Program Description: Launched in May 2006, the quantitative JEM CRV Program seeks to profit from price movements in related commodity contracts based on both market and fundamental indicators. The strategy offers a highly diversified portfolio covering the energies, base & precious metals, grains, livestock and softs. CRV’s market- neutral strategies capture forward curve alpha via calendar spreads, while its new basket-neutral strategies capture profits from offsetting long and short positions across commodity markets. CRV is an absolute return program that generates commodity alpha with almost no commodity beta. It has nearly zero correlation to all major asset classes and hedge fund styles, including commodity indices, CTAs and commodity strategies (see table below).<br><br> The Program is open for investment via JEM CRV Fund II, our Cayman and Delaware based Master-Feeder structure. These Funds offer access to our 1X, 2X, and 3X Programs with many of the advantages of a managed account, including top-tier service providers, solid cash management, efficient margin usage, and semi-monthly liquidity. Please contact us for investment information.

Accounting Notes
Monthly returns from May 16 2006 to October 31 2022 (198 months, 4,231 trading days) are based on a gross composite of representative traded accounts, scaled to reflect their selected exposure level (1X to 3X Programs). Actual commissions are included, as are assumed interest and pro forma fees of 1% annual management and 25% performance. Benchmark interest is the 90-day SOFR rate (as of 4/1/2020, prior to which it was the 90-day Eurodollar rate, capped at 3% during Sept. – Dec. 2008), and is not scaled with exposure level. The trading level of $731M is the aggregate 1X equivalent trading level across all exposure levels and all accounts traded pursuant to the JEM CRV Program, and includes notionally-funded accounts. The Manager believes that the manner in which the trading level and pro forma performance figures have been calculated is reasonable. However, there are other reasonable calculation methods which would have yielded materially different results. Actual interest earned, fees, and expenses vary by account. Each investor’s performance may be better or worse than the figures shown for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to, the above factors and the timing of their own investment and redemption decisions.

2) Peak to Valley Drawdown = worst % loss between Jan-2021 and Mar-2026
3) Calmar Ratio uses the last 36 months of data.
