AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT
The role of the Fund's Audit Committee (the "Audit Committee") is to
assist the Board of Directors in its oversight of (i) the quality and integrity
of the Fund's financial statement reporting process and the independent audit
and reviews thereof; (ii) the Fund's accounting and financial reporting policies
and practices, its internal controls, and, as appropriate, the internal controls
of certain of its service providers; (iii) the Fund's compliance with legal and
regulatory requirements; and (iv) the independent registered public accounting
firm's qualifications, independence, and performance. The Audit Committee also
is required to prepare an audit committee report pursuant to the rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") for inclusion in the Fund's
annual proxy statement. The Audit Committee operates pursuant to the Audit
Committee Charter (the "Audit Charter") that was most recently reviewed and
approved by the Board of Directors on February 28, 2008.
The members of the Audit Committee are not, and do not represent
themselves to be, professionally engaged in the practice of auditing or
accounting and are not employed by the Fund for accounting, financial
management, or internal control purposes. Moreover, the Audit Committee relies
on and makes no independent verification of the facts presented to it or
representations made by management or the Fund's independent registered public
accounting firm. Accordingly, the Audit Committee's oversight does not provide
an independent basis to determine that management has maintained appropriate
accounting and/or financial reporting principles and policies, or internal
controls and procedures, designed to assure compliance with accounting standards
and applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, the Audit Committee's
considerations and discussions referred to above do not provide assurance that
the audit of the Fund's financial statements has been carried out in accordance
with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States) or that the financial statements are presented in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles (United States).
Based on its consideration of the audited financial statements and the
discussions referred to above with management and the Fund's independent
registered public accounting firm, and subject to the limitations on the
responsibilities and role of the Audit Committee set forth in the Audit Charter
and those discussed above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Fund's Board
of Directors that the Fund's audited financial statements be included in the
Fund's Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.
