The Fund adopted the Accounting Standards Update, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements
which provides guidance on how investment assets and liabilities are to be valued and disclosed. Specifically, the amendment requires reporting entities to disclose
i) the input and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements, for Level 2 or Level 3 positions, ii)
transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) will be required to be disclosed on a gross basis (i.e. transfers out must be disclosed separately from
transfers in) as well as the reason(s) for the transfer, and iii) purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be shown on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward
rather than as one net number. The effective date of the amendment is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, however, the requirement
to provide the Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after
December 15, 2010. The Fund adopted the disclosures required by this amendment, which did not have a material impact on the financial statements.
               
The Fund values Level 1 securities using readily available market quotations in active markets. The Fund values Level 2 fixed income securities using independent
pricing providers who employ matrix pricing models utilizing market prices, broker quotes and prices of securities with comparable maturities and qualities.
The Funds value Level 2 equity securities using various observable market inputs in accordance with procedures approved by the Board of Trustees as described above.
The fair value estimate for the Level 3 security in the Fund was determined in good faith by the Pricing Committee pursuant to the Valuation Procedures adopted by
Board of Trustees.  There were various factors considered in reaching fair value determination, including, but not limited, to the following: the type of security,
the extent of public trading of the security, analysis of the company’s performance and the present value of potential future earnings of the investment.
               
The following table represents the Fund’s investments carried on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities by caption and by level within the fair value hierarchy as of
January 31, 2011.
