Investment Strategy
´ Concentrated Value: We rely on fundamental analysis to determine intrinsic
value and then buy shares in companies for less with a margin of safety. We
look for undervalued companies to invest in common stock and, when
deemed appropriate, options or warrants.
´ Special Situations: We seek to invest in opportunities where there is change
taking place. Special situations are commonly identified as mergers &
acquisitions, bankruptcy proceedings or companies spinning off divisions.
´ Conviction: We observe that a limited number of high quality investment
ideas produce better long-term performance than a large number of
marginal investment ideas and we therefore strive to manage
concentrated portfolios of between 20 and 30 holdings.
´ Time Horizon: Most common stock investments are held with a timeline of
two to five years. Special situation investments are shorter term in nature and
usually held for less than one year.
8
Why Special Situations / Events9
Spinoffs
Mergers & Acquisitions
Regulatory Rulings
´ Unlocks Value: Parts > the whole
´ Unnatural Shareholder Base
´ Arbitrage Opportunities
´ Binary Outcomes
Options and warrants assume bell-curve valuation probabilities, so
discrete or binary events result in temporary but tradeable mispricing.

Why It Works
´ Size: Modest AUM allows us to be more Nimble
´ Client Base: Values above average returns
over volatility and fees
´ Institutional Constraints: Post-event mis-pricing triggers
inadvertent stop losses
´ Not following the herd is hard: We’re doing something different.
Sometimes you have to lean in the other direction for a long time
before Mr. Market prices things correctly. Most investors don’t have
the conviction to wait it out - we do.
14
Why It Appears "Volatile"
´ Upside volatility is greater than downside volatility
´ Special Situations cause Market Confusion:
´ Spin-offs: Early trading is characterized by supply and demand mispricings
´ M&A Arbitrage: The binary outcome causes step movements in equity pricing
´ Wide bid/ask spreads result in unfavorable mark to market
´ Value can be inherently volatile – investing in out of favor companies
´ Example:
´ Dean Foods spinoff of WhiteWave in 2013 using DF 21SEP13 20.0 C
´ Day 1: Pre-spin Buy on 5/23/13: $1.48 per contract
´ Day 38: Post-spin on 6/30/13: Marked to market at 0.89 (-40%)
´ Day 71: Final Sale on 8/2/13: $3.03 per contract (+104% profit)

Our Story
We started with a simple idea…
´ There are a handful of great investment managers that we don’t
have access to, so let’s use their philosophies and provide this
service to a wider investor community.
´ Many of these managers are inaccessible, not accepting new
investors and the ones who are require very large minimum
investments. What remains are a mishmash of subpar investment
products marketed to the masses. These products are part of a large
sales machine and are conceived to gather assets on a massive
scale. Interests are misaligned, investors are rarely treated well, and
fees are usually hidden in fine print or nondescript terms.
´ We are attempting to mimic the great investment managers that
are doing right by their clients while offering these services to
common investors.
18
Investment Operations
´ Separately Managed Accounts
• Clients have access to account at all times
• Quarterly letter from the portfolio manager
´ Interactive Brokers used as advisor platform
• Clients have unique username and password to log in at any time
• Highly transparent – they can see account trades and holdings
• Receive quarterly statements directly from Interactive Brokers
´ Established and Repeatable Investment Process
• Value Screens and Special situations calendars as idea generation
• Fundamental Analyses identifies undervalued opportunities
• Cash + equities + options and warrants provide a unique risk/reward profile

