Investment Goal and Approach
The Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from federal income
tax at a level consistent with prudent investment risk. For high tax bracket
investors who are looking for a tax-free bond fund exempt from federal
income tax that provides a high level of income..
PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS. Current Performance may be lower or higher than
the performance data quoted. For performance current to the most recent month ended, please see www.hartfordadvisor.com.
The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost.

* 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.
