A LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present this semiannual report for Dreyfus Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund, Inc., covering the six-month period from June 1, 2013, through November 30, 2013. For information about how the fund performed during the reporting period, as well as general market perspectives, we provide a Discussion of Fund Performance on the pages that follow.

The reporting period produced a relatively challenging environment for most fixed-income securities, as a gradually strengthening U.S. economy and expectations of a more moderately stimulative monetary policy drove longer term interest rates higher and bond prices lower. Municipal bonds proved particularly sensitive to these developments, as the negative effects of rising rates were exacerbated by selling pressure among investors seeking safer havens.

We currently expect U.S. economic conditions to continue to improve in 2014, with accelerating growth and credit conditions supported by the fading drags of tighter federal fiscal policies and downsizing on the state and local levels. Moreover, inflation is likely to remain muted, so monetary policy can remain stimulative. Globally, we anticipate stronger growth in developed countries due to past and continuing monetary ease, while emerging markets seem poised for more moderate economic expansion. For more information on how these observations may affect your investments, we encourage you to speak with your financial advisor.

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

J. Charles Cardona
President

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

For the period of June 1, 2013, through November 30, 2013, as provided by Steven Harvey, Portfolio Manager

Fund and Market Performance Overview

For the six-month period ended November 30, 2013, Dreyfus Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund achieved a total return of –1.73%.¹ The Barclays 7-Year Municipal Bond Index (the “Index”), the fund’s benchmark, achieved a total return of –0.76% for the same period.²

Selling pressure stemming from investors’ concerns about actual and anticipated interest rate changes sent municipal bond prices lower during the reporting period. The fund lagged its benchmark, mainly due to an emphasis on the longer end of the intermediate-term maturity range.

The Fund’s Investment Approach

The fund seeks the maximum amount of current income exempt from federal income tax as is consistent with the preservation of capital. To pursue its goal, the fund normally invests substantially all of its assets in municipal bonds that provide income exempt from federal personal income tax.

The fund invests at least 80% of its assets in municipal bonds rated A or higher, or the unrated equivalent as determined by Dreyfus.The fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in municipal bonds rated below A, including bonds rated below investment grade (“high yield” or “junk” bonds) or the unrated equivalent as determined by Dreyfus.The dollar-weighted average maturity of the fund’s portfolio ranges between three and 10 years.

We focus on identifying undervalued sectors and securities, and we minimize the use of interest rate forecasting. We select municipal bonds by using fundamental credit analysis to estimate the relative value and attractiveness of various sectors and securities and to exploit pricing inefficiencies in the municipal bond market. We actively trade among various sectors, such as pre-refunded, general obligation, and revenue, based on their apparent relative values.

The Fund 3

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

Selling Pressure Sparked Declines Among Municipal Bonds

Municipal bonds during the reporting period continued to struggle with sluggish investor demand and rising long-term interest rates in a recovering U.S. economy. Market volatility spiked just days before the start of the reporting period, when remarks by Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) Chairman Ben Bernanke were widely interpreted as a signal that the central bank would back away from its ongoing quantitative easing program sooner than expected. This development sent longer term interest rates sharply higher in June, and bond prices declined commensurately.

In July, a bankruptcy filing by the city of Detroit intensified selling pressure in the municipal bond market, and in September, municipal bonds issued by Puerto Rico contributed to market weakness after media reports detailed the U.S. territory’s fiscal and economic problems.While municipal bonds generally rallied over the final weeks of September and during October when the Fed refrained from tapering its quantitative easing program, November saw another bout of market weakness, and the Index ended the reporting period in negative territory.As a result of these factors, yield differences widened substantially along the market’s maturity spectrum.

Despite the fiscal problems facing Detroit and Puerto Rico, credit conditions continued to improve for most states and municipalities. In addition, some state and local governments have made the difficult decisions required to balance their budgets. For example, California received voter approval in 2012 to raise taxes on high earners, helping to address longstanding fiscal problems and prompting upgrades to the state’s credit ratings in 2013.

Longer Maturity Bonds Dampened Fund Performance

We had responded to market declines earlier in 2013 by selling some of the fund’s higher grade holdings with five-year maturities and redeploying the proceeds into longer-term, higher yielding revenue bonds that we regarded as more attractively valued. However, bonds with these characteristics generally weighed on relative results when long-term interest rates continued to climb in the wake of the Fed’s unexpectedly hawkish comments. The fund’s holdings of essential purpose revenue bonds backed by water and sewer utilities proved particularly susceptible to market-wide selling pressure despite no material change in issuers’ underlying credit

fundamentals. Also, holdings in Puerto Rico revenue and general obligation bonds detracted from relative returns on heightened selling pressures.

The fund achieved better results in other areas. From a security selection standpoint, revenue bonds backed by airports fared relatively well.The fund also benefited from increased exposure to investment-grade securities backed by revenues from the states’ settlement of litigation with U.S. tobacco companies.

Finding Attractive Values in a Dislocated Market

Although market volatility may persist over the near term, we believe that investors will return their focus to market and issuer fundamentals after the Fed begins to taper its quantitative easing program. Over the longer term, improved credit conditions and restored demand from investors seeking relief from higher taxes may help lift municipal bond valuations toward historical norms.Therefore, we have continued to emphasize longer-dated revenue bonds with credit ratings in the middle of the investment-grade spectrum, and we have set the fund’s average duration in a position that is roughly in line with market averages. In our view, these strategies position the fund appropriately for any upcoming market rebounds.

December 16, 2013

Bond funds are subject generally to interest rate, credit, liquidity and market risks, to varying degrees, all of which are
more fully described in the fund’s prospectus. Generally, all other factors being equal, bond prices are inversely related
to interest-rate changes, and rate increases can cause price declines.
High yield bonds involve increased credit and liquidity risks compared with investment grade bonds and are considered
speculative in terms of the issuer’s ability to pay interest and repay principal on a timely basis.
The use of derivatives involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly
in the underlying assets. Derivatives can be highly volatile, illiquid and difficult to value, and there is the risk that
changes in the value of a derivate held by the fund will not correlate with the underlying instruments or the fund’s
other instruments.

1 Total return includes reinvestment of dividends and any capital gains paid. Past performance is no guarantee of future
results. Share price, yield and investment return fluctuate such that upon redemption, fund shares may be worth more
or less than their original cost. Income may be subject to state and local taxes, and some income may be subject to the
federal alternative minimum tax (AMT) for certain investors. Capital gains, if any, are fully taxable.
2 SOURCE: LIPPER INC. — Reflects reinvestment of dividends and, where applicable, capital gain distributions.
The Barclays 7-Year Municipal Bond Index is an unmanaged total return performance benchmark for the
investment-grade, geographically unrestricted 7-year tax-exempt bond market, consisting of municipal bonds with
maturities of 6-8 years. Index returns do not reflect fees and expenses associated with operating a mutual fund.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:

Dreyfus Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund, Inc. (the “fund”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as a diversified open-end management investment company. The fund’s investment objective is to seek the maximum amount of current income exempt from federal income tax as is consistent with the preservation of capital.The Dreyfus Corporation (the “Manager” or “Dreyfus”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (“BNY Mellon”), serves as the fund’s investment adviser. MBSC Securities Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, is the distributor of the fund’s shares, which are sold to the public without a sales charge.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification is the exclusive reference of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions.Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown.The fund does not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.

(a) Portfolio valuation: The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price). GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs of valuation techniques used to

The Fund 31

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

measure fair value. This hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

Additionally, GAAP provides guidance on determining whether the volume and activity in a market has decreased significantly and whether such a decrease in activity results in transactions that are not orderly. GAAP requires enhanced disclosures around valuation inputs and techniques used during annual and interim periods.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund’s investments relating to fair value measurements.These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.

Level 2—other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. Valuation techniques used to value the fund’s investments are as follows:

Investments in securities are valued each business day by an independent pricing service (the “Service”) approved by the fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). Investments for which quoted bid prices are readily available and are representative of the bid side of the market in the judgment of the Service are valued at the mean between the quoted bid prices (as obtained by the Service from dealers in such securities) and asked prices (as calculated by the Service based upon its evaluation of the market for such securities). Other investments (which constitute a majority of the portfolio securities) are carried at fair value as deter-

32

mined by the Service, based on methods which include consideration of the following: yields or prices of municipal securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions.All of the preceding securities are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Service’s procedures are reviewed by Dreyfus under the general supervision of the Board.

When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board. Certain factors may be considered when fair valuing investments such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers.These securities are either categorized within Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy depending on the relevant inputs used.

For restricted securities where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of November 30, 2013 in valuing the fund’s investments:

		Level 2—Other	Level 3—
	Level 1—	Significant	Significant
	Unadjusted	Observable	Unobservable
	Quoted Prices	Inputs	Inputs	Total
Assets ($)

† See Statement of Investments for additional detailed categorizations.

The Fund 33

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

At November 30, 2013, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following is a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for which significant unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value:

	Municipal Bonds ($)

(b) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Interest income, adjusted for accretion of discount and amortization of premium on investments, is earned from settlement date and recognized on the accrual basis. Securities purchased or sold on a when issued or delayed delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date.

(c) Dividends to shareholders: It is the policy of the fund to declare dividends daily from investment income-net. Such dividends are paid monthly. Dividends from net realized capital gains, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but the fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).To the extent that net realized capital gains can be offset by capital loss carryovers, it is the policy of the fund not to distribute such gains. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.

34

(d) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, which can distribute tax-exempt dividends, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of income and net realized capital gain sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.

As of and during the period ended November 30, 2013, the fund did not have any liabilities for any uncertain tax positions.The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended November 30, 2013, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

Each tax year in the three-year period ended May 31, 2013 remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal year ended May 31, 2013 was as follows: tax-exempt income $25,311,916, ordinary income $781,667 and long-term capital gains $3,801,736. The tax character of current year distributions will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.

NOTE 2—Bank Lines of Credit:

The fund participates with other Dreyfus-managed funds in a $265 million unsecured credit facility led by Citibank, N.A. and a $300 million unsecured credit facility provided by The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus (each, a “Facility”), each to be utilized primarily for temporary or emergency purposes, including the financing of redemptions. Prior to October 9, 2013, the unsecured credit facility with Citibank, N.A. was $210 million. In connection therewith, the fund has agreed to pay its pro rata portion of commitment fees for each Facility. Interest is charged to the fund based

The Fund 35

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

on rates determined pursuant to the terms of the respective Facility at the time of borrowing. During the period ended November 30, 2013, the fund did not borrow under the Facilities.

NOTE 3—Management Fee and Other Transactions With Affiliates:

(a) Pursuant to a management agreement with the Manager, the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .60% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets and is payable monthly.

(b) Under the Shareholder Services Plan, the fund reimburses the Distributor an amount not to exceed an annual rate of .25% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets for certain allocated expenses of providing personal services and/or maintaining shareholder accounts. The services provided may include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquires regarding the fund and providing reports and other information, and services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts. During the period ended November 30, 2013, the fund was charged $190,000 pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan.

The fund has arrangements with the transfer agent and the custodian whereby the fund may receive earnings credits when positive cash balances are maintained, which are used to offset transfer agency and custody fees. For financial reporting purposes, the fund includes net earnings credits as an expense offset in the Statement of Operations.

The fund compensates DreyfusTransfer, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, under a transfer agency agreement for providing transfer agency and cash management services for the fund. The majority of transfer agency fees are comprised of amounts paid on a per account basis, while cash management fees are related to fund subscriptions and redemptions. During the period ended November 30, 2013, the fund was charged $115,574 for transfer agency services and $4,920 for cash management services.These fees are included in Shareholder servicing costs in the Statement of Operations. Cash management fees were partially offset by earnings credits of $287.

36

The fund compensates The Bank of NewYork Mellon under a custody agreement for providing custodial services for the fund.These fees are determined based on net assets, geographic region and transaction activity. During the period ended November 30, 2013, the fund was charged $33,915 pursuant to the custody agreement.

The fund compensated The Bank of NewYork Mellon for performing certain cash management services related to fund subscriptions and redemptions, including shareholder redemption draft processing, under a cash management agreement that was in effect until September 30, 2013 and, beginning October 1, 2013, compensates The Bank of New York Mellon for processing shareholder redemption drafts under a shareholder draft processing agreement. During the period ended November 30, 2013, the fund was charged $2,416 pursuant to the agreements, which is included in Shareholder servicing costs in the Statement of Operations.

During the period ended November 30, 2013, the fund was charged $4,571 for services performed by the Chief Compliance Officer and his staff.

The components of “Due to The Dreyfus Corporation and affiliates” in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities consist of: management fees $404,766, Shareholder Services Plan fees $33,000, custodian fees $28,350, Chief Compliance Officer fees $3,833 and transfer agency fees $58,480.

(c) Each Board member also serves as a Board member of other funds within the Dreyfus complex. Annual retainer fees and attendance fees are allocated to each fund based on net assets.

NOTE 4—Securities Transactions:

The aggregate amount of purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term securities, during the period ended November 30, 2013, amounted to $143,906,986 and $249,047,769, respectively.

The Fund 37

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

At November 30, 2013, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments was $21,595,789, consisting of $34,887,220 gross unrealized appreciation and $13,291,431 gross unrealized depreciation.

At November 30, 2013, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see the Statement of Investments).

38

INFORMATION ABOUT THE RENEWAL OF THE
FUND’S MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited)

At a meeting of the fund’s Board of Directors held on November 4-5, 2013, the Board considered the renewal of the fund’s Management Agreement pursuant to which Dreyfus provides the fund with investment advisory and administrative services (the “Agreement”).The Board members, none of whom are “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the fund, were assisted in their review by independent legal counsel and met with counsel in executive session separate from Dreyfus representatives. In considering the renewal of the Agreement, the Board considered all factors that it believed to be relevant, including those discussed below.The Board did not identify any one factor as dispositive, and each Board member may have attributed different weights to the factors considered.

Analysis of Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services Provided to the Fund. The Board considered information provided to them at the meeting and in previous presentations from Dreyfus representatives regarding the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to funds in the Dreyfus fund complex. Dreyfus provided the number of open accounts in the fund, the fund’s asset size and the allocation of fund assets among distribution channels. Dreyfus also had previously provided information regarding the diverse intermediary relationships and distribution channels of funds in the Dreyfus fund complex (such as retail direct or intermediary, in which intermediaries typically are paid by the fund and/or Dreyfus) and Dreyfus’ corresponding need for broad, deep, and diverse resources to be able to provide ongoing shareholder services to each intermediary or distribution channel, as applicable to the fund.

The Board also considered research support available to, and portfolio management capabilities of, the fund’s portfolio management personnel and that Dreyfus also provides oversight of day-to-day fund operations, including fund accounting and administration and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements.

The Fund 39

INFORMATION ABOUT THE RENEWAL OF THE FUND’S
MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (continued)

Comparative Analysis of the Fund’s Performance and Management Fee and Expense Ratio. The Board reviewed reports prepared by Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent provider of investment company data, which included information comparing (1) the fund’s performance with the performance of a group of comparable funds (the “Performance Group”) and with a broader group of funds (the “Performance Universe”), all for various periods ended September 30, 2013, and (2) the fund’s actual and contractual management fees and total expenses with those of a group of comparable funds (the “Expense Group”) and with a broader group of funds (the “Expense Universe”), the information for which was derived in part from fund financial statements available to Lipper as of the date of its analysis. Dreyfus previously had furnished the Board with a description of the methodology Lipper used to select the Performance Group and Performance Universe and the Expense Group and Expense Universe.

Dreyfus representatives stated that the usefulness of performance comparisons may be affected by a number of factors, including different investment limitations that may be applicable to the fund and comparison funds. The Board discussed the results of the comparisons and noted that the fund’s total return performance was below the Performance Group median and above the Performance Universe median for all periods.The Board also noted the proximity of the fund’s total return and yield to the medians of the Performance Group during certain periods of underperformance.The Board also noted the fund’s yield performance was above the Performance Group median for eight of the ten one-year periods ended September 30th and above the Performance Universe median for all ten one-year periods. Dreyfus also provided a comparison of the fund’s calendar year total returns to the returns of the fund’s Lipper category average and noted that the fund’s performance was above the category average in six of the ten years.

The Board received a presentation from the fund’s portfolio managers, who described the fundamental and technical conditions at work in the municipal bond market, the level of volatility in the market, and the

40

managers’ ongoing focus on mitigating downside risk in the fund’s port-folio.The portfolio managers discussed the strategy implemented for the fund in 2009, quantitative risk management tools applied in overseeing the fund and the fund’s current structure to defend against volatility and otherwise defensively position the fund’s credit posture. The portfolio managers also explained the fund’s performance relative to its duration and credit structure and the degree to which it impacts maximizing yield performance.The portfolio managers also discussed the extent to which relative total return performance may have been negatively impacted by owning bonds issued by authorities located in Puerto Rico.

The Board also reviewed the range of actual and contractual management fees and total expenses of the Expense Group and Expense Universe funds and discussed the results of the comparisons.The Board noted that the fund’s contractual management fee was above the Expense Group median (highest in the Expense Group), the fund’s actual management fee was above the Expense Group and Expense Universe medians (highest in the Expense Group and Expense Universe) and the fund’s total expenses were above the Expense Group and Expense Universe medians (in the fourth quartile).

Dreyfus representatives reviewed with the Board the management or investment advisory fees (1) paid by funds advised or administered by Dreyfus that are in the same Lipper category as the fund and (2) paid to Dreyfus or the Dreyfus-affiliated primary employer of the fund’s primary portfolio manager(s) for advising any separate accounts and/or other types of client portfolios that are considered to have similar investment strategies and policies as the fund (the “Similar Clients”), and explained the nature of the Similar Clients.They discussed differences in fees paid and the relationship of the fees paid in light of any differences in the services provided and other relevant factors. The Board considered the relevance of the fee information provided for the Similar Clients to evaluate the appropriateness and reasonableness of the fund’s management fee.

The Fund 41

INFORMATION ABOUT THE RENEWAL OF THE FUND’S
MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (continued)

Analysis of Profitability and Economies of Scale. Dreyfus representatives reviewed the expenses allocated and profit received by Dreyfus and the resulting profitability percentage for managing the fund and the aggregate profitability percentage to Dreyfus of managing the funds in the Dreyfus fund complex, and the method used to determine the expenses and profit. The Board concluded that the profitability results were not unreasonable, given the services rendered and service levels provided by Dreyfus. The Board also had been provided with information prepared by an independent consulting firm regarding Dreyfus’ approach to allocating costs to, and determining the profitability of, individual funds and the entire Dreyfus fund complex.The consulting firm also had analyzed where any economies of scale might emerge in connection with the management of a fund.

The Board considered on the advice of its counsel the profitability analysis (1) as part of its evaluation of whether the fees under the Agreement bear a reasonable relationship to the mix of services provided by Dreyfus, including the nature, extent, and quality of such services, and (2) in light of the relevant circumstances for the fund and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized if the fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of fund shareholders. Dreyfus representatives noted that a discussion of economies of scale is predicated on a fund having achieved a substantial size with increasing assets and that, if a fund’s assets had been stable or decreasing, the possibility that Dreyfus may have realized any economies of scale would be less. Dreyfus representatives also noted that, as a result of shared and allocated costs among funds in the Dreyfus fund complex, the extent of economies of scale could depend substantially on the level of assets in the complex as a whole, so that increases and decreases in complex-wide assets can affect potential economies of scale in a manner that is disproportionate to, or even in the opposite direction from, changes in the fund’s asset level. The

42

Board also considered potential benefits to Dreyfus from acting as investment adviser and noted that there were no soft dollar arrangements in effect for trading the fund’s investments.

At the conclusion of these discussions, the Board agreed that it had been furnished with sufficient information to make an informed business decision with respect to the renewal of the Agreement. Based on the discussions and considerations as described above, the Board concluded and determined as follows.

• The Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of the ser- vices provided by Dreyfus are adequate and appropriate.

• The Board generally was satisfied with the fund’s overall performance, in light of the considerations described above.

• The Board concluded that the fee paid to Dreyfus was reasonable in light of the considerations described above.

• The Board determined that the economies of scale which may accrue to Dreyfus and its affiliates in connection with the management of the fund had been adequately considered by Dreyfus in connection with the fee rate charged to the fund pursuant to the Agreement and that, to the extent in the future it were determined that material economies of scale had not been shared with the fund, the Board would seek to have those economies of scale shared with the fund.

In evaluating the Agreement, the Board considered these conclusions and determinations and also relied on its previous knowledge, gained through meetings and other interactions with Dreyfus and its affiliates, of the fund and the services provided to the fund by Dreyfus. The Board also relied on information received on a routine and regular basis throughout the year relating to the operations of the fund and the investment management and other services provided under the Agreement, including information on the investment performance of

The Fund 43

INFORMATION ABOUT THE RENEWAL OF THE FUND’S
MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (continued)

the fund in comparison to similar mutual funds and benchmark performance indices; general market outlook as applicable to the fund; and compliance reports. In addition, the Board’s consideration of the contractual fee arrangements for this fund had the benefit of a number of years of reviews of prior or similar agreements during which lengthy discussions took place between the Board and Dreyfus representatives. Certain aspects of the arrangements may receive greater scrutiny in some years than in others, and the Board’s conclusions may be based, in part, on their consideration of the same or similar arrangements in prior years.The Board determined that renewal of the Agreement was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.
