Performance data quoted
represents past performance and does not guarantee future results.
The 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 the original cost. Current performance of the
fund may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. The
funds impose a 2.00% redemption fee on shares held less than 60
days. Performance data does not reflect the redemption fee.
If reflected, total returns would be reduced.
Performance data shown is that of
the Class A Shares at NAV and does not reflect the deduction of the
maximum sales charge of 5.75%. If reflected, the load would
reduce the performance quoted. The front-end sales charge is
being waived for all purchases of the Mid-Cap Fund - Class A Shares
until January 28, 2009.
Investment performance reflects fee
waivers in effect. In the absence of such waivers, total
return would be reduced. |
