Example.
The Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in

the Growth 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. Although your

actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your

costs would be:

Portfolio Turnover.
The Growth 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 82.40% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies
Under normal market conditions, the Growth Fund invests primarily in common

stocks of domestic companies with large market capitalizations (a "large-cap

company"). Chase Investment Counsel Corporation (the "Advisor") generally

considers a large-cap company to be one that has a market capitalization of

$5 billion and above. Large-cap company stocks the Advisor purchases for the

Fund typically have earnings growth in excess of 10% per year on a historical

basis, and have demonstrated consistency of earnings growth over time. In

addition, the Fund may invest a portion of its assets in non-U.S. issuers

through the use of depositary receipts, such as American Depositary Receipts

("ADRs").



In buying and selling portfolio securities, the Advisor first screens companies

for 10% or greater earnings growth over the last 5 years, consistency of

earnings, and liquidity. The Advisor then screens the stocks for fundamental and

technical characteristics, including earnings growth, return on equity,

reinvestment rate, debt level, preliminary valuation analysis, relative

strength, price momentum, price volatility, unusual volume patterns, and insider

transactions. The Advisor then conducts traditional fundamental security

analysis to identify the most attractive buys for the Fund. The Advisor

continuously reviews prices and adjusts its targets in response to changes in

stock characteristics, setting buy/sell target prices for each stock. The

existence of alternative securities that the Advisor considers to be more

attractive is an added consideration in deciding whether to sell portfolio

securities.



The Advisor expects that the Fund's investment strategy may result in a

portfolio turnover rate in excess of 100% on an annual basis.
Principal Investment Risks
Losing a portion or all of your investment is a risk of investing in the Growth

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



o  Management Risk - The Growth Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective

   depends on the Advisor's ability to correctly identify economic trends and

   select stocks, particularly in volatile stock markets.



o  Market Risk - The value of stocks and other securities the Growth Fund holds or

   the overall stock market may decline over short or extended periods.



o  Non-U.S. Security Risk - The Growth Fund may invest in non-U.S. issuers through

   depositary receipts such as ADRs. Non-U.S. investments may involve financial,

   economic or political risks not ordinarily associated with the securities of

   U.S. issuers.



o  Portfolio Turnover Risk - A high portfolio turnover rate (100% or more) has the

   potential to result in the realization and distribution to shareholders of

   higher capital gains, which may subject you to a higher tax liability.



o  Defensive Position Risk- If the Growth Fund takes a temporary defensive

   position in response to adverse conditions, the Fund may not achieve its

   investment objective. For example, should the market advance during this

   period, the Fund may not participate as much as it would have if it had been

   more fully invested.



The Growth Fund is intended for investors who:



o  Have a long-term investment horizon;



o  Want to diversify their investment portfolio by investing in a mutual fund that

   invests in large-cap companies; and/or



o  Are willing to accept higher short-term risk in exchange for a higher potential

   for long-term total return.

Performance shown prior to the inception of the Institutional Class reflects the performance of Class N and includes expenses that are not applicable to and are higher than those of the Institutional Class. After-tax returns are shown only for Class N; after-tax returns for the Institutional Class will vary.
After-tax returns are 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 your tax situation and may differ from

those shown. Furthermore, the after-tax returns are not relevant to those who

hold their shares 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.
