The Fund has entered into brokerage/service arrangements with several
brokers through commission recapture programs (e.g., a program where
a portion of the brokerage commissions paid on portfolio transactions
to a broker is returned directly to the Fund). These portions are
then used to offset overall Fund expenses. There can be no assurance
that these arrangements will continue in the future. For more information,
please see the prospectus.
