The Audit Committee convened four (4) times during the 2007 calendar year. The Audit Committee currently does not have an Audit Committee Financial Expert, as such term is defined in Section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

The Committee has a written charter. The Committee is appointed to identify and select qualified candidates that have exhibited strong decision making ability, substantial business experience, relevant knowledge of the mutual fund industry (including closed-end funds), skills or technological expertise and exemplary personal integrity and reputation. In addition, the Committee seeks candidates that have experience and knowledge involving all of the service providers of a registered investment company. -5- The Committee will consider all nominees recommended by Stockholders of the Fund, so long as Stockholders send their recommendations in writing to the Secretary of the Fund in a manner consistent with the Fund's By-laws. The Committee will seek candidates for the Board that have exhibited strong decision-making ability, substantial business experience, relevant knowledge, skills or technological expertise, and exemplary personal integrity and reputation. Specifically, the Committee assesses all director nominees taking into account several factors, including, but not limited to, issues such as the current needs of the Board and the nominee's: (i) integrity, honesty, and accountability; (ii) successful leadership experience and strong business acumen; (iii) forward-looking, strategic focus; (iv) collegiality; (v) independence and absence of conflicts of interests; and (vi) ability to devote necessary time to meet director responsibilities. The Committee will ultimately recommend nominees that it believes will enhance the Board's ability to oversee, in an effective manner, the affairs and business of the Fund. The Committee will consider and evaluate Stockholder-recommended candidates by applying the same criteria used to evaluate director-recommended candidates. Currently, the By-laws provide that the deadline for submitting a Stockholder proposal for inclusion in the Fund's proxy statement and proxy for the Fund's 2009 annual meeting of Stockholders pursuant to Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, is October 31, 2008.

Stockholders are also advised to review the Fund's By-laws, which contain additional requirements with respect to advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations. During the calendar year ended December 31, 2007, the Nominating Committee met and discussed the nomination of all directors for the 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
