A. Significant Accounting Policies:

The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Such policies are consistently followed by the Funds in preparation of their financial statements.

Security Valuation: Securities traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange will be valued at the last sale price, or if no sale, at the mean between the latest bid and asked price. Securities traded in any other U.S. or foreign market shall be valued in a manner as similar as possible to the above, or if not so traded, on the basis of the latest available bid price. A security that is listed or traded on more than one exchange is valued at the quotation on the exchange determined to be the primary market for such security.

Investments in mutual funds are valued at the mutual fund’s closing net asset value per share on the day of valuation. Investments in other investment companies are valued at net asset value.

If market quotations are not readily available, or the price is not considered representative of market value, securities are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by the Trust’s Price Valuation Committee under procedures adopted by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (The “Board”).

Most foreign markets close before the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). If a Fund determines that developments between the close of a foreign market and the close of the NYSE will, in its judgment, materially affect the value of some or all of its portfolio securities, which in turn will affect the Fund’s share price, the Fund will adjust the previous closing prices to reflect the fair value of the securities as of the close of the NYSE, as determined in good faith by the Trust’s Price Valuation Committee, established by the Trust’s Board of Directors.

The Funds may also fair value securities in other situations, such as when a particular foreign market is closed but the Funds are open. In deciding whether to make fair value adjustments, the Funds review a variety of factors, including developments in foreign markets, the performance of U.S. securities markets, and the performance of instruments trading in U.S. markets that represent foreign securities and baskets of foreign securities. Unlike the closing price of a security on an exchange, fair value determinations employ elements of judgment. Consequently, the fair value assigned to a security may not represent the actual value that the Funds could obtain if it were to sell the security at the time of the close of the NYSE and the difference could be significant.

The Board has delegated the fair valuation of each Fund’s portfolio securities to the Adviser. BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc., which act as the Funds’ Sub-Administrator, is also responsible (in conjunction with oversight by the Adviser) for fair valuation of each Fund’s portfolio securities. To assist with their responsibilities, the Adviser and/ or Sub-Administrator may utilize an outside pricing service approved by the Board.

Fair Value Measurements: The Funds have performed an analysis of all existing investments to determine the significance and character of all inputs to their fair value determination. Fair value is defined as the value that the portfolio would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The levels of fair value inputs used to measure the Fund’s investments are characterized into a fair value hierarchy based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the portfolio. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund Management’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. Each investment is assigned a level in the fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:

    Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

    Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

    Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

Transfers in and out of levels 1, 2 and 3 of the fair value heirarchy are recognized as of the beginning of the reporting period. Of the level 1 investments presented above, equity investments amounting to $460,630,731 and $268,532,238 for the E.I.I. International Property Fund and E.I.I. Global Property Fund, respectively, were considered level 2 investments at the beginning of the period. The primary reason for changes in the classifications between levels 1 and 2 occurs when foreign equity securities are fair valued using other observable market-based inputs in place of the closing exchange price due to events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the investment is principally traded. The fund’s foreign equity securities may often be valued at fair value.

Foreign Currency Translation: Assets and liabilities initially expressed in non-U.S. currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on the applicable exchange rates at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities, interest income and dividends received are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect on the transaction date.

The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments in securities.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.

Security Transactions: Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statements and federal income tax purposes.
