as 5M shares of convertible preferred stock. The founder and employees of Newco have claims on
10M shares of common stock. Thus, following the Series A investment. Newco will have 10M
common shares outstanding and would have 15M shares outstanding on conversion of the CP. EBV

exit valuation of $250M.
The $100M EBV fund has annual fees of 2 percent for each of its 10 years of life and earns
percent carried interest on all profits. Assume the following: The cost of venture capital is 10%:
Expected GVM -2.5; expected retention for first round investors is 50%. GP% - 10%. Apply
standard assumptions listed in the textbook and lecture notes for additional data and information
