For Fund portfolio compliance purposes, the Fund’s industry classifications refer to any one or more of the industry sub-classifications used by one or more widely recognized market indexes or ratings group indexes, and/or as defined by Fund management. This definition may not apply for purposes of this report, which may combine industry sub-classifications into sectors for reporting ease. | ||
(1) | All percentages shown in the Portfolio of Investments are based on net assets. | |
(2) | The Fund uses credit quality ratings for its portfolio securities provided by Moody's, S&P and Fitch. If all three of Moody's, S&P, and Fitch provide a rating for a security, an average of the ratings is used; if two of the three agencies rate a security, an average of the two is used; and if only one rating agency rates a security, that rating is used. AAA, AA, A, and BBB are investment grade ratings; BB, B, CCC/CC/C and D are below-investment grade ratings. Credit ratings are subject to change. Holdings designated N/R are not rated by Moody's, S&P or Fitch. Ratings are not covered by the report of independent registered public accounting firm. | |

For Fund portfolio compliance purposes, the Fund’s industry classifications refer to any one or more of the industry sub-classifications used by one or more widely recognized market indexes or ratings group indexes, and/or as defined by Fund management. This definition may not apply for purposes of this report, which may combine industry sub-classifications into sectors for reporting ease. | ||
(1) | All percentages shown in the Portfolio of Investments are based on net assets. | |
(2) | The Fund uses credit quality ratings for its portfolio securities provided by Moody's, S&P and Fitch. If all three of Moody's, S&P, and Fitch provide a rating for a security, the middle is used; if two of the three agencies rate a security, the lower rating is used; and if only one rating agency rates a security, that rating is used. AAA, AA, A, and BBB are investment grade ratings; BB, B, CCC/CC/C and D are below-investment grade ratings. Credit ratings are subject to change. Holdings designated N/R are not rated by Moody's, S&P or Fitch. Ratings are not covered by the report of independent registered public accounting firm. | |
144A | Investment is exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These investments may only be resold in transactions exempt from registration, which are normally those transactions with qualified institutional buyers. | |

For Fund portfolio compliance purposes, the Fund’s industry classifications refer to any one or more of the industry sub-classifications used by one or more widely recognized market indexes or ratings group indexes, and/or as defined by Fund management. This definition may not apply for purposes of this report, which may combine industry sub-classifications into sectors for reporting ease. | ||
(1) | All percentages shown in the Portfolio of Investments are based on net assets. | |
(2) | The Fund uses credit quality ratings for its portfolio securities provided by Moody's, S&P and Fitch. If all three of Moody's, S&P, and Fitch provide a rating for a security, the middle is used; if two of the three agencies rate a security, the lower rating is used; and if only one rating agency rates a security, that rating is used. AAA, AA, A, and BBB are investment grade ratings; BB, B, CCC/CC/C and D are below-investment grade ratings. Credit ratings are subject to change. Holdings designated N/R are not rated by Moody's, S&P or Fitch. Ratings are not covered by the report of independent registered public accounting firm. | |
(3) | Optional Call Provisions: Dates (month and year) and prices of the earliest optional call or redemption. There may be other call provisions at varying prices at later dates. Certain mortgage-backed securities may be subject to periodic principal paydowns. Optional Call Provisions are not covered by the report of independent registered public accounting firm. | |

ITEM 4. | PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES. |
The following tables show the amount of fees that KPMG LLP, the Funds auditor, billed to the Funds during the Funds last two full fiscal years. The Audit Committee approved in advance all audit services and non-audit services that KPMG LLP provided to the Funds, except for those non-audit services that were subject to the pre-approval exception under Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X (the pre-approval exception). The preapproval exception for services provided directly to the Funds waives the pre-approval requirement for services other than audit, review or attest services if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Funds during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (B) the Funds did not recognize the services as non-audit services at the time of the engagement; and (C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committees attention, and the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the audit is completed.
The Audit Committee has delegated certain pre-approval responsibilities to its Chair (or, in her absence, any other member of the Audit Committee).
