CDC Asset Management is the investment management arm of France's Caisse des Depots Group, which is a major diversified financial institution. Nvest will be renamed CDC Asset Management-North America and it will continue to use the holding company structure. Nvest affiliates will retain their investment independence, brand names, management and operating autonomy. The transaction will not affect daily operations of the Funds or the investment management activities of the Funds' investment advisers and sub-advisers. Certain Nvest affiliates, namely, Nvest Funds Management, L.P.; Back Bay Advisors, L.P.; Capital Growth Management Limited Partnership; Harris Associates L.P.; Jurika & Voyles, L.P.; Kobrick Funds LLC; Loomis, Sayles & Company, L.P.; Vaughan, Nelson, Scarborough & McCullough, L.P.; and Westpeak Investment Advisors, L.P. (collectively, the "Nvest Affiliates") serve as investment adviser or sub-adviser of the above-named funds. Consummation of the transaction with CDC is subject to a number of contingencies, including regulatory approvals and approval of the unitholders of Nvest, L.P. and Nvest Companies L.P. Under the rules for mutual funds the transaction may result in a change of control for the Nvest Affiliates and, therefore, an assignment of the Funds' investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements with the Nvest Affiliates, which generally is not permitted under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Consequently, it is anticipated that the Nvest Affiliates will seek approval of new agreements from the Funds' Board of Trustees and shareholders prior to consummation of the transaction. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2000. SP108-0600R
