The Fund’s use of leverage over the reporting period helped the Fund generate a higher yield for common stockholders. It also positively contributed to overall results as it magnified the increase in the market value of the Fund’s securities during the reporting period. As of September 30, 2009, leverage accounted for approximately 39% of the Fund’s total assets. (Leverage magnifies returns on both the upside and on the downside.)
 
As of September 30, 2009, the Fund was trading at a discount of 4.8%, while the median discount of its Lipper peer group was also 4.8%. A fund trades at a discount when the market price at which its shares trade is less than its net asset value. Alternately, a fund trades at a premium when the market price at which its shares trade is more than its net asset value per share. The market price is the price the market is willing to pay for shares of a fund at a given time, and may be influenced by a range of factors, including supply and demand and market conditions. Net asset value per share is determined by dividing the value of the Fund’s securities, cash and other assets, less all liabilities, by the total number of common shares outstanding.

Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc.

During the reporting period, the Fund continued to have outstanding auction preferred shares (“APS”). As we wrote in the Fund’s previous shareholder report, auction preferred shares, which are a type of preferred stock issued by many closed-end funds, are used to leverage the Fund’s investments (that is, buy more municipal securities). In utilizing leverage, the Fund sought to generate incremental yields and returns for the Fund’s common shareholders. (For purposes of clarification, purchasers of APS in a closed-end fund are known as “preferred shareholders,” while the remaining investors are known as “common shareholders.”)
 
Throughout the reporting period, APS auctions continued to “fail” as existing holders of APS looking to sell their shares through the auction process were unable to do so due to insufficient buy orders. We’d like to again point out that these failed auctions were not “credit events” for the Fund. In other words, they weren’t caused by, nor did they result in, a default by the Fund. Rather, they were liquidity events that impacted a closed-end fund’s preferred and common shareholders differently.
 
At the end of 2008, the Fund engaged in a partial redemption of APS, approximately 11.1% of its total outstanding APS at that time. This decreased the level of the Fund’s leverage. The decrease helped to ensure that the Fund would continue to meet its asset coverage requirements in the difficult market environment, which is key to the ability of a closed-end fund to continue paying dividends on its common stock. This also helped adjust the amount of leverage to then-current market opportunities.

An interview with Portfolio Manager Kevin McIntyre
Q.   Can you describe the economic environment during the reporting period?
A.   While economic growth in the US remained weak during much of the reporting period, the longest recession since the Great Depression ended during this time. Looking back, gross domestic product (“GDP”) declined during the third and fourth quarters of 2008. The economy continued to contract during the first half of 2009, as first quarter GDP posted a significant decline. While the economy continued to struggle during the second quarter, it fell at a more modest pace. This relatively better reading was largely the result of smaller declines in exports and business spending.
     
    After four consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth, the estimate for third quarter 2009 GDP growth was a positive 3.5%. The economy’s turnaround was due, in part, to the government’s $787 billion stimulus program, which included an $8,000 tax credit for first-time home buyers,

    as well as the “Cash for Clunkers” car rebate program, which has since concluded.
     
Q.   How did the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) and US Treasury Department react in this economic environment?
A.   Both the Fed and US Treasury Department were extremely active given the magnitude of the economic decline and the turmoil in the financial markets. In addition to flooding the financial system with billions of dollars since the recession began in December 2007, the Fed and Treasury were actively involved in the acquisition and mergers of several storied financial institutions. The Treasury also oversaw the $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”) and introduced the Public-Private Partnership Investment Program (PPIP), the latter of which is seeking to facilitate the purchase of $40 billion of “toxic” mortgage assets from bank balance sheets.
     
    To bolster the economy, the Fed reduced the fed funds rate on several occasions during the reporting period. (The federal funds rate, or “fed funds” rate, is the rate that banks charge one another for funds they borrow on an overnight basis.) When the period began, the fed funds rate was 2.00%. However, with the global financial crisis rapidly escalating and oil prices falling sharply, the Fed moved into action on October 8, 2008, as it cut the fed funds rate in a coordinated interest rate cut with several other central banks from around the world. The Fed reduced the rate again on October 29, 2008, bringing the rate to 1.00%. Then, during its meeting on December 16, the Fed aggressively cut the fed funds rate to a range of 0.00% to 0.25%—a record low.
     
    The Fed has since maintained this rate as it evaluates incoming economic data, and has indicated that the rate is likely to remain in its low range. In conjunction with its September 2009 meeting, the Fed stated that it will “...maintain the target range for the federal funds rate at 0% to 0.25% and continues to anticipate that economic conditions are likely to warrant exceptionally low levels of the federal funds rate for an extended period.”
     
Q.   How did the bond market perform during the reporting period?
A.   The US bond market as a whole generated strong results during the 12-month reporting period. After a lengthy period of heightened risk aversion, investors were gradually drawn to lower-quality, non-Treasury securities as the reporting period progressed. This followed signs that the US government’s aggressive initiatives to stabilize the financial markets were succeeding, as well as optimism that positive economic growth would return later in 2009. In particular, lower-rated securities

    generated exceptional returns during the second half of the reporting period. Overall, during the 12 months ended September 30, 2009, the US bond market, as measured by the Barclays Capital US Aggregate Bond Index, returned 10.56%.*
     
    Municipal bonds generated even better returns than their taxable counterparts during the reporting period, as the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index gained 14.85%. Both strong demand from investors seeking incremental yields and sharply lower levels of new issuance of tax-exempt bonds supported the municipal market during this time; however, the markets were volatile, and from month to month, trading in municipal securities was very “choppy”. The passing of US legislation allowing states to issue taxable bonds and receive a 35% “tax rebate” from the federal government continued to affect the amount of new issuance of tax-exempt debt. Dubbed “Build America Bonds,” these bonds have been issued at an average rate of $5 billion a month since April 2009, and it is estimated that states will issue approximately $60 billion in taxable debt over each of the next two years before the legislation expires. A lower level of municipal supply tends to benefit the performance of tax-fee municipal bonds, especially in light of continued strong demand for these securities.
     
Q.   In general terms, how did you position the Fund?
A.   When the reporting period began, the Fund’s duration was slightly longer than that of its benchmark. (Duration is a measure of a fund’s sensitivity to interest rate changes, and is related to the maturity of the bonds comprising the portfolio.) As the period progressed, however, we decreased the Fund’s duration and ended the reporting period modestly shorter than the benchmark.
     
    From a yield curve positioning perspective, the Fund was rewarded for having an underweight to the one- to five-year portion of the yield curve, as these securities lagged their longer-term counterparts. In addition, maintaining an overweight to the 15- to 25-year portion of the yield curve also enhanced the Fund’s results.
     
Q.   Which sector positions were important for the Fund?
A.   The Fund’s overweight to the university sector was a significant contributor to performance. Many of these securities have longer-term maturities and they benefited from the rally at the long end of the municipal yield curve. An overweight position to the hospital sector
     

*   Formerly known as the Lehman Brothers US Aggregate Bond Index.

    was also beneficial, as it outperformed the overall municipal market. During the second half of 2008, spreads—the difference between the yields paid on hospital sector securities versus those paid on US Treasury bonds—widened quite significantly, in large part due to factors other than credit fundamentals. Therefore, we maintained an overweight so far throughout 2009, believing that spreads would contract for select hospitals, indicating greater investor confidence in these issues. Having an underweight to pre-refunded bonds was also a positive for the Fund’s performance, as these higher-quality, shorter-term securities lagged the benchmark given the rally in lower-rated, longer-term securities.*

Detracting from these results was the Fund’s underweight to the housing sector, as lower-quality securities in the sector generated strong results as investor risk aversion decreased over the 12-month reporting period.
     
Q.   How was the Fund positioned from a quality perspective?
A.   Consistent with its stated goals, the Fund emphasized higher-quality, investment grade securities. However, in order to diversify the portfolio and to generate incremental yield, the Fund was underweight AAA-rated securities relative to the benchmark, and had a relative overweight to securities with an AA rating. This positioning positively contributed to relative performance during the reporting period.
     
Q.   Were any states or regions an area of focus for the Fund?
A.   A large portion of outstanding municipal securities is issued by a fairly small number of states. As of September 30, 2009, around half of the Fund’s holdings were in the securities of issuers in five states: Texas, California, Washington, Illinois and New York.
     
    We focused our efforts on purchasing bonds from states that are, in our view, experiencing improved fiscal health and offering attractively valued municipal bonds. Given this aim, we held an overweight in Texas, which positively contributed to results. We continued to maintain an underweight to California, with a focus on essential services, hospitals and universities, while avoiding general obligations of the state. This also enhanced the Fund’s performance during the reporting period.
     

*   Pre-refunded bonds are issues that are scheduled to be called (retired) on the first possible call date. These bonds are not immediately retired, but rather are secured by an escrow fund that is backed by high-quality US government bonds. The rating of the refunded bond generally assumes the rating of the government obligations at the time the escrow fund is established.

Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc.

Q.   What is your outlook for the economy and the municipal bond market?  
A.   Overall, it appears that many of the actions taken by policy makers at the US Treasury Department and the Fed are having their intended effect—increasing liquidity within the financial system and providing credit to consumers and businesses. In light of the historically low fed funds rate, we expect Treasury and money market yields to remain relatively low in the near future. While there has been increased appetite for non-Treasuries and their spreads have narrowed considerably, we are mindful of the tenuous nature of this economic recovery. In addition, while uncertainty in the markets has diminished, it has not yet been banished entirely, and has not returned to pre-crisis levels.  
       
    Historically, default rates in the investment grade municipal arena are below 1%. Municipalities today are challenged to effectively manage their finances, given a declining revenue stream and rising expenses. Overall, however, we don’t expect a wave of defaults, as states and municipalities have numerous tools to enhance and increase their revenue streams and reduce expenditures. However, we must note that the outlook for municipal issuers is negative, and we do expect rating agency downgrades to outpace upgrades for the foreseeable future. In this environment, we are relying on our rigorous credit research to select those municipal credits that are better prepared to cover their expenses and liabilities.  
       
    In addition, we should also note two factors, in particular, that impacted the level of Fund expenses over the reporting period. First, there were certain costs related to the partial redemption of APS in December 2008 and the introduction of the Tender Option Bond (“TOB”) Program in September 2008 as a diversifying source of leverage. These costs were offset to some degree by the relatively lower interest rates paid to borrow through the TOB Program versus the rates paid on the APS. Because of various financial statement presentation requirements, the costs of leverage via the TOB Program are presented differently than costs associated with APS.  
       
    Second, considerable resources were expended by the Fund, its Board and the Fund’s advisor in time, money and effort to address attacks by certain activist investors. These attacks diverted resources from the management of your Fund. Although the advisor waived a significant percentage of its advisory fee during the reporting period, these expenses negatively impacted the Fund.

Past performance does not predict future performance. The return and value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Fund’s common stock net asset value (“NAV”) return assumes, for illustration only, that dividends and other distributions, if any, were reinvested at the NAV on the payable dates. The Fund’s common stock market price returns assume that all dividends and other distributions, if any, were reinvested at prices obtained under the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder could pay on Fund dividends and other distributions, if any, or the sale of Fund shares.

The Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index (formerly known as the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index) is an unmanaged, unleveraged measure of the total return for municipal bonds issued across the United States. Index returns do not include reinvestment of dividends. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees, expenses or taxes.

(1)   Calculated using the average shares method.
(2)   Total net asset value return is calculated assuming a $10,000 purchase of common stock at the current net asset value on the first day of each year reported and a sale at the current net asset value on the last day of each year reported, and assuming reinvestment of dividends and other distributions at the net asset value on the payable date. Total investment return based on net asset value is hypothetical as investors can not purchase or sell Fund shares at net asset value but only at market prices. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder could pay on Fund dividends and other distributions, if any, or the sale of Fund shares.
(3)   Total market price return is calculated assuming a $10,000 purchase of common stock at the current market price on the first day of each year reported and a sale at the current market price on the last day of each year reported, and assuming reinvestment of dividends and other distributions to common shareholders at prices obtained under the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan. Total investment return does not reflect brokerage commissions. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder could pay on Fund dividends and distributions, if any, or the sale of Fund shares.
(4)   Interest expense represents interest and fees on short term floating rate notes issued in conjunction with inverse floating rate securities. Interest income from such transactions is included in income from investment operations.

Organization and significant accounting policies
Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc. (the “Fund”) was incorporated in Maryland on August 6, 1992, and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a closed-end diversified management investment company. The Fund’s investment objective is to achieve a high level of current income that is exempt from federal income tax, consistent with the preservation of capital. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved.

In the normal course of business the Fund may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations or that provide indemnification for certain liabilities. 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 has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) established the FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM (“Codification”) as the single source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with US generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Codification supersedes existing nongrandfathered, non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. The Codification did not change GAAP but rather organized it into a hierarchy where all guidance within the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification became effective on July 1, 2009. The Codification did not have a material effect on the Fund’s financial statements.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the Fund’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:

Valuation of investments—The Fund calculates its net asset value based on the current market value, where available, for its portfolio securities. The Fund normally obtains market values for its securities from independent pricing sources and broker-dealers. Independent pricing sources may use last reported sale prices, official market closing price, current market quotations


29

Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc.

Notes to financial statements

or valuations from computerized “matrix” systems that derive values based on comparable securities. A matrix system incorporates parameters such as security quality, maturity and coupon, and/or research and evaluations by its staff, including review of broker-dealer market price quotations, if available, in determining the valuation of the portfolio securities. If a market value is not available from an independent pricing source for a particular security, that security is valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). Various factors may be reviewed in order to make a good faith determination of a security’s fair value. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type and cost of the security; contractual or legal restrictions on resale of the security; relevant financial or business developments of the issuer; actively traded similar or related securities; conversion or exchange rights on the security; related corporate actions; and changes in overall market conditions. If events occur that materially affect the value of securities between the close of trading in those securities and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the securities are fair valued. The amortized cost method of valuation, which approximates market value, generally is used to value short-term debt instruments with sixty days or less remaining to maturity. Securities traded in the over-the-counter (“OTC”) market are valued at the last bid price available on the valuation date prior to valuation.

GAAP requires disclosure surrounding the various inputs that are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized into the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs, including but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risks.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs inclusive of the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments.

A fair value hierarchy has been included near the end of the Fund’s Portfolio of investments.

Additionally, GAAP provides guidance on determining whether the volume and activity in a market has decreased significantly and whether such a decrease in activity results in transactions that are not orderly. GAAP requires enhanced disclosures around valuation inputs and techniques used during annual and interim periods.


30

Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc.

Notes to financial statements

In March 2008, the FASB amended Accounting Standards Codification Topic 815 Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), which changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Since investment companies value their derivatives at fair value and recognize changes in fair value through the statement of operations, they do not qualify for hedge accounting under ASC 815. Accordingly, even though a fund’s investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for purposes of disclosure under ASC 815. ASC 815 requires that (1) objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation, (2) the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses be disclosed in a tabular format, and (3) information be disclosed about credit-risk contingent features of derivatives contracts. ASC 815 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008.

Transactions in derivative instruments during the year ended September 30, 2009, were as follows:

    Interest rate risk

Realized loss(1)      
Futures contracts   $(715,318 )

Unrealized depreciation(2)      
Futures contracts   $(57,303 )


(1)   Statement of operations location. Net realized gain (loss) from futures.
(2)   Statement of operations location. Net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation of futures.

Repurchase agreements—The Fund may purchase securities or other obligations from a bank or securities dealer (or its affiliate), subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase them at an agreed upon date (or upon demand) and price. The Fund maintains custody of the underlying obligations prior to their repurchase, either through its regular custodian or through a special “tri-party” custodian or sub-custodian that maintains a separate account for both the Fund and its counterparty. The underlying collateral is valued daily to ensure that the value, including accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. In the event of default of the obligation to repurchase, the Fund generally has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. Repurchase agreements involving obligations other than US government securities (such as commercial paper, corporate bonds and mortgage loans) may be subject to special risks and may not have the benefit of certain protections


31

Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc.

Notes to financial statements

in the event of counterparty insolvency. If the seller (or seller’s guarantor, if any) becomes insolvent, the Fund may suffer delays, costs and possible losses in connection with the disposition or retention of the collateral. Under certain circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings. The Fund may participate in joint repurchase agreement transactions with other funds managed, advised or sub-advised by UBS Global Asset Management (Americas) Inc. (“UBS Global AM”).

Floating-rate notes issued in conjunction with securities held—Tender option bond program
The Fund may sell a fixed-rate bond (“Fixed-Rate Bond”) to a broker who deposits the Fixed-Rate Bond into a special-purpose entity from which are issued floating-rate notes (“Floating-Rate Notes”) that are sold to third parties. The Floating-Rate Notes have interest rates that reset weekly and the holders of the Floating-Rate Notes have the option to tender their notes to the broker at par at each reset date. A residual certificate (an “Inverse Floater”), which pays interest based on the difference between the Fixed-Rate Bond and the Floating-Rate Notes (after certain costs are taken into account), is also issued by the special-purpose entity. The Inverse Floater also gives the holder the right to cause the Floating-Rate Note to be called at par and to require transfer of the Fixed-Rate Bond to the holder of the Inverse Floater, thereby liquidating the special-purpose entity. In certain transactions, the Fund ultimately receives the Inverse Floater plus the cash equivalent of the proceeds raised from the issuance of the Floating-Rate Notes in exchange for the Fixed-Rate Bonds, less fees and expenses.

Although the Fund physically holds the Inverse Floater, the transaction is accounted for as a secured borrowing pursuant to GAAP because of its unilateral right to cause the liquidation of the special-purpose entity and recover the Fixed-Rate Bond it originally sold to the broker. In accordance with GAAP, the Fund includes the Fixed-Rate Bond on the Portfolio of investments and recognizes the Floating-Rate Notes as a liability on the Statement of assets and liabilities.

At September 30, 2009, the aggregate value of the underlying bonds transferred to special-purpose entities was $26,495,000 and the related liability for Floating-Rate Notes was $19,865,000. The range of interest rates on the liability for Floating-Rate Notes was 0.180% to 5.820%, at a weighted average rate of 0.886% for the year ended September 30, 2009.


32

Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc.

Notes to financial statements

At September 30, 2009, the aggregate value of the Inverse Floaters was $6,630,000, at a weighted average yield of 16.102%.

Investment transactions and investment income—Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are calculated using the identified cost method. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized as adjustments to interest income and the identified cost of investments.

Futures contracts—The Fund may purchase and sell municipal bond index futures and other interest rate futures. The Fund may use futures as a substitute for taking a position in an underlying security or other asset and/or as part of a strategy designed to reduce exposure to other risks, such as interest rate risk. The Fund also may use futures to add leverage to the portfolio and/or to hedge against increases in the Fund’s costs associated with the dividend payments on the preferred stock. Futures strategies also can be used to manage the average duration of the Fund’s portfolio. If UBS Global AM wishes to shorten the average duration of the Fund, the Fund may sell a futures contract. If UBS Global AM wishes to lengthen the average duration of the Fund, the Fund may buy a futures contract.

Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund is required to deliver to a broker an amount of cash and/or securities equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. This amount is known as the “initial margin.” Subsequent payments, known as “variation margin”, are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying financial futures contracts. Such variation margin is recorded for financial statement purposes on a daily basis as unrealized gain or loss until the financial futures contract is closed, at which time the net gain or loss is reclassified to realized gain or loss on futures. Variation margin calls could be substantial in the event of adverse price movements.

Using financial futures contracts involves various market risks. If the Fund was unable to liquidate a futures position due to the absence of a liquid secondary market or the imposition of price limits, it could incur substantial losses and would continue to be subject to market risk with respect to the position. In addition, the Fund would continue to be required to make variation margin payments and might be required to maintain the position


33

Notes to financial statements

being hedged or to maintain cash or securities in a separate account. Furthermore, certain characteristics of the futures market might increase the risk that movements in the prices of the financial futures contracts might not correlate perfectly with movements in the prices of the investments being hedged, including temporary price distortion. The separate account for margin will be maintained at the futures counterparty and may be subject to risks or delays if the counterparty becomes insolvent. At September 30, 2009, the Fund had no futures contracts oustanding.

Dividends and distributions—The Fund intends to pay monthly dividends to common shareholders at a rate level that over time will result in the distribution of substantially all of the Fund’s net investment income remaining after the payment of dividends on any outstanding auction preferred shares. The dividend rate on the common stock is adjusted as necessary to reflect the earnings rate of the Fund. Dividends and distributions to common shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends to auction preferred shareholders are accrued daily. The amount of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains is determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from US generally accepted accounting principles. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.

Concentration of risk
The Fund follows an investment policy of investing primarily in municipal obligations of various states. Economic changes affecting those states and certain of their public bodies and municipalities may affect the ability of the issuers within those states to pay interest on, or repay principal of, municipal obligations held by the Fund.

Investment advisor and administrator
The Board has approved an Investment Advisory and Administration Contract, under which UBS Global AM serves as investment advisor and administrator of the Fund. UBS Global AM is an indirect wholly owned asset management subsidiary of UBS AG, an internationally diversified organization with headquarters in Zurich and Basel, Switzerland and operations in many areas of the financial services industry. In accordance with the Advisory Contract, the Fund is obligated to pay UBS Global AM an investment advisory and administration fee, which is accrued weekly and paid monthly,


34

Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc.

Notes to financial statements

at an annual rate of 0.90% of the Fund’s average weekly net assets attributable to holders of common and auction preferred shares (“APS”). UBS Global AM has agreed to waive a portion of the advisory and administration fee so that the Fund’s effective fee is 0.60% of average weekly net assets attributable only to holders of common shares. This waiver will continue indefinitely unless the Board agrees to any change. At September 30, 2009, the Fund owed UBS Global AM $74,136 for investment advisory and administration fees, which is composed of $170,538 of investment advisory and administration fees less fees waived of $96,402. For the year ended September 30, 2009, UBS Global AM waived $1,146,113 of investment advisory and administration fees from the Fund.

Additional information regarding compensation to affiliate of a board member
Professor Meyer Feldberg serves as a senior advisor to Morgan Stanley, resulting in him being an interested director of the Fund. The Fund has been informed that Professor Feldberg’s role at Morgan Stanley does not involve matters directly affecting any UBS funds. Fund transactions are executed through Morgan Stanley based on that firm’s ability to provide best execution of the transactions. During the year ended September 30, 2009, the Fund purchased and sold certain securities (e.g., fixed income securities) in principal trades with Morgan Stanley having an aggregate value of $7,134,342. Morgan Stanley received compensation in connection with these trades, which may have been in the form of a “mark-up” or “mark-down” of the price of the securities, a fee from the issuer for maintaining a commercial paper program, or some other form of compensation. Although the precise amount of this compensation is not generally known by UBS Global AM, UBS Global AM believes that under normal circumstances it represents a small portion of the total value of the transactions. In addition, Morgan Stanley may participate as a broker-dealer in auctions for the Fund’s Auction Preferred Shares and receive compensation. Amounts received by Morgan Stanley, if any, will vary depending upon that firm’s participation in an auction, and such amounts are calculated and paid by the auction agent from money provided by the Fund.

Auction preferred shares related services fees
UBS Financial Services Inc., an affiliate of UBS Global AM, provides certain services to the Fund and the holders of the outstanding APS pursuant to an agreement with Deutsche Bank, the Fund’s auction agent for APS. For the year ended September 30, 2009, UBS Financial Services Inc. received from Deutsche Bank $60,608 (paid indirectly by the Fund) for these services.

Notes to financial statements

Restricted securities
The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities is included at the end of the Fund’s “Portfolio of investments.”

Auction preferred shares
The Fund has outstanding 582 shares of auction preferred shares Series A, 582 shares of auction preferred shares Series B, and 436 shares of auction preferred shares Series C, which are referred to herein collectively as the “APS.” All shares of each series of APS have a liquidation preference of $50,000 per share plus an amount equal to accumulated but unpaid dividends upon liquidation.

The APS are entitled to one vote per share and, unless otherwise required by law, will vote with holders of common stock as a single class, except that the APS will vote separately as a class on certain matters, as required by law. The holders of the APS have the right to elect two directors of the Fund.

Dividends, which are cumulative, are generally reset every 7 days for each Series of APS. Dividend rates as of September 30, 2009 for each Series of APS were as follows and reflect the “maximum rates” under the governing instruments as a result of “failed auctions” in which sufficient clearing bids were not received:

Series A   0.518 %

Series B   0.503 %

Series C   0.563 %


For the year ended September 30, 2009, the average dividend rates for each Series of APS were 1.160%, 1.116%, and 1.216% for Series A, B and C, respectively.

The Fund is subject to certain restrictions relating to the APS. Failure to comply with these restrictions could preclude the Fund from declaring any distributions to common shareholders or repurchasing common shares and/or could trigger the mandatory redemption of APS at liquidation value.


36

Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc.

Notes to financial statements

The redemption of the Fund’s APS is deemed to be outside of the control of the Fund because it is redeemable among other circumstances, upon the occurrence of an event such as described above that is not solely within the control of the Fund.

Although not necessitated by any regulatory requirement, on December 12, 2008, the Fund announced the following redemptions of APS at a price of $50,000 per share plus any accrued and unpaid dividends through the redemption date:

    Aggregate   Number of shares   Redemption
Series of APS   principal   redeemed   payment date

Series A   $3,650,000     73   December 19, 2008

Series B   3,650,000     73   December 22, 2008

Series C   2,700,000     54   December 23, 2008


These partial redemptions had the effect of decreasing the level of the Fund’s leverage.

Purchases and sales of securities
For the year ended September 30, 2009, aggregate purchases and sales of portfolio securities, excluding short-term securities, were $21,658,144 and $24,723,975, respectively.

