The following constitutes Amendment No. 7 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned ("Amendment No. 7"). This Amendment No. 6 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

These Shares have been purchased with working capital (which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business) in open market purchases, except as otherwise noted.

The aggregate purchase price of the 119,635 Shares held by Mr. Karpus and the Karpus Entities is approximately $865,661, excluding brokerage commissions.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5(a)-(c) is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each Reporting Person is based upon 19,268,423 Shares outstanding, which is the total number of Shares outstanding as of December 31, 2017 as reported in the Issuer’s Certified Shareholder Report, Annual, of Registered Management Investment Companies on Form N-CSR, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 6, 2018.

The Reporting Persons, as members of a "group" for the purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, may be deemed the beneficial owner of the Shares directly owned by the other Reporting Persons. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares except to the extent of his or its pecuniary interest therein.
