 American equity indices are generally based on fair valuation provided by a pricing service. |

Investments which are unable to be valued in accordance with the foregoing methodologies are valued using fair valuation methods by the investment adviser as the Fund’s “valuation designee” pursuant to Rule 2a-5under the 1940 Act.
