NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the financial period ended 30 April 2021

1.   Establishment and Organisation
     Chiron Funds ICAV (the “ICAV”) is an Irish collective asset-management vehicle constituted as an umbrella
     fund with segregated liability between sub-funds. The ICAV is authorised by the Central Bank as an
     Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities (“UCITS”). The ICAV was incorporated
     on 18 October 2016.
     The ICAV is authorised by the Central Bank of Ireland (the "Central Bank") pursuant to the European
     Communities (Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities) Regulations 2011 (as
     amended).
     The ICAV has established Chiron Global Opportunities Fund (the “Fund”).The ICAV launched on 27 March
     2017. As at 30 April 2021 and 31 October 2020, this was the only sub-fund in existence. All figures
     disclosed relate to the activities of Fund.
     Investment Objective
     The primary objective of the Fund is to seek to maximise total returns from its investments.
2.   Principal Accounting Policies
     Basis of Preparation

     The ICAV’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting
     Standards applicable to interim financial reporting under International Accounting Standard 34 (“IAS 34”),
     as adopted by the European Union (“EU”), the interpretations adopted by the International Accounting
     Standards Board (“IASB”) and the ICAV Act (the “ICAV Act”). The condensed interim financial statements
     do not contain all of the information and disclosures required in the full annual financial statements and
     should be read in conjunction with the most recent annual audited financial statements for the financial
     period ended 31 October 2020, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial
     Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The accounting policies applied in these condensed interim financial
     statements are the same as those applied in the financial statements for the financial year ended 31
     October 2020.
     The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. Quantitative and qualitative information
     has been evaluated about relevant conditions and events known and reasonably knowable at the date that
     the financial statements are issued. There were no events or conditions identified that, in the opinion of the
     Board when considered in the aggregate, indicate that there could be substantial doubt about the entity’s
     ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the
     financial statements are authorised for issue.

3.   Taxation
     Under current law and practice the ICAV qualifies as an investment undertaking as defined in Section 739B
     of the Taxes Consolidation Act, 1997, as amended (the “TCA”). On that basis, it is not chargeable to Irish
     tax on its income or gains.

     However, Irish tax may arise on the occurrence of a “chargeable event”. A chargeable event includes any
     distribution payments to Shareholders or any encashment, redemption, transfer or cancellation of shares
     and any deemed disposal of shares for Irish tax purposes arising as a result of holding shares in the ICAV
     for a period of eight years or more.
     No Irish tax will arise in respect of chargeable events in respect of a Shareholder who is an Exempt Irish
     Investor (as defined in Section 739D of the TCA) or who is neither Irish resident nor ordinarily resident in
     Ireland for tax purposes at the time of the chargeable event, provided, in each case, that an appropriate
     valid declaration in accordance with Schedule 2B of the TCA is held by the ICAV and the ICAV is not in
     possession of any information which would reasonably suggest that the information contained therein is no
     longer materially correct or where the ICAV has been authorised by Irish Revenue to make gross
     payments in absence of appropriate declarations.

     Distributions, interest and capital gains (if any) received on investments made by the ICAV may be subject
     to withholding taxes imposed by the country of origin and such taxes may not be recoverable by the ICAV
     or its Shareholders.

     The initial offer periods for the Class A1 and Class I Shares other than the Launched Classes opened at
     9.00am (Irish time) on 2 February 2017 and will continue until 5.00pm (Irish time) on 27 March 2020 or
     such other dates as any one Director may determine in accordance with the requirements of the Central
     Bank. The Class X and Class Y Shares are closed to further subscriptions.

     The initial offer periods for the Class IP Shares will open at 9.00am (Irish time) on 20 December 2018 and
     will continue until 5.00pm (Irish time) on 27 March 2020 or such other dates as any one Director may
     determine in accordance with the requirements of the Central Bank.
     The Directors have closed the Class IP, Class X and Class Y Shares to further subscriptions (except for
     additional subscriptions into the Class IP Shares from existing investors in such Class and/or their
     affiliates), provided that the Directors may determine to re-open Class IP, Class X and/or Class Y Shares
     to further subscriptions at their sole discretion.
     The Directors are given authorisation to affect the issue of Shares of any Class and to create new Share
     Classes on such terms as they may from time to time determine in accordance with the Central Bank's
     requirements. A Share exchange may be affected by way of redemption of Shares of one class and a
     simultaneous subscription at the most recent NAV per Share for Shares of the other class. The general
     provisions and procedures relating to redemptions and subscriptions for Shares as set out above will apply.
     Redemption proceeds will be converted into the other currency at the rate of exchange available to the
     Administrator and the cost of conversion will be deducted from the amount applied in subscribing for
     Shares of the other class. No switching fee will apply.

                                                                   9

For the financial period ended 30 April 2021 (continued)

4.   Share Capital (continued)
     Subscription of Shares (continued)
     It should be noted that the details for each Share Class set out in the preceding table include the minimum
     initial subscription and minimum holding amounts. These amounts may be reduced or waived at the
     discretion of the Directors or Chiron Investment Management, LLC (Investment Manager), provided that
     Shareholders in the same Class shall be treated equally and fairly. No partial redemption requests may be
     received for an amount of less than the minimum holding amounts set out above and any partial
     redemption which does not satisfy this requirement shall be treated as a request by the Shareholder to
     redeem all of its Shares in the relevant Class.
     Subsequent Dealing
     Following the close of the Initial Offer Period of each Class, Shares shall be issued at the Net Asset Value
     per Share calculated at the Valuation Point and adding thereto such sum as the Directors in their absolute
     discretion may from time to time determine as an appropriate provision for Duties and Charges (including
     an Anti-Dilution Levy where there are overall net subscriptions or overall net redemptions as provided for in
     "Subscriptions" and "Redemptions" in the Prospectus).
     Subscriptions for each of the Shares must be made in the specified currency for that Share Class as
     shown in the preceding table under the column heading "Currency Denomination". No credit interest will
     accrue on subscription monies received prior to the deadline.
     Subscriptions for the Classes of Shares should be made by electronic transfer to the account as specified
     in the Application Form.
     Redemption of Shares
     Shareholders may request the Fund to redeem their Shares on and with effect from any Dealing Day at the
     Net Asset Value per Share less any applicable Duties and Charges (including an Anti-Dilution Levy where
     there are overall net redemptions as provided for in "Redemption and Transfers of Shares" in the
     Prospectus), calculated at the Valuation Point immediately preceding the relevant Dealing Day subject to
     such adjustments, if any, as may be specified including, without limitation, any adjustment required for
     exchange fees as described under "Switching between Share Classes" below, provided that no redemption
     charge will apply to a redemption of Shares unless it is part of a switch between Share Classes as detailed
     below.

     Redemption requests should be made on the Redemption Form (available from the Administrator) which
     may initially be sent by fax to the fax number stated on the Redemption Form (with the original Redemption
     Form to follow promptly by mail) to the Administrator no later than the Dealing Deadline. The
     Administrator's contact details and further details in relation to the procedure for redemption requests are
     set out in the Application Form. Subject to the foregoing, and to the receipt of the original Application Form
     and all anti-money laundering documentation and completion of all anti-money laundering checks,
     redemption proceeds will be paid by electronic transfer to the Shareholder’s account specified in the
     Application Form within 3 Business Days of the Dealing Deadline.

     The Administrator will not remit redemption proceeds if an investor has not submitted an originally signed
     Redemption Form containing valid bank details or is not considered to be compliant with all the necessary
     anti money laundering legislation and regulations. Nor will the Administrator remit any payment to a third
     party bank account.

