Investment Objective and Policies
 |
| The Fund's primary investment objective is to provide
current income and gains, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation.
Relative to other equity income funds, the Fund seeks to provide less volatile
returns and reduced exposure to loss of value during stock market declines. In
pursuing its investment objectives, the Fund will evaluate returns on an
after-tax basis, seeking to minimize and defer shareholder federal income taxes. |

Performance

AVERAGE
ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS |
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are
calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value or market price
(as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. The Fund’s performance at market
market price will differ from its results at NAV. Although market price performance
generally reflects investment results over time, during shorter periods, returns at
market price can also be affected by factors such as changing perceptions about the
Fund, market conditions, fluctuations in supply and demand for the Fund’s shares, or
changes in Fund distributions. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate
so that shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the
Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted.
Performance results reflect the effects of leverage resulting from the Fund’s issuance of Auction Preferred Shares.
For certain periods following the ex date of distributions paid by the Fund, returns may be calculated based on the lower of the net asset value or market price of the shares on the distribution pay date rather than the true distribution reinvestment price.

Disclosure |

Market price performance is shown before applicable commissions
that a shareholder may encounter when purchasing or selling
shares of the fund. All performance information is for common
shares of the fund.
Closed-end funds, unlike open-end funds, are not continuously
offered. There is a one-time public offering and once
issued, shares of closed-end funds are sold in the open
market through a stock exchange. Net asset value (NAV)
is total assets less total liabilities divided by the
number of shares outstanding. At the time of sale, your
shares may have a market price that is above or below
NAV. There is no assurance that the fund
will achieve its investment objective. The fund is subject
to investment risks, including possible loss of principal
invested.
