 exchange controls; and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These risks are more pronounced to the extent that the Fund invests a significant amount of its investments in companies located in one region. These risks may be greater in emerging markets and in less developed countries. For example, prior governmental approval for foreign investments may be required in some emerging market countries, and the extent of foreign investment may be subject to limitation in other emerging countries. With respect to risks associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the Fund does not expect to engage in foreign currency hedging transactions.

Portfolio Turnover Risk.The Fund cannot predict its securities portfolio turnover rate with certain accuracy. Higher portfolio turnover rates could result in corresponding increases in brokerage commissions and may generate short-term capital gains taxable as ordinary income.

Short Sale Risk.When a cash dividend is declared on a security for which the Fund holds a short position, the Fund incurs the obligation to pay an amount equal to that dividend to the lender of the shorted security. By closing out the short position prior to the ex-dividend date, such dividend expenses are avoided. The Fund’s actual dividend expenses paid on securities sold short may be significantly higher than 0% of its managed assets due to, among other factors, the actual extent of the Fund’s short positions (which may range from 0% to 30% of managed assets), the actual dividends paid with respect to the securities the Fund sells short, and the actual timing of the Fund’s short sale transactions, each of which may vary over time and from time to time.

Small and Medium Cap Company Risk.Compared to investment companies that focus only on large capitalization companies, the Fund’s share price may be more volatile because it also invests in small and medium capitalization companies. Compared to large companies, small and medium capitalization companies are more likely to have (i) more limited product lines or markets and less mature businesses, (ii) fewer capital resources, (iii) more limited management depth and (iv) shorter operating histories. Further, compared to large cap stocks, the securities of small and medium capitalization companies are more likely to experience sharper swings in market values, be harder to sell at times and at prices that the Fund’s Investment Adviser believes appropriate, and offer greater potential for gains and losses.
