 Fund to sell its interest in such Underlying Funds or BDCs, the Fund may be unable to sell such interest quickly, if at all, and could therefore be obligated to continue to hold such
interest for an extended period of time, or to accept a lower price for a quick sale.

Some Underlying Funds may impose restrictions on
when an investor may withdraw its investment or limit the amounts an investor may withdraw. To the extent that the Adviser seeks to reduce or sell out of its investment at a time or in an amount that is prohibited, the Fund may not have the
liquidity necessary to participate in other investment opportunities or may need to sell other investments that it may not have otherwise sold.

Private Placements Risk

A private
placement involves the sale of securities that have not been registered under the Securities Act, or relevant provisions of applicable non-U.S. law, to certain institutional and qualified individual
purchasers, such as the Fund. In addition to the general risks to which all securities are subject, securities received in a private placement generally are subject to strict restrictions on resale, and there may be no liquid secondary market or
ready purchaser for such securities, and a liquid secondary market may never develop. See “Risk Factors—Liquidity Risk.” Therefore, the Fund may be unable to dispose of such securities when it desires to do so, or at the most
favorable time or price. Private placements may also raise valuation risks. See “Risk Factors—Valuation Risk.”

Inflation/Deflation Risk

Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from the Fund’s investments will be worth less in the future as
inflation decreases the value of payments at future dates. As inflation increases, the real value of the Fund’s portfolio could decline. In addition, during any periods of rising inflation, the dividend rates or borrowing costs associated with
the Fund’s use of leverage would likely increase, which would tend to further reduce returns to Stockholders. Deflation risk is the risk that prices throughout the economy decline over time. Deflation may have an adverse effect on the
creditworthiness of issuers and may make issuer default more likely, which may result in a decline in the value of the Fund’s portfolio and Common Stock.

Risk of Regulatory Changes

Legal, tax
and regulatory changes could occur and may adversely affect the Fund and its ability to pursue its investment strategies and/or increase the costs of implementing such strategies. New (or revised) laws or regulations may be imposed by the
