(b) The disclosure under the subheading Series D units on page 27 is hereby deleted and replaced with the following: Series D units are available to investors who have accounts with RBC DI, and may also be available at other discount brokers, where you must invest and maintain a minimum balance of $500 for each fund and any additional investments must be at least $25.
