Use of Estimates: The financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amount of increase or decrease in net assets from operations during the period reported. Management believes the estimates and security valuations are appropriate; however, actual results may differ from those estimates, and the security valuations reflected in the financial statements may differ from the value the Fund ultimately realizes upon sale of the securities.

The Fund’s net asset value per common share is calculated in the manner authorized by the Fund’s Board of Trustees (the "Board" or "Trustees"). Net asset value per share is computed by dividing the value of the Fund’s total assets, less its liabilities by the number of shares outstanding.

The Fund values commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS") and other debt securities not traded in an organized market on the basis of valuations provided by an independent pricing service, approved by the Board, which uses information with respect to transactions in such securities, interest rate movements, new issue information, cash flows, yields