Federal tax status
The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its tax-exempt income and any taxable income and to comply with the other requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required. In addition, by distributing during each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, net realized capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, the Fund intends not to be subject to a federal excise tax.

The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 were as follows:

Distributions paid from:   2009   2008

Tax-exempt income   $9,350,108   $10,284,613

Ordinary income   7,988   62,959

Capital gains     1,836,954

Total distributions paid   $9,358,096   $12,184,526

Notes to financial statements

At September 30, 2009, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed tax exempt income     $302,834  

Accumulated capital and other losses     (2,753,354 )

Net unrealized appreciation of investments     5,159,168  

Total accumulated earnings     $2,708,648  


The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation/depreciation of investments is attributable to the tax treatment of certain tender option bond transactions.

At September 30, 2009, the Fund had a net capital loss carryforward of $775,717. This loss carryforward is available as a reduction, to the extent provided in the regulations, of any future net realized capital gains and will expire on September 30, 2017. To the extent that such losses are used to offset future net realized capital gains, it is probable these gains will not be distributed.

In accordance with US Treasury regulations, the Fund has elected to defer realized capital losses of $1,977,637 arising after October 31, 2008. Such losses are treated for tax purposes as arising on October 1, 2009.

For the year ended September 30, 2009, the Fund did not have any liabilities for any unrecognized tax positions. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax positions as income tax expense in the Statement of operations. During the year ended September 30, 2009, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

Each of the tax years in the four year period ended September 30, 2009, remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.

Subsequent events
Management has evaluated the effect of subsequent events on the Fund’s financial statements through November 25, 2009, the date of issuance of the Fund’s financial statements. Management has determined that there are no material subsequent events that would require disclosure in the Fund’s financial statements through this date other than the planned submission to shareholders of a proposal to liquidate the Fund as reported on page 7.

Report of Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public accounting firm

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc. (the “Fund”), including the portfolio of investments, as of September 30, 2009, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in 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 five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s 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 Fund’s 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 Fund’s 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 September 30, 2009, by correspondence with the custodian and others. 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 Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc. at September 30, 2009, 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 five years in the period then ended, in conformity with US generally accepted accounting principles.

General information (unaudited)

The Fund
Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc. (the “Fund”) is a diversified, closed-end management investment company whose common shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The Fund’s investment objective is to achieve a high level of current income that is exempt from federal income tax, consistent with the preservation of capital. The Fund’s NYSE trading symbol is “PPM.” Comparative net asset value and market price information about the Fund is available weekly in various publications.

Quarterly Form N-Q portfolio schedule
The Fund will file its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The Fund’s Forms N-Q are available on the SEC’s Web site at http://www.sec.gov. The Fund’s Forms N-Q may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. Information on the operation of the SEC’s Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC 0330. Additionally, you may obtain copies of Forms N-Q from the Fund upon request by calling 1-800-647 1568.

Proxy voting policies, procedures and record
You may obtain a description of the Fund’s (1) proxy voting policies, (2) proxy voting procedures and (3) information regarding how the Fund voted any proxies related to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 for which an SEC filing has been made, without charge, upon request by contacting the Fund directly at 1-800-647 1568, online on the Fund’s Web site: www.ubs.com/ubsglobalam-proxy, or on the EDGAR Database on the SEC’s Web site (http://www.sec.gov).

Dividend reinvestment plan
The Fund’s Board has established a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”) under which all common shareholders whose shares are registered in their own names, or in the name of UBS Financial Services Inc. or its nominee, will have all dividends and other distributions on their shares of common stock automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock, unless such common shareholders elect to receive cash. Common shareholders who elect to hold their shares in the name of another broker or nominee should contact such broker or nominee to determine whether, or how, they may participate in the Plan. The ability of such shareholders to participate in the Plan may change if their shares are transferred into the name of another broker or nominee.

General information (unaudited)

A common shareholder may elect not to participate in the Plan or may terminate participation in the Plan at any time without penalty, and common shareholders who have previously terminated participation in the Plan may rejoin it at any time. Changes in elections must be made in writing to the Fund’s transfer agent and should include the shareholder’s name and address as they appear on the share certificate or in the transfer agent’s records. An election to terminate participation in the Plan, until such election is changed, will be deemed an election by a common shareholder to take all subsequent distributions in cash. An election will be effective only for distributions declared and having a record date at least ten days after the date on which the election is received.

Additional shares of common stock acquired under the Plan will be purchased in the open market, on the NYSE or otherwise, at prices that may be higher or lower than the net asset value per share of the common stock at the time of the purchase. The number of shares of common stock purchased with each dividend will be equal to the result obtained by dividing the amount of the dividend payable to a particular shareholder by the average price per share (including applicable brokerage commissions) that the transfer agent was able to obtain in the open market. The Fund will not issue any new shares of common stock in connection with the Plan. There currently is no charge to participants for reinvesting dividends or other distributions. The transfer agent’s fees for handling the reinvestment of distributions will be paid by the Fund. However, each participant pays a pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the transfer agent’s open market purchases of common stock in connection with the reinvestment of distributions. The automatic reinvestment of dividends and other distributions in shares of common stock does not relieve participants of any income tax that may be payable on such distributions.

Experience under the Plan may indicate that changes are desirable. Accordingly, the Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan with respect to any dividend or other distribution if notice of the change is sent to Plan participants at least 30 days before the record date for such distribution. The Plan also may be amended or terminated by the transfer agent by at least 30 days’ written notice to all Plan participants. Additional information regarding the Plan may be obtained from, and all correspondence concerning the Plan should be directed to, the transfer agent at PNC Global Investment Servicing, P.O. Box 43027, Providence, Rhode Island 02940-3027. For further information regarding the Plan, you may also contact the transfer agent directly at 1-800-331 1710.

Board approval of investment advisory and administration agreement (unaudited)

Background—At a meeting of the board of Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc. (the “Fund”) on July 15-16, 2009, the members of the board, including the directors who are not “interested persons” of the Fund (“Independent Directors”), as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), considered and approved the continuance of the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement of the Fund with UBS Global Asset Management (Americas) Inc. (“UBS Global AM”). In preparing for the meeting, the board members had requested and received extensive information from UBS Global AM to assist them. The board received and considered a variety of information about UBS Global AM, as well as the advisory and administration arrangements for the Fund. The Independent Directors discussed the materials initially provided by management prior to the scheduled board meeting. The Independent Directors also met in executive session after management’s presentation was completed to review the disclosure that had been made to them at the meeting. At all of these sessions the Independent Directors were joined by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Directors also received a memorandum from their independent legal counsel discussing the duties of board members in considering approval of advisory and administration agreements.

