AN OVERVIEW OF THE FUNDS

LEGACY FOCUSED LARGE CAP FUND
LEGACY LARGE CAP FUND
LEGACY MULTI CAP FUND

WHAT ARE THE FUNDS' INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES?

Each fund seeks long-term capital growth.

WHAT ARE THE FUNDS' PRIMARY INVESTMENT STRATEGIES AND PRINCIPAL RISKS?

Each fund uses a quantitative investment process designed to identify common
stocks of companies that currently have, or are expected to have, earnings and
revenues that are not only growing, but growing at an accelerating rate, and
that also have strong price momentum. This process is based on a proprietary
multi-factor model that scores the securities in each fund's investment
universe. The portfolio managers then select from among the highest scored
securities when making purchase decisions for the fund. These securities may be
categorized as "growth" or "value" stocks and may be selected regardless of
their weighting in any index or other benchmark.

The table below highlights some key differences among the funds' investment
strategies.

The funds' principal risks include:

*  INVESTMENT PROCESS - The funds' investment models were developed by
   American Century to analyze investment opportunities. This analysis is based
   on historical data. To the extent that this data is inaccurate or the
   investment models are not effective, the funds' performance may suffer.

*  NONDIVERSIFICATION (LEGACY FOCUSED LARGE CAP) - The fund is classified as
   NONDIVERSIFIED. This gives the portfolio manager the flexibility to hold
   large positions in a small number of securities. If so, a price change in any
   one of those securities may have a greater impact on the fund's share prices
   than would be the case in a diversified fund.

        [graphic of triangle]

        A NONDIVERSIFIED FUND MAY INVEST A GREATER PERCENTAGE OF ITS ASSETS IN
        A SMALLER NUMBER OF SECURITIES THAN A DIVERSIFIED FUND.


------

*  SMALL- AND MID-CAP RISKS (LEGACY MULTI CAP) - Stocks of smaller companies
   can be more volatile than larger-company stocks.

*  HIGH TURNOVER - The funds' PORTFOLIO TURNOVER may be high when compared to
   a "buy and hold" fund strategy. This could result in relatively high
   commission costs, which could hurt the funds' performance, and create
   capital gains tax liabilities for the funds' shareholders.

        [graphic of triangle]

        PORTFOLIO TURNOVER IS A MEASURE OF HOW FREQUENTLY A FUND BUYS AND SELLS
        PORTFOLIO SECURITIES.

*  FOREIGN SECURITIES - The funds may invest in foreign securities, which can
   be riskier than investing in U.S. securities. Foreign investments may be
   significant at times.

*  MARKET RISK - The value of the funds' shares will go up and down based on
   the performance of the companies whose securities the funds own and other
   factors generally affecting the securities market.

*  PRICE VOLATILITY - The value of the funds' shares may fluctuate
   significantly in the short term.

*  PRINCIPAL LOSS - At any given time your shares may be worth less than the
   price you paid for them. In other words, it is possible to lose money by
   investing in the funds.

A more detailed description of the funds' investment strategies and risks may be
found under the heading OBJECTIVES, STRATEGIES AND RISKS, which begins on page
7.

        [graphic of triangle]

        AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUNDS IS NOT A BANK DEPOSIT, AND IT IS NOT INSURED
        OR GUARANTEED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION (FDIC) OR
        ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCY.

(1)  EACH FUND PAYS THE ADVISOR A SINGLE, UNIFIED MANAGEMENT FEE FOR
     ARRANGING ALL SERVICES NECESSARY FOR THE FUND TO OPERATE. EACH FUND HAS A
     STEPPED FEE SCHEDULE. AS A RESULT, EACH FUND'S UNIFIED MANAGEMENT FEE RATE
     GENERALLY DECREASES AS STRATEGY ASSETS INCREASE AND INCREASES AS STRATEGY
     ASSETS DECREASE. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE UNIFIED MANAGEMENT FEE,
     INCLUDING AN EXPLANATION OF STRATEGY ASSETS, SEE The Investment Advisor
     UNDER Management.

(2)  THE 12B-1 FEE IS DESIGNED TO PERMIT INVESTORS TO PURCHASE SHARES
     THROUGH BROKER-DEALERS, BANKS, INSURANCE COMPANIES AND OTHER FINANCIAL
     INTERMEDIARIES. THE FEE MAY BE USED TO COMPENSATE SUCH FINANCIAL
     INTERMEDIARIES FOR DISTRIBUTION AND OTHER SHAREHOLDER SERVICES. IN
     ADDITION, HALF OF THE ADVISOR CLASS 12B-1 FEE (0.25%) IS FOR ONGOING
     RECORDKEEPING AND ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES PROVIDED BY FINANCIAL
     INTERMEDIARIES, WHICH WOULD OTHERWISE BE PAID BY THE ADVISOR OUT OF THE
     UNIFIED MANAGEMENT FEE. THE ADVISOR HAS REDUCED ITS UNIFIED MANAGEMENT FEE
     BY 0.25% FOR ADVISOR CLASS SHARES, BUT THE FEE FOR CORE INVESTMENT ADVISORY
     SERVICES IS THE SAME FOR ALL CLASSES. FOR MORE INFORMATION, SEE Multiple
     Class Information AND Service, Distribution and Administrative Fees, PAGE
     22.

(3)  OTHER EXPENSES, WHICH INCLUDE THE FEES AND EXPENSES OF THE FUND'S
     INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS AND THEIR LEGAL COUNSEL, AS WELL AS INTEREST, ARE
     EXPECTED TO BE LESS THAN 0.005% FOR THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR.

OBJECTIVES, STRATEGIES AND RISKS

LEGACY FOCUSED LARGE CAP FUND
LEGACY LARGE CAP FUND
LEGACY MULTI CAP FUND

WHAT ARE THE FUNDS' INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES?

Each fund seeks long-term capital growth.

HOW DO THE FUNDS PURSUE THEIR INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES?

Each fund uses a quantitative investment process designed to identify common
stocks of companies that currently have, or are expected to have, earnings and
revenues that are not only growing, but growing at an accelerating rate, and
that also have strong price momentum. This process is based on a proprietary
multi-factor model that scores the securities in each fund's investment
universe. The portfolio managers then select from among the highest scored
securities when making purchase decisions for the fund. These securities may be
categorized as "growth" or "value" stocks and may be selected regardless of
their weighting in any index or other benchmark.

The investment universes for the funds differ. Legacy Focused Large Cap and
Legacy Large Cap may only invest in stocks that, at the time of purchase, are
large capitalization companies as defined by Morningstar. Legacy Multi Cap, by
contrast, will invest in small-, medium- and large capitalization stocks as
defined by Lipper, with between 25% and 50% of assets invested in each category
during normal market conditions. Each fund buys stocks that score in the top 10%
of its scored universe and sells stocks that score in the bottom half.

The funds also differ in the number of stocks each is expected to hold in its
portfolio. While Legacy Large Cap and Legacy Multi Cap are expected to hold
approximately 50 and 100 stocks, respectively, Legacy Focused Large Cap is
expected to maintain a smaller portfolio of approximately 30 stocks.

Although the funds' portfolio managers expect the funds will invest a majority
of their assets in U.S. companies, there is no limit on the amount of assets the
funds can invest in foreign companies. Foreign investments may be significant at
times.

The funds' portfolio managers intend to be fully invested in common stocks under
normal market conditions. However, if a fund's investment methodology fails to
generate sufficient investment ideas in common stocks, at the managers'
discretion, the fund may invest in other types of securities. These securities
may include debt securities, preferred stock and equity-equivalent securities,
such as convertible securities, stock futures contracts and options or stocks
index futures contracts and options. The fund generally limits its purchase of
debt securities to investment-grade obligations.

In the event of exceptional market or economic conditions, a fund may, as a
temporary defensive measure, invest all or a substantial portion of its assets
in cash, cash-equivalent securities or short-term debt securities. To the extent
a fund assumes a defensive position it will not be pursuing its objective of
long-term capital growth.

A description of the policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of
the funds' portfolio securities is available in the statement of additional
information.


------

WHAT ARE THE PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUNDS?

The funds' investment models were developed by American Century to analyze
investment opportunities. This analysis is based on historical data. To the
extent that this data is inaccurate or the investment models are not effective,
the funds' performance may suffer. In addition, market performance tends to be
cyclical, and in the various cycles, certain investment styles fall in and out
of favor. If the market is not favoring the funds' earnings and revenues growth
and price momentum strategies, the funds' gains may not be as big as, or its
losses may be bigger than, other equity funds using different investment styles.

Legacy Focused Large Cap is classified as nondiversified. This means that the
fund's portfolio managers may choose to invest in a relatively small number of
securities and to invest heavily in the most attractive companies identified by
the fund's methodology. If so, a price change in any one of these securities may
have a greater impact on the fund's share price than would be the case if the
fund were diversified.

Legacy Multi Cap invests in smaller companies. These companies may be more
volatile, and subject to greater short-term risk, than larger companies. Smaller
companies may have limited financial resources, product lines and markets, and
their securities may trade less frequently and in more limited volumes than the
securities of larger companies. In addition, smaller companies may have less
publicly available information.

The process driving the funds is specifically designed to respond quickly to
changing stock market conditions and to exploit short growth cycles where
possible. As a result, the funds' portfolio turnover may be high when compared
to a "buy and hold" fund strategy. This turnover could result in relatively high
commission costs, which could hurt the funds' performance, and create capital
gains tax liabilities for the funds' shareholders.

Although the portfolio managers expect to invest a majority of the funds' assets
in U.S. stocks, the funds may invest in securities of foreign companies. Foreign
investment involves additional risks, including fluctuations in currency
exchange rates, less stable political and economic structures, reduced
availability of public information, and lack of uniform financial reporting and
regulatory practices similar to those that apply in the United States. These
factors make investing in foreign securities generally riskier than investing in
U.S. stocks. To the extent a fund invests in foreign securities, the overall
risk of the fund could be affected.

The value of a fund's shares depends on the value of the stocks and other
securities it owns. The value of these securities will go up and down depending
on the performance of the companies that issued them, general market and
economic conditions, and investor confidence.

At any given time your shares may be worth less than the price you paid for
them. In other words, it is possible to lose money by investing in the funds.

MANAGEMENT

WHO MANAGES THE FUNDS?

The Board of Directors, investment advisor and fund management teams play key
roles in the management of the funds.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors oversees the management of the funds and meets at least
quarterly to review reports about fund operations. Although the Board of
Directors does not manage the funds, it has hired an investment advisor to do
so. More than three-fourths of the directors are independent of the funds'
advisor; that is, they have never been employed by and have no financial
interest in the advisor or any of its affiliated companies (other than as
shareholders of American Century funds).

THE INVESTMENT ADVISOR

The funds' investment advisor is American Century Investment Management, Inc.
(the advisor). The advisor has been managing mutual funds since 1958 and is
headquartered at 4500 Main Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64111.

The advisor is responsible for managing the investment portfolios of the funds
and directing the purchase and sale of their investment securities. The advisor
also arranges for transfer agency, custody and all other services necessary for
the funds to operate.

For the services it provides to each fund, the advisor receives a unified
management fee based on a percentage of the daily net assets of each class of
shares of the fund. The amount of the fee is calculated daily and paid monthly
in arrears. Out of that fee, the advisor pays all expenses of managing and
operating the fund except brokerage expenses, taxes, interest, fees and expenses
of the independent directors (including legal counsel fees), and extraordinary
expenses. A portion of each fund's management fee may be paid by the fund's
advisor to unaffiliated third parties who provide recordkeeping and
administrative services that would otherwise be performed by an affiliate of the
advisor.

The rate of the fee is determined by applying a formula that takes into account
all of the advisor's assets under management in the fund's investment strategy
("strategy assets"). Strategy assets include assets of the fund as well as
certain assets of other clients of the advisor outside the American Century fund
family (such as subadvised funds and separate accounts) that use very similar
investment teams and strategies. The funds in this prospectus do not have the
same investment strategy and their assets are therefore not combined for
purposes of calculating strategy assets. The use of strategy assets, rather than
fund assets, in calculating the fund's fee rate could allow the fund to realize
scheduled cost savings more quickly. However, the funds' strategy assets
currently do not include assets of other client accounts. In addition, if such
assets are acquired in the future, they may not be sufficient to result in a
lower fee rate.

The management fee schedules for the funds appear in the following table.

INVESTING DIRECTLY WITH AMERICAN CENTURY

SERVICES AUTOMATICALLY AVAILABLE TO YOU

Most accounts automatically will have access to the services listed under WAYS
TO MANAGE YOUR ACCOUNT when the account is opened. If you do not want these
services, see CONDUCTING BUSINESS IN WRITING. If you have questions about the
services that apply to your account type, please call us.

CONDUCTING BUSINESS IN WRITING

If you prefer to conduct business in writing only, you can indicate this on the
account application. If you choose this option, you must provide written
instructions to invest, exchange and redeem. All account owners must sign
transaction instructions (with signatures guaranteed for redemptions in excess
of $100,000). By choosing this option, you are not eligible to enroll for
exclusive online account management to waive the account maintenance fee. See
ACCOUNT MAINTENANCE FEE in this section. If you want to add online and telephone
services later, you can complete an Investor Service Options form.

ACCOUNT MAINTENANCE FEE

If you hold Investor Class shares of any American Century fund, or Institutional
Class shares of the American Century Diversified Bond fund, in an American
Century account (i.e., not a financial intermediary or retirement plan account),
we may charge you a $12.50 semiannual account maintenance fee if the value of
those shares is less than $10,000. We will determine the amount of your total
eligible investments twice per year, generally the last Friday in October and
April. If the value of those investments is less than $10,000 at that time, we
will automatically redeem shares in one of your accounts to pay the $12.50 fee.
Please note that you may incur tax liability as a result of the redemption. In
determining your total eligible investment amount, we will include your
investments in all PERSONAL ACCOUNTS (including American Century Brokerage
accounts) registered under your Social Security number. We will not charge the
fee as long as you choose to manage your accounts exclusively online. You may
enroll for exclusive online account management on our Web site. To find out more
about exclusive online account management, visit americancentury.com/info/demo.

INVESTING THROUGH A FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARY

The funds' R and Advisor Classes are intended for purchase by participants in
employer-sponsored retirement or savings plans and for persons purchasing shares
through FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES that provide various administrative and
distribution services.

        [graphic of triangle]

        FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES INCLUDE BANKS, BROKER-DEALERS, INSURANCE
        COMPANIES, PLAN SPONSORS AND FINANCIAL PROFESSIONALS.

Your ability to purchase, exchange, redeem and transfer shares will be affected
by the policies of the financial intermediary through which you do business.
Some policy differences may include

*  minimum investment requirements
*  exchange policies
*  fund choices
*  cutoff time for investments
*  trading restrictions

In addition, your financial intermediary may charge a transaction fee for the
purchase or sale of fund shares. Those charges retained by the financial
intermediary and are not shared with American Century or the funds. Please
contact your financial intermediary or plan sponsor for a complete description
of its policies. Copies of the funds' annual report, semiannual report and
statement of additional information are available from your financial
intermediary or plan sponsor.

The funds have authorized certain financial intermediaries to accept orders on
the funds' behalf. American Century has selling agreements with these financial
intermediaries requiring them to track the time investment orders are received
and to comply with procedures relating to the transmission of orders. Orders
must be received by the financial intermediary on a fund's behalf before the
time the net asset value is determined in order to receive that day's share
price. If those orders are transmitted to American Century and paid for in
accordance with the selling agreement, they will be priced at the net asset
value next determined after your request is received in the form required by the
financial intermediary.

SEE ADDITIONAL POLICIES AFFECTING YOUR INVESTMENT FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT
INVESTING WITH US.

ADDITIONAL POLICIES AFFECTING YOUR INVESTMENT

MINIMUM INITIAL INVESTMENT AMOUNTS

To open an account, the minimum initial investment amounts are $2,000 for a
Coverdell Education Savings Account (CESA), and $2,500 for all other accounts.

ELIGIBILITY FOR INSTITUTIONAL CLASS SHARES

The Institutional Class shares are made available for purchase by large
institutional shareholders such as bank trust departments, corporations,
retirement plans, endowments, foundations and financial advisors that meet the
funds' minimum investment requirements. Institutional Class shares are not
available for purchase by insurance companies for variable annuity and variable
life products.

MINIMUM INITIAL INVESTMENT AMOUNTS (INSTITUTIONAL CLASS)

The minimum initial investment amount is $5 million ($3 million for endowments
and foundations) per fund. If you invest with us through a financial
intermediary, this requirement may be met if your financial intermediary
aggregates your investments with those of other clients into a single group, or
omnibus, account that meets the minimum. The minimum investment requirement may
be waived if you, or your financial intermediary if you invest through an
omnibus account, have an aggregate investment in our family of funds of $10
million or more ($5 million for endowments and foundations). In addition,
financial intermediaries or plan recordkeepers may require retirement plans to
meet certain other conditions, such as plan size or a minimum level of assets
per participant, in order to be eligible to purchase Institutional Class shares.

REDEMPTIONS

Your redemption proceeds will be calculated using the NET ASSET VALUE (NAV) next
determined after we receive your transaction request in good order.

        [graphic of triangle]

        A FUND'S NET ASSET VALUE, OR NAV, IS THE PRICE OF THE FUND'S SHARES.

However, we reserve the right to delay delivery of redemption proceeds up to
seven days. For example, each time you make an investment with American Century,
there is a seven-day holding period before we will release redemption proceeds
from those shares, unless you provide us with satisfactory proof that your
purchase funds have cleared. Investments by wire generally require only a
one-day holding period. If you change your address, we may require that any
redemption request made within 15 days be submitted in writing and be signed by
all authorized signers with their signatures guaranteed. If you change your bank
information, we may impose a 15-day holding period before we will transfer or
wire redemption proceeds to your bank. Please remember, if you request
redemptions by wire, $10 will be deducted from the amount redeemed. Your bank
also may charge a fee.

In addition, we reserve the right to honor certain redemptions with securities,
rather than cash, as described in the next section.


------
15


SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR LARGE REDEMPTIONS

If, during any 90-day period, you redeem fund shares worth more than $250,000
(or 1% of the value of a fund's assets if that amount is less than $250,000), we
reserve the right to pay part or all of the redemption proceeds in excess of
this amount in readily marketable securities instead of in cash. The portfolio
manager would select these securities from the fund's portfolio.

We will value these securities in the same manner as we do in computing the
fund's net asset value. We may provide these securities in lieu of cash without
prior notice. Also, if payment is made in securities, you may have to pay
brokerage or other transaction costs to convert the securities to cash.

If your redemption would exceed this limit and you would like to avoid being
paid in securities, please provide us with an unconditional instruction to
redeem at least 15 days prior to the date on which the redemption transaction is
to occur. The instruction must specify the dollar amount or number of shares to
be redeemed and the date of the transaction. This minimizes the effect of the
redemption on a fund and its remaining investors.

REDEMPTION OF SHARES IN LOW-BALANCE ACCOUNTS

If your account balance falls below the minimum initial investment amount for
any reason other than as a result of market fluctuation, we will notify you and
give you 90 days to meet the minimum. If you do not meet the deadline, American
Century reserves the right to redeem the shares in the account and send the
proceeds to your address of record. You also may incur tax liability as a result
of the redemption. For Institutional Class shares, we reserve the right to
convert your shares to Investor Class shares of the same fund. The Investor
Class shares have a unified management fee that is 0.20% higher than the
Institutional Class.

SIGNATURE GUARANTEES

A signature guarantee - which is different from a notarized signature - is a
warranty that the signature presented is genuine. We may require a signature
guarantee for the following transactions.

*  You have chosen to conduct business in writing only and would like to
   redeem over $100,000.

*  Your redemption or distribution check, Check-A-Month or automatic
   redemption is made payable to someone other than the account owners.

*  Your redemption proceeds or distribution amount is sent by EFT (ACH or
   wire) to a destination other than your personal bank account.

*  You are transferring ownership of an account over $100,000.

*  You change your address and request a redemption over $100,000 within 15
   days.

*  You change your bank information and request a redemption within 15 days.

We reserve the right to require a signature guarantee for other transactions, at
our discretion.

MODIFYING OR CANCELING AN INVESTMENT

Investment instructions are irrevocable. That means that once you have mailed or
otherwise transmitted your investment instruction, you may not modify or cancel
it. The fund reserves the right to suspend the offering of shares for a period
of time and to reject any specific investment (including a purchase by
exchange). Additionally, we may refuse a purchase if, in our judgment, it is of
a size that would disrupt the management of the fund.

ABUSIVE TRADING PRACTICES

Short-term trading and other so-called market timing practices are not defined
or explicitly prohibited by any federal or state law. However, short-term
trading and other abusive trading practices may disrupt portfolio management
strategies and harm fund performance. If the cumulative amount of short-term
trading activity is significant relative to a fund's net assets, the fund may
incur trading costs that are higher than necessary as securities are first
purchased then quickly sold to meet the redemption request. In such case, the
fund's performance could be negatively impacted by the increased trading costs
created by short-term trading if the additional trading costs are significant.

Because of the potentially harmful effects of abusive trading practices, the
funds' Board of Directors has approved American Century's abusive trading
policies and procedures, which are designed to reduce the frequency and effect
of these activities in our funds. These policies and procedures include
monitoring trading activity, imposing trading restrictions on certain accounts,
imposing redemption fees on certain funds, and using fair value pricing when
current market prices are not readily available. Although these efforts are
designed to discourage abusive trading practices, they cannot eliminate the
possibility that such activity will occur. American Century seeks to exercise
its judgment in implementing these tools to the best of its ability in a manner
that it believes is consistent with shareholder interests.

American Century uses a variety of techniques to monitor for and detect abusive
trading practices. These techniques may vary depending on the type of fund, the
class of shares or whether the shares are held directly or indirectly with
American Century. They may change from time to time as determined by American
Century in its sole discretion. To minimize harm to the funds and their
shareholders, we reserve the right to reject any purchase order (including
exchanges) from any shareholder we believe has a history of abusive trading or
whose trading, in our judgment, has been or may be disruptive to the funds. In
making this judgment, we may consider trading done in multiple accounts under
common ownership or control.

Currently, for shares held directly with American Century, we may deem the sale
of all or a substantial portion of a shareholder's purchase of fund shares to be
abusive if the sale is made

* within seven days of the purchase, or

* within 30 days of the purchase, if it happens more than once per year.

To the extent practicable, we try to use the same approach for defining abusive
trading for shares held through financial intermediaries. American Century
reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to identify other trading practices
as abusive and to modify its monitoring and other practices as necessary to deal
with novel or unique abusive trading practices.

In addition, American Century reserves the right to accept purchases and
exchanges in excess of the trading restrictions discussed above if it believes
that such transactions would not be inconsistent with the best interests of fund
shareholders or this policy.

American Century's policies do not permit us to enter into arrangements with
fund shareholders that permit such shareholders to engage in frequent purchases
and redemptions of fund shares. Due to the complexity and subjectivity involved
in identifying abusive trading activity and the volume of shareholder
transactions American Century handles, there can be no assurance that American
Century's efforts will identify all trades or trading practices that may be
considered abusive. In addition, American Century's ability to monitor trades
that are placed by individual shareholders within group, or omnibus, accounts
maintained by financial intermediaries is severely limited because American
Century generally does not have access to the underlying shareholder account
information. However, American Century monitors aggregate trades placed in
omnibus accounts and seeks to work with financial intermediaries to discourage
shareholders from engaging in abusive trading practices and to impose
restrictions on excessive trades. There may be limitations on the ability of
financial intermediaries to impose restrictions on the trading practices of
their clients. As a result, American Century's ability to monitor and discourage
abusive trading practices in omnibus accounts may be limited.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR UNAUTHORIZED TRANSACTIONS

American Century and its affiliated companies use procedures reasonably designed
to confirm that telephone, electronic and other instructions are genuine. These
procedures include recording telephone calls, requesting personalized security
codes or other information, and sending confirmation of transactions. If we
follow these procedures, we are not responsible for any losses that may occur
due to unauthorized instructions. For transactions conducted over the Internet,
we recommend the use of a secure Internet browser. In addition, you should
verify the accuracy of your confirmation statements immediately after you
receive them.

A NOTE ABOUT MAILINGS TO SHAREHOLDERS

To reduce the amount of mail you receive from us, we may deliver a single copy
of certain investor documents (such as shareholder reports and prospectuses) to
investors who share an address, even if accounts are registered under different
names. If you prefer to receive multiple copies of these documents individually
addressed, please call us or your financial professional. For American Century
Brokerage accounts, please call 1-888-345-2071.

RIGHT TO CHANGE POLICIES

We reserve the right to change any stated investment requirement, including
those that relate to purchases, exchanges and redemptions. We also may alter,
add or discontinue any service or privilege. Changes may affect all investors or
only those in certain classes or groups. In addition, from time to time we may
waive a policy on a case-by-case basis, as the advisor deems appropriate.

18


SHARE PRICE AND DISTRIBUTIONS

SHARE PRICE

American Century will price the fund shares you purchase, exchange or redeem at
the net asset value (NAV) next determined after your order is received and
accepted by the fund's transfer agent, or other financial intermediary with the
authority to accept orders on the fund's behalf. We determine the NAV of each
fund as of the close of regular trading (usually 4 p.m. Eastern time) on the New
York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open. On days when the NYSE
is closed (including certain U.S. national holidays), we do not calculate the
NAV. A fund's NAV is the current value of the fund's assets, minus any
liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding.

The funds value portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily
available at their market price. As a general rule, equity securities listed on
a U.S. exchange are valued at the last current reported sale price as of the
time of valuation. Securities listed on the NASDAQ National Market System
(Nasdaq) are valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (NOCP), as determined
by Nasdaq, or lacking an NOCP, at the last current reported sale price as of the
time of valuation. The funds may use pricing services to assist in the
determination of market value. Unlisted securities for which market quotations
are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price or the last
quoted ask price, as applicable, except that debt obligations with 60 days or
less remaining until maturity may be valued at amortized cost. Exchange-traded
options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price as
determined by the appropriate clearing corporation.

If a fund determines that the market price for a portfolio security is not
readily available or that the valuation methods mentioned above do not reflect
the security's fair value, such security is valued at its fair value as
determined in good faith by, or in accordance with procedures adopted by, the
fund's board or its designee (a process referred to as "fair valuing" the
security). Circumstances that may cause the fund to fair value a security
include, but are not limited to:

*  for funds investing in foreign securities, if, after the close of the
   foreign exchange on which a portfolio security is principally traded, but
   before the close of the NYSE, an event occurs that may materially affect the
   value of the security;

*  for funds that invest in debt securities, a debt security has been
   declared in default; or

*  trading in a security has been halted during the trading day.

If such circumstances occur, the fund will fair value the security if the fair
valuation would materially impact the fund's NAV. While fair value
determinations involve judgments that are inherently subjective, these
determinations are made in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by
the funds' board.

The effect of using fair value determinations is that a fund's NAV will be
based, to some degree, on security valuations that the board or its designee
believes are fair rather than being solely determined by the market.

With respect to any portion of a fund's assets that are invested in one or more
open-end management investment companies that are registered with the SEC (known
as registered investment companies, or RICs), the fund's NAV will be calculated
based upon the NAVs of such RICs. These RICs are required by law to explain the
circumstances under which they will use fair value pricing and the effects of
using fair value pricing in their prospectuses.


------
19


Securities and other assets quoted in foreign currencies are valued in U.S.
dollars based on the prevailing exchange rates on that day.

Trading of securities in foreign markets may not take place every day the NYSE
is open. Also, trading in some foreign markets and on some electronic trading
networks may take place on weekends or holidays when the funds' NAVs are not
calculated. So, the value of the funds' portfolios may be affected on days when
you will not be able to purchase, exchange or redeem fund shares.

DISTRIBUTIONS

Federal tax laws require each fund to make distributions to its shareholders in
order to qualify as a "regulated investment company." Qualification as a
regulated investment company means that a fund should not be subject to state or
federal income tax on amounts distributed. The distributions generally consist
of dividends and interest received by the fund, as well as CAPITAL GAINS
realized by the fund on the sale of its investment securities. Each fund
generally pays distributions from net income and capital gains, if any, once a
year in December. The funds may make more frequent distributions, if necessary,
to comply with Internal Revenue Code provisions.

        [graphic of triangle]

        CAPITAL GAINS ARE INCREASES IN THE VALUES OF CAPITAL ASSETS, SUCH AS
        STOCK, FROM THE TIME THE ASSETS ARE PURCHASED.

You will participate in fund distributions when they are declared, starting the
next business day after your purchase is effective. For example, if you purchase
shares on a day that a distribution is declared, you will not receive that
distribution. If you redeem shares, you will receive any distribution declared
on the day you redeem. If you redeem all shares, we will include any
distributions received with your redemption proceeds.

Participants in tax-deferred retirement plans must reinvest all distributions.
For investors investing through taxable accounts, we will reinvest distributions
unless you elect to have dividends and/or capital gains sent to another American
Century account, to your bank electronically, or to your home address or to
another person or address by check.


------
20


TAXES

The tax consequences of owning shares of the funds will vary depending on
whether you own them through a taxable or tax-deferred account. Tax consequences
result from distributions by a fund of dividend and interest income it has
received or capital gains it has generated through its investment activities.
Tax consequences also may result when investors sell fund shares after the net
asset value has increased or decreased.

Tax-Deferred Accounts

If you purchase fund shares through a tax-deferred account, such as an IRA or a
qualified employer-sponsored retirement or savings plan, income and capital
gains distributions usually will not be subject to current taxation but will
accumulate in your account under the plan on a tax-deferred basis. Likewise,
moving from one fund to another fund within a plan or tax-deferred account
generally will not cause you to be taxed. For information about the tax
consequences of making purchases or withdrawals through a tax-deferred account,
please consult your plan administrator, your summary plan description or a tax
advisor.

Taxable Accounts

If you own fund shares through a taxable account, you may be taxed on your
investments if the fund makes distributions or if you sell your fund shares.

Taxability of Distributions

Fund distributions may consist of income, such as dividends and interest earned
by a fund from its investments, or capital gains generated by a fund from the
sale of investment securities. Distributions of income are taxed as ordinary
income, unless they are designated as QUALIFIED DIVIDEND INCOME and you meet a
minimum required holding period with respect to your shares of the fund, in
which case distributions of income are taxed as long-term capital gains.

        [graphic of triangle]



        QUALIFIED DIVIDEND INCOME IS A DIVIDEND RECEIVED BY THE FUND FROM THE
        STOCK OF A DOMESTIC OR QUALIFYING FOREIGN CORPORATION, PROVIDED THAT THE
        FUND HAS HELD THE STOCK FOR A REQUIRED HOLDING PERIOD.

For capital gains and for income distributions designated as qualified dividend
income, the following rates apply:

                                        TAX RATE FOR 10%      TAX RATE FOR
TYPE OF DISTRIBUTION                    AND 15% BRACKETS      ALL OTHER BRACKETS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Short-term capital gains                Ordinary Income       Ordinary Income
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Long-term capital gains (more than 1 year)
and Qualified Dividend Income           5%                    15%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If a fund's distributions exceed its taxable income and capital gains realized
during the tax year, all or a portion of the distributions made by the fund in
that tax year will be considered a return of capital. A return of capital
distribution is generally not subject to tax, but will reduce your cost basis in
the fund and result in higher realized capital gains (or lower realized capital
losses) upon the sale of fund shares.


------
21


The tax status of any distributions of capital gains is determined by how long a
fund held the underlying security that was sold, not by how long you have been
invested in the fund, or whether you reinvest your distributions in additional
shares or take them in cash. For taxable accounts, American Century or your
financial intermediary will inform you of the tax status of fund distributions
for each calendar year in an annual tax mailing.

Distributions also may be subject to state and local taxes. Because everyone's
tax situation is unique, you may want to consult your tax professional about
federal, state and local tax consequences.

Taxes on Transactions

Your redemptions - including exchanges to other American Century funds - are
subject to capital gains tax. The table above can provide a general guide for
your potential tax liability when selling or exchanging fund shares. Short-term
capital gains are gains on fund shares you held for 12 months or less. Long-term
capital gains are gains on fund shares you held for more than 12 months. If your
shares decrease in value, their sale or exchange will result in a long-term or
short-term capital loss. However, you should note that loss realized upon the
sale or exchange of shares held for six months or less will be treated as a
long-term capital loss to the extent of any distribution of long-term capital
gain to you with respect to those shares. If a loss is realized on the
redemption of fund shares, the reinvestment in additional fund shares within 30
days before or after the redemption may be subject to the wash sale rules of the
Internal Revenue Code. This may result in a postponement of the recognition of
such loss for federal income tax purposes.

If you have not certified to us that your Social Security number or tax
identification number is correct and that you are not subject to withholding, we
are required to withhold and pay to the IRS the applicable federal withholding
tax rate on taxable dividends, capital gains distributions and redemption
proceeds.

Buying a Dividend

Purchasing fund shares in a taxable account shortly before a distribution is
sometimes known as buying a dividend. In taxable accounts, you must pay income
taxes on the distribution whether you reinvest the distribution or take it in
cash. In addition, you will have to pay taxes on the distribution whether the
value of your investment decreased, increased or remained the same after you
bought the fund shares.

The risk in buying a dividend is that a fund's portfolio may build up taxable
gains throughout the period covered by a distribution, as securities are sold at
a profit. The fund distributes those gains to you, after subtracting any losses,
even if you did not own the shares when the gains occurred.

If you buy a dividend, you incur the full tax liability of the distribution
period, but you may not enjoy the full benefit of the gains realized in the
fund's portfolio.

22


MULTIPLE CLASS INFORMATION

American Century offers four classes of shares of each fund: Investor Class,
Institutional Class, R Class and Advisor Class.

The classes have different fees, expenses and/or minimum investment
requirements. The difference in the fee structures between the classes is the
result of their separate arrangements for shareholder and distribution services.
It is not the result of any difference in advisory or custodial fees or other
expenses related to the management of a fund's assets, which do not vary by
class. Different fees and expenses will affect performance.

Except as described below, all classes of shares of a fund have identical
voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights, preferences, terms and
conditions. The only differences between the classes are (a) each class may be
subject to different expenses specific to that class; (b) each class has a
different identifying designation or name; (c) each class has exclusive voting
rights with respect to matters solely affecting such class; (d) each class may
have different exchange privileges; and (e) the Institutional Class may provide
for automatic conversion from that class into shares of the Investor Class of
the same fund.

Service, Distribution and Administrative Fees

Investment Company Act Rule 12b-1 permits mutual funds that adopt a written plan
to pay certain expenses associated with the distribution of their shares out of
fund assets. The funds' R Class and Advisor Class shares have a 12b-1 plan. The
plans provide for the funds to pay annual fees of 0.50% for Advisor and R
Classes to the distributor for certain ongoing shareholder and administrative
services and for distribution services, including past distribution services.
Under the Advisor Class Plan, the funds' Advisor Class pays the distributor an
annual fee of 0.50% of Advisor Class average net assets, half for certain
ongoing shareholder and administrative services and half for distribution
services, including past distribution services. The distributor pays all or a
portion of such fees to the financial intermediaries that make the classes
available. Because these fees are used to pay for services that are not related
to prospective sales of the funds, each class will continue to make payments
under its plan even if it is closed to new investors. Because these fees are
paid out of the funds' assets on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will
increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other
types of sales charges. For additional information about the plans and their
terms, see Multiple Class Structure in the statement of additional information.

Certain financial intermediaries perform recordkeeping and administrative
services for their clients that would otherwise be performed by American
Century's transfer agent. In some circumstances, the advisor will pay such
service providers a fee for performing those services. Also, the advisor and the
funds' distributor may make payments for various additional services or other
expenses out of their profits or other available sources. Such payments may be
made for one or more of the following: (1) distribution services, which include
expenses incurred by intermediaries for their sales activities with respect to
the funds, such as preparing, printing and distributing sales literature and
advertising materials and compensating registered representatives or other
employees of such financial intermediary for their sales activities; (2)
shareholder services, such as providing individual and custom investment
advisory services to clients of the financial intermediary; and (3) marketing
and promotional services, including business planning assistance, educating
personnel about the funds, and sponsorship of sales meetings, which may include
covering costs of providing speakers, meals and other entertainment. The
distributor may sponsor seminars and conferences designed to educate
intermediaries about the funds and may cover the expenses associated with
attendance at such meetings, including travel costs. These payments and
activities are intended to provide an incentive to intermediaries to sell the
funds by ensuring that they are educated about the funds, and to help such
intermediaries defray costs associated with offering the funds. The amount of
any payments described by this paragraph is determined by the advisor or the
distributor, and all such amounts are paid out of the available assets of the
advisor and distributor, and not by you or the funds. As a result, the total
expense ratios of the funds will not be affected by any such payments.

THE FUNDS' HISTORY

American Century Growth Funds, Inc. is a registered open-end management
investment company that was organized in 2006 as a Maryland corporation.
Throughout this statement of additional information we refer to American Century
Growth Funds, Inc. as the corporation.

Each fund described in this statement of additional information is a separate
series of the corporation and operates for many purposes as if it were an
independent company. Each fund has its own investment objective, strategy,
management team, assets, and tax identification and stock registration numbers.

FUND INVESTMENT GUIDELINES

This section explains the extent to which the funds' advisor, American Century
Investment Management, Inc., can use various investment vehicles and strategies
in managing each fund's assets. Descriptions of the investment techniques and
risks associated with each appear in the section, INVESTMENT STRATEGIES AND
RISKS, which begins on page 3. In the case of the funds' principal investment
strategies, these descriptions elaborate upon discussions contained in the
prospectus.

Each fund, other than Legacy Focused Large Cap, is diversified as defined in the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Investment Company Act). Diversified means
that, with respect to 75% of its total assets, each fund will not invest more
than 5% of its total assets in the securities of a single issuer or own more
than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of a single issuer (other than
U.S. government securities and securities of other investment companies).

Legacy Focused Large Cap is nondiversified. Nondiversified means that the fund
may invest a greater portion of its assets in a smaller number of securities
than a diversified fund.

To meet federal tax requirements for qualification as a regulated investment
company, each fund must limit its investments so that at the close of each
quarter of its taxable year

(1)  no more than 25% of its total assets are invested in the securities of
     a single issuer (other than the U.S. government or a regulated investment
     company), and

(2)  with respect to at least 50% of its total assets, no more than 5% of
     its total assets are invested in the securities of a single issuer.

In general, within the restrictions outlined here and in the funds' prospectus,
the portfolio managers have broad powers to decide how to invest fund assets,
including the power to hold them uninvested.


------

Investments are varied according to what is judged advantageous under changing
economic conditions. It is the advisor's policy to retain maximum flexibility in
management without restrictive provisions as to the proportion of one or another
class of securities that may be held, subject to the investment restrictions
described on the following pages. It is the advisor's intention that each fund
will generally consist of domestic and foreign common stocks, convertible
securities and equity-equivalent securities. However, subject to the specific
limitations applicable to a fund, the funds' management teams may invest the
assets of each fund in varying amounts in other instruments and may use other
techniques, such as those reflected in the FUND INVESTMENTS AND RISKS section,
when such a course is deemed appropriate in order to pursue a fund's investment
objective. Senior securities that, in the opinion of the portfolio managers, are
high-grade issues also may be purchased for defensive purposes.

So long as a sufficient number of acceptable securities are available, the
portfolio managers intend to keep the funds fully invested, regardless of the
movement of stock or bond prices, generally. However, should a fund's investment
methodology fail to identify sufficient acceptable securities, or for any other
reason including the desire to take a temporary defensive position, the funds
may invest up to 100% of their assets in U.S. government securities. In most
circumstances, each fund's actual level of cash and cash equivalents will be
less than 10%. The managers may use futures contracts as a way to expose each
fund's cash assets to the market while maintaining liquidity. Because the
managers may not leverage a fund's portfolio, there is no greater market risk to
the funds than if they purchase stocks. See DERIVATIVE SECURITIES, page 6,
SHORT-TERM SECURITIES, page 9 and FUTURES AND OPTIONS, page 10.

FUND INVESTMENTS AND RISKS

INVESTMENT STRATEGIES AND RISKS

This section describes investment vehicles and techniques the portfolio managers
can use in managing a fund's assets. It also details the risks associated with
each, because each investment vehicle and technique contributes to a fund's
overall risk profile.

Foreign Securities

The funds may invest an unlimited portion of their total assets in the
securities of foreign issuers, when these securities meet its standards of
selection. These funds may invest in common stocks, convertible securities,
preferred stocks, bonds, notes and other debt securities of foreign issuers,
foreign governments and their agencies. Securities of foreign issuers may trade
in the U.S. or foreign securities markets.

The funds may purchase foreign securities of issuers whose principal business
activities are located in developed and emerging market countries. The funds
consider developed countries to include Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bermuda,
Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy,
Japan, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Singapore,
Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Investments in foreign securities may present certain risks, including:

CURRENCY RISK - The value of the foreign investments held by the funds may be
significantly affected by changes in currency exchange rates. The dollar value
of a foreign security generally decreases when the value of the dollar rises
against the foreign currency in which the security is denominated and tends to
increase when the value of the dollar falls against such currency. In addition,
the value of fund assets may be affected by losses and other expenses incurred
in converting between various currencies in order to purchase and sell foreign
securities, and by currency restrictions, exchange control regulation, currency
devaluations and political developments.

POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC RISK - The economies of many of the countries in which
the funds invest are not as developed as the economy of the United States and
may be subject to significantly different forces. Political or social
instability, expropriation, nationalization, confiscatory taxation and
limitations on the removal of funds or other assets also could adversely affect
the value of investments. Further, the funds may find it difficult or be unable
to enforce ownership rights, pursue legal remedies or obtain judgments in
foreign courts.


------
3


REGULATORY RISK - Foreign companies generally are not subject to the regulatory
controls imposed on U.S. issuers and, in general, there is less publicly
available information about foreign securities than is available about domestic
securities. Many foreign companies are not subject to uniform accounting,
auditing and financial reporting standards, practices and requirements
comparable to those applicable to domestic companies. Income from foreign
securities owned by the funds may be reduced by a withholding tax at the source,
which would reduce dividend income payable to shareholders.

MARKET AND TRADING RISK - Brokerage commission rates in foreign countries, which
generally are fixed rather than subject to negotiation as in the United States,
are likely to be higher. The securities markets in many of the countries in
which the funds invest will have substantially less trading volume than the
principal U.S. markets. As a result, the securities of some companies in these
countries may be less liquid and more volatile than comparable U.S. securities.
Furthermore, one securities broker may represent all or a significant part of
the trading volume in a particular country, resulting in higher trading costs
and decreased liquidity due to a lack of alternative trading partners. There
generally is less government regulation and supervision of foreign stock
exchanges, brokers and issuers, which may make it difficult to enforce
contractual obligations.

CLEARANCE AND SETTLEMENT RISK - Foreign securities markets also have different
clearance and settlement procedures, and in certain markets there have been
times when settlements have been unable to keep pace with the volume of
securities transactions, making it difficult to conduct such transactions.
Delays in clearance and settlement could result in temporary periods when assets
of the funds are uninvested and no return is earned. The inability of the funds
to make intended security purchases due to clearance and settlement problems
could cause the funds to miss attractive investment opportunities. Inability to
dispose of portfolio securities due to clearance and settlement problems could
result either in losses to the funds due to subsequent declines in the value of
the portfolio security or, if the fund has entered into a contract to sell the
security, liability to the purchaser.

OWNERSHIP RISK - Evidence of securities ownership may be uncertain in many
foreign countries. As a result, there is a risk that a fund's trade details
could be incorrectly or fraudulently entered at the time of the transaction,
resulting in a loss to the fund.

Depositary Receipts

American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and European Depositary Receipts (EDRs) are
receipts representing ownership of shares of a foreign-based issuer held in
trust by a bank or similar financial institution. These are designed for U.S.
and European securities markets as alternatives to purchasing underlying
securities in their corresponding national markets and currencies. ADRs and EDRs
can be sponsored or unsponsored.

Sponsored ADRs and EDRs are certificates in which a bank or financial
institution participates with a custodian. Issuers of unsponsored ADRs and EDRs
are not contractually obligated to disclose material information in the United
States. Therefore, there may not be a correlation between such information and
the market value of the unsponsored ADR or EDR.

ADRs are dollar-denominated receipts representing interests in the securities of
a foreign issuer. They are issued by U.S. banks and traded on exchanges or over
the counter in the United States. Ordinary shares are shares of foreign issuers
that are traded abroad and on a U.S. exchange. New York shares are shares that a
foreign issuer has allocated for trading in the United States. ADRs, ordinary
shares and New York shares all may be purchased with and sold for U.S. dollars,
which protect the fund from the foreign settlement risks described under the
section titled FOREIGN SECURITIES, page 3.

Convertible Securities

A convertible security is a bond, debenture, note, preferred stock or other
security that may be converted into or exchanged for a prescribed amount of
common stock of the same or a different issuer within a particular time period
at a specified price or formula. A convertible security entitles the holder to
receive the interest paid or accrued on debt or the dividend paid on preferred
stock until the convertible security matures or is redeemed, converted or
exchanged. Before conversion or exchange, such securities ordinarily provide a
stream of


------
4


income with generally higher yields than common stocks of the same or similar
issuers, but lower than the yield on non-convertible debt. Of course, there can
be no assurance of current income because issuers of convertible securities may
default on their obligations. In addition, there can be no assurance of capital
appreciation because the value of the underlying common stock will fluctuate.
Because of the conversion feature, the managers consider some convertible
securities to be equity equivalents.

The price of a convertible security will normally fluctuate in some proportion
to changes in the price of the underlying asset. A convertible security is
subject to risks relating to the activities of the issuer and/or general market
and economic conditions. The stream of income typically paid on a convertible
security may tend to cushion the security against declines in the price of the
underlying asset. However, the stream of income causes fluctuations based upon
changes in interest rates and the credit quality of the issuer. In general, the
value of a convertible security is a function of (1) its yield in comparison
with yields of other securities of comparable maturity and quality that do not
have a conversion privilege and (2) its worth, at market value, if converted or
exchanged into the underlying common stock. The price of a convertible security
often reflects such variations in the price of the underlying common stock in a
way that a non-convertible security does not. At any given time, investment
value generally depends upon such factors as the general level of interest
rates, the yield of similar nonconvertible securities, the financial strength of
the issuer and the seniority of the security in the issuer's capital structure.

A convertible security may be subject to redemption at the option of the issuer
at a predetermined price. If a convertible security held by a fund is called for
redemption, the fund would be required to permit the issuer to redeem the
security and convert it to underlying common stock or to cash, or would sell the
convertible security to a third party, which may have an adverse effect on the
fund. A convertible security may feature a put option that permits the holder of
the convertible security to sell that security back to the issuer at a
predetermined price. A fund generally invests in convertible securities for
their favorable price characteristics and total return potential and normally
would not exercise an option to convert unless the security is called or
conversion is forced.

Short Sales

A fund may engage in short sales for cash management purposes only if, at the
time of the short sale, the fund owns or has the right to acquire securities
equivalent in kind and amount to the securities being sold short.

In a short sale, the seller does not immediately deliver the securities sold and
is said to have a short position in those securities until delivery occurs. To
make delivery to the purchaser, the executing broker borrows the securities
being sold short on behalf of the seller. While the short position is
maintained, the seller collateralizes its obligation to deliver the securities
sold short in an amount equal to the proceeds of the short sale plus an
additional margin amount established by the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve. If a fund engages in a short sale, the fund's custodian will segregate
cash, cash equivalents or other appropriate liquid securities on its records in
an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. There will be certain
additional transaction costs associated with short sales, but the fund will
endeavor to offset these costs with income from the investment of the cash
proceeds of short sales.

Portfolio Lending

In order to realize additional income, a fund may lend its portfolio securities.
Such loans may not exceed one-third of the fund's total assets valued at market
except

*  through the purchase of debt securities in accordance with its investment
   objectives, policies and limitations, or

*  by engaging in repurchase agreements with respect to portfolio securities.


------

Derivative Securities

To the extent permitted by its investment objectives and policies, each of the
funds may invest in securities that are commonly referred to as derivative
securities. Generally, a derivative security is a financial arrangement the
value of which is based on, or derived from, a traditional security, asset, or
market index. Certain derivative securities are described more accurately as
index/structured securities. Index/structured securities are derivative
securities whose value or performance is linked to other equity securities (such
as depositary receipts), currencies, interest rates, indices or other financial
indicators (reference indices).

Some derivative securities, such as mortgage-related and other asset-backed
securities, are in many respects like any other investment, although they may be
more volatile or less liquid than more traditional debt securities.

There are many different types of derivative securities and many different ways
to use them. Futures and options are commonly used for traditional hedging
purposes to attempt to protect a fund from exposure to changing interest rates,
securities prices, or currency exchange rates and for cash management purposes
as a low-cost method of gaining exposure to a particular securities market
without investing directly in those securities.

No fund may invest in a derivative security unless the reference index or the
instrument to which it relates is an eligible investment for the fund. For
example, a security whose underlying value is linked to the price of oil would
not be a permissible investment because the funds may not invest in oil and gas
leases or futures.

The return on a derivative security may increase or decrease, depending upon
changes in the reference index or instrument to which it relates.

There are risks associated with investing in derivative securities, including:

*  the risk that the underlying security, interest rate, market index or
   other financial asset will not move in the direction the portfolio managers
   anticipate;

*  the possibility that there may be no liquid secondary market, or the
   possibility that price fluctuation limits may be imposed by the exchange,
   either of which may make it difficult or impossible to close out a position
   when desired;

*  the risk that adverse price movements in an instrument can result in a
   loss substantially greater than a fund's initial investment; and

*  the risk that the counterparty will fail to perform its obligations.

The funds' Board of Directors has reviewed the advisor's policy regarding
investments in derivative securities. That policy specifies factors that must be
considered in connection with a purchase of derivative securities and provides
that a fund may not invest in a derivative security if it would be possible for
a fund to lose more money than the notional value of the investment. The policy
also establishes a committee that must review certain proposed purchases before
the purchases can be made. The advisor will report on fund activity in
derivative securities to the Board of Directors as necessary.

Swap Agreements

Each fund may invest in swap agreements, consistent with its investment
objective and strategies. A fund may enter into a swap agreement in order to,
for example, attempt to obtain or preserve a particular return or spread at a
lower cost than obtaining a return or spread through purchases and/or sales of
instruments in other markets; protect against currency fluctuations; attempt to
manage duration to protect against any increase in the price of securities the
fund anticipates purchasing at a later date; or gain exposure to certain markets
in the most economical way possible.

Swap agreements are two-party contracts entered into primarily by institutional
investors for periods ranging from a few weeks to more than one year. In a
standard "swap" transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns (or
differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined
investments or instruments, which may be adjusted for an interest factor. The
gross returns to be exchanged or "swapped" between the parties are generally
calculated with respect to a "notional amount," i.e., the return on or increase
in value of a particular dollar amount invested at a particular interest rate,
in a particular foreign currency,


------
6


or in a "basket" of securities representing a particular index. Forms of swap
agreements include, for example, interest rate swaps, under which fixed- or
floating-rate interest payments on a specific principal amount are exchanged and
total return swaps, under which one party agrees to pay the other the total
return of a defined underlying asset (usually an index, stock, bond or defined
portfolio of loans and mortgages) in exchange for fee payments, often a variable
stream of cashflows based on LIBOR. The funds may enter into credit default swap
agreements to hedge an existing position by purchasing or selling credit
protection. Credit default swaps enable an investor to buy/sell protection
against a credit event of a specific issuer. The seller of credit protection
against a security or basket of securities receives an up-front or periodic
payment to compensate against potential default event(s). The fund may enhance
returns by selling protection or attempt to mitigate credit risk by buying
protection. Market supply and demand factors may cause distortions between the
cash securities market and the credit default swap market.

Whether a fund's use of swap agreements will be successful depends on the
advisor's ability to predict correctly whether certain types of investments are
likely to produce greater returns than other investments. Interest rate swaps
could result in losses if interest rate changes are not correctly anticipated by
the fund. Total return swaps could result in losses if the reference index,
security, or investments do not perform as anticipated by the fund. Credit
default swaps could result in losses if the fund does not correctly evaluate the
creditworthiness of the issuer on which the credit default swap is based.
Because they are two-party contracts and because they may have terms of greater
than seven days, swap agreements may be considered to be illiquid. Moreover, a
fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap
agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement
counterparty. The funds will enter into swap agreements only with counterparties
that meet certain standards of creditworthiness. Certain restrictions imposed on
the funds by the Internal Revenue Code may limit the funds' ability to use swap
agreements. The swaps market is a relatively new market and is largely
unregulated. It is possible that developments in the swaps market, including
potential government regulation, could adversely affect a fund's ability to
terminate existing swap agreements or to realize amounts to be received under
such agreements.

Investment in Issuers with Limited Operating Histories

Each fund may invest up to 10% of its assets in the equity securities of issuers
with limited operating histories. The managers consider an issuer to have a
limited operating history if that issuer has a record of less than three years
of continuous operation. The managers will consider periods of capital
formation, incubation, consolidations, and research and development in
determining whether a particular issuer has a record of three years of
continuous operation.

Investments in securities of issuers with limited operating histories may
involve greater risks than investments in securities of more mature issuers. By
their nature, such issuers present limited operating histories and financial
information upon which the managers may base their investment decision on behalf
of the funds. In addition, financial and other information regarding such
issuers, when available, may be incomplete or inaccurate.

For purposes of this limitation, "issuers" refers to operating companies that
issue securities for the purposes of issuing debt or raising capital as a means
of financing their ongoing operations. It does not, however, refer to entities,
corporate or otherwise, that are created for the express purpose of securitizing
obligations or income streams. For example, a fund's investments in a trust
created for the purpose of pooling mortgage obligations would not be subject to
the limitation.

Repurchase Agreements

Each fund may invest in repurchase agreements when they present an attractive
short-term return on cash that is not otherwise committed to the purchase of
securities pursuant to the investment policies of that fund.

A repurchase agreement occurs when, at the time a fund purchases an
interest-bearing obligation, the seller (a bank or a broker-dealer registered
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) agrees to purchase it on a specified
date in the future at an agreed-upon price. The


------
7


repurchase price reflects an agreed-upon interest rate during the time the
fund's money is invested in the security.

Because the security purchased constitutes collateral for the repurchase
obligation, a repurchase agreement can be considered a loan collateralized by
the security purchased. The fund's risk is the seller's ability to pay the
agreed-upon repurchase price on the repurchase date. If the seller defaults, the
fund may incur costs in disposing of the collateral, which would reduce the
amount realized thereon. If the seller seeks relief under the bankruptcy laws,
the disposition of the collateral may be delayed or limited. To the extent the
value of the security decreases, the fund could experience a loss.

The funds will limit repurchase agreement transactions to securities issued by
the U.S. government and its agencies and instrumentalities, and will enter into
such transactions with those banks and securities dealers who are deemed
creditworthy by the funds' advisor.

Repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven days would count toward a
fund's 15% limit on illiquid securities.

When-Issued and Forward Commitment Agreements

The funds may sometimes purchase new issues of securities on a when-issued or
forward commitment basis in which the transaction price and yield are each fixed
at the time the commitment is made, but payment and delivery occur at a future
date.

For example, a fund may sell a security and at the same time make a commitment
to purchase the same or a comparable security at a future date and specified
price. Conversely, a fund may purchase a security and at the same time make a
commitment to sell the same or a comparable security at a future date and
specified price. These types of transactions are executed simultaneously in what
are known as dollar-rolls, buy/sell back transactions, cash and carry, or
financing transactions. For example, a broker-dealer may seek to purchase a
particular security that a fund owns. The fund will sell that security to the
broker-dealer and simultaneously enter into a forward commitment agreement to
buy it back at a future date. This type of transaction generates income for the
fund if the dealer is willing to execute the transaction at a favorable price in
order to acquire a specific security.

When purchasing securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis, a fund
assumes the rights and risks of ownership, including the risks of price and
yield fluctuations. Market rates of interest on debt securities at the time of
delivery may be higher or lower than those contracted for on the when-issued
security. Accordingly, the value of that security may decline prior to delivery,
which could result in a loss to the fund. While the fund will make commitments
to purchase or sell securities with the intention of actually receiving or
delivering them, it may sell the securities before the settlement date if doing
so is deemed advisable as a matter of investment strategy.

In purchasing securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis, a fund
will segregate cash, cash equivalents or other appropriate liquid securities on
its record in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When the time
comes to pay for the when-issued securities, the fund will meet its obligations
with available cash, through the sale of securities, or, although it would not
normally expect to do so, by selling the when-issued securities themselves
(which may have a market value greater or less than the fund's payment
obligation). Selling securities to meet when-issued or forward commitment
obligations may generate taxable capital gains or losses.

Restricted and Illiquid Securities

The funds may, from time to time, purchase restricted or illiquid securities,
including Rule 144A securities, when they present attractive investment
opportunities that otherwise meet the funds' criteria for selection. Rule 144A
securities are securities that are privately placed with and traded among
qualified institutional investors rather than the general public. Although Rule
144A securities are considered restricted securities, they are not necessarily
illiquid.


------
8


With respect to securities eligible for resale under Rule 144A, the staff of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has taken the position that the
liquidity of such securities in the portfolio of a fund offering redeemable
securities is a question of fact for the Board of Directors to determine, such
determination to be based upon a consideration of the readily available trading
markets and the review of any contractual restrictions. Accordingly, the Board
of Directors is responsible for developing and establishing the guidelines and
procedures for determining the liquidity of Rule 144A securities. As allowed by
Rule 144A, the Board of Directors has delegated the day-to-day function of
determining the liquidity of Rule 144A securities to the portfolio managers. The
board retains the responsibility to monitor the implementation of the guidelines
and procedures it has adopted.

Because the secondary market for restricted securities is generally limited to
certain qualified institutional investors, the liquidity of such securities may
be limited accordingly and a fund may, from time to time, hold a Rule 144A or
other security that is illiquid. In such an event, the portfolio managers will
consider appropriate remedies to minimize the effect on such fund's liquidity.

Short-Term Securities

In order to meet anticipated redemptions, anticipated purchases of additional
securities for a fund's portfolio, or, in some cases, for temporary defensive
purposes, these funds may invest a portion of their assets in money market and
other short-term securities.

Examples of those securities include:

*  Securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government and its agencies
   and instrumentalities

*  Commercial Paper

*  Certificates of Deposit and Euro Dollar Certificates of Deposit

*  Bankers' Acceptances

*  Short-term notes, bonds, debentures or other debt instruments

*  Repurchase agreements

*  Money market funds

Under the Investment Company Act, a fund's investment in other investment
companies (including money market funds) currently is limited to (a) 3% of the
total voting stock of any one investment company; (b) 5% of the fund's total
assets with respect to any one investment company; and (c) 10% of a fund's total
assets in the aggregate. These investments may include investments in money
market funds managed by the advisor. Any investment in money market funds must
be consistent with the investment policies and restrictions of the fund making
the investment.

Other Investment Companies

Each of the funds may invest up to 10% of its total assets in other investment
companies, such as mutual funds, provided that the investment is consistent with
the fund's investment policies and restrictions. These investments may include
investments in money market funds managed by the advisor. Under the Investment
Company Act, a fund's investment in such securities, subject to certain
exceptions, currently is limited to

*  3% of the total voting stock of any one investment company;

*  5% of the fund's total assets with respect to any one investment company;
   and

*  10% of a fund's total assets in the aggregate.

Such purchases will be made in the open market where no commission or profit to
a sponsor or dealer results from the purchase other than the customary brokers'
commissions. As a shareholder of another investment company, a fund would bear,
along with other shareholders, its pro rata portion of the other investment
company's expenses, including advisory fees. These expenses would be in addition
to the management fee that each fund bears directly in connection with its own
operations.

Each fund may invest in exchange traded funds (ETFs), such as Standard & Poor's
Depositary Receipts (SPDRs) and the Lehman Aggregate Bond ETF, with the same
percentage limitations

as investments in registered investment companies. ETFs are a type of fund
bought and sold on a securities exchange. An ETF trades like common stock and
usually represents a fixed portfolio of securities designed to track the
performance and dividend yield of a particular domestic or foreign market index.
A fund may purchase an ETF to temporarily gain exposure to a portion of the U.S.
or a foreign market while awaiting purchase of underlying securities. The risks
of owning an ETF generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities
they are designed to track, although the lack of liquidity on an ETF could
result in it being more volatile. Additionally, ETFs have management fees, which
increase their cost.

Futures and Options

Each fund may enter into futures contracts, options or options on futures
contracts. Futures contracts provide for the sale by one party and purchase by
another party of a specific security at a specified future time and price.
Generally, futures transactions will be used to:

*  protect against a decline in market value of the fund's securities (taking
   a short futures position),

*  protect against the risk of an increase in market value for securities in
   which the fund generally invests at a time when the fund is not fully
   invested (taking a long futures position), or

*  provide a temporary substitute for the purchase of an individual security
   that may not be purchased in an orderly fashion.

Some futures and options strategies, such as selling futures, buying puts and
writing calls, hedge a fund's investments against price fluctuations. Other
strategies, such as buying futures, writing puts and buying calls, tend to
increase market exposure.

Although other techniques may be used to control a fund's exposure to market
fluctuations, the use of futures contracts may be a more effective means of
hedging this exposure. While a fund pays brokerage commissions in connection
with opening and closing out futures positions, these costs are lower than the
transaction costs incurred in the purchase and sale of the underlying
securities.

For example, the sale of a future by a fund means the fund becomes obligated to
deliver the security (or securities, in the case of an index future) at a
specified price on a specified date. The purchase of a future means the fund
becomes obligated to buy the security (or securities) at a specified price on a
specified date. The portfolio managers may engage in futures and options
transactions based on securities indices, provided that the transactions are
consistent with the fund's investment objectives. Examples of indices that may
be used include the Bond Buyer Index of Municipal Bonds for fixed-income funds,
or the S&P 500 Index for equity funds. The managers also may engage in futures
and options transactions based on specific securities, such as U.S. Treasury
bonds or notes. Futures contracts are traded on national futures exchanges.
Futures exchanges and trading are regulated under the Commodity Exchange Act by
the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), a U.S. government agency.

Index futures contracts differ from traditional futures contracts in that when
delivery takes place, no stocks or bonds change hands. Instead, these contracts
settle in cash at the spot market value of the index. Although other types of
futures contracts by their terms call for actual delivery or acceptance of the
underlying securities, in most cases the contracts are closed out before the
settlement date. A futures position may be closed by taking an opposite position
in an identical contract (i.e., buying a contract that has previously been sold
or selling a contract that has previously been bought).

Unlike when the fund purchases or sells a security, no price is paid or received
by the fund upon the purchase or sale of the future. Initially, the fund will be
required to deposit an amount of cash or securities equal to a varying specified
percentage of the contract amount. This amount is known as initial margin. The
margin deposit is intended to ensure completion of the contract (delivery or
acceptance of the underlying security) if it is not terminated prior to the
specified delivery date. A margin deposit does not constitute a margin
transaction for purposes of the fund's investment restrictions. Minimum initial
margin requirements are established by the futures exchanges and may be revised.



------
10


In addition, brokers may establish margin deposit requirements that are higher
than the exchange minimums. Cash held in the margin accounts generally is not
income-producing. However, coupon bearing securities, such as Treasury bills and
bonds, held in margin accounts generally will earn income. Subsequent payments
to and from the broker, called variation margin, will be made on a daily basis
as the price of the underlying security or index fluctuates, making the future
more or less valuable, a process known as marking the contract to market.
Changes in variation margin are recorded by the fund as unrealized gains or
losses. At any time prior to expiration of the future, the fund may elect to
close the position by taking an opposite position. A final determination of
variation margin is then made; additional cash is required to be paid by or
released to the fund and the fund realizes a loss or gain.

RISKS RELATED TO FUTURES AND OPTIONS TRANSACTIONS

Futures and options prices can be volatile, and trading in these markets
involves certain risks. If the portfolio managers apply a hedge at an
inappropriate time or judge interest rate or equity market trends incorrectly,
futures and options strategies may lower a fund's return.

A fund could suffer losses if it is unable to close out its position because of
an illiquid secondary market. Futures contracts may be closed out only on an
exchange that provides a secondary market for these contracts, and there is no
assurance that a liquid secondary market will exist for any particular futures
contract at any particular time. Consequently, it may not be possible to close a
futures position when the portfolio managers consider it appropriate or
desirable to do so. In the event of adverse price movements, a fund would be
required to continue making daily cash payments to maintain its required margin.
If the fund had insufficient cash, it might have to sell portfolio securities to
meet daily margin requirements at a time when the portfolio managers would not
otherwise elect to do so. In addition, a fund may be required to deliver or take
delivery of instruments underlying futures contracts it holds. The portfolio
managers will seek to minimize these risks by limiting the futures contracts
entered into on behalf of the funds to those traded on national futures
exchanges and for which there appears to be a liquid secondary market.

A fund could suffer losses if the prices of its futures and options positions
were poorly correlated with its other investments, or if securities underlying
futures contracts purchased by a fund had different maturities than those of the
portfolio securities being hedged. Such imperfect correlation may give rise to
circumstances in which a fund loses money on a futures contract at the same time
that it experiences a decline in the value of its hedged portfolio securities. A
fund also could lose margin payments it has deposited with a margin broker, if,
for example, the broker became bankrupt.

Most futures exchanges limit the amount of fluctuation permitted in futures
contract prices during a single trading day. The daily limit establishes the
maximum amount that the price of a futures contract may vary either up or down
from the previous day's settlement price at the end of the trading session. Once
the daily limit has been reached in a particular type of contract, no trades may
be made on that day at a price beyond the limit. However, the daily limit
governs only price movement during a particular trading day and, therefore, does
not limit potential losses. In addition, the daily limit may prevent liquidation
of unfavorable positions. Futures contract prices have occasionally moved to the
daily limit for several consecutive trading days with little or no trading,
thereby preventing prompt liquidation of futures positions and subjecting some
futures traders to substantial losses.

OPTIONS ON FUTURES

By purchasing an option on a futures contract, a fund obtains the right, but not
the obligation, to sell the futures contract (a put option) or to buy the
contract (a call option) at a fixed strike price. A fund can terminate its
position in a put option by allowing it to expire or by exercising the option.
If the option is exercised, the fund completes the sale of the underlying
security at the strike price. Purchasing an option on a futures contract does
not require a fund to make margin payments unless the option is exercised.

Although they do not currently intend to do so, the funds may write (or sell)
call options that obligate them to sell (or deliver) the option's underlying
instrument upon exercise of the option. While the receipt of option premiums
would mitigate the effects of price declines, the funds would give up some
ability to participate in a price increase on the underlying security.


------
11


If a fund were to engage in options transactions, it would own the futures
contract at the time a call were written and would keep the contract open until
the obligation to deliver it pursuant to the call expired.

RESTRICTIONS ON THE USE OF FUTURES CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS

Each fund may enter into futures contracts, options or options on futures
contracts.

Under the Commodity Exchange Act, a fund may enter into futures and options
transactions (a) for hedging purposes without regard to the percentage of assets
committed to initial margin and option premiums or (b) for purposes other than
hedging, provided that assets committed to initial margin and option premiums do
not exceed 5% of the fund's total assets. To the extent required by law, each
fund will segregate cash, cash equivalents or other appropriate liquid
securities on its records in an amount sufficient to cover its obligations under
the futures contracts and options.

Forward Currency Exchange Contracts

Each fund may purchase and sell foreign currency on a spot (i.e., cash) basis
and may engage in forward currency contracts, currency options and futures
transactions for hedging or any other lawful purpose. See DERIVATIVE SECURITIES,
page 6.

The funds expect to use forward currency contracts under two circumstances:

(1)  When the portfolio managers are purchasing or selling a security
     denominated in a foreign currency and wish to lock in the U.S. dollar price
     of that security, the portfolio managers would be able to enter into a
     forward currency contract to do so;

(2)  When the portfolio managers believe that the currency of a particular
     foreign country may suffer a substantial decline against the U.S. dollar, a
     fund would be able to enter into a forward currency contract to sell
     foreign currency for a fixed U.S. dollar amount approximating the value of
     some or all of its portfolio securities either denominated in, or whose
     value is tied to, such foreign currency.

In the first circumstance, when a fund enters into a trade for the purchase or
sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency, it may be desirable to
establish (lock in) the U.S. dollar cost or proceeds. By entering into forward
currency contracts in U.S. dollars for the purchase or sale of a foreign
currency involved in an underlying security transaction, the fund will be able
to protect itself against a possible loss between trade and settlement dates
resulting from the adverse change in the relationship between the U.S. dollar
and the subject foreign currency.

In the second circumstance, when the portfolio managers believe that the
currency of a particular country may suffer a substantial decline relative to
the U.S. dollar, a fund could enter into a forward currency contract to sell for
a fixed dollar amount the amount in foreign currencies approximating the value
of some or all of its portfolio securities either denominated in, or whose value
is tied to, such foreign currency. The fund will cover outstanding forward
contracts by maintaining liquid portfolio securities denominated in, or whose
value is tied to, the currency underlying the forward contract or the currency
being hedged. To the extent that the fund is not able to cover its forward
currency positions with underlying portfolio securities, the fund will segregate
on its records cash or other liquid assets having a value equal to the aggregate
amount of the fund's commitments under the forward currency contact.

The precise matching of forward currency contracts in the amounts and values of
securities involved generally would not be possible because the future values of
such foreign currencies will change as a consequence of market movements in the
values of those securities between the date the forward currency contract is
entered into and the date it matures. Predicting short-term currency market
movements is extremely difficult, and the successful execution of short-term
hedging strategy is highly uncertain. The portfolio managers do not intend to
enter into such contracts on a regular basis. Normally, consideration of the
prospect for currency parities will be incorporated into the long-term
investment decisions made with respect to overall diversification strategies.
However, the portfolio managers believe that it is important to have flexibility
to enter into such forward currency contracts when they determine that a fund's
best interests may be served.


------
12


When the forward currency contract matures, the fund may either sell the
portfolio security and make delivery of the foreign currency, or it may retain
the security and terminate the obligation to deliver the foreign currency by
purchasing an offsetting forward currency contract with the same currency trader
that obligates the fund to purchase, on the same maturity date, the same amount
of the foreign currency.

It is impossible to forecast with absolute precision the market value of
portfolio securities at the expiration of the forward currency contract.
Accordingly, it may be necessary for a fund to purchase additional foreign
currency on the spot market (and bear the expense of such purchase) if the
market value of the security is less than the amount of foreign currency the
fund is obligated to deliver and if a decision is made to sell the security to
make delivery of the foreign currency the fund is obligated to deliver.

Equity Equivalents

In addition to investing in common stocks, the funds may invest in other equity
securities and equity equivalents, including securities that permit a fund to
receive an equity interest in an issuer, the opportunity to acquire an equity
interest in an issuer, or the opportunity to receive a return on its investment
that permits the fund to benefit from the growth over time in the equity of an
issuer. Examples of equity securities and equity equivalents include preferred
stock, convertible preferred stock and convertible debt securities.

Equity equivalents also may include securities whose value or return is derived
from the value or return of a different security.

Debt Securities

Each of the funds may invest in debt securities when the portfolio managers
believe such securities represent an attractive investment for the fund. The
funds may invest in debt securities for income, or as a defensive strategy when
the managers believe adverse economic or market conditions exist.

The value of debt securities in which the funds may invest will fluctuate based
upon changes in interest rates and the credit quality of the issuer. Debt
securities generally will be limited to investment-grade obligations. Investment
grade means that at the time of purchase, such obligations are rated within the
four highest categories by a nationally recognized statistical rating
organization (for example, at least Baa by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or
BBB by Standard & Poor's Corporation), or, if not rated, are of equivalent
investment quality as determined by the fund's advisor. According to Moody's,
bonds rated Baa are medium-grade and possess some speculative characteristics. A
BBB rating by S&P indicates S&P's belief that a security exhibits a satisfactory
degree of safety and capacity for repayment, but is more vulnerable to adverse
economic conditions and changing circumstances.

In addition, the value of a fund's investments in fixed-income securities will
change as prevailing interest rates change. In general, the prices of such
securities vary inversely with interest rates. As prevailing interest rates
fall, the prices of bonds and other securities that trade on a yield basis
generally rise. When prevailing interest rates rise, bond prices generally fall.
Depending upon the particular amount and type of fixed-income securities
holdings of a fund, these changes may impact the net asset value of that fund's
shares.

Municipal Notes

Municipal notes are issued by state and local governments or government entities
to provide short-term capital or to meet cash flow needs.

Tax Anticipation Notes (TANs) are issued in anticipation of seasonal tax
revenues, such as ad valorem property, income, sales, use and business taxes,
and are payable from these future taxes. TANs usually are general obligations of
the issuer. General obligations are backed by the issuer's full faith and credit
based on its ability to levy taxes for the timely payment of interest and
repayment of principal, although such levies may be constitutionally or
statutorily limited as to rate or amount.


------
13


Revenue Anticipation Notes (RANs) are issued with the expectation that receipt
of future revenues, such as federal revenue sharing or state aid payments, will
be used to repay the notes. Typically, these notes also constitute general
obligations of the issuer.

Bond Anticipation Notes (BANs) are issued to provide interim financing until
long-term financing can be arranged. In most cases, the long-term bonds provide
the money for repayment of the notes.

Municipal Bonds

Municipal bonds, which generally have maturities of more than one year when
issued, are designed to meet longer-term capital needs. These securities have
two principal classifications: general obligation bonds and revenue bonds.

General Obligation (GO) bonds are issued by states, counties, cities, towns and
regional districts to fund a variety of public projects, including construction
of and improvements to schools, highways, and water and sewer systems. GO bonds
are backed by the issuer's full faith and credit based on its ability to levy
taxes for the timely payment of interest and repayment of principal, although
such levies may be constitutionally or statutorily limited as to rate or amount.

Revenue Bonds are not backed by an issuer's taxing authority; rather, interest
and principal are secured by the net revenues from a project or facility.
Revenue bonds are issued to finance a variety of capital projects, including
construction or refurbishment of utility and waste disposal systems, highways,
bridges, tunnels, air and seaport facilities, schools and hospitals. Many
revenue bond issuers provide additional security in the form of a debt-service
reserve fund that may be used to make payments of interest and repayments of
principal on the issuer's obligations. Some revenue bond financings are further
protected by a state's assurance (without obligation) that it will make up
deficiencies in the debt-service reserve fund.

Industrial Development Bonds (IDBs), a type of revenue bond, are issued by or on
behalf of public authorities to finance privately operated facilities. These
bonds are used to finance business, manufacturing, housing, athletic and
pollution control projects, as well as public facilities such as mass transit
systems, air and seaport facilities and parking garages. Payment of interest and
repayment of principal on an IDB depend solely on the ability of the facility's
operator to meet financial obligations, and on the pledge, if any, of the real
or personal property financed. The interest earned on IDBs may be subject to the
federal alternative minimum tax.

