to this Agreement or "interested persons" (as defined in the 1940

purpose of voting on such approval; provided, however, that
approval by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting
securities of a Fund shall not be required with respect to any
amendment that reduces the investment advisory fees payable by a
Fund under the Agreement.
