Pursuant to the terms of each Purchase and Sale Agreement, Dyal Fund Investors relinquished their respective rights to receive management fee shares with respect to Dyal Capital Partners III (A) LP, Dyal Capital Partners III (B) LP, Dyal Capital Partners IV (A) LP, Dyal Capital Partners IV (B) LP, Dyal Capital Partners IV (C) LP, Dyal Capital Partners V (A) LP, Dyal Capital Partners V (B) LP and/or Dyal Finance Investors (US) LP, as well as feeder funds, alternative vehicles, parallel funds and future investment funds, accounts, vehicles and/or other similar arrangements investing alongside therewith, or formed in succession thereof. Applicable Dyal Fund Investors also waived the respective competing fund covenants in respect of each of Dyal Capital Partners V (A) LP, Dyal Capital Partners V (B) LP and/or Dyal Finance Investors (US) LP, as applicable, and agreed to subscribe for incremental commitments to Dyal Capital Partners V (A) LP and/or Dyal Capital Partners V (B) LP. In exchange for the foregoing, (a) the Company issued its Class A common stock in the amount of (i) 18,799,854 shares to Koch Pension, (ii) 7,167,817 shares to KFA and (iii) 3,733,342 shares to Illiquid Markets, and (b) Capital Holdings paid a cash purchase price in the amount of (i) $36.2 million to Koch Pension, (ii) $13.8 million to KFA and (iii) $7.5 million to Illiquid Markets.
