This material is authorized for use by existing shareholders. A current Davis New York Venture Fund prospectus must accompany or precede this piece if it is distributed to prospective shareholders. You should carefully consider the Fund's investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses before investing. Read the prospectus carefully before you invest or send money.

Davis New York Venture Fund's investment objective is long-term growth of capital. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its objective. Davis New York Venture Fund invests primarily in equity securities issued by large companies with market capitalizations of at least $10 billion. Some important risks of an investment in the Fund are: market risk: the market value of shares of common stock can change rapidly and unpredictably; company risk: the market value of a common stock varies with the success or failure of the company issuing the stock; financial services risk: investing a significant portion of assets in the financial services sector may cause a fund to be more volatile as securities within the financial services sector are more prone to regulatory action in the financial services industry, more sensitive to interest rate fluctuations, and are the target of increased competition; and foreign country risk: companies operating, incorporated, or principally traded in foreign countries may have more fluctuation as foreign economies may not be as strong or diversified, foreign political systems may not be as stable, and foreign financial reporting standards may not be as rigorous as they are in the United States. As of March 31, 2010, Davis New York Venture Fund had approximately 15.6% of assets invested in foreign companies. See the prospectus for a complete listing of the principal risks.
