Example

The Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.  The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods.  The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the fund's operating expenses remain the same.  The one-year example and the first year of the three-, five- and ten-year examples are based on net operating expenses, which reflect the expense limitation agreement by The Dreyfus Corporation. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

[2] The fund's investment adviser, The Dreyfus Corporation, has contractually agreed, until March 1, 2019, to waive receipt of its fees and/or assume the direct expenses of the Class A shares of the fund so that the expenses of such Class A shares (excluding shareholder services fees, taxes, interest, brokerage commissions, commitment fees on borrowings and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed .77%. On or after March 1, 2019, The Dreyfus Corporation may terminate this expense limitation at any time.
