                              CERTIFIED RESOLUTIONS

     The  resolutions  set  forth  below  were  duly  adopted  by the  Boards of
Trustees/Directors  of  those  investment  companies  covered  by  the  enclosed
fidelity bond for the period from October 31, 2006 through  October 31, 2007 and
remain in full force and effect as of the date hereof:

Resolutions  Adopted  at a Meeting  of the Board of  Trustees/Directors  Held on
October 26, 2006


Approval of Fidelity Bond Coverage

WHEREAS, this Board of  Trustees/Directors  has considered the form of the joint
insured broker's blanket bond for the Delaware  Investments family of Funds, and
the amount of such joint insured  broker's  blanket bond, and has considered the
value of the aggregate  assets of the Funds to which any covered person may have
access,  the  type and  terms  of the  arrangements  made  for the  custody  and
safekeeping of the assets of the Fund's Series,  the nature of the securities in
such  Series'  portfolio  and the relative  higher cost of a  comparable  single
insured bond for each Fund; and

WHEREAS,  the  Board,   including  the  Trustees/Directors  who  were  not  then
interested  persons  with  respect to the Fund,  has  concluded  that the Fund's
participation in the proposed joint insured broker's blanket bond is in the best
interest of the Fund and its shareholders.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS RESOLVED, that the officers of the Fund are authorized and
directed  to cause  each of its  Series  to  participate  in the  joint  insured
broker's blanket bonds in the aggregate amount of $40,000,000, which also covers
the other Delaware Investments Funds, and that the Fund shall pay its respective
share of the premium; and it is further

RESOLVED,  that the officers of the Fund are hereby  authorized  and directed to
execute an agreement under Section 17(g) of the 1940 Act with the other insureds
listed on the  broker's  blanket bond (the  "Agreement"),  whereby the Fund will
bear its  proportionate  share of the premium and coverage of the bond,  and the
share of the premium and coverage of the other Funds shall, if  appropriate,  be
proportionately adjusted; and it is further

RESOLVED,  that the officers of the Fund are hereby  authorized  and directed to
file with the Securities and Exchange  Commission ("SEC") a copy of the bond and
a copy of the resolutions  approving the amount,  type, form and coverage of the
bond and the portion of the premium to be paid by each of the Fund's  Series,  a
statement  showing  the amount of the single  insured  bond which the Fund would
have  provided  and  maintained  had it not been named as an  insured  under the
broker's  blanket  bond  described  herein,  a statement of the period for which
premiums  have been paid and a copy of the  Agreement,  all  pursuant to Section
17(g) of the 1940 Act, and that the Secretary or any Assistant  Secretary of the
Fund be designated as the officers directed to make all necessary  filings;  and
it is further

RESOLVED,  that this Board,  including those  Trustees/Directors who do not have
control over or access to any of the portfolio securities, funds or other assets
of the Fund's Series, hereby conclude that the amount, scope and coverage of the
fidelity bond of the Fund are adequate; and it is further

RESOLVED,  that this Board,  taking all  relevant  factors  into  consideration,
hereby  determines  that it is in the best  interest  of the Fund and the Fund's
shareholders  for the Fund and each Series to  participate  in the joint insured
broker's  blanket bond described at this meeting,  and that the proposed premium
allocation to the Fund and to each Series is fair and reasonable to the Fund and
each Series based upon a consideration of the relative higher premium that would
have been paid if comparable insurance coverage were purchased separately by the
insured parties.

furnished to the COMPANY by the ASSURED,  and subject to the DECLARATIONS made a
part of this Bond and to all other terms and conditions of this Bond,  agrees to
pay the ASSURED for:

Insuring Clauses

Employee

1. Loss  resulting  directly  from  Larceny  or  Embezzlement  committed  by any
Employee, alone or in collusion with others.

On Premises

2. Loss of Property resulting directly from robbery,  burglary, false pretenses,
common  law  or  statutory  larceny,   misplacement,   mysterious  unexplainable
disappearance,  damage, destruction or removal, from the possession,  custody or
control of the ASSURED,  while such  Property is lodged or deposited at premises
located anywhere.

In Transit

3. Loss of Property  resulting  directly  from common law or statutory  larceny,
misplacement,  mysterious  unexplainable  disappearance,  damage or destruction,
while the Property is in transit anywhere:

a. in an armored motor vehicle, including loading and unloading thereof,

b. in the custody of a natural person acting as a messenger of the ASSURED, or

c. in the  custody  of a  Transportation  Company  and  being  transported  in a
conveyance other than an armored motor vehicle provided,  however,  that covered
Property transported in such manner is limited to the following:

(1) written records,

(2)  securities  issued  in  registered  form,  which  are not  endorsed  or are
restrictively endorsed, or

(3) negotiable  instruments not payable to bearer, which are not endorsed or are
restrictively endorsed.

Coverage  under this INSURING  CLAUSE begins  immediately on the receipt of such
Property by the natural person or Transportation Company and ends immediately on
delivery  to the  premises  of the  addressee  or to any  representative  of the
addressee located anywhere.

Forgery Or Alteration

4.       Loss resulting directly from:

a.  Forgery on, or  fraudulent  material  alteration  of, any bills of exchange,
checks,  drafts,  acceptances,  certificates of deposits,  promissory notes, due
bills,  money orders,  orders upon public treasuries,  letters of credit,  other
written promises, orders or directions to pay sums certain in money, or receipts
for the withdrawal of Property, or

b.  transferring,   paying  or  delivering  any  funds  or  other  Property,  or
establishing  any  credit  or  giving  any  value  in  reliance  on any  written
instructions,  advices or  applications  directed to the ASSURED  authorizing or
acknowledging  the  transfer,  payment,  delivery  or  receipt of funds or other
Property,  which instructions,  advices or applications  fraudulently purport to
bear the handwritten signature of any customer of the ASSURED, or shareholder or
subscriber to shares of an Investment Company,  or of any financial  institution
or  Employee  but which  instructions,  advices or  applications  either  bear a
Forgery or have been fraudulently  materially  altered without the knowledge and
consent of such  customer,  shareholder,  subscriber,  financial  institution or
Employee;  excluding, however, under this INSURING CLAUSE any loss covered under
INSURING CLAUSE 5. of this Bond,  whether or not coverage for INSURING CLAUSE 5.
is provided for in the DECLARATIONS of this Bond.

     For  the  purpose  of  this  INSURING  CLAUSE,  a  mechanically  reproduced
facsimile signature is treated the same as a handwritten signature.

5. Loss resulting  directly from the ASSURED having,  in good faith,  and in the
ordinary course of business, for its own account or the account of others in any
capacity:

a. acquired,  accepted or received,  accepted or received, sold or delivered, or

(2) have been lost or stolen, or

(3) be Counterfeit, or

b.   guaranteed  in  writing  or  witnessed  any  signatures  on  any  transfer,

instruments.

     Actual physical  possession,  and continued  actual physical  possession if
taken as collateral, of such Securities,  documents or other written instruments
by an Employee,  Custodian,  or a Federal or State chartered deposit institution
of the ASSURED is a condition  precedent  to the ASSURED  having  relied on such
items.  Release or return of such collateral is an acknowledgment by the ASSURED
that it no longer relies on such collateral.

     For  the  purpose  of  this  INSURING  CLAUSE,  a  mechanically  reproduced
facsimile signature is treated the same as a handwritten signature.

Counterfeit Money

6. Loss resulting  directly from the receipt by the ASSURED in good faith of any
Counterfeit money.

Threats To Person

7. Loss resulting directly from surrender of Property away from an office of the
ASSURED as a result of a threat communicated to the ASSURED to do bodily harm to
an Employee as defined in Section  1.e.  (1), (2) and (5), a Relative or invitee
of such Employee,  or a resident of the household of such  Employee,  who is, or
allegedly is, being held captive provided,  however, that prior to the surrender
of such Property:

an officer of the ASSURED who is not involved in such threat, and

b. the ASSURED  has made a  reasonable  effort to notify the  Federal  Bureau of
Investigation and local law enforcement authorities concerning such threat.

     It is agreed that for purposes of this INSURING CLAUSE, any Employee of the
ASSURED,  as set  forth in the  preceding  paragraph,  shall be  deemed to be an
ASSURED hereunder,  but only with respect to the surrender of money,  securities
and other  tangible  personal  property  in which such  Employee  has a legal or
equitable interest.

Computer System

8. Loss resulting directly from fraudulent:

a. entries of data into, or

b. changes of data elements or programs within,

a Computer System, provided the fraudulent entry or change causes:

(1) funds or other property to be transferred, paid or delivered,

(2) an account of the ASSURED or of its customer to be added,  deleted,  debited
or credited, or

(3) an unauthorized account or a fictitious account to be debited or credited.

Voice Initiated Funds Transfer Instruction

9. Loss  resulting  directly from Voice  Initiated  Funds  Transfer  Instruction
directed to the ASSURED  authorizing  the transfer of  dividends  or  redemption
proceeds of Investment Company shares from a Customer's  account,  provided such
Voice Initiated Funds Transfer Instruction was:

any other person.

Initiated  Funds  Transfer  Instructions  must  be  received  and  processed  in
accordance with the Designated  Procedures outlined in the APPLICATION furnished
to the COMPANY.

Uncollectible Items of Deposit

10. Loss  resulting  directly from the ASSURED  having  credited an account of a
customer,  shareholder  or subscriber on the faith of any Items of Deposit which
prove to be uncollectible, provided that the crediting of such account causes:

a. redemptions or withdrawals to be permitted,

b. shares to be issued, or

c. dividends to be paid,

from an account of an Investment Company.

     In order for coverage to apply under this INSURING CLAUSE, the ASSURED must
hold Items of Deposit for the minimum  number of days stated in the  APPLICATION
before  permitting any redemptions or withdrawals,  issuing any shares or paying
any dividends with respect to such Items of Deposit.

     Items of  Deposit  shall not be deemed  uncollectible  until the  ASSURED'S
standard collection procedures have failed.

Audit Expense

11.  Expense  incurred  by the  ASSURED  for that  part of the cost of audits or
examinations   required   by   any   governmental    regulatory   authority   or
self-regulatory organization to be conducted by such authority,  organization or
their  appointee by reason of the discovery of loss sustained by the ASSURED and
covered by this Bond.

E. The  COMPANY  will  indemnify  the  ASSURED  for court  costs and  reasonable
attorneys'  fees  incurred  and paid by the ASSURED in  defense,  whether or not

Employee would be found guilty of Larceny or  Embezzlement if such Employee were
prosecuted.

     The ASSURED  shall  promptly give notice to the COMPANY of any such suit or
legal  proceeding  and at the request of the COMPANY shall furnish copies of all
pleadings  and  pertinent  papers to the  COMPANY.  The COMPANY may, at its sole

selected by the COMPANY.  The ASSURED shall provide all  reasonable  information
and assistance as required by the COMPANY for such defense.

     If the COMPANY  declines to defend the ASSURED,  no settlement  without the
prior  written  consent of the COMPANY nor  judgment  against the ASSURED  shall
determine the existence, extent or amount of coverage under this Bond.

     If the amount  demanded in any such suit or legal  proceeding is within the
DEDUCTIBLE  AMOUNT,  if any, the COMPANY shall have no liability for court costs
and  attorney's  fees  incurred in  defending  all or part of such suit or legal
proceeding.

     If the amount demanded in any such suit or legal proceeding is in excess of
the LIMIT OF LIABILITY  stated in ITEM 2. of the DECLARATIONS for the applicable
INSURING  CLAUSE,  the COMPANY'S  liability for court costs and attorney's  fees
incurred in defending all or part of such suit or legal  proceedings  is limited
to the  proportion  of such court costs and  attorney's  fees  incurred that the
LIMIT OF  LIABILITY  stated in ITEM 2. of the  DECLARATIONS  for the  applicable
INSURING  CLAUSE bears to the total of the amount demanded in such suit or legal
proceeding.

     If the amount demanded is any such suit or legal proceeding is in excess of
the DEDUCTIBLE  AMOUNT, if any, but within the LIMIT OF LIABILITY stated in ITEM
2. of the  DECLARATIONS  for  the  applicable  INSURING  CLAUSE,  the  COMPANY'S

of such suit or legal  proceedings  shall be limited to the  proportion  of such
court costs or  attorney's  fees that the amount  demanded that would be payable
under this Bond after application of the DEDUCTIBLE  AMOUNT,  bears to the total
amount demanded.

at the time the loss under the COMPANY'S indemnity is sustained.

     The  COMPANY is not  required to issue its  indemnity  for any portion of a
loss of securities which is not covered by this Bond;  however,  the COMPANY may
do so as a courtesy to the ASSURED and at its sole discretion.

DISCLOSURE NOTICE OF
TERRORISM INSURANCE COVERAGE
(for policies with no terrorism exclusion or sublimit)

You are hereby  notified  that,  under the Terrorism  Risk Insurance Act of 2002
(the "Act")  effective  November  26, 2002,  this policy makes  available to you
insurance  for losses  arising out of certain acts of  international  terrorism.
Terrorism is defined as any act certified by the  Secretary of the Treasury,  in
concurrence  with the Secretary of State and the Attorney  General of the United
States,  to be an act of  terrorism;  to be a  violent  act  or an act  that  is
dangerous to human life, property or infrastructure;  to have resulted in damage
within the United  States,  or outside  the United  States in the case of an air
carrier or vessel or the premises of a United States  Mission;  and to have been
committed by an individual or individuals acting on behalf of any foreign person
or foreign interest,  as part of an effort to coerce the civilian  population of
the United States or to influence the policy or affect the conduct of the United
States Government by coercion.

You should know that the insurance  provided by your policy for losses caused by
acts of terrorism is partially reimbursed by the United States under the formula
set forth in the Act. Under this formula,  the United States pays 90% of covered
terrorism losses that exceed the statutorily  established  deductible to be paid
by the insurance  company  providing the coverage.  The portion of your policy's
annual premium that is  attributable to insurance for such acts of terrorism is:
