Notes to Financial Highlights
|
|
(a)
|
In addition to the fees and expenses that the Fund bears directly, the Fund indirectly bears a pro rata share of the fees
and expenses of any other funds in which it invests. Such indirect expenses are not included in the Fund’s reported expense ratios.
|
(b)
|
Total net expenses include the impact of certain fee waivers/expense reimbursements made by the Investment Manager and certain
of its affiliates, if applicable.
|
(c)
|
Ratios include interfund lending expense which is less than 0.01%.
|
(d)
|
The benefits derived from expense reductions had an impact of less than 0.01%.
|
(e)
|
Ratios include interest and fee expense related to the participation in certain inverse floater programs. If interest and
fee expense related to the participation in certain inverse
floater programs had been excluded, expenses would have been lower by less than 0.01%. Due to an equal increase in interest
income from fixed rate municipal bonds held in
trust, there is no impact on the Fund’s net assets, net asset value per share, total return or net investment income.
|
(f)
|
Ratios include the impact of voluntary waivers paid by the Investment Manager. For the periods indicated below, if the Investment
Manager had not paid these voluntary waivers, the Fund’s net expense ratio would increase by:
