View Detailed Performance
1 The Adviser has contractually agreed to limit expenses of the Fund. This expense limitation agreement excludes interest, taxes, brokerage, and extraordinary expenses and is subject to possible recoupment. Please see the Fund's prospectus for more information.
2 The expense limits will continue through at least October 1, 2010. Expenses are being waived to the contractual cap.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted.
SEC fund returns assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions and include a sales charge. Net Asset Value fund returns assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions. Total return for less than one year is not annualized. Results would have been less favorable if the sales charge were included.
It is important to note that the Fund has a limited operating history. Performance over a longer period of time may be more meaningful than short-term performance.
Principal Risks
All investing involves risks of fluctuating prices and the uncertainties of rates of return and yield inherent in investing. Prices of value-Oriented Securities tend to correlate more closely with economic cycles than growth-oriented securities, they generally are more sensitive to changing economic conditions.

Other risks of the Fund include but are not limited to: Convertible Securities Risks; Market Trends Risks; Price Volatility Risks; and Securities Lending Risks. Investors should consult the Fund's Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a more detailed discussion of the Fund's risks.
