Consolidated Notes to the Financial Statements
September 30, 2024
1. Organization
NB Private Markets Access Fund LLC (the “Fund”) was organized on July 10, 2020 as a limited liability company registered under the laws of the state of Delaware. The Fund is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Fund is offered only to investors that are both “accredited investors” as defined in Section 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and “qualified clients” as defined in Rule 205-3 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). The Fund is authorized to offer three separate classes of shares (“Shares”) designated as Institutional Class, Class A-1 and Class A-2. Institutional Class shares commenced operations on January 19, 2021; Class A-1 and Class A-2 shares commenced operations on March 1, 2022. Class A-1 shares are offered at net asset value (“NAV”) plus a maximum sales charge of 3.50%. Institutional Class and Class A-2 shares are offered at NAV. Each class represents an interest in the same assets of the Fund and classes are identical except for differences in their sales charge structures and ongoing service and distribution charges. All classes of shares have equal voting privileges except that each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its service and/or distribution plans. The Fund’s income, expenses (other than class-specific fees) and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated proportionately each month based upon the relative net assets of each share class.
The Fund’s investment objective is to seek to provide attractive, long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in an actively managed portfolio of private equity investments. The Fund’s private equity investments are expected to focus on private equity strategies including: (i) buyouts; (ii) special situations; (iii) venture and growth capital; (iv) infrastructure and real assets; and (v) private credit. The Fund’s investment exposure to these strategies is implemented via a variety of investment types that will include: (i) direct investments in the equity of private companies and/or debt securities of operating companies and other credit instruments, including investments alongside private equity funds and other private equity firms (“Direct Investments”); (ii) investments in private equity funds managed by various unaffiliated asset managers (“Portfolio Funds”) acquired in privately negotiated transactions (a) from investors in these Portfolio Funds, (b) in connection with a restructuring transaction of a Portfolio Fund(s), and/or (c) directly from a private equity fund; (iii) primary investments in newly formed Portfolio Funds; and (iv) publicly listed private equity investments and investments in business development companies. The Fund will also invest a portion of its assets in a portfolio of cash and cash equivalents, liquid fixed-income securities and other credit instruments.
The Fund is managed by Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC, an investment adviser registered under the Advisers Act that serves as the Fund’s investment adviser (“NBIA” or “Registered Investment Adviser”). The Registered Investment Adviser has engaged NB Alternatives Advisers LLC (“NBAA” or the “Sub-Adviser” and together with the Registered Investment Adviser, the “Adviser”) to assist with investment decisions. The Fund’s Board of Managers (the “Board”) has overall responsibility for the management and supervision of the operations of the Fund. Certain officers of the Registered Investment Adviser are also officers of the Fund.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The Fund meets the definition of an investment company and follows the accounting and reporting guidance as issued through Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services — Investment Companies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
A. Basis of Accounting
The Fund’s policy is to prepare its financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Consequently, income and the related assets are recognized when earned, and expenses and the related liabilities are recognized when incurred. The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars.

On September 30, 2024, the Subsidiary had net assets of $11,749,121, which equals 0.9% of the Fund’s net assets.
B. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management 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 net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and the differences could be material.
C. Valuation of Investments
The Fund computes the net asset value (“NAV”) for each class of Shares as of the close of business on the last business day of each calendar month and in connection with the Fund’s offer to purchase Shares, on each date that Shares are to be repurchased, as of the date of any distribution and at such other times as the Board shall determine.
The Board has approved valuation procedures (the “Procedures”) pursuant to which the Fund values its investments. In accordance with Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act, the Board has designated NBIA as its Valuation Designee (the “Valuation Designee”). The Valuation Designee, with assistance from NBAA, is responsible for determining fair value in good faith for the Fund’s investments without readily available market quotations, subject to oversight by the Board.
Private Equity Investments:
With respect to the Fund’s private equity investments, the Valuation Designee determines fair value at each month-end using a methodology that begins with the last reported net asset value reported by a manager or general partner of a Portfolio Fund or similar net asset value information provided by the lead or sponsoring investor for a Direct Investment, and is then adjusted to reflect: (i) financial adjustments; (ii) a “market factor” adjustment; and (iii) an “idiosyncratic event” adjustment, if applicable. The last reported value will generally follow the “practical expedient” in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 provides that, in valuing alternative investments that do not have quoted market prices but calculate NAV per share or equivalent, an investor may determine fair value by using the NAV reported to the investor by the underlying investment. In general, it is anticipated that such valuation information from these managers or from lead or sponsoring investors will generally not be available until 60 days or more after each quarter-end. Therefore, the most recently provided valuation information about these Portfolio Funds and Direct Investments for purposes of calculating the Fund’s monthly net asset value will typically be adjusted by the Valuation Designee pursuant to the Procedures to estimate the fair value, on a monthly basis, of the interests in such Portfolio Funds or Direct Investments. Financial adjustments include adjustments made to incorporate known developments since the last reported net asset value reported by a manager or general partner of a Portfolio Fund or by the lead or sponsoring investor for a Direct Investment, such as changes in currency rates, capital calls and distributions, and the nature of such cash flows, fees and expenses during the reporting period, and the value of publicly traded securities held by Portfolio Funds. In addition, the Valuation Designee has developed a proprietary “market factor’ adjustment that is applied to each of the Fund’s private equity investments in Portfolio Funds and Direct Investments. This adjustment is driven by factors that have been determined to have the most statistically significant impact to historical valuations. The Valuation Designee also continuously assesses information received from its ongoing monitoring of portfolio holdings and makes valuation changes

accordingly for idiosyncratic events when such idiosyncratic events are supported by documentation deemed reliable by the Valuation Designee. The Valuation Designee has engaged an independent third-party service provider to complete a form of positive assurance in relation to the application of this valuation methodology.
Liquid Investments:
Equity Investments: Domestic exchange traded equity securities (other than options) will be valued at their last sale prices as reported on the exchanges where those securities are primarily traded. If no sales of a security are reported on a particular day, the security will be valued based on its bid price for a security held long, or its ask price for a security held short, as reported by those exchanges. Securities traded primarily on NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). If no NOCP is available, the security will generally be valued at the latest bid price as reported on NASDAQ. In the absence of such sales or quotations, other publicly offered securities will be valued at their bid prices (or asked prices in the case of securities held short) as obtained from one or more dealers making markets for those securities.
Fixed Income Securities and Other Credit Instruments: Debt securities may be valued in accordance with the procedures described for equity securities above. In addition, debt securities may be valued by an independent pricing service approved by the Valuation Designee on the basis of market quotations. The Valuation Designee will monitor the reasonableness of valuations provided by the pricing service. Debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less will be valued on the basis of amortized cost, unless other factors indicate that amortized cost is not an accurate estimate of the security’s value. If a valuation for a security is not available from an independent pricing service or if the Valuation Designee believes in good faith that the valuation does not reflect the amount the Fund would receive on a current sale of that security, the Fund seeks to obtain quotations from brokers or dealers. If such quotations are not readily available, the Fund may use a fair value estimate made according to methods utilized by the Valuation Designee.
Illiquid Investments:
For illiquid securities for which no market quotations are available (other than interests in Portfolio Funds and certain Direct Investments, as described above) and for which independent appraisals of current value can readily be obtained, valuations will be based on such appraisals. Otherwise, valuation of illiquid securities (other than interests in Portfolio Funds and certain Direct Investments, as described above) will remain at cost except that original cost valuation will be adjusted based on a determination of such investment’s fair value.
ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). FASB ASC 820 provides three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
Level 1
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access;
Level 2
Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data;
Level 3
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that would be based on the best information available.

Consolidated Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
September 30, 2024
Most Portfolio Funds and certain Direct Investments are structured as closed-end, commitment-based private investment funds to which the Fund commits a specified amount of capital upon inception of the investment (i.e., committed capital) which is then drawn down over a specified period of the investment’s life. Such investments generally do not provide redemption options for investors and, subsequent to final closing, do not permit subscriptions by new or existing investors. Accordingly, the Fund generally holds interests for which there is no active market, although, in some situations, a transaction may occur in the “secondary market” where an investor purchases a limited partner’s existing interest and remaining commitment.
Assumptions used by the Valuation Designee due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the Fund’s results of operations and financial condition.
The following table presents the investments carried on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities by level within the valuation hierarchy as of September 30, 2024.

September 30, 2024
During the six months ended September 30, 2024, purchases of and sales from Level 3 investments were as follows:
| Purchases | | | Sales | |
| $397,426 | | | | $ | 178,682 | | |
During the six months ended September 30, 2024, changes in unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) and realized gains or (losses) from Level 3 investments were $3,656,974 and $178,682, respectively.
The Fund recognizes transfers into and out of the levels indicated above at the end of the reporting period. During the six months ended September 30, 2024, there were no transfers into or out of Level 3.
The estimated remaining life of the Fund’s investments as of September 30, 2024, is unknown at this time.
Restricted securities are securities that may be resold only upon registration under federal securities laws or in transactions exempt from such registration. In some cases, the issuer of restricted securities has agreed to register such securities for resale, at the issuer’s expense either upon demand by the Fund or in connection with another registered offering of the securities. Many restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. The restricted securities may be valued at the price provided by dealers in the secondary market or, if no market prices are available, the fair value as determined in good faith using methods approved by the Valuation Designee.
D. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash and short-term investments which are readily convertible into cash and have an original maturity of three months or less. UMB Bank N.A. serves as the Fund’s custodian. Cash and cash equivalents are subject to credit risk to the extent those balances exceed applicable Securities Investor Protection Corporations (“SIPC”) or Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limitations.
Cash on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of September 30, 2024 is $3,796,224. Short-Term Investments presented on the Schedule of Investments may include deposits in money market accounts, Treasury Bills and Treasury Notes, which are classified as Level 1 assets. As of September 30, 2024, the Fund held Short-Term Investments of $272,141,556, of which $142,364,800 is held in an overnight sweep that is deposited into a money market account, $76,691,219 of Treasury Bills and $53,085,537 of Treasury Notes.
E. Investment Gains and Losses
The Fund records distributions of cash or in-kind securities from the investments based on the information from distribution notices when distributions are received. The Fund recognizes within the Consolidated Statement of Operations its share of realized gains or (losses), the Fund’s change in net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) and the Fund’s share of net investment income or (loss) based upon information received regarding distributions from managers or the lead or sponsoring private equity investor for Direct Investments. The Fund may also recognize realized losses based upon information received from the managers or the lead or sponsoring private equity investor for Direct Investments for write-offs taken in the underlying portfolio. Changes in unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on investments within the Consolidated Statement of Operations includes the Fund’s share of interest and dividends, realized (but undistributed) and unrealized gains and losses on security transactions, and expenses of each investment.
Portfolio Funds and certain Direct Investments may make in-kind distributions to the Fund and, particularly in the event of a dissolution of a Portfolio Fund or Direct Investment, such distributions may contain securities that are not marketable. While the general policy of the Fund will be to liquidate such

investment and distribute proceeds to Shareholders, under certain circumstances when deemed appropriate by the Board, a Shareholder may receive in-kind distributions from the Fund.
F. Federal Income Taxes
The Fund has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), with a tax year end of September 30. If the Fund were to fail to meet the requirements of Subchapter M to qualify as a RIC, and if the Fund were ineligible to or otherwise unable to cure such failure, the Fund would be subject to tax on its taxable income at corporate rates, whether or not distributed to Shareholders, and all distributions out of earnings and profits would be taxable to Shareholders as ordinary income. In addition, the Fund could be required to recognize unrealized gains, pay substantial taxes and interest, and make substantial distributions before re-qualifying as a RIC under Subchapter M. The Fund intends to comply with the requirements under Subchapter M and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and gains to Shareholders and to meet certain diversification and income requirements with respect to its underlying investments. As of September 30, 2023 there is no provision for federal income or excise tax within the financial statements. Differences arise in the computation of Shareholders’ capital for financial reporting in accordance with GAAP and Shareholders’ capital for federal and state income tax reporting. These differences are primarily due to the fact that change in unrealized gains and losses are allocated for financial reporting purposes and are not allocated for federal and state income tax reporting purposes. The cost of the Underlying Investments for federal income tax purposes is based on amounts reported to the Fund on Schedule K-1 from the Underlying Investments.
The Subsidiary is a domestic limited liability company that is treated as a corporation for tax reporting and has a tax year end of September 30. The Subsidiary is subject to federal, state and local income taxes. As of September 30, 2024, the Subsidiary has recorded a total deferred tax fee payable of $1,768,343.
The Fund’s tax basis capital gains and losses will be determined as of each tax year end and presented within the Fund’s fiscal year end financial statements as of March 31, 2025. There were no distributions paid for the six months ended September 30, 2024.
The Fund files tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. In the normal course of business, the Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal, state, local and foreign jurisdictions, where applicable. As of September 30, 2024, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under the statute of limitations is from the year 2021 forward (with limited exceptions). FASB ASC 740-10, Income Taxes requires the Adviser to determine whether a tax position of the Fund is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The Adviser has reviewed the Fund’s tax positions for the current period and has concluded that no provision for taxes is required in the Fund’s financial statements for the six months ended September 30, 2024. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax liabilities as income tax expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. During the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
G. Restrictions on Transfers
Shares of the Fund are generally not transferable. No Shareholder may assign, sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any of its Shares without the prior written consent of the Board which may be granted or withheld in the Board’s sole discretion, and in compliance with applicable securities and tax laws.
H. Purchase of Shares
Shares will generally be offered for purchase as of the first business day of each month, or at such other times as determined in the discretion of the Board, based on the most recent net asset value which will be
NB Private Markets Access Fund LLC
Consolidated Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
September 30, 2024
calculated for the last business day of the preceding month. The minimum initial investment in the Fund by any investor is $50,000, and the minimum additional investment in the Fund by any Shareholder is $10,000, except for additional purchases pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan. The Board reserves the right to accept lesser amounts below these minimums.
I. Repurchase of Shares
The Fund expects to conduct repurchase offers quarterly pursuant to written tenders to Shareholders. The Registered Investment Adviser anticipates recommending to the Board that, under normal market circumstances, the Fund conduct repurchase offers of no more than 5% of the Fund’s net assets quarterly commencing on or about February 28, May 31, August 31 and November 30 of each year. A Shareholder who tenders some but not all of its Shares for repurchase will be required to maintain a minimum account balance of $10,000. Such minimum ownership requirement may be waived by the Board, in its sole discretion. A 2.00% early repurchase fee will be charged by the Fund with respect to any repurchase of Shares from a Shareholder at any time prior to the day immediately preceding the one-year anniversary of the Shareholder’s purchase of the Shares. Shares tendered for repurchase will be treated as having been repurchased on a “first in-first out” basis. An early repurchase fee payable by a Shareholder may be waived by the Fund in circumstances where the Board determines that doing so is in the best interests of the Fund. There can be no assurance that the Fund will conduct repurchase offers in any particular period and Shareholders may be unable to tender Shares for repurchase for an indefinite period of time. During the six months ended September 30, 2024, 409,923 Shares were tendered, all of which were repurchased by the Fund.
J. Fees of the Portfolio Funds’ Investments
Each Portfolio Fund investment will charge its investors (including the Fund) expenses, including asset-based management fees and performance-based fees, which are referred to as an allocation of profits. In addition to the Fund level expenses shown on the Fund’s Consolidated Statement of Operations, Shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear the fees and expenses charged by the Portfolio Funds. These fees are reflected in the valuations of the Portfolio Funds and are not reflected in the ratios to average net assets in the Fund’s Financial Highlights. The Fund has foreign investments which require the Fund to translate these investments into U.S. dollars. For foreign investments for which the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, the fair values of the investments are translated into the U.S. dollar equivalent using period end exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments.
K. Foreign Currency Translation
The Fund has foreign investments which require the Fund to translate these investments into U.S. dollars. For foreign investments for which the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, the fair values of the investments are translated into the U.S. dollar equivalent using period end exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments.
Contributed capital to and distributions received from these foreign investments are translated into the U.S. dollar equivalent using exchange rates on the date of the transaction.
