 may source leverage through a number of methods, including through issuing preferred shares. In addition, the Fund may also use other forms of leverage including, but not limited to certain derivatives that have the economic effect of leverage. In addition, the Fund may also use other forms of leverage including, but not limited to, portfolio investments that have the economic effect of leverage, such as by investing in residual interest certificates of tender option bond trusts, also called inverse floating rate securities. The Fund may reduce or increase leverage based upon changes in market conditions and anticipates that its leverage ratio will vary from time to time based upon variations in the value of the Fund’s holdings. The Fund does not currently have any outstanding preferred shares. The Fund currently also invests in residual interest certificates of tender option bond trusts, also called inverse floating rate securities, that have the economic effect of leverage because the Fund’s investment exposure to the underlying bonds held by the trust have been effectively financed by the trust’s issuance of floating rate certificates. The amounts and forms of leverage used by the Fund may vary with prevailing market or economic conditions. The timing and terms of any leverage transactions are determined by the Board of Trustees. There is no assurance that the Fund’s leveraging strategy will be successful. The Fund may use derivative instruments (including futures and options) for a variety of purposes, including hedging, risk management, portfolio management or to earn income. So long as the net rate of income received from the Fund’s investments purchased with leverage proceeds exceeds the then current interest rate on such leverage, the investment of the proceeds of leverage will generate more net income than if the Fund had not leveraged itself. However, if the rate of net income received from the Fund’s portfolio investments purchased with the proceeds of leverage is less than the then current interest rate on that leverage, the Fund may be required to utilize other Fund assets to make interest payments on its leveraging instruments. The Fund pays a management fee to the Adviser (which in turn pays a portion of such fee to the Sub-Adviser) based on a percentage of Managed Assets. Managed Assets include the proceeds realized and managed from the Fund’s use of leverage (excluding the leverage exposure attributable to the use of futures, options and similar derivatives). Because Managed Assets includes the Fund’s net assets as well as assets that are attributable to the Fund’s investment of the proceeds of its leverage, it is anticipated that the Fund’s Managed Assets will be greater than its net assets. The Adviser will be responsible for using leverage to pursue the Fund’s investment objective
