Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses are expenses indirectly incurred by the Fund as a result of its investments in one or more underlying
funds, including exchange-traded funds and money market funds. Because these costs are indirect, the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses in this fee table will not correlate to the expense ratio in the Funds financial statements, since
financial statements only include direct costs of the Fund and not the indirect costs of investing in the underlying funds.

DoubleLine Capital LP (the
Adviser
) has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and to reimburse the Fund for other ordinary
operating expenses to the extent necessary to limit ordinary operating expenses to an amount not to exceed 0.82% for Class I shares and 1.07% for Class N shares. Ordinary operating expenses exclude taxes, commissions, mark-ups, litigation expenses,
indemnification expenses, interest expenses, Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses, and any extraordinary expenses. These expense limitations are expected to apply until at least April 6, 2015, except that they may be terminated by the Board of Trustees
at any time. To the extent that the Adviser waives its investment advisory fee and/or reimburses the Fund for other ordinary operating expenses, it may seek reimbursement of a portion or all of such amounts at any time within three fiscal years
after the fiscal year in which such amounts were waived or reimbursed, subject to the expense limitation in place at the time such amounts were waived or reimbursed.

Example
This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost
of investing in other mutual funds.
This example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all your
shares at the end of those
-2-
periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Funds operating expenses remain the same (taking into account the Funds expense
limitation for the first year). Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

Portfolio Turnover
The
Fund incurs transaction costs when it buys and sells securities (or turns over its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable
account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Funds performance.
Principal
Investment Strategies
The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by active asset allocation among market sectors in the fixed income
universe. These sectors may include, for example, U.S. Government securities, corporate debt securities, mortgage and asset backed securities, foreign debt securities, including emerging market debt securities, loans, and high yield debt securities.
The Adviser has broad flexibility to use various investment strategies and to invest in a wide variety of fixed income instruments that the Adviser believes offer the potential for current income, capital appreciation, or both. The Fund is not
constrained by management against any index.
The Adviser expects to allocate the Funds assets in response to changing market, financial,
economic, and political factors and events that the Funds portfolio manager believes may affect the values of the Funds investments. The allocation of the Funds assets to different sectors and issuers will change over time,
sometimes rapidly, and the Fund may invest without limit in a single sector or a small number of sectors of the fixed income universe.
The Fund may
invest in securities of any credit quality. The Fund may invest without limit in securities rated below investment grade (securities rated
-3-
Ba1 or below by Moodys Investors Service, Inc. (
Moodys
) and BB+ or below by Standard & Poors Rating Services (
S&P
) and Fitch,
Inc. (
Fitch
)) or unrated securities judged by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. Fixed income instruments rated below investment grade, or unrated securities that are determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality,
are high yield, high risk bonds, commonly known as junk bonds.
The Fund may invest without limit in foreign securities, including emerging market
securities and securities denominated in foreign currencies, including the local currencies of emerging markets.
The Adviser seeks to manage the
Funds duration based on the Advisers view of, among other things, future interest rates and market conditions. There are no limits on the duration of the Funds portfolio. The Adviser retains broad discretion to modify the
Funds duration within a wide range, including the discretion to construct a portfolio of investments for the Fund with a negative duration. Duration is a measure of the expected life of a fixed income instrument that is used to determine the
sensitivity of a securitys price to changes in interest rates. Effective duration is a measure of the Funds portfolio duration adjusted for the anticipated effect of interest rate changes on bond and mortgage pre-payment rates.
Under normal circumstances, the Fund intends to invest principally in instruments the Adviser expects to produce current income. These might include,
by way of example, (i) securities or other income-producing instruments issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies, instrumentalities or sponsored corporations (including inflation-protected securities); (ii) corporate
obligations (including foreign hybrid securities); (iii) mortgage-backed securities (including commercial and residential mortgage-backed securities) and other asset-backed securities, including collateralized loan obligations, collateralized
debt obligations, collateralized mortgage obligations, government mortgage pass-through securities, multiclass pass-through securities, private mortgage pass-through securities, stripped mortgage securities (
e.g.
, interest-only and
principal-only securities), and inverse floaters; (iv) foreign securities (corporate and government), including emerging market securities; (v) bank loans and assignments and other fixed and floating rate loans (including, among others,
senior loans, second lien or other subordinated or unsecured fixed or floating rate loans, delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities); (vi) municipal securities and other debt obligations issued by states, local governments, and
government-sponsored entities, including their agencies, authorities, and instrumentalities; (vii) inflation-indexed bonds; (viii) convertible securities; (ix) preferred securities; (x) real
-4-
estate investment trust (REIT) securities; (xi) distressed and defaulted securities; (xii) payment-in-kind bonds; (xiii) zero-coupon bonds; (xiv) custodial receipts,
cash and cash equivalents; (xv) short-term, high quality investments, including, for example, commercial paper, bankers acceptances, certificates of deposit, bank time deposits, repurchase agreements, and investments in money market
mutual funds or similar pooled investments; and (xvi) other instruments bearing fixed, floating, or variable interest rates of any maturity. The Fund may invest in any level of the capital structure of an issuer of mortgage-backed or
asset-backed securities, including the equity or first loss tranche.
The Fund also may enter into derivatives transactions and other
instruments of any kind for hedging purposes or otherwise to gain, or reduce, long or short exposure to one or more asset classes or issuers. The Fund also may use derivatives transactions with the purpose or effect of creating investment leverage.
The Adviser may seek to manage the
dollar-weighted
average effective duration of the Funds portfolio through the use of derivatives and other instruments (including, among others, Treasury futures,
interest rate swaps, and options, including options on swap agreements (swaptions)). The Fund may incur costs in implementing duration management strategies, and there can be no assurance that the Fund will engage in duration management
strategies or that any duration management strategy employed by the Fund will be successful. The Fund may enter into currency-related transactions, including forward exchange contracts and futures contracts. The Fund may, but will not necessarily,
enter into foreign currency exchange transactions to hedge against currency exposure in its portfolio.
The Fund may implement short positions,
including through the use of derivative instruments, such as swaps or futures, or through short sales of instruments that are eligible investments for the Fund. For example, the Fund may enter into a futures contract pursuant to which it agrees to
sell an asset (that it does not currently own) at a specified price in the future in anticipation that the assets value will decrease between the time the position is established and the agreed date of sale.
The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales, either to earn additional
return or to hedge existing investments. The Fund may seek to obtain market exposure to the securities in which it primarily invests by entering into a series of purchase and sale contracts or by using other investment techniques (such as buy backs
or dollar rolls).
-5-
The Fund may invest some of its assets in other investment companies, such as, for example, other open-end or
closed-end investment companies, exchange-traded funds and domestic or foreign private investment vehicles, including investment companies sponsored or managed by the Adviser and its affiliates.
Portfolio securities may be sold at any time. By way of example, sales may occur when the Funds portfolio manager determines to take advantage of what the
portfolio manager considers to be a better investment opportunity, when the portfolio manager believes the portfolio securities no longer represent relatively attractive investment opportunities, when the portfolio manager perceives deterioration in
the credit fundamentals of the issuer, or when the individual security has reached the portfolio managers sell target.
Principal Risks
Since the Fund will hold investments with fluctuating market prices, the value of the Funds shares will vary as its portfolio investments
increase or decrease in value. Therefore, the value of your investment in the Fund could go down as well as up. You can lose money by investing in the Fund.
The principal risks affecting the Fund that can cause a decline in value are:
|
|
affiliated fund risk:
the risk that, due to its own financial interest or other business considerations, the Adviser may choose to invest a portion
of the Funds assets in investment companies sponsored or managed by the Adviser or its affiliates in lieu of investments by the Fund directly in portfolio securities, or may choose to invest in such investment companies over investment
companies sponsored or managed by others. Similarly, the Adviser may delay or decide against the sale of interests held by the Fund in investment companies sponsored or managed by the Adviser or its affiliates.
|
|
|
asset allocation risk:
the risk that the Funds investment performance may depend, at least in part, on how its assets are allocated and
reallocated among asset classes, sectors and/or underlying funds and that such allocation will focus on asset classes, sectors, underlying funds, or investments that perform poorly or underperform other asset classes, sectors, underlying funds, or
available investments.
|
-6-
|
|
asset-backed securities investment risk:
the risk that borrowers may default on the obligations that underlie the asset-backed security and that,
during periods of falling interest rates, asset-backed securities may be called or prepaid, which may result in the Fund having to reinvest proceeds in other investments at a lower interest rate, and the risk that the impairment of the value of the
collateral underlying a security in which the Fund invests (due, for example, to non-payment of loans) will result in a reduction in the value of the security.
|
|
|
cash position risk:
to the extent that the Fund holds assets in cash, cash equivalents, and other short-term investments, the ability of the Fund
to meet its objective may be limited.
|
|
|
counterparty risk:
the risk that the Fund will be subject to credit risk with respect to the counterparties to the derivative contracts and other
instruments entered into directly by the Fund or held by special purpose or structured vehicles in which the Fund invests. Subject to certain limitations for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Fund is not subject to any limit with respect to the
number of transactions it can enter into with a single counterparty. To the extent that the Fund enters into multiple transactions with a single or a small set of counterparties, it will be subject to increased counterparty risk.
|
|
¡
|
|
credit risk:
the risk that an issuer or counterparty will fail to pay its obligations to the Fund when they are due. As a result, the Funds
income might be reduced, the value of the Funds investment might fall, and/or the Fund could lose the entire amount of its investment. Changes in the financial condition of an issuer or counterparty, changes in specific economic, social or
political conditions that affect a particular type of security or other instrument or an issuer, and changes in economic, social or political conditions generally can increase the risk of default by an issuer or counterparty, which can affect a
securitys or other instruments credit quality or value and an issuers or counterpartys ability to pay interest and principal when due. The values of lower-quality debt securities (commonly known as junk bonds), including
floating rate loans, tend to be particularly sensitive to these changes. The values of securities also may decline for a number of other reasons that relate directly to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced
demand for the issuers goods and services, as well as
|
-7-
|
the historical and prospective earnings of the issuer and the value of its assets.
|
|
¡
|
|
extension risk:
the risk that if interest rates rise, repayments of principal on certain debt securities, including, but not limited to, floating
rate loans and mortgage-related securities, may occur at a slower rate than expected and the expected maturity of those securities could lengthen as a result. Securities that are subject to extension risk generally have a greater potential for loss
when prevailing interest rates rise, which could cause their values to fall sharply.
|
|
¡
|
|
interest rate risk:
the risk that debt securities will decline in value because of changes in interest rates. The value of a security with a longer
duration (whether positive or negative) will be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than a similar security with a shorter duration. The value of a fixed-income security with positive duration will generally decline if interest rates
increase, whereas the value of a security with negative duration will generally decline if interest rates decrease. Inverse floaters, interest-only and principal-only securities are especially sensitive to interest rate changes, which can affect not
only their prices but can also change the income flows and repayment assumptions about those investments.
|
|
|
defaulted securities risk:
the risk of the uncertainty of repayment of defaulted securities and obligations of distressed issuers.
|
|
|
derivatives risk:
the risk that an investment in derivatives will not perform as anticipated by the Adviser, cannot be closed out at a favorable
time or price, or will increase the Funds volatility; that derivatives may create investment leverage; that, when a derivative is used as a substitute for or alternative to a direct cash investment, the transaction may not provide a return
that corresponds precisely with that of the cash investment; or that, when used for hedging purposes, derivatives will not provide the anticipated protection, causing the Fund to lose money on both the derivatives transaction and the exposure the
Fund sought to hedge.
|
|
|
emerging market country risk:
the risk that investing in emerging markets will be subject to greater political and economic instability, greater
volatility in currency exchange rates, less developed securities markets, possible trade barriers, currency transfer restrictions, a
|
-8-
|
more limited number of potential buyers, an emerging market countrys dependence on revenue from particular commodities or international aid, less governmental supervision and regulation,
unavailability of currency hedging techniques, differences in auditing and financial reporting standards, and less developed legal systems than in many more developed countries.
|
|
|
focused investment risk:
a Fund that invests a substantial portion of its assets in a particular market, industry, group of industries, country,
region, group of countries, asset class or sector generally is subject to greater risk than a Fund that invests in a more diverse investment portfolio. In addition, the value of such a Fund is more susceptible to any single economic, market,
political or regulatory occurrence affecting, for example, that particular market, industry, region or sector. This is because, for example, issuers in a particular market, industry, region or sector often react similarly to specific economic,
market, regulatory, or political developments.
|
|
|
foreign currency risk:
the risk that fluctuations in exchange rates may adversely affect the value of the Funds investments denominated in
foreign currencies.
|
|
|
foreign investing risk:
the risk that the Funds investments will be affected by political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in
domestic investments. In addition, if the Fund buys securities denominated in a foreign currency, there are special risks such as changes in currency exchange rates and the risk that a foreign government could regulate or restrict foreign exchange
transactions. In addition, to the extent that investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund.
|
|
|
inflation-indexed bond risk:
the risk that such bonds will change in value in response to actual or anticipated changes in inflation rates, in a
manner unanticipated by the Funds portfolio management team or investors generally. Inflation-indexed bonds are subject to debt securities risks.
|
|
|
investment company and exchange-traded fund risk:
the risk that an investment company or other pooled investment vehicle, including any ETF, in
which the Fund invests will not achieve its investment objective or execute its investment strategies effectively or that large purchase or redemption activity by shareholders of such an investment company
|
-9-
|
might negatively affect the value of the investment companys shares. The Fund must pay its
pro rata
portion of an investment companys fees and expenses.
|
|
|
junk bond risk:
the risk that these bonds have a higher degree of default risk and may be less liquid and subject to greater price volatility than
investment grade bonds.
|
|
|
large shareholder risk:
the risk that certain account holders, including funds or accounts over which the Adviser has investment discretion, may
from time to time own or control a significant percentage of the Funds shares. The Fund is subject to the risk that a redemption by those shareholders of all or a portion of their Fund shares, including as a result of an asset allocation
decision made by the Adviser, will adversely affect the Funds performance if it is forced to sell portfolio securities or invest cash when it would not otherwise do so. Redemptions of a large number of shares may affect the liquidity of the
Funds portfolio, increase the Funds transaction costs, and accelerate the realization of taxable income and/or gains to shareholders.
|
|
|
leveraging risk:
the risk that certain investments by the Fund involving leverage may have the effect of increasing the volatility of the
Funds portfolio, and the risk of loss in excess of invested capital.
|
|
|
limited operating history risk:
the risk that a newly formed fund has no or a limited operating history to evaluate and may not attract sufficient
assets to achieve or maximize investment and operational efficiencies.
|
|
|
liquidity risk:
the risk that the Fund may be unable to sell a portfolio investment at a desirable time or at the value the Fund has placed on the
investment. Illiquidity may be the result of, for example, low trading volume, lack of a market maker, or contractual or legal restrictions that limit or prevent the Fund from selling securities or closing derivative positions. The values of
illiquid investments are often more volatile than the values of more liquid investments. It may be more difficult for the Fund to determine a fair value of an illiquid investment than that of a more liquid comparable investment.
