(each, a “Registrant” and collectively, the “Registrants”)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

On behalf of the Registrants listed above, each of which is a registered investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, we are transmitting herewith for filing pursuant to Rule 14a-6(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 the definitive notice of special meeting, proxy statement and form of proxy card in connection with a special meeting of shareholders of the specified series of each Registrant (the “Funds”). The special meeting is scheduled to be held on February 15, 2011.

Proxies are being solicited for the Funds to consider and vote on: (i) a proposal to elect 16 individuals to serve on the Board of Directors/Trustees of the Registrants, (ii) for certain Registrants, a proposal to approve an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation or Declaration of Trust of certain Registrants, which would increase the maximum number of directors/trustees of such Registrants, (iii) for certain Funds, a proposal to approve an Agreement and Plan of Redomiciling, (iv) for certain Funds, the approval of a new Investment Management Services Agreement and (v) for certain Funds, a proposal to authorize the investment adviser of the Funds to enter into and materially amend subadvisory agreements in the future, with the approval of the board of directors that oversees the Fund, but without obtaining shareholder approval.

If you have any questions or comments, please contact me at (612) 671-4321.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Christopher O. Petersen
