522 Fifth Avenue
New York, New York 10036

JOINT ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

June 17, 2009

INTRODUCTION

This Joint Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the respective Board of Trustees (the “Trustees” or the “Board”) of each of the Van Kampen Closed-End Funds listed on Annex A to this Joint Proxy Statement (the “Funds”) of proxies to be voted at a Joint Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Funds, and all adjournments thereof (the “Meeting”), to be held at the offices of Van Kampen Investments Inc., 1 Parkview Plaza, Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois 60181-5555, on Wednesday, June 17, 2009, at 10:00 a.m. The Meeting will be an annual meeting for each Fund. The approximate mailing date of this Joint Proxy Statement and accompanying form of proxy is May 15, 2009.

Participating in the Meeting are holders of common shares of beneficial interest (the “Common Shares”) and, where applicable, the holders of preferred shares of beneficial interest (the “Preferred Shares”) of each of the Funds as set forth in Annex A to this Joint Proxy Statement. The Common Shares and the Preferred Shares of the Funds sometimes are referred to herein collectively as the “Shares.” The Meeting is scheduled as a joint meeting of the shareholders of the Funds because the shareholders of the Funds are expected to consider and vote on similar matters. The Board of Trustees has determined that the use of a joint proxy statement for the Meeting is in the best interest of the shareholders of each of the Funds. In the event that a shareholder of any Fund present at the Meeting objects to the holding of a joint meeting and moves for an adjournment of the meeting of such Fund to a time immediately after the Meeting so that such Fund’s meeting may be held separately, the persons named as proxies will vote in favor of the adjournment.

Annex A lists the abbreviated name and stock symbol by which the Funds sometimes are referred to in this Joint Proxy Statement. Please refer to Annex A for any questions you may have regarding whether your Fund is participating at the Meeting, defined terms relating to the Funds and abbreviated Fund names.

The Board has fixed the close of business on April 23, 2009 as the record date (the “Record Date”) for the determination of holders of Shares of each Fund entitled to vote at the Meeting. The number of issued and outstanding Common Shares and Preferred Shares of each Fund as of the Record Date is shown in Annex B to this Joint Proxy Statement.

The following table summarizes the proposals to be presented at the Meeting for the Funds and the shareholders entitled to vote with respect to the proposals.

Proposal/Affected Funds		Affected Shareholders
1.	Election of Trustees:
(a)	With respect to VKI, VCV, VPV and VMV, to elect
	— four Class I Trustees, each by holders of Common Shares of each such Fund	Common
(b)	With respect to VGM, VTJ, VIM, VTN, VOQ VKQ, VMO and VVR, to elect
	— two Class II Trustees, each by holders of Common Shares of each such Fund	Common
	— one Class II Trustee by holders of Preferred Shares of each such Fund	Preferred
(c)	With respect to VTA and VBF, to elect
	— three Class II Trustees, each by holders of Common Shares of each such Fund	Common
(d)	With respect to VKL, to elect
	— two Class III Trustees, each by holders of Common Shares of such Fund	Common
	— one Class III Trustee by holders of Preferred Shares of such Fund	Preferred

Each Fund will furnish, without charge, a copy of its most recent annual report (and the most recent semiannual report succeeding the annual report, if any) to any shareholder upon request. Any such request should be directed to the respective Fund by calling 1-800-341-2929 or by writing to the respective Fund at 1 Parkview Plaza — Suite 100, PO Box 5555, Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois 60181-5555.

Voting

Shareholders of a Fund on the Record Date are entitled to one vote per Share with respect to any proposal submitted to the shareholders of the Fund, with no Share having cumulative voting rights. The voting requirement for passage of a particular proposal depends on the nature of the proposal.

With respect to Proposal 1(a) through (d), holders of Common Shares and Preferred Shares, where applicable, will vote as separate classes for the respective nominee(s) to be elected by such class of Shares. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of a Fund present at the Meeting in person or by proxy is required to elect each nominee for Trustee of such Fund designated to be elected by the holders of the

2

Common Shares of such Fund. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the Preferred Shares of a Fund present at the Meeting in person or by proxy is required to elect such nominee for Trustee of such Fund designated to be elected by the holders of the Preferred Shares of such Fund. Election by plurality means those persons who receive the highest number of votes cast “FOR” up to the total number of persons to be elected as Trustees at the Meeting shall be elected.

