Item 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER
This statement constitutes Amendment #4 to the schedule 13d
filed April 29, 2010. Except as specifically set forth
herein, the Schedule 13d remains unmodified.
ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
Shares of the Issuer have been accumulated on behalf of managed
accounts.
ITEM 4.PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
The incorrect number of outstanding shares was used to calculate the
reporting persons' percentage ownership in Amendment #3 filed
December 2, 2010 to their schedule 13d because they did not account
for the November 2010 tender offer, which reduced the number of
outstanding shares to 8,849,916. As indicated in Item 5 below, sales
made by the filing persons after December 2, 2010 actually reduced
their beneficial ownership to less than 5% of the outstanding shares
on December 6, 2010 (rather than on December 2, 2010 as incorrectly
indicated in Amendment #3).
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
As per the N-CSR filed on January 7, 2010 there were 11,212,000 shares
of common stock outstanding as of October 31, 2009. However, per the
tender offer Statement filed November 17, 2010, the number of outstanding
shares was subsequently reduced to 8,849,916. The percentage set forth in
this Item 5 was derived using such number. As of December 6, 2010,
Bulldog Investors, Brooklyn Capital Management, and Andrew Dakos
beneficially owned an aggregate of 399,256 shares of KEF or 4.51% of the
outstanding shares. Power to dispose of and vote securities resides
either with Mr. Dakos or with clients.
c) Since the last filing on 12/2/10 the following shares of KEF were sold:
DATE SHARES PRICE
12/02/10 18,800 11.9585
12/03/10 36,700 12.0379
12/06/10 25,100 12.0426
12/06/10 45,000 12.0400
d) Beneficiaries of managed accounts are entitled to receive any
dividends or sales proceeds.
e) NA
ITEM 6. CONTRACTS,ARRANGEMENTS,UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge
and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this
statement is true, complete and correct.
