Shareholder Letter
March 31, 2013
Dear Shareholder,
Please find enclosed the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013.
Overall, since our last annual report in 2012, Versus Capital Multi-Manager Real Estate Income Fund (the “Fund”) has delivered on its objectives of providing solid income, capital preservation and modest appreciation to its investors. With real estate fundamentals improving and tight supply across asset types, our outlook for the Fund remains positive.
Since the Fund began investing in July of 2012, over the 9 month period ending March 31st, 2013 the Fund delivered a 6.50% and a 5.42% total return for the class I and class F shares respectively. The Fund has paid three dividends totaling $0.98 and $0.86 per share for the class I and Class F shares, respectively. This represents an annualized yield of 5.1% and 4.5% for the class I and class F shares, respectively, based on each share class’ NAV as of March 31, 2013.
The real estate market continued on an upward path during the last year. The U.S. economy delivered modest growth while shrugging off the fiscal cliff, uninspiring job growth, and the negative impacts of the sequester. With this economic back-drop, real estate fundamentals continued their slow and steady improvement during the last year. Demand for all of the major real estate asset types improved, while supply remained at historic lows.
The office real estate market recovery continued during the year with positive absorption. The vacancy rate dropped to 15.3% at the end of 3/31/2013 led by improvement in downtown submarkets (12.4%) and those sub-markets that have experienced the most meaningful job growth as a result of concentrations in the technology and energy sectors . We expect this slow and steady improvement to continue during 2013 and move toward the long-term average of 14.8%¹. With very limited new supply and improving demand, we expect to see rent growth beginning to enter the office market.
Apartments continued their rebound from market lows with another solid year of performance. With vacancy at 5.9%, Apartment continue to be the only property type with vacancy below the long-term average². Rent growth and vacancy improvements have begun to decelerate as new supply is coming online.
The industrial real estate market, which has been slow to recover, has seen a stronger pick-up in demand and the last two quarters have delivered relatively strong positive absorption. Vacancy rates dropped to 12.3% and the coastal markets are starting to experience rent growth¹. Supply is still muted for industrial real estate, but if the pace of the recovery continues, supply can start to enter this market fairly quickly.
Retail real estate continued on a slow but improving path during the year as vacancy rates decreased to 12.5%¹. The consumer has been resilient, and should the housing recovery continue to take hold, we expect the demand for retail space to increase. That said, the retail real estate market is still working against the headwind of the shift to e-commerce. Like other asset types, retail real estate supply has been limited, and, other than single tenant build-to-suit, we expect new supply to be nominal in 2013.
Again, speaking for the entire team at Versus Capital, we thank you for your investment and we look forward to a long and successful relationship.
Sincerely,
Mark Quam
Chairman and CEO

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Versus Capital Multi-Manager Real Estate Income Fund LLC
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Versus Capital Multi-Manager Real Estate Income Fund LLC (the “Fund”), including the portfolio of investments, as of March 31, 2013, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, and the changes in net assets and financial highlights for the year then ended and for the period from December 9, 2011 (commencement of operations) through March 31, 2012. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of March 31, 2013, by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Versus Capital Multi-Manager Real Estate Income Fund LLC as of March 31, 2013, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, and the changes in its net assets and its financial highlights for the year then ended and for the period from December 9, 2011 (commencement of operations) through March 31, 2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION
Versus Capital Multi-Manager Real Estate Income Fund LLC (the“Fund”) is a Delaware limited liability company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a non-diversified, continuously offered, closed-end management investment company that provides liquidity through a quarterly repurchase policy. The Fund’s investment objectives are to seek consistent current income, capital preservation and long-term capital appreciation. The Fund attempts to achieve these objectives by allocating its capital among a select group of institutional asset managers (the “Investment Managers”) with expertise in managing portfolios of real estate and real estate-related investments. The Fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest without par value up to a total of $750,000,000. The Fund was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 9, 2011, (the “Effective Date”) and accordingly, the Fund commenced its investment operations.
