Organization

Advantage Advisers Xanthus Fund, L.L.C. (the “Company”) was organized as a limited liability company under the laws of Delaware in January 1999. The Company is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as a closed-end, management investment company and operates as a diversified company. The Company’s term is perpetual, but it may be dissolved under the terms of the Third Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Company dated July 1, 2018. The Company’s investment objective is to achieve maximum capital appreciation. The Company pursues this objective by investing its assets primarily in equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies that Alkeon Capital Management L.L.C. (“Alkeon”), the sub-investment adviser of the Company, believes are well positioned to benefit from demand for their products or services; particularly, companies that can innovate or grow rapidly relative to their peers in their markets. These companies are generally considered to be “growth companies.” As part of its investment program, the Company may also engage in the short sales of securities that Alkeon believes are overvalued. Companies that derive major portions of their revenues from technology-related business lines or which are expected to benefit from technological events are an important part of the universe of growth companies. The Company may invest without limitation, however, in other industry sectors, if those other sectors present attractive opportunities for capital appreciation. The Company’s investment portfolio includes long and short positions primarily in equity securities, purchased options and total return swaps on equity securities of U.S. and non-U.S. companies. Equity securities include common and preferred stocks and other securities having equity characteristics, including convertible debt securities, stock options, warrants and rights.

Responsibility for the overall management and supervision of the operations of the Company is vested in the Board of Managers of the Company (the “Board of Managers”). There are six members of the Board of Managers, one of whom is an “interested person” of the Company as defined by the Act. The Company’s investment adviser is Advantage Advisers Multi-Manager, L.L.C. (“Multi-Manager”), a subsidiary of Oppenheimer Asset Management Inc. (“OAM”) and an affiliate of Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. (“Oppenheimer”). Multi-Manager also provides certain administrative services to the Company pursuant to an administrative services agreement. Multi-Manager serves as the Company’s investment adviser pursuant to an investment advisory agreement dated July 1, 2011. OAM is the managing member of Multi-Manager and Alkeon is a non-managing member of Multi-Manager. Advantage Advisers Management, L.L.C., an affiliate of Multi-Manager (the “Special Advisory Member”), holds a non-voting special advisory member interest in the Company solely for the purpose of receiving the incentive allocation (see Note 3). OAM and Alkeon are members of the Special Advisory Member. Alkeon has been retained to manage the Company’s investment portfolio under the supervision of Multi-Manager pursuant to a Sub-Investment Advisory Agreement dated July 1, 2011.

The acceptance by the Company of initial and additional contributions from persons who purchase limited liability company interests (“Interests”) in the Company (each, a “Member” and collectively, “Members”) are subject to approval by the Board of Managers. The Company generally accepts initial and additional contributions as of the first day of each month. No

Member has the right to require the Company to redeem any portion of its Interest. However, the Company may from time to time offer to repurchase Interests from Members. Such offers are made at such times and on such terms as may be determined by the Board of Managers, in its complete and exclusive discretion. In general, Multi-Manager recommends to the Board of Managers that the Company offer to repurchase Interests twice each year, based upon the value of Interests determined as of the end of the second fiscal quarter and as of at the end of the fiscal year.

Generally, except as provided under applicable law, a Member is not liable for the Company’s debts, obligations and liabilities in any amount in excess of the capital account balance of such Member, plus such Member’s share of undistributed profits and assets.

Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (hereafter referred to as “authoritative guidance”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management believes that the estimates utilized in preparing the Company’s financial statements are reasonable and prudent; however, actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences could be material.

Basis of Presentation:

The Company qualifies as an investment company under Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification 946, Financial Services — Investment Company (Topic 946), Amendments to the scope, measurement and disclosure requirements (“ASC 946”), and follows the accounting and reporting guidance of ASC 946.

The following is a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies:

a.

Revenue Recognition

Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis utilizing specific identification for determining realized gains and losses associated with investment transactions. Dividends received are recorded on the ex-dividend date, net of any applicable withholding taxes. Interest income and expense are recorded on the accrual basis. Premiums and discounts on fixed income securities are amortized using the effective interest rate method.

b.

Portfolio Valuation

The Company’s portfolio securities are valued in accordance with policies adopted by the Board of Managers, which are summarized below.

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

b.

Portfolio Valuation (continued)

(i)

Domestic exchange traded securities (other than options and securities traded on NASDAQ) are valued as follows:

(1)

at their last composite sale prices as reported on the exchanges where those securities are traded; or

(2)

if no sales of those securities are reported on a particular day, the securities are valued based upon their composite bid prices for securities held long, or their composite asked prices for securities sold, not yet purchased, as reported by those exchanges.

(ii)

Securities traded on NASDAQ are valued as follows:

(1)

at their NASDAQ Official Closing Prices (“NOCP”) (which is the last trade price at or before 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) adjusted up to NASDAQ’s best offer price if the last traded price is below such bid and down to NASDAQ’s best offer price if the last trade is above such offer price); or

(2)

if no NOCP is available, at their last sale prices on the NASDAQ prior to the calculation of the net asset value of the Company; or

(3)

if no sale is shown on NASDAQ, at their bid prices; or

(4)

if no sale is shown and no bid price is available, the securities are valued at fair value in accordance with the procedures described below.

Securities traded on foreign securities exchanges are valued at their last sales prices on the exchange where such securities are primarily traded, or in the absence of a reported sale on a particular day, at their bid prices (in the case of securities held long) or ask prices (in the case of securities sold, not yet purchased) as reported by such exchange.

Listed options are valued at their bid prices (or ask prices in the case of listed written options) as reported by the exchange with the highest volume on the last day a trade was reported. Other securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at their bid prices (or ask prices in the case of securities sold, not yet purchased) as obtained from one or more dealers making markets for those securities. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by, or under the supervision of, the Board of Managers.

Total return swaps are valued based on the values of their reference securities determined in accordance with the procedures described above, net of any contractual terms with the counterparty.

b.

Portfolio Valuation (continued)

Debt securities are valued using valuations furnished by a pricing service which employs a matrix to determine valuation for normal institutional size trading units or in consultation with brokers and dealers in such securities.

Forward contracts are traded over-the-counter. The fair value of forward contracts is determined using observable inputs such as currency exchange rates or commodity prices, applied to notional amounts stated in the applicable contracts. The Company did not hold any forward contracts during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

All assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars using foreign exchange rates provided by a pricing service compiled as of 4:00 p.m. London time. Trading in foreign securities generally is completed, and the values of foreign securities are determined, prior to the close of securities markets in the U.S. Foreign exchange rates are also determined prior to such close. On occasion, the values of foreign securities and exchange rates may be affected by events occurring between the time such values or exchange rates are determined and the time the net asset value of the Company is determined. When such events materially affect the values of securities held by the Company or its liabilities, such securities and liabilities are fair valued as determined in good faith by, or under the supervision of, the Board of Managers. The Company includes the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments in net realized and net change in unrealized gain/(loss) on investments in securities, purchased options, and swap contracts on the Statement of Operations.

The determination of fair value takes into account relevant factors and surrounding circumstances, which may include: (i) the nature and pricing history (if any) of the security or other investment; (ii) whether any dealer quotations are available; (iii) possible valuation methodologies that could be used to determine fair value; (iv) the recommendation of Multi-Manager with respect to the valuation; (v) whether the same or similar securities or other investments are held by other accounts or other funds managed by Multi-Manager and the valuation method used by Multi-Manager with respect thereto; (vi) the extent to which the fair value to be determined will result from the use of data or formulae produced by third parties independent of Multi-Manager; and (vii) the liquidity or illiquidity of the market for the security or other investment. As of June 30, 2022, no securities were fair valued by the Board of Managers.

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments approximates the carrying amounts presented in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company followed authoritative guidance for fair value measurement. The authoritative guidance establishes a framework for measuring fair

value and a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. The authoritative guidance establishes three levels of inputs in the hierarchy that may be used to measure fair value as follows:

Level 1 — observable market inputs that are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayments speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these securities. Additional information on the investments can be found in the Schedule of Portfolio Investments, the Schedule of Purchased Options, the Schedule of Securities Sold, Not Yet Purchased and the Schedule of Swap Contracts.

The following is a summary of the inputs used, as of June 30, 2022, in valuing the Company’s investments at fair value.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company treats all highly liquid financial instruments that mature within three months at the time of purchase as cash equivalents. Restricted cash of  $139,205,911 listed in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital represents funds held by the Company’s custodian, the Bank of New York Mellon (the “Custodian”), of which $135,876,637 is held as collateral for swap contracts and $3,329,274 is held as collateral for securities sold, not yet purchased.

Cash and Cash Equivalents (continued)

June 30, 2022, $139,206,204 in cash equivalents was held at the Custodian in a cash reserve account.

The Company maintains cash in bank deposit accounts with the Custodian which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on such bank deposits.

d.

Income Taxes

The Company is treated as a partnership for tax purposes. As a result, no Federal, state or local income taxes have been paid by the Company and Members are individually liable for the taxes on their respective shares of the Company’s income or loss. The only taxes payable by the Company on its income are foreign withholding taxes applicable to certain foreign income. The Company identifies its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal, New York State and foreign jurisdictions where the Company makes significant investments. The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, Income Taxes, which provides guidance related to the evaluation of uncertain tax positions. ASC 740 requires that management evaluate whether a tax position of the Company is “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation process, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Derecognition of a tax benefit previously recognized could result in the Company recording a tax liability that would reduce Members’ Capital.

