(1) Effective October 1, 2006, the Portfolio’s advisory fee was reduced by 0.05% to 0.44% per annum.
(2) “Other Expenses” reflect an administrative fee of 0.25%.

Examples. The Examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in Administrative Class shares of the Portfolio with the costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Examples assume that you invest $10,000 in the noted class of shares for the time periods indicated, and then redeem all your shares at the end of those periods. The Examples also assume that your investment has a 5% return each year, the reinvestment of all dividends and distributions, and that the Portfolio’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, the Examples show what your costs would be based on these assumptions.
