Fund securities and other investments are valued at market value based on market quotations obtained or determined by independent pricing services recommended by the adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees, as described below. Market value is determined as follows:

Debt securities and unlisted preferred equity securities are valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by an independent pricing service or bid prices obtained from broker-dealers.

Senior loans and collateralized loan obligations are valued at bid prices supplied by an independent pricing service, if available.

Listed equity securities (including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds) are valued at the last sale price quoted on the exchange where they are traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation as reported by an independent pricing service. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking an NOCP, at the most recent bid quotations on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Unlisted equity securities (except unlisted preferred equity securities) are valued at the last sale price quoted in the market where they are traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation as reported by an independent pricing service. If there is no last sale price or closing bid quotation available, unlisted equity securities will be valued using evaluated bids furnished by an independent pricing service, if available.

In some foreign markets, an official close price and a last sale price may be available from the foreign exchange or market. In those cases, the official close price is used.

Broker-dealer bid prices may be used to value debt and unlisted equity securities and senior loans and collateralized loan obligations where an independent pricing service is unable to price a security or where an independent pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security.

Forward foreign currency contracts are valued utilizing interpolated rates determined based on information provided by an independent pricing service.

Centrally cleared swap agreements are valued at settlement prices of the clearing house on which the contracts were traded or prices obtained from broker-dealers.

Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. The Fund may also value securities and other investments at fair value in other circumstances such as when extraordinary events occur after the close of a foreign market but prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange. This may include situations relating to a single issuer (such as a declaration of bankruptcy or a delisting of the issuer’s security from the primary market on which it has traded) as well as events affecting the securities markets in general (such as market disruptions or closings and significant fluctuations in U.S. and/or foreign markets). When fair valuing its securities or other investments, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities or other market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the time the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) is calculated. Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of a security, and fair values used to determine the Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices, or from prices that are used by others, for the same securities. In addition, the use of fair value pricing may not always result in adjustments to the prices of securities held by the Fund.

Illiquid securities for which market quotations are readily available and have been evaluated by the adviser are considered and classified as fair valued securities pursuant to the Fund’s pricing policies and procedures.

As of March 31, 2022, securities held by the Fund were fair valued as follows:

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

 

(a)

Variable rate security. Rate as of March 31, 2022 is disclosed.


(b)

Variable rate security. The interest rate adjusts periodically based on; (i) changes in current interest rates and/or prepayments on underlying pools of assets, if applicable, (ii) reference to a base lending rate plus or minus a margin, and/or (iii) reference to a base lending rate adjusted by a multiplier and/or subject to certain floors or caps. Rate as of March 31, 2022 is disclosed.

(c)

Payment-in-kind security for which the issuer, at each interest payment date, makes interest payments in additional principal.

(d)

Payment-in-kind security for which the issuer, at each interest payment date, may make interest payments in cash and/or additional principal. For the period ended March 31, 2022, interest payments were made in cash.

(e)

The issuer is in default with respect to interest and/or principal payments. Income is not being accrued.

(f)

ECAF I Blocker Ltd.

     12/20/2016      $ 1,000,000      $ 65,920        Less than 0.1

 

(o)

The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement, under which the Fund acquires securities as collateral and agrees to resell the securities at an agreed upon time and at an agreed upon price. It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty, including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities. As of March 31, 2022, the Fund had an investment in a repurchase agreement for which the value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the repurchase agreement.

 

144A    All or a portion of these securities are exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At March 31, 2022, the value of Rule 144A holdings amounted to $92,162,742 or 62.3% of net assets.

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

   

Level 2 — prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.); and

 

   

Level 3 — prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Details of the major categories of the Fund’s investments are reflected within the Portfolio of Investments.

(a)

Includes a security fair valued at zero by the Fund’s adviser using Level 3 inputs.

(b)

Fair valued by the Fund’s adviser.


The Fund’s pricing policies and procedures are recommended by the adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Debt securities are valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by an independent pricing service. Broker-dealer bid prices may be used if an independent pricing service either is unable to price a security or does not provide a reliable price for a security. The Fund’s adviser may use internally developed models to validate broker-dealer bid prices that are only available from a single broker or market maker. Such securities are considered and classified as fair valued. Broker-dealer bid prices for which the Fund does not have knowledge of the inputs used by the broker-dealer are categorized in Level 3. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Fair valued securities may be categorized in Level 3.


The following is a reconciliation of Level 3 investments for which significant unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value as of December 31, 2021 and/or March 31, 2022:
