PRIVACORE PCAAM ALTERNATIVE INCOME FUND

February 13, 2026

Dear Privacore PCAAM Alternative Income Fund Shareholder,

As you may know, Privacore PCAAM Alternative Income Fund (the "Fund") is required to make a repurchase offer (the "Repurchase Offer") to its shareholders each quarter. While the Fund is required to make the Repurchase Offer, shareholders are not required to take any action. The purpose of the enclosed letter is to communicate the required quarterly Repurchase Offer. If you do not wish to sell shares at this time, please disregard this notice.

The purpose of these quarterly Repurchase Offers is to provide shareholders with access to their assets and a degree of liquidity. The repurchase offer period will begin on February 13, 2026 and end on March 16, 2026.

If you invest in the Fund through a financial intermediary, please contact your financial intermediary to repurchase your shares on your behalf. All Repurchase Offer Request Forms must be submitted to and received by the Fund by 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on March 16, 2026 to be effective. Please allow an appropriate amount of time for your Repurchase Offer Request Form to reach the Fund.

For details of the offer and terms, please refer to the attached Repurchase Offer document. If you have questions, please call UMB Fund Services at 855-685-3093.

Sincerely,

Privacore PCAAM Alternative Income Fund

PRIVACORE PCAAM ALTERNATIVE INCOME FUND
REPURCHASE OFFER

1. The Offer. Privacore PCAAM Alternative Income Fund (the "Fund") is offering to repurchase, for cash, up to five percent (5%) of its outstanding Class I shares as of the Repurchase Request Deadline (defined below), at a price equal to the net asset value ("NAV") per share as of the close of regular business hours on the New York Stock Exchange on the Repurchase Pricing Date (defined below). The purpose of this offer is to provide a level of liquidity to shareholders given that no secondary market exists for these shares. This offer is not conditioned on the tender of any minimum number of shares. This offer is made subject to the terms and conditions made in this Repurchase Offer and the Fund's private placement memorandum and statement of additional information.

2. Net Asset Value. The NAV per share on February 6, 2026 was $10.29 for Class I shares. The NAV per share at which the Fund will repurchase shares will not be calculated until the Repurchase Pricing Date (defined below). The NAV per share can fluctuate. Therefore, the NAV per share on the Repurchase Pricing Date may be higher or lower than the NAV per share stated above or the date on which you return your Repurchase Offer Request Form. The current NAV per share may be obtained by calling 855-685-3093 and asking for the most recent price. The shares of the Fund are not traded on any organized market or securities exchange.

3. Repurchase Request Deadline. All Repurchase Offer Request Forms must be received in proper form by 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on March 16, 2026 (the "Repurchase Request Deadline"). Please allow an appropriate amount of time for your Repurchase Request Offer Form to reach the Fund.

4. Repurchase Pricing Date. The NAV per share used to calculate the repurchase price will be determined on March 16, 2026 (the "Repurchase Pricing Date"). This may be higher or lower than the NAV per share on the date on which you return your Repurchase Offer Request Form.

5. Payment for Shares Repurchased. The Fund will pay repurchase proceeds within seven (7) calendar days from the Repurchase Pricing Date. The Fund will not charge a repurchase fee. 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. However, if your shares are held for you by your broker-dealer, or for your retirement plan by your retirement plan trustee or otherwise by a nominee, such person may charge a transaction fee for submitting a repurchase request for you.

6. Increase in Number of Shares Repurchased; Pro Rata Purchase. If shareholders tender for repurchase more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of the Fund as of the Repurchase Request Deadline, the Fund may, but is not required to, repurchase up to an additional two percent (2%) of the Fund's outstanding shares as of the Repurchase Request Deadline. If the Fund determines not to repurchase an additional two percent (2%) or if more than seven percent (7%) of the outstanding shares are tendered, then the Fund will repurchase shares on a pro rata basis. However, the Fund may accept all shares tendered for repurchase by shareholders who own fewer than 100 shares and who tender all of their shares, before prorating other amounts tendered. There can be no assurance that the Fund will be able to repurchase all shares that each shareholder has tendered, even if all the shares in a shareholder's account are tendered. In the event of an oversubscribed offer, the Fund may not be able to repurchase all shares that you tender, and you may have to wait until the next quarterly repurchase offer to tender the remaining shares. Subsequent repurchase requests will not be given priority over other shareholder requests. You may be subject to NAV fluctuation during the period between quarterly repurchase offers.

7. Withdrawal or Modification. Requests for the repurchase of shares may be withdrawn or modified at any time prior to 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on March 16, 2026.

8. Suspension or Postponement of Repurchase Offer. The Fund may suspend or postpone this Repurchase Offer only by a vote of a majority of the members of the board of trustees (the "Board" or and the members thereof, the "Trustees") of the Fund, including a majority of the independent Trustees, who are not "interested persons" of the Fund, as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and only in the following limited circumstances:

(a) if making or effecting the Repurchase Offer would cause the Fund to lose its status as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code, as amended;

(b) for any period during which the New York Stock Exchange or any market on which the securities owned by the Fund are principally traded is closed, other than customary weekend and holiday closings, or during which trading in such market is restricted;

(c) for any period during which an emergency exists as a result of which disposal by the Fund of securities owned by it is not reasonably practicable, or during which it is not reasonably practicable for the Fund fairly to determine the value of its net assets; or

(d) for such other periods as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission may by order permit for the protection of shareholders of the Fund.

9. Tax Consequences. You should review the tax information in the Fund's private placement memorandum and statement of additional information and consult your tax advisor regarding any specific consequences, including state and local tax consequences, of participating in the repurchase. Generally, any tender of shares to the Fund would be treated as a taxable event and any gain or loss would be treated as a capital gain or loss, either short or long term, depending on the length of time the shares have been held by the shareholder.

10. Documents in Proper Form. All questions as to validity, form, eligibility (including time and receipt) and acceptance of repurchase of shares will be determined by the Fund in its sole discretion. The determination by the Fund shall be final and binding. The Fund reserves the absolute right to reject any or all repurchase of shares (even if such tenders are determined to be in good and proper form) and to refuse to accept for payment, purchase, or to pay for any shares if, in the opinion of Fund's counsel, accepting, purchasing or paying for such shares would be unlawful. The Fund also reserves the absolute right to waive any of the conditions of this offer or any defect in any repurchase of shares, whether generally or with respect to any particular shares or shareholders. The Fund's interpretations of the terms and conditions of this offer shall be final and binding. Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with repurchases of shares must be corrected within such times as the Fund shall, in its absolute discretion, decide. Repurchases of shares will not be deemed to have been made until any defects or irregularities have been corrected or waived.

None of the Fund, Privacore Capital Advisors, LLC (the "Adviser"), Partners Capital Investment Group, LLP (the "Sub-Adviser), the transfer agent, the Fund's placement agent, nor any other person or entity is or will be obligated to give notice of any defects or irregularities in tenders, nor shall any of them incur any liability for failure to give any such notice.

None of the Fund, the Adviser, Sub-Adviser, nor the Fund's placement agent is or will be obligated to ensure that your financial consultant, or any broker/dealer or any other third party through which your shares may be held or registered, submits to you this Repurchase Offer or submits your tender of shares to the Fund on your behalf.

Neither the Fund nor its Board makes any recommendation to any shareholder as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering shares. Each shareholder must make an independent decision as to whether or not to tender shares and, if so, how many shares to tender.

No person has been authorized to make any recommendation on behalf of the Fund as to whether shareholders should tender shares pursuant to this Repurchase Offer. No person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representations in connection with this Repurchase Offer other than those contained herein or contained in the Fund's private placement memorandum or statement of additional information. If given or made, such recommendation and such information and representation may not be relied upon as having been authorized by the Fund.

If you purchased shares of the Fund through an investment adviser, broker or financial consultant, please contact them for additional information about this Repurchase Offer.

Please note that a negative NIA is permitted and, if applicable, will be deducted from the amount of the excess contribution.

Date General Instructions Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code unless otherwise noted. Future developments. For the latest information about any future developments related to Form W-4R, such as legislation enacted after it was published, go to www.irs.gov/FormW4R. Purpose of form. Complete Form W-4R to have payers withhold the correct amount of federal income tax from your nonperiodic payment or eligible rollover distribution from an employer retirement plan, annuity (including a commercial annuity), or individual retirement arrangement (IRA). See page 2 for the rules and options that are available for each type of payment. Don't use Form W-4R for periodic payments (payments made in installments at regular intervals over a period of more than 1 year) from these plans or arrangements. Instead, use Form W-4P, Withholding Certificate for Periodic Pension or Annuity Payments. For more information on withholding, see Pub. 505, Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax. Caution: If you have too little tax withheld, you will generally owe tax when you file your tax return and may owe a penalty unless you make timely payments of estimated tax. If too much tax is withheld, you will generally be due a refund when you file your tax return. Your withholding choice (or an election not to have withholding on a nonperiodic payment) will generally apply to any future payment from the same plan or IRA. Submit a new Form W-4R if you want to change your election. 2026 Marginal Rate Tables You may use these tables to help you select the appropriate withholding rate for this payment or distribution.

Form W-4R (2026) Page 2 General Instructions (continued) Nonperiodic payments-10% withholding. Your payer must withhold at a default 10% rate from the taxable amount of nonperiodic payments unless you enter a different rate on line 2. Distributions from an IRA that are payable on demand are treated as nonperiodic payments. Note that the default rate of withholding may not be appropriate for your tax situation. You may choose to have no federal income tax withheld by entering "-0-" on line 2. See the specific instructions below for more information. Generally, you are not permitted to elect to have federal income tax withheld at a rate of less than 10% (including "-0-") on any payments to be delivered outside the United States and its territories. Note: If you don't give Form W-4R to your payer, you don't provide an SSN, or the IRS notifies the payer that you gave an incorrect SSN, then the payer must withhold 10% of the payment for federal income tax and can't honor requests to have a lower (or no) amount withheld. Generally, for payments that began before 2026, your current withholding election (or your default rate) remains in effect unless you submit a Form W-4R. Eligible rollover distributions-20% withholding. Distributions you receive from qualified retirement plans (for example, 401(k) plans and section 457(b) plans maintained by a governmental employer) or tax-sheltered annuities that are eligible to be rolled over to an IRA or qualified plan are subject to a 20% default rate of withholding on the taxable amount of the distribution. You can't choose withholding at a rate of less than 20% (including "-0-"). Note that the default rate of withholding may be too low for your tax situation. You may choose to enter a rate higher than 20% on line 2. Don't give Form W-4R to your payer unless you want more than 20% withheld. Note that the following payments are not eligible rollover distributions for purposes of these withholding rules: Qualifying "hardship" distributions; Distributions required by federal law, such as required minimum distributions; Distributions from a pension-linked emergency savings account; Eligible distributions to a domestic abuse victim; Qualified disaster recovery distributions; Qualified birth or adoption distributions; Qualified long-term care distributions; and Emergency personal expense distributions. See Pub. 505 for details. See also Nonperiodic payments- 10% withholding above. Payments to nonresident aliens and foreign estates. Do not use Form W-4R. See Pub. 515, Withholding of Tax on Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Entities, and Pub. 519, U.S. Tax Guide for Aliens, for more information. Tax relief for victims of terrorist attacks. If your disability payments for injuries incurred as a direct result of a terrorist attack are not taxable, enter "-0-" on line 2. See Pub. 3920, Tax Relief for Victims of Terrorist Attacks, for more details. Specific Instructions Line 1b For an estate, enter the estate's employer identification number (EIN) in the area reserved for "Social security number." Line 2 More withholding. If you want more than the default rate withheld from your payment, you may enter a higher rate on line 2. Less withholding (nonperiodic payments only). If permitted, you may enter a lower rate on line 2 (including "-0-") if you want less than the 10% default rate withheld from your payment. If you have already paid, or plan to pay, your tax on this payment through other withholding or estimated tax payments, you may want to enter "-0-". Suggestion for determining withholding. Consider using the Marginal Rate Tables on page 1 to help you select the appropriate withholding rate for this payment or distribution. The tables are most accurate if the appropriate amount of tax on all other sources of income, deductions, and credits has been paid through other withholding or estimated tax payments. If the appropriate amount of tax on those sources of income has not been paid through other withholding or estimated tax payments, you can pay that tax through withholding on this payment by entering a rate that is greater than the rate in the Marginal Rate Tables. The marginal tax rate is the rate of tax on each additional dollar of income you receive above a particular amount of income. You can use the table for your filing status as a guide to find a rate of withholding for amounts above the total income level in the table. To determine the appropriate rate of withholding from the table, do the following. Step 1: Find the rate that corresponds with your total income not including the payment. Step 2: Add your total income and the taxable amount of the payment and find the corresponding rate. If these two rates are the same, enter that rate on line 2. (See Example 1 below.) If the two rates differ, multiply (a) the amount in the lower rate bracket by the rate for that bracket, and (b) the amount in the higher rate bracket by the rate for that bracket. Add these two numbers; this is the expected tax for this payment. To get the rate to have withheld, divide this amount by the taxable amount of the payment. Round up to the next whole number and enter that rate on line 2. (See Example 2 below.) If you prefer a simpler approach (but one that may lead to overwithholding), find the rate that corresponds to your total income including the payment and enter that rate on line 2. Examples. Assume the following facts for Examples 1 and 2. Your filing status is single. You expect the taxable amount of your payment to be $20,000. Appropriate amounts have been withheld for all other sources of income and any deductions or credits. Example 1. You expect your total income to be $70,000 without the payment. Step 1: Because your total income without the payment, $70,000, is greater than $66,500 but less than $121,800, the corresponding rate is 22%. Step 2: Because your total income with the payment, $90,000, is greater than $66,500 but less than $121,800, the corresponding rate is 22%. Because these two rates are the same, enter "22" on line 2. Example 2. You expect your total income to be $60,000 without the payment. Step 1: Because your total income without the payment, $60,000, is greater than $28,500 but less than $66,500, the corresponding rate is 12%. Step 2: Because your total income with the payment, $80,000, is greater than $66,500 but less than $121,800, the

corresponding rate is 22%. The two rates differ. $6,500 of the $20,000 payment is in the lower bracket ($66,500 less your total income of $60,000 without the payment), and $13,500 is in the higher bracket ($20,000 less the $6,500 that is in the lower bracket). Multiply $6,500 by 12% to get $780. Multiply $13,500 by 22% to get $2,970. The sum of these two amounts is $3,750. This is the estimated tax on your payment. This amount corresponds to 19% of the $20,000 payment ($3,750 divided by $20,000). Enter "19" on line 2. Privacy Act and Paperwork Reduction Act Notice. We ask for the information on this form to carry out the Internal Revenue laws of the United States. You are required to provide this information only if you want to (a) request additional federal income tax withholding from your nonperiodic payment(s) or eligible rollover distribution(s); (b) choose not to have federal income tax withheld from your nonperiodic payment(s), when permitted; or (c) change a previous Form W-4R (or a previous Form W-4P that you completed with respect to your nonperiodic payments or eligible rollover distributions). To do any of the aforementioned, you are required by sections 3405(e) and 6109 and their regulations to provide the information requested on this form. Failure to provide this information may result in inaccurate withholding on your payment(s).