The Fund is currently registered to offer two classes of shares, the F-Share Class and the I-Share Class. The F-Share Class (the “F-Shares”) is subject to an early withdrawal charge of 2.00% of the aggregate net asset value (“NAV”) of Class F-Shares repurchased during the first year following an initial purchase.
On July 12, 2012, the Fund launched a new “I” share class (the “I-Shares”). The I-Shares are designed for institutional investors and registered investment advisors (RIAs) purchasing I-Shares on behalf of their clients where the RIAs have executed a letter of intent acknowledging their intent to aggregate at least $1,000,000 in client I-Share purchases. The I-Shares offer the same benefits as the F Shares however, the I-Shares do not charge a distribution fee and do not carry an early withdraw charge.
NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
Securities Valuation - Investments in securities that are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) are valued, except as indicated below, at the last sale price reflected at the close of the NYSE. If there has been no sale on such day, the securities are valued at the mean of the closing bid and ask prices for the day or, if no ask price is available, at the bid price. Securities not listed on the NYSE but listed on other domestic or foreign securities exchanges are valued in a similar manner. Securities traded on more than one securities exchange are valued at the last sale price as reflected on the tape at the close of the exchange representing the principal market for such securities. If, after the close of a foreign market, but prior to the NYSE close, market conditions change significantly, certain foreign securities may be valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board of Directors (the “Board”).
Consistent with Section 2(a)(41) of the 1940 Act, the Funds price their securities as follows: debt securities are valued at their bid prices by an independent pricing service using valuation methods that are designed to represent fair value, such as matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models, market transactions and dealer quotations. Debt securities purchased with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at acquisition cost, plus or minus any amortized discount or premium which approximates fair value.
Securities for which market prices are unavailable, or securities for which the Adviser determines that the bid and/or ask price does not reflect market value, will be valued at fair value pursuant to procedures approved by the Board. Circumstances in which market prices may be unavailable include, but are not limited to, trading in a security is suspended, the exchange on which the security is traded is subject to an unscheduled close or disruption or material events occur after the close of the exchange on which the security is principally traded. In these circumstances, the Fund determines fair value in a manner that fairly reflects the market value of the security on the valuation date based on consideration of any information or factors it deems appropriate. These may include recent transactions in comparable securities, information relating to the specific security and developments in the markets. Short-term debt securities, which have a maturity date of 60 days or less, are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at their closing net asset value (the “NAV”).
As a general matter, the Fund records the fair value of its interests in the Investment Funds based on the NAV provided by the Investment Managers and their agents. These fair value calculations will involve significant professional judgment by the Investment Managers in the application of both observable and unobservable attributes, the calculated net asset values of the Investment Funds’ assets may differ from their actual realizable value or future fair value. Valuations will be provided to the Fund based on the interim unaudited financial records of Investment Funds, and, therefore, will be estimates subject to adjustment (upward or downward) upon the auditing of such financial records and may fluctuate as a result. Furthermore, the Board and the Adviser may not have the ability to assess the accuracy of these valuations.
The Fund’s use of fair value pricing may cause the NAV of the Shares to differ from the NAV that would be calculated using market quotations. Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments and it is possible that the fair value determined for a security may be materially different than the value that could be realized upon the sale of such security.

VERSUS CAPITAL MULTI-MANAGER REAL ESTATE INCOME FUND LLC
Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2013 (continued)
Fair Value Measurements: The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:
| | | | |
| | • Level 1 – | | unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
| | |
| | • Level 2 – | | prices determined using other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
| | |
| | • Level 3 – | | significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. It is the Fund’s policy to recognize transfers in and out of the levels at the value at the (end or beginning) of the period. For the period ended March 31, 2013, there were no transfers between levels. A summary of inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of March 31, 2013 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Total Market Value at 3/31/13 | | | Level 1 Quoted Price | | | Level 2 Significant Observable Inputs | | | Level 3 Significant Unobservable Inputs | | | |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
* | See Schedule of Investments for industry breakout. |
At the end of each calendar quarter, management evaluates the classification of Levels 1, 2 and 3 assets and liabilities. Various factors are considered, such as changes in liquidity from the prior reporting period; whether or not a broker is willing to execute at the quoted price; the depth and consistency of prices from third party pricing services; and the existence of contemporaneous, observable trades in the market. Additionally, management evaluates the classification of Level 1 and Level 2 assets and liabilities on a quarterly basis for changes in listings or delistings on national exchanges.
Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have readily available market quotations, the fair value of the Fund’s investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values the Fund may ultimately realize. Further, such investments may be subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or otherwise less liquid than publicly traded securities.
Investment Income and Securities Transactions - Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as a Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Dividend income is recorded net of applicable withholding taxes. Interest income is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted on an effective yield method on fixed income securities. The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Funds will accrue such taxes and reclaims as applicable, based upon their current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which the Funds invest. Securities are accounted for on a trade date basis. The cost of securities sold is determined and gain (losses) are based upon the specific identification method.
Foreign Currency - Foreign currencies, investments and other assets and liabilities, if any, are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at 4:00 p.m. U.S. ET (Eastern Time). Fluctuations in the value of the foreign currencies and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains (losses). Realized gains (losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, and are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders - Once the Fund’s initial distribution has been made, the Fund will make regular quarterly distributions to shareholders of all or a portion of any dividends or investment income it earns on investments. In addition, the Fund will make regular distributions to the shareholders of all or a portion of capital gains distributed to the Fund by Investment Funds and capital gains earned by the Fund from the disposition of Investment Funds, together with any dividends or interest income earned from such investments.
U.S. Federal Income Tax Information - The Fund intends to qualify each year as a “regulated investment company” under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. By so qualifying, the Fund will not be subject to federal income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of its net investment income and any realized capital gains. This policy may cause multiple distributions during the course of the year, which are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
As of and during the year ended March 31, 2013, the Fund did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the statement of operations. During the period, the Fund did not incur any
12
VERSUS CAPITAL MULTI-MANAGER REAL ESTATE INCOME FUND LLC
Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2013 (continued)
interest or penalties. The Fund is not subject to examination by the U.S. federal tax authorities for the fiscal years before 2012. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal.
The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“Modernization Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2010. Under the Modernization Act, the Fund will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 (Fiscal Years 2012 through 2013 for the Fund) indefinitely. As a result, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term under previous law.
Dividends from net investment income and distributions from realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the character of distributions and composition of net assets for tax purposes may differ from those reflected in the accompanying financial statements. To the extent these differences are permanent, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on the tax treatment; temporary differences do not require such reclassification. As of March 31, 2013, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were to increase undistributed net investment income by $1,589 and to decrease paid-in-capital by $1,589.
For the year ended March 31, 2013, tax character of the distribution paid by the Fund was $191,291 of ordinary income dividends. There were no distributions during the period from commencement through March 31, 2012. Distribution from net investment income and short-term capital gains are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, there was $72,612 of undistributed ordinary income and $6,646 accumulated long-term capital gains on a tax basis.
As of March 31, 2013, the Fund had no capital loss carryovers available to offset possible future capital gains.
Under federal tax law, capital losses realized after October 31 may be deferred and treated as having arisen on the first day of the following fiscal year. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, the Fund did not incur any qualified late year losses.
As of March 31, 2013, the gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation and net unrealized appreciation on a tax basis was $178,013, $20,450 and $157,563, respectively. The aggregate cost of securities for federal income tax purposes at March 31, 2013, was $9,921,115.
Offering Costs - Costs of $868,291 were incurred in connection with the offering of the Fund. The costs had been capitalized and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the first twelve months based on the Effective Date of the Fund. Organization costs of $653,425 were amortized during the period ended March 31, 2013.
Guarantees and Indemnifications - In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown and this would involve future claims against the Fund that have not yet occurred. Based on experience, the Fund would expect the risk of loss to be remote.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (including accrued income, receivables and contingent liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities) at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE 3. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement, Versus Capital Advisors LLC (the “Adviser”) serves as the investment adviser to the Fund. For its services under this agreement, the Fund pays the Adviser an Investment Management Fee at an annual rate of 0.95% of the Fund’s NAV, which will accrue daily based on the average daily net assets of the Fund and is paid quarterly.
The Adviser has agreed to reduce its Investment Management Fee to 0.50% for the one year period ending on July 15, 2013 with respect to the cumulative net asset value between $0 and $25 million of assets under management.
The Adviser has voluntarily entered into an “Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement” with the Fund for a twelve-month term commencing on the Effective Date (the “Limitation Period”), which limits the amount of certain expenses borne by the Fund during the Limitation Period to an amount not to exceed 1.25% per annum of the Fund’s net assets (the “Expense Cap”). During the Limitation Period, in the event that certain expenses of the Fund exceed the Expense Cap, the Adviser will reimburse the Fund for any such expenses paid or borne by the Fund. For the year ended March 31, 2013, investment advisory fees accrued were $28,543 and expenses reimbursable by the Adviser were $1,635,278.
The Adviser has incurred approximately $829,000 of startup costs and ongoing expenses on behalf of the Fund for which it has agreed not to seek reimbursement from the Fund. In addition, the counsel to the Fund were contracted by an affiliate of the Adviser and payment is made directly by the Adviser. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2013, approximately $1,390,000 of accrued liabilities due to the Adviser and the counsel to the Fund attorneys were offset against the receivable from the Adviser.
13
VERSUS CAPITAL MULTI-MANAGER REAL ESTATE INCOME FUND LLC
Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2013 (continued)
The Adviser engaged Callan Associates Inc. (the “Sub-Adviser”) to act as the Fund’s investment Sub-Adviser for the selection of Investment Managers. The Sub-Adviser fee is paid by the Adviser. The Adviser, with the assistance of the Sub-Adviser, allocates the Fund’s assets and, thereafter, evaluates regularly each Investment Manager to determine whether its investment program is consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and whether its investment performance is satisfactory. The Adviser may, at its discretion, reallocate the Fund’s assets among the Investment Managers.
The Adviser and Sub-Adviser have retained the services of the following Investment Managers for the Fund: Security Capital Research & Management, Inc. (“Security Capital”); European Investors Incorporated (“EII”); and Forum Securities Limited (“Forum”). The Investment Managers will either (i) manage investment funds that invest in real estate-related debt, consisting of mezzanine and first mortgage debt, and directly in real estate through entities that qualify as real estate investment trusts for federal income tax purposes (“REITs”) or investment vehicles treated similarly as private REITs for tax purposes (collectively, the “Investment Funds”) as described further below (see “Taxes”), or (ii) sub-advise a specified portion of the Fund’s assets to be invested in domestic and international publicly traded real estate securities, such as common and preferred stock of publicly listed REITs, commercial mortgage-backed securities, commercial real estate collateralized debt obligations, and senior unsecured debt of REITs (referred to hereafter as the “Real Estate Securities” and together with the Investment Funds as “Real Estate-Related Investments”).
Forside Funds Distributors LLC, (the “Distributor”), formerly known as BNY Mellon Distributors Inc., serves as the Fund’s statutory underwriter and facilitates the distribution of Shares. For its services, the Fund pays to the Distributor a Distribution Fee that accrues on the basis of the average daily NAV of the Fund’s F-Class shares only, at an annual rate of 0.75%.
