Investment objective

To seek high current income while maintaining prospects for capital appreciation.

Principal investment strategy

"Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of debt and equity securities. The Fund may dynamically shift its investments from one asset class to another based on the investment manager's analysis of the best opportunities for the Funds portfolio in a given market. Income Focus in the Funds name refers to the Funds strategy of seeking to maximize income over a full market cycle by investing opportunistically across different asset classes, markets and sectors and utilizing income generation strategies. The equity securities in which the Fund invests consist primarily of common stocks, including those with dividend yields the investment manager believes are attractive, and convertible preferred securities. Debt securities include all varieties of fixed, floating and variable rate instruments, including secured and unsecured bonds, senior floating rate and term loans, mortgage-backed securities and other asset-backed securities, debentures, and shorter-term instruments.

The Fund may invest up to 40% of its assets in equity-linked notes (ELNs). ELNs are hybrid instruments that are specially designed to combine the characteristics of one or more reference securities (usually a common stock or broad market equity index) and a related equity derivative, such as a put or call option, in a single note form. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in debt securities that are rated below investment grade (also known as junk bonds), including a portion in defaulted securities. The Fund may also invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including developing or emerging markets, either directly or through depositary receipts. The Funds investments in bonds may include U.S. and foreign corporate debt, U.S. Treasuries and foreign government bonds.

Bonds may be denominated and issued in the local currency or in another currency. The Fund maintains the flexibility to invest in securities of companies from a variety of sectors, but from time to time, based on economic conditions, the Fund may have significant investments in particular sectors. The Fund may, from time to time, use a variety of equity-related derivatives and complex equity securities, which may include purchasing or selling call and put options on equity securities and equity security indices, for various purposes including enhancing Fund returns, increasing liquidity, gaining exposure to particular instruments in more efficient or less expensive ways and/or hedging risks relating to changes in certain equity markets. In addition, the Fund may use interest rate-related derivatives, and interest rate and/or bond futures contracts (including U.S.

Treasury futures contracts) for various purposes including enhancing Fund returns, increasing liquidity, gaining exposure to particular instruments in more efficient or less expensive ways and/or hedging risks relating to changes in interest rates. The Fund also may, from time to time, use currency-related derivatives, such as forward foreign currency exchange contracts and currency futures contracts to hedge currency risks, and credit-related derivatives, to hedge credit risks. The use of such derivative transactions may allow the Fund to obtain net long or net short exposures to selected markets, interest rates, countries or durations. The Fund's investment manager searches for undervalued or out-of-favor securities it believes offer opportunities for current income and significant growth potential.

In analyzing both corporate debt and equity securities, the investment manager considers a variety of factors, including: a securitys relative value based on such factors as anticipated cash flow, interest or dividend coverage, asset coverage, and earnings prospects; the experience and strength of the company's management; the company's changing financial condition and market recognition of the change; the company's sensitivity to changes in interest rates and business conditions; and the company's debt maturity schedules and borrowing requirements. When choosing investments for the Fund, the investment manager applies a ""bottom-up,"" value oriented, long-term approach, focusing on the market price of a company's securities relative to the investment manager's evaluation of the company's long-term earnings, asset value and cash flow potential.

The investment manager also considers a company's price/earnings ratio, profit margins and liquidation value. It generally performs independent analysis of the debt securities being considered for the Fund's portfolio, rather than relying principally on the ratings assigned by rating organizations."
