The following replaces the disclosure under sub-section entitled Investment Policies
and Restrictions Illiquid Securities:
Each Portfolio may invest up to 5% of its total assets in illiquid securities. The term illiquid securities is defined in Rule 2a-7 as securities that cannot be disposed of within seven days in the ordinary course of business at approximately the value ascribed to them by the Portfolio. In determining the liquidity of a Portfolios investments, the Investment Manager may consider various factors, including (i) the unregistered nature of the security; (ii) the frequency of trades and quotations for the security, (iii) the number of dealers willing to purchase or sell the security and the number of other
potential purchasers, (iv) dealer undertakings to make a market in the security, (v) the nature of trading in the security, (vi) the trading and markets for the security, and (vii) the nature of trading in the marketplace, including the time needed to dispose of the security, the method of soliciting offers and the mechanics of transfer.
Investments currently considered by the Portfolios to be illiquid include repurchase agreements not entitling the holder to payment of principal and interest within seven days upon notice. In the absence of market quotations, illiquid investments are valued for purposes of monitoring amortized cost valuation at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Companys Board of Directors (the Board). If through a change in values, net assets, or other circumstances, a Portfolio was in a position where more than 5% of its total assets were invested in illiquid securities, it would seek to
take appropriate steps to protect liquidity, which may include disposing of illiquid assets. If a Portfolio decides to sell illiquid securities, such sale might be at a disadvantageous time or at a disadvantageous price.
For purposes of the 5% limit on illiquid securities, Rule 144A securities will not be considered to be illiquid so long as the Investment Manager determines, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board, that such securities have a readily available market. The Investment Manager will monitor the liquidity of such securities subject to the supervision of the Board.
Municipal lease obligations will not be considered illiquid if they (i) are publicly offered and are rated in one of the two highest rating categories by at least two NRSROs, or if only one NRSRO rates the security, by that NRSRO, or (ii) have a demand feature, which, if exercised, will result in payment of their par value within seven days. Municipal lease obligations not meeting either of these criteria (Restricted Municipal Lease Obligations) will not be considered illiquid for purposes of a Portfolios 5% limitation on illiquid securities, provided the Investment Manager determines that there is a readily
available market for such securities, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board. With respect to Restricted Municipal Lease Obligations, the Investment Manager will consider, pursuant to such procedures, the general credit quality of the Restricted Municipal Lease Obligation, including, in the case of Restricted Municipal Lease Obligations that are unrated, an analysis of such factors as (i) whether the lease can be cancelled; (ii) if applicable, what assurance there is that the assets represented by the lease can be sold; (iii) the strength of the lessees general credit (e.g., its debt, administrative, economic and financial characteristics); (iv) the likelihood that
