NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
As of and for the six months ended February 28, 2011
Hatteras VC Co-Investment Fund II, LLC (the “Fund”) was organized as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Delaware on November 7, 2008 and commenced operations on September 1, 2009. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. The Fund is managed by Hatteras Capital Investment Management, LLC (the “Adviser”), an investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund’s placement agent, an affiliate of the Adviser, is Hatteras Capital Distributors, LLC. The Fund had an initial closing on September 1, 2009 (“Initial Closing”) and a final closing August 31, 2010 (“Final Closing”), as determined by the Board of Managers (the “Board”) of the Fund. The Fund’s investment period (the “Investment Period”) is three years following the Initial Closing of the Fund. The Fund will continue until the date that is six years from the date of the Initial Closing, unless terminated earlier pursuant to applicable terms of the Fund’s limited liability company agreement (“LLC Agreement”). The term may be extended for two one-year periods at the discretion of the Board.
The Board has overall responsibility for the management and supervision of the business operations of the Fund on behalf of the members of the Fund (“Members”), subject to the laws of the State of Delaware and the Fund’s LLC Agreement, including authority to oversee and establish policies regarding the management, conduct and operation of the Fund’s business. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek superior risk-adjusted returns by investing in venture-backed companies. The Fund intends to achieve its investment objective by investing all or substantially all of its assets in venture-backed companies alongside of top-tier venture capital firms.
2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting and reporting policies used in preparing the financial statements.
The Fund’s accounting and reporting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted within the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Cash, if any, includes short-term interest bearing deposit accounts. At times, such deposits may be in excess of federally insured limits. The Fund has not experienced any losses in such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on such accounts.

As of and for the six months ended February 28, 2011
c. | Valuation of Portfolio Investments |
Investments for which observable market prices in active markets do not exist are reported at fair value, as determined in good faith by the Adviser. Fair value is based on the best information available and is determined by reference to information including, but not limited to, the following: projected sales, net earnings, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), balance sheets, public or private transactions, valuations for publicly-traded comparable companies, and/or other measures, and consideration of any other pertinent information including the types of securities held and restrictions on disposition. The amount determined to be fair value may incorporate the Adviser’s own assumptions (including appropriate risk adjustments for nonperformance and lack of marketability). The methods used to estimate the fair value of private companies include: (1) the market approach (whereby fair value is derived by reference to observable valuation measures for comparable companies or assets – e.g., multiplying a key performance metric of the investee company or asset, such as EBITDA, by a relevant valuation multiple observed in the range of comparable companies or transactions – adjusted by the Adviser differences between the investment and the referenced comparables and in some instances by reference to option pricing models or other similar methods), (2) the income approach (e.g., the discounted cash flow method), and (3) cost for a period of time after an acquisition (where such amount is determined by the adviser to be the best indicator of fair value). These valuation methodologies involve a significant degree of judgment. Due to the absence of readily determinable fair values and the inherent uncertainty of valuations, the estimated fair values for private companies may differ significantly from values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and the differences could be material.
The Fund classifies its assets and liabilities into three levels based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three-tier hierarchy distinguishes between (1) inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs) and (2) inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs) and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments.
The inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

The following is a reconciliation of investments in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining value:
Investments | | Balance as of September 1, 2010 | | | Net Realized Gain (Loss) | | | Change in Unrealized Appreciation/ Depreciation | | | Gross Purchases | | | Gross Sales | | | Balance as of February 28, 2011 | |

Interest income is recorded when earned. Disbursements received from investments in private companies are accounted for as a reduction of cost. Investments in short-term investments are recorded on trade date basis. Investments in private companies are recorded on subscription effective date basis, which is generally the first day of the calendar month in which the investment is effective. Realized gains and losses are determined on a specific identified cost basis.
Fund expenses that are specifically attributed to the Fund are charged to the Fund and recorded on an accrual basis.
The Fund is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes and therefore is not subject to U.S. federal income tax. For income tax purposes, the individual members will be taxed upon their distributive share of each item of the Fund’s profit and loss.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of and for the six months ended February 28, 2011
The Fund has reviewed any potential tax positions as of December 31, 2010 and has determined that it does not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties. For the period ended December 31, 2010 the Fund is open to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities and state tax authorities for a period of three years.
The Fund may make distributions to Members at least annually, or more frequently, at the Fund’s discretion, as permitted by applicable laws, rules and regulations. Amounts distributed will be intended to represent the amounts of distributions received by the Fund from underlying investments during the period since the last distribution (or from commencement of operations in the case of the first distribution). Any distributions to Members will be made pro-rata.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Fund to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in Member’s capital from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3. | MANAGEMENT FEES AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
The Adviser is responsible for providing day-to-day investment management services to the Fund, subject to the ultimate supervision of and subject to any policies established by the Board, pursuant to the terms of an investment management agreement with the Fund (the "Investment Management Agreement"). Under the Investment Management Agreement, the Adviser is responsible for developing, implementing and supervising the Fund's investment program.
In consideration for such services, the Fund pays the Adviser a quarterly investment “management fee” equal to 2.00% on an annualized basis of the net assets of the Fund as of each quarter-end. However, during the period from the Initial Closing to the Final Closing, the Fund paid the investment management fee to the Adviser monthly at a rate equal to 2.00% on an annualized basis of the net assets of the Fund. Effective March 19, 2010 the Adviser committed to waive permanently a portion of its contractual fee rate under the Investment Management Agreement as of the end of any quarter at which (or month-end during the period from the Initial Closing to the Final Closing) the cost basis of the Fund’s portfolio companies plus cash and cash equivalents, including short-term investments, is less than the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) as of such quarter-end (or month-end during the period from the Initial Closing to the Final Closing). When this occurs, the Adviser will waive the portion of its management fee that is in excess of the annual rate equal to 2.00% of the cost basis of the Fund’s portfolio companies plus cash and cash equivalents, including short-term investments. Because the Fund’s NAV, at each period end during the six months ended February 28, 2011, was lower than the cost basis of the Fund’s portfolio companies plus cash and cash equivalents, including short-term investments, the Adviser did not waive any portion of its management fee from September 1, 2010 through February 28, 2011.