Based on its analysis, management has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax exposures should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions, including consideration of penalties and interest, for open tax years. The Company accrues interest and penalties, if applicable, within country tax expense on the Statement of Operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company did not accrue any interest or penalties payable. As of June 30, 2022, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the U.S. Federal tax jurisdiction under the statute of limitations are from the year 2018 and forward and since inception in certain foreign jurisdictions. Management’s conclusions regarding the Company’s uncertain tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. Management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefit will materially change over the next twelve months.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-03, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820),” which clarifies the guidance in Topic 820 when measuring the fair value of an equity security

subject to contractual restrictions that prohibit the sale of an equity security and introduces new disclosure requirements for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820. The amendments affect all entities that have investments in equity securities measured at fair value that are subject to a contractual sale restriction. ASU 2022-03 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. An entity that qualifies as an investment company under Topic 946 should apply the amendments in ASU No. 2022-03 to an investment in an equity security subject to a contractual sale restriction that is executed or modified on or after the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2022-03 on the financial statements.

Advisory Fee, Administration Fee, Related Party Transactions and Other

Multi-Manager provides administrative and investor services to the Company for which it is paid a fee by the Company computed at the annual rate of 1.35% of Members’ Capital determined as of the start of business on the first business day of the month. It is also paid a fee by the Company for investment advisory services which is computed at the annual rate of 0.40% of Members’ Capital determined as of the start of business on the first business day of the month. Total Multi-Manager administration fees and expenses amounted to $18,512,297 and Multi-Manager advisory services fees and expenses amounted to $5,485,125 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The administration and advisory fees are computed and paid monthly in arrears to Multi-Manager.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, Oppenheimer earned $21,337 in brokerage commissions on portfolio transactions executed by it on behalf of the Company. Brokerage commissions paid by the Company are reflected in the net realized and net change in unrealized gain/(loss) on investments in securities, purchased options, foreign currency transactions, and swap contracts in the Statement of Operations within these financial statements.

Net profits or net losses of the Company for each fiscal period (monthly) are allocated among and credited to or debited against the capital accounts of Members (but not the Special Advisory Member) as of the last day of each fiscal period in accordance with Members’ respective investment percentages for the fiscal period. In addition, so long as Multi-Manager serves as the investment adviser of the Company, Multi-Manager (or an affiliate designated by Multi-Manager) is entitled to be the Special Advisory Member of the Company. Advantage Advisers Management, LLC serves as the Special Advisory Member and, in such capacity, generally is entitled to receive an incentive allocation (the “Incentive Allocation”), charged to the capital account of each Member as of the last day of each fiscal year (and as of the date of repurchase of the entire Interest of a Member), in an amount equal to 20% of the amount by

which net profits, if any, for such period exceed the positive balance in the Member’s “Loss Recovery Account,” as defined in the Company’s confidential memorandum. The Incentive Allocation is credited to the capital account of the Special Advisory Member. By the last business day of the month following the date on which an Incentive Allocation is made, the Special Advisory Member may withdraw up to 100% of the Incentive Allocation that was credited to its account with respect to the allocation period. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, no incentive was credited to the capital account of the Special Advisory Member.

Each member of the Board of Managers (each a “Manager”) who is not an “interested person” of the Company, as defined by the Act, receives an annual retainer of  $50,000 plus a fee for each meeting attended. The lead independent Manager and the chair of the audit committee of the Board of Managers each receive a supplemental retainer of  $12,500 per annum. Total Board of Managers fees and expenses amounted to $211,871 during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Managers who are “interested persons” of the Company do not receive any annual or other fee from the Company. Managers who are not “interested persons” are reimbursed by the Company for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in performing their duties.

The Custodian is responsible for maintaining custody of the Company’s cash and securities and for retaining sub-custodians to maintain custody of foreign securities held by the Company. Total custody fees and expenses amounted to $393,147 during the six months ended June 30, 2022, of which $199,292 is included in the accrued expenses in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital.

BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc. (“BNY Mellon”) serves as accounting and investor services agent to the Company and in that capacity provides certain accounting, recordkeeping and investor related services. The Company pays BNY Mellon a monthly fee for these services based on Members’ Capital determined as of the last day of each month, and reimburses BNY Mellon for certain expenses. Total BNY Mellon fees and expenses were $727,536 during the six months ended June 30, 2022, of which $339,163 is disclosed as accounting and investor services fees payable in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital.

Morgan Stanley Fund Services USA L.L.C. (“MSFS”) is engaged to provide supplemental trade reconciliation services. The Company pays MSFS a monthly fee for such services. The total fee paid to MSFS was $124,705 during the six months ended June 30, 2022, and is included in miscellaneous expense in the Statement of Operations.

Oppenheimer acts as the non-exclusive placement agent for the Company, without special compensation from the Company, and bears all costs associated with its activities as placement agent. The placement agent is entitled to charge a sales commission (placement fee) to investors of up to 3% (up to 3.1% of the amount invested) in connection with investor purchases of Interests, in its discretion. Placement fees, if any, will reduce the amount of a Member’s investment in the Company and will neither constitute an investment made by the investor in the Company nor form part of the assets of the Company. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, placement fees earned by Oppenheimer were $49,051.

