This Guide relates to the mutual funds (each, a “Fund”) that are series of Allianz Funds (the “Allianz Trust”), the Allianz Funds Multi-Strategy Trust (the “Multi-Strategy Trust”) and PIMCO Funds (the “PIMCO Trust” and, together with the Allianz Trust and the Multi-Strategy Trust, the “Trusts”). Class A, B, C and R shares of the Allianz Trust, the Multi-Strategy Trust and the PIMCO Trust are offered through separate prospectuses (each as from time to time revised or supplemented, a “Retail Prospectus”). The information in this Guide is subject to change without notice at the option of the Trusts, the Advisers or the Distributor.

This Guide contains detailed information about Fund purchase, redemption and exchange options and procedures and other information about the Funds. This Guide is not a prospectus, and should be used in conjunction with the applicable Retail Prospectus.

How to Buy Shares

Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R shares of each Fund are continuously offered through the Trusts’ principal underwriter, Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (the “Distributor”) and through other firms which have dealer agreements with the Distributor (“participating brokers”) or which have agreed to act as introducing brokers for the Distributor (“introducing brokers”). The Distributor is an affiliate of Allianz Global Investors Fund Management LLC (“Allianz Global Fund Management”), the investment adviser and administrator to the Funds that are series of the Allianz Trust, the investment manager to the Funds that are series of the Multi-Strategy Trust and a subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“Allianz”). The Distributor is also an affiliate of Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“Pacific Investment Management Company”), the investment adviser and administrator to the Funds that are series of the PIMCO Trust, and also a subsidiary of Allianz. Allianz Global Fund Management and Pacific Investment Management Company are each referred to herein as an “Adviser.”

Purchases Through Your Financial Advisor:

You may purchase Class A, Class B or Class C shares through a financial advisor.

Purchases By Mail:

Investors who wish to invest in Class A, Class B or Class C shares by mail may send a completed application form along with a check payable to Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, to the Distributor at:

Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC

P.O. Box 9688

Providence, RI 02940-0926

(The Distributor does not provide investment advice and will not accept any responsibility for your selection of investments as it does not have access to the information necessary to assess your financial situation). All shareholders who establish accounts by mail will receive individual confirmations of each purchase, redemption, dividend reinvestment, exchange or transfer of Fund shares, including the total number of Fund shares owned as of the confirmation date, except that purchases which result from the reinvestment of daily-accrued dividends and/or distributions will be confirmed once each calendar quarter. See “Distributions” in the applicable Retail Prospectus. Information regarding direct investment or any other features or plans offered by the Trusts may be obtained by calling the Distributor at 1-800-426-0107 or by calling your broker.

Purchases are accepted subject to collection of checks at full value and conversion into federal funds. Payment by a check drawn on any member of the Federal Reserve System can normally be converted into federal funds within two business days after receipt of the check.

SG-3

Checks drawn on a non-member bank may take up to 15 days to convert into federal funds. In all cases, the purchase price is based on the net asset value next determined after the purchase order and check are accepted, even though the check may not yet have been converted into federal funds.

The Distributor reserves the right to require payment by wire or official U.S. bank check. The Distributor generally does not accept payments made by cash, money order, temporary/starter checks, credit cards, traveler’s checks, credit card checks, or checks drawn on non-U.S. banks even if payment may be effected through a U.S. bank.

Purchases By Telephone

You may elect to purchase shares after enrolling in Fund Link (see “Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Fund Link” below). You can purchase fund shares over the phone. To initiate such purchases, call 1-800-426-0107.

Purchasing Class R Shares

Class R shares are generally available only to 401(k) plans, 457 plans, employer-sponsored 403(b) plans, profit sharing and money purchase pension plans, defined benefit plans, non-qualified deferred compensation plans, health care benefit funding plans, and other specified benefit plans and accounts whereby the plan or the plan’s financial service firm has an agreement with the Distributor or an Adviser to utilize Class R shares in certain investment products or programs (each such plan or account, a “Class R Eligible Plan”). Class R shares are not available to traditional and Roth IRAs, SEPs, SAR-SEPs, SIMPLE IRAs, 403(b)(7) custodial accounts, Coverdell Education Savings Accounts or retail or institutional benefit plans other than those specified above. Additionally, Class R shares are generally available only to Class R Eligible Plans where Class R shares are held on the books of the Funds through omnibus accounts (either at the plan level or at the level of the financial services firm level). Although Class R shares may be purchased by a plan administrator directly from the Distributor, specified benefit plans that purchase Class R shares directly from the Distributor must hold their shares in an omnibus account at the benefit plan level. Plan participants may not directly purchase Class R shares from the Distributor.

Subsequent Purchases of Shares

Subsequent purchases of Class A, Class B or Class C shares can be made as indicated above by mailing a check with a letter describing the investment or with the additional investment portion of a confirmation statement. Except for subsequent purchases through the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Invest plan, the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Exchange plan, tax-qualified programs and the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Fund Link referred to below, and except during periods when an Automatic Withdrawal Plan is in effect, the minimum subsequent purchase in any Fund is $100. All payments should be made payable to Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC and should clearly indicate the shareholder’s account number. Checks should be mailed to the address above under “Purchase by Mail.”

SG-4

Unavailable or Restricted Funds

Certain Funds and/or share classes are not currently offered to the public as of the date of this Guide. Please see the applicable Prospectuses for details. This Guide will be revised or supplemented when and if these restrictions change.

On Purchasing Shares

Shares may be purchased at a price equal to their net asset value per share next determined after receipt of an order, plus a sales charge which may be imposed either (i) at the time of the purchase in the case of Class A shares (the “initial sales charge alternative”), (ii) on a contingent deferred basis in the case of Class B shares (the “deferred sales charge alternative”) or (iii) by the deduction of an ongoing asset based sales charge in the case of Class C shares (the “asset based sales charge alternative”). Class R shares may be purchased at a price equal to their net asset value per share next determined after receipt of an order. In certain circumstances, Class A and Class C shares are also subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (“CDSC”). See “Alternative Purchase Arrangements.” Purchase payments for Class B and Class C shares are fully invested at the net asset value next determined after acceptance of the trade. Purchase payments for Class A shares, less the applicable sales charge, are invested at the net asset value next determined after acceptance of the trade.

All purchase orders received by the Distributor prior to the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange on a regular business day are processed at that day’s offering price. However, orders received by the Distributor from dealers or brokers after the offering price is determined that day will receive such offering price if the orders were received by the dealer or broker from its customer prior to such determination and were transmitted to and received by the Distributor prior to its close of business that day (normally 5:00 p.m., Eastern time) or, in the case of certain retirement plans that have an agreement with Pacific Investment Management Company, Allianz Global Fund Management or the Distributor, received by the Distributor or the relevant transfer agent prior to 9:30 a.m., Eastern time on the next business day. Purchase orders received on other than a regular business day will be executed on the next succeeding regular business day. The Distributor, in its sole discretion, may accept or reject any order for purchase of Fund shares. The sale of shares will be suspended on any day on which the New York Stock Exchange is closed and, if permitted by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, when trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted or during an emergency which makes it impracticable for the Funds to dispose of their securities or to determine fairly the value of their net assets, or during any other period as permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission for the protection of investors.

SG-5

Minimum Purchase Amounts

Except for purchases through the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Invest plan, the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Exchange plan, investments pursuant to the Uniform Gifts to Minors Act, tax-qualified plans and, to the extent agreed to by the Distributor, wrap programs referred to below under “Alternative Purchase Arrangements—Sales at Net Asset Value,” and purchases by certain registered representatives as described below under “Registered Representatives’ Investments,” the minimum initial investment in Class A, Class B or Class C shares of any Fund is $5,000, with a minimum additional investment of $100 per Fund, and there is no minimum initial or additional investment in Class R shares because Class R shares may only be purchased through omnibus accounts. For information about dealer commissions and other payments to dealers, see “Alternative Purchase Arrangements” below. Persons selling Fund shares may receive different compensation for selling Class A, Class B, Class C or Class R shares. Normally, Fund shares purchased through participating brokers are held in the investor’s account with that broker. No share certificates will be issued unless specifically requested in writing by an investor or broker-dealer.

Tax-Qualified Specified Benefit and Other Plans

The Distributor makes available specified benefit plan services and documents for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), including Roth IRAs, for which Boston Safe Deposit & Trust Company serves as trustee and for IRA Accounts under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Distributor makes available services and prototype documents for Simplified Employee Pension Plans (SEP). In addition, prototype documents are available for establishing 403(b)(7) custodial accounts with Boston Safe Deposit & Trust Company as custodian. This form of account is available to employees of certain non-profit organizations.

In this Guide, a “Plan Investor” means any of the following: 401(k) plan, profit-sharing plan, money purchase pension plan, defined benefit plan, 457 plan, employer-sponsored 403(b) plan, non-qualified deferred compensation plan, health care benefit funding plan and specified benefit plans and accounts whereby the plan or the plan’s financial service firm has an agreement with the Distributor or an Adviser to utilize Class R shares in certain investment products or programs, or other benefit plan specified as such by the Distributor. The term “Plan Investor” does not include an IRA, Roth IRA, SEP IRA, SIMPLE IRA, SAR-SEP IRA, 403(b)(7) custodial account, a Coverdell Education Savings Account or a College Access 529 Plan Account.

The minimum initial investment for all Plan Investors, IRAs, Roth IRAs, SEP IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, SAR-SEP IRAs and 403(b)(7) custodial accounts are set forth in the table under “Specified Benefit Account Minimums” below.

Note for Plan Investors. For Plan Investors invested in a Fund through “omnibus” account arrangements, there is no minimum initial investment per plan participant. Instead, there

SG-6

is a minimum initial investment per plan, which is agreed upon by the Distributor and the financial intermediary maintaining the omnibus account. However, any Plan Investor that has existing positions in the Funds and that does not already maintain an omnibus account with a Fund and would like to invest in such Fund is subject to the minimum initial investment set forth in the table under “Specified Benefit Account Minimums” below.

Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Invest

The Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Invest plan provides for periodic investments into the shareholder’s account with the Trust by means of automatic transfers of a designated amount from the shareholder’s bank account. The minimum investment for eligibility in the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Invest plan is $2,500 per Fund. Investments may be made monthly or quarterly, and may be in any amount subject to a minimum of $50 per month for each Fund in which shares are purchased through the plan. Further information regarding the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Invest plan is available from the Distributor or participating brokers. You may enroll by completing the appropriate section on the account application, or you may obtain an Auto-Invest application by calling the Distributor or your broker. The use of the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Invest plan may be limited for certain Funds and/or share classes at the discretion of the Distributor.

Registered Representatives’ Investments

Current registered representatives and other full-time employees of participating brokers or such persons’ spouses or trusts or custodial accounts for their minor children may purchase Class A shares at net asset value without a sales charge. The minimum initial investment in each case is $1,000 per Fund and the minimum subsequent investment is $50.

Uniform Gifts to Minors Act Investments

For investments pursuant to the Uniform Gifts to Minors Act, the minimum initial investment in Class A, Class B and Class C shares of any Fund is $2,500, with a minimum additional investment of $50 per Fund.

Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Exchange

The Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Exchange plan establishes regular, periodic exchanges from one Fund account to another Fund account. The plan provides for regular investments into a shareholder’s account in a specific Fund by means of automatic exchanges of a designated amount from another Fund account of the same class of shares and with identical account registration.

Exchanges may be made monthly or quarterly, and may be in any amount subject to a minimum of $2,500 to open a new Fund account and of $50 for any existing Fund account for which shares are purchased through the plan.

SG-7

Further information regarding the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Exchange plan is available from the Distributor at 1-800-426-0107 or participating brokers. You may enroll by completing an application which may be obtained from the Distributor or by telephone request at 1-800-426-0107. The use of Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Exchange plan may be limited for certain Funds and/or other share classes at the option of the Distributor, and as set forth in the Prospectus. For more information on exchanges, see “Exchange Privilege.”

Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Fund Link

Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Fund Link (“Fund Link”) connects your Fund account(s) with a bank account. Fund Link may be used for subsequent purchases and for redemptions and other transactions described under “How to Redeem.” Purchase transactions are effected by electronic funds transfers from the shareholder’s account at a U.S. bank or other financial institution that is an Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) member. Investors may use Fund Link to make subsequent purchases of shares in any amount greater than $50. To initiate such purchases, call 1-800-426-0107. All such calls will be recorded. Fund Link is normally established within 45 days of receipt of a Fund Link application by PNC Global Investment Servicing, Inc. (the “Transfer Agent”), the Funds’ transfer agent for Class A, B, C and R shares. The minimum investment by Fund Link is $50 per Fund. Shares will be purchased on the regular business day the Distributor receives the funds through the ACH system, provided the funds are received before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. If the funds are received after the close of regular trading, the shares will be purchased on the next regular business day.

Fund Link privileges must be requested on the account application. To establish Fund Link on an existing account, complete a Fund Link application, which is available from the Distributor or your broker, with signatures guaranteed from all shareholders of record for the account. See “Signature Guarantee” below. Such privileges apply to each shareholder of record for the account unless and until the Distributor receives written instructions from a shareholder of record canceling such privileges. Changes of bank account information must be made by completing a new Fund Link application signed by all owners of record of the account, with all signatures guaranteed. The Distributor, the Transfer Agent and the Fund may rely on any telephone instructions believed to be genuine and will not be responsible to shareholders for any damage, loss or expenses arising out of such instructions. The Fund reserves the right to amend, suspend or discontinue Fund Link privileges at any time without prior notice. Fund Link does not apply to shares held in broker “street name” accounts or in other omnibus accounts.

Signature Guarantee

When a signature guarantee is called for, a “medallion” signature guarantee will be required. A medallion signature guarantee may be obtained from a domestic bank or trust company, broker, dealer, clearing agency, savings association or other financial institution which is participating in a medallion program recognized by the Securities Transfer Association. The

SG-8

three recognized medallion programs are the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program (STAMP), Stock Exchanges Medallion Program (SEMP) and New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Medallion Signature Program (NYSE MSP). Signature guarantees from financial institutions which are not participating in one of these programs will not be accepted. Please note that financial institutions participating in a recognized medallion program may still be ineligible to provide a signature guarantee for transactions of greater than a specified dollar amount.

The Distributor reserves the right to modify its signature guarantee standards at any time. The Funds may change the signature guarantee requirements from time to time upon notice to shareholders, which may, but is not required to, be given by means of a new or supplemented Retail Prospectus or a new or supplemented Guide. Shareholders should contact the Distributor for additional details regarding the Funds’ signature guarantee requirements.

Account Registration Changes

Changes in registration or account privileges may be made in writing to the Transfer Agent. Signature guarantees may be required. See “Signature Guarantee” above. All correspondence must include the account number and must be sent to:

PNC Global Investment Servicing, Inc.

P.O. Box 9688

Providence, RI 02940-9688

Small Account Fee

Because of the disproportionately high costs of servicing accounts with low balances, a fee at an annual rate of $16 (paid to the applicable Fund’s administrator) will automatically be deducted from accounts with balances falling below a minimum level. The valuation of Fund accounts and the deduction are expected to take place during the last five business days of each calendar quarter. The fee will be deducted in quarterly installments from Fund accounts with balances below $2,500, except that for Uniform Gift to Minors, IRA, Roth IRA, non-omnibus Plan Investor accounts, 403(b)(7) custodial accounts, SIMPLE IRAs, SEPs, SAR-SEP IRAs, Auto-Invest and Auto-Exchange accounts, the fee will be deducted from Fund accounts with balances below $1,000. (A separate custodial fee may apply to IRAs, Roth IRAs and other retirement accounts.) No fee will be charged on any Fund account of a shareholder if the aggregate value of all of the shareholder’s Fund accounts (and the accounts of the shareholder’s spouse and his or her children under the age of 21 years), or all of the accounts of an employee benefits plan of a single employer, is at least $50,000. No fee will be charged on Plan Investors or Class R shares held through omnibus accounts. Any applicable small account fee will be deducted automatically from your below-minimum Fund account in quarterly installments and paid to the Administrator. No small account fee will be charged to employee and employee-related accounts of an Adviser and/or, in the discretion of an Adviser, its affiliates.

SG-9

Minimum Account Size

Due to the relatively high cost to the Funds of maintaining small accounts, shareholders are asked to maintain an account balance in each Fund in which the shareholder invests at least the amount necessary to open the type of account involved. If a shareholder’s balance for any Fund is below such minimum for three months or longer, the applicable Fund’s administrator shall have the right (except in the case of employer-sponsored retirement accounts) to close that Fund account after giving the shareholder 60 days in which to increase his or her balance. The shareholder’s Fund account will not be liquidated if the reduction in size is due solely to market decline in the value of the shareholder’s Fund shares or if the aggregate value of the shareholder’s accounts (and the accounts of the shareholder’s spouse and his or her children under the age of 21 years), or all of the accounts of an employee benefits plan of a single employer, in Funds of the Allianz Trust, Multi-Strategy Trust and PIMCO Trust exceeds $50,000.

Transfer on Death Registration

The Distributor may accept “transfer on death” (“TOD”) registration requests from investors. The laws of a state selected by the Distributor in accordance with the Uniform TOD Security Registration Act will govern the registration. The Distributor may require appropriate releases and indemnifications from investors as a prerequisite for permitting TOD registration. The Distributor may from time to time change these requirements (including by changes to the determination as to which state’s law governs TOD registrations).

SG-10

Alternative Purchase Arrangements

The Funds offer investors up to four classes of shares (Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R) in the applicable Retail Prospectus. Class A, Class B and Class C shares bear sales charges in different forms and amounts and bear different levels of expenses, as described below. Class R shares do not bear a sales charge, but are subject to expenses that vary from those levied on Class A, Class B or Class C shares, and are available only to Class R Eligible Plans. Through separate prospectuses, certain of the Funds currently offer up to four additional classes of shares in the United States: Class D, Class P, Institutional Class and Administrative Class shares. Class D shares are offered through financial intermediaries. Class P shares are offered primarily through certain asset allocation, wrap fee and other fee-based programs sponsored by broker-dealers and other financial intermediaries. Institutional Class shares are offered to pension and profit sharing plans, employee benefit trusts, endowments, foundations, corporations and other high net worth individuals. Administrative Class shares are offered primarily through employee benefit plan alliances, broker-dealers and other intermediaries. Similar to Class R shares, Class D, Class P, Institutional Class and Administrative Class shares are sold without a sales charge and have different expenses than Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R shares. As a result of lower sales charges and/or operating expenses, Class D, Class P, Institutional Class and Administrative Class shares are generally expected to achieve higher investment returns than Class A, Class B, Class C or Class R shares. To obtain more information about the other classes of shares, please call the applicable Trust at 1-800-927-4648 (for Institutional Class, Administrative Class, and Class P shares) or the Distributor at 1-800-426-0107 (for Class D shares).

The alternative purchase arrangements described in this Guide are designed to enable a retail investor to choose the method of purchasing Fund shares that is most beneficial to the investor based on all factors to be considered, including the amount and intended length of the investment, the particular Fund and whether the investor intends to exchange shares for shares of other Funds. Generally, when making an investment decision, investors should consider the anticipated life of an intended investment in the Funds, the size of the investment, the accumulated distribution and servicing fees plus CDSCs on Class B or Class C shares, the initial sales charge plus accumulated servicing fees on Class A shares (plus a CDSC in certain

SG-11

circumstances), the possibility that the anticipated higher return on Class A shares due to the lower ongoing charges will offset the initial sales charge paid on such shares, the automatic conversion of Class B shares into Class A shares and the difference in the CDSCs applicable to Class A, Class B and Class C shares.

Investors should understand that initial sales charges, servicing and distribution fees and CDSCs are all used directly or indirectly to fund the compensation of financial intermediaries who sell Fund shares. Depending on the arrangements in place at any particular time, a financial intermediary may have a financial incentive for recommending a particular share class over other share classes.

Class A. The initial sales charge alternative (Class A) might be preferred by investors purchasing shares of sufficient aggregate value to qualify for reductions in the initial sales charge applicable to such shares. Similar reductions are not available on the contingent deferred sales charge alternative (Class B) or the asset based sales charge alternative (Class C). Class A shares are subject to a servicing fee but are not subject to a distribution fee and, accordingly, such shares are expected to pay correspondingly higher dividends on a per share basis. However, because initial sales charges are deducted at the time of purchase, not all of the purchase payment for Class A shares is invested initially. Class B and Class C shares might be preferable to investors who wish to have all purchase payments invested initially, although remaining subject to higher distribution and servicing fees and, for certain periods, being subject to a CDSC. An investor who qualifies for an elimination of the Class A initial sales charge should also consider whether he or she anticipates redeeming shares in a time period which will subject such shares to a CDSC as described below. See “Class A Deferred Sales Charge” below.

Class B. Class B shares might be preferred by investors who intend to invest in the Funds for longer periods and who do not intend to purchase shares of sufficient aggregate value to qualify for sales charge reductions applicable to Class A shares. Both Class B and Class C shares can be purchased at net asset value without an initial sales charge. However, unlike Class C shares, Class B shares convert into Class A shares after they have been held for a period of time. Class B shares of All Asset, Diversified Income, Emerging Markets Bond, Foreign Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), Global Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), GNMA, High Yield, Long-Term U.S. Government, Mortgage-Backed Securities, StocksPLUS^® Total Return and Total Return Funds purchased on or after October 1, 2004 will convert into Class A shares after the shares have been held for five years. Class B shares of series of the PIMCO Trust purchased on or before December 31, 2001 and Class B shares of series of the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds not listed above purchased after September 30, 2004 convert into Class A shares after the shares have been held for seven years. Class B shares of series of the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds purchased after December 31, 2001 but before October 1, 2004 convert into Class A shares after the shares have been held for eight years. After the conversion takes place, the shares will no longer be subject to a CDSC, and will be subject to the servicing fees charged for Class A shares, which are lower than the distribution and servicing fees charged on either Class B or Class C shares. See “Deferred Sales Charge Alternative—Class B Shares” below. Class B shares are not available for purchase by Plan Investors or by SEP IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, SAR-SEP IRAs and 403(b)(7) custodial accounts. Traditional and Roth IRAs may invest in Class B shares.

SG-12

Class B shares of the Low Duration, Money Market, Municipal Bond, Real Return, Short-Term and StocksPLUS® Funds may only be (i) acquired through the exchange of Class B shares of other Funds; or (ii) purchased by persons who held Class B shares of the Low Duration, Money Market, Municipal Bond, Real Return, Short-Term or StocksPLUS® Funds at the close of business on September 30, 2004. If you redeem all Class B shares of the Low Duration, Money Market, Municipal Bond, Real Return, Short-Term and StocksPLUS® Funds in your account, you cannot purchase new Class B shares thereafter (although you may still acquire Class B shares of these Funds through exchange). The Funds may waive this restriction for certain specified benefit plans that were invested in Class B shares of the Low Duration, Money Market, Municipal Bond, Real Return, Short-Term or StocksPLUS® Funds at the close of business on September 30, 2004.

Class C. Class C shares might be preferred by investors who intend to purchase shares which are not of sufficient aggregate value to qualify for Class A sales charges of 1% or less and who wish to have all purchase payments invested initially. Class C shares are preferable to Class B shares for investors who intend to maintain their investment for intermediate periods and therefore may also be preferable for investors who are unsure of the intended length of their investment. Unlike Class B shares, Class C shares are not subject to a CDSC after they have been held for one year (eighteen months for Class C shares of the CommodityRealReturn Strategy, International StocksPLUS® TR Strategy (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), RealEstateRealReturn Strategy, NACM Emerging Markets Opportunities, NACM Global, NACM Global Equity 130/30, NACM International, NACM Pacific Rim, NFJ International Value, RCM All Horizons, RCM Global EcoTrends^SM, RCM Global Resources, RCM Global Small-Cap, RCM Global Water, RCM Healthcare, RCM International Growth Equity, RCM International Opportunities and RCM Technology Funds) and are subject to only a 1% CDSC during the first year (or eighteen months). However, because Class C shares do not convert into Class A shares, Class B shares are preferable to Class C shares for investors who intend to maintain their investment in the Funds for long periods. See “Asset Based Sales Charge Alternative—Class C Shares” below.

Class R. Only Class R Eligible Plans may purchase Class R shares. Class R shares might be preferred by a Class R Eligible Plan intending to invest retirement plan assets held through omnibus accounts, which does not intend to purchase shares of sufficient aggregate value to qualify for sales charge reductions applicable to Class A shares. Class R shares are preferable to Class B and Class C shares because Class R shares are not subject to a CDSC and are subject to lower aggregate distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and may be preferable to Class A shares because Class R shares are not subject to the initial sales charge imposed on Class A shares.

In determining which class of shares to purchase, an investor should always consider whether any waiver or reduction of a sales charge or a CDSC is available. See generally “Initial Sales Charge Alternative—Class A Shares” and “Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges” below.

SG-13

The maximum purchase of Class B shares of a Fund in a single purchase is $49,999. The maximum purchase of Class C shares of a Fund in a single purchase is $499,999 ($249,999 for the Floating Income, Low Duration, Short-Term and Short Duration Municipal Income Funds). If an investor intends to purchase Class B or Class C shares: (i) for more than one Fund and the aggregate purchase price for all such purchases will exceed $49,999 for Class B shares or $499,999 ($249,999 for the Floating Income, Low Duration, Short-Term and Short Duration Municipal Income Funds) for Class C shares or (ii) for one fund in a series of transactions and the aggregate purchase amount will exceed $49,999 for Class B shares or $499,999 ($249,999 for the Floating Income, Low Duration, Short-Term and Short Duration Municipal Income Funds) for Class C shares, then in either such event the investor should consider whether purchasing another share class may be in the investor’s best interests. The Funds may refuse any order to purchase shares.

For a description of the Distribution and Servicing Plans and distribution and servicing fees payable thereunder with respect to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R shares, see “Distribution and Servicing (12b-1) Plans” in the Retail Prospectuses.

Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges. The CDSC applicable to Class A and Class C shares is currently waived for:

(i) any partial or complete redemption in connection with (a) required minimum distributions to IRA account owners or beneficiaries who are age 70 1/2 or older or (b) distributions to participants in employer-sponsored retirement plans upon attaining age 59 1/2 or on account of death or permanent and total disability (as defined in Section 22(e) of the Code) that occurs after the purchase of Class A or Class C shares;

(iv) any partial or complete redemption following death or permanent and total disability (as defined in Section 22(e) of the Code) of an individual holding shares for his or her own account and/or as the last survivor of a joint tenancy arrangement (this provision, however, does not cover an individual holding in a fiduciary capacity or as a nominee or agent or a legal entity which is other than an individual or the owners or beneficiaries of any such entity) provided the redemption is requested within one year of the death or initial determination of disability and provided the death or disability occurs after the purchase of the shares;

(v) any redemption resulting from a return of an excess contribution to a qualified employer retirement plan or an IRA;

SG-14

(xv) a redemption by a holder of Class A or Class C shares where the participating broker or dealer involved in the purchase of such shares waived all payments it normally would receive from the Distributor at the time of purchase (i.e., commissions or reallowances of initial sales charges and advancements of service and distribution fees); or

(xvi) a redemption by a holder of Class A or Class C shares where, by agreement with the Distributor, the participating broker or dealer involved in the purchase of such shares waived a portion of any payment it normally would receive from the Distributor at the time of purchase (or otherwise agreed to a variation from the normal payment schedule) in connection with such purchase.

(v) up to 10% per year of the value of a Fund account which (a) has a value of at least $10,000 at the start of such year and (b) is subject to an Automatic Withdrawal Plan (See “How to Redeem—Automatic Withdrawal Plan”); and

(vi) redemptions effected pursuant to a Fund’s right to involuntarily redeem a shareholder’s Fund account if the aggregate net asset value of shares held in the account is less than a minimum account size specified in the Fund’s prospectus.

The Distributor may require documentation prior to waiver of the CDSC for any class, including distribution letters, certification by plan administrators, applicable tax forms, death certificates, physicians’ certificates (e.g., with respect to disabilities), etc.

Exempt Transactions; No CDSCs or Payments to Brokers

Investors will not be subject to CDSCs, and brokers and dealers will not receive any commissions or reallowances of initial sales charges or advancements of service and distribution fees, on the transactions described below (which are sometimes referred to as “Exempt Transactions”):

• A redemption by a holder of Class A or Class C shares where the participating broker or dealer involved in the purchase of such shares waived all payments it normally would receive from the Distributor at the time of purchase (e.g., commissions and/or reallowances of initial sales charges and advancements of service and distribution fees).

SG-16

• A redemption by a holder of Class A or Class C shares where, by agreement with the Distributor, the participating broker or dealer involved in the purchase of such shares waived a portion of any payment it normally would receive from the Distributor at the time of purchase (or otherwise agreed to a variation from the normal payment schedule) in connection with such purchase.

• Transactions described under clause (A) of Note 4 to the tables in the subsection “Initial Sales Charge Alternative—Class A Shares.”

Initial Sales Charge Alternative – Class A Shares

Class A shares are sold at a public offering price equal to their net asset value per share plus a sales charge, as set forth below. As indicated below under “Class A Deferred Sales Charge,” certain investors that purchase $1,000,000 ($250,000 in the case of the California Short Duration Municipal Income, Floating Income, Low Duration, Short Duration Municipal Income and Short-Term Funds) or more of any Fund’s Class A shares (and thus pay no initial sales charge) may be subject to a CDSC of up to 1% if they redeem such shares during the first 18 months after their purchase.

** From time to time, these discounts and commissions may be increased pursuant to special arrangements between the Distributor and certain participating brokers.

1. As shown, investors that purchase more than $1,000,000 of any Fund’s Class A shares ($250,000 in the case of the California Short Duration Municipal Income, Floating Income, Low Duration, Short Duration Municipal Income and Short-Term Funds) will not pay any initial sales charge on such purchase. However, except with regard to purchases of Class A shares of the Money Market Fund and certain purchases of Class A shares of the California Short Duration Municipal Income, Floating Income, Low Duration, Short Duration Municipal Income and Short-Term Funds described in Note 4 below, purchasers of $1,000,000 ($250,000 in the case of the California Short Duration Municipal Income, Floating Income, Low Duration, Short Duration Municipal Income and Short-Term Funds) or more of Class A shares (other than those purchasers described below under “Sales at Net Asset Value” where no commission is paid) will be subject to a CDSC of up to 1% (0.50% in the case of the California Short Duration Municipal Income, Floating Income, Short Duration Municipal Income and Short-Term Funds and 0.75% in the case of the Low Duration Fund) if such shares are redeemed during the first 18 months after such shares are purchased unless such purchaser is eligible for a waiver of the CDSC as described under “Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges” above. See “Class A Deferred Sales Charge” below.

2. The Distributor will pay a commission to dealers who sell amounts of $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares according to the following schedule: 0.75% of the first $2,000,000, 0.50% of amounts from $2,000,001 to $5,000,000, and 0.25% of amounts over $5,000,000. These payments are not made in connection with sales to employer-sponsored plans.

3. The Distributor will pay a commission to dealers who sell amounts of $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares of each of these Funds except for the Money Market Fund (for which no payment is made), in each case according to the following schedule: 0.50% of the first $2,000,000 and 0.25% of amounts over $2,000,000. These payments are not made in connection with sales to employer-sponsored plans.

4. (A) The Distributor will pay a commission to dealers who sell $250,000 or more of Class A shares of the California Short Duration Municipal Income, Floating Income, Low Duration, Short Duration Municipal Income and Short-Term Funds at the annual rate of 0.15% (0.35% in the case of the Low Duration Fund) of the net asset value of such Class A shares as in effect from time to time; such commission shall be paid in installments covering the 18 month period commencing with the date of sale. Such installments shall be

SG-19

paid after the end of calendar quarters in accordance with the Distributor’s practice, which may change from time to time. Investors purchasing Class A shares of such Funds through such dealers will not be subject to the Class A CDSC on such shares. (B) Alternatively, dealers may elect (through an agreement with the Distributor) to receive a commission at the time of sale on purchases of $250,000 or more of these Funds of 0.25% of the public offering price (for purchases of the California Short Duration Municipal Income, Floating Income, Short Duration Municipal Income and Short-Term Funds) or 0.50% of the public offering price (for purchases of the Low Duration Fund). Investors who purchase through dealers that elect the commission schedule described in this clause (B) will be subject to the Class A CDSC. (C) In addition to the commissions described in (A) and (B) above, dealers may be entitled to receive an annual servicing fee of 0.25% of the net asset value of such shares for so long as such shares are outstanding, as described below under “Participating Brokers.” These payments are not made in connection with sales to employer-sponsored plans.

Each Fund receives the entire net asset value of its Class A shares purchased by investors (i.e., the gross purchase price minus the applicable sales charge). The Distributor receives the sales charge shown above less any applicable discount or commission “reallowed” to participating brokers in the amounts indicated in the table above. The Distributor may, however, elect to reallow the entire sales charge to participating brokers for all sales with respect to which orders are placed with the Distributor for any particular Fund during a particular period. During such periods as may from time to time be designated by the Distributor, the Distributor will pay an additional amount of up to 0.50% of the purchase price on sales of Class A shares of all or selected Funds purchased to each participating broker which obtains purchase orders in amounts exceeding thresholds established from time to time by the Distributor.

Shares issued pursuant to the automatic reinvestment of income dividends or capital gains distributions are issued at net asset value and are not subject to any sales charges.

Under the circumstances described below, investors may be entitled to pay reduced sales charges for Class A shares.

These discounts and commissions may be increased pursuant to special arrangements from time to time agreed upon between the Distributor and certain participating brokers.

Right of Accumulation and Combined Purchase Privilege (Breakpoints).

A Qualifying Investor (as defined below) may qualify for a reduced sales charge on Class A shares (the “Combined Purchase Privilege”) by combining concurrent purchases of the Class A shares of one or more Eligible Funds (as defined below) into a single purchase. In addition, a Qualifying Investor may qualify for a reduced sale charge on Class A shares (the “Right of Accumulation” or “Cumulative Quantity Discount”) by combining the purchase of Class A shares of an Eligible Fund with the current aggregate net asset value of all Class A, B, and C shares of any Eligible Fund held by accounts for the benefit of such Qualifying Investor. An Eligible Fund is a Fund (other than the Money Market Fund) that offers Class A shares.

The term “Qualifying Investor” refers to:

SG-20

(i) an individual, such individual’s spouse, such individual’s children under the age of 21 years, or such individual’s siblings (each a “family member”) (including family trust* accounts established by such a family member)

or

(ii) a trustee or other fiduciary for a single trust (except family trusts* noted above), estate or fiduciary account although more than one beneficiary may be involved

or

(iii) an employee benefit plan of a single employer

* For the purpose of determining whether a purchase would qualify for a reduced sales charge under the Combined Purchase Privilege or Right of Accumulation, a “family trust” is one in which a family member(s) described in section (i) above is/are a beneficiary/ies and such person(s) and/or another family member is the trustee.

For example, the following illustrates the operation of the Right of Accumulation:

If a shareholder owned Class A shares of the OCC Equity Premium Strategy Fund with a current net asset value of $10,000, Class B shares of the RCM Technology Fund with a current net asset value of $5,000 and Class C shares of the OCC Target Fund with a current net asset value of $10,000 and he wished to purchase Class A shares of the OCC Growth Fund with a purchase price of $30,000 (including sales charge), the sales charge for the $30,000 purchase would be at the 4.50% rate applicable to a single $55,000 purchase of shares of the OCC Growth Fund, rather than the 5.50% rate that would otherwise apply to a $30,000 purchase. The discount will be applied only to the current purchase (i.e., the $30,000 purchase), not to any previous transaction.

Shares purchased or held through a Plan Investor or any other employer-sponsored benefit program do not count for purposes of determining whether an investor qualifies for a Cumulative Quantity Discount.