In its consideration of the approval of the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement, the board considered the following factors:

Nature, extent and quality of the services under the investment advisory and administration agreement—The board received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of advisory services provided to the Fund by UBS Global AM under the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement during the past year. The board also considered the nature, extent and quality of administrative and shareholder services performed by UBS Global AM and its affiliates for the Fund and the resources devoted to, and the record of compliance with, the Fund’s compliance policies and procedures. The board noted that it received information at regular meetings throughout the year regarding the services rendered by UBS Global AM concerning the management of the Fund’s affairs and UBS Global AM’s role in coordinating providers of other services to the Fund. The board’s evaluation of the services provided by UBS Global AM took into account the board’s knowledge and familiarity gained as board members of funds in the UBS New York fund complex, including the scope and quality of UBS Global AM’s investment advisory


42

Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc.

Board approval of investment advisory and administration agreement (unaudited)

and other capabilities and the quality of administrative and other services. The board observed that the scope of services provided by UBS Global AM had expanded over time as a result of regulatory and other developments, including maintaining and monitoring its own and the Fund’s expanded compliance programs.

The board had available to it the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the Fund’s senior personnel and the portfolio manager primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund and recognized that many of these persons report to the board regularly and that at each regular meeting the board receives a detailed report on the Fund’s performance. The board also considered, based on its knowledge of UBS Global AM and its affiliates, the financial resources available to management and its parent organization, UBS AG. In that regard, the board received extensive financial information regarding UBS Global AM and noted that it was a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of one of the largest financial services firms in the world. It was also noted that UBS Global AM had approximately $142 billion in assets under management and was part of the UBS Global Asset Management Division, which had approximately $507 billion of assets under management worldwide as of March 31, 2009. The board was also cognizant of, and considered, the regulatory and litigation actions and investigations occurring in the past few years involving UBS AG, UBS Global AM and certain of their affiliates.

The board concluded that, overall, it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided (and expected to be provided) to the Fund under the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement.

Advisory fees and expense ratios—The board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee (“Contractual Management Fee”) payable by the Fund to UBS Global AM in light of the nature, extent and quality of the advisory and administrative services provided by UBS Global AM. The board also reviewed and considered a fee waiver arrangement for the Fund and considered the actual fee rate (after taking the waiver into account) (the “Actual Management Fee”). Additionally, the board received and considered information comparing the Fund’s Contractual Management Fee, Actual Management Fee and overall expenses with those of funds in a group of funds selected and provided by Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent provider of investment company data (the “Expense Group”).


43

Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc.

Board approval of investment advisory and administration agreement (unaudited)

In connection with its consideration of advisory fees for UBS funds generally, the board also received information from UBS Global AM with respect to standard institutional account fees. The board noted that, in general, these fees were lower than the Contractual Management Fee and Actual Management Fee for the Fund, but also noted management’s explanation that comparisons with such accounts may be of limited relevance given the different structures and regulatory requirements of funds versus such accounts and the differences in the levels of services required by funds and such accounts. The board also received information on fees charged to other funds managed by UBS Global AM.

The comparative Lipper information showed that the Fund’s Contractual Management Fee was in the fifth quintile, its Actual Management Fee was in the first quintile and total expenses were in the third quintile in the Fund’s Expense Group for the comparison periods utilized in the Lipper report (with the first quintile representing that 20% of the funds in the Expense Group with the lowest level of fees or expenses, as applicable, and the fifth quintile representing that 20% of the funds in the Expense Group with the highest level of fees or expenses, as applicable). The board focused on the fact that the Fund’s Actual Management Fee was in the first quintile and that its total expenses were in the third quintile of the Fund’s Expense Group. Management noted that the Fund’s total expenses would have been lower but for increased legal and proxy solicitation costs during the past year, as reflected in other non-management fees, due to the proxy contest conducted during the past year. In addition, management noted that the effect of the new management fee waiver that became effective on August 1, 2008 was not fully reflected in the Lipper report, given the timing of the effectiveness of that waiver.

Taking all of the above into consideration, the board determined that the management fee was reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement.

Fund performance—The board received and considered (a) annualized total return information of the Fund compared to other funds (the “Performance Universe”) selected by Lipper over the one-, three-, five-, ten-year and since inception periods ended April 30, 2009 and (b) annualized performance information for each year in the ten-year period ended April 30, 2009. The board was provided with a description of the methodology Lipper


44

Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc.

Board approval of investment advisory and administration agreement (unaudited)

used to determine the similarity of the Fund with the funds included in its Performance Universe. The board also noted that it had received information throughout the year at periodic intervals with respect to the Fund’s performance, including with respect to its benchmark index. The comparative Lipper information showed that the Fund’s performance was in the first quintile for the one-, three- and five-year periods, the third quintile for the ten-year period and the fourth quintile since inception (with the first quintile representing that 20% of the funds in the Performance Universe with the highest performance and the fifth quintile representing that 20% of the funds in the Performance Universe with the lowest performance). Based on its review, the board concluded that the Fund’s investment performance was satisfactory.

Adviser profitability—The board received and considered a profitability analysis of UBS Global AM and its affiliates in providing services to the Fund. The board also received profitability information with respect to the UBS New York fund complex as a whole. UBS Global AM’s profitability was considered not excessive in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund.

Economies of scale—The board received and considered information from management regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund, whether the Fund has appropriately benefited from any economies of scale, and whether there is potential for realization of further economies of scale for the Fund. The board considered whether economies of scale in the provision of services to the Fund were being passed along to shareholders. The board also considered whether alternative fee structures (such as breakpoints) would be more appropriate or reasonable taking into consideration economies of scale or other efficiencies.

In conducting its review, the board noted that the Fund’s Contractual Management Fee did not contain any breakpoints. Further, the board noted that advisory agreements of closed-end funds usually do not contain breakpoints. Management informed the board that the Fund, as a closed-end investment company, was not expected to materially increase in size; thus, UBS Global AM would not benefit from economies of scale.

The board members considered whether economies of scale could be realized because UBS Global AM advises other similar funds, and, based


45

Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund Inc.

Board approval of investment advisory and administration agreement (unaudited)

on their experience, the board accepted UBS Global AM’s explanation that significant economies of scale would not be realized because the nature of the market in which the Fund invests did not provide significant savings.

Other benefits to UBS Global AM—The board considered other benefits received by UBS Global AM and its affiliates as a result of its relationship with the Fund, including the opportunity to offer additional products and services to Fund shareholders.

