The Short–Intermediate Income Fund's (inception 12/88) average annual total returns (Institutional Class shares) for the one, five, and ten-year periods ended December 31, 2011 were 2.1%, 5.2%, and 4.5%, respectively. These returns assume redemption at the end of each period and reinvestment of dividends. These performance numbers reflect the deduction of the Fund's annual operating expenses. Annual operating expenses for the Fund, as stated in the most recent Prospectus are 0.65% (Institutional Class shares) and 0.84% (estimated for Investor Class shares) of the Fund's net assets.

The investment return and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.
