(a) | Investment Valuation. Each security owned by the Fund, including long and short positions of common stock and real estate investment trusts, that is listed on a securities exchange, except those listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”), is valued at its last sale price on that exchange on the date as of which assets are valued. When the security is listed on more than one exchange, the Fund will use the price of the exchange that the Fund generally considers to be the principal exchange on which the stock is traded. |

(b) | Short Positions. The Fund may sell a security it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the fair value of that security. When the Fund sells a security short, it must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the broker-dealer through which it made the short sale. A gain, limited to the price at which the Fund sold the security short, or a loss, unlimited in size, will be recognized upon the termination of a short sale. For financial statement purposes, an amount equal to the settlement amount is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the short positions. Subsequent fluctuations in the market prices of the securities sold, but not yet purchased, may require purchasing the securities at prices which could differ from the amount reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund is liable for any dividends or interest payable on securities while those securities are in a short position. Such amounts are recorded on the ex-dividend date as a dividend expense, and interest expense is accrued daily. As collateral for its short positions, the Fund is required to maintain segregated assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. The segregated assets are valued consistent with Note 2a above. The amount of segregated assets is required to be adjusted daily to the extent additional collateral is required based on the change in fair value of the securities sold short. The Fund’s securities sold short and deposits for short sales are held with one major securities broker-dealer. The Fund does not require this broker-dealer to maintain collateral in support of the receivable for proceeds on securities sold short. |
24 |
(c) | Federal Income Taxes. The Fund complies with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and makes the requisite distributions of income and capital gains to their shareholders sufficient to relieve them from all or substantially all federal income taxes. Therefore, no federal income tax provision has been provided. |
(d) | Distributions to Shareholders. The Fund will distribute any net investment income and any net capital gains at least annually. Distributions from net realized gains for book purposes may include short- term capital gains. All short-term capital gains are included in ordinary income for tax purposes. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Fund may also pay a special distribution at the end of the calendar year to comply with federal tax requirements. |
(e) | Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
(f) | Share Valuation. The NAV per share of the Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the fair value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) by the total number of shares outstanding for the Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. The Fund’s shares will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange is closed for trading. The Fund does not charge a redemption fee, and therefore the offering and redemption price per share are equal to the Fund’s NAV per share. |
(g) | Allocation of Income, Expenses and Gains/Losses. Expenses associated with a specific fund in the Trust are charged to that fund. Common Trust expenses are typically allocated evenly between the funds of the Trust, or by other equitable means. |
(h) | Other. Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Fund determines the gain or loss from investment transactions on the identified cost basis by comparing original cost of the security lot sold with the net sale proceeds. Dividend income and expense is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income and expense is recognized on an accrual basis. Dividend income from real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) is recognized on the ex-date and included in dividend income. The calendar year-end classification of distributions received from REITs during the fiscal year are reported subsequent to year end; accordingly, the Fund estimates the character of REIT distributions based on the most recent information available and adjusts for actual classifications in the calendar year the information is reported. |
