[1]On September 30, 2011, the MSCI EAFE Value Index (Net) replaced the MSCI EAFE Value Index (Gross) as the Fund's primary benchmark. The Fund's investment manager made this recommendation to the Fund's Board because the investment manager believes that the Net version better reflects how dividends paid to the Fund on foreign securities generally are treated for tax purposes and, therefore, provides a more appropriate basis for comparing the Fund's performance. Information on both versions of the index will be included for a one-year transition period. Thereafter, only the Net version will be included.
Fund performance information prior to March 7, 2011 represents that of the Fund as a series of RiverSource International Managers Series, Inc., a Minnesota corporation. The Fund was reorganized into a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust II, a Massachusetts business trust, on that date.
