## Questions

### Who runs investment decisions at Mirror Partners?

Thomas B. Melly, the founding partner, sources, underwrites and executes every investment. He built his secondaries expertise over eight years at Kline Hill Partners, where he was the first investment-team hire and led due diligence on hundreds of small LP-stake transactions. Ryan Prescott, CFA, serves as principal.

### How does Mirror Partners source deal flow?

Melly cultivated a direct sourcing network during his tenure at Kline Hill, tapping family offices, RIAs, wealth advisors, endowments and small institutions that hold private-fund LP interests. Mirror's website positions the firm as a first-call resource for sellers evaluating a secondary sale, and its small-buyer profile makes it a natural counterparty for positions below the radar of large secondary funds.

### What is the smallest transaction Mirror Partners will execute?

Mirror targets the sub-institutional segment explicitly bypassed by large secondary platforms, though it has not published a minimum ticket size. The firm describes itself as a small buyer that can move quickly on single LP stakes and small portfolios across buyout, growth, venture, energy, infrastructure and credit funds. Sellers are encouraged to inquire even if Mirror is not the ultimate buyer, as the firm will refer them to other counterparties.

### Does Mirror Partners ever act as a broker or advisor?

No. Mirror is a principal buyer of LP interests and fund portfolios. The advisory language on its website — offering objective pricing guidance and introductions to other buyers — is a sourcing posture, not a registered advisory service. The firm steps in as the direct counterparty, providing liquidity to existing limited partners.

### How is Mirror Partners related to Kline Hill Partners?

There is no corporate or capital relationship. Tom Melly was the first investment-team hire at Kline Hill and spent eight years there specializing in small secondaries before leaving to found Mirror Partners in 2024. Mirror is an independent firm with no disclosed GP stake held by Kline Hill.
