Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of this Fund carefully before investing. This and other information is contained in the Fund´s prospectus and summary prospectus, if available, which may be obtained by contacting your financial advisor, or by calling 888-877-4626. Click here for the Fund´s prospectus or summary prospectus. Please read them carefully before you invest or send money.

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

 

The Fund's investments in derivatives may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, management risk and the risk that the fund could not close out a position when it would be advantageous to do so. In particular the Fund may use swap agreements to engage in short sales related to the S&P 500. If the price of a security in a short sale has increased during the agreement, then the Fund may incur a loss equal to the increase in price from the time the short sale was entered into plus any premiums and interest paid. The Fund's investments in non-U.S. securities may be subject to more rapid and extreme changes in value. Non-U.S. markets may be subject to greater political risks of instability and currency fluctuations. Emerging markets securities may involve these risks to a higher degree, and they may also be more speculative. The Fund?s investments in high-yield securities may involve greater risk of default.

 

The 3 Month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) represents the interest rate offered by a group of London banks to the most creditworthy international banks on deposits of a stated 3-month maturity; it is often used as the base index for setting rates on variable-rate loans. The unmanaged Enhanced Research Affiliates Fundamental 1000 Index (Enhanced RAFI) tracks the 1,000 largest U.S. stocks using fundamental measures such as gross sales, free cash flow, book value and dividends and is further refined by a number of proprietary enhancements and selection screens. The Standard & Poor?s (S&P) 500 Index is an unmanaged market index generally considered representative of the U.S. stock market as a whole.

 

^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 is 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.

 

^^ Average Distribution Yield. This yield is the average of the last four quarterly distribution yields. The quarterly distribution yield is calculated by annualizing the quarter's distribution and dividing by the NAV on the last business day of the period. It does not include long- or short-term capital gains distributions. The SEC Yield is a standardized annual yield based on the most recent 30-day period. It is calculated in accordance with current Securities and Exchange Commission regulations and is subject to change.
