NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1.
Portfolio Valuation:
Investments in securities that are listed on the
New York Stock Exchange are valued, except as indicated below, at the last sale
price reflected at the close of the New York Stock Exchange on the business day
as of which such value is being determined. If there has been no sale on such
day, the securities are valued at the mean of the closing bid and asked prices
for the day or, if no asked price is available, at the bid price. Exchange traded options are valued at their
last sale price as of the close of options trading on applicable
exchanges. In the absence of a last
sale, options are valued at the average of the quoted bid and asked prices as
of the close of business.
Over-the-counter options quotations are provided by the respective
counterparty.
Securities not listed on the New York Stock Exchange
but listed on other domestic or foreign securities exchanges are valued in a
similar manner. Securities traded on more than one securities exchange are
valued at the last sale price on the business day as of which such value is being
determined as reflected on the tape at the close of the exchange representing
the principal market for such securities. If after the close of a foreign
market, but prior to the close of business on the day the securities are being
valued, market conditions change significantly, certain foreign securities may
be fair valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board of Directors.
Readily marketable
securities traded in the over-the-counter market, including listed securities
whose primary market is believed by Cohen & Steers Capital Management, Inc.
(the investment manager) to be over-the-counter, are valued at the official
closing prices as reported by sources as the Board of Directors deem
appropriate to reflect their fair market value. If there has been no sale on
such day, the securities are valued at the mean of the closing bid and asked
prices for the day, or if no asked price is available, at the bid price.
However, certain fixed-income securities may be valued on the basis of prices
provided by a pricing service when such prices are believed by the Board of
Directors to reflect the fair market value of such securities.
Securities for which market prices are unavailable,
or securities for which the investment manager determines that the bid and/or
asked price does not reflect market value, will be valued at fair value
pursuant to procedures approved by the Funds Board of Directors. Circumstances
in which market prices may be unavailable include, but are not limited to, when
trading in a security is suspended, the exchange on which the security is
traded is subject to an unscheduled close or disruption or material events
occur after the close of the exchange on which the security is principally
traded. In these circumstances, the Fund determines fair value in a manner that
fairly reflects the market value of the security on the valuation date based on
consideration of any information or factors it deems appropriate. These may
include, but are not limited to, recent transactions in comparable securities,
information relating to the specific security and developments in the markets.
The Funds use of fair value pricing may cause the
net asset value of Fund shares to differ from the net asset value that would be
calculated using market quotations. Fair value pricing involves subjective
judgments and it is possible that the fair value determined for a security may
be materially different than the value that could be realized upon the sale of
that security.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS - (Continued)
Short-term debt securities with a maturity date of
60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value. Investments in open-end mutual funds are
valued at their closing net asset value.
Fair value is defined as the
price that the Fund would receive to sell an investment or pay to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction with an independent buyer in the principal
market, or in the absence of a principal market the most advantageous market
for the investment or liability. The
hierarchy of inputs that are used in determining the fair value of the Funds
investments is summarized below.
·
Level 1
quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
·
Level 2 other
significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments,
interest rates, credit risk, etc.)
·
Level 3
significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds 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.

Note 2. Derivative Instruments:
The following is a summary of the market valuations of the
Funds derivative instruments as of March 31, 2010
Written Option Contracts
|
|
$
|
(565,300
|
)
|
Options:
The Fund may
write put or covered call options on an index or a security with the intention
of earning option premiums. Option premiums may increase the Funds realized
gains and therefore may help increase distributable income. When a Fund writes
(sells) an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is
recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a liability. The amount
of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market
value of the option written. When an option expires, the Fund realizes a gain
on the option to the extent of the premiums received. Premiums received from
writing options which are exercised or closed, are added to or offset against
the proceeds or amount paid on the transaction to determine the realized gain
or loss. If a put option on a security
is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by
the Fund. The Fund, as writer of an
option, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the
underlying index or security. Other risks include the possibility of an
illiquid options market or the inability of the counterparties to fulfill their
obligations under the contract.
