The value of asset-backed securities may be affected by, among other factors, changes in: interest rates, the market’s assessment of the quality of the underlying assets, the creditworthiness of the servicer for the underlying assets, information concerning the originator of the underlying assets, or the creditworthiness or rating of the entities that provide any supporting letters of credit, surety bonds, derivative instruments or other credit enhancement.

The value of asset-backed securities also will be affected by the exhaustion, termination or expiration of any credit enhancement. The Fund has investments in below-investment grade debt securities, including mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. Below-investment grade securities involve a higher degree of credit risk than investment grade debt securities. In the event of an unanticipated default, the Fund would experience a reduction in its income, a decline in the market value of the securities so affected and a decline in the NAV of its shares. During an economic downturn or period of rising interest rates, highly leveraged and other below-investment grade issuers frequently experience financial stress that could adversely affect its ability to service principal and interest payment obligations, to meet projected business goals and to obtain additional financing.

The market prices of below-investment grade debt securities are generally less sensitive to interest rate changes than higher-rated investments but are more sensitive to adverse economic or political changes or individual developments specific to the issuer than higher-rated investments. Periods of economic or political uncertainty and change can be expected to result in significant volatility of prices for these securities. Rating services consider these securities to be speculative in nature.

Below-investment grade securities may be subject to market conditions, events of default or other circumstances which cause them to be considered “distressed securities.” Distressed securities frequently do not produce income while they are outstanding. The Fund may be required to bear certain extraordinary expenses in order to protect and recover its investments in certain distressed securities. Therefore, to the extent the Fund seeks capital growth through investment in such securities, the Fund’s ability to achieve current income for its shareholders may be diminished. The Fund is also subject to significant uncertainty as to when and in what manner and for what value the obligations evidenced by distressed securities will eventually be satisfied (e.g., through a liquidation of the obligor’s assets, an exchange offer or plan of reorganization involving the securities or a payment of some amount in satisfaction of the obligation). In addition, even if an exchange offer is made or a plan of reorganization is adopted with respect to distressed securities held by the Fund, there can be no assurance that the securities or other assets received by the Fund in connection with such exchange offer or plan of reorganization will not have a lower value or income potential than may have been anticipated when the investment was made. Moreover, any securities received by the Fund upon completion of an exchange offer or plan of reorganization may be restricted as to resale. As a result of the Fund’s participation in negotiations with respect to any exchange offer or plan of reorganization with respect to an issuer of such securities, the Fund may be restricted from disposing of distressed securities.

The Fund has 1,000,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common shares authorized. Of the shares outstanding at June 30, 2026 for the Fund, the Adviser owns 100,051 shares. The Fund’s Board is authorized to classify and reclassify any unissued common shares. The common shares have no preemptive, conversion, exchange or redemption rights. All common shares have equal voting, dividend, distribution and liquidation rights. The common shares are fully paid and non-assessable. Common shareholders are entitled to one vote per share and all voting rights for the election of directors are non-cumulative.

The Fund has filed a registration statement using the “shelf” registration process (the “Shelf Registration Statement”), which became effective on April 12, 2024. The Shelf Registration Statement permits the Fund to offer, from time to time, in one or more offerings, common shares or preferred shares, or subscription rights to purchase the Fund’s common shares or preferred shares. As of June 30, 2026, the Fund has not offered common shares or preferred shares, or subscription rights to purchase the Fund’s common shares or preferred shares, pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement.

The Fund did not issue any shares and no deferred offering costs were amortized during the year ended December 31, 2025 and period ended June 30, 2026.

The Board has approved a share repurchase plan. Under the current share repurchase plan, as of June 30, 2026, the Fund may purchase in the open market up to 10% of its outstanding common shares. The current share repurchase plan will remain in effect until December 5, 2026. The amount and timing of the repurchases will be at the discretion of the Fund’s management, subject to market conditions and investment considerations. There is no assurance that the Fund will purchase shares at any particular discount level or in any particular amounts. The Board authorized the share repurchase program as a result of its review of the options available to enhance shareholder value and reduce any potential discount between the market price of the Fund’s shares and the net asset value per share. During period ended June 30, 2026 and year ended December 31, 2025, no shares were repurchased by the Fund.
