At September 30, 2017, there were no Level III portfolio
investments for which significant unobservable inputs were used to
determine fair value.
The Funds’ policy is to recognize transfers between valuation
levels at the end of the reporting period.
At September 30, 2017, there were no significant transfers in
or out of Level I and Level II fair value measurements.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments are not
necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in
those securities.

December 31, 2016 using the fair value hierarchy:
