IMPORTANT INFORMATION CONTINUED
The information contained herein (the "Presentation") is for informational
and discussion purposes only and is not, and may not be relied on in any
manner as, legal, tax or
investment advice, any recommendation or opinion regarding the
appropriateness or suitability of any investment or strategy, or as an offer
to sell or a solicitation of an offer
to buy an interest in Glendower Capital Secondary Opportunities Fund IV, LP
EFTA01443404
(the "Underlying Fund") or Glendower Access Secondary Opportunities IV
(U.S.), L.P. (the "Access
Fund"). A private offering of interests in the Access Fund will be made only
pursuant to the Access Fund's Private Placement Memorandum (the "Offering
Memorandum"), which
will be furnished only to qualified prospective investors on a confidential
basis. The Presentation is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
Offering Memorandum, which
contains more detailed information about the Access Fund's investment
objective, terms and conditions and also contains tax information and risk
disclosures that are important
to any investment decision regarding the Access Fund. No person has been
authorized to make any statement concerning the Access Fund other than as
set forth in the Offering
Memorandum and any such statements, if made, may not be relied upon. The
information contained herein must be kept strictly confidential and may not
be reproduced or
redistributed in any format without the approval of the General Partner of
the Access Fund and the General Partner of the Underlying Fund.
This Presentation, other than the description of the Access Fund Terms, was
not created for the Access Fund and does not describe an investment in the
Access Fund. There
are important differences between the Access Fund and the Underlying Fund
described in the Presentation. An investment in the Access Fund is not
suitable for all investors.
Prospective investors should be aware that investing in the Access Fund
involves a high degree of risk. There can be no assurance that the Access
Fund or the Underlying Fund
will achieve their investment objectives or that investors will receive a
return on their capital. The possibility of partial or total loss of capital
will exist and prospective investors
must be prepared to bear capital losses that may result from investments.
There will be restrictions on transferring interests in the Access Fund,
investments may be leveraged
and the investment performance may be volatile. Before deciding to invest in
the Access Fund, prospective investors should read the Offering Memorandum
and pay particular
attention to the Risk Factors contained therein. The fees and expenses
charged in an investment in the Access Fund may be higher than the fees and
expenses of other investment
alternatives and may offset profits. Both the Access Fund and the Underlying
Fund impose administrative or management fees, custodial accounting and
other service fees,
performance allocations and other expenses that will reduce returns.
Investors should have the financial ability and willingness to accept the
risk characteristics of the Access
Fund's investments. Potential conflicts of interest may arise between the
General Partner and the Limited Partners, such conflicts of interest are
described more fully in the
Offering Memorandum.
In considering any performance data contained in the Presentation, you
EFTA01443405
should bear in mind that past or targeted performance is not indicative of
future results, and there can
be no assurance that the Access Fund or the Underlying Fund will achieve
comparable results. Prospective investors should also bear in mind that past
or targeted portfolio
characteristics are not indicative of future portfolio characteristics and
there can be no assurance that any fund will have comparable portfolio
characteristics or that target
portfolio characteristics will be achieved. The value of investments can go
down as well as up.
In addition, there can be no assurance that unrealized investments will be
realized
at the valuations shown as actual realized returns will depend on, among
other factors, future operating results, the value of the assets and market
conditions at the time of
disposition, any related transaction costs, and the timing and manner of
sale, all of which may be different from the assumptions on which the
valuations contained herein are
based. IRRs presented on a "gross" basis do not reflect any management fees,
carried interest, taxes and allocable expenses borne by investors, which in
the aggregate may be
substantial. Therefore, actual performance of the Underlying Fund after
deduction of such fees and expenses would be lower than the gross
performance reflected in this
EFTA01443406

GLENDOWER ACCESS SECONDARY OPPORTUNITIES IV (U.S.), L.P. 3
IMPORTANT INFORMATION CONTINUED
Presentation. Further, investors in the Access Fund will experience lower
returns than investors committing directly to the Underlying Fund as a
result of the additional fees and
expenses associated with an investment in the Access Fund. Nothing contained
herein should be deemed to be prediction or projection of future performance
of the Underlying
Fund or the Access Fund.
NOTE: Historical returns presented herein do not include any fees and
expenses that would be associated with an investment in the Access Fund,
which would have the effect
of lowering the net returns experienced by an investor.
Benchmarks and financial indices are shown for illustrative purposes only
and are provided for the purpose of making general market data available as
a point of reference only.
Such benchmarks and financial indices may not be available for direct
investment, may be unmanaged, assume reinvestment of income, do not reflect
the impact of any trading
commissions and costs, management or performance fees, and have limitations
when used for comparison or other purposes because they, among other
reasons, may have
different trading strategy, volatility, credit or other material
characteristics. No representation is made that any benchmark or index is an
appropriate measure for comparison.
Alternative investments often are speculative and include a high degree of
risk. Investors could lose all or a substantial amount of their investment.
Alternative investments are
suitable only for eligible, long-term investors who are willing to forgo
liquidity and put capital at risk for an indefinite period of time. They may
be highly illiquid and can engage in
leverage and other speculative practices that may increase the volatility
and risk of loss. Alternative Investments typically have higher fees than
traditional investments. Investors
should carefully review and consider potential risks before investing.
Certain of these risks may include but are not limited to:
• Loss of all or a substantial portion of the investment due to leveraging,
short-selling, or other speculative practices;
• Lack of liquidity in that there may be no secondary market for a fund;
• Volatility of returns;
• Restrictions on transferring interests in a fund;
• Potential lack of diversification and resulting higher risk due to
concentration of trading authority when a single advisor is utilized;
Absence of information regarding
valuations and pricing;
• Complex tax structures and delays in tax reporting;
• Less regulation and higher fees than mutual funds; and
• Risks associated with the operations, personnel, and processes of the
manager
Purchasers of Interests will be limited partners in the Access Fund and will
EFTA01443407
not be limited partners of the Underlying Fund, will have no direct interest
in the Underlying Fund, will
have no voting rights in the Underlying Fund and will have no standing or
recourse against the Underlying Fund or the General Partner or Manager of
the Underlying Fund or their
respective officers, directors, members, partners, shareholders or
employees, agents or affiliates (or any officer, director, member, partner,
shareholder, employee or agent of any
such affiliate). The offering of interests is not, and should not be
considered, an offering of limited partner interests in the Underlying Fund.
Moreover, none of the Access Fund,
the General Partner of the Access Fund or any of their respective affiliates
has the right to participate in the control, management or operations of the
Underlying Fund or has
any discretion over the management of the Underlying Fund. Both the Access
Fund and the Underlying Fund impose administrative or management fees,
custodial accounting
and other service fees, performance allocations and other expenses that will
reduce returns. Returns to limited partners in the Access Fund will be lower
than those from a direct
investment in the Underlying Fund. iCapital Advisors, LLC, a subsidiary of

Distinctive investment strategyl2
Glendower will target globally, but primarily in the US and Europe, three
types of investment:
• Fund Secondaries, the purchase of LP interests in existing private equity
funds;
• GP-led Secondaries, which can often involve greater complexity than
traditional Fund Secondaries, and include spin-in / spin-outs, tail-end
restructuring,
asset liquidations, and LP tenders; and
• Single Asset Deals into individual private equity companies, either at the
time of the original acquisition, or later from an investor seeking early
liquidity.
Glendower's portfolio construction follows an opportunistic barbell approach
adjusted to market cycles by dialing up:
• Discounted Fund Secondaries during market corrections (58% of transactions
since inception)
• Less competitive GP-led Secondaries and off-market Co-investments during
normalized market conditions (42% of transactions since inception)10
1
Identify less competitive deals
■ US$40m average deal size
■ Smaller US$5-100m fund portfolios
■ Mid-size US$100-250m GP-led deals
2
Pursue a selective, true value
approach
■ Transacted 1% of total pipeline by value
■ Mid-sized alpha value investor vs large levered
beta play
■ Value creation through in-depth fundamental
analysis vs deal structuring
4
Focus on efficient portfolio
construction
3
■ No leverage at transaction level and limited at
portfolio level
■ Hedging to mitigate 50-60% of currency
volatility
■ Portfolio diversified across ca. 35 deals to seek
to mitigate 90%+ of non-market riskl3
Established Investment Team Active in the Secondary Market Since 200314
• 23-strong team expected to grow to 26-28 by 1H18

Endnotes
(1) Glendower Capital Secondary Opportunities Fund IV, L.P. ("SOF IV" or the
"Fund") is being formed by Glendower Capital LLP ("Glendower"), an appointed
representative of Mirabella Advisers LLP, which is authorised and regulated
by the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority.
(2) Mature funds include SOF, SOF D and SOF II; overall SOF Program includes
SOF, SOF D, SOF II and SOF III. Performance figures have been calculated
based
on the unaudited performance results of SOF, SOF D, SOF II and SOF III as of
September 30, 2017 and should be read and reviewed in conjunction with
the "Important Information" and "Notes to Investment Performance
Information" sections of this document. Gross returns are gross of fees,
expenses
and carried interest. Net performance reflects amounts net of expenses, fees
and carried interest. Past performance is not a prediction of the future
performance of SOF, SOF D, SOF II or SOF III but is included to demonstrate
the track record of the Glendower Team and there can be no assurance that
SOF IV will achieve comparable results.
(3) SOF D is a Euro denominated fund. Converted at the September 30, 2017
EUR/US$ rate of 1.1822.
(4) Both SOF and SOF D are invested in the DaVinci Portfolio — a well
diversified portfolio of 28 private equity funds purchased through an SPV,
providing
exposure to buyout, special situations, venture capital and real estate
strategies in North America, Europe and Asia. The number of funds and
companies
is a best estimate and shows the aggregate of each deal at closing and may
include some double counting.
(5) Source: Cambridge Associates Secondaries Benchmark statistics as of
September 30, 2017 based on data compiled from 140 secondary funds with a
minimum of 8 funds per year, including fully liquidated partnerships, formed
between 2004 and 2014. Each SOF Fund is shown benchmarked against their
respective vintage peer group. This information reflects a comparison of
SOF, SOF D, SOF II and SOF III performance against one benchmark only;
quartiles
may differ when compared to other benchmarking sources. SOF, SOF D, SOF II
and SOF III data is not included in the data set used to calculate the
benchmark data.
(6) Information presented in this chart is based on the unaudited results of
SOF, SOF D, SOF II and SOF III as of September 30, 2017 and should be read
and
reviewed in conjunction with the "Important Information" and "Notes to
Investment Performance Information" sections of this document.
(7) Past performance is not a prediction of the future performance of SOF,
SOF D, SOF II or SOF III but is included to demonstrate the track record of
the
Glendower team.
(8) Internal rates of returns are net of fees, expenses and carried
interest. Cambridge Associates research shows that most funds take at least
EFTA01443415
six years to
settle into their final quartile ranking, and previous to this settling they
typically rank in 2-3 other quartiles; therefore fund or benchmark
performance
metrics from more recent vintage years may be less meaningful. Median is the
middle fund IRR of the group of individual fund IRRs included in a vintage
year (minimum 5 funds). Upper/ lower quartile are the thresholds for the
upper (top 25%) and lower (bottom 25%) quartiles based on the individual fund
IRRs included in a vintage year and are used in conjunction with the median
to determine quartile placement (minimum8 funds).
(9) DPI = Distributions to Paid-In Capital; RVPI = Residual Value to Paid-In
Capital; TVPI= Total Value to Paid-in Capital. TVPI, RVPI and DPI are pooled
return
aggregating all cash flows and ending NAVs in a sample to calculate a dollar-
weighted return.
(10) Please read the confidential private placement memorandum of the Fund
(the "Memorandum") for the full disclosure of risk factors, conflicts of
interest,
complete terms, and regulatory and tax considerations of the Fund. For
further disclosure of fees, such as fees and expenses paid by the Fund,
please
refer to the Memorandum, the amended and restated limited partnership
agreement and the deed of adherence of the Fund. All such documents are in
the process of being prepared and will be made available to prospective
investors upon request.
(11) Invested Capital is the amount of capital invested in investments and
the remaining unfunded obligations reasonably reserved by Glendower for such
investments.
(12) As of September 30, 2017. There can be no assurance that the strategy
will be successful in the future, or that losses will be avoided.
(13) Source: Glendower's assessment based on portfoliomanagement theory.
(14) As of September 30, 2017. Period since 2003 includes time spent by
members of the core senior management team at Deutsche Bank.
Key Definitions
"Single Asset Deal" means an investment by the Fund (directly or indirectly)
in a portfolio company alongside one or more private equity fund sponsors
(and
any follow-on investments in any such investment, but not including any GP-
led Secondary) as reasonably determined by the Manager as the context
requires.
"Fund Secondary" means (a) an interest held directly or indirectly by the
Fund in a generalist or specialist private equity fund structure (including
a fund of
funds, feeder fund or other similar structure) acquired in a standalone
transaction or (b) a portfolio of such interests acquired in a single
transaction, in each
case as reasonably determined by the Manager as the context requires,
provided that any interest referred to in clause (a) shall be in a fund
structure that
either has an investment period that is expired (other than for follow-on
investments) or has drawn down or committed to invest at least 50% of its
EFTA01443416
aggregate
commitments, and provided that any portfolio of interests referred to in
clause (b) shall be in fund structures that in the aggregate have drawn down
or
committed to invest at least 50% of their aggregate commitments, provided
further that the aggregate commitments of any fund structure that has an
investment period that is expired (other than for follow-on investments)
shall be deemed to equal the amount drawn down in such fund structure and
provided, further, that a Fund Secondary shall not also be determined to be
an Early Stage Investment.
"GP-led Secondary" means an investment interest held by the Fund (directly
or indirectly) in private equity fund structure or a portfolio of direct
private equity
assets through bespoke liquidity solutions (and any follow-on investments in
any such investment interest, but not including any Co-Investment) as

