An Important Message from Your Fund's President

Dear Shareholder:

I am asking for your vote to approve a new sub-advisory contract on behalf of the Sweater Cashmere Fund (the "Fund"). A special meeting of Fund shareholders will be held on September 5, 2024 in Boulder, Colorado to consider this matter, described below. You may conveniently vote by:

· Calling the toll-free number listed on your proxy card;
· Visiting the website listed on your proxy card; or
· Mailing the enclosed proxy card-be sure to sign and date the card before mailing it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope.

Of course, you are also welcome to attend the special shareholder meeting on September 5, 2024 and vote your shares in person.

You-and all Fund shareholders-are being asked to approve a new sub-advisory agreement between the Fund's adviser, Sweater Industries LLC (the "Adviser"), and Forma Cashmere LLC (the "Forma"), the proposed subadviser to the Fund (the "Sub-Advisory Agreement"). As discussed in more detail in the enclosed proxy statement, the Fund's Board of the Trustees has determined that it would be in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders to retain Forma as the Fund's subadviser pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement. In order to retain a subadviser for the Fund, the Board of Trustees has approved the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Adviser and Forma, which permits the Adviser to delegate its investment advisory duties to Forma, subject to oversight by the Adviser.

Detailed information regarding this proposal may be found in the enclosed proxy statement.

The Fund's Board of Trustees unanimously recommend that you vote "FOR" the approval of the new Sub-Advisory Agreement with Forma.

I appreciate your participation and prompt response and thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

Jesse K Randall

President of Sweater Cashmere Fund

Important information to help you understand and vote on the proposal:

The following questions and answers provide an overview of the proposal on which you are being asked to vote. The accompanying Proxy Statement contains more information about the proposal, and we encourage you to read it in its entirety. Your vote is important.

Q. Why has a special meeting been called?
A. The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), which regulates investment companies such as Sweater Cashmere Fund (the "Fund"), requires any investment advisory agreement pursuant to which an adviser will serve as investment adviser to an investment company to be approved by (1) the board of trustees of the investment company and (2) shareholders of the investment company.

The Fund's Board of the Trustees has determined that it would be in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders to retain Forma Cashmere LLC (the "Forma") to serve as the Fund's subadviser. In order to retain Forma as subadviser for the Fund, the Board of Trustees has approved the proposed sub-advisory agreement between the Fund's investment adviser, Sweater Industries LLC (the "Adviser"), and Forma, which permits the Adviser to delegate its investment advisory duties to Forma, subject to oversight by the Adviser (the "Sub-Advisory Agreement").

We are therefore asking shareholders to approve the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Fund's Board of Trustees has unanimously approved the Sub-Advisory Agreement.

It is important to note that the management fee rate that the Fund pays will remain the same.

Q. What is this document and why did you send it to me?
A. We are sending this mailing to you for your use in deciding whether to approve the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Adviser and Forma pursuant to which Forma will be retained to provide sub-advisory services to the Fund, subject to oversight by the Adviser. Under the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, Forma will be paid by the Adviser out of the management fee it receives from the Fund. Accordingly, approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreement will not change the management fee rate paid by the Fund.

This mailing includes a Notice of Special Meeting of Shareholders, a Proxy Statement, and your Proxy Card.

Q. Why am I being asked to vote on a proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement?
A. In order for the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement to be effective, and for Forma to serve as subadviser to the Fund, the Sub-Advisory Agreement must be approved by (1) the Board of Trustees of the Fund and (2) shareholders of the Fund.

The Fund's Board of Trustees has already approved the Sub-Advisory Agreement. Accordingly, we are now asking shareholders to approve the Sub-Advisory Agreement.

Q. How will the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement, if approved by shareholders, affect the Fund.
A. Sweater Industries LLC (the Adviser) currently serves as investment manager to the Fund pursuant to the terms of its investment management agreement with the Fund (the "Investment Management Agreement") that was approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees and sole shareholder in February 2022 prior to the Fund's launch. The Investment Management Agreement permits the Adviser to delegate its investment management responsibilities to a sub-adviser. As discussed elsewhere, the Adviser is proposing to delegate its investment advisory responsibilities to Forma pursuant to the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, subject to oversight by the Adviser.

The Fund's investment objectives, strategies, and policies will not change as a result of the new Sub-Advisory Agreement.

However, it is anticipated that, if the Sub-Advisory Agreement is approved, Elia Infascelli, Ari Schottenstein, and Mary Owen, Managing Partners at Forma, will serve as the Fund's sole portfolio managers.

Q. Will approval of the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement change the fees or expenses paid by the Fund?
A. No. Approval of the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement will not affect the Fund's management fee rate.
Q. Will Sweater Industries LLC continue to serve as the Fund's investment adviser if the Sub-Advisory Agreement is approved?
A. Yes. Sweater Industries LLC (the Adviser) will continue to serve as investment adviser to the Fund pursuant to the terms of its Investment Management with the Fund, regardless of whether the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement is approved.
Q. What will happen if shareholders do not approve the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement?
A. If the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement is not approved by Fund shareholders, then the Sub-Advisory Agreement will not become effective, Forma will not be engaged as the Fund's subadviser, and Forma will not provide sub-advisory services to the Fund. The Adviser will continue as investment adviser to the Fund, regardless of whether or not the Sub-Advisory Agreement is approved.
Q. Who is Forma Cashmere LLC?
A. Forma Cashmere LLC (Forma) is a newly-formed investment adviser that is an affiliate of, and shares its management team with, Forma Capital, LLC ("Forma Capital"), a venture capital firm focused on providing capital, creating brand awareness, finding growth opportunities through sales and marketing partnerships, and deploying capital and influence in consumer brands. Forma is led by its Managing Partners, Elia Infascelli, Ari Schottenstein, and Mary Owen.

THE PROPOSAL

Approval of a New Sub-Advisory Agreement on Behalf of the Fund

The Trustees unanimously recommend the approval of the proposed sub-advisory agreement on behalf of the Fund (the "Sub-Advisory Agreement") between Sweater Industries LLC (the "Adviser"), the investment adviser to the Fund, and Forma Cashmere LLC ("Forma"), pursuant to which the Adviser would delegate its investment advisory duties with respect to the Fund to Forma, with Forma acting as subadviser to the Fund, subject to oversight by the Adviser. The form of the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

The Proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement

The proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement provides that Forma will, subject to the supervision of the Board and the Adviser, act as subadviser for, and manage on a discretionary basis the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Fund. In connection therewith, and subject to the supervision of the Board and the Adviser, Forma will: (i) implement and supervise the investment program of the Fund and the composition of its portfolio; (ii) determine the timing and amount of commitments, investments and/or disposals to be made by the Fund, the securities and other investments to be purchased or sold by the Fund in connection therewith; (iii) arrange for the purchase of securities and other investments for the Fund and the sale or redemption of securities and other investments held in the portfolio of the Fund; all on behalf of the Fund and as described in the Fund's most current effective registration statement on Form N-2 and as the same may thereafter be amended from time to time. The Sub-Advisory Agreement further requires Forma, in the performance of its duties, to in all material respects: (a) satisfy any applicable fiduciary duties it may have to the Fund; (b) monitor the Fund's investments; (c) comply with the provisions of the Fund's Declaration of Trust and By-laws, the stated investment objectives, policies and restrictions of the Fund as such objectives, policies and restrictions may subsequently be changed by the Board and communicated by the Fund or the Adviser to the Sub-Adviser in writing, and those requirements applicable to regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; and (d) assist in the valuation of portfolio securities held by the Fund as reasonably requested by the Adviser or the Fund.

As compensation for its services under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, Forma will be entitled to receive a fee, based on the Average Daily Net Assets of the Fund (defined below), computed and paid monthly, payable by the Adviser, at the annual rates set forth below:

Fund's Average Daily Net Assets Sub-Advisory Fee
Payable to Forma
$1 - $50,000,000 1.55%
$50,000,001 - $100,000,000 1.65%
$100,000,000 - $250,000,000 1.75%
$250,000,000 - $500,000,000 1.84%
$500,000,000+ 1.94%

3

The Fund's "Average Daily Net Assets" will be determined by taking an average of all of the determinations of such amount during such month at the close of business on each business day during such month while the Sub-Advisory Agreement is in effect.

The proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement provides that it will continue in force for an initial period of two years, and from year to year thereafter, but only so long as its continuance is approved at least annually by (i) the Board or (ii) a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, provided that in either event, continuance is also approved by a majority of the members of the Board who are not "interested persons" (as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) of the Fund, the Adviser, or Forma (the "Independent Trustees") by a vote cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting such approval. The proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement automatically terminates on assignment and is terminable on 60 days' notice by the Board or the Adviser. In addition, the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement may be terminated by Forma on 60 days' notice to the Fund or the Adviser.

The proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement provides that Forma will not be subject to any liability in connection with the performance of its services thereunder, except for liabilities resulting from Forma's breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for services or losses resulting from the willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the performance of Forma's duties or from reckless disregard by Forma of its duties under the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement further provides for the Fund to indemnify Forma against any liabilities or expenses in may incur in connection with the performance of services to the Fund, with the exception of those liabilities or expenses incurred by reason of Forma's willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence, or from reckless disregard by Forma of its duties to the Fund.

Subject to shareholder approval, the Adviser intends to enter into the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement shortly after the Meeting. However, execution of the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement will only occur after, Forma's registration as an investment adviser with the Securities Exchange Commission has been completed. Forma is in the process of completing such investment adviser registration.

If the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement with Forma is not approved by Fund shareholders, the Board will consider other options, which may include a new or modified request for shareholder approval of a new investment sub-advisory agreement. The Adviser intends to continue on as investment adviser to the Fund, regardless of whether the Sub-Advisory Agreement is approved by Shareholders.

The description in this Proxy Statement of the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement is only a summary. A form of the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement is attached to this Proxy Statement as Exhibit A. You should read the full proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement before determining how to vote your shares.

None of the Trustees or officers of the Fund is an officer, employer, or shareholder of Forma. None of the Trustees or officers of the Fund had any material direct or indirect interest in any transactions or proposed transactions with Forma during the past fiscal year.

Evaluation by the Board of Trustees

The Board, including all of the members of the Board who are not "interested persons" (as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) of the Fund, the Adviser, or Forma (each, an "Independent Trustee" and, collectively, the "Independent Trustees"), met in person to discuss the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Adviser and Forma with respect to the Fund.

Pursuant to the 1940 Act, the Board is required to consider the initial approval of any investment advisory agreement with the Fund, including the Sub-Advisory Agreement. In connection with this process, the Board reviewed and discussed at a special in-person meeting materials relating to its consideration of the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Board also considered all factors it believed relevant with respect to the Fund, including: (a) the nature, extent, and quality of services to be provided by Forma to the Fund; (b) the nature, estimated cost, and scope Forma's proposed services under the Sub-Advisory Agreement; (c) conditions that might affect Forma's ability to provide high quality services to the Fund; (d) the proposed fee to be paid to Forma by the Adviser under the Agreement; (e) estimated expenses to be incurred by Forma with respect to the Fund and estimated profitability of the Fund to Forma; (f) potential fall-out benefits to Forma with respect to its sub-management of the Fund; and (g) the extent to which Forma may realize economies of scale with respect to its sub-management of the Fund. The Board received materials related to these matters for review in advance of the Meeting.

In considering whether to approve the Sub-Advisory Agreement and in reviewing the related materials, the Board met with relevant personnel of the Adviser and Forma, and reviewed with them materials prepared by Forma and materials provided by legal counsel to the Fund. The Board also met, including in executive session, with legal counsel to the Fund and with the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer. Fund legal counsel reviewed with the Board their duties and responsibilities with respect to considering the approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreement.

5

As part of their review, the Trustees examined Forma's ability to provide high quality investment management services to the Fund. The Trustees considered the qualifications and experience of Forma's personnel who would serve as the Fund's portfolio managers, as well as the qualifications and experience of certain other key individuals at Forma who would provide services to the Fund. The Trustees also considered Forma's investment philosophy and Forma's representations regarding its intended research and decision-making processes, its ability to attract and retain capable research and advisory personnel and the costs associated with retaining such personnel, the capability of Forma's senior management, and the level of skill required to provide sub-advisory services to the Fund. The Trustees also discussed with Forma's representatives their experience in the venture capital space and how they would transition this to managing the Fund.

The Trustees reviewed the nature, estimated cost, and scope Forma's proposed services under the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Trustees considered that these services include adhering to the Fund's investment restrictions, complying with regulatory obligations, performing due diligence on potential portfolio companies and funds, and negotiating to invest in proposed portfolio companies, subject to oversight by the Adviser. The Trustees discussed with the Adviser and with Forma the delegation by the Adviser of its day-to-day investment management responsibilities with respect to the Fund to Forma, and the Adviser's responsibility to oversee Forma's provision of investment management services to the Fund.

The Board noted that Forma's senior management currently manage a private venture capital fund (advised by an affiliate of Forma), and considered certain performance information regarding this venture capital fund. The Board noted the differences between a private venture capital fund versus a registered closed-end fund such as the Fund, and thus did not rely on these comparisons to a significant extent.

The Trustees considered conditions that might affect Forma's ability to provide high quality services to the Fund under the Sub-Advisory Agreement. This included information provided by Forma on its projected costs of advising the Fund and representations made by Forma to the Board regarding its capitalization and funding. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that Forma's investment process, research capabilities and philosophy appeared to be well suited to the Fund, given the Fund's investment objectives and policies. The Board also determined, based on representations provided by Forma, that Forma should be able to meet its reasonably foreseeable obligations under the Sub-Advisory Agreement.

The Trustees considered the proposed sub-management fee under the Agreement, including reviewing information provided by Forma comparing this with contractual management fees of certain peer group closed-end funds that also primarily make private investments. The Trustees also discussed with the Adviser and Forma the proposed sub-management fee under the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Trustees also considered information provided by Forma regarding the fees it affiliated adviser charges to its private venture capital fund client. The Board did not rely on this comparison to a significant extent, however, noting the differences between a private venture capital fund versus a registered closed-end fund such as the Fund.

The Trustees considered information about the estimated expenses to be incurred by Forma with respect to the Fund and estimated profitability of the Fund to Forma over the initial term of the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Trustees also evaluated the potential benefits of the sub-advisory relationship to Forma, in addition to the proposed sub-management fee under the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Trustees considered Forma's representations that it does not anticipate causing the Fund to enter into transactions that will generate "soft dollar" credits. The Trustees considered and discussed with Forma the proposed use of Fund assets for advertising purposes. Forma confirmed that no personnel of Forma or its affiliates would receive compensation from the Fund for assisting the Fund with its marketing efforts.

6

The Trustees also considered the extent to which economies of scale might be realized by Forma, and reviewed estimates provided by Forma. The Trustees determined that it does not appear that Forma will benefit from economies of scale acting as subadviser to the Fund to such an extent that additional breakpoints in the sub-management fee under the Sub-Advisory Agreement should be implemented at this time.

In its deliberations with respect to these matters, the full Board, including the Independent Trustees, was advised by counsel to the Fund. The Independent Trustees considered the Agreement in executive session, as well as in the presence of the full Board. The Trustees weighed the foregoing matters, as well as other information, in light of the advice given by the Fund's counsel as to the law applicable to the review of investment advisory contracts. In arriving at a decision, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, did not identify any single matter as all-important or controlling, and the foregoing summary does not detail all of the matters considered. The Trustees may also have evaluated these matters differently, ascribing different weights to various matters.

Based on its review, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, determined, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the proposed management fee under the Sub-Advisory Agreement was reasonable in light of the nature and scope of services to be performed by Forma under the Sub-Advisory Agreement and the costs projected to be incurred by Forma in providing services to the Fund, and further determined that approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.

The Board therefore recommended that approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreement be voted on by the Fund's shareholders, and that the Fund's Shareholders vote FOR the approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreement.

