Ladies and Gentlemen:

         Pursuant to Rule 497(j) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, this letter serves as certification that the forms of Prospectuses and Statement of Additional Information that would have been filed under paragraph (c) of Rule 497 would not have differed from those filed in Post-Effective Amendment No. 64 (the “Amendment”) to the Trust’s Registration Statement on Form N-1A. The Amendment was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission electronically on April 29, 2009, with an effective date of April 30, 2009.
