A. Advisory Firm
ICAM is a Delaware limited liability company that commenced operation in December 1997, and is
owned and controlled by ICAMH. ICAMH is indirectly owned and controlled by Jason W. Reese and
Randall E. Wooster through ICGH.
ICAM GP I, LLC (“ICAM GP I” and together with ICAM, the “Advisers”) is a Delaware limited liability
company that was organized in June 2018, and is a wholly owned subsidiary of ICAM.
B. Specialization
While ICAM generally provides investment advice on a wide variety of U.S. and foreign investment
products, including publicly traded and privately placed stocks, bonds (including corporate and
government bonds), notes (whether redeemable in the short, medium or long-term), options, warrants,
rights, private claims, high-yield securities, distressed securities, bank debt, credit default swaps, equity
and debt derivatives, company obligations, non-U.S. currencies, and other securities and instruments,
ICAM does not hold itself out as specializing in any particular type of investment advisory service.
C. Advisory Services
ICAM
ICAM serves as managing member and investment manager to Long Ball Partners, LLC (“Long Ball”), a
private investment fund. ICAM may decide in the future to sponsor or manage additional private
investment funds (together with Long Ball, the “Funds” and each individually, a “Fund”).
ICAM intends to manage the Funds pursuant to the investment strategy or purpose described in the
confidential offering memorandum and/or operating agreement of each Fund (together, the “Fund
Documents”). Under the Fund Documents or the investment management agreement with a Fund, ICAM
generally has wide latitude to act upon any investment or to change any investment strategy to achieve the
investment objective or purpose of the Fund without obtaining the consent of Fund investors. Prior to
investing in a Fund, prospective investors should carefully read the Fund Documents for the Fund and
consult with their own counsel and advisers as to all matters concerning an investment in the Fund.
ICAM, through its employees, jointly prepares debt and equity research reports containing generic,
impersonal investment advice pursuant to an intercompany agreement with IC. From time to time, ICAM
may accept payments from clients of IC for the generic, impersonal investment advice contained in such
debt and equity investment reports. In most cases, clients of IC who receive investment publications from
the ICAM have no assets under management with the ICAM.
ICAM GP I
On March 1, 2019, ICAM GP I entered into agreements to act as the co-investment manager and co-
general partner with Hudson Capital Management (NY), L.P. (“HCM”), a third-party investment adviser,
and its affiliate(s) for the following private investment funds (collectively, the “Hudson Funds”):
Hudson Clean Energy Partners, L.P.,
HCEP Parallel, L.P.,
Hudson Clean Energy Partners (Cayman), L.P.,
Hudson Clean Energy Partners (Cayman T-E), L.P.,
CS Hudson Clean Energy Co-Invest Partners, L.P.,
Hudson Clean Energy Partners AIV, L.P.,
Hudson Clean Energy Partners (Master), L.P.,
Hudson Clean Energy Partners (Master) AIV, L.P., and
Hudson Clean Energy Partners (Master T-E), L.P.
None of the Hudson Funds are accepting new investors or acquiring any new investments due to the
expiration of their respective marketing and investment periods. ICAM GP I intends to manage the
Hudson Funds, jointly and in cooperation with HCM, pursuant to the terms and objectives described in
the investment advisory agreement with the Hudson Funds and HCM (the “Hudson Advisory
Agreement”). Under the Hudson Advisory Agreement, ICAM GP I generally will monitor the
performance of each Hudson Fund’s investments, analyze the business and operations of the portfolio
companies in which each Hudson Fund invests, and advise on the sale and disposition of the portfolio
companies. Any investment decisions by ICAM GP I and HCM will be subject to the consent of an
investment committee of the Hudson Funds, comprised of representatives of ICAM GP I and HCM and
an independent member appointed by the Hudson Fund investors (the “Hudson Investment Committee”).
ICAM GP I or its related persons may also serve on the board of directors or the management teams of
the Hudson Funds’ portfolio companies.
For purposes of this brochure, any references to a “Fund” or the “Funds” do not include the Hudson
Funds, and solely relate to Long Ball and any other private investment fund that is or may be managed by
ICAM. This brochure does not include descriptions of the fees (other than the fees to ICAM GP I
described in Item 5 below), expenses, investment strategies and risks of the Hudson Funds. Such
additional information about the Hudson Funds is provided in the Form ADV brochure of HCM (CRD:

A. Types of Fees
ICAM
Funds
Under the Fund Documents for Long Ball, ICAM is entitled to receive an annual management fee from
the Fund equal to approximately 1.50% (equal to .0125% on a monthly basis) of the capital account
balance of each Fund investor. ICAM, in its discretion, may waive or reduce the management fees as to
all or any of the investors in the Fund or agree with an investor to waive or alter the management fee as to
that investor.
ICAM also receives from each Fund an annual performance-based allocation in arrears equal to a
percentage of the net capital appreciation (i.e., capital appreciation less capital depreciation) of each
investor’s account in the Fund. The performance-based allocation is made only if, and to the extent that,
the net capital appreciation of the investor’s account exceeds any net capital depreciation accumulated in
prior years (as adjusted for withdrawals of capital). ICAM, in its discretion, may waive or reduce the
performance-based allocation as to all or any of the investors in the Fund.
Equity & Debt Research Reports
On occasion, certain clients of IC may make payments to ICAM for the generic, impersonal investment
advice contained in such debt and equity investment reports. Fees paid to ICAM by IC clients are
negotiable and vary. A portion of the fees received by ICAM may be paid over to IC to offset the cost
associated with providing the debt and equity investment reports.
ICAM GP I
Under the Hudson Advisory Agreement, ICAM GP I is entitled to receive from the Hudson Funds with
respect to those investors that consented to the co-management arrangement (the “Consenting Investors”)
a one-time engagement fee and a monthly advisory fee, payable in advance until the earlier of February
28, 2022 or the final liquidation of the Hudson Funds, equal to a fixed amount that is reduced on an
annual basis during the payment period. The engagement fee and advisory fees are paid by the Hudson
Funds on a pro rata basis by deduction from each Consenting Investor’s capital account in the Hudson
Funds. Advisory fees are negotiable based on the good faith discussions of ICAM GP I and the limited
partner advisory committee of the Hudson Funds. For its advice and assistance in executing the Hudson
Funds’ divestment strategies with respect to the portfolio companies, ICAM GP I or an affiliate also will
receive from the Hudson Funds with respect to the Consenting Investors fees equal to a percentage of the
total consideration received by the Hudson Funds as a result of certain dispositions. Such fees will be
reduced by the amount of the engagement fee paid by the Hudson Funds to ICAM GP I.
B. Payment Method
The management fee is paid by the Fund monthly in arrears by deduction from each investor’s capital
account in the Fund on the last business day of each calendar month. If an investor withdraws all or a
portion of its account in the Fund on a date other than the end of a calendar month, a prorated
management fee will be deducted from the amount withdrawn for the period from the preceding month-
end to the date of withdrawal.
The performance-based allocation from each Fund is made to ICAM by deduction from each investor’s
capital account in the Fund on December 31 (or the closest business day prior to December 31) for the 12-
month performance period ending on the prior calendar year for each year in which performance-based
allocation is earned. If an investor withdraws all or a portion of its account in a Fund on a date other than
December 31, the performance-based allocation will be made on the amount withdrawn for the period
from the January 1 in the year of the withdrawal to the date of withdrawal.
C. Costs and Expenses
The Fund bears all expenses of its respective organization and operation, expenses incurred in the
purchase and sale of investments, and accounting fees, as determined by ICAM. Such expenses include
but are not limited to: (i) investment-related expenses, including brokerage and execution charges,
commissions, custodial charges, and fees for quotation and other data services; (ii) fees related to
accounting, trading, portfolio management and risk management systems; (iii) research subscriptions and
expenses; (iv) broken trade and broken deal fees; (v) expenses relating to marketing the Fund to
prospective investors (including travel and software costs); (vi) expenses to register securities and transfer
taxes; (vii) costs and expenses incurred for the purpose of protecting and enhancing the value of the
Fund’s investments (including the costs of instituting and defending litigation); (viii) taxes, filing and
registration fees of the Fund; (ix) all costs, fees and expenses relating to investor communications,
relations, accounting and the preparation and mailing of financial, tax and performance information to
investors; (x) fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with borrowings; (xi) administration fees,
costs and expenses; and (xii) fees for attorneys, accountants, consultants and other professionals or
experts. Fund investors may also indirectly bear a portion of any fees or expenses charged by investment
funds (including mutual funds or other hedge funds) in which Long Ball invests or other investment
managers to which ICAM allocates a portion of a Fund’s assets. ICAM may, at its discretion, choose to
pay or reimburse Long Ball for all or any portion of such expenses. In such event, ICAM may be
reimbursed at a later date by the Fund for such expenses borne by ICAM. For additional information
regarding brokerage and execution fees, see Item 12 below.
D. Refunds
Not applicable.
E. Sales Compensation
ICAM will not receive sales commissions in connection with sales of interests in Long Ball.
please register to get more info
ICAM
ICAM receives performance-based compensation from the Fund. Compensation based on performance
will only be charged in accordance with the provisions of Rule 205-3 under the Advisers Act.
Performance-based compensation may create an incentive for ICAM to cause the Fund to make
investments that are riskier than it would otherwise make. In addition, ICAM’s performance-based
allocation from the Fund is calculated on a basis which includes unrealized appreciation of the assets held
by the Fund, which may be greater than if such allocation were based solely on realized gains.
In the event that some clients to which ICAM provides investment advisory services are charged a
performance-based compensation but not others, a conflict may arise where ICAM has an incentive to
treat some clients preferentially as compared to others because those clients pay a performance-based
compensation or because ICAM or one of its portfolio managers or affiliates has an interest in the client
account. ICAM has adopted a policy to allocate portfolio transactions and investment opportunities
across multiple client accounts on a fair and equitable basis over time. All eligible clients that can
participate in a transaction share the same price on a pro rata allocation basis in an attempt to mitigate any
conflicts of interest. Investment opportunities are allocated among similarly managed client portfolios to
maintain consistency of portfolio strategy, taking into account cash availability, investment restrictions
and guidelines, and portfolio composition.
Since management fees and performance-based compensation received by ICAM are based on the net
asset value of the Fund, a conflict may also arise when ICAM or a related person is valuing the assets
held by the Fund. Assets will generally be valued at fair value by ICAM or its related person in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting practices.
ICAM GP I
ICAM GP I is not entitle to receive any performance-based compensation from the Hudson Funds.
please register to get more info
As described in Item 4 above, ICAM organized and serves as investment manager to Long Ball. ICAM
generally requires investors to make a minimum initial investment in Long Ball of at least $1,000,000,
however ICAM may, in its sole discretion, waive the minimum subscription requirement for any investor.
Investors in the Fund generally must be “accredited investors” under Regulation D who are eligible to
enter into a performance-based compensation arrangement under the Advisers Act. ICAM generally
requires Fund investors to make representations concerning their financial sophistication and ability to
bear the risk of loss of their entire investment in the Fund.
ICAM GP I
As described in Item 4 above, ICAM GP I acts as the co-investment manager and co-general partner of
the Hudson Funds. Each Hudson Fund is a private equity fund focused primarily on investments in the
clean energy sector. All of the Hudson Funds are closed to any new investors due to the expiration of
their respective marketing periods.

ICAM
A. Methods of Analysis and Investment Strategies
Investment Analysis
Investments for the Fund are identified and selected by the ICAM. ICAM’s research team evaluates
investments based on an intensive due diligence process and critical analysis of each potential portfolio
company’s fundamentals (e.g., financial statements, management capability, profitability, cash flow, lines
of business and market share) and may determine intrinsic value based on corporate assets, revenues,
earnings and other factors. Following an investment by a Fund, ICAM will continue to monitor the
progress and suitability of portfolio investments as well as market and economic outlook.
To help develop its investment recommendations, ICAM’s research team may use commercially available
information services and financial publications dealing with investment research, securities law and
taxation. Such information may be obtainable in print, via the internet or by some other means. Issuer-
prepared materials (particularly prospectuses), court filings and bankruptcy documentation, private
placement due diligence materials, and research releases prepared by third parties are also utilized.
ICAM also may use research materials prepared by various investment product vendors or custodians as
well as in-house analysts. ICAM may also obtain information by meeting with an issuer’s management,
customers or competitors, attending industry conferences and consulting with experts in the appropriate
field.
Investments by the Fund may also include assets in other privately offered investment funds (hedge
funds) or comingled investment vehicles (“Portfolio Funds”). As the private fund market is complex and
fragmented, making the selection of Portfolio Funds is expected to be a time consuming process requiring
in-depth industry expertise and contacts. ICAM makes a qualitative evaluation of potential Portfolio
Funds and their strategies, seeking to identify funds that have experience in their area of expertise; clear,
well developed, and adhered to strategies; reasonable rates of growth; and excellent references. ICAM
seeks to develop a working relationship with each Portfolio Fund to ensure timely and accurate reporting,
accurate and verifiable mark-to-market values, adequate transparency, a free flow of information and
acceptable documentation.
Investment in securities involves risk of loss that investors in a Fund must be prepared to bear.
Investment Strategies – Long Ball
Long Ball’s investment objective is to provide superior and consistent risk adjusted returns to its
investors. ICAM intends to construct Long Ball’s portfolio to optimize the risk/reward characteristics
that best suit the interests of Long Ball’s members and will not restrict its approach to any formal
investment style criteria. However, in general, ICAM will have an opportunistic value approach to
investing, with a focus on catalysts for value creation or destruction. ICAM believes that favorable
investment opportunities may be found in all capitalization ranges, asset classes, geographies and market
or industry segments. ICAM believes that absolute value, and, selectively, relative value, combined with
a favorable catalyst, provides the best long term means to provide capital appreciation and preservation.
In effect, it views its opportunistic style as both an offensive and defensive strategy. There can be no
assurance that Long Ball's investment objective will be achieved.
Long Ball may invest in all forms of stocks, bonds, notes, options, warrants, rights, private claims, high-
yield securities, distressed securities, bank debt, credit default swaps, equity and debt derivatives,
company obligations, non-U.S. currencies, futures, options on futures, and other securities and
instruments of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers that are traded publicly and privately, including real estate
investments, cash, and cash equivalents. Long Ball may also enter into lending transactions, including
with affiliated entities. Long Ball will utilize short selling, hedging strategies, and may leverage its
investments by buying securities on margin (i.e., with credit supplied by broker-dealers through which
securities are purchased). In severely poor market conditions which are typically present in secular bear
markets, Long Ball may hold higher levels of short exposure, significant levels of cash or turn over the
portfolio more frequently in an effort to minimize systematic market risk.
ICAM has broad discretion to use any securities trading or investment techniques, whether or not
contemplated by the expected investment strategies and criteria described above. Depending on
conditions and trends in securities markets and the economy generally, ICAM may pursue any other
objectives, or any other techniques that it considers appropriate and in the best interests of Long Ball.
Many of the investment techniques and activities described above are high-risk activities that could result
in substantial losses. Prospective investors should carefully read Long Ball’s Fund Documents and
consult with their own counsel and advisers as to all matters concerning an investment in the Fund.
B. Investment Strategy Risks
Acquiring interests in the Fund is intended for sophisticated investors who can accept a high degree of
risk in their portfolio, do not need regular current income from their investment with ICAM and can
accept a potential loss of their entire investment. Investment risks specific to the investment strategy of
the Fund are described in the Fund Documents of the Fund. Such risks may include (but are not limited
to):
Concentration. The Fund may hold a relatively small number of securities. Losses incurred in
such securities could have a disproportionate effect on the Fund’s overall financial condition.
Portfolio Management. The performance of the Fund depends on the skill of ICAM and its
portfolio manager(s) in making appropriate investment decisions.
Leverage. The use of leverage by buying securities on margin or use of certain derivatives is a
speculative technique that involves special risk considerations. Interest costs on borrowings may
fluctuate with changing market rates of interest and may partially offset or exceed the return
earned on borrowed funds. Interest on borrowings will be an expense of the Fund and will affect
the investment performance of the Fund. To the extent that the Fund is leveraged, the value of its
assets will tend to increase more when its portfolio securities increase in value, and to decrease
more when its portfolio securities decrease in value, than if its assets were not leveraged.
Short Selling. Short sales that are not part of a hedging strategy are speculative and involve
special risk considerations. Since a short seller in effect profits from a decline in the price of the
securities sold short without the need to invest the full purchase price of the securities on the date
of the short sale, returns will tend to increase more when the securities sold short decrease in
value, and to decrease more when the securities sold short increase in value, than would
otherwise be the case if the short seller had not engaged in such short sales. Short sales
theoretically involve unlimited loss potential as the market price of securities sold short may
continuously increase.
Portfolio Turnover. Buying and selling securities generally involves some expense to the Fund,
such as commissions and other transaction costs. Generally, the higher the Fund’s portfolio
turnover, the greater its brokerage costs and the greater the likelihood that it will realize taxable
capital gains. Increased brokerage costs may adversely affect the performance of the Fund.
Highly Volatile Markets. The prices of investments held by the Fund can be highly volatile.
Price movements of forward contracts, futures contracts and other derivative contracts in which
ICAM may invest Fund assets are influenced by, among other things, interest rates, changing
supply and demand relationships, trade, fiscal, monetary and exchange control programs and
policies of governments, and national and international political and economic events and
policies.
Limited Liquidity. Some of the securities in which the Fund invests may be relatively illiquid,
either because they are thinly traded, because they are traded in the over-the-counter market or on
a regional exchange, or because they are subject to transfer restrictions. The Fund may not be
able to promptly liquidate those investments if the need should arise, and their ability to realize
gains, or to avoid losses in periods of rapid market activity, may therefore be affected.
Hedging Strategies. Special risks are associated with the use of options, futures contracts and
swaps as hedging techniques, including fluctuations in the volatility of the underlying security,
fluctuations in prevailing interest rate and a lack of correlation between price movements in the
hedging vehicle and in the portfolio securities being hedged which may result in a loss on both
the hedged securities and the hedging vehicle. In addition, a decision as to whether, when and
how to use a particular hedging strategy involves the exercise of skill and judgment which are
different from those needed to select portfolio securities, and even a well-conceived transaction
may be unsuccessful to some degree because of market behavior, currency fluctuations or interest
rate trends. If ICAM is incorrect in its forecasts relating to a hedge, the Fund may be in a worse
position than if they had not engaged in the hedging transaction. The potential loss incurred by
the Fund in swaps, futures and writing options on futures is unlimited. There can be no assurance
that a liquid market will exist at a time when the Fund seeks to close out an option position or
futures or swap contract.
Risk of Private Debt Investments. Private debt investments involve a high degree of financial
risk. There can be no assurance that investments by the Fund will be profitable or that substantial
losses will not occur. Debt instruments are subject to credit and interest rate risks. Credit risk
refers to the likelihood that an obligor will default in the payment of principal and/or interest on
an instrument. Financial strength and solvency of an obligor are the primary factors influencing
credit risk. The Fund will depend primarily upon the creditworthiness of the borrowers as
obligors for payment of principal and interest. While a borrower may not have credit issues at the
time it receives a loan from the Fund, it is possible that extraordinary circumstances may arise
which cause the borrower to suffer from a reduced ability to repay its interest and principal
obligations or even default on interest and/or principal payments due to the Fund. If the Fund
does not receive scheduled interest or principal payments on a loan, the Fund may incur
additional expenses in seeking to recover under such a loan. Credit risk may change over the life
of an instrument.
Potential Conflicts of Interest. Investments in the Fund are subject to potential and actual
conflicts of interest (as described in this brochure). For information on how ICAM addresses
conflicts of interest, see Item 11(A) below.
Cybersecurity Risk. ICAM’s information and technology systems may be susceptible to damage
or interruption from computer viruses, network failures, computer and telecommunication
failures, infiltration by unauthorized persons, security breaches, and employee errors. Although
ICAM has implemented various measures to manage risks relating to these types of events,
breach of ICAM’s information systems may cause information (including personally identifiable
information) to be lost or improperly accessed, used or disclosed.
C. Portfolio Investment Risks
ICAM generally provides investment advice on a wide variety of U.S. and foreign investment products,
including publicly traded and privately placed securities, but does not invest in any particular type of
investment product. Risks may include (but are not limited to):
Equity Securities. By investing in stocks, ICAM may expose the Fund to a sudden decline in the
share price or to an overall decline in the stock market. The value of investments held by the
Fund will fluctuate daily and cyclically based on changes in the issuer’s financial condition and
prospects and on overall market and economic conditions.
Small-Cap Companies. Investments in small-cap companies may involve greater risks than
investments in larger, more established companies, such as limited product lines, distribution
channels and financial and managerial resources. The securities of small-cap companies may
have greater price volatility and less liquidity than the securities of larger capitalized companies,
and may be more difficult to value.
Fixed Income Securities. The prices of fixed income securities respond to economic
developments, particularly interest rate changes, as well as to perceptions of an issuer’s
creditworthiness. Generally, fixed income securities decrease in value if interest rates rise and
increase in value if interest rates fall, with lower rated securities more volatile than higher rated
securities. The duration of these securities affects risk as well, with longer term securities
generally more volatile than shorter term securities.
High Yield Bonds and Non-Performing Debt. Fixed income securities that are below investment
grade or unrated involve greater risks of default and are more volatile than investment grade
securities. High yield bonds involve a greater risk of price declines than investment grade
securities due to actual or perceived changes in an issuer’s creditworthiness. In addition, issuers
of high yield bonds may be more susceptible than other issuers to economic downturns, which
may result in a weakened capacity of the issuer to make principal or interest payments. High
yield bonds are subject to a greater risk that the issuer may not be able to pay interest or dividends
and ultimately to repay principal upon maturity.
The Fund may also invest in non-performing, “distressed” debt—high yield bonds issued by
entities that have already indicated an inability to pay outstanding interest or principal. The value
and liquidity of these instruments may be diminished by adverse publicity and investor
perceptions. In addition, the ultimate recovery for holders of such bonds often depends upon the
resolution of complex legal questions, determined in the context of a bankruptcy reorganization.
These securities often are contractually or structurally subordinated in right of payment to prior
claims of banks or other senior lenders, and will typically be unsecured.
Tax Liens. There are unique risks related to acquisition of tax lien certificates. ICAM will have
no control over the maturity of the certificates and may be forced to initiate foreclosure
proceedings with respect to the property subject to a lien held by the Fund (a “subject property”).
Environmental concerns, litigation, natural disasters, adverse changes in zoning laws and other
regulatory obligations and restrictions with respect to the subject property may result in
unexpected expenses, delays redemptions of the tax liens, and may cause the Fund’s investment
to decrease in value.
Preferred Securities. Preferred securities offers a stated dividend rate payable from a
corporation’s earning, which may be cumulative or non-cumulative, participating, or auction rate.
If interest rates rise, the fixed dividend on preferred securities may be less attractive, causing the
prices to decline. Preferred securities may have mandatory sinking fund provisions and
call/redemption provisions prior to maturity, a negative feature when interest rates decline.
Preferred securities are generally subordinate to the rights associated with an issuer’s debt
securities in terms of priority to corporate income and liquidation payments, and therefore are
subject to greater credit risk than more senior debt instruments. Preferred securities may be
substantially less liquid than many other securities.
Convertible Securities. Like other fixed income securities, the market value of a convertible debt
security tends to vary inversely with the level of interest rates. A convertible security may be
subject to redemption at the option of the issuer at a price established in the instrument governing
the convertible security. If a convertible security held by the Fund is called for redemption, the
Fund will be required to permit the issuer to redeem the security, convert it into the underlying
common stock or sell it to a third party.
