Shareholders of the 71 funds involved in the solicitation approved most of the proposals presented for most of the funds. The meeting for a smaller group of funds was adjourned until Thursday, June 19, 2008 for certain proposals. Consequently, for those funds for which the meeting was adjourned, Pioneer will mail vote reminder notices and proxy cards to shareholders who have not voted. Also, for certain funds, the funds' proxy solicitor, Computershare Fund Services, will call shareholders and encourage them to vote and offer the option to vote via telephone. The funds' board of trustees recommends that shareholders vote "FOR" each proposal. -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
