3. Informational Purposes Only; Intended Use of Website
You acknowledge that the content of the Website is provided for informational purposes only and is intended to provide information regarding Tailwind’s capabilities with respect to potential portfolio investments.  The Website is not intended to solicit investors for any security or investment product managed or sponsored by Tailwind and may not be relied upon for such purpose. Nothing contained in the Website constitutes an offer to sell, a recommendation or a solicitation of an offer to purchase any investments or securities of any investment vehicle managed or sponsored by Tailwind.  Any such offer or solicitation will be made only pursuant to a confidential offering memorandum, subscription agreement and other applicable offering documents relating to such vehicles which will qualify in their entirety any information on the Website, and will be subject to the terms and conditions contained in such documents.  Past performance is not a guarantee of future results, and you should not assume that any results for portfolio investments of Tailwind funds will be achieved for other investments.  To the extent the Website contains forward-looking statements with respect to Tailwind’s portfolio investments, you should be aware that future results may differ significantly from those anticipated by such forward looking statements.

Tailwind’s provision of information to you through the Website, including information regarding Tailwind’s current and historical portfolio investments, does not constitute the rendering of investment, consulting, legal, accounting, tax or other advice or services. You should not rely upon the information on the Website for making business, investment or other decisions or use such information as a substitute for consultation with professional advisors.

Case studies of representative investments provided in the “Portfolio” section of the Website have been selected to illustrate Tailwind’s collaboration with management teams and its ability to add value in the management and operations of its portfolio investments and are not intended as a complete list of all investments historically made or currently held by Tailwind’s funds.

Tailwind’s operating executives assist Tailwind with due diligence and evaluation of potential investments, serving as full-time executives of portfolio companies, serving as directors of portfolio companies and acting as senior advisors to Tailwind with respect to potential and existing investments. Operating executives are consultants (and not employees of Tailwind) and related fees, other compensation or expenses may be charged to Tailwind’s funds or portfolio companies.
