The purpose of this amendment is to update Item 14. Exhibit (a)(4) to include a letter from Deloitte & Touche, LLP, which was inadvertently omitted.

Item 14. Exhibits.
| (a)(2) | The certifications required by Rule 30a-2(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.Cert. |
| (a)(3) | Not applicable. |
| (a)(4) | Letter from Deloitte & Touche, LLP |
Effective as of the close of business on March 13, 2024, Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte") resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Funds. The report of Deloitte on the Funds' financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainties, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the Funds' most recent fiscal year, and through March 13, 2024, there were no disagreements between the Funds and Deloitte on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Deloitte, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its report on the financial statements of the Funds for such year. During the Funds' fiscal year ended April 30, 2023, there were no "reportable events" (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")).
During each Fund's fiscal year ended April 30, 2023 and the subsequent interim period through March 13, 2024, neither the Funds, nor anyone on their behalf, consulted with Deloitte, on behalf of the Funds, regarding any matter that was either the subject of a "disagreement," as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the instructions thereto, or a "reportable event," as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act.
| (b) | The certifications by the Registrant's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as required by Rule 30a-2(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.906Cert. |
