NAV Performance to 31 January 2016

NAV increased in the period by 5.6%, from $15.86 to $16.75, vs. a decrease of

6.3% for the MSCI ACWI on a total return basis

The increase was driven by profitable realisations

By value, 67% of a large sample of underlying companies* grew EBITDA in the

twelve months ending 31 January 2016

– Of these, 3/5 were growing at a rate greater than 10% per annum

The weighted average EBITDA multiple in the sampled portfolio is 9.9x (from 9.4x

in the prior year)

The average debt multiple is 4.2x (3.9x)

16

*These portfolio metrics reflect an analysis of 1,696 buyout companies in developing and investing U.S. and international HarbourVest funds where data is available. This represented

39% of the total buyout NAV at 31 January 2016. Please note that the sample is larger than that taken in the prior year, hence figures will not tie back to last year’s Annual Report.

Profile of Realisations to 31 January 2016

HVPE’s mature portfolio continues to generate cash from realisations

The average age of the underlying companies is 6.3 years

The 2005-8 vintages are generating the strongest realisation flow, but there is an

increasingly significant contribution from the 2010 and 2011 vintages

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains certain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, anticipated

events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be indentified by terms such as

‘‘anticipate,’’ ‘‘believe,’’ ‘‘could,’’ ‘‘estimate,’’ ‘‘expect,’’ ‘‘intend,’’ ‘‘may,’’ ‘‘plan,’’ ‘‘potential,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘will,’’ and ‘‘would,’’ or the negative of those terms or other

comparable terminology. The forward-looking statements are based on the Investment Manager’s beliefs, assumptions, and expectations of future performance and market

developments, taking into account all information currently available. These beliefs, assumptions, and expectations can change as a result of many possible events or factors,

not all of which are known or are within the Investment Manager’s control. If a change occurs, the Company’s business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations

may vary materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause actual results to vary from those expressed in forward-looking

statements, include, but are not limited to: the factors described in this report; the rate at which HVPE deploys its capital in investments and achieves expected rates of return;

HarbourVest’s ability to execute its investment strategy, including through the identification of a sufficient number of appropriate investments; the ability of third-party managers

of funds in which the HarbourVest funds are invested and of funds in which the Company may invest through parallel investments to execute their own strategies and achieve

intended returns; the continuation of the Investment Manager as manager of the Company’s investments, the continued affiliation with HarbourVest of its key investment

professionals and the continued willingness of HarbourVest to sponsor the formation of and capital raising by, and to manage, new private equity funds; HVPE’s financial

condition and liquidity, including its ability to access or obtain new sources of financing at attractive rates in order to fund short term liquidity needs in accordance with the

investment strategy and commitment policy; changes in the values of or returns on investments that the Company makes; changes in financial markets, interest rates or industry,

general economic or political conditions; and the general volatility of the capital markets and the market price of HVPE’s shares. By their nature, forward-looking statements

involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties because they relate to events, and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. Forward-looking

statements are not guarantees of future performance. Any forward-looking statements are only made as at the date of this document, and the Investment Manager neither

intends nor assumes any obligation to update forward-looking statements set forth in this document whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except

as required by law or other applicable regulation. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the events described by any such forward-looking statements might not

occur. HarbourVest qualifies any and all of its forward-looking statements by these cautionary factors. Please keep this cautionary note in mind while reading this report.
