The Adviser considers financial materiality as it is understood in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles information that would influence the judgment of an informed investor. The integration of ESG risks and opportunities is often a subjective exercise and may differ depending upon the characteristics of the asset class.

Active ownership activities include proxy voting, company engagement, shareholder resolutions, and public policy advocacy. The Fund is not subject to ESG Screening.
