Example  This example is intended to help you compare the costof investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that youinvest $10,000 in the fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the endof those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that thefund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, basedon these assumptions your costs would be:

|   |    |    |     |
|--------|---------|---------|----------|
| 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | 10 years |
| $87    | $271    | $471    | $1,049   |

Portfolio Turnover  The fundpays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over”its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may resultin higher taxes when fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflectedin annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the fund’s performance. During the mostrecent fiscal year, the fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 12.7% of the average value of its portfolio.

Investments,Risks, and Performance

Principal InvestmentStrategies  The fund will normally invest at least 80% of its net assets (including any borrowingsfor investment purposes) in common stocks, with an emphasis on large-capitalization stocks that havea strong track record of paying dividends or that are believed to be undervalued.

The fund typically employsa “value” approach in selecting investments. Our in-house research team seeks companies thatappear to be undervalued by various measures and may be temporarily out of favor but have good prospectsfor capital appreciation and dividend growth.

In selecting investments, we generally look for companies in theaggregate with one or more of the following:

· an established operating history;

· above-averagedividend yield relative to the S&P 500;

· low price/earnings ratio relative to the S&P 500;

· asound balance sheet and other positive financial characteristics; and

· low stockprice relative to a company’s underlying value as measured by assets, cash flow, or business franchises.

Thefund generally seeks investments in large-capitalization companies and the fund’s yield, which reflectsthe level of dividends paid by the fund, is expected to normally exceed the yield of the S&P 500Stock Index. In pursuing its investment objective, the fund has the discretion to deviate from its normalinvestment criteria, as previously described, and purchase securities that the fund’s managementbelieves will provide an opportunity for substantial appreciation. These situations might arise whenthe fund’s management believes a security could increase in value for a variety of reasons, includingan extraordinary corporate event, a new product introduction or innovation, a favorable competitive development,or a change in management.

While most assets will typically be invested in U.S. common stocks, the fund may investin foreign stocks in keeping with the fund’s objectives.

The fund may sell securities for a variety of reasons, such as tosecure gains, limit losses, or redeploy assets into more promising opportunities.

Principal Risks  As with any mutual fund, there is no guaranteethat the fund will achieve its objective. The fund’s share price fluctuates, which means you couldlose money by investing in the fund. The principal risks of investing in this fund are summarized asfollows:

Active management riskThe fund is subject to the risk that the investment adviser’sjudgments about the attractiveness, value, or potential appreciation of the fund’s investments mayprove to be incorrect. If the securities selected and strategies employed by the fund fail to producethe intended results, the fund could underperform other funds with similar objectives and investmentstrategies.

Risks of stockinvesting  Stocks generally fluctuate in value more than bonds and may decline significantly overshort time periods. There is a chance that stock prices overall will decline because stock markets tendto move in cycles, with periods of rising prices and falling prices. The value of a stock in which thefund invests may decline due to general weakness in the stock market or because of factors that affecta company or a particular industry. 

Investmentstyle risk  Different investment styles tend to shift in and out of favor, depending on marketconditions and investor sentiment. The fund’s value approach to investing could cause it to underperformother stock funds that employ a different investment style. The intrinsic value of a stock with valuecharacteristics may not be fully recognized by the market for a long time or a stock judged to be undervaluedmay actually be appropriately priced at a low level.

Dividend-paying stock risk  The fund’s emphasis on dividend-paying stockscould cause the fund to underperform similar funds that invest without consideration of a company’strack record of paying dividends. Stocks of companies with a history of paying dividends may not participatein a broad market advance to the same degree as most other stocks, and a sharp rise in interest ratesor economic downturn could cause a company to unexpectedly reduce or eliminate its dividend.

Market capitalization risk  Although stocks issued by largercompanies tend to have less overall volatility than stocks issued by smaller companies, larger companiesmay not be able to attain the high growth rates of successful smaller companies, especially during strongeconomic periods. In addition, larger companies may be less capable of responding quickly to competitivechallenges and industry changes, and may suffer sharper price declines as a result of earnings disappointments.

Foreign investing risk  This isthe risk that the fund’s investments in foreign securities may be adversely affected by political,social, and economic conditions overseas, reduced liquidity, or decreases in foreign currency valuesrelative to the U.S. dollar.
