Item 23. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control with Registrant.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 24. Indemnification

 

Reference is made to Article VIII, Section 1, of the Registrant’s Second Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust, which is incorporated by reference herein.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant by the Registrant pursuant to the Trust’s Second Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust, its By-Laws or otherwise, the Registrant is aware that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and, therefore, is unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by trustees, officers or controlling persons of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustees, officers or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

Item 25. Business and Other Connections of the Trust’s Investment Advisor and Portfolio Managers.

 

Unless otherwise stated, the principal business address of each organization listed is 1345 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10105.
