Notes to Schedule of Investments:

 

Portfolio securities and other financial instruments for which market quotations are readily available are stated at market value.  The Fund’s investments are valued daily by an independent pricing service, dealer quotations, or are valued at the last sale price on the exchange that is the primary market for such securities, or the last quoted bid price for those securities for which the over-the-counter market is the primary market or for listed securities in which there were no sales.  The independent pricing service uses information provided by market makers or estimates of market value obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics.  Short-term investments maturing in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, if their original maturity was 60 days or less, or by amortizing their value on the 61st day prior to maturity, if the original term to maturity exceeded 60 days.  Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or if a development/event occurs that may significantly impact the value of the security, may be fair valued pursuant to guidelines established by the Board of Trustees.  The prices used by the Fund to value securities may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold.  The Fund’s net asset value is determined daily at the close of regular trading (normally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange.

 

(a)  Floating Rate Security. Interest rate shown is the rate in effect at August 31, 2004.

(b) 144A security – Security exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, typically to qualified institutional investors.

(c)  Private Placement. Restricted as to resale and does not have a readily available market.

(d) Non-income producing security.

(e)  These securities generally pay interest at rates which are periodically pre-determined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. These base lending rates are generally either the lending rate offered by one or more major European banks, such as the London Inter-Bank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) or the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks, or the certificate of deposit rate.These securities are generally considered to be restricted as the Fund is ordinarily contractually obligated to receive approval from the Agent Bank and/or borrower prior to disposition.

(f)  Illiquid security.

(g) Credit-linked trust certificate.

(h) Remaining maturities of floating rate loans maybe less than the stated maturities shown as a result of contractual or optional payments by the borrower.  Such prepayments cannot be predicted with certainty.

(i)   Fair-valued security.

(j)   All or partial principal amount segregated as initial margin on futures contracts.
