REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Investors and Board of Trustees of

Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund:

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements and Financial Highlights

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary (the “Fund”), including the consolidated schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2017, the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, the consolidated statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the consolidated financial highlights for each of the periods presented, and the related notes. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2017, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, the consolidated changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the consolidated financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2017, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers, and agent banks; when replies were not received from brokers and agent banks, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Year Ended December 31, 2017

1. Organization

Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund (the “Master Fund”), a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Master Fund has formed a subsidiary, Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund (Cayman) Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”), organized in the Cayman Islands, through which the Master Fund mainly invests in securities exempt from registration pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Blackstone Real Estate Income Fund (“Feeder Fund I”) and Blackstone Real Estate Income Fund II (“Feeder Fund II” and together with Feeder Fund I, the “Feeder Funds”) invest substantially all of their assets in the Master Fund. The Master Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term total return, with an emphasis on current income, by primarily investing in a broad range of real estate-related debt investments.

The Master Fund consolidates the Subsidiary in accordance with the consolidation policy discussed in Note 2. The Master Fund and Subsidiary are herein referred to collectively as the “Consolidated Master Fund”.

The investment manager of the Consolidated Master Fund and the Feeder Funds is Blackstone Real Estate Income Advisors L.L.C. (the “Investment Manager”), an investment advisor registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Board of Trustees (the “Board” and each member thereof, a “Trustee”) of the Consolidated Master Fund and the Feeder Funds supervises the conduct of the Consolidated Master Fund’s and the Feeder Funds’ affairs and, pursuant to the investment management agreements (the “Investment Management Agreements”), has engaged the Investment Manager to manage the Consolidated Master Fund’s and the Feeder Funds’ day-to-day investment activities and operations.

Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein, shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Prospectus of the Consolidated Master Fund.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Consolidated Master Fund’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are stated in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted.

The Consolidated Master Fund is an investment company in accordance with Accounting Standards Codifications 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies (“ASC 946”), which defines investment companies and prescribes specialized accounting and reporting requirements for investment companies.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Investment Manager to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The Investment Manager believes that the estimates utilized in preparing the financial statements are reasonable and prudent; however, actual results may differ from these estimates.

Consolidation

The Master Fund consolidates its investment in the Subsidiary. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements include the assets and liabilities and the results of operations of the Subsidiary listed above. All intercompany balances have been eliminated.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

For the Year Ended December 31, 2017

Valuation Policy

The Consolidated Master Fund values its investments in securities, securities sold short, derivative financial instruments and other investments (together, the “investments”) based on market quotations or at fair value. Market quotations can be obtained from third party pricing service providers or broker-dealers. The Board has established procedures for determining the fair value of investments (the “Valuation Procedures”). The Board has delegated to the Investment Manager day-to-day responsibility for implementing the Valuation Procedures. The Investment Manager provides oversight of the valuation and pricing function of the Consolidated Master Fund for all investments. The Investment Manager will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain two or more reliable quotations for each investment, and in connection therewith, will value such investments based on the average of the quotations obtained. Pursuant to the Valuation Procedures, if market quotations are not readily available (or are otherwise not reliable for a particular investment), the fair value will be determined in good faith by the Investment Manager, and such determinations shall be reported to the Board. Due to the inherent uncertainty of these estimates, estimates of fair value may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for these investments existed and the differences could be material. Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/ask information, or broker-dealer quotations). The Board has delegated to the Investment Manager the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Consolidated Master Fund’s investments and for determining whether the value of the applicable investments should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. U.S. GAAP defines the fair value as the price that Consolidated Master Fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability (i.e., the exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Valuation techniques and availability of observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and are affected by a variety of factors including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment and the state of the market place, including the existence and transparency of transactions between market participants. Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.

Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following levels within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement:

Level 1 – quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the measurement date. The Consolidated Master Fund does not adjust the quoted price for these investments.

Level 2 – quoted prices are available in markets that are not active or model inputs are based on inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable as of the measurement date.

Level 3 – pricing inputs are unobservable and include instances where there is minimal, if any, market activity for the investment. The Investment Manager, values its investments, in good faith, using valuation techniques applied on a consistent basis. The determination of fair value is based on the best available information in the circumstances and may incorporate the Investment Mangers’ own assumptions and involves significant degree of judgment, taking into consideration a combination of

24

Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

For the Year Ended December 31, 2017

internal and external factors. Due to the inherent uncertainty of these estimates, the estimates of fair value may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for these investments existed and the differences could be material.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment’s assigned level within the fair value hierarchy. In addition, in periods of market dislocation, the observability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition, as well as changes related to liquidity of investments, could cause a security to be reclassified between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.

A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Consolidated Master Fund’s major categories of investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

Fixed Income Securities

Fixed income securities, including corporate and convertible bonds, mezzanine debt, U.S. and foreign debt obligations, bank loans, and trade claims, are generally valued by broker-dealer quotations or third party pricing service providers on the basis of last available bid price. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing service providers may use broker-dealer quotations, reported trades or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models to determine the reported price. The pricing service providers’ internal models use observable inputs such as issuer details, interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risks/spreads, default rates and quoted prices for similar assets. Securities that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described above and have multiple pricing sources are categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Mortgage-related and asset-backed securities are usually issued as separate tranches, or classes, of securities within each deal. These securities are also normally valued by broker-dealer quotations or third party pricing service providers that use broker-dealer quotations or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models. The pricing models for these securities usually consider the attributes applicable to a particular class of the security (e.g., credit rating, seniority), current market data, estimated cash flows and relative market yield for each class, and incorporate deal collateral performance, as available. Mortgage-related and asset-backed securities that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described above and have multiple pricing sources are categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. Securities with only a single pricing source are categorized as Level 3.

Equity Securities

Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and ask prices on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Securities that use similar valuation techniques and inputs and are active on a listed exchange as described above are categorized as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.

Short-Term Investments

The Consolidated Master Fund considers short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less when acquired to be short-term investments. At December 31, 2017, the Consolidated Master Fund had $65,877,231 invested in JPMorgan U.S. Treasury Money Market Plus Fund (IJTXX—Institutional Class). Investments in money market funds are categorized as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy and are valued at net asset value.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

For the Year Ended December 31, 2017

Derivative Financial Instruments

Over the counter (“OTC”) derivative financial instruments, such as credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and options contracts derive their value from underlying referenced instruments or obligations, indices, reference rates, and other inputs or a combination of these factors. These contracts are normally valued by third party pricing service providers and/or based on broker dealer quotations. Depending on the product and the terms of the transaction, the value of derivative financial instruments can be estimated using a series of techniques, including, but not limited to, simulation pricing models. The pricing models use inputs that are observed from actively quoted markets such as issuer details, indices, spreads, interest rates, yield curves, dividends and exchange rates. Derivative financial instruments that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described above are categorized as Level 2

within the fair value hierarchy.

Centrally cleared swaps listed or traded on a multilateral or trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange, are normally valued by third party pricing service providers. For centrally cleared credit default swaps, the clearing facility requires its members to provide actionable levels across complete term structures. These levels along with external third party prices are used to produce daily settlement prices. Centrally cleared interest rate swaps are valued using a pricing model that references the underlying rates to produce the daily settlement price. These securities are categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Securities Sold Short

The Consolidated Master Fund may sell securities short (a “Short Sale”) from time to time. A Short Sale is a transaction whereby the Consolidated Master Fund sells securities it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market price of those securities, whereby the Consolidated Master Fund’s broker executes a stock borrow transaction to deliver the securities resulting from the Consolidated Master Fund’s Short Sale. The Consolidated Master Fund is obligated to repurchase the securities at the market price at the time of replacement. The Consolidated Master Fund’s obligations to replace the securities in connection with a Short Sale are secured by collateral.

Upon entering into a Short Sale, the Consolidated Master Fund establishes a liability which is recorded as securities sold short in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities to represent securities due under the Short Sale agreement. The Consolidated Master Fund is liable to pay any interest income earned during the period the Short Sale is open. The interest is recorded as interest on securities sold short in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Option Contracts

The Consolidated Master Fund buys or writes put and call options through listed exchanges and over-the-counter. The buyer of an option has the right to purchase (in the case of a call option) or sell (in the case of a put option) a specified quantity of a specific security or currency at a specified price prior to or on a specified expiration date. The writer of an option is exposed to the risk of loss if the market price of the underlying securities declines (in the case of a put option) or increases (in the case of a call option). The writer of an option can never profit by more than the premium paid by the buyer but can lose an unlimited amount.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts

The Consolidated Master Fund enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts from time to time to obtain investment exposure, enhance return or hedge or protect its portfolio holdings against the risk of future movements in certain foreign currency exchange rates. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are agreements between two parties to exchange a fixed quantity of one currency for another currency at an

26

Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

For the Year Ended December 31, 2017

agreed-upon price on an agreed upon future date. The market value of a forward foreign currency contract fluctuates with the changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Swap Agreements

The Consolidated Master Fund enters into swaps from time to time, which include total return, interest rate, and credit default swap agreements. Swaps are typically bilaterally negotiated agreements between the Consolidated Master Fund and a counterparty in which the Consolidated Master Fund and counterparty agree to make either periodic net payments on a specified notional amount or a net payment upon termination. Swap agreements are privately negotiated in the over-the-counter market or may be executed in a multilateral or other trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Consolidated Master Fund may enter into reverse repurchase agreements. In a reverse repurchase agreement, the Consolidated Master Fund sells securities in exchange for cash to a financial institution, the counterparty, with a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the same or substantially the same securities at an agreed upon date and price. Certain agreements have no stated maturity and can be terminated by either party at any time. Interest on the value of the reverse repurchase agreements issued and outstanding is based upon competitive market rates determined at the time of issuance. The Consolidated Master Fund may utilize reverse repurchase agreements when it is anticipated that the interest income to be earned from the investment of the proceeds of the transaction is greater than the interest expense of the transaction.

Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income

Investment transactions are recorded as of the trade date for financial reporting purposes. Income and expenses, including interest, are recorded on an accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from sale of investments are determined on the identified cost basis using the first in first out methodology.

Foreign Currency Translation

The books and records of the Consolidated Master Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars and transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded in the Consolidated Master Fund’s records at the rate prevailing when earned and recorded. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are adjusted to reflect current exchange rates and any unrealized gains (losses) are included in Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments and foreign currency translations on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The resultant exchange gains and losses upon settlement of such transactions are included in Net realized gain on investments and foreign currency translations on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Consolidated Master Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the changes in market prices of the securities.

Cash

As of December 31, 2017, the Consolidated Master Fund had $36,850,512 in cash held at a major U.S. bank.

Contingencies

Under the Consolidated Master Fund’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the “Declaration of Trust”), the Consolidated Master Fund’s officers and each Trustee are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties to the Consolidated Master Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Consolidated Master Fund may enter into contracts that

27

Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

For the Year Ended December 31, 2017

contain a variety of representations and indemnification obligations and expects the risk of loss to be remote. Each Feeder Fund bears its pro-rata share of the Consolidated Master Fund’s expenses, subject to reimbursement by the Investment Manager, pursuant to an expense limitation and reimbursement agreement between each Feeder Fund and the Investment Manager.

Income Taxes

The Consolidated Master Fund is classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. As such, each investor in the Consolidated Master Fund is treated as the owner of its proportionate share of net assets, income, expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses of the Consolidated Master Fund. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. The Consolidated Master Fund plans to file U.S. Federal and various state and local tax returns. All the Consolidated Master Fund’s assets are managed so that the Feeder Funds can satisfy the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

For the open tax years and all major jurisdictions, management of the Consolidated Master Funds has concluded that there are no uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the consolidated financial statements. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limitations on the Consolidated Master Fund’s filed U.S. federal tax returns remains open for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 through December 31, 2017.

