2) The last five paragraphs in the section entitled
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE are hereby deleted
and replaced with the following:
The Adviser
and/or the
Distributor may pay compensation, out of their own funds and not
as an expense of the Fund, to Morgan Stanley & Co.
Incorporated (Morgan Stanley & Co.) and
certain unaffiliated brokers, dealers or other financial
intermediaries, including recordkeepers and administrators of
various deferred compensation plans (Intermediaries)
in connection with the sale, distribution, marketing
and/or
retention of Fund shares
and/or
shareholder servicing. For example, the Adviser or the
Distributor may pay additional compensation to Morgan
Stanley & Co. and to other Intermediaries for, among
others things, promoting the sale and distribution of Fund
shares, providing access to various programs, mutual fund
platforms or preferred or recommended mutual fund lists offered
by the Intermediary, granting the Distributor access to the
Intermediarys financial advisors and consultants,
providing assistance in the ongoing training and education of
the Intermediarys financial personnel, furnishing
marketing support, maintaining share balances
and/or for
sub-accounting,
recordkeeping, administrative, shareholder or transaction
processing services. Such payments are in addition to any
distribution fees, service fees
and/or
transfer agency fees that may be payable by the Fund. The
additional payments may be based on various factors, including
level of sales (based on gross or net sales or some specified
minimum sales or some other similar criteria related to sales of
the Fund
and/or some
or all other Van Kampen funds), amount of assets invested
by the Intermediarys customers (which could include
current or aged assets of the Fund
and/or some
or all other Van Kampen funds), the Funds advisory
fees, some other agreed upon amount, or other measures as
determined from time to time by the Adviser
and/or
Distributor. The amount of these payments may be different for
different Intermediaries.
With respect to Morgan Stanley & Co., these payments
currently include the following amounts, which are paid in
accordance with the applicable compensation structure:
|
|
|
|
1)
|
On Class A Shares, Class B Shares and Class C
Shares held directly in Morgan Stanley & Co.s
traditional brokerage accounts or held in non-Morgan
Stanley & Co. accounts where Morgan
Stanley & Co. is designated by purchasers as
broker-dealer of record (and Class R Shares, as applicable,
for which the Adviser
and/or the
Distributor are not engaged in revenue sharing with a 401(k)
platform provider):
|
|
|
|
|
|
an amount up to 0.11% of the value (at the time of sale) of
gross sales of such shares; and
|
|
|
|
an ongoing annual fee in an amount up to 0.03% of the total
average monthly net asset value of such shares, which is paid
only to the extent assets held in certain Van Kampen Funds
exceed $600 million.
|
|
|
|
|
2)
|
On Class I Shares held directly in Morgan
Stanley & Co.s traditional brokerage accounts or
held in non-Morgan Stanley & Co. accounts where Morgan
Stanley & Co. is designated by purchasers as
broker-dealer of record, an ongoing annual fee in an amount up
to 0.05% of the total average monthly net asset value of such
shares.
|
|
|
3)
|
On Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares
and Class I Shares held in taxable accounts through any
fee-based advisory program offered by Morgan Stanley &
Co., an ongoing annual fee in an amount up to 0.03% of the total
average monthly net asset value of such shares.
|
|
|
4)
|
On shares held in an account through certain 401(k) platforms in
Morgan Stanley Corporate Retirement Solutions, an ongoing annual
fee in an amount up to 0.20% of the total average monthly net
asset value of such shares.
|
With respect to other Intermediaries, these payments currently
include the following amounts, which are paid in accordance with
the applicable compensation structure:
|
|
|
|
1)
|
On shares held in Intermediary accounts, other than those held
through Intermediary 401(k) platforms:
|
|
|
|
|
|
an amount up to 0.25% of the value (at the time of sale) of
gross sales of such shares;
and/or
|
|
|
|
an ongoing annual fee in an amount up to 0.15% of the total
average monthly net asset value of such shares.
|
|
|
|
|
2)
|
On shares held in accounts through certain Intermediary 401(k)
platforms, an ongoing annual fee in an amount up to 0.20% of the
total average monthly net asset value of such shares.
|
The prospect of receiving, or the receipt of, such compensation,
as described above, by Morgan Stanley & Co. or other
Intermediaries may provide Morgan Stanley & Co. or
other Intermediaries,
and/or their
financial advisors or other salespersons, with an incentive to
favor sales of shares of the Fund over other investment options
with respect to which Morgan Stanley & Co. or an
Intermediary does not receive additional compensation (or
receives lower levels of additional compensation). These payment
arrangements, however, will not change the price that an
investor pays for shares of the Fund or the amount that the Fund
receives to invest on behalf of an investor. Investors may wish
to take such payment arrangements into account when considering
and evaluating any recommendations relating to Fund shares and
should review carefully any disclosure provided by Morgan
Stanley & Co. or any other Intermediary as to its
compensation.
3) The section entitled TRANSFER AGENT
is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following:
The Fund has entered into a transfer agency and service
agreement with Investor Services, pursuant to which Investor
Services serves as the Funds transfer agent, shareholder
service agent and dividend disbursing agent. As consideration
for the services it provides, Investor Services receives
transfer agency fees in amounts that are determined through
negotiations with the Fund and are approved by the Funds
Board of Trustees. The transfer agency fees are based on
competitive benchmarks. The Fund and Investor Services may enter
into agreements with third party intermediaries, pursuant to
which such intermediaries agree to provide recordkeeping and
other administrative services for their clients who invest in
the Fund. In such instances, the Fund will pay certain fees to
the intermediaries for the services they provide that otherwise
would have been performed by Investor Services.
