(1) The Fund receives a fixed rate based upon the notional amount of $3 million and if a defined credit event occurs,
|
||||||
pays cumulative losses in excess of a stated percentage on an underlying basket of distinct corporate entities.
|
||||||
The maximum loss exposure is $3 million.
|
||||||
(2) Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the market value of credit default swap
|
||||||
agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country as of period end serve as an indicator of the
|
||||||
current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The
|
||||||
implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront
|
||||||
payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. Wider credit spreads represent a deterioration of the referenced
|
||||||
entity's credit soundless and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms
|
||||||
of the agreement.
|
||||||
(3) The Fund pays the floating rate and receives the fixed rate.

The Fund values equity securities at the last reported sale price on the principal exchange or in the principal over-the-counter (“OTC”) market in which such securities are traded, as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on the day the securities are being valued or, if there are no sales, at the mean between the last available bid and asked prices on that day. Securities traded on the NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Preferred stocks are valued at their sales price as of the close of the exchange on which they are traded. Preferred stocks for which the last sales price is not available are valued at the last available bid price. Debt securities (including asset-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and term loans) are valued at the last available bid price. If bids are not available, debt securities are estimated using valuation models that incorporate market data that may include assumptions relating to current yields, timing of cash flows, dealer quotes, prepayment risk, value of underlying collateral, general market conditions, liquidity and prices of other debt securities with comparable coupon rates, maturities/duration, and credit quality. Municipal bonds are valued at the last available bid price for such securities or, if such prices are not available, at prices for securities of comparable maturity, quality and type. Foreign securities are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rate. The Fund’s securities that are primarily traded in foreign markets may be traded in such markets on days that the NYSE is closed. As a result, the net asset value of the Fund may be significantly affected on days when holders of common shares have no ability to trade common shares on the NYSE. Exchange traded funds are valued at the last sales price or official closing price on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Investment companies are valued at the last available closing price. The Fund values exchange-traded options and other derivative contracts at the mean of the best bid and asked prices at the close on those exchanges on which they are traded. Swaps are valued daily by independent pricing services or dealers using the mid price. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less, at the time of purchase, are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. The Fund values money market funds at net asset value.
|
|||||
For fixed income securities, fair valuations may include input from Guggenheim Partners Investment Management, LLC (“GPIM”) utilizing a wide variety of market data including yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity, rating, indications of value from security dealers, evaluations of anticipated cash flows or collateral, spread over Treasuries, and other information and analysis. GPIM also uses third party service providers to model certain securities using cash flow models to represent a fair market value.
|
|||||
For those securities where quotations or prices are not available, the valuations are determined in accordance with procedures established in good faith by management and approved by the Board of Trustees. A valuation committee consisting of representatives from investments, fund administration, legal and compliance is responsible for the oversight of the valuation process of the Fund and convenes monthly, or more frequently as needed. The valuation committee reviews monthly Level 3 fair valued securities methodology, price overrides, broker quoted securities, price source changes, illiquid securities, stale priced securities, halted securities, price challenges, fair valued securities sold and back testing trade prices in relation to prior day closing prices. On a quarterly basis, the valuations and methodologies of all Level 3 fair valued securities are presented to the Fund’s Trustees.
|
|||||
Valuations in accordance with these procedures are intended to reflect each security’s (or asset’s) “fair value.” Fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive to sell an investment or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with an independent buyer in the principal market, or in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the investment or liability. Each such determination should be based on a consideration of all relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. Examples of such factors may include, but are not limited to: (i) the type of security, (ii) the initial cost of the security, (iii) the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, (iv) the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies, (v) quotations or evaluated prices from broker-dealers and/or pricing services, (vi) information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange traded securities), (vii) an analysis of the company’s financial statements, and (viii) an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold (e.g. the existence of pending merger activity, public offerings or tender offers that might affect the value of the security).
|
|||||
There are three different categories for valuation. Level 1 valuations are those based up quoted prices in active markets. Level 2 valuations are those based upon quoted prices in inactive markets or based upon significant observable inputs (e.g. yield curves; benchmark interest rates; indices). Level 3 valuations are those based upon unobservable inputs (e.g. discounted cash flow analysis; non-market based methods used to determine fair valuations).
|
|||||
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. In addition, the Fund values certain Level 2 fixed income securities using broker quotes. The Fund values Level 2 equity securities using various observable market inputs.

The Fund received the Alion Science and Technology Corp. Warrants, which have a penny per share exercise price, as part of the purchase of Alion Science and Technology 12% corporate bonds which mature on November 1, 2014. The company has two bonds outstanding with the longer dated of the two bonds trading at a distressed level. The warrant and the underlying stock of the company are both unlisted securities. As a result of these factors, the Fund is assigning a price of $0.00 to the warrants. If the warrants begin trading on an exchange, the price of the warrants could increase.

FCC Financing Subsidiary, LLC, Series 2010-1A is a mezzanine tranche of a securitization of asset based loans managed by First Capital Corporation. The security pays a coupon rate of 12.25%. The current price of $100.33 reflects the high coupon offset by the lack of liquidity and investor knowledge in the name and investor reluctance to pay high premiums for less liquid asset backed securities.
|
|||||
Deb Shops Term Loan is a 1st Lien Sr. Secured Term Loan for Deb Shops, a fashion apparel retailer focused on women between the ages 15-29. The current price of $100.00 reflects the high yield of 12.50%, which is based on the small size of the issue ($60mm) and lack of liquidity (only three holders). Because the term loan does not have any call premium a buyer would not be willing to pay above par for the loan.
|
|||||
Deb Shops Common Stock – This is the common equity of Deb Shops. The Fund acquired this common stock in exchange for the cancelation of a portion of our pre-petition 1st lien term loan as part of the Company’s exit from Bankruptcy in Q4 2011.

|||||