Segregation and Collateralization

In cases in which the 1940 Act and the interpretive positions of the SEC and its staff require that the Consolidated Master Fund segregate assets in connection with certain investments (e.g., futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, swaps and options written), or transactions considered to reflect borrowings (e.g., reverse repurchase agreements), the Consolidated Master Fund will, consistent with SEC rules and/or certain interpretive guidance issued by the SEC, segregate assets or designate on its books and records cash or liquid securities having a market value at least equal to the amount that would otherwise be required to be physically segregated. Furthermore, based on requirements and agreements with certain exchanges, third party broker-dealers, futures commissions merchants and clearing organizations, a fund engaging in such transactions may have requirements to deliver/deposit cash or securities to/with an exchange, broker-dealer, futures commission merchant or clearing organization as collateral or margin for certain investments to the extent consistent with the 1940 Act and interpretive positions of the SEC and its staff. The Consolidated Master Fund may mitigate counterparty risk by contractually requiring its counterparties to post collateral under a master agreement and a credit support annex published by International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (collectively, an “ISDA Master Agreement”) implemented between the Consolidated Master Fund and each of its respective counterparties, as well as through netting provisions contained in the ISDA Master Agreement, and reaching other financial agreements between the Consolidated Master Fund and its counterparty in the ISDA Master Agreement. An ISDA Master Agreement may contain certain provisions regarding, among other things, the right parties’ general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral requirements, events of default and early termination. At December 31, 2017, the Consolidated Master Fund used the gross method of presentation in the consolidated financial statements and did not elect to offset amounts eligible for offset under enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements. Collateral pledged by the Consolidated Master Fund is segregated by the Consolidated Master Fund’s custodian and identified as such in the Consolidated Master Fund’s portfolio. Collateral can be in the form of cash or securities as agreed to by the Consolidated Master Fund and the applicable counterparty. Typically, the Consolidated Master Fund and counterparties are not permitted to sell, repledge or otherwise use the collateral they receive.

The Consolidated Master Fund manages counterparty risk by entering into agreements only with counterparties that are believed to have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring

28

Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

For the Year Ended December 31, 2017

the financial stability of those counterparties. The agreements entered into by the Consolidated Master Fund typically contain credit risk related features that are triggered under certain circumstances. Such circumstances may include agreed upon net asset value thresholds. If triggered, the counterparty may terminate the contract and any transactions thereunder.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-08, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities, which shortens the amortization period for the premium on certain callable debt securities to the earliest call date. The amendments are applicable to any purchased individual debt security with an explicit and noncontingent call feature that is callable at a fixed price on a preset date. The amendments do not impact the accounting for callable debt securities held at a discount, which will continue to be accreted to maturity. ASU 2017-08 will become effective on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted including adoption in an interim period. The amendments will be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Consolidated Master Fund is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2017-08 on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Consolidated Master Fund enters into reverse repurchase agreements with qualified banks or broker-dealers though a Master Repurchase Agreement (“MRA”). An MRA contains provisions for initiation, income payments, events of default and maintenance of securities for repurchase agreements. An MRA may also permit, upon the occurrence of an event of default by one party, the offsetting of obligations under the MRA against obligations under other agreements with the same counterparty to create one single net payment in the event of default or similar events, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of a counterparty.

Reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk that the market value of the securities purchased with the proceeds from the sale of securities received by the Consolidated Master Fund may decline below the price of the securities the Consolidated Master Fund is obligated to repurchase. They also involve the risk that the counterparty liquidates the securities delivered to it by the Consolidated Master Fund under the reverse repurchase agreement following the occurrence of an event of default under the applicable MRA by the Consolidated Master Fund. The Consolidated Master Fund’s use of reverse repurchase agreements also subjects the Consolidated Master Fund to interest costs based on the difference between the sale and repurchase price of a security involved in such a transaction. Additionally, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements entail the same risks as over-the-counter derivatives, as described in Notes 4 and 8. Securities subject to repurchase under reverse repurchase agreements are designated as such in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. Due to the short term nature of the reverse repurchase agreements, face value approximates fair value. As of December 31, 2017, the face value of open reverse repurchase agreements was $363,410,106. The weighted average daily balance of reverse repurchase agreements outstanding during the year ended December 31, 2017, was approximately $392,250,958 at a weighted average daily interest rate of 2.83% per annum.

4. Derivative Financial Instruments

In the normal course of business, the Consolidated Master Fund utilizes derivative contracts in connection with its proprietary trading activities. Investments in derivative contracts are subject to additional risks that can result in a loss of all or part of an investment. The Consolidated Master Fund’s derivative activities and exposure to derivative contracts would be classified by the following primary underlying risks: interest rate, credit, foreign currency exchange rate, commodity price, and equity price risks. In addition to its primary underlying risks, the Consolidated Master Fund is also subject to additional counterparty risk due to inability of its counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The following disclosures contain information on how the Consolidated Master Fund uses derivative contracts.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts

The Consolidated Master Fund enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts from time to time to obtain investment exposure, enhance return or hedge or protect its portfolio holdings against the risk of future movements in certain foreign currency exchange rates. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are agreements between two parties to exchange a fixed quantity of one currency for another currency at an

30

Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

For the Year Ended December 31, 2017

agreed-upon price on an agreed upon future date. The market value of a forward foreign currency contract fluctuates with the changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These contracts are valued daily and the change in market value is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on forward foreign currency exchange contracts. When a contract is closed, the Consolidated Master Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.

The use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of the securities of the Consolidated Master Fund, but it does establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. Although forward foreign currency exchange contracts may limit the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the currency being received, they also limit any potential gain that might result should the value of such currency increase. In addition, the Consolidated Master Fund could be exposed to losses if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of the contracts. The Consolidated Master Fund’s maximum potential loss from such contracts is the aggregate face value in U.S. dollars at the time the contract was opened. These contracts involve market and/or credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Consolidated Master Fund segregates liquid assets with a value equal (on a daily mark-to-market basis) to its obligations under these types of transactions, enters into offsetting transactions or otherwise covers such transactions.

Swap Agreements

The Consolidated Master Fund enters into swaps from time to time, which include total return, interest rate, and credit default swap agreements. Swaps are typically bilaterally negotiated agreements between the Consolidated Master Fund and a counterparty in which the Consolidated Master Fund and counterparty agree to make either periodic net payments on a specified notional amount or a net payment upon termination. Swap agreements are privately negotiated in the over-the-counter market or may be executed in a multilateral or other trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange.

The Consolidated Master Fund may enter into swap agreements for investment purposes or managing exposure to interest rates, credit or market risk, or for other purposes. In connection with these agreements, securities or cash (“segregated cash” or “collateral”) may be paid or received, as applicable, by the Consolidated Master Fund as collateral or margin in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements to provide assets of value and recourse in the event of default or bankruptcy/insolvency. Securities posted by the Consolidated Master Fund as collateral for swap agreements identified in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments and segregated cash, if any, are reflected on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Credit Default Swaps: The Consolidated Master Fund enters into OTC and/or centrally cleared credit default swap contracts from time to time to hedge credit risk, to hedge market risk, or to gain exposure on single name issues and/or baskets of securities. In an OTC credit default swap contract, the protection buyer typically makes an upfront payment and/or a periodic stream of payments to a counterparty, the protection seller, in exchange for the right to receive a contingent payment upon the occurrence of a “credit event” on the reference obligation or all other equally ranked obligations of the reference entity. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructurings and obligation acceleration. An upfront payment received by the Consolidated Master Fund or made by the Consolidated Master Fund is recorded as a liability or asset, respectively, in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Periodic payments received or paid by Consolidated Master Fund are recorded as realized gains or losses. OTC credit default swap contracts are marked to market daily and the change is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on swaps contracts. Upon the occurrence of a credit event, the difference between the par value and the market value of the reference obligation, net of any proportional amount of upfront payment, is recorded as a realized gain or loss on swaps contracts. With respect to selling a credit default swap, the Consolidated Master Fund will segregate assets or otherwise covers its obligations for the notional amount of such credit default swap.

For the Year Ended December 31, 2017

Interest Rate Swaps: The Consolidated Master Fund enters into OTC and/or centrally cleared interest rate swap contracts from time to time to hedge interest rate risk, to gain exposure on interest rates and to hedge prepayment risk. The Consolidated Master Fund is subject to interest rate risk exposure in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. Because the Consolidated Master Fund holds fixed rate bonds, the value of these bonds may decrease if interest rates rise. Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party pays a stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating rate, for another party’s stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating rate, on the same notional amount for a specified period of time. The Consolidated Master Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk, as opposed to investment and other types of risk, in respect of interest rate swaps is typically the discounted net value of the cash flows to be received from the counterparty over the contracts remaining life, to the extent that amount is positive.

Interest rate swaps can be purchased or sold with an upfront premium. An upfront payment received by the Consolidated Master Fund is recorded as a liability on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. An upfront payment made by the Consolidated Master Fund is recorded as an asset on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. OTC and centrally cleared interest rate swaps are marked-to-market daily and any change is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on swaps. Daily fluctuations in the value of centrally cleared interest rate swaps are recorded as a receivable or payable for variation margin on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Payments, including upfront premiums, received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses at the closing of the contract.

Total Return Swaps: The Consolidated Master Fund enters into OTC total return swap contracts from time to time to gain exposure to the investment returns on an underlying financial instrument without purchasing the financial instrument itself. In a total return swap, the Consolidated Master Fund receives the economic returns of the underlying financial instrument, inclusive of any mark to market earned from the date of such purchase of the underlying instrument, any interest earned from the settlement date of the underlying instrument less a swap financing fee, which is typically LIBOR plus a spread. The total return swap derives its value from the valuation of underlying financial instruments. The underlying financial instruments for the total return swap held at year end were loans and a bond. The swap is valued daily at current market value and any unrealized appreciation or depreciation is included in the net change in unrealized appreciation/ (depreciation) on swap contracts. Gain or loss is realized on the termination date of the swap and when periodic payments are received or made at the end of each measurement period. During the period the swap is open, the Consolidated Master Fund may be subject to risk from the potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the agreement.

Options Contracts

Purchased call or put options (“Options”) may be used to obtain economic exposure equivalent to a long or short position, respectively, or to hedge existing or anticipated portfolio positions. The Consolidated Master Fund may buy or write Options through the OTC market and listed exchanges.

The buyer has the right to purchase (in the case of a call option) or sell (in the case of a put option) a specified quantity of the underlying at a specified price prior to or on a specified expiration date. The writer of an option is exposed to the risk of loss if the price of the underlying declines (in the case of a put option) or increases (in the case of a call option).

Option contracts purchased (call or put) require the payment of premiums in exchange for the right to purchase or sell an underlying at a contracted strike price and maturity. The premium paid by the Consolidated Master Fund is recorded as an asset and is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current fair value of the option.

Option contracts sold (written calls or written puts) obligates the Consolidated Master Fund to buy or sell, within a limited time, an underlying at a contracted strike price and maturity. The writer of an option receives

a premium which is recorded as a liability and is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current fair value of the option.

Netting Arrangements

The Consolidated Master Fund uses master netting arrangements, which allows certain derivative financial instruments and collateral with the same counterparty to be offset to minimize counterparty credit exposure. The table below presents information related to derivative financial instruments that are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement (“MNA”) and are not offset, as shown in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of December 31, 2017.

The Consolidated Master Fund enters into ISDA Master Agreements which contain MNA’s that provide for payment netting and, in the case of default or similar event with respect to the counterparty to the MNA, can provide for netting across transactions. Generally, upon counterparty default, the Consolidated Master Fund can terminate all transactions under the MNA and set-off amounts it owes across all transactions under a particular MNA and against collateral under such MNA. The Consolidated Master Fund may not use derivatives contracts and related collateral governed by an ISDA to offset reverse repurchase agreements and related collateral governed by an MRA.

