* For centrally cleared swaps, when a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of the swap contract, the Fund as a seller of credit protection will either pay a net amount equal to the par value of the defaulted reference entity and deliver the reference entity or pay a net amount equal to the par value of the defaulted reference entity less its recovery value.

 

** For centrally cleared swaps, implied credit spread, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the fair value of the credit default swap contracts as of period-end will serve as an indicator of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood of risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of the referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/ selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the contract. Generally, wider credit spreads represent a perceived deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the swap contract.

 

*** For centrally cleared swaps, the notional amount represents the maximum potential the Fund may receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of the swap contract.
