                       all or part of our investment advisory fees or
                       otherwise reimburse each portfolio for operating
                       expenses (including organizational expenses, but not

                       with foreign investing and extraordinary expenses) that
                       exceed an annual rate of 0.10% of its average daily net
                       assets. Such waiver or reimbursement is subject to
