Performance data quoted represents past performance which is no guarantee of future results.

Bond prices are sensitive to changes in interest rates and a rise in interest rates can cause a decline in their prices.

High yield, lower-rated securities generally entail greater market, credit/default and liquidity risks, and may be more volatile than investment grade securities.

Index classifications are based upon, and individual portfolio securities are assigned to, the classification and sub-classification categories of the Lehman Brothers High Yield 2% Issuer Constrained Index (LHY2%ICI). Individual portfolio securities that are not included in the LHY2%ICI are assigned to an index classification category at the discretion of the fund’s advisor.

Investors should carefully consider the fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses before investing. To obtain a prospectus containing this and other information, contact us or view the prospectus provided on this website. Please carefully read the prospectus before investing.
