URGENT PROXY INFORMATION...
PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE NOW!
URGENT REMINDER! THE SCHEDULED SPECIAL SHAREHOLDER MEETING FOR YOUR
FUND IS IN DANGER OF BEING ADJOURNED DUE TO LACK OF VOTER

Dear Shareholder:
Several weeks ago, we mailed you proxy information so that you could
vote on an important proposal that affects your fund. This
information described the merger proposal and asked for your vote on
this important issue. It has been called to our attention that we
have not yet received your ballot.
YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT, NO MATTER HOW LARGE OR SMALL YOUR HOLDINGS MAY
BE.
The shareholder meeting cannot be held until we receive a majority of
the votes. If you haven't done so already, please cast your vote.
