JOINT PROXY STATEMENT VAN KAMPEN CLOSED-END FUNDS 1221 AVENUE OF THE AMERICAS NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10020 (800) 341-2929 JOINT ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS OCTOBER 28, 2005 INTRODUCTION This Joint Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the respective Board of Trustees (the "Trustees" or the "Board") of each of the Van Kampen Closed-End Funds listed on Annex A to this Joint Proxy Statement (the "Funds") of proxies to be voted at a Joint Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Funds, and all adjournments thereof (the "Meeting"), to be held at the offices of Van Kampen Investments Inc., 1 Parkview Plaza, Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois 60181-5555, on Friday, October 28, 2005, at 10:00 a.m. The Meeting will be an annual meeting for each Fund. The approximate mailing date of this Joint Proxy Statement and accompanying form of proxy is October 7, 2005. Participating in the Meeting are holders of common shares of beneficial interest (the "Common Shares") and, where applicable, the holders of preferred shares of beneficial interest (the "Preferred Shares") of each of the Funds as set forth in Annex A to this Joint Proxy Statement. The Common Shares and the Preferred Shares of the Funds sometimes are referred to herein collectively as the "Shares." The Meeting is scheduled as a joint meeting of the shareholders of the Funds because the shareholders of the Funds are expected to consider and vote on similar matters. The Board of Trustees has determined that the use of a joint proxy statement for the Meeting is in the best interest of the shareholders of each of the Funds. In the event that a shareholder of any Fund present at the Meeting objects to the holding of a joint meeting and moves for an adjournment of the meeting of such Fund to a time immediately after the Meeting so that such Fund's meeting may be held separately, the persons named as proxies will vote in favor of the adjournment. Annex A lists the abbreviated name and stock symbol by which the Funds sometimes are referred to in this Joint Proxy Statement. Please refer to Annex A for any questions you may have regarding whether your Fund is participating at the Meeting, defined terms relating to the Funds and abbreviated Fund names. The Board has fixed the close of business on September 28, 2005 as the record date (the "Record Date") for the determination of holders of Shares of each Fund entitled to vote at the Meeting. The number of issued and outstanding Common Shares and, where applicable, Preferred Shares of each Fund as of the Record Date is shown in Annex B to this Joint Proxy Statement. The following table summarizes the proposals to be presented at the Meeting for the Funds and the shareholders entitled to vote with respect to the proposals.
PROPOSAL/AFFECTED FUNDS AFFECTED SHAREHOLDERS - ----------------------- --------------------- 1. ELECTION OF TRUSTEES: (a) With respect to VNV, VKI, VKV, VCV, VPV, VMV, and VOT, to elect -- two Class III trustees, each by holders of Common Shares of each such Fund Common -- one Class III trustee by holders of Preferred Shares of each such Fund Preferred (b) With respect to VGM, VTJ, VKA, VFM, VIM, VTN, VAP, VOQ, VTP, VKQ, VNM, VTF, VMO, VPQ and VLT, to elect -- four Class I trustees, each by holders of Common Shares of each such Fund Common (c) With respect to VKL, to elect -- two Class II trustees, each by holders of Common Shares of the Fund Common -- one Class II trustee by holders of Preferred Shares of the Fund Preferred (d) With respect to VIN, to elect -- three Class II trustees, each by holders of Common Shares of the Fund Common
EACH FUND WILL FURNISH, WITHOUT CHARGE, A COPY OF ITS MOST RECENT ANNUAL REPORT (AND THE MOST RECENT SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT SUCCEEDING THE ANNUAL REPORT, IF ANY) TO ANY SHAREHOLDER UPON REQUEST. ANY SUCH REQUEST SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO THE RESPECTIVE FUND BY CALLING 1-800-341-2929 OR BY WRITING TO THE RESPECTIVE FUND AT 1 PARKVIEW PLAZA, PO BOX 5555, OAKBROOK TERRACE, ILLINOIS 60181-5555. VOTING Shareholders of a Fund on the Record Date are entitled to one vote per Share with respect to any proposal submitted to the shareholders of the Fund, with no Share having cumulative voting rights. The voting requirement for passage of a particular proposal depends on the nature of the proposal. With respect to Proposal 1(a) through (d), holders of Common Shares and Preferred Shares, where applicable, will vote as separate classes for the respective nominee(s) to be elected by such class of Shares. The affirmative vote of a plurality 2 of the Common Shares of a Fund present at the Meeting in person or by proxy is required to elect each nominee for Trustee of such Fund designated to be elected by the holders of the Common Shares of such Fund. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the Preferred Shares of a Fund present at the Meeting in person or by proxy is required to elect such nominee for trustee of such Fund designated to be elected by the holders of the Preferred Shares of such Fund. Election by plurality means those persons who receive the highest number of votes cast "FOR" up to the total number of persons to be elected as trustees at the Meeting shall be elected. The Board of Trustees of each Fund recommends that you cast your vote: - FOR ALL of the nominees for the Board of Trustees listed in the Joint Proxy Statement. An unfavorable vote on a proposal by the shareholders of one Fund will not affect the implementation of such proposal by another Fund, if the proposal is approved by the shareholders of the other Fund. An unfavorable vote on a proposal by the shareholders of a Fund will not affect such Fund's implementation of other proposals that receive a favorable vote. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of Trustees. All properly executed proxies received prior to the Meeting will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the instructions marked thereon. Proxies received prior to the Meeting on which no vote is indicated will be voted "FOR" each proposal as to which they are entitled to be voted. Abstentions and broker non-votes (i.e., where a nominee such as a broker, holding shares for beneficial owners, indicates that instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners, and the nominee does not exercise discretionary authority) are not treated as votes "FOR" a proposal. With respect to Proposal 1(a) through (d), abstentions and broker non-votes are disregarded since only votes "FOR" are considered in a plurality voting requirement. A majority of the outstanding Shares of a Fund entitled to vote must be present in person or by proxy to have a quorum for such Fund to conduct business at the Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be deemed present for quorum purposes. Shareholders who execute proxies may revoke them at any time before they are voted by filing with the respective Fund a written notice of revocation, by delivering a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or by attending the Meeting and voting in person. The Funds know of no business other than that mentioned in Proposal 1 of the Notice that will be presented for consideration at the Meeting. If any other matters are properly presented, it is the intention of the persons named on the enclosed proxy to vote proxies in accordance with their best judgment. In the event a quorum is present at the Meeting but sufficient votes to approve any of the proposals with respect to one or more Funds or proposals are not received, proxies (including abstensions and broker non-votes) would be voted in favor of one or more adjournments of the Meeting of the concerned Fund with respect to such proposal to permit further solicitation of proxies, 3 provided they determine that such an adjournment and additional solicitation is reasonable and in the interest of shareholders based on a consideration of all relevant factors, including the nature of the relevant proposal, the percentage of votes then cast, the percentage of negative votes then cast, the nature of the proposed solicitation activities and the nature of the reasons for such further solicitation. INVESTMENT ADVISER The investment adviser for each Fund is Van Kampen Asset Management (the "Adviser"). The Adviser is a wholly owned subsidiary of Van Kampen Investments Inc. ("Van Kampen Investments"). Van Kampen Investments is a diversified asset management company that administers more than three million retail investor accounts, has extensive capabilities for managing institutional portfolios and has more than $103 billion under management or supervision as of August 31, 2005. Van Kampen Investments is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley, a preeminent global financial services firm that maintains leading market positions in each of its three primary businesses: securities, asset management and credit services. Morgan Stanley is a full service securities firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities, investment banking, research and analysis, financing and financial advisory services. The principal business address of the Adviser and Van Kampen Investments is 1221 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10020. The Adviser, certain affiliates of the Adviser, and certain investment companies advised by the Adviser or its affiliates were named as defendants in a number of similar class action complaints which were consolidated. The amended complaint also names as defendants certain individual trustees and directors of certain investment companies advised by affiliates of the Adviser; the complaint does not, however, name the individual trustees of any Van Kampen funds. The complaint generally alleges that defendants violated their statutory disclosure obligations and fiduciary duties by failing properly to disclose (i) that the Adviser and certain affiliates of the Adviser allegedly offered economic incentives to brokers and others to steer investors to the funds advised by the Adviser or its affiliates rather than funds managed by other companies, and (ii) that the funds advised by the Adviser or its affiliates allegedly paid excessive commissions to brokers in return for their alleged efforts to steer investors to these funds. The complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages, rescissionary damages, fees and costs. The defendants' motion to dismiss this action is pending. After defendants moved to dismiss, the plaintiffs filed a motion for leave to amend the complaint, which is also pending. The proposed amendment drops all claims against the named investment companies, which are listed only as nominal defendants. The proposed amendment raises similar claims against the Adviser and its affiliates with respect to the investment companies advised by the Adviser or its affiliates, and, in addition, alleges that affiliates of the Adviser received undisclosed compensation for steering 4 investors into thirteen non-affiliated fund families. The defendants intend to continue to defend this action vigorously. While the defendants believe that they have meritorious defenses, the ultimate outcome of this matter is not presently determinable at this early stage of litigation. The Adviser and certain affiliates of the Adviser are also named as defendants in a derivative suit which additionally names as defendants individual trustees of certain Van Kampen funds; the named investment companies are listed as nominal defendants. The complaint alleges that defendants caused the Van Kampen funds to pay economic incentives to a proprietary sales force to promote the sale of Van Kampen funds. The complaint also alleges that the Van Kampen funds paid excessive commissions to Morgan Stanley and its affiliates in connection with the sales of the funds. The complaint seeks, among other things, the removal of the current trustees of the funds, rescission of the management contracts for the funds, disgorgement of profits by Morgan Stanley and its affiliates and monetary damages. This complaint has been coordinated with the action described in the preceding paragraph. The defendants have moved to dismiss this action and otherwise intend to defend it vigorously. This action is currently stayed until the later of (i) a ruling on the motion to dismiss the action described in the preceding paragraph or (ii) a ruling on a motion to dismiss the action described in the next paragraph. While the defendants believe that they have meritorious defenses, the ultimate outcome of this matter is not presently determinable at this early stage of litigation. The plaintiff in the action described in the preceding paragraph filed a separate derivative action against the Adviser, certain affiliates of the Adviser, the individual trustees of certain Van Kampen funds, and certain unaffiliated entities. The named investment companies are listed as nominal defendants. The complaint alleges that certain unaffiliated entities engaged in or facilitated market timing and late trading in the Van Kampen funds, and that the Adviser, certain affiliates of the Adviser, and the trustees failed to prevent and/or detect such market timing and late trading. The complaint seeks, among other things, the removal of the current trustees of the funds, rescission of the management contracts and distribution plans for the funds, disgorgement of fees and profits from the Adviser and its affiliates, and monetary damages. The defendants' motion to dismiss this action is pending. While the defendants believe that they have meritorious defenses, the ultimate outcome of this matter is not presently determinable at this early stage of litigation. The Adviser and one of the investment companies advised by the Adviser were named as defendants in a class action complaint generally alleging that the defendants breached their duties of care to long-term shareholders of the investment company by valuing portfolio securities at the closing prices of the foreign exchanges on which they trade without accounting for significant market information that became available after the close of the foreign exchanges but before calculation of net asset value. As a result, the complaint alleged, short-term traders 5 were able to exploit stale pricing information to capture arbitrage profits that diluted the value of shares held by long-term investors. The complaint sought unspecified compensatory damages, punitive damages, fees and costs. The case was recently dismissed with prejudice but remains subject to appeals. The Adviser, one of the investment companies advised by the Adviser, and certain officers and directors of the investment company are defendants in a class action filed in 2001 alleging that the defendants issued a series of prospectuses and registration statements that were materially false and misleading. Among other things, the complaint alleges that the prospectuses and registration statements contained misleading descriptions of the method defendants used to value senior loan interests in the fund's portfolio, and that defendants materially overstated the net asset value of the fund. The court has preliminarily approved a settlement agreement, subject to later hearing on the fairness of the settlement agreement. OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS Each Fund has entered into an accounting services agreement with the Adviser and each Fund, except VIN, has entered into a legal services agreement with Van Kampen. Van Kampen's principal business address is 1221 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10020. VLT has also entered into a support services agreement with Van Kampen Funds Inc. With respect to VKL, the Adviser and the Fund have entered into an administration agreement with Princeton Administrators, L.P. ("Princeton") for the provision of certain administrative services. Princeton's principal place of business is 800 Scudders Mill Road, Plainsboro, New Jersey 08536. PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF TRUSTEES Trustees are to be elected by the shareholders at the Meeting in the following manner: (a) With respect to VNV, VKI, VKV, VCV, VPV, VMV, and VOT, three Class III Trustees are to be elected at the Meeting, to serve until the later of each such Fund's Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2008 or until a successor has been duly elected and qualified. Holders of Common Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to two Class III Trustees (R. Craig Kennedy and Jack E. Nelson) designated to be elected by such class of shares. Holders of Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to one Class III Trustee, Hugo F. Sonnenschein, designated to be elected by such class of shares. An affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of each such Fund and a plurality of the Preferred Shares of each such Fund, is required to elect the respective nominees. It is the intention of the persons named in 6 the enclosed proxy to vote the Shares represented by them for the election of the respective nominees listed unless the proxy is marked otherwise. (b) With respect to VGM, VTJ, VKA, VFM, VIM, VTN, VAP, VOQ, VTP, VKQ, VNM, VTF, VMO, VPQ and VLT, four Class I Trustees are to be elected at the Meeting, to serve until the later of each such Fund's Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2008 or until a successor has been duly elected and qualified. Holders of Common Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to four Class I Trustees (David C. Arch, Jerry D. Choate, Howard J Kerr and Suzanne H. Woolsey) designated to be elected by such class of shares. An affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of each such Fund is required to elect the respective nominees. It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote the Shares represented by them for the election of the respective nominees listed unless the proxy is marked otherwise. (c) With respect to VKL, three Class II Trustees are to be elected at the Meeting, to serve until the later of such Fund's Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2008 or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. Holders of Common Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to two Class II Trustees (Linda Hutton Heagy and Wayne W. Whalen) designated to be elected by such class of shares. Holders of Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to one Class II Trustee, Rod Dammeyer, designated to be elected by such class of shares. An affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of the Fund and a plurality of the Preferred Shares of the Fund is required to elect the respective nominees. It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote the Shares represented by them for the election of the respective nominees listed unless the proxy is marked otherwise. (d) With respect to VIN, three Class II Trustees are to be elected at the Meeting to serve until the later of the Fund's Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2008 or until a successor has been duly elected and qualified. Holders of Common Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to three Class II Trustees (Rod Dammeyer, Linda Hutton Heagy and Wayne W. Whalen) designated to be elected by such class of shares. An affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of the Fund is required to elect the nominee. It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote the Shares represented by them for the election of the nominee listed unless the proxy is marked otherwise. As in the past, only one class of trustees is being submitted to shareholders of each Fund for election at the Meeting. The Declaration of Trust of each Fund provides that the Board of Trustees shall consist of 7 Trustees divided into three classes, the classes to be as nearly equal in number as possible. The Trustees of only one class are elected at each annual meeting so that the regular term of only one class of Trustees will expire annually and any particular Trustee stands for election only once in each three-year period. This type of classification may prevent replacement of a majority of Trustees of a Fund for up to a two-year period. The foregoing is subject to the provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), applicable state law based on the state of organization of each Fund, each Fund's Declaration of Trust and each Fund's Bylaws. 8 INFORMATION REGARDING TRUSTEES AND NOMINEES FOR ELECTION AS TRUSTEE The business and affairs of the Funds are managed under the direction of the Board of Trustees. The tables below list the incumbent Trustees and nominees for Trustee, their principal occupations during the last five years, other directorships held by them and their affiliations, if any, with the Adviser or its affiliates. The term "Fund Complex" includes each of the investment companies advised by the Adviser as of the Record Date. Trustees of the Funds generally serve three year terms or until their successors are duly elected and qualified. All nominees have consented to being named in this Joint Proxy Statement and have agreed to serve if elected. INDEPENDENT TRUSTEES

- --------------- (1) Designated as a Class I trustee. (2) Designated as a Class II trustee. (3) Designated as a Class III trustee. + Each Trustee generally serves a three-year term from the date of election. Each Trustee has served as a Trustee of each respective Fund since the year shown in Annex C. * Mr. Whalen is an interested person of funds in the Fund Complex by reason of he and his firm currently providing legal services as legal counsel to such funds in the Fund Complex. 