1
The shares of the affiliated underlying funds in which the Fund invests a portion of its assets impose a separate investment advisory fee and a service fee. To avoid charging an investment advisory fee and a service fee at an effective rate above 0.30% for investment advisory services and 0.25% for shareholder servicing on affiliated investments, the investment adviser and shareholder servicing agent have contractually agreed to waive a portion of the investment advisory and service fees equal to amounts charged by the affiliated underlying funds. This contract is in effect through 10/31/24.
2
The Fund’s adviser and/or its affiliates have contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding Acquired Fund (Underlying Fund) Fees and Expenses, dividend and interest expenses related to short sales, interest, taxes, expenses related to litigation and potential litigation, expenses related to trustee elections and extraordinary expenses) exceed 0.93%, 1.43% and 0.68% of the average daily net assets of Class A, Class C and Class I Shares, respectively. These waivers are in effect through 10/31/24, at which time it will be determined whether such waivers will be renewed or revised. To the extent that the Fund engages in securities lending, affiliated money market fund fees and expenses resulting from the Fund’s investment of cash received from securities lending borrowers are not included in Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses and therefore, the above waivers do not apply to such investments.
Example
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated. The Example also assumes that your
1

investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses are equal to the total annual fund operating expenses after fee waivers and expense reimbursements shown in the fee table through 10/31/24 and total annual fund operating expenses thereafter. Your actual costs may be higher or lower.

Portfolio Turnover
The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the Fund’s most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 38% of the average value of its portfolio.
What are the Fund’s main investment strategies?
The Fund invests in a combination of domestic and international equity, fixed income, and alternative assets, as described below. The Fund invests in mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that are advised by the Fund’s adviser or an affiliated investment adviser (J.P. Morgan Funds). The Fund also invests in open-end and closed-end investment companies (which may or may not be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) and ETFs that are managed by unaffiliated investment advisers (collectively, unaffiliated funds) and directly in individual securities. In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law or the exemptive relief obtained from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Fund invests directly in other financial instruments, including derivatives, such as futures, swaps and structured investments, to gain exposure to, or to overweight or underweight allocations among, various sectors or markets.
The Fund’s adviser is J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. (JPMIM or the Adviser) and it sets the Fund’s overall investment strategies. The Fund is managed by J.P. Morgan Private Investments Inc. (JPMPI). JPMPI utilizes an allocation process (Strategic Asset Allocations) to invest the Fund’s assets across the various asset classes and with various sub-advisers. JPMPI and JPMIM use rigorous criteria to select sub-advisers and underlying fund managers to manage certain portions of the Fund’s assets. In choosing whether to buy or sell an investment and to set their allocations, JPMPI considers the following fac
tors: (1) market trends, (2) JPMPI’s outlook for a market capitalization or investment style category, and (3) an underlying fund manager’s performance in various market conditions. JPMPI will also consider the advantages and disadvantages to the Fund of using actively versus passively managed investment vehicles. By combining the strengths of different sub-advisers and underlying fund managers, the Fund seeks to benefit from a variety of investment selection processes and methodologies to achieve its investment objective.
The descriptions below include both the range that the Fund may invest within a particular asset class and the various investments that the Fund may use to gain exposure to such asset class. JPMPI frequently monitors and may make tactical changes to the Strategic Asset Allocations, including shifts among the various asset classes and allocations to the other sub-advisers and underlying fund managers.
U.S. and International Equity: The allocation range will typically be 30%–75% of the Fund’s total assets. The Fund’s equity-related investments consist of J.P. Morgan Funds, unaffiliated funds and individual securities. Whether investing through an investment company or directly in securities, the investments in this asset class are: common stock, preferred stock, structured investments, convertible securities, depositary receipts and warrants to buy common stocks. The Fund invests in foreign and emerging market securities.
U.S. and International Fixed Income: The allocation range will typically be 25%–60% of the Fund’s total assets. The Fund’s fixed income investments include J.P. Morgan Funds, unaffiliated funds and individual securities. Whether investing through an investment company or directly in securities, the investments in this asset class include: U.S. government securities (including agencies and instrumentalities), municipal bonds (including housing authority obligations), domestic and foreign corporate bonds, high yield securities (junk bonds), loan participations and assignments, debt obligations issued or guaranteed by a foreign sovereign government or its agencies, authorities or political subdivisions, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, inflation-indexed bonds and Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS).
Alternative: The allocation range will typically be 0%–30% of the Fund’s total assets. The Fund’s alternative-related investments include J.P. Morgan Funds and unaffiliated funds. Whether investing through a mutual fund or directly in securities, the investments in this asset class give the Fund exposure to: market neutral strategies, absolute return strategies, directional strategies, real estate (including real estate investment trusts (REITs)), private equity, mezzanine debt and commodities.
The Fund will gain exposure to commodity markets primarily by investing in the Access Balanced Fund CS Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the Subsidiary). The allocation range will typically be 0%–10% of the Fund’s total assets. The Subsidiary is advised by JPMIM and sub-advised by JPMPI. The Subsidiary (unlike the Fund) may invest without limitation in commodity-linked structured notes and other commodity-linked derivative instruments, including derivative instruments linked to the value of a particular commodity or commodity futures contract, or a subset of commodities or commodity futures contracts. However, the Subsidiary is otherwise subject to the same fundamental, non-fundamental and certain other investment
2

restrictions as the Fund. The Subsidiary may use derivatives to obtain long exposure in an attempt to increase the Subsidiary’s income or gain, to hedge various investments and for risk management.
The Fund and the Subsidiary may invest in ETFs, including both JPMorgan ETFs and unaffiliated funds, in order to gain exposure to particular asset classes. An ETF is a registered investment company, depositary receipt or other pooled investment vehicle that typically seeks to track the performance of a particular market index or security. These indexes include not only broad-based market indexes but more specific indexes as well, including those relating to particular sectors, markets, regions or industries.
Ordinarily, the Fund’s investment in a single unaffiliated ETF is limited to 5% of its total assets and in all unaffiliated ETFs to 10% of its total assets. The SEC has issued exemptive orders to many ETFs that allow any fund investing in such ETFs to disregard these 5% and 10% limitations. The Fund intends to invest in unaffiliated ETFs that have received such exemptive orders and it may invest any amount of its total assets in a single ETF or in multiple ETFs.
Derivatives, which are instruments that have a value based on another instrument, exchange rate or index, may be used as substitutes for securities in which the Fund can invest. The Fund uses structured notes as tools in the management of portfolio assets. In particular, the Fund uses structured notes for risk management and to increase the Fund’s income or gain. To the extent that the Fund invests in underlying funds, such underlying funds may also use derivatives.
The Fund’s Main Investment Risks
The Fund is subject to management risk and may not achieve its objective if the adviser’s expectations regarding particular instruments or markets are not met.
An investment in this Fund or any other fund may not provide a complete investment program. The suitability of an investment in the Fund should be considered based on the investment objective, strategies and risks described in this prospectus, considered in light of all of the other investments in your portfolio, as well as your risk tolerance, financial goals and time horizons. You may want to consult with a financial advisor to determine if this Fund is suitable for you.
The Fund is subject to the main risks noted below, any of which may adversely affect the Fund’s performance and ability to meet its investment objective.
Investments in Mutual Funds and ETFs Risk. The Fund’s investments are concentrated in J.P. Morgan Funds and unaffiliated funds, so the Fund’s investment performance is directly related to the performance of the underlying funds. Shareholders will indirectly bear the expenses incurred by the underlying funds. In addition, the Adviser’s authority to allocate investments among J.P. Morgan Funds and unaffiliated funds creates conflicts of interest. For example, investing in J.P. Morgan Funds could cause the Fund to incur higher fees and will cause the Adviser and/or its affiliates to receive greater compensation, increase assets under management or support particular investment strategies or J.P. Morgan Funds. The price movement of an
index-based ETF may not track the underlying index and may result in a loss. ETFs and closed-end investment companies may trade at a price below their net asset value (also known as a discount).
General Market Risk. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one country or region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform in comparison to securities in general financial markets, a particular financial market or other asset classes due to a number of factors, including inflation (or expectations for inflation), deflation (or expectations for deflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, market instability, financial system instability, debt crises and downgrades, embargoes, tariffs, sanctions and other trade barriers, regulatory events, other governmental trade or market control programs and related geopolitical events. In addition, the value of the Fund’s investments may be negatively affected by the occurrence of global events such as war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural disasters or events, country instability, and infectious disease epidemics or pandemics.
Foreign Securities and Emerging Markets Risk. The Fund and certain of the underlying funds that invest in foreign issuers and foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to additional risks, including political and economic risks, unstable governments, civil conflicts and war, greater volatility, decreased market liquidity, expropriation and nationalization risks, sanctions or other measures by the United States or other governments, currency fluctuations, higher transaction costs, delayed settlement, possible foreign controls on investment, and less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards of foreign markets. In certain markets where securities and other instruments are not traded “delivery versus payment,” the Fund may not receive timely payment for securities or other instruments it has delivered or receive delivery of securities paid for and may be subject to increased risk that the counterparty will fail to make payments or delivery when due or default completely. Foreign market trading hours, clearance and settlement procedures, and holiday schedules may limit the Fund's ability to buy and sell securities.
Events and evolving conditions in certain economies or markets may alter the risks associated with investments tied to countries or regions that historically were perceived as comparatively stable becoming riskier and more volatile. These risks are magnified in “emerging markets.” Emerging market countries typically have less-established market economies than developed countries and may face greater social, economic, regulatory and political uncertainties. In addition, emerging markets typically present greater illiquidity and price volatility concerns due to smaller or limited local capital markets and greater difficulty in determining market valuations of securities due to limited public information on issuers. Certain emerging market countries may be subject to less stringent requirements regarding accounting, auditing, financial reporting and record keeping and therefore, material information related to an investment may not be available or reliable. Additionally, the Fund and certain of the underlying funds that invest in foreign issuers and foreign securities may have substantial difficulties exercising their legal rights or enforcing a counterparty's legal
3

obligations in certain jurisdictions outside of the United States, in particular in emerging market countries, which can increase the risk of loss.
Country and Region Risk. Some of the underlying funds concentrate their investments in securities of a single country or region (e.g., China Region or Latin America). Because these underlying funds concentrate their investments in a single country or region, their performance may be more volatile than that of a fund that can invest globally.
Industry and Sector Focus Risk. At times the underlying funds or the Fund may increase the relative emphasis of their investments in a particular industry or sector. The prices of securities of issuers in a particular industry or sector may be more susceptible to fluctuations due to changes in economic or business conditions, government regulations, availability of basic resources or supplies, contagion risk within a particular industry or sector or to other industries or sectors, or other events that affect that industry or sector more than securities of issuers in other industries and sectors. To the extent that the underlying funds or the Fund increase the relative emphasis of their investments in a particular industry or sector, the value of the Fund’s Shares may fluctuate in response to events affecting that industry or sector.
Currency Risk. The Fund and certain of the underlying funds are subject to risks associated with foreign currency. Certain underlying funds are not required to hedge their non-dollar investments back to the U.S. dollar for defensive purposes. As a result, changes in foreign currency exchange rates will affect the value of certain underlying funds’ securities and may affect the price of the underlying funds’ shares. Generally, when the value of the U.S. dollar rises in value relative to a foreign currency, an investment in that country loses value because that currency is worth fewer U.S. dollars. Devaluation of a currency by a country’s government or banking authority also will have a significant impact on the value of any investments denominated in that currency. Currency markets generally are not as regulated as securities markets, may be riskier than other types of investments and may increase the volatility of the Fund.
Equity Securities Risk. The Fund and certain of the underlying funds invest in equity securities (such as stocks) that are more volatile and carry more risks than some other forms of investment. The price of equity securities may rise or fall because of economic or political changes or changes in a company’s financial condition, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. When the value of the stocks held by the Fund or an underlying fund goes down, the value of your investment in the Fund decreases in value.
Fixed Income Securities Risk. Some of the underlying funds invest in fixed income securities. These securities will increase or decrease in value based on changes in interest rates and are subject to the risk that an issuer or a counterparty will fail to make payments when due or default. If an issuer’s or a counterparty’s financial condition worsens, the credit quality of the issuer or counterparty may deteriorate making it difficult for the underlying fund to sell such investments. If rates increase, the value of these investments generally declines. Securities with greater interest rate sensitivity and longer maturities generally are subject to greater fluctuations in value. When the value of investments in the Fund or underlying fixed income
funds goes down, the value of your investment in the Fund will be affected. The Fund may face a heightened level of interest rate risk due to certain changes in monetary policy.
Credit Risk. The Fund’s investments are subject to the risk that issuers and/or counterparties will fail to make payments when due or default completely. Prices of the Fund’s investments may be adversely affected if any of the issuers or counterparties it is invested in are subject to an actual or perceived deterioration in their credit quality. Credit spreads may increase, which may reduce the market values of the Fund’s securities. Credit spread risk is the risk that economic and market conditions or any actual or perceived credit deterioration may lead to an increase in the credit spreads (i.e., the difference in yield between two securities of similar maturity but different credit quality) and a decline in price of the issuer’s securities.
High Yield Securities Risk. Certain of the underlying funds may invest in securities that are issued by companies that are highly leveraged, less creditworthy or financially distressed. These investments (known as junk bonds) are considered to be speculative and are subject to greater risk of loss, greater sensitivity to economic changes, valuation difficulties and potential illiquidity.
In recent years, there has been a broad trend of weaker or less restrictive covenant protections in the high yield market. Among other things, under such weaker or less restrictive covenants, borrowers might be able to exercise more flexibility with respect to certain activities than borrowers who are subject to stronger or more protective covenants. For example, borrowers might be able to incur more debt, including secured debt, return more capital to shareholders, remove or reduce assets that are designated as collateral securing high yield securities, increase the claims against assets that are permitted against collateral securing high yield securities or otherwise manage their business in ways that could impact creditors negatively. In addition, certain privately held borrowers might be permitted to file less frequent, less detailed or less timely financial reporting or other information, which could negatively impact the value of the high yield securities issued by such borrowers. Each of these factors might negatively impact the high yield instruments held by an underlying fund.
No active trading market may exist for some instruments and certain investments may be subject to restrictions on resale. The inability to dispose of an underlying fund’s securities and other investments in a timely fashion could result in losses to an underlying fund. Because some instruments may have a more limited secondary market, liquidity and valuation risk may be more pronounced for an underlying fund. When instruments are prepaid, an underlying fund may have to reinvest in instruments with a lower yield or fail to recover additional amounts (i.e., premiums) paid for these instruments, resulting in an unexpected capital loss and/or a decrease in the amount of dividends and yield.
Real Estate Securities Risk. Certain of the underlying funds may invest in real estate securities, including REITs, which are subject to the same risks as direct investments in real estate and mortgages, and their value will depend on the value of the underlying real estate interests. These risks include default, prepayments, changes in value resulting from changes in interest rates and demand for real and rental property, and the management skill and creditworthiness of REIT issuers. The
4

underlying funds will indirectly bear their proportionate share of expenses, including management fees, paid by each REIT in which it invests in addition to the expenses of the underlying fund.
Commodity Risk. Certain underlying funds have exposure to commodities. Exposure to commodity-related securities and derivatives may subject the Fund to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities, particularly if the instruments involve leverage. The value of commodity-linked investments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, commodity index volatility, changes in interest rates, or factors affecting a particular industry or commodity. In addition, to the extent that an underlying fund gains exposure to an asset through synthetic replication by investing in commodity-linked investments rather than directly in the asset, it may not have a claim on the applicable underlying asset and will be subject to enhanced counterparty risk.
Derivatives Risk. The Fund and certain of the underlying funds may use derivatives in connection with their investment strategies. Derivatives, including futures, swaps and structured investments, may be riskier than other types of investments because they may be more sensitive to changes in economic or market conditions and could result in losses that significantly exceed the Fund’s original investment. Many derivatives create leverage thereby causing the Fund to be more volatile than it would have been if it had not used derivatives. Certain derivatives also expose the Fund and the underlying funds to counterparty risk (the risk that the derivative counterparty will not fulfill its contractual obligations), including credit risk of the derivative counterparty. Certain derivatives are synthetic instruments that attempt to replicate the performance of certain reference assets. With regard to such derivatives, the Fund or underlying funds do not have a claim on the reference assets and are subject to enhanced counterparty risk. Certain of the Fund’s transactions in foreign currency derivatives and other derivatives could also affect the amount, timing and character of distributions to shareholders which may result in the Fund realizing more short-term capital gain and ordinary income subject to tax at ordinary income tax rates than it would if it did not engage in such transactions, which may adversely impact the Fund’s after-tax returns. In addition, the Fund and certain of the underlying funds may use derivatives for non-hedging purposes, which increases the Fund’s or the underlying funds’ potential for loss. Derivatives also can expose the Fund to derivative liquidity risk relating to the payment obligations created thereunder and legal and operational risk.
Structured Note Risk. The Fund, or certain of the underlying funds, invest in commodity, currency, equity and fixed income linked structured notes. Structured notes are typically privately negotiated transactions between two or more parties. The fees associated with a structured note may lead to increased tracking error. The Fund also bears the risk that the issuer of the structured note will default. The Fund bears the risk of loss of its principal investment and periodic payments expected to be received for the duration of its investment. In addition, a liquid market may not exist for the structured notes. The lack of a liquid market may make it difficult to sell the structured notes at an acceptable price or to accurately value them.
Index Investing Risk. Certain of the underlying funds, including ETFs, in which the Fund may invest are index funds. Index funds are not actively managed and are designed to track the
performance and holdings of a specified index. Securities may be purchased, held and sold by an index fund at times when an actively managed fund would not do so. There is also the risk that the underlying fund’s performance may not correlate with the performance of the index.
Preferred Securities Risk. The Fund and certain of the underlying funds may invest in preferred securities. Preferred securities generally have a preference as to dividends and liquidation over an issuer’s common stock but ranks junior to debt securities in an issuer’s capital structure. Unlike interest payments on debt securities, dividends on preferred securities are payable only if declared by the issuer’s board of directors. As a consequence, if the board of directors of an issuer does not declare dividends or distributions for the relevant dividend or distribution periods, the issuer will not be obligated to pay dividends or distributions on the relevant payment date, and such dividends and distributions may be forfeited. Holders of preferred securities typically do not have voting rights except in certain circumstances where they may be given only limited voting rights. Preferred securities also may be subject to optional or mandatory redemption provisions. Preferred shares may carry different rights or obligations in jurisdictions outside of the United States.
Government Securities Risk. The Fund and certain of the underlying funds invest in securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities (such as securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae), the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac)). U.S. government securities are subject to market risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. Securities, such as those issued or guaranteed by Ginnie Mae or the U.S. Treasury, that are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States are guaranteed only as to the timely payment of interest and principal when held to maturity and the market prices for such securities will fluctuate. Notwithstanding that these securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States, circumstances could arise that would prevent the payment of interest or principal. This would result in losses to the Fund. Securities issued or guaranteed by U.S. government related organizations, such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and no assurance can be given that the U.S. government will provide financial support. Therefore, U.S. government related organizations may not have the funds to meet their payment obligations in the future. U.S. government securities include zero coupon securities, which tend to be subject to greater market risk than interest-paying securities of similar maturities.
Subsidiary Risk. By investing in the Subsidiary, the Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the Subsidiary’s investments. The derivatives and other investments held by the Subsidiary are generally similar to those that are permitted to be held by the Fund and are subject to the same risks that apply to similar investments if held directly by the Fund. These risks are described elsewhere in this prospectus. There can be no assurance that the investment objective of the Subsidiary will be achieved. The Subsidiary is not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act), and, unless otherwise noted in this prospectus, is not subject to all the investor protections of the 1940 Act. Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands could result in the inability of the Fund and/or the Subsidiary to operate as described in this prospectus and could adversely affect the Fund.
5

Risk Associated with the Fund Holding Cash, Money Market Instruments and Other Short-Term Investments. The Fund will, at times, hold assets in cash, money market instruments and other short-term investments, which may hurt the Fund’s performance. These positions may also subject the Fund to additional risks and costs.
Transactions and Liquidity Risk. The Fund or an underlying fund could experience a loss and its liquidity may be negatively impacted when selling securities to meet redemption requests. The risk of loss increases if the redemption requests are unusually large or frequent or occur in times of overall market turmoil or declining prices. Similarly, for both the Fund and underlying funds, large purchases of a fund’s shares may adversely affect the fund’s performance to the extent that the fund is delayed in investing new cash and is required to maintain a larger cash position than it ordinarily would.

Investments in the Fund are not deposits or obligations of, or guaranteed or endorsed by, any bank and are not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC, the Federal Reserve Board or any other government agency.

The Fund’s Past Performance
This section provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows how the performance of the Fund’s Class A Shares has varied from year to year for the past ten calendar years. The table shows the average annual total returns over the past one year, five years and ten years. The table compares the Fund’s performance to the performance of the Access Balanced Composite Benchmark, a customized benchmark, the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Index - Hedged USD, a broad-based securities market index, the MSCI World Index (net total return), a broad-based securities market index, and the S&P 500 Index, a broad-based securities market index. Since January 1, 2018, the Access Balanced Composite Benchmark is a composite benchmark comprised of unmanaged indexes that corresponds to the Fund’s model allocation and that consists of the MSCI World Index (net total return) (55%), Bloomberg Global Aggregate Index - Hedged USD (40%), and HFRX Global Hedge Fund Index (5%). From July 1, 2016 until December 31, 2017, the Access Balanced Composite Benchmark was a composite benchmark comprised of the MSCI World Index (net total return) (55%), Bloomberg Global Aggregate Index (35%), Bloomberg T-Bill 1-3 Month (5%), and HFRX Global Hedge Fund Index (5%). From April 1, 2013 until June 30, 2016, the Access Balanced Composite Benchmark was a composite benchmark comprised of the MSCI World Index (net total return) (50%), Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Index (35%), Citigroup 3-Month Treasury Bill Index (5%), Bloomberg Commodity Index (5%) and HFRX Global Hedge Fund Index (5%). From July 1, 2011 until April 1, 2013, the Access Balanced Composite Benchmark was a composite benchmark comprised of the MSCI World Index (net total return) (50%), Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Index (35%) and Citigroup 3-Month Treasury Bill Index (15%). From the inception date of September 30, 2009 to July 1, 2011, the Access Balanced Composite Benchmark was a composite benchmark comprised of the MSCI World Index (net total return) (55%), Bloomberg Capital U.S. Aggregate Index (35%) and Citigroup
3-Month Treasury Bill Index (10%). Past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of how any class of the Fund will perform in the future.

After-tax returns are shown only for the Class A Shares and after-tax returns for the other classes will vary. After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. The after-tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold their shares through tax-deferred arrangements such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts. In some cases, the “Return After
Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares” may exceed the “Return Before Taxes” due to an assumed benefit from any losses on a sale of shares at the end of the measurement period.

Tax Information
The Fund intends to make distributions that may be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains, except when your investment is in an IRA, 401(k) plan or other tax-advantaged investment plan, in which case you may be subject to federal income tax upon withdrawal from the tax-advantaged investment plan.
Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries
If you purchase shares of the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the financial intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or financial intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.