Letter of Intent. An investor may also obtain a reduced sales charge on purchases of Class A shares by means of a written Letter of Intent, which expresses an intention to invest not less than $50,000 within a period of 13 months in Class A shares of any Eligible Fund(s) (which does not include the Money Market Fund). The maximum intended investment amount allowable in a Letter of Intent is $1,000,000 (except for Class A shares of the California Short Duration Municipal Income, Floating Income, Low Duration Fund, Short Term Fund, and Short Duration Municipal Income Fund, for which the maximum intended investment amount is $100,000). Each purchase of shares under a Letter of Intent will be made at the public offering price or prices applicable at the time of such purchase to a Single Purchase of the dollar amount indicated in the Letter. At the investor’s option, a Letter of Intent may include purchases of Class A shares of any Eligible Fund made not more than 90 days prior to the date the Letter of Intent is signed; however, the 13-month period during which the Letter of Intent is in effect will begin on the date

SG-21

of the earliest purchase to be included and the sales charge on any purchases prior to the Letter of Intent will not be adjusted. In making computations concerning the amount purchased for purpose of a Letter of Intent, any redemptions during the operative period are deducted from the amount invested.

Investors qualifying for the Combined Purchase Privilege described above may purchase shares of the Eligible Funds (which does not include the Money Market Fund) under a single Letter of Intent. For example, if at the time you sign a Letter of Intent to invest at least $100,000 in Class A shares of any Eligible Fund, you and your spouse each purchase Class A shares of the OCC Growth Fund worth $30,000 (for a total of $60,000), it will only be necessary to invest a total of $40,000 during the following 13 months in Class A shares of any of the Eligible Funds to qualify for the 3.50% sales charge on the total amount being invested (the sales charge applicable to an investment of $100,000 in any of the Funds other than the All Asset, All Asset All Authority, California Intermediate Municipal Bond, California Short Duration Municipal Income, Developing Local Markets, Diversified Income, Emerging Local Bond, Emerging Markets Bond, Floating Income, Foreign Bond (Unhedged), Foreign Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), Fundamental Advantage Tax Efficient Strategy, Fundamental Advantage Total Return Strategy, Fundamental IndexPLUS^TM TR, Global Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), Global Multi-Asset, GNMA, High Yield, High Yield Municipal Bond, Income, International StocksPLUS^® TR Strategy (Unhedged), Investment Grade Corporate Bond, Long-Term U.S. Government, Low Duration, Mortgage-Backed Securities, Municipal Bond, New York Municipal Bond, Real Return, Short Duration Municipal Income, Short-Term, Small Cap StocksPLUS^® TR, StocksPLUS^® , StocksPLUS^® Total Return, StocksPLUS^® TR Short Strategy, Total Return and Unconstrained Bond Funds).

A Letter of Intent is not a binding obligation to purchase the full amount indicated. The minimum initial investment under a Letter of Intent is 5% of such amount. Shares purchased with the first 5% of the amount indicated in the Letter of Intent will be held in escrow (while remaining registered in your name) to secure payment of the higher sales charge applicable to the shares actually purchased in the event the full intended amount is not purchased. If the full amount indicated is not purchased, a sufficient amount of such escrowed shares will be involuntarily redeemed to pay the additional sales charge applicable to the amount actually purchased, if necessary. Dividends on escrowed shares, whether paid in cash or reinvested in additional Eligible Fund shares, are not subject to escrow. When the full amount indicated has been purchased, the escrow will be released.

If you wish to enter into a Letter of Intent in conjunction with your initial investment in Class A shares of a Fund, you should complete the appropriate portion of the account application. If you are a current Class A shareholder desiring to do so you may obtain a form of Letter of Intent by contacting the Distributor at 1-800-426-0107 or any broker participating in this program.

SG-22

Shares purchased or held through a Plan Investor or any other employer-sponsored benefit program do not count for purposes of determining whether an investor has qualified for a reduced sales charge through the use of a Letter of Intent.

Reinstatement Privilege. A Class A shareholder who has caused any or all of his shares (other than the Money Market Fund shares that were not acquired by exchanging Class A shares of another Fund) to be redeemed may reinvest all or any portion of the redemption proceeds in Class A shares of any Eligible Fund at net asset value without any sales charge, provided that such reinvestment is made within 120 calendar days after the redemption or repurchase date. Shares are sold to a reinvesting shareholder at the net asset value next determined. See “How Net Asset Value is Determined” in the applicable Retail Prospectus. A reinstatement pursuant to this privilege will not cancel the redemption transaction and, consequently, any gain or loss so realized may be recognized for federal tax purposes except that no loss may be recognized to the extent that the proceeds are reinvested in shares of the same Fund within 30 days. The reinstatement privilege may be utilized by a shareholder only once, irrespective of the number of shares redeemed, except that the privilege may be utilized without limit in connection with transactions whose sole purpose is to transfer a shareholder’s interest in a Fund to his Individual Retirement Account or other qualified retirement plan account. An investor may exercise the reinstatement privilege by written request sent to the Distributor or to the investor’s broker.

Sales at Net Asset Value. Each Fund may sell its Class A shares at net asset value without a sales charge to

(i) current or retired officers, trustees, directors or employees of any of the Trusts, Allianz, Allianz Global Fund Management, Pacific Investment Management Company or the Distributor, other affiliates of Allianz Global Fund Management and funds advised or subadvised by any such affiliates, in any case at the discretion of Allianz Global Fund Management, Pacific Investment Management Company or the Distributor; a parent, brother or sister of any such officer, trustee, director or employee or a spouse or child of any of the foregoing persons, or any trust, profit-sharing or pension plan for the benefit of any such person and to any other person if the Distributor anticipates that there will be minimal sales expenses associated with the sale;

(ii) current registered representatives and other full-time employees of participating brokers or such persons’ spouses or for trust or custodial accounts for their minor children;

(iii) trustees or other fiduciaries purchasing shares for certain plans sponsored by employers, professional organizations or associations or charitable organizations, the trustee, administrator, recordkeeper, fiduciary, broker, trust company or registered investment adviser for which has an agreement with the Distributor, Allianz Global Fund Management or Pacific Investment Management Company with respect to such purchases (including provisions related to minimum levels of investment in a Trust), and to participants in such plans and their spouses purchasing for their account(s) or IRAs;

SG-23

(iv) participants investing through accounts known as “wrap accounts” established with brokers or dealers approved by the Distributor where such brokers or dealers are paid a single, inclusive fee for brokerage and investment management services;

(v) client accounts of broker-dealers or registered investment advisers affiliated with such broker-dealers with which the Distributor, Allianz Global Fund Management or Pacific Investment Management Company has an agreement for the use of a Fund in particular investment products or programs or in particular situations;

(vi) accounts for which the company that serves as trustee or custodian either (a) is affiliated with Allianz Global Fund Management or Pacific Investment Management Company or (b) has a specific agreement to that effect with the Distributor; and

(vii) investors who purchase shares in “Exempt Transactions,” as described under “Exempt Transactions; No CDSCs or Payments to Brokers” above.

The Distributor will only pay service fees and will not pay any initial commission or other fees to dealers upon the sale of Class A shares to the purchasers described in sub-paragraphs (i) through (vii) above except that the Distributor will pay initial commissions to any dealer for sales to purchasers described under sub-paragraph (iii) above provided such dealer has a written agreement with the Distributor specifically providing for the payment of such initial commissions.

Notification of Distributor. In many cases, neither the Trusts, the Distributor nor the transfer agents will have the information necessary to determine whether a quantity discount or reduced sales charge is applicable to a purchase. An investor or participating broker must notify the Distributor whenever a quantity discount or reduced sales charge is applicable to a purchase and must provide the Distributor with sufficient information at the time of purchase to verify that each purchase qualifies for the privilege or discount, including such information as is necessary to obtain any applicable “combined treatment” of an investor’s holdings in multiple accounts. Upon such notification, the investor will receive the lowest applicable sales charge. For investors investing in Class A shares through a financial intermediary, it is the responsibility of the financial intermediary to ensure that the investor obtains the proper quantity discount or reduced sales charge. The quantity discounts and commission schedules described above may be modified or terminated at any time.

Class A Deferred Sales Charge. For purchases of Class A shares of all Funds (except the California Short Duration Municipal Income, Floating Income, Low Duration, Money Market, Short Duration Municipal Income and Short-Term Funds), investors who purchase $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares (and, thus, purchase such shares without any initial sales charge) may be subject to a 1% CDSC if such shares are redeemed within 18 months of their purchase. Certain purchases of Class A shares of the California Short Duration Municipal Income, Floating Income, Low Duration, Short Duration Municipal Income and Short-Term Funds described above under “Initial Sales Charge—Class A Shares” will be subject to a CDSC of 0.75% (for the

SG-24

Low Duration Fund) or 0.50% (for the California Short Duration Municipal Income, Floating Income, Short Duration Municipal Income and Short-Term Funds) if such shares are redeemed within 18 months after their purchase. The CDSCs described in this paragraph are sometimes referred to as the “Class A CDSC.” The Class A CDSC does not apply to investors purchasing any Fund’s Class A shares if such investors are otherwise eligible to purchase Class A shares without any sales charge because they are described under “Sales at Net Asset Value” above.

For purchases subject to the Class A CDSC, a CDSC will apply for any redemption of such Class A shares that occurs within 18 months of their purchase. No CDSC will be imposed if the shares redeemed have been acquired through the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions or if the amount redeemed is derived from increases in the value of the account above the amount of purchase payments subject to the CDSC. In determining whether a CDSC is payable, it is assumed that the shareholder will redeem first the lot of Class A shares which will incur the lowest CDSC. Any CDSC imposed on a redemption of Class A shares is paid to the Distributor. The manner of calculating the CDSC on Class A shares is described below under “Calculation of CDSC on Shares Purchased After December 31, 2001.”

The Class A CDSC does not apply to Class A shares of the Money Market Fund. However, if Class A shares of this Fund are purchased in a transaction that, for any other Fund, would be subject to the CDSC (i.e., a purchase of $1,000,000 or more ($249,999 or more in the case of the California Short Duration Municipal Income, Floating Income, Low Duration, Short Duration Municipal Income and Short-Term Funds)) and are subsequently exchanged for Class A shares of any other Fund, a Class A CDSC will apply to the shares of the Fund(s) acquired by exchange for a period of 18 months from the date of the exchange.

The Class A CDSC is currently waived in connection with certain redemptions as described above under “Alternative Purchase Arrangements—Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges.” For more information about the Class A CDSC, call the Distributor at 1-800-426-0107.

For Class A shares outstanding for 18 months or more, the Distributor may also pay participating brokers annual servicing fees of 0.25% (0.10% for the Money Market Fund) of the net asset value of such shares.

Deferred Sales Charge Alternative – Class B Shares

Class B shares are sold at their current net asset value without any initial sales charge. The full amount of an investor’s purchase payment will be invested in shares of the Fund(s) selected.

Calculation of CDSC on Shares Purchased On or Before December 31, 2001. A CDSC will be imposed on Class B shares if an investor redeems an amount which causes the current value of the investor’s account for a Fund to fall below the total dollar amount of purchase payments subject to the CDSC, except that no CDSC is imposed if the shares redeemed have been acquired through the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions or if the

SG-25

amount redeemed is derived from increases in the value of the account above the amount of purchase payments subject to the CDSC. The manner of calculating the CDSC on Class B shares purchased after December 31, 2001 differs and is described below under “Calculation of CDSC on Shares Purchased After December 31, 2001.

Class B shares of the Low Duration, Money Market and Short-Term Funds are not offered for initial purchase but may be obtained through exchanges of Class B shares of other Funds. See “Exchange Privilege” below. Class B shares are not available for purchase by employer sponsored retirement plans.

Whether a CDSC is imposed and the amount of the CDSC will depend on the number of years since the investor made a purchase payment from which an amount is being redeemed. Class B shares of the All Asset, Diversified Income, Emerging Markets Bond, Foreign Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), Global Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), GNMA, High Yield, Long-Term U.S. Government, Mortgage-Backed Securities, StocksPLUS^® Total Return and Total Return Funds purchased prior to October 1, 2004 and all other series of PIMCO Trust (except the Money Market Fund) and each series of the Allianz Trust and the Multi-Strategy Trust purchased at any time are subject to the CDSC according to the following schedule:

Years Since Purchase Payment was Made	Percentage Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
First	5
Second	4
Third	3
Fourth	3
Fifth	2
Sixth	1
Seventh and thereafter	0*

* After the seventh year, Class B shares of the series of the PIMCO Trust purchased on or before December 31, 2001 and Class B shares of series of the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds not listed above purchased after September 30, 2004 convert into Class A shares as described below. Class B shares of the series of the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds purchased after December 31, 2001 but before October 1, 2004 convert into Class A shares after the eighth year.

Class B shares of All Asset, Diversified Income, Emerging Markets Bond, Foreign Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), Global Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), GNMA, High Yield, Long-Term U.S. Government, Mortgage-Backed Securities, StocksPLUS^® Total Return and Total Return Funds purchased on or after October 1, 2004 are subject to the CDSC according to the following schedule:

SG-26

Years Since Purchase Payment was Made	Percentage Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
First	3.50
Second	2.75
Third	2.00
Fourth	1.25
Fifth	0.50
Sixth and thereafter	0*

* After the fifth year, Class B shares of All Asset, Diversified Income, Emerging Markets Bond, Foreign Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), Global Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), GNMA, High Yield, Long-Term U.S. Government, Mortgage-Backed Securities, StocksPLUS^® Total Return and Total Return Funds purchased on or after October 1, 2004 will convert into Class A shares.

In determining whether a CDSC is payable on shares purchased on or before December 31, 2001, it is assumed that the shareholder will redeem first the lot of shares which will incur the lowest CDSC.

The following example will illustrate the operation of the Class B CDSC on shares purchased on or before December 31, 2001:

Assume that an individual opens a Fund account and makes a purchase payment of $10,000 for Class B shares of a Fund and that six months later the value of the investor’s account for that Fund has grown through investment performance and reinvestment of distributions to $11,000. The investor then may redeem up to $1,000 from that Fund account ($11,000 minus $10,000) without incurring a CDSC. If the investor should redeem $3,000 from that Fund account, a CDSC would be imposed on $2,000 of the redemption (the amount by which the investor’s account for the Fund was reduced below the amount of the purchase payment). At the rate of 5%, the Class B CDSC would be $100.

In determining whether an amount is available for redemption without incurring a CDSC, the purchase payments made for all Class B shares in the shareholder’s account for the particular Fund are aggregated, and the current value of all such shares is aggregated. Any CDSC imposed on a redemption of Class B shares is paid to the Distributor.

Class B shares are subject to higher distribution fees than Class A shares for a fixed period after their purchase, after which they automatically convert to Class A shares and are no longer subject to such higher distribution fees. Class B shares of the All Asset, Diversified Income, Emerging Markets Bond, Foreign Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), Global Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), GNMA, High Yield, Long-Term U.S. Government, Mortgage-Backed Securities, StocksPLUS^® Total Return and Total Return Funds purchased on or after October 1, 2004 automatically convert into Class A shares after they have been held for five years (seven years for Class B shares purchased on or before December 31, 2001 and eight years for Class B shares purchased after December 31, 2001 but before September 30, 2004). Class B shares of each series of the Allianz Trust and the PIMCO Trust not listed above automatically convert into Class A shares after they have been held for seven years (eight years for Class B shares purchased after December 31, 2001 but before October 1, 2004).

SG-27

For sales of Class B shares made and services rendered to Class B shareholders, the Distributor intends to make payments to participating brokers, at the time a shareholder purchases Class B shares, of 4.00% of the purchase amount for each of the Funds (except in the case of the All Asset Fund, Diversified Income Fund, Emerging Markets Bond Fund, Foreign Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) Fund, Global Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) Fund, GNMA Fund, High Yield Fund, Long-Term U.S. Government Fund, Mortgage-Backed Securities Fund, StocksPLUS^® Total Return Fund and Total Return Funds, for which such payments will be at the rate of 3.00% of the purchase amount). For Class B shares outstanding for one year or more, the Distributor may also pay participating brokers annual servicing fees of 0.25% of the net asset value of such shares. Financial intermediaries that receive distribution and/or servicing fees may in turn pay and/or reimburse all or a portion of those fees to their customers. During such periods as may from time to time be designated by the Distributor, the Distributor will pay selected participating brokers an additional amount of up to 0.50% of the purchase price on sales of Class B shares of all or selected Funds purchased to each participating broker which obtains purchase orders in amounts exceeding thresholds established from time to time by the Distributor.

The Class B CDSC is currently waived in connection with certain redemptions as described above under “Alternative Purchase Arrangements—Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges.” For more information about the Class B CDSC, call the Distributor at 1-800-426-0107.

Calculation of CDSC on Shares Purchased After December 31, 2001. The manner of calculating the CDSC on Class B and Class C shares (and where applicable, Class A shares) purchased after December 31, 2001 differs from that described above.

Under the new calculation method, for shares purchased after December 31, 2001, the following rules apply:

• Shares acquired through the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions will be redeemed first and will not be subject to any CDSC.

• For the redemption of all other shares, the CDSC will be based on either the shareholder’s original purchase price or the then current net asset value of the shares being sold, whichever is lower.

• CDSCs will be deducted from the proceeds of the shareholder’s redemption, not from amounts remaining in the shareholder’s account.

• In determining whether a CDSC is payable, it is assumed that the shareholder will redeem first the lot of shares which will incur the lowest CDSC.

SG-28

The following example illustrates the operation of the Class B CDSC on Class B shares purchased after December 31, 2001:

Assume that an individual opens an account and makes a purchase payment of $10,000 for 1,000 Class B shares of a Fund (at $10 per share) and that six months later the value of the investor’s account for that Fund has grown through investment performance to $11,000 ($11 per share). If the investor should redeem $2,200 (200 shares), a CDSC would be applied against $2,000 of the redemption (the purchase price of the shares redeemed, because the purchase price is lower than the current net asset value of such shares ($2,200)). At the rate of 5%, the Class B CDSC would be $100.

For investors investing in Class B shares through a financial intermediary, it is the responsibility of the financial intermediary to ensure that the investor is credited with the proper holding period for the shares redeemed.

Except as otherwise disclosed herein or in the appropriate Prospectus(es), Class B shares that are received in an exchange will be subject to a CDSC to the same extent as the shares exchanged. In addition, Class B shares that are received in an exchange will convert into Class A shares at the same time as the original shares would have converted into Class A shares. For example, Class B shares of the Allianz Trust received in an exchange for Class B shares of the PIMCO Trust purchased on or after October 1, 2004, will convert into Class A shares after the fifth year. Class C shares received in exchange for Class C shares with a different CDSC period will have the same CDSC period as the shares exchanged. Furthermore, shares that are received in an exchange will be subject to the same CDSC calculation as the shares exchanged. In other words, shares received in exchange for shares purchased on or before December 31, 2001 will be subject to the same manner of CDSC calculation as the shares exchanged.

Conversion of Class B Shares Purchased Through Reinvestment of Distributions. For purposes of determining the date on which Class B shares convert into Class A shares, a Class B share purchased through the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions (a “Distributed Share”) will be considered to have been purchased on the purchase date (or deemed purchase date) of the Class B share through which such Distributed Share was issued.

Asset Based Sales Charge Alternative – Class C Shares

Class C shares are sold at their current net asset value without any initial sales charge. A CDSC is imposed on Class C shares if an investor redeems an amount which causes the current value of the investor’s account for a Fund to fall below the total dollar amount of purchase payments subject to the CDSC, except that no CDSC is imposed if the shares redeemed have been acquired through the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions or if the amount redeemed is derived from increases in the value of the account above the amount of purchase payments subject to the CDSC. All of an investor’s purchase payments are invested in shares of the Fund(s) selected.

SG-29

Whether a CDSC is imposed and the amount of the CDSC will depend on the number of years since the investor made a purchase payment from which an amount is being redeemed. Purchases are subject to the CDSC according to the following schedule:

Years Since Purchase Payment was Made	Percentage Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
First*	1
Thereafter	0

* Shares of the CommodityRealReturn Strategy, International StocksPLUS^® TR Strategy (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), RealEstateRealReturn Strategy, NACM Emerging Markets Opportunities, NACM Global, NACM Global 130/30, NACM International, NACM Pacific Rim, NFJ International Value, RCM All Horizons, RCM Healthcare, RCM Global EcoTrends^SM, RCM Global Resources, RCM Global Small-Cap, RCM Global Water, RCM International Growth Equity, RCM International Opportunities and RCM Technology Funds are subject to the Class C CDSC for the first eighteen months after purchase.

Any CDSC imposed on a redemption of Class C shares is paid to the Distributor. For investors investing in Class C shares through a financial intermediary, it is the responsibility of the financial intermediary to ensure that the investor is credited with the proper holding period for the shares redeemed. Unlike Class B shares, Class C shares do not automatically convert to any other class of shares of the Funds.

The manner of calculating the CDSC on Class C shares is the same as that of Class B shares purchased after December 31, 2001, as described above under “Calculation of CDSC on Shares Purchased After December 31, 2001.”

Except as described below, for sales of Class C shares made and services rendered to Class C shareholders, the Distributor expects to make payments to participating brokers, at the time the shareholder purchases Class C shares, of 1.00% (representing 0.75% distribution fees and 0.25% servicing fees) of the purchase amount for all Funds, except the Floating Income, Low Duration, Money Market, Municipal Bond, Real Return, Short Duration Municipal Income, Short-Term and StocksPLUS^® Funds. For the Low Duration, Municipal Bond, Real Return and StocksPLUS^® Funds, the Distributor expects to make payments of 0.75% (representing 0.50% distribution fees and 0.25% service fees); for the Floating Income, Short-Duration Municipal Income and Short-Term Funds, the Distributor expects to make payments of 0.55% (representing 0.30% distribution fees and 0.25% service fees); and for the Money Market Fund, the Distributor expects to make no payment. For sales of Class C shares made to participants making periodic purchases of not less than $50 through certain employer sponsored savings plans which are clients of a broker-dealer with which the Distributor has an agreement with respect to such purchases, no payments are made at the time of purchase. Financial intermediaries that receive distribution and/or service fees may in turn pay and/or reimburse all or a portion of these fees to their customers. During such periods as may from time to time be designated by the Distributor, the Distributor will pay an additional amount of up to 0.50% of the purchase price on sales of Class C shares of all or selected Funds purchased to each participating broker which obtains purchase orders in amounts exceeding thresholds established from time to time by the Distributor.

SG-30

In addition, after the time of shareholder purchase for sales of Class C shares made and services rendered to Class C shareholders, the Distributor expects to make annual payments to participating brokers as follows:

Fund	Annual Service Fee*		Annual Distribution Fee*		Total
Low Duration, Real Return, Municipal Bond and StocksPLUS® Funds	0.25	%	0.45	%	0.70	%
Floating Income, Short-Term and Short Duration Municipal Income Funds	0.25	%	0.25	%	0.50	%
Money Market Fund	0.10	%	0.00	%	0.10	%
CommodityRealReturn Strategy, Developing Local Markets, Fundamental IndexPLUS™ TR, International StocksPLUS® TR Strategy (Unhedged), International StocksPLUS® TR Strategy (U.S. Dollar- Hedged, RealEstateRealReturn Strategy, NACM Global, NACM Global Equity 130/30, NACM Pacific Rim, RCM All Horizons, RCM Disciplined Equity, RCM Global EcoTrendsSM, RCM Global Resources, RCM Global Small-Cap, RCM Global Water, RCM Healthcare, RCM International Growth Equity, RCM International Opportunities and RCM Technology Funds	0.25	%	0.75	%	1.00	%
All other Funds	0.25	%	0.65	%	0.90	%

* Paid with respect to shares outstanding for one year or more (or a shorter period if the Distributor has an agreement with the broker to that effect) so long as such shares remain outstanding, and calculated as a percentage of the net asset value of such shares.

SG-31

The Class C CDSC is currently waived in connection with certain redemptions as described above under “Alternative Purchase Arrangements—Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges.” For more information about the Class C CDSC, contact the Distributor at 1-800-426-0107.

No Sales Charge Alternative – Class R Shares

Class R shares are sold at their current net asset value without any initial sales charge. The full amount of the investor’s purchase payment will be invested in shares of the Fund(s). Class R shares are not subject to a CDSC upon redemption by an investor. For sales of Class R shares made and services rendered to Class R shareholders, the Distributor expects to make payments to participating brokers and, with respect to servicing fees, other financial intermediaries (which may include specified benefit plans, their service providers and their sponsors), at the time the shareholder purchases Class R shares, of up to 0.50% (representing up to 0.25% distribution fees and up to 0.25% servicing fees) of the purchase.

Information For All Share Classes

Brokers and other financial intermediaries provide varying arrangements for their clients to purchase and redeem Fund shares. Some may establish higher minimum investment requirements than set forth above. Firms may arrange with their clients for other investment or administrative services and may independently establish and charge transaction fees and/or other additional amounts to their clients for such services, which charges would reduce clients’ return. Firms also may hold Fund shares in nominee or street name as agent for and on behalf of their customers. In such instances, the Trusts’ transfer agent will have no information with respect to or control over accounts of specific shareholders. Such shareholders may obtain access to their accounts and information about their accounts only from their broker. In addition, certain privileges with respect to the purchase and redemption of shares or the reinvestment of dividends may not be available through such firms. Some firms may participate in a program allowing them access to their clients’ accounts for servicing including, without limitation, transfers of registration and dividend payee changes; and may perform functions such as generation of confirmation statements and disbursement of cash dividends.

The Distributor, the Funds’ administrators and their affiliates (and, in the case of series of the Multi-Strategy Trust, the Funds themselves) make payments to selected financial intermediaries (such as brokers or third-party administrators) for providing shareholder services to shareholders holding Fund shares in nominee or street name, including, without limitation, the following services: processing and mailing trade confirmations, monthly statements, prospectuses, annual reports, semi-annual reports and shareholder notices and other SEC required communications; capturing and processing tax data; issuing and mailing dividend checks to shareholders who have selected cash distributions; preparing record date shareholder

SG-32

lists for proxy solicitations; collecting and posting distributions to shareholder accounts; and establishing and maintaining systematic withdrawals and automated investment plans and shareholder account registrations. These payments are made to financial intermediaries selected by the Distributor, the Administrator and/or their affiliates. The actual services provided, and the payments made for such services, vary from firm to firm. For these services, the Distributor, an administrator and their affiliates pay (i) annual per account charges that in the aggregate generally range from $0 to $6 per account, and in some cases up to $12 per account, for networking fees for NSCC-cleared accounts and from $13 to $19 per account for services to omnibus accounts, or (ii) an annual fee at a rate of up to 0.25%, and in some cases up to 0.35%, of the value of the assets in the relevant accounts. These payments may be material to financial intermediaries relative to other compensation paid by the Funds and/or the Distributor, an administrator and their affiliates and may be in addition to any (i) distribution and/or servicing (12b-1) fees and (ii) revenue sharing or “shelf space” fees described elsewhere herein paid to such financial intermediaries. The payments described above may differ depending on the Fund and may vary from amounts paid to the Trusts’ transfer agents for providing similar services to other accounts. The Distributor and the Funds’ administrators do not audit the financial intermediaries to determine whether such intermediary is providing the services for which they are receiving such payments.

In addition, the Distributor, the Funds’ administrators and their affiliates from time to time make additional payments such as cash bonuses or provide other incentives to selected participating brokers and other financial intermediaries as compensation for the sale or servicing of Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R shares of the Funds including, without limitation, providing the Funds with “shelf space” or a higher profile for the financial intermediaries’ financial consultants and their customers, placing the Funds on the financial intermediaries’ preferred or recommended fund list, or otherwise identifying the Funds as being part of a complex to be accorded a higher degree of marketing support than complexes not making such payments, granting the Distributor access to the financial intermediaries’ financial consultants (including through the firms’ intranet websites) in order to promote the Funds, promotions in communications with financial firms’ customers such as in the firms’ internet websites or in customer newsletters, providing assistance in training and educating the financial intermediaries’ personnel, and furnishing marketing support and other specified services. The actual services provided, and the payments made for such services, vary from firm to firm. These payments may be significant to the financial intermediaries and may also take the form of sponsorship of seminars or informational meetings or payment for attendance by persons associated with the financial intermediaries at seminars or informational meetings.

A number of factors will be considered in determining the amount of these additional payments to financial intermediaries. On some occasions, such payments are conditioned upon levels of sales, including the sale of a specified minimum dollar amount of the shares of a Fund, all other series of any of the Trusts, other funds sponsored by the Distributor and/or a particular class of shares, during a specified period of time. The Distributor also makes payments to certain participating financial intermediaries based upon factors such as the amount of assets a financial intermediary’s clients have invested in the Funds and the quality of the financial intermediary’s relationship with the Distributor, the Funds’ administrators and their affiliates.

SG-33

The additional payments described above are made from the Distributor’s or administrator’s (or their affiliates’) own assets pursuant to agreements with financial intermediaries and do not change the price paid by investors for the purchase of a Fund’s shares or the amount a Fund will receive as proceeds from such sales. These payments are made to financial intermediaries selected by the Distributor, the administrators or their affiliates, generally to the financial intermediaries that have sold significant amounts of shares of the Funds. The level of payments made to a financial intermediary in any future year will vary and generally will not exceed the sum of (a) 0.10% of such year’s fund sales by that financial intermediary and (b) 0.06% of the assets attributable to that financial intermediary invested in equity funds sponsored by the Distributor and 0.03% of the assets invested in fixed-income funds sponsored by the Distributor. In certain cases, the payments described in the preceding sentence are subject to certain minimum payment levels. In some cases, in lieu of payments pursuant to the foregoing formulae, the Distributor, the administrators and their affiliates make payments of an agreed-upon amount which normally will not exceed the amount that would have been payable pursuant to the formulae. There are a few relationships on different bases. In some cases, in addition to the payments described above, the Distributor, the administrators and their affiliates will make payments for special events such as a conference or seminar sponsored by one of such financial intermediaries.

If investment advisers, distributors or affiliates of mutual funds pay bonuses and incentives in differing amounts, financial intermediaries and their financial consultants may have financial incentives for recommending a particular mutual fund over other mutual funds. In addition, depending on the arrangements in place at any particular time, a financial intermediary and its financial consultants may also have a financial incentive for recommending a particular share class over other share classes. You should consult with your financial advisor and review carefully any disclosure by the financial intermediary as to compensation received by your financial advisor.

Wholesale representatives of the Distributor, the administrators and their affiliates visit brokerage firms on a regular basis to educate financial advisors about the Funds and to encourage the sale of Fund shares to their clients. The costs and expenses associated with these efforts may include travel, lodging, sponsorship at educational seminars and conferences, entertainment and meals to the extent permitted by law.

Although the Funds use financial intermediaries that sell Fund shares to effect transactions for the Funds’ portfolios, the Fund, the Advisers and the Sub-Advisers will not consider the sale of Fund shares as a factor when choosing financial intermediaries to effect those transactions.

This Guide and the Retail Prospectuses should be read in connection with financial intermediaries’ material regarding their fees and services.

SG-34

The sales charges and payments discussed in this Guide are subject to change by means of a new or supplemented Prospectus or Shareholders’ Guide. Unless otherwise noted, a change to a sales charge will not apply to shares purchased prior to the effective date of the change.

Exchange Privilege

Except with respect to exchanges for shares of Funds for which sales may be suspended to new investors or as provided in the applicable Retail Prospectus or in this Guide, a shareholder may exchange Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R shares of any Fund for the same Class of shares of any other Fund in an account with identical registration on the basis of their respective net asset values, minus any applicable Redemption Fee (see the subsection “Redemption Fees” under the section “How to Redeem” below), except that a sales charge will apply on exchanges of Class A shares of the Money Market Fund on which no sales charge was paid at the time of purchase. For Class R shares, specified benefit plans may also limit exchanges to Funds offered as investment options in the plan and exchanges may only be made through the plan administrator. Class A shares of the Money Market Fund may be exchanged for Class A shares of any other Fund, but the usual sales charges applicable to investments in such other Fund apply on shares for which no sales charge was paid at the time of purchase. There are currently no other exchange fees or charges. Exchanges are subject to any minimum initial purchase requirements for each share class of each Fund, except with respect to exchanges effected through the Trusts’ Auto-Exchange plan. An exchange will constitute a taxable sale for federal income tax purposes.

Investors who maintain their account with the Distributor may exchange shares by a written exchange request sent to Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, P.O. Box 9688, Providence, RI 02940-0926 or, unless the investor has specifically declined telephone exchange privileges on the account application or elected in writing not to utilize telephone exchanges, by a telephone request to the Distributor at 1-800-426-0107. Each Trust will employ reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine, and may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions if it fails to employ such procedures. Each Trust will require a form of personal identification prior to acting on a caller’s telephone instructions, will provide written confirmations of such transactions and will record telephone instructions. Exchange forms are available from the Distributor at 1-800-426-0107 and may be used if there will be no change in the registered name or address of the shareholder. Changes in registration information or account privileges may be made in writing to the Transfer Agent, PNC Global Investment Servicing, Inc., P.O. Box 9688, Providence, RI 02940-9688, or by use of forms which are available from the Distributor. A signature guarantee is required. See “How to Buy Shares—Signature Guarantee.” Telephone exchanges may be made between 9:00 a.m., Eastern time and the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange on any day the Exchange is open (generally weekdays other than normal holidays).

SG-35

The Trusts reserve the right to refuse exchange purchases (or purchase and redemption and/or redemption and purchase transactions) if, in the judgment of an Adviser or a Fund’s Sub-Adviser, such transaction would adversely affect a Fund and its shareholders. In particular, a pattern of transactions characteristic of “market timing” strategies may be deemed by an Adviser to be detrimental to a Trust or a particular Fund. Although the Trusts have no current intention of terminating or modifying the exchange privilege, each reserves the right to do so at any time. Except as otherwise permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, each Trust will give 60 days’ advance notice to shareholders of any termination or material modification of the exchange privilege. Because the Funds will not always be able to detect market timing activity, investors should not assume that the Funds will be able to detect or prevent all market timing or other trading practices that may disadvantage the Funds. For example, it is more difficult for the Funds to monitor trades that are placed by omnibus or other nominee accounts because the broker, retirement plan administrator, fee-based program sponsor or other financial intermediary maintains the record of the applicable Fund’s underlying beneficial owners. For further information about exchange privileges, contact your participating broker or call the Distributor at 1-800-426-0107.

With respect to Class B and Class C shares, or Class A shares subject to a CDSC, if less than all of an investment is exchanged out of a Fund, any portion of the investment exchanged will be from the lot of shares which would incur the lowest CDSC if such shares were being redeemed rather than exchanged.

Except as otherwise disclosed in the applicable Prospectus(es), shares that are received in an exchange will be subject to the same CDSC as the shares exchanged. For example, Class C shares that have a twelve-month CDSC period received in exchange for Class C shares that have an eighteen-month CDSC period will have the same CDSC period as the shares exchanged (in this case, eighteen months).

Shareholders should take into account the effect of any exchange on the applicability of any CDSC that may be imposed upon any subsequent redemption.

Investors may also select the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Exchange plan which establishes automatic periodic exchanges. For further information on automatic exchanges see “How to Buy Shares—Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Auto-Exchange” above.

Abusive Trading Practices

The Trusts encourage shareholders to invest in the Funds as part of a long-term investment strategy and discourage excessive, short-term trading and other abusive trading practices, sometimes referred to as “market timing.” However, because the Trusts will not always be able to detect market timing or other abusive trading activity, investors should not assume that each Trust will be able to detect or prevent all market timing or other trading practices that may disadvantage the Funds.

SG-36

Certain of the Funds’ investment strategies may make the Funds more susceptible to market timing activities. For example, since certain Funds may invest in non-U.S. securities, they may be subject to the risk that an investor may seek to take advantage of a delay between the change in value of the Funds’ non-U.S. portfolio securities and the determination of the Funds’ net asset value as a result of different closing times of U.S. and non-U.S. markets by buying or selling fund shares at a price that does not reflect their true value. A similar risk exists for the Funds’ potential investment in securities of smaller capitalization companies, high-yield securities, securities of issuers located in emerging markets or high yield securities that are thinly traded and therefore may have actual values that differ from their market prices.

To discourage excessive, short-term trading and other abusive trading practices, the Trusts’ Boards of Trustees have adopted policies and procedures reasonably designed to detect and prevent short-term trading activity that may be harmful to the Funds and their shareholders. Such activities may have a detrimental effect on the Funds and their shareholders. For example, depending upon various factors such as the size of a Fund and the amount of its assets maintained in cash, short-term or excessive trading by Fund shareholders may interfere with the efficient management of a Fund’s portfolio, increase transaction costs and taxes, and may harm the performance of a Fund and its shareholders.

