Objective and Strategy
Royce Technology Value Fund seeks long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of equity securities issued by mid-, small- and/or micro-cap technology companies, both domestic and foreign, that the portfolio manager believes are trading below his estimate of their current worth and have potential for capital appreciation. Such companies include those in computer software/hardware, telecommunications, semiconductors, information technology services and Internet-related businesses.

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.
Gross operating expenses reflect the Fund's gross total annual operating expenses for the Service Class including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees. Net operating expenses reflect contractual fee waivers and/or reimbursements. All expense information is reported as of the Fund's most current prospectus. Royce and Associates has contractually agreed to waive fees and reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain the net annual operating expense ratio at or below 1.69% through December 31, 2008.
