<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If
you do not exercise your Rights, you will, upon the completion of the Offer,
own a smaller proportional interest in the Fund than you do now. In addition,
because the Subscription Price per Share may be less than the then current net
asset value per Share, the completion of the Offer may result in an immediate
dilution of the net asset value per Share for all existing shareholders. Such
dilution could be substantial. If such dilution occurs, shareholders will
experience a decrease in the net asset value per Share held by them,
irrespective of whether they exercise all or any portion of their Rights. The
distribution to shareholders of transferable Rights, which may themselves have
intrinsic value, will afford such shareholders the potential of receiving cash
payment upon the sale of the Rights, receipt of which may be viewed as partial
compensation for the potential economic dilution of their interests. The Fund
cannot state precisely the extent of this dilution because the Fund does not
know what the net asset value will be when the Offer expires, how many Rights
will be exercised or the exact expenses of the Offer. Volatility in the market
price of Shares of the Fund may increase or decrease during the Offer. No
assurance can be given that a market for the Rights will develop, or as to the
value, if any, that the Rights will have. For further information on the
effects of dilution, see &#147;Special Considerations and Risk Factors&#148; on page&nbsp;[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]
of the prospectus.</font></p>

  business on [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;],
  2010 (the &#147;Record Date&#148;), transferable rights (&#147;Rights&#148;) to subscribe for an
  aggregate of approximately [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;] common shares of
  beneficial interest of the Fund (&#147;Shares&#148;), $0.001 par value per Share (the
  &#147;Offer&#148;). In certain circumstances described below under &#147;Over-Subscription
  Privilege,&#148; the Fund may increase the number of common shares of beneficial
  interest subject to subscription by up to [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]%. Each
  shareholder will receive one Right for each whole Share held by the
  shareholder as of the Record Date. Such shareholders may transfer Rights to
  other persons. Existing shareholders of the Fund who retain all or part of
  their Rights and persons acquiring Rights from such shareholders are together
  referred to as &#147;Rightholders.&#148; A Rightholder may subscribe for one new Share
  of the Fund for every [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;] Rights that are
  held by the Rightholder (1-for-[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]). No
  fractional Shares will be issued. If a shareholder receives less than
  [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;] Rights in total, that
  shareholder will be entitled to subscribe for one new Share. The right to
  acquire Shares during the Subscription Period (defined below) is referred to
  as the &#147;Primary Subscription&#148; and the Shares issued through the Primary
  Subscription are referred to as the &#147;Primary Subscription Shares.&#148;<br>
  <br>
  If a Rightholder [is a shareholder as of the Record Date (&#147;Record Date
  Shareholder&#148;) and] exercises all of the Rights it received in the Primary
  Subscription, that Rightholder also may subscribe for additional common
  shares of beneficial interest of the Fund pursuant to the Over-Subscription
  Privilege (as defined below).<br>
  <br>
  A Rightholder may elect to sell his or her Rights. The Rights will be traded
  on the NYSE Amex under the symbol
  [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;] during the
  course of the Offer. The Fund will use its reasonable best efforts to ensure
  that an adequate trading market for the Rights will exist but there is no
  assurance that a market for the Rights will develop. Trading in the Rights on
  the NYSE Amex may be conducted until and including the close of trading on
  the last NYSE Amex trading day prior to the Expiration Date (defined below).<br>
  <br>
  Assuming a market for the Rights develops, Rightholders who do not wish to
  exercise any or all of their rights may sell the Rights through the
  Subscription Agent (defined below) or through their broker. Any Rights
  submitted to the Subscription Agent for sale must be received by the
  Subscription Agent on or before 4:00&nbsp;p.m. Eastern Time
  [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;], 2010,
  [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;] business day[s] prior to the Expiration Date, due
  to normal settlement procedures. To sell any unexercised rights, a
  Rightholder will need to provide instructions to the Subscription Agent by
  4&nbsp;p.m. on
  [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;], 2010 or
  instruct his or her broker to sell any unexercised Rights in time for the
  broker to execute the transaction by the close of trading on
  [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;], 2010. See

  will also seek capital appreciation as a secondary objective, to the extent

  that Credit Suisse determines to be of comparable quality. Securities rated
  lower than Baa by Moody&#146;s and lower than BBB by S&amp;P are commonly known as
  &#147;junk bonds.&#148; The Fund will generally not invest in securities rated at the
  time of investment in the lowest rating categories (Ca or below for Moody&#146;s
  and CC or below for S&amp;P) but may continue to hold securities which are
  subsequently downgraded. However, it has authority to invest in securities
  rated as low as C and D by Moody&#146;s and S&amp;P, respectively.</font></p>

  significant risk of being in default (&#147;Distressed Securities&#148;). The Fund may
  invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities of issuers domiciled

  as noted above, the Fund may use leverage in the form of borrowings in an
  amount up to 33 1/3% of the Fund&#146;s total assets (including the proceeds of
  such leverage). The total leverage of the Fund is currently expected to range
  between 25% and 30% of the Fund&#146;s total assets. The Fund seeks a leverage
  ratio, based on a variety of factors including market conditions and the

  applicable Fund expenses, on the Fund&#146;s investment portfolio investments
  purchased with leverage exceeds the costs associated with such leverage.</font></p>

  Fund, as of
  [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;],
  is leveraged through borrowings from a credit facility in the amount of

  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Following
  the completion of the Offer, the Fund intends to increase the amount of
  leverage outstanding. The Fund may engage in additional borrowings in order
  to maintain the Fund&#146;s desired leverage ratio. Leverage creates a greater
  risk of loss, as well as a potential for more gain, for the common shares
  than if leverage were not used. Interest on borrowings may be at a fixed or
  floating rate and generally will be based on short-term rates. The costs associated
  with the Fund&#146;s use of leverage, including the issuance of such leverage and
  the payment of dividends or interest on such leverage, will be borne entirely
  by the holders of common shares. As long as the rate of return, net of
  applicable Fund expenses, on the Fund&#146;s investment portfolio investments
  purchased with leverage exceeds the costs associated with such leverage, the
  Fund will generate more return or income than will be needed to pay such
  costs. In this event, the excess will be available to pay higher dividends to
  holders of common shares. Conversely, if the Fund&#146;s return on such assets is
  less than the cost of leverage and other Fund expenses, the return to the
  holders of the common shares will diminish. To the extent that the Fund uses
  leverage, the net asset value and market price of the common shares and the
  yield to holders of common shares will be more volatile. The Fund&#146;s
  leveraging strategy may not be successful. See &#147;Use of Leverage&#148; and &#147;Special
  Considerations and Risk Factors &#151; Leverage Risk.&#148;</font></p>

  Suisse Group AG, one of the world&#146;s leading banks. Credit Suisse serves as
  the Fund&#146;s investment adviser with respect to all investments and is
  responsible for making all investment decisions. Credit Suisse receives from
  the Fund, as compensation for its advisory services, an annual fee, payable
  monthly, in an amount equal to 1% of the first $250 million of the average
  weekly value of the Fund&#146;s total assets minus the sum of liabilities (other
  than the aggregate indebtedness constituting leverage) (the &#147;Managed Assets&#148;)
  and 0.75% of the average weekly value of the Managed Assets greater than $250
  million. Credit Suisse may voluntarily waive a portion of its fees from time
  to time and temporarily limit the expenses to be borne by the Fund. Effective
  January&nbsp;1, 2007, Credit Suisse agreed to waive 0.15% of the fees payable
  under the Investment Advisory Agreement. During periods in which the Fund is
  utilizing leverage, the advisory fee will be higher than if the Fund did not
  utilize a leveraged capital structure because the fee is calculated as a
  percentage of the Managed Assets including those purchased with leverage. The
  Fund is currently utilizing leverage. The Investment Adviser is located at
  Eleven Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10010. See &#147;Management of the Fund

  many Shares will be subscribed for and because the proceeds of the Offer will
  be invested in additional portfolio securities, which will fluctuate in
  value. However, assuming (i)&nbsp;all Rights are exercised, (ii)&nbsp;the

  purposes of this example, the Fund increases the amount of leverage
  outstanding while maintaining approximately the same percentage of total
  assets attributable to leverage (after giving effect to offering expenses),
  the Investment Adviser would receive additional advisory fees of
  approximately $[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;] million for the
  calendar year [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;] and would continue to
  receive additional advisory fees as a result of the Offer, based on the

  your Rights, you will, upon the completion of the Offer, own a smaller
  proportional interest in the Fund than you do now and you may incur dilution
  of ownership and voting, as well as dilution of your share of any
  distributions made by the Fund, as a result of the Offer. In addition, if you
  do not submit a subscription request pursuant to the Over-Subscription
  Privilege and the Fund issues Additional Shares, you may experience further
  dilution of ownership and voting, as well as further dilution of your share
  of any distributions made by the Fund. Also, because the Subscription Price
  per Share may be less than the then current NAV per Share, the completion of
  the Offer may result in an immediate dilution of the net asset value per
  Share for all existing shareholders. Such dilution could be substantial. If
  such dilution occurs, shareholders will experience a decrease in the net
  asset value per Share held by them, irrespective of whether they exercise all
  or any portion of their Rights. The Fund cannot state precisely the extent of
  this dilution because the Fund does not know what the NAV will be when the
  Offer expires, how many Rights will be exercised or the exact expenses of the
  Offer. See &#147;Special Considerations and Risk Factors &#151; Potential Dilution.&#148;</font></p>

  present the opportunity to invest in high yielding securities. This
  expectation is based on the current market environment for high yield debt
  securities, which could change in response to interest rate levels, general
  economic conditions, specific industry conditions and other factors. If the
  market environment for high yield debt securities changes in a manner that
  adversely affects the yield of such securities, the Offer could cause the
  Fund to invest in securities that are lower yielding than those in which it
  is currently invested. In addition, even if the market for high yield debt
  securities continues to present attractive investment opportunities, there is
  no assurance that the Fund will be able to invest the proceeds of the Offer
  in high yielding securities or that other potential benefits of the Offer
  will be realized. The Offer could reduce the Fund&#146;s current dividend yield if
  the Fund is unable to invest the proceeds of the Offer in securities that
  provide a yield at least equal to the current dividend yield. See &#147;Special
  Considerations and Risk Factors &#151; Potential Yield Reduction.&#148;</font></p>

  Grade Securities Risk.</font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;"> Lower grade securities are regarded as
  being predominantly speculative as to the issuer&#146;s ability to make payments
  of principal and interest. Investment in such securities involves substantial
  risk. Issuers of lower grade securities may be highly leveraged and may not
  have available to them more traditional methods of financing. Therefore, the
  risks associated with acquiring the securities of such issuers generally are
  greater than is the case with higher-rated securities. For example, during an
  economic downturn or a sustained period of rising interest rates, issuers of
  lower grade securities may be more likely to experience financial stress,
  especially if such issuers are highly leveraged. During periods of economic
  downturn, such issuers may not have sufficient revenues to meet their interest
  payment obligations. The issuer&#146;s ability to service its debt obligations
  also may be adversely affected by specific issuer developments, the issuer&#146;s
  inability to meet specific projected business forecasts or the unavailability
  of additional financing. The risk of loss due to default by the issuer is
  significantly greater for the holders of lower grade securities because such
  securities may be unsecured and may be subordinate to other creditors of the
  issuer. Other than with respect to Distressed Securities, discussed below,
  the lower grade securities in which the Fund may invest do not include
  instruments which, at the time of investment, are in default or the issuers
  of which are in bankruptcy. However, there can be no assurance that such
  events will not occur after the Fund purchases a particular security, in
  which case the Fund may experience losses and incur costs. See &#147;Special
  Considerations and Risk Factors &#151; Lower Grade Securities Risk.&#148;</font></p>

  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><i><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-style:italic;">Distressed
  Securities Risk. </font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As a component of the Fund&#146;s investment in &#147;junk
  bonds,&#148; the Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in Distressed
  Securities. Such securities are the subject of bankruptcy proceedings or
  otherwise in default as to the repayment of principal and/or payment of
  interest at the time of acquisition by the Fund or are rated in the lower
  rating categories (Ca or lower by Moody&#146;s and CC or lower by S&amp;P) or
  which, if unrated, are in the judgment of Credit Suisse of equivalent
  quality. Investment in Distressed Securities is speculative and involves
  significant risk. Distressed Securities frequently do not produce income
  while they are outstanding and may require the Fund to bear certain
  extraordinary expenses in order to protect and recover its investment.
  Therefore, to the extent the Fund pursues its secondary objective of capital
  appreciation through investment in Distressed Securities, the Fund&#146;s ability
  to achieve current income for shareholders may be diminished. See &#147;Special
  Considerations and Risk Factors &#151; Distressed Securities.&#148;</font></p>

  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><i><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-style:italic;">Credit Risk. </font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Credit risk is the risk
  that one or more of the Fund&#146;s investments in debt securities or other
  instruments will decline in price, or fail to pay interest, liquidation value
  or principal when due, because the issuer of the obligation or the issuer of
  a reference security experiences an actual or perceived decline in its
  financial status. In addition to the credit risks associated with high yield
  securities, the Fund could also lose money if the issuer of other debt
  obligations, or the counterparty to a derivatives contract, repurchase
  agreement, loan of portfolio securities or other obligation, is, or is
  perceived to be, unable or unwilling to make timely principal and/or interest
  payments, or to otherwise honor its obligations. The downgrade of a security
  may further decrease its value. See &#147;Special Considerations and Risk Factors

  at historically low levels. The prices of long-term debt obligations
  generally fluctuate more than prices of short-term debt obligations as
  interest rates change. During periods of rising interest rates, the average
  life of certain types of securities may be extended due to slower than
  expected payments. This may lock in a below market yield, increase the
  security&#146;s duration and reduce the security&#146;s value. The Fund&#146;s use of
  leverage will tend to increase interest rate risk.</font></p>
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Investments
  in floating rate debt instruments, although generally less sensitive to
  interest rate changes than longer duration fixed rate instruments, may
  nevertheless decline in value in response to rising interest rates if, for
  example, the rates at which they pay interest do not rise as much, or as
  quickly, as market interest rates in general. Conversely, floating rate
  instruments will not generally increase in value if interest rates decline.
  Inverse floating rate debt securities may also exhibit greater price
  volatility than a fixed rate debt obligation with similar credit quality. To
  the extent the Fund holds floating rate instruments, a decrease (or, in the
  case of inverse floating rate securities, an increase) in market interest
  rates will adversely affect the income received from such securities and the
  net asset value of the Fund&#146;s common shares. See &#147;Special Considerations and
  Risk Factors &#151; Interest Rate Risk.&#148;</font></p>

  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><i><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-style:italic;">Leverage
  Risk. </font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund currently leverages through borrowings
  from a credit facility. The use of leverage, which can be described as
  exposure to changes in price at a ratio greater than the amount of equity
  invested, through borrowings or other forms of market exposure, magnifies
  both the favorable and unfavorable effects of price movements in the
  investments made by the Fund. Insofar as the Fund continues to employ
  leverage in its investment operations, the Fund will be subject to
  substantial risks of loss.</font></p>
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Therefore,
  if the market value of the Fund&#146;s investment portfolio declines, any leverage
  will result in a greater decrease in net asset value to common shareholders
  than if the Fund were not leveraged. Such greater net asset value decrease
  will also tend to cause a greater decline in the market price for the common
  shares. Further, if at any time while the Fund has leverage outstanding it
  does not meet applicable asset coverage requirements (as discussed below), it
  may be required to suspend distributions to common shareholders until the
  requisite asset coverage is restored. Any such suspension might impair the
  ability of the Fund to meet the regulated investment company (&#147;RIC&#148;)
  distribution requirements and to avoid Fund-level U.S. federal income and/or
  excise taxes.</font></p>
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As
  noted above, the Fund currently leverages through borrowings from a credit
  facility. The Fund has entered into a revolving credit agreement (the &#147;Credit
  Agreement&#148;) with State Street to borrow up to the least of:
  (a)&nbsp;$75,000,000; (b)&nbsp;an amount that is no greater than 30% of the
  Fund&#146;s total assets minus the sum of liabilities (other than aggregate
  indebtedness constituting leverage); and (c)&nbsp;the Borrowing Base as
  defined in the Credit Agreement. Such borrowings constitute financial
  leverage. The Credit Agreement contains customary covenant, negative covenant
  and default provisions, including covenants that limit the Fund&#146;s ability to
  incur additional debt or consolidate or merge into or with any person, other
  than as permitted, or sell, lease or otherwise transfer, directly or
  indirectly, all or substantially all of its assets. In addition, the Fund
  agreed not to purchase assets not contemplated by the investment policies and
  restrictions in effect when the Credit Agreement became effective.

  Securities Risk.</font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;"> Investing in securities of foreign entities and
  securities denominated in foreign currencies involves certain risks not
  involved in domestic investments, including, but not limited to, fluctuations
  in foreign exchange rates, future foreign political and economic
  developments, different legal and accounting systems and the possible
  imposition of exchange controls or other foreign governmental laws or
  restrictions. Securities prices in different countries are subject to
  different economic, financial, political and social factors. Since the Fund
  may invest in securities denominated or quoted in currencies other than the
  U.S. dollar, changes in foreign currency exchange rates may affect the value
  of securities in the Fund and the unrealized appreciation or depreciation of
  investments. Currencies of certain countries may be volatile and therefore
  may affect the value of securities denominated in such currencies. The Fund
  may, but is not obligated to, engage in certain transactions to hedge the currency-related
  risks of investing in non-U.S. dollar denominated securities. In addition,
  with respect to certain foreign countries, there is the possibility of
  expropriation of assets, confiscatory taxation, difficulty in obtaining or
  enforcing a court judgment, economic, political or social instability or
  diplomatic developments that could affect investments in those countries.
  Moreover, individual foreign economies may differ favorably or unfavorably
  from the U.S. economy in such respects as growth of gross domestic product,
  rates of inflation, capital reinvestment, resources, self-sufficiency and
  balance of payments position. Certain foreign investments also may be subject
  to foreign withholding taxes. These risks often are heightened for
  investments in smaller, emerging capital markets. See &#147;Special Considerations
  and Risk Factors &#151; Foreign Securities Risk.&#148;</font></p>

  credit default swap agreements, which may have as reference obligations one
  or more debt securities or an index of such securities. In a credit default
  swap, one party (the &#147;protection buyer&#148;) is obligated to pay the other party
  (the &#147;protection seller&#148;) a stream of payments over the term of the contract,
  provided that no credit event, such as a default or, in some instances, a
  downgrade in credit rating, occurs on the reference obligation. If a credit
  event occurs, the protection seller must generally pay the protection buyer
  the &#147;par value&#148; (the agreed-upon notional value) of the referenced debt obligation
  in exchange for an equal face amount of deliverable reference obligations.</font></p>

  counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract and
  would not recover any of those payments if no credit event were to occur.
  However, if a credit event occurs, the Fund as a protection buyer has the
  right to deliver the referenced debt obligations or a specified amount of
  cash, depending upon the terms of the swap, and receive the par value of such
  debt obligations from the counterparty protection seller. As a protection
  seller, the Fund would receive fixed payments throughout the term of the
  contract if no credit event occurs. If a </font></p>

  (e.g., bonds which defaulted), plus the periodic payments previously
  received, may be less than the par value of the obligation, or cash received,

  protection seller would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because it
  will have investment exposure to the notional amount of the swap.</font></p>

  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Credit
  default swap agreements are subject to greater risk than a direct investment
  in the reference obligation. Like all swap agreements, credit default swaps
  are subject to liquidity, credit and counterparty risks. In addition,
  collateral posting requirements are individually negotiated and there is no
  regulatory requirement that a counterparty post collateral to secure its
  obligations under a credit default swap. Furthermore, there is no requirement
  that a party be informed in advance when a credit default swap agreement is
  sold. Accordingly, the Fund may have difficulty identifying the party
  responsible for payment of its claims. The notional value of credit default
  swaps with respect to a particular investment is often larger than the total
  par value of such investment outstanding and, in event of a default, there
  may be difficulties in making the required deliveries of the reference
  investments, possibly delaying payments.</font></p>
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
  market for credit default swaps has become more volatile recently as the
  creditworthiness of certain counterparties has been questioned and/or
  downgraded. If a counterparty&#146;s credit becomes significantly impaired,
  multiple requests for collateral posting in a short period of time could
  increase the risk that the Fund may not receive adequate collateral. Credit
  default swaps are not currently traded on any securities exchange. The Fund
  generally may exit its obligations under a credit default swap only by
  terminating the contract and paying applicable breakage fees, or by entering
  into an offsetting credit default swap position, which may cause the Fund to
  incur more losses. See &#147;Special Considerations and Risk Factors &#151; Credit
  Default Swaps Risk.&#148;</font></p>

  Risk.</font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;"> The Fund will be subject to credit risk with respect to the
  counterparties to the derivative contracts purchased or sold by the Fund.
  Recently, several broker-dealers and other financial institutions have
  experienced extreme financial difficulty, sometimes resulting in bankruptcy
  of the institution. Although the Investment Adviser monitors the
  creditworthiness of the Fund&#146;s counterparties, there can be no assurance that
  the Fund&#146;s counterparties will not experience similar difficulties, possibly
  resulting in losses to the Fund. If a counterparty becomes bankrupt, or
  otherwise fails to perform its obligations under a derivative contract due to
  financial difficulties, the Fund may experience significant delays in
  obtaining any recovery under the derivative contract in a bankruptcy or other
  reorganization proceeding. The Fund may obtain only a limited recovery or may
  obtain no recovery in such circumstances. See &#147;Special Considerations and
  Risk Factors &#151; Counterparty Risk.&#148;</font></p>

  readily available market exists or are otherwise considered illiquid. The
  Fund may not be able readily to dispose of such securities at prices that
  approximate those at which the Fund could sell such securities if they were
  more widely traded and, as result of such illiquidity, the Fund may have to
  sell other investments or engage in borrowing transactions if necessary to
  raise cash to meet its obligations. Illiquid securities generally trade at a
  discount. See &#147;Special Considerations and Risk Factors &#151; Illiquid Securities

  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Shares
  of closed-end investment companies frequently trade at a discount from their
  net asset values. This characteristic is a risk separate and distinct from
  the risk that the Fund&#146;s net asset value could decrease as a result of its
  investment activities and may be greater for investors expecting to sell
  their Shares in a relatively short period of time following completion of the
  Offer. The net asset value of the Shares will be reduced immediately
  following the Offer as a result of the payment of certain offering costs.
  Although the value of the Fund&#146;s net assets is generally considered by market
  participants in determining whether to purchase or sell Shares, whether
  investors will realize gains or losses upon the sale of the Shares will
  depend entirely upon whether the market price of the Shares at the time of
  sale is above or below the investor&#146;s purchase price for the Shares. Because
  the market price of the Shares will be determined by factors such as net
  asset value, dividend and distribution levels and their stability (which will
  in turn be affected by levels of dividend and interest payments by the Fund&#146;s
  portfolio holdings, the timing and success of the Fund&#146;s investment
  strategies, regulations affecting the timing and character of Fund
  distributions, Fund expenses and other factors), supply of and demand for the
  Shares, trading volume of the Shares, general market, interest rate and

  Fund cannot predict whether the Shares will trade at, below or above net

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
example set forth above assumes reinvestment of all dividends and distributions

above and the assumption in the example of a 5% annual return are required by
the SEC regulations applicable to all management investment companies. The
example and fee table should not be considered a representation of past or
future expenses or annual rates of return. Actual expenses or annual rates of
return may be greater or lesser than those assumed for purposes of the example
and fee table. In addition, while the example assumes reinvestment of all
dividends and distributions at NAV, participants in the Fund&#146;s automatic
dividend reinvestment plan may receive Shares purchased or issued at a price or
value different from NAV. See &#147;Dividends and Distributions; Automatic Dividend
Reinvestment Plan.&#148;</font></p>

Total investment return at market value is based on changes in the market price
at which the fund&#146;s shares traded on the stock exchange during the period and
assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions, if any, at actual prices
pursuant to the fund&#146;s dividend reinvestment program. Because the fund&#146;s shares
trade in the stock market based on investor demand, the fund may trade at a
price higher or lower than its net asset value. Therefore, returns are
calculated based on share price and net asset value.</font></p>

Total investment return at market value is based on changes in the market price

reinvestment of dividends and distributions, if any, at actual prices pursuant
to the fund&#146;s dividend reinvestment program. Because the fund&#146;s shares trade in
the stock market based on investor demand, the fund may trade at a price higher
or lower than its net asset value. Therefore, returns are calculated based on

the Offer is extended, until a comparable number of business days before the
final Expiration Date). In such case, a Rightholder will need to instruct his
or her broker to sell any unexercised Rights in time for the broker to execute
the transaction by the close of trading on [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;],
2010, or provide instructions to the Subscription Agent by 4&nbsp;p.m. on

any unexercised Rights.&#160; [Rights that are

in the event that the Fund&#146;s per share net asset value is at or below the

Fund believes that issuance of transferable Rights to shareholders as of the
Record Date, which themselves may have realizable value, will afford non-exercising
shareholders the potential to receive a cash payment upon sale of such Rights.

level of dilution of their interest in the Fund than shareholders who do. See

Board of Trustees of the Fund (the &#147;Board&#148;) and Credit Suisse Asset Management,
LLC, the Fund&#146;s investment adviser (&#147;Credit Suisse&#148; or the &#147;Investment
Adviser&#148;), have determined that it would be in the best interests of the Fund
and its shareholders to increase the assets of the Fund in order to more fully
take advantage of current and prospective investment opportunities. The Board
and the Investment Adviser believe the current market environment offers the
Fund opportunities to deploy additional capital to take advantage of attractive
investment opportunities and seek to enhance the Fund&#146;s future risk-adjusted

[Record Date Shareholders] who have exercised all the Rights initially issued
to them and who wish to acquire more than the number of Shares for which the
Rights held by them are exercisable. [Record Date Shareholders] who exercise
all the Rights initially issued to them will be asked to indicate on their
Subscription Certificates how many Shares they are willing to acquire pursuant
to the Over-Subscription Privilege. If sufficient Primary Subscription Shares
remain as a result of unexercised Rights, all over-subscription requests will
be honored in full. If sufficient Primary Subscription Shares are not available
to honor all over-subscription requests, the available Primary Subscription
Shares will be allocated among those [Record Date Shareholders] who

Employee Plan</font></b></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Special
considerations apply with respect to shareholders of the Fund that are
tax-deferral arrangements such as plans qualified under Section&nbsp;401(a)&nbsp;of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (&#147;Code&#148;) (including retirement
and 401(k)&nbsp;plans and Keogh plans of self-employed individuals), individual
retirement accounts under Section&nbsp;408(a)&nbsp;of the Code (&#147;IRAs&#148;), Roth IRAs
under section 408A of the Code, and custodial accounts under Section&nbsp;403(b)&nbsp;of
the Code (collectively, &#147;Plans&#148;). For example, additional contributions to a
Plan (other than permitted rollover contributions or trustee-to-trustee
transfers from other Plans) in order to exercise Rights, when taken together
with other contributions made to the Plan, may exceed limits under the Code,
resulting in (among other things) excise taxes for excess or nondeductible
contributions or the Plan&#146;s loss of its tax-favored status.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Due
to the complexity of the foregoing rules&nbsp;and the taxes, penalties, and
potential liability for noncompliance, shareholders which are Plans should
consult with their counsel and other advisors before their exercise or transfer
of Rights.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
following discussion summarizes the principal federal income tax consequences
of the Offer to a Rightholder that receives a Right in the Offering or
purchases a Right from another Rightholder. It is based upon the Code, U.S.
Treasury regulations,&nbsp;Internal Revenue Service rulings and judicial
decisions in effect on the date of this prospectus, all of which may be subject
to change or differing interpretation, possibly with retroactive effect. This
discussion does not address all federal income tax aspects of the Offer that
may be relevant to a particular Rightholder in light of his or her individual
circumstances or to Rightholders subject to special treatment under the Code
(such as insurance companies, financial institutions, tax-exempt entities,
dealers in securities or traders electing mark-to-market treatment,
partnerships and other entities treated as pass-through entities for federal
income tax purposes, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment
companies, Rightholders with functional currencies other than the U.S. Dollar,
S corporations, Rightholders subject to the alternative minimum tax,
governments and their agencies and instrumentalities, foreign corporations, and
persons who are not citizens or residents of the United States), and it does
not address any state, local or foreign tax consequences. Accordingly, each
Rightholder should consult his or her own tax advisor as to the specific tax
consequences of the Offer for him or her. Each Rightholder should also review
the discussion of certain tax considerations affecting the Fund and its
shareholders set forth under &#147;Federal Income Taxation&#148; below and under &#147;Tax
Status&#148; in the SAI.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund&#146;s primary investment objective is to seek high current income. The Fund
will also seek capital appreciation as a secondary objective to the extent
consistent with its objective of seeking high current income. The Fund is
designed for investors willing to assume additional risk in return primarily
for the potential for high current income and secondarily capital appreciation.
The Fund is not intended to be a complete investment program and there can be
no assurance that the Fund will achieve its objectives.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under normal market
conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its total assets in fixed
income securities of U.S. issuers rated below investment grade quality (lower
than Baa by Moody&#146;s or lower than BBB by S&amp;P or comparably rated by another
nationally recognized rating agency) or in unrated income securities that
Credit Suisse determines to be of comparable quality. Securities rated lower
than Baa by Moody&#146;s and lower than BBB by S&amp;P are commonly known as &#147;junk
bonds.&#148; The Fund will generally not invest in securities rated at the time of
investment in the lowest rating categories (Ca or below for Moody&#146;s and CC or
below for S&amp;P) but may continue to hold securities which are subsequently
downgraded. However, it has authority to invest in securities rated as low as C
and D by Moody&#146;s and S&amp;P, respectively.</font></p>

investment in &#147;junk bonds,&#148; the Fund may also invest up to 20% of its total
assets in Distressed Securities. The Fund may invest up to 30% of its total
assets in securities of issuers domiciled outside the United States or that are
denominated in various foreign currencies and multinational currency
units.&#160; The Fund may invest up to 20% of
its assets in credit default swap agreements.</font></p>

and in the future expects to continue to utilize leverage through borrowings,
including the issuance of debt securities, or through other transactions, such
as reverse repurchase agreements, which have the effect of leverage. The Fund
may use leverage up to 33 1/3% of its total assets (including the amount
obtained through leverage). The Fund generally will not utilize leverage if it
anticipates that the Fund&#146;s leveraged capital structure would result in a lower
return to shareholders than that obtained over time with an unleveraged capital
structure. Use of leverage creates an opportunity for increased income and
capital appreciation for shareholders but also creates special risks. There can
be no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be successful during any period
in which it is employed. See &#147;Use of Leverage.&#148;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund will seek its secondary
objective of capital appreciation by investing in securities that Credit Suisse
expects may appreciate in value as a result of favorable developments affecting
the business or prospects of the issuer which may improve the issuer&#146;s
financial condition and credit rating or as a result of declines in long-term
interest rates.</font></p>

Fund may implement various temporary &#147;defensive&#148; strategies at times when
Credit Suisse determines that conditions in the markets make pursuing the
Fund&#146;s basic investment strategy inconsistent with the best interests of
shareholders. These strategies may include investing less than 80% of its total
assets in lower grade income securities by investing in higher quality debt
and/or money market instruments.</font></p>

in bonds, debentures, notes, other debt instruments, convertible bonds and
preferred stocks. The Fund&#146;s portfolio securities may have fixed or variable
rates of interest and may include zero coupon securities, payment-in-kind
securities or other deferred payment securities, preferred stock, convertible
debt obligations and convertible preferred stock, units consisting of debt or
preferred stock with warrants or other equity features, participation interests
in, or assignments of, commercial loans, government securities, stripped
securities, commercial paper and other short-term debt obligations. The issuers
of the Fund&#146;s portfolio securities may include domestic and foreign corporations,
partnerships, trusts or similar entities, and governmental entities or their
political subdivisions, agencies or instrumentalities. The Fund may invest in
companies in, or governments of, developing countries. In connection with its
investments in corporate debt securities, or restructuring of investments owned
by the Fund, the Fund may receive warrants or other non-income producing equity
securities. The Fund may retain such securities, including equity shares
received upon conversion of convertible securities, until Credit Suisse
determines it is appropriate in light of current market conditions to dispose
of such securities.</font></p>

quality (lower than Baa by Moody&#146;s or lower than BBB by S&amp;P or comparably
rated by another rating agency). Such securities are considered to have
speculative elements, with higher vulnerability to default than corporate
securities with higher ratings. See &#147;Appendix A &#151; Description of Ratings&#148; in
the SAI for additional information concerning rating categories of Moody&#146;s and
S&amp;P.&#160; Subsequent to its purchase by
the Fund, an issue of securities may cease to be rated or its rating may be
reduced below the minimum required for purchase by the Fund.&#160; Neither event will require sale of such

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Lower grade securities,
though high yielding, are characterized by high risk. See &#147;Special
Considerations and Risk Factors &#151; Lower Grade Securities Risk.&#148;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Bond prices generally are
inversely related to interest rate changes; however, bond price volatility also
is inversely related to coupon. Accordingly, lower grade securities may be
relatively less sensitive to interest rate changes than higher quality
securities of comparable maturity, because of their higher coupon. This higher
coupon is what the investor receives in return for bearing greater credit risk.
The higher credit risk associated with lower grade securities potentially will
have a greater effect on the value of such securities than may be the case with
higher quality issues of comparable maturity, and will be a substantial factor
in the Fund&#146;s relative Share price volatility.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The ratings of Moody&#146;s,
S&amp;P and the other rating agencies represent their opinions as to the
quality of the obligations which they undertake to rate. Ratings are relative
and subjective and, although ratings may be useful in evaluating the safety of
interest and principal payments, they do not evaluate the market value risk of
such obligations. Although these ratings may be an initial criterion for selection
of portfolio investments, Credit Suisse also will evaluate these securities and
the ability of the issuers of such securities to pay interest and principal. To
the extent that the Fund invests in lower grade securities that have not been
rated by a rating agency, the Fund&#146;s ability to achieve its investment
objectives will be more dependent on Credit Suisse&#146;s credit analysis than would
be the case when the Fund invests in rated securities.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund may also invest in
zero coupon, pay-in-kind or deferred payment lower grade securities. Zero
coupon securities are securities that are sold at a discount to par value and
on which interest payments are not made during the life of the security. Upon
maturity, the holder is entitled to receive the par value of the security.
While interest payments are not made on such securities, holders of such
securities are deemed annually to have received &#147;phantom income.&#148; Because the
Fund will distribute this &#147;phantom income&#148; to shareholders, to the extent that
shareholders elect to receive dividends in cash rather than reinvesting such
dividends in additional Shares, the Fund will have fewer assets with which to
purchase income-producing securities. The Fund accrues income with respect to
these securities prior to the receipt of cash payments. Pay-in-kind securities
are securities that have interest payable by delivery of additional securities.
Upon maturity, the holder is entitled to receive the aggregate par value of the
securities. Deferred payment securities are securities that remain zero coupon
securities until a predetermined date, at which time the stated coupon rate
becomes effective and interest becomes payable at regular intervals. Zero
coupon, pay-in-kind and deferred payment securities are subject to greater fluctuation
in value and may have less liquidity in the event of adverse market conditions
than comparably rated securities paying cash interest at regular interest
payment periods.</font></p>

be converted at either a stated price or stated rate into underlying shares of
common stock. Convertible securities have characteristics similar to both
fixed-income and equity securities. Convertible securities generally are
subordinated to other similar but non-convertible securities of the same
issuer, although convertible bonds, as corporate debt obligations, enjoy
seniority in right of payment to all equity securities, and convertible
preferred stock is senior to shares of common stock of the same issuer. Because
of the subordination feature, however, convertible securities typically have
lower ratings than similar non-convertible securities.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Although to a lesser extent
than with fixed-income securities, the market value of convertible securities
tends to decline as interest rates increase and, conversely, tends to increase
as interest rates decline. In addition, because of the conversion feature, the
market value of convertible securities tends to vary with fluctuations in the
market value of the underlying common stock. As the market price of the
underlying common stock declines, convertible securities tend to trade
increasingly on a yield basis, and so may not experience market value declines
to the same extent as the underlying common stock. When the market price of the
underlying common stock increases, the prices of the convertible securities
tend to rise as a reflection of the value of the underlying common stock. While
no securities investments are without risk, investments in convertible
securities generally entail less risk than investments in common stock of the
same issuer.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Convertible securities
provide for a stable stream of income with generally higher yields than common
stock and offer the potential for capital appreciation through the conversion
feature, which enables the holder to benefit from increases in the market price
of the underlying common stock. In return, however, convertible securities
generally offer lower interest or dividend yields than non-convertible
securities of similar quality.</font></p>

company&#146;s assets should the company&#146;s assets be liquidated. While most
preferred stocks pay a dividend, the Fund may purchase preferred stock where
the issuer has failed to pay, or is in danger of failing to pay, the dividends on
such preferred stock, or may purchase preferred stock that pays a dividend in
kind.</font></p>

denominated in U.S. and foreign currencies that are originated, negotiated and
structured by a syndicate of lenders (&#147;Co-Lenders&#148;) consisting of commercial
banks, thrift institutions, insurance companies, financial companies or other
financial institutions one or more of which administer the security on behalf
of the syndicate (the &#147;Agent Bank&#148;). Co-Lenders may sell such securities to
third parties called &#147;Participants.&#148; The Fund may invest in such securities
either by participating as a Co-Lender at origination or by acquiring an
interest in the security from a Co-Lender or a Participant (collectively, &#147;participation
interests&#148;). Co-Lenders and Participants interposed between the Fund and the
corporate borrower (the &#147;Borrower&#148;), together with Agent Banks, are referred to
herein as &#147;Intermediate Participants.&#148; The Fund also may purchase a
participation interest in a portion of the rights of an Intermediate
Participant, which would not establish any direct relationship between the Fund
and the Borrower. In such cases, the Fund would be required to rely on the
Intermediate Participant that sold the participation interest not only for the
enforcement of the Fund&#146;s rights against the Borrower but also for the receipt
and processing of payments due to the Fund under the security. Because it may
be necessary to assert through an Intermediate Participant such rights as may
exist against the Borrower, in the event the Borrower fails to pay principal
and interest when due, the Fund may be subject to delays, expenses and risks
that are greater than those that would be involved if the Fund would enforce
its rights directly against the Borrower. Moreover, under the terms of a
participation interest, the Fund may be regarded as a creditor of the
Intermediate Participant (rather than of the Borrower), so that the Fund may
also be subject to the risk that the Intermediate Participant may become
insolvent. Similar risks may arise with respect to the Agent Bank if, for
example, assets held by the Agent Bank for the benefit of the Fund were
determined by the appropriate regulatory authority or court to be subject to
the claims of the Agent Bank&#146;s creditors. In such case, the Fund might incur
certain costs and delays in realizing payment in connection with the
participation interest or suffer a loss of principal and/or interest. Further,
in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Borrower, the obligation of
the Borrower to repay the loan may be subject to certain defenses that can be
asserted by such Borrower as a result of improper conduct by the Agent Bank or
Intermediate Participant.</font></p>

</font></b><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund may enter into credit default swap agreements either as a
buyer or a seller.&#160; The Fund may buy a
credit default swap to attempt to mitigate the risk of default or credit
quality deterioration in one or more individual holdings or in a segment of the
fixed income securities market.&#160; The Fund
may sell a credit default swap in an attempt to gain exposure to an underlying
issuer&#146;s credit quality characteristics without investing directly in that
issuer.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
&#147;buyer&#148; in a credit default swap is obligated to pay the &#147;seller&#148; an upfront
payment or a periodic stream of payments over the term of the agreement,
provided that no credit event on an underlying reference obligation has
occurred.&#160; If a credit event occurs, the
seller must pay the buyer the full notional value, or &#147;par value,&#148; of the
reference obligation in exchange for the reference obligation.&#160; As a result of counterparty risk, certain
credit default swap agreements may involve greater risks than if the Fund had
invested in the reference obligation directly.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If
the Fund is a buyer and no credit event occurs, the cost to the Fund is the
premium paid with respect to the agreement.&#160;
If a credit event occurs, however, the Fund may elect to receive the
full notional value of the swap in exchange for an equal face amount of
deliverable obligations of the reference entity that may have little or no
value.&#160; On the other hand, the value of
any deliverable obligations paid by the Fund to the seller, coupled with the up
front or periodic payments previously received by the seller, may be less than
the full notional value the seller pays to the Fund, resulting in a loss of
value to the Fund.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If
the Fund is a seller and no credit event occurs, the Fund would generally
receive an up front payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of
the swap, which typically is between six months and three years.&#160; If a credit event occurs, however, generally
the Fund would have to pay the buyer the full notional value of the swap in
exchange for an equal face amount of deliverable obligations of the reference
entity that may have little or no value.&#160;
When the Fund acts as a seller of a credit default swap agreement it is
exposed to speculative exposure risk since, if a credit event occurs, the Fund
may be required to pay the buyer the full notional value of the contract net of
any amounts owed by the buyer related to its delivery of deliverable
obligations of the reference entity.&#160; As
a result, the Fund bears the entire risk of loss due to a decline in value of a
referenced security on a credit default swap it has sold if there is a credit
event with respect to the security.&#160; The
Fund bears the same risk as a buyer of fixed income </font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Certain
credit default swap agreements may not have liquidity beyond the counterparty
to the agreement and may be considered illiquid.&#160; Other credit default swap agreements,
however, may be considered liquid.&#160;
Moreover, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be
received under a credit default swap agreement in the event of the default or
bankruptcy of the counterparty.&#160; The Fund
will enter into swap agreements as a buyer only with counterparties that meet
certain standards of creditworthiness (generally, such counterparties would
have to be eligible counterparties under the terms of the Fund&#146;s repurchase
agreement guidelines).&#160; Credit default
swap agreements are generally valued at a price at which the counterparty to
such agreement would terminate the agreement.&#160;
As the seller of a credit default swap the Fund would be subject to
investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap.&#160; Accordingly, the Fund will segregate liquid
investments in an amount equal to the aggregate market value of the of the
credit default swaps of which it is the seller, marked to market on a daily
basis.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">When
the Fund buys or sells a credit derivative, the underlying issuer(s)&nbsp;or
obligor(s)&nbsp;as well as the counterparty to the transaction will be treated
as an issuer for purposes of complying with the Fund&#146;s issuer diversification
and industry concentration policies, absent regulatory guidance to the
contrary.&#160; The notional amount of the
credit exposure to which the Fund is subject when it sells credit protection,
plus the market value of the Fund&#146;s investments in credit derivatives and/or
premiums paid therefor as a buyer of credit derivatives, will not in the aggregate
exceed 20% of the Fund&#146;s total assets.&#160;
The Fund may, but is not required to, use credit swaps or any other
credit derivative.&#160; There is no assurance
that credit derivatives will be available at any time or, if used, that the
derivatives will be used successfully.</font></p>

Securities.&#160; </font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Variable and
floating rate securities provide for a periodic adjustment in the interest rate
paid on the obligations. The terms of such obligations must provide that
interest rates are adjusted periodically based upon an interest rate adjustment
index as provided in the respective obligations. The adjustment intervals may
be regular, and range from daily up to annually, or may be event based, such as
based on a change in the prime rate.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund may invest in
floating rate debt instruments (&#147;floaters&#148;). The interest rate on a floater is
a variable rate which is tied to another interest rate, such as a money-market
index or Treasury Bill rate. The interest rate on a floater resets
periodically, typically every six months. Because of the interest rate reset
feature, floaters provide the Fund with a certain degree of protection against
rises in interest rates, although the Fund will participate in any declines in
interest rates as well. The Fund also may invest in inverse floating rate debt
instruments (&#147;inverse floaters&#148;). The interest rate on an inverse floater
resets in the opposite direction from the market rate of interest to which the
inverse floater is indexed or inversely to a multiple of the applicable index.
An inverse floating rate security may exhibit greater price volatility than a
fixed rate obligation of similar credit quality.</font></p>

loan participations (collectively, &#147;Loans&#148;) that are senior secured floating
rate Loans.&#160; Senior Loans are made to
corporations and other non-governmental entities and issuers.&#160; Senior Loans typically hold the most senior
position in the capital structure of the issuing entity, are typically secured
with specific collateral and typically have a claim on the assets and/or stock
of the borrower that is senior to that held by subordinated debt holders and
stockholders of the borrower.&#160; The
proceeds of Senior Loans primarily are used to finance leveraged buyouts,
recapitalizations, mergers, acquisitions, stock repurchases, dividends, and, to
a lesser extent, to finance internal growth and for other corporate
purposes.&#160; Senior Loans typically have
rates of interest that are determined daily, monthly, quarterly or
semi-annually by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium or credit
spread.&#160; Base lending rates in common
usage today are primarily the London-Interbank Offered Rate (&#147;LIBOR&#148;), and
secondarily the prime rate offered by one or more major U.S. banks (the &#147;Prime
Rate&#148;) and the certificate of deposit (&#147;CD&#148;) rate or other base lending rates
used by commercial lenders.</font></p>

&#147;second lien&#148; secured floating rate Loans made by public and private
corporations and other non-governmental entities and issuers for a variety of
purposes.&#160; Second Lien Loans are second
in right of payment to one or more Senior Loans of the related borrower.&#160; Second Lien Loans typically are secured by a
second priority security interest or lien to or on specified collateral
securing the borrower&#146;s obligation under the Loan and typically have similar
protections and rights as Senior Loans.&#160;
Second Lien Loans are not (and by their terms cannot become) subordinated
in right of payment to any obligation of the related borrower other than Senior
Loans of such borrower.&#160; Second Lien
Loans, like Senior Loans, typically have adjustable floating rate interest
payments.&#160; Because Second Lien Loans are
second to Senior Loans, they present a greater degree of investment risk but
often pay interest at higher rates reflecting this additional risk.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund may also invest in
secured Loans other than Senior Loans and Second Lien Loans.&#160; Such secured Loans are made by public and
private corporations and other non-governmental entities and issuers for a
variety of purposes, and may rank lower in right of payment to one or more
Senior Loans and Second Lien Loans of the borrower.&#160; Such secured Loans typically are secured by a
lower priority security interest or lien to or on specified collateral securing
the borrower&#146;s obligation under the Loan, and typically have more subordinated
protections and rights than Senior Loans and Second Lien Loans.&#160; Secured Loans may become subordinated in
right of payment to more senior obligations of the borrower issued in the
future.&#160; Such secured Loans may have
fixed or adjustable floating rate interest payments.&#160; Because other secured Loans rank in payment
order behind Senior Loans and Second Lien Loans, they present a greater degree
of investment risk but often pay interest at higher rates reflecting this
additional risk.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Second
Lien Loans and other secured Loans generally are of below investment grade
quality.&#160; Other than their subordinated
status, Second Lien Loans and other secured Loans have many characteristics
similar to Senior Loans discussed above.&#160;
As in the case of Senior Loans, the Fund may purchase interests in
Second Lien Loans and other secured Loans through assignments or participations.</font></p>

the Fund buys, and the seller agrees to repurchase, a security at a mutually
agreed upon time and price (usually within seven days). The repurchase
agreement thereby determines the yield during the purchaser&#146;s holding period,
while the seller&#146;s obligation to repurchase is secured by the value of the
underlying security. Repurchase agreements could involve risks in the event of
a default or insolvency of the other party to the agreement, including possible
delays or restrictions upon the Fund&#146;s ability to dispose of the underlying
securities. The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with certain banks or
non-bank dealers.</font></p>

deposit, time deposits, bankers&#146; acceptances and other short-term obligations
issued by domestic banks, foreign subsidiaries or foreign branches of domestic
banks, domestic and foreign branches of foreign banks, domestic savings and
loan associations and other banking institutions. With respect to such
securities issued by foreign subsidiaries or foreign branches of domestic
banks, and domestic and foreign branches of foreign banks, the Fund may be
subject to additional investment risks.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Certificates

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Time

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Bankers&#146;
acceptances are credit instruments evidencing the obligation of a bank to pay a
draft drawn on it by a customer. These instruments reflect the obligation both
of the bank and the drawer to pay the face amount of the instrument upon
maturity. The other short-term obligations may include uninsured, direct
obligations bearing fixed, floating or variable interest rates.</font></p>

unsecured promissory notes issued to finance short-term credit needs. The
commercial paper purchased by the Fund will consist only of direct obligations
which, at the time of their purchase, are (a)&nbsp;rated not lower than Prime-1
by Moody&#146;s or A-1 by S&amp;P, (b)&nbsp;issued by companies having an
outstanding unsecured debt issue currently rated at least A3 by Moody&#146;s or A-

variable amount master demand notes, which are obligations that permit the Fund
to invest fluctuating amounts at varying rates of interest pursuant to direct
arrangements between the Fund, as lender, and the borrower. These notes permit
daily changes in the amounts borrowed. Because these obligations are direct
lending arrangements between the lender and borrower, it is not contemplated
that such instruments generally will be traded, and there generally is no
established secondary market for these obligations, although they are
redeemable at face value, plus accrued interest, at any time. Accordingly,
where these obligations are not secured by letters of credit or other credit
support arrangements, the Fund&#146;s right to redeem is dependent on the ability of
the borrower to pay principal and interest on demand. Such obligations
frequently are not rated by credit rating agencies, and the Fund may invest in
them only if at the time of </font></p>

<p align="center" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:center;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As
provided in the 1940 Act and subject to certain exceptions, the Fund may issue
debt with the condition that immediately after issuance the value of its total
assets, less certain ordinary course liabilities, exceeds 300% of the amount of
the debt outstanding.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Thus,
as noted above, the Fund may use leverage in the form of borrowings in an
amount up to 33 1/3% of the Fund&#146;s total assets (including the proceeds of such
leverage). The total leverage of the Fund is currently expected to range
between 25% and 30% of the Fund&#146;s total assets. The Fund seeks a leverage
ratio, based on a variety of factors including market conditions and the
Investment Adviser&#146;s market outlook, for which the rate of return, net of
applicable Fund expenses, on the Fund&#146;s investment portfolio investments
purchased with leverage exceeds the costs associated with such leverage.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund&#146;s borrowings under its credit facility at October&nbsp;31, 2009 equal
approximately 21% of the Fund&#146;s total assets (including the proceeds of such
leverage). The Fund&#146;s asset coverage ratio as of October&nbsp;31, 2009 was 470%.
See &#147;Special Considerations and Risk Factors&#151;Leverage Risk&#148; for a brief
description of the Fund&#146;s credit agreement with State Street Bank and Trust

the utilization of leverage in the amount of
[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]% of the Fund&#146;s total assets and an
annual interest rate of [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]%
payable on such leverage based on market rates as of the date of this
prospectus, the additional income that the Fund must earn (net of expenses) in
order to cover such leverage is [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]%. Actual
costs of leverage may be higher or lower than that assumed in the previous
example.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Following
the completion of the Offer, the Fund intends to increase the amount of
leverage outstanding. The Fund may engage in additional borrowings in order to
maintain the Fund&#146;s desired leverage ratio. Leverage creates a greater risk of
loss, as well as a potential for more gain, for the common shares than if
leverage were not used. Interest on borrowings may be at a fixed or floating
rate and generally will be based on short-term rates. The costs associated with
the Fund&#146;s use of leverage, including the issuance of such leverage and the
payment of dividends or interest on such leverage, will be borne entirely by
the holders of common shares. As long as the rate of return, net of applicable
Fund expenses, on the Fund&#146;s investment portfolio investments purchased with
leverage exceeds the costs associated with such leverage, the Fund will
generate more return or income than will be needed to pay such costs. In this
event, the excess will be available to pay higher dividends to holders of
common shares. Conversely, if the Fund&#146;s return on such assets is less than the
cost of leverage and other Fund expenses, the return to the holders of the
common shares will diminish. To the extent that the Fund uses leverage, the net
asset value and market price of the common shares and the yield to holders of
common shares will be more volatile. The Fund&#146;s leveraging strategy may not be
successful. See &#147;Special Considerations and Risk Factors&#151;Leverage Risk.&#148;</font></p>

following table is designed to illustrate the effect on the return to a holder
of the Fund&#146;s common shares of leverage in the amount of approximately
[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]% of the Fund&#146;s total assets, assuming
hypothetical annual returns of the Fund&#146;s investment portfolio of minus 10% to
plus 10%. As the table shows, leverage generally increases the return to
holders of common shares when portfolio return is positive and greater than the
cost of leverage and decreases the return when the portfolio return is negative
or less than the cost of leverage. The figures appearing in the table are
hypothetical and actual returns may be greater or less than those appearing in
the table.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">An
investment in the Shares of the Fund involves a high degree of risk. You should
carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to the other
information set forth in this Prospectus. For additional information about the
risks that may be associated with an investment in the Fund, see &#147;Investment
Policies and Techniques&#148; in the SAI.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If
you do not exercise your Rights, you will, upon the completion of the Offer,
own a smaller proportional interest in the Fund than you do now and you may
incur dilution of ownership and voting, as well as dilution of your share of
any distributions made by the Fund, as a result of the Offer. In addition, if
you do not submit a subscription request pursuant to the Over-Subscription
Privilege and the Fund issues Additional Shares, you may experience further
dilution of ownership and voting, as well as further dilution of your share of
any distributions made by the Fund.&#160;
Also, because the Subscription Price per Share may be less than the then
current NAV per Share, the completion of the Offer may result in an immediate
dilution of the net asset value per Share for all existing shareholders. Such
dilution could be substantial. If such dilution occurs, shareholders will
experience a decrease in the net asset value per Share held by them,
irrespective of whether they exercise all or any portion of their Rights. The
Fund cannot state precisely the extent of this dilution because the Fund does
not know what the NAV will be when the Offer expires, how many Rights will be
exercised or the exact expenses of the Offer.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Offer is expected to present the opportunity to invest in high yielding
securities. This expectation is based on the current market environment for
high yield debt securities, which could change in response to interest rate
levels, general economic conditions, specific industry conditions and other
factors.&#160; If the market environment for
high yield debt securities changes in a manner that adversely affects the yield
of such securities, the Offer could cause the Fund to invest in securities that
are lower yielding than those in which it is currently invested.&#160; In addition, even if the market for high
yield debt securities continues to present attractive investment opportunities,
there is no assurance that the Fund will be able to invest the proceeds of the
Offer in high yielding securities or that other potential benefits of the Offer
will be realized. The Offer could reduce the Fund&#146;s current dividend yield if
the Fund is unable to invest the proceeds of the Offer in securities that
provide a yield at least equal to the current dividend yield.</font></p>

investment in Shares is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss
of the entire principal amount that you invest. Your investment in Shares
represents an indirect investment in the securities owned by the Fund. The
value of these securities, like other market investments, may move up or down,
sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, and these fluctuations are likely to have
a greater impact on the value of the Shares during periods in which the Fund
utilizes a leveraged capital structure. If the current global economic downturn
continues into a prolonged recession or deteriorates further, the ability of
issuers of the corporate fixed-income securities and other securities in which
the Fund invests to service their obligations could be materially and adversely
affected. The </font></p>

</font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Beginning in 2007, the fixed income markets experienced a period of
extreme volatility, which has negatively impacted market liquidity conditions.
Fixed income instruments have experienced liquidity issues, increased price
volatility, credit downgrades and increased likelihood of default, although
markets stabilized and, in some cases, rallied in 2009. Securities that are
less liquid are more difficult to value and may be hard to dispose of. Domestic
and international equity markets have also been experiencing heightened
volatility and turmoil, with issuers that have exposure to the real estate,
mortgage and credit markets particularly affected. During times of market
turmoil, investors tend to look to the safety of securities issued or backed by
the U.S. Treasury, causing the prices of these securities to rise and the yield
to decline. Although markets have improved since 2008, the events of 2007 and
2008 and any continuing market upheavals may have an adverse effect on the
Fund.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><b><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-weight:bold;">Lower
Grade Securities Risk</font></b></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Lower
grade securities are regarded as being predominantly speculative as to the
issuer&#146;s ability to make payments of principal and interest. Investment in such
securities involves substantial risk. Lower grade securities are commonly
referred to as &#147;junk bonds.&#148; Issuers of lower grade securities may be highly
leveraged and may not have available to them more traditional methods of
financing. Therefore, the risks associated with acquiring the securities of such
issuers generally are greater than is the case with higher-rated securities.
For example, during an economic downturn or a sustained period of rising
interest rates, issuers of lower grade securities may be more likely to
experience financial stress, especially if such issuers are highly leveraged.
During periods of economic downturn, such issuers may not have sufficient
revenues to meet their interest payment obligations. The issuer&#146;s ability to
service its debt obligations also may be adversely affected by specific issuer
developments, the issuer&#146;s inability to meet specific projected business
forecasts or the unavailability of additional financing. Therefore, there can
be no assurance that in the future there will not exist a higher default rate
relative to the rates currently existing in the market for lower grade
securities. The risk of loss due to default by the issuer is significantly
greater for the holders of lower grade securities because such securities may
be unsecured and may be subordinate to other creditors of the issuer. Other
than with respect to Distressed Securities, discussed below, the lower grade
securities in which the Fund may invest do not include instruments which, at
the time of investment, are in default or the issuers of which are in
bankruptcy. However, there can be no assurance that such events will not occur
after the Fund purchases a particular security, in which case the Fund may
experience losses and incur costs.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Lower
grade securities frequently have call or redemption features that would permit
an issuer to repurchase the security from the Fund. If a call were exercised by
the issuer during a period of declining interest rates, the Fund is likely to
have to replace such called security with a lower yielding security, thus
decreasing the net investment income to the Fund and dividends to shareholders.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Lower
grade securities have been in the past, and may again in the future be, more
volatile than higher-rated fixed-income securities, so that adverse economic
events may have a greater impact on the prices of lower grade securities than
on higher-rated fixed income securities.&#160;
Factors adversely affecting the market value of such securities are
likely to affect adversely the Fund&#146;s net asset value. Recently, demand for
lower grade securities has increased significantly and the difference between
the yields paid by lower grade securities and investment grade bonds (i.e., the
&#147;spread&#148;) has narrowed. To the extent this differential increases, the value of
lower grade securities in the Fund&#146;s portfolio could be adversely affected.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Like
higher-rated fixed-income securities, lower grade securities generally are
purchased and sold through dealers who make a market in such securities for
their own accounts. However, there are fewer dealers in the lower grade
securities market, which market may be less liquid than the market for
higher-rated fixed-income securities, even under normal economic conditions.
Also, there may be significant disparities in the prices quoted for lower grade
securities by various dealers. As a result, during periods of high demand in
the lower grade securities market, it may be difficult to acquire lower grade
securities appropriate for investment by the Fund. Adverse economic conditions
and investor perceptions thereof (whether or not based on economic reality) may
impair liquidity in the lower grade securities market and may cause the prices
the Fund receives for its lower grade securities to be reduced. In addition,
the Fund may experience difficulty in liquidating a portion of its portfolio
when necessary to meet the Fund&#146;s liquidity needs or in response to a specific
economic event such as deterioration in the creditworthiness of the issuers.
Under such conditions, judgment may play a greater role in valuing certain of
the Fund&#146;s portfolio instruments than in the case of instruments trading in a
more liquid market. In addition, the Fund </font></p>

Distressed Securities is speculative and involves significant risk. Distressed
Securities frequently do not produce income while they are outstanding and may
require the Fund to bear certain extraordinary expenses in order to protect and
recover its investment. Therefore, to the extent the Fund pursues its secondary
objective of capital appreciation through investment in Distressed Securities,
the Fund&#146;s ability to achieve current income for shareholders may be
diminished. The Fund also will be subject to significant uncertainty as to when
and in what manner and for what value the obligations evidenced by the Distressed
Securities will eventually be satisfied (e.g., through a liquidation of the
obligor&#146;s assets, an exchange offer or plan of reorganization involving the
Distressed Securities or a payment of some amount in satisfaction of the
obligation). In addition, even if an exchange offer is made or plan of
reorganization is adopted with respect to Distressed Securities held by the
Fund, there can be no assurance that the securities or other assets received by
the Fund in connection with such exchange offer or plan of reorganization will
not have a lower value or income potential than may have been anticipated when
the investment was made. Moreover, any securities received by the Fund upon
completion of an exchange offer or plan of reorganization may be restricted as to
resale. As a result of the Fund&#146;s participation in negotiations with respect to
any exchange offer or plan of reorganization with respect to an issuer of
Distressed Securities, the Fund may be restricted from disposing of such
securities.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Credit
risk is the risk that one or more of the Fund&#146;s investments in debt securities
or other instruments will decline in price, or fail to pay interest,
liquidation value or principal when due, because the issuer of the obligation
or the issuer of a reference security experiences an actual or perceived
decline in its financial status. In addition to the credit risks associated
with high yield securities, the Fund could also lose money if the issuer of
other debt obligations, or the counterparty to a derivatives contract,
repurchase agreement, loan of portfolio securities or other obligation, is, or
is perceived to be, unable or unwilling to make timely principal and/or
interest payments, or to otherwise honor its obligations. The downgrade of a
security may further decrease its value.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Generally, when market
interest rates rise, the prices of debt obligations fall, and vice versa.
Interest rate risk is the risk that debt obligations and other instruments in
the Fund&#146;s portfolio will decline in value because of increases in market
interest rates. This risk may be particularly acute because market interest
rates are currently at historically low levels. The prices of long-term debt
obligations generally fluctuate more than prices of short-term debt obligations
as interest rates change. During periods of rising interest rates, the average
life of certain types of securities may be extended due to slower than expected
payments. This may lock in a below market yield, increase the security&#146;s
duration and reduce the security&#146;s value. The Fund&#146;s use of leverage will tend
to increase interest rate risk.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Investments
in floating rate debt instruments, although generally less sensitive to
interest rate changes than longer duration fixed rate instruments, may
nevertheless decline in value in response to rising interest rates if, for
example, the rates at which they pay interest do not rise as much, or as
quickly, as market interest rates in general. Conversely, floating rate
instruments will not generally increase in value if interest rates decline.
Inverse floating rate debt securities may also exhibit greater price volatility
than a fixed rate debt obligation with similar credit quality. To the extent
the Fund holds floating rate instruments, a decrease (or, in the case of
inverse floating rate securities, an increase) in market interest rates will
adversely affect the income received from such securities and the net asset value
of the Fund&#146;s common shares.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">investments made by the

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Therefore, if the market
value of the Fund&#146;s investment portfolio declines, any leverage will result in
a greater decrease in net asset value to common shareholders than if the Fund
were not leveraged. Such greater net asset value decrease will also tend to
cause a greater decline in the market price for the common shares. Further, if
at any time while the Fund has leverage outstanding it does not meet applicable
asset coverage requirements (as discussed below), it may be required to suspend
distributions to common shareholders until the requisite asset coverage is
restored. Any such suspension might impair the ability of the Fund to meet the
RIC distribution requirements and to avoid Fund-level U.S. federal income
and/or excise taxes.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As noted above, the Fund
currently leverages through borrowings from a credit facility. The Fund has
entered into a Credit Agreement with State Street to borrow up to the least of:
(a)&nbsp;$75,000,000; (b)&nbsp;an amount that is no greater than 30% of the
Fund&#146;s total assets minus the sum of liabilities (other than aggregate
indebtedness constituting leverage); and (c)&nbsp;the Borrowing Base as defined
in the Credit Agreement.&#160; Such borrowings
constitute financial leverage. The Credit Agreement contains customary
covenant, negative covenant and default provisions, including covenants that limit
the Fund&#146;s ability to incur additional debt or consolidate or merge into or
with any person, other than as permitted, or sell, lease or otherwise transfer,
directly or indirectly, all or substantially all of its assets. In addition,
the Fund agreed not to purchase assets not contemplated by the investment
policies and restrictions in effect when the Credit Agreement became effective.
Furthermore, the Fund may not incur additional debt from any other party,
except for in limited circumstances (<i>e.g.</i>,
in the ordinary course of business). Such restrictions shall apply only so long
as the Credit Agreement remains in effect.</font></p>

the Credit Agreement is not convertible into any other securities of the Fund.
Outstanding amounts would be payable at maturity or such earlier times as
required by the Credit Agreement. The Fund may be required to prepay
outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement in the event of the occurrence
of certain events of default. The Fund is expected to indemnify the lenders
under the Credit Agreement against certain liabilities they may incur in
connection with the Credit Agreement. The Fund is required to pay commitment
fees under the terms of the Credit Agreement. With the use of borrowings, there
is a risk that the interest rates paid by the Fund on the amount it borrows
will be higher than the return on the Fund&#146;s investments. The credit facility
with State Street may in the future be replaced or refinanced by one or more
credit facilities having substantially different terms, or the Fund may be unable
to renew or replace its credit facility upon the termination of the current
facility, possibly requiring it to sell portfolio securities at times or prices
that are disadvantageous. Any of these situations could adversely impact income
or total return to shareholders.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund must comply with investment quality, diversification and other guidelines
established by the credit facility. The Fund does not anticipate that such
guidelines will have a material adverse effect on the Fund&#146;s common
shareholders or its ability to achieve its investment objectives.</font></p>

including, but not limited to, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, future

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Developing
countries have economic structures that are generally less diverse and mature,
and political systems that are less stable, than those of developed countries.
The markets of developing countries may be more volatile than the markets of
more mature economies; however, such markets may provide higher rates of return
to investors. Many developing countries providing investment opportunities for
the Fund have experienced substantial, and in some periods extremely high,
rates of inflation for many years. Inflation and rapid fluctuations in
inflation rates have had and may continue to have adverse effects on the
economies and securities markets of certain of these countries.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Since
the Fund may invest in securities denominated or quoted in currencies other
than the U.S. dollar, changes in foreign currency exchange rates may affect the
value of securities in the Fund and the unrealized appreciation or depreciation
of investments.&#160; Currencies of certain
countries may be volatile and therefore may affect the value of securities
denominated in such currencies. The Fund may, but is not obligated to, engage
in certain transactions to hedge the currency-related risks of investing in
non-U.S. dollar denominated securities. In addition, with respect to certain
foreign countries, there is the possibility of expropriation of assets,
confiscatory taxation, difficulty in obtaining or enforcing a court judgment,
economic, political or social instability or diplomatic developments that could
affect investments in those countries. Moreover, individual foreign economies
may differ favorably or unfavorably from the U.S. economy in such respects as
growth of gross domestic product, capital reinvestment, resources,
self-sufficiency and balance of payments position. Certain foreign investments
also may be subject to foreign withholding taxes. These risks often are
heightened for investments in smaller, emerging capital markets.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund may enter into
credit default swap agreements, which may have as reference obligations one or
more debt securities or an index of such securities. In a credit default swap,
one party (the &#147;protection buyer&#148;) is obligated to pay the other party (the
&#147;protection seller&#148;) a stream of payments over the term of the contract,
provided that no credit event, such as a default or, in some instances, a
downgrade in credit rating, occurs on the reference obligation. If a credit
event occurs, the protection seller must generally pay the protection buyer the
&#147;par value&#148; (the agreed-upon notional value) of the referenced debt obligation
in exchange for an equal face amount of deliverable reference obligations.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund may be either the
protection buyer or protection seller in a credit default swap. If the Fund is
a protection buyer, the Fund would pay the counterparty a periodic stream of
payments over the term of the contract and would not recover any of those
payments if no credit event were to occur. However, if a credit event occurs,
the Fund as a protection buyer has the right to deliver the referenced debt
obligations or a specified amount of cash, depending upon the terms of the
swap, and receive the par value of such debt obligations from the counterparty
protection seller. As a protection seller, the Fund would receive fixed
payments throughout the term of the contract if no credit event occurs. If a
credit event occurs, however, the value of the obligation received by the Fund
(e.g., bonds which defaulted), plus the periodic payments previously received,
may be less than the par value of the obligation, or cash received, resulting
in a loss to the protection seller. Furthermore, the Fund as a protection
seller would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because it will have
investment exposure to the notional amount of the swap.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Credit default swap
agreements are subject to greater risk than a direct investment in the
reference obligation. Like all swap agreements, credit default swaps are
subject to liquidity, credit and counterparty risks. In addition, collateral
posting requirements are individually negotiated and there is no regulatory
requirement that a counterparty post collateral to secure its obligations under
a credit default swap. Furthermore, there is no requirement that a party be
informed in advance when a credit default swap agreement is sold. Accordingly,
the Fund may have difficulty identifying the party responsible for payment of
its claims. The notional value of credit default swaps with respect to a
particular investment is often larger than the total par value of such
investment outstanding and, in event of a default, there may be difficulties in
making the required deliveries of the reference investments, possibly delaying
payments.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
market for credit default swaps has become more volatile recently as the
creditworthiness of certain counterparties has been questioned and/or
downgraded. If a counterparty&#146;s credit becomes significantly impaired, multiple
requests for collateral posting in a short period of time could increase the
risk that the Fund may not receive adequate collateral. Credit default swaps
are not currently traded on any securities exchange. The Fund generally may
exit its obligations under a credit default swap only by terminating the
contract and paying applicable breakage fees, or by entering into an offsetting
credit default swap position, which may cause the Fund to incur more losses.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund will be subject to credit risk with respect to the counterparties to the
derivative contracts purchased or sold by the Fund. Recently, several
broker-dealers and other financial institutions have experienced extreme
financial difficulty, sometimes resulting in bankruptcy of the institution.
Although the Investment Adviser monitors the creditworthiness of the Fund&#146;s
counterparties, there can be no assurance that the Fund&#146;s counterparties will
not experience similar difficulties, possibly resulting in losses to the Fund.
If a counterparty becomes bankrupt, or otherwise fails to perform its
obligations under a derivative contract due to financial difficulties, the Fund
may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery under the
derivative contract in a bankruptcy or other reorganization proceeding. The
Fund may obtain only a limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such
circumstances.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund may invest in securities for which no readily available market exists or
are otherwise considered illiquid. The Fund may not be able readily to dispose
of such securities at prices that approximate those at which the Fund could
sell such securities if they were more widely traded and, as a result of such
illiquidity, the Fund may have to sell other investments or engage in borrowing
transactions if necessary to raise cash to meet its obligations.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If
interest rates fall, the principal on bonds and loans held by the Fund may be
paid earlier than expected. If this happens, the proceeds from a prepaid
security may be reinvested by the Fund in securities bearing lower interest
rates, resulting in a possible decline in the Fund&#146;s income and distributions
to shareholders.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Preferred
stocks are unique securities that combine some of the characteristics of both
common stocks and bonds. Preferred stocks generally pay a fixed rate of return
and are sold on the basis of current yield, like bonds. However, because they
are equity securities, preferred stocks provide equity ownership of a company,
and the income is paid in the form of dividends. Preferred stocks typically
have a yield advantage over common stocks as well as comparably-rated
fixed-income investments. Preferred stocks are typically subordinated to bonds
and other debt instruments in a company&#146;s capital structure, in terms of
priority to corporate income, and therefore will be subject to greater credit
risk than those debt instruments. Unlike interest payments on debt securities,
preferred stock dividends are payable only if declared by the issuer&#146;s board of
directors. Preferred stock also may be subject to optional or mandatory
redemption provisions.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
risks associated with Senior Loans of below investment grade quality are
similar to the risks of bonds rated below investment grade, although Senior
Loans are typically senior and secured in contrast to bonds rated below
investment grade, which are generally subordinated and unsecured.&#160; Senior Loans&#146; higher standing has
historically resulted in generally higher recoveries in the event of a
corporate reorganization.&#160; In addition,
because their interest payments are adjusted for changes in short-term interest
rates, investments in Senior Loans generally have less interest rate risk than
below-investment-grade rated bonds.&#160; The
Fund&#146;s investments in Senior Loans are expected to typically be below
investment grade, which are considered speculative because of the credit risk
of their issuers.&#160; Such companies are
more likely to default on their payments of interest and principal owed to the
Fund, and such defaults could reduce the Fund&#146;s net asset value and income
distributions.&#160; An economic downturn
generally leads to a higher non-payment rate, and a debt obligation may lose
significant value before a default occurs.&#160;
Moreover, any specific collateral used to secure a Loan may decline in
value or become illiquid, which would adversely affect the Loan&#146;s value.</font></p>

and a potential decrease in the net asset value per share of the Fund.&#160; There can be no assurance that the
liquidation of any collateral securing a Loan would satisfy the borrower&#146;s
obligation in the event of non-payment of scheduled interest or principal
payments, or that such collateral could be readily liquidated.&#160; In the event of bankruptcy of a borrower, the
Fund could experience delays or limitations with respect to its ability to
realize the benefits of the collateral securing a Senior Loan.&#160; The collateral securing a Senior Loan may
lose all or substantially all of its value in the event of bankruptcy of a
borrower.&#160; Some Senior Loans are subject
to the risk that a court, pursuant to fraudulent conveyance or other similar
laws, could subordinate such Senior Loans to presently existing or future
indebtedness of the borrower or take other action detrimental to the holders of
Senior Loans including, in certain circumstances, invalidating such Senior
Loans or causing interest previously paid to be refunded to the borrower.&#160; If interest were required to be refunded, it
could negatively affect the Fund&#146;s performance.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund may purchase and retain in its portfolio Senior Loans where the borrowers
have experienced, or may be perceived to be likely to experience, credit
problems, including default, involvement in or recent emergence from bankruptcy
reorganization proceedings or other forms of debt restructuring. At times, in
connection with the restructuring of a Senior Loan either outside of bankruptcy
court or in the context of bankruptcy court proceedings, the Fund may determine
or be required to accept equity securities or junior debt securities in
exchange for all or a portion of a Senior Loan.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Senior
Loans in which the Fund will invest may not be rated by a nationally recognized
statistical ratings organization (&#147;NRSRO&#148;), may not be registered with the SEC
or any state securities commission, and may not be listed on any national
securities exchange.&#160; The amount of
public information available with respect to Senior Loans may be less extensive
than available for registered or exchange-listed securities. In evaluating the
creditworthiness of borrowers, Credit Suisse will consider, and may rely in
part, on analyses performed by others.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Borrowers
may have outstanding debt obligations that are rated below investment grade by
a NRSRO.&#160; Most of the Senior Loans held
by the Fund will have been assigned ratings below investment grade by a
NRSRO.&#160; In the event Senior Loans are not
rated, they are likely to be the equivalent of below investment grade
quality.&#160; The Fund will rely on the
judgment, analysis and experience of Credit Suisse in evaluating the
creditworthiness of a borrower.&#160; In this
evaluation, Credit Suisse will take into consideration, among other things, the
borrower&#146;s financial resources, its sensitivity to economic conditions and
trends, its operating history, the quality of the borrower&#146;s management and
regulatory matters.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">No
active trading market may exist for some Senior Loans and some Senior Loans may
be subject to restrictions on resale.&#160;
Secondary markets may be subject to irregular trading activity, wide
bid/ask spreads and extended trade settlement periods, which may impair the
ability to realize full value and thus cause a decline in the Fund&#146;s net asset
value.&#160; During periods of limited demand
and liquidity for Senior Loans, the Fund&#146;s net asset value may be adversely
affected.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Although
changes in prevailing interest rates can be expected to cause some fluctuations
in the value of Senior Loans (due to the fact that floating rates on Senior
Loans only reset periodically), the value of Senior Loans tends to be
substantially less sensitive to changes in market interest rates than
fixed-rate instruments.&#160; Nevertheless, a
sudden and significant increase in market interest rates may cause a decline in
the value of these investments and an associated decline in the Fund&#146;s net
asset value.</font></p>

factors (including, but not limited to, rating downgrades, credit
deterioration, a large downward movement in stock prices, a disparity in supply
and demand of certain investments or market conditions that reduce liquidity)
can reduce the value of Senior Loans and other debt obligations, impairing the
Fund&#146;s net asset value.</font></p>

