Blackstone Securities Partners L.P. (the “Dealer Manager”), as the dealer manager for each of Blackstone Private Equity Strategies Fund L.P. (the “Fund”) and Blackstone Private Equity Strategies Fund (TE) L.P. (the “Feeder”), each a Delaware limited partnership (the Fund and the Feeder, collectively, the “Partnership”), invites you (the “Dealer”) to participate in the offer and sale of limited partnership units of the Partnership (“Units”) to certain of the Dealer’s qualified customers (“Customers”) subject to the following terms:

1.	*Dealer Manager Agreement*

The Dealer Manager has entered into a Dealer Manager Agreement with the Partnership dated September 29, 2023 (the “Dealer Manager Agreement”). Except as otherwise specifically stated herein, all terms used in this Selected Dealer Agreement (this “Agreement”) have the meanings provided in the Dealer Manager Agreement.

As described in the Dealer Manager Agreement, the Partnership is conducting an ongoing private placement offering (the “Offering”) in accordance with Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), which may consist of Class S Units, Class D Units and/or Class I Units. For the avoidance of doubt, any reference to Class S Units, Class D Units, and/or Class I Units shall include each of the Fund’s Class S Units, Class D Units and/or Class I Units and the Feeder’s Class_STE Units, Class_DTE Units, and/or Class_ITE Units. The differences between the classes of Units and the eligibility requirements for each class of Units are described in detail in the Memorandum (as defined herein). The Units are to be offered and sold as described in the Memorandum.

Under the terms of the Offering, as set forth in the confidential Private Placement Memorandum, dated as of September 2023 (including any supplements and amendments thereto, all financial statements, appendices, and all other documents which are a part thereof) (the “Memorandum”), the Units will be offered and sold at the offering prices per Unit set forth in the Memorandum. In connection with the Offering, the minimum initial subscription amount by any one person shall be as set forth in the Memorandum (except as otherwise accepted by the Dealer Manager pursuant to its discretion to accept lesser amounts).

By your acceptance of this Agreement, you will become one of the Dealers referred to in the Dealer Manager Agreement between the Partnership and the Dealer Manager and will be entitled and subject to the indemnification provisions contained in the Dealer Manager Agreement, including the provisions of Section 5 of the Dealer Manager Agreement wherein the Dealers severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership, the Dealer Manager and each officer and director thereof, and each person, if any, who controls the Partnership or the Dealer Manager within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Dealer hereby agrees to use its best efforts to sell the Units for cash on the terms and conditions stated in the Memorandum. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to make the Dealer an employee, agent, representative or partner of the Dealer Manager, the Partnership or any of their respective affiliates, and the Dealer is not authorized to act for the Dealer Manager, the Partnership or any of their respective affiliates, or to make any representations on their behalf except as set forth in the Memorandum and in the Authorized Sales Materials (as defined below).

The Dealer acknowledges and agrees that none of the Dealer Manager, the Partnership or any of their respective affiliates are: (a) providing any advice or recommendations to any persons who purchase and/or hold Units through Dealer pursuant to this Agreement (“Investor”); (b) providing any custody services to any person, including any customers or clients of Dealer; and/or (c) acting as broker of record for any persons who purchase and/or hold Units through Dealer pursuant to this Agreement.

2.	*Submission of Orders*

(a) Each person desiring to purchase Units in the Offering will be required to complete and execute a Subscription Agreement and to deliver to the Dealer such completed and executed Subscription Agreement together with a check or wire transfer (“Instruments of Payment”) in the amount of such person’s purchase, which must be at least the minimum purchase amount set forth in the Memorandum.

For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Affiliated Promoter” shall exclude any officer, employee, agent or representative of the Dealer or an Affiliated Promoter who gives or disseminates Promotional Statements solely in his or her capacity as such.

(xiv) It covenants that, at all times during which the Dealer or any Affiliated Promoter gives or disseminates Promotional Statements, the Dealer shall maintain, and shall cause such Affiliated Promoter to maintain, policies and procedures that (A) are reasonably designed to prevent the Dealer, such Affiliated Promoter and any of their respective personnel who give or disseminate Promotional Statements on their behalf from giving or disseminating statements that violate anti-fraud provisions under applicable securities laws and FINRA Rule 2210 and (B) apply to communications by the Dealer and such Affiliated Promoter (as applicable) to prospective Investors that are subject to such anti-fraud provisions and FINRA Rule 2210.

Any such disclosure must be made clearly and prominently, it being understood that in order for such disclosure to be made “clearly and prominently” for this purpose, the disclosure must be at least as prominent as the relevant Promotional Statement and must be included within such Promotional Statement itself or, in a case where the relevant Promotional Statement is made orally, provided at the same time as the Promotional Statement.

(xvi) It shall promptly respond to and comply with any request made by Advisor or Dealer Manager for information or documentation that would reasonably facilitate the Advisor’s compliance with its obligations under the Marketing Rule and under related recordkeeping provisions of Rule 204-2 under the Advisers Act.

(xvii) No Dealer Covered Person (as defined herein) is subject to an event described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i)-(viii) (“Rule 506(d)(1)”) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act (“Disqualifying Events”) that would either require disclosure under the provisions of Rule 506(e) of the Securities Act or result in disqualification under Rule 506(d)(1) of the Securities Act of the Partnership’s use of the Rule 506 exemption under the Securities Act for the sale of interests therein. For purposes of this section, “Dealer Covered Person” means (A) the Dealer; (B) any person who through Dealer has been or will be paid (directly or indirectly) remuneration for solicitation of purchasers in connection with such sale of securities; (C) any general partner or managing member of any person described in (A) or (B); (D) any director, executive officer or other officer participating directly or indirectly in the offering of the Units of any person described in (A), (B) or (C); and (E) any Affiliated Promoter.

In addition, the Dealer shall promptly inform the Dealer Manager in writing if (x) any of the representations contained in Schedule IV shall no longer be entirely true, accurate and complete in any respect or (y) a Dealer Covered Person is subject to a Disqualifying Event or receives any waivers granted by: (1) the SEC under Rule 506(d)(2)(ii); or (2) any court or regulatory authority under Rule 506(d)(2)(iii).

(xviii) It shall promptly notify the Partnership and the Advisor if it becomes aware of any future Disqualifying Event with respect to the Dealer or any Dealer Covered Person.

(xix) It shall promptly notify the Partnership and the Advisor if it becomes aware of any future event that would give rise to a statutory disqualification, as defined under Section 3(a)(39) of the Exchange Act.

(xx) Any Subscription Fees charged by Dealer in connection with its sale of Units will be charged in a manner consistent with the Memorandum, applicable law and FINRA rules.

(xxi) Unless prohibited under applicable law, it shall advise the Dealer Manager promptly of (a) the receipt by the Dealer of any communication specifically with respect to the offering of Units from the SEC, any state securities commissioner or any other regulatory authority in any other jurisdiction and (b) the threat or commencement of any lawsuit, proceeding or investigation to which the Dealer is a party specifically with respect to the offering of Units.

(xxii) Upon the Dealer Manager’s request, it shall provide the Dealer Manager, (A) a certificate with such customary representations as the Partnership or its counsel may reasonably request, so as to warrant that Dealer’s activities hereunder were carried out in compliance with applicable laws and the terms of this Agreement and (B) such further information and documents as are reasonably necessary or appropriate for the Partnership and/or its counsel to determine that the representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue to be true and correct. In addition, Dealer shall promptly inform the Dealer Manager in writing if any of the representations contained in the certificate shall no longer be entirely true, accurate and complete in any respect.

(xxiii) Throughout the term of this Agreement, the representations and warranties of Dealer in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects.

6.	*Right to Reject Orders or Cancel Sales*

(a) All orders, whether initial or additional, are subject to acceptance by and shall only become effective upon confirmation by the Partnership, which reserves the right to reject any order for any reason or no reason including, without limitation, orders not accompanied by an executed Subscription Agreement in good order or without the required instrument of payment in full payment for the Units. Issuance and delivery of the Units will be made only after actual receipt of payment therefor. If any check or wire is not paid upon presentment, or if the Partnership is not in actual receipt of clearinghouse funds or cash, certified or cashier’s check or the equivalent in payment for the Units, the Partnership reserves the right to cancel the sale without notice.

(b) If the Dealer has retained selling commissions in connection with an order that is subsequently rejected, canceled or rescinded for any reason, the Dealer agrees to return to the subscriber any selling commission theretofore retained by the Dealer with respect to such order within three (3) days following mailing of notice to the Dealer by the Dealer Manager stating the amount owed as a result of rescinded or rejected subscriptions. If the Dealer fails to pay any such amounts, the Dealer Manager shall have the right to offset such amounts owed against future compensation due and otherwise payable to the Dealer (it being understood and agreed that such right to offset shall not be in limitation of any other rights or remedies that the Dealer Manager may have in connection with such failure).

7.	*Memorandum and Authorized Sales Materials; Compliance with Laws*

(a) The Dealer, including any of its principals, directors, officers and employees, is not authorized or permitted to give and will not give, any information or make any representation (written or oral) concerning the Units, the Partnership, the Dealer Manager, Blackstone Private Equity Strategies Associates L.P. (the “General Partner”) and/or Blackstone Private Investments Advisors LLC (the “Advisor” and, together with the Dealer Manager, the Partnership and the General Partner, collectively, the “BXPE Parties” and each a “BXPE Party”), except as set forth in the Memorandum and any additional sales literature, which has been approved in advance in writing by the Dealer Manager (collectively, “Authorized Sales Materials”). The Dealer Manager will supply Dealer with reasonable quantities of the Memorandum, any supplements thereto and any amended Memorandum, as well as any Authorized Sales Materials (the Memorandum and the Authorized Sales Materials, as the same may be amended or supplemented, are referred to herein collectively as the “Offering Materials”), for delivery to Investors.

(b) The Dealer shall have delivered (i) to each investor to whom an offer to sell Units is made, prior to or as of the time of such offer, a copy of the Offering Materials and all supplements thereto and any amended Memorandum that have then been made available to the Dealer by the Dealer Manager and (ii) to each investor that subscribes for an order to purchase Units, as of the time the Partnership accepts such investor’s order to purchase the Units within the timeframes described in the Memorandum, a copy of the Offering Materials and all supplements thereto and any amended Memorandum that have then been made available to the Dealer by the Dealer Manager. The Dealer will not send or give any supplement to the Memorandum or any Authorized Sales Materials to an Investor unless it has previously sent or given a Memorandum and all previous supplements thereto and any amended Memorandum to such Investor or has simultaneously sent or given a Memorandum and all previous supplements thereto and any amended Memorandum with such supplement to the Memorandum or Authorized Sales Materials. The Dealer will not show or give to any Investor or prospective Investor or reproduce any material or writing which is

supplied to it by the Dealer Manager and marked “broker only,” “dealer only” or otherwise bearing a legend denoting that it is not to be used in connection with the sale of Units. The Dealer will not show or give to any Investor or prospective Investor in a particular jurisdiction any material or writing that is supplied to it by the Dealer Manager if such material bears a legend denoting that it is not to be used in connection with the sale of Units in such jurisdiction. The Dealer will not use in connection with the offer or sale of Units any material or writing which relates to another company supplied to it by the Partnership or the Dealer Manager bearing a legend which states that such material may not be used in connection with the offer or sale of any securities other than the company to which it relates. The Dealer will not use in connection with the offer or sale of Units any materials or writings which have not been previously approved by the Dealer Manager, the Advisor or the Partnership in writing. The Dealer shall, if the Dealer Manager so requests, furnish a copy of any revised Memorandum to each person to whom it has furnished a copy of any previous Memorandum.

(c) On becoming a Dealer, and in offering and selling Units, the Dealer agrees to comply with all the applicable requirements imposed upon it under (i) the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated under both such acts, (ii) all applicable state securities laws and regulations as from time to time in effect, (iii) any other state, federal, foreign and other laws and regulations applicable to the Offering, the sale of Units or the activities of the Dealer pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation the privacy standards and requirements of state and federal laws, including the Xxxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Act of 1999, 15 U.S.C. §§ 6801 et seq., as may be amended from time to time (“GLBA”), and the laws governing money laundering abatement and anti-terrorist financing efforts, including the applicable rules of the SEC and FINRA, the Bank Secrecy Act, as amended, USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, as amended (the “USA Patriot Act”), and regulations administered by the Office of Foreign Asset Control at the Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”), and (iv) this Agreement and the Memorandum as amended and supplemented. Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement or the payment of any amount to the Dealer, the Dealer agrees to pay the Dealer’s proportionate share of any claim, demand or liability asserted against the Dealer and the other Dealers on the basis that such Dealers or any of them constitute an association, unincorporated business or other separate entity, including in each case such Dealer’s proportionate share of any expenses incurred in defending against any such claim, demand or liability.

In consideration of the foregoing, the Dealer Manager xxxxxx agrees that it will not reject a subscription on account of an electronic signature if such signature was obtained in the manner set forth in this Section 7.

8.	*License and Association Membership*

The Dealer’s acceptance of this Agreement constitutes a representation to the Partnership and the Dealer Manager that the Dealer is a properly registered or licensed broker-dealer, duly authorized to sell Units under federal and state securities laws and regulations, and foreign laws (including the laws of the jurisdictions listed on Schedule III), if applicable, and in all states or jurisdictions where it offers or sells Units, and a member in good standing of FINRA and that it has obtained all necessary approvals, licenses and permits required for it to enter into this Agreement and engage in the offer and sale of securities of the

type represented by the Units and shall maintain such approvals, licenses and permits for so long as this Agreement is in effect, and it further represents and warrants that it will notify the Dealer Manager immediately at such time, if any, as it ceases to hold any such necessary approval, license or permit. This Agreement shall automatically terminate if the Dealer ceases to be a member in good standing of FINRA. The Dealer agrees to notify the Dealer Manager immediately if the Dealer ceases to be a member in good standing of FINRA. The Dealer will abide by the Rules of FINRA, including FINRA Rules 2040, 2111 and 2121.

9.	*Limitation of Offer; Suitability*

(a) The Dealer will offer Units (both at the time of an initial subscription and at the time of any additional subscription, including initial enrollments and increased participations in the DRIP) only to persons who meet the financial qualifications and suitability standards set forth in the Memorandum, this Agreement or in any suitability letter or memorandum sent to it by the Partnership or the Dealer Manager and will only make offers to persons in the jurisdictions in which it is advised in writing by the Dealer Manager that the Units are qualified for sale under the respective securities laws of such jurisdiction or that such qualification is not required and in which the Dealer has all required licenses and registrations to offer Units in such jurisdictions (including the jurisdictions listed on Schedule III). In offering Units, the Dealer will comply with the provisions of the Rules set forth in the FINRA Manual, Regulation Best Interest, as well as all other applicable rules and regulations relating to suitability of investors. Nothing contained in this section shall be construed to relieve the Dealer of its suitability obligations under Regulation Best Interest or FINRA Rule 2111. The Dealer will sell Class S Units, Class D Units and Class I Units only to the extent approved by the Dealer Manager as set forth on Schedule I to this Agreement, and to the extent approved to sell Class S Units, Class D Units and Class I Units pursuant to this Agreement, sell such units only to those persons who are eligible to purchase Class S Units, Class D Units and Class I Units as described in the Memorandum. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to impose upon any BXPE Party the responsibility of assuring that prospective Investors meet the suitability standards in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Memorandum. The Dealer shall not purchase any Units for a discretionary account without obtaining the prior written approval of the Dealer’s Customer and such Customer’s completed and executed Subscription Agreement.

(b) The Dealer further represents, warrants and covenants that neither the Dealer, nor any person associated with the Dealer, shall offer or sell Units in any jurisdiction except to investors who satisfy the investor suitability standards and minimum investment requirements under the most restrictive of the following: (i) applicable provisions described in the Memorandum; (ii) applicable laws of the jurisdiction of which such investor is a resident; (iii) applicable provisions of Regulation Best Interest; and (iv) applicable FINRA rules. The Dealer Manager agrees to ensure that, in recommending the purchase, sale or exchange of Units to an investor, the Dealer, or a person associated with the Dealer, shall have reasonable grounds to believe, on the basis of information obtained from the investor (and thereafter maintained in the manner and for the period required by the SEC, any state securities commission, FINRA or the Partnership) concerning his or her age, investment objectives, other investments, financial situation and needs and any other information known to the Dealer, or person associated with the Dealer, that the investor (x) the investor can reasonably benefit from an investment in the Units based on the investor’s overall investment objectives and portfolio structure, (y) is able to bear the economic risk of the investment based on the investor’s overall financial situation and (z) has an apparent understanding of (A) the fundamental risks of the investment, (B) the risk that the investor may lose his or her entire investment in the Units, (C) the lack of liquidity of the Units, (D) the background and qualifications of the Advisor or the persons responsible for directing and managing the Partnership and (E) the tax consequences of an investment in the Units. In the case of sales to fiduciary accounts, the suitability standards must be met by the person who directly or indirectly supplied the funds for the purchase of the Units or by the beneficiary of such fiduciary account. The Dealer further represents, warrants and covenants that the Dealer, or a person associated with the

Dealer, will make every reasonable effort to determine the appropriateness of an investment in Units of each proposed investor, in accordance with the foregoing standards, by reviewing documents and records which, in accordance with applicable law, contain the basis upon which the determination as to the appropriateness of such investment was reached as to each purchaser of Units pursuant to a subscription solicited by the Dealer.

(c) The Dealer will comply with the record-keeping requirements imposed by (i) federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder and (ii) the applicable rules of FINRA, including the requirement to maintain records (the “Suitability Records”) of the information used to determine that an investment in Units is suitable and appropriate for each subscriber for a period of six years from the date of the sale of the Units. The Dealer will, upon request from a regulatory authority to the Dealer or as required under applicable law, furnish such regulatory authority with copies of records of purchase and sales of Units, including Suitability Records.

(d) The Units offered by the Dealer shall be offered only to Customers who are both “accredited investors” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and “qualified purchasers” as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(51) of the Investment Company Act. Neither the Dealer nor any person acting on its behalf, has (i) offered or sold or shall offer or sell the Units by any form of general solicitation or general advertising, including, without limitation, the methods described in Rule 502(c) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, or (ii) taken or will take any action, directly or indirectly, so as to cause the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to fail to qualify for the exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Dealer shall offer the Units in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws, the securities laws of any state and the securities laws of any other jurisdiction in which it markets or solicits purchasers for such Units. The Dealer shall not knowingly take any action that would place any BXPE Party or any affiliate thereof in violation of any U.S. federal or state law. The Dealer shall not refer to any BXPE Party or solicit any Customer through the use of any general advertising, publicity, general solicitation, or other similar means.

Disclosure Review; Confidentiality of Information

(a) The Dealer shall have reasonable grounds to believe, based on the information made available to it through the Memorandum or other materials, that all material facts are adequately and accurately disclosed in the Memorandum and provide a basis for evaluating the Units. In making this determination, the Dealer shall evaluate, at a minimum, items of compensation, physical properties, tax aspects, financial stability and experience of the General Partner and the Advisor, conflicts of interest and risk factors, and appraisals and other pertinent reports. If the Dealer relies upon the results of any inquiry conducted by another member or members of FINRA, the Dealer shall have reasonable grounds to believe that such inquiry was conducted with due care, that the member or members conducting or directing the inquiry consented to the disclosure of the results of the inquiry and that the person who participated in or conducted the inquiry is not the Dealer Manager, the General Partner or an affiliate of the General Partner.

(b) It is anticipated that (i) the Dealer and its officers, directors, managers, employees, owners, members, partners, home office diligence personnel or other agents of the Dealer that are conducting a due diligence inquiry on behalf of the Dealer and (ii) persons or committees, as the case may be, responsible for determining whether the Dealer will participate in the Offering ((i) and (ii) are collectively, the “Diligence Representatives”) either have previously or will in the future have access to certain Confidential Information (defined below) pertaining to the BXPE Parties or their respective affiliates in connection with such Diligence Representatives’ diligence review. Such Diligence Representatives are bound by the terms of this Section 10, and the Dealer will be responsible for any breach by such persons of these confidentiality obligations. For purposes hereof, “Confidential Information” shall mean and include: (A) trade secrets concerning the business and affairs of the BXPE Parties or their respective affiliates; (B) confidential data,

know-how, current and planned research and development, current and planned methods and processes, marketing lists or strategies, slide presentations, business plans, however documented, belonging to the BXPE Parties or their respective affiliates; (C) information concerning the business and affairs of the BXPE Parties or their respective affiliates (including, without limitation, historical financial statements, financial projections and budgets, investment-related information, models, budgets, plans, and market studies, however documented); (D) any information marked or designated “Confidential—For Due Diligence Purposes Only”; and (E) any notes, analyses, compilations, studies, summaries or other material containing or based, in whole or in part, on any information included in the foregoing. The Dealer shall keep, and cause its Diligence Representatives to keep, all such Confidential Information strictly confidential and not use, distribute or copy the same except in connection with the Dealer’s due diligence inquiry. The Dealer shall not disclose, and will cause its Diligence Representatives not to disclose, such Confidential Information to the public, or to the Dealer’s sales staff, financial advisors, or any person involved in selling efforts related to the Offering or to any other third party and will not use the Confidential Information in any manner in the offer and sale of the Units. The Dealer shall take all reasonable precautions necessary to preserve the confidentiality of such Confidential Information, including, but not limited to (x) limiting access to such information to persons who have a need to know such information only for the purpose of the Dealer’s due diligence inquiry and (y) informing each recipient of such Confidential Information of the Dealer’s confidentiality obligation. The Dealer acknowledges that it or its Diligence Representatives may previously have received Confidential Information in connection with preliminary due diligence on the Partnership, and agrees that the foregoing restrictions shall apply to any such previously received Confidential Information. The Dealer acknowledges that it or its Diligence Representatives may in the future receive Confidential Information, either in individual or collective meetings or telephone calls with the Partnership, and agrees that the foregoing restrictions shall apply to any Confidential Information received in the future through any source or medium. The Dealer acknowledges the restrictions and limitations of Regulation F-D promulgated by the SEC and agrees that the foregoing restrictions are necessary and appropriate in order for the Partnership to comply therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information may be disclosed (1) if approved in writing for disclosure by the Partnership or the Dealer Manager, (2) pursuant to a subpoena or as required by law, or (3) as required by regulation, rule, order or request of any governing or self-regulatory organization (including the SEC or FINRA), provided, that the Dealer shall notify the Dealer Manager in advance if practicable under the circumstances of any attempt to obtain Confidential Information pursuant to provisions (2) and (3) of this sentence.

11.

Dealer’s Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Rules and Regulations

(a) The Dealer hereby represents that it has complied and will comply with Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act, and the implementing rules and regulations promulgated thereunder in connection with broker/dealers’ anti-money laundering obligations (the “AML Rules and Regulations”). The Dealer hereby represents that it has adopted and implemented, and will maintain a written anti-money laundering compliance program (“AML Program”) including, without limitation, anti-money laundering policies and procedures relating to customer identification in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including federal and state securities laws, applicable rules of FINRA, and the USA Patriot Act and the implementing rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The Dealer further represents that its AML Program, at a minimum, (1) designates a compliance officer to administer and oversee the AML Program, (2) provides ongoing employee training, (3) includes an independent audit function to test the effectiveness of the AML Program, (4) establishes internal policies, procedures, and controls that are consistent with Dealer’s obligations under this Agreement, (5) includes a customer identification program consistent with the rules under section 326 of the USA Patriot Act, (6) provides for the filing of all necessary anti-money laundering reports including, but not limited to, currency transaction reports and suspicious activity reports, (7) provides for compliance with applicable economic sanctions issued by the U.S., including without limitation those administered and enforced by OFAC, the U.K., including without limitation those administered and enforced by Her Majesty’s Treasury, the E.U., E.U. member states and the U.N.

(collectively “Economic Sanctions”), including, without limitation, screening all new and existing Customers and Customer’s beneficial owners, if any, against the list of specially designated nationals and blocked persons, and any other government list that is or becomes required under the Economic Sanctions, and (8) prescribes that appropriate regulators be permitted to examine the Dealer’s AML books and records and that the Dealer will promptly fulfill appropriate requests by such regulators for information about dealer’s AML Program. Customer identification information will be retained for a period of not less than five years, following the termination of the customer’s relationship with the Dealer. The Dealer further has policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network’s Customer Due Diligence Rule, including identifying and verifying the identity of beneficial owners of legal entity customers, and the Dealer will submit to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network any required suspicious activity reports about such activity and further will disclose such activity to applicable federal and state law enforcement when required by law. The Dealer has implemented policies, procedures and internal controls reasonably designed to identify higher risk clients, and to perform enhanced due diligence on such clients, including politically exposed persons. In accordance with such implemented policies, procedures and internal controls, applicable laws and regulations and its AML Program, the Dealer shall monitor account activity to identify patterns of unusual size or volume, geographic factors and any other “red flags” described in the USA Patriot Act as potential signals of money laundering or terrorist financing.

(b) Upon request by the Dealer Manager at any time, the Dealer shall furnish (i) a copy of its AML Program to the Dealer Manager for review, and (ii) a copy of the findings and any remedial actions taken in connection with the Dealer’s most recent independent testing of its AML Program. The Dealer agrees to notify the Dealer Manager immediately if the Dealer is subject to a FINRA disclosure event or fine from FINRA related to its AML Program.

(c) The Dealer hereby acknowledges and agrees that it (and not any BXPE Party or the Partnership’s transfer agent or other service provider) is responsible for reviewing and monitoring Customers and complying with AML Rules and Regulations, including customer identification program requirements, with respect to Customers in connection with this Agreement.

(d) The Dealer does not know or have any reason to suspect that any of the beneficial owners, controllers, authorized persons, or other entities associated with any Customer investing in the Partnership (including any beneficial owner(s) thereof): (i) appears on OFAC’s Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List; (ii) is named on any list of sanctioned entities or individuals pursuant to E.U. and/or U.K. regulations (as the latter are extended by statutory instrument to the Cayman Islands by Statutory Instrument); (iii) is operationally based or domiciled in a country or territory in relation to which sanctions imposed by the United Nations, OFAC, the E.U., the U.S. and/or the U.K. apply; or (iv) is otherwise subject to sanctions imposed by, or is a party with which the Partnership is prohibited to deal with under the laws of, the United Nations, OFAC, the E.U. or the U.K., which may be amended from time to time (collectively, a “Sanctions Subject”).

(e) The Dealer does not know or have any reason to suspect that the monies used to fund any Customer’s investment in the Partnership is derived, directly or indirectly, from, invested for the benefit of, or related in any way to: (i) any criminal, terrorist or other illegal activities, including but not limited to, money laundering activities, whether under U.S. law or otherwise; and/or (ii) a Sanctions Subject (or are made on behalf of, or are controlled by, such persons).

(f) The Dealer covenants that, should any Customer and/or beneficial owner(s) thereof become at any time during their investment in the Partnership a Sanctions Subject, the Dealer shall immediately notify the General Partner of such, which shall include the identity of such Sanctions Subject. The Dealer agrees to promptly provide the Partnership, the Dealer Manager, the General Partner or their respective delegate(s) with such additional information as may be requested by the Partnership, the General

Partner, the Dealer Manager or its delegate to enable the Partnership to satisfy its responsibilities under applicable law. The Dealer agrees and acknowledges that, among other remedial measures, (i) the Partnership may be obligated to “freeze the account” with respect to the portion of an investment by any Customer, either by restricting participation by the Customer and/or segregating the assets of the Customer in order to comply with governmental regulations and/or if the Dealer Manager determines in its good faith that such action is in the best interests of the Customer; and (ii) the Partnership may be required to report such action or confidential information relating to the Customer (including, without limitation, disclosing the Customer’s identity) to regulatory authorities.

(g) The Dealer shall notify the Partnership promptly in writing should the Dealer become aware of any material change in the information set forth in this Section 11.

12.

Privacy

(a) The Dealer will abide by and comply in all respects with (i) the privacy standards and requirements of the GLBA and applicable regulations promulgated thereunder, (ii) the privacy standards and requirements of any other applicable federal or state law, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”) and (iii) its own internal privacy policies and procedures, each as may be amended from time to time.

(b) The parties hereto acknowledge that from time to time, the Dealer may share with the Partnership and the Partnership may share with Dealer nonpublic personal information (as defined under the GLBA) of customers of the Dealer. This nonpublic personal information may include, but is not limited to a customer’s name, address, telephone number, social security number, account information and personal financial information. The Dealer shall only be granted access to such nonpublic personal information of each of its customers that pertains to the period or periods during which Dealer served as the broker-dealer of record for such customer’s account. None of the Dealer or the BXPE Parties will disclose nonpublic personal information of any customers who have opted out of such disclosures, except (i) to service providers (when necessary and as permitted under the GLBA), (ii) to carry out the purposes for which one party discloses such nonpublic personal information to another party under this Agreement (when necessary and as permitted under the GLBA) or (iii) as otherwise required by applicable law. Any nonpublic personal information that one party receives from another party shall be subject to the limitations on usage described in this Section 12. Except as expressly permitted under the FCRA, the Dealer agrees that it shall not disclose any information that would be considered a “consumer report” under the FCRA.

(c) The Dealer shall be responsible for determining which customers have opted out of the disclosure of nonpublic personal information by periodically reviewing and, if necessary, retrieving a list of such customers (the “List”) to identify customers that have exercised their opt-out rights. In the event the Dealer or any BXPE Party expects to use or disclose nonpublic personal information of any customer for purposes other than as set forth in this Section 12, it must first consult the List to determine whether the affected customer has exercised his or her opt-out rights. The use or disclosure of any nonpublic personal information of any customer that is identified on the List as having opted out of such disclosures, except as set forth in this Section 12, shall be prohibited.

(d) The Dealer shall implement commercially reasonable measures in compliance with industry best practices designed (i) to assure the security and confidentiality of nonpublic personal information of all customers; (ii) to protect such information against any anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of such information; (iii) to protect against unauthorized access to, or use of, such information that could result in material harm to any customer; (iv) to protect against unauthorized disclosure of such information to unaffiliated third parties; and (v) to otherwise ensure its compliance with all applicable privacy standards and requirements of federal or state law (including, but not limited to, the

GLBA), and any other applicable legal or regulatory requirements. The Dealer will cause all its agents, representatives, affiliates, subcontractors, or any other party to whom the Dealer provides access or discloses nonpublic personal information of customers, to implement appropriate measures designed to meet the objectives set forth in this Section 12.

13.

Sub-Agents

(a) The Dealer shall not engage or retain, or assign or delegate its rights or obligations hereunder to, any affiliated or unaffiliated sub-agent to assist the Dealer the offer, sale, marketing or promotion of Units without the prior written approval of the Dealer Manager (“Sub-Agents”).

(b) The Dealer undertakes to cause each approved Sub-Agent to enter into an agreement with the Dealer, which agreement shall include all of the undertakings, agreements, representations, warranties and covenants made by the Dealer to the BXPE Parties hereunder mutatis mutandis. Such agreement shall also prohibit further delegation unless the prior written consent of the Dealer Manager is given. The Dealer shall review the services provided by each of its Sub-Agents (if any) on an ongoing basis and make each Sub-Agent (if any) aware of the requirement to review the services provided by each Sub-Agent’s delegate (if any) on an ongoing basis.

(c) Upon the request of the Dealer Manager, the Dealer shall provide the Dealer Manager with a copy of any such Sub-Agent agreement and/or a certificate from the Dealer to the effect that the Dealer is in compliance with Section 13(b) with respect to such Sub-Agent. The Dealer undertakes to terminate with immediate effect the appointment of any Sub-Agent upon the instruction of the Dealer Manager. The Dealer shall remain liable for any act (or failure to act) of any of its Sub-Agents that would be a breach of the terms of this Agreement had it been committed or taken by the Dealer.

(d) The Dealer hereby covenants, represents and warrants to the Dealer Manager that no portion of the fees received by the Dealer in connection with its services hereunder shall be remitted or otherwise paid to any third party (including any finder or lobbyist) by the Dealer, other than a Sub-Agent as provided in the sentence above, without the prior written consent of the Dealer Manager, which may be given or withheld in the Dealer Manager’s sole discretion.

14.

Dealer’s Undertaking to Not Facilitate a Secondary Market in the Units

The Dealer acknowledges that there is no public trading market for the Units and that there are limits on the ownership, transferability and repurchase of the Units, which significantly limit the liquidity of an investment in the Units. The Dealer also acknowledges that the Repurchase Program provides only a limited opportunity for investors to have their Units purchased by the Partnership and that the General Partner may, in its sole discretion, amend, suspend, or terminate the Repurchase Program at any time in accordance with the terms of the Repurchase Program. The Dealer hereby agrees that so long as the Partnership is offering Units under Regulation D under the Securities Act, the Dealer will not facilitate any transfers except in compliance with applicable law or engage in any action or transaction that would facilitate or otherwise create the appearance of a secondary market in the Units without the prior written approval of the Dealer Manager.

15.

Arbitration

Any dispute, controversy or claim arising between the parties relating to this Agreement (whether such dispute arises under any federal, state or local statute or regulation, or at common law), shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered in accordance with the then current commercial arbitration rules of FINRA in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including the governing law

provisions of this Agreement and pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1 – 16). The parties will request that the arbitrator or arbitration panel (“Arbitrator”) issue written findings of fact and conclusions of law. The Arbitrator shall not be empowered to make any award or render any judgment for punitive damages, and the Arbitrator shall be required to follow applicable law in construing this Agreement, making awards, and rendering judgments. The decision of the arbitration panel shall be final and binding, and judgment upon any arbitration award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction. All arbitration hearings will be held at the New York City FINRA District Office or at another mutually agreed upon site. The parties may agree on a single arbitrator, or, if the parties cannot so agree, each party will have the right to choose one arbitrator, and the selected arbitrators will choose a third arbitrator. Each arbitrator must have experience and education that qualify him or her to competently address the specific issues to be designated for arbitration. Notwithstanding the preceding, no party will be prevented from immediately seeking provisional remedies in courts of competent jurisdiction, including but not limited to, temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions, but such remedies will not be sought as a means to avoid or stay arbitration.

16.

Termination

(a) This Agreement will be effective as of its date of acceptance by the Dealer Manager and will remain in full force and effect for so long as this Agreement is not terminated by either party hereto pursuant to the terms hereof.

(b) This Agreement and the parties’ obligations hereunder may be terminated by either the Dealer Manager or the Dealer for any reason or no reason upon giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to the other party; provided, however, that in the event either party hereto does not perform any obligation or materially breaches any covenant under this Agreement and does not perform such obligation or cure such breach (only to the extent such breach is curable) within five (5) business days from receipt of notice of such breach from the other party, or any representation and warranty hereunder on the part of a party hereto is incomplete or inaccurate in any respect (such event is referred to herein as a “Breach” and such party is referred to as the “Breaching Party”), this Agreement and the other party’s obligations hereunder may be immediately terminated by such other party by written notice thereof to the Breaching Party.

(c) Upon becoming aware of a Disqualifying Event with respect to a Dealer Covered Person (unless a waiver has been obtained and/or the relevant Dealer Covered Person has been timely terminated or no longer performs a role with respect to Dealer that would cause such person to be a Dealer Covered Person for purposes of Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act), the Dealer Manager may, in its sole discretion, terminate this Agreement (such termination, a “Disqualifying Event Termination”), which Disqualifying Event Termination shall be effective as of the date of the occurrence of the Disqualifying Event. Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, the obligations of the parties pursuant to the indemnity, confidentiality and choice of law and jurisdiction provisions of this Agreement shall survive any termination hereof and remain operative and in full force and effect. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a Disqualifying Event Termination, the BXPE Parties shall cease to be obligated to pay the Dealer any fees in connection with any subscriptions made on or after the occurrence of such Disqualifying Event.

(d) This Agreement will terminate automatically if the Dealer Manager or the Dealer ceases to be a member of FINRA in good standing or is subject to a FINRA suspension or if the Dealer Manager’s or the Dealer’s registration or license under the Exchange Act or any state securities laws or regulations is terminated or suspended.

Each party agrees to notify the other party immediately if any of these events, as applicable, occurs.

Further, the Dealer Manager reserves the right to withdraw its consent to the use of any BXPE Party’s or any affiliate of any BXPE Party’s name at any time and to request to review any materials generated by the Dealer that use any BXPE Party’s or any affiliate of any BXPE Party’s name or mark.

Therefore, the Dealer Manager shall be entitled to seek an injunction and/or specific performance for any actual or threatened violation or breach by the Dealer of this Agreement, without the posting of any bond, and such other relief as may be available at law or equity, including the right to recover all losses or damages suffered by the BXPE Parties resulting from any such breach or threatened breach.

(c) If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any applicable law, then such provision will be deemed modified to the extent necessary to render it legal, valid and enforceable, and if no such modification will render it legal, valid and enforceable, then this Agreement will be construed as if not containing such provision, and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto will be construed and enforced accordingly.

(d) This Agreement has been jointly drafted by the parties hereto, after negotiations and consultations with their respective counsel. This Agreement will not be construed more strictly against one or more parties than against any other party.

(e) This Agreement (including the Schedules hereto) represents the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto regarding the offer and sale of Units and supersedes any and all prior negotiations, representations and agreements, whether written or oral related thereto.

(f) This Agreement may be amended at any time by the Dealer Manager by written notice to the Dealer, and any such amendment shall be deemed accepted by the Dealer upon placement of an order for sale of Units by such Dealer’s Customer after the Dealer has received such notice.

SCHEDULE I

ADDENDUM TO

SELECTED DEALER AGREEMENT WITH

BLACKSTONE SECURITIES PARTNERS L.P.

Name of Dealer: _________________________________

The following reflects the subscription fee, placement fee and unitholder servicing fee arrangements as agreed upon between Blackstone Securities Partners L.P. (the “Dealer Manager”) and Dealer, effective as of the effective date of the Selected Dealer Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Dealer Manager and Dealer in connection with the offering of Units of Blackstone Private Equity Strategies Fund L.P. (the “Fund”) and Blackstone Private Equity Strategies Fund (TE) L.P. (the “Feeder” and together with the Fund, the “Partnership”). For the avoidance of doubt, any reference to Class S Units, Class D Units, and/or Class I Units shall include each of the Fund’s Class S Units, Class D Units and/or Class I Units and the Feeder’s Class_STE Units, Class_DTE Units, and/or Class_ITE Units, unless otherwise indicated herein.

Subscription Fees.

Dealer may charge upfront selling commissions, placement fees, subscription fees or similar fees (“Subscription Fee”), on purchases and sales of Units on such Dealer’s brokerage platform, as set forth in “Unit Class Election” below, to the extent the Memorandum discloses that such fees may be charged for the relevant class of Units. Any Subscription Fee, including upfront placement fees or selling commissions, charged by Dealer in connection with its sale of Units will be charged in a manner consistent with the Memorandum and applicable law and FINRA rules. Purchases and sales of such Units may only be executed as purchases or repurchases between the Customer and the Partnership. Dealer shall not execute trades of Units between Customers. For the avoidance of doubt, subscription funds may be transmitted to the Partnership net of any Subscription Fees.

Terms and Conditions of the Servicing Fees.

The payment of the unitholder servicing fee (“Servicing Fees”) to Dealer is subject to terms and conditions set forth herein and the Memorandum as may be amended or supplemented from time to time. If Dealer elects to sell Class S Units and/or Class D Units, eligibility to receive the Servicing Fee with respect to the Class S Units and/or Class D Units, as applicable, sold by the Dealer is conditioned upon Dealer acting as broker-dealer of record with respect to such Units and complying with the requirements set forth below, including providing unitholder and account maintenance services with respect to such Units.

(i) the existence of an effective Selected Dealer Agreement or ongoing Servicing Agreement (as defined below) between the Dealer Manager and the Dealer, and

(ii) the provision of the following services with respect to the Class S Units and/or Class D Units, as applicable, by the Dealer:

assistance with recordkeeping, in accordance with Dealer’s then existing requirements, including maintaining records for and on behalf of Dealer’s Customers reflecting transactions and balances of Units owned,

answering investor inquiries regarding the Partnership, including distribution payments and reinvestments,

helping investors understand their investments upon their request, and

tender offers. For the avoidance of doubt, Dealer’s Customers shall submit tender offers directly to the Partnership or its agent.

For the avoidance of doubt, Dealer is not to be considered the official books and records keeper of the Partnership. In connection with this provision, the Dealer agrees to reasonably cooperate to provide certification to the Partnership, the Dealer Manager, and its agents (including its auditors) confirming the provision of services to each particular class of unitholders upon reasonable request.

Dealer hereby represents by its acceptance of each payment of the Servicing Fee that it complies with each of the above requirements and is providing the above-described services.

In the event of termination of the Agreement, the Dealer Manager and Dealer shall promptly enter into a Servicing Agreement on reasonable and customary terms mutually agreed upon by Dealer and the Dealer Manager to provide for the continuation of these services by Dealer and the continuation of the payment by the Dealer Manager of the Servicing Fee with respect to the units for which Dealer continues to act as broker of record.

Subject to the conditions described herein, the Dealer Manager will reallocate to Dealer the Servicing Fee in an amount described below, on Class S Units or Class D Units, as applicable, sold by Dealer. To the extent payable, the Servicing Fee will be payable monthly in arrears as provided in the Memorandum. All determinations regarding the Dealer’s compliance with the listed conditions in this Schedule I will be made by the Dealer Manager in good faith in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the terms of the Memorandum, at such time as the Dealer is no longer the broker-dealer of record with respect to such Class S or Class D Units or the Dealer no longer satisfies any or all of the conditions set forth above, then Dealer’s entitlement to the Servicing Fees related to such Class S and/or Class D Units, as applicable, shall cease in, and Dealer shall not receive the Servicing Fee for, that month or any portion thereof (i.e., Servicing Fees are payable with respect to an entire month without any proration). Dealer-dealer transfers will be made effective as of the last business day of a month.

Thereafter, such Servicing Fees may be reallocated to the then-current broker-dealer of record of the Class S and/or Class D Units, as applicable, if any such broker-dealer of record has been designated (the “Servicing Dealer”), to the extent such Servicing Dealer has entered into a Selected Dealer Agreement or similar agreement with the Dealer Manager (“Servicing Agreement”) and such Selected Dealer Agreement or Servicing Agreement with the Servicing Dealer provides for such reallocation. In this regard, all determinations will be made by the Dealer Manager in good faith in its sole discretion. The Dealer is not entitled to any Servicing Fee with respect to Class I Units.

General

Servicing Fees due to the Dealer pursuant to this Agreement will be paid to Dealer within 30 days after receipt by the Dealer Manager. Dealer, in its sole discretion, may authorize Dealer Manager to deposit Servicing Fees or other payments due to it pursuant to this Agreement directly to its bank account. If Dealer so elects, the Dealer shall provide such deposit authorization and instructions in Schedule II to this Agreement.

The parties hereby agree that the foregoing Subscription Fees and Servicing Fees are not in excess of the usual and customary brokers’ commission received in the sale of securities similar to the Units, that the Dealer’s interest in the Offering is limited to such Subscription Fee from its customers and Servicing Fee from the Dealer Manager.

Dealer waives any and all rights to receive compensation, including the Servicing Fee, until it is paid to and received by the Dealer Manager. Dealer affirms that the Dealer Manager’s liability for Servicing Fees is limited solely to the proceeds of the Servicing Fee receivable from the Partnership and Dealer hereby waives any and all rights to receive any reallowance of the Servicing Fee due until such time as the Dealer Manager is in receipt of the Servicing Fee from the Partnership. Dealer affirms that neither the Partnership nor the Dealer Manager have any obligation to the Dealer with respect to any Subscription Fees or other fees, including upfront selling commissions or placement fees, Dealer may charge to a Customer.

Dealer shall furnish Dealer Manager and the Partnership with such information as shall reasonably be requested by the Partnership with respect to the fees paid to Dealer pursuant to this Schedule I, and Dealer shall notify Dealer Manager if Dealer is not eligible to receive Subscription Fees and/or Servicing Fees at the time of purchase.
