Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment):

	Inst Class	Class P	Admin Class	Class D	Class A	Class C	Class R
Management Fees	0.75%	0.85%	0.75%	1.00%	1.00%	1.00%	1.00%
Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees	N/A	N/A	0.25%	0.25%	0.25%	1.00%	0.50%
Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses ¹	0.52%	0.52%	0.52%	0.52%	0.52%	0.52%	0.52%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses ² ^,3	1.27%	1.37%	1.52%	1.77%	1.77%	2.52%	2.02%
Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement ⁴	(0.51%)	(0.51%)	(0.51%)	(0.51%)	(0.51%)	(0.51%)	(0.51%)
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement ⁵	0.76%	0.86%	1.01%	1.26%	1.26%	2.01%	1.51%

Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses include interest expense of the Underlying PIMCO Funds of 0.01%. Interest expense is based on the amounts incurred during an Underlying PIMCO Fund's most recent fiscal year as a result of entering into certain investments, such as reverse repurchase agreements. This interest expense is required to be treated as an expense of such Underlying PIMCO Fund for accounting purposes, but the amount of interest expense (if any) will vary with the Underlying PIMCO Fund's use of those investments (like reverse repurchase agreements) as an investment strategy.

²	Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses excluding interest expense of the Underlying PIMCO Funds is 1.26%, 1.36%, 1.51%, 1.76%, 1.76%, 2.51% and 2.01% for the Institutional Class, Class P, Administrative Class, Class D, Class A, Class C and Class R shares, respectively.

Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses do not match the Ratio of Expenses to Average Net Assets of the Fund, as set forth in the Financial Highlights table of the Fund's prospectus, because the Ratio of Expenses to Average Net Assets reflects the operating expenses of the Fund and does not include Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses.

⁴

PIMCO has contractually agreed, through July 31, 2014, to waive, first, the advisory fee and, second, the supervisory and administrative fee it receives from the Fund in an amount equal to the expenses attributable to the Management Fees of Underlying PIMCO Funds indirectly incurred by the Fund in connection with its investments in Underlying PIMCO Funds, to the extent the Fund's Management Fees are greater than or equal to the Management Fees of the Underlying PIMCO Funds. This waiver renews annually for a full year unless terminated by PIMCO upon at least 30 days' notice prior to the end of the contract term.

⁵

Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement excluding interest expense of the Underlying PIMCO Funds is 0.75%, 0.85%, 1.00%, 1.25%, 1.25%, 2.00% and 1.50% for Institutional Class, Class P, Administrative Class, Class D, Class A, Class C and Class R shares, respectively.

Example . The Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in Institutional Class, Class P, Administrative Class, Class D, Class A, Class C or Class R shares of the Fund with the costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the noted class of shares for the time periods indicated and then redeem all your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

If you redeem your shares at the end of each period:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Institutional Class	$78	$243	$422	$942
Class P	$88	$274	$477	$1,061
Administrative Class	$103	$322	$558	$1,236
Class D	$128	$400	$692	$1,523
Class A	$671	$928	$1,204	$1,989
Class C	$304	$630	$1,083	$2,338
Class R	$154	$477	$824	$1,802

If you do not redeem your shares:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Institutional Class	$78	$243	$422	$942
Class P	$88	$274	$477	$1,061
Administrative Class	$103	$322	$558	$1,236
Class D	$128	$400	$692	$1,523
Class A	$671	$928	$1,204	$1,989
Class C	$204	$630	$1,083	$2,338
Class R	$154	$477	$824	$1,802

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund pays transaction costs when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate 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 the Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example tables, affect the Fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 74% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies

The PIMCO RealRetirement® Income and Distribution Fund (the "Fund") is intended for investors seeking professional management of a comprehensive asset allocation strategy for retirement savings. The primary difference between the PIMCO RealRetirement® Funds is their asset allocation, which varies depending on the number of years left until the "self-elected" year of retirement indicated in the PIMCO RealRetirement® Fund's name. Unlike the other PIMCO RealRetirement® Funds, the Fund does not include a "self-elected" year of retirement in its name because the Fund is managed for shareholders who are retired or about to retire soon and are more focused on preservation of capital and withdrawing portions of their investments. The asset allocation of the Fund is based on the asset allocation at zero years left until retirement on the glide path and is intended to be used throughout an investor's retirement. An investment in the Fund is not guaranteed, and you may experience losses. There is no guarantee that the Fund will provide adequate income at and through your retirement.

In managing the Fund, Pacific Investment Management Company LLC ("PIMCO") uses a four-step approach consisting of 1) developing and re-evaluating a long-term asset allocation "glide path"; 2) performing tactical allocation adjustments around the glide path; 3) developing a series of relative value strategies designed to add value beyond the target allocation; and 4) utilizing hedging techniques to manage risks.

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances in a combination of affiliated and unaffiliated funds, which may or may not be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), Fixed Income Instruments of varying maturities, equity securities, forwards and derivatives. "Fixed Income Instruments" include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private sector entities. The Fund will invest in such funds, securities, instruments and other investments to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act, or any exemptive relief therefrom. The Fund may invest in Institutional Class or Class M shares of any funds of the Trust and PIMCO Equity Series, an affiliated open-end investment company, except funds of funds ("Underlying PIMCO Funds"), and may also invest in other affiliated funds, including funds of PIMCO ETF Trust, and unaffiliated funds (collectively, "Acquired Funds"). The Fund is non-diversified, which means that it may invest its assets in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund.

The Fund's long-term asset allocations are based on "glide path" developed by PIMCO and are based on quantitative and qualitative data relating to various risk metrics, long-term market trends, correlation of asset types and actuarial assumptions of life expectancy and retirement. The Fund's current asset allocation is based on the asset allocation at zero years left until retirement on the glide path and is intended to be used throughout an investor's retirement. The target date assumes a retirement age of 65, and time horizons based on current longevity of persons reaching retirement in average health. Choosing a PIMCO RealRetirement® Fund targeting an earlier date represents a more conservative choice; choosing a PIMCO RealRetirement® Fund targeting a later date represents a more aggressive choice. The glide path is designed not only to reduce risk as the target retirement date nears, but is also designed to provide investors diversification across a variety of asset classes, with an emphasis on asset classes that can protect against inflation over time. This is achieved by emphasizing allocations to inflation related assets, such as Treasury-Inflation Protected Securities ("TIPS"), commodities, and real estate, which complement exposures from traditional assets, such as U.S. and international equities, U.S. bonds and short-term instruments. The glide path changes over time, generally becoming more conservative as the Fund approaches the target date.

The chart below shows the glide path and illustrates how the allocation among the asset classes changes before and at the target date. The glide path allocation at the target date remains constant beyond that date. As described in greater detail below, PIMCO may adjust the Fund's actual asset allocation exposures from the long-term targets specified by the glide path based on PIMCO's real-time views of perceived risks and opportunities. PIMCO may also choose to modify the target asset allocations of the glide path itself from time to time.

PIMCO performs tactical allocation adjustments around the glide path, meaning PIMCO may vary the Fund's actual asset allocation exposures from the glide path's long-term targets based on PIMCO's real-time views of perceived risks and opportunities. PIMCO will generally reduce variation from the glide path's targets as the Fund approaches the target date.

The actual asset allocation at a given time may vary from the target strategic asset allocations based on PIMCO's tactical allocation adjustments and on market movements. These variances will be limited to a certain range relative to the target allocations under normal circumstances. The table below illustrates the permissible range in which the allocations may vary, as measured monthly.

	Total Equity Allocation				Total Commodity and Real Estate Allocation				Total Fixed Income Allocation
Years to Retirement	Target Allocation		Range		Target Allocation		Range		Target Allocation		Range
40	55	%	40-70	%	25	%	10-40	%	20	%	10-60	%
30	55	%	40-70	%	20	%	5-35	%	25	%	10-65	%
20	45	%	30-55	%	15	%	0-25	%	40	%	10-75	%
10	25	%	10-35	%	10	%	0-20	%	65	%	35-95	%
0	15	%	5-25	%	5	%	0-10	%	80	%	60-95	%

The tactical allocation adjustments described above are driven by PIMCO's secular and cyclical views, which are formulated by considering various qualitative and quantitative factors relating to the U.S. and non-U.S. economies, and securities and commodities markets. These factors include projected growth trends in the U.S. and non-U.S. economies, forecasts for interest rates and the relationship between short- and long-term interest rates (yield curve), current and projected trends in inflation, relative valuation levels in the equity, fixed income, commodity and real estate markets and various segments within those markets, the outlook and projected growth of various industrial sectors, information relating to business cycles, borrowing needs and the cost of capital, political trends, data relating to trade balances, labor information and relevant legislative or public policy changes. These "top down" macro economic factors, as well as more micro "bottom up" factors that are unique to narrowly defined market sectors, are used to identify attractive relative value strategies. These strategies seek to modestly enhance the Fund's returns in a manner within the allocation ranges relative to the glide path targets described above. When reallocating the Fund's investment exposures, PIMCO may do so by adjusting the mix of affiliated or unaffiliated funds, or by investing directly in securities, instruments and other investments, based on its ongoing analyses of the global economy, financial markets and the relative valuation and risks presented by the aforementioned vehicles and instruments. In selecting and reallocating the mix of affiliated or unaffiliated funds, PIMCO considers a wide range of factors, including a fund's objective, strategies, risks, performance, fees, and other metrics. In seeking to limit the amount of acquired fund fees and expenses that may be borne by Fund investors, PIMCO may choose to invest in particular affiliated or unaffiliated funds, so long as such investment decisions are consistent with the Fund's investment objective, glide path and tactical asset allocations. While PIMCO can adjust the Fund's investment exposures daily, including the vehicles or instruments used to gain those exposures, material shifts in investment exposures typically take place over longer periods of time.

