[[AS_OF_DATE]] | All values in [[CURRENCY]] unless otherwise specified | Performance Inception: [[INCEPTION_DATE]]

The performance quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Net-of-fees performance is measured from inception. Mutual fund performance fluctuates and currently may be lower than stated. An investor may obtain performance data current to the most recent month-end online at www.LazardAssetManagement.com. The investment return and principal value of the Portfolio will fluctuate; an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Returns of certain share classes reflect reimbursement of expenses as described in the prospectus. Had expenses not been reimbursed, returns would have been lower and the expense ratio would have been higher.

As of June 28, 2013, the Portfolio changed its name from “Lazard US High Yield Portfolio” to “Lazard US Corporate Income Portfolio.” As of June 28, 2013, the BofA Merrill Lynch BB-B US Cash Pay Non-Distressed High Yield Index replaced the BofA Merrill Lynch US High Yield Index, to reflect the Portfolio’s focus on higher-yielding securities that may be considered “better quality.”

The BofA Merrill Lynch BB-B US Cash Pay Non-Distressed High Yield Index is constructed to mirror the BB-B Non-Distressed sector of the public high yield corporate debt market and is a subset of the Merrill Lynch High Yield, Cash Pay Index.

The BofA Merrill Lynch US High Yield Index is a broad-based index consisting of all US dollar–denominated high-yield corporate bonds with a minimum outstanding amount of $100 million and maturity of no less than one year.

The index is unmanaged and has no fees. One cannot invest directly in an index.

Performance for periods shorter than one year has not been annualized. Performance presented net of fees. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.

Beta is a relative measure of the sensitivity of a fund's return to changes in the benchmark's return. The beta of the fund versus its benchmark is the amount (and direction) the fund has historically moved when the benchmark moved by one unit.

Standard deviation measures the dispersion or "spread" of individual observations around their mean. Standard deviation of returns measures a fund's historical volatility, where a higher number is evidence of greater volatility (i.e., higher risk).

Effective Duration is a measure of the sensitivity of a fund’s value to changes in interest rates and accounts for any option features embedded in the fund’s holdings.

Effective Maturity is a measure of the average expected maturity of a fund’s holdings and accounts for actual maturities as well as expected early redemptions.

Unless otherwise noted, characteristics are trailing 12 months.

Dividend yield (%) is calculated by dividing dividends paid by the Fund’s current holdings over the trailing 12 months by the Fund’s NAV.

Understanding Investment Risk
An investment in bonds carries risk. If interest rates rise, bond prices usually decline. The longer a bond’s maturity, the greater the impact a change in interest rates can have on its price. If you do not hold a bond until maturity, you may experience a gain or loss when you sell. Bonds also carry the risk of default, which is the risk that the issuer is unable to make further income and principal payments. Other risks, including inflation risk, call risk, and prepayment risk, also apply. High yield securities (also referred to as “junk bonds”) inherently have a higher degree of market risk, default risk, and credit risk.
