Bridgeway Capital Management, Inc. (the &amp;#147;Adviser&amp;#148;) selects stocks for the Fund using a statistically driven approach. The Fund seeks to achieve the risk objective by investing in stocks that the Adviser believes have a lower probability of price decline over the long term, though the stock price may be more volatile in the short term. The Fund may invest in stocks for which there is relatively low market liquidity, as periodically determined by the Adviser based on the stock&amp;#146;s trading volume. The Fund may also use aggressive investment techniques such as:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;leveraging (borrowing up to 50% of its net assets from banks), &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;purchasing and selling futures and options on individual stocks and stock market indexes to increase or decrease the Fund&amp;#146;s exposure to stock market risk in order to attempt to maintain a more constant level of risk, &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;purchasing and selling financial or commodity futures and options to diversify risk, &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;entering into short-sale transactions (up to 20% of its total assets), &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;investing up to 20% of its total assets in a single company, &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;investing up to 15% of its total assets in foreign securities (as defined below), and &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;short-term trading (buying and selling the same security in less than a three-month timeframe). &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;For purposes of the Fund&amp;#146;s investments, &amp;#147;foreign securities&amp;#148; means those securities issued by companies: (i) that are domiciled in a country other than the U.S.; and (ii) that derive 50% or more of their total revenue from activities outside of the U.S. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Although the Fund seeks investments across a number of sectors, from time to time, based on economic conditions, the Fund may have significant positions in particular sectors. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Fund sometimes invests in a smaller number of companies than other mutual funds. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading. &lt;/font&gt;</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

Futures and options may not always be successful hedges, and their prices can be highly volatile. They may not always successfully manage risk. Using futures and options could lower a Fund&amp;#146;s total return, and the potential loss from the use of futures can exceed a Fund&amp;#146;s initial investment in such contracts. Leverage created from borrowing may impair the Fund&amp;#146;s liquidity, cause it to liquidate positions at an unfavorable time, increase volatility or otherwise not achieve its intended objective. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Investments in foreign securities can be more volatile than investments in U.S. securities. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Companies with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors. A certain sector may underperform other sectors or the market as a whole. As the Adviser allocates more of the Fund&amp;#146;s portfolio holdings to a particular sector, the Fund&amp;#146;s performance will be more susceptible to any economic, business or other developments which generally affect that sector. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Individual short-sale positions can theoretically expose the Fund to unlimited loss on such positions, although the Adviser seeks to mitigate this potential loss by limiting a single short-sale position to 2.5% of the Fund&amp;#146;s net assets at the time of opening the position.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;A higher portfolio turnover rate increases transaction costs and as a result may adversely impact the Fund&amp;#146;s performance and may increase share price volatility. Moreover, a higher portfolio turnover rate may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Fund may invest in a small number of companies, which will likely add to Fund volatility. &lt;/font&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in ultra-small company stocks based on company size at the time of purchase. For purposes of the Fund's investments, "ultra-small companies" are defined as those: (i) companies that have a market capitalization the size of the smallest 10% of companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange; or (ii) companies with a capitalization that falls within the range of capitalization of companies included in the Index as defined by CRSP. A majority of the stocks in the Fund are listed on NASDAQ. On June 30, 2012, the stocks in this group generally had a market capitalization of less than $244 million.

