estimations contained in this information are reasonable, this information has not been audited or verified by an independent party. This information could also include performance that has been calculated based,
in whole or in part, on unrealised valuations. There can be no assurance that partially realised or unrealised investments will be realised at the valuations indicated and used to calculate the performance information
set out in this presentation. Estimates of unrealised value are subject to many variables that change over time (e.g., the ability to consummate attractive investments, future operating results, asset values, market
conditions at the time of realisation, any related transaction costs and the timing and manner of sale), and therefore the amounts actually realised will vary, in some cases materially, from the estimated unrealised
values used in connection with the calculations referenced in this presentation.

Disclaimer
In considering the performance information in this presentation, you should bear in mind that future events cannot be predicted with any certainty, and past or target performance or predictability of returns is not a
guarantee, projection or prediction and is not necessarily indicative of future results. Case Studies are only for reference purpose. Yield Plus is an investment strategy with multiple funds /scheme and the returns
/results between various schemes may differ. Due to various risks and uncertainties, actual events or results, the actual performance of the investments may differ materially from those reflected or contemplated in
this presentation. Actual events or results often depend upon factors that are beyond the control of EAAA. There can be no assurance that any of the Fund will achieve comparable results, that historical trends will
continue, that estimated, or target returns will be met or that any of the Funds will be able to implement its investment strategy and investment approach or achieve its investment objectives. As used throughout this
presentation, and unless otherwise indicated, all returns are presented on a “gross” basis. Gross IRRs and gross multiples of invested capital (i.e., the total combined value divided by the invested amount) do not
reflect management fees, “carried interest,” taxes (whether borne by investors or entities through which they participate in investments), broken-deal expenses and other transaction costs in connection with the
disposition of unrealised investments and other expenses to be borne by investors in a Fund, which will reduce returns and in the aggregate are expected to be substantial. Prospective investors should review
carefully the notes and other qualifying information accompanying the presentation of performance information and feel free to ask the manager / advisor any questions on types of fees they might pay.