      Redemption Gate
      If redemption applications on any given day exceed at least 10% of the Net Asset Value of the Fund, the
      Directors may at their discretion limit the number of Shares of the Fund redeemed on any Dealing Day to
      Shares representing 10% of the total Net Asset Value of the Fund on that Dealing Day. In this event, the
      Directors shall reduce pro rata any request for redemption on that Dealing Day and shall treat the
      redemption requests as if they were received on each subsequent Dealing Day until all the Shares to which
      the original request related have been redeemed. If requests for redemptions are so carried forward, the
      Administrator will inform the Shareholders affected.
      Variation of Shareholder Rights
      The rights attached to each Class (and for these purposes, reference to any Class shall include reference
      to any Class) may, whether or not the ICAV is being wound up be varied with the consent in writing of the
      holders of three-fourths of the issued Shares of that Class or with the sanction of a Special Resolution
      passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of the Shares of that Class. The provisions of the
      Instrument in relation to general meetings shall apply to every such separate general meeting except that
      the necessary quorum at any such meeting shall be two persons holding or representing by proxy at least
      one third of the issued Shares of the Class in question or, at an adjourned meeting, one person holding
      Shares of the Class in question or his proxy. Any holder of Shares representing one tenth of the Shares in
      issue of the Class in question present in person or by proxy may demand a poll. The rights attaching to any
      Class shall not be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further Shares of that Class ranking pari
      passu with Shares already in issue, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of those
      Shares.
      Voting Rights
      The Instrument provides that on a show of hands at a general meeting of the ICAV every Shareholder and
      Subscriber Shareholder present in person or by proxy shall have one vote and on a poll at a general
      meeting every Shareholder and Subscriber Shareholder shall have one vote in respect of each Share and
      Subscriber Share as the case may be, held by him; provided, however, that, in relation to a resolution
      which in the opinion of the Directors affects more than one Class or gives or may give rise to a conflict of
      interest between the Shareholders of the respective Classes, such resolution shall be deemed to have
      been duly passed, only if, in lieu of being passed at a single meeting of the Shareholders of all of those
      Classes, such resolution shall have been passed at a separate meeting of the Shareholders of each such
      Class.

5.   Fees
     Management Fee
     The Manager will be entitled to a management fee payable out of the assets of the Fund calculated and
     accruing at each Valuation Point and payable monthly in arrears at a maximum rate of 0.04% of the first
     €300 million in Net Asset Value of the Fund, 0.03% of the next €300 million in Net Asset Value of the Fund,
     0.02% of the next €400 million in Net Asset Value of the Fund and 0.01% of the Net Asset Value of the
     Fund that exceeds €1 billion, subject to an annual minimum fee of €55,000.

     The Manager will also be reimbursed out of the assets of the Fund for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
     incurred by the Manager including expenses relating to due diligence and monitoring of the Fund.

     For the financial period ended 30 April 2021 fees charged by the Manager were US$68,727 (30 April 2020:
     US$74,204). As at 30 April 2021 fees of US$11,938 (31 October 2020: US$4,486) were payable to the
     Manager.

     Investment Management Fee
     The Investment Manager will be entitled to an investment management fee payable from the assets of the
     Fund accruing at each Valuation Point and calculated by the Administrator as follows:

     (i) in relation to the Class A Shares, an investment management fee at a rate not to exceed 1.80% per
         annum of the Net Asset Value of the Fund which shall be payable monthly in arrears;

     (ii) in relation to the Class A1 Shares, an investment management fee at a rate not to exceed 1.80% per
          annum of the Net Asset Value of the Fund which shall be payable monthly in arrears;

     (iii) in relation to the Class I Shares, an investment management fee at a rate not to exceed 0.95% per
          annum of the Net Asset Value of the Fund which shall be payable monthly in arrears;

     (iv) in relation to the Class IP Shares, an investment management fee at a rate not to exceed 0.75% per
         annum of the Net Asset Value of the Fund which shall be payable monthly in arrears.

     (v) in relation to the Class X Shares, an investment management fee at a rate not to exceed 1.60% per
        annum of the Net Asset Value of the Fund which shall be payable monthly in arrears; and

     (vi) in relation to the Class Y Shares, an investment management fee at a rate not to exceed 0.75% per

                                                               14

5.   Fees (continued)

     Investment Management Fee (continued)
     The Investment Manager will also be reimbursed out of the assets of the Fund for reasonable out-of-pocket
     costs or expenses incurred by the Investment Manager on behalf of (or attributable to) the Fund. For the
     financial period ended 30 April 2021 fees charged by the Investment Manager were US$1,506,329 (30
     April 2020: US$1,993,881). As at 30 April 2021 fees of US$257,114 (31 October 2020: US$231,148) were
     payable to the Investment Manager.

     Performance Fees
     The Fund shall pay to the Investment Manager a performance fee (the "Performance Fee") in respect of
     the Class IP Shares of the Fund.

     The Performance Fee in respect of the Class IP Shares will be calculated in respect of each financial
     period of the Fund ending on 31 October in each year (each a "Calculation Period"). The first Calculation
     Period in respect of Class IP will commence on the close of the Initial Offer Period for Class IP Shares and
     will end on 31 October. Subsequent Calculation Periods will commence on 1 November and end on 31
     October of each calendar year. The Performance Fee will accrue on each Valuation Point and the accrual
     will be reflected in the Net Asset Value per Share of the relevant Class. The Hurdle Rate Adjusted Net
     Asset Value (as defined below) at the beginning of the first Calculation Period shall be the aggregate value
     of the subscriptions which have been accepted for Class IP Shares during the Initial Offer Period.

     If at the end of the relevant Calculation Period, the Net Asset Value attributable to the relevant Class
     exceeds the Hurdle Rate Adjusted Net Asset Value of such Class, a Performance Fee of 10% shall be
     chargeable on the amount by which such Net Asset Value of such Class exceeds the Hurdle Rate Adjusted
     Net Asset Value of such Class.

     The "Hurdle Rate Adjusted Net Asset Value" of a Class is the Net Asset Value of the Class as at the end of
     the last Calculation Period after which a Performance Fee was paid, increased on each Dealing Day by the
     value of any subscriptions and reduced by the value of any redemptions on each Dealing Day on a pro rata
     basis, and increased or reduced by the Hurdle Rate (as defined below) over the course of such period. For
     the avoidance of doubt, no Performance Fee will be paid for any increase in Net Asset Value relative to the
     Hurdle Rate Adjusted Net Asset Value for a Calculation Period until any prior decrease in Net Asset Value
     relative to the Hurdle Rate Adjusted Net Asset Value for a Calculation Period has been recovered.

     For the avoidance of doubt, the Performance Fee will be payable on the relative return of the relevant
     Class against the Hurdle Rate.

     The "Hurdle Rate" means the return of a blended index, which is relevant in the context of the investment
     policy of the Fund. The Hurdle Rate shall be a blended rate of the MSCI All Country World Daily Total
     Return Net Index - USD (Ticker: NDUEACWF) and the FTSE World Broad Investment-Grade Bond Index
     (Ticker: SBWAU), compounded daily and determined as follows:

     Hurdle Rate = 0.6 X MSCI All Country World Daily Total Return Net Index - USD + 0.4 X FTSE World
     Broad Investment-Grade Bond Index

     The Performance Fee is payable on the last Dealing Day in each Calculation Period, or if the relevant
     Class is terminated before the end of a Calculation Period, the Dealing Day on which the final redemption
     of Shares takes place, or in the case of Shares redeemed during a Calculation Period, the accrued
     Performance Fee in respect of those Shares will be payable within 14 calendar days of the date of
     redemption (each a "Payment Date").

For the financial period ended 30 April 2021 (continued)

5.   Fees (continued)

     Performance Fees (continued)
     The use of a Hurdle Rate Adjusted Net Asset Value ensures that Shareholders of the relevant Class will
     not be charged a Performance Fee until any previous shortfalls relative to the Hurdle Rate Adjusted Net
     Asset Value are recovered. Any underperformance against the Hurdle Rate in preceding Calculation
     Periods will be recovered before any Performance Fee becomes payable in a subsequent Calculation
     Period. For the avoidance of doubt, any Performance Fee payable in relation to a given Calculation Period
     will not be clawed back.

     MSCI All Country World Daily Total Return Net Index - USD is a market capitalization weighted index
     designed to provide a broad measure of equity-market performance throughout the world. The FTSE World
     Broad Investment-Grade Bond Index is a multi-asset, multi-currency benchmark, which provides a broad-
     based measure of the global fixed income markets. Any change to the indices relating to the Hurdle Rate
     will be disclosed in the periodic reports of the Fund.

     For the purposes of the Performance Fee calculation, the Net Asset Value shall be calculated before the
     deduction of any accrual for Performance Fee for that Calculation Period, other than Performance Fee
     accrued in relation to the Class in respect of redemptions during the Calculation Period but not yet paid.

     The Depositary shall verify the calculation of each Performance Fee annually. Where Performance Fees
     are payable in respect of the relevant Class, these will be based on net realised and net unrealised gains
     and losses as at each Payment Date. As a result, Performance Fees may be paid on unrealised gains
     which may subsequently never be realised.

     Performance fees charged for the financial period ended 30 April 2021 amounted to US$3,139,229 (30
     April 2020: US$Nil). Performance fees payable at 30 April 2021 amounted to US$3,139,229 (31 October
     2020: US$Nil).

