Risks and Additional Information

* Duration is a calculation of the average life of individual bonds within a bond funds, and serves as a useful measure of the entire portfolio's sensitivity to rising and falling interest rates. A Duration of 2.00 means that with a 1% decline in interest rates, the principal value should rise by 2%, and vice versa.
** The Portfolio Turnover Rate represents the fund’s portfolio turnover for the fiscal year ending 7/31/11.
Bond funds tend to experience smaller fluctuations in value than stock funds. However, investors in any bond fund are subject to fluctuations in price due to issuer and credit quality, rising or falling interest rates, inflation, and call risks associated with the underlying bonds owned by the fund. High Yield Bond Funds may have higher yields and are subject to greater credit, market and interest rate risk than higher-rated fixed-income securities.
