trade in larger positions and more favorable transaction terms; (d) benefits from having fewer closed-end funds offering similar products in the market, including an increased focus by investors on the remaining funds in the market (including the
Combined Fund) and additional research coverage; and (e) benefits from having fewer similar funds in the same fund complex, including a simplified operational model and a reduction in risk of operational, legal and financial errors.

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Non-Diversified Status</U>.&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund is a non-diversified fund. As defined in the 1940 Act, a non-diversified fund may
have a significant part of its investments in a smaller number of issuers than can a diversified fund. Having a larger percentage of assets in a smaller number of issuers makes a non-diversified fund, like the Acquiring Fund, more susceptible to the
risk that one single event or occurrence can have a significant adverse impact upon the Acquiring Fund. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Investment and
Market Discount Risk</U>.&nbsp;An investment in the Acquiring Fund&#146;s Common Shares is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of the entire amount that you invest. As with any stock, the price of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s Common
Shares will fluctuate with market conditions and other factors. Common Shares are designed for long-term investors and the Acquiring Fund should not be treated as a trading vehicle. Shares of closed-end management investment companies frequently
trade at a discount from their NAV. This risk is separate and distinct from the risk that the Acquiring Fund&#146;s NAV could decrease as a result of its investment activities.&nbsp;At any point in time an investment in the Acquiring Fund&#146;s
Common Shares may be worth less than the original amount invested, even after taking into account distributions paid by the Acquiring Fund. This risk may be greater for investors who sell their Common Shares in a relatively short period of time
after completion of the Reorganization. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Municipal Bond Market Risk</U>.&nbsp;Economic exposure to the municipal bond
market involves certain risks.&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund&#146;s economic exposure to municipal bonds includes municipal bonds in the Acquiring Fund&#146;s portfolio and municipal bonds to which the Acquiring Fund is exposed through the ownership of
residual interest municipal tender option bonds (&#147;TOBs Residuals&#148;).&nbsp;The municipal market is one in which dealer firms make markets in bonds on a principal basis using their proprietary capital, and during the recent market turmoil
these firms&#146; capital was severely constrained.&nbsp;As a result, some firms were unwilling to commit their capital to purchase and to serve as a dealer for municipal bonds.&nbsp;Certain municipal bonds may not be registered with the SEC or any
state securities commission and will not be listed on any national securities exchange.&nbsp;The amount of public information available about the municipal bonds to which the Acquiring Fund is economically exposed is generally less than that for
corporate equities or bonds, and the investment performance of the Acquiring Fund may therefore be more dependent on the analytical abilities of the Investment Advisor than would be a stock fund or taxable bond fund.&nbsp;The secondary market for
municipal bonds, particularly the below investment grade bonds to which the Acquiring Fund may be economically exposed, also tends to be less well-developed or liquid than many other securities markets, which may adversely affect the ability to sell
such bonds at attractive prices or at prices approximating those at which the Acquiring Fund currently values them. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In
addition, many state and municipal governments that issue securities are under significant economic and financial stress and may not be able to satisfy their obligations. The ability of municipal issuers to make timely payments of interest and
principal may be diminished during general economic downturns and as governmental cost burdens are reallocated among federal, state and local governments.&nbsp;The taxing power of any governmental entity may be limited by provisions of state
constitutions or laws and an entity&#146;s credit will depend on many factors, including the entity&#146;s tax base, the extent to which the entity relies on federal or state aid, and other factors which are beyond the entity&#146;s control.&nbsp;In

legislatures or referenda could extend the time for payment of principal and/or interest, or impose other constraints on enforcement of such obligations or on the ability of municipalities to
levy taxes.&nbsp;Issuers of municipal bonds might seek protection under the bankruptcy laws.&nbsp;In the event of bankruptcy of such an issuer, holders of municipal bonds could experience delays in collecting principal and interest and such holders
may not, in all circumstances, be able to collect all principal and interest to which they are entitled.&nbsp;To enforce its rights in the event of a default in the payment of interest or repayment of principal, or both, the Acquiring Fund may take
possession of and manage the assets securing the issuer&#146;s obligations on such securities, which may increase the Acquiring Fund&#146;s operating expenses.&nbsp;Any income derived from the Acquiring Fund&#146;s ownership or operation of such

Bonds</U>.&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund ordinarily will invest at least 80% of its total assets in New Jersey Municipal Bonds; therefore, it is more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of New Jersey Municipal Bonds than is a municipal bond
fund that is not concentrated in issuers of New Jersey Municipal Bonds to this degree. Briefly summarized below are important financial concerns relating to the Acquiring Fund&#146;s investments in New Jersey municipal obligations. The information
set forth below and in Appendix B to the Statement of Additional Information is derived from sources that are generally available to investors. This information is intended to give a recent historical description and is not intended to indicate
future or continuing trends in the financial or other positions of the State of New Jersey. It should be noted that the information recorded here primarily is based on the economic and budget forecasts found in certain recent publications issued by
New Jersey. The accuracy and completeness of those publications have not been independently verified. There may be significant changes in circumstances altering the economic and budget predictions since the time of those publications or after the
publication of this Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Acquiring Fund is susceptible to certain factors which could
adversely affect issuers of New Jersey municipal obligations. The ability of issuers to pay interest on, and repay principal of, New Jersey municipal obligations may be affected by: (1) amendments to the Constitution of the State of New Jersey and
other statutes that limit the taxing and spending authority of New Jersey government entities; (2) the general financial and economic profile as well as the political climate of New Jersey, its public authorities and political subdivisions; and (3)
a change in New Jersey laws and regulations or subsequent court decisions that may affect, directly or indirectly, New Jersey municipal obligations. The Fund&#146;s yield and share price are sensitive to these factors as one or more of such factors
could undermine New Jersey issuers&#146; efforts to borrow, inhibit secondary market liquidity and erode credit ratings. Furthermore, it should be noted that the creditworthiness of obligations issued by local New Jersey issuers may be unrelated to
the creditworthiness of obligations issued by New Jersey and that there is no obligation on the part of New Jersey to make payment on such local obligations in the event of default. </FONT></P>

</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Fixed Income Securities Risks</U>.&nbsp;Fixed income securities in which the Acquiring Fund may invest are generally
subject to the following risks: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Interest Rate Risk</I>.&nbsp;The market value of bonds and other fixed-income securities
changes in response to interest rate changes and other factors. Interest rate risk is the risk that prices of bonds and other fixed-income securities will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. The Acquiring Fund may be
subject to a greater risk of rising interest rates due to the current period of historically low interest rates. The magnitude of these fluctuations in the market price of bonds and other fixed-income securities is generally greater for those
securities with longer maturities. Fluctuations in the market price of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s investments will not affect interest income derived from instruments already owned by the Acquiring Fund, but will be reflected in the Acquiring
Fund&#146;s NAV. The Acquiring Fund may lose money if short-term or long-term interest rates rise sharply in a manner not anticipated by the Acquiring Fund&#146;s management. To the extent the Acquiring Fund invests in debt securities that may be
prepaid at the option of the obligor (such as mortgage-related securities), the sensitivity of such securities to changes in interest rates may increase (to the detriment of the Acquiring Fund) when interest rates rise. Moreover, because rates on
certain floating rate debt securities typically reset only periodically, changes in prevailing interest rates (and particularly sudden and significant changes) can be expected to cause some fluctuations in the NAV of the Acquiring Fund to the extent
that it invests in floating rate debt securities. These basic principles of bond prices also apply to U.S. government securities. A security backed by the &#147;full faith and credit&#148; of the U.S. government is guaranteed only as to its stated
interest rate and face value at maturity, not its current market price. Just like other fixed-income securities, government-guaranteed securities will fluctuate in value when interest rates change. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Acquiring Fund&#146;s use of leverage, as described below, will tend to increase the Acquiring Fund&#146;s interest rate
risk.&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund may utilize certain strategies, including taking positions in futures or interest rate swaps, for the purpose of reducing the interest rate sensitivity of fixed income securities held by the Acquiring Fund and
decreasing the Acquiring Fund&#146;s exposure to interest rate risk. The Acquiring Fund is not required to hedge its exposure to interest rate risk and may choose not to do so. In addition, there is no assurance that any attempts by the Acquiring
Fund to reduce interest rate risk will be successful or that any hedges that the Acquiring Fund may establish will perfectly correlate with movements in interest rates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Issuer Risk</I>.&nbsp;The value of fixed income securities may decline for a number of reasons which directly relate to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage, reduced demand
for the issuer&#146;s goods and services, historical and prospective earnings of the issuer and the value of the assets of the issuer. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Credit Risk</I>.&nbsp;Credit risk is the risk that one or more fixed income securities in the Acquiring Fund&#146;s portfolio will decline in price or fail to pay interest or principal when due because
the issuer of the security experiences a decline in its financial status. Credit risk is increased when a portfolio security is downgraded or the perceived creditworthiness of the issuer deteriorates.&nbsp;In addition, to the extent the Acquiring
Fund uses credit derivatives, such use will expose it to additional risk in the event that the bonds underlying the derivatives default.&nbsp;The degree of credit risk depends on the issuer&#146;s financial condition and on the terms of the
securities. </FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Prepayment Risk</I>.&nbsp;During periods of declining interest rates, borrowers may
exercise their option to prepay principal earlier than scheduled. For fixed rate securities, such payments often occur during periods of declining interest rates, forcing the Acquiring Fund to reinvest in lower yielding securities, resulting in a
possible decline in the Acquiring Fund&#146;s income and distributions to shareholders. This is known as prepayment or &#147;call&#148; risk. For premium bonds (bonds acquired at prices that exceed their par or principal value) purchased by the
Acquiring Fund, prepayment risk may be enhanced. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Reinvestment Risk</I>.&nbsp;Reinvestment risk is the risk that income
from the Acquiring Fund&#146;s portfolio will decline if the Acquiring Fund invests the proceeds from matured, traded or called fixed income securities at market interest rates that are below the Acquiring Fund portfolio&#146;s current earnings
rate. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Duration and Maturity Risk</I>.&nbsp;The Investment Advisor may seek to adjust the portfolio&#146;s duration or
maturity based on their assessment of current and projected market conditions and all factors that the Investment Advisor deems relevant.&nbsp;Any decisions as to the targeted duration or maturity of any particular category of investments or of the
Acquiring Fund&#146;s portfolio generally will be made based on all pertinent market factors at any given time.&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund may incur costs in seeking to adjust the portfolio average duration or maturity.&nbsp;There can be no assurance
that the Investment Advisor&#146;s assessment of current and projected market conditions will be correct or that any strategy to adjust the portfolio&#146;s duration or maturity will be successful at any given time.&nbsp;Generally speaking, the
longer the duration of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s portfolio, the more exposure the Acquiring Fund will have to the interest rate risks described above. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Municipal Securities Risks</U>.&nbsp;Municipal securities risks include the ability of the issuer to repay the obligation, the relative lack of information about certain issuers of municipal
securities, and the possibility of future legislative changes which could affect the market for and value of municipal securities. These risks include: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>General Obligation Bonds Risks</I>.&nbsp;The full faith, credit and taxing power of the municipality that issues a general obligation bond secures payment of interest and repayment of principal. Timely
payments depend on the issuer&#146;s credit quality, ability to raise tax revenues and ability to maintain an adequate tax base. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Revenue Bonds Risks</I>.&nbsp;Revenue bonds issued by state or local agencies to finance the development of low-income, multi-family housing involve special risks in addition to those associated with
municipal bonds generally, including that the underlying properties may not generate sufficient income to pay expenses and interest costs.&nbsp;Payments of interest and principal on revenue bonds are made only from the revenues generated by a
particular facility, class of facilities or the proceeds of a special tax or other revenue source. These payments depend on the money earned by the particular facility or class of facilities, or the amount of revenues derived from another
source.&nbsp;Such bonds are generally nonrecourse against the property owner, may be junior to the rights of others with an interest in the properties, may pay interest that changes based in part on the financial performance of the property, may be
prepayable without penalty and may be used to finance the construction of housing developments which, until completed and rented, do not generate income to pay interest.&nbsp;Increases in interest rates payable on senior obligations may make it more
difficult for issuers to meet payment obligations on subordinated bonds. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Private Activity Bonds
Risks</I>.&nbsp;Municipalities and other public authorities issue private activity bonds to finance development of industrial facilities for use by a private enterprise. The private enterprise pays the principal and interest on the bond, and the
issuer does not pledge its full faith, credit and taxing power for repayment. If the private enterprise defaults on its payments, the Acquiring Fund may not receive any income or get its money back from the investment. These bonds may subject
certain investors in the Acquiring Fund to the federal alternative minimum tax. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Moral Obligation Bonds
Risks</I>.&nbsp;Moral obligation bonds are generally issued by special purpose public authorities of a state or municipality. If the issuer is unable to meet its obligations, repayment of these bonds becomes a moral commitment, but not a legal
obligation, of the state or municipality. </FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Municipal Notes Risks</I>.&nbsp;Municipal notes are shorter term municipal debt
obligations. They may provide interim financing in anticipation of, and are secured by, tax collection, bond sales or revenue receipts. If there is a shortfall in the anticipated proceeds, the notes may not be fully repaid and the Acquiring Fund may
lose money. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Municipal Lease Obligations Risks</I>.&nbsp;In a municipal lease obligation, the issuer agrees to make
payments when due on the lease obligation. The issuer will generally appropriate municipal funds for that purpose, but is not obligated to do so. Although the issuer does not pledge its unlimited taxing power for payment of the lease obligation, the
lease obligation is secured by the leased property. However, if the issuer does not fulfill its payment obligation it may be difficult to sell the property and the proceeds of a sale may not cover the Acquiring Fund&#146;s loss. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Municipal leases and certificates of participation involve special risks not normally associated with general obligations or revenue
bonds.&nbsp;Leases and installment purchase or conditional sale contracts (which normally provide for title to the leased asset to pass eventually to the governmental issuer) have evolved as a means for governmental issuers to acquire property and
equipment without meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements for the issuance of debt.&nbsp;The debt issuance limitations are deemed to be inapplicable because of the inclusion in many leases or contracts of &#147;nonappropriation&#148;
clauses that relieve the governmental issuer of any obligation to make future payments under the lease or contract unless money is appropriated for such purpose by the appropriate legislative body on a yearly or other periodic basis.&nbsp;In
addition, such leases or contracts may be subject to the temporary abatement of payments in the event that the governmental issuer is prevented from maintaining occupancy of the lease premises or utilizing the leased equipment.&nbsp;Although the
obligations may be secured by the leased equipment or facilities, the disposition of the property in the event of nonappropriation or foreclosure might prove difficult, time consuming and costly, and may result in a delay in recovering or the
failure to fully recover ownership of the assets. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Certificates of participation, which represent interests in unmanaged pools
of municipal leases or installment contracts, involve the same risks as the underlying municipal leases.&nbsp;In addition, the Acquiring Fund may be dependent upon the municipal authority issuing the certificate of participation to exercise remedies
with respect to the underlying securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Certificates of participation also entail a risk of default or bankruptcy, both of
the issuer of the municipal lease and also the municipal agency issuing the certificate of participation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Tax-Exempt
Status Risk</I>.&nbsp;In making investments, the Acquiring Fund and the Investment Advisor will rely on the opinion of issuers&#146; bond counsel and, in the case of derivative securities, sponsors&#146; counsel, on the tax-exempt status of interest
on municipal obligations and payments under tax-exempt derivative securities. Neither the Acquiring Fund nor&nbsp;the Investment Advisor will independently review the bases for those tax opinions. If any of those tax opinions are ultimately
determined to be incorrect or if events occur after the security is acquired that impact the security&#146;s tax-exempt&nbsp;status, the Acquiring Fund and its shareholders could be subject to substantial tax liabilities. An assertion by the
Internal Revenue Service (&#147;IRS&#148;) that a portfolio security is not exempt from U.S. federal income tax (contrary to indications from the issuer) could affect the Acquiring Fund&#146;s and shareholder&#146;s income tax liability for the
current or past years and could create liability for information reporting penalties. In addition, an IRS assertion of taxability may impair the liquidity and the fair market value of the securities. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Taxability Risk</U>.&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund intends to minimize the payment of taxable income to shareholders by investing in
tax-exempt or municipal securities in reliance at the time of purchase on an opinion of bond counsel to the issuer that the interest paid on those securities will be excludable from gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Such securities,
however, may be determined to pay, or have paid, taxable income subsequent to the Acquiring Fund&#146;s acquisition of the securities. In that event, the IRS may demand that the Acquiring Fund pay U.S. federal income taxes on the affected interest
income, and, if the Acquiring Fund agrees to do so, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s yield could be adversely affected. In addition, the treatment of dividends </FONT></P>

previously paid or to be paid by the Acquiring Fund as &#147;exempt interest dividends&#148; could be adversely affected, subjecting the Acquiring Fund&#146;s shareholders to increased U.S.
federal income tax liabilities. In addition, future laws, regulations, rulings or court decisions may cause interest on municipal securities to be subject, directly or indirectly, to U.S. federal income taxation or interest on state municipal
securities to be subject to state or local income taxation, or the value of state municipal securities to be subject to state or local intangible personal property tax, or may otherwise prevent the Acquiring Fund from realizing the full current
benefit of the tax-exempt status of such securities. Any such change could also affect the market price of such securities, and thus the value of an investment in the Acquiring Fund. </FONT></P>

Therefore, if the market value of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s portfolio declines, leverage will result in a greater decrease in net asset value to the holders of Common Shares than if the Acquiring Fund were not leveraged. This greater net asset value
decrease will also tend to cause a greater decline in the market price for the Common Shares.&nbsp;There can be no assurance that the Acquiring Fund will reduce leverage in the future or that any reduction, if undertaken, will benefit the holders of
Common Shares. Changes in the future direction of interest rates are very difficult to predict accurately. If the Acquiring Fund were to reduce leverage based on a prediction about future changes to interest rates, and that prediction turned out to
be incorrect, the reduction in leverage would likely operate to reduce the income and/or total returns to holders of Common Shares relative to the circumstance where the Acquiring Fund had not reduced leverage. The Acquiring Fund may decide that
this risk outweighs the likelihood of achieving the desired reduction to volatility in income and share price if the prediction were to turn out to be correct, and determine not to reduce leverage. </FONT></P>

the segregated or earmarked assets may be invested in liquid securities, they may not be used for other operational purposes. Consequently, the use of leverage may limit the Acquiring Fund&#146;s flexibility and may require that the Acquiring Fund

made on time and that the principal will be repaid when the security matures.&nbsp;Insurance is expected to protect the Acquiring Fund against losses caused by a municipal security issuer&#146;s failure to make interest and principal payments.
However, insurance does not protect the Acquiring Fund or its shareholders against losses caused by declines in a municipal security&#146;s value. Also, the Acquiring Fund cannot be certain that any insurance company will make the payments it
guarantees. Certain significant providers of insurance for municipal securities have recently incurred significant losses as a result of exposure to sub-prime mortgages and other lower credit quality investments that have experienced recent defaults
or otherwise suffered extreme credit deterioration. As a result, such losses have reduced the insurers&#146; capital and called into question their continued ability to perform their obligations under such insurance if they are called upon to do so
in the future. While an insured municipal security will typically be deemed to have the rating of its insurer, if the insurer of a municipal security suffers a downgrade in its credit rating or the market discounts the value of the insurance
provided by the insurer, the rating of the underlying municipal security will be more relevant and the value of the municipal security would more closely, if not entirely, reflect such rating. The Acquiring Fund may lose money on its investment if
the insurance company does not make payments it guarantees. If a municipal security&#146;s insurer fails to fulfill its obligations or loses its credit rating, the value of the security could drop. </FONT></P>

Because the Acquiring Fund may purchase securities that are not rated by any rating organization, the Investment Advisor may, after assessing their credit quality, internally assign ratings to certain of those securities in categories similar to
those of rating organizations.&nbsp;Some unrated securities may not have an active trading market or may be difficult to value, which means the Acquiring Fund might have difficulty selling them promptly at an acceptable price. To the extent that the
Acquiring Fund invests in unrated securities, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s ability to achieve its investment objective will be more dependent on the Investment Advisor&#146;s credit analysis than would be the case when the Acquiring Fund invests in
rated securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Zero Coupon Securities Risk</U>.&nbsp;Zero coupon securities are securities that are sold at a discount
to par value and do not pay interest during the life of the security. The discount approximates the total amount of interest the security will accrue and compound over the period until maturity at a rate of interest reflecting the market rate of the
security at the time of issuance. Upon maturity, the holder of a zero coupon security is entitled to receive the par value of the security. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">While interest payments are not made on zero coupon securities, holders of such securities are deemed to have received income (&#147;phantom income&#148;) annually, notwithstanding that cash may not be
received currently. The effect of owning instruments that do not make current interest payments is that a fixed yield is earned not only on the original investment but also, in effect, on all discount accretion during the life of the obligations.
This implicit reinvestment of earnings at a fixed rate eliminates the risk of being unable to invest distributions at a rate as high as the implicit yield on the zero coupon bond, but at the same time eliminates the holder&#146;s ability to reinvest
at higher rates in the future. For this reason, some of these securities may be subject to substantially greater price fluctuations during periods of changing market interest rates than are comparable securities that pay interest currently. Longer
term zero coupon bonds are more exposed to interest rate risk than shorter term zero coupon bonds. These investments benefit the issuer by mitigating its need for cash to meet debt service, but also require a higher rate of return to attract
investors who are willing to defer receipt of cash. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Acquiring Fund accrues income with respect to these securities for
U.S. federal income tax and accounting purposes prior to the receipt of cash payments. Zero coupon securities may be subject to greater fluctuation in value and less liquidity in the event of adverse market conditions than comparably rated
securities that pay cash interest at regular intervals. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Further, to maintain its qualification for pass-through treatment
under the Federal tax laws, the Acquiring Fund is required to distribute income to its shareholders and, consequently, may have to dispose of other, more liquid portfolio securities under disadvantageous circumstances or may have to leverage itself
by borrowing in order to generate the cash to satisfy these distributions. The required distributions may result in an increase in the Acquiring Fund&#146;s exposure to zero coupon securities. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition to the above-described risks, there are certain other risks related to investing in zero coupon securities. During a period
of severe market conditions, the market for such securities may become even less liquid. In addition, as these securities do not pay cash interest, a Fund&#146;s investment exposure to these securities and their risks, including credit risk, will
increase during the time these securities are held in the Acquiring Fund&#146;s portfolio. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Variable Rate Demand

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Indexed and Inverse Securities Risk</U>.&nbsp;Investments in inverse floaters, residual
interest tender option bonds and similar instruments expose the Acquiring Fund to the same risks as investments in fixed income securities and derivatives, as well as other risks, including those associated with leverage and increased volatility. An
investment in these securities typically will involve greater risk than an investment in a fixed rate security. Distributions on inverse floaters, residual interest tender option bonds and similar instruments will typically bear an inverse
relationship to short term interest rates and typically will be reduced or, potentially, eliminated as interest rates rise. Inverse floaters, residual interest tender option bonds and similar instruments will underperform the market for fixed rate
securities in a rising interest rate environment. Inverse floaters may be considered to be leveraged to the extent that their interest rates vary by a magnitude that exceeds the magnitude of the change in a reference rate of interest (typically a
short term interest rate). The leverage inherent in inverse floaters is associated with greater volatility in their market values. Investments in inverse floaters, residual interest tender option bonds and similar instruments that have fixed income
securities underlying them will expose the Acquiring Fund to the risks associated with those fixed income securities and the values of those investments may be especially sensitive to changes in prepayment rates on the underlying fixed income
securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions Risk</U>. When-issued and delayed delivery transactions occur
when securities are purchased or sold by the Acquiring Fund with payment and delivery taking place in the future to secure an advantageous yield or price. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis may expose the Acquiring Fund
to counterparty risk of default as well as the risk that securities may experience fluctuations in value prior to their actual delivery. The Acquiring Fund will not accrue income with respect to a when-issued or delayed delivery security prior to
its stated delivery date. Purchasing securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis can involve the additional risk that the price or yield available in the market when the delivery takes place may not be as favorable as that obtained in the
transaction itself. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Swaps</U>.&nbsp;Swap agreements are types of derivatives.&nbsp;In order to seek to hedge the value of
the Acquiring Fund&#146;s portfolio, to hedge against increases in the Acquiring Fund&#146;s cost associated with the interest payments on its outstanding borrowings or to seek to increase the Acquiring Fund&#146;s return, the Acquiring Fund may
enter into interest rate or credit default swap transactions.&nbsp;In interest rate swap transactions, there is a risk that yields will move in the direction opposite of the direction anticipated by the Acquiring Fund, which would cause the
Acquiring Fund to make payments to its counterparty in the transaction that could adversely affect Fund performance.&nbsp;In addition to the risks applicable to swaps generally, credit default swap transactions involve special risks because they are
difficult to value, are highly susceptible to liquidity and credit risk, and generally pay a return to the party that has paid the premium only in the event of an actual default by the issuer of the underlying obligation (as opposed to a credit
downgrade or other indication of financial difficulty).&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund is not required to enter into interest rate or credit default swap transactions for hedging purposes or to enhance its return and may choose not to do so. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Repurchase Agreements Risk</U>. Repurchase agreements typically involve the acquisition by the Acquiring Fund of fixed income
securities from a selling financial institution such as a bank, savings and loan association or broker-dealer. The agreement provides that the Acquiring Fund will sell the securities back to the institution at a fixed time in the future. The
Acquiring Fund does not bear the risk of a decline in the value of the underlying security unless the seller defaults under its repurchase obligation. In the event of the bankruptcy or other default of a seller of a repurchase agreement, the
Acquiring Fund could experience both delays in liquidating the underlying securities and losses, including possible decline in the value of the underlying security during the period in which the Acquiring Fund seeks to enforce its rights thereto;
possible lack of access to income on the underlying security during this period; and expenses of enforcing its rights. The value of the collateral underlying the repurchase agreement will be at least equal to the repurchase price, including any
accrued interest earned on the repurchase agreement. In the event of a default or bankruptcy by a selling financial institution, the Acquiring Fund generally will seek to liquidate such collateral. However, the exercise of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s
right to liquidate such collateral could involve certain costs or delays and, to the extent that proceeds from any sale upon a default of the obligation to repurchase were less than the repurchase price, the Acquiring Fund could suffer a loss.

dividend distributions.&nbsp;The financial markets in general have in recent years experienced periods of extreme secondary market supply and demand imbalance, resulting in a loss of liquidity during which market prices were suddenly and

registration expenses and considerable time may pass before the Acquiring Fund is permitted to sell a security under an effective registration statement. If adverse market conditions develop during this period, the Acquiring Fund might obtain a less
favorable price than the price that prevailed when the Acquiring Fund decided to sell. The Acquiring Fund may be unable to sell restricted and other illiquid securities at opportune times or prices. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Strategic Transactions Risk</U>. The Acquiring Fund may engage in various derivative transactions for duration management and other
risk management purposes (&#147;Strategic Transactions&#148;).&nbsp;The risks associated with Strategic Transactions include (i)&nbsp;the imperfect correlation between the value of such instruments and the underlying assets, (ii)&nbsp;the possible
default of the counterparty to the transaction, (iii)&nbsp;illiquidity of the derivative instruments, and (iv)&nbsp;high volatility losses caused by unanticipated market movements, which are potentially unlimited. Although both over-the-counter and
exchange-traded derivatives markets may experience the lack of liquidity, over-the-counter non-standardized derivative transactions are generally less liquid than exchange-traded instruments. Furthermore, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s ability to
successfully use Strategic Transactions depends on the Investment Advisor&#146;s ability to predict pertinent securities prices, interest rates, currency exchange rates and other economic factors, which cannot be assured. The use of Strategic
Transactions may result in losses greater than if they had not been used, may require the Acquiring Fund to sell or purchase portfolio securities at inopportune times or for prices other than current market values, may limit the amount of
appreciation the Acquiring Fund can realize on an investment or may cause the Acquiring Fund to hold a security that it might otherwise sell. Additionally, segregated liquid assets, amounts paid by a Fund as premiums and cash or other assets held in
margin accounts with respect to Strategic Transactions are not otherwise available to the Acquiring Fund for investment purposes. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Derivatives Risk</U>.&nbsp;Derivatives are financial contracts or instruments whose value depends on, or is derived from, the value of an underlying asset, reference rate or index (or relationship
between two indices).&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund&#146;s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Derivatives are
subject to a number of risks described elsewhere in this section, such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk and management risk. They also involve the risk of mispricing or improper valuation. </FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Derivatives also involve the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not
correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. In this regard, the Acquiring Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective, in part, by investing in derivatives positions that are designed to closely track the performance (or inverse
performance) of an index on a daily basis. However, the overall investment strategies of the Acquiring Fund are not designed or expected to produce returns which replicate the performance (or inverse performance) of the particular index, and the
degree of variation could be substantial, particularly over longer periods. There are a number of factors which may prevent the Acquiring Fund, or the derivatives or other strategies used by the Acquiring Fund, from achieving desired correlation (or
inverse correlation) with an index, such as the impact of fees, expenses and transaction costs, the timing of pricing, and disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for derivative instruments or securities in which the Acquiring Fund invests.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Acquiring Fund&#146;s investments in a derivative instrument could lose more than the principal amount invested. Also,
suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances and there can be no assurance that the Acquiring Fund will engage in these transactions to reduce exposure to other risks when that would be beneficial. Although the
Investment Advisor seeks to use derivatives to further the Acquiring Fund&#146;s investment objective, there is no assurance that the use of derivatives will achieve this result. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Certain derivative transactions may give rise to a form of leverage. Leverage associated with derivative transactions may cause the
Acquiring Fund to liquidate portfolio positions when it may not be advantageous to do so to satisfy its obligations or to meet earmarking or segregation requirements, pursuant to applicable SEC rules and regulations, or may cause the Acquiring Fund
to be more volatile than if the Acquiring Fund had not been leveraged. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Counterparty Risk</U>.&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund will
be subject to credit risk with respect to the counterparties to the derivative contracts purchased by the Acquiring Fund. Because derivative transactions in which the Acquiring Fund may engage may involve instruments that are not traded on an
exchange but are instead traded between counterparties based on contractual relationships, the Acquiring Fund is subject to the risk that a counterparty will not perform its obligations under the related contracts. If a counterparty becomes bankrupt
or otherwise fails to perform its obligations due to financial difficulties, the Acquiring Fund may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery in bankruptcy or other reorganization proceedings. The Acquiring Fund may obtain only a
limited recovery, or may obtain no recovery, in such circumstances. Although the Acquiring Fund intends to enter into transactions only with counterparties that the Investment Advisor believes to be creditworthy, there can be no assurance that, as a
result, a counterparty will not default and that the Acquiring Fund will not sustain a loss on a transaction. In the event of the counterparty&#146;s bankruptcy or insolvency, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s collateral may be subject to the conflicting
claims of the counterparty&#146;s creditors, and the Acquiring Fund may be exposed to the risk of a court treating the Acquiring Fund as a general unsecured creditor of the counterparty, rather than as the owner of the collateral.&nbsp;There can be
no assurance that a clearing organization, or its members, will satisfy its obligations to the Acquiring Fund. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition,
the Acquiring Fund is subject to the risk that issuers of the instruments in which it invests and trades may default on their obligations under those instruments, and that certain events may occur that have an immediate and significant adverse
effect on the value of those instruments. There can be no assurance that an issuer of an instrument in which the Acquiring Fund invests will not default, or that an event that has an immediate and significant adverse effect on the value of an
instrument will not occur, and that the Acquiring Fund will not sustain a loss on a transaction as a result. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Legal, Tax
and Regulatory Risks</U>. Legal, tax and regulatory changes could occur that may materially adversely affect the Acquiring Fund.&nbsp;For example, the regulatory and tax environment for derivative instruments in which the Acquiring Fund may
participate is evolving, and changes in the regulation or taxation of derivative instruments may materially adversely affect the value of derivative instruments held by the Acquiring Fund and the ability of the Acquiring Fund to pursue its
investment strategies. </FONT></P>

United States credit rating, deterioration of the housing market, the failure of major financial institutions and the resulting United States federal government actions led in the recent past, and may lead in the future, to worsening general
economic conditions, which did, and could, materially and adversely impact the broader financial and credit markets and reduce the availability of debt and equity capital for the market as a whole and financial firms in particular.&nbsp;These events
may increase the volatility of the value of securities owned by the Acquiring Fund and/or result in sudden and significant valuation increases or decreases in its portfolio.&nbsp;These events also may make it more difficult for the Acquiring Fund to

the European debt crisis has progressed the possibility of one or more Eurozone countries exiting the EMU, or even the collapse of the Euro as a common currency, has arisen, creating significant volatility at times in currency and financial markets

the value and risk profile of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s portfolio. Any partial or complete dissolution of the EMU could have significant adverse effects on currency and financial markets, and on the values of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s portfolio
investments. If one or more EMU countries were to stop using the Euro as its primary currency, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s investments in such countries may be redenominated into a different or newly adopted currency. As a result, the value of those
investments could decline significantly and unpredictably. In addition, securities or other investments that are redenominated may be subject to foreign currency risk, liquidity risk and valuation risk to a greater extent than similar investments
currently denominated in Euros. To the extent a currency used for redenomination purposes is not specified in respect of certain EMU-related investments, or should the Euro cease to be used entirely, the currency in which such investments are
denominated may be unclear, making such investments particularly difficult to value or dispose of. The Acquiring Fund may incur additional expenses to the extent it is required to seek judicial or other clarification of the denomination or value of
such securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Market Disruption and Geopolitical Risk</U>. The aftermath of the war in Iraq, instability in

fluctuates based on changes in a company&#146;s financial condition and overall market and economic conditions.&nbsp;An adverse event, such as an unfavorable earnings report, may depress the value of a particular common stock held by the Acquiring
Fund. Also, the price of common stocks is sensitive to general movements in the stock market and a drop in the stock market may depress the price of common stocks to which the Acquiring Fund has exposure. Common stock prices fluctuate for several
reasons, including changes in investors&#146; perceptions of the financial condition of an issuer or the general condition of the relevant stock market, or when political or economic events affecting the issuers occur. </FONT></P>

short-term tax-exempt or taxable fixed income securities. In doing so, the Acquiring Fund may succeed in avoiding losses but may otherwise fail to achieve its investment objective. Further, the value of short-term fixed income securities may be
affected by changing interest rates and by changes in credit ratings of the investments. If the Acquiring Fund holds cash uninvested it will be subject to the credit risk of the depository institution holding the cash. </FONT></P>

subject to management risk because it is an actively managed investment portfolio.&nbsp;The Investment Advisor and the individual portfolio managers will apply investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the Acquiring
Fund, but there can be no guarantee that these will produce the desired results.&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund may be subject to a relatively high level of management risk because the Acquiring Fund may invest in derivative instruments, which may be
highly specialized instruments that require investment techniques and risk analyses different from those associated with equities and bonds. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

failure which causes disruptions to these information technology systems could materially limit the Investment Advisor&#146;s ability to adequately assess and adjust investments, formulate strategies and provide adequate risk control.&nbsp;Any such
information technology-related difficulty could harm the performance of the Acquiring Fund.&nbsp;Further, failure of the back-office functions of the Investment Advisor to process trades in a timely fashion could prejudice the investment performance
of the Acquiring Fund. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Cyber Security Risk</U>.&nbsp;With the increased use of technologies such as the Internet to
conduct business, the Acquiring Fund is susceptible to operational, information security and related risks. In general, cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events.&nbsp;Cyber attacks include, but are not limited to,
gaining unauthorized access to digital systems (e.g., through &#147;hacking&#148; or malicious software coding) for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data, or causing operational disruption. Cyber attacks may
also be carried out in a manner that does not require gaining unauthorized access, such as causing denial-of-service attacks on websites (i.e., efforts to make network services unavailable to intended users). Cyber security failures or breaches by
the Acquiring Fund&#146;s investment adviser and other service providers (including, but not limited to, fund accountants, custodians, transfer agents and administrators), and the issuers of securities in which the Acquiring Fund invests, have the
ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, interference with the Acquiring Fund&#146;s ability to calculate its net asset value, impediments to trading, the inability of Acquiring Fund
shareholders to transact business, violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, reimbursement or other compensation costs, or additional compliance costs. In addition, substantial costs may be
incurred in order to prevent any cyber incidents in the future. While the Acquiring Fund has established business continuity plans in the event of, and risk management systems to prevent, such cyber attacks, there are inherent limitations in such
plans and systems including the possibility that certain risks have not been identified. Furthermore, the Acquiring Fund cannot control the cyber security plans and systems put in place by service providers to the Acquiring Fund and issuers in which
the Acquiring Fund invests. The Acquiring Fund and its shareholders could be negatively impacted as a result. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><U>Misconduct
of Employees and of Service Providers</U>. Misconduct or misrepresentations by employees of the Investment Advisor or the Acquiring Fund&#146;s service providers could cause significant losses to the Acquiring Fund. Employee misconduct may include
binding the Acquiring Fund to transactions that exceed authorized limits or present unacceptable risks and unauthorized trading activities, concealing unsuccessful trading activities (which, in any case, may result in unknown and unmanaged risks or
losses) or making misrepresentations regarding any of the foregoing.&nbsp;Losses could also result from actions by the Acquiring Fund&#146;s service providers, including, without limitation, failing to recognize trades and misappropriating
assets.&nbsp;In addition, employees and service providers may improperly use or disclose confidential information, which could result in litigation or serious financial harm, including limiting the Acquiring Fund&#146;s business prospects or future
marketing activities. Despite the Investment Advisor&#146;s due diligence efforts, misconduct and intentional misrepresentations may be undetected or not fully comprehended, thereby potentially undermining the Investment Advisor&#146;s due diligence
efforts. As a result, no assurances can be given that the due diligence performed by the Investment Advisor will identify or prevent any such misconduct. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

other transactional expenses that are borne by the Acquiring Fund.&nbsp;High portfolio turnover may result in an increased realization of net short-term capital gains by the Acquiring Fund which, when distributed to common and preferred

benefit by the narrowing of the discount or widening of the premium.&nbsp;The Board of the Target Fund also noted that To the extent the Target Fund Common Shares are trading at a narrower discount (or wider premium) than the Acquiring Fund at the

immediately prior to the closing of the Reorganization. The NAV of the Target Fund and the Acquiring Fund immediately prior to the closing of the Reorganization will be reduced by the costs of the Reorganization borne by each Fund, if any.&nbsp;The
NAV of Target Fund Common Shares will not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization. Fractional Acquiring Fund Common Shares will generally not be issued to Target Fund common shareholders in connection with the Reorganization, and Target Fund

the purpose of determining the NAV of a Common Share of each Fund, the value of the securities held by such Fund plus any cash or other assets (including interest accrued but not yet received) minus all liabilities (including accrued expenses) of
such Fund is divided by the total number of Common Shares of such Fund outstanding at such time. Daily expenses, including the fees payable to the Investment Advisor, will accrue at the Valuation Time. </FONT></P>

federal income tax and New Jersey personal income taxes. The investment objective of the Acquiring Fund is a fundamental policy that may not be changed without a vote of a majority of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s outstanding voting securities.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Acquiring Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in a portfolio of municipal obligations,
the interest on which, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, is exempt from federal income tax and New Jersey personal income taxes (&#147;New Jersey Municipal Bonds&#148;).&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund invests substantially all (at least 80%) of
its assets in New Jersey Municipal Bonds, except at times when the Investment Advisor considers that New Jersey Municipal Bonds of sufficient quantity and quality are unavailable at suitable prices.&nbsp;To the extent that the Investment Advisor
considers that suitable New Jersey Municipal Bonds are not available for investment, the Acquiring Fund may purchase municipal obligations exempt from federal income taxes but not New Jersey personal income taxes (&#147;Municipal

Non-Municipal Tax-Exempt Securities may include securities issued by other investment companies that invest in New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds, to the extent such investments are permitted by the 1940 Act. Other Non-Municipal
Tax-Exempt Securities could include trust certificates or other instruments evidencing interests in one or more long-term New Jersey Municipal Bonds or Municipal Bonds. Certain Non-Municipal Tax-Exempt Securities may be characterized as derivative

the four highest rating categories of S&amp;P, Moody&#146;s or Fitch or, if unrated, are considered to be of comparable quality by the Investment Advisor. In the case of long-term debt, the investment grade rating categories are AAA through BBB for
S&amp;P and Fitch and Aaa through Baa for Moody&#146;s. In the case of short-term notes, the investment grade rating categories are SP-1+ through SP-2 for S&amp;P, MIG 1 through MIG 3 for Moody&#146;s and F-1+ through F-3 for Fitch. In the case of
tax-exempt commercial paper, the investment grade rating categories are A-1+ through A-3 for S&amp;P, P-1 through P-3 for Moody&#146;s and F-1+ through F-3 for Fitch. Obligations ranked in the lowest investment grade rating category (BBB, SP-2 and
A-3 for S&amp;P; Baa, MIG 3 and P-3 for Moody&#146;s; and BBB and F-3 for Fitch), while considered &#147;investment grade,&#148; may have certain speculative characteristics. There may be sub-categories or gradations indicating relative standing
within the rating categories set forth above. See Appendix C&#151;&#147;Ratings of Investments.&#148;&nbsp;In assessing the quality of New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds with respect to the foregoing requirements, the Investment Advisor
takes into account the portfolio insurance as well as the nature of any letters of credit or similar credit enhancement to which particular New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds are entitled and the creditworthiness of the insurance company
or financial institution that provided such insurance or credit enhancements. Insurance is expected to protect the Acquiring Fund against losses caused by a bond issuer&#146;s failure to make interest or principal payments. However, insurance does
not protect the Acquiring Fund or its shareholders against losses caused by declines in a bond&#146;s market value. Also, the Acquiring Fund cannot be certain that any insurance company does not make these payments. If a bond&#146;s insurer fails to
fulfill its obligations or loses its credit rating, the value of the bond could drop. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Acquiring Fund may invest in
variable rate demand obligations (&#147;VRDOs&#148;) and VRDOs in the form of participation interests (&#147;Participating VRDOs&#148;) in variable rate tax-exempt obligations held by a financial institution, typically a commercial bank. The VRDOs
in which the Acquiring Fund may invest are tax-exempt obligations, in the opinion of counsel to the issuer, that contain a floating or variable interest rate adjustment formula and a right of demand on the part of the holder thereof to receive
payment of the unpaid principal balance plus accrued interest on a short notice period not to exceed seven days. There is, however, the possibility that because of default or insolvency the demand feature of VRDOs may not be honored. The interest
rates are adjustable at intervals (ranging from daily to up to one year) to some prevailing market rate for similar investments, such adjustment formula being calculated to maintain the market value of the VRDOs, at approximately the par value of
the VRDOs on the adjustment date. The adjustments typically are based upon SIFMA or some other appropriate interest rate adjustment index.&nbsp;VRDOs that contain an unconditional right of demand to receive payment of the unpaid principal balance
plus accrued interest on a notice period exceeding seven days may be deemed to be illiquid securities.&nbsp;Participating VRDOs provide the Acquiring Fund with a specified undivided interest (up to 100%) in the underlying obligation and the right to
demand payment of the unpaid principal balance plus accrued interest on the Participating VRDOs from the financial institution on a specified number of days&#146; notice, not to exceed seven days. </FONT></P>

treatment afforded RICs under the federal tax laws. In order to qualify as a RIC, the Acquiring Fund must, among other things, satisfy certain requirements relating to the sources of its income, diversification of its assets, and distribution of its
income to its shareholders. First, the Acquiring Fund must derive at least 90% of its annual gross income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to securities loans, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock or securities or foreign
currencies, or other income (including but not limited to gains from options, futures and forward contracts) derived with respect to its business of investing in such stock, securities or currencies, or net income derived from interests in
&#147;qualified publicly traded partnerships&#148; (as defined in the Code) (the &#147;90% gross income test&#148;). Second, the Acquiring Fund must diversify its holdings so that, at the close of each quarter of its taxable year, (i)&nbsp;at least
50% of the value of its total assets consists of cash, cash items, U.S. Government securities, securities of other RICs and other securities, with such other securities limited in respect of any one issuer to an amount not greater in value than 5%
of the value of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s total assets and to not more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer, and (ii)&nbsp;not more than 25% of the value of the total assets is invested in the securities (other than U.S.
Government securities and securities of other RICs) of any one issuer, any two or more issuers&nbsp;controlled by the Acquiring Fund and engaged in the same, similar or related trades or businesses, or any one or more &#147;qualified publicly traded
partnerships.&#148; To the extent that the Acquiring Fund assumes large&nbsp;positions in the securities of a small number of issuers, its yield may fluctuate to a greater extent than that of a diversified company as a result of changes in the

</B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds include debt obligations issued to obtain funds for various public

private activity bonds (&#147;PABs&#148;) are issued by or on behalf of public authorities to finance various privately operated facilities, including, among other things, airports, public ports, mass commuting facilities, multi-family housing
projects, as well as facilities for water supply, gas, electricity, sewage or solid waste disposal. </FONT></P>

if the interest paid thereon is exempt from federal income tax and are New Jersey Municipal Bonds if the interest thereon is exempt from federal income tax and New Jersey personal income taxes, even though such bonds may be industrial development
bonds or PABs as discussed below. Also, for purposes of this Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, Non-Municipal Tax-Exempt Securities as discussed above will be considered New Jersey Municipal Bonds or Municipal Bonds. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The two principal classifications of New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds are &#147;general obligation&#148; bonds and
&#147;revenue&#148; bonds, which latter category includes PABs and, for bonds issued on or before August&nbsp;15, 1986, industrial development bonds or &#147;IDBs.&#148; New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds typically are issued to finance
public projects, such as roads or public buildings, to pay general operating expenses or to refinance outstanding debt.&nbsp;New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds may also be issued for private activities, such as housing, medical and
educational facility construction, or for privately owned industrial development and pollution control projects. General obligation bonds are backed by the full faith and credit, or taxing authority, of the issuer and may be repaid from any revenue
source. Revenue bonds may be repaid only from the revenues of a specific facility or source. New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds may be issued on a long term basis to provide permanent financing. The repayment of such debt may be secured
generally by a pledge of the full faith and credit taxing power of the issuer, a limited or special tax, or any other revenue source, including project revenues, which may include tolls, fees and other user charges, lease payments and mortgage
payments. New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds may also be issued to finance projects on a short-term interim basis, anticipating repayment with the proceeds of the later issuance of long-term debt. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>General Obligation Bonds</I>.&nbsp;General obligation bonds (other than those of the State of New Jersey which has limited taxing
powers) are typically secured by the issuer&#146;s pledge of faith, credit and taxing power for the repayment of principal and the payment of interest. The taxing power of any governmental entity may be limited, however, by provisions of its state
constitution or laws, and an entity&#146;s creditworthiness will depend on many factors, including potential erosion of its tax base due to population declines, natural disasters, declines in the state&#146;s industrial base or inability to attract
new industries, economic limits on the ability to tax without eroding the tax base, state legislative proposals or voter initiatives to limit ad valorem real property taxes and the extent to which the entity relies on federal or state aid, access to
capital markets or other factors beyond the state&#146;s or entity&#146;s control. Accordingly, the capacity of the issuer of a general obligation bond as to the timely payment of interest and the repayment of principal when due is affected by the
issuer&#146;s maintenance of its tax base. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Revenue Bonds</I>.&nbsp;Revenue or special obligation bonds are typically
payable only from the revenues derived from a particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds of a special excise tax or other specific revenue source such as from the user of the facility being financed. Accordingly,
the timely payment of interest and the repayment of principal in accordance with the terms of the revenue or special obligation bond is a function of the economic viability of such facility or such revenue source. Revenue bonds issued by state or
local agencies to finance the development of low-income, multi-family housing involve special risks in addition to those associated with municipal securities generally, including that the underlying properties may not generate sufficient income to
pay expenses and interest costs. Such bonds are generally non-recourse against the property owner, may be junior to the rights of others with an interest in the properties, may pay interest that changes based in part on the financial performance of
the property, may be prepayable without penalty and may be used to finance the construction of housing developments which, until completed and rented, do not generate income to pay interest. Increases in interest rates payable on senior obligations
may make it more difficult for issuers to meet payment obligations on subordinated bonds. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Moral Obligation
Bonds</I>.&nbsp;New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds may also include &#147;moral obligation&#148; bonds, which are normally issued by special purpose public authorities. If an issuer of moral obligation bonds is unable to meet its
obligations, the repayment of such bonds becomes a moral commitment but not a legal obligation of the state or municipality in question. </FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Municipal Notes</I>.&nbsp;Municipal notes are shorter term municipal debt obligations.
They may provide interim financing in anticipation of tax collection, bond sales or revenue receipts. If there is a shortfall in the anticipated proceeds, repayment on the note may be delayed or the note may not be fully repaid, and the Acquiring
Fund may lose money. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Municipal Commercial Paper</I>. Municipal commercial paper is generally unsecured and issued to meet
short-term financing needs. The lack of security presents some risk of loss to the Acquiring Fund since, in the event of an issuer&#146;s bankruptcy, unsecured creditors are repaid only after the secured creditors out of the assets, if any, that
remain. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Private Activity Bonds</I>.&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund may purchase New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds
classified as PABs. Interest received on certain PABs is treated as an item of &#147;tax preference&#148; for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax and may impact the overall tax liability of certain investors in the Acquiring Fund. There
is no limitation on the percentage of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s assets that may be invested in New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds the interest on which is treated as an item of &#147;tax preference&#148; for purposes of the federal
alternative minimum tax.&nbsp;PABs, formerly referred to as industrial development bonds, are issued by or on behalf of public authorities to obtain funds to provide privately operated housing facilities, airport, mass transit or port facilities,
sewage disposal, solid waste disposal or hazardous waste treatment or disposal facilities and certain local facilities for water supply, gas or electricity. Other types of PABs, the proceeds of which are used for the construction, equipment, repair
or improvement of privately operated industrial or commercial facilities, may constitute municipal securities, although the federal tax laws may place substantial limitations on the size of such issues. Such bonds are secured primarily by revenues
derived from loan repayments or lease payments due from the entity which may or may not be guaranteed by a parent company or otherwise secured. PABs generally are not secured by a pledge of the taxing power of the issuer of such bonds. Therefore, an
investor should be aware that repayment of such bonds generally depends on the revenues of a private entity and be aware of the risks that such an investment may entail. Continued ability of an entity to generate sufficient revenues for the payment
of principal and interest on such bonds will be affected by many factors including the size of the entity, capital structure, demand for its products or services, competition, general economic conditions, government regulation and the entity&#146;s
dependence on revenues for the operation of the particular facility being financed. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Municipal Lease
Obligations</I>.&nbsp;Also included within the general category of Municipal Bonds are certificates of participation (&#147;COPs&#148;) issued by government authorities or entities to finance the acquisition or construction of equipment, land and/or
facilities. The COPs represent participations in a lease, an installment purchase contract or a conditional sales contract (hereinafter collectively called &#147;lease obligations&#148;) relating to such equipment, land or facilities. Municipal
leases, like other municipal debt obligations, are subject to the risk of non-payment. Although lease obligations do not constitute general obligations of the issuer for which the issuer&#146;s unlimited taxing power is pledged, a lease obligation
is frequently backed by the issuer&#146;s covenant to budget for, appropriate and make the payments due under the lease obligation. However, certain lease obligations contain &#147;non-appropriation&#148; clauses, which provide that the issuer has
no obligation to make lease or installment purchase payments in future years unless money is appropriated for such purpose on a yearly basis. Although &#147;non-appropriation&#148; lease obligations are secured by the leased property, disposition of
the property in the event of foreclosure might prove difficult. These securities represent a type of financing that has not yet developed the depth of marketability associated with more conventional securities. Certain investments in lease
obligations may be illiquid. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The ability of issuers of municipal leases to make timely lease payments may be adversely
impacted in general economic downturns and as relative governmental cost burdens are allocated and reallocated among federal, state and local governmental units. Such non-payment would result in a reduction of income to the Acquiring Fund, and could
result in a reduction in the value of the municipal lease experiencing non-payment and a potential decrease in the net asset value of the Acquiring Fund. Issuers of municipal securities might seek protection under the bankruptcy laws. In the event
of bankruptcy of such an issuer, the Acquiring Fund could </FONT></P>

experience delays and limitations with respect to the collection of principal and interest on such municipal leases and the Acquiring Fund may not, in all circumstances, be able to collect all
principal and interest to which it is entitled. To enforce its rights in the event of a default in lease payments, the Acquiring Fund might take possession of and manage the assets securing the issuer&#146;s obligations on such securities, which may
increase the Acquiring Fund&#146;s operating expenses and adversely affect the net asset value of the Acquiring Fund. When the lease contains a non-appropriation clause, however, the failure to pay would not be a default and the Acquiring Fund would
not have the right to take possession of the assets. Any income derived from the Acquiring Fund&#146;s ownership or operation of such assets may not be tax-exempt. In addition, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s intention to qualify as a &#147;regulated
investment company&#148; under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, may limit the extent to which the Acquiring Fund may exercise its rights by taking possession of such assets, because as a regulated investment company the Acquiring Fund is subject
to certain limitations on its investments and on the nature of its income. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Zero Coupon Bonds</I>.&nbsp;Municipal Bonds may
include zero-coupon bonds. Zero coupon bonds are securities that are sold at a discount to par value and do not pay interest during the life of the security. The discount approximates the total amount of interest the security will accrue and
compound over the period until maturity at a rate of interest reflecting the market rate of the security at the time of issuance. Upon maturity, the holder of a zero coupon bond is entitled to receive the par value of the security. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">While interest payments are not made on such securities, holders of such securities are deemed to have received income (&#147;phantom
income&#148;) annually, notwithstanding that cash may not be received currently. The effect of owning instruments that do not make current interest payments is that a fixed yield is earned not only on the original investment but also, in effect, on
all discount accretion during the life of the obligations. This implicit reinvestment of earnings at a fixed rate eliminates the risk of being unable to invest distributions at a rate as high as the implicit yield on the zero coupon bond, but at the
same time eliminates the holder&#146;s ability to reinvest at higher rates in the future. For this reason, some of these securities may be subject to substantially greater price fluctuations during periods of changing market interest rates than are
comparable securities that pay interest currently. Longer term zero coupon bonds are more exposed to interest rate risk than shorter term zero coupon bonds. These investments benefit the issuer by mitigating its need for cash to meet debt service,
but also require a higher rate of return to attract investors who are willing to defer receipt of cash. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Acquiring Fund
accrues income with respect to these securities for U.S. federal income tax and accounting purposes prior to the receipt of cash payments.&nbsp;Zero coupon bonds may be subject to greater fluctuation in value and less liquidity in the event of
adverse market conditions than comparably rated securities that pay cash interest at regular intervals. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Further, to maintain
its qualification for pass-through treatment under the Federal tax laws, the Acquiring Fund is required to distribute income to its shareholders and, consequently, may have to dispose of other, more liquid portfolio securities under disadvantageous
circumstances or may have to leverage itself by borrowing in order to generate the cash to satisfy these distributions. The required distributions may result in an increase in the Acquiring Fund&#146;s exposure to zero coupon bonds. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition to the above-described risks, there are certain other risks related to investing in zero coupon bonds. During a period of
severe market conditions, the market for such securities may become even less liquid. In addition, as these securities do not pay cash interest, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s investment exposure to these securities and their risks, including credit
risk, will increase during the time these securities are held in the Acquiring Fund&#146;s portfolio. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Pre-Refunded
Municipal Securities</I>.&nbsp;The principal of, and interest on, pre-refunded municipal securities are no longer paid from the original revenue source for the securities. Instead, the source of such payments is typically an escrow fund consisting

of municipal securities use this advance refunding technique to obtain more favorable terms with respect to securities that are not yet subject to call or redemption by the issuer. For example,
advance refunding enables an issuer to refinance debt at lower market interest rates, restructure debt to improve cash flow or eliminate restrictive covenants in the indenture or other governing instrument for the pre-refunded municipal securities.
However, except for a change in the revenue source from which principal and interest payments are made, the pre-refunded municipal securities remain outstanding on their original terms until they mature or are redeemed by the issuer. </FONT></P>

residential, commercial and industrial growth and redevelopment. The bond financing methods such as tax increment finance, tax assessment, special services district and Mello-Roos bonds (a type of municipal security established by the Mello-Roos
Community Facilities District Act of 1982), are generally payable solely from taxes or other revenues attributable to the specific projects financed by the bonds without recourse to the credit or taxing power of related or overlapping
municipalities. They often are exposed to real estate development-related risks and can have more taxpayer concentration risk than general tax-supported bonds, such as general obligation bonds. Further, the fees, special taxes, or tax allocations
and other revenues that are established to secure such financings are generally limited as to the rate or amount that may be levied or assessed and are not subject to increase pursuant to rate covenants or municipal or corporate guarantees. The
bonds could default if development failed to progress as anticipated or if larger taxpayers failed to pay the assessments, fees and taxes as provided in the financing plans of the districts. </FONT></P>

and of the municipal bond market, the size of a particular offering, the financial condition of the issuer, the maturity of the obligation and the rating of the issue. The ability of the Acquiring Fund to achieve its investment objective is also
dependent on the continuing ability of the issuers of the securities in which the Acquiring Fund invests to meet their obligations for the payment of interest and principal when due. There are variations in the risks involved in holding Municipal
Bonds, both within a particular classification and between classifications, depending on numerous factors. Furthermore, the rights of owners of Municipal Bonds and the obligations of the issuer of such Municipal Bonds may be subject to applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws and court decisions affecting the rights of creditors generally and to general equitable principles, which may limit the enforcement of certain remedies. </FONT></P>

Acquiring Fund may purchase or sell New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds on a delayed delivery basis or on a when-issued basis at fixed purchase or sale terms.&nbsp;When such transactions are negotiated, the price, which is generally
expressed in yield terms, is fixed at the time the commitment is made, but delivery and payment for the securities take place at a later date. When-issued securities may be sold prior to the settlement date. If the Acquiring Fund disposes of the
right to acquire a when-issued security prior to its acquisition, it might incur a gain or loss. At the time the Acquiring Fund enters into a transaction on a when-issued basis, it will designate on its books and records cash or liquid assets with a

Acquiring Fund&#146;s purchase price. The Acquiring Fund may bear the risk of a decline in the value of the security in these transactions and may not benefit from an appreciation in the value of the security during the commitment period.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If deemed advisable as a matter of investment strategy, the Acquiring Fund may dispose of or renegotiate a commitment after
it has been entered into, and may sell securities it has committed to purchase before those securities are delivered to the Acquiring Fund on the settlement date. In these cases the Acquiring Fund may realize a taxable capital gain or loss.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">When the Acquiring Fund engages in when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment transactions, it relies on the other

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The market value of the securities underlying a commitment to purchase securities, and any subsequent fluctuations in their market value,
is taken into account when determining the market value of the Acquiring Fund starting on the day the Acquiring Fund agrees to purchase the securities. The Acquiring Fund does not earn interest on the securities it has committed to purchase until
they are paid for and delivered on the settlement date. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Indexed and Inverse Floating Obligations</I>.&nbsp;The Acquiring
Fund may invest in New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds yielding a return based on a particular index of value or interest rates. For example, the Acquiring Fund may invest in New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds that pay
interest based on an index of Municipal Bond interest rates. The principal amount payable upon maturity of certain New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds also may be based on the value of an index. To the extent the Acquiring Fund invests in
these types of Municipal Bonds, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s return on such New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds will be subject to risk with respect to the value of the particular index. Interest and principal payable on the Municipal Bonds
may also be based on relative changes among particular indices. Also, the Acquiring Fund may invest in so-called &#147;inverse floating obligations&#148; or &#147;residual interest bonds&#148; on which the interest rates typically vary inversely
with a short-term floating rate (which may be reset periodically by a dutch auction, a remarketing agent, or by reference to a short-term tax-exempt interest rate index). The Acquiring Fund may purchase synthetically-created inverse floating
obligations evidenced by custodial or trust receipts. Generally, income on inverse floating obligations will decrease when short-term rates increase, and will increase when short-term rates decrease. Such securities have the effect of providing a
degree of investment leverage, since they may increase or decrease in value in response to changes, as an illustration, in market interest rates at a rate that is a multiple (typically two) of the rate at which fixed-rate, long-term, tax-exempt
securities increase or decrease in response to such changes. As a result, the market values of such securities generally will be more volatile than the market values of fixed-rate tax-exempt securities. To seek to limit the volatility of these
securities, the Acquiring Fund may purchase inverse floating obligations with shorter-term maturities or limitations on the extent to which the interest rate may vary. Certain investments in such obligations may be illiquid. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Call Rights</I>.&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund may purchase a New Jersey Municipal Bond or Municipal Bond issuer&#146;s rights to call all
or a portion of such New Jersey Municipal Bond or Municipal Bond for mandatory tender for purchase (a &#147;Call Right&#148;). A holder of a Call Right may exercise such right to require a mandatory tender for the purchase of related New Jersey
Municipal Bonds or Municipal Bonds, subject to certain conditions. A Call Right that is not exercised prior to the maturity of the related New Jersey Municipal Bond or Municipal Bond will expire without value. The economic effect of holding both the
Call Right and the related New Jersey Municipal Bond or Municipal Bond is identical to holding a New Jersey Municipal Bond or Municipal Bond as a non-callable security. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

security at a specified price on a future date agreed upon by the parties. The agreed-upon repurchase price determines the yield during the Acquiring Fund&#146;s holding period.&nbsp;The risk to the Acquiring Fund is limited to the ability of the
issuer to pay the agreed-upon repurchase price on the delivery date; however, although the value of the underlying collateral at the time the transaction is entered into always equals or exceeds the agreed-upon repurchase price, if the value of the
collateral declines there is a risk of loss of both principal and interest. In the event of default, the collateral may be sold but the Acquiring Fund might incur a loss if the value of the collateral declines, and might incur disposition costs or

general, the concept of leveraging is based on the premise that the financing cost of leverage, which will be based on short-term interest rates, will normally be lower than the income earned by the Acquiring Fund on its longer-term portfolio
investments purchased with the proceeds from leverage. To the extent that the total assets of the Acquiring Fund (including the assets obtained from leverage) are invested in higher-yielding portfolio investments, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s common
shareholders can benefit from incremental net income. The interest earned on securities purchased with the proceeds from leverage is paid to common shareholders in the form of dividends, and the value of these portfolio holdings is reflected in the
per share NAV. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">To illustrate these concepts, assume the Acquiring Fund&#146;s Common Shares capitalization is $100 million

costs on the $30 million of proceeds obtained from leverage are based on the lower short-term interest rates. At the same time, the securities purchased by the Acquiring Fund with the proceeds
from leverage earn income based on longer-term interest rates. In this case, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s financing cost of leverage is significantly lower than the income earned on the Acquiring Fund&#146;s longer-term investments acquired from
leverage proceeds, and therefore the holders of Common Shares are the beneficiaries of the incremental net income. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">However,
in order to benefit common shareholders, the return on assets purchased with leverage proceeds must exceed the ongoing costs associated with the leverage. If interest and other costs of leverage exceed the Acquiring Fund&#146;s return on assets
purchased with leverage proceeds, income to common shareholders will be lower than if the Acquiring Fund had not used leverage. Furthermore, the value of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s portfolio investments generally varies inversely with the direction
of long-term interest rates, although other factors can influence the value of portfolio investments. In contrast, the value of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s obligations under its leverage arrangement generally does not fluctuate in relation to interest
rates. As a result, changes in interest rates can influence the Acquiring Fund&#146;s NAVs positively or negatively. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Changes
in the future direction of interest rates are very difficult to predict accurately, and there is no assurance that the Acquiring Fund&#146;s intended leveraging strategy will be successful. </FONT></P>

portfolios without leverage. In a declining market, leverage is likely to cause a greater decline in the net asset value and market price of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s Common Shares than if the Acquiring Fund were not leveraged. In addition, the
Acquiring Fund may be required to sell portfolio securities at inopportune times or at distressed values in order to comply with regulatory requirements applicable to the use of leverage or as required by the terms of leverage instruments, which may
cause the Acquiring Fund to incur losses. The use of leverage may limit the Acquiring Fund&#146;s ability to invest in certain types of securities or use certain types of hedging strategies. The Acquiring Fund will incur expenses in connection with
the use of leverage, all of which are borne by common shareholders and may reduce income to the Common Shares. During periods in which the Acquiring Fund is using leverage, the fees paid to the Investment Advisor for advisory services will be higher
than if the Acquiring Fund did not use leverage, because the fees paid will be calculated on the basis of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s total managed assets, which includes the proceeds from leverage. The Acquiring Fund&#146;s leveraging strategy may
not be successful. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">There can be no assurance the Combined Fund will be able to continue to use leverage through the use of

able to enter into tender option bond transactions or use other forms of leverage during such periods. There can be no assurance that the Combined Fund&#146;s leverage strategy will be successful. The use of leverage can create risks. See &#147;Risk

value of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s outstanding preferred shares exceeds 50% of its assets (including the proceeds from the issuance) less liabilities other than borrowings (i.e., the value of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s assets must be at least 200% of
the liquidation value of its outstanding preferred shares). In addition, the Acquiring Fund would not be permitted to declare any cash dividend or other distribution on its Common Shares unless, at the time of such declaration, the value of the

capital gain or other taxable income is allocated to preferred shares, instead of solely tax-exempt income, the Acquiring Fund will likely have to pay higher total dividends to preferred shareholders or make special payments to preferred
shareholders to compensate them for the increased tax liability. This would reduce the total amount of dividends paid to the holders of Common Shares, but would increase the portion of the dividend that is tax-exempt. If the increase in dividend
payments or the special payments to preferred shareholders are not entirely offset by a reduction in the tax liability of, and an increase in the tax-exempt dividends received by, the holders of Common Shares, the advantage of the Acquiring

