        (‡) Principal amount stated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
        (†) Equity securities, including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where the security is primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders.
     Senior loans are priced at bid prices supplied by a pricing service, if available.
     Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities and senior loans where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security.
     Forward foreign currency contracts are valued utilizing interpolated prices determined from information provided by an independent pricing service.
     Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.
     Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
     Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.
     The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value. At December 31, 2011, approximately 19% of the market value of investments was fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees.
     The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.
      (††) Security held in units. One unit represents a principal amount of 1,000. Amount shown represents principal amount including inflation adjustments.
    (†††) Amount shown represents units. One unit represents a principal amount of 1,000.

        (a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales. Amortization of premium on debt securities is excluded for tax purposes.):
     At December 31, 2011, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $513,045,100 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 36,417,642   

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     At September 30, 2011, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $51,909,722 of which $13,460,729 expires on September 30, 2017 and $38,448,993 expires on September 30, 2018. These amounts may be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by regulations.
     On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was enacted. The Act modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs, and, with certain exceptions, is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. Among the changes made are changes to the capital loss carryforward rules allowing for capital losses to be carried forward indefinitely. Rules in effect previously limited the carryforward period to eight years. Capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years beginning after the effective date of the Act must be fully used before capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years prior to effective date of the Act; therefore, under certain circumstances, capital loss carryforwards available as of the report date, if any, may expire unused.
        (b) Non-income producing security.
        (c) All or a portion of this security has been designated to cover the Fund’s obligations under open forward foreign currency contracts.
        (d) Variable rate security. Rate as of December 31, 2011 is disclosed.
        (e) Illiquid security. At December 31, 2011, the value of these securities amounted to $375,208 or 0.1% of net assets.
        (f) The issuer is in default with respect to interest and/or principal payments. Income is not being accrued.
        (g) Coupon rate is a fixed rate for an initial period then resets at a specified date and rate.


(h) All or a portion of interest payment is paid-in-kind.
(i) Variable rate security. Rate shown represents the weighted average rate at December 31, 2011.
(j) It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.
144A All or a portion of these securities are exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At December 31, 2011, the value of Rule 144A holdings amounted to $27,113,036 or 5.0% of net assets.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts

The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts, including forward foreign cross currency contracts, to acquire exposure to foreign currencies or to hedge the Fund’s investments against currency fluctuation. A contract can also be used to offset a previous contract. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss. The U.S. dollar value of the currencies the Fund has committed to buy or sell represents the aggregate exposure to each currency the Fund has acquired or hedged through currency contracts outstanding at period end. Gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until settlement date. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Certain contracts may require the movement of cash or securities as collateral for the Fund’s and/or counterparty’s net obligations under the contracts.

At December 31, 2011, the Fund had the following open forward foreign currency contracts:

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

   

Level 2 — prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.);

 

   

Level 3 — prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

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 to value the Fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, at value:

A debt security valued at $10,000 was transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 during the period ended December 31, 2011. At September 30, 2011, this security was valued using broker-dealer bid quotations based on inputs unobservable to the Fund; at December 31, 2011, this security was valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service.

A preferred stock valued at $409,200 was transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 during the period ended December 31, 2011. At September 30, 2011, this security was valued using broker-dealer bid quotations based on inputs unobservable to the Fund; at December 31, 2011, this security was valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service.

All transfers are recognized as of the beginning of the reporting period.

Derivatives

Derivative instruments are defined as financial instruments whose value and performance are based on the value and performance of another security or financial instrument. Derivative instruments that the Fund used during the period include forward foreign currency contracts.

The Fund is subject to the risk that changes in foreign currency exchange rates will have an unfavorable effect on the value of Fund assets denominated in foreign currencies. The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts for hedging purposes to protect the value of the Fund’s holdings of foreign securities. The Fund may also use forward foreign currency contracts to gain exposure to foreign currencies, regardless of whether securities denominated in such currencies are held in the Fund. During the period ended December 31, 2011, the Fund engaged in forward foreign currency transactions for hedging purposes and to gain exposure to foreign currencies.

