1 Latest declared monthly dividend per share annualized and divided by the current share price. To the extent any portion of the current distribution is estimated to be sourced from something other than income, such as return of capital, the source would be disclosed on a Section 19a-1 letter located under the “Fund News” section of the “News & Literature” section of the Fund’s website. The distribution rate may include net investment income, capital gains and/or return of capital. The distribution rate alone is not indicative of Fund performance.

* NAV for this Fund is computed weekly and at month-end; Premium/Discount is based upon the last computed NAV.

There can be no assurance that any closed-end fund will achieve its investment objective(s). Past performance does not guarantee future results.  The value of any closed-end fund will fluctuate with the value of the underlying securities. Until the original listing of a closed-end fund on an exchange, no closed-end fund's shares will have a history of public trading and, historically closed-end funds often trade at a discount to their net asset value. Closed-end funds are not FDIC-insured, nor bank-guaranteed and may lose value.  Please click on each fund link for more information regarding the fund.

Investors should consider the investment objectives and policies, risk considerations, charges and expenses of any Fund carefully before they invest or send money. For this and more information, please contact a securities representative or Claymore Securities, Inc., 2455 Corporate West Drive, Lisle, Illinois 60532, 800-345-7999.
