| (1) | Computed using average shares outstanding. |
| (2) | Amount is less than $0.0005. |
| (3) | Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value or market value with all distributions
reinvested. Distributions are assumed to be reinvested at prices obtained under the Fund’s dividend reinvestment plan. |
| (4) | Includes a reduction by the investment adviser of a portion of its adviser fee due to the Fund’s
investment in the Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Funds - Government Portfolio (equal to less than 0.005% of average daily net
assets for the year ended October 31, 2023 and 2022). |
| (5) | Excludes the effect of custody fee credits, if any, of less than 0.005%. Effective September 1, 2015, custody fee credits, which were
earned on cash deposit balances, were discontinued by the custodian. |
| (6) | Net investment income per share includes special dividends which amounted to $0.234 per share. Excluding special dividends, the ratio
of net investment income to average daily net assets would have been 0.74%. |
