This new language becomes effective immediately. SHAREHOLDER GUIDE The Fund and the other Prudential Mutual Funds are not intended to serve as vehicles for frequent trading in response to short-term fluctuations in the market. Due to the disruptive effect that market timing investment strategies and excessive trading can have on efficient portfolio management, each Prudential Mutual Fund and the Fund reserves the right to refuse purchase orders and exchanges by any person, group or commonly controlled accounts, if, in the Manager's sole judgment, such person, group or accounts were following a market timing strategy or were otherwise engaging in excessive trading ('Market Timers'). To implement this authority to protect the Fund and its shareholders from excessive trading, the Fund will reject all exchanges and purchases from a Market Timer unless the Market Timer has entered into a written agreement with the Fund or its affiliates pursuant to which the Market Timer has agreed to abide by certain procedures, which include a daily dollar limit on trading. The Fund may notify the Market Timer of rejection of an exchange or purchase order subsequent to the day on which the order was placed.
