The total of such liabilities allocated to a class plus that class' distribution fee and any other expenses specially allocated to that class are then deducted from the class' proportionate interest in the Fund's assets, and the resulting amount for each class is divided by the number of shares of that class outstanding to produce the "net asset value" per share.
