Performance data quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Fund performance current to the most recent month-end may be lower or higher than the performance quoted and can be obtained by calling 1-800-688-LKCM. The fund imposes a 1.00% redemption fee on shares held less than 30 days, and if reflected, the fee would reduce the performance shown.
The Fund seeks current income and long-term capital appreciation.

Investments in debt securities typically decrease in value when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities.
Small-capitalization funds typically carry additional risks, since smaller companies generally have a higher risk of failure, and, historically, their stocks have experienced a greater degree of market volatility than stocks on average.
*Luther King Capital Management has contractually agreed to waive all or a portion of its management fee and/or reimburse the Fund through April 30, 2012 to maintain designated expense ratios (excluding acquired fund fees). Investment performance reflects fee waivers in effect. In the absence of such waivers, total return would be reduced. Investment performance for the last quarter is based upon net expense ratio.
