This presentation is delivered solely as reference material with respect to the Petershill Private Equity Seeding, an investment product that Goldman Sachs may offer in the future. The material provided herein is for informational purposes only.

EFTA00796858 FOR INTENDED RECIPIENT USE ONLY - NOT FOR FURTHER USE AND OR DISTRIBUTION TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC. Certain Potential Risks of an Investment in Petershill Private Equity Seeding (the "Fund") (40111011M flatlls Asset Management Recently Organized Fund; No Operating History - The Fund is a recently formed entity and has no independent operating history upon which prospective investors can evaluate its likely performance. Partial or Total Loss of Fund Capital — The Fund is intended for long-term investors who can accept the risks associated with investing in illiquid securities. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment or performance objectives, including, without limitation, locating suitable investment opportunities or fully investing its committed capital. Management Fee is Based on Total Committed Capital, Including Capital That is Not Called or Invested - The Management Fee for each Umited Partner (excluding the Affiliated Investors) will be a percentage of the Limited Partner's total amount of Committed Capital. There can be no assurance as to when capital will be invested or that all the Committed Capital will be called or invested by the Fund. As a result, each Limited Partner (excluding the Affiliated Investors) will pay a Management Fee based upon its total amount of Committed Capital even though this total amount may not be called or invested by the Fund. Public Listing of Seeding Funds' Interests — The General Partner may determine in the future to directly or indirectly list interests in the Fund or another entity that has an economic stake in the assets of the Fund and/or Onshore Fund or an Other Investment Vehicle (a Public Listing"). Any Public Listing may be made on a number of exchanges or other markets throughout the world. Due to legal. tax, regulatory and/or other considerations, certain Partners may be unable to participate in a Public Listing. Risks Relating to the Incentive Allocation — The Special Limited Partner will be entitled to an Incentive Allocation. This Incentive Allocation may be made and the Special Limited Partner may receive distributions from the Fund in respect thereof regardless of whether Umited Partners have previously received any distributions from the Fund. In addition, because the Incentive Allocation is made in respect of Profits Interests only, the Special Limited Partner may receive an Incentive Allocation even if the Fund's investments in Underlying Seed Funds (including potentially Underlying Seed Funds that generate the Profits Interest distributions and payments in respect of which such Incentive Allocation is made) experience adverse performance and Limited Partners have not earned positive returns on their investment in the Fund. Dependence on the Investment Advisor and the Seed Managers — The Investment Advisor will invest assets of the Fund through Seed Managers, and the Investment Advisor has the sole authority and responsibility for the selection of the Seed Managers. The success of the Fund depends upon. among other things. the ability of the Investment Advisor and the Seed Managers to develop and successfully implement investment strategies that achieve the Fund's investment objective, and upon the ability of the Seed Managers to develop and implement strategies that achieve their investment objectives. No assurance can be given that the Investment Advisor or any Seed Manager will be able to do so. Seed Managers' Activities May be Limited Due to, and Seed Managers May Limit, Investment by the Fund - To the extent that the Fund's investment (and/or any investments by other funds and clients managed or advised by the Investment Advisor or an affiliate) constitutes a significant percentage of an Underlying Seed Fund, and/or as a result of the Fund's receipt of a Profits Interest or other rights with respect to a Seed Manager, such Seed Manager's trading activities, including trading in certain securities. may be restricted due to certain regulatory restrictions applicable to Goldman Sachs (including relating to the aggregation of positions among different funds and accounts) and internal Goldman Sachs policies. Such restrictions may limit the opportunities or investment activities of the Seed Manager and, consequently, may adversely affect the performance of the Fund's investment with such Seed Manager. Investments with "Start-Up" Seed Managers — It is anticipated that the Fund will allocate assets primarily to "start-up" Seed Managers. which are likely to have limited or no independent track records and/or experience managing an investment advisory business, thereby making it more difficult for the Investment Advisor to evaluate the Seed Managers' and the Underlying Seed Funds' likely performance. Returns in Respect of Profits Interest Dependent on Seed Manager - Although the Investment Advisor will seek to obtain Profits Interests on behalf of the Fund. Seed Managers will be responsible for managing the Underlying Seed Funds and neither the Fund nor the Investment Advisor will have an active role in the day-to-day management of the Underlying Seed Funds. Use of Leverage by the Fund — The Fund may borrow money or use leverage for a variety of purposes, including acquiring new investments (including prior to the Fund's Initial Closing or Final Closing), leveraging existing investments to permit distributions or additional investments, facilitating the Fund's hedging activities, meeting capital calls of Underlying Seed Funds, and bridging fundings for investments in advance of capital calls. The leverage used by the Fund may take the form of indebtedness for borrowed money. which may expose the Fund to greater risks than if the Fund did not use leverage. Conflict of Interests —The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (including its affiliates) is a worldwide, full service, financial services institution engaged in a wide range of activities which may create perceived or actual conflicts of interest in relation to the Fund. Potential Loss from Currency Fluctuations - The Fund will receive capital contributions in U.S. dollars and expects to make distributions in U.S. dollars. However, the Fund may make investments, and receive proceeds in respect of certain investments, that are denominated in other currencies. Such non-U.S. dollar transactions have special risks. The Fund may be adversely affected by changes in currency rates (including as a result of the devaluation of another currency against the U.S. dollar) and in exchange control regulations and may incur transaction costs in connection with conversions between various currencies. Capitalized terms used herein are defined in the Fund's offering memorandum. An investment in the Fund will involve substantial risks and should be undertaken only be investors capable of evaluating the risks of the Fund and bearing the risks it represents. Investors should carefully review the "Risks and Potential Conflicts of Interest" section of the Fund's offering memorandum for a complete discussion of risks, a copy of which is available upon request. 2 EFTA00796859 FOR INTENDED RECIPIENT USE ONLY - NOT FOR FURTHER USE AND:OR DISTRIBUTION TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC.

Alternative Investments may impose significant fees, including incentive lees that are based upon a percentage of the realized and unrealized gains, and such fees may offset all or a significant portion of such Alternative Investment's trading profits. An individual's net returns may differ significantly from actual returns. Alternative Investments are not required to provide periodic pricing or valuation information. Investors may have limited rights with respect to their investments, including limited voting rights and participation in the management of the Alternative Investment. Alternative Investments often engage in leverage and other investment practices that are extremely speculative and involve a high degree of risk. Such practices may increase the volatility of performance and the risk of investment loss. Including the loss of the entire amount that Is Invested. Alternative Investments may purchase instruments that are traded on exchanges located outside the United States that are "principal markets" and are subject to the risk that the counterparly will not perform with respect to contracts. Past performance does not guarantee future results. which may vary. The value of investments and the income derived from investments will fluctuate and can go down as well as up. A loss of principal may occur. Alternative Investments are offered in reliance upon an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. for offers and sales of securities that do not involve a public offering. No public or other market is available or will develop. Similarly, interests in an Alternative Investment are highly illiquid and generally are not transferable without the consent of the sponsor, and applicable securities and tax laws will limit transfers. Alternative Investments may themselves invest in instruments that may be highly illiquid and extremely difficult to value. This also may limit your ability to redeem or transfer your investment or delay receipt of redemption or transfer proceeds. Alternative Investments are not required to provide their investors with periodic pricing or valuation information. Alternative Investments may involve complex tax and legal structures and accordingly are only suitable for sophisticated investors.

Therefore. the Manager is not required to deliver certain CFTC-compliant disclosure documents and certified annual reports to investors in the Fund. In order to rely on the Rule 4.13(a) (3) Exemption. the Fund may only engage in a limited amount of commodity interest transactions. which includes transactions involving futures contracts and swaps. Effect of fees on performance: The following table provides a simplified example of the effect of management and incentive fees on portfolio returns. For example. assume a portfolio has a steady investment return. gross of fees, of 0.5% per month and total management fees of 0.1042% per month of the market value of the portfolio on the last day of the month and incentive fees of 5% of net profits. Management fees and incentive fees are deducted from the market value of the portfolio on that day. There are no cash flows during the period. The table shows that, assuming that other factors such as investment return and fees remain constant. the difference increases due to the compounding effect over time. Of course. the magnitude of the difference between gross-of-fee and net-of-fee returns will depend on a variety of factors. and the example has been intentionally simplified.

There can be no assurance that any objectives or targets stated in this material can be achieved: any targets provided are subject to change and do not provide any assurance as to future results. The ability of underlying funds to achieve their objectives or targets depends upon a variety of factors, not the least of which are political, public market and economic conditions. Any historical performance of individual partnerships shown is for informational purposes only and does not guarantee their future performance, which can vary considerably. The trading market for the securities of any portfolio investment of the underlying funds may not be sufficiently liquid to enable such funds to sell such securities when it believes it is most advantageous to do so, or without adversely affecting the stock price. In addition. such portfolio companies may be highly leveraged, which leverage could have significant adverse consequences to these companies and the funds offered by AIMS Private Equity. Furthermore, restrictions on transferring interests in AIMS Private Equity funds may exist so prospective investors should be prepared to retain their investments in any AIMS Private Equity fund until the fund liquidates. For a complete discussion of risks that are unique to a particular AIMS Private Equity fund. please refer to the respective fund's offering documents, which should be carefully reviewed prior to investing. Past performance does not guarantee future results, which may vary. The value of Investments and the Income derived from Investments will fluctuate and can go down as well as up.
