obtained from an independent pricing service. For those securities where quotations or prices are
not readily available, valuations are obtained from yield data relating to instruments or
securities with similar characteristics in accordance with procedures established in good faith by
the Board of Trustees. Factors considered in making this determination may include, but are not
limited to, information obtained by contacting the issuer, analysts, or the appropriate stock
exchange (for exchange-traded securities), analysis of the issuer&#146;s financial statements or other
available documents and, if necessary, available information concerning other securities in similar
circumstances. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day on the
exchange on which they are traded. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60&nbsp;days or
less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

(ASC)&nbsp;820 <I>Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures </I>(ASC 820) (formerly known as FAS 157), defines
fair value as the price that the Trust would receive to sell an investment or pay to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction with an independent buyer in the principal market, or in the
absence of a principal market the most advantageous market for the investment or liability. ASC
820 establishes a three-tier hierarchy to distinguish between (1)&nbsp;inputs that reflect the
assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on
market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs) and (2)
inputs that reflect the reporting entity&#146;s own assumptions about the assumptions market
participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information
available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs) and to establish classification of fair value
measurements for disclosure purposes. Various inputs are used in determining the value of the
Trust&#146;s investments. The inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
