Economic Review and Market Environment

Although economic conditions remain characterized by weakness, with considerable slack in production capacity and a still-growing jobless rate, the capital markets have charted a different trajectory thus far in 2009. As one assesses the year-to-date returns of stocks and bonds, it is hard to believe it was only a year ago that financial markets seemed at the brink of ruin, after Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were nationalized, Lehman Brothers was bankrupted and the entirety of the banking system became a ward of the state. Certainly, at the time, the markets did reflect the crisis at hand with soaring risk and liquidity premiums that sent equities and high yield bonds tumbling 40% in price over several weeks last fall, further pummeled mortgage securities, and victimized the credit ratings of AAA issuers GE and Berkshire Hathaway.

Enter the massive government involvement since September 2008 and the rehabilitative effect of time, and the result has been an equity market that has gained 19% year-to-date (and 34% since March month-end), and very strong performance across the spread sectors of the fixed income market. High yield corporate bonds are up 50% year-to-date, while investment grade corporate issues have advanced more than 17%. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities, benefitting from innovative liquidity-enhancing Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility (TALF) and Public-Private Investment Partnership (PPIP) programs implemented this year, have also repriced sharply higher, particularly over the past few months as the programs have ramped up. Commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) have rallied as well, posting a 13% return in the third quarter, lifting the year-to-date performance to nearly 25%.

The buoyancy of the capital markets is brought into sharp relief with the flagging economic indicators that continue to suggest a nascent recovery, at best. Unemployment, at last measure, climbed to the doorstep of 10%, as non-farm payrolls shrank for the 21st consecutive month. (Yes, it is a lagging indicator, but it is still rising.) Capacity utilization hovered near all-time lows, even as production picked up pace to replenish whittled-down inventories. Even where activity was evident and suggestive of an upturn, it did not take too much digging to uncover an artificial stimulant in the form of “Cash for Clunkers”, serving to pull demand forward, or the homebuyer credit, which doesn’t address financing difficulty, especially in the jumbo mortgage market, where employment weakness has led to new foreclosures.

The Economy and Market Ahead

Current positioning across the Funds is informed by recognition of the vigorous return environment that has moderated some of the most severe dislocations that were evident at the peak of the crisis in late 2008. Duration remains established near to slightly short the designated indexes, while the steep US Treasury curve has yield curve positioning emphasizing intermediate maturities. Despite the good third quarter, six-month and year-to-date returns, valuations across the spread sectors remain generally discounted to historical levels, leading to an underweight to US Treasury issues. Corporate emphasis on financial issuers has persisted, as the expectation for an extended period of curve steepness should promote balance sheet remediation and a fall in the risk premium on the debt of banks and insurers.

Improved stability in the housing market should provide support to holdings of non-Agency residential mortgage-backed securities, particularly in what remain deeply discounted structures comprised of subprime and Alt-A collateral. The Funds, High Yield excepted, also maintain an overweight to senior-tranche CMBS with 30%-plus credit enhancement as a buffer to any possible market weakness. With the government’s purchase program of Agency mortgages set to expire early next year, some easing in price is anticipated, leading to a modest reduction in exposure. In market areas where pricing has largely come into closer alignment with fair value, such as prime collateral residential mortgage-backed securities and high yield corporate issues, MetWest has modestly pared exposure given the potential for a pickup in volatility due to employment and profit uncertainty over the near-term.

Data sources for the discussion above include Bloomberg, Barclays, and Merrill Lynch.

 

 

Semi-Annual Report September 2009 / 1


Fund Results

General Performance Commentary

In our March 31, 2009 Annual Report, we referred to the performance challenges visited upon the Funds as a result of the difficult economic environment and the effect of massive withdrawal of investor sponsorship in many areas of the capital markets. However, we struck an optimistic note, suggesting that the technical conditions of supply and demand were more responsible for the discounts imposed on securities than the fundamentals which, admittedly, had substantially weakened. As a result, we held that the deterioration in prices in late 2008 and early 2009 reflected more the imposition of a steep crisis premium and thus was likely for some reversal, the speed of which we possessed little certainty, though we maintained a reasonably high degree of confidence in a turnaround.

Suffice to say – as indicated by the performance indicated in the pages ahead – the move toward a more normal capital market environment in the capital markets has sent prices sharply higher in the past six months. The equity market and the spread sectors of the fixed income market, in particular, have been beneficiaries of the recovery. Illustrative of the greatly improved sentiment is the S&P 500 is up 34% since March 2009 month-end and the high yield market has advanced 40% in the same period. Contrasted with a broad US Treasury market decline of 1% over the past six months (and year-to-date fall of 2.4%) and, clearly, the panic and risk aversion that was evident late last year has given way to an appetite for something other than the low yields prevailing in US Treasury securities.

Across the Funds generally, an underweight exposure to the relative underperformance of the US Treasury market has proved additive to returns versus the comparative indexes over the last six months. Most significantly, an emphasis in corporate issues and non-Agency RMBS has driven the premium returns of the past two quarters, with nearly all of the Funds enjoying several hundred basis points of outperformance. Only the High Yield Fund, due to a higher quality focus in its construction, lagged over the reporting period, though year-over-year the Fund was well-served by its more cautious approach, outpacing the index, in both share classes, by more than 170 basis points.

The performance data quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. The returns shown do not take into account taxes on fund distributions or redemption of fund shares. Current performance may be lower or higher. Performance data current to the most recent month-end may be obtained at www.mwamllc.com. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an unmanaged index assumes no transaction costs, taxes, management fees or other expenses. A direct investment in an index is not possible.

The net expense ratio reflects a contractual agreement by the Adviser to reduce its fees and/or absorb expenses to limit the Fund’s total annual operating expenses until March 31, 2011. Without fee waivers, returns would have been lower. For additional expense ratio information, please refer to the Financial Highlights section of the report.

A Consistent Long-Term Value Orientation

The improvement in capital market conditions over the past six months, though not altogether surprising to our investment management team, underscores the never-ending cyclicality of investing and investor sentiment. While a year ago, the lament was that capitalism as we knew it was unlikely to ever be the same again; today, against the backdrop of buoyant market results, comes forecasts for robust near-term economic recovery and perhaps even an impending revival of consumer inflation. Through these cycles, and especially so when at the extremes, MetWest remains committed to its value-oriented philosophy and long-term perspective, as painful as that has been over the past 12 months. The investment team continues to target consistent outperformance of the Funds’ benchmarks over normal market cycles by diversifying the sources of value-added in the portfolios. Those value-added strategies include: (1) duration management, (2) yield curve positioning, (3) sector allocation, (4) security selection, and (5) opportunistic execution.

