Rationale for Change — Why the Current Structure Is Being Reorganized

Duplicative offshore administration, audit, and regulatory costs of approximately $3.8 million annually

Forthcoming OECD Pillar Two GloBE rules diminishing the benefits of the Luxembourg SCSp structures (effective FY 2025)

Simplified compliance under FATCA and CRS across a consolidated platform

LP-requested governance simplification; preliminary LPAC consent of 78% in interest obtained April 22, 2025
