Fund. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the<br />

financial intermediary to recommend a Fund over another investment. Ask your<br />

salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.<br />

The amount of any payments described by this paragraph is determined by us or<br />

the distributor, and all such amounts are paid out of the available assets of the<br />

SHAREHOLDER INFORMATION<br />

SHARE PRICE CALCULATION<br />

The price at which you purchase and redeem shares of a Fund is equal to the<br />

NAV per share determined on the effective date of the purchase or redemption.<br />

The NAV per share is calculated by adding the value of a Fund’s assets (i.e., the<br />

value of its investment in the Fund and other assets), deducting liabilities, and<br />

dividing by the number of shares outstanding. Shares may be purchased and<br />

sold at the NAV per share without a sales charge. A Fund’s NAV per share is<br />

calculated as of the close of the NYSE (generally 4 p.m. Eastern time) each day<br />

that the NYSE is open for regular trading. The NYSE is closed on most national<br />

holidays and Good Friday.<br />

VALUATION OF SECURITIES<br />

Securities of the California Bond Fund with maturities greater than 60 days are<br />

valued each business day by a pricing service (the Service) approved by the<br />

Board. The Service uses an evaluated mean between quoted bid and asked prices<br />

or the last sales price to price securities when, in the Service’s judgment, these<br />

prices are readily available and are representative of the securities’ market<br />

values. For many securities, such prices are not readily available. The Service<br />

generally prices these securities based on methods that include consideration of<br />

yields or prices of tax-exempt securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity<br />

and type; indications as to values from dealers in securities; and general market<br />

conditions.<br />

In addition, securities purchased with original or remaining maturities of 60 days<br />

or less and all securities of the California Money Market Fund may be valued at<br />

amortized cost, which approximates market value.<br />

Repurchase agreements are valued at cost, which approximates market value.<br />

Investments in open-end investment companies, hedge, or other funds, other<br />

than ETFs, are valued at their NAV at the end of each business day. Futures are<br />

valued based upon the last sales price at the close of market on the principal<br />

exchange on which they are traded. Options are valued by a pricing service at<br />
