(1) NAVs are priced as of the close of business on the month-end and year, as indicated above.
(a) These distributions were declared on September 22, 2006. They had an October 2, 2006, ex-dividend date and were paid on October 25, 2006, to shareholders of record on October 4, 2006.
(b) Based on a three-month average.
(c) Accumulated undistributed (distributions in excess of) net investment income is reflected in a fund's net asset value. Any reduction of this amount will reduce net asset value penny-for-penny.
(d) Calculated by dividing preferred distributions paid during the month by the number of common shares outstanding.
(e) The difference between net assets and total assets for XAA, MXA, and MXN is primarily due to the issuance of preferred stock; net assets reflect common stock only. For ASP, BSP, CSP, SLA, and MRF, the difference is primarily due to the funds' use of borrowings.

The aforementioned financial data is unaudited. It has, however, been obtained from sources deemed reliable.