Required Vote

Shareholder approval of the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement requires the affirmative vote of the lesser, as of the Record Date, of (a) more than 50% of the shares of the Fund entitled to vote or (b) 67% of the shares of the Fund present at the Meeting if more than 50% of the shares of the Fund entitled to vote are present at the Meeting in person or by proxy. All shares of the Fund vote together as a single class on the proposal to approve the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement.

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE PROPOSED SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT WITH FORMA.

7

Other Matters to Come Before the Meeting

The Board knows of no other matters to be presented at the Meeting other than the Proposal described above. If, however, any other matters properly come before the Meeting, such as to adjourn the meeting, proxies will be voted on these matters in accordance with the judgement of the persons named as proxies in the attached proxy card.

The Fund is a Delaware statutory trust that is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that operates as an "interval fund." The Fund's principal executive offices are located at 12000 Central Ave., Boulder, Colorado 80301. The Board supervises the business activities of the Fund.

Like other registered closed-end interval funds, the Fund retains various organizations to perform specialized services. UMB Fund Services, Inc., located at 235 W Galena St, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53212, provides the Fund with transfer agent, accounting, and administrative services. UMB Bank, N.A., located at 1010 Grand Blvd, Kansas City, Missouri 64106, serves as the Fund's custodian.

PROXY VOTING AND SHAREHOLDER MEETING INFORMATION

Proxy Solicitation

If you properly authorize your proxy through the internet or telephonically, or by executing and returning the enclosed proxy card, and your proxy is not subsequently revoked, your vote will be cast at the Meeting. If you give instructions, your vote will be cast in accordance with your instructions. If you return your signed Proxy Card without instructions, your vote will be cast FOR the approval of the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Adviser and Forma (the "Proposal"). Your vote will be cast in the discretion of the proxy holders on any other matter that may properly come before the Meeting, including, but not limited to, proposing and/or voting on an adjournment of the Meeting in the event that a quorum is not obtained and/or sufficient votes in favor of the Proposal are not received.

Revocation of Proxies

If you execute and submit a proxy, you may revoke that proxy or change it at any time before it is exercised by: (a) submitting a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, (b) submitting a written notice to the President of the Fund revoking the proxy, or (c) by attending the Meeting and casting your vote in person.

Any written notice to revoke your proxy must be timely mailed to the President of the Fund at: Jesse K Randall, President, Sweater Cashmere Fund, 2000 Central Ave., Boulder, Colorado 80301

Quorum and Methods of Tabulation

The Fund offers a single class of shares of beneficial interest, which is the only class of shares currently authorized by the Fund. As of the close of business on the Record Date, 673,056.259 shares of the Fund were issued and outstanding.

The holders of a majority of the Fund's shares entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at the Meeting. Abstentions will be treated as present for purposes of determining a quorum. A quorum is required to take action on the Proposal.

8

In the event that a quorum of shareholders of the Fund is not present at the Meeting or, even if such a quorum is so present, in the event that sufficient votes in favor of the Proposal are not received and tabulated prior to the time the Meeting is called to order, the Meeting may be adjourned by the vote of a majority of the shares represented at the Meeting, either in person or by proxy, and further solicitations may be made.

Fund shareholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting. Each shareholder is entitled to one vote per share held on the Record Date, and a proportional fractional vote for any fractional share held.

Effect of Abstentions

Abstentions will be considered present for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum and the number of shares of the Fund represented at the Meeting, but they are not affirmative votes for the Proposal. Because approval of the Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote, abstentions will have the effect of a vote AGAINST the Proposal.

Shareholder Proposals and Future Meetings

The Fund has not received any shareholder proposals to be considered for presentation at the Meeting. Under the proxy rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, shareholder proposals may, under certain conditions, be included in the Fund's Proxy Statement and proxy for a particular Meeting. Under these rules, proposals submitted for inclusion in the Fund's proxy materials must be received by the Fund within a reasonable time before the solicitation is made. The fact that the Fund receives a shareholder proposal in a timely manner does not ensure its inclusion in its proxy materials, because there are other requirements in the proxy rules relating to such inclusion. Any shareholder proposal should be sent to Jesse K Randall, President, Sweater Cashmere Fund, 2000 Central Ave., Boulder, Colorado 80301.

