------

As previously described in the supplement dated March 31, 2025 to the Neuberger Berman Emerging Markets Debt Fund's (the "Mutual Fund") Summary Prospectus, Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, the Board of Trustees ("Board") of the Income Funds approved the conversion of the Mutual Fund to a newly organized series of Neuberger Berman ETF Trust (the "ETF") (the "Conversion").

The Mutual Fund will be converted into an exchange-traded fund, commonly referred to as an "ETF." After the Conversion, shareholders of the Mutual Fund will hold shares of the ETF instead of the Mutual Fund. The ETF will have the same investment adviser, sub-adviser, investment objective and fundamental investment policies, and some of the same key portfolio managers as the Mutual Fund. While the ETF will invest in emerging markets debt securities like the Mutual Fund, the ETF will have a different principal investment strategy than the Mutual Fund since it will invest primarily in emerging markets debt securities denominated in hard currencies (i.e., globally traded currencies of industrialized countries, including the U.S. dollar, euro or any currency of a nation in the G-7 (U.S., Japan, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, France and Canada)). The Conversion will be conducted pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Plan of Reorganization") and will involve several steps that will affect you as a shareholder. Additional information about the Conversion is available in the information statement/prospectus that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on June 25, 2025.

Following the Conversion, the Mutual Fund will be terminated. The Conversion is currently expected to occur on or about August 8, 2025.

After the close of business on July 17, 2025, each of Class A and Class C shares of the Mutual Fund will be converted into Institutional Class shares of the Mutual Fund. Next, on or about July 25, 2025, the Mutual Fund will conduct a reverse stock split to increase the NAV per share of Institutional Class shares while decreasing the total number of the issued and outstanding Institutional Class shares. The reverse stock split will be carried out in accordance with the stock split ratio of 1:0.1421 (old to new). Accordingly, the total number of the issued and outstanding shares will decrease by approximately 86%. In addition, the per share net asset value will be approximately 7 times higher. A shareholder's total investment value, however, will not be affected by the reverse split – meaning, the value of your investment in the Mutual Fund will be the same before and after the reverse split. The reverse stock split will not be a taxable event, nor will it have an impact on the Mutual Fund's holdings or its performance.

Next, in connection with the Conversion, shareholders of the Mutual Fund will receive shares of the ETF equal in value to the number of shares they own, including a cash payment in lieu of fractional shares of the Mutual Fund. The cash payment may be taxable.

------

In anticipation of the Conversion, the last day to purchase or exchange shares of the Mutual Fund will be August 5, 2025. The last day to redeem Mutual Fund shares will be August 6, 2025. Redemption orders for Mutual Fund shares must be placed by August 6, 2025. The Mutual Fund will publicly disclose any changes to the Conversion date. The Mutual Fund shares will be converted into ETF shares in connection with the Conversion, which is expected to close after the end of trading on or about August 8, 2025. The ETF will open for trading on NYSE Arca, Inc. on or about August 11, 2025.

**In connection with the Conversion discussed herein, an information statement/prospectus has been filed with the SEC and was mailed on or about June 25, 2025, to shareholders of record as of June 16, 2025. Free copies of the materials are also available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. These materials also are available at www.nb.com.**
