Security Valuation - The net asset value of the Fund is determined daily as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (the "Exchange") on each day the Exchange is open for business. Equity investments are valued at market value, which is generally determined using the closing price on the exchange or market on which the security is primarily traded at the time of valuation (the “Valuation Time”). If no sales  are  reported, equity investments are generally valued at the most recent bid quotation as of the Valuation Time or at the lowest ask quotation in the case  of a short sale of securities. Debt securities with a remaining maturity greater than 60 days are valued in accordance with the price supplied by a  pricing service, which may use a matrix, formula or other objective method that takes into consideration market indices, yield curves and other specific adjustments. Debt obligations that will mature in 60 days or less are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates market value, unless it  is determined that this method would not represent fair value. Investments in mutual funds are valued at the mutual fund’s closing net asset value per  share on the day of valuation. Securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the Fund’s Valuation Time, but after the close of the securities’ primary market, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by, or under the direction of, the Board of Directors under procedures established by the Board of Directors. The Fund may  utilize a service provided by an independent third party which has been approved by the Board of Directors to fair value certain securities. When fair- value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the  same securities. At January 31, 2007, the Fund held 10.14% of its net assets in securities valued at fair value as determined in good faith under  procedures established by the Board of Directors with an aggregate cost of $21,906,406 and fair value of $17,266,259. The Fund’s estimate of fair  value assumes a willing buyer and a willing seller neither acting under the compulsion to buy or sell. Although these securities may be resold in  privately negotiated transactions, the prices realized on such sales could differ from the prices originally paid by the Fund or the current carrying  values, and the difference could be material.

 

Restricted Securities - Certain of the Fund’s investments are restricted as to resale and are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by, or under  the direction of, the Board of Directors under procedures established by the Board of Directors in the absence of readily ascertainable market values.