The Trusts seek to deter and prevent abusive trading practices, and to reduce these risks, through several methods. First, the Trusts impose redemption fees on shares of certain Funds redeemed or exchanged within a given period after their purchase. The purpose of redemption fees is to deter excessive, short-term trading and other abusive trading practices and to help offset the costs associated with the sale of portfolio securities to satisfy redemption and exchange requests. See “Redemption Fees” below for further information.

Second, to the extent that there is a delay between a change in the value of a mutual fund’s portfolio holdings, and the time when that change is reflected in the net asset value of the fund’s shares, the fund is exposed to the risk that investors may seek to exploit this delay by purchasing or redeeming shares at net asset values that do not reflect appropriate fair value prices. The Trusts seek to deter and prevent this activity, sometimes referred to as “stale price arbitrage,” by the appropriate use of “fair value” pricing of the Funds’ portfolio securities.

Third, the Trusts seek to monitor shareholder account activities in order to detect and prevent excessive and disruptive trading practices. The Trusts and the Advisers each reserve the right to restrict or refuse any purchase or exchange transaction if, in the judgment of the Trusts or of the Advisers, the transaction may adversely affect the interests of a Fund or its shareholders. Among other things, the Trusts and their service providers may monitor for any patterns of frequent purchases and sales that appear to be made in response to short-term fluctuations in share price, and may also monitor for any attempts to improperly avoid the imposition of Redemption Fees. Notice of any restrictions or rejections of transactions may vary according to the particular circumstances.

SG-37

Although the Trusts and their service providers seek to use these methods to detect and prevent abusive trading activities, and although the Trusts will consistently apply such methods, there can be no assurances that such activities can be detected, mitigated or eliminated. By their nature, omnibus accounts, in which purchases and sales of Fund shares by multiple investors are aggregated for presentation to the Fund on a net basis, conceal the identity of the individual investors from the Fund because the broker, retirement plan administrator, fee-based program sponsor or other financial intermediary maintains the record of each Fund’s underlying beneficial owners. This makes it more difficult for the Funds to identify short-term transactions in the Funds. Although the Trusts and their service providers may seek to review trading activity at the omnibus account level in order to identify abusive trading practices with respect to the Funds, there can be no assurance of success in this regard.

How to Redeem

Class A, Class B, Class C or Class R shares may be redeemed through a participating broker, by telephone, by submitting a written redemption request directly to the Transfer Agent (for non-broker accounts) or through an Automatic Withdrawal Plan or Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Fund Link, if available. Class R shares may be redeemed only through the plan administrator, and not directly by the plan participant.

A CDSC may apply to a redemption of Class A, Class B or Class C shares. See “Alternative Purchase Arrangements” above. Shares are redeemed at their net asset value next determined after a redemption request has been received as described below, less any applicable CDSC and the Redemption Fee. There is no charge by the Distributor (other than an applicable CDSC) with respect to a redemption; however, a participating broker who processes a redemption for an investor may charge customary commissions for its services (which may vary). Dealers and other financial services firms are obligated to transmit orders promptly. Requests for redemption received by dealers or other firms prior to the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange on a regular business day and received by the Distributor prior to the close of the Distributor’s business day will be confirmed at the net asset value effective at the closing of the Exchange on that day, less any applicable CDSC.

Other than an applicable CDSC or Redemption Fee (see the subsection “Redemption Fees” below), a shareholder will not pay any special fees or charges to a Trust or the Distributor when the shareholder sells his or her shares. However, if a shareholder sells his or her shares through their broker, dealer or other financial intermediary, that firm may charge the shareholder a commission or other fee for processing the shareholder’s redemption request.

Redemptions of Fund shares may be suspended when trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted or during an emergency which makes it impracticable for the Funds to dispose of their securities or to determine fairly the value of their net assets, or during any other period as permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission for the protection of investors. Under these and other unusual circumstances, the Trusts may suspend redemptions or postpone payments for more than seven days, as permitted by law.

SG-38

Direct Redemption

A shareholder’s original account application permits the shareholder to redeem by written request and by telephone (unless the shareholder specifically elects not to utilize telephone redemptions) and to elect one or more of the additional redemption procedures described below. A shareholder may change the instructions indicated on his original account application, or may request additional redemption options, only by transmitting a written direction to the Transfer Agent. Requests to institute or change any of the additional redemption procedures will require a signature guarantee.

Redemption proceeds will normally be mailed to the redeeming shareholder within seven days or, in the case of wire transfer or Fund Link redemptions, sent to the designated bank account within one business day. Fund Link redemptions may be received by the bank on the second or third business day. In cases where shares have recently been purchased by personal check, redemption proceeds may be withheld until the check has been collected, which may take up to 15 days. To avoid such withholding, investors should purchase shares by certified or bank check or by wire transfer.

Written Requests

To redeem shares in writing (whether or not represented by certificates), a shareholder must send the following items to the Transfer Agent, PNC Global Investment Servicing, Inc., P.O. Box 9688, Providence, RI 02940-9688:

(1) a written request for redemption signed by all registered owners exactly as the account is registered on the Transfer Agent’s records, including fiduciary titles, if any, and specifying the account number and the dollar amount or number of shares to be redeemed;

(2) for certain redemptions described below, a guarantee of all signatures on the written request or on the share certificate or accompanying stock power, if required, as described under “How to Buy Shares—Signature Guarantee”;

(3) any share certificates issued for any of the shares to be redeemed (see “Certificated Shares” below); and

(4) any additional documents which may be required by the Transfer Agent for redemption by corporations, partnerships or other organizations, executors, administrators, trustees, custodians or guardians, or if the redemption is requested by anyone other than the shareholder(s) of record.

SG-39

Transfers of shares are subject to the same requirements. A signature guarantee is not required for a redemption requested by and payable to all shareholders of record for the account that is to be sent to the address of record for that account. To avoid delay in redemption or transfer, shareholders having any questions about these requirements should contact the Transfer Agent in writing or call the Distributor at 1-800-426-0107 before submitting a request. Redemption or transfer requests will not be honored until all required documents have been completed by the shareholder and received by the Transfer Agent. This redemption option does not apply to shares held in broker “street name” accounts. Shareholders whose shares are held in broker “street name” accounts must redeem through their broker. Plan participants must redeem through their plan administrator.

If the proceeds of the redemption (i) are to be paid to a person other than the record owner, (ii) are to be sent to an address other than the address of the account on the Transfer Agent’s records or (iii) are to be paid to a corporation, partnership, trust or fiduciary, the signature(s) on the redemption request and on the certificates, if any, or stock power must be guaranteed as described above, except that the Distributor may waive the signature guarantee requirement for redemptions up to $2,500 by a trustee of a qualified specified benefit plan, the administrator for which has an agreement with the Distributor.

Telephone Redemptions

Each Trust accepts telephone requests for redemption of uncertificated shares, except for investors who have specifically declined telephone redemption privileges on the account application or elected in writing not to utilize telephone redemptions. The proceeds of a telephone redemption will be sent to the record shareholder at his record address. Changes in account information must be made in a written authorization with a signature guarantee. See “How to Buy Shares—Signature Guarantee.” Telephone redemptions will not be accepted during the 30-day period following any change in an account’s record address. This redemption option does not apply to shares held in broker “street name” accounts. Shareholders whose shares are held in broker “street name” accounts must redeem through their broker. Plan participants must redeem through their plan administrator.

By completing an account application, an investor agrees that the applicable Trust, the Distributor and the Transfer Agent shall not be liable for any loss incurred by the investor by reason of the Trust accepting unauthorized telephone redemption requests for his account if the Trust reasonably believes the instructions to be genuine. Thus, shareholders risk possible losses in the event of a telephone redemption not authorized by them. Each Trust may accept telephone redemption instructions from any person identifying himself as the owner of an account or the owner’s broker where the owner has not declined in writing to utilize this service. Each Trust will employ reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine, and may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions if it fails to employ such procedures. Each Trust will require a form of personal identification prior to acting on a caller’s telephone instructions, will provide written confirmations of such transactions and will record telephone instructions.

SG-40

A shareholder making a telephone redemption should call the Distributor at 1-800-426-0107 and state (i) the name of the shareholder as it appears on the Transfer Agent’s records, (ii) his account number with the applicable Trust, (iii) the amount to be withdrawn and (iv) the name of the person requesting the redemption. Usually the proceeds are sent to the investor on the next Trust business day after the redemption is effected, provided the redemption request is received prior to the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange that day. If the redemption request is received after the close of the New York Stock Exchange, the redemption is effected on the following Trust business day at that day’s net asset value and the proceeds are usually sent to the investor on the second following Trust business day. Each Trust reserves the right to terminate or modify the telephone redemption service at any time. During times of severe disruptions in the securities markets, the volume of calls may make it difficult to redeem by telephone, in which case a shareholder may wish to send a written request for redemption as described under “Written Requests” above. Telephone communications may be recorded by the Distributor or the Transfer Agent.

Fund Link Redemptions

If a shareholder has established Fund Link, the shareholder may redeem shares by telephone and have the redemption proceeds sent to a designated account at a financial institution. Fund Link is normally established within 45 days of receipt of a Fund Link application by the Transfer Agent. To use Fund Link for redemptions, call the Distributor at 1-800-426-0107. Subject to the limitations set forth above under “Telephone Redemptions,” the Distributor, a Trust and the Transfer Agent may rely on instructions by any registered owner believed to be genuine and will not be responsible to any shareholder for any loss, damage or expense arising out of such instructions. Requests received by the Transfer Agent prior to the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange on a business day will be processed at the net asset value on that day and the proceeds (less any CDSC) will normally be sent to the designated bank account on the following business day and received by the bank on the second or third business day. If the redemption request is received after the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the redemption is effected on the following business day. Shares purchased by check may not be redeemed through Fund Link until such shares have been owned (i.e., paid for) for at least 15 days. Fund Link may not be used to redeem shares held in certificated form.

Changes in bank account information must be made by completing a new Fund Link application, signed by all owners of record of the account, with all signatures guaranteed. See “How to Buy Shares—Signature Guarantee.” See “How to Buy Shares—Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Fund Link” for information on establishing the Fund Link privilege. Any of the Trusts may terminate the Fund Link program at any time without notice to its shareholders. This redemption option does not apply to shares held in broker “street name” accounts. Shareholders whose shares are held in broker “street name” accounts must redeem through their broker. Plan participants must redeem through their plan administrator. Fund Link may not be available to all Funds and/or share classes at the option of the Distributor.

SG-41

Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Automated Telephone System

Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Automated Telephone System (“ATS”) is an automated telephone system that enables shareholders to perform a number of account transactions automatically using a touch-tone telephone. ATS may be used on already-established Fund accounts after the shareholder obtains a Personal Identification Number (PIN) by calling the special ATS number: 1-800-223-2413.

Purchasing Shares. A shareholder may purchase shares by telephone by calling 1-800-223-2413. A shareholder must have established ATS privileges to link the shareholder’s bank account with the Fund to pay for these purchases.

Exchanging Shares. With the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds Exchange Privilege, a shareholder can exchange shares automatically by telephone from the shareholder’s Fund Link Account to another Allianz Funds or PIMCO Funds account the shareholder has already established by calling 1-800-223-2413. Please refer to “Exchange Privilege” for details.

Redemptions. A shareholder may redeem shares by telephone automatically by calling 1-800-223-2413 and the Fund will send the proceeds directly to the shareholder’s Fund bank account. Please refer to “How to Redeem” for details.

Plan participants must process their transactions through their plan administrator, and may not use ATS.

Expedited Wire Transfer Redemptions

If a shareholder has given authorization for expedited wire redemption, shares can be redeemed and the proceeds sent by federal wire transfer to a single previously designated bank account. Requests received by a Trust prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange will result in shares being redeemed that day at the next determined net asset value (less any CDSC or Redemption Fee). Normally the proceeds will be sent to the designated bank account the following business day. The bank must be a member of the Federal Reserve wire system. Delivery of the proceeds of a wire redemption request may be delayed by the applicable Trust for up to seven days if the Distributor deems it appropriate under then current market conditions. Once authorization is on file with a Trust, such Trust will honor requests by any person identifying himself as the owner of an account or the owner’s broker by telephone at 1-800-426-0107 or by written instructions. A Trust cannot be responsible for the efficiency of the Federal Reserve wire system or the shareholder’s bank. None of the Trusts currently charge for wire transfers. The shareholder is responsible for any charges imposed by the shareholder’s bank. The minimum amount that may be wired is $2,500. Each Trust reserves the right to change this minimum or to terminate the wire redemption privilege. Shares purchased by check may not be redeemed by wire transfer until such shares have been owned (i.e., paid for) for at least 15 days. Expedited wire transfer redemptions may be authorized by completing a form available from the

SG-42

Distributor. Wire redemptions may not be used to redeem shares in certificated form. To change the name of the single bank account designated to receive wire redemption proceeds, it is necessary to send a written request with signatures guaranteed to Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, P.O. Box 9688, Providence, RI 02940-0926. See “How to Buy Shares—Signature Guarantee.” This redemption option does not apply to shares held in broker “street name” accounts. Shareholders whose shares are held in broker “street name” accounts must redeem through their broker. Plan participants must redeem through their plan administrator.

Certificated Shares

To redeem shares for which certificates have been issued, the certificates must be mailed to or deposited with the applicable Trust, duly endorsed or accompanied by a duly endorsed stock power or by a written request for redemption. Signatures must be guaranteed as described under “How to Buy Shares—Signature Guarantee.” Further documentation may be requested from institutions or fiduciary accounts, such as corporations, custodians (e.g., under the Uniform Gifts to Minors Act), executors, administrators, trustees or guardians (“institutional account owners”). The redemption request and stock power must be signed exactly as the account is registered, including indication of any special capacity of the registered owner.

Automatic Withdrawal Plan

An investor who owns or buys shares of a Fund having a net asset value of $10,000 or more may open an Automatic Withdrawal Plan and have a designated sum of money paid monthly (or quarterly) to the investor or another person. Such a plan may be established by completing the appropriate section of the account application or by obtaining an Automatic Withdrawal Plan application from the Distributor or your broker. If an Automatic Withdrawal Plan is set up after the account is established providing for payment to a person other than the record shareholder or to an address other than the address of record, a signature guarantee is required. See “How to Buy Shares—Signature Guarantee.” In the case of Uniform Gifts to Minors or Uniform Transfers to Minors accounts, the application must state that the proceeds will be for the beneficial interest of the minor. Class A, Class B and Class C shares of any Fund are deposited in a plan account and all distributions are reinvested in additional shares of the particular class of the Fund at net asset value. Shares in a plan account are then redeemed at net asset value (less any applicable CDSC) to make each withdrawal payment. Any applicable CDSC may be waived for certain redemptions under an Automatic Withdrawal Plan. See “Alternative Purchase Arrangements—Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges.”

Redemptions for the purpose of withdrawals are ordinarily made on the business day selected by the investor at that day’s closing net asset value. Checks are normally mailed on the following business day. If the date selected by the investor falls on a weekend or holiday, the Transfer Agent will normally process the redemption on the preceding business day. Payment will be made to any person the investor designates; however, if the shares are registered in the name of a trustee or other fiduciary, payment will be made only to the fiduciary, except in the case of a profit-sharing or pension plan where payment will be made to the designee. As

SG-43

withdrawal payments may include a return of principal, they cannot be considered a guaranteed annuity or actual yield of income to the investor. The redemption of shares in connection with an Automatic Withdrawal Plan may result in a gain or loss for tax purposes. Continued withdrawals in excess of income will reduce and possibly exhaust invested principal, especially in the event of a market decline. The maintenance of an Automatic Withdrawal Plan concurrently with purchases of additional shares of the Fund would be disadvantageous to the investor because of the CDSC that may become payable on such withdrawals in the case of Class A, Class B or Class C shares and because of the initial sales charge in the case of Class A shares. For this reason, the minimum investment accepted for a Fund while an Automatic Withdrawal Plan is in effect for that Fund is $1,000, and an investor may not maintain a plan for the accumulation of shares of the Fund (other than through reinvestment of distributions) and an Automatic Withdrawal Plan at the same time. The Trusts or the Distributor may terminate or change the terms of the Automatic Withdrawal Plan at any time.

Because the Automatic Withdrawal Plan may involve invasion of capital, investors should consider carefully with their own financial advisers whether the plan and the specified amounts to be withdrawn are appropriate in their circumstances. The Trusts and the Distributor make no recommendations or representations in this regard.

Redemption Fees

As set forth in the relevant Prospectuses, investors in Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R shares of the Funds listed below are subject to a redemption fee, equal to 2.00% of the net asset value of the shares redeemed or exchanged (based upon the total redemption proceeds after any applicable deferred sales charges), on redemptions and exchanges made by the investor within a certain number of days after the shares’ acquisition (whether by purchase or exchange) (the “Redemption Fee”).

The following table indicates the applicable holding period for each Fund, if any. Shares redeemed or exchanged before the expiration of the holding period will be subject to the Redemption Fee. A new holding period begins on the day following each acquisition of shares through a purchase or exchange (other than a Share Class Conversion (as defined below)).

Redemption Fees are not currently imposed on redemptions and exchanges of the California Intermediate Municipal Bond, California Short Duration Municipal Income, GNMA, Low Duration, Money Market, Mortgage-Backed Securities, Municipal Bond, New York Municipal Bond, Real Return, RealRetirement 2010, RealRetirement 2020, RealRetirement 2030, RealRetirement 2040, RealRetirement 2050, Short Duration Municipal Income, Short-Term and Total Return Funds.

When calculating the Redemption Fee, shares that are not subject to a Redemption Fee (“Free Shares”), including, but not limited to, shares acquired through the reinvestment of dividends and distributions, will be considered redeemed first. If Free Shares are not sufficient to fulfill the redemption order, and in cases where redeeming shareholders hold shares acquired on different dates, the first-in/first-out (“FIFO”) method will be used to determine which additional shares are being redeemed, and therefore whether a Redemption Fee is payable. As a result, Free Shares will be redeemed prior to Fund shares that are subject to the fee. Redemption Fees are deducted from the amount to be received in connection with a redemption or exchange and are paid to the applicable Fund for the purpose of offsetting any costs associated with short-term trading, thereby insulating longer-term shareholders from such costs. In cases where redemptions are processed through financial intermediaries, there may be a delay between the time the shareholder redeems his or her shares and the payment of the Redemption Fee to the Fund, depending upon such financial intermediaries’ trade processing procedures and systems.

A new 7-day time period, or 30-day period where applicable, begins with the day following each acquisition of shares through a purchase or exchange (other than a Share Class Conversion (as defined below)). For example, a series of transactions in which shares of Fund A are exchanged for shares of Fund B 5 days after the purchase of the Fund A shares, followed in 5 days by an exchange of the Fund B shares for shares of Fund C, will be subject to two Redemption Fees (one on each exchange). With respect to a Share Class Conversion (as defined below), a shareholder’s holding period for the class of shares purchased will include the holding period of the other class of shares redeemed.

Redemption Fees are not paid separately, but are deducted from the amount to be received in connection with a redemption or exchange. Redemption Fees are paid to and retained by the Funds to defray certain costs described below and are not paid to or retained by the Advisers, a Fund’s Sub-Adviser, or the Distributor. Redemption Fees are not sales loads or contingent deferred sales charges.

SG-45

The purpose of the Redemption Fees is to deter excessive, short-term trading and other abusive trading practices, as described above under “Abusive Trading Practices,” and to help offset the costs associated with the sale of portfolio securities to satisfy redemption and exchange requests made by “market timers” and other short-term shareholders, thereby insulating longer-term shareholders from such costs. There is no assurance that the use of Redemption Fees will be successful in this regard.

Waivers of Redemption Fees. The Funds have elected not to impose the Redemption Fee in the following situations:

• redemptions and exchanges of Fund shares acquired through the reinvestment of dividends and distributions;

• redemptions or exchanges in connection with a systematic withdrawal plan (including an automatic exchange plan);

• certain types of redemptions and exchanges of Fund shares owned through participant-directed retirement plans (see below for details);

• redemptions or exchanges in a discretionary asset allocation or wrap program (“wrap programs”) that are made as a result of a full withdrawal from the wrap program;

• redemptions or exchanges that are initiated by the sponsor of a program as part of a periodic rebalancing, provided that such rebalancing occurs no more frequently than monthly;

• redemptions or exchanges by “Lifestyle Funds” (funds that have a predetermined asset mix tailored to the level of risk and return desired by particular investors) or participant accounts in defined contribution plans utilizing a similar model;

• redemptions or exchanges in connection with required minimum distributions from a wrap program, an IRA, a participant-directed retirement plan or any other employee benefit plan or account qualified under Section 401 of the Code;

• redemptions or exchanges in connection with distributions from a 529 plan;

• involuntary redemptions, such as those resulting from a shareholder’s failure to maintain a minimum investment in the Funds, or to pay shareholder fees;

• redemptions and exchanges effected by other mutual funds that are sponsored by an Adviser or its affiliates; and

• otherwise as an Adviser or the Trusts may determine in their sole discretion.

Additionally, no Redemption Fee applies to a redemption of shares of any class of shares of a Fund where the entirety of the proceeds of such redemption are immediately invested in another share class of the same Fund (a “Share Class Conversion”).

Applicability of Redemption Fees in Certain Participant-Directed Retirement Plans. Redemption Fees will not apply to the following transactions in participant-directed retirement

SG-46

plans (such as 401(k), 403(b), 457 and Keogh plans): 1) where the shares being redeemed were purchased with new contributions to the plan (e.g., payroll contributions, employer contributions, loan repayments); 2) redemptions made in connection with taking out a loan from the plan; 3) redemptions in connection with death, disability, forfeiture, hardship withdrawals, or qualified domestic relations orders; 4) redemptions made by a defined contribution plan in connection with a termination or restructuring of the plan; 5) redemptions made in connection with a participant’s termination of employment; and 6) redemptions or exchanges where the application of a Redemption Fee would cause a Fund, or an asset allocation program of which a Fund is a part, to fail to be considered a “qualified default investment alternative” under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder. Except as described in the next paragraph, Redemption Fees generally will apply to other participant-directed redemptions and exchanges. For example, if a participant takes shares of Fund A that were purchased with new contributions and exchanges them into Fund B, a Redemption Fee would not apply to that exchange. However, any subsequent participant-directed exchange of those shares from Fund B into Fund A or another fund may be subject to Redemption Fees, depending upon the holding period and subject to the exceptions described in this paragraph (and other limitations on imposing Redemption Fees, as discussed above).

In addition to the waivers described in the preceding paragraph for particular types of transactions in participant-directed retirement plans, the Allianz Trust and Multi-Strategy Trust will not apply Redemption Fees will not apply to any transactions in a retirement plan, provided that AGID has determined the plan to be eligible for a blanket waiver based on AGID’s assessment of the controls the plan and/or its sponsor, recordkeeper or financial intermediary has in place to identify and deter excessive short-term trading of Fund shares by participants in the plan.

Retirement plan sponsors, participant recordkeeping organizations and other financial intermediaries may also impose their own restrictions, limitations or fees in connection with transactions in the Funds’ shares in lieu of or in addition to the restrictions discussed above. These other restrictions may be stricter than those described in this section. You should contact your plan sponsor, recordkeeper or financial intermediary for more information on any differences in how the Redemption Fee is applied to your investments in the Funds, and whether any additional restrictions, limitations or fees are imposed in connection with transactions in Fund shares.

The Trusts may eliminate or modify the waivers enumerated above at any time, in their sole discretion. Shareholders will receive 60 days’ notice of any material changes to the Redemption Fee, unless otherwise permitted by law.

Redemptions In Kind

Each Trust agrees to redeem shares of its Funds solely in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the Fund’s net assets during any 90-day period for any one shareholder. In consideration of the best interests of the remaining shareholders, each Trust reserves the right to

SG-47

pay any redemption proceeds exceeding this amount in whole or in part by a distribution in kind of securities held by a Fund in lieu of cash. Except for Funds with a tax-efficient management strategy, it is highly unlikely that shares would ever be redeemed in kind. When shares are redeemed in kind, the redeeming shareholder should expect to incur transaction costs upon the disposition of the securities received in the distribution.
