What Were the Fund Costs for the Last six months?

How Did the Fund Perform Over the Last six months and What Affected its Performance?

Performance

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, the Needham Growth Fund's Institutional Class returned 65.64% , significantly outperforming the Russell 3000 Index's 10.88% and the Russell Midcap Growth Index's 7.27%.

Equity markets were volatile in the first quarter as war, tariff uncertainty, and a 2025 government-shutdown-related slowdown weighed on many industries, including software, autos, and health care equipment. Volatility continued into April as the closing of the Strait of Hormuz pushed oil above $126 per barrel, but markets rallied sharply after a June memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran eased tensions, oil prices normalized, and the Information Technology sector led a broad-based recovery.

The key factor affecting the Fund's performance was stock selection, particularly among holdings tied to semiconductor manufacturing, data center infrastructure, and defense. Leading contributors for the period included Vicor Corporation (VICR), PDF Solutions, Inc. (PDFS), FormFactor, Inc. (FORM), and Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (VSH). The Fund's detractors were small relative to its contributors and included Super Micro Computer, Inc. (SMCI), Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc. (TMO), and Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc. (HII).

Investment Themes

The Fund's major investment theme remains the importance of U.S. infrastructure. The Fund invests in lesser-known "pick and shovel" providers behind engineering, manufacturing, and technology development. Portfolio companies sell into data centers, life sciences laboratories, semiconductor and other manufacturing facilities, transportation infrastructure, energy systems, and defense-related markets. The U.S. has underinvested in many of these areas, which may create long-term opportunities.

Four areas present throughout the portfolio are: Semiconductor manufacturing, data centers and artificial intelligence (AI) processing, U.S. manufacturing, and defense technology.

Needham Investment Management LLC, the Fund's adviser, believes the AI buildout remains in an early stage. The Fund's strategy is to invest in companies developing new products and services and to hold those that execute successfully over time.

How Did the Fund Perform Over the Last six months and What Affected its Performance?

Performance

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, the Needham Small Cap Growth Fund's Institutional Class returned 87.13%, significantly outperforming the Russell 2000 Growth Index's 22.18% and the Russell 3000 Index's 10.88%.

Small-cap equities were volatile early in 2026 as the U.S.-Iran war drove oil prices above $100 per barrel and introduced broad market uncertainty. Volatility continued into April with the closing of the Strait of Hormuz, which pushed oil to a peak of $126 per barrel, before a June memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran eased tensions. Small-cap stocks staged a significant recovery in the second quarter as investor interest in the asset class accelerated, merger and acquisition activity picked up, and Information Technology led market gains.

The key factor affecting the Fund's performance was stock selection, particularly among semiconductor, communications infrastructure, and specialty materials holdings. Leading contributors for the period included Arteris, Inc. (AIP), which reported strong bookings and raised guidance; Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (VSH), which advanced its capacity expansion strategy; and TTM Technologies, Inc. (TTMI) and nLIGHT, Inc. (LASR), which benefited from improving fundamentals and renewed investor confidence earlier in the period. The Fund's detractors were small relative to its contributors and included CoStar Group, Inc. (CSGP), Harmonic, Inc. (HLIT), and Lantronix, Inc. (LTRX).

Investment Themes

The Fund's major investment theme remains the importance of technology-driven infrastructure and industrial innovation. Portfolio companies sell products and services into data centers, communications infrastructure, semiconductor and advanced manufacturing facilities, defense systems, and specialty material markets. Needham Investment Management LLC, the Fund's investment adviser, believes that many of these industries continue to benefit from long-term capital spending trends and ongoing technological innovation.

Notes to Financial Statements

June 30, 2026 (Unaudited)

1.	ORGANIZATION

Needham Growth Fund ("NGF"), Needham Aggressive Growth Fund ("NAGF") and Needham Small Cap Growth Fund ("NSCGF") (each, a "Portfolio" and collectively, the "Portfolios"), are portfolios of The Needham Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. The Portfolios are "diversified" for purposes of the 1940 Act. Each Portfolio's investment objective is to seek long-term, tax-efficient capital appreciation. Please refer to the most recently filed Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a detailed description of each Portfolio's investment strategy. The Company was organized as a Maryland corporation on October 12, 1995. NGF, NAGF, and NSCGF each currently offer two classes, the Retail Class and the Institutional Class. The Institutional Class of each Portfolio commenced operations on December 30, 2016.

Each Portfolio is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 "Financial Services - Investment Companies."

2.	CLASS SPECIFIC EXPENSES

Class level expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of net assets represented by each class as a percentage of the net assets of the Portfolio. Expenses deemed directly attributable to a class of shares are recorded by the specific class. Most Portfolio expenses are allocated by class based on relative net assets. Distribution Fees incurred in connection with the Company's Amended and Restated Plan of Distribution Pursuant to Rule 12b-1 are expensed at 0.25% of average daily net assets of the Retail Class shares, and the specific amounts are detailed in Note 5.

3.	SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").

Security Valuation: Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available are stated at the last reported sale price reported by the principal exchange for the security as of the exchange's close of business. Securities for which no sale has taken place during the day and securities which are not listed on an exchange are valued at the mean of the highest closing bid and lowest asked prices. Exchange traded options are valued at the last reported sale price on any exchange on which the option is principally traded. If no sales are reported on a particular day, the options will be valued at the mean between the highest closing bid and lowest asked prices across the exchanges where the option is traded. Non-exchange traded options will also be valued at the mean between the last bid and asked quotations. For options where market quotations are not readily available, value will be determined in accordance with the fair value procedures described below. All other securities and assets for which (a) market quotations are not readily available, such as in the case of a market or technical disruption that prevents the normal trading of a security held by a Portfolio, (b) market quotations are believed to be unrepresentative of fair market value, such as in the case of a thinly traded security, or (c) valuation is normally made at the last sale price on a foreign exchange and a significant event occurs after the close of that exchange but before the New York Stock Exchange closes, are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by the Company's Valuation Designee in accordance with Fair Value Procedures. The Company's Fair Value Procedures are implemented and monitored by a Fair Value Committee (the "Committee") established by the Valuation Designee. The Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") has designated the Portfolios' investment adviser as the Company's Valuation Designee.

When a security is valued in accordance with the Fair Value Procedures, the Committee determines a value after taking into consideration any relevant information that is reasonably available to the Committee. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued pursuant to these Fair Value Procedures include, but are not limited to: the security's trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been delisted from a national exchange; the security's primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; or the security's primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price. The securities of each Portfolio may also be valued on the basis of valuations provided by a pricing service approved by, or on behalf of, the Board.

Portfolio securities listed or traded on securities exchanges, including American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs"), are valued at the closing price on the exchange or system where the security is principally traded or at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. If there have been no sales for that day on the exchange or system, a security is valued at the mean of the highest closing bid and lowest asked prices on the exchange or system where the security is principally traded. The Portfolios value their investments in money market funds based on their daily net asset values.

NEEDHAM FUNDS

Notes to Financial Statements

June 30, 2026 (Unaudited) (Continued)

Investment Transactions: Changes in holdings of portfolio securities for the Portfolios shall be reflected no later than in the first calculation on the first business day following the trade date for purposes of calculating each Portfolio's daily net asset value per share. However, for financial reporting purposes, portfolio security transactions are reported on the trade date of the last business day of the reporting period. The cost (proceeds) of investments sold (sold short) is determined on a specific identification basis for the purpose of determining gains or losses on sales and buys to cover short positions. Dividend income, distributions to shareholders and dividend expense from securities sold short are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income and interest expense from securities sold short is recorded on an accrual basis.

Foreign Currency: Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars as follows: (i) assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange at the end of the respective period; and (ii) purchases and sales of securities and income and expenses at the rate of exchange prevailing on the dates of such transactions. The portion of realized/unrealized gains (losses) arising from changes in the exchange rates are included with the net realized/unrealized gain (loss) from affiliated and unaffiliated securities, securities sold short and foreign currency translations. Principal risks associated with such transactions include the movement in value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the counterparty to perform.

The Portfolios may also invest in forward currency contracts. Fluctuations in the value of such forward currency transactions are recorded daily as unrealized gain or loss. Realized gain or loss includes net gain or loss on transactions that have terminated by settlement. These instruments involve securities and currency market risk, credit risk, or both kinds of risks, in excess of the amount recognized in the statements of assets and liabilities. Risks also arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The Portfolios did not enter into forward currency contracts during the period ended June 30, 2026.

Allocation of Expenses: Expenses directly attributable to a Portfolio are charged directly to that Portfolio, while expenses which are attributable to more than one Portfolio are allocated among the respective Portfolios based upon relative net assets or some other reasonable method.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period.

Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Distributions to Shareholders: Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid annually for the Portfolios. Distributable net realized gains, if any, are declared and distributed at least annually.

Federal Income Taxes: It is the policy of each Portfolio to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code, by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized capital gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the Portfolios' financial statements.

As of December 31, 2025, the Portfolios did not have any tax positions that did not meet the "more-likely-than- not" threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Open tax years are those that are open for exam by Federal and state taxing authorities. As of December 31, 2025, open Federal and New York tax years include the tax years ended December 31, 2022 through December 31, 2025. The Portfolios have no tax examinations in progress.

Fair Value Measurements: Valuation inputs used to determine the value of the Portfolios' investments are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1 -

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Portfolios have 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 in an inactive market, prices 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 relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Portfolios' own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

NEEDHAM FUNDS

Notes to Financial Statements

June 30, 2026 (Unaudited) (Continued)

The inputs or methodology used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Portfolio securities listed or traded on securities exchanges, including ADRs, are valued at the closing price on the exchange or system where the security is principally traded or at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. If there have been no sales for that day on the exchange or system, a security is valued at the mean of the highest closing bid and lowest asked prices on the exchange or system where the security is principally traded. These valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

Fair value pricing may be used if events materially affecting the value of foreign securities occur between the times the exchange on which they are traded closes and the time the Portfolios' net asset values are calculated. These valuations are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The following is a summary categorization, as of June 30, 2026, of each Portfolio's investments based on the level of inputs utilized in determining the value of such investments:

Notes to Financial Statements

June 30, 2026 (Unaudited) (Continued)

Needham Investment Management L.L.C. ("the Adviser") acts as the Company's chief operating decision maker (CODM) assessing performance and making decisions about resource allocation. The CODM has determined that the Company has a single operating segment based on the fact that the CODM monitors the operating results of the Company as a whole and that the Company's long-term strategic asset allocation is pre-determined in accordance with the terms of its prospectus, based on a defined investment strategy which is executed by the Company's portfolio managers as a team.

The financial information in the form of portfolio composition, total returns, expense ratios and changes in net assets which are used by the CODM to assess the segment's performance versus comparative benchmarks and to make resource allocation decisions for the Corporation's single segment, is consistent with that presented within the financial statements. Segment assets are reflected on the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities as "net assets" and significant segment expenses are listed on the accompanying statement of operations.

4.	INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES

The Company has engaged the Adviser to manage its investments pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement. The Company pays the Adviser an investment advisory fee at the annual rate of 1.25% of the respective average daily net assets of each Portfolio.

The Adviser has entered into an agreement with the Company (the "Expense Limitation Agreement") whereby the Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee for, and to reimburse expenses of, the Institutional Class and Retail Class shares of each Portfolio in an amount that limits annual operating expenses to not more than 1.18% and 1.85% of the average daily net assets of each Portfolio's Institutional Class and Retail Class, respectively (excluding taxes, interest, brokerage, dividends on short positions, acquired fund fees and expenses and extraordinary items, but including the investment advisory fee stated in the Investment Advisory Agreement). The Expense Limitation Agreement is effective for the period from March 31, 2026 through March 31, 2027. The Expense Limitation Agreement shall continue in effect from year to year thereafter only upon mutual agreement of the Company and the Adviser. Similar agreements were in effect for periods prior to March 31, 2026 for NGF and NSCGF. Prior to March 31, 2026, the Adviser had contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee for, and to reimburse the expenses of, the Institutional and Retail Class Shares of NGF in an amount that limits annual operating expenses to not more than 1.21% and 1.95% of the average daily net assets of each Portfolio's Institutional Class and Retail Class, respectively (excluding taxes, interest, brokerage, dividends on short positions, acquired fund fees and expenses and extraordinary items, but including the investment advisory fee stated in the Investment Advisory Agreement).

For the periods presented in these financial statements, whenever the reimbursement of expenses and/or the waiver of management fees resulted in different classes of a Portfolio paying different management or custodial fees (or other expenses related to the management of the Portfolio's assets), the Adviser has waived and/or reimburse such management or custodial fees (or other expenses related to the management of the Portfolio's assets) to the extent necessary to eliminate such difference.

Any reimbursements or fee waivers made by the Adviser in respect of a Portfolio are subject to recoupment by the Adviser, to the extent that the Portfolio is able to make the repayment within the expense limitation established in the Expense Limitation Agreement. Under the Expense Limitation Agreement, the Adviser has a right to receive from each Portfolio class reimbursement for fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements made pursuant to the Agreement for a period of up to 36 months from the time of any waiver or reimbursement. The table below contains the amounts of fee waivers and expense reimbursements subject to recapture by the Adviser through December 31 of the period indicated:

	2029		2028		2027		2026		Total
NGF (Retail Class)	$	-	$	-	$	-	$	-	$	-

The Company and U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC (the "Administrator") are parties to a Fund Administration Servicing Agreement. The Administrator provides administrative and fund accounting services pursuant to this agreement and, in consideration of these services, receives a fee computed daily and paid monthly at an annual rate based on a percentage of the value of each Portfolio's

assets. The Administrator is also compensated for any out of pocket expenses that are reasonably incurred in carrying out its duties under this agreement. The Administrator also provides transfer agent services pursuant to a Transfer Agent Servicing Agreement for additional fees.

Certain officers of the Company are also officers of the Adviser and/or Needham & Company, LLC (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of the Adviser. Such officers receive no fees from the Company for serving as officers of the Company. Each of the two Directors who is not an "interested person" (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Company (each, an "Independent Director") receives a quarterly retainer of $3,750 and a per-meeting fee of $1,000. Each Independent Director is also a member of the Audit Committee of the Board and receives a fee of $1,000 per meeting attended. An affiliate of the Adviser provides an employee to serve as Chief Compliance Officer for the Company and to provide certain related services. The affiliate pays the Chief Compliance Officer's compensation for acting as such and the Company reimburses the affiliate for the Company's allocated portion of the expense.

5.	DISTRIBUTION PLAN AND BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS

The Company has adopted an Amended and Restated Plan of Distribution pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Plan, each Portfolio may pay compensation to the Distributor or any other distributor or financial institution with which the Company has an agreement with respect to the Retail Class of each Portfolio, with the amount of such compensation not to exceed an annual rate of 0.25% of the daily average net assets of each Portfolio's Retail Class shares. During the period ended June 30, 2026, NGF, NAGF, and NSCGF Retail Class shares incurred $118,812, $486,856 and $73,353, respectively, pursuant to the Plan.

During the period ended June 30, 2026, NGF, NAGF and NSCGF incurred and paid brokerage commissions to the Distributor in the amount of $7,864, $241,081 and $91,580, respectively.

6.	TEMPORARY BORROWINGS

Each Portfolio may borrow from banks up to 25% of its total assets and may pledge its assets in connection with these borrowings, provided that no additional investments shall be made while borrowings exceed 5% of total assets.

The Portfolios did not engage in any temporary borrowings during the period ended June 30, 2026.

7.	SHORT SALE TRANSACTIONS

During the period ended June 30, 2026, NGF, NAGF and NSCGF sold securities short. Upon selling a security short, the Portfolios record an asset for the settlement amount as "Deposit with Broker for Securities Sold Short" and a corresponding liability, which is marked-to-market to reflect current value. The broker for the Portfolios' short sale transactions requires maintenance by each Portfolio of a minimum amount of collateral at all times, regardless of whether any short sales are outstanding. To the extent necessary to meet the broker's collateral requirements for open short positions, additional securities will be segregated above the minimum to cover the short positions. At June 30, 2026, the market value of securities separately segregated to cover short positions was $1,223,550, $1,149,210 and $1,392,400 in NGF, NAGF and NSCGF, respectively.

NGF, NAGF and NSCGF did not hold any securities sold short as of June 30, 2026.

Short Sale Transactions		584,422		557,627

9.	FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK

In the normal course of their business, the Portfolios may engage in transactions with off-balance sheet risk, including securities sold short, written options, futures, and forward currency contracts. Transactions in certain financial instruments represent future commitments to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specified future dates. Each of these financial instruments contains varying degrees of off-balance sheet risk whereby changes in the market values of the securities underlying the financial instruments may be in excess of the amounts recognized in the financial statements.

Securities sold short represent obligations of the Portfolios to make future delivery of specific securities and, correspondingly, create an obligation to purchase the securities at market prices prevailing at a later delivery date (or to deliver the securities if already owned by the Portfolios). As a result, short sales create the risk that the Portfolios' ultimate obligation to satisfy the delivery requirements may exceed the amount of the proceeds initially received on the liability recorded in the financial statements.

10.

INDEMNIFICATION

Under the Company's organizational documents, the Company's Directors and Officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Company. In addition, in the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Company's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the Company has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

No provision for federal income taxes is required since the Company intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute substantially all of its taxable income and capital gains to shareholders. Because income tax regulations differ from GAAP, the timing and character of income and capital gain distributions determined in accordance with tax regulations can differ from income and capital gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the character of distributions and the composition of net assets for tax purposes can differ from those reflected in the financial statements. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent in nature. Temporary differences are generally due to differing book and tax treatment for the timing of the recognition of gains and losses on securities, including post-October losses (as described below). Permanent differences are generally due to differing treatment of net investment losses and distributions paid in connection with redemptions. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to paid-in capital or distributable earnings, as appropriate, in the period in which the differences arise. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share of each Portfolio. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the following table shows the reclassifications made:

	Distributable Earnings/ (Accumulated Deficit)			Paid In Capital
NGF	$	(2,407,430	)	$	2,407,430
NAGF		(347,450	)		347,450
NSCGF		1,042,606			(1,042,606	)

The tax character distributions paid during 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

As of December 31, 2025, the cost, gross unrealized appreciation, gross unrealized depreciation, and the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on securities, including proceeds from securities sold short for federal income tax purposes, were as follows:

	Cost		Gross Unrealized Appreciation		Gross Unrealized Depreciation			Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

NSCGF		143,600,175		27,169,781		(18,687,413	)		8,482,368

The difference between the tax cost of investments and the cost of investments for GAAP purposes is primarily due to the tax treatment for wash sale losses and as it relates to NAGF Passive Foreign Investment Company income. As of December 31, 2025, the components of distributable earnings (loss) on a tax basis were as follows:

	NGF			NAGF			NSCGF
Undistributed ordinary income	$	-		$	277,444		$	-
Undistributed long-term capital gains		6,880,114			-			-
Other accumulated appreciation (depreciation)		(250	)		(67	)		(44,519,434	)
Unrealized appreciation (depreciation)		90,750,178			342,493,454			8,482,368
Total accumulated earnings (loss)	$	97,630,042		$	342,770,831		$	(36,037,066	)

As of December 31, 2025, the Funds had accumulated capital loss carryovers of:

	Capital Loss Carryover ST			Capital Loss Carryover LT			Expires

NAGF	$	-		$	-			Indefinite
NSCGF	$	(7,607,383	)	$	(36,912,051	)		Indefinite

Under current tax law, capital and currency losses realized after October 31 of a Portfolio's fiscal year may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first business day of the following fiscal year for tax purposes. For the year ended December 31, 2025, NGF, NAGF, and NSCGF had $250, $-, and $- of losses to defer, respectively.

Statement Regarding Liquidity Risk Management Program

The Company has adopted a liquidity risk management program (the "LRMP") pursuant to the requirements of Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act, which requires registered open-end funds (other than money market funds) to adopt and implement a written liquidity risk management program that is reasonably designed to assess and manage fund liquidity risk. The rule is designed to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end fund industry, thereby reducing liquidity risk-i.e., the risk that a fund could not meet requests to redeem shares issued by the fund without significant dilution of remaining investors' interests in the fund.

Pursuant to the requirements of Rule 22e-4, the LRMP is required to include policies and procedures reasonably designed to incorporate the following elements, and the LRMP complies with these requirements: (1) assessment, management and periodic review of liquidity risk; (2) classification of each Portfolio's investments into one of the four liquidity categories in Rule 22e-4; (3) if the Portfolio does not primarily hold assets that are considered highly liquid investments (cash and other investments reasonably expected to be convertible into cash in current market conditions in three business days or less without the conversion into cash significantly changing the market value of the investment), determination of a "highly liquid investment minimum" (as defined in Rule 22e-4, the "HLIM") and compliance with additional related requirements; (4) prohibition on the acquisition of any "illiquid investment" (as defined in Rule 22e-4) if immediately after the acquisition the Portfolio would have invested more than 15% of its net assets in illiquid investments; and (5) if the Portfolios reserve the right to engage in redemptions in-kind, establishment of policies and procedures regarding how and when the Portfolios will engage in such redemptions in-kind. There have been no material changes to the LRMP since it was initially approved by the Board.

The Board has approved the Adviser to administer the LRMP (the "Program Administrator"). As Program Administrator, the Adviser delegates the day-to-day activities required by the LRMP to a Liquidity Committee comprised of various Company officers and others within the Adviser (the "Liquidity Committee"), and the Liquidity Committee seeks assistance from and works together with Fund Services in effectuating the requirements of the LRMP as necessary.

Pursuant to the requirements of Rule 22e-4, the Board must review, no less frequently than annually, a written report prepared by the Program Administrator that addresses the operation of the program and assesses its adequacy and effectiveness of implementation, including, if applicable, the operation of the HLIM, and any material changes to the program. The Board received a written report in October 2025 (the "Annual Report").

The Annual Report states that the Adviser, as the Program Administrator, acting primarily through the Liquidity Committee, has assessed the operation of the LRMP and believes that the LRMP is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Portfolios' liquidity risk and is adequate and effective in its implementation. The Program Administrator and the Liquidity Committee initially determined that each Portfolio primarily holds assets that are highly liquid investments, and the Annual Report states that this determination continues to be maintained so that no Portfolio needs to maintain a HLIM. In addition, the Annual Report states that, since the LRMP was implemented, no Portfolio has breached its limit on illiquid investments.