Under its Declaration of Trust, the Fund is not required to hold annual meetings of its shareholders to elect Trustees or for other purposes. It is not anticipated that the Fund will hold shareholders' meetings unless required by law or its Declaration of Trust.

Other Matters to Come Before the Meeting

The Board knows of no other matters to be presented at the Meeting other than the Proposal described in this Proxy Statement. If other business should properly come before the Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote thereon in accordance with their best judgment.

Expenses of the Solicitation

The Board is making this solicitation of proxies. For managing the Funds' overall proxy campaign, Broadridge Financial Solutions ("Broadridge") will receive a proxy management fee of $30,000 plus reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses. Broadridge will also receive fees in connection with assembling, mailing, and transmitting the notice of meeting, proxy statement and related materials on behalf of the Fund, tabulating those votes that are received, and any solicitation of additional votes. While the fees received by Broadridge will vary based on the level of additional solicitation necessary to achieve quorum and shareholder approval, the fees paid to Broadridge are currently estimated to be approximately $35,600. The cost of preparing and mailing this Proxy Statement, the accompanying Notice of Special Meeting and any additional materials relating to the Meeting and the cost of soliciting proxies, including the fees paid to Broadridge, will be borne by the Fund. Certain officers, employees and agents of the Fund and the Adviser may solicit proxies in person or by telephone, facsimile transmission, or mail, for which they will not receive any special compensation.

9

Principal Shareholders

As of the Record Date, there were no record owners of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Fund. Shareholders owning more than 25% of the shares of a Fund may be presumed under securities laws to control the Fund and may be able to determine the outcome of the issues that are submitted to shareholders for vote.

As a group, the Trustees and officers of the Fund owned less than 1% of the outstanding shares of the Fund as of the Record Date.

3. PROVISION OF INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY SERVICES

Subject always to the supervision of the Board and the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser will act as sub-adviser for, and manage on a discretionary basis the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Fund. In connection therewith, and subject to the supervision of the Board and the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser shall (i) implement and supervise the investment program of the Fund and the composition of its portfolio; (ii) determine the timing and amount of commitments, investments and/or disposals to be made by the Fund, the securities and other investments to be purchased or sold by the Fund in connection therewith; (iii) arrange, subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof, for the purchase of securities and other investments for the Fund and the sale or redemption of securities and other investments held in the portfolio of the Fund; all on behalf of the Fund and as described in the Fund's most current effective registration statement on Form N-2 and as the same may thereafter be amended from time to time. In the performance of its duties, the Sub-Adviser will in all material respects (a) satisfy any applicable fiduciary duties it may have to the Fund; (b) monitor the Fund's investments; (c) comply with the provisions of the Fund's Declaration of Trust and By-laws, as amended from time to time and communicated by the Fund or the Adviser to the Sub-Adviser in writing, the stated investment objectives, policies and restrictions of the Fund as such objectives, policies and restrictions may subsequently be changed by the Board and communicated by the Fund or the Adviser to the Sub-Adviser in writing, and those requirements applicable to regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; and (d) assist in the valuation of portfolio securities held by the Fund as reasonably requested by the Adviser or the Fund.

4. BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. While not expected to be a primary part of the Fund's investment strategy, to the extent applicable, and subject always to the supervision of the Board and the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser is authorized to select brokers and/or dealers to execute certain purchases and sales of portfolio securities for the Fund and, to the extent that public securities are involved, is directed to use its best efforts to obtain "best execution," considering the Fund's investment objectives, policies, and restrictions as stated in the Fund's Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, as the same may be amended, supplemented or restated from time to time, and resolutions of the Fund's Board. The Sub-Adviser will promptly communicate to the Adviser and the Board such information relating to portfolio transactions as they may reasonably request. It is understood that the Sub-Adviser will not be deemed to have acted unlawfully, or to have breached a fiduciary duty to the Fund or be in breach of any obligation owing to the Fund under this Agreement, or otherwise, by reason of its having directed a securities transaction on behalf of the Fund to a broker-dealer in compliance with the provisions of Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or as described from time to time by the Fund's Prospectus and Statement of Additional.
5. PROXY VOTING AND RELATED MATTERS
(a) The Adviser hereby delegates to the Sub-Adviser the Adviser's discretionary authority to exercise voting and consent rights with respect to the securities and investments of the Fund, provided, however, that the Fund or the Adviser may require, upon request, that the Sub-Adviser vote proxies and related consents for the Fund in accordance with the Fund's or the Adviser's proxy voting policies. Absent specific instructions to the contrary provided to it by the Fund or the Adviser, and subject to its receipt of all necessary voting materials, the Sub-Adviser shall vote all proxies and similar consents with respect to investments of the Fund in accordance with the Adviser's proxy voting policy.
(b) The Sub-Adviser shall maintain and preserve a record, in an easily-accessible place for a period of not less than five years (or longer, if required by law), of the Sub-Adviser's voting procedures, of the Sub-Adviser's actual votes, and such other information required for the Fund to comply with any rules or regulations promulgated by the SEC. The Sub-Adviser shall supply updates of this record to the Adviser or any authorized representative of the Adviser, or to the Fund, on a quarterly basis (or more frequently, upon the request of the Adviser or the Fund).

(c) The Sub-Adviser may, with the Board's approval, agree to waive its fees and/or pay or reimburse the expenses of the Fund or otherwise subsidize the Fund to any level that the Sub-Adviser, or any such affiliate, may specify. Any such undertaking may be modified or discontinued at any time except to the extent the Sub-Adviser explicitly agrees in writing to maintain such undertaking for a specified period.
(d) To the extent the Sub-Adviser or its affiliates incur any costs by assuming expenses that are an obligation of the Fund as set forth herein, the Fund shall promptly reimburse the Sub-Adviser for such costs and expenses, except to the extent the Sub-Adviser has otherwise explicitly agreed to bear such expenses.

7. COMPENSATION OF THE SUB-ADVISER.
(a) For the services provided and the expenses assumed pursuant to this Agreement, the Adviser will pay to the Sub-Adviser a fee, based on the Average Daily Net Assets of the Fund, computed and paid monthly, at the annual rates set forth on Schedule A attached to this Agreement, as from time to time amended. The Fund's "Average Daily Net Assets" shall be determined by taking an average of all of the determinations of such amount during such month at the close of business on each business day during such month while this Agreement is in. Such fee shall be payable for each month within 20 business days after the end of such month.
(b) If the Sub-Adviser serves for less than the whole of a month, the foregoing compensation will be prorated.
(c) The Sub-Adviser may agree to waive its fees and/or pay or reimburse the expenses of the Fund or otherwise subsidize the Fund to any level that the Sub-Adviser may specify. Any such undertaking may be modified or discontinued at any time except to the extent the Sub-Adviser explicitly agrees in writing to maintain such undertaking for a specified period.
(d) All rights of compensation under this Agreement for services performed as of the termination date shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
8. FURTHER RESPONSIBILITIES AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE SUB-ADVISER. The Sub-Adviser further agrees that it:
(a) will use the same degree of skill and care in providing services to the Fund as it uses in providing services to other accounts for which it has investment responsibilities;
(b) will report to the Adviser and to the Board on a quarterly basis and will make appropriate persons available for the purpose of reviewing with representatives of the Adviser and the Board on a regular basis at such times as the Adviser or the Board may reasonably request in writing regarding the management of the Fund, including, without limitation, review of the general investment strategies of the Fund, the performance of the Fund's investment portfolio in relation to relevant standard industry indices and general conditions affecting the marketplace, and will provide various other reports from time to time as reasonably requested by the Adviser or the Board;
(c) will prepare and maintain such books and records with respect to the Fund's securities and other transactions for the Fund's investment portfolio as required for registered investment advisers performing such services under applicable law, the Fund's compliance policies and procedures (as provided to the Sub-Adviser in writing) or as otherwise requested by the Adviser or the Board in writing, and will prepare and furnish the Adviser and the Board such periodic and special reports as the Adviser or the Board may request in writing from time to time. The Sub-Adviser further agrees that all records that it maintains for the Fund are the property of the Fund, and the Sub-Adviser will surrender promptly to the Fund any such records upon the request of the Adviser or the Board (provided, however, that the Sub-Adviser shall be permitted to retain copies thereof); and shall be permitted to retain originals (with copies to the Fund) to the extent required under Rule 204-2 of the Advisers Act or other applicable law; and
(d) will monitor the pricing of portfolio securities, and events relating to the issuers of those securities and the markets in which the securities trade in the ordinary course of managing the portfolio securities of the Fund, and will notify the Adviser promptly of any issuer-specific or market events or other situations that occur (particularly those that may occur after the close of a foreign market in which the securities may primarily trade but before the time at which the Fund's investments are priced on a given day) that may materially impact the pricing of one or more securities in Sub-Adviser's portion of the portfolio. In addition, Sub-Adviser will at the Adviser's request assist the Adviser in evaluating the impact that such an event may have on the net asset value of the Fund and in determining a recommended fair value of the affected security or securities.

6

9. OTHER ACTIVITIES. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict the right of any director, member, manager, officer, or employee of the Sub-Adviser or its affiliates to engage in any other business or to devote his or her time and attention in part to the management or other aspects of any other business, whether of a similar nature or a dissimilar nature, nor to limit or restrict the right of the Sub-Adviser or its affiliates to engage in any other business or to render services of any kind to any other person, corporation, firm, individual or association. The Sub-Adviser's services to the Fund pursuant to this Agreement are not deemed to be exclusive and it is understood that the Sub-Adviser and its affiliates may render investment advice, management and other services to others.
10. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION OF THE SUB-ADVISER.
(a) Except for losses resulting from the Sub-Adviser's breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for services or losses resulting from the willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the performance of the Sub-Adviser's duties or from reckless disregard by the Sub-Adviser of its duties under this Agreement, the Sub-Adviser will not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Adviser or by the Fund in connection with the performance of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any loss incurred by the Adviser or the Fund as a result of any action taken or failure to act by the Sub-Adviser in good faith reliance upon (i) information, instructions or requests, whether oral or written, that the Sub-Adviser reasonably believes were made by a duly authorized person of the Adviser or the Fund; (ii) the written advice of counsel to the Fund or the Adviser; and (iii) any written instruction or certified copy of any resolution of the Board.
(b) The Fund shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Sub-Adviser, or any member, manager, officer or employee of the Sub-Adviser, and each and all of their affiliates, executors, heirs, assigns, successors or other legal representatives, against any liability or expense to which the person may be liable that arises in connection with the performance of services to the Fund, so long as the liability or expense is not incurred by reason of the person's willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence, or from reckless disregard by such party of its duties to the Fund. The rights of indemnification provided under this Section shall not be construed so as to provide for indemnification of any aforementioned persons for any losses (including any 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 the applicable provisions of this Section to the fullest extent permitted by law.
(c) This Section 10 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.
11. PERMISSIBLE INTERESTS. Trustees, agents, and interest holders of the Fund and the Adviser are or may be interested in the Sub-Adviser (or any successor thereof) as members, managers, officers, or interest holders, or otherwise; members, managers, officers, agents, and interest holders of the Sub-Adviser are or may be interested in the Fund as trustees, interest holders or otherwise; and the Sub-Adviser (or any successor) is or may be interested in the Fund as an interest holder or otherwise.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Fund is a third-party beneficiary as to the covenants, obligations, representations, and warranties undertaken by the Sub-Adviser under this Agreement and as to the rights and privileges to which the Adviser is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, and that the Fund is entitled to all of the rights and privileges associated with such third-party-beneficiary status.
14. NOTICE. Any notice under this Agreement shall be in writing to the other party at such address as the other party may designate from time to time for the receipt of such notice, and shall be deemed to be received on the earlier of the date actually received or on the fourth day after the postmark if such notice is mailed first class postage prepaid.
15. Amendment. No provision of this Agreement may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. Any amendment of this Agreement shall be subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act or any exemptive or other relief therefrom.

8

16. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.
17. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware for contracts to be performed entirely therein without reference to choice of law principles thereof and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the 1940 Act.
18. CHANGE OF CONTROL. The Adviser shall notify the Sub-Adviser in writing at least sixty (60) days in advance of any change of control of the Adviser, as defined in the 1940 Act.
