objectives.
Shares of closed-end investment companies frequently trade at a discount
to net asset value. The price of the Fund’s
shares is determined by a number of factors, several of which are beyond
the control of the Fund. Therefore, the Fund cannot predict whether its
shares will trade at, below or above net asset value.
