Notes to Quarterly Schedule of Investments
September 30, 2023 (Unaudited)
1. Fair Value Measurement – The Fund follows guidance in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, where fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. Fair value should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not assumptions specific to the entity.
Fair value measurements are determined within a framework that establishes a three-tier hierarchy which classifies fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability that are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability that are developed based on the best information available.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under GAAP, the Fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value, as follows:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date;
Level 2 – Quoted prices which are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable (either directly or indirectly) for substantially the full term of the asset or liability at the measurement date; and
Level 3 – Unobservable prices or inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of investment, whether the investment is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets and other characteristics particular to the investment. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Because of the inherent uncertainty of estimating fair value, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than if the fair value was determined using observable inputs. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
An investment level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level input, individually or in the aggregate, that is significant to fair value measurement. The valuation techniques used by the Fund to measure fair value during the three months ended September 30, 2023 maximized the use of observable inputs and minimized the use of unobservable inputs. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in those securities.
Investment Valuation: Under procedures established by the Fund’s Board of Directors, the fair value process is monitored by the Fund’s Audit Committee either directly or through the oversight of other committees, including the Adviser’s Internal Valuation Committee. The purpose of the Internal Valuation Committee is to oversee the pricing policy and procedures by ensuring objective and reliable valuation practices and pricing of financial instruments, as well as addressing fair valuation issues and approving changes to valuation methodologies and pricing sources. Meetings are held at least quarterly to discuss and analyze the significant assumptions utilized in the Adviser’s internally developed models and to review the valuations provided by third-party pricing services and an independent valuation firm for reasonableness. In addition, the Fund utilizes broker quotes to value its structured notes. Money market fund investments are valued at the reported net asset value per share. The Fund utilizes a third-party pricing service to value its corporate bonds and SPAC equity investments. The corporate bonds and SPAC equity investments are valued utilizing the closing bid prices obtained from an independent pricing vendor. If and when market quotations are unavailable or are deemed not to represent fair value, the Adviser will develop models to determine the fair value. An independent valuation firm reviews the valuation quarterly from the Adviser and develops their own appraisals to assist the Audit Committee and Board of Directors in determining fair value. The Board of Directors is fully responsible for approving the fair values based on the input of our Adviser, the applicable independent valuation firm, and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or when such market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, the Board of Directors has approved a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:
| 1. | The quarterly valuation process begins with each investment being initially valued by the internal valuation associate of the Adviser who is responsible for the investment. |
| 2. | The most senior professional for each investment is responsible for reviewing and approving the valuation before it is submitted to the Internal Valuation Committee for review. |
| 3. | An independent valuation firm is engaged by the Board of Directors to conduct independent appraisals by reviewing the Adviser’s internal valuations and then providing an assessment of the Advisor's internal values. |
| 4. | The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors reviews the valuations of the Adviser and the valuations prepared by the independent valuation firm and responds, if warranted, to the valuations recommendation of the independent valuation firm. |
| 5. | The Board of Directors discusses valuations and determines in good faith the fair value of each investment in the portfolio based on the input of our Adviser, the applicable independent valuation firm, and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. |
| 6. | Generally, new private investments purchased within 45 business days before the valuation date are held at the recent transaction price and not valued by an independent valuation firm. These investments are held at purchase price initially unless such valuation, in the judgment of the Internal Valuation Committee, does not represent fair value. These investments are generally transitioned to an independent valuation firm to assist the Internal Valuation Committee in determining the application of a valuation methodology at the next valuation date. The Internal Valuation Committee will convene if there has been a material change to the underlying company, industry or market between the time of investment and the valuation date. |
The process above does not apply when the vendor price has been determined to be indicative of fair value. If there is a market dislocation, the Internal Valuation Committee will reconvene to revisit valuations intra quarter as needed.
Investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued utilizing a market approach, an income approach, or cost approach, as appropriate. The market approach indicates the fair value of an asset or liability based on prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including businesses). In the context of securities valuation, market approach valuation techniques can include quoted prices in active markets and market multiple analyses based on comparables. The income approach indicates the fair value of an asset or liability based on discounting the future cash flows that an asset or liability can be expected to generate over its remaining life to a present value equivalent. The future cash flows are discounted at a rate that reflects the time value of money and the risk and uncertainty inherent in the projected cash flows. In the context of securities valuation, income approach valuation techniques can include discounted cash flow analyses and option pricing models (i.e., Black-Scholes). The cost approach is a valuation technique that uses the concept of replacement cost as an indicator of value. For valuing business and investment securities, this approach is typically referred to as an asset or net asset approach. The approach typically encompasses a liquidation method or a net asset value method. The liquidation method assumes the subject company will be liquidated in the near future and determines its estimated liquidation price for the company’s assets, including all fees and commissions the actual owner would incur to liquidate the company. The net asset value (also called adjusted book value) method makes adjustments to determine the fair value of the company. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, there were no significant changes to the Fund’s valuation techniques and related inputs considered in the valuation process.

| (1) | The weighted average information is generally derived by assigning each disclosed unobservable input a proportionate weight based on the fair value of the related investment. |
The Fund utilized the yield analysis, market comparable technique, and recent transaction price. The yield analysis technique is an analysis whereby expected cash flows of the loan are discounted to determine a present value using internal rate of return. Significant increases or decreases in the internal rate of return would result in an increase or decrease in the fair value measurement. The Fund primarily uses comparable multiples for its structured notes which uses equity prices from brokers to determine the fair value. For recent transaction technique, generally, new private investments purchased within 45 business days before the valuation date are not reviewed by an independent third-party valuation firm. These investments are held at purchase price initially unless such valuation, in the judgment of the Internal Valuation Committee, does not represent fair value. These investments are generally transitioned to an independent third-party valuation firm to assist the Internal Valuation Committee in determining the application of a valuation methodology at the next valuation date. The Internal Valuation Committee will convene if there has been a material change to the underlying company, industry or market between the time of investment and the valuation date.
