    Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial reporting purposes. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and derivative financial instruments and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

    Level 1 — unadjusted quoted prices in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that the Series has the ability to access

 

    Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market- corroborated inputs)

 

    Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Series’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments)

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Series’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. For information about the Series’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial instruments, refer to the Series’s most recent financial statements as contained in its annual report.

(h)  Cost of investments shown approximates cost for federal income tax purposes. Gross unrealized appreciation and gross unrealized depreciation of investments at March 31, 2015 was $1,504,390,649 and $16,291,021, respectively, resulting in net unrealized appreciation of investments of $1,488,099,628.

 

Security valuation: The Portfolio’s investments are valued each business day by independent pricing services. Equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price or official closing price (closing bid price if no sale has occurred) on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. Investments in other mutual funds are valued at the net asset value per share. Fixed
  income securities and options are valued on the basis of the closing bid price. Futures contracts are valued at the quoted daily settlement price at the end of each day on the exchange upon which they are traded. Money market instruments maturing within 60 days of the valuation date are valued at amortized cost, a method by which each money market instrument is initially valued at cost, and thereafter a constant accretion or amortization of any discount or premium is recorded until maturity of the security. Investments in other mutual funds are valued at net asset value per share. The Portfolio may value securities for which market quotations are not readily available at “fair value,” as determined in good faith pursuant to procedures established by the Board of Trustees.

The Portfolio adopted provisions surrounding fair value measurements and disclosures that define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expand disclosures about fair value measurements. These provisions apply to fair value measurements that are already required or permitted by other accounting standards and are intended to increase the consistency of those measurements and apply broadly to securities and other types of assets and liabilities. In accordance with these provisions, fair value is defined as the price that the Portfolio would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments.

The three tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:

 

    Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

 

    Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

    Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used, as of March 31, 2015, in valuing the Portfolio’s assets carried at fair value:

Derivatives

Futures: The Portfolio may enter into financial futures contracts as part of its strategy to track the performance of the S&P 500® Index. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with the broker cash or securities in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. Variation margin payments are made or received by the Portfolio each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security or index, and are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Portfolio. The Portfolio recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed. The Portfolio voluntarily segregates securities in an amount equal to the outstanding value of the open futures contracts in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission requirements.

The Portfolio adopted provisions surrounding Derivatives and Hedging which requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements.

The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are an imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the benchmark and the prices of futures contracts and the possibility of an illiquid market. To the extent permitted by the investment objective, restrictions and policies set forth in the Portfolio’s Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, the Portfolio may participate in various derivative-based transactions. Derivative securities are instruments or agreements whose value is derived from an underlying security or index. The Portfolio’s use of derivatives includes futures. These instruments offer unique characteristics and risks that assist the Portfolio in meeting its investment objective. The Portfolio typically uses derivatives in two ways: cash equitization and return enhancement. Cash equitization is a technique that may be used by the Portfolio through the use of options and futures to earn “market-like” returns with the Portfolio’s excess and liquidity reserve cash balances and receivables. Return enhancement can be accomplished through the use of derivatives in the Portfolio. By purchasing certain instruments, the Portfolio may more effectively achieve the desired portfolio characteristics that assist in meeting the Portfolio’s investment objectives. Depending on how the derivatives are structured and utilized, the risks associated with them may vary widely. These risks are generally categorized as market risk, liquidity risk and counterparty or credit risk.

The following table discloses the amounts related to the Portfolio’s use of derivative instruments and hedging activities at March 31, 2015:

    For Series compliance purposes, the Series‘ industry classifications refer to any one or more of the industry sub-classifications used by one or more widely recognized market indexes or ratings group indexes, and/or as defined by the investment advisor. These definitions may not apply for purposes of this report, which may combine such industry sub-classifications for reporting ease.

 

    Fair Value Measurements - Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial reporting purposes. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and derivative financial instruments and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

    Level 1 — unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that the Series has the ability to access

 

    Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs)

 

    Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Series’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments)

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Series’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. For information about the Master Series’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial instruments, please refer to the Series’s most recent financial statements as contained in its annual report.

As of March 31, 2015, the following tables summarize the Series’s investments and derivative financial instruments categorized in the disclosure hierarchy:

AMERICAN BEACON FUNDS

SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES TO SCHEDULES OF INVESTMENTS

1. Organization

American Beacon Funds (the “Trust”), is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. As of March 31, 2015, the Trust consists of thirty-one active series, ten of which are presented in this filing (collectively, the “Funds” and each individually a “Fund”): American Beacon AHL Managed Futures Strategy Fund, American Beacon Bahl & Gaynor Small Cap Growth Fund, American Beacon Bridgeway Large Cap Value Fund, American Beacon Holland Large Cap Growth Fund, American Beacon Stephens Small Cap Growth Fund, American Beacon Stephens Mid-Cap Growth Fund, American Beacon Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund, American Beacon S&P 500 Index Fund, American Beacon International Equity Index Fund and American Beacon Small Cap Index Fund. The remaining twenty-one active series are reported in separate filings.

Effective April 30, 2015 American Beacon Advisors, Inc. (the “Manager”) became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Astro AB Borrower, Inc., which is indirectly owned by investment funds affiliated with Kelso & Company, L.P. and Estancia Capital Management, LLC, two prominent private equity firms. Prior to April 30 the Manager was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lighthouse Holdings, Inc., which was indirectly owned by investment funds affiliated with Pharos Capital Group, LLC and TPG Capital, L.P., two leading private equity firms.

2. Consolidation of Subsidiaries

The consolidated Schedule of Investments of the American Beacon AHL Managed Futures Strategy Fund, (the “CFC Fund”), includes the accounts of the American Beacon Cayman Managed Futures Strategy Fund Ltd., a wholly-owned and controlled subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”). All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation for the CFC Fund.

For Federal tax purposes, taxable income for the CFC Fund and its Subsidiary are calculated separately. The Subsidiary is classified as controlled foreign corporations under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“the Code”) and the Subsidiary’s taxable income is included in the calculation of the CFC Fund’s taxable income. Net losses of the Subsidiary are not deductible by the CFC Fund either in the current period or future periods. The Subsidiary has a fiscal year end of December 31st for financial statement consolidation purposes and a nonconforming tax year end of November 30th.

The CFC Fund may each invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary, which acts as an investment vehicle in order to effect certain investments consistent with the CFC Fund’s investment objectives and policies. The CFC Fund expects to achieve a significant portion of its exposure to commodities and commodities-related investments through investment in the Subsidiary. Unlike the CFC Fund, the Subsidiary may invest without limitation in commodities and commodities-related investments.

3. CFTC Regulation

On August 13, 2013, the CFTC adopted rules to harmonize conflicting United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC’’) and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) disclosure, reporting and recordkeeping requirements fur registered investment companies that do not meet an exemption from the definition of commodity pool. The harmonization rules provide that the CFTC will accept the SEC’s disclosure, reporting, and recordkeeping regime as substituted compliance for substantially all of the otherwise applicable CFTC regulations as long as such investment companies meet the applicable SEC requirements.

The AHL Managed Futures Strategy Fund is a commodity pool, as defined in the regulation of the CFTC and operated by the Manager, a commodity pool operator regulated with the CFTC.

4. Security Valuation and Fair Value Measurements

Investments are valued at the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4 p.m. ET, each day that the Exchange is open for business. Equity securities, including exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price or official closing price (closing bid price or last evaluated quote if no sale has occurred) on the primary market or exchange on which they trade.

Debt securities (other than short-term securities) normally are valued on the basis of prices provided by an independent pricing service and may take into account appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics, and other market data. The prices of debt securities may be determined using quotes obtained from brokers.

Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at the closing net asset value (“NAV”) per share of the mutual fund on the day of valuation. Investment grade short-term obligations with 60 days or less to maturity are valued using the amortized cost method, which approximates market value.

