 Underlying Fund’s investment, technology related products and services are subject to attrition of subscription risk in the absence of continued innovation and product investments versus other industries. Thus, the ultimate success of these companies often depends on their ability to continually develop their product offerings in increasingly competitive markets. If they are unable to do so, an Underlying Fund’s investment returns could be adversely affected. 62 Portfolio companies in which an Underlying Fund may invest may be unable to acquire or develop successful new applications due to, among others, liquidity constraints, competition, inadequate personnel, the intellectual property they currently hold not remaining viable and limited access to suppliers or manufacturers of necessary components or products. Even if such portfolio companies are able to develop commercially viable products, the market for new products and services is highly competitive and rapidly changing. Neither such portfolio companies nor an Underlying Fund will have any control over the pace of technology development. The growth of certain technology sectors is impacted by new or changing regulatory matters, which may result in an Underlying Fund’s portfolio investments in such sectors being subject to requirements that necessitate additional investments in products or render existing products as less commercially valuable. In addition, litigation regarding intellectual property rights is common in the sectors of the technology industry on which an Underlying Fund intends to focus. Any of these factors could materially and adversely affect the operations of a portfolio company in this industry and, in turn, impair its ability to service its debt obligations to an Underlying Fund. Need for Follow-OnInvestments An Underlying Fund may be called upon to provide follow-onfunding or additional loans for, or have the opportunity to increase its investment in, its portfolio companies. There can be no assurance that an Underlying Fund will be able to make or arrange for follow-oninvestments or loans or that an Underlying Fund will have sufficient funds to do so. Any decision not to make follow-oninvestments or loans or the inability to make them may have a substantial negative impact on a portfolio company in need of funds or may diminish an Underlying Fund’s proportionate ownership in such entity and thus its ability to influence the entity’s future conduct. The inability to make follow-oninvestments or loans may also impede, diminish or reduce the number of attractive investments made available to an Underlying Fund. Litigation Risks An Underlying Fund will be subject to a variety of litigation risks, particularly if one or more of its portfolio companies face financial or other difficulties. Legal disputes, involving any or all of an Underlying Fund, an Underlying Fund’s investment adviser
