HOW SHARES ARE PRICED

  

The NAV of the Fund is set on the shut
of standard buying and selling (usually 4:00 p.m. Jap Time) on every day the Alternate is open for enterprise. NAV is computed by figuring out, the
mixture market worth of all belongings of the Fund, much less its liabilities, divided by the full variety of shares excellent ((assets-liabilities)/quantity
of shares = NAV). The Alternate is closed on weekends and New Yr’s Day, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents’ Day, Good
Friday, Memorial Day, Juneteenth, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day (“Alternate Shut”). The
NAV takes under consideration, the bills and charges of the Fund, together with administration, administration, and distribution charges, that are accrued
day by day. The dedication of NAV for the Fund for a specific day is relevant to all purposes for the acquisition of shares, as properly
as all requests for the redemption of Creation Models, obtained by the Fund (or a certified dealer or agent, or its approved designee)
earlier than the shut of buying and selling on the Alternate on that day.

 

Usually, the Fund’s portfolio securities,
together with securities issued by ETFs, are valued every day on the final quoted gross sales value on every safety’s main change. Securities
traded or dealt in upon a number of securities exchanges (whether or not home or overseas) for which market quotations are available
and never topic to restrictions towards resale shall be valued on the final quoted gross sales value on the first change or, within the absence
of a sale on the first change, on the imply between the present bid and ask costs on such change. Securities primarily traded in
the Nationwide Affiliation of Securities Sellers’ Automated Citation System (“NASDAQ”) Nationwide Market System for which
market quotations are available shall be valued utilizing the NASDAQ Official Closing Worth. Securities that aren’t traded on any
securities change (whether or not home or overseas) and for which over-the-counter market quotations are available typically shall
be valued on the final sale value or, within the absence of a sale, on the imply between the present bid and ask value on such over-the-counter
market. Debt securities not traded on an change could also be valued at costs provided by a pricing agent(s) primarily based on dealer or vendor provided
valuations or matrix pricing, a way of valuing securities by reference to the worth of different securities with related traits,
equivalent to ranking, rate of interest and maturity.

 

If market quotations should not available,
securities might be valued at their honest market worth as decided utilizing the “honest worth” procedures accredited by the Board.
Honest worth pricing includes subjective judgments and it’s potential that the honest worth decided for a safety could also be materially totally different
than the worth that might be realized upon the sale of that safety. The honest worth costs can differ from market costs once they develop into
accessible or when a value turns into accessible. The Board has delegated execution of those procedures to a good worth committee composed
of a number of representatives from every of the (i) Belief, (ii) administrator, and (iii) Adviser and/or Sub-Adviser. The committee might
additionally enlist third social gathering consultants equivalent to an audit agency or monetary officer of a safety issuer on an as-needed foundation to help in
figuring out a security-specific honest worth. The Board critiques and ratifies the execution of this course of and the resultant honest worth
costs at the very least quarterly to guarantee the method produces dependable outcomes.

 

The Fund might use impartial pricing companies
to help in calculating the worth of the Fund’s portfolio securities. As well as, market costs for overseas securities should not

In computing the NAV, the Fund values overseas
securities held by the Fund on the newest closing value on the change through which they’re traded instantly previous to closing of the Alternate.
Costs of overseas securities quoted in foreign currency are translated into U.S. {dollars} at present charges. If occasions materially affecting
the worth of a safety within the Fund’s portfolio, notably overseas securities, happen after the shut of buying and selling on a overseas
market however earlier than the Fund costs its shares, the safety might be valued at honest worth. For instance, if buying and selling in a portfolio safety
is halted and doesn’t resume earlier than the Fund calculates its NAV, the Adviser may have to cost the safety utilizing the Funds’ honest
worth pricing tips. With out a honest worth value, short-term merchants may make the most of the arbitrage alternative and dilute
the NAV of long-term buyers. Honest valuation of the Fund’s portfolio securities can serve to scale back arbitrage alternatives accessible
to short-term merchants, however there isn’t a assurance that honest worth pricing insurance policies will stop dilution of the Fund’s NAV by quick
time period merchants. The dedication of honest worth includes subjective judgments. In consequence, utilizing honest worth to cost a safety might end result
in a value materially totally different from the costs utilized by different mutual funds to find out NAV, or from the worth which may be realized upon
the precise sale of the safety.

Fund’s complete belongings.

 

Below sure circumstances
an underlying fund might decide to make fee of a redemption by the Fund wholly or partly by a distribution in sort of securities
from its portfolio, in lieu of money, in conformity with the principles of the SEC. In such instances, the Fund might maintain securities distributed
by an underlying fund till the Adviser determines that it’s applicable to eliminate such securities.

 

Funding selections by the
funding advisers of the underlying fund(s) are made independently of the Fund and the Adviser. Subsequently, the funding adviser of
one underlying fund could also be buying shares of the identical issuer whose shares are being offered by the funding adviser of one other such
fund. The end result can be an oblique expense to the Fund with out conducting any funding goal.

 

 

Alternate Traded Funds

 

ETFs are sometimes passive funds
that observe their associated index and have the flexibleness of buying and selling like a safety. They’re managed by professionals and sometimes present
the investor with diversification, price and tax effectivity, liquidity, marginability, are helpful for hedging, have the flexibility to go lengthy
and quick, and a few present quarterly dividends. Moreover, some ETFs are unit funding trusts. Below sure circumstances, the
adviser might put money into ETFs, often known as “inverse funds,” that are designed to provide outcomes reverse to market developments. Inverse
ETFs are funds designed to rise in value when inventory costs are falling.

 

ETFs have two markets. The
main market is the place establishments swap “creation models” in block-multiples of, for instance, 25,000 shares for in-kind securities
and money within the type of dividends. The secondary market is the place particular person buyers can commerce as little as a single share throughout buying and selling
hours on the change. That is totally different from open-ended mutual funds which are traded after hours as soon as the NAV is calculated. ETFs share
many related dangers with open-end and closed-end funds.

 

Overseas Securities

 

Investing in securities of
overseas firms and international locations includes sure issues and dangers that aren’t sometimes related to investing in U.S. authorities
securities and securities of home firms. There could also be much less publicly accessible details about a overseas issuer than a home
one, and overseas firms should not typically topic to uniform accounting, auditing and monetary requirements and necessities comparable
to these relevant to U.S. firms. There may be much less authorities supervision and regulation of overseas securities exchanges, brokers
and listed firms than exists in the US. Curiosity and dividends paid by overseas issuers could also be topic to withholding and
different overseas taxes, which can lower the web return on such investments as in comparison with dividends and curiosity paid to the Fund by home
firms or the U.S. authorities. There could also be the potential of expropriations, seizure or nationalization of overseas deposits, confiscatory
taxation, political, financial or social instability or diplomatic developments that might have an effect on belongings of the Fund held in overseas international locations.
Lastly, the institution of change controls or different overseas governmental legal guidelines or restrictions may adversely have an effect on the fee
of obligations.

 

To the extent forex change
transactions don’t totally shield the Fund towards hostile adjustments in forex change charges, decreases within the worth of currencies of
the overseas international locations through which the Fund will make investments relative to the U.S. greenback will end in a corresponding lower within the U.S. greenback
worth of the Fund’s belongings denominated in these currencies (and probably a corresponding improve within the quantity of securities required
to be liquidated to satisfy distribution necessities). Conversely, will increase within the worth of currencies of the overseas international locations through which
the Fund invests relative to the U.S. greenback will end in a corresponding improve within the U.S. greenback worth of the Fund’s belongings
(and probably a corresponding lower within the quantity of securities to be liquidated).

 

Brief Gross sales

 

The Fund might promote securities
quick as an outright funding technique and to offset potential declines in lengthy positions in related securities. A brief sale is a transaction
through which the Fund sells a safety it doesn’t personal or have the correct to amass (or that it owns however doesn’t want to ship) in anticipation
that the market value of that safety will decline.

 

When the Fund makes a brief
sale, the broker-dealer by which the quick sale is made should borrow the safety offered quick and ship it to the social gathering buying
the safety. The Fund is required to make a margin deposit in reference to such quick gross sales; the Fund might need to pay a price to borrow
specific securities and can usually be obligated to pay over any dividends and accrued curiosity on borrowed securities.

 

If the worth of the safety
offered quick will increase between the time of the quick sale and the time the Fund covers its quick place, the Fund will incur a loss; conversely,
if the worth declines, the Fund will understand a capital acquire. Any acquire might be decreased, and any loss elevated, by the transaction prices
described above. The profitable use of quick promoting could also be adversely affected by imperfect correlation between actions within the value
of the safety offered quick and the securities being hedged.

 

 

To the extent the Fund sells
securities quick, it should present collateral to the broker-dealer and (besides within the case of quick gross sales “towards the field”)
will keep extra asset protection within the type of money, U.S. authorities securities or different liquid securities with its custodian
in a segregated account in an quantity at the very least equal to the distinction between the present market worth of the securities offered quick and
any quantities required to be deposited as collateral with the promoting dealer. A brief sale is “towards the field” to the extent
the Fund contemporaneously owns, or has the correct to acquire at no added price, securities similar to these offered quick.

 

Widespread Inventory

 

Widespread inventory represents an
fairness (possession) curiosity in an organization, and often possesses voting rights and earns dividends. Dividends on frequent inventory should not mounted
however are declared on the discretion of the issuer. Widespread inventory typically represents the riskiest funding in an organization. As well as,
frequent inventory typically has the best appreciation and depreciation potential as a result of will increase and reduces in earnings are often
mirrored in an organization’s inventory value.

 

Most well-liked Inventory

 

Most well-liked inventory is a category
of inventory having a choice over frequent inventory as to the fee of dividends and the restoration of funding ought to an organization be liquidated,
though most popular inventory is often junior to the debt securities of the issuer. Most well-liked inventory sometimes doesn’t possess voting rights
and its market worth might change primarily based on adjustments in rates of interest.

 

A elementary threat of investing
in frequent and most popular inventory is the danger that the worth of the inventory would possibly lower. Inventory values fluctuate in response to the actions
of a person firm or in response to basic market and/or financial situations. Traditionally, frequent shares have offered larger
long-term returns and have entailed larger short-term dangers than most popular shares, fixed-income securities and cash market investments.
The market worth of all securities, together with frequent and most popular shares, relies upon the market’s notion of worth and never
essentially the e-book worth of an issuer or different goal measures of an organization’s price.

 

Convertible Securities

 

Convertible securities embrace
mounted earnings securities which may be exchanged or transformed right into a predetermined variety of shares of the issuer’s underlying frequent
inventory on the possibility of the holder throughout a specified interval. Convertible securities might take the type of convertible most popular inventory,
convertible bonds or debentures, models consisting of “usable” bonds and warrants or a mixture of the options of a number of
of those securities. Convertible securities are senior to frequent shares in an issuer’s capital construction, however are often subordinated
to related non-convertible securities. Whereas offering a fixed-income stream (typically larger in yield than the earnings derivable from
frequent inventory however decrease than that afforded by an identical nonconvertible safety), a convertible safety additionally offers an investor the chance,
by its conversion function, to take part within the capital appreciation of the issuing firm relying upon a market value advance
within the convertible safety’s underlying frequent inventory.

 

Bonds

 

A bond is an interest-bearing
safety issued by a U.S. or non-U.S. firm, or U.S. or non-U.S. governmental unit. The issuer of a bond has a contractual obligation
to pay curiosity at a said charge on particular dates and to repay principal (the bond’s face worth) periodically or on a specified
maturity date. Bonds typically are utilized by firms and governments to borrow cash from buyers.

 

An issuer might have the correct
to redeem or “name” a bond earlier than maturity, through which case a fund might need to reinvest the proceeds at decrease market charges.
Equally, a fund might need to reinvest curiosity earnings or funds obtained when bonds mature, generally at decrease market charges. Most bonds
bear curiosity earnings at a “coupon” charge that’s mounted for the lifetime of the bond. The worth of a fixed-rate bond often rises
when market rates of interest fall, and falls when market rates of interest rise. Accordingly, a fixed-rate bond’s yield (earnings as a
p.c of the bond’s present worth) might differ from its coupon charge as its worth rises or falls. When an investor purchases a fixed-rate
bond at a value that’s larger than its face worth, the investor is buying the bond at a premium. Conversely, when an investor purchases
a fixed-rate bond at a value that’s lower than its face worth, the investor is buying the bond at a reduction. Fastened-rate bonds that
are bought at a reduction pay much less present earnings than securities with comparable yields which are bought at face worth, with the
end result that costs for such fixed-rate securities may be extra unstable than costs for such securities which are bought at face worth.
Different kinds of bonds bear curiosity at an rate of interest that’s adjusted periodically. Rates of interest on “floating charge” or
“variable charge” bonds could also be larger or decrease than present market charges for fixed-rate bonds of comparable high quality with related
closing maturities.

 

 

Due to their adjustable
rates of interest, the worth of “floating charge” or “variable charge” bonds fluctuates a lot much less in response to market
rate of interest actions than the worth of fixed-rate bonds, however their worth might decline if their rates of interest don’t rise as a lot, or
as rapidly, as rates of interest normally. The Fund might deal with a few of these bonds as having a shorter maturity for functions of calculating
the weighted common maturity of its funding portfolio. Usually, costs of upper high quality points are inclined to fluctuate much less with adjustments
in market rates of interest than costs of decrease high quality points and costs of longer maturity points are inclined to fluctuate greater than costs of
shorter maturity points. Bonds could also be senior or subordinated obligations. Senior obligations typically have the primary declare on a company’s
earnings and belongings and, within the occasion of liquidation, are paid earlier than subordinated obligations. Bonds could also be unsecured (backed solely by
the issuer’s basic creditworthiness) or secured (backed by specified collateral).

 

Company Bonds

 

The funding return of company
bonds displays curiosity earned on the safety and adjustments out there worth of the safety. The market worth of a company bond might
be affected by adjustments out there charge of curiosity, the credit standing of the company, the company’s efficiency and perceptions
of the company within the market. There’s a threat that the issuers of the securities might not be capable of meet their obligations on
curiosity or principal funds on the time known as for by an instrument.

are realized by property gross sales. A Mortgage REIT invests the vast majority of its belongings in actual property mortgage loans and companies its
earnings primarily from curiosity funds. A Hybrid REIT combines the traits of an Fairness REIT and a Mortgage REIT. Though the
Fund can put money into all three sorts of REITs, its emphasis is predicted to be on investments in Fairness REITs.

 

Investments in the actual property
trade contain specific dangers. The true property trade has been topic to substantial fluctuations and declines on an area, regional
and nationwide foundation up to now and will proceed to be sooner or later. Actual property values and earnings from actual property proceed to be
sooner or later. Actual property values and earnings from actual property might decline as a result of basic and native financial situations, overbuilding
and elevated competitors, will increase in property taxes and working bills, adjustments in zoning legal guidelines, casualty or condemnation losses,
regulatory limitations on rents, adjustments in neighborhoods and in demographics, will increase in market rates of interest, or different components. Elements
equivalent to these might adversely have an effect on firms that personal and function actual property instantly, firms that lend to such firms, and firms
that service the actual property trade.

 

Investments in REITs additionally contain
dangers. Fairness REITs might be affected by adjustments within the values of and earnings from the properties they personal, whereas Mortgage REITs could also be
affected by the credit score high quality of the mortgage loans they maintain. As well as, REITs are depending on specialised administration abilities and
on their means to generate money move for working functions and to make distributions to shareholders or unitholders REITs might have
restricted diversification and are topic to dangers related to acquiring financing for actual property, in addition to to the danger of self-liquidation.
REITs additionally may be adversely affected by their failure to qualify for tax-free pass-through therapy of their earnings underneath the Inside
Income Code of 1986, as amended, or their failure to take care of an exemption from registration underneath the 1940 Act. By investing in REITs
not directly by the Fund, a shareholder bears not solely a proportionate share of the bills of the Fund, but in addition might not directly bear
related bills of a few of the REITs through which it invests.

frequent inventory at a selected value (often at a premium above the market worth of the optioned frequent inventory at issuance) legitimate for a selected
time period. Warrants might have a life starting from lower than one 12 months to twenty years, or they might be perpetual. Nonetheless, most warrants
have expiration dates after which they’re nugatory. As well as, a warrant is nugatory if the market value of the frequent inventory does
not exceed the warrant’s train value through the lifetime of the warrant. Warrants haven’t any voting rights, pay no dividends, and have
no rights with respect to the belongings of the company issuing them. The share improve or lower out there value of the warrant
might are usually larger than the share improve or lower out there value of the optioned frequent inventory.

 

Depositary Receipts

 

Sponsored and unsponsored American
Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) are receipts issued by an American financial institution or belief firm evidencing possession of underlying securities
issued by a overseas issuer. ADRs, in registered kind, are designed to be used in U.S. securities markets. Unsponsored ADRs could also be created
with out the participation of the overseas issuer. Holders of those ADRs typically bear all the prices of the ADR facility, whereas overseas
issuers sometimes bear sure prices in a sponsored ADR. The financial institution or belief firm depositary of an unsponsored ADR could also be underneath no obligation
to distribute shareholder communications obtained from the overseas issuer or to cross by voting rights. Most of the dangers described
beneath concerning overseas securities apply to investments in ADRs.

 

Rising Markets Securities

 

Investing in rising market
securities imposes dangers totally different from, or larger than, dangers of investing in overseas developed international locations. These dangers embrace: smaller
market capitalization of securities markets, which can endure intervals of relative illiquidity; important value volatility; restrictions
on overseas funding; potential repatriation of funding earnings and capital. As well as, overseas buyers could also be required to register
the proceeds of gross sales; future financial or political crises may result in value controls, compelled mergers, expropriation or confiscatory
taxation, seizure, nationalization, or creation of presidency monopolies. The currencies of rising market international locations might expertise important
declines towards the U.S. greenback, and devaluation might happen subsequent to investments in these currencies by the Fund. Inflation and speedy
fluctuations in inflation charges have had, and will proceed to have, adverse results on the economies and securities markets of sure
rising market international locations.

 

Extra dangers of rising

within the financial system; much less governmental supervision and regulation; unavailability of forex hedging methods; firms which are newly
organized and small; variations in auditing and monetary reporting requirements, which can end in unavailability of fabric data
about issuers; and fewer developed authorized techniques. As well as, rising securities markets might have totally different clearance and settlement
procedures, which can be unable to maintain tempo with the amount of securities transactions or in any other case make it tough to interact in such
transactions. Settlement issues might trigger the Fund to overlook enticing funding alternatives, maintain a portion of its belongings in money
pending funding, or be delayed in disposing of a portfolio safety. Such a delay may end in potential legal responsibility to a purchaser
of the safety.

 

Certificates of Deposit and Bankers’
Acceptances

 

Certificates of deposit are
receipts issued by a depository establishment in change for the deposit of funds. The issuer agrees to pay the quantity deposited plus curiosity
to the bearer of the receipt on the date specified on the certificates. The certificates often may be traded within the secondary market prior
to maturity. Bankers’ acceptances sometimes come up from short-term credit score preparations designed to allow companies to acquire funds
to finance industrial transactions. Usually, an acceptance is a time draft drawn on a financial institution by an exporter or an importer to acquire a
said quantity of funds to pay for particular merchandise. The draft is then “accepted” by a financial institution that, in impact, unconditionally
ensures to pay the face worth of the instrument on its maturity date. The acceptance might then be held by the accepting financial institution as an incomes
asset or it might be offered within the secondary market on the going charge of low cost for a selected maturity. Though maturities for acceptances
may be so long as 270 days, most acceptances have maturities of six months or much less.

short-term (often from 1 to 270 days) unsecured promissory notes issued by firms with a view to finance their present operations.
It could be secured by letters of credit score, a surety bond or different types of collateral. Business paper is often repaid at maturity by
the issuer from the proceeds of the issuance of latest industrial paper. In consequence, funding in industrial paper is topic to the danger
the issuer can’t difficulty sufficient new industrial paper to fulfill its excellent industrial paper, also referred to as rollover threat. Business
paper might develop into illiquid or might endure from diminished liquidity in sure circumstances. Like all mounted earnings securities, industrial
paper costs are inclined to fluctuations in rates of interest. If rates of interest rise, industrial paper costs will decline. The short-term
nature of a industrial paper funding makes it much less inclined to rate of interest threat than many different mounted earnings securities as a result of
rate of interest threat sometimes will increase as maturity lengths improve. Business paper tends to yield smaller returns than longer-term
company debt as a result of securities with shorter maturities sometimes have decrease efficient yields than these with longer maturities. As
with all mounted earnings securities, there’s a likelihood that the issuer will default on its industrial paper obligation.

 

Info on Time Deposits and Variable Fee
Notes

 

Time deposits are issued by
a depository establishment in change for the deposit of funds. The issuer agrees to pay the quantity deposited plus curiosity to the depositor
on the date specified with respect to the deposit. Time deposits don’t commerce within the secondary market previous to maturity. Nonetheless, some
time deposits could also be redeemable previous to maturity and could also be topic to withdrawal penalties.

 

The industrial paper obligations
are sometimes unsecured and will embrace variable charge notes. The character and phrases of a variable charge be aware (i.e., a “Grasp Notice”)
allow the Fund to speculate fluctuating quantities at various charges of curiosity pursuant to a direct association between the Fund and the issuer.
It permits day by day adjustments within the quantities invested. The Fund, sometimes, has the correct at any time to extend, as much as the complete quantity said
within the be aware settlement, or to lower the quantity excellent underneath the be aware. The issuer might prepay at any time and with out penalty any
a part of or the complete quantity of the be aware. The be aware might or will not be backed by a number of financial institution letters of credit score. As a result of these notes are
direct funding preparations between the Fund and the issuer, it’s not typically contemplated that they are going to be traded; furthermore, there
is at present no secondary marketplace for them. Besides as particularly offered within the Prospectus, there isn’t a limitation on the kind of issuer
from whom these notes could also be bought; nonetheless, in reference to such buy and on an ongoing foundation, the Adviser will take into account the
incomes energy, money move and different liquidity ratios of the issuer, and its means to pay principal and curiosity on demand, together with
a state of affairs through which all holders of such notes made demand concurrently. Variable charge notes are topic to the Fund’s funding
restriction on illiquid securities until such notes may be put again to the issuer (redeemed) on demand inside seven days.

be larger than the relevant brokerage price if the Fund bought such securities within the secondary market.

