Message to Our Shareholders
 
Twelve month performance attribution ending October 31, 2011 for the ActivePassive Funds was as follows:
 
The ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund underperformed its Russell 1000 Growth Index by 1.91% for the 12-month period ending October 31, 2011, 8.01% versus 9.92%.  Both the passive component (Vanguard Growth ETF) and the active component (managed by Transamerica Investment Management, LLC until April 1, 2011 and as of June 1, 2011 by TCW Investment Management Company) trailed the benchmark slightly.  The managers underweight in the strong-performing Consumer Staples sector caused the underperformance of the active component.
 
The ActivePassive Large Cap Value Fund slightly underperformed its Russell 1000 Value Index by 0.52% for the 12-month period ending October 31, 2011, 5.64% versus 6.16%.  While the passive component (Vanguard Value ETF) trailed the benchmark slightly, the active component (managed by C.S. McKee, L.P.) outperformed it slightly.  The managers underweight in the worst-performing Financials sector caused the outperformance of the active component.
 
The ActivePassive Small/Mid Fund underperformed its Russell 2500 Index by 1.66% for the 12-month period ending October 31, 2011, 9.63% versus 7.97%.  The passive components (iShares Small-Cap Growth ETF, iShares Small-Cap Value ETF, iShares Mid-Cap Growth ETF and iShares Mid-Cap Value ETF) trailed the benchmark while the active component (managed by Eagle Asset Management, Inc.) beat it by a wide margin.  Strong performance of its Consumer Discretionary and Health Care holdings caused the significant outperformance of the active component.
 
The ActivePassive International Equity Fund slightly outperformed the MSCI EAFE Index by .41% for the 12-month period ending October 31, 2011, -3.67% versus -4.08%.  The passive component trailed the benchmark while the active component (managed by Invesco Advisers, Inc.) beat it by a wide margin.  Significant underweight in the struggling Financials sector caused the outperformance of the active component.
 
The ActivePassive Taxable Bond Fund underperformed the Barclay’s Capital Aggregate Bond Index by 1.85% for the 12-month period ending October 31, 2011, 3.15% versus 5.00%.  Both the passive component (Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF) and the active component (managed by Sage Advisory Services Ltd. Co.) trailed the benchmark.  Little exposure to long-term bonds caused the underperformance of the active component.
 
The ActivePassive Municipal Bond Fund slightly underperformed its Barclay’s Capital Municipal Bond Index by .69% for the 12-month period ending October 31, 2011, 3.09% versus 3.78%.  The passive component (iShares S&P National Municipal Bond Fund ETF and SPDR Nuveen Barclays Capital Municipal Bond ETF) trailed the benchmark while the active component (managed by

Gannett, Welsh & Kotler, LLC) essentially matched the benchmark performance for the period.
 
The ActivePassive Global Bond Fund underperformed the BofA Merrill Lynch Global Broad Market Index by 2.34% for the 12-month period ending October 31, 2011, 1.78% versus 4.12%.  Both the passive component (SPDR Barclays Capital International Treasury Bond ETF and Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF) and the active component (Loomis Sayles Global Bond Fund and Oppenheimer International Bond Fund) trailed the benchmark.  Underweight in dollar denominated bonds caused the underperformance of the active component of the portfolio.
 
During 2011, our allocations to active and passive has shifted during the period. In general, we increased our allocation to passive in most funds due to the high correlation market environment.  Active managers have shown a tendency to underperform in periods of high correlation.  The exception to this strategy is within the Municipal Bond and Global Bond categories as based on current market inefficiencies.
 
In broad terms, global and domestic markets experienced massive volatility while still experiencing modest gains over the last 12 months.  The period can most aptly be described as a broad “de-risking” by many market participants due to a number of issues.  European sovereign debt concerns escalated throughout the quarter, expanding beyond the borders of Greece to include Italy and Spain.  In the U.S., investors dealt with stalled debates over debt ceiling adjustments and the eventual downgrade of U.S. debt by Standard & Poor’s.  Investors in both Europe and the U.S. grew increasingly concerned over the political stalemates impacting decision-making in both regions.
 
For the U.S. equity markets, the third quarter brought a sharp reversal in the upward trend felt through the first half of the year.  Many investors became increasingly nervous about the impending debt ceiling deadline of August 2nd, and what it would mean to the global financial markets if the U.S. defaulted on its debt obligations.  Despite an agreement reached by both political parties to raise the debt ceiling and reduce the budget deficit, ratings agency Standard & Poor’s downgraded U.S. debt from AAA to AA+, sending the equity markets into free-fall.  U.S. equity markets were further pressured by growing concerns of a potential global financial crisis resulting from sovereign debt defaults within Europe.  Not surprisingly, the more defensive sectors, such as consumer staples and utilities, tended to outperform the more economically-sensitive sectors.  Similarly, large-cap stocks, in general, held up much better to the selling pressure compared to most small-cap names.
 
Broadly speaking, international equity markets continued to be plagued by sovereign debt woes.  Similar to the U.S., investor concerns over political instability leading to defaults and a subsequent banking sector crisis led to recent downward pressure on most equities.  The European Central Bank demonstrated its willingness to provide support where necessary by purchasing Italian and Spanish bonds in an effort to keep borrowing costs low for those two countries.  Investor atten-

tion continues to center on Europe and whether the political leaders of the European Union will have the political ability to collectively provide enough capital to weather the current turmoil.  Emerging market equities, in broad terms, likewise were impacted by the troubles within the developed markets, in addition to investor worries regarding global economic growth prospects.
 
In general, U.S. fixed income markets were beneficiaries of global “de-risking” as well as stimulus measures enacted by the U.S. Federal Reserve.  Many global investors sought the relative safety of U.S. Treasuries amid increased market volatility and economic uncertainty, despite the recent debt downgrade and low interest rates offered by U.S. Treasuries.  Long-duration Treasuries received further support in September after the Federal Reserve announced its plan to purchase long-dated Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities, in a move dubbed “Operation Twist”.  The Fed’s goal through this latest round of bond buying is to decrease long-duration bond yields in an effort to increase lending and borrowing activity by businesses, banks and consumers.
 
The market outlook over the near-term appears to be a continuation of the broad themes that have characterized the year so far; headline risk, volatility, political instability and the risk trade.  Questions surrounding the European sovereign debt crisis should continue to drive market sentiment as investors analyze the potential effectiveness of proposed remedies.  Currently, many analysts foresee the need for the Eurozone members to provide massive funding to the European Financial Stability Fund in order to backstop the sovereign debt of its weaker members.  However, many investors question whether Europe has the political will to fund such a move.
 
The troubles within Europe have many investors concerned about a potential repeat of the events following Lehman Brother’s bankruptcy, which has increased many investors’ focus on risk.  In addition, concerns over the U.S. economy and the recent downgrade of its debt rating, as well as newly surfacing doubts over the growth potential for many emerging economies, also have spooked many investors and turned them away from risky assets.  The markets have seen a prolonged period of “risk-on/risk-off” trades that have led to wide swings in prices across many asset classes.  Many analysts claim that the market is currently ignoring attractively valued investments due to investors’ heightened risk aversion, while others believe that the upside potential is not commensurate with the downside risk.  Whatever path the markets take going forward, it is likely to be a bumpy ride for investors.
 
As always, we appreciate your trust in us and remain committed to providing high quality investment strategies for the long term.
 
Sincerely,
 
Timothy J. Clift
Portfolio Manager, ActivePassive Funds

Fund holdings and sector allocations are subject to change and should not be considered a recommendation to buy or sell any security.  For a complete list of fund holdings, please refer to the Schedule of Investments provided in this report.  Current and future portfolio holdings are subject to risk.
 
Must be preceded or accompanied by a prospectus.
 
Mutual fund investing involves risk.  Principal loss is possible.  The fund are non-diversified, meaning that they may concentrate their assets in fewer individual holdings than a diversified fund.  Therefore the fund is more exposed to individual stock volatility than a diversified fund.  Investments in smaller companies involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility.  Investments in foreign securities involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and difference in accounting methods.  These risks can be significantly greater for investments in emerging markets.  Investments in debt securities typically decrease in value when interest rates rise.  This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities.  Investments in lower-rated and non-rated securities present greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher-rated securities.  Income from tax exempt funds may be subject to state and local taxes and a portion of income may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax for certain investors.  Federal income tax rules will apply to any capital gains distributions.  Investments in mortgage-backed securities may involve additional risks, such as credit risk, prepayment risk, possible illiquidity and default, and susceptibility to adverse economic developments.  The funds will bear its share of the fees and expenses of the underlying funds.  Shareholders will pay higher expenses than would be the case if making direct investments in the underlying ETFs.  Because the funds invests in ETFs, they are subject to additional risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including the risks that the market price of an ETF’s shares may trade at a discount to its net asset value (“NAV”), an active secondary trading market may not develop or be maintained, or trading may be halted by the exchange in which they trade, which may impact a fund’s ability to sell its shares.  Investments in REIT securities involve risks such as declines in the value of real estate and increased susceptibility to adverse economic or regulatory developments.
 
The S&P 500 Index is a broad based unmanaged index of 500 stocks, which is widely recognized as representative of the equity market in general.  The Russell 1000 Growth Index measures the performance of the large-cap growth segment of the U.S. equity universe.  It includes those Russell 1000 companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values.  The Russell 1000 Value Index measures the performance of the large-cap value segment of the U.S. equity universe.  It includes those Russell 1000 companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower expected growth values.  The Russell 2500 Index measures the performance of the small to mid-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe.
 
The MSCI EAFE Index is a free float adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure developed market equity performance of 21 developed markets outside North America.  The Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond Index is a market-capitalization weighted index of investment- grade fixed-rate debt issues, including government, corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities, with maturities of at least one year.  The Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index serves as a benchmark for long-term, investment-grade, tax-exempt municipal bond funds.  The BofA Merrill Lynch Global Broad Market Index tracks the performance of investment grade debt publicly issued in the major domestic and Eurobond markets, including sovereign, quasi-government, corporate, securitized and collateralized securities.  The BofA Merrill Lynch Broad Market Index tracks the performance of investment grade public debt issued in the major domestic and eurobonds market.  One cannot invest directly in an index.
 
Correlation is a statistical measure of how two securities move in relation to each other.  Duration is a commonly used measure of the potential volatility of the price of a debt security, or the aggregate market value of a portfolio of debt securities, prior to maturity.  Securities with a longer duration generally have more volatile prices than securities of comparable quality with a shorter duration.

EXPENSE EXAMPLE (Unaudited)
October 31, 2011

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs including exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1); and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
 
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period indicated and held for the entire period from May 1, 2011 to October 31, 2011.
 
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the row entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.  There are some account fees that are charged to certain types of accounts, such as Individual Retirement Accounts (generally, a $15 fee is charged to the account annually) that would increase the amount of expenses paid on your account.  To the extent the Fund invests in shares of other investment companies as part of its investment strategy, you will indirectly bear your proportionate share of any fees and expenses charged by the underlying funds in which the fund invests in addition to the expenses of the fund.  The example below does not include portfolio trading commissions and related expenses and other extraordinary expenses as determined under generally accepted accounting principles.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the information under the

EXPENSE EXAMPLE (Unaudited) (Continued)

