| (a) | Returns represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Investment returns and
the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. When shares are sold, they may be worth more
or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance
data presented. Visit www.gabelli.com for performance information as of the most recent month end.
Performance returns for periods of less than one year are not annualized. Investors should
carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses of the Fund before
investing. The CBOE S&P 500 Buy/Write Index is an unmanaged benchmark index designed to reflect the
return on a portfolio that consists of a long position in the stocks in the S&P
500 Index and a short position in a S&P 500 (SPX) call option. The Philadelphia Gold & Silver
Index is an unmanaged indicator of stock market performance of large North American gold and
silver companies, while the Amex Energy Select Sector Index is an unmanaged indicator of stock
market performance of large U.S. companies involved in the development or production of energy
products. The Barclays Capital Government/Corporate Bond Index is an unmanaged market value
weighted index that tracks the total return performance of fixed rate, publicly placed, dollar
denominated obligations. Dividends and interest income are considered reinvested. You cannot
invest directly in an index. |
| --- | --- |
| (b) | Total returns and average annual returns reflect changes in the NAV per share and reinvestment
of distributions at NAV on the ex-dividend date and are net of expenses. Since inception return is
based on an initial NAV of $19.06. |
| (c) | Total returns and average annual returns reflect changes in closing market values on the NYSE
Amex and reinvestment of distributions. Since inception return is based on an initial offering
price of $20.00. |

We have separated the portfolio managers’ commentary from the financial statements and investment portfolio due to corporate governance regulations stipulated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. We have done this to ensure that the content of the portfolio managers’ commentary is unrestricted. The financial statements and investment portfolio are mailed separately from the commentary. Both the commentary and the financial statements, including the portfolio of investments, will be available on our website at www.gabelli.com.

1. Security Valuation. Portfolio securities listed or traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange or traded in the U.S. over-the-counter market for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price or a market’s official closing price as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. If there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the average of the closing bid and asked prices or, if there were no asked prices quoted on that day, then the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. If no bid or asked prices are quoted on such day, the security is valued at the most recently available price or, if the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) so determines, by such other method as the Board shall determine in good faith to reflect its fair market value. Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities exchange or market are valued according to the broadest and most representative market, as determined by Gabelli Funds, LLC (the “Adviser”).

Portfolio securities primarily traded on a foreign market are generally valued at the preceding closing values of such securities on the relevant market, but may be fair valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board if market conditions change significantly after the close of the foreign market but prior to the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. Debt instruments with remaining maturities of sixty days or less that are not credit impaired are valued at amortized cost, unless the Board determines such amount does not reflect the securities’ fair value, in which case these securities will be fair valued as determined by the Board. Debt instruments having a maturity greater than sixty days for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the average of the latest bid and asked prices. If there were no asked prices quoted on such day, the security is valued using the closing bid price. Futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price of the exchange or board of trade on which the applicable contract is traded.

Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined by the Board.

The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy 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 risk, etc.); and
• Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s determinations as
to the fair value of investments).

2. Derivative Financial Instruments. The Fund may engage in various portfolio investment strategies by investing in a number of derivative financial instruments for the purpose of increasing the income of the Fund, hedging against changes in the value of its portfolio securities and in the value of securities it intends to purchase, or hedging against a specific transaction with respect to either the currency in which the transaction is denominated or another currency. Investing in certain derivative financial instruments, including participation in the options, futures, or swap markets, entails certain execution, liquidity, hedging, tax, and securities, interest, credit, or currency market risks. Losses may arise if the Adviser’s prediction of movements in the direction of the securities, foreign currency, and interest rate markets is inaccurate. Losses may also arise if the counterparty does not perform its duties under a contract, or that, in the event of default, the Fund may be delayed in or prevented from obtaining payments or other contractual remedies owed to it under derivative contracts. The creditworthiness of the counterparties is closely monitored in order to minimize these risks. Participation in derivative transactions involves investment risks, transaction costs, and potential losses to which the Fund would not be subject absent the use of these strategies. The consequences of these risks, transaction costs, and losses may have a negative impact on the Fund’s ability to pay distributions.

Current notional amounts are an indicator of the volume of the Fund’s derivative activities during the period.

Swap Agreements. The Fund may enter into equity swap transactions for the purpose of increasing the income of the Fund. The use of swaps is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio security transactions. In a swap, a set of future cash flows is exchanged between two counterparties. One of these cash flow streams will typically be based on a reference interest rate combined with the performance of a notional value of shares of a stock. The other will be based on the performance of the shares of a stock. Depending on the general state of short-term interest rates and the returns on the Fund’s portfolio securities at the time a swap transaction reaches its scheduled termination date, there is a risk that the Fund will not be able to obtain a replacement transaction or that the terms of the replacement will not be as favorable as on the expiring transaction.

The Fund has entered into equity swap agreements with The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. Details of the swaps at September 30, 2009 are as follows:

Notional Equity Security Interest Rate/ Termination Net Unrealized
Amount Received Equity Security Paid Date Appreciation
One Month LIBOR
plus 65 bps plus
Market Value Market Value
Appreciation on: Depreciation on:
$374,041 (528,986 Shares) LLX Logistica SA LLX Logistica SA 3/23/10 $ 1,560,762

886,032 (672,000 Shares) Metalicos SA Metalicos SA 3/23/10 3,271,118
$ 4,831,880

For open derivative instruments as of September 30, 2009, see the preceding tables, which are also indicative of activity for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Options. The Fund may purchase or write call or put options on securities or indices for the purpose of increasing the income of the Fund. As a writer of put options, the Fund receives a premium at the outset and then bears the risk of unfavorable changes in the price of the financial instrument underlying the option. The Fund would incur a loss if the price of the underlying financial instrument decreases between the date the option is written and the date on which the option is terminated. The Fund would realize a gain, to the extent of the premium, if the price of the financial instrument increases between those dates. If a written call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether there has been a realized gain or loss. If a written put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the security.

As a purchaser of put options, the Fund pays a premium for the right to sell to the seller of the put option the underlying security at a specified price. The seller of the put has the obligation to purchase the underlying security upon exercise at the exercise price. If the price of the underlying security declines, the Fund would realize a gain upon sale or exercise. If the price of the underlying security increases or stays the same, the Fund would realize a loss upon sale or at the expiration date, but only to the extent of the premium paid.

In the case of call options, these exercise prices are referred to as “in-the-money”, “at-the-money”, and “out-of-the-money”, respectively. The Fund may write (a) in-the-money call options when the Adviser expects that the price of the underlying security will remain stable or decline during the option period, (b) at-the-money call options when the Adviser expects that the price of the underlying security will remain stable, decline, or advance moderately during the option period, and (c) out-of-the-money call options when the Adviser expects that the premiums received from writing the call option will be greater than the appreciation in the price of the underlying security above the exercise price. By writing a call option, the Fund limits its opportunity to profit from any increase in the market value of the underlying security above the exercise price of the option. Out-of-the-money, at-the-money, and in-the-money put options (the reverse of call options as to the relation of exercise price to market price) may be utilized in the same market environments that such call options are used in equivalent transactions. Option positions at September 30, 2009 are presented within the Schedule of Investments.

3. Tax Information. Under the current tax law, capital losses related to securities and foreign currency realized after October 31 and prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be treated as occurring on the first day of the following year. For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Fund deferred capital losses of $27,712,086 and currency losses of $130,859.
