Fund Sigma is creating a 'Continuation Vehicle' (CV) for its star asset, PrismCo. The current NAV of PrismCo is $500M. The GP offers LPs the choice to cash out at a 15% discount to NAV or roll into the CV.
If an LP with an $8M interest chooses to cash out, what is their distribution, and why might the GP prefer a CV over a traditional trade sale?
- $8M; To avoid paying any carried interest on this deal
- $6.8M; To extend the holding period for a high-performing asset
- $1.2M; To liquidate the fund's remaining assets quickly
- $6.8M; To reset the management fee schedule to a materially higher rate
