    Notice is hereby given, pursuant to the provisions of the

Investment Company Act raised by the use of derivatives by investment 
companies regulated under that Act.

issuers with a conditional exclusion from the definition of investment 
company. The second release is a concept release to solicit public 
comment on interpretive issues related to the status under the
