(ARKVX)

Investing in innovation from early stage through mega cap

The ARK Venture Fund seeks to democratize venture capital, offering all
investors access to what we believe are the most innovative companies throughout
their private and public market lifecycles.

ARK'S VENTURE PHILOSOPHY

After years in the public equity markets, ARK is excited to leverage its
differentiated research on disruptive innovation in the private markets.

Eligible For All U.S. Investors
We aim to provide all investors, accredited and non-accredited, access to a
traditionally exclusive, private asset class with as little as $500.
Cost-Effective Alternative
We believe our single 20% management fee is more cost-effective than a
traditional ”2 and 20” fee structure (2% management fee, 20% carried interest).
Liquidity For An Illiquid Asset Class
Unlike traditional VC funds which lock capital up for years, ARK’s evergreen
public-private crossover fund offers clients partial liquidity through quarterly
redemptions.

FAQS

See All FAQs
How have the ARK Venture Fund’s expenses been updated?

As of March 31, 2023, the ARK Venture Fund will have reduced expenses thanks to
its Expense Limitation Agreement with ARK Investment Management LLC, the Fund’s
investment adviser (the “Adviser”). This means that the fund’s management fee
and operating expenses may be waived or reimbursed by the Adviser if they exceed
2.90%, which will result in lower expenses for the Fund. Additionally, the
Adviser has agreed to voluntarily reimburse the Fund money to ensure that all
existing investors will also benefit from reduced Fund expenses. Finally, the
Fund’s Distribution and Service Plan has been amended to reduce the compensation
paid to the Distributor.

What percentage of the fund will be deployed into early stage vs. late stage
opportunities?

We anticipate early-stage opportunities to represent 0-25% of the fund while
late-stage private opportunities represent 50-80%.

What makes this fund different from its competitors?

Unlike traditional venture capital funds, our fund is open to investors
regardless of accreditation or qualification. In addition, the Fund offers 5%
liquidity on a quarterly basis, so investors are not locked up for longer
periods like in traditional venture capital funds.

We believe our differentiated value proposition combined with our network of
co-investors, public companies, founders, and academics provides access to the
most promising private technology companies.

We believe our single 2.75% management fee is more cost-effective than
traditional venture capital funds under the ”2 and 20” model (2% management fee,
20% carried interest).

What is the process for identifying new deals and how are they diligenced?

We actively source deals from our network of co-investors, public companies,
founders, and academics. Additionally, our Analysts identify potential
investment targets.

Companies go through a rigorous due diligence process, including discussions
with the company, reference calls, financial modelling and are being scored on
ARK’s proprietary five scores, people management and culture, product
leadership, barriers of entry, ability to execute and thesis risk.

How do liquidity windows work?

Investors can request redemptions on a quarterly basis. Up to 5% of the Fund’s
outstanding Shares can be redeemed every quarter.

Is this fund open to international investors?

The ARK Venture Fund is not currently available to international investors on
the Titan platform.� The fund continues to investigate platforms that can
accommodate international investors.� Please contact
support@arkventuregroup.cloud for more information.

What happens when a private company held in the fund goes public?

The ARK Venture Fund has the ability to hold public companies, and therefore can
hold companies after initial public offering (IPO).

BEFORE INVESTING YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FUND’S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES,
RISKS, CHARGES AND EXPENSES. THIS AND OTHER INFORMATION IS IN THE PROSPECTUS, A
COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED HERE. PLEASE READ THE PROSPECTUS CAREFULLY BEFORE
YOU INVEST.

AN INDICATION OF INTEREST IN RESPONSE TO THIS ADVERTISEMENT WILL INVOLVE NO
OBLIGATION OR COMMITMENT OF ANY KIND.� 

The ARK Venture Fund will be distributed to RIAs, family offices, high net worth
individuals and institutional investors through other distribution channels, but
is available to retail investors exclusively on Titan. Ark Ventures is an
investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”).

The ARK Venture Fund is a continuously-offered, non-diversified, registered
closed-end fund with limited liquidity. You should not expect to be able to sell
your Shares in the ARK Venture Fund other than through the Fund’s repurchase
policy, regardless of how the Fund performs. The Fund’s Shares will not be
listed on any securities exchange, and the Fund does not expect a secondary
market in the Shares to develop.

