notice other than an announcement at the Meeting, until the requisite number of shares entitled to vote at the Meeting is present. In the event that a quorum is present at the Meeting but sufficient votes to approve the proposal are not received,
the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Meeting to permit further solicitation of Proxies. Any such adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of those shares presented at the Meeting in person or by
proxy, and the persons named as proxies will vote those Proxies that they are entitled to vote &#147;FOR&#148; any proposal in favor of such adjournment and will vote those Proxies required to be voted &#147;AGAINST&#148; any proposal against any
such adjournment. Absent the establishment of a subsequent record date and the giving of notice to the holders of record thereon, the adjourned Meeting must take place not more than 130 days after the record date. At such adjourned Meeting, any
business may be transacted which could have been transacted at the original Meeting. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">A Proxy that is properly executed and

beneficial owner or other person entitled to vote shares on a particular matter with respect to which the broker or nominee does not have discretionary power) will be treated as shares that are present, but that have not voted, for the purpose of
determining a quorum for the transacting of business. Under Delaware law, abstentions and broker non-votes do not constitute a vote &#147;FOR&#148; or &#147;AGAINST&#148; a matter. The election of a Trustee requires that the successful candidate
receive a plurality of votes cast at the Meeting in person or by proxy; therefore, abstentions and broker non-votes will be disregarded. </P>

at regularly scheduled quarterly meetings each year. In addition, the Board may hold special in-person or telephonic meetings or informal conference calls to discuss specific matters that may arise or require action between regular meetings. As
described below, the Board has established a Nominating Committee and an Audit Committee, and may establish ad hoc committees or working groups from time to time, to assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities. The Non-Interested
Trustees have also engaged independent legal counsel to assist them in performing their oversight responsibilities. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">The
Board has appointed Steven Rappaport, a Non-Interested Trustee, to serve in the role of Chairman. The Chairman&#146;s role is to preside at all meetings of the Board and to act as a liaison with Credit Suisse, counsel and other Trustees generally
between meetings. The Chairman serves as a key point person for dealings between management and the Trustees. The Chairman may also perform such other functions as may be delegated by the Board from time to time. The Board reviews matters related to
its leadership structure annually. The Board has determined that the Board&#146;s leadership structure is appropriate because it allows the Board to exercise informed and independent judgment over the matters under its purview and it allocates areas
of responsibility among committees of Trustees and the full Board in a manner that enhances effective oversight. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">The Fund
is subject to a number of risks, including investment, compliance, operational and valuation risks, among others. Risk oversight forms part of the Board&#146;s general oversight of the Fund and is addressed as part of various Board and committee
activities. Day-to-day risk management functions are subsumed within the responsibilities of Credit Suisse and other service providers (depending on the nature of the risk), which carry out the Fund&#146;s investment management and business affairs.
Credit Suisse and other service providers employ a variety of processes, procedures and controls to identify various events or circumstances that give rise to risks, to lessen the probability of their occurrence and/or to mitigate the effects of
such events or circumstances if they do occur. Each of Credit Suisse and other service providers have their own independent interest in risk management, and their policies and methods of risk management will depend on their functions and business
models. The Board recognizes that it is not possible to identify all of the risks that may affect the Fund or to develop processes and controls to eliminate or mitigate their occurrence or effects. As part of its regular oversight of the Fund, the
Board interacts with and reviews reports from, among others, Credit Suisse, the Fund&#146;s Chief Compliance Officer, the Fund&#146;s independent registered public accounting firm and counsel, as appropriate, regarding risks faced by the Fund and
applicable risk controls. The Board may, at any time and in its discretion, change the manner in which it conducts risk oversight. </P>
