Notes to Schedule of Portfolio Investments (Unaudited)

Valuation of Investments
Portfolio securities are valued by various methods depending on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. Most equity securities for which the primary market is the United State are valued at the official closing price, last sale price or, if no sales has occurred, at the closing bid price.  Most equity securities for which the primary market is outside the United States are valued using the official closing price or the last sale price in the principal market in which they are traded.  If the last sale price (on the local exchange) is unavailable, the last evaluated quote or closing bid price normally is used.  Debt obligations with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Certain of the securities in which the Funds may invest are priced through pricing services that may utilize a matrix pricing system which takes into consideration factors such as yields, prices, maturities, call features, and ratings on comparable securities. Bonds may be valued according to prices quoted by a bond dealer that offers pricing services. Open end investment companies are valued at their net asset value. Foreign securities markets may be open on days when the U.S. markets are closed. For this reason, the value of any foreign securities owned by the Fund could change on a day when stockholders cannot buy or sell shares of the Fund. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or reliable and other assets may be valued as determined in good faith by the Investment Manager under the direction of and pursuant to procedures established by the Fund’s Board of Directors. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuation, these values may differ from the values that would have been used had a readily available market for the securities existed. These differences in valuation could be material. A security’s valuation may differ depending on the method used for determining value. The use of fair value pricing by the Fund may cause the net asset value of its shares to differ from the net asset value that would be calculated using market prices.

Fair Value Measurements
The Fund uses a three level hierarchy for fair value measurements based on the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Fund. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available under the circumstances. An investment in its entirety is assigned a level based upon the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation. The hierarchy of inputs is summarized below.

·  
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities including securities actively traded on a securities exchange.
·  
Level 2 - observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability which my included quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data.
·  
Level 3 - unobservable inputs for the asset or liability including the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments.

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of March 31, 2011 in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities carried at fair value. Refer to the Schedule of Portfolio Investments for detailed information on specific investments.

Cost for Federal Income Tax Purposes

Illiquid and Restricted Securities
The Fund owns securities which have a limited trading market and/or certain restrictions on trading and, therefore, may be illiquid and/or restricted. Such securities have been valued at fair value. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuation, these values may differ from the values that would have been used had a readily available market for the securities existed. These differences in valuation could be material. Illiquid and/or restricted securities owned at March 31, 2011, were as follows:

Securities Lending
The Fund may lend securities to qualified financial institutions. The Fund receives compensation in the form of fees, or retains a portion of the interest on the investment in any cash received as collateral. The Fund receives as collateral cash deposits, U.S. Government securities, or bank letters of credit valued greater than the value of the securities on loan. Cash deposits are invested in a money market fund. The value of the loaned securities is determined based upon the most recent closing prices and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. Any increase or decrease in the value of the securities loaned that might occur and any interest earned or dividends declared on those securities during the term of the loan is retained by the Fund. The Fund has the right under the lending agreement to recover the securities from the borrower on demand. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund bears the risk of delay on recovery or loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities default. The value of loaned securities and related collateral outstanding at March 31, 2011 was $852,648 and $877,140, respectively.
