The Advisor has entered into a contractual agreement with the Fund to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses in order to limit the Fund's Class N operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, dividend expenses on short sales, other investment-related costs and extraordinary expenses, such as litigation and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund's business) to 1.95% of average daily net assets until April 30, 2014. The Advisor may not terminate this arrangement prior to April 30, 2014 unless the investment advisory agreement is terminated. The Advisor is entitled to reimbursement for a period of three years subsequent to the Fund's Commencement of Operations on April 25, 2012 for previously waived fees and reimbursed expenses to the extent that the Fund's expense ratio is below the expense limitation.

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period (April 25, 2012 through October 31, 2012), the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 5% of the average value of its portfolio.

The Fund's investment strategies seek to provide broad exposure to commodities, provide attractive risk-adjusted returns with low correlations to traditional asset classes, maintain the inflation protection of commodities investing and profit in both up and down commodities markets. The Fund seeks to provide exposure to the commodity trading strategies of independent commodity trading advisors ("CTAs") selected by William Blair & Company, L.L.C. (the "Advisor") currently through derivative instruments (instruments whose values are based on, for example, indices, currencies or securities), and invests in fixed-income securities.

Commodity Investments. The Fund may invest in commodities through derivative instruments that provide exposure to commodity trading strategies of CTAs selected by the Advisor and/or by investing in limited liability companies, limited partnerships, corporations and other pooled investment vehicles (collectively, "Underlying Vehicles") managed by such CTAs. To a limited extent, the Fund may also invest in commodity-linked derivatives, such as futures, based on specific commodities or commodities indices and not tied to commodity trading strategies of CTAs. The derivative instruments in which the Fund invests, either directly or indirectly through investments in Underlying Vehicles, are used as a substitute for direct investments in commodities.

CTAs to whom the Fund will have exposure generally fall within one of the following three broad categories of managers:

Systematic: The CTA seeks to exploit trending behavior of futures markets over various time frames by utilizing quantitative systems.

Fundamental: The CTA conducts deep research into fundamental supply and demand factors that drive futures markets and uses specialized models, data sources and other tools to construct expectations of fundamental value.

Sector Specialist: The CTA employs specialized knowledge, research and analysis systems to seek value from niche markets.

Within these three broad categories of managers, the CTAs may employ the following strategies: trend following, trend anticipation, reversion, breakout, pattern recognition, high-frequency trading, commodities trading, and fundamentally-based trading. Commodities to which the CTAs may seek exposure include, but are not limited to, grains, meats, energies, metals, and softs (e.g., cotton, sugar or coffee). The CTAs execute their commodity trading strategies primarily by taking long and short positions in commodity futures or options on commodity futures. The CTAs may also use other types of derivatives including financial futures, options, forwards and swap contracts.

While there is no limit on the number of CTAs that the Fund may seek exposure to, under normal market conditions, the Advisor anticipates that the Fund will have exposure to between 6 and 15 CTAs. In selecting the CTAs, the Advisor considers a number of factors, including, but not limited to:

Validity of strategy

Historical performance

Quality of investment process

Organizational depth and stability

Depth of professional resources

Asset capacity

Risk profile

Vehicle quality

Risk management

The Advisor monitors the CTAs on an ongoing basis and may adjust the Fund's exposures to the CTAs from time to time. The Advisor seeks CTAs with well-defined strategies that are expected to exhibit low correlation to traditional market indices. The Advisor also seeks CTAs that display deep knowledge of and experience with the markets in which they operate and an understanding of the risks associated with investing in those markets. The Advisor monitors the market exposures of each CTA in order to manage the Fund's diversification in the commodities markets.

The Fund's commodity investments include derivative instruments that provide exposure to trading strategies of CTAs selected by the Advisor and/or Underlying Vehicles managed by such CTAs. The Advisor currently seeks exposure to CTA trading strategies through a total return swap (the "Swap"), a type of derivative instrument, based on a customized index (the "Index") designed to replicate the aggregate returns of the trading strategies of CTAs selected by the Advisor. The Swap is based on a notional amount agreed to by the Advisor and the counterparty, which may be adjusted from time to time. The notional amount of the Swap may exceed the net assets of the Fund. The Fund will request cash from the counterparty on a periodic basis representing the increase in the swap value and the Fund will pay cash to the counterparty or post collateral in an amount representing the decrease in the swap value during the five-year term of the Swap. Interim cash payments made by the counterparty to the Fund are subject to a fee. The Fund may terminate the Swap on one day's notice to the counterparty and the counterparty may terminate the Swap in certain instances.

