the Prior Release and in the proposed
rule change, investors would have ready
access to information regarding the
Fund’s holdings (including Derivative
Instruments), the Intraday Indicative
Value, the Disclosed Portfolio, and
quotation and last sale information for
the Shares.
For the above reasons, the Exchange
believes the proposed rule change is
consistent with the requirements of
Section 6(b)(5) of the Act.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
The Exchange does not believe that
the proposed rule change will impose
any burden on competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act. The
Exchange believes the proposed rule
change will permit the Adviser
additional flexibility in achieving the
Fund’s investment objectives, thereby
offering investors additional investment
options.

Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants or Others
Written comments were neither

IV. Designation of a Longer Period for
Commission Action
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act 21 provides
that, within 45 days of the publication
of notice of the filing of a proposed rule
change, or within such longer period up
to 90 days as the Commission may
designate if it finds such longer period
to be appropriate and publishes its
reasons for so finding or as to which the
self-regulatory organization consents,
the Commission shall either approve the
proposed rule change, disapprove the
proposed rule change, or institute
proceedings to determine whether the
proposed rule change should be
disapproved. The Commission is
extending this 45-day time period.
The proposed rule change, as
modified by Amendment No. 1 thereto,
would permit the Fund to invest up to
40% of its net assets in bank loans and
up to 30% of its net assets in Derivative
Instruments (excluding Derivative
Instruments used solely for hedging
purposes). The Commission finds that it
is appropriate to designate a longer
period within which to take action on
the proposed rule change, as modified
by Amendment No. 1 thereto, so that it
has sufficient time to consider the
proposed rule change and Amendment
No. 1.
Accordingly, the Commission,
pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,22 designates May 9, 2014, as the
date by which the Commission should
either approve or disapprove or institute
21 15
For the Commission, by the Division of
Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated
authority.23