Foreign Securities. Foreign investments tend to be more volatile than U.S. securities, and are
subject to risks that are not typically associated with U.S. securities. For example, such
investments may be adversely affected by changes in currency rates and exchange control
regulations, unfavorable political, social and economic developments and the possibility of
seizure or nationalization of companies or imposition of withholding taxes on income. Moreover,
less information may be publicly available concerning certain foreign issuers than is available
concerning U.S. companies. Foreign markets tend to be more volatile than the U.S. market due to
economic and political instability, social unrest and regulatory conditions in some countries.
Exchange-Traded Funds (“ETFs”). The risks of owning an ETF generally reflect the risks of
owning the underlying securities they are designed to track, although lack of liquidity in an ETF
could result in it being more volatile and ETFs have management fees that increase their costs.
ETFs are also subject to other risks, including: (a) the risk that their prices may not correlate
perfectly with changes in the underlying index, and (b) the risk of possible trading halts. An
exchange-traded sector fund may also be adversely affected by the performance of that specific
sector or group of industries on which it is based. To the extent the Fund invests in leveraged
ETFs, the value of a leveraged ETF will tend to increase more when its underlying index
increases in value, and to decrease more when its underlying index decreases in value, than if the
ETF was not leveraged.
Derivatives. Derivatives involve the risks separate from the risks of the underlying instrument,
including improper valuation and ambiguous documentation and the risk that changes in the value
of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying instrument. Derivatives are also
subject to other risks, such as the risk of an illiquid secondary market which may result in
significant, rapid, and unpredictable changes in the prices for such derivatives, risks relating to
the financial soundness and credit worthiness of the counterparty, and the risk of the failure of
any of the exchanges on which a client account’s positions trade or of their clearinghouses. The
use of a derivative is speculative if ICAM is primarily seeking to enhance returns, rather than
offset the risk of other positions. When ICAM invests Fund assets in derivatives for speculative
purposes, the Fund will be fully exposed to the risks of loss of that derivative, which may
sometimes be greater than the cost of the derivative.
Trade Claims. Trade claims generally are unsecured and ownership is not evidenced by a
certificate. The amount realized on a trade claim, if any, will generally depend upon its ultimate
disposition in the bankruptcy reorganization. The secondary market for trade claims is thin, and
as a result ICAM expects that these investments will be illiquid.
Portfolio Funds. Various risks are associated with investing in Portfolio Funds, and the
investment strategies and tactics that Portfolio Funds may use. Portfolio Funds may provide
ICAM with very limited information with respect to its operations and performance, thereby
severely limiting ICAM’s ability to (i) verify any representation made by such fund, (ii) monitor
any investment strategy being employed by such fund, or (iii) detect any misconduct or fraud
engaged in by such fund. To the extent that ICAM invests the Fund’s assets in a Portfolio Fund
that restricts the ability of investors to effect withdrawals, ICAM may not be able to withdraw
Fund assets invested in such fund promptly after it has made a decision to do so, which may
result in a loss to the Fund. To the extent a Portfolio Fund is permitted to distribute securities in
kind to investors making withdrawals, upon withdrawal of all or a portion of Fund assets invested
in such fund, the Fund may receive securities that are illiquid or difficult to value.
Swap Agreements. The Fund may enter into equity, debt, interest rate, index, currency rate, total
return and other types of swap agreements. Depending on their structure, swap agreements may
increase or decrease the Fund’s exposure to long-term or short-term interest rates (in the United
States or abroad), foreign currency values, mortgage securities, corporate borrowing rates, or
other factors such as security prices, baskets of securities, or inflation rates. In addition, if a
counterparty’s creditworthiness declines, the value of a swap agreement would be likely to
decline, potentially resulting in losses.
Loan Originations, Participations and Assignments. Loan originations, purchasers of loans and
other forms of direct indebtedness depend primarily upon the creditworthiness of the borrower for
payment of principal and interest. Purchasers of loan participations may also assume the credit
risk associated with an interposed bank or other financial intermediary. Unless, under the terms
of the loan or other indebtedness, the Fund hase direct recourse against the borrower, they may
have to rely on the agent bank or other financial intermediary to apply appropriate credit remedies
against a borrower. Loans and other types of direct indebtedness may not be readily marketable
and may be subject to restrictions on resale. Investments in loans through a direct assignment of
the financial institution’s interests with respect to the loan may involve additional risks to the
Fund, including the costs and liabilities associated with owning and disposing of the collateral
upon a loan’s foreclosure, potential co-lender liability, and uncertain protection under securities
laws against fraud and misrepresentation.

A. Registration as a Broker-Dealer or Registered Representative
Jason W. Reese (CEO and Chairman of ICAM; Executive Committee Member of ICAMH), Randall E.
Wooster (Executive Committee Member of ICAMH), Mark Martis (COO and CFO of ICAM), and Todd
Wiench (General Counsel/CCO of ICAM) maintain registrations with Imperial Capital, LLC (“IC”), an
affiliated securities broker-dealer registered with the SEC, FINRA and various states, and may conduct
business on behalf of, or in their capacity as, representatives for IC.
B. Registration as a Futures Commission Merchant, Commodity Pool Operator, Commodity
Trading Adviser or Associated Person
Neither ICAM nor its employees hold any of the above registrations.
C. Material Relationships with Affiliates
1. broker-dealer, municipal securities dealer, or government securities dealer or broker
Both ICAM’s parent company, ICAMH, and IC’s parent company, ICG, are owned and controlled by
ICGH and several ICG employees. Subject to the ICAM’s obligation to seek best execution, ICAM
expects to utilize the services of IC for substantially all of the Fund’s portfolio transactions.
Consequently, IC will share in a portion of the revenues normally and customarily generated by a
broker-dealer from the securities transactions of the Fund.
IC may buy securities from and sell securities to the Fund in its capacity as a principal or agent, and
act as a financial or M&A adviser, underwriter, placement agent or initial purchaser in securities
transactions in which the Fund participates.
In executing trades for the Fund, IC may charge customary brokerage commissions or markups, fees
and expenses in connection with the transaction. In all cases in which portfolio securities transactions
are directed to IC (or to any other broker), ICAM will determine in good faith that the brokerage
commissions or markups, fees and expenses charged in connection with such transactions are
reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage, research and other services provided by that
broker, viewed in terms of either the specific transaction or ICAM’s overall responsibilities to its
clients. ICAM has no obligation to affect any particular volume of transactions through IC.
2. investment company or other pooled investment vehicle (including a mutual fund, closed-end
investment company, unit investment trust, private investment company or “hedge fund,” and
offshore fund)
See Item 7 above. Investors in the Fund must understand that the Fund was formed as an investment
product to be managed by ICAM, and that ICAM does not intend to cause the Fund to terminate its
investment management relationship with ICAM absent ICAM’s liquidation or bankruptcy.
However, ICAM has a fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of the Fund that it manages, and
investors in the Fund have the right to withdraw from the Fund at any time subject to any notice
requirement, lock-up period or other withdrawal limitations described in the Fund Documents.
ICAM may from time to time enter into a side letter agreement with one or more investors in the
Fund which may, among other terms, provide for (a) withdrawal rights that are more favorable than
the rights granted to all other Fund investors, (b) a reduced management fee and/or performance-
based compensation, or (c) greater or more frequent reporting with respect to the Fund.
In addition, neither ICAM nor its related persons are obligated to allocate any specific amount of time
or investment opportunities to a particular Fund. ICAM and its related persons intend to devote as
much time as they deem necessary for the conduct of the Fund’s operation and portfolio management,
and will allocate investment opportunities in accordance with ICAM’s trade allocation policy
described in Item 6 above.
Neither ICAM GP I nor its related persons are obligated to allocate any specific amount of time to the
Hudson Funds.
3. other investment adviser or financial planner
See Item 4.C above. ICAM GP I, a relying adviser, is owned and controlled by ICAM and acts as the
co-investment manager of the Hudson Funds jointly and in cooperation with HCM. HCM is a third-
party investment adviser and not a related person of the Advisers. In managing the Hudson Funds,
ICAM GP I will rely on ICAM’s related persons in connection with the performance of its advisory

TRANSACTIONS AND PERSONAL TRADING
A. Code of Ethics
In order to address conflicts of interest, ICAM has adopted a code of ethics (the “Code”) which is
applicable to all of ICAM’s officers, manager, members, and employees (collectively, “Employees”). As
a relying adviser, ICAM GP I and its Employees (if any) are also subject to the Code. ICAM’s Code
generally sets the standard of ethical and professional business conduct that the Advisers require of their
Employees, requires Employees to comply with applicable federal securities laws and regulations, and
sets forth provisions regarding personal securities transactions by Employees. Additionally, the Code sets
forth the Advisers’ policies and procedures with respect to material, non-public information and other
confidential information, and the fiduciary obligations that the Advisers and each of its Employees owes
to each advisory client. The Code is circulated at least annually to all Employees, and each Employee at
least annually must certify in writing that he or she has received and followed the Code and any
amendments thereto. The Advisers will provide a copy of the Code to any client or prospective client
upon request.
B. Participation or Interest in Client Transactions
Subject to Adviser’s obligation to seek best execution, Adviser expects to execute a significant portion of
client securities transactions through IC, an affiliated broker-dealer. See Item 10(C)(1).
To the extent that the Advisers manage other client accounts, the Advisers may solicit qualified clients to
invest in a private fund or other investment vehicle sponsored or managed by the Advisers (each, a
“Related Fund”). Because of the relationship between the Advisers and any Related Fund, the Advisers
could be considered to have recommended the investment as suitable for a client if such person should
invest in the fund. the Advisers will inform each client of its relationship with a Related Fund prior to the
client’s investment, but does not intend to advise clients as to the appropriateness of the investment and
will not receive any compensation for doing so or for selling interests in a Related Fund (except to the
extent that ICAM receive management fees and/or performance-based compensation from all Fund
investors). ICAM may, from time to time at its discretion, suggest that investors in the Fund invest in a
co-investment vehicle sponsored by ICAM.
The Fund may participate in loan or other financing transactions with companies in which ICG or any of
its affiliates holds equity or other participation interest (each, a “Related Company”). Negotiations
between the Fund and a Related Company with respect to loan or financing terms will not constitute an
arms’ length transaction. ICG or its affiliate, through its interest in both parties in a transaction, could
have an incentive to provide favorable terms to the Related Company. There can be no assurance that a
transaction will be made on terms at least as favorable as those that would have obtained in a transaction
between third parties. Before entering into the transaction with a Related Company, ICAM will first
determine in good faith that it is in the Fund’s best interest to enter into the transaction and that the terms
of the loan are reasonable in relation to its value, viewed in terms of the specific transaction and in
comparison to other loan transactions. The Fund or a Related Company may utilize another ICG affiliate
to service the loan or provide other related services, which may result in a layering of fees. ICAM
believes the fees paid to any ICG affiliate are within market range for such services, but may not be the
lowest available.
ICAM may direct the Fund to invest a portion of their assets in a Related Fund. A Fund’s investment in a
Related Fund generally will result in a layering of fees and expenses. The investment strategies of a
Related Fund may require substantial trading costs and, as a result, expenses may exceed those of other
portfolio investments of the Fund. If a Related Fund is sponsored or managed by ICAM or any of its
affiliates, any fees or expenses will benefit and be set by ICAM or its affiliate. ICAM will determine in
good faith that such an investment is appropriate for the Fund, and that the fees and expenses charged to
the Fund are reasonable in relation to the value of the investment and other private funds.
