The purpose of the Endorsements is to amend the Fund’s Fidelity Bond period from February 28, 2017 through June 9, 2018.

The Certificate of the Assistant Secretary of the Funds, which contains the resolutions adopted by written consent on February 24, 2017 by a majority of the Funds’ Board of Directors not considered “interested persons” within the meaning of the 1940 Act, approving the amount, allocation, type, form and coverage of the Fidelity Bond and the amended and restated joint insured bond agreement were filed with the SEC when the Fidelity Bond was filed.

The premium associated with the Endorsements has been paid.

 

		Very truly yours,