Again, we thank you for your continued support of the Metropolitan West Funds and look forward to the ongoing opportunity to meet your investment objectives.

Sincerely,

Metropolitan West Funds

U.S. Treasury bonds, unlike mutual funds, are insured direct obligations of the U.S. Government that offer a fixed rate of return when held to maturity. A quality rating, such as “BB,” refers to the credit risk of individual securities, and not to the Fund. Investment by a Fund in lower-rated and non-rated securities presents a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher-rated securities.

Bond Funds have similar interest rates, issues and credit risks as those associated with the underlying bonds in their portfolio, all of which could reduce a Fund’s value. As interest rates rise, the value of a Bond Fund can decline and an investor can lose principal. The High Yield Bond Fund purchases more speculative bonds, which are subject to greater risks than higher-rated bonds. The Strategic Income Fund engages in sophisticated investment strategies. The AlphaTrak 500 Fund trades futures and derivative contracts. These Funds may not be suitable for all investors.

The views and forecasts expressed here are as of October 2009, are subject to change without notice and may not come to pass. Investment strategies may not achieve the desired results due to implementation lag, other timing factors, portfolio management decision-making, economic or market conditions or other unanticipated factors.

Disclosure of Fund Expenses

For the Six Months Ended September 30, 2009 (Unaudited)

We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of fees regarding your investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a mutual fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund. A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing fees (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

This table illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:

Actual Fund Return: This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses, after any applicable fee waivers, that you paid over the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the Fund’s actual return for the past six month period, the “Expense Ratio” column shows the period’s annualized expense ratio, and the “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Fund at the beginning of the period.

You may use the information here, together with your account value, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, 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 given for your Fund in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”

Hypothetical 5% Return: This section is intended to help you compare your Fund’s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case, because the return used is not the Fund’s actual return, the results do not apply to your investment. This example is useful in making comparisons to other mutual funds because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on an assumed 5% annual return. You can assess your Fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Please note that the expense shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. The Metropolitan West Funds do not charge any sales loads or exchange fees, but these may be present in other funds to which you compare this data. Therefore, the hypothetical portions of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

SUMMARY OF ORGANIZATION

The Metropolitan West Funds (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust on December 9, 1996 and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act” as amended). Metropolitan West Asset Management, LLC (the “Adviser”), a federally registered investment adviser, provides the Funds (as defined below) with investment management services. The Trust currently consists of seven separate portfolios (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”): Metropolitan West Ultra Short Bond Fund (the “Ultra Short Bond Fund”), Metropolitan West Low Duration Bond Fund (the “Low Duration Bond Fund”), Metropolitan West Intermediate Bond Fund (the “Intermediate Bond Fund”), Metropolitan West Total Return Bond Fund (the “Total Return Bond Fund”), Metropolitan West High Yield Bond Fund (the “High Yield Bond Fund”), Metropolitan West Strategic Income Fund (the “Strategic Income Fund”), and Metropolitan West AlphaTrak 500 Fund (the “AlphaTrak 500 Fund”). The Total Return Bond Fund and Low Duration Bond Fund commenced investment operations on March 31, 1997. Effective March 31, 2000, the Low Duration Bond Fund and the Total Return Bond Fund offered two classes of shares: Class M and Class I shares. The AlphaTrak 500 Fund – Class M commenced investment operations on June 29, 1998. The Intermediate Bond Fund – Class I commenced operations on June 28, 2002. The High Yield Bond Fund – Class M commenced operations on September 30, 2002. The High Yield Bond Fund – Class I commenced operations on March 31, 2003. Class M shares of the Intermediate Bond Fund, the Ultra Short Bond Fund, and the Strategic Income Fund commenced operations on June 30, 2003. The Strategic Income Fund – Class I commenced operations on March 31, 2004 and the Ultra Short Bond Fund – Class I commenced operations on July 30, 2004. The Low Duration Bond Fund – Administrative Class commenced operations on September 23, 2009.

The Ultra Short Bond Fund seeks to maximize current income, consistent with preservation of capital. This Fund invests in a portfolio of fixed-income securities of varying maturities with a portfolio duration of up to one year. The Fund’s dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity will normally exceed one year.

The Low Duration Bond Fund seeks to maximize current income, consistent with preservation of capital. This Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of fixed-income securities of varying maturities with a portfolio duration of up to three years. The Fund’s dollar-weighted average maturity is expected to range from one to five years.

The Intermediate Bond Fund seeks to maximize current income, consistent with preservation of capital. This Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of fixed-income securities of varying maturities with a portfolio duration of one to six years. The Fund’s dollar-weighted average maturity is expected to range from three to seven years.

The Total Return Bond Fund seeks to maximize long-term total return. This Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of fixed-income securities of varying maturities with a portfolio duration of two to eight years. The Fund’s dollar-weighted average maturity is expected to range from two to fifteen years.

The High Yield Bond Fund seeks to maximize long-term total return consistent with preservation of capital. This Fund invests in a portfolio of high yield fixed-income securities of varying maturities with a portfolio duration of two to eight years. The Fund is non-diversified and may invest a greater percentage of its assets in one or more particular issuers than a diversified fund. The Fund’s dollar-weighted average maturity is expected to range from two to fifteen years.

The Strategic Income Fund seeks to maximize long-term total return without tracking any particular markets or indices. This Fund uses techniques intended to provide absolute (positive) returns in all markets by employing a strategy intended to produce high income while exploiting disparities or inefficiencies in markets. The Fund will focus on inefficiencies related to secured or asset-backed debt compared with unsecured and subordinated debt or equity of companies and issuers. Additionally, the Fund will focus on longer-term cyclical anomalies in the fixed income markets to both enhance yield and realize potential price appreciation. These anomalies include: shifts in the portfolio’s duration, yield curve anomalies, and sector and issue-specific dislocations. The Fund is non-diversified and may invest a greater percentage of its assets in one or more particular issuers than a diversified fund.

The AlphaTrak 500 Fund seeks to achieve a total return that exceeds the total return of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (“S&P 500 Index”). The Fund combines non-leveraged investments in S&P 500 Index futures contracts and swaps with a diversified portfolio of fixed-income securities of varying maturities with a portfolio duration of up to three years. The Fund’s dollar-weighted average maturity is expected to range from one to five years.

A more complete description of the objectives and strategies of each of the Funds can be found in the Prospectus and the Statement of Additional Information, which can be obtained at www.mwamllc.com or by calling (800) 241-4671.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds:

Security Valuation:

The Funds value securities pursuant to policies and procedures approved by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Fixed-income securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at prices as provided by independent pricing vendors. The Funds receive pricing information from independent pricing vendors (approved by the Board) which also use information provided by market makers or estimates of values obtained from yield data relating to investments of securities with similar characteristics. As appropriate, quotations for high yield bonds may also take additional factors into consideration such as the activity of the underlying equity or sector movements. However, securities with a demand feature exercisable within one to seven days are valued at par. The Funds also use a benchmark pricing system to the extent vendor’s prices for their securities are either inaccurate (such as when the reported prices are different from recent known market transactions) or are not available from another pricing source. For a security priced using this system, the Adviser initially selects a proxy comprised of a relevant security (i.e. U.S. Treasury Note) or benchmark (e.g. LIBOR) and a multiplier, divisor or margin that the Adviser believes would together best reflect changes in the market value of the security. The value of the security changes daily based on changes to the market price of the assigned benchmark. Once each month the Adviser obtains from one or more dealers an independent review of prices produced by the benchmark system as well as a review of the benchmark selected to adjust the price. The benchmark pricing system is continuously reviewed by the Adviser and implemented according to the pricing policy reviewed by the Board. Debt securities, which mature in less than 60 days, are valued at amortized cost if their original maturity was 60 days or less. If their original term to maturity exceeded 60 days, they are valued by amortizing the value as of the 61st day prior to maturity (unless the Board determines that this method does not represent fair value). S&P 500 futures contracts are valued at the first sale price after 4 p.m. ET on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. All other futures contracts are valued at the official settlement price of the exchange where it is traded. Equity securities, including depository receipts, are valued at the last reported sale price or the market’s closing price on the exchange or market on which such securities are traded, as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued or, lacking any sales, at the average of the bid and asked prices. In cases where equity securities are traded on more than one exchange, the securities are valued on the exchange or market determined by the Adviser to be the broadest and most representative market, which may be either a securities exchange or the over-the-counter market. Securities and other assets that cannot be valued as described above will be valued at their fair value as determined by the Adviser under guidelines established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Board.

Securities Transactions and Investment Income:

Security transactions are accounted for no later than the first net asset value calculation on the first business day following the trade date. However, for financial reporting purposes, portfolio securities transactions are reported on trade date. Cost is determined and gains and losses are based on the first-in first-out method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued daily. Discounts and premiums on securities are amortized using the interest method.

Distributions to Shareholders:

The Funds (except the AlphaTrak 500 Fund) expect to declare distributions daily and pay them monthly to shareholders. The AlphaTrak 500 Fund expects to declare and pay distributions to shareholders quarterly. Distributions of net capital gains, if any, will be made at least annually. The Board may determine to declare and make distributions more or less frequently.

Federal Income Taxation:

It is each Fund’s policy to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments, to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and long-term capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Distributions determined in accordance with tax regulations may differ in amount or character from net investment income and realized gains for financial reporting purposes. Financial reporting records are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character. Financial records are not adjusted for temporary differences.

Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years (current and prior three tax years), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements. The Fund’s federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.

 

  Semi-Annual Report September 2009 / 111


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

As of and during the period ended September 30, 2009 (Unaudited), the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the statement of operations. During the period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

The Funds are not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years before 2004, by state tax authorities for tax years before 2003 and by tax authorities outside the U.S. for tax years before 2000.

Cash and cash equivalents:

The Funds have defined cash and cash equivalents as cash in interest bearing and non-interest bearing accounts.

Derivatives Not Accounted for as Hedging Instruments:

Fair Value Measurements - Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows:

* Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

* Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

* Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by observable market data

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

As of September 30, 2009, Level 3 securities consist of asset-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, corporate bonds and interest only securities that trade in over the counter markets. These securities are valued using indicative bid and ask quotations from bond dealers and market makers. Indicative quotations and other information used by the Funds may not always be directly observable in the marketplace due to the nature of these markets and the manner of execution. These inputs, the methodology used for valuing such securities, and the characterization of such securities as Level 3 securities are not necessarily an indication of liquidity, or the risk associated with investing in these securities.

Use of estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period.

PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS

The Funds may invest in mortgage pass-through securities which represent interests in pools of mortgages in which payments of both principal and interest on the securities are generally made monthly, in effect “passing through” monthly payments made by borrowers on the residential or commercial mortgage loans which underlie the securities (net of any fees paid to the issuer or guarantor of the securities). Mortgage pass-through securities differ from other forms of debt securities, which normally provide for periodic payment of interest in fixed amounts with principal payments at maturity or specified call dates.

The Funds may invest in securities issued by Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. (“FHLMC”). These are fixed income securities that derive their value from or represent interests in a pool of mortgages or mortgage securities. An unexpectedly high rate of defaults on the mortgages held by a mortgage pool may adversely affect the value of a mortgage-backed security and could result in losses to the Funds. The risk of such defaults is generally higher in the case of mortgage pools that include sub-prime mortgages. Sub-prime mortgages refer to loans made to borrowers with weakened credit histories or with a lower capacity to make timely payments on their mortgages. The securities are not backed by sub-prime borrowers.

Additionally, securities issued by FNMA and FHLMC are not backed by or entitled to the full faith and credit of the United States and are supported by the right to the issuer to borrow from the Treasury.

On September 7, 2008, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) was appointed as conservator of FNMA and FHLMC. In addition, the U.S. Department of the Treasury has agreed to provide capital as needed to ensure FNMA and FHLMC continue to provide liquidity to the housing and mortgage markets.

The Funds may also invest in Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (“CMOs”). CMOs are debt obligations collateralized by residential or commercial mortgage loans or residential or commercial mortgage pass-through securities. Interest and principal are generally paid monthly. CMOs may be collateralized by whole mortgage loans or private mortgage pass-through securities but are more typically collateralized by portfolios of mortgage pass-through securities guaranteed by GNMA, FHLMC, or FNMA. The issuer of a series of CMOs may elect to be treated for tax purposes as a Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit (“REMIC”). CMOs are structured into multiple classes, each bearing a different stated maturity. Monthly payment of principal received from the pool of underlying mortgages, including prepayments, is first returned to investors holding the shortest maturity class. Investors holding the longer maturity classes usually receive principal only after shorter classes have been retired. An investor may be partially protected against a sooner than desired return of principal because of the sequential payments.

The Funds may enter into to be announced (“TBA”) commitments to purchase or sell securities for a fixed price at a future date. TBA commitments are considered securities in themselves, and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased or sold declines or increases prior to settlement date, which is in addition to the risk of decline in the value of the Funds’ other assets. Unsettled TBA commitments are valued at the current market value of the underlying securities, according to the procedures described in Note 2 under “Security Valuation”.

