The Fund&#146;s registration statement relating to the sale of 3,975,000 shares by the Bank (the &#147;Registration Statement&#148;) was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 8, 2005, and the Bank commenced sales pursuant to the Registration Statement on December 21, 2005.  As of the date of this Amendment, the Bank has effected the sales set forth in item 5 below.  The Bank expects to sell additional shares pursuant to the Registration Statement in accordance with the plan of distribution set forth therein and in the Prospectus but reserves the rights to cease such sales at any time and to sell other shares pursuant to the terms of rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933.
The Bank effected the sales described in item 5 to recognize built-in gain on portions of the Bank&#146;s position in the shares.   In addition, the Bank entered into the call option transactions described in items 5 and 6 below with certain of the purchasers.</font></p>

The percentages set forth in this Item 5(a) are derived using such number. For purposes of rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the &#147;Exchange Act&#148;), the Bank deems itself to be the beneficial owner of 4,603,050 shares of Common Stock, which constitute approximately 27.4% of the outstanding shares. Of such shares, the Bank has economic beneficial ownership of, and exercises sole voting and dispositional authority over, 1,383,050 shares (or approximately 8.2% of the outstanding shares) and has the right to acquire 3,220,000 shares (or approximately 19.2% of the outstanding shares) pursuant to the options described in item 5(c) below (the &#147;Options&#148;), which are exercisable only on July 3, 2006. Pending exercise of the Options, the Bank
possesses neither voting nor dispositional control over the shares that may be acquired pursuant thereto but possesses dispositional authority over the Options. Pursuant to rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) under the Exchange Act, the Bank deems itself to beneficially own the shares that may be acquired upon exercise of the Options.    </font></p>
