Chairman's Letter

Dear Shareholder,

I am pleased to present to you this semi-annual report for the Neuberger Berman Intermediate Municipal Closed-End Funds for the six months ended April 30, 2008. The report includes portfolio commentary, listings of the Funds' investments, and their financial statements for the reporting period.

Each Fund's investment objective is to provide a high level of current income exempt from regular federal income tax and, for each state-specific fund, a high level of current income exempt from that state's personal income taxes (and, in the case of the New York Fund, New York City personal income tax).

We invest in intermediate-term municipal bonds because our experience and research indicate strongly that this maturity range has historically offered the best risk/reward profile on the yield curve, providing much of the return of longer-term bonds — with less volatility and risk.

We believe that our conservative investment philosophy and disciplined investment process will benefit you with superior tax exempt current income over the long term.

Since February 2008, the market for auction rate preferred securities has experienced significant disruption that has resulted in failed auctions for many of these securities, including the auction market preferred shares issued by the Funds. While at this time we cannot predict whether, how or when complete or partial liquidity will return, we continue to work toward finding a solution while keeping in mind the interests of both the common and preferred shareholders of the Funds.

Thank you for your confidence in Neuberger Berman. We will continue to do our best to earn it.

Sincerely,

Peter Sundman
Chairman of the Board

Intermediate Municipal Closed-End Funds Portfolio Commentaries

For the six months ended April 30, 2008, on a net asset value (NAV) basis, all three of the Neuberger Berman Intermediate Municipal Closed End Funds posted positive returns, outperforming the Lipper Closed-End Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Average but trailing the Lehman Bothers 10-Year Municipal Bond Index.

Over the first two months of the period, the fixed income markets showed some signs of stabilizing as the credit crunch triggered by the subprime mortgage crisis appeared to be easing. However, in January, credit market conditions began to deteriorate rapidly as major U.S. financial institutions continued to announce huge write-downs of fixed income assets and France's Société Générale reported a substantial loss. At this juncture, many segments of the fixed income markets, including the municipal securities auction market, seized up. The Fed responded with a 75-basis-point (0.75%) inter-meeting rate cut followed by another 50-basis-point cut a week later at its regularly scheduled January meeting. In addition, it took steps to inject liquidity by creating term auction facilities for banks. However, before these Fed actions could have much impact, in March, Bear Stearns, the U.S.'s fifth largest inves tment bank, appeared close to failure, prompting panic selling in the corporate bond and equities markets. Once again, the Fed moved aggressively, backing the JPMorgan Chase acquisition of Bear Stearns, cutting interest rates by an additional 75 basis points, and opening its discount window (lending facilities) to primary fixed income dealers. By April, the last month of this semi-annual reporting period, frozen credit markets started to thaw, but fixed income investors remained wary.

In the midst of this kind of market disruption, investment grade municipal securities conceivably could have benefited from investors' "flight to quality." However, several factors created a cloud over the municipal market: paralysis in the municipal securities auction market, credit downgrades and/or credit watches for a number of AAA-rated municipal bond insurers, and the mass liquidation of municipal securities by hedge funds seeking to meet margin calls.

We believe that a decline in the amount of issues enhanced with AAA insurance will create additional opportunities to add yield and illustrate the benefit of our research-intensive approach. We also think the worst of the hedge fund selling is over. The silver lining to this cloud is that the yields on high grade municipal securities now approximate the yields on comparable maturity U.S. Treasuries, creating an even greater yield advantage for investors in high federal and state income tax brackets.

Under more normal circumstances, we would have responded to Fed rate cuts by extending the weighted average maturity and duration of the Funds' portfolios. Recently, we have been selectively adding some longer maturity securities to the Funds' portfolios. However, we are reluctant to move too far out on the yield curve, because inflation remains a problem that we believe Fed Chairman Bernanke will eventually have to confront. This will not likely happen until the economy has weathered the current storm, but when GDP growth increases to the 2%–3% range, we believe the Fed will reverse course and begin tightening.

Our primary response to the challenges in the municipal securities market has been to remain diligent in analyzing the credit quality of portfolio holdings. We have been weeding out revenue bonds of more economically sensitive issuers and gravitating to securities with high levels of debt service coverage and strong legal covenants securing revenue streams.

Looking ahead, although we can't be sure that more "shoes won't drop," leading financial companies have bolstered their balance sheets and we suspect that write-downs will trend lower over the next several quarters. A healthier financial sector along with low interest rates and a Fed that has come up with some creative solutions to free up credit should combine to help stabilize the fixed income markets. In addition, municipal securities' historically high after-tax yield advantage over U.S. Treasuries should, in our view, create a more favorable response from fixed income investors.

†  Investments in securities by Neuberger Berman California Intermediate Municipal Fund Inc. ("California"), Neuberger Berman Intermediate Municipal Fund Inc. ("Intermediate"), and Neuberger Berman New York Intermediate Municipal Fund Inc. ("New York") (individually a "Fund", and collectively, the "Funds") are valued daily by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on readily available bid quotations, or if quotations are not available, by methods which include considerations such as: yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions. If a valuation is not available from an independent pricing service, the funds seek to obtain quotations from principal market makers. If market quotations are not readily available, securities are valued by methods each Fund's Board of Directors has approved on the belief that they reflect fair value. Numerous factors may be considered when determining the fair value of a security, including available analyst, media or other reports, trading in futures or ADRs and whether the issuer of the security being fair valued has other securities outstanding. Short-term debt securities with less than 60 days until maturity may be valued at cost which, when combined with interest earned, approximates market value.

##  At April 30, 2008, selected Fund information on a U.S. federal income tax basis was as follows:

@  At time of investment, municipal securities purchased by the Funds are within the four highest rating categories (with respect to at least 80% of total assets) assigned by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization ("NRSRO") such as Moody's Investors Service, Inc., Standard & Poor's, or Fitch Investors Services, Inc. or, where not rated, are determined by the Funds' investment manager to be of comparable quality. Approximately 77%, 72%, and 67% of the municipal securities held by California, Intermediate, and New York, respectively, have credit enhancement features backing them, which the Funds may rely on, such as letters of credit, insurance, or guarantees. Without these credit enhancement features the securities may or may not meet the quality standards of the Funds. Pre-refunded bonds are supported by securities in escrow issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies, or instrumental ities. The amount escrowed is sufficient to pay the periodic interest due and the principal of these bonds. Putable bonds give the Funds the right to sell back the issue on the date specified.

ß  Security is guaranteed by the corporate or non-profit obligor.

ñ  Restricted security subject to restrictions on resale under federal securities laws. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and have been deemed by the investment manager to be liquid. At April 30, 2008, these securities amounted to approximately $4,432,000 or 1.5% of net assets applicable to common shareholders for Intermediate.

µ  Floating rate securities are securities whose yields vary with a designated market index or market rate. These securities are shown at their current rates as of April 30, 2008.

a  Security is subject to a guarantee provided by Bayerische Landesbank, backing 100% of the total principal.

Notes to Financial Statements Intermediate Municipal Closed-End Funds (Unaudited)

Note A—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

1  General: Neuberger Berman California Intermediate Municipal Fund Inc. ("California"), Neuberger Berman Intermediate Municipal Fund Inc. ("Intermediate"), and Neuberger Berman New York Intermediate Municipal Fund Inc. ("New York") (individually a "Fund" and, collectively, the "Funds") were organized as Maryland corporations on July 29, 2002. California and New York are registered as non-diversified, closed-end management investment companies and Intermediate is registered as a diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Each Fund's Board of Directors may classify or re-classify any unissued shares of capital stock into one or more classes of preferred stock without the approval of shareholders.

  The assets of each Fund belong only to that Fund, and the liabilities of each Fund are borne solely by that Fund and no other.

  The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires Neuberger Berman Management Inc. ("Management") to make estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2  Portfolio valuation: Investment securities are valued as indicated in the notes following the Funds' Schedule of Investments.

3  Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Interest income, including accretion of discount (adjusted for original issue discount, where applicable) and amortization of premium, where applicable, is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the basis of identified cost and stated separately in the Statements of Operations.

4  Income tax information: Each Fund is treated as a separate entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is the policy of each Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its earnings to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.

  In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission guidance, the Funds implemented the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48"), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. The Funds have reviewed the tax positions for the open tax period as of April 30, 2008 and the open tax years as of October 31, 2007, and have determined that the implementation of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Funds' financial statements.

  Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by each Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by each Fund as a whole.

  As determined on October 31, 2007, there were no permanent differences resulting from different book and tax accounting reclassified at fiscal year-end.

  The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended October 31, 2007 and October 31, 2006 were as follows:

Distributions Paid From:  
    Tax-Exempt Income   Ordinary Income   Total  
    2007   2006   2007   2006   2007   2006  
California   $ 6,689,147     $ 6,741,577     $ 6,563     $ 6,567     $ 6,695,710     $ 6,748,144    
Intermediate     20,429,346       21,418,996       40,416       35,155       20,469,762       21,454,151    
New York     5,418,857       5,696,502       4,701       4,389       5,423,558       5,700,891    

 


27



  As of October 31, 2007, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a U.S federal income tax basis were as follows:

    Undistributed
Tax-Exempt
Income
  Undistributed
Ordinary
Income
  Undistributed
Long-Term
Gain
  Unrealized
Appreciation
(Depreciation)
  Loss
Carryforwards
and Deferrals
  Total  
California   $ 375,119     $     $     $ 3,138,120     $ (230,084 )   $ 3,283,155    
Intermediate     757,071                   9,123,612       (1,023,927 )     8,856,756    
New York     204,007                   1,544,142       (538,034 )     1,210,115    

 

  The differences between book basis and tax basis distributable earnings is attributable primarily to timing differences of distribution payments.

  To the extent each Fund's net realized capital gains, if any, can be offset by capital loss carryforwards, it is the policy of each Fund not to distribute such gains. As determined at October 31, 2007, the Funds had unused capital loss carryforwards available for federal income tax purposes to offset net realized capital gains, if any, as follows:

    Expiring in:  
    2011   2012   2013   2014   2015  
California   $     $ 225,607     $ 4,477     $     $    
Intermediate     509,968       328,363       58,816             126,780    
New York     362,560       156,636       18,838                

 

5  Distributions to shareholders: Each Fund earns income, net of expenses, daily on its investments. It is the policy of each Fund to declare quarterly and pay monthly distributions. Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are normally distributed in December. Distributions to common shareholders are recorded on the ex-date. Distributions to preferred shareholders are accrued and determined as described in Note A-7.

  Subsequent to April 30, 2008, each Fund declared three monthly distributions to common shareholders payable June 16, 2008, July 15, 2008 and August 15, 2008 to shareholders of record on May 30, 2008, June 30, 2008 and July 31, 2008, with ex-dates of May 28, 2008, June 26, 2008 and July 29, 2008, as follows:

    Distribution per share  
California   $ 0.053294    
Intermediate     0.054217    
New York     0.053430    

 

6  Expense allocation: Certain expenses are applicable to multiple funds. Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged to that Fund. Expenses borne by the complex of related investment companies, which includes open-end and closed-end investment companies for which Management serves as investment manager, that are not directly attributed to a Fund are allocated among the Funds and the other investment companies in the complex or series thereof on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each investment company in the complex or series thereof can otherwise be made fairly.

7  Redeemable preferred shares: On October 21, 2002, the Funds re-classified unissued shares of capital stock into several series of Auction Market Preferred Shares ("AMPS"), as follows:

    Series A Shares   Series B Shares  
California     1,500       1,500    
Intermediate     4,000       4,000    
New York     1,500       1,500    

 


28



  On December 13, 2002, the Funds issued several series of AMPS, as follows:

    Series A Shares   Series B Shares  
California     1,180       1,180    
Intermediate     3,588       3,588    
New York     965       965    

 

  All shares of each series of AMPS have a liquidation preference of $25,000 per share plus any accumulated unpaid distributions, whether or not earned or declared by the Fund, but excluding interest thereon ("Liquidation Value"). Distributions to AMPS shareholders, which are cumulative, are accrued daily. It is the policy of each Fund to pay distributions every 7 days for each Fund's AMPS Series A and every 28 days for each Fund's AMPS Series B, unless in a special rate period.

  In the absence of a special rate period, distribution rates are reset every 7 days for each Fund's AMPS Series A, based on the results of an auction. For the six months ended April 30, 2008, distribution rates ranged from:

    Distribution Rate  
California     2.77 % – 4.36%  
Intermediate     2.87 % – 4.60%  
New York     2.51 % – 4.36%  

 

  In the absence of a special rate period, distribution rates are reset every 28 days for each Fund's AMPS Series B, based on the results of an auction. For the six months ended April 30, 2008, distribution rates ranged from:

    Distribution Rate  
California     2.94 % – 3.90%  
Intermediate     3.06 % – 4.90%  
New York     3.10 % – 4.40%  

 

  The Funds declared distributions to AMPS shareholders for the period May 1, 2008 to May 31, 2008 for each series of the AMPS as follows:

    Series A Shares   Series B Shares  
California   $ 80,050     $ 74,474    
Intermediate     242,913       225,902    
New York     66,000       63,789    

 

  Since February 2008, the market for auction rate preferred securities has experienced an unprecedented number of failed auctions. A failed auction occurs when sellers outnumber bidders and, as a result, sellers cannot sell all, and in many cases any, of their auction rate preferred securities. When a failed auction occurs, the distribution rate for auction rate preferred securities resets to a maximum rate, which is typically determined according to a formula applied to a "base" rate. Historically, if there were not a sufficient number of bids to purchase all the auction rate preferred securities submitted to be sold in an auction, one or more broker-dealers would voluntarily allocate their own capital to purchase the remaining auction rate preferred securities. In doing so, the broker-dealer(s) would prevent a failed auction and, therefore, payment of distributions at the maximum rate. Earlier this year, most broker -dealers ceased allocating their capital to auctions for auction rate preferred securities, resulting in the unprecedented number of failed auctions.

  Beginning in February 2008, the auctions for the Funds' AMPS have consistently failed. Although the failed auctions have resulted in a current lack of liquidity for preferred shareholders, they are not an event of default for the Funds nor have they affected the credit quality of the AMPS, which all continue to be rated AAA/Aaa. The Funds have paid, and continue to pay, distribution rates on their AMPS that are set at the maximum rate, which is


29



110% of the base rate (the base rate is the greater of an "AA" rated composite commercial paper rate or the taxable equivalent of a short-term municipal bond rate) as a result of the failed auctions.

  If auctions continue to fail and the maximum rate increases due to changes in short term interest rates, the Funds' returns for common shareholders could be adversely affected. The Funds continue to monitor the developments in the AMPS market and consider the interests of the common and preferred shareholders when evaluating any potential solutions.

  The Funds may redeem shares of each series of AMPS, in whole or in part, on the second business day preceding any distribution payment date at Liquidation Value.

  The Funds are also subject to certain restrictions relating to the AMPS. Failure to comply with these restrictions could preclude the Funds from declaring any distributions to common shareholders or repurchasing common shares and/or could trigger the mandatory redemption of AMPS at Liquidation Value.

  The holders of AMPS are entitled to one vote per share and will vote with holders of common shares as a single class, except that the AMPS will vote separately as a class on certain matters, as required by law or a Fund's charter. The holders of a Fund's AMPS, voting as a separate class, are entitled at all times to elect two Directors of the Fund, and to elect a majority of the Directors of a Fund if the Fund fails to pay distributions on AMPS for two consecutive years.

8  Concentration of risk: The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the Funds to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments, including those particular to a specific industry or region. California and New York normally invest substantially all of their assets in municipal bonds of issuers located in the state of California and the state of New York, respectively. The value of each of these Funds' securities are more susceptible to adverse economic, political, regulatory or other factors affecting the issuers of such municipal bonds than a fund that does not limit its investments to such issuers.

9  Indemnifications: Like many other companies, the Funds' organizational documents provide that their officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, both in some of their principal service contracts and in the normal course of their business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. Each Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims against each Fund.

Note B—Management Fees, Administration Fees, and Other Transactions With Affiliates:

  Each Fund retains Management as its investment manager under a Management Agreement. For such investment management services, each Fund pays Management a fee at the annual rate of 0.25% of its average daily Managed Assets. Managed Assets equal the total assets of the Fund, less liabilities other than the aggregate indebtedness entered into for purposes of leverage. For purposes of calculating Managed Assets, the Liquidation Value of any AMPS outstanding is not considered a liability.

  Management has contractually agreed to waive a portion of the management fees it is entitled to receive from each Fund at the following annual rates:

Year Ended
October 31,
  % of Average
Daily Managed Assets
 
  2008       0.20 %  
  2009       0.15    
  2010       0.10    
  2011       0.05    

 

  Management has not agreed to waive any portion of its fees beyond October 31, 2011.


30



  For the six months ended April 30, 2008, such waived fees amounted to $157,230, $478,326, and $127,603 for California, Intermediate, and New York, respectively.

  Each Fund retains Management as its administrator under an Administration Agreement. Each Fund pays Management an administration fee at the annual rate of 0.30% of its average daily Managed Assets under this agreement. Additionally, Management retains State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") as its sub-administrator under a Sub-Administration Agreement. Management pays State Street a fee for all services received under the agreement.

  Management and Neuberger Berman, LLC ("Neuberger"), a member firm of the New York Stock Exchange and sub-adviser to each Fund, are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., a publicly-owned holding company. Neuberger is retained by Management to furnish it with investment recommendations and research information without added cost to each Fund. Several individuals who are officers and/or Directors of each Fund are also employees of Neuberger and/or Management.

  Each Fund has an expense offset arrangement in connection with its custodian contract. For the six months ended April 30, 2008, the impact of this arrangement was a reduction of expenses of $2,262, $1,611, and $861 for California, Intermediate, and New York, respectively.

  In connection with the settlement of each AMPS auction, each Fund pays, through the auction agent, a service fee to each participating broker-dealer based upon the aggregate liquidation preference of the AMPS held by the broker-dealer's customers. For any auction preceding a rate period of less than one year, the service fee is paid at the annual rate of 1/4 of 1%; for any auction preceding a rate period of one year or more, the service fee is paid at a rate agreed to by each Fund and the broker-dealer.

  In order to satisfy rating agencies' requirements, each Fund is required to provide each rating agency a report on a monthly basis verifying that each Fund is maintaining eligible assets having a discounted value equal to or greater than the Preferred Shares Basic Maintenance Amount, which is a minimum level set by each rating agency as one of the conditions to maintain the AAA/Aaa rating on the AMPS. "Discounted value" refers to the fact that the rating agencies require each Fund, in performing this calculation, to discount portfolio securities below their face value, at rates determined by the rating agencies. Each Fund pays a fee to State Street for the preparation of this report which is reflected in the Statements of Operations under the caption "Basic maintenance expense."

Note C—Securities Transactions:

  During the six months ended April 30, 2008, there were purchase and sale transactions (excluding short-term securities) as follows:

Note E—Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

  In September 2006, Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB Statement No. 157, "Fair Value Measurement" ("SFAS 157"), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management believes the adoption of SFAS 157 will not have a material impact on the Funds' financial position or results of operations.

  In March 2008, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 161"). SFAS 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. SFAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about the Funds' derivative and hedging activities. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 161 will have on the Funds' financial statement disclosures.

Notes to Financial Highlights Intermediate Municipal Closed-End Funds (Unaudited)

†  Total return based on per share net asset value reflects the effects of changes in net asset value on the performance of each Fund during each fiscal period. Total return based on per share market value assumes the purchase of common shares at the market price on the first day and sale of common shares at the market price on the last day of the period indicated. Dividends and distributions, if any, are assumed to be reinvested at prices obtained under each Fund's distribution reinvestment plan. Results represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Current returns may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Investment returns may fluctuate and shares when sold may be worth more or less than original cost. For each Fund, total return would have been lower if Management had not waived a portion of the investment management fee.

#  The Fund is required to calculate an expense ratio without taking into consideration any expense reductions related to expense offset arrangements.

‡  After waiver of a portion of the investment management fee by Management. Had Management not undertaken such action, the annualized ratios of net expenses to average daily net assets applicable to common shareholders would have been:

Distribution Reinvestment Plan

The Bank of New York ("Plan Agent") will act as Plan Agent for shareholders who have not elected in writing to receive dividends and distributions in cash (each a "Participant"), will open an account for each Participant under the Distribution Reinvestment Plan ("Plan") in the same name as their then current Shares are registered, and will put the Plan into effect for each Participant as of the first record date for a dividend or capital gains distribution.

Whenever the Fund declares a dividend or distribution with respect to the common stock of the Fund ("Shares"), each Participant will receive such dividends and distributions in additional Shares, including fractional Shares acquired by the Plan Agent and credited to each Participant's account. If on the payment date for a cash dividend or distribution, the net asset value is equal to or less than the market price per Share plus estimated brokerage commissions, the Plan Agent shall automatically receive such Shares, including fractions, for each Participant's account. Except in the circumstances described in the next paragraph, the number of additional Shares to be credited to each Participant's account shall be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the dividend or distribution payable on their Shares by the greater of the net asset value per Share determined as of the date of purchase or 95% of the then current market pric e per Share on the payment date.

Should the net asset value per Share exceed the market price per Share plus estimated brokerage commissions on the payment date for a cash dividend or distribution, the Plan Agent or a broker-dealer selected by the Plan Agent shall endeavor, for a purchase period lasting until the last business day before the next date on which the Shares trade on an "ex-dividend" basis, but in no event, except as provided below, more than 30 days after the payment date, to apply the amount of such dividend or distribution on each Participant's Shares (less their pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Plan Agent's open-market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of such dividend or distribution) to purchase Shares on the open market for each Participant's acc ount. No such purchases may be made more than 30 days after the payment date for such dividend or distribution except where temporary curtailment or suspension of purchase is necessary to comply with applicable provisions of federal securities laws. If, at the close of business on any day during the purchase period the net asset value per Share equals or is less than the market price per Share plus estimated brokerage commissions, the Plan Agent will not make any further open-market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of such dividend or distribution. If the Plan Agent is unable to invest the full dividend or distribution amount through open-market purchases during the purchase period, the Plan Agent shall request that, with respect to the uninvested portion of such dividend or distribution amount, the Fund issue new Shares at the close of business on the earlier of the last day of the purchase period or the first day during the purchase period on which the net asset value per Share equals or is le ss than the market price per Share, plus estimated brokerage commissions, such Shares to be issued in accordance with the terms specified in the third paragraph hereof. These newly issued Shares will be valued at the then-current market price per Share at the time such Shares are to be issued.

For purposes of making the reinvestment purchase comparison under the Plan, (a) the market price of the Shares on a particular date shall be the last sales price on the New York Stock Exchange (or if the Shares are not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, such other exchange on which the Shares are principally traded) on that date, or, if there is no sale on such Exchange (or if not so listed, in the over-the-counter market) on that date, then the mean between the closing bid and asked quotations for such Shares on such Exchange on such date and (b) the net asset value per Share on a particular date shall be the net asset value per Share most recently calculated by or on behalf of the Fund. All dividends, distributions and other payments (whether made in cash or Shares) shall be made net of any applicable withholding tax.

Open-market purchases provided for above may be made on any securities exchange where the Fund's Shares are traded, in the over-the-counter market or in negotiated transactions and may be on such terms as to price, delivery and otherwise as the Plan Agent shall determine. Each Participant's uninvested funds held by the Plan Agent will not bear interest, and it is understood that, in any event, the Plan Agent shall have no liability in connection with any inability to purchase Shares within 30 days after the initial date of such purchase as herein provided, or with the timing of any purchases effected. The Plan Agent shall have no responsibility as to the value of the Shares acquired for each Participant's account. For the purpose of cash investments, the Plan Agent may commingle each Participant's funds with those of other shareholders of


37



the Fund for whom the Plan Agent similarly acts as agent, and the average price (including brokerage commissions) of all Shares purchased by the Plan Agent as Plan Agent shall be the price per Share allocable to each Participant in connection therewith.

The Plan Agent may hold each Participant's Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan together with the Shares of other shareholders of the Fund acquired pursuant to the Plan in noncertificated form in the Plan Agent's name or that of the Plan Agent's nominee. The Plan Agent will forward to each Participant any proxy solicitation material and will vote any Shares so held for each Participant only in accordance with the instructions set forth on proxies returned by the Participant to the Fund.

The Plan Agent will confirm to each Participant each acquisition made for their account as soon as practicable but not later than 60 days after the date thereof. Although each Participant may from time to time have an undivided fractional interest (computed to three decimal places) in a Share, no certificates for a fractional Share will be issued. However, dividends and distributions on fractional Shares will be credited to each Participant's account. In the event of termination of a Participant's account under the Plan, the Plan Agent will adjust for any such undivided fractional interest in cash at the market value of the Shares at the time of termination, less the pro rata expense of any sale required to make such an adjustment.

Any Share dividends or split Shares distributed by the Fund on Shares held by the Plan Agent for Participants will be credited to their accounts. In the event that the Fund makes available to its shareholders rights to purchase additional Shares or other securities, the Shares held for each Participant under the Plan will be added to other Shares held by the Participant in calculating the number of rights to be issued to each Participant.

The Plan Agent's service fee for handling capital gains distributions or income dividends will be paid by the Fund. Participants will be charged their pro rata share of brokerage commissions on all open-market purchases.

Each Participant may terminate their account under the Plan by notifying the Plan Agent in writing. Such termination will be effective immediately if the Participant's notice is received by the Plan Agent not less than ten days prior to any dividend or distribution record date, otherwise such termination will be effective the first trading day after the payment date for such dividend or distribution with respect to any subsequent dividend or distribution. The Plan may be terminated by the Plan Agent or the Fund upon notice in writing mailed to each Participant at least 30 days prior to any record date for the payment of any dividend or distribution by the Fund.

These terms and conditions may be amended or supplemented by the Plan Agent or the Fund at any time or times but, except when necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable law or the rules or policies of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other regulatory authority, only by mailing to each Participant appropriate written notice at least 30 days prior to the effective date thereof. The amendment or supplement shall be deemed to be accepted by each Participant unless, prior to the effective date thereof, the Plan Agent receives written notice of the termination of their account under the Plan. Any such amendment may include an appointment by the Plan Agent in its place and stead of a successor Plan Agent under these terms and conditions, with full power and authority to perform all or any of the acts to be performed by the Plan Agent under these terms and conditions. Upon any such appointment of any Plan Agent for the purpose of receiving dividends and distributions, the Fund will be authorized to pay to such successor Plan Agent, for each Participant's account, all dividends and distributions payable on Shares held in their name or under the Plan for retention or application by such successor Plan Agent as provided in these terms and conditions.

The Plan Agent shall at all times act in good faith and agrees to use its best efforts within reasonable limits to ensure the accuracy of all services performed under this Agreement and to comply with applicable law, but assumes no responsibility and shall not be liable for loss or damage due to errors unless such error is caused by the Plan Agent's negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct or that of its employees.

These terms and conditions shall be governed by the laws of the State of Maryland.