The Index is calculated by the counterparty to the Swap. In calculating the Index, the counterparty calculates the returns of the CTAs included in the Index based on a notional allocation to each CTA. The sum of the notional allocations for each CTA included in the Index may exceed the net assets of the Fund and may also exceed the notional amount of the Swap. The Advisor may add or remove CTAs from the Index or increase or decrease the weighting given to a CTA included in the Index. The weightings given to each CTA included in the Index may differ and the exposure to each CTA trading strategy may be based on a different notional allocation.

The calculation of the Index includes a deduction for fees of the counterparty as well as fixed and performance fees of the CTAs. Because the Index is designed to replicate the returns of CTAs selected by the Advisor, the performance of the Fund depends on the ability of the CTAs to generate returns in excess of the costs of the Index. The fees of the counterparty and the fixed fees of the CTAs are calculated based on the notional allocations to the CTAs included in the Index. To the extent the aggregate notional allocations to the CTAs included in the Index exceed the net assets of the Fund, the deduction from the Index for the fees of the counterparty and the fixed fees of the CTAs will be greater as a percentage of the Fund's net assets than the deduction would be if the aggregate notional allocations to the CTAs included in the Index were equal to or less than the net assets of the Fund. The calculation of the Index also may include a deduction for the performance fees of the individual CTAs in an amount not to exceed 20%. The deduction for performance fees in the Index is based on the performance results of each individual CTA's trading strategy represented in the Index. Accordingly, a performance fee for one or more CTA trading strategies represented in the Index may be deducted in calculating the Index even if the aggregate returns of the trading strategies of the CTAs are negative. During the period from April 25, 2012 (commencement of operations) through October 31, 2012 (the Fund's fiscal year end), the total fees of the Fund's Swap were $185,716, $89,660 of which were performance fees. The total fees of the Fund's Swap will vary depending on the notional allocations to the CTAs included in the Index and the performance results of the CTA trading strategies.

The level of the Fund's exposure to the commodities markets through the Swap will depend on the notional allocations to the CTAs included in the Index and the notional amount of the Swap. In addition to the Swap, the use of derivatives in Underlying Vehicles by the CTAs and any other commodity-linked derivative instruments invested in by the Fund, will also increase the Fund's exposure to the commodities markets and, as a result, the Fund's investment performance could be significantly impacted, both positively and negatively, by movements in the commodities markets.

The Fund's investments in the Swap, any Underlying Vehicles and other commodity-linked derivative instruments are made through William Blair CLS Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Fund organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the "Commodity Fund Subsidiary"). The Underlying Vehicles through which the Commodity Fund Subsidiary may invest may include one or more Underlying Vehicles that are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Commodity Fund Subsidiary. The Commodity Fund Subsidiary may also hold fixed income securities, some of which may serve as margin or collateral for the Commodity Fund Subsidiary's derivative positions. In accordance with federal income tax laws applicable to regulated investment companies, the Fund may only invest up to 25% of the value of its total assets in the Commodity Fund Subsidiary. However, the Commodity Fund Subsidiary's investments in the Swap, Underlying Vehicles, which use derivatives, and investments in commodity-linked derivatives will provide the Fund with leveraged exposure to the commodities markets in an amount greater than 25% of the value of its total assets. The Advisor, as part of its overall advisory services to the Fund, manages the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Commodity Fund Subsidiary and administers the affairs of the Subsidiary. The Advisor receives no additional compensation for providing management and administrative services to the Commodity Fund Subsidiary. In managing the assets of the Commodity Fund Subsidiary, the Advisor applies the Fund's investment policies and restrictions and the Fund's compliance policies and procedures generally as if such assets were held directly by the Fund.

