<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">(i) On August 3, 2020
(the &ldquo;Effective Date&rdquo;), certain assets of Pinhook Capital, LLC (&ldquo;Pinhook&rdquo;) were contributed to Validus
Growth Investors, LLC (&ldquo;Validus&rdquo;), an affiliate, in exchange for passive preferred and common interests in Validus
resulting in a change of control of Pinhook. In connection with that transaction, Pinhook and Validus have been effectively consolidated,
with Validus remaining as the surviving registrant (the &ldquo;Sub-Adviser Transaction&rdquo;).</P>

Pinhook&rsquo;s) previous owner, Lucia Capital Group (&ldquo;Lucia&rdquo;) is a broker, adviser and wealth manager primarily to
retail individuals. Lucia has made a strategic decision to focus on its core business and has entered into an agreement with LPL,
a large independent broker dealer, to expand it offering of retail wealth management and financial planning services to its client
base. As part of this realignment, Lucia chose to exit the asset management business and entered into the Sub-Adviser Transaction
to divest both Validus and Pinhook. In effect, the Sub-Adviser Transaction was part of the natural progression of the relationship
between affiliated entities. Both Pinhook and Validus had overlapping members, employees, clients and service providers. In addition
to rationalizing the resulting capital structure, bringing the businesses of Pinhook and Validus together created greater scale,
which has become increasingly important in the asset management industry, and significant managerial and operational efficiencies
including the elimination of duplicative costs.</P>

constitutes an &ldquo;assignment&rdquo; of the sub-advisory agreement among the Fund, Destra Capital Advisors LLC (&ldquo;Destra&rdquo;
or the &ldquo;Adviser&rdquo;) and Pinhook under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the &ldquo;1940 Act&rdquo;). As
a result, the sub-advisory agreement automatically terminated on the Effective Date. Therefore, Shareholders are being asked to
approve a new sub-advisory agreement among the Fund, Destra and Validus (the &ldquo;New Sub-Advisory Agreement&rdquo;).</P>

such termination, and to provide the Fund and its shareholders with sub-advisory management continuity, the Fund&rsquo;s Board
of Trustees (the &ldquo;Board of Trustees&rdquo;), at a special meeting held on July&nbsp;30, 2020, considered and approved an
interim sub-advisory agreement between Destra and Validus, with respect to the Fund (the &ldquo;Interim Agreement&rdquo;). While
Shareholders consider the approval of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Interim Agreement will allow Validus to advise the Fund
for up to 150 days after the Effective Date or until the New Sub-Advisory Agreement is approved by Shareholders, if sooner. The
Interim Agreement took effect on the Effective Date and the New Sub-Advisory Agreement will take effect if approved by Shareholders.
The Interim Agreement and the New Sub-Advisory Agreement will allow Validus to serve as the sub-adviser to the Fund under terms
that are the same, in all material respects, as the sub-advisory agreement with Pinhook, except that there will be a new initial
term.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 0.5in; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Destra retained Pinhook
Capital, LLC (&ldquo;Pinhook&rdquo;) to serve as the Fund&rsquo;s sub-adviser pursuant to a sub-advisory agreement among the Fund,
Destra Capital Advisors LLC (&ldquo;Destra&rdquo; or the &ldquo;Adviser&rdquo;) and Pinhook (the &ldquo;Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement&rdquo;).
On August 3, 2020 (the &ldquo;Effective Date&rdquo;), certain assets of Pinhook Capital, LLC (&ldquo;Pinhook&rdquo;) were contributed
to Validus Growth Investors, LLC (&ldquo;Validus&rdquo;), an affiliate, in exchange for passive preferred and common interests
in Validus resulting in a change of control of Pinhook. In connection with that transaction, Pinhook and Validus have been effectively
consolidated, with Validus remaining as the surviving registrant (the &ldquo;Sub-Adviser Transaction&rdquo;).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Validus&rsquo; (and
Pinhook&rsquo;s) previous owner, Lucia Capital Group (&ldquo;Lucia&rdquo;) is a broker, adviser and wealth manager primarily to
retail individuals. Lucia has made a strategic decision to focus on its core business and has entered into an agreement with LPL,
a large independent broker dealer, to expand it offering of retail wealth management and financial planning services to its client
base. As part of this realignment, Lucia chose to exit the asset management business and entered into the Sub-Adviser Transaction
to divest both Validus and Pinhook. In effect, the Sub-Adviser Transaction was part of the natural progression of the relationship
between affiliated entities. Both Pinhook and Validus had overlapping members, employees, clients and service providers. In addition
to rationalizing the resulting capital structure, bringing the businesses of Pinhook and Validus together created greater scale,
which has become increasingly important in the asset management industry, and significant managerial and operational efficiencies
including the elimination of duplicative costs.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Sub-Adviser Transaction
constitutes an &ldquo;assignment&rdquo; of the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
(the &ldquo;1940 Act&rdquo;). Under federal securities law and the terms of the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement, an assignment results
in such agreement&rsquo;s termination. As a result, the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement automatically terminated on the Effective
Date. Therefore, to permit Validus to serve as sub-adviser to the Fund, shareholders are being asked to approve a new sub-advisory
agreement among the Fund, Destra and Validus (the &ldquo;New Sub-Advisory Agreement&rdquo;).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">It is anticipated that
the same individuals and personnel responsible for management of the Fund at Pinhook, will continue to be responsible for the day-to-day
management of the Fund at Validus. As such, the Board of Trustees determined that retaining the sub-advisory services of Validus
was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders and at a special meeting held on July 30, 2020, approved the New Sub-Advisory
Agreement. The terms of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement are substantially similar to the terms of the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement
with respect to services to be provided by Validus. In addition, the sub-advisory fees payable to Validus by Destra under the New
Sub-Advisory Agreement are identical to the sub-advisory fees payable under the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement. The material terms
of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement are compared below in &ldquo;Terms of the Pinhook and New
Sub-Advisory Agreements.&rdquo; If approved by shareholders, the New Sub-Advisory Agreement would become effective on the date
of such approval, and will remain in effect for an initial term of two (2) years from its effective date, and from year to year
thereafter provided such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by the Board of Trustees. The form of the New Sub-Advisory
Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Furthermore, in anticipation
of such termination and to protect the Fund against disruption of investment services while shareholders consider the approval
of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board of Trustees also considered and approved an interim sub-advisory agreement between
Destra and Validus, with respect to the Fund (the &ldquo;Interim Agreement&rdquo;) at their July 30, 2020 special meeting. The
Interim Agreement will allow Validus to advise the Fund for up to 150 days after the Effective Date or until the New Sub-Advisory
Agreement is approved by shareholders, if sooner. The Interim Agreement took effect on the Effective Date and the New Sub-Advisory
Agreement will take effect if approved by Shareholders. The Interim Agreement and the New Sub-Advisory Agreement will allow Validus
to serve as the sub-adviser to the Fund under terms that are the same, in all material respects, as the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement,
except that there will be a new initial term.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Validus is a registered
investment adviser with the Securities and Exchange Commission (&ldquo;SEC&rdquo;) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as
amended (the &ldquo;Advisers Act&rdquo;). Validus was founded in June&nbsp;2012 for the purpose of providing investment advisory
services based on a fundamental, bottom-up, stock specific research process, anchored by a proprietary ranking system, and founded
on pre-existing principles. The firm provides separately managed account services as well as model strategies to institutional
parties.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Validus is located
at 13520 Evening Creek Drive N., Suite 300B, San Diego, CA 92128. As of June 30, 2020, Validus had approximately $83 million in
assets under management and approximately $11 million in assets under advisement.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Validus will continue
to implement the investment process created by the Portfolio Managers, Mark Scalzo and Aaron Rosen, previously utilized by Pinhook.
In summary, Validus uses both a quantitative screening process and a qualitative selection process when selecting securities for
investment by the Fund in connection with the Fund&rsquo;s strategy. An optimized asset allocation model is used to quantify targeted
exposure ranges for various alternative sectors. Validus manages investments over a long-term time horizon, while being mindful
of the historical context of the markets. Validus employs a regimen of quantitative and qualitative criteria to arrive at a universe
of investments which it considers to be &ldquo;best-of-breed.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">It is anticipated that
the Sub-Advisory Transaction will not result in any change in the sub-advisory services provided to the Fund. Aaron Rosen and Mark
C. Scalzo, the current portfolio managers to the Fund remain responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. It is further
anticipated that the Sub-Adviser Transaction and New Sub-Advisory Agreement will not diminish in any way the high level of investment
sub-advisory service provided to Shareholders of the Fund. Further, the research efforts of Validus and Pinhook will be combined
going forward and may result in additional investment opportunities for the Fund as it relates to potential liquid holdings and
investment strategies.</P>

and the Fund with respect to management of the Fund (the &ldquo;Interim Validus Sub-Advisory Agreement&rdquo; and, together with
the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the &ldquo;Validus Sub-Advisory Agreements&rdquo;). The Interim Validus Sub-Advisory Agreement
is to remain in effect until the earlier of the date on which the New Sub-Advisory Agreement has been approved by Fund shareholders

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Board of Trustees reviewed and discussed
written materials that were provided in advance of the meeting and deliberated on the approval of the Validus Sub-Advisory Agreements.
The Board of Trustees relied upon the advice of independent legal counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material
factors to be considered in evaluating the Validus Sub-Advisory Agreements and the weight to be given to each such factor. The
conclusions reached by the Board of Trustees were based on a comprehensive evaluation of all of the information provided and were
not the result of any one factor. Moreover, each Trustee may have afforded different weight to the various factors in reaching
his conclusions with respect to the Validus Sub-Advisory Agreements. In considering the approval of the Validus Sub-Advisory Agreements,
the Board of Trustees reviewed and analyzed various factors that they determined were relevant, including the factors enumerated
below.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Board of Trustees considered the nature,
extent and quality scope of services to be provided by Validus under the Validus Sub-Advisory Agreements. In particular, the Trustees
considered the fact that Validus and Pinhook were affiliated investment advisers that were being consolidated; that the same individuals
and personnel who were responsible for management of the Fund at Pinhook would continue to be responsible for management of the
Fund at Validus; that the consolidation transaction is not expected to result in any change in the sub-advisory services to be
provided to the Fund; and that Fund shareholders may benefit from the continuity of investment advisory services that would be
provided under the Validus Sub-Advisory Agreements.</P>

and information concerning the background, experience and capabilities of Validus&rsquo; portfolio managers and its other investment
and administrative personnel in light of the services to be provided by Validus pursuant to the Validus Sub-Advisory Agreements.
The Board of Trustees considered, among other factors, the capabilities and quality of Validus&rsquo; investment management, research
and trade execution personnel and other resources that would be dedicated to managing the Fund&rsquo;s portfolio. The Board of
Trustees also considered the ability of Validus, based on its resources, reputation and other attributes, to attract, compensate
and retain qualified investment professionals. In light of the Fund&rsquo;s investment strategy and the illiquid nature of certain
investments, the Board of Trustees considered the fair valuation policies and procedures that would be applied to the Fund&rsquo;s
portfolio. The Board of Trustees also considered matters related to Validus&rsquo; compliance programs, its compliance history
and its dealings with regulators. Based on its review, the Board of Trustees concluded that, overall, the nature, extent and quality
of services expected to be provided to the Fund by Validus were satisfactory.</P>

during the past one year, three years, five years and since inception of the Fund in light of its investment objectives. The Board
of Trustees considered various measures and characteristics of Fund performance relative to certain benchmarks and a peer group.
The Board of Trustees also considered information related to the manner in which the peer group was selected.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Board of Trustees evaluated information presented
by Validus concerning significant contributors to and detractors from Fund performance. The Board noted that significant detractors
from performance included net outflows of capital, advisor turnover and negative performance of certain non-traded legacy positions
in the portfolio. The Board of Trustees also considered information concerning an ongoing transition in strategy that is intended
to result in enhancements to Validus&rsquo; due diligence process, an increased focus on institutional products and opportunities,
and a movement away from non-traded retail-oriented investments.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Board of Trustees considered the proposed
sub-advisory fee under the Validus Sub-Advisory Agreements, noting that the contractual amount was equal to a percentage of average
daily managed assets and that the entire sub-advisory fee is payable by Destra rather than the Fund. As described below, in connection
with its consideration of the New Advisory Agreement, the Board of Trustees also reviewed and considered information regarding
the Fund&rsquo;s investment advisory fee rate and its total expense ratio. The advisory fee rate and total expense ratio for the
Fund were compared against a peer group over specified time periods.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Based on its review, the Board of Trustees concluded

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Board of Trustees received and evaluated
information regarding the potential for Validus to realize economies of scale with respect to management of the Fund and whether
the Fund and its shareholders would appropriately benefit from any economies of scale. Based on the level of Fund assets under
management, the Board of Trustees determined that Validus does not currently benefit from economies of scale. As a result, the
Board of Trustees will consider the appropriateness of breakpoints in the sub-advisory fee or other arrangements if Fund assets
grow and Validus begins to achieve economies of scale.</P>

profitability analysis provided by Validus with respect to its management of the Fund. The analysis covered the years ending December
31, 2020, 2021 and 2022. The Board of Trustees evaluated Validus&rsquo; estimated profitability and compared it against profit
margins that have been found by courts to be reasonable under applicable securities laws. Based on its evaluation, the Board of
Trustees concluded that Validus&rsquo; estimated profitability in managing the Fund is reasonable and not excessive.</P>

Validus and its affiliates are reasonable.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">In considering the Validus Sub-Advisory Agreements,
the Board of Trustees evaluated the factors and information described above, as well as information concerning Validus and the
Fund that is provided to the Board of Trustees throughout the year in connection with other Board of Trustees meetings. In its
deliberations, the Board of Trustees did not identify any single item that was paramount or controlling, and individual Trustees
may have attributed different weights to various factors.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman,serif; margin: 0 0 0pt; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Based on its deliberations and analysis of the
information provided, the entire Board of Trustees, including all the Independent Trustees, concluded that the Validus Sub-Advisory
Agreements are in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders and that the compensation payable by the Fund is fair and
reasonable in light of the services and expenses involved. On that basis, the entire Board, including all the Independent Trustees,
approved the Validus Sub-Advisory Agreements.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">A copy of the New Sub-Advisory
Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A. The following description is only a summary; however, all material terms of the New
Sub-Advisory Agreement have been included in this summary. You should refer to Exhibit A for the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, and
the description set forth in this proxy statement of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to
Exhibit A. The investment sub-advisory services to be provided by Validus to the Fund under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement are
identical to the services provided by Pinhook under the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement. Furthermore, the fee structure with respect
to the fees payable to Validus by Destra under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the fee structure with respect to the fees payable
to Pinhook under the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement, are also identical.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The contractual rates
of the sub-advisory fee payable to Pinhook, and the actual sub-advisory fee rates paid to Pinhook by Destra for the fiscal year
ended February 29, 2020, is set forth in Exhibit B. The date on which the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement was most recently (i)
approved by the Board of Trustees and (ii) submitted to shareholders for approval and the purpose for such submission is also set
forth in Exhibit&nbsp;B.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in"><I>&nbsp;</I></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in"><I>Sub-Advisory Services</I>.
The sub-advisory services to be provided by Validus under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement are identical to those sub-advisory services
provided by Pinhook to the Fund under the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement. Under both the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement and the
New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the sub-adviser manages the investment and reinvestment of such portion of the Fund&rsquo;s assets
as Destra from time to time allocates to such sub-adviser for management (the &ldquo;Sub-Advised Assets&rdquo;), as well as vote
on all proxies related to the Sub-Advised Assets. In furnishing its services under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, Validus will
furnish its services subject to the same parameters as was required of Pinhook under the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement. Accordingly,
Validus will furnish its services in accordance with the following: (i) the Fund&rsquo;s declaration of trust, by-laws and/or other
governing documents; (ii) the currently effective registration statement; (iii) the 1940 Act and Advisers Act and the rules thereunder
and all other federal and state laws or regulations applicable to the Fund; (iv) the Fund&rsquo;s compliance manual and other policies
and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees; and (v) the instructions of Destra.</P>

Both the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement provide that the sub-adviser may from time to time employ
or associate itself with any person it believes to be particularly suited to assist it in providing the services to be performed
under the respective agreement, provided that no such person may perform services with respect to the Fund that would constitute
an assignment or require a written advisory contract pursuant to the 1940 Act.</P>

