** The Funds are intended for long-term investors and
not for those who wish to trade frequently in Fund shares. The Funds believe
that excessive short-term trading of Fund shares creates risks for the Funds and
their long-term shareholders, including interference with efficient portfolio
management, increased administrative and brokerage costs and potential dilution
in the value of shares. Certain of the Funds impose and retain a 2.00% redemption
fee (short-term trading fee) on shares that are sold or exchanged on or before
the seventh day after the date of purchase.
Please refer to Fund's prospectus for more information on the Short term trading fee.

The value of utility stocks changes as long-term interest rates change. Funds investing in a single sector, such as utilities, may be subject to more volatility than funds that invest more broadly. The utilities industries can be significantly affected by government regulation, financing difficulties, supply or demand of services, or fuel and natural resources conservation.
The Fund's share price will fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund's portfolio securities. Stocks are subject to market, economic and business risks that cause their prices to fluctuate. When you sell Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them. Consequently, you can lose money by investing in the Fund.
Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, sales charges and expense of the fund carefully before investing. The prospectus contains more complete information about this and other matters. The prospectus should be read carefully before investing.
