Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Section 30(h) of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, and the regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) thereunder, require the Registrant's officers and
trustees and direct or indirect beneficial owners of more than 10% of the
Registrant's shares, as well as Davis-Dinsmore (the Registrant's investment
advisor), its directors and officers and certain of its other affiliated
persons (collectively, Reporting Persons), to file initial reports of ownership
and changes in ownership with the SEC.  Reporting Persons are required to
furnish the Registrant with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by it and
written representations, the Registrant believes that all filing requirements
applicable to the Reporting Persons have been complied with during the fiscal
year ended September 30, 2007.
