(“Casdin Offshore”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, Casdin Partners Master Fund, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership, which is a private pooled investment “master fund” in a master-feeder structure with Casdin Partners and Casdin Offshore (the “Master Fund”), Casdin Partners FO1-MSV, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“FO1”); Casdin Amplify Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Amplify”) (together the “ Hedge Funds”); Casdin Venture Opportunities Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Casdin Venture”), Casdin Private Growth Equity Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Casdin Private Growth”), and Casdin Private Equity Growth Fund II, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Casdin Private Growth II”) (together the “PE Funds").

all of its investable assets in the Master Fund through which we conduct these fund’s investment activities.

Our portfolio is generally comprised of small to mid-sized issuers in the following life sciences and healthcare sub-sectors: life sciences instrumentation and information technology, medical testing, drug development and distribution, synthetic biology and agriculture, livestock management and energy production. In addition, we also have discretion to invest in certain foreign equity securities if we determine that investments in such securities could generate risk-adjusted returns for our client funds. We tailor our advisory services to the individual needs and specified investment mandates of our client funds. We adhere to the investment strategy set forth in the private placement memorandum of each client fund. We do not, however, tailor our advisory services to the individual needs or any specified investment mandates of the investors of our client funds and those investors may not impose restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities. We have full investment discretion in investing on behalf of our client funds and will not be required to seek approval from a client fund or such client fund’s investors with respect to a client fund’s investments. We do not participate in any wrap-fee programs. As of December 31, 2023, we have regulatory assets under management of $2,643,698,992.
