The Company provides daily to the adviser the securities prices used in calculating the net asset value of the fund, for its use in preparing exception reports for those prices on which the adviser has comment. Further, upon receipt of the exception reports generated by the adviser, the Company diligently pursues communication regarding exception reports with the designated pricing agents;
