Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

September 30, 2025

1. ORGANIZATION

CPG Vintage Access Fund VII, LLC (the "Fund") was organized as a Delaware limited liability company on February 2, 2024. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") as a closed-end, non-diversifiedmanagement investment company. The Fund commenced operations on May 24, 2024. The Fund's investment adviser is Macquarie Wealth Advisers, LLC (the "Adviser"), formerly known as Central Park Advisers, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund's investment objective is to seek long-termattractive risk adjusted returns. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective principally by making primary investments in a portfolio of institutional private equity, venture and private debt investment funds managed or sponsored by various asset management firms unaffiliated with the Adviser (the "Investment Funds") that are represented on the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC ("Morgan Stanley") platform during the Fund's vintage period. Morgan Stanley is not a sponsor, promoter, adviser or affiliate of the Fund.

Subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act, the business and affairs of the Fund shall be managed under the direction of the Fund's Board of Directors (the "Board," with an individual member referred to as a "Director"). The Board shall have the right, power and authority, on behalf of the Fund and in its name, to do all things necessary and proper to carry out its duties under the Fund's Limited Liability Company Agreement (the "LLC Agreement"), as amended and restated from time to time. Each Director shall be vested with the same powers, authority and responsibilities on behalf of the Fund as are customarily vested in each director of a closed-endmanagement investment company registered under the 1940 Act that is organized under Delaware law. No Director shall have the authority individually to act on behalf of or to bind the Fund except within the scope of such Director's authority as delegated by the Board. The Board may delegate the management of the Fund's day-to-dayoperations to one or more officers or other persons (including, without limitation, the Adviser), subject to the investment objective and policies of the Fund and to the oversight of the Board. The Directors have engaged the Adviser to provide investment advice regarding the selection of Investment Funds and to be responsible for the day-to-daymanagement of the Fund. In accordance with Rule 2a-5promulgated under the 1940 Act, the Board has appointed the Adviser as the Fund's valuation designee (the "Valuation Designee") and has assigned to the Adviser general responsibility for determining the value of the Fund's investments. In that role, the Adviser has established a committee (the Valuation Committee") that oversees the valuation of the Fund's investments pursuant to procedures adopted by the Adviser (the "Valuation Procedures").

The initial closing date for subscriptions for units of limited liability company interests ("Units") was May 24, 2024 ("Initial Closing"). Subsequent to the Initial Closing, the Fund offered Units at additional closings, which occurred over a period of up to approximately ten months following the Initial Closing (the last closing being referred to as the "Final Closing"). An investor that participated in a closing that occurred after the Initial Closing was required to pay a "make-upfee" amount to the Fund. Such "make-up" payment was calculated by applying an annualized rate of 8.0% to the percentage of the aggregate commitments by investors to the Fund ("Commitments") previously drawn down by the Fund and applied over the period of time since such draw-downs. The amount of the make-upfee payments were paid to and retained as assets of the Fund. This amount is presented as a component of net assets in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

The Fund does not have a fixed term. The Investment Funds, however, generally will have fixed terms. Investors reasonably can expect to receive distributions from the Fund periodically after the Fund receives distributions from Investment Funds and when Investment Funds terminate, which the Fund anticipates will occur approximately 10 to 12 years after the Final Closing. The Fund will be wound up and dissolved after its final distribution to investors. The Fund may be dissolved prior thereto in accordance with its LLC Agreement.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Fund meets the definition of an investment company and follows the accounting and reporting guidance as issued through the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies.

8

CPG Vintage Access Fund VII, LLC

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

September 30, 2025

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of the financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

Cash: Cash consists of monies and interest paying accounts held at UMB Bank, N.A. (the "Custodian"). Such cash may exceed federally insured limits. The Fund has not experienced any losses in such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on such accounts. There are no restrictions on the cash held by the Fund.

Investment Transactions: The Fund accounts for realized gains and losses from its Investment Funds based upon the pro-rataratio of the fair value and cost of the underlying investments at the date of distribution. Dividends are recorded on ex-dateand interest income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Distributions from Investment Funds will be received as underlying investments of the Investment Funds are liquidated. Distributions from Investment Funds occur at irregular intervals, and the exact timing of distributions from the Investment Funds has not been communicated from the Investment Funds. It is estimated that distributions will occur over the life of the Investment Funds.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 such differences could be material.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: The fair value of the Fund's assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments approximates the carrying amounts presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund values its investments in Investment Funds at fair value in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification, Fair Value Measurement ("ASC 820"). See Note 3 for more information.

Distribution and Servicing fees: During the offering period (extending ten months from the Initial Closing) of the Fund the Distribution and Servicing fees were charged to paid-incapital as a distribution cost. Thereafter the fees were expensed as incurred.

Segment Reporting:The Fund's chief executive officer acts as the Fund's chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), assessing performance and making decisions about resource allocation. The CODM has determined that the Fund has a single operating segment since the Fund has a single investment strategy disclosed in the prospectus against which the CODM assesses performance. When assessing segment performance and making decisions about segment resources, the CODM relies on the Fund's portfolio composition, total returns, expense ratios and changes in net assets which are consistent with the information contained in the Fund's financial statements.

Organizational Expenses: The Fund shall bear its organizational expenses; provided, however, that to the extent such organizational and offering expenses exceed $1,000,000, the excess amount over $1,000,000 shall be borne by the Adviser.

Federal Tax Information: It is the Fund's policy to attempt to qualify as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Fund's policy is to comply with the provisions of the Code applicable to RICs and to distribute to its investors substantially all its distributable net investment income and net realized gain on investments, if any, earned each year. See Note 7 Income Tax, below, for more information.

3. PORTFOLIO VALUATION

ASC 820 defines fair value as the value that the Fund would receive to sell an investment or pay to transfer a liability in a timely transaction with an independent buyer in the principal market, or in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the investment or liability. ASC 820 establishes a three-levelhierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable

CPG Vintage Access Fund VII, LLC

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

September 30, 2025

3. PORTFOLIO VALUATION (continued)

and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Fund. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. Each investment is assigned a level based upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation.

The three-tierhierarchy of inputs is summarized below:

• Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical financial instruments that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

• Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the financial instrument, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs also include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active.

• Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs for the financial instrument (including management's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

Investments in Investment Funds are recorded at fair value, using the Investment Funds' net asset value ("NAV") as a practical expedient and are excluded from the fair value hierarchy in accordance with ASC 820. Other investments are assigned a level based upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation.

The Investment Funds are generally restricted securities that are subject to substantial holding periods and are not traded in public markets, so that the Fund may not be able to resell some of its investments for extended periods, which may be several years.

The NAV of the Fund is determined by, or at the direction of, the Adviser as of the close of business on the last business day of each quarter-end, each date that a closing occurs and at such other times as the Board shall determine. The Fund's investments are subject to the terms and conditions of the respective operating agreements and offering memoranda, as appropriate. The Valuation Committee oversees the valuation process of the Fund's investments. The Valuation Committee meets on a quarterly basis and reports to the Board on a quarterly basis. ASC 820 provides for the use of NAV (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient to estimate fair value of investments in Investment Funds, provided certain conditions are met. As such, the Fund's investments in Investment Funds are carried at fair value which generally represents the Fund's pro-ratainterest in the net assets of each Investment Fund as reported by the administrators and/or investment managers of the underlying Investment Funds. All valuations utilize financial information supplied by each Investment Fund and are net of management and incentive fees or allocations payable to the Investment Funds' managers or pursuant to the Investment Funds' agreements. The Investment Funds value their underlying investments in accordance with policies established by each Investment Fund, as described in each of their financial statements or offering memoranda. The Fund's valuation procedures require the Adviser to consider all relevant information available at the time the Fund values its portfolio. The Adviser has assessed factors including, but not limited to, the individual Investment Funds' compliance with fair value measurements, price transparency and valuation procedures in place. The Adviser will consider such information and consider whether it is appropriate, in light of all relevant circumstances, to value such a position at its NAV as reported or whether to adjust such value. The underlying investments of each Investment Fund are accounted for at fair value as described in each Investment Fund's financial statements.

The Adviser employs ongoing due diligence policies and processes with respect to Investment Funds and their investment managers. The Adviser assesses the quality of information provided and determines whether such information continues to be reliable or whether additional inquiry is necessary. Such inquiries may require the Adviser to forego its normal reliance on the value provided and to independently determine the fair value of the Fund's interest in such Investment Fund.

3. PORTFOLIO VALUATION (continued)

The fair value relating to certain underlying investments of these Investment Funds, for which there is no active market, has been estimated by the respective Investment Fund's management and is based upon available information in the absence of readily ascertainable fair values and does not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had an active market for the investments existed. These differences could be material.

The following is a summary of the inputs used, as of September 30, 2025, in valuing the Fund's assets carried at fair value:

* The information summarized in the table above represents the general terms for the specified asset class. Individual Investment Funds may have terms that are more or less restrictive than those terms indicated for the asset class as a whole. In addition, most Investment Funds have the flexibility, as provided for in their offering documents, to modify and waive such terms.

Private equity is a common term for investments that typically are made in non-publiccompanies through privately negotiated transactions.

Private credit investments may be structured using a range of financial instruments, including but not limited to, first and second lien senior secured loans, unitranche debt, mezzanine debt, unsecured debt, and structurally subordinated instruments. While these strategies, which include special situations investments (including distressed investments), generally focus on originated or secondary purchases of fixed-incomesenior or subordinated credits of companies, they also may include certain equity features. Distressed investing encompasses a broad range of strategies including control and non-controldistressed debt, operational turnarounds, and "rescue" financings. The Fund's private credit investments may include investments in privately offered business development companies ("BDCs").

The cost of investments in Investment Funds for U.S. federal income tax purposes is adjusted for items of taxable income allocated to the Fund from such Investment Funds. The Fund relies upon actual and estimated tax information provided by the managers of the Investment Funds, subject to the review of the Advisor, as to the amounts of taxable income allocated to the Fund as of September 30, 2025.

7. INCOME TAX

Under the Code, the Fund may qualify for special tax status as a RIC, which allows for a deduction for dividends paid but prohibits any deduction for net operating losses. Because of the dividends paid deduction, RIC's generally do not incur Fund level income tax. Generally, state tax law recognizes the federal tax status of the Fund.

7. INCOME TAX (continued)

Annually, the Fund must meet certain requirements to maintain the benefit of RIC status, including an income test, asset test, and distribution requirements. To assist in maintaining RIC status, the Fund structure may include one, or more, corporations ("Blockers") that intentionally do not qualify for RIC status. Blockers file separate federal and state income tax returns. If Blockers exist in the Fund structure, the financial accounts of the Fund may include federal and state income tax balances and disclosures, as determined under the relevant tax law.

The Fund has adopted a tax year-endof September 30. For the tax year ending September 30, 2025, the Fund satisfied all requirements to maintain its status as a RIC and is subject to taxation under Subchapter M; therefore, no federal or state income tax amounts have been recognized at the Fund level.

Management evaluates the tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions will "more-likely-than-not" be sustained upon examination by the applicable tax authority. The tax benefit associated with any tax position that does not meet the more-likely-than-notthreshold is not recognized for financial reporting purposes. The Fund has not recognized any tax liability for unrecognized tax benefits or expenses. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended September 30, 2025, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from the characterization for federal income tax purposes due to differences in the recognition of income, expense and gains or loss items for financial statement and tax purposes. Where appropriate, reclassifications between net asset accounts are made for such differences that are permanent in nature.

The tax character of distributions will be evaluated once paid after the Tax Year ended September 30, 2025. The September 30, 2025 book cost has been adjusted for book/tax basis differences as of the Fund's last Tax Year end, September 30, 2024. The cost of investments and the net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments as of September 30, 2025 are noted below.

Under the Fund's organizational documents, its Officers and Directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In addition, in the ordinary course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts or agreements that contain indemnification or warranties. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

10.SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events after September 30, 2025 have been evaluated through the date the financial statements were issued.

In September of 2025 the Board appointed Macquarie Capital (USA) Inc. ("MCUSA") to replace DDLP as Placement Agent of the Fund, starting in October of 2025. MCUSA is an affiliate of the Adviser and is an indirect subsidiary of Macquarie. Under the new placement agent agreement, MCUSA will have the same terms and fee structure as DDLP.

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which the shareholders may recommend nominees to the Registrant's board of directors during the period covered by this report.

ITEM 16. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Registrant maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Registrant's filings and submissions under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act") are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Such information is accumulated and communicated to the Registrant's Management, including its Principal Executive Officer ("PEO") and Principal Financial Officer ("PFO"), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Registrant's Management, including the PEO and the PFO, recognizes that any set of controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

The Registrant's PEO and PFO, or persons performing similar functions, have concluded that due to the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below, the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 30a-3(c) under the 1940 Act) are not effective as of March 31, 2025, based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures required by Rule 30a-3(b) under the 1940 Act and Rules 13a-15(b) or 15d-15(b) under the 1934 Act (17 CFR 240.13a-15(b) or 240.15d-15(b)) and do not provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Registrant in its reports or statements filed under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Management identified a material weakness in the design and operating effectiveness of controls over the determination of the appropriate classification and presentation of cash and cash equivalents in the Registrant's financial statements. More specifically, the controls were not designed to determine (i) the appropriate identification, classification, and presentation of cash and cash equivalents in accordance with GAAP during the new account set up process and (ii) the appropriate and consistent reporting in the Registrant's financial statements.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Registrant's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. While this deficiency did not result in an error in the financial statement, this material weakness, if not remediated, could result in further misstatements related to the classification and presentation of cash and cash equivalents that would result in a material misstatement to the financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

Management's Remediation Plan. Subsequent to the identification of the material weakness described above, Management has developed a plan to remediate the material weakness described herein. Management's remediation procedures include integrating the Registrant into the new account set up process. As the Registrant enters into new bank accounts, Management will determine and document the appropriate GAAP classification of such accounts and validate its application during the financial reporting process to verify appropriate and consistent presentation and disclosure in the financial statements. Management will not be able to conclude whether the steps taken will fully remediate the material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting until it has completed its remediation efforts and subsequent evaluation of their effectiveness.

(b) Other than the changes to our internal controls over financial reporting described under Management's Remediation Plan with respect to the controls over new bank accounts, there were no significant changes in the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 30a-3(d) under the 1940 Act (17 CFR 270.30a-3(d)) that occurred during the period covered by the report to Unitholders included herein that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 17. DISCLOSURE OF THE SECURITIES LENDING ACTIVITIES FOR CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT COMPANIES.

(a) Not applicable.

(b) Not applicable.

ITEM 18. RECOVERY OF ERRONEOUSLY AWARDED COMPENSATION.

(a) Not applicable.

(b) Not applicable.

ITEM 19. EXHIBITS.

(a)(1) Not applicable for semi-annualreport.

(a)(2) Not applicable.

(a)(3) Certifications pursuant to Rule 30a-2(a) under the 1940 Act and Section 302 of the Sarbanes-OxleyAct of 2002 are attached hereto.

(a)(4) Not applicable.

(a)(5) Not applicable.

(b) Not applicable.
