     3. Differences in Distribution Arrangements: Class A shares shall be offered with a front-end sales charge, as such term is defined under the Conduct Rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (the "FINRA Conduct Rules"), and a contingent deferred sales charge (a "CDSC"), as such term is defined under the FINRA Conduct Rules, may be assessed on certain redemptions of Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge as part of an investment of $1 million or more. The amount of the sales charge and the amount of and provisions relating to the CDSC pertaining to the Class A shares are set forth on Schedule A hereto.

     Class C shares shall not be subject to a front-end sales charge, but shall be subject to a CDSC and shall be charged an annual distribution fee under a Distribution Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The amount of and provisions relating to the CDSC, and the amount of the fees under the Distribution Plan pertaining to the Class C shares, are set forth on Schedule B hereto.

SCHEDULE B

Contingent Deferred Sales Charge—Class C Shares—A CDSC of 1.00% payable to the Fund's Distributor shall be imposed on any redemption of Class C shares within one year of the date of purchase. No CDSC shall be imposed to the extent that the net asset value of the Class C shares redeemed does not exceed (i) the current net asset value of Class C shares of the Fund acquired through reinvestment of Fund dividends or capital gain distributions, plus (ii) increases in the net asset value of the shareholder's Class C shares above the dollar amount of all payments for the purchase of Class C shares of the Fund held by such shareholder at the time of redemption.

If the aggregate value of the Class C shares redeemed has declined below their original cost as a result of the Fund's performance, a CDSC may be applied to the then-current net asset value rather than the purchase price.

In determining whether a CDSC is applicable to a redemption, the calculation shall be made in a manner that results in the lowest possible rate. Therefore, it shall be assumed that the redemption is made first of amounts representing Class C shares of the Fund acquired pursuant to the reinvestment of Fund dividends and distributions; then of amounts representing the increase in net asset value of Class C shares above the total amount of payments for the purchase of Class C shares made during the preceding year; and finally, of amounts representing the cost of Class C shares held for the longest period of time.

Waiver of CDSC—The CDSC shall be waived in connection with (a) redemptions made within one year after the death or disability, as defined in Section 72(m)(7) of the Code, of the shareholder, (b) redemptions by employees participating in Retirement Plans, (c) redemptions as a result of a combination of any investment company with the Fund by merger, acquisition of assets or otherwise, (d) a distribution following retirement under a tax-deferred retirement plan or upon attaining age 70-1/2 in the case of an IRA or Keogh plan or custodial account pursuant to Section 403(b) of the Code, and (e) redemptions pursuant to any systematic withdrawal plan as described in the Fund's prospectus. Any Fund shares subject to a CDSC which were purchased prior to the termination of such waiver shall have the CDSC waived as provided in the Fund's prospectus at the time of the purchase of such shares.

Amount of Distribution Plan Fees—Class C Shares—.75 of 1% of the value of the average daily net assets of Class C.
