    The Fund may invest in “zero coupon” securities. A zero coupon security does not pay a regular 
    interest coupon to its holders during the life of the security. Tax-exempt income to the holder of the 
    security comes from accretion of the difference between the original purchase price of the security 
    at issuance and the par value of the security at maturity and is effectively paid at maturity. Such 
    securities are included in the Portfolio of Investments with a 0.000% coupon rate in their description. 
    The market prices of zero coupon securities generally are more volatile than the market prices of 
    securities that pay interest periodically. 
(1)    All percentages shown in the Portfolio of Investments are based on net assets applicable to Common 
    shares unless otherwise noted. 
(2)    Optional Call Provisions: Dates (month and year) and prices of the earliest optional call or redemption. 
    There may be other call provisions at varying prices at later dates. Certain mortgage-backed securities 
    may be subject to periodic principal paydowns. 
(3)    Ratings: Using the higher of Standard & Poor’s or Moody’s rating. Ratings below BBB by Standard & 
    Poor’s Group or Baa by Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. are considered to be below investment grade. 
(4)    Backed by an escrow or trust containing sufficient U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency 
    securities which ensure the timely payment of principal and interest. Such investments are normally 
    considered to be equivalent to AAA rated securities. 
(5)    Effective date represents the date on which both the Fund and counterparty commence interest 
    payment accruals on each forward swap contract. 
N/R    Not rated. 
(ETM)    Escrowed to maturity.