Conversion gains and losses resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates during the reporting period and gains and losses realized upon settlement of foreign currency transactions are reported in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Fund does not isolate the portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates on investment transactions from the fluctuations arising from changes in the fair value of these investments.
L. Distributions to Shareholders
The Fund intends to pay dividends from net investment income at least annually. The Fund intends to distribute all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards
NB Private Markets Access Fund LLC
Consolidated Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
September 30, 2024
from prior years) at least annually. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. U.S. GAAP requires that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income. The final determination of tax characteristics of the Fund’s distributions will occur at the end of the calendar year, at which time it will be reported to the Shareholders.
M. Security Transactions and Related Income
Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums using the effective interest method. Discounts on securities purchased are amortized over the life of the respective securities. Premiums on securities purchased are amortized over the life of the respective security, unless the security has a non-contingent call feature, in which case the premium is amortized to the earliest call date. Realized gains and losses on securities and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities are reported on the identified cost basis, which is also used for income tax purposes.
N. Fund Expenses
The Fund bears all expenses incurred in the course of business on an accrual basis, including, but not limited to, the following: Advisory Fees (as defined herein); Incentive Fees (as defined herein); Distribution and Servicing Fees for Class A-1 and Class A-2 Shares; investment related expenses; legal fees; administration; auditing; tax preparation fees; custodial fees; cost of insurance; registration expenses; Independent Managers’ fees (as defined herein); and expenses of meetings of the Board.
3. Advisory Fee, Incentive Fee, Distribution and Servicing Fee, and Other Expenses
The Registered Investment Adviser provides investment advisory services to the Fund and incurs research, travel and other expenses related to the selection and monitoring of underlying investments. Further, the Registered Investment Adviser provides certain management and administrative services including providing office space and other support services, maintaining files and records, and preparing and filing various regulatory materials. In consideration for such services, the Fund pays the Registered Investment Adviser an investment advisory fee (the “Advisory Fee”) at an annual rate of 1.50%, based on the Fund’s net asset value, calculated and accrued monthly as of the last business day of each month, and payable quarterly in arrears within five (5) business days after the completion of the net asset value computation for the quarter. Certain of the Fund’s investments pay the Adviser for transaction services at the time of closing of the investment. This income to the Adviser is shared with the Fund based on the Fund’s ownership percentage of the investment through a fee offset which is presented on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Fund incurred Advisory Fees totaling $8,496,818.
At the end of each calendar quarter of the Fund, the Registered Investment Adviser will be entitled to receive an incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”) equal to 10% of the difference, if positive, between (i) the net profits of the Fund for the relevant period and (ii) the then balance, if any, of the Loss Recovery Account (as defined below). For the purposes of the Incentive Fee, the term “net profits” shall mean (i) the amount by which the net asset value of the Fund on the last day of the relevant period exceeds the net asset value of the Fund as of the commencement of the same period, including any net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments and realized income and gains or losses and expenses (including offering and organizational expenses) plus (ii) the aggregate distributions accrued during the period. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Fund incurred Incentive Fees totaling $4,095,284.
The Fund maintains a memorandum account (the “Loss Recovery Account”), which had an initial balance of zero and will be (i) increased upon the close of each calendar quarter of the Fund by the amount of the net losses of the Fund for the quarter, and (ii) decreased (but not below zero) upon the close of each
NB Private Markets Access Fund LLC
Consolidated Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
September 30, 2024
calendar quarter by the amount of the net profits of the Fund for the quarter. Net losses are defined as the amount by which the net asset value of the Fund on the last day of the relevant period is less than the net asset value of the Fund as of the commencement of the same period, including any net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments and realized income and gains or losses and expenses (including offering and organizational expenses).
In consideration for services provided under an investment sub-advisory agreement, the Registered Investment Adviser pays the Sub-Adviser a quarterly fee equal to 90% of the Advisory Fee and 100% of the Incentive Fee received from the Fund.