Indemnifications

The Company has entered into various contracts that contain routine indemnification clauses. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Company expects the risk of loss to be remote.

5.

Securities Transactions

Aggregate purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term securities, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, were $2,679,288,851 and $3,205,362,628, respectively. Aggregate purchases and sales of securities sold, not yet purchased, excluding short-term securities, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, were $1,457,548,864 and $1,692,412,201, respectively.

At December 31, 2021, the aggregate cost for Federal income tax purposes of portfolio securities and securities sold, not yet purchased was $2,976,058,877 and $1,056,389,121, respectively.

For Federal income tax purposes, at December 31, 2021, accumulated net unrealized gain on portfolio securities and securities sold, not yet purchased was $1,441,802,504, consisting of $1,657,922,434 gross unrealized gain and $216,119,930 gross unrealized loss.

6.

Due from / to Broker

The Company’s prime brokers are Morgan Stanley & Co, Inc. (“Morgan Stanley”) and Merrill Lynch Professional Clearing Corp. (“Merrill Lynch”) (collectively the “Prime Brokers”).

Due from brokers primarily represents proceeds from securities sold, not yet purchased, net of excess cash, held at the Prime Brokers as of June 30, 2022, which serves as collateral for securities sold, not yet purchased and is restricted.

The Company has the ability to trade on margin and to borrow funds from brokers and banks for investment purposes. Trading in equity securities on margin involves an initial cash requirement representing at least 50% of the underlying security’s value with respect to transactions in U.S. markets and varying percentages with respect to transactions in foreign markets. The Act requires the Company to satisfy an asset coverage requirement of 300% of its indebtedness, including amounts borrowed, measured at the time the Company incurs any indebtedness. The Company pays interest on outstanding margin borrowings at the Fed Funds Effective rate plus 45 bps for balances less than $140 million and the Fed Funds Effective rate plus 200 bps for balances greater than $140 million. The Company pledges securities and cash as collateral for securities sold, not yet purchased, and margin borrowings (except for cash proceeds from the sale of securities sold, not yet purchased, held at the Prime Brokers), for which collateral is maintained in one or more segregated accounts held by the Custodian. As of June 30, 2022, the total value of this collateral was $1,089,276,755, comprised of pledged securities with a value of $1,085,947,481 which are included in investments in securities in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital and $3,329,274 of cash which is included in the cash and cash

equivalents in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital. Pledged securities with a value of  $946,036,662 and $139,910,819 are held at the Custodian as of such date on behalf of Morgan Stanley and Merrill Lynch, respectively. Additional cash of  $280,518,001 was held as of such date as collateral for securities sold, not yet purchased of which $272,159,328 and $8,358,673 were held at Morgan Stanley and Merrill Lynch, respectively, which are included in due from brokers in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the average daily amount of the margin borrowings was $123,069,486 and the daily weighted average annualized interest rate was 0.75%. The Company has borrowings outstanding at June 30, 2022, totaling $85,386,935, which is recorded as due to brokers in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital.

7.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk or Concentrations of Credit Risk

In the normal course of business, the Company trades various financial instruments and enters into various transactions with off-balance sheet risk. These financial instruments include options, forwards, swaps and securities sold, not yet purchased. Generally, these financial instruments (other than long options positions) represent future commitments to purchase or sell other financial instruments or to make certain payments on specific terms at specified future dates. Each of these financial instruments contains varying degrees of off-balance sheet risk whereby changes in the market value of the securities underlying the financial instruments may be in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital.

Securities sold, not yet purchased, represents obligations of the Company to deliver specified securities and thereby creates a liability on the part of the Company to purchase such securities in the future at prevailing market prices. Accordingly, these transactions involve off-balance sheet risk as the Company’s ultimate obligation to purchase of securities sold, not yet purchased may exceed the amount indicated in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital. Primarily, the Company’s investments in securities sold, not yet purchased, and amounts included in due from/due to brokers, are positions with the Prime Brokers. Accordingly, the Company has a concentration of individual counterparty credit risk with the Prime Brokers. The Company maintains cash with the Prime Brokers and pledges securities in an account at the Custodian for the benefit of the Prime Brokers to meet margin requirements as determined by the Prime Brokers. (see Note 6)

Investing in securities of foreign companies or foreign governments involves special risks which include changes in foreign currency exchange rates and the possibility of future political, regulatory and economic developments which could adversely affect the value of such securities. Moreover, securities of many foreign companies or foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and the U.S. government.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk or Concentrations of Credit Risk
(continued)

The Company has invested approximately 13.64% of Members’ Capital in equity securities, options (including both long and short) and swap contracts of Chinese companies. Political, social or economic changes in the Chinese market, as well as factors affecting international trade and finance (including the imposition by the U.S. of tariffs on Chinese goods), may have a greater impact on the value of the Company’s portfolio due to this concentration of investment in Chinese companies than would be the case absent of such concentration.

The Company may enter into forward contracts to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risk for its foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities due to adverse foreign currency fluctuations against the U.S. Dollar.

Forward currency transactions are contracts or agreements for delayed delivery of specific currencies in which the seller agrees to make delivery at a specified future date of specified amount of a currency. Risks associated with these transactions are the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their respective contracts and movements in fair value and exchange rates. Forward contracts are traded over-the-counter, and thus are subject to counterparty risk and can be illiquid. The fair value of forward contracts is obtained by applying exchange rates to notional amounts stated in the applicable contract. The gross unrealized gain is reported as an asset in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital and the gross unrealized loss is reported as a liability in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital. As of June 30, 2022, the Company did not hold forward contracts.

In some cases, the Company uses total return swaps to obtain long or short investment exposure in lieu of directly purchasing or selling an equity security. A swap is a contract under which two parties agree to make payments to each other based on changes in specified interest rates, in a specified index or in the value of a specified security or other instrument, applied to a stated, or “notional”, amount. Swaps generally can be classified as interest rate swaps, currency swaps, commodity swaps or equity swaps (which can also include contracts for difference), depending on the type of index or instrument used to calculate the payments. Such swaps increase or decrease the Company’s investment exposure to the particular interest rate, currency, commodity or equity involved. The Company determines the value of swaps based on the value of the securities or other assets to which the swaps relate as determined using the Company’s valuation procedures that are outlined in Note 2b. As of June 30, 2022, the counterparty for all of the total return swaps is Morgan Stanley. Any income earned from the swaps’ underlying instruments (i.e., dividends and interest) will be paid proportionately upon the unwinding of the swap or at its maturity. The change in value of a swap, including any amounts of financing interest and income earned from the underlying instrument but not yet paid, is reported as a net change in unrealized gains or losses in the Statement of Operations. Unrealized gains on swap contracts are reported as an asset and unrealized losses on swap contracts are reported as a liability in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital. A realized gain or loss is recorded upon payment or receipt of a periodic payment or termination of a swap contract. The

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk or Concentrations of Credit Risk
(continued)

net realized gain/(loss) on swap contracts is reflected in the Statement of Operations within these financial statements.

Swap contracts entered into by the Company require the calculation of the obligations of the parties to the agreements on a “net basis.” Consequently, current obligations (or rights) under a swap contract generally will be equal to only the net amount to be paid or received under the contract based on the relative payment obligations of each party (the “net amount”).

Certain equity swaps in which the Company engages have the effect of providing economic leveraging of the Company’s assets. Such leverage can be significant. As such, the impact of an adverse change in the value of securities subject to swaps may result in losses to the Company that are greater than the nominal value of the swap as shown on the Company’s financial statements.

When the Company enters into swaps, it is subject to the market risk associated with changes in the value of the underlying investment or instrument, as well as exposure to credit risk associated with counterparty non-performance. The Company is exposed to significant concentration of credit risk as the counterparty to all of the Company’s swap contracts is Morgan Stanley, one of the Prime Brokers. The risk of loss with respect to swaps is limited to the net amount of payments that the Company is contractually obligated to make. If the counterparty to a swap contract defaults on its obligation to the Company, the Company’s risk of loss consists of the net amount of payments that the Company contractually is entitled to receive from the counterparty, which may be different than the amounts recorded in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital. The Company considers the creditworthiness of its counterparties and maintains trading relationships with well established counterparties to minimize potential credit risk.

The unrealized gain/(loss) amount presented in the Schedule of Swap Contracts, rather than the notional amount, represents the approximate future cash to be received or paid (i.e., the fair value) on each swap contract, respectively, as of June 30, 2022. The net change in unrealized gain/(loss) on swap contracts is reflected in the Statement of Operations within these financial statements.

Total return swap agreements contain provisions that require the Company to maintain a predetermined level of Members’ Capital and/or provide limits regarding decline in the Company’s Members’ Capital over one month, three months and twelve month periods. If the Company were to violate such provisions, the counterparty to a total return swap could terminate it and request immediate payment or demand increased collateral for the net obligation owed by the Company to the counterparty. Further, the agreements state that, if the authority of Multi-Manager or Alkeon is terminated and an acceptable successor is not appointed, the swaps will terminate.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk or Concentrations of Credit Risk
(continued)

As of June 30, 2022, $135,876,637 was posted by the Company as collateral related to its total return swaps. This amount is included in the cash and cash equivalents in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital within these financial statements and is restricted.

