VALUATION METHODOLOGY

The Company carries its private direct equity investments on its books at fair value using the best information it has reasonably available to determine or estimate fair value. Publicly traded securities are valued based on quoted prices as of the last day of the relevant period less discounts to reflect legal restrictions, if any, that affect marketability. The Company determines such values for publicly traded securities held directly as well as known public positions held in the underlying private direct equity investments on a look-through basis. The Company estimates fair value for private interests based on a methodology that begins with the most recent information available from the general partner of the underlying fund or the lead investor of a direct equity investment, and considers subsequent transactions, such as drawdowns or distributions, as well as other information judged to be reliable that reports or indicates valuation changes, including realizations and other portfolio company events. The Company proactively re-values its investments before it has received updated information from the fund manager or lead investor if it becomes aware of material events that justify a change in valuation. If the Company concludes that it is probable an investment will be sold, the Company will adjust the fair value to the amount the Company expects to realize from the sale, net of transaction costs.

For debt investments, the Company estimates the enterprise value of each portfolio company and compares such amount to the total amount of such portfolio company's debt, as well as the level of debt senior to our interest in such portfolio company. Estimates of enterprise value are based on a specific measure (such as EBITDA, free cash flow, net income, book value or NAV) believed to be most relevant for the given portfolio company and compares this metric in relation to comparable company valuations (market trading and transactions) based on the same metric. In determining the enterprise value, the Company will further consider the portfolio companies' acquisition price, credit metrics, historical and projected operational and financial performance, liquidity as well as industry trends, general economic conditions, scale and competitive advantages along with other factors deemed relevant. Valuation adjustments are made if estimated enterprise value does not support the value of the debt security in which the Company is invested and securities senior to NBPE's position.

If the principal repayment of debt and any accrued interest is supported by the enterprise value analysis described above, the Company will next consider current market conditions including pricing quotations for the same security and yields for similar investments. To the extent market quotations for the security are available, the Company will take into account current pricing and liquidity. Liquidity may be estimated by the spread between bid and offer prices and other available measures of market liquidity, including number and size of recent trades and liquidity scores. If the Company believes market yields for similar investments have changed substantially since the pricing of our security, the Company will perform a discounted cash flow analysis, based on the expected future cash flows of the debt securities and current market rates. The Company will also consider the maturity of the investment, compliance with covenants and ability to pay cash interest when estimating the fair value of our debt investment.

TRADING VOLUME AND SHARE REPURCHASE ACTIVITY

During the month of February, NBPE's aggregate trading volume on Euronext Amsterdam, the London Stock Exchange, and over-the-counter trading platforms was 897,427 Class A ordinary shares, which represents an average daily trading volume of approximately 42,735 Class A ordinary shares.

On 22 October 2010, NBPE launched a new Share Buy-Back Programme in order to begin implementing the Capital Return Policy. The Share Buy-Back Programme is the subject of periodic review by the Board. The Board of Directors of the Company has approved an extension of the share buyback program through 31 May 2016. The documentation for such extension is currently in process. Under the terms of the Share Buy-Back Programme, Jefferies International Limited has been appointed to effect on-market repurchases of Shares on behalf of NBPE on Euronext Amsterdam and/or the Specialist Fund Market of the London Stock Exchange. Shares bought back under the Share Buy-Back Programme will be cancelled.

There were no shares repurchased during the month of February. As of 29 February 2016, there were 48,790,564 class A ordinary shares and 10,000 class B ordinary shares outstanding, with 3,150,408 class A ordinary shares held in treasury.

• 1. The diversification analysis by asset class and investment type is based on the fair value of underlying fund investments and direct/co-investments. The diversification analysis by year of investment, geography and industry is based on the diversification of underlying portfolio company investments at fair value as estimated by the Investment Manager. The year of investment is calculated at the portfolio company level and is defined as the date of capital deployment into a particular underlying investment. The diversification by year of investment also includes an allocation of net cash flows and valuation adjustments made since financial statements were last received from the investment sponsor. Accordingly, the actual diversification of the Company's investment portfolio and the diversification of the Company's investment portfolio on an ongoing basis may vary from the foregoing information.
• 1. Direct equity investment diversification includes all equity, including associated equity from income investments.