The Funds may invest in Collateralized Bond Obligations (“CBOs”), Collateralized Loan Obligations (“CLOs”) and other Collateralized Debt Obligations (“CDOs”), which are debt instruments backed solely by a pool of other debt securities. The risks of an investment in a CBO, CLO or other CDO depend largely on the type of the collateral securities and the class of the CBO, CLO or other CDO in which a Fund invests. Some CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs have credit ratings, but are typically issued in various classes with various priorities. Normally, CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs are privately offered and sold (that is, not registered under the securities laws) and may be characterized by the Funds as illiquid securities, but an active dealer market may exist for CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs that qualify for Rule 144A transactions. In addition to the normal interest rate, default and other risks of fixed income securities CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs carry additional risks, including the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments, the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default, the Funds may invest in CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs that are subordinate to other classes, volatility in value, and the complex structure of the security may not be fully understood at the time of investment and produce disputes with the issuer or unexpected investment results.

The Funds may invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities issued by the U.S. Government, its agencies and instrumentalities. Stripped mortgage-backed securities are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. In certain cases, one class will receive all of the interest (the interest-only or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only or “PO” class). During the six months ended September 30, 2009, certain interest only securities were held as part of the overall mortgage portfolio holdings. The yield to maturity on IOs is sensitive to the rate of principal repayments (including prepayments) on the related underlying mortgage assets, and principal payments may have a material effect on yield to maturity. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, a Fund may not fully recoup its initial investment in IOs. Such securities will be considered liquid only if so determined in accordance with guidelines established by the Board. The Funds also may invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities that are privately issued. These securities will be considered illiquid for purposes of each Fund’s limit on illiquid securities.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

The Funds may purchase participations in commercial loans, or may purchase assignments of such loans. Such indebtedness may be secured or unsecured. Loan participations typically represent direct participation in a loan to a corporate borrower, and generally are offered by banks or other financial institutions or lending syndicates. The Funds may participate in such syndications, or can buy part of a loan, becoming a part lender. When purchasing loan participations, a Fund assumes the credit risk associated with the corporate borrower and may assume the credit risk associated with an interposed bank or other financial intermediary. The participation interests in which a Fund intends to invest may not be rated by any nationally recognized rating service. Participations and assignments also involve special types of risk, including interest rate risk, liquidity risk, and the risk of being a lender. If the Fund purchases a participation, it may only be able to enforce its rights through the lender, and may assume the credit risk of the lender in addition to the borrower.

The Funds may also sell a debt or equity security short that is, without owning it and borrow the same security from a broker or other institution to complete the sale. The Adviser may use short sales when it believes a security is overvalued or as a partial hedge against a position in a related security of the same issuer held by a Fund. The Ultra Short Bond Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Intermediate Bond Fund, and Total Return Bond Fund, will not make total short sales exceeding 25% of the value of that Fund’s assets. The High Yield Bond Fund and Strategic Income Fund will not make total short sales exceeding 33 1/3% of the Fund’s assets. If the value of the security sold short increases, a Fund would lose money because it would need to replace the borrowed security by purchasing it at a higher price. The potential loss is unlimited. (If the short sale was intended as a hedge against another investment, the loss on the short sale may be fully or partially offset by gains in that other investment.) At September 30, 2009, the Funds did not hold any short debt or equity.

A lender may request that the borrowed securities be returned on short notice; if that occurs at a time when other short sellers of the subject security are receiving similar requests, a “short squeeze” can occur. This means that the Fund might be compelled, at the most disadvantageous time, to replace borrowed securities previously sold short, with purchases on the open market at prices significantly greater than those at which the securities were sold short. Short selling also may produce higher than normal portfolio turnover and result in increased transaction costs to the Fund. The Funds also may make short sales “against-the-box”, in which the Funds sell short securities they own. The Funds will incur transaction costs, including interest expenses, in connection with opening, maintaining and closing short sales against-the-box, which result in a “constructive sale”, requiring the Fund to recognize any taxable gain from the transaction.

The Funds may enter into reverse repurchase agreements, whereby a Fund sells securities concurrently with entering into an agreement to repurchase those securities at a later date at a fixed price. During the reverse repurchase agreement period, the Fund continues to receive principal and interest payments on those securities. Reverse repurchase agreements are speculative techniques involving leverage and are considered borrowings by the Fund for purposes of the percentage limitations applicable to borrowings. The average dollar amount and average interest rate of reverse repurchase agreements in the Low Duration Bond Fund, Strategic Income Fund and the AlphaTrak 500 Fund for the period ended September 30, 2009 were $7,964,902 and 0.60%, $4,141,197 and 1.78% and $1,176,918 and 0.57%, respectively.

Derivatives:

The Funds may engage in various portfolio investment strategies both to increase the return of the Fund and to economically hedge, or protect, their exposure to interest rate movements and movements in the securities markets. Losses may arise if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the price of the underlying security or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. The Funds are subject to credit risk, equity price risk and interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives by investing in various derivative financial instruments, as described below. The derivatives listed on the Schedules of Portfolio Investments are indicative of the activity for the period ended September 30, 2009.

Options – The Funds may purchase and write call and put options on securities, securities indices and on foreign currencies. A Fund may purchase put options on securities to seek to protect holdings in an underlying or related security against a substantial decline in market value. A Fund may purchase call options on securities to seek to protect against substantial increases in prices of securities the Fund intends to purchase pending its ability to invest in such securities in an orderly manner. A Fund may write a call or put option only if the option is covered by the Fund’s holding a position in the underlying securities or by other means which would permit immediate satisfaction of the Fund’s obligation as writer of the option. The purchase and writing of options involves certain risks. During the option period, the covered call writer has, in return for the premium on the option, given up the opportunity to profit from a price increase in the underlying securities above the sum of the premium and exercise price, but, as long as its obligation as a writer continues, has retained the risk of loss should the price of the underlying securities decline. The writer of an option has no control over the time when it maybe required to fulfill its obligation as a writer of the option. Once an option writer has received an exercise notice, it cannot effect a closing purchase transaction in order to terminate its obligation under the option and must deliver the underlying securities at the exercise price. If a put or call option purchased by the Fund is not sold when it has remaining value, and if the market price of the underlying security, in the case of a put, remains equal to or greater than the exercise price or, in the case of a call, remains

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

less than or equal to the exercise price, the Fund will lose its entire investment in the option. There can be no assurance that a liquid market will exist when a Fund seeks to close out an option position. Furthermore, if trading restrictions or suspensions are imposed on the options markets, a Fund may be unable to close out a position.

