    2. Royce Capital Fund—Micro-Cap Portfolio (RCM) is available to life insurance company separate accounts established to fund variable annuity and variable life insurance products. RCM invests primarily in companies with market capitalizations up to $500 million. Royce generally focuses on micro-cap companies that it believes are trading significantly below its estimate of their current worth, an assessment based chiefly on balance sheet quality and cash flow levels. We believe that investors in the Fund should have a long-term investment horizon of at least three years.

      Important Performance and Expense Information

      All performance information reflects past performance, is presented on a total return basis, reflects the reinvestment of distributions and does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that shares may be worth more or less than their original cost when redeemed. Current performance may be higher or lower than performance quoted.

      The Fund's total returns do not reflect any deduction for charges or expenses of the variable contracts or retirement plans investing in the Fund. Operating expenses reflect the Fund's total annual operating expenses for the Investment Class as of the Fund's most current prospectus and include management fees, other expenses and acquired fund fees and expenses. Acquired fund fees and expenses reflect the estimated amount of the fees and expenses incurred indirectly by the Fund through its investments in mutual funds, hedge funds, private equity funds and other investment companies.

      Important Performance and Expense Information

      All performance information reflects past performance, is presented on a total return basis, reflects the reinvestment of distributions and does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that shares may be worth more or less than their original cost when redeemed. Current performance may be higher or lower than performance quoted.

      The Fund's total returns do not reflect any deduction for charges or expenses of the variable contracts or retirement plans investing in the Fund. Operating expenses reflect the Fund's total annual operating expenses for the Investment Class as of the Fund's most current prospectus and include management fees, other expenses and acquired fund fees and expenses. Acquired fund fees and expenses reflect the estimated amount of the fees and expenses incurred indirectly by the Fund through its investments in mutual funds, hedge funds, private equity funds and other investment companies.
