<P align=left><FONT face="TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif">These results are approximate and preliminary and will be confirmed within five business days. The number of shares tendered and not withdrawn for each fund reflects shares properly tendered and excludes fractional shares tendered. The percentage of shares tendered includes those shares tendered pursuant to a notice of guaranteed delivery. Proceeds of the tender offer are expected to be mailed to shareholders beginning in the week of July 16, 2007.</FONT></P>
<P align=left><FONT face="TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif">In approving the tender offer program for these funds, the Trustees considered that tender offers would give shareholders an opportunity to sell at least some of their shares at a price close to NAV, and that the tender offer price of 98% of NAV would help offset the costs that shareholders who retain their shares would otherwise bear in connection with the tender offers. </FONT></P>
