Notes to financial statements
December 31, 20XX
1. Organization
[This note should be tailored to the Fund’s specific nature of operations:] Private Equity, L.P. (the Fund),
a Delaware investment limited partnership, commenced operations on [Month, Date, Year]. The Fund was
organized to [Include a description of the Fund’s investment objectives]. The Fund is managed by General
Partner, LLC (the General Partner) and Investment Manager, LLC (the Investment Manager). [If applicable:] The
Investment Manager is registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission as an investment
adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.
The Fund commenced on [Month, Date, Year] and will expire on [Month, Date, Year] but may be extended
for up to two consecutive one-year periods or dissolved or terminated prior to expiration in accordance with the
Limited Partnership Agreement (the Agreement). The Fund’s commitment period ended on [Month, Date, Year].
2. Summary of significant accounting policies

The significant accounting policies followed by the Fund are:
Basis of presentation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP). The Fund is an investment company and follows the accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial
Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 946, Financial Services—
Investment Companies.
Principles of consolidation
[If applicable for consolidated financial statements. If consolidated financial statements are presented,
then “financial statements” should be referred to as “consolidated financial statements” throughout:]
[If applicable:] The Fund consolidates entities that are not variable interest entities (VIEs) when it has a controlling
financial interest as a result of majority voting control and it is not required to measure the entities at fair value
in accordance with Topic 946. The Fund has consolidated the accounts of its wholly owned and controlled
subsidiary, JS Blocker Corp., which is not a VIE. JS Blocker Corp. is an investment company wholly owned by the
Fund, established for the general purpose of executing specific investment transactions on behalf of the Fund.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements.
[If applicable:] The Fund consolidates variable interest entities for which it is the primary beneficiary, generally as a
result of having the power to make the decisions that most significantly affect each entity’s economic performance
and holding a variable interest that obligates the Fund to absorb losses that could potentially be significant to each
entity and/or entitles the Fund to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to each entity, when it is not
required to measure the entities at fair value in accordance with Topic 946. Currently, the Fund does not hold variable
interests in any VIEs that it is not required to measure at fair value in accordance with Topic 946.
Use of estimates
Preparing financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and
assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including the fair value of investments,
and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
December 31, 20XX
2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash represents cash deposits held at financial institutions. Cash equivalents include short‑term highly liquid
investments of sufficient credit quality that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have
original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, plus accrued interest, which
approximates fair value. Cash equivalents are held for meeting short-term liquidity requirements, rather than for
investment purposes. Cash and cash equivalents are held at major financial institutions and are subject to credit
risk to the extent those balances exceed applicable FDIC or SIPC limitations.
Investment transactions and related investment income

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains and losses on investment
transactions are determined using cost calculated on [a specific identification] [an average cost] basis.
Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date, and interest is recognized on an accrual basis. [If applicable:]
Distributions that represent returns of capital in excess of cumulative profits and losses are credited to
investment cost rather than investment income. [If applicable:] Discounts and premiums to the face amount
of debt securities are accreted and amortized using the effective interest rate method over the lives of the
respective debt securities. [If applicable:] Discounts to the face amount of debt securities are not accreted and
amortized to the extent that interest income is not expected to be realized. [If applicable:] Withholding taxes on
foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable country’s
tax rules and rates.
Fair value – hierarchy of fair value inputs
The Fund determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or
liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair
value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable
inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund is able
to access.
Level 2 – Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
These inputs may include: (a) quoted prices for similar assets in active markets; (b) quoted prices for identical or
similar assets in markets that are not active; (c) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for
the asset; or (d) inputs derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation
or other means.
Level 3 – Inputs that are unobservable and significant to the entire fair value measurement.
[Include the following language for funds early adopting ASU 2015-07. See Appendix C for additional
guidance.] Investments in private investment companies measured using net asset value as a practical
expedient are not categorized within the fair value hierarchy.
The availability of valuation techniques and observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and
are affected by a wide variety of factors, including the type of investment, whether the investment is new
and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the
transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable
in the market, determining fair value requires more judgment. Because of the inherent uncertainty of
valuation, estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had
a ready market for the investments existed. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Fund in
determining fair value is greatest for investments categorized in Level 3.
December 31, 20XX

Fair value – hierarchy of fair value inputs (continued)
In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the
fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value
hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Fair value – valuation techniques and inputs

[The following includes examples of valuation techniques and inputs used by investment companies.
These examples do not include all possible investment types or valuation techniques and inputs that may
apply to a particular type of investment. A Fund’s disclosures should be tailored to describe the valuation
techniques and inputs used under the specific facts and circumstances of the Fund, including the extent
to which valuations are obtained from third-party pricing services or broker quotations.]
When determining fair value, the Fund uses valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs
and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The valuation techniques used by the Fund to determine fair value
are consistent with the market or income approaches.
The market approach includes valuation techniques that use prices and other relevant information generated
by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, liabilities, or a group of assets and liabilities.
The Fund generally uses the market approach to value [Include categories of investments valued using a
market approach as applicable, such as the following:] exchange-traded securities and exchange-traded
derivatives.
[Alternative language for the market approach specific to nonmarketable or privately held investments:]
The market approach includes valuation techniques that use observable market data (e.g., current trading
and/or acquisition multiples) of comparable companies and applying the data to key financial metrics of the
investment. The comparability (as measured by size, growth profile, and geographic concentration, among
other factors) of the identified set of comparable companies to the investment is considered in applying
the market approach. The Fund generally uses the market approach to value [Include other categories of
investments as applicable such as:] equity investments in private operating companies.
The income approach includes valuation techniques that measure the present value of anticipated future
economic benefits (i.e., net cash flows). The estimated net cash flows are forecast over the expected
remaining economic life and discounted to present value using a discount rate commensurate with the level
of risk associated with the expected cash flows. The Fund generally uses the income approach to [Include
categories of investments valued using an income approach as applicable, such as:] value equity and debt
investments in private operating companies.
Marketable equity securities

The Fund values equity securities that are traded on a national securities exchange at their last reported sales
price. The Fund generally values equity securities traded in the over-the-counter (OTC) markets and listed
securities for which no sale was reported on that date at [the price within the bid-ask spread that best
represents fair value] [their last reported bid price if held long, and last reported ask price if sold short].
To the extent that equity securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are
categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Equity securities traded on inactive markets or valued by
reference to similar instruments are generally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
December 31, 20XX

Private operating companies
Private operating companies may consist of common stock, preferred stock, and debt investments in privately
owned portfolio companies. The transaction price, excluding transaction costs, is typically the Fund’s best
estimate of fair value at acquisition. At each subsequent measurement date, the Fund reviews the valuation of
each investment and records adjustments as necessary to reflect the expected exit value of the investment
under current market conditions. Ongoing reviews by the Fund’s management are based on an assessment of
the type of investment, the stage in the life cycle of the portfolio company, and trends in the performance and
credit profile of each portfolio company as of the measurement date.
The [Fund values] [Fund uses an independent pricing service to value] private operating companies
using an income approach or a market approach. In certain instances, the Fund may use multiple valuation
approaches for a particular investment and estimate its fair value based on a weighted average or a selected
outcome within a range of multiple valuation results. The decision to use a valuation approach will depend on
the investment type and the information available.
When applying valuation techniques used to determine fair value, the Fund assumes a reasonable period of time
for estimating cash flows and considers the financial condition and operating results of the portfolio company,
the nature of the investment, restrictions on marketability, market conditions, foreign currency exposures, and
other factors. When determining the fair value of investments, the Fund exercises significant judgment and
uses the best information available as of the measurement date. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations,
the fair values reflected in the financial statements as of the measurement date may differ from: (1) values that
would have been used had a readily available market existed for those investments and (2) the values that may
ultimately be realized.
[Examples of income approach input technique disclosures:] Inputs used under an income approach may
include annual projected cash flows for each investment through their expected remaining economic life
discounted to present value using appropriate risk-adjusted discount rates. These cash flow assumptions may
be probability-weighted to reflect the risks associated with achieving expected performance levels across
various business scenarios. Inputs used under an income approach may include an assessment of the credit
profile of the portfolio company as of the measurement date, the operating performance of the portfolio
company, trends in the liquidity and financial leverage ratios as of the measurement date, and an assessment
of the portfolio company’s business enterprise value, liquidation value, and debt repayment capacity of each
subject debt investment. In addition, inputs may include an assessment of potential yield adjustments for
each debt investment based on trends in the credit profile of the portfolio company and trends in the interest
rate environment as of the measurement date.
[Examples of market approach input technique disclosures:] Inputs used under a market approach may
include valuation multiples applied to corresponding performance metrics, such as earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA), revenue or net earnings. The selected valuation multiples
were estimated through a comparative analysis of the performance and characteristics of each investment
within a range of comparable companies or transactions in the observable marketplace. In addition, recent
merger and acquisition transactions of comparable companies may be used as a basis to develop implied
valuation multiples. Investment valuations using the market approach may also consider factors such as
liquidity, credit, and market risk factors of the portfolio company.
December 31, 20XX

Private operating companies (continued)
[Examples of probability-weighted expected return method disclosures:] The probability-weighted
expected return method is based on an estimate of expected fair value as analyzed through various liquidity
scenarios. Fair value is determined for a given scenario at the time of the future liquidity event and discounted
back to the valuation date using a risk-adjusted discount rate. To determine fair value, the present values
under each scenario are weighted based on the expected probability of each scenario occurring.
[Examples of option pricing model disclosures:] The option pricing model treats a portfolio company’s
common stock and preferred stock as call options on the enterprise or equity value of the portfolio company,
with exercise or strike prices based on the characteristics of each series or class of equity in the portfolio
company’s capital structure (e.g., the liquidation preference of a given series of preferred stock). This method
is sensitive to certain key assumptions, such as volatility and time to exit, that are unobservable.
Investments in private operating companies are generally included in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Restricted securities of public companies

Restricted securities of public companies cannot be offered for sale to the public until the issuer complies with
certain statutory requirements. The Fund generally values restricted securities of public companies at a discount
to similar publicly traded companies to the extent the restriction is specific to the security. The Fund considers
the type and duration of the restriction, but in no event does the valuation exceed the listed price on any major
securities exchange.
Restricted securities of public companies are generally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
However, to the extent that significant inputs used to determine liquidity discounts are unobservable, restricted
securities in public companies may be categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Warrants
The Fund values warrants that are traded on an exchange at their last reported sales price. The Fund values OTC
or non-traded warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which takes into account the contract
terms (including the strike price and contract maturity) and multiple inputs (including time value, volatility,
equity prices, interest rates, and currency rates). Warrants that are traded on an exchange in an active market
are generally classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Warrants that are traded on the OTC market are
generally classified in Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Private investment companies

The Fund values private investment companies using the net asset values provided by the underlying private
investment companies as a practical expedient. The Fund applies the practical expedient to private investment
companies on an investment-by-investment basis, and consistently with the Fund’s entire position in a
particular investment, unless it is probable that the Fund will sell a portion of an investment at an amount
different from the net asset value (NAV) of the investment. [See Appendix A for additional disclosures if the
Fund had private investment companies that were not valued using NAV as a practical expedient.]
December 31, 20XX

Private investment companies (continued)
Private investment companies are classified in Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy. In determining the
level, the Fund considers the length of time until the investment is redeemable, including notice and
lock-up periods or any other restriction on the disposition of the investment. The Fund also considers the
nature of the portfolios of the underlying private investment companies and their ability to liquidate their
underlying investments. If the Fund can redeem its investment at the reported net asset valuation as of
the measurement date, or in the near term, the investment is generally included in Level 2 of the fair value
hierarchy. [Note: This paragraph does not apply to investments valued using NAV as a practical expedient
for funds early adopting ASU 2015-07. See Appendix C for additional guidance.]
If the Fund does not know when it can redeem the investment or it cannot redeem its investment in the near
term, the investment is included in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. In addition, investments that are not
valued using the practical expedient are included in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. [Note: This paragraph
does not apply to investments valued using NAV as a practical expedient for funds early adopting ASU
2015-07. See Appendix A and Appendix C for additional guidance.]
Special-purpose vehicles
Special-purpose vehicles (SPVs) consist of [common stock, limited partnership interests, etc.] in
unconsolidated entities that invest directly or indirectly in private equity or debt securities, real estate, or
intangible property. The valuation of the Fund’s investments in an SPV may depend on whether the SPV is
required to be accounted for as an investment company under GAAP.
If a SPV is accounted for as an investment company, the Fund generally values the investment, as a practical
expedient, using the NAV provided by the SPV when the NAV is calculated in a manner consistent with GAAP
for investment companies. The Fund applies the practical expedient to eligible SPVs on an investment-by-
investment basis and consistently with the Fund’s entire position in a particular investment, unless it is probable
that the Fund will sell a portion of an investment at an amount different from the NAV of the investment.
If a SPV is not accounted for as an investment company, the SPV may be valued in its entirety using an
income approach or a market approach. [See Investments in Private Operating Companies for examples
of valuation techniques and inputs that may apply to investments in SPVs.] In certain instances, a SPV
may be valued based on an evaluation of the net assets of the SPV, whereby the assets and liabilities of the
SPV are valued based on each underlying investment within the SPV, incorporating valuations that consider
financing and sales transactions with third parties, expected cash flows, and market-based information
including comparable transactions and performance multiples, among other factors.
SPVs are generally categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. [Note: This does not apply if the SPV is
an investment company and can be redeemed in the near term or to investments in SPVs valued using
NAV as a practical expedient for funds early adopting ASU 2015-07. See Appendix C.]
Contingent consideration
[If applicable:] The Fund recognizes contingent consideration from the sale of liquidated investments
as a financial asset measured at fair value.
Or:
[If applicable:] The Fund recognizes contingent consideration from the sale of liquidated investments
when the amount of the contingent consideration becomes realized or realizable.
December 31, 20XX

Fair value of financial instruments
[Include if the fund is subject to disclosures of fair values of financial instruments under section 825-
10-50:] The fair value of certain of the Fund’s financial instruments carried at cost, including [list specific
receivables and payables], approximates the carrying amounts presented in the statement of assets and
liabilities, due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Foreign currency translation

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US dollar amounts at the date of
valuation. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies, including purchases and sales of investments, and
income and expenses, are translated into US dollar amounts on the date of those transactions. Adjustments
arising from foreign currency transactions are reflected in the statement of operations.
[Include if the fund does not separately report foreign currency exchange effects from realized and
unrealized gains and losses from investments:]
The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from the effect of changes in foreign
exchange rates on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of investments held.
Those fluctuations are included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments in the statement
of operations.
Reported net realized gain (loss) from foreign currency transactions arises from sales of foreign currencies,
currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and
the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the
Fund’s books and the US dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net change in unrealized
gains and losses on translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies arises from changes
in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at the end of the period, resulting
from changes in exchange rates.
[Include if the fund separately reports foreign currency exchange effects from realized and unrealized
gains and losses from investments:]
The Fund isolates that portion of the results of operations arising from the effect of changes in foreign
exchange rates on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of investments held.
Reported net realized gain (loss) from foreign currency transactions arises from sales of portfolio securities,
sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized
between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts
of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the US dollar equivalent
of the amounts actually received or paid. Net change in unrealized gains and losses on translation of assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies arises from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, including
investments in securities at the end of the period, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
December 31, 20XX

[The following example includes required disclosures when a Fund has incurred a liability for unrecognized
tax benefits. A Fund may tailor its disclosures where appropriate if it has not incurred a liability for
unrecognized tax benefits.]
Income taxes
The Fund does not record a provision for US federal, state, or local income taxes, because the partners report
their share of the Fund’s income or loss on their income tax returns. [If applicable:] However, certain US
dividend income and interest income may be subject to a maximum 30% withholding tax for limited partners
that are foreign entities or foreign individuals. [If applicable:] Further, certain non-US dividend income and
interest income may be subject to a tax at prevailing treaty or standard withholding rates with the applicable
country or local jurisdiction. The Fund files an income tax return in the US federal jurisdiction and may file
income tax returns in various US states [If applicable:] and foreign jurisdictions. Generally, the Fund is
subject to income tax examinations by [Federal] [list applicable states] [Foreign jurisdictions] for the years
after 20XX.
The Fund is required to determine whether its tax positions are more likely than not to be sustained upon
examination by the applicable taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions not
deemed to meet a more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year.
At December 31, 20XX, the Fund recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $XXX,000 related to its
tax positions. [Include a description of the uncertainty in tax positions, for example, investment gains
from certain foreign jurisdictions where the Fund has elected not to file an income tax return.]
[The following are examples that may apply to the Fund’s assessment of possible changes in
unrecognized tax benefits over the next 12 months:]
1. The Fund has determined that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of the unrecognized tax benefits
will [increase] [decrease] by approximately [Include an amount or a range of the reasonably possible
changes in unrecognized tax benefits] within the next 12 months as a result of [Describe the nature of
events that can cause a significant change in unrecognized tax benefits, including but not limited to,
settlements, expiration of statutes of limitations, changes in tax law, and new authoritative rulings].
2. The Fund has determined that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of the unrecognized tax
benefits will [increase] [decrease] within the next 12 months as a result of [Describe the nature of
events that can cause a significant change in unrecognized tax benefits, including but not limited to,
settlements, expiration of statutes of limitations, changes in tax law, and new authoritative rulings].
Until formal resolutions are reached between the Fund and tax authorities, the amount of a possible ultimate
settlement with respect to the effect on unrecognized tax benefits is not readily determinable.
3. The Fund does not expect that its assessment related to unrecognized tax benefits will materially change
over the next 12 months. However, the Fund’s conclusions may be subject to review and adjustment at a
later date based on factors including, but not limited to, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions;
compliance with US federal, US state, and foreign tax laws; and changes in the administrative practices and
precedents of the relevant taxing authorities.
The Fund recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and
other expenses, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 20XX, the Fund recognized $XX,XXX and
$XXX,XXX, respectively, related to interest and penalties. At December 31, 20XX, the Fund accrued $XX,XXX
and $XX,XXX, respectively, for the payment of interest and penalties.
December 31, 20XX

[Include if the Fund currently engages in activities that more likely than not will result in federal
uncertain tax positions at the Fund level upon the effectiveness of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015:]
The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 provides that any tax adjustments resulting from partnership audits will
generally be determined, as well as any resulting tax, interest, and penalties collected, at the partnership level
for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017. The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 allows a partnership to
elect to apply these provisions to any return of the partnership filed for partnership taxable years beginning
after the date of the enactment, November 2, 2015. The Fund does not intend to elect to apply these
provisions for any tax return filed for partnership taxable years beginning before January 1, 2018.
Organization costs
Organization costs are expensed as incurred.
Syndication costs
Syndication costs represent costs incurred in connection with the syndication of limited partnership interests.
These costs are reflected as a direct reduction of partners’ capital. Approximately $150,000 was incurred for
syndication costs in the initial year of the Fund.
Due diligence costs and broken deal costs

Costs and expenses incurred related to sourcing, investigating, identifying, analyzing, and pursuing potential
portfolio investments are expensed as incurred, with amounts included in due diligence costs and broken
deal costs in the statement of operations.
December 31, 20XX
3. Fair value measurements

Fair value hierarchy
The Fund’s assets recorded at fair value have been categorized based on a fair value hierarchy as described in
the Fund’s significant accounting policies in Note 2. The following table presents information about the Fund’s
assets measured at fair value as of December 31, 20XX:
(in thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 (Note 1) Total

Common stock $ 270,500 $ — $ 85,500 $ 356,000
Preferred stock — — 400,290 400,290

Contingent consideration — — 100 100
Total investments, at fair value $ 270,500 $ — $ 510,140 $ 780,640

(Note 1): The number of classes may need to be greater for fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, because
those measurements have a greater degree of uncertainty and subjectivity. Determining appropriate classes of assets and liabilities for
which disclosures about fair value measurements should be provided requires judgment.

[If a portion of Level 3 investments did not have internally developed unobservable inputs, include language
to reconcile the difference, such as the following, if not included in the preceding table:] Certain of the Fund’s
Level 3 investments have been valued using unadjusted third-party transactions and quotations [If applicable:] or
the unadjusted NAV of investments in private investment companies. As a result, fair value assets of approximately
$152,500,000 have been excluded from the preceding table. (It should be noted that a reporting entity must
disclose quantitative unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement and are
reasonably available to the reporting entity.)
December 31, 20XX
3. Fair value measurements (continued)