As of and for the six months ended February 28, 2011
Each member of the Board who is not an “interested person” of the Fund, as defined by Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act (each an “Independent Manager”), receives an annual retainer of $5,000 from the Fund for his services on the Board and for his services as a member of the audit committee of the Fund. All Board members are reimbursed by the Fund for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in performing their duties.
4. | ACCOUNTING, ADMINISTRATION, AND CUSTODIAL AGREEMENT |
In consideration for accounting, administrative, and recordkeeping services, the Fund pays J.D. Clark & Company, a division of UMB Fund Services, Inc. (the “Administrator”) a monthly administration fee based on the month-end net asset value of the Fund. The Administrator also provides regulatory administrative services, transfer agency functions, and Member services at an additional cost. For the six months ended February 28, 2011, the total accounting and administration fee was $52,158, and is included in the Statement of Operations under Accounting and Administration Fees.
UMB Bank, n.a., an affiliate of the Administrator, serves as custodian of the Fund’s assets and provides custodial services for the Fund.
5. | INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS |
Total purchases of investments in private companies for the six months ended February 28, 2011 amounted to $1,088,137. There were no sales of investments in private companies for the six months ended February 28, 2011. The cost of investments in private companies for U.S. federal income tax purposes is adjusted for items of taxable income allocated to the Fund from the investments in private companies. The Fund relies upon actual and estimated tax information provided by the private companies in which it invests as to the amounts of taxable income allocated to the Fund as of December 31, 2010.
The Fund intends to invest substantially all of its available capital in private companies. These investments will generally be restricted securities that are subject to substantial holding periods or are not traded in public markets at all, so that the Fund may not be able to resell some of its securities holdings for extended periods.

Due to the timing of tax information received from the private companies, tax basis reporting is not available as of the balance sheet date.
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these agreements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund, and therefore cannot be established; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote.
An investment in the Fund involves significant risks, including liquidity risk, non-diversification risk and economic conditions risk, that should be carefully considered prior to investing and should only be considered by persons financially able to maintain their investment and who can afford a loss of a substantial part or all of such investment.
Liquidity risk: Transfer of the Units is subject to significant restrictions. Because of these restrictions and the absence of a public market for the Units, a Member may be unable to liquidate his, her or its investment even though his, her or its personal financial circumstances would make liquidation advisable or desirable. The Units will not be readily acceptable as collateral for loans and the Units are not permitted to be pledged as collateral for loans. Moreover, even if a Member were able to dispose of his, her or its Units, adverse tax consequences could result.
Non-diversification risk: If there is an industry in which the Fund concentrates its investments, the Fund may be subject to greater investment risk as companies engaged in similar businesses are more likely to be similarly affected by any adverse market conditions and other adverse industry-specific factors.
The financial highlights are intended to help an investor understand the Fund’s financial performance for the past period. The total return in the table represents the rate that a typical Member would be expected to have earned or lost on an investment in the Fund.
The ratios and total return amount are calculated based on the Member group taken as a whole. An individual Member’s results may vary from those shown below due to the timing of capital transactions.

Decision by the Board of Managers
Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) was replaced as Hatteras VC Co-Investment Fund II, LLC’s (the “Fund”) independent auditors effective December 3, 2010. The Fund’s Audit Committee participated in, and approved, the decision to change auditors. Deloitte’s report on the Fund’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. Since the Fund’s inception on September 1, 2009 and during the Fund’s fiscal year ended August 31, 2010 and through December 3, 2010, (i) there were no disagreements with Deloitte on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Deloitte, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports on the Fund’s financial statements for such years, and (ii) there were no “reportable events” of the kind described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
On December 3, 2010, the Fund by action of its Board of Managers upon the recommendation of the Fund’s Audit Committee engaged McGladrey & Pullen, LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Fund’s financial statements for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2011. Since the Fund’s inception on September 1, 2009 and during the Fund’s fiscal year ended August 31, 2010 and through December 3, 2010, neither the Fund nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with McGladrey & Pullen, LLP on items which (i) concerned the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Fund’s financial statements; or (ii) concerned the subject of a disagreement (as defined in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or reportable events (as described in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of said Item 304).
