MULTIPLE CLASS PERFORMANCE ADVERTISING
Pursuant to the Multiple Class Plan, the funds may issue additional classes
of existing funds or introduce new funds with multiple classes available for
purchase. To the extent a new class is added to an existing fund, the manager
may, in compliance with SEC and NASD rules, regulations and guidelines, market
the new class of shares using the historical performance information of the
original class of shares. When quoting performance information for the new class
of shares for periods prior to the first full quarter after inception, the
original class' performance will be restated to reflect the expenses of the new
class. For periods after the first full quarter after inception, actual
performance of the new class will be used.
