Colorado Public Employees' Retirement Association (Colorado PERA): Colorado PERA Private Equity Holdings, as of December 31, 2025. The IRR is the column PERA heads "Colorado PERA's Since Inception IRR"; PERA does not label it net or gross. PERA states that the limited partnership recordkeeping, including the IRR, is maintained internally by PERA for each limited partnership, that its IRR calculation method may differ from the methods used by the general partners or other limited partners, and that none of the information has been reviewed or approved by the general partners. 5 partnerships are marked "NM" (not meaningful) and have no IRR. PERA lists each partnership's vintage year, capital committed ("original primary commitments"), capital contributed and capital distributed in whole dollars, and no fair value or multiple, so total value and TVPI are blank (PERA says disclosure for this asset class is limited to this information, as required by Colorado Revised Statute § 24-51-213(3)); DPI = capital distributed / capital contributed is computed, and is blank for the 5 partnerships whose capital distributed is printed as a negative amount. 41 partnerships carry PERA's footnote "Assets transferred subsequent to 2010 merger of Denver Public Schools Retirement System" and are listed under vintage year 2010, the year of the merger; their vintage is left blank. All 425 rows of PERA's Private Equity list are included, liquidated partnerships among them, as PERA classifies them (buyout, growth, venture, secondaries, co-investments and some credit, mezzanine and energy partnerships); its separate Alternatives, Hedge Funds and Real Estate lists are not imported.

Texas Municipal Retirement System: TMRS Private Investment Performance Since Inception (Private Equity), as of June 30, 2026. "Percentage Return" since inception as printed by TMRS for funds whose "Performance Methodology" is "IRR" (internal rate of return). TMRS does not label the IRR net or gross and does not say how or by whom it is calculated or when it is not meaningful, so IRRs of very young funds are shown as printed; it states that the information has not been prepared or approved by any manager or general partner and may not reflect their records. TMRS prints no multiple: total value = amount received + remaining value, TVPI = total value / amount invested and DPI = amount received / amount invested are computed from the reported whole-dollar columns. TMRS lists the date(s) of investment (the dates its commitments were completed, matching its Completed Investments Report) rather than a vintage year; the year of the earliest date is used as the vintage. 3 commitments are stated in euros and their committed amount is left blank (the invested, received and remaining amounts are in dollars). 9 commitments have nothing invested yet and so no IRR or multiples. 1 funded holding has no IRR because TMRS prints no return, or a time-weighted return, for it. Private Equity section only (as classified by TMRS; it includes venture, growth, buyout, co-investments and separately managed accounts); the Credit, Global Equity, Real Assets, Tactical Opportunities and Multi Asset Class sections are not imported.

UTIMCO (Permanent University Fund): Permanent University Fund Detail Schedules of Investment Securities, Schedule H: Private Investment Funds, as of August 31, 2025. Holdings only: the audited Schedule H lists each private investment fund held by the Permanent University Fund, which UTIMCO manages, with its fair value at the August 31 fiscal year end and nothing else, so vintage year, commitment, contributions, distributions, total value, IRR and multiples are blank (UTIMCO reports none of them here); each fund's fair value is kept as market_value_usd in whole dollars as printed. Fund names are as printed (capitals, abbreviated). Included are the schedule's Private Equity (159 funds), Venture (165) and Emerging Market Equity (29) sections; its Credit, Infrastructure, Natural Resources and Real Estate sections are not imported, and neither are 24 direct investments in the imported sections, which UTIMCO lists only as numbered "Direct Investment" rows because their names are confidential under Texas Government Code 552.143(c). Covers the Permanent University Fund only: UTIMCO publishes no such schedule for the General Endowment Fund, and it provides its fund-level Private Markets performance reports only in answer to an open records request.
