FUND SUMMARY 
The investment seeks long-term capital appreciation. The fund invests primarily in equity securities of small, fast-growing companies that the manager believes offer innovative products, services or technologies to a rapidly-expanding marketplace. Although the fund may invest without limit in companies of any size, it focuses on companies that, at the time of purchase, have a total market capitalization not exceeding the highest market capitalization of companies included in the Russell 2500 Growth index. The fund can leverage, that is, borrow money to buy additional securities.
