conditions of this Agreement. Access to the Site is being provided to User in reliance on this confirmation and
the continuance of this status and User agrees to notify Crystal and/or the Funds (collectively the “Sitehost”)
and cease using the Site should that status change. The Sitehost makes no representation that the Site is
appropriate for the User. The User further agrees that the Site may be unavailable from time to time.
BEFORE ACCESSING THIS SITE, PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY AS IT GOVERNS USE OF THIS SITE AND ANY MATERIAL
AVAILABLE THROUGH THIS SITE.

2. Confidentiality.
(a) User shall: (i) hold and maintain all Confidential Information received from the Sitehost in strict
confidence; (ii) restrict disclosure of Confidential Information only to those individuals who (1) are User's
representatives that need to know the Confidential Information in order reasonably to carry out the terms of
this Agreement (or any subsequent agreement between the Funds and User) , (2) have been informed of the
confidential nature of such Confidential Information, and (3) have agreed to be bound by the restrictions of
this Agreement (or any subsequent agreement between the Funds and User) governing disclosure in any manner of
Confidential Information, including, without limitation, restricting Confidential Information from disclosure to
any other person or entity, absent the express written approval of Sitehost, or are bound to an agreement
requiring that the Confidential Information be afforded at least the same level of confidentiality as this
Agreement; (iii) not duplicate, reproduce, distribute, store in any electronic information retrieval system, or
disseminate in any other manner, the Confidential Information; (iv) employ procedures to prevent the
unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information that are commensurate with industry standards, but in no
event less rigorous than procedures reasonably required to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential
Information; (v) use Confidential Information disclosed by the Sitehost only for the express purposes of this
Agreement (or any subsequent agreement between the Funds and User), and not for any other purpose or otherwise
for the benefit of User, its representatives, or any other person; (vi) not measure, reverse engineer,
decompile, disassemble, duplicate, or otherwise analyze the physical or digital structure, construction or
operation of the Confidential Information; (vii) not share information and/or the content of any reports to the

copies of such Confidential Information as may be in possession of User or User's custody or control at the
termination of the business relationship between the Funds and User contemplated herein.
(b) Should a judicial or regulatory authority require User to disclose any of the Site’s Confidential
Information, User shall provide written notice to Sitehost immediately upon receiving any notice or request
thereof, such that Sitehost shall be permitted the opportunity to oppose any such disclosure.
(c) In the event of any breach hereof (including without limitation the unauthorized disclosure or use of
Confidential Information by User or User's representatives), User shall indemnify the Sitehost for any and all
direct, consequential or punitive damages incurred as a result of such breach (including, without limitation,
any actual expenses, attorney's fees, and court costs) and shall reasonably compensate the Sitehost for damages
resulting from such breach. User shall also release, defend, indemnify and hold the Sitehost harmless from any
and all claims, demands, and causes of action or liability arising from the unauthorized disclosure or use of
the Confidential Information. Furthermore, in the event of any breach, the Sitehost shall have the right to
specifically enforce the provisions of this Agreement or obtain an injunction, temporary restraining order, or
other equitable relief to prevent a continuing or threatened breach, without the necessity of posting a bond in
support thereof, in addition to seeking money damages; it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or
threatened breach will cause immediate and irreparable injury to the Sitehost, and that monetary damages alone
will not provide an adequate remedy.
3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants.
User hereby makes the following representations, warranties and covenants on behalf of itself and its
Representatives, as of the date hereof and continuing thereafter:
(a) User has the authority to enter into this Agreement. The terms of this Agreement do not conflict with the
terms of any other agreement to which User is a party. User is in good standing in the jurisdiction in which it
is organized. User is not, nor will User become, a person with whom U.S. persons or entities are restricted from
doing business under regulations of OFAC or other governmental action and User will not engage in any dealings
or transactions or be otherwise associated with such persons or entities.
(b) User shall only make Confidential Information available to persons who satisfy the requirements of an
""accredited investor"" under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 501 of Regulation D adopted
thereunder and/or a ""qualified purchaser"" as that term is defined under Section 2(a)(51) of the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended. User specifically acknowledges that User and User's representatives may be held
liable for damages including any civil penalties, fines or judgments resulting from providing access to
Confidential Information to persons that are not accredited investors and/or qualified purchasers or are not
otherwise entitled to receive the Confidential Information.
(c) All Confidential Information shall only be used for purposes of evaluating the investment opportunities of
persons permitted hereunder. User may not modify, copy, distribute, broadcast, transmit, reproduce, publish,
license, transfer, sell, mirror, frame, or otherwise use any Confidential Information for any other purpose. No
Confidential Information shall be used in a manner that is not permitted by this Agreement or by applicable law
or regulations.
(d) The information contained in any questionnaires, forms, reports or other documents delivered by User to
Sitehost is true, complete and correct as of the date thereof.
(e) FOR USERS IN THE UK ONLY: this document is only being made available to you by Crystal and the Funds on the
basis that you are a UK Financial Conduct Authority authorised firm in accordance with article 19 of the
Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005. This document must not be forwarded to
or sent to any person other than representatives of FCA authorised firms. Please note that only investors who
are Professional Clients for the purposes of the FCA’s rules will be able to invest into the Funds which will be
made available to the selected FCA authorised firms who we interact with. Potential investors who are Retail
Clients for the purposes of the FCA’s rules will not be able to invest.
4. Exclusive Ownership of Confidential Information.
User and its representatives acknowledge Sitehost’s sole and exclusive right, title, and interest in and to any
and all copyrights, patents, trademarks, service marks, trade secrets, and other intellectual property rights,
registrations, grants, awards and licenses, whether presently issued, applied for, or issuable or capable of
being issued in the future by any governmental entity with respect to any Proprietary Technology. User and its
representatives shall (a) not contest, take any action which would result in the denial, impairment,
infringement, revocation, or rescission of, or file any application or other document seeking any right,
interest, registration, grant, award or license in or to, any invention or derivative thereof without the prior
written consent of Sitehost after Sitehost shall have received written notification of the specific action
proposed to be taken by the User (which consent by Sitehost may be granted, delayed or withheld in the sole
discretion of Sitehost), and (b), if the User shall directly or indirectly obtain any such intellectual property
rights, promptly notify Sitehost of such occurrence and promptly transfer any such rights to Sitehost at no cost
upon receipt of a written notification from Sitehost by executing and delivering such transfer instruments (in
form and substance satisfactory to Sitehost) as Sitehost shall request. User and its representatives acquire
absolutely no rights or licenses in the Confidential Information. Except as otherwise expressly permitted
herein, User may not modify, copy, distribute, broadcast, transmit, reproduce, publish, license, transfer, sell,
mirror, frame, or otherwise use any Confidential Information.
5. Disclaimer; Limitation of Liability.
(a) User and its representatives acknowledge that (i) Sitehost derives the Confidential Information from
numerous sources, including, but not limited to, Crystal's own research and diligence, Sitehost's underlying
investment vehicles, managers of underlying investment vehicles, third party due diligence providers and other
public or non-public sources, (ii) the Confidential Information is provided ""as is"" and ""as available,"" and
Sitehost makes no representation or warranty of any kind, express or implied, as to the accuracy, timeliness, or
completeness of the Confidential Information, including, but not limited to, satisfactory quality,
non-infringement, legality, accessibility, timeliness, suitability or merchantability, reliability, title or
fitness , (iii) the use of the Confidential Information is at User's sole risk, (iv) to the full extent
permissible by law, Sitehost expressly disclaims any liability or responsibility to User, User's representatives
or any third party for damages resulting from the use of the Confidential Information, or any errors or
omissions in, or decisions made in reliance on, any aspect of the Site, (v) User agrees to waive any and all
liability claims as it relates to use of Site information, for all purposes, and (vi) Sitehost may make
modifications or changes in the Confidential Information at any time, for any reason, without notification or
reference to the User.
(b) The Confidential Information is offered solely for informational purposes and does not constitute a
solicitation, an offer, or an invitation to make an offer to buy or sell any investments. Neither Crystal nor
the Funds nor any of its affiliates are a fiduciary or advisor with respect to any financial services or
products unless otherwise required by law. The Confidential Information does not constitute any form of
investment, legal, regulatory, tax, or compliance advice or any representation as to whether any security or
investment is suitable to User or will be profitable. Any such advice should be obtained from your Portfolio
Advisor and/or an appropriately qualified third party. None of the Confidential Information disclosed through
the Site has been recommended by any state, federal, or foreign commission or regulatory authority. No
information on the Site shall be construed as a recommendation, endorsement, or sponsorship by Sitehost.
(c) User acknowledges that the actual performance, liquidity or other terms and conditions of User's actual
investments or portfolios may differ substantially from the Confidential Information for various reasons,
including, but not limited to, the structure of the investments, specific conditions in actual performance, and
characteristics specific to the actual investment. Performance displayed on the Site is intended to be
representative rather than comprehensive. Pro forma results, i.e., Hypothetical Performance, are based on
simulated or hypothetical results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in actual
performance records, Hypothetical Performance results do not represent actual performance. Such results may be
under-or over-compensated for the impact of certain market factors, including, but not limited, to leverage,
lack of liquidity and the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is
likely to achieve actual performance similar to Hypothetical Performance.
Any statements in the Site reflecting the view of Sitehost with respect to future events are subject to certain
risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should
underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those statements.
The actual performance, liquidity or other terms and conditions of investments or portfolios may differ from the
Confidential Information (including information generated by the Proprietary Tools (as defined in this
Agreement)) for various reasons including, but not limited to: (i) the domicile of the investor, (ii) whether
the investment was made into an offshore or onshore investment vehicle, (iii) the actual timing of the
investment, (iv) the timing and impact of any redemptions, (v) whether the investment contains exposure to any
sidepocket or illiquid investments, (vi) the particular share class, series, unit, partnership or other interest
that constituted such investment, (vii) whether such performance figures include any Hypothetical Performance,
and (viii) and advisory, management, or other fees applicable to such investment (including the applicable high
watermark).
There may be differences between the investments made by the Funds and/or a portfolio, and each of the benchmark
indices referenced (together, the ""benchmark indices""). The benchmark indices are referenced for informational
purposes only and no suggestion is intended that any of the benchmark indices fully reflect the Funds and/or a
portfolio. The benchmark indices generally represent a particular strategy or sector, whereas the Funds and/or
portfolio may be comprised of many different strategies or sectors. Additionally, the Funds and/or portfolio may
invest in securities that have a greater degree of risk and volatility, as well as less liquidity, than those
securities contained in the benchmark indices. Moreover, the benchmark indices may not reflect the reinvestment
of income or dividends and are not, unless otherwise noted, subject to any of the fees or expenses that the
Funds and/or portfolio must pay. It should not be assumed that the Funds and/or portfolio will invest in any
specific securities that comprise the benchmark indices, nor should it be understood to mean that there is a
correlation between the Funds' and/or portfolio's returns and the benchmark indices' performance. The benchmark
indices may be affected by ""survivorship bias"" because they do not include performance data for issuers that
are removed therefrom because they no longer meet the relevant benchmark indices' criteria or do not include
performance from failed hedge funds that no longer exist, which may cause the results of the benchmark indices
to skew higher due to the fact that they are calculated using data for surviving hedge funds only. It is not
possible to invest directly in a benchmark index.
References to “fund exposure” or “exposure(s)” shall generally be considered a derivative instrument indexed to
a third-party private equity or hedge fund (the “Indexed Fund”) with the expectation of similar performance and
liquidity. However, there is no guarantee that the exposure will perform similarly to its Indexed Fund as shown.
It is possible that the actual performance of an exposure is substantially different than the performance of its
Indexed Fund. Each exposure may or may not invest substantially all of its assets in securities directly or
indirectly through one or more Indexed Funds. Information relating to any fund terms of an Indexed Fund contains
only summary information about the underlying hedge or private equity fund and is qualified in its entirety by,
and should be read in conjunction with, the more detailed information contained in the offering memorandums for
each Fund managed by CCP and other appropriate Fund documents. In all cases, interested parties should conduct
their own investigation and analysis of the Funds using the applicable offering memorandum.
Sitehost makes no representation or warranty about any Indexed Fund, or its suitability or appropriateness for
any particular segregated portfolio. Sitehost may make modifications to the list of Indexed Funds at any time,
for any reason.
