business at the Meeting, a stockholder who properly authorizes a proxy but instructs the proxy holder to &#147;abstain&#148; or &#147;withhold authority&#148; will be treated as present for determining the presence of a quorum. </P>

stockholders of the Fund entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. Each share of stock entitles the holder of the share as of the Record Date to cast one vote for as many individuals as there are
Directors to be elected and for whose election the share is entitled to be voted and a fractional vote with respect to fractional shares, with no cumulative voting rights. At the Record Date, the Fund had 40,923,879 shares of Common Stock, par value

elections will determine whether or not a quorum is present at the Meeting. A stockholder who properly executes a proxy but instructs the proxy holder to &#147;abstain&#148; or &#147;withhold authority,&#148; or who is present at the Meeting in
person but who abstains from voting on any matter, and &#147;broker non-votes&#148; (<I>i.e.</I>, shares held by brokers or nominees, typically in &#147;street name,&#148; as to which proxies have been returned but (a)&nbsp;instructions have not

their customers and clients will request the instructions of such customers and clients on how to vote their shares on each Proposal before the Meeting. A signed voting instruction card or other authorization by a beneficial owner of Fund shares
that does not specify how the beneficial owner&#146;s shares should be voted will be deemed an instruction to vote such shares in favor of the election of each nominee listed in Proposal No.&nbsp;1. </P>

record holder of your shares. At the Meeting, a service agent will vote shares for which it receives instructions from its customers in accordance with those instructions. A signed proxy card or other authorization by a stockholder that does not
specify how the stockholder&#146;s shares should be voted on a proposal may be deemed to authorize a service agent to vote such shares in favor of the election of each nominee listed in Proposal No.&nbsp;1. Depending on its policies, applicable law
or contractual or other restrictions, a service agent may be permitted to vote shares with respect to which it has not received specific voting instructions from its customers. In those cases, the service agent may, but may not be required to, vote
such shares in the same proportion as those shares for which the service agent has received voting instructions. This practice is commonly referred to as &#147;echo voting.&#148; </P>

may move for one or more adjournments of the Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies with respect to such proposal. In determining whether to adjourn the Meeting, the following factors may be considered: the nature of the proposal that is
the subject of the Meeting, the percentage of the stockholders present at the Meeting in person or by proxy, the nature of any further solicitation and the information to be provided to stockholders with respect to the reasons for the solicitation.
Approval of any motion to adjourn the Meeting brought before the Fund&#146;s stockholders will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on such matter at the Meeting. If an adjournment is properly brought before the Meeting, the

processes. The Audit Committee is responsible for pre-approving all audit services and any permitted non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm directly to the Fund. The Audit Committee is also responsible
for pre-approving permitted services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to (1)&nbsp;the Manager and (2)&nbsp;any entity in a control relationship with the Manager that provides ongoing services to the Fund, provided
that the engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm relates directly to the operation and financial reporting of the Fund. The scope of the Audit Committee&#146;s responsibilities is oversight. It is management&#146;s
responsibility to maintain appropriate systems for accounting and internal control and the independent registered public accounting firm&#146;s responsibility to plan and carry out an audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company

for oversight of the Fund. The Fund has engaged the Manager to manage the Fund on a day-to-day basis. The Board oversees the Manager and certain other principal service providers in the operations of the Fund. The Board is currently composed of ten
members, seven of whom are Independent Directors. The Board meets in-person at regularly scheduled meetings four times throughout the year. In addition, the Directors may meet in-person or by telephone at special meetings or on an informal basis at
other times. As described above, the Board has established three standing committees &#151; Audit, Nominating and Governance, and Dryden Investment Committee &#151; and may establish ad hoc committees or working groups from time to time to assist
the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities. The Independent Directors have also engaged independent legal counsel to assist them in fulfilling their responsibilities. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Board is chaired by an Independent Director. As Chair, this Independent Director leads the Board in its activities. Also the Chair acts as
a member or as an ex-officio member of each standing committee and any ad hoc committee of the Board. The Directors have determined that the Board&#146;s leadership and committee structure is appropriate because the Board believes it sets the proper
tone to the relationships between the Fund, on the one hand, and the Manager, the subadviser(s) and certain other principal service providers, on the other hand, and facilitates the exercise of the Board&#146;s independent judgment in evaluating and
managing the relationships. In addition, the structure efficiently allocates responsibility among committees. During the fiscal year ended July&nbsp;31, 2015, the Board met ten times. Each Director then a Board Member attended all of the meetings of
the Board and the committees of which he or she was a member. The Fund does not have a policy regarding the Directors&#146; attendance at annual meetings of stockholders, and no Directors attended the Fund&#146;s annual meeting of stockholders held
in March 2015. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Board has concluded that, based on each Director&#146;s experience, qualifications, attributes or skills on an
individual basis and in combination with those of the other Directors, each Director should serve as a Director. Among other attributes common to all Directors are their ability to review critically, evaluate, question and discuss information
provided to them, to interact effectively with the various service providers to the Fund, and to exercise reasonable business judgment in the performance of their duties as Directors. In addition, the Board has taken into account the actual service
and commitment of the Directors during their tenure in concluding that each should continue to serve. A Director&#146;s ability to perform his or her duties effectively may have been attained through a Director&#146;s educational background or
professional training; business, consulting, public service or academic positions; experience from service as a Director of the Fund, other funds in the Fund Complex, public companies, or non-profit entities or other organizations; or other
experiences. Set forth below is a brief discussion of the specific experience, qualifications, attributes or skills of each Director that led the Board to conclude that he or she should serve as a Director. </P>

experience as a senior executive in the mutual fund industry. Ms.&nbsp;Bynoe has been a Board Member of the Fund and other funds in the Fund Complex since 2005, having served on the boards of other mutual fund complexes since 1993. She has worked in

investment risk, compliance risk and operational risk, among others. The Board oversees risk as part of its oversight of the Fund. Risk oversight is addressed as part of various regular Board and committee activities. The Board, directly or through
its committees, reviews reports from, among others, the Manager, subadvisers, the Fund&#146;s Chief Compliance Officer, the Fund&#146;s independent registered public accounting firm, counsel, and internal auditors of the Manager or its affiliates,
as appropriate, regarding risks faced by the Fund and the risk management programs of the Manager and certain service providers. The actual day-to-day risk management with respect to the Fund resides with the Manager and other service providers to
the Fund. Although the risk management policies of the Manager and the service providers are designed to be effective, those policies and their implementation vary among service providers and over time, and there is no guarantee that they will be
effective. Not all risks that may affect the Fund can be identified or processes and controls developed to eliminate or mitigate their occurrence or effects, and some risks are simply beyond any control of the Fund or the Manager, its affiliates or
other service providers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Selection of Director Nominees.</I> The Nominating and Governance Committee is responsible for considering
nominees for election as Directors at such times as it considers electing new members to the Board. The Nominating and Governance Committee may consider recommendations by business and personal contacts of current Directors and by executive search
firms which the committee may engage from time to time and will also consider stockholder recommendations. The Nominating and Governance Committee has not established specific, minimum qualifications that it believes must be met by a nominee. In
evaluating nominees, the Nominating and Governance Committee considers, among other things, an individual&#146;s background, skills, and experience; whether the individual is an &#147;interested person&#148; as defined in the 1940 Act; and whether
the individual would be deemed an &#147;audit committee financial expert&#148; within the meaning of applicable SEC rules. The Nominating and Governance Committee also considers whether the individual&#146;s background, skills, and experience will
complement the background, skills, and experience of other nominees and will contribute to the diversity of the Board. There are no differences in the manner in which the Nominating and Governance Committee evaluates nominees for the Board based on
whether the nominee is recommended by a stockholder. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A stockholder who wishes to recommend a person for nomination for election as a

nominated; and the name and address of the person submitting the recommendation, together with the shares of stock of the Fund held by such person and the period for which the shares have been held. The recommendation also can include any additional

Committee is oversight; it is management&#146;s responsibility to maintain appropriate systems for accounting and internal control over financial reporting, and the independent accountants&#146; responsibility to plan and carry out a proper audit.
Specifically, Fund management is responsible for: (1)&nbsp;preparation, presentation and integrity of the Fund&#146;s financial statements; (2)&nbsp;maintenance of appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles and policies;
(3)&nbsp;maintenance of internal control over financial reporting and other procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and related laws and regulations; and (4)&nbsp;maintenance of procedures for the reporting to the Audit
Committee of material findings by the internal audit department of Prudential Financial, Inc. relating to the operations of the Fund and/or its advisers or service providers. The independent accountants are responsible for planning and carrying out
an audit consistent with applicable legal and professional standards and terms of their engagement letter. The independent accountants are accountable to the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee, as representatives of the shareholders. The
Audit Committee and the Board of Directors have the ultimate authority and responsibility to retain and terminate the Fund&#146;s independent accountants (subject, if applicable, to shareholder ratification). Nothing in this Charter shall be

themselves out to be, acting as accountants or auditors. As such, it is not the responsibility of the Committee or its members to conduct audits, to determine that the financial statements are complete and accurate and are in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, to conduct &#147;field work&#148; or other types of auditing or accounting reviews or procedures. </P>
