As of August 15, 2013, the investment advisory agreement between the Fund and Presidio Capital Investments, LLC (“Presidio”) was allowed to lapse and was not renewed by the Board of Trustees of the Starboard Investment Trust (the “Board”).  In order to provide for the uninterrupted management of the Fund, the Board approved an Interim Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Interim Agreement”) with CV Investment Advisors, LLC (“CV Advisors”), an investment advisory firm registered with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.  The Interim Agreement was approved by the Board at a Special Meeting held on August 22, 2013.  The Interim Agreement became effective upon approval by the Board.

The terms and conditions of the Interim Agreement are substantially identical to those of the previous investment advisory agreement between the Fund and Presidio, and the Interim Agreement provides for the same advisory fee as that previously paid to Presidio under the terms of the previous investment advisory agreement.  The foregoing notwithstanding, the Interim Agreement does differ from the previous investment advisory agreement in that it provides for the following terms required of such agreements by Rule 15a-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940: (i) the advisory fee otherwise payable under the Interim Agreement is held in an interest-bearing escrow account to be paid to CV Advisors pending approval by shareholders of the Fund of a permanent investment advisory agreement for the Fund; (ii) the term of the Interim Agreement is the earlier of 150 days from the date of the agreement or the date that a new investment advisory agreement is approved by the shareholders of the Fund; and (iii) the Interim Agreement may be terminated by the Board on 10 days’ written notice to CV Advisors.  If shareholders of the Fund do not approve a new investment advisory agreement within 150 days from the date of the Interim Agreement, CV Advisors will be paid the lesser of the costs incurred in performing services under the Interim Advisory Agreement or the total amount in the escrow account, including interest earned.

In connection with the Interim Agreement, the new portfolio manager for the Fund is Brenda A. Smith.  Ms. Smith is the founder of CV Investment Advisors, LLC and CV Brokerage, Inc., a broker-dealer.  She is also the owner of BA Smith & Associates, LLC, an accounting and consulting firm.  Ms. Smith received her Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting from Louisiana State University.  She is a Certified Public Accountant, Certified Financial Planner, and Certified Internal Auditor, while also holding the Series 7, 24, 27, 53, 63, and 79 licenses.

Investors should anticipate receiving a proxy statement soliciting their approval of the a new investment advisory agreement in the near future.  If shareholders of the Fund do not approve a permanent investment advisory agreement within the 150-day period specified under Rule 15a-4 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Board will take such action as it deems necessary and in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.
