​
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain materials and statements contained herein constitute “projections,” “estimates,” “forecasts” and other “forward-looking statements”. These projections, estimates, forecasts and other forward-looking statements, which can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “estimate,” “target,” “intend,” “continue” or “believe,” or the negatives thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, are based primarily upon applying assumptions retroactively to certain historical financial and other information. Due to various risks and uncertainties, actual events or results or the actual performance of any fund (including the Fund) or any company described herein may differ materially from those reflected or contemplated in such forward-looking statements.
​
Award, Honor, Ranking
No compensation was received from or paid to any award-granting body in association with any award described in this presentation. Any award, honor, or other reference to ranking referred to herein with respect to Seraya are provided solely for informational purposes and are not intended to be, nor should they be construed or relied upon as, any indication of future performance or other future activity. Any such award, honor, or other reference or ranking referred to herein may have been based on subjective criteria and may have been based on a limited universe of participants, and there are other awards, honors, or other references or rankings given to others and not received by Seraya. Other third parties or investors may disagree with the awards given to Seraya and potential investors should make their own determination about the prospects for the investment made by funds managed by Seraya. Receipt of the awards indicated herein may not be representative of the future performance of Seraya or any of its funds or investments and there is no guarantee that similar awards will be obtained by Seraya in the future.
Performance Information
Past Performance. Any historical return and/or past performance included in this presentation is not a prediction or guarantee of future performance and there can be no assurance that the same or similar investments will be made by the Fund, the Fund will be able to effectively implement its investment strategy and/or performance objectives, or comparable values or returns will be achieved or such performance objectives will be achieved by the Fund. Specific investment references provided herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily representative of investments that will be made by the Fund or Seraya in the future.
Target Performance. Any hypothetical, estimate or target performance and/or return included in this presentation is for illustrative purposes only and does not represent actual performance or other information related to the Fund or investment of Seraya. Seraya intends to target investments with the potential to produce the target returns presented herein, and is intended to indicate how Seraya underwrites investments. Accordingly, the target performance information should not under any circumstances be understood as the “track record” or the performance of any actual investment vehicle.
In considering the performance information contained herein, prospective investors should bear in mind that targeted performance is not a guarantee, projection or prediction and is not necessarily indicative of future results. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve comparable results, that targeted returns will be met or that the Fund will be able to implement its investment strategy and investment approach or achieve its investment objectives. Actual investment level and net returns for the Fund may vary significantly from the targeted returns set forth herein. The Fund’s target returns are expected to be realized from the disposition of investments using leverage where Seraya believes it is appropriate. The target returns stated herein are based on Seraya’s belief about what returns may be achievable on investments that Seraya intends to pursue in light of Seraya’s experience with similar transactions. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve such returns or objectives. The adoption of these performance objectives is not intended to predict the Fund’s performance; instead, the objectives are used to help explain how the Manager intends to construct the Fund’s portfolio. The ultimate returns realized by the Fund will depend on numerous factors, which are subject to uncertainty. Further, the target returns stated herein are based, in whole or in part, on an assumption that economic, market and other conditions will not deteriorate and, in some cases, improve. Actual realized returns on the Fund’s investments will depend on, among other factors, the ability to consummate attractive investments, future operating results, the value of the assets and market conditions at the time of disposition, any related transaction costs and the timing and manner of sale, all of which may differ from the assumptions and circumstances on which the target returns are based. Accordingly, there can be no assurances that any performance or return objective will be realized or achieved. In addition, there are a variety of risks that may impede the achievement of the performance objectives, which are not included in this presentation. Actual results may vary materially and adversely. Target net returns are estimated by applying the estimated management fees, carried interest and expenses for the Fund to the target gross returns indicated herein.
Realized and Unrealized Values. The performance of Fund I described herein consists of investments that are unrealized. While Seraya’s projections regarding the performance of unrealized investments are based on assumptions that Seraya believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the actual realized returns on unrealized investments will depend on, among other factors, future operating results, the value of the assets, market conditions at the time of disposition, any related transaction cost, the timing and manner of sale, and in the case of net returns, management fees, expenses and carried interest charged in connection with such unrealized investments, all of which may differ materially from the assumptions on which the valuations herein are based. There can be no assurance that proceeds will be realized on these unrealized investments, or that, if and when realized, the actual realized returns and actual proceeds will be equal to Seraya’s projected returns indicated herein. Accordingly, the actual realized returns on investments that are partially realized or unrealized, as well as the IRRs and MOICs relying on unrealized values, may differ materially and adversely from the Seraya’s projected returns and/or projected proceeds indicated herein. For the purposes of the IRRs and MOICs presented herein, unrealized investments are treated as if realized on the date indicated in the track record, and in the case of net returns, as though the applicable estimated carried interest were paid at such date.
Performance figures. Performance figures in this presentation are as of the date indicated herein unless otherwise noted. Certain numbers have been rounded. Unless otherwise noted, the performance figures in this presentation are unaudited and are calculated by Seraya. While this presentation highlights important data, it does not purport to capture all dimensions of risk. The methodology used to aggregate and analyze data may be adjusted periodically. The results of previous analyses may differ as a result of those adjustments. Seraya has made assumptions that it deems reasonable and used what it believes to be the best information available in producing calculations and figures.
Gross and net performance figures for an individual investment or a subset of individual investments of a fund are estimated and do not represent actual performance experienced by investors on a fund-level basis. These figures have been calculated on a model basis (the “Model”) using specific allocation of carried interest and allocating management fees and expenses based on invested capital of such individual investment or investments at the end of the relevant quarter. Further details of the Model are available upon request. These performance figures illustrate the potentially substantial impact of fees, carried interest and expenses on the gross returns of extracted performance, even though these amounts are charged or allocated at the fund level. Net performance figures of an individual investments or a subset of investments of a fund may materially differ from the net performance figures of such fund.
For purposes of any performance information provided in this presentation, investor should refer to the following explanatory notes:
“Capital Invested” represents the amount of capital invested, including follow-on investments, by the relevant fund in the applicable transaction or transactions. The amount of invested capital includes amounts actually or deemed to have been distributed to, and recalled from, investors under the relevant fund’s recycling provisions, if any.
“Gross IRR” in relation to a fund or any one or more of its investments represents the aggregate, annual, compound, gross internal rate of return on such investment, investments or the fund, based on realized and unrealized proceeds using historical fund-level cash flows between a fund and its portfolio companies. Gross IRR is calculated before the deduction of management fees, carried interest, general fund expenses and other expenses borne by investors, all of which may be substantial and reduce returns.
“Gross MOIC” in relation to a fund or any one or more of its investments represents the gross investment multiple, which is the Total Value divided by Capital Invested of such fund or investment(s) on a gross basis, and does not reflect the deduction of management fees, carried interest and general fund expenses borne by investors, all of which may be substantial and reduce returns.
“IRR” in relation to a fund or any one or more of its investments represents the internal rate of return and represents the annualized implied discount rate that equates the present value of all the cash inflows with the sum of the present value of all the cash outflows and present value of the unrealized residual value as of the end of the period. Inputs used to calculate realized and unrealized multiple and IRR figures (e.g., paid-in capital, distributions and fair market values) may differ from accounting-based information (e.g., cost basis, realized and unrealized gains/losses).
“MOIC” in relation to a fund or any one or more of its investments represents the investment multiple, which is the Total Value divided by Capital Invested of such fund or investment(s).
“Net IRR” in relation to a fund or any one or more of its investments represents the aggregate, annual, compound, internal rate of return on such fund or investment(s), calculated after payment of the applicable management fees, carried interest and general fund expenses borne by investors based on the Model described above. An individual limited partner’s Net IRR may vary based on, but not limited to, the size and timing of capital contributions and distributions.
“Net MOIC” in relation to a fund or any one or more of its investments represents the net investment multiple, which is the Total Value divided by Capital Invested of such fund or investment(s) on a net basis, after reduction of management fees, carried interest and general fund expenses borne by investors based on the Model described above.
“Realized Value” for realized investments and the realized portion of partially realized investments represents the proceeds received by the applicable fund in connection with the sale of all or a portion of a portfolio investment, or in connection with distributions from an investment.
“Unrealized Value” for unrealized investments and the unrealized portion of partially realized investments represents the estimated fair value of an investment that has not been realized in accordance with the Seraya valuation policy. The fair value of an investment is an estimate of the price that would be received upon the liquidation of an investment in an orderly transaction between two parties at the measurement date under current market conditions.
