Disclaimer for Risk Disclosure
This message has been prepared by personnel in the Sales Department or one or more of the trading desks of AVM, L.P. ("AVM") or its affiliates. It is not a research report and is not intended as such.

Non-Reliance and Risk Disclosure: This material should not be construed as an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any security in any jurisdiction where such an offer or solicitation would be illegal. We are not soliciting any action based on this material. It is for the general information of our clients. It does not constitute a recommendation or take into account the particular investment objectives, financial conditions, or needs of individual clients. Before acting on this material, you should consider whether it is suitable for your particular circumstances and, if necessary, seek professional advice. The price and value of the investments referred to in this material and the income from them may go down as well as up, and investors may realize losses on any investments. Past performance is not a guide to future performance. Future returns are not guaranteed, and a loss of original capital may occur. We do not provide tax, accounting, or legal advice to our clients, and all investors are advised to consult with their tax, accounting, or legal advisers regarding any potential investment. The material is based on information that we consider reliable, but we do not represent that it is accurate, complete and/or up to date, and it should not be relied on as such. Opinions expressed are our current opinions as of the date appearing on this material only and only represent the views of the author and not those of AVM unless otherwise expressly noted.

No Offer of Securities: No information presented should be used or considered as an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any interest in any investment fund. Any such offer or solicitation can and will be made only by means of the confidential offering memorandum of each such investment fund, and only in jurisdictions in which such an offer would be lawful and only to individuals who meet the investor suitability and sophistication requirements of each such investment fund, including qualifying as ”accredited investors” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and “qualified purchasers” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Access to information about the investment funds is similarly limited to individuals who meet the applicable investor suitability and sophistication requirements.

Risk Disclosure Regarding futures, options, equity swaps, and other derivatives as well as non-investment-grade securities and ADRs: Please ensure that you have read and understood the current options disclosure document before entering into any options transactions. Current United States listed options disclosure documents are available from our sales representatives or at http://www.theocc.com/components/docs/riskstoc.pdf. Certain transactions - including those involving futures, options, equity swaps, and other derivatives as well as non-investment-grade securities - give rise to substantial risk and are neither available to nor suitable for all investors. If you have any questions about whether you are eligible to enter into these transactions with AVM, please contact your sales representative. Foreign-currency-denominated securities are subject to fluctuations in exchange rates that could have an adverse effect on the value or price of, or income derived from, the investment. In addition, investors in securities such as ADRs, the values of which are influenced by foreign currencies, effectively assume currency risk.

Order Handling Practices for Listed and Over-the-Counter Derivatives: While the firm is holding your derivative order, the firm or its clients may engage in trading activity in the same or related products, including transactions in the underlying securities. While such trading activity is unrelated to your order, it may coincidentally impact the price of the derivative that you are buying or selling.

Not a Valuation: Values herein are not customer valuations and should not be used in lieu of a customer valuation statement or account statement. These values may not reflect the value of the positions carried on the books and records of AVM or its affiliates and should not be relied upon for the maintenance of your books and records or for any tax, accounting, legal or other purposes. The information provided herein does not supersede any customer statements, confirmations or other similar notifications.

Reproduction and Re-Distribution: No part of this material may be (i) copied, photocopied or duplicated in any form by any means or (ii) redistributed without our prior written consent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, and except as required to enable compliance with applicable securities law, you (and each of your employees, representatives and other agents) may disclose to any and all persons the U.S. federal income and state tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including tax opinions and other tax analyses) that are provided to you relating to such tax treatment and tax structure, without AVM imposing any limitation of any kind.
