[1] The Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses for the Fund do not correlate to the Ratio of Expenses to Average Net Assets Before Fee Waivers in the Financial Highlights, which reflects the operating expenses of the Fund and does not include AFFE. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, the Fund incurred AFFE totaling 0.01% or less of the Fund's average daily net assets; these AFFE are included in "Other Expenses" above.
[2] The Advisor has contractually agreed to waive all or a portion of its management fees and pay Fund expenses for the Dividend Value Fund to ensure that Net Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding AFFE, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed 1.98% of the average daily net assets of the Investor Class and 1.73% of the average daily net assets of the Advisor Class (the "Expense Caps"). The Expense Caps will remain in effect through at least April 30, 2013, and may be terminated only by the Board. The Advisor 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 37.24% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies of the Fund
Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets
in equity securities, and it primarily invests in equity securities that pay
or are expected to pay dividends. The Fund may invest in companies of any size,
from larger, well-established companies to smaller companies.

The Advisor selects dividend-paying equity securities consisting of common
stocks and securities having the characteristics of common stocks, such as
preferred stocks, convertible securities, rights and warrants, on the basis
of fundamental corporate analysis. The Fund may also invest in foreign
securities, provided that they are publicly traded in the United States,
including in ADRs. The Advisor screens a universe of more than 6,000 stocks
in order to identify those with low price-to-earnings ratios, price-to-book
values, and price-to-revenues ratios relative to their historical norms,
their industry peers or the overall market. The Fund's portfolio seeks broad
diversification via exposure to a significant number of major market sectors
and industry groups.

The Advisor may sell positions as they reach or approach their target price,
if a lower target price results from a reassessment of earnings or valuation
multiples, or if a more attractive stock is identified.
Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund
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 - The Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective      
   depends on the ability of the Advisor to correctly identify economic trends   
   and select stocks, particularly in volatile stock markets.                    

·  Market Risk - The value of stocks and other securities the Fund holds or the  
   overall stock market may decline over short or extended periods.              

·  Small- and Medium-Sized Companies Risk - Small- and medium-sized companies
   may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than stocks
   of larger companies. These stocks present greater risks than securities of       
   larger, more diversified companies.                                           

·  Equity Risk - The equity securities held in the Fund's portfolio may          
   experience sudden, unpredictable drops in value or long periods of decline
   in value. This may occur because of factors that affect securities markets       
   generally or factors affecting specific industries, sectors or companies in   
   which the Fund invests.                                                       

·  Value Style Investing Risk - The Advisor follows an investing style that      
   favors value investments. The value investing style may over time go in and   
   out of favor. At times when the value investing style is out of favor, the    
   Fund may underperform other funds that use different investing styles.        

·  Foreign Securities Risk - The Fund may also invest in foreign securities which
   are subject to special risks. 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 be
   less liquid and more volatile than U.S. securities, which could affect the    
   Fund's investments.                                                           

If you are looking for current income or short-term market gain, you should not
invest in the Fund as it is designed for long-term investing.

Performance shown prior to the inception of the Advisor Class reflects the performance of the Investor Class and includes expenses that are not applicable to and are higher than those of the Advisor Class.
The 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 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 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.
