Class I Shares. Class I shares are available for purchase by the following entities:

 

 

 

Institutional investors, including companies, foundations, trusts and endowments, and other entities determined by Lord Abbett Distributor to be institutional investors, making an initial minimum investment of at least $1 million;

 

 

 

 

Retirement and benefit plans investing directly or through an intermediary, provided that in the case of an intermediary, the intermediary has entered into a special arrangement with the Fund and/or Lord Abbett Distributor specifically for such purchases;




 

 

 

 

Registered investment advisers investing on behalf of their advisory clients, provided that in the case of a registered investment adviser that is also a registered broker-dealer, the firm has not entered into any agreement or arrangement whereby Lord Abbett makes payments to the firm out of its own resources for various services, such as marketing support, training and education activities, and other services for which Lord Abbett may make such revenue sharing payments to the firm; and

 

 

 

 

Bank trust departments and trust companies purchasing shares for their clients, provided that the bank or trust company (and its trading agent, if any) has entered into a special arrangement with the Fund and/or Lord Abbett Distributor specifically for such purchases.

 

 

 

Class I shares also are available for purchase by each registered investment company within the Lord Abbett Family of Funds that operates as a fund of funds and, at the discretion of Lord Abbett Distributor, other registered investment companies that are not affiliated with Lord Abbett and operate as funds of funds.

 

 

 

Shareholders who held Class I shares on July 9, 2010 may continue to hold, purchase, exchange, and redeem Class I shares, provided that there has been no change in the registration of the account since that date.

 

 

 

Financial intermediaries should contact Lord Abbett Distributor to determine whether the financial intermediary may be eligible for such purchases.
