A LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND CEO

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present this semiannual report for Dreyfus Stock Index Fund, Inc., covering the six-month period from January 1, 2010, through June 30, 2010.

After posting solid gains over the first quarter of 2010, stocks encountered renewed volatility in the second quarter, which caused most equity indices to erase their previous gains and end the reporting period lower than where they began. The second-quarter correction occurred despite positive GDP reports, as manufacturing activity improved and unemployment began to moderate in a recovery that has so far proved sustainable but milder than historical averages. Indeed, many of the headlines that have affected investors emanated from overseas markets, including the sovereign debt crisis in Europe and inflation fears in China.

Despite recent headlines about the current state of the U.S. economy, we still believe that it is unlikely that we’ll encounter a “double-dip” recession. Instead, we expect current financial strains to ease and the domestic economy to expand at a moderate pace over the second half of the year. However, we currently see a number of downside risks across the global markets that could result in volatility over the short term, which is why we still believe that a long-term investment focus with an emphasis on high-quality stocks may be suitable for many investors. As always, your financial advisor can help you assess both the risks and opportunities provided by the global financial markets in this investment climate.

For information about how the fund performed during the reporting period, as well as general market perspectives, we provide a Discussion of Fund Performance on the pages that follow.

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

For the period of January 1, 2010, through June 30, 2010, as provided by Thomas Durante, CFA, Portfolio Manager

Fund and Market Performance Overview

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, Dreyfus Stock Index Fund’s Initial shares produced a total return of –6.74%, and its Service shares produced a total return of –6.86%.1 In comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index (“S&P 500 Index”), produced a total return of –6.64% for the same period.2,3

A market rally sputtered in May and June when investors grew concerned about a number of threats to global economic growth, and U.S. stocks generally lost value over the first six months of 2010.The difference in returns between the fund and the S&P 500 Index was primarily the result of transaction costs and operating expenses that are not reflected in the S&P 500 Index’s results.

As a side note, Karen Q.Wong and Richard A. Brown were added as co-portfolio managers of the fund as of June 2010.

The Fund’s Investment Approach

The fund seeks to match the total return of the S&P 500 Index by generally investing in all 500 stocks in the S&P 500 Index in proportion to their respective weighting. Often considered a proxy for the stock market in general, the S&P 500 Index is made up of 500 common stocks chosen to reflect the industries of the U.S. economy. Each stock is weighted by its market capitalization; that is, larger companies have greater representation in the S&P 500 Index than smaller ones. The fund also may use stock index futures as a substitute for the sale or purchase of securities.

Equity Markets Slumped Amid Global Economic Uncertainty

The year 2010 began in the midst of an economic recovery as improved manufacturing activity and rising corporate earnings helped boost

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

confidence among businesses, consumers and investors. The stock market continued to rally under these improving economic conditions, and investors at the time persisted in favoring lower-quality companies that had been punished in the previous downturn over their higher-quality counterparts.

As the reporting period progressed, however, several developments threatened the economic rebound, and investor sentiment deteriorated. Europe was roiled by a sovereign debt crisis when Greece found itself unable to finance a heavy debt burden, requiring intervention by the International Monetary Fund and other members of the European Union. Robust economic growth in China, one of the primary engines of the global economic recovery, seemed to spark inflationary pressures in local real estate markets, and investors grew worried that higher short-term interest rates and tighter lending standards might dampen growth in Asia. In the United States, mixed data related to retail sales, employment and the housing market suggested that economic headwinds might constrain already mild growth.As a result of these factors, large-cap stocks in May and June gave back their earlier gains, and all 10 sectors of the S&P 500 Index ended the reporting period with negative absolute returns.

Technology and Energy Stocks Declined Sharply

Information technology stocks, which represented one of the better performing market segments in the 2009 rally, led the downdraft over the first half of 2010. A broad array of technology-related industry groups posted declines, including computer hardware, software, Internet, technology services and communications equipment compa-nies.The energy sector also fell more than broader market averages in the wake of the catastrophic oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, hurting the stock prices of integrated oil-and-gas companies, independent deepwater drillers and companies that service and repair oil rigs and platforms. In the health care sector, pharmaceutical companies encountered difficulties due to patent expirations, safety recalls and litigation concerns. In addition, a number of health care equipment-and-supply companies were hurt by product recalls and reduced reimbursement rates after passage of regulatory reform legislation.

