Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 (FAS 157), 
                      Fair Value Measurements. 
                      These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below. 
                      Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. 
                      Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, 
                      credit risk, etc.) 
                      Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing 
in those securities. 
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2009 in valuing the fund's investments: 

      Level 3 -   
  Level 1 -  Level 2 - Other  Significant

The fund adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 161”). FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. All changes to accounting policies and disclosures have been made in accordance with FAS 161 and are incorporated for the current period as part of the disclosures within this Note.

Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sales price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADRs and futures contracts. For other securities that are fair valued by the Board of Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of


the issuer or comparable issuers. Financial futures are valued at the last sales price. Investments denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange. Forward currency exchange contracts are valued at the forward rate.

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund’s policy that, at origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager, U.S. Government and Agency securities or letters of credit. The fund is entitled to receive all income on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the lending transaction. Although each security loaned is fully collateralized, the fund bears the risk of delay in recovery of, or loss of rights in, the securities loaned should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: The fund may enter into forward contracts in order to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on its foreign portfolio holdings, to settle foreign currency transactions or as a part of an investment strategy. When executing forward contracts, the fund is obligated to buy or sell a foreign currency at a specified rate on a certain date in the future. With respect to sales of forward contracts, the fund would incur a loss if the value of the contracts increase between the date the forward contracts are opened and the date the forward contracts are closed. The fund realizes a gain if the value of the contracts decrease between those dates. With respect to purchases of forward contracts, the fund would incur a loss if the value of the contracts decrease between the date the forward contracts are opened and the date the forward contracts are closed. The fund realizes a gain if the value of the contracts increase between those dates. The fund is also exposed to credit risk associated with counterparty nonperformance on these forward contracts, which


is typically limited to the unrealized gain on each open contract.

Additional investment related disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference to the annual and semi-annual reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form N-CSR.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 (FAS 157), 
                    Fair Value Measurements. 
                    These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below. 
                    Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. 
                    Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, 
                    credit risk, etc.) 
                    Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing 
in those securities. 
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2009 in valuing the fund's investments: 

      Level 3 -   
    Level 2 - Other  Significant   
  Level 1 -  Significant Observable  Unobservable   
Assets ($)  Quoted Prices  Inputs  Inputs  Total 
Investments in Securities:

† Other financial instruments include derivative instruments, such as futures, forward currency exchange contracts, swap contracts and options contracts. Amounts shown represents unrealized appreciation (depreciation), or in the case of options, market value at period end.

The following is a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for which significant unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value:

The fund adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 161”). FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. All changes to accounting policies and disclosures have been made in accordance with FAS 161 and are incorporated for the current period as part of the disclosures within this Note.

Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sales price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair va lue, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADRs and futures contracts. For other securities that are fair valued by the Board of Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of


the issuer or comparable issuers. Financial futures are valued at the last sales price. Investments denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange. Forward currency exchange contracts are valued at the forward rate.

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund’s policy that, at origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager, U.S. Government and Agency securities or letters of credit. The fund is entitled to receive all income on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the lending transaction. Although each security loaned is fully collateralized, the fund bears the risk of delay in recovery of, or loss of rights in, the securities loa ned should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: The fund may enter into forward contracts in order to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on its foreign portfolio holdings, to settle foreign currency transactions or as a part of an investment strategy. When executing forward contracts, the fund is obligated to buy or sell a foreign currency at a specified rate on a certain date in the future. With respect to sales of forward contracts, the fund would incur a loss if the value of the contracts increase between the date the forward contracts are opened and the date the forward contracts are closed. The fund realizes a gain if the value of the contracts decrease between those dates. With respect to purchases of forward contracts, the fund would incur a loss if the value of the contracts decrease between the date the forward contracts are opened and the date the forward contracts are closed. The fund realizes a gain if t he value of the contracts increase between those dates. The fund is also exposed to credit risk associated with counterparty nonperformance on these forward contracts, which


is typically limited to the unrealized gain on each open contract.

Futures Contracts: In the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives, the fund is exposed to market risk (including equity price risk, interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk) as a result of changes in value of underlying financial instruments. The fund may invest in financial futures contracts in order to manage its exposure to or protect against changes in the market. A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase of the sale of an asset at a specified date. Upon entering into such contracts, these investments require initial margin deposits with a broker, which consist of cash or cash equivalents. The amount of these deposits is determined by the exchange or Board of Trade on which the contract is traded and is subject to change. Accordingly, variation margin payments are received or made to reflect daily unrealized gains or losses, which are recorded in the Statement of Operations. Futures contracts are valued daily at the settlement price established by the Board of Trade or exchange upon which they are traded. When the contracts are closed, the fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. There is minimal counterparty credit risk to the fund with futures, since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.

Additional investment related disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference to the annual and semi-annual reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form N-CSR.

c      Investment in affiliated money market mutual fund.

At June 30, 2009, the aggregate cost of investment securities for income tax purposes was $14,664,368. Net unrealized appreciation on investments was $73,251 of which $2,413,662 related to appreciated investment securities and $2,340,411 related to depreciated investment securities.


Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 (FAS 157), 
                      Fair Value Measurements. 
                      These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below. 
                      Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. 
                      Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, 
                      credit risk, etc.) 
                      Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing 
in those securities. 
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2009 in valuing the fund's investments: 

      Level 3 -   
  Level 1 -  Level 2 - Other  Significant   
  Quoted  Significant Observable  Unobservable

† Other financial instruments include derivative instruments, such as futures, forward currency exchange contracts, swap contracts and options contracts. Amounts shown represents unrealized appreciation (depreciation), or in the case of options, market value at period end.

The following is a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for which significant unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value:

  Foreign Equity 
  Securities 
  Investments ($) 
Balance as of 9/30/2008  249,211 
Realized gain (loss)  0 
Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)  (186,228) 
Net purchases (sales)  0 
Transfers in and/or out of Level 3  61,680 


Balance as of 6/30/2009  124,663 


The fund adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 161”). FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. Since the fund held no derivatives during the period ended June 30, 2009, FAS 161 disclosures did not impact these notes.

Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sales price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair va lue, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADRs and futures contracts. For other securities that are fair valued by the

Board of Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition,

an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities


are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers. Financial futures are valued at the last sales price. Investments denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange. Forward currency exchange contracts are valued at the forward rate.

Additional investment related disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference to the annual and semi-annual reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form N-CSR.

a  All or a portion of these securities are on loan. At June 30, 2009, the total market value of the fund's securities on loan is   
  $50,046,046 and the total market value of the collateral held by the fund is $51,979,705.     
b  Non-income producing security.     
c  Investment in affiliated money market mutual fund.     
 
At June 30, 2009, the aggregate cost of investment securities for income tax purposes was $297,386,882. Net unrealized appreciation on 
investments was $25,973,281 of which $30,880,604 related to appreciated investment securities and $4,907,323 related to depreciated 
investment securities.     


Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 (FAS 157), 
                        Fair Value Measurements. 
                        These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below. 
                        Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. 
                        Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, 
                        credit risk, etc.) 
                        Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing 
in those securities. 
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2009 in valuing the fund's investments: 

      Level 3 -   
    Level 2 - Other  Significant   
  Level 1 -  Significant Observable  Unobservable   
Assets ($)  Quoted Prices  Inputs  Inputs  Total 
Investments in Securities:         
Equity Securities - Domestic  253,460,219  -  -  253,460,219 
Equity Securities - Foreign  2,813,226  -  -  2,813,226 
Mutual Funds/ETFs  67,086,718  -  -  67,086,718 
Other Financial Instruments+  -  -  -  - 
Liabilities ($)         
Other Financial Instruments+  -  -  -  - 

† Other financial instruments include derivative instruments, such as futures, forward currency exchange contracts, swap contracts and options contracts. Amounts shown represents unrealized appreciation (depreciation), or in the case of options, market value at period end.

The following is a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for which significant unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value:

Investments in Private Equities ($)

Balance as of 9/30/2008  7,349,961 
Realized gain (loss)  - 
Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)  - 
Net purchases (sales)  (7,349,961) 
Transfers in and/or out of Level 3  - 
Balance as of 6/30/2009  - 


The fund adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 161”). FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. Since the fund held no derivatives during the period, FAS 161 disclosures did not impact the notes to the financial statements.

Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sales price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available.

Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADRs and futures contracts. For other securities that are fair valued by the Board of Trustees, certain factors may b e considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable


issuers. Financial futures are valued at the last sales price.

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund’s policy that, at origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager, U.S. Government and Agency securities or letters of credit. The fund is entitled to receive all income on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the lending transaction. Although each security loaned is fully collateralized, the fund bears the risk of delay in recovery of, or loss of rights in, the securities loa ned should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner.

Additional investment related disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference to the annual and semi-annual reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form N-CSR.

a  All or a portion of these securities are on loan. At June 30, 2009, the total market value of the fund's securities on loan is   
  $48,246,753 and the total market value of the collateral held by the fund is $51,017,148.     
b  Non-income producing security.     
c  Investment in affiliated money market mutual fund.     
 
At June 30, 2009, the aggregate cost of investment securities for income tax purposes was $266,754,510. Net unrealized appreciation on 
investments was $25,175,736 of which $29,179,058 related to appreciated investment securities and $4,003,322 related to depreciated 
investment securities.     


Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 (FAS 157), 
                              Fair Value Measurements. 
                              These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below. 
                              Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. 
                              Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, 
                              credit risk, etc.) 
                              Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing 
in those securities. 
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2009 in valuing the fund's investments: 

      Level 3 -   
    Level 2 - Other  Significant   
  Level 1 -  Significant Observable  Unobservable   
Assets ($)  Quoted Prices  Inputs  Inputs  Total 
Investments in Securities:         
Equity Securities - Domestic  224,409,856  -  -  224,409,856 
Equity Securities - Foreign  2,491,398  -  -  2,491,398 
Mutual Funds/ETFs  65,028,992  -  -  65,028,992 
Other Financial Instruments+  -  -  -  - 
Liabilities ($)         
Other Financial Instruments+  -  -  -  - 

† Other financial instruments include derivative instruments, such as futures, forward currency exchange contracts, swap contracts and options contracts. Amounts shown represents unrealized appreciation (depreciation), or in the case of options, market value at period end.

The following is a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for which significant unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value:

  Money Market 
  Investments ($) 
Balance as of 9/30/2008  13,102,183 
Realized gain (loss)  0 
Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)   
Net purchases (sales)  (13,102,183) 
Transfers in and/or out of Level 3  0 
Balance as of 6/30/2009  0 


The fund adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 161”). FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. Since the fund held no derivatives during the period ended June 30, 2009, FAS 161 disclosures did not impact these notes.

Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sales price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered investment companies that are not traded on the exchange are valued at their net asset value. When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair v alue, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADRs and futures contracts. For other securities that are fair valued by the Board of Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers. Financial


futures are valued at the last sales price.

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund’s policy, that at origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned and that collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager, U.S. Government and Agency securities or letters of credit. The fund is entitled to receive all income on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the lending transaction. Although each security loaned is fully collateralized, the fund bears the risk of delay in recovery of, or loss of rights in, the securi ties loaned should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner.

Additional investment related disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference to the annual and semi-annual reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form N-CSR.

At June 30, 2009, the aggregate cost of investment securities for income tax purposes was $525,831,564. Net unrealized depreciation on investments was $42,576,679 of which $28,536,615 related to appreciated investment securities and $71,113,294 related to depreciated investment securities.


Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 (FAS 157), 
                      Fair Value Measurements. 
                      These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below. 
                      Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. 
                      Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, 
                      credit risk, etc.) 
                      Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing 
in those securities. 
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2009 in valuing the fund's investments: 

    Level 2 - Other     
  Level 1 -  Significant Observable  Level 3 -Significant   
Assets ($)  Quoted Prices  Inputs  Unobservable Inputs  Total

† Other financial instruments include derivative instruments, such as futures, forward currency exchange contracts, swap contracts and options contracts. Amounts shown represents unrealized appreciation (depreciation), or in the case of options, market value at period end.

The following is a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for which significant unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value:

     Investments in Private Equities ($)

The fund adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 161”). FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. Since the fund held no derivatives during the period ended June 30, 2009, FAS 161 disclosures did not impact these notes.

Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sales price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair va lue, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADRs and futures contracts. For other securities that are fair valued by the Board of Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers.


Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund’s policy that, at origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager, U.S. Government and Agency securities or letters of credit. The fund is entitled to receive all income on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result

of the lending transaction. Although each security loaned is fully collateralized, the fund bears the risk of delay in recovery of, or loss of rights in, the securities loaned should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner.

Additional investment related disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference to the annual and semi-annual reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form N-CSR.

At June 30, 2009, the aggregate cost of investment securities for income tax purposes was $17,573,278. Net unrealized appreciation on investments was $535,973 of which $1,424,761 related to appreciated investment securities and $888,788 related to depreciated investment securities.


Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 (FAS 157), 
                        Fair Value Measurements. 
                        These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below. 
                        Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. 
                        Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, 
                        credit risk, etc.) 
                        Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing 
in those securities. 
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2009 in valuing the fund's investments:

The fund adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 161”). FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. Since the fund held no derivatives during the period ended June 30, 2009, FAS 161 disclosures did not impact these notes.

Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sales price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Trustees.

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund’s policy that, at origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager, U.S. Government and Agency securities or letters of credit. The fund is entitled to receive all income on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the lending transaction. Although each security loaned is fully collateralized, the fund bears the risk of delay in recovery of, or loss of rights in, the securities loaned should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner.

Additional investment related disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference to the annual and semi-annual reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form N-CSR.

At June 30, 2009, the aggregate cost of investment securities for income tax purposes was $162,389,794. Net unrealized appreciation on investments was $9,833,665 of which $12,350,065 related to appreciated investment securities and $2,516,400 related to depreciated investment securities.


Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 (FAS 157), 
                      Fair Value Measurements. 
                      These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below. 
                      Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. 
                      Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, 
                      credit risk, etc.) 
                      Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing 
in those securities. 
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2009 in valuing the fund's investments: 

      Level 3 -   
    Level 2 - Other  Significant   
    Significant Observable  Unobservable   
Assets ($)  Level 1 -Quoted Prices  Inputs  Inputs  Total 
Investments in Securities:         
Equity Securities - Domestic  131,483,610  -  -  131,483,610 
Mutual Funds/ETFs  40,739,849  -  -  40,739,849 
Other Financial Instruments+  -  -  -  - 
Liabilities ($)         
Other Financial Instruments+  -  -  -  - 

† Other financial instruments include derivative instruments, such as futures, forward currency exchange contracts, swap contracts and options contracts. Amounts shown represents unrealized appreciation (depreciation), or in the case of options, market value at period end.

The following is a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for which significant unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value:

Private Equities Investments ($)

Balance as of 9/30/2008  243,478 
Realized gain (loss)  - 
Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)  - 
Net purchases (sales)  (243,478) 
Transfers in and/or out of Level 3  - 
Balance as of 6/30/2009  - 


The fund adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 161”). FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. Since the fund held no derivatives during the period ended June 30, 2009, FAS 161 disclosures did not impact these notes.

Investments in securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sales price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Directors. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADRs and futures contracts. For other securities that are fair valued by the Board of Directors, certain factors may be considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers.


Investments denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange. Forward currency exchange contracts are valued at the forward rate. Financial futures are valued at the last sales price.

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund’s policy, that at origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned and that collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager, U.S. Government and Agency securities or letters of credit. The fund is entitled to receive all income on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the lending transaction. Although each security loaned is fully collateralized, the fund bears the risk of delay in recovery of, or loss of rights in, the securi ties loaned should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner.

Additional investment related disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference to the annual and semi-annual reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form N-CSR.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 (FAS 157), 
                        Fair Value Measurements. 
                        These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below. 
                        Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. 
                        Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, 
                        credit risk, etc.) 
                        Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing 
in those securities. 
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2009 in valuing the fund's investments: 

      Level 3 -

† Other financial instruments include derivative instruments, such as futures, forward currency exchange contracts, swap contracts and options contracts. Amounts shown represents unrealized appreciation (depreciation), or in the case of options, market value at period end.


The fund adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 161”). FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. Since the fund held no derivatives during the period, FAS 161 disclosures did not impact the notes to the financial statements.

Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued each business day by an independent pricing service (the “Service”) approved by the Board of Trustees. Investments for which quoted bid prices are readily available and are representative of the bid side of the market in the judgment of the Service are valued at the mean between the quoted bid prices (as obtained by the Service from dealers in such securities) and asked prices (as calculated by the Service based upon its evaluation of the market for such securities). Other investments (which constitute a majority of the portfolio securities) are valued as determined by the Service, based on methods which include consideration of: yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions. Options and financial futures on municipal and U.S.Treasury securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange on which such securities are primarily traded or at the last sales price on the national securities market on each business day.

Additional investment related disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference to the annual and semi-annual reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form N-CSR.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 (FAS 157), 
                        Fair Value Measurements. 
                        These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below. 
                        Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. 
                        Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, 
                        credit risk, etc.) 
                        Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing 
in those securities. 
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2009 in valuing the fund's investments: 

      Level 3 -   
    Level 2 - Other  Significant

The fund adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 161”). FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. All changes to accounting policies and disclosures have been made in accordance with FAS 161 and are incorporated for the current period as part of the disclosures within this Note.

Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sales price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADRs and futures contracts. For other securities that are fair valued by the Board of Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of


the issuer or comparable issuers. Financial futures are valued at the last sales price. Investments denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange. Forward currency exchange contracts are valued at the forward rate.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: The fund may enter into forward contracts in order to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on its foreign portfolio holdings, to settle foreign currency transactions or as a part of an investment strategy. When executing forward contracts, the fund is obligated to buy or sell a foreign currency at a specified rate on a certain date in the future. With respect to sales of forward contracts, the fund would incur a loss if the value of the contracts increase between the date the forward contracts are opened and the date the forward contracts are closed. The fund realizes a gain if the value of the contracts decrease between those dates. With respect to purchases of forward contracts, the fund would incur a loss if the value of the contracts decrease between the date the forward contracts are opened and the date the forward contracts are closed. The fund realizes a gain if the value of the contracts increase between those dates. The fund is also exposed to credit risk associated with counterparty nonperformance on these forward contracts, which is typically limited to the unrealized gain on each open contract.

Additional investment related disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference to the annual and semi-annual reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form N-CSR.
