(b) Since the Fund's net earning rates fluctuate from month to month, there will be periods when the Fund may over-earn or under-earn its monthly dividend rate. This fluctuation will have the effect of adding to or subtracting from the Fund's undistributed (overdistributed) net investment income balance. Fund management analyzes the current and projected net earning rates prior to recommending dividend amounts to the Fund's Board of Trustees for declaration. There can be no assurance that the monthly dividend rate will remain at its current level or that the undistributed net investment income balance, if any, will be sufficient to cover any shortfall in earnings to meet the current dividend rate. The undistributed (overdistributed) net investment income balance is exclusive of market premium amortization on corporate bonds in accordance with federal income tax treatment.

(c) Net Investment Income for the fiscal quarter and year ended February 28, 2013 includes market premium amortization on corporate bonds of $325,235 (less than $0.01 per common share) and $1,054,645 ($0.02 per common share), respectively. Net Investment Income for the fiscal quarter and year ended February 29, 2012 includes market premium amortization on corporate bonds of $200,566 (less than $0.01 per common share) and $970,874 ($0.02 per common share), respectively. For tax purposes, the Fund has elected not to amortize market premium on corporate bonds.

Allianz Global Investors Fund Management LLC ("AGIFM"), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Allianz Asset Management of America L.P., serves as the Fund's investment manager and is a member of Munich-based Allianz Group. Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC, an AGIFM affiliate, serves as the Fund's sub-adviser.