Securities for which the market prices are not readily available or are not reflective of the fair value of the security, as determined by the Manager, will be priced at a fair value following procedures approved by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”).

Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund is required to deposit with its futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Fund. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

For valuation purposes, the last quoted price of non U.S. equity securities may be adjusted under the circumstances described below. If the Fund determines that developments between the close of a foreign market and the close of the NYSE will, in its judgment, materially affect the value of some or all of its portfolio securities, the Fund will adjust the previous closing prices to reflect what it believes to be the fair value of the securities as of the close of the NYSE. In deciding whether it is necessary to adjust closing prices to reflect fair value, the Fund reviews a variety of factors, including developments in foreign markets, the performance of U.S. securities markets, and the performance of instruments trading in U.S. markets that represent foreign securities and baskets of foreign securities. A Fund may also fair value securities in other situations, such as when a particular foreign market is closed but the Fund is open. Adjustments to closing prices to reflect fair value on affected foreign securities may be provided by an independent pricing service.

Other investments, including restricted securities and those financial instruments for which the above valuation procedures are inappropriate or are deemed not to reflect fair value are stated at fair value as determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee, established by the Fund’s Board.


Valuation Inputs

Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the Funds’ investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Level 1 -

Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2 - Prices determined using other significant observable inputs. These may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, and others. Level 2 securities include fixed-income securities that are valued using observable inputs as stated above.
Level 3 - Prices determined using other significant unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment, and would be based on the best information available.

Level 1 and Level 2 trading assets and trading liabilities, at fair value.

Common stocks and financial derivative instruments, such as futures contracts that are traded on a national securities exchange, are stated at the last reported sale or settlement price on the day of valuation. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Preferred securities and other equities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are also categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Fixed income securities including corporate, U.S. government agencies, and U.S. treasury obligations, are normally valued by pricing service providers that use broker dealer quotations, reported trades or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models. The service providers’ internal models use inputs that are observable such as issuer details, interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risks/spreads, default rates, and quoted prices for similar assets. Securities that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described above are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Fixed income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Investments in registered open-end investment management companies will be valued based upon the NAVs of such investments and are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost which approximates fair value. These investments are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Funds’ investments are summarized by level based on the inputs used to determine their values. U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) also requires all transfers between any levels to be disclosed. The end of period timing recognition has been adopted for the transfers between levels of each Fund’s assets and liabilities. During the period ended March 31, 2015, there were no transfers between levels. As of March 31, 2015, the investments were classified as described below (in thousands):

5. Securities and Other Investments

American Depositary Receipts (ADRs)

ADRs are depositary receipts for foreign issuers in registered form traded in U.S. securities markets. Depositary receipts may not be denominated in the same currency as the securities into which they may be converted. Investing in depositary receipts entails substantially the same risks as direct investment in foreign securities. There is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign stock exchanges, brokers and listed companies.

Treasury Inflation Protected Securities

Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. Interest is accrued based on the principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond is recorded as interest income, even though principal is not received until maturity.

Real Estate Investment Trusts

The Funds may own shares of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) which report information on the source of their distributions annually. The Funds re-characterizes distributions received from REIT investments based on information provided by the REITs into the following categories: ordinary income, long-term capital gains, and return of capital. If information is not available on a timely basis from the REITs, the re-characterization will be estimated based on available information which may include the previous year allocation. If new or additional information becomes available from the REITs at a later date, a re-characterization will be made the following year. These re-characterizations are not recorded for financial statement purposes, but as an adjustment to the calculation of taxable income.

Other Investment Company Securities and Other Exchange Traded Products

The Funds may invest in shares of other investment companies, including open-end funds, closed-end funds, business development companies, ETFs, exchange-traded notes (“ETNs”), unit investment trusts, and other investment companies of the Trust. The Funds may invest in investment company securities advised by the Manager or a sub-advisor. Investments in the securities of other investment companies may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company, a Fund becomes a shareholder of that investment company. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly will bear a Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment company, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders directly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. These other fees and expenses are reflected as Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses and are included in the Fees and Expenses Table for the Fund in its Prospectus, if applicable. Investments in other investment companies may involve the payment of substantial premiums above the value of such issuer’s portfolio securities.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts

The Flexible Bond Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge the exchange rate risk on investment transactions or to hedge the value of the Fund’s securities denominated in foreign currencies. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued at the forward exchange rate prevailing on the day of valuation. The Fund bears


the market risk that arises from changes in foreign exchange rates, and accordingly, the unrealized gain (loss) on these contracts is reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The Fund also bears the credit risk if the counterparty fails to perform under the contract.