heading “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October 31, 2011
 
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION
 
The ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund, ActivePassive Large Cap Value Fund, ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Fund, ActivePassive International Equity Fund, ActivePassive Global Bond Fund, ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund and ActivePassive Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”) are each non-diversified series of Advisors Series Trust (the “Trust”), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end management investment company.  The investment objective of the Funds, except for the ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund, ActivePassive Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund and ActivePassive Global Bond Fund, is long term capital appreciation.  The investment objective of the ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund, ActivePassive Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund and ActivePassive Global Bond Fund is income and capital appreciation.  The Funds are advised by FundQuest Incorporated.  The ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund was sub-advised by Transamerica Investment, LLC with their agreement ending March 31, 2011.  Effective June 1, 2011, the ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund is sub-advised by TCW Investment Management Company.  The ActivePassive Large Cap Value Fund is sub-advised by C.S. McKee.  The ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Fund is sub-advised by Eagle Asset Management, Inc.  The ActivePassive International Equity Fund is sub-advised by Invesco AIM Advisors, Inc.  The ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund is sub-advised by Sage Advisory Services Ltd.  The ActivePassive Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund is sub-advised by Gannett, Welsh & Kotler, LLC.  The Funds are subject to a maximum sales load of 5.75%, which decreases depending on the amount invested.  The Funds began operations on December 31, 2007.
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
 
A.
Security Valuation: All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value, as described in note 3.
 
 
B.
Federal Income Taxes:  It is the Funds’ policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
 

 

 
65

 
ActivePassive Funds
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
October 31, 2011

The Funds recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities.  Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years 2008 – 2010, or expected to be taken in the Funds’ 2011 tax returns.  The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and the state of Delaware.
 
 
C.
Security Transactions, Income and Distributions: Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.  Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis.  Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.  Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.  Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized over the life of the respective security.  The ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund, ActivePassive Large Cap Value Fund, ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Fund and ActivePassive International Equity Fund will make distributions of dividends and capital gains, if any, at least annually, typically in December.  The Funds may make any additional payment of dividends or distributions if they deem it desirable at any other time during the year.  The ActivePassive Global Bond Fund, the ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund and the ActivePassive Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund distribute substantially all of their net investment income monthly and substantially all of their capital gains annually.  The amount of dividends and distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized capital gains is determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  To extent these book/tax differences are permanent, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their Federal tax treatment.
 
 
D.
Reclassification of Capital Accounts:  Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting.  These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.  For the year ended October 31, 2011, the following table shows the reclassifications made:

The permanent differences primarily relate to net operating losses and paydown adjustments with differing book and tax methods for accounting.
 
 
E.
Use of Estimates:  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
 
F.
Redemption Fees:  The International Equity Fund and the Global Bond Fund each charge a 1% redemption fee to shareholders who redeem shares held for 5 days or less.  Such fees are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital.
 
 
G.
REITs:  The Funds can make certain investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) which pay dividends to their shareholders based upon funds available from operations.  It is quite common for these dividends to exceed the REITs’ taxable earnings and profits resulting in the excess portion of such dividends being designated as a return of capital.  Each Fund intends to include the gross dividends from such REITs in its annual distributions to its shareholders and, accordingly, a portion of the Fund’s distributions may also be designated as a return of capital.
 
 
H.
Foreign Risk:  Investments in foreign securities entail certain risks.  There may be a possibility of nationalization or expropriation of assets, confiscatory taxation, political or financial instability, and diplomatic developments that could affect the value of the Funds’ investments in certain foreign countries.  Since foreign securities normally are denominated and traded in foreign currencies, the value of the Funds’ assets may be affected favorably or unfavorably by currency exchange rates, currency

exchange control regulations, foreign withholding taxes, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies.  There may be less information publicly available about a foreign issuer than about a U.S. issuer, and foreign issuers are not generally subject to accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards and practices comparable to those in the United States.  The securities of some foreign issuers are less liquid and at times more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.
 
In addition to securities traded principally in securities markets outside the United States and securities denominated in foreign currencies, the Fund may invest in American Depository Receipts (ADRs).  ADRs generally are U.S. dollar-denominated receipts issued by domestic banks representing the deposit with the bank of securities of a foreign issuer, and are traded on exchanges or over-the-counter in the United States.  Because an ADR represents an indirect investment in securities of a foreign issuer, investments in ADRs are subject to the risks associated with foreign securities generally, as described above.
 
 
I.
Mutual Fund and ETF Trading Risk:  The Funds may invest in other mutual funds that are either open-end or closed-end investment companies as well as ETFs.  ETFs are investment companies that are bought and sold on a national securities exchange.  Unlike mutual funds, ETFs do not necessarily trade at the net asset values of their underlying securities, which means an ETF could potentially trade above or below the value of the underlying portfolios.  Additionally, because ETFs trade like stocks on exchanges, they are subject to trading and commission costs unlike mutual funds.  Also, both mutual funds and ETFs have management fees that are part of their costs, and the Funds will indirectly bear its proportionate share of these costs.
 
 
J.
Derivatives: The Funds have adopted the financial accounting reporting rules as required by the Derivatives and Hedging Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”).  The Funds are required to include enhanced disclosure that enables investors to understand how and why an entity uses derivatives, how derivatives are accounted for, and how derivatives instruments affect an entity’s results of operations and financial position.  During the year ended October 31, 2011, the Funds did not hold any derivative instruments.
 
 
K.
New Accounting Pronouncement:  In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2011-04 “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements”
 

 

 
68

 
ActivePassive Funds
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
October 31, 2011

in GAAP and the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”).  ASU No. 2011-04 amends FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, to establish common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with GAAP and IFRSs.  ASU No. 2011-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 and for interim periods within those fiscal years.  Management is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments and does not believe they will have a material impact on the Fund’s financial statements.
 
 
NOTE 3 – SECURITIES VALUATION
 
The Funds have 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 major 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 Funds’ 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.
 
 
Following is a description of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds’ major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
 
Equity Securities – Equity securities, including common stocks, preferred stocks, foreign issued common stocks, exchange-traded funds, closed end mutual funds and real estate investment trusts or “REITs”, which are primarily traded on a national securities exchange shall be valued at the last sale price on the

ActivePassive Funds
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
October 31, 2011

exchange on which they are primarily traded on the day of valuation or, if there has been no sale 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.  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.
 
Debt Securities – Debt securities, such as corporate bonds, asset backed securities, mortgage backed securities, municipal bonds, U.S. Treasuries and U.S. government agency issues are valued at market on the basis of valuations furnished by an independent pricing service which utilizes both dealer-supplied valuations and formula-based techniques.  The pricing service may consider recently executed transactions in securities of the issuer or comparable issuers, market price quotations (where observable), bond spreads, and fundamental data relating to the issuer.  In addition, the model may incorporate market observable data such as reported sales of similar securities, broker quotes, yields, bids, offers, and reference data.  Certain securities are valued principally using dealer quotations.  These securities will generally be classified in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
Open-End Mutual Funds – Investments in open-end mutual funds are generally priced at the ending net asset value (NAV) provided by the service agent of the Funds and will be classified as level 1 securities.
 
Short-Term Securities – Short-term securities having a maturity of less than 60 days are valued at 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.  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 inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The Advisor is permitted to be reimbursed only for fee reductions and expense payments made in the previous three fiscal years.  Any such reimbursement is also contingent upon Board of Trustees review and approval at the time the reimbursement is made.

ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund
APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY
AGREEMENT
(Unaudited)

At a meeting held on May 31-June 2, 2011, the Board of Trustees of Advisors Series Trust, including the persons who are Independent Trustees as defined under the Investment Company Act, considered and approved an initial sub-advisory agreement for the ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund (the “Fund”) for a period not to exceed two years.  Prior to this meeting, the Board received and reviewed substantial information regarding the Fund, the sub-advisor and the services expected to be provided by the sub-advisor to the Fund under the sub-advisory agreement.  This information formed the primary (but not exclusive) basis for the Board’s determinations.  Below is a summary of the factors considered by the Board and the conclusions that formed the basis for the Board’s approval of the initial sub-advisory agreement:
 
TCW Investment Management Company
 
The Board noted that Transamerica Investment Management, LLC (“TIM”), the previous sub-adviser to the Fund, had terminated the sub-advisory agreement between itself and FundQuest Incorporated, Advisor to the Fund.  The Board further noted that FundQuest had selected TCW Investment Management Co. (“TCW”) to replace TIM as sub-adviser to the Fund, effective June 1, 2011, requiring approval by the Board of the Sub-advisory Agreement, and that the terms and conditions of the Sub-advisory Agreement with TCW were generally similar in all material respects to the terms and conditions of the previous sub-advisory agreement with TIM, which the Board last reviewed and approved at its Board meeting held on December 8-9, 2010.  The Board also noted that the fees payable to TCW under its Sub-advisory Agreement, though different than had been the case with TIM, do not result in an increase in the Fund’s advisory fee levels previously approved by the Fund’s initial shareholders.
 
