11/12/07 11/07/07 Distributions offer shareholders the opportunity
to accumulate more shares in a fund via the automatic dividend
reinvestment plan. For example, if a fund's shares are trading at a
premium, distributions will be automatically reinvested through the
plan at NAV or 95% of the market price, whichever is greater; if
shares are trading at a discount, distributions will be reinvested
at the market price through an open market purchase program. Thus,
the plan offers current shareholders an efficient method of
accumulating additional shares with a potential for cost savings.
Please see the dividend reinvestment plan for more information. The
Funds have level rate distribution policies paying monthly
distributions at the stated rates. Distributions paid may include
net investment income, net realized short-term capital gains and,
if necessary, return of capital. In addition, distributions may
include net realized long-term capital gains as permitted by the
Investment Company Act of 1940. There is no guarantee that the
Funds will realize capital gains in any given year. Distributions
are subject to re-characterization for tax purposes after the end
of the fiscal year. All shareholders with taxable accounts will
receive written notification regarding the components and tax
treatment for distributions via Form 1099-DIV. Distributions from
the Funds are generally subject to Federal income taxes. For
purposes of maintaining the level rate distribution policy, the
Funds may realize short-term capital gains on securities that, if
sold at a later date, would have resulted in long-term capital
gains. Maintenance of a level rate distribution policy may increase
transaction and tax costs associated with the Funds. Additional
information about the Funds, including commentary, portfolio
holdings, and a description of the Funds' dividend reinvestment
plan is posted at Calamos Investments' Web site,

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. As with other
investments, market price will fluctuate with the market and upon
sale, your shares may have a market price that is above or below
net asset value and may be worth more or less than your original
investment. About Calamos Calamos Investments is a diversified
