For further information, please contact the Fund toll-free at 1-800-773-3863.

This supplement is to notify shareholders, potential investors, and other interested parties of a change in investment policies that will allow the Fund to invest in broader range of foreign securities. The overall investment objective and strategies remain the same. The change is described in more detail below. The section of the Prospectus entitled "Principal Investment Strategies" is being amended by replacing the last sentence of the second paragraph of that section in its entirety with the following: The Advisor may also invest in foreign companies through foreign securities, as well as American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") or similar depositary receipts which are issued by a domestic bank, but which represent an equity interest in the foreign company. The section of the Prospectus entitled "Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund" is being amended by adding a new second paragraph: Foreign Securities Risk. The Fund may have significant investments in foreign securities, which have investment risks different from those associated with domestic securities. The value of foreign investments may be affected by the value of the local currency relative to the U.S. dollar, changes in exchange control regulations, application of foreign tax laws, changes in governmental economic or monetary policy, or changed circumstances in dealings between nations. There may be less government supervision of foreign markets, resulting in non-uniform accounting practices and less publicly available information about issuers of foreign securities. In addition, foreign brokerage commissions, custody fees, and other costs of investing in foreign securities are often higher than in the United States. Investments in foreign issues could be affected by other factors not present in the United States, including expropriation, armed conflict, confiscatory taxation, and potential difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations.
