Performance data quoted represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Please refer to Important Risk Information. The principal value and return of an investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance reflected at NAV does not include the Fund's maximum front-end sales load of [Var-Max Sales Charge.MaxSalesChg]. Had it been included, the Fund's return would have been lower.

Unmanaged index returns, unlike fund returns, do not reflect fees, expenses or sales charges. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Important Fund Information

Before investing, carefully consider the Portfolio's investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. Please see the prospectus containing this and other information, which can be obtained by calling 1-800-582-6959. Read it carefully before investing. The Portfolio's shares are offered only to separate accounts of participating insurance companies and to certain retirement plans and are not offered directly to the public. This material must be preceded or accompanied by the variable contract prospectus.

An investment in the Fund is subject to risks, and you could lose money on your investment in the Fund. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. Your investment in the Fund is not a deposit in a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other government agency. The risks associated with an investment in the Fund can increase during times of significant market volatility. The Fund also has specific principal risks, which are described below. More detailed information regarding these risks can be found in the Fund's prospectus.

The principal risks of investing in the Calamos Growth and Income Portfolio include: convertible securities risk, synthetic convertible instruments risk, equity securities risk, growth stock risk, debt securities risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, default risk, high yield fixed-income securities risk, foreign securities risk, American Depositary Receipts risk, forward foreign currency contract risk, options risk, small and mid-sized company risk, liquidity risk, Rule 144A securities risk, sector risk, securities lending risk, market risk, portfolio selection risk, state regulation risk, and tax risk.

The funds' gross expense ratios as of the prospectus dated 4/30/2026 are as follows: I Shares 1.27%.

Notes

30-day SEC yield reflects the dividends and interest earned by the Fund during the 30-day period ended as of the date stated above after deducting the Fund's expenses for that same period.

Distribution yield is calculated by dividing the sum of all distributions paid by the fund over the trailing 12 months by the fund's NAV as of the date of the period presented. Distributions may include income, short-term capital gains, and long-term capital gains. Short-term and long-term capital gains represent the net trading profits realized over the trailing 12 months in the fund and are not guaranteed. Distribution Yield is based on distributions made in the past and is therefore not reflective of the fund's current portfolio.

Convertible securities risk. The value of a convertible security is influenced by changes in interest rates, with investment value declining as interest rates increase and increasing as interest rates decline. The credit standing of the issuer and other factors also, may have an effect on the convertible security's investment value.

Equity securities risk. Equity investments are subject to greater fluctuations in market value than other asset classes as a result of such factors as the issuer's business performance, investor perceptions, stock market trends and general economic conditions. Equity securities are subordinated to bonds and other debt instruments in a company's capital structure in terms of priority to corporate income and liquidation payments. The Fund may invest in preferred stocks and convertible securities of any rating, including below investment grade.

Interest Rate Risk: The value of debt securities generally decreases in periods when interest rates are rising, and interest rate changes typically have a greater effect on prices of longer-term debt securities than shorter-term debt securities.

High Yield Securities Risk: High yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality (commonly known as "junk bonds") are subject to greater levels of credit and liquidity risk and are considered speculative with respect to the issuer's continuing ability to make principal and interest payments.

Foreign Securities Risk: Investing in foreign securities involves risks not typically associated with U.S. securities, including currency exchange-rate fluctuations, political and economic instability, less public information, different regulatory and accounting standards, and less liquidity than in U.S. markets.

The Portfolio's shares can be purchased by certain pension plans and retirement arrangements and accounts permitting accumulation of funds on a tax-advantaged basis ("Retirement Plans") and by separate accounts of certain life insurance companies ("Participating Insurance Companies") offering qualified and non-qualified variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance contracts (together, "Variable Contracts"). The Portfolio's shares are not offered directly to the public. You may pay other expenses under your Variable Contract or Retirement Plan. Please read the Variable Contract's or Retirement Plan's disclosure documents to obtain that information.
