| As of December 31, 2014, the outstanding Offset Amount to be paid to the investment manager was approximately $102.1M. The “Offset Amount” is an amount equal to the fees and other costs of the placing and admission of the public shares, commissions paid to placement agents and other formation and offering expenses incurred during the private phase of PSH plus accrued interest of 4.25% per annum. As of the date of the placing of the PSH shares, the total Offset Amount was $120M. As of December 31, 2014, the Offset Amount had been reduced by approximately $17.9M net of accrued interest. Once the Offset Amount has been fully paid, PSH’s incentive fee of 16% will be reduced by 20% of the aggregate incentive fees/allocation earned by the investment manager (and its affiliates) on the gains of other private funds managed by the investment manager. Since December 31, 2014, an additional $27.7M net of accrued interest, has been accrued/crystallized towards the Offset Amount. Accrued amounts have not yet been crystallized and are subject to increases/decreases in the future. | |||||||||||||||||||||
