Connective is a investment adviser that provides discretionary investment management services by providing investment advice based on individual client needs. Customizing its investment services to each client's objectives, Connective seeks to develop an investment strategy for each client after reviewing the client's overall financial situation, investment restrictions, financial and personal objectives and specific investment goals. Connective manages each client's portfolio based upon the individual needs and objectives of the client. Connective generally is granted unlimited discretion, subject to written investment objectives, guidelines and investment restrictions developed with the client. Connective's discretionary authority to make investments for a portfolio is directed by written investment guidelines and investment restrictions, if any, and guidelines provided by the client and set forth in the client's advisory contract. Connective generally has, subject to those investment objectives, guidelines and investment restrictions, discretion to determine the securities in which the account will be invested, the amounts to be invested, and the price and timing of purchases and sales for the particular accounts in question. Prior to accepting a new client, Connective will make reasonable efforts to obtain information concerning a prospective client's financial and tax status, investment objectives, experience, sophistication, risk tolerance and other relevant information. For example, a client may elect to impose

certain restrictions regarding investing in certain securities or types of securities or may require that a certain minimum or maximum level of cash be maintained for its account. Connective may offer investment advice not involving investment supervisory services to clients requiring periodic review of their investments and investment strategy. Investment advice of a non- periodic nature may be provided on a consultation basis and may include specific transaction recommendations that are not part of a continuous investment advisory agreement. Connective also offers non-discretionary investment services to clients, which permits clients to maintain some or complete discretionary authority over their accounts. In a non-discretionary relationship, Connective customarily would make periodic investment recommendations to the client involving the purchase and sale of securities. Connective does not provide tax services, including any form of tax advice, and does not participate in any wrap fee programs. Connective only provides investment advice with respect to certain types of investments and strategies as described in Item 8 herein. Connective is organized as a Delaware limited liability company and has its principal office in New York City. Connective is primarily owned and controlled, by Messrs. Philippe Comby and Rudolf Millisits, who also provide portfolio management services to clients. As of December 31, 2022, Connective managed approximately $102,676,408.28 of client assets on a discretionary basis. u
