Interests in the Funds generally are privately offered to qualified investors in the United
States and elsewhere. The Funds are expected to invest through negotiated transactions in
operating companies, generally referred to herein as “portfolio companies.” CIVC’s investment
advisory services to Funds consist of identifying and evaluating investment opportunities,
negotiating the terms of investments, managing and monitoring investments and ultimately selling
such investments. Investments are made predominantly in non-public companies, although
investments in public companies are permitted in certain instances. Where such investments
consist of portfolio companies, the senior principals or other personnel of CIVC generally serve
on such portfolio companies’ respective boards of directors or otherwise actively work with
management of portfolio companies in which the Funds have invested.
CIVC’s advisory services to each Fund are detailed in the relevant offering memorandum
(each, a “Memorandum”) and/or limited partnership agreement of the Funds (each, a “Limited
Partnership
Agreement” and together with the Memorandum, the “Governing Documents”)
and are further described below under “Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of
Loss.” Investors in the Funds (generally referred to herein as “investors” or “limited partners”)
participate in the overall investment program for the applicable fund, but in certain circumstances
are excused from a particular investment due to legal, regulatory or other agreed-upon
circumstances pursuant to the Governing Documents; such arrangements generally do not and will
not create an adviser-client relationship between CIVC and any investor. The Funds or CIVC
generally enter into side letters or similar agreements (“Side Letters”) with certain investors that
have the effect of establishing rights under, or altering or supplementing the terms (including
economic or other terms) of the Governing Documents with respect to such investors.
Additionally, as permitted by the relevant Governing Documents, CIVC expects to provide
(or agree to provide) investment or co-investment opportunities (including the opportunity to
participate in co-investment vehicles) to certain current or prospective investors or other persons,
including other sponsors, market participants, finders, consultants and other service providers,
portfolio company management or personnel, CIVC’s personnel and/or certain other persons
associated with CIVC or portfolio companies owned by the Funds (including portfolio company
management) and/or their affiliates (including in some situations a vehicle formed to co-invest
alongside a particular Fund’s transactions, such as CIVC Executive Fund IV, L.P., CIVC
Executive Fund V, L.P., CIVC Partners Executive Fund VI, L.P., CIVC Partners Executive Fund
VII, L.P., and CIVC-Datavail SPV, L.P. (collectively, the “Co-Invest Funds”)). Such Co-Invest
Funds or other investors typically invest and dispose of their interests in the applicable portfolio
company at the same time and on the same terms as the Fund making the investment. However,
for strategic and other reasons, a co-investor or co-invest vehicle (including a Co-Invest Fund)
purchases a portion of an investment from one or more Funds after such Funds have consummated
their investment in the portfolio company (also known as a post-closing sell-down or transfer),
which generally will have been funded through Fund investor capital contributions and/or use of
a Fund credit facility. Any such purchase from a Fund by a co-investment vehicle or other investor
generally occurs shortly after the Fund’s completion of the investment to avoid any changes in
valuation of the investment, but in certain instances could be well after the Fund’s initial purchase.
Where appropriate, and in CIVC’s sole discretion, CIVC reserves the right to charge interest on
the purchase to the Co-Invest Funds or other investors to seek reimbursement to the relevant Fund
for related costs (or otherwise equitably to adjust the purchase price under certain conditions).
However, to the extent any such amounts are not so charged or reimbursed (including charges or
reimbursements required pursuant to applicable law), they generally will be borne by the relevant
Fund or, to the extent such other investors are members of portfolio company management, the
applicable portfolio company.
As of December 31, 2023, CIVC managed approximately $2,268,958,100 in client assets
on a discretionary basis.
The Management Company is ultimately managed by CIVC Management GP LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company, which is managed by a Board of Managers currently
comprised of John H. Compall, Christopher J. Perry, and Christopher Geneser. There are no
principal owners of the Management Company.
