| Fees and Compensation — Form ADV Part 2A (3/23/2026) [Brochure] |
|---|
Item 5 – Fees and Compensation Wynnchurch and its affiliated General Partners receive fees and compensation in exchange for advisory services provided to the Funds, including management fees, carried interest, additional compensation in connection with management and other services performed for 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. The following is a general description of fees, compensation and expenses of the Funds. Limited partners should refer to the Governing Documents of the applicable Fund for a complete understanding of how Wynnchurch 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 Each General Partner charges the Fund a management fee, generally 2% per annum of non-affiliated limited partner capital commitments. Specifically, management fees are initially charged at 2% of each non-affiliated limited partner’s committed capital for the period of time during which each Fund is making investments; thereafter, the management fee is equal to 2% of each non-affiliated limited partner’s invested contributions with respect to investments that have not been disposed of less the aggregate amount of any permanent write-downs with respect to each investment that has not been disposed of subject to the terms of each Fund’s LPA. A Fund’s borrowings are generally taken into account for purposes of calculating the management fee, as provided in each Fund’s Governing Documents. 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 (and for Fund VI, permanently written down for U.S. federal income tax purposes). 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 (e.g., those resulting from a dividend recapitalization), 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 the General Partner in connection with the investment, which poses a conflict of interest in that the inclusion of such fees and expenses results in a higher management fee than if such transaction fees and expenses were not capitalized into the asset base. All management fees were negotiated with limited partners during the fundraising period of the applicable Fund and are not subject to negotiation thereafter. Generally, limited partners participating in a subsequent closing after the initial closing of a 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 and during Fund liquidations unless otherwise notified to limited partners. The General Partners are permitted, in their sole discretion, to reduce or waive all or a portion of the management fee and management fees can differ from one Fund to another, as well as among limited partners in the same Fund. Specifically, management fees are waived for Wynnchurch employees (including employees investing through a General Partner), affiliates, Operations Group members and their respective families investing in a Fund (although in each case, these limited partners generally pay their pro rata share of certain Fund expenses). Similarly, limited partners in Executive Fund IV do not pay a management fee (although such limited partners pay their pro rata share of certain expenses). As per the Governing Documents of certain Funds, the relevant General Partner is permitted to waive, defer, or reduce all or a portion of the management fee otherwise required to contribute to such Fund as partial satisfaction of the commitment of the General Partner and certain employees and affiliates of Wynnchurch to invest in and alongside the Fund. Certain waived portions of the management fee are treated by the Governing Documents as deemed capital contributions by the relevant General Partner, which is effectively invested in the relevant Fund on the General Partner’s behalf and operates ... |

Item 7 – Types of Clients Wynnchurch provides portfolio management services to its clients, which are private funds. Each of the Funds limit its respective limited partners to persons who are both “accredited investors” as defined in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and either “qualified purchasers” or “knowledgeable employees” each as defined in the Investment Company Act. The Funds are not registered or required to be registered under the Investment Company Act; their securities are not registered or required to be registered under the Securities Act; they are not made available to the general public; 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 Wynnchurch and/or the Funds. The Funds generally require minimum investment amounts varying from $5.0 million to $20.0 million for limited partner investment, although the General Partners have accepted commitments under such minimum amounts in their sole discretion. Limited partners in the Funds include a broad range of investors, including, among others, high net worth individuals, corporate pension and profit-sharing plans, charitable institutions, fund of funds, foundations, endowments, municipalities, trust programs, foreign funds and other U.S. and international institutions and typically include, directly or indirectly, principals and employees of Wynnchurch as well as operating partners, Operations Group members and members of their respective families. On occasion, Wynnchurch offers co-investment opportunities for certain investors to invest alongside a Fund in certain portfolio companies. As referenced in Item 4 above, co-investments have been structured either as (i) a separate Fund (such as Executive Fund IV) or (ii) a direct investment by certain investors into a portfolio company or its holding or operating company. When structured as a Fund, Wynnchurch 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 Fund, reserves the option to assess a management fee and carried interest on such Fund and includes the amount of assets of such Fund in the Firm’s regulatory assets under management. In the case of direct co-investments, Wynnchurch does not consider the investment to be a Fund or a client, 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, Wynnchurch will perform management, advisory and other services for the portfolio companies in which these co-investors invest, generally at no cost to such co-investors except portfolio company fees and expenses (which such fees and expenses are recorded at the portfolio company). With the exclusion of Executive Fund IV (which was formed to invest alongside Fund IV in all Fund investments), co-investment opportunities arise when Wynnchurch has the opportunity for an investment in an existing or prospective portfolio company and determines in its sole discretion that all or a portion of the applicable opportunity is not required to be offered to, or is not appropriate for, a Fund. Specifically, opportunities to participate in co-investment transactions arise when Wynnchurch has the opportunity for an investment in an existing or prospective portfolio company and Wynnchurch 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) Wynnchurch believes the Fund will benefit from the participation of the co-investor(s). Wynnchurch will select the investors that are permitted to co-invest in a particular portfolio company in its sole discretion based on various factors, including those that are specified in the Fund Governing Documents, side letter provisions and in its policies on investment allocation and co-investments. Subject to any restrictions contained in the Governing Documents of the relevant Fund or any side letter or other terms negotiated with respect to such Fund, in general no investor has a right to participate in any co-investment opportunity. While one or more limited partners in the Funds are on occasion invited to co-invest in a Fund’s portfolio companies, Wynnchurch is authorized in its sole discretion to offer any or all of a co-investment opportunity to investors that are not limited partners in the Funds. Wynnchurch’s exercise of discretion in allocating co-investment opportunities often will not always result in proportional allocations among such co-investors and such allocations can be more or less advantageous to some co-investors relative to other co-investors. In certain cases, determinations to allocate such amounts or investment opportunities to vendors or service providers will be made prior to the determination of the availability of opportunity for other co-investors, and as such generally will decrease the amount of co-investment opportunities available. When co- investment opportunities are permitted, it is possible that the size of the investment opportunity ... |
