Independent accountants for the Fund perform an annual audit of the Fund's

LLP, located at 233 South Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606, to be the
Fund's independent accountants, effective May 18, 2000. PricewaterhouseCoopers
LLP, located at 200 East Randolph Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60601 ("PWC"), ceased
being the Fund's independent accountants effective May 18, 2000. The cessation
of the client-auditor relationship between the Fund and PWC was based solely on
a possible future business relationship by PWC with an affiliate of the Fund's
investment adviser. The change in independent accountants was approved by the
Fund's audit committee and the Fund's Board of Trustees, including Trustees who
are not "interested persons" of the Fund (as defined in the 1940 Act).