Variable- and Floating-Rate Obligations

Variable- and floating-rate demand obligations (VRDOs and FRDOs) carry rights
that permit holders to demand payment of the unpaid principal plus accrued
interest, from the issuers or from financial intermediaries. Floating-rate
securities, or floaters, have interest rates that change whenever there is a
change in a designated base rate; variable-rate instruments provide for a
specified, periodic adjustment in the interest rate, which typically is based on
an index. These rate formulas are designed to result in a market value for the
VRDO or FRDO that approximates par value.

Obligations with Term Puts Attached

The funds may invest in fixed-rate bonds subject to third-party puts and
participation interests in such bonds that are held by a bank in trust or
otherwise, which have tender options or demand features attached. These tender
options or demand features permit the funds to tender (or put) their bonds to an
institution at periodic intervals and to receive the principal amount thereof.
The portfolio managers expect that the funds will pay more for securities with
puts attached than for securities without these liquidity features.

Because it is difficult to evaluate the likelihood of exercise or the potential
benefit of a put, puts normally will be determined to have a value of zero,
regardless of whether any direct or indirect consideration is paid. Accordingly,
puts as separate securities are not expected to affect the funds' weighted
average maturities. When a fund has paid for a put, the cost will


------
14


be reflected as unrealized depreciation on the underlying security for the
period the put is held. Any gain on the sale of the underlying security will be
reduced by the cost of the put.

There is a risk that the seller of an obligation with a put attached will not be
able to repurchase the underlying obligation when (or if) a fund attempts to
exercise the put. To minimize such risks, the funds will purchase obligations
with puts attached only from sellers deemed creditworthy by the portfolio
managers under the direction of the Board of Directors.

Zero-Coupon and Step-Coupon Securities

The funds may purchase zero-coupon debt securities. Zero-coupon securities do
not make regular cash interest payments, and are sold at a deep discount to
their face value.

The fund may also purchase step-coupon or step-rate debt securities. Instead of
having a fixed coupon for the life of the security, coupon or interest payments
may increase to predetermined rates at future dates. The issuer generally
retains the right to call the security. Some step-coupon securities are issued
with no coupon payments at all during an initial period, and only become
interest-bearing at a future date; these securities are sold at a deep discount
to their face value.

Although zero-coupon and certain step-coupon securities may not pay current cash
income, federal income tax law requires the holder to include in income each
year the portion of any original issue discount and other noncash income on such
securities accrued during that year. In order to continue to qualify for
treatment as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code and
avoid certain excise tax, the funds are required to make distributions of any
original issue discount and other noncash income accrued for each year.
Accordingly, the funds may be required to dispose of other portfolio securities,
which may occur in periods of adverse market prices, in order to generate a case
to meet these distribution requirements.

Inverse Floaters

The funds may hold inverse floaters. An inverse floater is a type of derivative
security that bears an interest rate that moves inversely to market interest
rates. As market interest rates rise, the interest rate on inverse floaters goes
down, and vice versa. Generally, this is accomplished by expressing the interest
rate on the inverse floater as an above-market fixed rate of interest, reduced
by an amount determined by reference to a market-based or bond-specific floating
interest rate (as well as by any fees associated with administering the inverse
floater program).

Inverse floaters may be issued in conjunction with an equal amount of Dutch
Auction floating-rate bonds (floaters), or a market-based index may be used to
set the interest rate on these securities. A Dutch Auction is an auction system
in which the price of the security is gradually lowered until it meets a
responsive bid and is sold. Floaters and inverse floaters may be brought to
market by (1) a broker-dealer who purchases fixed-rate bonds and places them in
a trust, or (2) an issuer seeking to reduce interest expenses by using a
floater/inverse floater structure in lieu of fixed-rate bonds.

In the case of a broker-dealer structured offering (where underlying fixed-rate
bonds have been placed in a trust), distributions from the underlying bonds are
allocated to floater and inverse floater holders in the following manner:

(i)  Floater holders receive interest based on rates set at a six-month
     interval or at a Dutch Auction, which is typically held every 28 to 35
     days. Current and prospective floater holders bid the minimum interest rate
     that they are willing to accept on the floaters, and the interest rate is
     set just high enough to ensure that all of the floaters are sold.

(ii) Inverse floater holders receive all of the interest that remains, if
     any, on the underlying bonds after floater interest and auction fees are
     paid. The interest rates on inverse floaters may be significantly reduced,
     even to zero, if interest rates rise.

Procedures for determining the interest payment on floaters and inverse floaters
brought to market directly by the issuer are comparable, although the interest
paid on the inverse floaters is based on a presumed coupon rate that would have
been required to bring fixed-rate bonds to market at the time the floaters and
inverse floaters were issued.


------
15


Where inverse floaters are issued in conjunction with floaters, inverse floater
holders may be given the right to acquire the underlying security (or to create
a fixed-rate bond) by calling an equal amount of corresponding floaters. The
underlying security may then be held or sold. However, typically, there are time
constraints and other limitations associated with any right to combine interests
and claim the underlying security.

Floater holders subject to a Dutch Auction procedure generally do not have the
right to put back their interests to the issuer or to a third party. If a Dutch
Auction fails, the floater holder may be required to hold its position until the
underlying bond matures, during which time interest on the floater is capped at
a predetermined rate.

The secondary market for floaters and inverse floaters may be limited. The
market value of inverse floaters tends to be significantly more volatile than
fixed-rate bonds.

U.S. Government Securities

U.S. Treasury bills, notes, zero-coupon bonds and other bonds are direct
obligations of the U.S. Treasury, which has never failed to pay interest and
repay principal when due. Treasury bills have initial maturities of one year or
less, Treasury notes from two to 10 years, and Treasury bonds more than 10
years. Although U.S. Treasury securities carry little principal risk if held to
maturity, the prices of these securities (like all debt securities) change
between issuance and maturity in response to fluctuating market interest rates.

A number of U.S. government agencies and instrumentalities issue debt
securities. These agencies generally are created by Congress to fulfill a
specific need, such as providing credit to home buyers or farmers. Among these
agencies are the Federal Home Loan Banks, the Federal Farm Credit Banks, the
Student Loan Marketing Association and the Resolution Funding Corporation.

Some agency securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S.
government, and some are guaranteed only by the issuing agency. Agency
securities typically offer somewhat higher yields than U.S. Treasury securities
with similar maturities. However, these securities may involve greater risk of
default than securities backed by the U.S. Treasury.

Interest rates on agency securities may be fixed for the term of the investment
(fixed-rate agency securities) or tied to prevailing interest rates
(floating-rate agency securities). Interest rate resets on floating-rate agency
securities generally occur at intervals of one year or less, based on changes in
a predetermined interest rate index.

Floating-rate agency securities frequently have caps limiting the extent to
which coupon rates can be raised. The price of a floating-rate agency security
may decline if its capped coupon rate is lower than prevailing market interest
rates. Fixed- and floating-rate agency securities may be issued with a call date
(which permits redemption before the maturity date). The exercise of a call may
reduce an obligation's yield to maturity.

INTEREST RATE RESETS ON FLOATING-RATE U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCY SECURITIES

Interest rate resets on floating-rate U.S. government agency securities
generally occur at intervals of one year or less in response to changes in a
predetermined interest rate index. There are two main categories of indices:
those based on U.S. Treasury securities and those derived from a calculated
measure, such as a cost-of-funds index. Commonly used indices include the
three-month, six-month and one-year Treasury bill rates; the two-year Treasury
note yield; the Eleventh District Federal Home Loan Bank Cost of Funds Index
(EDCOFI); and the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Fluctuations in the
prices of floating-rate U.S. government agency securities are typically
attributed to differences between the coupon rates on these securities and
prevailing market interest rates between interest rate reset dates.

Mortgage-Backed Securities

BACKGROUND

A mortgage-backed security represents an ownership interest in a pool of
mortgage loans. The loans are made by financial institutions to finance home and
other real estate purchases. As the loans are repaid, investors receive payments
of both interest and principal.

Like fixed-income securities such as U.S. Treasury bonds, mortgage-backed
securities pay a stated rate of interest during the life of the security.
However, unlike a bond, which returns principal to the investor in one lump sum
at maturity, mortgage-backed securities return principal to the investor in
increments during the life of the security.

Because the timing and speed of principal repayments vary, the cash flow on
mortgage-backed securities is irregular. If mortgage holders sell their homes,
refinance their loans, prepay their mortgages or default on their loans, the
principal is distributed pro rata to investors.

As with other fixed-income securities, the prices of mortgage-backed securities
fluctuate in response to changing interest rates; when interest rates fall, the
prices of mortgage-backed securities rise, and vice versa. Changing interest
rates have additional significance for mortgage-backed securities investors,
however, because they influence prepayment rates (the rates at which mortgage
holders prepay their mortgages), which in turn affect the yields on
mortgage-backed securities. When interest rates decline, prepayment rates
generally increase. Mortgage holders take advantage of the opportunity to
refinance their mortgages at lower rates with lower monthly payments. When
interest rates rise, mortgage holders are less inclined to refinance their
mortgages. The effect of prepayment activity on yield depends on whether the
mortgage-backed security was purchased at a premium or at a discount.

A fund may receive principal sooner than it expected because of accelerated
prepayments. Under these circumstances, the fund might have to reinvest returned
principal at rates lower than it would have earned if principal payments were
made on schedule. Conversely, a mortgage-backed security may exceed its
anticipated life if prepayment rates decelerate unexpectedly. Under these
circumstances, a fund might miss an opportunity to earn interest at higher
prevailing rates.

GNMA CERTIFICATES

The Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) is a wholly owned corporate
instrumentality of the United States within the Department of Housing and Urban
Development. The National Housing Act of 1934 (Housing Act), as amended,
authorizes GNMA to guarantee the timely payment of interest and repayment of
principal on certificates that are backed by a pool of mortgage loans insured by
the Federal Housing Administration under the Housing Act, or by Title V of the
Housing Act of 1949 (FHA Loans), or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans
Affairs under the Servicemen's Readjustment Act of 1944 (VA Loans), as amended,
or by pools of other eligible mortgage loans. The Housing Act provides that the
full faith and credit of the U.S. government is pledged to the payment of all
amounts that may be required to be paid under any guarantee. GNMA has unlimited
authority to borrow from the U.S. Treasury in order to meet its obligations
under this guarantee.

GNMA certificates represent a pro rata interest in one or more pools of the
following types of mortgage loans: (a) fixed-rate level payment mortgage loans;
(b) fixed-rate graduated payment mortgage loans (GPMs); (c) fixed-rate growing
equity mortgage loans (GEMs); (d) fixed-rate mortgage loans secured by
manufactured (mobile) homes (MHs); (e) mortgage loans on multifamily residential
properties under construction (CLCs); (f) mortgage loans on completed
multifamily projects (PLCs); (g) fixed-rate mortgage loans that use escrowed
funds to reduce the borrower's monthly payments during the early years of the
mortgage loans (buydown mortgage loans); and (h) mortgage loans that provide for
payment adjustments based on periodic changes in interest rates or in other
payment terms of the mortgage loans.

FANNIE MAE CERTIFICATES

The Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA or Fannie Mae) is a federally
chartered and privately owned corporation established under the Federal National
Mortgage Association Charter Act. Fannie Mae was originally established in 1938
as a U.S. government agency designed to provide supplemental liquidity to the
mortgage market and was reorganized as a stockholder-owned and privately managed
corporation by legislation enacted in 1968. Fannie Mae acquires capital from
investors who would not ordinarily invest in mortgage loans directly and thereby
expands the total amount of funds available for housing. This money is used to
buy home mortgage loans from local lenders, replenishing the supply of capital
available for mortgage lending.

Fannie Mae certificates represent a pro rata interest in one or more pools of
FHA Loans, VA Loans, or, most commonly, conventional mortgage loans (i.e.,
mortgage loans that are not insured or guaranteed by a government agency) of the
following types: (a) fixed-rate level payment mortgage loans; (b) fixed-rate
growing equity mortgage loans; (c) fixed-rate graduated payment mortgage loans;
(d) adjustable-rate mortgage loans; and (e) fixed-rate mortgage loans secured by
multifamily projects.

Fannie Mae certificates entitle the registered holder to receive amounts
representing a pro rata interest in scheduled principal and interest payments
(at the certificate's pass-through rate, which is net of any servicing and
guarantee fees on the underlying mortgage loans), any principal prepayments, and
a proportionate interest in the full principal amount of any foreclosed or
otherwise liquidated mortgage loan. The full and timely payment of interest and
repayment of principal on each Fannie Mae certificate is guaranteed by Fannie
Mae; this guarantee is not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S.
government.

FREDDIE MAC CERTIFICATES

The Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC or Freddie Mac) is a corporate
instrumentality of the United States created pursuant to the Emergency Home
Finance Act of 1970 (FHLMC Act), as amended. Freddie Mac was established
primarily for the purpose of increasing the availability of mortgage credit. Its
principal activity consists of purchasing first-lien conventional residential
mortgage loans (and participation interests in such mortgage loans) and
reselling these loans in the form of mortgage-backed securities, primarily
Freddie Mac certificates.

Freddie Mac certificates represent a pro rata interest in a group of mortgage
loans (a Freddie Mac certificate group) purchased by Freddie Mac. The mortgage
loans underlying Freddie Mac certificates consist of fixed- or adjustable-rate
mortgage loans with original terms to maturity of between 10 and 30 years,
substantially all of which are secured by first-liens on one- to four-family
residential properties or multifamily projects. Each mortgage loan must meet
standards set forth in the FHLMC Act. A Freddie Mac certificate group may
include whole loans, participation interests in whole loans, undivided interests
in whole loans, and participations composing another Freddie Mac certificate
group.

Freddie Mac guarantees to each registered holder of a Freddie Mac certificate
the timely payment of interest at the rate provided for by the certificate.
Freddie Mac also guarantees ultimate collection of all principal on the related
mortgage loans, without any offset or deduction, but generally does not
guarantee the timely repayment of principal. Freddie Mac may remit principal at
any time after default on an underlying mortgage loan, but no later than 30 days
following (a) foreclosure sale, (b) payment of a claim by any mortgage insurer,
or (c) the expiration of any right of redemption, whichever occurs later, and in
any event no later than one year after demand has been made upon the mortgager
for accelerated payment of principal. Obligations guaranteed by Freddie Mac are
not backed by the full faith and credit pledge of the U.S. government.

COLLATERALIZED MORTGAGE OBLIGATIONS (CMOS)

A CMO is a multiclass bond backed by a pool of mortgage pass-through
certificates or mortgage loans. CMOs may be collateralized by (a) GNMA, Fannie
Mae or Freddie Mac pass-through certificates; (b) unsecured mortgage loans
insured by the Federal Housing

18


Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans' Affairs; (c)
unsecuritized conventional mortgages; or (d) any combination thereof.

In structuring a CMO, an issuer distributes cash flow from the underlying
collateral over a series of classes called tranches. Each CMO is a set of two or
more tranches, with average lives and cash flow patterns designed to meet
specific investment objectives. The average life expectancies of the different
tranches in a four-part deal, for example, might be two, five, seven and 20
years.

As payments on the underlying mortgage loans are collected, the CMO issuer pays
the coupon rate of interest to the bondholders in each tranche. At the outset,
scheduled and unscheduled principal payments go to investors in the first
tranches. Investors in later tranches do not begin receiving principal payments
until the prior tranches are paid off. This basic type of CMO is known as a
sequential pay or plain vanilla CMO.

Some CMOs are structured so that the prepayment or market risks are transferred
from one tranche to another. Prepayment stability is improved in some tranches
if other tranches absorb more prepayment variability.

The final tranche of a CMO often takes the form of a Z-bond, also known as an
accrual bond or accretion bond. Holders of these securities receive no cash
until the earlier tranches are paid in full. During the period that the other
tranches are outstanding, periodic interest payments are added to the initial
face amount of the Z-bond but are not paid to investors. When the prior tranches
are retired, the Z-bond receives coupon payments on its higher principal balance
plus any principal prepayments from the underlying mortgage loans. The existence
of a Z-bond tranche helps stabilize cash flow patterns in the other tranches. In
a changing interest rate environment, however, the value of the Z-bond tends to
be more volatile.

As CMOs have evolved, some classes of CMO bonds have become more prevalent. The
planned amortization class (PAC) and targeted amortization class (TAC), for
example, were designed to reduce prepayment risk by establishing a sinking-fund
structure. PAC and TAC bonds assure to varying degrees that investors will
receive payments over a predetermined period under various prepayment scenarios.
Although PAC and TAC bonds are similar, PAC bonds are better able to provide
stable cash flows under various prepayment scenarios than TAC bonds because of
the order in which these tranches are paid.

The existence of a PAC or TAC tranche can create higher levels of risk for other
tranches in the CMO because the stability of the PAC or TAC tranche is achieved
by creating at least one other tranche - known as a companion bond, support or
non-PAC bond - that absorbs the variability of principal cash flows. Because
companion bonds have a high degree of average life variability, they generally
pay a higher yield. A TAC bond can have some of the prepayment variability of a
companion bond if there is also a PAC bond in the CMO issue.

Floating-rate CMO tranches (floaters) pay a variable rate of interest that is
usually tied to the LIBOR. Institutional investors with short-term liabilities,
such as commercial banks, often find floating-rate CMOs attractive investments.
Super floaters (which float a certain percentage above LIBOR) and inverse
floaters (which float inversely to LIBOR) are variations on the floater
structure that have highly variable cash flows.

STRIPPED MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES

Stripped mortgage-backed securities are created by segregating the cash flows
from underlying mortgage loans or mortgage securities to create two or more new
securities, each with a specified percentage of the underlying security's
principal or interest payments. Mortgage-backed securities may be partially
stripped so that each investor class receives some interest and some principal.
When securities are completely stripped, however, all of the interest is
distributed to holders of one type of security, known as an interest-only
security, or IO, and all of the principal is distributed to holders of another
type of security known as a principal-only security, or PO. Strips can be
created in a pass-through structure or as tranches of a CMO.


------
19


The market values of IOs and POs are very sensitive to interest rate and
prepayment rate fluctuations. POs, for example, increase (or decrease) in value
as interest rates decline (or rise). The price behavior of these securities also
depends on whether the mortgage collateral was purchased at a premium or
discount to its par value. Prepayments on discount coupon POs generally are much
lower than prepayments on premium coupon POs. IOs may be used to hedge a fund's
other investments because prepayments cause the value of an IO strip to move in
the opposite direction from other mortgage-backed securities.

COMMERCIAL MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES (CMBS)

CMBS are securities created from a pool of commercial mortgage loans, such as
loans for hotels, shopping centers, office buildings, apartment buildings, and
the like. Interest and principal payments from these loans are passed on to the
investor according to a particular schedule of payments. They may be issued by
U.S. government agencies or by private issuers. The credit quality of CMBS
depends primarily on the quality of the underlying loans and on the structure of
the particular deal. Generally, deals are structured with senior and subordinate
classes. Multiple classes may permit the issuance of securities with payment
terms, interest rates, or other characteristics differing both from those of
each other and those of the underlying assets. Examples include classes having
characteristics such as floating interest rates or scheduled amortization of
principal. Rating agencies rate the individual classes of the deal based on the
degree of seniority or subordination of a particular class and other factors.
The value of these securities may change because of actual or perceived changes
in the creditworthiness of individual borrowers, their tenants, the servicing
agents, or the general state of commercial real estate and other factors.

Adjustable-Rate Mortgage Loans (ARMs)

ARMs eligible for inclusion in a mortgage pool generally will provide for a
fixed initial mortgage interest rate for a specified period of time, generally
for either the first three, six, 12, 24, 36, 60 or 84 scheduled monthly
payments. Thereafter, the interest rates are subject to periodic adjustment
based on changes in an index.

ARMs have minimum and maximum rates beyond which the mortgage interest rate may
not vary over the lifetime of the loan. Certain ARMs provide for additional
limitations on the maximum amount by which the mortgage interest rate may adjust
for any single adjustment period. Negatively amortizing ARMs may provide
limitations on changes in the required monthly payment. Limitations on monthly
payments can result in monthly payments that are greater or less than the amount
necessary to amortize a negatively amortizing ARM by its maturity at the
interest rate in effect during any particular month.

There are two types of indices that provide the basis for ARM rate adjustments:
those based on market rates and those based on a calculated measure, such as a
cost-of-funds index or a moving average of mortgage rates. Commonly utilized
indices include the one-year, three-year and five-year constant maturity U.S.
Treasury rates (as reported by the Federal Reserve Board); the three-month
Treasury bill rate; the 180-day Treasury bill rate; rates on longer-term
Treasury securities; the Eleventh District Federal Home Loan Bank Cost of Funds
Index (EDCOFI); the National Median Cost of Funds Index; the one-month,
three-month, six-month or one-year London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR); or
six-month CD rates. Some indices, such as the one-year constant maturity
Treasury rate or three-month LIBOR, are highly correlated with changes in market
interest rates. Other indices, such as the EDCOFI, tend to lag behind changes in
market rates and be somewhat less volatile over short periods of time.

The EDCOFI reflects the monthly weighted average cost of funds of savings and
loan associations and savings banks whose home offices are located in Arizona,
California and Nevada (the Federal Home Loan Bank Eleventh District) and who are
member institutions of the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (the FHLB of
San Francisco), as computed from statistics tabulated and published by the FHLB
of San Francisco. The FHLB of San Francisco normally announces the Cost of Funds
Index on the last working day of the month following the month in which the cost
of funds was incurred.

One-year and three-year Constant Maturity Treasury (CMT) rates are calculated by
the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, based on daily closing bid yields on
actively traded


------
20


Treasury securities submitted by five leading broker-dealers. The median bid
yields are used to construct a daily yield curve.

The National Median Cost of Funds Index, similar to the EDCOFI, is calculated
monthly by the Federal Home Loan Bank Board (FHLBB) and represents the average
monthly interest expenses on liabilities of member institutions. A median,
rather than an arithmetic mean, is used to reduce the effect of extreme numbers.

LIBOR is the rate at which banks in London offer Eurodollars in trades between
banks. LIBOR has become a key rate in the U.S. domestic money market because it
is perceived to reflect the true global cost of money.

The portfolio managers may invest in ARMs whose periodic interest rate
adjustments are based on new indices as these indices become available.

Asset-Backed Securities (ABS)

ABS are structured like mortgage-backed securities, but instead of mortgage
loans or interest in mortgage loans, the underlying assets may include, for
example, such items as motor vehicle installment sales or installment loan
contracts, leases of various types of real and personal property, home equity
loans, student loans, small business loans, and receivables from credit card
agreements. The ability of an issuer of asset-backed securities to enforce its
security interest in the underlying assets may be limited. The value of an ABS
is affected by changes in the market's perception of the assets backing the
security, the creditworthiness of the servicing agent for the loan pool, the
originator of the loans, or the financial institution providing any credit
enhancement.

Payments of principal and interest passed through to holders of ABS are
typically supported by some form of credit enhancement, such as a letter of
credit, surety bond, limited guarantee by another entity or a priority to
certain of the borrower's other securities. The degree of credit enhancement
varies, and generally applies to only a fraction of the asset-backed security's
par value until exhausted. If the credit enhancement of an ABS held by the fund
has been exhausted, and if any required payments of principal and interest are
not made with respect to the underlying loans, the fund may experience losses or
delays in receiving payment.

Some types of ABS may be less effective than other types of securities as a
means of "locking in" attractive long-term interest rates. One reason is the
need to reinvest prepayments of principal; another is the possibility of
significant unscheduled prepayments resulting from declines in interest rates.
These prepayments would have to be reinvested at lower rates. As a result, these
securities may have less potential for capital appreciation during periods of
declining interest rates than other securities of comparable maturities,
although they may have a similar risk of decline in market value during periods
of rising interest rates. Prepayments may also significantly shorten the
effective maturities of these securities, especially during periods of declining
interest rates. Conversely, during periods of rising interest rates, a reduction
in prepayments may increase the effective maturities of these securities,
subjecting them to a greater risk of decline in market value in response to
rising interest rates than traditional debt securities, and, therefore,
potentially increasing the volatility of the fund.

The risks of investing in ABS are ultimately dependent upon the repayment of
loans by the individual or corporate borrowers. Although the fund would
generally have no recourse against the entity that originated the loans in the
event of default by a borrower, ABS typically are structured to mitigate this
risk of default.

Asset-backed securities are generally issued in more than one class, each with
different payment terms. Multiple class asset-backed securities may be used as a
method of providing credit support through creation of one or more classes whose
right to payments is made subordinate to the right to such payments of the
remaining class or classes. Multiple classes also may permit the issuance of
securities with payment terms, interest rates or other characteristics differing
both from those of each other and from those of the underlying assets. Examples
include so-called strips (asset-backed securities entitling the holder to
disproportionate interests with respect to the allocation of interest and
principal of the assets backing the security), and securities with classes
having characteristics such as floating interest rates or scheduled amortization
of principal.

TRACERS(SM)/TRAINS(SM)

The funds may invest in TRACERS and TRAINS which represent ownership of a
specified percentage of each security in an underlying pool of securities.
Owners are entitled to receive a pro rata share of distributions from the
underlying securities. In the event an underlying security is downgraded by a
rating agency, that portion of the investment product will be redeemed and the
underlying security will be distributed to the owner pro rata or the owner may
receive cash proceeds. The risk of owning these products are the same as owning
the individual securities, but enable the fund to be more diversified by owning
a single security.

INVESTMENT POLICIES

Unless otherwise indicated, with the exception of the percentage limitations on
borrowing, the policies described below apply at the time a fund enters into a
transaction. Accordingly, any later increase or decrease beyond the specified
limitation resulting from a change in a fund's assets will not be considered in
determining whether it has complied with its investment policies.



Fundamental Investment Policies

The funds' fundamental investment policies are set forth below. These investment
policies and the funds' investment objectives set forth in their prospectuses
may not be changed without approval of a majority of the outstanding votes of
shareholders of a fund, as determined in accordance with the Investment Company
Act.

SUBJECT              POLICY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Senior               A fund may not issue senior securities, except as
Securities           permitted under the Investment Company Act.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Borrowing            A fund may not borrow money, except for temporary or
                     emergency purposes (not for leveraging or investment)
                     in an amount not exceeding 33-1/3% of the fund's
                     total assets.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lending              A fund may not lend any security or make any other loan
                     if, as a result, more than 33-1/3% of the fund's total
                     assets would be lent to other parties, except (i) through
                     the purchase of debt securities in accordance with its
                     investment objective, policies and limitations or (ii) by
                     engaging in repurchase agreements with respect to
                     portfolio securities.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Real Estate          A fund may not purchase or sell real estate unless
                     acquired as a result of ownership of securities or other
                     instruments. This policy shall not prevent a fund from
                     investing in securities or other instruments backed by
                     real estate or securities of companies that deal in real
                     estate or are engaged in the real estate business.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Concentration        A fund may not concentrate its investments in securities
                     of issuers in a particular industry (other than securities
                     issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or any
                     of its agencies or instrumentalities). For the purpose
                     of concentration, industry is defined to mean those
                     companies that are assigned the same sub-industry
                     classification under the Global Industry Classification
                     Standard (GICS).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Underwriting         A fund may not act as an underwriter of securities
                     issued by others, except to the extent that the fund may
                     be considered an underwriter within the meaning of the
                     Securities Act of 1933 in the disposition of restricted
                     securities.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commodities          A fund may not purchase or sell physical commodities
                     unless acquired as a result of ownership of securities or
                     other instruments, provided that this limitation shall not
                     prohibit the fund from purchasing or selling options and
                     futures contracts or from investing in securities or other
                     instruments backed by physical commodities.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Control              A fund may not invest for purposes of exercising control
                     over management.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


For purposes of the investment policies relating to lending and borrowing, the
funds have received an exemptive order from the SEC regarding an interfund
lending program. Under the terms of the exemptive order, the funds may borrow
money from or lend money to other American Century-advised funds that permit
such transactions. All such transactions will be subject to the limits for
borrowing and lending set forth above. The funds will borrow money through the
program only when the costs are equal to or lower than the costs of short-term


------
22


bank loans. Interfund loans and borrowings normally extend only overnight, but
can have a maximum duration of seven days. The funds will lend through the
program only when the returns are higher than those available from other
short-term instruments (such as repurchase agreements). The funds may have to
borrow from a bank at a higher interest rate if an interfund loan is called or
not renewed. Any delay in repayment to a lending fund could result in a lost
investment opportunity or additional borrowing costs.

For purposes of the investment policy relating to concentration, a fund shall
not purchase any securities that would cause 25% or more of the value of the
fund's total assets at the time of purchase to be invested in the securities of
one or more issuers conducting their principal business activities in the same
industry, provided that

(a)  there is no limitation with respect to obligations issued or
     guaranteed by the U.S. government, any state, territory or possession of
     the United States, the District of Columbia or any of their authorities,
     agencies, instrumentalities or political subdivisions and repurchase
     agreements secured by such obligations,

(b)  wholly owned finance companies will be considered to be in the
     industries of their parents if their activities are primarily related to
     financing the activities of their parents,

(c)  utilities will be divided according to their services, for example,
     gas, gas transmission, electric and gas, electric, and telephone will each
     be considered a separate industry, and

(d)  personal credit and business credit businesses will be considered
     separate industries.

For the purpose of concentration, industry is defined as those companies that
are assigned the same sub-industry classification under the Global Industry
Classification Standard (GICS).



Nonfundamental Investment Policies

In addition, the funds are subject to the following investment policies that are
not fundamental and may be changed by the Board of Directors.

SUBJECT           POLICY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Leveraging        A fund may not purchase additional investment securities
                  at any time during which outstanding borrowings exceed
                  5% of the total assets of the fund.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Liquidity         A fund may not purchase any security or enter into a
                  repurchase agreement if, as a result, more than 15% of its
                  net assets would be invested in illiquid securities. Illiquid
                  securities include repurchase agreements not entitling the
                  holder to payment of principal and interest within seven
                  days, and securities that are illiquid by virtue of legal or
                  contractual restrictions on resale or the absence of a
                  readily available market.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Short Sales       A fund may not sell securities short, unless it owns or has
                  the right to obtain securities equivalent in kind and amount
                  to the securities sold short, and provided that transactions
                  in futures contracts and options are not deemed to
                  constitute selling securities short.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Margin            A fund may not purchase securities on margin, except
                  to obtain such short-term credits as are necessary for
                  the clearance of transactions, and provided that margin
                  payments in connection with futures contracts and options
                  on futures contracts shall not constitute purchasing
                  securities on margin.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Futures           A fund may enter into futures contracts and write and buy
and Options       put and call options relating to futures contracts. A fund
                  may not, however, enter into leveraged futures transactions
                  if it would be possible for the fund to lose more than the
                  notional value of the investment.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issuers with      A fund may invest a portion of its assets in the equity
Limited           securities of issuers with limited operating histories. An
Operating         issuer is considered to have a limited operating history
Histories         if that issuer has a record of less than three years of
                  continuous operation. Periods of capital formation,
                  incubation, consolidations, and research and development
                  may be considered in determining whether a particular
                  issuer has a record of three years of continuous operation.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The Investment Company Act imposes certain additional restrictions upon the
funds' ability to acquire securities issued by insurance companies,
broker-dealers, underwriters or investment advisors, and upon transactions with
affiliated persons as defined by the Act. It also defines and forbids the
creation of cross and circular ownership. Neither the SEC nor any other agency
of the federal or state government participates in or supervises the management
of the funds or their investment practices or policies.


------
23


TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE MEASURES

For temporary defensive purposes, each fund may invest in securities that may
not fit its investment objective or its stated market. During a temporary
defensive period, a fund may invest a portion of its assets in money market and
other short-term securities.

Examples of those securities include:

*  securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government and its agencies
   and instrumentalities;

*  commercial paper;

*  interest-bearing bank accounts or certificates of deposit;

*  short-term notes, bonds, or other debt instruments;

*  repurchase agreements; and

*  money market funds.

To the extent a fund assumes a defensive position, it will not be pursuing its
investment objective.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

The portfolio turnover rate of each fund will be listed in the Financial
Highlights table in that fund's prospectus. Because they are new, the funds do
not yet have financial highlights.

The managers may sell securities without regard to the length of time the
securities have been held. Accordingly, each fund's portfolio turnover rate may
be substantial.

The portfolio managers intend to purchase a given security whenever they believe
it will contribute to the stated objective of a particular fund. In order to
achieve each fund's investment objective, the managers may sell a given security
regardless of the length of time it has been held in the portfolio, and
regardless of the gain or loss realized on the sale. The managers may sell a
portfolio security if they believe that the security is not fulfilling its
purpose because, among other things, it did not live up to the managers'
expectations, because it may be replaced with another security holding greater
promise, because it has reached its optimum potential, because of a change in
the circumstances of a particular company or industry or in general economic
conditions, or because of some combination of such reasons.

When a general decline in security prices is anticipated, the equity funds may
decrease or eliminate entirely their equity positions and increase their cash
positions, and when a general rise in price levels is anticipated, the equity
funds may increase their equity positions and decrease their cash positions.
However, it should be expected that the funds will, under most circumstances, be
essentially fully invested in equity securities.

Because investment decisions are based on a particular security's anticipated
contribution to a fund's investment objective, the managers believe that the
rate of portfolio turnover is irrelevant when they determine that a change is
required to pursue the fund's investment objective. As a result, a fund's annual
portfolio turnover rate cannot be anticipated and may be higher than that of
other mutual funds with similar investment objectives. Higher turnover would
generate correspondingly greater brokerage commissions, which is a cost the
funds pay directly. Portfolio turnover also may affect the character of capital
gains realized and distributed by the fund, if any, because short-term capital
gains are taxable as ordinary income.

Because the managers do not take portfolio turnover rate into account in making
investment decisions, (1) the managers have no intention of maintaining any
particular rate of portfolio turnover, whether high or low, and (2) the
portfolio turnover rates in the past should not be considered as representative
of the rates that will be attained in the future.

Variations in a fund's portfolio turnover rate from year to year may be due to a
fluctuating volume of shareholder purchase and redemption activity, varying
market conditions, and/or changes in the managers' investment outlook.

MANAGEMENT

The individuals listed below serve as directors or officers of the funds. Each
director serves until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or
until he or she retires. Mandatory retirement age for independent directors is
72. Those listed as interested directors are "interested" primarily by virtue of
their engagement as officers of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC) or its
wholly owned, direct or indirect, subsidiaries, including the funds' investment
advisor, American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM or the advisor); the
funds' principal


------
24


underwriter, American Century Investment Services, Inc. (ACIS); and the funds'
transfer agent, American Century Services, LLC (ACS).

The other directors (more than three-fourths of the total number) are
independent; that is, they have never been employees or officers of, and have no
financial interest in, ACC or any of its wholly owned, direct or indirect,
subsidiaries, including ACIM, ACIS and ACS. The directors serve in this capacity
for six registered investment companies in the American Century family of funds.

All persons named as officers of the funds also serve in similar capacities for
the other 14 investment companies advised by ACIM or American Century Global
Investment Management, Inc. (ACGIM), a wholly owned subsidiary of ACIM, unless
otherwise noted. Only officers with policy-making functions are listed. No
officer is compensated for his or her service as an officer of the funds. The
listed officers are interested persons of the funds and appointed or
re-appointed on an annual basis. The officers serve in similar capacities for
the other 14 registered investment companies advised by ACIM or ACGIM.

On December 23, 1999, American Century Services, LLC (ACS) entered into an
agreement with DST Systems, Inc. (DST) under which DST would provide back office
software and support services for transfer agency services provided by ACS (the
Agreement). ACS pays DST fees based in part on the number of accounts and the
number and type of transactions processed for those accounts. Through December
31, 2005, DST received $21,201,953 in fees from ACS. DST's revenue for the
calendar year ended December 31, 2005 was approximately $2.52 billion.

Ms. Strandjord is a director of DST and a holder of 28,031 shares and possesses
options to acquire an additional 55,890 shares of DST common stock, the sum of
which is less than one percent (1%) of the shares outstanding. Because of her
official duties as a director of DST, she may be deemed to have an "indirect
interest" in the Agreement. However, the Board of Directors of the funds was not
required to nor did it approve or disapprove the Agreement, since the provision
of the services covered by the Agreement is within the discretion of ACS. DST
was chosen by ACS for its industry-leading role in providing cost-effective back
office support for mutual fund service providers such as ACS. DST is the largest
mutual fund transfer agent, servicing more than 75 million mutual fund accounts
on its shareholder recordkeeping system. Ms. Strandjord's role as a director of
DST was not considered by ACS; she was not involved in any way with the
negotiations between ACS and DST; and her status as a director of either DST or
the funds was not a factor in the negotiations. The Board of Directors of the
funds and Bryan Cave LLP, counsel to the independent directors of the funds,
have concluded that the existence of this Agreement does not impair Ms.
Strandjord's ability to serve as an independent director under the Investment
Company Act.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors oversees the management of the funds and meets at least
quarterly to review reports about fund operations. Although the Board of
Directors does not manage the funds, it has hired the advisor to do so. The
directors, in carrying out their fiduciary duty under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, are responsible for approving new and existing management contracts
with the funds' advisor.

The board has the authority to manage the business of the funds on behalf of
their investors, and it has all powers necessary or convenient to carry out that
responsibility. Consequently, the directors may adopt Bylaws providing for the
regulation and management of the affairs of the funds and may amend and repeal
them to the extent that such Bylaws do not reserve that right to the funds'
investors. They may fill vacancies in or reduce the number of board members, and
may elect and remove such officers and appoint and terminate such agents as they
consider appropriate. They may appoint from their own number and establish and
terminate one or more committees consisting of two or more directors who may
exercise the powers and authority of the board to the extent that the directors
determine. They may, in general, delegate such authority as they consider
desirable to any officer of the funds, to any committee of the board, to any
agent or employee of the funds, or to any custodian, transfer or investor
servicing agent, or principal underwriter. Any determination as to what is in
the interests of the funds made by the directors in good faith shall be
conclusive.

The Advisory Board

The funds also have an Advisory Board. Members of the Advisory Board, if any,
function like fund directors in many respects, but do not possess voting power.
Advisory Board members attend all meetings of the Board of Directors and the
independent directors and receive any materials distributed in connection with
such meetings. Advisory Board members may be considered as candidates to fill
vacancies on the Board of Directors.

Committees

The board has five standing committees to oversee specific functions of the
funds' operations. Information about these committees appears in the table
below. The director first named serves as chairman of the committee.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMMITTEE: Executive

MEMBERS: Donald H. Pratt, James E. Stowers III, M. Jeannine Strandjord

FUNCTION: The Executive Committee performs the functions of the Board of
Directors between board meetings, subject to the limitations on its power set
out in the Maryland General Corporation Law, and except for matters required by
the Investment Company Act to be acted upon by the whole board.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMMITTEE: Audit

MEMBERS: D.D. (Del) Hock, Thomas A. Brown, Donald H. Pratt, Timothy S. Webster

registered public accounting firm, recommends approval of such engagement to the
independent trustees, and oversees the activities of the funds' independent
registered public accounting firm. The committee receives reports from the
advisor's Internal Audit Department, which is accountable to the committee. The
committee also receives reporting about compliance matters affecting the funds.

individuals for nomination as directors. The names of potential director
candidates are drawn from a number of sources, including recommendations from
members of the board, management (in the case of interested directors only) and
shareholders. See NOMINATIONS OF DIRECTORS on next page. This committee also
reviews and makes recommendations to the board with respect to the composition
of board committees and other board-related matters, including its organization,
size, composition, responsibilities, functions and compensation.

(1)  ADVISORY BOARD MEMBER

Nominations of Directors

As indicated in the table above, the Governance Committee is responsible for
identifying, evaluating and recommending qualified candidates for election to
the funds' Board of Directors. While the Governance Committee largely considers
nominees from searches that it conducts, the Committee will consider director
candidates submitted by shareholders. Any shareholder wishing to submit a
candidate for consideration should send the following information to the
Corporate Secretary, American Century Funds, P.O. Box 410141, Kansas City, MO
64141 or by email to corporatesecretary@americancentury.com:

*  Shareholder's name, the fund name and number of fund shares owned and
   length of period held;

*  Name, age and address of the candidate;

*  A detailed resume describing, among other things, the candidate's
   educational background, occupation, employment history, financial knowledge
   and expertise and material outside commitments (e.g., memberships on other
   boards and committees, charitable foundations, etc.);

*  Any other information relating to the candidate that is required to be
   disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in an
   election contest pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act
   of 1934;

*  Number of fund shares owned by the candidate and length of time held;

*  A supporting statement which (i) describes the candidate's reasons for
   seeking election to the Board of Directors and (ii) documents his/her ability
   to satisfy the director qualifications described in the board's policy; and

*  A signed statement from the candidate confirming his/her willingness to
   serve on the Board of Directors.

The Corporate Secretary will promptly forward such materials to the Governance
Committee chairman. The Corporate Secretary also will maintain copies of such
materials for future reference by the Governance Committee when filling board
positions.

Shareholders may submit potential director candidates at any time pursuant to
these procedures. The Governance Committee will consider such candidates if a
vacancy arises or if the board decides to expand its membership, and at such
other times as the Governance Committee deems necessary or appropriate.

Compensation of Directors

The directors serve as directors for seven American Century investment
companies. Each director who is not an interested person as defined in the
Investment Company Act receives compensation for service as a member of the
board of all such companies based on a schedule that takes into account the
number of meetings attended and the assets of the funds for which the meetings
are held. These fees and expenses are divided among the investment companies
based, in part, upon their relative net assets. Under the terms of the
management agreement with the advisor, the funds are responsible for paying such
fees and expenses.

The following table shows the aggregate compensation paid by the funds for the
periods indicated and by the investment companies served by the board to each
director who is not an interested person as defined in the Investment Company
Act.

(1)  THE FUNDS WERE NOT IN OPERATION AS OF JULY 31, 2005.

(2)  INCLUDES COMPENSATION PAID BY THE INVESTMENT COMPANIES OF THE AMERICAN
     CENTURY FAMILY OF FUNDS SERVED BY THIS BOARD AT THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR.
     THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF DEFERRED COMPENSATION INCLUDED IN THE PRECEDING TABLE
     IS AS FOLLOWS: MR. BROWN, $16,256; DR. HALL, $87,781; MR. HOCK, $87,781;
     MR. PRATT, $15,938; MR. SAYERS, $93,781; AND MR. WEBSTER, $46,515.

The funds have adopted the American Century Mutual Funds' Independent Directors'
Deferred Compensation Plan. Under the plan, the independent directors may defer
receipt of all or any part of the fees to be paid to them for serving as
directors of the funds.

All deferred fees are credited to an account established in the name of the
directors. The amounts credited to the account then increase or decrease, as the
case may be, in accordance with the performance of one or more of the American
Century funds that are selected by the director. The account balance continues
to fluctuate in accordance with the performance of the selected fund or funds
until final payment of all amounts credited to the account. Directors are
allowed to change their designation of mutual funds from time to time.

No deferred fees are payable until such time as a director resigns, retires or
otherwise ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors. Directors may receive
deferred fee account balances either in a lump sum payment or in substantially
equal installment payments to be made over a period not to exceed 10 years. Upon
the death of a director, all remaining deferred fee account balances are paid to
the director's beneficiary or, if none, to the director's estate.

The plan is an unfunded plan and, accordingly, the funds have no obligation to
segregate assets to secure or fund the deferred fees. To date, the funds have
voluntarily funded their obligations. The rights of directors to receive their
deferred fee account balances are the same as the rights of a general unsecured
creditor of the funds. The plan may be terminated at any time by the
administrative committee of the plan. If terminated, all deferred fee account
balances will be paid in a lump sum.

No deferred fees were paid to any director under the plan during the fiscal year
ended July 31, 2005.

OWNERSHIP OF FUND SHARES

Because the funds had not commenced operations as of the calendar year end, they
are not included in the table below. However, the directors' ownership in all
registered investment companies in the family of investment companies as of
December 31, 2005, is shown in the table below.

CODE OF ETHICS

The funds, their investment advisor and principal underwriter have adopted codes
of ethics under Rule 17j-1 of the Investment Company Act. They permit personnel
subject to the codes to invest in securities, including securities that may be
purchased or held by the funds, provided that they first obtain approval from
the compliance department before making such investments.

PROXY VOTING GUIDELINES

The advisor is responsible for exercising the voting rights associated with the
securities purchased and/or held by the funds. In exercising its voting
obligations, the advisor is guided by general fiduciary principles. It must act
prudently, solely in the interest of the funds, and for the exclusive purpose of
providing benefits to them. The advisor attempts to consider all factors of its
vote that could affect the value of the investment. The funds' Board of
Directors has approved the advisor's proxy voting guidelines to govern the
advisor's proxy voting activities.

The advisor and the board have agreed on certain significant contributors to
shareholder value with respect to a number of matters that are often the subject
of proxy solicitations for shareholder meetings. The proxy voting guidelines
specifically address these considerations and establish a framework for the
advisor's consideration of the vote that would be appropriate for the funds. In
particular, the proxy voting guidelines outline principles and factors to be
considered in the exercise of voting authority for proposals addressing:

*  Election of Directors
*  Ratification of Selection of Auditors
*  Equity-Based Compensation Plans
*  Anti-Takeover Proposals
   *  Cumulative Voting
   *  Staggered Boards
   *  "Blank Check" Preferred Stock
   *  Elimination of Preemptive Rights
   *  Non-targeted Share Repurchase
   *  Increase in Authorized Common Stock


------
31


   *  "Supermajority" Voting Provisions or Super Voting Share Classes
   *  "Fair Price" Amendments
   *  Limiting the Right to Call Special Shareholder Meetings
   *  Poison Pills or Shareholder Rights Plans
   *  Golden Parachutes
   *  Reincorporation
   *  Confidential Voting
   *  Opting In or Out of State Takeover Laws
*  Shareholder Proposals Involving Social, Moral or Ethical Matters
*  Anti-Greenmail Proposals
*  Changes to Indemnification Provisions
*  Non-Stock Incentive Plans
*  Director Tenure
*  Directors' Stock Options Plans
*  Director Share Ownership

Finally, the proxy voting guidelines establish procedures for voting of proxies
in cases in which the advisor may have a potential conflict of interest.
Companies with which the advisor has direct business relationships could
theoretically use these relationships to attempt to unduly influence the manner
in which American Century votes on matters for the funds. To ensure that such a
conflict of interest does not affect proxy votes cast for the funds, all
discretionary (including case-by-case) voting for these companies will be voted
in direct consultation with a committee of the independent directors of the
funds.

A copy of the advisor's proxy voting guidelines and information regarding how
the advisor voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most
recent 12-month period ended June 30 are available on the ABOUT US page at
americancentury.com. The advisor's proxy voting record also is available on the
SEC's website at sec.gov.

DISCLOSURE OF PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS

The advisor (ACIM) has adopted policies and procedures with respect to the
disclosure of fund portfolio holdings and characteristics, which are described
below.

Distribution to the Public

Full portfolio holdings for each fund will be made available for distribution 30
days after the end of each calendar quarter, and will be posted on
americancentury.com at approximately the same time. This disclosure is in
addition to the portfolio disclosure in annual and semi-annual shareholder
reports, and on Form N-Q, which disclosures are filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission within sixty days of each fiscal quarter end and also posted
on americancentury.com at the time the filings are made.

Top 10 holdings for each fund will be made available for distribution monthly 30
days after the end of each month, and will be posted on americancentury.com at
approximately the same time.

Certain portfolio characteristics determined to be sensitive and confidential
will be made available for distribution monthly 30 days after the end of each
month, and will be posted on americancentury.com at approximately the same time.
Characteristics not deemed confidential will be available for distribution at
any time. The advisor may make determinations of confidentiality on a
fund-by-fund basis, and may add or delete characteristics from those considered
confidential at any time.

So long as portfolio holdings are disclosed in accordance with the above
parameters, the advisor makes no distinction among different categories of
recipients, such as individual investors, institutional investors,
intermediaries that distribute the funds' shares, third-party service providers,
rating and ranking organizations, and fund affiliates. Because this information
is publicly available and widely disseminated, the advisor places no conditions
or restrictions on, and does not monitor, its use. Nor does the advisor require
special authorization for its disclosure.


------
32


Accelerated Disclosure

The advisor recognizes that certain parties, in addition to the advisor and its
affiliates, may have legitimate needs for information about portfolio holdings
and characteristics prior to the times prescribed above. Such accelerated
disclosure is permitted under the circumstances described below.

ONGOING ARRANGEMENTS

Certain parties, such as investment consultants who provide regular analysis of
fund portfolios for their clients and intermediaries who pass through
information to fund shareholders, may have legitimate needs for accelerated
disclosure. These needs may include, for example, the preparation of reports for
customers who invest in the funds, the creation of analyses of fund
characteristics for intermediary or consultant clients, the reformatting of data
for distribution to the intermediary's or consultant's clients, and the review
of fund performance for ERISA fiduciary purposes.

In such cases, accelerated disclosure is permitted if the service provider
enters an appropriate non-disclosure agreement with the funds' distributor in
which it agrees to treat the information confidentially until the public
distribution date and represents that the information will be used only for the
legitimate services provided to its clients (i.e., not for trading).
Non-disclosure agreements require the approval of an attorney in the advisor's
Legal Department. The advisor's Compliance Department receives quarterly reports
detailing which clients received accelerated disclosure, what they received,
when they received it and the purposes of such disclosure. Compliance personnel
are required to confirm that an appropriate non-disclosure agreement has been

Once a party has executed a non-disclosure agreement, it may receive any or all
of the following data for funds in which its clients have investments or are
actively considering investment:

(1)  Full holdings quarterly as soon as reasonably available;

(2)  Full holdings monthly as soon as reasonably available;

(3)  Top 10 holdings monthly as soon as reasonably available; and

(4)  Portfolio characteristics monthly as soon as reasonably available.


------
34


The types, frequency and timing of disclosure to such parties vary. In most
situations, the information provided pursuant to a non-disclosure agreement is
limited to certain portfolio characteristics and/or top 10 holdings, which
information is provided on a monthly basis. In limited situations, and when
approved by a member of the legal department and responsible chief investment
officer, full holdings may be provided.

SINGLE EVENT REQUESTS

In certain circumstances, the advisor may provide fund holding information on an
accelerated basis outside of an ongoing arrangement with manager-level or higher
authorization. For example, from time to time the advisor may receive requests
for proposals (RFPs) from consultants or potential clients that request
information about a fund's holdings on an accelerated basis. As long as such
requests are on a one-time basis, and do not result in continued receipt of
data, such information may be provided in the RFP as of the most recent month
end regardless of lag time. Such information will be provided with a
confidentiality legend and only in cases where the advisor has reason to believe
that the data will be used only for legitimate purposes and not for trading.

In addition, the advisor occasionally may work with a transition manager to move
a large account into or out of a fund. To reduce the impact to the fund, such
transactions may be conducted on an in-kind basis using shares of portfolio
securities rather than cash. The advisor may provide accelerated holdings
disclosure to the transition manager with little or no lag time to facilitate
such transactions, but only if the transition manager enters into an appropriate
non-disclosure agreement.

SERVICE PROVIDERS

Various service providers to the funds and the funds' advisor must have access
to some or all of the funds' portfolio holdings information on an accelerated
basis from time to time in the ordinary course of providing services to the
funds. These service providers include the funds' custodian (daily, with no
lag), auditors (as needed) and brokers involved in the execution of fund trades
(as needed). Additional information about these service providers and their
relationships with the funds and the advisor are provided elsewhere in this
statement of additional information.

Additional Safeguards

The advisor's policies and procedures include a number of safeguards designed to
control disclosure of portfolio holdings and characteristics so that such
disclosure is consistent with the best interests of fund shareholders. First,
the frequency with which this information is disclosed to the public, and the
length of time between the date of the information and the date on which the
information is disclosed, are selected to minimize the possibility of a third
party improperly benefiting from fund investment decisions to the detriment of
fund shareholders. Second, distribution of portfolio holdings information,
including compliance with the advisor's policies and the resolution of any
potential conflicts that may arise, is monitored quarterly. Finally, the funds'
Board of Directors exercises oversight of disclosure of the funds' portfolio
securities. The board has received and reviewed a summary of the advisor's
policy and is informed on a quarterly basis of any changes to or violations of
such policy detected during the prior quarter.

Neither the advisor nor the funds receive any compensation from any party for
the distribution of portfolio holdings information.

The advisor reserves the right to change its policies and procedures with
respect to the distribution of portfolio holdings information at any time. There
is no guarantee that these policies and procedures will protect the funds from
the potential misuse of holdings information by individuals or firms in
possession of such information.

THE FUNDS' PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS

Because they are new, the funds do not yet have any shareholders to disclose.

SERVICE PROVIDERS

The funds have no employees. To conduct the funds' day-to-day activities, the
funds have hired a number of service providers. Each service provider has a
specific function to fill on behalf of the funds that is described below.

ACIM, ACS and ACIS are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by ACC. James E.
Stowers, Jr., controls ACC by virtue of his ownership of a majority of its
voting stock.

INVESTMENT ADVISOR

American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) serves as the investment
advisor for each of the funds. A description of the responsibilities of the
advisor appears in each prospectus under the heading MANAGEMENT.

For services provided to each fund, the advisor receives a unified management
fee based on a percentage of the net assets of each fund. For more information
about the unified management fee, see THE INVESTMENT ADVISOR under the heading
MANAGEMENT in each fund's prospectus. The amount of the fee is calculated daily
and paid monthly in arrears. For each fund with a stepped fee schedule, the rate
of the fee is determined by applying the formula indicated in the table below.
This formula takes into account all of the advisor's assets under management in
the fund's investment strategy ("strategy assets"). Strategy assets include
assets of the fund and certain assets of other clients of the advisor outside
the American Century fund family that use very similar investment teams and
strategies. The funds in this statement of additional information do not have
the same investment strategy and their assets are therefore not combined for
puposes of calculating strategy assets. The use of strategy assets, rather than
fund assets, in calculating the fee rate for a particular fund could allow the
fund to realize scheduled cost savings more quickly. However, the funds'
strategy assets currently do not include assets of other client accounts. In
addition, if such assets are acquired in the future, they may not be sufficient
to result in a lower fee rate. The management fee schedules for the funds appear
below.

On each calendar day, each class of each fund accrues a management fee that is
equal to the class's management fee rate (as calculated pursuant to the above
schedules) times the net assets of the class divided by 365 (366 in leap years).
On the first business day of each month, the funds pay a management fee to the
advisor for the previous month. The management fee is the sum of the daily fee
calculations for each day of the previous month.

The management agreement between the corporation and the advisor shall continue
in effect until the earlier of the expiration of two years from the date of its
execution or until the first


------

meeting of fund shareholders following such execution and for as long thereafter
as its continuance is specifically approved at least annually by

(1)  the funds' Board of Directors, or a majority of outstanding
     shareholder votes (as defined in the Investment Company Act) and

(2)  the vote of a majority of the directors of the funds who are not
     parties to the agreement or interested persons of the advisor, cast in
     person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.

The management agreement states that the funds' Board of Directors or a majority
of outstanding shareholder votes may terminate the management agreement at any
time without payment of any penalty on 60 days' written notice to the advisor.
The management agreement shall be automatically terminated if it is assigned.

The management agreement states the advisor shall not be liable to the funds or
their shareholders for anything other than willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross
negligence or reckless disregard of its obligations and duties.

The management agreement also provides that the advisor and its officers,
directors and employees may engage in other business, render services to others,
and devote time and attention to any other business whether of a similar or
dissimilar nature.

Certain investments may be appropriate for the funds and also for other clients
advised by the advisor. Investment decisions for the funds and other clients are
made with a view to achieving their respective investment objectives after
consideration of such factors as their current holdings, availability of cash
for investment and the size of their investment generally. A particular security
may be bought or sold for only one client or fund, or in different amounts and
at different times for more than one but less than all clients or funds. A
particular security may be bought for one client or fund on the same day it is
sold for another client or fund, and a client or fund may hold a short position
in a particular security at the same time another client or fund holds a long
position. In addition, purchases or sales of the same security may be made for
two or more clients or funds on the same date. The advisor has adopted
procedures designed to ensure such transactions will be allocated among clients
and funds in a manner believed by the advisor to be equitable to each. In some
cases this procedure could have an adverse effect on the price or amount of the
securities purchased or sold by a fund.

The advisor may aggregate purchase and sale orders of the funds with purchase
and sale orders of its other clients when the advisor believes that such
aggregation provides the best execution for the funds. The Board of Directors
has approved the policy of the advisor with respect to the aggregation of
portfolio transactions. Where portfolio transactions have been aggregated, the
funds participate at the average share price for all transactions in that
security on a given day and allocate transaction costs on a pro rata basis. The
advisor will not aggregate portfolio transactions of the funds unless it
believes such aggregation is consistent with its duty to seek best execution on
behalf of the funds and the terms of the management agreement. The advisor
receives no additional compensation or remuneration as a result of such
aggregation.

Because the funds had not commenced operations as of the fiscal year end, no
fees had been paid to the advisor.

PORTFOLIO MANAGERS

Other Accounts Managed

The portfolio managers also may be responsible for the day-to-day management of

Potential Conflicts of Interest

Certain conflicts of interest may arise in connection with the management of
multiple portfolios. Potential conflicts include, for example, conflicts among
investment strategies and conflicts in the allocation of investment
opportunities. American Century has adopted policies and procedures that are
designed to minimize the effects of these conflicts. Responsibility for managing
American Century client portfolios is organized according to investment
discipline. Investment disciplines include, for example, core equity, small- and
mid-cap growth, large-cap growth, value, international, fixed income, asset
allocation, and sector funds. Within each discipline are one or more portfolio
teams responsible for managing specific client portfolios. Generally, client
portfolios with similar strategies are managed by the same team using the same
objective, approach, and philosophy. Accordingly, portfolio holdings, position
sizes, and industry and sector exposures tend to be similar across similar
portfolios, which minimizes the potential for conflicts of interest.


------
39


For each investment strategy, one portfolio is generally designated as the
"policy portfolio." Other portfolios with similar investment objectives,
guidelines and restrictions, if any, are referred to as "tracking portfolios."
When managing policy and tracking portfolios, a portfolio team typically
purchases and sells securities across all portfolios that the team manages.
American Century's trading systems include various order entry programs that
assist in the management of multiple portfolios, such as the ability to purchase
or sell the same relative amount of one security across several funds. In some
cases a tracking portfolio may have additional restrictions or limitations that
cause it to be managed separately from the policy portfolio. Portfolio managers
make purchase and sale decisions for such portfolios alongside the policy
portfolio to the extent the overlap is appropriate, and separately, if the
overlap is not.

American Century may aggregate orders to purchase or sell the same security for
multiple portfolios when it believes such aggregation is consistent with its
duty to seek best execution on behalf of its clients. Orders of certain client
portfolios may, by investment restriction or otherwise, be determined not
available for aggregation. American Century has adopted policies and procedures
to minimize the risk that a client portfolio could be systematically advantaged
or disadvantaged in connection with the aggregation of orders. To the extent
equity trades are aggregated, shares purchased or sold are generally allocated
to the participating portfolios PRO RATA based on order size. Because initial
public offerings (IPOs) are usually available in limited supply and in amounts
too small to permit across-the-board pro rata allocations, American Century has
adopted special procedures designed to promote a fair and equitable allocation
of IPO securities among clients over time. Fixed income securities transactions
are not executed through a centralized trading desk. Instead, portfolio teams
are responsible for executing trades with broker/dealers in a predominantly
dealer marketplace. Trade allocation decisions are made by the portfolio manager
at the time of trade execution and orders entered on the fixed income order
management system.

Finally, investment of American Century's corporate assets in proprietary
accounts may raise additional conflicts of interest. To mitigate these potential
conflicts of interest, American Century has adopted policies and procedures
intended to provide that trading in proprietary accounts is performed in a
manner that does not give improper advantage to American Century to the
detriment of client portfolios.

Compensation

American Century portfolio manager compensation is structured to align the
interests of portfolio managers with those of the shareholders whose assets they
manage. It includes the components described below, each of which is determined
with reference to a number of factors such as overall performance, market
competition, and internal equity. Compensation is not directly tied to the value
of assets held in client portfolios.

BASE SALARY

Portfolio managers receive base pay in the form of a fixed annual salary.

BONUS

A significant portion of portfolio manager compensation takes the form of an
annual incentive bonus tied to performance. Bonus payments are determined by a
combination of factors. One factor is fund investment performance. For policy
portfolios, such as the funds described in this statement of additional
information, investment performance is measured by a combination of one- and
three-year pre-tax performance relative to a pre-established,
internally-customized peer group and/or market benchmark. Custom peer groups are
constructed using all the funds in appropriate Lipper or Morningstar categories
as a starting point. Funds are then eliminated from the peer group based on a
standardized methodology designed to result in a final peer group that more
closely represents the fund's true peers based on internal investment mandates
and that is more stable (i.e., has less peer turnover) over the long-term. In
cases where a portfolio manager has responsibility for more than one policy
portfolio, the performance of each is assigned a percentage weight commensurate
with the portfolio manager's level of responsibility.


------
40


With regard to tracking portfolios, investment performance may be measured in a
number of ways. The performance of the tracking portfolio may be measured
against a customized peer group and/or market benchmark as described above for
policy portfolios. Alternatively, the tracking portfolio may be evaluated
relative to the performance of its policy portfolio, with the goal of matching
the policy portfolio's performance as closely as possible. In some cases, the
performance of a tracking portfolio is not separately considered; rather, the
performance of the policy portfolio is the key metric.

A second factor in the bonus calculation relates to the performance of all
American Century funds managed according to a particular investment style, such
as U.S. growth or value. Performance is measured for each product individually
as described above and then combined to create an overall composite for the
product group. These composites may measure one-year performance (equal
weighted) or a combination of one- and three-year performance (asset weighted)
depending on the portfolio manager's responsibilities and products managed. This
feature is designed to encourage effective teamwork among portfolio management
teams in achieving long-term investment success for similarly styled portfolios.

A portion of some portfolio managers' bonuses may be tied to individual
performance goals, such as research projects and the development of new
products.

Finally, portfolio manager bonuses may occasionally be affected by
extraordinarily positive or negative financial performance by American Century
Companies, Inc. (ACC), the advisor's privately-held parent company. This feature
has been designed to maintain investment performance as the primary component of
portfolio manager bonuses while also providing a link to the advisor's ability
to pay.

RESTRICTED STOCK PLANS

Portfolio managers are eligible for grants of restricted stock of ACC. These
grants are discretionary, and eligibility and availability can vary from year to
year. The size of an individual's grant is determined by individual and product
performance as well as other product-specific considerations. Grants can
appreciate/depreciate in value based on the performance of the ACC stock during
the restriction period (generally three years).

DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS

Portfolio managers are eligible for grants of deferred compensation. These
grants are used in very limited situations, primarily for retention purposes.
Grants are fixed and can appreciate/depreciate in value based on the performance
of the American Century Growth Funds in which the portfolio manager chooses to
invest them.

Ownership of Securities

Because the funds are new, they do not yet have shareholders.

TRANSFER AGENT AND ADMINISTRATOR

American Century Services, LLC, 4500 Main Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64111,
serves as transfer agent and dividend-paying agent for the funds. It provides
physical facilities, computer hardware and software and personnel for the
day-to-day administration of the funds and the advisor. The advisor pays ACS's
costs for serving as transfer agent and dividend-paying agent for the funds out
of the advisor's unified management fee. For a description of this fee and the
terms of its payment, see the above discussion under the caption INVESTMENT
ADVISOR on page 35.

From time to time, special services may be offered to shareholders who maintain
higher share balances in our family of funds. These services may include the
waiver of minimum investment requirements, expedited confirmation of shareholder
transactions, newsletters and a team of personal representatives. Any expenses
associated with these special services will be paid by the advisor.

DISTRIBUTOR

The funds' shares are distributed by American Century Investment Services, Inc.,
a registered broker-dealer. The distributor is a wholly owned subsidiary of ACC
and its principal business address is 4500 Main Street, Kansas City, Missouri
64111.

The distributor is the principal underwriter of the funds' shares. The
distributor makes a continuous, best-efforts underwriting of the funds' shares.
This means the distributor has no liability for unsold shares. The advisor pays
ACIS's costs for serving as principal underwriter of the funds' shares out of
the advisor's unified management fee. For a description of this fee and the
terms of its payment, see the above discussion under the caption INVESTMENT
ADVISOR on page 35. ACIS does not earn commissions for distributing the funds'
shares.

Certain financial intermediaries unaffiliated with the distributor or the funds
may perform various administrative and shareholder services for their clients
who are invested in the funds. These services may include assisting with fund
purchases, redemptions and exchanges, distributing information about the funds
and their performance, preparing and distributing client account statements, and
other administrative and shareholder services that would otherwise be provided
by the distributor or its affiliates. The distributor may pay fees out of its
own resources to such financial intermediaries for providing these services.

CUSTODIAN BANKS

JP Morgan Chase Bank, 4 Metro Tech Center, Brooklyn, New York 11245, and
Commerce Bank, N.A., 1000 Walnut, Kansas City, Missouri 64105, each serves as
custodian of the funds' assets. The custodians take no part in determining the
investment policies of the funds or in deciding which securities are purchased
or sold by the funds. The funds, however, may invest in certain obligations of
the custodians and may purchase or sell certain securities from or to the
custodians.

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Deloitte & Touche LLP is the independent registered public accounting firm of
the funds. The address of Deloitte & Touche LLP is 1100 Walnut Street, Kansas
City, Missouri 64106. As the independent registered public accounting firm of
the funds, Deloitte & Touche LLP and its affiliates provide services including

(1)  auditing the annual financial statements for each fund,

(2)  assisting and consulting in connection with SEC filings and

(3)  reviewing the annual federal income tax return filed for each fund.

BROKERAGE ALLOCATION

Under the management agreement between the funds and the advisor, the advisor
has the responsibility of selecting brokers and dealers to execute portfolio
transactions. The funds' policy is to secure the most favorable prices and
execution of orders on its portfolio transactions. So long as that policy is
met, the advisor may take into consideration the factors discussed below when
selecting brokers.

The advisor receives statistical and other information and services, including
research, without cost from brokers and dealers. The advisor evaluates such
information and services, together with all other information that it may have,
in supervising and managing the investments of the funds. Because such
information and services may vary in amount, quality and reliability, their
influence in selecting brokers varies from none to very substantial. The advisor
intends to continue to place some of the funds' brokerage business with one or
more brokers who provide information and services. Such information and services
will be in addition to and not in lieu of services required to be performed by
the advisor. The advisor does not utilize brokers that provide such information
and services for the purpose of reducing the expense of providing required
services to the funds. Because they are new, the funds do not yet have any
brokerage commissions to disclose.


------
42


The brokerage commissions paid by the funds may exceed those that another broker
might have charged for effecting the same transactions, because of the value of
the brokerage and research services provided by the broker. Research services
furnished by brokers through whom the funds effect securities transactions may
be used by the advisor in servicing all of its accounts, and not all such
services may be used by the advisor in managing the portfolios of the funds.

The staff of the SEC has expressed the view that the best price and execution of
over-the-counter transactions in portfolio securities may be secured by dealing
directly with principal market makers, thereby avoiding the payment of
compensation to another broker. In certain situations, the officers of the funds
and the advisor believe that the facilities, expert personnel and technological
systems of a broker often enable the funds to secure as good a net price by
dealing with a broker instead of a principal market maker, even after payment of
the compensation to the broker. The funds regularly place their over-the-counter
transactions with principal market makers, but also may deal on a brokerage
basis when utilizing electronic trading networks or as circumstances warrant.

REGULAR BROKER-DEALERS

The funds did not own any security of their regular brokers or dealers at the
time of their inception.

INFORMATION ABOUT FUND SHARES

Each of the funds named on the front of this statement of additional information
is a series of shares issued by the corporation, and shares of each fund have
equal voting rights. In addition, each series (or fund) may be divided into
separate classes. See MULTIPLE CLASS STRUCTURE, which follows. Additional funds
and classes may be added without a shareholder vote.

Each fund votes separately on matters affecting that fund exclusively. Voting
rights are not cumulative, so investors holding more than 50% of the
corporation's (all funds') outstanding shares may be able to elect a Board of
Directors. The corporation undertakes dollar-based voting, meaning that the
number of votes a shareholder is entitled to is based upon the dollar amount of
the shareholder's investment. The election of directors is determined by the
votes received from all the corporation's shareholders without regard to whether
a majority of shares of any one fund voted in favor of a particular nominee or
all nominees as a group.

The assets belonging to each series are held separately by the custodian and the
shares of each series represent a beneficial interest in the principal, earnings
and profit (or losses) of investments and other assets held for each series.
Your rights as a shareholder are the same for all series of securities unless
otherwise stated. Within their respective series, all shares have equal
redemption rights. Each share, when issued, is fully paid and non-assessable.

Each shareholder has rights to dividends and distributions declared by the fund
he or she owns and to the net assets of such fund upon its liquidation or
dissolution proportionate to his or her share ownership interest in the fund.

MULTIPLE CLASS STRUCTURE

The corporation's Board of Directors has adopted a multiple class plan (the
Multiclass Plan) pursuant to Rule 18f-3 adopted by the SEC. The plan is
described in the funds' prospectus. Pursuant to such plan, the funds may issue
four classes of shares: Investor Class, Institutional Class, R Class and Advisor
Class.

The Investor Class of most funds is made available to investors directly without
any load or commission, for a single unified management fee. It is also
available through some financial intermediaries. The Institutional and Advisor
Classes are made available to institutional shareholders or through financial
intermediaries that do not require the same level of shareholder and
administrative services from the advisor as Investor Class shareholders. As a
result, the advisor is able to charge these classes a lower total management
fee. In addition to the management fee, however, the Advisor Class shares are
subject to a Master Distribution and Shareholder Services Plan (the Advisor
Class Plan). The R Class is made available


------
43


through financial intermediaries and is generally used in 401(k) and other
retirement plans. The unified management fee for the R Class is the same as for
Investor Class, but the R Class shares are subject to a separate Master
Distribution and Individual Shareholder Services Plan (the R Class Plan and,
collectively with the Advisor Class Plan, the plans) described below. The plans
have been adopted by the funds' Board of Directors in accordance with Rule 12b-1
adopted by the SEC under the Investment Company Act.

Rule 12b-1

Rule 12b-1 permits an investment company to pay expenses associated with the
distribution of its shares in accordance with a plan adopted by its Board of
Directors and approved by its shareholders. Pursuant to such rule, the Board of
Directors and initial shareholder of the funds' R and Advisor Classes have
approved and entered into the R Class Plan and Advisor Class Plan, respectively.
The plans are described below.

In adopting the plans, the Board of Directors (including a majority of directors
who are not interested persons of the funds [as defined in the Investment
Company Act], hereafter referred to as the independent directors) determined
that there was a reasonable likelihood that the plans would benefit the funds
and the shareholders of the affected class. Some of the anticipated benefits
include improved name recognition for the funds generally; and growing assets in
existing funds, which helps retain and attract investment management talent,
provides a better environment for improving fund performance, and can lower the
total expense ratio for funds with stepped-fee schedules. Pursuant to Rule
12b-1, information with respect to revenues and expenses under the plans is
presented to the Board of Directors quarterly for its consideration in
connection with its deliberations as to the continuance of the plans.
Continuance of the plans must be approved by the Board of Directors (including a
majority of the independent directors) annually. The plans may be amended by a
vote of the Board of Directors (including a majority of the independent
directors), except that the plans may not be amended to materially increase the
amount to be spent for distribution without majority approval of the
shareholders of the affected class. The plans terminate automatically in the
event of an assignment and may be terminated upon a vote of a majority of the
independent directors or by vote of a majority of outstanding shareholder votes
of the affected class.

All fees paid under the plans will be made in accordance with Section 26 of the
Conduct Rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD).

R Class Plan

As described in the prospectus, the R Class shares of the funds are made
available to participants in employer-sponsored retirement or savings plans and
to persons purchasing through broker-dealers, banks, insurance companies and
other financial intermediaries that provide various administrative, shareholder
and distribution services. The funds' distributor enters into contracts with
various banks, broker-dealers, insurance companies and other financial
intermediaries, with respect to the sale of the funds' shares and/or the use of
the funds' shares in various investment products or in connection with various
financial services.

Certain recordkeeping and administrative services that are provided by the
funds' transfer agent for the Investor Class shareholders may be performed by a
plan sponsor (or its agents) or by a financial intermediary for R Class
investors. In addition to such services, the financial intermediaries provide
various individual shareholder and distribution services.

To enable the funds' shares to be made available through such plans and
financial intermediaries, and to compensate them for such services, the funds'
Board of Directors has adopted the R Class Plan. Pursuant to the R Class Plan,
the R Class pays the funds' distributor 0.50% annually of the average daily net
asset value of the R Class shares. The distributor may use these fees to pay for
certain ongoing shareholder and administrative services (as described below) and
for distribution services, including past distribution services (as described
below). This payment is fixed at 0.50% and is not based on expenses incurred by
the distributor. Because they are new, the funds have not yet paid any fees
under the R Class Plan.

The distributor then makes these payments to the financial intermediaries
(including underwriters and broker-dealers, who may use some of the proceeds to
compensate sales personnel)


------
44


who offer the R Class shares for the services, as described below. No portion of
these payments is used by the distributor to pay for advertising, printing costs
or interest expenses.

Payments may be made for a variety of individual shareholder services,
including, but not limited to:

(a)  providing individualized and customized investment advisory services,
     including the consideration of shareholder profiles and specific goals;

(b)  creating investment models and asset allocation models for use by
     shareholders in selecting appropriate funds;

(c)  conducting proprietary research about investment choices and the
     market in general;

(d)  periodic rebalancing of shareholder accounts to ensure compliance with
     the selected asset allocation;

(e)  consolidating shareholder accounts in one place; and

(f)  other individual services.

Individual shareholder services do not include those activities and expenses
that are primarily intended to result in the sale of additional shares of the
funds.

Distribution services include any activity undertaken or expense incurred that
is primarily intended to result in the sale of R Class shares, which services
may include but are not limited to:

(a)  the payment of sales commissions, on-going commissions and other
     payments to brokers, dealers, financial institutions or others who sell R
     Class shares pursuant to selling agreements;

(b)  compensation to registered representatives or other employees of the
     distributor who engage in or support distribution of the funds' R Class
     shares;

(c)  compensation to, and expenses (including overhead and telephone
     expenses) of, the distributor;

(d)  printing prospectuses, statements of additional information and
     reports for other-than-existing shareholders;

(e)  preparing, printing and distributing sales literature and advertising
     materials provided to the funds' shareholders and prospective shareholders;

(f)  receiving and answering correspondence from prospective shareholders,
     including distributing prospectuses, statements of additional information,
     and shareholder reports;

(g)  providing facilities to answer questions from prospective shareholders
     about fund shares;

(h)  complying with federal and state securities laws pertaining to the
     sale of fund shares;

(i)  assisting shareholders in completing application forms and selecting
     dividend and other account options;

(j)  providing other reasonable assistance in connection with the
     distribution of fund shares;

(k)  organizing and conducting of sales seminars and payments in the form
     of transactional and compensation or promotional incentives;

(l)  profit on the foregoing;

(m)  paying service fees for providing personal, continuing services to
     investors, as contemplated by the Conduct Rules of the NASD; and

(n)  such other distribution and services activities as the advisor
     determines may be paid for by the funds pursuant to the terms of the
     agreement between the corporation and the funds' distributor and in
     accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act.

