Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 (FAS 157), Fair Value Measurements.

These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds,
credit risk, etc.)
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of August 31, 2009 in valuing the fund's investments:

The fund adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ( FAS 161 ). FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. All changes to accounting policies and disclosures have been made in accordance with FAS 161 and are incorporated for the current period as part of the disclosures within this Note.

Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities excluding short-term investments (other than U.S.Treasury Bills), swaps and forward currency exchange contracts are valued each business day by an independent pricing service (the Service ) approved by the Board of Trustees. Investments for which quoted bid prices are readily available and are representative of the bid side of the market in the judgment of the Service are valued at the mean between the quoted bid prices (as obtained by the Service from dealers in such securities) and asked prices (as calculated by the Service based upon its evaluation of the market for such securities). Other investments (which constitute a majority of the portfolio securities) are valued as determined by the Service, based on methods which include consideration of: yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions. Restricted securities, as well as securities or other assets for which recent market quotations are not readily available and are not valued by a pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees, or are determined by the fund not to reflect accurately fair value, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of the Board of Trustees. The factors that may be considered when fair valuing a security include fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers. Short-term investments, excluding U.S. Treasury Bills, are carried at amortized cost, which approximates value. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. Investments denominated in foreign

currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts ( forward contracts ) are valued at the forward rate. Investments in swap transactions are valued each business day by an independent pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees. Swaps are valued by the service by using a swap pricing model which incorporates among other factors, default probabilities, recovery rates, credit curves of the underlying issuer and swap spreads an interest rates.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: The fund may enter into forward contracts in order to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on its foreign portfolio holdings, to settle foreign currency transactions or as a part of an investment strategy. When executing forward contracts, the fund is obligated to buy or sell a foreign currency at a specified rate on a certain date in the future. With respect to sales of forward contracts, the fund would incur a loss if the value of the contracts increase between the date the forward contracts are opened and the date the forward contracts are closed. The fund realizes a gain if the value of the contracts decrease between those dates. With respect to purchases of forward contracts, the fund would incur a loss if the value of the contracts decrease between the date the forward contracts are opened and the date the forward contracts are closed. The fund realizes a gain if the value of the contracts increase between those dates. The fund is also exposed to credit risk associated with counterparty nonperformance on these forward contracts, which is typically limited to the unrealized gain on each open contract.

Additional investment related disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference to the annual and semi-annual reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form N-CSR.

ADR - American Depository Receipts 

a Non-income producing security. 

At August 31, 2009, the aggregate cost of investment securities for income tax purposes was $1,444,312.

Net unrealized depreciation on investments was $169,659 of which $67,625 related to appreciated investment securities and $237,284 related to depreciated investment securities.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 (FAS 157), Fair Value Measurements.

These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds,
credit risk, etc.)
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of August 31, 2009 in valuing the fund's investments:

The fund adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ( FAS 161 ). FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. Since the fund held no derivatives during the period, FAS 161 disclosures did not impact the notes to the financial statements.

Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sales price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair va lue, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADRs and futures contracts. For other securities that are fair valued by the Board of Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold

and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers. Financial futures are valued at the last sales price.

Additional investment related disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference to the annual and semi-annual reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form N-CSR.
