have the right to receive any dividends from, or the proceeds from the

any ownership associated with such rights.

Item 6. Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person
The Managed Portfolios, set forth in Item 4 above, have the right to
receive all dividends from, and the proceeds from the sale of, the
securities held in their respective accounts.
The interest of one person, Janus Henderson Biotech Innovation Master
Fund Ltd, exempt from registration as an investment company per section
3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, in Arca Biopharma Common
Stock amounted to 1,482,535 shares or 10.2% of the total outstanding

with the purpose of changing or influencing control of the Issuer.

By signing below I certify that, to the best of my knowledge and
belief, the securities referred to above were acquired in the ordinary
course of business and were not acquired for the purpose of and do not
have the effect of changing or influencing the control of the issuer of
such securities and were not acquired in connection with or as a
participant in any transaction having such purposes or effect, other
