Item 5: Fees and Compensation
A. The applicable fees for each Private Fund are disclosed to investors in the constituent documents
of each Private Fund. The Firm or its designee is generally entitled to receive a management fee
payable quarterly by the applicable Private Fund with respect to each of the Private Fund’s
investors (other than any affiliated investor or as described below). The general partners of the
Private Funds (the “General Partners”) generally receive or will receive a “carried interest” or
incentive allocation, in each case, from the Private Fund with respect to such Private Fund’s
investors (other than any affiliated investor or as described below). Incentive allocations are
typically measured as a percentage of the profits of a Private Fund and are determined
separately for each Private Fund at a rate generally consistent with industry standards.
B. As more fully described in the constituent documents for each Private Fund, management fees
are generally payable to Cornell quarterly in advance with fees payable on a pro-rata basis for
any period that is less than a full quarterly period. The investment advisory agreement and other
constituent documents generally provide for a management fee commencing on the investment
date or closing date, which is initially based on a percentage of the aggregate capital
commitments of the relevant Private Fund until the earlier of (a) the end of the investment
period of the Private Fund and (b) activation of a successor to the Private Fund, as described in
the constituent documents. Thereafter, until the final liquidating distribution of the Private Fund,
a management fee is generally calculated as a percentage of the actively invested capital of the
Private Fund, which is defined in each Fund’s constituent documents and generally means the
aggregate amount of invested capital in fund investments that remain unrealized, as reduced by
the cost basis of any investment (or portion thereof) that has been realized and/or by any
notional loss (as defined in the relevant agreement). Because management fees are paid
quarterly in advance and calculated as of the first day of each quarter, a transition from charging
on aggregate capital commitments to actively invested capital occurring mid-quarter will not
result in any refund or recalculation of fees already paid. The new fee base will take effect
beginning with the first day of the following quarter. All management fees are determined
separately for each Private Fund at a rate generally consistent with industry standards. Cornell
may, in its sole discretion, permit investors who are employees, “friends and family” or Cornell
personnel to invest in a Private Fund without being subject to the management fee or the carried
interest. In addition, certain investors may be entitled to invest on a waived, reduced, or
otherwise more favorable management fee and/or carried interest basis pursuant to certain Side
Letters (as defined below) entered into by Cornell with such investors.
As more fully described in the constituent documents for each Private Fund, Cornell, the relevant
General Partner, the relevant investment manager and/or their respective affiliates or
employees expect to receive (i) fees or amounts paid by any third party in connection with the
acquisition, termination, cancellation or abandonment of any Private Fund investment or
proposed investment that is ultimately not consummated, including any transaction, closing,
advisory, “break-up” or “topping” fees and (ii) fees paid by a portfolio company or any affiliate
of a portfolio company, including any monitoring fees, advisory fees, director’s fees or consultant
fees (clauses (i) and (ii), “Transaction Fees”). Additionally, as more fully described in the
constituent documents for each Private Fund, Cornell and/or the General Partner of the
applicable Private Fund and/or their respective affiliates or employees are generally authorized
to and expect to receive certain other fees (“Other Fees”) including, without limitation, (i)
reimbursements for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with providing the services
in respect of which any Transaction Fees were paid, (ii) amounts received in connection with co-
investments (such as management fees, carried interest, expense reimbursements, commitment
fees, transaction fees, accounting or administration fees, and other similar fees related thereto),
(iii) compensation for serving as a senior advisor to Cornell, a Private Fund, the manager of a
Private Fund or any portfolio company of a Private Fund, (iv) interest received in connection with
advancing funds to a Private Fund and (v) fees received by a person other than Cornell, a Private
Fund, the manager of a Private Fund or any portfolio company, including fees received by certain
co-investors.
Management fees that certain Private Funds would otherwise be required to pay in any given
quarter are typically offset by the Private Fund’s allocable share of Transaction Fees received by
Cornell or another affiliated person (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not by the amount of any
Other Fees), as set forth in such Private Fund’s constituent documents. The portion of any
Transaction Fee allocable to a Private Fund for purposes of calculating the management fee
offset is determined based on such Private Fund’s pro-rata ownership percentage in the relevant
portfolio company. Because portfolio companies in which a Fund invests generally have equity
holders other than the Fund—including management shareholders and outside co-investors
who participate either through or outside of Cornell’s advised co-investment vehicles—the

Item 7: Types of Clients Cornell provides investment advisory services to pooled investment vehicles that invest in portfolio companies. Investors in the pooled investment vehicles managed by Cornell may include high-net- worth individuals and a variety of institutional investors (e.g., trusts, employee benefit plans, endowments, foundations, sovereigns, corporations, and other types of entities, including private funds of funds). Some of the Firm’s clients are privately offered funds, which will typically be structured as limited partnerships that are exempt from registration as investment companies under U.S. law by virtue of Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). To qualify for the 3(c)(7) exemption, all investors in the privately offered funds are required to be “qualified purchasers” (as defined in the Investment Company Act) and must satisfy such other investor qualification requirements in order to satisfy applicable securities laws. In addition, the privately offered funds rely on Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, which requires all investors to be “accredited investors”. |
