Annual NAV Total Return is the percentage change in the Fund’s NAV over a year including distributions paid and assuming reinvestment of these distributions. While the NAV performance may be indicative of the Fund’s investment performance, it does not measure the value of a stockholder’s investment in the Fund. The value of a stockholder’s investment in the Fund is determined by the Fund’s market price, which is based on the supply and demand for the Fund’s shares in the open market.

The Fund’s Board of Directors reviews the amount of any distributions made pursuant to the Fund’s distribution policy and considers the income earned and capital gains realized by the Fund, as well as the Fund’s available capital. The Board of Directors will continue to monitor the Fund’s distribution level, taking into consideration, among other things, the Fund’s net asset value and market conditions. The Fund’s distribution policy is subject to modification, suspension or termination by the Board of Directors at any time, which could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Fund’s shares. The distribution rate should not be considered the dividend yield or total return on an investment in the Fund.
