Investment Valuation - The following is a summary of the Fund's pricing procedures.  It is intended to be a general discussion and may not necessarily reflect all pricing procedures followed by the Fund.

Securities listed on the NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). Investments in registered open-end investment companies other than exchange-traded funds are
valued at their reported net asset value (“NAV”). Equity securities that are traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last sale price at the close of that exchange. The securities valued using quoted
prices in active markets are classified as Level 1 investments. Securities not listed on an exchange, but for which market transaction prices are reported, are valued at the last sale price as of the close of the New York
Stock Exchange. Non-exchange listed securities are valued based on evaluations provided by a third party, when available, or at the mean of the closing bid and asked prices or valued based on the announced price.
These securities are classified as Level 2 investments. In pricing corporate bonds and other debt securities that are not obligations of the U.S. Government or its agencies, the mean of the reported closing bid and
asked prices is used. These securities are classified as Level 2 investments. As a secondary source, an individual broker bid may be used to value debt securities if the Adviser reasonably believes such bid is an
actionable bid in that the broker would be willing to transact at that price. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 or Level 3 investments.

Exchange-traded options are valued at the higher of the intrinsic value of the option (i.e., what the Fund would pay or can receive upon exercising the option) or the last reported composite sale price.
If no sales are reported or if the last sale is outside the bid and asked parameters, the higher of the intrinsic value of the option or the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices is used. Non-exchange-traded
options will be valued at the higher of the intrinsic value of the option or at the price supplied by the counterparty. Options for which there is an active market are classified as Level 1 investments, but options not listed on
an exchange are classified as Level 2 investments. Investments in United States government securities (other than short-term securities) are valued at the mean between the 4:00 PM bid and asked prices supplied by a
third party vendor. Short-term fixed-income securities having a maturity of less than 60 days are valued at amortized cost. Registered open-end investment companies other than exchange-traded funds (i.e., ETFs) are
valued at their reported NAV per share.

Securities for which there are no market quotations readily available or for which such quotations are unreliable are valued at fair value as determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees and
under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. The factors for fair valuation the Adviser may consider include, among other things: fundamental analytical data; the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition; an
evaluation of forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold; public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers. When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of
securities used by the Fund to calculate its NAV may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 or 3 depending on the inputs as described below.
At September 30, 2014, securities fair valued in good faith based on the absolute value of long investments and based on the absolute value of unrealized gains or losses on swap contracts represented 0.15% of net assets.

The Fund has performed an analysis of all existing investments to determine the significance and character of all inputs to their fair value determination. Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s
investments.
 
These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
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 Fund’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 an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following tables provide the fair value measurements of applicable Fund assets and liabilities by level within the fair value hierarchy for the Fund as of September 30, 2014. These assets and liabilities are measured
on a recurring basis.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Fund’s net assets as of September 30, 2014.

Swap contracts and forward currency exchange contracts are valued at the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the instrument.
     
   
The Level 2 securities are priced using inputs such as current yields, discount rates, credit quality, yields on comparable securities, trading volume, maturity date, market bid and asked prices, prices on comparable
securities and other significant inputs. There were no transfers into or out of Level 1 or 2 Securities during the period. Transfers between levels are recognized at the end of the reporting period.

Item 2. Controls and Procedures.
 
(a)  
The Registrant’s Co-Presidents/Principal Executive Officers and Treasurer/Principal Financial Officer have reviewed the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 30a-3(c) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”)) (17 CFR 270.30a-3(c)) as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of the report as required by Rule 30a-3(b) under the 1940 Act (17 CFR 270.30a-3(b)) and Rule 13a-15(b) or Rule 15d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (17 CFR 240.13a-15(b) or 240.15d-15(d)).  Based on their review, such officers have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are reasonably designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in this report is appropriately recorded, processed, summarized and reported and made known to them by others within the Registrant and by the Registrant’s service provider.

(b)  
There were no changes in the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 30a-3(d) under the 1940 Act) (17 CFR 270.30a-3(d)) that occurred during the Registrant's last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting.

 
Item 3. Exhibits.
 
Separate certifications for each principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Registrant as required by Rule 30a-2(a) under the 1940 Act (17 CFR 270.30a-2(a)).  Filed herewith.
