TRANSFER AGENCY FEE SCHEDULE SUPPLEMENT
For purposes of the following limitation, "Class Expenses" are
expenses identified as attributable to a particular class of the
Fund and charged directly to the class. Class Expenses are
limited to the following: registration fees, directors' or
trustees' fees, expenses of periodic meetings of directors,
trustees or shareholders, transfer agency fees, legal and
accounting fees (other than fees for income tax return
preparation or income tax advice), and costs of shareholder
communications required by law (e.g., the preparation and mailing
of prospectuses and proxy statements). Class Expenses
specifically do not include Rule 12b-1 fees and administrative
service fees. Transfer agency fees and expenses will be limited
for any class of the Fund to the extent necessary to ensure that
the Class Expenses allocated to each share of a class of the Fund
for a fiscal year will differ from the Class Expenses allocated
to each share of any other class of the Fund by less than 50
basis points (.50%) of the average daily net asset value per
share of the class of shares with the smallest average net asset
value (adjusted as necessary for classes in effect for a partial
year). For a Fund with multiple series, the foregoing shall be
applied to each series separately.
In addition, transfer agency fees and expenses (as a percentage
of average daily net assets) for any fiscal year will be limited
as follows:
