruments and using various hedges (including derivatives) to reduce
interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk and call and redemption risk along
with other risks related to fixed-income instruments. The evaluation and
trading process can be complicated, highly technical, and heavily dependent
on computer processing power. A Portfolio Manager utilizing a fixed-
income arbitrage strategy may attempt to capture changes in the shape of
the yield curve of a given country's debt (the difference in yield between
different maturities of an issuer) or the relationship spreads between the
fixed-income securities of two different countries (e.g., yield curves on five-
year German bonds versus five-year U.S. Treasury notes).
II-57
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004060
EFTA00239392
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
• Swap Strategies. Strategies that focus in whole or in part on swap
transactions involve the use of bilateral contracts under a master swap or
netting agreement. Swap agreements allow parties to assume exposure to
risks in ways that generally are not available in existing securities. Often-
used swap instruments include interest rate swaps and credit default swaps.
In the classic interest rate swap, two counterparties will enter into an
agreement to exchange, or "swap," two or more interest rate payment
obligations, generally with one side holding a fixed rate obligation and the
other holding a floating rate obligation.
Credit default swaps involve the buying or selling of "protection" with
respect to a referenced debt obligation or basket of obligations. The party
that "sells the protection" will incur a payment obligation to the counterparty
if there is a default under the referenced obligation. The party that "buys
the protection" has a periodic payment obligation unless and until such a
default occurs or the swap terminates or expires. Credit default swaps can
be entered into as a distinct asset class (i.e., as a means of synthetically
"going long" or "going short" the referenced debt obligation or basket of
obligations), or as a hedge to a position in the referenced debt obligation.
See "Risk Factors—Certain Risks Relating to Aggressive Trading and
Financing Strategies."
• Credit Strategies. The Fund may be involved in various strategies that
involve being long and short different corporate and asset backed securities
and derivatives, including loan participations and allocations (i.e., interests
in a loan, generally governed by a credit agreement between the original
lending syndicate and the borrower) in the secondary market. The credits
involved will range from high grade to high yield and distressed debt.
• Mortgage-backed Securities. The Fund may invest in MBS and associated
derivatives. MBS are securities that represent an interest in, or are secured
by, mortgage loans secured by residential or commercial properties. MBS
have been issued in public and private transactions by a variety of public
and private issuers using a variety of structures. MBS may pay fixed or
floating rates of interest. MBS are generally structured as pass-through
certificates, representing an undivided ownership interest in a pool of
mortgage loans, or as debt obligations secured by mortgage loans. MBS
issued by a given issuer typically are divided into multiple classes. Certain
classes are subordinate to the senior classes with respect to both the timing
of payment of principal and/or interest and the allocation of losses on the
underlying mortgage loans. Other characteristics of MBS will vary with the
characteristics of the underlying mortgage loans.
• Foreign Exchange Strategies. The Fund may invest in foreign exchange
contracts, futures and associated derivatives. Portfolio Managers utilizing
foreign exchange strategies may attempt to capture relative valuation of
11-58
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004061
EFTA00239393
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
different currencies, or benefit from the price movement of various
currencies.
Merger Arbitrage and Event-Driven Strategies. Merger arbitrage and event-driven
investment strategies (also called risk arbitrage), including index rebalancing, are generally
based on announcements of mergers, acquisitions, tender offers, liquidations, spin-offs and
other corporate reorganizations and restructurings, and announcements of issuer
modifications or reweighting by the providers of market indices. A Portfolio Manager
employing a merger arbitrage or other event driven strategy will gain exposure to the stock
of a company or companies involved in an anticipated reorganization or restructuring,
depending upon the transactions and details, such as by purchasing the stock of a target
company and selling short the stock of an acquiring company, or will employ derivative
instruments to achieve a similar economic result. The value of such an investment is driven
by the ability to correctly estimate the spread between the security's then-current price and
its value at the transaction's completion, and to gauge the likelihood and timing of
completion of the transaction. Success requires in-depth knowledge of relevant corporate
processes, as well as legal and financial requirements. In some cases, this strategy may be
combined with an activist strategy. Index rebalancing strategies rely on directional long
and short positions based on anticipated modifications and reweighting of issuers making
up a certain index or indices maintained by the providers of such indices in the market.
The value of such a strategy is derived from the ability to correctly anticipate those issuers
who will be added, removed or otherwise have their weighting modified with respect to
the relevant index ahead of market movements reflecting the effects of the changes.
Commodities Trading Strategies. In these strategies, Portfolio Managers actively
trade relative value and cross commodity spreads in energy, metals and agricultural
markets utilizing commodity-linked derivative instruments, including without limitation,
futures, options, commodity-linked swaps and commodity-linked structured notes.
Portfolio Managers implementing commodities-focused strategies generally employ
systematic/quant driven strategies, or fundamental and technical discretionary strategies,
relying heavily on in-depth supply and demand research. These strategies are generally
focused on opportunities that arise due to the rapidly changing fundamentals that drive the
term structure of the commodity futures curves. Positions are scaled relative to the
underlying commodity's volatility enabling the use of the same risk management
disciplines that are employed across Millennium.
Distressed Strategies. Distressed strategies involve purchases and sales of debt and
quasi-debt securities and obligations of companies with what the market perceives to be a
declining creditworthiness. Portfolio Managers engaging in this strategy will often
purchase obligations of declining or low-credit quality borrowers at a discount, with the
hope or expectation that the company will either improve its performance without the need
to enter into bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, or that the company will seek the
protection of bankruptcy and insolvency laws and that its previously outstanding debt
obligations will be converted into obligations of or equity in a healthier, restructured
company.
II-59
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004062
EFTA00239394
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Closed-End Fund/Asset Arbitrage Strategies. This strategy involves identifying
discounted or high premium closed-end funds, companies with shares priced below net
asset value, or mispriced parent-subsidiary situations. This strategy can be combined with
short sales and derivative positions to create a hedge, or with an activist strategy designed
to cause the management to take actions that would cause the closed end fund's stock price
to converge with its portfolio's net asset value.
Convertible Arbitrage Strategies. Convertible arbitrage strategists identify
convertible bonds, convertible preferred stocks and/or warrants that appear mispriced to
fair value, or in relation to the underlying security, and offer a favorable rate of return. By
establishing a long position in a convertible security (usually preferred stock or bonds) and
an offsetting (complete or partial) short position in the underlying security into which the
convertible security is convertible (usually common stock of the issuer), a Portfolio
Manager invests with the expectation of capturing value by way of one or more themes
including price or yield differences, attractive absolute cash flow (e.g., coupon income and
stock borrowed rebate), cheap long volatility exposure, and attractive security adjustment
features due to expected corporate events. Other financial instruments such as futures,
options and credit default swaps may be used to hedge individual security and/or portfolio
exposure.
Options Trading Strategies. Options arbitrage (also known as option-volatility
trading) is a derivatives-based strategy that seeks to profit from market turbulence (or the
lack thereof), as reflected in movements in option prices that result from market
fluctuations. The goal of a Portfolio Manager employing this strategy is to buy
inexpensively priced (i.e., cheap implied volatility) options whose underlying instruments
are expected to be more volatile, and sell expensively priced (i.e., rich implied volatility)
options whose underlying instruments are expected to be less volatile. The strategy may
be implemented through options on equities and equity indices, or in other asset classes
such as FX and fixed income. Such option combinations include spreads (buying an option
to buy or sell an asset while simultaneously selling an option to buy or sell the same asset
with a different expiration date or strike price) or straddles (option combinations that will
profit from movement in the level of the value of an asset outside of certain bands, or the
lack of such movement, without regard to whether the movement is upward or downward).
Option-volatility trading may also involve trades in which futures (or other derivatives) are
used to create a position that synthetically resembles an option or option combination, or
in which options are purchased or sold versus an offsetting position in the underlying
market (such as a basket of stocks). The decision process is dependent on fundamental and
technical analysis of the underlying instruments. Computer models are often used to
enhance the execution of various hedges.
Direct Investing and SeedInvesting
The Fund may invest directly in financial instruments (as opposed to through
Portfolio Managers) utilizing any of the strategies described herein, or utilizing other
strategies as deemed appropriate by Millennium, or may increase (potentially materially)
the Fund's exposure to exposure to certain strategies or positions or to netted positions held
by a number of Portfolio Managers. The Fund may provide seed capital or early stage
II-60
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004063
EFTA00239395
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
capital, as well as negotiated capital, to one or more new or established Portfolio Managers.
Millennium may seek to enhance the return the Fund receives from such investments
through various contractual arrangements that provide the Fund with reduced fee
arrangements or an interest in the asset-based and performance-based compensation
generated from other sources by the applicable Portfolio Managers. Millennium may
negotiate any other appropriate return-enhancing or other arrangements in its sole
discretion.
Strategy Development
There are no substantive limits on the investment strategies that may be pursued by
the Fund. The Fund's capital may be invested in strategies other than those listed above,
and in strategies that may differ from those described above. In addition, as noted above,
Millennium employs an opportunistic investment strategy in allocating the Fund's capital
with an emphasis on consistency of returns rather than consistency of strategies, so the
amount of capital invested in each strategy generally will vary and new trading and
investment strategies which are different from (or are not included in) those described
above may (a) receive allocations of the Fund's capital or (b) receive increased allocations
of the Fund's capital.
Hedging
The Fund typically employs various hedging techniques to reduce certain actual or
potential risks to which the Fund's portfolio may be exposed. These hedging techniques
may involve the use of derivative instruments, including swaps, futures and forward
contracts, exchange-listed and over-the-counter put and call options, currency contracts,
and interest rate transactions. Millennium may employ these hedging techniques directly
or by investing a portion of the Fund's assets with a Portfolio Manager that engages in such
hedging techniques. The Fund is not required to employ any such hedging techniques and,
in the discretion of Millennium, may refrain from doing so at any time or with respect to
any positions. Even when such techniques are employed, they seldom hedge the risks of
positions entirely, and in some circumstances losses may be incurred on both the
underlying position and the hedge position simultaneously.
The Fund also engages in currency hedging on behalf of Millennium International
to hedge the currency exposure of certain classes of Millennium International that are
denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Such currency hedging activities
seek to minimize, to the extent reasonably practicable, fluctuations in the value of the non-
U.S. dollar denominated shares arising from fluctuations in the exchange rate and may
involve transactions including the purchase and sale of spot and forward contracts,
currency options and currency futures contracts to manage currency risks. The net results
of such currency hedging will be borne by the holders of the applicable non-U.S. dollar
denominated shares.
THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
OF THE FUND WILL BE ACHIEVED. THE PRACTICES OF SHORT SELLING,
LEVERAGE AND LIMITED DIVERSIFICATION MIGHT, IN CERTAIN
11-61
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004064
EFTA00239396
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
CIRCUMSTANCES, EXACERBATE ADVERSE PERFORMANCE OF THE FUND'S
PORTFOLIO.
The Fund's Investment Program and Description: Brokerage
In selecting brokers, dealers and other counterparties to effect portfolio
transactions for the Fund and provide financing for the Fund's portfolio, Millennium and
its Portfolio Managers will consider such factors as they deem appropriate under the
circumstances, which may include one or more ofthe following: the ability to obtain timely
execution and deliver timely execution reports; the responsiveness to the Fund's orders;
the reliability, reputation, integrity, and financial condition of the broker-dealer; the size
and volume of the broker's order flow; the ability to handle difficult trades, including block
trades; the ability to find liquidity in the market while also minimizing market impact;
research and other services provided to the Fund that are expected to enhance the Fund's
general portfolio management capabilities; other relationships between Millennium or the
Fund and the broker; the accommodation of special needs, including the broker's
willingness to enter into commission sharing arrangements/give-up agreements; and
commission rates, fees or market maker's commission equivalent (i.e., mark-downs and
mark-ups). Millennium does not have an obligation to obtain the lowest available
commission cost. Accordingly, if Millennium determines in good faith that the
commissions charged by a broker or the prices charged by a dealer are reasonable in
relation to the value of the brokerage and research products or services provided by such
broker or dealer, the Fund may pay commissions to such broker or prices to such dealer in
an amount greater than another might charge. Subject to its duty to seek to obtain best
execution, Millennium has complete discretion in deciding what brokers, dealers and other
counterparties the Fund will use and in negotiating the rates of compensation the Fund will
pay to such brokers, dealers and other counterparties. In many instances that discretion is
delegated to Portfolio Managers who make specific trading decisions, subject to oversight
by Millennium. Millennium maintains policies and procedures to review the quality of
executions, including periodic review by relevant personnel.
From time to time, brokers (including prime brokers) assist the Fund in
raising additional capital from investors. Additionally, brokers provide capital introduction
and marketing assistance services, and Millennium's representatives from time to time
speak at conferences and programs sponsored by the brokers, for investors interested in
investing in private investment funds. Through such events, prospective investors in the
Fund encounter Millennium's representatives. Certain of the Fund's prime brokers (or their
affiliates) also advise private funds or clients that make investments in the Feeder Funds or
may facilitate such investments in other ways. Neither Millennium nor the Fund directly
compensate any prime broker for engaging in such activities (except in circumstances
where Millennium is required to do so under applicable law). However, the events and
other services provided by a prime broker may influence Millennium to some extent in
selecting prime brokers and determining the extent to which a prime broker will be used.
With respect to "soft dollar" arrangements, the conflicts that typically give
rise to concerns underlying the use of soft dollars do not generally exist for Millennium,
because the Fund (and not the General Partner) bears all of the expenses related to its own
11-62
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004065
EFTA00239397
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
operation. Therefore, the use of soft dollars by Millennium does not result in any expense
shifting between the General Partner, on the one hand, and the Fund (and, indirectly,
investors in the Feeder Funds), on the other hand. However, Millennium's financial
statements will be affected by such soft dollar arrangements, as noted below.
Millennium has determined that the use of soft dollars will be limited to
research and brokerage products and services that Millennium believes meet the
requirements of Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Section 28(e)"),
and the SEC interpretations thereof, in jurisdictions and transactions where Section 28(e)
applies. This includes research and brokerage products and services paid for with soft
dollars generated by the trading activity directed by our affiliated management companies.
Although potentially outside the scope of Section 28(e), Millennium has also adopted a
policy to the effect that the requirements of Section 28(e) should generally be satisfied by
Millennium's affiliated non-U.S. management companies in addition to any local
requirements applicable to a particular management company with respect to the use of
soft dollars. (See, for example, "Certain Risk Factors Related to Investment in the Fund;
Risks of Certain Trading Strategies, Techniques and Instruments—EU Regulation on
Markets in Financial Instruments.")
It is Millennium's policy to generate soft dollars with commissions on
securities transactions, and, in accordance with SEC interpretations, with markups,
markdowns, commission equivalents or other fees paid to a dealer for executing a
transaction. In addition, to the extent consistent with applicable regulatory requirements,
soft dollars may be generated through futures transactions, certain principal transactions,
non-U.S. transactions, or other transactions.
Research products or services provided to the Fund include research reports
on particular industries and companies, economic surveys and analyses, recommendations
as to specific securities, and relevant market data, as well as other products and services
that provide assistance to Millennium or the Portfolio Managers in the performance of their
investment and trading decision-making responsibilities. Brokerage products or services
provided to Millennium may include message services used to transmit orders to brokers
for execution, trading software used to route orders to market centers, and software used
to transmit orders to direct market access systems and short-term custody. Where a product
or service obtained with soft dollars provides both research or brokerage and non-research
or non-brokerage assistance (i.e., a "mixed use" item), Millennium will make a reasonable
allocation of the cost which is to be paid for with commission dollars.
Consistent with Section 28(e), research products or services obtained with
soft dollars generated by the Fund may be used by Millennium to service one or more Other
Accounts (as defined under "Related-Party Transactions and Other Accounts; Conflicts—
Other Accounts or Activities"), including Other Accounts that may not have paid for the
soft dollar benefits. Millennium will seek to allocate the cost of the research products or
services, including such items paid for using soft dollars, among the Fund and the Other
Accounts in accordance with its expense allocation policies as may be adopted from time
to time. (See "Related-Party Transactions and Other Accounts; Conflicts—Allocation of
Expenses Among Feeder Funds and Other Accounts.")
11-63
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004066
EFTA00239398
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Investors should note that a consequence of the use of soft dollar
arrangements is that, under GAAP, items that would otherwise have been characterized as
an expense in the consolidated financial statements of the Master Partnership will instead
be subsumed within commissions. As a result, line-item expenses will appear smaller than
they would have had soft dollars not been utilized. It is possible that some expenses paid
through the utilization of soft dollar arrangements might be greater than if Millennium or
the Fund had purchased the research or brokerage services in question directly or had
produced them internally.
In certain jurisdictions, separate research charges may be assessed alongside
the Fund's transactions and collected by the Fund's trading counterparties, for the purpose
of funding a research payment account controlled by Millennium. Such research charges
are separate and independent of any commissions.
The Fund has arrangements with a number of brokers and clears certain of
the Fund's transactions for securities, equities, bonds, options and futures through a number
ofbrokerage firms; however, the Fund (or an affiliate) may, but is not required to, clear its
own trades (and Millennium may execute transactions through one broker and clear
transactions through another broker). Brokers may also act as custodians for the Fund's
securities. To the extent that securities are purchased in non-U.S. markets, non-U.S.
brokers may be used and may maintain custody of the securities until such time as they are
sold.
Given the Fund's investment program, short-term market considerations are
frequently involved. Turnover of portions of the Fund's portfolio, and, therefore brokerage
commissions, will be substantially greater than the turnover rates of some other types of
investment vehicles.
The Fund's Investment Program and Description: Leverage and Loans
The Fund's investment portfolio is ordinarily leveraged in order to increase the
amount investments that may be made with invested capital on hand.
Derivative Instrumetto andLeverage
Millennium causes the Fund to leverage its investment return with borrowings. The
Fund also trades in a variety of options, contracts for difference, portfolio swaps,
commodity futures contracts, short sales, swaps, repurchase agreements, forwards and
other derivative instruments, most of which have embedded leverage in that the derivative
instrument will fluctuate in value in relation to the underlying instruments but such changes
will have a greater impact on the market value of the derivative instruments. Certain over-
the-counter securities and derivatives require no margin to be deposited. In addition, in
some cases, variation margin is not bilateral (e.g., the Fund might, in a leveraged
transaction, be required to pay variation margin to one party but might not be entitled to
receive variation margin from the other party). The amount of borrowings which the Fund
may have outstanding at any time may be large in relation to its capital.
II-64
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004067
EFTA00239399
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Leverage ofSpecific Investments
From time to time, the Fund may have the opportunity to achieve leverage from
sources other than its prime brokers. For example, in some cases a third-party financial
institution may agree to leverage a specific investment in an outside fund, in which case
the lender will take a security interest in the investment and may also take nominal title to
the investment. A variation of this kind of financing is for a third-party financial institution
to take a position in an outside fund or investment, and to enter into a leveraged total return
swap or purchase option with the Fund.
Additional Leverage Opportunities
As the number of financial products that relate to investment in investment funds
increases, Millennium will continually evaluate new sources of financing and leverage.
The Fund's Risk Management Program
Millennium maintains an investment risk assessment and management program
designed to identify, measure, monitor, manage and report on the market risks of the
portfolios of the Fund. Automated and manual risk monitoring is performed at a firm-wide
level and at a Portfolio Manager level, and various other monitoring may be performed as
well. The investment risk assessment and management program is coordinated through
Millennium's investment risk management personnel, subject to the oversight of
Millennium's senior management.
The Master Partnership's Fees and Expenses
All expenses incurred by or allocated to the Master Partnership, without limitation,
are assessed against the interests of the partners of the Master Partnership and, in turn,
against the interests of investors in the Feeder Funds, including, without limitation,
expenses incurred by Millennium with respect to, or in connection with (e.g., through the
operation of and the provision of services to), the Master Partnership. The Master
Partnership does not charge or pay to Millennium a management fee.
Below is a non-exhaustive list of such expenses:
expenses, salaries, fringe benefits, bonuses, and performance-based
compensation paid or reimbursed to all employees, including, without limitation,
Portfolio Managers and members of management, expenses and fees paid or
reimbursed to consultants, subcontractors and agents, and investment advisers
engaged directly by the Master Partnership and its affiliates, and fees paid to
persons or entities who assist in identifying and recruiting Portfolio Managers and
other personnel;
• expenses related to computers, equipment and technology (including,
without limitation, information technology hardware and software and third-party
software licensing, implementation, data management and recovery services and
custom development costs);

expenses related to maintaining offices, including leases, fixtures and
leasehold improvements;
insurance premiums, including, without limitation, for general partner
liability insurance, directors and officers/errors and omissions insurance, casualty
and property, cyber liability and other risk-specific insurance, and "key-man" life
insurance on certain personnel (including Mr. Englander);
financing costs, exchange fees and expenses, brokerage fees and expenses,
expenses relating to short sales, clearing and settlement charges, custodial fees,
bank service fees and interest expenses, research- and market data-related fees and
expenses, telecommunications, travel expenses, and other expenses related to the
investment activities of the Master Partnership;
accounting and valuation expenses, audit and tax (including withholding
tax) expenses, expenses of the Fund's administrator, legal expenses, fees and
expenses of other advisors, expenses related to preparing and making regulatory
and compliance filings associated with the Master Partnership, Millennium and
their affiliates and their respective investment and other activities, such as filing
fees and costs of software and systems relating to such filings and other
administrative and operating expenses, and costs related to investor reporting and
preparation and updating of investor disclosures;
fees and expenses paid for the investment advisory services of affiliated
entities that participate in the management of the Master Partnership's assets
(including, without limitation, the advancement of certain regulatory capital and
expenses for the Foreign Advisers) (see "Related-Party Transactions and Other
Accounts; Conflicts — Inter-company Loans") and other similar entities that may be
established from time to time in the future; and
other miscellaneous expenses.
Master Partnership expenses generally are bornepro rata by the Feeder Funds, but
a particular expense may be allocated differently if Millennium determines that it would
be fair and reasonable to do so under the circumstances. From time to time, the expenses
described above borne by the Master Partnership (and, in turn, allocated to the Feeder
Funds) may be attributable to efforts by Millennium and its personnel to expand or
otherwise modify the activities of the Feeder Funds or other investment vehicles, or to
develop new or alternative investment strategies or potential new Feeder Funds or other
similar investment vehicles (regardless of whether such strategies or investment vehicles
are ultimately pursued or established). In addition, expenses may arise in connection with
projects that have the potential to benefit both the Master Partnership (and/or a particular
Feeder Fund) and Millennium. In determining what expenses are allocable to the Master
Partnership, where Millennium is also providing services to Other Accounts (as defined
herein) or otherwise in connection with the activities of Millennium (including when a
project may benefit Millennium as well as the Master Partnership (and/or a particular
Feeder Fund)), the need to allocate common expenses may present a conflict. Millennium
II-66
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004069
EFTA00239401
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
will attempt to mitigate such conflicts by making allocations and other judgments on a
basis that it believes to be fair and reasonable under the circumstances, although it may not
be possible to fully or partially mitigate each such conflict, and such conflicts will not
necessarily be resolved in favor of the investors. See "Related-Party Transactions and
Other Accounts; Conflicts."
Assets of Millennium, including, without limitation, intellectual property
developed in connection with services provided to the Feeder Funds and the Master
Partnership, may be utilized in the conduct of other business activities in the sole discretion
ofMillennium without compensation or reimbursement to the Feeder Funds or the Master
Partnership, including (without limitation) reimbursement of the costs incurred in the
development of such assets, but subject to the appropriate allocation of ongoing expenses
related to such utilization in accordance with Millennium's expense allocation policies as
in effect from time to time.
Related-Party Transactions and Other Accounts; Conflicts
Conflicts of interest among the Fund (and investors in the Feeder Funds),
Millennium and Millennium's principals may and do exist, which conflicts include, but are
not limited to, those described herein.
Changes ofControl and Certain Related-Parry Transactions
Millennium, on behalf of the Fund's investors, is authorized to select one or more
persons not affiliated with Millennium, including without limitation unaffiliated directors
of a Feeder Fund, to serve on a committee as may be established from time to time in the
future, the purpose of which is to consider and, on behalf of the Fund and its investors,
approve or disapprove, to the extent required by applicable law or deemed advisable by
Millennium, principal transactions, other related-party transactions and other transactions
and matters involving potential conflicts of interest, including without limitation changes
in control of Millennium and its affiliates. Such committee may approve of such matters
prior to or contemporaneous with, or ratify such transactions subsequent to, the
consummation of such matters. The person(s) so selected may be exculpated and
indemnified by the Fund in the same manner and to the same extent as Millennium is.
Personal Trading
As Millennium's related persons have in the past and may in the future invest in
the same securities (including options, warrants, futures, etc.) in which the Fund invests
based on Millennium's and its related persons' investment advice, potential conflicts of
interest may arise. Millennium has adopted policies and procedures relating to personal
trading by all personnel—including personnel of its affiliates—which are administered by
the Compliance Department. Among other things, these policies and procedures include a
pre-approval requirement for personal transactions (with certain limited exceptions,
including broad-based indices and mutual funds) ofall personnel. These requirements may
be and in certain cases, after consideration, have been waived by Millennium. Portfolio
Managers generally are not permitted to hold positions that are identical or similar to the
positions held in the portfolios they manage for the Fund. Such a situation could provide
II-67
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004070
EFTA00239402
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
an incentive for a Portfolio Manager to trade in a way that would be advantageous to him
or her personally but that would not be expected to have a positive effect on (and could
even be adverse to) the Fund. Consideration of such matters is a factor in the Compliance
Department's decision as to whether permission will be granted for any particular
transaction.
In addition, members of Millennium's management may (with prior Compliance
Department approval) trade for their own accounts. From time to time these activities may
come into conflict with Millennium's business; if such a conflict were to arise,
Millennium's management personnel would generally be required to subordinate the
interests of any other parties (or their own interests) to the Fund, and in any event would
be required to disclose the conflicts. Millennium will endeavor to resolve any such
conflicts in a manner that is fair and reasonable. Additionally, Millennium or its principal
may (with prior Compliance approval) from time to time make an investment in another
private fund and take an interest in such fund's management company or have a role in the
management of such fund. Millennium will address, under the supervision of the CLEO
Committee (described below) or any successor body thereto, any conflicts of interest that
arise from such a situation in a manner Millennium believes to be fair and equitable under
the circumstances.
Other Accounts or Activities
Millennium does, and may in the future, create, sponsor or provide investment
management, administrative or other services to funds, accounts, clients or other
investment structures that do not invest in, and are not for the benefit of, directly or
indirectly, the Master Partnership or the Feeder Funds (any such fund, account or other
investment structure, including the WMQS Accounts (as defined below), an "Other
Account", and, collectively, "Other Accounts") and to engage in other activities unrelated
to the Fund. Numerous potential conflicts that exist for Millennium in providing services
to the Fund as well as any Other Accounts to which it provides services now or in the
future. The nature and extent of such conflicts depend in part on the specific activities
undertaken by Millennium and, if applicable, on the fee and expense structure of Other
Accounts, or the potential benefits or costs to Millennium, relative to that of the Fund.
Other conflicts include the need to allocate common expenses and investment opportunities
and other resources, and the diversion of time and attention of management, as well as
competition for investment and management talent. Millennium will attempt to mitigate
such conflicts, under the ultimate supervision of the CLEO Committee or any successor
body thereto, by making allocations and other judgments on a basis that it believes to be
fair and reasonable under the circumstances, although it may not be possible fully or even
partially to mitigate each such conflict, and such conflicts will not necessarily be resolved
in favor of investors in the Fund.
Allocation ofInvestment Strategies andInvestments to andAmong the Feeder Funds and
Other Accounts; ConflictingInvestment Opportunities; Cross Transactions
In addition to the Feeder Funds and certain related entities through which the
Portfolio Managers invest, Millennium has established, and may in the future establish,
11-68
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004071
EFTA00239403
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Other Accounts that have investment programs similar to that of the Fund or that invest
similarly to the Fund's portfolio or certain of its strategies, while certain Other Accounts,
such as the WMQS Accounts, have different investment programs.
The Fund and Other Accounts do not currently, but may in the future, make certain
investments in tandem with each other. A conflict arises when allocating transaction prices
and expenses where multiple entities purchase or sell the same or substantially similar
investment positions.
Millennium may determine, in accordance with any investment allocation policies
adopted by Millennium, as updated from time to time, which would likely be without notice
to investors (the "Investment Allocation Policy and Procedures"), that a particular
investment strategy, investment opportunity, or investment with a particular Portfolio
Manager, is appropriate for one or more Other Accounts, but not for the Fund, or vice
versa, in which case that investment may not be allocated to the Fund, or Other Account
(or Other Accounts), as applicable. Similarly in the case of the Fund, Millennium may
elect to allocate a particular investment or opportunity to one or more Feeder Funds, but
not to others, by allocating income or loss from the investment or opportunity away from
the other Feeder Funds directly or at the Master Partnership level. In some instances,
investment strategies or investment opportunities that might have been available to and
suitable for the Fund may instead be utilized for or placed with an Other Account or may
be utilized or made by Millennium, or vice versa, and there is (i) no requirement that the
Fund or any Other Account receive any preference or priority with respect to investment
strategies or investment opportunities and (ii) no limitation on the Fund or any Other
Account receiving such preference or priority in accordance with the Investment Allocation
Policies and Procedures.
WorldQuant, LLC ("WorldQuant"), a Relying Adviser, serves as a Portfolio
Manager for the Fund and Other Accounts that Millennium manages, specifically as the
sole Portfolio Manager for a number of investment vehicles (such Other Accounts advised
by WorldQuant or its affiliates from time to time, the "WMQS Accounts"). Investment
strategies developed by WorldQuant are allocated between the WMQS Accounts and the
Fund based on their respective investment programs in accordance with the Investment
Allocation Policy and Procedures. Specifically, Millennium has established allocation
criteria for WorldQuant strategies that reflect a determination of those strategies which in
the aggregate are, or are not, appropriate for the Fund based on, among other factors,
Millennium's (including WorldQuant's) assessment of the characteristics of the strategies
and the current risk and return profile applicable to the Fund and such other considerations
as Millennium deems relevant. Other considerations for permitting strategies to be
allocated to the WMQS Accounts may include its simulated market impact (or lack thereof)
on the Fund. Further, the strategies utilized for the benefit of the Other Accounts, including
the WMQS Accounts, could have a market impact that negatively correlates with the
Fund's returns and, if utilized for the Fund, could potentially have improved (or detracted
from) the overall returns of the Fund. The above allocation criteria may be changed from
time to time in Millennium's sole discretion if it determines that such changes are
appropriate in light of changes in circumstances or otherwise in accordance with the
Investment Allocation Policy and Procedures. For example, to the extent Millennium
II-69
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004072
EFTA00239404
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
changes the investment program of the WMQS Accounts, and in particular its risk and
return profile for strategies developed by WorldQuant, these allocation criteria may be
revised without prior notice to investors. Additionally, the approach to allocating strategies
described above may change materially over time. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, certain strategies may be utilized for the Fund and the WMQS Accounts in
proportions to be determined in accordance with the Investment Allocation Policy and
Procedures. The determination at a given time not to allocate certain strategies to the Fund
is not an indication that strategies having similar attributes are not currently, or will not in
the future be, utilized on behalf of the Fund. As discussed above, strategy allocations will
be made based in large part on simulated results. Simulated performance of a strategy does
not guarantee similar performance in production, which may be, and often is, materially
different. While the simulation process is designed to be objective, methodologies used to
conduct simulations may be, and often are, adjusted over time, which may result in
different and potentially less favorable allocations than if such adjustments were not made.
In general, where an investment opportunity or investment with a particular
Portfolio Manager is not allocated to the Fund or a particular Other Account, the net result
will be to provide the applicable Other Accounts (and their investors) with all of the
benefits (and risks) of that opportunity and, as a result, the returns realized by one Other
Account may differ from those of the others. Other Accounts may also attract investors'
capital away from the Fund, which may result in the Fund's having a smaller investor base,
thereby increasing the proportionate share of expenses to investors in the Fund (and,
therefore, investors in the Feeder Funds).
While Millennium intends to manage potential conflicts of interest in good faith,
the portfolio strategies employed by Millennium and its affiliates in managing Other
Accounts could conflict with the transactions and strategies employed by Millennium in
managing the Fund and may affect the prices and availability of the securities and
instruments in which the Fund invests. The Fund may invest in financial instruments in
which an Other Account has already invested or is expected to invest. There can be no
assurance that the Other Accounts will invest on the same terms, or will invest and divest
at the same time, as the Fund. The Fund and an Other Account may make separate
investments in the same issuer, in which case the terms of the Fund's investment, including
the type of security purchased, may be different from the terms of such Other Account's
investment or the type of security that the Other Account purchases (or the level at which
the investment is made in an issuer's capital structure). Conflicts could arise after an Other
Account on the one hand, and the Fund on the other hand, make separate investments in
the same financial instrument with respect to the manner and timing of the Fund's exit from
the investment compared to such Other Account's exit. Should an Other Account invest
in a different type of security from the security purchased by the Fund, additional conflicts
may arise, particularly if the issuer experiences financial difficulties.
There may also be certain strategies or investment sectors in which the portfolio
managers of Other Accounts are already invested that, as a result, the Fund may be
restricted from participating in, or vice versa, because of applicable regulatory, reporting,
tax or similar requirements or as a result of internal policies or preferences. In addition,
Other Accounts, including the Feeder Funds, do not currently, but may in the future, invest
II-70
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004073
EFTA00239405
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
directly in certain vehicles in which the Master Partnership invests, which raises additional
conflicts. The potential for such conflicts of interest to exist may be exacerbated if
Millennium receives a higher rate of compensation in respect of such investment from
certain Other Accounts than others, including the Fund. In all cases, it is intended that
participation in investment opportunities or with a particular Portfolio Manager will be
allocated on a fair and equitable basis over time.
The Master Partnership's master-feeder structure may create a conflict of interest
in that different tax considerations for the Master Partnership and the Feeder Funds may
cause the Master Partnership to structure or dispose of an investment in a manner that
provides more advantageous tax treatment, or different returns, to one or more Feeder
Funds than to the other Feeder Funds. Additionally, a Feeder Fund may trade and invest
part of its capital for its own account, when presented with investment opportunities that
Millennium believes are appropriate for it and its investors but that are not appropriate or
not optimal (for tax or other reasons) for direct or indirect investors in the Master
Partnership.
Millennium, including Mr. Englander, may, and typically does, have a
disproportionate investment in one or more of the Feeder Funds and may, therefore, benefit
from any benefit derived disproportionately by that Feeder Fund. The same may be true
in connection with an investment in an Other Account.
Millennium may engage in a cross transaction between the Fund and Other
Accounts, including, for example, in connection with the establishment of an Other
Account, termination of an Other Account, or the periodic rebalancing of positions if
Millennium determines that such cross transaction is fair, equitable and in the best interest
of both accounts.
Other conflicts may arise in connection with the management of multiple clients.
Millennium seeks to resolve conflicts on a fair and equitable basis, which in some instances
might mean a resolution that would not maximize the benefit to any particular client,
including the Fund.
Allocation ofExpenses AmongFeeder Funds, Other Accounts and/or Other Activities of
Millennium
Millennium seeks to allocate expenses (including, without limitation, the
compensation and related expenses of Millennium personnel, expenses for office space,
equipment and software, among other things) incurred in connection with the provision of
investment management, administrative or other services by Millennium and its affiliates
among the Feeder Funds, Other Accounts and Millennium in a manner it considers fair and
reasonable under the circumstances based on certain estimates and assumptions that it
believes to be reasonable and appropriate. However, such estimates and assumptions may
be imprecise and may result in a Feeder Fund bearing a larger portion of such expenses
than if they were calculated in a different manner. The allocation of expenses is determined
in accordance with expense allocation policies and related procedures adopted by
Millennium, as updated from time to time without notice to investors (the "Expense
II-71
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004074
EFTA00239406
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Allocation Policy and Procedures"), which are intended to create, to the extent practical,
a framework for the effective mitigation of conflicts related to the allocation of expenses.
Expenses related to the Fund are generally borne pro rata by the Feeder Funds, but
a particular expense may be allocated differently if Millennium determines that it would
be fair and reasonable to do so in accordance with our Expense Allocation Policy and
Procedures. In considering whether to allocate an expense to certain Feeder Funds or pro
rata among all the Feeder Funds, or whether to allocate an expense between the Fund and
an Other Account or to Millennium, Millennium will consider factors such as whether such
expense might ultimately directly or indirectly benefit one or more Feeder Funds or Other
Accounts other than the initial beneficiary, whether such expense is de minimis in nature,
and/or whether the expense is associated with determining and administering such
allocation would be disproportionate relative to the actual expense to be allocated.
Advising Other Accounts, or engaging in other business activities, raises a number
of potential conflicts of interest related to the allocation of expenses. The nature and extent
of such conflicts depend on the specific activities undertaken by the Other Accounts and
the fee and expense structure of the Other Accounts relative to that of the Feeder Funds.
For instance, investors in the Feeder Fund, which has an expense pass-through
arrangement, generally bear all expenses incurred by or allocated to such Feeder Fund,
while investors in Other Accounts, such as the WMQS Accounts, generally bear more
limited expenses. In general, given the potential for there to be greater differentials in the
level of utilization of any shared resources or services as among the Master Partnership
and the Feeder Funds relative to Other Accounts or activities, the allocation of expenses
associated with such resources or services have the potential to be more complex than the
allocation of shared expenses solely among the Feeder Funds.
The Expense Allocation Policy and Procedures are intended to establish an
equitable (and administratively practical) approach to allocating shared expenses among
the Feeder Funds, Other Accounts and Millennium, under the ultimate supervision of the
CLEO Committee or any successor body. While it is generally not possible to precisely
determine the portion of a shared resource that was utilized for the benefit of a particular
product, account or project, the methodologies utilized in the Expense Allocation Policy
and Procedures are intended to establish a reasonable basis for approximating such
utilization. The methodologies employed may include, among others, allocating based on:
(i) an average cost basis (i.e., allocating total expenses based on a reasonable estimate of
proportionate utilization) or a marginal cost basis (i.e., charging for the incremental cost of
additional utilization); (ii) independent third-party pricing for comparable transactions,
goods or services; (iii) one or more subjective measures of the relative capital associated
with the Feeder Fund or Other Account (which measures may reflect a number of factors,
including, without limitation, a Feeder Fund's or Other Account's investment structure and
strategy, and, in the case of a particular Feeder Fund or Other Account that is not yet
accepting investments from third parties, may reflect an estimate of the capital expected to
be associated with such Feeder Fund or Other Account once it matures); and/or (iv) an
approximation of the relative amount of time spent by Millennium personnel performing
services on behalf of Millennium or a Feeder Fund or an Other Account or in respect of a
particular product, in which case the associated compensation expense may be determined
II-72
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004075
EFTA00239407
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
by calculating an average compensation figure across a particular department or function
and/or over a certain time period.
Any methodologies used to determine an allocation of expenses will necessarily
involve estimates (including, for example, when determining the allocation of a particular
resource across different services) and subjective judgments about the most appropriate
methodology to use to allocate a particular expense and it is possible that there may be
other reasonable (and potentially more precise) methods for allocating any particular item
of expense, including methods that could have resulted in less (or more) expense being
borne by the Feeder Funds or a particular Feeder Fund or the Other Accounts than those
which have been selected.
Additional Activities
Mr. Englander has a minority, passive interest in a non-Millennium broker-dealer,
Israel A. Englander & Co., Inc ("Englander & Co."). To the extent that the Fund or a
Portfolio Manager employs the services ofEnglander & Co., this could constitute a conflict
ofinterest for Mr. Englander. However, the Fund currently does not engage in any business
with Englander & Co.
The principal and certain employees of WorldQuant may invest, and have invested,
directly or indirectly, in certain types of early-stage and other illiquid private companies.
WorldQuant, from time to time, uses the services of such companies in connection with
the operation of its business, including the portfolio management services it provides to the
Fund. While this may give rise to actual or potential conflicts of interest, Millennium has
policies and procedures in place and seeks to take appropriate steps to mitigate any actual
or potential conflicts of interest.
Millennium may from time to time manage Other Accounts that may invest in the
Fund and Other Accounts, which may include Other Accounts established for the benefit
of the principals ofMillennium or their family members.
Millennium may from time to time conduct other businesses (with prior approval
of the Compliance Department or CLEO Committee (or any successor body)), including,
without limitation, the provision of investment management, administrative or other
services to Other Accounts or third parties and may expand the extent to which Millennium
provides such services to others. Millennium intends to address any conflicts of interest
that arise from such situations in a manner Millennium believes to be fair and equitable
under the circumstances.
Assets of Millennium and its affiliates, including, without limitation, intellectual
property developed in connection with services provided to the Fund, may be utilized in
the conduct ofother business activities in the sole discretion ofMillennium and its affiliates
without compensation or reimbursement to the Feeder Funds, including (without
limitation) reimbursement of the costs incurred in the development of such assets, but
subject to the appropriate allocation of ongoing expenses in accordance with Millennium's
expense allocation policies as in effect from time to time. Mr. Englander and the other
II-73
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004076
EFTA00239408
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
principals of Millennium devote to the Fund so much of their time as, in their respective
judgments, is necessary or appropriate in connection with the Fund's activities.
Portfolio Manager Investment in Own Strategies
As indicated above, certain Portfolio Managers, including those that are Relying
Advisers, and related personnel, have invested and others may in the future invest in
entities through which they are able to achieve the same rate of return that is achieved by
their own strategies. Millennium believes that permitting Portfolio Managers and related
personnel to do this is useful in aligning their interests with those of investors in the Feeder
Funds; however, this could lead to potential conflicts of interest. The determination of the
Portfolio Manager's capital base, which determination may utilize different methodologies
depending on the underlying portfolio, and therefore rate of return, involves significant
elements of subjective judgment and analysis. Additionally, the Portfolio Managers, and
related personnel, bear the expenses directly related to the trading of the account they
manage on behalf of the Fund, but do not bear other general Fund expenses or any
performance- or asset-based fees. Therefore, the rate of return achieved by such Portfolio
Managers may be higher than the rate the Fund achieves for the same strategy after taking
into account such fees and expenses.
Ownership Influence
Persons related to or affiliated with Millennium (including Mr. Englander, senior
officers, various Portfolio Managers, and other Millennium employees and consultants)
hold, through a variety of direct and indirect investment channels (including deferred
compensation), a relatively large portion ofthe capital of the Fund. There are no limitations
on the ability to dispose of or transfer such interests, or otherwise modify the ownership
structure of any of the Millennium entities, except to the extent limited by law, regulation
or the terms of the applicable interests.
From time to time, individuals affiliated with the Fund have in the past become
aware of and purchased (and may in the future become aware of and purchase) interests in
the Feeder Funds (or other entities managed by Millennium) that were (or are) available
for transfer from other holders at prices less than net asset value because of limitations
affecting the redemption or withdrawal of the interests at the time.
Leveraged Investments
The principals and senior officers of Millennium indirectly invest in, or have an
interest in the returns of, the Fund through a number of channels. Some of these
investments are leveraged through the extension of credit by a third party to a Feeder Fund
(structured in a manner that is intended to be non-recourse to the Fund). In connection
with structuring the investments, the third parties typically make an investment in a class
of interests in one of the Feeder Funds that is entitled to more favorable liquidation and
other rights under certain circumstances, which may increase the risk of redemptions, and
result in redemptions at times when other investors in the Feeder Funds are unable to effect
redemptions, if there are specified declines in the net asset value of the relevant Feeder
II-74
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004077
EFTA00239409
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Fund or a termination of the financial arrangement with the third party due to the
occurrence of events of default. In addition, other similar structures may be formed in the
future. While Millennium believes that in substantially all situations these kinds of
relationships are useful in aligning the interests of management with those of investors in
the Feeder Funds, they could lead to situations in which the interests of management
diverge from those of other investors.
Conflicts Related to Millennium HavingInvestments in Other Management Companies
Although Millennium has not done so to date, Millennium could in the future
acquire an interest in a management company formed by an independent Portfolio Manager
(including one who was previously a Millennium employee or Relying Adviser) to which
assets of the Fund are allocated. The interest might take various forms, such as shares or
partnership interests in, or an economic interest in the revenues of, the Portfolio Manager's
management company. If such a situation were to arise, Millennium may have an
economic incentive to favor such a Portfolio Manager over other Portfolio Managers.
Additionally, family members of the principal or other members of senior management
may be employed by Millennium or have an interest in the management company of a
Portfolio Manager to which the Master Partnership currently allocates capital.
Custody/Commingling ofProperty
Investment assets ofthe Fund required to be custodied are held by third party prime
brokers and custodians. Millennium does not currently commingle the investment assets
of the Fund with the property of any other person, although (i) specified assets may be
pooled in a side-by-side co-investment arrangement with another entity, which may include
the Fund or its affiliates or of a Portfolio Manager, and (ii) the investment assets of the
Fund may be commingled by those firms which act as brokers, futures commission
merchants and custodians for the Fund or the Portfolio Managers.
Hedging Activities Related to Shares ofFeeder Funds Not Denominatedin U.S. Dollars
One of the Feeder Funds has issued Non-USD Shares, and the Feeder Funds may
in the future offer other interests which have different functional currencies or reference
assets. As with the Non-USD Shares, the terms of such interests may provide that the
applicable Feeder Fund may seek to hedge the exposure of such interests to minimize, to
the extent practicable, fluctuations in the value of such shares arising from the fluctuations
in the applicable exchange rates or reference assets price relative to the U.S. dollar. Such
hedging may be undertaken by the Fund on behalf of the applicable Feeder Fund, with the
applicable Feeder Fund (and, within the Feeder Fund, the affected shares) being allocated
the profits and losses, including expenses, associated with such activity. The capital of the
Fund may be used to satisfy any margin requirements associated with hedging activities
and a financing charge would be allocated to the capital account of the applicable Feeder
Fund (which would, in turn, be allocated to the relevant hedged interests) at a rate based
on prevailing rates charged to the Fund, as determined by Millennium in its sole discretion,
which rates would likely be less than rates that would be available to investors in such
interests if they sought to obtain financing for such activities directly. Although the Fund
II-75
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004078
EFTA00239410
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
anticipates having excess cash available to satisfy margin requirements, to the extent that
this changes and/or the amount of cash necessary to satisfy margin requirements increases
substantially, cash that would otherwise be available for investment by the Fund may be
used for such purposes, which could adversely impact the returns of the Fund.
Alternatively, the applicable Feeder Fund may engage in hedging activities directly, in
which case the Fund may advance cash to the applicable Feeder Fund in order to satisfy
margin requirements. Any such transactions will raise similar considerations to those
described above.
Inter-Company Loans
Each of the Foreign Advisers is owned by Millennium International Management.
The capital to establish, capitalize and maintain these entities has been loaned to
Millennium International Management by the Master Partnership. The loans are secured
by Millennium International Management's interest in the shares of each entity. If the
loans become due and payable and have not been paid, the Master Partnership is
authorized, among other things, to transfer the shares to itself or to sell the shares (and the
assets of the relevant entity) and apply the proceeds toward the discharge of the loans.
These loans have been structured in a way that seeks to ensure that Millennium
International Management does not receive any additional pecuniary benefit from owning
these entities. The ownership structure of these entities may change from time to time
without notice.
These inter-company loans in the aggregate currently represent less than I% of the
net asset value of the Master Partnership. These inter-company loans are exclusively for
the benefit of the Master Partnership and are not for the benefit of the General Partner or
its principals or affiliates. Under the terms of the Master Partnership's governing
documents, the Master Partnership is obligated to reimburse all costs, fees and expenses
incurred in managing the assets of the Master Partnership, including the costs, fees and
expenses associated with the offices of the Foreign Advisers. As a result, these inter-
company loans are an advancement of regulatory capital and expenses that would
otherwise be incurred by the Master Partnership, and do not result in any increased costs
to the Master Partnership.
The Fund may enter into similarly structured inter-company loans or other similar
arrangements to facilitate the Fund's investment activities, including in other jurisdictions,
in the future.
Compliance, Legal andEthics Oversight (CLEO) Committee
The CLEO Committee is responsible for reviewing firm-wide compliance, legal
and ethics issues throughout Millennium's business as they arise, and investigating
(directly or indirectly) possible breaches of compliance, legal or ethical duties, rules,
policies or procedures committed by any of Millennium's employees or agents or persons
acting on their behalf.

AND DISPOSING OF INTERESTS, AS WELL AS THE EFFECTS OF TAX LAWS OF
THE JURISDICTIONS OF WHICH THEY ARE CITIZENS, RESIDENTS OR
DOMICILIARIES OR IN WHICH THEY CONDUCT BUSINESS.
There is, at present, no direct taxation in the Cayman Islands and interest, dividends
and gains payable to the Master Partnership will be received free of all Cayman Islands
taxes. The Master Partnership is registered as an "exempted limited partnership" pursuant
to the Exempted Limited Partnership Law (as amended). The Master Partnership has
received an undertaking from the Governor in Cabinet of the Cayman Islands dated
November 28, 2000 to the effect that, for a period of fifty years from such date, no law that
thereafter is enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax or duty to be levied on profits,
income or on gains or appreciation, or any tax in the nature of estate duty or inheritance
tax, will apply to any property comprised in or any income arising under the Master
Partnership, or to the investors thereof, in respect of any such property or income.
Identity andReporting ofBeneficial Ownership: Withholding on Certain Payments
In order to avoid a U.S. withholding tax of 30% on certain payments (including
payments of gross proceeds) made with respect to certain actual and deemed U.S.
investments, the Master Partnership has registered with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service
(the "Service") and generally will be required to identify, and report information with
respect to, certain direct and indirect U.S. account holders (including debtholders and
equityholders). The Cayman Islands has signed a Model 1B (non-reciprocal) inter-
governmental agreement with the United States (the "U.S. IGA") to give effect to the
foregoing withholding and reporting rules. So long as the Master Partnership complies
with the U.S. WA and the Cayman Islands enabling legislation, it will not be subject to the
related U.S. withholding tax.
A non-U.S. investor in the Master Partnership will generally be required to provide
to the Master Partnership information which identifies its direct and indirect U.S.
ownership. Under the U.S. IGA, any such information provided to the Master Partnership
and certain financial information related to such investor's investment in the Master
Partnership will be shared with the Cayman Islands Tax Information Authority or its
delegate (the "Cayman TIA"). The Cayman TIA will exchange the information reported
to it with the Service annually on an automatic basis. A non-U.S. investor that is a "foreign
II-77
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004080
EFTA00239412
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
financial institution" within the meaning of Section 1471(dX4) of the Code will generally
be required to timely register with the Service and agree to identify, and report information
with respect to, certain of its own direct and indirect U.S. account holders (including
debtholders and equityholders). A non-U.S. investor who fails to provide such information
to the Master Partnership or timely register and agree to identify, and report information
with respect to, such account holders (as applicable) may be subject to the 30% withholding
tax with respect to its share of any such payments attributable to actual and deemed U.S.
investments of the Master Partnership, and the General Partner may take any action in
relation to an investor's Interests or redemption proceeds to ensure that such withholding
is economically borne by the relevant investor whose failure to provide the necessary
information or comply with such requirements gave rise to the withholding. Partners
should consult their own tax advisors regarding the possible implications of these rules on
their investments in the Master Partnership.
Cayman Islands - Automatic Exchange ofFinancial Account Information
The Cayman Islands has signed an inter-governmental agreement to improve
international tax compliance and the exchange of information with the United (the "U.S.
IGA"). The Cayman Islands has also signed, along with over 100 other countries, a
multilateral competent authority agreement to implement the Organisation for Economic
Cooperation and Development's Standard for Automatic Exchange of Financial Account
Information — Common Reporting Standard (the "CRS" and together with the U.S. IGA,
"AEOI").
The Cayman Islands has issued regulations to give effect to the AEOI regime (the
"AEOI Regulations"). Pursuant to the AEOI Regulations, the Cayman TIA has published
guidance notes on the application of the U.S. IGA and the CRS.
All Cayman Islands "Financial Institutions" are required to comply with the
registration, due diligence and reporting requirements of the AEOI Regulations, unless they
are able to rely on an exemption that allows them to become a "Non-Reporting Financial
Institution" (as defined in the relevant AEO1 Regulations) with respect to one or more of
the AEOI regimes, in which case only the registration requirement would apply under the
CRS. The Master Partnership does not propose to rely on any reporting exemption and
therefore intends to comply with the requirements of the AEOI Regulations.
The AEOI Regulations require the Master Partnership to, amongst other things, (i)
register with the Service; (ii) register with the Cayman TIA, and thereby notify the Cayman
TIA of its status as a "Reporting Financial Institution"; (iii) adopt and implement written
policies and procedures setting out how it will address its obligations under the CRS; (iv)
conduct due diligence on its accounts to identify whether any such accounts are considered
"Reportable Accounts"; and (v) annually report information on such Reportable Accounts
to the Cayman TIA. The Cayman TIA will transmit the information reported to it to the
overseas fiscal authority relevant to a Reportable Account (e.g., the Service in the case of
a U.S. Reportable Account) annually on an automatic basis.

and Reporting of Beneficial Ownership; Withholding on Certain Payments" above.
By investing in the Master Partnership and/or continuing to invest in the Master
Partnership, investors shall be deemed to acknowledge that further information may need
to be provided to the Master Partnership, the Master Partnership's compliance with the
AEOI Regulations may result in the disclosure of investor information, and investor
information may be exchanged with overseas fiscal authorities. Where an investor fails to
provide any requested information (regardless of the consequences), the Master
Partnership reserves the right to take any action and/or pursue all remedies at its disposal
including, without limitation, compulsory redemption or withdrawal of the investor
concerned.
Other Jurisdictions
Tax disclosures relevant to an investment in a particular Feeder Fund have been
included in Part One of the applicable version of this Confidential Memorandum.
Certain Legal and Regulatory Matters Relating to the Fund
U.S. Investment Company Act
As entities that are engaged primarily in the business of "investing, reinvesting, or
trading in securities," the Feeder Funds and the Fund would likely fall within the definition
of "investment company" found in the Investment Company Act. The Investment
Company Act imposes technical, complex, and extensive substantive regulations of the
activities of an investment company (including obligations and restrictions relating to
organization, corporate governance, disclosure, asset allocation, and investment
diversification) and prohibits an investment company from offering or selling securities in
the U.S. unless it is registered under the Investment Company Act. However, each of the
Feeder Funds and the Master Partnership is excluded from the definition of "investment
company" under the Investment Company Act pursuant to Section 3(cX7) of that act, and
they therefore are not subject to its provisions.
U.S. Investment Advisers Act
The General Partner is registered as an investment adviser with the SEC under the
U.S. Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended and certain affiliates of the General
Partner and certain Portfolio Managers are "Relying Advisers" who rely on the General
Partner's registration as an investment adviser.
The SEC's headquarters are located at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, D.C. 20549,
Tel. (202) 942-8088. The SEC's website is www.sec.gov.
U.S. Commodity Exchange Act
The Master Partnership and each of the Feeder Funds is classified as a "commodity
pool" under the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the "CEA"), and each of the
II-79
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004082
EFTA00239414
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
General Partner, Millennium International Management and Millennium Global Estate GP
is registered with the CFTC as a commodity pool operator ("CPO"), as a commodity
trading advisor ("CTA") and is a member of the U.S. National Futures Association. In
addition, Mr. Englander, the ultimate control person of each of the General Partner,
Millennium International Management and Millennium Global Estate GP, is registered
under the CEA as an associated person and a principal of each of the General Partner,
Millennium International Management and Millennium Global Estate GP. However,
because interests in each Feeder Fund and in the Master Partnership are offered and sold
only to "qualified eligible persons" (as defined in the CEA) in offerings exempt from
registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) or Regulation S thereunder,
the General Partner, Millennium International Management and Millennium Global Estate
GP are not required under the CEA to provide any disclosure document to investors and
are granted significant relief from the periodic reporting and recordkeeping requirements
of the CEA.
The Fund fulfills its initial margin requirements with respect to commodity interests
subject to CFTC jurisdiction by delivering cash, or to the extent permitted by the rules of
the exchange on which a position is being maintained, by delivering securities. Any
income generated from Fund securities posted as margin will be received by the Master
Partnership and allocated among the partners in the Master Partnership (including the
Feeder Funds) in the same manner as is provided in the Partnership Agreement for items
of income. Any variation margin required to be furnished by the Fund from time to time
will be satisfied solely through the delivery of cash or other acceptable collateral.
The CFTC's main office is located at Three Lafayette Centre, 1155 21" Street, NW,
Washington, D.C. 20581, Tel. (202) 418-5000. The CFTC's website is www.cftc.gov.
U.S. Securities Exchange Act
Institutional Investment Manager. The Master Partnership and a number of its
affiliates qualify as "institutional investment managers" under Section 13(f) of the
Exchange Act and, accordingly, are required to file quarterly "Form 13F" position reports
with the SEC. These reports are available through the SEC's EDGAR database, which can
be accessed through the SEC's web site (www.sec.gov).
Broker-Dealer and Other Similar Registrations. Millennium has in the past had a
broker-dealer entity registered under the Exchange Act and may in the future have a broker-
dealer entity registered under the Exchange Act or another similarly regulated entity.
Cayman Islands MutualFunds Law
Pursuant to the Mutual Funds Law (as amended) of the Cayman Islands (the "Law"),
certain "master funds" (as defined in the Mutual Funds Law) are required to be registered
with, and regulated by, the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (the "Monetary
Authority"). The Master Partnership is so registered with the Monetary Authority. As a
regulated "master fund," the Master Partnership is not required to be licensed or employ a
II-80
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004083
EFTA00239415
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
licensed mutual fund administrator, but it is subject to the supervision of the Monetary
Authority.
The Master Partnership must file this Confidential Memorandum and details of any
changes that materially affect any information in this Confidential Memorandum with the
Monetary Authority. The Master Partnership must also file annually with the Monetary
Authority accounts approved by an approved auditor, together with a return containing
particulars specified by the Monetary Authority, within six months of its financial year end
or within such extension of that period as the Monetary Authority may allow. A prescribed
fee must also be paid annually.
In addition to the annual audit, the Monetary Authority may, at any time, instruct the
Master Partnership to have its accounts audited and to submit them to the Monetary Authority
within such time as the Monetary Authority specifies. The Monetary Authority may also ask
the General Partner to give the Monetary Authority such information or such explanation in
respect of the Master Partnership as the Monetary Authority may reasonably require to
enable it to carry out its duty under the Law.
The Monetary Authority shall, whenever it considers it necessary, examine, including
by way of on-site inspections or in such other manner as it may determine, the affairs or
business of the Master Partnership for the purpose of satisfying itself that the provisions of
the Law and applicable anti-money laundering regulations are being complied with.
The General Partner must give the Monetary Authority access to, or provide at any
reasonable time, all records relating to the Master Partnership, and the Monetary Authority
may copy or take an extract of a record it is given access to. Failure to comply with these
requests by the Monetary Authority may result in substantial fines on the part of the General
Partner and may result in the Monetary Authority's applying to the court to have the Master
Partnership wound up.
The Monetary Authority may take certain actions if it is satisfied that a regulated
mutual fund:
(a) is or is likely to become unable to meet its obligations as they fall due;
(b) is carrying on or is attempting to carry on business or is winding up
its business voluntarily in a manner that is prejudicial to its investors
or creditors;
(c) is not being managed in a fit and proper manner, or
(d) has persons appointed as general partner, manager or officer that is
not a fit and proper person to hold the respective position.
The powers of the Monetary Authority include, inter alia, the power to require the
substitution of the General Partner, to appoint a person to advise the Master Partnership on
the proper conduct of its affairs or to appoint a person to assume control of the affairs of the
Master Partnership. There are other remedies available to the Monetary Authority including
II-81
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004084

the ability to cancel the registration of the Master Partnership and to apply to the court for
approval of other actions.
The Monetary Authority's office is located at P.O. Box 10052, 80 Shedden Road,
Elizabethan Square, Grand Cayman KY1-1001, Cayman Islands, Tel. (345) 949-7089. The
Monetary Authority's website is www.cimoney.ky.
Foreign Registrations
A number of the Millennium entities are registered with their local regulators. See
"The Fund's Management, Structure and Operations—Affiliated Relying Advisers."
Stock Farchanges/Self-Regulatory Organizations
By virtue of their exchange memberships, certain Millennium entities are also
subject to oversight by a number of exchanges. In general, such oversight is intended to
protect the markets themselves and a firm's public customers, rather than investors in the
Master Partnership or in the Feeder Funds.
Anti-Money Laundering Regulations
The Master Partnership accepts investments only from (i) the Feeder Funds, (ii)
entities through which Portfolio Managers and related personnel are able to invest in their
strategies and (iii) the General Partner. Accordingly, the Master Partnership relies upon
the Feeder Funds' "know your investor" and similar anti-money-laundering policies and
procedures, described in Part One of the applicable version of this Confidential
Memorandum.
The Master Partnership's Fiscal Year
The fiscal year-end of the Master Partnership is December 31.
The Master Partnership's Independent Public Accountants
The Master Partnership has retained Ernst & Young LLP, 5 Times Square, New
York, New York 10036, certified public accountants, as its auditor.

whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, solely by reason of being a member or
manager of the Fund, as applicable, except that a Member may be obligated to make

withdrawal of all or a portion of such Member's Interest and any other amounts received by
such Member from the Fund during or after the Fiscal Year in which any debt, obligation or

the aggregate Capital Accounts of all Members of the Fund in such Fiscal Year; and
provided further that the provisions of this Section 2.7 shall not affect the obligations of
Members under Section 18-607 of the Delaware Ad.

additional series ("Series"), classes ("Classes"), tranches or sub-classes ("Sub-Classes") of
Interests which may differ in terms of, among other things, denomination of currency, the

Capital Contribution, assets underlying the Class, Sub-Class, tranches or Series and other
terms. There shall be established two Classes of Fund Interests: Class A Interests and Class B
Interests. In respect of each of Class A Interests and Class B Interests there shall be
established two Sub-Classes of Fund Interests: Advisory Sub-Class Interests and Brokerage
Sub-Class Interests. New Series, Classes, tranches or Sub-Classes of Interests may be
established by the Manager without providing notice to, or receiving consent from, the
Members. The terms of such Series, Classes, tranches or Sub-Classes shall be determined by
the Manager in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding any other term or provision contained in
this Agreement, in making allocations pursuant to this Agreement, the terms "Net Profit"
and "Net Loss" shall be interpreted on a Series-by-Series basis, and separate Capital

Interest in any Series, together with (i) all assets in which such consideration is
invested or reinvested, and (ii) all income, earnings, profits and proceeds from such
consideration or assets, including any proceeds derived from the sale, loan,
exchange or liquidation of such assets, and any funds or payments derived from any
reinvestment or such proceeds in whatever form the same may be, shall be
allocated to such Series for all purposes, and shall be so recorded upon the books
of account of each Series. Separate and distinct records shall be maintained for
each Series, and the assets associated with a Series shall be held and accounted for
separately, induding a register of members, if any, from the other assets of the
Fund and each other Series. In the event that there are any assets, income,
earnings, profits and proceeds thereof, funds or payments that are not readily
identifiable as belonging to any particular Series, the Manager shall allocate them
among any one or more of the Series established and designated from time to time
B-8

EFTA00239428
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
in such manner and on such basis as the Manager, in its good faith judgment,
deems fair and equitable.
(b) Series liabilities. The assets belonging to each particular Series shall be charged with
the liabilities of the Fund in respect of such Series and all expenses, costs, charges
and reserves attributable to such Series, and any general liabilities, expenses, costs,
charges or reserves of the Fund that are not readily identifiable as belonging to any
particular Series shall be allocated and charged by the Manager to and among one
or more of the Series in such manner and on such basis as the Manager, in its good
faith judgment, deems fair and equitable. Each such allocation by the Manager shall
be conclusive and binding upon the Members of all Series for all purposes. Without
limiting the foregoing, the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred,
contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular Series shall be
enforceable against the assets of such Series only and not against the assets of the
Fund or other Series generally. Any person extending credit to, contracting with or
otherwise having any claim against any Series may look only to the assets of that
Series to satisfy any such obligation or claim. No Member or former Member of any
Series shall have any claim on or any right to any assets allocated to or belonging to
any other Series. Notice of this limitation on Series liabilities shall be set forth in the
Certificate of Formation as filed in the office of the Secretary of State pursuant to
the Act, and upon the giving of such notice in the Certificate of Formation, the
statutory provisions of Section 18-215 of the Act (and the statutory effect under
Section 18-215 of setting forth such notice in the certificate of formation) shall
become applicable to the Fund and each Series.
(c) Termination of a Series. Any Series may be terminated only upon (i) the written
agreement of the Fund, (ii) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of
the assets of such Series or (iii) the dissolution of the Fund in accordance with

business in respect of such Series except for the purpose of winding up its affairs,
and the Fund shall proceed to wind up the affairs of such Series.
(d) Establishment of Additional Series. In connection with the formation of each
additional Series, the Manager shall approve (and the Fund shall prepare, sign and
deliver to each Member having an Interest in such Series) a schedule to this
Agreement ("Additional Series Schedule") setting forth the name of all Members
having an Interest in such Series, the rights and obligations of such Members with
respect to such Series and such other matters as the Manager shall, in its sole
discretion, determine to be appropriate, advisable or convenient in respect of such
Series. Upon the execution and delivery of a counterpart of each Additional Series
Schedule, each Member listed therein shall have the rights and obligations set forth
in this Agreement as well as on the Additional Series Schedule.

assets of the Fund from being considered "plan assets" under the Plan Assets Rules.
In the event the Manager determines that it is necessary to require the withdrawal
of Benefit Plan Members in order to prevent the assets of the Fund from being
considered "plan assets" under the Plan Assets Rules, it shall require the withdrawal
of all Benefit Plan Members on a pro rata basis (in proportion to their Capital
Accounts), unless it determines in its absolute discretion to require such
withdrawals on a non-pro rata basis in order to facilitate compliance with any other
tax or regulatory requirements of the Fund or for any other reason determined by
the Manager in its absolute discretion to be in the best interest of the Fund.

request for withdrawal of Class A Interests is not satisfied due to the Class A Gate,
the applicable Member will be deemed automatically to have resubmitted a
withdrawal request for the remaining portion of such unsatisfied request as of the
next Withdrawal Date.
(ii) A withdrawal of any Class A Interests prior to the last day of the fourth full fiscal
quarter after the subscription for such Interests will be subject to an early
withdrawal charge (the "Early Withdrawal Charge") equal to 4% of the amount
requested to be withdrawn (regardless of whether the Fund is charged the
corresponding early redemption fee by the Millennium Fund). Any early withdrawal
charge that is charged to the Fund by the Millennium Fund will be allocated pro
rata among such withdrawing Class A Members.
(d) In respect of Class B Interests:
To the extent the Fund has received withdrawal requests in respect of Class B
Interests for any Withdrawal Date aggregating to more than five percent (5%) of
the aggregate net asset value of the Fund attributable to Class B Interests as of such
Withdrawal Date, the Manager may, in its sole and absolute discretion, (i) satisfy all
such withdrawal requests or (ii) reduce all such withdrawal requests, pro rata based
on the requested withdrawal amount of each Member, so that only 5% (or a
higher percentage, in the sole discretion of the Manager) of the aggregate net asset
value of the Fund attributable to Class B Interests as of such Withdrawal Date is
withdrawn as of such date (the "Class B Gate"). To the extent a request for
withdrawal of Class B Interests is not satisfied due to the Class B Gate, the
applicable Member will be deemed automatically to have resubmitted a withdrawal
request for the remaining portion of such unsatisfied request as of the next
Withdrawal Date.
(e) To the extent the Fund is restricted from making withdrawals from the Millennium
Fund in respect of Interests due to a gating or other restriction imposed by the
8-16
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004104
EFTA00239436
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
Millennium Fund, the Manager may, in its sole discretion, reduce the withdrawals
requested by Members pro rata according to the method described in Section 4.3(c)
or 4.3(d), as applicable.
(f) Notice of withdrawal must be received in writing by the Fund no later than the one
hundred and fifth (105th) day preceding the Withdrawal Date upon which any or
all of a Member's Interest may be withdrawn, or upon such other notice period,
which may be longer, as may be notified to the Members, in the Manager's sole
discretion.
(g) Withdrawal proceeds will be distributed as follows:
(i) In the case of withdrawals of 95% or more of the balance of a Member's Capital
Account, an amount equal to 95% of the estimated withdrawal proceeds is
generally expected to be payable to such Member within sixty (60) days after the
applicable Withdrawal Date, and the balance will be paid, subject to audit
adjustment and with interest, within 30 days after the Fund issues its audited
financial statements for the year in which such Withdrawal Date occurred.
(ii) In the case of withdrawals of less than 95% of the balance of a Member's Capital
Account, an amount equal to 100% of the estimated withdrawal proceeds is
generally expected to be payable to such Member within sixty (60) days after the
applicable Withdrawal Date.
(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, amounts held back may be larger and/or paid out
later, in the Manager's sole discretion.
(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager may waive any notice requirements in
its sole discretion; provided that any notice is irrevocable unless otherwise
determined by the Manager. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, once the Fund has commenced liquidation, all withdrawal rights and
requests may be canceled or altered in the Manager's sole discretion.
(j) If the Manager is removed as manager of the Fund pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof,
it (or its trustee, other legal representative or Affiliate) may within sixty (60) days of
the effective date of such termination withdraw all or any portion of its Capital
Account. Not later than thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice, the Fund
shall cause such withdrawn portion of the Capital Account to be paid out in cash.
(k) The Manager may cause the Fund to redeem an Interest or portion thereof of a
Member or any person acquiring an Interest or portion thereof from or through a
Member if the Manager determines or has reason to believe that:
(i) such an Interest or portion thereof has been transferred in violation of Section
4.2 hereof, or such an Interest or portion thereof has vested in any person by
operation of law as the result of the death, dissolution, bankruptcy or
incompetency of a Member;
(ii) ownership of such an Interest by a Member or other person will cause the Fund to
be in violation of, or require registration of any Interest or portion thereof under, or
subject the Fund to additional registration or regulation under, the securities,
commodities or other laws of the United States or any other relevant jurisdiction;
8-17
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004105
EFTA00239437
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
(iii) continued ownership of such an Interest may be harmful or injurious to the
business or reputation of the Fund or the Manager, or may subject the Fund or any
of the Members to an undue risk of adverse tax or other fiscal consequences;
(iv) disposal of any assets of the Fund or other transactions involving the sale, transfer
or delivery of funds, securities or other assets in the ordinary course of the Fund's
business is not reasonably practical without being detrimental to the Interests of the
withdrawing Members or the remaining Members;
(v) any of the representations and warranties made by a Member in connection with
the acquisition of an Interest or portion thereof was not true when made or has
ceased to be true; or
(vi) it would be in the best interests of the Fund, as determined by the Manager, for the
Fund to redeem such an Interest or portion thereof.
(I) Withdrawals of Interests or portions thereof by the Fund shall be funded with cash
or securities. Although the Manager generally expects distributions in connection
with Withdrawals to be made in cash, any such distributions may be in cash, in-
kind, or partly in cash and partly in-kind, in the Manager's sole discretion. The
Manager, in its sole discretion, may subject a Member to a charge in order to defray
the costs and expenses of the Fund in connection with such withdrawal, induding
but not limited to the Early Withdrawal Charge and any amounts paid or accrued
by the Fund vis-à-vis its investment in the Millennium Fund and withdrawal or
similar charges imposed by the Millennium Fund. The Manager may determine to
satisfy a withdrawal request in full, without a holdback, in its discretion.
(m) The amount due to any Member whose interest or portion thereof is withdrawn
shall be equal to the value of such Member's Capital Account or portion thereof
based on the estimated net asset value of the Fund's assets as of the effective date
of withdrawal, after giving effect to all allocations and charges (including the Fee)
to be made to such Member's Capital Account as of such date. All such
withdrawals shall be subject to any and all conditions as the Manager may impose,
including the following:
(i) a Member may not make a partial withdrawal of his, her or its Interest if thereafter
the Capital Account of such Member would be less than $250,000 or such lesser
amount as the Manager in its sole discretion may determine;
(ii) partial withdrawals must be made in increments of not less than $50,000 or such
other amount as the Manager in its sole discretion may determine; and
(iii) the Manager may delay or suspend redemptions for any or no reason, induding
without limitation if (i) the Manager, in its sole discretion, has reasonably
determined that delay or suspension is necessary, prudent or appropriate in
connection with the operation of the Fund or (ii) the Fund's ability to make
withdrawals from the Millennium Fund is suspended, delayed, modified or denied;
(n) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no withdrawal shall be permitted if it would cause
the assets of the Fund to be considered "plan assets" under the Plan Assets Rules.

