* A CDSC may be imposed as described below.
Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge. There is
no initial sales charge on purchases of Class A shares of
any one or more of the Tax Exempt Funds for purchases
aggregating $1 million or more. Shares of any of the
Funds that offer only one class of shares that have no
designation are considered "Class A" shares for this
purpose. The Distributor pays dealers of record
commissions on those purchases in an amount equal to the
sum of 1.0% of the first $2.5 million, plus 0.50% of the
next $2.5 million, plus 0.25% of purchases over $5
million. If you redeem any of those shares within 18
months of the end of the calendar month of their
purchase, a Class A contingent deferred sales charge
("CDSC") may be deducted from the redemption proceeds.
That sales charge will be equal to 1.0% of either (1) the
aggregate net asset value of the redeemed shares (not including
shares purchased by reinvestment of dividends or capital
gain distributions) or (2) the original cost of the
shares, whichever is less.
IN THE SECTION "SHAREHOLDER SERVICES FREE RE-ENTRY"