  <rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Nov2011_31Oct2012S000033567_Member">&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Fund invests in a broad and diverse group of small-cap stocks that the Adviser determines to be value stocks. Value stocks are those the Adviser determines are priced cheaply relative to some financial measures of worth, such as the ratio of price to book, price to earnings, price to sales, or price to cash flow. The Adviser uses a market capitalization approach to weight the securities in the Fund&amp;#146;s portfolio. This means that a security&amp;#146;s weight in the Fund&amp;#146;s portfolio at the time of purchase is roughly proportional to its market capitalization relative to the other securities in the portfolio. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in equity or equity-related securities (&amp;#147;common stocks&amp;#148;) of small-cap companies at the time of purchase. For purposes of the Fund&amp;#146;s investments, the Adviser considers small-cap stocks to be those of companies that have a market capitalization generally in the lowest 15% of total market capitalization or smaller than the 1000&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="1"&gt;&lt;sup style="vertical-align:baseline; position:relative; bottom:.8ex"&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt; largest U.S. company, whichever results in the higher market capitalization break. As of September 30, 2012, the stocks in this group had a market capitalization of less than $4.4 billion. This dollar amount will change with market conditions. The Fund primarily invests in small-cap stocks that are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE MKT and NASDAQ. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Adviser will not necessarily sell a stock if it &amp;#147;migrates&amp;#148; to a different category after purchase. As a result, due to such &amp;#147;migration&amp;#148; or other market movements, the Fund may have less than 80% of its assets in small-cap stocks at any point in time. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Use of the term &amp;#147;omni&amp;#148; in the name refers to the fact that the Fund intends to invest in a broad and diverse group of small-cap value stocks that approximately reflect the risk and return of all small-cap value stocks as a whole. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Although the Fund seeks investments across a number of sectors, from time to time, based on economic conditions and portfolio positioning to reflect a profile of a universe of stocks, the Fund may have significant positions in particular sectors. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Fund may invest up to 15% of its total assets in foreign securities. For purposes of the Fund&amp;#146;s investments, &amp;#147;foreign securities&amp;#148; means those securities issued by companies: (i) that are domiciled in a country other than the United States; and (ii) that derive 50% or more of their total revenue from activities outside of the United States. &lt;/font&gt;</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in stocks from among those in the large-cap growth category at the time of purchase. The Adviser selects stocks within the large-cap growth category for the Fund using a statistically driven approach. Growth stocks are those the Adviser believes have above average prospects for economic growth.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Although the Fund seeks investments across a number of sectors, from time to time, based on portfolio positioning to reflect its benchmark, the Fund may have significant positions in particular sectors.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;While the Fund is actively managed for long-term total return on capital, the Adviser seeks to minimize capital gains distributions as part of a tax management strategy.

In addition, value stocks as a group may be out of favor at times and underperform the overall equity market for long periods while the market concentrates on other types of stocks, such as &amp;#147;growth&amp;#148; stocks. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Investments in foreign securities can be more volatile than investments in U.S. securities. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Companies with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors.

Consequently, the Fund may expose shareholders to higher inflation risk (the risk that the Fund value will not keep up with inflation) than some other stock market segments.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Companies with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors. A certain sector may underperform other sectors or the market as a whole.

  <rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Nov2011_31Oct2012S000004420_Member">&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by approximating the total return of the Bridgeway Ultra-Large 35 Index (the &amp;#147;Index&amp;#148;), a proprietary Index composed by the Adviser, while minimizing the distribution of capital gains and minimizing costs. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in blue chip company stocks included within the Index. As of September 30, 2012, more than 99% of the Fund&amp;#146;s net assets were invested this way.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Fund invests in the stocks that comprise the Index and seeks to approximately match the Index composition and weighting. The long-term objective of this roughly equally weighted Index is to hold 35 &amp;#147;blue-chip&amp;#148; companies, excluding any tobacco companies and ensuring reasonable industry diversification.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Although the Fund seeks investments across a number of sectors, from time to time, based on portfolio positioning to reflect its benchmark, the Fund may have significant positions in particular sectors.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;This &amp;#147;roughly equally weighted&amp;#148; index contrasts with most other &amp;#147;market-cap weighted&amp;#148; indexes, which give more weight to the stocks that have appreciated the most in price. Therefore, the Index is a more &amp;#147;value-oriented&amp;#148; index structure. Similar to other index funds, the actual return of this Fund will likely underperform the Index over the long term by an amount similar to the Fund&amp;#146;s expenses and transaction costs.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Fund may purchase stock market index futures in order to hedge cash.&lt;/font&gt;</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>
  <rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Nov2011_31Oct2012S000004421_Member">&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;To achieve the objective of providing a high current return with less short-term risk than the stock market, the Fund uses multiple techniques: purchasing or selling stocks, options, futures, and fixed-income securities. Together, these strategies are designed to provide the Fund with more stable returns over a wide range of fixed-income and equity market environments. Up to 75% of the Fund&amp;#146;s total assets may be invested in common stocks and options on any size companies on which options are traded on a national securities exchange. At all times, at least 25% of the Fund&amp;#146;s total assets will be invested in equities. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its total assets in foreign securities. For purposes of the Fund&amp;#146;s investments, &amp;#147;foreign securities&amp;#148; means those securities issued by companies: (i) that are domiciled in a country other than the U.S.; and (ii) that derive 50% or more of their total revenue from activities outside of the U.S.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Adviser selects stocks for the Fund using a statistically driven approach that spans various investment styles including both &amp;#147;growth&amp;#148; and &amp;#147;value.&amp;#148; The Adviser may also select stocks and options according to a more passive strategy, including investing in stock market index futures and options. The Fund may also purchase or sell any financial (but not commodity) futures, puts, or calls within the scope of its investment objective and strategy. Specifically, the Fund may short stock index futures to hedge a similar basket of stocks and sell covered call or put options to reduce the risk of stock ownership. These instruments can be used to hedge cash, manage market risk, dampen volatility in line with its investment objective, arbitrage the difference between stocks and futures and create synthetic option positions.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;With respect to fixed income investments, the Adviser normally invests at least 25% of the Fund&amp;#146;s total assets in fixed-income securities: U.S. government obligations, mortgage and asset-backed securities, corporate bonds, collateralized mortgage obligations, and/or other fixed-income instruments. In addition, the Fund&amp;#146;s strategy with respect to credit rating may vary over time. The Adviser anticipates that fixed-income investments will largely be limited to U.S. government securities and high quality corporate debt.&lt;/font&gt;</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

  <rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Nov2011_31Oct2012S000004426_Member">&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of small-cap stocks that are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE MKT and NASDAQ. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in stocks from among those in the small-cap growth category at the time of purchase. The Adviser selects stocks within the small-cap growth category for the Fund using a statistically driven approach. Growth stocks are those the Adviser believes have above average prospects for economic growth.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Although the Fund seeks investments across a number of sectors, from time to time, based on portfolio positioning to reflect its benchmark, the Fund may have significant positions in particular sectors. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;While the Fund is actively managed for long-term return on capital, the Adviser seeks to minimize capital gains distributions as part of a tax management strategy. The successful application of this method is intended to result in a more tax-efficient fund than would otherwise be the case. &lt;/font&gt;</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>
  <rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Nov2011_31Oct2012S000004420_Member">&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Shareholders of this Fund are exposed to significant stock market related risk (volatility) and could lose money.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;While large companies tend to exhibit less price volatility than small companies, historically they have not recovered as fast from a market decline. Consequently, this Fund may expose shareholders to higher inflation risk (the risk that the Fund value will not keep up with inflation) than some other stock market investments.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Fund is also subject to the risk that blue chip company stocks will underperform other kinds of investments for a period of time. This risk is true of any market segment.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Companies with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors. A certain sector may underperform other sectors or the market as a whole.

In addition, growth stocks as a group may be out of favor at times and underperform the overall equity market for long periods while the market concentrates on other types of stocks, such as &amp;#147;value&amp;#148; stocks. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Companies with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors.

There can be no guarantee that the Fund may not someday distribute substantial capital gains, although the Adviser strongly intends to avoid them. &lt;/font&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

The protective qualities inherent in option writing are partial. In addition, the Adviser may not always write options on the full number of shares of stock it owns, thus exposing the Fund to the full market risk of these shares. Therefore, shareholders of this Fund are exposed to risk and could lose money.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Fund invests in companies of any size for which exchange-traded options are available. Small companies are more vulnerable to financial and other risks than large companies.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Fund&amp;#146;s fixed-income holdings are subject to three types of risk: interest rate risk, credit risk and prepayment risk.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Fund&amp;#146;s use of futures to manage risk or hedge market volatility may not always be successful hedges, their prices can be highly volatile, they may not always successfully manage risk and they could lower the Fund&amp;#146;s total return. The Fund&amp;#146;s investments in stock index futures are subject to the risk that the returns of the basket of stocks to which they are hedged are reduced by losses on the futures in a rising market.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;A covered call position will result in a loss on its expiration date if the underlying stock price has fallen since the purchase by an amount greater than the price for which the option was sold. Thus, the Fund&amp;#146;s option strategies may not fully protect it against declines in the value of its stocks. In addition, the option writing strategy limits the upside profit potential normally associated with stocks. In addition, the Fund&amp;#146;s investments in covered call and put options are subject to the risk that they may not provide sufficient protection to compensate for a decline in the underlying stock.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Investments in foreign securities can be more volatile than investments in U.S. securities.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Fund could experience a loss in the stock, option, and fixed-income portions of its holdings at the same time.&lt;/font&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