Disclosures
1. Northwood Investment Partners, LLC (“NWIP”) is an independent registered investment advisor registered in the states of Washington and Colorado and
established in 2013. NWIP manages primarily equity portfolios using value investing principles mainly for high net worth individuals and institutions. Please
contact Frederick Myers at Northwood Investment Partners (206-395-4128) for additional information regarding a complete list and description of all firm
composites and/or policies for valuing portfolios, calculating performance, and preparing compliant presentations.
2. Performance of accounts managed by Northwood Investment Partners, LLC and Frederick Myers have been verified by Demetrius Berkower LLC from
September 1, 2009 through July 31, 2015. A copy of the investment performance examination is available upon request. The Northwood Investment Partners,
LLC composite presented contains all accounts managed by the firm since formation in 2013 and all accounts managed by Frederick Myers prior to
formation of the firm. Returns of less than one year are not annualized. No fees were charged on accounts managed prior to 2013. Returns shown are net of
fees starting in the third quarter of 2013.
3. Investing in securities always carries the risk of potential loss of investment principal. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Your results will vary.
Account returns may be higher or lower than composite returns due to differences in holdings, timing of transactions, and account inception date. As the
client base changes, the composite may change, making comparisons over time less meaningful. The investment return and principal value of an
investment will fluctuate so that an investor's account may be worth more or less than their original investment.
4. The S&P 500® return is inclusive of dividends and can be found at www.spindices.com. This index is used as a benchmark because it is a world-renowned
index including 500 leading companies in the U.S. economy. While the S&P 500® focuses on the large-capitalization segment of the market, with a majority
coverage of U.S. equities, it is also a relevant proxy for the total market. Furthermore, investing in an index fund tracking the S&P 500® is relatively
straightforward for the average investor. S&P 500® is a trademark of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.
5. The positions, trading criteria, trading period, trading dates, execution of trades, use of leverage, use of derivatives, fees and expenses and other criteria
of the composite portfolio may not be the same as those of other investor's accounts, the performance of other investor's accounts may not be comparable
to that of the composite portfolio. Investors are cautioned to avoid drawing conclusions about the performance of their own accounts based on the
performance of the composite portfolio.
6. Minimum account size is $100,000. Fees vary based on qualified client status.

  • 18. Our Story We started with a simple idea… ´ There are a handful of great investment managers that we don’t have access to, so let’s use their philosophies and provide this service to a wider investor community. ´ Many of these managers are inaccessible, not accepting new investors and the ones who are require very large minimum investments. What remains are a mishmash of subpar investment products marketed to the masses. These products are part of a large sales machine and are conceived to gather assets on a massive scale. Interests are misaligned, investors are rarely treated well, and fees are usually hidden in fine print or nondescript terms. ´ We are attempting to mimic the great investment managers that are doing right by their clients while offering these services to common investors. 18

  • 22. Disclosures 1. Northwood Investment Partners, LLC (“NWIP”) is an independent registered investment advisor registered in the states of Washington and Colorado and established in 2013. NWIP manages primarily equity portfolios using value investing principles mainly for high net worth individuals and institutions. Please contact Frederick Myers at Northwood Investment Partners (206-395-4128) for additional information regarding a complete list and description of all firm composites and/or policies for valuing portfolios, calculating performance, and preparing compliant presentations. 2. Performance of accounts managed by Northwood Investment Partners, LLC and Frederick Myers have been verified by Demetrius Berkower LLC from September 1, 2009 through July 31, 2015. A copy of the investment performance examination is available upon request. The Northwood Investment Partners, LLC composite presented contains all accounts managed by the firm since formation in 2013 and all accounts managed by Frederick Myers prior to formation of the firm. Returns of less than one year are not annualized. No fees were charged on accounts managed prior to 2013. Returns shown are net of fees starting in the third quarter of 2013. 3. Investing in securities always carries the risk of potential loss of investment principal. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Your results will vary. Account returns may be higher or lower than composite returns due to differences in holdings, timing of transactions, and account inception date. As the client base changes, the composite may change, making comparisons over time less meaningful. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's account may be worth more or less than their original investment. 4. The S&P 500® return is inclusive of dividends and can be found at www.spindices.com. This index is used as a benchmark because it is a world-renowned index including 500 leading companies in the U.S. economy. While the S&P 500® focuses on the large-capitalization segment of the market, with a majority coverage of U.S. equities, it is also a relevant proxy for the total market. Furthermore, investing in an index fund tracking the S&P 500® is relatively straightforward for the average investor. S&P 500® is a trademark of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. 5. The positions, trading criteria, trading period, trading dates, execution of trades, use of leverage, use of derivatives, fees and expenses and other criteria of the composite portfolio may not be the same as those of other investor's accounts, the performance of other investor's accounts may not be comparable to that of the composite portfolio. Investors are cautioned to avoid drawing conclusions about the performance of their own accounts based on the performance of the composite portfolio. 6. Minimum account size is $100,000. Fees vary based on qualified client status. 22