6. Fund Terms

Repurchases

Repurchases will be made only at such times and on such terms as may be determined by the Consolidated Master Fund’s Board, in its sole discretion.

7. Related Party Transactions

Management Fee

The Consolidated Master Fund pays the Investment Manager an aggregate fixed management fee (the “Management Fee”), payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each quarter. The Management Fee accrues monthly at an annual rate of 1.50% of the Consolidated Master Fund’s Managed Assets at the end of such month before giving effect to the Management Fee payment being calculated or any purchases or

repurchases of Consolidated Master Fund shares or any distributions by the Consolidated Master Fund. The Management Fee will reduce the net asset value of the Consolidated Master Fund (and indirectly, of the Feeder

Funds) as of the end of the accounting period in which it is payable and after the calculation of the Management Fee. Effective October 1, 2014 through December 31, 2018, the Investment Manager agreed to temporarily reduce its Management Fee to an annualized rate of 0.75% of the Consolidated Master Fund’s Managed Assets (“the Management Fee Waiver”). The Investment Manager may, in its sole discretion and at any time (including prior to December 31, 2018), elect to extend, terminate or modify its voluntary waiver. The Management Fee, after the Management Fee Waiver, was $9,922,462 for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Incentive Fee

The Consolidated Master Fund accrues a performance-based incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”) on a monthly basis throughout the fiscal year of the Consolidated Master Fund. The Incentive Fee is paid to the Investment Manager promptly after the end of each fiscal year of the Consolidated Master Fund pursuant to the Consolidated Master Fund’s investment management agreement. The Incentive Fee is determined as of the end of the fiscal year in an amount equal to 15% of the amount by which the Consolidated Master Fund’s Net Capital Appreciation (as defined below) for each Fiscal Period ending within or coterminous with the close of such fiscal year exceeds the balance of the loss carryforward account and any allocated Management Fee expense for such Fiscal Period, without duplication for any Incentive Fees paid during such fiscal year. The Consolidated Master Fund also pays the Investment Manager the Incentive Fee in the event a Fiscal Period is triggered in connection with a repurchase offer by the Consolidated Master Fund. For purposes of calculating the Incentive Fee, “Net Capital Appreciation” means, with respect to any Fiscal Period, the difference, if any, between (x) the sum of (i) the value of the Consolidated Master Fund’s net asset value at the end of that Fiscal Period (prior to the Incentive Fee for such Fiscal Period) increased by the dollar amount of the Consolidated Master Fund’s interests repurchased during the Fiscal Period (excluding repurchases as of the last day of the Fiscal Period after determination of the Incentive Fee), (ii) the amount of any dividends, distributions or withdrawals paid to shareholders during the Fiscal Period and not reinvested in the Consolidated Master Fund (excluding any dividends, distributions or withdrawals to be paid as of the last day of the Fiscal Period), and (iii) the Management Fee expense for that Fiscal Period, and (y) the sum of (i) the value of the Consolidated Master Fund’s net asset value at the beginning of that Fiscal Period (prior to the Management Fee for such Fiscal Period), increased by the dollar amount of the Consolidated Master Fund’s interests issued during the Fiscal Period (excluding any shares issued in connection with the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions paid by the Consolidated Master Fund) and (ii) the amount of any subscriptions to the Consolidated Master Fund during that Fiscal Period. All calculations of Net Capital Appreciation will be made (without duplication) after deduction of all general, administrative and other operating expenses of the Consolidated Master Fund (excluding the Incentive Fee) and any amounts necessary, in the Investment Manager’s sole discretion, as appropriate reserves for such expenses. The Consolidated Master Fund’s Incentive Fee was $14,368,615 for the year ended December 31, 2017.

RMBS Investments

In the year ended December 31, 2017, the Consolidated Master Fund and certain investment vehicles advised by affiliates of the Investment Manager (the “Other Blackstone Investment Vehicles”) purchased, in the secondary market from a third-party investment bank, one residential mortgage-backed security (“RMBS”) with a total cost basis of €106,539,902 with underlying loans owned by investment vehicles advised by affiliates of the Investment Manager (the “Loan Owners”). Such investment in the RMBS by the Consolidated Master Fund and the Other Blackstone Investment Vehicles represented a minority participation in the RMBS. The Consolidated Master Fund and the Other Blackstone Investment Vehicles will forgo all non-economic rights (including voting rights) in such RMBS as long as the Loan Owners own the underlying loans. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Consolidated Master Fund recorded interest income of $1,229,380 related to its investments in such RMBS. Such amounts were reported as a component of interest in the Consolidated Master Fund’s Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Expense Payments

Blackstone Holdings Finance Co. L.L.C. (“FINCO”), an affiliate of the Investment Manager, pays expenses on behalf of the Consolidated Master Fund from time to time. The Consolidated Master Fund reimburses FINCO for such expenses paid on behalf of the Consolidated Master Fund. FINCO does not charge any fees for providing such administrative services. The amount of $156,114 as of year-end is recorded as payable to affiliate in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

8. Financial Instruments and Off-Balance Sheet Risk

Market Risk: In the normal course of business, the Consolidated Master Fund invests in securities and enters into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit and counterparty risk). The value of securities held by the Consolidated Master Fund may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the companies whose securities are owned by the Consolidated Master Fund; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations.

Derivative Risk: The Consolidated Master Fund enters into derivatives transactions which may include, without limitation, options contracts, futures contracts, options on futures contracts, forward contracts, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, credit default swaps and other swap agreements for investment, hedging or leverage purposes. The Consolidated Master Fund’s use of derivative instruments may be particularly speculative and involves investment risks and transaction costs to which the Consolidated Master Fund would not be subject absent the use of these instruments, and the use of derivatives generally involves leverage in the sense that the investment exposure created by the derivatives may be significantly greater than the Consolidated Master Fund’s initial investment in the derivatives. Thus, the use of derivatives may result in losses in excess of principal or greater than if they had not been used. The ability to successfully use derivative instruments depends on the ability of the Investment Manager. The skills needed to employ derivatives strategies are different from those needed to select portfolio security and, in connection with such strategies, the Investment Manager must make predictions with respect to market conditions, liquidity, currency movements, market values, interest rates and other applicable factors, which may be inaccurate.

Credit and Counterparty Risk: The Consolidated Master Fund will be subject to credit risk with respect to the counterparties to its derivatives contracts (whether a clearing corporation in the case of exchange-traded instruments or another third party in the case of OTC instruments) purchased by the Consolidated Master Fund. The Investment Manager will evaluate and monitor the creditworthiness of counterparties in order to ensure that such counterparties can perform their obligations under the relevant agreements. If a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations under a derivative contract due to financial difficulties, the Consolidated Master Fund may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery under the derivative contract in a dissolution, assignment for the benefit of creditors, liquidation, winding-up, bankruptcy or other analogous proceeding. In addition, in the event of the insolvency of a counterparty to a derivative transaction, the derivative contract would typically be terminated at its fair market value. If the Consolidated Master Fund is owed this fair market value in the termination of the derivative contract and its claim is unsecured, the Consolidated Master Fund will be treated as a general creditor of such counterparty, and will not have any claim with respect to the underlying security. The Consolidated Master Fund may obtain only a limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances.

Currently, certain categories of interest rate and credit default swaps are subject to mandatory clearing, and more are expected to be cleared in the future. The counterparty risk for cleared derivatives is generally lower than for uncleared OTC derivative transactions because generally a clearing organization becomes substituted

for each counterparty to a cleared derivative contract and, in effect, guarantees the parties’ performance under the contract as each party to a trade looks only to the clearing house for performance of financial obligations. However, there can be no assurance that a clearing house, or its members, will satisfy the clearing house’s obligations to the Consolidated Master Fund. Counterparty risk with respect to certain exchange-traded and over-the counter derivatives may be further complicated by recently enacted U.S. financial reform legislation. Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Consolidated Master Fund under derivative financial instrument contracts, if any, will be reported separately in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Securities pledged as collateral, if any, for the same purpose are noted in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments.

Liquidity Risk: Some securities held by the Consolidated Master Fund may be difficult to sell, or illiquid, during times of market turmoil or otherwise. Illiquid securities may also be difficult to value. If the Consolidated Master Fund is forced to sell an illiquid asset to meet repurchase requests or other cash needs, the Consolidated Master Fund may be forced to sell at a loss or at a price lower than it could have otherwise received.

Non-Diversification Risk: The Consolidated Master Fund is classified as a “non-diversified” investment company which means that the percentage of its assets that may be invested in the securities of a single issuer is not limited by the 1940 Act. As a result, the Consolidated Master Fund’s investment portfolio may be subject to greater risk and volatility than if investments had been made in the securities of a broad range of issuers.

Additional risks associated with each type of investment are described within the respective security type notes. The Consolidated Master Fund’s prospectus includes a discussion of the principal risks of investing in the Consolidated Master Fund and indirectly in the Consolidated Master Fund.

Board Approval of the Continuance of the Investment Management Agreements

At a joint meeting (the “Meeting”) of the Boards of Trustees (collectively, the “Board” or the “Trustees”) of the Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund (the “Master Fund”), Blackstone Real Estate Income Fund (“BREIF I”) and Blackstone Real Estate Income Fund II (“BREIF II”; together with BREIF I, the “Feeder Funds”; and collectively with BREIF I and the Master Fund, the “Funds”) held in person on November 29, 2017, the Board, including the members who are not considered to be “interested persons” under the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), considered and unanimously approved the continuation of the Investment Management Agreements (the “Feeder Agreements”) between each Feeder Fund and Blackstone Real Estate Income Advisors L.L.C. (“BREIA”) and the continuation of the Investment Management Agreement (the “Master Agreement” and, with the Feeder Agreements, the “Agreements”) between the Master Fund and BREIA.

The Board received and considered information (the “Contract Renewal Information”) regarding the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the Funds by BREIA under the respective Agreements, certain portions of which are discussed below. In addition to the Contract Renewal Information, the Board received performance and other information throughout the year related to the services provided by BREIA to the Funds. The Board’s evaluation took into account the information received throughout the year and also reflected the knowledge and familiarity gained as members of the Board with respect to the services provided to the Funds by BREIA. The membership of the Boards of Trustees of the Funds is identical.

At the meeting, there was a discussion regarding the Contract Renewal Information, the terms of the Agreements, the operations of the Funds, and other relevant considerations. Prior to the meeting, the Board received a memorandum prepared by counsel to the Funds discussing its responsibilities in connection with the proposed continuation of the Agreements and the Independent Trustees separately received a memorandum as to their responsibilities in this regard from their independent counsel. The Independent Trustees met in executive session with their independent counsel at which no representatives of BREIA or Fund management were present and discussed the proposed continuation of each Agreement in light of their responsibilities. In evaluating the Agreements, the Board took into account the “master-feeder” structure and the fact that BREIA serves as investment adviser to each Fund but receives a management fee only from the Master Fund but that each Feeder Fund, as a shareholder of the Master Fund, indirectly pays a portion of the management fee paid by the Master Fund to BREIA. Following this discussion, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, determined to renew each Agreement for a term of one year on the basis of the following factors, among others:

Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services

The Trustees reviewed the investment objectives and policies of the Funds with BREIA and the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the senior personnel of the Funds, including BREIA’s portfolio management team, that were primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds. The Board noted that the Feeder Funds pursue their investment objectives through the investment of substantially all of their investable assets in the Master Fund as part of a “master-feeder” structure. The Trustees also discussed BREIA’s operations and financial condition, including BREIA’s: (1) ability to retain key personnel; (2) focus on analysis of real estate securities and real estate investments; (3) investment approach and commitment to investment principles; (4) investment in and commitment to personnel, including additional hiring and extensive training, and infrastructure, including research, risk management, and portfolio management analytics; (5) compliance efforts; (6) oversight of and distribution of the Funds’ shares; and (7) coordination and oversight of, and interaction with, service providers. The Board also noted that BREIA provides the Funds with regulatory, compliance and certain administrative services, office facilities and officers (including the chief executive, chief financial, chief legal and chief compliance officers).

