The Blue Chip Fund and the First American Treasury Obligations Fund are No-Load: No front-end sales commissions or deferred sales charges (loads) are charged. Over 40% of all mutual funds impose these marketing charges that are ultimately paid by the shareholder. These marketing charges are either: (1) a front-end fee or load in which up to 5% of a shareholders assets are deducted from the original investment (some funds even charge a fee when a shareholder reinvests capital gains or dividends); or (2) a back-end penalty fee or load which is typically deducted from a shareholders account if a shareholder redeems within five years of the original investment. These fees reduce a shareholders return. The Blue Chip Fund and First American Treasury Obligations Fund are No-Load as they do not have these extra charges.
