* Performance Including Maximum Sales Charge-
The maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 5.5% (Except: 4.5% for High Yield, Income, Total Return Bond, Tax- Free MN, Tax- Free CA, Tax- Free NY, Tax- Free National, U.S. Government Securities, and the Inflation Plus Fund. 3.0% for Short Duration, and no sales charge for the Money Market Fund). Class B shares reflect the deduction of the contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) in years one through six of 5%, 4%, 3%, 3%, 2%, and 1% respectively. Class C shares reflect a 1% CDSC in year one.
Class A, B, and C shares commenced operations on February 19, 2002. Share performance prior to February 19, 2002 reflects Class E (inception 6/2/86), M, and N (inception 11/14/94) share performance and operating expenses less Class A, B and C share sales charges, respectively, where applicable. If the Class A, B, and C operating expenses had been applied during that period, performance would have been lower.
