Prospective investors must read the applicable final PPM which will contain additional information about an investment in the relevant Fund.Distribution may be restricted in certain jurisdictions.

Unless otherwise noted, information included herein is presented as of the dates indicated and may differ from the terms and provisions respecting an investment in the Funds which will be more fully set forth in the PPM and the applicable corresponding limited partnership agreements or suchother applicable constituent governing documentation of the Funds.

Information contained herein may include information respecting prior investment performance of one or more Funds or investments including gross and/or net internal rates of return (“IRRs”). Information respecting prior performance, while a useful tool in evaluating each Fund’s investmentactivities, is not necessarily indicative of actual results that may be achieved for unrealized investments. The realization of such performance is dependent upon many factors, many of which are beyond the control of FlatStone. Further, there can be no assurance that the indicated valuations forunrealized investments accurately reflect the amounts for which the subject investments could be sold. Unless otherwise noted, all IRR amounts described herein are calculated as of the dates indicated. “Gross IRR” of each Fund represents the cumulative investment-related cash flows for all ofthe investors in the applicable Fund on the basis of the actual timing of investment inflows and outflows (for unrealized investment assuming disposition of the respective “as of” dates referenced) aggregated on a gross basis quarterly, and the return is annualized and compounded beforemanagement fees, carried interest and certain other Fund expenses (including interest incurred by the Fund itself) and measures the returns on each fund’s investments as a whole without regard to whether all of the returns would, if distributed, be payable to each Fund’s investors. “Net IRR”of a Fund means the Gross IRR applicable to all investors, including related parties which may not pay fees, net of management fees, organizational expenses, transaction costs, and certain other Fund expenses (including interest incurred by the Fund itself) and realized carried interest all offsetto the extent of interest income, and measures returns based on amounts that, if distributed, would be paid to investors of the Fund.

Investing in a Fund is speculative and involves a substantial degree of risk. Risks include, but are not limited to, the fact that each of the Funds has or may have: a limited or no operating history; volatile performance; leverage use; limited liquidity with no secondary market expected andrestrictions on transferring interests; high fees and expenses; and a dependence on FlatStone, which will have exclusive authority to select and manage a Fund’s investments.

There can be no assurance that the investment objectives described herein will be achieved. Nothing herein is intended to imply that a Fund’s investment methodology may be considered “conservative,” “safe,” “risk free,” or “risk averse.” Economic, market andother conditions could also cause a Fund to alter its investment objectives, guidelines and restrictions. Investment losses may occur.”

Past performance is not indicative nor a guarantee of future returns.

Certain information contained herein may be “forward-looking” in nature. Due to various risks and uncertainties, actual events or results or the actual performance of a Fund may differ materially from those reflected or contemplated in such forward-looking information.

FlatStone Energy Partners

• Founded in 2015 as a contrarian specialist operating fund advisor for Latin American Energy & Infrastructure sectors.

• Senior management brings over 120 yrs. of full cycle E&P expertise, from due diligence to successful production LatAm projects valued in excess of USD$5B.

• Offering exclusive access to a pipeline of low-risk in exploration and production assets in Argentina, Colombia, Cuba, Guatemala, Ecuador and Peru valued in excess of USD$20B.

• Access to first level government officials, regulators, and other key decision makers in the most prolific Basins across LatAm

• Established network of relationships with global financial institutions, facilitating Co-investment and access to capital to finance deal flow of different sizes

FEP Corporate Strategy

FEP business plan focuses on the acquisition and development of Energy Assets either: Oil and Gas(“O&G”), Infrastructure (“IFA”) and/or Renewable (“RE”) across Latin America (“LatAm”).

FEP primary objective is to fund the acquisition of low risk underdeveloped producing assets inLatAm through participation interest and finance expansion aiming at increasing Cash-flows within 36months timeline.

FEP secondary objective is to secure a Mexican partner NOC/MSC to JV on energy opportunitieswith local key partners and provide access to capital, top specialist professionals and state of the arttechnologies to unlock unique projects.

FEP plans to launch three funds between Q3 2015 and Q2 2016.

