U.S. Natural Gas Infrastructure Portfolio Selection. The Fund is strategically designed to allocate its assets among three categories of the U.S. natural gas value chain midstream, upstream, and downstream: midstream involves the transportation (by pipeline, rail, barge, tanker or truck), storage, distribution, and wholesale marketing of natural gas products. upstream includes searching for potential natural gas fields, drilling exploratory wells, and subsequently operating the wells that recover and bring the raw natural gas to the surface. downstream is the processing and purifying of raw natural gas, as well as the marketing and distribution of products derived from natural gas, including methane, nitrogen, propane and hydrogen. U.S. Natural Gas Infrastructure Companies will include companies in the energy, utilities and materials sectors. The Fund expects to concentrate the Funds portfolio in midstream companies, with the remainder principally in upstream and downstream companies. The Funds exposure to upstream, midstream and downstream companies may vary depending on market conditions. The Funds exposure to the midstream sector may include investments in master limited partnerships (MLPs), which will be limited to 25% of the Funds portfolio at the time of investment. MLPs are publicly -traded limited partnerships that are listed on a national securities exchange. MLPs are primarily focused on natural resource -related activities, including natural gas. The Funds portfolio managers employ a growth at a reasonable price (GARP) approach to select U.S. Natural Gas Infrastructure Companies that have earnings, cash flow, and dividend growth potential. The Funds portfolio managers consider industry and macroeconomic drivers, market capitalization, and relative valuation of the securities, as well as certain quantitative and qualitative factors, to evaluate the potential securities for inclusion. The Funds portfolio will generally consist of approximately 20 to 25 securities of U.S. Natural Gas Infrastructure Companies, with weights determined based on the expected growth adjusted valuation and the optimal weighting of each security. In accordance with this investment methodology, the Funds portfolio managers intend to construct the Funds portfolio with securities they consider to be overperforming relative to the overall market and will over -weight specific companies that are overperforming relative to the peer companies within the upstream, midstream, or downstream categories. Portfolio Eligibility. The eligible universe for the Funds portfolio begins with all U.S. -listed securities with exposure across the U.S. natural gas ecosystem, focusing on the upstream, midstream, and downstream categories. The initial universe is comprised of all securities which meet certain size, float and liquidity requirements and satisfy the below criteria: The security is listed on a major U.S. exchange Only one share class of each company is eligible for inclusion in the universe. The eligible share class is the share class of a company with the highest minimum average daily value traded over the 3 months preceding the universe screening. American depositary receipts (ADRs) are excluded. The security must either: a. Derive more than 50% of its revenues, directly or indirectly, from one of the U.S. midstream, downstream, and/or upstream natural gas categories as classified by the FactSet Revere Business Industry Classification System (RBICS) (or Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) equivalent); or b. Be within one of the RBICS (or GICS equivalent) U.S. midstream, downstream, and/or upstream categories and meet at least one of the following criteria: i. have a leading market share in a natural gas industry group, ii. be one of the top 50% fastest growing companies within a natural gas industry, as measured by year -over-year revenue reported in the companys publicly available financial statements, or iii. be organized as an MLP with a focus on natural gas. See Additional Information about the Funds Strategies and Risks RBICS Classifications for further information on the RBICS industry groups. The Fund may invest in companies with various market capitalizations. The Fund will not concentrate its investments (i.e., invest more than 25% of the value of its total assets) in securities of issuers in any industry or group of industries, except that the Fund will concentrate its assets in securities of issuers in the natural gas infrastructure industry or group of industries.
