Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

Accounting standards codification topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Topic 740 developed a two-step process to evaluate a tax position and also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The fund has not recorded a reserve for any tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. The fund files tax returns in all appropriate jurisdictions. The open tax years are those years ended september 30, 2023 through september 30, 2025. The tax return for the year ended september 30, 2025 has not been filed as of the date of this report. As of september 30, 2025, and 2024, the fund has no recorded liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The fund recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as interest expense and penalties as incurred. No such expense was recognized for the years ended september 30, 2025 and 2024.