In reaching its determinations regarding continuation of each Fund’s Agreement, the Board took into account that each Feeder Fund’s shareholders, in pursuing their investment goals and objectives, likely considered the reputation and the investment style, philosophy and strategy of BREIA, as well as the resources available to BREIA, in purchasing their shares.

43

Fund Performance

The Board, including the Independent Trustees, received and considered information prepared by Morningstar, Inc. (“Morningstar”), an independent provider of investment research, about performance information of the Funds (net of fees and expenses) for the 1-year, 3-year and inception to date periods ended September 30, 2017 as compared to (a) a group of nine peer funds for the 1-year period and six peer funds for the 3-year and inception to date periods selected by Morningstar in consultation with BREIA from the open-end, listed closed-end, unlisted closed-end and hedge fund universes (the “Morningstar-prepared peer group”), and (b) a custom index (the “custom benchmark”) provided by BREIA. In addition, the Board considered information about performance risk measurements of the Funds and the Morningstar-prepared peer group, such as (1) annualized return, (2) standard deviation and (3) Sharpe ratio. The Board noted that the net performance return of Feeder Fund I ranked in the second quartile within the Morningstar-prepared peer group for the 1-year period ended September 30, 2017; ranked in the first quartile in the Morningstar-prepared peer group for the 3-year period ended such date; and ranked in the second quartile for the inception to date period ended such date. The Board noted that the 1- and 3-year and inception to date net performance return of Feeder Fund II ranked in the first quartile in the Morningstar-prepared peer group. In these rankings, the first quartile represents funds with the best performance and the fourth quartile represents funds with the poorest performance. The Board considered BREIA’s advice that the investment strategy for the Master Fund and, indirectly, the Feeder Funds through their investments in the Master Fund, particularly their commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) exposure, is relatively unique compared to the rest of the small Morningstar-prepared peer group, making meaningful performance comparisons difficult. In discussing the Funds’ performance relative to the Morningstar-prepared peer group, BREIA noted, among other things, that the Master Fund’s allocation to CMBS was significantly higher than the average CMBS exposure of the other Morningstar-prepared peer group funds. BREIA also noted that the Master Fund, unlike some funds in the Morningstar-prepared peer group, hedges its interest rate exposure. The Board also noted and discussed with BREIA an investment in residential mortgage-backed securities in the Master Fund and the impact of that strategy on the Funds’ risk profile and performance. In addition to the Funds’ performance relative to the Morningstar-prepared peer group, the Board considered each Fund’s performance in absolute terms and relative to the custom benchmark. The Contract Renewal Information reported that the Feeder Funds each outperformed the custom benchmark for the 1- and 3-year and inception to date periods.

Based on the reviews and discussions of the Funds’ performance and considering other relevant factors, including those noted above, the Board concluded that, under the circumstances, continuation of each Fund’s Agreement for an additional period of one year would be consistent with the interests of the Fund and its shareholders.

Fees and Expenses

The Board noted BREIA’s prior advice and continuing belief that the nature of the master-feeder structure requires the Board to examine the combined services to each Feeder Fund and the Master Fund in order to evaluate the management fee. The Board noted that for its services under the Master Fund Agreement, BREIA receives a management fee and an incentive fee (as described below). So long as substantially all of its investable assets are invested in the Master Fund, each Feeder Fund does not directly pay a management fee to BREIA but indirectly pays its proportionate share of the Master Fund management fee and any incentive fee as a Master Fund shareholder. The Board also noted that each Feeder Fund not only incurs and pays its own direct operating expenses but also indirectly pays its share of the operating expenses of the Master Fund.

The Board, including the Independent Trustees, compared the fees and expense ratios of the Funds (before and after any fee waivers and expense reimbursements) for the year ended September 30, 2017 against fees and expense ratios of the Morningstar-prepared peer group. Specifically, the Board considered data based on information (the “Morningstar Expense Information”) provided by Morningstar indicating that (1) the net and gross expense ratios of each Fund were ranked in the fourth quartile of the Morningstar-prepared peer group and were worse (higher) than the median net and gross expense ratios, respectively; and (2) the management fee rate (before waivers) of each Fund also was ranked in the fourth quartile of the Morningstar-prepared

44

peer group and was worse (higher) than the median net management fee rate. In these rankings, expense components that are ranked in the first quartile are lowest, and therefore best, and the expense components ranked in the fourth quartile are highest, and therefore worst. The Morningstar Expense Information noted, among other things, that a primary driver of the Fund’s high relative expenses is BREIA’s incentive fee, which no other fund in the Morningstar prepared peer group has. The incentive fee is a variable cost that is incurred by a Fund only when it meets specific performance targets. The Board noted that the small number and disparate types of funds in the Morningstar-prepared peer group, including open-end and both leveraged and unleveraged closed-end funds, and the Funds’ master-feeder structure made meaningful expense comparisons difficult. The Board noted that BREIA had agreed to limit certain specified expenses (“Specified Expenses”) of the Feeder Funds (the “Expense Cap”) to no more than 0.35% per annum of the Funds’ net assets pursuant to an Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement (the “Expense Limitation Agreement”), and had voluntarily implemented a reduction of its management fee (the “Fee Waiver”) to an annualized rate of 0.75% of the Feeder Funds’ or the Master Fund’s managed assets, as the case may be, from October 1, 2014 to December 31, 2017. At the Meeting, the Board was advised by BREIA that the Expense Limitation Agreement and Fee Waiver would be extended to December 31, 2018. Under the Expense Limitation Agreement, BREIA may be reimbursed for any amount borne thereunder within three years after the year in which BREIA incurred the expense, if and when requested by BREIA, but only to the extent the expenses of the Feeder Funds (including the Funds’ pro rata share of the Master Fund’s specified expenses) are less than the lower of the Expense Cap or any expense limitation agreement then in effect with respect to the Specified Expenses. Any such reimbursement may not raise the level of Specified Expenses of the Feeder Funds (including the Feeder Funds’ pro rata share of the Master Fund’s specified expenses) in the month of repayment to exceed the Expense Cap. Any such recapture or reimbursement is hereinafter referred to as an “Expense Recovery.”

Taking all of the above into consideration, the Board determined that the management fees of the Funds were reasonable in light of the nature, extent, and overall quality of the investment management and other services provided to the Funds under the Agreements.

The Board also considered information regarding fees charged by BREIA’s affiliates to other clients investing primarily in asset classes similar to that of the Funds, and noted that such fees were comparable to those of the Funds. The Board considered the fee comparisons in light of the different services provided in managing these other types of clients, noting in particular that such clients are not subject to heightened regulatory requirements that apply to the Funds.

Profitability

As part of the Contract Renewal Information, the Board received information from BREIA as to the profitability of its relationship with the Funds for the full years 2015 and 2016 and from January 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017. In analyzing the profitability of BREIA, the Trustees considered the resources that BREIA had devoted to, and has available to support, its activities in respect of the Funds. The Trustees reviewed profitability data provided by BREIA showing revenues (including management fees net of waiver and incentive fees) and overhead expenses (including explanations of expense allocations) of each Feeder Fund (showing its proportional share of management fees and incentive fees paid by the Master Fund) separately and on a combined basis. The profitability information provided by BREIA to the Board as part of the Contract Renewal Information indicated BREIA’s profitability from its relationships with the Funds, and each Fund, was at a level not regarded by the Board as excessive in light of judicial guidance and the nature, extent, and overall quality of its services to the Funds. The Board of each Feeder Fund noted that the Expense Limitation Agreement and Fee Waiver each is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2018 and that expiration of either or both would impact BREIA’s subsequent profitability level and also that BREIA’s reported profitability from the Feeder Fund could be increased in the event of a subsequent Expense Recovery.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees discussed various financial and economic considerations relating to the arrangements with BREIA, including economies of scale. While noting that the management fees for each Fund would not

45

decrease as the level of Fund assets increased, the Trustees concluded that the management fees continue to reflect the Funds’ complex operations and the nature, extent, and quality of the investment management and other services provided by BREIA. The Board noted that the Feeder Funds do not pay any management fee directly to BREIA, but indirectly pay their proportionate share of the management fee (and any incentive fee) paid to BREIA by the Master Fund. The Board noted that it will have the opportunity to periodically reexamine whether any Fund has achieved economies of scale, as well as the appropriateness of management fees payable to BREIA, in the future.

Other Benefits

The Trustees discussed other benefits that BREIA may receive from the Funds. The Trustees noted BREIA’s advice that indicated it does not receive significant ancillary benefits as a result of its relationship with the Funds and that BREIA does not realize or utilize “soft dollar” benefits from its relationship with the Funds. The Board concluded that other benefits derived by BREIA from its relationship with the Funds, to the extent such benefits were identifiable or determinable, were reasonable in light of the nature, quality and scope of investment management and other services provided to the Funds by BREIA and the costs of providing such services.

Conclusion

The Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, in light of the foregoing and other factors that the Board deemed relevant, determined that continuation of each Fund’s Agreement would be in the interests of the Fund and its shareholders and unanimously voted to continue the Agreements for a period of one additional year. No single factor was identified by the Board as the principal factor in determining whether to approve continuation of each of the Agreements and each Board member may have attributed different weights to various factors. The Independent Trustees were represented by separate legal counsel throughout the process. Prior to voting, the Independent Trustees discussed the proposed continuation of each Agreement in a private session with their independent counsel at which no representatives of BREIA were present.

Potential Conflicts of Interest Arising from Other Accounts Managed by Portfolio Manager – as of December 31, 2017:

The Feeder Funds and the Master Fund may be subject to a number of actual and potential conflicts of interest.

Incentive Fee. The existence of the Investment Manager’s performance-based incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”) creates an incentive for the Investment Manager to make more speculative investments on behalf of the Master Fund than it would otherwise make in the absence of such performance-based compensation.

Allocation of Personnel. The Investment Manager and its affiliates will devote such time as shall be necessary to conduct the business affairs of the Master Fund in an appropriate manner. However, Blackstone personnel, including certain members of the portfolio management team, will work on other projects and/or other investment funds, vehicles and accounts sponsored, closed, managed and/or acquired by Blackstone or its affiliates on a global basis or that focus on specific types of investments (collectively, the “Other Blackstone Vehicles,” a subset of which are BREDS vehicles (the “BREDS Vehicles”), Blackstone Real Estate Partners vehicles (the “BREP Vehicles”) and Blackstone Property Partners vehicles (the “BPP Vehicles”, together with Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, Inc., the BREDS Vehicles and the BREP Vehicles, the “Other Real Estate Vehicles”)), will serve on other committees and have other responsibilities throughout Blackstone and/or its portfolio entities, and, therefore, conflicts are expected to arise in the allocation of personnel and such personnel’s time. This may include other BREDS Vehicles and/or Other Real Estate Vehicles (including, for example, the BREP Vehicles, BPP Vehicles, Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. and/or Blackstone Mortgage Trust Inc. (“BXMT”)), whether now in existence or subsequently established.

Blackstone Policies and Procedures. Specified policies and procedures implemented by Blackstone to mitigate potential conflicts of interest and address certain regulatory requirements and contractual restrictions will from time to time reduce the advantages across Blackstone’s various businesses that the Master Fund expects to draw on for purposes of pursuing attractive investment opportunities. Because Blackstone has many different businesses, including a capital markets group (the “Blackstone Capital Markets Group”), which Blackstone investment teams and portfolio entities may engage to advise and to execute debt and equity financings, it is subject to a number of actual and potential conflicts of interest, greater regulatory oversight and more legal and contractual restrictions than that to which it would otherwise be subject if it had just one line of business. In addressing these conflicts and regulatory, legal and contractual requirements across its various businesses, Blackstone has implemented certain policies and procedures (e.g., information walls) that reduce the positive firm-wide synergies the Master Fund could otherwise expect to utilize for purposes of identifying and managing attractive investments. For example, Blackstone will from time to time come into possession of material non-public information with respect to companies in which its private equity businesses, the BREP Vehicles and/or the BPP Vehicles may be considering making an investment or companies in which affiliates of Blackstone may hold an interest. As a consequence, that information, which could be of benefit to the Master Fund, might become restricted to those respective businesses and otherwise be unavailable to us. In addition, to the extent that the Blackstone real estate group is in possession of material non-public information or is otherwise restricted from trading in certain securities, the Master Fund and the Investment Manager, as part of the Blackstone real estate group, generally also will be deemed to be in possession of such information or otherwise restricted, which will likely reduce the investment opportunities available to the Master Fund, prevent the Master Fund from exiting an investment or otherwise limit its investment flexibility. Members of the investment team may also be excluded from participating in certain investment decisions or otherwise replaced because of potential conflicts with other businesses at Blackstone or other reasons, in which case the Master Fund will not benefit from their expertise and advice. Additionally, confidentiality or other agreements with or related to companies in which any Blackstone fund has or has considered making an investment or which is otherwise a client of Blackstone may provide Blackstone with information that will from time to time restrict or otherwise limit the Master Fund’s ability to make investments in such companies. Blackstone may enter into one or more strategic relationships, in certain regions or with respect to certain types of investments that, although intended to provide greater opportunities for us, may require the Master Fund to share such opportunities or otherwise limit the amount of an opportunity it can otherwise take.

Other Blackstone Businesses and Activities. As part of its regular business, Blackstone provides capital markets and advisory services. Certain Blackstone affiliates are also authorized to provide a broad range of investment banking, advisory, placement agent services and other services. Although, Blackstone does not currently provide these services, it could begin to do so in the future, which may give right to additional conflicts of interest. Shareholders will not receive a benefit from such fees. Blackstone may have relationships with, render services to or engage in transactions with government agencies and/or issuers or owners of securities that are, or are eligible to be, Master Fund investment opportunities. As a result, other employees of Blackstone may possess information relating to such issuers that is not known to the employees of the Investment Manager responsible for making investment decisions or for monitoring the Master Fund’s investments and performing the other obligations under the Master Fund Declaration of Trust. Those employees of Blackstone will not be obligated to share any such information with the Investment Manager and may be prohibited by law or contract from doing so.

As noted in the preceding paragraph, certain Blackstone affiliates are authorized to provide investment banking and advisory services, and to the extent such services are provided in the future, Blackstone and its affiliates represent potential purchasers, sellers and other involved parties, including corporations, financial buyers, management, shareholders and institutions, with respect to investments that may be suitable for the Master Fund. In such a case, Blackstone’s client would typically require Blackstone to act exclusively on its behalf, thereby precluding the Master Fund from acquiring such assets. Blackstone will be under no obligation to decline any such engagements in order to make an investment opportunity available to the Master Fund. In connection with Blackstone’s capital markets business and certain investment banking and other services Blackstone’s affiliates may provide from time to time, Blackstone may determine that there are conflicts of interest or come into possession of information that limits its ability to engage in potential transactions. The Master Fund’s activities may be constrained as a result of such conflicts of interest and Blackstone’s inability to use such information. For example, employees of Blackstone may be prohibited by law or contract from sharing information with members of the Master Fund’s investment team. Additionally, there may be circumstances in which one or more individuals associated with Blackstone will be precluded from providing services to the Investment Manager because of certain confidential information available to those individuals or to other parts of Blackstone. Blackstone is under no obligation to decline any engagements or investments in order to make an investment opportunity available to the Master Fund. The Investment Manager will consider those relationships when evaluating an investment opportunity, which may result in the Investment Manager choosing not to make such an investment due to such relationships (e.g., investments in a competitor of a client). The Master Fund may be forced to sell or hold existing investments as a result of various relationships or other relationships that Blackstone may have or transactions or investments Blackstone and its affiliates may make or have made. In certain sell-side and fundraising assignments, subject to certain limitations within the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), the seller may permit the Master Fund to act as a participant in such transactions, which would raise certain conflicts of interest inherent in such a situation (including as to the negotiation of the purchase price).

Subject to certain limitations, the Master Fund may invest in securities or instruments of the same issuers as other investment vehicles, accounts and clients of Blackstone and the Investment Manager (including certain Other Blackstone Vehicles with overlapping investment objectives) and vice versa. To the extent that the Master Fund holds interests that are different (or more senior) than those held by such Other Blackstone Vehicles, accounts and clients, the Investment Manager may be presented with decisions involving circumstances where the interests of such Other Blackstone Vehicles, other vehicles, accounts and clients are in conflict with those of the Master Fund. Furthermore, it is possible the Master Fund’s interest may be subordinated or otherwise adversely affected by virtue of such other vehicle’s, account’s or client’s involvement and actions relating to its investment. Blackstone has long-term relationships with a significant number of corporations and their senior management. In determining whether to invest in a particular transaction on behalf of the Master Fund, the Investment Manager will consider those relationships, which may result in certain transactions that the Investment Manager will not undertake on behalf of the Master Fund in view of such relationships.

Blackstone may from time to time participate in underwriting or lending syndicates with respect to portfolio entities of the Master Fund, Other Blackstone Vehicles, or otherwise be involved in the public offering and/or private placement of debt or equity securities issued by, or loan proceeds borrowed by, the Master Fund’s portfolio entities, or otherwise in arranging financing (including loans) for portfolio entities (including portfolio entities of Other Blackstone Vehicles) or advise on such transactions. Such underwritings will be on a firm commitment basis or may be on an uncommitted “best efforts” basis. A Blackstone broker-dealer will from time to time act as the managing underwriter or a member of the underwriting syndicate and purchase securities from the Master Fund or such portfolio entities or advise on such transactions. Blackstone will also from time to time, on behalf of the Master Fund or other parties to a transaction involving the Master Fund, effect transactions, including transactions in the secondary markets where it will from time to time nonetheless have a potential conflict of interest regarding the Master Fund and the other parties to those transactions

to the extent it receives commissions or other compensation from the Master Fund and such other parties. Subject to applicable law, Blackstone will from time to time receive underwriting fees, discounts, placement commissions, loan modification or restructuring fees, servicing (including loan servicing) fees, lending arrangement fees, asset/property management fees, insurance (including title insurance) fees, and consulting, monitoring, commitment, syndication, origination, organizational, financing and divestment fees (or, in each case, rebates of any such fees, whether in the form of purchase price discounts or otherwise, even in cases where Blackstone or an Other Blackstone Vehicles is purchasing debt) or other compensation with respect to the foregoing activities, which are not required to be shared with the Master Fund or the shareholders and the management fee paid to the Investment Manager (the “Management Fee”) generally will not be reduced by such amounts. Blackstone may from time to time nonetheless have a potential conflict of interest regarding the Master Fund and the other parties to those transactions to the extent it receives commissions, discounts, fees or such other compensation from such other parties. The Board of Trustees will approve any transactions in which a Blackstone broker-dealer acts as an underwriter, as broker for the Master Fund, or as dealer, broker or advisor, on the other side of a transaction with the Master Fund only where the Board of Trustees believes in good faith that such transactions are appropriate for the Master Fund. Sales of securities for the account of the Master Fund (particularly marketable securities) will from time to time be bunched or aggregated with orders for other accounts of Blackstone, including other investment partnerships. It is frequently not possible to receive the same price or execution on the entire volume of securities sold, and the various prices may be averaged which may be disadvantageous to the Master Fund. Where Blackstone serves as underwriter with respect to a portfolio entity’s securities, the Master Fund will from time to time be subject to a “lock-up” period following the offering under applicable regulations during which time its ability to sell any securities that it continues to hold is restricted. This may prejudice the Master Fund’s ability to dispose of such securities at an opportune time.

Blackstone employees, including employees working on matters related to the Investment Manager, are generally permitted to invest in alternative investment funds, real estate funds, hedge funds or other real estate investment vehicles, including potential competitors of the Master Fund. Shareholders will not receive any benefit from any such investments.

On October 1, 2015, Blackstone spun off its financial and strategic advisory services, restructuring and reorganization advisory services, and its Park Hill fund placement businesses and combined these businesses with PJT Partners Inc. (“PJT”), an independent financial advisory firm founded by Paul J. Taubman. While the combined business operates independently from Blackstone and is not an affiliate thereof, nevertheless conflicts may arise in connection with transactions between or involving the Master Fund and its portfolio entities, Blackstone or the Investment Manager on the one hand and PJT on the other. Specifically, given that PJT is no longer an affiliate of Blackstone, there may be fewer or no restrictions or limitations placed on transactions or relationships engaged in by the new advisory business as compared to the limitations or restrictions that might apply to transactions engaged in by an affiliate of Blackstone. It is expected that there will be substantial overlapping ownership between Blackstone and PJT for a considerable period of time going forward. Therefore, conflicts of interest in doing transactions involving PJT will still arise. The pre-existing relationship between Blackstone and its former personnel involved in such financial and strategic advisory services, the overlapping ownership, co-investment and other continuing arrangements, may influence Blackstone and/or the Investment Manager in deciding to select or recommend PJT to perform such services for the Investment Manager or the Master Fund (or a portfolio entity) (the cost of which will generally be borne directly or indirectly by the Master Fund or such entity, as applicable).

In addition, other present and future activities of Blackstone and its affiliates (including the Investment Manager) will from time to time give rise to additional conflicts of interest relating to the Master Fund and its investment activities. In the event that any such conflict of interest arises, the Investment Manager will attempt to resolve such conflicts in a fair and equitable manner. Investors should be aware that conflicts will not necessarily be resolved in favor of the Master Fund’s interests.

Fees for Services; Fees from Issuers. The Investment Manager and/or its affiliates may receive fees from issuers or other third parties as compensation for the arranging, underwriting, syndication or refinancing of an Investment or other additional fees, including acquisition fees, loan modification or restructuring fees, servicing (including loan servicing and special servicing) fees, administrative and/or accounting fees, and fees for advisory or asset, loan/asset management services, fees for monitoring and oversight of loans, finance matters and/or title insurance provided to issuers and/or third parties, advisory, restructuring, consulting, monitoring, commitment, syndication, origination, organizational and financing, divestment and other services. In addition, in certain cases, the Investment Manager and/or its affiliates may receive fees, from or with respect to the Master Fund’s investments and/or issuers and from unconsummated transactions, including net break-up and topping fees, net commitment fees, net transaction fees, net monitoring fees (including termination fees relating to monitoring agreements), directors’ fees and net organization, financing, divestment and similar fees. In addition, the Investment Manager and persons affiliated with the Investment Manager

may receive fees associated with capital invested by co-investors relating to Investments in which the Master Fund participates or otherwise, in connection with a joint venture in which the Master Fund participates or otherwise with respect to assets or other interests retained by a seller or other commercial counterparty with respect to which the Investment Manager performs services. In addition, as part of Blackstone’s acquisition of CT Investment Management Co., LLC (“CTIMCO”) in December 2012, the loan servicing and special servicing business formerly associated with the investment management business of BXMT is now operated as part of BREDS. Such loan servicing business may, in certain circumstances, enter into loan servicing arrangements and may receive fees with respect to the Master Fund’s investments and/or issuers of the Master Fund on customary terms and conditions. Such fees will generally be allocated pro rata among the Master Fund, Other Blackstone Vehicles, co-investment vehicles, Blackstone’s side-by-side co-investment vehicles and other participants that are participating (or intending to participate) in such Investment. Such side-by-side investments do not bear fees and generally result in the Master Fund being allocated a smaller share of an investment than would otherwise be the case in the absence of such side-by-side investment rights, although Blackstone may receive additional income in fees and performance compensation from Other Blackstone Vehicles in connection with such investments. Shareholders will not receive the benefit of any such fees. In the event break-up or topping fees are paid to Blackstone in connection with a transaction that is not ultimately consummated, co-investment vehicles that invest alongside the Master Fund will generally not be allocated any share of such break-up or topping fees; similarly, such co-investment vehicles generally do not bear their share of broken deal expenses (such as forfeited deposits, extraordinary expenses such as litigation costs and judgments and other expenses) for unconsummated transactions and such costs and expenses will generally be borne by the shareholders. Such other fees may give rise to conflicts of interest in connection with the Master Fund’s investment activities, and while the Investment Manager will seek to resolve any such conflicts in a fair and equitable manner, there is no assurance that any such conflicts will be resolved in favor of the Master Fund.

An issuer may engage Blackstone Property Management (“BPM”), a Blackstone affiliate that provides advisory, oversight, management, monitoring and related services to certain borrowers and/or issuers in which one or more affiliates of Blackstone may hold an interest located in the United Kingdom and continental Europe, and BPM may receive fees for such services at competitive market rates as confirmed by the Investment Manager from time to time.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, transactions relating to the Master Fund that require the use of a service provider will generally be allocated to service providers on the basis of best execution, the evaluation of which includes, among other considerations, such service provider’s provision of certain investment-related services and research that the Investment Manager believes to be of benefit to the Master Fund. Any such service provider transaction would also be entered into only to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. Advisors and service providers, or their affiliates, often charge different rates or have different arrangements for different types of services. Certain service providers may provide services to both the Master Fund and to Blackstone affiliates under a single arrangement or separate arrangements. To the extent services are provided under a single arrangement, the Master Fund will bear expenses under the arrangement in proportion to its assets under management or another method vis-à-vis other Blackstone affiliates under the same arrangement. With respect to service providers, for example, the fee for a given type of work may vary depending on the complexity of the matter as well as the expertise required and demands placed on the service provider. Therefore, to the extent the types of services used by the Master Fund are different from those used by Blackstone and its affiliates, the Investment Manager or its affiliates may pay different amounts or rates than those paid by us. However, the Investment Manager and its affiliates have a longstanding practice of not entering into any arrangements with advisors or service providers that could provide for lower rates or discounts than those available to us, or other Blackstone investment vehicles for the same services.

Other Blackstone Funds and Vehicles; Allocation of Investment Opportunities. Through Other Blackstone Vehicles, Blackstone currently invests and plans to continue to invest third party capital in a wide variety of mortgage loans and real estate-related debt investment opportunities on a global basis. As a result, certain Other Blackstone Vehicles have investment objectives or guidelines that overlap with those of the Feeder Funds and the Master Fund (and future Other Blackstone Vehicles may also have overlapping investment objectives and guidelines), in whole or in part. Investment opportunities that fall within such common objectives or guidelines will generally be allocated among one or more of the Master Fund and such Other Blackstone Vehicles on a basis that the Investment Manager determines to be “fair and reasonable” in good faith in its sole discretion, subject to (i) any applicable investment parameters, limitations and other contractual provisions of the Master Fund and such Other Blackstone Vehicles, (ii) the Master Fund and such Other Blackstone Vehicles having available capital with respect thereto, and (iii) legal, tax, accounting, regulatory and other considerations deemed relevant by the Investment Manager (including without limitation, Section 17 of the 1940 Act, the relative risk-return profile of the investment, the credit rating of the investment, the specific nature and terms of the investment, size and type of the investment, relative investment strategies and primary investment mandates of the Master Fund and such Other Blackstone Vehicles, the different liquidity positions and requirements of each fund or

vehicle, underwritten leverage levels of a loan, portfolio concentration considerations, when a pro rata allocation could result in de minimis or odd lot allocations, historical and anticipated redemption, withdrawal or repurchase requirement requests from a client, fund and/or vehicle and anticipated future contributions or subscriptions into an account, contractual obligations, other anticipated uses of capital, the source of the investment opportunity, credit ratings of a commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) investment, the ability of a client, fund and/or vehicle to employ leverage, hedging, derivatives, syndication strategy or other similar strategies in connection with acquiring, holding or disposing of the particular investment opportunity, any requirements or other terms of any existing leverage facilities, geographic focus, size and length of unfunded deal-level commitments, applicable co-investment arrangements and other considerations deemed relevant in good faith by the Investment Manager in its sole discretion). In particular, investment opportunities with respect to which Blackstone makes a good faith determination that such opportunity is not expected to yield returns on investment within the range of returns expected to be provided by the investments in which the Master Fund was organized to invest, based on the terms thereof and the information available relating to such opportunity at the time of its evaluation by Blackstone, may not be allocated to the Master Fund. The allocation methodology applied between the Master Fund and one or more Other Blackstone Vehicles may result in the Master Fund not participating (and/or not participating to the same extent) in certain investment opportunities in which the Master Fund would have otherwise participated had the related allocations been determined without regard to such guidelines and/or based only on the circumstances of those particular investments. In addition, the manner in which the available capital of the Master Fund is determined may differ from, or subsequently change with respect to, Other Blackstone Vehicles.

The Incentive Fee and/or Management Fee paid by the Master Fund may be less than or exceed the amount of carried interest charged and/or management fees paid by an Other Blackstone Vehicles. Such variation may create an incentive for Blackstone to allocate a greater percentage of an investment opportunity to the Master Fund or such Other Blackstone Vehicles, as the case may be.

A portion of each investment may be allocated to Blackstone and its affiliates. Certain Other Blackstone Vehicles and other affiliated entities may participate in such investment opportunities through Blackstone’s side-by-side co-investment rights.

Investments in Which Other Blackstone Vehicles Have a Different Principal Investment. The Master Fund also co-invests with Other Blackstone Vehicles in investments that are suitable for the Master Fund and such Other Blackstone Vehicles. When structuring any co-investment by the Master Fund with Other Blackstone Vehicles, the Investment Manager and its affiliates will only negotiate price-related terms in accordance with Section 17 of the 1940 Act and related guidance and interpretations issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Feeder Funds and the Master Fund are currently seeking investment relief from the SEC to engage in co-investment transactions with affiliates of the Investment Manager. However, there can be no assurance that the Feeder Funds and the Master Fund will obtain such exemptive relief. Even if the Feeder Funds and the Master Fund receive exemptive relief, the Investment Manager’s affiliates will not be obligated to offer the Feeder Funds or the Master Fund the right to participate in any transactions originated by them. The Master Fund and/or the Other Blackstone Vehicles may make and/or hold investments at different levels of an issuer’s capital structure, including the Master Fund making one or more investments directly or indirectly relating to portfolio entities of Other Blackstone Vehicles and vice versa. Other Blackstone Vehicles may also participate in a separate tranche of a debt instrument or financing with respect to an issuer/borrower in which the Master Fund has an interest or otherwise in different classes of such issuer’s securities and vice versa. Such investments inherently give rise to potential or actual conflicts of interest or perceived conflicts of interest between or among the various classes of securities that may be held by such entities.

In addition, in connection with any such investments in which the Master Fund participates alongside any such Other Blackstone Vehicles, the Investment Manager will likely grant absolutely to, and/or share with, such Other Blackstone Vehicles certain rights relating to such investments for legal, tax, regulatory or other reasons, including certain control- and/or foreclosure-related rights with respect to such investments and/or otherwise agree to implement certain procedures to mitigate conflicts of interest which typically involve maintaining a non-controlling interest in any such investment and a forbearance of rights, including certain non-economic rights, relating to the Master Fund (including following the vote of other third party lenders generally (or otherwise recusing itself with respect to decisions, including with respect to defaults, foreclosures, workouts, restructurings and/or exit opportunities)), subject to certain limitations. While it is expected that the participation of the Master Fund in connection with any such investments and transactions are expected to be negotiated by third parties on market prices, such investments and transactions will give rise to potential or actual conflicts of interest. There can be no assurance that any conflict will be resolved in favor of the Master Fund. To the extent the Master Fund holds an interest in a loan or security that is different (including with respect to their relative seniority) than those held by such Other Blackstone Vehicles (and vice versa), the Master Fund will generally have limited or no rights to participate in the decision-making with respect to the rights and actions available to the holders of the same or similar class of loan or security held by the Master Fund. In addition, the Master Fund may from time to time invest in debt securities and other obligations relating to portfolio entities of Other Blackstone Vehicles.

In that regard, to the extent the Master Fund makes or has an investment in, or, through the purchase of debt obligations becomes a lender to, a company in which an Other Blackstone Vehicle has a debt or equity investment, or if an Other Blackstone Vehicle participates in a separate tranche of a financing with respect to a portfolio entity, Blackstone will generally have conflicting loyalties between its duties to the Master Fund and to such Other Blackstone Vehicles. In that regard, actions may be taken for the Other Blackstone Vehicles that are adverse to the Master Fund (and vice versa). Moreover, the Master Fund will generally “follow the vote” of other similarly situated third party creditors (if any) in voting and governance matters where conflicts of interest exist and will have a limited ability to separately protect its investment and will be dependent upon such third parties’ actions. In addition, conflicts may arise in determining the amount of an investment, if any, to be allocated among potential investors and the respective terms thereof. There can be no assurance that the return on the Master Fund’s investment will be equivalent to or better than the returns obtained by Other Blackstone Vehicles participating in the transaction. In addition, it is anticipated that in a bankruptcy proceeding the Master Fund’s interest will likely be subordinated or otherwise adversely affected by virtue of such Other Blackstone Vehicles’ involvement and actions relating to its investment. For example, there may be more senior debt instruments issued by an entity in which the Master Fund holds or makes an investment and in such circumstances the holders of more senior classes of debt issued by such entity (which may include Other Blackstone Vehicles) may take actions for their benefit (particularly in circumstances where such entity faces financial difficulties or distress) that further subordinate or adversely impact the value of the Master Fund’s investment in such entity.

In connection with negotiating loans and bank financings in respect of Blackstone-sponsored real estate related transactions, Blackstone will generally obtain the right to participate on its own behalf (or on behalf of the BREDS Vehicles and/or vehicles that it manages) in a portion of the financings with respect to such Blackstone sponsored real estate-related transactions upon a set of terms already negotiated by and agreed with third parties. Blackstone does not believe that this arrangement has an effect on the overall terms and conditions negotiated with the arrangers of such loans other than as described in the preceding sentence. Because of the affiliation with Blackstone, the Investment Manager may have a greater incentive to invest in Blackstone-sponsored financings (as compared to real estate-related financings sponsored by other real estate firms or financial sponsors) to the extent permitted by Section 17 of the 1940 Act. Except to the extent of fees paid to the Investment Manager specifically relating to the Master Fund’s commitment or investment of capital, the shareholders will in no way receive any benefit from fees paid to any affiliate of the Investment Manager from an issuer in which any Other Blackstone Vehicle also has an interest (including, for greater certainty, any fees as a result of the provision of service by such affiliates).

In addition, the 1940 Act limits the Master Fund’s ability to enter into certain transactions with certain of Other Blackstone Vehicles. As a result of these restrictions, the Master Fund may be prohibited from buying or selling any security directly from or to any issuer of a vehicle managed by Blackstone. However, the Master Fund may under certain circumstances purchase any such portfolio company’s securities in the secondary market, which could create a conflict for the Investment Manager between its interests in the Master Fund and the issuer, in that the ability of the Investment Manager to recommend actions in the best interest of the Master Fund might be impaired. The 1940 Act also prohibits certain “joint” transactions with certain of the Master Fund’s affiliates, which could include investments in the same portfolio company (whether at the same or different times). These limitations may limit the scope of investment opportunities that would otherwise be available to the Master Fund (i.e., an investment that would otherwise be shared by the Master Fund and Other Blackstone Vehicles may not be allocated to the Master Fund).

