The Managed Components include a small-cap growth component, a balanced component, a fixed income component and a growth component. The Managed Components each invest to varying degrees, according to its investment strategy, in a diverse portfolio of securities including, but not limited to, common stocks, securities with equity characteristics (such as preferred stocks, warrants or fixed income securities convertible into common stock), corporate and U.S. Government fixed income securities, money market instruments and/or cash or cash equivalents. The allocation of the Portfolio’s assets among the four components is as follows: <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" border="0" style="BORDER-COLLAPSE:COLLAPSE" align="center"> <tr> <td width="93%"> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="6%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr style="background-color: #CCEEFF;"> <td valign="top"> •     Small-Cap Growth Component </td> <td valign="bottom">    </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right"> 20 </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> %  </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> •     Balanced Component (14% equities / 6% fixed income) </td> <td valign="bottom">    </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right"> 20 </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> %  </td> </tr> <tr style="background-color: #CCEEFF;"> <td valign="top"> •     Fixed Income Component </td> <td valign="bottom">    </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right"> 20 </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> %  </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> •     Growth Component </td> <td valign="bottom">    </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right"> 40 </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> %  </td> </tr> </table> Differences in investment returns among the Managed Components will cause the actual percentages to vary over the course of a calendar quarter from the target allocations referenced above. Accordingly, the Portfolio’s assets will be reallocated or “rebalanced” among the Managed Components on at least a quarterly basis to restore the target allocations for the Portfolio. The Small-Cap Growth Component invests principally in equity securities, including those of lesser known or high growth companies or industries, such as technology, telecommunications, media, healthcare, energy and consumer cyclicals. Although the component’s investments will primarily be in small-capitalization companies, the component may invest substantially in mid-capitalization companies and to a smaller degree, large-capitalization companies. The Balanced Component invests principally in equity securities of large-capitalization companies and investment grade fixed income securities. As noted above, approximately 20% of the Portfolio’s assets will be allocated to the Fixed Income Component, which, under normal circumstances, invests primarily in investment grade fixed income securities (U.S. or foreign). The component may also invest substantially in short-term investments, foreign securities (including securities denominated in foreign currencies), asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities and when-issued and delayed-delivery securities. The Growth Component invests principally in equity securities selected for their growth potential. Although the component’s investments in equity securities may be primarily in large-capitalization companies, it may invest substantially in small- and mid-capitalization companies. falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaPrincipal investment strategies of the Fund.

Shares of the Portfolio are not bank deposits and are not guaranteed or insured by any bank, government entity or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. As with any mutual fund, there is no guarantee that the Portfolio will be able to achieve its investment goal. If the value of the assets of the Portfolio goes down, you could lose money. The following is a summary description of the principal risks of investing in the Portfolio. Equity Securities Risk. The Portfolio invests principally in equity securities and is therefore subject to the risk that stock prices will fall and may underperform other asset classes. Individual stock prices fluctuate from day-to-day and may decline significantly. The prices of individual stocks may be negatively affected by poor company results or other factors affecting individual prices, as well as industry and/or economic trends and developments affecting industries or the securities market as a whole. Securities Selection Risk. A strategy used by the Portfolio, or individual securities selected by the portfolio managers, may fail to produce the intended return. Large-Capitalization Companies Risk. Large-cap companies tend to be less volatile than companies with smaller market capitalizations. In exchange for this potentially lower risk, the Portfolio’s value may not rise as much as the value of portfolios that emphasize smaller companies. Growth Stock Risk. Growth stocks can be volatile for several reasons. Since the issuers usually reinvest a high portion of earnings in their own business, growth stocks may lack the dividend yield associated with value stocks that can cushion total return in a bear market. Also, growth stocks normally carry a higher price/earnings ratio than many other stocks. Consequently, if earnings expectations are not met, the market price of growth stocks will often go down more than other stocks. However, the market frequently rewards growth stocks with price increases when expectations are met or exceeded. Risk of Investing in Bonds. As with any fund that invests significantly in bonds, the value of your investment in the Portfolio may go up or down in response to changes in interest rates or defaults (or even the potential for future defaults) by bond issuers. The market value of bonds and other fixed income securities usually tends to vary inversely with the level of interest rates; as interest rates rise the value of such securities typically falls, and as interest rates fall, the value of such securities typically rises. Longer-term and lower coupon bonds tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates. Interest Rate Fluctuations Risk. Fixed income securities may be subject to volatility due to changes in interest rates. The market value of bonds and other fixed income securities usually tends to vary inversely with the level of interest rates; as interest rates rise, the value of such securities typically falls, and as interest rates fall, the value of such securities typically rises. Longer-term and lower coupon bonds tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates. Credit Risk. Credit risk applies to most fixed income securities, but is generally not a factor for obligations backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. Government. The Portfolio could lose money if the issuer of a fixed income security is unable or perceived to be unable to pay interest or repay principal when it becomes due. Various factors could affect the issuer’s actual or perceived willingness or ability to make timely interest or principal payments, including changes in the issuer’s financial condition or in general economic conditions. Derivatives Risk. A derivative is any financial instrument whose value is based on, and determined by, another security, currency, index or benchmark (e.g., stock options, futures, caps, floors, etc.). In recent years, derivative securities have become increasingly important in the field of finance. Futures and options are now actively traded on many different exchanges. Forward contracts, swaps, and many different types of options are regularly traded outside of exchanges by financial institutions in what are termed “over the counter” markets. Other more specialized derivative securities often form part of a bond or stock issue. To the extent a contract is used to hedge another position in the portfolio, the Portfolio will be exposed to the risks associated with hedging as described in the Glossary. To the extent a forward, option or futures contract is used to enhance return, rather than as a hedge, the Portfolio will be directly exposed to the risks of the contract. Gains or losses from non-hedging positions may be substantially greater than the cost of the position. Foreign Investment Risk. The value of your investment may be affected by fluctuating currency values, changing local and regional economic, political and social conditions, and greater market volatility. In addition, foreign securities may not be as liquid as domestic securities. Mortgage- and Asset-Backed Securities Risk. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities represent interests in “pools” of mortgages or other assets, including consumer loans or receivables held in trust. The characteristics of these mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities differ from traditional fixed-income securities. Mortgage-backed securities are subject to “prepayment risk” and “extension risk.” Prepayment risk is the risk that, when interest rates fall, certain types of obligations will be paid off by the obligor more quickly than originally anticipated and the Portfolio may have to invest the proceeds in securities with lower yields. Extension risk is the risk that, when interest rates rise, certain obligations will be paid off by the obligor more slowly than anticipated causing the value of these securities to fall. Small movements in interest rates (both increases and decreases) may quickly and significantly reduce the value of certain mortgage-backed securities. These securities also are subject to risk of default on the underlying mortgage, particularly during periods of economic downturn. Small- and Medium-Capitalization Companies Risk. Securities of small- and medium-capitalization companies are usually more volatile and entail greater risks than securities of large companies. Market Risk. The Portfolio’s share price can fall because of weakness in the broad market, a particular industry, or specific holdings. The market as a whole can decline for many reasons, including adverse political or economic developments in the U.S. or abroad, changes in investor psychology, or heavy institutional selling. The prospects for a sector, an industry or an issuer may deteriorate because of a variety of factors, including disappointing earnings or changes in the competitive environment. In addition, a subadviser’s assessment of companies held in the Portfolio may prove incorrect, resulting in losses or poor performance even in a rising market. Finally, the Portfolio’s investment approach could fall out of favor with the investing public, resulting in lagging performance versus other comparable portfolios. The value of a security may decline for a number of reasons directly related to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods and services. falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaNarrative Risk Disclosure.
