Pursuant to an operating expense limitation agreement between Easterly Investment Partners LLC, the Fund’s investment manager (“Easterly” or the “Adviser”), and the Fund, Easterly has contractually agreed to waive all or a portion of its advisory fee and/or pay expenses of the Fund so that total annual Fund operating expenses (excluding front-end and contingent deferred sales loads, leverage, interest and tax expenses, dividends and interest on short positions, brokerage commissions, expenses incurred in connection with any merger, reorganization or liquidation, extraordinary or non-routine expenses and Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses) for Class A, Class C, Class I, and Class R6 do not exceed 1.50%, 2.25%, 1.25%, and .99%, respectively.

Morningstar Extended Performance Methodology
For details of how Morningstar determines the oldest share class in the event of multiple share classes having the same inception date, please see the Oldest Share Class Methodology paper. For predecessor/successor situations, the performance of the original portfolio is not adjusted but is instead appended to the records of the new portfolio. The methodology below is used only for multi-share situations where the historical performance of the original portfolio is adjusted for fees. For multi-share situations, Morningstar will adjust the historical total returns of the oldest share class (“parent”) to reflect the fee structure of the younger share class/channel (“child”). The parent fund monthly returns (prior to the child’s inception) are adjusted for fees, and then this data is attached to the child record. Then, the string of adjusted plus actual monthly returns for the child is compounded into historical trailing returns. The fee adjustment is necessary because expenses reduce the net returns to shareholders.