Fixed Income Investments. Assets not allocated to the Fund's commodity investments are invested in fixed income securities. The Fund's fixed income securities are U.S. dollar denominated and may include: (1) obligations of or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities; (2) corporate debt securities issued by domestic or foreign companies; (3) mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities, which are debt securities issued by a corporation, trust or custodian, or by a U.S. Government agency or instrumentality, that are collateralized (i.e., secured as to payment of interest and/or principal) by a portfolio or pool of assets, such as mortgages, debit balances on credit card accounts or U.S. Government securities; and (4) money market instruments, including, but not limited to, those issued by domestic companies, the U.S. Government and its agencies and instrumentalities, U.S. banks and municipalities. The Fund may invest in money market mutual funds to the extent permitted by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and the rules and regulations thereunder.

The Fund generally purchases investment grade fixed income securities rated in one of the highest four categories by at least one of the following three nationally recognized statistical rating organizations: Fitch Ratings, Moody's Investors Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor's, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. However, the Fund may also purchase below investment grade securities (e.g., high yield or junk bonds), which are securities rated below Baa/BBB.

In choosing fixed income securities for the Fund, the Advisor emphasizes individual security selection, as well as shifts in the Fund's portfolio among market sectors. To a lesser extent, the Advisor actively manages the Fund's average duration. However, the Fund does not have limits on duration, and the Fund's duration will change over time. Duration measures the average period remaining until the discounted value of the amounts due (principal and interest) under an instrument are to be paid, rather than the instrument's stated final maturity. When applied to the Fund, for example, a portfolio duration of five years means that if interest rates increased by 1%, the value of the portfolio would decrease by approximately 5%.

The following is a summary of the principal risks of investing in the Fund. The Fund may be subject to the following risks directly through investment in individual securities or indirectly through various instruments, including derivative instruments or Underlying Vehicles.

The Fund involves a high level of risk and may not be appropriate for everyone. You could lose money by investing in the Fund. There can be no assurance that the Fund's investment objective will be achieved. The Fund is not intended to be a complete investment program. Separate accounts managed by the Advisor may invest in the Fund and, therefore, the Advisor at times may have discretionary authority over a significant portion of the assets in the Fund. In such instances, the Advisor's decision to make changes to or rebalance its clients' allocations in the separate accounts may substantially impact the Fund's performance. The Fund is designed for long-term investors.

Aggressive Investment Technique Risk. The Fund may use investment techniques and financial instruments that may be considered aggressive, including but not limited to investments in the Swap and Underlying Vehicles and the use of futures contracts, options on futures contracts, securities and indices, forward contracts, swap agreements and similar instruments. Such techniques may also include taking short positions or using other techniques that are intended to provide inverse exposure to a particular market or other asset class, as well as leverage, which can expose the Fund to potentially dramatic changes (losses or gains). These techniques may expose the Fund to potentially dramatic changes (losses) in the value of certain of its portfolio holdings.

Commodities Market Risk. The value of the Fund's investments may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. The value of an investment may decline due to factors affecting commodities markets generally or particular segments of the commodities markets. The Advisor may favor commodities markets or asset classes that perform poorly relative to other commodities markets and asset classes. To the extent that the Commodity Fund Subsidiary's assets are invested in commodities markets or asset classes that underperform the general stock market, the Fund would perform poorly relative to a portfolio invested primarily in the general stock market.

Commodity Risk. Investing in the commodities markets and investing in commodity-linked derivative instruments, such as futures and swaps, may subject the Fund to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. The commodities markets have experienced periods of extreme volatility and future market conditions may result in rapid and substantial valuation increases and decreases. The value of commodities and commodity contracts may be affected by a variety of factors, including global supply and demand, changes in interest rates, commodity index volatility, and factors affecting a particular industry or commodity, such as weather, and world events and economic, political and regulatory developments. Certain commodities or natural resources may be produced in a limited number of countries and may be controlled by a small number of producers. Political, economic and supply related events in such countries could have a significant impact on the value of such commodities.

Counterparty and Contractual Default Risk. The Fund's investments in derivatives and other financial instruments that involve counterparties subject the Fund to the risk that the counterparty could default on its obligations under the agreement, either through the counterparty's failure or inability to perform its obligations or bankruptcy.

Credit Risk. The value of the Fund's fixed income securities is subject to the ability of the issuers of such securities to make interest payments or payment at maturity. The credit ratings of issuers could change and negatively affect the Fund's share price or yield.

Currency Risk. The value of the Fund's portfolio may be affected by changes in exchange rates or control regulations. If a local currency gains against the U.S. dollar, the value of the security increases in U.S. dollar terms. If a local currency declines against the U.S. dollar, the value of the security decreases in U.S. dollar terms.

Derivatives Risk. Risks associated with derivatives may include the risk that the derivative is not well correlated with the commodity, security, index or currency to which it relates, the risk that derivatives may not have the intended effects and may result in losses or missed opportunities, the risk that a counterparty is unwilling or unable to meet its obligations, and the risk that the derivative transaction could expose the Fund to the effects of leverage, which could increase the Fund's exposure to the market and magnify potential losses. There is no guarantee that derivatives, to the extent employed, will have the intended effect, and their use could cause lower returns or even losses to the Fund. The use of over-the-counter ("OTC") derivatives subjects the Fund to credit risk of the counterparty. The use of certain derivatives provides exposure to the underlying market or other reference asset in excess of the cash investment of the Fund. The use of derivatives can magnify gains and losses.

Derivatives are also subject to liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that a derivative instrument cannot be sold, closed out or replaced quickly at or very close to its fundamental value. Generally, exchange contracts are very liquid because the exchange clearinghouse is the counterparty of every contract. OTC transactions are less liquid than exchange-traded derivatives since they often can be closed out only with the other party to the transaction. The Fund's ability to sell or close out a position in an instrument prior to expiration or maturity depends on the existence of a liquid secondary market or, in the absence of such a market, the ability and willingness of the counterparty to enter into a transaction closing out the position. Therefore, there is no assurance that any derivatives position can be sold or closed out at a time and price that is favorable to the Fund.

Emerging Markets Risk. Foreign investment risk is typically intensified in emerging markets, which are the less developed and developing nations.

Foreign Investment Risk. The risks of foreign investments may include less publicly available information, less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign stock exchanges, brokers and issuers, share registration and custody, a lack of uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards, practices and requirements, the possibility of expropriation, seizure or nationalization, confiscatory taxation, limits on repatriation, adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, political instability, restrictions on the flow of international capital, imposition of foreign withholding taxes, fluctuating currencies, inflation, difficulty in obtaining and enforcing judgments against foreign entities or other adverse political, social or diplomatic developments that could affect the Fund's investments. Foreign investments may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than the securities of U.S. companies.

Geographic Risk. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in any one country, the Fund will be subject to greater risk of loss or volatility than if the Fund always maintained wide geographic diversity among the countries in which it invests. Investing in any one country makes the Fund more vulnerable to the risks of adverse securities markets, exchange rates and social, political, regulatory and economic events in that one country.

Interest Rate Risk. Normally, the values of fixed income securities vary inversely with changes in prevailing interest rates. The value of the Fund's securities tends to decrease when interest rates rise and tends to increase when interest rates fall. Securities with longer durations held by the Fund are generally more sensitive to interest rate changes. As such, securities with longer durations are usually more volatile than those with shorter durations.

Leverage Risk. The Fund's investments in derivatives, including the Swap, or exposure to derivatives through Underlying Vehicles expose the Fund to leverage inherent in such instruments. Such leveraged investments can amplify the effects of market volatility on the Fund's net asset value (i.e., relatively small market movements may result in large changes in the Fund's net asset value) and make the Fund's returns more volatile. At times, the Fund's leveraged investments may cause the Fund's investment exposure to exceed its net assets and could cause the Fund to experience substantial losses, including the risk of total loss, if the market moves against the Fund. The use of leveraged investments may also cause the Fund to liquidate portfolio positions when it would not be advantageous to do so in order to satisfy its obligations or to meet asset segregation requirements. The use of leveraged investments may also cause the Fund to have higher expenses than those of mutual funds that do not use such techniques.

Liquidity Risk. Investments that trade less can be more difficult or more costly to buy, or to sell, than more liquid or active investments. It may not be possible to sell or otherwise dispose of illiquid securities both at the price and within a time period deemed desirable by the Fund. The Fund's investment in the Swap and Underlying Vehicle securities are subject to liquidity risk.

Mortgage-Backed/Asset-Backed Securities Risk. The value of the Fund's mortgage-backed or asset-backed securities may be affected by, among other things, changes in interest rates, factors concerning the interests in and structure of the issuer or the originator of the mortgages, the creditworthiness of the entities that provide any supporting letters of credit, surety bonds or other credit enhancements or the market's assessment of the quality of underlying assets.

New Fund Risk. Investors in the Fund bear the risk that the Fund may not be successful in implementing its investment strategies, may be unable to implement certain of its investment strategies or may fail to attract sufficient assets, any of which could result in the Fund being liquidated and terminated at any time without shareholder approval and at a time that may not be favorable for all shareholders. Such a liquidation could have negative tax consequences for shareholders and will cause shareholders to incur expenses of liquidation.

Non-Diversified Risk. The Fund is classified as non-diversified under the 1940 Act. This means that the Fund may invest in securities of relatively few issuers. Thus, the performance of one or a small number of portfolio holdings may have a significant impact on the overall performance of the Fund.

Private Placement Risk. Investments in private placements may be difficult to sell at the time and at the price desired by the Fund; companies making private placements may make less information available than publicly offered companies; and privately placed securities are more difficult to value than publicly traded securities. These factors may have a negative effect on the performance of the Fund. Securities acquired through private placements are not registered for resale in the general securities market and may be classified as illiquid.

Regulatory Risk. Future regulatory developments could impact the Fund's ability to invest in certain derivatives. It is possible that government regulation of various types of derivative instruments, including futures, options and swap agreements, may limit or prevent the Fund from using such instruments as a part of its investment strategies, and could ultimately prevent the Fund from being able to achieve its investment objective. It is impossible to fully predict the effects of past, present or future legislation and regulation in this area, but the effects could be substantial and adverse. There is a likelihood of future regulatory developments altering, perhaps to a material extent, the nature of an investment in the Fund or the ability of the Fund to continue to implement its investment strategies. It is possible that legislative and regulatory activity could limit or restrict the ability of the Fund to use certain instruments as a part of its investment strategies. Limits or restrictions applicable to the counterparties with which the Fund engages in derivative transactions (for example, the so-called "Volcker Rule" prescribed by the Dodd-Frank Act) could also prevent the Fund from using certain instruments, including the Swap.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "Dodd-Frank Act"), which was signed into law on July 21, 2010, sets forth a new regulatory framework for OTC derivatives, including financial instruments, such as swaps, in which the Fund may invest. The Dodd-Frank Act grants significant new authority to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC") to regulate OTC derivatives and market participants. The implementation of the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act by the SEC and the CFTC could adversely affect the Fund's ability to pursue its investment strategies.

Short Position Risk. The Fund will incur a loss as a result of a short position in a financial instrument if the price of the financial instrument increases in value between the date the short position is established and the date on which the Fund enters into an offsetting transaction. Short positions may be considered speculative transactions and involve special risks. The Fund's losses are potentially unlimited in a short position transaction.

Subsidiary Risk. The Commodity Fund Subsidiary is not registered under the 1940 Act and is not subject to the investor protections of the 1940 Act. By investing in the Commodity Fund Subsidiary, the Fund is exposed to the risks associated with the Commodity Fund Subsidiary's investments. In addition, the Fund has agreed to guarantee the obligations of the Commodity Fund Subsidiary to the Swap counterparty. Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands could result in the inability of the Fund and/or the Commodity Fund Subsidiary to operate as described in the Prospectus and could adversely affect the Fund.