Both the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement and the New Sub-Advisory Agreement provide that the respective agreement will continue
in effect for an initial term of two years, provided that the agreement may continue in effect for a period of more than two years
from its effective date only so long as such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by the Board of Trustees provided
that in such an event such continuance is also approved by the vote of a majority of the Independent Trustees cast in person at
a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.</P>

payment of any penalty, by the Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, or by the vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, on sixty (60) days&rsquo; written notice to Destra and the sub-adviser, or by
the sub-adviser or Destra on sixty (60) days&rsquo; written notice to the Fund and the other party. Both agreements automatically
terminate, without the payment of any penalty, (i) in the event of its assignment (as defined in the 1940 Act), or (ii) in the
event that the investment management agreement between Destra and the Fund is assigned (as defined in the 1940 Act) or terminates
for any other reason. Both agreements also terminate upon written notice to the other party that the other party is in material
breach of the respective agreement, unless the party in material breach cures the breach to the reasonable satisfaction of the
other party within thirty (30) days after written notice.</P>

the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement and the New Sub-Advisory Agreement provide that the sub-adviser will furnish, at its own expense:
(i) all necessary facilities (including office space, furnishings and equipment) and personnel, including salaries, expenses and
fees of any personnel required for the sub-adviser to perform its duties under the respective agreement; and (ii) administrative
facilities, including bookkeeping and all equipment necessary for the performance of the sub-adviser&rsquo;s duties.</P>

Both the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement contain identical provisions with respect to the limitation
of liability. The New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Pinhook Sub-Advisory Agreement both state that, neither the sub-adviser or
its affiliates will be liable for any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or litigation incurred or suffered by Destra or the
Fund as a result of any error of judgment or mistake of law by the sub-adviser or its affiliates with respect to the Fund. Both
agreements also provide that the sub-adviser will indemnify the Fund, Destra and their affiliates against any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or litigation arising under law based on any willful misconduct, bad faith, reckless disregard or gross negligence
of the sub-adviser in the performance of its duties under the respective agreement or any untrue statement of a material fact contained
in any registration statement, proxy materials, advertisements, sales literature, or other materials for the Fund or the omission
to state therein a material fact known to the sub-adviser that was required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
contained therein not misleading, if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon written information furnished to Destra
or the Fund by the sub-adviser. Both agreements contain a reciprocal provision with respect to the indemnification and limitation
of liability for the sub-adviser.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Special Meeting
is also being called to consider a proposal necessitated by the proposed transaction between Destra Capital Management LLC (&ldquo;DCM&rdquo;)
and Continuum Funds Holdings, LLC (&ldquo;Continuum&rdquo;), pursuant to which DCM will buy back all of Continuum&rsquo;s outstanding
equity interests in DCM (the &ldquo;Adviser Transaction&rdquo;). The Adviser Transaction will result in DCM buying back all of
Continuum&rsquo;s outstanding equity interests in DCM, and as of the closing of the Adviser Transaction (the &ldquo;Adviser Closing&rdquo;),
Continuum will relinquish all equity interests and investor member rights in DCM, including voting share privileges and all board
rights and participation. As a result, effective as of the Adviser Closing, Continuum will no longer control Destra, which will
result in a change of control of Destra and the automatic termination of the existing advisory agreement between the Fund and Destra
(the &ldquo;Existing Advisory Agreement&rdquo;). The Adviser Closing is contingent upon, among other things, the approval of the
Fund&rsquo;s new investment advisory agreement (the &ldquo;New Advisory Agreement&rdquo;) by shareholders, which means that the
Adviser Closing will not occur unless shareholders of the Fund approve the New Advisory Agreement.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The form of the New
Advisory Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit C. The terms of the New Advisory Agreement are substantially similar to the terms
of the Existing Advisory Agreement with respect to services provided by Destra. In addition, the advisory fees payable to Destra
by the Fund under the New Advisory Agreement will be identical to the advisory fees payable under the Existing Advisory Agreement.
Currently, Destra is entitled to a management fee, calculated and payable monthly in arrears, at the annual rate of 1.35% of the
Fund&rsquo;s average daily net assets during such period. The material terms of the New Advisory Agreement and Existing Advisory
Agreement are compared below in &ldquo;Terms of the Existing and New Advisory Agreements.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Destra is a registered
investment adviser with the SEC under the Advisers Act. Destra has responsibility for the overall management of the Fund. It is
also responsible for managing the Fund&rsquo;s business affairs and providing day-to-day administrative services to the Fund. The
principal office of Destra is located at 444 West Lake Street, Suite 1700, Chicago, Illinois 60606. As of September 30, 2020, Destra
had approximately $460.8 million in assets under management. Destra is a wholly-owned subsidiary of DCM, a sponsor of investment
funds.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">On October 14, 2020,
DCM entered into a redemption agreement (the &ldquo;Redemption Agreement&rdquo;) with Continuum, pursuant to which DCM agreed to
buy back all of the outstanding equity interests of DCM. As of the Adviser Closing, Continuum will relinquish all equity interests
and investor member rights in DCM, including voting share privileges and all board rights and participation. The Adviser Closing
is contingent upon, among other things, the approval of the Fund&rsquo;s New Advisory Agreement by shareholders, which means that
the Adviser Closing will not occur unless shareholders of the Fund approve the New Advisory Agreement. The Adviser Transaction
will result in a change of control of Destra pursuant to the 1940 Act. No assurance can be given that DCM will permanently retain
its interest in Destra.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">On October 14, 2020,
DCM entered into a Redemption Agreement with Continuum, pursuant to which DCM agreed to buy back all of the outstanding equity
interests of DCM. As of the Adviser Closing, Continuum will relinquish all equity and investor member rights in DCM, including
voting share privileges and all board rights and participation. The Adviser Closing is contingent upon, among other things, the
approval of the Fund&rsquo;s New Advisory Agreement by shareholders, which means that the Adviser Closing will not occur unless
shareholders of the Fund approve the New Advisory Agreement. The Adviser Transaction will result in a change of control of Destra
pursuant to the 1940 Act. Assuming shareholder approval of the New Advisory Agreement, Destra will continue to serve as the Fund&rsquo;s
investment adviser.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">It is anticipated that
the Adviser Transaction and Destra&rsquo;s affiliation with DCM will not result in any change in the services provided by Destra
to the Fund. It is further anticipated that the Adviser Transaction and New Advisory Agreement will not diminish in any way the
high level of investment advisory service previously provided by Destra.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Shareholders of the
Fund are being asked to approve a proposed New Advisory Agreement with Destra. The consummation of the Adviser Transaction will
constitute an assignment (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Existing Advisory Agreement. As required by the 1940 Act, the Existing
Advisory Agreement provides for its automatic termination in the event of an assignment. Accordingly, the Existing Advisory Agreement
will terminate upon the Adviser Closing of the Adviser Transaction, and the New Advisory Agreement is necessary if Destra is to
continue to manage the Fund following the Adviser Closing. However, the Adviser Closing is contingent upon, among other things,
the approval of the New Advisory Agreement by shareholders, which means that the Adviser Closing will not occur unless shareholders
of the Fund approve the New Advisory Agreement.</P>

