Each of the Partnerships invests (or intends to invest) in real estate and real estate-related assets,
which may include, without
limitation, investments in 1) performing, sub-performing, and non-
performing loans secured directly or indirectly by commercial real estate assets; 2) direct or
indirect interests in commercial real estate assets; 3) control positions in financial institutions
and other operating companies with significant interests in real estate-related assets; and 4) non-
performing loans secured by multi-family real estate assets, as well as entering into derivative
instruments related to any of the foregoing investment types and any other types of incidental
assets that are part of an investment. A Partnership may invest in or acquire such assets directly,
or indirectly through partnerships, joint ventures, alternative investment vehicles (including
special investment vehicles) or otherwise.
KEPI, KEP Investors, and KEPA Investors (collectively, “Fund 1”) were organized in 2013 and
included a primary geographic investment focus in Western Europe. The Commitment Period (as
defined herein) has concluded for Fund 1. KEPII and KEPII Investors (collectively, “Fund 2”) were
organized in 2016 and included a primary geographic investment focus in Western Europe and
Scandinavia. The Commitment Period has concluded for Fund 2. KUSPIII and KEPIII Investors
(collectively, “Fund 3”) were organized in 2021 and included a primary geographic investment
focus in the United States and Western Europe. The Commitment Period has concluded for Fund
3. KUSPIII was initially a special investment vehicle organized by Kildare European Partners III,
L.P., a Bermuda exempt limited partnership (“KEPIII”). Since Fund 3’s investments are in the
United States, and no future Fund 3 investments are anticipated to be in Europe, KUSPIII was
reorganized to be the investment fund for Fund 3, and KEPIII has been terminated. Co-Invest
Fund was organized in 2021 for a specific investment in Puerto Rico, and the terms of its
Partnership Documents did not include a Commitment Period. KPIV and KPIV Investors
(collectively, “Fund 4”) were organized in 2023 and the Commitment Period initiated in July
2023. Fund 4’s primary geographic investment focus will be the United States, and, to a limited
extent, in Europe and elsewhere outside the United States.
