The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, short-term |
debt instruments and repurchase agreements with a maturity of less than 60 days are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment |
Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active |
market, such securities are reflected as Level 2. |

(2) Represents non-income producing securities. |
(3) Fair valued security deemed as Level 3 security. |
(4) Other financial instruments are derivative instruments not reflected in the Schedule of Investments, such as futures contracts, which are valued at the unrealized |
appreciation/depreciation on the instrument. |