reviewed and discussed written materials regarding the New Advisory Agreement that were provided in advance of the meeting and
throughout the year, as well as information presented at the meeting. The Trustees relied upon the advice of independent legal
counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating the New Advisory Agreement
and the weight to be given to each such factor. The conclusions reached by the Trustees were based on a comprehensive evaluation
of all of the information provided and were not the result of any one factor. Moreover, each Trustee may have afforded different
weight to the various factors in reaching his conclusions with respect to the New Advisory Agreement</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Trustees considered
the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided under the New Advisory Agreement and Destra&rsquo;s experience in providing
similar management services to other registered investment companies. The Trustees also considered Destra&rsquo;s ability to provide
administrative, operational and other non-advisory services to the Fund and the financial condition of Destra, including its financial
capacity to perform the services required under the New Advisory Agreement. The Trustees reviewed information provided by Destra
regarding various service provider arrangements and considered the ability of Destra to administer and oversee outside service
providers to the Fund. In addition, the Trustees considered matters related to Destra&rsquo;s compliance programs, its compliance
history and its dealings with regulators. The Trustees also considered the fact that Destra intends to continue to engage a sub-adviser
that will be responsible for all trading, portfolio construction and investment operations.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Trustees also considered
the impact that the Adviser Transaction is likely to have on the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by Destra
to the Fund under the New Advisory Agreement. In particular, the Trustees considered information provided by Destra which indicates
that the Adviser Transaction is not expected to result in any change in the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided
by Destra to the Fund. Based on their review, the Trustees concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services expected to
be provided to the Fund under the New Advisory Agreement are satisfactory.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Trustees evaluated
Fund performance during the one-year, three-year and five-year periods ended August 31, 2020 and from inception (March 17, 2012)
through August 31, 2020 in light of its investment objectives. The Trustees considered various performance measures and characteristics
of Fund performance relative to certain benchmarks and a peer group of funds with similar investment strategies. In evaluating
Destra&rsquo;s contribution to Fund performance, the Trustees considered the fact that a sub-adviser has been and will continue
to be responsible for day-to-day management of the Fund. The Trustees also considered information which indicates that the Adviser
Transaction is not expected to have any impact on performance of the Fund. Based on their review, the Trustees concluded that Fund
performance is acceptable for purposes of considering approval of the New Advisory Agreement.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Trustees reviewed
and considered the contractual advisory fee rate to be paid by the Fund to Destra for services under the New Advisory Agreement.
The Trustees also reviewed and considered information regarding the Fund&rsquo;s total expense ratio. The advisory fee rate and
expense ratio for the Fund were compared against the advisory fee rate and expense ratio of a peer group over specified time periods.
The peer group was comprised of other funds with similar investment strategies.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Trustees considered
the fact that the New Advisory Agreement and the Existing Advisory Agreement contain identical fee structures, and that the Adviser
Transaction and the New Advisory Agreement are not expected to have any impact on the Fund&rsquo;s expense ratio or individual
operating expenses. The Trustees also noted that the term of the existing Expense Limitation Agreement between Destra and Fund
will continue in effect until November 31, 2021 under the New Advisory Agreement. Pursuant to the Expense Reimbursement Agreement,
Destra has agreed to reduce its fees and/or absorb expenses of the Fund to ensure that total fund operating expenses after fee
waiver and/or reimbursement do not exceed certain agreed upon levels. The Trustees noted that Destra does not provide comparable
advisory services for any client for a fee that is less than the fee paid by the Fund. Based on their review, the Trustees concluded
that the advisory fee and expense structure were reasonable for purposes of considering approval of the New Advisory Agreement.</P>

