3 Reporting Requirements

3.1 Reports of Transactions – Independent Directors/Trustees and Directors/Trustees who are not Access Persons

A director or trustee of a Fund who is not an “interested person” of the Fund within the meaning of Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act (an “Independent Director/Trustee”) and a director or trustee of a Fund who is not an Access Person shall report promptly to the MSIM Legal Department any personal transaction in a security if he or she knows or in the course of his/her duties as a Director/Trustee of the Fund should have known that during the 15 day period immediately before or after the Independent Director’s/Trustee’s transaction in the same security: (i) the Fund had purchased or sold the same security; or (ii) MSIM considered purchasing or selling the same security. Because monitoring the publication of a Fund’s portfolio holdings is not construed to be within the ordinary course of fulfilling the duties of a director/trustee, the publication or availability of a Fund’s portfolio holdings shall not be construed to impart actual or constructive knowledge of the Fund’s portfolio transactions on an Independent Director/Trustee.
