The Advisor has contractually agreed to reimburse the Investor Class shares of the Fund for Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses in excess of 1.95%
until at least January 31, 2014 (excluding interest, dividend expense on short sales/interest expense, taxes, brokerage commissions, other investment related costs and extraordinary expenses). There were no reimbursements for the Investor Class
shares of the Fund during 2012. The Advisor may rescind the contractual limitation on expenses at any time after its expiration date.

XAMPLE
This example is intended to help you compare the
cost of investing in the Investor Class of the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invested $10,000 in the Investor Class of the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeemed all of your shares
at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment had a 5% return each year and that the operating expenses (as a percentage of net assets) of the Funds Investor Class remained the same. The example reflects
contractual fee waivers and reimbursements through January 31, 2014. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

URNOVER
The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or turns over its portfolio). Higher
portfolio turnover may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Funds
performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Funds portfolio turnover rate was 38% of the average value of its portfolio.
P
RINCIPAL
S
TRATEGIES
The Fund invests primarily in small and micro cap foreign and domestic companies.
Under normal market conditions, we will invest the Funds assets in equity securities (including common stock, preferred stock and securities convertible into common stock) of foreign and domestic
companies with market capitalizations of less than US$5 billion at the time of purchase. The Fund may invest a significant portion of its total assets (up to 35% under normal market conditions) in securities of companies with market capitalizations
greater than US$5 billion at the time of purchase when the companies meet our investment criteria. The Fund may also invest a significant portion of its total assets in micro cap companies with market capitalizations below US$1 billion (up to 90%
under normal market conditions).
The Fund will typically invest in securities issued by companies domiciled in at least three
countries, including the United States. The Fund may invest a significant portion of its total assets in companies domiciled in foreign countries (up to 80% under normal market conditions). Securities issued by foreign companies incorporated outside
the United States whose securities are publicly traded in the United States are not defined as foreign companies and are not subject to this limitation.
The Fund may invest a significant amount of its total assets (5% to 50% under normal market conditions) at the time of purchase in securities issued by companies domiciled in emerging markets. Emerging
market countries are those currently included in the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) EFM (Emerging + Frontier Markets) Index. These companies typically are located in the Asia-Pacific region, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Central
and South America, and Africa.
We use a process of quantitative screening followed by bottom
up fundamental analysis to identify individual companies that we believe are the
Worlds Best Growth
Companies
.
®
We travel extensively to visit companies and expect to meet with senior management.
We may also invest in growth companies that we believe have had a temporary setback and therefore have appealing valuation relative to
their long-term growth potential.
At times, we may invest in early stage companies with limited or no earnings history if we
believe they have outstanding long-term growth potential. We may also invest in initial public offerings (IPOs).
We do not use
allocation models to restrict the Funds investments to certain regions, countries or industries. We may significantly shift Fund assets between asset classes, sectors, and geographic regions based on where we believe the best growth
opportunities and valuations currently exist. The Fund may invest a large percentage of its assets in a few regions or sectors, including industrials, information technology, consumer discretionary, health care, financials, materials and energy.
P
RINCIPAL
R
ISKS
All investments carry some degree of risk that will affect the value of the Fund, its investment performance and the price of its shares. As a result, you may lose money if you invest in the Fund.
The Fund is subject to the following principal investment risks:
Stock Market Risk.
The Funds investments may decline in value due to movements in the overall stock market.
Stock Selection Risk.
The Fund invests primarily in equity securities (including common stock, preferred stock and securities
convertible into common stock, warrants and rights, and other securities with equity characteristics). The Funds investments may decline in value even when the overall stock market is not in a general decline.
Region Risk.
Social, political and economic conditions and changes in regulatory, tax, or economic policy in a country or region
could significantly affect the market in that country or region. In addition, global economies and financial markets are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the possibility that conditions in one country or region might adversely
impact the issuers of securities in a different country or region. From time to time, a small number of companies and industries may represent a large portion of the market in a particular country or region, and these companies and industries can be
sensitive to adverse social, political, economic, or regulatory developments.
Foreign Securities
Risk.
Foreign
securities are generally more volatile and less liquid than U.S. securities. Further, foreign securities may be subject to additional risks not associated with investment in U.S. securities due to differences in the economic and political
environment, the amount of available public information, the degree of market regulation, and financial reporting, accounting and auditing standards, and, in the case of foreign currency-denominated securities, fluctuations in currency exchange
rates.
Emerging and Frontier Markets Risk.
In addition to the risks of investing in foreign securities in general, the
risks of investing in the securities of companies domiciled in emerging and frontier market countries include increased political or social instability, economies based on only a few industries, unstable currencies, runaway inflation, highly
volatile securities markets, unpredictable shifts in policies relating to foreign investments, lack of protection for investors against parties that fail to complete transactions, and the potential for government seizure of assets or nationalization
of companies.
Micro Cap and Small Company Stock Risk.
Micro cap and small company stocks may be very sensitive to
changing economic conditions and market downturns.
2
Early Stage Companies Risk.
Early stage companies may never obtain necessary
financing, may rely on untested business plans, may not be successful in developing markets for their products or services, and may remain an insignificant part of their industry, and as such may never be profitable. Stocks of early stage companies
may be illiquid, privately traded, and more volatile and speculative than the securities of larger companies.
Initial
Public Offerings (IPOs) Risk.
IPOs involve a higher degree of risk because companies involved in IPOs generally have limited operating histories and their prospects for future profitability are uncertain. Prices of IPOs may also be unstable due
to the absence of a prior public market, the small number of shares available for trading and limited investor information.
Growth Stock Risk.
Growth stock prices may be more sensitive to changes in current or expected earnings than the prices of other
stocks, and they may fall or not appreciate in step with the broader securities markets.
Value Investing Risk.
Value
investing attempts to identify strong companies whose stocks are selling at a discount from their perceived true worth, and is subject to the risk that the stocks intrinsic values may never be fully recognized or realized by the market, their
prices may go down, or that stocks judged to be undervalued may actually be appropriately priced.
Sector Weightings
Risk.
Market conditions, interest rates, and economic, regulatory, or financial developments could significantly affect all the securities in a single sector. If the Fund invests in a few sectors, it may have increased exposure to the price
movements of those sectors.
Financials Sector Risk.
The financials sector is subject to extensive government
regulation, can be subject to relatively rapid change due to increasingly blurred distinctions between service segments, and can be significantly affected by the availability and cost of capital funds, changes in interest rates, the rate of
corporate and consumer debt defaults, and price competition.

ERFORMANCE
The following tables provide information on how the Investor Class of the Fund has performed over time. The past performance, before and
after taxes, of the Funds Investor Class is not necessarily an indication of how these shares will perform in the future. The bar chart below is intended to provide you with an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing
changes in the Funds performance from year to year, as represented by the Investor Class of the Fund. The table below is designed to help you evaluate your risk tolerance by showing the best and worst quarterly performance of the Funds
Investor Class for the years shown in the bar chart. The average annual total return table below allows you to compare the Funds performance over the time periods indicated to that of a broad-based market index and an additional index composed
of securities similar to those held by the Fund. Performance information is updated regularly and is available on the Funds website www.WasatchFunds.com.

After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates, and do not
reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on the investors tax situation and may differ from those shown. The after-tax returns are not relevant to investors who hold Fund shares through tax-deferred
arrangements such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts.
The Funds returns after taxes on distributions and sale of
Fund shares may be higher than returns before taxes and after taxes on distributions because they include the effect of a tax benefit an investor may receive from the capital losses that would have been incurred.

NFORMATION
The Fund intends to make distributions. You will generally have to pay federal income taxes, and any applicable state or local taxes, on
the distributions you receive from the Fund as ordinary income or capital gains unless you are investing through a tax exempt account such as a qualified retirement plan. Distributions on investments made through tax-deferred vehicles, such as
401(k) plans or IRAs, may be taxed later upon withdrawal of assets from those plans or accounts.

NTERMEDIARIES
If you purchase shares of the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Advisor or its affiliates may pay the intermediary for the sale of shares and related
services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your individual financial advisor to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your individual financial advisor or visit
your financial intermediarys website for more information.
