4.    The paragraph  captioned "Advisory Fees" under the section "How the Fund
         is Managed" on page 11 is deleted and replaced with the following:

         Advisory  Fees.  Effective  January  1,  2004,  under the  investment
            advisory  agreement,  the Fund pays the Manager an advisory fee at
            an annual rate that declines as the Fund's  assets grow:  0.75% of
            the first $200  million of average  annual net assets of the Fund,
            0.72% of the next $200  million,  0.69% of the next $200  million,
            0.66% of the next $200  million,  0.60% of the next $700  million,
            0.58% of the next $1.0  billion,  0.56% of the next $2.0  billion,
            0.54% of the next $2.0  billion,  0.52% of the next $2.0  billion,
            and 0.50% of  average  annual net assets  over $8.5  billion.  The
            Fund's  management  fee for its last fiscal year ended  August 31,
            2003 was 0.58% of  average  annual  net  assets  for each class of
            shares.  If the  revised  advisory  fee rate  had  been in  effect
            during the last fiscal year,  the  management  fee would have been
            0.57%.
