NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual promises made herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Sec. 1.1   Feeder Fund. The Feeder Fund represents and warrants to the Master Fund that:

(a) Organization. The Feeder Fund is a Delaware limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Feeder Fund has the requisite power and authority to own its property and conduct its business as proposed to be conducted pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) 1940 Act Registration. The Feeder Fund is a registered investment company under the 1940 Act.

(c) Registration Statement. The Feeder Fund has reviewed the Master Fund’s most recent registration statement on Form N-2, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Sec. 1.2   Master Fund. The Master Fund represents and warrants to the Feeder Fund that:

(a) Organization. The Master Fund is a Delaware limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Master Fund has the requisite power and authority to own its property and conduct its business as now being conducted and as proposed to be conducted pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) Approval of Agreement. No meeting of, or consent by, holders of Interests (as defined below) of the Master Fund is necessary to approve the issuance of Interests to the Feeder Fund.

(c) Issuance of Beneficial Interest. The issuance by the Master Fund of beneficial interests (“Interests”) in exchange for the Investment by the Feeder Fund of its Assets has been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Board of Directors of

  Grosvenor Registered Multi-Strategy Fund (W), LLC Master/Feeder Agreement   Page 1 of 10

the Master Fund. When issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Interests will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

(d) 1940 Act Registration. The Master Fund is duly registered under the 1940 Act as a closed-end, diversified, management investment company and such registration is in full force and effect.

(e) SEC Filings; Securities Exemptions. The Master Fund has duly filed all forms, reports and other documents (collectively, the “SEC Filings”) required to be filed with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”) and the 1940 Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, (collectively, the “Securities Laws”). Interests in the Master Fund are not required to be registered under the 1933 Act, because such Interests are offered solely in private placement transactions which do not involve any “public offering” within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act. In addition, Interests in the Master Fund are either noticed or qualified for sale or exempt from notice or qualification requirements under applicable securities laws in those states and other jurisdictions in which Interests are offered and sold. All SEC Filings relating to the Master Fund comply in all material respects with the requirements of the applicable Securities Laws and do not, as of the date of this Agreement, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(f) Tax Status. The Master Fund is taxable as a partnership for Federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

(g) Taxable and Fiscal Year. The taxable year end of the Master Fund is December 31^st and the fiscal year end is March 31^st.

(h) Insurance. As of the date of commencement of its operations, the Master Fund has in force reasonable insurance coverage against certain liabilities that may arise as a result of the Master Fund’s business as a registered investment company.

ARTICLE II

COVENANTS

Sec. 2.1   Feeder Fund. The Feeder Fund covenants that:

(b) Fiscal Year. The Feeder Fund shall take appropriate action to maintain the same fiscal year end as the Master Fund (currently March 31^st).

(c) Proxy Voting. If requested to vote on matters pertaining to the Master Fund, the Feeder Fund will either seek instructions from its investors with regard to the voting of all proxies with respect to the Master Fund’s securities and vote such proxies only in accordance with such instructions, or vote the Interests held by it in the same proportion as the vote of all other holders of the Master Fund’s securities; provided that the Feeder Fund will not be obligated to take such action if and to the extent the Feeder Fund obtains an exemption from Section 12(d)(1)(E)(iii)(aa) of the 1940 Act.

The Master Fund’s SEC Filings will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the applicable Securities Laws, and will not, at the time they are filed or used, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(b) 1940 Act Registration. The Master Fund will remain duly registered under the 1940 Act as a closed-end, diversified, management investment company.

The Master Fund shall provide the Feeder Fund with reasonable advance written notice of any change in the Master Fund’s investment objective, or if the Master Fund has knowledge or should have knowledge that one of the following changes is likely to occur, written notice shall be provided as soon as reasonably possible after the Master Fund obtains or should have obtained such knowledge, of any material change in the Master Fund’s investment policies or activities, any material increase in the Master Fund’s fees or expenses, or any change in the Master Fund’s fiscal year.

(f) Compliance with Laws. The Master Fund shall comply, in all material respects, with all applicable laws, rules and regulations in connection with conducting its operations as a registered investment company.

Sec. 2.3   Reasonable Actions.

(a) The Feeder Fund agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Master Fund, and the Master Fund’s investment adviser, and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Master Fund or the Master Fund’s investment adviser (in this Section, each, a “Covered Person” and collectively, “Covered Persons”), against any and all losses, claims, demands, damages, liabilities or expenses (including, with respect to each Covered Person, the reasonable cost of investigating and defending against any claims therefor and any counsel fees incurred in connection therewith, except as provided in subparagraph (b)) (“Losses”), that:

  Grosvenor Registered Multi-Strategy Fund (W), LLC Master/Feeder Agreement   Page 3 of 10

(i) arise out of or are based upon any violation or alleged violation of any of the Securities Laws, or any other applicable statute, rule, regulation or common law, or are incurred in connection with or as a result of any formal or informal administrative proceeding or investigation by a regulatory agency, insofar as such violation or alleged violation, proceeding or investigation arises out of or is based upon any direct or indirect omission or commission (or alleged omission or commission) by the Feeder Fund or by any of its directors, officers, employees or agents, but only insofar as such omissions or commissions relate to the Investment; or

