Management Fees 0.40%
Distribution (12b-1) Fees none
Other Expenses 0.64%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses [1] 1.04%
[1] Because the Fund incurred AFFE during the most recent fiscal year, the operating expenses in this fee table will not correlate to the expense ratio in the Fund's financial statements (or the "Financial Highlights" section in the prospectus) because the financial statements include only the direct operating expenses incurred by the Fund, not the indirect costs of investing in other investment companies.
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
remain the same.
Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

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 most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 72%
of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies
Under normal circumstances, the Tax-Managed Large Cap Fund will invest at least
80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment
purposes) in equity securities of large companies, including ETFs and ADRs. For
purposes of this Fund, a large company is a company with a market capitalization
in the range of companies in the Russell 1000 Index (between $117 million and
$406 billion as of December 31, 2011) at the time of purchase. The market
capitalization range and the composition of the Russell 1000 Index are subject
to change. The Fund may also, to a lesser extent, invest in common and preferred
stocks of small capitalization companies. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its
assets in foreign securities.

The Fund uses a multi-manager approach, relying upon a number of Sub-Advisers to
manage portions of the Fund's portfolio under the general supervision of SIMC.
In managing its portion of the Fund's assets, each Sub-Adviser generally applies
either a growth-oriented, a value-oriented or a blended approach to selecting
investments. Growth oriented managers generally select stocks they believe have
attractive growth and appreciation potential in light of such characteristics as
revenue and earnings growth, expectations from sell-side analysts and relative
valuation, while value-oriented managers generally select stocks they believe
are attractively valued in light of fundamental characteristics such as
earnings, capital structure and/or return on invested capital.

The Fund seeks to manage the impact of taxes through the use of a Sub-Adviser
that acts as an overlay manager that implements the portfolio recommendations of
the Sub-Advisers. Each Sub-Adviser provides a model portfolio to the Fund on an
ongoing basis that represents that Sub-Adviser's recommendation as to the
securities to be purchased, sold or retained by the Fund. The overlay manager
constructs a portfolio for the Fund that represents the aggregation of the model
portfolios of the other Sub-Advisers, with the weighting of each Sub-Adviser's
model in the total portfolio determined by SIMC. The overlay manager implements
the portfolio consistent with that represented by the aggregation of the model
portfolios, with limited authority to vary from such aggregation, primarily for
the purpose of seeking efficient tax management of the Fund's securities
transactions. The overlay manager may also, to a lesser extent, deviate from
such aggregation for the purposes of risk management and transaction cost
management. The overlay manager seeks to manage the impact of taxes by, among
other things, selling stocks with the highest tax cost first, opportunistically
harvesting losses and deferring recognition of taxable gains, where possible.
Principal Risks
Depositary Receipts Risk - Depositary receipts, such as ADRs, are certificates
evidencing ownership of shares of a foreign issuer that are issued by depositary
banks and generally trade on an established market. Depositary receipts are
subject to many of the risks associated with investing directly in foreign
securities, including, among other things, political, social and economic
developments abroad, currency movements and different legal, regulatory and tax
environments.

Equity Market Risk - The risk that stock prices will fall over short or extended
periods of time.

Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) Risk - The risks of owning shares of an ETF
generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities the ETF is
designed to track, although lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in its
value being more volatile than the underlying portfolio securities.
  
Foreign Investment Risk - The risk that non-U.S. securities may be subject to
additional risks due to, among other things, political, social and economic
developments abroad, currency movements and different legal, regulatory and tax
environments.

Investment Style Risk - The risk that large capitalization securities may
underperform other segments of the equity markets or the equity markets as a
whole.

Liquidity Risk - The risk that certain securities may be difficult or impossible
to sell at the time and the price that the Fund would like. The Fund may have to
lower the price, sell other securities instead or forego an investment
opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on Fund management or
performance.

Small Capitalization Risk - Smaller capitalization companies in which the Fund
invests may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than
larger, more established companies. In particular, small capitalization
companies may have limited product lines, markets and financial resources and
may depend upon a relatively small management group. Therefore, small
capitalization stocks may be more volatile than those of larger companies. Small
capitalization stocks may be traded over-the-counter or listed on an exchange.

Taxation Risk - The Fund is managed to minimize tax consequences to investors,
but will likely earn taxable income and gains from time to time.

Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund.
Performance Information
The bar chart and the performance table below provide some indication of the
risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in the Fund's performance from
year to year for the past ten calendar years and by showing how the Fund's
average annual returns for 1, 5 and 10 years, and since the Fund's inception,
compared with those of a broad measure of market performance. The Fund's past
performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of how the
Fund will perform in the future. For current performance information, please
