The performance data quoted represents past performance, and is no guarantee of future results. Your returns and the principal value of your investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. Click here for performance current to the most recent month-end or call 1 800 842-2242.

  1. Performance figures include the reinvestment of all dividends and any capital gains distribution.

    From November 30, 2007 on, the since inception performance shown is computed from the inception date of the fund/account (the date on which the fund/account became publicly available). Previously, since inception performance for this fund/account was computed from the net asset value per share on the day prior to the inception date. The since inception performance for the International Equity, Equity Index, Growth and Income, Large-Cap Growth, Social Choice Equity, Bond, Bond Plus II, High-Yield II, Short-Term Bond II, Tax-Exempt Bond II and Money Market funds were not impacted by this change.

    The inception date for the Lifecycle Retirement Income fund is November 30, 2007. Year-to-date performance is calculated from the inception date. The Since Inception values presented for this fund are cumulative values and not an average annualized total return.
  2. The fund's adviser does not receive a management fee for its services to the Managed Allocation Fund (Retail Fund) or Managed Allocation Fund II (Institutional Fund - Retail Class). The Managed Allocation Fund II only has contracted to reimburse the funds for their direct expenses through April 30, 2008. Shareholders indirectly bear their pro rata share of the fees and expenses of the funds in which the Managed Allocation and Managed Allocation Fund II invests.
  3. This Fund strives to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share. However, an investment in this fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency, and there's no guarantee that we will be able to maintain a stable $1.00 per share net asset value. It is possible to lose money in this fund.
    The current yield more closely reflects the fund's current earnings than does the total return.
* Shareholders of these Funds approved a new investment management agreement, effective February 1, 2006. The expenses in this chart have been restated to show what the expenses would be under the new investment management agreement if they had been in effect during the entire fiscal year ended September 30, 2006. The net annual expense ratio represents expenses after reimbursement and waivers, while the gross annual expense ratio represents expenses without any reimbursements and waivers. The expense reimbursements and waiver agreements are contractual and are currently generally expected to continue through at least April 30, 2008. Without these waivers and reimbursements, the Fund expenses would be higher and their performance would have been lower.
** The fund's Institutional Class began operations on July 1, 1999. Performance shown prior to the inception of the Retail Class is based on the performance of the fund's Institutional Class. Performance has not been restated to reflect the higher expenses of the Retail Class. If the expense differential had been reflected, performance for these periods would have been lower.
