Section 2: Investment Process

6

First Trust Advisors L.P.

The investment process is a balanced combination of bottom-up fundamental
credit analysis and top-down portfolio construction.

•Asset Selection involves evaluation of the macro-economy, industry trends, consistency of
cash flows, collateral coverage, and management quality.

•Portfolio Construction focuses on relative value within a risk management structure.

The investment process is driven
by rigorous bottom-up credit
evaluation within a risk managed
portfolio construction
methodology.

Internal ratings system and an
enterprise valuation assessment
are key components of the
overall investment process.

Portfolio Construction Strategy

Portfolio Diversification

•We believe significant risk reduction can be achieved through proper portfolio diversification.

Relative Value Assessment

•We believe relative value assessment is critical to generating alpha.Portfolio holdings and positions sizes will
be driven principally via credit evaluation and in part by a rigorous view of relative value.Secondary market
technicals can create compelling opportunities as pricing disconnects with fundamentals.

Credit Ratings

•We also believe that the First Trust Leveraged Finance Team’s proprietary internal ratings system standardizes
the credit view across the portfolio.This system also uncovers potential investment opportunities where our
credit view differs from the credit rating agencies. Our process generates an expected credit loss in the event of
default which can then be scored with an internal rating, based on historical data.

Credit Liquidity

•We believe that favoring more liquid credits provides the ability to adjust position sizes through time.Should
credit fundamentals change, liquidity allows for adjusting position sizes as appropriate.

We believe asset selection
complemented by balanced portfolio
construction helps optimize
risk/return profile.

We believe portfolio construction
needs to be dynamic to reflect the
overall performance of individual
names over time.

Daily Trading Meetings

•Each morning, the Leveraged Finance Investment Team meets to discuss the state of the market,
including both the US and European markets.We highlight any news pertaining to credits in the
portfolio.In addition, we review active pending trade ideas.

Daily Credit Review Meeting

•A meeting of the Credit Committee is scheduled each day to discuss any new transaction in the
market, controversial credit agreement amendments, or anything noteworthy.

Bi-Weekly Pipeline and Amendment Review

•Twice each week, after the morning trading meeting, the Leveraged Finance Investment Team
reviews all active new deals in the pipeline.The purpose is to begin discussing the merits of each
new market transaction and determine whether it should be reviewed by the Credit Committee.In
addition, we review all pending credit agreement amendments at this meeting.

Quarterly Portfolio Review

•At a minimum, every company is reviewed and monitored once per quarter which includes a full
credit monitoring report that is e-mailed to the Credit Committee.

Industry Review Session

•The Leveraged Finance Investment Team meets to discuss industry trends to determine proper
weightings within the portfolio.We pay particular attention to any new developments or trends that
may affect a given industry in the coming months (e.g. healthcare reform, etc.)

Credit / Portfolio Management Support

•The First Trust Leveraged Finance Investment Team utilizes an innovative technology application
providing front-end trading, portfolio management, credit analysis, compliance and risk management.

•The First Trust Leveraged Finance Investment Team utilizes robust databases to source loan trading
runs, merger & acquisition multiples and industry metrics.

Robust Risk Management

•First Trust Advisors provides Advisory Oversight for the Leveraged Finance Investment Team.

•Credit Committee approval is required for new deal underwriting approval.

•Portfolio Management approval is necessary for approval of amendments to credit agreements.

•Separation of trade settlement and trading execution exists.

•Separation of purchase/sale decision and trade execution exists.

Legal Review

•Given the non-standardized documentation for bank loans, we believe legal review is critical to
ensure that documents are fully understood.

Systems, Technology & Risk Management

Loan infrastructure will support
efficient compliance monitoring, risk
management, loan processing, credit
analysis, and portfolio management.

Loan Market Outlook

Credit Quality

•Loan defaults have trended lower. The LTM default rate was 3.52% as of September 20, 2010. This is down
from the peak default rate of 10.8% in November, 2009.

•We believe the loan default rate will be between 3% and 4% for 2010, and could be between 2.5% and 3.5% in
2011.

Valuations

•Loan spreads remain wide relative to the historical average.At L+637 bps to a 3-year average life, loan spreads
are considerably higher than the L+363 bps average prior to the loan market dislocation (as of August 2010)

•We believe returns will be between 8% and 10% for loans in 2010 based on expectations for continued spread
tightening.

Market Technicals

•Demand:As defaults have declined in senior loans and the expectation for rising rates in the future exists, there
is typically an increase in flows into senior loans.As of September 23, 2010, there have been inflows in 35 of
the 38 weeks this year, for a net $6.4 billion year-to-date inflow.

•Supply:The recent increase in loan issuance should continue throughout the remainder of the year.Many
issuers have been accessing the high-yield market in favor of the increased demand that resulted from
significant flows and the lack of covenants.Moreover, the increased use of secured bond deals has helped
borrowers receive more attractive pricing.Over time, issuers should make their way back to the loan market.
Borrowers will be inclined to trade covenants for lower spreads and the ability to prepay their deals as economic
conditions improve.

•The combination of strong new issuance coupled with robust demand as evidenced by loan market flows has
lead to a nice balance in loan market.

Many companies have pushed out
maturities with amend and extend
transactions.Moreover, those
industries most in trouble have
already entered bankruptcy in droves
(real estate and publishing).As such,
we believe it is unlikely that there
will be a new wave of defaults in
2010.
