Portfolio management review

Delaware Investments Closed-End Municipal Bond Funds

April 10, 2007

The managers of Delaware Closed-End Municipal Bond Funds provided the answers to the questions below as a review of the Funds’ activities for the fiscal year that ended March 31, 2007. Please see page 6 to learn more about the portfolio managers.

Q: What was the investment environment like for municipal bond funds during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007?

A: Based on changing projections for inflation during the year, the U.S. Federal Reserve’s direction on monetary policy remained a topic of speculation and drove market volatility. Overall, rates fell during the year, primarily during the third and fourth quarters of calendar year 2006. The closely watched 10-year Treasury yield opened at a 4.86% and finished the fiscal year at a 4.65% (source: Municipal Market Data).

In the spring of 2006, economic reports showed strong growth for the first calendar quarter of 2006. Prices of oil and other commodities also rose in the spring, which led to inflationary pressure and uncertainty among investors about the timing of a Fed change in monetary policy. This helped push bond yields higher across all maturities and spurred an equity market pullback in May and June.

As the summer of 2006 progressed, inflation concerns began to cool because of weaker housing data and a steady drop in oil prices. Yields generally fell through the summer months after peaking on June 28, 2006 (source: Bloomberg). A broad-based bond rally that lasted into December seemed to be a result of investors having largely concluded that the Fed was finished boosting short-term interest rates after two years of restrictive policy measures.

During that rally, municipals performed well compared to U.S. Treasury bonds. We continued to feel the effect of nontraditional buyers in the municipal bond marketplace. In the past, demand for municipal bonds has traditionally been generated by individuals who are attracted to their tax-advantaged status. Today, analyzing the market entails an added layer of complexity, because hedge funds, banks, and corporations are entering the municipal bond market for other benefits. As an example, they might employ trading strategies aimed at capitalizing on the yield difference (known as a spread) between long and short bond yields.

In part because of an active fourth quarter, $383 billion of bonds were issued nationally for calendar year 2006. The total was just 6.1% lower than the record set in 2005 (source: Bond Buyer). The increased demand from nontraditional buyers helped to support prices in the market despite the high rate of new issuance. In the first quarter of 2007, the active pace of issuance continued, with $104 billion hitting the market, a total that beat the pace of issuance in the same period a year ago by 49%.

Q: What factors influenced performance in the Funds?

A: During a strong bond market rally, like the one that took place last fall, municipal bond prices tend to lag behind those of Treasury securities. Due to this fact, combined with a heavy supply of new municipal bonds entering the market at that time, we might reasonably have expected municipal bond prices to trail Treasuries by a considerable margin. However, the market remained stronger than taxable bonds through fiscal year-end. Demand, traditional and nontraditional, remained exceptionally high and the new issuance was scooped up by eager investors.

Demand also drove yields lower (and prices higher) for long maturity bonds, shrinking the yield spread between short and long-maturities. During the fiscal year, the spread between 2- and 30-year maturities narrowed by nearly a half percentage point.

During the market rally, we found what we believed to be good long-term opportunities, based on the attractiveness of the way certain bonds were structured. In the Funds without an insured mandate, our focus early in the year was on identifying value in the low and middle portion of the investment grade market segment — specifically, bonds rated BBB and A by Standard & Poor’s (S&P).


The views expressed are current as of the date of this report and are subject to change.

Arizona Municipal Income Fund

Q: What conditions prevailed in the Arizona debt market?

A: Arizona is one of the fastest growing, most dynamic economies in the nation. The state has a competitive business climate and tax structure, a skilled, knowledge-based workforce, and both cultural and scenic tourism resources. Job growth in Arizona continued to accelerate in 2006 and ranked second nationwide. For fiscal year 2006, the state’s non-farm payroll increased 4.8% (source: Nelson A. Rockefeller State Revenue Report #65). As of March 2007, the state’s unemployment rate of 3.9% was below the national unemployment rate of 4.4%, according to U.S. Department of Labor data.

For fiscal 2006, tax revenues increased 19.10%, led by very strong personal and sales tax (source: Nelson A. Rockefeller State Revenue Report #65). According to a recent Moody’s report, the state’s General Fund ended fiscal 2006 at $1.7 billion. The Arizona Budget Stabilization Fund totaled $651.0 million as of June 30, 2006, representing a $490.1 million increase over 2005. Arizona’s fiscal year 2007 General Fund budget currently totals $10.09 billion and increases base spending by about 7.70%. The three main spending priorities include public safety, education, and healthcare.

Q: How did the Arizona Municipal Income Fund perform versus its benchmark and peer group?

A: The Fund returned +5.26% at net asset value (share returns include distributions reinvested). The median return of the Fund’s peer group, the Lipper Other States Municipal Debt category, was +4.65% during the same period. As a broader benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Municipal Index returned +5.43% over the 12-month period (sources: Lipper, Lehman Brothers).

We remind shareholders that substantially all dividends in the Fund are free from federal income tax but may be subject to the alternative minimum tax, which applies to certain taxpayers. Capital gains, if any, are taxable. Additionally, past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Investors should consult with a tax professional regarding their specific solutions.

Q: What strategies affected Fund performance?

A: Bonds issued to finance hospitals and other healthcare projects outperformed other portions of the municipal bond market during the fiscal year. The healthcare industry currently appears stable and is growing based on the current and future needs of aging baby boomers. Healthcare bonds tend to be among the lower-rated investment grade issues (A or BBB, rated by S&P). An example of a strong performer in the Fund was a bond issued by University of Arizona Medical Center, rated Baa1 by Moody’s and BBB+ by S&P, which is due to mature in 2033.

On the downside, bonds that were pre-refunded were among the underperformers during the one-year period. An example in the Fund was an AAA-rated Arizona School Facilities Board Revenue bond paying 5.00% interest and scheduled for redemption in 2011. Many pre-refunded bonds in the Fund currently show fiscal-period total returns that are lower compared to other bonds in the Fund during market rallies, but they have the potential to provide attractive income payments. Traditionally, we have opted to hold these bonds, without realizing a taxable gain. A downside of this strategy is that the short call feature, or the ability of the issuer to redeem the bond early, restricts price appreciation. During periods of falling interest rates, this may constrain the bond’s total return.

In comparing returns to the benchmark index, one limiting factor for the Fund was that it did not utilize the noninvestment grade segment of the market. This rating category outperformed the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index, posting a +9.84% return for the period. At its February 2007 meeting, the Fund’s board of directors approved a change that will allow us to invest up to 20% of the Fund’s net assets in municipal bonds that are rated lower than Ba1 by Moody’s or BB+ by S&P, or that are unrated but judged to be of comparable quality.

