(a) | Per share data based on average shares outstanding during the period. |
(b) | Total investment return on market price is calculated assuming a purchase of a Common share at the market price on the first day and a sale on the last day business day of each month. Dividends and distributions are assumed to be reinvested at prices obtained under the Fund’s dividend reinvestment plan. Total investment return on net asset value reflects the changes in net asset value during each period and assumes the reinvestment of dividends and distributions at net asset value on the last business day of each month. This percentage may be different from the total investment return on market price, due to differences between the market price and the net asset value. For periods less than one year, total investment return is not annualized. |
(c) | In addition to the fees and expenses which the Fund bears directly, it also indirectly bears a pro-rata share of the fees and expenses of the underlying funds in which it invests. Such indirect expenses are not included in the above expense ratios. |
(d) | Net of Excise tax expense of 0.02% and 0.06% for the year ended May 31, 2023 and the period from October 27, 2021 (commencement of operations) through May 31, 2022. |
(e) | The expense ratio is higher than the Fund anticipates for a typical fiscal year due to the short fiscal period and the annualization of all expenses, some of which are fixed or non-recurring. |
(f) | Interest expense and fees relate to the Line of Credit borrowing (See Note 6). |
