MWNA provides discretionary investment management services in accordance with its clients’ mandates. Clients are the private collective investment vehicles and any separately-managed accounts it advises and sub-advises. As of 29 March 2024, MWNA had approximately $28,564,650,578 in regulatory assets under management (approximately $12,250,598,186 in net assets under management), all of which are managed on a discretionary basis. MWNA generally focuses on fundamental and quantitative long/short, long-only, and long-extension investment strategies that aim to achieve their investment objectives

by trading in common equity securities, but also trading in other equities and non-equities, including debt instruments, options, futures, swaps, other derivatives, private securities, and other investments and instruments. We tailor our advisory services to the individual needs of our clients by offering bespoke investment strategies that focus on or exclude certain instruments, differ in use of leverage or benchmarks, and other such factors as mutually agreed between MWNA and the client. MWNA will permit any separately managed account clients to impose restrictions on their accounts with respect to: (1) the specific types of investments or asset classes that we will or will not purchase for their account; (2) the nature of the issuers of investments that we will or will not purchase for their account; or (3) the risk or liquidity profile of instruments we will or will not purchase for their account. Each fund managed or sub-advised by MWNA (each, a “Fund”) is governed by the terms set forth in its respective offering documents. Interests and shares (collectively, “Interests”) in MWNA’s Funds are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Funds are not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). Accordingly, Interests in the Funds are offered exclusively to investors satisfying the applicable eligibility and suitability requirements either in private placement transactions within the United States or in non-United States transactions. Interests in the Funds are offered in private transactions only to qualified investors, and only by means of a prospectus or offering memorandum (“Prospectus”).
