Dear Shareholder:

We are writing to inform you of the upcoming special meeting of shareholders of Frontegra Funds, Inc. (the “Corporation”) to vote on important proposals affecting the Funds.  We are asking shareholders of each Fund to approve a new investment advisory agreement between the Corporation and Frontegra Asset Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”), the investment adviser to the Funds.  We are also asking shareholders of each Fund to approve a new subadvisory agreement between the Adviser and the applicable subadviser.  Additionally, we are asking shareholders of the Funds to elect three Directors to the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”).

As discussed in more detail in the enclosed Proxy Statement, the investment advisory agreement between the Corporation and the Adviser terminated on August 1, 2008 due to a change in control of the Adviser.  Effective August 1, 2008, William D. Forsyth III acquired 100% of the ownership interest in the Adviser.  The change in control constituted an “assignment” of the investment advisory agreement between the Corporation and the Adviser within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).  An investment advisory agreement automatically terminates upon its “assignment” under the applicable provisions of the 1940 Act.  Additionally, the change in control resulted in the termination of the subadvisory agreements between the Adviser and each subadviser.

To avoid disruption of the Funds’ investment management programs, the Board approved interim advisory and subadvisory agreements (the “Interim Agreements”) for each Fund on July 24, 2008.  The Interim Agreements became effective upon the change in control and provide that the Adviser and subadvisers will continue to provide advisory and subadvisory services to the Funds on substantially the same terms and, except with respect to one subadviser, with the identical fee structures as the prior advisory and subadvisory agreements (the “Prior Agreements”) until shareholders of each Fund approve a new advisory agreement and new subadvisory agreements, as applicable to their Fund (the “New Agreements”).  In the case of one subadviser, IronBridge Capital Management, LP, the subadvisory fees payable by the Adviser will increase under the new subadvisory agreement.  During the term of the Interim Agreements, all investment advisory fees earned by the Adviser, which include the subadvisory fees payable to each subadviser by the Adviser, will be held in escrow at the Funds’ custodian pending approval of the New Agreements.

The question and answer section that follows discusses the Proposals that require shareholder approval.  The Proxy Statement itself provides greater detail about the Proposals.  The Board recommends that you read the enclosed materials carefully and vote in favor of the Proposals.

You may choose one of the following options to authorize a proxy to vote your shares, which is commonly known as proxy voting, or to vote in person at the meeting:

Mail: Complete and return the enclosed proxy card(s).



Internet: Access the website shown on your proxy card(s) and follow the online instructions.

Telephone (automated service): Call the toll-free number shown on your proxy card(s) and follow the recorded instructions.

In person: Attend the special shareholder meeting on October 30, 2008.

Your vote is very important to us.  Whichever method you choose, please be sure to cast your vote as soon as possible.  Even if you plan to attend the special meeting of shareholders, you can vote in advance using one of the other methods.

Thank you for your response and for your continued investment in the Funds.

Sincerely,

[ffidef14a002.gif]

President of Frontegra Funds, Inc.



 





Questions and Answers

While we encourage you to read the full text of the enclosed Proxy Statement, for your convenience, we have provided a brief overview of the matters affecting the Funds that require shareholder vote.

Q.

Why am I receiving this proxy statement?

A.

The advisory agreement between the Corporation and the Adviser terminated on August 1, 2008 due to a change in control of the Adviser.  Effective August 1, 2008, William D. Forsyth III acquired 100% of the ownership interest in the Adviser.  This change in control constituted an “assignment” within the meaning of the 1940 Act, which regulates investment companies such as the Corporation, automatically terminating the Prior Agreements.  Accordingly, we are asking shareholders of each Fund to approve a new advisory agreement and a new subadvisory agreement for their Fund.

Q.

How does the assignment affect the Funds?

A.

The Funds and their respective investment objectives and policies have not changed.  You will still own the same number of shares in the same Funds and the value of your investment will not change.  With the exception of the new subadvisory agreement between the Adviser and IronBridge Capital Management, LP, the New Agreements contain similar terms and conditions and the identical fee structures as the Prior Agreements, and each is discussed in more detail in the enclosed Proxy Statement.

Q.

Will the investment advisory and subadvisory fee rates be the same upon approval of the New Agreements?

A.

The investment advisory rate applicable to each Fund under the new investment advisory agreement will be the same as the rate in effect prior to the assignment.  The subadvisory fee rates applicable to the Frontegra IronBridge Small Cap Fund and Frontegra IronBridge SMID Fund at the Funds’ current investment levels will increase upon the approval of the new subadvisory agreement between the Adviser and IronBridge Capital Management, LP.  Such increase is discussed in more detail in the enclosed Proxy Statement.  The subadvisory fee rates applicable to the other Frontegra Funds will be the same as the rates in effect prior to the assignment.  Additionally, all subadvisory fees will continue to be paid by the Adviser and not by any Fund.

Q.

Why am I being asked to elect Directors?

A.

The Board has recommended that shareholders elect the current Directors to the Board because they have served in these capacities for many years and therefore are familiar with the Adviser, each subadviser and with the management and operation of the Frontegra family of funds.  In addition, shareholder election of the entire Board will ensure that the Corporation continues to satisfy the 1940 Act in this regard.

Q.

How does the Board recommend that I vote?

A.

After careful consideration, the members of the Board, the majority of whom are not “interested persons” of the Corporation as defined in the 1940 Act, recommend that you vote FOR the New Agreements and FOR the nominee Directors.  The reasons for their recommendations are discussed in more detail in the enclosed Proxy Statement.

Q.

Will the Fund pay for the proxy solicitation and related legal costs?

A.

No.  The Adviser has agreed to bear these costs.

Q.

How can I authorize a proxy or vote my shares?

A.

You may choose from one of the following options, as described in more detail on the proxy card(s):

By mail, using the enclosed proxy card(s) and return envelope;

By telephone, using the toll-free number on your proxy card(s);

Through the Internet, using the website address on your proxy card(s); or

In person at the shareholder meeting.

BACKGROUND TO PROPOSALS

The Transaction

On August 1, 2008, William D. Forsyth III acquired 100% of the ownership interest in the Adviser and in Frontegra Strategies, LLC (the “Distributor”), the principal distributor for the Funds (the “Transaction”).  Prior to the consummation of the Transaction, Mr. Forsyth and Thomas J. Holmberg, Jr. each owned 50% of the Adviser and the Distributor and were co-Presidents of the Corporation, the Adviser and the Distributor.  Effective August 1, 2008, Mr. Holmberg no longer holds an ownership interest in the Adviser or the Distributor and resigned from his positions at the Adviser, the Distributor and the Corporation.

Termination of Prior Investment Advisory and Subadvisory Agreements

The Transaction resulted in a change in control of the Adviser and, therefore, constituted an “assignment” of the prior investment advisory agreement between the Corporation and the Adviser (the “Prior Advisory Agreement”) within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).  An investment advisory agreement automatically terminates upon its “assignment” under the applicable provisions of the 1940 Act.  Additionally, the Transaction resulted in the termination of the existing subadvisory agreements between the Adviser and each of the following subadvisers (each, a “Subadviser”): (i) Reams Asset Management Company, LLC for subadvisory services to Frontegra Columbus Core Plus Fund and Frontegra Columbus Core Fund, (ii) IronBridge Capital Management, LP for subadvisory services to Frontegra IronBridge Small Cap Fund and Frontegra IronBridge SMID Fund, (iii) New Star Institutional Managers Limited for subadvisory services to Frontegra New Star International Equity Fund and (iv) Netols Asset Management, Inc. for subadvisory services to Frontegra Netols Small Cap Value Fund (the “Prior Subadvisory Agreements,” and together with the Prior Advisory Agreement, the “Prior Agreements”).



2




To avoid disruption of the Funds’ investment management program, the Board of Directors of the Corporation, the majority of whom are not “interested persons” of the Corporation as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Directors”), approved an interim advisory agreement and interim subadvisory agreements (“Interim Agreements”) on July 24, 2008.  The Interim Agreements provide that the Adviser and Subadvisers will continue to provide advisory and subadvisory services to the Funds on substantially the same terms and with the identical fee structures as the Prior Agreements.  The Interim Agreements became effective on August 1, 2008 upon consummation of the Transaction and will remain in effect (unless sooner terminated) until shareholders of each Fund either approve or disapprove of a new advisory agreement (the “New Advisory Agreements”) and new subadvisory agreements applicable to their Fund (collectively, the “New Agreements”), or December 29, 2008, whichever is sooner.  If shareholders of the Funds approve the New Agreements at the Meeting, the New Agreements are expected to become effective on or about November 1, 2008.  If shareholders of the Funds do not approve the New Agreements, the Board of Directors will take such actions as it considers to be in the best interests of the shareholders of the Funds, which may include retaining other subadvisers, seeking exemptive relief from the SEC or liquidating the Funds.

The forms of the New Agreements are attached to this Proxy Statement as Exhibits.  With the exception of the new subadvisory agreement between the Adviser and IronBridge Capital Management, LP, the terms of the New Agreements are substantially similar to the terms of the Prior Agreements with respect to services provided by the Adviser and Subadvisers and have the identical fee structures.  The new subadvisory agreement between the Adviser and IronBridge Capital Management, LP increases the subadvisory fees payable to IronBridge Capital Management, LP.  The material terms of the New Agreements and Prior Agreements are compared below under the various Proposals.

The Board recommends that shareholders of each Fund vote FOR each of the nominees for election as a Director, FOR the approval of the new advisory agreement between the Corporation and the Adviser and FOR the new subadvisory agreements between the Adviser and the applicable Subadviser.

PROPOSAL 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Board recommends that shareholders of the Funds vote FOR the election of each of the nominees to the Board.

At the Meeting, shareholders of all of the Funds will be asked to elect three Directors to the Board.  The nominees are David L. Heald, James M. Snyder and William D. Forsyth III, all of whom are currently Directors of the Corporation and were nominated by the Independent Directors at a special meeting of the Board on July 24, 2008.  The persons named as proxies intend to vote for the election of these nominees as Directors of the Corporation unless such authority has been withheld in the proxy.  The Board currently consists of three Directors, Mr. Heald, Mr. Snyder and Mr. Forsyth.  

Each person has agreed to be named in this proxy statement and to serve if elected.  The Board has no reason to believe that any person will become unavailable for the election as a director. However, if that should occur before the Meeting, your proxy will be voted for the individuals recommended by the Board to fill the vacancies.

The following table presents certain information regarding the current Directors, including their principal occupations.  Information is listed separately for Mr. Forsyth, who is an interested Director, from Mr. Heald and Mr. Snyder, who are Independent Directors.  Mr. Forsyth is an interested Director due to his ownership interest in the Adviser.

Responsibilities of the Board 

 

The business and affairs of the Corporation are managed under the direction of the Board, including general oversight and review of investment policies and activities of each Fund.  The Board also elects the officers of the Corporation, who are responsible for supervising and administering each Fund’s day-to-day operations.  The Board held six meetings during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008.  Each incumbent director attended at least 75% of the Board meetings and the meetings of the Board committees on which the director served during such period.  


Shareholders wishing to communicate with the Board or individual Directors should send such correspondence to the offices of Frontegra Funds, Inc., 400 Skokie Boulevard, Suite 500, Northbrook, Illinois 60062.  Shareholder communications will be sent directly to the applicable Board member(s).  The Corporation currently does not have a policy with respect to Board members’ attendance at shareholder meetings.

 

Standing Committee


The Board has one standing committee – an Audit Committee.  Pursuant to its charter, the Audit Committee:  oversees the accounting and financial reporting policies and procedures of the Corporation and each of its series; oversees the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures; oversees the quality, objectivity and integrity of the Corporation’s financial statements and the independent audit thereof; monitors the independent auditor’s qualifications, independence and performance; and is responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the Corporation’s independent auditor.  During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, the Audit Committee met two times.  The two Independent Directors – Mr. Heald and Mr. Snyder – form the Audit Committee.

The Board does not have a nominating committee and does not have a charter or other written policy with regard to the nomination process.  The Board believes it is appropriate not to have a nominating committee because of the small size of the Board and the Board as a whole can adequately serve the function of considering potential director nominees from time to time as needed.  The Independent Directors are responsible for identifying, evaluating and recommending nominees to the Board as needed.  While the Independent Directors do not have a formal process for



6




identifying and evaluating director candidates, the Independent Directors will seek to ensure that the Board, as a whole, possesses the strategic and financial skills and experience necessary to fulfill its duties and to achieve its objectives, and is comprised of Directors who have the knowledge in areas that are of importance to the Funds.

The Board will consider each nominee on a case-by-case basis.  The Board will also consider properly qualified candidates submitted by shareholders in the same manner.  At a minimum, the candidate must display the highest personal and professional ethics, integrity and sound business judgment.  The Independent Directors consider relevant factors in considering prospective director nominees, including but not limited to a candidate’s independence, business experience, breadth of knowledge about issues and matters affecting the Funds, time availability for meetings and consultation regarding Fund matters.

Compensation

Directors and officers of the Corporation who are also officers, directors, employees or shareholders of the Adviser do not receive any remuneration from the Corporation for serving as Directors or officers.  Accordingly, Mr. Forsyth does not receive any remuneration from the Corporation for his services as director and officer.  Ms. Dilworth receives compensation from the Adviser for her services as Chief Compliance Officer of the Corporation.  The Funds pay compensation to an outside consulting firm for compliance-related services in support of Ms. Dilworth’s position as Chief Compliance Officer.  Neither the Corporation nor the Funds maintain any deferred compensation, pension or retirement plans, and no pension or retirement benefits are accrued as Corporation or Fund expenses. The following table provides information relating to compensation paid to Mr. Heald and Mr. Snyder for their services as Directors of the Corporation for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008.

PROPOSAL 2

APPROVAL OF THE NEW INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT BETWEEN
THE CORPORATION AND THE ADVISER

The Board recommends that shareholders of each Fund vote FOR the approval of the New Advisory Agreement between the Corporation and the Adviser.

At the Meeting, shareholders of each Fund will be asked to approve the New Advisory Agreement between the Corporation and the Adviser.  The New Advisory Agreement contains substantially similar terms with respect to the investment advisory services provided by the Adviser and the identical fee structure as the Prior Advisory Agreement, which was originally entered into on October 30, 1996.  The New Advisory Agreement would simply continue the relationship between the Corporation and the Adviser.  The Corporation’s Independent Directors last approved the Prior Advisory Agreement on August 20, 2007 as part of its regular annual review process.  The Prior Advisory Agreement was last approved by the Corporation’s shareholders on October 9, 1996.

Multiple Class Structure

Three of the Funds, the Frontegra Columbus Core Plus Fund, Frontegra IronBridge SMID Fund and Frontegra Netols Small Cap Value Fund, currently offer two different classes of shares, Institutional Class shares and Class Y shares.  The different classes of shares represent investments in the same portfolio of securities, but are subject to different expenses.  Share classes may have different expenses which may affect their performance and may be subject to different investment minimums and other features.

Compensation Paid to the Adviser

Under the terms of the Prior Advisory Agreement, the Adviser supervises the management of the Funds’ investments and business affairs, subject to the supervision of the Board.

At its expense, the Adviser provides office space and all necessary office facilities, equipment and personnel for servicing the investments of the Funds.  As compensation for its services, the Adviser is entitled to receive from each Fund an investment advisory fee equal to a percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets (“ADNA”) at the following annual rates:

Pursuant to expense cap agreements between the Adviser and the Corporation, the Adviser contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse each of the Funds to ensure that the total operating expenses for the shares of each Fund, as a percentage of each Fund’s ADNA are as follows:

The Adviser is entitled to recoup amounts previously waived or reimbursed to the extent actual fees and expenses for a fiscal period are less than each Fund’s expense limitation, provided, however, that the Adviser shall only be entitled to recoup such amounts for a period of three years from the date such amount was waived or reimbursed.  For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, the Adviser recouped previously waived advisory fees from the Frontegra IronBridge Small Cap Fund in the amount of $32,371.

Summary of the New Advisory Agreement and Prior Advisory Agreement

A copy of the New Advisory Agreement is attached as Exhibit A.  The following description is only a summary; however, all material terms of the New Advisory Agreement have been included in this summary.  You should refer to Exhibit A for the New Advisory Agreement, and the description set forth in this Proxy Statement of the New Advisory Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit A.  

The investment advisory services to be provided by the Adviser under the New Advisory Agreement are substantially the same and the fee structure is identical as under the Prior Advisory Agreement.  The changes between the New Advisory Agreement and the Prior Advisory Agreement generally relate to regulatory requirements that have been enacted since the Corporation and the Adviser first entered into the Prior Advisory Agreement on October 30, 1996, clarifying changes in accordance with the 1940 Act and other changes to reflect current industry best practices.  

Advisory Services.  Both the New Advisory Agreement and Prior Advisory Agreement provide that the Adviser will furnish certain investment advisory services to the Corporation, on behalf of each Fund, including continuous advice and recommendations as to the acquisition, holding or disposition of any and all securities or other assets of each Fund, subject to supervision of the Board and in accordance with each Fund’s investment objectives.  The New Advisory Agreement clarifies that the Adviser will also manage each Fund in accordance with the policies and restrictions as stated in the Funds’ Registration Statement on Form N-1A, compliance policies and procedures adopted by the Board and the Corporation’s organizational documents.  Both the New Advisory Agreement and Prior Advisory Agreement provide that the Adviser may delegate its duties to a subadviser.  The New Advisory Agreement clarifies that such delegation is at the Adviser’s own expense.


Management Fees.  Both the New Advisory Agreement and Prior Advisory Agreement contain the identical fee structure based on each Fund’s average daily net assets.  The investment advisory fees that the Adviser is entitled to receive from each Fund are presented under “Compensation Paid to the Adviser” above.

Duration and Termination.  Both the New Advisory Agreement and Prior Advisory Agreement provide that it will begin for a Fund upon execution of the applicable Exhibit relating to such Fund and will remain in effect for such Fund for two years from the effective date for such Fund.  Both the New Advisory Agreement and Prior Advisory Agreement provide that, after the initial two-year term for a Fund, it will remain in effect for successive periods of one year, subject to annual approval by the Board.  The New Advisory Agreement clarifies that the annual approval may also be by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of each Fund in accordance with the 1940 Act.  Both the New Advisory Agreement and Prior Advisory Agreement may be terminated at any time, on 60 days’ prior written notice, by the Corporation (by vote of the Board or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund) or by the Adviser, without the payment of a penalty.

Payment of Expenses.  Both the New Advisory Agreement and Prior Advisory Agreement provide that the Adviser will pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities under the Agreement, compensation of the Directors of the Corporation who are “interested persons” of the Corporation as defined in the 1940 Act and the Corporation’s rental of offices.  Under the New Advisory Agreement, the Adviser will pay the costs of any special Board meetings or shareholders’ meetings convened for the primary benefit of the Adviser.  The New Advisory Agreement removes the Adviser’s obligation to bear expenses related to the promotion of Shares in keeping with the Rule 12b-1 plan applicable to Class Y shares of the Funds.  Additionally, the New Advisory Agreement clarifies that the Corporation will pay for customary Fund expenses, such as the costs of the maintenance of the Corporation’s



11




registration statement, compliance program, bond and insurance coverage, any expenses incurred in connection with litigation, proceedings and claims and the legal obligations of the Corporation to indemnify its Directors, employees, shareholders and agents with respect thereto and compensation payable to its compliance officers as may be approved by the Board from time to time.

Limitation on Liability.  Both the New Advisory Agreement and Prior Advisory Agreement provide that, in the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith or reckless disregard of its duties, the Adviser shall not be liable for any act or omission or any loss suffered in the performance of its duties.  The New Advisory Agreement also provides that the Adviser, or any of its officers, directors, agents or employees, shall not be liable for any error of judgment, mistake of law or any loss arising out of the performance of its duties in the absence of negligence.  The Prior Advisory Agreement had a gross negligence standard.  Additionally, the New Advisory Agreement provides that nothing in the New Advisory Agreement shall constitute a waiver or limitation of any rights that the Corporation or any shareholder of a Fund may have under any federal securities or state laws, which may impose liabilities under certain circumstances on persons who have acted in good faith.

Amendments.  The Prior Advisory Agreement provides that the Agreement may be amended by the mutual consent of the parties, provided that the terms of the amendment are approved by the Board or by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of each Fund.  The New Advisory Agreement was revised to track the wording of the 1940 Act and to clarify that shareholder approval must only be obtained if required by the 1940 Act.

Other Provisions.  The New Advisory Agreement adds provisions to clarify obligations under regulatory requirements that have been enacted since the Corporation and the Adviser first entered into the Prior Advisory Agreement and to conform to current industry best practices.  The New Advisory Agreement states that the Adviser will act in accordance in all material respects with the Corporation’s organizational documents, regulatory filings and compliance policies and procedures and that the Adviser will cooperate with reviews of its compliance program by the Corporation’s compliance personnel.  Additionally, the New Advisory Agreement states that the Adviser has adopted a Code of Ethics, will not disclose non-public information as defined in Regulation S-P, will use its best efforts to assist the Funds in complying with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and implementing the Corporation’s controls and procedures and will provide information as may reasonably be requested in connection with the Board’s annual consideration of the Agreement.

Board Approval and Recommendation

When the Board reviewed the New Agreements at a special meeting on July 24, 2008, the Board was provided materials relevant to its consideration of the New Agreements, such as the Adviser’s and each Subadviser’s Form ADV and Code of Ethics, information regarding the Adviser’s and each Subadviser’s compliance program, personnel and financial condition and memoranda prepared by the Corporation’s legal counsel.  The Board also reviewed the advisory and subadvisory fees that would be payable by each Fund and the Adviser under the New Agreements, the proposed expense cap agreements between the Corporation and the Adviser on behalf of each Fund and comparative fee and expense information provided by an independent third party.  The Board was also provided with the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ responses to detailed requests submitted by the Corporation’s legal counsel.

In reaching its decision to approve the New Advisory Agreement, the Board, the majority of which are Independent Directors, met at a special meeting held on July 24, 2008 with the officers of the Adviser and the Corporation’s legal counsel.  In the course of its review, the Board considered their legal responsibilities with regard to all factors deemed to be relevant to the Funds, including but not limited to the following:  (1) the quality of services provided to the Funds since the Adviser first became investment adviser to the Corporation in 1996; (2) the performance of each Fund since the Adviser became the investment adviser to such Fund; (3) the fact that the Transaction is not expected to affect the manner in which each Fund is advised; (4) the fact that the investment management teams at each Subadviser will continue to manage the applicable Funds; (5) the fee structure under the New Advisory Agreement would be identical to the fee structure under the Prior Advisory Agreement; (6) the changes to terms in the New Advisory Agreement from the Prior Advisory Agreement are generally to conform to current regulatory requirements and industry best practices; and (7) other factors deemed relevant.  

The Board considered whether the New Advisory Agreement would be in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders and the overall fairness of the New Advisory Agreement.  Among other things, the Board reviewed



12




information concerning:  (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser; (2) each Fund’s investment performance; (3) the cost of the services provided and the profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates from their relationship with the Corporation on behalf of each Fund; (4) the extent to which economies of scale have been or will be realized as each Fund grows; and (5) the extent to which fee levels reflect the economies of scale, if any, for the benefit of each Fund’s shareholders.  In their deliberations, the Board did not identify any single factor as determinative.

In considering the New Advisory Agreement, the Board reviewed and analyzed various factors with respect to each Fund that it determined were relevant, including the factors below, and made the following conclusions.

Frontegra Columbus Core Plus Fund (the “Core Plus Fund”)

Performance Record of the Fund.  The Board reviewed the Core Plus Fund’s performance record for the period ended June 30, 2008.  The Board noted that the Core Plus Fund had outperformed its benchmark index for the past five-year, ten-year and since-inception periods and slightly underperformed its benchmark index for the one-year period ended June 30, 2008.  The Board concluded that the Adviser has developed the necessary expertise and resources in selecting and managing Reams Asset Management, LLC to provide investment advisory services as subadviser to the Core Plus Fund in accordance with its investment objective and strategy.  After considering all of the information, the Board concluded that, although past performance is not a guarantee of future results, the Core Plus Fund and its shareholders were likely to benefit from the Adviser’s continued management.

Advisory Fees.  The Board compared the Core Plus Fund’s contractual advisory fee and total expense ratio to the industry data provided by an independent service with respect to other mutual funds in the same peer group.  The Board noted that the Core Plus Fund’s advisory fee was below industry averages, and that the total expense ratio of the Institutional Class shares of the Core Plus Fund, after giving effect to the contractual expense cap agreement, was well below industry averages.  The Board also reviewed the total expense ratio for the Core Plus Fund’s Class Y shares, which was slightly above industry averages.  The Board noted that overall, the Core Plus Fund’s total expense ratio compared favorably to industry averages.  The Board concluded that the advisory fee to be paid by the Core Plus Fund to the Adviser was reasonable in light of the nature and quality of services to be provided and fees paid by comparable funds.

Costs and profitability.  The Board reviewed information concerning the Adviser’s financial condition, costs and profitability.  The Board also considered the fact that the Adviser had renewed the contractual expense cap agreement on behalf of the Core Plus Fund.  The Board noted that the Adviser was still waiving a portion of its fees for the Core Plus Fund.  The Board concluded that the Adviser’s current level of profitability was reasonable considering the quality of management and the fact that the Adviser was waiving its fees and/or reimbursing expenses for the Core Plus Fund.

Advisory Fees.  The Board compared the Core Fund’s contractual advisory fee and total expense ratio to the industry data provided by an independent service with respect to other mutual funds in the same peer group.  The Board noted that the Core Fund’s advisory fee was below industry averages, and that the Fund’s total expense ratio, after giving effect to the contractual expense cap agreement, was well below industry averages.  The Board concluded that the advisory fee to be paid by the Core Fund to the Adviser was reasonable in light of the nature and quality of services to be provided and fees paid by comparable funds.

Costs and profitability.  The Board reviewed information concerning the Adviser’s financial condition, costs and profitability.  The Board also considered the fact that the Adviser had renewed the contractual expense cap agreement on behalf of the Small Cap Fund, and also noted that the Adviser had recouped advisory fees from the Small Cap Fund for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008.  The Board concluded that the Adviser’s current level of profitability was reasonable considering the quality of management.

Frontegra IronBridge SMID Fund (the “SMID Fund”)

Performance Record of the Fund.  The Board reviewed the SMID Fund’s performance record for the period ended June 30, 2008.  The Board noted that the SMID Fund had outperformed its benchmark index for the one-year, three-year and since-inception periods ended June 30, 2008.  The Board concluded that the Adviser has developed the necessary expertise and resources in selecting and managing IronBridge Capital Management, LP to provide investment advisory services as subadviser to the SMID Fund in accordance with its investment objective and strategy.  After considering all of the information, the Board concluded that, although past performance is not a guarantee of future results, the SMID Fund and its shareholders were likely to benefit from the Adviser’s continued management.

Board Considerations Applicable to all Funds

Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services to be Provided.  The Board considered the Adviser’s background and services it would continue to provide to the Funds and their shareholders under the New Advisory Agreement.  The Board discussed the fact that the Adviser had chosen each Fund’s investment strategy and had selected the Subadvisers to make the day-to-day investment decisions for the Funds.  The Board noted that the Adviser has 12 years of experience in hiring and supervising subadvisers to portfolios in the Frontegra family of Funds.  The Board discussed the Adviser’s responsibilities for overseeing the Subadvisers and for monitoring each Fund’s compliance with applicable requirements under the securities laws.  The Board concluded that the range of services to be provided by the Adviser was appropriate and that the Adviser was qualified to provide such services.

The Board took into account that there will be no changes (including changes to the fee structure) that will adversely impact the Adviser’s ability to provide the same quality of services as were provided under the Prior Advisory Agreement; the New Advisory Agreement is similar in most respects to the Prior Advisory Agreement; there are no material compliance issues or material changes to compliance policies and procedures since the last renewal of the Prior Advisory Agreement; during the term of the interim advisory agreement, the advisory fees are being held in escrow pending approval of the New Advisory Agreement; and the Funds would not bear expenses related to the proxy statement.

Economies of scale.  The Board reviewed net asset growth on a per Fund and aggregate basis and considered whether there may be economies of scale in the management of each Fund if its assets were to increase significantly.  However, the Board concluded that the assets of the Funds were not likely to increase to such an extent that breakpoints would be appropriate, particularly in light of the expense cap agreements in place between the Adviser and each Fund.

Benefits to the Adviser.  The Board considered information presented regarding any benefits to the Adviser or its affiliates from serving as adviser to the Funds (in addition to the advisory fee).  The Board noted that the Adviser’s affiliate, Frontier Partners, Inc. (“Frontier”), provides consulting services to, and is compensated by, the Subadvisers.  However, the Board determined that the Adviser’s services to the Funds would not be compromised by this potential conflict of interest.

On the basis of its review of the foregoing information, the Board found that the terms of the New Advisory Agreement were fair and reasonable and in the best interest of each Fund’s shareholders.

The subadvisory services to be provided by Reams under the New Reams Subadvisory Agreement are substantially the same and the fee structure is identical as under the Prior Reams Subadvisory Agreement.  The changes between the New Reams Subadvisory Agreement and the Prior Reams Subadvisory Agreement generally relate to clarifying changes in accordance with the 1940 Act and other regulatory requirements and other updating changes.

Board Approval and Recommendation

When the Board reviewed the New Reams Subadvisory Agreement at a special meeting on July 24, 2008, the Board was provided materials relevant to its consideration of the New Reams Subadvisory Agreement, such as Reams’ Form ADV and Code of Ethics, information regarding Reams’ compliance program, personnel and financial condition and memoranda prepared by the Corporation’s legal counsel.  The Board also reviewed the subadvisory fees that would be payable by each Fund and the Adviser under the New Reams Subadvisory Agreement and the proposed expense cap agreement between the Corporation and the Adviser on behalf of each Fund.  The Board was also provided with the Reams’ responses to detailed requests submitted by the Corporation’s legal counsel.

In approving the New Reams Subadvisory Agreement, the Board considered the following factors and made the following conclusions with respect to each Fund:

Core Plus Fund

Nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided.  The Board’s analysis of the nature, extent and quality of Reams’ services to the Core Plus Fund took into account knowledge gained from Reams’ presentations to the Board at meetings throughout the year.  The Board reviewed and considered Reams’ investment strategy, experience as a fixed income manager, key personnel involved in providing investment management services to the Core Plus Fund and financial condition.  The Board also considered services provided by Reams under the New Reams Subadvisory Agreement, including the selection of fixed income dealers, monitoring adherence to the Core Plus Fund’s investment restrictions and assisting with the Core Plus Fund’s compliance with applicable securities laws and regulations.  The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by Reams to the Core Plus Fund was appropriate and that the Core Plus Fund was likely to continue to benefit from services provided by Reams under the New Reams Subadvisory Agreement.

Investment performance of the Fund.  The Board reviewed the performance record of the Core Plus Fund.  It noted that the Core Plus Fund had outperformed its benchmark index for the five-year and ten-year periods and slightly underperformed its benchmark index for the one-year period ended June 30, 2008.  The Board also considered Reams’ quarterly portfolio commentary and review of the Core Plus Fund’s performance.  The Board concluded that Reams would continue to provide a high level of subadvisory services to the Core Plus Fund.

Subadvisory fees.  The Board reviewed and considered the subadvisory fees payable by the Adviser to Reams under the New Subadvisory Agreement.  The Board determined that the subadvisory fee payable with respect to the Core Plus Fund was appropriate in light of the Core Plus Fund’s investment style and in comparison to fees paid by separate account clients of Reams managed in the same style as the Core Plus Fund.  In evaluating the subadvisory fee, the Board noted that the fee is paid by the Adviser and that therefore the overall advisory fee paid by the Core Plus Fund is not directly affected by the subadvisory fee.



19




Costs and profitability.  The Board did not consider the cost of services provided by Reams or the profitability to Reams from its relationship with the Core Plus Fund because it did not view these factors as relevant given that the subadvisory fee is paid by the Adviser.

Economies of scale.  Because the subadvisory fee is not paid by the Core Plus Fund, the Board did not consider whether the fee should reflect any potential economies of scale that might be realized as the Core Plus Fund assets increase.

Benefits to Reams.  The Board considered information presented regarding any benefits to Reams from serving as subadviser to the Core Plus Fund (in addition to the subadvisory fee).  The Board noted that Reams does not participate in soft dollar arrangements with respect to fixed income transactions.  The Board also noted that Reams receives consulting services from Frontier, an affiliate of the Adviser.

Core Fund

Nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided.  The Board’s analysis of the nature, extent and quality of Reams’ services to the Core Fund took into account knowledge gained from Reams’ presentations to the Board at meetings throughout the year.  The Board reviewed and considered Reams’ investment strategy, experience as a fixed income manager, key personnel involved in providing investment management services to the Core Fund and financial condition.  The Board also considered services provided by Reams under the New Reams Subadvisory Agreement, including the selection of fixed income dealers, monitoring adherence to the Core Fund’s investment restrictions and assisting with the Core Fund’s compliance with applicable securities laws and regulations.  The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by Reams to the Core Fund was appropriate and that the Core Fund was likely to continue to benefit from services provided by Reams under the New Reams Subadvisory Agreement.

Investment performance of the Fund.  The Board reviewed the performance record of the Core Fund.  The Board noted that the Core Fund had outperformed its benchmark index for the one-year and five-year periods and slightly underperformed the benchmark index for the since-inception period ended June 30, 2008.  The Board also considered Reams’ quarterly portfolio commentary and review of the Core Fund’s performance.  The Board concluded that Reams would continue to provide a high level of subadvisory services to the Core Fund.

Subadvisory fees.  The Board reviewed and considered the subadvisory fees payable by the Adviser to Reams under the New Subadvisory Agreement.  The Board determined that the subadvisory fee payable with respect to the Core Fund was appropriate in light of the Core Fund’s investment style and in comparison to fees paid by separate account clients of Reams managed in the same style as the Core Fund.  In evaluating the subadvisory fee, the Board noted that the fee is paid by the Adviser and that therefore the overall advisory fee paid by the Core Fund is not directly affected by the subadvisory fee.

Costs and profitability.  The Board did not consider the cost of services provided by Reams or the profitability to Reams from its relationship with the Core Fund because it did not view these factors as relevant given that the subadvisory fee is paid by the Adviser.

Economies of scale.  Because the subadvisory fee is not paid by the Core Fund, the Board did not consider whether the fee should reflect any potential economies of scale that might be realized as the Core Fund assets increase.

Benefits to Reams.  The Board considered information presented regarding any benefits to Reams from serving as subadviser to the Core Fund (in addition to the subadvisory fee).  The Board noted that Reams does not participate in soft dollar arrangements with respect to fixed income transactions.  The Board also noted that Reams receives consulting services from Frontier, an affiliate of the Adviser.

On the basis of its review of the foregoing information, the Board found that the terms of the New Reams Subadvisory Agreement were fair and reasonable and in the best interest of the shareholders of the Core Plus and Core Funds.

The Board recommends that shareholders of the Core Plus and Core Funds vote FOR the approval of the New Reams Subadvisory Agreement.

The Board recommends that the shareholders of the Frontegra IronBridge Small Cap Fund (the “Small Cap Fund”) and Frontegra IronBridge SMID Fund (the “SMID Fund”) approve the proposed new subadvisory agreement between the Adviser and IronBridge Capital Management, LP (“IronBridge”) (the “New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement”).

At the Meeting, shareholders of the Small Cap and SMID Funds will be asked to approve the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement. The New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement contains substantially similar terms with respect to the subadvisory services to be provided by IronBridge as the prior subadvisory agreement between the Adviser and IronBridge dated August 30, 2002, as amended (the “Prior IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement”).  The New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement increases the subadvisory fees payable to IronBridge when Fund net assets are over certain levels, entitles IronBridge to receive a percentage of any advisory fees recouped by the Adviser and eliminates a non-competition provision, as further described below.  Under the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement, IronBridge provides continuous advice and recommendations concerning the investments of the Small Cap and SMID Funds and is responsible for selecting the broker-dealers who execute the portfolio transactions.  The Board last approved the Prior IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement on August 20, 2007 as part of its regular annual review process.

Pursuant to an expense cap agreement between the Adviser and the Corporation, on behalf of the Small Cap and SMID Funds, the Adviser contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse each of the Funds to ensure that the total operating expenses do not exceed 1.10% of the Small Cap Fund’s average daily net assets and 0.95% and 1.40% of the SMID Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Institutional Class and Class Y shares, respectively.  The expense cap agreement will continue in effect until October 31, 2009 with successive renewal terms of one year unless terminated by the Adviser or the Corporation prior to any such renewal.

Additionally, under the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement, IronBridge will be entitled to receive a percentage of any waived advisory fees and reimbursed expenses recouped by the Adviser that relate to periods in which IronBridge was paid a percentage of the net advisory fee.  For each Fund, IronBridge will receive the same percentage of any recouped advisory fees as the percentage it received of the net advisory fee at the time of the fee waiver.  Specifically, for each Fund, IronBridge will be entitled to receive either (i) 50% (the subadvisory fee under the Prior IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement) of any advisory fees or expenses recouped by the Adviser that relate to periods during which the Prior IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement was in effect or (ii) 60% (the subadvisory fee under the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement) of any advisory fees or expenses recouped by the Adviser that relate to periods during which the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement is in effect.

The table below compares the aggregate amount of the subadvisory fee that the Adviser paid to IronBridge under the Prior IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008 to the amount the Adviser would have paid to IronBridge if the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement had been effect during the same period.  The table also shows the increase between the two amounts expressed as a percentage of the prior subadvisory fee.  The table reflects amounts that IronBridge would have been entitled to receive from previously waived fees recouped by the Adviser for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008.  The Adviser is entitled to recoup amounts waived or reimbursed for a period of three years from the date such amount was waived or reimbursed.

Board Approval and Recommendation

When the Board reviewed the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement at special meetings on July 24, 2008 and September 7, 2008, the Board was provided materials relevant to its consideration of the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement, such as IronBridge’ Form ADV and Code of Ethics, information regarding IronBridge’s compliance program, personnel and financial condition and memoranda prepared by the Corporation’s legal counsel.  The Board also reviewed the subadvisory fees that would be payable by each Fund and the Adviser under the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement and the proposed expense cap agreement between the Corporation and the Adviser on behalf of each Fund.  The Board was also provided with IronBridge’s responses to detailed requests submitted by the Corporation’s legal counsel.  

In approving the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement between the Adviser and IronBridge, the Board considered the following factors and made the following conclusions with respect to each Fund.

Small Cap Fund

Nature, extent and quality of the services provided.  The Board’s analysis of the nature, extent and quality of IronBridge’s services to the Small Cap Fund took into account knowledge gained from IronBridge’s presentations to the Board at meetings throughout the year.  The Board reviewed and considered IronBridge’s proprietary investment style, key personnel involved in providing investment management services to the Small Cap Fund and financial condition.  The Board also considered services provided by IronBridge under the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement, including the selection of broker-dealers for execution of portfolio transactions, monitoring adherence to the Small Cap Fund’s investment restrictions and assisting with the Small Cap Fund’s compliance with applicable securities laws and regulations.  The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by IronBridge to the Small Cap Fund was appropriate and that the Small Cap Fund was likely to continue to benefit from services provided by IronBridge under the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement.

Investment performance of the Fund.  The Board reviewed the performance record of the Small Cap Fund.  It noted that the Small Cap Fund had outperformed its benchmark index for the one-year, five-year and since-inception periods ended June 30, 2008.  The Board also considered IronBridge’s quarterly portfolio commentary and review of the Small Cap Fund’s performance.  The Board also compared the Small Cap Fund’s performance for the period ended June 30, 2008 to the performance for the corresponding composite of IronBridge’s separate account clients.  The Board concluded that IronBridge would continue to provide a high level of subadvisory services to the Small Cap Fund.

Subadvisory fees.  The Board reviewed and considered the subadvisory fees payable by the Adviser to IronBridge under the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement.  The Board considered the increase in subadvisory fees payable to IronBridge and the additional compensation that IronBridge is entitled to receive from amounts recouped by the Adviser from previously waived fees and reimbursed expenses under the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement, as discussed above.  The Board determined that the subadvisory fee payable with respect to the Small Cap Fund and additional compensation were appropriate in light of the Small Cap Fund’s investment style.  In evaluating the subadvisory fee and additional compensation, the Board noted that such amounts are paid by the Adviser and that therefore the overall advisory fee paid by the Small Cap Fund is not directly affected by the subadvisory fee.

Costs and profitability.  The Board did not consider the cost of services provided by IronBridge or the profitability to IronBridge from its relationship with the Small Cap Fund because it did not view these factors as relevant given that the subadvisory fee is paid by the Adviser.

Economies of scale.  Because the subadvisory fee is not paid by the Small Cap Fund, the Board did not consider whether the fee should reflect any potential economies of scale that might be realized as Small Cap Fund assets increase.

Benefits to IronBridge.  The Board considered information presented regarding any benefits to IronBridge from serving as sub-adviser to the Small Cap Fund (in addition to the subadvisory fee).  The Board noted that IronBridge uses Small Cap Fund brokerage to obtain non-execution services on a limited basis.  The Board also noted that IronBridge receives consulting services from Frontier, an affiliate of the Adviser.



24




SMID Fund

Nature, extent and quality of the services provided.  The Board’s analysis of the nature, extent and quality of IronBridge’s services to the SMID Fund took into account knowledge gained from IronBridge’s presentations to the Board at meetings throughout the year.  The Board reviewed and considered IronBridge’s proprietary investment style, key personnel involved in providing investment management services to the SMID Fund and financial condition.  The Board also considered services provided by IronBridge under the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement, including the selection of broker-dealers for execution of portfolio transactions, monitoring adherence to the SMID Fund’s investment restrictions and assisting with the SMID Fund’s compliance with applicable securities laws and regulations.  The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by IronBridge to the SMID Fund was appropriate and that the SMID Fund was likely to continue to benefit from services provided by IronBridge under the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement.

Investment performance of the Fund.  The Board reviewed the performance record of the SMID Fund.  The Board noted that the SMID Fund had outperformed its benchmark index for the one-year, three-year and since-inception periods ended June 30, 2008.  The Board also considered IronBridge’s quarterly portfolio commentary and review of the SMID Fund’s performance.  The Board also compared the SMID Fund’s performance for the period ended June 30, 2008 to the performance for the corresponding composite of IronBridge’s separate account clients.  The Board concluded that IronBridge would continue to provide a high level of subadvisory services to the SMID Fund.

Subadvisory fees.  The Board reviewed and considered the subadvisory fees payable by the Adviser to IronBridge under the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement.  The Board considered the increase in subadvisory fees payable to IronBridge and the additional compensation that IronBridge is entitled to receive from amounts recouped by the Adviser from previously waived fees and reimbursed expenses under the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement, as discussed above. The Board determined that the subadvisory fee payable with respect to the SMID Fund and additional compensation were appropriate in light of the SMID Fund’s investment style.  In evaluating the subadvisory fee and additional compensation, the Board noted that such amounts are paid by the Adviser and that therefore the overall advisory fee paid by the SMID Fund is not directly affected by the subadvisory fee.

Costs and profitability.  The Board did not consider the cost of services provided by IronBridge or the profitability to IronBridge from its relationship with the SMID Fund because it did not view these factors as relevant given that the subadvisory fee is paid by the Adviser.

Economies of scale.  Because the subadvisory fee is not paid by the SMID Fund, the Board did not consider whether the fee should reflect any potential economies of scale that might be realized as SMID Fund assets increase.

Benefits to IronBridge.  The Board considered information presented regarding any benefits to IronBridge from serving as sub-adviser to the SMID Fund (in addition to the subadvisory fee).  The Board noted that IronBridge uses SMID Fund brokerage to obtain non-execution services on a limited basis.  The Board also noted that IronBridge receives consulting services from Frontier, an affiliate of the Adviser.

On the basis of its review of the foregoing information, the Board found that the terms of the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement were fair and reasonable and in the best interest of the shareholders of the Small Cap and SMID Funds.

The Board recommends that shareholders of the Small Cap and SMID Funds vote FOR the approval of the New IronBridge Subadvisory Agreement.

PROPOSAL 5

AND NEW STAR INSTITUTIONAL MANAGERS LIMITED


The Board recommends that the shareholders of the Frontegra New Star International Equity Fund (the “International Equity Fund”) approve the proposed new subadvisory agreement between the Adviser and New Star Institutional Managers Limited (“New Star”) (the “New NS Subadvisory Agreement”).


