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.

 

This is the inception date of the oldest share classes, which for this Fund are the A, C, D, P, and Institutional share classes. The returns presented are for A shares, and measure performance from the inception of the oldest share classes to the present. 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.

 

After-tax returns are calculated using the highest historical individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor's tax situation and may differ from those shown. The after-tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold their fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements such as IRAs. In some cases the returns after taxes may exceed the returns before taxes due to an assumed tax benefit from any losses on a sale of fund shares at the end of the measurement period.

 

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 50% of its assets in debt securities whose interest is, in the opinion of bond counsel for the issuer at the time of issuance, exempt from federal income tax ("municipal bonds"), with the remainder of the Fund?s assets invested in inflation-indexed bonds of varying maturities issued by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities (such as TIPS), and other types of fixed income instruments, which may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements (such as CPI swaps). "Real return" equals total return less the estimated cost of inflation.

 

Municipal bonds generally are issued by or on behalf of states and local governments and their agencies, authorities and other instrumentalities. The Fund does not intend to invest in securities whose interest is subject to the federal alternative minimum tax.

 

Swaps are a type of derivative in which a privately negotiated agreement between two parties takes place to exchange investment cash flows or assets at specified intervals in the future. There is no central exchange or market for swap transactions, and they are therefore less liquid than exchange-traded instruments. A portfolio using swaps bears the risk that the counterparty could default under the swap agreement. A CPI swap is a fixed maturity, over-the-counter derivative in which the investor receives the "realized" rate of inflation as measured by the CPI over the life of the swap.

 

This Fund may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of its investment strategy. 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 those instruments. This Fund is non-diversified, which means that it may concentrate its assets in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund.

 

In an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates will negatively impact most bond funds, and fixed income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities with shorter durations.

 

The credit quality of the investment in the portfolio does not apply to the stability or safety of the fund. TIPS are guaranteed by the US government; shares of the Fund, however, are not. Treasury securities, if held to maturity, offer a fixed rate of return and fixed principal value. The CPI is an unmanaged index representing the rate of inflation in U.S. consumer prices as determined by the U.S. Department of Labor Statistics. There can be no guarantee that the CPI or other indexes will reflect the exact level of inflation at any given time.

 

The Barclays Capital Municipal Bond 1-10 Year Bond Index is a broad-based, total-return index comprised of bonds which are all investment-grade, fixed-rate securities with maturities between one and ten years. Unless otherwise noted, index returns reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and capital gains, if any, but do not reflect fees, brokerage commissions or other expenses of investing. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

 

^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.

 

^^ This yield is calculated by annualizing the current month'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.
