The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below: Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.) Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) The table below sets forth information about the level within the fair value hierarchy at which the Master Fund's investments are measured at June 30, 2009:
