The following information replaces similar disclosure under “Revenue Sharing” in the “Purchase and Redemption of Shares” section of each Fund’s/Portfolio’s Statements of Additional Information:
 
Revenue Sharing
 
In light of recent regulatory developments, the Advisor, the Distributor and their affiliates have undertaken to furnish certain additional information below regarding the level of payments made by them to selected affiliated and unaffiliated brokers, dealers, participating insurance companies or other financial intermediaries (“financial advisors”) in connection with the sale and/or distribution of Fund shares or the retention and/or servicing of investors and Fund shares (“revenue sharing”).
 
The Advisor, the Distributor and/or their affiliates may pay additional compensation, out of their own assets and not as an additional charge to each Fund, to financial advisors in connection with the sale and/or distribution of Fund shares or the retention and/or servicing of Fund investors and Fund shares. Such revenue sharing payments are in addition to any distribution or service fees payable under any Rule 12b-1 or service plan of any fund, any record keeping/sub-transfer agency/networking fees payable by each Fund (generally through the Distributor or an affiliate) and/or the Distributor to certain financial advisors for performing such services and any sales charges, commissions, non-cash compensation arrangements expressly permitted under applicable rules of FINRA or other concessions described in the fee table or elsewhere in the Prospectuses or the SAI as payable to all financial advisors. For example, the Advisor, the Distributor and/or their affiliates may compensate financial advisors for providing each Fund with “shelf space” or access to a third party platform or fund offering list, or other marketing programs including, without limitation, inclusion of each Fund on preferred or recommended sales lists, mutual fund “supermarket” platforms and other formal sales programs; granting the Distributor access to the financial advisor’s sales force; granting the Distributor access to the financial advisor’s conferences and meetings; assistance in training and educating the financial advisor’s personnel; and, obtaining other forms of marketing support. The level of revenue sharing payments made to financial advisors may be a fixed fee or based upon one or more of the following factors: gross sales, current assets and/or number of accounts of each Fund attributable to the financial advisor, t he particular fund or fund type or other measures as agreed to by the Advisor, the Distributor and/or their affiliates and the financial advisors or any combination thereof. The amount of these payments is determined at the discretion of the Advisor, the Distributor and/or their affiliates from time to time, may be substantial, and may be different for different financial advisors based on, for example, the nature of the services provided by the financial advisor.
 
The Advisor, the Distributor and/or their affiliates currently make revenue sharing payments from their own assets in connection with the sale and/or distribution of DWS fund shares, or the retention and/or servicing of investors, to financial advisors in amounts that generally range from 0.01% up to 0.26% of assets of the Fund serviced and maintained by the financial advisor, 0.05% to 0.25% of sales of the Fund attributable to the financial advisor, a flat fee of $4,000 up to $10,000, or any combination thereof. These amounts are annual figures typically paid on a quarterly basis and are subject to change at the discretion of the Advisor, the Distributor and/or their affiliates. Receipt of, or the prospect of receiving, this additional compensation, may influence your financial advisor’s recommendation of this Fund or of any par ticular share class of the Fund.  You should review your financial advisor’s compensation disclosure and/or talk to your financial advisor to obtain more information on how this compensation may have influenced your financial advisor’s recommendation of this Fund.
 
The Advisor, the Distributor and/or their affiliates may also make such revenue sharing payments to financial advisors under the terms discussed above in connection with the distribution of both DWS funds and non-DWS funds by financial advisors to retirement plans that obtain record keeping services from ADP, Inc. or ExpertPlan Inc. on the DWS Investments branded retirement plan platform (the
 
 
 
 
 “Platform") with the level of revenue sharing payments being based upon sales of both the DWS funds and the non-DWS funds by the financial advisor on the Platform or current assets of both the DWS funds and the non-DWS funds serviced and maintained by the financial advisor on the Platform.
 
As of the date hereof, each Fund has been advised that the Advisor, the Distributor and their affiliates expect that the following firms will receive revenue sharing payments at different points during the coming year as described above:

Any additions, modifications or deletions to the financial advisors identified above that have occurred since the date hereof are not reflected.
 
 
 
 
The Advisor, the Distributor or their affiliates may enter into additional revenue sharing arrangements or change or discontinue existing arrangements with financial advisors at any time without notice.
 
The prospect of receiving, or the receipt of additional compensation or promotional incentives described above by financial advisors may provide such financial advisors and/or their salespersons with an incentive to favor sales of shares of the DWS funds or a particular DWS fund over sales of shares of mutual funds (or non-mutual fund investments) with respect to which the financial advisor does not receive additional compensation or promotional incentives, or receives lower levels of additional compensation or promotional incentives. Similarly, financial advisors may receive different compensation or incentives that may influence their recommendation of any particular share class of the Fund or of other funds. These payment arrangements, however, will not change the price that an investor pays for Fund shares or the amount that the Fu nd receives to invest on behalf of an investor and will not increase Fund expenses. You may wish to take such payment arrangements into account when considering and evaluating any recommendations relating to Fund shares and you should discuss this matter with your financial advisor and review your financial advisor’s disclosures.
 
It is likely that broker-dealers that execute portfolio transactions for the Fund will include firms that also sell shares of the DWS funds to their customers. However, the Advisor will not consider sales of DWS fund shares as a factor in the selection of broker-dealers to execute portfolio transactions for the DWS funds. Accordingly, the Advisor has implemented policies and procedures reasonably designed to prevent its traders from considering sales of DWS fund shares as a factor in the selection of broker-dealers to execute portfolio transactions for the Fund. In addition, the Advisor, the Distributor and/or their affiliates will not use fund brokerage to pay for their obligation to provide additional compensation to financial advisors as described above.
 
 
Effective January 1, 2010, the following information replaces similar disclosure in the “Purchase and Redemption of Shares” section of each Fund’s/Portfolio’s Statements of Additional Information:
 

DIDI has adopted an Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) covering wholesalers that are regional vice presidents (“DWS Investments Wholesalers”). Generally, DWS Investments Wholesalers market shares of the DWS funds to financial advisors, who in turn may recommend that investors purchase shares of a DWS fund. The Plan is an incentive program that combines a monthly incentive component with an annual out-performance award potential, based on achieving certain sales and other performance metrics. Under the Plan, DWS Investments Wholesalers will receive a monetary monthly incentive based on the amount of sales generated from their marketing of the funds, and that incentive will differ depending on the product tier of the fund.  Each fund is assigned to one of four product tiers — Tier I:  cornerston e or capital market compass funds; Tier II:  core or baseline funds; Tier III:  non-core funds; Tier IV:  index or passive funds—taking into consideration, among other things, the following criteria, where applicable:

• The Fund’s consistency with DWS Investments’ branding and long-term strategy;
• The Fund’s competitive performance;
• The Fund’s Morningstar rating;
• The length of time the Fund’s Portfolio Managers have managed the Fund/Strategy;
• Market size for the fund tier;
• The Fund’s size, including sales and redemptions of the Fund’s shares

This information and other factors are presented to a senior management committee comprised of representatives from various groups within DWS Investments, who review on a regular basis the funds assigned to each product tier described above, and may make changes to those assignments periodically.  No one factor, whether positive or negative, determines a fund’s placement in a given product tier; all these factors together are considered, and the designation of funds in a particular tier represents management’s judgment based on the above criteria. In addition, management may consider a fund’s profile over the course of several review periods before making a change to its tier assignment. These tier assignments will be posted quarterly to the DWS funds’ Web site at www.dws-investments.com/EN/wholesaler- compensation.jsp, approximately one month after the end of each quarter. DWS Investments Wholesalers receive the highest compensation for Tier I funds, successively less for Tier II (within which there are two payout sub-tiers) and Tier III funds, and the lowest for Tier IV funds. The level of compensation among these product tiers may differ significantly.

In the normal course of business, DWS Investments will from time to time introduce new funds into the DWS family of funds. As a general rule, new funds will be assigned to the product tier that is most appropriate to the type of fund at the time of its launch based on the criteria described above.  As described above, the fund tier assignments are reviewed periodically and are subject to change.
 

 
 
 
 
The prospect of receiving, or the receipt of, additional compensation by a DWS Investments Wholesaler under the Plan may provide an incentive to favor marketing funds in higher payout tiers over funds in lower payout tiers. The Plan, however, will not change the price that investors pay for shares of a fund. The DWS Investments Compliance Department monitors DWS Investments Wholesaler sales and other activity in an effort to detect unusual activity in the context of the compensation structure under the Plan. However, investors may wish to take the Plan and the product tier of the fund into account when considering purchasing a fund or evaluating any recommendations relating to fund shares.
