The benchmark data shown is the most recent data available at this time Distributed-to-Paid In = (Amount of Distributions Received)/(Total Amount of Capital Paid-In) Environmental, Social and Governance Internal Rate of Return ("IRR") of investments at the "fund level," excludes fees paid by LPs to the General Partner such as management fees and carried interest. For investments held less than one year, Hamilton Lane nominalizes the IRR to match the hold period of the investment in order to represent a more meaningful number An analysis of the total capital invested during the given years. Includes all prior investments, realized or unrealized Peer (median by age) is calculated by taking the median IRR of similar funds (based on strategy and vintage) in Hamilton Lane's database at each quarter, which are simulated as investing at the same point in time. The length of time to break the J-curve is calculated from inception to the first time each fund generated a positive net IRR An analysis of the capital invested in realized transactions generating different multiples of invested capital Annualized Internal Rate of Return ("IRR") of investments at the LP level inclusive of fees such as management fees and carried interest paid to the General Partner The performance of the General Partner's prior investment vehicles at the net LP level, inclusive of all fees, carried interest and expenses. Performance data is as reported by the General Partner using actual capital contributions, distributions and net asset value for either all limited partners, or a sample set of limited partners, in the respective funds An analysis of the gross returns of investments in prior funds, comparing overall performance against the performance when certain 'outlier' transactions are excluded. Outliers are defined as transactions that generate exceptionally positive or negative results Calculated by taking Fund VI's monthly cash flows and investing them in the relevant Total Return Index (where all dividends are re- invested). Contributions were scaled by a factor such that the ending portfolio balance would be equal to the private equity net asset value (equal ending exposures for both portfolios). This prevents shorting of the public market equivalent portfolio in order to match the performance of an outperforming private equity portfolio. Distributions were not scaled by this factor. The IRRs were then calculated based on these adjusted cash flows. The selected PME represents the most relevant public market benchmark Analysis of the capital invested in, and performance of, the prior realized transactions according to the criteria indicated Hamilton Lane classifies investments as "realized" if it has: i) an unrealized value of less than 20% of the total value; carrying value that has been written to zero or has been previously written-off; or iii) been fully exited and the GP has no remaining interest in the company Executive Summary | General Partner | Investment Strategy | Track Record | ESG | Appendices Remaining Value-to-Paid In = (Current Net Asset Value)/(Total Amount of Capital Paid-In) Total Value-to-Paid In = (Amount of Distributions Received + Current Net Asset Value)/(Total Amount of Capital Paid-In) Georgian Growth Fund VI, LP & Georgian Alignment Fund II, LP | Page 27#29Hamilton Lane Time-Zero IRR: Write-Down Ratio: Write-Off Ratio: Definitions (cont.)
