OBJECTIVE

  |  The Municipal Money Market Fund Seeks current income exempt from regular federal income tax, while preserving capital and liquidity.

PRINCIPAL STRATEGIES

  |  We actively manage a portfolio of high-quality, short-term municipal obligations that are issued by or on behalf of states, territories and possessions of the U.S. or their political subdivisions and financing authorities. These investments may have fixed, floating, or variable rates of interest. We will only purchase First Tier securities. We may invest 25% or more of the Fund's total assets in industrial development bonds and in participation interests in these securities.

We invest principally in municipal obligations that pay interest exempt from regular federal income tax, but not necessarily federal AMT. The Fund attempts to invest exclusively in these securities however, it is possible that the Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in high-quality, short-term money market instruments that pay interest subject to federal income tax.

Our security selection is based on several factors, including credit quality, yield and maturity, while taking into account the Fund's overall level of liquidity and average maturity.

The Fund may temporarily deviate from its principal investment strategies by investing its assets in high-quality, short-term money market instruments that pay interest subject to federal income tax. Circumstances in which the Fund may invest in these securities include, but are not limited to, periods of low or no availability of eligible municipal obligations or in order to manage liquidity. If the Fund invests in securities, it may distribute taxable income.

A portion of the Fund's income may be subject to federal, state and/or local income taxes or the alternative minimum tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.
