Summary
The fund operates as a Delaware limited partnership established February 11, 2025, qualifying as a private fund exempt from registration pursuant to Section 3(c)(7) of the Securities Exchange Act. This exemption allows the fund to operate without public reporting requirements while maintaining structured disclosure obligations to the SEC. The fund's capital structure comprises multiple unit classes—Class A-S, A-D, A-I, E-S, E-D, E-I, S, D, I, and C—which typically differentiate investor categories (such as Sovereign wealth, Domestic, and International investors) and associated fee arrangements.
The July 1, 2026 transaction occurred within the operational context of Carlyle Group's diversified alternative asset management platform, which manages capital across four reportable segments: Corporate Private Equity, Real Assets, Global Credit, and Investment Solutions. Carlyle's corporate private equity segment alone managed approximately $109.7 million in assets during the comparable reporting period. The unit sale demonstrates active secondary market activity and liquidity provisions within Carlyle's private equity fund infrastructure, supporting investor exit strategies and capital reallocation.
The fund maintains its principal executive offices at 1001 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C., with legal representation provided by Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP. The structure and transaction mechanics align with standard private equity fund operations, where secondary unit sales permit limited partners to adjust portfolio exposures without requiring primary capital contributions or fund-level restructuring.