|
|
|
loan risk:
includes the risk that (i) if the Fund holds a loan through another financial institution, or relies on a financial institution to
administer the loan, its receipt of principal and interest on the loan may be subject to the credit risk of that financial institution; (ii) it is possible that any collateral securing a loan may be insufficient or
|
-10-
|
unavailable to the Fund, because, for example, the value of the collateral securing a loan can decline, be insufficient to meet the obligations of the borrower, or be difficult to liquidate, and
that the Funds rights to collateral may be limited by bankruptcy or insolvency laws; (iii) investments in highly leveraged loans or loans of stressed, distressed, or defaulted issuers may be subject to significant credit and liquidity risk;
(iv) a bankruptcy or other court proceeding could delay or limit the ability of the Fund to collect the principal and interest payments on that borrowers loans or adversely affect the Funds rights in collateral relating to a loan; (v)
there may be limited public information available regarding the loan; (vi) the use of a particular interest rate benchmark, such as LIBOR, may limit the Funds ability to achieve a net return to shareholders that consistently approximates the
average published Prime Rate of U.S. banks; (vii) the prices of certain floating rate loans that include a feature that prevents their interest rates from adjusting below a specified minimum level may be more sensitive to changes in interest rates
should short-term interest rates rise but remain below the applicable minimum level; (viii) if a borrower fails to comply with various restrictive covenants that are typically in loan agreements, the borrower may default in payment of the loan; (ix)
the Funds investments in senior loans may be subject to increased liquidity and valuation risks, risks associated with collateral impairment or access, and risks associated with investing in unsecured loans; (x) opportunities to invest in
loans or certain types of loans, such as senior loans, may be limited; (xi) transactions in loans may settle on a delayed basis, and the Fund may not receive the proceeds from the sale of a loan for a substantial period of time after the sale; and
(xii) loans may be difficult to value and may be illiquid, which may adversely affect an investment in the Fund. In addition, equity securities, including those acquired by the Fund in connection with a loan (
e.g.,
as part of an instrument
combining a loan and equity securities), are subject to market risks and the risks of changes to the financial condition of the issuer, and fluctuations in value. The Fund may invest in loans directly or by investing in the DoubleLine Floating Rate
Fund and will be subject to the risks described above accordingly.
|
|
|
market risk:
the risk that the overall market will perform poorly or that the returns from the securities in which the Fund invests will
underperform returns from the general securities markets or other types of investments. Securities markets may, in response to governmental actions or intervention, economic or market developments, or other external factors, experience periods of
high volatility and reduced liquidity. During those periods, the Fund may
|
-11-
|
experience high levels of shareholder redemptions, and may have to sell securities at times when they would otherwise not do so, and potentially at unfavorable prices. Certain securities may be
difficult to value during such periods. These risks may be heightened for fixed income securities due to the current historically low interest rate environment.
|
|
|
mortgage-backed securities risk:
the risk that borrowers may default on their mortgage obligations or the guarantees underlying the mortgage-backed
securities will default or otherwise fail and that, during periods of falling interest rates, mortgage-backed securities will be called or prepaid, which may result in the Fund having to reinvest proceeds in other investments at a lower interest
rate. During periods of rising interest rates, the average life of a mortgage-backed security may extend, which may lock in a below-market interest rate, increase the securitys duration, and reduce the value of the security. Enforcing rights
against the underlying assets or collateral may be difficult, or the underlying assets or collateral may be insufficient if the issuer defaults. The values of certain types of mortgage-backed securities, such as inverse floaters and interest-only
and principal-only securities, may be extremely sensitive to changes in interest rates and prepayment rates.
|
|
|
portfolio management risk:
the risk that an investment strategy may fail to produce the intended results or that the securities held by the Fund
will underperform other comparable funds because of the portfolio managers choice of investments.
|
|
|
portfolio turnover risk:
the risk that frequent purchases and sales of portfolio securities may result in higher Fund expenses and may result in
larger distributions of taxable capital gains to investors as compared to a fund that trades less frequently.
|
|
|
preferred securities risk:
the risk that: (i) certain preferred stocks contain provisions that allow an issuer under certain conditions to skip or
defer distributions; (ii) preferred stocks may be subject to redemption, including at the issuers call, and, in the event of redemption, the Fund may not be able to reinvest the proceeds at comparable or favorable rates of return; (iii)
preferred stocks are generally subordinated to bonds and other debt securities in an issuers capital structure in terms of priority for corporate income and liquidation payments; and (iv) preferred stocks may trade less
|
-12-
|
frequently and in a more limited volume and may be subject to more abrupt or erratic price movements than many other securities.
|
|
|
prepayment risk:
the risk that the issuer of a debt security, including floating rate loans and mortgage-related securities, repays all or a
portion of the principal prior to the securitys maturity. In times of declining interest rates, this may result in a portion of the Funds higher yielding securities being pre-paid and the Fund being unable to re-invest the proceeds in an
investment with as great a yield. Prepayments can therefore result in lower yields to shareholders of the Fund. Interest-only and principal-only securities are especially sensitive to interest rate changes, which can affect not only their prices but
can also change the income flows and repayment assumptions about those investments.
|
|
|
price volatility risk:
the risk that the value of the Funds investment portfolio will change, potentially frequently and in large amounts, as
the prices of its investments go up or down.
|
|
|
real estate risk:
the risk that real estate-related investments may decline in value as a result of factors affecting the real estate industry,
such as the supply of real property in certain markets, changes in zoning laws, delays in completion of construction, changes in real estate values, changes in property taxes, levels of occupancy, and local and regional market conditions. Mortgage
REITs are exposed to the risks specific to the real estate market as well as the risks that relate specifically to the way in which mortgage REITs are organized and operated. Mortgage REITs receive principal and interest payments from the owners of
the mortgaged properties. Accordingly, mortgage REITs are subject to the credit risk of the borrowers to whom they extend credit and are subject to the risks described above under mortgage-backed securities risk and prepayment
risk. Mortgage REITs are also subject to significant interest rate risk. Mortgage REITs typically use leverage and many are highly leveraged, which exposes them to the risks of leverage. Leverage risk refers to the risk that leverage created
from borrowing may impair a mortgage REITs liquidity, cause it to liquidate positions at an unfavorable time and increase the volatility of the values of securities issued by the mortgage REIT. The use of leverage may not be advantageous to a
mortgage REIT. To the extent that a mortgage REIT incurs significant leverage, it may incur substantial losses if its borrowing costs increase or if the assets it purchases with leverage decrease in value.
|
-13-
|
|
securities or sector selection risk:
the risk that the securities held by the Fund will underperform securities held in other funds investing in
similar asset classes or comparable benchmarks because of the portfolio managers choice of securities or sectors for investment. To the extent the Fund focuses or concentrates its investments in a particular sector or related sectors, the Fund
will be more susceptible to events or factors affecting companies in that sector or related sectors. For example, the values of securities of companies in the same or related sectors may be negatively affected by the common characteristics they
share, the common business risks to which they are subject, common regulatory burdens, or regulatory changes that affect them similarly. Such characteristics, risks, burdens or changes include, but are not limited to, changes in governmental
regulation, inflation or deflation, rising or falling interest rates, competition from new entrants, and other economic, market, political or other developments specific to that sector or related sectors.
|
|
|
short sale risk:
the risk that an instrument the Fund has sold short increases in value.
|
|
|
sovereign debt obligations risk:
the risk that investments in countries government debt obligations of sovereign governments may lose value
due to inability of the government entitys willingness or ability to repay principal and interest. Sovereign governments may default on their debt obligations for a number of reasons, including social, political, economic and diplomatic
changes in countries issuing sovereign debt. The Fund may have limited (or no) recourse in the event of a default because bankruptcy, moratorium and other similar laws applicable to issuers of sovereign debt obligations may be substantially
different from those applicable to private issuers and any recourse may be subject to the political climate in the relevant country. Holders of certain foreign government debt securities may be requested to participate in the restructuring of
such obligations and to extend further loans to their issuers. There can be no assurance that the foreign government debt securities in which the Fund may invest will not be subject to similar restructuring arrangements or to requests for new
credit, which may adversely affect the Funds holdings.
|
|
|
U.S. Government securities risk:
the risk that debt securities issued or guaranteed by certain U.S. Government agencies, instrumentalities, and
sponsored enterprises are not supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, and so involve credit risk greater than investments in other types of U.S. Government securities.

The minimum investment may be modified for certain financial intermediaries that submit trades on behalf of underlying
investors. Certain financial intermediaries also may have their own investment minimums, which may differ from the Funds minimums, and may be waived at the intermediaries discretion. The Fund reserves the right to change or waive the
minimum initial and subsequent investment amounts without prior notice or to waive the minimum investment amounts for certain intermediaries or individual investors in its discretion.
Tax Information
The Funds distributions are generally taxable to you as ordinary income or capital
gains, unless you are investing through a tax-advantaged arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or individual retirement account. If you invest through such tax-advantaged arrangements, you may be taxed later upon withdrawal from those arrangements.
Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries
If you purchase shares of the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund, the Adviser, and the Funds distributor or any of their affiliates may pay the financial
intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the financial intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your individual
salesperson or visit your financial intermediarys website for more information.
