In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the Strategy may, from time to time, opportunistically invest in these companies whose securities are issued in an initial public offering (“IPO”). We may sell these securities over a short period of time due to the amount of securities allocated, our analysis of intrinsic value and return prospects or liquidity requirements.

**Our core turnover, since composite inception is 27.67%, as of September 30, 2022. “Core turnover” is a component of Portfolio Turnover, the statistic calculated in accordance with SEC regulation. We define “core turnover” as turnover that results in the introduction of a new holding or a substantial liquidation (over 90%) of an existing holding. It differs from Portfolio Turnover in that it does not include trims or additions to the existing holdings. In other words, core turnover plus trims and adds equals Portfolio Turnover.
