The daily section presents performance dating from the inception of the actual share class only.

**This is the inception date of the oldest share class, which for this Fund is the Institutional share class. The returns presented are for Administrative shares, which were first offered in 4/96. Returns measure performance from the inception of the oldest share class to the present, so some returns predate the inception of the Administrative share class. Those returns are calculated by adjusting the Institutional returns to reflect the Administrative shares' different charges and expenses. Administrative shares generally have a $5 million minimum investment; under special circumstances they may be available. Please see the prospectus for more information. Total return performance assumes that all dividend and capital gains distributions were reinvested on the payable date and does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

The Fund may invest its assets in smaller cap stocks and securities issued in initial public offerings (IPOs), which may entail greater risk than larger companies, including higher volatility. When investing in value securities, the market may not necessarily have the same value assessment as the manager, and, therefore, the performance of the securities may decline.

The Russell 2000 Growth Index is a capitalization weighted broad based index of 2,000 small capitalization U.S. stocks considered to have a greater than average growth orientation.

^The Lipper Category returns and rankings are calculated by Lipper Inc., a Reuters Company, which is a nationally recognized organization that compares the performance of mutual funds with similar investment objectives. The Category returns represent the average performance of included funds, while rankings compare an individual fund's returns to those of the other funds in its category. Both are based on total return performance, with capital gains and dividends reinvested, with annual operating expenses deducted, but without including front- or back-end sales charges. Rankings begin with the actual share class inception. Rankings are relative to a peer group and do not necessarily mean that the fund had high total returns.

Growth of $10,000 and Best/Worst 1-Year Period results are calculated at NAV and assume that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested. They do not take into account sales charges or the effect of taxes. Results are not indicative of future performance.
