Investment Objectives

The fundamental investment objective is to seek to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in, or gaining exposure to, equity securities of issuers in the United States, while seeking to reduce volatility. The fundamental investment objective may only be changed with the approval of a majority of unitholders, given at a meeting called for that purpose.

Investment Strategy

The portfolio adviser seeks to achieve the fundamental investment objective of the Fund by investing primarily in, or obtaining exposure to, a diversified portfolio of U.S. stocks that are included in the S&P Composite 1500 Index (“S&P 1500”), with a focus on stocks with lower volatility.
