1Effective commencing with shareholder reports filed and transmitted to shareholders after July 24, 2024, the Investment Adviser changed the primary benchmark from the ICE BofA U.S. Dollar 3-Month Deposit Offered Rate Constant Maturity Index to the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index in accordance with recent changes to regulatory disclosure requirements. The Fund continues to use the ICE BofA U.S. Dollar 3-Month Deposit Offered Rate Constant Maturity Index as an additional benchmark that the Investment Adviser believes more closely reflects the Fund's principal investment strategies.
2The index returns do not reflect deductions for fees, expenses, or taxes.