In light of the costs of providing investment management, administrative and other services to the Fund and UBS Global AM’s ongoing commitment to the Fund, the profits and other ancillary benefits that UBS Global AM and its affiliates received were considered reasonable.

In light of all of the foregoing, the board approved the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement to continue for another year.

In making its decision, the board identified no single factor as being determinative in approving the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement. The Independent Directors were advised by separate independent legal counsel throughout the entire process. The board discussed the proposed continuance of the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement in a private session with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of UBS Global AM were present.

  (e)   (1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures:
        The registrant’s Audit Committee (“audit committee”) has adopted an “Audit Committee Charter (Amended and Restated as of May 12, 2004 - with revisions through August 2009)” (the “charter”). The charter contains the audit committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures. Reproduced below is an excerpt from the charter regarding pre-approval policies and procedures:

  The [audit ]Committee shall:
   
  . . .

  2.   Pre-approve (a) all audit and permissible non-audit services1 to be provided to the Fund and (b) all permissible non-audit services to be provided by the Fund’s independent auditors to UBS Global [Asset Management (Americas) Inc. (“UBS Global AM”)] and any Covered Service Providers, if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund. In carrying out this responsibility, the Committee shall seek periodically from UBS Global [AM] and from the independent auditors a list of such audit and permissible non-audit services that can be expected to be rendered to the Fund, UBS Global [AM] or any Covered Service Providers by the Fund’s independent auditors, and an estimate of the fees sought to be paid in connection with such services. The Committee may delegate its responsibility to pre-approve any such audit and permissible non-audit services to a sub-committee consisting of the Chairperson of the Committee

      and two other members of the Committee as the Chairperson, from time to time, may determine and appoint, and such sub-committee shall report to the Committee, at its next regularly scheduled meeting after the sub-committee’s meeting, its decision(s). From year to year, the Committee shall report to the Board whether this system of pre-approval has been effective and efficient or whether this Charter should be amended to allow for pre-approval pursuant to such policies and procedures as the Committee shall approve, including the delegation of some or all of the Committee’s pre-approval responsibilities to other persons (other than UBS Global [AM] or the Fund’s officers).

   
       
      1 The Committee will not approve non-audit services that the Committee believes may taint the independence of the auditors. Currently, permissible non-audit services include any professional services (including tax services) that are not prohibited services as described below, provided to the Fund by the independent auditors, other than those provided to the Fund in connection with an audit or a review of the financial statements of the Fund. Permissible non-audit services may not include: (i) bookkeeping or other services related to the accounting records or financial statements of the Fund; (ii) financial information systems design and implementation; (iii) appraisal or valuation services, fairness opinions or contribution-in-kind reports; (iv) actuarial services; (v) internal audit outsourcing services; (vi) management functions or human resources; (vii) broker or dealer, investment adviser or investment banking services; (viii) legal services and expert services unrelated to the audit; and (ix) any other service the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board determines, by regulation, is impermissible.
       
      Pre-approval by the Committee of any permissible non-audit services is not required so long as: (i) the aggregate amount of all such permissible non-audit services provided to the Fund, UBS Global [AM] and any service providers controlling, controlled by or under common control with UBS Global [AM] that provide ongoing services to the Fund (“Covered Service Providers”) constitutes not more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid to the independent auditors (during the fiscal year in which the permissible non-audit services are provided) by (a) the Fund, (b) its investment adviser and (c) any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund during the fiscal year in which the services are provided that would have to be approved by the Committee; (ii) the permissible non-audit services were not recognized by the Fund at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (iii) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Committee and approved by the Committee (or its delegate(s)) prior to the completion of the audit.

  (e)   (2) Services approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X:
         
        Audit-Related Fees:
        There were no amounts that were approved by the audit committee pursuant to the de minimis exception for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 on behalf of the registrant.
         
        There were no amounts that were required to be approved by the audit committee pursuant to the de minimis exception for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 on behalf of the registrant’s service providers that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant.
         
        Tax Fees:
        There were no amounts that were approved by the audit committee pursuant to the de minimis exception for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 on behalf of the registrant.
         
        There were no amounts that were required to be approved by the audit committee pursuant to the de minimis exception for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 on behalf of the registrant’s service providers that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant.
         
        All Other Fees:
        There were no amounts that were approved by the audit committee pursuant to the de minimis exception for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 on behalf of the registrant.
         
        There were no amounts that were required to be approved by the audit committee pursuant to the de minimis exception for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 on behalf of the registrant’s service providers that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant.

  (f)   According to E&Y, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009, the percentage of hours spent on the audit of the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year that were attributed to work performed by persons who are not full-time, permanent employees of E&Y was 0%.
               
  (g)   For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008, the aggregate fees billed by E&Y of $1,917,928 and $1,362,313, respectively, for non-audit services rendered on behalf of the registrant (“covered”), its investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser (“non-covered”) that provides ongoing services to the registrant for each of the last two fiscal years of the registrant is shown in the table below:
                 
          2009   2008  
         
 
 
      Covered Services   $23,033   $21,873  
      Non-Covered Services   1,894,895   1,340,440  
                 
  (h)   The registrant’s audit committee was not required to consider whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under

      common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.  

Item 5. Audit Committee of Listed Registrants.

The registrant has a separately designated standing audit committee (the “Audit Committee”) established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Audit Committee is comprised of the following board members: Mr. Armstrong, Mr. Bernikow, Mr. Burt, Mr. Garil and Ms. Higgins.

Item 6. Investments.

     (a)     Included as part of the report to shareholders filed under Item 1 of this form.
     (b)     Not applicable.

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

The registrant’s Board of Directors believes that the voting of proxies on securities held by the registrant is an important element of the overall investment process. As such, the Board has delegated the responsibility to vote such proxies to the registrant’s advisor. Following is a summary of the proxy voting policy of the advisor.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PHILOSOPHY, VOTING GUIDELINES AND POLICY SUMMARY

The proxy voting policy of UBS Global Asset Management (Americas) Inc. (“UBS Global AM”) is based on its belief that voting rights have economic value and must be treated accordingly. Generally, UBS Global AM expects the boards of directors of companies issuing securities held by its clients to act as stewards of the financial assets of the company, to exercise good judgment and practice diligent oversight with the management of the company. While there is no absolute set of rules that determines appropriate corporate governance under all circumstances and no set of rules will guarantee ethical behavior, there are certain benchmarks, which, if substantial progress is made toward, give evidence of good corporate governance. UBS Global AM may delegate to an independent proxy voting and research service the authority to exercise the voting rights associated with certain client holdings. Any such delegation shall be made with the direction that the votes be exercised in accordance with UBS Global AM’s proxy voting policy.

When UBS Global AM’s view of a company’s management is favorable, UBS Global AM generally supports current management initiatives. When UBS Global AM’s view is that changes to the management structure would probably increase shareholder value, UBS Global AM may not support existing management proposals. In general, UBS Global AM (1) opposes proposals which act to entrench management; (2) believes that boards should be independent of company management and composed of persons with requisite skills, knowledge and experience; (3) opposes structures which impose financial constraints on changes in control; (4) believes remuneration should be commensurate with responsibilities and performance; and (5) believes that appropriate steps should be taken to ensure the independence of auditors.


UBS Global AM has implemented procedures designed to identify whether it has a conflict of interest in voting a particular proxy proposal, which may arise as a result of its or its affiliates’ client relationships, marketing efforts or banking and broker/dealer activities. To address such conflicts, UBS Global AM has imposed information barriers between it and its affiliates who conduct banking, investment banking and broker/dealer activities and has implemented procedures to prevent business, sales and marketing issues from influencing proxy votes. Whenever UBS Global AM is aware of a conflict with respect to a particular proxy, its appropriate local corporate governance committee is required to review and agree to the manner in which such proxy is voted.

           
Item 8. Portfolio Managers of Closed-End Management Investment Companies.
           
  (a)   (1) Name – Kevin McIntyre
        Title – Vice President
        Length of Service – Since 2005
           
     
Business Experience Last 5 Years – Mr. McIntyre is a director (since March 2003) and portfolio manager (since October 2005) of UBS Global Asset Management (Americas) Inc. (“UBS Global AM”) and UBS Global Asset Management (US) Inc. (collectively, “UBS Global AM – Americas Region”). He is also Head of Municipal Trading since 2002. Prior to that he was a trader and assistant portfolio manager with UBS Global AM–Americas region. Mr. McIntyre is a vice president of one investment company for which UBS Global AM–Americas region or one of its affiliates serves as investment advisor, sub-advisor or manager.
           
      Information is as of – November 30, 2009
           
  (a)   (2) (i) Portfolio Manager
           
          Kevin McIntyre
           
  (a)   (2) (ii) (A) Registered Management Investment Companies
           
     
The portfolio manager was responsible for one additional Registered Management Investment Company (not including the Registrant) totaling approximately $460 million as of September 30, 2009; however, involvement with such other Registered Management Investment Company ceased on October 18, 2009.
           
  (a)   (2) (ii) (B) Other Pooled Investment Vehicles
           
          None
           
  (a)   (2) (ii) (C) Other Accounts
           
          None
           

  (a)   (2) (iii) Accounts with respect to which an advisory fee is based on the performance of the account.
           
          None
           
  (a)   (2) (iv) Conflicts.
           
     
The management of the Registrant and other accounts by a portfolio manager could result in potential conflicts of interest if the Registrant and other accounts have different objectives, benchmarks and fees because the portfolio manager and the team of which he is a member must allocate time and investment expertise across multiple accounts, including the Registrant. The portfolio manager and the team of which he is a member manage the Registrant and other accounts utilizing an approach that groups similar accounts by characteristics and objectives. UBS Global AM manages accounts according to their respective objectives, including where possible, those accounts that have specific investment restrictions. Accordingly, portfolio holdings, position sizes, and industry and sector exposures tend to be similar across accounts, which may minimize the potential for conflicts of interest.
           
     
If a portfolio manager identifies a limited investment opportunity that may be suitable for more than one account, the Registrant may not be able to take full advantage of that opportunity due to an allocation of filled purchase or sale orders across all eligible portfolios and accounts. To deal with these situations, UBS Global AM has adopted procedures for allocating portfolio trades across multiple accounts to provide fair treatment to all accounts.
           
     
The management of personal accounts by a portfolio manager may also give rise to potential conflicts of interest. UBS Global AM and the Registrant have adopted a Code of Ethics that governs such personal trading, but there is no assurance that the Code will adequately address all such conflicts.
           
     
(Information in Item 8(a)(2) is provided as of the Registrant’s fiscal year end of September 30, 2009.)
           
  (a)   (3) Compensation.
           
     
UBS Global AM’s compensation and benefits programs are designed to provide its investment professionals with incentives to excel, and to promote an entrepreneurial, performance-oriented culture. The total compensation received by the portfolio managers and analysts at UBS Global AM, including the Fund’s portfolio manager, has three basic components – a fixed component (base salary and benefits), a variable cash compensation component (which is correlated with performance) and, for more senior employees, a variable equity component (reinforcing the critical importance of creating long-term business value), which are described in more detail below:
           
      The fixed component (base salary and benefits) is set to be competitive in the industry and is monitored and adjusted periodically with reference to the labor market in order to remain so. The fixed component is used to recognize the experience, skills and knowledge that portfolio managers and analysts bring to their role.

      Variable cash compensation is determined annually on a discretionary basis. It is correlated with the individual’s contribution (financial and non-financial) to UBS Global AM’s business results and the performance of the individual’s respective function, UBS Global AM and UBS. As its name implies, this can be variable.
      Variable equity – Many senior employees are required to take a portion of their annual variable cash compensation in the form of UBS shares or notional shares instead of cash. UBS Global AM believes that, not only does this reinforce the critical importance of creating long-term business value, it also serves as an effective retention tool because the shares typically vest over a number of years.
           
     
UBS Global AM strongly believes that tying portfolio managers’ variable cash compensation to both the short-term and longer-term performance of their portfolios closely aligns the portfolio managers’ interests with those of the firm’s clients. The total variable cash compensation available generally will depend on the firm’s overall profitability. The allocation of the variable cash compensation pool to each portfolio manager is based on an equal weighting of their investment performance (relative to the funds’ benchmarks) for all the funds they manage. In the case of Investment Grade Municipal Income Fund, the relevant benchmark is the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index. The portfolio manager’s investment performance over one-, two- and three-year periods to the latest year end is taken into account and this has the effect of placing greater emphasis on the performance for the most recent year (as their one-year performance impacts their two- and three-year annualized results) while keeping the longer-term performance in focus. Further, the delivery of variable cash compensation is subject to a number of deferral mechanisms including investment in UBS shares.
           
     
For analysts, variable cash compensation is, in general, tied to the performance of some combination of model and/or client portfolios, generally evaluated over rolling three-year periods and coupled with a qualitative assessment of their contribution.
