1. Security Valuation
           
             
Exchange-listed securities are generally valued at the last sales price reported by the principal security exchange on which the issue is traded, or if no sale
 
is reported, the mean between the latest bid and ask price unless the Funds' investment advisor believes that the mean does not represent a fair value, in
 
which case the securities are valued as set forth below. Securities listed on NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Demand notes,
 
commercial paper, U.S. Treasury Bills and warrants are stated at fair value using market prices if available, or a pricing service when such prices are
 
believed to reflect fair value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by
 
the Funds' advisor under procedures established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors of the Fund. The Funds' fair value procedures allow
 
for the use of certain methods performed by the Funds' advisor to value those securities for which market quotations are not readily available, at a price
 
that a Fund might reasonably expect to receive upon a sale of such securities. For example, these methods may be based on a multiple of earnings, or a discount
 
from market of a similarly freely traded security, or a yield to maturity with respect to debt issues, or a combination of these and other methods.
   
             
The Funds' may invest in warrants or rights (other than those acquired in units or attached to other securities), which entitle the purchaser to buy
 
equity securities at a specific price for a specific period of time.  Warrants and rights have no voting rights, receive no dividends and have no rights with
 
respect to the assets of the issuer.
           
             
General Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") establishes an authoritative definition of fair value and sets out a hierarchy for measuring fair value.
 
GAAP also requires additional disclosures about the various inputs used to develop the measurements of fair value.  These inputs are summarized in the
 
three broad levels listed 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 Funds' own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
   
             
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The
 
following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds' securities as of July 31, 2021:
