Historical Strategy Allocation

 

1  Allocations are subject to change over time.

2  Return Objective - These figures represent estimated return targets based on historical market patterns. There is no assurance that these objectives will be met in an actual portfolio. Volatility Objective – Estimate of the volatility over a full market cycle.  This assumes at least one difficult or crisis period when the volatility and correlation of
returns would increase.

3  Performance figures shown for the period of September 1, 2002 through February 29, 2008 are of the Aetos Capital Prime Portfolio and are net of an investment advisory fee of 1.00% of assets annually and 10% of profits above the three month Treasury bill return, respectively.  Aetos Capital formalized the Aetos Capital Prime Portfolio in
April 2007.  The performance figures shown for periods prior to April 2007 are those of the Aetos Capital Funds comprising the Aetos Capital Prime Portfolio, weighted according to the current allocations.  For periods prior to the inception of the Aetos Capital Opportunities Fund in August 2005, the weightings to the three Aetos Capital Funds
then in existence are increased pro rata.  During the period from September 2002 through April 2007, it is likely that the Aetos Capital Prime Portfolio allocations to the Aetos Capital Funds would have differed from the allocations today, and the performance shown is not necessarily representative of the performance that would have been
achieved had the Aetos Capital Prime Portfolio been in existence during the entire period. The returns also reflect Fund level expenses, some of which have been waived and/or reimbursed by the Investment Adviser.  Returns would have been lower without such waivers and reimbursements.

Absolute return investing involves substantial risks, including the risk of loss of invested capital.  Absolute return investments are typically made through investments in illiquid, unregulated investment funds that employ sophisticated investment techniques, often involving derivatives and leverage, in a wide range of financial instruments and
markets.  These investments entail a wide variety of risks, which remain substantial notwithstanding the risk management practices we employ in selecting and monitoring funds we invest in. (Profile A)

Prospective investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, and the charges and expenses discussed above carefully before investing.  The prospectus contains this and other information; a free copy of the prospectus may be obtained by calling 212-201-2540.  Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.
