As
a result of an expense limitation arrangement, the ratio of total annual fund operating expenses, other than
interest,
brokerage commissions, taxes, extraordinary expenses and acquired fund fees and expenses, to average
net

reimbursing
expenses, exceeded the expense limitation as a result of interest expense. This expense limitation
arrangement
cannot be terminated prior to December 31, 2027 without the Board of Trustees’ consent. In addition,
the
manager has agreed to waive the Fund’s management fee to an extent sufficient to offset the net management
fee
payable in connection with any investment in an affiliated money market fund. |

As
a result of an expense limitation arrangement, the ratio of total annual fund operating expenses, other than

events
occurring after the close of the principal market of the security but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s
net
asset value, certain securities were classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. |