[Consider including the following language if not already addressed in the preceding Fair Value –
Valuation Techniques and Inputs section:] The Fund’s Level 3 investments have been valued using unadjusted
third‑party transactions and quotations [If applicable:] or the unadjusted NAV of investments in private investment
companies. As a result, there were no unobservable inputs that have been internally developed by the Fund in
determining the fair values of its investments as of December 31, 20XX.
Valuation processes
[This note should be tailored to reflect the Fund’s specific policies and procedures:]
The Fund establishes valuation processes and procedures to ensure that the valuation techniques are fair
and consistent, and valuation inputs are supportable. The Fund designates a Valuation Committee (the
Committee) to oversee the entire valuation process of the Fund’s investments. The Committee comprises
various members of the Investment Manager, including those who are separate from the Fund’s portfolio
management function, and reports to the Fund’s board of directors. The Committee is responsible for
developing the Fund’s written valuation processes and procedures, conducting periodic reviews of the
valuation policies, and evaluating the overall fairness and consistent application of the valuation policies.
The Committee meets on a monthly basis, or more frequently as needed, to determine the valuations of the
Fund’s Level 3 investments. Valuations determined by the Committee are required to be supported by market
data, third-party pricing sources, industry-accepted pricing models, counterparty prices, or other methods the
Committee deems to be appropriate, including the use of internal proprietary pricing models.
The Fund periodically tests its valuations of Level 3 investments by performing backtesting. Backtesting
involves the comparison of sales proceeds of those investments to the most recent fair values reported and, if
necessary, uses the findings to recalibrate its valuation procedures. On [a] [an] [monthly] [quarterly] [annual]
basis, the Fund engages the services of a third-party valuation firm to perform an independent review of the
valuation of the Fund’s Level 3 investments and may adjust its valuations based on the recommendations of the
valuation firm.
[The following paragraph is an example of valuation processes for investments in private investment
companies. This note should be tailored to describe the Fund’s specific policies and procedures:]
The valuations of investments in private investment companies are supported by information received from
the investee funds, such as monthly NAVs, investor reports, and audited financial statements, when available.
If it is probable that the Fund will sell an investment at an amount different from the net asset valuation
or in other situations where the practical expedient is not available, or when the Fund believes alternative
valuation techniques are more appropriate, the Committee may consider other factors, including subscription
and redemption rights, expected discounted cash flows, transactions in the secondary market, bids received
from potential buyers, and overall market conditions, in determining fair value. [Note: This paragraph does
not apply to investments valued using NAV as a practical expedient for funds early adopting ASU 2015-07.
See Appendix C for additional guidance.]
December 31, 20XX
4. Concentration of credit risk

The Fund is subject to credit risk to the extent any financial institution with which it conducts business is
unable to fulfill contracted obligations on its behalf. Management monitors the financial condition of those
financial institutions and does not anticipate any losses from these counterparties.
5. Warrants
The Fund may receive warrants from its portfolio companies upon an investment in the debt or equity of a portfolio
company. The warrants provide the Fund with exposure to and potential gains upon equity appreciation of the
portfolio company’s share price.
The value of a warrant has two components: ‘time value’ and ‘intrinsic value’. A warrant has a limited life and expires
on a certain date. As the expiration date of a warrant approaches, the time value of a warrant will decline. In addition,
if the stock underlying the warrant declines in price, the intrinsic value of an ‘in-the- money’ warrant will decline.
Further, if the price of the stock underlying the warrant does not exceed the strike price of the warrant on the
expiration date, the warrant will expire worthless. As a result, the Fund could potentially lose its entire investment in
a warrant.
The Fund is exposed to counterparty risk from the potential failure of an issuer of warrants to settle its exercised
warrants. The maximum risk of loss from counterparty risk to the Fund is the fair value of the contracts. The Fund
considers the effects of counterparty risk when determining the fair value of its investments in warrants. See
Note 2 for additional information about warrant contracts, including information about realized and unrealized
gains and losses. [Entities should consider the need for disclosure of the volume of warrant activity in
accordance with Section 815-10-50.]
6. Escrow proceeds receivable

During 20XX, the Fund completed the sale of its investment in [insert company names]. A portion of proceeds
from the sale of the portfolio company is held in escrow as recourse for indemnity claims that may arise
under the sale agreement. Amounts held in escrow are held at estimated realizable value, and included in net
realized gain on investments. As of December 31, 20XX, the carrying amount of escrow proceeds receivable
is $85,000.
7. Contingent consideration
Contingent consideration refers to additional amounts from liquidated investments that management believes
may be realized at future dates and/or as future events occur. The terms of these milestones are generally
defined in the sales/liquidation agreements of the liquidated investment. The amount of the actual milestone
payments ultimately received by the Fund may vary depending on whether the future milestone events occur.
[If milestones are significant, consider disclosing key provisions, including amounts and dates expected as
well as probability of receipt.]
December 31, 20XX
8. Notes payable
[If applicable:] On December XX, 20XX, the Fund entered into a $2 million promissory note and security
agreement (the Note) with an unrelated third party to provide short-term liquidity. The Note is secured by certain
investments of the Fund and is due on [insert date]. Interest is accrued at X.X% per annum. At December 31,
20XX, the amount of the note was $100,000.
[If applicable:] On December XX, 20XX, the Fund entered into a line of credit agreement with [insert bank
name], which provides a $10 million credit facility for the Fund and expires on [Date, Year]. The line of credit is
collateralized by certain assets of the Fund. On December XX, 20XX, the Fund drew down $XX million under this
line of credit and repaid the $XX million on January XX, 20XX. Interest accrues at X.X% per annum.
9. Partners’ capital
[The following disclosures are examples of the pertinent rights and privileges of the Fund’s capital structure.
These disclosures should be tailored to reflect the provisions in the Fund’s legal documents:]
Committed Capital
At December 31, 20XX, the Fund has total commitments of $800,000,000, of which $792,000,000 is commited
by limited partners. The General Partner may call capital up to the amount of unfunded commitments to enable
the Fund to make investments, pay fees and expenses, or provide reserves. No limited partner is required
to fund an amount in excess of its unfunded commitment. At December 31, 20XX, the Fund’s unfunded
commitments amounted to $200,000,000, of which $198,000,000 is unfunded from the limited partners.
The ratio of total contributed capital to total committed capital is 75.0%.
Capital contributions
Capital contributions are due from the partners within 10 business days of advance notice from the General
Partner and are subject to certain limitations. Capital contributions receivable represents capital calls that were
past due as of December 31, 20XX, but for which the Fund [received payment in Month Year OR believes
there is substantial evidence of ability and intent to pay within a reasonably short period of time after the
reporting date]. The Fund has certain remedies available for defaulting partners.
[If applicable:] Certain amounts of the General Partner’s capital contributions may be deemed to have been
satisfied by applying a cashless contribution to the General Partner, and as such, the actual amount of the
General Partner’s cash contributions may be less than its pro rata capital commitment amount.
Allocation of partnership profits and losses

