 OVERVIEW

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
November 20, 2000

Dear Shareholder,

The first three quarters of 2000 proved to be especially volatile, with all of
the major markets declining in the spring and spending the following months
trying to recover. To manage one's portfolio during such unpredictable times
requires investment-management experience, and the following pages should give
you some insight into how we have performed in this difficult environment.

In this report, the portfolio managers will explain how your investment
performed during the reporting period and describe the strategies they used to
manage your trust during that span. The report will also show you how your
investment has performed over time. Helpful charts summarize the trust's largest
investments, and you can examine the complete portfolio to see all of your
trust's holdings as of the end of your trust's reporting period.

                  At Van Kampen, we place a high priority on providing you and
                  your financial advisor with the information you need to help
                  you monitor your investments during all types of markets. With
                  nearly four generations of investment-management experience,
                  we've been around long enough to understand that by investing
                  with Van Kampen you're entrusting us with much more than your
money. Your investments may help make it possible to afford your next house,
keep up with rising college costs, or enjoy a comfortable retirement.

No matter what your reasons for investing, we're thankful that you've chosen to
place your investments with Van Kampen. We will continue to apply our
generations of money-management experience to helping you pursue life's true
wealth.

Sincerely,

[SIG]
Richard F. Powers, III
President and CEO
Van Kampen Investments

ECONOMIC SNAPSHOT

ECONOMIC GROWTH
ECONOMIC GROWTH REMAINED RELATIVELY STRONG DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD,
UNDERPINNED BY LOW UNEMPLOYMENT AND RISING PRODUCTIVITY, YET THERE WERE SIGNS
THAT A HEALTHY SLOWDOWN WAS UNDERWAY. GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT, THE PRIMARY
MEASURE OF ECONOMIC GROWTH, INCREASED AT A 2.4 PERCENT ANNUALIZED RATE FOR THE
THIRD QUARTER OF 2000. FOLLOWING RELATIVELY MILD FIRST- AND SECOND-QUARTER DATA,
THIS THIRD-QUARTER FIGURE OFFERS FURTHER EVIDENCE THAT GROWTH MIGHT BE SETTLING
BACK TO A MORE MODERATE AND SUSTAINABLE PACE THAN ITS RAPID RATE IN LATE 1999.

CONSUMER SPENDING AND EMPLOYMENT
CONCERNS ABOUT INFLATION REMAINED AT BAY DUE IN PART TO A GRADUAL SLOWDOWN IN
CONSUMER SPENDING. RISING INTEREST RATES, HIGHER ENERGY COSTS, AND A
DISAPPOINTING STOCK MARKET BEGAN TO TEMPER RETAIL SALES, WHICH LEVELED OFF FROM
THE BLISTERING PACE OF LATE 1999 AND EARLY 2000. AND WHILE CONSUMER SPENDING WAS
BRISK, THE OVERALL TREND HAS BEEN DOWNWARD THIS YEAR.

THE JOBLESS RATE CONTINUED TO BE EXTREMELY LOW BY HISTORICAL STANDARDS, BUT A
RECENT DECLINE IN NEW JOB CREATION SUPPORTS THE POPULAR BELIEF THAT THE ECONOMY
IS MODERATING. ALTHOUGH EMPLOYER COSTS SUCH AS WAGES AND BENEFITS WERE RISING AT
THE END OF 1999 AND THE BEGINNING OF 2000, OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS THE
EMPLOYMENT COST INDEX HAS SHOWN MARKED DECELERATION, WHICH SHOULD HELP EASE
INFLATION CONCERNS.

INTEREST RATES AND INFLATION
THE FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD (THE FED) RAISED INTEREST RATES FOUR TIMES DURING THE
LAST 12 MONTHS IN AN EFFORT TO WARD OFF INFLATION BY CURBING ECONOMIC GROWTH.
OVER THE SAME PERIOD, THE CONSUMER PRICE INDEX ROSE 3.5 PERCENT, WHICH INDICATED
THAT INFLATION GENERALLY REMAINS UNDER CONTROL.

THE FED HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THE RISK OF RISING INFLATION AND WILL STAY ON GUARD, AS
RISING ENERGY COSTS AND LOW UNEMPLOYMENT THREATEN TO PROPEL THIS FIGURE UPWARD
IN THE COMING MONTHS. AS LONG AS INFLATION IS CONTAINED AND THE PACE OF ECONOMIC
GROWTH REMAINS FAVORABLE, THE FED IS LIKELY TO HOLD INTEREST RATES STEADY IN THE
SHORT TERM, WHICH COULD HELP STABILIZE THE STOCK AND BOND MARKETS.

(1) Total return based on market price assumes an investment at the market price
at the beginning of the period indicated, reinvestment of all distributions for
the period in accordance with the Trust's dividend reinvestment plan, and sale
of all shares at the closing common stock price at the end of the period
indicated.

(2) Total return based on net asset value (NAV) assumes an investment at the
beginning of the period indicated, reinvestment of all distributions for the
period, and sale of all shares at the end of the period, all at NAV.

(3) Distribution rate represents the monthly annualized distributions of the
Trust at the end of the period and not the earnings of the Trust.

(4) The taxable-equivalent distribution rate is calculated assuming a 42%
combined federal and state tax bracket, which takes into consideration the
deductibility of individual state taxes paid.

(5) See "Notes to Financial Statements" footnote #5, for more information
concerning Preferred Share reset periods.

A portion of the interest income may be taxable for those investors subject to
the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT).

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return, stock
price and net asset value will fluctuate with market conditions. Trust shares,
when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Q&A WITH YOUR PORTFOLIO MANAGERS
WE RECENTLY SPOKE WITH THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER OF THE VAN KAMPEN CALIFORNIA
QUALITY MUNICIPAL TRUST ABOUT THE KEY EVENTS AND ECONOMIC FORCES THAT SHAPED THE
MARKETS AND INFLUENCED THE TRUST'S RETURN DURING THE 12 MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31,
2000. JOSEPH A. PIRARO, PORTFOLIO MANAGER, HAS MANAGED THE TRUST SINCE MAY 1992
AND HAS WORKED IN THE INVESTMENT INDUSTRY SINCE 1971. THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION
REFLECTS HIS VIEWS ON THE TRUST'S PERFORMANCE.

Q   WHAT WERE THE MOST IMPORTANT
    DEVELOPMENTS IN THE FIXED-INCOME MARKETS AND HOW DID THE TRUST PERFORM
    DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD?

A   The key factor in the market's
behavior during the past fiscal year has been generally rising interest rates,
especially at the short end of the maturity spectrum. This rate environment
stemmed from the Federal Reserve Board's commitment to keeping inflation in
check by ratcheting up short-term interest rates whenever the economy threatened
to overheat and push the prices of goods and services higher. In fact, the Fed
increased short-term rates four times during the reporting period, with the last
hike occurring in May 2000.

    The strength of the economy, and the accompanying Federal Reserve activity,
caused interest rates to rise across the board for the first half of the
reporting period. In the spring of 2000, the bond market rallied as investors
began to anticipate an end to the Fed's rate-tightening cycle. By the end of
October, short-term rates remained high, but rates in the intermediate to long
maturity segments of the market had actually declined from the levels we had
seen at the start of the reporting period.

    Because the trust is leveraged, higher short-term rates placed pressure on
the trust's dividend, as the increased cost of borrowing cut into the fund's
earnings. However, the relatively high long-term rates that prevailed for part
of the reporting period allowed the trust to add new holdings at attractive
yields, partially offsetting the decline in income that occurred as short-term
rates climbed.

    After the steady increase in short-term interest rates over the past year,
we have seen a more stable environment in recent months, as the Fed has reacted
to slower economic growth, more efficient workforce output, and moderate price
gains by keeping target lending rates unchanged. The inflation rate, as measured
by the consumer price index, peaked in March 2000 at 3.8 percent and has since
dropped back below the 3 percent level.

    At the state level, California's economic growth continues to outpace that
of the nation in terms of employment and income growth. Personal income growth
was a strong 7.4 percent in 1999 and is expected to grow 6.7 percent in 2000.
Non-farm employment grew 3.2 percent in the first half of the year, driven by
solid increases in the business service and construction sectors.

    Supply in the California municipal market was sharply lower from the levels
of a year ago, as higher interest rates have made it unattractive for
municipalities to retire existing debt. At the same time, strong economic
activity has allowed many municipalities to generate a budget surplus, enabling
them to cover spending that would normally require municipal bond financing. In
the state budget, for example, revenues were running nearly $900 million over
projections. Still, California remained the leading issuer of municipal debt
through September 2000, even though issuance was down 18.5 percent from last
year, to $17.6 billion.

    Because demand has remained strong, the lack of new issuance in the primary
market helped support bond prices, although the somewhat limited selection of
available securities required us to be very selective in choosing new bonds for
the trust's portfolio. In many cases, we found attractive values in the
secondary market, buying and selling bonds that have been in the market for a
while.

    The trust continued to provide shareholders with an attractive level of
income. Its monthly dividend of $0.0735 per share translates to a distribution
rate of 5.88 percent based on the trust's closing market price on October 31,
2000. Because income from the trust is exempt from federal and state income
taxes, this distribution rate is equivalent to a yield of 10.14 percent for an
investor in the 42 percent combined federal and state income tax bracket.

    For the 12 months through October 31, 2000, the trust produced a total
return of 4.70 percent based on market price. At the same time, the trust's
market price decreased from $15.2500 per share on October 31, 1999, to $15.0000
per share on October 31, 2000. Of course, past performance is no guarantee of
future results. As a result of recent market activity, current performance may
vary from the figures shown. By comparison, the Lehman Brothers California
Municipal Bond Index posted a total return of 9.20 percent for the same period.
This broad-based, unmanaged index, which reflects the general performance of
California municipal securities, does not reflect any commissions or fees that
would be paid by an investor purchasing the securities it represents. Such costs
would lower the performance of the index. It is not possible to invest directly
in an index. For additional performance results, please refer to the chart and
footnotes on page 4.

Q   HOW DID YOU REACT TO THE
    MARKET CONDITIONS YOU ENCOUNTERED IN MANAGING THE TRUST?

A   Much of the activity in the trust's
portfolio during the reporting period was guided by a strategic direction we

                                        8
<PAGE>   10

adopted early in 2000 and have gradually implemented since then. It was our goal
to lengthen the duration of the portfolio (a measure of its sensitivity to
changes in interest rates) so that it more closely mirrored the benchmark
indicators we use to gauge the trust's performance. At the time, we felt the
market had solid upside potential, and a longer duration would allow the trust
to more fully participate in the gains of the market if it rallied over time.

    As we began implementing this strategy, we caught the market at a good time.
Early in the year, the market presented us with attractive yields on
long-duration securities, particularly those priced at deep discounts. We
purchased some of these bonds and sold prerefunded securities and bonds with
short calls--many of which were scheduled to be called or refunded within the
next year or two. In effect, this strategy helped capture additional par value
and the potential for capital appreciation, all while achieving the desired
effect of extending the portfolio's duration. This strategy was a positive in
terms of the trust's performance, especially during the market rally that
occurred in the second and third quarters of 2000.

Q   HOW DID THIS STRATEGY AFFECT THE
    COMPOSITION OF THE PORTFOLIO?

A   A by-product of this market
activity--and the trust's positioning within the market--was an increase in the
overall credit quality of the portfolio. Typically, the rallies were strongest
at the high end of the quality spectrum, so these securities saw solid price
gains while the valuations of nonrated and lower-rated securities, such as those
rated BBB or lower, remained fairly flat or declined. On the whole, however, the
nonrated and lower-rated securities of California issuers tended to trade
stronger than the nonrated and lower-rated securities of other state issuers.

    Over the course of the reporting period, the portfolio composition came to
reflect this trend, as the trust's allocation to securities rated AAA or AA
decreased to 62.8 percent of long-term investments (down from 64.7 percent at
the start of the period). In general, our bias toward high-quality securities
was a boost to portfolio performance, but we have enough confidence in our
research capabilities to carry a significant amount of assets in the nonrated
and lower-rated sectors. The trust's allocation to these rating categories
combined was approximately 20 percent of long-term investments.

    The trust remained well diversified by industry sector and issuer, with the
portfolio retaining a similar overall composition throughout the reporting
period. We did initiate a few transactions for tax purposes, seeking to offset
taxable gains for shareholders, though we anticipate that later this year the
trust may pay out some of the capital gains it realized by selling prerefunded
securities earlier in 2000.

Q   WHAT DO YOU SEE AHEAD FOR
    THE ECONOMY AND THE MUNICIPAL MARKET?

A   The outlook for the municipal
bond market will be closely tied to the prospects of the U.S. economy and the
Fed's reaction to key economic indicators. While interest rates have been fairly
steady of late, the Fed's next move will be based on whether inflation shows
signs of heating up. We believe inflation appears to be under control at this
time, but the Fed will be watching economic growth statistics, the labor market,
and the prices of key commodities, such as crude oil, for signs of inflationary
pressures.

    Clearly, the direction of interest rates will be determined by the Fed's
reaction to inflationary signals, so we feel it would be imprudent to make a bet
on the direction of interest rates in terms of how we position the trust.
Consequently, we will seek to maintain a neutral stance with respect to the
portfolio's duration in the near term.

    We believe the demand for municipal securities should remain healthy. This
will hopefully bode well for the trust, although it will be competing with a
range of investment options, such as individual bonds, mutual funds, and managed
accounts, for investor assets. Also, the stock market may continue to attract
assets away from bonds, depending on its return prospects and price volatility.

    Bond supply should remain tight, helping to support prices, as
municipalities continue to operate with budget surpluses that can be used for
construction projects, education funding, road improvements, and other
expenditures typically financed by new bond issuance. In September, the state's
general obligation ratings were upgraded to Aa2 by Moody's Investors Service and
to AA by Standard & Poor's Ratings Group. The credit outlook for state and local
government bonds remains positive due to improved fiscal positions, increases in
reserves, and a broad-based expansion in a state economy that is well
diversified, both by region and by sector.

    We will continue to search for securities that have the potential to enhance
the trust's long-term performance. If our analysis indicates that it would be
advantageous to sell certain bonds--or as bonds are prerefunded, mature
according to schedule, or are called from the portfolio--we will strive to
replace them with bonds that offer the best relative value available at the
time.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS

A HELPFUL GUIDE TO SOME OF THE COMMON TERMS YOU'RE LIKELY TO SEE IN THIS REPORT
AND OTHER FINANCIAL PUBLICATIONS.

CALL FEATURE: Allows a bond issuer to buy back a bond on specific dates at set
prices before the bond's maturity date. These dates and prices are set when the
bond is issued. To compensate the bondholder for the potential loss of income
and ownership, a bond's call price is usually higher than the face value of the
bond. Bonds are usually called when interest rates drop so significantly that
the issuer can save money by issuing new bonds at lower rates.

DISCOUNT BOND: A bond whose market price is lower than its face value (or "par
value"). Because bonds usually mature at face value, a discount bond has more
potential to appreciate in price than a par bond does.

DURATION: A measure of the sensitivity of a bond's price to changes in interest
rates, expressed in years. Each year of duration represents an expected 1
percent change in the price of a bond for every 1 percent change in interest
rates. The longer a bond's duration, the greater the effect of interest-rate
movements on its price. Typically, funds with shorter durations perform better
in rising-rate environments, while funds with longer durations perform better
when rates decline.

MATURITY LENGTH: The time it takes for a bond to mature. A bond issued in 1999
and maturing in 2009 is a 10-year bond. Typically, short-term bonds mature in
five years or less, intermediate-term bonds mature in five to ten years, and
long-term bonds mature after ten years.

PREREFUNDING: The process of issuing new bonds to refinance an outstanding bond
issue prior to its maturity or call date. The proceeds from the new bonds are
generally invested in U.S. government securities. Prerefunding typically occurs
when interest rates decline and an issuer replaces its higher-yielding bonds
with current lower-yielding issues.

SECONDARY MARKET: A market where securities are traded after they are initially
offered.

YIELD SPREAD: The additional yield investors can earn by either investing in
bonds with longer maturities or by investing in bonds with lower credit ratings.
The spread is the difference in yield between bonds with short versus long
maturities or the difference in yield between high-quality bonds and lower-
quality bonds.

YOUR TRUST'S INVESTMENTS

October 31, 2000

 * Zero coupon bond

(a) Security is currently a zero coupon bond which will convert to a coupon
    paying bond at a predetermined date.

(b) An Inverse Floating security is one where the coupon is inversely indexed to
    a short-term floating interest rate multiplied by a specific factor. As the
    floating rate rises, the coupon is reduced. Conversely, as the floating rate
    declines, the coupon is increased. These instruments are typically used by
    the Trust to enhance the yield of the portfolio. The price of this security
    may be more volatile than the price of a comparable fixed rate security. All
    of the Trust's portfolio holdings, including derivative instruments, are
    marked to market each day with the change in value reflected in the
    unrealized appreciation/ depreciation. Upon disposition, a realized gain or
    loss is recognized accordingly.

(c) 144A securities are those which are exempt from registration under Rule 144A
    of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These securities may be resold
    only in transactions exempt from registration which are normally those
    transactions with qualified institutional buyers.

NOTES TO
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

October 31, 2000

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Van Kampen California Quality Municipal Trust (the "Trust") is registered as a
diversified closed-end management investment company under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Trust's investment objective is to provide
a high level of current income exempt from federal and California income taxes
consistent with preservation of capital. The Trust will invest in a portfolio
consisting substantially of California municipal obligations rated investment
grade at the time of investment, but may invest up to 20% of its assets in
unrated securities which are believed to be of comparable quality to those rated
investment grade. The Trust commenced investment operations on September 27,
1991.

    The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

A. SECURITY VALUATION Municipal bonds are valued by independent pricing services
or dealers using the mean of the bid and asked prices or, in the absence of
market quotations, at fair value based upon yield data relating to municipal
bonds with similar characteristics and general market conditions. Securities
which are not valued by independent pricing services are valued at fair value
using procedures established in good faith by the Board of Trustees. Short-term
securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized
cost, which approximates market value.

B. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS Security transactions are recorded on a trade date
basis. Realized gains and losses are determined on an identified cost basis. The
Trust may purchase and sell securities on a "when-issued" or "delayed delivery"
basis, with settlement to occur at a later date. The value of the security so
purchased is subject to market fluctuations during this period. The Trust will
maintain, in a segregated account with its custodian, assets having an aggregate
value at least equal to the amount of the when-issued or delayed delivery
purchase commitments until payment is made. At October 31, 2000, there were no
when-issued or delayed delivery purchase commitments.

C. INVESTMENT INCOME Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Bond
premium is amortized and original issue discount is accreted over the expected
life of each applicable security.

October 31, 2000

D. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES It is the Trust's policy to comply with the requirements
of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders.
Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

    At October 31, 2000, for federal income tax purposes cost of long- and
short-term investments is $217,118,378; the aggregate gross unrealized
appreciation is $16,099,740 and the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation is
$876,252, resulting in net unrealized appreciation on long- and short-term
investments of $15,223,488.

E. DISTRIBUTION OF INCOME AND GAINS The Trust declares and pays monthly
dividends from net investment income to common shareholders. Net realized gains,
if any, are distributed annually on a pro rata basis to common and preferred
shareholders. Distributions from net realized gains for book purposes may
include short-term capital gains, which are included as ordinary income for tax
purposes.

F. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS During the year ended October 31, 2000, the Trust's
custody fee was reduced by $882 as a result of credits earned on overnight cash
balances.

2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND
OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Under the terms of the Trust's Investment Advisory Agreement, Van Kampen
Investment Advisory Corp. (the "Adviser") will provide investment advice and
facilities to the Trust for an annual fee payable monthly of .70% of the average
net assets of the Trust. In addition, the Trust will pay a monthly
administrative fee to Van Kampen Funds Inc. or its affiliates (collectively "Van
Kampen"), the Trust's Administrator, at an annual rate of .20% of the average
net assets of the Trust. The administrative services provided by the
Administrator include record keeping and reporting responsibilities with respect
to the Trust's portfolio and preferred shares and providing certain services to
shareholders.

    For the year ended October 31, 2000 the Fund recognized expenses of
approximately $3,600 representing legal services provided by Skadden, Arps,
Slate, Meagher & Flom (Illinois), counsel to the Trust, of which a trustee of
the Trust is an affiliated person.

    Under separate Accounting Services and Legal Services agreements, the
Adviser provides accounting and legal services to the Trust. The Adviser
allocates the cost of such services to each Trust. For the year ended October
31, 2000, the Trust recognized expenses of approximately $25,500 representing
Van Kampen's cost of providing accounting and legal services to the Trust, which
are reported as part of other and legal expenses, respectively, in the statement
of operations.

trustees who are not officers of Van Kampen. Under the deferred compensation
plan, trustees may elect to defer all or a portion of their compensation to a
later date. Benefits under the retirement plan are payable for a ten-year period
and are based upon each trustee's years of service to the Trust. The maximum
annual benefit per trustee under the plan is $2,500.

4. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

During the period, the cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investments,
excluding short-term investments, were $46,211,956 and $54,276,517,
respectively.

5. PREFERRED SHARES

As of October 31, 2000, the Trust has outstanding 3,000 shares of Auction
Preferred Shares ("APS"). Dividends are cumulative and the rate is reset through
an auction process every 28 days. The rate in effect on October 31, 2000, was
3.500% and for the year then ended rates ranged from 2.875% to 4.399%.

    The Trust pays annual fees equivalent to .25% of the preferred share
liquidation value for the remarketing efforts associated with the preferred
auctions. These fees are included as a component of Preferred Share Maintenance
expense.

    The APS are redeemable at the option of the Trust in whole or in part at the
liquidation value of $25,000 per share plus accumulated and unpaid dividends.
The Trust is subject to certain asset coverage tests, and the APS are subject to
mandatory redemptions if the tests are not met.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Van Kampen California Quality
Municipal Trust

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Van
Kampen California Quality Municipal Trust ("Trust"), including the portfolio of
investments, as of October 31, 2000, and the related statements of operations,
changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the year then ended.
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of
the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audit. The Trust's
financial statements and financial highlights for the periods ended prior to
October 31, 2000 were audited by other auditors whose report, dated December 9,
1999, expressed an
unqualified opinion on those statements.

    We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of October 31, 2000, by correspondence with the Trust's
custodian. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

    In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Van
Kampen California Quality Municipal Trust as of October 31, 2000, the results of
its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for
the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.

DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN

    The Trust offers a dividend reinvestment plan (the "Plan") pursuant to which
Common Shareholders may elect to have dividends and capital gains distributions
reinvested in Common Shares of the Trust. The Trust declares dividends out of
net investment income, and will distribute annually net realized capital gains,
if any. Common Shareholders may join or withdraw from the Plan at any time.

    If you decide to participate in the Plan, State Street Bank and Trust
Company, as your Plan Agent, will automatically invest your dividends and
capital gains distributions in Common Shares of the Trust for your account.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE

    If you wish to participate and your shares are held in your own name, call
1-800-341-2929 for more information and a Plan brochure. If your shares are held
in the name of a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee, you should contact your
nominee to see if it would participate in the Plan on your behalf. If you wish
to participate in the Plan, but your brokerage firm, bank or nominee is unable
to participate on your behalf, you should request that your shares be
re-registered in your own name which will enable your participation in the Plan.

HOW THE PLAN WORKS

    Participants in the Plan will receive the equivalent in Common Shares valued
on the valuation date, generally at the lower of market price or net asset
value, except as specified below. The valuation date will be the dividend or
distribution payment date or, if that date is not a trading day on the national
securities exchange or market system on which the Common Shares are listed for
trading, the next preceding trading day. If the market price per Common Share on
the valuation date equals or exceeds net asset value per Common Share on that
date, the Trust will issue new Common Shares to participants valued at the
higher of net asset value or 95% of the market price on the valuation date. In
the foregoing situation, the Trust will not issue Common Shares under the Plan
below net asset value. If net asset value per Common Share on the valuation date
exceeds the market price per Common Share on that date, or if the Board of
Trustees should declare a dividend or capital gains distribution payable to the
Common Shareholders only in cash, participants in the Plan will be deemed to
have elected to receive Common Shares from the Trust valued at the market price
on that date. Accordingly, in this circumstance, the Plan Agent will, as agent
for the participants, buy the Trust's Common Shares in the open market for the
participants' accounts on or shortly after the payment date. If, before the Plan
Agent has completed its purchases, the market price exceeds the net asset value
per share of the Common Shares, the average per share purchase price paid by the
Plan Agent may exceed the net asset value of the Trust's Common Shares,
resulting in

                                       30
<PAGE>   32

the acquisition of fewer Common Shares than if the dividend or distribution had
been paid in Common Shares issued by the Trust. All reinvestments are in full
and fractional Common Shares and are carried to three decimal places.

    Experience under the Plan may indicate that changes are desirable.
Accordingly, the Trust reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan as
applied to any dividend or distribution paid subsequent to written notice of the
changes sent to all Common Shareholders of the Trust at least 90 days before the
record date for the dividend or distribution. The Plan also may be amended or
terminated by the Plan Agent by at least 90 days written notice to all Common
Shareholders of the Trust.

COSTS OF THE PLAN

    The Plan Agent's fees for the handling of the reinvestment of dividends and
distributions will be paid by the Trust. However, each participant will pay a
prorata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Plan Agent's
open market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of dividends and
distributions. No other charges will be made to participants for reinvesting
dividends or capital gains distributions, except for certain brokerage
commissions, as described above.

TAX IMPLICATIONS

    You will receive tax information annually for your personal records and to
help you prepare your federal income tax return. The automatic reinvestment of
dividends and capital gains distributions does not relieve you of any income tax
which may be payable on dividends or distributions.

RIGHT TO WITHDRAW

    Plan participants may withdraw at any time by calling 1-800-341-2929 or by
writing State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8200, Boston, MA
02266-8200. If you withdraw, you will receive, without charge, a share
certificate issued in your name for all full Common Shares credited to your
account under the Plan and a cash payment will be made for any fractional Common
Share credited to your account under the Plan. You may again elect to
participate in the Plan at any time by calling 1-800-341-2929 or writing to the
Trust at:

 For Federal Income tax purposes, the following information is furnished with
 respect to the distributions paid by the Trust during its taxable year ended
 October 31, 2000. The Trust designated 100% of the income distributions as a
 tax-exempt income distribution. In January, 2001, the Trust will provide tax
 information to shareholders for the 2000 calendar year.

(1) Independent auditors for the Trust perform an annual audit of the Trust's
financial statements. The Board of Trustees has engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP to
be the Trust's independent auditors.

KPMG LLP, located at 303 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, IL 60601 ("KPMG"), ceased
being the Trust's independent accountants effective April 14, 2000. The
cessation of the client- auditor relationship between the Trust and KPMG was
based solely on a possible future business relationship by KPMG with an
affiliate of the Trust's investment adviser.
