The Firm, or its affiliates, may also advise other funds and separate investment
vehicles on bespoke investment strategies that include investment in new markets ,
potential “GP-led” secondary transactions, continuation vehicles, or other investment
transactions, including co-investments made alongside unaffiliated investors such as
family offices, independent sponsors, and private capital fund managers, or strategies that
may include “GP stakes” and “GP seeding” transactions.
As investment adviser for each Fund, Inverness Graham identifies investment
opportunities and participates in the acquisition, management, monitoring, and disposition
of investments for each Fund. Inverness Graham provides these investment advisory
services to each Fund pursuant to separate investment advisory agreements (each an

"Advisory Agreement").2 The terms of the investment advisory services to be provided by
Inverness Graham to a Fund, including any specific investment guidelines or restrictions,
are set forth in such Fund's Advisory Agreement and/or in its Limited Partnership
Agreement (collectively, the “Fund Documents”). We tailor our advisory services to the
individual needs of each of the Funds, not to each underlying investor. Individual needs
are identified
through a review of each Fund's overall investment guidelines and objectives,
as well as specific investment goals.
Inverness Graham has entered, and may in the future enter, into side letters or other
similar arrangements with certain investors that have the effect of establishing rights under,
supplementing, or altering a Fund’s partnership agreement or an investor’s subscription
agreement. Such rights or alterations could be regarding economic terms, fee structures,
excuse rights, information rights, co-investment rights (including the provision of priority
allocation rights to limited partners who have capital commitments in excess of certain
thresholds to one or more Funds), or transfer rights. For the most part, any right established,
or any term altered or supplemented, will govern only the investment of the specific
investor and not the terms of a Fund as a whole. Certain such additional rights, but not all
rights, terms, or conditions, may be elected by certain investors with “most favored nation”
rights pursuant to their own side letters.
We do not participate in any wrap fee programs.
As of December 31, 2023, our regulatory assets under management ("Regulatory
AUM") totaled approximately $1,310,751,851. This Regulatory AUM figure represents the
sum of the fair market value of the assets held by the Funds as of December 31, 2023, plus
the aggregate amount of uncalled capital commitments to the Funds. We manage all of the
assets in the Funds on a discretionary basis. We do not manage any assets on a non-
discretionary basis.
We intend to advise other investment entities that are forecasted to be formed after
the date of the filing of this Form ADV. Such additional future investment entities may
include and are not limited to, (i) new investment strategies, (ii) future co-investment
vehicles (iii) entities formed in connection with the formation of a General Partner led
transaction in which ownership of an investment from an existing Fund is sold to a newly
created Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), (iv) a “Strip Sale” transaction in which secondary
investors contribute new capital to a Fund, which is utilized to execute a distribution to the
Fund’s Limited Partners, (v) continuation vehicle transactions, and (vi) other types of
transactions as secondary markets continue to evolve. Some of these future investments may
include involvement with other members of the Graham Group alliance, as defined in Item
5.

subsidiaries.
As of December 2023, we manage two separate investment strategies. Since 2003,
Inverness Graham has historically focused on its “Flagship Funds” investment strategy, in
which it targets lower middle market businesses, primarily high growth, technology-
enabled manufacturing and service companies. Our second investment strategy being
pursued by the Green Light Fund, which was formed in March 2023, focuses on pursuing
investments in lower middle market buyouts of businesses where environmental
sustainability is a key driver of growth. One of our goals when investing in such companies
is to help them achieve a reduced carbon footprint and/or protect and maximize natural
resources as these companies serve both target and ancillary non-environmental end
markets.
