SUMMARY RISK FACTORS

Investing in our Class A common stock involves numerous risks, including the risks described in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” of this Annual Report. Below are some of these risks, any one of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.

Our revenue in any given period is dependent on the number of fee-paying investors in such period.
Poor performance of our specialized investment vehicles can adversely affect our ability to raise capital for future specialized investment vehicles.
The success of our business depends on the identification and availability of suitable investment opportunities for our investors and competition for such access is intense.
Our failure to deal appropriately with conflicts of interest could damage our reputation; some of our obligations may conflict with interests of our stockholders.
Our ability to retain our senior leadership team and attract, retain and develop human capital in a highly competitive talent market is critical to our success.
We intend to expand our business and may enter into new lines of business or geographic markets. Acquisitions pose risks and place significant demands on our resources.
The due diligence process that we undertake in connection with investments may not reveal all facts that may be relevant in connection with an investment.
Terms of our indebtedness may adversely affect our ability to operate our business.
Dependence on leverage by certain funds and portfolio companies subjects us to risks related to volatility and contractions in the debt financing markets which could adversely affect the ability of our specialized investment vehicles to achieve attractive rates of return on those investments.
Defaults by investors in our specialized funds could adversely affect that funds' operations.
Our failure to comply with investment guidelines set by our investors could result in damage awards against us or a reduction in Fee Paying Assets Under Management ("FPAUM").
Misconduct by our employees, advisors or third-party service providers could impair our ability to attract and retain investors and subject us to legal liability and reputational harm.
Valuation methodologies for certain assets in our specialized investment vehicles can be significantly subjective, and the values of assets established pursuant to such methodologies may never be realized.
Investors may be unwilling to commit new capital because of our decision to become a public company.
Our investment management activities may involve investments in relatively illiquid assets.
Our specialized investment vehicles may be undiversified investments and investments in companies that we do not control. These investments may rank junior to investments made by other investors.
We may not be able to maintain our desired fee structure.
Restrictions on our ability to collect and analyze data regarding our investors’ investments could adversely affect our business.
Operational risks, data security breaches, loss or leakage of data and other interruptions of our information technology systems or those of our third-party service providers may disrupt our business, compromise sensitive information related to our business, or prevent us from accessing critical information. We are also subject to stringent privacy laws, information security laws, regulations, policies and contractual obligations.
We may face damage to our professional reputation and legal liability if our services are not regarded as satisfactory and any failure to maintain, protect, and enhance our brand would have an adverse impact.
We are subject to risks in using custodians, counterparties, administrators and other agents.
We may not be able to fully utilize our net operating loss (“NOL”) and other tax carryforwards or the IRS could challenge our use of the NOL.
