'Tis true. We are a registered QIB (Qualified Institutional Buyer) and
I don't see these as major hurdles. I think that these are hurdles we
need to cross as an organization anyway so let's go for it.

I'm not rejecting the idea - just fielding questions. I'm more than
happy to figure out how to do it.

Rosemont capital partners and its affiliates meet all of these
requirements- save Registration under 40 Act which we just go ahead and
do. Also Rosemont is a QUID (?) and as for liability- thats the cost of
doing business. Point 2 can be satisfied if new entity as affiliate of
Rosemont can be counted for the 85. Point 3- we have the $1mm and
liability issued i addressed above. Tell me why we cant do this fairly
easily. And tell me why we arent looking for ways to do this rather
than just rejecting it out of hand.

Marc,
We have no registered entity nor do I think we have an appetite to
unconditionally guarantees payment of all of the adviser's liabilities.
Thanks for the update and the quick response.

Arlene:

Here is the short version of the QPAM story:

An investment manager who wishes to qualify as a QPAM must:

1) be federally registered as an investment adviser under the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940; and

2) have total client assets under its management and control in
excess
of $85 million as of the last day of the QPAM's most recent fiscal year;
and

3) have shareholders' or partners' equity in excess of $1
million (or
have an affiliate that satisfies this net worth requirement and
unconditionally guarantees payment of all of the adviser's liabilities)
as
determined by the QPAM's most recent balance sheet provided it is no
more
than two years old and was prepared in accordance with GAAP

I don't see how a new Rosemont entity would qualify; is there an
existing
Rosemont entity that is an RIA and could serve as the QPAM for the FoF?

Marc,
Hunter has asked me to get more information on "possibly" becoming a
Q-PAM.
Can you give me a call (312-498-9595) at your convenience.
