EXHIBIT 77Q1(b): The board of directors approved amendments to
certain investment policies to provide that, under normal market
conditions, the fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in
preferred and other fixed income securities. The board also approved
amendments to eliminate the non-fundamental investment restriction
regarding the purchase of securities on margin. In addition, the
board of directors approved amendments to permit the fund to
write call options on up to 25% of its managed assets. Call options
would be written on both indices and securities. The fund may
write call options on "broad-based" equity indexes, as well as
on narrower market indexes, such as those in respect of select
sectors. The fund also may write options on exchange-traded funds
and other similar instruments designed to correlate with the
performance of an equity index or market segment. Finally, the
fund may write options on select sectors and single stocks.
The Fund may write listed/exchange-traded options contracts,
as well as unlisted or "over-the-counter" options contracts,
particularly with respect to options on foreign securities or
indexes.
