Bloomberg Index Services Limited is the index provider for the Underlying Index (the Index Provider). The Fund will invest at least 80% of its Assets in securities included in the Underlying Index. "Assets" means net assets, plus the amount of borrowings for investment purposes. The Fund will provide shareholders with at least 60 days prior notice of any change to this policy. The Underlying Index is market capitalization weighted and is designed to measure the performance of U.S. dollar denominated investment grade corporate debt publicly issued in the U.S. domestic market.
