Enhanced Income Fund
Investment Objective:

The investment objective is total return, consisting of capital growth and income.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund:

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund.  

Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)
Annual Fund Operating Expenses
Enhanced Income Fund
Enhanced Income Fund Class N Shares
Management Fees 0.90%
Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees none
Other Expenses 0.36%
Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses (Underlying Funds) [1] 0.42%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses 1.68%
Fee Waiver and Expense Reimbursements [2] (0.21%)
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver 1.47%
[1] This number represents the combined total fees and operating expenses of the Underlying Funds owned by the Fund and is not a direct expense incurred by the Fund or deducted from Fund assets. Since this number does not represent a direct operating expense of the Fund, the operating expenses set forth in the Fund's financial highlights do not include this figure.
[2] The fees shown above take into account CLS's advisory fee waiver agreement to limit total operating expenses at least through December 31, 2014 , so that Class N Share direct expenses (not including expenses relating to dividends on short sales, interest expense, indirect fees and expenses of Underlying Funds and extraordinary or non-recurring expenses) do not exceed 1.05% of average daily net assets. Only the Fund's Board of Trustees may elect to terminate the waiver agreement.
Example:

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based upon these assumptions your costs would be:

Portfolio Turnover:

 The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio).  A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 184% of the average value of the portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies of the Fund:

The Fund invests primarily in exchange traded funds (“ETFs”), other open-end mutual funds, and closed-end funds. This group of investments is referred to as "Underlying Funds." The Fund’s investment adviser, CLS Investments, LLC, seeks to achieve the Fund’s investment objective by using the following investment strategies:


·


investing in a diversified portfolio of Underlying Funds. The Fund invests primarily in equity Underlying Funds based on U.S. companies, indices and sectors, but may invest in Underlying Funds linked to foreign indexes; as well as Underlying Funds linked to fixed income indexes.  


·


as a hedging technique, investing in ETFs that are inverse to the market (the value of the ETF goes up when the market or a certain sector goes down); and


·


writing (selling) exchange traded covered call options with respect to all or a portion of portfolio to generate income as an enhancement to dividends and capital appreciation.  


When the Fund sells a covered call option, the purchaser of the option has the right to buy a particular security, including an index-based ETF, at a predetermined price (exercise price) during the life of the option. The option is "covered" because the Fund owns the security at the time it sells the option.  The income received by the Fund from selling the options will reduce any losses on the underlying securities, but only by the amount of the premiums.  The Fund generally intends to sell call options that are “out-of-the-money,” meaning that option exercise prices generally will be slightly higher than the current level of the index at the time the options are written. The options are typically written on equity, fixed income and commodity ETFs. If a call option becomes “in-the-money” prior to expiration, the portfolio manager determines whether the security should be allowed to be called away or the call option re-purchased and another “out-of-the-money” call option written based on the volatility of the underlying security and the time to expiration.


CLS actively manages the Fund's investments by increasing or decreasing the Fund’s investment in particular asset classes, sectors, regions and countries or using a hedging technique, based on its assessment of the opportunities for return relative to the risk using fundamental and technical analysis. When selecting Underlying Funds for investment, CLS considers the Underlying Fund’s investment goals and strategies, the investment adviser and portfolio manager, and past performance (absolute, relative and risk-adjusted). CLS may sell an investment if it determines that the asset class, sector, region or country is no longer desirable or if CLS believes that another Underlying Fund offers a better opportunity to achieve the Fund’s objective. CLS may sell an inverse ETF when it believes that the opportunities for the hedged investment have improved.  

Principal Risks of the Fund:

Many factors affect the Fund’s performance. The Fund's share price changes daily based on changes in market conditions in response to economic, political and financial developments. The direction and extent of those price changes will be affected by the financial condition, industry and economic sector, and geographic location of the securities in which the Fund and the Underlying Funds invest. The Fund is not federally insured or guaranteed by any government agency. YOU MAY LOSE MONEY BY INVESTING IN THE FUND.


Call Option Risk: When the Fund writes call options on its portfolio securities it limits its opportunity to profit and, consequently, the Fund could significantly underperform the market.


Debt Securities Risk: When the Fund invests in bonds or in Underlying Funds that own bonds, the value of your investment in the Fund will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Long-term bonds are generally more sensitive to interest rate changes than short-term bonds. Issuers of fixed-income securities may default on interest and principal payments. Generally, securities with lower debt ratings (“junk bonds”) have greater credit risk.


Foreign Securities Risk: Underlying Funds that are linked to foreign indexes may be riskier than U.S. investments because of factors such as unstable international political and economic conditions, currency fluctuations, foreign controls on investment and currency exchange, withholding taxes, a lack of adequate company information, less liquid and more volatile markets, and a lack of governmental regulation.  Foreign companies that comprise the foreign index generally are not subject to accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards comparable to those applicable to U.S. companies.  Transaction costs and costs associated with custody services are generally higher for foreign securities held by these Underlying Funds.  


Inverse Risk: The Fund engages in hedging activities by investing in inverse ETFs.  Inverse ETF’s may employ leverage, which magnifies the changes in the underlying stock index upon which they are based.  Any strategy that includes inverse securities could cause the Fund to suffer significant losses.


Management Risk: The ability of the Fund to meet its investment objective is directly related to the allocation of the Fund’s assets. CLS may allocate the Fund's investments so as to under-emphasize or over-emphasize investments under the wrong market conditions, in which case the Fund’s value may be adversely affected.


Market Risk:  Investments in securities in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. The Fund’s investments may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally, or particular countries, segments, economic sectors, industries or companies within those markets. The value of a security may decline due to general economic and market conditions that are not specifically related to a particular issuer.


Portfolio Turnover Risk:  Portfolio turnover refers to the rate at which the securities held by the Fund are replaced. The higher the rate, the higher the transactional and brokerage costs associated with the turnover which may reduce the Fund’s return, unless the securities traded can be bought and sold without corresponding commission costs.  


Smaller and Medium Issuer Risk: Investments in Underlying Funds that own small and medium capitalization companies and direct investments in individual small and medium capitalization companies may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic developments than investments in larger, more established organizations.


Underlying Funds Risk:  You will indirectly pay fees and expenses charged by the Underlying Funds in addition to the Fund’s direct fees and expenses. As a result, the cost of investing in the Fund will be higher than the cost of investing directly in Underlying Fund shares and may be higher than other mutual funds that invest directly in stocks and bonds. Each Underlying Fund is subject to specific risks, depending on the nature of the Underlying Fund. These risks could include sector risk (increased risk from a focus on one or more sectors of the market), as well as risks associated with fixed income securities, real estate investments, and commodities.

[2] After-tax returns are based on the highest historical individual federal marginal income tax rates, and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes; actual after-tax returns depend on an individual investor's tax situation and may differ from those shown. If you own shares of the Fund in a tax-deferred account, such as an individual retirement account or a 401(k) plan, this information is not applicable to your investment. A higher after-tax return results when a capital loss occurs upon redemption and translates into an assumed tax deduction that benefits the shareholder.