I. LatAm Oil & Gas Fund 1II. Mexico Infrastructure Fund 1III. LatAm Renewable Fund 1

• A strategic vision, innovative growth-oriented energy and infrastructure Latin American private equity operating fund.

• Opportunities across 5 complementary operating units– Exploration & Production (E&P)– Infrastructure projects (IFA)– Engineering Services (EPC) – Oil field services (OFS)– Pipeline & Utilities (MID)

• Created from the Top-Down– Partners’ committee decision process– Management-operators significantly invested– Strategic focus on sub-sector opportunity areas

Global Energy Sector Outlook & Strategy

• Global Energy Sector is highly correlated with commodity prices • Consensus increased pricing for commodity $65-90 BOE Q2/16

– Speeding economic growth, North America, Core Europe and LatAm– Current pricing does not support CAPEX required to sustain supply– Marginal demand increase Emerging Markets (India, LatAm, ASEAN)– Consumers adoption of new technologies (Tesla) 5-10yrs. – Increased complexity and volatility for commodity markets.

• Strategy, to selectively allocate assets in the least correlated industries to the underlying commodity oil, and across regional market with highest margins at current level (LatAm)

– FEP provides turn-key solution for Mexican groups seeking to enter the sector– LatAm/Mexico E&P offer the lowest OPEX/CAPEX highest netbacks– LatAm renewables adoption provides opportunity to grow footprints

– LatAm benefits from increasing energy sector CAPEX

Global Energy SectorOutlook

The curve, terms structure and volatility of Brent futures indicate that we are at or near the bottom of the commodity cycle -Full cycle cost, combined with the logistics have priced out most OPEC oil from the main consumer market in the US.

The Iranian crude will increase OPEC output until Q2 perhaps Q3 2016. Geopolitical tensions across MENA and social unrest in Algeria, Iraq, Libya, Nigeria and Venezuela will result in supply balancing out.

Macroeconomic Global Outlook

• Developed economies accelerating economic growth, emerging markets turning the corner during the eventual recovery and commodity super-cycle

• Financial sector deleveraging with continuous recycling of monetary stimulus across Asia, Europe and LatAm

• Economic rotation from developed to emerging markets, increasing internal consumption of goods and services requiring energy inputs.

• Market defense strategies at OPEC are unsustainable Saudi announced USD$40 B deficit forced to cut CAPEX USD $100B, UAE cut gas subsidy and Ecuador selling crude 25% below cost

• Increased Geopolitical tensions across MENA due to high unemployment and budget cuts to fund social programs across OPEC economies;

• Political dysfunction in Washington leads to shift in power towards a Republican led government potential for tariffs and protectionist measures from OPEC strategies

• Fed announced rate increases ripple effect across the assets classes including commodities. Asset swap USD for crude and other commodities is near.

The combination of underinvestment in the energy and infrastructure sectors across the LatAm region and the projected demand growth driven by demographics, presents an historical opportunity for sophisticated investors seeking predictable income and capital appreciation.

LatAm energy and infrastructure holds the greatest potential for development during the consolidation and expansion phases of the next business cycle, because:

• low cost prolific basins, • geopolitical stability. • access to human capital

LatAm Average

Why LatAm

FEP investment thesis is that Latin America represents an attractive investment opportunity primarily due to the following facts:

• The growing number of estate owned oil and utility companies divesting assets to focus on their core operations providing an excellent pool of available opportunities;

• The opportunity to partner with local oil field service and engineering construction companies, that have inherited formerly state owned assets,

• The availability of underdeveloped and underexploited small to medium sized fields, which have been divested by large oil and gas companies due to asset rationalization and industry consolidation;

• The existence of significant numbers of underdeveloped and underexploited fields as a result of decades of mismanagement by the National Oil Companies (“NOC’s”);

• The favorable trends across the regional economic fundamentals such as growth of middle class resulting on increased demand for energy from demographic expansion and industry;

• The lowest cost in the Global Energy Sector over project lifecycle: Finding, development and acquisition (“FD&A”), general administration (“G&A”) capital expenditure (“CAPEX”) and operation (“OPEX”);

• The lowest cost of transportation and access to the main consumer market of energy in the world the North American Free Trade Area (“NAFTA”)