“Total Value” represents the sum of Realized Value and Unrealized Value.
“N/A” represents circumstances where Seraya believes the calculation period to be insufficient to yield any meaningful result, when an investment is not yet operational and is still in the project development phase, or in the case of negative IRR, where an IRR cannot be calculated.
By accepting this presentation, each recipient of this presentation represents and warrants that: (a) it is able to receive this presentation without contravention of any unfulfilled registration requirements or other legal or regulatory restrictions in the jurisdiction in which such recipient resides or conducts business, (b) it will maintain the information and data contained herein in the strictest of confidence and will not, in any circumstances whatsoever, reproduce this presentation, in whole or in part, or disclose any of the contents hereof to any other person, and (c) it agrees to be bound by the foregoing limitations.

Placement Agent
In connection with the offering of Interests in the Fund, all U.S. regulated capital market and securities advisory services are provided by William Blair & Company, L.L.C., a registered broker-dealer with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and a member of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority and Securities Investor Protection Corporation (the “Placement Agent”). In the event Interests are offered to prospective investors outside the U.S., the Placement Agent may perform certain services through, or in conjunction with, its affiliates.
Seraya and not the Placement Agent has prepared the information contained herein (including certain forward-looking statements) and may have obtained from published sources or other parties. While such sources are believed to be reliable, none of the Placement Agent or its affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, or other agents assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information. Any market or other views expressed herein are those of the author compiled and obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but the Placement Agent does not represent or warrant that the market or other views are accurate and complete or that any transaction is appropriate for any person, and it should not be relied on as such. Any information concerning the performance track record of any financial product is provided purely for informational purposes and without any representation or warranty by the Placement Agent.
Any estimated or target performance presented herein is prepared by Seraya and not the Placement Agent. Such estimated or target performance is based on Seraya’s internal estimates, and should not be considered a prediction, projection, or guarantees of future performance. Actual performance including all yields, returns, multiples, estimates and profit margins will depend on numerous factors, including the pace and duration of an investment, costs and expenses, leverage, and fees, all of which would significantly impact any returns and distributions. While Seraya believes its performance estimates and targets to be reasonable and sound under the current circumstances, there is no assurance that they will be achieved or that an investment in the Fund will be profitable. Investors should closely review the Disclaimers and Other Important Disclosures of this presentation for important information regarding all performance information presented herein.
This presentation was prepared by Seraya or other representatives of the Fund and is being furnished solely for the use of prospective investors in the Fund. The Placement Agent is acting solely as placement agent for the Fund and, in that capacity, is not acting as investment adviser to prospective investors in the Fund. Potential investors must make their own investment decisions after consultation with their own lawyers, accountants, and other professionals. In making an investment decision, potential investors should be aware that Placement Agent will receive a placement fee from Seraya that is generally based upon the commitment amount of the investors. The Placement Agent also may seek to do business with and earn fees or commissions from affiliates of Seraya or the Fund and in relation to the Fund’s investments, as well as from other third-party fund sponsors that may have similar or different investment objectives of the Fund. Examples of such business may include the provision of advisory and placement services. Accordingly, potential investors should recognize that the Placement Agent’s marketing of Interests may be influenced by its interest in current or future fees and commissions, including differentials in the placement fees that are offered by other third-party fund sponsors for which the Placement Agent provides similar placement services. The Placement Agent expressly disclaims any representation or warranty regarding involvement in or responsibility for any forward-looking statements or any other information contained in this presentation.
Seraya engaged the Placement Agent to provide placement advisory services in connection with an offering of Interests in the Fund. The Placement Agent expects to receive cash compensation and may receive non-cash compensation in connection with soliciting prospective Fund investors, including compensation based on capital raised. The Placement Agent’s compensation arrangement, and any additional relationships that the Placement Agent may have with Seraya or its funds, results in material conflicts of interest, including an incentive to endorse Seraya or its funds and accounts. The Placement Agent is not a current client of Seraya, and is not an investor in the Fund or an account of Seraya, although the employees of the Placement Agent and its affiliates may currently, or subsequently, invest with Seraya. The Placement Agent may also provide brokerage services to, or otherwise do business with, companies into which Seraya, its funds, or accounts directly or indirectly invest.
