BOSTON, Jan. 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Nine John Hancock closed-end funds declared their monthly dividends today as follows: Declaration Date: January 3, 2006 Ex Date: January 11, 2006 Record Date: January 13, 2006 Payable Date: January 31, 2006 Annualized Change from Yield at Previous Ticker Fund Name Amount Market* Month PDF Patriot Premium Dividend Fund I $0.0460 6.85% - PDT Patriot Premium Dividend Fund II $0.0570 6.74% - DIV Patriot Select Dividend Trust $0.0660 6.54% - PGD Patriot Global Dividend Fund $0.0690 6.90% - PPF Patriot Preferred Dividend Fund $0.0720 6.43% - HPI Preferred Income Fund $0.1550 8.74% - HPF Preferred Income Fund II $0.1550 8.79% - HPS Preferred Income Fund III $0.1320 7.91% ($0.016) HTD Tax-Advantaged Dividend Income Fund $0.0967 6.90% - In keeping with management's approach of only paying dividends from income generated by the underlying securities within the portfolio, HPS' dividend has been reduced to reflect current market conditions. Management believes this amendment is necessary at this time to avoid a return of capital. Rising short-term interest rates since June 2004 have increased HPS' leverage costs, reducing the income available to the Fund's common stock shareholders. Although the Fund actively employs hedging techniques, rising rates since the Fund's launch in June 2003 have continued to put added pressure on the dividend. With several higher-yielding preferred securities in the portfolio being refinanced or called, HPS has been forced to reinvest the proceeds in lower yielding securities. The yield represented by the new dividend level still remains attractive relative to other investment-grade income-oriented securities.