The Funds may execute transactions in both listed and over-the-counter options. Listed options involve minimal counterparty risk since listed options are guaranteed against default by the exchange on which they trade. Transactions in certain over-the-counter options may expose the Funds to the risk of default by the counterparty to the transaction. In the event of default by the counterparty to the over-the-counter option transaction, the Fund’s maximum amount of loss is the premium paid (as purchaser) or the unrealized loss of the contract (as writer).

Futures - The Funds may purchase or sell exchange-traded futures contracts, which are contracts that obligate the Fund to make or take delivery of a financial instrument or the cash value of a security index at a specified future date at a specified price. The Funds may use futures contracts to manage exposure to the stock and bond markets or changes in interest rates and currency values, or for gaining exposure to markets. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market at the time the Adviser to the Fund may be attempting to sell some or all the Fund holdings or that a change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin). Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the Fund, generally on a daily basis. The variation margin payments are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The Funds recognize a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires.

Futures transactions involve minimal counterparty risk since futures contracts are guaranteed against default by the exchange on which they trade.

Swaps - The Funds may invest in swap agreements. Swap agreements are two-party contracts entered into primarily by institutional investors for periods ranging from a few weeks to more than a year. In a standard swap transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns earned on specific assets, such as the return on, or increase in value of, a particular dollar amount invested at a particular interest rate, in a particular foreign currency, or in a basket of securities representing a particular index. A swap contract may not be assigned without the consent of the counter-party (and in certain circumstances may not be assignable), and may result in losses in the event of a default or bankruptcy of the counterparty.

The Funds may enter into credit default swap agreements. The buyer in a credit default contract is obligated to pay the seller a periodic, stream of payments over the term of the contract provided no event of default has occurred. In the event of default, the seller must pay the buyer the par value (full notional value) of the reference obligation in exchange for the reference obligation. The Funds may be either the buyer or seller in such transactions. If the Fund is a buyer and no event of default occurs, the Fund loses its investment and recovers nothing. However, if an event of default occurs, the buyer receives full notional value for a reference obligation that may have little or no value. As a seller of a credit default swap, the Fund receives a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the contract, provided there is no default event. If an event of default occurs, the seller may pay the notional value of the reference obligation. The value of the reference obligation received by the seller, coupled with the periodic payments previously received may be less than the full notional value it pays to the buyer, resulting in a loss of value to the Fund. Credit default swaps involve greater risks than if the Fund had invested in the reference obligation directly. In addition to general market risks, credit default swaps are subject to illiquidity risk, counterparty risk and credit risk.

The Funds may enter into interest rate swap agreements. Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party pays a floating rate of interest on a notional principal amount and receives a fixed rate of interest on the same notional principal amount for a specified period of time. Alternatively, a party may pay a fixed rate and receive a floating rate. In more complex swaps, the notional principal amount may decline (or amortize) over time. The Funds’ maximum risk of loss due to counterparty default is the discounted net asset value of the cash flows paid to/received from the counterparty over the interest rate swap’s remaining life. The Funds enter into interest rate swaps to manage duration, the yield curve or interest rate risk by economically hedging the value of the fixed rate bonds which may decrease when interest rates rise (interest rate risk).

The Funds may write (sell) and purchase put and call swaptions. Swaption contracts written by the Funds represent an option that gives the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to enter into a new swap agreement, or to shorten, extend, cancel or modify an existing swap agreement, on a future date on specified terms. Depending on the terms of the particular option agreement, a Fund will generally incur a greater degree of risk when it writes a swaption than it will incur when it purchases a swaption. When a Fund purchases a swaption, it risks losing only the amount of the premium it has paid should it decide to let the option expire unexercised. However, when a Fund writes a swaption, upon exercise of the option the Fund will become obligated according to the terms of the underlying agreement. At September 30, 2009, the Funds did not hold swaptions.

In addition to the securities listed above, the AlphaTrak 500 Fund may invest in the following equity derivative instruments with a notional or contractual value up to its total assets: S&P 500 Index futures contracts, Mini S&P 500 Index futures contracts, options

 

  Semi-Annual Report September 2009 / 121


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

on the S&P 500 Index and S&P futures, and swap agreements involving the S&P 500 Index. When the above listed S&P Index derivatives appear to be overvalued relative to the S&P 500 Index, the Fund may invest up to 100% in the common stocks that comprise the S&P 500 Index. The Fund may also invest up to 25% of its total assets in these stocks indirectly by purchasing interests in one or more mutual funds, asset pools, or trusts that invest in such stocks.

The Funds also may enter into total return swap agreements. Total Return Swap is the generic name for any non-traditional swap where one party agrees to pay the other the “total return” of a defined underlying asset, usually in return for receiving a stream of LIBOR based cashflows. The Total Return Swap may be applied to any underlying asset but is most commonly used with equity indices, single stocks, bonds and defined portfolios of loans and mortgages. The Total Return Swap is a mechanism for the user to accept the economic benefits of asset ownership without utilizing the balance sheet. The other leg of the swap, usually LIBOR, is spread to reflect the non-balance sheet nature of the product. Total Return Swaps can be designed with any underlying asset agreed between two parties.

As a result, unrealized gains are reported as an asset and unrealized losses are reported as a liability on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The change in the value of the swaps, including periodic amounts of interest paid or received on swaps is reported as unrealized gains or losses in both the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the Statements of Operations. A realized gain or loss is recorded upon payment or termination of swap agreements. Swap agreements are stated at fair value. Notional principal amounts are used upon payment or receipt of a periodic payment or termination of swap agreements to express the extent of involvement in these transactions, but the amounts subject to credit risk are much smaller. At September 30, 2009 (Unaudited), the Funds had outstanding swap agreements as listed in the Funds’ Schedules of Portfolio Investments. Swap transactions present risk of loss in excess of the related amounts in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Terminated Swaps Payable and Maturities Receivable from Lehman Brothers:

On September 15, 2008, Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. (“Lehman”) filed for bankruptcy protection. At that time, the Funds had outstanding swap agreements with Lehman Brothers Special Financing Inc. (“LBSF”) as the counter-party, which is an affiliate of Lehman. Additionally, Lehman guaranteed LBSF’s obligations under those agreements. The Funds exercised their right under the swap agreements to terminate the contracts due to the bankruptcy filing. Corresponding liabilities as shown in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as Payable for the terminated swaps were recorded on the books and records of the Funds to reflect the amount of unrealized loss embedded within the swap agreements at the termination date as determined by the Management of the Funds. Additionally, some of the Funds held Lehman notes, some of which as of September 30, 2009 had contractually matured. The Funds have set up receivables at the estimated market value of those matured notes. To estimate the market value of those receivables, the Management of the Funds obtained independent broker prices on the outstanding Lehman notes. The Management of the Funds believes those prices to be representative of current market value. It is not now known whether and to what extent any set-offs between those notes and the swap liabilities may be applied by the court.

During March, 2009, the Funds paid LBSF the amounts owed after applying the set-off balances of the notes. During April and May, 2009, LBSF filed complaints in the United States Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York, against the Total Return Bond Fund and the Low Duration Bond Fund, as well as Metropolitan West Asset Management LLC (Adv. Proc. No. 09-01165 (JMP)). The complaints allege that the Total Return Bond Fund and the Low Duration Bond Fund owe LBSF $46.2 million and $17.3 million plus interest, respectively, and other unspecified damages.

Those principal amounts are reflected in the Funds’ financial statements as liabilities still owed to LBSF.

Management of the Funds does not believe that interest is due on the amounts claimed and is defending the position with legal action. Management of the Funds also is pursuing settlement discussions with representatives of the estate of LBSF. The ultimate resolution of these actions by court action or settlement is uncertain. The Funds will incur their share of related legal fees and expenses to defend these actions. If the Funds are unsuccessful in their defense, they could also incur interest expenses and other costs as part of the resolution.

RISK CONSIDERATIONS

Market Risk: Because the values of the Funds’ investments will fluctuate with market conditions, so will the value of your investment in the Funds. You could lose money on your investment in the Funds or the Funds could underperform other investments.

Liquidity Risk: The Funds’ investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the Funds because they may not be able to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Investments in high yield securities, foreign securities, derivatives or other securities with substantial market and/or credit risk tend to have the greatest exposure to liquidity risk. Certain investments in private placements and Rule 144A securities may be considered illiquid investments. The Funds may invest in private placements and Rule 144A securities.

 

122 / Semi-Annual Report September 2009  


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

Interest Rate Risk: The values of the Funds’ investments fluctuate in response to movements in interest rates. If rates rise, the values of debt securities generally fall. The longer the average duration of the Funds’ investment portfolio, the greater the change in value.

Mortgage-Backed and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk: Each Fund may invest in mortgage-backed or other asset-backed securities. The values of some mortgaged-backed or other asset-backed securities may expose a Fund to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. When interest rates rise, the value of mortgage-related securities generally will decline; however, when interest rates are declining, the value of mortgage related-securities with prepayment features may not increase as much as other fixed income securities. The rate of prepayments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of a mortgage-related security, and may shorten or extend the effective maturity of the security beyond what was anticipated at the time of purchase. If unanticipated rate of prepayment on underlying mortgages increase the effective maturity of a mortgage-related security, the volatility of the security can be expected to increase. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.

Derivatives Risk: Use of derivatives, which at times is an important part of the Funds’ investment strategy, involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Investments in derivatives could cause the Funds to lose more than the principal amount invested. Also, suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances and there can be no assurance that the Funds will engage in these transactions to reduce exposure to other risks when that would be beneficial.

Credit Risk: The values of any of the Funds’ investments may also decline in response to events affecting the issuer or its credit rating. The lower rated debt securities in which the Fund may invest are considered speculative and are subject to greater volatility and risk of loss than investment grade securities, particularly in deteriorating economic conditions. The value of some mortgage-related securities in which the Funds invest also may fall because of unanticipated levels of principal prepayments that can occur when interest rates decline.

Certain of the Funds invest a material portion of their assets in securities of issuers that hold mortgage and asset backed securities and direct investments in securities backed by commercial and residential mortgage loans and other financial assets. The value and related income of these securities is sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including delinquencies and/or defaults. Continuing shifts in the market’s perception of credit quality on securities backed by commercial and residential mortgage loans and other financial assets may result in increased volatility of market price and periods of illiquidity that can negatively impact the valuation of certain issuers held by the Funds.

Mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and Asset-backed securities (ABS) are characterized and classified in a variety of different ways. These classifications include a view of the securities’ cash flow structure (pass-through, sequential pay, prepayment-protected, interest-only, principal-only, etc.), the security of the claim on the underlying assets, (senior, mezzanine and subordinated), as well as types of underlying collateral (prime conforming loans, prime non-conforming loans, Alt-A loans, subprime loans, commercial loans, etc.) In many cases, the classification incorporates a degree of subjectivity: a particular loan might be categorized as “prime” by the underwriting standards of one mortgage issuer while another might classify the loan as “subprime.” In addition to other functions, the risk associated with an investment in a mortgage loan must take into account the nature of the collateral, the form and the level of credit enhancement, the vintage of the loan, the geography of the loan, the purpose of the loan (refinance vs. purchase vs. equity take-out), the borrower’s credit quality (e.g. FICO score), and whether the loan is a first trust deed or a second lien.

The mortgage industry lacks a single bright-line as to what separates a subprime loan from an Alt-A loan. Often it is a combination of loan characteristics involving both borrower criteria as well as collateral criteria that determine which category a loan is placed in. However, in order to be both conservative and objective as possible, the Adviser applied the following criteria to the Funds’ residential mortgage and asset-backed holdings in coming up with its categorizations:

Sub Prime - Any asset-backed bond whose collateral was residential mortgages were considered to be subprime, provided that the loans did not belong to the classification of manufactured housing loans.

Alt-A - Any mortgage-backed security whose average borrower FICO score was less than 730 and/or was listed as an Alt-A pool by Bloomberg were considered to be Alt-A bonds.

Counterparty Risk: The Funds may be exposed to counterparty risk, or the risk that an entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions may default. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Funds to credit and counterparty risks, consist principally of investments and cash due from counterparties. The extent of the Funds’ exposure to credit and counterparty risks with respect to these financial assets is approximated by their fair value recorded in the Funds’ Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

of 0.25%, 0.30%, 0.35%, 0.35%, and 0.50%, respectively, of each Fund’s average daily net assets. The Adviser charges the AlphaTrak 500 Fund a basic fee of 0.35% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The basic fee may be adjusted upward or downward (by up to 0.35% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the relevant three month performance period), depending on whether, and to what extent, the investment performance of the AlphaTrak 500 Fund before management fees, for the relevant performance period, exceeds or is exceeded by, the performance of the S&P 500 Index plus an annualized margin of 1.00% over the same period. Under this agreement, the basic fee was increased by 0.11% resulting in $131,220 total management fees for the period ended September 30, 2009. The Adviser charges the Strategic Income Fund a basic fee of 1.20% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The basic fee may be adjusted upward or downward (by up to 0.70% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the relevant twelve month performance period), depending on whether, and to what extent, the investment performance of the Strategic Income Fund, for the relevant performance period, exceeds or is exceeded by, the performance of the Merrill Lynch 3 Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index plus 2.00% over the same period. Under this agreement, the basic fee was decreased by 0.84% resulting in $282,081 of total management fees for the period ended September 30, 2009.

The Adviser has agreed in an operating expenses agreement with the Trust to limit each Fund’s expenses as described in the table below. The operating expenses agreement has a one-year term, renewable at the end of each fiscal year. Each Fund has agreed to reimburse the Adviser, for a period of up to three years, for any such payments to the extent that the Fund’s operating expenses are otherwise below its expense cap (excluding the AlphaTrak 500 Fund and the Strategic Income Fund, which shall reimburse the Adviser to the extent that the Fund’s other expenses, are below an agreed-upon cap). The Adviser’s obligation will not be recorded as a liability on the books of the applicable Fund to the extent that the total operating expenses (other expenses with respect to the AlphaTrak 500 Fund and the Strategic Income Fund) of the Fund are at or above the expense cap. However, if the total operating expenses (other expenses with respect to the AlphaTrak 500 Fund and the Strategic Income Fund) of a Fund fall below the expense cap, the reimbursement to the Adviser (up to the cap) will be accrued by the Fund as a liability if the Adviser seeks to recoup those amounts and the independent trustees have approved that reimbursement. The Adviser may not request or receive reimbursement from a Fund for prior reductions or reimbursements before the payment of a Fund’s operating expenses for the year. Investment advisory fees and related voluntary expense limitations for the period ended September 30, 2009, were as follows:

Certain officers and trustees of the Funds are also officers and directors of the Adviser. Such officers and trustees serve without direct compensation from the Funds. Each of the independent trustees receives an annual retainer of $12,000 and $3,000 for each meeting of the Board attended. The Trust has an unfunded, non-qualified deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) for certain eligible Trustees. The Plan allows Trustees to defer some or all of their annual trustees’ fees otherwise payable by the Trust for a minimum of three years. The fees deferred are posted to a bookkeeping account maintained by the Trust. The various series of the Trust will use the returns on those Funds selected by the Trustee to determine the income, gains and losses to allocate to the account. At the time for commencing distributions from a Trustee’s deferral account, which is no later than when the Trustee ceases to be a member of the Board, deferred fees will be paid out in a single sum in cash or a maximum of ten annual installments. The expenses related to the annual retainer, meeting fees, and/or any fluctuation in the selected Funds under the Plan are recorded in Trustees’ fees and expenses on the Statement of Operations.

SHARE MARKETING (12b-1) Plan and Shareholder Servicing Plan

The Trust has a Share Marketing Plan (or the “Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act with respect to Class M shares of the Ultra Short Bond Fund, the Low Duration Bond Fund, the Intermediate Bond Fund, the Total Return Bond Fund, the HighYield Bond Fund, the Strategic Income Fund and the AlphaTrak 500 Fund. The Total Return Bond Fund and Low Duration Bond Fund began accruing for Rule 12b-1 expenses on April 1, 2000. The High Yield Bond Fund began accruing for Rule 12b-1 expenses on October 2, 2002. The Ultra Short Bond Fund, the Intermediate Bond Fund, and the Strategic Income Fund began accruing for Rule 12b-1 expenses on July 2, 2003. Under the Plan, the Trust pays PFPC Distributors, Inc., as the Trust’s distribution coordinator, an annual fee up to 0.25% of each Fund’s aggregate average daily net assets to reimburse expenses in connection with the promotion and distribution of shares of the respective Fund. The Adviser has undertaken to limit the Rule 12b-1 expenses to 0.16% for the Ultra Short Bond Fund, 0.19% for the Low Duration Bond Fund, and 0.21% for the Intermediate Bond Fund and the Total Return Bond Fund, for the period ended September 30, 2009. The AlphaTrak 500 Fund is currently not incurring Rule 12b-1 fees.

The Funds’ Board of Trustees have adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan that allows each Fund to pay to broker-dealers and other financial intermediaries a fee for shareholder services provided to Fund shareholders who invest in the Administrative Class shares of a Fund through the intermediary. The fee is payable under the Plan at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the particular Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to the Administrative Share class but the Adviser has undertaken to limit these expenses for the current fiscal year to 0.20% of the Fund’s average daily net assets invested through the intermediary.

The redemption fee was assessed on the net asset value of the shares redeemed or exchanged and withheld from the redemption proceeds and paid directly to the Fund.

INDEMNIFICATIONS

Under the Funds’ organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liability arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnification. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve further claims that may be made against the Funds. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

Approval of Investment Management Agreement

(Unaudited)

Factors considered by the Trustees in connection with their approval of the Management Agreement

The Trust is a party to an Investment Management Agreement with the Adviser, dated February 21, 2007 (the “Management Agreement”), with respect to each Fund. The initial term of that Agreement was two years. On May 18, 2009, the Trust’s Board approved the renewal of the Management Agreement for an additional one-year term starting August 1, 2009. The renewal of the Management Agreement was approved by the Board (including a majority of the Independent Trustees) at an in-person meeting upon the recommendation of the Independent Trustees. The Independent Trustees met separately in executive session to discuss and review the information that had been presented for their consideration before the Board’s vote to renew the Management Agreement. The information, material facts and conclusions that formed the basis for their recommendation and the Board’s subsequent approval are described below.

1. Information received

Materials reviewed - During the course of the year since the Board last renewed the Management Agreement on June 2, 2008, the Independent Trustees received a wide variety of materials relating to the services provided by the Adviser, including (but not limited to) reports on each Fund’s investment results, portfolio composition, portfolio trading practices, shareholder services, and other information relating to the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser to the Funds. In addition, the Board reviewed supplementary information provided by Lipper, which is independent of the Funds and the Adviser, that included extensive materials regarding each Fund’s investment results and comparisons of advisory fees and operating expenses to other mutual funds, a comparison to the range of fees charged by the Adviser to its institutional clients as disclosed in the Adviser’s Form ADV, financial and profitability information regarding the Adviser, descriptions of various functions such as compliance monitoring, operational and portfolio trading practices, and information about the personnel providing investment management services to the Funds.

