Class A Shares, Class A-2 Shares and Class I Shares will be sold on a continuous basis at the Fund’s then current net asset value (“NAV”) per Share, plus for Class A Shares and Class A-2 Shares only, a maximum front-end sales commission of 2.50%. While neither the Fund nor the Distributor impose a front-end sales commission on Class I Shares, if you buy Class I Shares through certain financial firms, they may directly charge you transaction or other fees in such amount as they may determine. Please consult your financial firm for additional information.

  3. Investors that purchase $250,000 or more of the Fund’s Class A Shares and/or Class A-2 Shares will not pay any initial sales charge on the purchase.

  5. 1

    The above table illustrates the aggregate fees and expenses (based on average net assets) that the Fund expects to incur and that Shareholders can expect to bear directly or indirectly. Because the Fund has a limited operating history, many of these expenses are estimates

  6. 2

    The Management Fee paid by the Fund is calculated at the annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily value of the Fund’s Managed Assets which includes assets purchased with borrowed money. The table above assumes that the Fund borrows money for investment purposes at an average amount of 13.29% of its Managed Assets, which is the percentage of the Fund’s average borrowings to average Managed Assets  for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The Management Fee in the table is greater than 1.25% since it is computed as a percentage of the Fund’s net assets for presentation therein. “Managed Assets” means the total assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to borrowings for investment purposes) minus the sum of the Fund’s accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing borrowings for investment purposes).

  7. 3

    Interest Payments on Borrowed Funds are based on average borrowings and interest rates for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, average borrowings represented approximately 13.29% of the Fund’s average Managed Assets and the Fund bears expenses relating to such borrowings at an annual effective interest rate of 10.35% (plus applicable fees the Fund incurs in connection with its credit facility).

  9. 5

    The annual expense ratio is based on expenses incurred by the fund, as stated in the most recent prospectus. FEIM has contractually undertaken to waive and/or reimburse certain fees and expenses of the Fund so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, and extraordinary expenses, if any) (‘‘annual operating expenses’’) of the Class A, Class A-2 and Class I shareholders are limited to 2.25%, 2.75% and 2.00%, respectively, of average net assets. This undertaking lasts until April 30, 2025 and may not be terminated during its term without the consent of the Board of Trustees. The Fund has agreed to repay the Adviser for fees and expenses waived or reimbursed for the class provided that repayment does not cause annual operating expenses (after the repayment is taken into account) to exceed 2.25%, 2.75% and 2.00% of the class’ average net assets, or such other lower amount as may be in place at the time of repayment. Any such repayment must be made within three years after the date in which the Fund incurred the fee and/or expense.

  10. 6

    The Adjusted Expense Ratio excludes certain investment expenses, such as interest expense from borrowings and repurchase agreements and dividend expense from investments on short sales, incurred directly by the Fund or indirectly through the Fund’s investments in underlying First Eagle Funds (if applicable), none of which are paid to First Eagle.

  11. 7

    The Management Fee paid by the Fund is calculated at the annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily value of the Fund’s Managed Assets which includes assets purchased with borrowed money.

The minimum initial investment may also be modified for current officers, trustees, directors, and employees of the Fund, First Eagle, the Adviser, the Subadviser, the Distributor, certain other subsidiaries of First Eagle, The Blackstone Group Inc., Corsair Capital LLC, employees of certain firms providing services to the Fund (such as the custodian and the shareholder servicing agent), and to the immediate family members of any such persons or to any trust, pension, profit-sharing or other benefit plan for only such persons.

The table above assumes that the Fund borrows money for investment purposes at an average amount of 25.5% of its Managed Assets.

    7. 6

        The Fund continuously offers its Common Shares through FEF Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”), as principal underwriter, on a best efforts basis. Class A-2 Shares, Class A-3 Shares, Class A-4 Shares and Class I Shares will be sold on a continuous basis at the Fund’s then current NAV per Share. While neither the Fund nor the Distributor impose a sales commission on Class A-3 Shares or Class I Shares, if you buy Class A-3 Shares or Class I Shares through certain financial firms, they may directly charge you transaction or other fees in such amount as they may determine. Please consult your financial firm for additional information.

      3. 2

        Investors that purchase $250,000 or more of the Fund’s Class A-2 Shares and/or Class A-4 Shares will not pay any initial sales charge on the purchase. However, unless eligible for a waiver, purchases of $250,000 or more of Class A-2 Shares or Class A-4 Shares will be subject to an early withdrawal charge of 1.50% if the shares are repurchased during the first 12 months after their purchase. See “Early Withdrawal Charges—Class A-2 Shares and Class A-4 Shares”.

      4. 3

        The Fund does not currently charge a repurchase fee. However, in the future the Fund may charge a repurchase fee of up to 2.00%.

      5. 4

        The expense table above is based on estimated average net assets of approximately $100,000,000.

      6. 5

        The Management Fee paid by the Fund is calculated at the annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily value of the Fund’s Managed Assets, which includes assets purchased with borrowed money including, for this purpose, amounts attributable to the Fund’s use of reverse repurchase agreement financing. The table above assumes that the Fund borrows money for investment purposes at an average amount of 25.5% of its Managed Assets. The Management Fee in the table is greater than 1.25% since it is computed as a percentage of the Fund’s net assets for presentation therein. “Managed Assets” means the total assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to borrowings for investment purposes) minus the sum of the Fund’s accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing borrowings for investment purposes).

      7. 6

        Interest Payments on Borrowed Funds are based on estimated levels of borrowing and estimated interest rates for the current fiscal year expected to be incurred in connection with the Fund’s credit facility and reverse repurchase agreements. If the Fund were to incur higher levels of borrowing or pay higher interest rates, interest payments on borrowed funds as a percentage of net assets would be higher

      8. 7

        Other Expenses - General include, but are not limited to, accounting, legal and auditing fees of the Fund, fees for research services, acquired fund fees and expenses, as well as fees payable to the Independent Trustees. Other Expenses - General are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year.

      9. 8

        Other Expenses - Tax Expense includes income taxes payable by the Fund’s TRSs. The Fund’s tax expense is based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year and may differ from the estimated amount above. Please note that the tax expense estimates both federal and potential state & local tax rates.

      10. 9

        The Adviser has contractually undertaken to waive and/or reimburse certain fees and expenses of the Fund so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, and extraordinary expenses, if any) (“annual operating expenses”) of the Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4 and Class I shareholders are limited to 1.00%, 1.00%, 0.75% and 0.25%, respectively, of average net assets. This undertaking lasts until April 30, 2026 and may not be terminated during its term without the consent of the Board of Trustees. The Fund has agreed to repay the Adviser for fees and expenses waived or reimbursed for the class provided that repayment does not cause annual operating expenses (after the repayment is taken into account) to exceed either: (1) 1.00%, 1.00%, 0.75% and 0.25% of the class’s average net assets, respectively, or (2) if applicable, the then-current expense limitations. Any such repayment must be made within three years after the date on which the Fund incurred the fee and/or expense and is limited to the lesser of (1) the expense limitation in effect at the time of waiver, and (2) the expense limitation in effect at the time of recapture.

                    2. The Fund continuously offers its Common Shares through “the Distributor”, as principal underwriter, on a best efforts basis. Class A Shares, Class A-2 Shares and Class I Shares will be sold on a continuous basis at the Fund’s then current net asset value (“NAV”) per Share, plus for Class A Shares and Class A-2 Shares only, a maximum front-end sales commission of 2.50%. While neither the Fund nor the Distributor impose a front-end sales commission on Class I Shares, if you buy Class I Shares through certain financial firms, they may directly charge you transaction or other fees in such amount as they may determine. Please consult your financial firm for additional information.

                    3. Investors that purchase $250,000 or more of the Fund’s Class A Shares and/or Class A-2 Shares will not pay any initial sales charge on the purchase. However, unless eligible for a waiver, purchases of $250,000 or more of Class A Shares or Class A-2 Shares will be subject to an early withdrawal charge of 1.50% if the shares are repurchased during the first 12 months after their purchase. See “Early Withdrawal Charges—Class A Shares and Class A-2 Shares”

                    4. The Fund does not currently charge a repurchase fee. However, in the future the Fund may charge a repurchase fee of up to 2.00%.

                    5. 1

                      The above table illustrates the aggregate fees and expenses (based on average net assets) that the Fund expects to incur and that Shareholders can expect to bear directly or indirectly. Because the Fund has a limited operating history, many of these expenses are estimates

                    6. 2

                      The Management Fee paid by the Fund is calculated at the annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily value of the Fund’s Managed Assets which includes assets purchased with borrowed money. The table above assumes that the Fund borrows money for investment purposes at an average amount of 13.29% of its Managed Assets, which is the percentage of the Fund’s average borrowings to average Managed Assets  for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The Management Fee in the table is greater than 1.25% since it is computed as a percentage of the Fund’s net assets for presentation therein. “Managed Assets” means the total assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to borrowings for investment purposes) minus the sum of the Fund’s accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing borrowings for investment purposes).

