Cohen & Steers has implemented policies and procedures to address conflicts that arise as a result of its various
activities, as well as regulatory and other legal considerations. Some of these policies and procedures, such as Cohen &
Steers9 inside information policy and procedures, also have the effect of reducing firm-wide synergies and collaboration
that the Advisor could otherwise expect to utilize for purposes of identifying and managing attractive investments. Cohen
& Steers personnel may be unable, for example, to assist with our activities of as a result of these walls. There can be no
assurance that additional restrictions will not be imposed that would further limit the ability of Cohen & Steers to share
information internally.
Cohen & Steers is under no obligation to decline any engagements or investments in order to make an investment
opportunity available to us. Cohen & Steers has long-term relationships with a significant number of corporations and their
senior management. The Advisor and its affiliates will consider those relationships when evaluating an investment
opportunity, which may result in the Advisor or its affiliates choosing not to make such an investment due to such
relationships (e.g., investments in a competitor of a client or any other person with whom Cohen & Steers has a
relationship). We may be forced to sell or hold existing investments as a result of other relationships that Cohen & Steers
and its affiliates may have or transactions or investments Cohen & Steers and its affiliates may make or have made.
Therefore, there can be no assurance that all potentially suitable investment opportunities that come to the attention of
Cohen & Steers will be made available to us. See
