<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Risk Oversight</B>&nbsp;&#151; Each of the Funds has retained the Manager and the applicable Sub-Adviser to provide investment
advisory services, and, in the case of the Manager, administrative services, and these service providers are immediately responsible for the management of risks that may arise from Fund investments and operations. Some employees of the Manager and
its affiliates serve as the Funds&#146; officers, including the Funds&#146; principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, chief compliance officer and chief legal officer. The Manager and the Sub-Advisers employ
different processes, procedures and controls to identify and manage different types of risks that may affect the Funds. The Board oversees the performance of these functions by the Manager and Sub-Advisers, both directly and through the Committee
structure it has established. The Board receives from the Manager and Sub-Advisers a wide range of reports, both on a regular and as-needed basis, relating to the Funds&#146; activities and to the actual and potential risks of the Funds. These
include reports on investment risks, custody and valuation of Fund assets, compliance with applicable laws, and the Funds&#146; financial accounting and reporting. In addition, the Board meets periodically with the individual portfolio managers of
the Funds to receive reports regarding the portfolio management of the Funds and their performance, including their investment risks. The Board has emphasized to the Manager and the Sub-Advisers the importance of maintaining vigorous risk-management
programs and procedures. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition, the Board has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer (&#147;CCO&#148;). The CCO oversees
the development of compliance policies and procedures that are reasonably designed to minimize the risk of violations of the federal securities laws (&#147;Compliance Policies&#148;). The CCO reports directly to the Independent Trustees/Directors,
interacts with individuals within the Manager&#146;s organization, including its Head of Risk Management, and provides presentations to the Board at its quarterly meetings and an annual report on the application of the Compliance Policies. The Board
periodically discusses relevant risks affecting the Funds with the CCO at these meetings. The Board has approved the Compliance Policies and reviews the CCO&#146;s reports. Further, the Board annually reviews the sufficiency of the Compliance
Policies, as well as the appointment and compensation of the CCO. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Board recognizes that the reports it receives
concerning risk management matters are, by their nature, typically summaries of the relevant information. Moreover, the Board recognizes that not all risks that may affect the Funds can be identified in advance; that it may not be practical or
cost-effective to eliminate or mitigate certain risks; that it may be necessary to bear certain risks (such as investment-related risks) in seeking to achieve the Funds&#146; investment objectives; and that the processes, procedures and controls
employed to address certain risks may be limited in their effectiveness. As a result of the foregoing and for other reasons, the Board&#146;s risk management oversight is subject to substantial limitations. </FONT></P>

knowledgeable about the Funds&#146; business and service provider arrangements, and has also served for a substantial length of time as trustee or director to a number of other investment companies advised by the Manager and its affiliates. Among
the factors the Board considered when concluding that an individual should serve on the Board were the following: (i)&nbsp;the individual&#146;s business and professional experience and accomplishments; (ii)&nbsp;the individual&#146;s ability to
work effectively with other members of the Board; (iii)&nbsp;the individual&#146;s prior experience, if any, serving on the boards of public companies (including, where relevant, other investment companies) and other complex enterprises and

this Proxy Statement will be held in July 2014. Proposals of Shareholders intended to be presented at that annual meeting of the Fund must be received by the Fund no later than January&nbsp;22, 2014 for inclusion in the Fund&#146;s proxy statement
and proxy cards relating to that meeting. The submission by a Shareholder of a proposal for inclusion in the proxy materials does not guarantee that it will be included. Shareholder proposals are subject to certain requirements under the federal
securities laws and must be submitted in accordance with the applicable Fund&#146;s Bylaws. Shareholders submitting any other proposals for the Fund intended to be presented at the annual meeting for the 2014-2015 fiscal year (<I>i.e</I>., other
than those to be included in the Fund&#146;s proxy materials) must ensure that such proposals are received by the Fund, in good order and complying with all applicable legal requirements and requirements set forth in the Fund&#146;s
Bylaws.&nbsp;Each Fund&#146;s Bylaws provide that any such proposal must be received in writing by the Fund not less than 45&nbsp;days nor more than 60 days prior to the first anniversary date of the date on which the Fund first mailed its proxy
materials for the prior year&#146;s shareholder meeting; provided that, if, in accordance with applicable law, the upcoming shareholder meeting is set for a date that is not within 30 days from the anniversary of the Fund&#146;s prior shareholder
meeting, such proposal must be received by the later of the close of business on (i)&nbsp;the date 45 days prior to such upcoming shareholder meeting date or (ii)&nbsp;the 10th business day following the date such upcoming shareholder meeting date
is first publicly announced or disclosed.&nbsp;Assuming the next annual meeting is ultimately scheduled to be within 30 days of the anniversary of this year&#146;s meeting, such proposals must be received no earlier than March&nbsp;23, 2014 and no
later than April&nbsp;7, 2014.&nbsp;If a Shareholder who wishes to present a proposal fails to notify the Fund within these dates, the proxies solicited for the meeting will be voted the Shareholder&#146;s proposal, if it is properly brought before
the meeting, in accordance with the judgment of the persons named in the enclosed proxy card(s).&nbsp;If a Shareholder makes a timely notification, the proxies may still exercise discretionary voting authority under circumstances consistent with the
SEC&#146;s proxy rules. Shareholder proposals should be addressed to the attention of the Secretary of the applicable Fund, at the address of the principal executive offices of the Fund, with a copy to David C. Sullivan, Ropes&nbsp;&amp; Gray LLP,
