Why invest in this Fund?

The fund seeks to maximize current income exempt from federal income tax to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital.

To pursue its goal, the fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in municipal bonds that provide income exempt from federal income tax. The fund occasionally, including for temporary defensive purposes, may invest in taxable bonds.

The fund's investments in municipal and taxable bonds must be of investment grade quality (i.e., Baa/BBB or higher) at the time of purchase or, if unrated, deemed of comparable quality by the investment adviser. Generally, the fund's average effective portfolio maturity will be between three and ten years and its average effective portfolio duration will not exceed eight years. The fund may invest in individual municipal and taxable bonds of any maturity or duration.

In calculating average effective portfolio maturity and average effective portfolio duration, the fund may treat a security that can be repurchased by its issuer on an earlier date (known as a "call date") as maturing on the call date rather than on its stated maturity date.

Yield fluctuates and past performance is no guarantee of future results.

The SEC 30-day Yield is calculated by dividing the net investment income per share earned during the period (calculated in accordance with regulatory guidelines) by the maximum offering price per share on the last day of the period.

Unsubsidized yield displays what the fund's 30-Day SEC Yield would have been had no fee waiver or expense reimbursement been in place during the period.

The taxable-equivalent yield is the return that a taxable bond fund needs to possess for its yield to equal the yield on a comparable tax-exempt bond fund, such as a municipal bond fund.

Tax rates are subject to change; please consult with your financial or tax professional for information concerning your specific situation.

* Based on maximum combined federal and Medicare tax of 40.80%. Other taxes not included.