For the period ended March 31, 2015, the Fund entered into foreign currency exchange contracts primarily for return enhancement and hedging.

Futures Contracts

Futures contracts are contracts to buy or sell a standard quantity of securities at a specified price on a future date. Certain Funds may enter into financial futures contracts as a method for keeping assets readily convertible to cash if needed to meet shareholder redemptions or for other needs while maintaining exposure to the stock or bond market, as applicable. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the possibility of illiquid markets or imperfect correlation between the values of the contracts and the underlying securities, or that the counterparty will fail to perform its obligations.

Upon entering into a futures contract, the Funds are required to set aside or deposit with a broker an amount, termed the initial margin, which typically represents 5% of the face value of the futures contract. The initial margin amount is reflected as a Deposit with broker for futures contracts on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Payments to and from the broker, known as variation margin, are required to be made on a daily basis as the price of the futures contract fluctuates. Changes in initial settlement values are accounted for as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are terminated, at which time realized gains and losses are recognized. Futures contracts are valued at the most recent settlement price established each day by the exchange on which they are traded.

During the period ended March 31, 2015 the Funds entered into future contracts primarily for return enhancement and exposing cash to markets.

6. Principal Risks

In the normal course of business the Funds trade financial instruments and enter into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists. Security values fluctuate (market risk) and may decline due to factors affecting securities markets in general, particular industries represented in the securities markets or conditions specifically related to a particular company. Failure of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit and counterparty risk), for example by not making principal and interest payments when due, reduces the value of the issuer’s debt and could reduce the Funds’ income. Similar to credit risk, the Funds may be exposed to counterparty risk, or the risk that an institution or other entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions will fail to make required payments or otherwise comply with the terms of the instrument, transaction or contract. The potential loss could exceed the value of the financial assets recorded in the financial statements. Some of the Funds’ investments may be illiquid and the Funds may not be able to vary the portfolio investments in response to changes in economic and other conditions. If a Fund is required to liquidate all or a portion of its investments quickly, the Fund may realize significantly less than the value at which it previously recorded those investments.

Market Risks

The Funds’ investments in financial derivatives and other financial instruments expose the Funds to various risks such as, but not limited to, interest rate, foreign currency and equity risks.

Interest rate risk is the risk that fixed income securities will decline in value because of changes in interest rates. As nominal interest rates rise, the value of certain fixed income securities held by the Fund is likely to decrease. A nominal interest rate can be described as the sum of a real interest rate and an expected inflation rate. Fixed income securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities with shorter durations. Duration is useful primarily as a measure of the sensitivity of a fixed income’s market price to interest rate (i.e. yield) movements.


The fair values of equities, such as common stocks and preferred securities or equity related investments such as futures, may decline due to general market conditions which are not specifically related to a particular company, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates or adverse investor sentiment generally. They may also decline due to factors which affect a particular industry or industries, such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry. Equity securities and equity related investments generally have greater market price volatility than fixed income securities.

Counterparty Credit Risk

A derivative contract may suffer a mark to market loss if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument. Losses can also occur if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.