     Administration and Transfer Agency Fees
     The Administrator will be paid out of the assets of the Fund a monthly fee not to exceed 0.03% per annum,
     exclusive of VAT, of the entire Net Asset Value of the Fund subject to a minimum annual fee of
     US$39,000, exclusive of out-of-pocket costs or expenses. The Administrator will also be reimbursed out of
     the assets of the Fund for reasonable out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by the Administrator on
     behalf of (or attributable to) the Fund.

     The fees and expenses of the Administrator will accrue at each Valuation Point and are payable monthly in
     arrears. The Administrator has agreed to repay any fees not earned if the Administration Agreement is
     terminated early.

     Administration fees charged for the financial period ended 30 April 2021 amounted to US$43,923 (30 April
     2020: US$48,217). Administration fees payable at 30 April 2021 amounted to US$15,267 (31 October
     2020: US$13,939).

     Transfer Agency fees charged for the financial period ended 30 April 2021 amounted to US$20,588 (30
     April 2020: US$48,295). Transfer Agency fees payable at 30 April 2021 amounted to US$5,331 (31
     October 2020: US$8,730).

     Depositary Fees
     The Depositary will be paid out of the assets of the Fund a fee not to exceed 0.03% per annum of the Net
     Asset Value of the Fund (exclusive of VAT, if any, thereon), exclusive of any transaction charges (plus
     VAT, if any), subject to minimum annual fees (exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses) of US$13,200 for
     oversight services and US$6,960 for depositary cash flow monitoring and reconciliation services.

     Depositary Fees (continued)
     In addition, the Depositary will be paid out of the assets of the Fund an annual safekeeping fee ranging
     from 0.005% to 1.080% per annum of the Fund's Net Asset Value depending on the custody markets in
     which the assets of the Fund is held, subject to a minimum annual fee of US$5,520 (exclusive of VAT, if
     any, thereon).

     The Depositary will also be paid out of the assets of the Fund for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
     incurred by them and for the reasonable fees and customary agent's charges paid by the Depositary to any
     sub-custodian (which shall be charged at normal commercial rates) together with value added tax, if any,
     thereon.

     The fees and expenses of the Depositary shall accrue daily and be calculated monthly based on the Net
     Asset Value of the Fund on the last Dealing Day of each calendar month and shall be payable monthly in
     arrears.

     material and portfolio reports provided that they are charged at normal commercial rates and incurred by
     the Investment Manager in the performance of its duties under the Investment Management Agreement.
     The Investment Manager may from time to time and at its sole discretion and out of its own resources
     decide to pay rebates/retrocessions out of the Investment Management Fees that it receives. All fees
     payable to the Investment Manager will be paid in the Base Currency of the Fund. The ICAV shall bear the
     cost of any Irish value added tax applicable to any amount payable to the Investment Manager.

     Director’s Remuneration
     The Directors are entitled to a fee in remuneration for their services to the Fund at a rate to be determined
     from time to time by the Directors, but so that the aggregate amount of each Directors' remuneration in any
     one year shall not exceed €50,000 or such other higher limit as the Directors may from time to time
     determine and notify to Shareholders, with Shareholders being provided with a reasonable notification
     period in advance of the change taking effect. The Directors and any alternate Directors may also be paid
     all travelling, hotel and other expenses properly incurred by them in attending and returning from meetings
     of the Directors or any other meetings in connection with the business of the ICAV.

7.   Risk Associated with Financial Instruments

     The Fund’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including other price risk, interest
     rate risk and currency risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

     The Fund is also exposed to operational risks such as settlement and custody risk. Custody risk is the risk
     of loss of financial assets and liabilities held in custody occasioned by the insolvency or negligence of the
     Depositary. Although an appropriate legal framework is in place that reduces the risk of loss of value of the
     financial assets and liabilities held by the Depositary, in the event of failure, the ability of the Depositary to
     transfer the financial assets and liabilities might be impaired.
     The following exchange rates were used to translate assets and liabilities into US$:

8.   Fair Value Measurements

     IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement, requires a fair value hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value
     that classify investments according to how observable the inputs are. Observable inputs are those that
     market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources
     independent of the Fund. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s assumptions, made in good faith, about
     the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best
     information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy is categorised into three levels based
     on the inputs as follows:

     Level 1 - Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
     Level 2 - Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs other than quoted
     prices for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from
     prices); and
     Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value
     measurement.
     There were no transfers between Levels during the financial period ended 30 April 2021 and 31 October
     2020.