Swap Risk. Swap agreements are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the swap will default on its obligation to pay the Fund and the risk that the Fund will not be able to meet its obligations to pay the counterparty to the swap. Swap agreements may also involve fees, commissions or other costs that may reduce the Fund's gains from a swap agreement or may cause the Fund to lose money. As described in the Principal Investment Strategies section, the Fund currently invests through the Commodity Fund Subsidiary in the Swap. The Fund's investment in the Swap is subject to Leverage Risk as described above because the notional amount of the Swap and/or the aggregate notional allocations to the CTAs included in the Index may exceed the net assets of the Fund. The Fund's returns are reduced or its losses increased by the costs associated with the Swap, which are the fees deducted by the counterparty in the calculation of the Index. The costs associated with the Swap, which may be significant, will vary depending on the notional allocations to the CTAs included in the Index and the performance of the CTA trading strategies and are separate from and in addition to the Fund's operating expenses shown in the Annual Fund Operating Expenses table. In addition, there is the risk that the Swap may be terminated by the Fund or the counterparty in accordance with its terms or as a result of regulatory changes as described in Regulatory Risk above. If the Swap were to terminate, the Fund may be unable to implement its investment strategies with respect to commodities investments and the Fund may not be able to seek to achieve its investment objective.

Tax Risk. In order for the Fund to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the Fund must derive at least 90% of its gross income each taxable year from certain qualifying sources of income ("qualifying income"). The Fund's intention to qualify as a regulated investment company may limit its ability to make certain investments including, without limitation, investments in certain commodity-linked derivatives, since income from commodity-linked derivatives may not constitute qualifying income to the Fund. Receipt of such income could cause the Fund to fail to qualify as a regulated investment company and be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income at corporate rates. The Fund has applied for a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") confirming that income derived from the Fund's investment in the Commodity Fund Subsidiary will constitute qualifying income to the Fund. The IRS has currently suspended the issuance of such private letter rulings. There can be no assurance that the IRS will grant the private letter ruling requested by the Fund. The Fund currently is relying on advice of tax counsel with respect to the tax treatment of income from the Commodity Fund Subsidiary. If the IRS does not grant the private letter ruling request, there is a risk that the IRS could assert that income derived from the Fund's investment in the Commodity Fund Subsidiary does not constitute qualifying income to the Fund, in which case, the Fund could fail to qualify as a regulated investment company and could be subject to federal income tax at the fund level. Should the IRS take action that adversely affects the tax treatment of income derived from the Fund's investment in the Commodity Fund Subsidiary, the Fund could be limited in its ability to implement its current investment strategies and the Fund may need to significantly change its investment strategies, which could adversely affect the Fund. The Fund also may incur transaction and other costs to comply with any new or additional guidance from the IRS. The tax treatment of commodity-linked derivatives and income from the Commodity Fund Subsidiary also may be adversely affected by future legislation, Treasury Regulations and/or guidance issued by the IRS that could affect the character, timing and/or amount of the Fund's taxable income or any gains and distributions made by the Fund.

Underlying Vehicle Risk. Each Underlying Vehicle is subject to specific risks, depending on the strategy and investment techniques employed by the CTA. These risks, as described herein, include Aggressive Investment Technique Risk, Commodities Market Risk, Commodity Risk, Derivatives Risk and Leverage Risk and may also include Currency Risk, Emerging Markets Risk, Foreign Investment Risk, Liquidity Risk, Short Position Risk and Swap Risk. By investing in the Fund, shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear the fees and expenses of any Underlying Vehicles, including fees paid to the CTAs, in addition to the Fund's direct fees and expenses. As a result, the cost of investing in the Fund will be higher than the cost of investing directly in the Underlying Vehicles and may be higher than other mutual funds that invest directly in the types of derivatives held by the Underlying Vehicles. CTAs will charge fees for the services they provide to the Underlying Vehicles. These fees may be fixed and/or performance-based. Fees charged by the CTAs typically are based on the leveraged account size and not the actual cash invested in the Underlying Vehicle. Fixed fees may range from 1% to 3% of the leveraged account size. To the extent the aggregate leveraged account sizes of the Underlying Vehicles exceed the net assets of the Fund, the fixed fees of the CTAs would exceed 3% as a percentage of the Fund's net assets. Performance-based fees may range from 15% to 30% of each Underlying Vehicle's returns and are computed for each Underlying Vehicle without regard to the performance of the Fund or other Underlying Vehicles. Accordingly, the Fund may pay a performance fee to a CTA with positive investment performance, even if the Fund's overall returns are flat or negative.

The bar chart and table showing the Fund’s annual returns and average annual total returns are not included because the Fund does not have annual returns for a full calendar year.