The Board then considered the overall fairness of the Sub-advisory Agreement and whether the agreement was in the best interest of the Fund.  The Board further considered factors it deemed relevant with respect to the Fund, including, as applicable: (1) the nature, quality and extent of the services provided or to be provided by the sub-adviser to the Fund; (2) the investment  performance of the Fund and its sub-adviser; (3) the costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the sub-adviser and its affiliates from the sub-adviser’s relationship with the Fund; (4) the extent to which economies of scale will be realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors; and (5) comparative services rendered and comparative advisory and sub-advisory fee rates.  In addition to the foregoing factors, the Board also discussed whether there were other benefits received by the Advisor,
 

 

 
86

 
ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund
APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY
AGREEMENT (Continued)
(Unaudited)

the sub-adviser, or their affiliates, from the sub-adviser’s relationship with the Fund.  The Board concluded that any fall-out benefits resulting from the engagement of the sub-adviser were such that they did not impact the Board’s conclusion that the proposed sub-advisory fees were reasonable.
The Board noted that TCW’s fees would continue to be paid entirely by the Advisor so that no additional expenses would be borne by shareholders for the engagement of TCW.  The Board considered the scope and quality of services to be provided by the sub-adviser, including the fact that the sub-adviser pays the costs of all necessary investment and management facilities necessary for the efficient conduct of its services.  The Board also considered the qualifications and experience of the portfolio managers responsible for managing the sub-advisor’s portion of the Fund.  The Board further considered comparative fees and performance data of other comparable portfolios managed by the sub-adviser.  Based on these considerations, the Board was satisfied, with respect to TCW and the Fund that (1) the Fund was reasonably likely to benefit from the nature, quality and extent of the sub-adviser’s services and (2) the sub-adviser’s compensation is fair and reasonable.
 
In considering the Sub-advisory Agreement, no single factor was determinative of the Board’s decision to approve the Sub-advisory Agreement; rather, the Board based their determination on the total mix of information available to them.  Based on a consideration of all the factors in their totality, the Trustees determined that the sub-advisory arrangement with TCW, including sub-advisory fees, were fair and reasonable to the Fund.  The Board therefore determined that the approval of the Sub-advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.

The registrant’s Board of Trustees has determined that there is at least one audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee.  Ms. Sallie P. Diederich is the “audit committee financial expert” and is considered to be “independent” as each term is defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR.

Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

The registrant has engaged its principal accountant to perform audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services during the past two fiscal years.  “Audit services” refer to performing an audit of the registrant's annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years.  “Audit-related services” refer to the assurance and related services by the principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit.  “Tax services” refer to professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning.  There were no “other services” provided by the principal accountant.  The following table details the aggregate fees billed or expected to be billed for each of the last two fiscal years for audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees and other fees by the principal accountant.

The audit committee has adopted pre-approval policies and procedures that require the audit committee to pre-approve all audit and non-audit services of the registrant, including services provided to any entity affiliated with the registrant.

The percentage of fees billed by Tait, Weller, & Baker LLP applicable to non-audit services pursuant to waiver of pre-approval requirement were as follows:

All of the principal accountant’s hours spent on auditing the registrant’s financial statements were attributed to work performed by full-time permanent employees of the principal accountant.

The following table indicates the non-audit fees billed or expected to be billed by the registrant’s accountant for services to the registrant and to the registrant’s investment adviser (and any other controlling entity, etc.—not sub-adviser) for the last two years.  The audit committee of the Board of Trustees has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant's investment adviser is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence and has concluded that the provision of such non-audit services by the accountant has not compromised the accountant’s independence.
