The offer and sale of the Units were made as part of the Fund’s continuous private offering and were exempt from the

registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Regulation D

promulgated thereunder. The Units were sold to investors, including through CPEP Feeder, L.P. (the “Feeder”), a Delaware

limited partnership for certain investors with particular tax characteristics, such as certain U.S. tax-exempt investors and certain

non-U.S. investors.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

Transactional Net Asset Value

The Fund calculates the Transactional NAV for purposes of establishing the price at which transactions in the respective Units

are made. A description of the Fund’s valuation process is included under “Item 1(c). Description of Business—Valuation” and

“Item 9. Market Price of and Dividends on the Registrant’s Common Equity and Related Shareholder Matters—Valuation

Policy” in Amendment No. 2 to the Fund's Registration Statement on Form 10, filed with the Securities and Exchange

Commission on August 6, 2025 (the “Registration Statement”). Transactional NAV is based on the month-end values of the

Fund’s investments and other assets (including cash and cash equivalents) and the deduction of any respective liabilities,

including certain fees and expenses (such as the Incentive Allocation and Management Fee, as applicable to the respective

class), in all cases as determined in accordance with the valuation policies and procedures adopted by the Fund. During the first

twelve months following the Initial Closing on October 1, 2025, the Investment Advisor is limiting the Fund’s Specified

Expenses to 0.60% of net assets (annualized). To achieve this, the Investment Advisor may waive a portion of its management

fees and/or absorb or reimburse certain Fund expenses as needed. For purposes of calculating Transactional NAV, the Expense

Support paid by the Investment Advisor will be reflected as a reduction to Transactional NAV in the month the Fund

reimburses the Investment Advisor for such costs, provided that any reimbursement during the 12-month Expense Support

period does not cause Specified Expenses to exceed the 0.60% limit; after that period, the limit no longer applies. Servicing

Fees, as applicable, are recognized as a reduction to Transactional NAV on a monthly basis as such fees are paid. Definitions of

Specified Expenses and Expense Support are included within “Item 2. Financial Information” of the Registration Statement.

Certain contingent tax liabilities may not be recognized as a reduction to Transactional NAV if the General Partner reasonably

expects such liabilities will not be recognized upon divestment of the underlying investment. Transactional NAV per Unit may

differ from the Fund’s net asset value as determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United

States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

Total Transactional NAV as of ~~February~~March 2831, 2026 is $7287.87 million. The Transactional NAV per Unit for each class of the Fund

outstanding as of ~~February~~March 2831, 2026, is as follows:

	As of February 28, 2026
	As of March 31, 2026
Class	Number of Units	Transactional NAV(1)
Class A-I	868,~~830~~820	$28.4698
Class A-S	29,000	$28.4190
Class E-I	1,519,737	$28.41
Class E-A	48,143	$28.90
Class E-S	11,050	$28.40
Class E-I	1,923,732	$28.91
Class C	130,825	$28.99
Class E-S	11,050	$28.88
Class C	148,072	$29.59

___________

at the Feeder.
