The following constitutes Amendment No. 1 ("Amendment No. 1") to the Schedule 13D filed on January 11, 2008 by the undersigned. Except as specifically set forth herein, the Schedule 13D remains unmodified.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
The filing persons have formed a group (the "Bulldog-Karpus Group") with the objective of affording all shareholders of the issuer an opportunity to obtain net asset value for their shares. The group beneficially owns 34.31% of the issuer's outstanding shares. On February 4, 2008, the Fund issued an 8-K stating that it had adopted a Discount Policy intended to reduce the discount to net asset value at which the Fund's common shares have periodically traded. Due to this announcement, the Bulldog-Karpus Group believes that it has sufficiently satisfied its objective and the group has therefore been terminated.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings, or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
