# R (Accumulating fee-based share class)
R-class shares are not sold directly to investors, but to financial intermediaries that serve investors. The intermediary executes the purchase of the funds on behalf of the investor, as well as the sale and exchange. The Sales Charge may be modified for certain financial intermediaries who submit trades on behalf of eligible investors. As allowed in the Prospectus, Eastspring and the financial intermediaries have agreed to waive the Sales Charge for all purchases for the fee-based R share class. Always consult your financial adviser. For more about charges, see the Prospectus.