The Fund has entered into an expense limitation agreement with the Registered Investment Adviser (the “Expense Limitation Agreement”). The Expense Limitation Agreement has a term ending July 31, 2025 (the “Limitation Period”). The Registered Investment Adviser may extend the Limitation Period for a period of one year on an annual basis. Pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement, the Registered Investment Adviser agrees to waive and/or reimburse certain annual operating expenses (excluding the advisory fee, incentive fee, distribution and servicing fee, valuation fees, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, and extraordinary expenses, if any) (“Other Expenses”) of the Fund so they are limited to 0.30% (30bps) per annum, of the average monthly net assets (“Expense Limitation”). The Fund has agreed to repay the Registered Investment Adviser any fees waived under the Expense Limitation or any Other Expenses the Registered Investment Adviser reimburses in excess of the Expense Limitation, provided the repayments do not cause the Fund’s Other Expenses to exceed the expense limitation in place at the time the fees were waived and/or the expenses were reimbursed, or the expense limitation in place at the time the Fund repays the Registered Investment Adviser, whichever is lower. Any such repayments must be made within three years after the year in which the Registered Investment Adviser incurred the expense. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Registered Investment Adviser recouped $493,017 pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement.
As of September 30, 2024, the following amounts remain subject to recoupment by the Registered Investment Adviser by the following dates:
| March 31, 2025 | | | March 31, 2026 | | | March 31, 2027 | |
| $20,620 | | | $294,733 | | | | $ | 169,595 | | |
Class A-1 Shares and Class A-2 Shares are subject to a Distribution and Servicing Fee at an annual rate of 0.70% based on the aggregate net assets of the Fund attributable to such class payable to Neuberger Berman BD LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser (the “Distributor”). For purposes of determining the Distribution and Servicing Fee, net asset value will be calculated prior to any reduction for any fees and expenses, including, without limitation, the Distribution and Servicing Fee payable. Institutional Class Shares are not subject to a Distribution and Servicing Fee. The Registered Investment Adviser, or its affiliates, may pay additional compensation out of its own resources (i.e., not Fund assets) to certain selling agents or financial intermediaries in connection with the sale of the Shares. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Fund incurred Distribution and Servicing Fees of $420 and $1,486,096 for Class A-1 and Class A-2, respectively.
Pursuant to an Administration, Fund Accounting and Recordkeeping Agreement, the Fund retains UMB Fund Services, Inc. (“UMBFS”) a subsidiary of UMB Financial Corporation, to provide administration, accounting and transfer agency services to the Fund. In consideration for these services, the Fund will pay UMBFS tiered fees based on the average monthly net asset value of the Fund, subject to a minimum annual fee, as well as certain other fixed, per-account or transactional fees. The Fund also reimburses UMBFS for certain out-of-pocket expenses. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Fund incurred accounting and administration service fees totaling $459,163.
The Board consists of six managers (the “Managers”), of which five are not “interested persons” of the Fund as defined by Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act. Compensation to the Board is paid and
NB Private Markets Access Fund LLC
Consolidated Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
September 30, 2024
expensed by the Fund on a quarterly basis. The Independent Managers are also reimbursed for out of pocket expenses in connection with providing their services to the Fund. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, during which six Independent Managers served on the Board, the Fund incurred $107,796 in Independent Managers’ fees.
4. Description of Certain Investments
Due to the nature of the investments in Portfolio Funds and certain Direct Investments, the Fund generally cannot liquidate its positions in such investments except through distributions from the investment, which are made at the discretion of the manager or sponsor of the Direct Investments. The Fund has no right to demand repayment of its investment in such investments.
5. Capital Commitments to Investments
As of September 30, 2024, the Fund had total capital commitments of $832,668,314 with remaining unfunded commitments to the investments totaling $119,217,249 as listed below:

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding short-term investments, for the six months ended September 30, 2024 were $366,502,264 and $43,311,802, respectively. Purchases and sales of short-term investments for the six months ended September 30, 2024 were $1,398,974,399 and $1,375,940,017, respectively.
7. Indemnifications
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 the Registered Investment Adviser’s experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote.
8. Concentrations of Market, Credit, Liquidity, Industry and Currency Risk
Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations, estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and the difference could be material.
