Accounting risk – The Master Fund bases investment selections, in part, on information drawn from the financial statements of issuers. Financial statements may not be accurate, may reflect differing approaches with respect to auditing and reporting standards and may affect the ability of the Fund's investment manager to identify appropriate investment opportunities.

Commodities regulatory risk – Commodity-related operating companies typically are subject to significant federal, state and local government regulation in virtually every aspect of their operations, including how facilities are constructed, maintained and operated, environmental and safety controls, and the prices they may charge for the products and services they provide.   The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") and the exchanges on which futures contracts are traded are authorized to take extraordinary actions in the event of a market emergency, including, for example, increasing margin requirements, establishing daily limits and suspending trading. In addition, compliance with certain CFTC requirements may increase the Fund's expenses. Future regulatory developments may impact the Fund's ability to invest in commodity-linked derivatives.

Commodity-linked derivatives risk – The value of a commodity-linked derivative investment is typically based upon the price movements of a commodity, a commodity futures contract or commodity index, or some other readily measurable economic variable. The value of commodity-linked derivative instruments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, volatility of the underlying benchmark, changes in interest rates, or factors affecting a particular industry or commodity, such as drought, floods, weather, livestock disease, embargoes, tariffs and international economic, volatility in the spot market, and political and regulatory developments. The value of commodity-linked derivatives will rise or fall in response to changes in the underlying commodity or related index.  Investments in commodity-linked derivatives may be subject to greater volatility than non-derivative based investments.  A liquid secondary market may not exist for certain commodity-linked derivatives, and there can be no assurance that one will develop.

Commodity risk – Commodity prices can be extremely volatile and may be directly or indirectly affected by many factors, including changes in overall market movements, real or perceived inflationary trends, commodity index volatility, changes in interest rates or currency exchange rates, population growth and changing demographics, and factors affecting a particular industry or commodity, such as drought, floods, or other weather conditions, livestock disease, trade embargoes, competition from substitute products, transportation bottlenecks or shortages, fluctuations in supply and demand, tariffs, and international regulatory, political, and economic developments (e.g., regime changes and changes in economic activity levels).

Company risk – Investments in U.S. and/or foreign-traded equity securities may fluctuate more than the values of other types of securities in response to changes in a particular company's financial conditions.

Concentration risk – The Fund may concentrate its investments in certain securities. To the extent that the Fund focuses on particular countries, regions, industries, sectors, issuers, types of investment or limited number of securities from time to time, the Fund may be subject to greater risks of adverse economic, business or political developments than a fund that invests in a wider variety of countries, regions, industries, sectors or investments.

Currency risk – Investments in foreign currencies, securities that trade in or receive revenues in foreign currencies, or derivatives that provide exposure to foreign currencies are subject to the risk that those currencies may decline in value or, in the case of hedging positions, that the currency may decline in value relative to the currency being hedged. Currency exchange rates can be volatile and may be affected by a number of factors, such as the general economics of a country, the actions (or inaction) of U.S. and foreign governments or central banks, the imposition of currency controls, and speculation. A decline in the value of a foreign currency versus the U.S. dollar reduces the value in U.S. dollars of investments denominated in that foreign currency.

Derivatives risk – Investments in derivatives, which are financial instruments whose value depends on, or is derived from, the value of underlying assets, reference rates, or indices, can be highly volatile and may be subject to transaction costs and certain risks, such as unanticipated changes in securities prices and global currency investment.  Derivatives also are subject to leverage risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, counterparty risk, and credit risk.  They also involve the risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, interest rate or index. Gains or losses from derivatives can be substantially greater than the derivatives' original cost. Certain derivative transactions may be subject to counterparty risk.

Direct investments risk – Direct investments are investments made directly with an enterprise through a shareholder or similar agreement (i.e., not through publicly-traded shares or interests).  Direct investments may involve a high degree of business and financial risk that can result in substantial losses.  Because of the absence of any public trading market for many of these investments, the Fund may take longer to liquidate these positions than would be the case for publicly-traded securities.  Direct investments are generally considered illiquid and will be aggregated with other illiquid investments for purposes of the limitation on illiquid investments.

