(Y and I shares available only through financial professionals)
Objective
Aquila Opportunity Growth Fund is a diversified, open-end mutual fund. Â The Fund’s objective is to provide capital appreciation by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 70% of its net assets in equity securities believed to have the potential for capital appreciation, without regard to whether they could be described as “growth” or “value” and investing in a range of market capitalizations that could include small-cap, mid-cap, and large-cap. Equity holdings of the Fund may include common stock, warrants, convertible bonds, preferred stock or a limited allocation to foreign equity.
The Fund may hold significant amounts of cash or other short-term investments in response to market volatility, while seeking to identify investment opportunities for the Fund, or for other reasons. If a significant amount of a Fund’s assets are used for cash management or defensive investing purposes, it will be more difficult for the Fund to achieve its investment objectives.
The investment strategy and process described here was initially made available to shareholders of Aquila Opportunity Growth Fund on October 11, 2010. Prior to that date, the Fund was managed under an investment strategy that differs meaningfully from the strategy pursued by the current Fund. Performance prior to that date reflects the previous investment strategy of the Fund.

How to Invest
You may invest in any of the Aquila Group of Funds through your professional financial advisor at the public offering price as described in the prospectus, or by completing the Fund’s application. The Fund offers both Front-Payment Class Shares (Class A Shares) or Level-Payment Class Shares (Class C Shares). The maximum sales charge included in the offering price of Class A Shares varies by fund. Please see the prospectus for details, or fund-specific information on this site. Class C Shares do not have a sales charge, but do have a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 1% if a redemption occurs within the first 12 months of purchase. Class F, Class I, Class T and Class Y shares are available to investors only through a professional financial advisor or a financial institution. Before investing, carefully read about and consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses, and other information found in the Fund prospectus. The prospectus is available on this site and from your financial professional, or by calling 800-437-1020.
How to Redeem
You may redeem all or part of your investment on any business day at the next-determined Net Asset Value of the Fund’s shares after acceptance of your redemption request. You should be aware that investment returns and principal value will fluctuate, so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The prospectus outlines a number of different ways you may redeem your shares. A 1% contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) applies to Class C Shares redeemed within the first 12 months of purchase.

Disclosures
Performance data represents past performance, but does not guarantee future results. Â Investment return and principal value will fluctuate; shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost; current performance may be lower or higher than the data presented. Â Class A shares have a maximum sales charge of 4.25%; Class C shares have no initial sales charge, but a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge applies to Class C shares redeemed within 12 months of their purchase date. Â Class I and Class Y shares have no initial or contingent deferred sales charge. Class A MOP (maximum offering price) returns reflect deduction of the maximum 4.25% sales charge; Class A NAV returns do not reflect deduction of the sales charge and would be lower if that charge were reflected. Â Class C returns without CDSC do not reflect deduction of the 1% CDSC applicable in the first 12 months; if applied, the CDSC would reduce the performance quoted. Â An explanation of the share classes appears in the Fund prospectus.
