FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
                 
                     
The Fund follows the FASB ASC Topic 820 hierarchy, under which various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments.
   
The basis of the hierarchy is dependent upon various “inputs” used to determine the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized
   
in the three broad levels listed below:
                 
                     
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.
     
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either
       
directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for
     
similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
       
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing
     
the company's own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or
       
liability , and would be based on the best information available.
               
                     
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example,
   
the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of the markets, and other characteristics
   
particular to the security.  To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market
   
the determination of fair value requires more judgment.  Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest
   
for instruments categorized in level 3.
                 
                     
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the
   
fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to
   
the fair value measurement in its entirety.
                 
                     
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
