EXPLANATORY NOTE

This is a post qualification amendment to an offering statement on Form 1-A originally filed by Masterworks Vault 3, LLC (the “Company”) on June 27, 2023 and originally qualified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on July 28, 2023. The purpose of this post-qualification amendment is to add to the offering circular contained within the offering statement the offering of additional series of the Company and update certain other information in the offering circular.

An offering statement pursuant to Regulation A relating to these securities has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Information contained in this preliminary offering circular is subject to completion or amendment. To the extent not already qualified under Regulation A, these securities may not be sold nor may offers to buy be accepted before the offering statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is qualified. This preliminary offering circular shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor may there be any sales of these securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful before registration or qualification under the laws of any such state. We may elect to satisfy our obligation to deliver a final offering circular by sending you a notice within two business days after the completion of our sale to you that contains the URL where the final offering circular or the offering statement in which such final offering circular was filed may be obtained.

MASTERWORKS VAULT 3, LLC

Preliminary Offering Circular

August 7, 2026

Subject to Completion

Offering of Series Class A ordinary shares

Representing Series Class A Limited Liability Company Interests

Masterworks Vault 3, LLC, which we refer to as “we,” “us,” “our,” “Masterworks Vault 3” or the “Company,” is a newly organized Delaware protected series limited liability company that has been formed to facilitate investment in individual works of art (“Artworks”) that will be beneficially owned by individual series of the Company. Each individual series will indirectly hold title to the specific Artwork that it acquires through a segregated portfolio of a Cayman Islands segregated portfolio company, Masterworks Cayman, SPC. We are offering Class A shares representing Class A limited liability company interests of each of the series of the Company in the “Series Offering Table” beginning on page iv of this Offering Circular. There is no minimum number of Class A shares or dollar amount that needs to be sold of a series as a condition of any closing of the offering of a series. If any of the Class A shares offered by a series remain unsold as of the final closing of the offering of such series, such unsold Class A shares of such series shall be issued to Masterworks, in full satisfaction of its advance and the Expense Allocation as described in this Offering Circular. Subscriptions, once received, are irrevocable by investors.

We believe that the Class A shares of a series represent an effective means for investors to gain economic exposure to the Artwork held by that series and an investment in multiple series can provide exposure to the broader Post-War and Contemporary collecting categories of The Art Market. The Class A shares of a series represent an investment solely in a particular series and, thus, indirectly in the Artwork owned by that series. Artwork will be held for an indefinite period and may be sold at any time following the final closing of the offering of such series. For details on the capital structure that will exist following a series offering, see the section entitled “Summary – Organizational and Capital Structure” of this Offering Circular.

Our series offerings are conducted as a continuous offering pursuant to Rule 251(d)(3) of Regulation A, meaning that while the offering of a particular series is continuous, active sales of series Class A shares may happen sporadically over the term of the offering.

There will be a separate closing, or closings, with respect to each series offering. An initial closing and each subsequent closing of a series offering will take place on the date subscriptions for the maximum number of series Class A shares have been accepted or an earlier date or dates determined by us in our sole discretion. The offering period for any series will not exceed 24 months from the qualification date of the offering statement that includes such series. We reserve the right to terminate a series offering for any reason at any time prior to the initial closing of such series offering. No securities are being offered by existing security-holders.

Each series offering is being conducted pursuant to Regulation A of Section 3(6) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for Tier 2 offerings.

Our affiliate Masterworks, LLC owns an online investment platform located at https://www.masterworks.com/ (the “Masterworks Platform”) that allows investors to acquire ownership of an interest in special purpose companies such as the Company that invest in distinct Artworks or a collection of Artworks. Once an investor establishes a user profile on the Masterworks Platform, they can browse and screen potential artwork investments, view details of an investment and sign contractual documents online.

There is currently no public trading market for the Class A shares of any series, there is currently no secondary trading of Class A shares of any series on an alternative trading system, and an active market for the Class A shares may not develop or be sustained. We do not intend to list the Class A shares of any series for trading on a national securities exchange. Shares of certain Series of the Company and of other Masterworks issuers that completed the sale of Class A shares prior to the date of this Offering Circular are listed for trading on an alternative trading system operated by North Capital Private Securities Corporation, an SEC-registered broker- dealer (“NCPS”), referred to as the “ATS,” but, in June 2026, Masterworks announced its intention to terminate its ATS arrangement with NCPS, effective on or about December 14, 2026 (“Expected Termination Date”) and we do not intend to list the Class A shares of any Series that has not completed an offering as of the date of this Offering Circular and we will not continue listing the shares of any Series after the Expected Termination Date.

Masterworks currently intends to establish a bulletin board or other alternative means of offering secondary liquidity to holders of the Shares. The proposed bulletin board or other liquidity mechanism may restrict or limit participation by investors residing in certain U.S. States or foreign jurisdictions. Unlike a stock exchange, a bulletin board will not enable matching of buy and sell orders and, accordingly, transaction volume is expected to be extremely low. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to provide an effective means of selling your Class A shares of a series or that the price at which any Class A shares of a series are sold through any such liquidity mechanism is reflective of the fair value of the Class A shares of that series or the Artwork of that series. The Shares are highly illiquid and investment in the Shares is only suitable for investors prepared to hold their investment for an extended and indefinite period of time.

No sales of Class A shares of any series will be made prior to the qualification of the Offering Statement by the SEC or the qualification by the SEC of any post-qualification amendment to the Offering Statement which contains a description of such series. All Class A shares will be offered in all jurisdictions at the same price that is set forth in this offering circular.

The Class A shares of each series are to be offered primarily through the Masterworks Platform. Neither Masterworks, LLC nor any other affiliated entity involved in the offer and sale of the Class A shares of a series is currently a member firm of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) and no person associated with us will be deemed to be a broker solely by reason of his or her participation in the sale of the Class A shares of a series.

To invest in any series offering you must represent to us that the aggregate purchase price you pay for your investment is not more than 10% of the greater of your annual income or net worth. Different rules apply to accredited investors and non-natural persons. Before making any representation that your investment does not exceed applicable thresholds, we encourage you to review Rule 251(d)(2)(i)(C) of Regulation A. For general information on investing, we encourage you to refer to www.investor.gov. We retain complete discretion to determine that subscribers are “qualified purchasers” (as defined in Regulation A under the Securities Act) in reliance on the information and representations provided to us regarding their financial situation.

An investment in the Class A shares of a series is subject to certain risks and should be made only by persons or entities able to bear the risk of and to withstand the total loss of their investment. Prospective investors should carefully consider and review the information under the heading “Risk Factors” beginning on page 15.

The SEC does not pass upon the merits of or give its approval to any securities offered or the terms of any offering, nor does it pass upon the accuracy or completeness of any offering circular or other solicitation materials. These securities are offered pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); however, the SEC has not made an independent determination that the securities offered are exempt from registration.

Periodically, we will provide an amendment or supplement to the offering circular that may add, update or change information contained in this offering circular. Any statement that we make in this offering circular will be modified or superseded by any inconsistent statement made by us in a subsequent amendment or supplement to the offering circular. The offering statement we filed with the SEC includes exhibits that provide more detailed descriptions of the matters discussed in this offering circular. You should read this offering circular and the related exhibits filed with the SEC and any amendment or supplement to the offering circular, together with additional information contained in our annual reports, semi-annual reports and other reports and information statements that we will file periodically with the SEC. See the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information” below for more details.

STATE LAW EXEMPTION AND PURCHASE RESTRICTIONS

The Class A shares of each series are being offered and sold only to “qualified purchasers” (as defined in Regulation A under the Securities Act). As Tier 2 offerings pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act, the series offerings are exempt from state law “Blue Sky” review, subject to meeting certain state filing requirements and complying with certain anti-fraud provisions, to the extent that the Class A shares of each series offered hereby are offered and sold only to “qualified purchasers”. “Qualified purchasers” include: (i) “accredited investors” under Rule 501(a) of Regulation D and (ii) all other investors so long as their investment in any of the interests of the Company (in connection with any series offered under Regulation A) does not represent more than 10% of the greater of their annual income or net worth (for natural persons), or 10% of the greater of annual revenue or net assets at fiscal year-end (for non-natural persons). Accordingly, we reserve the right to reject any investor’s subscription in whole or in part for any reason, including if we determine in our sole and absolute discretion that such investor is not a “qualified purchaser” for purposes of Regulation A.

To determine whether a potential investor is an “accredited investor” for purposes of satisfying one of the tests in the “qualified purchaser” definition, the investor must be a natural person who:

For purposes of determining whether a potential investor is a “qualified purchaser,” annual income and net worth should be calculated as provided in the “accredited investor” definition under Rule 501 of Regulation D. In particular, net worth in all cases should be calculated excluding the value of an investor’s home, home furnishings and automobiles.

SUMMARY

This summary highlights selected information contained elsewhere in this offering circular. This summary does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing in the Class A shares of a series. You should read this entire offering circular carefully, especially the risks of investing in the Class A shares of a series discussed under “Risk Factors,” before making an investment decision.

Overview

We were formed as a Delaware series limited liability company on June 14, 2023, to facilitate investment in one or multiple distinct Artworks. Masterworks will act as our agent to source Artworks and will manage all maintenance and entity-level administrative services relating to the Artwork of each series and the Company. We will not conduct any business activities except for activities relating to an investment in, maintenance, promotion and the eventual sale of the Artworks. Our strategy will be to hold Artworks for capital appreciation. We may display and promote the Artworks to enhance their value and broaden their exposure to the art-viewing public.

Masterworks seeks to acquire Artwork for each series of the Company at public auction or in a privately negotiated transaction from a gallery, private collector, private sales division of an auction house or through an art advisor acting as agent on behalf of a private collector. No closing of any series offering will occur prior to the acquisition by such series of the relevant Artwork.

We do not expect to generate any material amount of revenues or cash flow from the Artwork held by any series unless and until the Artwork of such series is sold and no profits will be realized by investors unless they are able to sell their Class A shares of the series or the Artwork of the series is sold. We will be totally reliant on Masterworks for administrative and asset management services and the payment of all ordinary and routine operating costs, including those relating to each series, our Company as a whole and the Artwork of each series.

Our Series LLC Structure

Each Artwork that we acquire will be owned by a separate series of the Company. Each series will indirectly hold title to the specific Artwork that it acquires through a segregated portfolio of Masterworks Cayman, SPC, or “Masterworks Cayman”, a Cayman Islands segregated portfolio company. We expect that each series will be regarded as a separate partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

As a Delaware series limited liability company, the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular series of the Company are segregated and enforceable only against the assets of such series under Delaware law. Similarly, as a Cayman Islands segregated portfolio company, the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing of a particular segregated portfolio of Masterworks Cayman are segregated and enforceable only against the assets of such segregated portfolio under Cayman Islands law. This means that a creditor of the Company or Masterworks Cayman would only be entitled to recover against assets attributed and credited to the specific series of the Company or segregated portfolio of Masterworks Cayman, as applicable, to which the obligation is attributed.

The Class A shares represent an investment solely in a particular series and, thus, indirectly in the Artwork beneficially owned by that series. The Class A shares do not represent a general investment in our Company or in Masterworks. We do not anticipate that any series of the Company or any segregated portfolio of Masterworks Cayman will beneficially own any material assets other than the single Artwork associated with such series or have any indebtedness or commercial obligations following the final closing of a series offering other than obligations arising pursuant to a management services agreement with Masterworks and potential contractual obligations associated with an eventual sale of the Artwork.

The Art Market

The global art market entered a recovery cycle in 2025 following a prolonged downturn. Combined public auction revenue at Christie’s, Sotheby’s and Phillips, rose approximately 15.5% year-over-year to $9.56 billion. This followed a significant contraction in 2024, when global auction revenue at the three major houses declined 26% to $8.27 billion as fewer major estate consignments came to market and sellers shifted toward private sales.

In general, the global art market is influenced by the overall strength and stability of the global economy, geopolitical conditions, capital markets and world events, all of which may affect the willingness of potential buyers and sellers to purchase and sell art. While the global art market is large, its exact size is unknown and statistical data is inconsistent. Much of the uncertainty stems from differing estimates of the size of the private dealer and gallery market, which is based on survey data, but disparities also exist in reported auction sales.

The following are general observations based on a repeat-sales index of historical art market prices computed based on a value weighted-basis and focused on the Post-War & Contemporary Art category, as developed by Masterworks:

Artwork and Artist Metrics

Management Services

Management services are provided pursuant to a management services agreement among us and Masterworks, to be entered into prior to the initial closing of the initial series offerings, which incorporates a “unitary” fee structure. This means that unlike a typical investment entity in which, in addition to paying management fees, investors indirectly bear all operating costs and expenses which are charged to the investment entity, in our structure, the Administrator will pay all of our ordinary ongoing operating costs and expenses and manage all management services relating to our business, each series and the Artwork of each series in exchange for preferred equity interests in Masterworks Cayman issued at a rate of 1.5% of the total equity interests of each segregated portfolio of Masterworks Cayman outstanding, per annum, commencing on the earliest closing date on which the applicable series offering is fully subscribed and at least 95% of the subscription proceeds for such offering have been received by the Company and continuing until the sale of the Artwork of a series. These issuances by Masterworks Cayman will effectively dilute the ownership interest of Class A shareholders in the Artwork at a rate of 1.5% per annum. Moreover, the fact that Masterworks will receive preferred equity interests means that Masterworks management and administrative fees and costs will be paid in preference to distributions to holders of Class A shares. There is no overall limit to the amount of preferred equity interests in Masterworks Cayman that may be issued to pay these fees and costs. Each series of the Company or segregated portfolio of Masterworks Cayman, as applicable, will remain obligated to reimburse the Administrator for any extraordinary or non-routine costs, payments and expenses, if any, in cash from the proceeds of a sale of the Artwork of such series, and Masterworks may also charge additional transactional fees upon a private sale of Artwork in certain circumstances.

Artwork is sourced through Masterworks dedicated acquisitions team, composed of individuals with significant expertise in the art market, valuation and execution of art transactions. This team is supported by Masterworks research, analytics and an extensive art market database. Artwork we acquire for each series offering will be described in the section of this offering circular entitled “The Series Artwork.”

Our acquisition of title to Artwork and physical possession of Artwork for each series will occur contemporaneously with or before the initial closing of the applicable series offering. We intend to use a portion of the proceeds from the initial closing of the series offerings to acquire the Artworks, and if and to the extent such proceeds are less than the purchase price, Masterworks will advance any additional funds required to consummate the acquisitions. The remaining net proceeds of the series offerings, together with any unsold Class A shares of such series, if any, will be used to repay the Masterworks advance and pay Masterworks the Expense Allocation as described in the section “Management Compensation.” The Masterworks advance will accrue interest equal to the amount of any interest earned on subscription funds, if any, prior to a closing.

We, in our sole and absolute discretion, may decide to sell the Artwork of a series at any time and in any manner. We determine to sell Artwork based on a number of factors, including our perception of the fair value of the Artwork relative to its proposed selling price, our perspective on the current state and future direction of the applicable artist market and the art market more generally, the absolute net returns we can deliver to shareholders, the length of our holding period and other factors. Although we expect our holding period will typically be for three- to ten-years, we may elect to hold the Artwork of a series for a longer period or sell the Artwork of a series at any time due to certain circumstances. When an Artwork is sold, the net proceeds of the sale will be distributed to holders of Class A shares of the applicable series in accordance with the priorities set forth in the operating agreement and the series will be dissolved. There is no guarantee that any sale of the Artwork of a series will be successful, or if successful, that the net proceeds realized by Class A shareholders from such transactions will be reflective of the estimated fair market value of the shares at such time.

Organizational and Capital Structure

The following diagram reflects Masterworks organizational structure and the material commercial relationships between us and Masterworks that will exist following a series offering:

*All entities are Delaware limited liability companies, except the Company, which is a Delaware series limited liability company and Masterworks Cayman, SPC, which is a Cayman Islands segregated portfolio company.

Summary of Risks

An investment in the Class A shares of any series includes a number of risks and uncertainties which are described in the “Risk Factors” section of this offering circular, including the following:

Company Information

We are a manager-managed series limited liability company, managed by the Board of Managers. Our principal office is located at 1 World Trade Center, 57^th Floor, New York, New York 10007 and our phone number is (203) 518-5172. Our corporate website address is the website address of Masterworks at www.masterworks.com. Information contained on, or accessible through, the website is not a part of, and is not incorporated by reference into, this offering circular.

THE OFFERING

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

The aggregate offering size of a series equals the sum of (a) the estimated purchase price that Masterworks anticipates paying for the Artwork plus (b) approximately 11% of such amount (approximately 10% of the maximum aggregate offering amount), as an upfront payment, or “Expense Allocation” payable to Masterworks. The initial offering price of $20.00 per Class A share of each series was arbitrarily determined by Masterworks.

We believe that based on the arms-length ultimate purchase price of each Artwork of a series, historical appreciation rates of similar artworks by the same artist of such Artwork and other factors, the per share offering price of each series will constitute a reasonable estimate at or below the fair value of the Class A shares of such series as of the date such series is added to the Offering Circular.

SERIES DISTRIBUTION POLICY

As of August 7, 2026, no series has made distributions on the Class A shares of such series since our formation and we do not anticipate making distributions in the foreseeable future on any Class A shares, unless and until the Artwork held by such series is sold, at which point we will pay any expenses for which we are responsible and make a distribution to the holders of the Class A shares of such series in accordance with our operating agreement. There can be no assurance as to the timing of a distribution or that we will pay a distribution at all. There are no contractual restrictions on the ability of a series to make distributions.

RISK FACTORS

The purchase of the Class A shares of a series offered hereby involves risk. Each prospective investor should consult his, her or its own counsel, accountant and other advisors as to legal, tax, business, financial and related aspects of an investment in the securities offered hereby. Prospective investors should carefully consider the following specific risk factors, in addition to the other information set forth in this offering circular, before purchasing the securities offered hereby.

Risks Related to our Business Model

Each series will invest in a unique artwork and whether or not a series will deliver capital appreciation to investors is largely dependent on the art market, which we cannot control.

We cannot make any assurance that our business model will be successful. Our operations will be dedicated to acquiring and maintaining Artworks held by our series and facilitating the ultimate sale of Artworks. The ability of any series to deliver capital appreciation will depend to a large extent on economic conditions, the art market in general and the market for works produced by the specific artist, which are factors that are beyond our control. The value of an Artwork may decline after a series purchases it.

An investment in a series offering constitutes only an investment in that series and not in our Company or directly in any Artwork.

An investor in a series offering will acquire an ownership interest in the series related to that offering and not, for the avoidance of doubt, in (i) our Company, (ii) any other series, (iii) Masterworks, or (iv) directly in an Artwork associated with the series or any Artwork owned by any other series. This results in limited voting rights of the investor, including rights solely related to a particular series, and are further limited by the operating agreement, described further herein. Investors will have voting rights only with respect to certain matters, primarily relating to amendments to the operating agreement that would adversely change the rights of the interest holders and removal of a member of the Board of Managers of the Company for “cause.” Masterworks thus retains significant control over the management of the Company, each series and the Artworks. Furthermore, because the interests in a series do not constitute an investment in the Company as a whole, holders of the interests in a series are not expected to receive any economic benefit from the assets of any other series. In addition, the economic interest of a holder of Class A shares in a series reflects an investment in an Artwork, but also an interest in our corporate and governance structure and our management arrangement with Masterworks. Accordingly, ownership of Class A shares is not identical to owning a direct undivided interest in an Artwork.

Each of our company’s series will hold an interest in a single Artwork, a non-diversified investment.

Each of our series will own a single Artwork and not invest in any other artwork or assets or conduct any other operations that could generate income. Such lack of diversification creates a concentration risk that may make an investment in the Class A shares of a single series riskier than an investment in the Class A shares of multiple series or a diversified pool of assets or a business with more varied operations. Aggregate returns realized by investors are expected to correlate to the change in value of the Artwork, which may not correlate to changes in the overall art market or any segment of the art market.

