Written options activity for the fiscal year to date ended June 30, 2016 was as follows:

Outstanding, beginning of period 39,470 $ 3,382,526
Options written 320,835 24,275,622
Options terminated in closing purchase transactions (156,140 ) (11,585,157 )
Options expired (166,780 ) (13,253,623 )
Outstanding, end of period 37,385 $ 2,819,368

At June 30, 2016, the Fund had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under open derivative contracts.

The Fund is subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund writes 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, 2016, the aggregate fair value of open derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) in a liability position and whose primary underlying risk exposure is equity price risk was $2,722,081.

The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Fund at June 30, 2016, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:

Aggregate cost $
Gross unrealized appreciation $ 85,633,143
Gross unrealized depreciation (10,561,384 )
Net unrealized appreciation $ 75,071,759

Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is 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

5

• 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 fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

At June 30, 2016, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Fund’s investments and open derivative instruments, which are carried at value, were as follows:

Asset Description Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
Common Stocks
Consumer Discretionary $ 64,578,720 $ 2,411,892 $ — $ 66,990,612

  • Includes foreign equity securities whose values were adjusted to reflect market trading of comparable securities or other correlated instruments that occurred after the close of trading in their applicable foreign markets.

The Fund held no investments or other financial instruments as of September 30, 2015 whose fair value was determined using Level 3 inputs. At June 30, 2016, there were no investments transferred between Level 1 and Level 2 during the fiscal year to date then ended.
