Item 5. Fees and Compensation One or more affiliates of Galvanize serves as general partner or managing member for each Fund. The general partner of a Fund may in its sole discretion agree to accept an alternative fee arrangement to the amounts described below with respect to any investor. Galvanize can be expected to organize additional Funds in the future with fees and expenses that may differ from the below. Galvanize’s Management Fees and Carried Interest Allocations Galvanize (or an affiliate) earns a management fee and carried interest allocation from each Fund with respect to each investor in the Fund. Management fees and carried interest allocations are generally set at the time the Fund is organized. The details of the management fees and carried interest allocations are set forth in the Fund’s governing and offering documents. Management fees are generally payable in quarterly installments in advance. Closed-End Strategies An investor in a Fund with a seed, venture or growth strategy generally pays a management fee up to approximately 2.5% per annum of committed capital up until the end or early termination of a Fund’s investment period; and generally up to approximately 2.5% per annum of the aggregate purchase price of investments held by the Fund, subject to certain reductions in value of investments, after the investment period. The general partner of a Fund with such strategy generally earns a 20.0% carried interest allocation on profits from each investor. An investor in a Fund pursuing a credit strategy will generally pay a management fee up to 1.5% per annum on invested capital. The general partner of a Fund with a credit strategy also generally earns a 20.0% carried interest allocation on profits, usually above a 7% hurdle, from each investor. An investor in a Fund with a real state strategy generally pays a management fee of approximately 1.5% per annum of committed capital until the expiration of a Fund’s investment period; thereafter, a Fund generally pays approximately 1.5% per annum of such investor’s aggregate investment contributions plus such investor’s share of investments for which the Fund has made commitments or other reserves to complete investments by the Fund. The general partner of a Fund also generally earns up to 15.0% in carried interest allocation, usually above a 7% hurdle rate, on profits from each investor, one-third of which is tied to the general partner’s accomplishments against five sustainability goals, or its key performance indicators (“KPIs”). 80% of the general partner’s KPI-linked incentive is based on achieving quantitative reductions in operational greenhouse gas emissions. Open-End Strategies The management fee varies for Funds with open-end strategies. Depending on the class, the management fee is up to 1.25% annually on an investor’s capital account in a Fund or on the net asset value of such class. For certain classes, the general partner of a Fund also generally Galvanize Climate Solutions LLC earns an incentive allocation equal to 15% of a Fund’s outperformance over a specific index, hurdle rate or benchmark, subject to underperformance carryforwards for any year the Fund did not exceed its index, hurdle rate or benchmark. The Funds’ incentive allocation structure is a modified version of what is generally known as a “high water mark.” Galvanize may, in its sole discretion, reduce or waive management fees and carried interest with respect to a particular investor, including investors who are affiliated with Galvanize. Future Funds are expected to have different fee structures. Fund Expenses A Fund will pay its own operating expenses, and investors in the Fund will indirectly bear a proportionate share of those expenses. Expenses borne by the Funds include, but are not limited to, costs and charges incurred, directly and indirectly, in connection with the formation, management, operation, maintenance and liquidation of the Funds, which include, among other fees and expenses, the following: legal expenses; accounting, tax, consulting and audit expenses; custodian and administration expenses; investment expenses; taxes, fees or other governmental charges; the cost of liability and other insurance premiums; litigation and indemnification costs and expenses; and other expenses not listed. Details regarding expenses can be found in the governing documents of the applicable Fund. KHALL Certain of KHALL’s clients are charged a management supervisory fee of up to 0.35% of the client’s net asset value, and other clients are subject to an incentive allocation of up to 1% of the client’s returns. In addition, KHALL’s clients are subject to expenses associated with their operation and administration, and also indirectly bear expenses of the underlying funds in which they are invested. Under a services agreement, KHALL agrees to pay Galvanize a fixed amount per calendar year for the compliance program administration services that the Galvanize compliance team provides to KHALL. KHALL’s clients either reimburse KHALL or pay Galvanize directly for the amount of these services. |
