Calamos Timpani Small Cap Growth Mutual Fund

The chart shows the performance of the Predecessor Fund's Institutional Class, which has been adopted by the Class I shares of the Fund for periods prior to the Reorganization. The information shows you how the Predecessor Fund's performance has varied year by year and provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The average annual total return table compares the Predecessor Fund's Institutional Class performance, adopted by the Fund's Class I shares, and Class Y performance, adopted by the Fund's Class A shares and adjusted to reflect the maximum sales load of 4.75%, to that of the Russell 2000 Growth Index. "Since Inception" return shown for the Russell 2000 Growth Index is the return since the inception of the Predecessor Fund's Class Y shares. An index reflects no deduction for fees, expenses or taxes. To the extent that dividends and distributions have been paid by the Predecessor Fund, the performance information for the Predecessor Fund in the chart and table assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions. If the Predecessor Fund's investment adviser had not waived or reimbursed certain Predecessor Fund expenses during these periods, the Predecessor Fund's returns would have been lower. As always, please note that the Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) cannot predict how it will perform in the future.

10k Performance results are before taxes on fund distributions and assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Index data shown is from 3/31/11, since comparative index data is available only for full monthly periods. Source: Calamos Investments

Class I shares are offered primarily for direct investment by investors through certain tax-exempt retirement plans and by institutional clients, provided such plans or clients have assets of at least $1 million. For eligibility requirements and other available share classes see the prospectus and other Fund documents at www.calamos.com.

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 4.75%. Had it been included, the Fund's return would have been lower.
