Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk is
the risk that debt securities, and the Fund's net assets, may
decline in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally,
fixed rate debt securities will decrease in value when interest
rates rise and increase in value when interest rates
decline.
Leverage Risk. The Fund uses leverage
through borrowings from notes and a credit facility and may also
use leverage through the issuances of preferred shares. The use of
leverage magnifies both the favorable and unfavorable effects of
price movements in the investments made by the Fund. Insofar as the
Fund employs leverage in its investment operations, the Fund will
be subject to substantial risks of loss.
Credit Risk. Investments rated below
investment grade are commonly referred to as high-yield, high risk
or "junk debt." They are regarded as predominantly speculative with
respect to the issuing company's continuing ability to meet
principal and/ or interest payments.
Illiquidity of Investments Risk. The
investments made by the Fund may be illiquid, and consequently the
Fund may not be able to sell such investments at prices that
reflect the Investment Adviser's assessment of their value or the
amount originally paid for such investments by the Fund.
