      Important Performance and Expense Information

      All performance information reflects past performance, is presented on a total return basis and reflects the reinvestment of distributions. 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. Shares redeemed within 180 days of purchase may be subject to a 1% redemption fee payable to the Fund. Current performance may be higher or lower than performance quoted.

      Annual operating expenses reflect the Fund's total annual operating expenses for the Service Class as of the Fund's most current prospectus and include management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees.

  1. This material is not authorized for distribution unless preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing or sending money. As of 12/31/07, the Fund held a limited number of stocks which may involve considerably more risk than a less concentrated portfolio because a decline in the value of these stocks would cause the Fund’s overall value to decline to a greater degree (see "Primary Risks for Fund Investors" in the prospectus). The Fund invests primarily in small- and mid-cap stocks which may involve considerably more risk than investing in larger-cap stocks (see "Primary Risks for Fund Investors" in the prospectus). The Russell 2000 is an unmanaged, capitalization-weighted index of domestic small-cap stocks. It measures the performance of the 2,000 smallest publicly traded U.S. companies in the Russell 3000 index. Distributor: Royce Fund Services, Inc.