Advisor Class Plan

As described in the prospectuses, the funds' Advisor Class shares are made
available to participants in employer-sponsored retirement or savings plans and
to persons purchasing through broker-dealers, banks, insurance companies, and
other financial intermediaries that provide various administrative, shareholder
and distribution services. The funds' distributor enters into contracts with
various banks, broker-dealers, insurance companies and other financial
intermediaries, with respect to the sale of the funds' shares and/or the use of
the funds' shares in various investment products or in connection with various
financial services.

Certain recordkeeping and administrative services that are provided by the
funds' transfer agent for the Investor Class shareholders may be performed by a
plan sponsor (or its agents) or by a financial intermediary for Advisor Class
investors. In addition to such services, the financial intermediaries provide
various distribution services.

To enable the funds' shares to be made available through such plans and
financial intermediaries, and to compensate them for such services, the funds'
advisor has reduced its management fee by 0.25% per annum with respect to the
Advisor Class shares, and the funds' Board of Directors has adopted the Advisor
Class Plan. Pursuant to the Advisor Class Plan, the Advisor Class pays the
funds' distributor 0.50% annually of the aggregate average daily assets of the
funds' Advisor Class shares, 0.25% of which is paid for certain ongoing
shareholder and administrative services (as described below) and 0.25% of which
is paid for distribution services, including past distribution services (as
described below). This payment is fixed at 0.50% and is not based on expenses
incurred by the distributor. Because they are new, the funds have not yet paid
any fees under the Advisor Class Plan.

The distributor then makes these payments to the financial intermediaries
(including underwriters and broker-dealers, who may use some of the proceeds to
compensate sales personnel) who offer the Advisor Class shares for the services,
as described below. No portion of these payments is used by the distributor to
pay for advertising, printing costs or interest expenses.

Payments may be made for a variety of shareholder services, including, but not
limited to:

(a)  receiving, aggregating and processing purchase, exchange and
     redemption requests from beneficial owners (including contract owners of
     insurance products that utilize the funds as underlying investment media)
     of shares and placing purchase, exchange and redemption orders with the
     funds' distributor;

(b)  providing shareholders with a service that invests the assets of their
     accounts in shares pursuant to specific or pre-authorized instructions;

(c)  processing dividend payments from a fund on behalf of shareholders and
     assisting shareholders in changing dividend options, account designations
     and addresses;

(d)  providing and maintaining elective services such as check writing and
     wire transfer services;

(e)  acting as shareholder of record and nominee for beneficial owners;

(f)  maintaining account records for shareholders and/or other beneficial
     owners;

(g)  issuing confirmations of transactions;

(h)  providing subaccounting with respect to shares beneficially owned by
     customers of third parties or providing the information to a fund as
     necessary for such subaccounting;

(i)  preparing and forwarding investor communications from the funds (such
     as proxies, shareholder reports, annual and semi-annual financial
     statements and dividend, distribution and tax notices) to shareholders
     and/or other beneficial owners; and

(j)  providing other similar administrative and sub-transfer agency
     services.

Shareholder services do not include those activities and expenses that are
primarily intended to result in the sale of additional shares of the funds.
Because they are new, the funds have not yet paid any fees under the Advisor
Class Plan for shareholder services.


------
46


Distribution services include any activity undertaken or expense incurred that
is primarily intended to result in the sale of Advisor Class shares, which
services may include but are not limited to:

BUYING AND SELLING FUND SHARES

Information about buying, selling, exchanging and, if applicable, converting
fund shares is contained in the funds' prospectuses. The prospectuses are
available to investors without charge and may be obtained by calling us.

VALUATION OF A FUND'S SECURITIES

All classes of the funds are offered at their net asset value, as described
below.

Each fund's net asset value per share (NAV) is calculated as of the close of
business of the New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange) each day the Exchange is
open for business. The Exchange usually closes at 4 p.m. Eastern time. The
Exchange typically observes the following holidays: New Year's Day, Martin
Luther King Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence
Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. Although the funds expect
the same holidays to be observed in the future, the Exchange may modify its
holiday schedule at any time.

Each fund's NAV is calculated by adding the value of all portfolio securities
and other assets, deducting liabilities and dividing the result by the number of
shares outstanding. Expenses and interest earned on portfolio securities are
accrued daily.

The portfolio securities of each fund that are listed or traded on a domestic
securities exchange are valued at the last sale price on that exchange, except
as otherwise noted. Portfolio securities


------
47


primarily traded on foreign securities exchanges generally are valued at the
preceding closing values of such securities on the exchange where primarily
traded. If no sale is reported, or if local convention or regulation so
provides, the mean of the latest bid and asked prices is used. Depending on
local convention or regulation, securities traded over-the-counter are priced at
the mean of the latest bid and asked prices, the last sale price, or the
official closing price. When market quotations are not readily available,
securities and other assets are valued at fair value as determined in accordance
with procedures adopted by the Board of Directors.

Debt securities not traded on a principal securities exchange are valued through
valuations obtained from a commercial pricing service or at the most recent mean
of the bid and asked prices provided by investment dealers in accordance with
procedures established by the Board of Directors.

Because there are hundreds of thousands of municipal issues outstanding, and the
majority of them do not trade daily, the prices provided by pricing services for
these types of securities are generally determined without regard to bid or last
sale prices. In valuing securities, the pricing services generally take into
account institutional trading activity, trading in similar groups of securities,
and any developments related to specific securities. The methods used by the
pricing service and the valuations so established are reviewed by the advisor
under the general supervision of the Board of Directors. There are a number of
pricing services available, and the advisor, on the basis of ongoing evaluation
of these services, may use other pricing services or discontinue the use of any
pricing service in whole or in part.

Securities maturing within 60 days of the valuation date may be valued at cost,
plus or minus any amortized discount or premium, unless the directors determine
that this would not result in fair valuation of a given security. Other assets
and securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued in good
faith at their fair value using methods approved by the Board of Directors.

The value of an exchange-traded foreign security is determined in its national
currency as of the close of trading on the foreign exchange on which it is
traded or as of the close of business on the New York Stock Exchange, if that is
earlier. That value is then translated to dollars at the prevailing foreign
exchange rate.

Trading in securities on European and Far Eastern securities exchanges and
over-the-counter markets is normally completed at various times before the close
of business on each day that the New York Stock Exchange is open. If an event
were to occur after the value of a security was established, but before the net
asset value per share was determined, that was likely to materially change the
net asset value, then that security would be valued at fair value as determined
in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Directors.

Trading of these securities in foreign markets may not take place on every day
that the Exchange is open. In addition, trading may take place in various
foreign markets and on some electronic trading networks on Saturdays or on other
days when the Exchange is not open and on which the funds' net asset values are
not calculated. Therefore, such calculations do not take place contemporaneously
with the determination of the prices of many of the portfolio securities used in
such calculation, and the value of the funds' portfolios may be affected on days
when shares of the funds may not be purchased or redeemed.

TAXES

FEDERAL INCOME TAX

Each fund intends to qualify annually as a regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). By so
qualifying, a fund should be exempt from federal income taxes to the extent that
it distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net realized
capital gains (if any) to investors. If a fund fails to qualify as a regulated
investment company, it will be liable for taxes, significantly reducing its
distributions to investors and eliminating investors' ability to treat
distributions received from the funds in the same manner in which they were
realized by the funds.


------
48


If fund shares are purchased through taxable accounts, distributions of net
investment income and net short-term capital gains are taxable to you as
ordinary income, unless they are designated as qualified dividend income and you
meet a minimum required holding period with respect to your shares of a fund, in
which case such distributions are taxed as long-term capital gains. Qualified
dividend income is a dividend received by a fund from the stock of a domestic or
qualifying foreign corporation, provided that the fund has held the stock for a
required holding period. The required holding period for qualified dividend
income is met if the underlying shares are held more than 60 days in the 121-day
period beginning 60 days prior to the ex-dividend date. Dividends received by
the funds on shares of stock of domestic corporations may qualify for the 70%
dividends-received deduction to the extent that the fund held those shares for
more than 45 days.

Distributions from gains on assets held by the funds longer than 12 months are
taxable as long-term gains regardless of the length of time you have held your
shares in the fund. If you purchase shares in the fund and sell them at a loss
within six months, your loss on the sale of those shares will be treated as a
long-term capital loss to the extent of any long-term capital gains dividend you
received on those shares.

Dividends and interest received by a fund on foreign securities may give rise to
withholding and other taxes imposed by foreign countries. However, tax
conventions between certain countries and the United States may reduce or
eliminate such taxes. Foreign countries generally do not impose taxes on capital
gains with respect to investments by non-resident investors. Any foreign taxes
paid by a fund will reduce its dividend distributions to investors.

If more than 50% of the value of a fund's total assets at the end of its fiscal
year consists of securities of foreign corporations, the fund may qualify for
and make an election with the Internal Revenue Service with respect to such
fiscal year so that fund shareholders may be able to claim a foreign tax credit
in lieu of a deduction for foreign income taxes paid by the fund. If such an
election is made, the foreign taxes paid by the fund will be treated as income
received by you. In order for you to utilize the foreign tax credit, you must
have held your shares for 16 days or more during the 31-day period, beginning 15
days prior to the ex-dividend date for the mutual fund shares. The mutual fund
must meet a similar holding period requirement with respect to foreign
securities to which a dividend is attributable. Any portion of the foreign tax
credit that is ineligible as a result of the fund not meeting the holding period
requirement will be deducted in computing net investment income.

If a fund purchases the securities of certain foreign investment funds or trusts
called passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), capital gains on the sale of
such holdings will be deemed ordinary income regardless of how long the fund
holds the investment. The fund also may be subject to corporate income tax and
an interest charge on certain dividends and capital gains earned from these
investments, regardless of whether such income and gains are distributed to
shareholders. In the alternative, the fund may elect to recognize cumulative
gains on such investments as of the last day of its fiscal year and distribute
them to shareholders. Any distribution attributable to a PFIC is characterized
as ordinary income.

Because they are new, the funds do not have any capital loss carryovers to
disclose.

If you have not complied with certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code
and Regulations, either American Century or your financial intermediary is
required by federal law to withhold and remit to the IRS the applicable federal
withholding rate of reportable payments (which may include dividends, capital
gains distributions and redemption proceeds). Those regulations require you to
certify that the Social Security number or tax identification number you provide
is correct and that you are not subject to withholding for previous
under-reporting to the IRS. You will be asked to make the appropriate
certification on your account application. Payments reported by us to the IRS
that omit your Social Security number or tax identification number will subject
us to a non-refundable penalty of $50, which will be charged against your
account if you fail to provide the certification by the time the report is
filed.

A redemption of shares of a fund (including a redemption made in an exchange
transaction) will be a taxable transaction for federal income tax purposes and
you generally will recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference
between the basis of the shares and the amount received. If a loss is realized
on the redemption of fund shares, the reinvestment in additional fund shares
within 30 days before or after the redemption may be subject to the "wash sale"
rules of the Code, resulting in a postponement of the recognition of such loss
for federal income tax purposes.


------
49


STATE AND LOCAL TAXES

Distributions by the funds also may be subject to state and local taxes, even if
all or a substantial part of such distributions are derived from interest on
U.S. government obligations which, if you received such interest directly, would
be exempt from state income tax. However, most but not all states allow this tax
exemption to pass through to fund shareholders when a fund pays distributions to
its shareholders. You should consult your tax advisor about the tax status of
such distributions in your state.

The information above is only a summary of some of the tax considerations
affecting the funds and their shareholders. No attempt has been made to discuss
individual tax consequences. A prospective investor should consult with his or
her tax advisors or state or local tax authorities to determine whether the
funds are suitable investments.

STATEMENT OF NET ASSETS

The Statement of Net Assets at May 24, 2006, as described in the Report of
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm has been audited by Deloitte &
Touche LLP.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholder,

American Century Growth Funds, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of Legacy Large Cap
Fund, (the "Fund"), one of the funds comprising American Century Growth Funds,
Inc., as of May 24, 2006. This financial statement is the responsibility of the
Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial
statement based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statement is free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have,
nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial
reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statement, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of cash owned as of May 24,
2006, by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above presents fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Legacy Large Cap Fund as of May
24, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.

           Legacy Multi Cap Fund                             Investor

     Each class of each such series shall consist, until further changed, of the
     lesser of (x) 3,000,000,000 shares or (y) the number of shares that could
     be issued by issuing all of the shares of any series currently or hereafter
     classified less the total number of shares then issued and outstanding in
     all of such series. The Board of Directors shall have the power and
     authority (i) to divide or classify (and reclassify) any unissued shares of
     common stock into such classes and/or series as the Board of Directors may
     from time to time determine, (ii) to fix the number of shares of stock in
     each such class or series, (iii) to increase or decrease the aggregate
     number of shares of stock of the corporation or the number of shares of
     stock of any such series or class, and (iv) to set or change the
     preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions,
     limitations as to dividends, qualifications, or terms or conditions of
     redemption thereof that are not stated in these Articles of Incorporation.

          2. The following is a description of the preferences, conversion and
     other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends,
     qualifications and terms or conditions of redemption and conversion of the
     shares of common stock classified as a Series and any additional series of
     common stock of the corporation (unless provided otherwise by the Board of
     Directors with respect to any such additional series at the time it is
     established and designated):

               (a) VOTING. Holders of shares of stock of the corporation shall
          be entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value per share
          for each share of stock held on the applicable record date,
          irrespective of the class or series; provided, however, that (1)
          matters affecting only one class or series shall be voted upon only by
          that class or series, and (2) where required by the Investment Company
          Act of 1940 or the regulations adopted thereunder or any other
          applicable law, certain matters shall be voted on separately by each
          class or series of shares affected and not be all classes unless
          otherwise required by law.

               (b) ASSETS BELONGING TO A CLASS OR SERIES. All payments received
          by the corporation for the sale of stock of each class or series and
          the investment and reinvestment thereof and the income, earnings and
          profits thereon shall belong to the class or series of shares with
          respect to which such payments were received, and are herein referred
          to as "assets belonging to" such class or series. Any assets which are


                                       2


          not readily identifiable as belonging to any particular class or
          series shall be allocated to any one or more of any class or series in
          such manner as the Board of Directors in its sole discretion deems
          fair and equitable.

               (c) LIABILITIES OF A CLASS OR SERIES. The assets belonging to
          each class or series shall be charged with the liabilities of the
          corporation in respect of that class or series, and are herein
          referred to as "liabilities belonging to" such class or series. Any
          liability of the corporation that is not readily identifiable as a
          liability belonging to any particular class or series shall be
          allocated to and among any one or more of any class or series in such
          manner as the Board of Directors in its sole discretion deems fair and
          equitable.

               (d) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. The holders of the outstanding
          shares of each class or series of capital stock of the corporation
          shall be entitled to receive dividends from ordinary income and
          distributions from capital gains of the assets belonging to such class
          or series in such amounts, if any, and payable in such manner, as the
          Board of Directors may from time to time determine. To the extent
          permitted by law, such dividends and distributions may be declared and
          paid by means of a formula or other method determined at meetings held
          less frequently than the declaration and payment of such dividends and
          distributions.

               (e) LIQUIDATION. To the extent permitted by law, the corporation
          may dissolve itself or any class or series thereof by action of the
          Board of Directors without action by any stockholders. In the event of
          the liquidation or dissolution of the corporation or of any class or
          series thereof, stockholders of each class or series shall be entitled
          to receive the assets belonging to such class or series to be
          distributed among them in proportion to the number of shares of such
          class or series held by them. In the event that there are any general
          assets available for distribution that have not been allocated by the
          Board of Directors to any particular class or series of capital stock,
          such assets will be distributed to the holders of stock of all classes
          and series of capital stock in proportion to the asset values of the
          respective classes and series of capital stock.

               (f) REDEMPTION BY SHAREHOLDERS. Each holder of any class or
          series of common stock of the corporation, upon proper documentation
          and the payment of all taxes in connection therewith, may require the
          corporation to redeem or repurchase such stock at the net asset value
          thereof, less a redemption fee, sales charge, or charge or discount,
          if any, determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion.
          Payment shall be made in cash or in kind as determined by the
          corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the corporation may
          postpone payment of the redemption price and may suspend the right of
          holders of shares of any class or series to require the corporation to
          redeem shares of that class or series during any period or at any time
          when and to the extent permissible under the Investment Company Act of
          1940.

                                       3


               (g) REDEMPTION BY CORPORATION. The corporation may cause the
          shares of any class or series owned by any shareholder to be redeemed
          in cash or in kind under such terms and conditions as from time to
          time are fixed by the Board of Directors for such class or series.

               (h) CONVERSION OR EXCHANGE RIGHTS. Each holder of any class or
          series of common stock of the corporation may, upon proper
          documentation and the payment of all taxes in connection therewith,
          convert the shares represented thereby into shares of common stock of
          any other class or series of the corporation on the basis of their
          relative net asset values, less a conversion charge or discount, if
          any, as determined by the Board of Directors, provided, however, that
          the Board of Directors may abolish, limit or suspend such right of
          conversion.


          3. Unless otherwise prohibited by law, so long as the corporation is
     registered as an open-end management investment company under the
     Investment Company Act of 1940, the Board of Directors shall have the power
     and authority, without the approval of the holders of any outstanding
     shares, to increase or decrease the number of shares of capital stock of
     any class or series that the corporation has the authority to issue.

          4. The Board of Directors shall have the authority, without the
     approval of shareholders of any series unless otherwise required by
     applicable law, to combine the assets and liabilities held with respect to
     any two or more series into assets and liabilities held with respect to a
     single series.

          5. The corporation may issue and sell fractions of shares of capital
     stock having pro rata all the rights of full shares, including, without
     limitation, the right to vote and to receive dividends, and wherever the
     words "share" or "shares" are used in the charter or Bylaws of the
     corporation, they shall be deemed to include fractions of shares, where the
     context does not clearly indicate that only full shares are intended.

          6. The corporation shall not be obligated to issue certificates
     representing shares of any class or series of capital stock. At the time of
     issue or transfer of shares without certificates, the corporation shall
     provide the shareholder with such information as may be required under the
     Maryland General Corporation Law.

     FIFTH: The name and mailing address of the incorporator is Otis H. Cowan,
4500 Main Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64111.

     SIXTH: The number of directors of the corporation shall not be more than
eleven, which number may be changed in accordance with the Bylaws of the
corporation but shall never be less than seven. The names of the directors who
shall act until the first annual meeting of stockholders and until their
successors are elected and qualify are:

     SEVENTH: The following provisions are hereby adopted for the purpose of
defining, limiting and regulating the powers of the corporation, its directors
and stockholders:

          1. The Board of Directors has exclusive authority to make, amend, and
     repeal the Bylaws of the corporation.

          2. No holder of shares of stock of any class or series shall be
     entitled as a matter of right to subscribe for or purchase or receive any
     part of any new or additional issue of shares of stock of any class or
     series or of securities convertible into shares of stock of any class or
     series, whether now or hereafter authorized or whether issued for money,
     for a consideration other than money, or by way of dividend.

          3. Unless a provision of law requires a greater proportion than a
     majority of the votes of all classes or series or of any class or series of
     stock entitled to be cast to take or authorize any action, the corporation
     may take or authorize such action with the approval of a majority of the
     aggregate number of the votes entitled to be cast thereon.

          4. The corporation reserves the right from time to time to make any
     amendments of its charter which may now or hereafter be authorized by law,
     including any amendment which alters the contract rights, as expressly set
     forth in its charter, of any of its outstanding stock by classification,
     reclassification or otherwise.

          5. The corporation is not required to hold an annual meeting in any
     year in which the election of directors is not required to be acted upon
     under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

          6. Unless a greater number therefore shall be specified in the Bylaws
     of the corporation, the presence at any stockholders meeting, in person or
     by proxy, of stockholders entitled to cast one-third of the votes thereat
     shall be necessary and sufficient to constitute a quorum for the
     transaction of business at such meeting.

     EIGHTH: The powers of the incorporator are to terminate upon filing of the
articles of incorporation.

     NINTH: No director of this corporation shall be personally liable for
monetary damages to the corporation or any stockholder, except to the extent
that such exclusion from liability shall be limited pursuant to Section 5-418 of
the Courts and Judicial Proceedings Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland or
Section 17 of the Investment Company Act of 1940.


                                       5


     TENTH: The corporation shall indemnify to the full extent permitted by law
each person who has served at any time as director or officer of the
corporation, and his heirs, administrators, successors and assigns, against any
and all reasonable expenses, including counsel fees, amounts paid upon
judgments, and amounts paid in settlement (before or after suit is commenced)
actually incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of
any claim, action, suit or proceeding in which he is made a party, or which may
be asserted against him, by reason of being or having been a director or officer
of the corporation. Such indemnification shall be in addition to any other
rights to which such person may be entitled under any law, bylaw, agreement,
vote of stockholders, or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no officer or
director of the corporation shall be indemnified against any liability, whether
or not there is an adjudication of liability, arising by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of duties within
the meaning of Section 17 (and the interpretations thereunder) of the Investment
Company Act of 1940. Any determination to indemnify pursuant to this Article
Ninth shall be made by "reasonable and fair means" within the meaning of Section
17 and shall otherwise comply with the Investment Company Act and
interpretations thereunder.

     ELEVENTH: All of the provisions of these Articles of Incorporation are
subject to, and shall be effective only in compliance with, the Investment
Company Act of 1940, all other applicable laws of the United States, the
applicable laws of the several states and the applicable rules and regulations
of administrative agencies having jurisdiction, as such laws, rules and
regulations may from time to time be amended.


                                     * * * *

THIRD: The number of directors of the Corporation is nine. The names of the
directors are:

                        Thomas A. Brown
                        Andrea C. Hall, Ph.D.

                        Donald H. Pratt
                        Gale E. Sayers
                        James E. Stowers, Jr.
                        James E. Stowers III
                        M. Jeannine Strandjord

                       AMERICAN CENTURY GROWTH FUNDS, INC.

                                     BY-LAWS


                                     OFFICES

     Section 1. The registered office shall be in the City of Baltimore, State
of Maryland.

     Section 2. The Corporation may also have offices at such other places both
within and without the State of Maryland as the Board of Directors may from time
to time determine or the business of the Corporation may require.

                            MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

     Section 3. Meetings of the stockholders shall be held at the office of the
Corporation in Kansas City, Missouri or at any other place within the United
States as shall be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors and
stated in the notice of meeting.

     Section 4. The Corporation shall not be required to hold an annual meeting
of its stockholders in any year in which the election of Directors is not
required by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment
Company Act"), to be acted upon by the holders of any class or series of stock
of the Corporation. The use of the term "annual meeting," wherever found in
these By-laws, shall not be construed to imply a requirement that a stockholder
meeting be held annually. In the event that the Corporation shall be required by
the Investment Company Act to hold an annual meeting of stockholders to elect
Directors, such meeting shall be held at a date and time set by the Board of
Directors in accordance with the Investment Company Act (but in no event later
than 120 days after the occurrence of the event requiring the election of
Directors). Any annual meeting that is not required by the Investment Company
Act shall be held on a date and time during the month of July set by the Board
of Directors. At any annual meeting, the stockholders shall elect a Board of
Directors and may transact any business within the powers of the Corporation.
Any business of the Corporation may be transacted at an annual meeting without
being specially designated in the notice, except such business as is
specifically required by statute to be stated in the notice.

     Section 5. The presence at any stockholders meeting, in person or by proxy,
of stockholders entitled to cast one third of the votes entitled to vote thereat
shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, except as otherwise
provided by law, by the Articles of Incorporation, or by these By-laws. Where
the approval of any particular item of business to come before a meeting
requires the approval of one or more than one class or series of stock, voting
separately, the holders of one third of the votes of each of such classes or
series entitled to be voted must be present to constitute a quorum for the
transaction of such item of business. If, however, a quorum shall not be present
or




AMERICAN CENTURY GROWTH FUNDS, INC.                                     By-laws
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

represented at any meeting of the stockholders, a majority of the voting stock
represented in person or by proxy may adjourn the meeting from time to time,
without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be
present or represented. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be
present or represented, any business may be transacted which might have been
transacted at the meeting as originally notified. If the adjournment is for more
than 90 days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the
adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each
stockholder of record entitled to vote thereat.

     Section 6. When a quorum is present at any meeting, a majority of all the
votes cast is sufficient to approve any matter which properly comes before the
meeting, unless a different vote for such matter is specified by law, by the
Articles of Incorporation or by these By-laws, in which case such different
specified vote shall be required to approve such matter.

     Section 7. Special meetings of the stockholders may be called at any time
by the Board of Directors, or by the Chairman of the Board, the President, a
Vice President, the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary.

     Section 8. Special meetings of the stockholders shall be called by the
Secretary upon written request of stockholders entitled to cast at least 10
percent of all the votes entitled to be cast at such meeting. Such request shall
state the purpose or purposes of such meeting and the matters proposed to be
acted on thereat. After verification of the sufficiency of such request, the
Secretary shall then inform the requesting stockholders of the reasonably
estimated cost of preparing and mailing such notice of the meeting. Upon payment
to the Corporation of such costs the Secretary shall give notice stating the
purpose or purposes of the meeting to all stockholders entitled to notice of
such meeting; provided, however, unless requested by stockholders entitled to
cast a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting, no special
meeting need be called to consider any matter which is substantially the same as
a matter voted upon at any special meeting of the stockholders held during the
preceding 12 months.

     Section 9. Not less than ten nor more than 90 days before the date of every
stockholders' meeting, the Secretary shall give to each stockholder entitled to
vote at such meeting, and to each stockholder not entitled to vote who is
entitled by statute to notice, written or printed notice stating (i) the time
and place of the meeting and, (ii) the purpose or purposes for which the meeting
is called if the meeting is a special meeting, or if notice of the purpose of
the meeting is required by statute to be given. Such notice shall be given
either by mail or by presenting it to the stockholder personally or by leaving
it at his residence or usual place of business. If mailed, such notice shall be
deemed to be given when deposited in the United States mail addressed to the
stockholder at his address as it appears on the records of the Corporation, with
postage thereon prepaid.

     Section 10. Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders
shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice of the meeting.

     Section 11. At all meetings of stockholders, a stockholder may vote the
shares owned of record by him on the record date (determined in accordance with
Section 42 hereof) for each such stockholders' meeting either in person or by
written proxy signed by the stockholder or by his duly authorized
attorney-in-fact. No proxy shall be valid after 11 months from its date, unless
otherwise provided in the proxy. At all meetings of stockholders, unless the
voting is

conducted by inspectors, all questions relating to the qualifications of voters
and the validity of proxies and the acceptance or rejection of votes shall be
decided by the chairman of the meeting.

                                    DIRECTORS

     Section 12. The number of Directors of the Corporation shall be nine. By
vote of a majority of the entire Board of Directors, the number of Directors
fixed by the Articles of Incorporation or by these By-laws may be increased or
decreased from time to time to a number not exceeding 11 nor less than seven,
but the tenure of office of a Director shall not be affected by any decrease in
the number of Directors so made by the Board. Until the first annual meeting of
stockholders or until successors are duly elected and qualify, the Board shall
consist of the persons named as such in the Articles of Incorporation. At the
first annual meeting of stockholders and at each annual meeting thereafter, the
stockholders shall elect Directors to hold office until the next annual meeting
or until their successors are elected and qualify. A plurality of all the votes
cast at an annual meeting at which a quorum is present shall be required to
elect Directors of the Corporation. Each Director, upon his election, shall
qualify by accepting the Office of Director, and his attendance at, or his
written approval of the minutes of, any meeting of the newly-elected directors
shall constitute his acceptance of such office, or he may execute such
acceptance by a separate writing, which shall be placed in the minute book.
Directors need not be stockholders of the Corporation. Disinterested Directors
shall be required to retire from the Board of Directors when they reach the age
of seventy-two (72).

     Section 13. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by
its Board of Directors, which may exercise all the powers of the Corporation,
except such as are by law and by the Articles of Incorporation or by these
By-laws conferred upon or reserved to the stockholders.

                       MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     Section 14. Meetings of the Board of Directors, regular or special, may be
held at any place in or out of the State of Maryland as the Board may from time
to time determine.

     Section 15. The first meeting of each newly-elected Board of Directors
shall be held at such time and place as shall be fixed by the vote of the
stockholders at the annual meeting, and no notice of such meeting shall be
necessary to the newly-elected Directors in order legally to constitute the
meeting, provided a quorum shall be present. In the event of the failure of the
stockholders to fix the time or place of such first meeting of the newly-elected
Board of Directors, or if such meeting is not held at the time and place so
fixed by the stockholders, the meeting may be held at such time and place as
shall be specified in a notice given as hereinafter provided for special
meetings of the Board of Directors, or as shall be specified in a written waiver
signed by all of the Directors.

     Section 16. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held at such
time and place as shall from time to time be fixed by resolution adopted by the
full Board of Directors. Adoption of such resolution shall constitute notice of
all meetings held pursuant thereto.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Section 17. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called at any
time by the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee, if one be
constituted, by vote at a meeting, or by the Chairman of the Board, the
President or by a majority of the Directors or a majority of the members of the
Executive Committee in writing with or without a meeting. Special meetings may
be held at such place or places within or without Maryland as may be designated
from time to time by the Board of Directors; in the absence of such designation,
such meetings shall be held at such places as may be designated in the call.

     Section 18. Notice of the place and time of every special meeting of the
Board of Directors shall be served on each Director or sent to him by telegraph,
or by leaving the same at his residence or usual place of business at least
three days before the date of the meeting, or by mail at least seven days before
the date of the meeting. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be given when
deposited in the United States mail addressed to the Director at his address as
it appears on the records of the Corporation, with postage thereon prepaid.

     Section 19. At all meetings of the Board a majority of the entire Board of
Directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business and the
action of a majority of the Directors present at any meeting at which a quorum
is present shall be the action of the Board of Directors unless the concurrence
of a greater proportion is required for such action by law, the Articles of
Incorporation or these By-laws. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting
of Directors, the Directors present thereat may by a majority vote adjourn the
meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the
meeting, until a quorum shall be present.

     Section 20. Unless otherwise restricted by the Articles of Incorporation or
these By-laws, members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, or any
committee designated by the Board, may participate in a meeting of the Board or
committee by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment
by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other,
and participation in a meeting by that means shall constitute presence in person
at such meeting.

     Section 21. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of
the Board of Directors or any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting,
if a written consent to such action is signed by all members of the Board or of
such committee, as the case may be, and such written consent is filed with the
minutes of the proceedings of the Board or committee.

                             COMMITTEES OF DIRECTORS

     Section 22. The Board of Directors may appoint from among its members an
Executive Committee and other committees composed of two or more Directors, and
may delegate to such committees any of the powers of the Board of Directors
except the power to declare dividends or distributions on stock, recommend to
the stockholders any action which requires stockholder approval, amend the
By-laws, approve any merger or share exchange which does not require stockholder
approval or issue stock. However, if the Board of Directors, subject to the
terms and provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, has given general
authorization for the issuance of stock, a committee of the Board, in accordance
with a general formula or method specified by the Board of Directors by
resolution or by adoption of a stock option or other plan, may fix the


                                       4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

terms of stock subject to classification or reclassification and the terms on
which any stock may be issued. In the absence of an appropriate resolution of
the Board of Directors, each committee may adopt such rules and regulations
governing its duties, proceedings, quorum and manner of acting as it shall deem
proper and desirable, provided that the quorum shall not be less than two
Directors. In the absence of any member of such committee, the members thereof
present at any meeting, whether or not they constitute a quorum, may appoint a
member of the Board of Directors to act in the place of such absent member.

     Section 23. All committees of the Board of Directors shall keep minutes of
their proceedings and shall report the same to the Board of Directors at the
next Board of Directors meeting. Any action by any of such committees shall be
subject to the revision and alteration by the Board of Directors, provided that
no rights of the third persons shall be affected by any such revision or
alteration.

                                WAIVER OF NOTICE

     Section 24. Whenever any notice of the time, place or purpose of any
meeting of stockholders, Directors or committee is required to be given under
the provisions of a statute or under the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation or these By-laws, each person who is entitled to the notice waives
notices if (i) he, before or after the meeting, signs a waiver of notice which
is filed with the records of the meeting, or (ii) such person is present in
person at the meeting if the meeting in question is of the Board of Directors or
a committee or, if the meeting in question is of the stockholders, if such
person is present either in person or by proxy.

                                    OFFICERS

     Section 25. The officers of the Corporation shall be chosen by the Board of
Directors and shall include a President, a Vice President, a Secretary, a

a Chairman of the Board, a Vice Chairman of the Board, additional Vice
Presidents, one or more Assistant Vice Presidents, Assistant Secretaries and
Assistant Treasurers. If chosen, the Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Board
shall be selected from among the Directors but shall not be considered officers
of the Corporation. Officers of the Corporation shall be elected by the Board of
Directors at its first meeting after each annual meeting of stockholders. If no
annual meeting of stockholders shall be held in any year, such election of
officers may be held at any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors
as shall be determined by the Board of Directors.

     Section 26. Two or more offices, except those of President and Vice
President, may be held by the same person but no officer shall execute,
acknowledge or verify any instrument in more than one capacity, if such
instrument is required by law, the Articles of Incorporation or these By-laws to
be executed, acknowledged or verified by two or more officers.

     Section 27. The Board of Directors, at any meeting thereof, may appoint
such additional officers and agents as it shall deem necessary, who shall hold

shall be fixed by the Board of Directors.

     Section 29. The officers of the Corporation shall serve for one year and

removed by the Board of Directors whenever, in its judgment, the best interests
of the Corporation will be served thereby, but such removal shall be without
prejudice to the contractual rights, if any, of the person so removed. If the
office of any officer or officers becomes vacant for any reason, the vacancy may
be filled by the Board of Directors at any meeting thereof.

Chairman of the Board or if there be no Chairman of the Board, shall preside at
all meetings of the stockholders and Directors. He shall have such other or
further duties and authority as may be prescribed elsewhere in these By-laws or
from time to time by the Board of Directors. If a Chairman of the Board be
elected or appointed and designated as the chief executive officer of the
Corporation, as provided in Section 30, the President shall perform such duties
as may be specifically delegated to him by the Board of Directors or are
conferred by law exclusively upon him and in the absence, disability, or

Directors and all meetings of the stockholders and record all the proceedings of

when required. He shall give, or cause to be given, notice of all meetings of
the stockholders and special meetings of the Board of Directors, and shall
perform such other duties as may be prescribed by the Board of Directors or
President, under whose supervision he shall be. He shall keep in safe custody

transfer agent, or registrar who shall have signed any such certificate, or
whose facsimile signature has been placed thereon, shall cease to be such an
officer, transfer agent or registrar (because of death, resignation or
otherwise) before such certificate is issued, such certificate may be issued and

transfer agent, or registrar at the date of issue.

     Section 50. The Board of Directors, by resolution, may at any time
authorize the issuance without certificates of some or all of the shares of one

set forth in Sections 2-210(c) and 2-211 of the Maryland General Corporation Law

for transfer, cancellation or other disposition.


       INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND OTHER AGENTS

     Section 51. (a) The Corporation shall indemnify any individual
("Indemnitee") who is a present or former director, officer, employee, or agent
of the Corporation, or who, while a director, officer, employee, or agent of the
Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director,
officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another foreign or domestic
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, other enterprise or employee
benefit plan who, by reason of his position was, is, or is threatened to be made
a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (hereinafter
collectively referred to as a "Proceeding") against any judgments, penalties,
fines, amounts paid in settlement, and expenses (including attorneys' fees)
actually and reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with any
Proceeding, to the fullest extent that such indemnification may be lawful under
Maryland law. The Corporation shall pay any reasonable expenses so incurred by
such Indemnitee in defending a Proceeding in advance of the final disposition
thereof to the fullest extent that such advance payment may be lawful under
Maryland law. Subject to any applicable limitations and requirements set forth
in the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation and in these By-laws, any payment
of indemnification or advance of expenses shall be made in accordance with the
procedures set forth in Maryland law.

     (b) Anything in this Section 51 to the contrary notwithstanding, nothing in
this Section 51 shall protect or purport to protect any Indemnitee against any
liability to the Corporation or its stockholders, whether or not there has been
an adjudication of liability, to which he would otherwise be subject by reason
of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of
the duties involved in the conduct of his office ("Disabling Conduct").

AMERICAN CENTURY GROWTH FUNDS, INC.                                     By-laws
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     (c) Anything in this Section 51 to the contrary notwithstanding, no
indemnification shall be made by the Corporation to any Indemnitee unless:

               (i)  there is a final decision on the merits by a court or other
                    body before whom the Proceeding was brought that the
                    Indemnitee was not liable by reason of Disabling Conduct; or

               (ii) in the absence of such a decision, the Corporation's Board
                    of Directors, based upon a review of the facts, forms a
                    reasonable belief that the Indemnitee was not liable by
                    reason of Disabling Conduct, which reasonable belief may be
                    formed:

                    (A)  by the vote of a majority of a quorum of directors who
                         are neither "interested persons" of the Corporation as
                         defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company
                         Act, nor parties to the Proceeding; or

                    (B)  based on a written opinion of independent legal
                         counsel.

     (d) Anything in this Section 51 to the contrary notwithstanding, any
advance of expenses by the Corporation to any Indemnitee shall be made only upon
the undertaking by such Indemnitee to repay the advance unless it is ultimately
determined that such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification as above
provided, and only if one of the Corporation's Board of Directors:

               (i)  obtains assurances that the advance will be repaid by (A)
                    the Corporation receiving collateral from the Indemnitee for
                    his undertaking or (B) the Corporation obtaining insurance
                    against losses by reason of any lawful advances;; or

               (ii) has a reasonable belief that the Indemnitee has not engaged
                    in Disabling Conduct and will ultimately be found entitled
                    to indemnification, which reasonable belief may be formed:

                    (A)  by a majority of a quorum of directors who are neither
                         "interested persons" of the Corporation as defined in
                         Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act, nor
                         parties to the Proceeding; or

                    (B)  based upon a written opinion of an independent legal
                         counsel that in turn is based on counsel's review of
                         readily available facts (which review shall not require
                         a full trial-type inquiry).

     (e) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted
pursuant to, this Section 51 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights
to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be
entitled under any law, bylaw,


                                       11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as
to action in such person's official capacity and as to action in another
capacity while holding such office.

     (f) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted
pursuant to, this Section 51 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or
ratified, continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer,
employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and
administrators of such an Indemnitee.

     (g) For purposes of this Section 51, references to (i) the "Corporation"
shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent
corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a
consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would
have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees
or agents so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of
such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another trust, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall
stand in the same position under the provisions of this Section 51 with respect
to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect
to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued; (ii)
"fines" shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an
employee benefit plan; and (iii) "serving at the request of the Corporation"
shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves service by, such director,
officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its
participants or beneficiaries.

     (h) This Section 51 does not apply to any proceeding against any trustee,
investment manager or other fiduciary of an employee benefit plan in that
person's capacity as such, even though that person may also be an agent of this
Corporation as defined in Subsection (a) of this Section 51. Nothing contained
in this Section 51 shall limit any right to indemnification to which such a
director, investment manager or other fiduciary may be entitled by contract or
otherwise which shall be enforceable to the extent permitted by applicable law
other than this Section 51.

     Section 52. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Maryland law and
by Sections 17(h) and 17(i) of the Investment Company Act, or any successor
provisions thereto or interpretations thereunder, the Corporation may purchase
and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director,
officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation, or who is or was serving at the
request of the Corporation as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee,
or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust, other enterprise, or employee benefit plan, against any liability
asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity or arising out of
his position, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify
him against such liability pursuant to Section 2-418 of the Maryland General
Corporation Law.

                                   AMENDMENTS

     Section 53. The Board of Directors shall have the power, at any regular
meeting or at any special meeting if notice thereof be included in the notice of
such special meeting, to alter or repeal any or all By-laws of the Corporation
and to adopt new By-laws.

INC., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the "Investment Manager").

     WHEREAS, the Investment Manager is registered as an investment advisor with
the Securities and Exchange Commission;

     WHEREAS, the Company is registered as an open-end management investment
company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"),

     NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual promises and agreements
herein contained, the parties agree as follows:

1.   INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT SERVICES. The Investment Manager shall supervise the
     investments of each class of each series of shares of the Company
     contemplated as of the date hereof, and each class of each subsequent
     series of shares as the Company shall select the Investment Manager to
     manage. In such capacity, the Investment Manager shall either directly, or
     through the utilization of others as contemplated by Section 7 below,
     maintain a continuous investment program for each series, determine what
     securities shall be purchased or sold by each series, secure and evaluate
     such information as it deems proper and take whatever action is necessary
     or convenient to perform its functions, including the placing of purchase
     and sale orders. In performing its duties hereunder, the Investment Manager
     will manage the portfolio of all classes of shares of a particular series
     as a single portfolio.

2.   COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. All functions undertaken by the Investment Manager
     hereunder shall at all times conform to, and be in accordance with, any

                                             AMERICAN CENTURY GROWTH FUNDS, INC.


3.   BOARD SUPERVISION. All of the functions undertaken by the Investment
     Manager hereunder shall at all times be subject to the direction of the
     Board of Directors of the Company, its executive committee, or any
     committee or officers of the Company acting under the authority of the
     Board of Directors.

4.   PAYMENT OF EXPENSES. The Investment Manager will pay all of the expenses of
     each class of each series of the Company's shares that it shall manage
     other than interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, extraordinary expenses,
     the fees and expenses of those directors who are not "interested persons"
     as defined in the 1940 Act (hereinafter referred to as the "Independent
     Directors") (including counsel fees), and expenses incurred in connection
     with the provision of shareholder services and distribution services under
     a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Investment
     Manager will provide the Company with all physical facilities and personnel

     space, office furniture, fixtures and equipment, office supplies, computer
     hardware and software and salaried and hourly paid personnel. The
     Investment Manager may at its expense employ others to provide all or any
     part of such facilities and personnel.

5.   ACCOUNT FEES. The Company, by resolution of the Board of Directors,
     including a majority of the Independent Directors, may from time to time
     authorize the imposition of a fee as a direct charge against shareholder
     accounts of any class of one or more of the series, such fee to be retained
     by the Company or to be paid to the Investment Manager to defray expenses
     which would otherwise be paid by the Investment Manager in accordance with
     the provisions of paragraph 4 of this Agreement. At least sixty days prior
     written notice of the intent to impose such fee must be given to the
     shareholders of the affected class and series.

6.   MANAGEMENT FEES.

     (a)  In consideration of the services provided by the Investment Manager,
          each class of each series of shares of the Company managed by the
          Investment Manager shall pay to the Investment Manager a management
          fee that is calculated as described in this Section 6 using the fee
          schedules set forth on Schedule A.

     (b)  DEFINITIONS

          (1)  An "INVESTMENT TEAM" is the Portfolio Managers that the
               Investment Manager has designated to manage a given portfolio.

          (2)  An "INVESTMENT STRATEGY" is the processes and policies
               implemented by the Investment Manager for pursuing a particular
               investment objective managed by an Investment Team.

          (3)  A "PRIMARY STRATEGY PORTFOLIO" is each series of the Company, as
               well as any other series of any other registered investment
               company for which the Investment Manager serves as the investment
               manager and for which American Century Investment Services, Inc.
               serves as the distributor.


                                                                          Page 2


                                             AMERICAN CENTURY GROWTH FUNDS, INC.



          (4)  A "SECONDARY STRATEGY PORTFOLIO" of a series of the Company is
               another account managed by the Investment Manager that is managed
               by the same Investment Team but is not a Primary Strategy
               Portfolio.

          (5)  The "SECONDARY STRATEGY SHARE RATIO" of a series of the Company
               is calculated by dividing the net assets of the series by the sum
               of the Primary Strategy Portfolios that share a common Investment
               Strategy.

          (6)  The "SECONDARY STRATEGY ASSETS" of a series of the Company is the
               sum of the net assets of the series' Secondary Strategy
               Portfolios multiplied by the series' Secondary Strategy Share
               Ratio.

          (7)  The "INVESTMENT STRATEGY ASSETS" of a series of the Company is
               the sum of the net assets of the series and the series' Secondary
               Strategy Assets.

          (8)  The "PER ANNUM FEE DOLLAR AMOUNT" is the dollar amount resulting
               from applying the applicable Fee Schedule for a class of a series
               of the Company using the Investment Strategy Assets.

          (9)  The "PER ANNUM FEE RATE" for a class of a series of the Company
               is the percentage rate that results from dividing the Per Annum
               Fee Dollar Amount for the class of a series by the Investment
               Strategy Assets of the series.

     (c)  DAILY MANAGEMENT FEE CALCULATION. For each calendar day, each class of
          each series of shares set forth on Schedule A shall accrue a fee
          calculated by multiplying the Per Annum Fee Rate for that class times
          the net assets of the class on that day, and further dividing that
          product by 365 (366 in leap years).

     (d)  MONTHLY MANAGEMENT FEE PAYMENT. On the first business day of each
          month, each class of each series of shares set forth on Schedule A
          shall pay the management fee to the Investment Manager for the
          previous month. The fee for the previous month shall be the sum of the

          may enter into an Addendum to this Agreement setting forth the name of
          the series and/or class, the Fee Schedule for each and such other

     necessary or convenient in its sole discretion and may contract with such
     persons or entities to obtain information, investment advisory and
     management services, or such other services as the Investment Manager deems
     appropriate. Any fees, compensation or expenses to be paid to any such
     person or entity shall be paid by the Investment Manager, and no obligation
     to such person or entity shall be incurred on behalf of the Company. Any
     arrangement entered into pursuant to this paragraph shall, to the extent

     approval of the Board of Directors of the Company, including a majority of
     the Independent Directors, and the shareholders of the Company.

8.   CONTINUATION OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall continue in effect until
     July 31, 2006, unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided, and shall
     continue in effect from year to year thereafter only so long as such
     continuance is specifically approved at least annually by the Board of
     Directors of the Company (including a majority of those Directors who are
     not parties hereto or interested persons of any such party) cast in person
     at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on the approval of the terms
     of such renewal, or by the vote of a majority of the outstanding class of
     voting securities of each series. The annual approvals provided for herein
     shall be effective to continue this Agreement from year to year if given
     within a period beginning not more than ninety (90) days prior to July 31
     of each applicable year, notwithstanding the fact that more than three
     hundred sixty-five (365) days may have elapsed since the date on which such
     approval was last given.

9.   TERMINATION. This Agreement may be terminated by the Investment Manager at
     any time without penalty upon giving the Company 60 days' written notice,
     and may be terminated at any time without penalty by the Board of Directors

     event of assignment by the Investment Manager, the term "assignment" for
     this purpose having the meaning defined in Section 2(a)(4) of the 1940 Act.

11.  OTHER ACTIVITIES. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit or restrict the
     right of the Investment Manager, or the right of any of its officers,
     directors or employees (who may also be a director, officer or employee of
     the Company), to engage in any other business or to devote time and
     attention to the management or other aspects of any other business, whether
     of a similar or dissimilar nature, or to render services of any kind to any
     other corporation, firm, individual or association.

12.  STANDARD OF CARE. In the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross
     negligence, or reckless disregard of its obligations or duties hereunder on
     the part of the Investment Manager, it, as an inducement to it to enter
     into this Agreement, shall not be subject to liability to the Company or to
     any shareholder of the Company for any act or omission in the course of, or
     connected with, rendering services hereunder or for any losses that may be
     sustained in the purchase, holding or sale of any security.

13.  SEPARATE AGREEMENT. The parties hereto acknowledge that certain provisions
     of the 1940 Act, in effect, treat each series of shares of an investment
     company as a separate investment company. Accordingly, the parties hereto
     hereby acknowledge and agree that, to the extent deemed appropriate and
     consistent with the 1940 Act, this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute
     a separate agreement between the Investment Manager and each series of
     shares of the Company managed by the Investment Manager.

     use by the Company of the name "American Century" in the name of the
     Company and any series of shares thereof. Such consent and non-exclusive
     license may be revoked by ACPH in its discretion if ACPH, the Investment
     Manager, or a subsidiary or affiliate of either of them is not employed as
     the investment adviser of each series of shares of the Company. In the
     event of such revocation, the Company and each series of shares thereof
     using the name "American Century" shall cease using the name "American
     Century" unless otherwise consented to by ACPH or any successor to its
     interest in such name.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed
by their respective duly authorized officers as of the day and year first above
written.

                             DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT


     THIS DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT is made and entered into this 15th day of May,
2006, by and between AMERICAN CENTURY GROWTH FUNDS, INC. (the "Issuer"), a
Maryland corporation and AMERICAN CENTURY INVESTMENT SERVICES, INC.
("Distributor"), a Delaware corporation.


     WHEREAS, the common stock of the Issuer is currently divided into a number
of separate series of shares, or funds, each corresponding to a distinct
portfolio of securities, and many of which are also divided into multiple
classes of shares; and

     WHEREAS, Distributor is a registered as a broker-dealer with the Securities
and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is
a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.; and

     WHEREAS, American Century Investment Management, Inc. ("ACIM") is the
registered investment adviser to the Issuer; and

     WHEREAS, the Board of Director of the Funds (collectively, the "Board")
wish to engage the Distributor to act as the distributor of the Funds;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth herein,
the parties agree as follows:


SECTION 1. GENERAL RESPONSIBILITIES

Issuer hereby engages Distributor to act as exclusive distributor of the shares
of each class of its separate series, and any other series and classes as may be
designated from time to time hereafter (the "Funds"). The Funds subject to this
Distribution Agreement are identified on SCHEDULE A, as the same may be amended
from time to time. Sales of a Fund's shares shall be made only to investors
residing in those states in which such Fund is registered. After effectiveness
of each Fund's registration statement, Distributor will hold itself available to
receive, as agent for the Funds, and will receive, by mail, telex, telephone,
and/or such other method as may be agreed upon between Distributor and Issuer,
orders for the purchase of Fund shares, and will accept or reject such orders on
behalf of the Funds in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Fund's
prospectus. Distributor will be available to transmit such orders as are so
accepted to the Fund's transfer agent as promptly as possible for processing at
the shares' net asset value next determined in accordance with the prospectuses.

a.   OFFERING PRICE. All shares sold by Distributor under this Agreement shall
     be sold at the net asset value per share ("Net Asset Value") determined in
     the manner described in each Fund's prospectus, as it may be amended from
     time to time, next computed after the order is accepted by Distributor or
     its agents or affiliates. Each Fund shall determine and promptly furnish to
     Distributor a statement of the Net Asset Value of shares of said





     Fund's series at least once on each day on which the Fund is open for
     business, as described in its current prospectus.

b.   PROMOTION SUPPORT. Each Fund shall furnish to Distributor for use in
     connection with the sale of its shares such written information with
     respect to said Fund as Distributor may reasonably request. Each Fund
     represents and warrants that such information, when authenticated by the
     signature of one of its officers, shall be true and correct. Each Fund
     shall furnish to Distributor copies of its reports to its shareholders and
     such additional information regarding said Fund's financial condition as
     Distributor may reasonably request. Any and all representations, statements
     and solicitations respecting a Fund's shares made in advertisements, sales
     literature and in any other manner whatsoever shall be limited to and
     conform in all respects to the information provided hereunder.

c.   REGULATORY COMPLIANCE. Each Fund shall furnish to Distributor copies of its
     current form of prospectus, as filed with the SEC, in such quantity as
     Distributor may reasonably request from time to time, and authorizes
     Distributor to use the prospectus in connection with the sale of such
     Fund's shares. All such sales shall be initiated by offer of, and conducted
     in accordance with, such prospectus and all of the provisions of the
     Securities Act of 1933, the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act") and
     all the rules and regulations thereunder. Distributor shall furnish
     applicable federal and state regulatory authorities with any information or

                             DEALER/AGENCY AGREEMENT


Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We, American Century Investment Services, Inc. ("Distributor" or "we") are
the distributor of the shares of the American Century family of mutual funds
(collectively, the "Funds", and individually, a "Fund"). As such, we have the
right, as agent for the Funds, to arrange for the sale of shares of the Funds to
dealers or the public, or both. We invite you to make shares of the various
classes of the Funds available to your customer upon the following terms and
conditions:

     1. AVAILABILITY OF FUND SHARES. As Distributor of the Funds, we agree to
cause the Funds to sell to, redeem from and exchange for you shares of
beneficial interest ("Shares") of one or more classes of the Funds, subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Funds' then-current prospectus,
any limitations imposed by any of the Funds or the investment advisor of the
Funds. To the extent that a prospectus contains provisions that are inconsistent
with the terms of this Agreement, the terms of the prospectus shall control.

     2. PURCHASE AND SALE OF FUND SHARES. (a) The public offering price at which
you may offer the Shares is the net asset value thereof plus any sales charge
applicable to such Shares (the "Sales Charge"), as computed from time to time as
described in the then-current prospectus or statement of additional information
(collectively, the "Prospectus") of the applicable class of the relevant Fund.
You agree to make Shares of the Funds available to your customers subject to
minimum investment requirements applicable to each order, unless you register
your customer purchases in your name and omnibus account as nominee. You further
acknowledge and agree that tracking and application of any Sales Charge,
including any scheduled variation in, or elimination of, such Sales Charge, is
your responsibility and will be charged uniformly to all offerees in the class
specified in the Prospectus. You understand that all orders are subject to
acceptance or rejection by us or the Funds in the sole discretion of either.

     (b) Each transaction is always made subject to confirmation by us at the
offering price next computed after receipt of the order. Subject to Sections
2(d), 2(h) and 2(i) below, orders to purchase, redeem and exchange Fund Shares
("Orders") received by you prior to the price time for each Fund as set forth in
its prospectus (the "Price Time"), generally the close of regular trading (the
"Close of Trading") on the New York Stock Exchange (the "Exchange") on any given
business day (currently 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) (each a "Business Day") and
transmitted to the Funds' transfer agent prior to the Price Time on such
Business Day will be executed at the net asset value determined as of the
relevant Fund's Price Time on the Business Day you received such Order. Any
Orders transmitted to the transfer agent after a Fund's Price Time on a Business
Day will be executed at the net asset value determined as of that Fund's Price
Time on the next Business Day.

     (c) The day as of which an Order is executed pursuant to the provisions set
forth above is referred to as the "Trade Date."

     (d) Any Order by you for the purchase of shares of the Funds through us
shall be accepted at the time when it is received by us, the Funds' transfer
agent or any clearinghouse agency we may designate from time to time, unless
rejected by us or the Funds' transfer agent. We will not accept any Order from
you that is placed on a conditional basis or is subject to any delay or
contingency prior to execution.

     (e) Subject to Section 2(g) hereof, with respect to the Funds, the Shares
of which are indicated in that Fund's Prospectus as being sold with a Sales
Charge (the "Load Funds"), you will be allowed the concessions from the public
offering price provided in the Load Funds' Prospectus and/or periodic
instruction from us. If a Load Fund is sold but the front-end load is waived,
you will not receive any concession. With respect to the Funds, the Shares of
which are indicated in that Fund's Prospectus as being sold with a contingent
deferred sales charge or early withdrawal charge (the "CDSC Funds"), you will be
paid a concession as disclosed in the CDSC Fund's Prospectus and/or periodic
instructions from us. If a CDSC Fund is sold but the CDSC is waived, you will
not receive any concession. All dealer concessions are subject to change without
notice by us and will comply with any changes in regulatory requirements. You
agree that you will not combine customer orders to reach breakpoints in
concessions for any purpose whatsoever unless authorized by the Prospectus or by
us in writing.

     (f) Certain of the classes of certain Funds have adopted distribution plans
pursuant to which we, on behalf of each such Fund, will pay a distribution fee
and, for some classes, a service fee to dealers in accordance with the
provisions of such Funds' distribution plans. The service fee is paid in
accordance with Section 2(g) hereof as additional consideration for, depending
on the class, all individual shareholder services, including account maintenance
services, or administrative services provided by you to shareholders of the
applicable Fund. The distribution fee is paid to the broker of record as
consideration for the distribution services the broker of record provides to its
clients, including receiving and answering correspondence, assisting investors
in completing application forms and selecting dividend and other account
options, providing facilities to answer questions from clients about the Funds,
and other past and continuing services to clients. The provisions and terms of
these Funds' distribution plans are described in their respective Prospectuses,
and you hereby agree that we have made no representations to you with respect to
the distribution plans of such Funds in addition to, or



                                       2




conflicting with, the description set forth in their respective Prospectuses. No
dealer discount or concession is applicable to Shares representing reinvested
dividends and distributions. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by
uncashed dealer discount, concession, service fee or distribution fee checks.

     (g) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any dealer concessions,
service fees or other payments described herein shall be paid only to the broker
of record pursuant to our records, whether that broker is the executing or
clearing broker. Only one broker may be designated as the broker of record on
any account.

     (h) Any Order placed by you for the purchase of Shares of a Fund is subject
to the timely receipt by the Fund's transfer agent of all required documents in
good order. If such documents are not received within a reasonable time after
the Order is placed, the Order is subject to cancellation, in which case you
agree to be responsible for any loss resulting to the Fund or to us from such
cancellation.

     (i) Notwithstanding Section 2(b) above, if the Securities and Exchange
Commission adopts a rule, or Congress adopts a law, that changes the
requirements for intermediaries with regard to accepting Orders on behalf of the
Funds, the timing of transmitting Orders to the Funds, or otherwise affects the
way Orders are accepted, transmitted or priced, Section 2(b) shall be deemed to
be automatically amended to comply with such new rule or law.

     (j) You represent and warrant that you will consider all guidelines from
the National Association of Securities Dealers ("NASD") and the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") when determining whether a Fund is appropriate for
your client, and which class is most appropriate. You further represent and
warrant that you will recommend Shares only for those clients for whom the
investment is suitable according to any such guidelines current at the time of
the recommendation.

     3. REDEMPTIONS. If any Shares of any of the Load Funds sold to you under
the terms of this Agreement are redeemed by the Fund or repurchased for the
account of the Funds or are tendered to the Funds for redemption or repurchase
within seven (7) business days after the Trade Date of your original purchase
order therefor, you agree to pay forthwith to us the full amount of the
concession, if any, allowed to you on the original sale.

     4. QUALIFICATION AS A BROKER/DEALER OR A BANK. (a) You represent (i) that
you are registered as a broker and/or dealer under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, and are licensed and qualified as a broker and/or dealer or
otherwise authorized to offer and sell the Shares under the laws of each
jurisdiction in which the Shares will be offered and sold by you, or are a bank
as defined in Section 3(a)(6) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and in either case are duly authorized to engage in the activities to
be performed by you hereunder; (ii) your agents and employees are and will
remain duly registered and licensed to offer and sell


                                       3



Shares in those jurisdictions in which you do so; and (iii) if you are a
broker/dealer, you are a member in good standing of the ("NASD") and agree to
maintain such membership (or in the alternative, that you are a foreign dealer
not required to be an NASD member). You agree to abide by all applicable state
and federal laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC, the NASD, and any
other authorized regulatory agency that are binding upon underwriters and
dealers in the distribution of securities of open-end investment companies,
including, without limitation, Rule 2830 (formerly Article III, Section 26) of
the NASD Conduct Rules, all of which are incorporated herein as if set forth in
full, or you represent that you are exempt from compliance with such laws, rules
and regulations. You agree not to sell or offer for sale Shares in any state or
jurisdiction where they have not been qualified for sale or in which you are not
qualified as a broker, dealer or bank. You agree to notify us immediately if you
cease to be registered or licensed as a broker and/or dealer or fail to remain
as a member in good standing of the NASD, or if you cease to be a bank, as
defined above.

     (b) Should you provide brokerage clearing services to broker-dealers or
other financial intermediaries who wish to sell Shares to their clients
("Originating Firms"), you represent that you and each such Originating Firm are
parties to a clearing agreement which conforms in all respects to the
requirements of Rule 3230 of the NASD Conduct Rules or, as applicable, the rules
of a national securities exchange. In connection with your provision of such
brokerage clearing services, you acknowledge and agree that we have no
responsibility for determining whether Shares are suitable for clients of your
Originating Firms.

     5. COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND SALES MATERIALS. (a) "Sales Material," as used
herein, shall include, without limitation, promotional materials, sales
literature, advertisements, press releases, announcements, research reports,
market letters, performance reports or summaries, and other similar materials,
including sales materials intended for wholesale use (i.e., Investment
Professional Use Only) or retail use.

     (b) Neither you nor any person associated with you shall give any
information or make any representation concerning the Funds or the Shares except
those contained in the then-current prospectus or any Sales Materials furnished
by us or the Funds or approved by us or the Funds in writing in advance for use
in connection therewith (except that Sales Materials provided by us that are
designated as being for Investment Professional Use Only may not be disseminated
to the public). Any Sales Materials, if distributed, must be accompanied by or
preceded by the appropriate Fund's then-current form of prospectus. You agree
that any information given or representations made on the basis of any Sales
Materials shall be consistent with the related information and representations
contained in the applicable Fund prospectus.

     (c) You agree to use your best efforts in the proper instruction and
training of all sales personnel employed by you in order that the Shares will be
made available in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
the Prospectus, and all applicable laws, rules and regulations.


                                       4



     (d) We will arrange for the delivery of prospectuses and other related
materials to your clients to the extent such delivery is required by applicable
law. We will bear the cost of such delivery. In the purchase of Shares through
us, you are entitled to rely only on the information contained in the
prospectuses and statements of additional information.

     (e) You agree to provide us with continuous reasonable access to your
offices, representatives and sales personnel, at meetings, in person and via
telephone or the world wide web, and further agree to provide us with sales
reporting information in reasonable detail, including identification of the
offices and representatives responsible for each Order.

     (a) You acknowledge that you have received and reviewed information
regarding our abusive trading policy and redemption fee funds. You represent and
warrant that you have a policy designed to prevent abusive trading in the mutual
funds you offer, including market timing, and that you will provide us with a
copy of such policy upon our reasonable request.

     (b) You covenant and agree that should we identify abusive trading
practices in any of your accounts, you will cooperate with us in seeking to
eliminate such abusive trading activity. In addition, you agree to provide
detailed transaction activity upon our request.

     (c) If you agree to offer Redemption Fee Funds under this Agreement, you
agree to sign a Redemption Fee Payment Agreement with the Distributor, which
sets forth additional details with respect to Redemption Fee Fund availability
and payment obligations.

     (d) If you are unable to track and charge redemption fees as set forth in
Section 6 hereof, you agree to notify us of that fact prior to offering any
Redemption Fee Funds so that we can determine if you have systems appropriate to
deterring abusive trading. In no circumstances can you offer any funds with a
5-year redemption fee period unless you can track and charge the appropriate
redemption fees.

     7. PROCESSING OF TRANSACTIONS.

     (a) If transactions in Fund Shares are to be settled through the National
Securities Clearing Corporation's ("NSCC") Mutual Fund Settlement, Entry, and
Registration Verification (Fund/SERV) system, the following provisions shall
apply:

          (1) Each party to this Agreement represents that it or one of its
     affiliates has entered into the Standard Networking Agreement with the NSCC
     and it desires to participate in the programs offered by the NSCC Fund/SERV
     system which provide (i) an automated process whereby shareholder purchases
     and redemptions, exchanges and


                                       5



     transactions of mutual fund shares are executed through the Fund/SERV
     system, and (ii) a centralized and standardized communication system for
     the exchange of customer-level information and account activity through the
     Fund/SERV Networking system ("Networking").

          (2) For each Fund/SERV transaction, including transactions
     establishing accounts with us or our affiliate, you shall provide the Funds
     and us with all information necessary or appropriate to establish and
     maintain each Fund/SERV transaction (and any subsequent changes to such
     information), which you hereby certify is and shall remain true and
     correct. You shall maintain documents required by the Funds to effect
     Fund/SERV transactions. Each instruction shall be deemed to be accompanied
     by a representation by you that it has received proper authorization from
     each person whose purchase, redemption, account transfer or exchange
     transaction is effected as a result of such instruction.

          (3) At all times each party shall maintain insurance coverage that is
     reasonable and customary in light of all its responsibilities hereunder and
     under applicable law. Such coverage shall insure for losses resulting from
     the criminal acts, errors or omissions of each party's employees and
     agents.

          (4) The parties agree to participate in Networking with each other
     under the terms of the Standard Networking Agreement, except that (i) the
     section relating to governing law is hereby amended by deleting the second
     sentence of such section, and (ii) the section relating to arbitration of
     disputes is hereby deleted and shall be of no force and effect among the
     parties.

          (5) You represent and warrant that all instructions, questions and
     other correspondence concerning the accounts for which trades are made in
     accordance with this SECTION 7(A) shall come from you, and that individual
     account holders shall contact you, rather than contact us or the Funds
     directly, with instructions, questions and requests concerning the Funds.
     You further represent and warrant that you, rather than us or the Funds,
     has reporting responsibility to your clients for confirmations of
     transactions and monthly, quarterly and year-end statements. You are a
     member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation and are current
     with the dues required by such membership.

     (b) If transactions in Fund Shares are to be settled directly with the
Funds' transfer agent, the procedures relating to the processing and settlement
of Orders shall be subject to such instructions as we may forward to you from
time to time. Payment for purchase transactions shall be made by wire transfer
or through a clearinghouse agency approved by us to the applicable Fund
custodial account designated by us on the Business Day next following the Trade
Date. Any such wire transfers shall be instituted by your bank prior to 4:00
p.m. Eastern time and received by the Funds prior to 6:00 p.m. Eastern time on
the Business Day next


                                       7



following the Trade Date. If payment for Fund Shares purchased is not timely
received, the Fund may cancel the Order or, at our option, resell the shares to
the applicable Fund at the then prevailing net asset value and you shall be
responsible for all costs to us, the Funds or any affiliate of the Funds
resulting from such resale. You shall be responsible for any loss, expense,
liability or damage, including loss of profit suffered by us and/or the
respective Funds resulting from delay or failure to make timely payment for such
shares or cancellation of any trade, or for any Orders that are processed on an
"as of" basis as an accommodation to you. You shall not be entitled to any gains
generated thereby.

     (c) You agree not to withhold placing Orders received from any customers
for the purchase or sale of Shares so as to profit itself as a result of such
withholding. You shall not purchase Shares through us except for the purpose of
covering purchase Orders received by you, or for your bona fide investment. You
agree to purchase Shares only from the Funds or your customers. If you purchase
Shares from your customers, you will pay such customers not less than the
applicable redemption price as established by the then-current prospectuses of
the Funds.

     8. ADDITIONAL COVENANTS.

     (a) Each party shall comply with all provisions of federal and state laws,
rules and regulations applicable to its respective activities under this
Agreement. All obligations of each party under this Agreement are subject to
compliance with applicable federal and state laws.

     (b) You covenant and agree that all Orders transmitted to us, whether by
telephone, telecopy, or other electronic transmission acceptable to us, shall be
sent by or under the authority and direction of a person designated by you as
being duly authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the Shares held in your
accounts. We shall be entitled to rely on the existence of such authority and to
assume that any person transmitting Orders for the purchase, redemption or
transfer of Fund shares on behalf of you is "an appropriate person" as used in
Sections 8-107 and 8-401 of the Uniform Commercial Code with respect to the
transmission of instructions regarding Fund shares on behalf of the owner of
such Fund shares. You shall maintain the confidentiality of all passwords and
security procedures issued, installed or otherwise put in place with respect to
the use of remote computer terminals and assume full responsibility for the
security therefor. You further agree to be responsible for the accuracy of all
data transmitted to us by you by telephone, telecopy or other electronic
transmission acceptable to us.

     (c) You covenant and agree that all Orders accepted and transmitted by you
hereunder on any Business Day will be based upon instructions that you received
from a client in proper form prior to the Price Time of the relevant Fund on
that Business Day. You shall time stamp all Orders or otherwise maintain records
that will enable the Company to demonstrate compliance with this SECTION 8(C)
hereof. Further, upon our reasonable request, you will provide evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Funds' Board of Directors to demonstrate your
compliance with Rule 22c-1 requirements and provide us with copies of your
internal control report, if one is


                                       7



obtained. You agree to promptly return any requested certification of such
practices, and understand that if you do not we may require you to stop trading
through the NSCC (if applicable) and send all trades directly to us by each
Fund's price time on any Business Day.

     9. RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES. You understand and agree that in performing
your services covered by this Agreement, you are acting on your own behalf and
as agent for your customers, and we are in no way responsible for the manner of
your performance or for any of your acts or omissions in connection therewith.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to constitute you or any of your
agents, employees or representatives as our agent, partner, or employee, or the
agent or employee of the Funds. As Distributor of the Funds, we shall have full
authority to take such action as we deem advisable in respect of all matters
pertaining to the distribution of the Shares. Our obligations under this
Agreement are subject to all the provisions of the distribution agreements
entered into between us and the Funds. We shall not be under any obligation to
you, except for obligations expressly assumed by us under this Agreement.

     10. INDEMNITY.

     (a) We agree to indemnify and hold harmless you and your officers,
directors, employees, agents, affiliates and each person, if any, who controls
you within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 (collectively, the
"Indemnified Parties" for purposes of this SECTION 10(A)) against any losses,
claims, expenses, damages or liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement
thereof) or litigation expenses (including legal and other expenses)
(collectively, "Losses"), to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject,
insofar as such Losses result from a breach by us of a material provision of
this Agreement. We will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with investigating or
defending any such Losses. We shall not be liable for indemnification hereunder
if such Losses are attributable to your negligence or misconduct in performing
your obligations under this Agreement.

     (b) You agree to indemnify and hold harmless us and the Funds, and our
respective officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates and each person,
if any, who controls us or the Funds within the meaning of the Securities Act of
1933 (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties" for purposes of this SECTION
10(B)) against any Losses to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject,
insofar as such Losses result from (i) a breach by you of a material provision
of this Agreement, or (ii) your sales practices and procedures, including the
provision of any information not provided or approved by us in accordance with
Section 5 hereof. You agree to reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with investigating or
defending any such Losses. You shall not be liable for indemnification hereunder
if such Losses are attributable to our negligence or misconduct in performing
our obligations under this Agreement.

     (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of
the commencement of action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect
thereof is to be made


                                       8



against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will
not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than under this SECTION 10. In case any such action is brought against
any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate
therein and, to the extent that it may wish to, assume the defense thereof, with
counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the
indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to assume the
defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified
party under this SECTION 10 for any legal or other expenses subsequently
incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other
than reasonable costs of investigation.

     (d) If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of any such action, the
indemnifying party shall not, without the prior written consent of the
indemnified parties in such action, settle or compromise the liability of the
indemnified parties in such action, or permit a default or consent to the entry
of any judgment in respect thereof, unless in connection with such settlement,
compromise or consent, each indemnified party receives from such claimant an
unconditional release from all liability in respect of such claim.

     11. AMENDMENT. This Agreement may be amended by mutual agreement of the
parties in writing.

     12. TERMINATION. Either of us may cancel this Agreement upon 30 days' prior
written notice to the other. This Agreement shall terminate automatically
without notice if (a) we cease to be a member of the NASD, (b) you cease to be a
member of the NASD, breach any provision of Section 2830 of the NASD Rules of
Fair Practices, or if you cease to be a bank, as defined above, or (c) upon any
attempted assignment hereof. This Agreement may be terminated at any time as to
any Fund by a vote by a majority of the independent directors or trustees of
that Fund. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion and without prior
notice, to suspend sales of Shares of the Funds in any state or other
jurisdiction, or to withdraw entirely the offering of Shares of the Funds, or to

                      FUTURES AND OPTIONS ACCOUNT AGREEMENT


GOLDMAN, SACHS & CO.
85 BROAD STREET
NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10004

ATTENTION:  FUTURES SERVICES DEPARTMENT

     The undersigned customer ("Customer") agrees that all transactions that
Goldman, Sachs & Co. or any of its affiliates (collectively, "Goldman", unless
otherwise specified) may execute, clear and/or carry on Customer's behalf for
the purchase or sale of futures contracts ("Futures Contracts") or options on
Futures Contracts ("Option Contracts"), and any customer accounts carried by
Goldman in connection therewith (each, an "Account"), shall be subject to the
terms and conditions set forth in this agreement (the "Agreement"). Futures
Contracts and Option Contracts are referred to collectively in this Agreement as
"Contracts".


1.   Applicable Law.


     Each Account and Contract shall be subject to (i) the Commodity Exchange
Act, as amended (the "CEA"), and all rules and interpretations of the Commodity
Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC") and the National Futures Association
("NFA"); (ii) the constitution, by-laws, rules, interpretations and customs of
any applicable exchange or clearing organization (each of which is referred to
as an "Exchange"); and (iii) any other laws or rules applicable to Customer's
trading of Contracts (collectively, "Applicable Law"). Neither Goldman nor any
of its partners, officers, employees or agents shall be liable as a result of
any action taken by Goldman, or any clearing brokers or floor brokers, to comply
with Applicable Law.

2.   General Agreements.

     Customer acknowledges and agrees that:

     (a) GOLDMAN'S RESPONSIBILITY. Goldman is responsible solely for the
execution, clearing and/or carrying of Contracts in each Account in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement. Customer and Customer's advisor ("Advisor"),
if any, are solely responsible for all investment and trading decisions for the
Account. Goldman is not acting as a fiduciary or advisor with respect to
Customer or any Contract or Account and Goldman shall have no responsibility for
compliance with any law or regulation governing the conduct of any such
fiduciary or advisor or for Customer's compliance with any law or regulation
governing or affecting Customer's trading hereunder.

     (b) ADVICE AND POSITIONS. Any advice provided by Goldman with respect to
any Account or Contract is incidental to its business as a futures commission
merchant ("FCM") and such advice shall not serve as the primary basis for any
decision by or on behalf of Customer in respect of any Contract or Account.
Goldman makes no representation as to the reliability, accuracy or completeness
of such advice or any information on which it is based. Goldman and its
partners, officers, employees and agents may take or hold positions in, or
advise other customers with respect to, Contracts that are the subject of advice
furnished by Goldman to Customer, and such positions or advice may be
inconsistent with any advice to Customer.

     (c) CONCLUSIVENESS OF REPORTS. All written and oral reports related to the
Accounts, including but not limited to confirmations, purchase and sale
statements and monthly statements, given to Customer shall be conclusive and
binding on Customer unless Customer notifies Goldman of any objection as
follows: (i) in the case of any oral communication, at the time such report is
given to Customer, and (ii) in the case of any written communication, before the
opening of trading on the business day following the day on which Customer
received such written communication.

     (d) RELIANCE ON INSTRUCTIONS. Goldman shall be entitled to rely on any
instruction, notice or communication that it reasonably believes to have
originated from Customer or Customer's duly authorized agent (including



                                      -9-


Customer's Advisor, if any) and Customer shall be bound thereby.

     (e) FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION. Customer shall provide to Goldman such
financial and other information regarding Customer as Goldman may from time to
time reasonably request. Customer shall notify Goldman promptly of any material
adverse changes to the financial condition of Customer, regardless of whether
Customer has previously furnished financial information to Goldman.

     (f) FLOOR BROKERS AND CLEARING BROKERS. Goldman, for and on behalf of
Customer, is authorized in its sole discretion to select floor brokers and, on
Exchanges where Goldman is not a clearing member, unaffiliated clearing brokers,
which will act as brokers and agents in connection with transactions in
Contracts for the Accounts.

     (g) GIVE-UPS. Absent a separate written agreement with Customer with
respect to give-ups, Goldman, in its sole discretion, may, but shall not be
obligated to, accept from other brokers Contracts executed by such brokers and
to be given up to Goldman for clearance or carrying in any Account.

     (h) LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. Goldman shall not be liable for any loss,
liability, expense, fine or tax caused directly or indirectly by any events
beyond Goldman's control, including without limitation any (i) governmental,
judicial, Exchange or other self-regulatory organization action or order, (ii)
suspension or termination of trading, (iii) breakdown or failure of transmission
or communication facilities, or (iv) failure or delay by any Exchange to enforce
its rules or to pay or return any amounts owed to Goldman with respect to any
Contracts executed and/or cleared for Customer's Accounts. In no event shall
Goldman be liable for consequential, incidental or special damages.

     (i) FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK. Customer acknowledges and agrees that, if
Customer enters into a transaction in any Contract that is denominated in a
currency (the "Contract Currency") other than the currency of Customer's
jurisdiction, any profit or loss on such Contract arising from changes in the
exchange rate between the Contract Currency and the currency of Customer's
jurisdiction shall be for Customer's Account and risk.

     (j) TRANSMISSION OF ORDERS. If Customer has been approved by Goldman for
the transmission of orders directly to affiliates of Goldman located outside the
United States (the "Affiliates"), for execution and clearance on non-U.S.
exchanges, Customer acknowledges and agrees that (i) it will transmit orders
directly to Affiliates identified by Goldman only in accordance with any
conditions or instructions furnished by Goldman and solely for Customer's own
Account, (ii) any orders transmitted by Customer to an Affiliate will be
executed and cleared through omnibus accounts maintained by the appropriate
Affiliate in the name of Goldman and not for an account of Customer with the
Affiliate, and (iii) notwithstanding its transmission of orders to the
Affiliates, Customer will continue to be a customer of Goldman and will not be a
customer of the Affiliate. For purposes of this Section 2(j), the term "Goldman"
shall mean Goldman, Sachs & Co.

3.   Margin and Other Obligations.

     (a) Customer agrees to deposit and to maintain initial and variation margin
and to make any premium payments with respect to each Contract, in such form and
in such amounts as may be required from time to time by Applicable Law or by
Goldman in its REASONABLE discretion. Customer acknowledges and agrees that
Goldman has no obligation to establish uniform margin, commission or fee
requirements and that margin requirements imposed by Goldman may exceed those of
the applicable Exchange. Customer further acknowledges and agrees that Goldman
shall have the right, in accordance with Applicable Law, to transfer VARIATION
MARGIN or pledge INITIAL margin deposited by Customer to any Exchange, or to
transfer or pledge other property to any Exchange in substitution for such
margin, in order to satisfy obligations incurred by Goldman on behalf of its
customers, and that any such transfer, pledge or substitution shall not diminish
Customer's obligations pursuant to Section 3(b) of this Agreement.

     (b) Customer also agrees to pay (i) all brokerage charges and commissions
relating to each Contract executed, cleared and/or carried by Goldman on
Customer's behalf or to any Account maintained by Customer with Goldman, in each
case in such manner and at such rates as may be agreed upon by Customer and
Goldman from time to time; (ii) all regulatory, Exchange and other
self-regulatory fees, fines, penalties and charges, and any taxes, incurred or
imposed with respect to each Contract or Account; (iii) the amount of any
trading loss, debit balance or deficiency in any Account; (iv) the amount of any
losses sustained by Goldman in connection with its execution and/or clearing of
Contracts for Customer's Accounts hereunder, provided that such losses are not
due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Goldman; and (v) interest on any
debit balances or deficiencies in any Account and on any monies advanced to
Customer at the rates charged from time to time to Goldman's securities margin
account customers.

     (c) Customer acknowledges and agrees that Goldman may (but shall not be
obligated to) accept from Customer margin deposits in the form of cash or
securities


                                      -10-



denominated in a currency other than the Contract Currency (the "Base
Currency"). In that event, Goldman shall determine Customer's margin
requirements in the Base Currency on any day in a commercially reasonable manner
based on current exchange rates between the Base Currency and the Contract
Currency. Furthermore, Customer shall pay Goldman's fees as in effect from time
to time for Goldman's deposit of margin in the Contract Currency with the
applicable Exchange.

     (d) Customer hereby grants to Goldman the right to pledge, hypothecate,
loan, invest or substitute any margin delivered to Goldman from time to time
without notice to Customer (i) in accordance with Section 3(a) of this
Agreement, and (ii) otherwise, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.

     (E) GOLDMAN, SACHS & CO. REPRESENTS THAT IT IS REGISTERED AS A FUTURES
COMMISSION MERCHANT ("FCM") UNDER THE CEA. FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SECTION 3(E),
THE TERM "GOLDMAN" SHALL MEAN GOLDMAN, SACHS & CO.

     (F) GOLDMAN AND CUSTOMER AGREE THAT (I) GOLDMAN SHALL HOLD INITIAL MARGIN
DEPOSITED BY CUSTOMER IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF SECTION 4D(2) OF
THE CEA AND THE RULES THEREUNDER OR, IF APPLICABLE, THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE
30.7 OF THE CFTC UNDER THE CEA; (II) GOLDMAN, AS APPROPRIATE TO CUSTOMER'S
TRANSACTIONS IN CONTRACTS AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CEA AND THE RULES AND
REGULATIONS THEREUNDER, MAY PLACE AND MAINTAIN INITIAL MARGIN DEPOSITED BY
CUSTOMER WITH ANOTHER FCM (PROVIDED THAT SUCH FCM IS NOT AN AFFILIATED PERSON
(AS DEFINED IN THE 1940 ACT) OF CUSTOMER OR AN AFFILIATED PERSON OF SUCH A
PERSON), A CLEARING ORGANIZATION AS DEFINED IN RULE 1.3(D) UNDER THE CEA
(INCLUDING A CLEARING ORGANIZATION FOR A FOREIGN BOARD OF TRADE), A BANK, AS
DEFINED IN SECTION 2(A)(5) OF THE 1940 ACT, A BANKING INSTITUTION OR TRUST
COMPANY THAT IS INCORPORATED OR ORGANIZED UNDER THE LAWS OF A COUNTRY OTHER THAN
THE UNITED STATES AND THAT IS REGULATED AS SUCH BY THE COUNTRY'S GOVERNMENT OR
AN AGENCY THEREOF OR A MEMBER OF A FOREIGN BOARD OF TRADE, AND SHALL OBTAIN AN
ACKNOWLEDGMENT, AS REQUIRED UNDER RULES 1.20(A) OR 30.7(C) UNDER THE CEA, AS
APPLICABLE, THAT SUCH MARGIN IS HELD ON BEHALF OF GOLDMAN'S CUSTOMERS IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE CEA; AND (III) GOLDMAN SHALL PROMPTLY
FURNISH COPIES OF OR EXTRACTS FROM ITS RECORDS OR SUCH OTHER INFORMATION
PERTAINING TO CUSTOMER'S ASSETS AS THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
THROUGH ITS EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS MAY REQUEST.

4.   Exercise and Delivery.

     (a) Customer agrees to give Goldman notice, not later than the time
specified by Goldman and in any event at least two days before the close of
trading in the Contract in question, if Customer intends to make or take
delivery under any Futures Contract or to exercise any Option Contract. Customer
shall furnish Goldman with sufficient funds to take delivery pursuant to, or to
exercise and provide initial margin for, any such Contract and/or deliver to
Goldman any property required to be delivered by Customer under any such
Contract at such time and in such manner as may be required by Goldman.

     (b) Certain Option Contracts sold by Customer are subject to exercise at
any time. Exercise notices received by Goldman from the applicable Exchange with
respect to any Option Contract sold by Goldman's customers will be allocated
among such customers (including Customer) pursuant to a random allocation
procedure and Customer shall be bound by any allocation made to it pursuant to
such procedure. Such notices may be allocated to Customer after the close of
trading on the day on which such notices have been allocated to Goldman by the
applicable Exchange. Goldman shall use reasonable efforts to contact Customer
promptly upon its allocation of an exercise notice to Customer.

     (c) Goldman shall have no responsibility for any action that it takes or
fails to take with respect to any Option Contracts (and, without limiting the
foregoing, shall have no responsibility to exercise any Option Contract
purchased by Customer) unless and until Goldman receives acceptable and timely
instructions from Customer indicating the action to be taken.

5.   Position Limits.

     Goldman shall have the right, whenever in its discretion it deems it
necessary, to limit the size and number of open Contracts (net or gross) that
Goldman will at any time execute, clear and/or carry for Customer, to require
Customer to reduce open positions carried with Goldman, and to refuse acceptance
of orders to establish new positions. Customer shall comply with all position
limit rules imposed by Applicable Law. Customer shall promptly notify Goldman if
Customer is required to file any position report with any regulatory or
self-regulatory authority and shall promptly file and provide Goldman with
copies of any such report.

6.   Lien.

     All funds, securities, credit balances, Contracts and other property of
Customer (owned either individually or jointly with others) that may from time
to time be held by, to the order of or on behalf of Goldman, and all amounts due
to Goldman for Customer's Account from any


                                      -11-


Exchange or clearing broker in respect of any Contracts, and all proceeds
thereof (collectively, "Collateral") are hereby pledged to Goldman and shall be
subject to a security interest and lien in Goldman's favor to secure all
obligations of Customer to Goldman pursuant to this Agreement.

7.   Customer Representations.

     (a) Customer represents and warrants as of the date hereof and on the date
of each transaction executed hereunder that:

     (i) LAWFUL AGREEMENT. Customer is duly authorized and empowered to execute
and deliver this Agreement and to effect purchases and sales of Contracts
through Goldman. Such transactions and this Agreement do not and will not
violate any Applicable Law, any judgment, order or agreement to which Customer
or its property is subject or by which it or its property is bound or any
documents or instruments governing the investment and trading activities of
Customer. This Agreement is a valid and binding agreement of Customer,
enforceable against Customer in accordance with its terms. Customer has made and
will make any disclosures regarding its trading of Contracts which are required
under Applicable Law.

     (ii) INTEREST IN OR CONTROL OF ACCOUNTS. No person or entity other than
Customer has, nor during the term of this Agreement will have, any ownership
interest of ten percent or more in any Account, and no person other than
Customer and Advisor, if any, has or will have any control over any Account,
except as otherwise disclosed to Goldman in writing.

     (iii) CEA REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS. Customer has reviewed the registration
requirements of the CEA and the NFA pertinent to commodity pool operators and
commodity trading advisors and has determined that it and any person that has
trading authority or control over any or all of its Accounts are in compliance
with such requirements.

     (iv) FINANCIAL INFORMATION. Any financial or other information provided to
Goldman by Customer in connection with this Agreement is and will be accurate
and complete in every material respect.

     (v) EMPLOYEES OF FCMS, SELF-REGULATORY ORGANIZATIONS OR THE CFTC. If
Customer is an individual, Customer is not a partner, officer, director,
employee or owner of more than ten percent of the equity interest of an FCM, an
introducing broker or any self-regulatory organization, or an employee of the
CFTC, except as otherwise disclosed to Goldman in writing.

     (vi) COMPLIANCE WITH THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE ACT. If Customer is an
insured depository institution subject to the Federal Deposit Insurance Act,
Customer has taken all action and maintained all such records required to be
taken or maintained by it to effect and maintain the enforceability of this
Agreement pursuant to the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.

     (b) Customer agrees to promptly notify Goldman in writing if any
representation or warranty made by Customer ceases to be accurate and complete
in any material respect.

8.   Customer Default.

     (a) In the event that: (i) Customer breaches or fails to timely and fully
perform any of its obligations hereunder or otherwise in respect of any
Contract; (ii) Customer fails to deposit or maintain required margin, fails to
pay required premiums or fails to make any other payments required hereunder or
otherwise in respect of any Contract; (iii) any representation made by Customer
or Advisor (if any) is not or ceases to be accurate and complete in any material
respect; (iv) a case in bankruptcy is commenced or a proceeding under any
insolvency or other law for the protection of creditors or for the appointment
of a receiver, trustee or similar officer is filed by or against Customer or
Customer makes or proposes to make any arrangement or composition for the
benefit of its creditors, or Customer or any of its property is subject to any
agreement, order or judgment providing for Customer's dissolution, liquidation
or reorganization, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee or similar
officer of Customer or such property; (v) any warrant or order of attachment is
issued against any Account or a judgment is levied against any Account; or (vi)
Goldman, after notifying Customer and offering Customer the opportunity to
provide adequate assurances acceptable to Goldman within a reasonable period of
time under the circumstances, reasonably considers it necessary for its
protection; THEN Goldman shall have the right, without limitation, to (A) close
out any or all of Customer's open Contracts; (B) cancel any or all of Customer's
outstanding orders; (C) treat any or all of Customer's obligations due Goldman
as immediately due and payable; (D) set off any obligations of Goldman to
Customer against any obligations of Customer to Goldman; (E) sell any Collateral
and/or set off and apply any Collateral or the proceeds of the sale of any
Collateral to satisfy any obligations of Customer to Goldman; (F) borrow or buy
any options, securities, Contracts or other property for any Account; and/or (G)
terminate any or all of Goldman's obligations for future performance to
Customer.

     (b) So long as Goldman's rights or position would not be jeopardized
thereby, Goldman shall make a good faith effort to notify Customer of its
intention to take any of


                                      -12-


the actions specified in (A) through (G) of Section 8(a) above before taking any
such action, PROVIDED that Goldman shall not be deemed to have breached any
obligation to Customer if no such notice is given. Any sale or purchase
hereunder may be made in any manner determined by Goldman to be commercially
reasonable. It is understood that, in all cases, a prior demand or notice shall
not be considered a waiver of Goldman's right to take any action provided for
herein and that Customer shall be liable for the payment of any deficiency
remaining in each Account after any such action is taken, together with interest
thereon and all costs relating to liquidation and collection (including
reasonable attorneys' fees).

9.   Compensation for Losses.

     Customer hereby agrees to compensate Goldman and its partners, officers,
employees and agents for any and all loss, liability or cost (including
reasonable attorneys' fees), penalty or tax incurred by Goldman as a result,
directly or indirectly, of Customer's failure to comply with any provision of,
or to perform any obligation under, this Agreement.

10.  Communications.

     (a) Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, all reports, instructions
and other communications by any party to another under this Agreement may be
oral or written. All oral communications shall promptly be confirmed in writing.

     (b) Any report, instruction or other communication transmitted pursuant to
this Agreement shall be transmitted to Customer at the address or telecopier or
telephone number provided to Goldman in writing or to Goldman at 85 Broad
Street, New York, New York 10004, Attention: Administrator, Futures Services
Department, by telecopier at the number provided to Customer or by telephone at
(212) 357-5494 or at such other address or number as either party hereto
notifies each other party hereto in writing.

11.  Severability.

     If any provision of this Agreement is or at any time becomes inconsistent
with or invalid under any present or future Applicable Law, such inconsistent or
invalid provision shall be deemed to be superseded or modified to conform to
such Applicable Law, but in all other respects this Agreement shall continue in
full force and effect.

12.  Entire Agreement.

     This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Customer, Advisor,
if any, and Goldman with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any
prior agreements between the parties with respect to such subject matter. For
purposes of this Section 12, the term "Goldman" shall mean Goldman, Sachs & Co.

13.  Termination.

     This Agreement shall continue in force until written notice of termination
is given in accordance with Section 10 of this Agreement by Customer or Goldman.
Termination of this Agreement shall not affect any transaction entered into
before receipt of notice of such termination and shall not relieve any party
hereto of any obligations incurred before such receipt. Customer, upon giving or
receiving notice of termination, shall promptly take all action necessary either
to close out all open positions in any Account or to transfer all such positions
to another FCM. Upon satisfaction by Customer of all obligations to Goldman
arising hereunder (including payment obligations with respect to the transfer of
Contracts to another FCM), Goldman shall transfer to the FCM specified by
Customer all Contracts, cash, securities and other property, then held for any
Account, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate.

14.  Amendment or Waiver.

     No provision of this Agreement shall in any respect be waived or modified
unless such waiver or modification is in writing and signed by authorized
representatives of each of Goldman and Customer. The rights and remedies of
Goldman and Customer under this Agreement are cumulative and no waiver or
modification of this Agreement or of any such right or remedy may be inferred
from any failure by Goldman or Customer to exercise any right or remedy under
this Agreement.

15.  Successors; Binding Effect.

     (a) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, each
of the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

     (b) This Agreement and the obligations of Customer hereunder may not be
assigned or delegated by Customer without the prior written consent of Goldman,
and any purported assignment or delegation without such consent shall be void.
Goldman may not assign its rights nor delegate its obligations under this
Agreement, in whole or part, without the prior written consent of Customer, and
any purported assignment or delegation without such consent shall be void,
except for an assignment and delegation of all of Goldman's rights and
obligations hereunder in whatever form Goldman determines may be appropriate to
a partnership, corporation, trust or other organization in whatever form that
succeeds to all or substantially all of Goldman's assets and business and that


                                      -13-



assumes such obligations by contract, operation of law or otherwise. Upon any
such assignment and delegation of obligations, Goldman shall be relieved of and
fully discharged from all obligations hereunder, whether such obligations arose
before or after such assignment and delegation.

16.  GOVERNING LAW.

     THE CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO
CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES).

17.  CONSENT TO JURISDICTION.

     Customer submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the
State of New York and of the Federal courts in the Southern District of New York
with respect to any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or
any transaction in connection herewith. Customer hereby waives irrevocably (i)
any objection to the jurisdiction of any such court which it might otherwise be
entitled to assert in any proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or any transaction in connection herewith; and (ii) any defense of
sovereign immunity or other immunity from suit or enforcement, whether before or
after judgment.

18.  Counterparts.

     This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same
instrument.

property of Services, and after the termination of this Agreement, ACGF shall
have no right to use the same.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this instrument as of the day
and year first above written.

     WHEREAS, each of the Issuers is regulated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC"), a federal functional regulator; and

     WHEREAS, each of the Issuers is subject to an SEC rule implementing 31

otherwise; and

     WHEREAS, it is reasonable for a Subsequent Issuer to rely on the

American Century Growth Funds, Inc.
4500 Main Street
Kansas City, Missouri 64111

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I have acted as counsel to American Century Growth Funds, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the Company's Registration
Statement on Form N-1A (File Nos. 33-132114, 811-21861), relating to the public
offering from time to time of any or all of the Company's authorized shares of
common stock, par value One Cent ($0.01) per share, that have been classified
and designated as indicated on Schedule A to this letter (the "Shares").

     In connection with rendering the opinions set forth below, I have examined
the Registration Statement; the Company's Articles of Incorporation, Articles of
Amendment and Restatement and Bylaws, as reflected in the Company's corporate
records; resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company relating to the
authorization and issuance of the Shares; and such other documents as I deemed
relevant. In conducting my examination, I have assumed the genuineness of all
signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity,
accuracy and completeness of documents purporting to be originals and the
conformity to originals of any copies of documents. I have not independently
established any facts represented in the documents so relied on.

     I am a member of the Bar of the State of Missouri. The opinions expressed
in this letter are based on the facts in existence and the laws in effect on the
date hereof and are limited to the laws (other than the conflict of law rules)
of the State of Maryland that in my experience are normally applicable to the
issuance of shares by registered investment companies organized as corporations
under the law of that state and to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"1933 Act"), the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"),
and the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")
thereunder. I express no opinion with respect to any other laws.

     Based upon and subject to the foregoing and the qualifications set forth
below, it is my opinion that:

     1. The issuance of the Shares has been duly authorized by the Company.

     2. When issued and paid for upon the terms provided in the Registration
Statement, subject to compliance with the 1933 Act, the 1940 Act, and applicable
state laws regulating the offer and sale of securities, and assuming the
continued valid existence of the Company under the laws of the State of
Maryland, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

     For the record, it should be stated that I am an employee of American
Century Services, LLC, an affiliate of the Company's investment advisor.

     I hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement. I assume no obligation to advise you of any changes in
the foregoing subsequent to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. In
giving my consent I do not thereby admit that I am in the category of persons
whose consent is required under Section 7 of the 1933 Act or the rules and
regulations of the SEC thereunder. The opinions expressed herein are matters of
professional judgment and are not a guarantee of result.

                                            Very truly yours,

Kansas City, MO  64111

     RE: Initial Capital Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     In order to provide American Century Growth Funds, Inc. ("ACGF") with the
initial capital required pursuant to Section 14 of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, American Century Investment Management, Inc. ("ACIM") is
hereby purchasing from ACGF 10,000 shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par
value, of Institutional Class shares of Legacy Large Cap, a series of ACGF (the
"Shares"), at a purchase price of $10.00 per Share, for a total purchase price
of $100,000.

     ACIM is aware that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), on the basis that the sale of such
shares will be exempt under Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act as not involving any
public offering. Reliance on such exemption is predicated, in part, on ACIM's
representation and warranty to ACGF that the Shares are being acquired for
ACIM's own account for investment purposes and not with a view to the
distribution or redemption thereof, and that ACIM has no present intention to
dispose of the Shares. ACIM further represents that it will not take any action
that will subject the sale of the Shares to the registration provisions of the
1933 Act.


                                  Sincerely,

                                  AMERICAN CENTURY INVESTMENT
                                  MANAGEMENT, INC.

Directors (the "Board") have established multiple classes of shares of the
various funds of the Issuer, including a class of shares designated as Advisor
Class; and

     WHEREAS, the Board, in considering whether the Funds should adopt and

     WHEREAS, the Board desires to authorize the funds identified in SCHEDULE A
(the "Funds") to bear expenses of individual shareholder services and
distribution of certain of their shares by adopting this Master Distribution and
Individual Shareholder Services Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act

continue thereafter in full force and effect for successive periods of up to one
year, provided that each such continuance is approved in the manner provided in
SECTION 4.



                                                                          page 3




SECTION 6. REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

ACIM (or its designee) shall administer this Plan in accordance with Rule 12b-1
of the 1940 Act. ACIM will provide to the Board, and the Independent Directors
will review and approve, in exercise of their fiduciary duties, at least
quarterly, a written report of the amounts expended with respect to the R Class
shares of each Fund by ACIM under this Plan and such other information as may be
required by the 1940 Act and Rule 12b-1 thereunder.

SECTION 7. TERMINATION

This Plan may be terminated without penalty at any time with respect to the R
Class shares of any Fund by vote of the Board, by votes of a majority of the
Independent Directors, or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting R
Class shares of that Fund. Termination of the Plan with respect to the R Class
shares of one Fund will not affect the continued effectiveness of this Plan with
respect to the R Class shares of any other Fund.

such amendment is further approved by a majority of the outstanding voting
securities of the R Class shares of the Fund. No other material amendment to the
Plan will be made unless approved in the manner provided for approval and annual
renewal in SECTION 5 hereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that a new Fund may be added by
the Issuer upon approval by the Board by executing a new Schedule A to this
Plan.

SECTION 9. RECORDKEEPING

The Issuer will preserve copies of this Plan (including any amendments thereto)
and any related agreements and all reports made pursuant to SECTION 6 hereof for
a period of not less than six years from the date of this Plan, the first two
years in an easily accessible place.

SECTION 10. INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS

So long as the Plan remains in effect, the selection and nomination of persons
to serve as Independent Directors on the Board shall be committed to the
discretion of the Independent Directors on the Board then in office.
Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall prevent the participation of
other persons in the selection and nomination process so long as a final
decision on any such selection or nomination is within the discretion of, and
approved by, the Independent Directors so responsible.


                                                                          page 4



     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has adopted this Plan as of May 15, 2006.

                               MULTIPLE CLASS PLAN
                                       OF
                       AMERICAN CENTURY GROWTH FUNDS, INC.

     WHEREAS, the above-named corporation (the "Issuer") is an open-end
management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"); and

     WHEREAS, the common stock of the Issuer is currently divided into a number
of separate series of shares; and

     WHEREAS, the Issuer desires to offer classes of such series of shares
pursuant to Rule 18f-3; and

     WHEREAS, Rule 18f-3 requires that the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the
"Board") adopt a written plan setting forth (1) the specific arrangement for
shareholder services and the distribution of securities for each class, (2) the
allocation of expenses for each class and (3) any related conversion features or
exchange privileges; and

     WHEREAS, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, as
defined in SECTION 3D below, has determined that this plan (the "Plan"), adopted
pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act, is in the best interests of each
class individually and the Issuer as a whole;

     NOW, THEREFORE, the Issuer hereby adopts, on behalf of the Funds (as
defined in SECTION 2A below), this Multiple Class Plan, in accordance with Rule
18f-3 under the 1940 Act on the following terms and conditions:

SECTION 1. ESTABLISHMENT OF PLAN

As required by Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act, this Plan describes the multiple
class system for certain series of shares of the Issuer, including the separate
class arrangements for shareholder services and/or distribution of shares, the
method for allocating expenses to classes and any related conversion features or
exchange privileges applicable to the classes. Upon the effective date of this
Plan, the Issuer elects to offer multiple classes of its shares, as described
herein, pursuant to Rule 18f-3 and this Plan.

SECTION 2. FEATURES OF THE CLASSES

a.   DIVISION INTO CLASSES. Each series of shares of the Issuer identified in
     SCHEDULE A attached hereto, and each series of shares of any Issuer
     subsequently added to this Plan (collectively, the "Funds"), may offer one
     or more classes of shares: the Investor Class, the Institutional Class, the
     Advisor Class, and the R Class. The classes that each Fund is authorized to
     issue pursuant to this Plan are set forth in SCHEDULE A. Shares of each
     class of a Fund shall represent an equal pro rata interest in such Fund,
     and generally, shall have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other
     rights, preferences, powers,



                                       1



     restrictions, limitations, qualifications, and terms and conditions, except
     that: (A) each class shall have a different designation; (B) each class of
     shares shall bear any Class Expenses, as defined in SECTION 3D(3) below;
     (C) each class shall have exclusive voting rights on any matter submitted
     to shareholders that relates solely to its service arrangement; and (D)
     each class shall have separate voting rights on any matter submitted to
     shareholders in which the interests of one class differ from the interests
     of any other class.

b.   FEES.

     The Issuer of the Funds is a party to a Management Agreement with American
     Century Investment Management, Inc. ("ACIM"), the Funds' investment
     adviser, for the provision of investment advisory and management services
     and shareholder services. Because the assets of the Issuer are invested in
     other open-end management investment companies advised by ACIM, no class or
     Fund pays any fee to ACIM for such investment advisory and management
     services. The Investor, Advisor or R Classes of the Funds each pay an
     Administrative Fee of 20 basis points for the shareholder services provided
     by ACIM under the Management Agreement. No Administrative Fee is paid by
     the Institutional Class of the Funds.

c.   SHAREHOLDER SERVICES AND DISTRIBUTION SERVICES.

     (1)  ADVISOR CLASS DISTRIBUTION PLAN. Shares of the Advisor Class of each
     Fund are offered subject to an Advisor Class Master Distribution and
     Individual Shareholder Services Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940
     Act (the "Advisor Class Plan") adopted by the Issuer effective August 31,
     2004. Advisor Class shares of each Fund shall pay American Century
     Investment Services, Inc. ("Distributor") for the expenses of individual
     shareholder services and administrative services and distribution expenses
     incurred in connection with providing such services for shares of the
     Funds, as provided in the Advisor Class Plan, at an aggregate annual rate
     of .25% of the average daily net assets of such class.

     (2)  R CLASS DISTRIBUTION PLAN. Shares of the R Class of each Fund are
     offered subject to an R Class Master Distribution and Individual
     Shareholder Services Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (the "R
     Class Plan") adopted by the Issuers effective August 31, 2004. R Class
     Shares of each Fund shall pay Distributor for the expenses of individual
     shareholder services and distribution expenses incurred in connection with
     providing such services for shares of the Funds, as provided in the R Class
     Plan, at an aggregate annual rate of .50% of the average daily net assets
     of such class.

     (3)  DEFINITION OF SERVICES. Under the Advisor and R Class Plans,
     "distribution expenses" include, but are not limited to expenses incurred
     in connection with certain past and continuing services, including (A)
     payment of sales commissions, ongoing commissions and other payments to
     brokers, dealers, financial institutions or others who sell shares of the
     relevant class pursuant to selling agreements; (B) compensation to
     employees of Distributor who engage in or support distribution of the
     shares of the relevant class; (C) compensation to, and expenses (including
     overhead and telephone expenses) of,


                                       2


     Distributor; (D) the printing of prospectuses, statements of additional
     information and reports for other than existing shareholders; (E) the
     preparation, printing and distribution of sales literature and advertising
     materials provided to the Funds' shareholders and prospective shareholders;
     (F) receiving and answering correspondence from prospective shareholders,
     including distributing prospectuses, statements of additional information,
     and shareholder reports; (G) the providing of facilities to answer
     questions from prospective investors about Fund shares; (H) complying with
     federal and state securities laws pertaining to the sale of Fund Shares;
     (I) assisting investors in completing application forms and selecting
     dividend and other account options; (J) the providing of other reasonable
     assistance in connection with the distribution of Fund shares; (K) the
     organizing and conducting of sales seminars and payments in the form of
     transactional compensation or promotional incentives; (L) profit on the
     foregoing; and (M) such other distribution and services activities as the
     Issuer determine may be paid for by the Issuer pursuant to the terms of
     this Agreement and in accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act.

     Under the Advisor and R Class Plans, individual shareholder services may
     include, but are not limited to: (A) individualized and customized
     investment advisory services, including the consideration of shareholder
     profiles and specific goals; (B) the creation of investment models and
     asset allocation models for use by the shareholder in selecting appropriate
     Funds; (C) proprietary research about investment choices and the market in
     general; (D) periodic rebalancing of shareholder accounts to ensure
     compliance with the selected asset allocation; (E) consolidation of
     shareholder accounts in one place; and (F) other individual services.

SECTION 3. ALLOCATION OF INCOME AND EXPENSES

a.   NON-DAILY DIVIDEND FUNDS. The gross income, realized and unrealized capital
     gains and losses and expenses (other than Class Expenses) of each Fund,
     other than the Daily Dividend Funds, shall be allocated to each class on
     the basis of its net asset value relative to the net asset value of the
     Fund. Expenses to be so allocated also include Issuer Expenses and Fund
     Expenses.

b.   APPORTIONMENT OF CERTAIN EXPENSES. Expenses of a Fund shall be apportioned
     to each class of shares depending on the nature of the expense item. Issuer
     Expenses and Fund Expenses will be allocated among the classes of shares
     pro rata based on their relative net asset values in relation to the net
     asset value of all outstanding shares in the Fund. Approved Class Expenses
     shall be allocated to the particular class to which they are attributable.
     In addition, certain expenses may be allocated differently if their method
     of imposition changes. Thus, if a Class Expense can no longer be attributed
     to a class, it shall be charged to a Fund for allocation among classes, as
     determined by ACIM.

c.   DEFINITIONS.

     (1)  ISSUER EXPENSES. "Issuer Expenses" include expenses of an Issuer that
     are not attributable to a particular Fund or class of a Fund. Issuer
     Expenses include fees and expenses of those Directors/Trustees who are not
     "interested persons" as defined in


                                       3


     the 1940 Act ("Independent Directors"), including counsel fees for the
     Independent Directors, and certain extraordinary expenses of the Issuer
     that are not attributable to a particular Fund or class of a Fund.

     (2)  FUND EXPENSES. "Fund Expenses" include expenses of an Issuer that are
     attributable to a particular fund but are not attributable to a particular
     class of the Fund. Fund Expenses include (i) interest expenses, (ii) taxes,
     (iii) brokerage expenses, and (iv) certain extraordinary expenses of a Fund
     that are not attributable to a particular class of a Fund.

     (3)  CLASS EXPENSES. "Class Expenses" are expenses that are attributable to
     a particular class of a Fund and shall be limited to: (i) applicable
     administrative fee; (ii) payments made pursuant to the Advisor Class Plan;
     (iii) payments made pursuant to the R Class Plan; and (iv) certain
     extraordinary expenses of an Issuer or Fund that are attributable to a
     particular class of a Fund.

     (4)  EXTRAORDINARY EXPENSES. "Extraordinary expenses" shall be allocated as
     an Issuer Expense, a Fund Expense or a Class Expense in such manner and
     utilizing such methodology as ACIM shall reasonably determine, which
     determination shall be subject to ratification or approval of the Board and
     shall be consistent with applicable legal principles and requirements under
     the 1940 Act and the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. ACIM shall report
     to the Board quarterly regarding those extraordinary expenses that have
     been allocated as Class Expenses. Any such allocations shall be reviewed
     by, and subject to the approval of, the Board.

SECTION 4. EXCHANGE PRIVILEGES

Subject to the restrictions and conditions set forth in the Funds' prospectuses,
shareholders may exchange shares of one class of a Fund for shares of the same
class of another Fund, provided that the amount to be exchanged meets the
applicable minimum investment requirements and the shares to be acquired in the
exchange are qualified for sale in the stockholder's state of residence.

SECTION 5. CONVERSION FEATURES

Conversions from one class of shares into another class of shares are not
permitted; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if a shareholder of a particular class is no
longer eligible to own shares of that class, upon prior notice to such
shareholder, those shares will be converted to shares of the same Fund but of
another class in which such shareholder is eligible to invest. Similarly, if a
shareholder becomes eligible to invest in shares of another class that has lower
expenses than the class in which such shareholder is invested, such shareholder
may be eligible to convert into shares of the same Fund but of the class with
the lower expenses.

SECTION 6. QUARTERLY AND ANNUAL REPORTS

The Board shall receive quarterly and annual reports concerning all allocated
Class Expenses and distribution and servicing expenditures complying with
paragraph (b)(3)(ii) of Rule 12b-1, as it may be amended from time to time. In
the reports, only expenditures properly attributable to the



                                       4

sale or servicing of a particular class of shares will be used to justify any
distribution or servicing fee or other expenses charged to that class.
Expenditures not related to the sale or servicing of a particular class shall
not be presented to the Board to justify any fee attributable to that class. The
reports, including the allocations upon which they are based, shall be subject
to the review and approval of the Independent Directors of the Issuer who have
no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of this Plan in the
exercise of their fiduciary duties.

SECTION 7. WAIVER OR REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES

Expenses may be waived or reimbursed by any adviser to the Issuer, by the
Issuer's underwriter or by any other provider of services to the Issuer without
the prior approval of the Board, provided that the fee (other than a Class
Expense, such as a Rule 12b-1 fee) is waived or reimbursed to all shares of a
particular Fund in proportion to their relative average daily net asset values.

SECTION 8. EFFECTIVENESS OF PLAN

Upon receipt of approval by votes of a majority of both (a) the Board and (b)
the Independent Directors, this Plan shall become effective August 31, 2004.

SECTION 9. MATERIAL MODIFICATIONS

This Plan may not be amended to modify materially its terms unless such
amendment is approved in the manner provided for initial approval in SECTION 8
herein; PROVIDED; HOWEVER; that a new Fund may be added by any Issuer upon
approval by that Issuer's Board by executing a new Schedule A to this Plan.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has adopted this Multiple Class Plan as of
May 15, 2006.

[american century logo and text logo]


          American Century Investments
          WORKING WITH INTEGRITY...



CODE OF ETHICS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Defined terms are in BOLD ITALICS. Frequently used terms are defined in Appendix 1.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I.   PURPOSE OF CODE.

     The Code of Ethics was developed to guide the personal investment
     activities of American Century employees, officers and directors, including
     MEMBERS OF THEIR IMMEDIATE FAMILY. In doing so, it is intended to aid in
     the elimination and detection of personal securities transactions by
     American Century personnel that might be viewed as fraudulent or might
     conflict with the interests of our client portfolios. Primary among such
     transactions are the misuse for personal benefit of client trading
     information (so-called "front-running"), the misappropriation of investment
     opportunities that may be appropriate for investment by client portfolios,
     and excessive personal trading that may affect our ability to provide
     services to our clients.

     The Directors of American Century's registered investment companies (our
     "Fund Clients"(1)) who are not "interested persons" (the "Independent
     Directors") are covered under a separate Code applicable only to them.

     Violations of this Code must be promptly reported to the Chief Compliance
     Officer.


II.  WHY DO WE HAVE A CODE OF ETHICS?

     A.   INVESTORS HAVE PLACED THEIR TRUST IN AMERICAN CENTURY.

          As an investment adviser, American Century is entrusted with the
          assets of our clients for investment purposes. American Century's
          fiduciary responsibility to place the interests of our clients before
          our own and to avoid even the appearance of a conflict of interest
          extends to all American Century employees. Persons subject to this
          Code must adhere to this general principle as well as comply with the
          Code's specific provisions. This is how we earn and keep our clients'
          trust. To protect this trust, we will hold ourselves to the highest
          ethical standards.

     B.   AMERICAN CENTURY WANTS TO GIVE YOU FLEXIBLE INVESTING OPTIONS.

          Management believes that American Century's own mutual funds and other
          pooled investment vehicles provide a broad range of investment
          alternatives in virtually every segment of the securities market. We
          encourage American Century employees to use these vehicles for their
          personal investments. We do not encourage active trading by our
          employees. We recognize, however, that individual needs differ and
          that there are other attractive investment opportunities. As a result,
          this Code is intended to give you and your family flexibility to
          invest, without jeopardizing relationships with our clients.


------------------------
1 See Schedule A for a listing of all of our Fund Clients.




AMERICAN CENTURY INVESTMENTS                                     CODE OF ETHICS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

          American Century employees are able to undertake personal transactions
          in stocks and other individual securities subject to the terms of this
          Code of Ethics. This Code of Ethics requires preclearance of all such
          transactions by Access, Investment, and Portfolio Persons, places
          further limitations on personal investments by Investment and
          Portfolio Persons, and requires transaction reporting by all
          employees.

     C.   FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES THAT WE HAVE A CODE OF ETHICS.

          The Investment Company Act of 1940 and the Investment Advisers Act of
          1940 require that we have safeguards in place to prevent personal
          investment activities that might take inappropriate advantage of our
          fiduciary position. These safeguards are embodied in this Code of
          Ethics.(2)

III. DOES THE CODE OF ETHICS APPLY TO YOU?

     YES! All American Century employees and contract personnel must observe the
     principles contained in the Code of Ethics. However, there are different
     requirements for different categories of employees. The category in which
     you have been placed generally depends on your job function, although
     unique circumstances may prompt us to place you in a different category.
     The range of categories is as follows:



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FEWEST RESTRICTIONS  ----------------------------------------›  MOST RESTRICTIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NON-ACCESS PERSON     ACCESS PERSON     INVESTMENT PERSON     PORTFOLIO PERSON
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


     The standard profile for each of the categories is described below:

     A.   PORTFOLIO PERSONS.

          Portfolio Persons include portfolio managers (equity or fixed income)
          and any other Investment Persons (as defined below) with authority to
          enter purchase/sale orders on behalf of the funds.

     B.   INVESTMENT PERSONS.

          Investment Persons include

          » Any SUPERVISED PERSONS that have access to nonpublic information
            regarding any client portfolio's securities trading, securities
            recommendations, or portfolio holdings or is involved in making
            securities recommendations that are nonpublic; and

          » Any officers and directors of an INVESTMENT ADVISER.

          Such persons include but are not limited to investment analysts,
          equity traders, research and financial analyst personnel.

------------------------
2  Rule 17j-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and Rule 204A-1 under
   the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 serve as a basis for much of what is
   contained in American Century's Code of Ethics.

AMERICAN CENTURY INVESTMENTS                                      CODE OF ETHICS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


     C.   ACCESS PERSONS.

          Access Persons are persons who, in connection with their regular
          function and duties, consistently obtain information regarding current
          recommendations with respect to the purchase or sale of securities or
          real-time trading information concerning client portfolios. Examples
          include:

          »   Persons who are directly involved in the execution, clearance,
              and settlement of purchases and sales of securities (e.g. certain
              investment accounting personnel);

          »   Persons whose function requires them to evaluate trading activity
              on a real time basis (e.g. attorneys, accountants, portfolio
              compliance personnel);

          »   Persons who assist in the design, implementation, and maintenance
              of investment management technology systems (e.g. certain I/T
              personnel);

          »   Support staff and supervisors of the above if they are required
              to obtain such information as a part of their regular function
              and duties; and

          »   An officer or "interested" director of our Fund Clients.

          Single, infrequent, or inadvertent instances of access to current
          recommendations or real-time trading information or the opportunity to
          obtain such information through casual observance or bundled data
          security access is not sufficient to qualify you as an Access Person.

     D.   NON-ACCESS PERSONS.

          If you are an officer, director, employee or contractor of American
          Century and you do not fit into any of the above categories, you are a
          Non-Access Person. While your trading is not subject to preclearance
          and other restrictions applicable to Portfolio, Investment, and Access
          Persons, you are still subject to the remaining provisions of the Code
          and are required to report to American Century certain information
          regarding your brokerage accounts and accounts invested in REPORTABLE
          MUTUAL FUNDS.(3)

IV.  RESTRICTIONS ON PERSONAL INVESTING ACTIVITIES.

     A.   PRINCIPLES OF PERSONAL INVESTING.

          In keeping with applicable law and our high ethical standards,
          management of client portfolios should never be subordinated to
          personal gain or advantage. American Century employees, officers and
          directors may not misuse nonpublic information about client security
          holdings or portfolio transactions made or contemplated for a client
          for personal benefit or to cause others to benefit. Likewise, you may
          not cause a client portfolio to take action, or fail to take action,
          for personal benefit rather than the benefit of the client.

          In addition, investment opportunities appropriate for the funds should
          not be retained for personal benefit. Investment opportunities arising
          as a result of American Century

                                                                          Page 3

AMERICAN CENTURY INVESTMENTS                                      CODE OF ETHICS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


          investment management activities must first be considered for
          inclusion in our client portfolios.

          In undertaking their personal securities transactions, all American
          Century employees, officers, and directors must comply with the
          FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS and other governmental rules and regulations.

     B.   PRECLEARANCE OF PERSONAL SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS.
          [ACCESS, INVESTMENT, AND PORTFOLIO PERSONS]

          Preclearance of personal securities transactions allows American
          Century to prevent certain trades that may conflict with client
          trading activities. The nature of securities markets makes it
          impossible for us to perfectly predict those conflicts. As a
          consequence, even trades that are precleared can result in potential
          conflicts between your trades and those effected for clients. You are
          responsible for avoiding such conflicts with any client portfolios for
          which you make investment recommendations. You have an obligation to
          American Century and its clients to avoid even a perception of a
          conflict of interest with respect to personal trading activities.

          All PORTFOLIO, INVESTMENT, AND ACCESS PERSONS must comply with the
          following preclearance procedures prior to entering into (i) the
          purchase or sale of a SECURITY for your own account or (ii) the
          purchase or sale of a SECURITY for an account for which you are a
          BENEFICIAL OWNER(3):

          1.   Is the SECURITY a "Code-Exempt Security"?

               Check Appendix 3 to see if the SECURITY is listed as a
               CODE-EXEMPT SECURITY. If it is, then you may execute the
               transaction. Otherwise, proceed to the next step.

          2.   Preclear the transaction with the Legal Department's Compliance
               Group.(4)

               There are two ways to do this:

               a.   Use the "PTRA" routine in the CICS system and enter your
                    request at the Personal Trade System screen.

               b.   If you do not have access to "PTRA," e-mail your request to
                    "LG-PERSONAL SECURITY TRADES" (or
                    "LG-PERSONAL_SECURITY_TRADES@AMERICANCENTURY.COM," if
                    sending from outside American Century's Lotus Notes system),
                    and provide the following information:

                    » Issuer name;

                    » Ticker symbol or CUSIP number;

                    » Type of security (stock, bond, note, etc.);

                    » Number of shares;


------------------------
3  See Appendix 2 for an explanation of beneficial ownership.

4  If you are the Chief Investment Officer of an INVESMENT ADVISER, you must
   receive your preclearance from the General Counsel or his or her designee.


                                                                          Page 4




AMERICAN CENTURY INVESTMENTS                                      CODE OF ETHICS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



                    » Maximum expected dollar amount of proposed
                      transaction; and

                    » Nature of transaction (purchase or sale).

          3.   Use the "PTRB" routine in the CICS system to view the status of
               your trade requests.


          4.   If you receive PRECLEARANCE for the transaction,(5) you have five
               (5) business days to execute your transaction. If you do not
               execute your transaction within five (5) business days, you must
               repeat the preclearance procedure prior to undertaking the
               transaction.

     American Century reserves the right to restrict the purchase and sale by
     Portfolio, Investment, and Access Persons of any security at any time. Such
     restrictions are imposed through the use of a Restricted List that will
     cause the Code of Ethics system to deny the approval of preclearance to
     transact in the security. Securities may be restricted for a variety of
     reasons including, without limitation, the possession of material nonpublic
     information by American Century or its employees.

     C.   ADDITIONAL TRADING RESTRICTIONS
          [INVESTMENT AND PORTFOLIO PERSONS]

          The following additional trading restrictions apply if you are an
          Investment or Portfolio Person:

          1.   Initial Public Offerings.

               You may not acquire SECURITIES issued in an INITIAL PUBLIC
               OFFERING.

          2.   Private Placements.

               Before you acquire any SECURITIES in a PRIVATE PLACEMENT, you
               must obtain approval from the Chief Investment Officer. Request
               for preclearance can be submitted by entering your request in
               PTRA and accessing the Private Placement screen (PF9 after your
               initials are entered) or by sending your request to "LG-PERSONAL
               SECURITY TRADES." You may not participate in any consideration of
               an investment in securities of the private placement issuer for
               any client portfolios while your preclearance is pending or
               during any period that you own, or are a BENEFICIAL OWNER of, the
               privately-placed security.

          3.   Short-Term Trading Profits.

               You may not profit from any purchase and sale, or sale and
               purchase, of the same (or equivalent)securities other than
               CODE-EXEMPT SECURITIES within sixty (60) calendar days.

------------------------
5  See Appendix 4 for a description of the preclearance process.


                                                                          Page 5


AMERICAN CENTURY INVESTMENTS                                      CODE OF ETHICS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


     D.   SEVEN-DAY BLACKOUT PERIOD
          [PORTFOLIO PERSONS]

          If you are a Portfolio Person, you may also not purchase or sell a
          SECURITY other than a CODE EXEMPT SECURITY within seven (7) calendar
          days before and after it has been traded as a part of a client
          portfolio that you manage.

     E.   TRADING ON INSIDE INFORMATION
          [ALL EMPLOYEES]

          As you are aware, federal law prohibits you from trading based on
          material nonpublic information received from any source or
          communicating this information to others. This includes any
          confidential information that may be obtained by American Century
          employees regarding the advisability of purchasing or selling specific
          SECURITIES on behalf of clients. You are expected to abide by the
          highest ethical and legal standards in conducting your personal
          investment activities. For more information regarding what to do when
          you believe you are in possession of material nonpublic information,
          please consult American Century's INSIDER TRADING POLICY.

     F.   TRADING IN AMERICAN CENTURY MUTUAL FUNDS
          [ALL EMPLOYEES]

          Excessive, short-term trading of American Century client portfolios
          and other abusive trading practices (such as time zone arbitrage) may
          disrupt portfolio management strategies and harm fund performance.
          These practices can cause funds to maintain higher-than-normal cash
          balances and incur increased trading costs. Short-term and other
          abusive trading strategies can also cause unjust dilution of
          shareholder value if such trading is based on information not
          accurately reflected in the price of the fund.

          You may not engage in short-term trading or other abusive trading
          strategies with respect to any American Century client portfolio. For
          purposes of this Code, American Century client portfolios include any
          mutual fund, variable annuity, institutional, or other account advised
          or subadvised by American Century.(6)

          FIVE-DAY HOLDING PERIOD. You will be deemed to have engaged in
          short-term trading if you have purchased shares or otherwise invested
          in a variable-priced (i.e., non-money market) American Century client
          portfolio (whether directly or through a brokerage, retirement plan,
          or other intermediary) and redeem shares or otherwise withdraw assets
          from that portfolio within five (5) business days. In other words, if
          you make an investment in an American Century fund, you may not redeem
          shares from that fund before the completion of the fifth (5th)
          business day following the purchase date.

          LIMITED TRADING WITHIN 30 DAYS. We realize that abusive trading is not
          limited to a 5-day window. As a result, persons subject to this Code
          of Ethics are also limited to having not more than two (2) instances
          during any 12-month period of purchasing shares or otherwise investing
          in any variable-priced American Century client portfolio (whether
          directly or through a brokerage, retirement plan, or other
          intermediary) and

------------------------
6  See Schedule A for a list of Fund Clients. See Schedule B for a list of
   SUBADVISED FUNDS.

                                                                          Page 6


AMERICAN CENTURY INVESTMENTS                                      CODE OF ETHICS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


          redeeming shares or otherwise withdrawing assets from that portfolio
          within 30 calendar days. In other words, persons subject to this Code
          are limited during any 12-month period to not more than two (2) round
          trips (i.e., a purchase and sale) in all American Century funds within
          30 calendar days.

          One round trip within 30 calendar days will subject that trade to
          scrutiny to determine whether the trade was abusive. Two round trips
          will receive additional scrutiny. Three or more round trips will be
          considered a violation.

          TRANSACTIONS SUBJECT TO LIMITATIONS. These trading restrictions are
          applicable to any account for which you have the authority to direct
          trades or of which you are a BENEFICIAL OWNER. Automatic investments
          such as AMIs, dividend reinvestments, employer plan contributions, and
          payroll deductions are not considered transactions for purposes of
          commencing the 5- and 30-day holding requirements. Check writing
          redemptions in a variable-priced fund will not be considered
          redemptions for purposes of these requirements.

          INFORMATION TO BE PROVIDED. To aid in the monitoring of these
          restrictions, you are required to provide certain information
          regarding mutual fund accounts beneficially owned by you. See the
          Reporting Requirements for your applicable Code of Ethics
          classification.


V.   REPORTING REQUIREMENTS.

     You are required to file complete, accurate, and timely reports of all
     required information under this Code. All such information is subject to
     review for indications of abusive trading, misappropriation of information,
     or failure to adhere to the requirements of the Code of Ethics.

     A.   REPORTING REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO ALL EMPLOYEES

          1.   Code Acknowledgement

               Upon employment, any amendment of the Code, and not less than
               annually thereafter, you will be required to acknowledge that you
               have received, read, and will comply with this Code. Non-Access
               persons will receive an e-mail requesting such information.
               Access, Investment, and Portfolio Persons are required to provide
               this information and acknowledgement as a part of their Initial
               and Annual Holdings Reports and will receive an e-mail requesting
               such information upon any amendment of the Code.

          2.   Reporting of Mutual Fund Accounts

               a.   Direct Accounts/American Century Retirement Plans

                    No transaction reporting is necessary for mutual fund
                    accounts held directly through American Century under your
                    social security number or for American Century retirement
                    plans. Trading in such accounts will be monitored based on
                    information contained on our transfer agency system.
                    Investment and Portfolio Persons must include holdings in
                    these accounts on their Initial and Annual Holdings Reports.


                                                                          Page 7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

               b.   Beneficially Owned Direct Accounts

                    You must report the following information for mutual fund
                    accounts in which you have a BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP interest
                    held directly through American Century under a taxpayer
                    identification or social security number other than your own
                    (so-called "BENEFICIALLY OWNED DIRECT ACCOUNTS"):

                    »  Account number; and

                    »  Name(s) of record owner(s) of the account.

                    Transaction reporting will not be required on such accounts
                    as trading will be monitored based on information contained
                    on our transfer agency system.

               c.   Certain Third-Party Accounts

                    Certain third-party accounts in which you have a BENEFICIAL
                    OWNERSHIP interest in REPORTABLE MUTUAL FUNDS must be
                    reported. These "REPORTABLE THIRD-PARTY ACCOUNTS" include
                    any (i) accounts in which you own or BENEFICIALLY OWN any
                    SUBADVISED FUND (see Schedule B of this Code for a list of
                    SUBADVISED FUNDS); and (ii) non-American Century retirement
                    plan, unit investment trust, variable annuity, or similar
                    accounts in which you own or BENEFICIALLY OWN REPORTABLE
                    MUTUAL FUNDS. The following information must be reported for
                    such accounts:

                    »  Name of the financial institution where held;

                    »  Account number; and

                    »  Name(s) of the record owner(s) of the account.

                    In addition, you must provide either account statements or
                    confirmations of trading activity in such REPORTABLE
                    THIRD-PARTY ACCOUNTS to the Code of Ethics Manager within 30
                    calendar days of the end of each calendar quarter. Such
                    statements or confirmations must include all trading
                    activity in such accounts during the preceding calendar
                    quarter.

          3.   Duplicate Confirmations

               You are required to instruct your broker-dealer to send duplicate
               confirmations of all transactions in reportable brokerage
               accounts to:

               Attention: Compliance
               P.O. Box 410141
               Kansas City, MO 64141-0141

               "REPORTABLE BROKERAGE ACCOUNTS" include both brokerage accounts
               maintained by you and brokerage accounts maintained by a person
               whose trades you must report because you are a BENEFICIAL OWNER.

     B.   ADDITIONAL REPORTING REQUIREMENTS FOR ACCESS, INVESTMENT, AND
          PORTFOLIO PERSONS

          1.   Initial Holdings Report

                                                                          Page 8


AMERICAN CENTURY INVESTMENTS                                      CODE OF ETHICS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



               Within ten (10) calendar days of becoming an Access, Investment,
               or Portfolio Person, you must submit an Initial Holdings Report.
               The information submitted must be current as of a date no more
               than 45 calendar days before the report is filed and include the
               following:

                  SECURITIES(7), that you own or in which you have a BENEFICIAL
                  OWNERSHIP interest. This listing must include the name, number of
                  shares, and principal amount of each covered security.

               »  Investment and Portfolio Persons must also provide a list of all
                  REPORTABLE MUTUAL FUND holdings owned or in which they have a
                  BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP interest. This list must include investments
                  held directly through American Century, investments in any
                  SUBADVISED FUND, holdings in a REPORTABLE BROKERAGE ACCOUNT, and
                  holdings in non-American Century retirement plans, unit
                  investment trusts, variable annuity, or similar accounts.

          2.   Quarterly Transactions Report

               Within thirty (30) calendar days of the end of each calendar
               quarter, all Portfolio, Investment and Access persons must submit
               a Quarterly Transactions Report. These persons will be reminded
               by electronic mail of the dates and requirements for filing the
               report. This reminder will contain a link to a database that will
               generate a report of the transactions for which we have received

VI.  CAN THERE BE ANY EXCEPTIONS TO THE RESTRICTIONS?

     YES. The General Counsel or his or her designee may grant limited
     exemptions to specific provisions of the Code on a case-by-case basis.

     A.   HOW TO REQUEST AN EXEMPTION

          E-mail a written request to "LG-PERSONAL SECURITY TRADES" (or
          "LG-PERSONAL_SECURITY_TRADES@AMERICANCENTURY.COM" if sending from
          outside American Century's Lotus Notes system) detailing your
          situation.

     B.   FACTORS CONSIDERED

          In considering your request, the General Counsel or his or her
          designee will grant your exemption request if he or she is satisfied
          that:

          »  Your request addresses an undue personal hardship imposed on you by
             the Code of Ethics;

          »  Your situation is not contemplated by the Code of Ethics; and

          »  Your exemption, if granted, would be consistent with the achievement
             of the objectives of the Code of Ethics.

     C.   EXEMPTION REPORTING

          All exemptions must be reported to the Boards of Directors of our Fund
          Clients at the next regular meeting following the initial grant of the
          exemption. Subsequent grants of an exemption of a type previously
          reported to the Boards may be effected without reporting. The Boards
          of Directors may choose to delegate the task of receiving and
          reviewing reports to a committee comprised of Independent Directors.

     D.   THIRTY-DAY DENIAL EXEMPTION ON SALES

          An exemption may be requested when a request to sell a security has
          been denied once a week over a 30-day timeframe. The covered person
          must be able to verify that they have periodically entered a request
          to sell a security in PTRA at least four times throughout the 30-day
          period. A written request must be e-mailed to "LG-PERSONAL SECURITY
          TRADES" to request the exemption. The General Counsel or his or her
          designee will review the request and determine if the exemption is
          warranted. If approval is granted, compliance will designate a short
          trading window during which the sale can take place.


                                                                         Page 11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



     E.   NON-VOLITIONAL TRANSACTION EXEMPTION

          Certain non-volitional purchase and sale transactions shall be exempt
          from the preclearance requirements of the Code. These transactions
          shall include stock splits, stock dividends, exchanges and
          conversions, mandatory tenders, pro rata distributions to all holders
          of a class of securities, gifts, inheritances, margin/maintenance
          calls (where the securities to be sold are not directed by the covered
          person), dividend reinvestment plans, and employer sponsored payroll
          deduction plans. These purchase and sale transactions, however, shall
          not be exempt from the Quarterly Transaction Report and Annual
          Holdings Report provisions of the Code.

     F.   BLIND TRUST EXEMPTION

          An exemption from the preclearance and reporting requirements of the
          Code may be requested for SECURITIES that are held in a blind or
          quasi-blind trust arrangement. For the exemption to be available, you
          or a MEMBER OF YOUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY must not have authority to advise
          or direct SECURITIES transactions of the trust. The request will only
          be granted once the covered person and the trust's investment adviser
          certify that the covered person or MEMBERS OF THEIR IMMEDIATE FAMILY
          will not advise or direct transactions. American Century must receive
          statements at least quarterly for transactions within the trust.


VII. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

     All information about Clients' SECURITIES transactions and portfolio
     holdings is confidential. You must not disclose, except as required by the
     duties of your employment, actual or contemplated SECURITIES transactions,
     portfolio holdings, portfolio characteristics or other nonpublic
     information about Clients, or the contents of any written or oral
     communication, study, report or opinion concerning any SECURITY. This does
     not apply to information which has already been publicly disclosed.


VIII. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.


     You must receive prior written approval from the General Counsel or his or
     her designee, as appropriate, to do any of the following:

     »  Negotiate or enter into any agreement on a Client's behalf with any
        business concern doing or seeking to do business with the Client if you, or
        a person related to you, has a substantial interest in the business
        concern;

     »  Enter into an agreement, negotiate or otherwise do business on the Client's
        behalf with a personal friend or a person related to you; or

        traded corporation.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


APPENDIX 2:  WHAT IS "BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP"?

A "beneficial owner" of a security is any person who, directly or indirectly,
through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise,
has or shares in the opportunity, directly or indirectly, to profit or share in
any profit derived from a purchase or sale of the security.


1.   ARE SECURITIES HELD BY FAMILY MEMBERS OR DOMESTIC PARTNERS "BENEFICIALLY
     OWNED" BY ME?

     PROBABLY. As a general rule, you are regarded as the beneficial owner of
     SECURITIES held in the name of

     »  A MEMBER OF YOUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY OR

     »  Any other person IF:

          º  You obtain from such SECURITIES benefits substantially similar to
             those of ownership. For example, if you receive or benefit from some
             of the income from the SECURITIES held by your spouse, you are the
             beneficial owner; OR

          º  You can obtain title to the SECURITIES now or in the future.


2.   ARE SECURITIES HELD BY A COMPANY I OWN AN INTEREST IN ALSO "BENEFICIALLY
     OWNED" BY ME?

     PROBABLY NOT. Owning the SECURITIES of a company does not mean you
     "beneficially own" the SECURITIES that the company itself owns. HOWEVER,
     you will be deemed to "beneficially own" the SECURITIES owned by the
     company if:

     »  You directly or beneficially own a controlling interest in or otherwise
     control the company; OR

     »  The company is merely a medium through which you, MEMBERS OF YOUR IMMEDIATE
     FAMILY, or others in a small group invest or trade in SECURITIES and the
     company has no other substantial business.


3.   ARE SECURITIES HELD IN TRUST "BENEFICIALLY OWNED" BY ME?

     MAYBE. You are deemed to "beneficially own" SECURITIES held in trust if any
     of the following is true:

     »  You or a MEMBER OF YOUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY are a trustee or have a vested
        interest in the income or corpus of the trust OR

     »  You or a MEMBER OF YOUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY are a settlor or grantor of the
        trust and have the power to revoke the trust without obtaining the consent
        of all the beneficiaries.

     A blind trust exemption from the preclearance and reporting requirements of
     the Code may be requested if you or MEMBERS OR YOUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY do not
     have authority to advise or direct SECURITIES transactions of the trust.


                                                              Appendix 2--Page 1

4.   ARE SECURITIES IN PENSION OR RETIREMENT PLANS "BENEFICIALLY OWNED" BY ME?

     MAYBE. Beneficial ownership does not include indirect interest by any
     person in portfolio SECURITIES held by a pension or retirement plan holding
     SECURITIES of an issuer whose employees generally are the beneficiaries of
     the plan.

     However, your participation in a pension or retirement plan is considered
     beneficial ownership of the portfolio SECURITIES if you can withdraw and
     trade the SECURITIES without withdrawing from the plan or you can direct
     the trading of the SECURITIES within the plan (IRAs, 401ks, etc.).


5.   EXAMPLES OF BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP

     a.   Securities Held by Family Members or Domestic Partners

     EXAMPLE 1: Tom and Mary are married. Although Mary has an independent
     source of income from a family inheritance and segregates her funds from
     those of her husband, Mary contributes to the maintenance of the family
     home. Tom and Mary have engaged in joint estate planning and have the same
     financial adviser. Since Tom and Mary's resources are clearly significantly
     directed towards their common property, they shall be deemed to be the
     beneficial owners of each other's SECURITIES.

     EXAMPLE 2: Mike's adult son David lives in Mike's home. David is
     self-supporting and contributes to household expenses. Mike is a beneficial
     owner of David's SECURITIES.

     EXAMPLE 3: Joe's mother Margaret lives alone and is financially
     independent. Joe has power of attorney over his mother's estate, pays all
     her bills and manages her investment affairs. Joe borrows freely from
     Margaret without being required to pay back funds with interest, if at all.
     Joe takes out personal loans from Margaret's bank in Margaret's name, the
     interest from such loans being paid from Margaret's account. Joe is a
     significant heir of Margaret's estate. Joe is a beneficial owner of
     Margaret's estate.

     EXAMPLE 4: Bob and Nancy are engaged. The house they share is still in
     Nancy's name only. They have separate checking accounts with an informal
     understanding that both individuals contribute to the mortgage payments and
     other common expenses. Nancy is the beneficial owner of Bob's SECURITIES.

     b.   Securities Held by a Company

     EXAMPLE 5: ABC Company is a holding company with five shareholders owning
     equal shares in the company. Although ABC Company has no business of its
     own, it has several wholly-owned subsidiaries that invest in SECURITIES.
     Stan is a shareholder of ABC Company. Stan has a beneficial interest in the
     SECURITIES owned by ABC Company's subsidiaries.

     EXAMPLE 6: XYZ Company is a large manufacturing company with many
     shareholders. Stan is a shareholder of XYZ Company. As a part of its cash
     management function, XYZ Company invests in SECURITIES. Neither Stan nor
     any MEMBERS OF HIS IMMEDIATE FAMILY are employed by XYZ Company. Stan does
     not beneficially own the SECURITIES held by XYZ Company.


                                                              Appendix 2--Page s

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


     c.   Securities Held in Trust

     EXAMPLE 7: John is trustee of a trust created for his two minor children.
     When both of John's children reach 21, each shall receive an equal share of
     the corpus of the trust. John is a beneficial owner of any SECURITIES owned
     by the trust.

     EXAMPLE 8: Jane placed SECURITIES held by her in a trust for the benefit of
     her church. Jane can revoke the trust during her lifetime. Jane is a
     beneficial owner of any SECURITIES owned by the trust.

     EXAMPLE 9: Jim is trustee of an irrevocable trust for his 21 year-old
     daughter (who does not share his home). The daughter is entitled to the
     income of the trust until she is 25 years old, and is then entitled to the
     corpus. If the daughter dies before reaching 25, Jim is entitled to the
     corpus. Jim is a beneficial owner of any SECURITIES owned by the trust.

     EXAMPLE 10: Joan's father (who does not share her home) placed SECURITIES
     in an irrevocable trust for Joan's minor children. Neither Joan nor any
     MEMBER OF HER IMMEDIATE FAMILY is the trustee of the trust. Joan is a
     beneficial owner of the SECURITIES owned by the trust. She may, however, be
     eligible for the blind trust exemption to the preclearance and reporting of
     the trust SECURITIES.

APPENDIX 3:  CODE-EXEMPT SECURITIES

Because they do not pose a likelihood for abuse, some securities, defined as
code-exempt securities, are exempt from the Code's preclearance requirements.
However, confirmations from your service providers are required in all cases
(except non- REPORTABLE MUTUAL FUNDS) and some code-exempt securities must be
disclosed on your Quarterly Transactions, Initial and Annual Holdings Reports.


1.   CODE-EXEMPT SECURITIES NOT SUBJECT TO DISCLOSURE ON YOUR QUARTERLY
     TRANSACTIONS, INITIAL AND ANNUAL HOLDINGS REPORTS:

     »  Open-end mutual funds that are not considered REPORTABLE MUTUAL FUND;,

     »  REPORTABLE MUTUAL FUNDS (Access Persons only);

     »  REPORTABLE MUTUAL FUND shares purchased through an AUTOMATIC INVESTMENT
        PLAN (including reinvested dividends);

     »  Money market mutual funds;

     »  Bank Certificates of Deposit;

     »  U.S. government securities (Treasury notes, etc.);,

     »  Commercial paper;

     »  Bankers acceptances;

     »  High quality short-term debt instruments, including repurchase agreements.
        A "high quality short-term debt instrument" means any instrument that has a
        maturity at issuance of less than 366 days and that is rated in one of the
        two highest rating categories by a nationally recognized rating
        organization.


2.   CODE-EXEMPT SECURITIES SUBJECT TO DISCLOSURE ON YOUR QUARTERLY

     INVESTMENT PLAN (Investment and Portfolio Persons only)

     »Securities which are acquired through an employer-sponsored automatic
     payroll deduction plan (only the acquisition of the security is exempt, NOT
     the sale)

     »Securities other than open-end mutual funds purchased through dividend
     reinvestment programs (only the re-investment of dividends in the security
     is exempt, NOT the sale or other purchases)

     »Commodity futures contracts for tangible goods (corn, soybeans, wheat,
     etc.) Futures contracts for financial instruments are NOT Code-exempt.

     »Futures contracts on the following:

          º  Standard & Poor's 500 Index; or

          º  Standard & Poor's 100 Index.

APPENDIX 4: HOW THE PRECLEARANCE PROCESS WORKS






Appendix 4--Page 1 AMERICAN CENTURY INVESTMENTS CODE OF ETHICS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After your request is entered into our mainframe system, it is then subjected to the following tests. STEP 1: RESTRICTED SECURITY LIST » Is the security on the Restricted Security list? IF "YES", the system will send a message to you to DENY the personal trade request. IF "NO", then your request is subject to Step 2. STEP 2: DE MINIMIS TRANSACTION TEST (THIS TEST DOES NOT APPLY TO THE TRADE REQUESTS OF PORTFOLIO AND INVESTMENT PERSONS.) » Is the security issuer's market capitalization greater than $1 billion? » Will your proposed transaction, together with your other transactions in the security for the current calendar quarter, be less than $10,000? » Does the security trade on a national securities exchange or market, such as the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) or National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (NASDAQ)? IF THE ANSWER TO ALL OF THESE QUESTIONS IS "YES", the system will generate a message and send it to you approving your proposed transaction. IF THE ANSWER TO ANY OF THESE QUESTIONS IS "NO", then your request is subject to Step 3. STEP 3: OPEN ORDER TEST » Is there an open order for that security for any Client? IF "YES", the system will send a message to you to DENY the personal trade request. IF "NO", then your request is subject to Step 4. STEP 4: FOLLOW LIST TEST » Does any account or Fund own the security? » Does the security appear on the computerized list of stocks American Century is considering to purchase for a Client? IF THE ANSWER TO BOTH OF THESE QUESTIONS IS "NO", the system will send a message to you to APPROVE your proposed transaction. IF THE ANSWER TO EITHER OF THESE QUESTIONS IS "YES", then your request is subject to Step 5. STEP 5: PRESENT INTENTIONS TEST The system sends a message to our equity trading desk in Kansas City which identifies the security described in your preclearance request. A trading desk representative will review the request for recent activity in the security. The trading desk representative may deny the request based on recent trading activity. If not denied, the trading desk will contact a representative from each of the portfolio management teams that have the security on their follow list or own the security. The Appendix 4--Page 2 AMERICAN CENTURY INVESTMENTS CODE OF ETHICS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- portfolio teams will be asked if they intend to buy or sell the security within the next five (5) business days. IF ALL OF THE PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT TEAMS RESPOND "NO", your request will be APPROVED. If ANY OF THE PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT TEAMS RESPOND "YES", your request will be DENIED. STEP 6: CHIEF INVESTMENT OFFICER REQUESTS The General Counsel or his/her designee must approve any preclearance request by ACIM's Chief Investment Officer before an APPROVAL message is generated. THE PRECLEARANCE PROCESS CAN BE CHANGED AT ANY TIME TO ENSURE THAT THE GOALS OF AMERICAN CENTURY'S CODE OF ETHICS ARE ADVANCED.

                                 CODE OF ETHICS


Effective February 21, 1998 as adopted by the Board of Directors of the
registered investment companies listed above, and amended on March 4, 2000.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                See the Appendix for a definition of "security".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I.   PURPOSE OF CODE.

     The Independent Directors' Code of Ethics establishes rules that govern
     personal activities of the directors of the registered investment companies
     listed above (the "Companies") who are not "interested" directors
     ("Independent Directors"). American Century Investment Management, Inc. and
     American Century Global Investment Management, Inc., the Companies'
     investment managers, have adopted a separate Code of Ethics which governs
     its employees, officers and directors (the "American Century Code"). The
     American Century Code and this Code are together intended to satisfy the
     requirements of Rule 17j-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940.


II.  RESTRICTIONS ON PERSONAL INVESTING ACTIVITIES.

     A.   GENERAL RULE: NO PRECLEARANCE

          As you are aware, you are prohibited by federal law from investing
          based on material nonpublic information which you receive from any
          source. You are expected to abide by the highest ethical and legal
          standards in conducting your personal securities transactions. As an
          Independent Director, you are generally not required to comply with
          special procedures designed to monitor your personal trading
          activities.

     B.   EXCEPTION TO GENERAL RULE

          You may be considered an "Access Person" under the American Century
          Code for the purpose of trading in a specific security if, in the
          ordinary course of fulfilling your official duties as an Independent
          Director, you have or should have acquired direct knowledge about a
          Company's dealings in the same security. If you have such direct
          knowledge, you will only be considered an Access Person with respect
          to that security if BOTH of the following conditions are satisfied:

          (1)  The security is held by one or more Fund Clients and is currently
               being considered for sale, OR the security is being considered
               for purchase by one or more Fund Clients; AND




American Century Capital Portfolios, Inc., et al.
                                           INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS' CODE OF ETHICS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


          (2)  You execute your transaction during the 15 day period immediately
               preceding or after the date on which, based on your direct
               knowledge, a Fund Client is expected to sell or purchase the
               security.

          You will therefore be subject to all of the requirements applicable to
          Access Persons under the American Century Code.

III. CAN THERE BE ANY EXCEPTIONS TO THE RESTRICTIONS?

     Yes. The other Independent Directors may grant limited exemptions to
     specific provisions of this Code on a case-by-case basis.


     A.   HOW TO REQUEST AN EXEMPTION

          Present your fact situation to the counsel to the Independent
          Directors detailing your situation. The counsel to the Independent
          Directors will present your proposal to the Independent Directors at a
          regular or special meeting, as he or she deems appropriate.

     B.   FACTORS CONSIDERED

          In considering your request, the other Independent Directors will
          grant your exemption request only if they are unanimously satisfied
          that:

          »  your request addresses an undue personal hardship imposed on you
             by this Code of Ethics;

          »  your situation is not contemplated by this Code of Ethics; and

          »  your exemption, if granted, would be consistent with the
             achievement of the objectives of this Code of Ethics.

     C.   EXEMPTION REPORTING

          All exemptions granted must be recorded in the minutes of the next
          meeting of the Boards of Directors of the Companies.

IV.  CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

     All information about the Companies' securities transactions, actual or
     contemplated, is confidential. You must not disclose, except as required by
     the duties of your employment, securities transactions of the Companies,
     actual or contemplated, or the contents of any written or oral
     communication, study, report or opinion concerning any security. This does
     not apply to information which has already been publicly disclosed.


V.   CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.

     As an Independent Director, you have a fiduciary duty to avoid acting on
     any matters presenting a conflict of interest that could arise from service
     as a director, officer, employee of, or as a consultant to, or any
     affiliation with, another business entity and to avoid acting in the
     presence of such a conflict, until the matter is disclosed to the other
     independent directors, who will determine whether or not the conflict could
     reflect adversely on the director's independence or would compromise the
     interests of Fund shareholders. Affiliations with banks, broker-dealers,
     investment companies and investment advisers are examples of the kinds of
     activities which could adversely affect your independence as a director of
     the Companies.

                                                                          Page 2

                                           INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS' CODE OF ETHICS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


     If you are unsure whether the service could present a conflict of interest,
     you should consult with counsel to the Independent Directors and seek
     approval from the other Independent Directors, if counsel deems such action
     appropriate.


VI.  ANNUAL QUESTIONNAIRE

     On an annual basis, you will be asked to complete a questionnaire detailing
     your business affiliations, which will be furnished to counsel to the
     Independent Directors. If your business affiliations materially change
     during the course of the year, you should notify counsel to the Independent
     Directors of the change.


VI.  WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU VIOLATE THE RULES IN THE CODE OF ETHICS?

     You may be subject to serious penalties.

     A.   THE PENALTIES WHICH MAY BE IMPOSED INCLUDE:

          »  formal warning;

          »  restriction of trading privileges;

          »  disgorgement of trading profits;

          »  fine; AND/OR

          »  formal resignation request.

     B.   Penalty Factors

          The factors which may be considered by the other Independent Directors
          when determining the appropriate penalty include, but are not limited
          to:


          »  the harm to the Companies' interests;

          »  the extent of unjust enrichment;

          »  the frequency of occurrence;

          »  the degree to which there is personal benefit from unique
             knowledge obtained through your position as Independent Director;

          »  the degree of perception of a conflict of interest;

          »  evidence of fraud, violation of law, or reckless disregard of a
             regulatory requirement; AND/OR

          »  the level of accurate, honest and timely cooperation from the
             person subject to the Code.

          If you have any questions about the Code, do not hesitate to seek
          guidance from counsel or the other Independent Directors.


                                                                          Page 3
