The Large Cap Opportunity Fund, under normal circumstances, invests at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of equity and equity related securities of U.S. and non-U.S. companies with market capitalizations at the time of initial purchase similar to those in the Russell 1000 Value Index (“mid/large cap companies”) that are publicly traded on a U.S. securities market.

The market capitalization range of the Russell 1000 Value Index changes constantly, and as a result, the capitalization of mid/large cap companies in which the Large Cap Opportunity Fund will invest will also change. As of September 30, 2006, the market capitalization range of the Russell 1000 Value Index was from approximately $2 billion to $406 billion.

Supported by an experienced team of investment professionals, the portfolio managers make judgments about the relative attractiveness of various securities in selecting stocks for the Large Cap Opportunity Fund. This Fund typically will be invested in 45 to 55 stocks. Although the Fund is built from the bottom up, stock-specific risks, sector weightings and risk/reward characteristics are all taken into account in the portfolio construction process.

The information on the Funds’ performance represent past performance, which does not guarantee future results. If you invest in a Fund, your investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more of less than their original cost. The Funds’ current performance may be lower or higher than the performance above. For most recent month-end performance, please click here.

You should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Funds before investing. You may obtain the prospectus here or by calling 800.276.2883. The Funds are subject to risks, which are described in the prospectus. In particular, when compared to mutual funds that focus on larger capitalization companies, shares of the Funds may be more volatile because of the exposure to mid capitalization companies, which may have more limited product lines and fewer capital resources. The Funds’ value investing strategy also involves risks. Value stocks can perform differently from the market as a whole and can be undervalued by the market for long periods of time. You should read the prospectus carefully before investing.