Investment in municipal bonds of below investment grade quality involves special risks as compared with investment in higher grade municipal bonds. These risks may include

greater sensitivity to a general economic downturn, greater market price volatility and less secondary market trading. Securities rated below investment grade are commonly known as “junk bonds.” Such securities are regarded, on balance, as predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s ability to pay interest and repay principal owed.

Colorado Insured Municipal Income Fund

Q: What conditions prevailed in the Colorado debt market?

A: After experiencing a sharper economic downturn than the nation in recent years, Colorado is now showing signs of recovering at a healthy pace. The state’s employment declines bottomed out in early 2004. For Colorado’s 2006 fiscal year, job growth was above national levels of 1.4%, with the state’s non-farm payroll increasing 2.1% (source: Nelson A. Rockefeller State Revenue Report #65). This is largely attributable to growth in construction, healthcare, and education. As of March 2007, the state’s unemployment rate of 3.8% was below the national unemployment rate of 4.4%, according to U.S. Department of Labor data.

For fiscal year 2006, Colorado tax revenues increased 11.6% (source: Nelson A. Rockefeller State Revenue Report #65). This growth is due to increases in personal income tax, sales tax, but most importantly corporate income tax. According to a recent Moody’s report, Colorado’s Required Statutory Reserve increased by $53 million to total $251.7 million in 2006. Colorado’s General Fund balance stood at $592.7 million as of June 30, 2006. Voter initiatives, such as the Tax Payer Bill of Rights, have limited Colorado’s financial flexibility.

In November 2005, Referendum C was approved by Colorado voters. This allowed the state to retain tax revenue collected in excess of the fiscal year’s budget for the following five years, estimated to be $3.7 billion. Highlights of the 2006-2007 budget include increased higher education and human services spending.

Q: How did the Fund perform versus its benchmark and peer group?

A: Colorado Insured Municipal Income Fund returned +4.35% at net asset value (share returns include distributions reinvested). The median return of the Fund’s peer group, the Lipper Other States Municipal Debt category, was +4.65% during the same period. A broader benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Municipal Index, returned +5.43% over the 12-month period (sources: Lipper, Lehman Brothers).

We remind shareholders that substantially all dividends in the Fund are free from federal income tax but may be subject to the alternative minimum tax, which applies to certain taxpayers. Capital gains, if any, are taxable. Additionally, past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Investors should consult with a tax professional regarding their specific situation.

Q: What strategies affected Fund performance?

A: We believe one of the reasons the Fund underperformed its Lipper peer group was due to the fundamental investment policy requiring the Fund to invest 80% of its assets in 100% insured or AAA-rated bonds. It should be noted that the Fund’s peer group is not strictly an insured universe. Over this 12-month period in the Lehman Municipal Bond Index, S&P AAA-rated bonds returned just +5.29%, while BBB-rated bonds returned +7.33%, and noninvestment grade bonds posted a +9.84% return (source: Lehman Brothers).

Another drag on performance for the period was the significant level of bonds in the Fund with short call dates. A call is a feature that allows the issuer to redeem the bond early. These bonds were typically purchased with 10 years or so of call protection and have since “rolled down the yield curve” as they near their call dates. They were originally purchased in favorable yield environments, earned above-market book yields, and most have experienced price appreciation. Traditionally, we have opted to hold these bonds, maintaining the high book yield and not realizing a taxable gain. A downside of this strategy is that the short call feature, or the ability of the issuer to redeem the bond early, restricts price appreciation. During periods of falling interest rates, this may constrain the bond’s total return.

Another facet of the Fund is older, pre-refunded bonds. Pre-refunded bonds are typically short in duration and

their performance will typically be close to that of bonds with short call dates. The pre-refunded portion of the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index returned just 4.40% over the fiscal year. During the last six months, we purchased some longer bonds, funding those purchases with the sale proceeds of higher-quality, shorter-duration bonds – either pre-refunded bonds or bonds with very short calls.

Florida Insured Municipal Income Fund

Q: What conditions prevailed in the Florida debt market?

A: Florida’s economy is one of the strongest in the nation. Job growth remained robust with non-farm payroll increasing 3.2% in 2006 fiscal year (source: Nelson A. Rockefeller State Revenue Report #65). High population growth has given strength to the state’s economy but has also put pressure on government services for education, corrections, transportation, and health and human services.

One area of concern for the state economy is the housing market, which is currently experiencing a significant decline. Florida housing were down 47% in the last quarter of calendar 2006, compared to the same period of 2005 (source: Moody’s). As of July 2006, the state’s unemployment rate remained very low at 3.3% compared to the national unemployment rate of 4.4%, based on U.S. Department of Labor data.

For fiscal 2006, tax revenues were up 8.4%. Sales and use tax revenues, which account for approximately 72% of all taxes, grew 9.9% (source: Nelson A. Rockefeller State Revenue Report #65).

According to a recent Moody’s report, the state’s General Fund ended fiscal 2006 at $8.0 billion. Florida’s Budget Stabilization Fund totaled $999 million at the end of fiscal 2005 and $1.1 billion at the end of fiscal 2006. The Florida intangible personal property tax, which is a duty on stocks and bonds that affects some of Florida’s wealthiest, was voted out of existence by the state legislature on April 26, 2006, with annual tax savings estimated to be $161 million for an estimated 300,000 taxpayers. According to this report, the $74 billion fiscal 2007 budget provides for $298 million in tax cuts and sets aside $6.4 billion in reserves. The state has conservatively estimated net general revenue growth of 1.6% in 2007 compared to a historical average of 9.8%.

Q: How did the Fund perform versus its benchmark and peer group?

A: The Florida Insured Municipal Income Fund returned +5.27% at net asset value (share returns include distributions reinvested). The median return of the Fund’s peer group, the Lipper Florida Closed-End Municipal Debt Funds, was +5.89% during the same period. As a broader benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Municipal Index returned +5.43% over the 12-month period (sources: Lipper, Lehman Brothers).

We remind shareholders that substantially all dividends in the Fund are free from federal income tax but may be subject to the alternative minimum tax, which applies to certain taxpayers. Capital gains, if any, are taxable. Additionally, past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Investors should consult with a tax professional regarding their specific situations.

Q: What strategies affected Fund performance?

A: We believe one of the reasons that the Fund underperformed its Lipper peer group is due to the fundamental investment policy requiring the Fund to invest 80% of its assets in 100% insured or S&P AAA-rated bonds. It should be noted that the Fund’s peer group is not strictly an insured universe. Over this 12-month period in the Lehman Municipal Bond Index, AAA-rated bonds returned just +5.29%, while BBB-rated bonds returned +7.33%, and noninvestment grade bonds posted a +9.84% return (source: Lehman Brothers).

One of the other drags on performance was the significant level of bonds in the Fund with short call dates. A call is a feature that allows the issuer to redeem a bond early. These bonds were typically purchased with 10 years or so of call protection and have since “rolled down the yield curve” as they near their call dates.

environments, earned above-market book yields, and most have experienced price appreciation. Traditionally, we have opted to hold these bonds, maintaining the high book yield and not realizing a taxable gain. A downside of this strategy is that the short call feature, or the ability of the issuer to redeem the bond early, restricts price appreciation. During periods of falling interest rates, this may constrain the bond’s total return.

Minnesota Municipal Income Fund II

Q: What conditions prevailed in the Minnesota debt market?

A: Minnesota has recovered from the 2001 recession and the resulting damage to the state’s finances. The state has steady demographic trends, high personal income levels, high employment diversity and performance, and low unemployment (source: Moody’s). In fiscal 2006, the state’s non-farm payroll increased 1.9% compared to national growth of 1.4% (source: Nelson A. Rockefeller State Revenue Report #65). As of March 2007, the state’s unemployment rate was slightly high at 4.5% compared to the national unemployment rate of 4.4% (source: U.S. Department of Labor).

For fiscal 2006, tax revenues were up 8.8% (source: Nelson A. Rockefeller State Revenue Report #65). According to a recent Moody’s report, the state’s General Fund ended fiscal 2006 at $838.8 million, a $745.8 million increase over 2005. The budget reserve has climbed back to $1.1 billion, on a budgetary basis (source: Fiscal Survey of the States, December 2006). The enacted 2006-2007 Budget projects total spending to increase 8.4%. Most of the spending increases are going toward K-12 education, health and human services, and public safety. The state is paying for these increases with approximately $1 billion in new ongoing revenues, including a $0.75 per pack increase in the cigarette tax.

Q: How did the Fund perform versus its benchmark and peer group?

A: Minnesota Municipal Income Fund II returned +6.05% at net asset value (share returns include distributions reinvested). The median return of the Fund’s peer group, the Lipper Other States Municipal Debt category, was +4.65% during the same period. As a broader benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Municipal Index returned +5.43% over the 12-month period (sources: Lipper, Lehman Brothers).

We remind shareholders that substantially all dividends in the Fund are free from federal income tax but may be subject to the alternative minimum tax, which applies to certain taxpayers. Capital gains, if any, are taxable. Additionally, past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Investors should consult with a tax professional regarding their specific situation.

Q: What strategies affected Fund performance?

A: Bonds issued to finance hospitals and other healthcare projects outperformed other portions of the municipal bond market during the fiscal year. The healthcare industry currently appears stable and is growing based on the current and future needs of aging baby boomers. Healthcare bonds tend to be among the lower-rated investment grade issues (A or BBB by S&P). An example in the Fund of one of the better performers is a bond issued by the City of Duluth for the Benedictine Health System, which is rated A- by S&P and A- by Fitch, and is due to mature in 2033.

Bonds issued to finance corporate-related projects, were the top-performing sector in the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index for the period. The Fund was slightly overweight versus the benchmark in this sector. An example of a strong performer was a bond issued for an electric co-generation facility by Laurentian Energy Authority. The bond is currently rated Baa3 by Moody’s and matures in 2021.

On the downside, bonds that were pre-refunded were among the underperformers over a one-year period. An example in the Fund is an AAA-rated (by S&P) Minnesota Agriculture and Economic Development Board Revenue bond paying 5.75% interest and scheduled for redemption later in 2007.

Many pre-refunded bonds in the Fund showed fiscal year total returns for the period that were lower compared to other bonds in the Fund during market rallies, but they currently still

provide attractive income payments. Traditionally, we have opted to hold these bonds, maintaining the high book yield and not realizing a taxable gain. A downside of this strategy is that the short call dates may restrict price appreciation which, during periods of falling interest rates, constrains the bond’s total return.

Investment in municipal bonds of below investment grade quality involves special risks as compared with investment in higher grade municipal bonds. These risks may include greater sensitivity to a general economic downturn, greater market price volatility and less secondary market trading. Securities rated below investment grade are commonly known as “junk bonds.” Such securities are regarded, on balance, as predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s ability to pay interest and repay principal owed.

Notes to financial statements

Delaware Investments Closed-End Municipal Bond Funds

March 31, 2007

Delaware Investments Arizona Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (“Arizona Municipal Fund”); Delaware Investments Colorado Insured Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (“Colorado Insured Municipal Fund”) and Delaware Investments Minnesota Municipal Income Fund II, Inc. (“Minnesota Municipal Fund II”) are organized as Minnesota corporations and Delaware Investments Florida Insured Municipal Income Fund (“Florida Insured Municipal Fund”) is organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust (each referred to as a “Fund” and collectively as the “Funds”). Arizona Municipal Fund, Florida Insured Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund II are considered diversified closed-end management investment companies and Colorado Insured Municipal Fund is considered a non-diversified closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Funds’ common shares trade on the American Stock Exchange. The Funds’ preferred shares are traded privately through a remarketing agent.

The investment objective of each Fund is to provide high current income exempt from federal income tax and from the personal income tax of its state, if any, consistent with the preservation of capital. Each Fund will seek to achieve its investment objective by investing substantially all of its net assets in investment grade, tax-exempt municipal obligations of its respective state.

1. Significant Accounting Policies

The following accounting policies are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and are consistently followed by the Funds.

Security Valuation — Long-term debt securities are valued by an independent pricing service and such prices are believed to reflect the fair value of such securities. Short-term debt securities having less than 60 days to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Other securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of each Fund’s Board of Directors/Trustees. In determining whether market quotations are readily available or fair valuation will be used, various factors will be taken into consideration, such as market closures, aftermarket trading or significant events after local market trading (e.g., government actions or pronouncements, trading volume or volatility on markets, exchanges among dealers, or news events).

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (Statement 157). Statement 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework, and expands disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. Statement 157 is intended to increase consistency and comparability among fair value estimates used in financial reporting. Statement 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Management does not expect the adoption of Statement 157 to have an impact on the amounts reported in the financial statements.

Federal Income Taxes — Each Fund intends to continue to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company and make the requisite distributions to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the financial statements.

On July 13, 2006, the 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 Funds’ 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 a 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. Recent SEC guidance allows implementing FIN 48 in each Fund’s net asset value calculations as late as each Fund’s last net asset value calculation in the first required financial statement reporting period. As a result, the Funds will incorporate FIN 48 in its semiannual report on September 30, 2007. Although each Fund’s tax positions are currently being evaluated, management does not expect the adoption of FIN 48 to have a material impact on the Funds’ financial statements.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Interest and Related Expenses — Interest and related expenses include, but are not limited to, interest expense, remarketing fees, liquidity fees, and trustees’ fees from the Minnesota Municipal Fund II’s participation in inverse floater programs where the Fund has transferred its own bonds to a trust that issues floating rate securities with an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal of the transferred bonds. In consideration of the conveyance of the bond, the Fund receives the inverse floating rate securities and cash from the trust. As a result of certain rights retained by the Fund, the transfer of the bond is not considered a sale, but rather a form of financing for accounting purposes whereby the cash received is recorded as a liability and interest expense is recorded based on the interest rate of the floating rate securities. Remarketing fees, liquidity fees, and trustees’ fees expenses are recorded on the accrual basis.