At the Meeting, shareholders of the International Equity Fund will be asked to approve the New NS Subadvisory Agreement.  The New NS Subadvisory Agreement contains substantially similar terms and the identical fee structure as the prior subadvisory agreement between the Adviser and New Star dated October 30, 2003, as amended (the “Prior NS Subadvisory Agreement”).  The New NS Subadvisory Agreement would simply continue the relationship between the Adviser and New Star.  Under the New NS Subadvisory Agreement, New Star provides continuous advice and recommendations concerning the investments of the International Equity Fund and is responsible for selecting the broker-dealers who execute the portfolio transactions.  The Board last approved the Prior NS Subadvisory Agreement on August 20, 2007 as part of its regular annual review process.  


Compensation Paid to New Star


Under the subadvisory agreement, New Star is compensated by the Adviser for its investment advisory services at the annual rate of 60% of the net advisory fee received by the Adviser, after giving effect to any fee waiver or reimbursement by the Adviser pursuant to an expense cap agreement, subject to a minimum of 0.33% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.  Pursuant to an expense cap agreement between the Adviser and the Corporation, on behalf of the International Equity Fund, the Adviser contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse the Fund to ensure that the total operating expenses for the Fund do not exceed 0.75% of the Fund’s average daily net asset value.  The expense cap agreement will continue in effect until October 31, 2009 with successive renewal terms of one year unless terminated by the Adviser or the Corporation prior to any such renewal.  The fee structure under the New NS Subadvisory Agreement is identical to the fee structure under the Prior Subadvisory Agreement.


During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, New Star received $2,501,646 as compensation for its subadvisory services to the International Equity Fund.

When the Board reviewed the New NS Subadvisory Agreement at a special meeting on July 24, 2008, the Board was provided materials relevant to its consideration of the New NS Subadvisory Agreement, such as New Star’s Form ADV and Code of Ethics, information regarding New Star’s compliance program, personnel and financial condition and memoranda prepared by the Corporation’s legal counsel.  The Board also reviewed the subadvisory fees that would be payable by the International Equity Fund and the Adviser under the New NS Subadvisory Agreement and the proposed expense cap agreement between the Corporation and the Adviser on behalf of the International Equity Fund.  The Board was also provided with the New Star’s responses to detailed requests submitted by the Corporation’s legal counsel.  

In approving the New NS Subadvisory Agreement between the Adviser and New Star regarding the International Equity Fund, the Board considered the following factors and made the following conclusions:

Nature, extent and quality of the services provided.  The Board’s analysis of the nature, extent and quality of New Star’s services to the Fund took into account knowledge gained from New Star’s presentations to the Board at meetings throughout the year.  The Board reviewed and considered New Star’s non-US equity (EAFE) investment strategy and experience as an international manager, key personnel involved in providing investment management services to the Fund and financial condition.  The Board also considered services provided by New Star under the Subadvisory Agreement, including the selection of broker-dealers for execution of portfolio transactions, monitoring adherence to the Fund’s investment restrictions and assisting with the Fund’s compliance with applicable securities



28




laws and regulations.  The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by New Star to the Fund was appropriate and that the Fund was likely to continue to benefit from services provided by New Star under the Subadvisory Agreement.

Investment performance of New Star.  The Board reviewed the performance record of the International Equity Fund and noted that the Fund had outperformed its benchmark index for the one-year period and had underperformed its benchmark index for the three-year and since-inception periods ended June 30, 2008.  The Board also considered New Star’s quarterly portfolio commentary and review of the Fund’s performance, including discussions of the reasons for the Fund’s underperformance during these periods.  The Board also compared the Fund’s recent performance to the performance of New Star’s composite of other accounts managed in the EAFE style.  The Board concluded that the Fund’s performance was satisfactory and that New Star would continue to provide a high level of subadvisory services to the Fund.

Subadvisory fees.  The Board reviewed and considered the subadvisory fee payable by the Adviser to New Star under the Subadvisory Agreement.  The Board also reviewed information regarding New Star’s fee structures for other institutional clients.  The Board determined that the subadvisory fee was appropriate.  In evaluating the subadvisory fee, the Board noted that the fee is paid by the Adviser and that therefore the overall advisory fee paid by the Fund is not directly affected by the subadvisory fee.

Costs and profitability.  The Board did not consider the cost of services provided by New Star under the Subadvisory Agreement or the profitability to New Star from its relationship with the International Equity Fund because it did not view these factors as relevant given that the subadvisory fee is paid by the Adviser.

Economies of scale.  Because the subadvisory fee is not paid by the International Equity Fund, the Board did not consider whether the fee should reflect any potential economies of scale that might be realized as Fund assets increase.

Benefits to New Star.  The Board considered information presented regarding any benefits to New Star from serving as subadviser to the International Equity Fund (in addition to the subadvisory fee).  New Star provided information to the Board regarding its policies for the use of soft dollar commissions. The Board also noted that New Star receives consulting services from Frontier, an affiliate of the Adviser.

On the basis of its review of the foregoing information, the Board found that the terms of the New NS Subadvisory Agreement were fair and reasonable and in the best interest of the shareholders of the International Equity Fund.

Quorum.  In order for a vote on any Proposal to be taken at the Meeting, there must exist a quorum of shareholders of the Corporation or Fund, as applicable, eligible to vote on such Proposal.  The presence at the Meeting, in person or by proxy, of shareholders representing one-third of the shares outstanding and entitled to vote on a Proposal constitutes a quorum for such Proposal.   For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum, abstentions and broker “non-votes” will be counted as present.  Broker “non-votes” occur when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting powers with respect to that proposal and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.

In the event that the necessary quorum to transact business is not present at the Meeting, or the vote required to approve any proposal is not obtained, the chairman of the Meeting, in order to permit the further solicitation of proxies, may adjourn the Meeting with respect to one or more proposals from time to time to a date not more than 120 days after the original record date of the Meeting without further notice other than announcement at the Meeting.  Alternatively, if a shareholder vote is called on any proposal to adjourn, the persons named as proxies, or their substitutes, will vote on such adjournment in their discretion.


Votes Required to Pass Proposals.

Proposal 1.  Shareholders of all Funds will vote together for purposes of electing the director nominees.  A director nominee must receive the affirmative vote of a plurality of votes cast at the Meeting in order to be elected to the Board.  Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the Proposal.

Proposal 2.  Shareholders of each Fund will vote separately for purposes of approving the New Advisory Agreement.  In order for the New Advisory Agreement to be approved with respect to a particular Fund, it must be approved by the holders of a “majority of the outstanding voting securities” of such Fund.  The term “majority of the outstanding voting securities,” as defined in the 1940 Act and as used in this Proxy Statement, means: the affirmative vote of the lesser of (i) 67% of the voting securities of a Fund present at the Meeting if more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund are present in person or by proxy or (ii) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund.  Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the effect of a “no” vote on the Proposal.

Proposal 3-6.  Only shareholders of the applicable Fund are entitled to vote on approval of the new subadvisory agreement applicable to their Fund.  Shareholders of each Fund will vote separately for purposes of approving the new subadvisory agreement applicable to their Fund.  In order for a new subadvisory agreement to be approved with respect to a particular Fund, it must be approved by the holders of a “majority of the outstanding voting securities” of such Fund.  The term “majority of the outstanding voting securities,” as defined in the 1940 Act and as used in



33




this Proxy Statement, means: the affirmative vote of the lesser of (i) 67% of the voting securities of a Fund present at the Meeting if more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund are present in person or by proxy or (ii) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund.  Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the effect of a “no” vote on a Proposal.

Voting Proxies.  Shareholders may provide their voting instructions through mail, telephone touch-tone voting or Internet voting.  These options require shareholders to input a control number which is located on the proxy card.  After inputting this number, shareholders will be prompted to provide their voting instructions on the Proposals.  Shareholders will have an opportunity to review their voting instructions and make any necessary changes before submitting their voting instructions and terminating their telephone call or Internet link.  In addition to confirming their voting instructions prior to submission, shareholders who vote via the Internet will, upon request, receive an e-mail confirming their instructions.

If a shareholder wishes to attend the Meeting, the shareholder may still submit the proxy card originally sent with this Proxy Statement.  Should shareholders require additional information regarding the proxy or a replacement proxy card, they may call the Corporation toll-free at 1-888-825-2100.  Any proxy given by a shareholder is revocable until voted at the Meeting.

Any shareholder of the Funds giving a proxy has the power to revoke it prior to its exercise by mail (addressed to the Secretary at the principal executive office of the Corporation, at the address for the Corporation shown at the beginning of this Proxy Statement), or in person at the Meeting, by executing a superseding proxy or by submitting a notice of revocation to the Fund.  All properly executed proxies received in time for the Meeting will be voted as specified in the proxy or, if no specification is made, FOR the Proposals referred to in the Proxy Statement and in the discretion of the persons named as proxies on such procedural matters that may properly come before the Meeting.

The Board, at any time, may elect to withdraw a Proposal from consideration at the Meeting.  A decision to withdraw a Proposal may arise if, because of changed circumstances, the Proposal is either no longer necessary or appropriate.  Should the Board elect to withdraw a Proposal, the Proposal will not be presented at the Meeting, and any proxies received regarding that Proposal will not be voted.  If time permits, shareholders will be notified if the Proposal is withdrawn.

Other Shareholder Information.  As of the Record Date, each officer and director individually, and the officers and Directors as a group, beneficially owned less than 1% of the outstanding shares of each Fund.  As of the Record Date, the following persons are known by the Corporation to own beneficially or of record 5% or more of the outstanding Shares of any class of the Funds:

7.

Expenses Paid by Corporation.


(a)

Except as provided in this paragraph, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to impose upon Frontegra the obligation to incur, pay, or reimburse the Corpora­tion for any expenses not specifically assumed by Frontegra under paragraph 2 above.  Each Fund shall pay or cause to be paid all of its expenses and the Fund’s allocable share of the Corporation’s expenses, including, but not limited to, investment adviser fees; any compensation, fees, or reimbursements which the Corporation pays to its Directors who are not interested persons (as that phrase is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Act) of Frontegra; fees and expenses of the custodian, transfer agent, registrar or dividend disbursing agent; current legal, accounting and printing expenses; administrative, clerical, recordkeeping and bookkeeping expenses; brokerage commissions and all other expenses in connection with the execution of Fund transactions; all expenses of bond and insurance coverage which inure to the Corporation’s benefit, including liability and fidelity bond coverage; interest; all federal, state and local taxes (including stamp, excise, income and franchise taxes); expenses of shareholders’ meetings and of preparing, printing and distributing proxy statements, notices and reports to shareholders; expenses of preparing and filing reports and tax returns with federal and state regulatory authorities; the maintenance of its compliance program; the maintenance of the Registration Statement under the applicable federal and state securities laws; all expenses incurred in complying with all federal and state laws and the laws of any foreign country applicable to the issue, offer, or sale of Shares of the Funds, including but not limited to, all costs involved in the registration or qualification of Shares of the Funds for sale in any jurisdiction and all costs involved in preparing, printing and distributing prospectuses and statements of additional information to existing shareholders of the Funds; all expenses incurred in connection with litigation, proceedings and claims and the legal obligations of the Corporation to indemnify its Directors, employees, shareholders and agents with respect thereto; all expenses of meetings of the Directors and shareholders except for such costs described in Section 2(c); and such compensation payable to its compliance officer(s) as may be approved by the Directors from time to time.


8.

Brokerage Commissions.  For purposes of this Agreement, brokerage commissions paid by a Fund upon the purchase or sale of securities shall be considered a cost of the securities of the Fund and shall be paid by the respective Fund.  Frontegra is authorized and directed to place Fund transactions only with brokers and dealers who render satisfactory service in the execution of orders at the most favorable prices and at reasonable



A-3




commission rates, provided, however, that Frontegra may pay a broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if Frontegra determines in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the overall responsibilities of Frontegra.  In placing Fund business with such broker or dealers, Frontegra shall seek the best execution of each transaction, and all such brokerage placement shall be made in compliance with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and other applicable state and federal laws.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall retain the right to direct the placement of all Fund transactions, and the Directors may establish policies or guidelines to be followed by Frontegra in placing Fund transactions for the Funds pursuant to the foregoing provisions.  


9.

Proprietary Rights.  Frontegra has proprietary rights in the name of each Fund on whose behalf the Corporation executes an Exhibit to this Agreement and the Corporation’s name.  Frontegra may withdraw the use of such names from the Fund or the Corporation.


10.

Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated at any time, without penalty, by the Directors of the Corporation or by the shareholders of a Fund acting by the vote of at least a majority of its outstanding voting securities (as that phrase is defined in Section 2(a)(42) of the Act), provided in either case that 60 days’ written notice of termination be given to Frontegra at its principal place of business.  This Agreement may be terminated by Frontegra at any time by giving 60 days’ written notice of termination to the Corporation, addressed to its principal place of business.  


11.

Assignment.  This Agreement shall terminate automatically in the event of any assignment (as the term is defined in Section 2(a)(4) of the Act) of this Agreement.


12.

Term.  This Agreement shall be executed and become effective as of the date first written above.  This Agreement shall begin for each Fund as of the date of execution of the applicable Exhibit and shall continue in effect with respect to each Fund (and any subsequent Funds added pursuant to an Exhibit) for two years from the date of this Agreement or the date of execution of the applicable Exhibit, and thereafter for successive periods of one year, subject to the provisions for termination and all of the other terms and conditions hereof if such continuation shall be specifically approved at least annually by the vote of a majority of the Directors of the Corporation, including a majority of the Directors who are not parties to this Agreement or interested persons of any such party (other than as Directors of the Corporation), cast in person at a meeting called for that purpose, or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of each Fund.


13.

Liability.  Neither Frontegra nor any of its officers, directors, agents or employees shall be liable or responsible to the Corporation or its shareholders for any error of judgment, mistake of law or any loss arising out of any investment, or for any other act or omission in the performance by Frontegra of its duties under this Agreement, except for liability resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence on Frontegra’s part or from reckless disregard by Frontegra of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, federal securities laws and certain state laws impose liabilities under certain circumstances on persons who have acted in good faith, and therefore nothing herein shall in any way constitute a waiver or limitation of any rights which the Corporation or any shareholder of the Corporation may have under any federal securities or state law.


14.

Amendments.  This Agreement may be amended by the mutual consent of the parties, provided that the terms of each such amendment shall be approved by a majority of those Directors who are not interested persons (as that phrase is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Act) of the Corporation or Frontegra, voting in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval, or if required by the Act, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as that phrase is defined in Section 2(a)(42) of the Act) of each Fund.

Exhibit B

SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT


THIS SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT dated as of the ___ day of ____________, 2008 between Frontegra Asset Management, Inc., an Illinois corporation (the “Adviser”), and Reams Asset Management Company, LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Indiana (the “Sub-Adviser”).

WHEREAS the Adviser has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement dated as of ____________________, 2008 (the “Advisory Agreement”) with Frontegra Funds, Inc. (the “Fund”), an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), with respect to the Fund’s investment portfolios; and

WHEREAS the Adviser wishes to retain the Sub-Adviser to furnish certain investment advisory services to certain portfolios of the Fund, and the Sub-Adviser is willing to furnish those services;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained, the parties agree as follows:

1.

Appointment.  The Adviser hereby appoints the Sub-Adviser as an investment sub-adviser with respect to each of the Fund’s portfolios named on an Exhibit to this Agreement (each, a “Portfolio”) for the period and on the terms set forth in this Agreement. The Sub-Adviser accepts such appointment and agrees to render the services herein set forth, for the compensation herein provided.

2.

Duties as Sub-Adviser.

(a)

Subject to the supervision of and any guidelines adopted by the Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser will provide a continuous investment program for the Portfolios, including investment research and management. The Sub-Adviser will determine from time to time what investments will be purchased, retained or sold by the Portfolios. The Sub-Adviser will be responsible for placing purchase and sell orders for investments and for other related transactions. The Sub-Adviser will provide services under this Agreement in accordance with each Portfolio’s investment objectives, policies and restrictions as stated with respect to such Portfolio in the Fund’s Registration Statement on Form N-1A and the Fund’s compliance policies and restrictions adopted pursuant to Rule 38a-1 of the 1940 Act.  

(b)

The Sub-Adviser agrees that, in placing orders with brokers, it will obtain the best net result in terms of price and execution; provided that, on behalf of the Portfolios, the Sub-Adviser may, in its discretion, use brokers who provide the Sub-Adviser with research, analysis, advice and similar services to execute transactions with respect to a Portfolio, and the Sub-Adviser may pay to those brokers in return for brokerage and research services a higher commission than may be charged by other brokers, so long as (i) such commission is paid in compliance with all applicable state and Federal securities laws and in accordance with this Agreement and (ii) the Sub-Adviser has determined in good faith that such commission is reasonable in terms either of the particular transaction or of the overall responsibility of the Sub-Adviser to such Portfolio and its other clients and that the total commissions paid by such Portfolio will be reasonable in relation to the benefits to such Portfolio over the long term. In no instance will securities of any Portfolio be purchased from or sold to the Sub-Adviser, or any affiliated person thereof except in accordance with the Federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. The Sub-Adviser may aggregate sales and purchase orders with respect to the assets of the Portfolios with similar orders being made simultaneously for other accounts advised by the Sub-Adviser or its affiliates. Whenever the Sub-Adviser simultaneously places orders to purchase or sell the same security on behalf of a Portfolio and one or more other accounts advised by the Sub-Adviser, the orders will be allocated as to price and amount among all such accounts in a manner believed to be equitable over time to each such account. The Adviser recognizes that in some cases this procedure may adversely affect the results obtained for such Portfolio.



B-1




(c)

The Sub-Adviser will maintain all books and records required to be maintained by the Sub-Adviser pursuant to the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder with respect to transactions by the Sub-Adviser on behalf of the Portfolios, and will furnish the Board and the Adviser with such periodic and special reports as the Board or the Adviser may reasonably request.  In compliance with the requirements of Rule 31a-3 under the 1940 Act, the Sub-Adviser hereby agrees that all records which it maintains for the Portfolios are the property of the Fund, agrees to preserve for the periods prescribed by Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act any records which it maintains for the Fund and which are required to be maintained by Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act, and further agrees to surrender promptly to the Fund any records which it maintains for the Portfolios upon request by the Fund.

(d)

At such times as shall be reasonably requested by the Board or the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser will provide the Board and the Adviser with economic and investment analyses and reports as well as quarterly reports setting forth the performance of the Portfolios and make available to the Board and the Adviser any economic, statistical and investment services normally available to institutional or other customers of the Sub-Adviser.  Upon reasonable advance notice, twice each calendar year the Sub-Adviser will make its officers and employees available to meet with the Board and employees of the Adviser at the Fund’s principal place of business or another mutually agreed upon location to review the securities of the Portfolios.  Subadviser will inform the Corporation and Adviser of changes in investment strategy, tactics, ownership or key personnel.

(e)

In accordance with procedures adopted by the Board, as amended from time to time, the Sub-Adviser will provide assistance with respect to the valuation of securities held by the Portfolios and will use its reasonable efforts to arrange for the provision of a price from a party or parties independent of the Sub-Adviser for each security held by a Portfolio for which the Fund or the Fund’s administrator is unable to obtain prices in the ordinary course of business from an automated pricing service.

3.

Further Duties.  In all matters relating to the performance of this Agreement, the Sub-Adviser will act in conformity with the Fund’s Articles of Incorporation, By-laws and currently effective registration statement under the 1940 Act and any amendments or supplements thereto (the “Registration Statement”) and with the written instructions and written directions of the Board and the Adviser and will comply with the requirements of the 1940 Act, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”), the rules under each, Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) as applicable to regulated investment companies, the diversification requirements applicable to the Portfolios under Section 817(h) of the Code and all other applicable Federal and state laws and regulations. The Adviser agrees to provide to the Sub-Adviser copies of the Fund’s Articles of Incorporation, By-laws, Registration Statement, written instructions and directions of the Board and the Adviser, and any amendments or supplements to any of these materials as soon as practicable after such materials become available; provided, however, that the Sub-Adviser’s duty under this Agreement to act in conformity with any document, instruction or guidelines produced by the Fund or the Adviser shall not arise until it has been delivered to the Sub-Adviser.  In making any changes to a Portfolio’s objectives, policies or restrictions the Board will make due allowance for the time within which the Sub-Adviser shall have to bring such Portfolio into compliance with such changes.

4.

Proxies.  The Sub-Adviser shall vote all securities held by a Portfolio in accordance with any policies adopted by the Board.

5.

Expenses.  During the term of this Agreement, the Sub-Adviser will bear all expenses incurred by it in connection with its services under this Agreement other than commissions, taxes, fees or other charges or expenses directly related to the purchase, sale or exchange of any securities for the Portfolios. The Sub-Adviser shall not be responsible for any expenses incurred by the Fund, the Portfolios or the Adviser.

6.

Compensation.

(a)

For the services provided by the Sub-Adviser with respect to a Portfolio pursuant to this Agreement, the Adviser will pay to the Sub-Adviser a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate set forth on the Exhibit relating to such Portfolio.



B-2




(b)

The fee due the Sub-Adviser with respect to each Portfolio shall be computed daily and shall be paid monthly to the Sub-Adviser on or before the last business day of the next succeeding calendar month.  Along with each such monthly payment the Adviser shall provide the Sub-Adviser with a schedule showing the manner in which such fee was computed.

(c)

With respect to the Sub-Adviser’s fee relating to any Portfolio that is calculated as a percentage of such Portfolio’s average daily net assets, unless otherwise provided in the Exhibit relating to such Portfolio, if the Adviser waives any portion of its management fee either voluntarily or contractually and the resulting net management fee received by the Adviser is less than the compensation due to the Sub-Adviser pursuant to subparagraph (a) above, then the Adviser shall only be required to pay the Sub-Adviser the net management fee.

(d)

If this Agreement becomes effective or terminates with respect to a Portfolio before the end of any month, the fee relating to such Portfolio for the period from the effective date with respect to such Portfolio to the end of the month or from the beginning of such month to the date of termination, as the case may be, shall be prorated according to the proportion which such period bears to the full month in which such effectiveness or termination occurs.

7.

Limitation of Liability.  The Sub-Adviser shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by any Portfolio, the Fund or its shareholders or by the Adviser in connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the performance of its duties or from reckless disregard by it of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.

8.

Representations of Sub-Adviser.  The Sub-Adviser represents, warrants and agrees as follows:

(a)

The Sub-Adviser (i) is registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act and will continue to be so registered for so long as this Agreement remains in effect; (ii) is not prohibited by the 1940 Act or the Advisers Act from performing the services contemplated by this Agreement; (iii) has met, and will seek to continue to meet for so long as this Agreement remains in effect, any other applicable Federal or state requirements, or the applicable requirements of any regulatory or industry self-regulatory agency, necessary to be met in order to perform the services contemplated by this Agreement; (iv) has the authority to enter into and perform the services contemplated by this Agreement; and (v) will promptly notify the Adviser of the occurrence of any event that would disqualify the Sub-Adviser from serving as an investment adviser of an investment company pursuant to Section 9(a) of the 1940 Act or otherwise.

(b)

The Sub-Adviser has adopted a written code of ethics complying with the requirements of Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act and will provide the Adviser and the Board with a copy of such code of ethics, together with evidence of its adoption.  The Sub-Adviser will provide the Adviser and the Board with a copy of any amendment to its code of ethics promptly following the Sub-Adviser’s approval of any such amendment. Within 15 calendar days of the end of the last calendar quarter of each year that this Agreement is in effect, the President of the Sub-Adviser shall certify to the Adviser that the Sub-Adviser has complied with the requirements of Rule 17j-1 during the previous year and that there has been no violation of the Sub-Adviser’s code of ethics or, if such a violation has occurred, that appropriate action was taken in response to such violation. Upon the written request of the Adviser and the extent permitted by law, the Sub-Adviser shall permit the Adviser, its employees or its agents to examine the reports required to be made to the Sub-Adviser by Rule 17j-1(c)(1) and all other records relevant to the Sub-Adviser’s code of ethics.

10.

Services Not Exclusive.  The Sub-Adviser may act as an investment adviser to, and may perform management and any other services for, any other person, association, firm, corporation or other entity, and take any action or do anything in connection therewith or related thereto, except as prohibited by applicable law; provided, however, that except as consented to by the Adviser in writing, the Sub-Adviser may not act as the investment adviser to, or sponsor, any registered investment company or portfolio thereof that has the same or a substantially similar principal investment strategy as any Portfolio.  The Sub-Adviser’s performance of investment advisory, management or other services permitted under this Section 10 shall not be restricted in any manner or otherwise affected by any aspect of any relationship of the Sub-Adviser to or with the Fund, the Portfolios or the Adviser or deemed to violate or give rise to any duty or obligation of the Sub-Adviser to the Fund, the Portfolios or the Adviser except as otherwise imposed by law or by this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sub-Adviser may act as an investment sub-adviser to another investment company or portfolio thereof that is managed by an investment adviser unaffiliated with the Sub-Adviser.  The Sub-Adviser shall provide reasonable advance notice to Adviser of any such engagement(s).

11.

by a vote of a majority of those members of the Board who are not parties to this Agreement or interested persons of the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser or the Fund, and

(b)

if required by the 1940 Act, by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities issued by such Portfolio (in the case of (b), the Fund may rely upon an SEC order or no-action letter permitting it to modify this Agreement without such vote).

As used in this Agreement, the terms “majority of the outstanding voting securities,” “affiliated person,” “interested person,” “assignment,” “broker,” “investment adviser,” “net assets,” “sale,” “sell” and “security” shall have the same meaning as such terms have in the 1940 Act, subject to such exemption as may be granted by the SEC by any rule, regulation or order. Where the effect of a requirement of the Federal securities laws reflected in any provision of this Agreement is made less restrictive by a rule, regulation or order of the SEC, whether of special or general application, such provision shall be deemed to incorporate the effect of such rule, regulation or order. This Agreement may be signed in counterpart.

16.

Sole Agreement.  This Agreement represents the entire agreement and understanding between the parties and sets forth the rights, duties and obligations of each party to the other as of its date.  Any prior agreements, understandings and representations relating to the subject matter of this Agreement are incorporated herein.

Exhibit C

SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT


THIS SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT is entered into as of the ____ day of_______, 2008, between Frontegra Asset Management, Inc. (“Adviser”) and IronBridge Capital Management, L.P. (“Subadviser”).


W I T N E S S E T H


WHEREAS, Frontegra Funds, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Corporation”), is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”);


WHEREAS, pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement between the Corporation and the Adviser (the “Advisory Agreement”), the Corporation has retained Adviser to act as its investment adviser;


WHEREAS, the Advisory Agreement permits Adviser to delegate certain of its duties to a subadviser, subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act; and


WHEREAS, Adviser desires to retain Subadviser as subadviser with respect to the Corporation’s series named on an Exhibit to this Agreement (each, a “Fund”).


NOW, THEREFORE, Adviser and Subadviser mutually agree as follows:


1.

Appointment as Subadviser.  Adviser hereby retains Subadviser to act as subadviser for the Funds, subject to the supervision of Adviser and the Board of Directors of the Corporation and subject to the terms of this Agreement, and Subadviser agrees to accept such employment.


2.

Duties of Subadviser.


(a)

Investments.  Subject to the 1940 Act, the direction of Adviser, the Board of Directors of the Corporation and the investment policies and restrictions of each Fund as set forth in the Corporation’s current registration statement on Form N-1A and the compliance policies and procedures of such Fund, Subadviser is authorized and directed to purchase, hold, sell and monitor on a continuous basis investments for the accounts of the Funds (the “Investments”), with custody of such investments to be maintained by third parties, as more fully set forth below.  In providing these services, Subadviser will conduct a continual program of investment, evaluation and, if appropriate, sale and reinvestment of the Investments.  Adviser will provide Subadviser with reasonable assistance in connection with Subadviser’s activities under this Agreement, including without limitation, information concerning each Fund, its funds available for investment and general affairs of the Corporation.


(b)

Allocation of Brokerage.  Subject to the supervision of Adviser and the Board of Directors of the Corporation, Subadviser is authorized and directed to establish and maintain, through third party custodians, accounts on behalf of the Funds, place orders for the purchase and sale of Investments with or through such persons, brokers or dealers as Subadviser may elect, and negotiate commissions to be paid on such transactions.  In selecting brokers or dealers and placing orders, Subadviser will seek to obtain the most favorable combination of price and execution available (considering all factors it deems relevant, including price, size of transaction, nature of the market for the security, amount of commission, if any, timing, reputation of broker or dealer and other factors), except to the extent it may be permitted to pay higher brokerage commissions for brokerage and research services as provided below.


The Subadviser may cause each Fund to pay a broker that provides brokerage and research services to the Subadviser a commission in excess of the commission that another broker would have charged for effecting that transaction provided (i) the Subadviser determines in good faith that the commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by the executing broker in the terms of the particular transaction or in terms of the Subadviser’s overall responsibilities with respect to such Fund



C-1




and the other accounts as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion, and (ii) such commission is paid in compliance with all applicable state and federal laws, including Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and in accordance with this Agreement.


To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, if Subadviser deems the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interests of a Fund as well as other clients of Subadviser, it may aggregate the securities to be sold or purchased in order to obtain the most favorable price or lower brokerage commissions and efficient execution.  In such event, allocation of these securities and the expenses incurred in the transaction will be made by Subadviser in the manner it considers to be the most equitable and consistent with its fiduciary obligations to each Fund and its other clients.  


(c)

Securities Transactions.  Subadviser and any of its affiliated persons will not purchase securities or other instruments from or sell securities or other instruments to any Fund; provided, however, Subadviser may purchase securities or other instruments from or sell securities or other instruments to a Fund if such transaction is permissible under applicable law and such Fund’s procedures or in accordance with an exemptive order.  


(d)

Books and Records.  Subadviser will maintain all books and records required to be maintained by Subadviser in relation to the Funds pursuant to the 1940 Act, including without limitation, a daily ledger of such assets and liabilities relating thereto and brokerage and other records of all securities transactions, and will furnish to Adviser in a timely manner all information relating to Subadviser’s services under this Agreement.  The Subadviser will also preserve such books and records for the periods prescribed in Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act.  All books and records relating to the Funds remain the sole property of the Corporation and shall be immediately surrendered to the Corporation upon request, provided that Subadviser may retain a copy of the books and records.  Upon request during any business day, all books and records maintained under this Agreement immediately will be made available to the Corporation or Adviser.


(e)

Information Concerning Investments.  As Adviser or the Board of Directors of the Corporation may reasonably request, Subadviser will furnish reports on portfolio transactions and reports on Investments held in the portfolio in such detail as the requesting party may reasonably request.  As mutually agreed upon, Subadviser also will provide the Funds and Adviser periodic economic and investment analyses and reports or other investment services normally available to Subadviser’s other clients.  Upon reasonable advance notice, Subadviser will make its officers and employees available to meet with Adviser and the Corporation’s Board of Directors at the Corporation’s principal place of business or another mutually agreed location to review the Investments of the Funds.  Subadviser will inform the Corporation and Adviser of changes in investment strategy, tactics, ownership or key personnel.  Subadviser also will provide information or perform additional acts as are customarily performed by a subadviser or which are required for the Funds or Adviser to comply with their respective obligations under applicable law, including without limitation the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the 1940 Act, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”), the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and any state securities law, rule or regulation.

(f)

Custody Arrangements.  Subadviser acknowledges receipt of a Custody Agreement for the Funds and, to the extent within its control, will comply with the requirements of the Custody Agreement.  On each business day, Subadviser will provide each Fund’s custodian with information relating to all transactions concerning the Fund’s assets as Adviser or the custodian requests.

(g)

Exhibit D

SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT

THIS SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT is entered into as of the ___ day of _____, 2008 between Frontegra Asset Management, Inc. (“Adviser”) and New Star Institutional Managers Limited (“Subadviser”).

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, Frontegra Funds, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Corporation”), is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement between the Corporation and the Adviser (the “Advisory Agreement”), the Corporation has retained Adviser to act as its investment adviser;

WHEREAS, the Advisory Agreement permits Adviser to delegate certain of its duties to a subadviser, subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act; and

WHEREAS, Adviser desires to retain Subadviser as subadviser with respect to the Corporation’s series named on an Exhibit to this Agreement (each, a “Fund”).

NOW, THEREFORE, Adviser and Subadviser mutually agree as follows:

1.

Appointment as Subadviser.  Adviser hereby retains Subadviser to act as subadviser for the Funds, subject to the supervision of Adviser and the Board of Directors of the Corporation and subject to the terms of this Agreement, and Subadviser agrees to accept such employment.

2.

Duties of Subadviser.  

(a)

Investments.  Subject to the 1940 Act, the direction of Adviser, the Board of Directors of the Corporation, the investment policies and restrictions of each Fund as set forth in the Corporation’s current registration statement on Form N-1A and the compliance policies and procedures, Subadviser is authorized and directed to purchase, hold, sell and monitor on a continuous basis investments for the accounts of the Funds (the “Investments”).  In providing these services, Subadviser will conduct a continual program of investment, evaluation and, if appropriate, sale and reinvestment of the Investments.  Adviser will provide Subadviser with reasonable assistance in connection with Subadviser’s activities under this Agreement, including without limitation, information concerning each Fund, the daily funds available for investment and general affairs of the Corporation.

(b)

Allocation of Brokerage.  Subject to the supervision of Adviser and the Board of Directors of the Corporation, Subadviser is authorized and directed to establish and maintain accounts on behalf of the Funds, place orders for the purchase and sale of Investments with or through such persons, brokers or dealers as Subadviser may elect, and negotiate commissions to be paid on such transactions.  In selecting brokers or dealers and placing orders, Subadviser will seek to obtain the most favorable combination of price and execution available (considering all factors it deems relevant including price, size of transaction, nature of the market for the security, amount of commission, if any, timing, reputation of broker or dealer and other factors), except to the extent it may be permitted to pay higher brokerage commissions for brokerage and research services as provided below.

The Subadviser may cause each Fund to pay a broker that provides brokerage and research services to the Subadviser a commission in excess of the commission that another broker would have charged for effecting that transaction provided (i) the Subadviser determines in good faith that the commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by the executing broker in the terms of the particular transaction or in terms of the Subadviser’s overall responsibilities with respect to the Fund and the other accounts as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion, (ii) such commission is paid in compliance with all applicable state and federal laws, including Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of



D-1




1934, as amended, and in accordance with this Agreement, and (iii) in the opinion of the Subadviser, the total commissions paid by each Fund will be reasonable in relation to the benefits to the Fund over the long term.

To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, if Subadviser deems the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interests of the Fund as well as other clients of Subadviser, it may aggregate the securities to be sold or purchased in order to obtain the most favorable price or lower brokerage commissions and efficient execution.  In such event, allocation of these securities and the expenses incurred in the transaction will be made by Subadviser in the manner it considers to be the most equitable and consistent with its fiduciary obligations to each Fund and its other clients.  

(c)

Securities Transactions.  Subadviser and any of its affiliated persons will not purchase securities or other instruments from or sell securities or other instruments to any Fund; provided, however, Subadviser may purchase securities or other instruments from or sell securities or other instruments to a Fund if such transaction is permissible under applicable law and such Fund’s procedures or in accordance with an exemptive order.  

(d)

Books and Records.  Subadviser will maintain all books and records required to be maintained pursuant to the 1940 Act, including without limitation, a daily ledger of such assets and liabilities relating thereto and brokerage and other records of all securities transactions, and will furnish to Adviser in a timely manner all information relating to Subadviser’s services under this Agreement.  The Subadviser will also preserve such books and records for the periods prescribed in Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act.  All books and records remain the sole property of the Corporation and shall be immediately surrendered to the Corporation upon request, provided that Subadviser may retain a copy of the books and records.  Upon request during any business day, all books and records maintained under this Agreement immediately will be made available to the Corporation or Adviser.

(e)

Information Concerning Investments.  As Adviser or the Board of Directors of the Corporation may reasonably request, Subadviser will furnish reports on portfolio transactions and reports on Investments held in the portfolio in such detail as the requesting party may request.  As mutually agreed upon, Subadviser also will provide the Funds and Adviser periodic economic and investment analyses and reports or other investment services normally available to Subadviser’s other clients.  Upon reasonable advance notice, Subadviser will make its officers and employees available to meet with Adviser and the Corporation’s Board of Directors at the Corporation’s principal place of business or another mutually agreed location to review the Investments of the Funds.  Subadviser will inform the Corporation and Adviser of changes in investment strategy, tactics, ownership or key personnel.  Subadviser also will provide information or perform additional acts as are customarily performed by a subadviser or which are required for the Fund or Adviser to comply with their respective obligations under applicable law, including without limitation the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the 1940 Act, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”), the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and any state securities law, rule or regulation.

(f)

Custody Arrangements.  Subadviser acknowledges receipt of a Custody Agreement for the Funds and, to the extent within its control, will comply with the requirements of the Custody Agreement.  On each business day, Subadviser will provide each Fund’s custodian with information relating to all transactions concerning the Fund’s assets as Adviser or the custodian requests.

(g)

Voting of Proxies.  Subadviser shall vote all securities in which it invests a Fund’s assets in accordance with any policies adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund.

(h)

Agent.  Subject to any other written instructions of Adviser, the Corporation or the Funds, Subadviser is hereby appointed as Adviser’s, the Corporation’s and the Fund’s agent and attorney-in-fact for the limited purpose of executing account documentation, agreements, contracts and other documents as Subadviser is requested by brokers, dealers, counterparties and other persons in connection with its management of the Investments; provided, however, that any such documentation that the Subadviser shall execute shall comply with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to the business of the Adviser and the Corporation, including but not limited to the Advisers Act, the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.  The Subadviser shall provide the Adviser and the Corporation with copies of any documents executed on behalf of the Adviser or the Corporation hereunder as soon as possible after the execution of any such documents.

Compliance with Applicable Law and Governing Documents.  With respect to all matters relating to its performance under this Agreement, Subadviser and its directors, officers, partners, employees and interested persons will act in accordance with all applicable law.  Subadviser will act in accordance with the Corporation’s governing instruments and regulatory filings, including the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, By-Laws, currently effective Registration Statement under the 1940 Act and the 1933 Act and Notice of Eligibility under Rule 4.5 of the Commodity Exchange Act (the “CEA”), compliance policies and procedures adopted pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act and the Funds’ Prospectuses, policies and procedures (collectively, “Governing Instruments and Regulatory Filings”) and any instructions or directions of the Corporation, its Board of Directors or Adviser which whenever practicable the Adviser or the Corporation shall provide in writing.  Adviser will provide Subadviser with any amendments, supplements or other changes to the Governing Instruments and Regulatory Filings as soon as practicable after such materials become available, and upon receipt, Subadviser will act in accordance with such amendments, supplements or other changes.

(j)

Exhibit E

SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT

THIS SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the ___ day of _________, 2008 by and between Frontegra Asset Management, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Adviser”) and Netols Asset Management, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation (“Subadviser”).

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, Frontegra Funds, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Corporation”), is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement between the Corporation and the Adviser (the “Advisory Agreement”), the Corporation has retained Adviser to act as its investment adviser;

WHEREAS, the Advisory Agreement permits Adviser to delegate certain of its duties to a subadviser, subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act; and

WHEREAS, Adviser desires to retain Subadviser as subadviser for the Frontegra Netols Small Cap Value Fund (the “Fund”), a series of the Corporation.

NOW, THEREFORE, Adviser and Subadviser mutually agree as follows:

1.

Appointment as Subadviser.  Adviser hereby retains Subadviser to act as subadviser for the Fund, subject to the supervision of Adviser and the Board of Directors of the Corporation and subject to the terms of this Agreement, and Subadviser agrees to accept such employment.

2.

Duties of Subadviser.

(a)

Investments.  Subject to the 1940 Act, the direction of Adviser, the Board of Directors of the Corporation, the investment policies and restrictions of the Fund as set forth in the Corporation’s current registration statement on Form N-1A and the compliance policies and procedures, Subadviser is authorized and directed to purchase, hold, sell and monitor on a continuous basis investments for the account of the Fund (the “Investments”).  In providing these services, Subadviser will conduct a continual program of investment, evaluation and, if appropriate, sale and reinvestment of the Investments.  Adviser will provide Subadviser with reasonable assistance in connection with Subadviser’s activities under this Agreement, including without limitation, providing such information concerning the Fund, its daily funds available for investment and general affairs of the Corporation as Subadviser may request.

(b)

Allocation of Brokerage.  Subject to the supervision of Adviser and the Board of Directors of the Corporation, Subadviser is authorized and directed to establish and maintain accounts on behalf of the Fund, place orders for the purchase and sale of Investments with or through such persons, brokers or dealers as Subadviser may elect, and negotiate commissions to be paid on such transactions.  In selecting brokers or dealers and placing orders, Subadviser will seek to obtain the most favorable combination of price and execution available (considering all factors it deems relevant under the circumstances, including price, size of transaction, nature of the market for the security, amount of commission, if any, timing, reputation of broker or dealer and other factors), except to the extent it may be permitted to pay higher brokerage commissions for brokerage and research services as provided below.

Subadviser may cause the Fund to pay a broker that provides brokerage and research services to the Subadviser a commission in excess of the commission that another broker would have charged for effecting that transaction provided (i) Subadviser determines in good faith that the commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by the executing broker in the terms of the particular transaction; (ii) such commission is paid in material compliance with all applicable state and federal laws, including Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and in accordance with this Agreement, and (iii) in the opinion of the Subadviser, the total commissions paid by the Fund will be



E-1




reasonable in relation to the services received.  Subadviser shall provide such information regarding any such “soft dollar” arrangements that the Subadviser maintains with respect to the Fund as may be requested from time to time by the Fund and the Adviser.

To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, Subadviser may aggregate the securities to be sold or purchased to seek to obtain the most favorable price or lower brokerage commissions and efficient execution.  In such event, allocation of these securities and the expenses incurred in the transaction will be made by Subadviser in the manner it considers to be the most equitable and consistent with its fiduciary obligations to the Fund and its other clients.  

(c)

Securities Transactions.  Subadviser and any of its affiliated persons will not purchase securities or other instruments from or sell securities or other instruments to the Fund; provided, however, Subadviser may purchase securities or other instruments from or sell securities or other instruments to the Fund if such transaction is permissible under applicable law and the Fund’s procedures or in accordance with an exemptive order.

(d)

Books and Records.  Subadviser will maintain all books and records required to be maintained pursuant to the 1940 Act with respect to its management of the Fund, including without limitation, a daily ledger of such assets and liabilities relating thereto and brokerage and other records of all securities transactions, and will furnish to Adviser or the Fund in a timely manner copies of all such books and records upon written request.  Subadviser will also preserve such books and records for the periods prescribed in Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act.

(e)

Information Provided by Subadviser.  As Adviser or the Board of Directors of the Corporation may reasonably request, Subadviser will furnish reports on portfolio transactions and reports on Investments held in the portfolio in such detail as the requesting party may reasonably request.  Subadviser will prepare, subject to review by the Adviser, a letter to shareholders to be included in the Fund’s semi-annual reports.  As mutually agreed upon by the parties to this Agreement, Subadviser also will provide the Fund and Adviser quarterly economic and investment analyses and reports or other investment services normally available to Subadviser’s other clients.  Upon reasonable advance notice, Subadviser will make its officers and employees available to meet with Adviser and the Corporation’s Board of Directors at the Corporation’s principal place of business or another mutually agreed location to review the Investments of the Fund.  Subadviser will inform the Corporation and Adviser of material changes in investment strategy, tactics, ownership or key personnel.  Subadviser also will provide information to the Adviser to assist the Adviser in ensuring the Fund’s compliance with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the 1940 Act, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and any state securities law, rule or regulation.

(f)

Custody Arrangements.  Subadviser acknowledges receipt of a Custody Agreement for the Fund and, to the extent within its control, will comply in all material respects with the provisions of that agreement that relate to the Subadviser’s duties hereunder.  On each business day, Subadviser will provide the Fund’s custodian with information relating to all transactions concerning the Fund’s assets as Adviser or the custodian reasonably requests.

(g)

Voting of Proxies.  Subadviser shall be responsible for voting proxies with respect to securities held by the Fund.  Subadviser shall provide the Corporation, in a timely manner, the proxy voting records of the Fund as required by Form N-PX and such other information regarding proxy voting as may reasonably be requested by the Fund’s Board of Directors or Adviser.  Subadviser shall use its good faith judgment to vote or abstain from voting proxies in a manner which it reasonably believes best serves the interests of Fund shareholders.  

(h)

Agent.  Subject to any other written instructions of Adviser, the Corporation or the Fund, Subadviser is hereby appointed as Adviser’s, the Corporation’s and the Fund’s agent and attorney-in-fact for the limited purpose of executing account documentation, agreements, contracts and other documents as Subadviser is requested by brokers, dealers, counterparties and other persons in connection with its management of the Investments; provided, however, that any such documentation that the Subadviser shall execute shall comply in all material respects with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to the business of the Corporation, including but not limited to the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.  Subadviser shall provide the Adviser and the Corporation with copies of any documents executed on behalf of the Corporation hereunder as soon as possible after the execution of any such documents.
