The Russell 2000 Index, an unmanaged index of companies widely representative of small capitalization companies based on market capitalization, is not available for direct investment. Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.  The market cap range of the benchmark frequently changes.  As a result, the capitalization of companies in which the Fund invests may also change.

Investments in small capitalization companies present greater risk of loss than investments in large companies.  Investments in value companies can continue to be undervalued for long periods of time and be more volatile than the stock market in general.  Investments in growth companies can be more sensitive to the company's earnings and more volatile than the stock market in general.  International investments are subject to special risks not ordinarily associated with domestic investments, including currency fluctuations, economic and political change and differing accounting standards that may adversely affect portfolio securities. These risks may be heightened in emerging markets.
