This allocation issue is a conflict of interest. To address this, loans are considered based on objective criteria that does not consider fees and that is assessed and documented in the credit due diligence process on the basis of each compartment’s specific investment objectives and restrictions and the allocation requirements applicable to a fund or a compartment. The final allocation, based on these criteria and in accordance with the Group Portfolio Management Allocation Policy, is made by the IM’s Portfolio Management Conducting Officer (“PMCO”) and presented to the IM’s Investment Committee (“IC”) for consideration and approval. Fee methodology and calculations are subject to a separate external independent, annual review by our auditors. Co-investment: From time to time, a loan will be considered that would be suitable for ERISA 1 (where PCA acts as the QPAM) alongside the other SLF, Debt Fund, SCF, NAV and RSS funds managed by the IM.

Full transparency on the ERISA 1 allocation by PCA is also provided to the IM’s Portfolio Management Conducting Officer and presented to the IM’s IC. Fee methodology and calculations are subject to a separate external independent, annual review by our auditors. Capital structure: A conflict of interest arises when making investments at different levels of an issuer’s capital structure for different funds or compartments or between different vintages of the same strategy as the different funds will have conflicting motivations should the borrower enter a restructuring. To address this conflict, we have a process that involves a three-tier oversight approach undertaken by an initial and final Credit Review Committee with any conflict of interest present and being raised to the Conflicts Committee for review and clearance and then oversight by the IM’s IC which review and approve the investment. There is an eleven-step process approved by the Conflicts Committee that would oversee a restructuring workout. Transfers: Certain assets held by one fund or compartment can be transferred between funds or compartments causing a conflict of interest and an issue in valuing the asset to be transferred. Proposals to sell-down or transfer assets from a compartment to another vehicle or 3rd party will be executed in accordance with the respective General Partner’s contractual obligations. Where the GP believes the matter will have a material effect on the fund, this must be approved by the Investment Advisory Committee (“IAC”) (members of the IAC are limited partners who are large sophisticated institutions). For any asset transfer consideration will be given to (1) transfer price of the asset, (2) suitability of the transfer between a selling and buying entity and (3) commercial rationale as to why this is attractive for both sets of investors. The assets will be valued prior to any transaction according to the Valuation Policy and will be approved by the IM’s IC.
