(c) Within three (3) Business Days of the end of each month after the Closing, through the month in which the “Final Closing Date” (as such term is defined in the Fund Agreements) of Fund I occurs (including the month in which the Closing and such “Final Closing Date” occurs), the Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Sellers a written statement prepared in good faith setting forth (i) the aggregate amount of capital commitments entered into with respect to the Fund for such month, (ii) the Catch-Up Fees payable with respect to such capital commitments and (iii) the Catch-Up Fees received by Buyer or any of its Affiliates during such month and the Catch-Up Fees paid to the Sellers pursuant to Section 3.2(b) during such month (each such report, a “Catch-Up Fee Report”). In connection with the Sellers’ review of any Catch-Up Fee Report, the Buyer shall give, and shall cause its Affiliates to give, the Sellers reasonable access to all relevant files, documents and personnel used in connection with its preparation of the applicable Catch-Up Fee Report, subject to any confidentiality obligations of the Buyer.

In the event that the Sellers deliver a Dispute Notice, the Sellers and Buyer shall work in good faith for a period of thirty (30) days following the delivery of the Dispute Notice (the “Resolution Period”) to resolve the areas of disagreement set forth therein with respect to the applicable Catch-Up Fee Report. In the event that the parties resolve all matters set forth in the applicable Dispute Notice prior to the end of the Resolution Period, to the extent that such resolution resulted in a determination that the Buyer owes the Sellers any Catch-Up Fees that were not otherwise paid pursuant to the preceding Section 3.2(a), then, within five (5) Business Days following such determination, the Buyer shall pay such Catch-Up Fees to the Sellers by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account(s) as ACM shall designate in writing to the Buyer. In the event that the parties are unable to resolve all matters set forth in the applicable Dispute Notice prior to the end of the Resolution Period, the Sellers may pursue any and all remedies available to them at law or in equity to recover any Catch-Up Fees (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any costs or expenses incurred by the Sellers in connection with any such recovery). For the avoidance of doubt, the Buyer shall have no obligations pursuant to this Section 3.2(c) in respect of any months after the month in which the “Final Closing Date” (as such term is defined in the Fund Agreements) of Fund I occurs.

3.3 Earn-Out.

(a) Upon an investor in an investment vehicle or a client entering into a capital commitment during the Earn-Out Period with respect to a Qualifying Earn-Out Product, the Buyer shall pay to the Sellers an amount equal to the product of (1) .02 and (2) the aggregate amount of such capital commitment (each, an “Earn-Out Payment”). The Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid to ACM, on behalf of the Sellers, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account(s) as ACM shall designate in writing to the Buyer, such Earn-Out Payment within 120 days following the date upon which the investor or client enters into the applicable commitment. In no event will the Buyer be obligated to pay more than the Maximum Earn-Out Amount in aggregate Earn-Out Payments.

(b) From and after the Closing and until the Maximum Earn-Out Amount in aggregate Earn-Out Payments have been paid in full pursuant to Section 3.3(a), within thirty (30) days following the end of each Reporting Period, the Buyer shall deliver or caused to be delivered to the Sellers a reasonably detailed statement prepared in good faith (an “Earn-Out Report”), which

- 18 -

shall set forth, in each case along with the related calculations, but subject to any confidentiality obligations of the Buyer, (i) the Qualifying Earn-Out Product or its general partner, manager, or equivalent, the investors or client entering into capital commitments with respect to Qualifying Earn-Out Products (together with the amount of such capital commitments) during such Reporting Period, and the Earn-Out Payments attributable thereto and (ii) the cumulative amount of capital commitments with respect to Qualifying Earn-Out Products during period from and after the Closing Date and through the end of the applicable Reporting Period, together with the cumulative Earn-Out Payments attributable thereto. During the period beginning on delivery of an Earn-Out Report and ending thirty (30) days later (a “True-Up Period”), the Buyer shall make available to the Sellers and their Representatives, subject to any confidentiality obligations of the Buyer, the Qualifying Earn-Out Product or its general partner, manager, or equivalent, all relevant personnel, Representatives, books and records and other information reasonably requested by the Sellers in connection with the Sellers’ review of such Earn-Out Report, including the capital commitments entered into during such Reporting Period. Such Earn-Out Report received by ACM will be deemed to be accepted by the Sellers, and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties hereto only for purposes of such Earn-Out Report, except to the extent, if any, that ACM, on behalf of all of the Sellers, or Sellers’ accountant shall have delivered within thirty (30) days after the beginning of such True-Up Period a written notice to the Buyer stating the items to which the Sellers take exception in such Earn-Out Report, specifying in reasonable detail the nature and extent of any such exception (an “Earn-Out Dispute Notice”); provided, that neither the failure to deliver an Earn-Out Dispute Notice, nor any items disputed in any Earn-Out Dispute Notice or any calculation therein, with respect to any Earn-Out Report shall be binding with respect to any subsequent Earn-Out Report. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto understand and agree that ACM may only deliver or cause to be delivered an Earn-Out Dispute Notice once and only after the commencement of a True-Up Period. If the Buyer disputes a change proposed by ACM in an Earn-Out Dispute Notice, then the Buyer and ACM, on behalf of all of the Sellers, shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute. If, after a period of thirty (30) days following the date on which ACM delivers an Earn-Out Dispute Notice, any item noted therein still remains disputed, then the Buyer and ACM shall submit such dispute to the Independent Accounting Firm for resolution. The Independent Accounting Firm shall determine, based solely on presentations by the Buyer and ACM, and not by independent review, only those issues set forth in an Earn-Out Dispute Notice and not resolved with respect to the calculation of the amounts in such Earn-Out Report. The Buyer and the Sellers shall make available to the Independent Accounting Firm all relevant books and records and other items reasonably requested by the Independent Accounting Firm. The Independent Accounting Firm shall be instructed to deliver to the Buyer and ACM a report setting forth the Independent Accounting Firm’s resolution of the disputed items and amounts and its calculations of the amounts as promptly as practicable but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the final presentation by the Buyer or ACM. The decision of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be final, conclusive and binding, absent manifest error, and shall be the exclusive remedy of the parties hereto with respect to any disputes arising with respect to the calculation of each of the amounts set forth in the Earn-Out Report. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne by the Buyer, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the items unsuccessfully disputed or defended, as the case may be, by such party (as finally determined by the Independent Accounting Firm) bears to the total amount of the disputed items.

- 19 -

(c) Following the Closing, subject to the other provisions of this Section 3 and the provisions of the limited partnership agreement or other organizational document of any Fund or GP Party (as amended to reflect the Fund Amendments), the Business conducted by the Buyer and/or its Affiliates, the Funds and each of their Subsidiaries shall be managed in the sole and absolute discretion of the Buyer; provided that, during the Earn-Out Period, the Buyer shall not take or omit to take any action with the primary intent of eliminating the Earn-Out Payment to which the Seller is otherwise entitled; and provided further that, in no event shall the Buyer or any of its Affiliates take any action to modify or otherwise amend any of the Sellers’ rights or obligations in respect of the Fund I Carried Interest without SLPI’s prior written consent; provided further that, during the Earn-Out Period, the Buyer shall, and shall cause the P10 Entities, to not unreasonably delay accepting any capital commitments with respect to Qualifying Earn-Out Products. The Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, effect any Business Sale after the first (1^st) anniversary of the Closing Date and prior to the last day of the Earn-Out Period, unless (w) the purchaser in such Business Sale unconditionally agrees in writing to succeed to, assume and honor the obligations of the Buyer under this Agreement, including with respect to the Earn-Out Payments as set forth in this Section 3.3 and to extend the Earn-Out Period by one (1) year, (x) the succession to and assumption of the obligations of the Buyer by the purchaser in accordance with the foregoing clause (x) does not violate applicable law, (y) the Sellers determine, in their reasonable discretion, that the purchaser in such Business Sale is at least as creditworthy as the Buyer and (z) on or prior to the consummation of such Business Sale, the Buyer shall have paid in full all Earn-Out Payments that had previously become payable pursuant to this Section 3.3.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) following the Closing and prior to the last day of the Earn-Out Period where an aggregate of the Maximum Earn-Out Amount in Earn-Out Payments has not yet become payable, a Qualifying Earn-Out Product’s investment period is permanently terminated due to the occurrence of a “Cessation Event” (as defined in the Fund Agreements) that is caused by the termination of one or more Key Employees by the Buyer without cause, such that the termination of a Key Employee by the Buyer without cause is the last event that triggers the Cessation Event (it being understood and agreed that, if, for example, a specific Cessation Event requires the departure of two Key Employees, this clause (i) would be satisfied if the first Key Employee departed for any reason and then the second Key Employee were to be terminated by the Buyer without cause), or (ii) the Buyer enters into an agreement with respect to a Business Sale at any time after the Closing and on or before the first (1^st) anniversary of the Closing Date, then the maximum aggregate remaining Earn-Out Payment shall accelerate in full and become payable and the Buyer shall pay ACM on behalf of all of the Sellers (or to any other designee of the Sellers), the Maximum Earn-Out Amount in Earn-Out Payments less the amount of Earn-Out Payments previously paid, within ten (10) Business Days following (x) in the case of the foregoing clause (i), the occurrence of the event described therein and (y) in the case of the foregoing clause (ii), the consummation of such Business Sale, in each case in accordance with Section 3.3(a). If (i) the Buyer enters into an agreement with respect to a Business Sale after the first (1^st) anniversary of the Closing Date but on or before the third (3^rd) anniversary of the Closing Date (which Business Sale, for the avoidance of doubt, shall also be subject to the conditions set forth in the last sentence of the foregoing Section 3.3(c)), and (ii) at least fifty percent (50%) of the Maximum Earn-Out Amount in Earn-Out Payments (the “Years 2-3 Earn-Out Acceleration Amount”) shall not have been paid by the Buyer at such time, then (x) prior to or concurrently with the consummation of such Business Sale, the Buyer shall pay to the Sellers, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account(s) as designated in writing by ACM, an amount

