Fair Value Measurements
 
 
In determining the 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 July 31, 2010:

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
 
 
The Fund records derivative instruments at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized on the Statement of Operations, when applicable. Even though the Fund’s investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, they are not considered to be hedge transactions for financial reporting purposes.
 
The following table presents the fair value of all derivative instruments held by the Fund as of July 31, 2010, the location of these instruments on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, and the primary underlying risk exposure.

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 July 31, 2010, the cost of investments was $407,180,898.

investments in derivatives and/or inverse floating rate transactions. 
(6) 
The Fund’s Adviser has concluded this issue is not likely to meet its future interest payment obligations 
 
and has directed the Fund’s custodian to cease accruing additional income on the Fund’s records. 
(7) 
Auction Rate Preferred Shares, at Liquidation Value as a percentage of Total Investments is 23.1%. 
(8)

accruals on each forward swap contract.

(10) 
During the current fiscal period, the Fund has not received the full amount of interest payments due on this issue. As such, the Adviser has instructed the custodian to decrease the interest rate accrual on this issue from 12.00% annually to 2.50% annually and to reflect such change in the Fund’s records.
