| Fees and Compensation — Form ADV Part 2A (3/26/2026) [Brochure] |
|---|
Item 5 – Fees and Compensation RIC and its affiliated General Partners receive fees and compensation in exchange for providing investment advisory services to the Funds, including management fees, carried interest, additional compensation in connection with management services performed for the portfolio companies of the Funds and reimbursements from portfolio companies for certain expenses advanced on their behalf. The Funds are also responsible for bearing certain expenses as detailed below and in each Fund’s Governing Documents. Differences exist from Fund to Fund, and certain Funds do not charge certain fees, compensation or expenses that other Funds charge, or charge them in different amounts. RIC’s management fees, carried interest and other compensation payable to RIC and its Funds’ General Partners are determined by RIC at the time of the establishment of the relevant Fund and are negotiated with participating limited partners and/or co-investors prior to making their investment. Once the relevant Fund has been established and commenced operations, such fees and compensation are generally not negotiable. At its discretion, RIC is permitted to waive all or a portion of its management fee for certain Funds and for certain limited partners, including principals and employees of RIC and their respective family and Operating Advisors. The specific manner in which RIC charges fees is established in the relevant Fund’s Governing Documents. Limited partners should refer to the applicable Governing Documents for a complete understanding of how RIC is compensated for its advisory services. The information contained herein is a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by such documents. Management Fees Fund I Fund I no longer pays management fees. The receipt of any portfolio company renumeration is shared with Fund I on a 50/50 basis. Fund II Fund II no longer pays management fees. The receipt of any portfolio company renumeration is shared with Fund II on a 50/50 basis. Fund III and Fund IV Management fees for Fund III and Fund IV are calculated with respect to each limited partner (other than those whose fees are waived by the General Partner in its sole discretion) and payable quarterly in advance, beginning as of the Fund III and Fund IV initial closing date, in an amount equal to 2.25% and 2%, respectively, per annum of the capital commitment of such limited partner. After the earliest to occur of: (i) the permanent expiration or termination of the investment period, (ii) the date RIC, the General Partner or an affiliate begins to accrue management fees from a successor fund, and (iii) the date that Fund III/Fund IV is fully invested or committed in the good faith judgment of the General Partner and including reserves for expenses, obligations, liabilities and follow-on investments, the management fee with respect to each limited partner will be reduced in Fund III and maintained in Fund IV at 2% per annum of such limited partner’s aggregate capital contributions in respect of portfolio investments, less such limited partner’s share (based on relative capital commitments) of (x) the cost of all portfolio securities/investments that have been fully realized and disposed of, (y) the cost basis of portfolio investments that have been written off, and (z) the cost basis of a portfolio investment that has been written down due to a permanent impairment of value, in each case, as determined on the first day of the period with respect to which a determination is being made. Management fees for Fund III/Fund IV will be paid until the one-year anniversary of the expiration of the Fund’s term, unless otherwise approved by the Fund’s advisory board pursuant to the Governing Documents. Generally, limited partners participating in a subsequent closing after the initial closing of the Fund are responsible for paying the management fee as of the date of the initial closing of such Fund, plus interest, as applicable. In addition, management fees are payable during term extensions unless otherwise notified to limited partners. The amount of management fees generally will not correspond with fluctuations in the net asset value of individual investments, aggregate investments in a portfolio company or of a Fund, including following the stepdown date, and will not be reduced in connection with any write-downs, except in the case of investments that have been permanently written down. Permanent write-down determinations are made in the discretion of the valuation committee in accordance with the relevant Governing Documents and the Firm’s valuation policy. Except where the Governing Documents expressly provide to the contrary, management fees will not be reduced (in whole or in part) in the case of partial distributions, partial sales, reorganizations, restructurings, roll-over investments or similar transactions, in each case in circumstances that do not result in the complete disposition of the relevant Fund’s interest therein, and even in cases where the value of such Fund’s investment or ownership percentage in a portfolio company has been reduced as a result of such transaction. In addition, management fees generally will not be reimbursed or refunded under the Governing Documents in the event of realizations, dispositions or partial write-downs that occur partway through the relevant calculation period. Further, where there has been a partial disposition or permanent write- down of a Fund’s investment and the fair market value of the investment following such event exceeds the total amount of the Fund’s investment contributions relating to the investment, the Governing Documents do not require management fees after the stepdown date to be reduced. In most circumstances, the post step-down management fee base will include capitalized transaction specific fees and expenses of unrealized investments, including transaction fees charged by RIC in connection ... |

