A LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present this semiannual report for Dreyfus Midcap Index Fund, Inc., covering the six-month period from November 1, 2015 through April 30, 2016. 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.

A choppy U.S. economic recovery remained intact over the reporting period. Steady job growth, declining unemployment claims, improved consumer confidence, and higher housing prices supported an economic expansion that so far has lasted nearly seven years. These factors, along with low inflation, prompted the Federal Reserve Board in December 2015 to raise short-term interest rates for the first time in nearly a decade.

On the other hand, the global economy continued to stagnate despite historically aggressive monetary policies, including negative short-term interest rates in Europe and Japan. Global growth has been hampered by weak demand, volatile commodity prices, the lingering effects of various financial crises, unfavorable demographic trends, and low productivity growth. These developments proved especially challenging for financial markets in early 2016, but stocks and riskier sectors of the bond market later rallied strongly to post positive total returns, on average, for the reporting period overall.

While we are encouraged by the recent resilience of the financial markets, we expect volatility to persist over the foreseeable future until global economic uncertainty abates. In addition, wide differences in underlying fundamental and technical influences across various asset classes, economic sectors, and regional markets suggest that selectivity may be an important determinant of investment success over the months ahead. We encourage you to discuss the implications of our observations with your financial advisor.

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

Sincerely,

J. Charles Cardona

President

The Dreyfus Corporation

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

For the period of November 1, 2015, through April 30, 2016, as provided by Thomas J. Durante, CFA, Karen Q. Wong, CFA, and Richard A. Brown, CFA, Portfolio Managers

Market and Fund Performance Overview

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2016, Dreyfus Midcap Index Fund produced a total return of 1.82%.¹ In comparison, the Standard & Poor’s MidCap 400^® Index (“S&P 400 Index”), the fund’s benchmark, produced a total return of 2.04% for the same period.^2,3

Midcap stocks posted mildly positive total returns, on average, over the reporting period, masking heightened market volatility stemming from various global and domestic economic developments. The difference in returns between the fund and the S&P 400 Index was primarily the result of transaction costs and operating expenses that are not reflected in the S&P 400 Index’s results.

The Fund’s Investment Approach

The fund seeks to match the total return of the S&P 400 Index by generally investing in all 400 stocks in the S&P 400 Index, in proportion to their respective weightings. The fund may also use stock index futures as a substitute for the sale or purchase of stocks. The S&P 400 Index is composed of 400 stocks of midsized domestic companies across 10 economic sectors. Each stock is weighted by its market capitalization; that is, larger companies have greater representation in the S&P 400 Index than smaller ones.

The fund employed futures contracts during the reporting period in its efforts to replicate the returns of the S&P 400 Index.

Mildly Positive Returns Masked Heightened Volatility

Midcap stock prices generally proved volatile over the last two months of 2015, losing a degree of value when investor sentiment vacillated between concerns about the global economy and optimism regarding job growth and other positive developments in the United States. In January 2016, disappointing economic data from China sparked renewed weakness in commodity prices, and investors again grew concerned about the potential impact of China’s economic troubles on the United States. Moreover, U.S. investors worried that a December 2015 increase in short-term interest rates from the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) might weigh on the domestic economic recovery, and Japan surprised investors by adopting negative short-term interest rates for the first time. Consequently, U.S. stocks declined particularly sharply in January.

The market’s slide continued into February, but strong U.S. economic data and better-than-expected corporate earnings helped trigger a rebound later in the month. The rally continued through March and, to a lesser extent, April after the Fed indicated that it would proceed cautiously in implementing additional 2016 rate hikes, commodity prices began to rebound, and central banks in China and Europe adopted additional monetary easing programs. Investors responded to these developments with renewed confidence, enabling the S&P 400 Index to end the reporting period with a modestly positive total return.

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

Divergent Returns across Market Sectors

The various sectors that comprise the S&P 400 Index produced disparate returns over the reporting period. The materials sector fared best, experiencing a sharp rebound from earlier weakness when fears of a more severe economic slowdown in China moderated and commodity prices began to recover. In particular, U.S. steelmakers benefited from higher prices, and chemicals producers advanced on the strength of a growing domestic housing market and greater mergers-and-acquisitions activity.

The utilities sector benefited during the reporting period’s low interest-rate environment from investors’ preferences for traditionally defensive companies with competitive dividend yields, stable earnings, and strong cash flows. The industrials sector also outperformed market averages due to the impact of intensifying mergers-and-acquisitions activity. In addition, rising demand for homecare products, such as landscaping equipment, benefited certain companies with little exposure to troubled overseas markets. Providers of commercial services and supplies also boosted returns in the industrials sector.

Detractors from the S&P 400 Index’s results over the reporting period were led by the information technology sector, where slowing demand from cable television companies undermined revenues for communications equipment providers as more consumers switched to Internet-based entertainment and information providers. Moreover, a number of software developers and semiconductor manufacturers saw their stocks decline when investors favored more defensive market segments. In the energy sector, low oil-and-gas prices resulted in falling demand for small-cap energy services providers, such as independently owned offshore drillers, and demand had not yet returned to previous levels when commodity prices later began to rebound.

Replicating the Performance of the S&P 400 Index

Although we do not actively manage the fund’s investments in response to macroeconomic trends, it is worth noting that the U.S. economic recovery appears to remain on track, commodity prices have stabilized, and aggressively accommodative monetary policies remain at work in international markets. As always, we have continued to monitor the factors considered by the fund’s investment model in light of current market conditions.

May 16, 2016

Equity funds are subject generally to market, market sector, market liquidity, issuer, and investment style risks, among other factors, to varying degrees, all of which are more fully described in the fund’s prospectus.

Stocks of midcap companies often experience sharper price fluctuations than stocks of large-cap companies.

¹ Total return includes reinvestment of dividends and any capital gains paid. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Share price and investment return fluctuate such that upon redemption, fund shares may be worth more or less than their original cost.

² SOURCE: Lipper Inc. – Reflects reinvestment of dividends and, where applicable, capital gain distributions. The Standard & Poor’s MidCap 400 Index is a widely accepted, unmanaged total return index measuring the performance of the midsized company segment of the U.S. market. Investors cannot invest directly in any index.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:

Dreyfus Midcap Index Fund, Inc. (the “fund”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as a non-diversified open-end management investment company. The fund’s investment objective is to seek to match the performance of the Standard & Poor’s^® MidCap 400 Index. 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 Dreyfus, 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 (“ASC”) 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 fundenters 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 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.

24

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 at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sales price. For open short positions, asked prices are used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. All of the preceding securities are generally categorized within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices. U.S. Treasury Bills are valued at the mean price between quoted bid prices and asked prices by an independent pricing service (the “Service”) approved by the fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). These securities are generally categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

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

Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant American

25

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

Depository Receipts and financial futures. Utilizing these techniques may result in transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

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 (for example, a foreign exchange or market), 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 generally categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Financial futures, which are traded on an exchange, are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange on which such securities are primarily traded or at the last sales price on the national securities market on each business day and are generally categorized within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of April 30, 2016in valuing the fund’s investments:

^†See Statement of Investments for additional detailed categorizations.

^††Amount shown represents unrealized appreciation at period end.

At April 30, 2016, there were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy.

(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. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income, including, where applicable, accretion of discount and amortization of premium on investments, is recognized on the accrual basis.

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund’s policy that, at origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by Dreyfus, or U.S. Government and Agency securities. The fund is entitled to receive all dividends, interest and distributions on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the lending transaction. Should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner, The Bank of New York Mellon is required to replace the securities for the benefit of the fund or credit the fund with the market value of the unreturned securities and is subrogated to the fund’s rights against the

27

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

borrower and the collateral. Additionally, the contractual maturity of security lending transactions are on an overnight and continuous basis. During the period ended April 30, 2016, The Bank of New York Mellon earned $178,955 from lending portfolio securities, pursuant to the securities lending agreement.

