No Director shall have the authority individually to act on behalf of or to bind the Fund except within the scope of such Director’s authority as delegated by the Board of Directors. The parties hereto intend that, except to the extent otherwise expressly provided herein, (i) each Director shall be vested with the same powers, authority and responsibilities on behalf of the Fund as are customarily vested in each director of a Delaware corporation organized under the Delaware General Corporation Law, (ii) each Director shall be vested with the same powers, authority and responsibilities on behalf of the Fund as are customarily vested in each director of a closed-end management investment company registered under the 1940 Act that is organized as a Delaware corporation, and (iii) each Independent Director shall be vested with the same powers, authority and responsibilities on behalf of the Fund as are customarily vested in each director of a closed-end management investment company registered under the 1940 Act that is organized as a Delaware corporation who is not an “interested person” of such company as such term is defined by the 1940 Act. During any period in which the Fund shall have no Directors, the Management Services Provider shall continue to serve as the Management Services Provider to the Fund and to provide the Management Services to the Fund.

Limited Liability Company Agreement   


(c) The Board of Directors may create one or more committees consisting of one or more Directors, and it may delegate to any other Person any rights, power and authority vested by this Agreement in the Board of Directors to the extent permissible under applicable law, and may appoint persons to serve as officers of the Fund, with such titles and authority as may be determined by the Board of Directors consistent with applicable law and this Agreement.

 

(d) The Board of Directors shall have full power and authority to adopt By-Laws providing for the conduct of the business of the Fund and containing such other provisions as they deem necessary, appropriate or desirable, subject to the voting powers of one or more classes created pursuant to this Section 3.1, to amend and repeal such By-Laws; provided, however, that, to the extent the By-Laws are inconsistent with the terms or provisions of this Agreement, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control. Unless the By-Laws specifically require that Members authorize or approve the amendment or repeal of a particular provision of the By-Laws or otherwise required by the 1940 Act, any provision of the By-Laws may be amended or repealed by the Board of Directors without Member authorization or approval.

 

(e) The Board of Directors shall have the full power and authority, without Member approval, subject to applicable law, to authorize one or more classes of Shares; Shares of each such class having such preferences, voting powers and special or relative rights or privileges (including conversion rights, if any) as the Board of Directors may determine and as shall be set forth in a resolution adopted in accordance with this Agreement and, if applicable, the By-Laws. The Board of Directors may, without Member approval, amend this Agreement to provide for the terms of such class or classes or provide for the terms of such class or classes in a written plan adopted by the Board of Directors pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act.

SECTION 3.2 Actions by the Board of Directors

 

(a) Except as otherwise required by the 1940 Act and unless provided otherwise in this Agreement, the Board of Directors shall act only: (i) by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Directors (including the vote of a majority of the Independent Directors if required by the 1940 Act) present at a meeting duly called at which a quorum of the Directors shall be present (in person or, if in person attendance is not required by the 1940 Act, by telephone or other electronic means by which all persons entitled to vote at the meeting my hear one another) or (ii) by unanimous written consent of all of the Directors without a meeting, if permissible under the 1940 Act.

 

(b) The Board of Directors may designate from time to time a Principal Director who shall preside at all meetings. Meetings of the Board of Directors may be called by the Principal Director or by any two Directors, and may be held on such date and at such time and place as the Board of Directors shall determine. Each Director shall be entitled to receive written notice of the date, time and place of such meeting within a reasonable time in advance of the meeting. Except as otherwise required by the 1940 Act, notice need not be given to any Director who shall attend a meeting without objecting to the lack of notice or who shall execute a written waiver of notice with respect to the meeting. Directors may attend and participate in any meeting by telephone or other electronic means except where in person attendance at a meeting is required by the 1940 Act. A majority of the Directors shall constitute a quorum at any meeting.

Limited Liability Company Agreement   


(b) Each Officer shall hold office until his successor is elected or appointed or until his earlier displacement from office by resignation, removal or otherwise; provided, that if the term of office of any Officer shall have been fixed by the Board of Directors, or by an Officer acting under authority delegated by the Board of Directors, such Officer shall cease to hold such office no later than the date of expiration of such term, regardless of whether any other person shall have been elected or appointed to succeed him. Any Officer may resign at any time by written notice to the Fund. Any Officer may be removed at any time by the Board of Directors or by an Officer acting under authority delegated by the Board of Directors if in its or his judgment the best interest of the Fund would be served thereby, but such removal shall be without prejudice to the contract rights, if any, of the person so removed. Election or appointment of an Officer shall not of itself create contract rights between the Fund and such Officer.