The Fund pays each Independent Director a fee per annum. In addition, the Fund reimburses each of the Independent Directors for travel and other expenses incurred in connection with attendance at meetings; provided, however, that if more than three board meetings require out-of-town travel time, such additional travel time may be billed at the rate set forth in the Board of Directors Retainer Agreement or as amended by action of the Board from time to time. Each of the Independent Directors is a member of the Audit Committee and/or Nominating Committee. The Chairman of the Audit Committee receives an additional fee per annum. Other members of the Board and executive officers of the Fund receive no compensation.
NOTE 4. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
For the year ended March 31, 2013, the purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding than short-term investments and U.S. Government securities were $10,495,688 and $1,121,487, respectively.
NOTE 5. REPURCHASE OFFERS
The Fund has adopted a fundamental policy that it will make quarterly Repurchase Offers for no less than 5% of its shares outstanding at NAV, unless suspended or postponed in accordance with regulatory requirements (as discussed below), and that each quarterly repurchase pricing shall occur no later than the 14th day after the Repurchase Request Deadline (defined below), or the next Business Day if the 14th is not a Business Day (each a “Repurchase Pricing Date”). Shares will be repurchased at the NAV per Share determined as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on the Repurchase Pricing Date. Repurchase tenders made during the year ended March 31, 2013 cumulatively were approximately $447,574.
Shareholders will be notified in writing about each quarterly Repurchase Offer, how they may request that the Fund repurchase their shares and the Repurchase Request Deadline, which is the date the Repurchase Offer ends. The Repurchase Request Deadline will be determined by the Board. The time between the notification to shareholders and the Repurchase Request Deadline may vary from no more than 42 days to no less than 21 days. The repurchase price of the shares will be the NAV as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on the Repurchase Pricing Date. Payment pursuant to the repurchase will be made to the shareholders within seven days of the Repurchase Pricing Date (the “Repurchase Payment Deadline”). Shares tendered for repurchase by shareholders prior to any Repurchase Request Deadline will be repurchased subject to the aggregate repurchase amounts established for that Repurchase Request Deadline. Repurchase proceeds, net of any repurchase fee, will be paid to shareholders prior to the Repurchase Payment Deadline.
The Board, or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion, will determine the number of shares that the Fund will offer to repurchase (the “Repurchase Offer Amount”) for a given Repurchase Request Deadline. The Repurchase Offer Amount, however, will be no less than 5% of the total number of shares outstanding on the Repurchase Request Deadline.
If Share repurchase requests exceed the number of Shares in the Fund’s Repurchase Offer, the Fund may, in its sole discretion (i) repurchase the tendered Shares on a pro rata basis or (ii) increase the number of Shares to be repurchased by up to 2.0% of the Fund’s outstanding Shares. As a result, tendering shareholders may not have all of their tendered Shares repurchased by the Fund.
A shareholder who tenders some, but not all, of such shareholder’s Shares for repurchase as of a Repurchase Pricing Date will be required to maintain a minimum aggregate NAV of shares equal to $10,000. The Fund reserves the right to reduce the amount to be repurchased from a shareholder as of a Repurchase Pricing Date so that the required minimum aggregate NAV of shares is maintained. Upon request by a shareholder, the Board may permit a shareholder to cancel a shareholder’s tender of Shares, if such cancellation is determined by the Board to be in the best interest of the Fund.
A shareholder who tenders for repurchase such shareholder’s Shares during the first year following such shareholder’s initial capital contribution will be subject to a fee of 2.00% of the value of the F-Shares repurchased by the Fund, payable to the Fund (an “Early Withdrawal Charge”). The Board may, in certain limited instances where the Board has determined that the remaining shareholders will not be materially and adversely affected or prejudiced,
14

Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2013 (continued)
waive the Early Withdrawal Charge. Any such waiver does not imply that the Early Withdrawal Charge will be waived at any time in the future or that such Early Withdrawal Charge will be waived for any other shareholder.
NOTE 6. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Fund through the date the financial statements were issued, and has determined that there are no subsequent events that required adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements.

Additional Information (unaudited)
SECURITY PROXY VOTING
The Fund’s policy is to vote its proxies in accordance with the recommendations of management. A description of the policies and procedures that the Fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities is available without charge upon request by calling (866) 280-1952 and on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.
PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS
The Fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q within 60 days after the end of the period. Copies of the Fund’s Forms N-Q are available without a charge, upon request, by contacting the Fund at (866) 459-2772 and on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. You may also review and copy Form N-Q at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. For more information about the operation of the Public Reference Room, please call the SEC at 800-SEC-0330.
DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN
All distributions paid by the Fund will be reinvested in additional Shares of the Fund unless a shareholder “opts out” (elects not to reinvest in Shares), pursuant to the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Policy. A shareholder may elect initially not to reinvest by indicating that choice on a shareholder certification. Thereafter, a shareholder is free to change his, her or its election on a quarterly basis by contacting BNY Mellon (or, alternatively, by contacting the Selling Agent that sold such shareholder his, her or its Shares, who will inform the Fund). Shares purchased by reinvestment will be issued at their NAV on the ex-dividend date. There is no Sales Load or other charge for reinvestment. The Fund reserves the right to suspend or limit at any time the ability of shareholders to reinvest distributions. The automatic reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions does not relieve participants of any U.S. federal income tax that may be payable (or required to be withheld) on such distributions.
TAX INFORMATION

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
At meetings held on August 24, 2011 and August 26, 2011, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company, including all of the directors who are not “interested persons” of the Company, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Directors”), considered the initial approval of the investment management between the Adviser and the Company (the “Investment Management Agreement”), as well as the initial approvals of the investment sub-advisory agreements between Callan Associates, Inc., European Investors, Forum Securities Limited, and Security Capital Research & Management (each a “Sub-Adviser” and together the “Sub-Advisers”) and the Company, respectively (collectively, the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”). The Board, including all of the Independent Directors, unanimously approved the Investment Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements for an initial two-year term.
The Board’s decisions to approve the Investment Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements reflect the exercise of their business judgment. In approving the Investment Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Board considered information provided by the Adviser and each of the Sub-Advisers with the assistance and advice of counsel to the Company. In considering the approval of the Investment Management Agreement, the Board took into account all materials provided prior to and during the meetings, the presentations made during the meetings, and the discussions during the meetings. Among other things, the Board considered (a) the nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services to be provided to the Company by the Adviser; (b) the investment performance of individuals affiliated with the Company and the Adviser; (c) comparative data with respect to advisory fees or similar expenses paid by other investment companies with similar investment objectives; (d) the Company’s projected operating expenses and expense ratio compared to investment companies with similar investment objectives; (e) any existing and potential sources of indirect income to the Adviser from its relationships with the Company and the profitability of those relationships; (f) the extent to which economies of scale are relevant to the Company; (g) information about the services to be performed and the personnel performing such services under the Investment Management Agreement; (h) the organizational capability and financial condition of the Adviser and its affiliates; and (i) the possibility of obtaining similar services from other third party service providers or through an internally managed structure.
With respect to each of the Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Board took into account all materials provided prior to and during the meetings, the presentations made during the meetings, and the discussions during the meetings. Among other things, the Board considered (a) the nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services to be provided to the Adviser and to the Company by each Sub-Adviser; (b) the investment performance of each respective Sub-Adviser; (c) comparative data with respect to advisory fees or similar expenses paid by other investment companies with similar investment objectives; (d) the Company’s projected operating expenses and expense ratio compared to investment companies with similar investment objectives; (e) any existing

and potential sources of indirect income to each Sub-Adviser from their respective relationships with the Company and Adviser and the profitability of those relationships; (f) the extent to which economies of scale are relevant to the Company; (g) information about the services to be performed and the personnel performing such services under each of the Sub-Advisory Agreements; (h) the organizational capability and financial condition of each Sub-Adviser; and (i) the possibility of obtaining similar services from other potential sub-advisers.
The Board concluded that the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser had adequate resources to provide services to the Company. The Board also considered the advisory and sub-advisory fee rates payable by the Company under the proposed Investment Management Agreement and each respective Sub-Advisory Agreement. In this regard, the Board noted that the Company has contractually agreed to waive management fees and to reimburse expenses for a one year period ending on the anniversary of the date the Company was deemed effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in order to limit total annual operating expenses for the Company.
After reviewing the aforementioned information regarding the Adviser’s and each Sub-Adviser’s costs, quality of services and economies of scale, the Board concluded that the fees payable under the Investment Management Agreement and each Sub-Advisory Agreement to be paid by the Company were fair and reasonable, and approved the Investment Management Agreement and each Sub-Advisory Agreement for an initial two-year period ending August 26, 2013.

Item 7. | Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies. |
PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
The Fund is a fund of funds that invests primarily in Investment Funds which have investors other than the Fund. The Fund may invest substantially all of its assets in non-voting securities of Investment Funds.
The Fund has delegated voting of proxies in respect of portfolio holdings to the Adviser, to vote the Fund’s proxies in accordance with the Adviser’s proxy voting guidelines and procedures. However, Investment Funds typically do not submit matters to investors for vote. If an Investment Fund submits a matter to the Fund for vote (and the Fund holds voting interests in the Investment Fund), the Adviser will vote on the matter in a way that it believes is in the best interest of the Fund and in accordance with the following proxy voting guidelines (the “ Voting Guidelines “):
• In voting proxies, the Adviser is guided by general fiduciary principles. The Adviser’s goal is to act prudently, solely in the best interest of the Fund.
• The Adviser attempts to consider all factors of its vote that could affect the value of the investment and will vote proxies in the manner that it believes will be consistent with efforts to maximize shareholder values.
• The Adviser, absent a particular reason to the contrary, generally will vote with management’s recommendations on routine matters. Other matters will be voted on a case-by-case basis.
The Adviser applies its Voting Guidelines in a manner designed to identify and address material conflicts that may arise between the Adviser’s interests and those of its clients before voting proxies on behalf of such clients. The Adviser relies on the following to seek to identify conflicts of interest with respect to proxy voting and assess their materiality:
• The Adviser’s employees are under an obligation (i) to be aware of the potential for conflicts of interest on the part of the Adviser with respect to voting proxies on behalf of client accounts both as a result of an employee’s personal relationships and due to special circumstances that may arise during the conduct of the Adviser’s business, and (ii) to bring conflicts of interest of which they become aware to the attention of certain designated persons.
• Such designated persons work with appropriate personnel of the Adviser to determine whether an identified conflict of interest is material. A conflict of interest will be considered material to the extent that it is determined that such conflict has the potential to influence the Adviser’s decision-making in voting the proxy. All materiality determinations will be based on an assessment of the particular facts and circumstances. The Adviser shall maintain a written record of all materiality determinations.
• If it is determined that a conflict of interest is not material, the Adviser may vote proxies notwithstanding the existence of the conflict.
• If it is determined that a conflict of interest is material, the Adviser’s legal department works with appropriate personnel of the Adviser to agree upon a method to resolve such conflict of interest before voting proxies affected by the conflict of interest. Such methods may include:
| • | | disclosing the conflict to the Board and obtaining the consent of the Board before voting; |
| • | | engaging another party on behalf of the Fund to vote the proxy on its behalf; |
| • | | engaging a third party to recommend a vote with respect to the proxy based on application of the policies set forth herein; or |
| • | | such other method as is deemed appropriate under the circumstances given the nature of the conflict. |
The Adviser shall maintain a written record of the method used to resolve a material conflict of interest. Information regarding how the Adviser voted the Fund’s proxies related to the Fund’s portfolio holdings during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30th is available without charge, upon request, by calling
1-877-343-7916, and is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.
