Fair Value Measurements
 
 
In determining the fair value of the Fund’s investments, various inputs are used. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
 
 
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
 
 
Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
 
 
Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including management’s assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
 
 
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the Fund's fair value measurements as of November 30, 2010:

Income Tax Information
 
 
The following information is presented on an income tax basis. Differences between amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes are primarily due to timing differences in recognizing taxable market discount, timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses on investment transactions and the treatment of investments in inverse floating rate securities reflected as financing transactions, if any. To the extent that differences arise that are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities presented in the annual report, based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Temporary and permanent differences do not impact the net asset value of the Fund.
 
 
At November 30, 2010, the cost of investments was $161,902,596.
 
 
Gross unrealized appreciation and gross unrealized depreciation of investments at November 30, 2010, were as follows:
 
   
Gross unrealized:

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 highest of Standard & Poor’s Group ("Standard & Poor's"), Moody’s Investor Service, Inc.
   
("Moody's") or Fitch, Inc. ("Fitch") rating. Ratings below BBB by Standard & Poor’s, Baa by Moody’s or BBB
   
by Fitch are considered to be below investment grade. Holdings designated N/R are not rated by any of
   
these national rating agencies.
(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)
 
This debt has been restructured to accommodate capital maintenance at the facility. Major highlights of
   
the debt restructuring include the following: (1) the principal balance outstanding on and after December 1,
   
2007, shall accrue interest at a rate of 6.500% per annum commencing December 1, 2007; (2) the interest
   
shall accrue but not be payable on June 1, 2008 or December 1, 2008, but shall instead be deferred and
   
paid by the end of calendar year 2011; (3) no principal component shall be pre-payable from the Minimum
   
Sinking Fund Account during calendar years 2008 and 2009 but such pre-payments shall recommence
   
beginning in calendar year 2010 according to a revised schedule. Management believes that the
   
restructuring is in the best interest of Fund shareholders and that it is more-likely-than-not that the borrower
   
will fulfill its obligation. Consequently, the Fund continues to accrue interest on this obligation.

Variable Rate Demand Preferred Shares, at Liquidation Value as a percentage of Total Investments is 30.3%.
