Complete information about the Investment Fund’s underlying investment is not readily available.
The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s investment at fair value. The inputs or methodology used for valuing the Fund’s investment is not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in that investment. The Fund’s valuation procedures require evaluation of all relevant factors available at the time the Fund values its portfolio. These relevant factors include the individual Investment Fund’s compliance with fair value measurements, price transparency and valuation procedures in place, subscription and redemption activity, level of illiquid securities held, and the existence or absence of redemption restrictions.
The Fund’s investments are categorized in three levels as disclosed below. Level 1 discloses the amount of investments where the values of those investments are based upon quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 discloses the amount of investments where the Fund has the ability to redeem at net asset value as of the September 30, 2011 measurement date, or within one quarter of the measurement date. Level 3 discloses the amount of investments where the Fund does not have the ability to redeem at net asset value within one quarter of the September 30, 2011 measurement date.

     There was no net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on Level 3 assets still held as of September 30, 2011.
 
*   Effective June 30, 2011, the Fund’s underlying fund investment was reclassified into new investment strategies.
Portfolio Valuation
The Investment Fund in the equity hedged strategy generally utilizes fundamental analysis to invest in publicly traded equities investing in both long and short positions seeking to capture perceived security mispricings. Portfolio construction is driven primarily by bottom-up fundamental research; top-down analysis may also be applied. The Investment Fund representing 100 percent of the fair value of investments in this strategy is a liquidating trust where the liquidation of assets is expected over the next 3 months.
Investment Funds with no current redemption restrictions may be subject to future gates, lock-up provisions or other restrictions, in accordance with their offering documents. The Fund had no unfunded capital commitments as of September 30, 2011.
The Fund recognizes transfers into and out of the levels indicated above at the end of the reporting period. There were no such transfers for the period ended September 30, 2011. Please refer to the June 30, 2011 financial statements for full disclosure on the Fund’s portfolio valuation methodology.
