HNW – Termination of Level Distribution Policy

At a regular meeting held on November 29, 2011, the Board of Trustees of HNW determined to discontinue the fund’s level distribution policy. This determination was made in consideration of a number of factors, including the current economic environment and the fund’s current income prospects. The fund’s regular distribution for December 2011 is expected to consist entirely of net investment income. The fund’s distribution policies continue to be subject to regular review by the Board of Trustees.

The funds are closed-end investment companies. Four of these funds trade on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the following symbols: MHI, MAV, PHT, and PHD. HNW trades on the NYSE Amex. Pioneer Investment Management, Inc. is each fund’s investment adviser.

Keep in mind, dividends are not guaranteed. Closed-end funds, unlike open-end funds, are not continuously offered. There is a one-time public offering and once issued, common shares of closed-end funds are bought and sold in the open market through a stock exchange and frequently trade at prices lower than their net asset value. Net Asset Value (NAV) is total assets less total liabilities divided by the number of common shares outstanding. For performance data on Pioneer's closed-end funds, please call 800-225-6292 or visit our closed-end pricing page.
