*Performance for the Growth Opportunities Fund reflects the Fund’s receipt in August, September and December 2009 of proceeds from litigation settlements and a receivable booked in December 2009 for amounts attributable to an SEC administrative proceeding. The Fund’s performance that includes those periods was higher than it would have been absent receipt of the proceeds from the litigation settlements and the booking of the receivable from the administrative proceeding.
Past performance does not guarantee future results. The performance data quoted represents past performance and current returns may be lower or higher. The investment return and principal will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed may be worth more or less than the original cost.
The recent growth rate in the stock market has helped produce short-term returns for some asset classes that are not typical and may not continue in the future. Because of ongoing market volatility, Fund performance may be subject to substantial short-term changes.
As identified in the current Fund prospectus, the Class A, B, C and R shares gross expense ratios for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 were 2.62%, 3.38%, 3.37% and 2.72%, respectively. The Fund publishes Semi-Annual and Annual Reports each February and August, which contain updated expense ratio information. In periods of market volatility, Fund assets may decline significantly, causing a Fund’s gross expense ratio to become higher than the gross expense ratio shown in the current prospectus.
The Advisor limited certain expenses of Class A, B, C and R shares of the Munder Internet Fund during the 1996 & 1998 calendar years. The Advisor also made a voluntary capital contribution to the Fund in the 2005 calendar year. In addition, the Fund's transfer agent limited certain expenses of Class A, B and C shares of the Fund during the 2002-2004 calendar years. Total returns would have been lower if expenses had not been limited expenses and had a capital contribution not been made during those periods.
Class A Shares have a maximum sales charge of 5.5% on Equity Funds (excluding the Index 500 Fund), 2.5% on the Index 500 Fund, 4% on the Bond Fund, and 2% on the Tax-Free Short & Intermediate Bond Fund.
Class B Shares of all Funds except the Index 500 Fund have a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (CDSC) on redemptions made within six years of purchase as follows: Year 1 = 5.0%, Year 2 = 4.0%, Year 3 = 3.0%, Year 4 = 3.0%, Year 5 = 2.0%, Year 6 = 1.0%. Class B Shares of the Index 500 Fund have a CDSC on redemptions made within six years of purchase as follows: Year 1 = 3.0%, Year 2 = 2.50%, Year 3 = 2.0%, Year 4 = 1.5%, Year 5 = 1.0%, Year 6 = 0.5%.
Class C Shares of all Funds have a 1.0% Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (CDSC) on redemptions made within one year of purchase.
Class R Shares are not subject to sales charges. Class R Shares are only available for purchase by limited types of investors, as outlined in the Fund’s prospectus.
Different sales charges affect performance and yields. |
