Act. If the Board Member Nominees are elected by shareholders, each Board will be comprised of either eleven (in the case of KTF and KSM) or twelve individuals, all of whom are Independent Board Members. Each of the Board Member Nominees that will

Furthermore, the Independent Board Members review the fees paid to the Advisor and its affiliates for investment advisory services and other services. Each Board has adopted specific policies and guidelines that, among other things, seek to further
enhance the effectiveness of the Independent Board Members in performing their duties. For example, the Independent Board Members select independent legal counsel to work with them in reviewing fees, advisory and other contracts and overseeing fund
matters, and regularly meet privately with their counsel. An Independent Board Member, Mr.&nbsp;Froewiss, currently serves as Chairperson of the Board of each Fund. </FONT></P>

the funds overseen by the Board Members and the aggregate amount of assets under management in the DWS funds, each Board has determined that the efficient conduct of its affairs makes it desirable to delegate responsibility for certain specific
matters to committees of the Board. These committees, which are described in more detail below, review and evaluate matters specified in their charters and make recommendations to the Board as they deem appropriate. Each committee may utilize the
resources of the Fund&#146;s counsel and auditors as well as other experts. The committees meet as often as necessary, either in conjunction with regular meetings of the Board or otherwise. The membership and chair of each committee are appointed by
the Board upon recommendations of the Nominating and Governance Committee. The membership and chair of each committee consists solely of Independent Board Members. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

management is the primary responsibility of each Fund&#146;s investment advisor, the Board regularly receives reports regarding investment risks and compliance risks. The Board&#146;s committee structure allows separate committees to focus on
different aspects of these risks and their potential impact on some or all of the DWS funds and to discuss with the Fund&#146;s investment advisor and administrator how it monitors and controls such risks. </FONT></P>

responsibility for oversight of (1)&nbsp;the integrity of the financial statements, (2)&nbsp;a Fund&#146;s accounting and financial reporting policies and procedures, (3)&nbsp;a Fund&#146;s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements related
to accounting and financial reporting, (4)&nbsp;valuation of Fund assets and securities and (5)&nbsp;the qualifications, independence and performance of the independent registered public accounting firm for a Fund. Effective January&nbsp;1, 2014,
the Audit Committee assumed certain valuation oversight responsibilities. Accordingly, the Audit Committee oversees the valuation of Fund securities and other assets and determines, as needed, the fair value of Fund securities or other assets under
certain circumstances as described in a Fund&#146;s Valuation Procedures. The Audit Committee has appointed a Valuation Sub-Committee, which may make determinations of fair value required when the Audit Committee is not in session. The current
members of each Fund&#146;s Valuation Sub-Committee are John W. Ballantine, Richard J. Herring, Henry P. Becton, Jr. (Alternate), Paul K. Freeman (Alternate) and William McClayton (Alternate). The Audit Committee also approves and recommends to the
Board the appointment, retention or termination of the independent registered public accounting firm for a Fund, reviews the scope of audit and internal controls, considers and reports to the Board on matters relating to a Fund&#146;s accounting and
financial reporting practices, and performs such other tasks as the full Board deems necessary or appropriate. The Audit Committee receives annual representations from the independent registered public accounting firm as to its independence. Each
Fund&#146;s Audit Committee is governed by the Audit Committee Charter, which is available on each Fund&#146;s information page at <U>https://www.dws-investments.com/EN/products/closed-end-prices-performance.jsp</U>. Each Fund&#146;s Audit Committee
is comprised of only Independent Board Members who are &#147;independent&#148; as defined in the New York Stock Exchange (&#147;NYSE&#148;) listing standards applicable to closed-end funds. Pursuant to the charter of each Fund&#146;s Audit
Committee, no member of the Audit Committee shall serve on the audit committee of more than three public companies unless the Board determines that such simultaneous service would not impair the ability of the Audit Committee member to serve
effectively on the committee. At its January 2012 meeting, the Board of each Fund considered the fact that Mr.&nbsp;Richard Herring had begun simultaneous service on more than three public company audit committees and determined that such

Exchange Act of 1934 require each Fund&#146;s officers and Board Members, DIMA, affiliated persons of DIMA and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Fund&#146;s equity securities to file forms reporting their affiliation
with that Fund and reports of ownership and changes in ownership of that Fund&#146;s shares with the SEC. These persons and entities are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Funds with copies of all Section&nbsp;16(a) forms they file. Based
solely upon its review of the copies of such forms received by it, and written representations from certain reporting persons that no year-end reports were required for those persons, each Fund believes that during the fiscal year ended
November&nbsp;30, 2013, all filings required by Section&nbsp;16(a) were timely, except Paul Antosca, Assistant Treasurer of KTF, filed a Form 4 one day late on behalf of that Fund. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
