                                 APRIL ___, 2007

Dear Shareholder,

     I would like to invite you to an upcoming  special  meeting of shareholders
to be held on June 27, 2007 at 10:30 a.m.  Shareholders  of  American  Century's
fixed  income  and  quantitative  equity  funds are  being  asked to vote on the
election of  Trustees/Directors to the funds' Boards of  Trustees/Directors.  In
addition,  holders of  Advisor  Class  shares of certain  funds will be asked to
approve a change in the Advisor Class fee structure.  More detailed  information
is contained  in the enclosed  materials.  The Boards of  Trustees/Directors  of
these funds,  including all of the Independent  Trustees/Directors,  unanimously
approved and recommend that you vote FOR the proposals.

     The proposal to change the Advisor  Class fee structure is part of a larger
set of  initiatives  designed  to  streamline  American  Century's  mutual  fund
offerings  and better align them with  investor  buying  preferences  and market
opportunities.  If these additional initiatives apply to your fund, they will be
presented  for  your  consideration  and  approval  in a  separate  set of proxy
materials.

     Your  vote is  extremely  important,  no  matter  how  large or small  your
holdings.  Please review the enclosed materials and vote online, by phone, or by
signing and returning your proxy card(s) in the enclosed postage-paid  envelope.
If we do not hear from you after a reasonable  time, you may receive a call from
our proxy  solicitor,  Automatic Data Processing,  Inc. (ADP),  reminding you to
vote.  If you have any questions or need  assistance  in  completing  your proxy
card(s), please contact ADP at 1-877-256-6083.

         Thank you for investing with American Century Investments.

Sincerely,

IMPORTANT NEWS FOR SHAREHOLDERS

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q. WHEN WILL THE SPECIAL MEETING BE HELD? WHO CAN VOTE?

A. The special  meeting will be held on Wednesday,  June 27, 2007, at 10:30 a.m.
Central  time at American  Century's  office at 4500 Main  Street,  Kansas City,
Missouri.  Please note, this will be a business  meeting only. No  presentations
about the funds are planned. If you owned shares of one of the impacted funds at
the close of business on April 13, 2007,  you are entitled to vote,  even if you
later sold the shares.  Each  shareholder  is entitled to one vote per dollar of
shares owned, with fractional dollars voting proportionally.

Q. WHO ARE THE EIGHT NOMINEES?

A.  The  eight   Nominees   include  six  current   members  of  the  Boards  of
Trustees/Directors (the "Boards"),  John Freidenrich,  Ronald J. Gilson, Kathryn
A. Hall,  Myron S. Scholes,  John B. Shoven and Jeanne D.  Wohlers;  an advisory
member to the Boards,  Peter F.  Pervere;  and the current  President  and Chief
Executive Officer of American Century Companies, Inc., and an advisory member to
the Boards, Jonathan S. Thomas.

Q. WHAT IS THE PROPOSED CHANGE TO THE ADVISOR CLASS FEE STRUCTURE?

A. If approved, the change in the Advisor Class fee structure will result in:

     o    A decrease  of 25 basis  points in the Rule  12b-1 fee  charged by the
          Advisor Class of the Advisor Funds; and

     o    A  simultaneous  increase  of 25 basis  points  (0.25%) in the unified
          management fee for the Advisor Class of the Advisor  Funds,  resulting
          in no change to the total expense  ratio.  The increase in the unified
          management  fee and  corresponding  decrease in the Rule 12b-1 fee are
          designed   to   move   the   fee  for   the   provision   of   certain
          shareholder/administrative  services  from the Rule  12b-1  fee to the
          unified  management fee. This modification will make the fee structure
          of the Advisor Class shares of the Advisor Funds more  consistent with
          the other share classes of the American Century Funds.


Q. HOW WILL THE CHANGE TO THE ADVISOR CLASS FEE STRUCTURE  AFFECT MY INVESTMENTS
IN THE FUNDS?

A. If  approved,  neither  your  investment  nor your total  expense  ratio will
change.  As stated  above,  if approved the proposal  will result in the Advisor
Class  having a 25 basis  point  increase in its  unified  management  fee and a
simultaneous  25 basis  point  decrease in the Rule 12b-1 fee,  resulting  in no
change to the Advisor Class's total expense ratio.

Q. WILL THE CHANGE TO THE ADVISOR CLASS FEE STRUCTURE  CAUSE ME TO PAY ANY SALES
CHARGES?

A. No. If approved, a front-end charge (load) will be added to the Advisor Class
shares of International Bond, Diversified Bond, High-Yield,  Prime Money Market,
Disciplined Growth, Equity Growth, Global Gold, and Income and Growth.  However,
it will not apply to Advisor  Fund  shares  held at the time of the  change,  or
subsequently purchased in the same accounts.

Q. HOW DO THE BOARDS OF EACH FUND RECOMMEND THAT I VOTE?

A. The Boards, including all of the Independent Trustees/Directors,  unanimously
recommend you vote FOR all of the proposals. For a discussion of the factors the
Boards considered in approving these proposals, see the accompanying materials.

Q. MY HOLDINGS IN THE FUNDS ARE SMALL, WHY SHOULD I VOTE?

A. Your vote makes a difference. If many shareholders do not vote their proxies,
your fund may not receive  enough votes to go forward with its special  meeting.
This means  additional  costs will be incurred to solicit votes to determine the
outcome of the proposals.

Q. WHAT HAPPENS IF ANY ONE PROPOSAL IS NOT APPROVED BY SHAREHOLDERS?

A. Each  proposal is  separate,  and is not  dependent  upon the approval of any
other  proposal.  However,  if a proposal  relating to the change in the Advisor
Class fee structure does not receive shareholder approval with respect to one or
more  Advisor  Funds,  then  American  Century may elect not to proceed with the
change for any of the Advisor Funds.

Q. WHY ARE MULTIPLE PROXY CARDS ENCLOSED?

A. You will  receive  a proxy  card  for  each of the  funds in which  you are a
shareholder.  In  addition,  if you own  shares  of the  same  fund in  multiple
accounts  that are titled  differently,  you will  receive a proxy card for each
account.

Q. HOW DO I CAST MY VOTE?

A. You may vote online,  by phone,  by mail,  by fax or in person at the special
meeting. To vote online,  access the Web site listed on a proxy card. To vote by
telephone,  call the toll-free  number listed on a proxy card. To vote online or
by  telephone,  you will need the number that appears in the gray box on each of
your proxy cards. To vote by mail, complete, sign and send us the enclosed proxy
card(s) in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. To vote by fax, complete and sign
the proxy card(s) and fax both sides to the  toll-free  number listed on a proxy
card. You also may vote in person at the special meeting on Wednesday,  June 27,
2007.  If you need more  information  or have any  questions on how to cast your
vote, call our proxy solicitor at 1-877-256-6083.

YOUR VOTE IS  IMPORTANT.  PLEASE  VOTE  TODAY AND AVOID THE NEED FOR  ADDITIONAL
SOLICITATION EXPENSES.

                                   PROPOSAL 1

                         ELECTION OF TRUSTEES/DIRECTORS



OVERVIEW AND RELATED INFORMATION

     The Board of  Trustees/Directors  of each  Issuer  currently  includes  the
following  six (6)  Trustees/Directors:  John  Freidenrich,  Ronald  J.  Gilson,
Kathryn A.  Hall,  Myron S.  Scholes,  John B.  Shoven  and  Jeanne D.  Wohlers.
Additionally,  Peter F.  Pervere  and  Jonathan  S.  Thomas  currently  serve as
advisory  members to the Boards.  The current  nominating  members of the Boards
have nominated the six  Trustees/Directors  listed above, along with Mr. Pervere
and Mr. Thomas for election to the Boards. Hereafter the six (6) current members
of the  Boards  listed  above  along with Mr.  Pervere  and Mr.  Thomas  will be
referred to as the  "Trustees" or the  "Nominees."(1)  It is being proposed that
the  shareholders  of each  Issuer  approve  the  Trustees.  If  approved by the
shareholders,  each Trustee of each Issuer will serve  indefinitely until his or
her  death,  retirement,  resignation  or removal  from  office.  The  mandatory
retirement  age  for  Trustees  who are not  "interested  persons"  (hereinafter
"Independent Trustees") as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") is 73. However,  the mandatory  retirement age
may be  extended  for a period not to exceed two years with the  approval of the
remaining Independent Trustees. Each Trustee currently oversees 43 portfolios of
the Issuers.  Mr. Thomas  oversees an  additional 66 funds as an advisory  board
member for other American Century funds.

(1)  Certain of the Issuers are organized as Massachusetts business trusts while
     others are organized as Maryland  corporations.  For  convenience  purposes
     only, the Directors of the Issuers  organized as Maryland  corporations and
     the Trustees of the Issuers organized as Massachusetts  business trusts are
     being collectively referred to as the "Trustees" or the "Nominees."

     Further  information  regarding each of the Nominees is provided below. Mr.
Thomas is the only Nominee who, if elected,  would be an "interested  person" as
that term is defined in the 1940 Act because he  currently  serves as  President
and Chief  Executive  Officer of American  Century  Companies,  Inc., the parent
company of the Advisor.  The  remaining  Nominees are not  "interested  persons"
under the 1940 Act and therefore  will be referred to as  Independent  Trustees.
The persons  named as proxies on the  enclosed  proxy  card(s) will vote for the
election of all of the nominees  unless  authority to vote for any or all of the
Nominees is withheld.

     All of the  Nominees  have  consented  to serve as  trustees/directors,  if
elected.  In  case  a  nominee  shall  be  unable  or  shall  fail  to  act as a
trustee/director by virtue of an unexpected occurrence, persons named as proxies
will vote in their  discretion for such other nominee or nominees as the current
Trustees may recommend.

     INFORMATION REGARDING THE NOMINEES

     The following table presents additional information about the Nominees. The
mailing  address for each  Nominee is 4500 Main Street,  Kansas  City,  Missouri
64111.

(1)  MR. THOMAS WOULD BE AN "INTERESTED"  TRUSTEE OF THE ISSUERS FOR PURPOSES OF
     THE 1940 ACT. MR. THOMAS IS THE PRESIDENT  AND CHIEF  EXECUTIVE  OFFICER OF
     AMERICAN CENTURY COMPANIES, INC.


     RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE BOARDS

     The Boards  oversee the management of the Issuers and the Funds and meet at
least quarterly to review reports about fund operations.  Although the Boards do
not manage the Funds,  they have hired American Century  Investment  Management,
Inc. (the "Advisor") to do so. The Boards,  in carrying out their fiduciary duty
under the 1940 Act, are  responsible  for approving new and existing  management
contracts with the Advisor.

     The Boards  have the  authority  to manage the  business  of the Issuers on
behalf of their  investors,  and they have all powers necessary or convenient to
carry  out that  responsibility.  Consequently,  the  Boards  may  adopt  bylaws
providing for the  regulation  and  management of the affairs of the Issuers and
may amend and repeal them to the extent  that such  bylaws do not  reserve  that
right to the Issuers' investors. They may fill vacancies in or reduce the number
of board  members,  and may elect and  remove  such  officers  and  appoint  and
terminate such agents as they consider appropriate.  They may appoint from their
own number and establish and terminate one or more committees  consisting of two
or more  trustees who may exercise the powers and  authority of the Board to the
extent  that the  trustees  determine.  They  may,  in  general,  delegate  such
authority  as they  consider  desirable  to any officer of the  Issuers,  to any
committee  of the Board and to any agent or  employee  of the  Issuers or to any
custodian,  transfer agent, or principal  underwriter.  Any  determination as to
what is in the interests of the Issuers made by the trustees in good faith shall
be conclusive. The Boards met five times in 2006.

     STANDING BOARD COMMITTEES

     Each  Board has an Audit  and  Compliance  Committee  which  approves  each
Issuer's  engagement of the independent  registered  public  accounting firm and
recommends approval of such engagement to the Independent  Trustees and oversees
the activities of the accounting  firm. The Audit and Compliance  Committee also
receives  reports  concerning  compliance  affecting  the  Issuers  and from the
Advisor's  internal  audit  department.   The  Audit  and  Compliance  Committee
currently  consists of Jeanne D. Wohlers,  Ronald J. Gilson and Peter F. Pervere
(in an advisory capacity).  The Audit and Compliance Committee met four times in
2006.

     Each Board has a Corporate  Governance  Committee  which is responsible for
reviewing board procedures and committee  structures.  The Corporate  Governance
Committee also considers and recommends  individuals for nomination as Trustees,
and may recommend the creation of new committees. The names of potential Trustee
candidates may be drawn from a number of sources, including recommendations from
members of the Board,  management (in the case of Interested  Trustees only) and
shareholders.  Shareholders  may submit  Trustee  nominations  to the  Corporate
Secretary,  American Century Funds, P.O. Box 410141,  Kansas City, MO 64141. All
such  nominations  will be forwarded to the  committee  for  consideration.  The
committee  also may  recommend  the  creation of new  committees,  evaluate  the
membership structure of new and existing committees,  consider the frequency and
duration  of  Board  and   committee   meetings  and   otherwise   evaluate  the
responsibilities,  processes,  resources,  performance  and  compensation of the
Board.  The  Corporate  Governance  Committee  currently  consists  of Ronald J.
Gilson, John Freidenrich and John B. Shoven. The Corporate  Governance Committee
met one time in 2006.

     Each  Board  also  has a  Portfolio  Committee  and a  Quality  of  Service
Committee.  The Portfolio Committee reviews quarterly the investment  activities
and  strategies  used to manage  the  Funds'  assets.  The  committee  regularly
receives reports from portfolio  managers,  credit analysts and other investment
personnel  concerning the Funds' investments.  The Portfolio Committee currently
consists  of Myron S.  Scholes,  John  Freidenrich,  and  Kathryn A.  Hall.  The
Portfolio Committee met four times during 2006.

     The Quality of Service  Committee reviews the level and quality of transfer
agent and administrative  services provided to the Funds and their shareholders.
It  receives  and  reviews  reports  comparing  those  services to those of fund
competitors  and seeks to improve such services where feasible and  appropriate.
The Quality of Service Committee currently consists of John B. Shoven and Ronald
J. Gilson. The Qualify of Service Committee met five times in 2006.

     BOARD COMPENSATION

     Each Independent  Trustee receives  compensation for service as a member of
the Boards,  based on a schedule  that takes into account the number of meetings
attended and the assets of the Funds for which the meetings are held. These fees
and expenses are allocated among the Issuers based in part on their relative net
assets. Under the terms of each management agreement with the Advisor, the Funds
are responsible for paying such fees and expenses. For each Issuer's last fiscal
year,  each Issuer and the American  Century  Family of Funds paid the following
amounts to Trustees:

NOTE:  NONE  OF  THE  INTERESTED  TRUSTEES  OR  OFFICERS  OF THE  FUNDS  RECEIVE
COMPENSATION FROM THE FUNDS.

     The Issuers  have  adopted the  American  Century  Mutual  Funds'  Deferred
Compensation Plan. Under the plan, the Independent Trustees may defer receipt of
all or any part of the fees to be paid to them for  serving as  trustees  of the
Funds.

     All deferred fees are credited to an account established in the name of the
Trustees.  The amounts credited to the account then increase or decrease, as the
case may be, in accordance  with the  performance of one or more of the American
Century funds that are selected by the Trustee. The account balance continues to
fluctuate in accordance with the performance of the selected fund or funds until
final  payment of all amounts  credited to the account.  Trustees are allowed to
change their designation of funds from time to time.

     No deferred fees are payable until such time as a trustee resigns,  retires
or otherwise ceases to be a member of the Boards.  Trustees may receive deferred
fee  account  balances  either in a lump sum payment or in  substantially  equal
installment  payments to be made over a period not to exceed 10 years.  Upon the
death of a trustee,  all remaining deferred fee account balances are paid to the
trustee's beneficiary or, if none, to the trustee's estate.

     The plan is an unfunded plan and, accordingly, the Funds have no obligation
to segregate assets to secure or fund the deferred fees. To date, the Funds have
voluntarily  funded their  obligations.  The rights of Trustees to receive their
deferred fee account balances are the same as the rights of a general  unsecured
creditor  of  the  Funds.  The  plan  may  be  terminated  at  any  time  by the
administrative  committee of the plan. If  terminated,  all deferred fee account
balances will be paid in a lump sum.

     Exhibit A to this  Proxy  Statement  shows the  dollar  range the  Trustees
beneficially  owned as of December 31, 2006 in the equity  securities  in any of
the Funds, and, on an aggregate basis, equity securities in all of the Issuers.


     BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF AFFILIATES BY PROPOSED INDEPENDENT TRUSTEES

     No Independent Trustee or his or her immediate family members  beneficially
owned shares of the Advisor,  the principal  underwriter  of a Fund or any other
person  directly  or  indirectly  controlling,  controlled  by, or under  common
control with the Advisor or the principal underwriter as of December 31, 2006.

     OFFICERS

     The  following  table  presents  certain  information  about the  executive
officers of the Issuers.  Each  officer  serves as an officer for each of the 15
investment  companies  advised by the  Advisor  or by  American  Century  Global
Investment  Management,  Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Advisor,  unless
otherwise  noted. No officer is compensated for his or her service as an officer
of the Funds.  The listed  officers are interested  persons of the Funds and are
appointed or  re-appointed  on an annual basis.  The mailing address for each of
the officers listed below is 4500 Main Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64111.

     (a) Audit Fees

     These fees relate to professional  services  rendered by PwC for the audits
of the Funds' annual financial  statements or services  normally  provided by an
independent  public  accountant in  connection  with  statutory  and  regulatory
filings or  engagements.  These  services  included the audits of the  financial
statements of the Funds,  issuance of consents,  income tax provision procedures
and assistance  with review of documents  filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

     (b) Audit Related Fees

     These fees relate to assurance  and related  services by PwC in  connection
with semi-annual financial statements.

     (c) Tax Fees

     These  fees  relate  to  professional  services  rendered  by PwC  for  tax
compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. These services relate to the review of
the  Funds'  federal  and  state  income  tax  returns,  review  of  excise  tax
calculations  and returns,  and a review of the Funds'  calculations  of capital
gains and income distributions.

     (d) All Other Fees

     These fees relate to products and services provided by PwC other than those
reported under "Audit Fees," "Audit-Related Fees," and "Tax Fees."


     AUDIT COMMITTEE PRE-APPROVAL POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

     The Audit Committee  approves the engagement of the accountant prior to the
accountant  rendering  any  audit or  non-audit  services  to the  Issuers.  The
aggregate  non-audit fees billed by PwC for services rendered to the Advisor and
service  affiliates  for the years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006
were $100,000 and $253,580, respectively.

     The Audit  Committee has  considered  whether the  provisions for non-audit
services  to  the  Funds  and  the  Funds'   affiliates  that  did  not  require
pre-approval is compatible with maintaining PwC's independence.

         SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL

     Proposal 1, the election of the  Trustees,  must be approved by a plurality
of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the Meeting at which a quorum exists.
Each Issuer will vote separately for the election of Trustees.  The shareholders
of each Issuer will vote  together as a single class and the voting power of the
shares of each series will be counted together in determining the results of the
voting for Proposal 1.

 THE BOARDS RECOMMEND THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS VOTE TO ELECT EACH OF THE NOMINEES.


                                   PROPOSAL 2

    APPROVAL OF A CHANGE IN THE FEE STRUCTURE OF THE ADVISOR CLASS SHARES OF
                                THE ADVISOR FUNDS


     OVERVIEW AND RELATED INFORMATION

     On December 8, 2006, the Boards approved,  subject to shareholder approval,
an increase of 25 basis  points  (0.25%) in the unified  management  fee for the
Advisor Class of the Advisor Funds while simultaneously  approving a decrease of
25 basis  points  in the Rule  12b-1 fee  charged  by the  Advisor  Class of the
Advisor Funds,  resulting in no change to the total expense ratio.  The increase
in the unified  management fee and corresponding  decrease in the Rule 12b-1 fee
are    designed   to   move   the   fee   for   the    provision    of   certain
shareholder/administrative  services  from the  Rule  12b-1  fee to the  unified
management fee. Such  shareholder/administrative  services may include providing
individual  and custom  investment  advisory  services  to clients of  financial
intermediaries as well as recordkeeping, and administrative services for clients
that would  otherwise be performed by American  Century's  transfer  agent.  The
shareholder/administrative  services,  which will not change,  do not  encompass
distribution-related  services. This modification will make the fee structure of
the Advisor  Class shares of the Advisor  Funds more  consistent  with the other
share classes of the American Century Funds. Any reimbursement paid to financial
intermediaries for the provision of shareholder/administrative services will now
be paid out of the unified  management  fee  received by the Advisor and not the
Rule 12b-1 fee.

     CONSEQUENCES OF APPROVAL OF THE CHANGE IN FEE STRUCTURE

     The proposed 25 basis point  increase in the unified  management fee is not
expected  to have any effect on the total  expense  ratio of the  Advisor  Class
shares of the Advisor Funds. As previously noted, the 25 basis point increase in
the  unified  management  fee will be offset by a  corresponding  decrease of 25
basis points in the Rule 12b-1 fee. If  shareholders do not approve the increase
in the unified management fee, then the administrative/shareholder  services fee
will continue to be paid out of the Rule 12b-1 fee and the proposed  decrease in
the Rule  12b-1 fee will not take  effect.  If  approved  by  shareholders,  the
current  advisory  contracts of the Advisor Funds will be amended to reflect the
25 basis point increase in the unified  management fee with an effective date of
September 1, 2007. Hereafter,  the amended contracts shall be referred to as the
"New  Advisory  Agreements."  If this Proposal is not approved by one or more of
the Advisor Classes of the Advisor Funds, then American Century may elect not to
proceed with the Proposal with respect to some or all of the Advisor Funds.

     This Proposal is part of a larger set of initiatives designed to streamline
American  Century's  mutual fund  offering and better  align them with  investor
buying  preferences  and  market  opportunities.  As part of this  larger set of
initiatives, the Boards recently approved reclassification of the A Class shares
of Diversified  Bond,  High-Yield and Prime Money Market as Advisor Class shares
of the same funds. Pursuant to this reclassification, the current A Class shares
would cease to exist;  the Change in Fee  Structure  Proposal  contained in this
proxy  would take  effect;  such  shares  would be  subject  to a maximum  4.50%
front-end  sales load;  and the Advisor Class shares would be renamed as A Class
shares.  However,  the  front-end  sales load will not apply to current  Advisor
Class  shareholders  who  purchase  additional  shares  in  the  same  accounts.
Additionally,  after the  Advisor  Class  shares  have been  renamed  as A Class
shares, shareholders will be able to exchange their shares for A Class shares of
other American Century Funds.

     Also as part  of  this  larger  set of  initiatives,  the  Boards  recently
approved a proposal to reclassify  the Advisor Class Shares of Tax-Free Bond and
Utilities as Investor Class shares of the same funds. Advisor Class shareholders
of these funds will  receive a separate  proxy  statement/prospectus  describing
this proposal in detail and will have an  opportunity to vote on it. If approved
by the Advisor Class shareholders of these two funds, Advisor Class shares would
cease to exist;  the Change in Fee  Structure  Proposal  contained in this proxy
would become moot; and  therefore,  even if approved the Change In Fee Structure
Proposal would not take effect for the Tax-Free Bond and Utilities.

     Lastly,  as part of this larger set of initiatives,  it is anticipated that
if the Change in Fee Structure Proposal is approved, the Advisor Class shares of
International Bond,  Disciplined Growth,  Equity Growth, Global Gold, and Income
and Growth will be renamed as "A Class" shares. Additionally,  it is anticipated
that a  maximum  front-end  sales  load  of  5.75%,  or  4.50%  in the  case  of
International Bond, will be imposed on the renamed A Class shares.  However, the
front-end  sales load will not apply to current Advisor Class  shareholders  who
purchase additional shares in the same accounts. Additionally, after the Advisor
Class shares have been renamed as A Class shares,  shareholders  will be able to
exchange their shares for A Class shares of other American Century Funds.

     COMPARISON  OF THE CURRENT  ADVISORY  AGREEMENTS  AND THE NEW ADVISORY
     AGREEMENT

     The terms of each New  Advisory  Agreement  are  identical  to those of the
corresponding  Current  Advisory  Agreement,  except  for  the  management  fees
payable,  which  have  been  increased  by 25 basis  points to  account  for the
transfer of the  shareholder/administrative  reimbursements  from the Rule 12b-1
fee to the unified  management fee, and the effective and termination dates. The
New  Advisory  Agreements  will  continue  in  effect  from year to year if such
continuance is approved for the Funds at least  annually in the manner  required
by the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations  thereunder.  Please see Exhibit C
for the current rate of compensation paid under the Current Advisory  Agreements
for each  Advisor  Fund and the pro forma fees to be paid under the New Advisory
Agreements after giving effect to the Change in Fee Structure Proposal.

     ADVISORY SERVICES

     The  services to be provided by the Advisor to the Advisor  Funds under the
New Advisory Agreement will be identical to those services that were provided by
the Advisor  under the Current  Advisory  Agreement.  Both the Current  Advisory
Agreement  and the New Advisory  Agreement  provide that the Advisor  will:  (i)
decide what  securities  to buy and sell for each Advisor  Fund's  portfolio and
(ii) select brokers and dealers to carry out portfolio  securities  transactions
for each Advisor Fund.

     EXPENSES

     The  provisions  of the  New  Advisory  Agreement  regarding  expenses  are
identical to the provisions of the Current Advisory  Agreement.  Under the terms
of the Current Advisory  Agreement and the New Advisory  Agreement,  the Advisor
will   bear  all   expenses   incurred   by  it  in  the   performance   of  its
responsibilities.  Each Advisor Fund is  responsible  for custody fees and other
charges and expenses of each Advisor Fund's  operations  such as compensation of
the  Independent  Trustees,  independent  accountants  and legal  counsel of the
Independent Trustees.

     COMPENSATION

     The following table shows the aggregate  amount paid by each Fund under the
unified  management  fee and Rule 12b-1 fee for 2006,  and the aggregate  amount
that would have been paid if the proposed unified  management fee and Rule 12b-1
fee had been in effect during 2006.

     BASIS FOR THE BOARDS' APPROVAL OF THE NEW ADVISORY AGREEMENT

     At  a  meeting  held  on  December  8,  2006,  the  Boards,  including  the
Independent  Trustees,  considered  and approved  the  proposed  increase to the
unified  management  fee of the Advisor  Class  shares of the Advisor  Funds and
accordingly  approved  the New Advisory  Agreement  for each  Advisor  Fund.  In
approving  the New  Advisory  Agreement,  the Boards  considered  the  following
factors:

     o    that the increase in the unified  management  fee is being proposed in
          connection with a simultaneous  decrease in the Rule 12b-1 fees of the
          Advisor Class;

     o    that there is not expected to be any change in the total expense ratio
          of the  Advisor  Class  as a result  of the  increase  in the  unified
          management fee;

     o    that  if  the  proposed  New  Advisory   Agreements  are  approved  by
          shareholders of the Advisor Class of International  Bond,  Disciplined
          Growth,  Equity  Growth,  Global  Gold,  and Income and Growth,  it is
          anticipated  that the  Advisor  Class  shares  will be renamed A Class
          shares,  which would  result in a front-end  sales load being added to
          the  class;  but would also  result in the load  being  waived for the
          accounts of current shareholders of those Advisor Classes who purchase
          future A Class shares through the same accounts; and

     o    that the increase in the unified  management  fee of the Advisor Class
          will  make  the  class  fee  structure  more  consistent  with the fee
          structure  of other share  classes of the American  Century  Funds and
          industry practices.

At the  meeting,  after  considering  all  information  presented,  the  Boards,
including the  Independent  Trustees,  approved each New Advisory  Agreement and
determined to recommend that shareholders approve the New Advisory Agreement. No
single factor was determinative in the Boards'  analysis.  The following summary
describes  the most  important,  but not all, of the factors  considered  by the
Boards.

     SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED

     The Boards  considered the services to be provided in consideration for the
25 basis point increase in the unified management fee. The Boards noted that the
administrative/shareholder  services  provided in consideration for the 25 basis
points would not change. Instead the  administrative/shareholder  services would
now be paid as part of the unified management fee instead of the Rule 12b-1 fee.
Such services may include providing  individual and custom  investment  advisory
services to clients of financial  intermediaries as well as  recordkeeping,  and
administrative  services  for  clients  that would  otherwise  be  performed  by
American Century's transfer agent. In some  circumstances,  the Advisor will pay
such service providers a fee for performing these services.

     COSTS AND PROFITABILITY

     The Boards did not request any specific information  regarding the costs of
the services to be provided in  consideration  of the 25 basis point increase in
the  unified  management  fee  because the Boards had  previously  reviewed  the
nature,    scope   and   costs    associated   with   the   provision   of   the
administrative/shareholder  services  as part of its  approval of the Rule 12b-1
plan on behalf of the  Advisor  Funds.  The Boards had  previously  found the 25
basis  point fee for  administrative/shareholder  services to be  reasonable  in
light of the scope and nature of the services provided.

     BENEFITS TO THE ADVISOR

     The Boards considered the information  presented  regarding the benefits to
the Advisor  from the increase in the unified  management  fee. The Boards noted
that the 25 basis point increase in the unified management fee would be paid out
by   the    Advisor    to   the    financial    intermediary    providing    the
administrative/shareholder  services to the beneficial owner of the shares.  The
increased  fee would only be  retained  by the Advisor to the extent that it was
providing  the  administrative/shareholder  services on behalf of  shareholders.
Currently,  the  Advisor  retains  the fee only to the  extent it  provides  the
administrative/shareholder  services on behalf of shareholders.  These would not
be a change in the amount the Advisor retains.

     ECONOMIES OF SCALE

     The Boards  considered  that the total  expense  ratio of the Advisor Class
would not change as a result of the increase in the unified  management  fee due
to the corresponding  decrease in the Rule 12b-1 fee. The Boards considered that
it  was  necessary  to  pay  financial   intermediaries   a  fee  for  providing
administrative/shareholder services to shareholders and that the payment of such
a fee by the Advisor Funds could help them  increase  their assets and therefore
potentially enable shareholders to realize future economies of scale. The Boards
recognized,  however, that the proposal would not increase payments to financial
intermediaries.

     Additional information regarding the factors the Boards considered in their
annual renewal of advisory contracts on behalf of the Advisor Funds can be found
in the report to  shareholders  for each  respective  Advisor Fund. To request a

     SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL

     Proposal 2, the approval of the change to the Advisor Class fee  structure,
must be approved in accordance with Section 15(a) of the 1940 Act which requires
the approval of the lesser of (i) more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the
applicable  class or (ii) 67% or more of the  shares of that  class  present  or
represented  by proxy at the Meeting if more than 50% of such shares are present
or represented by proxy.  The  shareholders  of the Advisor Class of each of the
Advisor Funds will vote separately on Proposal 2.


                  THE TRUSTEES OF THE ADVISOR FUNDS RECOMMEND
           THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE ADVISOR CLASS OF EACH ADVISOR
       FUND VOTE TO APPROVE THE CHANGE TO THE ADVISOR CLASS FEE STRUCTURE


OTHER INFORMATION

     MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS

     The Funds are not  required to hold  annual  shareholder  meetings,  unless
required  to do so in  order  to elect  trustees/directors  and for  such  other
purposes  as  may  be   prescribed  by  law  or  the  Funds'   Declarations   of
Trust/Articles  of  Incorporation.  Special  meetings of the shareholders may be
called by the Boards  for the  purpose of taking  action  upon any other  matter
deemed by the Boards to be necessary or desirable. A meeting of the shareholders
may be held at any place designated by the Boards. Written notice of any meeting
is required to be given by the Trustees.

     This Proxy Statement is being furnished in connection with the solicitation
of proxies by the Boards.  Proxies may be solicited by officers of the Funds, as
well  as  their  affiliates,   employees  and  agents.  In  addition,  financial
intermediaries  may solicit the proxy of the beneficial owners of the shares. It
is  anticipated  that the  solicitation  of proxies  will be  primarily by mail,
internet,   telephone,   facsimile  or  personal  interview.   Shareholders  who
communicate  proxies by  telephone  or by other  electronic  means have the same
power  and  authority  to  issue,   revoke  or  otherwise  change  their  voting
instructions  as  shareholders  submitting  proxies in written form.  Telephonic
solicitations  will follow  procedures  designed to ensure  accuracy and prevent
fraud.  The Advisor or an affiliate  thereof may  reimburse  banks,  brokers and
others for their reasonable expenses in forwarding proxy solicitation  materials
to  beneficial  owners of Fund shares,  and may  reimburse  certain  officers or
employees that it may employ for their  reasonable  expenses in assisting in the
solicitation of proxies from such  beneficial  owners.  The expenses  associated
with the  Proposals of this Proxy  Statement  will be paid by American  Century.
Such expenses include:  (a) expenses  associated with the preparation and filing
of this Proxy  Statement;  (b) postage;  (c) printing;  (d) accounting fees; (e)
legal fees incurred in the preparation of the Proxy Statement;  (f) solicitation
costs; and (g) other related  administrative or operational costs. Such expenses
are currently estimated to be approximately $1.9 million in the aggregate.

     DATE, TIME AND PLACE OF MEETING

     The  Meeting  will  be held on June  27,  2007 at the  principal  executive
offices of American Century,  4500 Main Street,  Kansas City, Missouri 64111, at
10:30 a.m., Central Time.

     USE AND REVOCATION OF PROXIES

     A shareholder executing and returning a proxy has the power to revoke it at
any time prior to its  exercise  by  executing  a  superseding  proxy  (i.e.,  a
later-dated  and signed  proxy),  by  submitting a notice of  revocation  to the
Secretary  of the  Funds  or by  subsequently  registering  his or her  vote  by
telephone or over the Internet.  In addition,  although  mere  attendance at the
Meeting  will not  revoke a proxy,  a  shareholder  present at the  Meeting  may
withdraw his or her proxy and vote in person. All shares represented by properly
executed  proxies  received  at or prior to the  Meeting,  unless  such  proxies
previously  have been revoked,  will be voted at the Meeting in accordance  with
the directions on the proxies. It is not anticipated that any matters other than
the approval of the Proposals will be brought before the Meeting.  If,  however,
any other business properly is brought before the Meeting, proxies will be voted
in accordance with the judgment of the persons designated on such proxies.

     VOTING RIGHTS AND REQUIRED VOTES

A quorum of  shareholders  is  necessary to hold a valid  meeting.  Shareholders
entitled to vote one-third of the issued and  outstanding  shares of each Issuer
or Class  must be  present  in person or by proxy,  to  constitute  a quorum for
purposes of voting on proposals relating to that Issuer or Class. Each dollar of
net  asset  value  is  entitled  to one  vote  with  fractional  dollars  voting
proportionally.  Shareholders  of each  Issuer  vote  separately  on  Proposal 1
(Election of  Directors).  Holders of Advisor  Class shares of the Advisor Funds
vote separately on Proposal 2 (Change in Advisor Class Fee Structure).  Approval
of Proposal 1 requires  the  approval of a plurality of the votes cast in person
or by proxy at the  Meeting at which a quorum  exists.  Approval  of  Proposal 2
requires  the  approval  of the  lesser of (i) more than 50% of the  outstanding
shares of the Advisor  Class of the  applicable  Fund or (ii) 67% or more of the
shares of that Class present or represented by proxy at the Meeting if more than
50% of such  shares are present or  represented  by proxy.  Broker-dealer  firms
holding  shares of any of the funds in  "street  name" for the  benefit of their
customers  and clients  will  request the  instructions  of such  customers  and
clients on how to vote their  shares  before the  Meeting.  Each Issuer or Class
will include shares held of record by  broker-dealers as to which such authority
has been granted in its  tabulation  of the total  number of shares  present for
purposes of  determining  whether the necessary  quorum of  shareholder  exists.
Properly  executed  proxies that are  returned but that are marked  "abstain" or
with  respect to which a  broker-dealer  has  declined  to vote on any  proposal
("broker  non-votes")  will be treated as shares that are present but which have
not been voted. For this reason,  abstentions and broker non-votes will have the
effect of a "no" vote for purposes of obtaining  the  requisite  approval of the
proposals.  In the event  that a quorum is not  present  or in the event  that a
quorum is present  but  sufficient  votes in favor of a  Proposal  have not been
received,  the persons named as proxies may propose one or more  adjournments of
the Meeting to permit further  solicitation  of proxies as to any Proposal.  Any
adjournment  of the  Meeting  for the  further  solicitation  of  proxies  for a
Proposal will require the affirmative  vote of a majority of the total number of
shares  entitled to vote on the Proposal  that are present in person or by proxy
at the Meeting to be adjourned.  If the Meeting is adjourned for more than sixty
days,  then the Funds are  required  to send a new  notice  to  shareholders  of
American  Century  California  Tax-Free and Municipal  Funds,  American  Century
International Bond Funds,  American Century  Investment Trust,  American Century
Government  Income Trust,  American Century Municipal Trust and American Century
Target  Maturities Trust. If the Meeting is adjourned for more than ninety days,
then the Funds are required to send a notice to shareholders of American Century
Quantitative  Equity Funds,  Inc. and American Century  Variable  Portfolios II,
Inc.

(1)  THE FUND PAYS THE ADVISOR A SINGLE,  UNIFIED  MANAGEMENT  FEE FOR ARRANGING
     ALL SERVICES  NECESSARY FOR THE FUND TO OPERATE.  THE FEE SHOWN IS BASED ON
     ASSETS  DURING THE FUND'S MOST RECENT  FISCAL YEAR.  THE FUND HAS A STEPPED
     FEE SCHEDULE. AS A RESULT, THE FUND'S UNIFIED MANAGEMENT FEE RATE GENERALLY
     DECREASES AS ASSETS INCREASE AND INCREASES AS ASSETS DECREASE.

     BROKER-DEALERS,    BANKS,   INSURANCE   COMPANIES   AND   OTHER   FINANCIAL

     ADDITION,  HALF OF THE  ADVISOR  CLASS  12B-1 FEE  (0.25%)  IS FOR  ONGOING

     UNIFIED  MANAGEMENT FEE. THE ADVISOR HAS REDUCED ITS UNIFIED MANAGEMENT FEE
     BY 0.25% FOR ADVISOR CLASS SHARES, BUT THE FEE FOR CORE INVESTMENT ADVISORY
     SERVICES IS THE SAME FOR ALL CLASSES.

(3)  THE 12B-1 FEE IS DESIGNED TO PERMIT  INVESTORS TO PURCHASE  SHARES  THROUGH
     BROKER-DEALERS,    BANKS,   INSURANCE   COMPANIES   AND   OTHER   FINANCIAL

     INTERMEDIARIES FOR DISTRIBUTION AND OTHER SHAREHOLDER SERVICES.

(4)  OTHER  EXPENSES,  WHICH  INCLUDE  THE  FEES  AND  EXPENSES  OF  THE  FUND'S
     INDEPENDENT  DIRECTORS AND THEIR LEGAL COUNSEL,  AS WELL AS INTEREST,  WERE
     LESS THAN 0.005% FOR THE MOST RECENT FISCAL YEAR.

(5)  OTHER  EXPENSES  INCLUDE THE FEES AND  EXPENSES  OF THE FUND'S  INDEPENDENT
     TRUSTEES AND ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AS WELL AS INTEREST.

     THE  MANAGER'S  EFFORTS  TO  MAINTAIN  A $1.00 NET ASSET  VALUE PER  SHARE.
