Market Risk - The value of the Fund’s investments may change, and possibly decrease, perhaps severely, in response to fluctuations in the stock markets generally.

Focused Portfolio Risk - The Fund is "non-diversified" and invests in the securities of a limited number of issuers. As a result, changes in the market value of a single issuer could cause greater fluctuations in the value of the Fund’s shares than would occur in a more diversified fund.

Foreign (Non-U.S.) Risk - This is the risk that the value of the Fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers will be affected adversely by foreign economic, social and political conditions and developments or by the application of foreign legal, regulatory, accounting and auditing standards or foreign taxation policies or by currency fluctuations and controls. The risks to the Fund and, therefore, to your investment in the Fund of investing in foreign securities include expropriation, settlement difficulties, market illiquidity and higher transaction costs. The prices of foreign securities may move in a different direction than the prices of U.S. securities. In addition, the prices of foreign securities may be more volatile than the prices of U.S. securities.

Currency Risk - This refers to the risk that securities which trade or are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar may be affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. An increase in the strength of the U.S. Dollar relative to a foreign currency will generally cause the U.S. Dollar value of an investment denominated in that currency to decline. Currency risk may be hedged or unhedged. Unhedged currency exposure may result in gains or losses as a result of change in the relationship between the U.S. Dollar and the respective foreign currency.

Risks of a Managed Fund - Performance of individual securities can vary widely. The investment decisions of the Fund’s investment adviser may cause the Fund to underperform benchmark indices. The Fund may also underperform other mutual funds with similar investment strategies. The Fund’s investment adviser may be incorrect in an assessment of a particular industry or company, or the investment adviser may not buy chosen securities at the lowest possible prices or sell securities at the highest possible prices. As with any mutual fund investment, there can be no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its investment goals.

Other Investment Information - Ordinarily, the Fund’s portfolio will be invested primarily in common stocks. However, the Fund is not required to be fully invested in common stocks and, in fact, usually maintains certain cash reserves. Depending upon market conditions, cash reserves may be a significant percentage of the Fund’s net assets. The Fund usually invests its cash reserves principally in U. S. Government securities.

Portfolio Turnover Rate - The portfolio turnover rate for the Fund is included in the Financial Highlights section of the prospectus. Normally, the Fund purchases and holds securities for sufficient periods to realize long-term capital appreciation and to qualify for long-term capital gain tax treatment. This means that the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate is usually lower than many other funds. Portfolio turnover, however, will not be a limiting factor when management deems changes appropriate and the Fund’s portfolio turnover in such cases may exceed 50%. A higher rate of portfolio turnover increases brokerage and other expenses and may affect the Fund’s returns. A higher portfolio turnover rate also may result in the realization of net short-term capital gains, which, when distributed, are taxable to the Fund’s shareholders
