Disclaimer for European Union Investors:

The Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (the “AIFM Directive”) imposes regulatory requirements with respect to each European Union (“EU”) country. Accordingly, any offering of interests or shares of an investment vehicle (a “Fund”) to prospective investors in the EU must be made in accordance with national private placement marketing rules in force in each EU jurisdiction, which have been amended to comply with the AIFM Directive requirements.

A Fund may permit an investment by an investor located in an EU country even where it does not comply with the national private placement marketing requirements, provided that the investor acknowledges and agrees that none of Boothbay, or any of its directors or officers, any director or officer of a Fund, nor any of their affiliates or representatives, marketed, offered or solicited an investment in the Fund to the investor and the investor agrees that it initiated contact regarding the Fund with Boothbay. Nothing on this website or in this communication is to be construed as an offer of an investment in, or as pertaining to, a Fund.
