‡ Taxable equivalent yield represents the yield you would need to earn on a taxable investment in order to equal the federal tax-free yield on a municipal investment. The yield shown is based on the current market yield and a federal tax rate of 35%. At the present time, no state tax rate is assumed for this calculation.

The following information applies to closed-end funds in general: Fund shares are not guaranteed or endorsed by any bank or other insured depository institution, and are not federally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Shares of closed-end funds are subject to investment risks, including the possible loss of principal invested. There can be no assurance that fund objectives will be achieved. Closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount to their net asset value.