(c) Affiliated issuers: Investments in other investment companies advised by Dreyfus are defined as “affiliated” under the Act. Investments in affiliated investment companies during the period ended April 30, 2016 were as follows:

Affiliated Investment Company	Value 10/31/2015 ($)	Purchases ($)	Sales ($)	Value 4/30/2016 ($)	Net Assets (%)
Dreyfus Institutional Preferred Plus Money Market Fund	38,685,785	358,952,354	324,655,765	72,982,374	2.3
Dreyfus Institutional Cash Advantage Fund	95,707,092	440,282,017	353,060,235	182,928,874	5.8
Total	134,392,877	799,234,371	677,716,000	255,911,248	8.1

(d) Dividends to shareholders: Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from investment income-net and 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.

(e) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, if such qualification is in the best interests of its shareholders, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.

As of and during the period ended April 30, 2016, 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 April 30, 2016, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

28

Each tax year in the three-year period ended October 31, 2015 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 October 31, 2015 was as follows: ordinary income $41,972,772 and long-term capital gains $187,330,666. 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 $555 million unsecured credit facility led by Citibank, N.A. and a $300 million unsecured credit facility provided by The Bank of New York Mellon (each, a “Facility”), each to be utilized primarily for temporary or emergency purposes, including the financing of redemptions. Prior to January 11, 2016, the unsecured credit facility with Citibank, N.A. was $480 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 on rates determined pursuant to the terms of the respective Facility at the time of borrowing.

The average amount of borrowings outstanding under the Facilities during the period ended April 30, 2016 was approximately $755,500 with a related weighted average annualized interest rate of 1.34%.

NOTE 3—Management Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates:

(a) Pursuant to a management agreement (the “Agreement”) with Dreyfus, the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .25% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets and is payable monthly. Under the terms of the Agreement, Dreyfus has agreed to pay all of the fund’s direct expenses, except management fees, Shareholder Services Plan fees, brokerage fees and commissions, taxes, interest expense, commitment fees on borrowings, fees and expenses of non-interested Board members, fees and expenses of independent counsel to the fund and extraordinary expenses. Dreyfus has also agreed to reduce its management fee in an amount equal to the fund’s allocable portion of the accrued fees and expenses of the non-interested Board members and fees and expenses of independent counsel to the fund and to non-interested Board members. During the period ended April 30, 2016, fees reimbursed by Dreyfus amounted to $119,148.

(b)Under the Shareholder Services Plan, the fund pays the Distributor for the provision of certain services, at an annual rate of .25% of the value of

29

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

the fund’s average daily net assets. The services provided may include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding the fund and providing reports and other information, and services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts. The Distributor may make payments to Service Agents (securities dealers, financial institutions or other industry professionals) with respect to these services. The Distributor determines the amounts to be paid to Service Agents. During the period ended April 30, 2016, the fund was charged $3,754,550pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan.

The components of “Due to The Dreyfus Corporation and affiliates” in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities consist of: management fees $641,763 and Shareholder Services Plan fees $641,763, which are offset against an expense reimbursement currently in effect in the amount of $18,545.

(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 and financial futures, during the period ended April 30, 2016, amounted to $336,987,560 and $560,159,004, respectively.

Derivatives:A derivative is a financial instrument whose performance is derived from the performance of another asset. Each type of derivative instrument that was held by the fund during the period ended April 30, 2016 is discussed below.

Financial Futures: In the normal course of pursuing its investment objective, the fund is exposed to market risk, including equity price risk,as a result of changes in value of underlying financial instruments. The fund invests in financial futures in order to manage its exposure to or protect against changes in the market. A financial futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or a sale of an asset at a specified date. Upon entering into such contracts, these investments require initial margin deposits with a counterparty, which consist of cash or cash equivalents. The amount of these deposits is determined by the exchange or Board of Trade on which the contract is traded and is subject to change. Accordingly, variation margin payments are received or made to reflect daily unrealized gains or losses which are recorded in the Statement of Operations. When the contracts are closed, the fund recognizes a realized gain or loss which is reflected in the Statement of Operations. There is

30

minimal counterparty credit risk to the fund with financial futures since they are exchange traded, and the exchange guarantees the financial futures against default. Financial futures open at April 30, 2016 are set forth in the Statement of Financial Futures.

The following summarizes the average market value of derivatives outstanding duringthe period ended April 30, 2016:

	Average Market Value ($)
Equity financial futures	49,126,136

At April 30, 2016, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments was $895,883,307, consisting of $1,051,839,047 gross unrealized appreciation and $155,955,740 gross unrealized depreciation.

At April 30, 2016, 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).

NOTE 5—Pending Legal Matters:

The fund and many other entities have been named as defendants in numerous pending litigations as a result of their participation in the leveraged buyout transaction (“LBO”) of the Tribune Company (“Tribune”). The cases allege that Tribune took on billions of dollars of debt in the LBO to purchase its own stock from shareholders at $34 per share. The LBO was closed in a two-step transaction with shares being repurchased by Tribune in a tender offer in June 2007 and in a go private merger in December 2007. In 2008, approximately one year after the LBO was concluded, Tribune filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11. Thereafter, in approximately June 2011, certain Tribune creditors filed dozens of complaints in various courts throughout the country alleging that the payments made to shareholders in the LBO were “fraudulent conveyances” under state and/or federal law, and that the shareholders must return the payments they received for their shares to satisfy the plaintiffs’ unpaid claims. These cases have been consolidated for coordinated pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York titled In re Tribune Company Fraudulent Conveyance Litigation (S.D.N.Y. Nos. 11-md-2296 and 12-mc-2296 (RJS) (“Tribune MDL”)). On March 27, 2013, the Tribune MDL was reassigned from Judge William H. Pauley to Judge Richard J. Sullivan. No explanation was given for the reassignment.

In addition, there was a case pending in United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware brought by the Unsecured Creditors

31

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

Committee of the Tribune Company that has since been transferred to the Tribune MDL (formerly The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of Tribune Co. v. FitzSimons, et al., Bankr. D. Del. Adv. Pro. No. 10-54010 (KJC)) (“FitzSimons case”). The case was originally filed on November 1, 2010. In a Fourth Amended Complaint filed in November 2012, among other claims, the Creditors Committee sought recovery under the Bankruptcy Code for alleged “fraudulent conveyances” from more than 5,000 Tribune shareholders (“Shareholder Defendants”), including the fund, and a defendants’ class of all shareholders who tendered their Tribune stock in the LBO and received cash in exchange. There were 35 other counts in the Fourth Amended Complaint that did not relate to claims against Shareholder Defendants, but instead were brought against parties directly involved in approval or execution of the leveraged buyout. On January 10, 2013, pursuant to the Tribune bankruptcy plan, Mark S. Kirchner, as Litigation Trustee for the Tribune Litigation Trust, became the successor plaintiff to the Creditors Committee in this case. The case is now proceeding as: Mark S. Kirchner, as Litigation Trustee for the Tribune Litigation Trust v. FitzSimons, et al., S.D.N.Y. No. 12-cv-2652 (RJS). On August 1, 2013, the plaintiff filed a Fifth Amended Complaint with the Court. The Fifth Amended Complaint contains more detailed allegations regarding the steps Tribune took in consideration and execution of the LBO, but does not change the legal basis for the claim previously alleged against the Shareholder Defendants.

On November 6, 2012, a motion to dismiss was filed in the Tribune MDL. Oral argument on the motion to dismiss was held on May 23, 2013. On September 23, 2013 Judge Sullivan granted the motion to dismiss on standing grounds, after rejecting defendants’ preemption arguments. By granting the motion, Judge Sullivan dismissed nearly 50 cases in the Tribune MDL. The fund was a defendant in at least one of the dismissed cases. The motion had no effect on the FitzSimons case, which had been stayed.

On September 30, 2013, plaintiffs appealed the motion to dismiss decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. On October 28, 2013, certain defendants cross-appealed from Judge Sullivan’s decision, seeking review of the arguments that Judge Sullivan rejected in his decision. On March 29, 2016, the Second Circuit issued its decision on the appeal and cross-appeal. A panel of three judges unanimously affirmed the dismissal on the ground that the plaintiffs’ claims were preempted by section 546(e) of the Bankruptcy Code. On April 12, 2016, the plaintiffs/appellants filed a petition with the Second Circuit requesting rehearing of the appeal by the same panel of judges and/or rehearing en banc by all judges on the Second

32

Circuit. As of May 20, 2016, the Second Circuit has not ruled on either request.

On November 11, 2013, Judge Sullivan entered Master Case Order No. 4 in the Tribune MDL. Master Case Order No. 4 addressed numerous procedural and administrative tasks for the cases that remain in the Tribune MDL, including the FitzSimons case. Pursuant to Master Case Order No. 4, the parties – through their executive committees and liaison counsel – attempted to negotiate a protocol for motions to dismiss and other procedural issues, and submitted rival proposals to the Court. On April 24, 2014 the Court entered an order setting a schedule for the first motions to dismiss in the FitzSimons case. Pursuant to that schedule, a “global” motion to dismiss the fraudulent transfer claim asserted against the Shareholder Defendants, which applies equally to all Shareholder Defendants including the fund, was filed on May 23, 2014. Plaintiffs’ response brief was filed on June 23, 2014, and the reply brief was filed on July 3, 2014. No date for oral argument has been scheduled. The Court also preserved Shareholder Defendants’ rights to file nineteen motions to dismiss enumerated in their proposal and motions pursuant to Rules 12(b)(2)-(5) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. If these various motions are necessary after the Court decides the global motion to dismiss, the Court will set further guidelines and briefing schedules.

At this stage in the proceedings, it is not possible to assess with any reasonable certainty the probable outcomes of the pending litigations. Consequently, at this time, management is unable to estimate the possible loss that may result.

NOTE 6—Subsequent Event:

On May 17, 2016, the Board approved, effective on or about August 31, 2016, a proposal to commence offering Class I shares as a new class of shares of the fund, and the redesignation of existing shares as Investor shares.

33

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

At a meeting of the fund’s Board of Directors held on February 17-18, 2016, 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 Board also considered Dreyfus’ extensive administrative, accounting and compliance infrastructures. The Board also considered portfolio management’s brokerage policies and practices (including policies and practices regarding soft dollars) and the standards applied in seeking best execution.

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

34

various periods ended December 31, 2015, 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 within three basis points of the Performance Group median for all periods and above the Performance Universe median for all periods. Dreyfus also provided a comparison of the fund’s calendar year total returns to the returns of the fund’s benchmark index.

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. Taking into account the fund’s “unitary” fee structure, the Board noted that the fund’s contractual management fee was above the Expense Group median, the fund’s actual management fee was above the Expense Group and Expense Universe medians and that the fund’s total expenses were below the Expense Group median and above the Expense Universe median.

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 noting the fund’s “unitary” fee structure. 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.

Analysis of Profitability and Economies of Scale. Dreyfus representatives reviewed the expenses allocated and profit received by Dreyfus and its affiliates and the resulting profitability percentage for managing the fund

35

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

and the aggregate profitability percentage to Dreyfus and its affiliates for 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 Board also considered potential benefits to Dreyfus from acting as investment adviser and noted the 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 services provided by Dreyfus are adequate and appropriate.

·The Board was satisfied with the fund’s relative performance.

·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 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 to renew the Agreement.