(d) Under no circumstances shall Sitehost and/or Sitehost’s partners, employees, affiliates, authorized
licensees, agents, advisors, and representatives (“Sitehost’s Representatives”) be liable for any reason for any
losses or damages (whether direct or indirect) related to Confidential Information, including, but not limited
to, lost profits, business, income, contracts, anticipated savings, data, goodwill or wasted time, or any other
losses of any kind arising from the use of the Confidential Information by the User. Further, no direct or
indirect partner, member or shareholder of Crystal shall be personally liable for the performance of the
obligations of, or in respect of any claims against, Sitehost arising under this Agreement. No personal judgment
shall be sought or obtained against any of the foregoing in connection with this Agreement.
(e) Past performance is not indicative of future results. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
certain components of the Confidential Information are based on statistical models that solely provide a means
to analyze relationships that may have existed in the past and should not be interpreted as a prediction of
future performance.
(f) User acknowledges that Sitehost provides no assurances as to the availability of any investment, even if it
is contained in the Confidential Information.
6. Solicitation
Neither User nor any party acting on its behalf will offer any investments available on the Site by any form of
general solicitation or general advertising (or to any person with which it does not have a ""substantive and
pre-existing relationship"" (consistent with, and as set forth and described under, relevant SEC No-Action
Letters and Releases)), or engage in any solicitation or other activity in violation of any statute, law,
ordinance, rule, public administrative interpretation, regulation, order, writ, injunction, directive, judgment,
decree or other requirement of any governmental authority.
7. Password Policy; Right to Restrict or Terminate Access.
Use of the Confidential Information requires both sign-in information (""Sign-In Name"") and a password
(""Password"") for access to the Site. Each Sign-In Name and corresponding Password can be used only by the
individual intended to receive such information. User may not share its Sign-In Name or Password with any other
person. Accordingly, User shall keep its Password confidential at all times, and such Password shall be deemed
to be Confidential Information hereunder. User shall promptly notify Sitehost if it becomes aware of any loss or
theft of a Password or any unauthorized use of a Password. Sitehost reserves all rights in its sole discretion
to change, restrict, suspend or terminate access or use of the Site at any time without prior notice or
liability.
8. Use of Internet; Security of Site.
(a) Use of the Internet is solely at User's own risk and is subject to all applicable local, state, national,
and international laws and regulations. While Sitehost has endeavored to create a secure and reliable Site,
please be advised that the confidentiality of any communication or material transmitted to/from the Site over
the Internet cannot be guaranteed. Accordingly, Sitehost is not responsible for the security of any information
transmitted via the Internet. User assumes sole and complete risk for using the Site.
(b) Actual or attempted unauthorized use of the Site may result in criminal and/or civil prosecution. Sitehost
reserves the right to view, monitor, and record activity on the Site and to use such information for internal
purposes without notice or permission. Please see Sitehost's Privacy Policy for further information.
9. Electronic Delivery.
(a) The Site is the primary means of communication and document delivery with Users. The Funds and/or Crystal
may be required to make available annual audited financial statements, unaudited interim account statements, and
may need to provide other notices and information to the User. Such notices and information include, but may not
be limited to certain reports or other statements, offering document supplements or updates, revised Fund
governing documents, and all other communications and letters relating to the Funds and the investor's
investment in the Funds, which may include, NAV and capital account balance information, capital contributions
and withdrawal activity, annual and other updates of the Funds’ consumer privacy policies and procedures (if
any) and all communications relating to Crystal (including any ADV Part 2, privacy policy and other
communications required (if at all) under the Advisers Act or otherwise) (collectively, ""Fund
-Information"").
(b) In order to promote cost savings and to improve the timeliness of delivery, Sitehost delivers information
via the Site, upon request. The Internet is not secure and may contain computer viruses or other defects, may
not be accurately replicated on other systems, or may be intercepted, accessed, deleted or interfered with by
unauthorized or unintended third parties without Sitehost’s or the User's knowledge. Sitehost makes no
warranties in relation to these matters. It is the User's responsibility to timely read any and all information
posted to the Site. The User will have to check the Site regularly to avoid missing time-sensitive information
as such electronic delivery on or through the Site is sufficient to constitute actual delivery thereof. As such,
the posting of information constitutes legal notice of information contained therein and User accepts the same.
The User will be responsible to notify Sitehost if it is unable to access the Site. Users may contact Sitehost
for technical assistance regarding the Site. It is the User's responsibility to notify Sitehost should the User
not want to use the Site as its primary means of communication and document delivery.
10. Electronic Signature Process.
(a) Subscription Agreements, Additional Subscription Requests, Redemption Requests, and other documents that may
require the User's signature are available through the Site. The Funds and/or Crystal typically expect these
documents to be signed electronically via its secure electronic signature process. As part of this process,
Crystal and/or the Funds will use the email address of a User or User’s representative for identity
authentication purposes. The User agrees that it will be solely responsible for notifying the Funds and/or
Crystal in writing of any change in its email address, and that the Funds and/or Crystal may not seek to verify
or confirm the User's email address as provided. Upon request, the Funds and/or Crystal will make paper
documents available for signature.
(b) If the User has any doubts about the authenticity of an email purportedly sent by the Fund or Crystal, the
User is required to contact the purported sender immediately. User email messages are not secure and may contain
computer viruses or other defects, may not be accurately replicated on other systems, or may be intercepted,
accessed, deleted or interfered with by unauthorized or unintended third parties without the knowledge of the
Funds or Crystal or the User.
11. Miscellaneous Provisions.
(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida,
without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Any action to enforce this Agreement will be brought in the
federal or state courts presiding in Miami, Florida, U.S., and all parties to this Agreement expressly agree to
be subject to the jurisdiction of such courts. In connection with its use of the Site, the User shall comply
with all applicable law and shall not take any action that would place Sitehost in violation of any applicable
law.
(b) If any part of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law
including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and the liability limitations set forth above, then the
invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most clearly
matches the intent of the original provision and the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in effect.
(c) No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between Sitehost and User by way of
this Agreement or by virtue of User's use of the Confidential Information.
(d) This Agreement represents the entire agreement with respect to use of the Site, and it supersedes all prior
or contemporaneous communications and proposals, whether electronic, oral or written between Sitehost and User
with respect to use of the Site, except to the extent this Agreement directly and expressly contradicts the Fund
Documents.
(e) Sitehost reserves the right to modify the terms and conditions of this Agreement in its sole discretion from
time to time. Any rights not expressly granted herein are reserved.
(f) Failure to insist on strict performance of this Agreement will not operate as a waiver of any subsequent
default or failure of performance. No waiver by Sitehost of any right under this Agreement will be deemed to be
either a waiver of any other right or provision or a waiver of that same right or provision at any other time.
No waiver shall be effective unless in writing.
(g) Sitehost welcomes feedback and suggestions about how to improve the Site. Any ideas, suggestions,
information, know-how, material, or any other content (collectively, ""content"") received from User will be
deemed to include a royalty-free nonexclusive right and license for Sitehost to use said content.
(h) Sitehost may provide links, in its sole discretion, to other web sites for the convenience of its users in
locating related information and services. You are encouraged to exercise discretion while browsing through the
Site or any connected hyperlinks to external websites. Such sites have not necessarily been reviewed by Sitehost
and are maintained by third parties over which Sitehost exercises no control. Accordingly, Sitehost expressly
disclaims any responsibility for the content, the accuracy of the information, and/or quality of products or
services provided by or advertised on these third-party web sites. Sitehost is not responsible for the privacy
practices of such other web sites. Moreover, these links do not imply an endorsement with respect to any third
party or any web site or the products or services provided by any third party nor does Sitehost’s inclusion of
these links imply association with the owners or operators of such external sites, and the views expressed at
such external websites are not necessarily the views of Sitehost or its affiliates. Your hyper-linking to, or
use of, any such external site is at your own risk. Any concerns regarding any hyperlink should be directed to
the respective website owner or operator/webmaster.
12. Tracking Technologies.
The Site may use tracking technologies to enhance Sitehost’s service to its Users and to better develop the Site
and its content. Tracking technologies used on the Site may include, but are not limited to: Microsoft
Application Insights; Google Analytics; and Google Adwords.
13. User Acknowledgment.
User, by agreeing to use the Site, acknowledges the terms herein and agrees to be bound by the foregoing.
Sitehost, in its sole discretion, may at any time and for any or no reason suspend, limit, restrict, modify or
terminate User's access to the Site. Please print this agreement for your records.
