TCM is an independent private equity firm with a principal place of business in New York City, 
New York (opened in April 2009), with additional office space in Austin, Texas.  TCM’s advisory 
business is conducted through TCM’s New York City and Austin offices.  TCM’s strategy is to 
make control or significant minority equity and equity-oriented investments primarily in middle-
market companies with the objective of achieving appropriate risk-adjusted returns.  TCM seeks to 
partner with management teams, entrepreneurs, and/or family owned businesses.  TCM focuses 
primarily on investing in companies in target industry sectors in which TCM’s investment team has 
significant resources and expertise, within the buyout/growth capital private equity asset class. 
TCM manages its Clients (as defined below) on a discretionary basis.  As of December 31. 2023, 
TCM manages $7.73 billion of regulatory assets under management across seven middle-market 
private equity fund families, representing $9.67  billion of aggregate capital commitments of 
Clients.  Historically, TCM has managed seven middle-market private equity fund families with 
overall aggregate capital commitments of $10.99 billion. 
As of the date hereof, TCM Clients include the following collective investment vehicles to which 
it serves as an investment manager: (i) Trilantic Capital Partners IV L.P. (together with certain 
related parallel investment vehicles and alternative vehicles, “Fund IV Global”);  (ii) Trilantic

carried interest-free basis, or are managed with reduced management fees and/or carried interest.  
TCM previously managed Trilantic Capital Partners III L.P. and its parallel funds, which was fully 
liquidated as of December 31, 2018.   
TCM was formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 3, 2009, as a limited liability 
company, and converted to a Delaware limited partnership on January 1, 2014.  In April 2009, 
TCM, together with Trilantic Capital Partners L.P. Inc., a Guernsey limited partnership (“Trilantic 
Europe”) and certain affiliates of each of them (collectively, “Trilantic”) completed the acquisition 
of Lehman Brothers Merchant Banking (“LBMB”) from the estate of Lehman Brothers Holdings 
Inc. (“Lehman Brothers”).  The acquisition was executed in partnership with Reinet Investments 
S.C.A. (“Reinet”), an investment vehicle listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange.  At the time 
of the acquisition, Reinet Fund S.C.A. F.I.S (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reinet) and certain of 
its affiliates acquired  a minority non-operating  economic interest in TCM and  certain of its 
affiliates, and certain affiliates of Trilantic Europe in connection with the transaction; as of the date 
of this submission, subject to certain investment rights, Reinet does not own such non-operating 
economic interests in TCM or its affiliates (or Trilantic Europe), provided that Reinet retains certain 
limited partnership interests in affiliated general partners and its designees serve on the investment 
committees of certain Clients.  TCM has been registered with the SEC as an investment adviser 
since January 2010 and its owners are Charles Ayres (Chairman and member of TCM’s Executive 
Committee)  and  E. Daniel James (Chief Executive Officer and member of TCM’s Executive 
Committee).  In addition to Charles Ayres and E. Daniel James, the other investment partners and 
senior advisors of TCM provide advice and guidance on the various firm matters and industry 
sectors in which TCM Clients invest.  These Partners  and Senior Advisors  include:  Charles 
Fleischmann (Head of Business Services and member of TCM’s Executive Committee), Glenn 
Jacobson  (Senior Advisor),  Jeremy Lynch  (Co-President  and member of TCM’s Executive 
Committee), Jamie Manges  (Co-President  and member of TCM’s Executive Committee), 
Christopher R. Manning (Senior Advisor), Dan Siegman (Partner), Ted Rosenwasser (Partner) and 
Li Zhang (Partner).   
