Past performance is no guarantee of future results. An investment in the Fund involves risk, including loss of principal. Investment return and the value of shares will fluctuate.Covered Call Breakdown: Strike Distance measures the difference between the strike price of an option and the market price of the underlying security or index. The Duration of an option is the time period between the purchase (or sale) of the call option and the expiration of that call option. Weighted Average Strike Distance and Weighted Average Duration are weighted averages of all the call options sold by the fund (since inception).

The primary objective of the NFJ Dividend Interest and Premium Strategy Fund is to seek current income, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. The Fund will invest its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in dividend-paying or other income-producing equity securities including common stock, preferred stock and other equity-related securities, such as debt instruments and preferred stocks convertible into common stock and related synthetic instruments. The Fund may also invest in non-U.S. securities other than ADRs, including emerging market securities. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to foreign economic and political developments; this risk may be enhanced when investing in emerging markets.

 

The convertible component will ordinarily consist of convertible securities, including synthetic convertible securities, and may include convertible securities that are of below investment grade quality. Funds that invest in convertibles may have to convert the securities before they would otherwise, which may have an adverse effect on the Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective. High-yield securities typically have a lower credit rating than other securities which generally involves a greater risk to principal.

 

The Fund will employ its index option strategy by writing (selling) call options on equity indexes such that the underlying value of the indexes are approximately equal to and do not exceed the value of the equity component of the Fund. The Fund may also utilize other derivative strategies involving call and put options, futures and forward contracts, swap agreements, short sales and other derivative instruments in an attempt to hedge against market and other risks in the portfolio. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that a fund could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. Portfolios investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments.

 

The credit quality of the securities in the portfolio are generally calculated by Moody's or S&P; if unrated, the investment manager may determine a comparable rating, which is included in the portfolio breakdown. The credit quality of the investment in the portfolio does not apply to the stability or safety of the fund. Duration is a measure of the fund's price sensitivity expressed in years.
