Memorandum No.:
AlphaKeys European Real Estate Opportunities Fund II, L.L.C.
Important Information
This Confidential Offering Memorandum and any amendments and supplements thereto (for the avoidance
of doubt, excluding any appendices attached hereto, this "Memorandum") is being furnished to selected
qualified investors on a confidential basis for their consideration in connection with the private offering of
limited liability company interests (the "interests") in AlphaKeys European Real Estate Opportunities Fund II,
L.L.C. (the "AlphaKevs Fund").
Prospective investors should read this Memorandum carefully before
deciding whether to purchase Interests and should pay particular attention to the information set forth in
"Section III. Risk Factors and Other Considerations" and "Section IV. Conflicts of Interest." The AlphaKeys
Fund will invest substantially all of its capital in limited partner interests in Blackstone Real Estate Partners
Europe V L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (the "Underlying Fund"). For a more detailed
description of the Underlying Fund, see the Confidential Private Placement Memorandum of the Underlying
Fund attached hereto as Appendix A (as amended, restated or supplemented from time to time, each as
provided by Blackstone, collectively, the "Underlying Fund Memorandum"). Notwithstanding the foregoing
or anything to the contrary herein, investors in the AlphaKeys Fund will not be limited partners in the
Underlying Fund and an investment in the Interests is not an investment in the Underlying Fund. By its
acceptance hereof, each recipient agrees that this Memorandum may not be reproduced or distributed to
others (except to the recipient's professional advisors) without the prior written consent of the AlphaKeys
Fund, and that the recipient and his or her professional advisors will keep permanently confidential all
information contained in this Memorandum not already in the public domain and will use this
Memorandum for the sole purpose of evaluating a possible investment in the AlphaKeys Fund. No person
has been authorized to make any statement concerning the AlphaKeys Fund or the offering being made by
this Memorandum, other than as set forth herein, and any such statements, if made, may not be relied
upon.
The AlphaKeys Fund is member-managed. UBS Fund Advisor, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company
(the "Administrator") has been appointed as Administrator to the AlphaKeys Fund. Further, under the LLC
Agreement (as defined below), the Members of the AlphaKeys Fund appoint UBS Fund Advisor, L.L.C.
("UBSFA") as Member Designee (as defined in the LLC Agreement). The Administrator is a direct, wholly
owned subsidiary of UBS Americas, which, in turn, is a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of UBS AG (together
with its affiliates, "UBS").
Prospective investors should not construe the contents of this Memorandum as legal, investment, tax or
other advice. Prospective investors should conduct their own investigation and evaluation of the investment
offered hereby. Each prospective investor should consult and rely on his or her own attorneys, business and
tax advisors as to legal, business, tax and related matters concerning this offering and its suitability for such
prospective investor. Each investor will be required to stipulate in his, her or its Investor Application (as
defined below) relating to its investment in the AlphaKeys Fund that he, she, or it has not relied upon the
AlphaKeys Fund, UBS Financial Services Inc., the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund General Partner, the
Underlying Fund Adviser or any of their affiliates, for tax or legal advice and that the investor has relied only
on his, her or its own advisor for tax and legal advice.
My losses by the AlphaKeys Fund will be borne solely by the Members (as defined below) and not by the
Administrator, or its affiliates; therefore, UBSFA's and its affiliates' or subsidiaries' losses in the AlphaKeys
Fund will be limited to losses attributable to the Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund held by UBSFA and its
affiliates or subsidiaries in their capacity as members in the AlphaKeys Fund.
An investment in the AlphaKeys Fund is speculative and involves significant risks and conflicts of interest.

the AlphaKeys Fund and the Underlying Fund are intended for long-term investors who can accept the
significant risks associated with investing in illiquid assets. Accordingly, an investment in the AlphaKeys
Fund should only be considered by persons who can afford a loss of their entire investment and Members
should maintain sufficient liquid assets to meet capital call obligations and manage short-term and long-
term cash needs. No assurance can be given that the investment objectives of the AlphaKeys Fund or the
Underlying Fund will be achieved. Investors should understand the risks associated with an investment in
the AlphaKeys Fund and have the financial ability and willingness to accept such risks for an indefinite
period of time. Tax-exempt investors may recognize a significant amount of unrelated-business taxable
income ("UBTI") as defined in Section 512 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code") as a result of an investment in the AlphaKeys Fund and, accordingly, are strongly urged to consult
their own tax advisors regarding the advisability of an investment in the AlphaKeys Fund. See "Section V.
Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations" below.
The information contained in this Memorandum has been prepared by the AlphaKeys Fund. None of the
Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund General Partner or the Underlying Fund Adviser (each as defined in
the "Introduction" below), or The Blackstone Group L.P. and/or its affiliates ("Blackstone") or their
respective affiliates (i) has participated in the offering of interests of the AlphaKeys Fund or (ii) is responsible
for such offering of interests of the AlphaKeys Fund, the operation of the AlphaKeys Fund or the contents of
this Memorandum, the AlphaKeys Fund's governing documents, the AlphaKeys Fund's Investor Application
(as defined below), related agreements and instruments or any accompanying sales documentation, each as
amended or supplemented.
Purchasers of the interests offered hereby will not be limited partners of the Underlying Fund, will have no
voting rights or direct interest in the Underlying Fund and will have no standing or recourse against the
Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund General Partner, the Underlying Fund Adviser, Blackstone, their
respective affiliates or any of their respective general partners, investment advisers, officers, directors,
employees, partners or members. Purchasers of the interests will not be parties to the operating documents
of the Underlying Fund (as amended, restated or supplemented from time to time, the "Underlying Fund
Operating Document") and, will not have any rights thereunder and may not bring a direct action on their
own behalf against the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund General Partner, the Underlying Fund Adviser,
Blackstone, any of their respective affiliates or any of their respective general partners, investment advisors,
officers, directors, employees, partners or members for any breach thereof. The interests offered hereby are
interests in the AlphaKeys Fund, not the Underlying Fund, and the offering of interests in the AlphaKeys
Fund does not constitute, and should not be considered, a direct or indirect offering of interests in the
Underlying Fund. Although the AlphaKeys Fund is being established to invest in the Underlying Fund, it is
not an affiliate of the Underlying Fund and will be administered solely by the Administrator or its affiliates.
Potential purchasers of interests should note that none of the AlphaKeys Fund, the Administrator, UBS or
any of their respective affiliates have the power to legally bind or commit the Underlying Fund, the
Underlying Fund General Partner, the Underlying Fund Adviser, Blackstone, or their respective affiliates.
All statements in this Memorandum regarding the Underlying Fund and its terms, the Underlying Fund
General Partner or the Underlying Fund Adviser are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Underlying
Fund Memorandum, which is subject to change. The terms of the Underlying Fund may be subject to
continuing negotiation with prospective investors who invest directly in the Underlying Fund and may be
different from those summarized herein or provided in the materials referenced herein. A prospective
investor should not invest unless it is able to sustain the loss of all or a significant portion of its investment.
Offers of interests will be made only pursuant to this Memorandum. Offering literature in any form
whatsoever employed in connection with the offering and sale of interests is subject to, and is superseded
by, this Memorandum and, to the extent applicable with respect to any terms applicable to the Underlying

Fund, the Underlying Fund Operating Document. In the event of any conflict between this Memorandum or
the Underlying Fund Operating Document, on the one hand, and any other offering literature, on the other
hand, this Memorandum (or with respect to any terms applicable to the Underlying Fund, the Underlying
Fund Operating Document) shall control. No person has been authorized to give any information or to
make any representation other than those contained in this Memorandum, and, if given or made, such
information should not be relied upon as having been authorized by the AlphaKeys Fund, the Member
Designee, the Administrator, the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund General Partner, the Underlying
Fund Adviser or any of their respective affiliates.
The information regarding the AlphaKeys Fund and the Underlying Fund contained herein is provided on a
confidential basis and by accepting delivery of this Memorandum and the Underlying Fund Memorandum
attached hereto, the recipient agrees to keep such information confidential and to use it solely for the
purpose of evaluating an investment in the AlphaKeys Fund.
Notwithstanding anything else in this
Memorandum to the contrary, the Members may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any
kind, information regarding the tax treatment, tax structure and tax strategies of the AlphaKeys Fund, the
offering of its interests and its transactions all within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulation § 1.6011-
4(b)(3). For the avoidance of doubt, this authorization is not intended to permit disclosure of the names of,
or other identifying information regarding, the participants in this offering, or of any information or the
portion of any materials not relevant to the tax treatment, tax structure or tax strategies of the offering.
Certain information contained in this Memorandum relating to Blackstone, the Underlying Fund,
the Underlying Fund General Partner, the Underlying Fund Adviser and their affiliates has been
derived by UBS Financial Services Inc. from materials furnished on behalf of the Underlying Fund.
Such information (a) has not been independently verified by the AlphaKeys Fund, the Member
Designee, the Administrator or any of their respective affiliates and (b) does not necessarily
reflect the views or opinions of UBS. Moreover, none of the AlphaKeys Fund, the Member
Designee, the Administrator or any of their respective affiliates has the right to participate in the
control, management or operations of the Underlying Fund, nor has any discretion over the
management of the Underlying Fund. None of the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund General
Partner, the Underlying Fund Adviser or any of their respective affiliates make any representation
or warranty (whether express or implied) regarding, and expressly disclaims any liability or
responsibility for the fairness, correctness, accuracy, reasonableness or completeness of any of the
information set forth herein other than with respect to the Underlying Fund Memorandum. None
of the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund General Partner, the Underlying Fund Adviser or any
of their respective affiliates are responsible for the formation or operation of the AlphaKeys Fund.
None of Blackstone, the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund General Partner, the Underlying
Fund's investment advisor, agents or affiliates nor any of their respective officers, directors,
employees, partners or members are affiliates of the AlphaKeys Fund, the Member Designee or
the Administrator or have endorsed or make any recommendations of the AlphaKeys Fund.
Descriptions of any rights, benefits and effects described in the Underlying Fund Memorandum
will inure to the benefit of, and/or apply to, the AlphaKeys Fund as a whole and not to the
Members in the AlphaKeys Fund.
Actual realized returns on unrealized investments will depend on, among other factors, future
operating results, the value of the assets, and market conditions at the time of disposition, legal
and contractual restrictions, any related transaction costs, and the timing and manner of sale, all
of which may differ from the assumptions and circumstances on which the valuations used in the
prior performance data contained in the Underlying Fund Memorandum are based. Accordingly,
the actual realized returns on these unrealized investments may differ materially from the returns
CONFIDENTIAL
UBSTERRAMAR00001777
EFTA00237408
indicated therein. In considering any performance information contained therein, prospective
investors should bear in mind that past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results,
and there can be no assurance that the Underlying Fund or the AlphaKeys Fund will achieve
comparable results or that the Underlying Fund will be able to implement its investment strategy,
achieve its investment objectives or avoid substantial losses.
This Memorandum and the Underlying Fund Memorandum contain forward-looking statements. Forward-
looking statements are statements that are not historical facts, including statements about beliefs and
expectations. Any statement in this Memorandum or the Underlying Fund Memorandum that contains
intentions, beliefs, expectations or predictions (and the assumptions underlying them) is a forward-looking
statement.
These assumptions are based on plans, estimates, and projections, as they are currently
available. Forward-looking statements therefore speak only as of the date they are made, and none of the
Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund General Partner, Blackstone, the Underlying Fund Adviser, the
AlphaKeys Fund, the Member Designee, the Administrator or any of their respective affiliates undertakes to
update any of them in light of new information or future events. Forward-looking statements involve
inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of important factors could therefore cause actual results of the
AlphaKeys Fund or the Underlying Fund to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking
statement. See "Section III. Risk Factors and Other Considerations" and "Section IV. Conflicts of Interest."
As used in this Memorandum, an "affiliate" of any person or entity will include any person controlling,
controlled by or under common control with such person.
The Underlying Fund Memorandum includes a variety of performance information relating to the
Underlying Fund and other investment vehicles managed by the Underlying Fund General Partner
and/or the Underlying Fund Adviser. Information presented about other funds or selected
investments made by the Underlying Fund General Partner and/or the Underlying Fund Adviser,
while informative regarding the experience of the Underlying Fund General Partner and/or the
Underlying Fund Adviser, are not indicative of, and in some cases may be irrelevant to, an
assessment of the potential performance or investments of the AlphaKeys Fund (in connection
with its investment in the Underlying Fund). While reviewing the performance information set
forth in the Appendix to the Underlying Fund Memorandum, investors should pay particular
attention to the net return information provided in the endnotes to such Appendix.
CHARGED AT THE ALPHAKEYS FUND LEVEL. The returns of the AlphaKeys Fund will be lower, and
may be materially lower than the returns at the Underlying Fund level. Performance shown in the
Underlying Fund Memorandum does not include AlphaKeys Fund-level Fees and Expenses or the
Placement Fee (if charged), as each is defined below. Such fees will reduce returns. Returns for
the AlphaKeys Fund may also differ from the returns of the Underlying Fund as a result of funds
invested in Temporary Investments (as defined below) by the AlphaKeys Fund and delayed
distributions by the AlphaKeys Fund to its investors.
No representation or warranty is being made herein as to the past or future investment performance of the
AlphaKeys Fund or the Underlying Fund. Only those particular representations and warranties that may be
made by the AlphaKeys Fund in a definitive investor application ("Investor Application") relating to the
purchase of Interests, when and if one is executed, and subject to such limitations and restrictions as may be
specified in such Investor Application, will have any legal effect.
Interests are being offered exclusively to investors who meet the qualification standards set forth
in this Memorandum, with a minimum Capital Commitment (as defined below) of $250,000,
CONFIDENTIAL
UBSTERRAMAR00001778

subject to the discretion of the Member Designee to accept lesser amounts or raise the minimum
Capital Commitment, as described herein.
Except where otherwise indicated, the information contained in this Memorandum has been compiled as of
the date set forth in this Memorandum, and information regarding the Underlying Fund is as of the date set
forth in the Underlying Fund Memorandum. None of the AlphaKeys Fund, the Underlying Fund, the
Underlying Fund General Partner, the Underlying Fund Adviser, the Member Designee, the Administrator or
any of their respective affiliates has any obligation to update any portion of this Memorandum. Under no
circumstances should the delivery of this Memorandum, irrespective of when it is made, create any
implication that there has been no change in the affairs of the AlphaKeys Fund, the Underlying Fund, the
Member Designee, the Administrator or any of their respective affiliates since such date.
This Memorandum is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy an Interest, nor will any Interest
be offered or sold, to any person in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, purchase or sale would
be unlawful under the securities laws of such jurisdiction. Accordingly, the Interests may not be offered or
sold, directly or indirectly, and this Memorandum may not be distributed in any jurisdiction, except in
accordance with the legal requirements applicable to such jurisdiction. The AlphaKeys Fund reserves the
right to modify any of the terms of the offering and the Interests described herein. This Memorandum will
remain the property of the AlphaKeys Fund. The AlphaKeys Fund reserves the right to require the return of
this Memorandum at any time from prospective investors who do not purchase Interests in the AlphaKeys
Fund.

I. INTRODUCTION
AlphaKeys European Real Estate Opportunities Fund II, L.L.C. (the "AlphaKeys Fund") a newly
formed Delaware limited liability company, is a private investment fund established by UBS Fund
Advisor, L.L.C., the AlphaKeys Fund's member designee (the "Member Designee") to invest
substantially all of its capital in limited partnership interests in Blackstone Real Estate Partners Europe
V M. (the "Underlying Fund"). Blackstone Real Estate Associates Europe V M. serves as the
Underlying Fund's general partner (the "Underlying Fund General Partner") and Blackstone Real
Estate Advisors M, has been appointed to provide advisory and management services to the
Underlying Fund (the "Underlying Fund Adviser").
The AlphaKeys Fund will invest in the Underlying Fund. There can be no assurance that the
investment objectives of the AlphaKeys Fund or the Underlying Fund will be achieved, that such
funds will be able to implement their respective investment strategies, or avoid substantial losses.
For a more detailed description of Blackstone, the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund General
Partner and the Underlying Fund Adviser, see the Confidential Private Placement Memorandum of
the Underlying Fund, attached hereto as Appendix A (as the same has been amended, restated or
supplemented from time to time, each as provided by Blackstone, collectively, the "Underlying Fund
Memorandum").
None of the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund General Partner, the
Underlying Fund Adviser, Blackstone and their respective affiliates are responsible for the formation
or operation of the AlphaKeys Fund. The offering of interests in the AlphaKeys Fund should not be
considered an offering of interests in the Underlying Fund. None of the Underlying Fund, the
Underlying Fund General Partner, the Underlying Fund Adviser, Blackstone or any of their respective
affiliates, officers, directors, employees, partners or members have endorsed or make any
recommendations of the AlphaKeys Fund. None of the AlphaKeys Fund, the Member Designee, the
Administrator or any of their respective affiliates makes any endorsement or recommendation of the
Underlying Fund and the establishment of the AlphaKeys Fund to invest in the Underlying Fund does
not constitute such endorsement or recommendation.
Each investor admitted to the AlphaKeys Fund (each a "Member") at a closing (a "Closing") will be
required to make an initial payment on or prior to the Initial Closing or upon a Subsequent Closing
or as otherwise determined by the Member Designee equal to a percentage of its capital
commitment to the AlphaKeys Fund (a "Capital Commitment") as specified by the Member
Designee as will enable the AlphaKeys Fund to fund its initial capital contribution and other
obligations with respect to the Underlying Fund and to pay organizational expenses and other fees
and expenses incurred by the AlphaKeys Fund. Thereafter, the Member Designee may make calls for
the remaining portion of the Capital Commitment of each Member and capital calls with respect to
Excess Contributions (as defined below) on not less than five (5) calendar days' prior notice, provided
however, to the extent the Underlying Fund calls for a contribution to the Underlying Fund on less
than five (5) calendar days notice, the AlphaKeys Fund may call capital from its investors on less than
five (5) calendar days notice to satisfy its obligations to the Underlying Fund. Capital Commitments
and calls for Excess Contributions (as defined below) will be denominated in U.S. dollars.
A Member may be required to make capital contributions to the AlphaKeys Fund ("Capital
Contributions") in an amount in excess of its Capital Commitment (a) in the event the
AlphaKeys Fund has to make capital contributions or other payments to the Underlying
Fund in excess of the AlphaKeys Fund's capital commitment to the Underlying Fund, (b) for
any AlphaKeys Fund-level fees and expenses applicable to such Member at the AlphaKeys
Fund level, including, without limitation, the administrative fee paid to UBSFA as described
under "Administrative Fee" below) and other Fund Expenses (as defined under "Other Fees
and Expenses" below) (collectively, the "AlphaKeys Fund-level Fees and Expenses") or (c)
any tax payments made by the AlphaKeys Fund on behalf of such Member (or interest or
penalties associated therewith).
In addition, it is expected that each Member will be
ER305378-MAXWELL
-1-
CONFIDENTIAL
UBSTERRAMAR00001782
EFTA00237413
required to make contributions to the AlphaKeys Fund in excess of its Capital Commitment
to pay the management fee charged by the Underlying Fund as set forth in the Underlying
Fund Memorandum (the "Underlying Fund Management Fee") and certain Underlying Fund
organizational expenses, as set forth in the Underlying Fund Memorandum. The excess
Capital Contributions described above are referred to herein as "Excess Contributions."
The AlphaKeys Fund may invest all Capital Commitments in the Underlying Fund. As a
result, the extent to which a Member will be required to make certain Excess Contributions
will depend on the percentage of aggregate capital commitments called by the Underlying
Fund (for example, if the Underlying Fund calls 100% of commitments, each Member's
share, if any, of applicable AlphaKeys Fund-level Fees and Expenses and the Underlying
Fund Management Fee and Underlying Fund organizational expenses would be in addition
to such Member's Capital Commitment). In addition, a Member may also be required to
pay a Placement Fee (as defined below), as discussed in further detail below.
Pending investment in the Underlying Fund or as the Member Designee otherwise determines is
necessary or prudent in its sole discretion, including for payment of fees and expenses (as described
herein), the AlphaKeys Fund may invest in Temporary Investments (as defined below).
Investor Applications
The offering made hereby of limited liability company interests (the " nterests") in the AlphaKeys
Fund is made only to the person to whom this Memorandum has been delivered provided such
person is a UBS client and an Eligible Purchaser (as defined below). Each Member ordinarily will be
required to make a Capital Commitment of not less than $250,000 to the AlphaKeys Fund, subject
to the discretion of the AlphaKeys Fund to accept Capital Commitments of a lesser amount or raise
the minimum Capital Commitment. The AlphaKeys Fund may vary the investment minimums from
time to time. The AlphaKeys Fund reserves the right to accept or reject any investor application
("investor Molicatiork") for Interests or the application of any Member wishing to increase its
existing Capital Commitment. Charitable remainder trusts will not be admitted to the AlphaKeys
Fund and generally, the AlphaKeys Fund will not accept Capital Commitments from any Individual
Retirement Accounts.
An "Eligible Purchaser" must be: (i) a qualified purchaser under the
Investment Company Act (as defined below), (ii) an accredited investor under the Securities Act (as
defined below), and (iii) a U.S. Person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (as
described below), unless otherwise permitted by law.
Members will be charged by the Placement Agent (as defined below) a Placement Fee (as defined
below) of two percent (2%) of the Members' respective Capital Commitments, subject to waiver by
the Placement Agent in limited circumstances. The Placement Agent may reallocate all or a portion
of such Placement Fee to a Member's financial advisor or other securities dealers participating in the
placement of Interests. The Placement Fee will be in addition to any Capital Contributions a
Member is required to make to the AlphaKeys Fund and will not reduce its Capital Commitment,
including for the purposes of determining such Member's Sharing Percentage (as defined below).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Member who is a client of UBS
Financial Services Inc. ("UBSFS") and invests in the AlphaKeys Fund through an Advisory Program (as
defined below) will be issued Advisory Class limited liability company interests and will not be
charged a Placement Fee or an Administrative Fee (as defined below).
Each Member (including permitted transferees) will be obligated to agree to be bound by all
of the terms of the LLC Agreement.
Each potential investor also will be obligated to
represent and warrant in the Investor Application, among other things, that such investor is
purchasing an Interest for its own account, and not with a view to the distribution,
assignment, transfer or other disposition of such Interest.

Interests
AlphaKeys European Real Estate Opportunities Fund II, L.L.C., a Delaware limited
liability company (the "AlphaKeys Fund") a newly created entity.
The AlphaKeys Fund has been organized to invest substantially all of its capital in
limited partner interests in Blackstone Real Estate Partners Europe V M, a

more detailed description of the Underlying Fund, see the Underlying Fund
Memorandum. The Underlying Fund may offer multiple classes of interests. The

its interest in the Underlying Fund through a separate alternative investment
vehicle, parallel fund or feeder fund that would have substantially similar terms
as the Underlying Fund, as further described in the Underlying Fund
Memorandum attached hereto as Appendix A.
The AlphaKeys Fund will invest in the Underlying Fund. As more fully described
in the Underlying Fund Memorandum, the principal investment objective of the
Underlying Fund is to make control-oriented "opportunistic" real estate
investments, primarily in Europe, by investing in equity, debt or other interests in,
or relating to, real estate assets of any type or real estate companies and real-
estate related companies.
There can be no assurance that the investment
objectives of the AlphaKeys Fund or the Underlying Fund will be achieved, that
such funds will be able to implement their respective investment strategies or
avoid substantial losses.
The Underlying Fund Memorandum should be read carefully by all prospective
investors.
The AlphaKeys Fund currently offers two classes of limited liability company
interests; the Brokerage Class and the Advisory Class. Members that invest
through the UBS "Institutional Consulting Program" or another UBS investment
advisory program that is approved for investment into the AlphaKeys Fund by
UBSFA (an "Advisory Program"), and pursuant to which UBS or its affiliates will
receive a fee directly from such investor for the investment in the AlphaKeys
Fund, will be Members of the Advisory Class.
All other Members will be
admitted into the Brokerage Class. Unless otherwise specified herein, references
to "Members" shall indude Members of both the Brokerage Class and the

additional dasses of interests that may differ in terms of, among other things,
the timing and amount of fees charged, distribution rights and other terms. In
particular, the AlphaKeys Fund may establish an additional class of preferred
equity interests (which may be held by the Member Designee (as defined below)
or an affiliate thereof) that may differ in terms of, among other things, a priority
with respect to distributions and in dissolution, the right to a preferred return,
the right to receive certain cash proceeds, different voting rights, the timing and
amount of fees charged and withdrawal rights.

Designee
L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, to act as "Member Designee" (in

their rights, powers, duties and obligations to manage and control the business
and affairs of the AlphaKeys Fund to the Member Designee; provided, that the
investors have not delegated (i) their rights to vote on amendments to the LLC
Agreement, to the extent applicable, (ii) their right under the LLC Agreement to

such capacity, the "Administrator") pursuant to an administrative services
agreement with the AlphaKeys Fund (the "Administrative Services Agreement").
One or more affiliates of the Administrator and the Placement Agent (as defined
below) and third parties will be engaged to provide certain services to the
AlphaKeys Fund at the expense of the AlphaKeys Fund. The Administrator and
its affiliates provide certain administrative and investment advisory services to
registered and unregistered investment funds and individual accounts.
The
Administrator or an affiliate may hold a nominal Interest in, and may be an
investor of, the AlphaKeys Fund.

located at 1285 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10019, and its
telephone number is (800) 486-2608.
The Administrator may, directly or indirectly, assign all or any part of its rights
and duties under the Administrative Services Agreement to any individual or
entity, with the prior approval of the AlphaKeys Fund. In the event of an
assignment of the Administrative Services Agreement, the Member Designee of
the AlphaKeys Fund is authorized to grant consent on behalf of the AlphaKeys
Fund. The Member Designee will provide written notice to the Members in the
event that it grants consent to an assignment. Because the Member Designee
and the Administrator are currently the same entity, it is unlikely that the
Member Designee will withhold consent to an assignment proposed by the

