1 The portfolio composition, strategy, risks and fees and expenses, and accordingly the performance, of alternative products such as options strategies may differ significantly from other traditional asset class offerings, including equities and fixed income products. Put writing makes an explicit trade-off between up-market participation and down-market participation, while still seeking reasonable returns in flat markets.

Shares in the Fund may fluctuate based on market condition, interest rates credit quality and other factors. Most of the Fund's performance depends on what happens in the equity and fixed income markets. Markets may be volatile and values of individual securities and other investments, including those of a particular type, may decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, economic or other developments that may cause broad changes in market value, public perceptions concerning these developments, and adverse investor sentiment.

Derivatives involve risks different from, and in some respects greater than, those associated with more traditional investments, as derivatives can be highly complex and volatile, difficult to value, highly illiquid, and the Fund may not be able to close out or sell a derivative at a particular time or at an anticipated price. Derivatives can create leverage, and the Fund could lose more than the amount it invests. There can be no assurance that the Fund's use of any leverage will be successful and the Fund's investment exposure can exceed its total assets. Additionally, derivatives involve the risk that the counterparty or clearing organization will default in the performance of its obligations.
Options involve investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. By writing put options, the Fund assumes the risk of declines in the value of the underlying instrument and the risk that it must purchase the underlying instrument at an exercise price that may be higher than the market price of the instrument, including the possibility of a loss up to the entire strike price of each option it sells but without the corresponding opportunity to benefit from potential increases in the value of the underlying instrument.. If there is a broad market decline and the Fund is not able to close out its written put options, it may result in substantial losses to the Fund. The Fund will receive a premium from writing options, but the premium received may not be sufficient to offset any losses sustained from exercised put options.

Fund performance is dependent upon the success of the Portfolio Manager in implementing the Fund's investment strategies in pursuit of its objective. The Fund's performance will also depend on the success of implementing and managing the investment models that assist in allocating the Fund's assets.
