                                IMPORTANT NOTICE

June 27, 2007

The annual meeting of shareholders (the "Meeting") of Van Kampen Bond Fund (the
"Fund") was held on June 22, 2007 and trustees were elected. The meeting was
adjourned, in part, to solicit additional votes in connection with the proposal
to replace the Fund's fundamental policy regarding the Fund's ability to invest
in securities or obligations of foreign issuers with a non-fundamental policy,
as outlined in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders previously mailed to
you. The adjourned meeting will be held at 10:00 a.m. Central Time on August 1,
2007 at the offices of Van Kampen Investments Inc., 1 Parkview Plaza, Oakbrook
Terrace, Illinois 60181.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT AND YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THE AFFAIRS OF YOUR FUND DOES
MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

After careful consideration, the Board of Trustees of the Fund determined that
approval of the proposal to replace the Fund's current fundamental policy
regarding investing in securities or obligations of foreign issuers with a
non-fundamental policy allowing the Fund to invest up to 20% of its total assets
in securities of foreign issuers is in the best interest of the Fund's common
shareholders. Further, the Board of Trustees recommends a vote "FOR" this
proposal.

Please join many of your fellow shareholders and cast your vote. To do so,
simply mark your vote, sign the enclosed proxy card and return it in the postage
paid envelope provided. If you prefer, you may cast your vote via the Internet
or by touch-tone telephone. Instructions for casting your vote via the Internet
or telephone are included on the proxy ballot. Additionally, the required
control number for either of these methods is printed on the proxy card. If you
choose to cast your vote via the Internet or telephone, there is no need to mail
the card.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the Van Kampen
Client Relations Department at 1-800-341-2929.

We appreciate your careful and prompt consideration of this matter.