Fund may purchase Senior Loans by assignment from a participant in the original
syndicate of lenders or from subsequent assignees of such interests, or can buy
a participation in a loan.&#160; The Fund may
also purchase participations in the original syndicate making Senior
Loans.&#160; Loan participations typically
represent indirect participations in a loan to a corporate borrower, and
generally are offered by banks or other financial institutions or lending
syndicates.&#160; When purchasing loan&#160; participations, the Fund assumes the credit
risk associated with the corporate borrower and may assume the credit risk
associated with an interposed bank or other financial intermediary.&#160; The Fund will acquire participations only if
the lender interpositioned between the Fund and the borrower is determined by
Credit Suisse to be creditworthy.</font></p>

and other debt instruments are also subject to the risk of price declines due
to increases in prevailing interest rates, although floating-rate debt
instruments are less exposed to this risk than fixed-rate debt instruments.&#160; Interest rate changes may also increase
prepayments of debt obligations and require the Fund to invest assets at lower

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Second
Lien Loans and other secured Loans are subject to the same risks associated
with investment in Senior Loans and bonds rated below investment grade.
However, because Second Lien Loans are second in right of payment to one or
more Senior Loans of the related borrower, and other secured Loans rank lower
in right of payment to Second Lien Loans, they are subject to the additional
risk that the cash flow of the borrower and any property securing the Loan may
be insufficient to meet scheduled payments after giving effect to the more
senior secured obligations of the borrower.&#160;
This risk is generally higher for subordinated unsecured loans or debt,
which are not backed by a security interest in any specific collateral.&#160; Second Lien Loans and other secured Loans are
also expected to have greater price volatility than Senior Loans and may be
less liquid.&#160; There is also a possibility
that originators will not be able to sell participations in Second Lien Loans
and other secured Loans, which would create greater credit risk exposure.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Unlike
publicly traded common stock which trades on national exchanges, there is no
central place or exchange for bond trading. Bonds generally trade on an
&#147;over-the-counter&#148; market which may be anywhere in the world where buyer and
seller can settle on a price. Due to the lack of centralized information and
trading, the valuation of bonds may carry more risk than that of common stock.
Uncertainties in the conditions of the financial market, unreliable reference
data, lack of transparency and inconsistency of valuation models and processes
may lead to inaccurate asset pricing. As a result, the Fund may be subject to
the risk that when a security is sold in the market, the amount received by the
Fund is less than the value of such security carried on the Fund&#146;s books.</font></p>

Fund is classified as a &#147;non-diversified&#148; management investment company under
the 1940 Act, which means that the Fund may invest a greater portion of its
assets in a limited number of issuers than would be the case if the Fund were
classified as a &#147;diversified&#148; management investment company. Accordingly, the
Fund may be subject to greater risk with respect to its portfolio securities
than a management investment company that is &#147;diversified&#148; because changes in
the financial condition or market assessment of a single issuer may cause greater
fluctuations in the net asset value of the Shares.</font></p>

Although the Shares have recently traded on the NYSE Amex at a premium to their

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under the Fund&#146;s Investment
Advisory Agreement with Credit Suisse, Credit Suisse receives as compensation
for its advisory services from the Fund an annual fee, payable monthly,
calculated at an annual rate of: (i)&nbsp;1.00% of the first $250 million of
the average weekly value of the Fund&#146;s total assets minus the sum of
liabilities (other than aggregate indebtedness constituting leverage) (the
&#147;Managed Assets&#148;); and (ii)&nbsp;0.75% of the average weekly value of the
Managed Assets greater than $250 million. Credit Suisse may voluntarily waive a
portion of its fees from time to time and temporarily limit the expenses to be
borne by the Fund. Effective January&nbsp;1, 2007, Credit Suisse agreed to
waive 0.15% of the fees payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement. During
the period in which the Fund is utilizing leverage, the advisory fee payable to
Credit Suisse will be higher than if the Fund did not utilize a leveraged
capital structure because the fees are calculated as a percentage of the
Managed Assets, including those purchased with leverage. The Fund is currently
utilizing leverage.</font></p>

Investment Adviser receives a fee based on assets, it will benefit from the
increase in assets that will result from the Offer. It is not possible to state
precisely the amount of additional compensation that the Investment Adviser
might receive as a result of the Offer because it is not known how many Shares
will be subscribed for and because the proceeds of the Offer will be invested
in additional portfolio securities, which will fluctuate in value. However,
assuming (i)&nbsp;all Rights are exercised, (ii)&nbsp;the Fund&#146;s average weekly
net asset value during [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;] is
$[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;] per Share (the net asset value per
Share on [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]),
(iii)&nbsp;the Subscription Price is $[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]), and (iv)&nbsp;assuming, for
purposes of this example, the Fund increases the amount of leverage outstanding
while maintaining approximately the same percentage of total assets
attributable to leverage (after giving effect to offering expenses), the
Investment Adviser would receive additional advisory fees of approximately
$[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;] million for the calendar year
[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;] and would continue to receive additional
advisory fees as a result of the Offer, based on the Fund&#146;s average weekly
Managed Assets attributable to the Shares issued in the Offer, thereafter.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Securities, options, futures contracts and other
assets (including swap contracts) which cannot be valued pursuant to the
foregoing will be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by or
under the direction of the Board of the Fund.&#160;
In addition, the Board of the Fund or its delegates may value a security
at fair value if it determines that such security&#146;s value determined by the
methodology set forth above does not reflect its fair value.&#160; If the value of a security has been
materially affected by events occurring after the relevant market closes, but
before the Fund calculates its net asset value, the Fund may price those
securities at fair value as determined in good faith in accordance with
procedures approved by the Board.&#160; </font><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">When fair value
pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its
net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same
securities.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Trading in securities in certain foreign countries
is completed at various times prior to the close of business on each business
day in New York (<i>i.e.</i>, a day on which the NYSE is
open for trading).&#160; In addition,
securities trading in a particular country or countries may not take place on
all business days in New York.&#160;
Furthermore, trading takes place in various foreign markets on days that
are not business days in New York and days on which the Fund&#146;s net asset value
is not calculated.&#160; As a result, calculation
of the Fund&#146;s net asset value may not take place contemporaneously with the
determination of the prices of certain foreign portfolio securities used in
such calculation.&#160; All assets and
liabilities initially expressed in foreign currency values will be converted
into U.S. dollar values at the prevailing rate as quoted by a Pricing Service
at the close of the London Stock Exchange.&#160;
If such quotations are not available, the rate of exchange will be
determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund declares and pays
dividends on a monthly basis. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if
any, are declared and paid at least annually. The Fund&#146;s dividend policy is to
distribute substantially all of its net investment income to its shareholders
on a monthly basis. However, in order to provide shareholders with a more
consistent yield to the current trading price of shares of beneficial interest
of the Fund, the Fund may at times pay out less than the entire amount of net
investment income earned in any particular month and may at times in any month
pay out such accumulated but undistributed income in addition to net investment
income earned in that month. As a result, the dividends paid by the Fund for
any particular month may be more or less than the amount of net investment
income earned by the Fund during such month.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Pursuant
to the Fund&#146;s automatic dividend reinvestment plan (the &#147;Plan&#148;), unless a
shareholder otherwise elects, all dividends and capital gain distributions will
be automatically reinvested by Computershare as agent for shareholders in
administering the Plan (the &#147;Plan Agent&#148;), in additional Shares of the Fund.
Shareholders who elect not to participate in the Plan will receive all
dividends and other distributions in cash paid by check mailed directly to the
shareholder of record (or, if the Shares are held in street or other nominee
name, then to such nominee) by Computershare as the Dividend-Paying Agent. Such
participants may elect not to participate in the Plan and to receive all
dividends and capital gain distributions in cash by sending written
instructions to Computershare, as the Dividend-Paying Agent, at the address set
forth below. Participation in the Plan is completely voluntary and may be
terminated or resumed at any time without penalty by written notice if received
by the Plan Agent not less than ten days prior to any dividend record date;
otherwise such termination will be effective with respect to any subsequently
declared dividend or other distribution.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Whenever
the Fund declares an income dividend or a capital gain distribution
(collectively referred to as &#147;dividends&#148;) payable either in Shares or in cash,
non-participants in the Plan will receive cash and participants in the Plan
will receive the equivalent in Shares. The Shares will be acquired by the Plan
Agent for the participants&#146; accounts, depending upon the circumstances described
below, either (i)&nbsp;through receipt of additional unissued but authorized
Shares from the Fund (&#147;newly issued Shares&#148;) or (ii)&nbsp;by purchase of
outstanding Shares on the open market (&#147;open-market purchases&#148;) on the NYSE
Amex or elsewhere. If on the payment date for the dividend, the net asset value
per Share is equal to or less than the market price per Share plus estimated
brokerage commissions (such condition being referred to herein as &#147;market
premium&#148;), the Plan Agent will invest the dividend amount in newly issued
Shares on behalf of the participants. The number of newly issued Shares to be
credited to each participant&#146;s account will be determined by dividing the
dollar amount of the dividend by the net asset value per Share on the date the
Shares are issued. If on the dividend payment date the net asset value per
Share is greater than the market value (such condition being referred to herein
as &#147;market discount&#148;), the Plan Agent will invest the dividend amount in Shares
acquired on behalf of the participants in open-market purchases.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In
the event of a market discount on the dividend payment date, the Plan Agent
will have until the last business day before the next date on which the Shares
trade on an &#147;ex-dividend&#148; basis or in no event more than 30 days after the
dividend payment date (the &#147;last purchase date&#148;) to invest the dividend amount
in Shares acquired in open-market purchases. It is contemplated that the Fund
will pay monthly income dividends. Therefore, the period during which
open-market purchases can be made will exist only from the payment date of the
dividend through the date before the next &#147;ex-dividend&#148; date which typically
will be approximately ten days. If, before the Plan Agent has completed its
open-market purchases, the market price of a Share exceeds the net asset value
per Share, the average per Share purchase price paid by the Plan Agent may
exceed the net asset value of the Shares, resulting in the acquisition of fewer
Shares than if the dividend had been paid in newly issued Shares on the
dividend record date. Because of the foregoing difficulty with respect to open
market purchases, the Plan provides that if the Plan Agent is unable to invest
the full dividend amount in open market purchases during the purchase period or
if the market discount shifts to a market premium during the purchase period,
the Plan Agent may cease making open-market purchases and may invest the
uninvested portion of the dividend amount in newly issued Shares at the net
asset value per Share at the close of business on the last purchase date.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Plan Agent maintains all shareholders&#146; accounts in the Plan and furnishes
written confirmation of all transactions in the accounts, including information
needed by shareholders for tax records. Shares in the account of each Plan
participant will be held by the Plan Agent on behalf of the Plan participant,
and each shareholder proxy will include those Shares purchased or received
pursuant to the Plan. The Plan Agent will forward all proxy solicitation
materials to participants and vote proxies for Shares held pursuant to the Plan
in accordance with the instructions of the participants.</font></p>

the case of shareholders such as banks, brokers or nominees that hold Shares

will be no brokerage charges with respect to Shares issued directly by the Fund
as a result of dividends or capital gains distributions payable either in
Shares or in cash. However, each participant will pay a pro rata share of
brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Plan Agent&#146;s open-market
purchases in connection with the reinvestment of dividends.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
automatic reinvestment of dividends will not relieve participants of any
Federal, state or local income tax that may be payable (or required to be
withheld) on such dividends. See &#147;Taxation.&#148; Shareholders participating in the
Plan may receive benefits not available to Shareholders not participating in
the Plan. If the market price (plus commissions) of the Shares is above their
net asset value, participants in the Plan will receive Shares of the Fund at
less than they could otherwise purchase them and will have Shares with a cash
value greater than the value of any cash distribution they would have received
on their Shares. If the market price plus commissions is below the net asset
value, participants will receive distributions in Shares with a net asset value
greater than the value of any cash distribution they would have received on
their Shares. However, there may be insufficient Shares available in the market
to make distributions in Shares at prices below the net asset value. Also,
since the Fund does not redeem Shares, the price on resale may be more or less
than the net asset value.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Experience
under the Plan may indicate that changes are desirable. Accordingly, the Fund
reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan. There is no direct service
charge to participants in the Plan; however, the Fund reserves the right to
amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants.</font></p>

Fund is treated as a separate entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The
Fund has elected to be treated, and has qualified and intends to continue to
qualify each year, as a &#147;regulated investment company&#148; under Subchapter M of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &#147;Code&#148;), so that it will not
pay U.S. federal income tax on income and capital gains distributed to
shareholders. In order to qualify as a regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Code, the Fund must, among other things, (i)&nbsp;derive at
least 90% of its gross income for each taxable year from dividends, interest,
payments with respect to certain securities loans, gains from the sale or other
disposition of stock, securities or foreign currencies, or other income
(including gains from options, futures, and forward contracts) derived with
respect to its business of investing in such stock, securities or currencies,
and net income derived from an interest in a qualified publicly traded
partnership (as defined in Section&nbsp;851(h)&nbsp;of the Code) (the &#147;90%
income test&#148;) and (ii)&nbsp;diversify its holdings so that, at the end of each
quarter of each taxable year: (a)&nbsp;at least 50% of the value of the Fund&#146;s
total assets is represented by (1)&nbsp;cash and cash items, U.S. government
securities, securities of other regulated investment companies, and (2)&nbsp;other
securities, with such other securities limited, in respect of any one issuer,
to an amount not greater than 5% of the value of the Fund&#146;s total assets and to
not more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer and (b)&nbsp;not
more than 25% of the value of the Fund&#146;s total assets is invested in (1)&nbsp;the
securities (other than U.S. government securities and securities of other
regulated investment companies) of any one issuer, (2)&nbsp;the securities
(other than securities of other regulated investment companies) of two or more
issuers that the Fund controls and that are engaged in the same, similar, or
related trades or businesses, or (3)&nbsp;the securities of one or more
qualified publicly traded partnerships.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Although
in general the passive loss rules&nbsp;of the Code do not apply to regulated
investment companies, such rules&nbsp;do apply to a regulated investment
company with respect to items attributable to an interest in a qualified
publicly traded partnership.&#160; Fund
investments in partnerships, including in qualified publicly traded partnerships,
may result in the fund&#146;s being subject to state, local or foreign income,
franchise or withholding tax liabilities.</font></p>

the Fund qualifies as a regulated investment company and properly distributes
to its shareholders each taxable year an amount equal to or exceeding the sum
of (i)&nbsp;90% of its &#147;investment company taxable income&#148; as that term is
defined in the Code (which includes, among other things, dividends, taxable
interest, and the excess of any net short-term capital gains over net long-term
capital losses, as reduced by certain deductible expenses) without regard to
the deduction for dividends paid and (ii)&nbsp;90% of the excess of its gross
tax-exempt interest income, if any, over certain disallowed deductions, the
Fund generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any income </font></p>

the Fund, including &#147;net capital gain&#148; (the excess of net long-term capital
gain over net short-term capital loss), distributed to shareholders. However,
if the Fund meets such distribution requirements, but chooses to retain some
portion of its taxable income or gains, it generally will be subject to U.S.
federal income tax at regular corporate rates on the amount retained. The Fund
may designate certain amounts retained as undistributed net capital gain in a
notice to its shareholders, who (i)&nbsp;will be required to include in income
for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as long-term capital gain, their
proportionate shares of the undistributed amount so designated, (ii)&nbsp;will
be entitled to credit their proportionate shares of the income tax paid by the
Fund on that undistributed amount against their federal income tax liabilities
and to claim refunds to the extent such credits exceed their liabilities and
(iii)&nbsp;will be entitled to increase their tax basis, for federal income tax
purposes, in their shares by an amount equal to the excess of the amount of
undistributed net capital gain included in their respective income over their
respective income tax credits. The Fund intends to distribute at least annually
all or substantially all of its investment company taxable income (computed
without regard to the dividends-paid deduction), net tax-exempt interest
income, and net capital gain.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If,
for any taxable year, the Fund does not qualify as a regulated investment
company or does not satisfy the 90% distribution requirement, it will be
treated as a U.S. corporation subject to U.S. federal income tax, thereby
subjecting any income earned by the Fund to tax at the corporate level and to a
further tax at the shareholder level when such income is distributed.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Code imposes a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the Fund to the extent it does
not distribute by the end of any calendar year at least the sum of (i)&nbsp;98%
of its taxable ordinary income for that year and (ii)&nbsp;98% of its capital
gain net income (both long-term and short-term) for the one-year period ending,
as a general rule, on October&nbsp;31 of that year.&#160; For this purpose, however, any ordinary
income or capital gain net income retained by the Fund that is subject to
corporate income tax will be considered to have been distributed by
year-end.&#160; In addition, the minimum
amounts that must be distributed in any year to avoid the excise tax will be
increased or decreased to reflect any underdistribution or overdistribution, as
the case may be, from the previous year.&#160;
The Fund anticipates that it will pay such dividends and will make such
distributions as are necessary in order to avoid the application of this excise
tax.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
IRS has taken the position that if a regulated investment company has two or
more classes of shares, it must designate distributions made to each class in
any year as consisting of no more than such class&#146;s proportionate share of
particular types of income, including tax-exempt interest, net capital gains,
and other income subject to federal income tax. A class&#146;s proportionate share
of a particular type of income is determined according to the percentage of
total dividends paid by the regulated investment company to such class.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Existing
authorities do not specifically address whether dividends that are paid
following the close of a taxable year, but that are treated for tax purposes as
derived from the income of such prior taxable year, are treated as dividends
paid during such prior taxable year for purposes of determining each class&#146;s
proportionate share of a particular type of income. The Fund currently intends
to treat such dividends as having been paid in the prior taxable year for
purposes of determining each class&#146;s proportionate share of a particular type
of income with respect to such prior taxable year. Existing authorities also do
not specifically address the allocation of taxable income among the dividends
paid to holders of a class of shares during or with respect to a taxable year.
It is possible that the IRS could disagree with the Fund&#146;s position concerning
the treatment of dividends paid after the close of a taxable year, in which
case the IRS could attempt to recharacterize a portion of the dividends paid
and designated by the Fund as exempt-interest dividends as consisting instead of
capital gains or other taxable income. If the IRS were to prevail with respect
to any such attempted recharacterization, holders of that class of shares could
be subject to tax on amounts so recharacterized and the Fund could be subject
to federal income and excise tax.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund declares a dividend from net investment income (excluding capital gains)
each month. Dividends are normally paid on the last business day of the month
or shortly thereafter. The Fund distributes any net short-term and long-term capital
gains in November. Dividends from income and/or capital gains may also be paid
at such other times as may be necessary for the Fund to avoid U.S. federal
income or excise tax.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Unless
a shareholder specifies otherwise, all distributions from the Fund to that
shareholder will be automatically reinvested in additional full and fractional
shares of the Fund. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, all dividends from
the Fund generally are taxable whether a shareholder takes them in cash or
reinvests them in additional shares of the Fund. In general, assuming that the
Fund has sufficient earnings and profits, dividends from net investment income

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Recently
enacted legislation imposes a 3.8% excise tax on net investment income,
including dividends, interest and net capital gains, of individuals with annual
income of $200,000 or more ($250,000 if married, filing jointly) beginning in
2013.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Distributions
by the Fund in excess of the Fund&#146;s current and accumulated earnings and
profits will be treated as a return of capital to the extent of (and in
reduction of) the shareholder&#146;s tax basis in its shares and any such amount in
excess of that basis will be treated as gain from the sale of shares, as
discussed below.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Distributions
from net capital gains, if any, that are designated as capital gain dividends
by the Fund are taxable as long-term capital gains for U.S. federal income tax
purposes without regard to the length of time the shareholder has held shares
of the Fund. Capital gain dividends distributed by the Fund to individual and
certain other noncorporate shareholders generally will qualify for reduced U.S.
federal income tax rates (currently, a maximum rate of 15%, with lower rates
applying to taxpayers in the 10% and 15% rate brackets) on long-term capital
gains, subject to certain limited exceptions. A shareholder should also be
aware that the benefits of the favorable tax rate applicable to long-term
capital gains and qualified dividend income may be affected by the application
of the alternative minimum tax to individual shareholders. Under current law,
the reduced maximum 15% U.S. federal income tax rate on qualified dividend income
and long-term capital gains will not apply in taxable years beginning after
December&nbsp;31, 2010.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
U.S. federal income tax status of all distributions will be reported to
shareholders annually.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Although
dividends generally will be treated as distributed when paid, any dividend
declared by the Fund in October, November&nbsp;or December&nbsp;and payable to
shareholders of record in such a month that is paid during the following
January&nbsp;will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as received
by shareholders on December&nbsp;31 of the calendar year in which it was
declared. In addition, certain other distributions made after the close of a
taxable year of the Fund may be &#147;spilled back&#148; and treated for certain purposes
as paid by the Fund during such taxable year. In such case, shareholders
generally will be treated as having received such dividends in the taxable year
in which the distributions were actually made. For purposes of calculating the
amount of a regulated investment company&#146;s undistributed income and gain
subject to the 4% excise tax described above, such &#147;spilled back&#148; dividends are
treated as paid by the regulated investment company when they are actually
paid.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">For
U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Fund is permitted to carry forward a net
capital loss for any year to offset its capital gains, if any, for up to eight
years following the year of the loss. To the extent subsequent capital gains
are offset by such losses, they would not result in U.S. federal income tax
liability to the Fund and may not be distributed as such to shareholders. The
Fund may not carry forward any losses other than net capital losses.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">At
the time of an investor&#146;s purchase of fund shares, a portion of the purchase
price may be attributable to realized or unrealized appreciation in the Fund&#146;s
portfolio or to undistributed capital gains of the Fund. Consequently,
subsequent distributions by the Fund with respect to these shares from such
appreciation or gains may be taxable to such investor even if the net asset
value of the investor&#146;s shares is, as a result of the distributions, reduced
below the investor&#146;s cost for such shares and the distributions economically
represent a return of a portion of the investment.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Sales
and exchanges generally are taxable events for shareholders that are subject to
tax. Shareholders should consult their own tax advisers with reference to their
individual circumstances to determine whether any particular transaction in
fund shares is properly treated as a sale for tax purposes, as the following discussion
assumes, and the tax treatment of any gains or losses recognized in such
transactions. In general, if fund shares are sold, the shareholder will
recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on
the sale and the shareholder&#146;s adjusted basis in the shares. Such gain or loss
generally will be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if the shares were
held for more than one year and otherwise generally will be treated as
short-term capital gain or loss.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Losses
on sales or other dispositions of shares may be disallowed under &#147;wash sale&#148;
rules&nbsp;in the event of other investments in the Fund (including those made
pursuant to reinvestment of dividends and/or capital gain distributions) within
a period of 61 days beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after a sale or
other disposition of shares. In such a case, the disallowed portion of any loss
generally would be included in the U.S. federal tax basis of the shares
acquired in the other investments.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">of
certain greater amounts over a combination of years), the shareholder must file
with the IRS a disclosure statement on Form&nbsp;8886. Shareholders who own
portfolio securities directly are in many cases excepted from this reporting
requirement but, under current guidance, shareholders of regulated investment
companies are not excepted. A shareholder who fails to make the required
disclosure to the IRS may be subject to substantial penalties. The fact that a
loss is reportable under these regulations does not affect the legal
determination of whether or not the taxpayer&#146;s treatment of the loss is proper.
Shareholders should consult with their tax advisers to determine the
applicability of these regulations in light of their individual circumstances.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Shareholders
that are exempt from U.S. federal income tax, such as retirement plans that are
qualified under Section&nbsp;401 of the Code, generally are not subject to U.S.
federal income tax on otherwise-taxable fund dividends or distributions, or on
sales or exchanges of fund shares unless the Fund shares are &#147;debt-financed
property&#148; within the meaning of the Code. However, in the case of fund shares
held through a non-qualified deferred compensation plan, fund dividends and
distributions received by the plan and sales and exchanges of fund shares by
the plan generally are taxable to the employer sponsoring such plan in
accordance with the U.S. federal income tax laws that are generally applicable
to shareholders receiving such dividends or distributions from regulated
investment companies such as the Fund.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">A
plan participant whose retirement plan invests in the Fund, whether such plan
is qualified or not, generally is not taxed on any fund dividends or
distributions received by the plan or on sales or exchanges of fund shares by
the plan for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, distributions to plan
participants from a retirement plan account generally are taxable as ordinary
income, and different tax treatment, including penalties on certain excess
contributions and deferrals, certain pre-retirement and post-retirement
distributions and certain prohibited transactions, is accorded to accounts
maintained as qualified retirement plans. Shareholders should consult their tax
advisers for more information.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund may invest to a significant extent in debt obligations that are in the
lowest rating categories or that are unrated, including debt obligations of
issuers not currently paying interest or that are in default. Investments in
debt obligations that are at risk of or in default present special tax issues
for the Fund. Federal income tax rules&nbsp;are not entirely clear about issues
such as when the Fund may cease to accrue interest, original issue discount or
market discount, when and to what extent deductions may be taken for bad debts
or worthless securities, how payments received on obligations in default should
be allocated between principal and interest and whether certain exchanges of
debt obligations in a workout context are taxable. These and other issues will
be addressed by the Fund, in the event it invests in or holds such securities,
in order to seek to ensure that it distributes sufficient income to preserve
its status as a regulated investment company and does not become subject to
U.S. federal income or excise tax.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If
the Fund invests in certain pay-in-kind securities, zero coupon securities,
deferred interest securities or, in general, any other securities with original
issue discount (or with market discount if the Fund elects to include market
discount in income currently), the Fund generally must accrue income on such
investments for each taxable year, which generally will be prior to the receipt
of the corresponding cash payments. However, the Fund must distribute to its
shareholders, at least annually, all or substantially all of its investment
company taxable income (determined without regard to the deduction for
dividends paid) and net tax-exempt income, including such accrued income, to
qualify to be treated as a regulated investment company under the Code and
avoid U.S. federal income and excise taxes. Therefore, the Fund may have to
dispose of its portfolio securities, potentially under disadvantageous
circumstances, to generate cash, or may have to borrow the cash, to satisfy
distribution requirements. Such a disposition of securities may potentially
result in additional taxable gain or loss to the Fund.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Options
written or purchased and futures contracts entered into by the Fund on certain
securities, indices and foreign currencies, as well as certain forward foreign
currency contracts, may cause the Fund to recognize gains or losses from
marking-to-market even though such options may not have lapsed or been closed
out or exercised, or such futures or forward contracts may not have been performed
or closed out. The tax rules&nbsp;applicable to these contracts may affect the
characterization of some capital gains and losses realized by the Fund as
long-term or short-term. Certain options, futures and forward contracts
relating to foreign currency may be subject to Section&nbsp;988 of the Code,
and accordingly may produce ordinary income or loss. Additionally, the Fund may
be required to recognize gain if an option, futures contract, forward contract,
short sale or other transaction that is not subject to the mark-to-market rules&nbsp;is
treated as a &#147;constructive sale&#148; of an &#147;appreciated financial position&#148; held by
the Fund under Section&nbsp;1259 of the Code. Any net mark-to-market gains
and/or gains from constructive sales may also have to be distributed to satisfy
the distribution requirements referred to above even though the Fund may
receive no </font></p>

potentially result in additional taxable gain or loss to the Fund. Losses on
certain options, futures or forward contracts and/or offsetting positions
(portfolio securities or other positions with respect to which the Fund&#146;s risk
of loss is substantially diminished by one or more options, futures or forward
contracts) may also be deferred under the tax straddle rules&nbsp;of the Code,
which may also affect the characterization of capital gains or losses from straddle
positions and certain successor positions as long-term or short-term. Certain
tax elections may be available that would enable the Fund to ameliorate some
adverse effects of the tax rules&nbsp;described in this paragraph. The tax
rules&nbsp;applicable to options, futures, forward contracts and straddles may
affect the amount, timing and character of the Fund&#146;s income and gains or
losses and hence of its distributions to shareholders.</font></p>

a result of entering into swap contracts, the Fund may make or receive periodic
net payments.&#160; The Fund may also make or
receive a payment when a swap is terminated prior to maturity through an
assignment of the swap or other closing transaction.&#160; Periodic net payments will generally
constitute ordinary income or deductions, while termination of a swap will
generally result in capital gain or loss (which will be a long-term capital
gain or loss if the fund has been a party to the swap for more than one
year).&#160; With respect to certain types of
swaps, the Fund may be required to currently recognize income or loss with
respect to future payments on such swaps or may elect under certain
circumstances to mark such swaps to market annually for tax purposes as
ordinary income or loss.&#160; The tax treatment
of many types of credit default swaps is uncertain.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund may be subject to withholding and other taxes imposed by foreign
countries, including taxes on interest, dividends and capital gains with
respect to its investments in those countries. Any such taxes would, if
imposed, reduce the yield on or return from those investments. Tax conventions
between certain countries and the U.S. may reduce or eliminate such taxes in
some cases. The Fund does not expect to satisfy the requirements for passing
through to its shareholders any share of foreign taxes paid by the Fund, with
the result that shareholders will not include such taxes in their gross incomes
and will not be entitled to a tax deduction or credit for such taxes on their
own tax returns.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund is required to withhold (as &#147;backup withholding&#148;) a certain percentage of
reportable payments, including dividends, capital gain distributions and the
proceeds of redemptions or repurchases of fund shares paid to shareholders who
have not complied with certain IRS regulations. In order to avoid this
withholding requirement, shareholders, other than certain exempt entities, must
certify on their Account Applications, or on separate IRS Forms W-9, that the
Social Security Number or other Taxpayer Identification Number they provide is
their correct number and that they are not currently subject to backup
withholding, or that they are exempt from backup withholding. The Fund may
nevertheless be required to backup withhold if it receives notice from the IRS
or a broker that the number provided is incorrect or backup withholding is
applicable as a result of previous underreporting of interest or dividend
income.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
description of certain federal tax provisions above relates only to U.S.
federal income tax consequences for shareholders who are U.S. persons, i.e.,
generally, U.S. citizens or residents or U.S. corporations, partnerships,
trusts or estates, and who are subject to U.S. federal income tax and hold
their shares as capital assets. Except as otherwise provided, this description
does not address the special tax rules&nbsp;that may be applicable to
particular types of investors, such as financial institutions, insurance
companies, securities dealers, other regulated investment companies, or
tax-exempt or tax-deferred plans, accounts or entities. Investors other than
U.S. persons may be subject to different U.S. federal income tax treatment,
including a non-resident alien U.S. withholding tax at the rate of 30% or any
lower applicable treaty rate on amounts treated as ordinary dividends from the
Fund (other than, for the taxable year of the Fund beginning on November&nbsp;1,
2009, certain dividends designated by the Fund as (i)&nbsp;interest-related
dividends, to the extent such dividends are derived from the Fund&#146;s &#147;qualified
net interest income,&#148; or (ii)&nbsp;short-term capital gain dividends, to the
extent such dividends are derived from the Fund&#146;s &#147;qualified short-term gain&#148;)
or, in certain circumstances, unless an effective IRS Form&nbsp;W-8BEN or other
authorized withholding certificate is on file, to backup withholding at the
rate of 28% on certain other payments from the Fund. &#147;Qualified net interest
income&#148; is the Fund&#146;s net income derived from U.S.-source interest and original
issue discount, subject to certain exceptions and limitations. &#147;Qualified
short-term gain&#148; generally means the excess of the net short-term capital gain
of the Fund for the taxable year over its net long-term capital loss, if any.
Backup withholding will not be applied to payments that have been subject to
the 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) withholding tax on shareholders who
are neither citizens nor residents of the United States. Shareholders should
consult their own tax advisers on these matters and on state, local, foreign
and other applicable tax laws.</font></p>

such factors as relative demand for and supply of such Shares in the market,
the Fund&#146;s net asset value, general market and economic conditions and other
factors beyond the control of the Fund. See &#147;Determination of Net Asset Value.&#148;
Although the shareholders will not have the right to redeem their Shares, the
Fund may take action to repurchase Shares in the open market or make tender
offers for Shares at their net asset value. This may have the effect of
reducing any market discount from net asset value.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">There
is no assurance that if action is undertaken to repurchase or tender for
Shares, such action will result in the Shares&#146; trading at a price which
approximates their net asset value. Although Share repurchases and tenders
could have a favorable effect on the market price of the Shares, it should be recognized
that the acquisition of Shares by the Fund will decrease the total assets of
the Fund and, therefore, have the effect of increasing the Fund&#146;s expense
ratio. Any Share repurchases or tender offers will be made in accordance with
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the 1940
Act.</font></p>

Fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Shares. Each Share has one
vote and, when issued and paid for in accordance with the terms of the offer,
will be fully paid and non-assessable. Shares are of one class and have equal
rights as to dividends and in liquidation. Shares have no preemptive,
subscription or conversion rights and are freely transferable. The Fund will

plan, as it may be amended from time to time. See &#147;Dividends and Other
Distributions; Dividend Reinvestment and Cash Purchase Plan.&#148; Other offerings
of Shares, if made, will require approval of the Board. The Board is
authorized, however, to classify and reclassify any unissued shares into one or
more additional or other classes or series as may be established from time to
time by setting or changing in any one or more respects the designations,
preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions,
limitations as to dividends, qualifications or terms or conditions of
redemption of such shares and pursuant to such classification or
reclassification to increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of any
existing class or series. The Fund may reclassify and offer unissued shares as
preferred stock subject to the limitations of the 1940 </font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As
of <b><i style="font-weight:bold;">[recent date]</i></b>, 2010, the net asset
value per Share of the Fund was
$[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;] and on that date the
closing price per Share on the NYSE Amex was
$[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;], meaning the Fund&#146;s Shares
were trading at a [&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]% premium to the Fund&#146;s
net asset value per Share.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Although
the Fund&#146;s Shares have recently traded at a premium to their net asset value,
the Fund&#146;s Shares have in the past traded at a discount to their net asset
value. The Fund cannot determine the reasons why the Fund&#146;s Shares trade at a
premium to or discount from net asset value, nor can the Fund predict whether
its Shares will trade in the future at a premium to or discount from net asset
value, or the level of any premium or discount.&#160;
Shares of closed-end investment companies frequently trade at a discount
from net asset value.</font></p>

Provisions in the Declaration of Trust</font></b></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund&#146;s Declaration of Trust includes provisions that could have the effect of
limiting the ability of other entities or persons to acquire control of the
Fund or to change the composition of its Board, and could have the effect of
depriving shareholders of an opportunity to sell their Shares at a premium over
prevailing market prices by discouraging a third party from seeking to obtain
control of the Fund. These provisions may have the effect of discouraging
attempts to acquire control of the Fund, which attempts could have the effect
of increasing the expenses of the Fund and interfering with the normal
operation of the Fund.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Board is divided into three classes, with the terms of one class expiring at
each annual meeting of shareholders. At each annual meeting, one class of
Trustees is elected to a three-year term. This provision could delay for up to
two years the replacement of a majority of the Board. A Trustee may be removed
from office for any reason or for no reason by a written instrument signed by
at least two-thirds of the remaining Trustees or by a vote of the holders of at
least two-thirds of the Shares.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In
addition, the Declaration of Trust requires the favorable vote of the holders
of at least 80% of the outstanding Shares of each class of the Fund, voting as
a class, then entitled to vote to approve, adopt or authorize certain
transactions with 5%-or-greater holders of a class of Shares and their
associates, unless the Board shall by resolution have approved a memorandum of
understanding with such holders, in which case normal voting requirements would
be in effect. For purposes of these provisions, a 5%-or-greater holder of a
class of Shares (a &#147;Principal Shareholder&#148;) refers to any person who, whether
directly or indirectly and whether alone or together with its affiliates and
associates, beneficially owns 5% or more of the outstanding shares of any class
of beneficial interest of the Fund. The transactions subject to these special
approval requirements are: (i)&nbsp;the merger or consolidation of the Fund or
any subsidiary of the Fund with or into any Principal Shareholder; (ii)&nbsp;the
issuance of any securities of the Fund to any Principal Shareholder for cash
(except pursuant to the Fund&#146;s dividend reinvestment and cash purchase plan);
(iii)&nbsp;the sale, lease or exchange of all or any substantial part of the
assets of the Fund to any Principal Shareholder (except assets having an
aggregate fair market value of less than $1,000,000, aggregating for the
purpose of such computation all assets sold, leased or exchanged in any series
of similar transactions within a twelve-month period); or (iv)&nbsp;the sale,
lease or exchange to the Fund or any subsidiary thereof, in exchange for
securities of the Fund, of any assets of any Principal Shareholder (except
assets having an aggregate fair market value of less than $1,000,000,
aggregating for the purposes of such computation all assets sold, leased or
exchanged in any series of similar transactions within a twelve-month period).</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Board has determined that provisions with respect to the Board and the 80%
voting requirements described above which voting requirements are greater than
the minimum requirements under Delaware law or the 1940 Act, are in the best
interests of shareholders generally. Reference should be made to the
Declaration of Trust on file with the SEC for the full text of these
provisions.</font></p>

<p align="center" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:center;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Closed-end
funds differ from open-end investment companies (commonly referred to as mutual
funds) in that closed-end funds generally list their shares for trading on a
securities exchange and do not redeem their shares at the option of the
shareholder. By comparison, mutual funds issue securities redeemable at NAV at
the option of the shareholder and typically engage in a continuous offering of
their shares. Mutual funds are subject to continuous asset in-flows and
out-flows that can complicate portfolio management, whereas closed-end funds
generally can stay more fully invested in securities consistent with the
closed-end fund&#146;s investment objective and policies. In addition, in comparison
to open-end funds, closed-end funds have greater flexibility in their ability
to make certain types of investments, including investments in illiquid
securities.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">However,
shares of closed-end investment companies listed for trading on a securities
exchange frequently trade at a discount from NAV, although in some cases they
may trade at a premium. The market price may be affected by trading volume of
the shares, general market and economic conditions and other factors beyond the
control of the closed-end fund. The foregoing factors may result in the market
price of the shares being greater than, less than or equal to NAV. The Board of
Trustees has reviewed the structure of the Fund in light of its investment
objective and policies and has determined that the closed-end structure is in
the best interests of the shareholders. As described above, however, the Board
of Trustees will review periodically the trading range and activity of the
Fund&#146;s common shares with respect to its NAV and the Board may take certain
actions to seek to reduce or eliminate any such discount. Such actions may
include open market repurchases or tender offers for the common shares at net
asset value or the possible conversion of the Fund to an open-end investment
company. There can be no assurance that the Board will decide to undertake any
of these actions or that, if undertaken, such actions would result in the
common shares trading at a price equal to or close to net asset value per
share.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The

issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government in which the Fund may invest
include direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury and obligations issued by U.S.
government agencies and instrumentalities.&#160;
Included among direct obligations of the United States are Treasury
Bills, Treasury Notes and Treasury Bonds, which differ in terms of their
interest rates, maturities and dates of issuance.&#160; Treasury Bills have maturities of less than
one year, Treasury Notes have maturities of one to 10 years and Treasury Bonds
generally have maturities of greater than 10 years at the date of
issuance.&#160; Included among the obligations
issued by agencies and instrumentalities and government-sponsored enterprises
of the United States are:&#160; instruments
that are supported by the full faith and credit of the United States (such as
certificates issued by the Government National Mortgage Association (&#147;GNMA&#148;));
instruments that are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the
U.S. Treasury (such as securities of Federal Home Loan Banks); and instruments
that are supported by the credit of the instrumentality (such as Fannie Mae and
Freddie Mac bonds).</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Until
recently, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were government-sponsored corporations
owned entirely by private stockholders. Both issue mortgage-related securities
that contain guarantees as to timely payment of interest and principal but that
are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The value
of the companies&#146; securities fell sharply in 2008 due to concerns that the
companies did not have sufficient capital to offset losses. In mid-2008, the
U.S. Treasury was authorized to increase the size of home loans that Fannie Mae
and Freddie Mac could purchase in certain residential areas and, until 2009, to
lend Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac emergency funds and to purchase the companies&#146;
stock. In September&nbsp;2008, the U.S. Treasury announced that Fannie Mae and
Freddie Mac had been placed in conservatorship by the Federal Housing Finance
Agency (&#147;FHFA&#148;), a newly created independent regulator. The U.S. government
also took steps to provide additional financial support to such entities.&#160; No assurance can be given that the U.S.
Treasury initiatives discussed above with respect to the debt and
mortgage-backed securities issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will be successful
or that they will continue.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Other
U.S. government securities in which the Fund may invest include securities
issued or guaranteed by the Federal Housing Administration, Farmers Home Loan
Administration, Export-Import Bank of the United States, Small Business
Administration, GNMA, General Services Administration, Central Bank for
Cooperatives, Federal Farm Credit Banks, Federal Home Loan Banks, Freddie Mac,
Federal Intermediate Credit Banks, Federal Land Banks, Fannie Mae, Maritime
Administration, Tennessee Valley Authority, District of Columbia Armory Board
and Student Loan Marketing Association.&#160;
The Fund may invest in instruments that are supported by the right of
the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury and instruments that are supported
solely by the credit of the instrumentality or enterprise.&#160; Because the U.S. government is not obligated
by law to provide support to an instrumentality it sponsors, the Fund will
invest in obligations issued by such an instrumentality only if Credit Suisse
determines that the credit risk with respect to the instrumentality does not
make its securities unsuitable for investment by the Fund.</font></p>

invest in obligations issued or guaranteed by one or more foreign governments or
any of their political subdivisions, agencies or instrumentalities that are
determined by Credit Suisse to be of comparable quality to the other
obligations in which the Fund may invest. Supranational entities include
international organizations designated or supported by governmental entities to
promote economic reconstruction or development and international banking
institutions and related government agencies.</font></p>

invest in zero coupon U.S. Treasury securities, which are Treasury Notes and
Treasury Bonds that have been stripped of their unmatured interest coupons, the
coupons themselves and receipts or certificates representing interests in such
stripped debt obligations and coupons. Such stripped securities also are issued
by corporations and financial institutions which constitute a proportionate
ownership of the issuer&#146;s pool of underlying securities. A stripped security
pays no interest to its holder during its life and is sold at a discount to its
face value at maturity. The market prices of such securities generally are more
volatile than the market prices of securities that pay interest periodically
and are likely to respond to a greater degree to changes in interest rates than
coupon securities having similar maturities and credit qualities.</font></p>

Selling.</font></i><b><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-weight:bold;">&#160;
</font></b><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In these transactions, the Fund sells a security it does not own in
anticipation of a decline in the market value of the security. To complete the
transaction, the Fund must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer.
The Fund is obligated to replace the security borrowed by purchasing it
subsequently at the market price at the time of replacement. The price at such
time may be more or less than the price at which the security was sold by the
Fund, which would result in a loss or gain, respectively.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Securities will not be sold
short if, after effect is given to any such short sale, the total market value
of all securities sold short would exceed 25% of the value of the Fund&#146;s net
assets. The Fund may not make a short sale which results in the Fund having
sold short in the aggregate more than 10% of the outstanding securities of any
class of an issuer.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund also may make short
sales &#147;against the box&#148; in which the Fund enters into a short sale of a
security it owns.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Until the Fund closes out
its short position or replaces the borrowed security, it will: (a)&nbsp;maintain
a segregated account, containing permissible liquid assets, at such a level
that the amount deposited in the account plus the amount deposited with the
broker as collateral always equals the current value of the security sold
short; or (b)&nbsp;otherwise cover its short position.</font></p>

lend securities from its portfolio to brokers, dealers and other financial
institutions needing to borrow securities to complete certain transactions. The
Fund continues to be entitled to payments in amounts equal to the interest,
dividends or other distributions payable on the loaned securities, which
affords the Fund an opportunity to earn interest on the amount of the loan and
on the loaned securities&#146; collateral. Loans of portfolio securities may not
exceed 33-1/3% of the value of the Fund&#146;s total assets, and the Securities and
Exchange Commission (&#147;SEC&#148;) currently requires the Fund to receive collateral
consisting of cash, U.S. Government securities or irrevocable letters of credit
which will be maintained at all times in an amount equal to at least 100% of
the current market value of the loaned securities. According to the SEC, such
loans currently must be terminable by the Fund at any time upon specified
notice. The Fund might experience risk of loss if the institution with which it
has engaged in a portfolio loan transaction breaches its agreement with the
Fund. In connection with its securities lending transactions, the Fund may
return to the borrower or a third party which is acting as a &#147;placing broker,&#148;
a part of the interest earned from the investment of collateral received for
securities loaned.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Generally, the SEC currently
requires that the following conditions must be met whenever portfolio

reasonable custodian fees in connection with the loan; and (6)&nbsp;while
voting rights on the loaned securities may pass to the borrower, the Board of
Trustees of the Fund (the &#147;Board&#148;) must terminate the loan and regain the right
to vote the securities if a material event adversely affecting the investment
occurs. If the regulatory requirements pertaining to portfolio securities
lending were to change, the Fund would comply with such changes as required.</font></p>

Rule&nbsp;144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Fund intends
to treat such securities as liquid securities in accordance with procedures
approved by the Board. Because it is not possible to predict with assurance how
the market for specific restricted securities sold pursuant to Rule&nbsp;144A
will develop, the Board has directed Credit Suisse to monitor carefully the
Fund&#146;s investments in such securities with particular regard to trading
activity, availability of reliable price information and other relevant
information. To the extent that, for a period of time, qualified institutional
buyers cease purchasing restricted securities pursuant to Rule&nbsp;144A, the
Fund&#146;s investing in such securities may have the effect of increasing the level
of illiquidity in its investment portfolio during such period. Substantial

enter into reverse repurchase agreements with respect to its portfolio
investments subject to the investment restrictions set forth herein. Reverse
repurchase agreements involve the sale of securities held by the Fund with an
agreement by the Fund to repurchase the securities at an agreed upon price,
date and interest payment. The use by the Fund of reverse repurchase agreements
involves many of the same risks of leverage described under &#147;Special
Considerations and Risk Factors&#151;Leverage Risk&#148; and &#147;Use of Leverage&#148; in the
prospectus since the proceeds derived from such reverse repurchase agreements
may be invested in additional securities. At the time the Fund enters into a
reverse repurchase agreement, it may establish and maintain a segregated
account with the custodian containing liquid instruments having a value not
less than the repurchase price (including accrued interest). If the Fund
establishes and maintains such a segregated account, a reverse repurchase
agreement will not be considered a borrowing by the Fund; however, under
circumstances in which the Fund does not establish and maintain such a
segregated account, such reverse repurchase agreement will be considered a
borrowing for the purpose of the Fund&#146;s limitation on borrowings. Reverse
repurchase agreements involve the risk that the market value of the securities
acquired in connection with the reverse repurchase agreement may decline below
the price of the securities the Fund has sold but is obligated to repurchase.
Also, reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk that the market value of
the securities retained in lieu of sale by the Fund in connection with the
reverse repurchase agreement may decline in price.</font></p>

the buyer of securities under a reverse repurchase agreement files for
bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, such buyer or its trustee or receiver may
receive an extension of time to determine whether to enforce the Fund&#146;s obligation
to repurchase the securities, and the Fund&#146;s use of the proceeds of the reverse
repurchase agreement may effectively be restricted pending such decision. Also,
the Fund would bear the risk of loss to the extent that the proceeds of the
reverse repurchase agreement are less than the value of the securities subject
to such agreement.</font></p>

credit default swaps. These are financial instruments that derive their
performance, at least in part, from the performance of an underlying asset,
index or interest rate. The Derivatives the Fund may use include options,
futures contracts, forward contracts, securities and swaps. The Fund may invest
in, or enter into, Derivatives for a variety of reasons, including to hedge
certain market risks, to provide a substitute for purchasing or selling
particular securities or to increase potential income gain. Derivatives may
provide a cheaper, quicker or more specifically focused way for the Fund to
invest than &#147;traditional&#148; securities would.</font></p>

can be volatile and involve various types and degrees of risk, depending upon
the characteristics of the particular Derivative and the portfolio as a whole.
Derivatives permit the Fund to increase or decrease the level of risk, or
change the character of the risk, to which its portfolio is exposed in much the
same way as the Fund can increase or decrease the level of risk, or change the
character of the risk, of its portfolio by purchasing or selling specific

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If
the Fund invests in Derivatives at inopportune times or judges market
conditions incorrectly, such investments may lower the Fund&#146;s return or result
in a loss. The Fund also could experience losses if its Derivatives were poorly
correlated with its other investments, or if the Fund were unable to liquidate
its position because of an illiquid secondary market. The market for many
Derivatives is, or suddenly can become, illiquid. Changes in liquidity may
result in significant, rapid and unpredictable changes in the prices for
Derivatives.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Derivatives
may be purchased on established exchanges or through privately negotiated
transactions referred to as over-the-counter Derivatives. Exchange-traded
Derivatives generally are guaranteed by the clearing agency that is the issuer
or counterparty to such Derivatives. This guarantee usually is supported by a
daily payment system (i.e., variation margin requirements) operated by the
clearing agency in order to reduce overall credit risk. As a result, unless the
clearing agency defaults, there is relatively little counterparty credit risk
associated with Derivatives purchased on an exchange. By contrast, no clearing
agency guarantees over-the-counter Derivatives. Therefore, each party to an
over-the-counter Derivative bears the risk that the counterparty will default.
Accordingly, Credit Suisse will consider the creditworthiness of counterparties
to over-the-counter Derivatives in the same manner as it would review the
credit quality of a security to be purchased by the Fund. Over-the-counter
Derivatives are less liquid than exchange-traded Derivatives since the other
party to the transaction may be the only investor with sufficient understanding
of the Derivative to be interested in bidding for it.</font></p>

options on futures contracts in U.S. domestic markets, such as the Chicago
Board of Trade and the International Monetary Market of the Chicago Mercantile
Exchange or on exchanges located outside the United States, such as the London
International Financial Futures Exchange and the Sydney Futures Exchange
Limited. Foreign markets may offer advantages such as trading opportunities or
arbitrage possibilities not available in the United States. Foreign markets, however,
may have greater risk potential than domestic markets. For example, some
foreign exchanges are principal markets so that no common clearing facility
exists and an investor may look only to the broker for performance of the
contract. In addition, any profits that the Fund might realize in trading could
be eliminated by adverse changes in the exchange rate, or the Fund could incur
losses as a result of those changes. Transactions on foreign exchanges may
include both commodities which are traded on domestic exchanges and those that
are not. Unlike trading on domestic commodity exchanges, trading on foreign
commodity exchanges is not regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission (&#147;CFTC&#148;).</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Engaging
in these transactions involves risk of loss to the Fund that could adversely
affect the value of the Fund&#146;s net assets. Although the Fund intends to
purchase or sell futures contracts and options thereon only if there is an
active market for such contracts, no assurance can be given that a liquid market
will exist for any particular contract at any particular time. Many futures
exchanges and boards of trade limit the amount of fluctuation permitted in
futures contract or option prices during a single trading day. Once the daily
limit has been reached in a particular contract, no trades may be made that day
at a price beyond that limit or trading may be suspended for specified periods
during the trading day. Futures contract or option prices could move to the
limit for several consecutive trading days with little or no trading, thereby
preventing prompt liquidation of futures or option positions and potentially
subjecting the Fund to substantial losses. Successful use of futures and
options on futures by the Fund also is subject to the ability of Credit Suisse
to predict correctly movements in the direction of the relevant market and, to
the extent the transaction is entered into for hedging purposes, to ascertain
the appropriate correlation between the transaction being hedged and the price
movements of the futures contract or option thereon. For example, if the Fund
uses futures to hedge against the possibility of a decline in the market value
of securities held in its portfolio and the prices of such securities instead
increase, the Fund will lose part or all of the benefit of the increased value
of securities that it has hedged because it will have offsetting losses in its
futures positions. Furthermore, if in such circumstances the Fund has
insufficient cash, it may have to sell securities to meet daily variation
margin requirements. The Fund may have to sell such securities at a time when
it may be disadvantageous to do so.</font></p>

to regulations and/or published positions of the SEC, the Fund may be required
to segregate cash or other liquid assets in connection with its futures and
options on futures transactions in an amount generally equal to the value of
the underlying commodity. The segregation of such assets will have the effect
of limiting the Fund&#146;s ability otherwise to invest those assets.</font></p>

Fund may purchase and sell currency futures. A foreign currency future
obligates the Fund to purchase or sell an amount of a specific currency at a
future date at a specific price. The Fund may purchase and sell stock index and
debt futures contracts. An index future obligates the Fund to pay or receive an
amount of cash equal to a fixed dollar amount specified in the futures contract
multiplied by the difference between the settlement price of the contract on
the contract&#146;s last trading day and the value of the index based on the prices
of the securities that comprise it at the opening of trading in such securities

futures. When the Fund writes an option on a futures contract, it becomes
obligated, in return for the premium paid, to assume a position in the futures
contract at a specified exercise price at any time during the terms of the
option. If the Fund writes a call, it assumes a short futures position. If it
writes a put, it assumes a long futures position. When the Fund purchases an
option on a futures contract, it acquires the right, in return for the premium
it pays, to assume a position in the futures contract (a long position if the
option is a call and a short position if the option is a put).</font></p>

forward currency contracts to purchase or sell foreign currencies for a fixed
amount of U.S. dollars or another foreign currency. A forward currency contract
involves an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future
date, which may be any fixed number of days (term) from the date of the forward
currency contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time the
forward currency contract is entered into. Forward currency contracts are
traded directly between currency traders (usually large commercial banks) and
their customers.</font></p>

Fund may purchase a forward currency contract to lock in the U.S. dollar price
of a security denominated in a foreign currency that the Fund intends to
acquire. The Fund may sell a forward currency contract to lock in the U.S.
dollar equivalent of the proceeds from the anticipated sale of a security or a
dividend or interest payment denominated in a foreign currency. The Fund may
also use forward currency contracts to shift the Fund&#146;s exposure to foreign
currency exchange rate changes from one currency to another. For example, if
the Fund owns securities denominated in a foreign currency and Credit Suisse
believes that currency will decline relative to another currency, it might
enter into a forward currency contract to sell the appropriate amount of the
first foreign currency with payment to be made in the second currency. The Fund
may also purchase forward currency contracts to enhance income when Credit
Suisse anticipates that the foreign currency will appreciate in value but
securities denominated in that currency do not present attractive investment
opportunities.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund may also use forward currency contracts to hedge against a decline in the
value of existing investments denominated in foreign currency. Such a hedge
would tend to offset both positive and negative currency fluctuations, but would
not offset changes in security values caused by other factors. The Fund could
also hedge the position by entering into a forward currency contract to sell
another currency expected to perform similarly to the currency in which the
Fund&#146;s existing investments are denominated. This type of hedge could offer
advantages in terms of cost, yield or efficiency, but may not hedge currency
exposure as effectively as a simple hedge into U.S. dollars. This type of hedge
may result in losses if the currency used to hedge does not perform similarly
to the currency in which the hedged securities are denominated.</font></p>

Fund may also use forward currency contracts in one currency or a basket of
currencies to attempt to hedge against fluctuations in the value of securities

<div style="font-family:Times New Roman;">

<p align="center" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:center;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">contracts
are usually entered into on a principal basis, no fees or commissions are
involved. When the Fund enters into a forward currency contract, it relies on
the counterparty to make or take delivery of the underlying currency at the
maturity of the contract. Failure by the counterparty to do so would result in
the loss of some or all of any expected benefit of the transaction.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Secondary
markets generally do not exist for forward currency contracts, with the result
that closing transactions generally can be made for forward currency contracts
only by negotiating directly with the counterparty. Thus, there can be no assurance
that the Fund will in fact be able to close out a forward currency contract at
a favorable price prior to maturity. In addition, in the event of insolvency of
the counterparty, the Fund might be unable to close out a forward currency
contract. In either event, the Fund would continue to be subject to market risk
with respect to the position, and would continue to be required to maintain a
position in securities denominated in the foreign currency or to maintain cash
or liquid assets in a segregated account.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
precise matching of forward currency contract amounts and the value of the
securities involved generally will not be possible because the value of such
securities, measured in the foreign currency, will change after the forward
currency contract has been established. Thus, the Fund might need to purchase
or sell foreign currencies in the spot (cash) market to the extent such foreign
currencies are not covered by forward currency contracts. The projection of
short-term currency market movements is extremely difficult, and the successful
execution of a short-term hedging strategy is highly uncertain.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><i><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-style:italic;">Interest Rate Swaps. </font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Interest rate swaps involve
the exchange by the Fund with another party of their respective commitments to
pay or receive interest (for example, an exchange of floating rate payments for
fixed rate payments). The exchange commitments can involve payments to be made
in the same currency or in different currencies. The use of interest rate swaps
is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks
different from those associated with ordinary portfolio security transactions.
If Credit Suisse is incorrect in its forecasts of market values, interest rates
and other applicable factors, the investment performance of the Fund would
diminish compared with what it would have been if these investment techniques
were not used. Moreover, even if Credit Suisse is correct in its forecasts,
there is a risk that the swap position may correlate imperfectly with the price
of the asset or liability being hedged. There is no limit on the amount of
interest rate swap transactions that may be entered into by the Fund. These
transactions do not involve the delivery of securities or other underlying
assets or principal. Accordingly, the risk of loss with respect to interest
rate swaps is limited to the net amount of interest payments that the Fund is
contractually obligated to make. If the other party to an interest rate swap
defaults, the Fund&#146;s risk of loss consists of the net amount of interest
payments that the Fund contractually is entitled to receive.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><i><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-style:italic;">Credit Derivatives. </font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund may, but is not
obligated to, engage in credit derivative transactions. There are two broad
categories of credit derivatives: default price risk derivatives and market
spread derivatives. Default price risk derivatives are linked to the price of
reference securities or loans after a default by the issuer or borrower,
respectively. Market spread derivatives are based on the risk that changes in
market factors, such as credit spreads, can cause a decline in the value of a
security, loan or index. There are three basic transactional forms for credit
derivatives: swaps, options and structured instruments. The use of credit
derivatives is a highly specialized activity which involves strategies and
risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio security
transactions. If Credit Suisse is incorrect in its forecasts of default risks,
market spreads or other applicable factors, the investment performance of the
Fund would diminish compared with what it would have been if these techniques
were not used. Moreover, even if Credit Suisse is correct in its forecasts,
there is a risk that a credit derivative position, may correlate imperfectly
with the price of the asset or liability being hedged. There is no limit on the
amount of credit derivative transactions that may be entered into by the Fund.
The Fund&#146;s risk of loss in a credit derivative transaction varies with the form
of the transaction. For example, if the Fund purchases a default option on a
security, and if no default occurs with respect to the security, the Fund&#146;s
loss is limited to the premium it paid for the default option. In contrast, if
there is a default by the grantor of a default option, the Fund&#146;s loss will
include both the premium that it paid for the option and the decline in value
of the underlying security that the default option hedged.</font></p>

write (i.e., sell) call or put options with respect to specific securities. A
call option gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy, and obligates
the writer to sell, the underlying security or securities at the exercise price
at any time during the option period, or at a specific date. Conversely, a put
option gives the purchaser of the option the right to sell, and obligates the
writer to buy, the underlying security or securities at the exercise price at
any time during the option period, or at a specific date.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">written
by the Fund is covered when, among other things, cash or liquid assets having a
value equal to or greater than the exercise price of the option are placed in a
segregated account with the Fund&#146;s custodian to fulfill the obligation
undertaken. The principal reason for writing covered call and put options is to
realize, through the receipt of premiums, a greater return than would be
realized on the underlying securities alone. The Fund receives a premium from
writing covered call or put options which it retains whether or not the option
is exercised.</font></p>

<p align="center" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:center;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">There
is no assurance that sufficient trading interest to create a liquid secondary
market on a securities exchange will exist for any particular option or at any
particular time, and for some options no such secondary market may exist. A
liquid secondary market in an option may cease to exist for a variety of
reasons. In the past, for example, higher than anticipated trading activity or
order flow, or other unforeseen events, at times have rendered certain of the
clearing facilities inadequate and resulted in the institution of special
procedures, such as trading rotations, restrictions on certain types of orders
or trading halts or suspensions in one or more options. There can be no
assurance that similar events, or events that may otherwise interfere with the
timely execution of customers&#146; orders, will not recur. In such event, it might
not be possible to effect closing transactions in particular options. If, as a
covered call option writer, the Fund is unable to effect a closing purchase
transaction in a secondary market, it will not be able to sell the underlying
security until the option expires or it delivers the underlying security upon
exercise or it otherwise covers its position.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><i><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-style:italic;">Specific Options Transactions. </font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund may purchase and
sell call and put options on foreign currency. These options convey the right
to buy or sell the underlying currency at a price which is expected to be lower
or higher than the spot price of the currency at the time the option is exercised
or expires.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund may purchase and sell call and put options in respect of specific
securities (or groups or &#147;baskets&#148; of specific securities) or indices listed on
national securities exchanges or traded in the over-the-counter market. An
option on an index is similar to an option in respect of specific securities,
except that settlement does not occur by delivery of the securities comprising
he index. Instead, the option holder receives an amount of cash if the closing
level of the index upon which the option is based is greater than, in the case
of a call, or less than, in the case of a put, the exercise price of the
option. Thus, the effectiveness of purchasing or writing index options will
depend upon price movements in the level of the index rather than the price of
a particular security.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund also may purchase cash-settled options on swaps in pursuit of its
investment objectives. A cash settled option on a swap gives the purchaser the
right, but not the obligation, in return for the premium paid, to receive an
amount of cash equal to the value of the underlying swap as of the exercise
date. These options typically are purchased in privately negotiated
transactions from financial institutions, including securities brokerage firms.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Successful
use by the Fund of options will be subject to the ability of Credit Suisse to
predict correctly movements in the prices of individual securities, the
securities markets generally, foreign currencies, or interest rates. To the
extent such predictions are incorrect, the Fund may incur losses.</font></p>

of opportunities in the area of options and futures contracts and options on
futures contracts and any other Derivatives that are not presently contemplated
for use by the Fund or that are not currently available but that may be
developed, to the extent such opportunities are both consistent with the Fund&#146;s
investment objectives and legally permissible for the Fund.</font></p>

securities on a forward commitment or when-issued basis, which means that
delivery and payment take place a number of days after the date of the
commitment to purchase. The payment obligation and the interest rate receivable
on a forward commitment or when-issued security are fixed when the Fund enters
into the commitment, but the Fund does not make payment until it receives
delivery from the counterparty. The Fund will commit to purchase such
securities only with the intention of actually acquiring the securities, but
the Fund may sell these securities before the settlement date if it is deemed
advisable. The Fund will set aside in a segregated account of the Fund
permissible liquid assets at least equal at all times to the amount of the
commitments.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Securities
purchased on a forward commitment or when-issued basis are subject to changes
in value (generally changing in the same way, i.e., appreciating when interest
rates decline and depreciating when interest rates rise) based upon the
public&#146;s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer and changes, real or
anticipated, in the level of interest rates. Securities purchased on a forward
commitment or when-issued basis may expose the Fund to risks because they may
experience such fluctuations prior to their actual delivery. Purchasing
securities on a when-issued basis can involve the additional risk that the
yield available in the market when the delivery takes place actually may be
higher than that obtained in the transaction itself. Purchasing securities on a
forward commitment or</font></p>

affairs are managed under the direction of the Fund&#146;s Board of Trustees, including
the supervision of duties performed for the Fund under the investment advisory
agreement with Credit Suisse (the &#147;Investment Advisory Agreement&#148;).&nbsp; The
Trustees set broad policies for the Fund and choose its officers, who serve at
the Board&#146;s discretion.&nbsp; The Board currently consists of five Trustees,
all of which are not &#147;interested persons&#148; as defined in Section&nbsp;2(a)(19)
of the 1940 Act (&#147;Independent Trustees&#148;).&nbsp;The Board of Trustees is divided
into three classes, each having a term of three years. Each year the term of
office of one class&nbsp;expires and the successor or successors elected to
such class&nbsp;will serve for a three-year term. Shareholders who wish to send
communications to the Board should send them to the address of the Fund (Eleven
Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10010) and to the attention of the Board c/o
the Secretary of the Fund. All such communications will be directed to the
Trustee&#146;s attention.</font></p>

Committee, which is composed of Trustees who are not interested persons of the
Fund and who are independent (as such term is defined by the listing standards
of the New York Stock Exchange Amex (&#147;NYSE Amex&#148;)). The Audit Committee
convened four times during the fiscal year ended October&nbsp;31, 2009. The
Audit Committee advises the full Board with respect to accounting, auditing and
financial matters affecting the Fund. Pursuant to the Audit Committee Charter
adopted by the Fund&#146;s Board (a copy of which was included as Appendix B to the
Fund&#146;s proxy statement dated December&nbsp;28, 2007), the Audit Committee is
responsible for conferring with the Fund&#146;s independent registered public
accounting firm, reviewing annual financial statements, approving the selection
of the Fund&#146;s independent registered public accounting firm and overseeing the
Fund&#146;s internal controls. The Fund&#146;s Audit Committee Charter also contains
provisions relating to the pre-approval by the Audit Committee of certain
non-audit services to be provided by the Fund&#146;s independent registered public
accounting firm to the Fund and to Credit Suisse and certain of its affiliates.</font></p>

Committee met three times during the fiscal year ended October&nbsp;31, 2009.
The Nominating Committee selects and nominates new Trustees. The Board has
adopted a Nominating Committee Charter (a copy of which was included as
Appendix A to the Fund&#146;s proxy statement dated December&nbsp;28, 2007). In
nominating candidates, the Nominating Committee will take into consideration
such factors as it deems appropriate. These factors may include judgment,
skill, diversity, experience with investment companies and other organizations
of comparable purpose, complexity, size and subject to similar legal
restrictions and oversight, the interplay of the candidate&#146;s experience with
the experience of other Board members, and the extent to which the candidate
would be a desirable addition to the Board and any committees thereof. With
respect to diversity, the Nominating Committee considers whether a candidate&#146;s
background, experience and skills will contribute to the diversity of the
Board.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Board believes that each Trustee&#146;s experience,
qualifications, attributes or skills on an individual basis and in combination
with those of the other Trustees lead to the conclusion that each Trustee
should serve in such capacity.&#160; Among the
attributes common to all Trustees are their ability to review critically,
evaluate, question and discuss information provided to them, to interact
effectively with the other Trustees, Credit Suisse, other service providers,
counsel and the </font><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">independent registered public accounting firm, and to exercise effective business judgment
in the performance of their duties as Trustees.&#160;
A Trustee&#146;s ability to perform his or her duties effectively may have
been attained through the Trustee&#146;s business, consulting, public service and/or
academic positions; experience from service as a board member of the Fund and
the other funds in the Fund Complex, other investment funds, public companies,
or non-profit entities or other organizations; educational background or
professional training; and/or other life experiences.&#160; In addition to these shared characteristics,

counsel and other Trustees generally between meetings. The Chairman serves as a
key point person for dealings between management and the Trustees.&#160; The Chairman may also perform such other
functions as may be delegated by the Board from time to time. The Board reviews
matters related to its leadership structure annually.&#160; The Board has determined that the Board&#146;s
leadership structure is appropriate because
it allows the Board to exercise informed and independent judgment over the
matters under its purview and it allocates areas of responsibility among
committees of Trustees and the full Board in a manner that enhances effective
oversight.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund is subject to a number of risks, including investment, compliance, operational
and valuation risks, among others.&#160; Risk
oversight forms part of the Board&#146;s general oversight of the Fund and is
addressed as part of various Board and committee activities.&#160; Day-to-day risk management functions are
subsumed within the responsibilities of Credit Suisse and other service
providers (depending on the nature of the risk), which carry out the Fund&#146;s
investment management and business affairs.&#160;
Credit Suisse and other service providers employ a variety of processes,
procedures and controls to identify various events or circumstances that give
rise to risks, to lessen the probability of their occurrence and/or to mitigate
the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur.&#160; Each of Credit Suisse and other service
providers have their own independent interest in risk management, and their
policies and methods of risk management will depend on their functions and
business models.&#160; The Board recognizes
that it is not possible to identify all of the risks that may affect the Fund
or to develop processes and controls to eliminate or mitigate their occurrence
or effects.&#160; As part of its regular
oversight of the Fund, the Board interacts with and reviews reports from, among
others, Credit Suisse, the Fund&#146;s Chief Compliance Officer, the Fund&#146;s
independent registered public accounting firm and counsel, as appropriate,
regarding risks faced by the Fund and applicable risk controls.&#160; The Board may, at any time and in its
discretion, change the manner in which it conducts risk oversight.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">It
is possible that conflicts of interest may arise in connection with the
portfolio managers&#146; management of the Fund&#146;s investments on the one hand and the
investments of other accounts on the other. For example, the portfolio managers
may have conflicts of interest in allocating management time, resources and
investment opportunities among the Fund and other accounts they advise. In
addition due to differences in the investment strategies or restrictions
between the Fund and the other accounts, the portfolio managers may take action
with respect to another account that differs from the action taken with respect
to the Fund.&#160; Credit Suisse has adopted
policies and procedures that are designed to minimize the effects of these
conflicts.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If
Credit Suisse believes that the purchase or sale of a security is in the best
interest of more than one client, it may (but is not obligated to) aggregate
the orders to be sold or purchased to seek favorable execution or lower
brokerage commissions, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and
regulations.&#160; Credit Suisse may aggregate
orders if all participating client accounts benefit equally (i.e., all receive
an average price of the aggregated orders). In the event Credit Suisse
aggregates an order for participating accounts, the method of allocation will
generally be determined prior to the trade execution. Although no specific
method of allocation of transactions (as well as expenses incurred in the
transactions) is expected to be used, allocations will be designed to ensure
that over time all clients receive fair treatment consistent with Credit
Suisse&#146;s fiduciary duty to its clients (including its duty to seek to obtain
best execution of client trades). The accounts aggregated may include
registered and unregistered investment companies managed by Credit Suisse&#146;s
affiliates and accounts in which Credit Suisse&#146;s officers, directors, agents,
employees or affiliates own interests. Applicant may not be able to aggregate
securities transactions for clients who direct the use of a particular
broker-dealer, and the client also may not benefit from any improved execution
or lower commissions that may be available for such transactions.</font></p>

Fund&#146;s performance, assets held in the Fund and other accounts managed by each
of them, business growth, team work, management, corporate citizenship,&nbsp;etc.</font></p>

Suisse is responsible for establishing, reviewing and, where necessary,
modifying the Fund&#146;s investment program to achieve its investment
objectives.&#160; Purchases and sales of newly
issued portfolio securities are usually principal transactions without
brokerage commissions effected directly with the issuer or with an underwriter
acting as principal.&#160; Other purchases and
sales may be effected on a securities exchange or over-the-counter, depending
on where it appears that the best price or execution will be obtained.&#160; The purchase price paid by the Fund to
underwriters of newly issued securities usually includes a concession paid by
the issuer to the underwriter, and purchases of securities from dealers, acting
as either principals or agents in the after market, are normally executed
at&nbsp;a&nbsp;price between the bid and asked price, which includes a dealer&#146;s
mark-up or mark-down.&#160; Transactions on
U.S. stock exchanges and some foreign stock exchanges involve the payment of
negotiated brokerage commissions.&#160; On
exchanges on which commissions are negotiated, the cost of transactions may
vary among different brokers.&#160; On most
foreign exchanges, commissions are generally fixed.&#160; There is generally no stated commission in
the case of securities traded in domestic or foreign over-the-counter markets,
but the price of securities traded in over-the-counter markets includes an
undisclosed commission or mark-up.&#160; U.S.
government securities are generally purchased from underwriters or dealers,
although certain newly issued U.S. government securities may be purchased
directly from the U.S. Treasury or from the issuing agency or
instrumentality.&#160; No brokerage
commissions are typically paid on purchases and sales of U.S. government
securities.&#160; For the 2009, 2008 and 2007
fiscal years, the Fund paid $363, $1,073 and $241, respectively, in brokerage
commissions.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Credit
Suisse will select portfolio investments and effect transactions for the
Fund.&#160; In selecting broker-dealers,
Credit Suisse does business exclusively with those broker-dealers that, in
Credit Suisse&#146;s judgment, can be expected to provide the best service.&#160; The service has two main aspects:&#160; the execution of buy and sell orders and the
provision of research.&#160; In negotiating
commissions with broker-dealers, Credit Suisse will pay no more for execution
and research services than it considers either, or both together, to be
worth.&#160; The worth of execution service
depends on the ability of the broker-dealer to minimize costs of securities
purchased and to maximize prices obtained for securities sold.&#160; The worth of research depends on its
usefulness in optimizing portfolio composition and its changes over time.&#160; Commissions for the combination of execution
and research services that meet Credit Suisse&#146;s standards may be higher than
for execution services alone or for services that fall below Credit Suisse&#146;s
standards.&#160; Credit Suisse believes that
these arrangements may benefit all clients and not necessarily only the accounts
in which the particular investment transactions occur that are so
executed.&#160; Further, Credit Suisse will
receive only brokerage or research services in connection with securities
transactions that are consistent with the &#147;safe harbor&#148; provisions of Section&nbsp;28(e)&nbsp;of
the 1934 Act when paying such higher commissions.&#160; Research services may include research on
specific industries or companies, macroeconomic analyses, analyses of national
and international events and trends, evaluations of thinly traded securities,
computerized trading screening techniques and securities ranking services, and
general research services.&#160; Research
received from brokers or dealers is supplemental to Credit Suisse&#146;s own
research program.&#160; For the fiscal year
ended October&nbsp;31, 2009, the Fund paid no brokerage commissions to brokers
and dealers who provided such research services.</font></p>

orders for transactions in securities or options on behalf of the Fund are
placed by the Investment Adviser with broker-dealers that it selects, including
Credit Suisse Asset Management Securities,&nbsp;Inc. (&#147;CSAMSI&#148;), Credit Suisse
Securities (USA) LLC, and other affiliates of Credit Suisse Group AG.&#160; The Fund may utilize CSAMSI or other
affiliates of Credit Suisse Group AG in connection with a purchase or sale of
securities when the Investment Adviser believes that the charge for the
transaction does not exceed usual and customary levels and when doing so is
consistent with guidelines adopted by the Board.&#160; The Fund did not pay any commissions to affiliated
broker-dealers during the fiscal years ended October&nbsp;31, 2007, 2008 and
2009, respectively.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Investment
decisions for the Fund concerning specific portfolio securities are made
independently from those for other clients advised by Credit Suisse.&#160; Such other investment clients may invest in
the same securities as the Fund.&#160; When
purchases or sales of the same security are made at substantially the same time
on behalf of such other clients, transactions are averaged as to price and
available investments allocated as to amount, in a manner which Credit Suisse
believes to be equitable to each client, including the Fund.&#160; In some instances, this investment procedure
may adversely affect the price paid or received by the Fund or the size of the
position obtained or sold for the Fund.&#160;
To the extent permitted by law, Credit Suisse may aggregate the
securities to be sold or purchased for the Fund with those to be sold or
purchased for such other investment clients in order to obtain best execution.</font></p>

traded on a foreign securities exchange, the Fund will deal directly with the
dealers who make a market in the securities involved, except in those
circumstances where better prices and execution are available elsewhere.&#160; Such dealers usually are acting as principal
for their own account.&#160; On occasion,
securities may be purchased</font></p>

the Code, so that it will not pay U.S. federal income tax on income and capital
gains distributed to shareholders. In order to qualify as a regulated
investment company under Subchapter M of the Code, the Fund must, among other
things, (i)&nbsp;derive at least 90% of its gross income for each taxable year
from dividends, interest, payments with respect to certain securities loans,
gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or foreign
currencies, or other income (including gains from options, futures, and forward
contracts) derived with respect to its business of investing in such stock,
securities or currencies, and net income derived from an interest in a
qualified publicly traded partnership (as defined in Section&nbsp;851(h)&nbsp;of
the Code) (the &#147;90% income test&#148;) and (ii)&nbsp;diversify its holdings so that,
at the end of each quarter of each taxable year: (a)&nbsp;at least 50% of the
value of the Fund&#146;s total assets is represented by (1)&nbsp;cash and cash
items, U.S. government securities, securities of other regulated investment
companies, and (2)&nbsp;other securities, with such other securities limited,
in respect of any one issuer, to an amount not greater than 5% of the value of
the Fund&#146;s total assets and to not more than 10% of the outstanding voting
securities of such issuer and (b)&nbsp;not more than 25% of the value of the
Fund&#146;s total assets is invested in (1)&nbsp;the securities (other than U.S.
government securities and securities of other regulated investment companies)
of any one issuer, (2)&nbsp;the securities (other than securities of other

defined in the Code (which includes, among other things, dividends, taxable
interest, and the excess of any net short-term capital gains over net long-term
capital losses, as reduced by certain deductible expenses) without regard to
the deduction for dividends paid and (ii)&nbsp;90% of the excess of its gross
tax-exempt interest income, if any, over certain disallowed deductions, the
Fund generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any income of
the Fund, including &#147;net capital gain&#148; (the excess of net long-term capital
gain over net short-term capital loss), distributed to shareholders. However,
if the Fund meets such distribution requirements, but chooses to retain some
portion of its taxable income or gains, it generally will be subject to U.S.
federal income tax at regular corporate rates on the amount retained. The Fund
may designate certain amounts retained as undistributed net capital gain in a
notice to its shareholders, who (i)&nbsp;will be required to include in income
for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as long-term capital gain, their
proportionate shares of the undistributed amount so designated, (ii)&nbsp;will
be entitled to credit their proportionate shares of the income tax paid by the
Fund on that undistributed amount against their federal income tax liabilities
and to claim refunds to the extent such credits exceed their liabilities and
(iii)&nbsp;will be entitled to increase their tax basis, for federal income tax
purposes, in their shares by an amount equal to the excess of the amount of
undistributed net capital gain included in their respective income over their
respective income tax</font></p>

The Fund intends to distribute at least annually all or substantially all of
its investment company taxable income (computed without regard to the
dividends-paid deduction), net tax-exempt interest income, and net capital
gain.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If,
for any taxable year, the Fund does not qualify as a regulated investment
company or does not satisfy the 90% distribution requirement, it will be
treated as a U.S. corporation subject to U.S. federal income tax, thereby
subjecting any income earned by the Fund to tax at the corporate level and to a
further tax at the shareholder level when such income is distributed.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Code imposes a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the Fund to the extent it does
not distribute by the end of any calendar year at least the sum of (i)&nbsp;98%
of its taxable ordinary income for that year and (ii)&nbsp;98% of its capital
gain net income (both long-term and short-term) for the one-year period ending,
as a general rule, on October&nbsp;31 of that year.&#160; For this purpose, however, any ordinary
income or capital gain net income retained by the Fund that is subject to
corporate income tax will be considered to have been distributed by
year-end.&#160; In addition, the minimum
amounts that must be distributed in any year to avoid the excise tax will be
increased or decreased to reflect any underdistribution or overdistribution, as
the case may be, from the previous year.&#160;
The Fund anticipates that it will pay such dividends and will make such
distributions as are necessary in order to avoid the application of this excise
tax.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
IRS has taken the position that if a regulated investment company has two or
more classes of shares, it must designate distributions made to each class in
any year as consisting of no more than such class&#146;s proportionate share of
particular types of income, including tax-exempt interest, net capital gains,
and other income subject to federal income tax. A class&#146;s proportionate share
of a particular type of income is determined according to the percentage of
total dividends paid by the regulated investment company to such class.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Existing
authorities do not specifically address whether dividends that are paid
following the close of a taxable year, but that are treated for tax purposes as
derived from the income of such prior taxable year, are treated as dividends
paid during such prior taxable year for purposes of determining each class&#146;s
proportionate share of a particular type of income. The Fund currently intends
to treat such dividends as having been paid in the prior taxable year for
purposes of determining each class&#146;s proportionate share of a particular type
of income with respect to such prior taxable year. Existing authorities also do
not specifically address the allocation of taxable income among the dividends
paid to holders of a class of shares during or with respect to a taxable year.
It is possible that the IRS could disagree with the Fund&#146;s position concerning
the treatment of dividends paid after the close of a taxable year, in which
case the IRS could attempt to recharacterize a portion of the dividends paid
and designated by the Fund as exempt-interest dividends as consisting instead
of capital gains or other taxable income. If the IRS were to prevail with
respect to any such attempted recharacterization, holders of that class of
shares could be subject to tax on amounts so recharacterized and the Fund could
be subject to federal income and excise tax.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund declares a dividend from net investment income (excluding capital gains)
each month. Dividends are normally paid on the last business day of the month
or shortly thereafter. The Fund normally distributes any net short-term and
long-term capital gains in December. Dividends from income and/or capital gains
may also be paid at such other times as may be necessary for the Fund to avoid
U.S. federal income or excise tax.</font></p>

a shareholder specifies otherwise, all distributions from the Fund to that
shareholder will be automatically reinvested in additional full and fractional
shares of the Fund. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, all dividends from
the Fund generally are taxable whether a shareholder takes them in cash or
reinvests them in additional shares of the Fund. In general, assuming that the
Fund has sufficient earnings and profits, dividends from net investment income
that is not tax exempt and from net short-term capital gains are taxable as
ordinary income.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Recently
enacted legislation imposes a 3.8% excise tax on net investment income,
including dividends, interest and net capital gains, of individuals with annual
income of $200,000 or more ($250,000 if married, filing jointly) beginning in
2013.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Distributions
by the Fund in excess of the Fund&#146;s current and accumulated earnings and
profits will be treated as a return of capital to the extent of (and in
reduction of) the shareholder&#146;s tax basis in its shares and any such amount in
excess of that basis will be treated as gain from the sale of shares, as
discussed below.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Distributions
from net capital gains, if any, that are designated as capital gain dividends
by the Fund are taxable as long-term capital gains for U.S. federal income tax
purposes without regard to the length of time the shareholder has held shares
of the Fund. Capital gain dividends distributed by the Fund to individual and
certain other noncorporate shareholders generally will qualify for reduced U.S.
federal income tax rates (currently, a maximum rate of 15%, with lower rates
applying to taxpayers in the 10% and 15% rate brackets) on long-term capital
gains, subject to certain limited exceptions. A shareholder should also be
aware that the benefits of the favorable tax rate applicable to long-term
capital gains and qualified dividend income may be affected by the application
of the alternative minimum tax to individual shareholders. Under current law,
the reduced maximum 15% U.S. federal income tax rate on qualified dividend
income and long-term capital gains will not apply in taxable years beginning
after December&nbsp;31, 2010.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
U.S. federal income tax status of all distributions will be reported to
shareholders annually.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Although
dividends generally will be treated as distributed when paid, any dividend
declared by the Fund in October, November&nbsp;or December&nbsp;and payable to
shareholders of record in such a month that is paid during the following
January&nbsp;will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as received
by shareholders on December&nbsp;31 of the calendar year in which it was
declared. In addition, certain other distributions made after the close of a
taxable year of the Fund may be &#147;spilled back&#148; and treated for certain purposes
as paid by the Fund during such taxable year. In such case, shareholders
generally will be treated as having received such dividends in the taxable year
in which the distributions were actually made. For purposes of calculating the
amount of a regulated investment company&#146;s undistributed income and gain
subject to the 4% excise tax described above, such &#147;spilled back&#148; dividends are
treated as paid by the regulated investment company when they are actually
paid.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">For
U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Fund is permitted to carry forward a net
capital loss for any year to offset its capital gains, if any, for up to eight
years following the year of the loss. To the extent subsequent capital gains
are offset by such losses, they would not result in U.S. federal income tax
liability to the Fund and may not be distributed as such to shareholders. The
Fund may not carry forward any losses other than net capital losses.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Consequently,
subsequent distributions by the Fund with respect to these shares from such
appreciation or gains may be taxable to such investor even if the net asset
value of the investor&#146;s shares is, as a result of the distributions, reduced

represent a return of a portion of the investment.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Sales
and exchanges generally are taxable events for shareholders that are subject to
tax. Shareholders should consult their own tax advisers with reference to their
individual circumstances to determine whether any particular transaction in
fund shares is properly treated as a sale for tax purposes, as the following
discussion assumes, and the tax treatment of any gains or losses recognized in
such transactions. In general, if fund shares are sold, the shareholder will recognize
gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale
and the shareholder&#146;s adjusted basis in the shares. Such gain or loss generally
will be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if the shares were held for
more than one year and otherwise generally will be treated as short-term
capital gain or loss.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Losses
on sales or other dispositions of shares may be disallowed under &#147;wash sale&#148;
rules&nbsp;in the event of other investments in the Fund (including those made
pursuant to reinvestment of dividends and/or capital gain distributions) within
a period of 61 days beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after a sale or
other disposition of shares. In such a case, the disallowed portion of any loss
generally would be included in the U.S. federal tax basis of the shares
acquired in the other investments.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under
Treasury regulations, if a shareholder recognizes a loss with respect to fund
shares of $2 million or more for an individual shareholder, or $10 million or
more for a corporate shareholder, in any single taxable year (or of certain
greater amounts over a combination of years), the shareholder must file with
the IRS a disclosure statement on Form&nbsp;8886. Shareholders who own
portfolio securities directly are in many cases excepted from this reporting
requirement but, under current guidance, shareholders of regulated investment
companies are not excepted. A shareholder who fails to make the required
disclosure to the IRS may be subject to substantial penalties. The fact that a
loss is reportable under these regulations does not affect the legal
determination of whether or not the taxpayer&#146;s treatment of the loss is proper.
Shareholders should consult with their tax advisers to determine the
applicability of these regulations in light of their individual circumstances.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Shareholders
that are exempt from U.S. federal income tax, such as retirement plans that are
qualified under Section&nbsp;401 of the Code, generally are not subject to U.S.
federal income tax on otherwise-taxable fund dividends or distributions, or on
sales or exchanges of fund shares unless the Fund shares are &#147;debt-financed
property&#148; within the meaning of the Code. However, in the case of fund shares
held through a non-qualified deferred compensation plan, fund dividends and
distributions other than exempt-interest dividends received by the plan and
sales and exchanges of fund shares by the plan generally are taxable to the
employer sponsoring such plan in accordance with the U.S. federal income tax
laws that are generally applicable to shareholders receiving such dividends or
distributions from regulated investment companies such as the Fund.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">A
plan participant whose retirement plan invests in the Fund, whether such plan
is qualified or not, generally is not taxed on any fund dividends or
distributions received by the plan or on sales or exchanges of fund shares by
the plan for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, distributions to plan
participants from a retirement plan account generally are taxable as ordinary
income, and different tax treatment, including penalties on certain excess
contributions and deferrals, certain pre-retirement and post-retirement
distributions and certain prohibited transactions, is accorded to accounts
maintained as qualified retirement plans. Shareholders should consult their tax
advisers for more information.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund may invest to a significant extent in debt obligations that are in the
lowest rating categories or that are unrated, including debt obligations of
issuers not currently paying interest or that are in default. Investments in
debt obligations that are at risk of or in default present special tax issues
for the Fund. Federal income tax rules&nbsp;are not entirely clear about issues
such as when the Fund may cease to accrue interest, original issue discount or
market discount, when and to what extent deductions may be taken for bad debts
or worthless securities, how payments received on obligations in default should
be allocated between principal and interest and whether certain exchanges of
debt obligations in a workout context are taxable. These and other issues will
be addressed by the Fund, in the event it invests in or holds such securities,
in order to seek to ensure that it distributes sufficient income to preserve
its status as a regulated investment company and does not become subject to
U.S. federal income or excise tax.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If
the Fund invests in certain pay-in-kind securities, zero coupon securities,
deferred interest securities or, in general, any other securities with original
issue discount (or with market discount if the Fund elects to include market
discount in income currently), the Fund generally must accrue income on such
investments for each taxable year, which generally will be prior to the receipt
of the corresponding cash payments. However, the Fund must distribute to its
shareholders, at least annually, all or substantially all of its investment
company taxable income (determined without regard to the deduction for dividends
paid) and net tax-exempt income, including such accrued income, to qualify to
be treated as a regulated investment company under the Code and avoid U.S.
federal income and excise taxes. Therefore, the Fund may have to dispose of its
portfolio securities, potentially under disadvantageous circumstances, to
generate cash, or may have to borrow the cash, to satisfy distribution
requirements. Such a disposition of securities may potentially result in
additional taxable gain or loss to the Fund.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Options
written or purchased and futures contracts entered into by the Fund on certain
securities, indices and foreign currencies, as well as certain forward foreign
currency contracts, may cause the Fund to recognize gains or losses from
marking-to-market even though such options may not have lapsed or been closed
out or exercised, or such futures or forward contracts may not have been
performed or closed out. The tax rules&nbsp;applicable to these contracts may
affect the characterization of some capital gains and losses realized by the
Fund as long-term or short-term. Certain options, futures and forward contracts
relating to foreign currency may be subject to Section&nbsp;988 of the Code,
and accordingly may produce ordinary income or loss. Additionally, the Fund may
be required to recognize gain if an option, futures contract, forward contract,
short sale or other transaction that is not subject to the mark-to-market rules&nbsp;is
treated as a &#147;constructive sale&#148; of an &#147;appreciated financial position&#148; held by
the Fund under Section&nbsp;1259 of the Code. Any net mark-to-market gains
and/or gains from constructive sales may also have to be distributed to satisfy
the distribution requirements referred to above even though the Fund may
receive no corresponding cash amounts, possibly requiring the disposition of
portfolio securities or borrowing to obtain the necessary cash. Such a
disposition of securities may potentially result in additional taxable gain or
loss to the Fund. Losses on certain options, futures or forward contracts and/or
offsetting positions (portfolio securities or other positions with respect to
which the Fund&#146;s risk of loss is substantially diminished by one or more
options, futures or forward contracts) may also be deferred under the tax
straddle rules&nbsp;of the Code, which may also affect the characterization of
capital gains or losses from straddle positions and certain successor positions
as long-term or short-term. Certain tax elections may be available that would
enable the Fund to ameliorate some adverse effects of the tax rules&nbsp;described
in this paragraph. The tax rules&nbsp;applicable to options, futures, forward
contracts and straddles may affect the amount, timing and character of the
Fund&#146;s income and gains or losses and hence of its distributions to
shareholders.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As
a result of entering into swap contracts, the Fund may make or receive periodic
net payments.&#160; The Fund may also make or
receive a payment when a swap is terminated prior to maturity through an
assignment of the swap or other closing transaction.&#160; Periodic net payments will generally
constitute ordinary income or deductions, while termination of a swap will
generally result in capital gain or loss (which will be a long-term capital
gain or loss if the fund has been a party to the swap for more than one year).&#160; With respect to certain types of swaps, the
Fund may be required to currently recognize income or loss with respect to
future payments on such swaps or may elect under certain circumstances to mark
such swaps to market annually for tax purposes as ordinary income or loss.&#160; The tax treatment of many types of credit
default swaps is uncertain.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund may be subject to withholding and other taxes imposed by foreign
countries, including taxes on interest, dividends and capital gains with
respect to its investments in those countries. Any such taxes would, if
imposed, reduce the yield on or return from those investments. Tax conventions
between certain countries and the U.S. may reduce or eliminate such taxes in
some cases. The Fund does not expect to satisfy the requirements for passing
through to its shareholders any share of foreign taxes paid by the Fund, with
the result that shareholders will not include such taxes in their gross incomes
and will not be entitled to a tax deduction or credit for such taxes on their
own tax returns.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Fund is required to withhold (as &#147;backup withholding&#148;) a certain percentage of
reportable payments, including dividends, capital gain distributions and the
proceeds of redemptions or repurchases of fund shares paid to shareholders who
have not complied with certain IRS regulations. In order to avoid this
withholding requirement, shareholders, other than certain exempt entities, must
certify on their Account Applications, or on separate IRS Forms W-9, that the
Social Security Number or other Taxpayer Identification Number they provide is
their correct number and that they are not currently subject to backup
withholding, or that they are exempt from backup withholding. The Fund may

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
description of certain federal tax provisions above relates only to U.S.
federal income tax consequences for shareholders who are U.S. persons, i.e.,
generally, U.S. citizens or residents or U.S. corporations, partnerships,
trusts or estates, and who are subject to U.S. federal income tax and hold
their shares as capital assets. Except as otherwise provided, this description
does not address the special tax rules&nbsp;that may be applicable to
particular types of investors, such as financial institutions, insurance
companies, securities dealers, other regulated investment companies, or
tax-exempt or tax-deferred plans, accounts or entities. Investors other than
U.S. persons may be subject to different U.S. federal income tax treatment,
including a non-resident alien U.S. withholding tax at the rate of 30% or any
lower applicable treaty rate on amounts treated as ordinary dividends from the
Fund (other than, for taxable years of the Fund beginning on or before December&nbsp;31,
2009, certain dividends designated by the Fund as (i)&nbsp;interest-related
dividends, to the extent such dividends are derived from the Fund&#146;s &#147;qualified
net interest income,&#148; or (ii)&nbsp;short-term capital gain dividends, to the
extent such dividends are derived from the Fund&#146;s &#147;qualified short-term gain&#148;) or,
in certain circumstances, unless an effective IRS Form&nbsp;W-8BEN or other
authorized withholding certificate is on file, to backup withholding at the
rate of 28% on certain other payments from the Fund. &#147;Qualified net interest
income&#148; is the Fund&#146;s net income derived from U.S.-source interest and original
issue discount, subject to certain exceptions and limitations. &#147;Qualified
short-term gain&#148; generally means the excess of the net short-term capital gain
of the Fund for the taxable year over its net long-term capital loss, if any.
Backup withholding will not be applied to payments that have been subject to
the 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) withholding tax on shareholders who
are neither citizens nor residents of the United States. Shareholders should
consult their own tax advisers on these matters and on state, local, foreign
and other applicable tax laws.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If,
as anticipated, the Fund qualifies as a regulated investment company under the
Code, it will not be required to pay any Massachusetts income, corporate excise
or franchise taxes or any Delaware corporation income tax.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
exemption of exempt-interest dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes
does not necessarily result in exemption under the tax laws of any state or
local taxing authority, since those laws vary with respect to the taxation of
such income. Many states exempt from tax that portion of an exempt-interest
dividend which represents interest received by the Fund on that state&#146;s
securities, subject in some cases to compliance with concentration and/or
reporting requirements, which the Fund makes no commitment to seek to satisfy.
However, the Fund will report annually to its shareholders the percentage of
interest income received by the Fund during the preceding year on federally tax-exempt
obligations indicating, on a state-by-state basis only, the source of such
income. Each shareholder is advised to consult his own tax adviser regarding
the exemption, if any, of exempt-interest dividends under the state and local
tax laws applicable to the shareholder.</font></p>

state income (and possibly local income and/or intangible property) tax
exemption is generally available to the extent the Fund&#146;s distributions are
derived from interest on (or, in the case of intangible property taxes, the
value of its assets is attributable to) certain U.S. government obligations,
provided in some states that certain thresholds for holdings of such
obligations and/or reporting requirements are satisfied. The Fund will not seek
to satisfy any threshold or reporting requirements that may apply in particular
taxing jurisdictions, although the Fund may in its sole discretion provide
relevant information to shareholders.</font></p>

regarding timely payment is strong.&#160;
Those issues determined to possess extremely strong safety

paper rated A-2 is satisfactory, but the relative degree of safety is not as

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
rating Prime-1 is the highest commercial paper rating assigned by Moody&#146;s
Investors Service,&nbsp;Inc. (&#147;Moody&#146;s&#148;).&#160;
Issuers rated Prime-1 (or related supporting institutions)&nbsp;are
considered to have a superior capacity for repayment of short-term promissory
obligations.&#160; Issuers rated Prime-2 (or
related supporting institutions)&nbsp;are considered to have a strong capacity
for repayment of short-term promissory obligations.&#160; This will normally be evidenced by many of
the characteristics of issuers rated Prime-1 but to a lesser degree.&#160; Earnings trends and coverage ratios, while
sound, will be more subject to variation.&#160;
Capitalization characteristics, while still appropriate, may be more
affected by external conditions.&#160; Ample
alternative liquidity is maintained.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">AAA
- This is the highest rating assigned by S&amp;P to a debt obligation and
indicates an extremely strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">AA
- Debt rated AA has a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal
and differs from AAA issues only in small degree.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">A
- Debt rated A has a strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal
although they are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes
in circumstances and economic conditions than debt in higher-rated categories.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">BBB
- This is the lowest investment grade.&#160;
Debt rated BBB has an adequate capacity to pay interest and repay
principal.&#160; Although it normally exhibits
adequate protection parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing
circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay interest
and repay principal for bonds in this category than for bonds in higher rated
categories.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">BB,
B, CCC, CC, C - Debt rated BB, B, CCC, CC and C is regarded, on balance, as
predominately speculative with respect to capacity to pay interest and repay
principal in accordance with the terms of the obligation.&#160; BB represents a lower degree of speculation
than B and C the highest degree of speculation.&#160;
While such bonds will likely have some quality and protective
characteristics, these are outweighed by large uncertainties or major risk
exposures to adverse conditions.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">BB
- Debt rated BB has less near-term vulnerability to default than other
speculative issues.&#160; However, they face
major ongoing uncertainties or exposure to adverse business, financial, or
economic conditions, which could lead to inadequate capacity to meet timely
interest and principal payments.&#160; The BB
rating category is also used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied BBB rating.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">B
- Debt rated B has a greater vulnerability to default but currently has the
capacity to meet interest payments and principal repayments.&#160; Adverse business, financial, or economic
conditions will likely impair capacity or willingness to pay interest and repay
principal.&#160; The B rating category is also
used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied
BB or BB- rating.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">CCC
- Debt rated CCC has a currently identifiable vulnerability to default and is
dependent upon favorable business, financial and economic conditions to meet
timely payment of interest and repayment of principal.&#160; In the event of adverse business, financial
or economic conditions, it is not likely to have the capacity to pay interest
and repay principal.&#160; The CCC rating
category is also used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an
actual or implied B or B- rating.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">CC
- This rating is typically applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">C
- This rating is typically applied to debt subordinated to senior debt which is
assigned an actual or implied CCC- debt rating.&#160;
The C rating may be used to cover a situation where a bankruptcy
petition has been filed, but debt service payments are continued.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">To
provide more detailed indications of credit quality, the ratings from &#147;AA&#148; to
&#147;CCC&#148; may be modified by the addition of a plus or minus sign to show relative
standing within this major rating category.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">D
- Debt rated D is in payment default.&#160;
The D rating category is used when interest payments or principal
payments are not made on the date due even if the applicable grace period has
not expired, unless S&amp;P believes that such payments will be made during
such grace period.&#160; The D rating also
will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition if debt service payments
are jeopardized.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
following summarizes the ratings used by Moody&#146;s for corporate bonds:</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Aaa
- Bonds that are rated Aaa are judged to be of the best quality.&#160; They carry the smallest degree of investment
risk and are generally referred to as &#147;gilt edged.&#148;&#160; Interest payments are protected by a large or
exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure.&#160; While the various protective elements are
likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to impair
the fundamentally strong position of such issues.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Aa
- Bonds that are rated Aa are judged to be of high quality by all
standards.&#160; Together with the Aaa group
they comprise what are generally known as high grade bonds.&#160; They are rated lower than the best bonds
because margins of protection may not be as large as in Aaa securities or
fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude or there may be
other elements present which make the long-term risks appear somewhat larger
than in Aaa securities.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">A
- Bonds which are rated A possess many favorable investment attributes and are
to be considered as upper-medium-grade obligations.&#160; Factors giving security to principal and
interest are considered adequate, but elements may be present which suggest a
susceptibility to impairment sometime in the future.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Baa
- Bonds which are rated Baa are considered as medium-grade obligations, <i>i.e.</i>, they are neither highly protected nor poorly
secured.&#160; Interest payments and principal
security appear adequate for the present but certain protective elements may be
lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great length of
time.&#160; Such bonds lack outstanding
investment characteristics and in fact have speculative characteristics
as&nbsp;well.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Ba
- Bonds which are rated Ba are judged to have speculative elements; their
future cannot be considered as well assured.&#160;
Often the protection of interest and principal payments may be very
moderate and thereby not well safeguarded during both good and bad times over
the future.&#160; Uncertainty of position
characterizes bonds in this class.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">B
- Bonds which are rated B generally lack characteristics of desirable
investments.&#160; Assurance of interest and
principal payments or of maintenance of other terms of the contract over any
long period of time may be small.</font></p>

applies numerical modifiers (1, 2 and 3)&nbsp;with respect to the bonds rated
&#147;Aa&#148; through &#147;B&#148;.&#160; The modifier 1
indicates that the bond being rated ranks in the higher end of its generic

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Ca

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">AAA
- This is the highest rating assigned by S&amp;P to a debt obligation and
indicates an extremely strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">AA
- Debt rated AA has a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal
and differs from AAA issues only in small degree.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">A
- Debt rated A has a strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal
although they are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes
in circumstances and economic conditions than debt in higher-rated categories.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">BBB
- This is the lowest investment grade.&#160;
Debt rated BBB has an adequate capacity to pay interest and repay
principal.&#160; Although adverse economic
conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened
capacity to pay interest and repay principal for debt in this category than in
higher rated categories.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">BB,
B, CCC, CC, C - Debt rated BB, B, CCC, CC and C is regarded, on balance, as
predominately speculative with respect to capacity to pay interest and repay
principal in accordance with the terms of the obligation.&#160; BB represents a lower degree of speculation
than B and C the highest degree of speculation.&#160;

<div>

<p align="center" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:center;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">bonds
will likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these are
outweighed by large uncertainties or major risk exposures to adverse
conditions.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">BB
- Bonds rated BB have less near-term vulnerability to default than other
speculative issues.&#160; However, they face
major ongoing uncertainties or exposure to adverse business, financial, or
economic conditions, which could lead to inadequate capacity to meet timely
interest and principal payments.&#160; The BB
rating category is also used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned
an actual or implied BBB rating.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">B
- Bonds rated B have a greater vulnerability to default but currently have the
capacity to meet interest payments and principal repayments.&#160; Adverse business, financial, or economic
conditions will likely impair capacity or willingness to pay interest and repay
principal.&#160; The B rating category is also
used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied
BB or BB- rating.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">CCC
- Debt rated CCC has a currently identifiable vulnerability to default and is
dependent upon favorable business, financial and economic conditions to meet
timely payment of interest and repayment of principal.&#160; In the event of adverse business, financial
or economic conditions, it is not likely to have the capacity to pay interest
and repay principal.&#160; The CCC rating
category is also used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an
actual or implied B or B- rating.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">CC
- This rating is typically applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">C
- This rating is typically applied to debt subordinated to senior debt which is
assigned an actual or implied CCC- debt rating.&#160;
The C rating may be used to cover a situation where a bankruptcy
petition has been filed, but debt service payments are continued.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Additionally,
the rating CI is reserved for income bonds on which no interest is being
paid.&#160; Such debt is rated between debt
rated C and debt rated D.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">To
provide more detailed indications of credit quality, the ratings from &#147;AA&#148; to
&#147;CCC&#148; may be modified by the addition of a plus or minus sign to show relative
standing within this major rating category.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">D
- Debt rated D is in payment default.&#160;
The D rating category is used when interest payments or principal
payments are not made on the date due even if the applicable grace period has
not expired, unless S&amp;P believes that such payments will be made during
such grace period.&#160; The D rating also
will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition if debt service payments
are jeopardized.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
following summarizes the highest four municipal ratings used by Moody&#146;s:</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Aaa
- Bonds which are rated Aaa are judged to be of the best quality.&#160; They carry the smallest degree of investment
risk and are generally referred to as &#147;gilt edge.&#148;&#160; Interest payments are protected by a large or
exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure.&#160; While the various protective elements are
likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to impair
the fundamentally strong position of such issues.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Aa
- Bonds which are rated as Aa are judged to be of high quality by all
standards.&#160; Together with the Aaa group
they comprise what are generally known as high-grade bonds.&#160; They are rated lower than the best bonds
because margins of protection may not be as large as in Aaa securities or
fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude or there may be
other elements present which make the long-term risks appear somewhat larger
than in Aaa securities.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">A
- Bonds which are rated A possess many favorable investment attributes and are
to be considered as upper-medium-grade obligations.&#160; Factors giving security to principal and
interest are considered adequate, but elements may be present which suggest a
susceptibility to impairment sometime in the future.</font></p>

<p align="center" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:center;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Baa
- Bonds which are rated Baa are considered as medium-grade obligations, <i>i.e.</i>, they are neither highly protected nor poorly
secured.&#160; Interest payments and principal
security appear adequate for the present but certain protective elements may be
lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great length of
time.&#160; Such bonds lack outstanding
investment characteristics and in fact have speculative characteristics as
well.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Ba
- Bonds which are rated Ba are judged to have speculative elements; their
future cannot be considered as well assured.&#160;
Often the protection of interest and principal payments may be very
moderate and thereby not well safeguarded during both good and bad times over
the future.&#160; Uncertainty of position
characterizes bonds in this class.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">B
- Bonds which are rated B generally lack characteristics of desirable
investments.&#160; Assurance of interest and
principal payments or of maintenance of other terms of the contract over any long
period of time may be small.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Note:&#160; Those
bonds in the Aa, A, Baa, Ba and B groups which Moody&#146;s believes possess the
strongest investment attributes are designated by the symbols Aa1, A1, Baa1,
Ba1, and B1.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Caa
- Bonds that are rated Caa are of poor standing.&#160; These issues may be in default or present
elements of danger may exist with respect to principal or interest.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Ca
- Bonds which are rated Ca represent obligations which are speculative in a
high degree.&#160; Such issues are often in
default or have other marked shortcomings.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">C
- Bonds which are rated C are the lowest rated class of bonds, and issues so
rated can be regarded as having extremely poor prospects of ever attaining any
real investment standing.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Pursuant
to the Agreement and Declaration of Trust of the Registrant, the Registrant has
agreed to indemnify its trustees and officers against any liabilities and
expenses, including amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise or
as fines and penalties, and reasonable counsel fees reasonably incurred by such
indemnitee in connection with the defense or disposition of any action, suit or
other proceeding, whether civil or criminal, before any court or administrative
or investigative body in which he may be or may have been involved as a party
or otherwise or with which he may be or may have been threatened, while acting
his capacity as officer or trustee of the Registrant by reason of his having
acted in any such capacity, except with respect to any matter as to which he
shall not have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was
in the best interest of the Registrant or, in the case of any criminal
proceeding, as to which he shall have had reasonable cause to believe that the
conduct was unlawful, provided, however, that no indemnitee shall be
indemnified thereunder 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 his position.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may
be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant,
or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the 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 trustee, officer, or
controlling person of the Registrant in connection with the successful defense
of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in connection with the Shares 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 Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.</font></p>

of Trustees shall be no less than three or more than fifteen, provided,
however, that the number of trustees may be increased or decreased by a written
instrument signed by a majority of the Trustees then in office. No reduction in
the number of Trustees shall have the effect of removing any Trustee from
office prior to the expiration of his term.&#160;
An individual nominated as a Trustee shall be at least 21 years of age
at the time of nomination and not under any legal disability. A Trustee shall
be deemed to resign and retire as a Trustee on the date he/she reaches the age
of 72 years. The Trustees who are not &#147;interested persons&#148; of the Trust (as
defined in the 1940 Act) and who are not being considered for the waiver (&#147;Independent
Trustees&#148;) may by a majority vote waive this application of the normal
retirement age to a Trustee based on the particular facts and circumstances. A
determination to waive the mandatory retirement age for an individual Trustee
shall be reviewed on an annual basis by the Independent Trustees. Trustees need
not own shares and may succeed themselves in office.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Dividend Reinvestment and Cash Purchase Plan (the &#147;Plan&#148;) offers common
stockholders of Credit Suisse High Yield Bond Fund (the &#147;Fund&#148;) a prompt and
simple way to reinvest net investment income dividends and capital gains and
other periodic distributions in shares of the Fund&#146;s common stock. It is the
Fund&#146;s present policy, which may be changed by the Board of Trustees, to make
dividend distributions on a monthly basis. In addition, the Fund&#146;s final
distribution for each calendar year will include any remaining net investment
income undistributed during the year, as well as any undistributed net realized
capital gain.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Plan also allows you to make optional cash investments in shares of the Fund&#146;s
common stock through the Plan Agent and to deposit certificates representing
your Fund shares with the Plan Agent for safekeeping. Computershare Trust
Company, N.A. (&#147;Computershare&#148;) acts as Plan Agent for stockholders in
administering the Plan. The complete terms and conditions of the Plan accompany
this outline.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Plan has two components: reinvestment of dividends and distributions, and an
optional cash purchase feature.</font></p>

distributions will be promptly paid to you in additional shares of common stock
of the Fund, thereby increasing your holdings in the Fund. If the Fund declares
a dividend or distribution, and you are enrolled in the Plan, you will
automatically receive shares of the Fund&#146;s common stock.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
number of shares to be issued to you will be determined by dividing the total
amount of the distribution payable to you by the greater of (i)&nbsp;the net
asset value per share (&#147;NAV&#148;) of the Fund&#146;s common stock on the payment date,
or (ii)&nbsp;95% of the market price per share of the Fund&#146;s common stock on
the payment date. However, if the NAV of the Fund&#146;s common stock is greater
than the market price (plus estimated brokerage commissions) on the payment
date, then Computershare (or a broker-dealer selected by Computershare) shall
endeavor to apply the amount of such distribution on your shares to purchase
shares of Fund common stock in the open market.</font></p>

a Fund declares an income dividend or a capital gain distribution (collectively
referred to as &#147;dividends&#148;) payable either in shares or in cash,
non-participants in the Plan will receive cash and participants in the Plan
will receive the equivalent in shares. The method used by the Plan Agent to
acquire shares will vary based on whether shares are acquired through dividend
reinvestments or with cash deposit investments. Shares purchased through
dividend reinvestments will be acquired by the Plan Agent for the participants&#146;
accounts, depending upon the circumstances described below, either (i)&nbsp;through
receipt of additional unissued but authorized shares from a Fund (&#147;newly issued
shares&#148;) or (ii)&nbsp;by purchase of outstanding shares in the open market (&#147;open-market
purchases&#148;) on the principal national securities exchange upon which such Fund&#146;s
shares trade, in the over-the-counter market or in negotiated transactions. If
on the payment date for the dividend, the net asset value per share is equal to
or less than the market price per share plus estimated brokerage commissions
(such condition being referred to herein as &#147;market premium&#148;), the Plan Agent will
invest the dividend amount in newly issued shares on behalf of the
participants. The number of newly issued shares to be credited to each
participant&#146;s account will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the
dividend by the net asset value per share on the payment date; provided that,
if the net asset value is less than or equal to 95% of the closing market value
on the payment date, the dollar amount of the dividend will be divided by 95%
of the closing market price per share on the payment date. If, on the payment

his or her Plan account. In that instance, the amount of the check, if any,
will be based upon the sale price obtained for any shares sold by Computershare
on the day the certificate is issued or, if there is no market sale that day
for Computershare, the closing price on the day before. Computershare will send
the Participant a certificate and a check to the address of record on the
Participant&#146;s Plan account. If a Participant elects by his notice to
Computershare in advance of termination to have Computershare sell part or all
of his or its shares and remit the proceeds to the Participant, Computershare
is authorized to deduct a $5.00 service fee plus brokerage commission
(currently $0.03 per share as of October&nbsp;2006) from the proceeds. The Plan
may be terminated by the Fund or by Computershare upon notice in writing mailed
to each Participant at least 30 days prior to any record date for the payment
of any dividend or distribution by the Fund.</font></p>

Suisse Asset Management, LLC (&#147;Credit Suisse&#148;) is a registered investment
adviser subject to the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Credit Suisse serves as
an adviser to its clients through separate accounts, registered investment
companies (directly and as sub-adviser), private investment partnerships, and
other pooled investment vehicles.</font></p>

Suisse has developed this Policy and Procedures for the Valuation of Portfolio
Securities (the &#147;Policy&#148;). The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the &#147;Investment
Company Act&#148;) requires, in general, that registered investment companies value
portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available at
current market valuations and other securities at fair valuations as determined
in good faith by or under the direction of the Board of Directors (the &#147;Board&#148;)(1)&nbsp;of
such registered investment companies. Credit Suisse views the requirements of
the Investment Company Act as the most comprehensive in the investment
management industry. This Policy is designed to adhere to those requirements
and to incorporate certain principles set forth in relevant pronouncements of
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and its staff in determining the
valuation of portfolio securities.</font></p>

Policy describes the process employed by (i)&nbsp;the funds listed on Exhibit&nbsp;A
hereto (the &#147;Funds&#148;), as amended from time to time, through the external
accounting agents&#146; system used by the Funds (&#147;Fund Pricing&#148;), with respect to
the pricing of portfolio securities for such Funds and (ii)&nbsp;Credit Suisse,
through its internal accounting system (&#147;Credit Suisse Pricing&#148;), with respect
to the pricing of portfolio securities for advisory clients other than the
Funds (&#147;Non-Fund Clients&#148;) for which it is required to provide valuation. The
Board of each of the Funds has adopted this Policy for valuing portfolio
securities at the time prescribed in the prospectus of the Funds (the &#147;Valuation
Time&#148;).(2)&nbsp;Each Fund&#146;s accounting agent or administrator shall determine
the value of the Fund&#146;s portfolio securities in accordance with this Policy.
Fair market valuations shall be determined by Credit Suisse pursuant to Section&nbsp;2
of these Procedures. Credit Suisse, through its pricing committee (the &#147;Pricing
Committee&#148;), has also adopted this Policy for valuing portfolio securities of
Non-Fund Clients.</font></p>

Clients) by using market quotations when they are readily available. When
market quotations are not readily available, clients&#146; portfolio securities
shall be fair valued in good faith.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .4pt;punctuation-wrap:simple;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .4pt;punctuation-wrap:simple;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">When an exchange or market on which a security trades does not open or
closes early, and no other market price is available, market quotations for
that security, in general, are no longer considered readily available. Even if
an exchange or market is open for trading, a careful consideration of the
validity and reliability of such market quotations and whether they represent a
current market price at which the securities could be sold (i.e., whether the
quotations are valid and reliable) should be performed. The automatic use of
market quotations, without first verifying that the market quotations are valid
and reliable, may result in inaccurate valuations.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .4pt;punctuation-wrap:simple;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .4pt;punctuation-wrap:simple;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Credit Suisse determines whether market quotations are valid and
reliable by reviewing various factors, including whether a security is thinly
traded, sales have been infrequent, or other data that may call into question
the validity and reliability of a market quotation. In addition, a significant
event (an event that affects the value of a client&#146;s portfolio security) that
occurs after the market closes might also cause market quotations not to be
readily available. Credit Suisse continuously monitors for significant events.
Credit Suisse also exercises reasonable diligence to obtain market quotations
for a security before concluding that market quotations are not readily
available.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .4pt;punctuation-wrap:simple;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .4pt;punctuation-wrap:simple;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">When market quotations are not readily available, a security must be
priced according to its fair value. There is no single standard for determining
fair value. As a general principle, the fair value of a security is the amount
that the owner might reasonably expect to receive upon its current sale.
Methods that are in accord with this principle may, for example, be based on a
multiple of earnings, a discount from market of a similar freely traded
security, yield to maturity with respect to debt issues, or a combination of
these and other methods (a more complete list is set forth in Exhibit&nbsp;B
attached hereto). The determination that market quotations are not readily
available does not preclude the conclusion that the most recent closing price
represents fair value. The most recent closing price should be considered,
along with other appropriate factors, in determining fair value.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .4pt;punctuation-wrap:simple;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Credit Suisse regularly evaluates whether its fair value pricing
results in valuations that the owner of a security might reasonably expect to
receive upon its current sale. Fair value prices determined in accordance with
the Procedures might be different from the next-day opening or the actual sales
price of a security. Such discrepancies do not necessarily indicate that a fair
value price is inappropriate.</font></p>

party and approved by the Board of a Fund to assist in the fair valuation of
certain Fund portfolio securities. When fair value pricing is employed, the
prices used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted
or published prices for the same securities.</font></p>

significant event is that which could affect the value of a portfolio security.
Such an event may relate to a single issuer, to a particular market sector, or
to an entire market, and may include noteworthy fluctuations in domestic and/or
foreign markets. Significant events may also be evidenced by trading volumes on
markets, exchanges, or among dealers or changes in interest rates, both
domestic and foreign. Milestones may also signal the occurrence of a
significant event, such as a certain percentage rise or fall in the value of a
basket of domestic or foreign securities or a certain percentage change in
domestic or foreign futures index. Significant events may also stem from
occurrences not tied directly to the securities markets, such as natural
disasters, armed conflicts, terrorist acts, domestic or foreign
governmental/political actions or pronouncements, observations from
institutions and companies, and other news events. This list does not preclude
the consideration of other factors and is not intended to be a comprehensive
list of all types of significant events.</font></p>

be provided to a secured party in any jurisdiction in which Collateral is
located, including the right to take possession of the Collateral, and for that

enter upon any premises on which the Collateral may be situated and remove the

assemble all or any part of the Collateral at such location or locations within
the jurisdiction(s)&nbsp;of the Borrower&#146;s principal office(s)&nbsp;or at such
other locations as the Agent may reasonably designate. Unless the Collateral is
perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type
customarily sold on a recognized market, the Agent shall give to the Borrower
at least ten (10)&nbsp;days prior written notice of the time and place of any
public sale of Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or any
other intended disposition is to be made. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that
ten (10)&nbsp;days prior written notice of such sale or sales shall be
reasonable notice. The Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time
to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale
may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.
In addition, the Borrower waives any and all rights that it may have to a
judicial hearing in advance of the enforcement of any of the Agent&#146;s rights and
remedies hereunder, including its right following a Default to take immediate
possession of the Collateral and to exercise its rights and remedies with
respect thereto. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower hereby
expressly waives and covenants not to assert any appraisement, valuation, stay,
extension, redemption or similar laws, now or at any time hereafter in force,
which might delay, prevent or otherwise impede the performance or enforcement

Custodian of a notice from the Agent; <u>provided</u> that the Agent agrees it
shall not provide such notice to the Custodian until it has provided the
Borrower with notice of the disposition of such other Collateral that satisfies
all applicable notice requirements therefor under the Uniform Commercial Code.

position of the Borrower in relation to the Collateral, or because of other
current or future circumstances, a question may arise under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, as now or hereafter in effect, or any similar applicable
law of any other Authority analogous in purpose or effect (such Act and any
such similar law as from time to time in effect being called the &#147;<u>Securities
Laws</u>&#148;) with respect to any disposition of the Collateral permitted
hereunder. The Borrower understands that compliance with the Securities Laws
might very strictly limit the course of conduct of the Agent if the Agent were
to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Collateral, and might also
limit the extent to which or the manner in which any subsequent transferee of
any Collateral could dispose of the same. Similarly, there may be other legal
restrictions or limitations affecting the Agent in any attempt to dispose of
all or part of the Collateral under applicable &#147;blue sky&#148; or other state
securities laws or similar laws analogous in purpose or effect. The Borrower
recognizes that in light of such restrictions and limitations the Agent may,
with respect to any sale of Collateral to which such restrictions or
limitations may (in the reasonable judgment of the Agent) apply, limit the
purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire such
Collateral for their own account, for investment, and not with a view to the
distribution or resale thereof. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that in
light of such restrictions and limitations, the Agent, in its sole and absolute
discretion, (i) may proceed to make such a sale whether or not a registration
statement for the purpose of registering such Collateral, or any part thereof, shall
have been filed under the Securities Laws and (ii) may approach and negotiate
with a single potential purchaser to effect such sale. The Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that any such sale might result in prices and other
terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale without
such restrictions. In the event of any such sale, the Agent shall incur no
responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Collateral at a
price that the Agent may in good faith deem reasonable under the circumstances,
notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have
been realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as aforesaid
or if more than a single purchaser were approached. The provisions of this
&#167;13.4 will apply notwithstanding the existence of a public or private market
upon which the quotations or sales prices may exceed substantially the price at
which the Agent sells any such Collateral.</font></p>

Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for
the Agent (a) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the
Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to fail to complete
raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products
for disposition, (b) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral
to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to
obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition
of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (c) to fail to exercise
collection remedies against account debtors or other Persons obligated on
Collateral or to fail to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against
Collateral, (d) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and
other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection
agencies and other collection specialists, (e) to advertise dispositions of
Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not
the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (f) to contact other Persons, whether