 

(c) If the office of any Officer becomes vacant for any reason, the vacancy may be filled by the Board of Directors or by the Officer acting under authority delegated by the Board of Directors. Each Officer elected or appointed to fill a vacancy shall hold office for the balance of the term for which his predecessor was elected or appointed.

 

(d) All Officers as between themselves and the Fund shall have such powers, perform such duties and be subject to such restrictions, if any, in the management of the Fund as may be provided in this Agreement or, to the extent not so provided, as may be prescribed by the Board of Directors or by the Officer acting under authority delegated by the Board of Directors.

SECTION 3.4 Meetings of Members

 

(a) Actions requiring the vote of the Members may be taken at any duly constituted meeting of the Members at which a quorum is present. Meetings of the Members may be called by the Board of Directors or by Members holding 25% or more of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by all Members, and may be held at such time, date and place as the Board of Directors shall determine. The Board of Directors shall arrange to provide written notice of the meeting, stating the date, time and place of the meeting and the record date therefor, to each Member entitled to vote at the meeting within a reasonable time prior thereto. Failure to receive notice of a meeting on the part of any Member shall not affect the validity of any act or proceeding of the meeting, so long as a quorum shall be present at the meeting, except as otherwise required by applicable law. Only matters set forth in the notice of a meeting may be voted on by the Members at a meeting. The presence in person or by proxy of Members holding a majority of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by all Members as of the record date shall constitute a quorum at any meeting. In the absence of a quorum, a meeting of the Members may be adjourned by action of Members present at such meeting in person or by proxy holding a majority of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by such Members, without additional notice to the Members. Except as otherwise required by any provision of this Agreement or of the 1940 Act, (i) those candidates receiving a plurality of the votes cast at any meeting of Members shall be elected as Directors and (ii) all other actions of the Members taken at a meeting shall require the affirmative vote of Members holding a majority of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by those Members who are present in person or by proxy at such meeting. In the event the Fund invests in another registered investment company pursuant to Section 12(d)(1)(F) of the 1940 Act, and such other registered investment company holds a meeting (other than to vote on the termination of such registered investment company’s business, which may be determined by the Board of Directors), the Fund shall either seek instructions from its Members with regard to the voting of all proxies with respect to such Security and to vote such proxies only in accordance with such instructions, or to vote the shares held by it in the same proportion as the vote of all other holders of such Security.

 

(b) Each Member shall be entitled to cast at any meeting of Members a number of votes equal to the number of such Member’s Shares as of the record date for such meeting. The Board of Directors shall establish a record date not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the date of any meeting of Members as the record date for determining eligibility to vote at such meeting and the number of votes that each Member will be entitled to cast at the meeting, and shall maintain for each such record date a list setting forth the name of each Member and the number of votes that each Member will be entitled to cast at the meeting.

(c) A Member may vote at any meeting of Members by a proxy, provided that such proxy is authorized to act by (i) a written instrument properly executed by the Member and filed with the Fund before or at the time of the meeting or (ii) such electronic, telephonic, computerized or other alternative means as may be approved by a resolution adopted by the Board of Directors. A proxy may be suspended or revoked, as the case may be, by the Member executing the proxy by a later writing delivered to the Fund at any time prior to exercise of the proxy or if the Member executing the proxy shall be present at the meeting and decide to vote in person. Any action of the Members that is permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Members may be taken without a meeting if consents in writing, setting forth the action taken, are signed by Members holding a majority of the total number of votes eligible to be cast or such greater percent Members having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all Shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. The Board of Directors may establish a record date for such vote not less than 2 days nor more than 90 days prior to the date such request for consent is first mailed as the record date for determining eligibility to consent and the number of votes that each Member will be entitled to give its consent with respect to, and shall maintain for each record date a list setting forth the name of each Member and the number of votes to which each Member will be entitled.

SECTION 3.5 Custody of Assets of the Fund

The physical possession of all funds, Securities or other properties of the Fund shall at all times, be held, controlled and administered by one or more custodians retained by the Fund in accordance with the requirements of the 1940 Act and the rules thereunder.

SECTION 3.6 Other Activities of Members, Officers and Directors

 

(a) The Directors and Officers shall not be required to devote full time to the affairs of the Fund, but shall devote such time as may reasonably be required to perform their obligations under this Agreement.

 

(b) Any Member, Officer or Director, and any Affiliate of any Member, Officer or Director, may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures or commercial dealings of every kind and description, independently or with others, including, but not limited to, acquisition and disposition of Securities, provision of investment advisory or brokerage services, serving as directors, officers, employees, advisors or agents of other companies, partners of any partnership, members of any limited liability company, or trustees of any trust, or entering into any other commercial arrangements. No Member, Officer or Director shall have any rights in or to such activities of any other Member, Officer or Director, or any profits derived therefrom.

SECTION 3.7 Duty of Care

 

(a) A Director or Officer shall not be liable to the Fund or to any of its Members for any loss or damage occasioned by any act or omission in the performance of his or her services under this Agreement, unless it shall be determined by final judicial decision on the merits from which there is no further right to appeal that such loss is due to an act or omission of such Director or Officer constituting willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such Director’s or Officer’s office.

 

(b) Members not in breach of any obligation hereunder or under any agreement pursuant to which the Member subscribed for Shares shall be liable to the Fund, any Member or third parties only as provided under the Delaware Act.

SECTION 3.8 Indemnification

 

(a)

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Fund shall, subject to Section 3.8(b) hereof, indemnify each Director and Officer (including for this purpose his or her respective executors, heirs, assigns, successors or other legal representatives), against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise, or as fines or penalties, and reasonable counsel fees, incurred in connection with the defense or disposition of any action, suit, investigation or other proceeding, whether civil or criminal, before any

 

Grosvenor Registered Multi-Strategy Fund (TI 2), LLC    Page 10 of 24
Limited Liability Company Agreement   


  judicial, arbitral, administrative or legislative body, in which such indemnitee may be or may have been involved as a party or otherwise, or with which such indemnitee may be or may have been threatened, while in office or thereafter, by reason of being or having been a Director or Officer of the Fund or the past or present performance of services to the Fund by such indemnitee, except to the extent such loss, claim, damage, liability, cost or expense shall have been finally determined in a decision on the merits in any such action, suit, investigation or other proceeding to have been incurred or suffered by such indemnitee by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such indemnitee’s office. The rights of indemnification provided under this Section 3.8 shall not be construed so as to provide for indemnification of a Director or Officer for any liability (including liability under federal securities laws which, under certain circumstances, impose liability even on Persons that act in good faith) to the extent (but only to the extent) that such indemnification would be in violation of applicable law, but shall be construed so as to effectuate the applicable provisions of this Section 3.8 to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

(b) Expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, so incurred by any such indemnitee (but excluding amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise, or as fines or penalties), may be paid from time to time by the Fund in advance of the final disposition of any such action, suit, investigation or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such indemnitee to repay to the Fund amounts so paid if it shall ultimately be determined that indemnification of such expenses is not authorized under Section 3.8(a) hereof; provided, however, that (i) such indemnitee shall provide security for such undertaking, (ii) the Fund shall be insured by or on behalf of such indemnitee against losses arising by reason of such indemnitee’s failure to fulfill such undertaking, or (iii) a majority of the Directors (excluding any Director who is either seeking advancement of expenses hereunder or is or has been a party to any other action, suit, investigation or proceeding involving claims similar to those involved in the action, suit, investigation or proceeding giving rise to a claim for advancement of expenses hereunder) or independent legal counsel in a written opinion shall determine based on a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry) that there is reason to believe such indemnitee ultimately will be entitled to indemnification.

 

(c) As to the disposition of any action, suit, investigation or proceeding (whether by a compromise payment, pursuant to a consent decree or otherwise) without an adjudication or a decision on the merits by a court, or by any other body before which the proceeding shall have been brought, that an indemnitee is liable to the Fund or Members by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such indemnitee’s office, indemnification shall be provided pursuant to Section 3.8(a) hereof if (i) approved as in the best interests of the Fund by a majority of the Directors (excluding any Director who is either seeking indemnification hereunder or is or has been a party to any other action, suit, investigation or proceeding involving claims similar to those involved in the action, suit, investigation or proceeding giving rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder) upon a determination based upon a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry) that such indemnitee acted in good faith and in the reasonable belief that such actions were in the best interests of the Fund and that such indemnitee is not liable to the Fund or its Members by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such indemnitee’s office, or (ii) the Board of Directors secures a written opinion of independent legal counsel based upon a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry) to the effect that such indemnification would not protect such indemnitee against any liability to the Fund or its Members to which such indemnitee would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such indemnitee’s office.

