Effective August 2, 2010, the section of each fund’s prospectus under the “Class S Shares” sub-section of the “CHOOSING A SHARE CLASS” section will be replaced in its entirety by the following:

Class S shares areprincipally available to new investors through fee-based programs of investment dealers that have special agreements with the fund’s distributor, through certain group retirement plans and through certain registered investment advisors. These dealers and advisors typically charge ongoing fees for services they provide.

Eligibility Requirements. Class S shares of a fund are offered at net asset value without a sales charge to certain eligible investors as described below. The following investors may purchase Class S shares of DWS funds either: (i) directly from DWS Investments Distributors, Inc. (“DIDI”), the fund’s principal underwriter; or (ii) through an intermediary relationship with a financial services firm established with respect to the DWS funds as of December 31, 2004.

■ Existing shareholders of Class S shares of any DWS fund and household members residing at the same address may purchase Class S shares of such fund and may open new individual accounts for Class S shares of any DWS fund. (This provision applies to persons who in the future become Class S shareholders under one of the eligibility provisions in this paragraph but is not applicable to investors or participants holding Class S shares through the fee based, retirement or other programs or plans referred to in the next paragraph unless otherwise provided below.)

■ A person who certifies that they are a participant in a “DWS retirement plan” may purchase Class S shares apart from the participant’s plan. For this purpose, a DWS retirement plan is defined as an employer sponsored employee benefit plan made available through ADP, Inc. and/or its affiliates, or ExpertPlan, Inc. under an alliance between one of these two firms and DWS Investments or its affiliates.

■ A person who certifies that they are a participant who owns Class S shares of any DWS fund through a retirement, employee stock, bonus, pension or profit sharing plan may purchase Class S shares apart from the participant’s plan.

■ Any participant in any employer sponsored retirement, employee stock, bonus, pension or profit sharing plan may purchase Class S shares in connection with a rollover of a distribution from a plan to a DWS Investments IRA made through a rollover facilitator having a relationship with DWS Investments.

■ Class S shares are available to accounts managed by the Advisor, any advisory products offered by the Advisor or DIDI and to DWS Allocation Series or other fund of funds managed by the Advisor or its affiliates.