Emerging markets and less developed countries risk –Emerging market and less developed countries generally are located in Asia, the Middle East, Eastern Europe, Central and South America and Africa.  Investments in, or exposure to, emerging market and less developed countries are subject to all of the risks of investments in foreign securities, generally to a greater extent than in developed markets.  Investments in, or exposure to, emerging markets involve greater risk from economic and political systems that typically are less developed, and likely to be less stable, than those of more advanced countries.  The Fund also will be subject to the risk of adverse foreign currency rate fluctuations.  Emerging market and less developed countries may also have economies that are predominantly based on only a few industries or dependent on revenues from particular commodities. The risks of nationalization, expropriation or other confiscation of assets of non-U.S. issuers is also greater in emerging and less developed countries. As a result of these risks, investments in emerging market securities tend to be more volatile than investments in developed countries.

Equity securities risk – Common and preferred stocks represent equity ownership in a company. Stock markets are volatile, and equity securities generally have greater price volatility than fixed-income securities.  The price of equity securities will fluctuate and can decline and reduce the value of a portfolio investing in equities.  The value of equity securities purchased by a Fund could decline if the financial condition of the companies the Fund invests in decline or if overall market and economic conditions deteriorate.  They may also decline due to factors that affect a particular industry or industries, such as labor shortages or an increase in production costs and competitive conditions within an industry.  In addition, they may decline due to general market conditions that are not specifically related to a company or industry, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates or generally adverse investor sentiment.

Foreign regulatory risk – The Adviser is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential plc, a publicly-traded company incorporated in the United Kingdom and is not affiliated in any manner with Prudential Financial Inc., a company whose principal place of business is in the United States of America.  Through its ownership structure, the Adviser has a number of global financial industry affiliates.  As a result of this structure, and the asset management and financial industry business activities of the Adviser and its affiliates, the Adviser and the Fund may be prohibited or limited in effecting transactions in certain securities. Additionally, the Adviser and the Fund may encounter trading limitations or restrictions because of aggregation issues or other foreign regulatory requirements.  Foreign regulators or foreign laws may impose position limits on securities held by the Fund, and the Fund may be limited as to which securities it may purchase or sell, as well as the timing of such purchases or sales.  These foreign regulatory limits may increase the Fund's expenses and may limit the Fund's performance.

Foreign securities risk – Investments in, or exposure to, foreign securities involve risks not typically associated with U.S. investments.  These risks include, among others, adverse fluctuations in foreign currency values, possible imposition of foreign withholding or other taxes on income payable on the securities, as well as adverse political, social and economic developments such as political upheaval, acts of terrorism, financial troubles, or natural disasters.  Many foreign securities markets, especially those in emerging market countries, are less stable, smaller, less liquid, and less regulated than U.S. securities markets, and the costs of trading in those markets is often higher than in U.S. securities markets. There may also be less publicly-available information about issuers of foreign securities compared to issuers of U.S. securities. In addition, the economies of certain foreign markets may not compare favorably with the economy of the United States with respect to issues such as growth of gross national product, reinvestment of capital, resources and balance of payments position.

Forward and futures contract risk – The successful use of forward and futures contracts draws upon the Sub-Adviser's skill and experience with respect to such instruments and are subject to special risks including, but not limited to: (a) the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the instruments held by the Fund and the price of the forward or futures contract; (b) possible lack of a liquid secondary market for a forward or futures contract and the resulting inability to close a forward or futures contract when desired; (c) losses caused by unanticipated market movements, which are potentially unlimited; (d) the Sub-Adviser's inability to predict correctly the direction of securities prices, interest rates, currency exchange rates and other economic factors; (e) the possibility that the counterparty, clearing member or clearinghouse will default in the performance of its obligations; and (f) if the Fund has insufficient cash, it may have to sell securities from its portfolio to meet daily variation margin requirements, and the Fund may have to sell securities at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so.

Hedging instruments risk – The Fund, may attempt, from time to time, to hedge (protect) against currency risks, largely using forward foreign currency exchange contracts, where available and when, in the Sub-Adviser's opinion, it would be advantageous to the Fund. The Fund may also attempt, from time to time, to hedge against market risks by using other derivative investments, which may include purchasing or selling call and put options.  A call option gives the purchaser of the option, upon payment of a premium, the right to buy, and the seller of the option the obligation to sell, the underlying instrument at the exercise price.  Conversely, a put option gives the purchaser of the option, upon payment of a premium, the right to sell, and the seller of the option the obligation to buy, the underlying instrument at the exercise price.  Forward foreign currency exchange contracts and put options are considered derivative investments, because their value and performance depend, at least in part, on the value and performance of an underlying asset.  In addition, for certain reasons, the Fund may not seek to establish a perfect correlation between such hedging instruments and the portfolio instruments being hedged.  Such imperfect correlation may prevent the Fund from achieving the intended hedge or expose the Fund to risk of loss.  It is not possible to hedge fully or perfectly against any risk.

Investment in other investment companies risk – As with other investments, investments in other investment companies are subject to market and selection risk. In addition, if the Fund acquires shares of investment companies, including ones affiliated with the Fund, shareholders bear both their proportionate share of expenses in the Fund (including management and advisory fees) and, indirectly, the expenses of the investment companies in which the Fund invests. To the extent that shares of the Fund are held by an affiliated fund, the ability of the Fund itself to invest in other investment companies may be limited.

Investment strategy risk – The investment manager uses the principal investment strategies and other investment strategies to seek to achieve the Fund's investment objective. Investment decisions made by the investment manager in accordance with these investment strategies may not produce the returns the investment manager expected, and may cause the Fund's shares to decline in value or may cause the Fund to underperform other funds with similar investment objectives.

Investment style risk – Value stocks may not increase in price if other investors fail to recognize a security's potential worth, or the factors that are expected to increase the price of a security do not occur. A security's value may decline for reasons that directly relate to the issuer, such as management performance, corporate governance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer's goods or services.

Managed portfolio risk – As an actively managed portfolio, the value of the Fund's investments could decline because the financial condition of an issuer may change (due to such factors as management performance, reduced demand or overall market changes), financial markets may fluctuate or overall prices may decline, or the Sub-Adviser's investment techniques could fail to achieve the Fund's investment objective or negatively affect the Fund's investment performance.

Market risk – Portfolio securities may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally, such as real or perceived adverse economic, political, or regulatory conditions, inflation, changes in interest or currency rates or adverse investor sentiment, among others. Adverse market conditions may be prolonged and may not have the same impact on all types of securities.  The values of securities may fall due to factors affecting a particular issuer, industry or the securities market as a whole.

Mid-capitalization investing risk – The prices of securities of mid-capitalization companies may be more volatile than those of larger, more established companies.

Non-diversification risk – The Fund is non-diversified, as defined by the 1940 Act, and as such may invest in the securities of a limited number of issuers and may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer.  Therefore, a decline in the market price of a particular security held by the Fund may affect the Fund's performance more than if the Fund were a diversified investment company.

Options risk – If a Fund buys an option, it buys a legal contract giving it the right to buy or sell a specific amount of the underlying instrument or futures contract on the underlying instrument at an agreed upon price typically in exchange for a premium paid by a Fund. If a Fund sells an option, it sells to another person the right to buy from or sell to a Fund a specific amount of the underlying instrument or futures contract on the underlying instrument at an agreed upon price typically in exchange for a premium received by a Fund. Options may be illiquid and a Fund may have difficulty closing out its position.  The prices of options can be highly volatile and the use of options can lower total returns.

Sector risk – Companies with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors. Sector risk is the risk that securities of companies within specific sectors of the economy can perform differently than the overall market. This may be due to changes in such things as the regulatory or competitive environment or to changes in investor perceptions regarding a sector. Because the Fund may allocate relatively more assets to certain sectors than others, the Fund's performance may be more susceptible to any developments which affect those sectors emphasized by the Fund.  In addition, the Fund could underperform other funds investing in similar sectors or comparable benchmarks because of the investment manager's choice of securities within such sector.

Securities lending risk – Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in the collateral or delay in recovery of the collateral if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent.

Small-capitalization investing risk – Investing in smaller companies, some of which may be newer companies or start-ups, generally involves greater risks than investing in larger, more established ones. The securities of companies with smaller market capitalizations often are less widely held and trade less frequently and in lesser quantities, and their market prices often fluctuate more, than the securities of companies with larger market capitalizations.

Stock risk – Stock markets may experience significant short-term volatility and may fall sharply at times. Different stock markets may behave differently from each other and U.S. stock markets may move in the opposite direction from one or more foreign stock markets.  The prices of individual stocks generally do not all move in the same direction at the same time and a variety of factors can affect the price of a particular company's stock.

Structured investments risk – A structured investment is a derivative security designed to offer a return linked to a particular underlying security, currency, commodity or market. Structured investments may come in various forms including notes (such as exchange-traded notes), warrants and options to purchase securities. A Fund will typically use structured investments to gain exposure to a particular underlying security, currency, commodity or market when direct access to the security, currency, commodity, or market is limited or inefficient from a tax or cost standpoint. There can be no assurance that structured investments will trade at the same price or have the same value as the underlying security, currency, commodity or market. Investments in structured investments involve risks including, but not limited to, issuer risk, counterparty risk and market risk. Holders of structured investments bear risks of the underlying investment and are subject to issuer or counterparty risk because a Fund is relying on the creditworthiness of such issuer or counterparty and has no rights with respect to the underlying investment. Certain structured investments may be thinly traded or have a limited trading market and may have the effect of increasing a Fund's illiquidity to the extent that a Fund, at a particular point in time, may be unable to find qualified buyers for these securities.

Subsidiary risk – By investing in the Subsidiary, the Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the Subsidiary's investments. The commodity-related instruments held by the Subsidiary are generally similar to those that are permitted to be held by its Fund, without regard to certain U.S. federal income tax rules, and are generally subject to the same risks that apply to similar investments held directly by the Fund (see "Commodity-linked derivatives risk," "Commodities regulatory risk," and "Commodity risk" above). There can be no assurance that the investment objective of the Subsidiary will be achieved. The Subsidiary is not registered under the 1940 Act, and, unless otherwise noted in this Prospectus, is not subject to all the investor protections of the 1940 Act. However, the Fund wholly owns and controls the Subsidiary, and the Fund and the Subsidiary are both managed by the Fund's Adviser and Sub-Adviser, making it unlikely that the Subsidiary will take action contrary to the interests of the Fund and its shareholders. Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands could result in the inability of the Fund and/or the Subsidiary to operate as described in this Prospectus and the Fund's SAI and could affect the Fund.

Tax risk – In order for the Fund to qualify as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Internal Revenue Code" or the "Code"), it must derive at least 90% of its gross income each taxable year from "qualifying income," which is described in more detail in the SAI. Income and gains from certain commodity-linked instruments do not constitute "qualifying income" to a RIC for purposes of the 90% gross income test. The tax treatment of some other commodity-linked instruments in which a Fund might invest is not certain, in particular with respect to whether income or gains from such instruments constitute qualifying income to a RIC.  The Fund will therefore annually restrict its income from commodities and commodity-linked derivative instruments, such as commodity-linked swaps, and other assets that give rise to non-qualifying income to a maximum of 10% of the Fund's gross income.  The Fund's investment in the Subsidiary is expected to provide the Fund with exposure to the commodities markets within the limitations of the federal tax requirements of Subchapter M of the Code ("Subchapter M").  The annual net income, if any, realized by the Subsidiary and imputed for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the Fund would constitute "qualifying income" for purposes of the Fund's qualification as a RIC; under proposed regulations such income would constitute "qualifying income" only to the extent such net income is currently and timely distributed to the Fund. The tax treatment of commodity-linked notes, other commodity-linked derivatives and the Fund's investments in the Subsidiary may be adversely affected by future legislation, Treasury regulations and/or guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") that could affect whether income from such investments is "qualifying income" under Subchapter M, or otherwise affect the character, timing or amount of the Fund's taxable income or gains and thus distributions made by the Fund.
