AVK | Advent Claymore Convertible Securities and Income Fund

Notes to Financial Statements | October 31, 2006

Note 1 – Organization:

Advent Claymore Convertible Securities and Income Fund (the “Fund”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on February 19, 2003. The Fund is registered as a diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Note 2 – Accounting Policies:

The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund.

(a) Valuation of Investments

Equity securities listed on an exchange are valued at the last reported sale price on the primary exchange on which they are traded. Equity securities traded on an exchange for which there are no transactions on a given day are valued at the mean of the closing bid and asked prices. Securities traded on NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Equity securities not listed on a securities exchange or NASDAQ are valued at the mean of the closing bid and asked prices. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services or dealers using the mean of the closing bid and asked prices for such securities or, if such prices are not available, at prices for securities of comparable maturity, quality and type. For those securities where quotations or prices are not available, valuations are determined in accordance with procedures established in good faith by the Board of Trustees. Futures contracts are valued using the settlement price established each day on the exchange on which they are traded. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

(b) Investment Transactions and Investment Income

Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts or premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted or amortized to interest income over the lives of the respective securities using the effective interest method.

(c) Currency Translation

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the mean of the bid and asked price of respective exchange rates on the last day of the period. Purchases and sales of investments denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate on the date of the transaction.

Foreign exchange realized gain or loss resulting from the holding of a foreign currency, expiration of a currency exchange contract, difference in exchange rates between the trade date and settlement date of an investment purchased or sold, and the difference between dividends actually received compared to the amount shown in a Fund’s accounting records on the date of receipt is shown as net realized gains or losses on foreign currency transactions in the Fund’s Statement of Operations.

Foreign exchange unrealized gain or loss on assets and liabilities, other than investments, is shown as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency translation in the Fund’s Statement of Operations.

(d) Swaps

A swap is an agreement to exchange the return generated by one instrument for the return generated by another instrument. The Fund may enter into swap agreements to manage its exposure to interest rates and/or credit risk. Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Fund with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest. The swaps are valued weekly at current market value and any unrealized gain or loss is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Gain or loss is realized on the termination date of the swap and is equal to the difference between the Fund’s basis in the swap and the proceeds of the closing transaction, including any fees. During the period that the swap agreement is open, the Fund may be subject to risk from the potential inability of the couterparty to meet the terms of the agreement. The swaps involve elements of both market and credit risk in excess of the amounts reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Realized gain (loss) upon termination of swap contracts is recorded on the Statement of Operations. Fluctuations in the value of swap contracts are recorded as a component of net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of swap contracts. Net periodic payments received by the Fund are included as part of realized gains (losses) and, in the case of accruals for periodic payments, are included as part of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the Statement of Operations.

(e) Securities Lending

The Fund may lend its securities to broker-dealers and financial institutions. The loans are collateralized by cash or securities at least equal at all times to the market value of the securities loaned. The Fund may bear the risk of delay in recovery of, or loss of rights in, the securities loaned should the borrower of the securities experience financial difficulty. The Fund receives compensation for lending its securities in the form of fees or it retains a portion of interest on the investment of any cash received as collateral. The Fund also continues to receive interest and dividends on the securities loaned, and any gain or loss in the market price of the securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan will be for the account of the Fund. During the year ended October 31, 2006, the Fund maintained a securities lending agreement with Lehman Brothers acting as the counterparty. Pursuant to the lending agreement, the Fund has the right to sell the security or terminate the loan at any time upon proper notice to Lehman Brothers. The Fund does not have the right to sell or repledge the collateral received from Lehman Brothers, except in the case of default. As of October 31, 2006, the Fund loaned securities with a fair value of approximately $66,280,000 and received as collateral securities with a fair value of approximately $70,937,000.

(f) Concentration of Risk

It is the Fund’s policy to invest a significant portion of its assets in convertible securities. Although convertible securities do derive part of their value from that of the securities into which they are convertible, they are not considered derivative financial instruments. However, certain of the Fund’s investments include features which render them more sensitive to price changes in their underlying securities. Consequently, this exposes the Fund to greater downside risk than traditional convertible securities, but still less than that of the underlying common stock.

(g) Distributions to Shareholders

The Fund declares and pays monthly dividends to common shareholders. These dividends consist of investment company taxable income, which generally includes qualified dividend income, ordinary income and short-term capital gains. Any net realized long-term gains are distributed annually to common shareholders.

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Note 3 – Investment Management Agreement, Servicing Agreement and Other Agreements:

Pursuant to the Investment Management Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Fund and Advent Capital Management, LLC, the Fund’s investment advisor (the “Advisor”), the Advisor is responsible for the daily management for the Fund’s portfolio of investments, which includes buying and selling securities for the Fund, as well as investment research. The Advisor will receive an annual fee from the Fund based on the average value of the Fund’s Managed Assets, which includes the amount from the issuance of the Preferred Shares. In addition, subject to the approval of the Fund’s Board of Trustees, a pro rata portion of the salaries, bonuses, health insurance, retirement benefits and similar employment costs for the time spent on Fund operations (other than the provision of services required under the Agreement) of all personnel employed by the Advisor who devote substantial time to Fund operations may be reimbursed by the Fund to the Advisor. For the year ended October 31, 2006, the Advisor was not reimbursed by the Fund. The annual fee will be determined as follows:

(a)

If the average value of the Fund’s Managed Assets (calculated monthly) is greater than $250 million, the fee will be a maximum amount equal to 0.54% of the average value of the Fund’s Managed Assets. In addition, the Advisor has agreed to waive receipt of a portion of the management fee or other expenses of the Fund in the amount of 0.115% of the average value of the Managed Assets for the first five years of the Fund’s operations and for a declining amount for an additional three years.

(b)

If the average value of the Fund’s Managed Assets (calculated monthly) is $250 million or less, the fee will be a maximum amount equal to 0.55% of the average value of the Fund’s Managed Assets. In addition, the Advisor has agreed to waive receipt of a portion of the management fee or other expenses of the Fund in the amount of 0.025% of the average value of the Managed Assets for the first five years of the Fund’s operations, after which the Advisor anticipates that it will not waive any portion of the management fee.

Pursuant to a Servicing Agreement between the Fund and Claymore Securities, Inc., the Fund’s servicing agent (the “Servicing Agent”), the Servicing Agent will act as servicing agent to the Fund. The Servicing Agent will receive an annual fee from the Fund, which will be based on the average value of the Fund’s Managed Assets. The fee will be determined as follows:

(a)

If the average value of the Fund’s Managed Assets (calculated monthly) is greater than $250 million, the fee will be a maximum amount equal to 0.21% of the average value of the Fund’s Managed Assets. In addition, the Servicing Agent has agreed to waive receipt of a portion of the servicing fee of the Fund in the amount of 0.085% of the average value of the Managed Assets for the first five years of the Fund’s operations and for a declining amount for an additional three years.

(b)

If the average value of the Fund’s Managed Assets (calculated monthly) is $250 million or less, the fee will be a maximum amount equal to 0.20% of the average value of the Fund’s Managed Assets. In addition, the Servicing Agent has agreed to waive receipt of a portion of the servicing fee of the Fund in the amount of 0.175% of the average value of the Managed Assets for the first five years of the Fund’s operations and for a declining amount for an additional three years.

The fee waivers of the Advisor and the Servicing Agent are contractual commitments of more than one year and are not subject to recoupment.

The Bank of New York (“BNY”) acts as the Fund’s custodian, administrator and transfer agent. As custodian, BNY is responsible for the custody of the Fund’s assets. As administrator, BNY is responsible for maintaining the books and records of the Fund’s securities and cash. As transfer agent, BNY is responsible for performing transfer agency services for the Fund.

Certain officers and trustees of the Fund are also officers and directors of the Advisor or Servicing Agent. The Fund does not compensate its officers or trustees who are officers of the aforementioned firms.

Note 4 – Federal Income Taxes:

The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for U.S. federal income taxes is required. In addition, by distributing substantially all of its ordinary income and long-term capital gains, if any, during each calendar year, the Fund intends not to be subject to U.S. federal excise tax.

In order to present paid-in capital in excess of par and accumulated net realized gains or losses on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities that more closely represent their tax character, certain adjustments have been made to undistributed net investment income and accumulated net realized gains or losses on investments. For the year ended October 31, 2006, the adjustments were to decrease accumulated net realized gain on investments by $15,033,701 and increase undistributed net investment income by $15,033,701 due to the difference in the treatment for book and tax purposes of certain investments.

At October 31, 2006, the cost and related gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments for tax purposes, excluding swap agreements are as follows:


Cost of Investments for Tax Purposes	Gross Tax Unrealized Appreciation			Gross Tax Unrealized Depreciation			Net Tax Unrealized Appreciation on Investments
$ 835,784,201	$	61,414,620		$	(4,372,399	)	$	57,042,221
	Net Tax Unrealized Depreciation on Derivatives and Foreign Currency			Undistributed Ordinary Income/ (Accumulated Ordinary Loss)			Undistributed Long-Term Gains/ (Accumulated Capital Loss)
	$	(207,335	)	$	1,996,299		$	14,390,635

The differences between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) is attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and additional income accrued for tax purposes on certain convertible preferred stock.

For the years ended October 31, 2006 and October 31, 2005, the tax character of distributions paid, as reflected in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets, of $73,158,804 and $66,417,008, respectively, was ordinary income.

For federal income tax purposes, as of October 31, 2006, the Fund has no capital loss carry-forward. All prior capital loss carryforward was utilized during the course of the year ended October 31, 2006.

Note 5 – Investments in Securities:

For the year ended October 31, 2006, purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term securities, were $696,300,490 and $730,924,830, respectively.

The Fund entered into interest rate swap agreements during the year ended October 31, 2006 as a hedge against rising short-term interest rates, which impact the rates the Fund pays on its Auction Preferred Shares (“Preferred Shares”). As of October 31, 2006, the Fund


12 \| Annual Report \| October 31, 2006

AVK | Advent Claymore Convertible Securities and Income Fund | Notes to Financial Statements continued

has swaps with a total notional value of $50,000,000 outstanding, which represents 18% of the preferred shares. Details of the swap agreements outstanding as of October 31, 2006 were as follows:


Counterparty	Termination Date	Notional Amount (000)		Fixed Rate		Floating Rate	Unrealized Depreciation
JP Morgan Chase & Co.	01/25/2007	$	50,000	3.54	%	3 Month LIBOR	$	(195,449	)

For each swap noted, the Fund pays a fixed rate and receives a floating rate. The market value of the swaps outstanding reflects the current receivable and payable for the floating rate and fixed rate, which may have different payment dates.

Note 6 – Capital:

Common Shares

The Fund has an unlimited amount of common shares, $0.001 par value, authorized and 23,390,204 issued and outstanding. In connection with the Fund’s dividend reinvestment plan, the Fund issued 37,630 shares and zero shares during the years ended October 31, 2006 and October 31, 2005, respectively. At October 31, 2006, Advent Capital Management, LLC, the Fund’s investment advisor, owned 5,646 shares of the Fund.

Preferred Shares

On June 19, 2003, the Fund’s Board of Trustees authorized the issuance of Preferred Shares, as part of the Fund’s leverage strategy. Preferred Shares issued by the Fund have seniority over the common shares.

On July 24, 2003, the Fund issued 2,150 shares of Preferred Shares Series M7, 2,150 shares of Preferred Shares Series T28, 2,150 shares of Preferred Shares Series W7 and 2,150 shares of Preferred Shares Series TH28 each with a liquidation value of $25,000 per share plus accrued dividends. In addition, on March 16, 2004, the Fund issued 1,200 shares of Preferred Shares Series F7 and 1,200 shares of Preferred Shares Series W28 each with a liquidation value of $25,000 per share plus accrued dividends.

Dividends are accumulated daily at a rate set through an auction process. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, are made annually.

For the year ended October 31, 2006, the annualized dividend rates range from:


Series	High		Low		At October 31, 2006
Series M7	5.21	%	3.84	%	5.10	%
Series T28	5.30	%	3.94	%	5.30	%
Series W7	5.26	%	3.70	%	5.10	%
Series W28	5.25	%	3.85	%	5.20	%
Series TH28	5.35	%	3.84	%	5.28	%
Series F7	5.15	%	3.79	%	4.92	%

The Fund is subject to certain limitations and restrictions while Preferred Shares are outstanding. Failure to comply with these limitations and restrictions could preclude the Fund from declaring any dividends or distributions to common shareholders or repurchasing common shares and/or could trigger the mandatory redemption of Preferred Shares at their liquidation value.

Preferred Shares, which are entitled to one vote per share, generally vote with the common stock but vote separately as a class to elect two Trustees and on any matters affecting the rights of the Preferred Shares.

Note 7 – Indemnifications:

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

Note 8 – Subsequent Event:

Subsequent to October 31, 2006, the Fund declared on November 1 and December 1, monthly dividends to common shareholders of $0.1718 per common share. These dividends are payable on November 30 and December 29 to shareholders of record on November 15 and December 15, respectively.

Note 9 – New Accounting Pronouncements:

On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of FIN 48 and its impact in the financial statements has not yet been determined.

On September 15, 2006, the FASB released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”) which provides enhanced guidance for measuring fair value. The standard requires companies to provide expanded information about the assets and liabilities measured at fair value and the potential effect of these fair valuations on an entity’s financial performance. The standard does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances, but provides clarification on acceptable fair valuation methods and applications. Adoption of FAS 157 is required for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of FAS 157 and its impact in the financial statements has not yet been determined.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of

Advent Claymore Convertible Securities and Income Fund

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets applicable to common shareholders and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Advent Claymore Convertible Securities and Income Fund (the “Fund”) at October 31, 2006, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets applicable to common shareholders for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended and for the period February 19, 2003 (commencement of operations) through October 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 2006 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan | (unaudited)

Unless the registered owner of common shares elects to receive cash by contacting the Plan Administrator, all dividends declared on common shares of the Fund will be automatically reinvested by the Bank of New York (the “Plan Administrator”), Administrator for shareholders in the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”), in additional common shares of the Fund. Participation in the Plan is completely voluntary and may be terminated or resumed at any time without penalty by notice if received and processed by the Plan Administrator prior to the dividend record date; otherwise such termination or resumption will be effective with respect to any subsequently declared dividend or other distribution. Some brokers may automatically elect to receive cash on your behalf and may re-invest that cash in additional common shares of the Fund for you. If you wish for all dividends declared on your common shares of the Fund to be automatically reinvested pursuant to the Plan, please contact your broker.

The Plan Administrator will open an account for each common shareholder under the Plan in the same name in which such common shareholder’s common shares are registered. Whenever the Fund declares a dividend or other distribution (together, a “Dividend”) payable in cash, non-participants in the Plan will receive cash and participants in the Plan will receive the equivalent in common shares. The common shares will be acquired by the Plan Administrator for the participants’ accounts, depending upon the circumstances described below, either (i) through receipt of additional unissued but authorized common shares from the Fund (“Newly Issued Common Shares”) or (ii) by purchase of outstanding common shares on the open market (“Open-Market Purchases”) on the New York Stock Exchange or elsewhere. If, on the payment date for any Dividend, the closing market price plus estimated brokerage commission per common share is equal to or greater than the net asset value per common share, the Plan Administrator will invest the Dividend amount in Newly Issued Common Shares on behalf of the participants. The number of Newly Issued Common Shares to be credited to each participant’s account will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the Dividend by the net asset value per common share on the payment date; provided that, if the net asset value is less than or equal to 95% of the closing market value on the payment date, the dollar amount of the Dividend will be divided by 95% of the closing market price per common share on the payment date. If, on the payment date for any Dividend, the net asset value per common share is greater than the closing market value plus estimated brokerage commission, the Plan Administrator will invest the Dividend amount in common shares acquired on behalf of the participants in Open-Market Purchases.

If, before the Plan Administrator has completed its Open-Market Purchases, the market price per common share exceeds the net asset value per common share, the average per common share purchase price paid by the Plan Administrator may exceed the net asset value of the common shares, resulting in the acquisition of fewer common shares than if the Dividend had been paid in Newly Issued Common Shares on the Dividend payment date. Because of the foregoing difficulty with respect to Open-Market Purchases, the Plan provides that if the Plan Administrator is unable to invest the full Dividend amount in Open-Market Purchases during the purchase period or if the market discount shifts to a market premium during the purchase period, the Plan Administrator may cease making Open-Market Purchases and may invest the uninvested portion of the Dividend amount in Newly Issued Common Shares at net asset value per common share at the close of business on the Last Purchase Date provided that, if the net asset value is less than or equal to 95% of the then current market price per common share; the dollar amount of the Dividend will be divided by 95% of the market price on the payment date.

The Plan Administrator maintains all shareholders’ accounts in the Plan and furnishes written confirmation of all transactions in the accounts, including information needed by shareholders for tax records. Common shares in the account of each Plan participant will be held by the Plan Administrator on behalf of the Plan participant, and each shareholder proxy will include those shares purchased or received pursuant to the Plan. The Plan Administrator will forward all proxy solicitation materials to participants and vote proxies for shares held under the Plan in accordance with the instruction of the participants.

There will be no brokerage charges with respect to common shares issued directly by the Fund. However, each participant will pay a pro rata share of brokerage commission incurred in connection with Open-Market Purchases. The automatic reinvestment of Dividends will not relieve participants of any Federal, state or local income tax that may be payable (or required to be withheld) on such Dividends.

The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan. There is no direct service charge to participants with regard to purchases in the Plan; however, the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants.

All correspondence or questions concerning the Plan should be directed to the Plan Administrator, The Bank of New York, Attention: Stock Transfer Department, 101 Barclay 11W, New York, NY 10286, Phone Number: (866) 488-3559.

ANNEX A

AUDIT COMMITTEE PRE-APPROVAL POLICY

ADVENT CLAYMORE CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES AND INCOME FUND

AS ADOPTED BY THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

JUNE 2003

Statement of Principles

The Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Advent Claymore Convertible Securities and Income Fund (the “Trust,”) is required to pre-approve all Covered Services (as defined in the Audit Committee Charter) in order to assure that the provision of the Covered Services does not impair the auditors’ independence. Unless a type of service to be provided by the Independent Auditor (as defined in the Audit Committee Charter) is pre-approved in accordance with the terms of this Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy (the “Policy”), it will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval authority has been delegated.

This Policy and the appendices to this Policy describe the Audit, Audit-Related, Tax and All Other services that are Covered Services and that have been pre-approved under this Policy. The appendices hereto sometimes are referred to herein as the “Service Pre-Approval Documents”. The term of any such pre-approval is 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Audit Committee specifically provides for a different period. At its June meeting of each calendar year, the Audit Committee will review and re-approve this Policy and approve or re-approve the Service Pre-Approval Documents for that year, together with any changes deemed necessary or desirable by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee may, from time to time, modify the nature of the services pre-approved, the aggregate level of fees pre-approved or both. The Audit Committee hereby directs that each version of this Policy and the Service Pre-Approval Documents approved, re-approved or amended from time to time be maintained with the books and records of the Trust.

Delegation

In the intervals between the scheduled meetings of the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee delegates pre-approval authority under this Policy to the Chairman of the Audit Committee (the “Chairman”). The Chairman shall report any pre-approval decisions under this Policy to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. At each scheduled meeting, the Audit Committee will review with the Independent Auditor the Covered Services pre-approved by the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority, if any, and the fees related thereto. Based on these reviews, the Audit Committee can modify, at its discretion, the pre-approval originally granted by the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority. This modification can be to the nature of services pre-approved, the aggregate level of fees approved, or both. The Audit Committee expects pre-approval of Covered Services by the Chairman pursuant to this delegated authority to be the exception rather than the rule and may modify or withdraw this delegated authority at any time the Audit Committee determines that it is appropriate to do so.

Pre-Approved Fee Levels

Fee levels for all Covered Services to be provided by the Independent Auditor and pre-approved under this Policy will be established annually by the Audit Committee and set forth in the Service Pre-Approval Documents. Any increase in pre-approved fee levels will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee (or the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority).

Audit Services

The terms and fees of the annual Audit services engagement for the Trust are subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will approve, if necessary, any changes in terms, conditions or fees resulting from changes in audit scope, Trust structure or other matters.

In addition to the annual Audit services engagement specifically approved by the Audit Committee, any other Audit services for the Trust not listed in the Service Pre-Approval Document for the respective period must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority).

Audit-Related Services

Audit-Related services are assurance and related services that are not required for the audit, but are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the financial statements of the Trust and, to the extent they are Covered Services, the other Covered Entities (as

defined in the Audit Committee Charter) or that are traditionally performed by the Independent Auditor. Audit-Related services that are Covered Services and are not listed in the Service Pre-Approval Document for the respective period must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority).

Tax Services

The Audit Committee believes that the Independent Auditor can provide Tax services to the Covered Entities such as tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice without impairing the auditor’s independence. However, the Audit Committee will not permit the retention of the Independent Auditor in connection with a transaction initially recommended by the Independent Auditor, the sole business purpose of which may be tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations. Tax services that are Covered Services and are not listed in the Service Pre-Approval Document for the respective period must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority).

All Other Services

All Other services that are Covered Services and are not listed in the Service Pre-Approval Document for the respective period must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority).

Procedures

Requests or applications to provide Covered Services that require approval by the Audit Committee (or the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority) must be submitted to the Audit Committee or the Chairman, as the case may be, by both the Independent Auditor and the Chief Financial Officer of the respective Covered Entity, and must include a joint statement as to whether, in their view, (a) the request or application is consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence and (b) the requested service is or is not a non-audit service prohibited by the SEC. A request or application submitted to the Chairman between scheduled meetings of the Audit Committee should include a discussion as to why approval is being sought prior to the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Audit Committee.

(ii) 100% of services described in each of Items 4(b) through (d) were approved by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(A) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

(f) The percentage of hours expended on the principal accountant’s engagement to audit the Fund’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year attributable to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees was 0%.

(g) The aggregate non-audit fees billed for the last two fiscal years by the registrant’s accountant for services rendered to the registrant, the registrant’s investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant (not including a sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) that directly related to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant are as follows:

2006: $0

2005: $0

(h) Not applicable.

Item 5.

Audit Committee of Listed Registrants.

The registrant has a separately designated standing audit committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The audit committee of the registrant is comprised of: Ronald Nyberg, Gerald L. Seizert and Michael A. Smart.
