<p align="left"><font face="serif" size="2"><b><i>Investing in India.</i></b>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Investing in an emerging market such as India involves certain risks and special considerations not typically associated with investing in the securities of established U.S. companies, including: (i) greater political, economic and social uncertainty; (ii)
significantly greater price volatility, substantially less liquidity and much smaller market capitalization of securities markets; (iii) less developed corporate disclosure and governance standards; (iv) greater difficulty in enforcing judgments; (v) restrictions on foreign investment and
repatriation of capital; (vi) exchange control regulations; (vii) currency devaluations and exchange rate fluctuations; (viii) higher rates of inflation; (ix) greater governmental involvement in the economy; and (x) accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards in India differ from
U.S. standards, so less information may be available to the Fund.</font></p>

<div style="text-indent:3%">
<p align="left"><font face="serif" size="2"><b><i>Concentration.</i></b>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;From time to time, the Fund may invest a greater proportion of its assets in the securities of companies that are part of specific sectors and related industries of the Indian economy, subjecting the Fund to greater risk of loss with respect to its portfolio securities.</font></p>
</div>
<div style="text-indent:3%">
<p align="left"><font face="serif" size="2"><b><i>Tax Status.</i></b>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Fund currently operates through a branch in the Republic of Mauritius to take advantage of favorable tax treatment by the Indian government pursuant to a treaty between India and Mauritius. Any change in the provision of this treaty or in its applicability to the
Fund could result in the imposition of certain taxes on the Fund by India, which would reduce the return to the Fund on its investments.</font></p>

<div style="text-indent:3%">
<p align="left"><font face="serif" size="2"><b><i>Interval Fund.</i></b>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Fund&#146;s required semi-annual repurchases are likely to decrease the overall size of the Fund which could, among other things, increase the Fund&#146;s expense ratio as the Fund&#146;s assets decrease over time.</font></p>
</div>
<div style="text-indent:3%">
<p align="left"><font face="serif" size="2"><b><i>Non-Diversification Risk.</i></b>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Fund may invest a greater proportion of its assets in the securities of a smaller number of issuers and, as a result, is subject to greater risk of loss with respect to its portfolio securities.</font></p>

agreements; sell securities short; and lend portfolio securities. Hedging involves special risks, including possible default by the other party to the transaction, illiquidity and the risks that the use of hedging could result in losses greater than if they had not been used.</font></p>
