(1)Computed using average common shares outstanding.
(2)Amount is less than $(0.005).

(4)The total return based on net asset value reflects the impact of the tender and repurchase by the Trust of a portion of its common shares at 99% of the Trust’s net asset value per common share. Absent this transaction, the total return based on net asset value would have been (7.90)%.
(5)Ratios do not reflect the effect of dividend payments to preferred shareholders.

(11)The total return based on net asset value reflects the impact of the tender and repurchase by the Trust of a portion of its Auction Preferred Shares at 92% of the per share liquidation preference. Absent this transaction, the total return based on net asset value would have been 3.71%.
(12)The total return based on net asset value reflects the impact of the tender and repurchase by the Trust of a portion of its Auction Preferred Shares at 95% of the per share liquidation preference. Absent this transaction, the total return based on net asset value would have been 13.00%.
