Past performance is not indicative of future performance. An investor should consider the fund's investment objective, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing.
To the extent any portion of the distribution is estimated to be sourced from something other than income, such as return of capital, the source would be disclosed on a Section 19(a)-1 letter located under the "SEC Filings and News" section of the funds' website, www.preferredincome.com. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon a fund's investment performance during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to change based on tax regulations. A distribution rate that is largely comprised of sources other than income may not be reflective of a fund's performance.
PFD, PFO and FFC invest primarily in preferred and other- income producing securities with an investment objective of high current income consistent with preservation of capital. FLC invests primarily in preferred and other income-producing securities with a primary investment objective of high current income and a secondary objective of capital appreciation. DFP invests primarily in preferred and other income-producing securities with an investment objective of total return, with an emphasis on high current income.
