General Partner fee
The General Partner, U.S. Select Private Opportunities Fund IV GP, LLC (GP), is responsible for managing the business of the limited partnership, U.S. Select Private Opportunities Fund IV, LP (LP), on behalf of all limited partners. As sole GP of the LP, the GP is entitled to receive a management fee equal to 1% per annum of the total capital committed, including capital committed by the Fund and Cordish Private Ventures as limited partners to the LP. For the first 12 months from the original offer, the GP has agreed to charge 1% of the capital called by the LP.
This fee is to be paid quarterly out of the funds of the LP and is only payable for a 10-year period from the Fund’s inception.
Underlying fund manager fees and expenses
The GP is entitled to be reimbursed, out of the assets of the LP, for all out-of-pocket expenses it properly incurs in operating and administering the Fund. This includes the fees charged by underlying fund managers associated with the performance of their management functions. The LP may also be required to pay performance fees to the underlying fund managers.
The underlying fund managers in which the Fund, through the LP, invests are entitled to be reimbursed, out of the assets of the LP, for all out-of-pocket expenses they properly incur in connection with the investment and management of the underlying funds.

Investors should note that the hurdle rate references to the LP, not the Fund level, and is denominated in US dollars.
