Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
 
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds
 
credit risks, etc.)
 
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Trust's own assumptions in determining fair value of investments)
 
   
Generally, equity securities are categorized as Level 1, fixed income securities and senior loans are categorized as Level 2, and securities valued using fair value methods (other than prices supplied by independent pricing services) as level 3.

(1) The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of asset backed securities interests is the projected cash balance.
      Significant increases (decreases) in this input would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement

(2) The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of senior secured floating rate loan interests is the projected cash balance.
       Significant increases (decreases) in this input would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

(3) The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of claims is the projected cash flow. Significant increases (decreases) in this input
       would result in a significantly higher (lower)

(4)The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of common stocks is the projected cash balance.  Significant increases
    (decreases) in this input would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

(5) The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of liquidating trusts is the projected cash flow.  Significant increases (decreases)
      In this input would result in a significantly higher (lower)

6) The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of warrants are the value of the company and a liquidity discount.
     Significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.
