*Based on total assets.  Leverage achieved through the issuance of APS.  Use of financial leverage creates an opportunity for increased income, but at the same time creates special risks (including the likelihood of greater volatility of net asset value and market prices of common shares).  Please see note above entitled "Leverage" for further information on these percentages.
