The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares upon redemption may be worth more or less than their original cost. If these subsidies were not in effect, the returns would have been lower. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. For performance data current to the most recent calendar quarter-end, please click on the Quarterly Performance link at the top of the page. *Certain expenses were subsidized. If these subsidies were not in effect, the returns would have been lower. The Adviser contractually waived management fees and/or reimbursed expenses through February 28, 2008 at the rates represented in the Net Expense Ratio column.

An investment in the ABN AMRO Money Market Funds is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. The 7-day Yield more closely reflects the current earnings of the Fund than the total return quotation.
