The undersigned recognizes that the initial payment of the purchase amount for the Shares tendered by the undersigned will be paid in a combination of: (a) marketable securities held by the Fund, which would be distributed to Shareholders generally on a pro rata basis; and (b) cash (including cash on hand and proceeds from the liquidation of investments held by the Fund); provided, however, that the Fund retains the option to pay all of the repurchase price solely in cash or solely in marketable securities Notwithstanding the foregoing, the undersigned recognizes that the Fund has determined that tendering Shareholders whose tendered Shares in the aggregate have a net asset value of less than $100,000 as of September 30, 2021, will be paid solely in cash.
The undersigned recognizes that the amount of the initial payment, which is equal to at least ninety-five percent (95%) of the value of the purchased Shares, will be based on the value of the Fund as of September 30, 2021, subject to an extension of the Offer. The undersigned further recognizes that the undersigned will be entitled to a payment (the “Final Payment”) in cash equal to the difference, if any, of: (a) the aggregate value of the repurchased Shares, as of September 30, 2021, after the annual audit of the financial statements of the Fund for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2021, minus (b) the Initial Payment. The Final Payment will be payable promptly after the completion of the Fund’s annual audit, which the Fund expects to occur on or before the end of December 2021.
