                                                              Fair Value Measurement Summary at March 31, 2024
 
Equity securities listed or traded on a U.S. securities exchange for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted
sale price on the exchange on which the security is primarily traded.  Nasdaq Global Market securities are valued at the Nasdaq Official
 
Closing Price ("NOCP").  Unlisted U.S. equity securities and listed U.S. equity securities not traded on a particular valuation date are valued at
the mean of the most recent quoted bid and ask price on the relevant exchanges or markets.  Equity securities listed on a foreign exchange for
which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sales price on the exchange on which the security is primarily
 
traded.  Debt securities are normally valued at the mean of the closing bid and ask price and/or by using a combination of broker quotations or
evaluated prices provided by an independent pricing service.  Futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement prices established each
day on the principal exchange on which they are traded.  Forward contracts are valued based on the forward rate using information provided by
an independent pricing service.  Other assets and securities for which no market or broker quotations or evaluated prices are readily available
are valued in good faith at fair value. Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Valuation Rule”) establishes requirements for
determining fair value in good faith for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940, including related oversight and reporting requirements.
The Valuation Rule also defines when market quotations are “readily available” for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940, the
threshold for determining whether the Fund must fair value a security. The Valuation Rule permits the Fund’s board to designate the
   
Fund’s primary investment adviser as “valuation designee” to perform the Fund’s fair value determinations subject to board oversight
 
and certain reporting and other requirements intended to ensure that the registered investment company’s board receives the
   
information it needs to oversee the investment adviser’s fair value determinations. The Board has designated the Adviser as valuation
 
designee under the Valuation Rule to perform fair value functions in accordance with the requirements of the Valuation Rule. The
   
Adviser may value securities at fair value in good faith pursuant to the Adviser’s and the Fund’s procedures. The Adviser may use
   
prices provided by independent pricing services to assist in the fair valuation of the Fund’s portfolio securities.
   
           
The Trust has adopted accounting standards which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring
fair value.  These standards require additional disclosures about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the
   
measurements of fair value and a discussion of changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period.  These standards
   
define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date.  The fair value hierarchy is organized into three levels based upon the assumptions (referred to
 
as "inputs') used in pricing the asset or liability.  These standards state that "observable inputs" reflect the assumptions market
   
participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources and "unobservable
   
inputs" reflect an entity's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  These
 
inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
       
           
Level 1 - Quoted unadjusted prices for identical instruments in active markets to which the Trust has access at the date of measurement.
           
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not
active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active
   
markets.  Level 2 inputs are those in markets for which there are few transactions, the prices are not current, little public
   
information exists or instances where prices vary substantially over time or among brokered market makers.
   
           
Level 3 - Model derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.  Unobservable
 
inputs are those inputs that reflect the Trust's own assumptions that market participants would use to price the asset or liability
   
based on the best available information.
         
           
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those
 
securities.  As of March 31, 2024, the Fund's assets carried at fair value were classified as follows:
