1. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS

    

At September 30, 2010, the net unrealized appreciation on investments, based on cost for federal income tax purposes of $7,744,748 amounted to $1,827,715, which consisted of aggregate gross unrealized appreciation of $1,960,035 and aggregate gross unrealized depreciation of $132,320.

       

2. SECURITY VALUATION

    

Equity securities generally are valued by using market quotations, but may be valued on the basis of prices furnished by a pricing service when the Advisor believes such prices accurately reflect the fair market value of such securities. Certain short-term securities are valued on the basis of amortized cost. Securities that are traded on any stock exchange or on the NASDAQ over-the-counter market are generally valued by the pricing service at the last quoted sale price. Lacking a last sale price, an equity security is generally valued by the pricing service at its last bid price. When market quotations are not readily available or if a security value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, when the Advisor determines that the market quotation or the price provided by the pricing service does not accurately reflect the current market value, or when restricted or illiquid securities are being valued, such securities are valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees. The Board has adopted guidelines for good faith pricing, and has delegated to the Advisor the responsibility for determining fair value prices, subject to review by the Board of Trustees.