 

The shares of many closed-end
funds, after their preliminary public providing, often commerce at a value per share, which is lower than the web asset worth per share, the
distinction representing the “market low cost” of such shares. This market low cost could also be due partly to the funding goal
of long-term appreciation, which is sought by many closed-end funds, in addition to to the truth that the shares of closed-end funds should not
redeemable by the holder upon demand to the issuer on the subsequent decided web asset worth however slightly are topic to the rules of
provide and demand within the secondary market. A relative lack of secondary market purchasers of closed-end fund shares additionally might contribute
to such shares buying and selling at a reduction to their web asset worth.

of closed-end funds which are buying and selling at a reduction to web asset worth or at a premium to NAV. There may be no assurance that the market
low cost on shares of any closed-end fund bought by the Fund will ever lower. In truth, it’s potential that this market low cost
might improve and the Fund might endure realized or unrealized capital losses as a result of additional decline out there value of the securities
of such closed-end funds, thereby adversely affecting the web asset worth of the Fund’s shares. Equally, there may be no assurance
that any shares of a closed-end fund bought by the Fund at a premium will proceed to commerce at a premium or that the premium won’t
lower subsequent to a purchase order of such shares by the Fund.

 

Closed-end funds might difficulty
senior securities (together with most popular inventory and debt obligations) for the aim of leveraging the closed-end fund’s frequent shares
in an try to reinforce the present return to such closed-end fund’s frequent shareholders. The Fund’s funding within the frequent
shares of closed-end funds which are financially leveraged might create a chance for larger complete return on its funding, however at
the identical time could also be anticipated to exhibit extra volatility in market value and web asset worth than an funding in shares of funding
firms and not using a leveraged capital construction.

on a home or overseas securities change and will or will not be issued by the Choices Clearing Company. Choices buying and selling is a extremely
specialised exercise that entails larger than bizarre funding threat. Choices could also be extra unstable than the underlying devices,
and due to this fact, on a proportion foundation, an funding in choices could also be topic to larger fluctuation than an funding within the underlying
devices themselves.

as the choice beforehand written. A closing buy transaction will ordinarily be effected to comprehend a revenue on an impressive possibility,
to forestall an underlying instrument from being known as, to allow the sale of the underlying instrument or to allow the writing of a brand new
possibility containing totally different phrases on such underlying instrument. The price of such a liquidation buy plus transactions prices could also be
larger than the premium obtained upon the unique possibility, through which occasion the Fund could have paid a loss within the transaction. There’s
no assurance {that a} liquid secondary market will exist for any specific possibility. An possibility author unable to impact a closing buy
transaction will be unable to promote the underlying instrument or liquidate the belongings held in a segregated account, as described beneath,

There are a number of dangers related
with transactions in choices. For instance, there are important variations between the securities and choices markets that might end result
in an imperfect correlation between these markets, inflicting a given transaction to not obtain its aims. As well as, a liquid secondary
marketplace for specific choices, whether or not traded over-the-counter or on an change, could also be absent for causes which embrace the next:
there could also be inadequate buying and selling curiosity in sure choices; restrictions could also be imposed by an change on opening transactions or closing
transactions or each; buying and selling halts, suspensions or different restrictions could also be imposed with respect to specific lessons or collection of
choices or underlying securities or currencies; uncommon or unexpected circumstances might interrupt regular operations on an change; the
services of an change or the Choices Clearing Company might not always be enough to deal with present buying and selling worth; or one
or extra exchanges may, for financial or different causes, determine or be compelled at some future date to discontinue the buying and selling of choices
(or a specific class or collection of choices), through which occasion the secondary market on that change (or in that class or collection of choices)
would stop to exist, though excellent choices that had been issued by the Choices Clearing Company because of trades on that
change would proceed to be exercisable in accordance with their phrases.

 

Profitable use by the Fund
of choices on inventory indices might be topic to the flexibility of the Adviser to appropriately predict actions within the instructions of the inventory
market. This requires totally different abilities and methods than predicting adjustments within the costs of particular person securities. As well as, the
Fund’s means to successfully hedge all or a portion of the securities in its portfolio, in anticipation of or throughout a market decline,
by transactions in put choices on inventory indices, depends upon the diploma to which value actions within the underlying index correlate
with the worth actions of the securities held by the Fund. In as a lot because the Fund’s securities won’t duplicate the elements
of an index, the correlation won’t be excellent. Consequently, the Fund bears the danger that the costs of its securities being hedged
won’t transfer in the identical quantity as the costs of its put choices on the inventory indices. Additionally it is potential that there could also be a adverse
correlation between the index and the Fund’s securities that might end in a loss on each such securities and the choices on inventory
indices acquired by the Fund.

 

The hours of buying and selling for choices
might not conform to the hours throughout which the underlying securities are traded. To the extent that the choices markets shut earlier than the
markets for the underlying securities, important value and charge actions can happen within the underlying markets that can’t be mirrored
within the choices markets. The acquisition of choices is a extremely specialised exercise that includes funding methods and dangers totally different
from these related to bizarre portfolio securities transactions. The acquisition of inventory index choices includes the danger that the
premium and transaction prices paid by the Fund in buying an possibility might be misplaced because of unanticipated actions in costs of
the securities comprising the inventory index on which the choice relies.

