UGVP Management, LLC ("UGVP” or the “Adviser") is a limited liability company that was
formed on February 7, 2014, in the State of North Carolina. Greg Bohlen and Patrick A. Cairns
jointly own 100% of UGVP.
UGVP generally provides investment advisory and sub-advisory services to various private
investment funds and special purpose vehicles (“SPVs”) for the purpose of facilitating certain
investments by one or more UGVP Funds and/or investors, as well as certain investment
accounts (collectively, the “UGVP Funds”). The Adviser makes investment decisions on
behalf of many of the UGVP Funds (such UGVP Funds, the “UGVP Discretionary Funds”) and
makes investment recommendations on behalf of other UGVP Funds (such UGVP Funds, the
“UGVP Advisory Funds”). A related person of the Adviser generally acts as general partner of
each UGVP Fund. The Adviser takes whatever actions are necessary to monitor the activities
of any investments made by the UGVP Funds and the financial position of the general
partners of the UGVP Discretionary Funds. The UGVP Funds typically invest in securities that
are not publicly traded, including investments in venture capital and private equity
investment funds (“Investment Funds”) and early and growth stage operating companies
(“Direct Investments”). The Adviser may also make investment decisions with respect to the
securities of public and private companies held by the UGVP Funds. The Adviser manages all
of the UGVP Discretionary Funds on a discretionary basis in accordance with the terms and
conditions of each UGVP Discretionary Fund’s Governing Documents (as defined below). The
Adviser manages the UGVP Advisory Funds on a non‐discretionary basis in accordance with
the terms of each UGVP Advisory Fund’s Governing Documents. Investment
recommendations made to the UGVP Funds are often subject to approval by an advisory
committee or similar entity. In the future, UGVP may provide advisory services to other
types of advisory clients.
Interests in the UGVP Funds are offered exclusively to accredited
investors pursuant to
Section 3(c)(1) and/or qualified purchasers pursuant to Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). In general, the UGVP
Funds are formed to make, hold and dispose of privately negotiated equity and equity‐
related investments, either in Investment Funds or Direct Investments.
The Adviser tailors its advisory services to the specific investment objectives and investment
restrictions of each UGVP Fund pursuant to the confidential private placement
memorandum, limited partnership agreement, LLC operating agreement, or other governing
documents of such UGVP Fund (the “Governing Documents”). Investors and prospective
investors should refer to the Governing Documents for more complete information on the
investment objectives and investment restrictions with respect to such UGVP Fund. There is
no assurance that any of the UGVP Funds’ investment objectives will be achieved.
In accordance with common industry practice, one or more of the UGVP Fund general
partners may enter into “side letters” or similar agreements with certain investors pursuant
to which the general partner grants such investors specific rights, benefits, or privileges that
are not generally made available to other investors. The Adviser does not enter into such
side letters if they would result in a material change in the investment objectives of the UGVP
Funds.
The Adviser does not participate in wrap fee programs.
As of December 31, 2023, the Adviser is able to provide its regulatory assets under
management as of September 30, 2023, which are $320,604,383, under management on a
discretionary basis, and $301,107,143 under management on a non-discretionary basis. The
entire amount of regulatory assets under management as of December 31, 2023, will be
provided via an other-than-annual amendment to this Brochure at such time as the
necessary asset valuations are received (see expanded disclosure in Schedule D,
Miscellaneous within the Adviser’s Form ADV Part 1).
