| Rule 30e-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 requires a registered management investment company to transmit to shareholders of record a report containing the information required to be included by the company’s registration form within 60 days after the close of the period for which such report is being made. Rule 30b2-1 under the 1940 Act requires that a registered management investment company file a report on Form N-CSR not later than 10 days after the transmission to shareholders of any report that is required to be transmitted to shareholder under Rule 30e-1. The Registrant’s most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. On February 28, 2020, the Registrant, including its Audit Committee, determined that the Registrant’s independent auditors would not be able to complete their scheduled audit of the Registrant’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, due principally to difficulties associated with establishing auditable bases for certain security valuations. Therefore, It is not possible for the Registrant to transmit to file Form N-CSR for the period ended December 31, 2019 within the prescribed timeframe. | |||||||||||||||||||
