V. No Offer or Advice

You acknowledge that the Content (1) is provided for general, informational purposes only; (2) does not constitute an offer to issue or sell, or a solicitation of an offer to subscribe, buy, or acquire an interest in, any securities, financial instruments, investments or other services, including any fund advised by AC (a “Fund”), nor does it constitute a financial promotion, investment advice or an inducement or incitement to participate in any product, offering or investment; (3) does not constitute an offer of AC’s investment advisory services; and (4) may not be used or relied upon in connection with any offer or sale of any such securities, financial instruments, investments or other services. An offer or solicitation will be made only through a final private placement memorandum, subscription agreement and other related documents with respect to a particular investment opportunity, and will be subject to the terms and conditions contained in such documents, including the qualifications necessary to become an investor. Dated Content speaks only as of the date indicated. While we make reasonable efforts to provide accurate information, we undertake no obligation to update or correct the Site even if we are aware that it is inaccurate, outdated or otherwise inappropriate, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. We do not warrant the completeness, timeliness or accuracy of the Content.

AC is not utilizing the Site to provide investment or other advice or strategies, and nothing on the Site is to be deemed a recommendation that you buy, sell or hold any security or other investment, or that you pursue any investment style or strategy. The investments and strategies discussed hereon may not be suitable for all investors, and are not obligations of or guaranteed by AC. Any offer to purchase or buy securities or other financial instruments of a Fund will only be made by a Fund’s Confidential Private Placement Memorandum (a “Memorandum”) and such Fund’s subscription documents, which will be furnished to qualified investors on a confidential basis at their request for their consideration in connection with any such offering. Any investment decision in connection with a Fund should be based on the information contained in a Memorandum and the information set forth herein is superseded in its entirety by, and is subject to, the information contained in a Memorandum. No securities commission or regulatory authority in the United States or in any other country has in any way passed upon the merits of an investment in any Fund or the accuracy or adequacy of the information or material contained herein or otherwise. This information is not, and under no circumstances is to be construed as, a prospectus, a public offering, or an offering memorandum as defined under applicable securities legislation. This Site is provided for informational purposes only, does not purport to be complete and may not contain certain material information (including, without limitation, terms, conditions and important disclosures and risk factors associated with an investment in a Fund). Nothing contained on the Site constitutes investment, accounting, tax or legal advice. If you would like such advice, you should consult with your own advisors with respect to your individual circumstances and needs. Decisions based on use of the Site are the sole responsibility of the user, and you agree that you shall not make any investment decisions based on the Site, and that AC is not liable for any action you take or decision you make in reliance based on the Site.

AC provides investment advice and solicits investment advisory services only in those states and countries where it is registered or where it is exempt from such registration.

VI. Past Performance

Any performance data or comments expressed on this Site or in the Content are an indication of past performance. Investments described or referred to on the Site are included solely as examples of AC investments and are for illustrative purposes only. AC does not make any assurances that such investments are or will be profitable (or that any AC investments will have similar properties to any such investments made at other firms). Such investments are not representative of all AC investments and are not to be considered a complete list of all investments made by AC. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS, and no representation is being made that any investment or transaction will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those achieved in the past, or that significant losses will be avoided.

Forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties, speak only as of the date on which they are made and are subject to change. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of the underlying expected actions or future performance and future results may differ significantly from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements.
