FOR SHAREHOLDERS OF
JANUS ADVISER GROWTH AND INCOME FUND
(JANUS LOGO)

May 11, 2009

Dear Shareholder:

The Board of Trustees for Janus Adviser Growth and Income Fund ("JAD Growth
and Income Fund"), a series of Janus Adviser Series ("JAD Trust"), recently
authorized Janus Capital Management LLC ("Janus Capital") to reorganize JAD
Growth and Income Fund with and into Janus Growth and Income Fund ("JIF Growth
and Income Fund," and together with JAD Growth and Income Fund, the "Funds" and
each, a "Fund''), a series of Janus Investment Fund (the "JIF Trust") (the
"Reorganization"). It is expected that the Reorganization will be completed on
or about July 2, 2009 (the "Closing Date") at which time you will receive shares
of JIF Growth and Income Fund approximately equivalent in dollar value to your
shares in JAD Growth and Income Fund as of the Closing Date.

You are not being asked to vote on, or take any other action in connection
with the Reorganization. Immediately after the Closing Date, your assets will
automatically be invested in JIF Growth and Income Fund, which has the same
investment objective, strategies, policies and risks as JAD Growth and Income
Fund, and both Funds are managed by the same portfolio manager.

As explained in greater detail below and in the attached materials, the
Reorganization is part of a larger effort by Janus Capital to reorganize and
simplify its mutual fund platform. Janus Capital believes that these efforts
will provide both meaningful short- and long-term benefits to Janus fund
shareholders, and will enable Janus Capital to manage and operate its mutual
fund platform more effectively and more efficiently. The following provides a
summary of the broad effort Janus Capital is undertaking, and the actions Janus
Capital will be executing in the months ahead.

Janus Capital has historically organized its retail mutual funds into two
separate and distinct corporate structures, called "trusts." The original mutual
fund trust, the JIF Trust, was designed to offer shares using only one no-load
pricing model to primarily meet the needs of the self-directed investor. In
2000, your trust, the JAD Trust, was introduced to offer multi-class pricing to
facilitate the sale of shares of Janus mutual funds through Janus Capital's
network of third-party intermediaries. The two trusts have very similar product
offerings that are managed by the same portfolio managers or investment teams
and backed by the same research teams. In response to changing market conditions
and investor movement towards advice-driven channels, Janus Capital believes
that it is in the best interests of all fund shareholders to reorganize your
trust and create one combined mutual fund platform with multi-share class
pricing that is designed to meet the needs of various types of investors. To
that end, Janus Capital has proposed, and the Board of Trustees of the Janus
funds has approved, merging each fund of the JAD Trust into the similarly
managed fund in the JIF Trust, including the merger of JAD Growth and Income
Fund into JIF Growth and Income Fund.

The impact of the Reorganization on you and your Fund is discussed in
detail in the attached materials. As a general matter, Janus Capital's efforts
to reorganize and simplify its mutual fund platform are expected to benefit
Janus fund shareholders in the following ways:

- Janus Capital will have the opportunity to operate its platform more
efficiently, providing the potential to reduce possible inefficiencies
arising from having similarly managed mutual funds in the same fund
complex;

- As a result of the reorganizations, certain Janus funds will have larger
asset bases, which may result in the elimination of duplicative expenses
and lead to lower expense ratios in the future; and

- Janus Capital's evolving distribution model will permit different types
of shareholders to invest in the same Janus fund providing shareholders
more investment options and the opportunity to invest in funds that have
a more stable asset base.

In addition, each merger, including the Reorganization, is designed to
qualify as a tax-free reorganization, so fund shareholders should not realize a
tax gain or loss as a direct result of the merger, nor will any fund shareholder
pay any fees related to the merger.

Additional details about the Reorganization are described in the enclosed
Q&A and Prospectus/Information Statement. For information about other available
options, please contact your broker-dealer, plan sponsor, or financial
intermediary or call a Janus representative at 1-800-525-0020.

We value the trust and confidence you have placed with us and look forward
to continuing our relationship with you.

Sincerely,

/s/ Robin C. Beery

Robin C. Beery

Chief Executive Officer and President of

Janus Adviser Series

INTRODUCTION

This Prospectus/Information Statement is being furnished to shareholders of
Janus Adviser Growth and Income Fund ("JAD Growth and Income Fund"), a series of
Janus Adviser Series (the "JAD Trust"), in connection with an Agreement and Plan
of Reorganization (the "Plan"). Under the Plan, shareholders of JAD Growth and
Income Fund will receive shares of Janus Growth and Income Fund ("JIF Growth and
Income Fund," and together with JAD Growth and Income Fund, the "Funds" and
each, a "Fund''), a corresponding series of Janus Investment Fund (the "JIF
Trust") (the "Reorganization"). It is expected that the Reorganization will be
completed on or about July 2, 2009 (the "Closing Date"). As described more fully
in this Prospectus/Information Statement, the Reorganization is one of several
reorganizations that will take place among various Janus funds.

Pursuant to the Plan, all or substantially all of the assets of JAD Growth
and Income Fund will be transferred to JIF Growth and Income Fund, a Fund also
managed by Janus Capital Management LLC ("Janus Capital"), in exchange for
shares of beneficial interest of JIF Growth and Income Fund and the assumption
by JIF Growth and Income Fund of all of the liabilities of JAD Growth and Income
Fund, as described more fully below. As a result of the Reorganization, each
shareholder of JAD Growth and Income Fund will receive a number of full and
fractional shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund approximately equal in value to
their holdings in JAD Growth and Income Fund as of the Closing Date. After the
Reorganization is completed, JAD Growth and Income Fund will be liquidated.

JIF Growth and Income Fund is a series of the JIF Trust, an open-end,
registered management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business
trust. JAD Growth and Income Fund is a series of the JAD Trust, an open-end,
registered management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory
trust. JAD Growth and Income Fund and JIF Growth and Income Fund are each
classified as a diversified

series within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
"1940 Act"). The investment objective of both JAD Growth and Income Fund and JIF
Growth and Income Fund is to seek long-term capital growth and current income.

Janus Capital will remain the investment adviser of JIF Growth and Income
Fund after the Reorganization. Janus Capital is responsible for the day-to-day
management of JAD Growth and Income Fund's and JIF Growth and Income Fund's
investment portfolios and furnishes continuous advice and recommendations
concerning each Fund's investments. As one of the larger mutual fund sponsors in
the United States, Janus Capital sponsored 73 mutual funds and had approximately
$110.9 billion in assets under management as of March 31, 2009. The
Reorganization will offer shareholders continuity in portfolio management while
giving them continued access to Janus Capital's experience and resources in
managing mutual funds.

This Prospectus/Information Statement, which you should read carefully and
retain for future reference, sets forth concisely the information that you
should know about JIF Growth and Income Fund, JAD Growth and Income Fund and the
Reorganization. This Prospectus/Information Statement is being mailed on or
about May 15, 2009.

SYNOPSIS

This Prospectus/Information Statement provides a brief overview of the key
features and other matters typically of concern to shareholders affected by a
reorganization between mutual funds. These responses are qualified in their
entirety by the remainder of this Prospectus/Information Statement, which you
should read carefully because it contains additional information and further
details regarding the Reorganization. The description of the Reorganization is
qualified by reference to the full text of the Plan, which is attached as
Appendix A.

Q. WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE REORGANIZATION?

A. At a meeting held on March 12, 2009, the Board of Trustees of the JAD Trust
approved the Plan which authorizes the reorganization of JAD Growth and
Income Fund with and into JIF Growth and Income Fund, with JIF Growth and
Income Fund being the surviving entity. JAD Growth and Income Fund is a
series of the JAD Trust and JIF Growth and Income Fund is a series of the
JIF Trust. Each Fund is advised by Janus Capital. You are receiving this
Prospectus/Information Statement because you are a shareholder of JAD
Growth and Income Fund and will be impacted by the Reorganization.

Immediately after the Closing Date, JAD Growth and Income Fund investors
will own a number of full and fractional shares of JIF Growth and Income
Fund approximately equivalent in dollar value to their shares in JAD Growth
and Income Fund at the time of the Reorganization. Specifically, all or
substantially all of the assets of JAD Growth and Income Fund will be
transferred to JIF Growth and Income Fund solely in exchange for shares of
JIF Growth and Income Fund with a value approximately equal to the value of
JAD Growth and Income Fund's assets net of liabilities, and the assumption
by JIF Growth and Income Fund of all liabilities of JAD Growth and Income
Fund. Immediately following the transfer, the shares of JIF Growth and
Income Fund received by JAD Growth and Income Fund will be distributed pro
rata to JAD Growth and Income Fund shareholders of record as of the Closing
Date (on or about July 2, 2009). After the Reorganization is completed, JAD
Growth and Income Fund will be liquidated. The Reorganization is
conditioned upon receipt of an opinion of counsel that the Reorganization
qualifies as a tax-free reorganization, and other conditions as outlined in
the Plan.

Q. WHAT DID THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES CONSIDER IN DETERMINING THAT THE
REORGANIZATION IS IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF JAD GROWTH AND INCOME FUND?

A. The Board of Trustees of the JAD Trust concluded that the Reorganization is
in the best interests of JAD Growth and Income Fund after consideration of
the following factors, among others:

- The Reorganization is part of a larger strategic repositioning of Janus
Capital's distribution model for Janus mutual funds that is designed to
offer certain potential benefits to Fund shareholders that are not
currently available, including a more diverse Fund shareholder base, the
potential for a more stable level of Fund

assets, and access to a wider range of Janus funds with differing
investment strategies.
- The current conditions and trends in the securities markets and related
trends in the investment management business, and their current and
potential impact on Janus Capital, the JAD Trust and Fund shareholders.

- JAD Growth and Income Fund has the same investment objective, strategies,
policies and risks as JIF Growth and Income Fund, and the two Funds are
managed by the same portfolio manager.

- The two Funds have similar historical performance.

- Shareholders of each Fund will have the opportunity to invest in a larger
Fund and potentially benefit from long-term economies of scale that may
result from the Reorganization.

- Fund expenses are not expected to increase materially as a result of the
Reorganization, and Janus Capital anticipates that in the future, the
elimination of some duplicative expenses and the opportunity for
economies of scale may result in lower future fund expenses (other than
management fees).

- Both Funds have the same contractual investment advisory fee rate
(excluding any fee waivers).

- The expense limitation agreements applicable to each Fund which, after
giving effect to fee waivers after the Reorganization, may result in
current JAD Growth and Income Fund shareholders paying lower fees in the
short-term, and provides greater longer term certainty with respect to
total expense ratios.
- The benefits of the Reorganization to Janus Capital and its affiliates,
including, among other things, that Janus Capital should derive greater
efficiency, in terms of portfolio management and operations, by managing
a single fund rather than two separate funds with substantially the same
investment objective, strategies, policies and risks.
- The Reorganization would not dilute the interests of either Fund's
current shareholders.

- The impact of the Reorganization on the ability of JIF Growth and Income
Fund to benefit from using a portion of the realized capital losses
generated by JAD Growth and Income Fund and JIF Growth and Income Fund,
as applicable.

- The Reorganization, for each Fund and its shareholders, is expected to be
tax-free in nature.

- JAD Growth and Income Fund's shareholders will not pay any fees of the
Reorganization, and immediately after the Reorganization, the full and
fractional value of their shares in JIF Growth and Income Fund will be
equal to the full and fractional value of their JAD Growth and Income
Fund holdings immediately prior to the Reorganization.

Q. WHAT ARE THE SIMILARITIES BETWEEN THE FUNDS?

A. Both Funds have the same investment objective of seeking long-term capital
growth and current income. Each Fund has the same investment strategies and
risks. Each Fund pursues its investment objective by normally emphasizing
investments in common stocks. Each Fund will normally invest up to 75% of
its assets in equity

securities selected primarily for their growth potential, and at least 25%
of its assets in securities the portfolio manager believes have income
potential. Eligible equity securities in which each Fund may invest
include: domestic and foreign common stocks; preferred stocks; securities
convertible into common stocks or preferred stocks, such as convertible
preferred stocks, bonds, and debentures; and other securities with equity
characteristics.

Further information comparing the investment objectives, strategies and
restrictions is included below under "Investment Objectives, Strategies,
Restrictions and Risks."

Q. HOW DO THE FUNDS COMPARE IN SIZE?

A. As of October 31, 2008, JIF Growth and Income Fund's net assets were
approximately $3.3 billion and JAD Growth and Income Fund's net assets were
approximately $94.9 million. The asset size of each Fund fluctuates on a
daily basis and the asset size of JIF Growth and Income Fund after the
Reorganization may be larger or smaller than the combined assets of the
Funds as of October 31, 2008. More current total net asset information is
available on janus.com/info.

Q. WILL THE REORGANIZATION RESULT IN A HIGHER INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE RATE
UNDER THE ADVISORY AGREEMENT?

A. No. The investment advisory fee rate payable under the advisory agreements
for JAD Growth and Income Fund and JIF Growth and Income Fund is currently
the same, 0.62% per annum of average daily net assets.

Pro forma fee, expense, and financial information is included in this
Prospectus/Information Statement.

Q. WILL THE REORGANIZATION RESULT IN HIGHER FUND EXPENSES?

A. Based on October 31, 2008 assets (and assuming the Reorganization occurred
on October 31, 2008), the projected total expense ratio of JIF Growth and
Income Fund (following completion of the Reorganization) is slightly lower
than the current expense ratio for JAD Growth and Income Fund. Janus
Capital also anticipates that over time, as the result of the
Reorganization, the elimination of some duplicative expenses and the
opportunity for economies of scale may result in further lowering JIF
Growth and Income Fund's other expense ratio (other than management fee
ratio). Following the completion of the Reorganization, JIF Growth and
Income Fund will have a total operating expense limit (0.73%) which is
lower than the current expense limitation of JAD Growth and Income Fund
(0.99%).

Pro forma fee, expense, and financial information is included in this
Prospectus/Information Statement.

Q. WHAT ARE THE FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REORGANIZATION?

A. The Reorganization is expected to qualify as a tax-free transaction for
federal income tax purposes and will not take place unless counsel provides
an opinion to that effect. Shareholders should not recognize any capital
gain or loss as a direct

result of the Reorganization. As a result of the Reorganization, however,
JAD Growth and Income Fund and/or JIF Growth and Income Fund may lose the
ability to utilize a portion of realized capital losses that might have
been used to offset or defer gains on sales of portfolio securities under
some circumstances. If you choose to redeem or exchange your shares before
or after the Reorganization, you may realize a taxable gain or loss;
therefore, consider consulting a tax adviser before doing so. In addition,
prior to the Closing Date you may receive a distribution of ordinary income
or capital gains of JAD Growth and Income Fund.

Q. WILL THE SHAREHOLDER SERVICES PROVIDED BY JANUS CAPITAL CHANGE?

A. No. Janus Capital manages both JAD Growth and Income Fund and JIF Growth
and Income Fund. The administrator, custodian, transfer agent, and
distributor are the same for the Funds and will not change as a result of
the Reorganization. Following the Reorganization, shareholders of JAD
Growth and Income Fund will have the same purchase and redemption
privileges and expanded exchange privileges given the additional available
fund offerings in the JIF Trust. Please consult your financial intermediary
for information on any services provided by them to the Funds.

Q. ARE THERE ANY DIFFERENCES IN SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES OF A FUND
UNDER THE JAD TRUST VERSUS THE JIF TRUST?

A. Shareholders of the JAD Trust (your current trust) and shareholders of the
JIF Trust (the trust into which JAD Growth and Income Fund is reorganizing)
have similar rights and privileges under their respective trust documents
and state laws. As a result, the Reorganization is not expected to have any
substantial effect on the rights of shareholders. Several differences in
the trusts are worth noting however. Under the JAD Trust, subject to making
certain determinations, the Board of Trustees may terminate the JAD Trust
or any fund of the JAD Trust without seeking shareholder approval. Under
the JIF Trust, shareholder approval is required to terminate the JIF Trust,
but the Board of Trustees may merge, liquidate or reorganize a fund of the
JIF Trust without seeking shareholder approval, if it is in accordance with
legal requirements such as the 1940 Act requirements. The JAD Trust,
however, is subject to more restrictive requirements with respect to
mergers, liquidations and reorganizations than it is permitted under the
1940 Act. In addition, under the JAD Trust, shareholders of each Fund are
entitled to one vote for each full share held and fractional votes for
fractional shares held. Under the JIF Trust, each holder of a whole or
fractional share held in a Fund is entitled to one vote for each whole
dollar and a proportionate fractional vote for each fractional dollar of
net asset value standing in the shareholders' name.

Q. WILL THERE BE ANY SALES LOAD, COMMISSION OR OTHER TRANSACTIONAL FEE IN
CONNECTION WITH THE REORGANIZATION?

A. No. There will be no sales load, commission or other transactional fee in
connection with the Reorganization. The full and fractional value of shares
of JAD Growth and Income Fund will be exchanged for full and fractional
shares of JIF Growth and

Income Fund having approximately equal value, without any sales load,
commission or other transactional fee being imposed.

Q. CAN I STILL ADD TO MY EXISTING JAD GROWTH AND INCOME FUND ACCOUNT UNTIL THE
REORGANIZATION?

A. Yes. JAD Growth and Income Fund shareholders may continue to make
additional investments until the Closing Date (anticipated to be on or
about July 2, 2009). However, the Board of Trustees of the JAD Trust may
determine to temporarily limit future investments in JAD Growth and Income
Fund prior to the Closing Date to ensure a smooth transition of shareholder
accounts into JIF Growth and Income Fund.

Q. WILL EITHER FUND PAY FEES ASSOCIATED WITH THE REORGANIZATION?

A. No. Janus Capital will pay those fees, including legal fees and costs
associated with mailing of this Prospectus/Information Statement.

Q. WHEN WILL THE REORGANIZATION TAKE PLACE?

A. The Reorganization will occur on or about July 2, 2009. Shortly after
completion of the Reorganization, affected shareholders will receive a
confirmation statement reflecting their new Fund account number and number
of shares owned.

Q. WHAT IF I WANT TO EXCHANGE MY SHARES INTO ANOTHER FUND IN THE JAD TRUST
PRIOR TO THE REORGANIZATION?

A. You may exchange your shares into another fund in the JAD Trust before the
Closing Date (on or about July 2, 2009) in accordance with your pre-
existing exchange privileges by contacting your broker-dealer, plan
sponsor, or financial intermediary or by calling a Janus representative at
1-800-525-0020. If you choose to exchange your shares of JAD Growth and
Income Fund for another Janus fund, your request will be treated as a
normal exchange of shares and will be a taxable transaction unless your
shares are held in a tax-deferred account, such as an individual retirement
account ("IRA"). Exchanges may be subject to minimum investment
requirements and redemption fees.

Please note that all other funds in the JAD Trust are also subject to
reorganization with and into the JIF Trust or will be liquidated. So, if
you exchange your shares with and into another fund in the JAD Trust, as a
shareholder of that fund, you will also be participating in a
reorganization of that fund with and into a similarly-managed fund in the
JIF Trust or your shares will be liquidated. In addition, if you purchase
shares of a fund in the JAD Trust just before a distribution, which is
expected to occur prior to the Reorganization for each of those funds, you
will pay the full price for the shares and receive a portion of the
purchase price back as a taxable distribution (unless your shares are held
in a qualified tax-deferred plan or account). This is referred to as
"buying a dividend."

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, STRATEGIES, RESTRICTIONS AND RISKS

Both Funds are designed for long-term investors who primarily seek growth
of capital and who can tolerate the greater risks associated with common stock
investments. Although the Funds may also emphasize some degree of income, they
are not designed for investors who desire a certain level of income. The Funds
have the same investment objective, principal investment strategies and risks,
which are discussed in detail below. The Funds also have the same fundamental
and non-fundamental investment policies and restrictions, a description of each
of these investment policies and restrictions is included in each Fund's
Statement of Additional Information.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

Each Fund's investment objective is to seek long-term capital growth and
current income. Each Fund's Board of Trustees may change this objective or the
Fund's principal investment strategies without a shareholder vote. Each Fund
will notify its shareholders in writing at least 60 days before making any
change to the investment objective or principal investment strategies it
considers material. If there is a material change to a Fund's objective or
principal investment strategies, you should consider whether the Fund remains an
appropriate investment for you. There is no guarantee that a Fund will achieve
its investment objective.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

Each Fund pursues its investment objective by normally emphasizing
investments in common stocks. Each Fund will normally invest up to 75% of its
assets in equity securities selected primarily for their growth potential and at
least 25% of its assets in securities the portfolio manager believes have income
potential. Eligible equity securities in which the Funds may invest include:

- domestic and foreign common stocks
- preferred stocks
- securities convertible into common stocks or preferred stocks, such as
convertible preferred stocks, bonds, and debentures
- other securities with equity characteristics

Equity securities may make up part or all of the income component if they
currently pay dividends or the portfolio manager believes they have potential
for increasing or commencing dividend payments. The Funds are not designed for
investors who need consistent income, and each Fund's investment strategies
could result in significant fluctuations of income.

The portfolio manager, who is the same for each Fund, applies a "bottom up"
approach in choosing investments. In other words, the portfolio manager looks at
companies one at a time to determine if a company is an attractive investment
opportunity and if it is consistent with each Fund's investment policies. If the
portfolio manager is unable to find such investments, each Fund's uninvested
assets may be held in cash or similar investments, subject to the Fund's
specific investment policies.

