Investment Objective
The investment objective of the Fund is to generate income with low interest rate risk and with moderate risk of principal loss. The
Fund aims to achieve this strategy through exposure on a leveraged basis to the performance of an actively managed portfolio
principally comprised of adjustable rate senior secured loans (the “Floating Rate Portfolio”). The Floating Rate Portfolio will generally
be invested in U.S. dollar denominated assets. The annual rate of return is expected to be LIBOR plus 2-4%.
