(1) Monthly performance data are based on management’s estimates as of the date hereof for performance of the referenced funds from October 1, 2011 to October 31, 2011. Such data may change upon completion of the Company’s month-end valuation procedures. Any changes could be material.
(2) Net return represents a composite of the average return of the feeder funds that comprise each of the Company’s most significant master funds. Net return is presented on a total return basis, net of all fees and expenses (except incentive income on certain unrealized gains attributable to private investments that could reduce returns on these investments at the time of realization) and includes the reinvestment of all dividends and other income. Performance includes realized and unrealized gains and losses attributable to certain private and initial public offering investments that are not allocated to all investors in the feeder funds. Investors that were not allocated private and initial public offering investments may experience materially different returns.
(3) Year-to-date performance data are based on management’s estimates as of the date hereof for performance of the referenced funds from January 1, 2011 to October 31, 2011. Such data may change upon completion of the Company’s month-end valuation procedures and any changes could be material.

In addition, the Company is disclosing to investors in the private investment funds that it manages that, as of November 1, 2011, the estimated unaudited amount of assets under management was approximately $28.9 billion, which reflects a net increase of approximately $400 million. The change in assets under management is inclusive of performance for the month ended October 31, 2011 and capital flows as of November 1, 2011.