The Board of Trustees of each Fund recommends that you cast your vote FOR ALL of the nominees for the Board of Trustees listed in the Joint Proxy Statement.

An unfavorable vote on a proposal by the shareholders of one Fund will not affect the implementation of such proposal by another Fund if the proposal is approved by the shareholders of the other Fund. An unfavorable vote on a proposal by the shareholders of a Fund will not affect such Fund’s implementation of other proposals that receive a favorable vote. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of Trustees.

All properly executed proxies received prior to the Meeting will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the instructions marked thereon. Proxies received prior to the Meeting on which no vote is indicated will be voted “FOR” each proposal as to which they are entitled to be voted. Abstentions and broker non-votes (i.e., where a nominee such as a broker, holding shares for beneficial owners, indicates that instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners, and the nominee does not exercise discretionary authority) are not treated as votes “FOR” a proposal. With respect to Proposal 1(a) through (d), abstentions and broker non-votes are disregarded since only votes “FOR” are considered in a plurality voting requirement. A majority of the outstanding Shares of a Fund entitled to vote must be present in person or by proxy to have a quorum for such Fund to conduct business at the Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be deemed present for quorum purposes.

Shareholders who execute proxies may revoke them at any time before they are voted by filing with the respective Fund a written notice of revocation, by delivering a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or by attending the Meeting and voting in person.

The Funds know of no business other than that mentioned in Proposal 1 of the Notice that will be presented for consideration at the Meeting. If any other matters are properly presented, it is the intention of the persons named on the enclosed proxy to vote proxies in accordance with their best judgment. In the event a quorum is present at the Meeting but sufficient votes to approve any of the proposals with respect to one or more Funds or proposals are not received, proxies (including abstentions and broker non-votes) would be voted in favor of one or more adjournments of the Meeting of the concerned Fund with respect to such proposal to permit further solicitation of proxies, provided they determine that such an adjournment and additional solicitation is reasonable and in the interest of shareholders based on a consideration of all relevant factors, including the nature of the relevant proposal, the percentage of votes then cast, the percentage of negative votes then

3

cast, the nature of the proposed solicitation activities and the nature of the reasons for such further solicitation.

PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF TRUSTEES

Trustees are to be elected by the shareholders at the Meeting in the following manner:

(a) With respect to VKI, VCV, VPV and VMV, four Class I Trustees are to be elected at the Meeting, to serve until the later of each such Fund’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2012 or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. Holders of Common Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to four Class I Trustees (David C. Arch, Jerry D. Choate, Howard J Kerr and Suzanne H. Woolsey) designated to be elected by such class of shares. An affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of each such Fund is required to elect the respective nominees. It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote the Shares represented by them for the election of the respective nominees listed unless the proxy is marked otherwise.

(b) With respect to VGM, VTJ, VIM, VTN, VOQ, VKQ, VMO and VVR, three Class II Trustees are to be elected at the Meeting, to serve until the later of each such Fund’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2012 or until a successor has been duly elected and qualified. Previously, Linda Hutton Heagy had been designated to be elected by holders of Common Shares and Rod Dammeyer had been designated to be elected by holders of Preferred Shares; at the Meeting, each of the above referenced Funds has designated Linda Hutton Heagy to be elected by holders of Preferred Shares of such Funds and Rod Dammeyer to be elected by holders of Common Shares of such Funds, each to serve for a three year term or until a successor shall have been duly elected and qualified. Thus, holders of Common Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to two Class II Trustees (Rod Dammeyer and Wayne W. Whalen) designated to be elected by such class of shares. Holders of Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to one Class II Trustee (Linda Hutton Heagy) designated to be elected by such class of shares. An affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of each such Fund and a plurality of the Preferred Shares of each such Fund is required to elect the respective nominees. It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote the Shares represented by them for the

5

election of the respective nominees listed unless the proxy is marked otherwise.

(c) With respect to VTA and VBF, three Class II Trustees are to be elected at the Meeting, to serve until the later of each such Fund’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2012 or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. Holders of Common Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to three Class II Trustees (Rod Dammeyer, Linda Hutton Heagy and Wayne W. Whalen) designated to be elected by such class of shares. An affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of each such Fund is required to elect the respective nominees. It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote the Shares represented by them for the election of the nominees listed unless the proxy is marked otherwise.

(d) With respect to VKL, three Class III Trustees are to be elected at the Meeting, to serve until the later of such Fund’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2012 or until a successor has been duly elected and qualified. Holders of Common Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to two Class III Trustees (R. Craig Kennedy and Jack E. Nelson) designated to be elected by such class of shares. Holders of Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to one Class III Trustee (Hugo F. Sonnenschein) designated to be elected by such class of shares. An affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of such Fund and a plurality of the Preferred Shares of such Fund is required to elect the respective nominees. It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote the Shares represented by them for the election of the respective nominees listed unless the proxy is marked otherwise.

As in the past, only one class of Trustees is being submitted to shareholders of each Fund for election at the Meeting. The Declaration of Trust of each Fund provides that the Board of Trustees shall consist of Trustees divided into three classes, the classes to be as nearly equal in number as possible. For each Fund, the Trustees of only one class are elected at each annual meeting so that the regular term of only one class of Trustees will expire annually and any particular Trustee stands for election only once in each three-year period. This type of classification may prevent replacement of a majority of Trustees of a Fund for up to a two-year period. The foregoing is subject to the provisions of the 1940 Act, applicable state law based on the state of organization of each Fund, each Fund’s Declaration of Trust and each Fund’s Bylaws.

Remuneration of Trustees

The compensation of Trustees and executive officers that are affiliated persons (as defined in 1940 Act) of the Adviser or Van Kampen Investments is paid by the respective affiliated entity. The funds in the Fund Complex, including the Funds, pay the non-affiliated Trustees an annual retainer and meeting fees for services to funds in the Fund Complex.

Each fund in the Fund Complex (except the Van Kampen Exchange Fund) provides a deferred compensation plan to its non-affiliated Trustees that allows such Trustees to defer receipt of compensation and earn a return on such deferred amounts based upon the return of the common shares of the funds in the Fund Complex as selected by the respective non-affiliated Trustees. Each fund in the Fund Complex (except the Van Kampen Exchange Fund) also provides a retirement plan to its non-affiliated Trustees that provides non-affiliated Trustees with compensation after retirement, provided that certain eligibility requirements are met as more fully described below.

Each non-affiliated Trustee generally can elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the compensation earned by such non-affiliated Trustee until retirement. Amounts deferred are retained by the respective fund and earn a rate of return determined by reference to the return on the common shares of such fund or other funds in the Fund Complex as selected by the respective non-affiliated Trustee, with the same economic effect as if such non-affiliated Trustee had invested in one or more funds in the Fund Complex, including the Funds. To the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, each Fund may invest in securities of those funds selected by the non-affiliated Trustees in order to match the deferred compensation obligation. The deferred compensation plan is not funded and obligations thereunder represent general unsecured claims against the general assets of the respective Fund.

Each Fund has adopted a retirement plan. Under the retirement plan, a non-affiliated Trustee who is receiving Trustee’s compensation from a Fund prior to such non-affiliated Trustee’s retirement, has at least 10 years of service (including years of service prior to adoption of the retirement plan) for such Fund and retires at or after attaining the age of 60, is eligible to receive a retirement benefit each year for ten years following such Trustee’s retirement from such Fund. Non-affiliated Trustees retiring prior to the age of 60 or with fewer than 10 years but more than 5 years of service may receive reduced retirement benefits from a Fund. Each Trustee has served as a member of each Fund’s Board of Trustees since the year of such Trustee’s appointment or election as set forth on Annex C to this Proxy Statement.

Additional information regarding compensation and benefits for Trustees is set forth below. As indicated in the notes accompanying the table, the amounts relate to either the respective Fund’s most recently completed fiscal year ended in 2008, the Fund

13

Complex’s most recently completed calendar year ended December 31, 2008 or as of the date of this Proxy Statement.

