(5) Direct investments are generally restricted as to resale and do not have a readily available resale market. On the date of acquisition of the direct investments, there were no market quotations on similar securities, and the investments were therefore initially valued in good faith by the Board of Directors at fair market value. The securities continue to be valued in good faith by the Board of Directors at fair market value as of January 31, 2013.
(6) The securities contain a put option which allows the Fund to sell the investments for a value at least equal to the purchase price under certain circumstances.
(7) Repurchase agreement, dated 01/31/13, due 02/01/13 with repurchase proceeds of $4,085,000 is collateralized by US Treasury Bond, 4.5% due 02/15/36 with a market value of $4,167,930.

144A Securities restricted for resale to Qualified Institutional Buyers in the United States or to non-US persons. At January 31, 2013, these restricted securities amounted to $30,520,101, which represented 8.11% of total net assets.

 

** At January 31, 2013, aggregate cost for federal tax purposes was $343,374,295. Gross unrealized appreciation of investments was $93,938,796 which gross unrealized depreciation of investments was $36,782,575, resulting in net unrealized appreciation of investments of $57,156,221.

NOTE A – Portfolio securities listed on recognized United States or foreign security exchanges are valued at the last quoted sales price in the principal market where they are traded. Listed securities with no such sales price and unlisted securities are valued at the mean between the current bid and asked prices, if any, from brokers. Short-term investments having maturities of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost (original purchase cost as adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount) which when combined with accrued interest approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value in good faith by or at the direction of the Board of Directors considering relevant factors, data and information including, if relevant, the market value of freely tradable securities of the same class in the principal market on which such securities are normally traded. Direct Investments are valued at fair value as determined by or at the direction of the Board of Directors based on financial and other information supplied by the Direct Investment Manager regarding each Direct Investment. Forward currency contracts are valued at the current cost of offsetting the contract. Equity linked securities are valued at fair value primarily based on the value(s) of the underlying security (or securities), which normally follows the same methodology as the valuation of securities listed on recognized exchanges.

The Fund’s investments in Chinese companies involve certain risks not typically associated with investments in securities of U.S. companies or the U.S. Government, including risks relating to (1) social, economic and political uncertainty; (2) price volatility, lesser liquidity and smaller market capitalization of securities markets in which securities of Chinese companies trade; (3) currency exchange fluctuations, currency blockage and higher rates of inflation; (4) controls on foreign investment and limitations on repatriation of invested capital and on the Fund’s ability to exchange local currencies for U.S. dollars; (5) governmental involvement in and control over the economy; (6) risk of nationalization or expropriation of assets; (7) the nature of the smaller, less seasoned and newly organized Chinese companies, particularly in China; and (8) the absence of uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards, practices and disclosure requirements and less government supervision and regulation.

Fair Value Measurement

The Fund utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of most of its investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are as follows:

 

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.

 

 

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, process for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data.

 

 

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that would be based on the best information available.

The availability of observable inputs used to measure fair value can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining the fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in level 3.

The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement in its entirety.

Direct Investments: The Fund may invest up to 25% of the net proceeds from its offering of its outstanding common stock in direct investments; however, the Board of Directors of the Fund has suspended additional investments in direct investments. Direct investments are generally restricted and do not have a readily available resale market. Because of the absence of any public trading market for these investments, the Fund may take longer to liquidate this position than would be the case for publicly traded securities. Although this security may be resold in privately negotiated transactions, the price on these sales could be less than those originally paid by the Fund. Issuers whose securities are not publicly traded may not be subject to public disclosure and other investor protections requirements applicable to publicly traded securities. The values of these securities held at January 31, 2013 were $11,108,328 or 2.9% of the Fund’s net assets. The table below details the acquisition date, cost, and values of the Fund’s direct investments as determined by the Board of Directors of the Fund. The Fund does not have the right to demand that such securities be registered.