- 20 -

equal to the Years 2-3 Earn-Out Acceleration Amount, less any Earn-Out Payments previously paid and (y) the purchaser in such Business Sale shall further unconditionally agree in writing that such purchaser’s obligation to make Earn-Out Payments shall commence with the first dollar of any capital commitments with respect to a Qualifying Earn-Out Product after the consummation of such Business Sale.

3.4 Modified Transaction Election.

(a) In the event that all of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 12 and Section 13 have been satisfied (excluding (x) the conditions set forth in Section 12.8 and Section 13.10 and (y) those conditions that are by their nature to be satisfied at the Closing, but only to the extent that it is reasonably expected that such conditions would actually be satisfied at the Closing), the Sellers shall have the right, on and after August 31, 2021 (exercisable in their sole discretion), to elect to modify the terms of this Agreement as set forth in Section 3.4(b) below (such election, the “Modified Transaction Election”) by delivering written notice of such election to Buyer.

(b) In the event that the Sellers make the Modified Transaction Election in accordance with the foregoing Section 3.4(a), then (i) the condition to Closing set forth in Section 13.10 shall be deemed to be irrevocably waived in full by the Buyer, (ii) the [***] shall be deemed to be removed from Schedule 2.1(d) and Schedule 3.1(b)(i)(D), (iii) the Sellers shall utilize a portion of the Closing Payment (as modified pursuant to clause (iv)) to pay the Bonaccord Business Change of Control Payment (as defined in the [***]) in accordance with Section 3.6(c) of the [***], such that no [***] or any of their respective Affiliates will hold any interest in the Business immediately after Closing, and (iv) the definitions of “Closing Payment”, “Excluded Carried Interest” and “Maximum Earn-Out Amount” as set forth in Section 1.1 of this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended and restated in their entirety for all purposes of this Agreement as follows:

(i) “Closing Payment” shall mean $43,530,000.00;

(ii) “Excluded Carried Interest” shall mean all rights to seven and six one-hundredths percent (7.06%) of the Carried Interest in the Fund, which rights are to be retained by SLPI; and

(iii) “Maximum Earn-Out Amount” shall mean $23,500,000.00.

9.3 Tax Treatment Relating to Sale of Purchased Property.

(a) The Buyer and the Sellers agree to treat the entire amount of the aggregate consideration set forth in Section 3.1 hereof as consideration to the Sellers for the sale of the Purchased Property for all federal, state, local and foreign income Tax purposes. The Buyer and the Sellers further agree to take no position inconsistent with such treatment on any Tax Return. The Sellers shall promptly notify the Buyer of the commencement and progress of any audit, investigation or other proceeding by any Taxing Authority relating to the Purchased Property or the characterization of the consideration received by the Sellers in respect of such Purchased Property. The Buyer shall notify the Sellers of the commencement and progress of any audit investigation or proceeding by any Taxing Authority relating to the Purchased Property (provided such action could have an impact on the Sellers) or the characterization of the consideration paid by the Buyer in respect of such Purchased Property. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 9.3(a), in the event of any such audit, investigation or other proceeding by an applicable Taxing Authority that results in a recharacterization of the consideration or reallocation of the Purchase Price, the Buyer and the Sellers shall be released from their obligation under the first sentence of this Section 9.3(a) and the Buyer and the Sellers shall have the right to take any action they consider appropriate including, without limitation, the filing of amended Tax Returns.

(b) As soon as practicable after the Closing, the Buyer shall deliver to ACM a statement (the “Allocation”) allocating the Purchase Price, together with the Assumed Liabilities and other applicable items, among the Purchased Property in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code. If, within 10 days after the delivery of the Allocation, ACM, acting on behalf of all of the Sellers, notifies the Buyer in writing that the Sellers object to the allocation set forth in the Allocation, the Buyer and ACM, acting on behalf of all of the Sellers, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute within 20 days. In the event that the Buyer and ACM are unable to resolve such dispute within 20 days, the Buyer and ACM, acting on behalf of the Sellers, shall jointly retain the Independent Accounting Firm to resolve the disputed items. Upon resolution of the disputed items, the allocation reflected on the Allocation shall be adjusted to reflect such resolution. The costs, fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne equally by the Buyer and the Sellers. The Buyer and the Sellers further agree to act in accordance with the Allocation in any Tax Returns or similar filings. The Sellers, and the Buyer, as may be the case, shall promptly notify the other party of the commencement and progress of any audit, investigation or other proceeding by any Taxing Authority relating to the Allocation. The Buyer and the Sellers further agree to report any subsequent adjustments to the Purchase Price in accordance with the methodology of this Section 9.3(b).

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty of any Seller contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered to the Buyer in connection herewith;

(b) any failure of any Seller to perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby on the part of such Seller to be performed;

(c) any Excluded Liability; or

(d) in the event that it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that a Buyer Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification for Losses pursuant to this Section 10.2, the enforcement by the Buyer Indemnitees of their indemnification rights under this Section 10;

provided, however, that (1) any individual indemnification claim (or, in the case of a series of related claims, such series of related claims) involving Losses of less than $50,000 shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 10.2(a) hereof (other than with respect to Fundamental Representations) and, to the extent applicable, shall not be counted toward satisfaction of the Deductible, and (2) the Buyer Indemnitees shall not be entitled to indemnification for Losses pursuant to Section 10.2(a) hereof (other than with respect to Fundamental Representations), unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses for which indemnification is sought by the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to such paragraph exceeds $750,000 (the “Deductible”), in which case the Buyer Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification for the aggregate of all such Losses in excess of the Deductible; and provided, further, that the aggregate liability of the Seller Indemnifying Party under Section 10.2(a) hereof (other than with respect to Fundamental Representations) shall not exceed $4,000,000 (the “Cap”). In no event shall the Seller Indemnifying Party’s indemnity obligations pursuant to Section 10.2(a) in the event of breach of a Fundamental Representation, or Section 10.2(b), 10.2(c) or 10.2(d), be subject to any of the limitations set forth in the provisos of the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall Seller Indemnifying Party’s aggregate liability with respect to indemnification obligations pursuant to Sections 10.2(a), 10.2(b), 10.2(c), and 10.2(d) exceed $40,000,000 plus any Earn-Out Payment, if any, in the aggregate.

- 46 -

10.3 Indemnification by the Buyer. Notwithstanding the Closing and regardless of any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any Seller or of any knowledge or information that any Seller may have, the Buyer shall indemnify and fully defend, save and hold each Seller and its respective Subsidiaries, Affiliates, directors, officers, managers, agents and employees (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) harmless from any Losses arising out of or resulting from one or more of the following:

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty of the Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered to any Seller in connection herewith;

(b) any failure of the Buyer to perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement on the part of the Buyer to be performed;

(c) the Assumed Liabilities; or

(d) in the event that it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that a Seller Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification for Losses pursuant to this Section 10.3, the enforcement by the Seller Indemnitees of their indemnification rights under this Section 10;

provided, however, that the Seller Indemnitees shall not be entitled to indemnification for Losses pursuant to Section 10.3(a) hereof (other than with respect to Fundamental Representations), unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses for which indemnification is sought by the Seller Indemnitees pursuant to such paragraph exceeds $750,000, in which case the Seller Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification for the aggregate of all such Losses in excess of $750,000; and provided, further, that the aggregate liability of the Buyer under Section 10.3(a) hereof (other than with respect to Fundamental Representations) shall not exceed the Cap. In no event shall the Buyer’s indemnity obligations pursuant to Section 10.3(a) in the event of breach of a Fundamental Representation, Section 10.3(b) or (c) be subject to any of the limitations set forth in the provisos of the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall Buyer’s aggregate liability with respect to indemnification obligations pursuant to Sections 10.3(a) and 10.3(b) exceed $40,000,000 plus any Earn-Out Payment, if any, in the aggregate; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not limit Buyer’s obligations to make the Earn-Out Payment, to the extent such amount is payable on the terms subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

10.4 Procedures for Indemnification.

(a) If a party entitled to indemnification under this Section 10 (an “Indemnitee”) asserts that a party obligated to indemnify it under this Section 10 (an “Indemnitor”) has become obligated to such Indemnitee pursuant to Section 10.2 or 10.3, as the case may be, or if any suit, action, investigation, claim or proceeding is begun, made or instituted as a result of which the Indemnitor may become obligated to an Indemnitee hereunder, such Indemnitee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Indemnitor; provided, however, that no delay in delivering such written notice to the Indemnitor shall relieve the Indemnitor from any obligation hereunder, unless, and then solely to the extent that, the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced thereby.

- 47 -

(b) The Indemnitor shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, assume the defense of, any suit, action, investigation, claim or proceeding asserted by any third party against an Indemnitee that may result in the incurrence by such Indemnitee of Losses for which such Indemnitee would be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 10; provided, however, that the Indemnitor shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any such suit, action, investigation, claim or proceeding, if (a) the Indemnitee reasonably determines that the amount of the Losses in respect of such suit, action, investigation, claim or proceeding, if successful, would be likely to exceed the Indemnitor’s liability under this Agreement or (b) such suit, action, investigation, claim or proceeding involves an allegation of the violation of Applicable Law (including fiduciary and regulatory requirements thereunder) or seeks any non-monetary remedy. The Indemnitee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate at its own expense in the defense thereof by counsel of the Indemnitee’s choice (except that the Indemnitor shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of one separate co-counsel for all Indemnitees to the extent the Indemnitee is advised, in writing by its counsel, that either (i) the counsel the Indemnitor has selected has a conflict of interest or (ii) there are legal defenses available to the Indemnitee that may be materially different from or additional to those available to the Indemnitor) and the Indemnitee shall in any event cooperate with and assist the Indemnitor to the extent reasonably possible. If the Indemnitor does not timely assume the defense of, contest or otherwise protect against such suit, action, investigation, claim or proceeding, the Indemnitee shall have the right to do so, including, without limitation, the right to make any compromise or settlement thereof, and the Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover the entire cost thereof from the Indemnitor, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, disbursements and amounts paid as the result of such suit, action, investigation, claim or proceeding, in each case subject to the limitations set forth herein; provided that the Indemnitee shall not settle any such suit, action, investigation, claim or proceeding without the consent of the Indemnitor (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and shall keep the Indemnitor reasonably apprised of the status of the applicable suit, action, investigation, claim or proceeding and any efforts to settle the same upon request of the Indemnitor.

(c) With respect to any suit, action, investigation, claim or proceeding that the Indemnitor assumes the defense of in accordance with Section 10.4(b), the Indemnitor shall not consent to the entry of a judgment or enter into any settlement with respect thereto, unless (i) the judgment or settlement provides solely for the payment of monetary damages and does not impose injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnitee and (ii) the plaintiff or claimant in the matter releases the Indemnitee from all liability or wrongdoing with respect thereto, in each case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, without the written consent of the Indemnitee (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). For the avoidance of doubt, the Indemnitor shall not consent to the entry of a judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to any suit, action, investigation, claim or proceeding for which the Indemnitor does not assume the defense in accordance with Section 10.4(b).

- 48 -

(d) In all cases in determining whether there has been a breach of a representation or warranty by the Buyer or any Seller for purposes of Section 10, or in determining the amount of any Losses with respect to a breach of a representation or warranty by the Buyer or any Seller for purposes of Section 10, such representations and warranties shall be read without regard to any materiality qualifier (including, without limitation, any reference to Material Adverse Effect or material adverse effect) contained therein; provided, however, that this Section 10.4(d) shall not apply to the representations or warranties contained in Section 5.7(a), Section 5.20, Section 5.21(a), Section 5.21(k), Section 5.24, Section 6.10 or Section 6.11.

(e) The indemnification provided for in Section 10 shall survive any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of the Indemnitee or any knowledge or information that the Indemnitee may have.

(f) All Losses recoverable by an Indemnitee shall be net of (i) insurance proceeds received by such Indemnitee or its Affiliates and (ii) any other amounts recovered and received by an Indemnitee or its Affiliates from a third party or the Fund, whether by way of payment, discount, credit, off-set, counterclaim, indemnification (including, without limitation, indemnification by the Fund), contribution or otherwise, net of any costs incurred to pursue such recovery; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have no obligation to seek recovery from insurance or any other indemnification, contribution or other payment. If any such insurance proceeds and/or other amounts are received by an Indemnitee or its Affiliates after the Indemnitor pays any amount pursuant to this Section 10, the Indemnitee shall promptly repay to the Indemnitor the amount such Indemnitor would not have had to pay pursuant to this Section 10 had such proceeds and/or other amounts been received by the Indemnitee or its Affiliates prior to such Indemnitor’s payment under this Section 10 to the Indemnitee.

(g) Each party acknowledges and agrees that, except as provided in Section 7.5(d), Section 8.4(c) and Section 15.10 or in the case of fraud with scienter, its sole and exclusive remedy following the Closing with respect to any and all claims under or relating to this Agreement shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 10.

(h) No Indemnitee shall be entitled to double recovery for any indemnifiable Loss by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such Loss, even though such Loss may have resulted from the breach of more than one of the representations, warranties and covenants, or any other indemnity, in this Agreement.

10.5 Purchase Price Adjustment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any payments pursuant to this Section 10 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

10.6 Fund Liabilities. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Seller Indemnifying Party nor any other Seller shall be obligated under this Section 10 to indemnify the Fund for any liabilities or obligations of the Fund, it being understood and agreed that the Fund shall not be considered Buyer Indemnitees for such purpose.

-49-

The foregoing does not restrict the right of any Person to disclose such information (i) to its respective directors, managers, trustees, officers, stockholders and employees or its legal or financial advisors, in each case on a need to

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, on the advice of its legal counsel, any Seller, or controlled Affiliate of a Seller, or its or its controlled Affiliates’ respective directors, managers, trustees, officers, stockholders and employees or its or its controlled Affiliates’ legal or financial advisors becomes obliged to disclose information pursuant to Applicable Law, such Person shall inform the Buyer promptly and in any event prior to such disclosure (unless such notification would be unlawful) and, if lawful and reasonably practicable, make all reasonable efforts to assist and co-operate with the Buyer in seeking a protective order or taking other appropriate action to limit or prevent such disclosure. If, despite such action, such party is obliged to make a disclosure, it shall only do so to the extent to which it is advised by its legal counsel that it is obliged to do so pursuant to Applicable Law, but not further or otherwise.

ABERDEEN STANDARD INVESTMENTS

▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇^▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇

[August     , 2021]

Dear Investor:

Aberdeen Standard Investments Inc. (“Aberdeen”) and P10 Holdings, Inc. (“P10”) have entered into an agreement pursuant to which P10 will effectively acquire the Bonaccord team and the Fund from Aberdeen (the “Transaction”). The closing of the Transaction may be completed as early as [August 31], 2021, upon the fulfillment of certain conditions to closing including certain investor and regulatory consents.