16 REMUNERATION OF TRUSTEES The compensation of Trustees and executive officers that are affiliated persons (as defined in 1940 Act) of Asset Management or Van Kampen is paid by the respective entity. The funds in the Fund Complex, including the Funds, pay the non-affiliated Trustees an annual retainer and meeting fees. Each fund in the Fund Complex (except the Van Kampen Exchange Fund) provides a deferred compensation plan to its non-affiliated Trustees that allows such Trustees to defer receipt of compensation and earn a return on such deferred amounts based upon the return of the common shares of the funds in the Fund Complex as selected by the respective non-affiliated Trustees. Each fund in the Fund Complex (except the Van Kampen Exchange Fund) also provides a retirement plan to its non-affiliated Trustees that provides non-affiliated Trustees with compensation after retirement, provided that certain eligibility requirements are met as more fully described below. Each non-affiliated Trustee generally can elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the compensation earned by such non-affiliated Trustee until retirement. Amounts deferred are retained by the respective fund and earn a rate of return determined by reference to the return on the common shares of such fund or other funds in the Fund Complex as selected by the respective non-affiliated Trustee, with the same economic effect as if such non-affiliated Trustee had invested in one or more funds in the Fund Complex, including the Funds. To the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, each Fund may invest in securities of those funds selected by the non-affiliated Trustees in order to match the deferred compensation obligation. The deferred compensation plan is not funded and obligations thereunder represent general unsecured claims against the general assets of the respective Fund. Each Fund has adopted a retirement plan. Under the retirement plan, a non-affiliated Trustee who is receiving Trustee's compensation from a Fund prior to such non-affiliated Trustee's retirement, has at least 10 years of service (including years of service prior to adoption of the retirement plan) for such Fund and retires at or after attaining the age of 60, is eligible to receive a retirement benefit each year for ten years following such Trustee's retirement from such Fund. Non-affiliated Trustees retiring prior to the age of 60 or with fewer than 10 years but more than 5 years of service may receive reduced retirement benefits from a Fund. Each Trustee has served as a member of each Fund's Board of Trustees since the year of such Trustee's appointment or election as set forth on Annex C to this Proxy Statement. 17 Additional information regarding compensation and benefits for Trustees is set forth below. As indicated in the notes accompanying the table, the amounts relate to either the respective Fund's most recently completed fiscal year end in 2004 or the Fund Complex's most recently completed calendar year ended December 31, 2004.

- --------------- N/A: Not applicable. (1) Trustees not eligible for compensation and retirement benefits are not included in the Compensation Table. Theodore A. Myers retired from the Board of Trustees of the Funds and other funds in the Fund Complex as of December 31, 2003. J. Miles Branagan retired as a member of the Board of Trustees of the Funds and other funds in the Fund Complex on December 31, 2004. Richard F. Powers III and Mitchell M. Merin resigned as members of the Board of Trustees of the Funds and other funds in the Fund Complex on September 22, 2005. (2) The amount of aggregate compensation payable by each Fund for its most recently completed fiscal year ended in 2004 before deferral by the Trustees under the deferred compensation plan is shown in Annex D. Certain Trustees deferred all or a portion of the aggregate compensation payable by each Fund for its most recently completed fiscal year end in 2004 as shown in Annex E. The deferred compensation plan is described above the table. Amounts deferred are retained by the respective Fund and earn a rate of return determined by reference to either the return on the Common Shares of the Fund or the common shares of other funds in the Fund Complex as selected by the respective Trustee. To the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, the Fund may invest in securities of these funds selected by the Trustees in order to match the deferred compensation obligation. The cumulative deferred compensation (including earnings accrued thereon for each trustee) for each Fund as of the end of its most recently completed fiscal year end in 2004 is shown in Annex F. (3) The amounts shown in this column represent the sum of the estimated pension or retirement benefit accruals expected to be accrued by the operating funds in the Fund Complex for their respective fiscal years ended in 2004. The retirement plan is described above the compensation table. (4) For each Trustee, the amounts shown in this column represent the sum of the estimated annual benefits upon retirement payable per year by the operating funds in the Fund Complex as of the calendar year ended December 31, 2004 for each year of the 10-year 18 period commencing in the year of such Trustee's anticipated retirement. Each Fund is expected to pay benefits each year of the 10-year period commencing in the year of such Trustee's retirement to those Trustees who retire at or over the age of 60 and with at least ten years of service to each Fund. The retirement plan is described above the compensation table. Because the funds in the Fund Complex have different fiscal year ends, the amounts shown in the column are presented on a calendar year basis. (5) The amounts shown in this column are accumulated from the aggregate compensation of the operating investment companies in the Fund Complex as of the calendar year ended December 31, 2004 before deferral by the Trustees under the deferred compensation plan. Because the funds in the Fund Complex have different fiscal year ends, the amounts shown in this column are presented on a calendar year basis. BOARD COMMITTEES AND MEETINGS Each Fund's Board of Trustees has three standing committees (an audit committee, a brokerage and services committee and a governance committee). Each committee is comprised solely of "Independent Trustees", which is defined for purposes herein as trustees who: (1) are not "interested persons" of the Fund as defined by the 1940 Act and (2) are "independent" of the respective Fund as defined by the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange and Chicago Stock Exchange listing standards. Each Board's audit committee consists of Jerry D. Choate, Rod Dammeyer and R. Craig Kennedy. In addition to being Independent Trustees as defined above, each of these Trustees also meets the additional independence requirements for audit committee members as defined by the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange and Chicago Stock Exchange listing standards. The audit committee makes recommendations to the Board of Trustees concerning the selection of each Fund's independent registered public accounting firm, reviews with such independent registered public accounting firm the scope and results of each Fund's annual audit and considers any comments which the independent registered public accounting firm may have regarding each Fund's financial statements, books of account or internal controls. Each Board of Trustees has adopted a formal written charter for the audit committee which sets forth the audit committee's responsibilities. The audit committee has reviewed and discussed the financial statements of each Fund with management as well as with the independent registered public accounting firm of each Fund, and discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed under the Statement of Auditing Standards No. 61. The audit committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required under Independence Standard Board Standard No. 1 and has discussed with the independent auditors their independence. Based on this review, the audit committee recommended to the Board of Trustees of each Fund that each Fund's audited financial statements be included in each Fund's annual report to shareholders for the most recent fiscal year for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). 19 In accordance with proxy rules promulgated by the SEC, a fund's audit committee charter is required to be filed at least once every three years as an exhibit to a fund's proxy statement. The audit committee charter for each of the Funds was attached as Annex K to the Funds' 2004 Proxy Statement. Each Board's brokerage and services committee consists of Linda Hutton Heagy, Hugo F. Sonnenschein and Suzanne H. Woolsey. The brokerage and services committee reviews each Fund's allocation of brokerage transactions and soft-dollar practices and reviews the transfer agency and shareholder servicing arrangements. Each Board's governance committee consists of David C. Arch, Howard J Kerr and Jack E. Nelson. In addition to being Independent Trustees as defined above, each of these Trustees also meets the additional independence requirements for nominating committee members as defined by the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange and Chicago Stock Exchange listing standards. The governance committee identifies individuals qualified to serve as Independent Trustees on the Board and on committees of the Board, advises the Board with respect to Board composition, procedures and committees, develops and recommends to the Board a set of corporate governance principles applicable to the respective Fund, monitors corporate governance matters and makes recommendations to the Board, and acts as the administrative committee with respect to Board policies and procedures, committee policies and procedures and codes of ethics. The Independent Trustees of the respective Fund select and nominate any other nominee Independent Trustees for the respective Fund. While the Independent Trustees of the respective Fund expect to be able to continue to identify from their own resources an ample number of qualified candidates for the Board of Trustees as they deem appropriate, they will consider nominations from shareholders to the Board. Nominations from shareholders should be in writing and sent to the Independent Trustees as described below. In accordance with proxy rules promulgated by the SEC, a fund's nominating committee charter is required to be filed at least once every three years as an exhibit to a fund's proxy statement. The governance committee charter for each of the Funds, which includes each Fund's nominating policies, was attached as Annex L to the Funds' 2004 Proxy Statement. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004, the Board of Trustees of VKV, VCV, VMV, VNV, VPV, VOT, VKI, VGM, VIM, VTF, VTJ, VTN, VTP, VMO, VKA, VAP, VKL, VKQ, VFM, VOQ, VNM and VPQ each held 16 meetings. During each such Fund's last fiscal year, the audit committee of each such Board held 6 meetings, the brokerage and services committee of each Board held 4 meeting and the governance committee held 5 meeting during each such Fund's last fiscal year. During the last fiscal year, each of the Trustees of such Funds during the period such Trustee served as a Trustee attended at least 75% of the meetings of 20 the respective Board of Trustees and all committee meetings thereof of which such Trustee was a member. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, the Board of Trustees of VIN and VLT each held 16 meetings. During each such Fund's last fiscal year, the audit committee of each Board held 6 meetings, the brokerage and services committee of each Board of each such Fund held 4 meetings and the governance committee held 5 meetings during each such Fund's last fiscal year.

SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS Shareholders may send communications to each Funds' Board of Trustees. Shareholders should send communications intended for the Board by addressing the communication directly to the Board (or individual Board members) and/or otherwise clearly indicating in the salutation that the communication is for the Board (or individual Board members) and by sending the communication to either the applicable Fund's office or directly to such Board member(s) at the address specified for such Trustee above. Other shareholder communications received by any Fund not directly addressed and sent to the Board will be reviewed and generally responded to by management, and will be forwarded to the Board only at management's discretion based on the matters contained therein. SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL With respect to Proposal 1(a) through (d), the holders of Common Shares and Preferred Shares, where applicable, voting as a separate class, will vote on the respective nominees designated to be elected by such class of shares. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of each Fund present at the Meeting in person or by proxy is required to elect each nominee for Trustee designated to be elected by the Common Shares and, where applicable, the affirmative vote of a plurality of the Preferred Shares of each Fund present at the Meeting in person or by proxy is required to elect each nominee for Trustee designated to be elected by the Preferred Shares. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR ALL" OF THE NOMINEES. 21 OTHER INFORMATION EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE FUNDS The following information relates to the executive officers of the Funds who are not Trustee nominees.

23 SHAREHOLDER INFORMATION As of September 28, 2005, to the knowledge of the Funds, no shareholder owned beneficially more than 5% of a class of a Fund's outstanding Shares. As of August 31, 2005, certain Trustees and executive officers owned, directly or beneficially, the number of Common Shares of each Fund as set forth in Annex G. Except as indicated on Annex G, as of August 31, 2005, the Trustees and executive officers of the Funds individually and as a group owned less than 1% of the outstanding Shares of each Fund. Trustees and executive officers who do not own any Common Shares of the Funds or Funds which are not owned by any Trustee or executive officers have been omitted from the table in Annex G. As of August 31, 2005, no Trustees or executive officers owned any Preferred Shares of the Funds. Excluding deferred compensation balances as described in the Compensation Table, as of August 31, 2005, each Trustee beneficially owned equity securities of the Funds and other funds in the Fund Complex overseen by the Trustees in the dollar range amounts as specified in Annex H. Including deferred compensation balances as described in the Compensation Table, as of August 31, 2005, each Trustee owned the dollar ranges of amounts of the Funds and other funds in the Fund Complex as specified in Annex I. SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE Section 30(f) of the 1940 Act and Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, require each of the Funds' Trustees, officers, investment adviser, affiliated persons of the investment adviser and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Fund's equity securities to file forms with the SEC and the New York Stock Exchange or American Stock Exchange, as applicable, reporting their affiliation with the Fund and reports of ownership and changes in ownership of Fund Shares. These persons and entities are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Fund with copies of all such forms they file. Based on a review of these forms furnished to each Fund, each Fund believes that during its last fiscal year, its Trustees, officers, Adviser and affiliated persons of the Adviser complied with the applicable filing requirements except that except that Form 4 Filings relating to common shares of VMO, VKA, VGM, VIM and VKQ on behalf of Wayne W. Whalen, a trustee of the Funds, inadvertently were not filed in a timely manner. INDEPENDENT AUDITORS The Board of Trustees of each Fund, including a majority of the Trustees who are not "interested persons" of each Fund (as defined by the 1940 Act), has selected Deloitte & Touche LLP ("D&T") as the independent auditors to examine the financial statements for the current fiscal year of each Fund. The selection of D&T for the current fiscal year was recommended and approved by each Fund's audit 24 committee and approved by each Fund's Board. Each of the Funds knows of no direct or indirect financial interest of D&T in such Fund. AUDIT AND OTHER FEES Each Fund and certain "covered entities" were billed the amounts listed on Annex J by D&T during such Fund's most recent two fiscal years. The audit committee of each Board has considered whether the provision of non- audit services performed by D&T to the Funds and "covered entities" is compatible with maintaining D&T's independence in performing audit services. The audit committee also is required to pre-approve services to "covered entities" to the extent that the services are determined to have a direct impact on the operations or financial reporting of the Funds and 100% of such services were pre-approved by the audit committee pursuant to the audit committee's pre-approval policies and procedures. The Board's pre-approval policies and procedures are included as part of the Board's audit committee charter, which was attached as Annex K to the Funds' 2004 Proxy Statement. Representatives of D&T will attend the Meeting, will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will be available to answer appropriate questions. EXPENSES The expenses of preparing, printing and mailing the enclosed form of proxy, the accompanying Notice and this Proxy Statement and all other costs, in connection with the solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Funds. The total amount of these expenses will be allocated among each of the Funds based upon the total number of shareholders for each Fund in relation to the total number of shareholders for all of the Funds participating in the Meeting. The Funds will also reimburse banks, brokers and others for their reasonable expenses in forwarding proxy solicitation material to the beneficial owners of the shares of the Funds. In order to obtain the necessary quorum at the Meeting, additional solicitation may be made by mail, telephone, telegraph, facsimile or personal interview by representatives of the Funds, the Adviser or Van Kampen, by the transfer agents of the Funds, by dealers or their representatives or by Computershare Fund Services, a solicitation firm that has been engaged to assist in proxy solicitation at an estimated cost of approximately $1,500 per Fund. SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS To be considered for presentation at a shareholders' meeting, rules promulgated by the SEC generally require that, among other things, a shareholder's proposal must be received at the offices of the relevant Fund a reasonable time before a 25 solicitation is made. Generally the annual meeting of shareholders for the Funds has been held in June of each year. The 2005 annual meeting of shareholders was moved to October of this year in an effort to better accommodate and control costs related to the scheduling of special meetings of shareholders being held for certain funds in the Fund Complex during the year. Consistent with prior years, however, the 2006 annual meeting of shareholders for the Funds in anticipated to be held in June. Shareholder proposals intended to be presented at the year 2006 annual meeting of shareholders for a Fund pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), must be received by the Fund at the Fund's principal executive offices by March 2, 2006. In order for proposals made outside of Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act to be considered "timely" within the meaning of Rule 14a-4(c) under the Exchange Act, such proposals must be received by the Fund at the Fund's principal executive offices not later than April 17, 2006. Timely submission of a proposal does not necessarily mean that such proposal will be included. Any shareholder who wishes to submit a proposal for consideration at a meeting of such shareholder's Fund should send such proposal to the respective Fund at the principal executive offices of the Fund at 1221 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10020, Attn: Van Kampen Asset Management General Counsel's Office. GENERAL Management of each Fund does not intend to present and does not have reason to believe that others will present any other items of business at the Meeting. However, if other matters are properly presented to the Meeting for a vote, the proxies will be voted upon such matters in accordance with the judgment of the persons acting under the proxies. A list of shareholders of each Fund entitled to be present and vote at the Meeting will be available at the offices of the respective Fund, 1 Parkview Plaza, Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois 60181-5555, for inspection by any shareholder during regular business hours for ten days prior to the date of the Meeting. Failure of a quorum to be present at the Meeting for any Fund may necessitate adjournment and may subject such Fund to additional expense. IF YOU CANNOT BE PRESENT IN PERSON, YOU ARE REQUESTED TO FILL IN, SIGN AND RETURN THE ENCLOSED PROXY PROMPTLY. NO POSTAGE IS REQUIRED IF MAILED IN THE UNITED STATES. STEFANIE V. CHANG Vice President October 5, 2005 26 ANNEX A VAN KAMPEN CLOSED-END FUNDS The following list sets forth the Van Kampen closed-end investment companies (the "Funds") participating in the Joint Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held at the offices of Van Kampen Investments Inc., 1 Parkview Plaza, Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois 60181-5555 on Friday, October 28, 2005, at 10:00 a.m. The name in the first column below is the legal name for each Fund.
