Performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance data does not reflect a 2.00% redemption fee on shares redeemed two months or less from their original date of purchase. If this fee were reflected, one month performance for these funds would be lower than that shown. Current performance may be lower or higher than the data quoted.

All investments, domestic and foreign, involve risks including the risk of possible loss of principal. The market value of a fund's portfolio may decline as a result of a number of factors, including adverse economic and market conditions, prospects of stocks in the portfolio, changing interest rates, and real or perceived adverse competitive industry conditions. Investing overseas involves special risks including among others, risks related to political or economic instability, foreign currency (such as exchange, valuation, and fluctuation) risk, market entry or exit restrictions, illiquidity and taxation. Emerging markets pose greater risks than investments in developed markets.
Please see the prospectus for a full description of the risks associated with the fund.