4



On a more positive note, consumer staples stocks held up relatively well, on average, as investors showed renewed interest in the stocks of traditionally defensive companies with steady cash flows and dividends. Consumer discretionary stocks also declined less than market averages, with restaurants, specialty retailers, automotive retailers and department stores rebounding from previously beaten-down levels. Finally, industrials and machinery stocks posted relatively strong returns, especially those tied to energy conservation and productivity enhancing technologies.

Index Funds Offer Diversification Benefits

As an index fund, we attempt to replicate the returns of the S&P 500 Index by closely approximating the composition of the S&P 500 Index. In our view,one of the benefits of an index fund is that it offers a broadly diversified investment vehicle that can help investors manage risks by limiting the impact on the overall portfolio of unexpected losses in any single industry group or holding. In addition, the fund’s investments are not affected by any individual’s preference for one market or security over another. Instead, the fund employs a passive management approach in which all investment decisions are based on the composition of the S&P 500 Index.

  Equity funds are subject generally to market, market sector, market liquidity, issuer and investment 
  style risks, among other factors, to varying degrees, all of which are more fully described in the 
  fund’s prospectus. 
  The fund is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable 
  annuity contracts issued by insurance companies. Individuals may not purchase shares of the fund 
  directly. A variable annuity is an insurance contract issued by an insurance company that enables 
  investors to accumulate assets on a tax-deferred basis for retirement or other long-term goals. 
1  Total return includes reinvestment of dividends and any capital gains paid. Past performance is no 
  guarantee of future results. Share price and investment return fluctuate such that upon redemption, 
  fund shares may be worth more or less than their original cost.The fund’s performance does not 
  reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in 
  variable insurance contracts, which will reduce returns. 
2  SOURCE: LIPPER INC. — Reflects reinvestment of dividends daily and, where applicable, 
  capital gain distributions.The Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index is a widely 
  accepted, unmanaged index of U.S. stock market performance. Investors cannot invest directly in

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES (Unaudited)

As a mutual fund investor, you pay ongoing expenses, such as management fees and other expenses. Using the information below, you can estimate how these expenses affect your investment and compare them with the expenses of other funds.You also may pay one-time transaction expenses, including sales charges (loads), redemption fees and expenses associated with variable annuity or insurance contracts, which are not shown in this section and would have resulted in higher total expenses. For more information, see your fund’s prospectus or talk to your financial adviser.

Review your fund’s expenses

The table below shows the expenses you would have paid on a $1,000 investment in Dreyfus Stock Index Fund, Inc. from January 1, 2010 to June 30, 2010. It also shows how much a $1,000 investment would be worth at the close of the period, assuming actual returns and expenses.

Expenses and Value of a $1,000 Investment   
assuming actual returns for the six months ended June 30, 2010   
  Initial Shares  Service Shares 
Expenses paid per $1,000  $ 1.29  $ 2.49 
Ending value (after expenses)  $932.60  $931.40 

 

COMPARING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES 
WITH THOSE OF OTHER FUNDS (Unaudited) 

 

Using the SEC’s method to compare expenses

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has established guidelines to help investors assess fund expenses. Per these guidelines, the table below shows your fund’s expenses based on a $1,000 investment, assuming a hypothetical 5% annualized return. You can use this information to compare the ongoing expenses (but not transaction expenses or total cost) of investing in the fund with those of other funds.All mutual fund shareholder reports will provide this information to help you make this comparison. Please note that you cannot use this information to estimate your actual ending account balance and expenses paid during the period.

Expenses and Value of a $1,000 Investment   
assuming a hypothetical 5% annualized return for the six months ended June 30, 2010 
  Initial Shares  Service Shares 
Expenses paid per $1,000  $ 1.35  $ 2.61 
Ending value (after expenses)  $1,023.46  $1,022.22 

 

Expenses are equal to the fund’s annualized expense ratio of .27% for Initial Shares and .52% for Service Shares, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:

Dreyfus Stock Index Fund, Inc. (the “fund”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as a non-diversified open-end management investment company, that is intended to be a funding vehicle for variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies to be offered by the separate accounts of life insurance companies.The fund’s investment objective is to match the total return of the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index. The Dreyfus Corporation (the “Manager” or “Dreyfus”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (“BNY Mellon”), serves as the fund’s investment adviser. Mellon Capital Management Corporation (“Mellon Capital”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of BNY Mellon, serves as the fund’s index manager.

MBSC Securities Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dreyfus, is the distributor of the fund’s shares, which are sold without a sales charge.The fund is authorized to issue 400 million shares of $.001 par value Common Stock in each of the following classes of shares: Initial shares (250 million shares authorized) and Service shares (150 million shares authorized). Initial shares are subject to a shareholder services fee and Service shares are subject to a distribution fee. Each class of shares has identical rights and privileges, except with respect to the distribution plan, shareholder services plan, the expenses borne by each class, the allocation of certain transfer agency costs and certain voting rights. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class), and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) is the exclusive reference of authoritative U.S.generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal laws are also sources of authori-

30



tative GAAP for SEC registrants. The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown.The fund does not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.

(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sales price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value.When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Directors. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant American Depository Receipts and futures contracts. For

The Fund 31



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

other securities that are fair valued by the Board of Directors, certain factors may be considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers. Financial futures are valued at the last sales price.

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e. the exit price). GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs of valuation techniques used to measure fair value.This hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

Additionally, GAAP provides guidance on determining whether the volume and activity in a market has decreased significantly and whether such a decrease in activity results in transactions that are not orderly. GAAP requires enhanced disclosures around valuation inputs and techniques used during annual and interim periods.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund’s investments relating to fair value measurements.These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.

Level 2—other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2010 in valuing the fund’s investments:

In January 2010, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06 “Improving Disclosures about FairValue Measurements”. The portions of ASU No. 2010-06 which require reporting entities to prepare new disclosures surrounding amounts and reasons for significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements as well as inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3 have been adopted by the fund.The remaining portion of ASU No. 2010-06 requires reporting entities to make new disclosures about information on purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements.These new and revised disclosures are required to be implemented for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. Management is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this remaining portion of ASU No. 2010-06 may have on the fund’s financial statement disclosures.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

(b) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income, including, where applicable, accretion of discount and amortization of premium on investments, is recognized on the accrual basis.

The fund has arrangements with the custodian and cash management bank whereby the fund may receive earnings credits when positive cash balances are maintained, which are used to offset custody and cash management fees. For financial reporting purposes, the fund includes net earnings credits as an expense offset in the Statement of Operations.

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund’s policy that, at origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by Dreyfus, U.S. Government and Agency securities or letters of credit.The fund is entitled to receive all income on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the lending transaction. Although each security loaned is fully collateralized, the fund bears the risk of delay in recovery of, or loss of rights in, the securities loaned should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner. During the period ended June 30, 2010, The Bank of New York Mellon earned $24,876 from lending portfolio securities, pursuant to the securities lending agreement.

(c) Affiliated issuers: Investments in other investment companies advised by Dreyfus are defined as “affiliated” in the Act.

(d) Dividends to shareholders: Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from investment income-net are declared and paid on a quarterly basis. Dividends from net realized capital gains, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but the fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).To the extent that net realized capital gains can be offset by capital loss carryovers, it is the policy of the fund not to distribute such gains. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.

(e) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, if such qualification is in the best interests of its shareholders, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.

Interest is charged to the fund based on rates determined pursuant to the terms of the respective Facility at the time of borrowing. During the period ending June 30, 2010, the fund did not borrow under the Facilities.

(b) Under the Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act, Service shares pay the Distributor for distributing its shares, for servicing and/or maintaining Service shares’ shareholder accounts and for advertising and marketing for Service shares.The Plan provides for payments to be made at an annual rate of .25% of the value of the Service shares’ average daily net assets.The Distributor may make payments to Participating Insurance Companies and brokers and dealers acting as principal underwriter for their variable insurance products. The fees payable under the Plan are payable without regard to actual expenses incurred. During the period ended June 30, 2010, Service shares were charged $185,900 pursuant to the Plan.

(c) Under the Shareholder Services Plan, Initial shares reimburse the Distributor an amount not to exceed an annual rate of .25% of the value of the Initial shares’ average daily net assets for certain allocated expenses with respect to servicing and/or maintaining Initial shares’ shareholder accounts.

NOTE 4—Securities Transactions:

The aggregate amount of purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term securities and financial futures, during the period ended June 30, 2010, amounted to $38,551,963 and $140,550,503, respectively.

The provisions of ASC Topic 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” require qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. The disclosure requirements distinguish between derivatives, which are accounted for as “hedges” and those that do not qualify for hedge accounting. Because investment companies value their derivatives at fair value and recognize changes in fair value through the Statement of Operations, they do not qualify for such accounting. Accordingly, even though a fund’s investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for purposes of this disclosure.

38



Futures Contracts: In the normal course of pursuing its investment objective, the fund is exposed to market risk, including equity price risk as a result of changes in value of underlying financial instruments. The fund invests in financial futures contracts in order to manage its exposure to or protect against changes in the market. A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or a sale of an asset at a specified date. Upon entering into such contracts, these investments require initial margin deposits with a broker, which consist of cash or cash equivalents.The amount of these deposits is determined by the exchange or Board of Trade on which the contract is traded and is subject to change. Accordingly, variation margin payments are received or made to reflect daily unrealized gains or losses which are recorded in the Statement of Operations. Futures contracts are valued daily at the last sales price established by the Board of Trade or exchange upon which they are traded. When the contracts are closed, the fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. There is minimal counterparty credit risk to the fund with futures since futures are exchange traded, and the exchange’s clearinghouse guarantees the futures against default. Contracts open at June 30, 2010 are set forth in the Statement of Financial Futures.

At June 30, 2010, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments was $202,887,880, consisting of $468,958,790 gross unrealized appreciation and $266,070,910 gross unrealized depreciation.

At June 30, 2010, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see the Statement of Investments).

INFORMATION ABOUT THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL 
OF THE FUND’S MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited) 

 

At a meeting of the fund’s Board of Directors held on March 2, 2010, the Board unanimously approved the continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement with Dreyfus for a one-year term ending March 30, 2011. The Board members, none of whom are “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the fund were assisted in their review by independent legal counsel and met with counsel in executive session separate from representatives of Dreyfus. In approving the continuance of the Management Agreement, the Board considered all factors that they believed to be relevant, including, among other things, the factors discussed below.

Analysis of Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided to the Fund. The Board members received a presentation from representatives of Dreyfus regarding services provided to the fund and other funds in the Dreyfus fund complex, and discussed the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the fund pursuant to its Management Agreement. Dreyfus’ representatives reviewed the fund’s distribution of accounts and the relationships Dreyfus has with various intermediaries and the different needs of each. Dreyfus’ representatives noted the various distribution channels for the fund as well as the diverse methods of distribution among other funds in the Dreyfus fund complex, and Dreyfus’ corresponding need for broad, deep, and diverse resources to be able to provide ongoing shareholder services to each distribution channel, including those of the fund. Dreyfus also provided the number of accounts investing in the fund, as well as the fund’s asset size.

The Board members also considered Dreyfus’ research and portfolio management capabilities and Dreyfus’ oversight of day-to-day fund operations, including fund accounting and administration and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements. The Board members also considered Dreyfus’ extensive administrative, accounting and compliance infrastructure.The Board also considered Dreyfus’ brokerage policies and practices, the standards applied in seeking best execution and Dreyfus’ policies and practices regarding soft dollars.

40



Comparative Analysis of the Fund’s Performance and Management Fee and Expense Ratio. The Board members reviewed the fund’s performance and comparisons to a group of S&P 500 Index Funds underlying variable annuity products (the “Performance Group”) and to a larger universe of funds consisting of all S&P 500 Index Funds underlying variable annuity products (the “Performance Universe”) selected and provided by Lipper, Inc., an independent provider of investment data.The Board was provided with a description of the methodology Lipper used to select the Performance Group and Performance Universe (discussed below).The Board members discussed the results of the comparisons and noted the fund’s average annual total return ranked in the first quartile of the Performance Group for the one-year period and in the second quartile of the Performance Group for the two-, three-, four-, five- and ten-year periods ended December 31, 2009.The fund’s average total return ranked in the first quartile of the Performance Universe for the one-, two-, three-, four- and five-year periods and in the second quartile of the Performance Universe for the ten-year period ended December 31, 2009. Dreyfus also provided a comparison of the fund’s calendar year total returns to the returns of the fund’s benchmark index.

The Board members also discussed the fund’s contractual and actual management fees and expense ratio and reviewed the range of management fees and expense ratios as compared to a comparable group of funds (the “Expense Group”) and a broader group of funds (the “Expense Universe”), each selected and provided by Lipper. The fund’s contractual management fee was lower than the Expense Group median and the fund’s actual management fee was slightly lower than the Expense Group and Expense Universe medians. The fund’s total expense ratio was slightly higher than the Expense Group median, but lower than the Expense Universe median.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF THE 
FUND’S MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (continued) 

 

Representatives of Dreyfus reviewed with the Board members the fees paid to Dreyfus or its affiliates by mutual funds and/or separate accounts managed by Dreyfus with similar investment objectives, policies and strategies as the fund (the “Similar Accounts”), and explained the nature of the Similar Accounts and the differences, from Dreyfus’ perspective, as applicable, in providing services to the Similar Accounts as compared to the fund. Dreyfus’ representatives also reviewed the costs associated with distribution through intermediaries. The Board analyzed differences in fees paid to Dreyfus and discussed the relationship of the advisory fees paid in light of the services provided.The Board members considered the relevance of the fee information provided for the Similar Accounts to evaluate the appropriateness and reasonableness of the fund’s management fees.The Board acknowledged that differences in fees paid by the Similar Accounts seemed to be consistent with the services provided.

Analysis of Profitability and Economies of Scale. Dreyfus’ representatives reviewed the dollar amount of expenses allocated and profit received by Dreyfus and the method used to determine such expenses and profit. The Board previously had been provided with information prepared by an independent consulting firm regarding Dreyfus’ approach to allocating costs to, and determining the profitability of, individual funds and the entire Dreyfus mutual fund complex.The Board also was informed that the methodology had also been reviewed by an independent registered public accounting firm which, like the consultant, found the methodology to be reasonable. The consulting firm also analyzed where any economies of scale might emerge in connection with the management of the fund. The Board members evaluated the profitability analysis in light of the relevant circumstances for the fund and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized if the fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of fund investors.The Board members also considered potential benefits to Dreyfus from acting as investment adviser and noted the soft dollar arrangements with respect to trading the fund’s investments.

It was noted that the Board members should consider Dreyfus’ profitability with respect to the fund as part of their evaluation of whether

42



the fees under the Management Agreement bear a reasonable relationship to the mix of services provided by Dreyfus, including the nature, extent and quality of such services, and that a discussion of economies of scale is predicated on a fund having achieved a substantial size with increasing assets and that, if a fund’s assets had been static or decreasing, the possibility that Dreyfus may have realized any economies of scale would be less. It also was noted that the profitability percentage for managing the fund was within the range determined by appropriate court cases to be reasonable given the services rendered and generally superior service levels provided.

At the conclusion of these discussions, the Board agreed that it had been furnished with sufficient information to make an informed business decision with respect to continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement. Based on the discussions and considerations as described above, the Board made the following conclusions and determinations.

  • The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by Dreyfus are adequate and appropriate.

  • The Board was satisfied with the fund’s relative performance.

  • The Board concluded that the fee paid by the fund to Dreyfus was reasonable in light of the considerations described above.

  • The Board determined that the economies of scale which may accrue to Dreyfus and its affiliates in connection with the management of the fund had been adequately considered by Dreyfus in connection with the management fee rate charged to the fund and that, to the extent in the future it were determined that material economies of scale had not been shared with the fund, the Board would seek to have those economies of scale shared with the fund.

The Board members considered these conclusions and determinations, along with information received on a routine and regular basis throughout the year, and, without any one factor being dispositive, the Board determined that continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.