The Fund is party to agreements with counterparties that govern transactions in forward foreign currency contracts. These agreements contain credit-risk-related contingent features that allow the counterparties to terminate open contracts early if the net asset value of a Fund declines beyond a certain threshold. If such features were to be triggered, the counterparties could request immediate settlement of open contracts at current fair value. As of December 31, 2011, the fair value of derivative positions (including open trades) subject to credit-risk-related contingent features that are in a net liability position by counterparty, and the value of collateral pledged to counterparties for such contracts is as follows:


 

Counterparty

   Derivatives     Collateral Pledged  

Barclays

   $ (12,279   $ —     

Credit Suisse

     (23,074     —     

JPMorgan Chase

     (2,151     —     

Morgan Stanley

     (5,122     —     

Forward foreign currency contracts are subject to the risk that the counterparty will be unwilling or unable to meet its obligations under the contracts. The Fund has mitigated this risk by entering into master netting agreements with counterparties that allow the Fund and the counterparty to offset amounts owed by each related to derivative contracts to one net amount payable by either the Fund or the counterparty. As of December 31, 2011, the maximum amount of loss that the Fund would incur if counterparties failed to meet their obligations is $18,218 and the amount of loss that the Fund would incur after taking into account master netting arrangements is $17,753.

Counterparty risk is managed through the posting of collateral and, as a result, the risk of loss to the Fund from counterparty default should be limited to the extent the Fund is undercollateralized. In addition to collateral requirements, the Fund also requires counterparties to meet minimum credit quality requirements.

The following is a summary of derivative instruments for the Fund, as of December 31, 2011:

The Fund’s derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting under authoritative guidance for derivative instruments. The Fund’s investments in derivatives may represent an economic hedge; however, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for the purpose of this disclosure.

    (†) Equity securities, including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where the security is primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market.
     Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders.
     Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security.
     Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.
     Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
     Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.
     The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.
     The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.
    (a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales.):
     At December 31, 2011, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $107,072,011 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 15,227,675   

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (3,479,724
  

 

 

 

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 11,747,951   
  

 

 

 
     At September 30, 2011, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $91,817,905 of which $75,866 expires on September 30, 2016; $57,062,095 expires on September 30, 2017 and $34,679,944 expires on September 30, 2018. This amount may be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by regulations.
     On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was enacted. The Act modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs, and, with certain exceptions, is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. Among the changes made are changes to the capital loss carryforward rules allowing for capital losses to be carried forward indefinitely. Rules in effect previously limited the carryforward period to eight years. Capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years beginning after the effective date of the Act must be fully used before capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years prior to effective date of the Act; therefore, under certain circumstances, capital loss carryforwards available as of the report date, if any, may expire unused.
    (b) Non-income producing security.
    (c) It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.
ADR An American Depositary Receipt is a certificate issued by a custodian bank representing the right to receive securities of the foreign issuer described. The values of ADRs may be significantly influenced by trading on exchanges not located in the United States.


Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1— quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

   

Level 2 — prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.);

 

   

Level 3 — prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

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 to value the Fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, at value:

  (‡)       Principal amount stated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
  (†)       Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders.
  

Senior loans are priced at bid prices supplied by a pricing service, if available.

Equity securities, including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where the security is primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities and senior loans where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security.

Forward foreign currency contracts are valued utilizing interpolated prices determined from information provided by an independent pricing service.

Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts

The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts, including forward foreign cross currency contracts, to acquire exposure to foreign currencies or to hedge the Fund’s investments against currency fluctuation. A contract can also be used to offset a previous contract. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss. The U.S. dollar value of the currencies the Fund has committed to buy or sell represents the aggregate exposure to each currency the Fund has acquired or hedged through currency contracts outstanding at period end. Gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until settlement date. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Certain contracts may require the movement of cash and/or securities as collateral for the Fund’s or counterparty’s net obligations under the contracts.

At December 31, 2011, the Fund had the following open forward foreign currency contracts:

Fair Value Measurement

In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

   

Level 2 — prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.);

 

   

Level 3 — prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

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 to value the Fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, at value:

*** Fair valued at zero using Level 3 inputs.

A debt security valued at $843,525 was transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 during the period ended December 31, 2011.

Debt securities valued at $968,625 were transferred from Level 2 to Level 3 during the period ended December 31, 2011. At September 30, 2011, these securities were valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service; at December 31, 2011, these securities were valued using broker-dealer bid quotations based on inputs unobservable to the Fund.

All transfers are recognized as of the beginning of the reporting period.

Derivatives

Derivative instruments are defined as financial instruments whose value and performance are based on the value and performance of another security or financial instrument. Derivative instruments that the Fund used during the period include forward foreign currency contracts.

The Fund is subject to the risk that changes in foreign currency exchange rates will have an unfavorable effect on the value of Fund assets denominated in foreign currencies. The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts for hedging purposes to protect the value of the Fund’s holdings of foreign securities. The Fund may also use forward foreign currency contracts to gain exposure to foreign currencies, regardless of whether securities denominated in such currencies are held in the Fund. During the period ended December 31, 2011, the Fund engaged in forward foreign currency transactions for hedging purposes.