 

 

There isn’t a assurance that
a liquid secondary market on an choices change will exist for any specific possibility, or at any specific time, and for some choices
no secondary market on an change or elsewhere might exist. If the Fund is unable to shut out a name possibility on securities that it has
written earlier than the choice is exercised, the Fund could also be required to buy the optioned securities with a view to fulfill its obligation
underneath the choice to ship such securities. If the Fund is unable to impact a closing sale transaction with respect to choices on securities
that it has bought, it must train the choice with a view to understand any revenue and would incur transaction prices upon the
buy and sale of the underlying securities.

 

Cowl for Choices Positions

 

Transactions utilizing choices
(apart from choices that the Fund has bought) expose the Fund to an obligation to a different social gathering. The Fund won’t enter into any such
transactions until it owns both (i) an offsetting (“lined”) place in securities or different choices or (ii) money or liquid
securities with a worth adequate always to cowl its potential obligations not lined as offered in (i) above. The Fund will
adjust to SEC tips concerning cowl for these devices and, if the rules so require, put aside money or liquid securities
in a segregated account with the Fund’s custodian within the prescribed quantity. Below present SEC tips, the Fund will segregate
belongings to cowl transactions through which the Fund writes or sells choices.

 

Belongings used as cowl or held
in a segregated account can’t be offered whereas the place within the corresponding possibility is open, until they’re changed with related belongings.
In consequence, the dedication of a giant portion of the Fund’s belongings to cowl or segregated accounts may impede portfolio administration
or the Fund’s means to satisfy redemption requests or different present obligations.

 

Choices on Futures Contracts

 

The Fund might buy and promote
choices on the identical kinds of futures through which it might make investments. Choices on futures are much like choices on underlying devices besides
that choices on futures give the purchaser the correct, in return for the premium paid, to imagine a place in a futures contract (an extended
place if the choice is a name and a brief place if the choice is a put), slightly than to buy or promote the futures contract, at
a specified train value at any time through the interval of the choice. Upon train of the choice, the supply of the futures place
by the author of the choice to the holder of the choice might be accompanied by the supply of the collected steadiness within the author’s
futures margin account which represents the quantity by which the market value of the futures contract, at train, exceeds (within the case
of a name) or is lower than (within the case of a put) the train value of the choice on the futures contract. Purchasers of choices who
fail to train their choices previous to the train date endure a lack of the premium paid.

 

Seller Choices

 

The Fund might have interaction in transactions
involving vendor choices in addition to exchange-traded choices. Sure extra dangers are particular to vendor choices. Whereas the Fund would possibly
look to a clearing company to train exchange-traded choices, if the Fund had been to buy a vendor possibility it could must rely
on the vendor from which it bought the choice to carry out if the choice had been exercised. Failure by the vendor to take action would end result
within the lack of the premium paid by the Fund in addition to lack of the anticipated good thing about the transaction.

 

Alternate traded choices typically
have a steady liquid market whereas vendor choices might not. Consequently, the Fund might typically be capable of understand the worth of a vendor
possibility it has bought solely by exercising or reselling the choice to the vendor who issued it. Equally, when the Fund writes a vendor
possibility, it might typically be capable of shut out the choice previous to its expiration solely by coming into right into a closing buy transaction
with the vendor to whom the Fund initially wrote the choice. Whereas the Fund will search to enter into vendor choices solely with sellers
who will comply with and that are anticipated to be able to coming into into closing transactions with the Fund, there may be no assurance
that the Fund will at any time be capable of liquidate a vendor possibility at a positive value at any time previous to expiration. Except the Fund,
as a lined vendor name possibility author, is ready to impact a closing buy transaction, it will be unable to liquidate securities
(or different belongings) used as cowl till the choice expires or is exercised. Within the occasion of insolvency of the opposite social gathering, the Fund might
be unable to liquidate a vendor possibility. With respect to choices written by the Fund, the shortcoming to enter right into a closing transaction
might end in materials losses to the Fund. For instance, as a result of the Fund should keep a secured place with respect to any name possibility
on a safety it writes, the Fund might not promote the belongings, which it has segregated to safe the place whereas it’s obligated underneath
the choice. This requirement might impair the Fund’s means to promote portfolio securities at a time when such sale is perhaps advantageous.

 

 

The Employees of the SEC has taken
the place that bought vendor choices are illiquid securities. The Fund might deal with the duvet used for written vendor choices as liquid
if the vendor agrees that the Fund might repurchase the vendor possibility it has written for a most value to be calculated by a predetermined
formulation. In such instances, the vendor possibility can be thought of illiquid solely to the extent the utmost buy value underneath the formulation
exceeds the intrinsic worth of the choice. Accordingly, the Fund will deal with vendor choices as topic to the Fund’s limitation on
illiquid securities. If the SEC adjustments its place on the liquidity of vendor choices, the Fund will change its therapy of such devices
accordingly.

 

Unfold Transactions

 

The Fund might buy lined
unfold choices from securities sellers. These lined unfold choices should not presently exchange-listed or exchange-traded. The acquisition
of a selection possibility offers the Fund the correct to place securities that it owns at a set greenback unfold or mounted yield unfold in relationship
to a different safety that the Fund doesn’t personal, however which is used as a benchmark. The chance to the Fund, along with the dangers of vendor
choices described above, is the price of the premium paid in addition to any transaction prices. The acquisition of unfold choices might be used
to guard the Fund towards hostile adjustments in prevailing credit score high quality spreads, i.e., the yield unfold between prime quality and
decrease high quality securities. This safety is offered solely through the lifetime of the unfold choices.