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As diagramed above, a TOBs Trust typically receives municipal securities from one or more funds&nbsp;through the sponsor and then issues TOBs Floaters to third party investors and TOBs Residuals to the
funds. A fund is paid the cash (less transaction expenses, which are borne by the fund and therefore common shareholders of the fund indirectly) received by the TOBs Trust from the sale of the TOBs Floaters and typically will invest the cash in
additional municipal securities or other investments permitted by its investment policies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">TOBs Floaters may have first
priority on the cash flow from the securities held by the TOBs Trust and are enhanced with a liquidity support arrangement from a third party liquidity provider which allows holders to tender their position at par (plus accrued interest). A fund, in
addition to receiving cash from the sale of the TOBs Floaters, also receives the TOBs Residual. The TOBs Residuals provides the fund with the right (1)&nbsp;to cause the holders of the TOBs Floaters to tender their notes to the TOBs Trust at par
(plus accrued interest), and (2)&nbsp;to acquire the municipal securities from the TOBs Trust. In addition, all voting rights and decisions to be made with respect to any other rights relating to the securities held in the TOBs Trust are passed
through to the fund, as the holder of the TOBs Residual. This transaction, in effect, creates exposure for the fund to the entire return of the securities in the TOBs Trust, with a net cash investment by the fund that is less than the value of the
securities in the TOBs Trust. This multiplies the positive or negative impact of the securities&#146; return within the fund (thereby creating leverage). The leverage within a TOBs Trust depends on the value of the securities deposited in the TOBs
Trust relative to the value of the TOBs Floaters it issues. In the diagram above, the TOBs Trust receives municipal securities worth $60, issues TOBs Floaters worth $45 and the fund receives a TOBs Residual worth $15. The leverage ratio in the TOBs
Trust described in the example is thus 3:1. Increasing the value of the TOBs Floaters issued would increase the leverage ratio of the TOBs Trust. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

the securities in the TOBs Trust, or the inability of the sponsor to remarket any TOBs Floaters tendered to it by holders of the TOBs Floaters. In such an event, the TOBs Floaters would be redeemed by the TOBs Trust at par (plus accrued interest)
out of the proceeds from a sale of the securities in the TOBs Trust. If this happens, the fund would be entitled to the assets of the TOBs Trust, if any, that remain after the TOBs Floaters have been redeemed at par (plus accrued interest). If there
are insufficient proceeds from the sale of these securities to redeem all of the TOBs Floaters at par (plus accrued interest), the party that would bear the losses on those securities would depend upon whether the fund holds a non-recourse TOBs
Residual or a recourse TOBs Residual. If the fund holds a non-recourse TOBs Residual, the liquidity provider or holders of the TOBs Floaters would bear the losses on those securities and there would generally be no recourse to the fund&#146;s
assets. If the fund holds a recourse TOBs Residual, the fund (and, indirectly, holders of the fund&#146;s common shares) would typically bear the losses on those securities. In particular, if the fund holds a recourse TOBs Residual, it will
typically have entered into an agreement pursuant to which the fund would be required to pay to the liquidity provider the difference between the purchase price of any TOBs Floaters put to the liquidity provider by holders of the TOBs Floaters and
the proceeds realized from the remarketing of those TOBs Floaters or the sale of the assets in the TOBs Trust (the &#147;Liquidation Shortfall&#148;). As a result, the fund investing in a recourse TOB Residual will bear the risk of loss with respect
to any Liquidation Shortfall. If multiple funds participate in any such TOB Issuer, these losses will be shared ratably, in proportion to their participation.&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund may invest in both non-recourse and recourse TOBs Residuals to

security is recorded by the fund on an accrual basis. Interest expense incurred on the TOBs Floaters and other expense related to remarketing, administration and trustee services to a TOBs Trust are reported as expenses of a fund. In addition, under
accounting rules, loans made to a TOBs Trust sponsored by a fund may be presented as loans of the fund in the fund&#146;s financial statements even if there is no recourse to the fund&#146;s assets. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">For TOBs Floaters, generally, the interest rate earned will be based upon the market rates for municipal securities with maturities or
remarketing provisions that are comparable in duration to the periodic interval of the tender option, which may vary from weekly, to monthly, to extended periods of one year or multiple years. Since the option feature has a shorter term than the
final maturity or first call date of the underlying securities deposited in the TOBs Trust, the holder of the TOBs Floaters relies upon the terms of the agreement with the financial institution furnishing the option as well as the credit strength of
that institution. As further assurance of liquidity, the terms of the TOBs Trust provide for a liquidation of the municipal securities deposited in the TOBs Trust and the application of the proceeds to pay off the TOBs Floaters. The risk associated
with TOBs Floaters, however, may be increased in the current market environment as a result of recent downgrades to the credit ratings, and thus the perceived reliability and creditworthiness, of many major financial institutions, some of which
sponsor and/or provide liquidity support to TOBs Trusts. This in turn may reduce the desirability of TOBs Floaters as investments, which could impair the viability or availability of TOBs Trusts and reduce, or eliminate completely, the availability
of TOBs Residuals as a leveraging option for the Acquiring Fund. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The use of TOBs Residuals will require the Acquiring Fund to
earmark or segregate liquid assets in an amount equal to any TOBs Floaters, plus any accrued but unpaid interest due on the TOBs Floaters, issued by TOBs Trusts sponsored by, or on behalf of, the Acquiring Fund that are not owned by the Acquiring
Fund. The Acquiring Fund reserves the right to modify its asset segregation policies in the future to the extent that such changes are in accordance with applicable regulations or interpretations. Future regulatory requirements or SEC guidance may
necessitate more onerous contractual or regulatory requirements, which may increase the costs or reduce the degree of potential economic benefits of TOBs transactions or limit the Acquiring Fund&#146;s ability to enter into or manage TOBs

for offering materials with respect to the interests in the TOBs Trusts, assuming certain tax reporting and compliance-related responsibilities on behalf of the TOBs Trust, and indemnifying the trustee and other service providers to the TOBs

tender option bond structure, a TOBs Residual holder would deposit municipal securities into the TOBs Trust in exchange for TOBs Residuals, the TOBs Trust would then issue and sell TOBs Floaters to third party investors, and the proceeds of the sale
of the TOBs Floaters would be distributed to such TOBs Residual holder.&nbsp;Tendered TOBs Floaters would continue to be supported by a remarketing agent and a liquidity facility.&nbsp;However, the remarketing agent is not anticipated to purchase
tendered TOBs Floaters for its own account in the event of a failed remarketing, which may increase the likelihood that a TOBs Trust will be required to terminate the TOBs Trust or liquidate assets of the TOBs Trust to purchase the tendered TOBs
Floaters.&nbsp;In the event of a failed remarketing of TOBs Floaters, it is anticipated that the tender option bond documents may provide for the liquidity provider, at its option, advancing a loan to the TOBs Trust the proceeds of which would be

because of the leveraged nature of the Common Shares, hedging transactions will result in a larger impact on the net asset value of the Common Shares than would be the case if the Common Shares were not leveraged. Furthermore, the Acquiring Fund may

profit from any price increase in the underlying security above the option exercise price. In addition, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s ability to sell the underlying security will be limited while the option is in effect unless the Acquiring Fund enters

transactions.&nbsp;Certain OTC options and assets used to cover OTC options written by the Acquiring Fund are considered to be illiquid. The illiquidity of such options or assets may prevent a successful sale of such options or assets, result in a
delay of sale, or reduce the amount of proceeds that otherwise might be realized. </FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Risk Factors in Financial Futures Contracts and Options Thereon</I>.&nbsp;Use of futures
transactions involves the risk of imperfect correlation in movements in the price of financial futures contracts and movements in the price of the security that is the subject of the hedge. If the price of the financial futures contract moves more
or less than the price of the security that is the subject of the hedge, the Acquiring Fund will experience a gain or loss that will not be completely offset by movements in the price of such security. There is a risk of imperfect correlation where
the securities underlying financial futures contracts have different maturities, ratings, geographic compositions or other characteristics different from those of the security being hedged. In addition, the correlation may be affected by additions
to or deletions from the index that serves as a basis for a financial futures contract. Finally, in the case of financial futures contracts on U.S. Government securities and options on such financial futures contracts, the anticipated correlation of
price movements between the U.S. Government securities underlying the futures or options and New Jersey Municipal Bonds and Municipal Bonds may be adversely affected by economic, political, legislative or other developments which have a disparate
impact on the respective markets for such securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (&#147;CFTC&#148;) subjects
advisers to registered investment companies to regulation by the CFTC if a fund that is advised by the investment adviser either (i)&nbsp;invests, directly or indirectly, more than a prescribed level of its liquidation value in CFTC-regulated
futures, options and swaps (&#147;CFTC Derivatives&#148;), or (ii)&nbsp;markets itself as providing investment exposure to such instruments. To the extent the Acquiring Fund uses CFTC Derivatives, it intends to do so below such prescribed levels and
will not market itself as a &#147;commodity pool&#148; or a vehicle for trading such instruments. Accordingly, the Investment Advisor has claimed an exclusion from the definition of the term &#147;commodity pool operator&#148; under the Commodity
Exchange Act (&#147;CEA&#148;) pursuant to Rule 4.5 under the CEA. The Investment Advisor is not, therefore, subject to registration or regulation as a &#147;commodity pool operator&#148; under the CEA in respect of the Acquiring Fund. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">When the Acquiring Fund purchases a financial futures contract, or writes a put option or purchases a call option thereon, it will
segregate with a custodian or designate on its books and records an amount of cash or liquid assets, so that the amount so segregated or designated, plus the amount of initial and variation margin held in the account of its broker equals the market
value of the financial futures contract, thereby ensuring that the use of such financial futures contract is unleveraged. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Although certain risks are involved in options and futures transactions, the Investment Advisor believes that, because the Acquiring Fund
will engage in options and futures transactions only for hedging purposes, the options and futures portfolio strategies of the Acquiring Fund will not subject the Acquiring Fund to the risks associated with speculation in options and futures
transactions. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The volume of trading in the exchange markets with respect to New Jersey Municipal Bonds or Municipal Bond
options may be limited, and it is impossible to predict the amount of trading interest that may exist in such options. In addition, there can be no assurance that viable exchange markets will continue to be available. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Acquiring Fund intends to enter into options and futures transactions, on an exchange or in the over-the-counter market, only if
there appears to be a liquid secondary market for such options or futures. There can be no assurance, however, that a liquid secondary market will exist at any specific time. Thus, it may not be possible to close an option or futures transaction.
The inability to close options and futures positions also could have an adverse impact on the Acquiring Fund&#146;s ability to hedge effectively its portfolio. There is also the risk of loss by the Acquiring Fund of margin deposits or collateral in
the event of bankruptcy of a broker with which the Acquiring Fund has an open position in an option or financial futures contract. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The liquidity of a secondary market in a financial futures contract may be adversely affected by &#147;daily price fluctuation limits&#148; established by commodity exchanges that limit the amount of
fluctuation in a financial futures contract price during a single trading day. Once the daily limit has been reached in the contract, no trades may be entered into at a price beyond the limit, thus preventing the liquidation of open futures
positions. Prices have in the past reached or exceeded the daily limit on a number of consecutive trading days. </FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If it is not possible to close a financial futures position entered into by the Acquiring
Fund, the Acquiring Fund would continue to be required to make daily cash payments of variation margin in the event of adverse price movements. In such a situation, if the Acquiring Fund has insufficient cash, it may have to sell portfolio
securities to meet daily variation margin requirements at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The successful use
of these transactions also depends on the ability of the Investment Advisor to forecast correctly the direction and extent of interest rate movements within a given time frame. To the extent these rates remain stable during the period in which a
financial futures contract is held by the Acquiring Fund or move in a direction opposite to that anticipated, the Acquiring Fund may realize a loss on the hedging transaction that is not fully or partially offset by an increase in the value of
portfolio securities. As a result, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s total return for such period may be less than if it had not engaged in the hedging transaction. Furthermore, the Acquiring Fund will only engage in hedging transactions from time to time
and may not necessarily be engaging in hedging transactions when movements in interest rates occur. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Investment Restrictions

Certain information reflects the financial results for a single Common Share of the Acquiring Fund. The total returns in the table represent the rate an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the Acquiring Fund (assuming reinvestment
of all dividends and/or distributions, if applicable). The information for the periods shown has been audited by&nbsp;Deloitte &amp; Touch LLP, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s independent registered public accounting firm. Financial statements for the
fiscal year ended July&nbsp;31, 2014 and the Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm thereon appear in the Acquiring Fund&#146;s Annual Report for the fiscal year ended July&nbsp;31, 2014, which is available upon request.

preferred shares outstanding, to holders of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s Common Shares, except as described below in &#147;&#151;Undistributed Net Investment Income.&#148; The Acquiring Fund&#146;s net investment income consists of all interest income
accrued on portfolio assets less all expenses of the Acquiring Fund. The Acquiring Fund is required to allocate net capital gains and other taxable income, if any, received by the Acquiring Fund among its common shareholders on a pro rata basis in

the movement of interest rates and general market conditions. These factors, among others, may result in the Combined Fund&#146;s level of net investment income being different from the level of net investment income for any of the individual Funds

Fund may from time to time distribute less than the entire amount earned in a particular period. The income would be available to supplement future distributions. As a result, the distributions paid by the Acquiring Fund for any particular month may
be more or less than the amount actually earned by the Acquiring Fund during that month.&nbsp;The amount of undistributed income paid by the Acquiring Fund for any particular month may vary from time to time.&nbsp;The portion of a Combined

original purchase price of the outstanding preferred shares plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not earned or declared on a cumulative basis). In addition to the requirements of the 1940 Act, the Acquiring Fund may be required
to comply with other asset coverage requirements as a condition of the Acquiring Fund obtaining a rating of its preferred shares from a nationally recognized rating service. These requirements may include an asset coverage test more stringent than
that under the 1940 Act. This limitation on the Acquiring Fund&#146;s ability to make distributions on its Common Shares could in certain circumstances impair the ability of the Acquiring Fund to maintain its qualification for taxation as a
regulated investment company under the Code. The Acquiring Fund intends, however, to the extent possible, to purchase or redeem preferred shares from time to time to maintain compliance with such asset coverage requirements and may pay special
dividends to the holders of the preferred shares in certain circumstances in connection with any such impairment of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s status as a regulated investment company under the Code. </FONT></P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The tax treatment and characterization of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s distributions may vary significantly from time to time because of the varied nature of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s investments. The
Acquiring Fund will indicate the proportion of its capital gains distributions that constitute long-term and short-term gains annually. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The final tax characterization of distributions is determined after the end of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s fiscal year and is reported to shareholders on Form 1099. Distributions will be characterized as
tax-exempt interest income, ordinary income, capital gains and/or return of capital. The Acquiring Fund&#146;s net investment income or net realized capital gains may not be sufficient to support the level of distributions paid. To the extent that
distributions exceed the Acquiring Fund&#146;s current and accumulated earnings and profits in the current fiscal year, the excess may be treated as a return of capital. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Acquiring
Fund&#146;s investment performance and should not be confused with &#145;yield&#146; or &#145;income.&#146; A return of capital is a return of a portion of an investor&#146;s original investment.&nbsp;A return of capital is generally not taxable,
but it reduces a shareholder&#146;s tax basis in his or her shares, thus reducing any loss or increasing any gain on a subsequent disposition by the shareholder of his or her shares. It is possible that a substantial portion of the distributions
paid during a calendar year may ultimately be classified as return of capital for income tax purposes when the final determination of the source and character of the distributions is made. </FONT></P>

Although capital loss carryforwards from prior years can offset realized net capital gains, capital loss carryforwards will offset current earnings and profits only if they were generated in the
Acquiring Fund&#146;s 2012 taxable year or thereafter. If distributions in any tax year are less than the Acquiring Fund&#146;s current earnings and profits but are in excess of net investment income and net realized capital gains (which would
occur, for example, if the Acquiring Fund utilizes pre-2012 capital loss carryforwards to offset capital gains in that tax year), such excess is not treated as a non-taxable return of capital but rather may be taxable to shareholders at ordinary
income rates even though it may economically represent a return of capital. Under certain circumstances, such taxable excess distributions could be significant. The Funds currently do not have any pre-2012 capital loss carryforwards. </FONT></P>

Acquiring Fund&#146;s dividend reinvestment plan (the &#147;Reinvestment Plan&#148;), in additional Acquiring Fund Shares. Shareholders who elect not to participate in the Reinvestment Plan will receive all dividends in cash paid by check mailed
directly to the shareholder of record (or, if the Common Shares are held in street or other nominee name, then to such nominee) by Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as dividend disbursing agent. You may elect not to participate in the Reinvestment
Plan and to receive all dividends in cash by contacting Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as Reinvestment Plan Agent, at the address provided on the following page. Participation in the Reinvestment Plan is completely voluntary and may be
terminated or resumed at any time without penalty by written notice if received and processed by the Reinvestment Plan Agent prior to the dividend record date. Additionally, the Reinvestment Plan Agent seeks to process notices received after the
record date but prior to the payable date and such notices often will become effective by the payable date. Where late notices are not processed by the applicable payable date, such termination or resumption will be effective with respect to any
subsequently declared dividend. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Some brokers may automatically elect to receive cash on your behalf and may re-invest that

common shareholder&#146;s Common Shares are registered. Whenever the Acquiring Fund declares a dividend payable in cash, non-participants in the Reinvestment Plan will receive cash and participants in the Reinvestment Plan will receive the
equivalent in Common Shares. The Common Shares will be acquired by the Reinvestment Plan Agent for the participants&#146; accounts, depending upon the circumstances described below, either (i)&nbsp;through receipt of additional unissued but
authorized Common Shares from the Acquiring Fund (&#147;newly issued Common Shares&#148;) or (ii)&nbsp;by purchase of outstanding Common Shares on the open market (&#147;open-market purchases&#148;). If, on the dividend payment date, the NAV per

Common Shares acquired in open-market purchases. It is contemplated that the Acquiring Fund will pay monthly income dividends. If, before the Reinvestment Plan Agent has completed its open-market
purchases, the market price per Common Share exceeds the NAV per Common Share, the average per Common Share purchase price paid by the Reinvestment Plan Agent may exceed the NAV of the Common Shares, resulting in the acquisition of fewer Common
Shares than if the dividend had been paid in newly issued Common Shares on the dividend payment date. Because of the foregoing difficulty with respect to open-market purchases, the Reinvestment Plan provides that if the Reinvestment Plan Agent is
unable to invest the full dividend amount in open-market purchases, or if the market discount shifts to a market premium during the purchase period, the Reinvestment Plan Agent may cease making open-market purchases and may invest any uninvested
portion in newly issued shares. Investments in newly issued shares made in this manner would be made pursuant to the same process described above and the date of issue for such newly issued shares will substitute for the dividend payment date.

shareholders. Following any such conversion, it is possible that certain of the Fund&#146;s investment policies and strategies would have to be modified to assure sufficient portfolio liquidity. In the event of conversion, the Fund&#146;s Common
Shares would cease to be listed on the NYSE. Shareholders of an open-end investment company may require the company to redeem their shares at any time, except in certain circumstances as authorized by or under the 1940 Act, at their NAV, less such
redemption charge, if any, as might be in effect at the time of redemption. An open-end investment company expects to pay all such redemption requests in cash, but reserves the right to pay redemption requests in a combination of cash and
securities. If such partial payment in securities were made, investors may incur brokerage costs in converting such securities to cash. If a Fund were converted to an open-end investment company, it is likely that new shares would be sold at NAV
plus a sales load. Each Board believes, however, that its Fund&#146;s closed-end structure is desirable in light of its Fund&#146;s investment objective and policies. Therefore, shareholders should assume that it is not likely that any Board would

enclosed proxy card (described in greater detail below). Shareholders of each Fund have the opportunity to submit their voting instructions via the Internet or by &#147;touch-tone&#148; telephone voting. The giving of such a proxy will not affect
your right to vote in person should you decide to attend the Special Meeting. To use the Internet, please access the Internet address found on your proxy card. To record your voting instructions by automated telephone, please call the toll-free
number listed on your proxy card. The Internet and automated telephone voting instructions are designed to authenticate shareholder identities, to allow shareholders to give their voting instructions, and to confirm that shareholders&#146;
instructions have been recorded properly. Shareholders submitting their voting instructions via the Internet should understand that there may be costs associated with Internet access, such as usage charges from Internet access providers and
telephone companies that must be borne by the shareholders. Any person giving a proxy may revoke it at any time prior to its exercise by giving written notice of the revocation to the Secretary of the Fund at 40 East 52nd Street, New York, New York
10022, by delivering a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, by recording later-dated voting instructions via the Internet or automated telephone or by attending the Special Meeting and voting in person. The giving of a proxy will not affect
your right to vote in person if you attend the Special Meeting and wish to do so. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Votes cast by proxy or in person at the
Special Meeting will be tabulated by the inspectors of election appointed for the Special Meeting. For each Fund, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of shares entitled to cast one-third of the votes entitled to be cast shall
constitute a quorum to conduct business at the Special Meeting, except with respect to any matter which requires approval by a separate vote of one or more classes or series of shares, in which case the presence in person or by proxy of the holders
of shares entitled to cast one-third of the votes entitled to be cast by each class or series entitled to vote as a separate class or series shall constitute a quorum to conduct business at the Special Meeting.&nbsp;A quorum, once established, shall
not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum. If, however, such quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the shareholders, the chair of the Special Meeting shall have power to adjourn the meeting
from time to time, in the manner provided in the Fund&#146;s bylaws, until a quorum shall be present or represented. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The

specific voting instructions from its customers. In those cases, the service agent may, but may not be required to, vote such shares in the same proportion as those shares for which the service agent has received voting instructions. This practice

or about February&nbsp;2, 2015. Shareholders of the Funds whose shares are held by nominees such as brokers can vote their proxies by contacting their respective nominee. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, employees of the
Investment Advisor and their affiliates as well as dealers or their representatives may solicit proxies in person or by mail, telephone, fax or the internet. The Funds and the Investment Advisor have retained Georgeson Inc. (&#147;Georgeson&#148;),

Common Shares, the &#147;Shares&#148;), in the form of book entry interests.&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund will list the newly issued Common Shares on the New York Stock Exchange (&#147;NYSE&#148;).&nbsp;The Target Fund will then distribute the newly

increase volatility.&nbsp;Volatility is defined as the characteristic of a security, an index or a market to fluctuate significantly in price within a short time period.&nbsp;A risk of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s use of derivatives is that the
fluctuations in their values may not correlate perfectly with the overall securities markets.&nbsp;Derivatives are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party in the transaction will not fulfill its contractual
obligation.&nbsp;In addition, some derivatives are more sensitive to interest rate changes and market price fluctuations than other securities.&nbsp;The possible lack of a liquid secondary market for derivatives and the resulting inability of the
Acquiring Fund to sell or otherwise close a derivatives position could expose the Acquiring Fund to losses and could make derivatives more difficult for the Acquiring Fund to value accurately.&nbsp;The Acquiring Fund could also suffer losses related
to its derivative positions as a result of unanticipated market movements, which losses are potentially unlimited.&nbsp;Finally, the Investment Advisor may not be able to predict correctly the direction of securities prices, interest rates and other
economic factors, which could cause the Acquiring Fund&#146;s derivatives positions to lose value.&nbsp;When a derivative is used as a hedge against a position that the Acquiring Fund holds, any loss generated by the derivative generally should be
substantially offset by gains on the hedged investment, and vice versa.&nbsp;While hedging can reduce or eliminate losses, it can also reduce or eliminate gains.&nbsp;Hedges are sometimes subject to imperfect matching between the derivative and the
underlying security, and there can be no assurance that the Acquiring Fund&#146;s hedging transactions will be effective.&nbsp;The income from certain derivatives may be subject to federal income tax.&nbsp;Swap agreements involve the risk that the
party with whom the Acquiring Fund has entered into the swap will default on its obligation to pay the Acquiring Fund and the risk that the Acquiring Fund will not be able to meet its obligations to pay the other party to the agreement.&nbsp;Credit
default swaps involve special risks in addition to those mentioned above because they are difficult to value, are highly susceptible to liquidity and credit risk, and generally pay a return to the party that has paid the premium only in the event of
an actual default by the issuer of the underlying obligation (as opposed to a credit downgrade or other indication of financial difficulty). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

securities, including inverse securities (which move in an opposite direction to the index), may create leverage, to the extent that they increase or decrease in value at a rate that is a
multiple of the changes in the applicable index. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">There can be no assurance that, at any specific time, either a liquid
secondary market will exist for a derivative or the Acquiring Fund will otherwise be able to sell such instrument at an acceptable price.&nbsp;It may, therefore, not be possible to close a position in a derivative without incurring substantial
losses, if at all.&nbsp;Certain transactions in derivatives (such as futures transactions or sales of put options) involve substantial leverage risk and may expose the Acquiring Fund to potential losses that exceed the amount originally invested by
the Acquiring Fund.&nbsp;When the Acquiring Fund engages in such a transaction, the Acquiring Fund will deposit in a segregated account liquid assets with a value at least equal to the Acquiring Fund&#146;s exposure, on a mark-to-market basis, to
the transaction (as calculated pursuant to requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission).&nbsp;Such segregation will ensure that the Acquiring Fund has assets available to satisfy its obligations with respect to the transaction, but will
not limit the Acquiring Fund&#146;s exposure to loss. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Risk Factors in Futures Transactions and Options
Thereon</I>.&nbsp;Investment in futures contracts involves the risk of imperfect correlation between movements in the price of the futures contract and the price of the security being hedged. The hedge will not be fully effective when there is
imperfect correlation between the movements in the prices of two financial instruments. For example, if the price of the futures contract moves more or less than the price of the hedged security, the Acquiring Fund will experience either a loss or
gain on the futures contract which is not completely offset by movements in the price of the hedged securities. To compensate for imperfect correlations, the Acquiring Fund may purchase or sell futures contracts in a greater dollar amount than the
hedged securities if the volatility of the hedged securities is historically greater than the volatility of the futures contracts. Conversely, the Acquiring Fund may purchase or sell fewer futures contracts if the volatility of the price of the
hedged securities is historically less than that of the futures contracts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The particular municipal bonds comprising the
index underlying the Municipal Bond Index financial futures contract may vary from the bonds held by the Acquiring Fund. As a result, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s ability to hedge effectively all or a portion of the value of its Municipal Bonds through
the use of such financial futures contracts will depend in part on the degree to which price movements in the index underlying the financial futures contract correlate with the price movements of the Municipal Bonds held by the Acquiring Fund. The
correlation may be affected by disparities in the average maturity, ratings, geographical mix or structure of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s investments as compared to those comprising the Municipal Bond Index and general economic or political factors.
In addition, the correlation between movements in the value of the Municipal Bond Index may be subject to change over time as additions to and deletions from the Municipal Bond Index alter its structure. The correlation between futures contracts on
U.S. Government securities and the Municipal Bonds held by the Acquiring Fund may be adversely affected by similar factors and the risk of imperfect correlation between movements in the prices of such futures contracts and the prices of Municipal
Bonds held by the Acquiring Fund may be greater. Municipal Bond Index futures contracts were approved for trading in 1986. Trading in such futures contracts may tend to be less liquid than trading in other futures contracts. The trading of futures
contracts also is subject to certain market risks, such as inadequate trading activity, which could at times make it difficult or impossible to liquidate existing positions. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">There can be no assurance that a liquid secondary market will exist for any particular futures contract at any specific time. Thus, it may not be possible to close out a futures position. In the event of
adverse price movements, the Acquiring Fund would continue to be required to make daily cash payments of variation margin. In such situations, if the Acquiring Fund has insufficient cash, it may be required to sell portfolio securities to meet daily
variation margin requirements at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so. The inability to close out futures positions also could have an adverse impact on the Acquiring Fund&#146;s ability to hedge effectively its investments in Municipal
Bonds. The liquidity of a secondary market in a futures contract may be adversely affected by &#147;daily price fluctuation limits&#148; established by commodity exchanges which limit the amount of fluctuation in a futures contract price during a
single trading day. Once the daily limit has been reached in the </FONT></P>

contract, no trades may be entered into at a price beyond the limit, thus preventing the liquidation of open futures positions. Prices have in the past moved beyond the daily limit on a number of
consecutive trading days. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The successful use of transactions in futures and related options also depends on the ability of
the Investment Advisor to forecast correctly the direction and extent of interest rate movements within a given time frame. To the extent interest rates remain stable during the period in which a futures contract or option is held by the Acquiring
Fund or such rates move in a direction opposite to that anticipated, the Acquiring Fund may realize a loss on the hedging transaction which is not fully or partially offset by an increase in the value of portfolio securities. As a result, the
Acquiring Fund&#146;s total return for such period may be less than if it had not engaged in the hedging transaction. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Because
of low initial margin deposits made upon the opening of a futures position, futures transactions involve substantial leverage. As a result, relatively small movements in the price of the futures contracts can result in substantial unrealized gains
or losses. There is also the risk of loss by the Acquiring Fund of margin deposits in the event of bankruptcy of a broker with whom the Acquiring Fund has an open position in a financial futures contract. Because the Acquiring Fund will engage in
the purchase and sale of futures contracts for hedging purposes or to seek to enhance the Acquiring Fund&#146;s return, any losses incurred in connection therewith should, if the hedging strategy is successful, be offset in whole or in part by
increases in the value of securities held by the Acquiring Fund or decreases in the price of securities the Acquiring Fund intends to acquire. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The amount of risk the Acquiring Fund assumes when it purchases an option on a futures contract is the premium paid for the option plus related transaction costs. In addition to the correlation risks
discussed above, the purchase of an option on a futures contract also entails the risk that changes in the value of the underlying futures contract will not be fully reflected in the value of the option purchased. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Options Risks</I>.&nbsp;There are several risks associated with transactions in options on securities and indexes. For example, there
are significant differences between the securities and options markets that could result in an imperfect correlation between these markets, causing a given transaction not to achieve its objectives. In addition, a liquid secondary market for
particular options, whether traded over-the-counter or on a national securities exchange (&#147;Exchange&#148;) may be absent for reasons which include the following: there may be insufficient trading interest in certain options; restrictions may be
imposed by an Exchange on opening transactions or closing transactions or both; trading halts, suspensions or other restrictions may be imposed with respect to particular classes or series of options or underlying securities; unusual or unforeseen
circumstances may interrupt normal operations on an Exchange; the facilities of an Exchange or the OCC may not at all times be adequate to handle current trading volume; or one or more Exchanges could, for economic or other reasons, decide or be
compelled at some future date to discontinue the trading of options (or a particular class or series of options), in which event the secondary market on that Exchange (or in that class or series of options) would cease to exist, although outstanding
options that had been issued by the OCC as a result of trades on that Exchange would continue to be exercisable in accordance with their terms. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Over-the-Counter Trading Risk.</I>&nbsp;The derivative instruments that may be purchased or sold by the Acquiring Fund may include instruments not traded on an exchange. The risk of nonperformance by
the counterparty to an instrument may be greater than, and the ease with which the Acquiring Fund can dispose of or enter into closing transactions with respect to an instrument may be less than, the risk associated with an exchange traded
instrument. In addition, significant disparities may exist between &#147;bid&#148; and &#147;asked&#148; prices for derivative instruments that are not traded on an exchange. The absence of liquidity may make it difficult or impossible for the
Acquiring Fund to sell such instruments promptly at an acceptable price. Derivative instruments not traded on exchanges also are not subject to the same type of government regulation as exchange traded instruments, and many of the protections
afforded to participants in a regulated environment may not be available in connection with the transactions. Because derivatives traded in OTC markets generally are not guaranteed by an exchange or clearing corporation and generally do not require
payment of margin, to the extent that the Acquiring Fund has unrealized gains in such instruments or has deposited collateral with its counterparties the Acquiring Fund is at risk that its counterparties will become bankrupt or otherwise fail to
honor its obligations. </FONT></P>

Act (&#147;CEA&#148;) requires swaps and futures clearing brokers registered as &#147;futures commission merchants&#148; to segregate all funds received from customers with respect to any orders for the purchase or sale of U.S. domestic futures
contracts and cleared swaps from the brokers&#146; proprietary assets.&nbsp;Similarly, the CEA requires each futures commission merchant to hold in a separate secure account all funds received from customers with respect to any orders for the
purchase or sale of foreign futures contracts and segregate any such funds from the funds received with respect to domestic futures contracts. However, all funds and other property received by a clearing broker from its customers are held by the
clearing broker on a commingled basis in an omnibus account and may be freely accessed by the clearing broker, which may also invest any such funds in certain instruments permitted under the applicable regulations.&nbsp;There is a risk that assets
deposited by the Acquiring Fund with any swaps or futures clearing broker as margin for futures contracts or cleared swaps may, in certain circumstances, be used to satisfy losses of other clients of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s clearing
broker.&nbsp;In addition, the assets of the Acquiring Fund might not be fully protected in the event of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s clearing broker&#146;s bankruptcy, as the Acquiring Fund would be limited to recovering only a pro rata share of all
available funds segregated on behalf of the clearing broker&#146;s combined domestic customer accounts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Similarly, the CEA
requires a clearing organization approved by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (&#147;CFTC&#148;) as a derivatives clearing organization to segregate all funds and other property received from a clearing member&#146;s clients in connection
with domestic futures and options contracts from any funds held at the clearing organization to support the clearing member&#146;s proprietary trading.&nbsp;Nevertheless, all customer funds held at a clearing organization in connection with any
futures or options contracts are held in a commingled omnibus account and are not identified to the name of the clearing member&#146;s individual customers.&nbsp;With respect to futures and options contracts, a clearing organization may use assets
of a non-defaulting customer held in an omnibus account at the clearing organization to satisfy payment obligations of a defaulting customer of the clearing member to the clearing organization.&nbsp;As a result, in the event of a default of the
clearing broker&#146;s other clients or the clearing broker&#146;s failure to extend its own funds in connection with any such default, the Acquiring Fund would not be able to recover the full amount of assets deposited by the clearing broker on
behalf of the Acquiring Fund with the clearing organization. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Dodd-Frank Act Risk. </I>Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act (the
&#147;Derivatives Title&#148;) imposes a new regulatory structure on derivatives markets, with particular emphasis on swaps and security-based swaps (collectively &#147;swaps&#148;). This new regulatory framework covers a broad range of swap market
participants, including banks, non-banks, credit unions, insurance companies, broker-dealers and investment advisers. The SEC, other U.S. regulators, and to a lesser extent the CFTC (the &#147;Regulators&#148;) still are in the process of adopting
regulations to implement the Derivatives Title, though certain aspects of the new regulatory structure are substantially complete. Until the Regulators complete their rulemaking efforts, the full extent to which the Derivatives Title and the rules
adopted thereunder will impact the Acquiring Fund is unclear. It is possible that the continued development of this new regulatory structure for swaps may jeopardize certain trades and/or trading strategies that may be employed by the Investment
Advisor, or at least make them more costly. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Recently, new regulations have required the mandatory central clearing and
mandatory exchange trading of particular types of interest rate swaps and index credit default swaps (together, &#147;Covered Swaps&#148;).&nbsp;Together, these new regulatory requirements change the Acquiring Fund&#146;s trading of Covered
Swaps.&nbsp;With respect to mandatory central clearing, the Acquiring Fund is now required to clear its Covered Swaps through a clearing broker, which requires, among other things, posting initial margin and variation margin to the Acquiring
Fund&#146;s clearing broker in order to enter into and maintain positions in Covered Swaps.&nbsp;With respect to mandatory exchange trading, the Investment Advisor may be required to become participants of a new type of execution platform called a
swap execution facility (&#147;SEF&#148;) or may be required to access the SEF through an intermediary (such as an executing broker) in order to be able to trade Covered Swaps for the Acquiring Fund.&nbsp;In either scenario, the Investment Advisor
and/or the Acquiring Fund may incur additional legal and compliance costs and transaction fees. Just as with the other regulatory changes imposed as a result of the implementation of the Derivatives Title, the increased costs and fees associated
with trading Covered Swaps may jeopardize certain trades and/or trading strategies that may be employed by the Investment Advisor, or at least make them more costly. </FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Additionally, the Regulators plan to finalize proposed regulations that would require swap
dealers to collect from the Acquiring Fund initial margin and variation margin for uncleared derivatives transactions and that would impose upon swap dealers new capital requirements.&nbsp;These requirements, when finalized, may make certain types
of trades and/or trading strategies more costly or impermissible. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">There may be market dislocations due to uncertainty during
the implementation period of any new regulation and the Investment Advisor cannot know how the derivatives market will adjust to new regulations. Until the Regulators complete the rulemaking process for the Derivatives Title, it is unknown the

the ability of the Acquiring Fund to achieve its investment objective.&nbsp;In addition, as new rules and regulations resulting from the passage of the Dodd-Frank Act are implemented and new international capital and liquidity requirements are
introduced under the Basel III Accords (&#147;Basel III&#148;), the market may not react the way the Investment Advisor expects.&nbsp;Whether the Acquiring Fund achieves its investment objective may depend on, among other things, whether the

Investment Managers, L.P. (&#147;MLIM&#148;) and BlackRock, Inc. (&#147;BlackRock&#148;) in September 2006, the various legacy MLIM and legacy BlackRock fund boards were realigned and consolidated into three new fund boards in 2007.&nbsp;As a
result, although the chart shows certain Board Members as joining the Funds&#146; Boards in 2007, each Board Member first became a member of the board of other legacy MLIM or legacy BlackRock funds as follows: Richard E. Cavanagh, 1994; Frank J.
Fabozzi, 1988; Kathleen F. Feldstein, 2005; James T. Flynn, 1996; Jerrold B. Harris, 1999; R. Glenn Hubbard, 2004; W. Carl Kester, 1995 and Karen P. Robards, 1998.&nbsp;Each Independent Board Member will serve until his or her successor is elected
and qualifies, or until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement or removal, or until December&nbsp;31 of the year in which he or she turns 74. The maximum age limitation may be waived as to any Board Member by action of a majority of the
Board upon a finding of good cause therefor.&nbsp;In 2014, the Boards of the Funds unanimously approved extending the mandatory retirement age for James T. Flynn until the Funds&#146; annual shareholder meeting in 2015, which the Boards believed
would be in the best interest of shareholders. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE> <P STYLE="font-size:6px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

trends and governance practices. Mr. Cavanagh created the &#147;blue ribbon&#148; Commission on Public Trust and Private Enterprise in 2002, which recommended corporate governance enhancements. Mr. Cavanagh&#146;s service as a director of The
Guardian Life Insurance Company of America and as a senior advisor and director of The Fremont Group provides added insight into investment trends and conditions. Mr.&nbsp;Cavanagh&#146;s long-standing service on the boards of the Closed-End Complex
also provides him with a specific understanding of the Funds, their operations, and the business and regulatory issues facing the Funds. Mr. Cavanagh&#146;s independence from the Funds and the Funds&#146; investment advisor enhances his service as

meeting not less than 120 days nor more than 150 days before the anniversary of the prior year&#146;s annual shareholder meeting. Assuming that the 2015 annual shareholder meeting of a Fund is held within 25 days of July&nbsp;30, 2015, the Fund must

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">BlackRock has built a professional working environment, firm-wide compliance culture and compliance procedures and systems designed to protect against potential incentives that may favor one account over
another. BlackRock has adopted policies and procedures that address the allocation of investment opportunities, execution of portfolio transactions, personal trading by employees and other potential conflicts of interest that are designed to ensure
that all client accounts are treated equitably over time. Nevertheless, BlackRock furnishes investment management and advisory services to numerous clients in addition to the Fund, and BlackRock may, consistent with applicable law, make investment
recommendations to other clients or accounts (including accounts which are hedge funds or have performance or higher fees paid to BlackRock, or in which portfolio managers have a personal interest in the receipt of such fees), which may be the same
as or different from those made to the Fund. In addition, BlackRock, Inc., its affiliates and significant shareholders and any officer, director, shareholder or employee may or may not have an interest in the securities whose purchase and sale
BlackRock recommends to the Fund. BlackRock, Inc., or any of its affiliates or significant shareholders, or any officer, director, shareholder, employee or any member of their families may take different actions than those recommended to the Fund by
BlackRock with respect to the same securities. Moreover, BlackRock may refrain from rendering any advice or services concerning securities of companies of which any of BlackRock, Inc.&#145;s (or its affiliates&#146; or significant
shareholders&#146;) officers, directors or employees are directors or officers, or companies as to which BlackRock, Inc. or any of its affiliates or significant shareholders or the officers, directors and employees of any of them has any substantial
economic interest or possesses material non-public information. Certain portfolio managers also may manage accounts whose investment strategies may at times be opposed to the strategy utilized for a fund. It should also be noted that a portfolio
manager may be managing hedge fund and/or long only accounts, or may be part of a team managing hedge fund and/or long only accounts, subject to incentive fees. Such portfolio managers may therefore be entitled to receive a portion of any incentive
fees earned on such accounts. Currently, the portfolio managers of this fund are not entitled to receive a portion of incentive fees of other accounts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As a fiduciary, BlackRock owes a duty of loyalty to its clients and must treat each client fairly. When BlackRock purchases or sells securities for more than one account, the trades must be allocated in a
manner consistent with its fiduciary duties. BlackRock attempts to allocate investments in a fair and equitable manner among client accounts, with no account receiving preferential treatment. To this end, BlackRock, Inc. has adopted policies that
are intended to ensure reasonable efficiency in client transactions and provide BlackRock with sufficient flexibility to allocate investments in a manner that is consistent with the particular investment discipline and client base, as appropriate.

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Discretionary incentive compensation is a function of several components: the performance of BlackRock, Inc., the performance of the portfolio manager&#146;s group within BlackRock, the investment
performance, including risk-adjusted returns, of the firm&#146;s assets under management or supervision by that portfolio manager relative to predetermined benchmarks, and the individual&#146;s performance and contribution to the overall performance
of these portfolios and BlackRock. In most cases, these benchmarks are the same as the benchmark or benchmarks against which the performance of the Funds or other accounts managed by the portfolio managers are measured. Among other things,
BlackRock&#146;s Chief Investment Officers make a subjective determination with respect to each portfolio manager&#146;s compensation based on the performance of the Funds and other accounts managed by each portfolio manager relative to the various
benchmarks. Performance of fixed income funds is measured on a pre-tax and/or after-tax basis over various time periods including 1-, 3- and 5- year periods, as applicable. With respect to these portfolio managers, such benchmarks for the Fund and

incentive compensation is distributed to portfolio managers in a combination of cash and BlackRock, Inc. restricted stock units which vest ratably over a number of years. For some portfolio managers, discretionary incentive compensation is also
distributed in deferred cash awards that notionally track the returns of select BlackRock investment products they manage and that vest ratably over a number of years. The BlackRock, Inc. restricted stock units, upon vesting, will be settled in
BlackRock, Inc. common stock. Typically, the cash portion of the discretionary incentive compensation, when combined with base salary, represents more than 60% of total compensation for the portfolio managers. Paying a portion of discretionary
incentive compensation in BlackRock, Inc. stock puts compensation earned by a portfolio manager for a given year &#147;at risk&#148; based on BlackRock&#146;s ability to sustain and improve its performance over future periods. Providing a portion of
discretionary incentive compensation in deferred cash awards that notionally track the BlackRock investment products they manage provides direct alignment with investment product results. </FONT></P>

first 8% of eligible pay contributed to the plan capped at $5,000 per year, and a company retirement contribution equal to 3-5% of eligible compensation up to the Internal Revenue Service limit ($260,000 for 2014). The RSP offers a range of
investment options, including registered investment companies and collective investment funds managed by the firm. BlackRock, Inc. contributions follow the investment direction set by participants for their own contributions or, absent participant
investment direction, are invested into a target date fund that corresponds to, or is closest to, the year in which the participant attains age 65. The ESPP allows for investment in BlackRock, Inc. common stock at a 5% discount on the fair market
value of the stock on the purchase date. Annual participation in the ESPP is limited to the purchase of 1,000 shares of common stock or a dollar value of $25,000 based on its fair market value on the purchase date. All of the eligible portfolio
managers are eligible to participate in these plans. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Securities Ownership of Portfolio Managers as of July&nbsp;31, 2014 </B></FONT></P>

effect the transactions and the negotiation of prices and any brokerage commissions. The securities in which the Funds invest are traded principally in the over-the-counter market. In the over-the-counter market, securities are generally traded on a
&#147;net&#148; basis with dealers acting as principal for their own accounts without a stated commission, although the price of such securities usually includes a markup to the dealer. Securities purchased in underwritten offerings generally
include, in the price, a fixed amount of compensation for the manager(s), underwriter(s) and dealer(s). The Funds may also purchase certain money market instruments directly from an issuer, in which case no commissions or discounts are paid.
Purchases and sales of bonds on a stock exchange are effected through brokers who charge a commission for their services. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The
Investment Advisor is responsible for effecting securities transactions of the Funds and will do so in a manner deemed fair and reasonable to shareholders of the Funds and not according to any formula. The Investment Advisor&#146;s primary
considerations in selecting the manner of executing securities transactions for the Funds will be prompt execution of orders, the size and breadth of the market for the security, the reliability, integrity and financial condition and execution
capability of the firm, the difficulty in executing the order, and the best net price. There are many instances when, in the judgment of the Investment Advisor, more than one firm can offer comparable execution services. In selecting among such
firms, consideration is given to those firms which supply research and other services in addition to execution services. Consideration may also be given to the sale of shares of the Funds.&nbsp;However, it is not the policy of BlackRock, absent
special circumstances, to pay higher commissions to a firm because it has supplied such research or other services. </FONT></P>

program to the Funds without receiving research or other information from brokers; however, each considers access to such information to be an important element of financial management. Although such information is considered useful, its value is
not determinable, as it must be reviewed and assimilated by the Investment Advisor, and does not reduce the Investment Advisor&#146;s normal research activities in rendering investment advice under the investment management agreement or the
sub-investment advisory agreement. It is possible that the Investment Advisor&#146;s expenses could be materially increased if it attempted to purchase this type of information or generate it through its own staff. </FONT></P>

investments as the Funds. Investment decisions for the Funds are made independently from those of such other investment companies or accounts; however, from time to time, the same investment decision may be made for more than one company or account.
When two or more companies or accounts seek to purchase or sell the same securities, the securities actually purchased or sold will be allocated among the companies and accounts on a good faith equitable basis by the Investment Advisor in their
discretion in accordance with the accounts&#146; various investment objectives. In some cases, this system may adversely affect the price or size of the position obtainable for the Funds. In other cases, however, the ability of the Funds to
participate in volume transactions may produce better execution for the Funds. It is the opinion of the Funds&#146; Boards that this advantage, when combined with the other benefits available due to the Investment Advisor&#146;s organization,
outweighs any disadvantages that may be said to exist from exposure to simultaneous transactions. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">It is not the Funds&#146;
policy to engage in transactions with the objective of seeking profits from short-term trading. However, the annual portfolio turnover rate of the Funds may be greater than 100%. Because it is difficult to predict accurately portfolio turnover
rates, actual turnover may be higher or lower. Higher portfolio turnover results in increased a Fund&#146;s costs, including brokerage commissions, dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and on the reinvestment in
other securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Each Fund has received an exemptive order from the SEC permitting them to lend portfolio securities to

collateral. The securities lending agent may, on behalf of the Fund, invest cash collateral received by the Fund for such loans, among other things, in a private investment company managed by the Investment Advisor or in registered money market

when BlackRock may not initiate or recommend certain types of transactions, or may otherwise restrict or limit their advice in certain securities or instruments issued by or related to companies for which an Affiliate is performing investment
banking, market making or other services or has proprietary positions. For example, when an Affiliate is engaged in an underwriting or other distribution of securities of, or advisory services for, a company, a Fund may be prohibited from or limited

applicable law, a Fund may purchase securities or instruments that are issued by such companies or are the subject of an underwriting, distribution, or advisory assignment by an Affiliate, or in cases in which personnel of BlackRock or its
Affiliates are directors or officers of the issuer. The investment activities of one or more Affiliates for their proprietary accounts and for client accounts may also limit the investment strategies and rights of a Fund. For example, in regulated
industries, in certain emerging or international markets, in corporate and regulatory ownership definitions, and in certain futures and derivative transactions, and to comply with certain provisions of the 1940 Act that prohibit affiliated
transactions, there may be limits on the aggregate amount of investment by affiliated investors that may not be exceeded without the grant of a license or other regulatory or corporate consent or, if exceeded, may cause BlackRock, a Fund or other
client accounts to suffer disadvantages or business restrictions. These limitations may cause a Fund to invest in different portfolios than other BlackRock funds which may result in such Fund investing on less advantageous terms than such other

affiliated person of such Fund or the Investment Advisor, on the other. In such event, provided that the Investment Advisor&#146;s Equity Investment Policy Oversight Committee, or a sub-committee thereof (the &#147;Committee&#148;) is aware of the
real or potential conflict, if the matter to be voted on represents a material, non-routine matter and if the Committee does not reasonably believe it is able to follow its general voting guidelines (or if the particular proxy matter is not
addressed in the guidelines) and vote impartially, the Committee may retain an independent fiduciary to advise the Committee on how to vote or to cast votes on behalf of the Investment Advisor&#146;s clients. If the Investment Advisor determines not
to retain an independent fiduciary, or does not desire to follow the advice of such independent fiduciary, the Committee shall determine how to vote the proxy after consulting with the Investment Advisor&#146;s Portfolio Management Group and/or the
Investment Advisor&#146;s Legal&nbsp;&amp; Compliance Department and concluding that the vote cast is in its client&#146;s best interest notwithstanding the conflict. A copy of the Funds&#146; Proxy Voting Policy and Procedures is included as

of all adverse conditions to which the issuers of municipal bonds held by BlackRock MuniHoldings New Jersey Quality Fund, Inc. (the &#147;Fund&#148;) are subject. Additionally, many factors, including national economic, social and environmental
policies and conditions, which are not within the control of the issuers of the municipal bonds, could affect or could have an adverse impact on the financial condition of the issuers. The Fund is unable to predict whether or to what extent such
factors or other factors may affect the issuers of the municipal securities, the market value or marketability of the municipal securities or the ability of the respective issuers of the municipal bonds acquired by the Fund to pay interest on or
principal of the municipal securities. This information has not been independently verified. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><U>Special Considerations
Relating to New Jersey Municipal Obligations.</U></B> The Fund will have considerable investments in New Jersey municipal obligations. Accordingly, the Fund is susceptible to certain factors which could adversely affect issuers of New Jersey
municipal obligations. The ability of issuers to pay interest on, and repay principal of, New Jersey municipal obligations may be affected by: (1)&nbsp;amendments to the Constitution of the State of New Jersey (&#147;State&#148;) and other statutes
that limit the taxing and spending authority of State government entities; (2)&nbsp;the general financial and economic profile as well as the political climate of the State, its public authorities and political subdivisions; and (3)&nbsp;a change in
State laws and regulations or subsequent court decisions that may affect, directly or indirectly, New Jersey municipal obligations. The Fund&#146;s yield and share price are sensitive to these factors as one or more of such factors could undermine
New Jersey issuers&#146; efforts to borrow, inhibit secondary market liquidity and erode credit ratings. Furthermore, it should be noted that the creditworthiness of obligations issued by local New Jersey issuers may be unrelated to the
creditworthiness of obligations issued by the State and that there is no obligation on the part of the State to make payment on such local obligations in the event of default. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

of the State. It should be noted that the information recorded here is based on the economic and budget forecasts found in certain publications issued by the State between February&nbsp;21, 2012 and December 2014. The accuracy and completeness of
the information in those publications have not been independently verified. Since the time that certain of those resources were published, there have been (and may still be) significant changes in circumstances altering the economic and budget

are adopted for the General Fund and certain special revenue funds. The Legislature enacts the annual budget through specific departmental appropriations, the sum of which may not exceed estimated resources. The State Constitution requires that the
annual State budget be balanced. Pursuant to the State Constitution, no money may be drawn from the State Treasury except for appropriations made by law. In addition, all monies for the support of State government and all other State purposes, as
far as can be reasonably ascertained or predicted, must be provided for in one general appropriation law covering the span of a single fiscal year. No general appropriations law or other law appropriating money for any State purpose may be enacted
if the amount of money appropriated, together with all other appropriations for that fiscal year, exceeds the total amount of revenue available (current and anticipated) for such fiscal year, as certified by the Governor. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><U>Debt Limitations.</U></B> The State Constitution provides, in part, that the State Legislature shall not, in any manner, create in
any fiscal year a debt or liability of the State, which, together with any previous debts or liabilities, shall exceed at any time one percent of the total appropriations for such year, unless the same shall be authorized by a law for some single
object or work distinctly specified therein. No such law shall take effect until submitted to the people at a general election and approved by a majority of the legally qualified voters voting thereon; provided, however, no such voter approval is
required for any such law authorizing the creation of a debt for a refinancing of all or any portion of the outstanding debts or liabilities of the State, so long as such refinancing produces a debt service savings. Furthermore, any funds raised
under these authorizations must be applied only to the specific object stated therein. The State Constitution provides as to any law authorizing such debt: &#147;Regardless of any limitation relating to taxation in this Constitution, such law shall
provide the ways and means, exclusive of loans, to pay the interest of such debt or liability as it falls due, and also to pay and discharge the principal thereof within thirty-five years from the time it is contracted; and the law shall not be
repealed until such debt or liability and the interest thereon are fully paid and discharged.&#148; This constitutional provision does not apply to the creation of debts or liabilities for purposes of war, or to repel invasion, or to suppress
insurrection or to meet emergencies caused by disaster or act of God (Article VIII, Sec. 2, para. 3) (the &#147;Debt Limitation Clause&#148;). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

specified therein is submitted to the people and approved by a majority of the legally qualified voters of the State voting thereon at a general election. The constitutional amendment does not
require voter approval for any such law providing the means to pay the principal of and interest on such debt or liability subject to appropriations of an independent non-State source of revenue paid by third persons for the use of the single object
or work thereof, or from a source of State revenue otherwise required to be appropriated pursuant to another provision of the State Constitution. Furthermore, voter approval is not needed for any law providing for the refinancing of all or a portion

appropriations are available for use in future years. From a fiscal year 2013 program perspective, under-spending transpired in community development and environmental management ($1.2 billion); physical and mental health ($696.4 million); public
safety and criminal justice ($444.4 million); economic planning, development, and security ($417.2 million); transportation programs ($118.2 million); special government services ($105.0 million); and government direction, management, and control

of the &#147;fiscal cliff&#148; fades. The State noted that the January&nbsp;1, 2013 increase in federal income tax rates spurred an acceleration of taxable income realizations toward calendar year 2012, and thus fiscal year 2013. </FONT></P>

to close loopholes. The State noted that in general, though, Corporate Tax collection growth in recent years has been relatively modest, compared to prior economic expansions. One contributing factor appears to be the ongoing shift of activity
toward limited liability companies not subject to the tax. Redemptions of State tax credits awarded under various programs are another factor holding back Corporate Business Tax growth. </FONT></P>

July&nbsp;17, 2009, plaintiff&#146;s child was allegedly shaken by his biological father. As a result, the child is severely disabled and requires life care by professionals. The biological father is currently incarcerated for aggravated assault.
The Division of Youth and Family Services (&#147;DYFS&#148;) (now known as the Division of Child Protection and Permanency in the Department of Children and Families) allegedly had knowledge that the biological father had a history of drug use,
domestic violence, mental health disorders and other issues. DYFS also was allegedly aware that the child showed prior evidence of abuse. Plaintiff alleges that DYFS failed to adequately investigate the reports of alleged abuse. After completion of
the trial, the jury awarded the plaintiff $166.0 million, of which approximately $57.0 million was for pain and suffering, approximately $4.0 million was for the child&#146;s past medical needs and $105.0 million is to cover the child&#146;s future
medical needs. The State has filed a motion for a new trial and, in the alternative, for remitter on the awards for pain and suffering and the child&#146;s future medical needs. The State noted that it is vigorously defending this matter.

creditworthiness of an obligor with respect to a specific financial obligation, a specific class of financial obligations or a specific financial program (including ratings on medium-term note programs and commercial paper programs). It takes into
consideration the creditworthiness of guarantors, insurers or other forms of credit enhancement on the obligation and takes into account the currency in which the obligation is denominated. The opinion reflects S&amp;P&#146;s view of the
obligor&#146;s capacity and willingness to meet its financial commitments as they come due, and may assess terms, such as collateral security and subordination, which could affect ultimate payment in the event of default. </FONT></P>

short-term in the relevant market. In the U.S., for example, that means obligations with an original maturity of no more than 365 days &#150; including commercial paper. Short-term ratings are also used to indicate the creditworthiness of an obligor
with respect to put features on long-term obligations. The result is a dual rating, in which the short-term rating addresses the put feature, in addition to the usual long-term rating. Medium-term notes are assigned long-term ratings. </FONT></P>

BlackRock-Advised Funds (the &#147;Funds&#148;) have the responsibility for voting proxies relating to portfolio securities of the Funds, and have determined that it is in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders to delegate that
responsibility to BlackRock Advisors, LLC and its affiliated U.S. registered investment advisers (&#147;BlackRock&#148;), the investment adviser to the Funds, as part of BlackRock&#146;s authority to manage, acquire and dispose of account assets.
The Directors hereby direct BlackRock to vote such proxies in accordance with this Policy, and any proxy voting guidelines that the Adviser determines are appropriate and in the best interests of the Funds&#146; shareholders and which are consistent
with the principles outlined in this Policy. Individual series of the Funds may be specifically excluded from this Policy by the Directors by virtue of the adoption of alternative proxy voting policy for such series. The Directors have authorized
BlackRock to utilize unaffiliated third-parties as its agents to vote portfolio proxies in accordance with this Policy and to maintain records of such portfolio proxy voting. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisors Act of 1940 requires, among other things, that an investment adviser that exercises voting authority over clients&#146; proxy voting adopt policies and
procedures reasonably designed to ensure that the adviser votes proxies in the best interests of clients, discloses to its clients information about those policies and procedures and also discloses to clients how they may obtain information on how
the adviser has voted their proxies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">BlackRock has adopted guidelines and procedures that are consistent with the principles
of this Policy. BlackRock&#146;s corporate governance committee structure (the &#147;Committee&#148;), oversees the proxy voting function on behalf of BlackRock and its clients, including the Funds. The Committee is comprised of senior members of
BlackRock&#146;s Portfolio Management and Administration Groups and is advised by BlackRock&#146;s Legal and Compliance Department. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">BlackRock votes (or refrains from voting) proxies for each Fund in a manner that BlackRock, in the exercise of its independent business judgment, concludes is in the best economic interests of such Fund.
In some cases, BlackRock may determine that it is in the best economic interests of a Fund to refrain from exercising the Fund&#146;s proxy voting rights (such as, for example, proxies on certain non-U.S. securities that might impose costly or
time-consuming in-person voting requirements). With regard to the relationship between securities lending and proxy voting, BlackRock&#146;s approach is also driven by our clients&#146; economic interests. The evaluation of the economic desirability
of recalling loans involves balancing the revenue producing value of loans against the likely economic value of casting votes. Based on our evaluation of this relationship, BlackRock believes that the likely economic value of casting a vote
generally is less than the securities lending income, either because the votes will not have significant economic consequences or because the outcome of the vote would not be affected by BlackRock recalling loaned securities in order to ensure they
are voted. Periodically, BlackRock analyzes the process and benefits of voting proxies for securities on loan, and will consider whether any modification of its proxy voting policies or procedures are necessary in light of any regulatory changes.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">BlackRock will normally vote on specific proxy issues in accordance with BlackRock&#146;s proxy voting guidelines.
BlackRock&#146;s proxy voting guidelines provide detailed guidance as to how to vote proxies on certain important or commonly raised issues. BlackRock may, in the exercise of its business judgment, conclude that the proxy voting guidelines do not
cover the specific matter upon which a proxy vote is requested, or that an exception to the proxy voting guidelines would be in the best economic interests of a Fund. BlackRock votes (or refrains from voting) proxies without regard to the
relationship of the issuer of the proxy (or any shareholder of such issuer) to the Fund, the Fund&#146;s affiliates (if any), BlackRock or BlackRock&#146;s affiliates. When voting proxies, BlackRock attempts to encourage companies to follow
practices that enhance shareholder value and increase transparency and allow the market to place a proper value on their assets. </FONT></P>

each person who is or was a Director, advisory board member or officer of the Fund (each such person being an &#147;Indemnitee&#148;) to the full extent permitted under the Charter. In addition, the Fund may provide greater but not lesser rights to
indemnification pursuant to a contract approved by at least a majority of Directors between the Fund and any Indemnitee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Indemnitee shall be indemnified hereunder against any liability to any person or any expense
of such Indemnitee arising by reason of (i)&nbsp;willful misfeasance, (ii)&nbsp;bad faith, (iii)&nbsp;gross negligence, or (iv)&nbsp;reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of the Indemnitee&#146;s position (the conduct referred to
in such clauses (i)&nbsp;through (iv)&nbsp;being sometimes referred to herein as &#147;Disabling Conduct&#148;). Furthermore, with respect to any action, suit or other proceeding voluntarily prosecuted by any Indemnitee as plaintiff, indemnification
shall be mandatory only if the prosecution of such action, suit or other proceeding by such Indemnitee (A)&nbsp;was authorized by a majority of the Directors or (B)&nbsp;was instituted by the Indemnitee to enforce his or her rights to

entitled to indemnification under the charter of the Registrant pursuant to which the Registrant has agreed to advance expenses and costs incurred by the indemnitee in connection with any matter in respect of which indemnification might be sought

directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant, pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>ITEM&nbsp;16.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><B><I>Exhibits</I></B><B> </B></FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><U>Response</U>: The Fund has informed us that the numbers are different because the numbers in the Pro Forma Financial Statements reflect the distribution of

undistributed net investment. Please see underlined disclosure below. </P>
