The Fund invests, under normal conditions, primarily in common stocks of large- and mid-capitalization issuers that are, in the view of the Fund’s investment adviser, Madison Asset Management, LLC ("Madison"), selling at a reasonable price in relation to their long-term earnings growth rates. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will seek to generate current earnings from option premiums by writing (selling) covered call options on a substantial portion of its portfolio securities. The Fund seeks to produce a high level of current income and current gains generated from option writing premiums and, to a lesser extent, from dividends.

Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets in common stocks, with at least 65% of this amount invested in common stocks of large capitalization issuers that meet the Fund’s selection criteria. In calculating compliance with these percentages, the Fund will "look through" to the characteristics of the underlying holdings of any exchange traded funds ("ETFs") held by the Fund. The Fund may invest the remainder of its common stock investments in companies that meet the Fund’s selection criteria but whose market capitalization is considered to be middle sized or “mid-cap” (generally, stocks with a market capitalization similar to those companies in the Russell Midcap® Index). In addition, the

Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets in common stocks, with at least 65% of this amount invested in common stocks of large capitalization issuers that meet the Fund’s selection criteria.In addition, the Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in foreign securities, including American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) and emerging market securities. Although Madison believes that, under normal conditions, at least 80% of the Fund will be invested in equity securities, high levels of new investment inflow can lead to periods of higher cash levels which are invested in due course as appropriate opportunities are identified.

Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in foreign securities, including American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) and emerging market securities. Madison will allocate the Fund’s assets among stocks in sectors of the economy based upon Madison’s views on forward earnings growth rates, adjusted to reflect Madison’s views on economic and market conditions and sector risk factors. In general, Madison focuses its investments in the information technology, consumer discretionary, health care and financials sectors, and may invest up to 35% of the Fund’s net assets in any one such sector. The Fund generally holds 30-60 individual equity and investment company securities, including ETFs and Unit Investment Trusts ("UITs"), in its portfolio at any given time. This reflects Madison's belief that your money should be invested in Madison's top investment ideas, and that focusing on Madison's highest conviction investment ideas is the best way to achieve the Fund’s investment objective.

Although Madison believes that, under normal conditions, at least 80% of the Fund will be invested in equity securities, high levels of new investment inflow can lead to periods of higher cash levels which are invested in due course as appropriate opportunities are identified. In addition, during periods in which stock markets advance, option assignment activity can rise significantly resulting in the exercise of options and the calling away of Fund portfolio securities. Madison believes that reinvesting such sale proceeds should be done carefully and opportunistically such that cash level may remain elevated for relatively short periods of time until appropriate reinvestment opportunities are identified. Additionally, during periods when Madison believes the stock markets in general are overvalued or when there is perceived domestic or global economic or political risk or when investments in equity securities bear an above average risk of loss, Madison will delay investment of some or all of the Fund’s cash until such periods have ended. Thus, in Madison’s discretion, the Fund’s cash may be held for “temporary defensive purposes,” and might represent a material percentage of the Fund’s portfolio. These periods may last for a few weeks or even for a few months, until more attractive market conditions exist.

The Fund will employ an option strategy of writing covered call options on a substantial portion of the common stocks in its portfolio. The extent of option writing activity will depend upon market conditions and Madison’s ongoing assessment of the attractiveness of writing call options on the Fund’s stock holdings. In addition to providing income, covered call writing helps to reduce the volatility (and risk profile) of the Fund by providing downside protection.

In addition to its covered call strategy, the Fund may, to a lesser extent (not more than 20% of its net assets), pursue an option strategy that includes the writing of both put options and call options on certain of the common stocks in the Fund’s portfolio. To seek to offset some of the risk of a larger potential decline in the event the overall stock market has a sizable short-term or intermediate-term decline, the Fund may, to a limited extent (not more than 2% of its total assets) purchase put options or put option debit spreads (where another put option at a lower strike price is sold to offset the cost of the first put option) on broad-based securities indices (such as the S&P 500, S&P MidCap 400 or other indices deemed suitable) or certain ETFs that trade like common stocks but represent such market indices. To seek to offset some of the risk of a larger potential decline in an individual holding due to a binary short term company specific event, the Fund may, to a limited extent (not more than 2% of its total assets) purchase put options on individual equity holdings.

The Fund’s investment strategy reflects Madison’s general “Participate and Protect®” investment philosophy. Madison’s expectation is that investors in the Fund will participate in market appreciation during bull markets and experience something less than full participation during bear markets compared with investors in portfolios holding more speculative and volatile securities; therefore, this investment philosophy is intended to represent a conservative investment strategy. There is no assurance that Madison’s expectations regarding this investment strategy will be realized.

Although the Fund expects to pursue its investment objectives utilizing its principal investment strategies regardless of market conditions, the Fund may invest up to 100% in cash, money market funds, and/or money market instruments. To the extent the Fund engages in this temporary defensive position, the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objectives may be diminished.
