[1] Huber Capital Management, LLC (the "Adviser") has contractually agreed to waive all or a portion of its management fees and pay expenses of the Equity Income Fund to ensure that Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses ("AFFE"), interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed 1.75% of the average daily net assets of the Investor Class and 1.35% of the average daily net assets of the Institutional Class (the "Expense Caps"). The Expense Caps will remain in effect through at least April 1, 2017, and may be terminated only by the Trust's 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.

[2] The Small Cap Value Fund's "Distribution and Service ("Rule 12b-1") Fees" may accrue up to 0.25% of average daily net assets and the Small Cap Value Fund's "Shareholder Servicing Plan Fee" may accrue up to 0.15% of average daily net assets of the Institutional Class shares; however, the accrual of each fee is currently set at 0.00% through at least April 1, 2017, and any accrual increase must first be approved by the Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board")..
