August 1, 2025

Page 6

Response #16

The Registrant confirms that it is a limited derivative user and is compliant with the requirements of Rule 18f-4.

Of the Fund's $4.021 million of derivative exposure in the form of a short position on the Ibnoxx Ishares futures contract, the Registrant notes that this contract follows the performance of a basket of fixed rate high yield bonds (see https://www.markit.com/Company/Files/DownloadFiles?CMSID=5ba7a39a658845749b685268a3c58828).

The Registrant notes that this short position is an offsetting interest rate hedge for the Fund's holdings in fixed rate loans of Capsource Ventures, which had a principal amount of $5,876,529, and has similar mechanical characteristics to high yield bonds.

Rule 18-f(c)(4) allows excluding any currency or interest rate derivative transactions that a fund enters into for hedging purposes, provided that the notional amounts of such derivative transactions do not exceed the value of the hedged investments (or the par value thereof in case of fixed-income investments, or principal amount, in case of borrowing) by more than 10%.

Given this, the Registrant believes that it remains a limited derivative user. Additionally, the Registrant confirms that it has adopted and implemented written policies and procedures reasonably designed to manage the Fund's derivatives risk.

Comment #17

The Staff noted that Item B.23 of Form N-CEN was checked "yes," however, the Staff did not find a written statement pursuant to Section 19(a) of 1940 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 on the Fund's website. Please explain how the Registrant complied with the requirements of Section 19(a) as it relates to the payment of any dividend or any distribution made in the nature of a dividend payment that is required to be accompanied by a written statement pursuant to Sec. 19(a) during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. See Sec. 19(a), Rule 19a-1 and Investment Management Dear CFO Letter 2019-02

Response #17

The Registrant notes that Item B.23 of Form N-CEN was inadvertently checked "yes" by the Fund's administrator and should have been marked as "no." The Registrant confirms that this item will be correctly marked going forward.

Comment #18

Please provide as a percent of the Fund's total assets as of Dec. 31, 2024, the amount of the Fund's investment in each controlled foreign corporation ("CFC"). If more than 25% of the value the Fund's total assets is invested in the securities of one issuer, please describe the process the Fund uses to determine if it is in compliance with IRS diversification rules regarding qualifications as a RIC for tax purposes and if the Fund is in compliance as of the Fund's most recent taxable year end. See IRC Sec. 851-B.3.b.

Response #18

The Registrant notes that as of December 31, 2024, less than 1% of the Fund's total assets were invested in its sole subsidiary.
