Consider a 'Waterfall' where the GP has a $20M 'Clawback' obligation at the end of a fund's life.
This obligation most likely arose because which scenario occurred?
- The LP failed to meet a capital call, and the GP was required to cover the shortfall from their own carried interest account.
- The fund's management fees exceeded the 2.0% annual cap defined in the fee provisions of the Limited Partnership Agreement governing the fund.
- The GP received carry on early profitable deals, but subsequent deal losses lowered the total fund return below the preferred hurdle.
- The GP failed to invest at least 80% of the committed capital before the expiration of the defined investment period set out in the LPA terms.
