Fund Summary 
The investment seeks to provide shareholders with as high a level of income exempt from Federal income taxes as is consistent with the investment policies of the fund. The fund typically invests at least 80% of assets in municipal bonds. Although the fund intends to invest at least 65% of net assets in municipal bonds rated investment grade or in unrated municipal bonds that fund management believes are of comparable quality, it is possible that in the future the fund could invest up to 100% of its assets in "junk bonds." It usually invests in municipal bonds that have a maturity of five years or longer.
