                  guaranteed by the United States, its agencies or
                  instrumentalities and repurchase agreements involving such
                  securities) if as a result more than 5% (25% with respect to
                  the Technology Fund) of the total assets of the Fund would be
                  invested in the securities of such issuer or the Fund (with
                  the exception of the Technology Fund) would own more than 10%
                  of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer. This
                  restriction applies to 75% (50% with respect to the Technology
                  Fund) of the Fund's assets. For purposes of this limitation, a
                  security is considered to be issued by the government entity
                  whose assets and revenues guarantee or back the security. With

                  bonds backed only by the assets and revenues of a
