The nuclear clouds (0-0.45 kpc) are the only bin well represented by a truncated power law. \citet{Adamo_2015} excluded this inner bin due to the high luminosity gradient and the more active star formation. The stellar clusters, in contrast, are well described by a truncation for the three outer bins \cite{Adamo_2015}. The indices found for the GMCs are along the same magnitude as those found for GMCs in other nearby galaxies \cite{Fukui_2010}. The indices are smalller smaller  than those for the stellar clusters in M83 but similarly increase outwards (Table 1). \begin{table}   \begin{tabular}{ c c c c c c c c c}  Bin (kpc) & GMC $\alpha$ & R & p & GMC $M_c$ ($10^6$ M$_\odot$) & Largest GMC ($10^6$ M$_\odot$) & 5th largest GMC ($10^6$ M$_\odot$) & Stellar cluster $\alpha$ & Stellar cluster $M_c$ ($10^5$ M$_\odot$) \\
