Investments in derivatives are counted toward the Fund’s 80% policy to the extent that they provide investment exposure to the securities included within that policy or to one or more market risk factors associated with such securities. For purposes of the Fund’s 80% policy, dividend-paying equity securities are equity securities of companies that pay out a portion of their profits to shareholders of such securities on a periodic basis (i.e., at least once within the company’s latest fiscal year). Foreign securities may include securities of (i) foreign government issuers, (ii) issuers organized or located outside the United States, (iii) issuers which primarily trade in a market located outside the United States, or (iv) issuers doing a substantial amount of business outside the United States, which the Fund considers to be companies that derive at least 50% of their revenue or profits from business outside the United States or have at least 50% of their sales or assets outside the United States. The Fund will allocate its assets among various regions and countries (but in no less than three different countries). For temporary defensive purposes the Fund may deviate very substantially from this allocation./div div style="margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial;"The Fund will primarily invest in equity securities, which include common stock, preferred stock and non-convertible preferred stock. The Fund may also purchase securities convertible into common and preferred stock. The Fund may invest in securities of non-U.S. issuers that can be U.S. dollar based or non-U.S. dollar based. The Fund may invest in securities of companies of any market capitalization, but intends to invest primarily in securities of large capitalization companies.

The Fund may enter into currency transactions on a hedged or unhedged basis in order to seek total return. The Fund may, when consistent with its investment objective, buy or sell options or futures on a security or an index of securities and may buy options on a currency or a basket of currencies, or enter into foreign currency transactions, including swaps. The Fund may also use forward foreign currency exchange contracts, which are obligations to buy or sell a currency at a pre-determined rate in the future. Derivatives are financial instruments whose value is derived from another security, a currency or an index. The use of options, futures, indexed securities, inverse securities, swaps and forward contracts can be effective in protecting or enhancing the value of the Fund’s assets. The Fund may, but under normal market conditions generally does not intend to, use derivatives for speculation to increase returns./div div style="margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial;"The Fund may invest in indexed and inverse securities./div div style="margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial;"The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading of portfolio securities to achieve its principal investment strategies./div div style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial;"The Fund is classified as diversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”)./div
