Net asset value (NAV) returns do not include sales charges or contingent deferred sales charges (CDSC). Public offering price (POP) returns include the maximum initial sales charge of 4.75% for class A shares. For class B shares, the CDSC returns reflect the maximum applicable charges as follows: through first year-5%, second year-4%, third year-3%, fourth year-3%, fifth year-2%, sixth year-1%, thereafter-0%. For class C shares, a 1% CDSC applies through the first year only. For class G shares, the CDSC for the holding period after purchase is as follows: through the first year-5%, second year-4%, third year-4%, fourth year-4%, fifth year-3%, sixth year-2%, seventh year-1%, thereafter-0%. For the class T shares, the “with sales charge” returns include the maximum 4.75% charge. Class Z shares are sold only at net asset value with no 12b-1 fees. Performance results may reflect any voluntary waiver or reimbursement of fund expenses by the advisor or its affiliates. Absent these waivers or reimbursement arrangements, performance results may have been lower.
 
The average annual total returns shown include the returns of Retail A Shares (for class T shares) and Retail B Shares (for class G shares) of the Galaxy fund for periods prior to inception of newer class shares. The returns shown for class G shares also include the returns of Retail A Shares (adjusted to reflect the sales charges applicable to class G shares) for periods prior to the inception of Retail B Shares of the Galaxy fund. Class G shares generally would have had substantially similar returns because they would have been invested in the same portfolio of securities, although the returns would be lower to the extent that expenses for class G shares exceed expenses paid by Retail A Shares.
 
Class T and G shares are sold only to investors who received (and who have continuously held) class T or G shares in connection with the merger of certain Galaxy Funds into various Columbia funds.
 

Year-to-date (YTD) total returns are cumulative returns.

 
Total return performance includes changes in share price and reinvestment of income and capital gains distributions.
 
Z shares may be purchased by, among others: any shareholder (and family members) of a fund distributed by Columbia Management Distributor, Inc. (CMDI) who (i) holds class Z shares, (ii) who holds class A shares that were exchanged into class Z shares, or (iii) who purchased no-load shares of funds merged with funds distributed by CMDI; clients of fee-based broker/dealers or registered investment advisors that recommend the purchase of fund shares; any trustee or director (and family members) of any fund distributed by CMDI; insurance companies, trust companies, banks, endowments, investment companies and foundations; and retirement plans with assets of at least $5 million.

The Barclays Capital 3-15 Year Blend Municipal Bond Index tracks the performance of municipal bonds issued after December 31, 1990 with remaining maturities between 2 and 17 years and at least $7 million in principal amount outstanding. Unlike mutual funds, indices are not managed and do not incur fees or expenses. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
 
Lipper Inc. is an independent mutual fund performance monitor. Lipper ranks mutual funds’ total performance (assuming reinvestment of distributions) against other funds having similar investment objectives and strategies. Lipper makes no adjustment for the effect of sales loads.
 
Morningstar Rating (if shown):  For each fund with at least a 3-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar RatingTM based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted return measure that accounts for variation in a fund’s monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive five stars, the next 22.5% receive four stars, the next 35% receive three stars, the next 22.5% receive two stars and the bottom 10% receive one star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) The Overall Morningstar Rating for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five- and ten-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. Morningstar RatingTM is for individual share classes only. Other classes may have different performance characteristics. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
