The principals average over twenty-three years private equity experience and seventeen years tenure with the GP. They will be supported by thirty-one additional investment professionals and forty-one support staff. H&F is headquartered in San Francisco with additional offices in New York and London. As of March 31, 2009, H&F’s prior funds had invested $11.7 billion among sixty-nine portfolio companies, realized $15.2 billion among fifty-one of those companies, earning a gross realized Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 31.4% and a 1.9X capital multiple. These prior funds have approximately $7.4 billion of unrealized value of which 58% is for H&F VI. Based on benchmarks from Venture Economics the H&F Funds I through V have generated top quartile net returns, with Fund VI performance still too early to be meaningful.

LACERS Los Angeles City Employees’ Retirement System

Report to Board of Administration From: Daniel P. Gallagher, Chief Investment Officer

Agenda of: AUGUST 3, 2009 ITEM: V−A

SUBJECT: NOTIFICATION OF UP TO $20 MILLION INVESTMENT IN HELLMAN &

FRIEDMAN CAPITAL PARTNERS VII, L.P. Recommendation: That the Board receive and file this notice. Discussion: Attached is an investment abstract for Hellman & Friedman Capital Partners VII, L.P. (H&F VII) prepared by Hamilton Lane, LACERS’ traditional alternative investments consultant. Background H&F VII (Fund) is projected to be a $7 billion, hard cap $10 billion, middle-market to large cap buyout fund focusing on a variety of industries, including financial services, media, software/data services, business services, healthcare, internet/digital media, and energy/industrials. Investments will be pursued both in the U.S. and Western Europe with a small percentage that can be invested in Eastern Europe, Asia and Australia. LACERS has invested $31 million in H&F Funds with $11 million in H&F V (vintage 2004), and $20 million in H&F VI (vintage 2007). The General Partner (GP), founded in 1987 by Warren Hellman and Tully Friedman, has an experienced team. The majority of team members have worked and invested successfully together over many years and through several economic and private equity market cycles. H&F VII will be managed by senior partners Warren Hellman, Brian Powers, Philip Hammarskjold, Patrick Healy, and Thomas Steyer. The principals average over twenty-three years private equity experience and seventeen years tenure with the GP. They will be supported by thirty-one additional investment professionals and forty-one support staff. H&F is headquartered in San Francisco with additional offices in New York and London. As of March 31, 2009, H&F’s prior funds had invested $11.7 billion among sixty-nine portfolio companies, realized $15.2 billion among fifty-one of those companies, earning a gross realized Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 31.4% and a 1.9X capital multiple. These prior funds have approximately $7.4 billion of unrealized value of which 58% is for H&F VI. Based on benchmarks from Venture Economics the H&F Funds I through V have generated top quartile net returns, with Fund VI performance still too early to be meaningful.

Page 2: Los Angeles City Employees’ Retirement System

Strategy The GP will pursue an opportunistic investment strategy, and seek both control and non-control positions in portfolio companies that have competitive market strength among several factors: strong brand names; a loyal customer base; regulatory, capital, or scale barriers to entry; superior distribution systems; and, other business operations that are able to generate predictable revenue and earnings growth, high levels of cash flow, and strong operating management teams in place. The GP will focus on making large-scale investments, which should result in a portfolio of twelve to fifteen companies with equity investments ranging from $300 million to $1.5 billion. No more than 10% of the commitments will be made in anyone company, and no more than 33% of the commitments will be invested outside of North America. The exit strategy will include sales to strategic buyers or financial sponsors, and initial public offerings. The GP will align its interest with the limited partners by committing $400 million (or 5.71 %) of the committed capitaL The GP does not outsource its fundraising or use placement agents.

Organizationat Issue During 2009, H&F anticipates completing its third generational transition for the firm. Warren Hellman will step down as Chairman to be replaced by Brian Powers. Philip Hammeraskjold will become CEO, and Patrick Healy will become Deputy CFO. However, the GP has successfully completed several prior transitions as the firm has invested across multiple economic cycles. The team appears positive, intact and content with the leadership transition. The Investment Committee will remain the same'.

Commitment Size Hamilton Lane has recommended a commitment of $20 million to Hellman & Friedman Capital Partners VII, L.P. As staff concurs, no Board action is required.

Section 3 -ApPENDICES

3.1 SUMMARY OF TERMS

Term: Unless terminated sooner, the Partnership will have a term of ten years; from the date the General Partner activates the Partnership. At the General Partner's discretion and with the consent of a majority in interest of the Limited Partners, the term may be extended for two years to allow for the orderly termination of the Partnership. The Partnership is subject to earlier dissolution and termination upon the occurrence of certain events described in the Partnership Agreement.

Minimum Inv.: The minimum capital commitment by a Limited Partner will be $10 million, although the Partnership may accept capital commitments of lesser amounts at the discretion of the General Partner

GP Commitment: H&F professionals will make an aggregate capital commitment of at least $400 million to the Partnership and the Parallel Funds (as defined below). In addition, the General Partner may elect annually to co-invest an additional amount (measured as a percentage of the investment otherwise available to the Partnership and the Parallel Funds) in each Investment made by the Partnership during such fiscal year; provided, that the General Partner shall not decrease the level of its co­investment from the level of the previous year.

Management Fee: The Partnership will pay an annual management fee ("Management Fee") to an entity or entities designated by the General Partner (the "Management Company"), payable in quarterly installments in respect of each Limited Partner. The Management Fee with respect to a Limited Partner will equal

(i) 1.50% per annum of such Limited Partner's total Commitment during the Commitment Period and (ii) as of the first fiscal quarter following the earlier of the end of the Commitment Period or the commencement of operations of a successor equity partnership with investment objectives substantially similar to those of the Partnership, 0.75% per annum of such Limited Partner's proportionate share of the cost of Investments then held by the Partnership. Limited Partners joining the Partnership at Subsequent Closings will contribute (from their Remaining Commitments) their allocable share of the Management Fee that otherwise would have been payable had all Limited Partners been admitted at the Initial Closing, plus additional amounts thereon at the prime rate plus 2% from the date such Management Fees would have been paid. Such contributions (other than such additional amounts) will

, reduce these Limited ! Partners' Remaining Commitments.