As part of its investment process, PIMCO will also seek to reduce exposure to certain risks by implementing various hedging transactions. These hedging transactions seek to reduce a Fund's exposure to certain severe, unanticipated market events that could significantly detract from returns.

Once the tactical asset allocation adjustments, relative value strategies and risk hedging strategies have been determined, PIMCO then evaluates various combinations of affiliated or unaffiliated funds, securities, instruments and other investments to obtain the desired exposures and invests accordingly. Additional information for these Underlying PIMCO Funds can be found in the Statement of Additional Information and/or the Underlying PIMCO Funds' prospectuses and financial reports. Additional Underlying PIMCO Funds may be added or deleted in the future without shareholder notification.

Principal Risks

It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Fund. The Fund is generally subject to a different level and amount of risk which is relative to its target date and time horizon. The principal risks of investing in the Fund include risks from direct investments and/or indirect exposure through investment in Acquired Funds. The principal risks of investing in the Fund, which could adversely affect its net asset value, yield and total return are:

Allocation Risk: the risk that a Fund could lose money as a result of less than optimal or poor asset allocation decisions as to how its assets are allocated or reallocated

Acquired Fund Risk: the risk that a Fund's performance is closely related to the risks associated with the securities and other investments held by the Acquired Funds and that the ability of a Fund to achieve its investment objective will depend upon the ability of the Acquired Funds to achieve their investment objectives

Interest Rate Risk: the risk that fixed income securities will decline in value because of an increase in interest rates; a fund with a longer average portfolio duration will be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than a fund with a shorter average portfolio duration

Credit Risk: the risk that the Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income security, or the counterparty to a derivative contract, is unable or unwilling to meet its financial obligations

High Yield Risk: the risk that high yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality (commonly known as "junk bonds") are subject to greater levels of credit and liquidity risks. High yield securities are considered primarily speculative with respect to the issuer's continuing ability to make principal and interest payments

Market Risk: the risk that the value of securities owned by the Fund may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries

Issuer Risk: the risk that the value of a security may decline for a reason directly related to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer's goods or services

Liquidity Risk: the risk that a particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell and that the Fund may be unable to sell illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price or achieve its desired level of exposure to a certain sector

Derivatives Risk: the risk of investing in derivative instruments, including liquidity, interest rate, market, credit and management risks, mispricing or improper valuation. Changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index, and the Fund could lose more than the principal amount invested

Equity Risk: the risk that the value of equity securities, such as common stocks and preferred stocks, may decline due to general market conditions which are not specifically related to a particular company or to factors affecting a particular industry or industries. Equity securities generally have greater price volatility than fixed income securities

Commodity Risk: the risk that investing in commodity-linked derivative instruments may subject the Fund to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. The value of commodity-linked derivative instruments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, commodity index volatility, changes in interest rates, or factors affecting a particular industry or commodity, such as drought, floods, weather, livestock disease, embargoes, tariffs and international economic, political and regulatory developments

Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk: the risk of investing in mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, including interest rate risk, extension risk and prepayment risk

Foreign (Non-U.S.) Investment Risk: the risk that investing in foreign (non-U.S.) securities may result in the Fund experiencing more rapid and extreme changes in value than a fund that invests exclusively in securities of U.S. companies, due to smaller markets, differing reporting, accounting and auditing standards, and nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, currency blockage, or political changes or diplomatic developments. Foreign securities may also be less liquid and more difficult to value than securities of U.S. issuers

Real Estate Risk: the risk that a Fund's investments in Real Estate Investment Trusts ("REITs") or real estate-linked derivative instruments will subject the Fund to risks similar to those associated with direct ownership of real estate, including losses from casualty or condemnation, and changes in local and general economic conditions, supply and demand, interest rates, zoning laws, regulatory limitations on rents, property taxes and operating expenses. A Fund's investments in REITs or real estate-linked derivative instruments subject it to management and tax risks

