1. The section titled “How the Portfolio Manager Decides What Securities To Buy or Sell" on page 3 in the Prospectus is deleted in its entirety and is replaced with the following:
 

HOW THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER DECIDES WHAT SECURITIES TO BUY OR SELL. In selecting securities to buy or sell the portfolio manager looks for growth companies with stock prices that she believes are reasonable in relation to overall stock market valuations. In seeking broad diversification of the Fund's portfolio among industries and market sectors, the portfolio manager focuses on a number of factors that may vary in particular cases and over time. Currently, the portfolio manager looks for:
 

Ÿ     

companies in business areas that have above-average growth potential,


Ÿ     

companies with growth rates that the portfolio manager believes are sustainable over time,


Ÿ     

stocks with reasonable valuations relative to their growth potential.


     The Fund may sell the stocks of companies that the portfolio manager believes no longer meet the above criteria.

2. The section titled “Portfolio Manager” on page 14 in the Prospectus is deleted in its entirety and is replaced with the following:
