Change in Independent Auditor
(unaudited)

Based on the  recommendation  of the Audit  Committee of the Fund,  the Board of
Trustees  has  determined  not to retain  Deloitte  & Touche  LLP as the  Fund's
registered  public  accounting firm and voted to appoint  PricewaterhouseCoopers
LLP for the fiscal  year ended  October  31,  2006.  During the two most  recent
fiscal years, Deloitte & Touche LLP's audit reports contained no adverse opinion
or disclaimer of opinion;  nor were their reports  qualified as to  uncertainty,
audit  scope or  accounting  principles.  Further,  there were no  disagreements
between the Fund and Deloitte & Touche LLP on accounting  principles,  financial
statements disclosures or audit scope, which if not resolved to the satisfaction
of  Deloitte & Touche  LLP,  would have  caused  them to make  reference  to the
disagreement in their reports.