 

Repurchase Agreements

 

The Fund might enter into repurchase
agreements. In a repurchase settlement, an investor (such because the Fund) purchases a safety (often known as the “underlying safety”)
from a securities vendor or financial institution. Any such vendor or financial institution should be deemed creditworthy by the Adviser. At the moment, the financial institution or securities
vendor agrees to repurchase the underlying safety at a mutually agreed upon value on a chosen future date. The repurchase value
could also be larger than the acquisition value, the distinction being earnings to the Fund, or the acquisition and repurchase costs could be the similar,
with curiosity at an agreed upon charge as a result of Fund on repurchase. In both case, the earnings to the Fund typically might be unrelated
to the rate of interest on the underlying securities. Repurchase agreements should be “totally collateralized,” in that the market
worth of the underlying securities (together with accrued curiosity) should always be equal to or larger than the repurchase value. Subsequently,
a repurchase settlement may be thought of a mortgage collateralized by the underlying securities.

 

Repurchase agreements are typically
for a brief time period, usually lower than every week, and can typically be utilized by the Fund to speculate extra money or as a part of a short lived
defensive technique. Repurchase agreements that don’t present for fee inside seven days might be handled as illiquid securities. In
the occasion of a chapter or different default by the vendor of a repurchase settlement, the Fund may expertise each delays in liquidating
the underlying safety and losses. These losses may end result from: (a) potential decline within the worth of the underlying safety whereas
the Fund is looking for to implement its rights underneath the repurchase settlement; (b) potential diminished ranges of earnings or lack of entry to earnings
throughout this era; and (c) bills of implementing its rights.

 

Buying and selling in Futures Contracts

 

A futures contract gives
for the longer term sale by one social gathering and buy by one other social gathering of a specified quantity of a selected monetary instrument (e.g., models of
a inventory index) for a specified value, date, time and place designated on the time the contract is made. Brokerage charges are paid when a
futures contract is purchased or offered and margin deposits should be maintained. Coming into right into a contract to purchase is often known as
shopping for or buying a contract or holding an extended place. Coming into right into a contract to promote is often known as promoting a contract
or holding a brief place.

 

 

Not like when the Fund purchases
or sells a safety, no value can be paid or obtained by the Fund upon the acquisition or sale of a futures contract. Upon coming into into
a futures contract, and to take care of the Fund’s open positions in futures contracts, the Fund can be required to deposit with its
custodian or futures dealer in a segregated account within the title of the futures dealer an amount of money, U.S. authorities securities, appropriate
cash market devices, or different liquid securities, often known as “preliminary margin.” The margin required for a specific futures
contract is ready by the change on which the contract is traded, and could also be considerably modified on occasion by the change throughout
the time period of the contract. Futures contracts are usually bought and offered on margins that will vary upward from lower than 5% of the
worth of the contract being traded.

 

If the worth of an open futures
contract adjustments (by improve in underlying instrument or index within the case of a sale or by lower within the case of a purchase order) in order that
the loss on the futures contract reaches some extent at which the margin on deposit doesn’t fulfill margin necessities, the dealer will
require a rise within the margin. Nonetheless, if the worth of a place will increase due to favorable value adjustments within the futures contract
in order that the margin deposit exceeds the required margin, the dealer can pay the surplus to the Fund.

 

These subsequent funds,
known as “variation margin,” to and from the futures dealer, are made every day as the worth of the underlying belongings fluctuate
making the lengthy and quick positions within the futures contract roughly useful, a course of often known as “marking to the market.”
The Fund expects to earn curiosity earnings on margin deposits.

 

Though sure futures contracts,
by their phrases, require precise future supply of and fee for the underlying devices, in follow most futures contracts are often
closed out earlier than the supply date. Closing out an open futures contract buy or sale is effected by coming into into an offsetting
futures contract sale or buy, respectively, for a similar mixture quantity of the similar underlying instrument or index and the
similar supply date. If the offsetting buy value is lower than the unique sale value, the Fund realizes a acquire; whether it is extra, the
Fund realizes a loss. Conversely, if the offsetting sale value is greater than the unique buy value, the Fund realizes a acquire; if
it’s much less, the Fund realizes a loss. The transaction prices should even be included in these calculations. There may be no assurance, nonetheless,
that the Fund will be capable of enter into an offsetting transaction with respect to a specific futures contract at a specific time.
If the Fund shouldn’t be capable of enter into an offsetting transaction, the Fund will proceed to be required to take care of the margin deposits
on the futures contract.

 

For instance, one contract in
the Monetary Instances Inventory Alternate 100 Index future is a contract to purchase 25 kilos sterling multiplied by the extent of the UK Monetary
Instances 100 Share Index on a given future date. Settlement of a inventory index futures contract might or will not be within the underlying instrument
or index. If not within the underlying instrument or index, then settlement might be made in money, equal over time to the distinction between
the contract value and the precise value of the underlying asset on the time the inventory index futures contract expires.

 

Regulation as a Commodity Pool Operator

 

The Adviser is registered with
the Nationwide Futures Affiliation as a commodity pool operator underneath the Commodity Alternate Act, as amended, and the principles of the Commodity
Futures Buying and selling Fee promulgated thereunder. The Adviser, on behalf of the Fund, has filed with the Nationwide Futures Affiliation,
a discover claiming an exemption from the definition of the time period “commodity pool operator” in accordance with Rule 4.5 underneath
the Commodity Alternate Act (“CEA”), as amended, and the principles of the Commodity Futures Buying and selling Fee promulgated thereunder,
with respect to the Fund’s operations. Accordingly, the Fund shouldn’t be topic, nor will they be topic, to registration or regulation
as a commodity pool operator underneath the CEA.

