At the annual stockholders meeting, the Board of Directors also solicited
the views of the stockholders regarding whether the Fund should continue in
its current form. Although the results of the stockholder polling are
non-binding, the outcome will be taken seriously into consideration by the
Board as it evaluates the future of the Fund. In other words, the outcome of
the polling will constitute one key factor in the total mix of information
that the Board will consider in its ongoing evaluation of the future of the
Fund. The Board also takes other key factors into account in such evaluations,
including the costs and benefits of possible alternatives to continuing the
Fund in its current form.  The results of the solicitation were as follows:

                                       Affirmative	Against	      Abstain
                                       1,760,976	2,613,763	44,452
