Important Risk Considerations
Liquidity: It may be difficult to value, and it may not be possible to sell, certain investments, types of investments, and/or investments in certain segments of the market, and the portfolio may have to sell certain of these investments at a price or time that is not advantageous in order to meet redemptions or other cash needs.

Important Performance Information
Performance information prior to July 1, 2014, reflects time periods when the fund was not considered a U.S. Government money market fund and had different investment policies and strategies. The fund's investment policies and strategies changed effective July 1, 2014.
