**The following information supersedes and replaces any contrary information in the sections "Shareholder Guide – Choosing a Share Class – Class A Shares," " – Class C Shares" and " – Class I Shares" in the fund's statutory prospectus:** 

**Class A Shares**

When you invest in Class A shares, you pay the public offering price, which is the share price, or net asset value (NAV), plus the initial sales charge that may apply to your purchase. The amount of the initial sales charge is based on the size of your investment, as the following table shows.

If you invest $250,000 or more (and are not eligible to purchase Class I or Y shares), Class A shares, rather than Class C shares, will always be the most advantageous choice.

| Less than $50,000 | 4.50 | 4.71 |

| $100,000 to less than $250,000 | 3.00 | 3.09 |
| $250,000 or more<sup>\*</sup> | -0- | -0- |
| <sup>\*</sup> No front-end sales load applies on investments of $250,000 or more, but a CDSC of 1.00% may be imposed on certain redemptions of such shares within one year of the date of purchase. See "Additional Information About CDSCs" below. | <sup>\*</sup> No front-end sales load applies on investments of $250,000 or more, but a CDSC of 1.00% may be imposed on certain redemptions of such shares within one year of the date of purchase.

**If you purchase Class A shares directly from the fund or through a financial intermediary, other than those financial intermediaries as described in the Appendix to the prospectus, you can reduce your initial sales charge in the following ways:**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● *Rights of accumulation.* You can count toward the amount of your investment your total account value in all shares of the fund and other funds in the BNY Mellon Family of Funds that are subject to a sales charge. For example, if you have $250,000 invested in shares that are subject to a sales charge of other funds in the BNY Mellon Family of Funds, you can invest in Class A shares of the fund without an initial sales charge. For purposes of determining "your total account value", shares held will be valued at their current market value. We may terminate or change this privilege at any time on written notice.

**Class C Shares**

Because Class A shares will always be a more favorable investment than Class C shares for investments of $250,000 or more, the fund will generally not accept a purchase order for Class C shares in the amount of $250,000 or more. While the fund will take reasonable steps to prevent investments of $250,000 or more in Class C shares, it may not be able to identify such investments made through certain financial intermediaries or omnibus accounts.

**Class I Shares**

Since you pay no initial sales charge, an investment of less than $250,000 in Class I shares buys more shares than the same investment would in a class of shares subject to an initial sales charge.
