Item 61
Additional Information About Minimum Required Investment
Shareholders can open a fund account with as little as $500 and
make subsequent investments in any amount. The minimum investment
is waived if you make regular investments weekly, semimonthly, or
monthly through automatic deductions through your bank checking
or savings account. Currently, Putnam is waiving the minimum, but
reserves the right to reject initial investments under the
minimum.
Item 85B
Additional Information About Errors and Omissions Policy
While no claims with respect to the Registrant/Series were filed
under such policy during the period, requests under such policy
for reimbursement of legal expenses and costs arising out of
claims of market timing activity in the Putnam Funds have been
submitted by the investment manager of the Registrant/Series.
