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 and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the fund's operating expenses (including one year of capped expenses in each period) remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Years	A	T	C	R6	INST	S
1	$533	$335	$263	$56	$61	$66
3	752	569	551	226	225	256
5	989	822	965	411	402	461
10	1,668	1,545	2,119	945	916	1,052

You would pay the following expenses if you did not redeem your shares:

Years	A	T	C	R6	INST	S
1	$533	$335	$163	$56	$61	$66
3	752	569	551	226	225	256
5	989	822	965	411	402	461
