Performance quoted represents past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than average annual returns shown.

MOP returns take into account the Class A maximum initial sales charge of 5.50%. A redemption fee of 2% may apply to shares redeemed or exchanged within 7 days of acquisition. Performance shown does not reflect any applicable redemption fees and would be lower if it did. Redemption fees are paid to and retained by the Fund and are not sales charges.

Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of this Fund carefully before investing.

Please read this prospectus carefully before you invest or send money.

The daily section presents performance dating from the inception of the actual share class only.

 

**This is the inception date of the oldest share class, which for this Fund is the Institutional share class. The returns presented are for Class A shares, which were first offered in 7/00. Returns measure performance from the inception of the oldest share class to the present, so some returns predate the inception of Class A. Those returns are calculated by adjusting the Institutional returns to reflect the A shares' different charges and expenses. Total return performance assumes that all dividend and capital gains distributions were reinvested on the payable date and does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

 

At various times prior to 11/1/05, the Fund had a different investment objective, different investment policies and employed a different sub-advisor; the performance results shown would not necessarily have been achieved had the Fund's current objective and policies been in effect. The Fund will invest primarily in a portfolio of dividend-paying common stocks selected for their potential for capital growth. The Fund will also employ a strategy of writing (selling) call options on securities held in its equity portfolio and, to a lesser extent, on equity indexes and exchange traded funds (ETFs), ordinarily representing a large portion of the Fund's net assets. This Option Strategy is designed to generate gains from options premiums in an attempt to enhance the Fund's cash flow available for distribution to shareholders and to reduce overall portfolio risk. However, there is no assurance that the call option strategy will achieve its objectives. The Fund may invest in foreign securities, may invest without limit in American Depository Receipts (ADRs), and may utilize other derivative instruments not previously mentioned. Use of derivative instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that a fund could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. Portfolios investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to foreign economic and political developments; this risk may be enhanced when investing in emerging markets.

 

The Standard & Poors 500 Composite Index (S & P 500) is an unmanaged index that is generally representative of the U.S. stock market. Unless otherwise noted, index returns reflect the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, if any, but do not reflect fees, brokerage commissions or other expenses of investing. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

 

^The Lipper Category returns and rankings are calculated by Lipper Inc., a Reuters Company, which is a nationally recognized organization that compares the performance of mutual funds with similar investment objectives. The Category returns represent the average performance of included funds, while rankings compare an individual fund's returns to those of the other funds in its category. Both are based on total return performance, with capital gains and dividends reinvested, with annual operating expenses deducted, but without including front- or back-end sales charges. Rankings begin with the actual share class inception. Rankings are relative to a peer group and do not necessarily mean that the fund had high total returns.

 

Growth of $10,000 is calculated at NAV and assume that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested. They do not take into account sales charges or the effect of taxes. Results are not indicative of future performance.

 

^^ Average Distribution Yield. Distribution Yield is the sum of all short-term capital gain and dividend distributions in the last 12 months divided by the most current net asset value. The SEC Yield is a standardized annual yield based on the most recent 30-day period. It is calculated in accordance with current Securities and Exchange Commission regulations and is subject to change.
