| Fees and Compensation — Form ADV Part 2A (5/8/2026) [Brochure] |
|---|
Item 5. Fees and Compensation The First Reserve Funds As compensation for investment advisory services rendered to a First Reserve Fund, each First Reserve Fund is generally charged an annual management fee, payable quarterly in advance. For those Funds that have defined commitment periods, management fees during the commitment period of such First Reserve Funds generally are based on aggregate capital commitments of the Limited Partners and are asset-based thereafter. For those Funds that do not have defined commitment periods, management fees are generally asset-based throughout the term of the Fund. The management fees are negotiated collectively with the Limited Partners of each First Reserve Fund, and are subject to waiver or reduction by First Reserve. For those Funds that have defined commitment periods, management fees during the commitment period typically range from 1.00% to 2.00%. Management fees are paid by the First Reserve Funds on behalf of the Limited Partners by (i) requiring Limited Partners to make capital contributions in respect of such fees, or (ii) withholding the amount of such fees from investment proceeds that would otherwise be distributable to the Limited Partners of such First Reserve Fund. In some situations, First Reserve may cause a First Reserve Fund to incur indebtedness for the payment of management fees. Upon termination of a relevant Advisory Agreement, management fees that have been prepaid are returned on a prorated basis. Each First Reserve Fund’s confidential private offering memorandum (each such memorandum a “Confidential Private Placement Memorandum”), where applicable, and governing documents include a more detailed description of management fees charged to the Limited Partners of such First Reserve Fund. First Reserve, from time to time, receives a variety of other fees from its First Reserve Fund portfolio companies and their affiliates. Typically, a First Reserve Fund’s allocable share of all transaction, directors’, monitoring, advisory, financial, consulting, net break-up (including topping, break-up and similar fees), set-up, acquisition and commitment fees (collectively, the “Other Fees”) received by the First Reserve Advisors, their affiliates or their respective employees will be applied to reduce the quarterly management fee of the applicable First Reserve Fund. However, the reduction amount will be reduced by any broken-deal expenses that the applicable General Partner or its affiliates elected to bear instead of calling capital from the applicable First Reserve Fund. Fees received by (i) an employee of First Reserve in respect of (x) services rendered prior to the time such employee became an employee of First Reserve or (y) services rendered by such employee during any period when such employee serves in a bona fide, non-director management capacity (or other operational capacity involving a material portion of such employee’s business time) at a portfolio company or any of its affiliates, and (ii) any operating executive to First Reserve are, to the extent set forth in a First Reserve Fund’s governing documents, not treated as Other Fees for purposes of calculating applicable reductions to the management fee. The recipients of this Brochure must refer to the detailed information found in each Confidential Private Placement Memorandum, where applicable, and governing documents for specific information about the fees earned by First Reserve, including Other Fees and the fees charged to the First Reserve Funds. The General Partners of the First Reserve Funds are also entitled to receive carried interest of up to 25% of profits on distributions derived from the disposition of investments (and, in certain circumstances, other income from investments) following a preferred return to the Limited Partners as set forth in each First Reserve Fund’s Confidential Private Placement Memorandum, where applicable, and other governing documents. Infrastructure Funds On June 2, 2017, First Reserve completed the sale of its infrastructure investment business to BlackRock (the “Transaction”) in connection with which (i) BlackRock acquired the equity interests of the entities that control the General Partners of First Reserve Energy Infrastructure Fund, L.P. and First Reserve Energy Infrastructure Fund II, L.P., including related investment and co-investment vehicles (the “Infrastructure Funds”), and the First Reserve Advisors to the Infrastructure Funds, and (ii) BlackRock acquired from First Reserve 9.9% of the capital and certain carried interest held by the General Partner of one of the Infrastructure Funds. The Transaction was approved by a super-majority in the interest of the Limited Partners of each of the Infrastructure Funds. Each of the Infrastructure Funds is not a “First Reserve Fund” for purposes of references in this Form ADV. Following the Transaction, BlackRock is the investment adviser, and provides investment advisory services, to the Infrastructure Funds for compensation. However, First Reserve is entitled to receive carried interest with respect to the Infrastructure Funds as described in Item 6. Director’s Compensation Because its investment strategy includes making control investments, and in order to protect the First Reserve Funds’ interests, when making equity investments First Reserve generally seeks appropriate shareholder rights including, in most situations involving control investments, the ability to designate one or more directors to serve on the board of directors of its portfolio companies. In their capacity as directors of portfolio companies, First Reserve personnel earn compensation in the form of cash, stock options or other equity awards from time to time. A First Reserve Fund’s allocable share of any compensation received by a First Reserve employee from a First Reserve portfolio company for serving as a director for that portfolio company is ... |

Item 7. Types of Clients First Reserve provides investment advisory services to the First Reserve Funds. Investment advice is provided directly to each First Reserve Fund, subject to the direction and control of their respective General Partners, and not individually to the Limited Partners of such First Reserve Fund. Investors in the First Reserve Funds include, but are not limited to, high net worth individuals, banks, thrift institutions, pension and profit-sharing plans, sovereign wealth funds, trusts, estates, endowments, foundations, and corporate or other business entities. Details concerning applicable Investor suitability criteria are set forth in the respective First Reserve Fund’s Confidential Private Placement Memorandum, where applicable, and subscription materials. Although First Reserve and/or its affiliates have the authority to accept subscriptions for lesser amounts, minimum investment commitments generally are established for Limited Partners. Investors making capital commitments of less than the minimum investment commitment may be required to invest through an affiliated vehicle rather than through the primary First Reserve Fund. Each Investor is required to meet certain suitability qualifications, such as being an “accredited investor” within the meaning set forth under U.S. federal securities laws. |