For the year ended March 31, 2007, the Minnesota Municipal Fund II had an average daily liability from the participation in inverse floater programs of $8,832,630 and recorded interest expense at an average rate of 3.80%

1. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Other — Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to that Fund. Other expenses common to various funds within the Delaware Investments ® Family of Funds are generally allocated amongst such funds on the basis of average net assets. Management fees and some other expenses are paid monthly. Security transactions are recorded on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date) for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in calculating realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Discounts and premiums are amortized to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Each Fund declares and pays dividends from net investment income monthly and distributions from net realized gain on investments, if any, annually. In addition, in order to satisfy certain distribution requirements of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the Funds may declare special year-end dividend and capital gains distributions during November or December to shareholders of record on a date in such month. Such distributions, if received by shareholders by January 31, are deemed to have been paid by the Funds and received by shareholders on the earlier of the date paid or December 31 of the prior year.

The Funds receive earnings credits from their custodian when positive cash balances are maintained, which are used to offset custody fees. The expense paid under this arrangement is included in custodian fees and on the Statements of Operations with the corresponding expense offset shown as “expense paid indirectly.”

2. Investment Management, Administration Agreements and Other Transactions with Affiliates

In accordance with the terms of its respective investment management agreement, each Fund pays Delaware Management Company (DMC), a series of Delaware Management Business Trust and the investment manager, an annual fee of 0.40% which is calculated daily based on the average weekly net assets of each Fund, excluding the liquidation value of the preferred stock.

Delaware Service Company, Inc. (DSC), an affiliate of DMC, provides accounting and administration services. Each Fund pays DSC a monthly fee computed at the annual rate of 0.04% of the Funds’ average daily net assets, excluding the liquidation value of preferred stock, for accounting and administration services.

At March 31, 2007, each Fund had liabilities payable to affiliates as follows:

  Arizona            Colorado Insured            Florida Insured            Minnesota 
  Municipal  Municipal  Municipal    Municipal 
  Fund    Fund  Fund  Fund II 
Investment management fee payable to DMC  $23,034  $37,815    $18,493  $89,045 
Accounting administration and other expenses payable to DSC      2,397    11,705      1,920      9,244 
Other expenses payable to DMC and affiliates*      3,623      5,397      1,661      7,179 

*DMC, as part of its administrative services, pays operating expenses on behalf of each Fund and is reimbursed on a periodic basis. Such expenses include items such as printing of shareholder reports, fees for audit, legal and tax services, stock exchange fees, custodian fees and directors/trustees’ fees.

As provided in the investment management agreement, each Fund bears the cost of certain legal and tax services, including internal legal and tax services provided to each Fund by DMC and/or its affiliates’ employees. For the year ended March 31, 2007, each Fund was charged for internal legal and tax services provided by DMC and/or its affiliates’ employees as follows:

Arizona            Colorado Insured            Florida Insured            Minnesota 
Municipal    Municipal    Municipal    Municipal 
Fund  Fund  Fund  Fund II 
$2,062  $3,448  $1,660  $8,008 

Directors’/Trustees’ fees and benefits include expenses accrued by the Funds for each Director’s/Trustee’s retainer, per meeting fees and retirement benefits. Independent Directors/Trustees with over five years of uninterrupted service were eligible to participate in a retirement plan that provided for the payment of benefits upon retirement. The amount of the retirement benefit was determined based on factors set forth in the plan, including the number of years of service. On November 16, 2006, the Board of Directors/Trustees unanimously voted to terminate the retirement plan. Payments equal to the net present value of the earned benefits were made in 2007 to those independent trustees so entitled. The retirement benefit payout for the Arizona Municipal Fund, Colorado Insured Municipal Fund, Florida Insured Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund II was $5,506, $9,218, $4,431 and $21,329, respectively. Certain officers of DMC and DSC are officers and/or directors/ trustees of the Funds. These officers and directors/trustees are paid no compensation by the Funds.

4. Dividend and Distribution Information

Income and long-term capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Additionally, net short-term gains on sales of investment securities are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. The tax character of dividends and distributions paid during the years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 was as follows:

5. Components of Net Assets on a Tax Basis (continued)

The differences between book basis and tax basis components of net assets are primarily attributable to tax deferral of losses on wash sales, tax treatment of market discount on debt instruments, and tax treatment of participation in inverse floater programs.

For financial reporting purposes, capital accounts are adjusted to reflect the tax character of permanent book/tax differences. Reclassifications are primarily due to tax treatment of dividends and distributions, tax treatment of market discount on certain debt instruments and tax treatment of participation in inverse floater programs. Results of operations and net assets were not affected by these reclassifications. For the year ended March 31, 2007, the Funds recorded the following reclassifications:

  Arizona                      Minnesota 
  Municipal  Municipal 
  Fund    Fund II 
Undistributed (Accumulated) net investment income (loss)  $ 13,438  $ (11,464) 
Accumulated net realized gains (losses)  (13,438)  11,464  

For federal income tax purposes, capital loss carryforwards may be carried forward and applied against future capital gains. Capital loss carryforwards remaining at March 31, 2007 will expire as follows:

  Minnesota                                 
  Municipal 
  Fund II   
2008   $175,394 
2009  175,804 
2010  8,416 
2013  9,826 
Total  $369,440 

For the year ended March, 31 2007, Arizona Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund II utilized $30,981 and $164,149, respectively, of capital loss carryforwards.

6. Capital Stock

Pursuant to their articles of incorporation, Arizona Municipal Fund, Colorado Insured Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund II each have 200 million shares of $0.01 par value common shares authorized. Florida Insured Municipal Fund has been authorized to issue an unlimited amount of $0.01 par value common shares. The Funds did not repurchase any shares under the Share Repurchase Program during the year ended March 31, 2007. Shares issuable under the Funds’ dividend reinvestment plan are purchased by the Funds’ transfer agent, Mellon Investor Services, LLC, in the open market.

For the year ended March 31, 2007, the Funds did not have any transactions in common shares.

The Funds each have one million shares of $0.01 par value preferred shares authorized, except for Florida Insured Municipal Fund, which has an unlimited amount of $0.01 par value preferred shares authorized. On May 14, 1993, Arizona Municipal Fund and Florida Insured Municipal Fund issued 500 and 400 preferred shares, respectively. Also on that date, Minnesota Municipal Fund II issued 600 Series A and 600 Series B preferred shares. On September 23, 1993, Colorado Insured Municipal Fund issued 800 preferred shares. The preferred shares of each Fund have a liquidation preference of $50,000 per share plus an amount equal to accumulated but unpaid dividends.

