On July 16, 2014, International Game Technology (IGT) announced that it has entered into a definitive merger agreement with GTECH S.p.A. for the acquisition of International Game Technology at a premium to the Fund’s cost. Following the announcement, the Fund liquidated its remaining position in International Game Technology based on a small deviation between the stock price and our calculation of intrinsic value.
