adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified

principles. For the fiscal periods ended May 31, 2014 and May
31, 2013 for the Fund and for the period June 1, 2014 through
August 11, 2014, there were no disagreements with Ernst &
Young on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures,
which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst &
