CFI Partners, LLC (“CFIP” or the “Firm”) is a limited liability company that is registered with the SEC as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). CFIP was formed pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware on November 7, 2005. The terms “CFIP” and the “Firm” as used herein shall include CFIP’s subsidiaries, including any affiliated general partner entities, as applicable. CFIP is directly owned by Amistad Investment Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and indirectly owned by Amistad Financial Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“AFG”), through a series of wholly owned subsidiaries. CFIP is operationally independent of AFG and is managed and controlled by its board of managers (the “Board of Managers”) which is comprised of longstanding principals of CFIP Levoyd Robinson, Eric Baer, and David Dieffenbacher, along with the board-designee of The Academy Group, a mission-focused organization. CFIP conducts its advisory business from its principal office at One South Wacker Drive, Suite 3500, Chicago, Illinois 60606, United States. CFIP does not participate in wrap fee programs. As of December 31, 2023, CFIP managed approximately $1.5 billion in discretionary regulatory assets under management and $4.4 billion in non-discretionary regulatory assets under management. Investment Advisory Services CFIP currently offers discretionary and non-discretionary investment advisory services to Clients as provided in the applicable investment advisory agreement or commitment between CFIP and the respective Client. CFIP predominantly focuses on investment strategies in both alternative credit and traditional fixed income that include, but are not limited to, opportunistic credit, structured credit, private credit, distressed credit, corporate loans, relative value/arbitrage, convertibles arbitrage, and core and core-plus fixed income, as further described herein (for additional information, see “Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss”). CFIP also offers strategies involving equity and equity- like instruments for tailored separately managed accounts (“SMAs”) or in connection with vehicles that are primarily credit-focused. Clients may be invested in a singular strategy or multiple strategies as specified by the documents governing CFIP’s advisory relationship with each Client. Discretionary Advisory Services CFIP offers discretionary advisory services in the investment strategies to Clients in the form of (i) SMAs for which CFIP acts as investment manager, (ii) private commingled funds that may constitute private limited partnerships and other pooled investment vehicles (“Private Funds”) for which either CFIP or an affiliate acts as general partner and/or investment manager, and (iii) securitization vehicles that are governed by a related indenture trust agreement (collateralized loan obligation vehicles or “CLO Vehicles”) for which CFIP acts as collateral manager pursuant to a collateral management agreement (collectively referred to as “Clients”). The above structures may include the use of special purpose vehicles and alternative investment vehicles as may be appropriate for investor, tax, accounting, legal, financing, business, or other similar purposes. Tailored Advisory Services CFIP provides tailored, discretionary investment advisory services to its

Clients in accordance with each Client’s investment objectives, strategies, restrictions, and guidelines, including, where applicable, restrictions under the Advisers Act and the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “IRS Code”). SMA clients establish advisory relationships with CFIP by depositing funds, securities, or assets into accounts maintained by qualified independent custodians and granting CFIP discretionary authority to invest such accounts in accordance with each SMA client’s investment objectives, strategies, restrictions, and guidelines as set forth in Client's investment management agreement (“IMA”) or other governing documentation as mutually agreed between the Client and CFIP. SMA client accounts are owned and maintained by the SMA client which may be institutional investors or high net worth individuals. Interests in Private Funds and CLO Vehicles are generally privately offered and eligible only to qualified investors, such as institutional investors or high net worth individuals, pursuant to available exemptions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder and, if applicable, pursuant to exemptions from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Investment Company Act”). Interests in these vehicles are privately offered to qualified investors such as institutional investors and high net worth individuals. Investment objectives and restrictions for Private Funds and CLO Vehicles are detailed in the relevant governing documents, including any prospectus, private placement memorandum, limited partnership agreement, indenture trust agreement, or offering circular, as may be applicable. CFIP does not typically tailor its advisory services to the individual investment needs of investors in Private Funds or CLO Vehicles. However, with respect to Private Funds, CFIP reserves the right to enter into side letters and other agreements and arrangements with certain investors that provide terms and conditions that are more advantageous than those set forth in the applicable governing documents. Such terms and conditions may include, but are not limited to, special rights with respect to future investments and other material terms relating to transparency, reporting, withdrawal or redemption rights, and fees. Non-Discretionary Advisory Services CFIP also provides non-discretionary investment advisory services to Clients with non-discretionary agreements or commitments, and to certain investment intermediaries such as investment advisers and insurance companies (each an “Intermediary”) related to the management of the Intermediary’s underlying client portfolios (collectively referred to as “Non-Discretionary Clients”). CFIP has no authority or responsibility to manage the trading or custodial accounts of Non-Discretionary Clients, including with respect to purchasing, selling, holding, valuing and/or exercising rights with respect to particular investments. CFIP merely provides non-binding advisory recommendations, and the Non-Discretionary Client retains ultimate discretionary authority in managing the assets of and in executing investment transactions or pursuing investment strategies on behalf of their accounts. Non-Discretionary Clients are not required to accept or act on CFIP’s advisory services or recommendations.
