    The Funds seek to enhance shareholder value by repurchasing their common shares when trading at a discount to the Fund's net asset value ("NAV") per share. All repurchased shares are canceled and the difference between the purchase price and NAV results in incremental accretion to the Fund's NAV for all common shareholders.

    Each Fund's Board of Directors/Trustees has authorized each Fund to repurchase shares when they are trading at a discount to NAV. Each Fund's repurchase activity will be disclosed in its shareholder report for the relevant fiscal period.

Generally, the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "project," "will," and similar expressions identify forward looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual future results to differ significantly from each Fund's present expectations or projections indicated in any forward-looking statements. These risks include, but are not limited to, changes in economic and political conditions; regulatory and legal changes; leverage risk; valuation risk; interest rate risk; tax risk; disruption to investment advisory, administration and other service arrangements; and other risks discussed in the Fund's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
