it keeps investments in individual issuers within the limits permitted for diversified companies under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act) (i.e., 75% of its total assets must be represented by cash items, government securities, securities of other investment companies, and securities of other issuers which, at the time of investment, do not exceed 5% of the Fund's total assets at market value in the securities of any issuer and do not exceed 10% of the voting securities of any issuer);
|
| • |
it does not make investments with a view to exercising control or management;
|
| • |
it ordinarily does not invest in other investment companies, but it may purchase up to 3% of the voting securities of such investment companies, provided purchases of securities of a single investment company do not exceed in value 5% of the total assets of the Fund and all investments in investment company securities do not exceed 10% of total assets; and
|
| • |
it has no fixed policy with respect to portfolio turnover and purchases and sales in the light of economic, market and investment considerations. The portfolio turnover rates for the last ten fiscal years are shown under Financial Highlights.
|
| • |
may issue senior securities such as bonds, notes or other evidences of indebtedness if immediately after issuance the net assets of the Fund provide 300% coverage of the aggregate principal amount of all bonds, notes or other evidences of indebtedness and that amount does not exceed 150% of the capital and surplus of the Fund;
|
| • |
may issue senior equity securities on a parity with, but not having preference or priority over, the preferred stock if immediately after issuance its net assets are equal to at least 200% of the aggregate amount (exclusive of any dividends accrued or in arrears) to which all shares of the preferred stock, then outstanding, shall be entitled as a preference over the common stock in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Fund;
|
| • |
may borrow money for substantially the same purposes as it may issue senior debt securities, subject to the same restrictions and to any applicable limitations prescribed by law;
|
| • |
may engage in the business of underwriting securities either directly or through majority-owned subsidiaries subject to any applicable restrictions and limitations prescribed by law;
|
| • |
does not intend to concentrate its assets in any one industry although it may from time to time invest up to 25% of the value of its assets, taken at market value, in a single industry*;
|
| * |
For purposes of applying the limitation set forth in its concentration policy above, the Fund will generally use the industry classifications provided by the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) for classification of issuers of equity securities and the classifications provided by the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index for classification of issues of fixed-income securities. The Fund considers the investments of any underlying funds in which it invests, and will consider the portfolio positions applying the Time of Purchase Standard, which in the case of unaffiliated underlying funds is based on portfolio information made publicly available by them. The Fund does not consider futures or swaps clearinghouses or securities clearinghouses, where the Fund has exposure to such clearinghouses in the course of making investments in futures and securities, to be part of any industry.
|
| • |
may not, with limited exceptions, purchase and sell real estate directly but may do so through majority-owned subsidiaries, so long as its real estate investments do not exceed 10% of the value of the Fund's total assets;
|
| • |
may not purchase or sell commodities or commodity contracts; and
|
| • |
may make money loans (subject to restrictions imposed by law and by charter) (a) only to its subsidiaries, (b) as incidents to its business transactions or (c) for other purposes. The Fund will not lend securities if the total of all such loans would exceed 33 1/3% of the Fund's total assets, except this fundamental investment policy shall not prohibit the Fund from purchasing money market securities, loans, loan participation or other debt securities, or from entering into repurchase agreements, and it may make loans represented by repurchase agreements, so long as such loans do not exceed 10% of the value of total assets.

Information Technology Sector
.
The Fund is vulnerable to the particular risks that may affect companies in the information technology sector. Companies in the information technology sector are subject to certain risks, including the risk that new services, equipment or technologies will not be accepted by consumers and businesses or will become rapidly obsolete. Performance of such companies may be affected by factors including obtaining and protecting patents (or the failure to do so) and significant competitive pressures, including aggressive pricing of their products or services, new market entrants, competition for market share and short product cycles due to an accelerated rate of technological developments. Such competitive pressures may lead to limited earnings and/or falling profit margins. As a result, the value of their securities may fall or fail to rise. In addition, many information technology sector companies have limited operating histories and prices of these companies' securities historically have been more volatile than other securities, especially over the short term. Some companies in the information technology sector are facing increased government and regulatory scrutiny and may be subject to adverse government or regulatory action, which could negatively impact the value of their securities.

Stockholders participating in the Fund's Cash Purchase Plan (the Cash Purchase Plan) pay a $2.00 fee per cash purchase transaction; there is no fee for automatic dividend
re-investment
transactions in the Fund's Automatic Dividend Investment Plan (the Automatic Dividend Investment Plan). See Automatic Dividend Investment Plan and Cash Purchase Plan below for a description of the related services.
|
| (b) |
The Fund's management fee is 0.41% of the Fund's average daily net assets (which includes assets attributable to the Fund's common and preferred stock) and is borne by the holders of the Fund's common stock (Common Stockholders). The management fee rate noted in the table reflects the rate paid by Common Stockholders as a percentage of the Fund's net assets attributable to Common Stock.
|
| (c) |
"Total Annual Expenses Before Impact of Dividends on Preferred Stock" include acquired fund fees and expenses (expenses the Fund incurs indirectly through its investments in other investment companies) and may be higher than "Expenses to average net assets for Common Stock" shown in the
Financial Highlights
section of this report because "Total gross expenses" does not include acquired fund fees and expenses.