(ii) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus, statement of additional information, confidential memoranda or any other offering document of the Feeder Fund, or any amendments or supplements to the foregoing (in this Section, collectively “Offering Documents”), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was not made in the Offering Documents in reliance upon and in conformity with the Master Fund’s registration statement on Form N-2 and other written information furnished by the Master Fund or by any service provider of the Master Fund for use therein or for use by the Feeder Fund in preparing such documents, including but not limited to any written information contained in the Master Fund’s current registration statement on Form N-2;

provided, however, that in no case shall the Feeder Fund be liable for indemnification hereunder (i) with respect to any claims made against any Covered Person unless a Covered Person shall have notified the Feeder Fund in writing within a reasonable time after the summons, other first legal process, notice of a federal, state or local tax deficiency, or formal initiation of a regulatory investigation or proceeding giving information of the nature of the claim shall have properly been served upon or provided to a Covered Person seeking indemnification or (ii) if such Losses were the result of the negligence or willful misconduct of the Master Fund. Failure to notify the Feeder Fund of such claim shall not relieve the Feeder Fund from any liability that it may have to any Covered Person otherwise than on account of the indemnification contained in this Section.

(b) The Feeder Fund will be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense or, if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any such liability, but if the Feeder Fund elects to assume the defense, such defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by the Feeder Fund. In the event the Feeder Fund elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain such counsel, each Covered Person in the suit may retain additional counsel but shall bear the fees and expenses of such counsel unless (A) the Feeder Fund shall have specifically authorized the retaining of and payment of fees and expenses of such counsel or (B) the parties to such suit include any Covered Person and the Feeder Fund, and any such Covered Person has been advised in a written opinion by counsel reasonably acceptable to the Feeder Fund that one or more legal defenses may be available to it that may not be available to the Feeder Fund, in which case the Feeder Fund shall not be entitled to assume the defense of such suit notwithstanding its obligation to bear the fees and expenses of one counsel to all such persons. The Feeder Fund shall not be required to indemnify any Covered Person for any settlement of any such claim effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The indemnities set forth in paragraph (a) will be in addition to any liability that the Feeder Fund might otherwise have to Covered Persons.

Sec. 3.2   Master Fund.

(a) The Master Fund agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Feeder Fund and any affiliate providing services to the Feeder Fund, and any manager, director, officer, employee or agent of any of them (in this Section, each, a “Covered Person” and collectively, “Covered Persons”), against any and all losses, claims, demands, damages, liabilities or expenses (including, with respect to each Covered Person, the reasonable cost of investigating and defending against any claims therefor and any counsel fees incurred in connection therewith, except as provided in subparagraph (b)) (“Losses”), that:

(i) arise out of or are based upon any violation or alleged violation of any of the Securities Laws, or any other applicable statute, rule, regulation or common law or are incurred in connection with or as a result of any formal or informal administrative proceeding or investigation by a regulatory agency, insofar as such violation or alleged violation, proceeding or investigation arises out of or is based upon any direct or indirect omission or commission (or alleged omission or commission) by the Master Fund, or any of its directors, officers, employees or agents; or

(ii) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Offering Documents relating to the Master Fund, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Master Fund by the Feeder Fund for use therein or for use by the Master Fund in preparing such documents, including but not limited to any written information contained in the Master Fund’s current registration statement on Form N-2.

provided, however, that in no case shall the Master Fund be liable for indemnification hereunder (i) with respect to any claims made against any Covered Person unless a Covered Person shall have notified the Master Fund in writing within a reasonable time after the summonns, other first legal process, notice of a federal, state or local tax deficiency, or formal initiation of a regulatory investigation or proceeding giving information of the nature of the claim shall have properly been served upon or provided to a Covered Person seeking indemnification or (ii) if such Losses were the result of the negligence or willful misconduct of the Feeder Fund. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Fund’s indemnity to Covered Persons shall include all relevant liabilities of Covered Persons under the Securities Laws, as if the Offering Documents constitute a “prospectus” within the meaning of the 1933 Act, and the Master Fund had registered its interests under the 1933 Act pursuant to a registration statement meeting the requirements of the 1933 Act. Failure to notify the Master Fund of such claim shall not relieve the Master Fund from any liability that it may have to any Covered Person otherwise than on account of the indemnification contained in this Section.

(b) The Master Fund will be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense or, if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any such liability, but, if the Master Fund elects to assume the defense, such defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by the Master Fund. In the event the Master Fund elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain such counsel, each Covered Person in the suit may retain additional counsel but shall bear the fees and expenses of such counsel unless (A) the Master Fund shall have specifically authorized the retaining of and payment of fees

  Grosvenor Registered Multi-Strategy Fund (W), LLC Master/Feeder Agreement   Page 5 of 10

and expenses of such counsel or (B) the parties to such suit include any Covered Person and the Master Fund, and any such Covered Person has been advised in a written opinion by counsel reasonably acceptable to the Master Fund that one or more legal defenses may be available to it that may not be available to the Master Fund, in which case the Master Fund shall not be entitled to assume the defense of such suit notwithstanding its obligation to bear the fees and expenses of one counsel to such persons. The Master Fund shall not be required to indemnify any Covered Person for any settlement of any such claim effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The indemnities set forth in paragraph (a) will be in addition to any liability that the Master Fund might otherwise have to Covered Persons.
