	The IRS requires that the named transfer agent (“we”) report the cost
basis of certain shares or units acquired after January 1, 2011. If your
shares or units are covered by the legislation, and you requested to sell
or transfer the shares or units using a specific cost basis calculation
method, then we have processed as you requested.  If you did not
specify a cost basis calculation method, then we have defaulted to the
first in, first out (FIFO) method. Please consult your tax advisor if you
need additional information about cost basis.
If you do not keep in contact with the issuer or do not have any
activity in your account for the time period specified by state law,
your property may become subject to state unclaimed property
laws and transferred to the appropriate state.