The Fund is party to agreements with counterparties that govern transactions in forward foreign currency contracts. These agreements contain credit-risk-related contingent features that allow the counterparties to terminate open contracts early if the net asset value of a Fund declines beyond a certain threshold. If such features were to be triggered, the counterparties could request immediate settlement of open contracts at current fair value. As of December 31, 2011, the Fund did not hold any derivative positions (including open trades) subject to credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position by counterparty.


Forward foreign currency contracts are subject to the risk that the counterparty will be unwilling or unable to meet its obligations under the contracts. The Fund has mitigated this risk by entering into master netting agreements with counterparties that allow the Fund and the counterparty to offset amounts owed by each related to derivative contracts to one net amount payable by either the Fund or the counterparty. As of December 31, 2011, the maximum amount of loss that the Fund would incur if counterparties failed to meet their obligations is $230,661 and the amount of loss that the Fund would incur after taking into account master netting arrangement is $230,661.

Counterparty risk is managed through the posting of collateral and, as a result, the risk of loss to a Fund from counterparty default should be limited to the extent a Fund is undercollateralized. In addition to collateral requirements, the Fund also requires counterparties to meet minimum credit quality requirements.

The following is a summary of derivative instruments for the Fund, as of December 31, 2011:

The Fund’s derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting under authoritative guidance for derivative instruments. The Fund’s investments in derivatives may represent an economic hedge; however, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for the purpose of this disclosure.

Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders.
Equity securities, including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where the security is primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market.
Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security.
Forward foreign currency contracts are valued utilizing interpolated prices determined from information provided by an independent pricing service.
Swap agreements are valued based on mid prices supplied by a pricing service, if available, or quotations obtained from broker-dealers.
Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.
Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts

The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts, including forward foreign cross currency contracts, to acquire exposure to foreign currencies and to hedge the Fund’s investments against currency fluctuation. A contract can also be used to offset a previous contract. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss. The U.S. dollar value of the currencies the Fund has committed to buy or sell represents the aggregate exposure to each currency the Fund has acquired or hedged through currency contracts outstanding at period end. Gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until settlement date. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Certain contracts may require the movement of cash and/or securities as collateral for the Fund’s or counterparty’s net obligations under the contracts. At December 31, 2011, the Fund had the following open forward foreign currency contracts:

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1 —  quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

   

Level 2 — prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.);

 

   

Level 3 — prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

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 to value the Fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, at value:

Derivatives

Derivative instruments are defined as financial instruments whose value and performance are based on the value and performance of another security or financial instrument. Derivative instruments that the Fund used during the period include forward foreign currency contracts.

The Fund is subject to the risk that changes in foreign currency exchange rates will have an unfavorable effect on the value of Fund assets denominated in foreign currencies. The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts for hedging purposes to protect the value of the Fund’s holdings of foreign securities. The Fund may also use forward foreign currency contracts to gain exposure to foreign currencies, regardless of whether securities denominated in such currencies are held in the Fund. During the period ended December 31, 2011, the Fund engaged in forward foreign currency transactions for hedging purposes and to gain exposure to foreign currencies.

The Fund is party to agreements with counterparties that govern transactions in forward foreign currency contracts. These agreements contain credit-risk-related contingent features that allow the counterparties to terminate open contracts early if the net asset value of a Fund declines beyond a certain threshold. If such features were to be triggered, the counterparties could request immediate settlement of open contracts at current fair value. As of December 31, 2011, the fair value of derivative positions (including open trades) subject to credit-risk-related contingent features that are in a net liability position by counterparty, and the value of collateral pledged to counterparties for such contracts is as follows:

 

Counterparty

   Derivatives     Collateral Pledged  

Credit Suisse

   $ (4,429   $  —     

UBS AG

     (5,783     —     

Forward foreign currency contracts are subject to the risk that the counterparty will be unwilling or unable to meet its obligations under the contracts. The Fund has mitigated this risk by entering into master netting agreements with counterparties that allow the Fund and the counterparty to offset amounts owed by each related to derivative contracts to one net amount payable by either the Fund or the counterparty. As of December 31, 2011, the maximum amount of loss that the Fund would incur if counterparties failed to meet their obligations is $30,798 and the amount of loss that the Fund would incur after taking into account master netting arrangements is $6,711.


Counterparty risk is managed through the posting of collateral and, as a result, the risk of loss to the Fund from counterparty default should be limited to the extent the Fund is undercollateralized. In addition to collateral requirements, the Fund also requires counterparties to meet minimum credit quality requirements.

The following is a summary of derivative instruments for the Fund, as of December 31, 2011:

The Fund’s derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting under authoritative guidance for derivative instruments. The Fund’s investments in derivatives may represent an economic hedge; however, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for the purpose of this disclosure.

(‡) Principal amount stated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
(†) Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders.

Senior loans are priced at bid prices supplied by a pricing service, if available.

Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities and senior loans where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security.

Forward foreign currency contracts are valued utilizing interpolated prices determined from information provided by an independent pricing service.

Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales. Amortization of premium on debt securities is excluded for tax purposes.):

At December 31, 2011, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $9,151,597,338 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 999,120,298   

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

(b) Variable rate security. Rate as of December 31, 2011 is disclosed.
(c) Illiquid security. At December 31, 2011, the value of these securities amounted to $131,209,308 or 1.3% of net assets.
(d) Coupon rate is a fixed rate for an initial period then resets at a specified date and rate.
(e) It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.
144A All or a portion of these securities are exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At December 31, 2011, the value of Rule 144A holdings amounted to $1,564,846,452 or 15.5% of net assets.

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

   

Level 2 — prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.);

 

   

Level 3 — prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

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

(†) Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders. Equity securities, including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where the security is primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security.
     Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.
     Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
     Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.
     The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.
     The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.
(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales. Amortization of premium on debt securities is excluded for tax purposes.):
     At December 31, 2011, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $505,347,978 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 10,442,433   

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (1,345,364
  

 

 

 

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 9,097,069   
  

 

 

 
(b) Variable rate security. Rate as of December 31, 2011 is disclosed.
(c) All or a portion of this security has been designated to cover the Fund’s obligations under open TBA transactions.
(d) The Fund’s investment in mortgage related securities of Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, Federal National Mortgage Association and Government National Mortgage Association are interests in separate pools of mortgages. All separate investments in securities of each issuer which have the same coupon rate have been aggregated for the purpose of presentation in the Portfolio of Investments.
(e) Delayed delivery. The Fund may purchase securities, including those designated as TBAs in the Portfolio of Investments, for which delivery or payment will occur at a later date, beyond the normal settlement period. The price of the security and the date when the security will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The security and the obligation to pay for it are recorded by the Fund at the time the commitment is entered into. The actual security that will be delivered to fulfill a TBA trade is not designated at the time of the trade. The security is “to be announced” 48 hours prior to the established trade settlement date. The value of the security may vary with market fluctuations during the time before the Fund takes delivery of the security. When the Fund enters into such a transaction, collateral consisting of liquid securities or cash and cash equivalents is required to be segregated or earmarked at the custodian in an amount at least equal to the amount of the Fund’s commitment. No interest accrues to the Fund until the transaction settles.
     Purchases of delayed delivery securities may have a similar effect on the Fund’s net asset value as if the Fund had created a degree of leverage in the portfolio. Risks may arise upon entering into such transactions from the potential inability of counterparties to meet their obligations under the transactions. Additionally, losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities.
(f) It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.
144A All or a portion of these securities are exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At December 31, 2011, the value of Rule 144A holdings amounted to $413,346 or 0.1% of net assets.

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

   

Level 2 — prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.);

 

   

Level 3 — prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

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 to value the Fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, at value:

(†) Equity securities, including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where the security is primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders.

Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security.

Domestic exchange-traded single equity option contracts are valued at the mean of the National Best Bid and Offer quotations. Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales. Amortization of premium on debt securities is excluded for tax purposes.):

At December 31, 2011, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $97,499,952 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

  

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 6,843,076   

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (2,282,298
  

 

 

 

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 4,560,778   
  

 

 

 
     At September 30, 2011, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $44,592,514 of which $26,022,721 expires on September 30, 2017 and $18,569,793 expires on September 30, 2018. These amounts may be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by regulations.

On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was enacted. The Act modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs, and, with certain exceptions, is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. Among the changes made are changes to the capital loss carryforward rules allowing for capital losses to be carried forward indefinitely. Rules in effect previously limited the carryforward period to eight years. Capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years beginning after the effective date of the Act must be fully used before capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years prior to effective date of the Act; therefore, under certain circumstances, capital loss carryforwards available as of the report date, if any, may expire unused.

(b) Non-income producing security.
(c) It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.

(†)   

Equity securities, including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where the security is primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market.

Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders.

Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security.

Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

(a)    Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales.):
   At December 31, 2011, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $387,343,829 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 43,460,833   

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (7,428,001
  

 

 

 

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 36,032,832   
  

 

 

 
  

At September 30, 2011, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $26,874,285 of which $14,995,800 expires on September 30, 2017 and $11,878,485 expires on September 30, 2018. This amount may be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by regulations.