We do not expect any series to generate any material amount of revenues and rely on the Administrator to fund our operations.

We do not expect any series to generate any material amount of revenues or cash flow unless and until an Artwork held by a series is sold. No profits can be realized by the series’ investors unless the Artwork is sold for more than the series acquires it and there are sufficient funds to effectuate a distribution to the shareholders of such series after paying the applicable costs, fees and expenses, or the investors are able to sell their Class A shares of the series. Accordingly, we will be completely reliant on Masterworks to fund our operations.

The Artwork of a series may be sold at a loss or at a price that results in a distribution that is below the purchase price of the Class A shares of such series, or no distribution at all.

Any sale of the Artwork of a series could be effected at an inopportune time, at a loss and or at a price that would result in a distribution of cash that is less than the price paid by investors to purchase the Class A shares of such series. We intend to hold the Artwork of each series for an extended period of time and may choose to sell the Artwork of a series opportunistically if market conditions are favorable, which we believe is necessary to achieve optimal returns. In the future, we may sell an Artwork at a loss if we believe that such a transaction would reduce future losses or if it would be necessary to satisfy our fiduciary obligations to our shareholders. Lastly, circumstances may arise that may compel us to sell the Artwork of a series at an inopportune time and potentially at a loss, such as if we face litigation, regulatory challenges or if Masterworks ceases to exist. There can be no assurance that the Class A shares of such series can ever be resold or that the Artwork of a series can ever be sold or that any sale would occur at a price that would result in a distribution of more than $20.00 per Class A share of a series.

The timing and potential price of a sale of the Artwork of a series are impossible to predict, so investors need to be prepared to own the Class A shares of such series for an uncertain or even indefinite period of time.

We intend to hold the Artwork of a series for an indefinite period, although the Artwork of such series will be perpetually available for sale following the series offering and we will evaluate any reasonable third party offers to acquire the Artwork of such series. In addition, the occurrence of certain events may compel us to sell the Artwork of a series. Accordingly, a risk of investing in the Class A shares of a series is the unpredictability of the timing of a sale of the Artwork of such series and the unpredictability of funds being available for cash distribution and investors should be prepared for both the possibility that they will not receive a cash distribution for many years, if ever, and the contrary possibility that they may receive a cash distribution at any time following the completion of the series offering. An investment in the Class A shares of a series is unsuitable for investors that are not prepared to hold their Class A shares of such series for an indefinite period of time, as there can be no assurance that the Class A shares of such series can ever be resold or that the Artwork of such series can be sold within any specific timeframe or at all.

Our business model involves certain costs, some of which are to be paid for through the issuance of equity which will have a dilutive effect on the holders of the Class A shares.

There are various services required to administer our business and maintain the Artwork of a series. Pursuant to a management services agreement among us, Masterworks Cayman and the Administrator to be entered into prior to the initial closing of the initial series offerings, the Administrator will manage all entity-level and asset management services relating to our business and the maintenance of the Artwork of each series. The Administrator will pay all ordinary and necessary costs and expenses associated with the administration of our business and maintenance of the Artwork of each series. Because we do not expect to maintain cash reserves or generate any cash flow, we will be completely reliant on the Administrator to fund our operations. In exchange for these services and incurring these costs and expenses, the Administrator will receive SPC Preferred shares of a segregated portfolio of Masterworks Cayman issued at a rate of 1.5% of the total SPC shares of such segregated portfolio of Masterworks Cayman outstanding which holds the Artwork of an applicable series, after giving effect to such issuance, per annum. These SPC Preferred shares have no voting rights, but have a $20.00 per share liquidation preference over SPC Ordinary shares which are held by each series, which means Masterworks’ management fees will be paid in priority to distributions to Class A shareholders. This preference means that Masterworks management fees will be paid in priority to any payments made to Class A shareholders. There is no overall limit to the number of SPC Preferred shares that may be issued to pay these fees. In the Administrator’s sole discretion, each Masterworks SPC Preferred share may be exchanged for one Class A share of the series of which the segregated portfolio holds the Artwork. Accordingly, Masterworks management fees will dilute your economic interest in the Artwork at a rate of 1.5% per annum.

In the event we are able to sell the Artwork of a series, your potential investment returns will be lower than the actual appreciation in value of the Artwork of such series due to applicable management fees and expenses.

In the event the Artwork of a series is sold, your distribution of cash proceeds will be reduced by commissions, fees and expenses incurred as a result of administering, marketing and selling the Artwork of such series, as well as dilution resulting from management fees paid to Masterworks in the form of SPC Preferred shares. Transaction costs incurred as part of the sale of the Artwork of a series will differ depending on whether we choose or are able to sell the Artwork of a series privately or through a public auction. In a public auction, the principal transaction costs are a seller’s commission and buyer’s premium (a form of selling commission, based on a graduated scale set by each auction house), both of which reduce the net proceeds received by a seller from what a buyer ultimately pays. The final reported sales price includes the hammer price (i.e. the price at which the auctioneer declared the winning bid), and the buyer’s premium. The buyer may also separately incur additional fees or royalties. A seller typically receives the hammer price less the seller’s commission, if any. The economic terms negotiated between the seller and the auction house can vary widely depending on a number of factors, including the value and importance of the specific work, whether the work is sold as an individual piece or part of a larger collection, anticipated demand levels, and other factors. In addition, the proceeds receivable by a seller are less favorable if the work is subject to a pre-auction guarantee. If we sell the Artwork of a series in a private transaction, Masterworks would be entitled to charge a sales commission to art intermediaries in connection with such sale, including to affiliates of Masterworks, provided that any such amounts paid to affiliates of Masterworks shall not exceed the fees or commissions charged by unaffiliated third parties for similar services.

In addition, in connection with a distribution following a sale of an Artwork, Masterworks will be entitled to its 20% profits interest in respect of its ownership of Class B shares of such series, plus payments in respect of its SPC Preferred shares in an amount equal to the greater of (i) $20.00 per share or (ii) the amount payable per Class A share for each SPC Preferred share earned by it pursuant to the management services agreement. Accordingly, your investment returns upon a sale of the Artwork of a series, if such a sale can occur and if such sale can generate sufficient funds for a distribution after accounting for applicable fees and expenses, may be significantly lower than the actual rate of appreciation of the Artwork of such series.

Risks Associated with an Investment in the Artwork

There is no assurance of appreciation of the Artwork of a series or sufficient cash distributions resulting from the ultimate sale of the Artwork of a series.

There is no assurance that the Artwork of a series will appreciate, maintain its present value, or be sold at a profit. The marketability and value of the Artwork of a series will depend upon many factors beyond our control. There can be no assurance that there will be a ready market for the Artwork of a series, since investment in artwork is generally illiquid, nor is there any assurance that sufficient cash will be generated from the sale of the Artwork of a series to compensate investors for their investment. Even if the Artwork of a series does appreciate in value, the rate of appreciation may be insufficient to cover our management costs and expenses.

The value of the Artwork is subjective.

For non-cash generating assets, such as art, valuation is heavily reliant on an analysis of sales history of similar artwork. Experts often differ on which historical sales are comparable and the degree of comparability. The attempt to discern value from historical sales data is extremely challenging for a variety of reasons, including, without limitation:

Accordingly, due to the inherent challenges involved in estimating the realizable value of the Artwork, any appraisal or estimate of realizable value may prove, with the benefit of hindsight, to be different than the amount ultimately realized upon sale.

Since the valuation of high-end artwork relies in large part on an analysis of historical auction sales, it is more difficult to accurately determine fair value of artwork by artists that have fewer auction sales.

Certain artists such as Andy Warhol and Pablo Picasso have a relatively large global collector base and a well-established track record of auction sales over a lengthy period. These artists were also extremely prolific during their careers, so their artwork is frequently bought and sold at auction. This relatively large volume of data makes estimates of historical pricing trends and fair value ranges for artwork produced by these artists more reliable. By contrast, valuation of works by other artists who have a smaller collector base and or a shorter track record of auction sales is comparatively more difficult and such assessments are generally prone to wider margins of error. When assessing the historical auction performance of artwork by a particular artist, investors are urged to consider the volume of public auction data available. As a general matter, historical pricing trends and fair value estimates are more likely to be more meaningful and predictive for artists with higher volumes of prior auction sales than pricing trends and estimates for artists that have fewer historical auction sales. Accordingly, there is a higher risk that we may overpay for, or misprice, artwork by artists with fewer auction sales than those with higher volumes of prior auction sales.

Our appraisal of the fair value of the Artwork of a series may not be reflective of the value of the Class A shares of such series or the realizable value of the Artwork.

We, together with Masterworks, will estimate the fair value of the Artwork of a series on a quarterly basis, including for purposes of preparing our annual and semi-annual financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. For the reasons set forth elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” section, any such valuation is inherently subjective and may not represent the actual realizable value of the Artwork. In addition, because an investment in the Company represents not just the physical Artwork, but also our administrative, cost, tax and governance structure, coupled with the fact that the timing of a sale of the Artwork of a series is unknown, the value of the Class A shares of such series will be significantly different than the proportionate indirect ownership of the Artwork that they represent. In addition, our Board of Managers will consider a variety of factors in making any determination to sell the Artwork of a series and the appraised value of the Artwork of a series may not be indicative of the price at which our Board of Managers would determine to sell the Artwork of a series.

Our appraisal of the fair market value of an Artwork may differ from the appraisal that would be issued by an independent third-party and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any appraisal issued by Masterworks.

Masterworks performs appraisals of artwork in conformity with the 2024-2025 Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) developed by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation, although conflicts of interest may call into question standards related to appraiser independence. Appraisals are performed by employees of the Administrator and, therefore, Masterworks has conflicts of interest in performing appraisals. Accordingly, our appraisal of the fair market value of an Artwork may differ from the appraisal that would be issued by an independent third party and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any appraisal issued by Masterworks.

Calculation of the Masterworks Artist Market Index includes a degree of subjectivity, which inherently makes it less precise and less reliable than a purely mathematical metric.

The Masterworks Artist Market Index metric seeks to determine how an overall artist market has performed historically and relies in part on categorizing various unique artworks produced by an artist based on quality assessments made by members of the Masterworks appraisals team. Quality, as used in this context, refers to the unique attributes and characteristics of an artwork that make it more or less valuable in the market, such as image, size, creation year, subject matter, coloration and historical sale data. Although some of these factors are objective in nature, the ultimate assessment of how the combination of such factors affect the quality and value of an artwork is subjective. Accordingly, there is a degree of subjectivity employed in the calculation of the Masterworks Artist Market Index, which means that if different people were involved in the categorization process they might have different opinions which would lead to different resulting calculations. In addition, as the Masterworks Artist Market Index is a customized mathematical model with no singular or universally accepted method of computation, there were subjective decisions made by the Masterworks research team in developing the model and categorizing the relevant data. These subjective aspects of the Masterworks Artist Market Index inherently make it prone to variability and may make it less reliable than other metrics that are purely mathematical.

In addition, the art professionals making subjective determinations that impact the calculator of the Masterworks Artist Market Index are employees of Masterworks and therefore may have potential conflicts of interest. We do not believe that these art professionals would have a basis to know how their categorization decisions would impact the overall mathematical calculation of the Masterworks Artist Market Index, though we cannot guarantee that their decisions are free from bias or that the categorization decisions would not be different if they were conducted by unaffiliated third parties.

The Masterworks Artist Market Index also leverages the use of machine learning technology for predictive rankings of subject artworks by quality features which, although reviewed by the Masterworks appraisals team for accuracy, may have potential for error or inaccuracies. While the Masterworks Artist Market Index reflects our best available tool to assess an artist’s overall historical auction market performance, you should not place undue reliance on the Masterworks Artist Market Index and it should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for the other important information included in this Offering Circular.

An investment in the Artwork of a series is subject to various risks, any of which could materially impair the value of the Artwork and the market value of the Class A shares of such series.

Investing in the Artwork of a series is subject to the following risks:

Although, acting as agent for the Company, Masterworks seeks to acquire the Artwork of each series and will conduct due diligence in connection with its purchase of the Artwork, no amount of due diligence can completely insulate a buyer against these risks and if any of these risks materialize, the value of the Artwork of such series may decline, and the value of the Class A shares of such series would be adversely affected.

If the Artwork is eventually exhibited publicly, it could be damaged, and insurance may not cover all of the damages, or even if insurance does cover the damages, it may cause the Artwork to be unsaleable.

It is planned that the Artwork will be permanently stored and displayed in the United States, though it might be displayed internationally. We plan to obtain and maintain insurance coverage for the Artwork. However, the Artwork may be damaged while being displayed and our insurance may not be able to cover all of the damages resulting therefrom, and even if insurance does cover such damages, the damages may result in the Artwork being unsaleable. Accordingly, damage or destruction of the Artwork of a series will have a material adverse impact on the value of the Artwork and, consequently, the value of the Class A shares of such series.

We may not be able to find a buyer for the Artwork at a reasonable price.

Art is a highly illiquid asset and a significant percentage of objects go unsold when sent to auction. Even in the event that we attempt to sell the Artwork of a series, we cannot guarantee that there will be a buyer at any reasonable price.

Temporary popularity of some artworks or categories of art may result in short-term value increases that prove unsustainable as collector tastes shift.

Temporary consumer popularity or “fads” among collectors may lead to short-term or temporary price increases, followed by decreases in value. The demand for specific categories of art and artists is influenced by changing trends in the art market as to which collecting categories and artists are most sought after and by the collecting preferences of individual collectors. These conditions and trends are difficult to predict and may adversely impact our ability to sell the Artwork of a series for a profit. These risks of changes in popularity may be greater for a living or emerging artist, as compared to other categories which may have a proven valuation track record over a longer period of time. These trends could result in reduced profitability or a loss upon the sale of the Artwork of a series.

We could be exposed to losses in the event of title or authenticity claims.

The buying and selling of artwork can involve potential claims regarding title, provenance and or authenticity of the artwork. Authenticity risk related to works of art may result from incorrect attribution, uncertain attribution, lack of certificate proving the authenticity of the artwork, purchase of a non-authentic artwork, or forgery. In the event of a title or authenticity claim against us by a buyer of the Artwork of a series from us, we would seek recourse against the seller of the Artwork of such series pursuant to authenticity and title representations obtained at the time of purchase, but a claim could nevertheless expose us to losses. Further, although we maintain authenticity and title insurance coverage, such coverage may not be sufficient against potential claims. In addition, we do not maintain liquid assets to defend or settle any such legal claims and would be reliant on the Administrator to outlay the cost of such defense or settlement.

The Artwork of a series could be subject to damage, theft or deterioration in condition, which could have a material adverse effect on the value of the Artwork of a series.

We plan to store the Artwork of a series in a protected environment with security measures, but no amount of security can fully protect an artwork from damage or theft. The damage or theft of valuable property, despite these security measures, could have a material adverse impact on the value of the Artwork and, consequently, the value of the Class A shares of such series. The Company maintains insurance, but there is no guarantee that such coverage would be adequate to mitigate all of such losses.

Changes in opinions by experts in the artwork regarding authenticity could damage or eliminate the value of the Artwork.

Authenticity is often completed by art world experts, and opinions often matter more than scientific data. If a well-respected art expert were to opine negatively on the authenticity of the Artwork of a series, it could reduce or eliminate the value of the Artwork of a series.

Insurance coverage for the Artwork of a series may not cover all possible contingencies, exposing us to losses resulting from the damage or loss of the Artwork.

We plan to maintain insurance coverage for the Artwork of a series against damage or loss of the Artwork, although it may expressly exclude damage caused by war, losses caused by chemical or biological contamination and certain other potential loss scenarios. Our insurance coverage does cover title and authenticity claims, subject to certain limitations and conditions, although such coverage may not be sufficient to cover losses. In addition, in the event of a successful claim that we do not have valid title and ownership to the Artwork or that the Artwork is not authentic, representations obtained from the seller to compensate us for such losses may prove to be inadequate. In addition, uncovered damage or destruction of the Artwork that is not fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse impact on the value of Class A shares of a series.

Risks Related to our Reliance on Masterworks

We are totally reliant on the Administrator to maintain and sell Artwork and manage our administrative services.

We do not plan to have employees or intend to maintain or generate any cash flow prior to the sale of the Artwork of a series. Accordingly, we are totally reliant on the performance of the Administrator under the management services agreement to effectuate the decisions of our Board of Managers. We plan to rely on the Administrator to perform or administer all necessary services to maintain the Artwork of each series, including obtaining insurance and ensuring appropriate storage. The Administrator is also responsible for all management services required to maintain our Company, including professional services, regulatory filings, SEC reporting, tax filings and other matters. If the Administrator were to default on its obligations under the management services agreement, it would be extremely difficult for us to replace the Administrator or internally manage these functions given our lack of cash flow and lack of employees. Accordingly, in the event of a material default by the Administrator under the management services agreement, we would likely be forced to sell the Artwork of each series. We cannot provide assurance that the timing and or terms of any such sale would be favorable. Further, Masterworks can withdraw for any reason from its position as our Administrator, subject to certain conditions.

We are totally reliant on the Administrator to maintain sufficient capital resources to pay our fees, costs and expenses.

Although we believe the Administrator has sufficient capital resources and sources of liquidity to perform its obligations under the management services agreement for the foreseeable future, there can be no assurance that the Administrator will be able to maintain sufficient capital to satisfy its obligations in future periods. The Administrator’s capital resources and sources of liquidity will be relied upon by our auditors in determining our likely ability to continue as a going concern. Pursuant to and in accordance with the management services agreement, the Administrator is required to maintain cash reserves on hand for so long as the Class A shares of any series remain outstanding sufficient to pay at least one year of estimated expenses to satisfy its obligations under the management services agreement. However, there can be no assurance that the Administrator will be able to maintain such cash reserves. Masterworks has generated operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since 2022 and intends to fund its ongoing operations and continued growth through periodic sales of management fee shares it earns from investment vehicles such as the Company, together with other revenues generated by Masterworks, and may seek additional sources of third-party financing. There can be no assurance that Masterworks will be able to continue to sell its management fee shares nor that such sales by themselves would be sufficient to mitigate its negative operating cash flow position. If the Administrator’s liquid capital resources and sources of liquidity are insufficient to satisfy its operational requirements, including the management of our Company, for at least one year, our Company may receive qualified audit reports that would likely have a material adverse effect on the value of the Class A shares of a series.

The Board of Managers will have complete authority to administer our business consistent with the terms and conditions of our operating agreement, other than certain amendments to the operating agreement and the management services agreement.

The Board of Managers will have sole voting power over all matters, including: mergers, consolidations, acquisitions, winding up and dissolution; except, the Board of Managers shall not have the authority to do any of the following without first obtaining the prior approval or consent of the holders of a majority of the voting shares of any series affected, except as otherwise set forth therein:

Additionally, we, in our sole and absolute discretion, may decide to sell the Artwork of a series at any time and in any manner.

The series will own the Artwork for an indefinite period and may sell the Artwork at any time following the final closing of the series offering. There is no guarantee that any sale of the Artwork of a series will be successful, or if successful, that the net proceeds realized by shareholders from such transaction will be reflective of the estimated fair market value of the shares at such time.

This concentration of control in the Board of Managers may delay, deter or prevent acts that would be favored by holders of the Class A shares of a series. The interests of the Board of Managers or the Administrator may not always coincide with our interests or the interests of the holders of the Class A shares of a series. As a result, the market price of the Class A shares of a series could decline, or holders of the Class A shares of a series might not receive a premium over the then-current market price of the Class A shares of a series upon a change in control.

Holders of the Class A shares of a series do not elect or vote on the Board of Managers and have limited ability to influence decisions regarding our business.

Our operating agreement provides that our assets, affairs and business will be managed under the direction of the Board of Managers. Holders of the Class A shares of a series do not elect or vote on the Board of Managers and, except for kick-out rights granted to Masterworks, members of the Board of Managers can only be removed by (i) a majority of the existing Board of Managers, or (ii) by the affirmative vote of holders of two-thirds (2/3) of the voting Class A shares outstanding of all series together as a single class and only for “cause”, as defined in the operating agreement. Accordingly, unlike the holders of common stock in a corporation, holders of Class A shares of a series have only limited voting rights on matters affecting our business, and therefore limited ability to influence decisions regarding our business.

As a non-listed company conducting an exempt offering pursuant to Regulation A, we are not subject to a number of corporate governance requirements, including the requirements for a board of directors or independent board committees.

We do not intend to list the Class A shares of any series on a national securities exchange. As a non-listed company conducting an exempt offering pursuant to Regulation A, we are not subject to a number of corporate governance requirements that an issuer listing on a national stock exchange would be. The Board of Managers is made up of Nigel Glenday, Joshua B. Goldstein, and Eli D. Broverman. One of the members of the Board of Managers, Eli D. Broverman, serves as the Independent Manager on the Board of Managers (the “Independent Manager”). The Independent Manager serves to protect the interests of the holders of the Class A shares of all series and is tasked with reviewing and approving all related party transactions of our Company with our affiliates and address all conflicts of interest that may arise between us and the holders of the Class A shares of any series and our affiliates. If the Independent Manager resigns from such position on the Board of Managers at any time, the remaining members of the Board of Managers shall appoint a replacement that meets the standards of an independent director pursuant to the standards set forth in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4200(a)(15). Accordingly, we do not have, nor are we required to have (i) a board of directors of which a majority consists of “independent” directors under the listing standards of a national stock exchange, (ii) an audit committee composed entirely of independent directors and a written audit committee charter meeting a national stock exchange’s requirements, (iii) a nominating/corporate governance committee composed entirely of independent directors and a written nominating/corporate governance committee charter meeting a national stock exchange’s requirements, (iv) a compensation committee composed entirely of independent directors and a written compensation committee charter meeting the requirements of a national stock exchange, and (v) independent audits of our internal controls. Accordingly, you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of a company listed on a national stock exchange.

Risk of non-compliance with regulations, including a risk of Masterworks being deemed to be operating as an unregistered broker-dealer.

The Company has not engaged underwriters in connection with any series offering, but Masterworks will have an arrangement with Masterworks Advisers whereby investment adviser representatives of Masterworks Advisers will be dedicated to providing advisory services to persons who have expressed an interest in investing in Masterworks offerings, including each series offering. In light of Masterworks’ arrangement with Masterworks Advisers, if the SEC were to determine that Masterworks, which is not a registered broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or any state securities laws, has engaged in brokerage activities that require registration, including initial sale of the Class A shares of each series on the Masterworks Platform and permitting a registered broker-dealer to facilitate resales or other liquidity of the Class A shares, Masterworks may need to discontinue or suspend certain operations, which would likely be harmful to its business and reputation. In addition, if Masterworks is found to have operated as a ‘broker-dealer’ without being properly registered, there is a risk that Class A shares offered and sold while Masterworks was not registered may be subject to a right of rescission, which may result in the early termination of the offerings. An unregistered broker-dealer may also face sanctions, penalties and enforcement actions by regulatory authorities. Since the Company is reliant on Masterworks to administer its operations and the Artworks, any regulatory development that is damaging to Masterworks may have a material adverse effect on the Company and Class A shareholders.

Further, if Masterworks Investor Services or another Masterworks affiliated entity were required to register as a broker and/or dealer, Masterworks would be subject to higher compliance costs and periodic examinations and, as a result, Masterworks would likely be required to change aspects of its business processes, fee structure and communications.

Series Offerings are Conducted Without an Underwriter.

The Company does not utilize a broker-dealer to underwrite its series offerings. The absence of an underwriter creates risk because, without the aid of an independent underwriter, you will not have the benefit of an independent due diligence review and investigation of the type normally performed by an independent underwriter in connection with the offering of securities. Accordingly, investors in series offerings must place greater reliance on Masterworks and the Masterworks Advisers than would be the case if an independent underwriter were engaged.

Our operating agreement designates the federal district courts of the United States of America as the exclusive forum for disputes between us and our shareholders involving claims under the Securities Act, which, if enforced by the courts, will restrict our shareholders’ ability to choose the judicial forum for Securities Act disputes.

Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all Securities Act actions. Accordingly, both state and federal courts have jurisdiction to entertain such claims. To prevent having to litigate claims in multiple jurisdictions and the threat of inconsistent or contrary rulings by different courts, among other considerations, our operating agreement provides that the federal district courts of the United States of America will be the exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. There is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such provision, and the enforceability of similar choice of forum provisions in other companies’ constitutive documents has been challenged in legal proceedings. While the Delaware courts have determined that such choice of forum provisions are facially valid, a shareholder may nevertheless seek to bring a claim in a venue other than those designated in the exclusive forum provisions. In such instance, we would expect to vigorously assert the validity and enforceability of the exclusive forum provisions of our operating agreement. This may require significant additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions and there can be no assurance that the provisions will be enforced by a court in those other jurisdictions.

This choice of forum provision may limit a shareholder’s ability to bring a Securities Act claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or other employees. If a court were to find the exclusive-forum provision in our operating agreement to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving the dispute in other jurisdictions, which could seriously harm our financial condition.

The Administrator’s development and use of artificial intelligence (“AI”) presents risks and potential challenges to the Company and Masterworks.

Currently, the Administrator develops and integrates artificial intelligence (“AI”) technologies, including machine learning, in limited areas, such as the computation of the Masterworks Artist Market Index, which measures the historical auction performance of artist markets. The Administrator also utilizes an internal AI tool to support Masterworks’ acquisition analysis process and help determine which artist markets are likely to increase or decrease in value in the future. The Administrator’s use of AI may involve risks, including causing Masterworks to believe that a given artist’s market is stronger or weaker than it actually is, which may impact the pricing, acquisition and disposition of the Artwork of each series. In addition, investors may place undue reliance on the Masterworks Artist Market Index when investing in a series of the Company, even though such indices could be prone to errors or inaccuracies due to its utilization of machine learning.

In addition, the legal and regulatory landscape for AI is developing quickly, both in the U.S. and internationally, affecting not only AI-specific regulations but also with laws in intellectual property and privacy. As AI-related regulations evolve, Masterworks may face increased compliance costs and additional non-compliance risks, which could limit the Administrator’s ability to use and deploy AI technologies effectively.

Risks Relating to Potential Conflicts of Interest

Masterworks financial arrangements may result in misalignment between its interests and the interests of Class A shareholders of a series.

Masterworks and its affiliates will have substantially complete discretion to determine when and if to sell the Artwork of a series. Since Masterworks earns its management fees in equity, it is aligned with investors to maximize the price per share over time. However, Masterworks may have cash requirements or other economic incentives or disincentives relating to when to sell the Artwork of a series that are misaligned with the interests of shareholders of such series. Accordingly, there is a risk that Masterworks and its affiliates will have conflicts of interest and no assurance can be given that any such conflicts will be resolved in a manner that is in the best interests of shareholders of a series.

Although Masterworks will own 1,000 Class B shares of each series representing a 20% profits interest in such series, and will beneficially own Class A shares of each series following the offering of such series, Masterworks may eventually sell its shares.

Masterworks currently owns and will own 1,000 Class B shares of each series representing a 20% profits interest in such series following the offering of such series and will own Class A shares of such series if and to the extent the offering of such series is undersubscribed, as well as SPC Preferred shares of a segregated portfolio of Masterworks Cayman issuable to Masterworks pursuant to the management services agreement which will be exchangeable for Class A shares of the series of which the segregated portfolio holds the Artwork at an exchange rate of 1 for 1. Masterworks has also agreed to lock-up provisions in our operating agreement, that will prohibit it from selling any Class B shares prior to the one-year anniversary of each series offering, though it is permitted to pledge all of its shares to unaffiliated third-party lenders and such lenders shall not be subject to the lock-up if they obtain ownership of the profits interest in connection with a default by Masterworks on its indebtedness. Masterworks will have no restrictions on the disposition of any of its Class B shares after the one-year anniversary of each series offering and no restrictions on the disposition of its Class A shares it would receive by exchanging the SPC Preferred shares of a segregated portfolio of Masterworks Cayman or otherwise acquired, other than restrictions imposed by the management services agreement and applicable securities laws. These shares held by our affiliates, shall be “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 of the Securities Act. In general, our affiliates must either sell their restricted shares in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, in which case the buyer would own restricted securities that could not trade freely with the Class A shares sold in a series offering for at least one year from the time of such sale, or they could sell their shares in accordance with Rule 144. We are unable to estimate the number of Class A shares of a series that will be sold under Rule 144 or pursuant to one or more future qualified offerings or the timing of such sales, since this will depend on the market price for the Class A shares of a series, the personal circumstances of the sellers and other factors. However, the availability for sale of substantial amounts of Class A shares of a series in the open market may adversely affect the market price of the Class A shares of such series offered by this offering circular. In addition, Masterworks has recently entered into a revolving secured promissory note with the Lynn Family Trust 001 pursuant to which it pledged substantially all of its assets, including any and all equity interests it owns in the Company as collateral for borrowings thereunder. If Masterworks were to default under the revolving credit facility, such default could result in a forfeiture of its interests in the Company.

Accordingly, the alignment that will exist upon the final closing of a series offering between Masterworks and our other shareholders of such series offering may not exist in the future. If Masterworks were to forfeit, sell or transfer a significant portion of its shares, the interests of Masterworks may differ significantly from those of investors in the series offering and subsequent holders of the Class A shares of such series. As a result, we cannot assure investors that Masterworks will execute a discretionary sale of the Artwork of a series at a time that is in the best interests of holders of the Class A shares of such series.

Masterworks or another holder of a large block of shares of a particular series may seek to sell its shares on the ATS which could result in downward pressure on the share price.

In the event any person or entity, which may include an affiliate of Masterworks, acquires a significant percentage of the Class A shares of a series, such shareholder may elect to sell its interest in the Class A shares on the ATS or other trading platform which could result in downward pressure on the share price and depress the price you would realize upon sale.

Masterworks and Members of the Board of Managers and executive officers will have other business interests and obligations to other entities, including interests and obligations relating to the art industry.

Masterworks expects to engage in other business activities, including other activities relating to the art industry. Masterworks may buy and sell other works of art, enter into pre-auction guarantees, operate a gallery (for viewing purposes), establish other entities similar to us and other activities. In addition, neither the Administrator nor its executive officers nor the Board of Managers will be required to manage us as their sole and exclusive function and they will have other business interests and will engage in other activities in addition to those relating to us. We are dependent on the Administrator and its officers and employees to successfully operate us. Their other business interests and activities could divert time and attention from operating our business.

We are party to agreements that exculpate the Board of Managers, the Administrator and its affiliates, and certain other persons engaged on behalf of the Administrator from liabilities with respect to certain actions taken, even if such actions are negligent, which also reduces the remedies available to investors for certain acts by such persons.

Our operating agreement limits the liability of the Board of Managers, any of our members, any person who is an officer of ours and any person who serves at the request of the Board of Managers on behalf of us as an officer, director, members of the Board of Managers, Independent Manager, partner, member, stockholder or employee of such person. The management services agreement limits the liability of the Administrator, its affiliates, managers, officers and members. None of the foregoing persons shall be liable to us or the Administrator or any other member of us for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or by other person with respect to us, including any negligent act or failure to act, except in the case of a liability resulting from any of the foregoing person’s own actual fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith, breach of fiduciary duties that have not been waived, reckless disregard of duty or any intentional and material breach of the operating agreement or conduct that is subject of a criminal proceeding (where such person has reasonable cause to believe that such conduct was unlawful). With the prior consent of the Board of Managers, any of the foregoing persons may consult with legal counsel and accountants with respect to our affairs (including interpretations of the operating agreement) and shall be fully protected and justified in any action or inaction which is taken or omitted in good faith, in reliance upon and in accordance with the opinion or advice of such counsel or accountants. In determining whether any of the foregoing persons acted with the requisite degree of care, such person shall be entitled to rely on written or oral reports, opinions, certificates and other statements of the members of the Board of Managers, officers, employees, consultants, attorneys, accountants and professional advisors of us selected with reasonable care; provided, that no such person may rely upon such statements if it believed that such statements were materially false. The foregoing limitations on liability reduce the remedies available to the holders of the Class A shares of any series for actions taken which may negatively affect us.

Representatives of registered investment advisers introduced to you through the Masterworks website are dedicated to advising on Masterworks securities and have conflicts of interest.

Certain investment adviser representatives of Masterworks Advisers, LLC, or “Masterworks Advisers,” are exclusively dedicated to providing advisory services with respect to Masterworks financial products. Masterworks, directly or indirectly, pays the compensation of these individuals and Masterworks Advisers is a wholly owned subsidiary of Masterworks so the representatives have conflicts of interest and lack the independence of other investment professionals who may provide more generalized investment advice. While these individuals have regulatory duties to investors, including fiduciary duties, such individuals are exclusively dedicated to the provision of advisory services of Masterworks financial products. Accordingly, such individuals will not provide you with recommendations or advice on investing in other traditional or alternative asset classes.
