Past performance is no assurance of future results. Investment return
and market value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate. Shares,
when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. There can
be no assurance that the Fund’s investment objectives will be achieved.
The Fund may not be appropriate for all investors.

Principal Risk Factors: The Fund invests in securities of non-U.S.
issuers which are subject to higher volatility than securities of U.S.
issuers. Risks may be heightened for securities of companies located in,
or with significant operations in, emerging market countries. Because
the Fund invests in non-U.S. securities, you may lose money if the local
currency of a non-U.S. market depreciates against the U.S. dollar.

The Fund invests in non-investment grade debt instruments, commonly
referred to as “high-yield securities”. High yield securities are
subject to greater market fluctuations and risk of loss than securities
with higher ratings. Lower-quality debt tends to be less liquid than
higher-quality debt.

The debt securities in which the Fund invests are subject to certain
risks, including issuer risk, reinvestment risk, prepayment risk, credit
risk, and interest rate risk. Issuer risk is the risk that the value of
fixed-income securities may decline for a number of reasons which
directly relate to the issuer. Reinvestment risk is the risk that income
from the Fund’s portfolio will decline if the Fund invests the proceeds
from matured, traded or called bonds at market interest rates that are
below the Fund portfolio’s current earnings rate. Prepayment risk is the
risk that, upon a prepayment, the actual outstanding debt on which the
Fund derives interest income will be reduced. Credit risk is the risk
that an issuer of a security will be unable or unwilling to make
dividend, interest and/or principal payments when due and that the value
of a security may decline as a result. Interest rate risk is the risk
that fixed-income securities will decline in value because of changes in
market interest rates.

Use of leverage can result in additional risk and cost, and can magnify
the effect of any losses.

The risks of investing in the Fund are spelled out in the shareholder
reports and other regulatory filings.