4.4 Return of Certain Distributions and Withdrawal Proceeds. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if at any time following a withdrawal of all or a
portion of a Capital Account, the Manager determines, in its sole discretion, that the
amount paid to a Member or former Member pursuant to such withdrawal was materially
incorrect for any reason, including but not limited to (i) a determination by the Manager
that the amount paid to the Fund pursuant to a withdrawal from the Millennium Fund was
materially incorrect and the Manager determines, in its sole discretion, that such amount
should be allocated to such Member or former Member, or (ii) a determination by the
Manager, that the calculation of Net Assets was materially incorrect at the time such
amount was paid to such Member or former Member, the Fund may pay to such Member
or former Member any additional amount that the Manager determines such Member or
former Member should have been entitled to receive, or, in its sole discretion, seek payment
from such Member or former Member of the amount of any excess payment that the
Manager determines such Member or former Member received, in each case without
interest, although, in its sole discretion, the Manager may determine for any reason or no
reason that such action is not feasible or practicable. Nothing in this Section 4.4, express or
implied, is intended or shall be construed to give any Person other than the Fund, the
Manager or the Members any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect
of this Section 4.4 or any provision contained herein.
ARTICLE V-Capital
5.1 Contributions to Capital.
(a) The minimum initial contribution of each Member (other than the Manager) to the
capital of the Fund shall be such amount as the Manager may determine from time
to time. The amount of the initial contribution of each Member shall be recorded
on the books and records of the Fund upon acceptance as a contribution to the
capital of the Fund.
(b) The Members may make additional contributions to the capital of the Fund,
effective as of such times and in such amounts as the Manager in its discretion may
permit, but no Member shall be obligated to make any additional contribution to
the capital of the Fund except to the extent otherwise provided herein.
(c) Except as otherwise permitted by the Manager, (i) initial and any additional
contributions to the capital of the Fund by any Member shall be payable in cash,
and (ii) initial and any additional contributions in cash shall be payable in readily
available funds at the date of the proposed acceptance of the contribution.
5.2 Rights of Members to Capital. No Member shall be entitled to interest on his, her or its
contribution to the capital of the Fund, nor shall any Member be entitled to the return of
any capital of the Fund except (i) upon the withdrawal by Members of a part or all of such
Member's Interest pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof, (ii) pursuant to the provisions of Section
5.6(c) hereof or (iii) upon the liquidation of the Fund's assets pursuant to Section 6.2
hereof. No Member shall be liable for the return of any such amounts except as provided
herein. No Member shall have the right to require partition of the Fund's property or to
compel any sale or appraisal of the Fund's assets.
5.3 Capital Accounts.
(a) The Fund shall maintain a separate Capital Account for each Member.
8-19
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004107
EFTA00239439
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
(b) Each Member's Capital Account shall have an initial balance equal to the amount of
cash constituting such Member's initial contribution to the capital of the Fund.
(c) Each Member's Capital Account shall be increased by the sum of (i) the amount of
cash constituting additional contributions by such Member to the capital of the
Fund permitted pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof, plus (ii) any amount credited to
such Member's Capital Account pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE V.
(d) Each Member's Capital Account shall be reduced by the sum of (i) any amount
withdrawn by such Member or distributions to such Member pursuant to Sections
4.3 or 6.2 hereof, plus (ii) any amounts debited against such Member's Capital
Account pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE V. At the end of each Fiscal
Period, each Member's Capital Account shall be reduced by the amount of the Fee
calculated in respect of such Member for such Fiscal Period.
(e) In the event the Manager determines that, based upon tax or regulatory reasons,
such Member's Capital Account should not participate, in whole or in part, in the
adjustments pursuant to Sections 5.3(c) or 5.3(d) hereof, if any, attributable to
trading or investing in any Investment, type of Investment, or to any other
transaction, the Manager may allocate such adjustments pursuant to Sections 5.3(c)
or 5.3(d) hereof to the Capital Accounts of the Members not subject to such
limitations on participation as may be deemed appropriate. In addition, if for any of
the reasons described above, the Manager determines that a Member's Capital
Account should have no interest whatsoever or shall have only a partial interest in a
particular Investment, type of Investment or transaction, the interests in such
Investment, type of Investment or transaction may be set forth in a separate
memorandum account and the adjustments pursuant to Sections 5.3(c) or 5.3(d)
hereof for each such memorandum account shall be separately calculated and
allocated among the Members' Capital Accounts to the extent of their interest in
such Investment, type of Investment or transaction.
CO If all or a portion of an Interest is transferred in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, the transferee shall succeed to the Capital Account of the transferor to
the extent it relates to the transferred Interest.
5.4 Allocation of Net Profit and Net Loss. As of the last day of each Fiscal Period, any Net Profit
or Net Loss for the Fiscal Period shall be allocated among and credited to or debited against
the Capital Accounts of the Members in accordance with their respective Fund Percentages
for such Fiscal Period, except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement with
respect to items of profit or loss that are to be allocated on a non-pro rata basis (which
items will be allocated amount and credited to or debited against Capital Account as so
otherwise provided).
5.5 Allocation of Certain Withholding Taxes and Other Expenditures.
(a) If the Fund incurs a withholding tax or other tax obligation with respect to the share
of Fund income allocable to any Member, then the Manager, without limitation of
any other rights of the Fund or the Manager, shall cause the amount of such
obligation to be debited against the Capital Account of such Member when the
Fund pays such obligation, and any amounts then or thereafter distributable to such
Member shall be reduced by the amount of such taxes. If the amount of such taxes
is greater than any such distributable amounts, then such Member and any
8-20
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004108
EFTA00239440
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
successor to such Member's Interest shall pay to the Fund as a contribution to the
capital of the Fund, upon demand of the Fund, the amount of such excess. The
Fund shall not be obligated to apply for or obtain a reduction of or exemption from
withholding tax on behalf of any Member that may be eligible for such reduction or
exemption; provided, that in the event that the Fund determines that a Member is
eligible for a refund of any withholding tax, the Fund may, at the request and
expense of such Member, assist such Member in applying for such refund.
(b) Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, any expenditures payable by
the Fund, and any other Fund items, to the extent determined by the Manager to
have been paid or incurred or withheld on behalf of, or by reason of particular
circumstances applicable to, one or more but fewer than all of the Members, may,
in the Manager's sole discretion, be charged to only those Members on whose
behalf such expenditures or items are paid or incurred or whose particular
circumstances gave rise to such expenditures or items. Such charges shall be
debited from the Capital Accounts of such Members as of the dose of the Fiscal
Period during which any such items were paid or accrued by the Fund.
5.6 Reserves.
(a) Appropriate reserves may be created, accrued and charged against Net Assets and
proportionately against the Capital Accounts of the Members for contingent
liabilities, if any, as of the date that the Manager in its sole discretion deems
appropriate, such reserves to be in the amounts which the Manager in its sole
discretion deem necessary or appropriate. The Manager may increase or reduce any
such reserves from time to time by such amounts as it in its sole discretion deems
necessary or appropriate. The amount of any such reserve, or any increase or
decrease therein, shall be proportionately charged or credited, as appropriate, to
the Capital Accounts of those parties who are Members at the time when such
reserve is created, increased or decreased, as the case may be; provided, however,
that if any such individual reserve item, adjusted by any increase therein, exceeds
the lesser of $500,000 or 1% of the aggregate value of the Capital Accounts of all
such Members, the amount of such reserve, increase, or decrease instead may, in
the discretion of the Manager, be charged or credited to those parties who were
Members at the time, as determined by the Manager in its sole discretion, of the act
or omission giving rise to the contingent liability for which the reserve was
established, increased or decreased in proportion to their Capital Accounts.
(b) If at any time an amount is paid or received by the Fund (other than contributions
to the capital of the Fund, distributions or withdrawals of Interests or portions
thereof) and such amount exceeds the lesser of $500,000 or 1% of the aggregate
value of the Capital Accounts of all Members at the time of payment or receipt and
such amount was not accrued or reserved for but would nevertheless, in
accordance with the Fund's accounting practices, be treated as applicable to one or
more prior Fiscal Periods, then such amount may, in the discretion of the Manager,
be proportionately charged or credited, as appropriate, to those parties who were
Members during such prior Fiscal Period or Periods.
(c) If any amount is required or permitted by paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 5.6 to
be charged or credited to a party who is no longer a Member, such amount shall be
paid by or to such party, as the case may be, in cash, with interest from the date on
which the Manager determines that such charge or credit is required. In the case of
8-21
CONFIDENTIAL UBSTERRAMAR00004109
EFTA00239441
FOR EXISTING INVESTOR USE ONLY
a charge, the former Member shall be obligated to pay the amount of the charge,
plus interest as provided above, to the Fund on demand; provided, however, that
(i) in no event shall a former Member be obligated to make a payment exceeding
the amount of such Member's Capital Account at the time to which the charge
relates; and (ii) no such demand shall be made after the expiration of three (3)
years, or such longer period as permitted under applicable law, from the date on
which such party ceased to be a Member. To the extent that a former Member fails
to pay to the Fund, in full, any amount required to be charged to such former
Member pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b), whether due to the expiration of the
applicable limitation period or for any other reason whatsoever, the deficiency shall
be charged proportionately to the Capital Accounts of the Members at the time of
the act or omission giving rise to the charge to the extent feasible, and otherwise
proportionately to the Capital Accounts of the current Members.
5.7 Tax Allocations.
(a) For each Fiscal Year, items of income, deduction, gain, loss or credit shall be
allocated for income tax purposes among the Members in such manner as to reflect
equitably amounts credited or debited to each Member's Capital Account for the
current and prior Fiscal Years (or relevant portions thereof). Allocations under this
Section 5.7 shall be made pursuant to the principles of Section 704(b) and 704(c) of
the Code, and in conformity with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ivXf)
and (g), 1.704-1(b)(4)(i) and 1.704-3(e) promulgated thereunder, as applicable, or
the successor provisions to such Section and Treasury Regulations. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, there shall be allocated to the Members
such gains or income as shall be necessary to satisfy the "qualified income offset"
requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2Xii)(d).
(b) If the Fund realizes ordinary income and/or capital gains (including short-term
capital gains) for federal income tax purposes (collectively, "income") for any Fiscal
Year during or as of the end of which one or more Positive Basis Members
withdraw from the Fund pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof, the Manager may elect to
allocate such income as follows: (i) to allocate such income among such Positive
Basis Members until either the full amount of such income shall have been so
allocated or the Positive Basis of each such Positive Basis Member shall have been
eliminated, and (ii) to allocate any income not so allocated to Positive Basis
Members to the other Members in such manner as shall equitably reflect the
amounts allocated to such Members' Capital Accounts pursuant to Sections 5.3(c)
or 5.3(d) hereof.
(c) If the Fund realizes deductions, ordinary losses and/or capital losses (including long-
term capital losses) for federal income tax purposes (collectively, "losses") for any
Fiscal Year during or as of the end of which one or more Negative Basis Members
withdraw from the Fund pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof, the Manager may elect to
allocate such losses as follows: (i) to allocate such losses among such Negative Basis
Members until either the full amount of such losses shall have been so allocated or
the Negative Basis of each such Negative Basis Member shall have been eliminated
and (ii) to allocate any losses not so allocated to Negative Basis Members to the
other Members in such manner as shall equitably reflect the amounts allocated to
such Members' Capital Accounts pursuant to Sections 5.3(c) or 5.3(d) hereof.
