Item 27. Indemnification
---------------
Under a provision of the Registrant's Second Amended and Restated
Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the "Declaration of Trust"), any past
or present Trustee or officer of the Registrant is indemnified to the
fullest extent permitted by law against liability and all expenses
reasonably incurred by him/her in connection with any action, suit or
proceeding to which he/she may be a party or otherwise involved by reason
of his/her being or having been a Trustee or officer of the Registrant.
This provision does not authorize indemnification against any
liability to the Registrant or its shareholders to which such Trustee or
officer would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of his/her duties. Moreover,
this provision does not authorize indemnification where such Trustee or
officer is finally adjudicated not to have acted in good faith in the
reasonable belief that his/her actions were in or not opposed to the best
interests of the Registrant. Expenses may be paid by the Registrant in
advance of the final disposition of any action, suit or proceeding upon
receipt of an undertaking by such Trustee or officer to repay such expenses
to the Registrant if it is ultimately determined that indemnification of
such expenses is not authorized under the Declaration of Trust.

provided under the Distribution Plan, the services offered to shareholders

and the Fund's Distributor for shareholder servicing activities and for

same may be named) of other funds managed or administered by Dreyfus
(except Dreyfus Core Vale Fund); (c) Class A shares (however the same may

or more, which are not subject to an initial sales charge at the time of
purchase); (d) Class B or Class C shares (however the same may be named)
of other funds managed or administered by Dreyfus; (e) shares of funds

Contingent Deferred Sales Charge--Class A Shares--A CDSC of 1% shall be
assessed at the time of redemption of Class A shares purchased without an
initial sales charge as part of an investment of at least $1,000,000 and
redeemed within one year after purchase. The terms contained in Schedule
C pertaining to the CDSC assessed on redemptions of Class B shares (other
than the amount of the CDSC and its time periods), including the
provisions for waiving the CDSC, shall be applicable to the Class A shares
subject to a CDSC. Letter of Intent and Right of Accumulation shall apply
to such purchases of Class A shares.
SCHEDULE B
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge--Class B Shares--A CDSC payable to the
Fund's Distributor shall be imposed on any redemption of Class B shares
which reduces the current net asset value of such Class B shares to an
amount which is lower than the dollar amount of all payments by the
redeeming shareholder for the purchase of Class B shares of the Fund held
by such shareholder at the time of redemption. No CDSC shall be imposed
to the extent that the net asset value of the Class B shares redeemed does
not exceed (i) the current net asset value of Class B shares acquired
through reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions, plus (ii)
increases in the net asset value of the shareholder's Class B shares above
the dollar amount of all payments for the purchase of Class B shares of
the Fund held by such shareholder at the time of redemption.
If the aggregate value of the Class B shares redeemed has declined
below their original cost as a result of the Fund's performance, a CDSC
may be applied to the then-current net asset value rather than the
purchase price.
In circumstances where the CDSC is imposed, the amount of the charge
shall depend on the number of years from the time the shareholder
purchased the Class B shares until the time of redemption of such shares.
Solely for purposes of determining the number of years from the time of
any payment for the purchase of Class B shares, all payments during a
month shall be aggregated and deemed to have been made on the first day of
the month. The following table sets forth the rates of the CDSC:
CDSC as a % of
Year Since Amount Invested

Fifth. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.00
Sixth. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.00
In determining whether a CDSC is applicable to a redemption, the
calculation shall be made in a manner that results in the lowest possible
rate. Therefore, it shall be assumed that the redemption is made first of
amounts representing shares acquired pursuant to the reinvestment of
dividends and distributions; then of amounts representing the increase in
net asset value of Class B shares above the total amount of payments for
the purchase of Class B shares made during the preceding five years; then
of amounts representing the cost of shares purchased five years prior to
the redemption; and finally, of amounts representing the cost of shares
held for the longest period of time within the applicable five-year
period.
Waiver of CDSC--The CDSC shall be waived in connection with (a)
redemptions made within one year after the death or disability, as defined
in Section 72(m)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"), of the shareholder, (b) redemptions by employees participating in
qualified or non-qualified employee benefit plans or other programs where
(i) the employers or affiliated employers maintaining such plans or
programs have a minimum of 250 employees eligible for participation in
such plans or programs, or (ii) such plan's or program's aggregate
investment in the Dreyfus Family of Funds or certain other products made
available by the Fund's Distributor exceeds one million dollars, (c)
redemptions as a result of a combination of any investment company with
the Fund by merger, acquisition of assets or otherwise, and (d) a
distribution following retirement under a tax-deferred retirement plan or
upon attaining age 70-1/2 in the case of an IRA or Keogh plan or custodial
account pursuant to Section 403(b) of the Code. Any Fund shares subject
to a CDSC which were purchased prior to the termination of such waiver
shall have the CDSC waived as provided in the Fund's prospectus at the
time of the purchase of such shares.
SCHEDULE C
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge--Class C Shares--A CDSC of .75% payable
to the Fund's Distributor shall be imposed on any redemption of Class C
shares within one year of the date of purchase. The basis for calculating
the payment of any such CDSC shall be the method used in calculating the
CDSC for Class B shares. In addition, the provisions for waiving the CDSC
shall be those set forth for Class B shares.
SCHEDULE D
Conversion of Class B Shares--Class B shares shall automatically convert
to Class A shares on the first Fund business day of the month in which the
sixth anniversary of the date of purchase occurs (unless otherwise
specified by the Board), based on the relative net asset values for shares
of each such Class, and shall be subject to the Distribution Plan for
Class A shares but shall no longer be subject to the Distribution Plan and
Service Plan applicable to Class B shares. (Such conversion is subject to
suspension by the Board members if adverse tax consequences might result.)
At that time, Class B shares that have been acquired through the
reinvestment of dividends and distributions ("Dividend Shares") shall be
converted in the proportion that a shareholder's Class B shares (other
than Dividend Shares) converting to Class A shares bears to the total
Class B shares then held by the shareholder which were not acquired
through the reinvestment of dividends and distributions.

