The Overall Morningstar Rating™ for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its 3-, 5-, and 10-year Morningstar Rating™ metrics. As of 1/31/10 the Select Value Fund was rated against 357, 253 and 84 mid-cap value funds over the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods, respectively. The Value Plus Fund was rated against 308, 240, and 130 small value funds over the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods, respectively. The Value Fund was rated against 308, 240, and 130 small value funds over the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods, respectively. The Select Value Fund has received Morningstar's 5-star rating for the 5-year period and 4-star rating for the 3- and 10-year periods. The Value Plus Fund has received Morningstar's 5-star rating for the 3- and 5-year periods and 4-star rating for the 10-year period. The Value Fund has received Morningstar's 3-star rating for the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods. For each fund with at least a 3-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating™ based on Morningstar's risk-adjusted return measure that accounts for variation in a fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in a category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) The Morningstar Ratings™ are for the specified share class; other classes may have different performance characteristics.

The Funds invest in small companies selected on a value basis. Such securities generally are more volatile and less liquid than those of larger companies. Value-based investments are subject to the risk that the broad market may not recognize their intrinsic values. The Select Value and Value Plus Funds also invest in a smaller number of stocks (generally 30 to 60) than the average mutual fund. The performance of these holdings generally will increase the volatility of the Funds’ returns.
