The Fund's adviser has contractually agreed to waive its fees and/or reimburse expenses of the Fund, at least until December 31, 2016, to ensure that Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and Reimbursement (exclusive of any taxes, interest, brokerage commissions, dividend expense on securities sold short, acquired fund fees and expenses, or extraordinary expenses such as litigation or reorganization costs) will not exceed 0.20% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Institutional Class Shares of the Fund.  Additionally, the Fund's adviser has contractually agreed to waive its fees and/or reimburse expenses of the Fund, at least until December 31, 2016 to ensure that the daily yield will be at least zero for Institutional Class Shares of the Fund.  These fee waivers and expense reimbursements are subject to possible recoupment from the Fund in future years on a rolling three-year basis (within the three years after the fees have been waived or reimbursed) if such recoupment can be achieved within the foregoing expense limits.  These agreements may be terminated only by the Fund's Board of Trustees, on 60 days written notice to the Fund's adviser.


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:

Principal Investment Strategies:


As a fundamental policy, which cannot be changed without shareholder approval, the Fund invests only in:

·

U.S. Treasury obligations maturing in 397 days or less.

·

Repurchase agreements fully collateralized by U.S. Treasury obligations.


The Fund may invest in U.S. Treasury obligations or repurchase agreements without limit. Although the Fund intends to be fully invested in these instruments, it may hold a de minimis amount of cash for a short period prior to investment or payment of the proceeds of redemption.


The Fund will maintain an average maturity computed on a dollar-weighted basis of 60 days or less and a dollar-weighted average life of 120 days or less.


Principal Investment Risks:


Although the Fund invests in short-term Treasury obligations, an investment in the Fund is subject to risk even if all securities in the Fund are paid in full at maturity. All money market instruments, including U.S. Treasury obligations, can change in value in response to changes in interest rates, and a major change in rates could cause the share price to change. While U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, an investment in the Fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, U.S. government or any other government agency. Thus, while the Fund seeks to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share, there is no assurance that it will do so. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.  If the seller of a repurchase agreement in which the Fund invests defaults on its obligation or declares bankruptcy, the Fund may experience delays in selling the securities underlying the repurchase agreement. As a result, the Fund may incur losses arising from a decline in the value of those securities, reduced levels of income, and expenses of enforcing its rights.


Performance:


The following bar chart and tables below provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in the performance of the Institutional Class shares of the Fund from year to year and by showing how the Fund's average annual returns for one, five and ten years compare with those of a broad measure of market performance. Performance for the period prior to January 20, 2012 is that of the Treasury Obligations Portfolio, a series of The Milestone Funds, the predecessor of the Fund. Past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future.

Tax Information:  Dividends and capital gain distributions you receive from the Fund are taxable to you as either ordinary income or capital gains tax rates unless you are investing through a tax-free account.  However, these dividend and capital gain distributions may be taxable upon their eventual withdrawal from tax-deferred plans.


Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries:  If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services.  These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment.  Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's web site for more information.
