similar to the terms of an investment in GC I and accordingly references herein to the

otherwise noted.
The Advisers also manage Accel-KKR Members Fund, LLC and Accel-KKR Members
Fund II, LLC (the “Members Funds”), which make co-investments side-by-side with various
Funds in portfolio investments.
The Funds are each private investment funds and, with respect to the PE Funds and
Emerging Buyout Funds, generally invest through negotiated transactions in holding companies
that in turn own private operating companies, generally referred to herein as “portfolio
companies.” The Growth Capital Funds were established to make investments in portfolio
companies consisting of investments in structured minority preferred equity or subordinated
debt with equity enhancements. The Credit Funds were established to generally generate
proprietary direct lending to portfolio companies. Investments of the Funds are made
predominantly in non- public companies, although investments in certain public companies are
permitted. Where such investments consist of portfolio companies, the senior principals or other
personnel of the Advisers or their affiliates generally serve on such portfolio companies’
respective boards of directors or otherwise act to influence control over management of portfolio
companies in which the Funds have invested. The Advisers’ services to the Funds consist of
identifying and evaluating investment opportunities, negotiating the terms of investments,
monitoring investments and achieving dispositions for such investments, each on a discretionary
basis.
The Advisers’ advisory services for Private Investment Funds are further described in
the applicable private placement memoranda, if available, or other offering documents and Fund
Agreements (as defined below) (together with the offering documents, the “Governing
Documents”) as well as below under “Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of
Loss” and “Investment Discretion.” Investors in Private Investment 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 permitted to be excused from a particular
investment in certain of the Funds due to legal, regulatory or other agreed-upon circumstances,
in each case pursuant to the terms of the applicable Fund Agreement for the avoidance of doubt,
such arrangements generally do not and will not create an adviser-client relationship between
the Advisers and any investor. The Private Investment Funds or the Advisers have entered into
side letters or other 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 a Private Investment Fund’s Fund Agreement.