  

When-Issued, Ahead Commitments and Delayed Settlements

 

The Fund might buy and promote
securities on a when-issued, ahead dedication or delayed settlement foundation. On this occasion, the Custodian (as outlined underneath the part
entitled “Custodian”) will segregate liquid belongings equal to the quantity of the dedication in a separate account. Usually, the
Custodian will put aside portfolio securities to fulfill a purchase order dedication. In such a case, the Fund could also be required subsequently
to segregate extra belongings with a view to guarantee that the worth of the account stays equal to the quantity of the Fund’s dedication.
It could be anticipated that the Fund’s web belongings will fluctuate to a larger diploma when it units apart portfolio securities to cowl
such buy commitments than when it units apart money.

 

 

The Fund doesn’t intend to
have interaction in these transactions for speculative functions however solely in furtherance of their funding aims. As a result of the Fund will segregate
liquid belongings to fulfill buy commitments within the method described, the Fund’s liquidity and the flexibility of the Adviser to handle
them could also be affected within the occasion the Fund’s ahead commitments, commitments to buy when-issued securities and delayed settlements
ever exceeded 15% of the worth of its web belongings.

 

The Fund will buy securities
on a when-issued, ahead dedication or delayed settlement foundation solely with the intention of finishing the transaction. If deemed advisable
as a matter of funding technique, nonetheless, the Fund might eliminate or renegotiate a dedication after it’s entered into, and will promote
securities it has dedicated to buy earlier than these securities are delivered to the Fund on the settlement date. In these instances the Fund
might understand a taxable capital acquire or loss. When the Fund engages in when-issued, ahead dedication and delayed settlement transactions,
it depends on the opposite social gathering to consummate the commerce. Failure of such social gathering to take action might end result within the Fund incurring a loss or lacking
a chance to acquire a value credited to be advantageous.

 

The market worth of the securities
underlying a when-issued buy, ahead dedication to buy securities, or a delayed settlement and any subsequent fluctuations
of their market worth is taken under consideration when figuring out the market worth of the Fund beginning on the day the Fund agrees to buy
the securities. The Fund doesn’t earn curiosity on the securities it has dedicated to buy till it has paid for and delivered on
the settlement date.

 

Illiquid and Restricted Securities

 

The Fund might make investments as much as 15%
of its web belongings in illiquid securities. Illiquid securities embrace securities topic to contractual or authorized restrictions on resale
(e.g., as a result of they haven’t been registered underneath the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) and securities
which are in any other case not readily marketable (e.g., as a result of buying and selling within the safety is suspended or as a result of market makers don’t exist or
won’t entertain bids or affords). Securities that haven’t been registered underneath the Securities Act are known as non-public placements
or restricted securities and are bought instantly from the issuer or within the secondary market. Overseas securities which are freely tradable
of their principal markets should not thought of to be illiquid.

 

Restricted and different illiquid
securities could also be topic to the potential for delays on resale and uncertainty in valuation. The Fund is perhaps unable to eliminate illiquid
securities promptly or at cheap costs and would possibly thereby expertise problem in satisfying redemption requests from shareholders.
The Fund may need to register restricted securities with a view to eliminate them, leading to extra expense and delay. Antagonistic
market situations may impede such a public providing of securities.

 

A big institutional market
exists for sure securities that aren’t registered underneath the Securities Act, together with overseas securities. The truth that there are
contractual or authorized restrictions on resale to most people or to sure establishments will not be indicative of the liquidity of
such investments. Rule 144A underneath the Securities Act permits such a broader institutional buying and selling marketplace for securities in any other case topic
to restrictions on resale to most people. Rule 144A establishes a “protected harbor” from the registration necessities of
the Securities Act for resale of sure securities to certified institutional patrons. Rule 144A has produced enhanced liquidity for a lot of
restricted securities, and market liquidity for such securities might proceed to increase because of this regulation and the ensuing
existence of the PORTAL system, which is an automatic system for the buying and selling, clearance and settlement of unregistered securities of home
and overseas issuers sponsored by NASDAQ.

exemption from registration afforded by Part 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, are liquid regardless that they don’t seem to be registered. A dedication
of whether or not such a safety is liquid or not is a query of reality. In making this dedication, the Adviser will take into account, because it deems
applicable underneath the circumstances and amongst different components: (1) the frequency of trades and quotes for the safety; (2) the variety of
sellers keen to buy or promote the safety; (3) the variety of different potential purchasers of the safety; (4) vendor undertakings
to make a market within the safety; (5) the character of the safety (e.g., debt or fairness, date of maturity, phrases of dividend or curiosity
funds, and different materials phrases) and the character of {the marketplace} trades (e.g., the time wanted to eliminate the safety, the strategy
of soliciting affords, and the mechanics of switch); and (6) the ranking of the safety and the monetary situation and prospects of
the issuer. Within the case of business paper, the Adviser may also decide that the paper (1) shouldn’t be traded flat or in default as to
principal and curiosity, and (2) is rated in one of many two highest ranking classes by at the very least two Nationally Acknowledged Statistical
Score Organizations (“NRSROs”) or, if just one NRSRO charges the safety, by that NRSRO, or, if the safety is unrated, the
Adviser determines that it’s of equal high quality.

 

 

Rule 144A securities and Part
4(a)(2) industrial paper which have been deemed liquid as described above will proceed to be monitored by the Adviser to find out if
the safety is not liquid as the results of modified situations. Investing in Rule 144A securities or Part 4(a)(2) industrial
paper may have the impact of accelerating the quantity of the Fund’s belongings invested in illiquid securities if institutional patrons
are unwilling to buy such securities.
