Total
return shows the Fund's overall change in value, including changes in
share price and assuming all the Fund's distributions are reinvested.
Cumulative total return reflects the Fund's performance over a stated
period of time. Average annual total return reflects the hypothetical
annually compounded return that would have produced the same cumulative
total return if the Fund's performance had been constant over the entire
period. Since average annual returns tend to smooth out variations in the
Fund's returns, shareholders should recognize that these returns are not
the same as actual year-by-year returns.

Fund Fact Sheet
Results represent past performance and do not guarantee future results.
Market volatility
can significantly impact short-term performance. Results of an investment
made today may differ substantially from the Fund's historical
performance. Investment return and principal value will
fluctuate, and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than
original cost. Total return includes reinvestment of dividends
and capital gains. During the period, some
of the Fund's fees were waived or expenses reimbursed. In the absence of
these waivers and reimbursements, performance figures would be lower.
On June 1, 1998, a limited partnership
managed by the Adviser reorganized into the Fund. The predecessor limited
partnership maintained an investment objective and investment policies
that were, in all material respects, equivalent to those of the Fund. The
Fund's performance for periods before June 1, 1998 is that of the limited
partnership and includes the expenses of the limited partnership. If the
limited partnership's performance had been readjusted to reflect the first
year expenses of the Fund, the Fund's performance for the periods prior to
June 1, 1998 may have been lower. The limited partnership was not
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act") and was
not subject to certain investment limitations, diversification
requirements, and other restrictions imposed by the 1940 Act and the
Internal Revenue Code, which, if applicable, may have adversely affected
its performance.
