Goldman's due diligence process begins by casting a very wide sourcing net. They have an "open door" policy in which they are willing to meet with any fund in the market rather than previewingoffering memoranda first and then deciding who to meet. Over the past 10 years more than 3,800 partnerships have been reviewed in which full due diligence has been completed on 500 (13% of thetotal) and have selected 148 managers (4% of original total) to be included in funds managed by PEG. Goldman also relies on the Goldman Sach Network which includes more than 20,000 employeesbased in over 40 countries which includes leveraged finance, capital markets, restructuring, investment banking, and merchant banking. PEG believes they can leverage their depth, experience,organizational brand and networks as a competitive advantage in sourcing potential investments. For example, of the 31 managers invested in PEP 2004 (Fund VII), 28 or over 90% wereoversubscribed.

PEP IX is Goldman Sachs' current globally diversified private equity fund-of-funds offering. The fund is the ninth PEP fund to be raised since the Private Equity Group's founding in 1996. The fund istargeting a total fund raise of approximately $1.25 to $1.75 billion. The fund will focus on investments in private equity by acquiring interests in partnerships focused on buyouts, venture capital, growthcapital, investments in distressed companies or investments in companies operating within particular industries. The Fund will also seek to make direct investments (co-investments) and purchasesecondary interests. Up to 75% of the portfolio will be invested in primary partnerships, up to 15% in secondary interests and a maximum of 25% in direct investments in portfolio companies.

Goldman raises funds every 12 to 18 months. From an L.P. perspective, they believe this reduces risk of exposure to any one vintage year and leads to a more predictable, smoother assent to a targetallocation to private equity versus making larger commitments every three to four years. PEP portfolios are typically diversified across 18 to 25 partnerships committed over a 12 to 18 month period andinvested over five or six years (capital is drawn down). Where possible attempts are made to equally weight commitments to funds. PEG takes a different approach to portfolio construction than manyof their peers in the industry. Portfolios are constructed from the bottom up with no pre-conceived allocations to partnerships based on region, industry, investment stage or other traditional allocationmethods. In general, they do not avoid very many areas of private equity and believe in a globally diversified portfolio. The two main areas of private equity that they have not included in their fundshistorically are real estate and mezzanine debt strategies. Across all of the group's prior PEP fund's the allocation by stage and region has been broadly diversified with 40% Buyout, 13% GrowthBuyout, 25% Industry Focused, 12% Distressed, 8% Venture Capital. 68% of investments have been North American, 28% Europe and the remainder Asia/Pacific and South America.

At least one senior member of PEG has to be involved in initial meeting (co-Head to VP). Following an initial meeting with a fund manager, the investment teams populate a one page initial meetingtemplate which provides details on the manager, describes the fund that is being raised, the size/strategy of the funds and lists the strengths and weaknesses of the fund. Each of these initial meetingforms is saved in their database system. For each fund that passes their intial meeting screen and are seen as promising candidates a deal team is formed which consists of at least two senior peopleand typically two junior people. The team schedules a one to two day due diligence visit to the general partner's office. Prior to the visit, they engage in significant prepatory work including reviewing allof the fund's documents, searching public records as well as media for relevant information, review fund portfolios and make initial reference check calls. The actual due diligence visit involves detaileddiscussions with both senior and junior members of the fund's investment team and a deal by deal, company by company examination of the fund's current and previous portfolios.

The due diligence visit is followed by numerous reference checks and follow on conference calls to discuss any other outstanding questions. The due diligence team then prepares a detailedinvestment memorandum. These memoranda generally include extensive descriptions of the proposed management company, fund strategies, transaction reviews, financials and cash flow models,lengthy discussions of investment considerations and transcripts of reference checks. The investment memoranda are presented and thoroughly reviewed by the 10 member PEG InvestmentCommittee who formally approves (or declines) all investment opportunities.

Upon completion of each step of the due diligence process, the fund is presented to Hamilton Lane's Investment Committee for approval or rejection before moving on to the next stage of due diligence.Hamilton Lane believes that this process provides the Investment Committee with a very broad market perspective of funds in all different strategies of the private equity market. They also believe thisprocess allows for consensus building that addresses issues or concerns that may arise from committee members as the potential investment makes its way through the process. A final approval of aninvestment requires majority approval from the Investment Committee.

At that time, if elected to move forward, a detailed questionnaire is issued to the fund manager for completion. The response to the questionnaire forms the basis of the full due diligence report. Onaverage, anywhere between 75-125 groups receive questionnaire requests. Following the review of the submitted questionnaire, a deal team conducts a day-long site visit at the fund manager's officeto go through in detail their track record, portfolio companies and investment strategy/philosophy. Site visits allow them to meet and evaluate the entire team from junior to senior investmentprofessionals. The team will typically conduct between 75-100 site visits per year. The process concludes with a final investment report that is the culmination of all preceding efforts and provides detailson the manager's performance, merits and issues as well as in-depth analysis of the portfolio. In addition to the steps outlined above, they make extensive reference calls as part of the due diligenceprocess, including calls to senior executives from current and former portfolio companies and sources not listed by the general partners. Reference calls allow them to develop an understanding of thecharacter of the individuals that comprise the general partner.

Hamilton Lane Private Equity Fund VI is a globally diversified private equity fund-of-funds. The goal of the fund is to generate top quartile risk-adjusted returns through the construction of a diversifiedportfolio of private equity assets. Hamilton Lane intends to place the fund's capital in all major sub-asset classes of private equity (buyouts, venture capital, special situations, secondaries and co-investments); across all major geographic regions including the United States, Canada, Japan, Western Europe and others; across a diversified set of fund managers to generate broad industryexposure through the underlying companies and in both partnership opportunities (primary and secondary) as well as direct transactions through co-investments.

Hamilton Lane's due diligence process is multi-tiered and places significant emphasis on those elements of risk and financial analysis that distinguish private equity from more conventional assetclasses. Their approach is designed to ensure that every important area of analysis is thoroughly reviewed. Hamilton Lane believes that with their "global footprint", size, scale, reputation and prominentclient base, they are positioned as a "first call" among fund managers seeking to raise capital regardless of size, focus or geography. There are five basic steps to Hamilton Lane's due diligenceprocess. The first step is inital screening of PPM's and manager data. On an annual basis, the team typically reviews between 350-550 offerings. In 2005, the group reviewed nearly 500 fund managers.Following initial screens, they meet with the fund manager in one of their offices allowing members of their investment team to ask questions directly regarding the group's nvestment philosophy,process and view of the market opportunity. They typically perform 175-250 meetings every year. Thorough due diligence notes are taken and then presented to the Investment Committee for fullreview.

Hamilton Lane expects to invest Fund VI across 25-35 underlying fund managers and gain additional diversification through secondary transactions and co-investments. The fund has a commitmentperiod of four years to allow flexibility in deploying committed assets to partnerships and expects an investment period of roughly five years. In terms of portfolio construction by stage, Hamilton expectsto allocate approximately 30% to large buyouts, 15% mid-market buyouts, 20% small buyout, 25% special situations and 10% venture capital. Special situations includes specialty, multi-stage,mezzanine and distressed debt. It is expected that 75% of assets will be invested in primary investments, 15% in direct/co-investments and 10% secondary investments. The fund will be diversifiedacross region with 75% expected to be allocated to United States partnerships and portfolio companies, 15% to Western Europe, and 10% to the rest of the world (includes Eastern Europe, Australiaand Asia).

HarbourVest's investment team as a whole is responsible for all due diligence, investment decisions and client service. Within the team, associates and senior associates typically focus on detailed analysisand industry research as part of the due diligence process while vice presidents, principals and managing directors dedicate a majority of their time to deal sourcing and monitoring, portfolio construction andinvestor relations. The Managing Directors make final decisions on a consensus basis with every office and every individual participating in all decisions. The Managing Directors are asked to vote on eachdeal and team decision.

The decision to make an investment (direct company, partnership or secondary) requires the consent of a group of HarbourVest investment professionals in at least four different meetings. Every Monday, allof the senior investment professionals attend their staff meeting. In addition, each specific investment group (direct team, partnership team, secondary team) meets on a weekly basis. Prior to any approval,all investment opportunities undergo the following: 1) The opportunity is vetted with the specific team meeting; 2) If approved at the team meeting, the opportunity is then brought to the weekly staff meetingseveral different times for initial review, additional review and a final decision. The initial review occurs after the deal has been initially vetted at the indiviudal team meeting. The purpose of the initial review isto introduce the opportunity to HarbourVest's senior investment staff. At this meeting the deal team circulates a thorough internal memorandum describing the opportunity to the investment professionals. Adecision is made to either decline the investment or to begin extensive due diligence.

HarbourVest Partners VIII investment program is a broadly diversified private equity fund-of-funds program.

During the due diligence process Pantheon looks for experienced teams composed of outstanding general partners with proprietary knowledge and deal flow, a well defined and realistic investmentstrategy as well as a decision-making process that is compatible with the background of the general partners. They also look for firms with a strong balance of operating, financial, and marketingskills who have operated successfully as a team ideally for several years. They will consider new funds or spin-offs where the general partners are experienced. They target firms who generateproprietary, high quality deal flow and who originate as well as lead a high proportion of their investments. They prefer partners responsible for no more than five to eight portfolio investments eachdepending on stage. They also key into the compensation structure of key professionals and look for firms that have employees motivated by carried interest rather than fee income. There must alsobe a rationale split of the carried interest between the general partners. When gathering information, Pantheon does not rely on questionnaires; rather, they prefer to derive unique insights throughface-to-face meetings and proprietary research.

The primary team monitors the due diligence process and decides at each successive stage whether to continue. When the due diligence is complete, the Regional Investment Committee mustreach full consensus to approve an investment. The matter is then referred to the IMC for final review. More than 50% of the IMC must agree before an investment is approved. The legal aspects ofall opportunities are reviewed in parallel with investment due diligence, allowing them to identify any potential issues early in the process.

Pantheon's USA Fund VII is a diversified fund-of-funds focused on partnership investments (primarily North America) across buyouts, venture capital and special situations. The fund is allowed up to20% in secondary interests. Dedicated international exposure can be achieved through Pantheon's Europe fund-of-funds which invests roughly 80-85% in European buyouts, 10-15% in Europeanventure capital and the remainder in special situations.

Pantheon adopts a quantitative and qualitative approach to investment selection, which includes bottom-up and top-down approaches to investment evaluation and due diligence. Pantheon'sselection process takes into account the changing landscape of the global private equity marketplace as well as individual fund characteristics to evaluate whether opportunities combine asustainable strategy with the potential to deliver superior returns. Pantheon's top-down allocations reflect their strategy of creating portfolios diversified by fund stage, manager, vintage year, industrysector and geographic region. The firm has a concensus-based 6-stage process for manager selection, review and recommendation. During the first stage all potential opportunities are assessed bya local investment professional whether in offices in the U.S. or in the U.K. for example. Opportunities are then reviewed by Pantheon's regional teams who meet every week. Many proposals arerejected by the regional teams at this stage. If a positive concensus is achieved, the Firm's Investment Management Committee (IMC) is given an early opportunity to review and provide feedback onthe investment via an "advanced notice".

Pantheon expects to invest in approximately 50 to 60 partnerships. Investor capital is typically committed to funds over a three to five year period and underlying managers invest capital over a threeto six year investment period. In addition, Pantheon diversifies investments into prior vintage years with the purchase of selected secondary interests. Pantheon diversifies its portfolios by stageincluding early to late stage venture capital; leveraged buyouts and growth capital; and special situations (including energy funds, turnaround and mezzanine funds). The expected target allocationsrange between 25-35% venture capital, 55-65% buyouts, 0-10% special situations. The fund can also invest up to 20% in secondaries subject to availability.

An investment professional is assigned to monitor the investment after it is made and is supported by the team that has been assigned to service the client. This combination of team members allowsPA to maintain the long-term relationship with the fund sponsor, but also allows check and balances to be in place. Again, PA's Investment Committee must unanimously approve an investmentbefore a commitment is made on behalf of its clients and fund-of-funds.

All due dligence and investment activities are performed by full-time employees of PA. PA follows a multi-stage due diligence process to effectively sort through hundreds of private equity investment opportunities each year for inclusion in their fund-of-funds and portfolios for their separate account advisory clients. As a result of providing PRIVELEGe portfolio administration to a large group of private equity investors representing more than $50 billion in assets including 2,200 partnerships of more than 750 sponsors and 200 direct investments, they utilize this database to "see the market" and compare and contrast returns and qualitative information. On average, PA sources over 300 investment proposals and through its initial screening, rejects approximately 60% and meets the remaining 40% of investment managers. The next step of the process is to conduct in-person meetings with the managers. If it is determined during this stage that a proposed investment satisfies their criteria the potential investment advances to the third stage of the process. Of the 100 to 125 funds per year that are reviewed during the second stage, approximately 50% progress to the next stage.The objective of the next stage of due diligence is to determine whether the potential investment meets the key criteria. They conduct thorough interviews with the management and staff as well as perform reference checks with other sponsors, prior investors, executives of portfolio companies etc. They conduct a thorough review of the manager's due diligence process, valuation guidelines, record keeping, reporting functions and compliance/audits. Approximately 40-50% of the 60-70 funds reviewed annually advance to the final stage where a commitment is made. PA typically invests in approximately 10% of the deals that it reviews annually to satisfy the needs of all clients. Only 5% of the deals are required to fully invest PAPEF.

It is the responsibility of the deal team executing full due diligence to conduct on-site visits at the general partners' offices and reference checks on the firm and its principals with past and presentmanagement teams. Additionally, the deal team is responsible for writing the investment memorandum that will be circulated to the Investment Committee members for discussion in the InvestmentCommittee meeting held every Monday. The Committee must unanimously approve an investment before the deal team closes on the investment for each of PA's clients.

Portfolio Advisors Private Equity Fund V (PAPEF V) is a globally diversified private equity fund-of-funds. Fund V is a "menu-driven" fund-of-funds allowing investors to choose a customized allocationamong four fund-of-funds strategies - buyouts, venture capital, special situations and international (European buyout fund). The funds may invest in secondary partnership interests as well. As with itsprior fund offerings, Portfolio Advisors will seek to invest with top-tier primary funds and opportunistically purchase secondary fund interests while maintaining one of the lowest fee structures in thefund-of-funds market. PAPEF series of funds do not make direct investments or co-investments.

The manager screening process begins with a research team of nine investment professionals (five Vice Presidents and four Associates) who are responsible for reviewing the investment memorandareceived by PA. These memoranda are logged into PA's electronic deal log and an initial screening is performed. Deals meeting the screening are funneled up to PA's Investment Committee forpreliminary discussions. If the Investment Committee decides that a group merits further attention, an initial meeting is set up at PA to determine if further due diligence is warranted. If the InvestmentCommittee decides after further due diligence that a full review should be commenced on an investment opportunity, a deal team of three to five of PA's investment professionals is assigned to thedeal, including at least one member of the Investment Committee.

Commitments will be made to underlying funds over a period of three years from Fund V's initial closing and expect an investment period of between three to six years. Additional time diversifcationcan be achieved through secondary investments. Within the Buyouts fund it is expected that primary investments will be balanced between large as well as small/middle market buyouts. The VentureCapital fund is expected to be tilted toward late stage venture capital and diversified across early stage and multi-stage partnerships. Special Situations typically will consists ofmezzanine/subordinated debt, restructuring/distressed debt, pooled secondary transactions, as well as multi-strategy/opportunistic partnerships. The allocations in this portfolio are expected to bedistributed fairly evenly with the highest weighting oriented toward distressed debt partnerships. Within the European buyouts portfolio, it is expected that greater than 80% will be allocated to WesternEurope.
