&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**I.** **Appendix A: Merrill Lynch** 

Effective immediately, in the section "**Appendix A: Intermediary Sales Charge Discounts, Waivers and Other Information**," *the sub-section titled* ***"Appendix A: Merrill Lynch"*** is deleted and replaced with the following:

Purchases or sales of front-end (for example, Class A) or level-load (for example, Class C) mutual fund shares through a Merrill platform or account will be eligible only for the following sales load waivers (front-end, contingent deferred, or back-end waivers) and discounts, which differ from those disclosed elsewhere in this Fund's prospectus.

It is the client's responsibility to notify Merrill at the time of purchase or sale of any relationship or other facts that qualify the transaction for a waiver or discount. A Merrill representative may ask for reasonable documentation of such facts and Merrill may condition the granting of a waiver or discount on the timely receipt of such documentation.

Additional information on waivers, discounts, and share class exchanges is available in the Merrill Sales Load Waiver and Discounts Supplement (the "Merrill SLWD Supplement") and in the Mutual Fund Investing at Merrill pamphlet at ml.com/funds. Clients are encouraged to review these documents and speak with their financial advisor to determine whether a transaction is eligible for a waiver or discount.

**CLASS A SHARES**

As described elsewhere in this prospectus, Stifel may receive compensation out of the front-end sales charge if you purchase Class A shares through Stifel.

**Rights of accumulation**

Rights of accumulation (ROA) that entitle shareholders to breakpoint discounts on front-end sales charges will be calculated by Stifel based on the aggregated holding of eligible assets in the American Beacon Fund Complex held by accounts within the purchaser's household at Stifel. Ineligible assets include class A Money Market Funds not assessed a sales charge. Fund Family assets not held at Stifel may be included in the calculation of ROA only if the shareholder notifies his or her financial advisor about such assets.

The employer maintaining a SEP IRA plan and/or SIMPLE IRA plan may elect to establish or change ROA for the IRA accounts associated with the plan to a plan-level grouping as opposed to including all share classes at a shareholder or pricing group level.

**Front-end sales charge waivers on Class A shares available at Stifel**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Class C shares that have been held for more than seven (7) years may be converted to Class A shares or
other front-end share class(es) of the same fund pursuant to Stifel's policies and procedures. To the extent that this prospectus
elsewhere provides for a waiver with respect to the exchange or conversion of such shares following a shorter holding period, those provisions
shall continue to apply.

• Shares purchased by employees and registered representatives of Stifel or its affiliates and their family
members as designated by Stifel.

• Shares purchased in a Stifel fee-based advisory program, often referred to as a "wrap" program.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Shares purchased through reinvestment of capital gains distributions and dividend reinvestment when purchasing
shares of the same or other fund within the American Beacon Fund Complex.

• Shares purchased from the proceeds of redeemed shares of American Beacon Fund Complex so long as the proceeds
are from the sale of shares from an account with the same owner/beneficiary within 90 days of the purchase. For the absence of doubt,
automated transactions (i.e. systematic purchases, including salary deferral transactions and withdrawals) and purchases made after shares
are sold to cover Stifel
Nicolaus' account maintenance fees are not eligible for rights of reinstatement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Shares from rollovers into Stifel from retirement plans to IRAs.

• Shares exchanged into Class A shares from another share class so long as the exchange is into the same
fund and was initiated at the direction of Stifel. Stifel is responsible for any remaining CDSC due to the fund company, if applicable.
Any future purchases are subject to the applicable sales charge as disclosed in this prospectus.

• Purchases of Class 529-A shares through a rollover from another 529 plan.

• Purchases of Class 529-A shares made for reinvestment of refunded amounts.

• Employer-sponsored retirement plans (e.g., 401(k) plans, 457 plans, employer-sponsored 403(b) plans, profit
sharing and money purchase pension plans and defined benefit plans). For purposes of this provision, employer sponsored retirement plans
do not include SEP IRAs, Simple IRAs or SAR-SEPs.