In connection with the reorganizations described in Note 7 on the next page, shareholders of Minnesota Municipal Income Fund II approved amendments to its charter to create two new series to absorb the preferred stock of Delaware Investments Minnesota Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (“Minnesota Municipal Fund”) and Delaware Investments Minnesota Municipal Income Fund III, Inc. (“Minnesota Municipal Fund III”). These series have identical rights and preferences (including liquidation rights) in all material respects to the preferred shares of Minnesota Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund III, and are substantially similar to the Series A and B preferred shares of Minnesota Municipal Fund II with respect to their preferences, voting powers, restrictions, limitation as to dividends, qualifications, liquidation rights, and term and conditions of redemption. Minnesota Municipal Fund II issued 400 Series C Preferred Shares to preferred shareholders of Minnesota Municipal Fund in exchange for that Fund’s preferred shares and 300 Series D Preferred Shares to preferred shareholders of Minnesota Municipal Fund III in exchange for that Fund’s preferred shares at the close of the reorganization on February 24, 2006.

32


6. Capital Stock (continued)

Dividends for the outstanding preferred shares of each Fund are cumulative at a rate established at the initial public offering and are typically reset every 28 days based on the results of an auction. Dividend rates (adjusted for any capital gain distributions) ranged during the year ended March 31, 2007 as follows:

Fund    Low                        High 
Arizona Municipal Fund   3.00%     to  4.45% 
Colorado Insured Municipal Fund   3.05%   to  4.11% 
Florida Insured Municipal Fund   3.00%   to  4.35% 
Minnesota Municipal Fund II   3.21%   to  3.95% 

Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. (formerly Salomon Smith Barney, Inc.) and Merrill Lynch Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc. (Colorado Insured Municipal Fund only), as the remarketing agents, receive an annual fee from each of the Funds of 0.25% of the average amount of preferred stock outstanding.

Under the 1940 Act, the Funds may not declare dividends or make other distributions on common shares or purchase any such shares if, at the time of the declaration, distribution or purchase, asset coverage with respect to the outstanding preferred stock is less than 200%. The preferred shares are redeemable at the option of the Funds, in whole or in part, on any dividend payment date at $50,000 per share plus any accumulated but unpaid dividends whether or not declared. The preferred shares are also subject to mandatory redemption at $50,000 per share plus any accumulated but unpaid dividends whether or not declared, if certain requirements relating to the composition of the assets and liabilities of each Fund are not satisfied. The holders of preferred shares have voting rights equal to the holders of common shares (one vote per share) and will vote together with holders of common shares as a single class. However, holders of preferred shares are also entitled to elect two of each Fund’s Directors. In addition, the 1940 Act requires that along with approval by shareholders that might otherwise be required, the approval of the holders of a majority of any outstanding preferred shares, voting separately as a class would be required to (a) adopt any plan of reorganization that would adversely affect the preferred shares, and (b) take any action requiring a vote of security holders pursuant to Section 13(a) of the 1940 Act, including, among other things, changes in each of the Fund’s subclassification as a closed-end investment company or (c) changes in their fundamental investment restrictions.

7. Fund Reorganization

At the close of business on February 24, 2006, Minnesota Municipal Income Fund II acquired substantially all of the assets of Minnesota Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund III, each pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Acquisition (the “Reorganization”). The common shareholders of Minnesota Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund III each received common shares of Minnesota Municipal Fund II equal to the aggregate net asset value of their respective shares prior to the Reorganization. The preferred shares of Minnesota Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund III received the same number of Series C and Series D preferred shares, respectively, of Minnesota Municipal Fund II as they held in their respective Funds prior to the Reorganization (see Note 6). The Reorganizations were treated as non-taxable events and, accordingly, Minnesota Municipal Fund II’s basis in the securities acquired reflected the historical cost basis as of the date of transfer. The net assets, net unrealized appreciation and accumulated net realized gain (loss) of Minnesota Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund III as of the close of business on February 24, 2006, were as follows:

          Net Unrealized           Accumulated Net
Net Assets   Appreciation   Realized Gain/Loss
Minnesota Municipal Fund   $38,077,404   $2,648,640 $ 2,145  
Minnesota Municipal Fund III    25,566,621   1,999,455 (81,744 )

The net assets of Minnesota Municipal Fund II prior to the Reorganizations were $108,531,274. The combined net assets of Minnesota Municipal Fund II after the Reorganization were $172,175,299.

Minnesota Municipal Fund II continues to trade and is listed on the American Stock Exchange. Beginning on February 27, 2006 and going forward, however, Minnesota Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund III will no longer trade or be listed on the American Stock Exchange, and their corporate existence will be liquidated and dissolved. In January 2007, shareholders of Minnesota Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund III received Form 1099-DIV that reported the amount and character of each Fund’s distributions paid in calendar year 2006.

Common and preferred shares of Minnesota Municipal Fund II issued to shareholders of Minnesota Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund III in connection with the Reorganizations were as follows:

Common            Exchange            Preferred           Exchange
Shares Issued   Ratio   Shares Issued   Ratio
Minnesota Municipal Fund  2,543,581   1.02 to 1 400   1 to 1 
Minnesota Municipal Fund III  1,709,194 1.08 to 1 300 1 to 1

Delaware Investments Closed-End Municipal Bond Funds

 

8. Inverse Floaters

The Funds may participate in inverse floater programs where a fund transfers its own bonds to a trust that issues floating rate securities and inverse floating rate securities (“inverse floaters”) with an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal of the transferred bonds. The inverse floaters received by the Funds are derivative tax-exempt obligations with floating or variable interest rates that move in the opposite direction of short-term interest rates, usually at an accelerated speed. Consequently, the market values of the inverse floaters will generally be more volatile than other tax-exempt investments. The Funds typically use inverse floaters to adjust the duration of their portfolios. Duration measures a portfolio’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates. By holding inverse floaters with a different duration than the underlying bonds that the Funds transferred to the trust, the Funds seek to adjust its portfolio’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The Funds may also invest in inverse floaters to add additional income to the Funds or to adjust the Funds’ exposure to a specific segment of the yield curve. Securities held in trust relating to inverse floater programs are identified on the Statements of Net Assets.

Previously, the Funds treated these transactions as a sale of the bonds and as a purchase of the inverse floating rate securities. Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities (FAS 140), the transfer of the bonds is not considered a sale, but rather a form of financing for accounting purposes.

9. Credit and Market Risk

The Funds use leverage in the form of preferred shares. Leveraging may result in a higher degree of volatility because each Fund’s net asset value could be more sensitive to fluctuations in short-term interest rates and changes in market value of portfolio securities attributable to the leverage.

The Funds concentrate their investments in securities issued by municipalities. The value of these investments may be adversely affected by new legislation within the states, regional or local economic conditions, and differing levels of supply and demand for municipal bonds. Many municipalities insure repayment for their obligations. Although bond insurance reduces the risk of loss due to default by an issuer, such bonds remain subject to the risk that value may fluctuate for other reasons and there is no assurance that the insurance company will meet its obligations. These securities have been identified in the Statements of Net Assets.

The Funds may invest in advanced refunded bonds, escrow secured bonds or defeased bonds. Under current federal tax laws and regulations, state and local government borrowers are permitted to refinance outstanding bonds by issuing new bonds. The issuer refinances the outstanding debt to either reduce interest costs or to remove or alter restrictive covenants imposed by the bonds being refinanced. A refunding transaction where the municipal securities are being refunded within 90 days from the issuance of the refunding issue is known as a “current refunding.” “Advance refunded bonds” are bonds in which the refunded bond issue remains outstanding for more than 90 days following the issuance of the refunding issue. In an advance refunding, the issuer will use the proceeds of a new bond issue to purchase high grade interest bearing debt securities which are then deposited in an irrevocable escrow account held by an escrow agent to secure all future payments of principal and interest and bond premium of the advance refunded bond. Bonds are “escrowed to maturity” when the proceeds of the refunding issue are deposited in an escrow account for investment sufficient to pay all of the principal and interest on the original interest payment and maturity dates. Bonds are considered “pre-refunded” when the refunding issue’s proceeds are escrowed only until a permitted call date or dates on the refunded issue with the refunded issue being redeemed at the time, including any required premium. Bonds become “defeased” when the rights and interests of the bondholders and of their lien on the pledged revenues or other security under the terms of the bond contract are substituted with an alternative source of revenues (the escrow securities) sufficient to meet payments of principal and interest to maturity or to the first call dates. Escrowed secured bonds will often receive a rating of AAA from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group, and/or Fitch Ratings due to the strong credit quality of the escrow securities and the irrevocable nature of the escrow deposit agreement.

Each Fund may invest up to 15% of its total assets in illiquid securities, which may include securities with contractual restrictions on resale, securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and other securities which may not be readily marketable. The relative illiquidity of these securities may impair each Fund from disposing of them in a timely manner and at a fair price when it is necessary or desirable to do so. While maintaining oversight, each Fund’s Board of Trustees/Directors has delegated to DMC the day-to-day functions of determining whether individual securities are liquid for purposes of each Fund’s limitation on investments in illiquid assets. At March 31, 2007, there were no Rule 144A securities and no securities have been determined to be illiquid under the Funds’ Liquidity Procedures.

10. Contractual Obligations

The Funds enter into contracts in the normal course of business that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts. Management has reviewed the Funds’ existing contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

34


11. Tax Information (Unaudited)

The information set forth below is for each Fund’s fiscal year as required by federal laws. Shareholders, however, must report distributions on a calendar year basis for income tax purposes, which may include distributions for portions of two fiscal years of a fund. Accordingly, the information needed by shareholders for income tax purposes will be sent to them in January of each year. Please consult your tax advisor for proper treatment of this information.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, each Fund designates distributions paid during the year as follows:

(A)   (B)  
Long-Term   Tax-  
Capital Gains   Exempt   Total
Distributions           Distributions           Distributions
(Tax Basis)    (Tax Basis)   (Tax Basis)
Arizona Municipal Fund   4%   96% 100% 
Colorado Insured Municipal Fund   7% 93% 100% 
Florida Insured Municipal Fund   7% 93% 100% 
Minnesota Municipal Fund II   100% 100% 
  
(A) and (B) are based on a percentage of each Fund’s total distributions.

registered public accounting firm



To the Shareholders and Board of Directors/Trustees
Delaware Investments Arizona Municipal Income Fund, Inc.
Delaware Investments Colorado Insured Municipal Income Fund, Inc.
Delaware Investments Florida Insured Municipal Income Fund
Delaware Investments Minnesota Municipal Income Fund II, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets of Delaware Investments Arizona Municipal Income Fund, Inc., Delaware Investments Colorado Insured Municipal Income Fund, Inc., Delaware Investments Florida Insured Municipal Income Fund and Delaware Investments Minnesota Municipal Income Fund II, Inc. (the “Funds”), as of March 31, 2007, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of March 31, 2007, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the respective Funds at March 31, 2007, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and their financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

*Subsequent to the mailing of the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting, Jude T. Driscoll, a Director/Trustee and one of the nominees for election to the Board of each Fund, resigned from the Board of each Fund, effective August 1, 2006. As a result, Mr. Driscoll withdrew from the election. At a regularly scheduled Board meeting on August 16, 2006, each Fund’s Nominating Committee recommended to the applicable Fund’s Board substituting Patrick P. Coyne for Mr. Driscoll as a nominee for election to the Board and each Board recommended naming Mr. Coyne as a substitute nominee for election to the Board.

38


As disclosed in the Proxy Statement, in the case of the withdrawal of a nominee for election, the power given by shareholders in the Proxy Card may be used by the persons named as proxies to vote for a substitute nominee or nominees as recommended by the existing Board. Accordingly, the proxies exercised their discretion to vote for the Mr. Coyne, the substitute nominee for election to each Board, at the Annual Meeting.

As described in a press release dated August 17, 2006, Delaware Investments Arizona Municipal Income Fund, Inc. and Delaware Investments Minnesota Municipal Income Fund II, Inc. announced that each Fund’s Board of Directors/Trustees approved the following clarifications to the Funds’ non-fundamental investment policies at a meeting held on August 16-17, 2006. These clarifications became effective September 4, 2006.

Delaware Investments Arizona Municipal Income Fund, Inc.

The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in municipal obligations issued by or on behalf of territories of the United States – such as Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands or Puerto Rico – that are exempt from Arizona and federal income tax, subject to the Fund’s fundamental investment policy to invest 80% of its net assets in Arizona municipal obligations. The Fund may invest without limit in the lowest tier of investment grade rated bonds (i.e., rated Baa by Moody’s or BBB by S&P).

Delaware Investments Colorado Insured Municipal Income Fund, Inc.

The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in municipal obligations issued by or on behalf of territories of the United States – such as Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands or Puerto Rico – that are exempt from Colorado and federal income tax, subject to the Fund’s fundamental investment policy to invest 80% of its net assets in Colorado insured municipal obligations.

Delaware Investments Florida Insured Municipal Income Fund

The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in municipal obligations issued by or on behalf of territories of the United States – such as Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands or Puerto Rico – that are exempt from federal income tax subject to the Fund’s fundamental investment policy to invest 80% of its net assets in Florida insured municipal obligations.

Delaware Investments Minnesota Municipal Income Fund II, Inc.

The Fund may invest in municipal obligations issued by or on behalf of territories of the United States – such as Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands or Puerto Rico – that are exempt from Minnesota and federal income tax to the extent that not more than 5% of the Fund’s exempt interest dividends are derived from such obligations, subject to the Fund’s fundamental investment policy to invest 80% of its net assets in Minnesota municipal obligations. The Fund may invest without limit in the lowest tier of investment grade rated bonds (i.e., rated Baa by Moody’s or BBB by S&P).

As described in a press release dated February 20, 2007, Delaware Investments Arizona Municipal Income Fund, Inc. and Delaware Investments Minnesota Municipal Income Fund II, Inc. announced that each Fund’s Board of Directors approved the following changes to the Funds’ non-fundamental investment policies at a meeting held on February 14-15, 2007. These changes became effective April 23, 2007.

Delaware Investments Arizona Municipal Income Fund, Inc.

The Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets in investment grade quality Arizona municipal bonds. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in municipal bonds that are rated Ba1/BB+ or lower or that are unrated but judged to be of comparable quality by the Fund’s investment adviser. Investment in municipal bonds of below investment grade quality involves special risks as compared with investment in higher grade municipal bonds. These risks may include greater sensitivity to a general economic downturn, greater market price volatility and less secondary market trading. Securities rated below investment grade are commonly known as “junk bonds.” Such securities are regarded, on balance, as predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s ability to pay interest and repay principal owed.

Delaware Investments Minnesota Municipal Income Fund II, Inc.

The Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets in investment grade quality Minnesota municipal bonds. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in municipal bonds that are rated Ba1/BB+ or lower or that are unrated but judged to be of comparable quality by the Fund’s investment adviser. Investment in municipal bonds of below investment grade quality involves special risks as compared with investment in higher grade municipal bonds. These risks may include greater sensitivity to a general economic downturn, greater market price volatility and less secondary market trading. Securities rated below investment grade are commonly known as “junk bonds.” Such securities are regarded, on balance, as predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s ability to pay interest and repay principal owed.

As described in a press release dated May 16, 2007, Delaware Investments Colorado Insured Municipal Income Fund, Inc. and Delaware Investments Florida Insured Municipal Income Fund announced that each Fund’s Board of Directors/Trustees approved the following changes to the Funds’ fundamental investment policies be submitted to shareholders at each Fund’s upcoming annual shareholder meeting to be held in August 2007.

Other Fund information

Delaware Investments Closed-End Municipal Bond Funds

 

Delaware Investments Colorado Insured Municipal Income Fund, Inc.

The Fund will seek approval of the elimination of a fundamental policy requiring it to invest 80% of its net assets in Colorado municipal bonds insured by insurance companies with AAA-rated claims-paying ability. If approved, this fundamental investment policy would be replaced by non-fundamental investment policies permitting the Fund to invest without limitation in uninsured, Colorado municipal securities rated investment grade (including below AAA) as well as invest up to 20% of its net assets in non-investment grade Colorado municipal securities. Investment in municipal bonds of below investment grade quality involves special risks as compared with investment in higher grade municipal bonds. These risks may include greater sensitivity to a general economic downturn, greater market price volatility and less secondary market trading. Securities rated below investment grade are commonly known as “junk bonds.” Such securities are regarded, on balance, as predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s ability to pay interest and repay principal owed. Coincident with the proposed changes, the Fund’s name would be changed to “Delaware Investments Colorado Municipal Income Fund, Inc.”

Delaware Investments Florida Insured Municipal Income Fund

The Fund will seek approval of the elimination of a fundamental policy requiring it to invest 80% of its net assets in Florida municipal bonds insured by insurance companies with AAA-rated claims-paying ability. If approved, this fundamental investment policy would be replaced by non-fundamental investment policies permitting the Fund to invest without limitation in uninsured, municipal securities of any state that are rated investment grade (including below AAA) as well as invest up to 20% of its net assets in non-investment grade municipal securities. Investment in municipal bonds of below investment grade quality involves special risks as compared with investment in higher grade municipal bonds. These risks may include greater sensitivity to a general economic downturn, greater market price volatility and less secondary market trading. Securities rated below investment grade are commonly known as “junk bonds.” Such securities are regarded, on balance, as predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s ability to pay interest and repay principal owed. Coincident with the proposed changes, the Fund’s name would be changed to “Delaware Investments National Municipal Income Fund.” If approved by shareholders, the Fund anticipates that for an undetermined period of time it would remain significantly invested in Florida municipal bonds, and would gradually transition to a more nationally diversified portfolio in an attempt to help minimize the tax impact of the transition on shareholders.

Board of directors/trustees

Delaware Investments® Family of Funds

Directors/Trustees establish procedures and oversee and review the performance of the investment manager, the distributor, and others who perform services for the fund. The independent fund directors/trustees, in particular, are advocates for shareholder interests. Each director/trustee has served in that capacity since he or she was elected to or appointed to the Board of Directors, and will continue to serve until his or her retirement or the election of a new director/trustee in his or her place. The following is a list of the Directors and Officers with certain background and related information.

     (f) Not applicable.

     (h) In connection with its selection of the independent auditors, the registrant’s Audit Committee has considered the independent auditors’ provision of non-audit services to the registrant’s investment adviser and other service providers under common control with the adviser that were not required to be pre-approved pursuant to Rule 2-01(c)(7)(ii) of Regulation S-X. The Audit Committee has determined that the independent auditors’ provision of these services is compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence.

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 members of the registrant’s Audit Committee are Thomas L. Bennett, Thomas F. Madison, Janet L. Yeomans and J. Richard Zecher.


Item 6. Schedule of Investments

     Included as part of report to shareholders filed under Item 1 of this Form N-CSR.

Item 7. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies

     The registrant has formally delegated to its investment adviser (the “Adviser”) the ability to make all proxy voting decisions in relation to portfolio securities held by the registrant. If and when proxies need to be voted on behalf of the registrant, the Adviser will vote such proxies pursuant to its Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures (the “Procedures”). The Adviser has established a Proxy Voting Committee (the “Committee”) which is responsible for overseeing the Adviser’s proxy voting process for the registrant. One of the main responsibilities of the Committee is to review and approve the Procedures to ensure that the Procedures are designed to allow the Adviser to vote proxies in a manner consistent with the goal of voting in the best interests of the registrant.

     In order to facilitate the actual process of voting proxies, the Adviser has contracted with Institutional Shareholder Services (“ISS”) to analyze proxy statements on behalf of the registrant and other Adviser clients and vote proxies generally in accordance with the Procedures. The Committee is responsible for overseeing ISS’s proxy voting activities. If a proxy has been voted for the registrant, ISS will create a record of the vote. By no later than August 31 of each year, information (if any) regarding how the registrant voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recently disclosed 12-month period ended June 30 is available without charge (i) through the registrant’s website at http://www.delawareinvestments.com; and (ii) on the Commission’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

     The Procedures contain a general guideline that recommendations of company management on an issue (particularly routine issues) should be given a fair amount of weight in determining how proxy issues should be voted. However, the Adviser will normally vote against management’s position when it runs counter to its specific Proxy Voting Guidelines (the “Guidelines”), and the Adviser will also vote against management’s recommendation when it believes that such position is not in the best interests of the registrant.

     As stated above, the Procedures also list specific Guidelines on how to vote proxies on behalf of the registrant. Some examples of the Guidelines are as follows: (i) generally vote for shareholder proposals asking that a majority or more of directors be independent; (ii) generally vote against proposals to require a supermajority shareholder vote; (iii) votes on mergers and acquisitions should be considered on a case-by-case basis, determining whether the transaction enhances shareholder value; (iv) generally vote against proposals to create a new class of common stock with superior voting rights; (v) generally vote re-incorporation proposals on a case-by-case basis; (vi) votes with respect to equity-based compensation plans are generally determined on a case-by-case basis; and (vii) generally vote for proposals requesting reports on the level of greenhouse gas emissions from a company’s operations and products.


     Because the registrant has delegated proxy voting to the Adviser, the registrant is not expected to encounter any conflict of interest issues regarding proxy voting and therefore does not have procedures regarding this matter. However, the Adviser does have a section in its Procedures that addresses the possibility of conflicts of interest. Most proxies which the Adviser receives on behalf of the registrant are voted by ISS in accordance with the Procedures. Because almost all registrant proxies are voted by ISS pursuant to the pre-determined Procedures, it normally will not be necessary for the Adviser to make an actual determination of how to vote a particular proxy, thereby largely eliminating conflicts of interest for the Adviser during the proxy voting process. In the very limited instances where the Adviser is considering voting a proxy contrary to ISS’s recommendation, the Committee will first assess the issue to see if there is any possible conflict of interest involving the Adviser or affiliated persons of the Adviser. If a member of the Committee has actual knowledge of a conflict of interest, the Committee will normally use another independent third party to do additional research on the particular proxy issue in order to make a recommendation to the Committee on how to vote the proxy in the best interests of the registrant. The Committee will then review the proxy voting materials and recommendation provided by ISS and the independent third party to determine how to vote the issue in a manner which the Committee believes is consistent with the Procedures and in the best interests of the registrant.

DESCRIPTION OF MATERIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Individual portfolio managers may perform investment management services for other accounts similar to those provided to the Funds and the investment action for each account and Fund may differ. For example, one account or Fund may be selling a security, while another account or Fund may be purchasing or holding the same security. As a result, transactions executed for one account and Fund may adversely affect the value of securities held by another account. Additionally, the management of multiple accounts and Funds may give rise to potential conflicts of interest, as a portfolio manager must allocate time and effort to multiple accounts and Funds. A portfolio manager may discover an investment opportunity that may be suitable for more than one account or Fund. The investment opportunity may be limited, however, so that all accounts and Funds for which the investment would be suitable may not be able to participate. Delaware has adopted procedures designed to allocate investments fairly across multiple accounts.

COMPENSATION STRUCTURE

Each portfolio’s manager’s compensation consists of the following:

BASE SALARY – Each named portfolio manager receives a fixed base salary. Salaries are determined by a comparison to industry data prepared by third parties to ensure that portfolio manager salaries are in line with salaries paid at peer investment advisory firms.

BONUS -- Each portfolio manager is eligible to receive an annual cash bonus, which is based on quantitative and qualitative factors. There is one pool for bonus payments for the fixed income department. The amount of the pool for bonus payments is first determined by mathematical equation based on all assets managed (including investment companies, insurance product-related accounts and other separate accounts), management fees and related expenses (including fund waiver expenses) for registered investment companies, pooled vehicles, and managed separate accounts. Generally, 50%-70% of the bonus is quantitatively determined. For more senior portfolio managers, a higher percentage of the bonus is quantitatively determined. For investment companies, each manager is compensated according the Fund’s Lipper peer group percentile ranking on a one-year and three-year basis, equally weighted. For managed separate accounts the portfolio managers are compensated according to the composite percentile ranking against the Frank Russell and Callan Associates databases on a one-year and three-year basis, with three-year performance more heavily weighted. There is no objective award for a fund that falls below the 50th percentile over the three-year period. There is a sliding scale for investment companies that are ranked above the 50th percentile. The remaining 30%-50% portion of the bonus is discretionary as determined by Delaware Investments and takes into account subjective factors.


DEFERRED COMPENSATION – Each named portfolio manager is eligible to participate in the Lincoln National Corporation Executive Deferred Compensation Plan, which is available to all employees whose income exceeds a designated threshold. The Plan is a non-qualified unfunded deferred compensation plan that permits participating employees to defer the receipt of a portion of their cash compensation.

STOCK OPTION INCENTIVE PLAN/EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN - Portfolio managers may be awarded options to purchase common shares of Delaware Investments U.S., Inc. pursuant to the terms the Delaware Investments U.S., Inc. Stock Option Plan (non-statutory or “non-qualified” stock options). In addition, certain managers may be awarded restricted stock units, or “performance shares”, in Lincoln National Corporation. Delaware Investments U.S., Inc., is an indirect subsidiary of Delaware Management Holdings, Inc. Delaware Management Holdings, Inc., is in turn a indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Lincoln National Corporation.

The Delaware Investments U.S., Inc. Stock Option Plan was established in 2001 in order to provide certain Delaware investment personnel with a more direct means of participating in the growth of the investment manager. Under the terms of the plan, stock options typically vest in 25% increments on a four-year schedule and expire ten years after issuance. Options are awarded from time to time by the investment manager in its full discretion. Option awards may be based in part on seniority. The fair market value of the shares is normally determined as of each June 30 and December 31. Shares issued upon the exercise of such options must be held for six months and one day, after which time the shareholder may put them back to the issuer or the shares may be called back from the shareholder.

Portfolio managers who do not participate in the Delaware Investments U.S., Inc. Stock Option Plan are eligible to participate in Lincoln’s Long-Term Incentive Plan, which is designed to provide a long-term incentive to officers of Lincoln. Under the plan, a specified number of performance shares are allocated to each unit and are awarded to participants in the discretion of their managers in accordance with recommended targets related to the number of employees in a unit that may receive an award and the number of shares to be awarded. The performance shares have a three year vesting schedule and, at the end of the three years, the actual number of shares distributed to those who received awards may be equal to, greater than or less than the amount of the award based on Lincoln’s achievement of certain performance goals relative to a pre-determined peer group.

OTHER COMPENSATION - Portfolio managers may also participate in benefit plans and programs available generally to all employees.
