Important Disclosures:
The net asset value of shares of a closed-end fund may not always
correspond to the market price of such shares. Common stock of many
closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount from their net asset
value. The Fund is subject to stock market risk, which is the risk that
stock prices overall will decline over short or long periods, adversely
affecting the value of an investment in the Fund.
The Fund should only be considered as one element of a complete
investment program. An investment in the Fund should be considered
speculative. The Fund's investment policy of investing in technology and
technology-related companies and writing call options involves a high
degree of risk.
The market prices of technology and technology-related stocks tend to
exhibit a greater degree of market risk and price volatility than other
types of investments. These stocks may fall in and out of favor with
investors rapidly, which may cause sudden selling and dramatically lower
market prices. These stocks also may be affected adversely by changes in
technology, consumer and business purchasing patterns, government
regulation and/or obsolete products or services. Technology and
technology-related companies are often smaller and less experienced
companies and may be subject to greater risks than larger companies,
such as limited product lines, markets and financial and managerial
resources. These risks may be heightened for technology companies in
foreign markets.
