If the Fund changes this investment policy, it will notify shareholders in writing at least 60 days in advance of the change. The term bond is interpreted broadly by the Adviser to include any instrument or security evidencing a promise to pay some amount rather than evidencing the corporate ownership of equity, unless that equity represents an indirect or derivative interest in one or more bonds. The notional value of any corporate bond derivatives and other synthetic instruments would count towards compliance with the 80% test specified above.
