Exhibit 13(a)(4)(i) – Change in Registrant’s Independent Public Accountant

On September 24, 2021, the fund’s Audit and Compliance Committee and Board of Trustees
approved a change to the fund’s independent registered public accountant.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP was dismissed and Deloitte & Touche LLP was appointed as the
independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2022.

During the fiscal years ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2021 and the subsequent interim
period through September 24, 2021, there were no disagreements with PricewaterhouseCoopers
LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused
them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with their reports
or reportable events, as such term is described in Item 304(a)(1) of Regulation S-K of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The audit reports of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
on the financial statements of the fund for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2020 and August 31,
2021, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or
modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the fiscal years ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2021 and the subsequent interim
period through September 24, 2021, neither the fund, nor anyone on its behalf, consulted with
Deloitte & Touche LLP, on behalf of the fund, regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction (either completed or proposed), the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the fund’s financial statements, or any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event, as such terms are described in Item 304(a)(1) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The fund requested that PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP agrees with the statements contained above. A copy of the letter from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to the Securities and Exchange Commission is filed as an exhibit hereto.