Item 7 – Types of Clients RIC provides portfolio management services to its clients, which consist of the Main Funds and SPVs. The Funds and SPVs generally limit their respective limited partners to: (i) “accredited investors” as defined in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); and (ii) “qualified purchasers” or “knowledgeable employees,” each as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”); or (iii) “qualified clients” as defined in the Advisers Act. As Fund I was formed prior to RIC’s registration with the SEC, not all limited partners in Fund I are qualified clients. The Funds are not registered or required to be registered under the Investment Company Act; the Funds are not made available to the general public; their securities are not registered or required to be registered under the Securities Act; and Fund interests are privately placed to qualified investors. Qualified investors include individuals or entities to which Fund interests are permitted to be sold, which generally includes (i) in the United States, people or organizations who meet certain net worth, income and/or financial sophistication requirements as described above or (ii) in other countries, as permitted by the relevant securities laws in such jurisdiction and in compliance with any foreign offering provisions applicable to RIC and/or the Funds. Limited partners must also meet certain suitability and net worth qualifications prior to making an investment in the Funds. Each Fund’s Governing Documents specifies a minimum contribution from a limited partner; however, commitments less than these minimums were accepted at the sole discretion of each Fund’s General Partner. Limited partners in the Funds typically include high net worth investors, other investment advisers, university endowments and others. In addition, RIC principals, employees, Operating Advisors, friends and family of the foregoing and other persons associated with RIC and/or its affiliates have made capital contributions to the Funds or are direct investors in a portfolio company and/or SPV. On occasion, RIC offers co-investment opportunities for certain limited partners and third-party investors to invest alongside a Fund in certain Fund portfolio companies. As mentioned above in Item 4, co-investments have been structured either as (i) an SPV or (ii) a direct investment by certain investors into a portfolio company or its holding or operating company. When structured as an SPV, RIC considers the investment to be a Fund client, identifies the Fund in its Form ADV Part 1, Schedule D, Section 7.B.(1), obtains an audit for the SPV and includes the amount of assets of such SPV in the Firm’s regulatory assets under management. In the case of direct co-investments, RIC does not consider the investment to be a Fund or an SPV, does not act as the investment manager to the co-investment portion of the investment, does not charge management fees or carried interest to the investment, does not have custody of the investment or include the amount of assets of the co- investment in the Firm’s regulatory assets under management. In such direct co-investment opportunities, RIC will perform management, advisory and other services for the portfolio companies in which these co-investors invest, generally at no additional cost to such co-investors except portfolio company fees and expenses (which such fees and expenses are recorded at the portfolio company). Opportunities to participate in co-investment transactions arise when RIC has the opportunity for an investment in an existing or prospective portfolio company and RIC determines that (i) an investment requires additional capital, (ii) all or a portion of the applicable opportunity is not required to be offered to a Fund, (iii) the full investment opportunity is not appropriate for a Fund, whether due to concentration restrictions contained in the Fund’s Governing Documents or otherwise or (iv) RIC believes the Fund will benefit from the participation of the co-investor(s). RIC will select which limited partners or third-party investors are permitted to co-invest in a particular portfolio company based on various factors, including the sophistication of the investor, the amount of a limited partner’s investment in a Fund, the ability of the investor to fund and complete the investment on a timely basis, provisions in side letters and for strategic or other reasons as more fully described in the applicable Fund’s Governing Documents or in RIC’s policies and procedures on co-investment. RIC is not obligated to make co-investment opportunities available to any particular limited partner and, subject to any restrictions contained in the Governing Documents (including any side letter or other negotiated terms), in general no limited partner has a right to participate in any co-investment opportunity. Portfolio company management, strategic, financial and other institutional investors participating directly in a transaction are not considered co-investors and will not be subject to RIC’s co-investment policy or co-investment expense sharing considerations. Additionally, certain individuals who source transactions or provide financing have in the past and are expected in the future to negotiate co-investment rights or co-investment priority rights as a component of their compensation or other arrangements with the relevant Fund(s). RIC’s exercise of discretion in allocating co-investment opportunities often will not always result in proportional allocations among co-investors and such allocations can be more or less advantageous to some co-investors relative to other co-investors. When a co-investment opportunity has been offered, the size of the investment opportunity otherwise available to RIC’s Fund(s) is expected to be less than it would otherwise have been without the inclusion of co-investors. ... |
