A supplementary document to the Fund’s prospectus that includes additional information about the Fund and its operations.  
Important Risks: Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. There is no guarantee a fund will achieve its stated objective. Security prices fluctuate in value depending on general market and economic conditions and the prospects of individual companies. • Fixed income security risks include credit, liquidity, call, duration, and interest-rate risk. As interest rates rise, bond prices generally fall. • Loans can be difficult to value and highly illiquid; they are also subject to nonpayment, collateral, bankruptcy, default, extension, prepayment and insolvency risks. • Investments in high-yield ("junk") bonds can have a greater risk of price volatility illiquidity, and default than higher-rated debt securities. • Derivatives are generally more volatile and sensitive to changes in market or economic conditions than other securities; their risks include currency, leverage, liquidity, index, procing, and counterparty risk. • Foreign investments may be more volatile and less liquid than U.S. investments and are subject to the risk of currency fluctuations and adverse political and economic developments. • Privately placed, restricted (Rule 144A) securities may be more difficult to sell and price than other securities.
Floating Rate High Income Fund should not be considered an alternative to CDs or money market funds. This Fund is for investors who are looking to complement their traditional fixed income investments.