Other Real Estate Vehicles. Blackstone reserves the right to raise, manage and/or acquire Other Real Estate Vehicles, including separate accounts, dedicated managed accounts, successor funds to the BPP Vehicles, the BREP Vehicles, the BREDS Vehicles, real estate investment trusts, investment funds formed to invest in specific geographical areas or in a specific type of investments (e.g., senior loan origination, CMBS or liquid real estate debt) and one or more managed accounts (or other similar arrangements structured through an entity) for the benefit of certain investors (or related group of investors) which, in each case, may employ investment strategies that are the same as or that overlap with those of the Master fund. The closing of an Other Real Estate Vehicle could result in the reallocation of Blackstone personnel, including reallocation of existing real estate professionals, to such Other Real Estate Vehicle. In addition, potential investments that may be suitable for the Master Fund may be directed toward such Other Real Estate Vehicle (in whole or in part) and such Other Real Estate Vehicles may receive priority allocations of investment opportunities falling within their primary investment focus. To the extent any such Other Real Estate Vehicles are closed or acquired after the date hereof, such Other Real Estate Vehicles will be considered Other Blackstone Vehicles for purposes of the allocations of investments among the Master Fund and any Other Blackstone Vehicles and, as a result, investors expressly acknowledge that the foregoing may give rise to conflicts of interest in connection with the allocation of

investment opportunities and/or result in investment opportunities that are otherwise appropriate for the Master Fund being allocated, in whole or in part, to the Other Real Estate Vehicles. There is no assurance, however, that any such conflicts arising out of the foregoing will be resolved in favor of the Master Fund.

Conflicting Fiduciary Duties to Other Blackstone Vehicles. Blackstone will likely structure certain investments as a result of which one or more Other Blackstone Vehicles (including the BREDS Vehicles and/or related vehicles) are offered the opportunity to participate in a separate debt tranche of an investment allocated to the Master Fund. In such circumstances, Blackstone owes a fiduciary duty to the Master Fund and such Other Blackstone Vehicles (as described more fully above under “Investments in Which Other Blackstone Vehicles Have a Different Principal Investment”). For example, if the Master Fund were to purchase high-yield securities or other debt instruments relating to an issuer in which Blackstone held a “mezzanine” or equity interest, Blackstone would likely, in certain instances, face a conflict of interest in respect of the advice it gives to, or the decisions made with regard to, the BREDS Vehicles and the Master Fund (e.g., with respect to the terms of such securities or other debt instruments, the enforcement of covenants, the terms of recapitalizations and the resolution of workouts or bankruptcies).

Advisors and Operating Partners. Blackstone engages and retains strategic advisors, senior advisors, consultants, operating partners and other similar professionals who are not employees or affiliates of Blackstone and who, from time to time, may receive payments from, or allocations with respect to, issuers (as well as from Blackstone or the Master Fund). In such circumstances, such payments from, or allocations with respect to, issuers and/or the Master Fund will be treated as Master Fund expenses. These strategic advisors, senior advisors, consultants, operating partners and/or other professionals often have the right or may be offered the ability to co-invest alongside the Master Fund, including in those investments in which they are involved, or otherwise participate in equity plans for management of any such issuer or invest directly in the Master Fund subject to reduced or waived management fees and/or carried interest, and such participation generally will not be considered as part of Blackstone’s side-by-side co-investment rights. Such side-by-side investments do not bear fees and generally result in the Master Fund being allocated a smaller share of an investment than would otherwise be the case in the absence of such side-by-side rights. In particular, Other Blackstone Vehicles may participate in investments alongside the Master Fund pursuant to Blackstone’s side-by-side investment rights. In both such cases, Blackstone would be eligible to receive fees and carried interest (as determined in Blackstone’s sole discretion). Additionally, and notwithstanding the foregoing, these strategic advisors, senior advisors, consultants, operating partners and/or other professionals may be (or have the preferred right to be) investors in Blackstone portfolio entities and/or Other Blackstone Vehicles, and may be permitted to participate in Blackstone’s side-by-side co-investment rights. The nature of the relationship with each of the strategic advisors, senior advisors, consultants, operating partners and/or other professionals and the amount of time devoted or required to be devoted by them varies considerably. In some cases, they provide the Investment Manager with industry-specific insights and feedback on investment themes, assist in transaction due diligence, make introductions to and provide reference checks on management teams. In other cases, they take on more extensive roles and serve as executives or directors on the boards of issuers or contribute to the origination of new investment opportunities. In certain instances Blackstone has formal arrangements with these strategic advisors, senior advisors, consultants, operating partners and/or other professionals (which may or may not be terminable upon notice by any party), and in other cases the relationships are more informal. They may be either compensated (including pursuant to retainers and expense reimbursement) from Blackstone, the Master Fund and/or issuers or otherwise uncompensated unless and until an engagement with an issuer develops. In certain cases, they have certain attributes of Blackstone “employees” (e.g., they may have dedicated offices at Blackstone, have a Blackstone email address, participate in general meetings and events for Blackstone personnel, work on Blackstone matters as their primary or sole business activity) even though they are not considered Blackstone employees, affiliates or personnel for purposes of the investment management agreement between the Investment Manager and each of the Feeder Funds and the Master Fund and related Management Fee offset provisions. There can be no assurance that any of the strategic advisors, senior advisors, consultants, operating partners and/or other professionals will continue to serve in such roles and/or continue their arrangements with Blackstone, the Master Fund and/or any issuers.

Relationships with Borrowers and/or Issuers. Borrowers, lenders, sellers, issuers and/or other similar parties (“Counterparties”) are or will be counterparties or participants in agreements, transactions or other arrangements with portfolio entities of other investment funds managed by Blackstone or other Blackstone affiliates for the arranging, underwriting, syndication or refinancing of an investment or other services provided by such portfolio entities or other Blackstone affiliates (including without limitation, loan modification or restructuring services, loan servicing, administrative services, loan/asset management fees, fees for monitoring and oversight of loans, advisory services, property/asset management services, and title insurance services) that, although Blackstone determines to be consistent with the requirements of such funds’ governing agreements, would not have otherwise been entered into but for the affiliation with Blackstone, and which involve fees, commissions, servicing payments (including for management

consulting and other similar operational and finance matters) and/or discounts to the Investment Manager and/or any Blackstone-affiliated entities or persons (including personnel) or a portfolio company/entity, which will not reduce the Management Fee. In connection with such relationships, Blackstone may also make referrals and/or introductions to certain Counterparties (which may result in financial incentives (including additional equity ownership) and/or milestones benefitting Blackstone that are tied or related to participation by such Counterparties). The Master Fund will not share in any fees or economics accruing to Blackstone as a result of these relationships and/or participation by such Counterparties.

In addition, it is possible that certain portfolio entities of the Other Blackstone Vehicles or companies in which the Other Blackstone Vehicles have an interest will compete with the Master Fund for one or more investment opportunities and/or engage in activities that may have adverse consequences on the Master Fund and/or its portfolio entities (including, by way of example only, as a result of laws and regulations of certain jurisdictions (e.g., bankruptcy, environmental, consumer protection and/or labor laws) that may not recognize the segregation of assets and liabilities as between separate entities and may permit recourse against the assets of not just the entity that has incurred the liabilities, but also the other entities that are under common control with, or part of the same economic group as, such entity, which may result in the assets of the Master Fund and/or its portfolio entities being used to satisfy the obligations or liabilities of one or more Other Blackstone Vehicles, their portfolio entities and/or affiliates). In addition, there will be circumstances where investments that are consistent with the Master Fund’s investment objectives will be required or permitted to be made by (to the potential exclusion of the Master Fund) or shared with one or more Other Blackstone Vehicles, including but not limited to funds and vehicles described above and/or that have investment objectives similar to and/or overlapping with the Master Fund’s. It is also possible that certain of the mortgage loans that comprise a CMBS that is owned by the Master Fund will be issued by portfolio entities of the Other Blackstone Vehicles or companies in which the Other Blackstone Vehicles have an interest, including BREP and BPP.

With respect to transactions or agreements with issuers, if unrelated officers of a issuers have not yet been appointed, Blackstone may be negotiating and executing agreements between Blackstone and/or the Master Fund on the one hand, and the issuers in which they invest or their affiliates, on the other hand, which could entail a conflict of interest in relation to efforts to enter into terms that are arm’s length. Among the measures Blackstone may use to mitigate such conflicts is involving outside counsel to review and advise on such agreements and provide insights into commercially reasonable terms.

Activities of Principals and Employees. Certain of the principals and employees of the Investment Manager may be subject to a variety of conflicts of interest relating to their responsibilities to the Master Fund and the management of the Master Fund’s investment portfolio. Such individuals may serve in an advisory capacity to other managed accounts or investment vehicles, as members of an investment or advisory committee or a board of directors (or similar such capacity) for one or more investment funds, corporations, foundations or other organizations. Such positions may create a conflict between the services and advice provided to such entities and the responsibilities owed to the Master Fund. The other managed accounts and/or investment funds in which such individuals may become involved may have investment objectives that overlap with the Master Fund. Furthermore, certain principals and employees of the Investment Manager may have a greater financial interest in the performance of such other funds or accounts than the performance of the Master Fund. Such involvement may create conflicts of interest in making investments on behalf of the Master Fund and such other funds and accounts. Such principals and employees will seek to limit any such conflicts in a manner that is in accordance with their fiduciary duties to the Master Fund and such organizations.

Service Providers and Counterparties. Certain advisors and other service providers or their affiliates (including accountants, administrators, lenders, bankers, brokers, attorneys, consultants, title agents, property managers and investment or commercial banking firms), that provide goods or services to the Master Fund, Blackstone and/or certain entities in which the Master Fund has an investment may also provide goods or services to or have business, personal, financial or other relationships with Blackstone and its other businesses. For example, certain portfolio entities enter into agreements regarding group procurement (such as a group purchasing organization), benefits management, purchase of title and/or other insurance policies (which will from time to time be pooled across portfolio entities and discounted due to scale) from a third party or a Blackstone affiliate, and other similar operational, administrative or management related initiatives that result in commissions, discounts or similar payments to Blackstone or its affiliates (including personnel), including related to a portion of the savings achieved by the portfolio entity. Such benefits will not result in an offset to the Management Fee. Such advisors and service providers referred to above may be investors in the Master Fund, affiliates of the Investment Manager, sources of financing and investment opportunities or co-investors or commercial counterparties or entities in which Blackstone and/or Other Blackstone Vehicles have an investment, and payments by the Master Fund may indirectly benefit Blackstone and/or such Other Blackstone Vehicles. In addition, certain employees of Blackstone may have family members or relatives employed by such advisors and service providers. The

Investment Manager and/or its affiliates may also provide administrative services to the Master Fund for a fee. These relationships may influence Blackstone and/or the Investment Manager in deciding whether to select, recommend or create such an advisor or service provider to perform services for the Master Fund or a portfolio entity (the cost of which will generally be borne directly or indirectly by the Master Fund or such portfolio entity, as applicable) and may incentivize Blackstone to engage such a service provider over a third party and/or utilize the services of brokers or other service providers or to pay such brokers or other service providers higher fees or commissions, out of the Master Fund’s assets, in return for such brokers or service providers’ willingness to invest in the Master Fund, which could result in additional fees for the Investment Manager. Any fees from these providers described below do not offset Management Fees payable by the shareholders. Similarly, from time to time, Blackstone personnel may speak at conferences and programs which are sponsored by the Master Fund’s prime brokers, as applicable, for potential investors interested in investing in funds. Through such capital introduction events, prospective investors in the Master Fund have the opportunity to meet with the Investment Manager. Neither the Investment Manager nor the Master Fund will compensate the prime brokers for organizing such events or for investments ultimately made by prospective investors attending such events. However, such events and other services (including, without limitation, capital introduction services) provided by a prime broker may influence the Investment Manager in deciding whether to use such prime broker in connection with brokerage, financing and other activities of the Master Fund.

