6 Important Notes For Eligible Investors Only The Common Fund for Nonprofit Organizations ( Commonfund ) was established in 1971 and manages investment funds primarily for nonprofit institutions and other qualified investors. The following Commonfund affiliate organizations are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as investment advisers: Commonfund Asset Management Company, Inc. ( Comanco ), Commonfund Capital, Inc. ( CCI ), and Commonfund Realty, Inc. ( CRI ) Additional information regarding Commonfund and its affiliates policies and procedures for calculating and reporting performance is available upon request. Comanco and CRI claim compliance with the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS ). To obtain a presentation that complies with GIPS requirements and/or a list and description of Commonfund s composites, please contact t Commonfund at or This document is intended only for qualified, preexisting investors in CCI, CRI, and Comanco programs, Members of The Common Fund For Nonprofit Organizations ( Commonfund ), or other eligible institutional investors approved by Commonfund Securities, Inc. It is not intended to constitute an offer to sell, nor the solicitation of an offer to buy, securities. Any such offerings will be made only by means of information memoranda and related subscription documents that will be made available by Commonfund Securities, Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CCI, CRI and Comanco) only at the time an offering is in progress and only to investors qualified and eligible to invest. Past performance is not indicative of future results. All investments have the potential for profit and the possibility of loss. Similarly, our access to particular managers may vary in the future and cannot be guaranteed. Returns on funds are presented net of all fees. Performance includes reinvestment of dividends. Internal Rates of Return should be evaluated in light of information on the investment program of the partnership, the risks associated therewith, and performance of the partnership as disclosed in the Information Memorandum for the partnership, the Annual Reports of Commonfund Capital, Inc. and the partnership and the Quarterly Reports of the partnership. p. Commonfund o Capital, Inc. presents return information for its partnerships on a dollar-weighted (e.g., internal rate of return) rather than the time-weighted (e.g., annual or other period rate of return) basis, which is used principally to report performance of publicly-traded securities. The internal rate of return since inception is the most commonly used calculation methodology used for presentation of performance in the private capital business. Comparison of returns calculated on an IRR basis with returns on a time-weighted basis is not appropriate. For a description of the two return calculation methods see Measuring Investment Returns, Time vs. Dollar-Weighted What s the Difference?, a copy is available from Commonfund Capital. Gross performance results do not reflect the deduction of investment advisory fees and other fees as disclosed in Form ADV on file with the SEC.
