The prospectus and statement of additional information of each Fund is
hereby supplemented as follows:
Effective April 10, 1995:
* Purchases of the Fund's Class A shares in the amount of $1 million or more
and/or purchases of Class A shares made by a corporate qualified
retirement plan or a non-qualified deferred compensation plan sponsored by
a corporation having 100 eligible employees or more (a "Qualifying Plan")
will be at net asset value without the imposition of a front-end sales
charge (each such purchase, a "NAV Purchase").
* With respect to the NAV Purchases described above, Keystone Investment
Distributors Company will pay broker/dealers or others concessions based
on (i) the investor's cumulative purchases during the one-year period
beginning with the date of the initial NAV Purchase and (ii) the
investor's cumulative purchases during each subsequent one-year period
beginning with the first NAV Purchase following the end of the prior
period. For such purchases, concessions will be paid at the following
rate: 1.00% of the investment amount up to $2,999,999; plus 0.50% of the
investment amount between $3,000,000 and $4,999,999; plus 0.25% of the
investment amount over $4,999,999.
* Class A shares acquired in a NAV Purchase will be subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge ("CDSC") of 1.00% upon redemption during the 24
month period commencing on the date the shares were originally purchased.
* CDSC will be waived under the following additional circumstances:
For each Fund's Class A, B, and C shares, no CDSC will be imposed on
any redemption consisting of (1) loan proceeds to a retirement plan
participant; (2) financial hardship withdrawals made by a retirement plan
participant; or (3) returns of excess contributions or excess deferral
amounts made to a retirement plan participant.
With respect to Class A shares purchased by a Qualifying Plan at net
asset value or Class C shares purchased by a Qualifying Plan, no CDSC will
be imposed on any redemptions made specifically by an individual
participant in the Qualifying Plan. This waiver is not available in the
event a Qualifying Plan as a whole redeems substantially all of its
assets.
