BLUE ORANGE CAPITAL L.P.


Who we are
Blue Orange Capital L.P. (“BlueOrange”, “our” or “we”) is a Delaware limited partnership organized on July 8, 2016. Our general partner is Blue Orange (DE) GP LLC (“DE GP”), a Delaware limited liability company. Our office is in Washington, DC. Bertrand Badré, Partner and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Rashad Kaldany, Partner and Chief Investment Officer (“CIO”), and Amer Baig, Partner, serve on our Investment Committee (“IC”). They are members of our management team (“Management” or “Management Team”), as are Suprotik Basu, a Partner, and Emmanuelle Yannakis, a Partner and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), Chief Operating Officer (“COO”) and Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”). The other roles performed by these individuals are discussed herein, as are the conflicts of interest arising from these roles and the means used to address such conflicts.
What we do
We provide non-discretionary investment advisory services to Luxembourg Investment Solutions S.A. (“LIS”), a Luxembourg société anonyme, under a non-discretionary investment advisory agreement (“Advisory Agreement”). LIS is authorized and supervised by the Luxembourg Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (“CSSF”) as an alternative investment fund manager (“AIFM”) under the Luxembourg Law of 12 July 2013 and the EU Alternative Investment Funds Directive. LIS is the AIFM to Blue like an Orange Sustainable Capital Fund SICAV-SIF SCS, an umbrella fund (“Fund”).
The Fund, sub-funds and the general partner
The Fund has an umbrella structure and will consist of several sub-fund(s). The Fund’s investment objective is to provide attractive risk-adjusted, market-level financial return to achieve sustainable development from capital invested in eligible assets for the benefit of its investors while reducing investment risks through diversification. Each sub-fund will have its own pool of assets that will be invested in accordance with the investment objective, investment policy and investment restrictions applicable to that sub-fund. The Fund general partner is BlueOrange Sustainable Capital Fund GP S.à r.l., a Luxembourg société à responsabilité limitée (“Fund GP”). It is a related person of ours and it is subject to our written policies and procedures, including our Code of Ethics (“Code”), which is discussed in Item 11. Mr Badré, Mr Baig and Mrs Yannakis are Managers of the Fund GP. Christian Hertz, the Managing Director, Chief Legal Officer and Chief Compliance Officer of LIS, is, due to a CSSF requirement, also a Manager of the Fund GP. The Fund GP is not an AIFM. The Fund GP has the power and authority to manage the business and affairs of the Fund and its sub-funds. The first sub-fund, Blue like an Orange Sustainable Capital Latin America Fund I (“Sub-Fund 1”), seeks to achieve risk-adjusted market-level financial returns through sustainable development investing in companies and projects that serve the social, economic and environmental needs for entrepreneurs and businesses in Latin America and the Caribbean. Lending will take the form of mezzanine debt and debt securities, including but not limited to convertible bonds, high yield debt, warrants, hybrid instruments and similar instruments, such as certain equity-kickers. Sub-Fund 1 will invest in senior debt investments with a risk/return profile consistent with its stated overall risk/return profile. We work on our own, and with IDB Invest and other co-investment partners (“Co-Investment Partners”), to source opportunities for Sub-Fund 1 through the network of existing clients of the Co- investment Partners. We and the Fund GP are not affiliated with the Co-Investment Partners or their clients. The Co-Investment Partners will act as the lender of record to make mezzanine loans, and Sub- Fund 1 will buy participations in such loans, with Sub-Fund 1 buying the majority portion of such loans. Upon receipt of funds from capital calls from investors and prior to investment, Sub-Fund 1 will invest such cash in one or more money market funds. We will make investment recommendations to LIS for particular investment opportunities, who, in turn, will act upon the recommendations and cause Sub- Fund 1 to be so invested. As of the date of this Brochure, we have $ 106,713,427 in regulatory assets under management.
How we work
We engage in the following activities on a continuous and regular basis:
• source, research, identify, evaluate and propose investment opportunities, through our own network or the network of the Co-Investment Partners;
• perform due diligence in connection with such potential investments;
• research and formulate advice and recommendations;
• generate advice and recommendations and provide these to LIS;
• negotiate but not agree (this is a role of LIS) investment terms for loans;
• provide ongoing and active review and oversight of investments;
• monitor the performance of investments; and
• report on the social development impact of the investments of each sub-fund.

We have no power to exercise discretion or enter into any transaction or agreement for or on behalf of a sub-fund. We cannot make investment decisions for a sub-fund. We have only one client, LIS, and will devote our time and attention to providing investment advice and recommendations to LIS. Currently, there is only one sub-fund. However, as more sub-funds are launched and as we become more active, conflicts of interest will arise with respect to the allocation of loan opportunities/investments for multiple sub-funds. We will amend this Brochure at that time and address the conflicts of interest raised by that change in activity, as appropriate. We have a service agreement (“Total Agreement”) with Total Impact Advisors LLC (“Total Impact”), a company that specializes in sourcing and developing private investment opportunities. Total Impact is a Private Fund Adviser. Under the Total Agreement, certain Total Impact employees will assist us in advising on financial investments and preparing investor documentation and market research. Total Impact is separately incorporated and has its own place of business, but one employee of Total Impact works from our office. Total Impact’s principal, John Simon, and his colleague work with us to develop and research loan opportunities. We treat the personnel of Total Impact, who receive Confidential Client Information and participate to our portfolio and pipeline meetings as Supervised Persons and Access Persons (as defined in our Code), supervise them and require them to comply with our written policies and procedures, including our Code of Ethics. We address the conflicts of interest with respect to Total Impact in Item 10 of this Brochure. The Fund GP may in its sole discretion give investors in Sub-Fund 1 (other than the Management Team), direct or indirect beneficial owners of BlueOrange or the Fund GP, and unaffiliated third parties an opportunity to co-invest alongside Sub-Fund 1 and the Co-Investment Partners in investments of Sub-Fund 1 on such terms (including with respect to fees and expenses) as the Fund GP may in its sole discretion agree with such parties. The Management Team, BlueOrange, the AIFM, the Fund GP and any of their affiliates are not permitted to coinvest with Sub-Fund 1. The Fund GP is not obligated to offer co-investment opportunities to the investors in Sub-Fund 1 or to allocate any such opportunities pro rata to such investors ; provided that if a co-investment opportunity is offered to investors in Sub- Fund 1, then they will be offered in priority to classes of investors with a higher capital commitment amount, and pro rata within that class. Any excess co-investment opportunity not initially taken up by investors in Sub-Fund 1 will be allocated in the discretion of the Fund GP. Investors in Sub-Fund 1 will be charged all or part of the expenses related to broken deal expenses for investments that are pursued by Sub-Fund 1 but that are not consummated, even if co-investors would have invested in such investments alongside Sub-Fund 1. The Management Team and direct or indirect beneficial owners of BlueOrange or the Fund GP will invest in Sub-Fund 1 on the same terms as unaffiliated third- party investors in Sub-Fund 1, but the Management Team will not be eligible for any co-investment opportunities and will not bear management fees and general partner reimbursements or performance fees related to their investments in Sub-Fund 1, and will not have voting rights.
How the Fund GP works
The Fund GP has the exclusive power to administer and manage the Fund and its sub-funds and to determine the investment objective, investment policy and investment restrictions applicable to each sub-fund, and the course of conduct of the management and business affairs of the Fund and the sub- funds. The Fund GP appointed LIS as AIFM; the Fund GP will act upon LIS’s investment decisions.
Funding structure
Organizational funding for us and for the Fund GP came from BlueOrange Fee HoldCo SCSp (“Fee HoldCo”), a Luxembourg special limited partnership. Fee HoldCo is owned by Blue Orange Equity TopCo SCSp (“Equity TopCo”) and financed through loans by Blue Orange Debt TopCo SCSp (“Debt TopCo”), Luxembourg special limited partnerships. Investors in Equity TopCo and Debt TopCo are U.S. and non- U.S. persons, including Mr Badré, Mr Basu and Mr Kaldany, and unaffiliated third parties. Debt TopCo and Equity TopCo will be the co-owners of BlueOrange Carry HoldCo SCSp (“Carry HoldCo”), a Luxembourg special limited partnership. The members of our Management Team are/will be investors in Carry HoldCo and Fee HoldCo through Blue Orange Carry Management SCSp and Blue Orange Fee Management SCSp (“Management Companies”), both Luxembourg special limited partnerships. Fee HoldCo and Carry HoldCo were established to receive fee income and Carried Interest (defined below) from the Fund. The members of the Management Team will receive a portion of these fees and Carried Interest via their investment in the Management Companies. BlueOrange Special Limited Partner SCSp, a subsidiary of Carry HoldCo, will receive Carried Interest from Sub-Fund 1. Because the members of the Management Team hold multiple roles across these partnerships and companies, have through them provided organizational funding to us, vote on the repayment of this organizational funding and will receive Carried Interest, there are multiple conflicts of interest with respect to our funding structure. The conflicts of interest and the means to address these conflicts are disclosed in this Brochure at Item 10. please register to get more info
