1 | The Company’s trade finance borrowers may be granted flexibility with respect to repayment relative to the stated maturity date to accommodate specific contracts and/or business cycle characteristics. This flexibility in each case is agreed upon between the Company and the sub-advisor and between the sub-advisor and the borrower. |
2 | Interest rates are as of February 29, 2016. Interest rates include contractual rates and accrued fees where applicable. |
3 | The total loan commitment represents the maximum amount that can be borrowed under the agreement. The actual amount drawn on the loan by the borrower may change over time. Loan commitments are subject to availability of funds and do not represent a contractual obligation to provide funds to a borrower. |
4 | The total amount outstanding represents the actual amount borrowed under the loan as of February 29, 2016. In some instances where there is a $0 balance, the borrower may have paid back the original amount borrowed under a trade finance facility and under an agreement, may borrow again. |
5 | Between February 1 and February 23, 2016, the Company funded four separate transactions totaling $1,711,419 to the Agricultural Supplies Distributor as part of an existing $10,000,000 trade finance facility at an interest rate of 10.38%.

Since the publication of Supplement No. 13, dated February 9, 2016, the Company has changed the borrower’s unique identifier name from “Agricultural Supplies Distributor” to “Agricultural Supplies Distributor II.” |

12 | The Company, together with its Sub-Advisor, and the Rice Producer have mutually agreed to extend the principal maturity date as the borrower continues to make interest payments as agreed. |
13 | The interest rate includes 5.00% of penalty interest because the borrower has missed making required interest payments. On August 27, 2015, the Company was informed that the borrower had filed for judicial recuperation with the local court in Brazil. The filing allows the borrower time to present a comprehensive plan of restructure to the Company. An initial plan was presented and published on January 19, 2016 and has been reviewed with the Company. Further steps, discussions and negotiations are ongoing in line with this plan and the judicial process. |

2 | This represents all countries/sectors where the Company currently has a loan commitment. Due to the revolving debt nature of trade finance facilities and the timing of funding, it is possible that certain commitments currently have a zero outstanding balance and would therefore not be represented in the country/sector allocation charts, which represents invested capital. |