Additionally, certain employees and other professionals of Blackstone have family members or relatives that are actively involved in the real estate industry and/or have business, personal, financial or other relationships with companies in the real estate industry (including the advisors and service providers described above), which gives rise to potential or actual conflicts of interest. For example, such family members or relatives might be employees, officers, directors or owners of companies or assets which are actual or potential investments of the Master Fund or other counterparties of the Master Fund and its portfolio entities and/or assets. Moreover, in certain instances, the Master Fund or its portfolio entities may purchase or sell companies or assets from or to, or otherwise transact with, companies that are owned by such family members or relatives or in respect of which such family members or relatives have other involvement. In most such circumstances, the Master Fund’s organizational documents will not preclude the Master Fund from undertaking any particular investment activity and/or transaction. To the extent Blackstone determines appropriate, conflict mitigation strategies may be put in place with respect to a particular circumstance, such as internal information barriers or recusal, disclosure or other steps determined appropriate by the Investment Manager.

Because Blackstone has many different businesses, including the Blackstone Capital Markets Group, which, to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, Blackstone investment teams and portfolio entities may engage to provide underwriting and capital market advisory services, it is subject to a number of actual and potential conflicts of interest, greater regulatory oversight and subject to more legal and contractual restrictions than that to which it would otherwise be subject if it had just one line of business.

Such Blackstone-affiliated service providers, which are generally expected to receive competitive market rate fees (as determined by the Investment Manager) with respect to certain investments, include, without limitation:

LNLS. Blackstone partnered with a leading national title agency to create Lexington National Land Services (“LNLS”), a title agent company. LNLS acts as an agent for one or more underwriters in issuing title policies and/or providing support services in connection with U.S. investments by the Master Fund, Other Blackstone Vehicles and third parties. LNLS focuses on transactions in rate-regulated states where the cost of title insurance is non-negotiable. LNLS will not perform services in nonregulated states for the Master Fund or Other Blackstone Vehicles unless (i) in the context of a portfolio transaction that includes assets in rate regulated states, (ii) as part of a syndicate of title insurance companies where the rate is negotiated by other insurers or their agents, (iii) when a third party is paying all or a material portion of the premium or (iv) when providing only support services to the underwriter and not negotiating the title policy or issuing it to the insured. LNLS earns fees, which would have otherwise been paid to third parties, by providing title agency services and facilitating the placement of title insurance with underwriters. Blackstone receives distributions from LNLS in connection with investments by the Master Fund based on its equity interest in LNLS. In each case, there will be no related offset to the Master Fund. As a result, while Blackstone believes the venture will provide services at or better than those provided by third parties (even in jurisdictions where insurance rates are regulated), there is an inherent conflict of interest that would incentivize Blackstone to engage LNLS over a third party. We will not incur any expenses or receive any revenues when our borrowers engage LNLS.

COE. The Blackstone Center of Excellence, located in Gurgaon, India (the “COE”), is a captive center of resources administered by ThoughtFocus Technologies LLC (“ThoughtFocus”), which is an independent firm in which Blackstone holds a minority position and participates as a member of the board. The COE may perform

services for the Master Fund that may have historically been performed by Blackstone personnel, such as fund administrative services, data collection and management services, and technology implementation and support services, some of which will be paid for by the Master Fund on a similar basis as a third party providing such services. Blackstone, through its interest in ThoughtFocus, receives an indirect benefit resulting from the Master Fund’s payments for such services, and there will be no related offset to the Management Fee.

CTIMCO. In December 2012, Blackstone acquired CTIMCO, which is currently operated as part of BREDS. CTIMCO operates a loan servicing and special servicing business and provide such services from time to time, to certain BREDS Vehicles and Other Blackstone Vehicles, for which it would receive fees with respect to such investment vehicles’ investments. These fees do not offset management fees payable by such investment vehicles’ investors.

Transactions relating to the Master Fund that require the use of a service provider will generally be allocated to service providers on the basis of best execution, the evaluation of which includes, among other considerations, such service provider’s provision of certain investment-related services and research that the Investment Manager believes to be of benefit to the Master Fund. Advisors and other service providers or their affiliates often charge different rates or have different arrangements for different types of services. With respect to service providers, for example, the fee for a given type of work may vary depending on the complexity of the matter as well as the expertise required and demands placed on the service provider. Therefore, to the extent the types of services used by the Master Fund and/or portfolio entities are different from those used by Blackstone and its affiliates (including personnel), the Investment Manager or its affiliates (including personnel) may pay different amounts or rates than those paid by the Master Fund and/or portfolio entities. Similarly, Blackstone, its affiliates, the Master Fund, the Other Blackstone Vehicles and/or their portfolio companies may enter into agreements or other arrangements with vendors and other similar counterparties (whether such counterparties are affiliated or unaffiliated with Blackstone) from time to time whereby such counterparty may charge lower rates and/or provide discounts or rebates for such counterparty’s products and/or services depending on certain factors, including without limitation, volume of transactions entered into with such counterparty by Blackstone, its affiliates, the Master Fund, the Other Blackstone Vehicles and their portfolio companies in the aggregate. However, the Investment Manager and its affiliates have a longstanding practice of not entering into any arrangements with advisors or service providers that could provide for lower rates or discounts than those available to the Master Fund, Other Blackstone Vehicles and/or portfolio entities for the same services.

Blackstone will from time to time hold equity or other investments in companies or businesses (even if they are not “affiliates” of Blackstone) that provide services to or otherwise contract with the Master Fund. Blackstone has in the past entered (and can be expected in the future to enter) into relationships with companies in the information technology and other industries whereby Blackstone acquires an equity or similar interest in such company. In connection with such relationships, Blackstone may also make referrals and/or introductions to the Master Fund (which may result in financial incentives (including additional equity ownership) and/or milestones benefitting Blackstone that are tied or related to participation by us and Other Blackstone Vehicles). The Master Fund will not share in any fees or economics accruing to Blackstone as a result of these relationships and/or our participation in these relationships.

Blackstone receives various kinds of portfolio company/entity data and information (including from portfolio companies and/or entities of the Master Fund), such as data and information relating to business operations, trends, budgets, customers and other metrics (this data is sometimes referred to as “big data”). As a result, Blackstone may be better able to anticipate macroeconomic and other trends, and otherwise develop investment themes, as a result of information learned from a portfolio company. In furtherance of the foregoing, Blackstone may enter into information sharing and use arrangements with portfolio companies and/or entities. Blackstone believes that access to this information furthers the interests of the shareholders by providing opportunities for operational improvements across portfolio companies and/or entities and in connection with the Master Fund’s investment management activities. Subject to appropriate contractual arrangements, Blackstone may also utilize such information outside of the Master Fund’s activities in a manner that provides a material benefit to Blackstone and/or its affiliates, but not the Master Fund. The sharing and use of such information presents potential conflicts of interest. Any corresponding/resulting benefits received by Blackstone and/or its affiliates will not be subject to Management Fee offset provisions or otherwise shared with investors. As a result, the Investment Manager may have an incentive to pursue investments in companies and/or entities based on their data and information and/or to utilize such information in a manner that benefits Blackstone and/or its affiliates.

Valuation Matters. The fair value of all investments or of property received in exchange for any investments will be determined in accordance the Master Fund’s valuation policies. It may be the case that the carrying value of an investment may not reflect the price at which the investment is ultimately sold in the market, and the difference between carrying value and the ultimate sales price could be material. The valuation methodologies used to value any investment

may also involve assumptions and opinions about future events, which may or may not turn out to be correct. Ultimate realization of the value of an asset depends to a great extent on economic, market and other conditions beyond Blackstone’s control. There will be no retroactive adjustment in the valuation of any investment, the offering price at which shares were purchased by shareholders or repurchased by the Master Fund or the fees and/or performance-based compensation paid to the Investment Manager to the extent any valuation was properly made in accordance with the Master Fund’s valuation procedures but proves to not accurately reflect the realizable value of an asset in the Master Fund. The valuation of investments will affect the amount and timing of the Master Fund’s Incentive Fee and the amount of Management Fees payable to the Investment Manager. As a result, there may be circumstances where the Master Fund is incentivized to determine valuations that are higher than the actual fair value of investments. For further details on the Master Fund’s valuation policies, please see “Determination of Net Asset Value and Managed Assets” in each Feeder Fund’s prospectus.

Trading by Blackstone Personnel. The officers, directors, members, managers and employees of the Investment Manager may trade in securities for their own accounts, subject to restrictions and reporting requirements as may be required by law and Blackstone policies, or otherwise determined from time to time by the Investment Manager.

Other Trading and Investing Activities. Certain Other Blackstone Vehicles may invest in securities of companies which are actual or potential companies in which the Master Fund has made or will make investments. The trading activities of those vehicles may differ from or be inconsistent with activities which are undertaken for the account of the Master Fund in such securities or related securities. In addition, the Master Fund may be precluded from pursuing an investment in an issuer as a result of such trading activities by Other Blackstone Vehicles.

Diverse Shareholder Group. The shareholders may have conflicting investment, tax and other interests with respect to their investments in the Feeder Funds and with respect to the interests of investors in other investment vehicles managed or advised by the Investment Manager that may participate in the same investments as the Master Fund. The conflicting interests of individual shareholders with respect to other shareholders and relative to investors in other investment vehicles may relate to or arise from, among other things, the nature of investments made by the Master Fund and such other partnerships, the structuring or the acquisition of investments and the timing of disposition of investments and such other partnerships. As a consequence, conflicts of interest may arise in connection with decisions made by the Investment Manager, including with respect to the nature or structuring of investments, which may be more beneficial for one shareholder than for another shareholder, especially with respect to shareholders’ individual tax situations. In addition, the Master Fund may make investments that may have a negative impact on related investments made by the shareholders in separate transactions. In selecting and structuring investments appropriate for the Master Fund and the Feeder Funds, the Investment Manager considers the investment and tax objectives of the Master Fund and its shareholders (and those of investors in other investment vehicles managed or advised by the Investment Manager) as a whole, not the investment, tax or other objectives of any shareholders individually.

Additional Potential Conflicts. In addition, as a consequence of Blackstone’s status as a public company, the officers, directors, members, managers and employees of the Investment Manager may take into account certain considerations and other factors in connection with the management of the business and affairs of the Master Fund and its affiliates that would not necessarily be taken into account if Blackstone were not a public company.

(a)(3) Compensation of Portfolio Managers - as of December 31, 2017:

The Portfolio Managers’ compensation is comprised primarily of a fixed salary and a discretionary bonus paid by the Investment Manager or its affiliates and not by the Feeder Funds or the Master Fund. A portion of the discretionary bonus may be paid in shares of stock or stock options of Blackstone, the parent company of the Investment Manager, which stock options may be subject to certain vesting periods. The amount of the Portfolio Managers’ discretionary bonus, and the portion to be paid in shares or stock options of Blackstone, is determined by senior officers of the Investment Manager and/or Blackstone. In general, the amount of the bonus will be based on a combination of factors, none of which is necessarily weighted more than any other factor. These factors may include: the overall performance of the Investment Manager; the overall performance of Blackstone and its affiliates and subsidiaries; the profitability to the Investment Manager derived from the management of the Feeder Funds, the Master Fund and the other accounts managed by the Investment Manager; the absolute performance of the Feeder Funds, the Master Fund and such other accounts for the preceding year; contributions by the Portfolio Managers in assisting with managing the assets of the Investment Manager; and execution of managerial responsibilities, client interactions and support of colleagues. The bonus is not based on a precise formula, benchmark or other metric.
