Any funds raised by the Buyers to finance the Purchase Price have been raised in compliance with all Laws.

6.8. Investment.

(a) Buyers are acquiring the CCP Master Fund Interests for their own accounts with the present intention of holding such securities for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution of such securities in violation of any Securities Laws. Buyers acknowledge that the CCP Master Fund Interests have not been registered under the Securities Act and that the CCP Master Fund Interests may not be sold, transferred, offered for sale, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of unless such transfer, sale, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition is pursuant to the terms of an effective registration statement under applicable Securities Laws or sold pursuant to an exemption from registration thereunder.

(b) Buyers have been furnished with all materials relating to the Business, finances and operations of the CCP Master Fund and all materials relating to the Feeder Fund Tender Offers that have been reasonably requested by the Buyers, including, without limitation, the SEC Documents. Buyers understand that investment in the CCP Master Fund Interests involves a high degree of risk. Buyers (i) are able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the CCP Master Fund Interests including a total loss, (ii) have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that they are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the proposed investment in the CCP Master Fund Interests and (iii) have had an opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Representatives of the CCP Master Fund concerning the financial condition and Business of the CCP Master Fund and other matters related to an investment in the CCP Master Fund Interests. Buyers have sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the acquisition of the CCP Master Fund Interests.

(c) Buyers have not conducted, and prior to giving effect to the Contemplated Transactions, will not conduct, operations that would require Buyers to rely on the exemption from registration set forth in Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act. Buyers are not and, after giving effect to the Contemplated Transactions, will not be required to register as an “investment company” or an entity “controlled” by an “investment company,” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act, because Buyers may rely on the exemption from registration set forth in Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act.

(d) Buyers have not taken, and have no plans to, take any action that would (i) effect or consummate any transaction or chain of transactions that would involve any “public offering” of the Buyers’ securities within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act; or (ii) effect or consummate any transaction or chain of transactions that could be deemed a general solicitation of the Buyers’ securities under Rule 506(c) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

6.9. No Regulatory Impediment. To Buyers’ knowledge, there is no fact relating to Buyers’ business, operations, financial condition or legal status that might reasonably be expected to impair in any material respect either Buyer’s ability to obtain all consents, orders, authorizations, and approvals from any Governmental Authority necessary for the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions within the time period contemplated by this Agreement.

6.10. No Operations; No Subsidiaries. The Buyers are newly formed entities with no significant business operations other than activities related to preparation for the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions. The Buyers have no subsidiaries and do not own any capital stock of, or any equity interest of any nature in, any other Person. The Buyers have not entered into, and are not bound by, any Contract under which a Buyer is or may become obligated to make any future investment in or capital contribution, loan or advance to any other Person. The Buyers have not, at any time, been a general partner (or similar role) of, or had otherwise been liable for any of the debts or other obligations of, any general partnership, limited partnership or other Person.

6.11. Control and Ownership. The Buyers are not now, and following consummation of the Contemplated Transactions will not be, controlled by any entity relying on the exemption from registration set forth in Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act, nor will consummation of the Contemplated Transactions result in the indirect ownership of Master Fund interests by an entity relying on the exemption from registration set forth in Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act that would exceed applicable limitations in the Investment Company Act.

Article VII

Each Party shall cooperate fully with the other Parties in promptly seeking to obtain all such authorizations, consents and approvals. The Parties shall not take any action that is reasonably likely to have the effect of unreasonably delaying, impairing or impeding the receipt of any required authorizations, consents or approvals. The Adviser shall use reasonable best efforts to cause each of the Sellers and the CCP Master Fund to comply with each of their respective obligations hereunder.

7.3. Further Assurances. On and after the Closing Date, and for no further consideration, the Parties will take all appropriate action and execute all documents, instruments or conveyances of any kind which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to consummate the Contemplated Transactions.

Each Party shall give prompt written notice to the other Parties of the occurrence or non-occurrence of any Event that is likely to result in the failure of a condition set forth in Article VIII to be satisfied; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 7.4 shall not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to a Party receiving such notice.

7.5. CCP Master Fund Assets; Fair Value. On or prior to October 29, 2021 the CCP Master Fund shall deliver to Buyers an investment schedule (“Investment Schedule”) setting forth, in reasonable detail, all cash and investment assets (including any Portfolio Funds transferred) (“CCP Assets”) held by the CCP Master Fund, as well as the Buyers’ indirect percentage ownership of such CCP Assets, in each case as of the most recent practicable date as if the Contemplated Transaction were consummated on such date. The CCP Master Fund shall own all right, title and interest in and to the CCP Assets, free and clear of all Encumbrances, except Permitted Encumbrances, as of the Closing Date. The Investment Schedule shall be unaudited and shall set forth the “fair value” of the CCP Assets as of the Valuation Date.
