Unless the Fund receives the prior written consent of the Purchaser (such consent to be determined in the good faith discretion of the Purchaser), the Fund (1) will invest at least 80% of its Managed Assets in securities that, at the time of investment, were rated within the four highest grades (Baa or BBB or better) by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, S&P or Fitch or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality; and (2) may invest up to 20% of its Managed Assets in municipal securities that, at the time of investment, are rated Ba/BB or B or lower by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, S&P or Fitch or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. Any breach of this Section 6.12 is subject to cure within 30 calendar days of discovery thereof or written notice by any Holder.

For so long as the Fund fails to provide the information required under Sections 6.1(m)and 6.1(n), the Purchaser may calculate, for purposes of Section 2.6(b)(ii)(A)(2) of the Statement, the Effective Leverage Ratio using the most recently received information required to be delivered pursuant to Sections 6.1(m) and 6.1(n) and the Market Values of securities determined by the third-party pricing service which provided the Market Values to the Fund on the most recent date that information was properly provided by the Fund pursuant to the requirements of Section 6.1(m) and 6.1(n). The Effective Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Purchaser in such instances shall be binding on the Fund. If required, the Fund shall restore the Effective Leverage Ratio as provided in the Statement.

23

In connection with calculating the Effective Leverage Ratio, the Fund’s total assets and accrued liabilities shall reflect the positive or negative net obligations of the Fund under each Derivative Contract determined in accordance with the Fund’s valuation policies.

The Fund shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to engage at all times a Calculation and Paying Agent to perform the duties to be performed by the Calculation and Paying Agent specified herein and in the Statement.

The Fund will use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with reasonable due diligence requests from the Purchaser in connection with any proposed sale by the Purchaser of the RVMTP Shares in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act and otherwise permitted by this Agreement, provided that (i) the Fund need not comply with any such request more than twice in any period of twelve consecutive months, (ii) any prospective purchaser of the RVMTP Shares from the Purchaser shall execute a confidentiality agreement substantially to the effect of Section 7.13 hereof prior to receiving any due diligence materials provided pursuant to such due diligence request, and (iii) the Purchaser’s due diligence requests pursuant to this Section 6.15 and the Fund’s responses thereto will each be similar in scope to the Due Diligence Request and the Fund’s responses thereto, respectively, subject to reasonable modifications to such requests and responses in light of the circumstances in which they are made.

All information, reports and other papers, documentation and data with respect to the Fund furnished to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 6.15 shall be, at the time the same are so furnished, complete and correct in all material respects.

The Fund agrees to arrange to maintain settlement of the RVMTP Shares in global book entry form through the Securities Depository or such other clearance system acceptable to the Purchaser.

The Fund shall promptly, at the request of the Purchaser, enter into an agreement, on terms mutually satisfactory to the Fund and the Purchaser, of the type specified in Section 12(d)(1)(E)(iii) of the 1940 Act, so as to permit the Purchaser or any transferee satisfying the requirements set forth in Section 2.1 to rely on the provisions of Section 12(d)(1)(E)(iii) of the 1940 Act.

The Fund may use the net proceeds from the VMTP Purchase to purchase, through the Tender Offer, all or a portion of the outstanding Auction Preferred Shares in accordance with the Tender Offer Documents on or about the Effective Date and, pending such purchase, the Fund invested such net proceeds in Deposit Securities. Any remaining proceeds from the sale of the VMTP Shares may be used for any purpose permitted under the Declaration, By-Laws and Original VMTP Purchase Agreement. Any proceeds from the sale of the Additional RVMTP Shares may be used for any purpose permitted under the Declaration, By-Laws and this Agreement.

(a) The obligations of the Fund hereunder shall not in any way be modified or limited by reference to any other document, instrument or agreement (including, without limitation, the RVMTP Shares or any other Related Document). The rights of the Purchaser hereunder are separate from and in addition to any rights that any Holder or Designated Owner of any VMTP Share may have under the terms of such VMTP Share or any Related Document or otherwise.