The Company may purchase put and call options on securities and use other derivative instruments in order to gain exposure to or protect against changes in the markets or the prices of securities. The risk associated with purchasing an option is that the Company pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. Additionally, the Company bears the risk of loss of premium and change in market value should the counterparty not perform under the contract. Put and call options purchased are accounted for in the same manner as investment securities.

The Company may also write (sell) put and call options on securities and use other derivative instruments in order to gain exposure to or protect against changes in the markets or the price of a security. Option contracts serve as components of the Company’s investment strategy and are utilized to structure investments with the goal of enhancing the performance of the Company.

When the Company writes an option, the premium received by the Company is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the option written. If a written call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether the Company has realized a gain or loss. If a written put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Company. In writing an option, the Company bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security or index underlying the option. Exercise by a counterparty of an option written by the Company could require the Company to sell or buy a security at a price different from its current market price.

The Company follows authoritative guidance on disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. Authoritative guidance requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. All accounting policies and disclosures have been made in accordance with authoritative guidance and are incorporated for the current period as part of the disclosures within this note.

Multi-Manager believes the average quarterly notional amount shown in the table below is the most relevant measure of derivatives activity and is indicative of the Company’s volume of derivatives activity during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Other Risks

The full impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of this report. As such it is uncertain as to the full magnitude that the pandemic will have on the Company's financial condition. The extent of the impact on the financial performance of the Company will depend on future developments, including (i) the duration and spread of the outbreak, (ii) governmental restrictions and advisories, (iii) the effects on the financial markets, and (iv) the effects on the economy overall, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. If the financial performance of the Company’s investments is impacted because of these factors for an extended period, the performance of the Company may be adversely affected.

Other Risks (continued)

Additionally, in February 2022, Russia commenced a military attack on Ukraine which has led to various countries, including the US, imposing economic sanctions on certain Russian individuals and entities. The current political and financial uncertainty regarding the Russia-Ukraine conflict may have adverse effects on market volatility and global economic growth as well as the markets for certain securities and commodities, such as oil and natural gas, among other sectors. The duration of the conflict, potential for escalation and ultimate effects on the Company cannot currently be predicted.

Balance Sheet Offsetting

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into swaps that are governed by an agreement with Morgan Stanley. The agreement allows the Company and Morgan Stanley, as counterparty, to make net payments in respect of all transactions in the same currency, settling on the same date. The Company posts cash as collateral with the Custodian to secure the Company’s obligations to the counterparty. Such cash is held by the Custodian in a segregated account and its use is restricted. (see Note 6).

In the event that the Company fails to post collateral or to comply with any restrictions or provisions of a swap contract, the counterparty has the right to set-off any amounts payable by the Company with respect to any obligations against any posted collateral or the cash equivalent of any posted collateral. Further, the counterparty has the right to liquidate, sell, pledge, re-hypothecate, or dispose such posted collateral to satisfy any outstanding obligations.

The table below presents the swaps that are set-off, if any, as well as collateral delivered, related to those swaps. The Company presents all swaps as gross unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital.

Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement

At a meeting held on March 9, 2022, the Board of Managers of the Company (the “Board”) approved the renewal of the Company’s investment advisory agreement with Advantage Advisers Multi-Manager, L.L.C (the “Adviser”) for an additional annual period. The meeting was held by videoconference in view of health risks that would have been associated with holding an in-person meeting during the COVID-19 situation and in reliance an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) providing, subject to certain conditions, exemptions from certain Investment Company Act sections and rules requiring that votes of the Board be cast in-person.

In approving the renewal of the investment advisory agreement, the Board, including each of the Managers who are not “interested persons,” as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended, of the Company (the “Independent Managers”), considered various matters at its meeting, at a separate meeting of the Independent Managers held prior to the meeting on March 9, 2022, during an executive session of the Independent Managers and over the past twelve months, including: (i) the nature, scope and quality of the services provided to the Company by the Adviser; (ii) the investment performance of the Company relative to comparable funds; (iii) the advisory fees and other fees and expenses of the Company (including fee information for comparable funds) and the estimated profitability to the Adviser of its relationship with the Company; (iv) the extent to which economies of scale in costs of providing services may be realized by the Adviser as the assets of the Company grow; and (v) whether the advisory fee adequately reflects any such economies of scale for the benefit of investors. The Board also approved the renewal of the administrative services agreement between the Company and the Adviser.

In considering the nature, scope and quality of services that the Adviser provides to the Company, the Board reviewed presentations from management relating to staffing levels, turnover in the personnel of the Adviser’s managing member, management and the organizational structure of the various affiliates and business units of Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. (“Oppenheimer”) providing services to the Company. At

Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (continued)

its meeting, the Board also reviewed with management the investment management oversight, compliance, regulatory, risk management, administration and accounting-related services provided by the Adviser and the investor-related services provided by Oppenheimer and reviewed the costs associated with providing these services.

The Board also considered various other matters, including: Oppenheimer’s commitment to the advisory business, including the alternative investment advisory business, and its platform of alternative investment product offerings; the appropriateness of the Adviser’s staffing levels and the commitment of resources to fund accounting and administration, shareholder services and regulatory compliance; regulatory matters relating to the Adviser and its affiliates; and the Adviser’s oversight of third party service providers.

The Board also reviewed materials relating to the Company’s investment performance. It noted that the Independent Managers had engaged and would continue to engage in discussions with management regarding the Company’s performance in light of the Company’s one-year performance, and further noted that the Company’s performance over longer time periods has been strong. The Board concluded that the Company has been provided with high quality investment advice over a period of many years as demonstrated by the Company’s investment performance since its inception. The Board also evaluated the investment performance of the Company relative to the investment performance of other similar funds managed by Alkeon Capital Management L.L.C. (“Alkeon”). The Board found the Company’s performance to be comparable to the performance of those funds.

The Board also considered the fees payable to the Adviser under the investment advisory agreement and administrative services agreement as well as the current and historical expense ratios of the Company. It concluded that the asset-based fees paid to the Adviser are generally higher than those of the private investment funds in the performance peer group, but noted that the Company is a registered fund and that its fees are similar to those of registered funds considered as peers for fee and expense comparison purposes (albeit at the high end of the range). The Board also noted that the overall fee structure for the Company is similar to the fee structures of other Alkeon managed funds, including another registered fund with an investment program similar to that of the Company and a number of Alkeon’s private investment funds, and that unlike certain peer group funds, the Company does not pay any fees for distribution or shareholder servicing. In addition, the Board considered revenues attributable to the Company received by the Adviser and its affiliates (including fees received for investment advisory and administrative services and the performance-based incentive allocation pursuant to which 20% of the Company’s net profits otherwise allocable to each Member’s capital account is allocated to an affiliate of the Adviser) and the costs incurred by the Adviser in providing services to the Company, as well as data regarding the Adviser’s financial condition, compensation and profitability. The Board noted that, although the Company does not pay a distribution fee to Oppenheimer, Oppenheimer may charge placement fees to investors and that Oppenheimer compensates its financial advisors for providing investor services related to the Company.

At the Board’s meeting, the Adviser reviewed the methodology used to estimate the Adviser’s costs and profits relating to the Company. It was noted that the payments made by Oppenheimer to its financial

III.

Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (continued)

advisors were not taken into consideration in estimating the Adviser’s profitability. The Board also considered the indirect benefits received by the Adviser and its affiliates attributable to their relationships with the Company, and it was determined that, although the value of such benefits could not be readily quantified or assessed, any such benefits were not material or inappropriate.

Based on its review of information relating to the Company’s fees and the profitability of the Adviser, the Board concluded that the fees payable by the Company under the investment advisory agreement and administrative services agreement bear reasonable relationships to the services provided by the Adviser.

With respect to whether the Company benefits from economies of scale in costs associated with services provided to the Company, the Board recognized that economies of scale may be realized, particularly as the assets of the Company increase, and determined that it would continue to consider potential material economies of scale. It also concluded that, in light of the nature, quality and scope of the services provided by the Adviser, the costs of those services and the fees paid by similar funds, the estimated profitability to the Adviser from the Company is not so disproportionately large that it bears no reasonable relationship to the services provided.

Based on its review, the Board concluded that the Company benefits from the services provided by the Adviser, including the administrative services and compliance infrastructure provided by the Adviser. The Board noted its overall satisfaction with the nature, scope and quality of services provided by the Adviser and concluded that the Company was receiving all required services from the Adviser under its agreements with the Company, and that these services were of appropriate quality.

No single factor was determinative to the conclusions of the Board. Based on the considerations described above, and such other matters as were deemed relevant, the following conclusions and determinations were made by the Board, including each of the Independent Managers:

1.

the nature, scope and quality of the services provided by the Adviser were adequate and appropriate;

2.

approval of the fees received by the Adviser is supported by comparative fee information showing the advisory fees charged to similar investment vehicles receiving similar services, the benefits to be derived by the Adviser from its relationship with the Company, and the nature, scope and quality of services rendered to the Company;

3.

based on consideration of all relevant factors, a reduction in advisory fees to reflect a sharing in the benefit of economies of scale in the costs of providing services to the Company is not currently warranted; and

4.

the approval of the continuances of the Company’s investment advisory agreement and administrative services agreement for an additional annual period is in the best interests of the Company.

IV. Approval of Sub-Advisory Agreement

At a meeting held on March 9, 2022, the Board approved the renewal for an additional annual period of the sub-investment advisory agreement between the Adviser and Alkeon (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”), pursuant to which Alkeon is retained to manage the investment portfolio of the Company. The meeting was held by videoconference in view of health risks that would have been associated with holding an in-person meeting during the COVID-19 situation and in reliance on an exemptive order issued by the SEC providing, subject to certain conditions, exemptions from certain Investment Company Act sections and rules requiring that votes of the Board be cast in-person.

In approving the renewal of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board, including each of the Independent Managers considered various matters at its meeting, at a separate meeting of the Independent Managers held prior to the meeting on March 9, 2022, during an executive session of the Independent Managers and over the past twelve months, including: (i) the nature, scope and quality of the services provided to the Company by Alkeon; (ii) the research and portfolio management capabilities of Alkeon and personnel of Alkeon responsible for providing services to the Company; (iii) the appropriateness of Alkeon staffing levels; (iv) regulatory matters relating to Alkeon; and (v) other matters, including the investment performance of the Company, the fees and other revenues received by Alkeon attributable to its relationship with the Company and the services Alkeon provides (including revenues Alkeon receives as a non-managing member of the Adviser), the estimated profitability to Alkeon attributable to its relationship with the Company, and whether Alkeon had realized any economies of scale in its costs of providing services to the Company.

In its deliberations, the Board considered the fact that the Independent Managers had engaged and would continue to engage in discussions with management regarding the Company’s performance in light of the Company’s one-year performance, and the fact that the Company’s performance over longer time periods has been strong. The Board further considered that the Company has been provided with high quality investment advice over a period of many years, as demonstrated by the historic investment performance of the Company, which averaged 12.20% annually for the period from inception of the Company in May 1999 through December 2021, which significantly exceeds the returns of relevant indices during that period. The Board also evaluated the investment performance of the Company relative to the investment performance of other similar investment funds managed by Alkeon. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the Company benefits from the services provided by Alkeon, including research and portfolio management services. The Board noted its overall satisfaction with the nature, scope and quality of services provided by Alkeon and concluded that the Company was receiving all required services from Alkeon under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, and that these services were of appropriate quality. The indirect benefits received by Alkeon attributable to its relationship with the Company were also considered, and it was determined that, although the value of such benefits could not be readily quantified or assessed, any such benefits were not material or inappropriate.

With respect to the fees payable under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board noted that, although the Company does not pay a fee to Alkeon under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Company pays an advisory fee computed at the annual rate of 0.40% of the Company’s net assets to the Adviser pursuant to its investment advisory agreement with the Adviser, out of which a fee computed at the annual rate of 0.30% of the Company’s net assets is paid to Alkeon pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement. In addition, the Board noted that each Member’s capital account is subject to a performance-based

-55-

Advantage Advisers Xanthus Fund, L.L.C.
 
Supplemental Information (Unaudited) (concluded)

incentive allocation pursuant to which 20% of the Company’s net profits otherwise allocable to the Member are allocated to an affiliate of the Adviser, and that (through its ownership of interests in the Adviser and this affiliate) Alkeon shares in the revenues of the Adviser and its affiliate attributable to the Company.

As previously noted with respect to the continuances of the Company’s agreements with the Adviser, the Board concluded that the asset-based fees paid to the Adviser are generally higher than those of the private investment funds in the performance peer group, but noted that the Company is a registered fund and that its fees are similar to those of other registered funds considered as peers for fee and expense comparison purposes (albeit at the high end of the range). The Board also noted that the overall fee structure for the Company is similar to the fee structures of other Alkeon managed funds, including another registered fund with an investment program similar to that of the Company and a number of Alkeon’s private investment funds.

Consideration was also given to the costs of the services provided by Alkeon and an estimate of the profits that are realized by Alkeon from its relationship with the Company (including the fees it is paid under the Sub-Advisory Agreement and its share of the revenues of the Adviser and the Adviser’s affiliate). The extent to which economies of scale in costs of providing services would be realized by Alkeon as the Company grows and whether the fee payable to Alkeon pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement adequately reflects these economies of scale for the benefit of Members were also considered. The Board determined that, in light of the nature, quality and scope of services provided by Alkeon, the costs of those services and the fees paid by similar funds, the estimated profitability of Alkeon is not so disproportionately large that it bears no reasonable relationship to the services that it provides.

Based upon consideration of these matters, the Board concluded that it would be in the best interest of the Company to approve the renewal of the Sub-Advisory Agreement.

No single factor was determinative to the conclusions of the Board. Based on the considerations described above, and such other matters as were deemed relevant, the following conclusions and determinations were made by the Board, including each of the Independent Managers:

1.

the nature, scope and quality of the services provided by Alkeon were adequate and appropriate;

2.

approval of the fees received by Alkeon is supported by comparative fee information showing the advisory fees charged to similar investment vehicles receiving similar services, including other funds managed by Alkeon, the benefits to be derived by Alkeon from its relationship with the Company and the nature, scope and quality of services rendered to the Company;

3.

based on consideration of all relevant factors, a reduction in advisory fees to reflect a sharing in the benefit of economies of scale in the costs of providing services to the Company is not currently warranted; and

4.

the approval of the continuance of the Sub-Advisory Agreement for an additional annual period is in the best interests of the Company.
