Existing investors who had an open and funded account on December 21, 2015 can continue to invest in the Fund through exchanges and additional purchases after such date. The following categories of investors may continue to open new accounts in the Fund after the close of market on December 21, 2015, (1) clients of discretionary investment allocation programs where such programs had investments in the Fund prior to the close of market on December 21, 2015, and (2) Employer Sponsored Retirement Plans or benefit plans and their participants where the Fund was available to participants prior to the close of market on December 21, 2015.
