Strategic Value Bank Partners LLC is an Ohio limited liability company. Strategic Value Bank Partners LLC commenced business operations in August 2015. The principal owners of Strategic Value Bank Partners LLC are Martin Adams and Umberto Fedeli. Strategic Value Bank Partners conducts its advisory business through affiliated entities. Specifically, Strategic Value Bank Partners LLC and Strategic Value Private Partners LLC, serve as general partners for privately placed pooled investment vehicles. Also, Strategic Value Advisory Partners, LLC serves as sub-advisor for a privately placed pooled investment vehicle (together “Affiliated Entities”). The Affiliated Entities rely on Strategic Value Bank Partners LLC’s registration in accordance with the SEC guidance (Strategic Value Bank Partners LLC and Affiliated Entities together “Strategic Value Bank Partners”). See Item 10. This Brochure describes the business practices of Strategic Value Bank Partners, as a single advisory business. Strategic Value Bank Partners provides discretionary investment advisory services to the privately placed pooled investment vehicles (“Fund” or “Funds” collectively, the “Clients”). Strategic Value Bank Partners manages both open-end and closed-end Funds. The Funds are offered exclusively to individuals and other persons who qualify as “accredited investors” under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and “qualified clients” as defined under Rule 205-3 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”) and are therefore not required to register as investment companies with the SEC in

accordance with the exemption set forth in Section 3(c)(1) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Strategic Value Bank Partners’ investment advisory services consist of identifying and evaluating community bank investment opportunities, negotiating the terms of investments, managing and monitoring investments and ultimately monetizing such investments. Strategic Value Bank Partners makes direct equity investments. A complete description of Strategic Value Bank Partners’ advisory services is detailed in the applicable offering memorandum and investment management agreement (“Governing Documents”). Investors and prospective investors (also referred herein as “Limited Partners”) in each Fund should refer to the Governing Documents of that Fund for information on the investment objectives and investment restrictions with respect to that Fund. There can be no assurance that any of the Funds’ investment objectives will be achieved. As such, Strategic Value Bank Partners’ services are not tailored to the individualized needs of any particular investor in the Funds. Since Strategic Value Bank Partners does not provide individualized advice to investors (and an investment in the Funds does not, in and of itself, create an advisory relationship between the investor and the Adviser), investors must consider whether a particular Fund meets their investment objectives and risk tolerance prior to investing. Strategic Value Bank Partners does not participate in wrap fee programs. As of December 31, 2023, Strategic Value Bank Partners advises approximately $448,006,468 on a discretionary basis and $111,270,488 on a non-discretionary basis.
