Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Each fund is ranked based on average annual total returns assuming reinvestment of dividends, capital gains and distributions at net asset value and the deduction of all fund expenses. Each fund is ranked within a universe of funds similar in portfolio characteristics and capitalizations as defined by Lipper Inc. Rankings do not include the effect of the Fund's sales charges. Results would have been less favorable had sales charges been included. A high Lipper ranking does not necessarily imply that a fund achieved positive results for the period.

Exchange Privileges: Many mutual funds that charge front-end sales loads offer a discount on the sales loads for a large investment. The investment levels required to obtain a reduced sales load are commonly referred to as "breakpoints." Typically, you may be entitled to a lower front-end load based on a single transaction if the dollar amount exceeds one or more breakpoints. In addition, some funds offer discounts based on purchases made over time, under a right of accumulation or letter of intent. The criteria for breakpoints for each mutual fund are set out in the fund prospectus and statements of additional information. FINRA issued an Investor Alert to ensure that investors better understand how breakpoints work and what you may need to know to make sure that, should you purchase shares eligible for breakpoints, you are charged the lowest possible front-end sales charge.