information contained herein and any future offering of SOF IV. Neither

This Presentation is not intended for distribution, and shall not be
distributed, in any jurisdiction where such distribution would violate
applicable securities
laws
This Presentation may refer to certain events as having occurred and
documents as having been entered into which may not have occurred or been
entered
into at the date that this Presentation is made available but that Glendower
EFTA01443418
expects will occur or be entered into thereafter.
This Presentation is not an offer to sell, nor a solicitation of an offer to
buy, any security, and may not be used or relied upon in connection with any
offer or
solicitation. A private offering of interests in the Fund will be made only
pursuant to the offering documents for the Fund, which contain additional
information
about the investment objective, terms and conditions of an investment in the
Fund and also contain tax information and risk disclosures that are
important to
any investment decision regarding the Fund. No person has been authorized to
make any statement concerning the Fund other than as set forth in the
offering
documents and any such statements, if made, may not be relied upon. The
offering documents will be furnished to qualified investors on a
confidential basis at
their request. The information contained in this Presentation will be
superseded by, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, such
offering documents.
An investment in the Fund will involve significant risks, including loss of
the entire investment. The interests in the Fund will be illiquid, as there
is no secondary
market for interests in the Fund and none is expected to develop. There will
be restrictions on transferring interests in the Fund, investments may be
leveraged
and the investment performance may be volatile. Before deciding to invest in
the Fund, prospective investors should read the offering memorandum and pay
particular attention to the risk factors contained in the offering
documents. The fees and expenses charged in connection with an investment in
the Fund may
be higher than the fees and expenses of other investment alternatives and
may offset profits. Investors should have the financial ability and
willingness to
accept the risk characteristics of the Fund's investments.
Potential conflicts of interest may arise from the relationship between
Credit Suisse Asset Management Limited and its affiliates ("Credit Suisse"),
which is
acting as the Fund's placement agent. Credit Suisse is not acting and will
not act as a municipal advisor within the meaning of Section 975 of the Dodd -
Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder ("Municipal Advisor Rule").
Any services, material, or information that Credit Suisse provides to a
municipal entity or obligated person as defined by the Municipal Advisor
Rule ("Covered
Party") are provided on an arm's length basis and not as an advisor or
fiduciary to the Covered Party. Covered Parties should consult with their
own internal and
external advisors before taking action with respect to any services,
material, or information provided to them by Credit Suisse. Credit Suisse
also will not solicit
EFTA01443419
a Covered Party for direct or indirect compensation on behalf of an
unaffiliated investment adviser for the purpose of obtaining or retaining an
engagement for
that investment adviser by the Covered Party to provide investment advisory
services to or on behalf of the Covered Party.

returns
generated by the Fund will equal or exceed those presented herein or that
the Fund will be able to implement its investment strategies or achieve its

current
assumptions, may be simplified and may depend upon events outside the
control of Glendower or its affiliates. Other events that were not taken
into account
may occur and may significantly affect the analysis herein. Therefore,
changes to any assumptions may have a material impact on any valuations or
projections. Actual results may therefore be materially different from any
forecast, opinion or valuation herein. Prospective investors in the Fund
should not
rely on these forward-looking statements in deciding whether to invest in
such Fund. The information contained in this Presentation has been obtained
from
sources outside of Credit Suisse. While such information is believed to be
reliable for the purposes used herein, neither Credit Suisse, nor any of its
affiliates or
partners, members or employees, assume any responsibility for the accuracy
of such information.

information regarding performance and targeted returns.

Glendower or its affiliates and any investor. Recipients of this
Presentation shall not
treat this Presentation as tax, regulatory, accounting, legal, investment or
any other advice in relation to the Recipient of this information and this
information
should not and cannot be relied upon as such. The distribution of this
Presentation and participation in the Fund may be restricted by law in
certain
jurisdictions. Persons who come into possession of this Presentation are
required to inform themselves about, and to observe, any such restrictions.
No governmental authority has passed on the merits of the offering of
interests in the Fund or the adequacy of the information contained herein.
Any
representation to the contrary is unlawful.
Prospective investors should pay particular attention to the information
contained in the offering documents pertaining to certain conflicts of
interests and risk
factors. An investment in the Fund is suitable only for sophisticated
investors and requires the financial ability and willingness to accept the
high risks and lack
of liquidity associated with an investment in the Fund. Investors in the
Fund must be prepared to bear such risks for an indefinite period of time.
Statements herein are made as of January 31, 2018, unless stated otherwise.
Important Information on the Track Record
The Glendower SOF Team spun-off from Deutsche Bank and its affiliates
("Deutsche Bank") on August 1, 2017 and established Glendower Capital, LLP
EFTA01443422
and its
affiliates (together, "Glendower") as an independent private equity firm
owned by its partners focused on secondary transactions in private markets.
The
performance information and track record set out in this Presentation in
respect of the SOF Funds covers the period time from inception of the SOF
Funds to
date, including the time prior to the formation of Glendower, when the team
were employees of Deutsche Bank. In evaluating the track record, each
Recipient
should note that (i) Carlo Pirzio-Biroli and Charles Smith have been
permanent voting members of the SOF Funds investment committees since
inception; (ii)
Chi Cheung, Francesco Rigamonti and Adam Graev have attended as observers
the majority of investment committees of the SOF Funds since inception, they
were appointed in December 2011 during the SOF II investment period as
voting members on a rotational basis and have been permanent voting members
since January 2013; (iii) other employees of Deutsche Bank who were not part
of the SOF investment team and that have not joined Glendower were involved
at different times on the investment committees of the SOF Funds and the
investment decision-making process in respect of the investments made by the
SOF
Funds and (iv) in connection with the investments comprising the track
record, the Glendower investment professionals were part of a larger group
within
Deutsche Bank. The investment performance included herein is intended solely
to provide Recipients with information about the Glendower SOF Team's
investment experience. The performance information provided herein has been
prepared by Deutsche Alternative Asset Management (Global) Limited
("DAAM(G)L") and provided to Glendower and relates to the SOF Funds and the
related individual underlying transactions, in respect of which the Glendower
SOF Team were involved in their capacity as portfolio managers and/or
investment committee members while employed at Deutsche Bank. Glendower takes
responsibility for its use of this performance information and its
compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, rules and guidelines,
including, but not limited
to, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, and in particular, Rule
204-2 thereunder, and DAAM(G)L takes no responsibility for the use of such
performance information by Glendower.
Notes to Investment Performance
Investment returns. Unless otherwise stated, returns are as of September 30,
2017, are unaudited and are illustrative only. As used herein, and unless
otherwise indicated, "Gross IRR" and "Net IRR" shall mean an aggregate,
compound, annual, gross or net, as applicable, internal rate of return on
investments,
based on daily cash flows Calculations are presented based on actual cash
flows to and from limited partners. All IRRs are presented on a "gross"
basis unless
otherwise stated (i.e., they do not reflect the priority profit share,
carried interest, taxes, transaction costs in connection with the
disposition of unrealized
EFTA01443423
investments and other expenses that are borne by investors in the applicable
funds, all of which will reduce returns and, in the aggregate, are expected
to be
substantial). Net IRR is presented after deducting all priority profit
share, carried interest, taxes, transaction costs and other fees and
expenses (other than
taxes borne or to be borne by investors, including as a result of an
investor's domicile). Further, note that the calculation methodology adopted
to calculate Net
IRR in respect of the SOF Funds is impacted by the SOF Funds' use of
subscription line facilities. All performance numbers include recycled
capital unless
otherwise explicitly indicated. Distributions to Paid-in Capital ("DPI")
represents aggregate distributions to investors in the SOF Funds relative to
aggregate
capital contributions to the SOF Funds. Residual Value to Paid-in Capital
("RVPI") represents the value of the SOF Funds investors' interest held
within the SOF
Funds relative to aggregate capital contributions to the SOF Funds, net of
the SOF Funds' carried interest, management fees and other expenses. Total
Value to
Paid-in Capital ("TVPI"): TVPI =DPI + RVPI. MoM is defined as the amount of
money returned divided by the amount invested for that particular investment.
Gross multiple represents Total Value as a multiple of capital invested by
the SOF Funds. Net fund data (net TVPI, etc.) net performance data reflects
amounts
net of the SOF Funds' carried interest, management fees and other expenses.
Valuations. Valuations of unrealized investments are generally based on a
good faith and reasonable determination by the general partner of the
relevant
investment fund. Any such valuation of unrealized investment will be based
on assumptions that such general partner believes are reasonable under the
circumstances, the actual realized returns on unrealized investments will
depend on, among other factors, future operating results, the value of the
assets and
market conditions at the time of disposition, any related transaction costs
and the timing and manner of sale, all of which may differ from the
assumptions on
which the valuations used in the prior performance data contained herein are
based. Accordingly, the actual realized returns generated by these unrealized
investments may differ materially from the returns indicated herein.
