| Fees and Compensation — Form ADV Part 2A (3/26/2026) [Brochure] |
|---|
Item 5 – Fees and Compensation Certain fees and other compensation described herein are subject to negotiation with investors. The Adviser is not required to inform, or offer any similar arrangements to, any other client or investor, except as agreed with each such person or as required by applicable law. • The PE Asia III Funds Management Fees The PE Asia III Funds pay an annual management fee generally equal to 2% of invested capital as the investment period has terminated. PE Asia III limited partners with committed capital amounts equal to or in excess of $50 million receive a 0.5% reduction of the management fee rate. The management fee is funded by the limited partners of the PE Asia III Funds and is payable quarterly in advance. Upon termination of the management agreement between the Adviser and the applicable PE Asia III Fund, the Adviser is generally required to repay to such PE Asia III Fund or to a replacement manager, as directed by the PE Asia III General Partner of the applicable PE Asia III Fund, the unearned portion (computed on the basis of the number of days elapsed), if any, of the management fees previously paid to the Adviser (see also Co-Investments below for additional information on the fees and expenses relating to co-investments). The PE Asia III Funds have ceased paying management fees. In addition, PE Asia III has a specific fund designed to admit only Morgan Stanley current and former employees (and certain other permissible related investors) (“Employee Fund”). With respect to such Employee Fund, absent certain circumstances relating to the termination of employment of a Limited Partner with Morgan Stanley, limited partners in the Employee Fund currently pay an annual management fee ranging from 0% to 2% of invested capital as the investment period has terminated; the management fee is paid quarterly in advance. The Adviser and its professionals may charge portfolio companies transaction fees, sponsor fees, monitoring fees, advisory fees, directors’ fees, commitment fees, closing fees, amendment fees, breakup fees and other similar fees. An amount equal to each PE Asia III limited partner’s share of 50% of all such fees other than directors’ fees and 100% of directors’ fees paid by portfolio companies that are received by the Adviser, the PE Asia III General Partner or any of the investment professionals dedicated to the PE Asia III Funds (as described in the confidential offering memorandum of the PE Asia III Fund), net of any unreimbursed related expenses incurred by the Adviser or its affiliates or representatives in connection with unconsummated transactions, will generally be applied to reduce the management fee otherwise payable by such limited partner. All such fees will first be allocated among the applicable PE Asia III Fund and any other investors. Fees may be deducted from the PE Asia III Funds’ assets as, and to the extent, set forth in the limited partnership agreements of the PE Asia III Funds (the “PE Asia III Partnership Agreements”). Carried Interest The PE Asia III General Partner is generally entitled to receive carried interest with respect to each PE Asia III limited partner equal to 20% (0-10% in the case of certain PE Asia III limited partners who are employees of Morgan Stanley or its affiliates) of such PE Asia III limited partner’s profits from each PE Asia III Fund investment, subject to satisfaction of an 8% internal rate of return, compounded annually, for such investment, previously realized investments and related management fees and expenses (see also Co-Investments below for additional information on the fees and expenses relating to co-investments). Expenses The PE Asia III Funds may also bear certain out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Adviser and/or its affiliates in connection with the services provided to the PE Asia III Funds. The payment of such expenses by the PE Asia III Funds does not represent a source of profit for the Adviser, but rather is a reimbursement of actual costs initially paid by the Adviser (or its affiliates) and subsequently passed through to the PE Asia III Funds. The most common expenses include (i) expenses incurred in connection with identifying, evaluating, structuring and negotiating any potential investment by the PE Asia III Funds and the acquisition, management, holding, sale, proposed sale or valuation of any investments by the PE Asia III Funds (including meals, entertainment and travel expenses incurred by Morgan Stanley and its employees in connection with identifying, negotiating, executing or managing consummated PE Asia III Fund investments or unconsummated PE Asia III Fund investments); and (ii) ordinary administrative expenses, including fees of auditors, attorneys, appraisers and other professionals auditing, accounting, banking and consulting expenses (including expenses paid to the Adviser or to any of its affiliates for services rendered on an arms-length basis in connection with the PE Asia III Funds’ affairs). Item 12 further describes the factors that the Adviser considers in selecting or recommending broker-dealers for client transactions and determining the reasonableness of their compensation (e.g., commissions). Placement Agent Fees Broker-dealers who are the Adviser’s affiliates have acted as placement agents to assist in the placement of a PE Asia III Fund’s interests. Any placement fee paid by an investor was in addition to that investor’s capital commitment. The amount of any placement fee is described in the placement agent’s point of sale letter (or similar disclosure documents). However, the placement agents or distributors may have, in their sole discretion, waived the placement fees paid by an investor, including an investor that is an employee or affiliate of the PE Asia III General Partner and/or the Adviser. ... |

Item 7 – Types of Clients The Adviser provides portfolio management services to pooled investment vehicles. These pooled investment vehicles are not subject to registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). Generally, the Funds’ investors were required to invest a minimum of $10 million (less in the case of limited partners who are employees of Morgan Stanley and its affiliates). Each General Partner reserves the right to waive any minimum investment requirement in its discretion. In addition, Limited Partner interests in a Fund (“Interests”) may be purchased only by certain eligible investors who are “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and “qualified purchasers” for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act. In the case of the Employee Fund, Interests have been offered and sold to investors who are “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act and in accordance with the requirements of an exemptive order under the Investment Company Act received by Morgan Stanley from the SEC in April 2000. In addition to providing advisory services to the Funds, the Adviser or a related person may act as the managing member or the general partner of certain co-investment partnerships. |
