The Teberg Fund
Notes to Schedule of Investments
June 30, 2011 (Unaudited)

Note 1 – Securities Valuation

The Teberg Fund’s (the “Fund”) investments in securities are carried at their fair value. Securities that are primarily traded on a national securities exchange shall be valued at the last sales price on the exchange on which they are primarily traded on the day of valuation or, if there has been no sale price on such day, at the mean between the bid and asked prices. Securities primarily traded in the NASDAQ Global Market System for which market quotations are readily available shall be valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). If the NOCP is not available, such securities shall be valued at the last sale price on the day of valuation, or if there has been no sale on such day, at the mean between the bid and asked prices.  Over-the-counter securities which are not traded in the NASDAQ Global Market System shall be valued at the most recent sales price.  Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at their net asset value per share (“NAV”).  Most underlying fund securities are valued primarily on the basis of current market quotations or on the basis of information furnished by a pricing service.  To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
 
Short-term securities having a maturity of 60 days or less are valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value.  To the extent the inputs are observable and timely, these securities would be classified in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or if the closing price does not represent fair value, are valued following procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. These procedures consider many factors, including the type of security, size of holding, trading volume and news events. When the Fund is unable to receive an NAV from an underlying fund, shares of the underlying fund will be valued at its fair market value as determined in good faith by the Advisor and the Trust’s Valuation Committee. Fair valuation may also be used for securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale, securities for which no or limited trading activity has occurred for a period of time, or securities that are otherwise deemed to be illiquid.  Depending on the relative significance of the valuation inputs, these securities may be classified in either level 2 or level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Fund has adopted authoritative fair value accounting standards which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring fair value.  These standards require additional disclosures about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value, a discussion in changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period and expanded disclosure of valuation levels for majority security types.  These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

·  
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.
·  
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.  These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
·  
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.  The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Fund’s securities as of June 30, 2011:

Refer to the Fund’s Schedule of Investments for a detailed break-out of securities.  Transfers between levels are recognized at June 30, 2011, the end of the reporting period.  The Fund recognized no significant transfers to/from Level 1 or Level 2.  There were no Level 3 securities held in the Fund during the quarter ended June 30, 2011.
