Disclosures & Definitions
More detailed information regarding these risks can be found in the Fund’s prospectus.
Fund Risks: Borrowing Risk – borrowings increase fund expenses and are subject to repayment, possibly at inopportune times. Closed-End Fund Risk – closed-end funds are exchange traded, may trade at a discount to their net asset values and may deploy leverage. Convertible Security Risk – the market value of convertible securities adjusts with interest rates and the value of the underlying stock. Credit Derivatives Risk – the use of credit derivatives is highly specialized, involves default, counterparty and liquidity risks and may not perfectly correlate to the underlying asset or liability being hedged. Currency Risk – foreign currencies will rise or decline relative to the U.S. dollar. Derivatives Risk – derivatives are subject to counterparty risk. Distressed and Defaulted Securities Risk – defaulted securities carry the risk of uncertainty of repayment. Equity Risk – equity securities may experience volatility and the value of equity securities may move in opposite directions from each other and from other equity markets generally. Exchange Traded Note Risk – exchange traded notes represent unsecured debt of the issuer and may be influenced by interest rates, credit ratings of the issuer or changes in value of the reference index. Fixed Income Risk – the market value of fixed income securities adjusts with interest rates and the securities are subject to issuer default. Foreign/Emerging Market Risk – foreign securities may be subject to inefficient or volatile markets, different regulatory regimes or different tax policies. These risks may be enhanced in emerging markets. Floating Interest Rate Risk – loans pay interest based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and a decline in LIBOR could negatively impact the Fund’s return. Investment Style Risk – investment strategies may come in and out of favor with investors and may underperform or outperform at times. Large Shareholder Purchase and Redemption Risk – The Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of the Fund. Liquidity Risk – illiquid investments may be difficult or impossible to sell. Loans Risk – loans may be unrated or rated below investment grade and the pledged collateral may lose value. Secondary trading in loans is not fully-developed and may result in illiquidity. Management Risk – there is no guarantee that the adviser’s or sub-adviser’s investment decisions will produce the desired results. Market Risk – economic conditions, interest rates and political events may affect the securities markets. Preferred Stock Risk – preferred stocks generally pay dividends, but may be less liquid than common stocks, have less priority than debt instruments and may be subject to redemption by the issuer. Security Risk – the value of the Fund may increase or decrease in response to the prospects of the issuers of securities and loans held in the Fund. Swap Risk – swap agreements are subject to counterparty default risk and may not perform as intended. Tax Risk – new federal or state governmental action could adversely affect the tax-exempt status of securities held by the Fund, resulting in higher tax liability for shareholders and potentially hurting Fund performance as well. Underlying Fund Risk – underlying funds have additional fees, may utilize leverage, may not correlate to an intended index and may trade at a discount to their net asset values. Valuation Risk – Loans and fixed-income securities are traded “over the counter” and because there is no centralized information regarding trading, the valuation of loans and fixed-income securities may vary.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
High yield bonds are subject to interest rate risk. If rates increase, the value generally declines.

- The price at which a closed-end fund trades often varies from its NAV. Some funds have market prices below their net asset values – referred to as a discount. Conversely, some funds have market prices above their net asset values – referred to as a premium.
- The expense ratio as disclosed in the Fund’s annual report dated 9.30.2023 is 1.35% (RNHIX) and 1.60% (RNOTX), which only includes the direct expenses paid by shareholders from their investment. The expense ratio as disclosed in the Fund’s prospectus dated 1.28.2024 is 2.24% (RNHIX) and 2.49% (RNOTX), which is required to include the indirect expenses of investing in underlying funds. The adviser has contractually agreed to defer the collection of fees and/or reimburse expenses, but only to the extent necessary to limit Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding brokerage fees and commissions; borrowing costs, such as (a) interest and (b) dividends on securities sold short; taxes; indirect expenses incurred by the underlying funds in which the Fund invests; and extraordinary expenses) to 1.35% (RNHIX) and 1.60% (RNOTX) of the average daily net assets of the Fund through 1.31.2025.
- 30-Day SEC Yield: The yield figure reflects the dividends and interest earned during the period, after the deduction of the Fund’s expenses.
- The Fund pays periodic distributions consisting of dividend income, return of capital, and capital gains. However, the tax characteristics of these distributions cannot be fully determined until after the end of year when the Fund’s underlying investments designate or reclassify the composition of their payments. In the interim, the Fund estimates return of capital rates based on the previous year’s distribution. As a result, a portion of the quoted SEC Yield may consist of an estimated amount of return of capital.
- Estimated Duration: Duration is a measure of the sensitivity of the price of a fixed income investment to a change in interest rates. Duration is expressed as a number of years. Duration is estimated by the adviser based on certain assumptions from third-party data and is subject to change.
- The BofA Non-Financial Developed High Yield Constrained Index contains all securities in the BofA Global High Yield Index from developed markets countries but cap issuer exposure at 2%.. Qualifying securities must have a below investment grade rating (based on an average of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch). CS Leveraged Loan Index tracks the investable market of the U.S. dollar denominated leveraged loan market. It consists of issues rated “5B” or lower, meaning that the highest rated issues included in this index are Moody’s/S&P ratings of Baa1/BB+ or Ba1/BBB+. All loans are funded term loans with a tenor of at least one year and are made by issuers domiciled in developed countries. The indexes cannot be invested in directly and do not reflect fees and expenses.
- Alpha, Beta, R-Squared, Standard Deviation and Sharpe Ratio are since inception statistics benchmarked against the S&P 500 Index based on monthly total returns. Alpha is a measure of performance on a risk-adjusted basis. The excess return of a fund relative to the return of the benchmark index is a fund’s alpha. Beta reflects the sensitivity of a fund’s return to fluctuations in the market index. A beta of 0.5 reflects half of the market’s volatility as represented by the Fund’s primary benchmark, while a beta of 2.0 reflects twice the volatility. R-squared is a statistical measure that represents the percentage of a fund’s or security’s movements that can be explained by movements in a benchmark index. Standard deviation is a measure of the dispersion of a set of data from its mean. For a fund, it is a measure of the volatility of a fund’s returns, and it is used by investors as a gauge for the amount ofexpected volatility. The Sharpe Ratio is calculated by subtracting the current 90 day T-Bill rate from the rate of return of the portfolio and dividing the result by the standard deviation of the portfolio returns. It is a measure of risk-adjusted performance. The Sortino Ratio is the excess return over the risk freerate divided by the downside semi-variance, and so it measures the return to “bad” volatility. An important benefit of this measure is that it offers an indication of both the likelihood of failing to achieve the target return and also the consequences of the shortfall. Upside Capture measures a manager’s performance in up markets relative to the named index itself. It is calculated by taking the security’s upside capture return and dividing it by the benchmark’s upside capture return. Downside Capture measures a manager’s performance in down markets as defined by the named index. A downmarket is defined as those periods (months or quarters) in which the named index return is less than 0.
- Inception date of the Fund: 12.28.2012.
