[1] The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive a portion or all of its management fees and pay Fund expenses (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses) in order to limit the Net Annual Fund Operating Expenses to 1.25% and 1.00% of average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A shares and Institutional Class shares, respectively (the "Expense Caps"). The Expense Caps will remain in effect through at least January 28, 2013, and may be terminated only by the Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board"). The Adviser may request recoupment of previously waived fees and paid expenses from the Fund for three years from the date they were waived or paid, subject to the Expense Caps.
Example.
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in

the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes

that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then

redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes

that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating

expenses remain the same (taking into account the Expense Caps only in the first

year).
Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Portfolio Turnover.
The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells

securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover

rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes

when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not

reflected in Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example, affect the

Fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio

turnover rate was 22.48% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategy
The Fund seeks to deliver superior, risk-adjusted returns over full market

cycles, by investing primarily in the common stocks of underappreciated

companies and industries. A full market cycle is deemed to be a multi-year

period including a period of material increase in the U.S. stock market (a "bull

market") and a period of material decline in the U.S. stock market (a "bear

market"). The Fund will generally focus on 25 to 35 companies (i) with an

investment grade debt rating, (ii) with a history of paying common stock

dividends, and (iii) with a market capitalization among the top 1,000 companies

in the United States.



The Fund is managed using a long-term approach to security selection. Investments

will generally be made with an intended investment horizon of three years,

although individual investments may be held for shorter or longer time periods.



The Adviser evaluates investment opportunities using bottom up, fundamental

analysis, paying particular attention to the following factors:



1.  Expected future profits;



2.  Expected sustainable revenue and/or asset growth;



3.  Expected cash investment needed to support expected growth;



4.  Normalized free cash flow after considering Items 1 through 3 above; and



5.  Valuation relative to normalized earnings and free cash flow after giving

    consideration to growth potential and financial strength.



The Fund may also invest up to 25% of its net assets in government and corporate

debt securities of any maturity. Of this 25%, no more than 10% will be invested

in investment grade corporate debt and no more than 5% will be invested in

non-investment grade (i.e., "junk" bonds) corporate debt. The Fund also may

invest up to 15% of its net assets in foreign equity securities. Additionally,

up to 15% of the Fund's net assets may be invested in a combination of

convertible securities, options, warrants and rights and other investment

companies. The Fund may invest up to 100% of its net assets in cash,

cash-equivalents and high-quality, short-term debt securities and money market

instruments for temporary defensive purposes.



The decision to sell securities is driven by the Adviser's evaluation of

prospective total returns relative to the perceived risk of the security in

question. A security may be sold when its estimated future return is low in an

absolute sense or in order to fund the purchase of a new investment which offers

a better risk/reward profile. The Fund is managed in a tax sensitive manner and

securities may be sold to generate tax losses in order to minimize realized

taxable gains.
Principal Investment Risks
Losing all or a portion of your investment is a risk of investing in the Fund.

The following additional risks could affect the value of your investment:



·  Management Risk - If the Adviser's investment strategies do not produce the

   expected results, the value of the Fund could decrease.



·  Market Risk - If the stock market as a whole, or the value of an individual

   company, goes down, the result could be a decrease in the value of the Fund.



·  Value-Style Investing Risk - Value stocks can perform differently from the

   market as a whole and from other types of stocks. Value stocks may be

   purchased based upon the belief that a given security may be out of favor;

   that belief may be misplaced or the security may stay out of favor for an

   extended period of time.



·  Debt Securities Risk - Debt securities, such as notes and bonds, are subject

   to credit risk and interest rate risk. Credit risk is the possibility that an

   issuer of an instrument will be unable to make interest payments or repay

   principal when due. Changes in the financial strength of an issuer or changes

   in the credit rating of a security may affect its value. Interest rate risk is

   the risk that interest rates may increase, which tends to reduce the resale

   value of certain debt securities, including U.S. Government obligations.



·  Medium-Sized Companies Risk - Investing in securities of medium-sized

   companies may involve greater risk than investing in larger, more established

   companies because they can be subject to greater share price volatility than

   larger, more established companies.



·  Foreign Securities Risk - Foreign securities can be more volatile than

   domestic (U.S.) securities. Securities markets of other countries are

   generally smaller than U.S. securities markets. Many foreign securities may

   also be less liquid than U.S. securities, which could affect the Fund's

   investments.



The Fund may be appropriate for investors who:



•  are pursuing long-term growth of capital;



•  want to add an investment with appreciation potential to diversify their

   investment portfolio; and



•  can accept the greater risks of investing in a portfolio with significant

   common stock holdings.

The after-tax returns were calculated using the historical highest individual

federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and

local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor's tax situation and

may differ from those shown, and after-tax returns are not relevant to investors

who hold shares of the Fund through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k)

plans or individual retirement accounts ("IRAs").



The Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares is higher than

other return figures when a capital loss occurs upon the redemption of Fund

shares.
