closed-end management investment company, which seeks high current

of investments as a secondary objective, today announced its

2013
Net Investment Income (a) $2,612,001 $3,231,654 Per Share (a) $0.23
$0.28 Net Realized and Change in Unrealized Gain (a) $936,440
$2,913,354 Per Share (a) $0.08 $0.25
(a) The information provided is in accordance with Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), which requires the Fund to
treat amounts accrued by the Fund under swap agreements as net
realized and unrealized gain (loss). However, these amounts are
treated as net income (loss) for federal income tax purposes. By
using GAAP, Net Investment Income for the fiscal quarters ended
March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013 was $45,512 (less than $0.01 per
share) and $57,362 (less than $0.01 per share) lower, respectively,
and Net Realized and Change in Unrealized Gain correspondingly
higher than those figures would have been if swap amounts were
treated as net investment income.
(b) Since the Fund’s net earning rates fluctuate from month to
month, there will be periods when the Fund may over-earn or
under-earn its monthly dividend rate. This fluctuation will have
the effect of adding to or subtracting from the Fund's
undistributed net investment income balance. Fund management
analyzes the current and projected net earning rates prior to
recommending dividend amounts to the Fund's Board of Directors for
declaration. There can be no assurance that the monthly dividend
rate will remain at its current level or that the undistributed net
investment income balance will be sufficient to cover any shortfall
in earnings to meet the current dividend rate. The undistributed
net investment income balance is inclusive of swap income (loss)
and paydown gains in accordance with federal income tax treatment
of these items.