 

(d)

Any indemnification or advancement of expenses made pursuant to this Section 3.8 shall not prevent the recovery from any indemnitee of any such amount if such indemnitee subsequently shall be determined in a decision on the merits in any action, suit, investigation or proceeding involving the liability or expense that gave rise to such indemnification or advancement of expenses to be liable to the Fund or its Members by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such indemnitee’s office. In (i) any suit brought by a Director (or other Person entitled to indemnification hereunder) to enforce a right to

 

Grosvenor Registered Multi-Strategy Fund (TI 2), LLC    Page 11 of 24
Limited Liability Company Agreement   


  indemnification under this Section 3.8 it shall be a defense that, and (ii) any suit in the name of the Fund to recover any indemnification or advancement of expenses made pursuant to this Section 3.8 the Fund shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a final adjudication that, the Director or other Person claiming a right to indemnification under this Section 3.8 has not met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Section 3.8. In any such suit brought to enforce a right to indemnification or to recover any indemnification or advancement of expenses made pursuant to this Section 3.8, the burden of proving that the Director or other Person claiming a right to indemnification is not entitled to be indemnified, or to any indemnification or advancement of expenses, under this Section 3.8 shall be on the Fund (or any Member acting derivatively or otherwise on behalf of the Fund or its Members).

 

(e) An indemnitee may not satisfy any right of indemnification or advancement of expenses granted in this Section 3.8 or to which such indemnitee may otherwise be entitled except out of the assets of the Fund, and no Member shall be personally liable with respect to any such claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses.

 

(f) The rights of indemnification provided hereunder shall not be exclusive of or affect any other rights to which any Person may be entitled by contract or otherwise under law. Nothing contained in this Section 3.8 shall affect the power of the Fund to purchase and maintain liability insurance on behalf of any Director or other Person.

SECTION 3.9 Fees, Expenses and Reimbursement

 

(a) So long as the Management Services Provider provides Management Services to the Fund, it shall be entitled to receive fees for such services as may be agreed to by the Management Services Provider and the Fund pursuant to the Management Agreement.

 

(b) The Board of Directors may cause the Fund to compensate each Director who is not an officer or employee of the Management Services Provider (or of any Affiliate of the Management Services Provider) for his or her services as such. In addition, the Directors shall be reimbursed by the Fund for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in performing their duties under this Agreement.

 

(c) The Fund shall bear all of its own operating expenses other than those specifically required to be borne by the Management Services Provider or another party pursuant to the Management Agreement or another agreement with the Fund. The Management Services Provider shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Fund for any expenses that it pays on behalf of the Fund.

 

(d) Subject to procuring any required regulatory approvals, from time to time the Fund may, alone or in conjunction with other accounts for which the Management Services Provider, or any Affiliate of the Management Services Provider, acts as general partner or investment adviser, purchase insurance in such amounts, from such insurers and on such terms as the Board of Directors shall determine.

ARTICLE 4—TERMINATION OF STATUS OF DIRECTORS, TRANSFERS AND REPURCHASES

SECTION 4.1 Termination of Status of a Director

The status of a Director shall terminate if the Director (i) shall die; (ii) shall be adjudicated incompetent; (iii) shall voluntarily withdraw as a Director (upon prior written notice to the other Directors); (iv) shall be removed; (v) shall be certified by a physician to be mentally or physically unable to perform his or her duties hereunder; (vi) shall be declared bankrupt by a court with appropriate jurisdiction, file a petition commencing a voluntary case under any bankruptcy law or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (vii) shall have a receiver appointed to administer the property or affairs of such Director; or (viii) shall otherwise cease to be a Director of the Fund under the Delaware Act.

SECTION 4.2 Removal of the Directors

Any Director may be removed either by (a) the vote or written consent of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Directors not subject to the removal vote or (b) the vote or written consent of Members holding not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by all Members.

SECTION 4.3 Transfer of Shares of Members

 

(a) Shares of a Member may be transferred only by operation of law pursuant to the death, divorce, bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution of such Member or with the written consent of the Board of Directors (which may be withheld in its sole discretion). The Board of Directors may consent to other pledges, Transfers, or assignments under such other circumstances and conditions as it, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems appropriate. In no event, however, will any Transferee or assignee be admitted as a Member without the consent of the Board of Directors, which may be withheld in its sole and absolute discretion. Any pledge, Transfer, or assignment not made in accordance with this Section 4.3 shall be void.

 

(b) The Board of Directors may not consent to a Transfer of Shares of a Member unless: (i) the Person to whom such Shares are transferred is a Person whom the Fund believes is an Eligible Investor, as such term is defined in the Fund’s Prospectus and investor application; and (ii) all of the Shares of the Member are transferred to a single transferee or, after the Transfer of a portion of a Member’s Shares, the aggregate Net Asset Value of the Shares of each of the transferee and transferor is not less than $50,000 unless otherwise directed by the Board of Directors. Any transferee that acquires Shares by operation of law as the result of the death, divorce, bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution of a Member or otherwise, and any transferee receiving the Board of Director’s consent, shall be entitled to the distributions allocable to the Shares so acquired, to Transfer such Shares in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and to tender the Shares for repurchase by the Fund. Each Member effecting a Transfer and its transferee agree to pay all expenses, including attorneys’ and accountants’ fees, incurred by the Fund in connection with such Transfer.

 

(c) Each Member shall indemnify and hold harmless the Fund, the Directors, the Management Services Provider, each other Member and any Affiliate of the foregoing against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including legal or other expenses incurred in investigating or defending against any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses or any judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement), joint or several, to which such Persons may become subject by reason of or arising from (i) any Transfer made by such Member in violation of this Section 4.3 and (ii) any misrepresentation by such Member in connection with any such Transfer.

SECTION 4.4 Repurchase of Shares

 

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member or other Person holding Shares shall have the right to withdraw or tender to the Fund for repurchase of those Shares. The Board of Directors from time to time, in its complete and exclusive discretion and on such terms and conditions as it may determine, may cause the Fund to repurchase Shares pursuant to written tenders. In determining whether to cause the Fund to repurchase Shares pursuant to written tenders, the Board of Directors shall consider the recommendation of the Management Services Provider, and shall also consider the following factors, among others:

 

  (i) whether any Members have requested to tender Shares to the Fund;

 

  (ii) the liquidity of the Fund’s assets;

 

  (iii) the investment plans and working capital requirements of the Fund;

 

  (iv) the relative economies of scale with respect to the size of the Fund;

 

  (v) the history of the Fund in repurchasing Shares thereof; and

 

  (vi) the economic condition of the securities markets.

 

Grosvenor Registered Multi-Strategy Fund (TI 2), LLC    Page 13 of 24
Limited Liability Company Agreement   


The Board of Directors shall cause the Fund to repurchase Shares pursuant to written tenders only on terms fair to the Fund and to all Members or one or more classes of Members (including Persons holding Shares acquired from Members), as applicable, and otherwise in a manner consistent with Sections 18-607 and 18-804 of the Delaware Act, to the extent applicable.

 

(b) A Member who tenders for repurchase only a portion of such Member’s Shares shall be required to continue to own Shares having a Net Asset Value not less than $50,000, or such lesser amount as may be established by the Board of Directors.

 

(c) The Management Services Provider may tender its Shares as a Member under Section 4.4(a) hereof.

 

(d) The Board of Directors may cause the Fund to repurchase Shares of a Member or any Person acquiring Shares from or through a Member in the event that the Board of Directors determines or has reason to believe that:

 

  (i) such Shares have been transferred in violation of Section 4.3 hereof, or such Shares have vested in any Person by operation of law as the result of the death, divorce, dissolution, bankruptcy or adjudication of incompetence of a Member;

 

  (ii) ownership of such Shares by a Member or other Person will cause the Fund to be in violation of, or require registration of any Shares under, or subject the Fund to additional registration or regulation under, the securities laws of the United States or any other relevant jurisdiction;

 

  (iii) continued ownership of such Shares may be harmful or injurious to the business or reputation of the Fund, the Directors, the Management Services Provider or the Subadviser, or may subject the Fund or any of the Members to an undue risk of adverse tax or other fiscal consequences;

 

  (iv) any of the representations and warranties made by a Member in connection with the acquisition of Shares was not true when made or has ceased to be true;

 

  (v) it would be in the best interests of the Fund, as determined by the Board of Directors in its absolute discretion, for the Fund to repurchase such Shares; or

 

  (vi) the Net Asset Value of a Member’s Shares is less than an amount that the Board of Directors determines to be a minimum investment in the Fund, or more than an amount that the Board determines to be a maximum investment in the Fund; or

 

  (vii) such repurchase is necessary to correct an administrative error made by the Fund or its agent in connection with the sale or purchase of Shares.

 

(e)

Repurchases of Shares by the Fund shall be payable in such time and such manner as the Board of Directors in its discretion shall determine. Payment of the purchase price for Shares may consist of: (i) cash or a promissory note, which need not bear interest, in an amount equal to such percentage, as may be determined by the Board of Directors, of the estimated unaudited Net Asset Value of the Shares repurchased by the Fund determined as of the valuation date for such repurchase (the “Initial Payment”); and, if determined to be appropriate by the Board of Directors or if the Initial Payment is less than 100% of the estimated unaudited Net Asset Value of the repurchased Shares, (ii) a contingent payment in cash or a promissory note, which need not bear interest, equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the Net Asset Value of the Shares repurchased by the Fund as of the valuation date for such repurchase, as subsequently determined (which determination may but need not be based on the audited financial statements of the Fund for the Fiscal Year in which such repurchase was effective), over (y) the Initial Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Fund, in the discretion of the Board of Directors, may pay all or any portion of the repurchase price in Securities (or any combination of Securities and cash) of equivalent value. All such repurchases shall be subject to any

 

Grosvenor Registered Multi-Strategy Fund (TI 2), LLC    Page 14 of 24
Limited Liability Company Agreement   


  and all conditions as the Board of Directors may impose and shall be effective as of a date set by the Board of Directors. The amount due to any Member whose Shares are repurchased shall be equal to the Net Asset Value of such Shares as applicable as of the valuation date for such repurchase.

 

(f) In the event that the Fund does not at least once during any 24-month period repurchase any of the Shares tendered in accordance with the procedures described above, the Board of Directors will call a meeting of members for the purpose of determining whether the Fund should be dissolved, as contemplated by Section 6.1(3) hereof.

ARTICLE 5—SHARES

SECTION 5.1 Shares

 

(a) The interest of the Members hereunder shall be divided into an unlimited number of Shares. Minimum initial and additional investment amounts may be established by the Board, in its sole and absolute discretion. Members may make additional investments in the Fund effective as of such times as the Board, in its sole and absolute discretion, may permit, subject to Section 2.7 hereof, but no Member shall be obligated to make any additional investments in the Fund. Initial and any additional investments in the Fund shall be payable in cash payable in readily available funds at the date of the proposed acceptance of the investment, or in-kind or in such manner and at such times as may be determined by the Board.

 

(b) All Shares issued in accordance with the terms hereof, including, without limitation, Shares issued in connection with a dividend in Shares or a split of Shares, shall be fully paid and nonassessable when the consideration determined by the Board of Directors (if any) therefor shall have been received by the Fund.

 

(c) The ownership of Shares shall be recorded on the books of the Fund or a transfer or similar agent. No certificates certifying the ownership of Shares shall be issued except as the Board of Directors may otherwise determine from time to time. The Board of Directors may make such rules as they consider appropriate for the issuance of Share certificates, the transfer of Shares and similar matters. The record books of the Fund as kept by the Fund or any transfer or similar agent, as the case may be, shall be conclusive as to who are the Members and as to the number of Shares held from time to time by each Member. The Board of Directors may at any time discontinue the issuance of Share certificates and may, by written notice to each Member, require the surrender of Share certificates to the Fund for cancellation. Such surrender and cancellation shall not affect the ownership of Shares in the Fund.

 

(d) All consideration received by the Company for the issue or sale of Shares, together with all assets in which such consideration is invested or reinvested, all income, earnings, profits, proceeds thereof, including any proceeds derived from the sale, exchange or liquidation of such assets, and any funds or payments derived from any reinvestment of such proceeds in whatever form the same may be, shall irrevocably belong to the Company generally and not to the account of any particular Member or holder of Shares, subject only to the rights of creditors, and shall be so recorded upon the books of account of the Company. The treatment of these items under this Section 5.1(d) shall replace and be in lieu of the treatment of the same under the relevant provisions of Article 5 of the Prior Limited Liability Company Agreement, replacement treatment to be effective as of the effective date of this Agreement and at all times thereafter.

 

(e) The liabilities, expenses, costs, charges and reserves attributable to the Company shall be charged and allocated to the assets belonging to the Company generally and not to the account of any particular Member or holder of Shares and shall be so recorded upon the books of account of the Company. The treatment of these items under this Section 5.1(e) shall replace and be in lieu of the treatment of the same under the relevant provisions of Article 5 of the Prior Limited Liability Company Agreement, such replacement treatment to be effective as of the effective date of this Agreement and at all times thereafter.

 

Grosvenor Registered Multi-Strategy Fund (TI 2), LLC    Page 15 of 24
Limited Liability Company Agreement   


(f) Dividends and distributions on Shares may be paid to the Members or holders of Shares in accordance with Section 7.4. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Board of Directors shall not be required to make a distribution to the Members on account of their Shares in the Company if such distribution would violate Section 18-607 of the Delaware Act or any other applicable law.

 

(g) Shares shall be transferable only in accordance with Section 4.3 hereof.

 

(h) Except as provided herein, each Share of a class of Shares shall represent an equal proportionate interest in the assets of the Company (subject to the liabilities of the Company) with respect to such class, and each Share of a class shall be equal with respect to Net Asset Value per Share as against each other Share of such class. The rights attaching to all Shares of a class shall be identical as to right of repurchase by the Company, dividends and other distributions (whether or not on liquidation), and voting rights (the vote attaching to each Share or fraction thereof being equal to the dollar value of the same as of the record date for any such vote, if such record date is the last day of a Fiscal Period, or if such record date is not the last day of a Fiscal Period, the last day of a Fiscal Period most recently preceding such record date). The Board of Directors may from time to time divide or combine the Shares into a greater or lesser number of Shares provided that such division or combination does not change the proportionate beneficial interest in the assets of the Company of any Member or other holder of Shares or in any way affect the rights of Shares.

SECTION 5.2 Rights of Members

 

(a) The Shares shall be personal property giving only the rights in this Agreement specifically set forth or as otherwise required by the Delaware Act. The ownership of Fund assets of every description and the right to conduct any business herein before described are vested exclusively in the Board of Directors, and the Members shall have no interest therein other than the interest conferred by their Shares, and they shall have no right to call for any partition or division of any property, profits, rights or interests of the Fund nor can they be called upon to share or assume any losses of the Fund. The Shares shall not entitle the holder to preference, preemptive, appraisal, conversion or exchange rights (except as specified by the Board of Directors when creating the Shares, as in preferred shares).

 

(b) No Member shall be entitled to interest on any investment in the Fund, nor shall any Member be entitled to the return of any capital of the Fund except (i) upon the repurchase by the Fund of a part or all of such member’s Shares pursuant to section 4.4 hereof, or (ii) upon the liquidation of the Fund’s assets pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof. No Member shall be liable for the return of any such amounts.

SECTION 5.3 Issuance of Shares

The Board of Directors, in their discretion, may from time to time without authorization or vote of the Members issue Shares and additional classes of Shares established pursuant to Section 3.1(e), in addition to the then issued and outstanding Shares and Shares held in the treasury, to such party or parties and for such amount and type of consideration, including cash or property, at such time or times, and on such terms as the Board of Directors may determine, and may in such manner acquire other assets (including the acquisition of assets subject to, and in connection with the assumption of, liabilities) and businesses. The Board of Directors may from time to time divide or combine the Shares into a greater or lesser number without thereby changing the proportionate beneficial interest in such Shares. Issuances and repurchases of Shares may be made in whole Shares and/or fractions of a Share or multiples thereof as the Board of Directors may determine.

SECTION 5.4 Register of Shares

A register shall be kept at the offices of the Fund or any transfer agent duly appointed by the Board of Directors under the direction of the Board of Directors which shall contain the names and addresses of the Members and the number of Shares held by them respectively and a record of all transfers thereof. Separate registers shall be established and maintained for each class of Shares. Each such register shall be conclusive

 

Grosvenor Registered Multi-Strategy Fund (TI 2), LLC    Page 16 of 24
Limited Liability Company Agreement   


as to who are the holders of the Shares of the applicable class of Shares and who shall be entitled to receive dividends or distributions or otherwise to exercise or enjoy the rights of Members. No Member shall be entitled to receive payment of any dividend or distribution, nor to have notice given to such Member as herein provided, until such Member has given its address to a transfer agent or such other officer or agent of the Board of Directors as shall keep the register for entry thereon. The Board of Directors, in their discretion, may authorize the issuance of share certificates and promulgate appropriate fees therefor and rules and regulations as to their use.

SECTION 5.5 Withholding

 

(a) The Board of Directors may withhold and pay over to the Internal Revenue Service (or any other relevant taxing authority) taxes from any distribution to any Member to the extent required by the Code or any other applicable law.

 

(b) The Board of Directors shall not be obligated to apply for or obtain a reduction of or exemption from withholding tax on behalf of any Member that may be eligible for such reduction or exemption. To the extent that a Member claims to be entitled to a reduced rate of, or exemption from, a withholding tax pursuant to an applicable income tax treaty, or otherwise, the Member shall furnish the Board of Directors with such information and forms as such Member may be required to complete where necessary to comply with any and all laws and regulations governing the obligations of withholding tax agents. Each Member represents and warrants that any such information and forms furnished by such Member shall be true and accurate and agrees to indemnify the Fund and each of the Members from any and all damages, costs and expenses resulting from the filing of inaccurate or incomplete information or forms relating to such withholding taxes.

SECTION 5.6 Reserves

 

(a) All provisions under Section 5.6 of the Prior Limited Liability Company Agreement (also under the heading “Reserves”) shall be understood as terminated as of the date of the Conversion, with no further rights on the part of any Member to specific credits with respect to reductions in previously established reserves for the liabilities of the Company and no further rights on the part of the Company to collections from Members with respect to increases in previously established reserves for Company liabilities.

 

(b) Also as of the date of the Conversion all matters relating to Company reserves of the nature contemplated by the preceding clause (a) shall be governed by Sections 5.1(e), 6.2 and 7.4(c) hereof.

ARTICLE 6—DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION

SECTION 6.1 Dissolution

The Fund shall be dissolved:

 

(a) upon the affirmative vote to dissolve the Fund by the Board of Directors;

 

(b) upon the failure of Members to elect a successor Director at a meeting called by the Management Services Provider in accordance with Section 2.6(c) hereof when no Director remains to continue the business of the Fund;

 

(c) upon the affirmative vote of a “majority of the outstanding voting securities” of the Fund, as such term is defined in the 1940 Act, at a meeting of Members called by the Board of Directors for the purpose of determining whether the Fund should be dissolved in the event that the Fund does not at least once during any 24-month period repurchase any of the Interests tendered in accordance with the procedures determined by the Board of Directors from time to time;

 

(d) at any time there are no Members in accordance with and subject to Section 18-801(a)(4) of the Delaware Act;

The Fund shall cause financial statements contained in each annual report furnished hereunder to be accompanied by a certificate of independent public accountants based upon an audit performed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

In determining the value of the assets of the Fund, no value shall be placed on the goodwill or name of the Fund, or the office records, files, statistical data or any similar intangible assets of the Fund not normally reflected in the Fund’s accounting records, but there shall be taken into consideration any items of income earned but not received, expenses incurred but not yet paid, liabilities, fixed or contingent, and any other prepaid expenses to the extent not otherwise reflected in the books of account, and the value of options or commitments to purchase or sell Securities or commodities pursuant to agreements entered into prior to such valuation date.

 

(b) The value of Securities and other assets of the Fund and the net worth of the Fund as a whole determined pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall be conclusive and binding on all of the Members and all parties claiming through or under them.

SECTION 7.4 Distributions to Members

 

(a) Dividends and distributions on Shares may be paid to the Members, with such frequency as the Board of Directors may determine, which may be daily or otherwise pursuant to a standing resolution or resolutions adopted only once or with such frequency as the Board of Directors may determine, from such of the income, capital gains accrued or realized, and capital and surplus, after providing for actual and accrued liabilities of the Company. All dividends and distributions on Shares of a class shall be distributed pro rata to the Members or other holders of Shares of such class in proportion to the number of Shares of such class held by such persons at the date and time of record established for the payment of such dividends or distributions, except that in connection with any dividend or distribution program or procedure the Board of Directors may determine that no dividend or distribution shall be payable on Shares as to which the Member’s purchase order and/or payment have not been received by the time or times established by the Board of Directors under such program or procedure. Dividends and distributions on Shares may be made in cash or Shares or a combination thereof as determined by the Board of Directors or pursuant to any program that the Board of Directors may have in effect at the time for the election by each Member or other holder of Shares of the mode of the making of such dividend or distribution to that person. Any dividend or distribution paid in Shares will be paid at the Net Asset Value thereof. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Directors may at any time declare and distribute a dividend of stock or other property pro rata among the Members or other holders of Shares at the date and time of record established for the payment of such dividends or distributions.

 

(b) The Fund may always retain such amount as the Board of Directors may deem necessary to pay the debts or expenses of the Fund or to meet obligations of the Fund, or as the Board of Directors otherwise may deem desirable to use in the conduct of the Fund’s affairs or to retain for future requirements or extensions of the business.

(c) Inasmuch as the computation of net income and gains for Federal income tax purposes may vary from the computation thereof on the books, the above provisions shall be interpreted to give the Board of Directors the power in their discretion to distribute for any fiscal year as ordinary dividends and as capital gains distributions, respectively, additional amounts sufficient to enable the Fund to avoid or reduce liability for taxes.

SECTION 7.5 Power to Modify Foregoing Procedures

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Article 7, the Board of Directors may prescribe, in their absolute discretion except as may be required by the 1940 Act, such other bases and times for determining the per share asset value of the Fund’s Shares or net income, or the declaration and payment of dividends and distributions as they may deem necessary or desirable for any reason, including to enable the Fund to comply with any provision of the 1940 Act, or other applicable laws or regulations, or any order of exemption issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, all as in effect now or hereafter amended or modified.

SECTION 7.6 Dividend Reinvestment Plan

The Board of Directors may establish a dividend reinvestment plan for any class of Shares providing for the automatic reinvestment of cash dividends on the Shares of such class in additional shares of such class or of another class of Shares. Unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, all dividends on Shares of any class for which such a dividend reinvestment plan has been established shall automatically be reinvested in the Fund pursuant to such plan unless the holder of such Shares shall affirmatively elect, in such manner as specified by the Fund, not to participate in the dividend reinvestment plan.
