For each Fund’s SAI, the following replaces the first paragraph of disclosure for “Investment Professional Conflict of Interest Disclosure – Allocating Investment Opportunities and Order Aggregation.”
4
Allocating Investment Opportunities and Order Aggregation. The investment professionals at the [Adviser/Manager] routinely are required to select and allocate investment opportunities among accounts. The [Adviser/Manager] has adopted policies and procedures intended to address conflicts of interest relating to the allocation of investment opportunities. These policies and procedures are designed to ensure that information relevant to investment decisions is disseminated promptly within its portfolio management teams and investment opportunities are allocated equitably among different clients, subject to the exceptions noted below. The policies and procedures require, among other things, objective allocation for limited investment opportunities (e.g., on a rotational basis), and documentation and review of justifications for any decisions to make investments only for select accounts or in a manner disproportionate to the size of the account. Portfolio holdings, position sizes, and industry and sector exposures tend to be similar across similar accounts, which minimizes the potential for conflicts of interest relating to the allocation of investment opportunities. Nevertheless, access to portfolio funds or other investment opportunities (including IPOs) may be allocated differently among accounts due to the particular characteristics of an account, such as size of the account, cash position, tax status, risk tolerance and investment restrictions or for other reasons. Additional information about the [Adviser/Manager]’s policy relating to the allocation of investment opportunities may be found in the [Adviser/Manager]’s Form ADV, which is updated from time to time.

This Supplement should be read in conjunction with the SAIs for the Funds.
You should retain this Supplement with your SAI(s) for future reference.
