Firm Description Old West Investment Management, LLC (“Old West” or the “Firm”) is an independent investment management firm established in 2008.

Old West’s Chairman, Joseph Boskovich, Sr. is the principal owner of the Firm with over 25% of the Firm’s outstanding shares. Types of Advisory Services Old West provides investment management services to individuals and institutional investors through separately managed accounts and limited partnerships. Old West primarily provides those services through seven separate strategies, namely Large Cap, Small/Mid Cap, All Cap Opportunity, Focused, Income, Absolute Return, and Opportunity.

In the model approach, portfolios in a particular strategy (e.g., Large Cap, Small/Mid Cap, etc.) are grouped together and traded according to its respective model. When the Portfolio Manager changes the model, all portfolios in the strategy are typically changed as well. Clients may impose reasonable restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities held in separately managed accounts; however, no restrictions may be made with respect to investments in the limited partnerships. Client imposed restrictions must be submitted in writing.

There are no differences between how we manage wrap fee accounts and how we manage other accounts not obtained through a wrap program. Old West receives a portion of the wrap fee, which is paid to the Sponsor by the client, for providing investment advisory services to the wrap program. Client Assets As of December 31, 2022, Old West managed $312,665,991 on a discretionary basis and $6,960,670 on a non-discretionary basis.
