| Fees and Compensation — Form ADV Part 2A (4/2/2026) [Brochure] |
|---|
ITEM 5 – FEES AND COMPENSATION We are generally entitled to management fees and/or performance-based compensation from the Funds. As is generally the case with private equity funds, the governing documents of each Fund provide that such Fund’s management fees will be calculated at an annual rate generally ranging from 1% to 2% of the aggregate amount of capital committed by investors in the Fund. The management fees that we receive from the Funds are generally prorated for any period that is less than a full calendar month and are adjusted for subscriptions and redemptions made during a month, if applicable. We do not receive management fees from certain of the Funds. We are also entitled to receive performance-based compensation from some of the Funds. Such performance-based compensation may be taken on a periodic basis (such as an incentive fee or performance allocation) or only after investors have received an agreed amount of their investments back (such as a carried interest). Performance-based compensation is generally equal to 20% of the increase in an investor’s investment in a Fund. We generally deduct management fees and performance-based compensation from the Funds’ accounts. We do not receive performance-based compensation from certain of the Funds. The specific terms of our compensation arrangements with each of the Funds can be found in the applicable Fund’s offering documents, which are provided to potential investors. Our compensation arrangements may not be amended to provide the Adviser the potential for additional compensation without investor approval. The Adviser may reduce its compensation package without investor approval, so long as such action does not otherwise adversely affect the investor. The description above represents our typical compensation rates. However, we may enter into negotiated agreements with one or more investors which provide for the waiver or modification of certain terms of the offering of interests in a Fund, including fees otherwise applicable to such investors’ interests. Any such waivers do not adversely affect the investment returns of the other investors in a Fund. In addition to management fees and, if applicable, performance-based compensation, the Funds are also subject to other expenses such as administrative, legal, accounting, compliance, custodial and audit expenses and costs, fees, liabilities, taxes and expenses relating to or arising from the investment of assets, third-party compliance products and services, borrowing, financing or settlement arrangements, analysis and research of investments or potential investments (including subscriptions, publications or related services), risk management and due diligence associated with the development and maintenance of the portfolios, regulatory filings, investor relations and independent directors’ fees. Details regarding the expenses borne by each of the Funds are available in the respective Funds’ offering documents, which are provided to potential investors. Certain investors, including seed investors and persons associated or formerly associated with Sciens and members of their families, as well as certain friends of such persons, may invest in the Funds on a non-fee- paying basis or at fee rates that are lower than those charged to other investors in the Funds, in our discretion. Monitoring Fees (including all directors fees paid in the form of stock options or equity grants), transaction fees and break-up fees relating to Portfolio Investments and attributable to the Fund’s commitment to interests therein (based on its pro rata commitment to of such Portfolio Investments) that are received by the General Partner or any of its Affiliates, net of applicable expenses (without duplication) (“Offset Fees”) shall be applied to reduce any unpaid future Management Fees payable by the Fund to the Adviser for the calendar year in which such Offset Fees were received. Offset Fees that are applied to reduce any unpaid future Management Fees payable shall be allocated pro rata based on the capital commitments of the limited partners in a Fund and any limited partners or investors in any parallel fund. Prospective investors must refer to the detailed information found in each Fund’s governing fund documents for specific information about the fees that may be earned by Sciens and the fees and expenses potentially charged to the Funds. |