In Q1 2022, Christopher R. Manning, Chairman of Trilantic Energy Partners, stepped down as 
Managing Partner of the Firm, but continues to be a Senior  Advisor, shared employee and 
associated person of the
                                        
                                        
                                             Firm.  Mr. Manning and other members of TCM that focus on investments 
in the energy sector (including Glenn Jacobson) launched a new advisory firm, Greenbelt Capital 
Management L.P.  (“Greenbelt”),  which  relies  on certain aspects of TCM’s “back  office”  and 
“middle office” infrastructure, and which is separately registered as an investment advisor with the 
SEC.  As of January 1, 2024, an employee of Greenbelt is also a senior advisor to TCM, providing 
fund finance support to certain of TCM’s Clients.  Mr. Manning and his team continue to oversee 
all existing energy-sector investments of the Firm’s current Clients; however, as successor funds 
will not invest in upstream energy investments, Mr. Manning’s change in role has not affected, nor 
is it expected to affect, or be relevant to, the operations of successor funds.  Like Mr. Manning, the 
rest of the energy team and the shared finance professional continue to be advisors and associated 
persons of the Firm.   
TCM primarily serves as an investment manager to funds with multiple investors that invest in 
multiple assets, although certain continuation vehicles and co-investment funds and parallel funds 
have been formed for single investors and/or for a single asset. Fund IV Global was organized to 
make private equity investments primarily in North America and Europe; Fund V North America 
and Fund VI North America were organized to make control or significant minority private equity 
investments in North America primarily in the business services, consumer and energy sectors.  
Fund VII North America was organized to make control or significant minority private equity 
investments in North America, primarily in the business services and consumer sectors, although 
investments may be made in other sectors or subsectors as well.  TEP I North America and TEP II 
North America were organized to make control and significant minority private equity investments 
in energy related companies in North America.   
TCM formulates the investment objective for each Client, directs and manages the investment and 
reinvestment of each Client’s assets, and provides periodic reports to investors in each Client, in 
accordance with each Client’s governing documents.  Investment advice is provided directly to 
each Client, and not individually to the investors of the Clients.  TCM manages the assets of each 
Client in accordance with the terms of the governing documents applicable to each Client.  Investors 
in Clients (generally referred to herein as “investors” or “limited partners”) participate in the overall 
investment program for the applicable Client, but in certain circumstances are excused from a 
particular investment due to legal, regulatory or other agreed-upon circumstances pursuant to the 
governing documents; for the avoidance of doubt, such arrangements generally do not and will not 
create an adviser-client relationship between TCM and any investor. 
TCM originates and recommends investment opportunities for Clients, identifies sources of capital 
for  prospective and existing portfolio investments, structures, monitors and evaluates portfolio 
investments, recommends the manner and timing of dispositions of portfolio investments and 
provides  certain  other services (including certain administrative services necessary for the 
operation of Clients) related thereto.     
Specifically, TCM generally renders the following services in connection with the Clients’ 
investment programs: 
•  analysis and investigation of potential portfolio companies, including their business, 
operations, management, financial condition, competitive position and prospects for future 
performance; 
•  analysis and investigation of potential dispositions of portfolio investments, including 
identification of potential acquirers and evaluation of offers made by such potential 
acquirers; 
•  structuring of acquisitions and dispositions of portfolio investments; 
•  identification and arranging of sources of capital and other financing for portfolio 
investments and portfolio companies; 
•  supervision of the preparation and review of all documents required in connection with the 
acquisition, disposition or financing of each portfolio investment; and 
•  monitoring of the performance of portfolio companies and, where appropriate, providing 
advice to the management of the portfolio companies during the life of a portfolio 
investment. 
Services to other Clients can vary, and have varied, from the services noted above based on the 
investment objectives of such Client.  For example, a Client may be (and certain Clients have been 
and will be) formed for a specific portfolio investment, in which case, TCM does not provide 
additional investment opportunities to such Client, but will provide other services noted above in 
connection with the portfolio company held by such Client. 
In addition to the services of its own staff and advisors, TCM arranges for and coordinates the 
services of other professionals and consultants.  TCM can engage, and has engaged, one or more 
sub-advisors (including any affiliate) to perform investment advisory and investment management 
services to Clients.  TCM currently engages Trilantic Europe as a sub-advisor in respect of a 
remaining Europe-based investment of Fund IV Global.  All sub-advisory fees are borne by TCM 
at no additional cost to Clients.  Additionally, TCM could be engaged to perform similar sub-
advisory services.  In addition, as noted above, TCM provides certain “back office” and “middle 
office” services to Greenbelt, although it does not provide investment advisory services to 
Greenbelt.
