PRIVATE EQUITYINDEX AND SELECTED BENCHMARK STATISTICSJUNE 30, 2019

PRIVATE EQUITYNOTE ON UPCOMING PRIVATE EQUITY CHANGESAS OF JUNE 30, 2019Beginning in Q1 2019, we have reconfigured the asset class constituents of the CA Private Equity (PE) benchmark. The PE benchmarks nowinclude only Buyout and Growth Equity funds, and exclude Private Equity Energy and Subordinated Capital strategies.As the private investments landscape continues to evolve, strategies once considered a part of the PE benchmark grouping have becomemore distinct. Historically, the private equity grouping has been comprised of four asset classes: Buyouts, Growth Equity, Private EquityEnergy, and Subordinated Capital. The focus on Buyout and Growth Equity funds is to better represent the private equity asset class; theremoved strategies are established independent strategies in their own right and should be analyzed separately. As a result of thisreconfiguration, Private Equity Energy now belongs to one benchmark group, Natural Resources, and Subordinated Capital now belongs toone benchmark group, Private Credit.Please reach out to privatebenchmarks@cambridgeassociates.com with any questions.page 1

PRIVATE EQUITYDISCLAIMERAS OF JUNE 30, 2019DISCLAIMEROur goal is to provide you with the most accurate and relevant performance information possible; as a result, Cambridge Associates’ researchorganization continually monitors the constantly evolving private investments space and its fund managers. When we discern materialchanges in the structure of an asset class and/or a fund’s investment strategy, it is in the interest of all users of our benchmark statistics thatwe implement the appropriate classification realignments.In addition, Cambridge Associates is always working to grow our private investments performance database and ensure that our benchmarksare as representative as possible of investors’ institutional-quality opportunity set. As a result we continually add funds to the database (bothnewly-raised funds and backfill funds) and occasionally we must remove funds that cease reporting. Our private investments performancedatabase is dynamic and will reflect both classification adjustments and changes to the underlying pool of contributing funds. As a result, youmay notice quarter to quarter changes in the results of some historical benchmark return analyses.page 2

PRIVATE EQUITYOVERVIEWAS OF JUNE 30, 2019Cambridge Associates’ Private Investments Database is one of the most robust collections of institutional quality private fund performance. Itcontains the historical performance records of over 2,000 fund managers and their over 7,700 funds. In addition, we capture the performanceinformation (gross) of over 78,000 investments underlying our venture capital, growth equity, and buyout funds. This is one of the largestcollections of portfolio-level performance information in the world and represents the investments of approximately 78% of these funds on acount basis and 84% on a total commitment basis. This fund and investment-level performance information is drawn from the quarterly andaudited annual financial statements of the fund managers and each manager’s reported performance numbers are independently recreatedfrom the financial statements and verified by Cambridge Associates.Institutional Quality DataCambridge Associates strives to include only institutional quality funds in our benchmarks. “Institutional quality” funds, in our definition, tendto meet the following criteria: closed-end funds, commingled funds that invest 3rd party capital (we exclude firms that invest off of theirbalance sheet, such as a bank’s principal investing group or a corporate’s venture capital arm), and fund vehicles. This institutional qualityscreen seeks to provide investors with performance data consistent with their investible opportunity set.Sources of Benchmark DataOur benchmark database utilizes the quarterly unaudited and annual audited fund financial statements produced by the fund managers (GPs)for their Limited Partners (LPs). These documents are provided to Cambridge Associates by the fund managers themselves. Unlike other dataproviders, Cambridge Associates does not use Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, regulatory filings, manager surveys, or press“scrapings” to obtain information. Our goal is to have a complete historical record of the quarterly cash flows and net asset values for all fundsin the benchmarks. We use a number of paths to encourage fund managers to submit their performance data to our database: our clients forwhom we provide private investment performance reporting, our research organization’s regular meetings with thousands of managers, ourspecial projects designed to enhance existing benchmarks or launch new ones, our exclusive relationships with over ten globally-diverse fundmanager associations, and finally, our exclusive relationships with Thomson Reuters and the Institutional Limited Partners Association (ILPA).By leveraging these varied sources and proprietary relationships, Cambridge Associates has constructed a rich and diversified benchmark dataset.Vintage Year DefinitionVintage year is defined as the legal inception date as noted in a fund's financial statement. This date can usually be found in the first note tothe audited financial statements and is prior to the first close or capital call.page 3

PRIVATE EQUITYTIMING OF FINAL BENCHMARKS AND DATA EVOLUTIONAS OF JUNE 30, 2019The Cambridge Associates’ benchmarks are reported on a one-quarter lag from the end of the performance quarter due to the reporting timeframe of private investments fund managers.Published Data: When the vast majority of a benchmark group’s (organized by asset class, e.g. Venture Capital or Real Estate) performanceinformation is updated for a performance quarter, that benchmark is considered final and the data is “published” via the quarterly benchmarkreports.Changes to Data: After a benchmark group is published, any updates to historical data for these funds, which can include adding a fund and itsperformance history to the database (“backfills”) and/or updating past information for an existing fund due to late-arriving, updated, orrefined information, would be reflected when that group is published for the next performance quarter.In addition, Cambridge Associates may change the classification of certain funds; this often driven by the evolution of private investments andthe resulting need to introduce new benchmarks or refine our classification scheme. For example, as growth equity emerged as an asset classwe reclassified certain venture capital and buyout funds accordingly.Survivorship Bias: In order to track the performance of a fund in our benchmarks, we require the complete set of financial statements fromthe fund’s inception to the most current reporting date. When an active fund stops providing financial statements, we reach out to themanager and make several attempts to encourage them to continue to submit their data. We may, during this communication period, rollforward the fund’s last reported quarter’s net asset value (NAV) for several quarters. When we are convinced that the manager will notresume reporting to us, the fund’s entire performance history is removed from the database.When fund managers stop reporting before their fund’s return history is complete, an element of “survivorship bias” may be introduced to aperformance database, which could skew the reported returns upwards if the funds dropping out had poorer returns than those funds thatremained. Survivorship bias can affect all investment manager databases, including those for public stock managers and hedge funds.Compared to public stocks and hedge funds, however, the illiquid nature of private investments can actually help limit this survivorship effect.Whereas an underperforming stock manager may simply close up shop or drop out of databases as clients liquidate their positions and fire themanager, private investment partnerships owning illiquid assets continue to exist and require reporting to the limited partners, even if theoriginal manager ceases to exist.Over the last ten years the number of fund managers that stopped reporting to Cambridge Associates before liquidation represented anaverage of 0.7% (per year) of the total number of funds in the database during the respective year, and an average of 0.5% (per year) as apercentage of total NAV in the database during that respective year. During that same period the overall number of funds in our databaseincreased by an average of 7% (per year). The performance of the small number of funds that have stopped reporting has been spreadamongst all quartiles and has not been concentrated consistently in the poorer performing quartiles.page 4

The timing and magnitude of fund cash flows are integral to theIRR performance calculation. Public indexes are average annual compounded return (AACR) calculations which are time weighted measures over the specified time horizon, and areshown for reference and directional purposes only. Due to the fundamental differences between the two calculations, direct comparison of IRRs to AACRs is not recommended. For amore accurate means of comparing private investment performance relative to public alternatives, see the analyses in this document using CA Modified Public Market Equivalent(mPME).