On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was enacted. The Act modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs, and, with certain exceptions, is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. Among the changes made are changes to the capital loss carryforward rules allowing for capital losses to be carried forward indefinitely. Rules in effect previously limited the carryforward period to eight years. Capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years beginning after the effective date of the Act must be fully used before capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years prior to effective date of the Act; therefore, under certain circumstances, capital loss carryforwards available as of the report date, if any, may expire unused.

(b)    Non-income producing security.
(c)    It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

   

Level 2 — prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.);

 

   

Level 3 — prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

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 to value the Fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, at value:

(†) Equity securities, including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where the security is primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market.
     Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders.
     Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security.
     Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.
     Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
     Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.

 

     The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

 

     The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.
(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales.):
     At December 31, 2011, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $387,343,829 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 43,460,833   
 

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (7,428,001
    

 

 

 
 

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 36,032,832   
    

 

 

 

 

     At September 30, 2011, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $26,874,285 of which $14,995,800 expires on September 30, 2017 and $11,878,485 expires on September 30, 2018. This amount may be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by regulations.

 

     On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was enacted. The Act modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs, and, with certain exceptions, is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. Among the changes made are changes to the capital loss carryforward rules allowing for capital losses to be carried forward indefinitely. Rules in effect previously limited the carryforward period to eight years. Capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years beginning after the effective date of the Act must be fully used before capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years prior to effective date of the Act; therefore, under certain circumstances, capital loss carryforwards available as of the report date, if any, may expire unused.

 

(b) Non-income producing security.
(c) It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

   

Level 2 — prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.);

 

   

Level 3 — prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

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 to value the Fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, at value:

(‡) Principal amount stated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
(†) Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders.

Senior loans are priced at bid prices supplied by a pricing service, if available.

Equity securities, including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where the security is primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities and senior loans where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security.

Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

(††) Amount shown represents units. One unit represents a principal amount of 25.

At September 30, 2011, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $440,508,454 which expires on September 30, 2018. This amount may be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by regulations.

On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was enacted. The Act modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs, and, with certain exceptions, is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. Among the changes made are changes to the capital loss carryforward rules allowing for capital losses to be carried forward indefinitely. Rules in effect previously limited the carryforward period to eight years. Capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years beginning after the effective date of the Act must be fully used before capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years prior to effective date of the Act; therefore, under certain circumstances, capital loss carryforwards available as of the report date, if any, may expire unused.

(b) Variable rate security. Rate as of December 31, 2011 is disclosed.
(c) Illiquid security. At December 31, 2011, the value of these securities amounted to $278,915,205 or 2.1% of net assets.
(d) Non-income producing security.
(e) The issuer is in default with respect to interest and/or principal payments. Income is not being accrued.
(f) Maturity has been extended under the terms of a plan of reorganization.
(g) Coupon rate is a fixed rate for an initial period then resets at a specified date and rate.
(h) All or a portion of interest payment is paid-in-kind.
(i) Fair valued security by the Fund’s investment adviser. At December 31, 2011, the value of this security amounted to $4,632,175 representing less than 0.1% of net assets.
(j) It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.


 

  144A       All or a portion of these securities are exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At December 31, 2011, the value of Rule 144A holdings amounted to $1,281,772,438 or 9.7% of net assets.

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

   

Level 2 — prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.);

 

   

Level 3 — prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

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 to value the Fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, at value:

(†)      Equity securities, including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where the security is primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders.

Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security.

Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

                   

   

  

   

   

       

    

(a)       Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales.):

           

At December 31, 2011, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $1,142,803,414 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

   

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 142,189,517   

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (69,376,121
  

 

 

 

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 72,813,396   
  

 

 

 

At September 30, 2011, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $55,601,112 of which $1,676,396 expires on September 30, 2017 and $53,924,716 expires on September 30, 2018. These amounts may be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by regulations.

On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was enacted. The Act modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs, and, with certain exceptions, is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. Among the changes made are changes to the capital loss carryforward rules allowing for capital losses to be carried forward indefinitely. Rules in effect previously limited the carryforward period to eight years. Capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years beginning after the effective date of the Act must be fully used before capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years prior to effective date of the Act; therefore, under certain circumstances, capital loss carryforwards available as of the report date, if any, may expire unused.

(b)       Non-income producing security.

(c)       It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

•    Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

•    Level 2 — prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.);

 

•    Level 3 — prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

 

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 to value the Fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, at value:
