Two Roads Partners Management, LP (“Two Roads”), together with its funds’ general partners
and affiliates (hereinafter “Two Roads”, “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Firm”), is a private equity
firm based in New York, New York, organized as a Delaware limited Partnership. Established
in 2022, Two Roads’ focus is on making control equity investments and buyouts of commercial
and industrial lower middle market businesses headquartered in the U.S, while pursuing a
create-and-build investment strategy. The Firm believes there is significant opportunity to
invest in healthy, closely-held or founder-owned businesses in misunderstood or fragmented
markets.
As the investment adviser, Two Roads manages special purpose vehicles dedicated to specific
portfolio companies and offers discretionary investment advisory services to qualified
investors through its private funds.
Two Roads manages the following private investment funds:
• TRP NACI Co-Invest, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Co-Invest Fund”);
• Two Roads Partners Fund I, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Fund I”);
• Two Roads Partners Fund I-A, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Fund I-A”).
These funds are collectively referred to as the "Funds" or the "Clients". Each fund operates
under a general partner ("General Partner") affiliated with Two Roads. These General Partners
are considered registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended ("Advisers
Act"), through Two Roads' SEC registration. While the General Partners retain ultimate
authority, Two Roads functions as the designated investment adviser.
The investors in the Funds are collectively referred to as the “Limited Partners”, the
“Investors”, or the “Partners”, where appropriate.

Advisory Services
Two Roads serves as a private equity fund manager to its Funds, focusing on investing
primarily in blue-collar family-owned or closely-held lower middle market businesses, that
serve commercial and industrial end-markets throughout the United States, where the Firm
has identified a significant opportunity to acquire healthy businesses with recurring revenues
and high margins, targeting fragmented industry niches with multiple roll-up opportunities.
The Funds invest in portfolio companies
through privately negotiated transactions. Each
portfolio company has its own independent management team, although Two Roads will
appoint senior principals and other personnel/ third parties to the board of directors to exert
influence. Two Roads also recruits key individuals, such as Chief Executive Officer, Chief
Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, or other upper management roles, to guide portfolio
company management. Upon initial investment, a member of the Two Roads team assumes
roles such as “president”, “secretary”, or “treasurer” of the portfolio company, a title which
they will hold throughout the ownership period.
Two Roads’ advisory services consist of identifying and assessing potential investments,
negotiating transactions, active investment management, monitoring, and exit negotiations.
Investments predominantly target non-public companies.
Advisory services are aligned with each Fund’s investment objectives as defined in documents
such as - the private placement memorandum, limited partnership agreement, investment
advisory agreements, and side letter agreements (collectively, the “Governing Documents”).
While the firm doesn’t customize its services for individual limited partners, the investment
advice adheres to each Fund’s objectives. Limited partners generally can’t impose specific
restrictions on investments unless stipulated in side letter agreements. Limited Partners in the
Funds participate in the overall investment program for the applicable Fund and generally
cannot be excused from a particular investment.
In accordance with industry practice, Two Roads has negotiated side letters or similar
agreements with certain limited partners who make substantial commitments of capital or
were early-stage investors in the Funds, or for other reasons in the sole discretion of Two
Roads, granting them rights and/or economic preferences under the Fund’s Governing
Documents. These agreements are established at the time of the relevant limited partner’s
commitment phase and once invested in the Fund, limited partners generally cannot impose
additional investment guidelines or restrictions on such Fund. There can be no assurance that
the side letter rights granted to one or more limited partners will not, in certain cases,
disadvantage other limited partners.
The Firm does not currently participate in any Wrap Fee Programs.
As of December 31st, 2023, Two Roads reported regulatory assets under management of
approximately $337,612,049.
