The Forward Progressive Real Estate Fund invests primarily in the securities of real estate investment trusts (REITs). The REIT holdings in the fund reported distributions after the end of the 2006 calendar year, and the characterizations of these distributions affected the characterizations of the distributions previously paid by the fund on 11/30/06 and 12/28/06.
As a result, a portion of the ordinary income distribution distributed on 11/30/06 was revised to be long-term capital gains. Additionally, all of the ordinary income distribution distributed on 12/28/06 was revised to be long-term capital gains. This reclassification did not affect the total amount of the distributions reported to shareholders in 2006. The 2006 Form 1099-DIV that shareholders received reflects the adjusted information for tax reporting.

*Indicates that the long/short-term breakdown
of the capital gain is currently unavailable.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and
principal will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth
more or less than their original purchase price. Historical performance reflects
the effect of fee waivers. In the absence of fee waivers, total return would
be lower. Total return is based on net change in NAV, assuming reinvestment
of all distributions. Investing in foreign securities will involve certain
additional risks, including exchange rate fluctuation, less liquidity, greater
volatility and less regulation. Small company stocks are generally riskier than
large company stocks due to greater volatility and less liquidity.
REIT funds will be subject to a higher degree of market risk because of concentration
in a specific industry, sector or geographic sector. Risks also include declines
in the value of real estate, general and economic conditions.
