PROSPECTUS

November 27, 2024

ARK VENTURE FUND

SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

ARK Venture Fund (the "Fund") is a Delaware statutory trust that is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company.

Investment Objective. The Fund's investment objective is to seek long-term growth of capital. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

Interval Fund. The Fund is designed primarily for long-term investors and not as a trading vehicle. The Fund is an "interval fund" (defined below) pursuant to which it, subject to applicable law, will conduct quarterly repurchase offers for between 5% and 25% of the Fund's outstanding shares of beneficial interest ("Shares") at net asset value ("NAV"). In connection with any given repurchase offer, it is expected that the Fund will offer to repurchase only the minimum amount of 5% of its outstanding Shares. It is also possible that a repurchase offer may be oversubscribed, with the result that shareholders may only be able to have a portion of their Shares repurchased. The Fund does not currently intend to list its Shares for trading on any national securities exchange. The Shares are, therefore, not readily marketable. Even though the Fund will make quarterly repurchase offers to repurchase a portion of the Shares to seek to provide liquidity to shareholders, you should consider the Shares to be illiquid. The Fund will make repurchase offers in the months of March, June, September and December. See "Principal Risks of the Fund - Repurchase Program Risk."

Unlisted Closed-End Fund. An investment in the Fund is subject to, among others, the following risks:

●	The Fund has limited operating history. There is not expected to be any secondary trading market in the Shares.

●	Unlike an investor in many closed-end funds, Shareholders should not expect to be able to sell their Shares regardless of how the Fund performs. An investment in the Fund is considered illiquid.

●	Unlike many closed-end funds, the Shares are not listed on any securities exchange. The Fund intends to provide liquidity through quarterly offers to repurchase a limited amount of the Fund's Shares (expected to be 5% of the Fund's Shares outstanding per quarter).

●	There is no assurance that distributions paid by the Fund will be maintained or that dividends will be paid at all.

●

The Fund's distributions may be funded from unlimited amounts of offering proceeds or borrowings, which may constitute a return of capital and reduce the amount of capital available to the Fund for investment. Any capital returned to Shareholders through distributions will be distributed after payment of fees and expenses.

●

The Fund invests in private, early-stage companies that may be considered highly speculative. As a result, investment in Shares of the Fund involves substantial risks including risks associated with uncertainty regarding the valuations of private company investments, high rate of failure among the early-stage companies, and restricted liquidity in securities of such companies.

The date of this prospectus is November 27, 2024.

Per Share(1)	Total(1)
Public Offering Price	At Current Net Asset Value	Unlimited
Sales Load(1)	N/A	N/A
Proceeds to Fund Before Expenses(2)	Amount Invested at Current NAV	Unlimited

⁽¹⁾ Generally, the stated minimum initial investment by an investor in the Fund for Shares is $500, which stated minimum may be reduced for certain investors pursuant to the purchase terms ("Purchase Terms") in the Fund's plan of distribution (the "Plan of Distribution"). The Shares are not subject to a sales load. The Fund is offering an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest on a continuous basis.

⁽²⁾ The Fund's organizational and offering expenses (including pre-effective expenses) were $885,178 or $0.90 per share (per share information is as of July 31, 2024). See "Fund Expenses." ARK Investment Management LLC ("ARK" or "Adviser") has incurred the Fund's organizational costs and the initial offering costs associated with the Fund's continuous offering of Shares. Pursuant to an expense reimbursement agreement (the "Expense Reimbursement Agreement") between the Fund and the Adviser, the Fund will be obligated to reimburse the Adviser for any such payments within three years of the Adviser incurring such expenses subject to the limitation that a reimbursement (an "Adviser Recoupment") will be made only if and to the extent that: (i) the Fund's net assets exceeds $125,000,000; and (ii) the Adviser Recoupment does not cause the Fund's net assets to fall below $125,000,000.

Structure. The Fund does not currently intend to list its Shares for trading on any securities exchange and does not expect any secondary market to develop for its Shares. Shareholders of the Fund are not able to have their Shares redeemed or otherwise sell their Shares on a daily basis because the Fund is an unlisted closed-end fund. To provide some liquidity to Shareholders, the Fund is structured as an "interval fund" and conducts periodic repurchase offers for a portion of its outstanding Shares, as described below. An investment in the Fund is suitable only for long-term investors who can bear the risks associated with the limited liquidity of the Shares.

Investment Adviser. The investment adviser to the Fund is ARK Investment Management LLC, an investment adviser registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the "Advisers Act"). Under the terms of an investment advisory agreement between the Fund and the Adviser ("Advisory Agreement"), the Adviser serves as the adviser to the Fund, subject to the general oversight of the Fund's Board of Trustees ("Board") and is responsible for the day-to-day investment management of the Fund.

Securities Offered. The Fund is offering an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest on a continuous basis. The minimum initial investment by a shareholder for the Shares is $500, while subsequent investments may be made in any amount. The Fund reserves the right to waive the investment minimum. Shares are being offered through Foreside Fund Services, LLC (the "Distributor") at an offering price equal to the Fund's then current NAV per Share.

This prospectus concisely provides the information that a prospective investor should know about the Fund before investing. Investors are advised to read this prospectus carefully and to retain it for future reference. Additional information about the Fund, including a statement of additional information, dated November 27, 2024 (the "Statement of Additional Information"), has been filed with the SEC and is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this prospectus. The Statement of Additional Information and, when available, the Fund's annual and semi-annual reports and other information filed with the SEC, can be obtained upon request and without charge by writing to the Fund at ARK Investment Management, LLC, 200 Central Avenue, Suite 220, St. Petersburg, Florida 33701, or by calling toll-free 888-511-2347.

The address of the SEC's website is provided solely for the information of prospective investors and is not intended to be an active link.

Shares are not deposits or obligations of, and are not guaranteed or endorsed by, any bank or other insured depository institution, and Shares are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any other government agency.

Neither the SEC nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

SUMMARY OF TERMS

The following information is only a summary and does not contain all of the information that a prospective investor should consider before investing in the Fund. Before investing, a prospective investor in the Fund should carefully read the more detailed information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus and the Statement of Additional Information.

THE FUND	The Fund is a Delaware statutory trust that is registered under the 1940 Act as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Fund is operated as an "interval fund" (as defined below).
THE ADVISER	ARK serves as the Fund's investment adviser. ARK is registered as an investment adviser with the SEC under the Advisers Act.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE	The Fund's investment objective is to seek long-term growth of capital. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.
INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES AND STRATEGIES	The Fund will invest under normal circumstances, primarily in domestic and foreign equity securities of companies that are relevant to the Fund's investment theme of disruptive innovation. The Adviser defines "disruptive innovation" as the introduction of a technologically enabled new product or service that potentially changes the way the world works. The Adviser believes that companies relevant to this theme are those that rely on or benefit from the development of new products or services, technological improvements and advancements in scientific research relating to the areas of genomics ("Genomic Revolution Companies"); innovation in automation and manufacturing ("Automation Transformation Companies"), transportation, energy ("Energy Transformation Companies"), artificial intelligence ("Artificial Intelligence Companies") and materials; the increased use of shared technology, infrastructure and services ("Next Generation Internet Companies"); and technologies that make financial services more efficient ("FinTech Innovation Companies"). In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the Fund may invest, without limit, in privately placed or restricted securities (including in Rule 144A securities, which are privately placed securities purchased by qualified institutional buyers), illiquid securities and securities in which no secondary market is readily available, including those of private companies. Issuers of these securities may not have a class of securities registered, and may not be subject to periodic reporting, pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Fund may invest in such securities without limitation. The Fund currently expects to invest the remainder of its assets in publicly traded securities. In selecting companies that the Adviser believes are relevant to a particular investment theme, the Adviser seeks to identify, using its own internal research and analysis, companies capitalizing on disruptive innovation or that are enabling the further development of a theme in the markets in which they operate. The Adviser's internal research and analysis leverages insights from diverse sources, including external research, to develop and refine its investment themes and identify and take advantage of trends that have ramifications for individual companies or entire industries. The types of companies that the Adviser believes are Genomic Revolution Companies, Automation Transformation Companies, Energy Transformation Companies, Artificial Intelligence Companies, Next Generation Internet Companies or FinTech Innovation Companies are described below: Genomic Revolution Companies. Companies that the Adviser believes are substantially focused on and are expected to substantially benefit from extending and enhancing the quality of human and other life by incorporating technological and scientific developments, improvements and advancements in genomics into their business, such as by offering new products or services that rely on genomic sequencing, analysis, synthesis or instrumentation. These companies may include ones across multiple sectors, such as healthcare, information technology, materials, energy and consumer discretionary. These companies may also develop, produce, manufacture or significantly rely on or enable bionic devices, bio-inspired computing, bioinformatics, molecular medicine and agricultural biotechnology. Automation Transformation Companies. Companies that the Adviser believes are focused on humans capitalizing on the productivity of machines, such as through the automation of functions, processes or activities previously performed by human labor, such as transportation through an emphasis on mobility as a service, or the use of robotics to perform other functions, activities or processes. Energy Transformation Companies. Companies that the Adviser believes seek to capitalize on innovations or evolutions in: (i) ways that energy is stored or used; (ii) the discovery, collection and/or implementation of new sources of energy, including unconventional sources of oil or natural gas; and/or (iii) the production or development of new materials for use in commercial applications of energy production, use or storage. Artificial Intelligence Companies. Companies that the Adviser considers to be Artificial Intelligence ("AI") Companies include companies that: (i) design, create, integrate, or deliver robotics, autonomous technology, and/or AI in the form of products, software, or systems; (ii) develop the building block components for robotics, autonomous technology, or AI, such as advanced machinery, semiconductors and databases used for machine learning; (iii) provide their own value-added services on top of such building block components, but are not core to the companies' product or service offerings; and/or (iv) develop computer systems that are able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and translation between languages.

Next Generation Internet Companies. Companies that the Adviser believes are focused on and expected to benefit from shifting the bases of technology infrastructure from hardware and software to the cloud, enabling mobile and local services, such as companies that rely on or benefit from the increased use of shared technology, infrastructure and services. These companies may include mail order houses which generate the entirety of their business through websites and which offer internet-based products and services, such as streaming media or cloud storage in addition to traditional physical goods. These companies may also include ones that develop, use or rely on innovative payment methodologies, big data, the "internet of things," machine learning, and social distribution and media. FinTech Innovation Companies. Companies that the Adviser believes are focused on and expected to benefit from the shifting of the financial sector and economic transactions to technology infrastructure platforms, and technological intermediaries. FinTech Innovation Companies may also develop, use or rely on innovative payment platforms and methodologies, point of sale providers, e-commerce, transactional innovations, business analytics, fraud reduction, frictionless funding platforms, peer-to-peer lending, blockchain technologies, intermediary exchanges, asset allocation technology, cryptocurrency, mobile payments, and risk pricing and pooling aggregators. The Fund may have exposure to bitcoin, indirectly through the Bitcoin Investment Trust ("GBTC") and/or Canadian exchange-traded products ("ETPs"). The Fund may also have exposure to other cryptocurrencies indirectly through an investment in a grantor trust or an investment vehicle to the extent permitted by, and in accordance with, any future law, regulation, guidance, or exemptive relief provided by the SEC or its staff or other regulatory agency or body having jurisdiction. The Fund's exposure to cryptocurrency may change over time and, accordingly, such exposure may not always be represented in the Fund's portfolio. The Adviser will select investments for the Fund that represent its highest-conviction investment ideas within the theme of disruptive innovation, as described above, in constructing the Fund's portfolio. A disruptive innovation or technology may constitute a small portion of a company's overall business. As a result, the success of a disruptive innovation or technology may not materially affect the value of the equity securities issued by the company. The Adviser's process for identifying Genomic Revolution Companies, Automation Transformation Companies, Energy Transformation Companies, Artificial Intelligence Companies, Next Generation Internet Companies and FinTech Innovation Companies uses both "top down" (thematic research sizing the potential total available market and seeking to surface the prime beneficiaries) and "bottom up" (valuation, fundamental and quantitative measures) approaches. In both the Adviser's "top down" and "bottom up" approaches, the Adviser evaluates environmental, social, and governance ("ESG") considerations. In its "top down" approach, the Adviser uses the framework of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals to integrate ESG considerations into its research and investment process. The Adviser, however, does not use ESG considerations to limit, restrict or otherwise exclude companies or sectors from the Fund's investment universe. In its "bottom up" approach, the Adviser makes its investment decisions primarily based on its analysis of the potential of individual companies, while integrating ESG considerations into that process. ESG considerations are not the only factors considered by the Adviser and as a result, the companies in which the Fund invests may not be companies with favorable ESG characteristics or high ESG ratings. The Adviser's highest-conviction investment ideas are those that it believes present the best risk-reward opportunities. Under normal circumstances, substantially all of the Fund's assets will be invested in equity securities, including common stocks, partnership interests, business trust shares, other equity investments or ownership interests in business enterprises and pooled investment vehicles, including venture capital funds, that would be investment companies but for Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act ("Private Funds"), and preferred stock or debt obligations that are convertible into equity securities. The Fund's investments will include early- to late-stage private companies and micro-, small-, medium- and large-capitalization public companies. Under normal circumstances, the Fund expects to invest 20% - 90% of its assets in securities of private companies and the remainder of its assets in publicly traded securities. The Fund's investments in foreign equity securities will be in both developed and emerging markets. The Fund may invest in foreign securities (including investments in American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") and Global Depositary Receipts ("GDRs")) and securities listed on local foreign exchanges. The Fund will be concentrated (i.e., more than 25% of the value of the Fund's assets) in securities of issuers having their principal business activities in groups of industries in the technology sector. The Fund is classified as a "non-diversified" investment company under the 1940 Act, which means that it may invest a high percentage of its assets in a limited number of issuers and may invest a larger proportion of its assets in a single issuer.

LEVERAGE	The Fund may use leverage to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. The Fund is permitted to obtain leverage using any form or combination of financial leverage instruments, including through funds borrowed from banks or other financial institutions (e.g., a credit facility), margin facilities, or the issuance of notes in an aggregate amount up to 331∕3% of the Fund's total assets (or in the case of the issuance of preferred shares, 50% of the Fund's total assets), including any assets purchased with borrowed money, immediately after giving effect to the leverage. The Fund may also use leverage generated by reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls and similar transactions. The Fund may use leverage opportunistically and may use different types, combinations or amounts of leverage over time, based on the Adviser's views concerning market conditions and investment opportunities. The Fund's strategies relating to its use of leverage may not be successful, and the Fund's use of leverage may cause the Fund's NAV to be more volatile than it would otherwise be. There can be no guarantee that the Fund will leverage its assets or, to the extent the Fund does use leverage, the percentage of its total assets such leverage will represent. See "Investment Objective, Opportunities and Strategies - Leverage."
MANAGEMENT FEES	Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement, dated as of July 26, 2022 (the "Investment Advisory Agreement"), by and between the Fund and the Adviser, and in consideration of the advisory services provided by the Adviser to the Fund, the Adviser is entitled to a management fee (the "Management Fee"). The Management Fee is calculated and payable monthly at the annual rate of 2.75% of the average daily value of the Fund's Net Assets. "Net Assets" means the total assets of the Fund minus the Fund's liabilities.
EXPENSE LIMITATION AGREEMENT	The Adviser and the Fund have entered into an Expense Limitation Agreement under which the Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse the Fund's operating expenses on a monthly basis to the extent that the Fund's total annualized fund operating expenses (excluding expenses directly related to the costs of making investments; taxes; brokerage costs; acquired fund fees and expenses; expenses of litigation, indemnification and shareholder meetings; organizational expenses; offering costs; and extraordinary expenses) exceed 2.90% (the "Expense Limit") of the Fund's average daily net assets. Pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement, the Adviser may receive reimbursement of any fees waived and/or excess expense payments paid by it pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement within three years of such fee waiver and/or expense payment, if such reimbursement can be achieved within the Expense Limit or the expense limit that was in effect at the time of the waiver and/or expense payment, whichever is lower, and such reimbursement has been approved by the Trustees of the Fund. The Expense Limitation Agreement will remain in effect until the later of either (i) November 28, 2025 or (ii) the Fund's average net assets over a 12-month period exceed $250,000,000 unless and until the Board approves its earlier termination.
ADMINISTRATION EXPENSES	Pursuant to the administration agreement between Bank of New York Mellon and the Fund, Bank of New York Mellon performs, or administers the performance of, certain of the Fund's required administrative services, which include, among other things, providing administrative assistance in accounting, legal, compliance, and operations, preparing the financial records that the Fund is required to maintain and preparing reports to the Fund's shareholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, Bank of New York Mellon coordinates the preparation and filing of the Fund's tax returns and generally coordinates the payment of the Fund's expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Fund.
BOARD OF TRUSTEES	The Board has overall responsibility for monitoring and overseeing the Fund's management and operations. A majority of the Trustees are not "interested persons" as defined in the 1940 Act, of the Trust ("Independent Trustees"). See "Management of the Fund."
PURCHASE OF SHARES	The Fund's Shares are offered on a daily basis. Please see "Plan of Distribution" for purchase instructions and additional information. The minimum initial investment for Shares is $500; subsequent investments may be made in any amount. The Fund reserves the right to waive the investment minimum. See "Distributions - Dividend Reinvestment Plan."
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION	Foreside Fund Services, LLC, located at Three Canal Plaza, Suite 100, Portland, Maine 04101 (the "Distributor"), serves as the Fund's principal underwriter and acts as the distributor of the Fund's Shares on a best efforts basis, subject to various conditions. The Fund's Shares are offered for sale through the Distributor at NAV. The Distributor also may enter into broker-dealer selling agreements with other broker dealers for the sale and distribution of the Fund's Shares. The Distributor is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of the Fund's Shares, but will use its best efforts to solicit orders for the sale of the Shares. Shares of the Fund will not be listed on any national securities exchange and the Distributor will not act as a market maker in Fund Shares. The Fund's Shares are primarily offered and distributed by the Distributor and its associated persons through investment platforms and financial intermediaries.

	The Fund does not pay investment platforms or financial intermediaries any sales commissions for hosting this offering on any such platforms; however, financial intermediaries may earn Service Fees as discussed below. This offering is being made on a "best efforts" basis. Investment platforms and financial intermediaries may charge fees for the services they provide to you in connection with processing your transaction order or maintaining your account with them. No market currently exists for the Fund's Shares. The Fund's Shares are not listed and the Fund does not currently intend to list its Shares for trading on any securities exchange, and the Fund does not anticipate that any secondary market will develop for its Shares. Neither the Adviser nor the Fund intends to make a market in the Fund's Shares. The Adviser and/or its related companies may pay investment platforms, broker/dealers or other financial intermediaries for the sale of the Fund Shares and related services. These payments create a conflict of interest by influencing the investment platforms, your broker/dealer, salespersons or other intermediary or its employees or associated persons to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your financial adviser or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.
SHAREHOLDER SERVICES PLAN	The Fund pays to the Distributor a service fee, payable monthly in arrears, at the annual rate of 0.15% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. As used throughout this prospectus, "Service Fee" shall refer to the fee for shareholder services. The Service Fee for any partial month will be appropriately prorated. The Distributor may pay investment platforms and other intermediaries all or a portion of the Service Fee.
DISTRIBUTIONS	The Fund's distribution policy is to make annual distributions to shareholders. See "Distributions." The Board reserves the right to change the distribution policy from time to time.
DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN	The Fund will operate under a dividend reinvestment plan ("DRP") administered by BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc. Pursuant to the plan, the Fund's income dividends or capital gains or other distributions (each, a "Distribution" and collectively, "Distributions"), net of any applicable U.S. withholding tax, are reinvested in the Shares of the Fund. Shareholders automatically participate in the DRP, unless and until an election is made to withdraw from the plan on behalf of such participating shareholder. A shareholder who does not wish to have Distributions automatically reinvested in Shares of the Fund may terminate participation in the Plan at any time by written instructions to that effect to the shareholder's financial intermediary or Investment platforms (if applicable). Shareholders who elect not to participate in the DRP will receive all distributions in cash paid to the shareholder of record (or, if the shares are held in street or other nominee name, then to such nominee). Such written instructions must be received 30 days prior to the record date of the Distribution or the shareholder will receive such Distribution in shares through the DRP. Under the DRP, the Fund's Distributions to shareholders are reinvested in full and fractional shares. See "Distributions - Dividend Reinvestment Plan."
ERISA PLANS AND OTHER TAX-EXEMPT ENTITIES	Investors subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), and other tax-exempt entities, including employee benefit plans, individual retirement accounts ("IRAs"), 401(k) plans and Keogh plans, may purchase Shares. Because the Fund is registered as an investment company under the 1940 Act, the underlying assets of the Fund will not be considered to be "plan assets" of the ERISA plans investing in the Fund for purposes of ERISA's fiduciary responsibility and prohibited transaction rules. Thus, none of the Fund or the Adviser will be a fiduciary within the meaning of ERISA with respect to the assets of any ERISA plan that becomes a Shareholder, solely as a result of the ERISA plan's investment in the Fund. See "ERISA Considerations."

UNLISTED CLOSED-END INTERVAL FUND STRUCTURE	The Fund has been organized as a continuously offered, non-diversified closed-end management investment company. Closed-end funds differ from open-end funds (commonly known as mutual funds) in that investors in closed-end funds do not have the right to redeem their shares on a daily basis. Unlike many closed-end funds, which typically list their shares on a securities exchange, the Fund does not currently intend to list the Shares for trading on any securities exchange, and the Fund does not expect any secondary market to develop for the Shares in the foreseeable future. Therefore, an investment in the Fund, unlike an investment in a typical closed-end fund, is not a liquid investment. To provide some liquidity to Shareholders, the Fund is structured as an "interval fund" and conducts quarterly repurchase offers for a limited amount of the Fund's Shares (expected to be 5% of the Fund's Shares outstanding). The Fund believes that an unlisted closed-end structure is most appropriate for the long-term nature of the Fund's strategy.
VALUATIONS	The Board has the ultimate responsibility for the valuation of the Fund's portfolio investments for which market quotations are not readily available, as determined in good faith pursuant to the Fund's and Adviser's joint valuation procedure ("Valuation Procedure") and consistently applied valuation process. The Board has delegated day-to-day responsibility for implementing the portfolio valuation process set forth in the Valuation Procedure to Fund management, which is comprised of officers and employees of the Adviser, and has designated the Adviser as valuation designee to perform fair value determinations, pursuant to the Valuation Procedure, for Fund portfolio securities that do not have readily available market quotations and other portfolio instruments that are not securities. In carrying out these responsibilities, the Adviser is authorized to utilize the independent third-party pricing services and independent third-party valuation services. Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value. The Fund utilizes the Fund's NAV per Fund share, as determined by the Fund in accordance with the Valuation Procedure, in determining the Fund's NAV per share. Valuations of Fund investments are disclosed in reports publicly filed with the SEC.
SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM	The Shares have no history of public trading, nor is it intended that the Shares will be listed on a public exchange at this time. No secondary market is expected to develop for the Fund's Shares. The Fund is an "interval fund," a type of fund which, to provide some liquidity to Shareholders, makes quarterly offers to repurchase between 5% and 25% of its outstanding Shares at NAV, pursuant to Rule 23c-3 under the 1940 Act, unless such offer is suspended or postponed in accordance with regulatory requirements (as discussed below). In connection with any given repurchase offer, it is expected the Fund will offer to repurchase only the minimum amount of 5% of its outstanding Shares. Quarterly repurchases occur in the months of March, June, September and December. The offer to purchase Shares is a fundamental policy that may not be changed without the vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting securities (as defined in the 1940 Act). Written notification of each quarterly repurchase offer (the "Repurchase Offer Notice") is sent to Shareholders at least 21 and not more than 42 calendar days before the repurchase request deadline (i.e., the date by which Shareholders can tender their Shares in response to a repurchase offer) (the "Repurchase Request Deadline"). The Fund expects to determine the NAV applicable to repurchases on the Repurchase Request Deadline, but it will in any case be calculated no later than the 14th calendar day (or the next business day if the 14th calendar day is not a business day) after the Repurchase Request Deadline (the "Repurchase Pricing Date"). The Fund expects to distribute payment to Shareholders between one and three business days after the Repurchase Pricing Date but it will in any case distribute such payment no later than seven calendar days after such Date. The Fund's Shares are not listed on any securities exchange, and the Fund anticipates that no secondary market will develop for its Shares. Accordingly, you may not be able to sell Shares when and/or in the amount that you desire. Thus, the Shares are appropriate only as a long-term investment. In addition, the Fund's repurchase offers may subject the Fund and Shareholders to special risks. See "Types of Investments and Related Risks - Repurchase Program Risk."

SUMMARY OF TAXATION	The Fund intends to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). As a RIC, the Fund generally will not be subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any net ordinary income or capital gains that is currently distributed as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to Shareholders, as applicable. To qualify and maintain its qualification as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Fund is required to meet certain specified source-of-income and asset diversification requirements, and is required to distribute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes of an amount at least equal to 90% of the sum of its net ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses each tax year to Shareholders, as applicable. See "Distributions" and "Tax Aspects."
FISCAL YEAR	For accounting purposes, the Fund's fiscal year is the 12-month period ending on July 31.
REPORTS TO SHAREHOLDERS	As soon as practicable after the end of each calendar year, a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the sources of the distributions paid by the Fund to Shareholders for tax purposes will be furnished to Shareholders subject to Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") reporting. In addition, the Fund will prepare and transmit to Shareholders an unaudited semi-annual and an audited annual report within 60 days after the close of the period for which the report is being made, or as otherwise required by the 1940 Act.
RISK FACTORS	There is no assurance that the Fund will meet its investment objective. The value of your investment in the Fund, as well as the amount of return you receive on your investment in the Fund, may fluctuate significantly. You may lose part or all of your investment in the Fund or your investment may not perform as well as other similar investments. Therefore, you should consider carefully the following risks before investing in the Fund. Each risk summarized below is considered a "principal risk" of investing in the Fund, regardless of the order in which it appears. Equity Securities Risk. The value of the equity securities the Fund holds may fall due to general market and economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the issuers of securities the Fund holds participate or factors relating to specific companies in which the Fund invests. These can include stock movements, purchases or sales of securities by the Fund, government policies, litigation and changes in interest rates, inflation, the financial condition of the securities' issuer or perceptions of the issuer, or economic conditions in general or specific to the issuer. Equity securities may also be particularly sensitive to general movements in the stock market, and a decline in the broader market may affect the value of the Fund's equity investments. ● Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs). The Fund may invest in stock of, warrants to purchase stock of, and other interests in SPACs or similar special purposes entities. A SPAC is a publicly traded company that raises investment capital for the purpose of acquiring or merging with an existing company. Investments in SPACs and similar entities are subject to a variety of risks beyond those associated with other equity securities. Because SPACs and similar entities do not have any operating history or ongoing business other than seeking acquisitions, the value of their securities is particularly dependent on the ability of the SPAC's management to identify a merger target and complete an acquisition. Until an acquisition or merger is completed, a SPAC generally invests its assets, less a portion retained to cover expenses, in U.S. government securities, money market securities and cash and does not typically pay dividends in respect of its common stock. As a result, it is possible that an investment in a SPAC may lose value.

Market Risk. The value of the Fund's assets will fluctuate as the markets in which the Fund invests fluctuate. The value of the Fund's investments may decline, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, simply because of economic changes or other events, such as inflation (or expectations for inflation), deflation (or expectations for deflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, market instability, debt crises and downgrades, embargoes, tariffs, sanctions and other trade barriers, regulatory events, other governmental trade or market control programs and related geopolitical events. In addition, the value of the Fund's investments may be negatively affected by the occurrence of global events such as war, military conflict, acts of terrorism, social unrest, environmental disasters, natural disasters or events, recessions, supply chain disruptions, political instability, exchange trading suspensions and closures (including exchanges of the Fund's underlying securities), infectious disease outbreaks or pandemics. Non-Diversification Risk. The Fund is classified as a "non-diversified" investment company under the 1940 Act. Therefore, the Fund may invest a relatively higher percentage of its assets in a relatively smaller number of issuers and may invest a larger proportion of its assets in a single issuer. As a result, the gains and losses on a single investment may have a greater impact on the Fund's NAV and may make the Fund more volatile than more diversified funds. Disruptive Innovation Risk. Companies that the Adviser believes are capitalizing on disruptive innovation and developing technologies to displace older technologies or create new markets may not in fact do so. Companies that initially develop a novel technology may not be able to capitalize on the technology. Companies that develop disruptive technologies may face political or legal impediments attributable to competitors, industry groups or local and national governments. These companies may also be exposed to risks applicable to sectors other than the disruptive innovation theme for which they are chosen, and the securities issued by these companies may underperform the securities of other companies that are primarily focused on a particular theme. The Fund may invest in a company that does not currently derive any revenue from disruptive innovations or technologies, and there is no assurance that a company will derive any revenue from disruptive innovations or technologies in the future. A disruptive innovation or technology may constitute a small portion of a company's overall business. As a result, the success of a disruptive innovation or technology may not affect the value of the equity securities issued by the company. Concentration Risk. The Fund's assets will be concentrated in securities of issuers having their principal business activities in groups of industries in the technology sector. To the extent that the Fund continues to be concentrated in groups of industries in the technology sector, the Fund will be subject to the risk that economic, political, business or other conditions that have a negative effect on such industry groups will negatively impact the Fund to a greater extent than if the Fund's assets were invested in a wider variety of sectors or industries. Repurchase Program Risk. Although the Fund implements a quarterly share repurchase program, there is no guarantee that an investor will be able to sell all of the Shares that the investor desires to sell. The Fund should therefore be considered to offer limited liquidity. Communications Sector Risk. The Fund will be more affected by the performance of the communications sector than a fund with less exposure to such sector. Communication companies are particularly vulnerable to the potential obsolescence of products and services due to technological advancement and the innovation of competitors. Companies in the communications sector may also be affected by other competitive pressures, such as pricing competition, as well as research and development costs, substantial capital requirements and government regulation. Additionally, fluctuating domestic and international demand, shifting demographics and often unpredictable changes in consumer tastes can drastically affect a communication company's profitability. While all companies may be susceptible to network security breaches, certain companies in the communications sector may be particular targets of hacking and potential theft of proprietary or consumer information or disruptions in service, which could have a material adverse effect on their businesses.

Consumer Discretionary Risk. The consumer discretionary sector may be affected by changes in domestic and international economies, exchange and interest rates, competition, consumers' disposable income and consumer preferences, social trends and marketing campaigns. Cryptocurrency Risk. Cryptocurrencies (also referred to as "virtual currencies" and "digital currencies") are digital assets designed to act as a medium of exchange. Cryptocurrency is an emerging asset class with a limited history. There are thousands of cryptocurrencies, the most well-known of which is bitcoin. The Fund may have exposure to cryptocurrencies indirectly through an investment in GBTC and/or Canadian ETPs that have exposure to cryptocurrencies. Although the Fund does not directly invest in bitcoin or Ether, the Fund's indirect investments in these digital assets are exposed to risks associated with the price of bitcoin or Ether, which is subject to numerous factors and risks. Investments in or exposure to cryptocurrencies, such as bitcoin or Ether are subject to substantial risks, including significant price volatility and fraud and manipulation, which are generally more pronounced in the crypto asset market. The Fund may have exposure to other cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin and Ether, indirectly through an investment in the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust ("GBTC"), a privately offered, open-end investment vehicle that invests in bitcoin or through investments in other investment companies, including other ETFs. Cryptocurrency generally operates without central authority (such as a bank) and is not backed by any government, corporation, or other entity. Cryptocurrency is not generally accepted as legal tender. Regulation of cryptocurrency is still developing. Federal, state and/or foreign governments may restrict the development, use, or exchange of cryptocurrency. As digital assets have grown in both popularity and market size, the U.S. Congress and a number of U.S. federal and state agencies have been examining the operations of digital asset networks, digital asset users and the digital asset trading market. Many of these state and federal agencies have brought enforcement actions and issued advisories and rules relating to digital asset markets. Ongoing and future regulatory actions with respect to digital assets generally or any single digital asset in particular may alter, perhaps to a materially adverse extent, the nature of an investment in the cryptocurrency and/or the ability of the Fund to continue to operate. The market for bitcoin and Ether depends on, among other things: the supply and demand for bitcoin or Ether (and their respective futures); the adoption of bitcoin or Ether for commercial uses; the anticipated increase of investments in bitcoin or Ether-related investment products by retail and institutional investors; speculative interest in spot cryptocurrencies, cryptocurrency futures and cryptocurrency-related investment products; regulatory or other restrictions on investors' ability to invest in cryptocurrency futures; and the potential ability to hedge against the price of cryptocurrencies with their respective futures (and vice versa). The market prices of bitcoin and Ether, for example, have been subject to extreme fluctuations. The price of bitcoin or Ether could fall sharply (potentially to zero) for various reasons, including, but not limited to, regulatory changes, issues impacting the bitcoin network or the Ethereum and Ethereum Class networks, events involving entities that facilitate transactions in bitcoin or Ether, or changes in user preferences in favor of alternative cryptocurrencies. Furthermore, events that impact one cryptocurrency may lead to a decline in the value of other cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin and Ether. Cryptocurrency exchanges and other trading venues on which cryptocurrencies trade are relatively new and, in most cases, largely unregulated. Therefore, cryptocurrency exchanges may be more exposed to fraud and failure than established, regulated exchanges for securities, derivatives and other currencies. However, the digital asset trading platforms on which cryptocurrencies are traded, and which may serve as a pricing source that is used for the purposes of valuing the Fund's investments, are or may become subject to enforcement actions by regulatory authorities, and such enforcement actions may have a material adverse impact on the Fund, its investments, and its ability to implement its investment strategies. Cryptocurrency exchanges may not have the same features as traditional exchanges to enhance the stability of trading on the exchange, such as measures designed to prevent sudden price swings such as "flash crashes." As a result, the prices of cryptocurrencies on exchanges may be subject to more volatility than traditional assets traded on regulated exchanges. Cryptocurrency exchanges are also subject to cyber security risks. Cryptocurrency exchanges have experienced cyber security breaches in the past and may be breached in the future, which could result in the theft and/or loss of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and impact the value of bitcoin. Furthermore, cyber security events, legal or regulatory actions, fraud, and technical glitches may cause a cryptocurrency exchange to shut down temporarily or permanently, which may also affect the value of bitcoin or Ether.

