Since net earning rates fluctuate from month to month while monthly dividends have remained relatively stable, there will be periods when the Fund may over-earn or under-earn its monthly dividend, which would have the effect of adding to or subtracting from the Fund's undistributed (overdistributed) net investment income balance. Fund management analyzes the Fund's current and projected net earning rates prior to recommending dividend amounts to the Fund's Board of Trustees for declaration. There can be no assurance that the current dividend rate or the undistributed (overdistributed) net investment income balance will remain constant. In accordance with federal income tax treatment, excludes market premium amortization on corporate bonds. |

(c) |
Net Investment Income for the fiscal quarters ended May 31, 2009 and May 31, 2008 include market premium amortization of $453,114 ($0.01 per common share) and $645,559 ($0.01 per common share), respectively. For tax purposes, the Fund has elected not to amortize market premium on corporate bonds. |