Within the parameters of its specific investment policies, each Fund may
invest in foreign equity and debt securities, which may include investments in
emerging markets.

Within the parameters of its specific investment policies, each Fund may
invest its assets in derivatives (by taking long and/or short positions). Each
Fund may use derivatives for different purposes, including hedging (to offset
risks associated with an investment, currency exposure, or market conditions)
and to earn income and enhance returns.

For more information on the Funds' investment techniques and related risks,
please see Appendix B.

PRINCIPAL RISK FACTORS OF INVESTING IN THE FUNDS

Each Fund may invest in various types of securities or use certain
investment techniques to achieve its investment objective of long-term capital
growth and current income. The following is a summary of the principal risks
associated with such securities and investment techniques. Each Fund has the
same investment objective, strategies and policies, so the principal risks are
the same for each Fund. Additional information about these risks is included in
each Fund's Prospectus. As with any security, an investment in either Fund
involves certain risks, including loss of principal. The fact that a particular
risk is not identified does not mean that a Fund, as part of its overall
investment strategy, does not invest or is precluded from investing in
securities that give rise to that risk. Information about additional investment
techniques that the Funds may utilize and related risks is included in Appendix
B.

RISK FACTORS OF THE FUNDS

The biggest risk for each Fund is that the Fund's returns may vary, and you
could lose money. Each Fund is designed for long-term investors seeking an
equity portfolio, including common stocks. Common stocks tend to be more
volatile than many other investment choices.

MARKET RISK. The value of each Fund's portfolio may decrease if the value
of an individual company or multiple companies in the portfolio decreases or if
the portfolio manager's belief about a company's intrinsic worth is incorrect.
Regardless of how well individual companies perform, the value of each Fund's
portfolio could also decrease if there are deteriorating economic or market
conditions, including, but not limited to, a general decline in prices on the
stock markets, a general decline in real estate markets, a decline in
commodities prices, or if the market favors different types of securities than
the types of securities in which the Fund invests. If the value of a Fund's
portfolio decreases, the Fund's net asset value ("NAV") will also decrease,
which means if you sell your shares in the Fund you may lose money.

It is also important to note that recent events in the equity and fixed-
income markets have resulted, and may continue to result, in an unusually high
degree of volatility in the markets, both domestic and international. These
events and the resulting market upheavals may have an adverse effect on each
Fund such as a decline in the value

and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, unusually high and
unanticipated levels of redemptions, an increase in portfolio turnover, a
decrease in NAV, and an increase in Fund expenses. Because the situation is
unprecedented and widespread, it may also be unusually difficult to identify
both investment risks and opportunities and could limit or preclude a Fund's
ability to achieve its investment objective. The market's behavior is
unpredictable and it is impossible to predict whether or for how long these
conditions will continue. Therefore, it is important to understand that the
value of your investment may fall, sometimes sharply, and you could lose money.

GROWTH SECURITIES RISK. Each Fund invests in companies after accessing
their growth potential. Securities of growth companies may be more volatile than
other stocks. If the portfolio manager's perception of a company's growth
potential is not realized, the securities purchased may not perform as expected,
reducing the Fund's return. In addition, because different types of stocks tend
to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions,
"growth" stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other
types of securities.

FIXED-INCOME SECURITIES RISK. The income component of each Fund's holdings
may include fixed-income securities. Typically, the values of fixed-income
securities change inversely with interest rates. Therefore, a fundamental risk
of fixed-income securities is that their value will generally decline as
prevailing interest rates rise which may cause the Fund's NAV to likewise
decrease, and vice versa. How specific fixed-income securities may react to
changes in interest rates will depend on the specific characteristics of each
security. For example, while securities with longer maturities tend to produce
higher yields, they also tend to be more sensitive to changes in prevailing
interest rates and are therefore more volatile than shorter-term securities and
are subject to greater market fluctuations as a result of changes in interest
rates. Fixed-income securities are also subject to credit risk, which is the
risk that the credit strength of an issuer of a fixed-income security will
weaken and/or that the issuer will be unable to make timely principal and
interest payments and that the security may go into default. In addition, there
is the risk that during periods of falling interest rates, certain fixed-income
securities with higher interest rates, such as mortgage- and asset-backed
securities, may be prepaid by their issuers thereby reducing the amount of
interest payments and may result in a Fund having to reinvest its proceeds in
lower yielding securities. Collateral related to such investments also may be
subject to a higher degree of credit risk, valuation risk, and liquidity risk.

FOREIGN EXPOSURE RISK. Each Fund may have significant exposure to foreign
markets, including emerging markets, which can be more volatile than the U.S.
markets. As a result, a Fund's returns and NAV may be affected to a large degree
by fluctuations in currency exchange rates or political or economic conditions
in a particular country. A market swing in one or more countries or regions
where a Fund has invested a significant amount of its assets may have a greater
effect on the Fund's performance than it would in a more geographically
diversified portfolio. Each Fund's investments in emerging market countries may
involve risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks of investing in more
developed countries.

DERIVATIVES RISK. Derivatives can be highly volatile and involve risks in
addition to the risks of the underlying referenced securities. Gains or losses
from a derivative can be substantially greater than the derivative's original
cost, and can therefore involve leverage. Derivatives can be complex instruments
and may involve analysis that differs from that required for other investment
types used by a Fund. If the value of a derivative does not correlate well with
the particular market or other asset class to which the derivative is intended
to provide exposure, the derivative may not have the anticipated effect.
Derivatives can also reduce the opportunity for gain or result in losses by
offsetting positive returns in other investments. Derivatives can be less liquid
than other types of investments. Derivatives entail the risk that the
counterparty will default on its payment obligations to a Fund. If the
counterparty to a derivative transaction defaults, a Fund would risk the loss of
the net amount of the payments that it contractually is entitled to receive. To
the extent each Fund enters into short derivative positions, the Fund may be
exposed to risks similar to those associated with short sales, including the
risk that the Fund's losses are theoretically unlimited.

An investment in each Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government
agency.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The following questions and answers are designed to help you better
understand each Fund's principal investment strategies.

1. HOW ARE COMMON STOCKS SELECTED?

Unless its investment objective or policies prescribe otherwise, each Fund
may invest substantially all of its assets in common stocks. The portfolio
manager generally takes a "bottom up" approach to selecting companies. This
means that he seeks to identify individual companies with earnings growth
potential that may not be recognized by the market at large. The portfolio
manager makes this assessment by looking at companies one at a time, regardless
of size, country of organization, place of principal business activity, or other
similar selection criteria. Each Fund may sell a holding if, among other things,
the security reaches the portfolio manager's price target, if the company has a
deterioration of fundamentals such as failing to meet key operating benchmarks,
or if the portfolio manager finds a better investment opportunity. Each Fund may
also sell a holding to meet redemptions.

Each Fund may emphasize varying degrees of income. The portfolio manager
may consider dividend-paying characteristics to a greater degree in selecting
common stocks.

2. ARE THE SAME CRITERIA USED TO SELECT FOREIGN SECURITIES?

Yes. The portfolio manager seeks companies that meet the selection
criteria, regardless of where a company is located. Foreign securities are
generally selected on a stock-by-stock basis without regard to any defined
allocation among countries or

geographic regions. However, certain factors, such as expected levels of
inflation, government policies influencing business conditions, the outlook for
currency relationships, and prospects for economic growth among countries,
regions, or geographic areas, may warrant greater consideration in selecting
foreign securities. There are no limitations on the countries in which each Fund
may invest, and each Fund may at times have significant foreign exposure,
including exposure in emerging markets.

3. HOW ARE ASSETS ALLOCATED BETWEEN THE GROWTH AND INCOME COMPONENTS OF EACH
FUND'S PORTFOLIO?

Each Fund shifts assets to varying degrees between the growth and income
components of its portfolio holdings based on the portfolio manager's analyses
of relevant market, financial, and economic conditions. If the portfolio manager
believes that growth securities will provide better returns than the yields then
available or expected on income-producing securities, each Fund will place a
greater emphasis on the growth component. Each Fund's growth component will
normally be up to 75% of its net assets. In addition, each Fund's income
component may consist of dividend-paying stocks which exhibit growth
characteristics.

4. WHAT TYPES OF SECURITIES MAKE UP THE GROWTH COMPONENT OF EACH FUND'S
PORTFOLIO?

The growth component of each Fund's portfolio is expected to consist
primarily of common stocks, but may also include preferred stocks, convertible
securities, or other securities selected primarily for their growth potential.
Each Fund may also utilize swaps as a means to gain exposure to certain common
stocks.

5. WHAT TYPES OF SECURITIES MAKE UP THE INCOME COMPONENT OF EACH FUND'S
PORTFOLIO?

Each Fund's income component will consist largely of equities and other
securities that the portfolio manager believes have income potential. Such
securities may include equity securities, convertible securities, equity
derivatives, and all types of debt securities.

Equity securities may be included in the income component of each Fund if
they currently pay dividends or the portfolio manager believes they have the
potential for either increasing their dividends or commencing dividends, if none
are currently paid. Accordingly, each Fund's income component may also exhibit
growth characteristics. Each fund's income component may consist of structured
securities such as equity-linked structured notes. An investment in equity-
linked notes creates exposure to the credit risk of the issuing financial
institution, as well as to the market risk of the underlying securities. There
is no guaranteed return of principal with these securities, and the appreciation
potential of these securities may be limited by a maximum payment or call right.
In certain cases, equity-linked notes may be more volatile and less liquid than
less complex securities or other types of fixed-income securities. Such
securities

may exhibit price behavior that does not correlate with other fixed-income
securities. Equity-linked structured notes are further described in Appendix B.

6. HOW COULD INTEREST RATES AFFECT THE VALUE OF MY INVESTMENT?

Generally, a fixed-income security will increase in value when prevailing
interest rates fall and decrease in value when prevailing interest rates rise.
Longer-term securities are generally more sensitive to interest rate changes
than shorter-term securities, but they generally offer higher yields to
compensate investors for the associated risks. High-yield bond prices and
floating rate debt security prices are generally less directly responsive to
interest rate changes than investment grade issues or comparable fixed rate
securities, and may not always follow this pattern. The income component of each
Fund's holdings may include fixed-income securities.

7. WHAT IS A HIGH-YIELD/HIGH-RISK BOND?

A high-yield/high-risk bond (also called a "junk" bond) is a bond rated
below investment grade by major rating agencies (i.e., BB+ or lower by Standard
& Poor's Ratings Service ("Standard & Poor's") and Fitch, Inc. ("Fitch"), or Ba
or lower by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's")) or is an unrated bond
of similar quality. It presents greater risk of default (the failure to make
timely interest and principal payments) than higher quality bonds.

8. WHAT ARE U.S. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES?

Each Fund may invest in U.S. Government securities. U.S. Government
securities include those issued directly by the U.S. Treasury and those issued
or guaranteed by various U.S. Government agencies and instrumentalities. Some
government securities are backed by the "full faith and credit" of the United
States. Other government securities are backed only by the rights of the issuer
to borrow from the U.S. Treasury. Others are supported by the discretionary
authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the obligations. Certain other
government securities are supported only by the credit of the issuer. For
securities not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States, each
Fund must look principally to the agency or instrumentality issuing or
guaranteeing the securities for repayment and may not be able to assert a claim
against the United States if the agency or instrumentality does not meet its
commitment. Although they are high-quality, such securities may involve
increased risk of loss of principal and interest compared to government debt
securities that are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States.

RISKS

Because each Fund may invest substantially all of its assets in common
stocks, the main risk is the risk that the value of the stocks a Fund holds
might decrease in response to the activities of an individual company or in
response to general market and/or economic conditions. If this occurs, a Fund's
share price may also decrease.

Each Fund's performance may also be significantly affected, positively or
negatively, by certain types of investments, such as foreign (non-U.S.)
securities, derivative investments, non-investment grade bonds ("junk bonds"),
initial public offerings ("IPOs"), or securities of companies with relatively
small market capitalizations. IPOs and other types of investments may have a
magnified performance impact on a fund with a small asset base. A Fund may not
experience similar performance as its assets grow.

Each Fund is an actively managed investment portfolio and is therefore
subject to the risk that the investment strategies employed for the Fund may
fail to produce the intended results.

Janus Capital manages many funds and numerous other accounts. Management of
multiple accounts may involve conflicts of interest among those accounts, and
may create potential risks, such as the risk that investment activity in one
account may adversely affect another account. For example, short sale activity
in an account could adversely affect the market value of long positions in one
or more other accounts (and vice versa). Additionally, Janus Capital is the
adviser to the Janus "funds of funds," which are funds that invest primarily in
other mutual funds managed by Janus Capital. Because Janus Capital is the
adviser to the Janus "funds of funds" and the funds, it is subject to certain
potential conflicts of interest when allocating the assets of a Janus "fund of
funds" among such funds. To the extent that a Fund is an underlying fund in a
Janus "fund of funds," a potential conflict of interest arises when allocating
the assets of the Janus "fund of funds" to that Fund. Purchases and redemptions
of fund shares by a Janus "fund of funds" due to reallocations or rebalancings
may result in a fund having to sell securities or invest cash when it otherwise
would not do so. Such transactions could accelerate the realization of taxable
income if sales of securities resulted in gains and could also increase a fund's
transaction costs. Large redemptions by a Janus "fund of funds" may cause a
fund's expense ratio to increase due to a resulting smaller asset base. A
further discussion of potential conflicts of interest and a discussion of
certain procedures intended to mitigate such potential conflicts are contained
in each Fund's Statement of Additional Information.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT CERTAIN RISKS

The following questions and answers are designed to help you better
understand some of the risks of investing in each Fund.

1. HOW COULD A FUND'S INVESTMENTS IN FOREIGN SECURITIES AFFECT ITS PERFORMANCE?

Within the parameters of its specific investment policies, each Fund may
invest in foreign debt and equity securities either indirectly (e.g., depositary
receipts, depositary shares, and passive foreign investment companies) or
directly in foreign markets, including emerging markets. Investments in foreign
securities, including those of foreign governments, may involve greater risks
than investing in domestic securities

because a Fund's performance may depend on factors other than the performance of
a particular company. These factors include:

- Currency Risk. As long as a Fund holds a foreign security, its value
will be affected by the value of the local currency relative to the U.S.
dollar. When a Fund sells a foreign currency denominated security, its
value may be worth less in U.S. dollars even if the security increases in
value in its home country. U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign
issuers may also be affected by currency risk due to the overall impact
of exposure to the issuer's local currency.

- Political and Economic Risk. Foreign investments may be subject to
heightened political and economic risks, particularly in emerging markets
which may have relatively unstable governments, immature economic
structures, national policies restricting investments by foreigners,
different legal systems, and economies based on only a few industries. In
some countries, there is the risk that the government may take over the
assets or operations of a company or that the government may impose taxes
or limits on the removal of a Fund's assets from that country.

- Regulatory Risk. There may be less government supervision of foreign
markets. As a result, foreign issuers may not be subject to the uniform
accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards and practices
applicable to domestic issuers, and there may be less publicly available
information about foreign issuers.

- Foreign Market Risk. Foreign securities markets, particularly those of
emerging market countries, may be less liquid and more volatile than
domestic markets. Certain markets may require payment for securities
before delivery, and delays may be encountered in settling securities
transactions. In some foreign markets, there may not be protection
against failure by other parties to complete transactions. Such factors
may hinder a Fund's ability to buy and sell emerging market securities in
a timely manner, affecting the Fund's investment strategies and
potentially affecting the value of the Fund.

- Transaction Costs. Costs of buying, selling, and holding foreign
securities, including brokerage, tax, and custody costs, may be higher
than those involved in domestic transactions.

2. A FUND MAY INVEST IN SMALLER OR NEWER COMPANIES. DOES THIS CREATE ANY
SPECIAL RISKS?

Many attractive investment opportunities may be in smaller, start-up
companies offering emerging products or services. Smaller or newer companies may
suffer more significant losses as well as realize more substantial growth than
larger or more established issuers because they may lack depth of management, be
unable to generate funds necessary for growth or potential development, or be
developing or marketing new products or services for which markets are not yet
established and may never become established. In addition, such companies may be
insignificant factors in their industries

and may become subject to intense competition from larger or more established
companies. Securities of smaller or newer companies may have more limited
trading markets than the markets for securities of larger or more established
issuers, or may not be publicly traded at all, and may be subject to wide price
fluctuations. Investments in such companies tend to be more volatile and
somewhat more speculative.

3. WHAT IS "INDUSTRY RISK"?

Industry risk is the possibility that a group of related securities will
decline in price due to industry-specific developments. Companies in the same or
similar industries may share common characteristics and are more likely to react
similarly to industry-specific market or economic developments. A Fund's
investments, if any, in multiple companies in a particular industry increase the
Fund's exposure to industry risk.

4. ARE THERE SPECIAL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INVESTMENTS IN HIGH-YIELD/HIGH-RISK
BONDS?

High-yield/high-risk bonds (or "junk" bonds) are bonds rated below
investment grade by the primary rating agencies such as Standard & Poor's,
Fitch, and Moody's or are unrated bonds of similar quality. The value of lower
quality bonds generally is more dependent on credit risk and default risk than
investment grade bonds. Issuers of high-yield/high-risk bonds may not be as
strong financially as those issuing bonds with higher credit ratings and are
more vulnerable to real or perceived economic changes, political changes, or
adverse developments specific to the issuer. In addition, the junk bond market
can experience sudden and sharp price swings.

The secondary market on which high-yield securities are traded may be less
liquid than the market for investment grade securities. The lack of a liquid
secondary market may have an adverse impact on the market price of the security.
Secondary markets for high-yield securities are less liquid than the market for
investment grade securities; therefore, it may be more difficult to value the
securities because valuation may require more research, and elements of judgment
may play a larger role in the valuation because there is less reliable,
objective data available.

Please refer to the "Explanation of Rating Categories" section of JAD
Growth and Income Fund's Prospectus for a description of bond rating categories.

5. WHAT IS MEANT BY "CREDIT QUALITY" AND WHAT ARE THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH IT?

Credit quality measures the likelihood that the issuer or borrower will
meet its obligations on a bond. One of the fundamental risks is credit risk,
which is the risk that an issuer will be unable to make principal and interest
payments when due, or default on its obligations. This may negatively impact a
Fund's returns and yield. U.S. Government securities are generally considered to
be the safest type of investment in terms of credit risk. Municipal obligations
generally rank between U.S. Government securities and corporate debt securities
in terms of credit safety. Corporate debt securities, particularly those rated
below investment grade, present the highest credit risk.

6. HOW DO THE FUNDS TRY TO REDUCE RISK?

Each Fund may use short sales, futures, options, swap agreements
(including, but not limited to, equity, interest rate, credit default, and total
return swaps), and other derivative instruments individually or in combination
to "hedge" or protect its portfolio from adverse movements in securities prices
and interest rates. The Funds may also use a variety of currency hedging
techniques, including the use of forward currency contracts, to manage currency
risk. There is no guarantee that derivative investments will benefit a Fund. A
Fund's performance could be worse than if the Fund had not used such
instruments. Use of such investments may instead increase risk to the Fund,
rather than reduce risk.

GENERAL PORTFOLIO POLICIES

Unless otherwise stated, the following general policies apply to each Fund.
Except for a Fund's policies with respect to investments in illiquid securities
and borrowing, the percentage limitations included in these policies and
elsewhere in this Prospectus/Information Statement and/or the Fund's Statement
of Additional Information normally apply only at the time of purchase of a
security. So, for example, if a Fund exceeds a limit as a result of market
fluctuations or the sale of other securities, it will not be required to dispose
of any securities.

CASH POSITION

The Funds may not always stay fully invested. For example, when the
portfolio manager believes that market conditions are unfavorable for profitable
investing, or when he is otherwise unable to locate attractive investment
opportunities, a Fund's cash or similar investments may increase. In other
words, cash or similar investments generally are a residual - they represent the
assets that remain after a Fund has committed available assets to desirable
investment opportunities. When a Fund's investments in cash or similar
investments increase, it may not participate in market advances or declines to
the same extent that it would if the Fund remained more fully invested. To the
extent a Fund invests its uninvested cash through a sweep program, it is subject
to the risks of the account or fund into which it is investing, including
liquidity issues that may delay the Fund from accessing its cash.

In addition, a Fund may temporarily increase its cash position under
certain unusual circumstances, such as to protect its assets or maintain
liquidity in certain circumstances, for example, to meet unusually large
redemptions. A Fund's cash position may also increase temporarily due to
unusually large cash inflows. Under unusual circumstances such as these, a Fund
may invest up to 100% of its assets in cash or similar investments. In this
case, the Fund may take positions that are inconsistent with its investment
objective. As a result, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

In general, each Fund intends to purchase securities for long-term
investment, although, to a limited extent, each Fund may purchase securities in
anticipation of relatively short-term price gains. Short-term transactions may
also result from liquidity needs, securities having reached a price or yield
objective, changes in interest rates or the credit standing of an issuer, or by
reason of economic or other developments not foreseen at the time of the
investment decision. A Fund may also sell one security and simultaneously
purchase the same or a comparable security to take advantage of short-term
differentials in bond yields or securities prices. Portfolio turnover is
affected by market conditions, changes in the size of a Fund, the nature of a
Fund's investments, and the investment style of the portfolio manager. Changes
are normally made in a Fund's portfolio whenever the portfolio manager believes
such changes are desirable. Portfolio turnover rates are generally not a factor
in making buy and sell decisions.

Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher costs for brokerage
commissions, dealer mark-ups, and other transaction costs, and may also result
in taxable capital gains. Higher costs associated with increased portfolio
turnover may offset gains in a Fund's performance.

COUNTERPARTIES

Fund transactions involving a counterparty are subject to the risk that the
counterparty or a third party will not fulfill its obligation to a Fund
("counterparty risk"). Counterparty risk may arise because of the counterparty's
financial condition (i.e., financial difficulties, bankruptcy, or insolvency),
market activities and developments, or other reasons, whether foreseen or not. A
counterparty's inability to fulfill its obligation may result in significant
financial loss to the Fund. A Fund may be unable to recover its investment from
the counterparty or may obtain a limited recovery, and/or recovery may be
delayed.

Each Fund may be exposed to counterparty risk through participation in
various programs including, but not limited to, lending its securities to third
parties, cash sweep arrangements whereby a Fund's cash balance is invested in
one or more money market funds, as well as investments in, but not limited to,
repurchase agreements, debt securities, and derivatives, including various types
of swaps, futures, and options. Each Fund intends to enter into financial
transactions with counterparties that Janus Capital believes to be creditworthy
at the time of the transaction. There is always the risk that Janus Capital's
analysis of a counterparty's creditworthiness is incorrect or may change due to
market conditions. To the extent that a Fund focuses its transactions with a
limited number of counterparties, it will have greater exposure to the risks
associated with one or more counterparties.

OTHER TYPES OF INVESTMENTS

Unless otherwise stated within its specific investment policies, each Fund
may also invest in other types of domestic and foreign securities and use other
investment

strategies, as described in Appendix B. These securities and strategies are not
principal investment strategies of a Fund. If successful, they may benefit a
Fund by earning a return on the Fund's assets or reducing risk; however, they
may not achieve the Fund's investment objective. These securities and strategies
may include:

- debt securities
- exchange-traded funds
- indexed/structured securities
- high-yield/high-risk bonds (35% or less of a Fund's net assets)
- various derivative transactions (which could comprise a significant
percentage of a Fund's portfolio) including, but not limited to, options,
futures, forwards, swap agreements (such as equity, interest rate, credit
default, and total return swaps), participatory notes, structured notes,
and other types of derivatives individually or in combination for hedging
purposes or for nonhedging purposes such as seeking to enhance return, to
protect unrealized gains, or to avoid realizing losses; such techniques
may also be used to gain exposure to the market pending investment of
cash balances or to meet liquidity needs
- short sales (no more than 10% of a Fund's net assets may be invested in
short sales other than against the box)
- securities purchased on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward
commitment basis
- entering into transactions to manage a Fund's realization of capital
gains and to offset such realization of capital gains with capital losses
where the portfolio manager believes it is appropriate; such techniques
may result in increased transaction costs paid by a Fund and may be
limited under the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations

SHORT SALES

To a limited extent, each Fund may engage in short sales. A short sale is
generally a transaction in which a Fund sells a security it does not own or have
the right to acquire (or that it owns but does not wish to deliver) in
anticipation that the market price of that security will decline. To complete
the transaction, a Fund must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer.
The Fund is then obligated to replace the security borrowed by purchasing the
security at the market price at the time of replacement. A short sale is subject
to the risk that if the price of the security sold short increases in value, a
Fund will incur a loss because it will have to replace the security sold short
by purchasing it at a higher price. In addition, a Fund may not always be able
to close out a short position at a particular time or at an acceptable price. A
lender may request, or market conditions may dictate, that the securities sold
short be returned to the lender on short notice, and a Fund may have to buy the
securities sold short at an unfavorable price. If this occurs at a time that
other short sellers of the same security also want to close out their positions,
it is more likely that a Fund will have to cover its short sale at an
unfavorable price and potentially reduce or eliminate any gain, or cause a loss,
as a result of the short sale. Because there is no upper limit to the price a
borrowed security may reach prior to closing a short position, a Fund's losses
are potentially unlimited in a short sale

transaction. A Fund's gains and losses will also be decreased or increased, as
the case may be, by the amount of any dividends, interest, or expenses,
including transaction costs and borrowing fees, the Fund may be required to pay
in connection with a short sale. Such payments may result in a Fund having
higher expenses than a fund that does not engage in short sales and may
negatively affect the Fund's performance.

A Fund may also enter into short positions through derivative instruments
such as option contracts, futures contract and swap agreements which may expose
the Fund to similar risks. To the extent that a Fund enters into short
derivative positions, the Fund may be exposed to risks similar to those
associated with short sales, including the risk that the Fund's losses are
theoretically unlimited.

Due to certain foreign countries' restrictions, a Fund will not be able to
engage in short sales in certain foreign countries where it may maintain long
positions. As a result, a Fund's ability to fully implement a short selling
strategy that could otherwise help the Fund pursue its investment goals may be
limited.

Although Janus Capital believes that its rigorous "bottom up" approach will
be effective in selecting short positions, there is no assurance that Janus
Capital will be successful in applying this approach when engaging in short
sales.

SWAP AGREEMENTS

Each Fund may utilize swap agreements as a means to gain exposure to
certain common stocks and/or to "hedge" or protect its portfolio from adverse
movements in securities prices and interest rates. Swap agreements are two-party
contracts to exchange one set of cash flows for another. Swap agreements entail
the risk that a party will default on its payment obligations to a Fund. If the
other party to a swap defaults, a Fund would risk the loss of the net amount of
the payments that it contractually is entitled to receive. If a Fund utilizes a
swap at the wrong time or judges market conditions incorrectly, the swap may
result in a loss to the Fund and reduce the Fund's total return. Various types
of swaps such as credit default, equity, interest rate, and total return swaps
are described in Appendix B.

SECURITIES LENDING

A Fund may seek to earn additional income through lending its securities to
certain qualified broker-dealers and institutions. Each Fund may lend portfolio
securities on a short-term or long-term basis, in an amount equal to up to one-
third of its total assets as determined at the time of the loan origination.
When a Fund lends its securities, it receives collateral (including cash
collateral), at least equal to the value of securities loaned. There is the risk
that when portfolio securities are lent, the securities may not be returned on a
timely basis, and the Fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the
security or gaining access to the collateral. If the Fund is unable to recover a
security on loan, the Fund may use the collateral to purchase replacement
securities in the market. There is a risk that the value of the collateral could
decrease below the cost of the

replacement security by the time the replacement investment is made, resulting
in a loss to the Fund.

ILLIQUID INVESTMENTS

Each Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in illiquid investments.
An illiquid investment is a security or other position that cannot be disposed
of quickly in the normal course of business. For example, some securities are
not registered under U.S. securities laws and cannot be sold to the U.S. public
because of SEC regulations (these are known as "restricted securities"). Under
procedures adopted by each Fund's Board of Trustees, certain restricted
securities that are determined to be liquid will not be counted toward this 15%
limit.

SPECIAL SITUATIONS

Each Fund may invest in companies that demonstrate special situations or
turnarounds, meaning companies that have experienced significant business
problems but are believed to have favorable prospects for recovery. For example,
a special situation or turnaround may arise when, in the opinion of a Fund's
portfolio manager, the securities of a particular issuer will be recognized by
the market and appreciate in value due to a specific development with respect to
that issuer. Special situations may include significant changes in a company's
allocation of its existing capital, a restructuring of assets, or a redirection
of free cash flow. For example, issuers undergoing significant capital changes
may include companies involved in spin-offs, sales of divisions, mergers or
acquisitions, companies emerging from bankruptcy, or companies initiating large
changes in their debt to equity ratio. Companies that are redirecting cash flows
may be reducing debt, repurchasing shares, or paying dividends. Special
situations may also result from: (i) significant changes in industry structure
through regulatory developments or shifts in competition; (ii) a new or improved
product, service, operation, or technological advance; (iii) changes in senior
management or other extraordinary corporate event; (iv) differences in market
supply of and demand for the security; or (v) significant changes in cost
structure. A Fund's performance could suffer from its investments in "special
situations."

COMPARISON OF FEES AND EXPENSES

The types of expenses currently paid by each class of shares of JAD Growth
and Income Fund are the same types of expenses to be paid by the corresponding
share classes of JIF Growth and Income Fund. Currently, the Funds have
substantially similar investment advisory agreements and are subject to the same
annual advisory fee rate of 0.62% of average daily net assets.

CURRENT AND PRO FORMA FEES AND EXPENSES

The following tables compare the fees and expenses you may bear directly or
indirectly as an investor in JAD Growth and Income Fund versus JIF Growth and
Income Fund, and show the projected ("pro forma") estimated fees and expenses of
JIF Growth

and Income Fund, assuming consummation of the Reorganization as of October 31,
2008. Fees and expenses shown for JAD Growth and Income Fund were determined
based on the Fund's average net assets as of its fiscal year ended July 31,
2008. The pro forma fees and expenses shown for JIF Growth and Income Fund were
determined based on the Fund's average net assets as of its fiscal year ended
October 31, 2008. The pro forma fees and expenses are estimated in good faith
and are hypothetical, and do not reflect any change in expense ratios resulting
from a change in assets under management since July 31, 2008 for JAD Growth and
Income Fund and October 31, 2008 for JIF Growth and Income Fund. Total net
assets as of these dates are shown in a footnote to the table. More current
total net asset information is available on janus.com/info. It is important for
you to know that a decline in a Fund's average net assets during the current
fiscal year and after the Reorganization, as a result of market volatility or
other factors, could cause the Fund's expense ratio to be higher than the fees
and expenses shown, which means you could pay more if you buy or hold shares of
the Funds. Significant declines in a Fund's net assets will increase your Fund's
total expense ratio, likely significantly. The Funds will not pay any fees of
the Reorganization.

ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES

Annual fund operating expenses are paid out of a Fund's assets and include
fees for portfolio management, maintenance of shareholder accounts, shareholder
servicing, accounting, and other services. You do not pay these fees directly,
but as the examples in the table below show, these costs are borne indirectly by
all shareholders.

The Annual Fund Operating Expenses shown in the table below represent
annualized expenses for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2008 for JAD Growth and
Income Fund and those projected for JIF Growth and Income Fund on a pro forma
basis for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008 assuming consummation of the
Reorganization. The pro forma expenses include estimated costs of the larger JIF
Growth and Income Fund, which may result in higher costs that over the long-term
are anticipated to decline. The Annual Fund Operating Expenses do not show
current expenses for JIF Growth and Income Fund since the Fund does not
currently offer any Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S Shares. The
pro forma information in the "Annual Fund Operating Expenses" table below
assumes that JIF Growth and Income Fund post-Reorganization has an annual fixed-
rate advisory fee of 0.62% of average daily net assets. Neither the current nor
pro forma Annual Fund Operating Expenses include the effect of recent market
volatility which may increase those expenses to the extent there has been a
decline in either Fund's asset levels.

EXPENSE LIMITATIONS

Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses shown in the table below do not
include any expense limitations agreed to by Janus Capital. Currently, through
December 1, 2009, pursuant to a contract between Janus Capital and JAD Growth
and Income Fund, Janus Capital reduces its investment advisory fee rate paid by
JAD Growth and Income Fund by the amount by which the total annual fund
operating expenses allocated to any

class of the Fund exceed 0.99% of average daily net assets for the fiscal year.
For purposes of this waiver, operating expenses do not include fees payable
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, administrative services fees
(applicable to Class R Shares and Class S Shares), or items not normally
considered operating expenses, such as interest, dividends, taxes, brokerage
commissions and extraordinary expenses (including, but not limited to, legal
claims and liabilities and litigation costs, acquired fund fees and expenses and
any indemnification related thereto). Janus Capital currently does not have a
similar expense limitation agreement for JIF Growth and Income Fund but,
assuming consummation of the Reorganization, Janus Capital has contractually
agreed that until at least November 1, 2010, it would reduce its annual
investment advisory fee rate paid by JIF Growth and Income Fund by the amount,
if any, the total annual fund operating expenses allocated to any class exceed
0.73% of average daily net assets for the fiscal year. See the footnote to Total
Annual Fund Operating Expenses in the table below that provides further detail
regarding the total net expense ratio.

The estimated pro forma expense ratio of JIF Growth and Income Fund, as
shown in the fee table, does not include any fee waivers. Changes to expenses
and asset levels of both JAD Growth and Income Fund and JIF Growth and Income
Fund at the time of the Reorganization could trigger application of JIF Growth
and Income Fund's expense limit of 0.73% (with certain expenses excluded from
the waiver as noted above), resulting in a possible reduction of other expenses
for a class and the investment advisory fee rate payable to Janus Capital by JIF
Growth and Income Fund.

SHAREHOLDER FEES

Shareholder fees are those paid directly from your investment, such as
sales loads and redemption fees. As noted above, JIF Growth and Income Fund
currently does not offer Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S Shares.
Upon consummation of the Reorganization, shares of these classes of JIF Growth
and Income Fund will be established to correspond with shares of JAD Growth and
Income Fund. Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S Shares of JIF Growth
and Income Fund will have substantially the same class characteristics as the
Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S Shares of JAD Growth and Income
Fund, respectively.

* As of July 31, 2008, total net assets (rounded to millions) were $147.6 for
JAD Growth and Income Fund. As of October 31, 2008, total net assets
(rounded to millions) were $3,345.7 for JIF Growth and Income Fund.

(1) All expenses are shown without the effect of expense offset arrangements.
Pursuant to such arrangements, credits realized as a result of uninvested
cash balances are used to reduce custodian and transfer agent expenses.
(2) The "Management Fee" is the investment advisory fee rate paid by the Fund to
Janus Capital.
(3) Includes a shareholder servicing fee of up to 0.25% for Class C Shares.
Because the 12b-1 fee is charged as an ongoing fee, over time the fee will
increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other
types of sales charges.
(4) For Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares, Other Expenses may
include administrative, networking, or omnibus positioning fees charged by
intermediaries with respect to processing orders in Fund shares. For Class R
Shares and Class S Shares, Other Expenses include an administrative services
fee of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each class to compensate
Janus Services LLC for providing, or arranging for the provision of,
recordkeeping, subaccounting, and administrative services to retirement

plan participants, pension plan participants, or other underlying investors
investing through institutional channels.

(5) "Acquired Fund" means any underlying fund (including, but not limited to,
exchange-traded funds) in which a Fund invests or has invested during the
period. A Fund's "ratio of gross expenses to average net assets" appearing
in the Financial Highlights tables in the Fund's current prospectus does not
include Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses and may not correlate to the Total
Annual Fund Operating Expenses shown in the table above. Amounts less than
0.01%, if applicable, are included in Other Expenses to the extent the
amount reflected may show 0.00%.

(6) Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses do not reflect the application of
contractual expense waivers by Janus Capital. Janus Capital has
contractually agreed to waive the total annual fund operating expenses of
(i) JAD Growth and Income Fund and (ii) assuming the consummation of the
Reorganization, JIF Growth and Income Fund post-Reorganization (excluding
the distribution and shareholder servicing fees (applicable to Class A
Shares, Class C Shares, Class R Shares and Class S Shares), administrative
services fees (applicable to Class R Shares and Class S Shares), brokerage
commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, and extraordinary expenses
including, but not limited to, acquired fund fees and expenses) to the
extent such operating expenses exceed 0.99% and 0.73%, respectively, of
average daily net assets on the fiscal year ending date in which the
agreement is in effect. The agreement to contractually waive expenses of JIF
Growth and Income Fund post-Reorganization will be in effect until at least
November 1, 2010 unless terminated, revised, or extended. Refer to "Expense
Limitations" in this Prospectus/Information Statement for the Funds' expense
limit. Based on information in the table above, with the waiver, assuming
Net Annual Fund Operating Expenses would have been included in the table
above, those expenses for each Fund are as follows:

EXAMPLES:

THE FOLLOWING EXAMPLES ARE BASED ON EXPENSES WITHOUT WAIVERS AS DISCUSSED
ABOVE UNDER "EXPENSE LIMITATIONS." These examples are intended to help you
compare the cost of investing in JAD Growth and Income Fund and in JIF Growth
and Income Fund after the Reorganization with the cost of investing in other
mutual funds. The examples assume that you invest $10,000 in JAD Growth and
Income Fund and in JIF Growth and Income Fund after the Reorganization for the
time periods indicated and reinvest all dividends and distributions without a
sales charge. The examples also assume that your investment has a 5% return each
year and that the Funds' operating expenses without waivers remain the same. The
first example assumes that you redeem all of your Shares at the end of each
period. The second example

assumes that you keep your Shares. Although your actual costs may be higher or
lower, based upon these assumptions your costs would be as follows:

COMPARISON OF FUND PERFORMANCE

The following information provides some indication of the risks of
investing in the Funds by showing how each Fund's actual performance has varied
over time. The bar charts depict the change in performance from year to year
during the periods indicated. The bar chart figures do not include any
applicable sales charges that an investor may pay when they buy or sell shares
of a Fund. If sales charges were included, the returns would be lower. Since JIF
Growth and Income Fund does not currently have Class A, Class C, Class I, Class
R and Class S Shares, information shown for JIF Growth and Income Fund is based
on a share class that has different fees and expenses than share classes of JAD
Growth and Income Fund and does not represent the performance of your current
share class. The table following the charts shows how the performance of each
Fund compares to broad-based market indices (which, unlike the Funds, do not
have any fees or expenses). Each Fund's performance is compared to the S&P
500(R) Index, with the Russell 1000(R) Growth Index as the Fund's secondary
benchmark. After the Reorganization, it is expected that JIF Growth and Income
Fund will continue to compare its performance to the S&P 500(R) Index, with the
Russell 1000(R) Growth Index as the Fund's secondary benchmark. The indices are
not actively managed and are not available for direct investment. All figures
assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions. For certain periods, the
Funds' performance may reflect the effect of expense waivers. Without the effect
of these waivers, the performance shown would have been lower. The performance
of the Funds and the indices varies over time. Of course, a Fund's past
performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of future
performance.

inception date of the predecessor fund (see footnote below) for JAD Growth
and Income Fund is May 1, 1998.

(3) Class S Shares (formerly named Class I Shares) of the Fund commenced
operations on August 1, 2000, after the reorganization of the Retirement
Shares of Janus Aspen Series - Growth and Income Portfolio (the
"predecessor fund") into the Fund. The returns for the Fund reflect the
performance of the Retirement Shares of the predecessor fund prior to the
reorganization. The performance shown for certain periods prior to the
Fund's commencement of Class S Shares was calculated using the fees and
expenses of Class S Shares, without the effect of any fee and expense
limitations or waivers. The performance shown for periods following the
Fund's commencement of Class S Shares reflects the fees and expenses of
Class S Shares, net of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.
(4) If a Fund incurs a loss, which generates a tax benefit, the Return After
Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund shares may exceed the Fund's other
return figures.

(5) Class A and Class R Shares of the Fund commenced operations on September
30, 2004. The performance shown for Class A and Class R Shares reflect the
performance of each class from September 30, 2004 to December 31, 2008, the
performance of the Fund's Class S Shares from August 1, 2000 to September
30, 2004, and the historical performance of other classes of shares and the
predecessor fund for periods prior to August 1, 2000. The performance shown
for certain periods prior to the Fund's commencement of Class A and Class R
Shares was calculated using the fees and expenses of Class A and Class R
Shares, respectively, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations
or waivers. The performance shown for periods following the Fund's
commencement of Class A and Class R Shares reflects the fees and expenses
of Class A and Class R Shares, respectively, net of any fee and expense
limitations or waivers.
(6) Calculated assuming maximum permitted sales loads.
(7) Class C Shares of the Fund commenced operations on September 30, 2002. The
performance shown for Class C Shares reflects the performance of the Fund's
Class C Shares from September 30, 2002 to December 31, 2008, the
performance of the Fund's Class S Shares from August 1, 2000 to September
30, 2002, and the historical performance of other classes of shares and the
predecessor fund for periods prior to August 1, 2000. The performance shown
for certain periods prior to the Fund's commencement of Class C Shares was
calculated using the fees and expenses of Class C Shares, without the
effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers. The performance shown
for periods following the Fund's commencement of Class C Shares reflects
the fees and expenses of Class C Shares, net of any fee and expense
limitations or waivers.
(8) Class I Shares of the Fund commenced operations on November 28, 2005. The
performance shown for Class I Shares reflects the performance of the Fund's
Class I Shares from November 28, 2005 to December 31, 2008, the performance
of the Fund's Class S Shares from August 1, 2000 to November 28, 2005, and
the historical performance of other classes of shares and the predecessor
fund for periods prior to August 1, 2000. The performance shown for certain
periods prior to the Fund's commencement of Class I Shares was calculated
using the fees and expenses of Class I Shares, without the effect of any
fee and expense limitations or waivers. The performance shown for periods
following the Fund's commencement of Class I Shares reflects the fees and
expenses of Class I Shares, net of any fee and expense limitations or
waivers.

After-tax returns are calculated using the historically highest individual
federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and
local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on your individual tax situation
and may differ from those shown in the preceding table. The after-tax return
information shown above does not apply to Fund shares held through a tax-

DISTRIBUTION AND PURCHASE PROCEDURES, EXCHANGE RIGHTS, AND REDEMPTION PROCEDURES

Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S Shares of JIF Growth and
Income Fund will have substantially similar class characteristics as the Class
A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S Shares of JAD Growth and Income Fund,
respectively. JIF Growth and Income Fund currently does not offer Class A, Class
C, Class I, Class R and Class S Shares. Upon consummation of the Reorganization,
shares of these classes of JIF Growth and Income Fund will be established to
correspond with shares of JAD Growth and Income Fund. For additional information
about purchase procedures, exchange

rights and redemption procedures, please refer to the Shareholder's Guide,
attached as Appendix C.

Janus Capital is the investment adviser and administrator to both JAD
Growth and Income Fund and JIF Growth and Income Fund, and Janus Distributors
LLC ("Janus Distributors") is the distributor of each Fund. In addition, the
custodian, State Street Bank and Trust Company, and transfer agent, Janus
Services LLC, are the same for both Funds. After the Reorganization, JIF Growth
and Income Fund will have purchase, exchange, and redemption procedures for
Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S Shares that are the same or
similar to those of the corresponding share classes in JAD Growth and Income
Fund. Prior to the Reorganization, the JIF Trust will adopt a new plan pursuant
to Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act which will make the share class characteristics
of the JIF Trust substantially similar to the share class characteristics of the
JAD Trust. Therefore, it is expected that shareholders of JAD Growth and Income
Fund will continue to be subject to the same procedures and receive the same
services as shareholders of JIF Growth and Income Fund, as they currently do as
shareholders of JAD Growth and Income Fund.

THE REORGANIZATION

THE PLAN

The Plan sets forth the terms and conditions under which the Reorganization
will be implemented. Significant provisions of the Plan are summarized below;
however, this summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan,
which is attached hereto as Appendix A.

The Plan contemplates: (i) JIF Growth and Income Fund's acquisition of all
or substantially all of the assets of JAD Growth and Income Fund in exchange
solely for shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund and the assumption by JIF Growth
and Income Fund of all of JAD Growth and Income Fund's liabilities, if any, as
of the Closing Date; (ii) the distribution on the Closing Date of those shares
to the shareholders of JAD Growth and Income Fund; and (iii) the complete
liquidation of JAD Growth and Income Fund.

The value of JAD Growth and Income Fund's assets to be acquired and the
amount of its liabilities to be assumed by JIF Growth and Income Fund and the
NAV of a share of JAD Growth and Income Fund will be determined as of the close
of regular trading on the NYSE on the Closing Date, after the declaration by JAD
Growth and Income Fund of distributions, if any on the Closing Date, and will be
determined in accordance with the valuation methodologies described in JAD
Growth and Income Fund's currently effective Prospectuses and Statement of
Additional Information. The Plan provides that Janus Capital will pay all fees
of the Reorganization, including the costs and expenses incurred in the
preparation and mailing of this Prospectus/Information Statement. The Closing
Date is expected to be on or about July 2, 2009.

As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, JAD Growth and Income Fund
will distribute pro rata to its shareholders of record the shares of JIF Growth
and Income Fund it receives in the Reorganization, so that each shareholder of
JAD Growth and Income Fund will receive a number of full and fractional shares
of JIF Growth and Income Fund approximately equal in value to his or her
holdings in JAD Growth and Income Fund, and JAD Growth and Income Fund will be
liquidated.

Such distribution will be accomplished by opening accounts on the books of
JIF Growth and Income Fund in the names of JAD Growth and Income Fund
shareholders and by transferring thereto the shares of JIF Growth and Income
Fund previously credited to the account of JAD Growth and Income Fund on those
books. Each shareholder account shall be credited with the pro rata number of
JIF Growth and Income Fund's shares due to that shareholder. All issued and
outstanding shares of JAD

Growth and Income Fund will simultaneously be canceled on the books of the JAD
Trust. Accordingly, immediately after the Reorganization, each former
shareholder of JAD Growth and Income Fund will own shares of JIF Growth and
Income Fund that will be approximately equal to the value of that shareholder's
shares of JAD Growth and Income Fund as of the Closing Date. Any special options
will automatically transfer to the new fund accounts.

The implementation of the Reorganization is subject to a number of
conditions set forth in the Plan. The Plan also requires receipt of a tax
opinion indicating that, for federal income tax purposes, the Reorganization
qualifies as a tax-free reorganization. The Plan may be terminated and the
Reorganization abandoned at any time prior to the Closing Date by the Boards of
Trustees if the Trustees determine that the Reorganization is not in the best
interests of the Funds. Please review the Plan carefully.

REASONS FOR THE REORGANIZATION

The Reorganization is part of some significant enhancements Janus Capital
has recently undertaken to reorganize and simplify its mutual fund platform.
Janus Capital believes that these efforts will provide both meaningful short-
and long-term benefits to fund shareholders. Janus Capital has historically
organized its retail mutual funds into two separate and distinct trusts with
different distribution models and pricing structures. Over time, the funds
offered under these two trusts have been substantially similar. Given Janus
Capital's evolving distribution model focused on servicing the intermediary and
advisor marketplace and the overlapping similarity of fund offerings in the two
trusts, Janus Capital believes that it is in the best interests of all fund
shareholders to merge funds of the two trusts that have the same or
substantially similar investment objectives, strategies, policies and risks.
These reorganizations will create one mutual fund platform with multi-share
class pricing intended to meet the needs of all investors. Through the
reorganizations, shareholders are expected to benefit from the following:

- The reorganizations provide Janus fund shareholders with the opportunity
to continue to invest in a Janus mutual fund offering the same or
substantially similar investment objectives, strategies, policies and
risks, and with the same portfolio management, as their current fund, but
as part of an enhanced fund platform;
- Janus Capital will have the opportunity to operate its platform more
efficiently, providing the potential to reduce possible inefficiencies
arising from having similarly managed mutual funds in the same fund
complex;
- As a result of the reorganizations, certain Janus funds will have larger
asset bases, which may result in the elimination of duplicative expenses
and lead to lower expense ratios in the future; and
- Janus Capital's evolving distribution model will permit different types
of shareholders to invest in the same Janus fund providing shareholders
more investment options and the opportunity to invest in funds that have
a more stable asset base.

It is also noteworthy that the Reorganization is designed to qualify as a
tax-free reorganization, so shareholders of JAD Growth and Income Fund should
not realize a tax gain or loss as a direct result of the Reorganization.

Janus Capital met with the Trustees, all of whom are not "interested
persons" (as defined in the 1940 Act) ("Independent Trustees"), counsel to the
Funds and counsel to the Independent Trustees on September 5, 2008, October 2,
2008, February 25, 2009 and March 11-12, 2009 to discuss Janus Capital's
proposal to reorganize the Funds. At each meeting, the Independent Trustees also
discussed this proposal and the Plan with their independent counsel in executive
session. During the course of these meetings, the Trustees requested and
considered such information as they deemed relevant to their deliberations.

At the joint meeting of the Boards of Trustees of the JIF Trust and the JAD
Trust held on March 12, 2009, the Trustees determined that (1) the
Reorganization is in the best interests of JAD Growth and Income Fund and JIF
Growth and Income Fund; and (2) the Plan should be approved by the Trustees. In
making these determinations, the Trustees considered the following factors,
among others:

(1) The Reorganization is part of a larger strategic repositioning of
Janus Capital's distribution model for Janus mutual funds that is
designed to offer certain potential benefits to Fund shareholders that
are not currently available, including a more diverse Fund shareholder
base, the potential for a more stable level of Fund assets, and access
to a wider range of Janus funds with differing investment strategies.
(2) The current conditions and trends in the securities markets and
related trends in the investment management business, and their
current and potential impact on Janus Capital, the JAD Trust and Fund
shareholders.

(3) JAD Growth and Income Fund has the same investment objective,
strategies, policies and risks as JIF Growth and Income Fund, and the
two Funds are managed by the same portfolio manager.

(4) The two Funds have similar historical performance.

(5) Shareholders of each Fund will have the opportunity to invest in a
larger Fund and potentially benefit from long-term economies of scale
that may result from the Reorganization.

(6) Fund expenses are not expected to increase materially as a result of
the Reorganization, and Janus Capital anticipates that in the future,
the elimination of some duplicative expenses and the opportunity for
economies of scale may result in lower future fund expenses (other
than management fees).

(7) Both Funds have the same contractual investment advisory fee rate
(excluding any fee waivers).

(8) The expense limitation agreements applicable to each Fund which, after
giving effect to fee waivers after the Reorganization, may result in
current JAD Growth and Income Fund shareholders paying lower fees in
the short-term, and provides greater longer term certainty with
respect to total expense ratios.

(9) The benefits of the Reorganization to Janus Capital and its
affiliates, including, among other things, that Janus Capital should
derive greater efficiency, in terms of portfolio management and
operations, by managing a single fund rather than two separate funds
with substantially the same investment objective, strategies, policies
and risks.
(10) The Reorganization would not dilute the interests of either Fund's
current shareholders.

(11) The impact of the Reorganization on the ability of JIF Growth and
Income Fund to benefit from using a portion of the realized capital
losses generated by JAD Growth and Income Fund and JIF Growth and
Income Fund, as applicable.

(12) The Reorganization, for each Fund and its shareholders, is expected to
be tax-free in nature.

(13) JAD Growth and Income Fund's shareholders will not pay any fees of the
Reorganization, and immediately after the Reorganization, the full and
fractional value of their shares in JIF Growth and Income Fund will be
equal to the full and fractional value of their JAD Growth and Income
Fund holdings immediately prior to the Reorganization.

Based on these considerations, among others, the Boards of Trustees of the
JAD Trust and JIF Trust concluded that: (1) the Reorganization is in the best
interests of JAD Growth and Income Fund and JIF Growth and Income Fund; and (2)
the interests of the existing shareholders of each Fund will not be diluted as a
result of the Reorganization. Accordingly, the Trustees approved the Plan.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

As a condition to the Reorganization, the JAD Trust and the JIF Trust will
receive a legal opinion from Dechert LLP, special counsel to Janus Capital,
substantially to the effect that, subject to customary assumptions and
representations, on the basis of the existing provisions of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the Treasury Regulations promulgated
thereunder and current administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, for
federal income tax purposes:

- the transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of JAD Growth and
Income Fund solely in exchange for shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund
and the assumption by JIF Growth and Income Fund of all liabilities of
JAD Growth and Income Fund, and the distribution of such shares to the
shareholders of JAD Growth and Income Fund, will constitute a
"reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code;

- no gain or loss will be recognized by JAD Growth and Income Fund on the
transfer of the assets of JAD Growth and Income Fund to JIF Growth and
Income Fund in exchange for JIF Growth and Income Fund shares or the
assumption by JIF Growth and Income Fund of all liabilities of JAD Growth
and Income Fund or upon the distribution of JIF Growth and Income Fund
shares to JAD Growth and

Income Fund shareholders in exchange for their shares of JAD Growth and
Income Fund;
- the tax basis of JAD Growth and Income Fund's assets acquired by JIF
Growth and Income Fund will be the same to JIF Growth and Income Fund as
the tax basis of such assets to JAD Growth and Income Fund immediately
prior to the Reorganization, and the holding period of the assets of JAD
Growth and Income Fund in the hands of JIF Growth and Income Fund will
include the period during which those assets were held by JAD Growth and
Income Fund;
- no gain or loss will be recognized by JIF Growth and Income Fund upon the
receipt of the assets of JAD Growth and Income Fund solely in exchange
for JIF Growth and Income Fund shares and the assumption by JIF Growth
and Income Fund of all liabilities of JAD Growth and Income Fund;
- no gain or loss will be recognized by shareholders of JAD Growth and
Income Fund upon the receipt of JIF Growth and Income Fund shares by such
shareholders, provided such shareholders receive solely JIF Growth and
Income Fund shares (including fractional shares) in exchange for their
JAD Growth and Income Fund shares; and

- the aggregate tax basis of JIF Growth and Income Fund shares, including
any fractional shares, received by each shareholder of JAD Growth and
Income Fund pursuant to the Reorganization will be the same as the
aggregate tax basis of JAD Growth and Income Fund shares held by such
shareholder immediately prior to the Reorganization, and the holding
period of JIF Growth and Income Fund shares, including fractional shares,
to be received by each shareholder of JAD Growth and Income Fund will
include the period during which JAD Growth and Income Fund shares
exchanged were held by such shareholder (provided that JAD Growth and
Income Fund shares were held as a capital asset on the Closing Date).

The receipt of such an opinion is a condition to the consummation of the
Reorganization. The JAD Trust has not obtained an Internal Revenue Service
("IRS") private letter ruling regarding the federal income tax consequences of
the Reorganization, and the IRS is not bound by advice of counsel. If the
transfer of the assets of JAD Growth and Income Fund in exchange for JIF Growth
and Income Fund shares and the assumption by JIF Growth and Income Fund of all
liabilities of JAD Growth and Income Fund does not constitute a tax-free
reorganization, each JAD Growth and Income Fund shareholder generally will
recognize a gain or loss approximately equal to the difference between the value
of JIF Growth and Income Fund shares such shareholder acquires and the tax basis
of such shareholder's JAD Growth and Income Fund shares.

Prior to the Closing Date, JAD Growth and Income Fund may pay to its
shareholders a cash distribution consisting of any undistributed investment
company taxable income and/or any undistributed realized net capital gains,
including any gains realized from any sales of assets prior to the Closing Date,
which may be attributable to portfolio transitioning. This distribution would be
taxable to shareholders that are subject to tax.

Shareholders of JAD Growth and Income Fund should consult their tax
advisers regarding the effect, if any, of the Reorganization in light of their
individual circumstances. Since the foregoing discussion relates only to the
federal income tax consequences of the Reorganization, shareholders of JAD
Growth and Income Fund should also consult tax advisers as to state and local
tax consequences, if any, of the Reorganization.

As of July 31, 2008, JAD Growth and Income Fund did not have any
accumulated capital loss carryforwards. As of October 31, 2008, JIF Growth and
Income Fund had accumulated capital loss carryforwards of $468,450,038. The
final amount of the accumulated capital loss carryforwards for JAD Growth and
Income Fund and JIF Growth and Income Fund is subject to change and will not be
determined until the time of the Reorganization. After and as a result of the
Reorganization, these accumulated capital loss carryforwards may in part be
subject to limitations under applicable tax laws. As a result, JIF Growth and
Income Fund may not be able to use some or all of these losses, if any, as
quickly as each Fund may have used these losses in the absence of the
Reorganization, and part of these losses may not be useable at all. The Boards
of Trustees of the JAD Trust and JIF Trust took this factor into account in
concluding that the Reorganization would be in the best interests of the Funds.

OTHER COMPARATIVE INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUNDS

INVESTMENT ADVISER

Janus Capital, 151 Detroit Street, Denver, Colorado 80206-4805, is the
investment adviser to each Fund. Janus Capital is responsible for the day-to-day
management of each Fund's investment portfolio and furnishes continuous advice
and recommendations

concerning each Fund's investments. Janus Capital also provides certain
administrative and other services and is responsible for other business affairs
of each Fund.

Janus Capital (together with its predecessors) has served as investment
adviser to Janus mutual funds since 1970 and currently serves as investment
adviser to all of the Janus funds, acts as subadviser for a number of private-
label mutual funds, and provides separate account advisory services for
institutional accounts.

Janus Capital furnishes certain administrative, compliance, and accounting
services for the Funds, and may be reimbursed by the Funds for its costs in
providing those services. In addition, employees of Janus Capital and/or its
affiliates serve as officers of the JIF Trust and the JAD Trust, and Janus
Capital provides office space for the Funds and pays all or a portion of the
salaries, fees, and expenses of all Fund officers (with some shared expenses
with the Funds of compensation payable to the Funds' Chief Compliance Officer
and compliance staff) and those Trustees who are considered interested persons
of Janus Capital. As of the date of this Prospectus/Information Statement, none
of the members of the Board of Trustees are "affiliated persons" of Janus
Capital as that term is defined by the 1940 Act.

PAYMENTS TO FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES BY JANUS CAPITAL OR ITS AFFILIATES

From its own assets, Janus Capital or its affiliates may pay fees to
selected brokerage firms or other financial intermediaries that sell shares of
the Janus funds for distribution, marketing, promotional, or related services.
Such payments may be based on gross sales, assets under management, or
transactional charges, or on a combination of these factors. The amount of these
payments is determined from time to time by Janus Capital, may be substantial,
and may differ for different financial intermediaries. Payments based primarily
on sales create an incentive to make new sales of shares, while payments based
on assets create an incentive to retain previously sold shares. Sales- and
asset-based payments currently range up to 25 basis points on sales and up to 20
basis points on average annual net assets of shares held through the
intermediary and are subject to change. Payments based on transactional charges
may include the payment or reimbursement of all or a portion of "ticket
charges." Ticket charges are fees charged to salespersons purchasing through a
financial intermediary firm in connection with mutual fund purchases,
redemptions, or exchanges. The payment or reimbursement of ticket charges
creates an incentive for salespersons of an intermediary to sell shares of Janus
funds over shares of funds for which there is lesser or no payment or
reimbursement of any applicable ticket charge. Janus Capital and its affiliates
consider a number of factors in making payments to financial intermediaries,
including the distribution capabilities of the intermediary, the overall quality
of the relationship, expected gross and/or net sales generated by the
relationship, redemption and retention rates of assets held through the
intermediary, the willingness of the intermediary to cooperate with Janus
Capital's marketing efforts, access to sales personnel, and the anticipated
profitability of sales through the institutional relationship. These factors may
change from time to time. Currently, these payments are limited to

the top 100 distributors (measured by sales or expected sales of shares of the
Janus funds).

For all share classes of the Janus funds, Janus Capital, Janus
Distributors, or their affiliates may pay fees, from their own assets, to
brokerage firms, banks, financial advisors, retirement plan service providers,
and other financial intermediaries for providing other marketing or
distribution-related services, as well as recordkeeping, subaccounting,
transaction processing, and other shareholder or administrative services
(including payments for processing transactions via National Securities Clearing
Corporation ("NSCC") or other means) in connection with investments in the Janus
funds. These fees are in addition to any fees that may be paid by the Janus
funds for these types of services or other services.

In addition, Janus Capital or its affiliates may also share certain
marketing expenses with intermediaries, or pay for or sponsor informational
meetings, seminars, client awareness events, support for marketing materials, or
business building programs for such intermediaries, to raise awareness of the
Janus funds. Such payments may be in addition to, or in lieu of, sales-based,
asset-based, and transaction-based payments. These payments are intended to
promote the sales of Janus funds and to reimburse financial intermediaries,
directly or indirectly, for the costs that they or their salespersons incur in
connection with educational seminars, meetings, and training efforts about the
Janus funds to enable the intermediaries and their salespersons to make suitable
recommendations, provide useful services, and maintain the necessary
infrastructure to make the Janus funds available to their customers.

The receipt of (or prospect of receiving) sales-, asset-, and/or
transaction-based payments or reimbursements and other forms of compensation
described above may provide a financial intermediary and its salespersons with
an incentive to favor sales of Janus funds' shares over sales of other mutual
funds (or non-mutual fund investments) or to favor sales of one class of Janus
funds' shares over sales of another Janus funds' share class with respect to
which the financial intermediary does not receive such payments or receives them
in a lower amount. The receipt of these payments may cause certain financial
intermediaries to elevate the prominence of the Janus funds within such
financial intermediary's organization by, for example, placement on a list of
preferred or recommended funds and/or the provision of preferential or enhanced
opportunities to promote the Janus funds in various ways within such financial
intermediary's organization.

The payment arrangements described above will not change the price an
investor pays for shares nor the amount that a Janus fund receives to invest on
behalf of the investor. You should consider whether such arrangements exist when
evaluating any recommendations from an intermediary to purchase or sell shares
of the Funds and when considering which share class of a Fund is most
appropriate for you. Please contact your financial intermediary or plan sponsor
for details on such arrangements.

MANAGEMENT EXPENSES

Each Fund currently pays Janus Capital an annual fixed investment advisory
fee rate that is calculated daily and paid monthly at the annual rate of 0.62%
of the Fund's average daily net assets. Each Fund's investment advisory
agreement details the investment advisory fee and other expenses that each Fund
must pay. Each Fund incurs expenses not assumed by Janus Capital, including any
transfer agent and custodian fees and expenses, legal and auditing fees,
printing and mailing costs of sending reports and other information to existing
shareholders, and Independent Trustees' fees and expenses. JAD Growth and Income
Fund incurs additional expenses not assumed by Janus Capital, including
distribution and shareholder servicing fees (12b-1 fee) (applicable to Class A,
Class C, Class R and Class S Shares) and administrative services fees
(applicable to Class R and Class S Shares). The following table reflects each
Fund's contractual annual investment advisory fee rate and the actual annual
investment advisory fee rate paid by each Fund to Janus Capital (gross and net
of fee waivers, if applicable).

(2) Janus Capital has agreed to limit the Fund's total annual fund operating
expenses (excluding the distribution and shareholder servicing fees
(applicable to Class A, Class C, Class R and Class S Shares), administrative
services fee (applicable to Class R and Class S Shares) and brokerage
commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, and extraordinary expenses
including, but not limited to, acquired fund fees and expenses) to the
extent such operating expenses exceed 0.99% until at least December 1, 2009.
Application of the expense waiver and its effect on annual fund operating
expenses is reflected, when applicable, in a footnote to the Annual Fund
Operating Expenses table in the "Comparison of Fees and Expenses" section of
this Prospectus/Information Statement, and additional information is
included under "Expense Limitations." The waiver is not reflected in the
contractual fee rate shown.

fund for cash invested in that money market fund under the Fund's money fund
sweep program.

The basis for the Trustees' approval of the current investment advisory
agreement for JAD Growth and Income Fund is included in JAD Growth and Income
Fund's unaudited Semiannual Report to shareholders dated January 31, 2009. The
basis for the Trustees' approval of the current investment advisory agreement
for JIF Growth and Income Fund is currently not available to shareholders, but
will be included in JIF Growth and Income Fund's unaudited Semiannual Report to
shareholders dated April 30, 2009. For a discussion regarding the basis for the
Trustees' approval of the prior investment advisory agreement for JIF Growth and
Income Fund, please refer to JIF Growth and Income Fund's unaudited Semiannual
Report to shareholders dated April 30, 2008.

ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES FEES

As noted above, upon the consummation of the Reorganization, Class A, Class
C, Class I, Class R and Class S Shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund will be
established with substantially the same class characteristics as the Class A,
Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S Shares of JAD Growth and Income Fund,
respectively. There will be no change in the terms of administrative services
fees paid by shareholders of Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S
Shares after the Reorganization.

Janus Services LLC, the transfer agent of the JAD Trust and the JIF Trust,
receives an administrative services fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the
average daily net assets of Class R and Class S Shares of each Fund for
providing, or arranging for the provision of, administrative services, including
recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked
accounts, or other shareholder services provided on behalf of investors. Order
processing includes the submission of transactions through the NSCC or similar
systems, or those processed on a manual basis with Janus Services LLC. Janus
Services LLC expects to use all or a significant portion of this fee to
compensate retirement plan service providers and other financial intermediaries
for providing these services to their customers who invest in the Funds.

With respect to transactions in or for administrative services provided to
Class A, Class C and Class I Shares of the Funds, certain intermediaries may
charge fees for administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting,
order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other shareholder
services provided by intermediaries on behalf of the shareholders of the Funds.
Order processing includes the submission of transactions through the NSCC or
similar systems or processed on a manual basis with Janus Services LLC. These
administrative fees are paid by Class A, Class C and Class I Shares of each Fund
to Janus Services LLC, which uses such fees to reimburse intermediaries. Because
the form and amount charged varies by intermediary, the amount of the
administrative fee borne by the class is an average of all fees charged by
intermediaries. In the event an intermediary receiving payments from Janus
Services LLC on behalf of a Fund converts from a networking structure to an
omnibus account structure or otherwise experiences increased costs, fees borne
by the shares may increase.

SECURITIES TO BE ISSUED, KEY DIFFERENCES IN SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS

JAD Growth and Income Fund is organized as a separate series of the JAD
Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, and is governed by an Amended and Restated
Trust Instrument ("JAD Trust Instrument") and JAD Bylaws. JIF Growth and Income
Fund is organized as a separate series of the JIF Trust, a Massachusetts
business trust, and is governed by an Amended and Restated Agreement and
Declaration of Trust dated March 18, 2003, as amended from time to time ("JIF
Trust Instrument") and JIF Bylaws.

All shares of a JIF fund participate equally in dividends and other
distributions by the shares of the same class of that fund, and in residual

fund have no preemptive, conversion, or appraisal rights. Shares of all funds in

customary, but a fund is not bound to recognize any transfer until it is
recorded on its books. The funds have the right to redeem, at the then current
NAV, the shares of any shareholder whose account does not meet certain minimum
requirements as described in the funds' prospectus(es).

LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("JCM").

All references in this Agreement to action taken by the Predecessor Fund or
the Successor Fund shall be deemed to refer to action taken by the JIF Trust or
JAD Trust on behalf of the respective portfolio series.

This Agreement is intended to be and is adopted as a plan of reorganization
and liquidation within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the United States
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The reorganization (the
"Reorganization") will consist of the transfer by the Predecessor Fund of all or
substantially all of its assets to the Successor Fund, in exchange solely for
[Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S] voting shares of beneficial
interest in the Successor Fund (the "Successor Fund Shares") having an aggregate
net asset value equal to the aggregate net asset value of the same class of
shares of the Predecessor Fund, the assumption by the Successor Fund of all the
liabilities of the Predecessor Fund, and the distribution of the [Class A, Class
C, Class I, Class R and Class S] Successor Fund Shares to the shareholders of
the Predecessor Fund in complete liquidation of the Predecessor Fund as provided
herein, all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this
Agreement.

WHEREAS, the Board of Trustees of each of the JAD Trust and the JIF Trust
has determined that it is in the best interest of the Predecessor Fund and the
Successor Fund, respectively, that the assets of the Predecessor Fund be
acquired by the Successor Fund pursuant to this Agreement and in accordance with
the applicable statutes of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the State of
Delaware, and that the interests of existing shareholders will not be diluted as
a result of this transaction;

WHEREAS, concurrently herewith, the Board of Trustees of each of the JAD
Trust and the JIF Trust are entering into separate Plans of Reorganization which
contemplate the reorganization of certain series of the JAD Trust into existing
series of the JIF Trust (each a "Preexisting Fund Reorganization"); and

WHEREAS, concurrently herewith, the Board of Trustees of each of the JAD
Trust and the JIF Trust are entering into separate Plans of Reorganization which
contemplate the reorganization of certain series of the JAD Trust into newly
created series of the JIF Trust (each a "Shell Reorganization").

A-1

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the covenants and
agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto covenant and agree as
follows:

1. PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

1.1 Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the JAD Trust
shall (i) transfer all or substantially all of the assets of the Predecessor
Fund, as set forth in paragraph 1.2, to the Successor Fund, (ii) the JIF Trust
shall cause the Successor Fund to deliver to the JAD Trust full and fractional
[Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S] Successor Fund Shares having an
aggregate net asset value equal to the value of the aggregate net assets of the
same class of shares of the Predecessor Fund as of the close of regular session
trading on the New York Stock Exchange on the Closing Date, as set forth in
paragraph 2.1 (the "Closing Date") and (iii) the JIF Trust shall cause the
Successor Fund to assume all liabilities of the Predecessor Fund, as set forth
in paragraph 1.2. Such transactions shall take place at the closing provided for
in paragraph 2.1 (the "Closing").

1.2 The assets of the Predecessor Fund to be acquired by the Successor
Fund shall consist of all property, including, without limitation, all cash,
securities, commodities and futures interests, and dividends or interest
receivable which are owned by the Predecessor Fund and any deferred or prepaid
expenses shown as an asset on the books of the Predecessor Fund on the Closing
Date. The Successor Fund will assume all of the liabilities, expenses, costs,
charges and reserves of the Predecessor Fund of any kind, whether absolute,
accrued, contingent or otherwise in existence on the Closing Date.

1.3 The Predecessor Fund will distribute pro rata to its shareholders of
record of the applicable classes, determined as of immediately after the close
of business on the Closing Date (the "Current Shareholders"), the [Class A,
Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S] Successor Fund Shares received by the JAD
Trust pursuant to paragraph 1.1. Such distribution and liquidation will be
accomplished by the transfer of the [Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and
Class S] Successor Fund Shares then credited to the accounts of the Predecessor
Fund on the books of the Successor Fund to open accounts on the share records of
the Successor Fund in the names of the Current Shareholders and representing the
respective pro rata number of the [Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class
S] Successor Fund Shares due to such shareholders. All issued and outstanding
shares of the Predecessor Fund will simultaneously be canceled on the books of
the JAD Trust. The Successor Fund shall not issue certificates representing the
[Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S] Successor Fund Shares in
connection with such exchange. Ownership of [Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R
and Class S] Successor Fund Shares will be shown on the books of the JIF Trust's
transfer agent. As soon as practicable after the Closing, the JAD Trust shall
take all steps necessary to effect a complete liquidation of the Predecessor
Fund.

ownership of outstanding shares of the Predecessor Fund owned by each such
shareholder immediately prior to the Closing. The Successor Fund shall issue and
deliver a confirmation evidencing the [Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and
Class S] Successor Fund Shares to be credited on the Closing Date to the
Secretary of the JAD Trust or provide evidence satisfactory to the JAD Trust
that such [Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S] Successor Fund Shares
have been credited to the accounts of the Predecessor Fund on the books of the
Successor Fund. At the Closing, each party shall deliver to the other such bills

APPENDIX B

OTHER INVESTMENT TECHNIQUES AND RELATED RISKS
OF THE FUNDS

Unless otherwise stated within its specific investment policies, each Fund
may also invest in other types of domestic and foreign securities and use other
investment strategies as described below. These securities and strategies are
not principal investment strategies of the Funds. If successful, they may
benefit the Funds by earning a return on the Funds' assets or reducing risk;
however, they may not achieve the Funds' objective. Additional information
regarding these investment techniques and risks is included in each Fund's
Statement of Additional Information. These securities and strategies may
include:

EQUITY AND DEBT SECURITIES

BANK LOANS include institutionally-traded floating and fixed-rate debt
securities generally acquired as a participation interest in or assignment of a
loan originated by a lender or financial institution. Assignments and
participations involve credit, interest rate, and liquidity risk. Interest rates
on floating rate securities adjust with interest rate changes and/or issuer
credit quality. If a Fund purchases a participation interest, it may only be
able to enforce its rights through the lender and may assume the credit risk of
both the borrower and the lender. Additional risks are involved in purchasing
assignments. If a loan is foreclosed, a Fund may become part owner of any
collateral securing the loan and may bear the costs and liabilities associated
with owning and disposing of any collateral. The Fund could be held liable as a
co-lender. In addition, there is no assurance that the liquidation of any
collateral from a secured loan would satisfy a borrower's obligations or that
any collateral could be liquidated. A Fund may have difficulty trading
assignments and participations to third parties or selling such securities in
secondary markets, which in turn may affect the Fund's NAV.

BONDS are debt securities issued by a company, municipality, government, or
government agency. The issuer of a bond is required to pay the holder the amount
of the loan (or par value of the bond) at a specified maturity and to make
scheduled interest payments.

CERTIFICATES OF PARTICIPATION ("COPS") are certificates representing an
interest in a pool of securities. Holders are entitled to a proportionate
interest in the underlying securities. Municipal lease obligations are often
sold in the form of COPs. Refer to "Municipal lease obligations" below.

COMMERCIAL PAPER is a short-term debt obligation with a maturity ranging
from 1 to 270 days issued by banks, corporations, and other borrowers to
investors seeking to invest idle cash. A Fund may purchase commercial paper
issued in private placements under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "1933 Act").

B-1

COMMON STOCKS are equity securities representing shares of ownership in a
company and usually carry voting rights and earn dividends. Unlike preferred
stock, dividends on common stock are not fixed but are declared at the
discretion of the issuer's board of directors.

CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES are preferred stocks or bonds that pay a fixed
dividend or interest payment and are convertible into common stock at a
specified price or conversion ratio.

DEBT SECURITIES are securities representing money borrowed that must be
repaid at a later date. Such securities have specific maturities and usually a
specific rate of interest or an original purchase discount.

DEPOSITARY RECEIPTS are receipts for shares of a foreign-based corporation
that entitle the holder to dividends and capital gains on the underlying
security. Receipts include those issued by domestic banks (American Depositary
Receipts), foreign banks (Global or European Depositary Receipts), and broker-
dealers (depositary shares).

EQUITY SECURITIES generally include domestic and foreign common stocks;
preferred stocks; securities convertible into common stocks or preferred stocks;
warrants to purchase common or preferred stocks; and other securities with
equity characteristics.

EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS are index-based investment companies which hold
substantially all of their assets in securities with equity characteristics. As
a shareholder of another investment company, a Fund would bear its pro rata
portion of the other investment company's expenses, including advisory fees, in
addition to the expenses the Fund bears directly in connection with its own
operations.

FIXED-INCOME SECURITIES are securities that pay a specified rate of return.
The term generally includes short- and long-term government, corporate, and
municipal obligations that pay a specified rate of interest, dividends, or
coupons for a specified period of time. Coupon and dividend rates may be fixed
for the life of the issue or, in the case of adjustable and floating rate
securities, for a shorter period.

HIGH-YIELD/HIGH-RISK BONDS are bonds that are rated below investment grade
by the primary rating agencies (i.e., BB+ or lower by Standard & Poor's and
Fitch, or Ba or lower by Moody's). Other terms commonly used to describe such
bonds include "lower rated bonds," "non-investment grade bonds," and "junk
bonds."

INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT BONDS are revenue bonds that are issued by a public
authority but which may be backed only by the credit and security of a private
issuer and may involve greater credit risk. Refer to "Municipal securities"
below.

MORTGAGE- AND ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES are shares in a pool of mortgages or
other debt instruments. These securities are generally pass-through securities,
which means that principal and interest payments on the underlying securities
(less servicing fees) are passed through to shareholders on a pro rata basis.
These securities involve prepayment risk, which is the risk that the underlying
mortgages or other debt may be refinanced or paid off prior to their maturities
during periods of declining interest rates. In that case, a

B-2

Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds from the securities at a lower rate.
Potential market gains on a security subject to prepayment risk may be more
limited than potential market gains on a comparable security that is not subject
to prepayment risk.

MORTGAGE DOLLAR ROLLS are transactions in which a Fund sells a mortgage-
related security, such as a security issued by GNMA, to a dealer and
simultaneously agrees to purchase a similar security (but not the same security)
in the future at a predetermined price. A "dollar roll" can be viewed as a
collateralized borrowing in which a Fund pledges a mortgage-related security to
a dealer to obtain cash.

MUNICIPAL LEASE OBLIGATIONS are revenue bonds backed by leases or
installment purchase contracts for property or equipment. Lease obligations may
not be backed by the issuing municipality's credit and may involve risks not
normally associated with general obligation bonds and other revenue bonds. For
example, their interest may become taxable if the lease is assigned and the
holders may incur losses if the issuer does not appropriate funds for the lease
payments on an annual basis, which may result in termination of the lease and
possible default.

MUNICIPAL SECURITIES are bonds or notes issued by a U.S. state or political
subdivision. A municipal security may be a general obligation backed by the full
faith and credit (i.e., the borrowing and taxing power) of a municipality or a
revenue obligation paid out of the revenues of a designated project, facility,
or revenue source.

PASS-THROUGH SECURITIES are shares or certificates of interest in a pool of
debt obligations that have been repackaged by an intermediary, such as a bank or
broker-dealer.

PASSIVE FOREIGN INVESTMENT COMPANIES (PFICS) are any foreign corporations
which generate certain amounts of passive income or hold certain amounts of
assets for the production of passive income. Passive income includes dividends,
interest, royalties, rents, and annuities. To avoid taxes and interest that a
Fund must pay if these investments are profitable, the Funds may make various
elections permitted by the tax laws. These elections could require that a Fund
recognize taxable income, which in turn must be distributed, before the
securities are sold and before cash is received to pay the distributions.

PAY-IN-KIND BONDS are debt securities that normally give the issuer an
option to pay cash at a coupon payment date or give the holder of the security a
similar bond with the same coupon rate and a face value equal to the amount of
the coupon payment that would have been made.

PREFERRED STOCKS are equity securities that generally pay dividends at a
specified rate and have preference over common stock in the payment of dividends
and liquidation. Preferred stock generally does not carry voting rights.

REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST (REIT) is an investment trust that operates
through the pooled capital of many investors who buy its shares. Investments are
in direct ownership of either income property or mortgage loans.

B-3

RULE 144A SECURITIES are securities that are not registered for sale to the
general public under the 1933 Act, but that may be resold to certain
institutional investors.

STANDBY COMMITMENT is a right to sell a specified underlying security or
securities within a specified period of time and at an exercise price equal to
the amortized cost of the underlying security or securities plus accrued
interest, if any, at the time of exercise, that may be sold, transferred, or
assigned only with the underlying security or securities. A standby commitment
entitles the holder to receive same day settlement, and will be considered to be
from the party to whom the investment company will look for payment of the
exercise price.

STEP COUPON BONDS are high-quality issues with above-market interest rates
and a coupon that increases over the life of the bond. They may pay monthly,
semiannual, or annual interest payments. On the date of each coupon payment, the
issuer decides whether to call the bond at par, or whether to extend it until
the next payment date at the new coupon rate.

STRIP BONDS are debt securities that are stripped of their interest
(usually by a financial intermediary) after the securities are issued. The
market value of these securities generally fluctuates more in response to
changes in interest rates than interest-paying securities of comparable
maturity.

TENDER OPTION BONDS are relatively long-term bonds that are coupled with
the option to tender the securities to a bank, broker-dealer, or other financial
institution at periodic intervals and receive the face value of the bond. This
investment structure is commonly used as a means of enhancing a security's
liquidity.

U.S. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES include direct obligations of the U.S.
Government that are supported by its full faith and credit. Treasury bills have
initial maturities of less than one year, Treasury notes have initial maturities
of one to ten years, and Treasury bonds may be issued with any maturity but
generally have maturities of at least ten years. U.S. Government securities also
include indirect obligations of the U.S. Government that are issued by federal
agencies and government sponsored entities. Unlike Treasury securities, agency
securities generally are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S.
Government. Some agency securities are supported by the right of the issuer to
borrow from the Treasury, others are supported by the discretionary authority of
the U.S. Government to purchase the agency's obligations, and others are
supported only by the credit of the sponsoring agency.

VARIABLE AND FLOATING RATE SECURITIES have variable or floating rates of
interest and, under certain limited circumstances, may have varying principal
amounts. Variable and floating rate securities pay interest at rates that are
adjusted periodically according to a specified formula, usually with reference
to some interest rate index or market interest rate (the "underlying index").
The floating rate tends to decrease the security's price sensitivity to changes
in interest rates.

WARRANTS are securities, typically issued with preferred stock or bonds,
which give the holder the right to buy a proportionate amount of common stock at
a specified price.

B-4

The specified price is usually higher than the market price at the time of
issuance of the warrant. The right may last for a period of years or
indefinitely.

ZERO COUPON BONDS are debt securities that do not pay regular interest at
regular intervals, but are issued at a discount from face value. The discount
approximates the total amount of interest the security will accrue from the date
of issuance to maturity. The market value of these securities generally
fluctuates more in response to changes in interest rates than interest-paying
securities.

FUTURES, OPTIONS, AND OTHER DERIVATIVES

CREDIT DEFAULT SWAPS are a specific kind of counterparty agreement that
allows the transfer of third party credit risk from one party to the other. One
party in the swap is a lender and faces credit risk from a third party, and the
counterparty in the credit default swap agrees to insure this risk in exchange
for regular periodic payments.

EQUITY-LINKED STRUCTURED NOTES are derivative securities which are
specially designed to combine the characteristics of one or more underlying
securities and their equity derivatives in a single note form. The return and/or
yield or income component may be based on the performance of the underlying
equity securities, an equity index, and/or option positions. Equity-linked
structured notes are typically offered in limited transactions by financial
institutions in either registered or non-registered form. An investment in
equity-linked notes creates exposure to the credit risk of the issuing financial
institution, as well as to the market risk of the underlying securities. There
is no guaranteed return of principal with these securities, and the appreciation
potential of these securities may be limited by a maximum payment or call right.
In certain cases, equity-linked notes may be more volatile and less liquid than
less complex securities or other types of fixed-income securities. Such
securities may exhibit price behavior that does not correlate with other fixed-
income securities.

EQUITY SWAPS involve the exchange by two parties of future cash flow (e.g.,
one cash flow based on a referenced interest rate and the other based on the
performance of stock or a stock index).

FORWARD CONTRACTS are contracts to purchase or sell a specified amount of a
financial instrument for an agreed upon price at a specified time. Forward
contracts are not currently exchange-traded and are typically negotiated on an
individual basis. A Fund may enter into forward currency contracts for
investment purposes or to hedge against declines in the value of securities
denominated in, or whose value is tied to, a currency other than the U.S. dollar
or to reduce the impact of currency appreciation on purchases of such
securities. It may also enter into forward contracts to purchase or sell
securities or other financial indices.

FUTURES CONTRACTS are contracts that obligate the buyer to receive and the
seller to deliver an instrument or money at a specified price on a specified
date. A Fund may buy and sell futures contracts on foreign currencies,
securities, and financial indices including indices of U.S. Government, foreign
government, equity, or fixed-income securities. A Fund may also buy options on
futures contracts. An option on a futures

B-5

contract gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a
futures contract at a specified price on or before a specified date. Futures
contracts and options on futures are standardized and traded on designated
exchanges.

INDEXED/STRUCTURED SECURITIES are typically short- to intermediate-term
debt securities whose value at maturity or interest rate is linked to
currencies, interest rates, equity securities, indices, commodity prices, or
other financial indicators. Such securities may be positively or negatively
indexed (e.g., their value may increase or decrease if the reference index or
instrument appreciates). Indexed/structured securities may have return
characteristics similar to direct investments in the underlying instruments and
may be more volatile than the underlying instruments. A Fund bears the market
risk of an investment in the underlying instruments, as well as the credit risk
of the issuer.

INTEREST RATE SWAPS involve the exchange by two parties of their respective
commitments to pay or receive interest (e.g., an exchange of floating rate
payments for fixed rate payments).

INVERSE FLOATERS are debt instruments whose interest rate bears an inverse
relationship to the interest rate on another instrument or index. For example,
upon reset, the interest rate payable on the inverse floater may go down when
the underlying index has risen. Certain inverse floaters may have an interest
rate reset mechanism that multiplies the effects of change in the underlying
index. Such mechanism may increase the volatility of the security's market
value.

OPTIONS are the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a specified
amount of securities or other assets on or before a fixed date at a
predetermined price. A Fund may purchase and write put and call options on
securities, securities indices, and foreign currencies. A Fund may purchase or
write such options individually or in combination.

PARTICIPATORY NOTES are derivative securities which are linked to the
performance of an underlying Indian security and which allow investors to gain
market exposure to Indian securities without trading directly in the local
Indian market.

TOTAL RETURN SWAPS involve an exchange by two parties in which one party
makes payments based on a set rate, either fixed or variable, while the other
party makes payments based on the return of an underlying asset, which includes
both the income it generates and any capital gains over the payment period.

OTHER INVESTMENTS, STRATEGIES, AND/OR TECHNIQUES

CASH SWEEP PROGRAM is an arrangement in which a Fund's uninvested cash
balance is used to purchase shares of affiliated or non-affiliated money market
funds or cash management pooled investment vehicles at the end of each day.

INDUSTRY CONCENTRATION for purposes under the 1940 Act is the investment of
more than 25% of a Fund's total assets in an industry or group of industries.

MARKET CAPITALIZATION is the most commonly used measure of the size and
value of a company. It is computed by multiplying the current market price of a
share of the

B-6

company's stock by the total number of its shares outstanding. Market
capitalization is an important investment criterion for certain funds, while
others do not emphasize investments in companies of any particular size.

NONDIVERSIFICATION is a classification given to a fund under the 1940 Act.
Funds are classified as either "diversified" or "nondiversified." To be
classified as "diversified" under the 1940 Act, a fund may not, with respect to
75% of its total assets, invest more than 5% of its total assets in any issuer
and may not own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of an issuer.
A fund that is classified under the 1940 Act as "nondiversified," on the other
hand, is not subject to the same restrictions and therefore has the flexibility
to take larger positions in a smaller number of issuers than a fund that is
classified as "diversified." This gives a "nondiversified" fund more flexibility
to focus its investments in companies that the portfolio managers and/or
investment personnel have identified as the most attractive for the investment
objective and strategy of a fund but also may increase the risk of a fund.

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS involve the purchase of a security by a Fund and a
simultaneous agreement by the seller (generally a bank or dealer) to repurchase
the security from the Fund at a specified date or upon demand. This technique
offers a method of earning income on idle cash. These securities involve the
risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that
case, a Fund will bear the risk of market value fluctuations until the security
can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the
security.

REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS involve the sale of a security by a Fund to
another party (generally a bank or dealer) in return for cash and an agreement
by the Fund to buy the security back at a specified price and time. This
technique will be used primarily to provide cash to satisfy unusually high
redemption requests, or for other temporary or emergency purposes.

SHORT SALES in which a Fund may engage may be either "short sales against
the box" or other short sales. Short sales against the box involve selling short
a security that a Fund owns, or the Fund has the right to obtain the amount of
the security sold short at a specified date in the future. A Fund may also enter
into a short sale to hedge against anticipated declines in the market price of a
security or to reduce portfolio volatility. If the value of a security sold
short increases prior to the scheduled delivery date, the Fund loses the
opportunity to participate in the gain. For short sales, the Fund will incur a
loss if the value of a security increases during this period because it will be
paying more for the security than it has received from the purchaser in the
short sale. If the price declines during this period, a Fund will realize a
short-term capital gain. Although a Fund's potential for gain as a result of a
short sale is limited to the price at which it sold the security short less the
cost of borrowing the security, its potential for loss is theoretically
unlimited because there is no limit to the cost of replacing the borrowed
security.

B-7

WHEN-ISSUED, DELAYED DELIVERY, AND FORWARD COMMITMENT TRANSACTIONS
generally involve the purchase of a security with payment and delivery at some
time in the future - i.e., beyond normal settlement. A Fund does not earn
interest on such securities until settlement and bears the risk of market value
fluctuations in between the purchase and settlement dates. New issues of stocks
and bonds, private placements, and U.S. Government securities may be sold in
this manner.

B-8

APPENDIX C

SHAREHOLDER'S GUIDE

This Prospectus/Information Statement relates to five separate classes of
shares ("Shares"): Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S of Janus
Growth and Income Fund (the "JIF Growth and Income Fund"), a series of Janus
Investment Fund (the "Trust"). JIF Growth and Income Fund currently does not
offer shares of any of these classes. However, upon consummation of the
reorganization of Janus Adviser Growth and Income Fund with and into JIF Growth
and Income Fund (the "Reorganization"), JIF Growth and Income Fund will complete
the registration of Shares of these classes pursuant to the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and start
offering these shares. JIF Growth and Income Fund currently only offers one
class of shares (the "Initial Class"), which is not offered in this
Prospectus/Information Statement. Please refer to JIF Growth and Income Fund's
prospectus dated February 27, 2009 (the "JIF Growth and Income Fund's
Prospectus") for information about shares of this Initial Class. You can obtain
a free copy of that document by contacting your broker-dealer, plan sponsor, or
financial intermediary or by calling a Janus representative at 1-877-335-2687.
The information below relates to classes of JIF Growth and Income Fund as of the
date they are created.

PURCHASE PROCEDURES, EXCHANGE RIGHTS, AND REDEMPTION PROCEDURES

Investors may not purchase, exchange, or redeem Class A, Class C, Class R
and Class S Shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund directly. Shares may be
purchased, exchanged, or redeemed only through retirement plans, broker-dealers,
bank trust departments, financial advisers, or other financial intermediaries.
Class A and Class C Shares made available through full service broker-dealers
are primarily available only through wrap accounts under which such broker-
dealers impose additional fees for services connected to the wrap account. Class
S Shares are only available to broker-dealers in connection with their
customers' investment in the Shares through (1) retirement plans and (2) asset
allocation, wrap fee, fee-in-lieu of commission, or other discretionary or
nondiscretionary investment advisory programs under which such broker-dealers
charge asset-based fees. This restriction on Class S Shares does not apply to
broker-dealers that had existing agreements to purchase the Shares on behalf of
their customers prior to September 30, 2004. Not all financial intermediaries
offer all classes of shares. CONTACT YOUR FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARY OR REFER TO
YOUR PLAN DOCUMENTS FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO PURCHASE, EXCHANGE, OR REDEEM
SHARES.

Class I Shares may generally be purchased, exchanged, or redeemed only
through the following types of financial intermediaries and by certain
institutional investors. Class I Shares are offered through financial
intermediaries (including, but not limited to, broker-dealers, retirement plans,
bank trust departments, and financial advisors) who do not require payment from
JIF Growth and Income Fund or its service providers for the provision of
distribution or shareholder retention services, except for administrative

C-1

(networking, omnibus positioning) fees. Administrative (networking, omnibus
positioning) fees may be paid by JIF Growth and Income Fund to financial
intermediaries for Class I Shares processed through certain securities clearing
systems. Institutional investors may include, but are not limited to,
corporations, retirement plans, public plans, and foundations/endowments. Class
I Shares are not offered directly to individual investors. Not all financial
intermediaries offer all classes of shares. FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO PURCHASE,
EXCHANGE, OR REDEEM SHARES, CONTACT YOUR FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARY, A JANUS
REPRESENTATIVE AT 1-800-333-1181, OR REFER TO YOUR PLAN DOCUMENTS.

With certain limited exceptions, JIF Growth and Income Fund is available
only to U.S. citizens or residents.

PRICING OF JIF GROWTH AND INCOME FUND SHARES

The per share net asset value ("NAV") for each class is computed by
dividing the total value of assets allocated to the class, less liabilities
allocated to that class, by the total number of outstanding shares of the class.
JIF Growth and Income Fund's NAV is calculated as of the close of the regular
trading session of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") (normally 4:00 p.m. New
York time) each day that the NYSE is open ("business day"). However, the NAV may
be calculated earlier if trading on the NYSE is restricted, or as permitted by
the SEC. Because foreign securities markets may operate on days that are not
business days in the United States, the value of JIF Growth and Income Fund's
holdings may change on days that are not business days in the United States and
on which you will not be able to purchase or redeem JIF Growth and Income Fund's
Shares.

The price you pay for purchases of Class A Shares and Class C Shares is the
public offering price, which is the NAV next determined after your order is
received in good order by JIF Growth and Income Fund or its agent, plus, for
Class A Shares, any applicable initial sales charge. The price you pay to sell
Class A Shares and Class C Shares is also the NAV, although a contingent
deferred sales charge may be taken out of the proceeds. All purchases and
redemptions of Class I Shares, Class R Shares and Class S Shares will be duly
processed at the NAV next calculated after your request is received in good
order by JIF Growth and Income Fund or its agent. Your financial intermediary
may charge you a separate or additional fee for processing purchases and
redemptions of Shares. In order to receive a day's price, your order must be
received in good order by JIF Growth and Income Fund or its agent by the close
of the regular trading session of the NYSE.

Securities held by JIF Growth and Income Fund are generally valued at
market value. Certain short-term instruments maturing within 60 days or less are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. If a market quotation
for a security is not readily available or is deemed unreliable, or if an event
that is expected to affect the value of the security occurs after the close of
the principal exchange or market on which the security is traded, and before the
close of the NYSE, a fair value of the security (except for short-term
instruments maturing within 60 days or less) will be determined in good faith
under policies and procedures established by and under the supervision of

C-2

JIF Growth and Income Fund's Board of Trustees. Such events include, but are not
limited to: (i) a significant event that may affect the securities of a single
issuer, such as a merger, bankruptcy, or significant issuer-specific
development; (ii) an event that may affect an entire market, such as a natural
disaster or significant governmental action; and (iii) a non-significant event
such as a market closing early or not opening, or a security trading halt. JIF
Growth and Income Fund may use a systematic fair valuation model provided by an
independent pricing service to value foreign equity securities in order to
adjust for stale pricing, which may occur between the close of certain foreign
exchanges and the close of the NYSE. While fair value pricing may be more
commonly used with foreign equity securities, it may also be used with, among
other things, thinly-traded domestic securities or fixed-income securities.

Due to the subjective nature of fair value pricing, JIF Growth and Income
Fund's value for a particular security may be different from the last quoted
market price. Fair value pricing may reduce arbitrage activity involving the
frequent buying and selling of mutual fund shares by investors seeking to take
advantage of a perceived lag between a change in the value of JIF Growth and
Income Fund's portfolio securities and the reflection of such change in JIF
Growth and Income Fund's NAV, as further described in the "Excessive Trading"
section in this Appendix C. While funds that invest in foreign securities may be
at a greater risk for arbitrage activity, such activity may also arise in funds
which do not invest in foreign securities, for example, when trading in a
security held by a fund is halted and does not resume prior to the time the fund
calculates its NAV (referred to as "stale pricing"). Funds that hold thinly-
traded securities, such as certain small-capitalization securities, may be
subject to attempted use of arbitrage techniques. To the extent that JIF Growth
and Income Fund's valuation of a security is different from the security's
market value, short-term arbitrage traders may dilute the NAV of JIF Growth and
Income Fund, which negatively impacts long-term shareholders. JIF Growth and
Income Fund's fair value pricing and excessive trading policies and procedures
may not completely eliminate short-term trading in certain omnibus accounts and
other accounts traded through intermediaries.

The value of the securities of other open-end funds held by JIF Growth and
Income Fund, if any, will be calculated using the NAV of such underlying funds,
and the prospectuses for such open-end funds explain the circumstances under
which they use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing.

If you hold Class I Shares in an account through a financial intermediary
or plan sponsor or if you hold Shares of Class A, Class C, Class R or Class S,
all purchases, exchanges, redemptions, or other account activity must be
processed through your financial intermediary or plan sponsor. Your financial
intermediary or plan sponsor is responsible for promptly transmitting purchase,
redemption, and other requests to JIF Growth and Income Fund under the
arrangements made between your financial intermediary or plan sponsor and its
customers. JIF Growth and Income Fund is not responsible for the failure of any
financial intermediary or plan sponsor to carry out its obligations to its
customers.

C-3

CHOOSING A SHARE CLASS

As noted above, upon the closing of the Reorganization, and subject to
certain contingencies, JIF Growth and Income Fund will start offering shares of
Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R and Class S. Each class represents an
interest in the same portfolio of investments, but has different charges and
expenses, allowing you to choose the class that best meets your needs. When
choosing a share class, you should consider:

- how much you plan to invest;
- how long you expect to own the shares;
- the expenses paid by each class; and
- whether you qualify for any reduction or waiver of any sales charges.

You should also consult your financial intermediary about which class is
most suitable for you. The following table summarizes some of the factors you
should consider with respect to each class of shares.*

DISTRIBUTION, SERVICING, AND ADMINISTRATIVE FEES

DISTRIBUTION AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICING PLANS

Under distribution and shareholder servicing plans adopted in accordance
with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act for Class A Shares and Class C Shares (the
"Class A Plan" and "Class C Plan," respectively), JIF Growth and Income Fund may
pay Janus Distributors LLC, the Trust's distributor ("Janus Distributors"), a
fee for the sale and distribution of Class A Shares and Class C Shares at an
annual rate up to 0.25% and 1.00% of the average daily net assets of Class A
Shares and Class C Shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund, respectively. Under the
Class A and the Class C Plans, Janus Distributors may pay all or a portion of
12b-1 fees to retirement plan service providers, broker-dealers, bank trust
departments, financial advisors, and other financial intermediaries, as
compensation for distribution and shareholder account services performed by such
entities for their customers who are investors in JIF Growth and Income Fund.

Under a distribution and shareholder servicing plan adopted in accordance
with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act for Class R Shares and Class S Shares (the
"Class R Plan" and "Class S Plan," respectively), JIF Growth and Income Fund may
pay Janus Distributors a fee for the sale and distribution of Class R Shares and
Class S Shares at an annual rate of up to 0.50% and 0.25% of the average daily
net assets of Class R Shares and Class S Shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund,
respectively. Under the terms of the Class R and Class S Plans, the Trust is
authorized to make payments to Janus Distributors for remittance to retirement
plan service providers, broker-dealers, bank trust departments, financial
advisors, and other financial intermediaries, as compensation for distribution
and shareholder account services performed by such entities for their customers
who are investors in JIF Growth and Income Fund.

Financial intermediaries may from time to time be required to meet certain
criteria in order to receive 12b-1 fees. Janus Distributors is entitled to
retain all fees paid under the Class C Plan for the first 12 months on any
investment in Class C Shares to recoup its expenses with respect to the payment
of commissions on sales of Class C Shares. Financial intermediaries will become
eligible for compensation under the Class C Plan beginning in the 13th month
following the purchase of Class C Shares, although Janus Distributors may,
pursuant to a written agreement between Janus Distributors and a particular
financial intermediary, pay such financial intermediary 12b-1 fees prior to the
13th month following the purchase of Class C Shares. Janus Distributors is
entitled to retain some or all fees payable under the Class A, Class C, Class R
and Class S Plans in certain circumstances, including when there is no broker of
record or when certain qualification standards have not been met by the broker
of record. Because 12b-1 fees are paid out of JIF Growth and Income Fund's
assets on an ongoing basis, over time they will increase the cost of your
investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.

C-5

ADMINISTRATIVE FEES - CLASS A, CLASS C AND CLASS I SHARES

Certain intermediaries may charge fees for administrative services,
including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or
networked accounts, or other shareholder services provided by intermediaries on
behalf of the shareholders of JIF Growth and Income Fund. Order processing
includes the submission of transactions through the National Securities Clearing
Corporation ("NSCC") or similar systems, or those processed on a manual basis
with Janus. These administrative fees are paid by the Shares of JIF Growth and
Income Fund to Janus Services LLC ("Janus Services"), which uses such fees to
reimburse intermediaries. Because the form and amount charged varies by
intermediary, the amount of the administrative fee borne by the class is an
average of all fees charged by intermediaries. In the event an intermediary
receiving payments from Janus Services on behalf of JIF Growth and Income Fund
converts from a networking structure to an omnibus account structure, or
otherwise experiences increased costs, fees borne by the Shares may increase.

ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES FEE - CLASS R AND CLASS S SHARES

Janus Services, the Trust's transfer agent, receives an administrative
services fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of
Class R Shares and Class S Shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund for providing,
or arranging for the provision of, administrative services, including
recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked
accounts, or other shareholder services provided on behalf of investors. Order
processing includes the submission of transactions through the NSCC or similar
systems, or those processed on a manual basis with Janus. Janus Services expects
to use all or a significant portion of this fee to compensate retirement plan
service providers and other financial intermediaries for providing these
services to their customers who invest in JIF Growth and Income Fund.

PURCHASES

Purchases of Class A, Class C, Class R or Class S Shares may generally be
made only through institutional channels such as retirement plans, broker-
dealers, and other financial intermediaries. Contact your financial intermediary
or refer to your plan documents for information on how to invest in JIF Growth
and Income Fund, including additional information on minimum initial or
subsequent investment requirements.

Purchases of Class I Shares may generally be made only through financial
intermediaries and by certain institutional investors. Contact your financial
intermediary, a Janus representative (1-800-333-1181), or refer to your plan
documents for information on how to invest in JIF Growth and Income Fund,
including additional information on minimum initial or subsequent investment
requirements.

Your financial intermediary may charge you a separate or additional fee for
purchases of Shares. Only certain financial intermediaries are authorized to
receive purchase orders on JIF Growth and Income Fund's behalf. As discussed
under the section titled "The Reorganization - Other Comparative Information
about the Funds"

C-6

in this Prospectus/Information Statement, Janus Capital Management LLC ("Janus
Capital"), JIF Growth and Income Fund's investment adviser, and its affiliates
may make payments to brokerage firms or other financial intermediaries that were
instrumental in the acquisition or retention of shareholders for JIF Growth and
Income Fund or that provide services in connection with investments in JIF
Growth and Income Fund. You should consider such arrangements when evaluating
any recommendation of JIF Growth and Income Fund.

JIF Growth and Income Fund reserves the right to reject any purchase order,
including exchange purchases, for any reason. JIF Growth and Income Fund is not
intended for excessive trading. For more information about JIF Growth and Income
Fund's policy on excessive trading, refer to the "Excessive Trading" section in
this Appendix C.

In compliance with the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing
Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 ("USA
PATRIOT Act"), your financial intermediary is required to verify certain
information on your account application as part of its Anti-Money Laundering
Program. You will be required to provide your full name, date of birth, social
security number, and permanent street address to assist in verifying your
identity. You may also be asked to provide documents that may help to establish
your identity. Until verification of your identity is made, your financial
intermediary may temporarily limit additional share purchases. In addition, your
financial intermediary may close an account if they are unable to verify a
shareholder's identity. Please contact your financial intermediary if you need
additional assistance when completing your application or additional information
about the intermediary's Anti-Money Laundering Program.

MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM INVESTMENT REQUIREMENTS

The minimum investment for Class A Shares, Class C Shares and Class S
Shares is $2,500 per JIF Growth and Income Fund account for non-retirement
accounts and $500 per JIF Growth and Income Fund account for certain tax-
deferred accounts or UGMA/UTMA accounts. Investors in a defined contribution
plan through a third party administrator should refer to their plan document or
contact their plan administrator for additional information. In addition,
accounts held through certain wrap programs may not be subject to these
minimums. Investors should refer to their intermediary for additional
information.

The minimum investment for Class I Shares is $1 million for institutional
investors. Institutional investors generally may meet the minimum investment
amount by aggregating multiple accounts within JIF Growth and Income Fund.
Accounts offered through an intermediary institution must meet the minimum
investment requirements of $500 for tax-deferred accounts and $2,500 for other
account types. Directors, officers, and employees of Janus Capital Group Inc.
("JCGI") and its affiliates, as well as Trustees and officers of JIF Growth and
Income Fund, may purchase Class I Shares through certain financial
intermediaries' institutional platforms. For more information about this program
and eligibility requirements, please contact a Janus representative at

C-7

1-800-333-1181. Exceptions to these minimums may apply for certain tax-deferred,
tax-qualified and retirement plans, and accounts held through certain wrap
programs. For additional information, contact your intermediary, plan sponsor,
administrator, or a Janus representative, as applicable.

With respect to Class R Shares, investors in a defined contribution plan
through a third party administrator should refer to their plan document or
contact their plan administrator for information regarding account minimums. For
all other account types, the minimum investment is $2,500.

JIF Growth and Income Fund reserves the right to annually request that
intermediaries close JIF Growth and Income Fund accounts that are valued at less
than $100, other than as a result solely of depreciation in share value. Certain
accounts held through intermediaries may not be subject to closure due to the
policies of the intermediaries. You may receive written notice from your
intermediary to increase your account balance to the required minimum to avoid
having your account closed. If you hold Class I Shares directly with JIF Growth
and Income Fund, you may receive written notice prior to the closure of your JIF
Growth and Income Fund account so that you may increase your account balance to
the required minimum. Please note that you may incur a tax liability as a result
of a redemption.

The maximum purchase in Class C Shares is $500,000 for any single purchase.
There is no limitation on maximum purchase of Class A, Class I, Class R and
Class S Shares.

JIF Growth and Income Fund reserves the right to change the amount of these
minimums or maximums from time to time or to waive them in whole or in part.

SYSTEMATIC PURCHASE PLAN

You may arrange for periodic purchases by authorizing your financial
intermediary (or a Janus representative, if you are a holder of Class I Shares
and you hold Class I Shares directly with JIF Growth and Income Fund) to
withdraw the amount of your investment from your bank account on a day or days
you specify. Not all financial intermediaries offer this plan. Contact your
financial intermediary for details.

CLASS A SHARES SALES CHARGE

An initial sales charge may apply to your purchase of Class A Shares of JIF
Growth and Income Fund based on the amount invested, as set forth in the table
below. The sales charge is allocated between Janus Distributors and your
financial intermediary. Sales charges, as expressed as a percentage of offering
price and as a percentage of your net investment, are shown in the table. The
dollar amount of your initial sales charge is calculated as the difference
between the public offering price and the net asset value of those shares. Since
the offering price is calculated to two decimal places using standard rounding
criteria, the number of shares purchased and the dollar amount of your sales
charge as a percentage of the offering price and of your net investment may be
higher or

C-8

lower than the amounts set forth in the table depending on whether there was a
downward or upward rounding.

<Table>

(1) Offering price includes the initial sales charge.
(2) Compared to Class C Shares, the sales charge and expense structure of Class
A Shares may be more advantageous for investors purchasing more than
$500,000 of JIF Growth and Income Fund shares.
(3) A deferred sales charge of 1.00% may apply to Class A Shares purchased
without an initial sales charge if redeemed within 12 months of purchase.

Janus Distributors may pay financial intermediaries commissions on
purchases of Class A Shares as follows:

- 1.00% on amounts from $1,000,000 to $4,000,000;
- plus 0.50% on amounts greater than $4,000,000 to $10,000,000;
- plus 0.25% on amounts over $10,000,000.

The purchase totals eligible for these commissions are aggregated on a
rolling one year basis so that the rate payable resets to the highest rate
annually.

QUALIFYING FOR A REDUCTION OR WAIVER OF CLASS A SHARES SALES CHARGE

You may be able to lower your Class A Shares sales charge under certain
circumstances. For example, you can combine Class A Shares and Class C Shares
you already own (either in this JIF Growth and Income Fund or certain other
Janus funds) with your current purchase of Class A Shares of JIF Growth and
Income Fund and certain other Janus funds (including Class C Shares of those
funds) to take advantage of the breakpoints in the sales charge schedule as set
forth above. Certain circumstances under which you may combine such ownership of
Shares and purchases are described below. Contact your financial intermediary
for more information.

Class A Shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund may be purchased without an
initial sales charge by the following persons (and their spouses and children
under 21 years of age): (i) registered representatives and other employees of
intermediaries that have selling agreements with Janus Distributors to sell
Class A Shares; (ii) directors, officers, and employees of JCGI and its
affiliates; and (iii) trustees and officers of the Trust. In addition, the
initial sales charge may be waived on purchases of Class A Shares

C-9

through financial intermediaries that have entered into an agreement with Janus
Distributors that allows the waiver of the sales charge.

In order to obtain a sales charge discount, you should inform your
financial intermediary of other accounts in which there are JIF Growth and
Income Fund holdings eligible to be aggregated to meet a sales charge
breakpoint. These other accounts may include the accounts described under
"Aggregating Accounts" below. You may need to provide documents such as account
statements or confirmation statements to prove that the accounts are eligible
for aggregation. The Letter of Intent described below requires historical cost
information in certain circumstances. You should retain records necessary to
show the price you paid to purchase JIF Growth and Income Fund shares, as JIF
Growth and Income Fund, its agents, or your financial intermediary may not
retain this information.

RIGHT OF ACCUMULATION. You may purchase Class A Shares of JIF Growth and
Income Fund at a reduced sales charge determined by aggregating the dollar
amount of the new purchase (measured by the offering price) and the total prior
day's net asset value (net amount invested) of all Class A Shares of JIF Growth
and Income Fund and of certain other classes (Class A Shares and Class C Shares
of the Trust) of Janus funds then held by you, or held in accounts identified
under "Aggregating Accounts" below, and applying the sales charge applicable to
such aggregate amount. In order for your purchases and holdings to be aggregated
for purposes of qualifying for such discount, they must have been made through
one financial intermediary and you must provide sufficient information to your
financial intermediary at the time of purchase to permit verification that the
purchase qualifies for the reduced sales charge. The right of accumulation is
subject to modification or discontinuance at any time with respect to all shares
purchased thereafter.

LETTER OF INTENT. You may obtain a reduced sales charge on Class A Shares
by signing a Letter of Intent indicating your intention to purchase $50,000 or
more of Class A Shares (including Class A Shares in other series of the Trust)
over a 13-month period. The term of the Letter of Intent will commence upon the
date you sign the Letter of Intent. You must refer to such Letter when placing
orders. With regard to a Letter of Intent, the amount of investment for purposes
of applying the sales load schedule includes (i) the historical cost (what you
actually paid for the shares at the time of purchase, including any sales
charges) of all Class A Shares acquired during the term of the Letter of Intent,
minus (ii) the value of any redemptions of Class A Shares made during the term
of the Letter of Intent. Each investment made during the period receives the
reduced sales charge applicable to the total amount of the investment goal. A
portion of shares purchased may be held in escrow to pay for any sales charge
that may be applicable. If the goal is not achieved within the period, you must
pay the difference between the sales charges applicable to the purchases made
and the charges previously paid, or an appropriate number of escrowed shares
will be redeemed. Please contact your financial intermediary to obtain a Letter
of Intent application.

AGGREGATING ACCOUNTS. To take advantage of lower Class A Shares sales
charges on large purchases or through the exercise of a Letter of Intent or
right of

C-10

accumulation, investments made by you, your spouse, and your children under age
21 may be aggregated if made for your own account(s) and/or certain other
accounts such as:

- trust accounts established by the above individuals (or the accounts of
the primary beneficiary of the trust if the person who established the
trust is deceased);
- solely controlled business accounts; and
- single participant retirement plans.

To receive a reduced sales charge under rights of accumulation or a Letter
of Intent, you must notify your financial intermediary of any eligible accounts
that you, your spouse, and your children under age 21 have at the time of your
purchase.

You may access information regarding sales loads, breakpoint discounts, and
purchases of JIF Growth and Income Fund's shares, free of charge, and in a clear
and prominent format, at janus.com/breakpoints, and by following the appropriate
hyperlinks to the specific information.

COMMISSION ON CLASS C SHARES

Janus Distributors may compensate your financial intermediary at the time
of sale at a commission rate of 1.00% of the net asset value of the Class C
Shares purchased. Service providers to qualified plans will not receive this
amount if they receive 12b-1 fees from the time of initial investment of
qualified plan assets in Class C Shares.

EXCHANGES

Contact your financial intermediary or consult your plan documents to
exchange into other funds in the Trust. Be sure to read the prospectus of the
fund into which you are exchanging. An exchange is generally a taxable
transaction (except for certain tax-deferred accounts).

- You may generally exchange shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund for
shares of the same class of any other fund in the Trust offered through
your financial intermediary or qualified plan.
- You must meet the minimum investment amount for each fund.
- JIF Growth and Income Fund reserves the right to reject any exchange
request and to modify or terminate the exchange privilege at any time.
- The exchange privilege is not intended as a vehicle for short-term or
excessive trading. JIF Growth and Income Fund may suspend or terminate
your exchange privilege if you engage in an excessive pattern of
exchanges.
- With respect to exchange of Class I Shares, accounts holding Class I
Shares directly with JIF Growth and Income Fund may make up to four round
trips in JIF Growth and Income Fund in a 12-month period, although JIF
Growth and Income Fund at all times reserves the right to reject any
exchange purchase for any reason without prior notice. Generally, a
"round trip" is a redemption out of JIF Growth and Income Fund (by any
means) followed by a purchase back into JIF Growth

C-11

and Income Fund (by any means). JIF Growth and Income Fund will work with
intermediaries to apply JIF Growth and Income Fund's exchange limit.
However, JIF Growth and Income Fund may not always have the ability to
monitor or enforce the trading activity in such accounts.
- For more information about JIF Growth and Income Fund's policy on
excessive trading, refer to the "Excessive Trading" section in this
Appendix C.

WAIVER OF SALES CHARGES

Class A Shares received through an exchange of Class A Shares of another
fund of the Trust will not be subject to any initial sales charge of JIF Growth
and Income Fund's Class A Shares. Class A Shares or Class C Shares received
through an exchange of Class A Shares or Class C Shares, respectively, of
another fund of the Trust will not be subject to any applicable contingent
deferred sales charge ("CDSC") at the time of the exchange. Any CDSC applicable
to redemptions of Class A Shares or Class C Shares will continue to be measured
on the Shares received by exchange from the date of your original purchase. For
more information about the CDSC, please refer to "Redemptions." While Class C
Shares do not have any front-end sales charges, their higher annual fund
operating expenses mean that over time, you could end up paying more than the
equivalent of the maximum allowable front-end sales charge.

REDEMPTIONS

Redemptions, like purchases, of Class A, Class C, Class R and Class S
Shares may generally be effected only through retirement plans, broker-dealers,
and financial intermediaries. Please contact your financial intermediary or
refer to the appropriate plan documents for details.

Redemptions, like purchases, of Class I Shares may generally be effected
only through financial intermediaries and by certain institutional investors.
Please contact your financial intermediary, a Janus representative (1-800-333-
1181), or refer to the appropriate plan documents for details.

Your financial intermediary may charge a processing or service fee in
connection with the redemption of Shares.

Shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund may be redeemed on any business day on
which JIF Growth and Income Fund's NAV is calculated. Redemptions are duly
processed at the NAV next calculated after your redemption order is received in
good order by JIF Growth and Income Fund or its agent. Redemption proceeds, less
any applicable CDSC for Class A Shares and Class C Shares, will normally be sent
the business day following receipt of the redemption order.

If you hold Class A, Class C, Class I or Class S Shares, you should note
that JIF Growth and Income Fund reserves the right to annually request that
intermediaries close JIF Growth and Income Fund accounts that are valued at less
than $100, other than as a result solely of depreciation in share value. Certain
accounts held through intermediaries may not be subject to closure due to the
policies of the intermediaries. You may receive

C-12

written notice from your intermediary to increase your account balance to the
required minimum to avoid having your account closed. In addition, if you hold
Class I Shares directly with JIF Growth and Income Fund, you may receive written
notice prior to the closure of your JIF Growth and Income Fund account so that
you may increase your account balance to the required minimum. Please note that
you may incur a tax liability as a result of a redemption.

REDEMPTIONS IN-KIND

Shares normally will be redeemed for cash, although JIF Growth and Income
Fund retains the right to redeem some or all of its shares in-kind under unusual
circumstances, in order to protect the interests of remaining shareholders, to
accommodate a request by a particular shareholder that does not adversely affect
the interest of the remaining shareholders, or in connection with the
liquidation of a fund, by delivery of securities selected from its assets at its
discretion. However, JIF Growth and Income Fund is required to redeem shares
solely for cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the NAV of JIF Growth and
Income Fund during any 90-day period for any one shareholder. Should redemptions
by any shareholder exceed such limitation, JIF Growth and Income Fund will have
the option of redeeming the excess in cash or in-kind. In-kind payment means
payment will be made in portfolio securities rather than cash. If this occurs,
the redeeming shareholder might incur brokerage or other transaction costs to
convert the securities to cash.

SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN

You may arrange for periodic redemptions of Class A Shares or Class C
Shares by authorizing your financial intermediary to redeem a specified amount
from your account on a day or days you specify. Any resulting CDSC may be waived
through financial intermediaries that have entered into an agreement with Janus
Distributors. The maximum annual rate at which shares subject to a CDSC may be
redeemed, pursuant to a systematic withdrawal plan, without paying a CDSC, is
12% of the net asset value of the account. Certain other terms and minimums may
apply. Not all financial intermediaries offer this plan. Contact your financial
intermediary for details.

You may arrange for periodic redemptions of Class I Shares by authorizing
your financial intermediary (or a Janus representative, if you hold Shares
directly with JIF Growth and Income Fund) to redeem a specified amount from your
account on a day or days you specify. Not all financial intermediaries offer
this plan. Contact your financial intermediary or a Janus representative for
details.

You may arrange for periodic redemptions of Class R Shares or Class S
Shares by authorizing your financial intermediary to redeem a specified amount
from your account on a day or days you specify. Not all financial intermediaries
offer this plan. Contact your financial intermediary for details.

C-13

CLASS A SHARES AND CLASS C SHARES CDSC

A 1.00% CDSC may be deducted with respect to Class A Shares purchased
without an initial sales charge if redeemed within 12 months of purchase, unless
any of the CDSC waivers listed below apply. A 1.00% CDSC will be deducted with
respect to Class C Shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase, unless a CDSC
waiver applies. The CDSC will be based on the lower of the original purchase
price or the value of the redemption of the Class A Shares or Class C Shares
redeemed, as applicable.

CDSC WAIVERS

There are certain cases in which you may be exempt from a CDSC charged to
Class A Shares and Class C Shares. Among others, these include:

- Upon the death or disability of an account owner;
- Retirement plans and certain other accounts held through a financial
intermediary that has entered into an agreement with Janus Distributors
to waive CDSCs for such accounts;
- Retirement plan shareholders taking required minimum distributions;
- The redemption of Class A Shares or Class C Shares acquired through
reinvestment of JIF Growth and Income Fund dividends or distributions;
- The portion of the redemption representing appreciation as a result of an
increase in NAV above the total amount of payments for Class A Shares or
Class C Shares during the period during which the CDSC applied; or
- If JIF Growth and Income Fund chooses to liquidate or involuntarily
redeem shares in your account.

To keep the CDSC as low as possible, Class A Shares or Class C Shares not
subject to any CDSC will be redeemed first, followed by shares held longest.

REINSTATEMENT PRIVILEGE - CLASS A SHARES

After you have redeemed Class A Shares, you have a one-time right to
reinvest the proceeds within 90 days of the redemption date at the current NAV
(without an initial sales charge). You will not be reimbursed for any CDSC paid
on your redemption of Class A Shares.

EXCESSIVE TRADING

EXCESSIVE TRADING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

The Board of Trustees of JIF Growth and Income Fund has adopted policies
and procedures with respect to short-term and excessive trading of Fund shares
("excessive trading"). JIF Growth and Income Fund is intended for long-term
investment purposes only, and the Fund will take reasonable steps to attempt to
detect and deter short-term and excessive trading. Transactions placed in
violation of JIF Growth and Income Fund's excessive trading policies may be
cancelled or revoked by the Fund by the next business day following receipt by
the Fund. The trading history of accounts determined

C-14

to be under common ownership or control within any of the Janus funds may be
considered in enforcing these policies and procedures. As described below,
however, JIF Growth and Income Fund may not be able to identify all instances of
excessive trading or completely eliminate the possibility of excessive trading.
In particular, it may be difficult to identify excessive trading in certain
omnibus accounts and other accounts traded through intermediaries. By their
nature, omnibus accounts, in which purchases and redemptions of JIF Growth and
Income Fund's shares by multiple investors are aggregated by the intermediary
and presented to the Fund on a net basis, may effectively conceal the identity
of individual investors and their transactions from the Fund and its agents.
This makes the elimination of excessive trading in the accounts impractical
without the assistance of the intermediary.

JIF Growth and Income Fund attempts to deter excessive trading through at
least the following methods:

- trade monitoring;

- fair valuation of securities as described under "Pricing of Fund Shares;"
and
- redemption fees (where applicable on certain classes of certain funds).

Generally, a purchase and redemption of shares from JIF Growth and Income
Fund within 90 calendar days (i.e., "round trip") may result in enforcement of
JIF Growth and Income Fund's excessive trading policies and procedures with
respect to future purchase orders, provided that the Fund reserves the right to
reject any purchase request as explained above.

JIF Growth and Income Fund monitors for patterns of shareholder frequent
trading and may suspend or permanently terminate the exchange privilege of any
investor who makes more than one round trip in JIF Growth and Income Fund over a
90-day period and may bar future purchases into the Fund and any of the other
Janus funds by such investor. JIF Growth and Income Fund's excessive trading
policies generally do not apply to a (i) money market fund, although money
market funds at all times reserve the right to reject any purchase request
(including exchange purchases) for any reason without prior notice; and (ii)
transactions in the Janus funds by a Janus "fund of funds," which is a fund that
primarily invests in other Janus mutual funds.

JIF Growth and Income Fund's Board of Trustees may approve from time to
time a redemption fee to be imposed by any Janus fund, subject to 60 days'
notice to shareholders of that fund.

Investors who place transactions through the same financial intermediary on
an omnibus basis may be deemed part of a group for the purpose of JIF Growth and
Income Fund's excessive trading policies and procedures and may be rejected in
whole or in part by the Fund. JIF Growth and Income Fund, however, cannot always
identify or reasonably detect excessive trading that may be facilitated by
financial intermediaries or made difficult to identify through the use of
omnibus accounts by those intermediaries that transmit purchase, exchange, and
redemption orders to JIF Growth and Income Fund, and thus the Fund may have
difficulty curtailing such activity. Transactions accepted by a financial
intermediary in violation of JIF Growth and Income Fund's

C-15

excessive trading policies may be cancelled or revoked by the Fund by the next
business day following receipt by the Fund.

In an attempt to detect and deter excessive trading in omnibus accounts,
JIF Growth and Income Fund or its agents may require intermediaries to impose
restrictions on the trading activity of accounts traded through those
intermediaries. Such restrictions may include, but are not limited to, requiring
that trades be placed by U.S. mail, prohibiting future purchases by investors
who have recently redeemed Fund shares, requiring intermediaries to report
information about customers who purchase and redeem large amounts, and similar
restrictions. JIF Growth and Income Fund's ability to impose such restrictions
with respect to accounts traded through particular intermediaries may vary
depending on the systems capabilities, applicable contractual and legal
restrictions, and cooperation of those intermediaries.

Certain transactions in Fund shares, such as periodic rebalancing (no more
frequently than quarterly) or those which are made pursuant to systematic
purchase, exchange, or redemption programs generally do not raise excessive
trading concerns and normally do not require application of JIF Growth and
Income Fund's methods to detect and deter excessive trading.

JIF Growth and Income Fund also reserves the right to reject any purchase
request (including exchange purchases) by any investor or group of investors for
any reason without prior notice, including, in particular, if the trading
activity in the account(s) is deemed to be disruptive to the Fund. For example,
JIF Growth and Income Fund may refuse a purchase order if the Fund's portfolio
manager believes he would be unable to invest the money effectively in
accordance with the Fund's investment policies or the Fund would otherwise be
adversely affected due to the size of the transaction, frequency of trading, or
other factors.

JIF Growth and Income Fund's policies and procedures regarding excessive
trading may be modified at any time by the Fund's Board of Trustees.

EXCESSIVE TRADING RISKS

Excessive trading may present risks to JIF Growth and Income Fund's long-
term shareholders. Excessive trading into and out of JIF Growth and Income Fund
may disrupt portfolio investment strategies, may create taxable gains to
remaining Fund shareholders, and may increase Fund expenses, all of which may
negatively impact investment returns for all remaining shareholders, including
long-term shareholders.

Funds that invest in foreign securities may be at a greater risk for
excessive trading. Investors may attempt to take advantage of anticipated price
movements in securities held by a fund based on events occurring after the close
of a foreign market that may not be reflected in JIF Growth and Income Fund's
NAV (referred to as "price arbitrage"). Such arbitrage opportunities may also
arise in funds which do not invest in foreign securities, for example, when
trading in a security held by a fund is halted and does not resume prior to the
time JIF Growth and Income Fund calculates its NAV (referred to as "stale
pricing"). Funds that hold thinly-traded securities, such as certain small-

C-16

capitalization securities, may be subject to attempted use of arbitrage
techniques. To the extent that JIF Growth and Income Fund's valuation of a
security differs from the security's market value, short-term arbitrage traders
may dilute the NAV of JIF Growth and Income Fund, which negatively impacts long-
term shareholders. Although JIF Growth and Income Fund has adopted fair
valuation policies and procedures intended to reduce the Fund's exposure to
price arbitrage, stale pricing, and other potential pricing inefficiencies,
under such circumstances there is potential for short-term arbitrage trades to
dilute the value of Fund shares.

Although JIF Growth and Income Fund takes steps to detect and deter
excessive trading pursuant to the policies and procedures described in this
Appendix C and approved by the Board of Trustees, there is no assurance that
these policies and procedures will be effective in limiting excessive trading in
all circumstances. For example, JIF Growth and Income Fund may be unable to
completely eliminate the possibility of excessive trading in certain omnibus
accounts and other accounts traded through intermediaries. Omnibus accounts may
effectively conceal the identity of individual investors and their transactions
from JIF Growth and Income Fund and its agents. This makes JIF Growth and Income
Fund's identification of excessive trading transactions in the Fund through an
omnibus account difficult and makes the elimination of excessive trading in the
account impractical without the assistance of the intermediary. Although JIF
Growth and Income Fund encourages intermediaries to take necessary actions to
detect and deter excessive trading, some intermediaries may be unable or
unwilling to do so, and accordingly, the Fund cannot eliminate completely the
possibility of excessive trading.

Shareholders that invest through an omnibus account should be aware that
they may be subject to the policies and procedures of their financial
intermediary with respect to excessive trading in JIF Growth and Income Fund.

AVAILABILITY OF PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS INFORMATION

The Mutual Fund Holdings Disclosure Policies and Procedures adopted by
Janus Capital and all mutual funds managed within the Janus fund complex are
designed to be in the best interests of the funds and to protect the
confidentiality of the funds' portfolio holdings. The following describes
policies and procedures with respect to disclosure of portfolio holdings of JIF
Growth and Income Fund.

- FULL HOLDINGS. JIF Growth and Income Fund is required to disclose its
complete holdings in the quarterly holdings report on Form N-Q within 60
days of the end of each fiscal quarter, and in the annual report and
semiannual report to fund shareholders. These reports (i) are available
on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov; (ii) may be reviewed and
copied at the SEC's Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C.
(information on the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-
800-SEC-0330); and (iii) are available without charge, upon request, by
calling a Janus representative at 1-877-335-2687 (toll free). Holdings
are generally posted under the Characteristics tab at janus.com/info
approximately two business days after the end of the

C-17

following period: portfolio holdings (excluding cash investments,
derivatives, short positions, and other investment positions), consisting
of at least the names of the holdings, are generally available on a
calendar quarter-end basis with a 30-day lag.

- TOP HOLDINGS. JIF Growth and Income Fund's top portfolio holdings, in
order of position size and as a percentage of the Fund's total portfolio,
are available monthly with a 15-day lag and on a calendar quarter-end
basis with a 15-day lag. Most funds disclose their top ten portfolio
holdings. However, certain funds disclose only their top five portfolio
holdings.

- OTHER INFORMATION. JIF Growth and Income Fund may occasionally provide
security breakdowns (e.g., industry, sector, regional, market
capitalization, and asset allocation), top performance
contributors/detractors, and specific portfolio level performance
attribution information and statistics monthly with a 30-day lag and on a
calendar quarter-end basis with a 15-day lag.

Full portfolio holdings will remain available on the Janus websites at
least until a Form N-CSR or Form N-Q is filed with the SEC for the period that
includes the date as of which the website information is current. JIF Growth and
Income Fund discloses its short positions, if applicable, only to the extent
required in regulatory reports. Janus Capital may exclude from publication all
or any portion of portfolio holdings or change the time periods of disclosure as
deemed necessary to protect the interests of JIF Growth and Income Fund,
including under extraordinary circumstances exceptions to the Mutual Fund
Holdings Disclosure Policies and Procedures made by Janus Capital's Chief
Investment Officer(s) or their delegates. Such exceptions may be made without
prior notice to shareholders. A summary of JIF Growth and Income Fund's
portfolio holdings disclosure policies and procedures, which includes a
discussion of any exceptions, is contained in the Fund's SAI.

DISTRIBUTION OF JIF GROWTH AND INCOME FUND

JIF Growth and Income Fund is distributed by Janus Distributors LLC, which
is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA"). To
obtain information about FINRA member firms and their associated persons, you
may contact FINRA at www.finra.org, or at 1-800-289-9999.

DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES

DISTRIBUTIONS

To avoid taxation of JIF Growth and Income Fund, the Internal Revenue Code
requires the Fund to distribute all or substantially all of its net investment
income and any net capital gains realized on its investments at least annually.
JIF Growth and Income Fund's income from certain dividends, interest, and any
net realized short-term capital gains are paid to shareholders as ordinary
income dividends. Certain dividend income may be reported to shareholders as
"qualified dividend income," which is generally subject to reduced rates of
taxation. Net realized long-term capital gains are

C-18

paid to shareholders as capital gains distributions, regardless of how long
Shares of the Fund have been held. Distributions are made at the class level, so
they may vary from class to class within a single fund.

DISTRIBUTION SCHEDULE

Dividends from net investment income for JIF Growth and Income Fund are
normally declared and distributed in March, June, September, and December. For
investors investing through intermediaries, the date you receive your
distribution may vary depending on how your intermediary processes trades.
Please consult your intermediary for details. Distributions of capital gains are
normally declared and distributed in December. If necessary, dividends and net
capital gains may be distributed at other times as well.

HOW DISTRIBUTIONS AFFECT JIF GROWTH AND INCOME FUND'S NAV

Distributions are paid to shareholders as of the record date of a
distribution of JIF Growth and Income Fund, regardless of how long the shares
have been held. Undistributed dividends and net capital gains are included in
JIF Growth and Income Fund's daily NAV. The share price of JIF Growth and Income
Fund drops by the amount of the distribution, net of any subsequent market
fluctuations. For example, assume that on December 31, JIF Growth and Income
Fund declared a dividend in the amount of $0.25 per share. If JIF Growth and
Income Fund's share price was $10.00 on December 30, JIF Growth and Income
Fund's share price on December 31 would be $9.75, barring market fluctuations.
You should be aware that distributions from a taxable mutual fund do not
increase the value of your investment and may create income tax obligations.

"BUYING A DIVIDEND"

If you purchase shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund just before a
distribution, you will pay the full price for the shares and receive a portion
of the purchase price back as a taxable distribution. This is referred to as
"buying a dividend." In the above example, if you bought shares on December 30,
you would have paid $10.00 per share. On December 31, JIF Growth and Income Fund
would pay you $0.25 per share as a dividend and your shares would now be worth
$9.75 per share. Unless your account is set up as a tax-deferred account,
dividends paid to you would be included in your gross income for tax purposes,
even though you may not have participated in the increase in NAV of JIF Growth
and Income Fund, whether or not you reinvested the dividends. Before buying
shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund close to year-end, you should consult with
your financial intermediary or tax adviser as to potential tax consequences of
any distributions that may be paid shortly after purchase.

For your convenience, JIF Growth and Income Fund's distributions of net
investment income and net capital gains are automatically reinvested in JIF
Growth and Income Fund. To receive distributions in cash, contact your financial
intermediary or a Janus representative at 1-800-525-0020. Whether reinvested or
paid in cash, the

C-19

distributions may be subject to taxes, unless your shares are held in a
qualified tax-deferred plan or account.

TAXES

As with any investment, you should consider the tax consequences of
investing in JIF Growth and Income Fund. Any time you sell or exchange shares of
a fund in a taxable account, it is considered a taxable event. For federal
income tax purposes, an exchange is treated the same as a sale. Depending on the
purchase price and the sale price, you may have a gain or loss on the
transaction; whether the gain or loss is long-term or short-term depends on how
long you owned the shares. Any tax liabilities generated by your transactions
are your responsibility.

The following discussion does not apply to qualified tax-deferred accounts
or other non-taxable entities, nor is it a complete analysis of the federal
income tax implications of investing in JIF Growth and Income Fund. You should
consult your tax adviser if you have any questions. Additionally, state or local
taxes may apply to your investment, depending upon the laws of your state of
residence.

TAXES ON DISTRIBUTIONS

Distributions by JIF Growth and Income Fund are subject to federal income
tax, regardless of whether the distribution is made in cash or reinvested in
additional shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund. When gains from the sale of a
security held by JIF Growth and Income Fund are paid to shareholders, the rate
at which the gain will be taxed to shareholders depends on the length of time
JIF Growth and Income Fund held the security. In certain states, a portion of
the distributions (depending on the sources of JIF Growth and Income Fund's
income) may be exempt from state and local taxes. JIF Growth and Income Fund's
net investment income and capital gains are distributed to (and may be taxable
to) those persons who are shareholders of JIF Growth and Income Fund at the
record date of such payments. Although JIF Growth and Income Fund's total net
income and net realized gain are the results of its operations, the per share
amount distributed or taxable to shareholders is affected by the number of Fund
shares outstanding at the record date. Generally, account tax information will
be made available to shareholders on or before January 31st of each year.
Information regarding distributions may also be reported to the Internal Revenue
Service.

Distributions made by JIF Growth and Income Fund with respect to Shares
purchased through a qualified retirement plan will generally be exempt from
current taxation if left to accumulate within the qualified plan.

Generally, withdrawals from qualified plans may be subject to ordinary
income tax and, if made before age 59 1/2, a 10% penalty tax may be imposed. The
tax status of your investment depends on the features of your qualified plan.
For further information, please contact your plan sponsor.

JIF Growth and Income Fund may be required to withhold U.S. federal income
tax on all distributions and redemptions payable to shareholders who fail to
provide their

C-20

correct taxpayer identification number, fail to make certain required
certifications, or who have been notified by the Internal Revenue Service that
they are subject to backup withholding. The current backup withholding rate is
applied.

TAXATION OF JIF GROWTH AND INCOME FUND

Dividends, interest, and some capital gains received by JIF Growth and
Income Fund on foreign securities may be subject to foreign tax withholding or
other foreign taxes. If JIF Growth and Income Fund is eligible, it may from year
to year make the election permitted under Section 853 of the Internal Revenue
Code to pass through such taxes to shareholders as a foreign tax credit. If such
an election is not made, any foreign taxes paid or accrued will represent an
expense to JIF Growth and Income Fund. JIF Growth and Income Fund's transactions
may involve short sales, futures, options, swap agreements, hedged investments,
and other similar transactions, and may be subject to special provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code that, among other things, can potentially affect the
character, amount, timing of distributions to shareholders, and utilization of
capital loss carryforwards. JIF Growth and Income Fund will monitor its
transactions and may make certain tax elections and use certain investment
strategies where applicable in order to mitigate the effect of these tax
provisions, if possible.

JIF Growth and Income Fund does not expect to pay any federal income or
excise taxes because it intends to meet certain requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code. It is important that JIF Growth and Income Fund meet these
requirements so that any earnings on your investment will not be subject to
federal income taxes twice. If JIF Growth and Income Fund invests in
partnerships, it may be subject to state tax liabilities.

C-21

APPENDIX D

LEGAL MATTERS

In the fall of 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the
Office of the New York State Attorney General ("NYAG"), the Colorado Attorney
General ("COAG"), and the Colorado Division of Securities ("CDS") announced that
they were investigating alleged frequent trading practices in the mutual fund
industry. On August 18, 2004, Janus Capital announced that it had reached final
settlements with the SEC, the NYAG, the COAG, and the CDS related to such
regulators' investigations into Janus Capital's frequent trading arrangements.

A number of civil lawsuits were brought against Janus Capital and certain
of its affiliates, the Janus funds, and related entities and individuals based
on allegations similar to those announced by the above regulators and were filed
in several state and federal jurisdictions. Such lawsuits alleged a variety of
theories for recovery including, but not limited to, the federal securities
laws, other federal statutes (including ERISA), and various common law
doctrines. The Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred these
actions to the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland (the "Court")
for coordinated proceedings. On September 29, 2004, five consolidated amended
complaints were filed with the Court, four of which still remain: (i) claims by
a putative class of investors in certain Janus funds asserting claims on behalf
of the investor class (Marini, et al. v. Janus Investment Fund, et al., U.S.
District Court, District of Maryland, Case No. 04-CV-00497); (ii) derivative
claims by investors in certain Janus funds ostensibly on behalf of such funds
(Steinberg et al. v. Janus Capital Management, LLC et al., U.S. District Court,
District of Maryland, Case No. 04-CV-00518); (iii) claims on behalf of
participants in the Janus 401(k) plan (Wangberger v. Janus Capital Group Inc.,
401(k) Advisory Committee, et al., U.S. District Court, District of Maryland,
Case No. JFM-05-2711); and (iv) claims by a putative class of shareholders of
Janus Capital Group Inc. ("JCGI") asserting claims on behalf of the shareholders
(Wiggins, et al. v. Janus Capital Group, Inc., et al., U.S. District Court,
District of Maryland, Case No. 04-CV-00818). Each of the five complaints
initially named JCGI and/or Janus Capital as a defendant. In addition, the
following were also named as defendants in one or more of the actions: Janus
Investment Fund ("JIF"), Janus Aspen Series ("JAS"), Janus Adviser Series
("JAD"), Janus Distributors LLC, INTECH Investment Management LLC ("INTECH")
(formerly named Enhanced Investment Technologies, LLC), Bay Isle Financial LLC
("Bay Isle"), Perkins Investment Management LLC ("Perkins") (formerly named
Perkins, Wolf, McDonnell and Company, LLC), the Advisory Committee of the Janus
401(k) plan, and the current or former directors of JCGI.

On August 25, 2005, the Court entered orders dismissing most of the claims
asserted against Janus Capital and its affiliates by fund investors in the
Marini and Steinberg cases (actions (i) and (ii) above) except certain claims
under Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and under Section
36(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). On
December 30, 2008, the Court

D-1

granted partial summary judgment in Janus Capital's favor with respect to
Plaintiffs' damage demand as it relates to what was categorized as "approved"
market timing based on the Court's finding that there was no evidence that
investors suffered damages that exceed the $50 million they are entitled to
receive under the regulatory settlement. The Court did not grant summary
judgment on the remaining causes of action and requested the parties to submit
additional briefing with respect to what was categorized as "unapproved" market
timing. Having completed the supplemental briefing, the parties are awaiting a
ruling from the Court. On August 15, 2006, the Wangberger complaint in the
401(k) plan class action (action (iii) above) was dismissed by the Court with
prejudice. The plaintiff appealed that dismissal decision to the United States
Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, which remanded the case back to the
Court for further proceedings. Finally, a Motion to Dismiss the Wiggins suit
(action (iv) above) was granted and the matter was dismissed in May 2007.
Plaintiffs appealed that dismissal to the United States Court of Appeals for the
Fourth Circuit where the appeal is pending.

In addition to the lawsuits described above, the Auditor of the State of
West Virginia ("Auditor"), in his capacity as securities commissioner, has
initiated administrative proceedings against many of the defendants in the
market timing cases (including JCGI and Janus Capital) and, as a part of its
relief, is seeking disgorgement and other monetary relief based on similar
market timing allegations (In the Matter of Janus Capital Group Inc. et al.,
Before the Securities Commissioner, State of West Virginia, Summary Order No.
05-1320). In September 2006, JCGI and Janus Capital filed their answer to the
Auditor's summary order instituting proceedings as well as a Motion to Discharge
Order to Show Cause. This action is pending.

During 2007, two lawsuits were filed against Janus Management Holdings
Corporation ("Janus Holdings"), an affiliate of JCGI, by former Janus portfolio
managers, alleging that Janus Holdings unilaterally implemented certain changes
to compensation in violation of prior agreements (Edward Keely v. Janus
Holdings, Denver District Court, Case No. 2007CV7366; Tom Malley v. Janus
Holdings, Denver District Court, Case No. 2007CV10719). These complaints allege
some or all of the following claims in addition to other allegations: (1) breach
of contract; (2) willful and wanton breach of contract; (3) breach of good faith
and fair dealing; and (4) estoppel. Janus Holdings filed Answers to these
complaints denying any liability for these claims and intends to vigorously
defend against the allegations.

Additional lawsuits may be filed against certain of the Janus funds, Janus
Capital, and related parties in the future. Janus Capital does not currently
believe that these pending actions will materially affect its ability to
continue providing services it has agreed to provide to the Janus funds.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT
CLASS A, CLASS C, CLASS I, CLASS R AND CLASS S SHARES OF
JIF GROWTH AND INCOME FUND

TRANSFER AGENCY AND OTHER SERVICES

Janus Services LLC ("Janus Services"), P.O. Box 173375, Denver, Colorado
80217-3375, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Janus Capital, is JIF Growth and Income
Fund's transfer agent. In addition, Janus Services provides certain other
administrative, recordkeeping, and shareholder relations services for JIF Growth
and Income Fund. Janus Services receives an administrative services fee at an
annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class R shares and
Class S shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund for providing or procuring
recordkeeping, subaccounting, and other administrative services to investors in
Class R shares and Class S shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund. Janus Services
expects to use a significant portion of this fee to compensate retirement plan
service providers, broker-dealers, bank trust departments, financial advisors,
and other financial intermediaries for providing these services. Services
provided by these financial intermediaries may include but are not limited to
recordkeeping, processing and aggregating purchase and redemption transactions,
providing periodic statements, forwarding prospectuses, shareholder reports, and
other materials to existing customers, and other administrative services.

Janus Services is not compensated for its services related to Class A
shares, Class C shares, and Class I shares, except for out-of-pocket expenses.
Included in out-of-pocket expenses are the fees charged by certain
intermediaries for administrative services including, but not limited to,
recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for

omnibus or networking accounts, or other shareholders services provided by
intermediaries on behalf of the shareholders of the Funds. Order processing
includes the submission of transactions through the National Securities Clearing
Corporation or similar systems or those processed on a manual basis by Janus
Services.

PURCHASES OF CLASS A SHARES

The price you pay for Class A shares is the public offering price, which is
the NAV next determined after JIF Growth and Income Fund or its agent receives
in good order your order plus an initial sales charge, if applicable, based on
the amount invested as set forth in the table. JIF Growth and Income Fund
receives the NAV. The sales charge is allocated between your financial
intermediary and Janus Distributors LLC ("Janus Distributors"), the Trust's
distributor, as shown in the table, except where Janus Distributors, in its
discretion, allocates up to the entire amount to your financial intermediary.
Sales charges, as expressed as a percentage of offering price, a percentage of
your net investment, and as a percentage of the sales charge reallowed to
financial intermediaries, are shown in the table. The dollar amount of your
initial sales charge is calculated as the difference between the public offering
price and the NAV of those shares. Since the offering price is calculated to two
decimal places using standard rounding criteria, the number of shares purchased
and the dollar amount of your sales charge as a percentage of the offering price
and of your net investment may be higher or lower than the amounts set forth in
the table depending on whether there was a downward or upward rounding. Although
you pay no initial sales charge on purchases of $1,000,000 or more, Janus
Distributors may pay, from its own resources, a commission to your financial
intermediary on such investments.

DISTRIBUTION AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICING PLANS

CLASS A SHARES, CLASS R SHARES, AND CLASS S SHARES

As described in the Prospectus/Information Statement, Class A shares, Class
R shares, and Class S shares will each adopt distribution and shareholder
servicing plans

(the "Class A Plan," "Class R Plan," and "Class S Plan," respectively) in
accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Plans are compensation type
plans and permit the payment at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average
daily net assets of Class A shares and Class S shares and at an annual rate of
up to 0.50% of the average daily net assets of Class R shares of a Fund for
activities that are service-related and/or primarily intended to result in sales
of Class A shares, Class R shares, or Class S shares of such Fund, including but
not limited to preparing, printing, and distributing prospectuses, SAIs,
shareholder reports, and educational materials to prospective and existing
investors; responding to inquiries by investors; receiving and answering
correspondence and similar activities. Payments under the Plans are not tied
exclusively to actual distribution and/or service expenses, and the payments may
exceed distribution and service expenses actually incurred. Payments are made to
Janus Distributors, JIF Growth and Income Fund's distributor, who may make
ongoing payments to financial intermediaries based on the value of Fund shares
held by such intermediaries' customers.

CLASS C SHARES

As described in the Prospectus/Information Statement, Class C shares will
adopt a distribution and shareholder servicing plan (the "Class C Plan") in
accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Class C Plan is a
compensation type plan and permits the payment at an annual rate of up to 0.75%
of the average daily net assets of Class C shares of JIF Growth and Income Fund
for activities which are primarily intended to result in sales of Class C shares
of JIF Growth and Income Fund. In addition, the Plan permits the payment of up
to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares of JIF Growth and
Income Fund for shareholder servicing activities such as providing facilities to
answer questions from existing investors about JIF Growth and Income Fund;
receiving and answering correspondence; assisting investors in changing dividend
and other account options and any other activities for which "service fees" may
be paid under Rule 2830 of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.
Conduct Rules. Payments under the Class C Plan are not tied exclusively to
actual distribution and service expenses, and the payments may exceed
distribution and service expenses actually incurred.

The Plans and any Rule 12b-1 related agreement to be entered into by JIF
Growth and Income Fund or Janus Distributors in connection with the Plans will
continue in effect for a period of more than one year only so long as
continuance is specifically approved at least annually by a vote of a majority
of the Trustees, and of a majority of the Trustees who are not interested
persons (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Trust and who have no direct or
indirect financial interest in the operation of the Plans or any related
agreements ("12b-1 Trustees"). All material amendments to any Plan must be
approved by a majority vote of the Trustees, including a majority of the 12b-1
Trustees, at a meeting called for that purpose. In addition, any Plan may be
terminated as to JIF Growth and Income Fund at any time, without penalty, by
vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of that Class of JIF Growth and
Income Fund or by vote of a majority of the 12b-1 Trustees.

Janus Distributors is entitled to retain all fees paid under the Class C
Plan for the first 12 months on any investment in Class C shares to recoup its
expenses with respect to the payment of commissions on sales of Class C shares.
Financial intermediaries will become eligible for compensation under the Class C
Plan beginning in the 13th month following the purchase of Class C shares,
although Janus Distributors may, pursuant to a written agreement between Janus
Distributors and a particular financial intermediary, pay such financial
intermediary 12b-1 fees prior to the 13th month following the purchase of Class
C shares.

PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Growth and Income Fund, the pro forma financial statements required by Rule 11-
01 of Regulation S-X have not been prepared and included in this Form N-14

Income Fund.

PART C - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 15. Indemnification

Article VI of Janus Investment Fund's Amended and Restated Agreement and
Declaration of Trust provides for indemnification of certain persons acting on
behalf of the Funds. In general, Trustees, officers and Advisory Board members
will be indemnified against liability and against all expenses of litigation
incurred by them in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding (or
settlement of the same) in which they become involved by virtue of their
connection with the Funds, unless their conduct is determined to constitute
willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of their
duties. A determination that a person covered by the indemnification provisions
is entitled to indemnification may be made by the court or other body before
which the proceeding is brought, or by either a vote of a majority of a quorum
of Trustees who are neither "interested persons" of the Trust nor parties to the
proceeding or by an independent legal counsel in a written opinion. The Funds
also may advance money for these expenses, provided that the Trustee or officer
undertakes to repay the Funds if his or her conduct is later determined to
preclude indemnification, and that either he or she provide security for the
undertaking, the Trust be insured against losses resulting from lawful advances
or a majority of a quorum of disinterested Trustees, or independent counsel in a
written opinion, determines that he or she ultimately will be found to be
entitled to indemnification. The Trust also maintains a liability insurance
policy covering its Trustees, officers and any Advisory Board members.