The Fund's investments in GBTC, or ETFs with exposure to bitcoin, Ether, or other cryptocurrencies (collectively, "cryptocurrency investment vehicles"), expose the Fund to all of the risks related to cryptocurrencies described above and also expose the Fund to risks related to cryptocurrency investment vehicles directly. Shares of cryptocurrency investment vehicles may trade at a significant premium or discount to NAV. To the extent a cryptocurrency investment vehicle trades at a discount to NAV, the value of the Fund's investment in such cryptocurrency investment vehicle would typically decrease. Similar to fiat currencies (i.e., a currency that is backed by a central bank or a national, supra-national or quasi-national organization), cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin, are susceptible to theft, loss and destruction. If a cryptocurrency investment vehicle experiences theft, loss, or destruction of its bitcoin or Ether holdings, the Fund's investments in such cryptocurrency investment vehicle could be harmed. Furthermore, because there is no guarantee that an active trading market for a cryptocurrency investment vehicle will exist at any time, the Fund's investments in such vehicle may also be subject to liquidity risk, which can impair the value of the Fund's investments in the cryptocurrency investment vehicle. Investors may experience losses if the value of the Fund's investments in cryptocurrency investment vehicles declines. Cryptocurrency Tax Risk. Many significant aspects of the U.S. federal income tax treatment of investments in bitcoin and Ether are uncertain and an investment in bitcoin, Ether, or other cryptocurrency may produce income that is not treated as qualifying income for purposes of the income test applicable to regulated investment companies, such as the Fund. GBTC is expected to be treated as a grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and therefore an investment by the Fund in GBTC will generally be treated as a direct investment in bitcoin for such purposes. See "Taxes" in the Fund's Statement of Additional Information ("SAI") for more information. Currency Risk. Changes in currency exchange rates will affect the value of non-U.S. dollar denominated securities, the value of dividends and interest earned from such securities, gains and losses realized on the sale of such securities, and derivative transactions tied to such securities. A strong U.S. dollar relative to these other currencies will adversely affect the value of the Fund's portfolio. Cyber Security Risk. As the use of Internet technology has become more prevalent in the course of business, funds have become more susceptible to potential operational risks through breaches in cyber security. A breach in cyber security refers to both intentional and unintentional events that may cause the Fund to lose proprietary information, suffer data corruption or lose operational capacity. Such events could cause the Fund to incur regulatory penalties, reputational damage, additional compliance costs associated with corrective measures and/or financial loss. Cyber security breaches may involve unauthorized access to the Fund's digital information systems through "hacking" or malicious software coding, but may also result from outside attacks such as denial-of-service attacks through efforts to make network services unavailable to intended users. In addition, cyber security breaches of the Fund's third-party service providers, such as its administrator, transfer agent or custodian, or issuers in which the Fund invests, can also subject the Fund to many of the same risks associated with direct cyber security breaches. While the Fund has established business continuity plans and risk management systems designed to reduce the risks associated with cyber security, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems. Additionally, there is no guarantee that such efforts will succeed, especially because the Fund does not directly control the cyber security systems of issuers or third-party service providers.

Depositary Receipts Risk. ADRs and GDRs are securities typically issued by a bank or trust company that evidence ownership of underlying securities issued by a foreign corporation and entitle the holder to all dividends and capital gains that are paid out on the underlying foreign securities. The issuers of certain depositary receipts are under no obligation to distribute shareholder communications to the holders of such receipts, or to pass through to them any voting rights with respect to the deposited securities. Investment in depositary receipts may be less liquid than the underlying shares in their primary trading market. Depositary receipts may not necessarily be denominated in the same currency as the underlying securities into which they may be converted. In addition, the issuers of the stock underlying unsponsored depositary receipts are not obligated to disclose material information in the United States. The issuers of depositary receipts may discontinue issuing new depositary receipts and withdraw existing depositary receipts at any time, which may result in costs and delays in the distribution of the underlying assets to the Fund and may negatively impact the Fund's performance. Emerging Market Securities Risk. Investment in securities of emerging market issuers may present risks that are greater than or different from those associated with securities of developed market issuers due to less developed and liquid markets and such factors as increased economic, political, regulatory, or other uncertainties. Certain emerging market countries may be subject to less stringent requirements regarding accounting, auditing, financial reporting and record keeping and therefore, material information related to an investment may not be available or reliable. In addition, the Fund is limited in its ability to exercise its legal rights or enforce a counterparty's legal obligations in certain jurisdictions outside of the United States, in particular, in emerging markets countries. Financial Technology Risk. Companies that are developing financial technologies that seek to disrupt or displace established financial institutions generally face competition from much larger and more established firms. FinTech Innovation Companies may not be able to capitalize on their disruptive technologies if they face political and/or legal impediments attributable to competitors, industry groups or local and national governments. Laws generally vary by country, creating some challenges to achieving scale. A FinTech Innovation Company may not currently derive any revenue, and there is no assurance that such company will derive any revenue from innovative technologies in the future. Additionally, Fintech Innovation Companies may be adversely impacted by potential rapid product obsolescence, cybersecurity attacks, increased regulatory oversight and disruptions in the technology they depend on. Foreign Securities Risk. The Fund's investments in foreign securities can be riskier than U.S. securities investments. Investments in the securities of foreign issuers (including investments in ADRs and GDRs) are subject to the risks associated with investing in those foreign markets, such as heightened risks of inflation or nationalization. The prices of foreign securities and the prices of U.S. securities have, at times, moved in opposite directions. In addition, securities of foreign issuers may lose value due to political, economic and geographic events affecting a foreign issuer or market. During periods of social, political or economic instability in a country or region, the value of a foreign security traded on U.S. exchanges could be affected by, among other things, increasing price volatility, illiquidity, or the closure of the primary market on which the security (or the security underlying the ADR or GDR) is traded. You may lose money due to political, economic and geographic events affecting a foreign issuer or market, including wars, military conflicts and sanctions. The Fund normally will not hedge any foreign currency exposure. Future Expected Genomic Business Risk. The Adviser may invest some of the Fund's assets in Genomics Revolution Companies that do not currently derive a substantial portion of their current revenues from genomic-focused businesses and there is no assurance that any company will do so in the future, which may adversely affect the ability of the Fund to achieve its investment objective.

Health Care Sector Risk. The health care sector may be affected by government regulations and government health care programs, restrictions on government reimbursement for medical expenses, increases or decreases in the cost of medical products and services and product liability claims, among other factors. Many health care companies are: (i) heavily dependent on patent protection and intellectual property rights and the expiration of a patent may adversely affect their profitability; (ii) subject to extensive litigation based on product liability and similar claims; and (iii) subject to competitive forces that may make it difficult to raise prices and, in fact, may result in price discounting. Many health care products and services may be subject to regulatory approvals. The process of obtaining such approvals may be long and costly, and delays or failure to receive such approvals may negatively impact the business of such companies. Additional or more stringent laws and regulations enacted in the future could have a material adverse effect on such companies in the health care sector. In addition, issuers in the health care sector include issuers having their principal activities in the biotechnology industry, medical laboratories and research, drug laboratories and research and drug manufacturers, which have the additional risks described below. ● Biotechnology Company Risk. A biotechnology company's valuation can often be based largely on the potential or actual performance of a limited number of products and can accordingly be greatly affected if one of its products proves, among other things, unsafe, ineffective or unprofitable. Biotechnology companies are subject to regulation by, and the restrictions of, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, state and local governments, and foreign regulatory authorities. ● Pharmaceutical Company Risk. Companies in the pharmaceutical industry can be significantly affected by, among other things, government approval of products and services, government regulation and reimbursement rates, product liability claims, patent expirations and protection and intense competition. Information Technology Sector Risk. The information technology sector includes companies engaged in internet software and services, technology hardware and storage peripherals, electronic equipment instruments and components, and semiconductors and semiconductor equipment. Information technology companies face intense competition, both domestically and internationally, which may have an adverse effect on profit margins. Information technology companies may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel. The products of information technology companies may face rapid product obsolescence due to technological developments and frequent new product introduction, unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel. Failure to introduce new products, develop and maintain a loyal customer base, or achieve general market acceptance for their products could have a material adverse effect on a company's business. Companies in the information technology sector are heavily dependent on intellectual property and the loss of patent, copyright and trademark protections may adversely affect the profitability of these companies. Internet Company Risk. Many Internet-related companies have incurred large losses since their inception and may continue to incur large losses in the hope of capturing market share and generating future revenues. Accordingly, many such companies expect to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future, and may never be profitable. The markets in which many Internet companies compete face rapidly evolving industry standards, frequent new service and product announcements, introductions and enhancements, and changing customer demands. The failure of an Internet company to adapt to such changes could have a material adverse effect on the company's business. Additionally, the widespread adoption of new Internet, networking, telecommunications technologies, or other technological changes could require substantial expenditures by an Internet company to modify or adapt its services or infrastructure, which could have a material adverse effect on an Internet company's business. ● Semiconductor Company Risk. Competitive pressures may have a significant effect on the financial condition of semiconductor companies and, as product cycles shorten and manufacturing capacity increases, these companies may become increasingly subject to aggressive pricing, which hampers profitability. Reduced demand for end-user products, under-utilization of manufacturing capacity, and other factors could adversely impact the operating results of companies in the semiconductor sector. Semiconductor companies typically face high capital costs and may be heavily dependent on intellectual property rights. The semiconductor sector is highly cyclical, which may cause the operating results of many semiconductor companies to vary significantly. The stock prices of companies in the semiconductor sector have been and likely will continue to be extremely volatile.

● Software Industry Risk. The software industry can be significantly affected by intense competition, aggressive pricing, technological innovations, and product obsolescence. Companies in the software industry are subject to significant competitive pressures, such as aggressive pricing, new market entrants, competition for market share, short product cycles due to an accelerated rate of technological developments and the potential for limited earnings and/or falling profit margins. These companies also face the risks that new services, equipment or technologies will not be accepted by consumers and businesses or will become rapidly obsolete. These factors can affect the profitability of these companies and, as a result, the value of their securities. Also, patent protection is integral to the success of many companies in this industry, and profitability can be affected materially by, among other things, the cost of obtaining (or failing to obtain) patent approvals, the cost of litigating patent infringement and the loss of patent protection for products (which significantly increases pricing pressures and can materially reduce profitability with respect to such products). In addition, many software companies have limited operating histories. Prices of these companies' securities historically have been more volatile than other securities, especially over the short term. Issuer Risk. Because the Fund may invest in approximately 40 to 50 issuers, it is subject to the risk that the value of the Fund's portfolio may decline due to a decline in value of the equity securities of particular issuers. The value of an issuer's equity securities may decline for reasons directly related to the issuer, such as management performance and reduced demand for the issuer's goods or services. Large-Capitalization Companies Risk. Large-capitalization companies are generally less volatile than companies with smaller market capitalizations. In exchange for this potentially lower risk, the value of large-capitalization companies may not rise as much as that of companies with smaller market capitalizations. Leverage Risk. The use of leverage can create risks. Leverage can increase market exposure, increase volatility in the Fund, magnify investment risks, and cause losses to be realized more quickly. The use of leverage may cause the Fund to liquidate portfolio positions to satisfy its obligations or to meet asset segregation requirements when it may not be advantageous to do so. Management Risk. The Fund is subject to management risk. The ability of the Adviser to successfully implement the Fund's investment strategies will significantly influence the Fund's performance. The success of the Fund will depend in part upon the skill and expertise of certain key personnel of the Adviser, and there can be no assurance that any such personnel will continue to be associated with the Fund. Micro-Capitalization Companies Risk. Micro-capitalization companies are subject to substantially greater risks of loss and price fluctuations because their earnings and revenues tend to be less predictable (and some companies may be experiencing significant losses). Their share prices tend to be more volatile and their markets less liquid than companies with larger market capitalizations. The shares of micro-capitalization companies tend to trade less frequently than those of larger, more established companies, which can adversely affect the pricing of these securities and the future ability to sell these securities. New Fund Risk. There can be no assurance that the Fund will grow to or maintain an economically viable size, in which case the Board may determine to liquidate the Fund if it determines that liquidation is in the best interest of shareholders. Liquidation of the Fund can be initiated without shareholder approval. As a result, the timing of the Fund's liquidation may not be favorable to a shareholder.

Next Generation Internet Companies Risk. The risks described below apply, in particular, to the Fund's investment in Next Generation Internet Companies. ● Internet Information Provider Company Risk. Internet information provider companies provide Internet navigation services and reference guide information and publish, provide or present proprietary advertising and/or third party content. Such companies often derive a large portion of their revenues from advertising, and a reduction in spending by or loss of advertisers could seriously harm their business. This business is rapidly evolving and intensely competitive, and is subject to changing technologies, shifting user needs, and frequent introductions of new products and services. The research and development of new, technologically advanced products is a complex and uncertain process requiring high levels of innovation and investment, as well as the accurate anticipation of technology, market trends and consumer needs. The number of people who access the Internet is increasing dramatically and a failure to attract and retain a substantial number of such users to a company's products and services or to develop products and technologies that are more compatible with alternative devices, could adversely affect operating results. Concerns regarding a company's products, services or processes that may compromise the privacy of users or other privacy related matters, even if unfounded, could damage a company's reputation and adversely affect operating results. ● Catalog and Mail Order House Company Risk. Catalog and mail order house companies may be exposed to significant inventory risks that may adversely affect operating results due to, among other factors: seasonality, new product launches, rapid changes in product cycles and pricing, defective merchandise, changes in consumer demand and consumer spending patterns, or changes in consumer tastes with respect to products. Demand for products can change significantly between the time inventory or components are ordered and the date of sale. The acquisition of certain types of inventory or components may require significant lead-time and prepayment and they may not be returnable. Failure to adequately predict customer demand or otherwise optimize and operate distribution centers could result in excess or insufficient inventory or distribution capacity, result in increased costs, impairment charges, or both. The business of catalog and mail order house companies can be highly seasonal and failure to stock or restock popular products in sufficient amounts during high demand periods could significantly affect revenue and future growth. Increased website traffic during peak periods could cause system interruptions which may reduce the volume of goods sold and the attractiveness of a company's products and services. Small- and Medium-Capitalization Companies Risk. Small- and medium-capitalization companies may be more volatile and more likely than large-capitalization companies to have narrower product lines, fewer financial resources, less management depth and experience and less competitive strength. Returns on investments in securities of small- and medium-capitalization companies could trail the returns on investments in securities of large-capitalization companies. Tax Risk. To qualify and remain eligible for the special tax treatment accorded to RICs and their shareholders under the Code, the Fund must meet certain source-of-income, asset diversification and annual distribution requirements, and failure to do so could result in the loss of RIC status. Unlisted Shares. Unlike many closed-end funds, the Fund's Shares will not be listed on any securities exchange. Valuation Risk. Because the Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in non-publicly traded securities, there will be uncertainty regarding the value of the Fund's investments, which could adversely affect the determination of the Fund's NAV. Accordingly, the Fund should be considered a speculative investment that entails substantial risks, and a prospective investor should invest in the Fund only if they can sustain a complete loss of their investment.

SUMMARY OF FEES AND EXPENSES

The following table illustrates the aggregate fees and expenses that the Fund expects to incur and that Shareholders can expect to bear directly or indirectly. The expenses shown in the table under "Annual Fund Expenses" are estimated based on projected amounts for the current fiscal year.

SHAREHOLDER TRANSACTION EXPENSES
Sales load (as a percentage of offering price)			None
Dividend Reinvestment Fees(1)			None

ANNUAL FUND EXPENSES (as a percentage of projected average net assets attributable to Shares)(1)(2)
Management fee			2.75	%
Interest payments on borrowed funds(3)			0.00	%
Other expenses(4)			1.96	%
Service Fee			0.15	%
Other operating expenses			1.81	%
Total annual fund expenses			4.71	%
Expense reimbursement(5)			1.81	%
Total annual fund expenses after expense reimbursement			2.90	%

(1)	The expenses of administering the DRP are included in "Other operating expenses." See "Distributions - Dividend Reinvestment Plan."
(2)	Assumes the Fund raises approximately $49 million in net proceeds in the year ending July 31, 2025 resulting in estimated average net assets of approximately $87 million. "Annual Fund Expenses" do not include organizational and offering costs as these costs have been incurred and paid by the Adviser. The Adviser incurred the Fund's organizational and initial offering costs associated with the Fund's continuous offering of Shares of $885,178. Pursuant to an expense reimbursement agreement between the Fund and the Adviser, the Fund will be obligated to reimburse the Adviser for any such payments within three years of the Adviser incurring such expenses subject to the limitation that a reimbursement (an "Adviser Reimbursement") will be made only if and to the extent that: (i) the Fund's net asset exceeds $125,000,000; and (ii) the Adviser Reimbursement does not cause the Fund's net assets to fall below $125,000,000.
(3)	Interest expenses represent estimated interest related costs the Fund expects to incur in connection with the use of its credit facility. See "Summary of Terms - Leverage."
(4)	"Other Expenses" are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year.
(5)	The Adviser and the Fund have entered into the Expense Limitation Agreement under which the Adviser has agreed contractually to waive its Management Fee and/or reimburse the Fund's operating expenses on a monthly basis to the extent that the Fund's total annualized fund operating expenses (excluding expenses directly related to the costs of making investments; taxes; brokerage costs; acquired fund fees and expenses; expenses of litigation, indemnification and shareholder meetings; organizational expenses; offering costs; and extraordinary expenses) exceed 2.90% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement, the Adviser may receive reimbursement of any fees waived and/or excess expense payments paid by it pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement within three years of such waiver and/or expense payment, if such reimbursement can be achieved within the Expense Limit or the expense limit that was in effect at the time of the waiver and/or expense payment, whichever is lower, and such reimbursement has been approved by the Trustees of the Fund. The Expense Limitation Agreement will remain in effect until the later of either (i) November 28, 2025 or (ii) the Fund's average net assets over a 12-month period exceed $250,000,000 unless and until the Board approves its earlier termination.

Example:

The following example demonstrates the projected dollar amount of total expenses that would be incurred over various periods with respect to a hypothetical investment in Shares. In calculating the following expense amounts, the Fund has assumed its direct and indirect annual operating expenses and leverage would remain at the percentage levels set forth in the table above (except that the example incorporates the expense reimbursement arrangement for only the first year).

An investor would pay the following expenses on a $1,000 investment, assuming a 5.0% annual return:

		1 Year			3 Years			5 Years			10 Years
You would pay the following expenses on a $1,000 investment, assuming a 5% annual return:		$30			$91			$194			$452

The example and the expenses in the tables above should not be considered a representation of the Fund's future expenses, and actual expenses may be greater or less than those shown. While the example assumes a 5.0% annual return, as required by the SEC, the Fund's performance will vary and may result in a return greater or less than 5.0%.

THE FUND

The Fund is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that is registered under the 1940 Act. The Fund is structured as an "interval fund" and continuously offers its Shares. The Fund was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on January 11, 2022. The principal office of the Fund is located at 200 Central Avenue, Suite 220, St. Petersburg, Florida 33701 and its telephone number is 727-810-8160.

The Fund's investment objective is to seek long-term growth of capital.

The Fund invests primarily in domestic and foreign equity securities of companies that are relevant to the Fund's investment theme of disruptive innovation. The Adviser defines "disruptive innovation" as the introduction of a technologically enabled new product or service that potentially changes the way the world works. Under normal circumstances, substantially all of the Fund's assets will be invested in equity securities, including common stocks, partnership interests, business trust shares, other equity investments or ownership interests in business enterprises and Private Funds, and preferred stock or debt obligations that are convertible into equity securities. The Fund's investments will include micro-, small-, medium- and large-capitalization companies. The Fund's investments in foreign equity securities will be in both developed and emerging markets. The Fund may invest in foreign securities (including investments in American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") and Global Depositary Receipts ("GDRs")) and securities listed on local foreign exchanges.

For a further discussion of the Fund's principal investment strategies, see "Investment Objective, Opportunities and Strategies." There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

The Fund's investment adviser is ARK. ARK oversees the management of the Fund's activities and is responsible for making investment decisions for the Fund's portfolio. See "Investment Adviser." Responsibility for monitoring and overseeing the Fund's investment program, management and operation is vested in the individuals who serve on the Board.

INVESTMENT ADVISER

ARK Investment Management LLC, located at 200 Central Avenue, Suite 220, St. Petersburg, Florida 33701, which was formed in 2013 and registered with the SEC as an investment adviser in 2014, serves as the Fund's investment adviser under an Investment Advisory Agreement ("Advisory Agreement"). Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser serves as the adviser to the Fund, subject to the general oversight of the Board, and is responsible for the day-to-day investment management of the Fund. The Advisory Agreement was approved in accordance with, and on the basis of a review by the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, as required by Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder. In approving the Advisory Agreement, the Board considered, among other factors, (i) the nature, quality and extent of the services to be provided by ARK under the Advisory Agreement; (ii) the investment performance of ARK and related accounts; (iii) comparative information with respect to advisory fees and other expenses paid by other comparable investment companies; and (iv) information about the services to be performed by ARK and the personnel of ARK that will provide such services under the Advisory Agreement. A discussion of the basis of the Board's approval of the Advisory Agreement can be found in the Fund's Annual Report.

Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, and in consideration of the advisory services provided by the Adviser to the Fund, the Adviser is entitled to a Management Fee, which is calculated and payable monthly in arrears at the annual rate of 2.75% of the average daily value of the Fund's Net Assets. "Net Assets" means the total assets of the Fund minus the Fund's liabilities. In addition to the Management Fee, the Fund bears other fees and expenses, which may vary and will affect the total expense ratio of the Fund, such as taxes and governmental fees, brokerage fees, commissions and other transaction expenses, certain foreign custodial fees and expenses, costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses, and extraordinary expenses (such as litigation and indemnification expenses). Those expenses are described below in "Fund Expenses."

Organization and Offering Costs

The Adviser has incurred the Fund's organizational costs and the initial offering costs associated with the Fund's continuous offering of Shares, including, but not limited to, legal expenses, printing costs and expenses relating to the Fund's initial seed audit, pursuant to the Expense Reimbursement Agreement between the Fund and the Adviser. Under that agreement, the Fund is obligated to reimburse the Adviser ("Adviser Recoupment") for any such payments within three years of the Adviser incurring those expenses, subject to the limitation that an Adviser Recoupment will be made only if and to the extent that: (i) the Fund's net assets exceed $125,000,000; and (ii) the Adviser Recoupment does not cause the Fund's net assets to fall below $125,000,000.

Expense Limitation Agreement

The Adviser and the Fund have entered into the Expense Limitation Agreement under which the Adviser has agreed contractually to waive its Management Fee and/or reimburse the Fund's operating expenses on a monthly basis to the extent that the Fund's total annualized fund operating expenses (excluding expenses directly related to the costs of making investments; taxes; brokerage costs; acquired fund fees and expenses; expenses of litigation, indemnification and shareholder meetings; organizational expenses; offering costs; and extraordinary expenses) exceed 2.90% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement, the Adviser may receive reimbursement of any fees waived or excess expense payments paid by it pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement within three years of such waiver and/or payment, if such reimbursement can be achieved within the Expense Limit or the expense limit that was in effect at the time of the waiver and/or payment, whichever is lower, and such reimbursement has been approved by the Trustees of the Fund. The Expense Limitation Agreement will remain in effect until the later of either (i) November 28, 2025 or (ii) the Fund's average net assets over a 12-month period exceed $250,000,000 unless and until the Board approves its earlier termination.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The Fund intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of its securities pursuant to this prospectus to acquire investments in accordance with the Fund's investment objective and strategies described in this prospectus, marketing to acquire new investors and other general corporate purposes. The Fund is continuously identifying, reviewing and, to the extent consistent with the Fund's investment objective, funding new investments. The Fund will also use a portion of any such proceeds to pay operating expenses, and other expenses such as due diligence expenses relating to potential new investments. Under normal circumstances, the Fund expects to invest 20% - 90% of its assets in securities of private companies and the remainder of its assets in publicly traded securities.

The Fund currently anticipates being able to invest proceeds from the sale of its Shares promptly after the receipt of such proceeds, subject to the availability of appropriate investment opportunities consistent with the Fund's investment objective and market conditions. The marketplace for private company and venture capital investing has become increasingly competitive, and the Fund may encounter delays in locating suitable investment opportunities. Such delays may impact Shareholders' investment returns. Until appropriate private company and venture capital investments can be found, the Fund intends to invest its assets in publicly traded securities, which may have returns that are lower than returns from private company and venture capital investments.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, OPPORTUNITIES AND STRATEGIES

Investment Objective

The Fund's investment objective is to seek long-term capital growth. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

Investment Opportunities and Strategies

The Fund will invest, under normal circumstances, primarily in domestic and foreign equity securities of companies that are relevant to the Fund's investment theme of disruptive innovation. The Adviser defines "disruptive innovation" as the introduction of a technologically enabled new product or service that potentially changes the way the world works. The Adviser believes that companies relevant to this theme are those that rely on or benefit from the development of new products or services, technological improvements and advancements in scientific research relating to the areas of genomics^* ("Genomic Revolution Companies"); innovation in automation and manufacturing ("Automation Transformation Companies"), transportation, energy ("Energy Transformation Companies"), artificial intelligence ("Artificial Intelligence Companies") and materials; the increased use of shared technology, infrastructure and services ("Next Generation Internet Companies"); and technologies that make financial services more efficient ("FinTech Innovation Companies").

In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the Fund may invest, without limit, in privately placed or restricted securities (including in Rule 144A securities, which are privately placed securities purchased by qualified institutional buyers), illiquid securities and securities in which no secondary market is readily available, including those of private companies. Issuers of these securities may not have a class of securities registered, and may not be subject to periodic reporting, pursuant to the Exchange Act. The Fund may invest in such securities without limitation. The Fund currently expects to invest the remainder of its assets in publicly traded securities.

In selecting companies that the Adviser believes are relevant to a particular investment theme, the Adviser seeks to identify, using its own internal research and analysis, companies capitalizing on disruptive innovation or that are enabling the further development of a theme in the markets in which they operate. The Adviser's internal research and analysis leverages insights from diverse sources, including external research, to develop and refine its investment themes and identify and take advantage of trends that have ramifications for individual companies or entire industries. The types of companies that the Adviser believes are Genomic Revolution Companies, Automation Transformation Companies, Energy Transformation Companies, Artificial Intelligence Companies, Next Generation Internet Companies or FinTech Innovation Companies are described below:

●

Genomic Revolution Companies. Companies that the Adviser believes are substantially focused on and are expected to substantially benefit from extending and enhancing the quality of human and other life by incorporating technological and scientific developments, improvements and advancements in genomics into their business, such as by offering new products or services that rely on genomic sequencing**, analysis, synthesis or instrumentation. These companies may include ones across multiple sectors, such as healthcare, information technology, materials, energy and consumer discretionary. These companies may also develop, produce, manufacture or significantly rely on or enable bionic devices, bio-inspired computing, bioinformatics,*** molecular medicine and agricultural biotechnology.

●

Automation Transformation Companies. Companies that the Adviser believes are focused on humans capitalizing on the productivity of machines, such as through the automation of functions, processes or activities previously performed by human labor, such as transportation through an emphasis on mobility as a service, or the use of robotics to perform other functions, activities or processes.

●

Energy Transformation Companies. Companies that the Adviser believes seek to capitalize on innovations or evolutions in: (i) ways that energy is stored or used; (ii) the discovery, collection and/or implementation of new sources of energy, including unconventional sources of oil or natural gas; and/or (iii) the production or development of new materials for use in commercial applications of energy production, use or storage.

●

Artificial Intelligence Companies. Companies that the Adviser considers to be Artificial Intelligence ("AI") Companies include companies that: (i) design, create, integrate, or deliver robotics, autonomous technology, and/or AI in the form of products, software, or systems; (ii) develop the building block components for robotics, autonomous technology, or AI, such as advanced machinery, semiconductors and databases used for machine learning; (iii) provides their own value-added services on top of such building block components, but are not core to the companies' product or service offering; and/or (iv) develop computer systems that are able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and translation between languages.

●

Next Generation Internet Companies. Companies that the Adviser believes are focused on and expected to benefit from shifting the bases of technology infrastructure from hardware and software to the cloud, enabling mobile and local services, such as companies that rely on or benefit from the increased use of shared technology, infrastructure and services. These companies may include mail order houses which generate the entirety of their business through websites and which offer internet-based products and services, such as streaming media or cloud storage in addition to traditional physical goods. These companies may also include ones that develop, use or rely on innovative payment methodologies, big data, the "internet of things,****" machine learning, and social distribution and media.

*	The Adviser defines "genomics" as the study of genes and their functions, and related techniques (e.g., genomic sequencing). See Genomics and World Health: Report of the Advisory Committee on Health Research, Geneva, WHO (2002).
**	The Adviser uses the term "genomic sequencing" to refer to the techniques that allows researchers to read and decipher the genetic information found in the DNA (i.e., the exact sequence of bases A, C, G and T in a DNA molecule), including the DNA of bacteria, plants, animals and human beings.
***	The Adviser defines "bioinformatics" as the science of collecting and analyzing complex biological data such as genetic codes.
****	The Adviser defines the "internet of things" as a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, or physical objects that are provided unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction.

●

FinTech Innovation Companies. Companies that the Adviser believes are focused on and expected to benefit from the shifting of the financial sector and economic transactions to technology infrastructure platforms, and technological intermediaries. FinTech Innovation Companies may also develop, use or rely on innovative payment platforms and methodologies, point of sale providers, e-commerce, transactional innovations, business analytics, fraud reduction, frictionless funding platforms, peer-to-peer lending, blockchain technologies,***** intermediary exchanges, asset allocation technology, cryptocurrency,****** mobile payments, and risk pricing and pooling aggregators. The Fund may have exposure to bitcoin indirectly through an investment in GBTC or Canadian exchange-traded products. The Fund may also have exposure to other cryptocurrencies indirectly through an investment in a grantor trust or an investment vehicle to the extent permitted by, and in accordance with, any future law, regulation, guidance, or exemptive relief provided by the SEC or its staff or other regulatory agency or body having jurisdiction. The Fund's exposure to cryptocurrency may change over time and, accordingly, such exposure may not always be represented in the Fund's portfolio.

The Adviser will select investments for the Fund that represent its highest-conviction investment ideas within the theme of disruptive innovation, as described above, in constructing the Fund's portfolio. A disruptive innovation or technology may constitute a small portion of a company's overall business. As a result, the success of a disruptive innovation or technology may not materially affect the value of the equity securities issued by the company. The Adviser's process for identifying Genomic Revolution Companies, Automation Transformation Companies, Energy Transformation Companies, Artificial Intelligence Companies, Next Generation Internet Companies and FinTech Innovation Companies uses both "top down" (thematic research sizing the potential total available market, and seeking to surface the prime beneficiaries) and "bottom up" (valuation, fundamental and quantitative measures) approaches. In both the Adviser's "top down" and "bottom up" approaches, the Adviser evaluates environmental, social, and governance ("ESG") considerations. In its "top down" approach, the Adviser uses the framework of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals to integrate ESG considerations into its research and investment process. The Adviser, however, does not use ESG considerations to limit, restrict or otherwise exclude companies or sectors from the Fund's investment universe. In its "bottom up" approach, the Adviser makes its investment decisions primarily based on its analysis of the potential of individual companies, while integrating ESG considerations into that process. ESG considerations are not the only factors considered by the Adviser and as a result, the companies in which the Fund invests may not be companies with favorable ESG characteristics or high ESG ratings. The Adviser's highest-conviction investment ideas are those that it believes present the best risk-reward opportunities.

Under normal circumstances, substantially all of the Fund's assets will be invested in equity securities, including common stocks, partnership interests, business trust shares, other equity investments or ownership interests in business enterprises and Private Funds, and preferred stock or debt obligations that are convertible into equity securities. The Fund will invest no more than 15% of its net assets in Private Funds. In addition, the Fund will invest no more than 15% of its net assets in any combination of GBTC and Canadian exchange-traded products with exposure to bitcoin. The Fund's investments will include early- to late-stage private companies and micro-, small-, medium- and large-capitalization public companies. The Fund's investments in foreign equity securities will be in both developed and emerging markets. The Fund may invest in foreign securities (including investments in American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") and Global Depositary Receipts ("GDRs")) and securities listed on local foreign exchanges. The Fund may pursue its investment objective by investing up to 25% of its total assets in wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Fund organized under the laws of the United States ("Taxable Subsidiary") or Cayman Islands ("Cayman Subsidiary" and together with the Taxable Subsidiary, the "Subsidiaries"). The Subsidiaries would hold certain investments or interests in pass-through entities (such as GBTC and certain Private Funds) and allow the Fund to satisfy the RIC tax requirements.

The Fund will be concentrated (i.e., more than 25% of the value of the Fund's assets) in securities of issuers having their principal business activities in groups of industries in the technology sector.

The Fund is classified as a "non-diversified" investment company under the 1940 Act, which means that it may invest a high percentage of its assets in a limited number of issuers and may invest a larger proportion of its assets in a single issuer.

*****

The term "blockchain" refers to a peer-to-peer distributed ledger that is secured using cryptography. A distributed ledger is a shared electronic database where information is recorded and stored across multiple computers; a blockchain is one type of distributed ledger. A blockchain may be open and permissionless or private and permissioned. The Bitcoin and Ethereum blockchains are examples of open, public, permissionless blockchains. Blockchain derives its name from the way it stores transaction data in "blocks" that are linked together to form a chain. As the number of transactions grows, so does the blockchain. Blocks record and confirm the time and sequence of transactions, which are then logged into the blockchain network, which is, with respect to public blockchains, governed by rules agreed on by the network participants.

******

Cryptocurrencies (also referred to as "virtual currencies" and "digital currencies") are digital assets designed to act as a medium of exchange. There are numerous cryptocurrencies, the most well-known of which is bitcoin.

Leverage

The Fund may use leverage to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. The Fund is permitted to obtain leverage using any form or combination of financial leverage instruments, including through funds borrowed from banks or other financial institutions (i.e., a credit facility), margin facilities, or the issuance of notes in an aggregate amount up to 331∕3% of the Fund's total assets (or in the case of the issuance of preferred shares, 50% of total assets), including any assets purchased with borrowed money, immediately after giving effect to the leverage. The Fund may also use leverage generated by reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls and similar transactions. The Fund may use leverage opportunistically and may use different types, combinations or amounts of leverage over time, based on the Adviser's views concerning market conditions and investment opportunities. The Fund's strategies relating to its use of leverage may not be successful, and the Fund's use of leverage will cause the Fund's NAV to be more volatile than it would otherwise be. There can be no guarantee that the Fund will leverage its assets or, to the extent the Fund does use leverage, what percentage of its assets such leverage will represent.

On September 25, 2024, the Fund entered into a credit agreement with Texas Capital Bank (the "TCB Credit Agreement"). The maximum amount of the borrowing under the TCB Credit Agreement is $15,000,000. The purpose of the TCB Credit Agreement is primarily to finance temporarily the repurchase of shares of the Fund. The TCB Credit Agreement also contains customary covenants that, among other things, limit the Fund's ability to incur additional debt, incur certain types of liens, make certain distributions, and engage in certain transactions, including mergers and consolidations. The Fund's ability to borrow under the TCB Credit Agreement is also subject to the limitations of the 1940 Act and various other conditions.

The Fund may amend the TCB Credit Agreement or enter into one or more alternative or additional credit facilities in the future. There can be no assurance that the Fund will enter into an agreement for any new or amended credit facility on terms and conditions representative of the foregoing, or that additional material terms will not apply.

Effects of Leverage

Assuming that borrowings represent approximately 5% of the Fund's net assets, as of July 31, 2024, and that the Fund bears expenses relating to such borrowings at an annual effective interest rate of 7.3% (based on interest rates for such borrowings as of a recent date), the annual return that the Fund's portfolio must experience (net of expenses not related to borrowings) in order to cover the costs of such borrowings would be approximately 0.37%. These figures are estimates based on current market conditions, used for illustration purposes only. Actual expenses associated with borrowings used by the Fund may vary frequently and may be significantly higher or lower than the rate used for the example above.

The following table is furnished in response to requirements of the SEC. It is designed to illustrate the effects of the Fund's leverage due to borrowings on corresponding Share total return, assuming investment portfolio total returns (consisting of income and changes in the value of investments held in the Fund's portfolio) of -10%, -5%, 0%, 5% and 10%. These assumed investment portfolio returns are hypothetical figures and are not necessarily indicative of the investment portfolio returns expected to be experienced by the Fund. The table further assumes that the Fund's borrowings represent approximately 5% of the Fund's net assets and an annual rate of interest of 7.9% (as discussed above). Your actual returns may be greater or less than those appearing below.

Assumed Return of Portfolio (Net of Expenses)			(10.00	)%			(5.00	)%			0.00	%			5.00	%			10.00	%
Corresponding Share Total Return			(11.37	)%			(6.04	)%			(0.71	)%			4.61	%			9.94	%

Corresponding Share total return is composed of two elements - the Share dividends paid by the Fund (the amount of which is largely determined by the net investment income of the Fund after paying interest expenses on the Fund's borrowings) and gains or losses on the value of the securities the Fund owns.

TYPES OF INVESTMENTS AND RELATED RISKS

The value of your investment in the Fund, as well as the amount of return you receive on your investment in the Fund, may fluctuate significantly. You may lose part or all of your investment in the Fund or your investment may not perform as well as other similar investments. Therefore, you should consider carefully the following risks before investing in the Fund.

Risks Relating to Investment Strategies and Fund Investments

Equity Securities Risk. The value of the equity securities that the Fund holds may fall due to general market and economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the issuers of such securities participate or factors relating to specific companies in which the Fund invests. An unfavorable earnings report or a failure to make anticipated dividend payments by an issuer whose securities are held by the Fund may affect the value of the Fund's investment. Equity securities may also be particularly sensitive to general movements in the stock market, and a decline in the broader market may affect the value of the Fund's equity investments.

●

Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs). The Fund may invest in stocks of, warrants to purchase stock of, and other interests in SPACs or similar special purposes entities. A SPAC is a publicly traded company that raises investment capital for the purpose of acquiring or merging with an existing company. Because SPACs and similar entities are so-called "blank check companies" and do not have any operating history or ongoing business other than seeking acquisitions, the value of their securities is particularly dependent on the ability of the SPAC's management to identify a merger target and complete an acquisition. An investment in a SPAC or similar entity is subject to a variety of risks, including that (i) a significant portion of the monies raised by the SPAC for the purpose of identifying and effecting an acquisition or merger may be expended during the search for a target transaction; (ii) an attractive acquisition or merger target may not be identified at all and the SPAC will be required to return any remaining monies to shareholders; (iii) any proposed merger or acquisition may be unable to obtain the requisite approval, if any, of SPAC shareholders and/or antitrust and securities regulators; (iv) if an acquisition or merger target is identified, the Fund may elect not to participate in, or vote to approve, the proposed transaction or the Fund may be required to divest its interests in the SPAC, due to regulatory or other considerations, in which case the Fund may not reap any resulting benefits; (v) an acquisition or merger once effected may prove unsuccessful and an investment in the SPAC may lose value; (vi) the warrants or other rights with respect to the SPAC held by the Fund may expire worthless or may be repurchased or retired by the SPAC at an unfavorable price; (vii) the Fund may be delayed in receiving any redemption or liquidation proceeds from a SPAC to which it is entitled; (viii) an investment in an SPAC may be diluted by additional later offerings of interests in the SPAC or by other investors exercising existing rights to purchase shares of the SPAC; (ix) no or only a thinly traded market for shares of or interests in an SPAC may develop, leaving the Fund unable to sell its interest in an SPAC or to sell its interest only at a price below what the Fund believes is the SPAC interest's intrinsic value; and (x) the values of investments in SPACs may be highly volatile and may depreciate significantly over time. Until an acquisition or merger is completed, a SPAC generally invests its assets, less a portion retained to cover expenses, in U.S. government securities, money market securities and cash and does not typically pay dividends in respect of its common stock. As a result, it is possible that an investment in a SPAC may lose value.

Market Risk. The value of the Fund's assets will fluctuate as the markets in which the Fund invests fluctuate. The value of the Fund's investments may decline, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, simply because of economic changes or other events, such as inflation (or expectations for inflation), deflation (or expectations for deflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, market instability, debt crises and downgrades, embargoes, tariffs, sanctions and other trade barriers, regulatory events, other governmental trade or market control programs and related geopolitical events. In addition, the value of the Fund's investments may be negatively affected by the occurrence of global events such as war, military conflict, acts of terrorism, social unrest, environmental disasters, natural disasters or events, recessions, supply chain disruptions, political instability, and infectious disease epidemics or pandemics.

For example, an outbreak of an infectious disease may negatively affect economies, markets and individual companies throughout the world, including those in which the Fund invests. The effects of such pandemic to public health and business and market conditions, including exchange trading suspensions and closures may have a significant negative impact on the performance of the Fund's investments, increase the Fund's volatility, negatively impact the Fund's arbitrage and pricing mechanisms, exacerbate pre-existing political, social and economic risks to the Fund, and negatively impact broad segments of businesses and populations. The Fund's operations may be interrupted as a result, which may contribute to the negative impact on investment performance. In addition, governments, their regulatory agencies, or self-regulatory organizations may take actions in response to a pandemic that affect the instruments in which the Fund invests, or the issuers of such instruments, in ways that could have a significant negative impact on the Fund's investment performance.

Non-Diversification Risk. Investment companies are classified as either "diversified" or "non-diversified" under the 1940 Act. The Fund is classified as a "non-diversified" investment company under the 1940 Act, although it is diversified for Code purposes. An investment company classified as "diversified" under the 1940 Act is subject to certain limitations with respect to the value of the company's assets invested in particular issuers. As a non-diversified investment company, the Fund is subject to the risk that it will be more volatile than a diversified fund because the Fund may invest a relatively higher proportion of its assets in a relatively smaller number of issuers and may invest a larger proportion of its assets in a single issuer. As a result, the gains and losses on a single investment may have a greater impact on the Fund's NAV and may make the Fund more volatile than more diversified funds.

Disruptive Innovation Risk. Companies that the Adviser believes are capitalizing on disruptive innovation and developing technologies to displace older technologies or create new markets may not in fact do so. Companies that initially develop a novel technology may not be able to capitalize on the technology. Companies that develop disruptive technologies may face political or legal impediments attributable to competitors, industry groups or local and national governments. These companies may also be exposed to risks applicable to sectors other than the disruptive innovation theme for which they are chosen, and the securities issued by these companies may underperform the securities of other companies that are primarily focused on a particular theme. The Fund may invest in a company that does not currently derive any revenue from disruptive innovations or technologies, and there is no assurance that a company will derive any revenue from disruptive innovations or technologies in the future. A disruptive innovation or technology may constitute a small portion of a company's overall business. As a result, the success of a disruptive innovation or technology may not materially affect the value of the equity securities issued by the company.

Concentration Risk. The Fund's assets will be concentrated in securities of issuers having their principal business activities in groups of industries in the technology sector. To the extent that the Fund continues to be concentrated in groups of industries in the technology sector, the Fund will be subject to the risk that economic, political, business or other conditions that have a negative effect on such industry groups will negatively impact the Fund to a greater extent than if the Fund's assets were invested in a wider variety of sectors or industries.

Repurchase Program Risk. As described under "Share Repurchase Program," the Fund is an "interval fund" and, to provide some liquidity to Shareholders, makes quarterly offers to repurchase between 5% and 25% of its outstanding Shares at NAV, pursuant to Rule 23c-3 under the 1940 Act. The Fund believes that these repurchase offers are generally beneficial to the Fund's Shareholders, and generally are funded from available cash or sales of portfolio securities. However, the repurchase of Shares by the Fund decreases the assets of the Fund and, therefore, may have the effect of increasing the Fund's expense ratio. Repurchase offers and the need to fund repurchase obligations may also affect the ability of the Fund to be fully invested or force the Fund to maintain a higher percentage of its assets in liquid investments, which may harm the Fund's investment performance. Moreover, diminution in the size of the Fund through repurchases may result in untimely sales of portfolio securities, and may limit the ability of the Fund to participate in new investment opportunities. If the Fund uses leverage, repurchases of Shares may compound the adverse effects of leverage in a declining market. In addition, if the Fund borrows money to finance repurchases, interest on that borrowing will negatively affect Shareholders who do not tender their Shares by increasing Fund expenses and reducing any net investment income. Certain Shareholders may from time to time own or control a significant percentage of the Fund's Shares. Repurchase requests by these Shareholders of their Shares of the Fund may cause repurchases to be oversubscribed, with the result that Shareholders may only be able to have a portion of their Shares repurchased in connection with any repurchase offer. If a repurchase offer is oversubscribed and the Fund determines not to repurchase additional Shares beyond the repurchase offer amount, or if Shareholders tender a number of Shares greater than that which the Fund is entitled to purchase, the Fund will repurchase the Shares tendered on a pro rata basis, and Shareholders will have to wait until the next repurchase offer to make another repurchase request. Shareholders will be subject to the risk of NAV fluctuations during that period. Thus, there is also a risk that some Shareholders, in anticipation of proration, may tender more Shares than they wish to have repurchased in a particular quarter, thereby increasing the likelihood that proration will occur. The NAV of Shares tendered in a repurchase offer may fluctuate between the date a Shareholder submits a repurchase request and the Repurchase Request Deadline, and to the extent there is any delay between the Repurchase Request Deadline and the Repurchase Pricing Date. The NAV on the Repurchase Request Deadline or the Repurchase Pricing Date may be higher or lower than on the date a Shareholder submits a repurchase request. See "Share Repurchase Program."

Communications Sector Risk. The Fund will be more affected by the performance of the communications sector than a fund with less exposure to such sector. Communication companies are particularly vulnerable to the potential obsolescence of products and services due to technological advancement and the innovation of competitors. Companies in the communications sector may also be affected by other competitive pressures, such as pricing competition, as well as research and development costs, substantial capital requirements and government regulation. Additionally, fluctuating domestic and international demand, shifting demographics and often unpredictable changes in consumer tastes can drastically affect a communication company's profitability. While all companies may be susceptible to network security breaches, certain companies in the communications sector may be particular targets of hacking and potential theft of proprietary or consumer information or disruptions in service, which could have a material adverse effect on their businesses.

Consumer Discretionary Risk. The consumer discretionary sector may be affected by changes in domestic and international economies, exchange and interest rates, competition, consumers' disposable income and consumer preferences, social trends and marketing campaigns.

Convertible Securities Risk. Convertible securities are preferred stock or debt obligations that are convertible into common stock. Prior to conversion, convertible securities have the same general characteristics as non-convertible debt securities, which generally provide a stable stream of income with generally higher yields than those of equity securities of the same or similar issuers. The price of a convertible security will normally vary with changes in the price of the underlying equity security, although the higher yield tends to make the convertible security less volatile than the underlying equity security. As with debt securities, the market value of convertible securities tends to decrease as interest rates rise and increase as interest rates decline. While convertible securities generally offer lower interest or dividend yields than non-convertible debt securities of similar quality, they offer investors the potential to benefit from increases in the market prices of the underlying common stock.

Cryptocurrency Risk. Cryptocurrencies (also referred to as "virtual currencies" and "digital currencies") are digital assets designed to act as a medium of exchange. Cryptocurrency is an emerging asset class with a limited history. There are thousands of cryptocurrencies, the most well-known of which is bitcoin. The Fund may have exposure to bitcoin and Ether, another well-known cryptocurrency indirectly through an investment in GBTC, a privately offered, open-end investment vehicle that invests in bitcoin, ETFs with exposure to bitcoin, Ether, and other cryptocurrencies. Although the Fund does not directly invest in bitcoin or Ether, the Fund's indirect investments in these digital assets are exposed to risks associated with the price of bitcoin and Ether, which is subject to numerous factors and risks. Investments in or exposure to cryptocurrencies, such as bitcoin and Ether, are subject to substantial risks, including significant price volatility, fraud and manipulation, which are generally more pronounced in the crypto asset market. The Fund may also have exposure to other cryptocurrencies indirectly through an investment in a grantor trust or an investment vehicle to the extent permitted by, and in accordance with, any future law, regulation, guidance, or exemptive relief provided by the SEC or its staff or other regulatory agency or body having jurisdiction.

Cryptocurrency generally operates without central authority (such as a bank) and is not backed by any government, corporation, or other entity. Cryptocurrency is not generally accepted as legal tender. Regulation of cryptocurrency is still developing. Federal, state and/or foreign governments may restrict the development, use or exchange of cryptocurrency. As digital assets have grown in both popularity and market size, the U.S. Congress and a number of U.S. federal and state agencies have been examining the operations of digital asset networks, digital asset users and the digital asset trading market. Many of these state and federal agencies have brought enforcement actions and issued advisories and rules relating to digital asset markets. Ongoing and future regulatory actions with respect to digital assets generally or any single digital asset in particular may alter, perhaps to a materially adverse extent, the nature of an investment in the cryptocurrency and/or the ability of the Fund to continue to operate.

The market for bitcoin and Ether depends on, among other things: the supply and demand for bitcoin or Ether (and their respective futures); the adoption of bitcoin or Ether for commercial uses; the anticipated increase of investments in bitcoin or Ether-related investment products by retail and institutional investors; speculative interest in cryptocurrencies, cryptocurrency futures, and cryptocurrency-related investment products; regulatory or other restrictions on investors' ability to invest in cryptocurrency futures; and the potential ability to hedge against the price of cryptocurrencies with their respective futures (and vice versa). The market price of bitcoin and Ether has been subject to extreme fluctuations. The price of bitcoin or Ether could fall sharply (potentially to zero) for various reasons, including, but not limited to, regulatory changes, issues impacting the bitcoin network or the Ethereum and Ethereum Class networks, events involving entities that facilitate transactions in bitcoin or Ether, or changes in user preferences in favor of alternative cryptocurrencies. Furthermore, events that impact one cryptocurrency may lead to a decline in the value of other cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin and Ether.

Cryptocurrency exchanges and other trading venues on which cryptocurrencies trade are relatively new and, in most cases, largely unregulated. Therefore, cryptocurrency exchanges may be more exposed to fraud and failure than established, regulated exchanges for securities, derivatives and other currencies. However, the digital asset trading platforms on which cryptocurrencies are traded, and which may serve as a pricing source that is used for the purposes of valuing the Fund's investments, are or may become subject to enforcement actions by regulatory authorities, and such enforcement actions may have a material adverse impact on the Fund, its investments, and its ability to implement its investment strategies. Cryptocurrency exchanges may not have the same features as traditional exchanges to enhance the stability of trading on the exchange, such as measures designed to prevent sudden price swings such as "flash crashes." As a result, the prices of cryptocurrencies on exchanges may be subject to more volatility than traditional assets traded on regulated exchanges. Cryptocurrency exchanges are also subject to cyber security risks. Cryptocurrency exchanges have experienced cyber security breaches in the past and may be breached in the future, which could result in the theft and/or loss of bitcoin, Ether and other cryptocurrencies and impact the value of bitcoin. Furthermore, cyber security events, legal or regulatory actions, fraud, and technical glitches, may cause a cryptocurrency exchange to shut down temporarily or permanently or otherwise be disrupted which may also adversely affect the value of bitcoin or Ether.

The Fund's investments in cryptocurrency investment vehicles expose the Fund to all of the risks related to cryptocurrencies described above and also expose the Fund to risks related to cryptocurrency investment vehicles directly. Shares of cryptocurrency investment vehicles may trade at a significant premium or discount to NAV. To the extent a cryptocurrency investment vehicle trades at a discount to NAV, the value of the Fund's investment in the cryptocurrency investment vehicle would typically decrease. Similar to fiat currencies (i.e., a currency that is backed by a central bank or a national, supra-national or quasi-national organization), cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin and Ether, are susceptible to theft, loss and destruction. If a cryptocurrency investment vehicle experiences theft, loss, or destruction of its bitcoin holdings, The Fund's investments in the cryptocurrency investment vehicle could be harmed. Furthermore, because there is no guarantee that an active trading market for a cryptocurrency investment vehicle will exist at any time, the Fund's investments in such vehicle may also be subject to liquidity risk, which can impair the value of the Fund's investments in the cryptocurrency investment vehicle. Investors may experience losses if the value of the Fund's investments in cryptocurrency investment vehicles declines.

In 2022 and early 2023, several large participants in the cryptocurrency industry, including exchanges, lenders and investment firms, declared bankruptcy, which has resulted in a loss of confidence in participants of the digital asset ecosystem and negative publicity surrounding digital assets more broadly. These events have also contributed to financial distress among crypto asset market participants and widespread disruption in those markets. The collateral impacts of these types of failures, or of fraud or other adverse developments in the crypto asset markets, is difficult to predict. Furthermore, negative perception and/or a lack of stability and standardized regulation in the digital asset economy may reduce confidence in the digital asset economy and may result in greater volatility in the prices of bitcoin and other digital assets, including a depreciation in value. In addition, events that impact one cryptocurrency may lead to a volatility or a decline in the value or another cryptocurrency, such as bitcoin or Ether.

Bitcoin mining operations consume significant amounts of electricity, which may have a negative environmental impact and give rise to public opinion against allowing, or government regulations restricting, the use of electricity for mining operations. Additionally, miners may be forced to cease operations during an electricity shortage or power outage. Given the energy-intensiveness and electricity costs of mining, miners are restricted in where they can locate mining operations. Any shortage of electricity supply or increase in related costs (or if miners otherwise cease expanding processing power) will negatively impact the viability and expected economic return from bitcoin mining, which will affect the availability of bitcoin in the marketplace. Today, many bitcoin mining operations rely on fossil fuels to power their operations. Public perception of the impact of bitcoin mining on climate change may reduce the demand for bitcoin and increase the likelihood of government regulation. Such events could have a negative impact on the price of bitcoin, bitcoin futures, and the Fund's performance. In addition, sales of newly mined bitcoin (and sales of bitcoin by large holders) may impact the price of bitcoin.

Cryptocurrency Tax Risk. Many significant aspects of the U.S. federal income tax treatment of investments in bitcoin are uncertain and an investment in bitcoin may produce income that is not treated as qualifying income for purposes of the income test applicable to regulated investment companies. GBTC is expected to be treated as a grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and an investment by the Fund in GBTC will generally be treated as a direct investment in bitcoin for such purposes. See "Taxes" in the Fund's SAI for more information.

Currency Risk. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may affect the value of the Fund's investments in securities traded in foreign markets and held in foreign currencies. Foreign currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly. They are determined by supply and demand in the foreign exchange markets, the relative merits of investments in different countries, actual or perceived changes in interest rates, and other complex factors. Currency exchange rates also can be affected unpredictably by intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign governments or central banks or by currency controls or political developments.

Depositary Receipts Risk. ADRs and GDRs are securities typically issued by a bank or trust company that evidence ownership of underlying securities issued by a foreign corporation and entitle the holder to all dividends and capital gains that are paid out on the underlying foreign securities. The issuers of certain depositary receipts are under no obligation to distribute shareholder communications to the holders of such receipts, or to pass through to them any voting rights with respect to the deposited securities. Investment in depositary receipts may be less liquid than the underlying shares in their primary trading market. Depositary receipts may not necessarily be denominated in the same currency as the underlying securities into which they may be converted. In addition, the issuers of the stock underlying unsponsored depositary receipts are not obligated to disclose material information in the United States. The issuers of depositary receipts may discontinue issuing new depositary receipts and withdraw existing depositary receipts at any time, which may result in costs and delays in the distribution of the underlying assets to the Fund and may negatively impact the Fund's performance.

Derivatives Risk. Derivatives involve risks different from, and, in certain cases, greater than, the risks presented by more traditional investments. These include credit risk, liquidity risk, management risk and leverage risk. Derivative products are highly specialized instruments that require an understanding not only of the underlying instrument but also of the derivative itself, without the benefit of observing the performance of the derivative under all possible market conditions. In particular, the use and complexity of derivatives require the maintenance of adequate controls to monitor the transactions entered into, the ability to assess the risk that a derivative adds to the Fund's investment portfolio, and the ability to forecast price, interest rate or currency exchange rate movements correctly. The failure of another party to a derivative to comply with the terms may cause the Fund to incur a loss. The credit risk for exchange-traded or centrally cleared derivatives is generally less than for privately negotiated derivatives through the interposition of a clearinghouse to the exchange-traded or centrally-cleared derivative trade, which provides a guarantee of performance. If a derivative transaction is particularly large or if the relevant market is illiquid (as is the case with many privately negotiated derivatives), it may not be possible to initiate a transaction or liquidate a position at an advantageous price. Adverse changes in the value or level of the underlying asset, rate or index can result in a loss substantially greater than the amount invested in the derivative itself.

The SEC rule related to the use of derivatives, short sales, reverse repurchase agreements and certain other transactions by registered investment companies requires funds to trade derivatives and other transactions that create future payment or delivery obligations (except reverse repurchase agreements and similar financing transactions) subject to a value-at-risk ("VaR") leverage limit, establishment of a derivatives risk management program and reporting requirements. Generally, these requirements apply unless the Fund qualifies as a "limited derivatives user," as defined in the rule. Under the rule, when the Fund trades reverse repurchase agreements or similar financing transactions, including certain tender option bonds, it must aggregate the amount of indebtedness associated with the reverse repurchase agreements or similar financing transactions with the aggregate amount of any other senior securities representing indebtedness when calculating the fund's asset coverage ratio or treat all such transactions as derivatives transactions. Reverse repurchase agreements or similar financing transactions aggregated with other indebtedness do not need to be included in the calculation of whether the Fund is a limited derivatives user, but for funds subject to the VaR testing, reverse repurchase agreements and similar financing transactions must be included for purposes of such testing whether treated as derivatives transactions or not. The SEC also provided guidance in connection with the rule regarding use of securities lending collateral that may limit the Fund's securities lending activities. These requirements may limit the ability of the Fund to use derivatives and reverse repurchase agreements and similar financing transactions as part of its investment strategies. These requirements may increase the cost of the Fund's investments and cost of doing business, which could adversely affect investors.

Emerging Market Securities Risk. Investment in securities (including depositary receipts) of emerging market issuers may present risks that are greater than or different from those associated with securities of developed market issuers due to less developed and liquid markets and such factors as increased social, economic, political, regulatory, or other uncertainties. These risks include: smaller market capitalization of and less liquidity in securities markets, significant price volatility, restrictions on foreign investment and repatriation of income and dividends, greater social, economic and political uncertainty and instability, unstable governments, civil conflicts and war, more substantial governmental involvement in the economy, less governmental supervision and regulation, sanctions or other measures by the United States or other governments, higher transaction costs, unavailability of currency hedging techniques, less stringent investor protection standards, differences in accounting, auditing, financial reporting and recordkeeping standards, which may result in unavailability of material information about issuers and less developed legal systems. In addition, the Fund is limited in its ability to exercise its legal rights or enforce a counterparty's legal obligations in certain jurisdictions outside of the United States, in particular, in emerging markets countries. In certain markets where securities and other instruments are not traded "delivery versus payment," the Fund may not receive timely payment for securities or other instruments it has delivered or receive delivery of securities paid for and may be subject to increased risk that the counterparty will fail to make payments or delivery when due or default completely. In addition, emerging markets may be particularly sensitive to future economic or political crises could lead to or exacerbate existing price controls, forced mergers, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, seizure, nationalization or creation of government monopolies. Emerging market currencies may experience significant declines against the U.S. dollar. Inflation and rapid fluctuations in inflation rates have had, and may continue to have, negative effects on the economies and securities markets of certain emerging market countries. In addition, emerging securities markets may have different clearance and settlement procedures, which may be unable to keep pace with the volume of securities transactions or otherwise make it difficult to engage in such transactions. Settlement problems may cause the Fund to miss attractive investment opportunities, hold a portion of its assets in cash pending investment, or be delayed in disposing of a portfolio security. Such a delay could result in possible liability to a purchaser of the security. Events and evolving conditions in certain economies or markets may alter the risks associated with investments tied to countries or regions that historically were perceived as comparatively stable becoming riskier and more volatile. These risks are magnified in emerging markets.

Financial Technology Risk. Companies that are developing financial technologies that seek to disrupt or displace established financial institutions generally face competition from much larger and more established firms. Fintech Innovation Companies may not be able to capitalize on their disruptive technologies if they face political and/or legal impediments attributable to competitors, industry groups or local and national governments. Laws generally vary by country, creating some challenges to achieving scale. A Fintech Innovation Company may not currently derive any revenue, and there is no assurance that such company will derive any revenue from innovative technologies in the future. Additionally, Fintech Innovation Companies may be adversely impacted by potential rapid product obsolescence, cybersecurity attacks, increased regulatory oversight and disruptions in the technology they depend on.

Foreign Securities Risk. Investment in the securities of foreign issuers involves risks beyond those associated with investments in U.S. securities. These additional risks include greater market volatility, the availability of less reliable financial information, higher transactional and custody costs, taxation by foreign governments, possible limits on repatriation of income and dividends of foreign issuers, decreased market liquidity and political instability. Because many foreign securities markets may be limited in size, the prices of securities that trade in such markets may be influenced by large traders. Certain foreign markets that have historically been considered relatively stable may become volatile in response to changed conditions or new developments. Increased interconnectivity of world economies and financial markets increases the possibility that adverse developments and conditions in one country or region will affect the stability of economies and financial markets in other countries or regions. Foreign issuers are often subject to less stringent requirements regarding accounting, auditing, financial reporting and record keeping than are U.S. issuers, and therefore, not all material information may be available or reliable. Securities exchanges or foreign governments may adopt rules or regulations that may negatively impact the Fund's ability to invest in foreign securities or may prevent the Fund from repatriating its investments. In addition, the Fund may not receive shareholder communications or be permitted to vote the securities that it holds, as the issuers may be under no legal obligation to distribute shareholder communications.

Certain issuers located in foreign countries in which the Fund invests may operate in, or have dealings with, countries subject to sanctions and/or embargoes imposed by the U.S. Government, other countries and the United Nations and/or countries identified by the U.S. Government as state sponsors of terrorism. As a result, an issuer may sustain damage to its reputation if it is identified as an issuer which operates in, or has dealings with, such countries. The type and severity of sanctions and other similar measures, including counter sanctions and other retaliatory actions, that may be imposed could vary broadly in scope, and their impact is impossible to predict. These types of measures may include, but are not limited to, banning a sanctioned country from global payment systems that facilitate cross-border payments, restricting the settlement of securities transactions by certain investors, and freezing the assets of particular countries, entities, or persons. The imposition of sanctions and other similar measures could, among other things, cause a decline in the value and/or liquidity of securities issued by the sanctioned country or companies located in or economically tied to the sanctioned country, downgrades in the credit ratings of the sanctioned country or companies located in or economically tied to the sanctioned country, devaluation of the sanctioned country's currency, and increased market volatility and disruption in the sanctioned country and throughout the world. Sanctions and other similar measures could limit or prevent the Fund from buying and selling securities (in the sanctioned country and other markets), significantly delay or prevent the settlement of securities transactions, and significantly impact the Fund's liquidity and performance.

Securities registration, custody, and settlement may in some instances be subject to delays and legal and administrative uncertainties. Foreign investment in the securities markets of certain foreign countries is restricted or controlled to varying degrees. These restrictions or controls may at times limit or preclude investment in certain securities and may increase the costs and expenses of the Fund. In addition, the repatriation of investment income, capital or the proceeds of sales of securities from certain of the countries is controlled under regulations, including in some cases the need for certain advance government notification or authority, and if a deterioration occurs in a country's balance of payments, the country could impose temporary restrictions on foreign capital remittances. The Fund also could be adversely affected by delays in, or a refusal to grant, any required governmental approval for repatriation, as well as by the application to it of other restrictions on investment.

"Follow-on" Investment Risk. Following an initial investment in a portfolio company, the Fund may make additional investments in that portfolio company as "follow-on" investments, in order to: (1) increase or maintain in whole or in part the Fund's equity ownership percentage; (2) exercise warrants, options or convertible securities that were acquired in the original or subsequent financing; or (3) attempt to preserve or enhance the value of the Fund's investment.

The Fund may elect not to make follow-on investments or may otherwise lack sufficient funds to make those investments or lack access to desired follow-on investment opportunities. The Fund has the discretion to make any follow-on investments, subject to the availability of capital resources and of the investment opportunity. The failure to make follow-on investments may, in some circumstances, jeopardize the continued viability of a portfolio company and the Fund's initial investment, or may result in a missed opportunity for the Fund to increase the Fund's participation in a successful operation. Even if the Fund has sufficient capital to make a desired follow-on investment, the Fund may elect not to make a follow-on investment because it may not want to increase its concentration of risk, because it prefers other opportunities, or because the Fund is inhibited by compliance with the desire to qualify to maintain the Fund's status as a RIC or lack access to the desired follow-on investment opportunity.

In addition, the Fund may be unable to complete follow-on investments in its portfolio companies that have conducted an initial public offering as a result of regulatory or financial restrictions.

Future Expected Genomic Business Risk. The Adviser may invest some of the Fund's assets in Genomics Revolution Companies that do not currently derive a substantial portion of their current revenues from genomic-focused businesses and there is no assurance that any company will do so in the future, which may adversely affect the ability of the Fund to achieve its investment objective.

Health Care Sector Risk. The profitability of companies in the health care sector may be affected by extensive government regulations, restrictions on government reimbursement for medical expenses, rising costs of medical products and services, pricing pressure, an increased emphasis on outpatient services, limited number of products, product obsolescence due to industry innovation, changes in technologies and other market developments. A major source of revenue for certain companies in the health care sector is payments from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. As a result, such companies are sensitive to legislative changes and reductions in governmental spending for such programs. Failure of health care companies to comply with applicable laws and regulations can result in the imposition of civil and/or criminal fines, penalties and, in some instances, exclusion of participation in government sponsored programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. State or local health care reform measures may also adversely affect health care companies. Health care companies will continue to be affected by the efforts of governments and third-party payors to contain or reduce health care costs. Many health care companies are heavily dependent on patent protection. The expiration of patents may adversely affect the profitability of these companies. Many health care companies are subject to extensive litigation based on product liability and similar claims. Health care companies are subject to competitive forces that may make it difficult to raise prices and, in fact, may result in price discounting. Many new products in the health care sector may be subject to regulatory approvals. The process of obtaining such approvals may be long and costly, and delays or failure to receive such approvals may negatively impact the business of such companies. Companies in the health care sector may be thinly capitalized.

●

Biotechnology Company Risk. A biotechnology company's valuation can often be based largely on the potential or actual performance of a limited number of products and can accordingly be greatly affected if one of its products proves, among other things, unsafe, ineffective or unprofitable. Biotechnology companies are subject to regulation by, and the restrictions of, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, state and local governments, and foreign regulatory authorities.

●

Pharmaceutical Company Risk. Companies in the pharmaceutical industry can be significantly affected by, among other things, government approval of products and services, government regulation and reimbursement rates, product liability claims, patent expirations and protection and intense competition.

Inflation Risk. The Fund's investments are subject to inflation risk, which is the risk that the intrinsic value of assets or income from investments will be less in the future as inflation decreases the purchasing power and value of money (i.e., as inflation increases, the values of the Fund's assets can decline as can the value of the Fund's distributions). Inflation rates may change frequently and significantly as a result of various factors, including unexpected shifts in the domestic or global economy and changes in monetary or economic policies (or expectations that these policies may change).

Information Technology Sector Risk. The information technology sector includes companies engaged in internet software and services, technology hardware and storage peripherals, electronic equipment instruments and components, and semiconductors and semiconductor equipment. Information technology companies face intense competition, both domestically and internationally, which may have an adverse effect on profit margins. Information technology companies may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel. The products of information technology companies may face rapid product obsolescence due to technological developments and frequent new product introduction, unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel. Failure to introduce new products, develop and maintain a loyal customer base, or achieve general market acceptance for their products could have a material adverse effect on a company's business. Companies in the information technology sector are heavily dependent on intellectual property and the loss of patent, copyright and trademark protections may adversely affect the profitability of these companies.

●

Internet Company Risk. Many Internet-related companies have incurred large losses since their inception and may continue to incur large losses in the hope of capturing market share and generating future revenues. Accordingly, many such companies expect to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future, and may never be profitable. The markets in which many Internet companies compete face rapidly evolving industry standards, frequent new service and product announcements, introductions and enhancements, and changing customer demands. The failure of an Internet company to adapt to such changes could have a material adverse effect on the company's business. Additionally, the widespread adoption of new Internet, networking, telecommunications technologies, or other technological changes could require substantial expenditures by an Internet company to modify or adapt its services or infrastructure, which could have a material adverse effect on an Internet company's business.

●

Semiconductor Company Risk. Competitive pressures may have a significant effect on the financial condition of semiconductor companies and, as product cycles shorten and manufacturing capacity increases, these companies may become increasingly subject to aggressive pricing, which hampers profitability. Reduced demand for end-user products, under-utilization of manufacturing capacity, and other factors could adversely impact the operating results of companies in the semiconductor sector. Semiconductor companies typically face high capital costs and may be heavily dependent on intellectual property rights. The semiconductor sector is highly cyclical, which may cause the operating results of many semiconductor companies to vary significantly. The stock prices of companies in the semiconductor sector have been and likely will continue to be extremely volatile.

●

Software Industry Risk. The software industry can be significantly affected by intense competition, aggressive pricing, technological innovations, and product obsolescence. Companies in the software industry are subject to significant competitive pressures, such as aggressive pricing, new market entrants, competition for market share, short product cycles due to an accelerated rate of technological developments and the potential for limited earnings and/or falling profit margins. These companies also face the risks that new services, equipment or technologies will not be accepted by consumers and businesses or will become rapidly obsolete. These factors can affect the profitability of these companies and, as a result, the value of their securities. Also, patent protection is integral to the success of many companies in this industry, and profitability can be affected materially by, among other things, the cost of obtaining (or failing to obtain) patent approvals, the cost of litigating patent infringement and the loss of patent protection for products (which significantly increases pricing pressures and can materially reduce profitability with respect to such products). In addition, many software companies have limited operating histories. Prices of these companies' securities historically have been more volatile than other securities, especially over the short term.

Investment Opportunity Risk. The marketplace for venture capital investing has become increasingly competitive. Participation by financial intermediaries has increased, substantial amounts of funds have been dedicated to making investments in the private sector and the competition for investment opportunities is high. Some of the Fund's potential competitors may have greater financial and personnel resources than the Fund does. There can be no assurances that the Fund will locate an adequate number of attractive investment opportunities. To the extent that the Fund encounters competition for investments, returns to the Fund's investors may vary.

Investments in Venture Capital Funds Risk. The Fund may invest in Private Funds that are venture capital funds. Investments in venture capital funds generally involve more risk than investments in private equity funds focused on later-stage investment due to the nature of the companies in which venture capital funds invest (e.g., startup companies). Venture capital investing tends to be more speculative; there is a greater risk of loss of up to the entire amount invested because the underlying assets are generally attempting to do business in nascent or developing areas; and the competition for gaining market share or a proven product may be particularly intense. Investments in venture capital funds are highly illiquid and there is no guarantee that the Fund will be able to realize its investments in the expected timeframe. In many instances, a venture capital investment may require additional infusions of capital in order to protect earlier investments, although there is no guarantee that such additional investments will lead to a successful investment by the venture capital fund.

Issuer Risk. Because the Fund may invest in a limited number of issuers, it is subject to the risk that the value of the Fund's portfolio may decline due to a decline in value of the equity securities of particular issuers. The value of an issuer's equity securities may decline for reasons directly related to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer's goods or services. The value of an individual security or particular type of security can be more volatile than the market as a whole and can perform differently from the value of the market as a whole. The value of securities of smaller issuers can be more volatile than that of larger issuers. A change in the financial condition, market perception or credit rating of an issuer of securities included in the Fund's portfolio may cause the value of its securities to decline.

Large-Capitalization Companies Risk. Large-capitalization companies tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. Large-capitalization companies generally are less volatile than companies with smaller market capitalizations. In exchange for this potentially lower risk, the value of large capitalization companies may not rise as much as that of smaller capitalization companies.

Leverage Risk. The Fund may utilize leverage to the maximum extent permitted by law for investment and other general corporate purposes. The Fund may obtain leverage by issuing preferred shares and/or notes and it may also borrow funds from banks and other financial institutions. The Fund may also gain leverage synthetically through swaps and other derivatives. The use of leverage to purchase additional securities creates an opportunity for increased returns, but also creates risks for the Fund's common shareholders, including increased variability of the Fund's net income, distributions, NAV of its common shares in relation to market changes. Leverage is a speculative technique that exposes the Fund to greater risk and increased costs than if it were not implemented. Increases and decreases in the value of the Fund's portfolio will be magnified if the Fund uses leverage. In particular, leverage may magnify interest rate risk, which is the risk that the prices of portfolio securities will fall (or rise) if market interest rates for those types of securities rise (or fall). As a result, leverage may cause greater changes in the Fund's NAV, which will be borne entirely by the Fund's common shareholders, and in the price at which its common shares trade in the secondary market. If the Fund issues preferred shares and/or notes or engages in other borrowings, it will have to pay dividends on its preferred shares or interest on its notes or borrowings, which will increase expenses and may reduce the Fund's return. These dividend payments or interest expenses (which will be borne entirely by common shareholders) may be greater than the Fund's return on the underlying investments. The Fund's leveraging strategy, if utilized, may not be successful.

The Fund may issue preferred shares and/or notes or other forms of indebtedness as a form of leverage. These means of obtaining leverage would be senior to the Fund's common shares, such that holders of preferred shares and/or notes or other Fund indebtedness would have priority over the common shareholders in the distribution of the Fund's assets, including dividends, distributions of principal and liquidating distributions. If preferred shares are issued and outstanding, holders of preferred shares would vote together with the holders of common shares on all matters, including the election of trustees. Additionally, holders of preferred shares would have the right separately to elect two trustees of the Fund, voting separately as a class, and would vote separately as a class on certain matters which may at times give holders of preferred shares disproportionate influence over the Fund's affairs. If the preferred shares were limited in their term, redemptions of such preferred shares would require the Fund to liquidate its investments and would reduce the Fund's use of leverage, which could negatively impact common shareholders. In addition, if the Fund elects to issue preferred shares and/or notes (or other forms of indebtedness) its ability to make distributions to its common shareholders or to repurchase its shares will be limited by the asset coverage requirements and other limitations imposed by the 1940 Act and the Fund's lenders.

The Fund will pay (and common shareholders will bear) all costs and expenses relating to the issuance and ongoing maintenance of any preferred shares and/or notes or other forms of indebtedness issued by the Fund, including higher advisory fees. As a result, the Fund cannot assure you that the issuance of preferred shares and/or notes or other forms of indebtedness will provide a higher yield or return to the holders of the Fund's common shares. If the Fund offers and/or issues preferred shares and/or notes or other forms of indebtedness, the costs of the offering will be borne immediately by the Fund's common shareholders and result in a reduction of the NAV of the Fund's common shares.

The Fund anticipates that any money borrowed from a bank or other financial institution for investment purposes will accrue interest based on shorter-term interest rates that would be periodically reset. So long as the Fund's portfolio provides a higher rate of return, net of expenses, than the interest rate on borrowed money, as reset periodically, the leverage may cause common shareholders to receive a higher current rate of return than if the Fund were not leveraged. If, however, long-term and/or short-term rates rise, the interest rate on borrowed money could exceed the rate of return on securities held by the Fund, reducing returns to common shareholders. Developments in the credit markets may adversely affect the ability of the Fund to borrow for investment purposes and may increase the costs of such borrowings, which would reduce returns to common shareholders.

There is no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be successful. Leverage involves risks and special considerations for common shareholders, including:

●	the likelihood of greater volatility of NAV and dividend rate of common shares than a comparable portfolio without leverage;

●	the risk that fluctuations in interest rates on borrowings or in dividend payments on, principal proceeds distributed to, or redemption of any preferred shares and/or notes or other forms of indebtedness that the Fund has issued will reduce the return to the common shareholders;

●	the effect of leverage in a declining market, which is likely to cause a greater decline in the NAV of the Fund's common shares than if the Fund were not leveraged; and

●	leverage may increase expenses (which will be borne entirely by common shareholders), which may reduce total return.

If the Fund issues preferred shares and/or notes or other forms of indebtedness, the Fund may be subject to certain restrictions on investments imposed by the guidelines of one or more rating agencies, which may issue ratings for the preferred shares and/or notes or short-term debt securities issued by the Fund, or may be subject to covenants or other restrictions imposed by its lenders. These guidelines may impose asset coverage or portfolio composition requirements that are more stringent than those imposed by the 1940 Act. Certain types of borrowings by the Fund may result in the Fund being subject to covenants relating to asset coverage and portfolio composition requirements. These covenants and restrictions may negatively affect the Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective.

Limited Influence Risk. A significant portion of the Fund's investments may represent minority stakes in privately held companies. As is the case with minority holdings in general, such minority stakes that the Fund may hold will have neither the control characteristics of majority stakes nor the valuation premiums accorded majority or controlling stakes. The Fund may also invest in companies for which the Fund has no right to appoint a director or otherwise exert significant influence.

In such cases, the Fund will be reliant on the existing management and board of directors of such companies, which may include representatives of other financial investors with whom the Fund is not affiliated and whose interests may conflict with the Fund's interests.

Liquidity Risk. Although the Fund expects that some of its equity investments will trade on public or private secondary marketplaces, certain of the securities the Fund holds will be subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or will otherwise be less liquid than publicly traded securities. In addition, while some portfolio companies may trade on private secondary marketplaces, the Fund can provide no assurance that such a trading market will continue or remain active, or that the Fund will be able to sell its position in any portfolio company at the time it desires to do so and at the price it anticipates. The illiquidity of its investments, including those that are traded on private secondary marketplaces, will make it difficult for the Fund to sell such investments if the need arises. Also, if the Fund is required to liquidate all or a portion of its portfolio quickly, the Fund may realize significantly less than the value at which it has previously recorded its investments. The Fund has no limitation on the portion of its portfolio that may be invested in illiquid securities, and a substantial portion or all of its portfolio may be invested in such illiquid securities from time-to-time.

Micro-Capitalization Companies Risk. Micro-capitalization companies are subject to substantially greater risks of loss and price fluctuations because their earnings and revenues tend to be less predictable (and some companies may be experiencing significant losses). Their share prices tend to be more volatile and their markets less liquid than companies with larger market capitalizations. The shares of micro-capitalization companies tend to trade less frequently than those of larger, more established companies, which can adversely affect the pricing of these securities and the future ability to sell these securities. In addition, because these companies are not well-known to the investing public, do not have significant institutional ownership and are followed by relatively few security analysts, there will normally be less publicly available information concerning their securities compared to what is available for the securities of larger companies. Adverse publicity and investor perceptions, regardless of whether the perceptions are based on fundamental analysis, can decrease the value and liquidity of securities held by the Fund.

New Fund Risk. There can be no assurance that the Fund will grow to or maintain an economically viable size, in which case the Board may determine to liquidate the Fund if it determines that liquidation is in the best interest of shareholders. Liquidation of the Fund can be initiated without shareholder approval. As a result, the timing of the Fund's liquidation may not be favorable to a shareholder.

Next Generation Internet Companies Risk. The risks described below apply, in particular, to the Fund's investment in Next Generation Internet Companies.

●

Internet Information Provider Company Risk. Internet information provider companies provide Internet navigation services and reference guide information and publish, provide or present proprietary advertising and/or third party content. Such companies often derive a large portion of their revenues from advertising, and a reduction in spending by or loss of advertisers could seriously harm their business. This business is rapidly evolving and intensely competitive, and is subject to changing technologies, shifting user needs, and frequent introductions of new products and services. The research and development of new, technologically advanced products is a complex and uncertain process requiring high levels of innovation and investment, as well as the accurate anticipation of technology, market trends and consumer needs. The number of people who access the Internet is increasing dramatically and a failure to attract and retain a substantial number of such users to a company's products and services or to develop products and technologies that are more compatible with alternative devices, could adversely affect operating results. Concerns regarding a company's products, services or processes that may compromise the privacy of users or other privacy related matters, even if unfounded, could damage a company's reputation and adversely affect operating results.

●

Catalog and Mail Order House Company Risk. Catalog and mail order house companies may be exposed to significant inventory risks that may adversely affect operating results due to, among other factors: seasonality, new product launches, rapid changes in product cycles and pricing, defective merchandise, changes in consumer demand and consumer spending patterns, or changes in consumer tastes with respect to products. Demand for products can change significantly between the time inventory or components are ordered and the date of sale. The acquisition of certain types of inventory or components may require significant lead-time and prepayment and they may not be returnable. Failure to adequately predict customer demand or otherwise optimize and operate distribution centers could result in excess or insufficient inventory or distribution capacity, result in increased costs, impairment charges, or both. The business of catalog and mail order house companies can be highly seasonal and failure to stock or restock popular products in sufficient amounts during high demand periods could significantly affect revenue and future growth. Increased website traffic during peak periods could cause system interruptions which may reduce the volume of goods sold and the attractiveness of a company's products and services.

Valuation Risk. The Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in non-publicly traded securities. As a result, although the Fund expects that some of its equity investments may trade on public or private secondary marketplaces, a market value for its direct investments in certain portfolio companies will typically not be readily determinable. Under the 1940 Act, for the Fund's investments for which there are no readily available market quotations, including securities that while listed on a private securities exchange, have not actively traded, the Fund will value such securities at fair value as determined in good faith in accordance with the Valuation Procedure. While the Board retains ultimate authority as to the appropriate valuation of each such investment, the Board has appointed the Adviser as the Fund's valuation designee to make fair value determinations. To assist with those determinations, the Adviser's personnel will prepare portfolio company valuations using, where available, the most recent portfolio company financial statements and forecasts for consideration by the Adviser's Pricing Committee. The Fund utilizes the services of an independent pricing service, which prepares valuations for each of the Fund's portfolio investments that are not publicly traded or for which the Fund does not have readily available market quotations, including securities that while listed on a private securities exchange, have not actively traded. The types of factors that the Fund takes into account with respect to the valuation of such non-traded investments include, as relevant and, to the extent available, the valuation of the investment as of the portfolio company's latest funding round, the portfolio company's earnings, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to valuations of publicly traded companies, comparisons to recent sales of comparable companies, the discounted value of the cash flows of the portfolio company and other relevant factors. This information may not be readily available because it is difficult to obtain financial and other information with respect to private companies, and even where the Fund is able to obtain such information, there can be no assurance that it is complete or accurate. Because such valuations are inherently uncertain and may be based on estimates, the determinations of fair value for certain securities may differ materially from the values that would be assessed if a readily available market quotation for these securities existed.

Performance Risk. If a significant investment in one or more companies fails to perform as expected, the Fund's financial results could be more negatively affected, and the magnitude of the loss could be more significant, than if the Fund had made smaller investments in more companies. The Fund's financial results could be materially adversely affected if these portfolio companies or any of the Fund's other significant portfolio companies encounter financial difficulty and fail to repay their obligations or to perform as expected.

Preferred Securities Risk. Preferred securities are contractual obligations that entail rights to distributions declared by the issuer's board of directors but may permit the issuer to defer or suspend distributions for a certain period of time. Preferred securities may be subject to more fluctuations in market value due to changes in market perceptions of the issuer's ability to continue to pay dividends. If the Fund owns a preferred security whose issuer has deferred or suspended distributions, the Fund may be required to account for the distribution that has been deferred or suspended for tax purposes, even though it may not have received this income. Preferred securities are subordinated to any debt the issuer has outstanding. Accordingly, preferred stock dividends are not paid until all debt obligations are first met. Preferred securities may lose substantial value if distributions are deferred, suspended or not declared. Preferred securities may also permit the issuer to convert preferred securities into the issuer's common stock. Preferred Securities that are convertible into common stock may decline in value if the common stock to which preferred securities may be converted declines in value. Preferred securities may be less liquid than equity securities.

Private Investments in Public Equities Risk. The Fund may purchase equity securities in a private placement that are issued by issuers who have outstanding, publicly traded equity securities of the same class ("private investments in public equity" or "PIPEs"). Shares in PIPEs generally are not registered with the SEC until after a certain time period from the date the private sale is completed. This restricted period can last many months. Until the public registration process is completed, PIPEs are restricted as to resale and the Fund cannot freely trade the securities. Generally, such restrictions cause the PIPEs to be illiquid during this time. PIPEs may contain provisions that the issuer will pay specified financial penalties to the holder if the issuer does not publicly register the restricted equity securities within a specified period of time, but there is no assurance that the restricted equity securities will be publicly registered, or that the registration will remain in effect.

Privately Held Company Risk. The Fund invests in privately held companies. Investments in privately held companies involve a number of significant risks, including the following:

●	these companies may have limited financial resources and may be unable to meet their obligations, which may be accompanied by a deterioration in the value of any collateral and a reduction in the likelihood of the Fund realizing any guarantees it may have obtained in connection with its investment;

●	they typically have shorter operating histories, narrower product lines and smaller market shares than larger businesses, which tend to render them more vulnerable to competitors' actions and market conditions, as well as general economic downturns;

●	they typically depend on the management talents and efforts of a small group of persons; therefore, the death, disability, resignation or termination of one or more of these persons could have a material adverse effect on the portfolio company and, in turn, on the Fund;

●

there is generally little public information about these companies. These companies and their financial information are not subject to the Exchange Act (as defined above) and other regulations that govern public companies, and the Fund may be unable to uncover all material information about these companies, which may prevent the Fund from making a fully informed investment decision and cause the Fund to lose money on its investments;

●	they generally have less predictable operating results and may require substantial additional capital to support their operations, finance expansion or maintain their competitive position;

●	the Fund's executive officers, Trustees and the Adviser may, in the ordinary course of business, be named as defendants in litigation arising from the Fund's investments in the Fund's portfolio companies;

●	changes in laws and regulations, as well as interpretations of relevant laws and regulations, may adversely affect their business, financial structure or prospects; and

●	they may have difficulty accessing the capital markets to meet future capital needs.

Regular Realization Event Risk. The Fund does not expect regular realization events (e.g., mergers, refinancings or public offerings), if any, to occur in the near term with respect to the majority of the Fund's portfolio companies. The Fund expects that its holdings of equity securities may require several years to appreciate in value, and it can offer no assurance that such appreciation will occur. Even if such appreciation does occur, it is likely that the Fund and its shareholders could wait for an extended period of time before any appreciation or sale of the Fund's investments, and any attendant distributions of gains, may be realized.

Rights and Warrants Risk. Rights and warrants are option securities permitting their holders to subscribe for other securities. Rights and warrants do not represent an ownership interest in an issuer or carry with them dividend or voting rights with respect to the underlying securities. Investment in rights and warrants may thus be considered more speculative than certain other types of investments. In addition, the value of a right or a warrant does not necessarily change with the value of the underlying securities, and ceases to have value if it is not exercised prior to expiration.

Sector Risk. The Fund may, from time to time, invest more heavily in companies in a particular economic sector or sectors. Economic or regulatory changes adversely affecting such sectors may have more of an impact on the Fund's performance than if the Fund held a broader range of investments.

Small- and Medium-Capitalization Companies Risk. The Fund may invest in small- and medium capitalization companies and, therefore, will be subject to certain risks associated with small- and medium-capitalization companies. These companies are often subject to less analyst coverage so that less market research is available about their operations, and they may be in early and less predictable periods of their corporate existences, with little or no record of profitability. In addition, these companies often have greater price volatility, lower trading volume and less liquidity than larger more established companies. Small- and medium-capitalization companies tend to have smaller revenues, narrower product lines, less management depth and experience, smaller shares of their product or service markets, fewer financial resources and less competitive strength than large-capitalization companies. Returns on investments in securities of small- and medium-capitalization companies could trail the returns on investments in securities of larger capitalization companies.

Temporary Defensive Strategy Risk. When the Fund pursues a temporary defensive strategy inconsistent with its principal investment strategies, it may not achieve its investment objective.

Other Risks Relating to the Fund

Anti-Takeover Risk. The Declaration of Trust and bylaws, as well as certain statutory and regulatory requirements, contain certain provisions that may have the effect of discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire a controlling interest in the Fund. Subject to the limitations of the 1940 Act, the Board may, without Shareholder action, authorize the issuance of Shares in one or more classes or series, including preferred Shares; and the Board may, without Shareholder action, amend the Declaration of Trust. These anti-takeover provisions may inhibit a change of control in circumstances that could give Shareholders the opportunity to realize a premium over the value of the Shares.

Cayman Subsidiary Tax Risk. The Fund may seek to gain exposure to certain investments and pass-through entities through investments in the Cayman Subsidiary. Applicable treasury regulations generally treat the Fund's income inclusion with respect to the Cayman Subsidiary as qualifying income either if (A) there is a distribution out of the earnings and profits of the Cayman Subsidiary that are attributable to such income inclusion in the same tax year as the income inclusion or (B) such inclusion is derived with respect to the Fund's business of investing in stock, securities, or currencies. The tax treatment of the Fund's investments in the Cayman Subsidiary may be adversely affected by future legislation, court decisions, Treasury Regulations and/or guidance issued by the IRS that could affect whether income derived from such investments is "qualifying income" under Subchapter M of the Code, or otherwise affect the character, timing and/or amount of the Fund's taxable income or any gains and distributions made by the Fund. No assurances can be provided that the IRS would not be able to successfully assert that the Fund's income from such investments was not "qualifying income," in which case the Fund would fail to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code if over 10% of its gross income was derived from these investments. The Cayman Islands does not currently impose any income, corporate or capital gains tax, estate duty, inheritance tax, gift tax or withholding tax on the Cayman Subsidiary. If Cayman Islands law changes such that the Cayman Subsidiary must pay Cayman Islands taxes, Fund shareholders would likely suffer decreased investment returns.

Closed-end Interval Fund; Liquidity Risks. The Fund is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company structured as an "interval fund" and designed primarily for long-term investors. The Fund is not intended to be a typical traded investment. There is no secondary market for the Fund's Shares and the Fund expects that no secondary market will develop. An investor should not invest in the Fund if the investor needs a liquid investment. Closed-end funds differ from open-end management investment companies, commonly known as mutual funds, in that investors in a closed-end fund do not have the right to redeem their shares on a daily basis at a price based on NAV. Although the Fund, as a fundamental policy, will make quarterly offers to repurchase at least 5% and up to 25% of its outstanding Shares at NAV, the number of Shares tendered in connection with a repurchase offer may exceed the number of Shares the Fund has offered to repurchase, in which case not all of your Shares tendered in that offer will be repurchased. In connection with any given repurchase offer, it is expected the Fund will offer to repurchase only the minimum amount of 5% of its outstanding Shares. Hence, you may not be able to sell your Shares when and/or in the amount that you desire.

Cybersecurity Risks. As the use of Internet technology has become more prevalent in the course of business, funds have become more susceptible to potential operational risks through breaches in cyber security. A breach in cyber security refers to both intentional and unintentional events that may cause the Fund to lose proprietary information, suffer data corruption or lose operational capacity. Such events could cause the Fund to incur regulatory penalties, reputational damage, additional compliance costs associated with corrective measures and/or financial loss. Cyber security breaches may involve unauthorized access to the Fund's digital information systems through "hacking" or malicious software coding, but may also result from outside attacks such as denial-of-service attacks through efforts to make network services unavailable to intended users. In addition, cyber security breaches of the Fund's third-party service providers, such as its administrator, transfer agent or custodian, or issuers in which the Fund invests, can also subject the Fund to many of the same risks associated with direct cyber security breaches. While the Fund has established business continuity plans and risk management systems designed to reduce the risks associated with cyber security, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems. Additionally, there is no guarantee that such efforts will succeed, especially because the Fund does not directly control the cyber security systems of issuers or third-party service providers.

Distribution Payment Risk. The Fund cannot assure investors that the Fund will achieve investment results that will allow the Fund to make a specified level of cash distributions or year-to-year increases in cash distributions. All distributions will be paid at the discretion of the Board and may depend on the Fund's earnings, the Fund's net investment income, the Fund's financial condition, maintenance of the Fund's and the Fund's RIC status, compliance with applicable regulations and such other factors as the Board may deem relevant from time to time.

Investment Dilution Risk. The Fund's investors do not have preemptive rights to any Shares the Fund may issue in the future. The Fund's declaration of trust (the "Declaration of Trust") authorizes it to issue an unlimited number of Shares. The Board may amend the Declaration of Trust. After an investor purchases Shares, the Fund may sell additional Shares in the future or issue equity interests in private offerings. To the extent the Fund issues additional equity interests after an investor purchases Shares, such investor's percentage ownership interest in the Fund will be diluted.

Management Risk. The Fund is subject to management risk. In managing the Fund, the Adviser applies investment strategies, techniques and analyses in making investment decisions for the Fund, but there can be no guarantee that these actions will produce the intended results. The ability of the Adviser to successfully implement the Fund's investment strategies will significantly influence the Fund's performance. The success of the Fund will depend in part upon the skill and expertise of certain key personnel of the Adviser, and there can be no assurance that any such personnel will continue to be associated with the Fund.

Operational Risk. The Fund is exposed to operational risk arising from a number of factors, including but not limited to, human error, processing and communication errors, errors of the Fund's service providers, counterparties or other third parties, failed or inadequate processes and technology or system failures.

Risks Associated with the Fund Distribution Policy. The Fund intends to make annual distributions. The Fund will make a distribution only if authorized by the Board and declared by the Fund out of assets legally available for these distributions. This distribution policy may, under certain circumstances, have certain adverse consequences to the Fund and its shareholders because it may result in a return of capital, which would reduce the NAV of the common shares and, over time, potentially increase the Fund's expense ratio. If a distribution constitutes a return of capital, it means that the Fund is returning to shareholders a portion of their investment rather than making a distribution that is funded from the Fund's earned income or other profits. The Fund's distribution policy may be changed at any time by the Board.

There is a possibility that the Fund may make total distributions during a calendar or taxable year in an amount that exceeds the Fund's net investment company taxable income and net capital gains for the relevant taxable year. In such situations, if a distribution exceeds the Fund's current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes), a portion of each distribution paid with respect to such taxable year would generally be treated as a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes, thereby reducing the amount of a shareholder's tax basis in such shareholder's Fund Shares. When a shareholder sells Fund Shares, the amount, if any, by which the sales price exceeds the shareholder's tax basis in Fund Shares may be treated as a gain subject to tax. Because a return of capital reduces a shareholder's tax basis in Fund Shares, it generally will increase the amount of such shareholder's gain or decrease the amount of such shareholder's loss when such shareholder sells Fund Shares. To the extent that the amount of any return of capital distribution exceeds a shareholder's tax basis in Fund Shares, such excess generally will be treated as gain from a sale or exchange of the shares. As a result from such reduction in tax basis, Shareholders may be subject to tax in connection with the sale of Fund Shares, even if such Shares are sold at a loss relative to the Shareholder's original investment.

If the Fund elects to issue preferred shares and/or notes or other forms of indebtedness, its ability to make distributions to its common shareholders may be limited by the asset coverage requirements and other limitations imposed by the 1940 Act and the terms of the Fund's preferred shares, notes or other indebtedness.

Risks Relating to Fund's RIC Status. Although the Fund has elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, no assurance can be given that the Fund will be able to qualify for and maintain RIC status. If the Fund qualifies as a RIC under the Code, the Fund generally will not be subject to corporate-level federal income taxes on its income and capital gains that are timely distributed (or deemed distributed) as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to its shareholders. To qualify as a RIC under the Code and to be relieved of federal taxes on income and gains distributed as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the Fund's shareholders, the Fund must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income, asset diversification and distribution requirements. The distribution requirement for a RIC is satisfied if the Fund distributes dividends each tax year for U.S. federal income tax purposes of an amount generally at least equal to 90% of the sum of its net ordinary income and net short-term capital gains in excess of net long-term capital losses, if any, to the Fund's shareholders. If the Fund fails to qualify as a regulated investment company, it would be subject to federal and state income tax on all of its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates with no deduction for any distributions paid to shareholders, which would significantly adversely affect the returns to, and could cause substantial losses for, Fund shareholders.

Shares Not Listed; No Market for Shares. The Fund has been organized as a closed-end management investment company. Closed-end funds differ from open-end management investment companies (commonly known as mutual funds) because investors in a closed-end fund do not have the right to redeem their shares on a daily basis. Unlike many closed-end funds, which typically list their shares on a securities exchange, the Fund does not currently intend to list the Shares for trading on any securities exchange, and the Fund does not expect any secondary market to develop for the Shares in the foreseeable future. Therefore, an investment in the Fund, unlike an investment in a typical closed-end fund, is not a liquid investment.

MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND

Trustees

Pursuant to the Declaration of Trust and bylaws, the Fund's business and affairs are managed by the Adviser and subject to the oversight of the Board, which has overall responsibility for monitoring and overseeing the Fund's management and operations. The Board consists of four members, three of whom are considered Independent Trustees. The Trustees are elected by shareholders and are subject to removal or replacement in accordance with Delaware law and the Declaration of Trust. The Trustees serving on the Board were elected by the organizational Shareholder of the Fund. The Statement of Additional Information provides additional information about the Trustees.

ARK serves as the Fund's investment adviser pursuant to the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement and subject to the oversight of, and any Fund policies established by, the Board. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser manages the Fund's investment portfolio, direct purchases and sales of portfolio securities and reports thereon to the Fund's officers and Trustees regularly.

The Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, oversees and monitors the Fund's investment performance. The Board will review on an annual basis the Investment Advisory Agreement to determine, among other things, whether the fees payable under the agreement are reasonable in light of the services provided.

Adviser

ARK Investment Management LLC, located at 200 Central Avenue, Suite 220, St. Petersburg, Florida 33701, serves as the Fund's investment adviser under the Investment Advisory Agreement. The Adviser was formed in June 2013 and registered with the SEC in January 2014.

The Fund has entered into the Investment Advisory Agreement with ARK. The Investment Advisory Agreement provides that, in the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard for its obligations and duties thereunder, the Adviser is not liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss the Fund suffers.

In addition, the Fund bears other fees and expenses, which may vary and will affect the total expense ratio of the Fund, such as taxes and governmental fees, brokerage fees, commissions and other transaction expenses, certain foreign custodial fees and expenses, costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses, and extraordinary expenses (such as litigation and indemnification expenses).

A discussion regarding the Board's approval of the Advisory Agreement with respect to the Fund is available in the Fund's Annual Report.

Portfolio Manager

Catherine D. Wood serves as Chief Investment Officer of the Fund. Having completed 12 years at AllianceBernstein LP, Ms. Wood founded ARK Investment Management LLC and registered the firm with the SEC in January 2014. At AllianceBernstein LP, Ms. Wood was Chief Investment Officer of Global Thematic Strategies, with $5 billion in assets under management. Ms. Wood joined Alliance Capital in 2001 from Tupelo Capital Management. Prior to that, Ms. Wood worked for 18 years with Jennison Associates as Chief Economist, Equity Research Analyst, Portfolio Manager and Director. Ms. Wood received her B.S., summa cum laude, in Finance and Economics from the University of Southern California in 1981.

The SAI provides additional information about the portfolio manager's compensation, other accounts managed by the portfolio manager and the portfolio manager's ownership of securities.

Control Persons

A control person generally is a person who beneficially owns more than 25% of the voting securities of a company or has the power to exercise control over the management or policies of such company. To the knowledge of the Fund and except as noted below, as of October 31, 2024, no persons were deemed to control the Fund.

ARK Investment Management LLC has provided an initial investment in the Fund. For so long as ARK Investment Management LLC has a greater than 25% interest in the Fund, ARK Investment Management LLC may be deemed be a "control person" of the Fund for purposes of the 1940 Act.

Administrator, Custodian and Transfer Agent

The Fund and The Bank of New York Mellon ("Administrator"), located at 240 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10286, have entered into a fund administration and accounting agreement ("Administration Agreement"). Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator provides the Fund with administrative and fund accounting services, including providing certain operational, clerical, recordkeeping and/or bookkeeping services.

The Administration Agreement provides that the Administrator shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Fund in connection with the matters to which the Administration Agreement relates, except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Administrator in the performance of its duties or from reckless disregard by it of its duties and obligations thereunder.

The Fund pays the Administrator for its services under the Administration Agreement. In addition, the Fund bears the expense for certain administrative services that the Administrator provides and will reimburse the Administrator for the cost of such services. See "Fund Expenses" below.

The Bank of New York Mellon, located at 240 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10286, serves as the Fund's custodian ("Custodian") pursuant to a custody agreement between the Fund and the Custodian. As the Fund's custodian, the Custodian holds the Fund's assets. The Custodian may be reimbursed by the Fund for its out-of-pocket expenses.

BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc., located at 240 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10286, serves as the Fund's transfer agent ("Transfer Agent") pursuant to a transfer agency and service agreement.