Under recent changes in senior management at Aberdeen (new CEO and new Global Head of Private Markets), Aberdeen determined that Bonaccord was “non-core” and restructured the private markets business. Aberdeen explored several options regarding Bonaccord and decided to accept an offer to buy the Bonaccord franchise from P10 Holdings. P10 is a leading, specialized multi-asset class private markets solutions provider, offering a comprehensive suite of niche-oriented private equity, venture capital, private credit and impact investing strategies. We believe P10 will be a better fit for the Bonaccord limited partners both structurally and culturally and are seeking limited partner consent to effect the transaction.

We believe that P10’s acquisition of Bonaccord will enable the Fund to benefit from meaningful growth opportunities as part of P10’s platform. P10’s sole focus is on private markets, with a particular emphasis on middle markets sponsors via their largest business, RCP Advisors. P10’s focused ecosystem will provide meaningfully better deal sourcing opportunities than our current platform as well as broader diligence insights. Culturally, P10 is smaller and more entrepreneurial, providing Bonaccord with broader autonomy to manage our business more efficiently and effectively for our limited partners.

It is important to note that the entire Bonaccord investment team currently managing the Fund will remain in place following the completion of the Transaction. In addition, the Fund’s key internal operations individual will be moving to P10 as well, ensuring operational consistency. Furthermore, we believe the Transaction will provide the team with enhanced deal origination resources, positioning Bonaccord to continue to generate the targeted investment results that you have come to expect from Bonaccord. The Transaction will have no impact on your advisory fees.

While Bonaccord and it members will continue to provide services to the Fund following the closing of the Transaction, the Transaction will result in a change in control, directly or indirectly, the Fund’s general partner. Accordingly, the Transaction may be deemed to result in an “assignment” of the investment advisory relationship between Aberdeen and the Fund under the U.S. Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. Therefore, we are requesting your consent to this change in Bonaccord’s ownership and the “assignment” of the investment advisory

relationship, including your consent to the continuation of the Fund’s investment advisory agreement on the same terms as currently in effect and the Fund’s waiver of its right to terminate the advisory relationship solely in connection with the Transaction, along with a waiver of the restrictions in Section 6.8 of the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of the Fund, which generally prohibits transfers of the General Partner’s interest, and consent to certain amendments to the Fund’s governing documents to reflect the foregoing in the form provided herewith.

To indicate your consent to the matters described above, please complete and sign the enclosed form of consent and return it to us by email to [***] at your earliest convenience.

We greatly appreciate your continued support and look forward to serving you with our new business partner, P10. Should you have any questions, please contact [***] at [***].

I also waive the restrictions set forth in Section 6.8 of the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of the Fund and consent to the amendment of the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of the Fund to reflect the foregoing.

Exhibit C

Post-Closing Services

Sellers shall provide (or cause to be provided) to the Buyer, the Funds and the GP Parties, through the date that is six (6) months from the Closing Date the following services (the “Transition Services”):

The Buyer shall be responsible for (i) charges at reasonable market rates for the Transition Services provided by Sellers’ employees or contractors and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Sellers or their Affiliates, in each case, in connection with providing the Transition Services and (ii) making all filings and paying all related costs and expenses.

Sellers shall provide (or cause to be provided) the Transition Services in good faith and in a manner generally consistent with the historical provision of such services and with the same standard of care as historically provided prior to the Closing Date.

Sellers agree to respond in good faith to any reasonable request by the Buyer, the Funds or the GP Parties, or their auditor, and to provide reasonable access to relevant records, materials and resources relevant to the Transition Services, provided that the foregoing shall not require Sellers to provide any information which would cause a violation or waiver of the attorney client privilege or would be in violation of Applicable Law or any contractual obligation of confidentiality to which any Seller is subject.

The parties acknowledge the transitional nature of the Transition Services. Accordingly, as promptly as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, Buyer agrees to make a transition of each Transition Service to its own internal organization or to obtain alternate third-party sources to provide the Transition Services. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to enter into an agreement with [***] as soon as reasonably practicable for [***] to provide directly to the Buyer and the Fund(s) all of the current services currently provided by [***] to the Sellers and the Fund(s).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will the Sellers have any liability to the Buyer in connection with Sellers’ performance of Transition Services to the extent the Sellers performed such Transition Services in good faith.