The Fund’s investments are subject, directly or indirectly, to various risk factors including market, credit, industry, currency and capital call risk. Certain investments are made internationally, which may subject the investments to additional risks resulting from political or economic conditions in such countries or regions and the possible imposition of adverse governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions affecting such countries or regions. Market risk represents the potential loss in value of financial instruments caused by movements in market variables, such as interest and foreign exchange rates and equity prices. The Fund may have a concentration of investments, as permitted by its registration statement, in a particular industry or sector. Investment performance of the sector may have a significant impact on the performance of the Fund. The Fund’s investments are also subject to the risk associated with investing in private equity securities. The investments in private equity securities are illiquid, can be subject to various restrictions on resale, and there can be no assurance that the Fund will be able to realize the value of such investments in a timely manner if at all.

Consolidated Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
September 30, 2024
The Fund believes that its liquidity and capital resources are adequate to satisfy its operational needs as well as the continuation of its investment program.
If the Fund defaults on its commitment or fails to satisfy capital calls, it will be subject to significant penalties, including the complete forfeiture of the Fund’s investment in a Portfolio Fund. This may impair the ability of the Fund to pursue its investment program, force the Fund to borrow or otherwise impair the value of the Fund’s investments (including the complete devaluation of the Fund). While the Registered Investment Adviser has taken steps to mitigate this risk, there is no guarantee that such measures will be sufficient or successful.
9. Fixed Income, Debt and Bank Loan Securities Risk
Fixed-income securities in which the Fund may invest are generally subject to the following risks, other risks can be found in the Fund’s prospectus.
Interest Rate Risk: The market value of bonds and other fixed-income securities changes in response to interest rate changes and other factors. Interest rate risk is the risk that prices of bonds and other fixed-income securities will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. Fluctuations in the market price of the Fund’s investments will not affect interest income derived from instruments already owned by the Fund, but will be reflected in the Fund’s net asset value. The Fund may lose money if short-term or long-term interest rates rise sharply in a manner not anticipated by the Adviser.
Credit Risk: Credit risk is the risk that one or more fixed-income securities in the Fund’s portfolio will decline in price or fail to pay interest or principal when due because the issuer of the security experiences a decline in its financial status. Credit risk is increased when a portfolio security is downgraded, or the perceived creditworthiness of the issuer deteriorates.
Duration and Maturity Risk: The Fund has no set policy regarding portfolio maturity or duration of the fixed-income securities it may hold. The Adviser may seek to adjust the portfolio’s duration or maturity based on its assessment of current and projected market conditions and all other factors that the Adviser deems relevant. Any decisions as to the targeted duration or maturity of any particular category of investments or of the Fund’s portfolio generally will be made based on all pertinent market factors at any given time. The Fund may incur costs in seeking to adjust the portfolio’s average duration or maturity. There can be no assurance that the Adviser’s assessment of current and projected market conditions will be correct or that any strategy to adjust the portfolio’s duration or maturity will be successful at any given time.
10. Subsequent Events
The Fund has evaluated all events subsequent to September 30, 2024, through the date these financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no subsequent events that require disclosure.

Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement Approval (Unaudited)
September 30, 2024
Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement Approval
The Board of NB Private Markets Access Fund LLC (the “Fund”) considered the approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Fund and NBIA and the Sub-Advisory Agreement between NBIA, on behalf of the Fund, and NBAA (NBIA and NBAA together, “Neuberger Berman”), at an executive session of the Independent Managers held on July 22, 2024 and a Board meeting held on July 30, 2024. The Board is comprised of a majority of Independent Managers, and, in connection with its deliberations regarding matters relating to the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement (together, the “Agreements”), the Independent Managers were represented and assisted by independent legal counsel. In considering the renewal of the Agreements, the Board considered all factors that it believed to be relevant, including those discussed below. The Board did not identify any one factor as dispositive, and each Board member may have attributed different weights to the factors considered.
In determining whether to approve each Agreement, the Board noted that it had, through its counsel, requested certain information in connection with the approval of the Agreements and discussed with management of Neuberger Berman certain matters. The Board considered all information it deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreements. The Board reviewed materials furnished by NBIA and NBAA, including information regarding NBIA and NBAA, their affiliates, personnel, operations and NBIA’s financial condition. The Board’s counsel reviewed with the Board its duties and responsibilities under state and common law and under the Investment Company Act with respect to the approval of investment advisory agreements.
The Board reviewed and considered NBIA’s financial condition, noting that both NBIA and NBAA are wholly-owned, indirect subsidiaries of Neuberger Berman Group LLC. Specifically, the Board reviewed and considered financial statements of NBIA and other financial information for NBIA. The Board determined that NBIA is solvent and sufficiently well capitalized to perform the ongoing responsibilities to the Fund and to satisfy its obligations under the Investment Company Act and the Investment Advisory Agreement.
The Board discussed and reviewed the Advisory Fee and the Incentive Fee, together with the Sub-Advisory Fee paid by NBIA to NBAA out of the Advisory Fee and Incentive Fee, and the appropriateness of such fees. The Board took into consideration the Expense Limitation Agreement entered into by the Fund and NBIA. The Board reviewed and considered how the Advisory Fee, Incentive Fee and Sub-Advisory Fee for the Fund reflects the economies of scale for the benefit of the members of the Fund, noting that as the Fund grows, economies of scale would be realized. The Board also reviewed and considered the fees or other payments to be received by NBIA, NBAA and their affiliates, including the distribution and servicing fee payable by certain share classes of the Fund to an affiliate. Specifically, the Board reviewed and considered a comparison of fees charged by investment advisers to comparable fund peers of the Fund, and fees charged by NBIA, NBAA or their affiliates with respect to other fund programs. The Board noted, in comparing fee structures of the Fund with those of non-registered funds, the additional administrative, financial reporting and legal services provided by Neuberger Berman to the Fund. The Board concluded that the Advisory Fee, Incentive Fee and Sub-Advisory Fee were reasonable.
The Board discussed and reviewed the nature, extent and quality of services rendered to the Fund by NBIA and NBAA. The Board discussed the structure and capabilities of Neuberger Berman, including technology and operational support, which support the services provided to the Fund. The Board also considered Neuberger Berman’s extensive administrative and compliance infrastructure. The Board also reviewed and discussed the experience and qualifications of key personnel of Neuberger Berman, including the qualifications of the portfolio managers to manage the Fund, and their experience managing funds of private funds, including other registered funds of private equity funds that the Board oversees, and the background and expertise of the key personnel and amount of time they are able to devote to the Fund’s affairs. There was also a discussion on performance analytics and the various indices and benchmarks used for the Fund. The Board concluded that, in light of the particular requirements of the Fund, it was satisfied with the professional qualifications and overall commitment to the Fund of the portfolio management team.

The Board discussed Neuberger Berman’s profitability and, after reviewing this information, and other information discussed at the meetings, determined that the profitability relating to the Fund was not so disproportionately large that it bore no reasonable relationship to the services rendered and also determined that, given the overall performance of the Fund and Neuberger Berman’s service levels, the current profitability of Neuberger Berman resulting from its relationship to the Fund was not excessive.
The Board also continued its review in an executive session in which independent legal counsel was present. At the conclusion of these discussions, the Board agreed that it had been furnished with sufficient information to make an informed business decision with respect to the renewal of the Agreements. Based on the information provided to the Board, and the considerations and conclusions described above, the Board, including each of the Independent Managers, determined to approve the continuance of the Agreements. In approving the continuation of the Agreements, the Board considered these conclusions and determinations and also relied on its previous knowledge, gained through meetings and other interactions with Neuberger Berman, of NBIA and NBAA and the services provided to the Fund by NBIA and NBAA. The Board also relied on information received on a routine and regular basis throughout the year relating to the operations and compliance infrastructure of the Fund and the investment management and other services provided under the Agreements, including information on the comparative and absolute investment performance of the Fund. Certain aspects of these arrangements may receive greater scrutiny in some years than in others, and the Board’s conclusions may be based, in part, on their consideration of the Fund’s arrangements, or substantially similar arrangements for other NBAA-advised funds that the Board oversees, in prior years.