Review process - The Independent Trustees reviewed detailed advice regarding their fiduciary duties as well as legal and industry standards provided by legal counsel to the Trust, which is not independent legal counsel. The Independent Trustees discussed the renewal of the Management Agreement with the Adviser’s representatives and in a private session at which no representatives of the Adviser were present. In deciding to recommend the renewal of the Management Agreement with respect to each Fund, the Independent Trustees did not identify any single or particular piece of information that, in isolation, was the controlling factor. Nor did any Trustee necessarily emphasize the same factors as other Trustees. This summary describes the most important, but not all, of the factors considered by the Board.

2. Nature, extent and quality of services

The Board considered the depth and quality of the Adviser’s investment management process, including its research and intellectual capabilities; the experience, capability and integrity of its senior management and other personnel; the overall resources of its organization; and the ability of its organizational structure to address the various products and strategies applicable to assets under its management. The Board also considered the extent to which the Adviser made available to its investment professionals a variety of resources and systems relating to investment management, compliance, trading, results and portfolio accounting. They considered the Adviser’s commitment to investing in compliance and operations that benefit the Funds. They further noted the high level of communication between the Adviser and the Board about the management of the Funds. In addition, based on the Board’s ongoing meetings throughout the year with various members of the Adviser’s portfolio management team, the Board concluded that these individuals are competent and able to carry out their responsibilities under the Management Agreement.

In determining whether to continue the Management Agreement, the Board considered the ongoing, long-term relationship with the Adviser, as well as the long-term tenure of certain Independent Trustees, which gives the Board important insight and knowledge into the Adviser’s overall business operations. The Board concluded that continuing the business relationship based on that knowledge should be beneficial to the Funds and their shareholders.

The Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser are of a high quality and have benefited and should continue to benefit the Funds and their shareholders.

3. Investment results

The Board considered the investment results of each Fund in light of its investment objective. They compared each Fund’s total returns with the total returns of other mutual funds in peer group reports prepared by Lipper, an independent data provider, with respect to various periods. In reviewing each Fund’s relative performance, the Board took into account any unique characteristics and its asset size, diversification and range of investments.

The Board noted that each Fund’s performance was acceptable over the relevant periods, and in some cases favorable, particularly from a longer-term perspective, which the Board believes is the most relevant. The Trustees particularly noted the value investment style of the Funds, and the importance of looking to longer-term records, which would appropriately discount short-term periods during which the

Approval of Investment Management Agreement (continued)

 

Adviser’s investment style may not be in favor by the bond markets. The Adviser explained that the performance comparison benchmark for the Strategic Income Fund does not exemplify the Fund’s investment style and, therefore, the Fund’s relative underperformance does not provide a useful comparison. The Adviser further explained that the Strategic Income Fund is somewhat unique and described to the Board why it is difficult to find a fully adequate comparison group for it. (See further discussion in paragraph 4 below.) The Board also recognized periods of underperformance for certain Funds in more recent periods, but that longer term results were still favorable overall. The Board ultimately concluded that the Adviser was implementing each Fund’s investment objective and the Adviser’s record in managing the Funds indicates that its continued management should benefit the Fund and its shareholders over a longer term.

4. Advisory fees and total expenses

The Board compared the advisory fees and total expenses of each Fund (each as a percentage of average net assets) with the median fee and expense levels of other mutual funds in the relevant Lipper peer groups. These comparisons assisted the Board by providing a reasonable statistical measure to assess each Fund’s fees relative to its relevant peers. The Board observed that, except for the Strategic Income Fund, each Fund’s advisory fee was at or below the approximate average of the peer group funds, which in part reflects the intended pricing of the Funds for institutional investors. The Board discussed why the Lipper peer group was not a suitable comparison for that Fund because the Strategic Income Fund should instead be compared to private absolute value funds, which the Adviser views as that Fund’s closest relevant comparison and to which it compares favorably. The Board further noted that the AlphaTrak 500 Fund and the Strategic Income Fund both employ a fulcrum fee that adjusts upward from a basic fee only if the Fund enjoys favorable performance against its specified benchmark (and adjusts downward in the case of unfavorable relative performance). The Board further noted the relevant contractual expense limitations that the Adviser has agreed to with respect to each Fund and that the Adviser historically has absorbed any expenses in excess of these limits. The Board concluded that the relatively low level of the fees charged by the Adviser will benefit each Fund and its shareholders.

The Board also reviewed information regarding the Adviser’s schedule of advisory fees offered to institutional clients with similar investment mandates. They concluded that, although the fees paid by those clients generally were lower than those paid by the Funds, the differences appropriately reflected the Adviser’s significantly greater responsibilities and expenses with respect to the Funds, including the costs of complying with the more comprehensive regulatory regime applicable to mutual funds.

5. The Adviser’s costs, level of profits and economies of scale

The Independent Trustees reviewed certain financial information regarding the Adviser and discussed its profitability trends. They accepted the Adviser’s assertion that its profit margins have recently flattened or declined with respect to the Funds as a result of recent declines in assets, reduced revenue under the fulcrum fee structure for two Funds, and increased regulatory and other costs involved with the mutual fund business. For example, in 2008 and 2009, the Adviser faced very challenging market conditions and needed to devote additional resources to managing the Funds as well as to valuation and pricing of portfolio securities. The Independent Trustees recognized that the Adviser should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for the services it provides to each Fund. Based on their review, the Independent Trustees concluded that they were satisfied that the Adviser’s level of profitability from its relationship with each Fund was reasonable.

The Independent Trustees considered the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether the advisory fees reflect those economies of scale. They realized that the advisory fees for the Funds do not have breakpoints, which would result in lower advisory fee rates as the Fund grow larger. And, based on their review of the information from Lipper, they accepted the Adviser’s assertion that even without breakpoints, the advisory fees compare favorably to peer group fees and expenses. The Board also recognized the benefits to the Funds of the Adviser’s past investment in the Funds’ operations (through some past subsidies of the Funds’ operating expenses when they were newer and smaller), and the Adviser’s commitment to maintaining reasonable overall operating expenses for each Fund. The Board also recognized that the Funds benefit from receiving investment advice from an organization with other types of advisory clients rather than strictly mutual funds.

6. Ancillary benefits

The Board considered other actual and potential financial benefits to the Adviser in concluding that the contractual advisory fees are reasonable for the Funds. In particular, they noted that the Adviser does not have any affiliates that directly benefit from the Adviser’s relationship to the Funds.

7. Conclusions

Based on their overall review, including their consideration of each of the factors referred to above (and others), the Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that the Management Agreement would be fair and reasonable to each Fund and its shareholders, that the Fund’s shareholders received reasonable value in return for the advisory fees and other amounts paid to the Adviser by each Fund, and that the renewal of the Management Agreement was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders.
