Securities Valuation
The Registrants Board of Directors has adopted Valuation and Liquidity Procedures (the Procedures) to be used in determining the value of the assets held by the Registrant. These Procedures were revised and approved by the Board of Directors on December 9, 2008. In accordance with the Procedures, investments are stated at current fair value. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted closing price on the date of determination as obtained from a pricing source. If no such trade price is available, such investments are valued at the last quoted bid price, as obtained from a pricing agent or broker selected by the Registrant's Manager.
Short-term debt securities which mature in more than 60 days are valued as described above. Short-term debt securities of sufficient credit quality which mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost using a pricing source quote that approximates amortized cost.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available (including investments which are subject to limitations as to their sale) are to be valued at fair value. As a general rule, whether or not the Registrant is required to fair value price an asset is dependent on the ready availability of current market quotes or, even if readily available, the reliability of such quotes. Any assets for which market quotations are not readily available or for which available prices are not reliable, shall be determined in a manner that most fairly reflects the assets (or group of assets) fair value (i.e., the amount that the Registrant might reasonably expect to receive for the asset upon its current sale) on the valuation date, based on a consideration of all available information.
The Procedures provide that in certain instances, including without limitation, if there is a stale price for a portfolio security, in an emergency situation, or if a significant event occurs after the close of trading of a portfolio security, but before the calculation of the Registrants net asset value, the security may be valued at its fair value.
The valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in determining fair value. The inputs used for valuing the Registrants investments are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1 quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
Level 2 other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
Level 3 significant unobservable inputs (including the Registrants own assumptions in determining fair value of investments)
In accordance with Accounting Standards Codifications 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820, formerly FAS 157), fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. The valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in determining fair value. The inputs used for valuing the Registrants investments are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Notes to Portfolio of Investments (concluded)
Interest Rate and Currency Swaps
The Fund engages in certain swap transactions in order to obtain a desired return at a lower cost than if the Fund had invested directly in the asset that yielded the desired return or to hedge the leverage facility. An interest rate swap is an agreement between two parties which involves the exchange of floating and fixed rate payments (an interest rate and currency swap involves the exchange of interest rate payments in another currency) for a specified period of time. Interest rate and currency swaps involve the accrual and exchange of payments between the parties. These payments are recorded as realized gain/(loss).
During the term of the swap, changes in the value of the swap are recognized as unrealized appreciation or depreciation by marking-to-market to reflect the fair market value of the swap. When the swap is terminated, the Fund will record a realized gain/ (loss) equal to the difference, if any, between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the Funds basis in the contract. The Fund is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparty to the swap. However, the Fund does not anticipate non-performance by any counterparty.
Notional amounts of swaps are used to express the extent of involvement in these transactions, although the risk of loss may exceed amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These risks include changes in the returns of the underlying instruments, failure of the counterparties to perform under the contracts terms and the possible lack of liquidity with respect to the contracts.
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
A forward foreign currency exchange contract (Forward Contract) involves an obligation to purchase and sell a specific currency at a future date at a price set at the time of the contract. The Fund may enter into Forward Contracts in connection with security transactions or to hedge the U.S. dollar value of portfolio securities denominated in a particular currency. The Forward Contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Fund as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When the Forward Contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. These unrealized and realized gains and losses are reported on the Statement of Operations. The Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts
Futures contracts are used to manage the interest rate exposure of the Fund more efficiently. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a security for a set price on a future date. Upon entering into a contract, the Fund deposits and maintains as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is effected. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by the Fund as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Use of long futures contracts subjects the Fund to the risk of loss in excess of the amounts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities up to the notional value of the futures contracts. Use of short futures subjects the Fund to unlimited risk of loss.
Repurchase Agreements
The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements. It is the Funds policy that its custodian/counterparty segregates the underlying collateral securities, the value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest. The repurchase price generally equals the price paid by a Fund plus interest negotiated on the basis of current short-term rates. To the extent that any repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, the collateral is valued on a daily basis to determine its adequacy. If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the counterparty of the security, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited.
Foreign Currency Translation
Foreign currency amounts are translated into United States dollars on the following basis:
(i) | market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities at the exchange rates at the end of the reporting period; |
(ii) | purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. |
The Fund isolates that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in the foreign exchange rates due to fluctuations in the market prices of the securities held at the end of the reporting period. Similarly, the Fund isolates the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of portfolio securities sold during the reporting period.
Net exchange gain/(loss) is realized from sales and maturities of portfolio securities, sales of foreign currencies, settlement of securities transactions, dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds books. Net unrealized foreign exchange appreciation/(depreciation) includes changes in the value of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities arising as a result of changes in the exchange rate. The net realized and unrealized foreign exchange gain/(loss) shown in the composition of net assets represent foreign exchange gain/(loss) for book purposes that may not have been recognized for tax purposes.
Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin, including unanticipated movements in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income
Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized and unrealized gains/(losses) from security and currency transactions are calculated on the identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are accreted or amortized on an effective yield basis over the estimated lives of the respective securities. Expenses are accrued on a daily basis.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Fund is authorized to use derivatives to manage both currency and interest rate risk for global debt securities. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the contract if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. The use of derivative instruments involves, to varying degrees, elements of market risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Contingent Credit Note
The Fund is a party to International Swap Dealers Association, Inc. Master Agreements (ISDA Master Agreements). These agreements are with select counterparties and they govern transactions, including certain over-the-counter derivative and foreign exchange contracts, entered into by the Fund and the counterparty.
The ISDA Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral, and events of default or termination. The occurrence of a specified event of termination may give a counterparty the right to terminate all of its contracts and affect settlement of all outstanding transactions under the applicable ISDA Master Agreement.