Emerging Markets Risk: the risk of investing in emerging market securities, primarily increased foreign (non-U.S.) investment risk

Currency Risk: the risk that foreign currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar and affect the Fund's investments in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or in securities that trade in, and receive revenues in, or in derivatives that provide exposure to, foreign (non-U.S.) currencies

Issuer Non-Diversification Risk: the risk of focusing investments in a small number of issuers, including being more susceptible to risks associated with a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence than a more diversified portfolio might be. Funds that are "non-diversified" may invest a greater percentage of their assets in the securities of a single issuer (such as bonds issued by a particular state) than funds that are "diversified"

Leveraging Risk: the risk that certain transactions of the Fund, such as reverse repurchase agreements, loans of portfolio securities, and the use of when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment transactions, or derivative instruments, may give rise to leverage, causing the Fund to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged

Smaller Company Risk: the risk that the value of securities issued by a smaller company may go up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably as compared to more widely held securities, due to narrow markets and limited resources of smaller companies. A Fund's investments in smaller companies subject it to greater levels of credit, market and issuer risk

Management Risk: the risk that the investment techniques and risk analyses applied by PIMCO will not produce the desired results and that legislative, regulatory, or tax developments may affect the investment techniques available to PIMCO and the individual portfolio manager in connection with managing the Fund. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of the Fund will be achieved

Short Sale Risk: the risk of entering into short sales, including the potential loss of more money than the actual cost of the investment, and the risk that the third party to the short sale may fail to honor its contract terms, causing a loss to the Fund

Tax Risk: the risk that the tax treatment of swap agreements and other derivative instruments, such as commodity-linked derivative instruments, including commodity index-linked notes, swap agreements, commodity options, futures, and options on futures, may be affected by future regulatory or legislative changes that could affect whether income from such investments is "qualifying income" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, or otherwise affect the character, timing and/or amount of the Fund's taxable income or gains and distributions

Subsidiary Risk: the risk that, by investing in certain Underlying PIMCO Funds that invest in a subsidiary (each a "Subsidiary"), the Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with a Subsidiary's investments. The Subsidiaries are not registered under the 1940 Act and may not be subject to all the investor protections of the 1940 Act. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of a Subsidiary will be achieved

Please see "Description of Principal Risks" in the Fund's prospectus for a more detailed description of the risks of investing in the Fund. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

Performance Information

The performance information shows summary performance information for the Fund in a bar chart and an Average Annual Total Returns table. The information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in its performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund's average annual returns compare with the returns of a broad-based securities market index and an index of similar funds. Absent any applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations, performance would have been lower. The bar chart shows performance of the Fund's Institutional Class shares. For periods prior to the inception date of Class P shares (October 31, 2011), Administrative Class shares (June 30, 2008), Class C and Class R shares (July 31, 2008), performance information shown in the table for those shares are based on the performance of the Fund's Institutional Class shares, adjusted to reflect the actual expenses paid by Class P, Administrative, Class C and Class R shares. Performance in the Average Annual Total Returns table reflects the impact of sales charges. The Fund's past performance, before and after taxes, is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.

The Fund's broad-based securities market index is the Dow Jones Real Return Today Index ^SM . The Dow Jones Real Return Today Index ^SM is a composite of other indexes. The sub-indexes represent stocks, bonds, TIPs, commodities and real estate securities. The component asset classes are weighted within each index to reflect a targeted level of risk at the beginning and end of the investment horizon. Over time, the weights are adjusted based on predetermined formulas to systematically reduce the level of potential risk as the index's maturity date approaches. Lipper Mixed-Asset Target Today Funds Average is a total performance average of funds tracked by Lipper, Inc. that, by portfolio practice, maintain a conservative mix of equity, bonds, cash, and cash equivalents designed to provide income to investors who are in or close to retirement.

(1) After-tax returns are calculated using the highest historical individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor's tax situation and may differ from those shown, and the after-tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts. In some cases the return after taxes may exceed the return before taxes due to an assumed tax benefit from any losses on a sale of Fund shares at the end of the measurement period. After-tax returns are for Institutional Class shares only. After-tax returns for other classes
will vary.

Tax Information

The Fund's distributions are generally taxable to you as ordinary income, capital gains, or a combination of the two, unless you are investing through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an individual retirement account. Distributions paid by the Fund that are properly designated as "exempt interest dividends" normally will be exempt from federal income taxes, but may not be exempt from the federal alternative minimum tax.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Firms

If you purchase shares of the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial firm (such as a bank), the Fund and/or its related companies (including PIMCO) may pay the financial firm for the sale of those shares of the Fund and/or related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other financial firm and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial firm's Web site for more information.
