 On April 11, 2000, T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. ("T. Rowe Price") entered
 into an agreement with Robert Fleming Holdings, Ltd. and other related
 companies (collectively "Flemings") to purchase Flemings's 50% interest in Rowe
 Price-Fleming International, Inc. ("RPFI"), the investment adviser to the
 funds. As a result of the purchase, T. Rowe Price will own all of RPFI and have
 the right to elect all of its directors. The transaction is subject to the
 approval of several regulatory bodies outside the United States but, barring
 any unexpected developments, should be finalized no later than December 31,
 2000. Because the transaction may be deemed to be a change in control of RPFI
 that would result in the termination of the investment management agreements
 between RPFI and the funds, we intend to seek the approval of the boards of
 directors and shareholders of the funds of new investment management agreements
 with RPFI. It is anticipated that any new investment management agreements
 would be identical in all material respects to the existing agreements with
 RPFI. We expect to hold shareholder meetings to vote on the new agreements in
 the second half of this year. Research agreements between RPFI and Flemings
 also will cease at the time the transaction becomes final. At that time, the
 parties may enter into a transition agreement under which research and other
 services will be provided to RPFI by Flemings.