Organization and Offering Costs

The Adviser has incurred the Fund's organizational costs and the initial offering costs associated with the Fund's continuous offering of Shares. Pursuant to the Expense Reimbursement Agreement between the Fund and the Adviser, the Fund is obligated to reimburse the Adviser for any such payments within three years of the Adviser incurring such expenses subject to the limitation that an Adviser Recoupment will be made only if and to the extent that: (i) the Fund's net assets exceed $125,000,000; and (ii) the Adviser Recoupment does not cause the Fund's net assets to fall below $125,000,000.

Shareholder Services Plan

The Fund pays to the Distributor a service fee, payable monthly in arrears, at the annual rate of 0.15% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. As used throughout this prospectus, "Service Fee" shall refer to the fee for personal and account maintenance services and expenses incurred by the Distributor in connection with the Shares. The Service Fee for any partial month will be appropriately prorated.

The Distributor may pay investment platforms and other intermediaries all or a portion of the Service Fee.

MANAGEMENT FEES

Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, and in consideration of the advisory services provided by the Adviser to the Fund, the Adviser is entitled to the Management Fee.

Management Fee

The Management Fee is calculated and payable monthly in arrears at the annual rate of 2.75% of the average daily value of the Fund's Net Assets. "Net Assets" means the total assets of the Fund minus the Fund's liabilities.

Approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement

The Investment Advisory Agreement was approved in accordance with, and on the basis of a review by the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, as required by Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder, including consideration of, among other factors, (i) the nature, quality and extent of the services to be provided by ARK under the Investment Advisory Agreement; (ii) the investment performance of ARK and related accounts; (iii) comparative information with respect to advisory fees and other expenses paid by other comparable investment companies; and (iv) information about the services to be performed by ARK and the personnel of ARK that will provide such services under the Advisory Agreement.

A discussion of the basis for the Board's approval of the Advisory Agreement can be found in the Fund's Annual Report.

DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE

The NAV per Share for the Fund is computed by dividing the value of the net assets of the Fund (i.e., the value of its total assets less total liabilities) by the total number of Shares outstanding. Expenses and fees, including the Management Fee, are accrued daily and taken into account for purposes of determining NAV. The NAV of the Fund is determined each business day as of the close of trading (ordinarily 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange. Any assets or liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted into U.S. dollars at the current market rates on the date of valuation as quoted by one or more sources.

The values of the Fund's portfolio securities will be based on market prices if readily available. A market quotation is readily available only when that quotation is a quoted price (unadjusted) in active markets for identical investments that the Fund can access at the measurement date, provided that a quotation will not be readily available if it is not reliable. Price information on listed securities will be taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. With respect to portfolio securities that do not have readily available market quotations, or where such market quotations are not reliable, and with respect to portfolio instruments that are not securities, the Board has designated the Adviser as valuation designee ("Valuation Designee") pursuant to Rule 2a-5(b) to perform the fair value determination relating to all such Fund investments. In its role as Valuation Designee, the Adviser is responsible for, among other things, carrying out the functions and Board reporting obligations set forth in Rule 2a-5.

If a market quotation for a security is not readily available (as is generally the case with private companies) or the Adviser believes it does not otherwise accurately reflect the market value of the security at the time the Fund calculates its NAV, the security will be fair valued by the Adviser in accordance with the Valuation Procedure approved by the Board. As a general principle, the fair value of a security or other asset is 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. If the Valuation Designee determines that fair valuation would be appropriate and would result in a measurement that is equally or more representative of fair value or is required, the Valuation Designee may value the security or asset based on its consideration of one or more of a proscribed set of factors, to the extent relevant and available under the circumstance. The Valuation Designee's policies and procedures govern the Valuation Designee's selection and application of methodologies for determining and calculating the fair value of Fund investments. Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments and it is possible that a fair value determination for a security may be materially different than the value that could be realized upon the sale of the security.

In considering whether fair valuation is required and in determining fair values, the Valuation Designee may, among other things, consider significant events (which may be considered to include changes in the value of U.S. securities or securities indexes) that occur after the close of the relevant market and before the New York Stock Exchange close. A significant event is an event that will, with a reasonably high probability, materially affect the value of a security since the closing price of the security was established on an exchange or market, but before the Fund's NAV calculation. Significant events may relate to a single issuer, multiple issuers or to an entire market sector. Significant events generally would be those that are readily ascertainable in the ordinary course of business.

The Valuation Designee may also utilize one or more Pricing Services to assist in determining a fair value for a security or asset, and may obtain the assistance of others, including, without limitation, the Fund's accounting agent and an outside independent pricing services in fulfilling its responsibilities. Prices obtained by an outside independent pricing service will use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from data related to investments or securities with similar characteristics. For assets such as exchange-traded options, the Fund will determine market values based upon quotations from exchanges and/or market makers.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

The Adviser has a fiduciary duty to act in the best of interest of its clients, to treat all clients equitably, and to disclose all material facts, including potential conflicts of interest. Potential conflicts of interest may arise from time to time between a portfolio manager's management of the investments of the Fund, on the one hand, and the management of other accounts, on the other ("side-by-side management"). Since the Adviser manages accounts other than the Fund, its duty of loyalty to one client may at times conflict with its duty of loyalty to another client, particularly with respect to allocating trades. Other accounts managed by the Adviser's portfolio manager might have similar investment objectives or strategies as the Fund or otherwise hold, purchase, or sell securities that are eligible to be held, purchased or sold by the Fund. The other accounts might also have different investment objectives or strategies than the Fund. Based on this relationship, the potential conflicts of interest that may arise from the Adviser's side-by-side management of the Fund and other accounts include: limitation of trading based on the Adviser's knowledge of Fund and/or other account trading; inability to take advantage of certain investment opportunities; possibility of contrary positions amongst the Fund and other accounts; issues related to aggregation and allocation of trades; and potential exposure to soft dollars.

To address and mitigate the potential conflicts of interest referenced above, the Adviser has adopted and implemented written policies and procedures to provide for fair and equitable treatment of all its clients. These policies and procedures include: aggregation and allocation of trades; insider trading; side-by-side management; soft dollars; and portfolio management/trading. Also, the Adviser has adopted and implemented a Code of Ethics that prohibits Adviser employees and "access persons" (as defined by the Advisers Act) from engaging in prohibited personal securities transactions and fraudulent behavior such as insider-trading. According to its policies and procedures, the Adviser, among other things, must:

1.	Treat each client fairly as to the securities purchased or sold for its account.

2.	Treat each client fairly with respect to priority of execution of orders.

3.	Treat each client fairly in the aggregation and allocation of investment opportunities.

4.	Review and affirm that all client trading is in compliance with each client's investment objective.

5.	Fully disclose the nature and extent of a conflict of interest prior to the transaction, including any direct or indirect compensation the Adviser receives in connection with the transaction.

6.	Have a reasonable belief that the investment is in the client's best interest; and

7.	Ensure compliance with any relevant procedures set forth in the Adviser's Code of Ethics.

Finally, the Adviser has a designated CCO who is responsible for administering the Adviser's policies and procedures, which includes regular reviews of the adequacy of the Adviser's compliance program, and regular reports thereon to senior management and the Fund's Board.

SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

The Fund does not currently intend to list its Shares on any securities exchange and does not expect any secondary market for them to develop in the foreseeable future. Therefore, Shareholders should expect that they will be unable to sell their Shares for an indefinite time or at a desired price. No Shareholder will have the right to require the Fund to repurchase such Shareholder's Shares or any portion thereof. Shareholders may not exchange their shares of the Fund for shares of any other registered investment company. Because no public market exists for the Shares, and none is expected to develop in the foreseeable future, Shareholders will not be able to liquidate their investment, other than through the Fund's share repurchase program, or, in limited circumstances, as a result of transfers of Shares to other investors. Thus, the Shares are appropriate only as a long-term investment. In addition, the Fund's repurchase offers may subject the Fund and Shareholders to special risks.

To provide Shareholders with limited liquidity, the Fund is structured as an "interval fund" and intends to conduct quarterly offers to repurchase between 5% and 25% of its outstanding Shares at NAV, pursuant to Rule 23c-3 under the 1940 Act, unless such offer is suspended or postponed in accordance with regulatory requirements (as discussed below). In connection with any given repurchase offer, it is expected that the Fund will offer to repurchase only the minimum amount of 5% of its outstanding Shares. Quarterly repurchases occur in the months of March, June, September and December. The offer to purchase Shares on a quarterly basis is a fundamental policy that may not be changed without the vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting securities (as defined in the 1940 Act). The Repurchase Offer Notice is sent to Shareholders at least 21 calendar days and no more than 42 calendar days before the Repurchase Request Deadline. The Fund expects to determine the NAV applicable to repurchases on the Repurchase Request Deadline. However, the NAV will be calculated no later than the Repurchase Pricing Date, although the NAV is expected to be determined on the Repurchase Request Deadline. The Fund expects to distribute payment to Shareholders between one and three business days after the Repurchase Pricing Date and will distribute such payment no later than seven calendar days after such Date.

The Fund also has the right to repurchase all of a shareholder's Shares at any time if the aggregate value of such shareholder's Shares is, at the time of such compulsory repurchase, less than the minimum initial investment applicable for the Fund.

Determination of Repurchase Offer Amount

The Board, or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion, will determine the number of Shares that the Fund will offer to repurchase (the "Repurchase Offer Amount") for a given Repurchase Request Deadline. The Repurchase Offer Amount, however, will be no less than 5% and no more than 25% of the total number of Shares outstanding on the Repurchase Request Deadline.

If Shareholders tender for repurchase more than the Repurchase Offer Amount for a given repurchase offer, the Fund will repurchase the Shares on a pro rata basis. However, the Fund may accept all Shares tendered for repurchase by Shareholders who own less than one hundred Shares and who tender all of their Shares, before prorating other amounts tendered.

Notice to Shareholders

No less than 21 days and more than 42 days before each Repurchase Request Deadline, the Fund shall send to each Shareholder of record and to each beneficial owner of the Shares that are the subject of the repurchase offer a notification ("Shareholder Notification"). The Shareholder Notification will contain information Shareholders should consider in deciding whether to tender their Shares for repurchase. The notice also will include detailed instructions on how to tender shares for repurchase, state the Repurchase Offer Amount and identify the dates of the Repurchase Request Deadline, the scheduled Repurchase Pricing Date, and the date the repurchase proceeds are scheduled for payment (the "Repurchase Payment Deadline"). The notice also will set forth the NAV that has been computed no more than seven days before the date of notification, and how Shareholders may ascertain the NAV after the notification date.

Repurchase Price

The repurchase price of the shares will be the NAV of the share class as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on the Repurchase Pricing Date. You may call 888-511-2347 to learn the NAV. The notice of the repurchase offer also will provide information concerning the NAV, such as the NAV as of a recent date or a sampling of recent NAVs, and a toll-free number for information regarding the repurchase offer.

Repurchase Amounts and Payment of Proceeds

Shares tendered for repurchase by shareholders prior to any Repurchase Request Deadline will be repurchased subject to the aggregate Repurchase Offer Amount established for that Repurchase Request Deadline. Payment pursuant to the repurchase offer will be made by check to the Shareholder's address of record, or credited directly to a predetermined bank account on the Purchase Payment Date, which will be no more than seven days after the Repurchase Pricing Date. The Board may establish other policies for repurchases of shares that are consistent with the 1940 Act, regulations thereunder and other pertinent laws.

If Shareholders tender for repurchase more than the Repurchase Offer Amount for a given repurchase offer, the Fund may, but is not required to, repurchase an additional amount of Shares not to exceed 2.00% of the outstanding Shares of the Fund on the Repurchase Request Deadline. If the Fund determines not to repurchase more than the Repurchase Offer Amount, or if Shareholders tender shares in an amount exceeding the Repurchase Offer Amount plus 2.00% of the outstanding Shares on the Repurchase Request Deadline, the Fund will repurchase the Shares on a pro rata basis. However, the Fund may accept all Shares tendered for repurchase by Shareholders who own less than one hundred Shares and who tender all of their Shares, before prorating other amounts tendered.

With respect to any required minimum distributions from an IRA or other qualified retirement plan in which Shares are held, it is the obligation of the shareholder to determine the amount of any such required minimum distribution and to otherwise satisfy the required minimum. In the event that shareholders tender for repurchase more than the Repurchase Offer Amount for a given repurchase offer, the Fund will repurchase the shares on a pro rata basis, which may result in the Fund not repurchasing the full amount of a required minimum distribution requested by a shareholder.

Suspension or Postponement of Repurchase Offers

The Fund may postpone or suspend Repurchase Offers. A postponement or suspension may occur only if approved by a vote of a majority of the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees. A suspension or postponement may be done only in limited circumstances. These circumstances include the following:

●	During any period in which the New York Stock Exchange or any other market on which the Fund's portfolio securities are traded is closed, other than customary weekend and holiday closings, or trading in those markets is restricted;

●	During an emergency that makes it impractical for the Fund to dispose of securities it owns or determine the NAV of Fund Shares;

●	If the repurchase would cause the Fund to lose its status as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code; or

●	During other periods as the SEC permits the suspension or postponement of offers by the Fund for the protection of its shareholders.

If a Repurchase Offer is suspended or postponed, the Fund will provide notice of the suspension or postponement to each Shareholder of the Fund. If the Fund renews the Repurchase Offer, the Fund will send a new notification to each Shareholder with details concerning the terms and conditions of the renewed Repurchase Offer.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STRUCTURE

The following description is based on relevant portions of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, as amended, and on the Fund's Declaration of Trust and bylaws. This summary is not intended to be complete. Please refer to the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, as amended, and the Declaration of Trust and bylaws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, for a more detailed description of the provisions summarized below.

Shares of Beneficial Interest

The Declaration of Trust authorizes the Fund's issuance of an unlimited number of Shares of beneficial interest of each class, no par value per share. Pursuant to the Declaration of Trust and as permitted by Delaware law, Shareholders are entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to stockholders of private corporations organized for profit under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended (the "DGCL") and therefore generally will not be personally liable for the Fund's debts or obligations.

The following table sets forth information about the Fund's outstanding Shares as of October 31, 2024:

Title of Class		Amount Authorized			Amount Held by the Fund or for its Account			Amount Outstanding Exclusive of Amount Held by the Fund or for its Account
Common shares of beneficial interest, no par value per share		Unlimited			None			2,565,303

Shares

Under the terms of the Declaration of Trust, all Shares, when consideration for Shares is received by the Fund, will be fully paid and nonassessable. Distributions may be paid to Shareholders if, as and when authorized and declared by the Board. Shares will have no preference, preemptive, appraisal, conversion or redemption rights, and will be freely transferable, except where their transfer is restricted by law or contract. The Declaration of Trust provides that the Board shall have the power to repurchase or redeem Shares. In the event of the Fund's dissolution, after the Fund pays or adequately provides for the payment of all claims and obligations of the Fund, and upon the receipt of such releases, indemnities and refunding agreements deemed necessary by the Board, each Share will be entitled to receive, according to its respective rights, a pro rata portion of the Fund's assets available for distribution, subject to any preferential rights of holders of the Fund's outstanding preferred Shares, if any. Each whole Share will be entitled to one vote as to any matter on which it is entitled to vote and each fractional Share will be entitled to a proportionate fractional vote. Shareholders shall be entitled to vote on all matters on which a vote of Shareholders is required by the 1940 Act, the Declaration of Trust or a resolution of the Board. There will be no cumulative voting in the election or removal of Trustees. Under the Declaration of Trust, the Fund is not required to hold annual meetings of Shareholders. The Fund only expects to hold Shareholder meetings to the extent required by the 1940 Act or pursuant to special meetings called by the Board or a majority of Shareholders.

Preferred Shares and Other Securities

The Declaration of Trust provides that the Board may, subject to the Fund's investment policies and restrictions and the requirements of the 1940 Act, authorize and cause the Fund to issue securities of the Fund other than Shares (including preferred Shares, debt securities or other senior securities), by action of the Board without the approval of Shareholders. The Board may determine the terms, rights, preferences, privileges, limitations and restrictions of such securities as the Board sees fit.

Preferred Shares could be issued with rights and preferences that would adversely affect Shareholders. Preferred Shares could also be used as an anti-takeover device. Every issuance of preferred Shares will be required to comply with the requirements of the 1940 Act. The 1940 Act requires, among other things, that (i) immediately after issuance of preferred Shares and before any distribution is made with respect to the Shares and before any purchase of Shares is made, the aggregate involuntary liquidation preference of such preferred Shares together with the aggregate involuntary liquidation preference or aggregate value of all other senior securities must not exceed an amount equal to 50% of the Fund's total assets after deducting the amount of such distribution or purchase price, as the case may be; and (ii) the holders of preferred Shares, if any are issued, must be entitled as a class to elect two Trustees at all times and to elect a majority of the Trustees if distributions on such preferred Shares are in arrears by two years or more. Certain matters under the 1940 Act require the separate vote of the holders of any issued and outstanding preferred Shares.

Limitation on Liability of Trustees and Officers; Indemnification and Advance of Expenses

Pursuant to the Declaration of Trust, Trustees and officers of the Fund will not be subject in such capacity to any personal liability to the Fund or Shareholders, unless the liability arises from bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard for the Trustee's or officer's duty.

Except as otherwise provided in the Declaration of Trust, the Fund will indemnify and hold harmless any current or former Trustee or officer of the Fund against any liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees relating to the defense or disposition of any action, suit or proceeding with which such person is involved or threatened), while and with respect to acting in the capacity of a Trustee or officer of the Fund, except with respect to matters in which such person did not act in good faith in the reasonable belief that his or her action was in the best interest of the Fund, or in the case of a criminal proceeding, matters for which such person had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. In accordance with the 1940 Act, the Fund will not indemnify any Trustee or officer for any liability to which such person would be subject by reason of his or her willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties of his or her position. The Fund will provide indemnification to Trustees and officers prior to a final determination regarding entitlement to indemnification as described in the Declaration of Trust.

Pursuant to the Declaration of Trust, the Fund will advance the expenses of defending any action for which indemnification is sought if the Fund receives a written undertaking by the indemnitee which provides that the indemnitee will reimburse the Fund unless it is subsequently determined that the indemnitee is entitled to such indemnification.

Number of Trustees; Appointment of Trustees; Vacancies; Removal

The Declaration of Trust provides that the number of Trustees shall be determined by a majority of the Trustees then in office. As set forth in the Declaration of Trust, a Trustee's term of office shall continue until the earlier of the election of his or her successor, or his or her death, resignation or removal. Subject to the provisions of the 1940 Act, individuals may be appointed by the Trustees at any time to fill vacancies on the Board by the appointment of such persons by a majority of the Trustees then in office. To the extent that the 1940 Act requires that Trustees be elected by Shareholders, any such Trustees will be elected by a plurality of all Shares voted at a meeting of Shareholders at which a quorum is present.

The Declaration of Trust provides that any Trustee may be removed (provided that after the removal the aggregate number of Trustees is not less than the minimum required by the Declaration of Trust) with or without cause at any time by a written instrument signed by at least two-thirds (2/3) of the remaining Trustees or at a meeting by action of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the remaining Trustees.

Action by Shareholders

Subject to the 1940 Act, the Declaration of Trust or a resolution of the Board specifying a greater or lesser vote requirement, the affirmative vote of a majority of Shares present in person or represented by proxy at a meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the Shareholders with respect to any matter submitted to a vote of the Shareholders. The Board may, in its sole discretion, determine that a meeting of Shareholders may be held solely by means of remote communication. If authorized by the Board, in its sole discretion, and subject to such guidelines and procedures as the Board may adopt, Shareholders and proxyholders not physically present at a meeting of Shareholders may, by means of remote communication: (i) participate in a meeting of Shareholders; and (ii) be deemed present in person and vote at a meeting of Shareholders whether such meeting is to be held at a designated place or solely by means of remote communication, provided that certain conditions are met.

Amendment of Declaration of Trust and Bylaws

Subject to the provisions of the 1940 Act, pursuant to the Declaration of Trust, the Board may amend the Declaration of Trust without any vote of Shareholders. Pursuant to the Declaration of Trust and bylaws, the Board has the exclusive power to amend or repeal the bylaws or adopt new bylaws at any time.

No Appraisal Rights

In certain extraordinary transactions, some jurisdictions provide the right to dissenting Shareholders to demand and receive the fair value of their Shares, subject to certain procedures and requirements set forth in such statute. Those rights are commonly referred to as appraisal rights. The Declaration of Trust provides that Shares shall not entitle Shareholders to appraisal rights.

Conflict with Applicable Laws and Regulations

The Declaration of Trust provides that if and to the extent that any provision of the Declaration of Trust conflicts with any provision of the 1940 Act, the provisions under the Code applicable to the Fund as a RIC or other applicable laws and regulations, the conflicting provision shall be deemed never to have constituted a part of the Declaration of Trust; provided, however, that such determination shall not affect any of the remaining provisions of the Declaration of Trust or affect the validity of any action taken or omitted to be taken prior to such determination.

TAX ASPECTS

The following is a general summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to the Fund and an investment in the Fund. The discussion below provides general tax information related to an investment in the Fund, but does not purport to be a complete description of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Fund and does not address any state, local, non-U.S. or other tax consequences. It is based on the Code and U.S. Treasury regulations thereunder and administrative pronouncements, all as of the date hereof, any of which is subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. In addition, it does not describe all of the tax consequences that may be relevant in light of a Shareholder's particular circumstances, including (but not limited to) alternative minimum tax consequences and tax consequences applicable to Shareholders subject to special tax rules, such as certain financial institutions; dealers or traders in securities who use a mark-to-market method of tax accounting; persons holding Shares as part of a hedging transaction, wash sale, conversion transaction or integrated transaction or persons entering into a constructive sale with respect to Shares; entities classified as partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes; insurance companies; U.S. Shareholders (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar; or tax-exempt entities, including "individual retirement accounts" or "Roth IRAs." Unless otherwise noted, the following discussion applies only to a Shareholder that holds Shares as a capital asset and is a U.S. Shareholder. A "U.S. Shareholder" generally is a beneficial owner of Shares who is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

●	an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

●	a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

●	an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

●

a trust if it (a) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (b) has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

If a partnership (including an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds Shares, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A prospective Shareholder that is a partner in a partnership holding Shares should consult his, her or its tax advisors with respect to the purchase, ownership and disposition of Shares.

The discussion set forth herein does not constitute tax advice. Tax laws are complex and often change, and Shareholders should consult their tax advisors about the U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. tax consequences of an investment in the Fund.

Taxation of the Fund

The Fund has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a RIC, the Fund generally will not be subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes as dividends to Shareholders. To qualify as a RIC in any tax year, the Fund must, among other things, satisfy both a source of income test and asset diversification tests. The Fund will qualify as a RIC if (i) at least 90% of the Fund's gross income for such tax year consists of dividends; interest; payments with respect to certain securities loans; gains from the sale or other disposition of shares, securities or foreign currencies; other income (including, but not limited to, gains from options, futures or forward contracts) derived with respect to its business of investing in such shares, securities or currencies; and net income derived from interests in "qualified publicly-traded partnerships" (such income, "Qualifying RIC Income"); and (ii) the Fund's holdings are diversified so that, at the end of each quarter of such tax year, (a) at least 50% of the value of the Fund's total assets is represented by cash and cash equivalents, securities of other RICs, U.S. government securities and other securities, with such other securities limited, in respect of any one issuer, to an amount not greater than 5% of the value of the Fund's total assets and not greater than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer and (b) not more than 25% of the value of the Fund's total assets is invested (x) in securities (other than U.S. government securities or securities of other RICs) of any one issuer or of two or more issuers that the Fund controls and that are engaged in the same, similar or related trades or businesses or (y) in the securities of one or more "qualified publicly-traded partnerships." The Fund's share of income derived from a partnership other than a "qualified publicly-traded partnership" will be treated as Qualifying RIC Income only to the extent that such income would have constituted Qualifying RIC Income if derived directly by the Fund. A "qualified publicly-traded partnership" is generally defined as an entity that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes if (1) interests in such entity are traded on an established securities market or are readily tradable on a secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof and (2) less than 90% of its gross income for the relevant tax year consists of Qualifying RIC Income. The Code provides that the Treasury Department may by regulation exclude from Qualifying RIC Income foreign currency gains that are not directly related to the RIC's principal business of investing in shares or securities (or options and futures with respect to shares or securities). The Fund anticipates that, in general, its foreign currency gains will be directly related to its principal business of investing in shares and securities.

The Fund may pursue its investment objective by investing up to 25% of its total assets in one or more Taxable Subsidiaries or a Cayman Subsidiary, each of which will be taxable as a corporation of U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Subsidiaries would hold certain investments or interests in pass-through entities (such as GBTC and certain Private Funds).

With respect to the Cayman Subsidiary, applicable treasury regulations generally treat the Fund's income inclusion with respect to the Cayman Subsidiary as qualifying income either if (A) there is a distribution out of the earnings and profits of the Cayman Subsidiary that are attributable to such income inclusion in the same tax year as the income inclusion or (B) such inclusion is derived with respect to the Fund's business of investing in stock, securities, or currencies. The Fund intends to treat its income from the Cayman Subsidiary as qualifying income. No assurances can be provided that the IRS would not be able to successfully assert that the Fund's income from such investments was not "qualifying income," in which case the Fund would fail to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code if over 10% of its gross income was derived from these investments. If the Fund failed to qualify as a regulated investment company, it would be subject to federal and state income tax on all of its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates with no deduction for any distributions paid to shareholders, which would significantly adversely affect the returns to, and could cause substantial losses for, Fund shareholders.

A foreign corporation, such as the Cayman Subsidiary, will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income taxation unless it is deemed to be engaged in a U.S. trade or business. The rules regarding whether the Cayman Subsidiary will be treated as engaged in a U.S. trade or business as a result of its bitcoin related investments are not certain. It is expected that each Cayman Subsidiary will conduct its activities in a manner so as to meet the requirements of a safe harbor under Section 864(b)(2) of the Code under which the Cayman Subsidiary may engage in trading in stocks or securities or certain commodities without being deemed to be engaged in a U.S. trade or business. However, if certain of the Cayman Subsidiary's activities were determined not to be of the type described in the safe harbor, then the activities of the Cayman Subsidiary may constitute a U.S. trade or business, or be taxed as such. In general, a foreign corporation, such as the Cayman Subsidiary, that does not conduct a U.S. trade or business is nonetheless subject to tax at a flat rate of 30 percent (or lower tax treaty rate), generally payable through withholding, on the gross amount of certain U.S.-source income that is not effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business. There is presently no tax treaty in force between the U.S. and the Cayman Islands that would reduce this rate of withholding tax.

The Cayman Subsidiary will be treated as a controlled foreign corporation and the Fund will be treated as a "U.S. shareholder" of the Cayman Subsidiary. As a result, the Fund will be required to include in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes all of the Cayman Subsidiary's "Subpart F income," and Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income, if any, whether or not such income is distributed by the Cayman Subsidiary. It is expected that all of the Cayman Subsidiary's income will be "Subpart F income." The Fund's recognition of the Cayman Subsidiary's "Subpart F income" will increase the Fund's tax basis in its Cayman Subsidiary. Distributions by the Cayman Subsidiary to the Fund will be tax-free, to the extent of previously undistributed "Subpart F income," and will correspondingly reduce the Fund's tax basis in the Cayman Subsidiary. "Subpart F income" is generally treated as ordinary income, regardless of the character of the Cayman Subsidiary's underlying income. If a net loss is realized by the Cayman Subsidiary, such loss is not generally available to offset the income earned by the Fund, and such loss cannot be carried forward to offset taxable income of the Fund or the Cayman Subsidiary in future periods.

A Taxable Subsidiary generally will be required to incur entity-level income taxes on its earnings, which ultimately will reduce the return to Shareholders.

In addition, to maintain RIC tax treatment, the Fund must distribute on a timely basis with respect to each tax year dividends of an amount at least equal to 90% of the sum of its "investment company taxable income" and its net tax-exempt interest income, determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid, to Shareholders (the "90% distribution requirement"). If the Fund qualifies as a RIC and satisfies the 90% distribution requirement, the Fund generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its "investment company taxable income" and net capital gains (that is, the excess of net long-term capital gains over net short-term capital losses) that it distributes as dividends to Shareholders (including amounts that are reinvested pursuant to the DRP). In general, a RIC's "investment company taxable income" for any tax year is its taxable income, determined without regard to net capital gains and with certain other adjustments. The Fund intends to distribute all or substantially all of its "investment company taxable income," net tax-exempt interest income (if any) and net capital gains on an annual basis. Any taxable income, including any net capital gains that the Fund does not distribute in a timely manner, will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at regular corporate rates.

If the Fund retains any net capital gains for reinvestment, it may elect to treat such capital gains as having been distributed to Shareholders. If the Fund makes such an election, each Shareholder will be required to report its share of such undistributed net capital gains attributed to the Fund as long-term capital gain and will be entitled to claim its share of the U.S. federal income taxes paid by the Fund on such undistributed net capital gains as a credit against its own U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, and to claim a refund on a properly-filed U.S. federal income tax return to the extent that the credit exceeds such liability. In addition, each Shareholder will be entitled to increase the adjusted tax basis of its Shares by the difference between its share of such undistributed net capital gain and the related credit. There can be no assurance that the Fund will make this election if it retains all or a portion of its net capital gain for a tax year.

As a RIC, the Fund will be, subject to a nondeductible 4% federal excise tax on certain undistributed amounts for each calendar year (the "4% excise tax"). To avoid the 4% excise tax, the Fund must distribute in respect of each calendar year dividends of an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of its ordinary taxable income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for the calendar year, (2) 98.2% of its capital gain net income (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) generally for the one-year period ending on October 31 of the calendar year and (3) any ordinary income and capital gains for previous calendar years that were not distributed during those calendar years. For purposes of determining whether the Fund has met this distribution requirement, the Fund will be deemed to have distributed any income or gains previously subject to U.S. federal income tax. Furthermore, any distribution declared by the Fund in October, November or December of any calendar year, payable to Shareholders, of record on a specified date in such a month and actually paid during January of the following calendar year, will be treated for tax purposes as if it had been paid on December 31 of the calendar year in which the distribution was declared. The Fund generally intends to avoid the imposition of the 4% excise tax, but there can be no assurance in this regard.

If the Fund fails to qualify as a RIC or fails to satisfy the 90% distribution requirement in respect of any tax year, the Fund would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at regular corporate rates on its taxable income, including its net capital gains, even if such income were distributed, and all distributions out of earnings and profits would be taxed as ordinary dividend income. Such distributions generally would be eligible for the dividends-received deduction in the case of certain corporate Shareholders and may be eligible to be qualified dividend income in the case of certain non-corporate Shareholders. In addition, the Fund could be required to recognize unrealized gains, pay taxes and make distributions (any of which could be subject to interest charges) before re-qualifying for taxation as a RIC. If the Fund fails to satisfy either the income test or asset diversification test described above, in certain cases, however, the Fund may be able to avoid losing its status as a RIC by timely providing notice of such failure to the IRS, curing such failure and possibly paying an additional tax or penalty.

Some of the investments that the Fund is expected to make, such as investments in debt instruments having market discount and/or treated as issued with OID, may cause the Fund to recognize income or gain for U.S. federal income tax purposes prior to the receipt of any corresponding cash or other property. As a result, the Fund may have difficulty meeting the 90% distribution requirement necessary to maintain RIC tax treatment. Because this income will be included in the Fund's investment company taxable income for the tax year it is accrued, the Fund may be required to make a distribution to Shareholders to meet the distribution requirements described above, even though the Fund will not have received any corresponding cash or property. The Fund may be required to borrow money, dispose of other securities or forgo new investment opportunities for this purpose.

There may be uncertainty as to the appropriate treatment of certain of the Fund's investments for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In particular, the Fund expects to invest a portion of its net assets in below investment grade instruments. U.S. federal income tax rules with respect to such instruments are not entirely clear about issues such as whether and to what extent the Fund should recognize interest, OID or market discount, when and to what extent deductions may be taken for bad debts or worthless instruments, how payments received on obligations in default should be allocated between principal and income and whether exchanges of debt obligations in a bankruptcy or workout context are taxable. These and other issues will be addressed by the Fund, to the extent necessary, in connection with the Fund's general intention to distribute sufficient income to qualify, and maintain its qualification to be subject to tax as a RIC and to minimize the risk that it becomes subject to U.S. federal income or excise tax.

Income received by the Fund from sources outside the United States may be subject to withholding and other taxes imposed by such countries, thereby reducing income available to the Fund. Tax conventions between certain countries and the United States may reduce or eliminate such taxes. The Fund generally intends to conduct its investment activities to minimize the impact of foreign taxation, but there is no guarantee that the Fund will be successful in this regard. If more than 50% of the value of the Fund's total assets at the close of its tax year consists of securities of foreign corporations, the Fund will be eligible to elect to "pass-through" to the Shareholders the foreign source amount of income deemed earned and the respective amount of foreign taxes paid by the Fund. If at least 50% of the value of the Fund's total assets at the close of each quarter of its tax year is represented by interests in other RICs, the Fund may elect to "pass-through" to Shareholders the foreign source amount of income deemed earned and the respective amount of foreign taxes paid or deemed paid by the Fund. If the Fund so elects, each Shareholder would be required to include in gross income, even though not actually received, each Shareholder's pro rata share of the foreign taxes paid or deemed paid by the Fund, but would be treated as having paid its pro rata share of such foreign taxes and would therefore be allowed to either deduct such amount in computing taxable income or use such amount (subject to various limitations) as a foreign tax credit against federal income tax (but not both).

The Fund may invest in shares of foreign companies that are classified under the Code as passive foreign investment companies ("PFICs"). In general, a foreign company is considered a PFIC if at least 50% of its assets constitute investment-type assets or 75% or more of its gross income is investment-type income. In general, under the PFIC rules, an "excess distribution" received with respect to PFIC shares is treated as having been realized ratably over the period during which the Fund held the PFIC shares. The Fund generally will be subject to tax on the portion, if any, of the excess distribution that is allocated to the Fund's holding period in prior tax years (and an interest factor will be added to the tax, as if the tax had actually been payable in such prior tax years) even though the Fund distributes the corresponding income to Shareholders. Excess distributions include any gain from the sale of PFIC shares as well as certain distributions from a PFIC. All excess distributions are taxable as ordinary income.

The Fund may be eligible to elect alternative tax treatment with respect to PFIC shares. Under one such election (i.e., a "QEF" election), the Fund generally would be required to include in its gross income its share of the earnings of a PFIC on a current basis, regardless of whether any distributions are received from the PFIC. If this election is made, the special rules, discussed above, relating to the taxation of excess distributions, would not apply. Furthermore, under U.S. Treasury Regulations, certain income derived by the Fund from a PFIC with respect to which the Fund has made a QEF election would generally constitute qualifying income for purposes of determining the Fund's ability to be subject to tax as a RIC to the extent the PFIC makes distributions of that income to the Fund or if the income was derived with respect to the Fund's business of investing. Alternatively, the Fund may be able to elect to mark its PFIC shares to market, resulting in any unrealized gains at the Fund's tax year end being treated as though they were recognized and reported as ordinary income. Any mark-to-market losses and any loss from an actual disposition of the PFIC's Shares would be deductible as ordinary losses to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains included in income in prior tax years with respect to shares in the same PFIC.

Because the application of the PFIC rules may affect, among other things, the character of gains, the amount of gain or loss and the timing of the recognition of income, gain or loss with respect to PFIC shares, as well as subject the Fund itself to tax on certain income from PFIC shares, the amount that must be distributed to Fund Shareholders, and which will be recognized by Fund Shareholders as ordinary income or long-term capital gain, may be increased or decreased substantially as compared to a fund that did not invest in PFIC shares. Note that distributions from a PFIC are not eligible for the reduced rate of tax on distributions of "qualified dividend income" as discussed below.

Some of the CLOs in which the Fund invests may be PFICs, which are generally subject to the tax consequences described above. Investment in certain equity interests of CLOs that are subject to treatment as PFICs for U.S. federal income tax purposes may cause the Fund to recognize income in a tax year in excess of the Fund's distributions from such CLOs, PFICs and the Fund's proceeds from sales or other dispositions of equity interests in other CLOs and other PFICs during that tax year. As a result, the Fund generally would be required to distribute such income to satisfy the distribution requirements applicable to RICs.

If the Fund holds more than 10% of the interests treated as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes in a foreign corporation that is treated as a controlled foreign corporation ("CFC"), including equity tranche investments and certain debt tranche investments in a CLO treated as CFC, the Fund may be treated as receiving a deemed distribution (taxable as ordinary income) each tax year from such foreign corporation of an amount equal to the Fund's pro rata share of the foreign corporation's earnings for such tax year (including both ordinary earnings and capital gains), whether or not the corporation makes an actual distribution to the Fund during such tax year. This deemed distribution is required to be included in the income of certain U.S. shareholders of a CFC, such as the Fund, regardless of whether a U.S. shareholder has made a QEF election with respect to such CFC. The Fund is generally required to distribute such income in order to satisfy the distribution requirements applicable to RICs, even to the extent the Fund's income from a CFC exceeds the distributions from the CFC and the Fund's proceeds from the sales or other dispositions of CFC stock during that tax year. As such, the Fund may limit and/or manage its holdings in issuers that could be treated as CFCs in order to ensure the Fund's continued qualification as a RIC and/or maximize the Fund's after-tax return from these investments. In general, a foreign corporation will be treated as a CFC for U.S. federal income tax purposes if more than 50% of the shares of the foreign corporation, measured by reference to combined voting power or value, is owned (directly, indirectly or by attribution) by U.S. Shareholders. A "U.S. Shareholder," for this purpose, is any U.S. person that possesses (actually or constructively) 10% or more of the combined voting power or value of all classes of shares of a corporation.

The functional currency of the Fund, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is the U.S. dollar. Gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates that occur between the time a Fund accrues interest income or other receivables or accrues expenses or other liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and the time the Fund actually collects such receivables or pays such liabilities generally are respectively characterized as ordinary income or ordinary loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Similarly, on the sale of other disposition of certain investments, including debt securities, certain forward contracts, as well as other derivative financial instruments, denominated in a foreign currency, gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in the value of foreign currency between the date of acquisition of the security or contract and the date of disposition also are generally treated as ordinary gain or loss. These gains and losses, referred to under the Code as "section 988" gains and losses, may increase or decrease the amount of the Fund's investment company taxable income subject to distribution to Fund Shareholders as ordinary income. For example, fluctuations in exchange rates may increase the amount of income that the Fund must distribute to qualify for tax treatment as a RIC and to prevent application of an excise tax on undistributed income. Alternatively, fluctuations in exchange rates may decrease or eliminate income available for distribution. If section 988 losses exceed other investment company taxable income during a tax year, the Fund would not be able to distribute amounts considered dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and any distributions during a tax year made by the Fund before such losses were recognized would be re-characterized as a return of capital to Fund Shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, rather than as ordinary dividend income, and would reduce each Fund Shareholder's tax basis in Fund Shares.

If the Fund utilizes leverage through the issuance of preferred Shares or borrowings, it will be prohibited from declaring a distribution or dividend if it would fail the applicable asset coverage test(s) under the 1940 Act after the payment of such distribution or dividend. In addition, certain covenants in credit facilities or indentures may impose greater restrictions on the Fund's ability to declare and pay dividends on Fund Shares. Limits on the Fund's ability to pay dividends on Fund Shares may prevent the Fund from meeting the distribution requirements described above and, as a result, may affect the Fund's ability to be subject to tax as a RIC or subject the Fund to the 4% excise tax. The Fund endeavors to avoid restrictions on its ability to make distribution payments. If the Fund is precluded from making distributions on Fund Shares because of any applicable asset coverage requirements, the terms of preferred Shares (if any) may provide that any amounts so precluded from being distributed, but required to be distributed by the Fund to enable the Fund to satisfy the distribution requirements that would enable the Fund to be subject to tax as a RIC, will be paid to the holders of preferred Shares as a special distribution. This distribution can be expected to decrease the amount that holders of preferred Shares would be entitled to receive upon redemption or liquidation of such preferred Shares.

Certain of the Fund's investments are expected to be subject to special U.S. federal income tax provisions that may, among other things, (1) disallow, suspend or otherwise limit the allowance of certain losses or deductions, (2) convert lower-taxed long-term capital gains into higher-taxed short-term capital gains or ordinary income, (3) convert an ordinary loss or a deduction into a capital loss, the deductibility of which is more limited, (4) adversely affect when a purchase or sale of shares or securities is deemed to occur, (5) adversely alter the intended characterization of certain complex financial transactions, (6) cause the Fund to recognize income or gain without a corresponding receipt of cash, (7) treat dividends that would otherwise constitute qualified dividend income as non-qualified dividend income, (8) treat dividends that would otherwise be eligible for the corporate dividends received deduction as ineligible for such treatment and (9) produce income that will not constitute Qualifying RIC Income. The application of these rules could cause the Fund to be subject to U.S. federal income tax or the 4% excise tax and, under certain circumstances, could affect the Fund's status as a RIC. The Fund monitors its investments and may make certain tax elections to mitigate the effect of these provisions.

The remainder of this discussion assumes that the Fund has qualified and maintain its qualification as a RIC and has satisfied the distribution requirements described above.

Taxation of U.S. Shareholders

Distributions

Distributions of the Fund's ordinary income and net short-term capital gains will, except as described below with respect to distributions of "qualified dividend income," generally be taxable to Shareholders as ordinary income to the extent such distributions are paid out of the Fund's current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Distributions (or deemed distributions, as described above), if any, of net capital gains will be taxable as long-term capital gains, regardless of the length of time a Shareholder has owned Shares. The ultimate tax characterization of the Fund's distributions made in a tax year cannot be determined until after the end of the tax year. As a result, the Fund may make total distributions during a tax year in an amount that exceeds the current and accumulated earnings and profits of the Fund. A distribution of an amount in excess of the Fund's current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated by a Shareholder as a return of capital that will be applied against and reduce the Shareholder's tax basis in its Shares. To the extent that the amount of any such distribution exceeds the Shareholder's tax basis in its Shares, the excess will be treated as gain from a sale or exchange of Shares. Distributions will be treated in the manner described above regardless of whether such distributions are paid in cash or invested in additional Shares. Generally, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a Shareholder receiving Shares under the DRP will be treated as having received a distribution equal to the fair market value of such Shares on the date the Shares are credited to the Shareholder's account.

A return of capital to Shareholders is a return of a portion of their original investment in the Fund, thereby reducing the tax basis of their investment. As a result from such reduction in tax basis, Shareholders may be subject to tax in connection with the sale of Fund Shares, even if such Shares are sold at a loss relative to the Shareholder's original investment.

It is expected that a substantial portion of the Fund's income will consist of ordinary income. For example, interest and OID derived by the Fund characterized as ordinary income for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In addition, gain derived by the Fund from the disposition of debt instruments with "market discount" (generally, securities with a fixed maturity date of more than one year from the date of issuance acquired by the Fund at a price below the lesser of their stated redemption price at maturity or accreted value, in the case of securities with OID) will be characterized as ordinary income for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent of the market discount that has accrued, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, at the time of such disposition, unless the Fund makes an election to accrue market discount on a current basis. In addition, certain of the Fund's investments will be subject to other special U.S. federal income tax provisions that may affect the character, increase the amount and/or accelerate the timing of distributions to Shareholders.

Under applicable Treasury regulations, certain distributions reported by the Fund as section 163(j) interest dividends may be treated as interest income by Shareholders for purposes of the tax rules applicable to interest expense limitations under Code section 163(j). Such treatment by the Shareholder is generally subject to holding period requirements and other potential limitations, although the holding period requirements are generally not applicable to dividends declared by money market funds and certain other funds that declare dividends daily and pay such dividends on a monthly or more frequent basis. The amount that the Fund is eligible to report as a Section 163(j) dividend for a tax year is generally limited to the excess of the Fund's business interest income over the sum of the Fund's (i) business interest expense and (ii) other deductions properly allocable to the Fund's business interest income.

Distributions made by the Fund to a corporate Shareholder will qualify for the dividends-received deduction only to the extent that the distributions consist of qualifying dividends received by the Fund. In addition, any portion of the Fund's dividends otherwise qualifying for the dividends-received deduction will be disallowed or reduced if the corporate Shareholder fails to satisfy certain requirements, including a holding period requirement, with respect to its Shares. Distributions of "qualified dividend income" to an individual or other non-corporate Shareholder will be treated as "qualified dividend income" to such Shareholder and generally will be taxed at long-term capital gain rates, provided the Shareholder satisfies the applicable holding period and other requirements. "Qualified dividend income" generally includes dividends from domestic corporations and dividends from foreign corporations that meet certain specified criteria. Given the Fund's investment strategy, it is not expected that a significant portion of the distributions made by the Fund will be eligible for the dividends-received deduction or the reduced rates applicable to "qualified dividend income."

If a person acquires Shares shortly before the record date of a distribution, the price of the Shares may include the value of the distribution, and the person will be subject to tax on the distribution even though economically it may represent a return of his, her or its investment in such Shares.

Distributions paid by the Fund generally will be treated as received by a Shareholder at the time the distribution is made. However, the Fund may, under certain circumstances, elect to treat a distribution that is paid during the following tax year as if it had been paid during the tax year in which the income or gains supporting the distribution was earned. If the Fund makes such an election, the Shareholder will still be treated as receiving the distribution in the tax year in which the distribution is received. In this instance, however, any distribution declared by the Fund in October, November or December of any calendar year, payable to Shareholders of record on a specified date in such a month and actually paid during January of the following calendar year, will be treated for tax purposes as if it had been received by Shareholders on December 31 of the calendar year in which the distribution was declared.

Shareholders will be notified annually, as promptly as practicable after the end of each calendar year, as to the U.S. federal tax status of distributions, and Shareholders receiving distributions in the form of additional Shares will receive a report as to the NAV of those Shares.

Sale or Exchange of Shares

The repurchase or transfer of Shares may result in a taxable gain or loss to the tendering Shareholder. Different tax consequences may apply for tendering and non-tendering Shareholders in connection with a repurchase offer. For example, if a Shareholder does not tender all of his or her Shares, such repurchase may not be treated as a sale or exchange for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and may result in deemed distributions to non-tendering Shareholders. On the other hand, Shareholders holding Shares as capital assets who tender all of their Shares (including Shares deemed owned by Shareholders under constructive ownership rules) will be treated as having sold their Shares and generally will recognize capital gain or loss. The amount of the gain or loss will be equal to the difference between the amount received for the Shares and the Shareholder's adjusted tax basis in the relevant Shares. Such gain or loss generally will be a long-term capital gain or loss if the Shareholder has held such Shares as capital assets for more than one year. Otherwise, the gain or loss will be treated as short-term capital gain or loss.

Losses realized by a Shareholder on the sale or exchange of Shares held as capital assets for six months or less will be treated as long-term capital losses to the extent of any distribution of long-term capital gains received (or deemed received, as discussed above) with respect to such Shares. In addition, no loss will be allowed on a sale or other disposition of Shares if the Shareholder acquires (including through reinvestment of distributions or otherwise) Shares, or enters into a contract or option to acquire Shares, within 30 days before or after any disposition of such Shares at a loss. In such a case, the basis of the Shares acquired will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed loss. Under current law, net capital gains recognized by non-corporate Shareholders are generally subject to U.S. federal income tax at lower rates than the rates applicable to ordinary income.

In general, U.S. Shareholders currently are generally subject to a maximum federal income tax rate of either 15% or 20% (depending on whether the Shareholder's income exceeds certain threshold amounts) on their net capital gain (i.e., the excess of realized net long-term capital gains over realized net short-term capital losses), including any long-term capital gain derived from an investment in Shares. Such rate is lower than the maximum rate on ordinary income currently payable by individuals. Corporate U.S. Shareholders currently are subject to U.S. federal income tax on net capital gain at the maximum rate also applied to ordinary income (currently at 21%). Non-corporate Shareholders with net capital losses for a tax year (i.e., capital losses in excess of capital gains) generally may deduct up to $3,000 of such losses against their ordinary income each tax year. Any net capital losses of a non-corporate Shareholder in excess of $3,000 generally may be carried forward and used in subsequent tax years as provided in the Code. Corporate Shareholders generally may not deduct any net capital losses for a tax year, but may carry back such losses for three tax years or carry forward such losses for five tax years.

An additional 3.8% Medicare tax is imposed on certain net investment income (including ordinary dividends and capital gain distributions received from the Fund and net gains from redemptions or other taxable dispositions of Shares) of U.S. individuals, estates and trusts to the extent that such person's "modified adjusted gross income" (in the case of an individual) or "adjusted gross income" (in the case of an estate or trust) exceeds certain threshold amounts. U.S. persons that are individuals, estates or trusts are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the applicability of this tax to their income and gains in respect of their investment in the Fund.

The Fund (or if a U.S. Shareholder holds Shares through an intermediary, such intermediary) will send to each of its U.S. Shareholders, as promptly as possible after the end of each calendar year, a notice detailing the amounts includible in such U.S. Shareholder's taxable income for such year as ordinary income and as long-term capital gain. In addition, the federal tax status of each year's distributions generally will be reported to the IRS, including the amount of distributions, if any, eligible for the preferential maximum rate generally applicable to long-term capital gains. Distributions paid by the Fund generally will not be eligible for the corporate dividends received deduction or the preferential tax rate applicable to Qualifying Dividends because the Fund's income generally will not consist of dividends. Distributions may also be subject to additional state, local and foreign taxes depending on a U.S. Shareholder's particular situation.

Under U.S. Treasury regulations, if a Shareholder recognizes losses with respect to Shares of $2 million or more for an individual Shareholder or $10 million or more for a corporate Shareholder, the Shareholder must file with the IRS a disclosure statement on IRS Form 8886. Direct Shareholders of portfolio securities are in many cases excepted from this reporting requirement, but under current guidance, shareholders of a RIC are not excepted. Future guidance may extend the current exception from this reporting requirement to shareholders of most or all RICs. The fact that a loss is reportable under these regulations does not affect the legal determination of whether the taxpayer's treatment of the loss is proper. Shareholders should consult their tax advisors to determine the applicability of these regulations in light of their individual circumstances.

Reporting of adjusted cost basis information is required for covered securities, which generally include shares of a RIC, to the IRS and to taxpayers. Shareholders should contact their Financial Intermediaries with respect to reporting of cost basis and available elections for their accounts.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Information returns will be filed with the IRS in connection with payments on Shares and the proceeds from a sale or other disposition of Shares. A Shareholder will be subject to backup withholding on all such payments if it fails to provide the payor with its correct taxpayer identification number (generally, in the case of a U.S. resident Shareholder, on an IRS Form W-9) and to make required certifications or otherwise establish an exemption from backup withholding. Corporate Shareholders and certain other Shareholders generally are exempt from backup withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against the applicable Shareholder's U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Taxation of Non-U.S. Shareholders

Whether an investment in the Fund is appropriate for a non-U.S. Shareholder (as defined below) will depend upon that investor's particular circumstances. An investment in the Fund by a non-U.S. Shareholder may have adverse tax consequences. Non-U.S. Shareholders should consult their tax advisors before investing in Shares.

The U.S. federal income taxation of a Shareholder that is a nonresident alien individual, a foreign trust or estate or a foreign corporation, as defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a "non-U.S. Shareholder"), depends on whether the income that the Shareholder derives from the Fund is "effectively connected" with a U.S. trade or business carried on by the Shareholder.

If the income that a non-U.S. Shareholder derives from the Fund is not "effectively connected" with a U.S. trade or business carried on by such non-U.S. Shareholder, distributions of "investment company taxable income" will generally be subject to a U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% (or a lower rate provided under an applicable treaty). Alternatively, if the income that a non-U.S. Shareholder derives from the Fund is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business of the non-U.S. Shareholder, the Fund will not be required to withhold U.S. federal tax if the non-U.S. Shareholder complies with applicable certification and disclosure requirements, although such income will be subject to U.S. federal income tax in the manner described below and at the rates applicable to U.S. residents. Backup withholding will not, however, be applied to payments that have been subject to this 30% withholding tax applicable to non-U.S. Shareholders.

A non-U.S. Shareholder whose income from the Fund is not "effectively connected" with a U.S. trade or business will generally be exempt from U.S. federal income tax on capital gains distributions, any amounts retained by the Fund that are designated as undistributed capital gains and any gains realized upon the sale or exchange of Shares. If, however, such a non-U.S. Shareholder is a nonresident alien individual and is physically present in the United States for 183 days or more during the tax year and meets certain other requirements such capital gains distributions, undistributed capital gains and gains from the sale or exchange of Shares will be subject to a 30% U.S. tax.

Furthermore, properly reported distributions by the Fund and received by non-U.S. Shareholders are generally exempt from U.S. federal withholding tax when they (a) are paid by the Fund in respect of the Fund's "qualified net interest income" (i.e., the Fund's U.S. source interest income, subject to certain exceptions, reduced by expenses that are allocable to such income), or (b) are paid by the Fund in connection with the Fund's "qualified short-term capital gains" (generally, the excess of the Fund's net short-term capital gains over the Fund's long-term capital losses for such tax year). However, depending on the circumstances, the Fund may report all, some or none of the Fund's potentially eligible distributions as derived from such qualified net interest income or from such qualified short-term capital gains, and a portion of such distributions (e.g., derived from interest from non-U.S. sources or any foreign currency gains) would be ineligible for this potential exemption from withholding. Moreover, in the case of Shares held through an intermediary, the intermediary may have withheld amounts even if the Fund reported all or a portion of a distribution as exempt from U.S. federal withholding tax. To qualify for this exemption from withholding, a non-U.S. Shareholder must comply with applicable certification requirements relating to its non-U.S. tax residency status (including, in general, furnishing an IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8IMY or IRS Form W-8EXP, or an acceptable substitute or successor form). Thus, an investment in the Shares by a non-U.S. Shareholder may have adverse tax consequences as compared to a direct investment in the assets in which the Fund will invest.

If the income from the Fund is "effectively connected" with a U.S. trade or business carried on by a non-U.S. Shareholder, any distributions of "investment company taxable income," capital gains distributions, amounts retained by the Fund that are designated as undistributed capital gains and any gains realized upon the sale or exchange of Shares will be subject to U.S. income tax, on a net income basis, in the same manner, and at the graduated rates applicable to, U.S. persons. If such a non-U.S. Shareholder is a corporation, it may also be subject to the U.S. branch profits tax.

A non-U.S. Shareholder other than a corporation may be subject to backup withholding on net capital gains distributions that are otherwise exempt from withholding tax or on distributions that would otherwise be taxable at a reduced treaty rate if such Shareholder does not certify its non-U.S. status under penalties of perjury or otherwise establish an exemption.

If the Fund distributes net capital gains in the form of deemed rather than actual distributions, a non-U.S. Shareholder will be entitled to a U.S. federal income tax credit or tax refund equal to the Shareholder's allocable share of the tax the Fund pays on the capital gains deemed to have been distributed. To obtain the refund, the non-U.S. Shareholder must obtain a U.S. taxpayer identification number and file a federal income tax return even if the non-U.S. Shareholder would not otherwise be required to obtain a U.S. taxpayer identification number or file a federal income tax return.

Under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act provisions of the Code, the Fund is required to withhold U.S. tax (at a 30% rate) on payments of taxable dividends made to certain non-U.S. entities that fail to comply (or be deemed compliant) with extensive reporting and withholding requirements in the Code designed to inform the U.S. Department of the Treasury of U.S.-owned foreign investment accounts. Shareholders may be requested to provide additional information to the Fund to enable the Fund to determine whether withholding is required.

The tax consequences to a non-U.S. Shareholder entitled to claim the benefits of an applicable tax treaty may differ from those described herein. Non-U.S. Shareholders are advised to consult their tax advisors with respect to the particular tax consequences to them of an investment in the Fund, including the potential application of the U.S. estate tax.

Other Taxes

Shareholders may be subject to state, local and non-U.S. taxes applicable to their investment in the Fund. In those states or localities, entity-level tax treatment and the treatment of distributions made to Shareholders under those jurisdictions' tax laws may differ from the treatment under the Code. Accordingly, an investment in Shares may have tax consequences for Shareholders that are different from those of a direct investment in the Fund's portfolio investments. Shareholders are advised to consult their tax advisors with respect to the particular tax consequences to them of an investment in the Fund.

ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

Employee benefit plans and other plans subject to ERISA or the Code, including corporate savings and 401(k) plans, IRAs and Keogh Plans (each, an "ERISA Plan") may purchase Shares. ERISA imposes certain general and specific responsibilities on persons who are fiduciaries with respect to an ERISA Plan, including prudence, diversification, prohibited transactions and other standards. Because the Fund is registered as an investment company under the 1940 Act, the underlying assets of the Fund will not be considered to be "plan assets" of any ERISA Plan investing in the Fund for purposes of the fiduciary responsibility and prohibited transaction rules under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. Thus, neither the Fund nor the Adviser will be a fiduciary within the meaning of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code with respect to the assets of any ERISA Plan that becomes a Shareholder, solely as a result of the ERISA Plan's investment in the Fund.

The provisions of ERISA are subject to extensive and continuing administrative and judicial interpretation and review. The discussion of ERISA contained herein is, of necessity, general and may be affected by future publication of regulations and rulings. Potential investors should consult their legal advisers regarding the consequences under ERISA of an investment in the Fund through an ERISA Plan.

ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS IN THE DECLARATION OF TRUST

The Declaration of Trust includes provisions that could have the effect of limiting the ability of other entities or persons to acquire control of the Fund or to change the composition of the Board. These provisions may have the effect of discouraging attempts to acquire control of the Fund, which attempts could have the effect of increasing the expenses of the Fund and interfering with the normal operation of the Fund. The Trustees are elected for indefinite terms and do not stand for reelection. A Trustee may be removed from office with or without cause at any time by a written instrument signed by at least two-thirds (2/3) of the remaining Trustees or at a meeting by action of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the remaining Trustees. The Declaration of Trust does not contain any other specific inhibiting provisions that would operate only with respect to an extraordinary transaction such as a merger, reorganization, tender offer, sale or transfer of substantially all of the Fund's asset, or liquidation. Reference should be made to the Declaration of Trust on file with the SEC for the full text of these provisions.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Foreside Fund Services, LLC, located at Three Canal Plaza, Suite 100, Portland, Maine 04101 (the "Distributor"), serves as the Fund's principal underwriter and acts as the distributor of the Fund's Shares on a best efforts basis, subject to various conditions. The Fund's Shares are offered for sale through the Distributor at NAV. The Distributor also may enter into broker-dealer selling agreements with other broker dealers for the sale and distribution of the Fund's Shares.

The Distributor is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of the Fund's Shares, but will use its best efforts to solicit orders for the sale of the Shares. Shares of the Fund will not be listed on any national securities exchange and the Distributor will not act as a market maker in Fund Shares.

About Investment Platforms

The Fund's Shares being offered hereby will be primarily offered and distributed by the Distributor and its associated persons through investment platforms and financial intermediaries.

The offering and distribution of the Fund's Shares (and all associated activities) will be conducted by the Distributor and its associated persons. The Fund will not pay investment platforms and financial intermediaries any sales commissions for hosting this offering on such platforms; however, financial intermediaries may earn Service Fees as discussed above. This offering is being made on a "best efforts" basis. Other than the Service Fees (which are indirectly borne by the Fund's shareholders), there is no fee imposed by the Fund relating to such investment platforms or financial intermediaries. Investment platforms and financial intermediaries may charge fees for the services they provide to you in connection with processing your transaction order or maintaining your account with them.

No market currently exists for the Fund's Shares. The Fund's Shares are not listed and the Fund does not currently intend to list its Shares for trading on any securities exchange, and the Fund does not anticipate that any secondary market will develop for its Shares. Neither the Adviser nor the Fund intends to make a market in the Fund's Shares.

How to Purchase Shares

This Prospectus and supplements hereto will be furnished to prospective investors upon their request via electronic PDF format and will be available for viewing and download 24 hours per day, 7 days per week on the Fund's website at ark-ventures.com, as well as on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

Investors seeking to purchase the Fund's Shares should proceed as follows:

●	Read this entire prospectus and any accompanying supplements.

●	Electronically complete, execute and deliver a copy of the subscription agreement as required by the Distributor.

The Fund is deemed to have received a subscription when the Fund or the Distributor receives the properly completed and executed subscription agreement (and all related documentation) in accordance with the instructions provided therein.

By executing the subscription agreement and paying the total purchase price for the Fund's Shares subscribed for, each investor agrees to accept and fully comply with the terms of the subscription agreement. Subscriptions will be binding upon investors but will be effective only upon the Fund's acceptance of the subscribing investor as a shareholder of the Fund, which will be based on the Fund's or the Distributor's determination that the investor satisfies all of the terms and conditions of the subscription agreement. Prospective investors should carefully read the subscription agreement before purchasing Shares of the Fund. The Fund and the Distributor reserve the right to reject any subscription in whole or in part or pause accepting new subscriptions.

An investor will become a shareholder of the Fund, including for tax purposes, and the Shares will be issued, as of the date of settlement. Settlement will not occur until an investor's funds have cleared and the Fund accepts the investor as a shareholder. The number of shares issued to an investor will be calculated based on the NAV per Share in effect on the date the Fund receives the subscription. The acceptance of subscriptions may be briefly paused at times to allow the Fund to effectively and accurately process and settle subscriptions that have been received.

If the offering terminates or if any prospective investor's subscription is rejected, all funds received from such investors will be returned without interest or deduction. To the extent that the funds are not ultimately received by the Fund or are subsequently withdrawn by the subscriber, whether due to an ACH chargeback or otherwise, the subscription agreement will be considered terminated, and the subscriber will not be entitled to any Shares subscribed for or dividends that may have accrued.

The Fund reserves the right to reject any initial or additional investment and to suspend the offering of Shares.

Transactions Through Your Financial Intermediary

Shareholders may invest in the Fund through a financial intermediary. Your financial intermediary is responsible for ensuring that your order is made in accordance with the subscription procedures described above under "How to Purchase Shares." Purchase through a financial intermediary does not affect these subscription procedures.

Financial intermediaries may charge fees for the services they provide to you in connection with processing your transaction order or maintaining your account with them. Each financial intermediary may also have its own rules about minimum initial investment amounts, minimum account balances, share transactions and limits on the number of share transactions you are permitted to make in a given time period. The Fund has the discretion to modify or waive these requirements. For more information about your financial intermediary's rules and procedures, you should contact your financial intermediary directly.

Minimum Purchase Requirements

The minimum initial investment for Shares of the Fund is $500. There is no minimum investment requirement on additional purchases after you have purchased a minimum of $500. In certain instances, the Fund may revise the minimum purchase requirement in the future or elect to waive the minimum purchase requirement, such as for individuals who participate in different plans established by the Adviser. In addition, in order to help protect the Fund from the risk of chargebacks, the Fund or the Distributor may require that any subscription in excess of $125,000 of the Fund's Shares be funded through a bank wire transfer and not an ACH electronic fund transfer.

Certificates Will Not be Issued

The Fund will not issue certificates. Instead, the Fund's Shares will be recorded and maintained on the Fund's membership register.

Transferability of Shares

The Fund's Shares are generally freely transferable by the Fund's Shareholders subject to any restrictions imposed by applicable law or contract.

No Escrow

The proceeds of the offering of the Fund's Shares will not be placed into an escrow account.

Customer Identification Program

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires certain financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person that opens a new account, and to determine whether such person's name appears on government lists of known or suspected terrorists and terrorist organizations. As a result, the Fund may seek to obtain the following information for each person that opens a new account:

●

Name;

●	Date of Birth (for individuals);

●	Residential or business street address (although post office boxes are still permitted for mailing);

●	Social Security number, taxpayer identification number, or other identifying information; and

●	U.S. citizenship or residency status.

You may also be asked for a copy of your driver's license, passport or other identifying document in order to verify your identity. In addition, it may be necessary to verify your identity by cross-referencing your identification information with a consumer report or other electronic database. Additional information may be required to open accounts for corporations and other entities. If you are opening the account in the name of a legal entity (e.g., partnership, limited liability company, business trust, corporation, etc.), you may be asked to supply the identity of the beneficial owners.

Federal law prohibits certain financial institutions from opening a new account on behalf of a natural person unless they receive the minimum identifying information listed above. After an account is opened, the Fund may restrict your ability to purchase additional Shares until your identity is verified. The Fund may close your account or take other appropriate action if it is unable to verify your identity within a reasonable time. The Fund and its agents will not be responsible for any loss in an investor's account resulting from the investor's delay in providing any and all requested identifying information or from closing an account and repurchasing an investor's Shares when an investor's identity is not verified.

In addition, the Fund may be required to "freeze" your account if there appears to be suspicious activity or if account information matches information on a government list of known terrorists or other suspicious persons.

Fund Closings

The Fund may close at any time to new investments and, during such closings, only the reinvestment of dividends by existing Shareholders will be permitted. The Fund may re-open to new investment and subsequently close again to new investment at any time at the discretion of the Adviser. Any such opening and closing of the Fund will be disclosed to investors via a supplement to this Prospectus.

DISTRIBUTIONS

The Fund intends to qualify each year as a regulated investment company under the Code. As a regulated investment company, the Fund generally pays no federal income tax on the income and gains it distributes. Each shareholder of the Fund is entitled to its share of the Fund's distributions of net investment income and net realized capital gains on its investments. The Fund pays out substantially all of its net earnings to its shareholders as "distributions."

The Fund typically earns income dividends from stocks and interest from debt securities. These amounts, net of expenses, are typically passed along to Fund shareholders as dividends from net investment income. The Fund realizes capital gains or losses whenever it sells securities. Net realized capital gains are distributed to shareholders as "capital gain distributions." Distributions from a Fund's net investment income, including net short-term capital gains, if any, are taxable to shareholders as ordinary income. Any long-term capital gains distributions a shareholder receives from the Fund are taxable as long-term capital gain.

Net investment income, if any, and net capital gains, if any, are typically distributed to shareholders at least annually. Dividends may be declared and paid more frequently to comply with the distribution requirements of the Code. In addition, the Fund may determine to distribute at least annually amounts representing the full dividend yield net of expenses on the underlying investment securities, as if the Fund owned the underlying investment securities for the entire dividend period. Some portion of each distribution may result in a return of capital, which, for tax purposes, is treated as a return of a shareholder's investment in Shares.

Each year, you will receive an annual statement (Form 1099) of your account activity to assist you in completing your federal, state and local tax returns. Distributions declared in December to shareholders of record in such month, but paid in January, are taxable as if they were paid in December. The Fund makes every effort to search for reclassified income to reduce the number of corrected forms mailed to you. However, when necessary, you will receive a corrected Form 1099 to reflect reclassified information.

At the time you purchase your Fund Shares, the price of Shares may reflect undistributed income, undistributed capital gains, or net unrealized appreciation in value of portfolio securities held by the Fund. For taxable investors, a subsequent distribution to you of such amounts, although constituting a return of your investment, would be taxable. Buying Shares in a Fund just before it declares an income dividend or capital gains distribution is sometimes known as "buying a dividend."

Dividend Reinvestment Plan

The Fund will operate under a DRP administered by BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc. (the "Dividend Paying Agent"). Pursuant to the plan, the Fund's distributions, net of any applicable U.S. withholding tax, are reinvested in the same class of shares of the Fund. Shareholders automatically participate in the DRP, unless and until an election is made to withdraw from the plan on behalf of such participating shareholder. Shareholders who do not wish to have distributions automatically reinvested should so notify their financial intermediary or investment platforms (if applicable). Such written notice must be received by 30 days prior to the record date of the distribution or the shareholder will receive such distribution in shares through the DRP. Under the DRP, the Fund's distributions to shareholders are automatically reinvested in full and fractional shares as described below.

When the Fund declares a distribution, the Dividend Paying Agent, on the shareholder's behalf, will receive additional authorized shares from the Fund either newly issued or repurchased from shareholders by the Fund and held as treasury stock. The number of shares to be received when distributions are reinvested will be determined by dividing the amount of the distribution by the Fund's NAV per share.

The Dividend Paying Agent will maintain all shareholder accounts and furnish written confirmations of all transactions in the accounts, including information needed by shareholders for personal and tax records. The Dividend Paying Agent will hold shares in the account of the shareholders in non-certificated form in the name of the participant, and each shareholder's proxy, if any, will include those shares purchased pursuant to the DRP. Each participant, nevertheless, has the right to request certificates for whole and fractional shares owned. The Fund will issue certificates in its sole discretion. The Dividend Paying Agent will distribute all proxy solicitation materials, if any, to participating shareholders.

In the case of shareholders, such as banks, brokers or nominees, that hold shares for others who are beneficial owners participating under the DRP, the Dividend Paying Agent will administer the DRP on the basis of the number of shares certified from time to time by the record shareholder as representing the total amount of shares registered in the shareholder's name and held for the account of beneficial owners participating under the DRP.

Neither the Dividend Paying Agent nor the Fund shall have any responsibility or liability beyond the exercise of ordinary care for any action taken or omitted pursuant to the DRP, nor shall they have any duties, responsibilities or liabilities except such as expressly set forth herein. Neither shall they be liable hereunder for any act done in good faith or for any good faith omissions to act, including, without limitation, failure to terminate a participant's account prior to receipt of written notice of his or her death or with respect to prices at which shares are purchased or sold for the participants account and the terms on which such purchases and sales are made, subject to applicable provisions of the federal securities laws.

The automatic reinvestment of dividends will not relieve participants of any federal, state or local income tax that may be payable (or required to be withheld) on such dividends. See "Tax Aspects."

The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the DRP. There is no direct service charge to participants with regard to purchases under the DRP; however, the Fund reserves the right to amend the dividend reinvestment plan to include a service charge payable by the participants.

All correspondence concerning the DRP should be directed to the shareholder's financial intermediary or investment platform (if applicable). Certain transactions can be performed by calling 908-739-6325.

FISCAL YEAR; REPORTS

For accounting purposes, the Fund's fiscal year and tax year end on July 31. As soon as practicable after the end of each calendar year, a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the sources of the distributions paid by the Fund to Shareholders for tax purposes will be furnished to Shareholders subject to IRS reporting. In addition, the Fund will prepare and transmit to Shareholders an unaudited semi-annual and an audited annual report within 60 days after the close of the period for which the report is being made, or as otherwise required by the 1940 Act.

Investors should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus. No dealer, salesperson or other individual has been authorized to give any information or to make any representations that are not contained in this prospectus. If any such information or statements are given or made, investors should not rely upon such information or representations. This prospectus does not constitute an offer to sell any securities other than those to which this prospectus relates, or an offer to sell to, or a solicitation of an offer to buy from, any person in any jurisdiction where such an offer or solicitation would be unlawful.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE FUND

The Fund is a continuously offered, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company which operates as an "interval fund. Closed-end funds differ from open-end funds (commonly known as mutual funds) in that investors in closed-end funds do not have the right to redeem their shares on a daily basis. The shares of the Fund are referred to herein as "Shares." Unlike many closed-end funds, which typically list their shares on a securities exchange, the Fund does not currently intend to list the Shares for trading on any securities exchange, and the Fund does not expect any secondary market to develop for the Shares in the foreseeable future. Therefore, an investment in the Fund, unlike an investment in a typical closed-end fund, is not a liquid investment. To provide some liquidity to Shareholders, the Fund will be structured as an "interval fund" and conduct quarterly repurchase offers for a limited amount of the Fund's Shares (expected to be 5% of the Fund's Shares outstanding). The Fund is classified as a non-diversified management investment company under the 1940 Act, and, as a result, is not required to meet certain diversification requirements under the 1940 Act. The Fund was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on January 11, 2022.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, POLICIES AND RISKS

A discussion of the risks associated with an investment in the Fund is contained in the Prospectus under the headings "Summary of Terms - Principal Risks" and "Types of Investments and Related Risks." The discussion below supplements, and should be read in conjunction with, such sections of the Prospectus.

General

An investment in the Fund should be made with an understanding that the value of the Fund's portfolio securities may fluctuate in accordance with changes in the financial condition of the issuers of the portfolio securities, the value of securities generally and other factors.

An investment in the Fund should also be made with an understanding of the risks inherent in an investment in equity securities, including the risk that the financial condition of issuers may become impaired or that the general condition of the securities market may deteriorate (either of which may cause a decrease in the value of the portfolio securities and thus in the value of Shares). Common stocks are susceptible to general stock market fluctuations and to volatile increases and decreases in value as market confidence in and perceptions of their issuers change. These investor perceptions are based on various and unpredictable factors, including expectations regarding government, economic, monetary and fiscal policies, inflation and interest rates, economic expansion or contraction, and global or regional political, economic and banking crises.

Holders of common stocks incur more risk than holders of preferred stocks and debt obligations because common stockholders, as owners of the issuer, have generally inferior rights to receive payments from the issuer in comparison with the rights of creditors of, or holders of debt obligations or preferred stocks issued by, the issuer. Further, unlike debt securities, which typically have a stated principal amount payable at maturity (whose value, however, will be subject to market fluctuations prior thereto), or preferred stocks which typically have a liquidation preference and which may have stated optional or mandatory redemption provisions, common stocks have neither a fixed principal amount nor a maturity. Common stock values are subject to market fluctuations as long as the common stock remains outstanding.

In the event that the securities in which the Fund invests are not listed on a national securities exchange, the principal trading market for some may be in the over-the-counter market. The existence of a liquid trading market for certain securities may depend on whether dealers will make a market in such securities. There can be no assurance that a market will be made or maintained or that any such market will be or remain liquid. The price at which securities may be sold and the value of the Fund's Shares will be adversely affected if trading markets for certain of the Fund's portfolio securities are limited or absent or if bid/ask spreads are wide.

The Adviser incorporates environmental, social, and governance ("ESG") considerations into both its "top down" and "bottom up" approaches. The Adviser believes that the technologies underlying the Adviser's disruptive innovation platforms closely align with the principles embodied by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (the "UN Goals"). The UN Goals are a collection of 17 interlinked goals designed to provide a shared blueprint for countries to, among other objectives, end extreme poverty and hunger, fight inequality and injustice, and tackle climate change. The Adviser uses the framework of the UN Goals to integrate ESG considerations into its "top down" research and investment approach. In an effort to analyze how the ESG considerations embodied by the UN Goals are being addressed by the technologies underlying the Adviser's disruptive innovation platforms, the Adviser scores each company held by the Fund by the amount of exposure it has to the technologies underlying the Adviser's disruptive innovation platforms. The Adviser then determines and documents how each technology relates to the UN Goals, thereby enabling the Adviser to consider ESG considerations in its investment decisions. The Adviser does not use ESG considerations, however, to limit, restrict or otherwise exclude companies or sectors from the Fund's investment universe. The Adviser also incorporates ESG considerations into its "bottom up" research and investment approach. The Adviser begins with a universe of potential investments developed through its "top down" process. The Adviser then scores potential investments for the Fund against six key metrics, which include ESG considerations. The scores assigned to each potential investment in the Fund's universe then guide the Adviser's investment decisions.

Market Events

The market values of the Fund's assets will fluctuate, sometimes sharply and unpredictably, due to changes in general market conditions, overall economic trends or events, governmental actions or intervention, actions taken by the U.S. Federal Reserve or foreign central banks, market disruptions caused by trade disputes or other factors, political developments, investor sentiment and other factors. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are increasingly interconnected. Economic, financial or political events, trading and tariff arrangements, war, terrorism, natural disasters, public health emergencies, supply chain disruptions, sanctions and other circumstances involving one country or region could have profound impacts on global economies or markets. As a result, the value and liquidity of the Fund's investments may be negatively affected.

In addition, governments have recently imposed, and may in the future impose, economic sanctions or other similar measures against certain countries, entities or individuals. The Fund's investments may be subject to these measures, which could prevent or prohibit the Fund from making certain investments or transacting with certain counterparties. These measures could also result in countermeasures or retaliatory actions, which may adversely impact the Fund's investments, including those that are not economically tied to sanctioned countries, entities or individuals. The imposition of sanctions and retaliatory measures could, among other things, disrupt markets in which the Fund invests, devalue currencies, and increase market volatility throughout the world. Economic sanctions or other similar measures could, among other things, effectively restrict or eliminate the Fund's ability to purchase or sell certain investments, negatively impact the value or liquidity of the Fund's investments, significantly delay or prevent the settlement of the Fund's transactions, force the Fund to sell or otherwise dispose of investments at inopportune times or prices, increase the Fund's transaction costs, make the Fund's investments more difficult to value, or impair the Fund's ability to meet its investment objective or invest in accordance with its investment strategies. These conditions may be in place for a substantial period of time and enacted with limited advance notice.

U.S. and global markets recently have experienced increased volatility, including as a result of the recent failures of certain U.S. and non-U.S. banks, which could be harmful to the Fund and issuers in which it invests. For example, if a bank in which the Fund or issuer has an account fails, any cash or other assets in bank accounts may be temporarily inaccessible or permanently lost by the Fund or issuer. If a bank that provides a subscription line credit facility, asset-based facility, other credit facility and/or other services to an issuer fails, the issuer could be unable to draw funds under its credit facilities or obtain replacement credit facilities or other services from other lending institutions with similar terms. Even if banks used by issuers in which the Fund invests remain solvent, continued volatility in the banking sector could cause or intensify an economic recession, increase the costs of banking services or result in the issuers being unable to obtain or refinance indebtedness at all or on as favorable terms as could otherwise have been obtained. Conditions in the banking sector are evolving, and the scope of any potential impacts to the Fund and issuers, both from market conditions and also potential legislative or regulatory responses, are uncertain. Continued market volatility and uncertainty and/or a downturn in market and economic and financial conditions, as a result of developments in the banking industry or otherwise (including as a result of delayed access to cash or credit facilities), could have an adverse impact on the Fund and issuers in which it invests.

Leverage

The Fund may use leverage to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. The Fund is permitted to obtain leverage using any form or combination of financial leverage instruments, including through funds borrowed from banks or other financial institutions (i.e., a credit facility), margin facilities, or the issuance of notes in an aggregate amount up to 331∕3% of the Fund's total assets (or in the case of the issuance of preferred shares, 50% of total assets), including any assets purchased with borrowed money, immediately after giving effect to the leverage. The Fund may also use leverage generated by reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls and similar transactions. The Fund may use leverage opportunistically and may use different types, combinations or amounts of leverage over time, based on the Adviser's views concerning market conditions and investment opportunities. The Fund's strategies relating to its use of leverage may not be successful, and the Fund's use of leverage will cause the Fund's net asset value ("NAV") to be more volatile than it would otherwise be. There can be no guarantee that the Fund will leverage its assets or, to the extent the Fund does use leverage, what percentage of its assets such leverage will represent.

On September 25, 2024, the Fund entered into a credit agreement with Texas Capital Bank (the "TCB Credit Agreement). The maximum amount of the borrowing under the TCB Credit Agreement is $15,000,000. The purpose of the TCB Credit Agreement is primarily to finance temporarily the repurchase of shares of the Fund.

The TCB Credit Agreement also contains customary covenants that, among other things, limit the Fund's ability to incur additional debt, incur certain types of liens, make certain distributions, and engage in certain transactions, including mergers and consolidations. The Fund's ability to borrow under the TCB Credit Agreement is also subject to the limitations of the 1940 Act and various other conditions.

The Fund may amend the TCB Credit Agreement or enter into one or more alternative or additional credit facilities in the future. There can be no assurance that the Fund will enter into an agreement for any new or amended credit facility on terms and conditions representative of the foregoing, or that additional material terms will not apply.

Currency Forwards

A currency forward transaction is a contract to buy or sell a specified quantity of currency at a specified date in the future at a specified price that may be any fixed number of days from the date of the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. Currency forward contracts may be used to increase or reduce exposure to currency price movements.

The use of currency forward transactions involves certain risks. For example, if the counterparty under the contract defaults on its obligation to make payments due from it as a result of its bankruptcy or otherwise, the Fund may lose such payments altogether or collect only a portion thereof, which collection could involve costs or delays.

Foreign Securities

When the Fund invests in foreign securities, it may be subject to risk of loss not typically associated with U.S. issuers. Loss may result because of more or less foreign government regulation; less public information; less stringent investor protections; less stringent accounting, corporate governance, financial reporting and disclosure standards; less liquid, developed or efficient trading markets, greater volatility and less economic, political and social stability in the countries in which the Fund invests. Loss may also result from, among other things, deteriorating economic and business conditions in other countries, including the United States, regional and global conflicts, the imposition of sanctions, exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), foreign taxes, confiscation of assets and property, trade restrictions (including tariffs), expropriations and other government restrictions by the United States and other governments, higher transaction costs, difficulty enforcing contractual obligations or from problems in share registration, settlement or custody. The type and severity of sanctions and other similar measures, including counter sanctions and other retaliatory actions, that may be imposed could vary broadly in scope, and their impact is impossible to predict. These types of measures may include, but are not limited to, banning a sanctioned country from global payment systems that facilitate cross-border payments, restricting the settlement of securities transactions by certain investors, and freezing the assets of particular countries, entities, or persons. The imposition of sanctions and other similar measures could, among other things, cause a decline in the value and/or liquidity of securities issued by the sanctioned country or companies located in or economically tied to the sanctioned country, downgrades in the credit ratings of the sanctioned country or companies located in or economically tied to the sanctioned country, devaluation of the sanctioned country's currency, and increased market volatility and disruption in the sanctioned country and throughout the world. Sanctions and other similar measures could limit or prevent the Fund from buying and selling securities (in the sanctioned country and other markets), significantly delay or prevent the settlement of securities transactions, and significantly impact the Fund's liquidity and performance.

The Fund or the Adviser may determine not to invest in, or may limit its overall investment in, a particular issuer, country or geographic region due to, among other things, heightened risks regarding sanctions, repatriation restrictions, confiscation of assets and property, expropriation or nationalization. Geopolitical developments in certain countries in which the Fund may invest have caused, or may in the future cause, significant volatility in financial markets. For example, the United Kingdom ("UK") withdrew from the European Union ("EU") on January 31, 2020 (commonly known as "Brexit"), which have resulted in increased market volatility and cause additional market disruption on a global basis. Brexit may continue to result in fluctuations of exchange rates, increased illiquidity, inflation, and changes in legal and regulatory regimes to which certain of the Fund's assets are subject. These and other geopolitical developments, including ongoing region armed conflict in Europe, could negatively impact the value of the Fund's investments. The Fund's investments in foreign securities may also be subject to foreign currency risk, the risk of negative foreign currency rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which the Fund may have exposure to foreign currencies) to decline in value. Foreign risks will normally be greatest when the Fund invests in securities of issuers located in emerging countries.

The Fund may invest in foreign securities which take the form of sponsored and unsponsored American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs"), Global Depositary Receipts ("GDRs"), European Depositary Receipts ("EDRs") or other similar instruments representing securities of foreign issuers) (together, "Depositary Receipts"). ADRs represent the right to receive securities of foreign issuers deposited in a domestic bank or a correspondent bank. ADRs are traded on domestic exchanges or in the U.S. over-the-counter market and, generally, are in registered form. EDRs and GDRs are receipts evidencing an arrangement with a non-U.S. bank similar to that for ADRs and are designed for use in the non-U.S. securities markets. EDRs and GDRs are not necessarily quoted in the same currency as the underlying security.

To the extent the Fund acquires Depositary Receipts through banks which do not have a contractual relationship with the foreign issuer of the security underlying the Depositary Receipts to issue and service such unsponsored Depositary Receipts, there is an increased possibility that the Fund will not become aware of and be able to respond to corporate actions such as stock splits or rights offerings involving the foreign issuer in a timely manner. In addition, the lack of information may result in inefficiencies in the valuation of such instruments. Investment in Depositary Receipts does not eliminate all the risks inherent in investing in securities of non-U.S. issuers. The market value of Depositary Receipts is dependent upon the market value of the underlying securities and fluctuations in the relative value of the currencies in which the Depositary Receipts and the underlying securities are quoted. In addition, the issuers of Depositary Receipts may discontinue issuing new Depositary Receipts and withdraw existing Depositary Receipts at any time, which may result in costs and delays in the distribution of the underlying assets to the Fund and may negatively impact the Fund's performance. However, by investing in Depositary Receipts, such as ADRs, which are quoted in U.S. dollars, the Fund may avoid currency risks during the settlement period for purchases and sales.

Future Developments

The Fund may take advantage of opportunities in the area of options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts, warrants, swaps and any other investments that are not presently contemplated for use or that are not currently available, but which may be developed, to the extent such investments are considered suitable for the Fund by the Adviser.

Futures Contracts and Options

The Fund may enter into futures contracts, options and options on futures contracts. Futures contracts generally provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified instrument, index or commodity at a specified future time and at a specified price. Stock index futures contracts are settled daily with a payment by one party to the other of a cash amount based on the difference between the level of the stock index specified in the contract from one day to the next. Futures contracts are standardized as to maturity date and underlying instrument and are traded on futures exchanges.

An option is a contract that provides the holder the right to buy or sell shares at a fixed price, within a specified period of time. A call option gives the option holder the right to purchase the underlying security from the option writer at the option exercise price at any time prior to the expiration of the option. A put option gives the option holder the right to sell the underlying security to the option writer at the option exercise price at any time prior to the expiration of the option.

Although futures contracts (other than cash settled futures contracts including most stock index futures contracts) by their terms call for actual delivery or acceptance of the underlying instrument or commodity, in most cases the contracts are closed out before the maturity date without the making or taking of delivery. Closing out an open futures position is done by taking an opposite position ("buying" a contract which has previously been "sold" or "selling" a contract previously "purchased") in an identical contract to terminate the position. Brokerage commissions are incurred when a futures contract position is opened or closed.

Futures traders are required to make a good faith margin deposit in cash or government securities with a broker or custodian to initiate and maintain open positions in futures contracts. A margin deposit is intended to assure completion of the contract (delivery or acceptance of the underlying instrument or commodity or payment of the cash settlement amount) if it is not terminated prior to the specified delivery date. Brokers may establish deposit requirements which are higher than the exchange minimums. Futures contracts are customarily purchased and sold on margin deposits which may range upward from less than 5% of the value of the contract being traded.

After a futures contract position is opened, the value of the contract is marked-to-market daily. If the futures contract price changes to the extent that the margin on deposit does not satisfy margin requirements, payment of additional "variation" margin will be required.

Conversely, a change in the contract value may reduce the required margin, resulting in a repayment of excess margin to the contract holder. Variation margin payments are made to and from the futures broker for as long as the contract remains open. The Fund expects to earn interest income on its margin deposits.

Positions in futures contracts and options may be closed out only on an exchange that provides a secondary market therefor. However, there can be no assurance that a liquid secondary market will exist for any particular futures contract or option at any specific time. Thus, it may not be possible to close a futures or options position. Because futures contracts project price levels in the future and not current levels of valuation, market circumstances may result in a discrepancy between the price of the future and the movement in the specified instrument, index or commodity. In the event of adverse price movements, the Fund would continue to be required to make daily cash payments to maintain its required margin. In such situations, if the Fund has insufficient cash, it may have to sell portfolio securities to meet daily margin requirements at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so. In addition, the Fund may be required to make delivery of the instruments underlying futures contracts it has sold.

The risk of loss in trading futures contracts or uncovered call options in some strategies (e.g., selling uncovered stock index futures contracts) is potentially unlimited. The risk of a futures position may still be large as traditionally measured due to the low margin deposits required. In many cases, a relatively small price movement in a futures contract may result in immediate and substantial loss or gain to the investor relative to the size of a required margin deposit.

There is also the risk of loss by the Fund of margin deposits in the event of bankruptcy of a broker with whom the Fund has an open position in the futures contract or option. The purchase of put or call options could be based upon predictions as to anticipated trends, which could prove to be incorrect and a part or all of the premium paid therefore could be lost.

Certain financial futures exchanges limit the amount of fluctuation permitted in futures contract prices during a single trading day. The daily limit establishes the maximum amount that the price of a futures contract may vary either up or down from the previous day's settlement price at the end of a trading session. Once the daily limit has been reached in a particular type of contract, no trades may be made on that day at a price beyond that limit. The daily limit governs only price movement during a particular trading day and therefore does not limit potential losses, because the limit may prevent the liquidation of unfavorable positions. It is possible that futures contract prices could move to the daily limit for several consecutive trading days with little or no trading, thereby preventing prompt liquidation of future positions and subjecting the Fund to substantial losses. In the event of adverse price movements, the Fund may be required to make additional margin payments.

Lending Portfolio Securities

The Fund may lend portfolio securities to certain creditworthy borrowers. The aggregate market value of securities loaned by the Fund will not exceed 331∕3% of the total assets of the Fund, including collateral received with respect to such loans, as determined immediately after borrowing. The borrowers provide collateral that is maintained in an amount at least equal to the current market value of the securities loaned. The following conditions must be met whenever the Fund's portfolio securities are loaned: (i) the Fund must require the borrower to increase the collateral so that it remains equal to at least 100% of the value of the portfolio securities loaned whenever the market value of the securities loaned rises above the current level of such collateral; (ii) the Fund must be able to terminate the loan at any time; (iii) the Fund must receive reasonable interest on the loan, as well as any dividends, interest or other distributions payable on the loaned securities, and any increase in market value; (iv) the Fund may pay only reasonable custodian fees in connection with the loan; and (v) the Fund's Board of Trustees ("Board") must be able to recall the Fund's loan to vote the securities if such vote involves a material event that may adversely affect the investment. The Fund receives the value of any interest or cash or non-cash distributions paid on the loaned securities.

With respect to loans that are collateralized by cash, the borrower will be entitled to receive a fee based on the amount of cash collateral. The Fund is compensated by the difference between the amount earned on the reinvestment of cash collateral and the fee paid to the borrower. In the case of collateral other than cash, the Fund is compensated by a fee paid by the borrower equal to a percentage of the market value of the loaned securities. Any cash collateral may be reinvested in certain short-term instruments either directly on behalf of the Fund or through one or more joint accounts or money market funds; such reinvestments are subject to investment risk. The Fund may pay a part of the interest earned from the investment of collateral, or other fee, to an unaffiliated third party for acting as the Fund's securities lending agent.

Securities lending involves exposure to certain risks, including operational risk (i.e., the risk of losses resulting from problems in the settlement and accounting process), "gap" risk (i.e., the risk of a mismatch between the return on cash collateral reinvestments and the fees the Fund has agreed to pay a borrower), and credit, legal, counterparty and market risk. If a securities lending counterparty were to default, the Fund would be subject to the risk of a possible delay in receiving collateral or in recovering the loaned securities, or to a possible loss of rights in the collateral. In the event a borrower does not return the Fund's securities as agreed, the Fund may experience losses if the proceeds received from liquidating the collateral do not at least equal the value of the loaned security at the time the collateral is liquidated plus the transaction costs incurred in purchasing replacement securities. This event could trigger adverse tax consequences for the Fund. Substitute payments for dividends received by the Fund for securities lent out by the Fund will not be qualified dividend income. The Fund takes the tax effects of this difference into account in their securities lending program.

The Fund pays a portion of the interest or fees earned from securities lending to a borrower as described above and to a securities lending agent who administers the lending program in accordance with guidelines approved by the Board.

Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may invest in repurchase agreements with commercial banks, brokers or dealers and to invest securities lending cash collateral. A repurchase agreement is an agreement under which the Fund acquires a money market instrument (generally a security issued by the U.S. Government or an agency thereof, a banker's acceptance or a certificate of deposit) from a seller, subject to resale to the seller at an agreed upon price and date (normally, the next business day). A repurchase agreement may be considered a loan collateralized by securities. The resale price reflects an agreed upon interest rate effective for the period the instrument is held by the Fund and is unrelated to the interest rate on the underlying instrument.

In these repurchase agreement transactions, the securities acquired by the Fund (including accrued interest earned thereon) must have a total value at least equal to the value of the repurchase agreement and are held by the Fund's custodian bank until repurchased. In addition, the Board has established guidelines and standards for review of the creditworthiness of any bank, broker or dealer counterparty to a repurchase agreement with the Fund. The Fund's repurchase agreements will be fully collateralized at all times with high-quality, liquid assets maintained by a designated third party in a segregated account.

The use of repurchase agreements involves certain risks. For example, if the other party to the agreement defaults on its obligation to repurchase the underlying security, as a result of bankruptcy or otherwise, the Fund will seek to dispose of such security, which could involve costs, delays or loss upon disposition. If the other party to the agreement becomes insolvent and subject to liquidation or reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code or other laws, a court may determine that the underlying security is collateral not within the control of the Fund and, therefore, the Fund may incur delays in disposing of the security and/or may not be able to substantiate its interest in the underlying security and may be deemed an unsecured creditor of the other party to the agreement.

The resale price reflects the purchase price plus an agreed upon market rate of interest. The collateral is marked-to-market daily.

Securities of Other Investment Companies

The Fund may invest in the securities of other investment companies, foreign or domestic, including those advised by the Adviser. As a result, the Fund will indirectly be exposed to the risks of an investment in the underlying funds. Shares of other funds have many of the same risks as direct investments in common stocks or bonds. In addition, the value of the Fund's shares is expected to rise and fall as the value of the underlying investment rises and falls. The market value of such funds' shares may differ from the NAV of the particular fund. As a shareholder in a fund, the Fund would bear its ratable share of that entity's expenses. At the same time, the Fund would continue to pay its own investment management fees and other expenses. As a result, the Fund and its shareholders will be absorbing additional fees with respect to investments in other funds. To the extent that the Fund invests in affiliated underlying funds, the Adviser has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee payable by the Fund in an amount equal to the management fee it earns as an investment adviser to the any affiliated underlying fund in which the Fund invests.

Temporary Defensive Position

The Fund may take a temporary defensive position (investments in cash or cash equivalents) in response to adverse market, economic, political or other conditions. Cash equivalents include short-term high quality debt securities and money market instruments such as commercial paper, certificates of deposit, bankers' acceptances, U.S. Government securities, repurchase agreements and shares of short-term fixed income or money market funds.

Cyber Security

The Fund and its service providers are susceptible to cyber security risks that include, among other things, theft, unauthorized monitoring, release, misuse, loss, destruction or corruption of confidential and highly restricted data; denial of service attacks; unauthorized access to relevant systems, compromises to networks or devices that the Fund and its service providers use to service the Fund's operations; or operational disruption or failures in the physical infrastructure or operating systems that support the Fund and its service providers. Cyber attacks against and/or security breakdowns of the Fund or its service providers may adversely impact the Fund and its shareholders, potentially resulting in, among other things, financial losses; the inability of Fund shareholders to transact business and the Fund to process transactions; inability to calculate the Fund's NAV; violations of applicable privacy and other laws; regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, reimbursement or other compensation costs; and/or additional compliance costs. The Fund may incur additional costs for cyber security risk management and remediation purposes. In addition, cyber security risks may also impact issuers of securities in which the Fund invests, which may cause the Fund's investment in such issuers to lose value. There can be no assurance that the Fund or its service providers will not suffer losses relating to cyber attacks and/or other information security breaches in the future.

Commodity Pool Operator Exclusion

The Adviser has elected to claim an exclusion from the definition of "commodity pool operator" ("CPO") under the Commodity Exchange Act and the rules of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") with respect to the Fund.

The terms of the CPO exclusion require the Fund, among other things, to adhere to certain limits on its investments in "commodity interests." Commodity interests include commodity futures, commodity options and certain swaps, which in turn include nondeliverable currency forwards, as further described below. Because the Adviser and the Fund intend to comply with the terms of the CPO exclusion, the Fund may, in the future, need to adjust its investment strategies, consistent with its investment goal, to limit its investments in these types of instruments. The Fund is not intended as a vehicle for trading in the commodity futures, commodity options or swaps markets. The CFTC has neither reviewed nor approved the Adviser's reliance on these exclusions, or the Fund, its investment strategies, or this SAI.

Generally, the exclusion from CPO regulation on which the Adviser relies requires the Fund to meet one of the following tests for its commodity interest positions, other than positions entered into for bona fide hedging purposes (as defined in the rules of the CFTC): either (1) the aggregate initial margin and premiums required to establish the Fund's positions in commodity interests may not exceed 5% of the liquidation value of the Fund's portfolio (after taking into account unrealized profits and unrealized losses on any such positions); or (2) the aggregate net notional value of the Fund's commodity interest positions, determined at the time the most recent such position was established, may not exceed the liquidation value of the Fund's portfolio (after taking into account unrealized profits and unrealized losses on any such positions). In addition to meeting one of these trading limitations, the Fund may not market itself as a commodity pool or otherwise as a vehicle for trading in the commodity futures, commodity options or swaps markets. If, in the future, the Fund can no longer satisfy these requirements, the Adviser would withdraw its notice claiming an exclusion from the definition of a CPO, and the Adviser would be subject to registration and regulation as a "commodity trading advisor" with respect to the Fund; in that case, the Adviser and the Fund would need to comply with all applicable CFTC disclosure, reporting, operational and other regulations, which could increase Fund expenses.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

The Fund has adopted the following investment restrictions as fundamental policies. These restrictions cannot be changed with respect to the Fund without the approval of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting securities. For purposes of the 1940 Act, a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund means the vote, at an annual or a special meeting of the security holders of the Fund, of the lesser of (1) 67% or more of the voting securities of the Fund present at such meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund are present or represented by proxy, or (2) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund. Under these restrictions, except as noted below, the Fund may not:

1.	Make loans, except as permitted under the 1940 Act, and as interpreted or modified by regulation from time to time;

2.	Borrow money, except as permitted under the 1940 Act, and as interpreted or modified by regulation from time to time;

3.	Issue senior securities, except as permitted under the 1940 Act, and as interpreted or modified by regulation from time to time;

4.	Purchase or sell real estate, except as permitted under the 1940 Act, and as interpreted or modified by regulation from time to time;

5.	Engage in the business of underwriting securities issued by others, except as permitted under the 1940 Act, and as interpreted or modified by regulation from time to time;

6.

Purchase or sell commodities, unless acquired as a result of owning securities or other instruments, but it may purchase, sell or enter into financial options and futures, forward and spot currency contracts, swap transactions and other financial contracts or derivative instruments and may invest in securities or other instruments backed by commodities; and

7.

Purchase any security, if, as a result of that purchase, the Fund would be concentrated in securities of issuers having their principal business activities in the same industry or group of industries, except the Fund will concentrate in securities of issuers having their principal business activities in groups of industries in the technology sector. This concentration limit does not apply to securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities.

In addition, the Fund has adopted a fundamental policy that it will make quarterly repurchase offers pursuant to Rule 23c-3 of the 1940 Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time, for between 5% and 25% of the Shares outstanding at NAV, unless suspended or postponed in accordance with regulatory requirements, and each repurchase pricing shall occur no later than the 14th day after the Repurchase Request Deadline (as defined in the Prospectus), or the next business day if the 14th day is not a business day.

With respect to fundamental policy (7) above, if a percentage limitation is adhered to at the time of investment or contract, a later increase or decrease in percentage resulting from any change in value or total or net assets will not result in a violation of such restriction.

TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS OF THE FUND

Trustees of the Fund

The Board of the Fund consists of four Trustees, three of whom are not "interested persons" (as defined in the 1940 Act), of the Fund ("Independent Trustees"). Darlene T. DeRemer, an Independent Trustee, serves as Chair of the Board. The Board is responsible for overseeing the management and operations of the Fund, including general oversight of the duties performed by the Adviser and other service providers to the Fund. The Adviser is responsible for the day-to-day administration and business affairs of the Fund.

The Board believes that each Trustee's experience, qualifications, attributes or skills on an individual basis and in combination with those of the other Trustees lead to the conclusion that the Board possesses the requisite skills and attributes to carry out its oversight responsibilities with respect to the Fund. The Board believes that the Trustees' ability to review, critically evaluate, question and discuss information provided to them, to interact effectively with the Adviser, other service providers, counsel and independent auditors, and to exercise effective business judgment in the performance of their duties, support this conclusion. The Board also has considered the following experience, qualifications, attributes and/or skills, among others, of its members in reaching its conclusion: such person's character and integrity; such person's willingness to serve and willingness and ability to commit the time necessary to perform the duties of a Trustee; and as to each Trustee other than Catherine D. Wood, his or her status as not being an "interested person" (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund.

References to the experience, qualifications, attributes and skills of Trustees are pursuant to requirements of the SEC, do not constitute holding out of the Board or any Trustee as having any special expertise or experience, and shall not impose any greater responsibility or liability on any such person or on the Board by reason thereof.

(1)	The address for each officer is 200 Central Avenue, Suite 220, St. Petersburg, Florida 33701.

(2)	Officers are elected yearly by the Trustees.

The Board has an Audit Committee, consisting of three Trustees who are Independent Trustees. Scott R. Chichester currently serves as a member of the Audit Committee and has been designated as an "audit committee financial expert" as defined under Item 407 of Regulation S-K of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"). Mr. Chichester is the Chair of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has the responsibility, among other things, to: (i) oversee the accounting and financial reporting processes of the Fund and its internal control over financial reporting; (ii) oversee the quality and integrity of the Fund's financial statements and the independent audit thereof; (iii) oversee or, as appropriate, assist the Board's oversight of the Fund's compliance with legal and regulatory requirements that relate to the Fund's accounting and financial reporting, internal control over financial reporting and independent audit; (iv) approve prior to appointment the engagement of the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm and, in connection therewith, to review and evaluate the qualifications, independence and performance of the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm; and (v) act as a liaison between the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm and the full Board. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2024, the Audit Committee held 3 meetings.

