The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) is the exclusive reference of
authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)
recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities.
Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal laws are also sources
of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The fund's
financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which
may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

Portfolio valuation: The fair value of a financial instrument is
the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer
a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at
the measurement date (i.e. the exit price). GAAP establishes a fair
value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs of valuation techniques
used to measure fair value. This hierarchy gives the highest priority
to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable
inputs (Level 3 measurements).
Additionally, GAAP provides guidance on determining whether the
volume and activity in a market has decreased significantly and
whether such a decrease in activity results in transactions that are not
orderly. GAAP requires enhanced disclosures around valuation inputs
and techniques used during annual and interim periods.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund’s investments
relating to fair value measurements. These inputs are summarized
in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for
identical investments.
Level 2—other significant observable inputs (including quoted
prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds,
credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own



assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily
an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an
assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. Valuation techniques
used to value the fund’s investments are as follows:
Investments in securities are valued each business day by an independent
pricing service (the “Service”) approved by the Board of
Directors. Investments for which quoted bid prices are readily available
and are representative of the bid side of the market in the judgment of
the Service are valued at the mean between the quoted bid prices (as
obtained by the Service from dealers in such securities) and asked
prices (as calculated by the Service based upon its evaluation of the
market for such securities). Other investments (which constitute a
majority of the portfolio securities) are carried at fair value as determined
by the Service, based on methods which include consideration
of the following: yields or prices of municipal securities of comparable quality,
coupon, maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and
general market conditions. All preceding securities are categorized as
Level 2 in the hierarchy.
When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available,
or are determined not to reflect accurately fair value, such as
when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events
after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is
principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but
before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these
investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures
approved by the Board of Directors. Certain factors may be considered
when fair valuing investments such as: fundamental analytical
data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation
of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are
purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of the issuer
or comparable issuers. These securities are either categorized as Level
2 or 3 depending on the relevant inputs used.



For restricted securities where observable inputs are limited, assumptions
about market activity and risk are used and are categorized as
Level 3 in the hierarchy.

Inverse Floater Securities: The fund participates in secondary inverse
floater structures in which fixed-rate, tax-exempt municipal bonds are
transferred to a trust. The trust subsequently issues two or more variable
rate securities that are collateralized by the cash flows of the fixed-rate,
tax-exempt municipal bonds. One or more of these variable rate securities
pays interest based on a short-term floating rate set by a remarketing
agent at predetermined intervals. A residual interest tax-exempt security
is also created by the trust, which is transferred to the fund, and is paid
interest based on the remaining cash flow of the trust, after payment of
interest on the other securities and various expenses of the trust.

Additional investment related disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference to the annual
and semi-annual reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form N-CSR.
