See “Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss.” INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS We generally provide investment advice to the Funds in accordance with the investment objectives, policies and guidelines set forth in the respective Funds’ offering and governing documents, and not in accordance with the individual needs or objectives of any particular investor in the Funds. Investors generally are not permitted to impose restrictions on investments in certain securities or types of securities or limitations on the management of the Funds. The Funds have and may enter into side letters or similar arrangements (collectively, "Side Letters"), with certain prospective or existing investors whereby such investors may be subject to terms and conditions that are more advantageous than those in the Funds’ offering and governing documents. For example, such terms and conditions do and may provide for special rights to make future investments in the Funds, other investment vehicles or managed accounts; special withdrawal rights, relating to frequency or notice; a reduction or rebate in management fees or performance-based compensation to be paid by the investor; special rights relating to participation in “Special Investments” (described below); rights to receive reports from the Funds on a more frequent basis or that include information not provided to other investors (including, without limitation, more detailed information regarding portfolio positions) and such other rights or terms as may be negotiated by the Funds and such investors. The modifications are solely at the discretion of the Funds and are, among other things, based on the size of the investor's investment in the Funds or affiliated investment entity, an agreement by an investor to maintain such investment in the Funds for a significant period of time or other similar commitment by an investor to the Funds, and have been granted to founding or strategic investors. Interests in the Funds are privately offered only to eligible investors pursuant to exemptions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder. The Funds are not registered with the SEC as investment companies based on specific exclusions from the definition of investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Company Act”). ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT As of December 31, 2022, Avidity had approximately $9,167 million in regulatory assets under management and all were managed on a discretionary basis.
