The Series will not invest directly in the Company. ADRs are receipts, issued by an American bank or trust issuer, which evidence ownership of underlying securities issued by a non-U.S. issuer. Generally, ADRs, issued in registered form, are designed for use in the U.S. securities markets./span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"spanbr//span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"The Series invests in the ADRs of the Company (the “Portfolio Securities”) and a currency swap (the “Currency Hedge Contract”) designed to hedge against fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Euro (“Local Currency”).

The Currency Hedge Contract is designed to minimize the impact of fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Local Currency. /span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"The Currency Hedge Contract will be marked to market and settled daily based on the notional value of the Currency Hedge Contract as of the settlement time on a particular day and the change in the value of the Local Currency in relation to the U.S. dollar (“Exchange Rate”) from the settlement time on the prior business day to the settlement time on the current business day. /span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"spanbr//span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"Changes in rates of the Local Currency compared to the U.S. dollar may negatively affect the value of the Currency Hedge Contract. If as a result of a change in the value of the Local Currency relative to the U.S. dollar, the Currency Hedge Contract increases in value, the counterparty will pay the Series an amount in U.S. dollars equal to the increase in the value of the Currency Hedge Contract. If the Currency Hedge Contract decreases in value, the Series will pay the counterparty an amount in U.S. dollars equal to the decrease in the value of the Currency Hedge Contract. In order to obtain any necessary amount of cash, the Manager may sell Portfolio Securities. The Series will maintain amounts not invested in ADRs in cash or cash equivalents, including money market funds. The Currency Hedge Contract is subject to counterparty risk in that if the counterparty fails to make any payments, the Series could incur a loss./span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"spanbr//span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"As a result of mark to market payments or otherwise, the ratio of Portfolio Securities to Shares will vary over time. For example, upon formation, a Series Share might be equal to one Share of the ADR. If the mark to market payments for the Currency Hedge Contract would require the Series to sell ADRs in order to make a payment to the counterparty, each Series Share would equal less than one Share of the ADR. As a result of the sales of an ADR, the net asset value of the Series and, correspondingly, the fractional amount of ADRs represented by each Share will decrease over the life of the Series./span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"spanbr//span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"The Series does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index./span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"spanbr//span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"The Series is non-diversified and therefore may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer than a diversified Series. /span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"spanbr//span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline"STMicroelectronics NV/spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%" /span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"spanbr//span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"STMicroelectronics NV is a global semiconductor company headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, which engages in the business of designing, developing, manufacturing, and marketing products used in a wide variety of applications for automotive, industrial, personal electronics and communications equipment, computers, and peripherals.
