The information pertaining to Morningstar contained herein: (1) is proprietary to Morningstar; (2) may not be copied or distributed; and (3) is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely. Neither Morningstar nor its content providers are responsible for any damages or losses arising from any use of this information. For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar RatingTM based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for a variation in a Fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads and redemption fees) placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five- and ten-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. Morningstar Ratings are for the share classes cited only; other classes may have different performance characteristics and different Morningstar ratings. Most of the funds above offer four classes of shares, each with a different combination of sales charges, ongoing fees and other features. Any mutual fund using Morningstar extended performance, represented by hollow stars, would be considered an estimate based on the performance of the fund's oldest share class and adjusted for fees. © 2012 Morningstar, Inc.

Customized performance does not reflect the full effect of the front-end or back-end sales charges which for Focus Five Cls C Fund is 0.00%. Quarterly (Standardized) performance reflects the full effect of the front-end sales charge. Other Period Performance does not reflect the full effect of the front-end or back-end sales charges. Please consult your financial advisor for prospectus and for more information on mutual fund sales charges.

(1) Maximum Sales Charge for Class A shares is a percentage of the initial investment and may be reduced based on the size of your investment. Class B and C shares have a contingent deferred sales charge when you redeem your shares depending on your holding period. Please see the Fund's Prospectus or contact your Adviser for a complete description of the applicable sales charge.
(2) Gross Expense Ratio is the expenses of the Fund reflected as a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets and do not include any voluntary or contractual fee waivers or expense limitations as described in the Fund Prospectus.
(3) Net Expense Ratio is the expenses of the Fund including any voluntary or contractual fee waivers or expense limitations as a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Inception Date: December 31, 2002
The past performance noted does not guarantee future results. Total returns and average annual returns reflect changes in share price, reinvested dividends and capital gains and are net of expenses. If expenses had not been limited to 2.0% of net assets, returns would have been lower. Investment results and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. When shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Performance pertains to the Class AAA shares only. Other share classes may have different performance characteristics. The fund typically invests in 40-60 companies. By concentrating in a small number of investments, the Fund's risks are increased because each investment has a greater effect on the Fund's performance than a Fund which is more broadly diversified. Securities of smaller companies present greater risks than securities of larger, more established companies. The stocks of smaller companies may trade less frequently and experience more abrupt price movements than stocks of larger companies, therefore, investing in this sector involves special challenges.
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.
