The distribution reduction primarily reflects the lower interest
rate environment that had previously existed in the market for the
reinvestment of the proceeds from coupon payments and from called,
sold and/or matured securities that are held, or may be held, by
the Fund and from the higher cost of borrowings currently being
borne by the Fund.