Contingent Deferred Sales Charge--Class A Shares--A CDSC of 1% shall be
assessed at the time of redemption of Class A shares purchased without an
initial sales charge as part of an investment of at least $1,000,000 and
redeemed within one year after purchase. The terms contained in Schedule
C pertaining to the CDSC assessed on redemptions of Class B shares (other
than the amount of the CDSC and its time periods), including the
provisions for waiving the CDSC, shall be applicable to the Class A shares
subject to a CDSC. Letter of Intent and Right of Accumulation shall apply
to such purchases of Class A shares.
SCHEDULE B
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge--Class B Shares--A CDSC payable to the
Fund's Distributor shall be imposed on any redemption of Class B shares
which reduces the current net asset value of such Class B shares to an
amount which is lower than the dollar amount of all payments by the
redeeming shareholder for the purchase of Class B shares of the Fund held
by such shareholder at the time of redemption. No CDSC shall be imposed
to the extent that the net asset value of the Class B shares redeemed does
not exceed (i) the current net asset value of Class B shares acquired
through reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions, plus (ii)
increases in the net asset value of the shareholder's Class B shares above
the dollar amount of all payments for the purchase of Class B shares of
the Fund held by such shareholder at the time of redemption.
If the aggregate value of the Class B shares redeemed has
declined below their original cost as a result of the Fund's performance,
a CDSC may be applied to the then-current net asset value rather than the
purchase price.
In circumstances where the CDSC is imposed, the amount of the
charge shall depend on the number of years from the time the shareholder
purchased the Class B shares until the time of redemption of such shares.
Solely for purposes of determining the number of years from the time of
any payment for the purchase of Class B shares, all payments during a
month shall be aggregated and deemed to have been made on the first day of
the month. The following table sets forth the rates of the CDSC:

In determining whether a CDSC is applicable to a redemption, the
calculation shall be made in a manner that results in the lowest possible
rate. Therefore, it shall be assumed that the redemption is made first of
amounts representing shares acquired pursuant to the reinvestment of
dividends and distributions; then of amounts representing the increase in
net asset value of Class B shares above the total amount of payments for
the purchase of Class B shares made during the preceding six years; then
of amounts representing the cost of shares purchased six years prior to
the redemption; and finally, of amounts representing the cost of shares
held for the longest period of time within the applicable six-year period.
Waiver of CDSC--The CDSC shall be waived in connection with (a)
redemptions made within one year after the death or disability, as defined
in Section 72(m)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"), of the shareholder, (b) redemptions by employees participating in
qualified or non-qualified employee benefit plans or other programs where
(i) the employers or affiliated employers maintaining such plans or
programs have a minimum of 250 employees eligible for participation in
such plans or programs, or (ii) such plan's or program's aggregate
investment in the Dreyfus Family of Funds or certain other products made
available by the Fund's Distributor exceeds one million dollars, (c)
redemptions as a result of a combination of any investment company with
the Fund by merger, acquisition of assets or otherwise, and (d) a
distribution following retirement under a tax-deferred retirement plan or
upon attaining age 70-1/2 in the case of an IRA or Keogh plan or custodial
account pursuant to Section 403(b) of the Code. Any Fund shares subject
to a CDSC which were purchased prior to the termination of such waiver
shall have the CDSC waived as provided in the Fund's prospectus at the
time of the purchase of such shares.
SCHEDULE C
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge--Class C Shares--A CDSC of 1.00% payable
to the Fund's Distributor shall be imposed on any redemption of Class C
shares within one year of the date of purchase. The basis for calculating
the payment of any such CDSC shall be the method used in calculating the
CDSC for Class B shares. In addition, the provisions for waiving the CDSC
shall be those set forth for Class B shares.
SCHEDULE D
Conversion of Class B Shares--Class B shares shall automatically convert
to Class A shares on the first Fund business day of the month in which the
sixth anniversary of the date of purchase occurs (unless otherwise
specified by the Board), based on the relative net asset values for shares
of each such Class, and shall be subject to the Distribution Plan for
Class A shares but shall no longer be subject to the Distribution Plan and
Service Plan applicable to Class B shares. (Such conversion is subject to
suspension by the Board members if adverse tax consequences might result.)
At that time, Class B shares that have been acquired through the
reinvestment of dividends and distributions ("Dividend Shares") shall be
converted in the proportion that a shareholder's Class B shares (other
than Dividend Shares) converting to Class A shares bears to the total
Class B shares then held by the shareholder which were not acquired
through the reinvestment of dividends and distributions.
