For instance, private investments that are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, cannot be offered for public sale in a non-exempt transaction without first being registered. In other cases, certain of the Fund’s investments have restrictions such as lock-up agreements that preclude the Fund from offering these securities for public sale.

(1) Securities are valued using inputs reflecting the Fund’s own assumption.

 

(2) Unregistered or restricted security of a publicly traded company.

 

(3) In determining the fair value for Plains All American GP, LLC (“PAA GP”), the Fund’s valuation is based on publicly available information. Robert V. Sinnott, the CEO of Kayne Anderson Capital Advisors, L.P. (“KACALP”), sits on PAA GP’s board of directors. Certain private investment funds managed by KACALP may value its investment in PAA GP based on non-public information, and, as a result, such valuation may be different than the Fund’s valuation.

 

(4) Security was acquired at various dates during the three months ended February 29, 2012 and the previous fiscal years.

 

(5) Unregistered security of a private company.

 

(6) These securities have a fair market value determined by the mean of the bid and ask prices provided by an agent or a syndicate bank, principal market maker or an independent pricing service. These securities have limited trading volume and are not listed on a national exchange.

 

(7) Principal amount is 7,250 Canadian dollars.

At February 29, 2012, the cost basis of investments for federal income tax purposes was $736,386. At February 29, 2012, gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments for federal income tax purposes were as follows:

 

Gross unrealized appreciation

   $ 131,071   

Gross unrealized depreciation

     (11,389
  

 

 

 

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 119,682   
  

 

 

 

The identified cost basis of federal tax purposes is estimated based on information available from the Fund’s portfolio companies. In some cases, this information is very limited. Accordingly, the actual cost basis may prove higher or lower than the estimated cost basis included above.

As required by the Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification, the Fund has performed an analysis of all assets and liabilities measured at fair value to determine the significance and character of all inputs to their fair value determination.

The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into the following three broad categories. Note that the valuation levels below are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment.


Table of Contents
  Ÿ  

Level 1 — Quoted unadjusted prices for identical instruments in active markets traded on a national exchange to which the Fund has access at the date of measurement.

 

  Ÿ  

Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. Level 2 inputs are those in markets for which there are few transactions, the prices are not current, little public information exists or instances where prices vary substantially over time or among brokered market makers.

 

  Ÿ  

Level 3 — Model derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