  <rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Nov2011_31Oct2012S000030751_Member">&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Fund invests in a broad and diverse group of small-cap stocks that the Adviser determines to be value stocks. Value stocks are those the Adviser determines are priced cheaply relative to some financial measures of worth, such as the ratio of price to book, price to earnings, price to sales, or price to cash flow. The Adviser uses a market capitalization approach to weight the securities in the Fund&amp;#146;s portfolio. This means that a security&amp;#146;s weight in the Fund&amp;#146;s portfolio at the time of purchase is roughly proportional to its market capitalization relative to the other securities in the portfolio. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in equity or equity-related securities (&amp;#147;common stocks&amp;#148;) of small-cap companies at the time of purchase. For purposes of the Fund&amp;#146;s investments, the Adviser considers small-cap stocks to be those of companies that have a market capitalization generally in the lowest 15% of total market capitalization or smaller than the 1000&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="1"&gt;&lt;sup style="vertical-align:baseline; position:relative; bottom:.8ex"&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt; largest U.S. company, whichever results in the higher market capitalization break. As of September 30, 2012, the stocks in this group had a market capitalization of less than $4.4 billion. This dollar amount will change with market conditions. The Fund primarily invests in small-cap stocks that are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE MKT and NASDAQ. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Adviser&amp;#146;s tax management strategies seek to minimize the distribution of capital gains, within the constraints of the investment objective and small company focus, by offsetting capital gains with capital losses, minimizing short-term capital gains, and reducing the receipt of dividends when possible. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Adviser will not necessarily sell a stock if it &amp;#147;migrates&amp;#148; to a different category after purchase. As a result, due to such &amp;#147;migration&amp;#148; or other market movements, the Fund may have less than 80% of its assets in small-cap stocks at any point in time. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Use of the term &amp;#147;omni&amp;#148; in the name refers to the fact that the Fund intends to invest in a broad and diverse group of small-cap value stocks that approximately reflect the risk and return of all small-cap value stocks as a whole. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Although the Fund seeks investments across a number of sectors, from time to time, based on economic conditions and portfolio positioning to reflect a profile of a universe of stocks, the Fund may have significant positions in particular sectors. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The Fund may invest up to 15% of its total assets in foreign securities. For purposes of the Fund&amp;#146;s investments, &amp;#147;foreign securities&amp;#148; means those securities issued by companies: (i) that are domiciled in a country other than the United States; and (ii) that derive 50% or more of their total revenue from activities outside of the United States. &lt;/font&gt;</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>
  <rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Nov2011_31Oct2012S000030751_Member">&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;The value of the Fund&amp;#146;s shares will fluctuate as a result of the movement of the overall stock-market or of the value of the individual securities held by the Fund, and shareholders could lose money. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Investing in small-cap stocks may involve greater volatility and risk than investing in large- or mid-cap stocks. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Value investing carries the risk that the market will not recognize a security&amp;#146;s intrinsic value for a long time or that a stock judged to be undervalued by various value measures may actually be appropriately priced. In addition, value stocks as a group may be out of favor at times and underperform the overall equity market for long periods while the market concentrates on other types of stocks, such as &amp;#147;growth&amp;#148; stocks. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Tax management strategies carry the risk of altering investment decisions and affecting portfolio holdings and may result in lower returns, as compared to funds that are not tax managed. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Investments in foreign securities can be more volatile than investments in U.S. securities. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:ARIAL" size="2"&gt;Companies with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors. A certain sector may underperform other sectors or the market as a whole. As the Adviser allocates more of the Fund&amp;#146;s portfolio holdings to a particular sector, the Fund&amp;#146;s performance will be more susceptible to any economic, business or other developments which generally affect that sector. &lt;/font&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

The total actual management fee for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 was -0.47% (see page 63 for more details). The actual total management fee for the prior fiscal year was negative due to the negative performance adjustment of the investment management fee under the Fund's performance-based management fee structure. As a result of the restatement, the management fee shown in the table above will be higher than that included in the expense ratio shown in the Financial Highlights table for the Fund.</link:footnote>
