Effective after market close on December 19, 2022, the
funds listed above will effect a reverse stock split at the above
ratios. The reverse stock split will increase the price per share
of the Fund with a proportionate decrease in the number of shares
outstanding. For example, every three pre-split shares will result
in receipt of one post-split share, which will be priced three
times higher than the net asset value (NAV) of a pre-split
share.

Fractional Shares
As a result of the reverse stock split, a shareholder of the
Fund's shares could potentially hold fractional shares. In this
case, the Fund will redeem the cash value (at NAV) of any
fractional shares resulting from the reverse split. Receipt of cash
in lieu of fractional shares may result in a taxable event to
shareholders, and each shareholder should consult with the
shareholder's own tax advisers with respect to the appropriate
treatment of the receipt of such cash payment.