Net investment income or loss, net realized gain or loss, and unrealized gain or loss on investments are allocated
to the partners pro rata in proportion to their respective capital contributions; however, the limited partners’
allocation of profits and losses is divided between the limited partners and the General Partner as follows:
I. 100% to all partners until all the partners have received an amount equal to the capital contributed
II. 100% to limited partners until the limited partners have received an aggregate amount equal to an
8% cumulative internal rate of return, compounded annually, on the outstanding balance of the limited
partners’ capital contributions
III. 100% to the General Partner until the General Partner has received 20% of the aggregate amount
allocated to the limited partners pursuant to clause (II) above
IV. Thereafter, 80% to the limited partners and 20% to the General Partner.
The allocation of profits and losses in clauses III and IV represent carried interest to the General Partner.
December 31, 20XX
9. Partner’s capital (continued)

[If applicable:] If the balance of the General Partner’s capital account has been reduced to less than 1% of
the total partners’ capital, an amount (the contingent loss) necessary to bring the General Partner’s capital
account balance to 1% of the total partners’ capital will be reallocated from the capital accounts of the limited
partners’ to the General Partner’s capital account.
[If applicable:] As of December 31, 20XX, there was no contingent loss allocation.
Or:
[If applicable:] As of December 31, 20XX, a cumulative contingent loss of $XXX,XXX has been allocated to
the limited partners.
Capital distributions
[If applicable:] The Fund is required to make an annual mandatory distribution to each partner within
90 days after the end of each fiscal year to satisfy the individual partner tax liabilities generated by the Fund
during the year. The General Partner, in its own discretion, may make additional distributions subject to
certain restrictions.
Distributions are made to the partners pro rata in proportion to their respective capital contributions; however,
the limited partners’ share of any distributions are divided between the limited partners and the General
Partner in the same manner as the allocation of partnership profits and losses.
Carried interest
The capital accounts reflect the carried interest to the General Partner as if the Fund had realized all assets
and settled all liabilities at the fair value reported in the financial statements, and allocated all gains and losses and
distributed the net assets to the partners at the reporting date consistent with the provisions of the partnership’s
governing documents. The carried interest to the General Partner will remain provisional until final liquidation
of the Fund.
Clawback
[If applicable:] On termination of the Fund, if there has been any distribution of carried interest to the General
Partner and if the distributions received by the limited partners have been insufficient to provide the required return
of capital and preferred return, the General Partner will be obligated to return previously received carried interest
payments (the ‘clawback’) to the limited partners. The clawback is limited to the after-tax amount of carried interest
previously distributed to the General Partner.
[If applicable:] The capital accounts reflect a clawback of $XXX,XXX to be returned to the Fund as if the
Fund were to liquidate as of December 31, 20XX. The clawback will remain provisional until final liquidation of
the Fund.
10. Management fee

[Please review the Fund’s Agreement for the specific terms. The disclosure below is only an example:]
The Fund pays an annual management fee, calculated and payable on a quarterly basis, to the Investment
Manager. The management fee is based on an annual rate of 2% of the aggregate capital commitments
of the limited partners. After reaching the Investment Period Termination Date on [Month, Date, Year],
the management fee will be based on the amount of invested capital.
December 31, 20XX
10. Management fee (continued)

From time to time, the Investment Manager, General Partner, or any affiliate of the Fund may enter into specific
transactions on behalf of the Fund and receive a fee for their services. [XX%] of that fee is applied to reduce future
management fees payable by the Fund to the Investment Manager. For the year ended December 31, 20XX, the
Investment Manager earned $16,920,000 as a result of these transactions, of which 50% has been applied as a
reduction of management fee expense. For the year ended December 31, 20XX, the net management fee charged to
the Fund was $7,540,000.
Management fee payable of $2,080,000 represents the management fee due to the Investment Manager and
is expected to be paid in [Month, Year].
[If applicable:] At the discretion of the General Partner and Investment Manager, certain limited partners have
special management fee arrangements.
11. Related party transactions

The Fund considers the General Partner and the Investment Manager, their principal owners, members of
management, members of their immediate families, and entities under common control to be related parties to the
Fund. Amounts due from and due to related parties are generally settled in the normal course of business without
formal payment terms.
[If applicable:] Certain limited partners are related parties of the General Partner. The aggregate value of limited
partners’ capital owned by related parties at December 31, 20XX is approximately $XXX,XXX.
[If applicable:] Certain members of the General Partner serve as members of the Board of Directors of certain
investments aggregating approximately XX% of total capital in which the Fund holds investment positions.
[If applicable:] The Fund has amounts due from related parties for advances in the normal course of business. As
of December 31, 20XX, $57,000 is receivable from related parties. Amounts are noninterest bearing and are due
on demand.
[If applicable:] Additionally, the Fund may coinvest with other entities with the same General Partner as the
Fund. [If applicable:] At December 31, 20XX, the Fund held an investment with a fair value of $XXX,XXX that was
coinvested with affiliated funds. [If applicable:] At December 31, 20XX, the Fund had no investments that were
coinvested with affiliated funds.
[If applicable:] Certain expenses of the Fund may initially be invoiced to the Investment Manager [specifically
professional fees]. Subsequently, those amounts are charged to the Fund in accordance with the Agreement.
[If applicable:] The General Partner generally allocates investments between the Fund and other entities for
which it serves as the General Partner on a pro rata basis based on capital commitments. To maintain pro rata
allocations, the Fund may sell securities to, or purchase securities from, these other entities. These transactions
are generally executed at the closing price on the trade date, or for illiquid securities, at fair value as determined
by the General Partner.
[If applicable:] During 20XX, the Fund entered into purchase and sale transactions with [Entity Name], an
affiliated entity that is also managed by the General Partner. Total purchases and sales at fair value of approximately
$XXX,XXX and $XXX,XXX, respectively, were made with this related party. Transactions with related parties resulted
in net gains (losses) of $XXX,XXX, which are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the statement of
operations. The value of these transactions was determined using the Fund’s normal investment valuation policies.
December 31, 20XX
12. Commitments and contingencies

[The following disclosures are examples of long-term commitments and contingencies, which may occur
for an investment company. The appropriate disclosures to be included should be tailored based on the
facts and circumstances of the Fund:]
[If applicable:] In the normal course of business, the Fund has been named as a defendant in various matters.
Management of the Fund, after consultation with legal counsel, believes that the resolution of these matters will
not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows of the Fund.
[If applicable:] The Fund has provided general indemnifications to the General Partner, any affiliate of the
General Partner, and any person acting on behalf of the General Partner or that affiliate when they act, in good
faith, in the best interest of the Fund. The Fund is unable to develop an estimate of the maximum potential
amount of future payments that could potentially result from any hypothetical future claim but expects the
risk of having to make any payments under these general business indemnifications to be remote.
[If applicable:] The Fund is contractually required to provide financial support in the form of investment
commitments to certain investees as part of the conditions for entering into those investments. During the
year ended December 31, 20XX, the Fund funded capital calls of $XXX,XXX. At December 31, 20XX, the Fund
has unfunded investment commitments in the amount of $XXX,XXX. These commitments were subsequently
funded in 20XX. The Fund has no other unfunded investment commitments as of December 31, 20XX.
[If applicable:] The Fund provides financial support to its investees [Note: Examples of financial
support to investees may include loans, capital commitments, and guarantees. This can also include
situations in which the Fund assisted an investee in obtaining financial support.] in the normal course
of executing its investment strategies. The following tables summarize financial support provided to
the Fund’s investees during the year ended December 31, 20XX:
Financial support the Fund was contractually required to provide:

13. Risk factors
[The following disclosures are examples of risk factors that may occur for an investment company.
The appropriate disclosure to be included should be tailored based on the facts and circumstances of
the Fund:]
Management of the Fund seeks investment opportunities that offer the possibility of attaining substantial capital
appreciation. Certain events particular to each industry in which the Fund invests, and general economic and
political conditions, may have a significant negative effect on the investee’s operations and profitability. In addition,
the Fund is subject to changing regulatory and tax environments. These events are beyond the Fund’s control, and
the likelihood that they may occur cannot be predicted. Furthermore, most of the Fund’s investments are made in
private operating companies whose shares do not trade on established exchanges. While it is expected that these
companies may pursue initial public offerings, trade sales, or other liquidation events, there are generally no public
markets for these investments at the current time. The Fund’s ability to liquidate its private operating companies
and realize value is subject to significant limitations and uncertainties, including currency fluctuations. The Fund’s
ability to liquidate its publicly traded investments is subject to limitations, including discounts that may be required
to be taken on quoted prices due to the number of shares being sold.
14. Financial highlights
Financial highlights for the year ended December 31, 20XX are as follows:
Internal rate of return, since inception:

Beginning of year 23.0%
End of year 18.6%
Ratios to average limited partners' capital:
Expenses before carried interest to General Partner 1.4%
Carried interest to General Partner 1.2%
Expenses, including carried interest to General Partner 2.6%
Net investment loss (0.5)%
December 31, 20XX
14. Financial highlights (continued)

The net investment loss ratio does not reflect the effect of carried interest to the General Partner.
[For periods greater than or less than one year:] The ratios, excluding nonrecurring expenses and carried
interest to the General Partner, have been annualized.
The internal rate of return (IRR) of the limited partner class since inception of the Fund is net of carried interest
to the General Partner and computed based on the actual dates of capital contributions and distributions and the
ending aggregate limited partners’ capital balance (residual value).
Financial highlights are calculated for the limited partner class taken as a whole. An individual limited partner’s

[Include the following paragraph to the Investments in Private Investment Companies section of
“Valuation Techniques and Inputs” in Note 2 if the Fund has investments that were not valued using
the practical expedient:]
Investments in private investment companies are classified in Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
In determining the level, the Fund considers the length of time until the investment is redeemable, including
notice and lockup periods or any other restriction on the disposition of the investment. The Fund also
considers the nature of the portfolios of the underlying private investment companies and their ability to
liquidate their underlying investments.
At December 31, 20XX, the Fund had investments in private investment companies of $X,XXX,000 that did not
qualify for the practical expedient because it is probable that the Fund will sell these investments for amounts
that differ from the net asset valuations provided by the underlying private investment companies. [Include
a description of the remaining actions required to complete the sale of the investments.] Investments
in private investment companies of approximately $X,XXX,000 were valued based on the Fund’s estimates of
secondary market transactions for those investments, using discounts ranging between X.X% and X.X% of
their stated net asset valuations.
Investments in private investment companies
As of December 31, 20XX, the Fund was invested in other private investment companies. Each of these
investments has certain restrictions related to rights of withdrawal by the Fund as specified in the respective
agreements. Generally, the Fund is required to provide notice of its intent to withdraw after the investment
has been maintained for a certain period of time. The management agreements of the private investment
companies provide for compensation to the managers in the form of fees ranging from X% to X% annually
of net assets and performance incentive allocations or fees ranging from XX% to XX% of net profits earned.
[Include if invested in a related party:]
The Fund had an investment in Related Fund, L.P., an affiliated investment company, of approximately
$X,XXX,000, as of December 31, 20XX. [Include a description of any liquidity provisions of the related-
party fund, such as the following example:] The Fund may redeem its investment in Related Fund, L.P. on
a quarterly basis following a 30-day notice period. The management agreement of the affiliated investment
company provides for compensation to the manager in the form of fees of X.X% annually of net assets and
incentive allocation or fees of XX% of net profits earned (subject to a loss carryforward). For the year ended
December 31, 20XX, the Fund was charged management and incentive fees of $XXX,000 and $XXX,000,
respectively.

Appendix A
December 31, 20XX
[The following represents example disclosures to summarize the overall risks and any concentration
exposures in the aggregate of the investee(s) by geographic regions, industries, and types of
securities. This will need to be customized for each Fund of Funds specifically:]
The North America value group disclosed in the preceding table invests solely in the healthcare industry.
The North America merger arbitrage group disclosed in the preceding table consists of investments in hedge
funds that invest approximately 60% in equities concentrated in technology and 40% in bonds concentrated
in economic, political, and government‑driven events.
The private equity categories disclosed in the preceding table invest primarily in foreign technology
companies. These investments cannot be voluntarily redeemed. Instead, the investments in this category
make distributions of the underlying assets of the funds that have liquidated.
The Fund is subject to credit risk to the extent that the investment managers of the underlying private
investment companies are unable to fulfill their obligations according to their organizational documents.
The Fund, through its investments in private investment companies, is subject to risk inherent when
investing in securities and private investments. In connection with its investments, the Fund is subject to the
market and credit risk of those investments held or sold short by the private investment companies. Due to
the nature of the Fund’s investments, the risks described above are limited to the Fund’s investment balances
and unfunded commitments to private investment companies.
[If applicable:] At December 31, 20XX, certain investments in private investment companies were
managed by the same underlying investment manager, representing approximately XX% of the Fund’s
[partners’ capital][net assets].
[If applicable, additional disclosure is required if a reporting entity determines that it is probable that
it will sell an investment(s) for an amount different from net asset value per share (or equivalent). The
reporting entity is required to disclose the total fair value of all investments that meet the criteria of a
possible sale and any remaining actions required to complete the sale. Note: This disclosure does not
apply to funds early adopting ASU 2015-07. See Appendix C for additional guidance.]
[If applicable, additional disclosure is required if a reporting entity determines that it is probable that
it will sell a group of investments, but the individual investments have not been identified (e.g., if
a reporting entity decides to sell 20% of its investments in private equity funds but the individual
investments to be sold have not been identified), the reporting entity is required to disclose its plans
to sell and any remaining actions required to complete the sale(s).]

1. Organization
[This note should be tailored to the Fund’s specific nature of operations:] Venture Capital Fund, L.P.
(the Fund), a Delaware investment limited partnership, commenced operations on [Month, Date, Year]. The Fund
was organized to [Include a description of the Fund’s investment objectives]. The Fund is managed by General
Partner, LLC (the General Partner) and Investment Manager, LLC (the Investment Manager). [If applicable:]

Appendix C
Adoption of ASU 2015-07
December 31, 20XX
Note: ASU 2015-07, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That
Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent) removes the requirement to categorize within the
fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share as
a practical expedient. The guidance in ASU 2015-07 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2015 (and interim periods within those fiscal years) and for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2016 (and interim periods within those fiscal years) for all other entities.
Earlier application is permitted.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncement
The Fund elected to early adopt the guidance issued in ASU 2015-07 Topic 820, Disclosures for Investments in
Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent), which removes the requirement
to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments measured using the net asset value per share as
a practical expedient and related disclosures. The Fund adopted the guidance retrospectively, which removes
investments measured using the net asset value per share as a practical expedient from the fair value hierarchy
in all periods presented. The adoption of this accounting guidance did not have a material impact on the Fund’s
financial statements.
Fair value measurements
[Include the following disclosure to reconcile the fair value of assets categorized within the fair value
hierarchy to the amounts presented in the statement of assets and liabilities. Note: Certain investment
categories have been condensed to simplify the illustration below:]