                    7. 3

                      Interest Payments on Borrowed Funds are based on average borrowings and interest rates for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, average borrowings represented approximately 13.29% of the Fund’s average Managed Assets and the Fund bears expenses relating to such borrowings at an annual effective interest rate of 10.35% (plus applicable fees the Fund incurs in connection with its credit facility).

                    8. 4

                      Other expenses include, but are not limited to, accounting, legal and auditing fees of the Fund, acquired fund fees and expenses, as well as fees payable to the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Fund (as defined in the 1940 Act) (“Independent Trustees”).

                    9. 5

                      The annual expense ratio is based on expenses incurred by the fund, as stated in the most recent prospectus. FEIM has contractually undertaken to waive and/or reimburse certain fees and expenses of the Fund so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, and extraordinary expenses, if any) (‘‘annual operating expenses’’) of the Class A, Class A-2 and Class I shareholders are limited to 2.25%, 2.75% and 2.00%, respectively, of average net assets. This undertaking lasts until April 30, 2025 and may not be terminated during its term without the consent of the Board of Trustees. The Fund has agreed to repay the Adviser for fees and expenses waived or reimbursed for the class provided that repayment does not cause annual operating expenses (after the repayment is taken into account) to exceed 2.25%, 2.75% and 2.00% of the class’ average net assets, or such other lower amount as may be in place at the time of repayment. Any such repayment must be made within three years after the date in which the Fund incurred the fee and/or expense.

                    10. 6

                      The Adjusted Expense Ratio excludes certain investment expenses, such as interest expense from borrowings and repurchase agreements and dividend expense from investments on short sales, incurred directly by the Fund or indirectly through the Fund’s investments in underlying First Eagle Funds (if applicable), none of which are paid to First Eagle.

                    11. 7

                      The Management Fee paid by the Fund is calculated at the annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily value of the Fund’s Managed Assets which includes assets purchased with borrowed money. The table above assumes that the Fund borrows money for investment purposes at an average amount of 13.29% of its Managed Assets, which is the percentage of the Fund’s average borrowings to average Managed Assets for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The Management Fee in the table is greater than 1.25% since it is computed as a percentage of the Fund’s net assets for presentation therein. “Managed Assets” means the total assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to borrowings for investment purposes) minus the sum of the Fund’s accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing borrowings for investment purposes).

                    12. Class A-2 Shares. The minimum initial investment for Class A2 Shares is $2,500 per account. The minimum subsequent investment amount for Class A2 Shares is $100.

                    13. The initial investment minimums may be modified for certain financial firms that submit orders on behalf of their customers. The Fund or the Distributor may lower or waive the minimum initial investment for certain classes of shares or categories of investors at their discretion. The minimum initial investment may also be modified for current officers, trustees, directors, and employees of the Fund, First Eagle, the Adviser, the Subadviser, the Distributor, certain other subsidiaries of First Eagle, The Blackstone Group Inc., Corsair Capital LLC, employees of certain firms providing services to the Fund (such as the custodian and the shareholder servicing agent), and to the immediate family members of any such persons or to any trust, pension, profit-sharing or other benefit plan for only such persons. Please see the Statement of Additional Information for details.

                    14. The Credit Opportunities Fund is an Interval Fund, a type of fund that, in order to provide liquidity to shareholders, has adopted a fundamental investment policy to make quarterly offers to repurchase between 5% and 25% of its outstanding Common Shares at net asset value (“NAV”). Subject to applicable law and approval of the Board of Trustees for each quarterly repurchase offer, the Fund currently expects to offer to repurchase 5% of the Fund’s outstanding Common Shares at NAV on a quarterly basis.

                    15. The Credit Opportunities Fund’s Common Shares are not listed for trading on any national securities exchange, have no trading market and no market is expected to develop.

                            First Eagle Investment Management, LLC (the “Adviser”) has contractually agreed to waive and/or reimburse certain fees and expenses of Classes A, I and R6 so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding interest charges on any borrowings, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities and other investment instruments, acquired fund fees and expenses, dividend and other expenses relating to short sales, and extraordinary expenses, if any) (‘‘annual operating expenses’’) of each class are limited to 0.85%, 0.60% and 0.60% of average net assets, respectively. Each of these undertakings lasts until February 28, 2026 and may not be terminated during its term without the consent of the Board of Trustees. The Short Duration High Yield Municipal Fund has agreed that each of Classes A, I and R6 will repay the Adviser for fees and expenses waived or reimbursed for the class provided that repayment does not cause annual operating expenses (after the repayment is taken into account) to exceed the lesser of: (1) 0.85%, 0.60% and 0.60% of the class’ average net assets, respectively; or (2) if applicable, the then-current expense limitations. Any such repayment must be made within three years after the year in which the Adviser incurred the expense.

                          2. 1

                            The Fund continuously offers its Common Shares through FEF Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”), as principal underwriter, on a best efforts basis. Class A-2 Shares, Class A-3 Shares, Class A-4 Shares and Class I Shares will be sold on a continuous basis at the Fund’s then current NAV per Share. While neither the Fund nor the Distributor impose a sales commission on Class A-3 Shares or Class I Shares, if you buy Class A-3 Shares or Class I Shares through certain financial firms, they may directly charge you transaction or other fees in such amount as they may determine. Please consult your financial firm for additional information.

                          3. 2

                            Investors that purchase $250,000 or more of the Fund’s Class A-2 Shares and/or Class A-4 Shares will not pay any initial sales charge on the purchase. However, unless eligible for a waiver, purchases of $250,000 or more of Class A-2 Shares or Class A-4 Shares will be subject to an early withdrawal charge of 1.50% if the shares are repurchased during the first 12 months after their purchase. See “Early Withdrawal Charges—Class A-2 Shares and Class A-4 Shares”.

                          4. 3

                            The Fund does not currently charge a repurchase fee. However, in the future the Fund may charge a repurchase fee of up to 2.00%.

                          5. 4

                            The expense table above is based on estimated average net assets of approximately $100,000,000.

                          6. 5

                            The Management Fee paid by the Fund is calculated at the annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily value of the Fund’s Managed Assets, which includes assets purchased with borrowed money including, for this purpose, amounts attributable to the Fund’s use of reverse repurchase agreement financing. The table above assumes that the Fund borrows money for investment purposes at an average amount of 25.5% of its Managed Assets. The Management Fee in the table is greater than 1.25% since it is computed as a percentage of the Fund’s net assets for presentation therein. “Managed Assets” means the total assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to borrowings for investment purposes) minus the sum of the Fund’s accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing borrowings for investment purposes).

                          7. 6

                            Interest Payments on Borrowed Funds are based on estimated levels of borrowing and estimated interest rates for the current fiscal year expected to be incurred in connection with the Fund’s credit facility and reverse repurchase agreements. If the Fund were to incur higher levels of borrowing or pay higher interest rates, interest payments on borrowed funds as a percentage of net assets would be higher

                          8. 7

                            Other Expenses - General include, but are not limited to, accounting, legal and auditing fees of the Fund, fees for research services, acquired fund fees and expenses, as well as fees payable to the Independent Trustees. Other Expenses - General are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year.

                          9. 8

                            Other Expenses - Tax Expense includes income taxes payable by the Fund’s TRSs. The Fund’s tax expense is based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year and may differ from the estimated amount above. Please note that the tax expense estimates both federal and potential state & local tax rates.

                          10. 9

                            The Adviser has contractually undertaken to waive and/or reimburse certain fees and expenses of the Fund so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, and extraordinary expenses, if any) (“annual operating expenses”) of the Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4 and Class I shareholders are limited to 1.00%, 1.00%, 0.75% and 0.25%, respectively, of average net assets. This undertaking lasts until April 30, 2026 and may not be terminated during its term without the consent of the Board of Trustees. The Fund has agreed to repay the Adviser for fees and expenses waived or reimbursed for the class provided that repayment does not cause annual operating expenses (after the repayment is taken into account) to exceed either: (1) 1.00%, 1.00%, 0.75% and 0.25% of the class’s average net assets, respectively, or (2) if applicable, the then-current expense limitations. Any such repayment must be made within three years after the date on which the Fund incurred the fee and/or expense and is limited to the lesser of (1) the expense limitation in effect at the time of waiver, and (2) the expense limitation in effect at the time of recapture. Additionally, the Adviser has agreed to pay the Fund’s organizational and offering costs until effectiveness of the Fund’s registration statement and such costs will not be recoupable by the Adviser.
