In some cases, private equity professionals from other firms or other services professionals will also be investors in the VMG Funds. C. Services Tailored to Individual Needs of Clients VMG’s advisory services are geared to the management of the VMG Funds, which are tailored to the investment objectives, parameters and restrictions of which are disclosed to investors in the applicable governing agreements before they invest. Investment restrictions applicable to specific VMG Funds are customarily imposed in the governing agreements for such VMG Funds, as agreed upon with investors. VMG or certain affiliates have entered, and may also in the future enter, into side letters or other writings with specific investors in VMG Funds which have the effect of establishing rights under, or altering or supplementing, the terms of the governing agreements of the VMG Funds, in respect of the investor to whom such letter or writing is addressed. Except to the extent required by applicable law, any rights established, or any terms altered or supplemented, will govern only that investor and not a VMG Fund as a whole. Such side letters impose restrictions on participation in certain investments or types of investments made by the VMG Funds (in the event a VMG Fund pursues such an investment, the indirect ownership percentage of the VMG Fund’s other investors in such investment will be greater than their pro rata share of the VMG Fund), and also provide benefits to certain investors in a VMG Fund not provided to investors in such VMG Fund generally (for example, adjustments to fees or other economics, access to information, ability to transfer interests in a VMG Fund or compliance with specified laws or regulations), except as otherwise provided by applicable law. Subject to applicable law, disclosure of applicable side letter practices is made to investors prior to their investment in the applicable VMG Fund. D.
