LibreMax Asset-Backed Income Fund
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
April 30, 2026
1.Organization
LibreMax Asset-Backed Income Fund (the “Fund”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on June 2, 2025, and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), as amended, as a continuously offered closed-end management investment company operating as an “interval fund”. The Fund is non-diversified for the purposes of the 1940 Act. The Fund will continuously offer Class A, Class I and Class L Common Shares. The Fund has received exemptive relief from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that permits the Fund to issue multiple classes of its shares and to impose distribution and shareholder servicing fees.
As of April 30, 2026, the Fund has had no operations other than those actions relating to organizational and registration matters, including the Private Fund Conversion, as defined below. There are an unlimited number of authorized common shares of beneficial interest.
The Fund’s investment objective seeks to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns and generate current income. To pursue its investment objective, the Fund will invest in private asset-backed finance products (“Private ABF”) and traded structured credit products (“Traded Securitizations”) and other credit related investments that provide exposure to asset-backed investments (collectively, with Private ABF and Traded Securitizations, “ABF Investments”). In contrast to Traded Securitizations, Private ABF Investments do not trade on an organized market. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes, in securities and other investments that the Investment Manager believes are, at the time of investment, considered to be ABF Investments (“80% Policy”). The Fund will seek to achieve its investment objective by investing in a wide array of ABF Investments such as loans, leases, mortgages, and other receivables across a broad range of asset classes. ABF Investments may provide direct or indirect exposure to asset-backed finance investments. The asset classes may include, but are not limited to, residential and consumer loans, small business loans, trade receivables, royalties, financial assets, physical assets such as equipment or other types of secured credit backed by physical assets. For purposes of the 80% Policy, the Fund may, among other things, (i) buy or commit to ABF Investments including equity investments that provide exposure to ABF Investments, (ii) originate loans secured by ABF Investments including senior and mezzanine loans, (iii) insure or provide capital relief against ABF Investments, (iv) provide capital to enterprises whose primary business is organization/management of ABF Investments and (v) invest in securitizations and/or derivative investments that provide exposure to ABF Investments. In addition, the Fund may also invest a portion of its assets in notes, bills, debentures, bank loans, convertible and preferred securities and government and municipal obligations. The Fund is permitted to change its 80% investment policy without a shareholder vote, provided the Fund conducts a repurchase offer prior to the change, the Fund provides at least 60 days’ prior notice of any change in the policy in advance of the offer, the offer is not oversubscribed, and the Fund purchases shares at their net asset value.
2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Fund is an investment company and applies specific accounting and financial reporting requirements under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services-Investment Companies.
(a) Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(b) Organization and Offering Costs
Organization and offering expenses shall mean all third party charges and out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Fund and the Investment Manager in connection with the formation of the Fund, the offering of the Fund's shares, and the admission of investors in the Fund, including, without limitation, legal, accounting, filing, advertising and all other expenses incurred in connection with the offer and sale of interests in the Fund.
5


The Fund's organizational costs of $35,416, which have been accrued through April 30, 2026, are subject to the expense limitation agreement. The Fund's offering costs of $103,249, have been recorded as a deferred asset. These offering costs are accounted for as a deferred charge until Fund shares are offered to the public and will thereafter be amortized to expense over twelve months on a straight-line basis. The Investment Manager has paid upfront offering costs of $103,249 on behalf of the Fund which is presented on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as Accrued Offering Costs. The Fund's offering expenses are not subject to assumption by the Investment Manager pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement between the Fund and the Investment Manager as described in Note 3.
(c) Indemnifications
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements cannot be known; however, the Fund expects any risk of loss to be remote.
(d) Federal Income Taxes
The Fund intends to qualify as a “regulated investment company’ under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If so qualified, the Fund will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent it distributes substantially all of its net investment income and capital gains to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
3.Agreements
(a) Investment Management Agreement
The Investment Management Agreement (“the Agreement”) became effective as of April 30, 2026 and shall remain in effect until April 30, 2028, and thereafter may continue in effect only if such continuance is specifically approved as required under the 1940 Act or any exemptive order issued by, or guidance, interpretation, or position of the staff of, the SEC with respect thereto; provided, however, that if the shareholders of the Fund fail to approve the Agreement as provided therein, the Investment Manager may continue to serve hereunder in the manner and to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act and rules and regulations thereunder.
Pursuant to the Investment Management Agreement, the Fund shall pay to the Investment Manager compensation at an annual rate of 1.50%, accrued daily and payable monthly in arrears by the 10th business day of the next succeeding month, based upon the daily “Managed Assets” of the Fund. Managed Assets means the total value of all assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to any leverage that is outstanding), less the amount equal to all accrued debts, liabilities, and obligations of the Fund (excluding debts, liabilities and obligations representing financial leverage and the aggregate liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred shares). The value of the Fund’s assets for this purpose shall be computed in accordance with the Fund’s policies and procedures for calculating its net asset value.
The Investment Manager has contractually agreed with the Fund, through January 31, 2028, to waive its management fee or reimburse Fund expenses to the extent that the Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding any (i) taxes; (ii) brokerage commissions and expenses; (iii) acquired fund fees and expenses (as determined in accordance with SEC Form N-2); (iv) dividend expenses on short sales; (v) transactional costs, including legal costs, accounting costs and broker-dealer expenses, associated with the acquisition, monitoring and disposition of investments (including broken-deal expenses); (vi) loan servicing fees; (vii) fees and expenses in connection with establishing and maintaining leverage including a line of credit, other borrowings or the issuance of preferred shares; (viii) dividend and interest expenses with respect to preferred shares and borrowings; (ix) distribution and shareholder service fees; (x) expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with GAAP and (xi) extraordinary or non-routine expenses (such as expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization, or litigation expenses) exceed 2.50% of the Fund’s average daily net assets (the “Expense Limitation Agreement”). After its initial term, the Expense Limitation Agreement will automatically renew for consecutive one-year terms unless terminated by the Investment Manager or the Fund upon 30 days written notice to the other party prior to the end of the then-current term. In addition, the Investment Manager has contractually agreed to further waive its management fee or reimburse Fund expenses (subject to the exclusions detailed above) to the extent that the Fund’s total annual operating expenses: (i) exceed 2.00% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the one-year period ending on the first anniversary of the effective date of the Expense Limitation Agreement and (ii) exceed 2.25% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the one-year period ending on the second anniversary of the effective date of the Expense Limitation Agreement.
Under the Expense Limitation Agreement, in any month in which the Investment Management Agreement is in effect, the Investment Manager may recoup from the Fund amounts previously waived or reimbursed during the previous three years from the date of the waiver or reimbursement, provided that such amount paid to the Investment Manager will not cause the Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding any (i) taxes; (ii) brokerage commissions and expenses; (iii) acquired fund fees and expenses (as determined in accordance with SEC Form N-2); (iv) dividend expenses on short sales; (v) transactional
6


costs, including legal costs, accounting costs and broker-dealer expenses, associated with the acquisition, monitoring and disposition of investments (including broken-deal expenses); (vi) loan servicing fees; (vii) fees and expenses in connection with establishing and maintaining leverage including a line of credit, other borrowings or the issuance of preferred shares; (viii) dividend and interest expenses with respect to preferred shares and borrowings; (ix) distribution and shareholder service fees; (x) expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with GAAP and (xi) extraordinary or non-routine expenses (such as expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization, or litigation expenses subject to the exclusions above) to exceed (i) the expense limit in effect at the time of waiver or reimbursement or (ii) the expense limit in effect at the time of recoupment The amount of expenses waived and subject to recoupment through April 30, 2029, is $35,416.
(b) Distributor
At commencement of the Fund’s investment operations, Quasar Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) will serve as the Fund’s Distributor.
(c) Administrator, Custodian and Transfer Agent
At commencement of the Fund’s investment operations, the custodian to the Fund will be U.S. Bank, N.A. At commencement of the Fund’s investment operations, the administrator and transfer agent to the Fund will be U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC (doing business as U.S. Bank Global Fund Services), an affiliate of U.S. Bank, N.A.
4.Capital Shares
The Fund's common shares were initially offered at $10 per share. The shares are offered on a continuous basis at their net asset value per share.
The Fund is a closed-end “interval” fund and will make periodic offers to repurchase shares. Except as permitted by the Fund’s structure, no shareholder will have the right to require the Fund to repurchase its shares. No public market for shares exists, and none is expected to develop in the future. Consequently, shareholders generally will not be able to liquidate their investment other than as a result of repurchases of their shares by the Fund.
The Fund will make quarterly offers to repurchase between 5% and 25% of its outstanding common shares at NAV in the months of January, April, July and October, with the first such repurchase offer currently expected to be in the month of January 2026. The Fund currently intends to offer to repurchase up to 5% of its outstanding common shares quarterly at NAV, subject to approval of the Board.
5.Beneficial Ownership
The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of the fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act. As of the date of these financial statements, it is known to the Fund that private funds managed by ICONIQ Capital, LLC (“ICONIQ”) have vested ICONIQ with voting rights over more than 25% of the Fund’s outstanding common shares of beneficial interest. As of the date of these financial statements, the State of Wisconsin Investment Board is known to the Fund to beneficially own more than 25% of the Fund’s outstanding common shares of beneficial interest.
6.Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated the events and transactions through the date the financial statements were issued and determined there were no other subsequent events that required adjustment to the disclosure in the financial statements.