and evaluated information regarding Destra&rsquo;s potential to realize economies of scale with respect to management of the Fund
and whether the Fund and its shareholders would appropriately benefit from any economies of scale. The Trustees noted that economies
of scale will be realized only if there is significant growth in assets under management. The Trustees considered Destra&rsquo;s
expectations for growth in assets under management and the time frame in which such growth may occur. The Trustees concluded that
economies of scale are not being realized and that breakpoints in the advisory fee or other arrangements will be considered if
Fund assets grow and Destra has the potential to realize economies of scale.</P>

an expense and profitability analysis provided by Destra with respect to its management of the Fund. The analysis covered the years
ending December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022. The Trustees evaluated Destra&rsquo;s estimated profitability in each year of the three-year
period and compared it against profit margins that have been found by courts to be reasonable under applicable securities laws.
The Trustees noted that Destra&rsquo;s expenses and profitability under the New Advisory Agreement are expected to be substantially
the same as under the Existing Advisory Agreement. Based on their review, the Trustees concluded that Destra&rsquo;s estimated
profitability in managing the Fund under the New Advisory Agreement is reasonable.</P>

as a result of their relationship with the Fund. The Trustees noted that Destra and its affiliates may derive reputational benefits

Based on their review, the Trustees concluded that the fall-out benefits that may be received by Destra and its affiliates are
reasonable.</P>

the presence of a quorum, abstentions, broker &ldquo;non-votes&rdquo; or withheld votes will be counted as present. Abstentions
will have the effect of a &ldquo;no&rdquo; vote for purposes of obtaining the requisite approval of the proposal. Broker &ldquo;non-votes&rdquo;
(that is, proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that such persons have not received instructions from the beneficial owners
or other persons entitled to vote shares on a particular matter with respect to which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary
power) will be treated the same as abstentions.</P>

of Trustees of the Fund. The cost of soliciting proxies, including the costs related to the printing, mailing and tabulation of
proxies and the fees of the proxy soliciting agent, ultimately will be borne by Validus, Destra and DCM. The Fund has engaged AST
Fund Solutions, LLC (&ldquo;AST&rdquo;), a professional proxy solicitation firm, to serve as the proxy soliciting and tabulation
agent for the Special Meeting and estimates AST&rsquo;s fees to be approximately $18,000. Those fees do not reflect the costs associated
with printing and mailing of the proxy materials and the costs associated with reimbursing brokerage firms and other financial
intermediaries for their expenses in forwarding proxy materials to the beneficial owners and soliciting them to execute proxies.
The Fund expects that the solicitation will be primarily by mail, but may also include telephone, electronic or other means of
communication. If the Fund does not receive your proxy by a certain time, you may receive a telephone call from the proxy soliciting
agent asking you to vote. The Fund does not reimburse Trustees and officers of the Fund, or regular employees and agents of Destra,
for any involvement in the solicitation of proxies.</P>
