Strategy and Fund Description

The allocation shown below will be maintained until economic conditions dictate a change, at which point the Board may decide to change the weights of the existing funds, replace a fund to upgrade performance or add or delete a fund in order to increase or decrease exposure to a specific market segment. This Fund makes monthly income distributions to investors.