ARK Investment Management has entered into an agreement with Ark ventures, where
it pays a fee for the ARK Venture Fund (the “Fund”) to be made available on its
platform. In addition, Foreside Fund Services, LLC, the distributor of the Fund,
pays Ark Ventures a portion of the distribution and services fee it receives
from the Fund. ARK Investment Management, Foreside Fund Services, and Titan are
unrelated parties.

There is no assurance that the Fund will meet its investment objective. The
value of your investment in the Fund, as well as the amount of return you
receive on your investment in the Fund, may fluctuate significantly. You may
lose part or all of your investment in the Fund or your investment may not
perform as well as other similar investments. Therefore, you should consider
carefully the following risks before investing in the Fund.

Communications Sector Risk.� The Fund will be more affected by the performance
of the communications sector than a fund with less exposure to such
sector.� Cyber Security Risk.� As the use of Internet technology has become more
prevalent in the course of business, funds have become more susceptible to
potential operational risks through breaches in cyber security.� Disruptive
Innovation Risk.� Companies that the Adviser believes are capitalizing on
disruptive innovation and developing technologies to displace older technologies
or create new markets may not in fact do so.� Financial Technology
Risk.� Companies that are developing financial technologies that seek to disrupt
or displace established financial institutions generally face competition from
much larger and more established firms.� Next Generation Internet Companies
Risk.� The risks described below apply, in particular, to the Fund’s investment
in Next Generation Internet Companies.� Foreign Securities Risk.� The Fund’s
investments in foreign securities can be riskier than U.S. securities
investments. Investments in the securities of foreign issuers (including
investments in ADRs and GDRs) are subject to the risks associated with investing
in those foreign markets, such as heightened risks of inflation or
nationalization. The prices of foreign securities and the prices of U.S.
securities have, at times, moved in opposite directions. In addition, securities
of foreign issuers may lose value due to political, economic and geographic
events affecting a foreign issuer or market. During periods of social, political
or economic instability in a country or region, the value of a foreign security
traded on U.S. exchanges could be affected by, among other things, increasing
price volatility, illiquidity, or the closure of the primary market on which the
security (or the security underlying the ADR or GDR) is traded. You may lose
money due to political, economic and geographic events affecting a foreign
issuer or market. The Fund normally will not hedge any foreign currency
exposure.� Future Expected Genomic Business Risk.� The Adviser may invest some
of the Fund’s assets in Genomics Revolution Companies that do not currently
derive a substantial portion of their current revenues from genomic-focused
businesses and there is no assurance that any company will do so in the future,
which may adversely affect the ability of the Fund to achieve its investment
objective.� Emerging Market Securities Risk.� Investment in securities of
emerging market issuers may present risks that are greater than or different
from those associated with securities of developed market issuers due to less
developed and liquid markets and such factors as increased economic, political,
regulatory, or other uncertainties.� Cryptocurrency Risk.� Cryptocurrencies
(also referred to as “virtual currencies” and “digital currencies”) are digital
assets designed to act as a medium of exchange. Cryptocurrency is an emerging
asset class. There are thousands of cryptocurrencies, the most well-known of
which is bitcoin. The Fund may have exposure to cryptocurrencies, such as
bitcoin indirectly through an investment in the Bitcoin Investment Trust
(“GBTC”), a privately offered, open-end investment vehicle that invests in
bitcoin.� Health Care Sector Risk.� The health care sector may be affected by
government regulations and government health care programs, restrictions on
government reimbursement for medical expenses, increases or decreases in the
cost of medical products and services and product liability claims, among other
factors.� Leverage Risk.� The use of leverage can create risks. Leverage can
increase market exposure, increase volatility in the Fund, magnify investment
risks, and cause losses to be realized more quickly.� New Fund Risk.� There can
be no assurance that the Fund will grow to or maintain an economically viable
size, in which case the Board may determine to liquidate the Fund if it
determines that liquidation is in the best interest of
shareholders.� Non-Diversification Risk.� The Fund is classified as a
“non-diversified” investment company under the 1940 Act. Therefore, the Fund may
invest a relatively higher percentage of its assets in a relatively smaller
number of issuers or may invest a larger proportion of its assets in a single
issuer. As a result, the gains and losses on a single investment may have a
greater impact on the Fund’s NAV and may make the Fund more volatile than more
diversified funds.
