If GS puts $15m to Counsyl at series D under the same term as last round secondary, the carry interest could be more difficult to hurdle over, comparing to the last secondary round. GS going into our 2/20 fund is the way to go, and the benefit for RSTP far outweighs anything. I completely agree on having them in the fund and no fees on the co-investment. >>>> >>>> William Lee >>>> Rosemont Seneca Technology Partners (RSTP) >>>> Sent from my iPhone >>>> >>>>> On Mar 20, 2014, at 7:15 PM, John DeLoche <jdeloche@rosemontseneca.com> wrote: >>>>> >>>>> Yes, that's the logic.

It would help us a lot more if we could tell people GS is paying us 2 and 20 in our main fund, even for a nominal amount. Doing so in this deal could be economically better to them but allow us to credibly say they are in the fund. >>>>>>> >>>>>>> We agreed to figure it out tmw in person either before or after the Counsyl DD meeting. >>>>>>> >>>>>>> Let me know your thoughts. >>>>>>> >>>>>>> Would be great for all who are in the Bay Area tmw to join for the Counsyl meeting and lab tour (12:30-2:30). >>>>>>> >>>>>>> Best, >>>>>>> >>>>>>> John >>>>>>> >>>>>>> Sent from my iPhone
