 ### Dapr versions
 
-The Dapr extension support varies depending on how you manage the runtime. 
+Microsoft provides best-effort support for [the latest version of Dapr and two previous versions (N-2)][dapr-supported-version]. The latest patch version is the only supported version of each minor version release. Currently, the Dapr extension for AKS or Arc-enabled Kubernetes supports the following Dapr versions:
 
-**Self-managed**  
-For self-managed runtime, Microsoft provides best-effort support for [the latest version of Dapr and two previous versions (N-2)][dapr-supported-version]. The latest patch version is the only supported version of each minor version release.

-Currently, the Dapr extension for AKS or Arc-enabled Kubernetes supports the following Dapr versions:
-
-- 1.13.2 
-- 1.12.4 
-- 1.11.6* 
-
-_*This version will be retired once the next Dapr version is released._
+The Dapr extension support varies depending on how you manage the runtime.
 
+#### Self-managed 
 Self-managed runtime requires manual upgrade to remain in the support window. To upgrade Dapr via the extension, follow the [Update extension instance](deploy-extensions-az-cli.md#update-extension-instance) instructions.
 
-**Auto-upgrade**  
+After a Dapr runtime version reaches end of Microsoft support, your applications continue to run unchanged. However, Microsoft can no longer provide security patches or related customer support for that runtime version. If your application encounters any problems past the end-of-support date for that version, we recommend upgrading to a supported version to receive the latest security patches and features.
+
+#### Auto-upgrade  
 Enabling auto-upgrade requires careful consideration. While auto-upgrade keeps your Dapr extension updated to the latest minor version, you may experience breaking changes between updates. Microsoft isn't responsible for any downtime caused due to breaking changes between auto-updates.
