Performance data represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost; and the current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Fund performance is net of fees.

Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses of the Fund carefully before investing. Before investing, carefully read the prospectus, which can be found on the above website or by calling (888) 442-4420.

The Fund has limited operating history, limited liquidity, illiquid investments, and the shares have no history of public trading. The Fund's investment program is speculative and entails substantial risks. There can be no assurance that the Fund's investment objectives will be achieved or that its investment program will be successful Investors should consider the Fund as a supplement to an overall investment program and should invest only if they are willing to undertake the risks involved Investors could lose some or all of their investment.

Shares are an illiquid investment.

Summary of Risk Factors: . Shares are not listed on any securities exchange and it is not anticipated that a secondary market for Shares will develop. Thus, an investment in the Fund may not be suitable for you if you may need the money you invest in a specified timeframe. . You should generally not expect to be able to sell your Shares (other than through the repurchase process), regardless of how the Fund performs. . Although the Fund is required to implement a Share repurchase program, only a limited number of Shares will be eligible for repurchase by the Fund. Shares are not redeemable at a Shareholder's sole option nor are they exchangeable for shares of any other fund. As a result, you may not be able to sell or otherwise liquidate your Shares. . Shares are appropriate only for those investors who can tolerate a high degree of risk and do not require a liquid investment and for whom an investment in the Fund does not constitute a complete investment program. . Because you will be unable to sell your Shares or have them repurchased immediately, you will find it difficult to reduce your exposure on a timely basis during a market downturn. . All or a portion of an annual distribution may consist solely of a return of capital (i.e., from your original investment) and not a return of net investment income. . Shares are speculative and involve a high degree of risk and leverage. See "General Risks" in CPEFX's prospectus. . The amount of distributions the Fund may pay, if any, is uncertain. . The Fund may pay distributions in significant part from sources that may not be available in the future and that are unrelated to the Fund's performance, such as from offering proceeds, borrowings, and amounts from the Fund's affiliates that are subject to repayment by investors.

The Fund is a non-diversified management investment company and may be more susceptible to any single economic or regulatory occurrence than a diversified investment company. Cybersecurity risks have significantly increased in recent years and the Fund could suffer such losses in the future. Some of the principal risks of the Fund include limited operating history, limited liquidity, restricted and illiquid investments, non-diversification, and valuations subject to adjustments. The Fund may engage in the use of leverage, hedging, and other speculative investment practices that may accelerate losses.
