At June 30, 2009, the Fund had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
The Fund is subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objective. The Fund generally intends to write covered call options on individual stocks above the current value of the stock to generate premium income. In writing call options on individual stocks, the Fund in effect, sells potential appreciation in the value of the applicable stock above the exercise price in exchange for the option premium received. The Fund retains the risk of loss, minus the premium received, should the price of the underlying stock decline.
At June 30, 2009, the aggregate fair value of derivative instruments (not accounted for as hedging instruments under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133) in a liability position and whose primary underlying risk exposure is equity price risk was $15,320,871.
The Fund adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, effective October 1, 2008. FAS 157 established a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
| | Level 1 quoted prices in active markets
for identical investments |
| --- | --- |
| | Level 2 other significant observable
inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments,
interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
| | Level 3 significant unobservable inputs
(including a funds own assumptions in determining the fair
value of investments) |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
