The contingent deferred sales charge on Class C shares applies only to redemptions within 12 months of purchase.

Fee applies to the following types of accounts under $1,000 held directly with the Fund: individual retirement accounts (IRAs), Coverdell Education Savings Accounts and accounts established pursuant to the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (UTMA) or Uniform Gifts to Minors Act (UGMA).

Class R6 represents annualized actual expenses for the period January 20, 2015 (commencement of operations) through June 30, 2015.

However, because Class R6 shares are not subject to sub-transfer agent and similar fees, the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses for the Class R6 shares will be less than the expense limitation.
