5.    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%.

6.    The third paragraph under the section  captioned  "WHICH CLASS OF SHARES
      SHOULD YOU  CHOOSE?  -  Investing  for the  Shorter  Term" on page 15 is
      deleted and replaced with the following:

         And for  non-retirement  plan  investors  who  invest $1  million or
         more,  in most cases  Class A shares  will be the most  advantageous
         choice,  no matter  how long you  intend to hold  your  shares.  For
         that  reason,  the  Distributor  normally  will not accept  purchase
         orders of  $250,000  or more of Class B shares or $1 million or more
         of Class C shares from a single investor
