cost. The funds impose a 2% redemption fee on shares held less
than 180 days. Performance data does not reflect the redemption
fee. If reflected, total returns would be reduced. Current
performance of the fund may be lower or higher than the performance
quoted.

Morningstar, Inc., is an independent mutual fund research and rating service. Each Morningstar category represents a universe of funds with similar investment objectives. Rankings for the periods shown are based on fund total returns with dividends and distributions reinvested and do not reflect sales charges. The highest percentile rank is 1 and the lowest is 100.

The fund will invest in foreign securities. Investing in foreign securities
exposes investors to economic, political and market risks and fluctuations
in foreign currencies. Though not a small-cap fund, the fund may invest in
the securities of small companies. Small-company investing subjects investors
to additional risks, including security price volatility and less liquidity
than investing in larger companies.