Item 30.     Indemnification
Article VIII of the Agreement and Declaration of Trust of the Registrant provides as follows:
Section 8.1    Limitation of Liability. Neither a Trustee nor an officer of the Trust, when acting in such capacity, shall be personally liable to any person other than the Trust or a beneficial owner for any act, omission or obligation of the Trust, any Trustee or any officer of the Trust. Neither a Trustee nor an officer of the Trust shall be liable for any act or omission in his capacity as Trustee or as an officer of the Trust, or for any act or omission of any other officer or any employee of the Trust or of any other person or party, provided that nothing contained herein or in the Act shall protect any Trustee or officer against any liability to the Trust or to Shareholders to which he would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of the office of Trustee or the duties of such officer hereunder.
Section 8.2    Indemnification.
(a)    To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Trust shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Trustee, officer, employee, or agent of the Trust and persons who serve at the Trust’s request as directors, officers or trustees of another organization in which the Trust has any interest as a shareholder, creditor, or otherwise, and may indemnify any trustee, director or officer of a predecessor organization (each of the aforementioned persons and entities, a “Covered Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims (actual or threatened), damages, liabilities, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and other legal fees and expenses, as well as accountants’ fees), judgments, fines, penalties and settlements (collectively, “Losses”) sustained or incurred by such Covered Person as a result of any act, decision or omission concerning the business or activities of, or that otherwise is related to, the Trust, including any Losses arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, investigations or proceedings that relate to or arise in connection with the operations or business of the Trust or arise out of or are based upon in whole or in part such Covered Person’s relationship to the Trust, in which such Covered Person may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, except to the extent such Losses are determined, by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable decision, to result from the willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of such Covered Person. The indemnification provided by this Article VIII shall be in addition to any other rights to which a Covered Person may be entitled under any agreement, as a matter of law or otherwise. A Covered Person shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Article VIII because the Covered Person had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies.
(b)    A Covered Person shall be deemed to have acted with due care, reasonably and in good faith and therefore entitled to indemnification hereunder if, while discharging his or her duties or performing any function on behalf of an entity referred to this Article VIII, he or she acted in the reasonable belief that his or her actions were not contrary to the best interests of the Trust and were within the scope of authority granted to such Covered Person by this Trust Instrument or other lawful authorization, or he or she reasonably relied on advice, information, opinions, reports, statements (whether oral or written), financial statements or financial data prepared or furnished by any officer, committee, senior management, legal counsel, accountant (including public accountants) or other expert in matters involving the relevant expertise, or the written advice, direction or instruction of the Board of Trustees or a committee member thereof. A Covered Person may consult with counsel and accountants with respect to the affairs of the Trust and shall be fully protected and justified, to the extent allowed by law, in acting, or failing to act, if such action or failure to act is in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel or accountants.
(c)    The provisions of this Article VIII shall continue as to a Covered Person who has ceased to serve in such capacity unless otherwise provided in a written agreement pursuant to which such Covered Person is indemnified and regardless of any subsequent amendment to or restatement of this Trust Instrument and no amendment, restatement or termination of this Trust Instrument shall reduce or restrict the extent to which these indemnification provisions apply to actions taken or omissions made prior to the date of such amendment, restatement or termination.
(d)    Expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by a Covered Person in connection with a proceeding described in this Article VIII of this Trust Instrument shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Trust prior to the final disposition of such claim (threatened or actual), investigation, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Trust of (a) an undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered Person to repay such amount if it shall be determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in this Article VIII of this Trust Instrument and (b) any of (i) such
12


Covered Person provides security for such undertaking, (ii) the Trust is insured against losses arising by reason of such payment, or (iii) a majority of a quorum of disinterested, non-party Trustees, or independent legal counsel in a written opinion, determines, based on a review of readily available facts, that there is reason to believe that such Covered Person ultimately will be found entitled to indemnification.
(e)    The rights of indemnification herein provided may be insured against by policies maintained by the Trust, shall be severable, shall not be exclusive of or affect any other rights to which any Covered Person may now or hereafter be entitled, shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Covered Person and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators or other legal representatives, or, in the case of a corporation or other entity, its corporate or other general successor, of such a person. Nothing contained herein shall affect any rights to indemnification to which Trust personnel, other than Covered Persons, and other persons may be entitled by contract or otherwise under law.
Pursuant to Rule 484 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), the Registrant furnishes the following undertaking: “Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.”

14


(2)    if the Registrant is subject to Rule 430C [17 CFR 230.430C]: each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness.
