FUND SUMMARY 
The investment seeks a high level of after-tax total return consistent with prudent risk. The fund normally invests at least 80% of total assets in municipal bonds, the interest on which is exempt from federal income tax and California State's personal income tax. It may invest up to 25% of total assets in lower-rated debt securities, which are rated below investment-grade by Moody's, S&P or other nationally recognized rating agencies, or comparable unrated securities.
