For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar
based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that
accounts for variation in a
monthly performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The Overall
Morningstar
for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five- and ten-year (if applicable)
Morningstar
metrics. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next
22.5% receive 2 stars and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may
cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

Key Terms: Alpha: Shows how a fund did relative to what would have been expected given the fund's beta and the performance of the benchmark index. For example, an alpha of 1.4 means that the fund outperformed its
estimated return (based on market activity alone) by 1.4%. Beta: Measures the volatility of the fund, as compared to that of the overall market. The
beta is set at 1.00; a beta higher than 1.00 is considered to be more
volatile than the market, while a beta lower than 1.00 is considered to be less volatile. Weighted Average Market Capitalization: The average of the weighted capitalizations of a
holdings. Price/Earnings Ratio
(P/E): The price of stock divided by its annual earnings per share. Price/Book Ratio (P/B): The ratio of a
price to its book value per share. R2 - (R-squared): A statistic that indicates how much of a
fluctuations were attributable to movements in the
benchmark index. Sharpe Ratio: Measures the potential reward offered by a mutual fund relative to its risk level using the fund's standard deviation and its excess
return to determine reward per unit of risk. The higher the sharpe ratio, the better the fund's historical risk-adjusted performance. Standard Deviation: Defines how widely returns varied from an average over a given period of
time. A higher standard deviation means a more volatile fund. For example, a fund with a standard deviation of 6 and an average annual return of 10% saw annualized monthly returns fall within 6 percentage points of that
average (or between 4% and 16%) two-thirds of the time.