The Board has a Nominating Committee, consisting of three Trustees who are Independent Trustees. Robert G. Zack is the Chair of the Nominating Committee. The Nominating Committee has the responsibility, among other things, for the selection and nomination of candidates to serve as Trustees of the Trust. The Nominating Committee may also recommend the removal of any Trustee. Only Independent Trustees may serve as members of the Nominating Committee. The Nominating Committee will consider shareholder recommendations for nominees to serve as Trustees of the Trust. Recommendations, along with appropriate background material concerning the candidate that demonstrates his or her ability to serve as an Independent Trustee, should be submitted to the Chair of the Nominating Committee at the address maintained for communications with Independent Trustees. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2024, the Nominating Committee did not hold any meetings.

The Board has determined that its leadership structure is appropriate given the business and nature of the Fund. In connection with its determination, the Board considered that the Chair of the Board is an Independent Trustee. The Chair of the Board can play an important role in setting the agenda of the Board and also serves as a key point person for dealings between management and the other Independent Trustees. The Independent Trustees believe that the Chair's independence facilitates meaningful dialogue between the Adviser and the Independent Trustees. The Board also considered that the Chair of the Audit Committee is an Independent Trustee, which yields similar benefits with respect to the functions and activities of the various Board committees. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet outside the presence of management. The Board has determined that its committees help ensure that the Fund has effective and independent governance and oversight. The Board also believes that its leadership structure facilitates the orderly and efficient flow of information to the Independent Trustees from management of the Fund, including the Adviser. The Board reviews its structure on an annual basis.

As an integral part of its responsibility for oversight of the Fund in the interests of shareholders, the Board, as a general matter, oversees risk management of the Fund's investment programs and business affairs. The function of the Board with respect to risk management is one of oversight and not active involvement in, or coordination of, day-to-day risk management activities for the Fund. The Board recognizes that not all risks that may affect the Fund can be identified, that it may not be practical or cost-effective to eliminate or mitigate certain risks, that it may be necessary to bear certain risks (such as investment-related risks) to achieve the Fund's goals, and that the processes, procedures and controls employed to address certain risks may be limited in their effectiveness. Moreover, reports received by the Trustees that may relate to risk management matters are typically summaries of the relevant information.

The Board exercises oversight of the risk management process primarily through the Audit Committee, and through oversight by the Board itself. The Fund faces a number of risks, such as investment-related and compliance risks. The Adviser's personnel seek to identify and address risks, i.e., events or circumstances that could have material adverse effects on the business, operations, shareholder services, investment performance or reputation of the Fund. Under the overall oversight by the Board or the applicable committee of the Board, the Fund and the Adviser employ a variety of processes, procedures and controls to identify such possible events or circumstances, to lessen the probability of their occurrence and/or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur. Different processes, procedures and controls are employed with respect to different types of risks. Various personnel, including the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer ("CCO"), as well as various personnel of the Adviser and other service providers such as the Fund's independent accountants, may report to the Audit Committee and/or to the Board with respect to various aspects of risk management, as well as events and circumstances that have arisen and responses thereto.

As of December 31, 2023, for each Trustee, the dollar range of equity securities beneficially owned by the Trustee in the Fund and in all registered investment companies advised by the Adviser that are overseen by the Trustee is shown below.

Trustee			Dollar Range of Equity Securities in the Fund			Aggregate Dollar Range of Equity Securities in All Registered Investment Companies Overseen by Trustee in The Family of Investment Companies
Scott R. Chichester			None			None
Darlene T. DeRemer			None			Over $100,000
Catherine D. Wood			Over $100,000			Over $100,000
Robert G. Zack			$1-$10,000			Over $100,000

As to each Independent Trustee and his or her immediate family members, no person owned beneficially or of record securities in the Adviser or the Distributor, or a person (other than a registered investment company) directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Adviser of the Fund.

MANAGEMENT

The following information supplements and should be read in conjunction with the section in the Prospectus entitled "Management of the Fund."

Investment Adviser and Manager

ARK acts as investment adviser to the Fund and, subject to the general oversight by the Board, is responsible for the day-to-day investment management of the Fund pursuant to an investment advisory agreement between the Fund and the Adviser ("Investment Advisory Agreement"). The Adviser is a Delaware limited liability company with headquarters at 200 Central Avenue, Suite 220, St. Petersburg, Florida 33701.

The Investment Advisory Agreement with respect to the Fund is subject to annual approval by (1) the Board or (2) a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund, provided that in either event such continuance also is approved by a majority of the Board who are not interested persons (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund by a vote cast at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. The Investment Advisory Agreement is terminable without penalty, on 60 days' notice, by the Board or by a vote of the holders of a majority (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund's outstanding voting securities. The Investment Advisory Agreement is also terminable upon 60 days' notice by the Adviser and will terminate automatically in the event of its assignment (as defined in the 1940 Act). Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Fund has agreed to indemnify and hold the Adviser harmless for certain losses and liabilities, including certain liabilities arising under the federal securities laws, unless such loss or liability results from the Adviser's willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or is the result of the Adviser's reckless disregard of its duties and obligations.

Administrator, Custodian and Transfer Agent

The Fund and The Bank of New York Mellon, located at 240 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10286 ("Administrator"), have entered into a fund administration and accounting agreement ("Administration Agreement"). Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator provides the Fund with administrative and fund accounting services, including providing certain operational, clerical, recordkeeping and/or bookkeeping services.

The Administration Agreement provides that the Administrator shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Fund in connection with the matters to which the Administration Agreement relates, except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Administrator in the performance of its duties or from reckless disregard by it of its duties and obligations thereunder.

The Fund pays the Administrator for its services under the Administration Agreement. In addition, the Fund bears the expense for certain administrative services that the Administrator provides and will reimburse the Administrator for the cost of such services. See "Fund Expenses" below.

The Bank of New York Mellon ("Custodian"), located at 240 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10286, serves as custodian for the Fund pursuant to a custody agreement between the Fund and the Custodian. As the Fund's custodian, the Custodian holds the Fund's assets. The Custodian may be reimbursed by the Fund for its out-of-pocket expenses. BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc., located at 240 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10286, serves as the Fund's transfer agent ("Transfer Agent") pursuant to a transfer agency and service agreement.

Distribution

Foreside Fund Services, LLC, located at Three Canal Plaza, Suite 100, Portland, Maine 04101 (the "Distributor"), serves as the Fund's principal underwriter and acts as the distributor of the Fund's Shares on a best efforts basis, subject to various conditions. The Fund's Shares are offered for sale through the Distributor at NAV. The Distributor also may enter into broker-dealer selling agreements with other broker dealers for the sale and distribution of the Fund's Shares.

The Distributor is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of the Fund's Shares, but will use its best efforts to solicit orders for the sale of the Shares. Shares of the Fund will not be listed on any national securities exchange and the Distributor will not act as a market maker in Fund Shares.

The Fund's Shares being offered hereby will be primarily offered and distributed by the Distributor and its associated persons through investment platforms and financial intermediaries.

The offering and distribution of the Fund's Shares (and all associated activities) will be conducted by the Distributor and its associated persons. The Fund will not pay investment platforms or financial intermediaries any sales commissions for hosting this offering on such platforms; however, financial intermediaries may earn Service Fees as discussed in the prospectus. This offering is being made on a "best efforts" basis. Other than the Service Fees (which are indirectly borne by the Fund's shareholders), there is no fee imposed by the Fund relating to such investment platforms or financial intermediaries. Investment platforms and financial intermediaries may charge fees for the services they provide to you in connection with processing your transaction order or maintaining your account with them.

Conflicts of Interest

The Adviser has a fiduciary duty to act in the best of interest of its clients, to treat all clients equitably, and to disclose all material facts, including potential conflicts of interest. Potential conflicts of interest may arise from time to time between a portfolio manager's management of the investments of the Fund, on the one hand, and the management of other accounts, on the other ("side-by-side management"). Since the Adviser manages other accounts other than the Fund, its duty of loyalty to one client may conflict with its duty of loyalty to another client, particularly with respect to allocating trades. Other accounts managed by the Adviser's portfolio manager might have similar investment objectives or strategies as the Fund or otherwise hold, purchase, or sell securities that are eligible to be held, purchased or sold by the Fund. The other accounts might also have different investment objectives or strategies as the Fund. Based on this relationship, the potential conflicts of interest that may arise from the Adviser's side-by-side management of the Fund and other accounts include: limitation of trading based on the Adviser's knowledge of Fund and/or other account trading; inability to take advantage of certain investment opportunities; possibility of contrary positions amongst the Fund and other accounts; issues related to aggregation and allocation of trades; and potential exposure to soft dollars.

To address and mitigate the potential conflicts of interest referenced above, the Adviser has adopted and implemented written policies and procedures to provide for fair and equitable treatment of all its clients. These policies and procedures include: aggregation and allocation of trades; insider trading; side-by-side management; soft dollars; and portfolio management/trading. Also, the Adviser has adopted and implemented a Code of Ethics that prohibits Adviser employees and "access persons" (as defined by the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended) from engaging in prohibited personal securities transactions and fraudulent behavior such as insider-trading. According to its policies and procedures, the Adviser, among other things, must:

1.	Treat each client fairly as to the securities purchased or sold for its account.

2.	Treat each client fairly with respect to priority of execution of orders.

3.	Treat each client fairly in the aggregation and allocation of investment opportunities.

4.	Review and affirm that all client trading is in compliance with each client's investment objective.

5.	Fully disclose the nature and extent of the conflict prior to the transaction, including any direct or indirect compensation the Adviser receives in connection with the transaction.

6.	Have a reasonable belief that the investment is in the client's best interest; and

7.	Ensure compliance with any relevant procedures set forth in the Adviser's Code of Ethics.

Finally, the Adviser has a designated CCO who is responsible for administering the Adviser's policies and procedures, which includes regular reviews of and reports on the adequacy of the Adviser's compliance program to senior management and the Fund's Board of Trustees.

Portfolio Manager Compensation

The Adviser believes that its compensation program is competitively positioned to attract and retain high-caliber investment professionals. Catherine D. Wood, Chief Investment Officer and principal owner of the Adviser, does not receive a salary, but as the significant equity holder of ARK, may receive earnings from ARK. Ms. Wood may also receive a discretionary bonus based on the quality of the advisory services and the overall financial performance of ARK. As Chief Investment Officer and principal owner of the Adviser and portfolio manager of the Fund, Catherine D. Wood may benefit economically from any profits generated by the Adviser.

Portfolio Manager Share Ownership

As of July 31, 2024, the dollar range of equity securities of the Fund beneficially owned by the Fund's portfolio manager was as follows:

Name			Aggregate Dollar Range of Equity Securities in the Fund(1)
Catherine D. Wood			Over $1,000,000

⁽¹⁾ Dollar ranges are as follows: None, $1 - $10,000, $10,001 - $50,000, $50,001 - $100,000, $100,001 - $500,000, $500,001 - $1,000,000 or Over $1,000,000

CODE OF ETHICS

The Fund, the Adviser, and Foreside Fund Services, LLC have each adopted a Code of Ethics pursuant to Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act, designed to monitor personal securities transactions by their personnel ("Personnel"). The Code of Ethics for the Adviser and the Fund requires that all trading in securities that are being purchased or sold, or are being considered for purchase or sale, by the Fund must be approved in advance by the Adviser's CCO. Approval will be granted if the security has not been purchased or sold or recommended for purchase or sale for the Fund on the day that the Personnel of the Adviser or the Adviser requests pre-clearance, or otherwise if it is determined that the personal trading activity will not have a negative or appreciable impact on the price or market of the security, or is of such a nature that it does not present the dangers or potential for abuses that are likely to result in harm or detriment to the Fund. At the end of each calendar quarter, all Personnel must file a report of all transactions entered into during the quarter. These reports are reviewed by a senior officer of the Adviser.

Generally, all Personnel must obtain approval prior to conducting any transaction in securities. Independent Trustees, however, are not required to obtain prior approval of personal securities transactions. Personnel may purchase securities in an initial public offering or private placement, provided that he or she obtains preclearance of the purchase and makes certain representations.

BROKERAGE ALLOCATION AND OTHER PRACTICES

When selecting brokers and dealers to handle the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, the Adviser's general policy is to use its best efforts to seek to obtain best execution of all portfolio transactions, taking into account various factors such as security price, commission rate, size and difficulty of the order and timing of the transaction, and the experience, reliability, creditworthiness, financial condition and capabilities of the broker-dealer, among others. In seeking best execution, the Adviser need not select the broker with the lowest available commission rate where it believes that a broker or dealer charging a higher commission rate would offer better overall execution, including for example greater reliability or better price or execution. The Fund will not deal with affiliates in principal transactions unless permitted by exemptive order or applicable rule or regulation. The Adviser owes a duty to its clients to seek best execution on trades effected.

As permitted by Section 28(e) of the Exchange Act, the Adviser can cause a client, including the Fund, to pay a broker-dealer that provides "brokerage and research services" (as defined in the Exchange Act) a disclosed commission for effecting a securities transaction for the client in excess of the commission which another broker-dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction without the brokerage and research services, if the Adviser determines in good faith that the commission is reasonable given the brokerage and research services provided by the broker-dealer. These arrangements are known as "soft dollar" arrangements and are common in the financial services industry. These services benefit the Adviser because the Adviser does not need to produce or pay for such research services, and as a result, the receipt of research in exchange for soft dollars creates a conflict of interest. The Adviser is incentivized to select or recommend a broker-dealer based on the Adviser's interest in receiving research services, among the other factors that the Adviser considers, and this can conflict with the Fund's interest to receive best execution. Research or brokerage services the Adviser receives for conducting Fund transactions can benefit other accounts and it is possible that a particular account, including the Fund, will not benefit from services obtained related to transactions conducted through that account. Additionally, certain clients, including the Fund, could bear more of the cost of soft dollar arrangements than other clients.

The Adviser assumes general supervision over placing orders on behalf of the Fund for the purchase or sale of portfolio securities. The Adviser determines whether the purchase or sale of a particular security is appropriate for more than one account and whether it can aggregate client orders into one order ("Aggregate Orders") for execution purposes. Aggregate Orders can avoid the adverse effect on a security's price when simultaneous separate and competing orders are placed and can reduce trading and brokerage costs. When the use of Aggregate Orders is not permitted or is otherwise impractical, clients, including the Fund, might not receive as favorable executions as they might otherwise receive from Aggregate Orders, and might pay more for such trades.

When allocating Aggregate Orders (purchases and sales) to individual accounts, it is the Adviser's policy to treat all clients fairly and achieve an equitable distribution of Aggregate Orders over time, considering, among other things, the investment objectives, restrictions and other circumstances specific to each client. Aggregate Orders are typically assigned an initial preallocation to each participating client that takes into consideration various factors. Aggregate Orders are typically allocated pro rata based on the initial preallocation. In the event of a partial fill of an Aggregate Order, accounts will receive an approximate pro rata allocation based on the initial preallocation if there are enough shares executed for each account. However, the Adviser can deviate from a pro rata allocation of Aggregate Orders in certain circumstances if all client accounts receive fair and equitable treatment over time.

The Fund and the Adviser's other clients may be eligible to purchase securities in initial public offerings ("IPOs") or "new issues" ("New Issues"). The Adviser generally will allocate securities purchased through an IPO or New Issues on a pro rata basis for each eligible account in the relevant investment strategy. In situations where the securities allotment is insufficient to provide meaningful position sizes, the Adviser can allocate the securities on a rotating basis at the Adviser's discretion. The Adviser's allocations will ensure that over time, all eligible accounts will have an equitable opportunity to participate in IPOs and New Issues. Because the market for IPOs is uneven, however, the ability, or inability to participate in IPO allocations can have a potentially significant effect on the Fund's performance, and the shares themselves are often subject to greater volatility.

Portfolio turnover may vary from year to year, as well as within a year. High turnover rates are likely to result in comparatively greater brokerage expenses and taxable distributions. The overall reasonableness of brokerage commissions is evaluated by the Adviser based upon its knowledge of available information as to the general level of commissions paid by other institutional investors for comparable services.

For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2024, the Fund paid $245,867 in brokerage commissions.

PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS DISCLOSURE

The Fund publishes on its website (ark-ventures.com) complete portfolio holdings for the Fund as of the end of each month subject to a 1 business-day lag between the date of the information and the date on which the information is disclosed and further subject to certain portfolio holdings being anonymized until such holdings are required to be disclosed in a shareholder report or a N-PORT filing. The Fund publishes on its website (ark-ventures.com) complete portfolio holdings for the Fund as of the end of each fiscal quarter subject to a 60 calendar-day lag between the date of the information and the date on which the information is disclosed. The Fund may however, at its discretion, publish these holdings earlier than 60 calendar days. In addition, the Fund may publish on its website certain purchases and sales of the Fund's portfolio holdings subject to a 1 business-day lag between the date of the information and the date on which the information is disclosed.

APPENDIX A

ARK INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT LLC

PROXY VOTING POLICY

I.	Introduction

ARK Investment Management LLC ("Adviser") has adopted this Proxy Voting Policy ("Policy") pursuant to Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended ("Advisers Act"), Rule 30b1-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and other fiduciary obligations. The Policy is designed to provide guidance to the Investment Team¹ and others in discharging the Adviser's proxy voting duty and to seek to ensure that proxies are voted in the best interests of the Adviser's clients.

II.	Statement of Policy

The Adviser recognizes its fiduciary responsibility to vote proxies solely in the client's best interests. The Adviser has adopted this Policy as a means reasonably designed to ensure that it votes shares owned by clients, which have delegated discretionary proxy voting authority to the Adviser, in the best interest of the clients considering all relevant factors and without regard to the interests of the Adviser or other related parties. For purposes of the Policy, the "best interests of clients" shall mean (unless with respect to a particular client, such client has otherwise specified) the clients' best economic interests over the long term - that is, the common interest that all clients share in seeing the value of a common investment (held by various clients or accounts) increase over time. The Adviser will accept directions from a client to vote the client's proxies in a manner that may result in such client's proxies being voted differently than the Adviser might vote proxies of other clients over which the Adviser has full discretionary proxy voting authority. The Adviser believes such client directions should be treated as customized proxy voting guidelines and this Policy does not generally apply to customized proxy voting guidelines.

It is the policy of the Adviser that complete and accurate disclosure concerning its proxy voting policies and procedures and proxy voting records, as required by the Advisers Act, be made available to those clients that have delegated discretionary proxy voting authority to the Adviser. Specific disclosure requirements as to investment company clients, such as the ARK Venture Fund and series of ARK ETF Trust ("Trusts"), are described in Section V hereof and in the Trust Compliance Manual. Exceptions to this Policy, including without limitation section V.3, may be granted with the prior written approval of the Adviser's Chief Compliance Officer or designee ("CCO").

III.	Procedures

Subject to the procedures set forth below, the Adviser maintains responsibility for reviewing all proxies individually and making final decisions based on the merits of each case.

1.	Use of Third-Party Proxy Service

In connection with its responsibilities expressed herein, the Adviser has retained Broadridge Investor Communication Solutions, Inc. ("Proxy Agent") to provide proxy voting agent services. The Proxy Agent is responsible for ensuring that all proxy ballots received for securities held in client accounts are submitted in a timely manner and also provides recordkeeping and reporting services.

As part of the Adviser's arrangement with the Proxy Agent it will provide research for each proxy and a recommendation as to how to vote on each issue based on the research of a third- party research provider (Glass, Lewis & Co., LLC) ("Research Provider") with regard to the individual facts and circumstances of the proxy issue and the Research Provider's application of its research findings to the Research Provider's guidelines. The Adviser will utilize the Research Provider's guidelines to help improve its understanding of the issues surrounding a company's proxy proposals. Absent a client directive to vote a proposal a certain way or a determination to override the Research Provider's recommendations, as set forth below, the Adviser will instruct the Proxy Agent to cast votes in accordance with the Research Provider's recommendations ("Recommendation"). The Adviser will ultimately follow the voting guidelines outlined in Sections 2 and 3 below.

¹ The Adviser's Portfolio Manager, Associate Portfolio Managers, Traders, Directors of Research and Research Analysts, including Research Associates and Analyst Interns, Director of Investment Analysis and Institutional Strategies and Chief Futurist.

2.	Voting Guidelines

The Adviser has approved proxy voting guidelines applicable to the subject matters of common proxy proposals (the "Approved Guidelines") based on the Research Provider's guidelines. As discussed in Section 3 of this Policy, depending on the subject matter of a proposal, the Adviser may vote in accordance with a Recommendation, override a Recommendation, and/or consider a proxy proposal on a case-by-case basis. The Adviser holds the right to override any Recommendation they deem fit, as long as it provides and documents valid reasoning. The decision to override remains the responsibility of each company's lead analyst, or his/her designee, as well as the Adviser's Portfolio Manager for its indexed products (collectively referred to as the "Lead").

Among other things, the Adviser may choose not to vote proxies under the following circumstances:

1.	if the effect on the clients' economic interests or the value of the portfolio holding is indeterminable or insignificant;

2.	if the cost of voting the proxy outweighs the possible benefit; or

3.	if a jurisdiction whose laws or regulations govern the voting of proxies with respect to the portfolio holding impose share blocking restrictions which prevent the Adviser from exercising its voting authority.

If for some other reason proxies are not voted for clients, the Adviser and/or a third-party will conduct an analysis to review whether the lack of voting would have had a material impact on the outcome of the vote. The Adviser will memorialize the basis for any decision to override a Recommendation or to abstain from voting, including the resolution of any conflicts, as further discussed below. Administrative matters beyond the Adviser's control can, at times, prevent the Adviser from voting proxies.

3.	Subject Matter Considerations

Determinations on how to vote proxies will depend largely on the subject matter of the ballot item. When determining how to vote proxies, the Adviser will be guided by the Approved Guidelines set forth below. These general policies are intended to promote a consistent approach to proxy voting.

1.	Executive, Director, and Employee Compensation

The Adviser supports efforts by companies to adopt compensation and incentive programs to attract and retain talent. In instances where the Recommendation is against a compensation-based proposal, the Lead will review the proposal and generally override the Recommendation.

2.

Auditors

The Adviser agrees with the Research Provider's guidelines to support auditor ratification except when the non-audit fees exceed the audit fees paid to the auditor. Therefore, the Adviser will vote in line with the Recommendation on auditor-focused proposals.

3.	Election of Directors and Committee Members

The Adviser predominately believes that company management is in the best position to choose which individuals to elect and re-elect to the company's Board of Directors and Committees. In instances where the Recommendation is against the election or re-election of a director, the Lead will review the proposal and the Research Provider's reasoning against the election and generally override the Recommendation.

4.	Shareholder Rights and Governance

The Adviser agrees with the Research Provider's guidelines to support proposals increasing or enhancing shareholder rights such as declassifying the board, eliminating supermajority voting, allowing shareholders to call a special meeting, and adopting majority voting for the election of directors. The Adviser also agrees with voting against proposals to eliminate or reduce shareholder rights. Therefore, the Adviser will generally vote in line with the Recommendation on shareholder rights proposals.

5.	Mergers, Acquisitions and Contested Meetings

The Adviser believes that proposals related to mergers, acquisitions and contested meetings should be examined on a case-by-case basis. The Lead will review the facts of each merger, acquisition and contested meeting ballot item and have the option to override the Recommendation if they deem fit.

6.	Shareholder Proposals: Environment

The Adviser believes that shareholder proposals asking the issuer to adopt a certain practice or take certain actions, to cause a particular practice or to cease certain practices or take certain actions related to a company's activities or operations should be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Such proposals include those seeking to cease a certain practice or take certain actions related to a company's activities or operations, seeking enhanced environmental disclosure and reporting, including those seeking sustainability reporting and disclosure about company's greenhouse gas emissions, as well as those advocating compliance with international environmental conventions and adherence to environmental principles. The Lead will review the facts of each environmental-based shareholder proposal and have the option to override the Recommendation if they deem fit in the best interests of the Adviser's clients.

7.	Shareholder Proposals: Social

The Adviser believes that shareholder proposals requesting companies adhere to labor or worker treatment codes of conduct, such as those espoused by the International Labor Organization, relating to labor standards, human rights conventions and corporate responsibility at large conventions and principles, should be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. The Adviser also agrees to review proposals seeking disclosure concerning the rights of workers, impact on local stakeholders, workers' rights and human rights in general and proposals seeking to increase reporting and review of a company's political and charitable spending as well as its lobbying practices on a case-by-case basis. The Lead will review the facts of each social-based shareholder proposal and have the option to override the Recommendation if they deem fit in the best interests of the Adviser's clients.

8.	Other Categories

The Research Provider's guidelines are not all-encompassing and do not include all subject matters. The items listed below are subject matters not covered by the Research Provider's guidelines, that the Adviser has drafted Approved Guidelines for:

a.	Employment/Service Agreements of Employees

Generally, the Adviser supports efforts by companies to adopt employment and service agreements for employees to attract and retain talent and will vote with management on such ballot items. In instances where the Recommendation is against a proposal regarding an employment and/or service agreement, the Lead will review the proposal and generally override the Recommendation.

b.	Approval/Ratification of Company Documents

The Adviser generally votes with the recommendation of company management on ballot items relating to the approval and/or ratification of company documents (i.e. financial statements, Articles of Association, bylaws) based on the view that management is typically in a better position to assess these matters. Therefore, in instances where the Recommendation is against a proposal regarding these items, the Lead will review the proposal and generally override the Recommendation.

c.	Approval of Allocation of Income and Dividends

The Adviser generally votes with the recommendation of company management on ballot items relating to the approval of allocation of income and dividends based on the view that management is typically in a better position to assess these matters. Therefore, in instances where the Recommendation is against a proposal regarding these items, the Lead will review the proposal and generally override the Recommendation.

If a ballot item is related to subject matter outside of those described above, the Lead will review the ballot item and Recommendation on a case-by-case basis and with the option to override the Recommendation if they deem fit.

The Adviser will review, and update, if necessary, the Approved Guidelines, periodically and upon major updates to the Research Provider's Recommendations.

4.	Addressing Material Conflicts of Interest

Prior to overriding a Recommendation, the Lead must memorialize the determination by filling out a Proxy Vote Override Form and submit it to the CCO for determination as to whether a potential material conflict of interest exists between the Adviser and the clients on whose behalf the proxy is to be voted ("Material Conflict"). Each Lead has an affirmative duty to disclose any potential Material Conflict known to them related to a proxy vote. Material Conflicts may exist in situations where the Adviser is called to vote on a proxy involving an issuer or proponent of a proxy proposal regarding the issuer where the Adviser also:

1.	manages the issuer's or proponent's pension plan; or

2.	manages money for an employee group.

Additional Material Conflicts may exist if an executive of the Adviser is a close relative of, or has a personal or business relationship with:

1.	an executive of the issuer or proponent;

2.	a director of the issuer or proponent;

3.	a person who is a candidate to be a director of the issuer;

4.	a participant in the proxy contest; or

5.	a proponent of a proxy proposal.

Material Conflicts based on business relationships will only be considered to the extent that the Lead has actual knowledge of such business relationships. Whether a relationship creates a Material Conflict will depend on the facts and circumstances. Even if these parties do not attempt to influence the Adviser with respect to voting, the value of the relationship to the Adviser can create a Material Conflict.

If the CCO determines that there is no potential Material Conflict, the Lead may override the Recommendation and the proxy issue can be voted as he/she determines is in the best interest of clients. If the CCO determines that there exists or may exist a Material Conflict, the CCO will consider the facts and circumstances of the pending proxy vote and the potential or actual Material Conflict and make a determination as to how to vote the proxy - i.e., whether to permit or deny the override of the Recommendation, or whether to take other action, such as delegating the proxy vote to an independent third party or obtaining voting instructions from clients. In considering the proxy vote and potential or actual Material Conflict, the CCO may consider the following factors:

1.	the percentage of outstanding securities of the issuer held on behalf of clients by the Adviser;

2.	the nature of the relationship of the issuer with the Adviser or its executive officers;

3.	whether there has been any attempt to directly or indirectly influence the lead analyst's decision;

4.	whether the direction (for or against) of the proposed vote would appear to benefit the Adviser or a related party; and

5.	whether an objective decision to vote in a certain way will still create a strong appearance of a conflict.

The Adviser may not abstain from voting any such proxy for the purpose of avoiding a potential conflict.

In the event the Research Provider has a conflict and thus, is unable to provide a Recommendation, the Lead will make a voting recommendation and complete a Proxy Vote Override Form as he/she determines is in the best interest of clients. The CCO will review the form and if the CCO determines that there is no potential or actual Material Conflict will instruct the Proxy Agent to vote the proxy issue. If the CCO determines that there exists or may exist a Material Conflict, the CCO will decide based on a consideration of the factors noted above.

5.

Lending

Currently, the Adviser does not participate in securities lending activities. Should the Adviser participate in these activities it will monitor upcoming meetings and call stock loans, if applicable, in anticipation of an important vote to be taken among holders of the securities or of the giving or withholding of their consent on a material matter affecting the investment. In determining whether to call stock loans, the relevant Lead shall consider whether the benefit to the client in voting the matter outweighs the benefit to the client in keeping the stock on loan.

IV.	Compliance Monitoring

The CCO will periodically review Proxy Agent reports of overrides to confirm that proper override and conflict checking procedures were followed.

V.	Client Reporting

1.

General

The Adviser will provide a copy of this Policy and the Research Provider's guidelines upon request from a client.

The Adviser will provide any client who makes a written or verbal request with a copy of a report disclosing how the Adviser voted securities held in that client's portfolio.

2.	Investment Company Clients

The Adviser will provide a copy of this Policy and the Research Provider's guidelines, and any material amendments thereto, to the board of directors/trustees of any registered investment company client, including each Trust's Board of Trustees.

The Adviser will report overrides, any exceptions to this Policy granted by the CCO, and the reasons therefore, to each Trust's Board of Trustees.

With respect to proxies voted on behalf of a registered investment company client, the Adviser will make Form N-PX available via the SEC's EDGAR database. Form N-PX discloses all proxies voted for such client for the trailing-12-month period ending on June 30. The report will generally contain the following information:

1.	the name of the issuer of the security;

2.	the security's CUSIP number;

3.	the security's ISIN number;

4.	the shareholder meeting date;

5.	a brief description of the matter voted on;

The Adviser will review that proper disclosure is made in each registered investment company client's Statement of Additional Information describing the policies and procedures used to determine how to vote proxies relating to such client's portfolio securities.

3.	Disclosure to Third Parties

Since the manner in which the Adviser votes proxies on behalf of its clients may be considered material non-public information, employees may not disclose the Adviser's actual vote (until voting results are made public) or the Adviser's voting intentions to any third party (except electronically to regulatory agencies) including, but not limited to, proxy solicitors, non-clients, and the media. The Adviser may communicate with other investors regarding a specific proposal but will not disclose its vote until such time as the subject issuer has publicly disclosed the voting results.

VI.	Recordkeeping

Either the Adviser or the Proxy Agent, or both, as indicated below, will maintain the following records:

1.	a copy of this Policy (Adviser);

2.	a copy of the Research Provider's guidelines (Adviser);

3.	a copy of each proxy statement received by the Adviser regarding client securities (Proxy Agent);

4.	a record of each vote cast by the Adviser on behalf of a client (Proxy Agent);

5.

a copy of all documents created by the Adviser that were material to making a decision on the proxy voting (or abstaining from voting) of client securities or that memorialize the basis for that decision including the resolution of any conflict, a copy of all Proxy Vote Override Forms and all supporting documents (Adviser); and

6.

a copy of each written request by a client for information on how the Adviser voted proxies on behalf of the client, as well as a copy of any written response by the Adviser to any request by a client for information on how the Adviser voted proxies on behalf of the client. Records of oral requests for information or oral responses will not be kept. (Adviser)

Such records must be maintained for at least six years.

VII.	Class Action

The Adviser may take action regarding class action suits, with respect to securities owned by its clients, for those clients which have delegated class action authority to the Adviser. In connection with its class action responsibilities, the Adviser has retained Broadridge Investor Communication Solutions, Inc. ("Broadridge") to provide class action services. Broadridge is authorized to:

1.	Provide asset recovery services covering global securities class action lawsuits and disgorgements;

2.	File the proof of claim and the required documentation directly with the claims administrator; and

3.	Collect and receive payment from the claims administrator and distribute as directed by the Adviser.

Item 30. Indemnification

Reference is made to Article VII of the Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust filed as an exhibit herewith.

In addition, the Registrant has obtained from a major insurance carrier a trustees' and officers' liability policy covering certain types of errors and omissions.

Pursuant to Rule 484 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Registrant furnishes the following undertaking: "Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue."

Item 33. Management Services

Item 34. Undertakings

1.

The Registrant undertakes to suspend the offering of its Shares until it amends the prospectus filed herewith if (1) subsequent to the effective date of its registration statement, the net asset value declines more than ten per-cent from its net asset value as of the effective date of the registration statement, or (2) the net asset value in-creases to an amount greater than its net proceeds as stated in the prospectus.

2.	Not applicable.

3.	The Registrant undertakes:

a.	To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement:

i.	To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

ii.	To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post- effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement; and

iii.	To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement

b.

That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of those securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

c.	To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering;

d.	that, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

i.	If the Registrant is relying on Rule 430B:

1.	Each prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

2.

Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (x), or (xi) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date; or

ii.

If the Registrant is subject to Rule 430C: each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

e.	That for the purpose of determining liability of the Registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of securities:

The undersigned Registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned Registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned Registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to the purchaser:

i.	Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned Registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act;

ii.	Free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned Registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned Registrants;

iii.	The portion of any other free writing prospectus or advertisement pursuant to Rule 482 under the Securities Act [17 CFR 230.482] relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned Registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned Registrant; and

iv.	Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned Registrant to the purchaser.

4.	The Registrant undertakes that:

a.

For the purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant under Rule 424(b)(1) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective; and

b.

For the purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of the securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

5.	Not applicable.