(1)	The amount of aggregate compensation payable by each Fund for its most recently completed fiscal year ended in 2008 before deferral by the Trustees under the deferred compensation plan is shown in Annex D. Certain Trustees deferred all or a portion of the aggregate compensation payable by each Fund for its most recently completed fiscal year ended in 2008 as shown in Annex E. The deferred compensation plan is described above the table. Amounts deferred are retained by the respective Fund and earn a rate of return determined by reference to either the return on the Common Shares of the Fund or the common shares of other funds in the Fund Complex as selected by the respective Trustee. To the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, the Fund may invest in securities of these funds selected by the Trustees in order to match the deferred compensation obligation. The cumulative deferred compensation (including earnings accrued thereon for each trustee) for each Fund as of the end of its most recently completed fiscal year ended in 2008 is shown in Annex F.
(2)	The amounts shown in this column represent the sum of the estimated retirement benefit accruals expected to be accrued by the operating funds in the Fund Complex for their respective fiscal years ended in 2008. The retirement plan is described above the compensation table.
(3)	For each Trustee, this is the sum of the estimated annual benefits payable by the current (i.e., as of the date of this Proxy Statement) operating funds in the Fund Complex for each year of the 10-year period commencing in the year of such Trustee’s anticipated retirement. The retirement plan is described above the compensation table.

(4)  The amounts shown in this column are accumulated from the aggregate compensation of the operating investment companies in the Fund Complex as of the calendar year ended December 31, 2008 before deferral by the Trustees under the

14

deferred compensation plan. Because the funds in the Fund Complex have different fiscal year ends, the amounts shown in this column are presented on a calendar year basis.

Board Committees and Meetings

Each Fund’s Board of Trustees has three standing committees (an audit committee, a brokerage and services committee and a governance committee). Each committee is comprised solely of “Independent Trustees”, which is defined for purposes herein as trustees who: (1) are not “interested persons” of the Fund as defined by the 1940 Act and (2) are “independent” of the respective Fund as defined by the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange and Chicago Stock Exchange listing standards.

Each Board’s audit committee consists of Messrs. Choate, Dammeyer and Kennedy. In addition to being Independent Trustees as defined above, each of these Trustees also meets the additional independence requirements for audit committee members as defined by the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange and Chicago Stock Exchange listing standards. The audit committee makes recommendations to the Board of Trustees concerning the selection of each Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm, reviews with such independent registered public accounting firm the scope and results of each Fund’s annual audit and considers any comments which the independent registered public accounting firm may have regarding each Fund’s financial statements, accounting records or internal controls. Each Board of Trustees has adopted a formal written charter for the audit committee which sets forth the audit committee’s responsibilities. The audit committee charter for each of the Funds is available on Van Kampen’s web site at www.vankampen.com. The audit committee has reviewed and discussed the financial statements of each Fund with management as well as with the independent registered public accounting firm of each Fund, and discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed under the Statement of Auditing Standards No. 61. The audit committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required under Independence Standard Board Standard No. 1 and has discussed with the independent registered public accountants their independence. Based on this review, the audit committee recommended to the Board of Trustees of each Fund that each Fund’s audited financial statements be included in each Fund’s annual report to shareholders for the most recent fiscal year for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Each member of the Fund’s audit committee is deemed an audit committee financial expert.

Each Board’s brokerage and services committee consists of Mesdames Heagy and Woolsey and Mr. Sonnenschein. The brokerage and services committee reviews each Fund’s allocation of brokerage transactions and soft-dollar practices and reviews the transfer agency and shareholder servicing arrangements.

15

Each Board’s governance committee consists of Messrs. Arch, Kerr and Nelson. In addition to being Independent Trustees as defined above, each of these Trustees also meets the additional independence requirements for nominating committee members as defined by the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange and Chicago Stock Exchange listing standards. The governance committee identifies individuals qualified to serve as Independent Trustees on the Board and on committees of the Board, advises the Board with respect to Board composition, procedures and committees, develops and recommends to the Board a set of corporate governance principles applicable to the respective Fund, monitors corporate governance matters and makes recommendations to the Board, and acts as the administrative committee with respect to Board policies and procedures, committee policies and procedures and codes of ethics. The governance committee charter for each of the Funds, which includes each Fund’s nominating policies, is available on Van Kampen’s web site at www.vankampen.com. The Independent Trustees of the respective Fund select and nominate any other nominee Independent Trustees for the respective Fund. While the Independent Trustees of the respective Fund expect to be able to continue to identify from their own resources an ample number of qualified candidates for the Board of Trustees as they deem appropriate, they will consider nominations from shareholders to the Board. Nominations from shareholders should be in writing and sent to the Independent Trustees as described below.

During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008, the Board of Trustees of VCV, VMV, VPV, VKI, VGM, VIM, VTJ, VTN, VMO, VKL, VKQ and VOQ each held 16 meetings.

Shareholder Communications

Shareholders may send communications to each Fund’s Board of Trustees. Shareholders should send communications intended for the Board by addressing the communication directly to the Board (or individual Board members) and/or otherwise clearly indicating in the salutation that the communication is for the Board (or individual Board members) and by sending the communication to either the applicable Fund’s office or directly to such Board member(s) at the address specified for such Trustee above. Other shareholder communications received by any Fund not directly addressed and sent to the Board will be reviewed and generally responded to by management, and will be forwarded to the Board only at management’s discretion based on the matters contained therein.

Shareholder Approval

With respect to Proposal 1(a) through (d), the holders of Common Shares and Preferred Shares, where applicable, voting as a separate class, will vote on the respective nominees designated to be elected by such class of shares. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of each Fund present at the Meeting in person or by proxy is required to elect each nominee for Trustee designated to be elected by the Common Shares and, where applicable, the affirmative vote of a plurality of the Preferred Shares of each Fund present at the Meeting in person or by proxy is required to elect each nominee for Trustee designated to be elected by the Preferred Shares. The Board of Trustees recommends a vote “FOR ALL” of the nominees.

Shareholder Information

As of April 23, 2009, to the knowledge of the Funds, no shareholder owned beneficially more than 5% of a class of a Fund’s outstanding Shares. As of April 23, 2009, certain Trustees and executive officers owned, directly or beneficially, the number of Common Shares of each Fund as set forth in Annex G. Except as indicated on Annex G, as of April 23, 2009, the Trustees and executive officers of the Funds individually and as a group owned less than 1% of the outstanding Shares of each Fund. Trustees and executive officers who do not own any Common Shares of the Funds or Funds which are not owned by any Trustee or executive officers have been omitted from the table in Annex G. As of April 23, 2009, no Trustees or executive officers owned any Preferred Shares of the Funds. Excluding deferred compensation balances as described in the Compensation Table, as of April 23, 2009, each Trustee beneficially owned equity securities of the Funds and other funds in the Fund Complex overseen by the Trustees in the dollar range amounts as specified in Annex H. Including deferred compensation balances as described in the Compensation Table, as of April 23, 2009, each Trustee owned the dollar ranges of amounts of the Funds and other funds in the Fund Complex as specified in Annex I.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 30(f) of the 1940 Act and Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, require each of the Funds’ Trustees, officers, investment adviser, affiliated persons of the investment adviser and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Fund’s equity securities to file forms with the SEC and the New York Stock Exchange or American Stock Exchange, as applicable, reporting their affiliation with the Fund and reports of ownership and changes in ownership of Fund Shares. These persons and entities are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Fund with copies of all such forms they file. Based on a review of these forms furnished to each Fund, each Fund believes that during its last fiscal year, its Trustees, officers, Adviser and affiliated persons of the Adviser complied with the applicable filing requirements except as follows: a Form 4 Filing relating to common shares of each of VGM, VMO, VIM and VKI on behalf of Rod Dammeyer, a trustee of the Funds, inadvertently was not filed in a timely manner; two Form 4 Filings relating to common shares of VVR on behalf of Linda Hutton Heagy and Wayne W. Whalen, each a trustee of the Funds, were inadvertently not filed in a timely manner; two Form 4 Filings relating to common shares of VVR and VBF on behalf of Hugo F. Sonnenschein, a trustee of the Funds, were inadvertently not filed in a timely manner; a Form 3 Filing relating to VBF on behalf of Christian Roth, a portfolio manager of such Fund, inadvertently was not filed in a timely manner; and Form 3 Filings relating to all Funds on behalf of Kevin Klingert, an officer of the Funds, were inadvertently not filed in a timely manner.

21

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Trustees of each Fund, including a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of each Fund (as defined by the 1940 Act), has selected Deloitte & Touche LLP (“D&T”) as the independent registered public accountants to examine the financial statements for the current fiscal year of each Fund. The selection of D&T for the current fiscal year was recommended and approved by each Fund’s audit committee and approved by each Fund’s Board. Each of the Funds knows of no direct or indirect financial interest of D&T in such Fund.

Audit and Other Fees

Each Fund and certain “covered entities” were billed the amounts listed on Annex J by D&T during such Fund’s most recent two fiscal years.

The audit committee of each Board has considered whether the provision of non-audit services performed by D&T to the Funds and “covered entities” is compatible with maintaining D&T’s independence in performing audit services. The audit committee also is required to pre-approve services to “covered entities” to the extent that the services are determined to have a direct impact on the operations or financial reporting of the Funds and 100% of such services were pre-approved by the audit committee pursuant to the audit committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures. The Board’s pre-approval policies and procedures are included as part of the Board’s audit committee charter, which is available on Van Kampen’s web site at www.vankampen.com.

It is not expected that representatives of D&T will attend the Meeting. In the event representatives of D&T do attend the Meeting, they will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will be available to answer appropriate questions.

Expenses

The expenses of preparing, printing and mailing the enclosed form of proxy, the accompanying Notice and this Proxy Statement and all other costs, in connection with the solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Funds. The total amount of these expenses will be allocated among each of the Funds based upon the total number of shareholders for each Fund in relation to the total number of shareholders for all of the Funds participating in the Meeting. The Funds will also reimburse banks, brokers and others for their reasonable expenses in forwarding proxy solicitation material to the beneficial owners of the shares of the Funds. In order to obtain the necessary quorum at the Meeting, additional solicitation may be made by mail, telephone, telegraph, facsimile or personal interview by representatives of the Funds, the Adviser or Van Kampen Investments, by the transfer agents of the Funds and by dealers or their representatives. The Funds may also retain Computershare Fund Services, a professional proxy solicitation firm to assist in additional proxy solicitation. The estimated

22

cost of additional telephone solicitation by Computershare Fund Services is approximately $2,000 per Fund.

Shareholder Proposals

To be considered for presentation at a shareholders’ meeting, rules promulgated by the SEC generally require that, among other things, a shareholder’s proposal must be received at the offices of the relevant Fund a reasonable time before a solicitation is made. Shareholder proposals intended to be presented at the year 2010 annual meeting of shareholders for a Fund pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), must be received by the Fund at the Fund’s principal executive offices by January 4, 2010. In order for proposals made outside of Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act to be considered “timely” within the meaning of Rule 14a-4(c) under the Exchange Act, such proposals must be received by the Fund at the Fund’s principal executive offices not later than March 31, 2010. Timely submission of a proposal does not necessarily mean that such proposal will be included. Any shareholder who wishes to submit a proposal for consideration at a meeting of such shareholder’s Fund should send such proposal to the respective Fund at the principal executive offices of the Fund at 522 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10036, Attn: Van Kampen Asset Management General Counsel’s Office.

General

Management of each Fund does not intend to present and does not have reason to believe that others will present any other items of business at the Meeting. However, if other matters are properly presented to the Meeting for a vote, the proxies will be voted upon such matters in accordance with the judgment of the persons acting under the proxies.

A list of shareholders of each Fund entitled to be present and vote at the Meeting will be available at the offices of the respective Fund, 1 Parkview Plaza, Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois 60181-5555, for inspection by any shareholder during regular business hours for ten days prior to the date of the Meeting.

Failure of a quorum to be present at the Meeting for any Fund may necessitate adjournment and may subject such Fund to additional expense.

If you cannot be present in person, you are requested to fill in, sign and return the enclosed proxy card, for which no postage is required if mailed in the United States, or record your voting instructions by telephone or via the internet promptly.