With exchange traded futures, there is less counterparty credit risk to the Funds since the exchange or clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default. The clearinghouse stands between the buyer and the seller of the contract; therefore, the credit risk is limited to failure of the clearinghouse. While offset rights may exist under applicable law, a Fund does not have a contractual right of offset against a clearing broker or clearinghouse in the event of a default (including the bankruptcy or insolvency) of the clearing broker or clearinghouse. Additionally, credit risk exists in exchange traded futures with respect to initial and variation margin that is held in a clearing broker’s customer accounts. While clearing brokers are required to segregate customer margin from their own assets, in the event that a clearing broker becomes insolvent or goes into bankruptcy and at that time there is a shortfall in the aggregate amount of margin held by the clearing broker for all its clients, typically the shortfall would be allocated on a pro rata basis across all the clearing broker’s customers, potentially resulting in losses to the Funds.

Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Funds and cash collateral received from the counterparty, if any, is reported separately on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as Deposits with brokers for futures contracts and Payable to brokers for futures contracts, respectively. Non-cash collateral pledged by the Funds, if any, is noted in the Schedules of Investments. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a party is determined at the close of business of the Funds and additional required collateral is delivered to/pledged by the Funds on the next business day. To the extent amounts due to the Funds from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Funds bear the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. The Funds attempt to mitigate counterparty risk by only entering into agreements with counterparties that it believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties.

7. Securities Lending

The Stephens Small Cap Growth and Stephens Mid-Cap Growth Funds may lend its securities to qualified financial institutions, such as certain broker-dealers, to earn additional income. The borrowers are required to secure their loans continuously with collateral in an amount at least equal to the fair value of the securities loaned and initially in an amount at least equal to 102% of the fair value of domestic securities loaned and 105% of the fair value of international securities loaned. Collateral is monitored and marked to market daily. Daily mark to market amounts are required to be paid to the borrower or received from the borrower by the end of the following business day. This one day settlement for mark to market amounts may result in the collateral being temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan or temporarily more than the required minimum collateral.

To the extent that a loan is collateralized by cash, such cash collateral shall be invested by the securities lending agent (the “Agent”) in money market mutual funds, and other short-term investments, provided the investments meet certain quality and diversification requirements. Securities purchased with cash collateral proceeds are listed in the Fund’s Schedule of Investments and the collateral is shown on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as a payable.


Securities lending income is generated from the demand premium (if any) paid by the borrower to borrow a specific security and from the return on investment of cash collateral, reduced by negotiated rebate fees paid to the borrower and transaction costs. To the extent that a loan is secured by non-cash collateral, securities lending income is generated as a demand premium reduced by transaction costs. The Fund, the Agent, and the Manager retain 80%, 10% and 10%, respectively, of the income generated from securities lending.

While securities are on loan, the Fund continues to receive certain income associated with that security and any gain or loss in the market price that may occur during the term of the loan. In the case of domestic equities, the value of any dividend is received in the form of a substitute payment approximately equal to the dividend. In the case of foreign securities, a negotiated amount is received that is less than the actual dividend, but higher than the dividend amount minus the foreign tax that the Fund would be subject to on the dividend.

Securities lending transactions pose certain risks to the Fund, including that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or return the securities when due, that the value of the short-term investments will be less than the amount of cash collateral required to be returned to the borrower, that non-cash collateral may be subject to legal constraints in the event of a borrower bankruptcy, and that the cash collateral investments could become illiquid and unable to be used to return collateral to the borrower. The Fund could also experience delays and costs in gaining access to the collateral. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the cash collateral available for return to the borrower and any action which impairs its ability to liquidate non-cash collateral to satisfy a borrower default.

8. Federal Income and Excise Taxes

It is the policy of each Fund to qualify as a regulated investment company (“RIC”), by complying with all applicable provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and to make distribution of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes. For federal income tax purposes, each Fund is treated as a single entity for the purpose of determining such qualification.

The Funds do not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. Each of the tax years in the four year period ended December 31, 2013 remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. If applicable, the Funds recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in “Other expenses” on the Statements of Operations.

Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “RIC MOD”), net capital losses recognized by Funds in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 are carried forward indefinitely and retain their character as short-term and/or long-term losses. Prior to RIC MOD, net capital losses incurred by the Funds were carried forward for eight years and treated as short-term losses. RIC MOD requires that post-enactment net capital losses be used before pre-enactment net capital losses.
