Important Fund risk information:

An investment in the Fund is speculative, involves a high degree of risk, and is suitable only for persons who are willing and able to assume the risk of losing their entire investment.

The fund may often engage in the use of leverage and other speculative investment practices, such as short sales, options, derivatives, futures and illiquid investments that may increase the risk of investment loss. − Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than original cost.

The fund’s high fees and expenses may offset the fund’s total return. − There may be restrictions on transferring interests in the fund. There is no secondary market for the investor’s interest in the fund and none is expected to develop.

The fund is not required to provide investors with periodic pricing or valuation, and often charges high fees.

Private funds are not subject to the same regulatory requirements as registered funds. − Investing in private funds may also involve complex tax structures and delays in distributing important tax information. Speak to your Financial Adviser before investing.

The fund does not represent a complete investment program. Investors in fund of funds will incur asset-based fees and expenses at the fund level and indirect fees, expenses and asset-based compensation of investment funds in which these funds invest.
