THE ENDOWMENT REGISTERED FUND, L.P.

(A Limited Partnership)

Notes to Schedule of Investments

March 31, 2013

(Unaudited)

(1) ORGANIZATION

The Endowment Registered Fund, L.P. (the “Registered Fund”), a Delaware limited partnership registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), commenced operations on March 10, 2004, as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Registered Fund was created to serve as a feeder fund for The Endowment Master Fund, L.P. (the “Master Fund”). For convenience, reference to the Registered Fund may include the Master Fund, as the context requires.

The Registered Fund’s investment objective is to preserve capital and to generate consistent long-term appreciation and returns across a market cycle (which is estimated to be five to seven years). The Registered Fund pursues its investment objective by investing substantially all of its assets in the Master Fund, which invests its assets in a variety of investment vehicles including but not limited to limited partnerships, limited liability companies, offshore corporations and other foreign investment vehicles (collectively, the “Investment Funds”), registered investment companies (including exchange-traded funds) and direct investments in marketable securities and derivative instruments. The Master Fund’s Schedule of Investments and Notes to Schedule of Investments, included elsewhere in this report, should be read in conjunction with this report. The percentage of the Master Fund’s partnership interests owned by the Registered Fund on March 31, 2013, was 41.71%.

The board of directors (each member thereof a “Director” and, collectively, the “Board”) is authorized to engage an investment adviser and it has selected Endowment Advisers, L.P. (the “Adviser”), to manage the Registered Fund’s portfolio and operations, pursuant to an investment management agreement (the “Investment Management Agreement”). The Adviser is a Delaware limited partnership that is registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. Under the Investment Management Agreement, the Adviser is responsible for the establishment of an investment committee, which is responsible for developing, implementing, and supervising the Registered Fund’s investment program subject to the ultimate supervision of the Board. In addition to investment advisory services, the Adviser also functions as the servicing agent of the Registered Fund (the “Servicing Agent”) and as such provides or procures investor services and administrative assistance for the Registered Fund. The Adviser can delegate all or a portion of its duties as Servicing Agent to other parties, who would in turn act as sub-servicing agents.

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

The accounting and reporting policies of the Registered Fund conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

(b) INVESTMENT SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS

The Registered Fund records security transactions on a trade-date basis.

Investments that are held by the Registered Fund are marked to fair value at the reporting date.

(c) VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS

The Board has formed a valuation committee (the “Board Valuation Committee”) that is responsible for overseeing the Registered Fund’s valuation policies, making recommendations to the Board on valuation-related matters, and overseeing implementation by the Adviser of such valuation policies.

(Unaudited)

 

The Board has also authorized the Adviser to establish a valuation committee of the Adviser (the “Adviser Valuation Committee”). The function of the Adviser Valuation Committee, subject to the oversight of the Board Valuation Committee and the Board, is generally to review valuation methodologies, valuation determinations, and any information provided to the Adviser Valuation Committee by the Adviser or Citi Fund Services Ohio, Inc., the Registered Fund’s independent administrator (the “Independent Administrator”).

The Registered Fund invests substantially all of its assets in the Master Fund. Investments in the Master Fund are recorded at fair value based on the Registered Fund’s proportional share of the Master Fund’s partners’ capital. Valuation of the investments held by the Master Fund is discussed in the Master Fund’s Notes to Schedule of Investments included elsewhere in this report.

(d) USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the Schedule of Investments in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the Schedule of Investments. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences may be significant.

(3) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Registered Fund records its investment in the Master Fund at fair value. Investments of the Master Fund are recorded at fair value as more fully discussed in the Master Fund’s Notes to Schedule of Investments, included elsewhere in this report.

(4) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK

In the normal course of business, the Investment Funds in which the Registered Fund may invest either directly or through the Master Fund may trade various derivative securities and other financial instruments, and enter into various investment activities with off-balance sheet risk both as an investor and as a principal. The Registered Fund’s risk of loss in these Investment Funds is limited to the Registered Fund’s pro rata share of the value of its investment in or commitment to such Investment Funds as held directly or through the Master Fund. In addition, the Master Fund may invest directly in derivative securities or other financial instruments to gain greater or lesser exposure to a particular asset class.

(a)

When a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of the swap agreement, the Master Fund as a seller of credit protection will either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the par value of the defaulted reference entity and take delivery of the reference entity or (ii) pay a net amount equal to the par value of the defaulted reference entity less its recovery value.

(b)

Implied credit spread, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the market value of the credit default swap agreements as of period end serves as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represents the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. Generally, wider credit spreads represent a perceived deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the swap agreement.

(c)

The notional amount represents the maximum potential amount the Master Fund could be required to make as a seller of credit protection if a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of the swap agreement.

(d) 

Value includes upfront payments paid (received) and unrealized gain (loss).

THE ENDOWMENT MASTER FUND, L.P.

(A Limited Partnership)

Notes to Schedule of Investments

March 31, 2013

(Unaudited)

(1) ORGANIZATION

The Endowment Master Fund, L.P. (the “Master Fund”), a Delaware limited partnership, commenced operations on April 1, 2003. The Master Fund operated as an unregistered investment vehicle until March 10, 2004, at which time it registered as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Master Fund is the master fund in a master-feeder structure in which there are currently nine feeder funds.

The Master Fund’s investment objective is to preserve capital and to generate consistent long-term appreciation and returns across a market cycle (which is estimated to be five to seven years). The Master Fund is primarily a “fund of funds” which pursues its investment objective by investing its assets in a variety of investment vehicles including, but not limited to, limited partnerships, limited liability companies, offshore corporations and other foreign investment vehicles (collectively, the “Investment Funds”), registered investment companies (including exchange-traded funds) and direct investments in marketable securities and derivative instruments. The Investment Funds are managed by a carefully selected group of investment managers, identified by the Adviser, as hereinafter defined. The various styles and strategies employed by the Investment Funds and supplemented by the Master Fund’s direct investments, serve to achieve a portfolio that is broadly allocated.

The Endowment Fund GP, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, serves as the general partner of the Master Fund (the “General Partner”). To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the General Partner has irrevocably delegated to a board of directors (the “Board” and each member a “Director”) its rights and powers to monitor and oversee the business affairs of the Master Fund, including the complete and exclusive authority to oversee and establish policies regarding the management, conduct, and operation of the Master Fund’s business. A majority of the members of the Board are independent of the General Partner and its management. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Board may delegate any of its rights, powers and authority to, among others, the officers of the Master Fund, the Adviser, as hereinafter defined, or any committee of the Board.

The Board is authorized to engage an investment adviser, and pursuant to an investment management agreement, (the “Investment Management Agreement”), it has selected Endowment Advisers, L.P. (the “Adviser”), to manage the Master Fund’s portfolio and operations. The Adviser is a Delaware limited partnership that is registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. Under the Investment Management Agreement, the Adviser is responsible for the establishment of an investment committee (the “Investment Committee”), which is responsible for developing, implementing, and supervising the Master Fund’s investment program subject to the ultimate supervision of the Board.

Under the Master Fund’s organizational documents, the Master Fund’s Directors and officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Master Fund. In the normal course of business, the Master Fund enters into contracts with service providers, which also provide for indemnifications by the Master Fund. The Master Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve any future potential claims that may be made against the Master Fund. However, based on experience, the General Partner expects that risk of loss to be remote.

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

The accounting and reporting policies of the Master Fund conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

(b) CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Master Fund considers all unpledged temporary cash investments with a maturity date at the time of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

(c) INVESTMENT SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS

The Master Fund records security transactions on a trade-date basis.

Investments that are held by the Master Fund, including those that have been sold short, are marked to fair value at the reporting date.

(d) VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS

The valuation of the Master Fund’s investments is determined as of the close of business at the end of each reporting period, generally monthly. The valuation of the Master Fund’s investments is calculated by Citi Fund Services Ohio, Inc., the Master Fund’s independent administrator (the “Independent Administrator”).

The Board has formed a valuation committee (the “Board Valuation Committee”) that is responsible for overseeing the Master Fund’s valuation policies, making recommendations to the Board on valuation-related matters, and overseeing implementation by the Adviser of such valuation policies.

The Board has also authorized the Adviser to establish a valuation committee of the Adviser (the “Adviser Valuation Committee”). The function of the Adviser Valuation Committee, subject to the oversight of the Board Valuation Committee and the Board, is generally to review valuation methodologies, valuation determinations, and any information provided to the Adviser Valuation Committee by the Adviser or the Independent Administrator.

Investments currently held by the Master Fund are valued as follows:

 

   

INVESTMENT FUNDS—Investments in Investment Funds are carried at fair value, using the net asset value (the “NAV”) as a practical expedient, as provided to the Independent Administrator by the investment managers of such Investment Funds or the administrators of such Investment Funds. These Investment Funds value their underlying investments in accordance with policies established by such Investment Funds. Prior to investing in any Investment Fund, the Adviser Valuation Committee, as part of the due diligence process, conducts a review of the valuation methodologies employed by the Investment Fund to determine whether such methods are appropriate for the asset types. All of the Master Fund’s valuations utilize financial information supplied by each Investment Fund and are net of management and estimated performance incentive fees or allocations payable to the Investment Funds’ managers pursuant to the Investment Funds’ agreements. Generally, Investment Funds in which the Master Fund invests will use market value when available, and otherwise will use principles of fair value applied in good faith. The Adviser Valuation Committee will consider whether it is appropriate, in light of the relevant circumstances, to value interests at NAV as reported by an Investment Fund for valuation purposes, or whether to adjust such reported value to reflect an adjusted fair value. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, fair value may differ significantly from the value that would have been used had readily available markets for the investments in Investment Funds

existed. The Master Fund’s investments in Investment Funds are subject to the terms and conditions of the respective operating agreements and offering memoranda of such Investment Funds. Investment Funds are typically categorized as Level 2 or 3 in the fair value hierarchy based upon liquidity.

 

   

SECURITIES LISTED ON A SECURITIES EXCHANGE OR OVER-THE-COUNTER EXCHANGES— In general, the Master Fund values those securities at their last sales price on the exchange or over-the-counter exchange on the valuation date. If the security is listed on more than one exchange, the Master Fund uses the price from the exchange that is considered to be the principal exchange where the security is principally traded. If there have been no sales for that day on the exchange where the security is principally traded, then the price of the security will be valued at the mean between the closing “bid” and “ask” prices on the valuation date. In these situations, valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Securities traded on a foreign securities exchange will generally be valued at their closing prices on the exchange where such securities are primarily traded and translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate. If an event occurred between the close of the foreign exchange and the valuation date of the Master Fund’s net asset value that would materially affect the value of the security and the net asset value of the Master Fund, the value of such security and the net asset value of the Master Fund will be adjusted to reflect the change in the estimated value of the security. Such fair valued securities are typically categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, based upon the inputs used to value the options.

 

   

DERIVATIVES—Derivatives are generally valued using independent pricing services or other procedures approved by the Board. Exchange traded futures contracts are valued using quoted final settlement prices from the national exchange on which they are principally traded and are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Options that are listed on a securities exchange are generally valued at the closing “bid” and “ask” prices for options held long and short, respectively on the date of determination and are typically categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. If no such sales price, bid or ask price is reported by such exchanges on the valuation date, the Adviser Valuation Committee and/or the Board Valuation Committee will determine the fair value in good faith using information that is available at such time. Such fair valued options are typically categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, based upon the inputs used to value the investments.

 

   

OTHER— Investments in open-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of the day NAV per share and are categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Where no value is readily available from an Investment Fund or other security or where a value supplied by an Investment Fund is deemed not to be indicative of the Investment Fund’s value, the Adviser Valuation Committee and/or the Board Valuation Committee, in consultation with the Independent Administrator or the Adviser will determine, in good faith, the fair value of the Investment Fund or security. Such fair valued investments are typically categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, based upon the inputs used to value the investments.

Fixed-income securities are valued according to prices as furnished by an independent pricing service or broker/dealer quotes and are typically categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

 

   

SECURITIES NOT ACTIVELY TRADED—The value of securities, derivatives or synthetic securities that are not actively traded on an exchange shall be determined by obtaining quotes from brokers that normally deal in such securities or by an unaffiliated pricing service that may use actual trade data or procedures using market indices, matrices, yield curves, specific trading characteristics of certain groups of securities, pricing models or a combination of these

procedures. In each of these situations, valuations are typically categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Securities for which independent pricing services are not available are valued by the Adviser Valuation Committee and/or the Board Valuation Committee pursuant to the fair valuation procedures approved by the Board and are typically categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, based upon the inputs used to value the investments.

(e) FOREIGN CURRENCY

The accounting records of the Master Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at current exchange rates on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investments and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the exchange rate on the respective dates of such transactions.

(f) DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

All open derivative positions at quarter-end are presented in the Master Fund’s Schedule of Investments. In addition to the derivatives held by the Master Fund, the Investment Funds may have directly engaged in derivative transactions during the period. The following is a description of the derivative instruments that the Master Fund utilizes as part of an asset overlay strategy to create investment exposure consistent with the Master Fund’s investment objectives, including the primary underlying risk exposures related to each instrument type.

OPTIONS—The Master Fund invests in options contracts to speculate on the price movements of a financial instrument or for use as an economic hedge against certain positions held in the Master Fund’s portfolio. Options contracts purchased give the Master Fund the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell the underlying instrument for a specified price upon exercise at any time during the option period. Options contracts written obligate the Master Fund to buy or sell the underlying instrument for a specified price upon exercise at any time during the option period. When the Master Fund writes an options contract, an amount equal to the premium received by the Master Fund is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current fair value of the option contract written.

FUTURES CONTRACTS—The Master Fund invests in futures contracts to gain exposure to, or hedge against, changes in the value of equities, commodities, interest rates or foreign markets. A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or sale of an asset at a specified price on a specified date. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Master Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount (initial margin deposit). In general, payments are made by the Master Fund to the broker if total value falls below the initial margin when marked to the closing price at the end of each day. The underlying securities are not physically delivered. The Master Fund recognizes a gain or loss equal to the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security. Should market conditions move unexpectedly, the Master Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and may realize a loss. The use of futures transactions involves, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (generally equity price risk related to stock index or equity futures contracts, interest rate risk related to bond futures contracts, and commodity price risk related to commodity futures contracts) and exposure to loss. The face or contract amounts reflect the extent of the total exposure the Master Fund has in the particular classes of instruments. Among other risks, the use of futures contracts may cause the Master Fund to have imperfect correlation due to differences between movements in the price of the futures contracts and the market value of the underlying securities and the possibility of an illiquid market for a futures contract. With futures contracts, there is minimal counterparty risk to the Master Fund since the futures contracts are exchange-traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as the counterparty to all exchange-traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.

SWAP AGREEMENTS—The Master Fund invests in swap agreements, primarily credit default and total return swap agreements, as a part of its hedging strategy to manage credit and market risks. As of March 31, 2013, the Master Fund invested in credit default and total return swap agreements.

A credit default swap agreement gives one party (the buyer) the right to recoup the economic value of a decline in the value of debt securities of the reference issuer if a credit event (a downgrade, bankruptcy or default) occurs. This value is obtained by delivering a debt security of the reference issuer to the party in return for a previously agreed upon payment from the other party (frequently, the par value of the debt security) or receive a net amount equal to the par value of the defaulted reference entity less its recovery value. The Master Fund is usually a net seller of credit default swap agreements.

