[1] Since the Fund is newly organized, "Other Expenses" are based on estimated expenses for the current fiscal year.
[2] The Fund's administrator has entered into a Fund Accounting and Administration Agreement with the Fund that covers the regular operating expenses of the Fund for an inclusive fee of 0.28% (with the exception of management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, expenses on short sales, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses), even if such operating expenses exceed the inclusive fee. The agreement runs through June 30, 2014 and can only be terminated prior to that date at the discretion of the Fund's Board of Trustees. The Fund's administrator cannot recoup from the Fund any regular operating expenses in excess of the inclusive fee. In conjunction with the Fund Accounting and Administration Agreement, the Advisor has entered into an Operating Plan with the Fund's administrator, also through June 30, 2014, under which it has agreed to make payments to the administrator when the Fund is at lower asset levels and to assume certain expenses of the Fund outlined in the Operating Plan. The Operating Plan can only be terminated prior to the conclusion of the current term with the approval of the Fund's Board of Trustees. The Advisor cannot recoup from the Fund any amounts paid under the Operating Plan.
[3] "Acquired Fund" means any investment company in which the Fund invests or has invested during the period. Since the Fund is newly organized, "Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses" are based on estimated expenses for the current fiscal year.
