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


 

Intermediary’s financial advisors and consultants, providing assistance in the ongoing training and education of the Intermediary’s 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 Intermediary’s customers (which could include current or aged assets of the Fund and/or some or all other Van Kampen funds), the Fund’s 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 Fund’s 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 Fund’s 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.