(b) No failure or delay by the Fund or the Purchaser in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the RVMTP Shares shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. No failure or delay by the Fund or the Purchaser in exercising any right, power or privilege under or in respect of the RVMTP Shares or any other Related Document shall affect the rights, powers or privileges of the Fund or the Purchaser hereunder or shall operate as a limitation or waiver thereof. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

(a) The Fund shall upon demand reimburse the Purchaser (to the extent that payments for the following items are not made under the other provisions hereof) for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and costs of outside counsel, and reasonable consulting, accounting, appraisal, investment banking, and similar professional fees and charges) incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the enforcement of or preservation of rights under this Agreement, provided, however, that the Fund shall not be responsible for the Purchaser’s costs in connection with any subsequent offer and sale of the RVMTP Shares made by the Purchaser pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act or another available exemption from registration under the Securities Act, in a manner not involving any public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Fund shall not be responsible under this Section 7.3(a) for the fees and costs of more than one law firm in any one jurisdiction with respect to any one proceeding or set of related proceedings for the Purchaser, unless the Purchaser shall have reasonably concluded that there are legal defenses available to them that are different from or additional to those available to the Fund.

(b) The Fund agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and each other Indemnified Person of the Purchaser from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them (including reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel) which are related to or arise out of (A) any material misstatements or any material statements omitted to be made in the Offering Memorandum (including any documents incorporated by reference therein) or (B) any claim by any third party relating to the offering or sale of the RVMTP Shares by the Fund or the holding of the RVMTP Shares by the Purchaser (x) that the Purchaser aided and abetted a breach of a fiduciary duty by the Fund or any director or officer of the Fund or (y) arising from any act by the Fund or any director or officer of the Fund (excluding in any such case of either clauses (A) or (B), claims, losses, liabilities or expenses arising out of or resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Person as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction).

(c) If any action, suit, proceeding or investigation is commenced, as to which an Indemnified Person proposes to demand indemnification, it shall notify the indemnifying party with reasonable promptness; provided, however, that any failure by such Indemnified Person to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from its obligations hereunder (except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure to promptly notify). The indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense of any such action, suit, proceeding or

26

investigation, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person. The Indemnified Person shall have the right to counsel of its own choice to represent it, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the indemnifying party has failed promptly to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person in accordance with the preceding sentence or (ii) the Indemnified Person shall have been advised by counsel that there exist actual or potential conflicting interests between the indemnifying party and such Indemnified Person, including situations in which one or more legal defenses may be available to such Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar actions or proceedings arising out of the same general allegations be liable for fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all Indemnified Persons of such other party; and such counsel shall, to the extent consistent with its professional responsibilities, cooperate with the indemnifying party and any counsel designated by the indemnifying party.

Each party further agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the other party (the consent of a party shall not be required to the extent such party is neither requesting indemnification nor being requested to provide indemnification), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each other Indemnified Person from all liability and obligations arising therefrom. The Fund further agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability to the Fund arising out of or in connection with the proposed transactions giving rise to or contemplated by this Agreement except for such liability for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to the extent they have resulted from an Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Indemnified Person shall be responsible or liable to the indemnifying party or any other person for consequential, special or punitive damages which may be alleged as a result of this Agreement.

(d) Nothing in this Section 7.3 is intended to limit either party’s obligations contained in other parts of this Agreement or the RVMTP Shares.

Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Fund and the Purchaser; provided, that the Fund shall not make or agree to any amendment or waiver to the Declaration or the Statement that materially and adversely affects any preference, right or power of the RVMTP Shares or the Holders or Designated Owners thereof except as permitted under the Declaration or the Statement.

The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Neither the Fund nor the Purchaser may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party (other than by operation of law), except that (1) any transferee satisfying the requirements set forth in Section 2.1 and which has executed and delivered to the Fund the transferee certificate attached as Exhibit C shall, prior to registration of any RVMTP Shares under the Securities Act, have the rights set forth in Section 7.15 and shall, so long as such transferee has provided a means for the Fund to transmit such information electronically to it, be entitled to receive the information delivered pursuant to Sections 6.1(m) and 6.1(n) and such transferees shall be deemed a party to this Agreement for purposes of Sections 6.1(m) and 6.1(n) and the confidentiality provisions herein as specified in the transferee certificate and (2) the Purchaser may assign its rights or obligations to any affiliates of the Purchaser or any tender option bond trust (or similar vehicle) in which the Purchaser retains the entire residual interest. Any assignment without such prior written consent shall be void.

27

This Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of (x) the registration of any Outstanding RVMTP Shares under the Securities Act and (y) the payment in full of all amounts then due and owing to the Purchaser hereunder and under the RVMTP Shares; and notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, Section 7.3, Section 7.7, Section 7.8, Section 7.10, Section 7.11, the second sentence of Section 7.12, and Section 7.13 (for a period of two (2) years after the termination of this Agreement in the case of Section 7.13) shall remain in full force and effect, except that the Purchaser may assign its rights or obligations to any affiliates of the Purchaser or any tender option bond trust (or similar vehicle) in which the Purchaser retains the entire residual interest. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Purchaser sells all of its RVMTP Shares and, in the case of a sale to a tender option bond trust (or similar vehicle), the Purchaser does not nor does any affiliate of the Purchaser retain any residual interest in any RVMTP Shares sold to such tender option bond trust (or similar vehicle) other than in connection with the Purchaser’s repurchase of the RVMTP Shares from the tender option bond trust (or similar vehicle), no further amounts will be due and owing to the Purchaser with respect to such RVMTP Shares for purposes of clause (y) of this Section 7.6.

This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the domestic law of the State of New York.

THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY SUBMIT TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE FEDERAL AND NEW YORK STATE COURTS LOCATED IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY MATTERS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

The Fund and the Purchaser hereby waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by any of the parties hereto against the other on any matters whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this Agreement.

This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. Any counterpart or other signature delivered by facsimile or by electronic mail shall be deemed for all purposes as being a good and valid execution and delivery of this Agreement by that party. The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that this Agreement may be signed and/or transmitted by e-mail or a .pdf document or using electronic signature technology (e.g., via DocuSign, Adobesign, or other electronic signature technology), and that such signed electronic record shall be valid and as effective to bind the party so signing as a paper copy bearing such party’s handwritten signature. The parties further consent and agree that (i) to the extent a party signs this Agreement using electronic signature technology, by clicking “SIGN”, such party is signing this Agreement electronically; and (ii) the electronic signatures appearing on this Agreement shall be treated, for purposes of validity, enforceability and admissibility, the same as handwritten signatures.

28

This Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns any rights or remedies hereunder.

Except as specified herein, this Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the matters set forth herein and shall supersede any and all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

The Fund and the Purchaser agree that the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement are in addition to the terms and provisions set forth in the Statement. Further, the Fund and the Purchaser agree and consent to the updates to the Statement as described herein.

Any information delivered by a party to this Agreement to any other party pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 6.1 in the case of the Fund (collectively, the “Information”), shall not be disclosed by such other party (or its affiliates or their respective employees, representatives or agents) to any person or entity (except as required by law or to such of its agents and advisors as need to know and agree to be bound by the provisions of this paragraph) without the prior written consent of the party delivering the Information. The parties agree that the Information (including, but not limited to, the Information provided pursuant to Section 6.1(m) and Section 6.1(n)) shall be used solely for the purposes set forth in this Agreement and the other Related Documents, including the purposes set forth in the next paragraph of this Section 7.13, and for no other purpose, including the purchase or sale by the Purchaser (or its affiliates) of the Fund’s Common Shares or any other security. Without limiting the foregoing, the parties hereto expressly agree to maintain the Information in confidence for purposes of Regulation FD promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Portfolio Information (1) is the confidential property of the Fund, (2) may not be used for any purpose except in connection with the provision of services to the Funds or for an agreed-upon legitimate business purpose (which shall be deemed to include, for example, credit monitoring and risk management monitoring activities with respect to the RVMTP Shares), and (3) may not be traded upon. Upon the written request from the Fund or the Investment Manager, the Purchaser shall, and shall cause its affiliates or their respective employees, representatives or agents to, promptly return or destroy any Portfolio Information as requested by the Fund or the Investment Manager, as applicable, except as otherwise required by applicable law or the Purchaser’s record retention policies and procedures.

The obligations of confidentiality and use set out in the preceding paragraph do not extend to Information that is or becomes available to the public or is or becomes available to the party receiving the Information on a non-confidential basis or is disclosed to Holders or Designated Owners or potential Holders or Designated Owners (including potential investors in tender option bond trusts (or similar vehicles) where such trust is a potential Holder or Designated Owner), in each case in their capacity as such, in the offering documents of the Fund, in notices to Holders or Designated Owners pursuant to one or more of the Related Documents, was or is independently developed by the party receiving the Information without use or reference to the Information provided by the disclosing party, or pursuant to the Fund’s or the Purchaser’s informational obligations under Rule 144A(d)(4) or other reporting obligation of

29

the Securities and Exchange Commission; or is required or requested to be disclosed (i) by a regulatory agency (including self-regulatory agencies) or in connection with an examination of any party or its representatives by regulatory authorities (including self-regulatory authorities), (ii) pursuant to judicial order, subpoena or other legal, regulatory, or self-regulatory process, (iii) at the express direction of any other authorized government agency, (iv) to its independent attorneys or auditors, (v) as requested or required by any NRSRO, (vi) as otherwise required by, or requested to be disclosed pursuant to, law, rule, or regulation, (vii) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or in any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the enforcement of rights hereunder, (viii) by or to an affiliate, director, officer, employee, or agent (including professional advisor) of the disclosing party that is subject to a written agreement containing provisions substantially similar to those of this Section 7.13, (ix) by or to a prospective purchaser of the RVMTP Shares that is (a) a transferee that would be permitted pursuant to Section 2.1(b) of this Agreement and (b) aware of the confidentiality provisions of this Section 7.13 and is subject to an agreement with the transferor containing provisions substantially similar thereto and that states that the Fund is an express third party beneficiary thereof, and (x) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially similar to those of this Section 7.13 and with the prior written consent of the other party to this Agreement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to any actual or prospective counterparty in any swap or derivative transactions; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser (and its affiliates or their respective employees, representatives or agents) may only disclose Portfolio Information to its employees and agents who are subject to a duty, and/or have been directed, to keep and treat such information as confidential. In the event that Information is disclosed pursuant to any of clauses (i) through (vii) above, the party disclosing such Information shall (A) furnish only that portion of the Information which the party disclosing the Information is advised by outside legal counsel is legally required, (B) inform the recipient of the Information that the Information is confidential, (C) make commercially reasonable efforts to encourage the recipient of the Information to maintain the confidential and proprietary nature of the Information, and (D) conspicuously and clearly mark all of the Information as confidential before disclosing the Information. For the avoidance of doubt, Information disclosed to the Purchaser as a Holder or Designated Owner on a confidential basis in the offering documents relating to the RVMTP Shares or pursuant to the Related Documents is subject to the obligations of confidentiality set out in the preceding paragraph except to the extent otherwise provided above in this paragraph. For the avoidance of doubt, references in this Section 7.13 to “regulatory agency,” “regulatory authorities,” “government agency” and “law or regulation” shall be deemed to include the Internal Revenue Service and state taxation authorities.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, permitted recipients of Information and/or Portfolio Information (and each employee, representative or other agent of such recipients) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. For this purpose, “tax structure” is limited to any facts relevant to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the transaction and does not include information relating to the specific identity of the parties.

In case any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby so long as the intent of the parties to this Agreement shall be preserved.

For so long as none of the RVMTP Shares have been registered under the Securities Act, without the affirmative vote or consent of the Majority Participants, neither the Fund nor the Board of Trustees will take or authorize the taking of any of the actions set forth under clauses (a) through (e) of this Section 7.15:

30

(a) The termination by the Fund of any Rating Agency or the selection of any Other Rating Agency, either in replacement for a Rating Agency or as an additional Rating Agency with respect to the RVMTP Shares.

(b) The Fund issuing or permitting to exist any “senior security” (as defined in the 1940 Act as of the date hereof or, in the event such definition shall be amended, with such changes to the definition thereof as consented to by the Majority Participants) other than the RVMTP Shares issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement or indebtedness for borrowed money of the Fund, except (i) borrowings for temporary purposes in an amount not to exceed 5% of the assets of the Fund, which borrowings are repaid within sixty (60) days of the incurrence thereof; (ii) the issuance of senior securities or the incurrence of indebtedness for borrowed money, the proceeds of which will be used for the exchange, retirement, redemption or repurchase of the RVMTP Shares and costs incurred in connection therewith; (iii) the Fund’s previously issued and outstanding Auction Preferred Shares, if any, not purchased pursuant to the Tender Offer; (iv) the issuance of senior securities in the form of Preferred Shares that are pari passu to the RVMTP Shares (including, but not limited to, any additional Series of RVMTP Shares), provided that (x) any such senior securities be issued in a separate series from any series of RVMTP Shares held by the Purchaser, (y) an Increased Rate Period is not in effect at the time of the issuance of such senior securities, and, (z) for the avoidance of doubt, the Fund will remain in compliance with all applicable Effective Leverage Ratio and 1940 Act Asset Coverage requirements upon and following the issuance of any such senior securities; and (v) as may be otherwise approved or consented to by the Majority Participants, provided that if any such “senior security” is created or incurred by the Fund it shall not require the approval of the Majority Participants if the Fund exchanges, redeems, retires or terminates such “senior security” or otherwise cures such non-compliance within ten (10) Business Days of receiving notice of the existence thereof.

(c) The Fund (i) creating or incurring or permitting to be incurred or to exist any lien on any other funds, accounts or other property held under the Declaration or the Statement, except as permitted by the Declaration or the Statement or (ii) except for any lien for the benefit of the Custodian of the Fund on the assets of the Fund held by such Custodian, or any lien arising by operation of law, pledging any portfolio security to secure any senior securities or other liabilities to be incurred by the Fund (including under any tender option bond trust (or similar vehicle) of which the residual floating rate trust certificates will be owned by the Fund) unless the securities pledged pursuant to all such pledge or other security arrangements are valued for purposes of such security arrangements in an aggregate amount not less than 70% of their aggregate Market Value for purposes of determining the value of the collateral required to be posted or otherwise provided under all such security arrangements; provided, that the required collateral value under such security arrangements shall not exceed the Market Value of the exposure of each secured party to the credit of the Fund; and provided further, that it shall not require the approval of the Majority Participants if any pledge or security interest in violation of the preceding sentence is created or incurred by the Fund and the Fund cures such violation within ten (10) Business Days of receiving notice of the existence thereof.

(d) Approval of any amendment, alteration or repeal of any provision of the Declaration or the Statement, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, that would affect any preference, right or power of the RVMTP Shares or the Holders thereof, provided, however, that (i) a change in the capitalization of the Fund in accordance with Section 2.9 of the Statement shall not be considered to affect the rights and preferences of the RVMTP Shares, and (ii) a division of a VMTP Share shall be deemed to affect such preferences, rights or powers only if the terms of such division materially and adversely affect the Holders of the RVMTP Shares. For purposes of the foregoing, no matter shall be deemed to affect any preference, right or power of a VMTP Share of any Series or the Holder thereof unless such matter (A) alters or abolishes any preferential right of such VMTP Share, or (B) creates, alters or abolishes any right in respect of redemption of such VMTP Share (other than solely as a result of a division of a VMTP Share).

31

(e) Approval of any action to be taken pursuant to Sections 2.6(g) and 2.16 of the Statement (other than the issuance of additional series of Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred or other Preferred Shares, the proceeds of which will be used for the exchange, retirement, redemption or repurchase of the RVMTP Shares or the APS and, in each case, the costs incurred in connection therewith).

In addition, if the Board of Trustees shall designate a replacement to the S&P Municipal Bond 7 Day High Grade Rate Index pursuant to the definition of SIFMA Municipal Swap Index contained in the Statement, the Fund shall notify the Holders of the RVMTP Shares within five (5) Business Days of such designation, and if within thirty (30) days of such notice the Majority Participants shall have objected in writing to the designated replacement, the Board of Trustees shall designate a replacement to such index as agreed to between the Fund and the Majority Participants. In such event, the replacement index initially approved by the Board of Trustees shall be the index in effect for purposes of the Statement until a new index has been approved by the Fund and the Majority Participants.

This Agreement is executed by or on behalf of the Board of Trustees of the Fund solely in their capacity as such trustees and shall not constitute their personal obligation either jointly or severally in their individual capacities. In accordance with the Declaration, no trustee, shareholder, officer, employee or agent of the Fund shall be held to any personal liability, nor shall resort be had to their private property for the satisfaction of any obligation or claim or otherwise under this Agreement, and the Fund shall be solely liable therefor and all parties hereto shall look solely to the Fund’s property for the payment of any claim, or the performance of any obligation, hereunder.

ELIGIBLE ASSETS

On the Effective Date and at all times thereafter:

1. “Eligible Assets” are hereby defined to consist only of the following as of the time of investment:

i. “Municipal securities,” defined as obligations of a State, the District of Columbia, a U.S. territory, or a political subdivision thereof and including general obligations, limited obligation bonds, revenue bonds, and obligations that satisfy the requirements of section 142(b)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 issued by or on behalf of any State, the District of Columbia, any U.S. territory or any political subdivision thereof, including any municipal corporate instrumentality of 1 or more States, or any public agency or authority of any State, the District of Columbia, any U.S. territory or any political subdivision thereof, including obligations of any of the foregoing types related to financing a 501(c)(3) organization. For the purposes of the foregoing, “municipal securities” may include “municipal securities” acquired via origination or acquisition by the Fund, loan assignments, loan participations or similar interests that may not be considered “securities” as defined under the Securities Act (such securities, “Municipal Loan Investments”), provided that the Fund will not invest more than 15% of the Fund’s total assets in Municipal Loan Investments (measured at the time of investment). The purchase of any municipal security will be based upon the Investment Manager’s assessment of an asset’s relative value in terms of current yield, price, credit quality, and future prospects; and the Investment Manager will monitor the creditworthiness of the Fund’s portfolio investments and analyze economic, political and demographic trends affecting the markets for such assets. Eligible Assets shall include any municipal securities that at the time of purchase are paying scheduled principal and interest or if at the time of purchase are in payment default, then in the sole judgment of the Investment Manager are expected to produce payments (i) of principal and interest whose present value exceeds the purchase price or (ii) equal to the amount of interest and principal required to be paid on any such securities by the terms thereof.

ii. Debt obligations of the United States.

iii. Debt obligations issued, insured, or guaranteed by a department or an agency of the U.S. Government, if the obligation, insurance, or guarantee commits the full faith and credit of the United States for the repayment of the obligation.

iv. Debt obligations of the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority guaranteed by the Secretary of Transportation under Section 9 of the National Capital Transportation Act of 1969.

v. Debt obligations of the Federal Home Loan Banks.

viii. Debt obligations of any agency named in 12 U.S.C. § 24(Seventh) as eligible to issue obligations that a national bank may underwrite, deal in, purchase and sell for the bank’s own account, including qualified Canadian government obligations.

ix. Debt obligations of issuers other than those specified in (i) through (viii) above that are not “distressed or in default” and that are “marketable.” For these purposes, an obligation:

(aa) is “marketable” if:

x. Other assets that are not described in (i) through (ix) above, if the Investment Manager provides written notice to the Purchaser indicating the Fund’s intent to invest in such asset and describing such asset in reasonable detail at least three Business Days prior to such investment and the Purchaser affirmatively approves such investment. The Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to the Investment Manager request within such three Business Day period.

Certificates or other securities evidencing ownership interests in a municipal bond trust structure (generally referred to as a tender option bond structure) that invests in (a) debt obligations of the types described in (i) above or (b) depository receipts reflecting ownership interests in accounts holding debt obligations of the types described in (i) above.

ii. Cash.
