Any distributions involving payment of dividends out of the Fund’s capital or payment of dividends effectively out of the Fund’s capital (as the case may be) may result in an immediate reduction of the net asset value per share. • Investment in the Fund may involve a high degree of risk and may not be suitable for all investors.