Administrator.
In addition, the Administrator may resign as Member Designee of the AlphaKeys
Fund and cause another individual or entity to be appointed as the replacement
member designee of the AlphaKeys Fund with (i) the prior consent of the
AlphaKeys Fund, or (ii) prior notice to the AlphaKeys Fund and, to the extent
consistent with applicable law, without the prior consent of the AlphaKeys Fund.
The Administrator may be removed as the Member Designee of the AlphaKeys
Fund and/or the Administrative Services Agreement may be terminated upon the
vote of at least a majority-in-interest of Members who are not affiliates of the
Administrator ("Unaffiliated Members") at a meeting of the Members called for
such purpose as further described in the LLC Agreement; provided, however,
that the Members must first arrange to delegate such rights and powers to
manage the AlphaKeys Fund to a Qualified Replacement (as defined in the LLC
Agreement) approved by the Administrator. A substitute member designee
and/or administrator may be appointed upon the vote of at least a majority-in-
interest of the Unaffiliated Members.
In certain circumstances, the LLC
Agreement permits the Administrator to reduce a Member's voting or approval
rights.
Administrative
Pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement, the Administrator will receive
Fee
an annual fee (the "Administrative Fee") commencing on the initial closing date
of the AlphaKeys Fund (the "Initial Closing Date") with respect to each Member
equal to (a) 1.00% of such Member's Capital Commitment if such Member's
Capital Commitment is less than $3 million, (b) 0.75% of such Member's Capital
Commitment if such Member's Capital Commitment is $3 million or more but
less than $10 million, or (c) 0.50% of such Member's Capital Commitment if
such Member's Capital Commitment is $10 million or more, calculated as if each
Member were admitted to the AlphaKeys Fund as of the Initial Closing Date.
After the expiration of the Underlying Fund Investment Period (as defined below)
(the "investment Period Expiration Date") the Administrative Fee payable by the
AlphaKeys Fund will be computed based on the percentages described above
attributable to each Member's Capital Commitment, but with such percentage
applied to each Member's Capital Contributions used to fund investments by the
AlphaKeys Fund that have not been sold or otherwise disposed of (directly or
indirectly through the Underlying Fund) and the proceeds thereof that have not
been returned by the Underlying Fund to the AlphaKeys Fund. For purposes of
calculating the Administrative Fee after the Investment Period Expiration Date,
each Member may be deemed to have made Capital Contributions in respect of
binding commitments to make investments.
The Administrative Fee is not paid to the Administrator by those Members of the
Advisory Class, from whom UBSFS or its affiliates will receive a fee directly. If, at
any time, a Member terminates its participation in an Advisory Program and
therefore, UBSFS or its affiliates no longer receive a fee from such Member in
respect of such Member's ownership of Interests (as defined below) in the
AlphaKeys Fund, then the AlphaKeys Fund may convert that Member's Interests
in the Advisory Class into Brokerage Class Interests and the Administrative Fee
payable in respect of such Member may, as of the date of the termination of
such Advisory Program, be calculated as described above for Members of the
Brokerage Class.
For purposes of calculating the Administrative Fee, any amount contributed by a
ER305378-MAXWELL

CONFIDENTIAL
UBSTERRAMAR00001786
EFTA00237417
Member in excess of its Capital Commitment will not be included in such
Member's Capital Commitment or the calculation of such Member's Capital
Contributions.
The Administrative Fee will be in addition to the fees and expenses charged by
the Underlying Fund (including without limitation the Underlying Fund
Management Fee and the Underlying Fund Carried Interest Distribution (each as
defined below)).
The Administrator may, in its sole and absolute discretion, defer or waive all or
any portion of the Administrative Fee with respect to a Member, including
employees, officers and directors of the Administrator and its affiliates. The
Administrator may also vary the terms of the Administrative Fee with respect to a
particular class of Interests, in the Administrator's sole discretion.
The
Administrative Fee will not apply to any Capital Commitments made by the
Administrator or its affiliates.
The Administrative Fee is in addition to and
separate from the amounts payable by the AlphaKeys Fund to other third parties
engaged on behalf of the AlphaKeys Fund.
The Administrator will be responsible for the payment of its own ordinary
operating expenses relating to its duties under the Administrative Services
Agreement, including salaries of its employees, occupancy costs and other
general overhead, but not including the fees and expenses of any consultants
that the Administrator may hire on behalf of the AlphaKeys Fund.
The
AlphaKeys Fund will reimburse the Administrator or its affiliates for any expenses
incurred by the Administrator or its affiliates in connection with the
Administrator's services under the Administrative Services Agreement.
Placement Fee
A Member will be charged a placement fee by UBS Financial Services Inc., an
affiliate of the Administrator (the "Placement Agent") of two percent (2%) in
the aggregate of such Member's Capital Commitment (the "Placement Fee")
subject to waiver by the Placement Agent in limited circumstances.
The
Placement Agent may reallocate all or a portion of the Placement Fee to a
Member's financial advisor or other securities dealers participating in the
placement of Interests. The Placement Fee will be in addition to any Capital
Contributions such Member is required to make to the AlphaKeys Fund and will
not reduce such Member's Capital Commitment, induding for purposes of
determining such Member's Sharing Percentage (as defined below).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, an Advisory Class
Member will not be charged a Placement Fee.
The Administrator and the Placement Agent intend to compensate the Placement
Agent's financial advisors, as well as others, for their ongoing servicing of clients
with whom they have placed Interests. Such compensation will be payable out
of the Administrative Fee.
Organizational
The AlphaKeys Fund will bear all legal and other costs and expenses incurred in

addition to the Administrative Fee), and Temporary Investments (as defined
below); interest and other expenses related to any AlphaKeys Fund borrowings,
costs of compliance with any applicable federal or state laws; taxes; tax

investor servicing and accounting expenses; fees and expenses related to
maintenance of books and records (including investment reporting), insurance or
mailings; printing costs; marketing expenses; extraordinary expenses (such as
litigation and indemnification of the Member Designee, the Administrator and
their affiliates); costs and expenses of any feeder vehicle organized to invest in
the AlphaKeys Fund, including any organizational expenses thereof; any other
out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Member Designee, the
Administrator and any service providers; any amounts necessary to fund a
Defaulting Member's Defaulted Amount (each as defined below) (including the
amount of any borrowing) and any costs associated with the foregoing in the
event the AlphaKeys Fund is unable to recover such amounts from the Defaulting
Member (see "—Default" below)) (all of the foregoing together, the "Fund
Expenses").
In addition to the foregoing Fund Expenses, Members will bear, directly or
indirectly, the cost of the AlphaKeys Fund's pro rata share of the fees and
expenses of the Underlying Fund as described below in "Underlying Fund
Management Fee; Other Fees."
As described in detail in the Underlying Fund Memorandum, during the
Underlying Fund Investment Period (as defined below), the Underlying Fund
Adviser will be entitled to receive a management fee (the "Underlying Fund
Management Fee"), payable quarterly, at an annual rate of (i) until the end of
the Underlying Fund Investment Period, 1.5% of the AlphaKeys Fund's capital
commitment and (ii) thereafter (or upon the occurrence of certain other
triggering events, whichever occurs first), 1.5% of the AlphaKeys Fund's capital
contributions with respect to portfolio investments that have not been disposed
of as of the first day of the relevant quarter or during the preceding quarter.
In addition to the Underlying Fund Management Fee, each Member of the
AlphaKeys Fund will be required to pay their pro rata portion of other fees and
expenses charged at the Underlying Fund-level as further described in the
Underlying Fund Memorandum (collectively, the "Underlying Fund-level Fees and
Expenses").
As described in detail in the Underlying Fund Memorandum, the Underlying Fund
General Partner is entitled to receive "carried interest" distributions equal to
20% of the Underlying Fund's net profits, subject to an eight percent (8)%
preferred return with a full catch up provision for the Underlying Fund General
Partner (the "Underlying Fund Carried Interest Distribution"). The actual amount
of any such carried interest payment is based in part upon the Underlying Fund's
achievement of certain returns.
This is a long-term investment and Members have no right to withdraw from the
AlphaKeys Fund prior to its dissolution. Both the AlphaKeys Fund and the

Underlying Fund are intended for investors who can accept the significant risks
associated with investing in illiquid assets. Accordingly, an investment in the
AlphaKeys Fund should only be considered by persons who can afford a loss of
their entire investment and Members should maintain sufficient liquid assets to
meet capital call obligations and manage short-term and long-term cash needs.
The term of the AlphaKeys Fund is expected to end as soon as practicable after
the termination of the Underlying Fund. In the event that the Member Designee
determines for any reason, in its sole and absolute discretion, not to invest in the
Underlying Fund, including, without limitation, due to an insufficient amount of
Capital Commitments, the Member Designee may cause the AlphaKeys Fund to
be wound up as soon as is reasonably practicable.
Underlying
The investment period for which the Underlying Fund may generally call capital
Fund
to fund new investments (the "Underlying Fund Investment Period") will expire
Investment
upon the earlier of five and a half (5.5) years from the effective date of the
Period
Underlying Fund or upon the occurrence of certain other events described in
further detail in the Underlying Fund Memorandum. In addition, the Underlying
Fund may call capital after the expiration or termination of the Underlying Fund
Investment Period for certain investments and fees and expenses of the
Underlying Fund, all as described in detail in the Underlying Fund Memorandum.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Member Designee may make capital calls
throughout the term of the AlphaKeys Fund.
Eligible
Interests are being offered exclusively to persons that are UBS clients and
Purchasers
"Eligible Purchasers," as defined below. The AlphaKeys Fund reserves the right
to accept or reject the application of any investor wishing to make a Capital
Commitment.
In order to be considered an "Eligible Purchaser " an investor must be: (i) a
qualified purchaser (a "Qualified Purchaser") under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), (ii) an accredited investor
(an "Accredited Investor") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), and (iii) a U.S. Person (a "U.S. Person") within the meaning of
Section 7701(a)(3O) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code") unless otherwise permitted by law. As a result, an investment in the
AlphaKeys Fund will generally be limited to individuals owning at least $5 million
in investment securities ($25 million in the case of institutions).
For more
descriptive definitions of Qualified Purchaser, Accredited Investor, and U.S.
Person, see "Section VI. Regulatory Considerations" and "Section V. Certain
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations". Charitable remainder trusts
will not be admitted to the AlphaKeys Fund and generally, the AlphaKeys Fund
will not accept Capital Commitments from any Individual Retirement Accounts
("IRAs"). Potential investors seeking to invest through an IRA should speak to
their financial advisor.
Capital
The minimum capital commitment to be made to the AlphaKeys Fund (a "Capital
Commitments
Commitment") by any investor is $250,000, subject to the discretion of the
AlphaKeys Fund to accept a Capital Commitment of a lesser amount or impose a
higher minimum Capital Commitment.
In addition to the Capital Commitment set forth in each Member's investor
application, each Member will be required to make additional Capital
Contributions as described in "Capital Calls" below.
Subscriptions
The initial closing of the sale of Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund will occur on

UBSTERRAMAR00001789
EFTA00237420
and Closings
such date as the Member Designee may determine (the "Initial Closing").
The Member Designee may from time to time after the Initial Closing elect to
hold one or more additional dosings (each a "Subsequent Closing" and together
with the Initial Closing, "Closings")
as necessary, to accommodate the
admission of additional Members.
Subsequent
Each Member that is admitted to the AlphaKeys Fund or increases its Capital
Closings
Commitment in a Subsequent Closing (each, a "Subseauent Member") will
generally participate in all investments previously made by the AlphaKeys Fund,
other than Temporary Investments, and will bear its proportionate share of the
AlphaKeys Fund-level Fees and Expenses and the Underlying Fund-level Fees and
Expenses, other than those related to such Temporary Investments, as though
such Subsequent Member had been admitted at the Initial Closing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that, as a result of the admission of
a Subsequent Member to the AlphaKeys Fund, (i) the AlphaKeys Fund increases
its capital commitment to the Underlying Fund and (ii) the Underlying Fund
precludes the AlphaKeys Fund from increasing its participation in the Underlying
Fund's existing investments as a result of such increased capital commitment, the
Member Designee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, cause such
Subsequent Member not to participate in the portion of the AlphaKeys Fund's
capital commitment to the Underlying Fund that relates to the Underlying Fund's
existing investments.
In connection with its admission or increase in its Capital Commitment, a
Subsequent Member will make a Capital Contribution to the AlphaKeys Fund as
described under "Capital Calls" below.
To the extent that, as a result of the admission of a Subsequent Member to the
AlphaKeys Fund, the AlphaKeys Fund increases its commitment to the Underlying
Fund and the AlphaKeys Fund incurs costs associated with such increased
commitment to the Underlying Fund, including any interest payable to the
Underlying Fund or their investors, each Member will bear its share of such
additional costs irrespective of whether such Member was admitted to the
AlphaKeys Fund at a Closing prior to the Subsequent Closing at which such
Subsequent Member was admitted to the AlphaKeys Fund; provided that, the
Member Designee may, in its sole discretion, determine to specifically allocate
any such costs to the Member in respect of which such costs were incurred in
which event the Member Designee also may elect to allocate any interest
received from the Underlying Fund relating to such Subsequent Members to the
Members that made contributions for such investments. Such additional costs
will be in addition to the AlphaKeys Fund's capital commitment to the
Underlying Fund and therefore each Member may be required to make Excess
Contributions (as defined below) in respect of such amounts. Furthermore, to
the extent the Underlying Fund admits additional limited partners after the
admission of the AlphaKeys Fund to the Underlying Fund, the admission of such
subsequent limited partners may have an impact on the AlphaKeys Fund, for
example, by diluting the interests held by the AlphaKeys Fund.
The Member Designee will adjust each existing Member's Capital Account (as
defined below) with such items as necessary to reflect the arrangement set forth
in the preceding paragraph with respect to Subsequent Closings.
Capital Calls
Each investor admitted to the AlphaKeys Fund (each, a "Member") will be
required to fund its Capital Commitment (as defined above) relating to such
ER305378-MAXWELL
-9-
CONFIDENTIAL
UBSTERRAMAR00001790
EFTA00237421
Member's limited liability company interest in the AlphaKeys Fund (each, an
"Interest") through the Initial Payment (as defined below) and upon subsequent
capital calls, as described herein.
The AlphaKeys Fund may from time to time hold some of its assets in cash (not
earning interest) or invest in money market securities, cash equivalents, short-to-
medium term federal tax-exempt debt obligations and similar securities of
governmental and private issuers, including funds that normally invest primarily
in such securities ("Temporary Investments") (i) pending investment in the
Underlying Fund or as the Member Designee determines is necessary or prudent,
in its sole discretion; and/or (ii) pursuant to the retention of appropriate reserves
(as determined in the sole discretion of the Member Designee) for the payment
of AlphaKeys Fund-level Fees and Expenses.
Subject to the foregoing,
substantially all of the AlphaKeys Fund's assets are expected to be invested in the
Underlying Fund. As a result of the AlphaKeys Fund-level Fees and Expenses
(including the Administrative Fee) and the need to reserve amounts to pay
AlphaKeys Fund obligations, the amount of each Member's indirect investment
in the Underlying Fund will be less than it would have been had such Member
invested directly in the Underlying Fund. Income from Temporary Investments is
subject to reinvestment.
Capital Contributions may also be held in an escrow or similar account pending
the Initial Closing or Subsequent Closings at the discretion of the Member
Designee. It is possible that such an escrow account would not earn interest.
The Member Designee may make calls for capital contributions to the AlphaKeys
Fund ("Capital Contributions") on not less than five (5) calendar days' prior
notice; provided however, to the extent the Underlying Fund calls for a
contribution to the Underlying Fund on less than five (5) calendar days notice,
the AlphaKeys Fund may call capital from its investors on less than five (5)
calendar days notice to satisfy its obligations to the Underlying Fund. Each
Member will be required to make an initial payment (the "Initial Payment") on or
prior to the Initial Closing or upon a Subsequent Closing or as otherwise
determined by the Member Designee equal to a percentage of its Capital
Commitment as specified by the Member Designee.
A Member may be required to make Capital Contributions to the
AlphaKeys Fund in an amount in excess of its Capital Commitment (a) in
the event the AlphaKeys Fund has to make capital contributions or other
payments to the Underlying Fund in excess of the AlphaKeys Fund's
capital commitment to the Underlying Fund, (b) for any AlphaKeys Fund-
level Fees and Expenses or (c) any tax payments made by the AlphaKeys
Fund on behalf of such Member (or interest or penalties associated
therewith). In addition, it is expected that each Member will be required
to make contributions to the AlphaKeys Fund in excess of its Capital
Commitment to pay the Underlying Fund Management Fee and certain
Underlying Fund organizational expenses, as set forth in the Underlying
Fund Memorandum. The excess Capital Contributions described above
are referred to herein as "Excess Contributions". The AlphaKeys Fund
may invest all Capital Commitments in the Underlying Fund. As a result,
the extent to which a Member will be required to make certain Excess
Contributions will depend on the percentage of aggregate capital
commitments called by the Underlying Fund (for example, if the
Underlying Fund calls 100% of commitments, each Member's share, if
ER305378-MAXWELL
-io-
CONFIDENTIAL
UBSTERRAMAR00001791
EFTA00237422
any, of applicable AlphaKeys Fund-level Fees and Expenses and the
Underlying Fund Management Fee and Underlying Fund organizational
expenses would be in addition to such Member's Capital Commitment).
In addition, a Member may also be required to pay a Placement Fee.
Members should maintain sufficient liquid assets to meet capital call
obligations. Failure of a Member to satisfy capital call obligations in a
timely manner may result in significant adverse consequences, including
forfeiture and/or sale of such Member's Interest. See "—Default" below.
None of the Member Designee, the Administrator or any of their affiliates has
control over when or in what amount the Underlying Fund may call capital from
the AlphaKeys Fund.
As a result of Underlying Fund-level Fees and Expenses, AlphaKeys Fund-level
Fees and Expenses and the Placement Fee (if charged), the aggregate amount of
each Member's indirect investment in the Underlying Fund may be less than the
amount of its Capital Contributions.
Capital
The AlphaKeys Fund will establish and maintain a capital account for each
Accounts
Member that will reflect such Member's investment in the AlphaKeys Fund (a
"Capital Account").
Reinvestment
During the term of the AlphaKeys Fund, prior distributions of proceeds may be
subject to recall and reinvestment by the Administrator in its sole and absolute
discretion.
Any cash that may otherwise be currently distributable to the Members may be
reserved by the Administrator, in its sole and absolute discretion, for the payment
of Fund Expenses, the Administrative Fee or projected expenses, or for
reinvestment.
Distributions
All proceeds received by the AlphaKeys Fund generally will be distributed to the
Members in accordance with each Member's Sharing Percentage. The amounts
received by the AlphaKeys Fund will be net of fees, expenses and reserves. For
purposes hereof, a "Sharing Percentage" will mean, with respect to any Member
and as of any date, a fraction, expressed as a percentage, (i) the numerator of
which is the Capital Commitment of such Member and (ii) the denominator of
which is the aggregate amount of Capital Commitments of all Members, in each
case as of such date and taking into account any adjustments specified in the
LLC Agreement.
Proceeds generally will be distributed at such times as the Member Designee will
determine in its sole and absolute discretion, provided that the AlphaKeys Fund
may reduce such distributions by the amount of Fund Expenses and by any
amounts applied as a reserve or in anticipation of future funding in the sole and
absolute discretion of the Member Designee.
It is anticipated that the
Administrator may maintain a reserve of AlphaKeys Fund assets in Temporary
Investments. Distributions by the AlphaKeys Fund generally will be made in cash;
provided, however, that there is no limitation on the ability of the AlphaKeys
Fund to distribute securities (whether marketable or non-marketable) in-kind
during the term of the AlphaKeys Fund or upon the winding-up of the AlphaKeys
Fund.
Items of income, gain, loss and deduction of the AlphaKeys Fund will
generally be allocated among the Members in a manner consistent with
the foregoing distribution provisions and the requirements of the Code
Reserves

and the regulations of the U.S. Treasury Department promulgated
thereunder.
Return of
The AlphaKeys Fund may require the Members (including any former Members)
Distributions
to return distributions pro rata based on distributions received by each Member
from the AlphaKeys Fund relative to distributions received by all Members from
the AlphaKeys Fund (a) in order to satisfy the debts, liabilities and obligations of
the AlphaKeys Fund (including, without limitation, indemnification obligations
and the Administrative Fee), whether such debts, liabilities and obligations arise
before or after the last day of the term of the AlphaKeys Fund or, with respect to
a Member, before or after such Member's withdrawal from the AlphaKeys Fund,
or (b) if the Underlying Fund requires the AlphaKeys Fund to return any amounts
previously distributed to the AlphaKeys Fund that the AlphaKeys Fund has, in
turn, distributed to the Members (including any former members).
Transfers and
A Member generally may not sell, transfer or pledge its Interest without the
withdrawals
consent of the Member Designee, which consent may be withheld in the
Member Designee's sole and absolute discretion, including if the Member
Designee determines that such sale, transfer or pledge may cause the AlphaKeys
Fund to become a publicly traded partnership under Section 7704 the Code.
Generally, a Member will not be permitted to sell, transfer or pledge its
Interest. A Member generally may not withdraw from the AlphaKeys Fund.
However, certain voluntary transfers may be approved in limited circumstances in
the Member Designee's sole discretion and subject to the AlphaKeys Fund's
compliance with certain tax obligations. In addition, in the event of a Default by
any Member or a default with respect to a Member's obligation to indemnify the
AlphaKeys Fund for certain taxes paid on its behalf by the AlphaKeys Fund as
described in the LLC Agreement, such Defaulting Member (as defined below)
may, at the discretion of the AlphaKeys Fund, be subject to certain actions and
penalties, including having its Interest sold or transferred to any other person or
persons. See "—Default" below.
In the event that one or more Members, due to tax, regulatory or other reasons
cannot efficiently acquire or maintain an Interest, as an accommodation to such
Members or if determined by the Member Designee to be in the interest of some
or all of the Members, the Member Designee may establish one or more
investment vehicles through which such Members may invest on a side by side
basis with the AlphaKeys Fund (any such vehicle, an "Parallel Fund"). Any Parallel
Fund will be structured in a manner so that the interests held by such investor,
inclusive of rights and obligations, substantially approximates in all material
respects, an Interest in the AlphaKeys Fund. If the Member Designee determines
that for legal, tax, accounting, regulatory or other reasons it is in the interest of
some or all of the Members that the investment in the Underlying Fund be made
through one or more Parallel Funds, the Member Designee shall be permitted,
without the consent of any Member, to permit or require, in certain
circumstances, one or more Members to (i) withdraw from the AlphaKeys Fund
and to acquire a substantially equivalent interest in a then-existing Parallel Fund
or new Parallel Fund and/or (ii) otherwise convert and/or exchange all or a
portion of a Member's Interest into or for an interest in a Parallel Fund. A
conversion and/or exchange of all or a portion of a Member's Interest into or for
an interest in a Parallel Fund (i) shall include a cancellation of all or an applicable
portion of such Member's Interest and (ii) may include a redemption in-kind of
such Member's Interest and a contribution to the Parallel Fund of a portion of
the assets of the AlphaKeys Fund that the Member Designee determines is

Members will be required to make capital contributions directly to each such
Parallel Fund to the same extent, for the same purposes and on the same terms
and conditions as Members would otherwise be required to make Capital
Contributions to the AlphaKeys Fund.
If the Member Designee determines that for legal, tax, accounting, regulatory or
other reasons it is in the interest of some or all of the Members that all or a
portion of the AlphaKeys Fund's investment in the Underlying Fund be made
through an alternative investment structure or vehicle (any such structure or
vehicle, an "Alternative Vehicle") the Member Designee shall be permitted to
structure the making of all or any portion of such investment in the Underlying
Fund outside of the AlphaKeys Fund, by requiring any Member (i) to make all or
a portion of its indirect investment in the Underlying Fund through a partnership
or other vehicle or vehides (other than the AlphaKeys Fund) that is expected to
invest on a parallel basis, subject to applicable legal, tax, accounting, regulatory
or other considerations, with or in lieu of the AlphaKeys Fund, as the case may
be or (ii) to contribute its Interest in the AlphaKeys Fund to an Alternative Vehicle
in exchange for an interest in such Alternative Vehicle. The Members will be
required to make capital contributions directly to each such Alternative Vehide to
the same extent, for the same purposes and on the same terms and conditions as
Members would otherwise be required to make Capital Contributions to the
AlphaKeys Fund.
If the Member Designee determines that for legal, tax, accounting, regulatory or
other reasons it is in the interest of some or all of the Members that the
AlphaKeys Fund be re-structured as a Cayman Islands exempted limited
partnership or other entity formed under the laws of the Cayman Islands (any
such entity, a "Cayman Vehicle") the Member Designee may take and/or cause
the Members to take all actions necessary and desirable to implement any such
re-structuring at the cost of the AlphaKeys Fund. The Members may be required
to make capital contributions directly to each such Cayman Vehicle to the same
extent, for the same purposes and on the same terms and conditions as
Members would otherwise be required to make Capital Contributions to the
AlphaKeys Fund.
Borrowing
The AlphaKeys Fund may borrow money to cover any shortfall in the AlphaKeys
Fund's ability to make a capital contribution, to satisfy tax liabilities or for any
other purpose the Member Designee reasonably determines to be necessary or
appropriate. Borrowings may be secured by assignment of the obligations of the
Members to make Capital Contributions. Members will be required to cooperate
with the Member Designee in securing the borrowing and to provide the banks
with financial information and other documentation reasonably and customarily
required to obtain such facilities.
Risk Factors
An investment in the AlphaKeys Fund involves significant risks, certain of which
are described in more detail in the risk factors and conflicts of interest sections in
the Underlying Fund Memorandum.
Each prospective investor in the
AlphaKeys Fund should carefully consider and evaluate such risks prior to
purchasing an Interest.
The amount actually invested by the Underlying Fund is subject to the ability of
the Underlying Fund to identify and fund investments.
There can be no
assurance as to the amount and timing of the Underlying Fund's investments,
nor the associated schedule on which the AlphaKeys Fund will be required to

invest in the Underlying Fund.
See "Section III.
Risk Factors and Other
Considerations" below.
The Underlying Fund Memorandum, as provided by Blackstone to the AlphaKeys
Fund, sets forth the terms of the Underlying Fund is attached hereto as Appendix
A, and should be read carefully by all prospective investors. The terms of the
Underlying Fund, including the terms described herein, are subject to change. In
the event of any such change to the terms of the Underlying Fund, the
AlphaKeys Fund, as an investor in the Underlying Fund, will be subject to such
changed terms.
The Underlying Fund Memorandum includes a variety of performance
information relating to the Underlying Fund and other investment
vehicles managed by the Underlying Fund General Partner and/or the
Underlying Fund Adviser. Information presented about other funds or
selected investments made by the Underlying Fund General Partner
and/or the Underlying Fund Adviser, while informative regarding the
experience of the Underlying Fund General Partner and/or the
Underlying Fund Adviser, are not indicative of, and in some cases may be
irrelevant to, an assessment of the potential performance or investments
of the AlphaKeys Fund (in connection with its investment in the
Underlying Fund). While reviewing the performance information set
forth in the Appendix to the Underlying Fund Memorandum, investors
should pay particular attention to the net return information provided in
the endnotes to such Appendix. Performance shown in the Underlying
Fund Memorandum is not that of the AlphaKeys Fund and is not net of
AlphaKeys Fund-level Fees and Expenses or the Placement Fee (if
charged). The returns of the AlphaKeys Fund will be lower, and may be
materially lower, than the returns at the Underlying Fund level. Returns
for the AlphaKeys Fund may also differ from the returns of the
Underlying Fund as a result of, among other things, funds invested in
Temporary Investments by the AlphaKeys Fund and delayed distributions
by the AlphaKeys Fund to its investors.
Purchasers of Interests will not be limited partners of the Underlying Fund, will
have no voting rights or direct interest in the Underlying fund and will have no
standing or recourse against the Underlying Fund, the Underlying Fund General
Partner, the Underlying Fund Adviser or their respective affiliates. The offering of
Interests in the AlphaKeys Fund should not be considered an offering of interests
in the Underlying Fund. Moreover, none of the AlphaKeys Fund, the Member
Designee, the Administrator or any of their respective affiliates has the right to
participate in the control, management or operations of the Underlying Fund,
and none of the foregoing has any discretion over the management of the
Underlying fund.
An investment in the AlphaKeys Fund is a speculative investment that entails
significant risks. No representation or warranty is made that the AlphaKeys Fund
or the Underlying Fund will achieve its investment objectives, implement its
investment strategy or avoid substantial losses. Each Member must have the
ability to bear the risk of loss of its entire investment. See "Section lit Risk
Factors and Other Considerations" below.

An investment in the AlphaKeys Fund involves potential conflicts of interest,

including that the Placement Agent may charge a Member a Placement Fee. In
addition, certain affiliates of the Member Designee or the Administrator may
receive investment banking fees from the Underlying Fund's portfolio companies
and affiliates thereof and in respect of other transactions in which the Underlying
Fund is involved. Moreover, in the regular course of business, certain affiliates of
the Member Designee or the Administrator may be engaged to act as a financial
advisor to a party or parties competing for the same or similar investments as the
Underlying Fund. Furthermore, certain affiliates of the Member Designee or the
Administrator may act as a lender to the AlphaKeys Fund, the Underlying Fund or
its portfolio companies and, in such capacity, may have a liquidation preference
over the Underlying Fund or may have interests that are divergent from the
Underlying Fund. See "Section IV. Conflicts of Interest" and "— Other Fees and
Expenses" and "— Placement Fee" above. Each prospective investor in the
AlphaKeys Fund should carefully consider and evaluate such potential
conflicts of interest prior to purchasing an Interest.
Additionally, each prospective investor should carefully consider and
evaluate such potential conflicts of interest as are described in the
disclosure relating to risk factors and conflicts of interest in the
Underlying Fund Memorandum (and in particular, should pay careful
attention to the description of potential fees charged by the Underlying
Fund under "Risk Factors and Potential Conflicts of Interest — Fees for
Services" in the Underlying Fund Memorandum).
A third party bank will serve as custodian of the AlphaKeys Fund's assets. In
addition to the Administrator, the AlphaKeys Fund may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, retain other persons (including Ernst & Young LLP and Citi Private
Equity Services, Inc. or others) to perform certain administrative, accounting,
portfolio, investor and other services for the AlphaKeys Fund at the AlphaKeys
Fund's expense, including the preparation of reports to Members and the
AlphaKeys Fund's tax returns, including Schedule K-1s. In consideration of such
services, the AlphaKeys Fund will generally pay the service provider a fee which
may be a flat fee or may be based on the average net assets of and/or the
number of investors in the AlphaKeys Fund, subject to a monthly minimum. The
AlphaKeys Fund will also reimburse the service provider for any out-of-pocket
expenses. Fees paid to the service provider in such capacity will not reduce the
Administrative Fee.
In addition, the AlphaKeys Fund may engage other
administrative service providers.
The AlphaKeys Fund may terminate the Interest of any Member if the AlphaKeys
Fund determines that the continued participation of such Member in the
AlphaKeys Fund would be detrimental to the AlphaKeys Fund (including, without
limitation, if the continued participation of such Member would cause the
AlphaKeys Fund to be excluded from certain investments by the Underlying
Fund). In addition, the AlphaKeys Fund may terminate the Interest of any
Member who is a UBS employee if the continued participation of such Member is
determined by the Member Designee to subject any of the AlphaKeys Fund, the
Member Designee, or their respective affiliates to any adverse consequence
under any laws, rules or regulations applicable to any of the AlphaKeys Fund, the
Member Designee, or their respective affiliates. In the event of any termination
of a Member's Interest, such Member (a) may be paid an amount equal to its
Capital Account balance as of the termination date within ninety (90) days or as
soon thereafter as the AlphaKeys Fund has available funds as determined by the
Member Designee, in its sole and absolute discretion, which amount may be

significantly less than the amount such Member would receive if it held its
Interest through the termination date of the AlphaKeys Fund or (b) may have its
Interest sold or transferred to any other person or persons (including an affiliate
of the Member Designee or the Administrator or in a transaction in which the
Member Designee, the Administrator or one of their affiliates is acting as agent
or principal) at whatever price or terms, in the Member Designee's sole and
absolute discretion (with the net proceeds, if any, of such sale inuring to the
benefit of such Member) and allowing the transferee of such Interest to assume
such Member's unfunded Capital Commitment.
If a Member dies, the recipient of the Interest of such Member will continue as a
successor to such Member, provided, however, that the Member Designee may,
in its sole and absolute discretion, terminate such Member's Interest upon five (5)
days' prior written notice to such recipient of such Interest. In the event of any
such termination of such Member's Interest, such Member (or successor) will be
paid as described in "Involuntary Termination of Member's Interest" above.
The LLC Agreement may be amended with the approval of (i) the Member
Designee, (ii) the Administrator, and (iii) where applicable, a majority-in-interest
of the Capital Commitments of non-Defaulting Members. A Member will be
deemed to consent to a proposed amendment if the Member has received notice
of such amendment and did not object thereto within a reasonable, and
specifically disdosed, time period that is consistent with applicable law.
Amendments increasing the obligation of any Member to make capital
contributions to the AlphaKeys Fund or reducing any Member's capital account
(in each case other than as permitted in the LLC Agreement) may not be made
without the consent of any Members materially and adversely affected thereby or
unless any such Member has received notice of such amendment and, in the case
of a Member objecting to such amendment, a reasonable opportunity to
withdraw its Interests. Amendments that (i) increase Member rights, including
with respect to voting, or (ii) otherwise would not materially and adversely affect
Members, will not require Member consent.
The terms of the Underlying Fund, including the terms described herein, are
subject to change. In the event of any such change to the terms of the
Underlying Fund, as an investor in the Underlying Fund, the AlphaKeys Fund will
be subject to such changed terms.
The Member Designee may in the future, in its sole discretion and without notice
to the Members, restructure the AlphaKeys Fund or the Member Designee in
order to comply with laws or regulations (including, but not limited to, the Bank
Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "BHC Act")) or to reduce or
eliminate the impact or applicability of any bank regulatory restrictions to which
the Member Designee or the AlphaKeys Fund: (i) are subject, or (ii) will be subject
upon engaging in a new business transaction.
The AlphaKeys Fund's fiscal year will be the calendar year, unless the Code
requires a year other than the calendar year to be used as the taxable year, in
which case the fiscal year will be the taxable year required by the Code.
The AlphaKeys Fund intends to deliver to the Members audited annual financial
reports of the AlphaKeys Fund as soon as practicable after the condusion of the
AlphaKeys Fund's fiscal year. Nevertheless, due to (a) a change in accounting
rules or interpretations that may make it difficult for the Administrator or costly
for the AlphaKeys Fund to provide audited financial reports or (b) the
ER305378-MAXWELL
-16-
CONFIDENTIAL
UBSTERRAMAR00001797
EFTA00237428
unavailability of necessary information from the Underlying Fund, the AlphaKeys
Fund may deliver unaudited annual financial reports to Members. An annual
audit of financial reports may only be completed once the AlphaKeys Fund
receives audited financial statements from the Underlying Fund in respect of the
same fiscal year. Consequently, the preparation of the AlphaKeys Fund's audited
annual financial reports may occur later than would otherwise be the case. If the
Underlying Fund is unable to complete its audit (or if the Underlying Fund issues
a qualified audit report), the AlphaKeys Fund will be unable to complete its own
audit (or the AlphaKeys Fund will have to issue a qualified audit report). In
addition, Members may receive periodic reports regarding the AlphaKeys Fund's
operations. To the extent that such reports reflect valuations of investments
made by the Underlying Fund, such valuations may be based on information
provided by the Underlying Fund. Such valuations are subjective in nature and
may not conform to any particular valuation standard.
Audited financial reports, as well as other financial reports of the AlphaKeys
Fund, will be prepared in accordance with such accounting method as the
Administrator determines in its sole and absolute discretion is in the best interest
of the AlphaKeys Fund, which may not be in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles. The AlphaKeys Fund will adopt the accrual
method for tax accounting purposes or any other accounting method permitted
by the Code which the Administrator determines in its sole and absolute
discretion is in the best interest of the AlphaKeys Fund.
Each Member will be furnished information on Schedule K-1 for preparation of
its respective U.S. federal income tax returns. In order for the AlphaKeys Fund to
furnish such information and complete its tax reporting obligations, the
AlphaKeys Fund must, among other things, receive timely information from the
Underlying Fund. The Schedule K-1s will not be available prior to April 15
and accordingly, Members may need to obtain extensions for the filing of
their own individual tax returns. See "Section V. Certain Material U.S.
Federal Income Tax Considerations."
Indemnification None of the Administrator, the Member Designee or their affiliates, or their
respective current or former shareholders, directors, officers, trustees, partners,
members, employees, managers or agents of any of them (each, a "Covered
Person") will be liable to the AlphaKeys Fund or any Member for any act or
omission, induding any mistake of fad or error in the performance of services to
the AlphaKeys Fund, except for any such act or omission constituting fraud,
willful misfeasance, conviction of a felony, willful violation of law, gross
negligence, or reckless disregard of duties in the conduct of such person's office,
in each case having a material adverse effect on the AlphaKeys Fund ("Dating
Conduct").
The AlphaKeys Fund (and not any Covered Person), will (i) be
responsible for any losses resulting from "trading" errors and similar human
errors, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless
disregard in the performance of the obligations and duties of any Covered
Person or (ii) receive the gain from such errors, as the case may be. The
AlphaKeys Fund will indemnify Covered Persons against all claims, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses, induding legal fees and expenses, to which they
may be or become subject by reason of their activities on behalf of the
AlphaKeys Fund or otherwise relating to the LLC Agreement or the
Administrative Services Agreement, except to the extent that such claims,
damages, liabilities, costs or expenses are finally determined by a non-appealable
judgment to have resulted primarily from such person's Disabling Conduct. See

"—Return of Distributions" above. Expenses incurred by a Covered Person in
defense or settlement of any claim that may be subject to a right of
indemnification hereunder may be advanced by the AlphaKeys Fund to such
Covered Person prior to the final disposition thereof upon receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered Person to repay such amount if a
court of competent jurisdiction determines in a non-appealable judgment that
the Covered Person was not entitled to be indemnified hereunder. The right of
any Covered Person to the indemnification provided herein will be cumulative
with, and in addition to, any and all rights to which such Covered Persons may
otherwise be entitled by contract or as a matter of law or equity and will extend
to such Covered Person's successors, assigns, heirs and legal representatives.
The above will not be construed to provide indemnification for any liability to the
extent that such indemnification would be in violation of applicable law or such
liability may not be waived, modified or limited under applicable law.
In addition, the AlphaKeys Fund, like all other investors of the Underlying Fund,
will agree to indemnify the Underlying Fund General Partner, the Underlying
Fund Adviser and/or any of their affiliates as more fully described in the
Underlying Fund Memorandum. Any costs or liabilities associated with such
indemnification will be borne by the AlphaKeys Fund (and thus, the Members).
Moreover, the AlphaKeys Fund indemnifies the Placement Agent under certain
circumstances, as set forth in the Placement Agreement.
Default
In the event that the AlphaKeys Fund fails to make a capital contribution (in
whole or in part) to the Underlying Fund in a timely manner as a result of the
failure of a Member to make a Capital Contribution to the AlphaKeys Fund, (a)
such failure could cause the AlphaKeys Fund in its entirety to be in default under
the Underlying Fund Operating Document and (b) the Underlying Fund may
impose certain remedies, including without limitation, forcing the AlphaKeys
Fund to forfeit a portion or all of its interest in the Underlying Fund (the "Fund
Defaulted Interest") which may materially and adversely affect non-Defaulting
Members in the AlphaKeys Fund. If the AlphaKeys Fund were to forfeit all or any
portion of its interest in the Underlying Fund because of one or more Member
defaults, all Members in the AlphaKeys Fund could be adversely impacted by (i)
losing some or all of their indirect investment in the Underlying Fund or (ii)
bearing all or some of the costs of such defaults as Fund Expenses.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Underlying Fund takes
action in respect of any Fund Defaulted Interest, the Member Designee will have
broad discretion to amend the LLC Agreement to attempt to ensure that any
action taken by the Underlying Fund in respect of the AlphaKeys Fund Defaulted
Interest will only adversely affect the Interest of the Defaulting Member in the
AlphaKeys Fund.
If any Member fails to make all or any portion of any Capital Contribution when
due (a "Default"), then such Member may be designated by the Member
Designee as in default under the LLC Agreement (a "Defaulting Member").
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Member fails to make all or any portion of
such Capital Contribution when due, such Member may be assessed a late fee or
other charge (including, without limitation, interest) on such outstanding amount
in an amount to be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the
Member Designee, in accordance with commercially reasonable standards, for
each day all or any portion of such Capital Contribution is outstanding.
With respect to any Capital Contribution (or portion thereof) that is subject to a
ER305378-MAXWELL
-18-
CONFIDENTIAL
UBSTERRAMAR00001799
EFTA00237430
Default (the "Defaulted Amount") the Member Designee may (i) increase the
Capital Contributions of the Members that have made their corresponding
Capital Contributions, pro rata based on the Capital Contributions of the non-
defaulting Members, to the extent necessary to fund the Defaulted Amount, (ii)
cause the AlphaKeys Fund to obtain (through a borrowing or otherwise) such
amounts as are necessary to fund the Defaulted Amount, the cost of which may
be assessed to the Defaulting Member provided that, in the event that the
AlphaKeys Fund is unable to recover such amounts from the Defaulting Member,
the Members may bear such amounts as Fund Expenses.
The AlphaKeys Fund will have the right to bring legal action against a Defaulting
Member to collect the Capital Contributions due to the AlphaKeys Fund plus
legal fees and other costs, expenses and liabilities incurred by the AlphaKeys
Fund (including any such costs, expenses and liabilities imposed by the
Underlying Fund against the AlphaKeys Fund) in connection with the Default, as
well as a late fee on the defaulted amount and any other amounts not timely
paid in an amount to be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the
Member Designee in accordance with commercially reasonable standards, for
each day all or any portion of such amounts are outstanding. In addition, a
Defaulting Member may, at the discretion of the AlphaKeys Fund, with respect to
all or some of its Interest, be subject to any (or any combination) of the following
remedies: (i) having its Capital Account frozen, (ii) having to bear up to the full
amount of any losses incurred by the AlphaKeys Fund due to its Default, to the
extent of its Capital Account, but not share in any income or gain, (iii) being
prohibited from sharing in any future capital call with respect to its Capital
Commitment, (iv) having its Interest sold or transferred to any other person or
persons who may be admitted as a substitute Member (induding the Member
Designee, the Administrator or one of their affiliates or in a transaction in which
the Member Designee, the Administrator or one of their affiliates is acting as
agent or principal) at whatever price or terms, in the Member Designee's sole
and absolute discretion (with none of the proceeds, if any, of such sale inuring to
the benefit of the Defaulting Member) and allowing the transferee of such
Interest to assume the Defaulting Member's unfunded Capital Commitment, (v)
having its Interest reallocated among non-Defaulting Members on terms
established by the Member Designee in its sole and absolute discretion, (vi)
having its obligations to pay its pro rata share of organizational and other Fund
Expenses continue as if the Default had not occurred, (vii) having its remaining
unfunded Capital Commitment accelerated, (viii) having amounts otherwise
distributable to it applied in satisfaction of any amounts payable by it, (ix) having
its Sharing Percentage reduced to zero, (x) having the amount of such Default
withdrawn from any account maintained by it with any affiliate of the Member
Designee or the Administrator to the extent of available funds thereof, (xi) having
a lender (including the Member Designee, the Administrator and their affiliates)
lend to it all or any part of the funds required of the Defaulting Member as
further described in the LLC Agreement, (xii) forfeiting its Interest in the
AlphaKeys Fund in full, and/or (xiii) being subject to any other remedy available
under sections 18-306 and 18-5O2(c) of the Delaware Limited Liability Company
Act, 6 Del C. § 18-101 et seq., at law or in equity to the AlphaKeys Fund.
The Member Designee reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to
implement any one or a combination of the above remedies, including remedies
that may benefit the Member Designee, the Administrator and their affiliates to
the exclusion of the AlphaKeys Fund or any non-Defaulting Members.

Under the LLC Agreement, the Member Designee is granted an irrevocable
power of attorney to sign on behalf of each Member (i) any amendments to the
certificate of formation of the AlphaKeys Fund, certain amendments to the LLC
Agreement, as well as any instruments, documents and certificates as may be
required by law from time to time to effect, implement or continue the existence
of the AlphaKeys Fund and (ii) any instruments, documents and certificates as
may be necessary or advisable to effect or implement the transactions described
under "Parallel Funds", "Alternative Vehides" and "Cayman Vehicle" above.
Members will be members of a limited liability company as provided under
Delaware law. Except as otherwise provided under Delaware law, in the LLC
Agreement and under "Return of Distributions" above, a Member will only be
liable for the debts, obligations or liabilities of the AlphaKeys Fund to the extent
of such Member's Capital Contributions and unfunded Capital Commitment. In
addition, each Member (or former Member) will be obligated to make payments
to, or return to the AlphaKeys Fund pursuant to the LLC Agreement, any funds
wrongfully distributed to the Member (or former Member) or as may otherwise
be required under applicable law.
The AlphaKeys Fund expects to be classified as a partnership for U.S. federal
income tax purposes. Because of this dassification, subject to the discussion
under "Tax Returns and Audits" in "Section V. Certain Material U.S. Federal
Income Tax Considerations" below, the AlphaKeys Fund generally will not be
subject to U.S. federal income tax, and each Member will be allocated its share

credits) of the AlphaKeys Fund (including the AlphaKeys Fund's allocable shar
