Depository Trust Company (DTC), the holder of record, determines
how a partial series redemption will be allocated among each
participant broker-dealer account. Each participant broker-dealer,
as nominee for underlying beneficial owners (street name
shareholders), in turn determines how redeemed shares are allocated
among its underlying beneficial owners. The procedures used by
different broker-dealers to allocate redeemed shares among
beneficial owners may differ from each other as well as from the
procedures used by DTC.
