the best interests of the Fund for the Director to remain on the Board. With respect to Directors representing the holders of common stock, the policy provides that an individual shall not be nominated for election as a Class I, Class II, or Class
III Director (&#147;Common Stock Director&#148;) if such individual shall have attained 70 years of age prior to the meeting of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (a &#147;Nomination Meeting&#148;) preceding the Board meeting at which
Directors (of any class) are to be nominated for election. Following the 70</FONT><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="1" COLOR="#000000"><SUP>th</SUP></FONT><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000"> birthday of a Common Stock Director,
such Director shall tender his or her resignation at the next occurring Nomination Meeting, to be effective on the date of the next meeting of stockholders at which Directors (of any class) are to be elected. However, in recognition of the fact that
a person may continue to provide a valuable contribution to the Fund after reaching the age of 70, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may determine not to accept such resignation, in which case the retiring Director may serve as a
Common Stock Director for one additional year. This process may be repeated for a second year. However, the retiring Director may not continue as a Common Stock Director for longer than the term for which he or she was elected. </FONT></P> <P

outside of the United States, the Fund recognizes that it would be impractical for most Directors to attend such meetings and would create a significant expense for the Fund. In light of the fact that the residences of most Directors are substantial
distances from the location of the annual meetings of stockholders and that, historically, few stockholders have attended annual meetings in person, the Fund has not established a policy with respect to Director attendance at annual meetings of
stockholders. Three Directors attended the 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

that the Fund will receive. The Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures also permit the Audit and Valuation Committee to pre-approve the provisions of types or categories of permissible non-audit services for the Fund and its Service Affiliates on an
annual basis at the time of the Auditor&#146;s engagement and on a project-by-project basis. At the time of the annual engagement of the Fund&#146;s Auditor, the Audit and Valuation Committee is to receive a list of the categories of expected
non-audit services with a description and an estimated budget of fees. In its pre-approval, the Audit and Valuation Committee should determine that the provision of the service is consistent with, and will not impair, the ongoing independence of the
Auditor and set any limits on fees or other conditions it finds appropriate. Non-audit services may also be approved on a project-by-project basis by the Audit and Valuation Committee consistent with the same standards for determination and
