The Fund’s investment advisor has agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to limit the Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding interest, brokerage, extraordinary expenses and acquired fund fees and expenses, if any) to 0.95% of average daily net assets with respect to Class I Shares and 1.15% of average daily net assets with respect to Class N shares. This contractual fee waiver/expense reimbursement will remain in place through March 1, 2022 and before that date the investment advisor may not terminate this arrangement without approval of the Board of Directors. At the conclusion of this period, the Fund’s investment advisor may, in its sole discretion, terminate the contractual fee waiver/expense reimbursement or, with the Board of Directors’ approval, extend or modify that arrangement.

The “Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement” does not correlate to the corresponding ratio included in the Fund’s Financial Highlights for each class of shares because the contractual fee waiver/expense reimbursement was changed subsequent to the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020 and was not in effect for that fiscal year.
