Shareholders do not have appraisal rights in connection with the Proposal.

The Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, has unanimously approved the nomination of each of the Nominees, and recommends that the shareholders of the Fund vote “FOR” the election of each of the Nominees named herein.

FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT THE TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS

The Board of Trustees

The Fund is governed by the Board, which oversees the Fund’s business and affairs. The Board delegates the day-to-day management of the Fund to the Fund’s Officers and to various service providers that have been contractually retained to provide such day-to-day services. The entities that render services to the Fund do so pursuant to contracts that have been approved by the Board. The Trustees are experienced executives who, among other duties, oversee the Fund’s activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the Fund, and review the Fund’s investment performance.

The Board Leadership Structure and Related Matters

The Board is comprised of six members, four of whom are Independent Trustees.

One of the Interested Trustees, Andrew Kellerman, serves as the Chairperson of the Board. The responsibilities of the Chairperson of the Board include: coordinating with management in the preparation of agendas for Board meetings; presiding at Board meetings; between Board meetings, serving as a primary liaison with other Trustees, officers of the Fund, management personnel, and legal counsel to the Independent Trustees; and such other duties as the Board periodically may determine. Mr. Kellerman is a partner of the Fund’s investment adviser, Saba Capital. The designation of an individual as the Chairperson does not impose on such Trustee any duties, obligations or liabilities greater than the duties, obligations or liabilities imposed on such person as a member of the Board, generally.

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, the Board held four (4) meetings (not including committee meetings). One Trustee, Kieran Goodwin, who was a member of the Board during such fiscal year attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate of: (1) the total number of meetings held by the Board (2) with respect to Trustees currently serving as members of the Audit Committee, the total number of meetings held by the Audit Committee, and (3) with respect to Trustees currently serving as members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Nominating Committee”), the total number of meetings held by the Nominating Committee.

The Fund does not currently have a formal policy regarding the Trustees’ attendance at the Annual Meeting. No Trustees attended the Fund’s last annual meeting held on June 20, 2023.

Audit Committee. The Board has established an Audit Committee whose functions include, among other things: the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the work of the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm (“auditor”) engaged for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review or attest services for the Fund. The Audit Committee currently consists of three (3) Independent Trustees. The following Trustees currently serve as members of the Audit Committee: Ms. Caldwell and Messrs. Bumbolow and Desai. Ms. Caldwell currently serves as the Chairperson of the Audit Committee. All Audit Committee members have been designated as Audit Committee Financial Experts under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Audit Committee held three (3) meetings during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023. A copy of the current Audit Committee Charter is available, without charge, on the Internet at www.sabacef.com.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Board has established a Nominating Committee, whose functions include the following:

(i) The Nominating Committee shall make recommendations for nominations of Independent Trustees of the Board to the incumbent Independent Trustees and to the full Board. The Nominating Committee shall evaluate candidates’ qualifications for Board membership and the independence of such candidates from the Fund’s investment adviser and other principal service providers. The Nominating Committee shall also consider the effect of any relationships beyond those delineated in the 1940 Act that might impair independence, e.g., business, financial or family relationships with investment managers or service providers.

(ii) The Nominating Committee also shall evaluate candidates’ qualifications and make recommendations for “interested” members on the Board to the full Board.

(iii) The Nominating Committee may adopt from time to time specific, minimum qualifications that the Nominating Committee believes a candidate must meet before being considered as a candidate for Board membership and shall comply with any rules adopted from time to time by the SEC regarding investment company nominating committees and the nomination of persons to be considered as candidates for Board membership. In considering a candidate’s qualifications, the Nominating Committee generally considers the potential candidate’s educational background, business and professional experience, and reputation. In addition, the Nominating Committee has established as minimum qualifications for Board membership as an Independent Trustee: (1) that such candidate be an individual possessing high standards of character and integrity, relevant experience, a willingness to ask hard questions and the ability to work well with others; (2) that such candidate be free of conflicts of interest that would violate applicable law or regulation or interfere with the proper performance of the responsibilities of a Trustee; (3) that such candidate be willing and able to devote sufficient time to the affairs of the Fund and be diligent in fulfilling the responsibilities of a Trustee; and (4) that such candidate have the capacity and desire to represent the balanced, best interests of the Fund’s shareholders as a whole, and not a special interest group or constituency. The Nominating Committee has not adopted any specific policy on the issue of diversity, but will take this into account, among other factors, in its consideration of new candidates to the Board.

(iv) The Nominating Committee shall review shareholder recommendations for nominations to fill vacancies on the Board if such recommendations are submitted in writing and addressed to the Nominating Committee at the Fund’s offices. The Nominating Committee shall adopt, by resolution, a policy regarding its procedures for considering candidates for the Board, including any recommended by shareholders.

The following Trustees currently serve as members of the Nominating Committee: Ms. Caldwell and Messrs. Bumbolow and Desai. Mr. Bumbolow currently serves as the Chairperson of the Nominating Committee. The Nominating Committee typically meets at least once per year, and may hold special meetings by telephone or in person to discuss specific matters that may require action prior to the next regular meeting. The Nominating Committee did not meet during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023.

The Nominating Committee will consider Trustee candidates recommended by shareholders. In considering candidates submitted by shareholders, the Nominating Committee will take into consideration the needs of the Board, the qualifications of the candidate and the interests of shareholders.

To serve as a Trustee, nominees must (a) have no felony convictions or felony or misdemeanor convictions involving the purchase or sale of a security; and (b) not have been the subject of any order, judgment or decree (which was not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated) of any federal or state authority finding that the individual violated or is in violation of any federal or state securities laws.

Shareholders wishing to recommend candidates to the Nominating Committee should submit such recommendations to the Secretary of the Fund, who will forward the recommendations to the committee for consideration. The submission must include: (i) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual or special meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual or special meeting; (ii) the name and address, as they appear on the Fund’s books, of the shareholder proposing such business or nomination; (iii) a representation that the shareholder is a holder of record of stock of the Fund entitled to vote at such meeting and intends to appear telephonically or by proxy at the meeting to present such nomination; (iv) whether the shareholder plans to deliver or solicit proxies from other shareholders; (v) the class and number of Common Shares of the Fund, which are beneficially owned by the shareholder and the proposed nominee to the Board; (vi) any material interest of the shareholder or nominee in such business; (vii) to the extent to which such shareholder (including such shareholder’s principals) or the proposed nominee to the Board has entered into any hedging transaction or other arrangement with the effect or intent of mitigating or otherwise managing profit, loss, or risk of changes in the value of the Common Shares or the daily quoted market price of the Fund held by such shareholder (including shareholder’s principals) or the proposed nominee, including independently verifiable information in support of the foregoing; and (viii) such other information regarding such nominee proposed by such shareholder as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”). Each eligible shareholder or shareholder group may submit no more than one Independent Trustee nominee each calendar year.

The Board has adopted and approved a formal written charter for the Nominating Committee. A copy of the charter is attached as Exhibit A to this Proxy Statement.

The Board has not established any committees other than the Audit Committee and Nominating Committee and does not have a standing compensation committee. The Board believes it is appropriate for the Fund not to have a standing compensation committee because, given the size of the Board, the Independent Trustees are collectively capable of effectively and efficiently fulfilling the obligations that would otherwise be delegated to such committee, without the need for a formal committee structure. The Independent Trustees, acting together as a group, each participate in the consideration of the compensation of trustees and executive officers.

The Board’s Risk Oversight Role

The Board oversees this risk management function consistent with and as part of its oversight duties. The Board performs this risk management oversight function directly and, with respect to various matters, through its committees. The following description provides an overview of many, but not all, aspects of the Board’s oversight of risk management for the Fund. In this connection, the Board has been advised that it is not practicable to identify all of the risks that may impact the Fund or to develop procedures or controls that are designed to eliminate all such risk exposures, and that applicable securities law regulations do not contemplate that all such risks be identified and addressed.

The Board, working with management personnel and other service providers, has endeavored to identify the primary risks that confront the Fund. In general, these risks include, among others: (i) investment risks; (ii) credit risks; (iii) liquidity risks; (iv) valuation risks; (v) operational risks; (vi) reputational risks; (vii) regulatory risks; (viii) risks related to potential legislative changes; (ix) the risk of conflicts of interest affecting affiliates in managing the Fund; and (x) cybersecurity risks. The Board has adopted and periodically reviews various policies and procedures that are designed to address these and other risks confronting the Fund. In addition, many service providers to the Fund have adopted their own policies, procedures, and controls designed to address particular risks to the Fund. The Board and persons retained to render advice and service to the Board, including SS&C ALPS, which provides certain administrative, middle office and transfer agency services to the Fund, and Foreside, which provides third-party compliance officer and treasurer services to the Fund, periodically review and/or monitor changes to, and developments relating to, the effectiveness of these policies and procedures.

The Board oversees risk management activities in part through receipt and review by the Board of regular and special reports, presentations and other information from Officers of the Fund, including the chief compliance officer (“CCO”) for the Fund and the Adviser and the Adviser’s Chief Risk Officer, and from other service providers.

The Board may from time to time designate other meetings as subject to compensation.

For serving on the Board, each Independent Trustee is paid a $15,000 annual retainer fee for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023. Additionally, Ms. Caldwell receives an additional fee of $7,500 per year for her service as Audit Committee Chairperson. Appendix B details the compensation paid to the Trustees by the Fund.

The Officers of the Fund, together with each person’s position with the Fund and principal occupation for the last five years, are listed in Appendix D.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROXY STATEMENT

Who is asking for my vote?

The Board is soliciting your vote for the Annual Meeting.

How is my proxy being solicited?

Solicitation of proxies is being made primarily by the mailing of the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Proxy Statement, and the Proxy Ballot on or about May 22, 2024. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, employees of Saba Capital and its affiliates, without additional compensation, may solicit proxies in person or by telephone, email, facsimile, or oral communications.

If a shareholder wishes to participate in the Annual Meeting, the shareholder may mail the Proxy Ballot originally sent with the Proxy Statement, attend virtually, vote telephonically, or vote online by logging on to www.proxyvote.com and following the online directions. Should shareholders require additional information regarding the proxy or require replacement of the Proxy Ballot, they may contact Broadridge at 855-928-4480.

What happens to my proxy once I submit it?

The Board has named Michael D’Angelo and Nitin Sapru, or one or more substitutes designated by them, as proxies who are authorized to vote Fund shares as directed by shareholders.

Can I revoke my proxy after I submit it?

A shareholder may revoke their proxy at any time prior to its use by filing with the Fund a written revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date. In addition, any shareholder who attends the Annual Meeting virtually may vote by ballot at the Annual Meeting, thereby canceling any proxy previously given.

How will my shares be voted?

If you follow the voting instructions, your proxy will vote your shares as you have directed. If you submitted your Proxy Ballot but did not vote on the Proposal, your proxies will vote on the Proposal as recommended by the Board. If any other matter is properly presented, your proxies will vote in their discretion in accordance with their best judgment, including on any Proposal to adjourn the meeting. At the time this Proxy Statement was printed, the Board knew of no matter that needed to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting other than the Proposal discussed in this Proxy Statement.

Quorum and Tabulation

Each shareholder of the Fund is entitled to one vote for each share held as to any matter on which such shareholder is entitled to vote and for each fractional share that is owned, the shareholder shall be entitled to a proportionate fractional vote. A majority of shares entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum.

Adjournments

If a quorum is not present at the Annual Meeting, if there are insufficient votes to approve the Proposal, or for any other reason deemed appropriate by your proxies, your proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Annual Meeting to permit additional time for the solicitation of proxies. Solicitation of votes may continue to be made without any obligation to provide any additional notice of the adjournment. The persons named as proxies will vote in favor of such adjournments in their discretion.

