Conversus Capital Releases December 31, 2007 Estimated Net Asset Value



    Conversus Capital, L.P. (Euronext Amsterdam: CCAP) ("Conversus" or
    the "Company"), a permanent capital vehicle designed to offer its
    unitholders long-term capital appreciation through a high-quality,
    seasoned portfolio of private equity interests, today reported its
    estimated portfolio net asset value (NAV) of $2,048.5 million, or
    $27.95 per unit, as of December 31, 2007. This represents an increase
    in estimated portfolio NAV per unit of approximately 11.8% since
    Conversus´ initial offering in July 2007 and is a decrease in NAV per
    unit of $0.01 since November 30, 2007. The NAV per unit as of December
    31, 2007 is net of a $0.125 per unit distribution paid on December 17,
    2007, which represents an approximate 2.0% dividend yield on an
    annualized basis. On a pro-forma basis taking into account the
    distribution, NAV per unit would have been $28.07 as of December 31,
    2007 which represents a slight increase over NAV per unit from the
    prior month.

    "I am pleased to report that in the month of December the value of
    our portfolio continued to increase on a gross basis, before
    accounting for the distribution paid during the month," commented Bob
    Long, President and CEO of Conversus Asset Management, LLC. "The
    benefits of our mature, diversified portfolio overcame the negative
    impact of public markets on our NAV. Additionally, we closed on our
    first secondary portfolio purchase and continued to execute our
    strategy of increasing allocations outside the U.S. through
    commitments to top-tier managers."

    Conversus carries its investments on its books at fair value in
    accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
    States (GAAP). Conversus uses the best information it has available to
    estimate fair value. Fair value for private equity interests is based
    on the most recent financial information provided by the fund
    managers, adjusted for subsequent transactions, such as calls or
    distributions, as well as other information judged to be reliable that
    indicates valuation changes, including realizations and other
    portfolio company events. The value of any public security known to be
    owned by the funds based on the most recent information reported to us
    by the fund managers has been marked to market as of December 31, 2007
    and a discount has been applied to such securities based on an
    estimate of the discount applied by the fund managers in calculating
    NAV.

    Conversus will issue quarterly financial reports as of March 31,
    June 30 and September 30 as well as an annual financial report as of
    December 31 of each year. These reports will include financial
    statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Conversus is required to
    consider, and will consider, all known material information in
    preparing such financial statements, including information that may
    become known subsequent to the issuance of each monthly report.
    Accordingly, amounts included in the quarterly and annual financial
    statements may differ from amounts included in the monthly NAV
    reports.

    Conversus will update its December 31, 2007 estimated NAV in its
    annual financial report to be filed in April 2008. The updated NAV
    estimate will reflect the financial information provided by the fund
    managers for the period ended December 31, to the extent available. We
    expect the revised NAV to be a more current and accurate reflection of
    the estimated portfolio value as of December 31, 2007, and the updated
    NAV could vary significantly from the amount reported today.

    Investment Activity Update

    During the month of December 2007, Conversus closed three primary
    fund commitments totaling $28.2 million and closed on its first
    secondary portfolio of funds, which was purchased at a discount to
    NAV. The new primary fund commitments that closed included:

    -- Asia Alternatives Capital Partners II, L.P.;

    -- Bruckmann, Rosser, Sherrill & Co III, L.P.; and

    -- Index Ventures Growth I, L.P.

    In early January, Conversus closed on an additional secondary fund
    portfolio, also purchased at a discount to NAV. The details of this
    purchase will be disclosed in subsequent filings, to the extent
    permitted by the relevant parties.

    Liquidity Enhancement Agreement at a total purchase price of
    approximately $4.84 million, or an average price per unit of