The Master Fund as a seller of a credit default swap agreement would have the right to pay the par (or other agreed-upon) value of a referenced debt obligation to the counterparty in the event of a default or other credit event by the reference issuer with respect to its debt obligations. In return, the Master Fund would receive from the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the agreement provided that no event of default or other credit event has occurred. If no default or other credit event occurs, the Master Fund would keep the stream of payments and would have no further obligations to the counterparty. As a seller, the Master Fund would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap.

A total return swap agreement is a bilateral financial contract agreement where one party (the payer) agrees to pay the other (the receiver) the total return on a specified asset or index in exchange for a fixed or floating rate of return. A total return swap agreement allows the receiver or payer to derive the economic benefit of owning or having short exposure to an asset without owning or shorting the underlying asset directly. The receiver is entitled to the amount, if any, by which the notional amount of the total return swap agreement would have increased in value had it been invested in the particular instruments, plus an amount equal to any dividends or interest that would have been received on those instruments. In return, the payer is entitled to an amount equal to a fixed or floating rate of interest (e.g., a LIBOR based rate) on the notional amount of the swap agreement plus the amount, if any, by which the notional amount would have decreased in value had it been invested in such instruments, less any dividends or interest. The amounts to which each party is entitled are normally netted against each other, at periodic settlement dates, resulting in a single amount that is either due to or from each party.

In addition to being exposed to the credit risk of the underlying reference entity, swap agreements are subject to counterparty risk, market risk and interest rate risk. Swap agreements utilized by the Master Fund may not perform as expected. Risks may arise as a result of the failure of the counterparty (Protection Seller) to perform under the agreement. The loss incurred by the failure of a counterparty is generally limited to the market value and premium amounts recorded. The Master Fund considers the creditworthiness of each counterparty to a swap agreement in evaluating potential credit risk. Additionally, risks may arise from the unanticipated movements in interest rates or in the value of the underlying reference securities. The Master Fund may use various techniques to minimize credit risk including early termination or reset and payment. Collateral, in the form of cash, is held in broker segregated accounts for swap agreements.

The following is a summary of the fair value of derivative instruments held directly by the Master Fund as of March 31, 2013. These derivatives are presented in the Schedule of Investments.

(g) CFTC Regulation

On February 9, 2012, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”) proposed rules meant to harmonize conflicting Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and CFTC disclosure, reporting and recordkeeping requirements. The Master Fund is not required to comply with the CFTC’s disclosure, reporting or recordkeeping requirements until the CFTC adopts final harmonization rules. Once harmonization rules are ultimately adopted by the CFTC, the Master Fund will need to comply with all applicable regulations governing registered investment companies that are subject to regulation as commodity pools. It is unclear in what form the final harmonization rules, which are subject to pending litigation that challenges the validity of the rules, will be adopted and the impact such rules will have on the Master Fund. However, these regulatory changes may ultimately cause the Master Fund to incur additional regulatory compliance and reporting expenses, and, with respect to swap agreements and other over-the-counter instruments in which the Master Fund may invest, may cause counterparties to increase collateral or margin requirements, increase fees charged to the Master Fund or be less willing to enter into these agreements with the Master Fund in the future. The effects of the regulatory changes could reduce investment returns or harm the Master Fund’s ability to implement its investment strategy.

On November 30, 2012 the CFTC issued relief for fund of fund operators who may otherwise be required to register with the CFTC as commodity pool operators by December 31, 2012 but do not have access to information from the investment funds in which they are invested in order to determine whether registration is required. This relief delays the registration date for such operators until the later of June 30, 2013 or six months from the date the CFTC issues revised guidance on the application of certain thresholds with respect to investments in commodities held by funds of funds. As of December 31, 2012, the Master Fund filed as required with the CFTC in order to claim this no-action relief, which was effective upon receipt of the filing.

(h) USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the Schedule of Investments in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the Schedule of Investments. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences may be significant.

(3) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Master Fund defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions.

The inputs used to determine the fair value of the Master Fund’s investments are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

• Level 1—

 

unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets

• Level 2—

 

investments with other significant observable inputs or investments that can be fully redeemed at the NAV in the “near term”

• Level 3—

 

investments with significant unobservable inputs (which may include the Master Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) or investments that cannot be fully redeemed at the NAV in the “near term”; these are investments that generally have one or more of the following characteristics: gated redemptions, suspended redemptions, or have lock-up periods greater than quarterly (or monthly for underlying investments where the Master Fund owns more than 25% of the Investment Fund’s total net assets).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments.

The following is a summary categorization, as of March 31, 2013, of the Master Fund’s investments based on the level of inputs utilized in determining the value of such investments:

Other financial instruments include any derivative instruments not reflected in the Schedule of Investments as Investments in Securities, such as futures contracts and swap agreements. These financial instruments are generally recorded in the financial statements at the unrealized gain or loss on the financial instrument.

The categorization of investments amongst Levels 1 through 3 does not reflect the fact that many of the underlying investments held by the Investment Funds included in Level 3, if owned directly by the Master Fund, may be classified as Level 1 or Level 2 investments.

Amounts represent adjustments, if any, made to NAV provided by the investment manager or administrator of the Investment Funds. Adjustments to the practical expedient NAV may be made under certain circumstances including, but not limited to, the following: the practical expedient NAV received is not as of the Master Fund’s measurement date; it is probable that the Investment Fund will be sold at a value significantly different than the reported expedient NAV; it is determined by the Board Valuation Committee that the Investment Fund is not being valued at fair value by the Investment Fund manager.

The Master Fund discloses transfers between levels based on valuations at the end of the reporting period. Transfers that occurred between Levels 2 and 3 as of March 31, 2013, based on levels assigned to Investments on December 31, 2012, are included in the table below.

Transfers from Level 2 to Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy generally relate to liquidity provisions of the Investment Funds.

**

Includes Return of Capital and Capital Gain Distributions.

The change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation from Level 3 investments held at March 31, 2013, is $(27,209,468).

The Master Fund is permitted to invest in alternative investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value. For an investment that does not have a readily determinable fair value, the Master Fund uses the NAV reported by the Investment Fund as a practical expedient, without further adjustments, unless it is probable that the investment will be sold at a value significantly different than the NAV. If the practical expedient NAV is not as of the reporting entity’s measurement date, then the reported NAV is adjusted to reflect any significant events that would materially affect the value of the security and the NAV of the Master Fund as of the valuation date.

Certain Investment Funds in which the Master Fund invests have limitations on liquidity which may result in limitations on redemptions including, but not limited to, early redemption fees. Other than Investment Funds that are self-liquidating, such as Private Equity and some Energy, Natural Resources and Real Estate Funds, the Investment Funds in which the Master Fund invests have withdrawal rights ranging from monthly to annually, after a notice period, usually for a period of up to two years from the date of the initial investment or an additional investment. A listing of the investments held by the Master Fund and their attributes as of March 31, 2013, that may qualify for this valuation approach is shown in the table below.

The information summarized in the table above represents the general terms for the specified asset class. Individual Investment Funds may have terms that are more or less restrictive than those terms indicated for the asset class as a whole. In addition, most Investment Funds have the flexibility, as provided for in their constituent documents, to modify and waive such terms.

(a)

This category includes Investment Funds that invest using two primary Styles (Event-Driven and Relative Value). Event-Driven strategies typically will include investments in common and preferred equities and various types of debt (often based on the probability that a particular event will occur). These may include distressed or Special Situations investments (securities of companies that are experiencing difficult business situations). Relative Value strategies may include long and short positions in common and preferred equity, convertible securities, and various forms of senior and junior (typically unsecured) debt. Investments under this style may also include index options, options on futures contracts, and other derivatives.

(b)

This category includes Investment Funds that invest primarily in publicly-traded equity securities issued by U.S. companies. These securities will typically trade on one of the major U.S. stock exchanges. Investment Funds in this category may include long/short funds, mutual funds and exchange-traded funds.

(c)

This category includes Investment Funds that invest primarily in publicly-traded securities issued by companies in the energy sector, private investments in energy-related assets or companies, and futures in energy commodity markets. The Investment Funds include private funds which may hold long/ short equities, commodity trading advisers (“CTAs”) trading contracts on energy related commodities, mutual funds or exchange-traded funds, and private partnerships with private investments in their portfolios.

(d)

This category includes Investment Funds that invest primarily in the following sectors: secured leveraged loans, high yield bonds, distressed debt, structured credit, and global debt (typically less efficient areas of the global fixed income markets than traditional fixed income strategies). Generally these sectors may be heavily weighted to certain industries such as telecom and technology with lower credit rating ranges (including leveraged buyouts), may include distressed debt strategies and may include restricted securities and securities that may not be registered for which a market may not be readily available.

(e)

This category includes Investment Funds that invest in global markets and across all security types including equities, fixed income, derivatives, commodities, currencies, futures, and exchange-traded funds. Investment Funds in this category are typically private funds and may include global long/short equity funds, global macro funds, and CTA’s.

(f)

This category includes Investment Funds that invest primarily in publicly-traded equity securities issued by foreign companies or securities issued on U.S. stock exchanges that represent ownership of a foreign corporation. Investment Funds in this category may include long/ short funds, mutual funds, and exchange-traded funds.

(g)

This category includes Investment Funds that invest primarily in assets with exposure to non-energy natural resources, including gold and other precious metals, industrial metals, and agricultural commodities. The Investment Funds may include private funds invested in long/ short equities; CTA’s trading contracts on agricultural commodities, mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, and private partnerships with private investments in their portfolios.

(h)

This category includes private equity funds that invest primarily in non-publicly traded companies in need of capital. These Investment Funds may vary widely as to sector, size, stage, duration, and liquidity. Certain of these Investment Funds may also focus on the secondary market, buying interests in existing private equity funds, often at a discount.

(i)

This category includes Investment Funds that invest in registered investment companies or managers that invest in real estate trusts (commonly known as “REITs”) and private partnerships that make investments in income producing properties, raw land held for development or appreciation, and various types of mortgage loans and common or preferred stock whose operations involve real estate.

(4) INVESTMENTS IN PORTFOLIO SECURITIES

(a) INVESTMENT ACTIVITY

The cost of the Master Fund’s underlying investments for Federal income tax purposes is adjusted for items of taxable income allocated to the Master Fund from such investments. The allocated taxable income is generally reported to the Master Fund by its underlying investments on Schedules K-1, Forms 1099 or PFIC statements, or a combination thereof.

The underlying investments generally do not provide the Master Fund with tax reporting information until well after year end, and as a result, the Master Fund is unable to calculate the year end tax cost of its investments until well after year end. The Master Fund’s book cost as of March 31, 2013, was $2,304,095,295, resulting in accumulated net unrealized appreciation of $193,082,860 consisting of $411,715,092 in gross unrealized appreciation and $218,632,232 in gross unrealized depreciation.

(b) INVESTMENT FUND LIQUIDITY

Certain Investment Funds in which the Master Fund invests have restrictions on liquidity which may result in limitations or restrictions on redemptions including, but not limited to, lock-ups, notice periods and early redemption fees. The Master Fund’s investments are grouped in three categories of liquidity, as determined by the Adviser. To better manage the Master Fund’s liquidity, the Adviser has also structured the portfolio’s capital into the liquidity categories listed below. The categories and percent of investments in each are as follows at March 31, 2013:

 

Liquidity Categories*

   Total

(b) 

    56.0%       Securities and derivatives activity or Investment Funds that settle three business days after trade date (“T+3”) and that have at least quarterly withdrawal rights and not more than a one-year lock-up period remaining.

Category 2 Assets(c)

    

 

0.00%-

90.00%

  

(b) 

    6.9%       Investment Funds that allow for periodic withdrawals at the time of investment but do not meet the qualifications for Category 1 Assets due to frequency of redemptions allowed or extended lock-up periods remaining.

(b) 
    37.1% **    Investment Funds that are self-liquidating (e.g., private equity funds), or that otherwise fail to meet the definition of Category 1 or 2 Assets. Also includes Investment Funds that only make distributions as the underlying portfolio’s assets or investments are liquidated (i.e., the investor in such Investment Funds does not have the right to request withdrawals on any specified periodic basis).
    

 

 

   
       100.00%     
    

 

 

   

 

*

The expiration or implementation of lock-up periods on Master Fund investments in an Investment Fund could result in such investments moving from one liquidity category to another.

**

If at the end of any calendar quarter the Master Fund is not in compliance with the weighting of Category 3 Assets, the Master Fund will endeavor to bring its portfolio back into compliance with these requirements, taking into consideration the best interests of all investors, and during such time will not commit any additional capital to Category 3 Assets. During such time, the Master Fund may fund existing capital commitments to Investment Funds comprising Category 3 Assets. The Master Fund’s portfolio currently is above the desired weighting in Category 3 Assets. The Master Fund is currently funding existing capital commitments to Investment Funds comprising Category 3 Assets, but is not currently committing additional capital to Category 3 Assets.

 

(a) 

Category 1 Assets are defined as cash, money market funds, and exchange-traded securities including, but not limited to equities, bonds, notes, mutual funds, ETFs, options (including OTC), and derivatives. Investment Funds with investor-level gates, fund-level gates, redemption fees and/or penalties, sidepockets and/or special purpose vehicles housing less liquid investments may be included in this category as long as they have at least quarterly withdrawal rights with a year or less lockup remaining.

(b) 

The Master Fund may not have less than 10% of its capital invested in cash and securities with T+3 liquidity, which are included in Category 1 Assets, or more than 25% of its capital invested in Category 3 Assets, with all remaining capital invested in Category 1 Assets or Category 2 Assets.

(c) 

Category 2 Assets also may have investor-level gates, fund-level gates, redemption fees and/or penalties, sidepockets and/or special purpose vehicles housing less liquid investments. Sidepockets and/or special purpose vehicles (and any similar interest or investments, including certain types of distributions in-kind) remaining upon redemption from an Investment Fund categorized as Category 1 Assets or Category 2 Assets (collectively, “Residual Interests”), shall also each be conclusively deemed to be Category 2 Assets unless the Adviser reasonably concludes that the majority of such Residual Interests will not become liquid within three years, in which case the Adviser will categorize such Residual Interests as Category 3 Assets.

(d) 

Category 3 Assets may include, without limitation, private equity funds, real estate funds, or natural resources or energy funds that only make distributions when an investment is monetized or generates cash flow through distributions, dividends, etc. This category will be calculated as the lesser of: (a) the amount of called and invested capital or (b) the fair value of the interests in such Investment Funds. Any standard and customary audit hold-backs which remain after redeeming from an Investment Fund included in Category 1 Assets or Category 2 Assets will be classified as Category 1 Assets. Any other holdings which remain (e.g., “sidepockets” and/or other Residual Interests) will be classified as Category 2 Assets if the Adviser reasonably concludes that the majority of such holdings will become liquid within three years; otherwise, such holdings will be classified as Category 3 Assets.

(c) AFFILIATED INVESTMENT FUNDS

At March 31, 2013, the Master Fund’s investments in certain Investment Funds were deemed to be investments in affiliated issuers under the 1940 Act, primarily because the Master Fund owns 5% or more of the Investment Funds’ total net assets. A listing of these affiliated Investment Funds (including 2013 activity) is shown below:
