Performance quoted represents past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than average annual returns shown. Investment return and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. Shares may be worth more or less than original cost when redeemed. MOP returns take into account the Class A maximum initial sales charge of 3.75%. A redemption fee of 2% may apply to shares redeemed or exchanged within 7 days of acquisition. Performance shown does not reflect any applicable redemption fees and would be lower if it did. Redemption fees are paid to and retained by the Fund and are not sales charges.

Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of this Fund carefully before investing.

Please read this prospectus carefully before you invest or send money.

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 A, C, D, Admin and Institutional share class. The returns presented are for Class A shares. 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.

 

Fundamental IndexPLUS TR Fund seeks to exceed the total return of the FTSE RAFI 1000 Index (the 'Index') by investing under normal circumstances substantially all of its assets in derivatives based on Enhanced RAFI 1000, an enhanced, performance recalibrated version of the Index, backed by a portfolio of short and intermediate maturity Fixed Income Instruments. (Prior to 10/15/06, the Fund sought to achieve this investment objective by investing primarily in FTSE RAFI 1000 Index derivatives, backed by a portfolio of short and intermediate maturity Fixed Income Instruments.) The Fund may invest in common stocks, options, futures, options on futures and swaps, including derivatives based on the Index. Use of derivative 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 those instruments.

 

Assets not invested in equity securities or derivatives may be invested in Fixed Income Instruments. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in high yield securities, which generally involve greater risk to principal than higher rated bonds. The Fund may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies and may invest beyond this limit in U.S. dollar denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Fund will normally limit its foreign currency exposure to 20% of its total assets. Investing in non-U.S. securities entails additional risks, including political and economic risk and the risk of currency fluctuations; these risks may be enhanced in emerging markets.

 

The Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Index (S&P 500) is an unmanaged index that is generally representative of the U.S. stock market. The FTSE RAFI 1000 Index is composed of the 1,000 largest publicly-traded U.S. companies, selected from the constituents of the FTSE US All Cap Index. The Index is weighted by a combination of fundamental factors, including sales, cash flow, book values and, if applicable, dividends (sales, cash flow and dividends are averaged over the prior five years).

 

^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.

 

^^ 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.
