Fair Value Information:

 

GAAP establishes the following fair value hierarchy that categorizes the inputs used to measure fair value. Level 1 includes quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical financial instruments that the Series’ can access at the reporting date. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar financial instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar financial instruments in inactive markets, interest rates and yield curves, implied volatilities, and credit spreads). Level 3 includes unobservable inputs (including the Valuation Designee’s own assumptions in determining fair value). A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
