There can be no assurance that the Fund will be successful in meeting its investment objective. Generally, the Fund will be subject to the following principal risks:</font></div>
<div style="line-height: 11.4pt; text-indent: 0pt; display: block; margin-left: 0pt; margin-right: 0pt;" align="justify"> </div>
<div style="line-height: 11.4pt; text-indent: 0pt; display: block; margin-left: 0pt; margin-right: 0pt;" align="justify"><font style="display: inline; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 10pt;" class="_mt"><font style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;" class="_mt">Investments in ETFs.</font> Since the Fund invests in ETFs, the Fund will be subject to substantially the same risks as those associated with the direct ownership of the securities comprising the index on which the ETF is based and the value of the Fund's investment will fluctuate in response to the performance of the underlying index. ETFs typically incur fees that are separate from those of the Fund. Accordingly, the Fund's investments in ETFs will result in the layering of expenses such that shareholders will indirectly bear a proportionate share of the ETFs' operating expenses, in addition to paying Fund expenses.</font></div>

Foreign securities involve investment risks different from those associated with domestic securities. Changes in foreign economies and political climates are more likely to affect the Fund than a mutual fund that invests exclusively in domestic securities. The value of foreign currency denominated securities or foreign currency contracts is affected by the value of the local currency relative to the U.S. dollar. There may be less government supervision of foreign markets, resulting in non-uniform accounting practices and less publicly available information about issuers of foreign currency denominated securities. The value of foreign investments may be affected by changes in exchange control regulations, application of foreign tax laws (including withholding tax), changes in governmental administration or economic or monetary policy (in this country or abroad), or changed circumstances in dealings between nations. In addition, foreign brokerage commissions, custody fees, and other costs of investing in foreign securities are generally higher than in the United States. Investments in foreign issues could be affected by other factors not present in the United States, including expropriation, armed conflict, confiscatory taxation, and potential difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations.</font></div>

A short sale is a transaction in which the ETF sells a security it does not own but has borrowed in anticipation that the market price of the security will decline. The ETF must replace the borrowed security by purchasing it at the market price at the time of replacement, which may be more or less than the price at which the ETF sold the security.</font></div>

Derivative instruments involve risks different from direct investments in the underlying assets, including: imperfect correlation between the value of the derivative instrument and the underlying assets; risks of default by the other party to the derivative instrument; risks that the transactions may result in losses of all or in excess of any gain in the portfolio positions; and risks that the transactions may not be liquid.</font></div>

The use of leverage may exaggerate changes in an ETF's share price and the return on its investments. Accordingly, the value of the Fund's investments in ETFs may be more volatile and all other risks, including the risk of loss of an investment, tend to be compounded or magnified. Any losses suffered by an ETF as a result of the use of leverage could adversely affect the Fund's net asset value and an investor could incur a loss in their investment in the Fund. Borrowing also leads to additional interest expense and other fees that increase the Fund's expenses.</font></div>

Stock prices change daily as a result of many factors, including developments affecting the condition of both individual companies and the market in general. The price of a stock may<font style="display: inline;" class="_mt"> even be affected by factors unrelated to the value or condition of its issuer, such as changes in interest rates, national and international economic and/or political conditions and general equity market conditions.

Small-cap and mid-cap companies can be subject to more abrupt or erratic share price changes than larger, more established companies. Securities of these types of companies have limited market liquidity, and their prices may be more volatile. You should expect that the value of the Fund's shares will be more volatile than a fund that invests exclusively in large-capitalization companies.</font></div>

The prices of fixed income securities respond to economic developments, particularly interest rate changes, as well as to perceptions about the creditworthiness of individual issuers. Generally, fixed income securities will decrease in value if interest rates rise and vice versa, and the volatility of lower-rated securities is even greater than that of higher-rated securities. Also, longer-term securities are generally more volatile, so the average maturity or duration of these securities affects risk. Credit risk is the possibility that an issuer will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal or go bankrupt. The lower the rating of a debt security, the greater its risks. In addition, these risks are often magnified for securities rated below investment grade, often referred to as "junk bonds," and adverse changes in economic conditions or market perception are likely to cause issuers of these securities to be unable to meet their obligations to repay principal and interest to investors.</font></div>

The returns from the types of securities purchased by the Fund (large-cap, mid-cap, growth, value, etc.) may at times be better or worse than the returns from other types of funds. Each type of investment tends to go through cycles of performing better or worse than the stock market in general. The performance of the Fund may thus be better or worse than the performance of funds that focus on other types of investments, or that have a broader investment style.</font></div>

In general, a non-diversified fund will invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer and will own fewer securities than diversified mutual funds. Accordingly, a non-diversified fund is generally subject to the risk that a large loss in an individual issuer will cause a greater loss for the fund than it would if the fund were required to hold a larger number of securities or smaller positions. A non-diversified fund may also have a more volatile net asset value per share than diversified mutual funds.</font></div>

A sector is a segment of the market that isolates very specific types of assets. Examples include consumer staples, energy, financials, health care, and real estate. The Fund's investment advisor, Navigator Money Management, Inc. (the "Advisor"), employs a proprietary ranking system to identify the sectors that it believes are showing the greatest relative strength and increases the Fund's exposure to those sectors. The Advisor may also take inverse positions in the lowest ranked sectors identified using the same proprietary ranking system.</font></div>

An ETF is an open-end investment company that holds a portfolio of investments designed to track a particular market segment or underlying index. In seeking to build a portfolio designed to outperform the S&P 500 Index, the Advisor may allocate Fund assets among equity and fixed income ETFs representing various markets, regions and countries, including the United States. The Fund may invest in ETFs that hold foreign securities and American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs"). The Fund may invest in ETFs </font><font style="display: inline; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 10pt;" class="_mt">designed to provide investment results that match the performance or inverse (opposite) performance of an underlying index. The Fund may also invest in ETFs designed to provide investment results that match a positive or negative multiple of the performance of an underlying index. In seeking to provide such results, an ETF may engage in short sales of securities included in the underlying index and may invest in derivatives instruments, such as equity index swaps, futures contracts, and options on securities, futures contracts, and stock indices. The Fund will not short individual securities.</font></div>

With respect to the Fund's inverse positions, the Advisor seeks to identify securities that are designed to perform inverse to indexes with valuations that the Advisor believes are unattractive based on these same characteristics. The Advisor will incorporate asset class selection as part of the Fund's overall portfolio. This strategic asset allocation is the process of dividing securities among different kinds of assets (such as stocks, bonds, real estate, precious metals and cash) to optimize the risk/reward trade-off based on achieving capital appreciation. The Advisor utilizes quantitative research to determine the Fund's weightings between stocks, bonds, and cash, allocation among sectors and industries, and exposure to domestic and foreign markets. The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading of its portfolio securities.</font></div>

The Fund's administrator has entered into a Fund Accounting and Administration Agreement with the Fund that runs through January 31, 2014. The agreement can only be terminated prior to that date at the discretion of the Fund's Board of Trustees. The Fund's administrator receives payments under the agreement at a maximum annual rate of 0.65%. In conjunction with the Fund Accounting and Administration Agreement, the Advisor has entered into an Operating Plan with the Fund's administrator, also through January 31, 2014, under which it has agreed to (i) to pay the administrator a fee based on the daily average net assets of the Fund when net assets are below $29 million; (ii) if these payments are less than a designated minimum, then the Advisor pays a fee that makes up the difference; and (iii) to assume expenses of the Fund outlined in the Operating Plan that are not covered by the fee paid under Fund Accounting and Administration Agreement. These measures are intended to limit the Fund's operating expenses to 1.65% of the average daily net assets, exclusive of brokerage fees and commissions, taxes, borrowing costs (such as interest or dividend expenses on securities sold short), acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses. The Fund's net expense ratio will be higher than 1.65% to the extent the Fund incurs expenses excluded from this arrangement. The Operating Plan can only be terminated prior to the conclusion of the current term with the approval of the Fund's Board of Trustees.
