Prospectus

Going forward, the fund's performance will be compared to Standard & Poor's/Loan Syndications and Trading Association Leveraged Performing Loan Index (S&P/LSTA Leveraged Performing Loan Index) rather than Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index because S&P/LSTA Leveraged Performing Loan Index conforms more closely to the fund's investment strategy. S&P/LSTA Leveraged Performing Loan Index is a market value-weighted index designed to represent the performance of U.S. dollar-denominated institutional leveraged performing loan portfolios (excluding loans in payment default) using current market weightings, spreads, and interest payments.

At its January 2007 meeting, the Board of Trustees approved decreasing the fund's individual fund fee rate component of its management fee from 0.55% to 0.45%. This change will take effect on February 1, 2007.

At its meeting, the Board of Trustees also approved the following modifications to the fund's Class A shares: (i) a decrease in the sales loads charged for purchases and (ii) a 0.10% increase in the Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) fee. These changes will take effect on April 1, 2007.

At its meeting, the Board of Trustees also approved the following modifications to the fund's Class C shares: (i) a reduction in the contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) schedule to 12 months and (ii) a 0.20% increase in the Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) fee. These changes will take effect on April 1, 2007.

Details regarding all of these changes can be found below.