• Shares exchanged or sold in a Stifel fee-based program.

**Share Class Conversions in Advisory Accounts**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Stifel continually looks to provide our clients with the lowest cost share class available based on account
type. Stifel reserves the right to convert shares to the lowest cost share class available at Stifel upon transfer of shares into an advisory
program.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**III.** **Appendix A: Wells Fargo** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**a.** Effective immediately, in the section "**Appendix A: Intermediary Sales Charge Discounts, Waivers and Other Information**," *in the sub-section titled*  ***- Appendix A: Wells Fargo"*** the following is added in each Prospectus:

**Wells Fargo Clearing Services, LLC and Wells Fargo Advisors Financial Network, LLC (collectively, "Wells Fargo Advisors")**

Multi-08272025-Appendix A

Effective April 1, 2026, Clients of Wells Fargo Advisors purchasing fund shares through Wells Fargo Advisors are eligible for the following sales charge discounts (also referred to as "breakpoints") and waivers, which can differ from discounts and waivers described elsewhere in the prospectus or statement of additional information ("SAI").

Wells Fargo Advisors can ask for documentation supporting the qualification.

**Wells Fargo Advisors Class A share front-end sales charge waivers information.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Wells Fargo Advisors employee and employee-related accounts according to Wells Fargo Advisor's employee
account linking rules. Legacy accounts and positions receiving affiliate discounts prior to the effective date will continue to receive
discounts. Going forward employees of affiliate businesses will not be offered NAV.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Shares purchased through reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions when purchasing shares
of the same fund.

WellsTrade, the firm's online self-directed brokerage account, generally offers no-load share classes but there could be instances where a Class A share is offered without a front-end sales charge.

**Wells Fargo Advisors Class 529-A share front-end sales charge waivers information.**

Wells Fargo Advisors clients purchasing or converting to Class 529-A shares of the fund through Wells Fargo Advisors transactional brokerage accounts are entitled to a waiver of the front-end load in the following circumstances:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Recontribution(s) of distributed funds are only allowed during the NAV reinstatement period as dictated
by the sponsor's specifications outlined by the plan.

Wells Fargo Advisors is not able to apply the NAV Reinstatement privilege for 529 Plan account purchases placed directly at the fund company. Investors wishing to utilize this privilege outside of Wells Fargo systems will need to do so directly with the Plan or a financial intermediary that supports this feature.

Unless specifically described above, other front-end load waivers are not available on mutual fund purchases through Wells Fargo Advisors.

Multi-08272025-Appendix A

**Wells Fargo Advisors Contingent Deferred Sales Charge information.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Effective April 1, 2026, SEP or SIMPLE IRAs will not be aggregated as a group plan. They will aggregate
with the client's personal accounts based on Social Security Number. Previously established SEP and SIMPLE IRAs may still be aggregated
as a group plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Effective April 1, 2026, Employer-sponsored retirement plan (e.g., 401(k) plans, 457 plans, employer-sponsored
403(b) plans, profit sharing and money purchase pension plans and defined benefit plans) accounts will aggregate with other plan accounts
under the same Tax ID and will not be aggregated with other retirement plan accounts under a different Tax ID or personal accounts. For
purposes of this provision, employer-sponsored retirement plans do not include SEP IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, SAR-SEPs or Keogh plans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Gift of shares will not be considered when determining breakpoint discounts

Effective June 30, 2020, C Class shares will convert automatically into A Class shares on the 25th day of the month (or, if the 25th is not a business day, the next business day thereafter) following the eighth anniversary of the month on which the purchase order was accepted, provided that the Fund or the financial intermediary through which a shareholder purchased C Class shares has records verifying that the C Class shares have been held for at least eight years. The first conversion of C Class to A Class shares under this new policy would take place on July 25, 2020 for all C Class shares that were held for more than eight years as of June 30, 2020.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**b.** Effective April 1, 2026, the last paragraph is deleted in its entirety.
