The Fund has considered the below comments in the preparation of its 2008 first quarter 10-Q filed May 20, 2008 (the "10-Q"). FORM 10-K FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Results of Operations, page 8 1. In future filings, please provide a more robust discussion of your results of operations including the drivers behind the changes in individual line items of your statement of operations. For example, we note you experienced increases in the net realized gains from investments and foreign currency transactions from 2006 to 2007, but you have not discussed the factors that contributed to this change. Your disclosures should include the three-year period covered by the financial statements and use year-to-year comparisons. Refer to Item 303(a)(3) of Regulation S-K and Release No. 33- 8350 "Interpretation: Commission Guidance Regarding Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations". Response: The Fund has expanded the Results of Operations discussion in its 10-Q to include period to period comparisons for the three month periods ended March 31, 2008 and March 31, 2007 of the individual line items from the statement of operations, with attribution to the drivers behind the changes. In future 10-K filings, the Fund will expand such disclosures to include the three year period covered by the financial statements with year-to-year comparisons as well. Certifications 2. We note that your certifications were not filed in the exact form as outlined in Item 601(B)(31)(i) of Regulation S-K. The discrepancies involve including the certifying individuals title in the opening sentence and omitting it at the end of the certification. Please confirm that in future filings, you will file certifications in the exact form as outlined in Item 601(B)(31)(i) of Regulation S-K. Response: In future filings, the Fund will file certifications in the exact form as outlined in Item 601(B)(31)(i) of Regulation S-K. We are available to amplify or clarify any response.
