Exchanges
An exchange is when you sell shares of one Fund and use the proceeds to purchase shares of another Fund. Investors may make exchanges on any business day. Exchange requests will be processed at the NAV next determined after your exchange order is received in good order.
All exchange requests must be received by a Fund’s transfer agent prior to the cut-off time of the Fund you are exchanging out of or the Fund you are exchanging into, whichever is earlier, to be processed at that day’s NAV.

Tax Information
Each exchange or redemption of fund shares may be a taxable event to you. For tax purposes, an exchange of fund shares into a different fund is treated the same as a redemption. You should consider the tax consequences of any redemption or exchange before making such a request. You should consider the tax consequences of redemptions if you invest in the funds through a tax-qualified retirement plan.
You could lose money by investing in the Fund. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it cannot guarantee it will do so. An investment in the Fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The Fund’s sponsor has no legal obligation to provide financial support to the Fund, and you should not expect that the sponsor will provide financial support to the Fund at any time.
