The Funds have been formed primarily to make investments in middle-market companies with enterprise
values typically between $30 million and $350 million with a focus on the medical and industrial markets.
The offering materials and governing documents of each Fund set forth the specific investment guidelines
and restrictions for the Fund. Investors in the Funds do not have the ability to impose specific investment
objectives or restrictions on the Funds.
Each Fund could participate in investments directly or through alternative investment vehicles established
for one or more of the applicable Fund’s limited partners in order to address certain tax, regulatory, legal or
other considerations (each, an “AIV”). For example, in connection with VSC II’s investment in a Canadian
portfolio company, the Firm formed an AIV domiciled in the Cayman Islands through which all of VSC II
Main’s limited partners participated in such investment.
The Funds invest in securities of portfolio companies through holding companies that include other third-
party investors with which the Firm does not have an investment advisory client relationship. The Funds
also co-invest in investments with limited partners and third parties who are affiliated with the Firm or any of
the Funds’ partners. Under certain circumstances, the Firm facilitates such investments by establishing a
co-investment vehicle, managed by VSM or an affiliate, and through which the Funds and one or more co-
investors could participate in one or more investments.
As of December 31, 2023, the Firm managed discretionary Client assets in the amount of $1,968,278,300.
The Firm does not manage assets on a non-discretionary basis, nor does it participate in a wrap fee
program.
