3 Important Disclosures Not an offer. These materials are provided as an overview of The Blackstone Group L.P. and are for informational purposes only, and do not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any security or instrument, or a solicitation of interest in any particular Blackstone fund, account or strategy. If such an offer is made, it will only be made by means of an offering document, which would contain material information (including certain risks of investing in such security, fund or strategy) not contained in these materials and which would supersede and qualify in its entirety the information set forth in these materials. Any decision to invest in a fund should only be made after reviewing the offering document, conducting such investigations as an investor deems necessary and consulting the investor s own legal, accounting and tax advisors in order to make an independent determination of the suitability and consequences of an investment. Performance Information. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results and there can be no assurance that any Blackstone fund or strategy will achieve comparable results, or that any investments made by Blackstone in the future will be profitable. Actual realized value of currently unrealized investments will depend on, among other factors, future operating results, the value of the assets and market conditions at the time of disposition, any related transaction costs and the timing and manner of sale, all of which may differ from the assumptions and circumstances on which the current unrealized valuations are based. Accordingly, the actual realized values of unrealized investments may differ materially from the values indicated herein. General. Data in the materials is as of March 31, 2014 unless otherwise noted. Unless otherwise indicated, assets under management ( AUM ) in this presentation refers to total assets under management, which differs from fee-earning assets under management. Neither Blackstone, any Blackstone fund nor any of Blackstone s affiliates makes any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of the information contained herein. Unless otherwise specified, the source for all graphs, charts and information in these materials is Blackstone. Certain information contained in these materials has been obtained from sources outside Blackstone. While such information is believed to be reliable for purposes used herein, no representations are made as to the accuracy or completeness thereof and Blackstone does not take any responsibility for such information. Certain information contained in the presentation discusses general market activity, industry or sector trends, or other broad-based economic, market or political conditions and should not be construed as research or investment advice. Index Comparisons. The volatility and risk profile of the indices presented may be materially different from that of the Blackstone funds. In addition, the indices employ different investment guidelines and criteria than the funds and do not employ leverage; as a result, the holdings in the funds and the liquidity of such holdings may differ significantly from the securities that comprise the indices. The indices are not subject to fees or expenses and it may not be possible to invest in the indices. The performance of the indices has not been selected to represent an appropriate benchmark to compare to the performance of the Blackstone funds, but rather is disclosed to allow for comparison of the funds performance to that of well-known and widely recognized indices. A summary of the investment guidelines for the indices presented are available upon request. In the case of equity indices, performance of the indices reflects the reinvestment of dividends. Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The materials contain information regarding Blackstone s financial results prepared on a basis of accounting generally accepted in the United States of America ( GAAP ) as well as certain financial measures calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with GAAP ( non-gaap ). Definitions and calculations for each of these non-gaap measures can be found in the Appendix to the materials. Blackstone 1

4 Important Disclosures, continued Forward-Looking Statements. These materials may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which reflect Blackstone s current views with respect to, among other things, Blackstone s operations and financial performance. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as outlook, believes, expects, potential, continues, may, will, should, seeks, approximately, predicts, intends, plans, estimates, anticipates or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. Blackstone believes these factors include but are not limited to those described under the section entitled Risk Factors in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, as such factors may be updated from time to time in its periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which are accessible on the SEC s website at These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this presentation and in the filings. Blackstone undertakes no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. GSO Section, page 3. Certain GSO entities act as sub adviser to the business development companies ( BDCs ). The applicable non GSO entities that act as advisers to the BDCs (the BDC Advisers ) retain investment discretion over the BDCs investment programs. Thus, while GSO proposes investment opportunities to the BDC Advisers for investment by the BDCs, the BDC Advisers have investment discretion to approve or reject such proposed investment opportunities. GSO does not have investment discretion with respect to the BDCs. Strategic Partners Section, page 1. Net returns for Strategic Partners flagship funds, SP I SP V, are from inception in December 2000 to December 31, The valuation policy of each of the Funds is to mark its holdings to amounts that reflect the fair value of the underlying portfolio investments as reported by the general partners or managers of the underlying funds, rather than the cost of the secondary investments paid by the respective Fund. The purchase discounts (or premiums) paid at the closing of a transaction initially impact the internal rate of return, which over time reflects subsequent changes in the valuations of the underlying funds. The performance of SP I, SP II, SP III and SP V as applicable is presented together with such Funds parallel funds on a combined basis. Gross internal rate of return ( IRR ) is annualized and calculated based on the limited partners daily inflows and outflows, before fund expenses and the general partner s carried interest of the Fund, but after the fund expenses and carried interest of the underlying funds. Net IRR is calculated after management fees and fund expenses and the general partner s carried interest of the Fund. Each of SP I, SP II, SP III and SP 2007 has a lower carried interest than that of SP IV and SP V. In addition, SP I has a different fee structure compared to the other Funds. SP V has experienced limited investment dispositions and the relevant measurement / holdings periods over which the IRRs have been calculated are significantly shorter than the anticipated average holding period of the Fund s investments. Accordingly, such IRRs are not meaningful at this time. BAAM Section, page 2. BAAM Principal Solutions Composite covers the period from January 2000 to present, although BAAM s inception date is September BAAM s Principal Solutions Composite does not include BAAM s long-only equity, long-biased commodities, seed, strategic opportunities (external investments) or advisory platforms. BAAM s external AUM in specialized or customized solutions includes BAAM s customized, strategic opportunity, strategic capital, seed, long-only equity, long-biased commodity, and individual investor solutions platforms.
