COMMODITIES STRATEGY FUND CLASS A (RYMEX) Exchange: NMFQS

The Fund seeks exposure to the performance of the commodities markets. The Fund will seek to gain exposure to the underlying index, a composite index of commodity sector returns, representing an unleveraged long-only investment in commodity futures that is broadly diversified across the spectrum of commodities, by investing in exchange-traded products, including investment companies and commodity pools, that provide exposure to the commodities markets and in commodity-linked derivative instruments, which primarily consist of swap agreements, commodity options, and futures and options on futures. While the Fund may write (sell) and purchase swaps, it expects primarily to purchase swaps. Investing in derivative instruments enables the Fund to pursue its objective without investing directly in physical commodities. Certain of the Fund’s derivatives investments may be traded in the over-the-counter (“OTC”) market. Investments in derivative instruments, such as futures, options, and forward contracts and swap agreements, have the economic effect of creating financial leverage in the Fund’s portfolio because such investments may give rise to losses that exceed the amount the Fund has invested in those instruments. Financial leverage will magnify, sometimes significantly, the Fund’s exposure to any increase or decrease in prices associated with a particular reference asset resulting in increased volatility in the value of the Fund’s portfolio. The value of the Fund’s portfolio is likely to experience greater volatility over short-term periods. While such financial leverage has the potential to produce greater gains, it also may result in greater losses, which in some cases may cause the Fund to liquidate other portfolio investments at a loss to comply with limits on leverage and asset segregation requirements imposed by the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) or to meet redemption requests. The Fund’s use of derivatives and the leveraged investment exposure created by the use of derivatives are expected to be significant. To the extent the underlying index is concentrated in a particular industry the Fund will necessarily be concentrated in that industry.It is anticipated that the Fund’s investment exposure will tend to be heavily weighted toward oil and other energy-related commodities and agricultural commodities. On a day-to-day basis, the Fund may hold U.S. government securities or cash equivalents to collateralize its derivatives positions. The Fund also may enter into repurchase agreements with counterparties that are deemed to present acceptable credit risks. The Fund may invest a portion of its assets, and at times, a substantial portion of its assets, in other short-term fixed-income investment companies advised by the Advisor, or an affiliate of the Advisor, for various purposes, including for liquidity management purposes (e.g., to increase yield on liquid investments used to collateralize derivatives positions) or when such investment companies present a more cost-effective investment option than direct investments in the underlying securities. Investments in these investment companies will significantly increase the portfolio’s exposure to certain other asset categories, including: (i) a broad range of high yield, high risk debt securities rated below the top four long-term rating categories by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or, if unrated, determined by the Advisor to be of comparable quality (also known as “junk bonds”); (ii) securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities; (iii) collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), other asset-backed securities (including mortgage-backed securities) and similarly structured debt investments; and (iv) other short-term fixed income securities. Such investments will expose the Fund to the risks of these asset categories and increases or decreases in the value of these investments may cause the Fund to deviate from its investment objective.The Fund also may invest up to 25% of its total assets in a wholly-owned and controlled Cayman Islands subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”) as measured at the end of every quarter of the Fund's taxable year. The Subsidiary is advised by the Advisor, and has the same investment objective as the Fund. Unlike the Fund, however, the Subsidiary may invest to a greater extent in commodity-linked derivative instruments. The Subsidiary’s investments in such instruments are subject to limits on leverage imposed by the 1940 Act. The Fund’s investment in the Subsidiary is expected to provide the Fund with an effective means of obtaining exposure (long or short) to the investment returns of global commodities markets.In an effort to ensure that the Fund is fully invested on a day-to-day basis, the Fund may conduct any necessary trading activity at or just prior to the close of the U.S. financial markets. The Fund invests, to a significant extent, in companies or commodity-linked derivatives concentrated in the same economic sector. The Fund is non-diversified and, therefore, may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer in comparison to a diversified fund.
