Redemption Fee (Mairs & Power Small Cap Fund only)

The Board of Trustees has approved the imposition of a 1.00% redemption fee on shares of the Mairs & Power Small Cap Fund (the “Small Cap Fund”) held for 180 days or less.  The fee is designed to protect long-term shareholders from the negative effects of short-term trading activity (also known as “market timing”) by other shareholders.  Any redemption fees will be paid directly to the Small Cap Fund to offset the costs of short-term trading.  The redemption fee will become effective on September 3, 2013 and will apply to shareholders who redeem their shares on or before the 180th day from the date of purchase.  The redemption fee will not apply to Fund shares currently held by shareholders and purchased before September 3, 2013.
 
For purposes of applying the redemption fee, shares held the longest will be treated as being redeemed first.  The redemption fee does not apply to:
 
 
·  
shares acquired as a result of reinvesting distributions.
 
 
·  
shares redeemed in the case of death, disability or other hardship.
 
 
·  
shares purchased through certain omnibus accounts or retirement plans that do not have the operational capability to impose the fee.
 
 
·  
shares redeemed through the Systematic Withdrawal Plan.
 
 
·  
shares redeemed for accounts established as Coverdell Education Savings Accounts.
 
In addition, the redemption fee may be waived in other limited circumstances deemed necessary by the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer, in consultation with legal counsel, that do not indicate market-timing activity.  Any waivers authorized by the Chief Compliance Officer shall be reported to the Fund’s Board of Trustees at their next quarterly meeting.
