Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assertion about the Fund’s compliance based on our examination.

In our opinion, management’s assertion that the Fund complied with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of Rule 17f-2 of the Act as of May 30, 2014, with respect to securities reflected in the investment accounts of the Fund, is fairly stated, in all material respects.
