* Expense ratios are as of the fund’s most recent prospectus. Performance may reflect waivers or reimbursements of fund expenses by the advisor or its affiliates. Absent these waivers, or reimbursement arrangements, performance results may be lower. View a list of funds for which the investment advisor or its affiliates has agreed to reimburse or waive a portion of the fund expenses. Unless a specific end date is provided, the waiver or reimbursement may be revised or discontinued at any time.

Equity Funds: Net asset value (NAV) returns do not include sales charges or contingent deferred sales charges (CDSC). If they were included, returns would have been lower. Class Z and Y shares are sold only at NAV with no 12b-1 fee. Public offering price (POP) returns include the maximum 5.75% sales charge for class A, the appropriate class B contingent deferred sales charge for the holding period after purchase as follows: first year - 5%, second year - 4%, third year - 3%, fourth year - 3%, fifth year -2%, sixth year -1%, thereafter - 0% and the class C contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the first year only. Performance for different share classes varies based on differences in sales charges and fees associated with each class.

Fixed Income Funds: Net asset value (NAV) returns do not include sales charges or contingent deferred sales charges (CDSC). If they were included, returns would have been lower. Class Z and Y shares are sold only at NAV with no 12b-1 fee. POP returns include the maximum 4.75% sales charge for class A, the appropriate class B contingent deferred salescharge for the holding period after purchase as follows: first year -5 %, second year - 4%, third year - 3%, fourth year - 3%, fifth year - 2%, sixth year - 1%, thereafter - 0% and the class C contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the first year only. Performance for different share classes varies based on differences in sales charges and fees associated with each class.

Short-Intermediate Fixed Income Funds: Net asset value (NAV) returns do not include sales charges or contingent deferred sales charges (CDSC). If they were included, returns would have been lower. Class Z and Y shares are sold at NAV with no 12b-1 fee. Public offering price (POP) returns include the maximum initial sales charge of 3.25% for class A shares,the applicable CDSC for class B shares (3%, 3%, 2%, 1%, 0% for the first through fifth years after purchase, respectively), and the maximum CDSC of 1.00% for class C shares during the first year after purchase. Performance for different share classes varies based on differences in sales charges and fees associated with each class.

Performance data quoted represents past performance and current performance may be lower or higher. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

All results shown assume reinvestment of distributions and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

The sales charge typically applied to class A shares, which carry a 12b-1 fee, is waived for purchases of the fund through Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs) and defined contribution plans.
Effective 4/1/09, the fund will change its index to the MSCI EAFE Value Net (USD) Index from the MSCI EAFE Net (USD) Index. The MSCI EAFE Index (Europe, Australasia, Far East), MSCI EAFE Value Index and MSCI EAFE Growth Index are a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that measures the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the United States and Canada. As of June 2007, the index consisted of the following 21 developed market country indices: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. MSCI constructs the Value and Growth indices using a unique holdings-based style approach that provides a precise definition of style using eight historical and forward-looking fundamental data points. Each security is placed into either the Value or Growth Index, or may be partially allocated to both (with no double counting). The objective of the index design is to divide constituents of an underlying MSCI Equity Index into respective value and growth indices, each targeting 50% of the free float-adjusted market capitalization of the underlying market index.

Performance information for class R shares, which were initially offered on January 23, 2006, includes returns of the fund's class A shares for periods prior to the inception of class R shares. Total returns have not been restated to reflect any expense differential (e.g. Rule 12b-1) between any of the share classes. Had the expense differential been reflected, total returns for class R shares would have been lower. Obtain Expense Ratios for all share classes including A and R shares.
