div style="margin-top:6pt; text-align:justify; width:246pt; line-height:11.5pt;"Under normal market conditions, the fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any amounts for borrowing, in a broad range of fixed income securities. “Fixed Income Securities” include corporate bonds, notes, domestic and foreign government securities (including securities issued by government agencies), mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, asset-backed securities, municipal securities, and short-term obligations. The fund does not limit itself to a particular maturity range but will normally seek to maintain a dollar weighted duration between 4 to 8 years. Duration is a measure of the expected life of a fixed income security that is used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. For example, the value of a portfolio of fixed income securities with an average duration of four years would generally be expected to decline by approximately 4% if interest rates rose by one percentage point. /div div style="margin-top:6pt; text-align:justify; width:246pt; line-height:11.5pt;"The fund invests primarily in investment grade securities. However, it may invest up to 40% of its portfolio in securities rated below investment grade (also known as “junk bonds”). The fund may also enter into various exchange-traded and over-the-counter derivative transactions for both hedging and non-hedging purposes, including for purposes of enhancing returns. These derivative transactions include futures, options, swaps, foreign currency futures and forwards. In particular, the fund may use interest rate swaps, credit default swaps (including buying and selling credit default swaps on individual securities and/or baskets of securities), options (including options on credit default swaps and options on futures) and futures contracts to a significant extent, although the amounts invested in these instruments may change from time to time. For the purposes of compliance with the fund’s 80% investment policy, the fund’s derivative positions are valued at their market value. /div