Under certain circumstances, IC may act as a broker for both a Fund and a third person on the other side
of a trade, a so-called “agency cross transaction.” In such a case, IC may receive commissions, fees and
expenses from, and have a potentially conflicting division of loyalties and responsibilities regarding, both
parties to the transaction. All such transactions will be disclosed to the Fund in accordance with the
Advisers Act, and ICAM will prepare annual statements summarizing such transactions and the
commissions paid to IC, if any, for agency cross transactions. No agency cross transactions will be
effected in which ICAM or IC has recommended the transaction to both the buyer and the seller unless
ICAM provides prior written disclosure to the client and obtains client consent to such transaction in
accordance with the Advisers Act.
Under certain circumstances, IC may effect securities transactions as principal with the Advisers’ clients.
A client will only engage in principal transactions with IC to the extent permitted by applicable law and
the client’s governing documents, and where the applicable Adviser believes such transactions are
appropriate. Each Adviser represents that neither it nor IC will engage in any principal transactions
unless the applicable Adviser sends each client who may be affected thereby with a written notice before
the completion of such transaction, indicating the capacity in which the Adviser or IC is acting. All such
transactions will be disclosed to the client in accordance with the Advisers Act, and the applicable
Adviser will prepare annual statements summarizing such transactions which include all commissions or
other remuneration received by IC, if any, for principal transactions.
To the extent that the Advisers manage other client accounts, the Advisers may seek to adjust or rebalance
client accounts by effecting cross-trades between or among client accounts (i.e., causing one or more
client accounts to sell securities to one or more other client accounts). All such cross-trades will be
consistent with the investment objectives and policies of each client account involved in the trades, and
will be affected at the current independent market price of the securities involved in the trades. Any
client accounts involved in cross-trades will not pay any brokerage commissions or mark-ups in
connection with the trades to the broker-dealer or the Advisers, but will reimburse the applicable broker-
dealer for any customary trading costs and/or transfer fees (i.e., aggregate ticket charges) that such
broker-dealer incurs and that are assessed by any other broker-dealers through which it effects the trades.
C. Personal Trading
The Advisers believe that if investment goals are similar for clients and for Employees of the Advisers, it
is logical and even desirable that there be common ownership of some securities. At the same time, the
Advisers recognize that there is a risk that Employees will compete with client accounts or otherwise
engage in personal securities transactions at the expense of a client’s interest. In order to maintain a high
code of conduct, ICAM’s Code requires that all such transactions be carried out in a way that does not
endanger the interest of any client. The Code establishes certain black-out periods, pre-clearance
procedures and a quarterly securities transaction reporting system that is designed to monitor transactions
in Employees’ personal accounts and prevent any conflicts that may arise between Employees’ personal
securities transactions and transactions for clients of the Advisers. For purposes of the policy, an
Employee’s “personal account” generally includes any account (i) in the name of the Employee, his/her
spouse, his/her minor children or other dependents residing in the same household, (ii) for which the
Employee is a trustee or executor, or (iii) which the Employee controls, including an Adviser’s client
accounts which the Employee controls and in which the Employee or a member of his/her household has
a direct or indirect beneficial interest. Additional restrictions on personal trading of the portfolio
securities of a Fund may be imposed on investment committee members of the Fund and related parties
pursuant to the Fund’s governing agreement.
Employees who are registered representatives of IC will also be subject to the terms and restrictions with
respect to personal trading in IC’s code of ethics.
D. Concurrent Trading Activity
Under ICAM’s Code, Employees are generally subject to black-out periods surrounding securities
transactions for client accounts, other than to unwind transactions affected prior to employment with the
Advisers. Any unwinding transaction by an Employee will be subject to the Code’s pre-clearance
procedures.
The Advisers generally will not aggregate securities transactions for clients. However, where available
and appropriate, transactions to purchase or sell the same security may be effected at the same time for
numerous client accounts, some of which accounts may have similar investment objectives. The Advisers
may (but is not obligated to) combine or “batch” such orders. When combined orders occur, the Advisers
will seek to allocate the execution and the costs incurred as a result of such execution in a manner that is
deemed equitable to the accounts involved.

A. Selection of Broker-Dealers
Execution Quality. The Advisers will generally seek “best execution” in light of the circumstances
involved in transactions. In selecting a broker for any transactions, the Advisers may consider a number
of factors, including, for example, net price, availability, reputation, financial strength and stability,
efficiency of execution and error resolution, the size of the transaction and the market for the security.
Neither Adviser will obligate itself to obtain the lowest commission or best net price for an account on
any particular transaction. Subject to the Advisers’ obligation to seek best execution and any restrictions
or conditions in a client’s governing documents, the Advisers expect to execute substantially all of
client’s securities transactions through IC. See Item 10(C) above.
During the last fiscal year, ICAM directed client transactions to broker-dealers based on their reputation,
financial strength and stability, efficiency of execution and error resolution, the size of the transaction and
the market for the security, the value of the ongoing relationship of ICAM with such broker-dealers, and
the comprehensiveness and frequency of available research services and products provided by the broker-
dealer. ICAM monitors transaction results as orders are executed to evaluate the quality of execution
provided by the various brokers and dealers it uses, to determine that compensation rates are competitive
and otherwise to evaluate the reasonableness of the compensation paid to those brokers and dealers in
light of all the factors described above.
Research and Other Soft Dollars. While ICAM generally obtains research services and products from its
in-house research analysts and does not intend to have any soft dollar arrangements, any decisions
involving soft dollars will be made in a manner that satisfies the requirements of the safe harbor provided
by Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. That is, ICAM will generally
determine, considering all appropriate factors, that commissions and fees paid are reasonable in relation to
the value of all the brokerage and research products and services provided by the broker-dealer.
Brokerage for Client Referrals. Subject to applicable law and regulation, in selecting brokers for any
securities transactions, ICAM may direct a portion of a client’s brokerage business to brokers who
introduce the client to ICAM. Because referrals could benefit ICAM, selecting a broker based on client
referrals may give rise to conflicts of interest in allocating client brokerage business. ICAM will not
allocate client brokerage business to a referring broker unless ICAM determines in good faith that the
commissions and transaction costs payable to such broker are not materially higher than those available
from other non-referring brokers offering services of similar execution quality.
Directed Brokerage. Not applicable.
B. Aggregation of Orders
See Item 11(D) above.

A. Periodic Account Review
All accounts are generally reviewed on a daily basis by Jason Reese, Portfolio Manager, and Mark Martis,
COO. Account reviews focus on the review of all securities using fundamental analysis. Particular
attention is given to changes in client objectives, development with respect to specific issues,
developments with respect to specific issuers, developments and trends in general economic factors such
as interest rates and market levels, general economic trends, and relative/absolute valuation levels.
ICAM GP I
ICAM GP I and HCM, as the co-investment managers of the Hudson Funds, will review the portfolio
investments of the Hudson Funds on an ongoing basis. Particular attention will be given to the objectives
of the Hudson Funds; developments in the business, operations, properties, financial conditions,
competition, forecast, prospects and management of the portfolio companies; and developments in the
potential sale or disposition of the investments of the Hudson Funds in the portfolio companies.
B. Non-Periodic Account Review
Not applicable.
C. Client Reports
ICAM
Each qualified custodian sends an account statement, at least quarterly, to each client for which it
maintains funds or securities, identifying the amount of funds and all transactions in the account during
the period.
ICAM provides Long Ball investors with annual audited statements and a statement of each investor’s
capital account as of the fiscal year end. Each investor also receives an unaudited quarterly report from
ICAM which discusses general account performance.
ICAM may make the reports available in hardcopy or solely via electronic transmission. ICAM, in its
discretion, may provide more frequent reports and/or more detailed information to all or any of the
investors in the Fund.
ICAM GP I
Typically, investors in the Hudson Funds receive quarterly financial reports and audited annual financial
statements. Pursuant to the limited partnership agreements of the Hudson Funds (the “Hudson Fund
Agreements”), the Hudson Fund Co-GPs will provide periodic reports with respect to the sale or other
disposition of any portfolio company interests by the Hudson Funds, generally on a monthly basis to the
limited partner advisory committee of the Hudson Funds and on a quarterly basis to the Hudson Fund
investors. The Hudson Fund Agreements may provide for other types and frequency of reporting to the
Hudson Fund investors, including any tax reporting information.

investment advice or other advisory services to their respective clients.
B. Compensation for Client Referrals

Custody of the assets of a Fund will be maintained with a qualified custodian selected by ICAM in its
exclusive discretion, which selection may change from time to time without the consent of investors in
the Fund. While ICAM will not maintain physical possession of the funds or securities of any Fund,
ICAM, as the managing member of Long Ball, has authority to direct the qualified custodian to transfer
funds and securities in the Fund’s portfolio and pay out the management fees and/or performance-based
compensation.
In accordance with the custody requirements contained in Rule 206(4)-2 under the Advisers Act, ICAM
has entered into an arrangement with an independent public accountant pursuant to which the Fund will
be subject to an annual audit. As described in Item 13(C) above, ICAM will provide a copy of the audited
financial statements to investors in the Fund. ICAM generally intends for the Fund to be subject to an
annual audit.
ICAM GP I
ICAM GP I will not maintain physical possession of any funds or portfolio securities of the Hudson
Funds. In addition, under the Hudson Fund Agreements, ICAM GP I may not direct the transfer of any
funds or securities in any Hudson Fund’s portfolio without the consent of Hudson GP. In the event that
Hudson Fund Co-GPs are unable to agree, the decision with respect to such transfer will be determined by
the Hudson Investment Committee.
In accordance with the custody requirements contained in Rule 206(4)-2 under the Advisers Act, the
funds and securities of the Hudson Funds (other than privately issued uncertificated securities) are
maintained with a qualified custodian, and investors in the Hudson Funds generally will receive annual
audited financial statements prepared by an independent public accountant.

ICAM has discretionary authority to make the following determinations without obtaining the consent of
the Fund before the transactions are effected:
the securities that are to be bought or sold;
the total amount of the securities to be bought or sold;
the brokers through which securities are to be bought or sold; and
the commission rates at which securities transactions for client Funds are effected.
ICAM’s discretionary authority with respect to the Fund is derived from an express grant of authority
under the Fund Documents and/or the investment management agreement with the Fund.
ICAM GP I
ICAM GP I does not have independent investment discretion with respect to the Hudson Funds. Pursuant
to the Hudson Fund Agreements, any decision on behalf of any Hudson Fund to invest in or dispose of
any portfolio company interests will require the unanimous consent of Hudson Fund Co-GPs as well as
the consent of the Hudson Investment Committee.

Generally, ICAM will vote (by proxy or otherwise) in all matters for which a shareholder vote is solicited
by, or with respect to, issuers of securities beneficially held by a Fund in accordance with ICAM’s proxy
voting policies and procedures (the “Policies”).
The Policies require ICAM to vote proxies received in a manner consistent with the best interests of its
clients. The Policies also require ICAM to vote proxies in a prudent and diligent manner intended to
enhance the economic value of the assets of the client that beneficially owns the voting securities.
However, the Policies permit ICAM to abstain from voting proxies in the event that the client’s economic
interest in the matter being voted upon is limited relative to its overall portfolio or the impact of the vote
will not have an effect on the outcome of the matter up for vote or on the client’s economic interests.
In accordance with the Policies, each decision to vote for or against a proxy proposal or to abstain from
voting will be made by ICAM on a case-by-case basis. Where a proxy proposal raises a material conflict
between ICAM’s interests and the interests of a client, ICAM will seek to resolve the conflict.
Upon request to ICAM, a Fund investor client may request information on how ICAM voted shares on
behalf of the Fund, as applicable.
ICAM GP I
Generally, the Hudson Fund Co-GPs by unanimous consent will vote (by proxy or otherwise) in all
matters for which a shareholder vote is solicited by, or with respect to, issuers of securities beneficially
held by the Hudson Funds. In the event that Hudson Fund Co-GPs are unable to agree, the decision with
respect to such shareholder vote will be determined by the Hudson Investment Committee. In making
any decision to vote proxies, ICAM GP I will comply with the Policies.