Broker Non-Votes and Abstentions

If a shareholder abstains from voting as to any matter, or if a broker returns a “non-vote” proxy, indicating a lack of authority to vote on a matter, then the shares represented by such abstention or non-vote will be treated as shares that are present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum. However, abstentions and broker non-votes will be disregarded in determining the “votes cast” on the Proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of the election of Trustees.

How many Shares are outstanding?

Appendix E sets forth the number of shares of the Fund issued and outstanding as of the Record Date. Shares have no preemptive or subscription rights.

Appendix F lists the persons that, as of the Record Date, owned beneficially or of record 5% or more of the outstanding shares of the Fund. To the best of the Fund’s knowledge, as of the Record Date, no Trustee or Officers owned 1% or more of the outstanding shares of the Fund. As of the Record Date, none of the Independent Trustees nor their immediate family members owned any shares of the Adviser or principal underwriter or of any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Adviser or principal underwriter (not including registered investment companies).

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the 1934 Act and Section 30(h) of the 1940 Act, as applied to the Fund, require the Fund’s Officers, Trustees, Adviser, affiliates of the Adviser, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of the Fund’s outstanding securities (“Reporting Persons”), to file reports of ownership of the Fund’s securities and changes in such ownership with the SEC and the New York Stock Exchange. Such Reporting Persons are required by the SEC regulations to furnish the Fund with copies of all such filings. Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by it and written representations from certain Reporting Persons, the Fund believes that during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, its Reporting Persons complied with all applicable filing requirements.

Shareholder Communications with the Board

Shareholders may send other communications to the Board or an individual Trustee. Such communications should be sent to the Fund’s Secretary at the address on the front of this Proxy Statement.

What is the deadline to submit a proposal for the 2025 Annual Meeting?

It is anticipated that the next annual meeting will be held in June 2025, but the exact date, time, and location of such meeting have yet to be determined. Any proposals of shareholders that are intended to be presented at the next annual meeting must be in writing and received at the Fund’s principal executive offices no later than February 17, 2025, in order for the proposal to be considered for inclusion in the proxy statement for that meeting. The submission of a proposal does not guarantee its inclusion in the proxy statement or presentation at the meeting.

Shareholders who wish to make a proposal that would not be included in the Fund’s proxy materials or to nominate a person or persons as a Trustee at the 2025 annual meeting of the Fund must ensure that the proposal or nomination is delivered to the Fund’s principal executive offices no earlier than January 17, 2025 and no later than February 17, 2025 and includes the information specified in the Fund’s Declaration of Trust and Bylaws. However, if the annual meeting is not scheduled to be held within 30 days before or after the first anniversary date of the annual meeting for the preceding year (such annual meeting date outside such period, an “Other Annual Meeting Date”), notice by shareholders, to be timely, must be delivered to the Fund’s principal executive offices by the later of (i) the date 90 days prior to the Other Annual Meeting Date or (ii) the 10th day following the date that the Other Annual Meeting Date is first publicly announced or disclosed and must include the information specified in the Fund’s Declaration of Trust and Bylaws. The chairperson of the Annual Meeting may disregard any nomination or other proposal by a shareholder that is not made in the manner described above.

Who is the Fund’s independent public accountants?

The Board has selected the accounting firm of Ernst & Young LLP (“E&Y”) as the independent auditor of the Fund for the current fiscal year.

As part of its oversight of the Fund’s financial statements, on December 15, 2023, the Audit Committee held a telephonic meeting to review and discuss with the Adviser, and E&Y the Fund’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023. The Audit Committee discussed with E&Y the matters required to be discussed by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) Auditing Standard 1301, Communications with Audit Committees. The Audit Committee has also received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from E&Y pursuant to PCAOB Rule 3526 and discussed E&Y’s independence with E&Y.

Based on the reviews and discussion referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in the Fund’s Annual Report to shareholders.

Ketu Desai

The fees paid to E&Y for professional audit services during the Fund’s most recent fiscal years ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2023, amounts billed for other services rendered by E&Y to the Fund, and the aggregate non-audit fees billed by E&Y for services rendered to the Fund, the Adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2023 are described in Appendix G.

All of the services provided by the independent public accounting firm were approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures adopted by the Audit Committee. Pursuant to such policies and procedures, the Audit Committee approves: (i) all audit and non-audit services to be rendered to the Fund by E&Y; and (ii) all non-audit services impacting the operations and financial reporting of the Fund provided by E&Y to the Adviser or any affiliate thereof that provides ongoing services to the Fund (collectively, “Covered Services”). The Audit Committee has adopted pre-approval procedures authorizing one or more members of the Audit Committee to approve from time to time, on behalf of the Audit Committee, all Covered Services to be provided by E&Y which are not otherwise approved at a meeting of the Audit Committee, provided that such delegate reports to the full Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting. The pre-approval procedures do not include delegation of the Audit Committee’s responsibilities to management. Pre-approval has not been waived with respect to any of the services described above since the date on which the Audit Committee adopted its current pre-approval procedures.

The Audit Committee of the Board has considered and will periodically consider whether E&Y’s provision of non-audit services to the Adviser and all entities controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Adviser that provide ongoing services to the Fund that were not required to be pre-approved is compatible with maintaining the independence of E&Y.

Representatives of E&Y are not expected to be at the Annual Meeting but have been given the opportunity to make a statement if they wish.

A majority vote of the Board’s other Independent Trustees may extend the retirement date of an Independent Trustee if the retirement would trigger a requirement to hold a meeting of shareholders of the Fund under applicable law, whether for the purposes of appointing a successor to the Independent Trustee or otherwise complying under applicable law, in which case the extension would apply until such time as the shareholder meeting can be held or is no longer required (as determined by a vote of a majority of the other Independent Trustees).

identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Board;

ii.

selecting or recommending to the Board the trustee nominees for each annual meeting of shareholders;

iii.

developing and recommending to the Board a set of corporate governance principles applicable to the Fund;

II.

Membership and Qualifications

Membership: The Committee shall consist of at least three (3) independent members of the Board meeting the qualifications set forth below. Members of the Committee shall be appointed by the Board.

Qualifications: Each member of the Committee may not be an “interested person” of the Fund, as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and must meet the requirements of a “non-employee director” for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the applicable director independence requirements of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). The Board shall annually review the Committee’s compliance with such requirements.

Chair: Unless a Chair is elected by the full Board, the members of the Committee may designate a Chair by majority vote of the full Committee membership.

Resignation, Removal and Replacement: Any member of the Committee may resign from the Committee at any time upon notice of such resignation to the Board. The Board shall have the power at any time to remove a member of the Committee with or without cause, to fill all vacancies, and to designate alternate members, upon the recommendation of the Committee, to replace any absent or disqualified members.

III.

Procedures

The Committee will meet at least once per year and at such additional times as may be necessary to carry out its responsibilities. The Chair of the Committee, in consultation with the other Committee members, shall determine the frequency and length of the Committee meetings and shall set meeting agendas consistent with this charter. Any two members, the Chair of the Committee, the Chair of the Board and/or the Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) of the Fund may call a meeting of the Committee whenever deemed necessary.

Action may be taken by the Committee upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the members present at the meeting if a quorum of Committee members, as defined in the Fund’s bylaws, is present (or where only two members are present, by unanimous vote).

The Committee may invite any member of the Board who is not a member of the Committee, or any officer, employee, counsel, representative of a service provider or other persons to attend meetings and provide information to the Committee as appropriate.

An agenda, together with materials relating to the subject matter of each meeting, shall be sent to members of the Committee prior to each meeting. Minutes for all meetings of the Committee shall be prepared to document the Committee’s discharge of its responsibilities.

IV.

Goals, Responsibilities and Authority

In carrying out its mission, the Committee shall have direct responsibility and authority to perform the following duties:

Nominating Trustees

Identify individuals qualified to become Board members, consistent with criteria approved by the Board, receive nominations for such qualified individuals, select, or recommend that the Board select the trustee nominees for the next annual meeting of shareholders, taking into account each candidate’s ability, judgment and experience and the overall diversity and composition of the Board;

Recommend to the Board candidates for election to the Board and evaluate the Board in accordance with criteria set forth below or determined as provided below. As part of this responsibility, the Committee shall be responsible for conducting, subject to applicable law, any and all inquiries into the background and qualifications of any candidate for the Board and such candidate’s compliance with the independence and other qualification requirements established by the Committee.

Be willing and able to devote sufficient time to the affairs of the Fund and be diligent in fulfilling the responsibilities of a trustee; and

Specific Considerations. The Committee shall periodically review the skills, experiences (such as business experience or other such involvement in public service, academia or scientific communities), particular areas of expertise, particular backgrounds, and other characteristics that help ensure the effectiveness of the Board and the Board’s committees. These considerations should:

Take into account any particular needs of the Fund and may be adjusted as these Fund characteristics evolve;

Consider periodically complimentary skills or other attributes, which may not be represented on the Board that would be useful to the Board as it fulfills its duties; and

Be based on a consideration of each individual’s contributions, the availability of trustee candidates, and the Fund’s needs.

Monitor Board composition and recommend candidates as necessary to ensure that the number of independent trustees serving on the Board satisfies NYSE and SEC requirements;

Review any candidate recommended or nominated by shareholders in light of the Committee’s criteria for selection of new trustees, as well as requirements under the Fund’s organizational documents and applicable law;

Recommend to the Board qualified individuals to serve as committee members on the various Board committees; and

Recommend to the Board or to the appropriate committee thereto processes for annual evaluations of the performance of the Board and any executive officers of the Fund. In discharging this responsibility, the Committee shall solicit comments from all trustees and report annually to the Board on the results of the evaluation.

Policies and Procedures with Respect to Trustees

Review the Fund’s practices and policies with respect to trustees, including the size of the Board, the ratio of employee trustees to non-employee trustees, the meeting frequency of the Board, the structure of Board meetings and the responsibilities of the Board and its committees, and make recommendations to the Board with respect thereto.

Succession Planning for CEO and Other Executive Officers

Oversee the maintenance and presentation to the Board of management’s plans for succession to senior management positions in the Fund.

Corporate Governance

Oversee an annual review of the performance of the full Board and report the results thereof to the full Board;

Monitor and make recommendations to the Board on matters of Fund policies and practices relating to corporate governance, including performing periodic reviews of the Fund’s corporate governance requirements and recommending to the Board any proposed revisions thereto;

Periodically evaluate the Fund’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for Principal Executive and Principal Financial Officers and, if appropriate, recommend changes to that code;

Consider and report to the Board any questions of possible conflicts of interest of Board members; and

Review shareholder proposals regarding corporate governance and make recommendations to the Board.

Other

Periodically review and assess the adequacy of this charter, the structure and operations of this Committee and the other existing Board committees, including any policies for removal of members and rotation of members among other committees of the Board, and submit any changes to the Board for approval;

Have the sole authority to retain and terminate a search firm to assist in the identification of trustee candidates and have the authority to approve the search firm’s fees and other retention terms;

Have the authority to retain legal, accounting or other experts that it determines to be necessary to carry out its duties and to determine compensation for such advisors; and

Carry out such other duties that may be delegated to the Committee by the Board from time to time.

The Committee shall have the right to use reasonable amounts of time of the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm, outside lawyers and other internal staff and also shall have the right to hire independent experts, lawyers and other consultants to assist and advise the Committee in connection with its responsibilities. The Committee shall keep the Fund’s Chief Financial Officer advised as to the general range of anticipated expenses for outside consultants.

The Committee may delegate any of its responsibilities to a subcommittee comprised of one or more members of the Committee.
