Financial Intermediary ("indirect intermediary") and (ii) upon further request
of the Fund or its designee, either (A) to provide (or arrange to have provided)
the information set forth in Section 1 for those Shareholders who hold an
account with an indirect intermediary or (B) to restrict or prohibit the

information provided to the Fund or its designee should be consistent with the

Intermediary's account) that violate policies established by the Fund for the
purpose of eliminating or reducing any dilution of the value of the outstanding
Shares issued by the Fund.
(b) FORM OF INSTRUCTION. Instructions to restrict or prohibit trading
must include the TIN, ITIN or GII, if known, and the specific restrictions(s) to
be executed. If the TIN, ITIN or GI1 is not known, the instructions must include
an equivalent identifying number of the Shareholder(s) or account(s) or other
agreed upon information to which the instruction relates.
