The information below, for periods prior to March 31, 2009, includes the past performance of the NPITC Equity&#13;Fund, a separate account managed by Institutional Advisors, a business unit of National Penn Investors Trust Company, the predecessor&#13;investment entity to the Adviser in a fashion that is in all material respects equivalent to the management of the Fund. The data&#13;below reflects NPITC Equity Fund&amp;#146;s performance information over a period before the Fund&amp;#146;s registration statement became&#13;effective. The relevant account was not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the &amp;#147;1940 Act&amp;#148;)&#13;and therefore was not subject to certain investment restrictions that are imposed by the 1940 Act; and if the relevant account&#13;was registered under the 1940 Act, its performance may have been adversely affected. The prior performance has been restated to&#13;reflect the imposition of the total expenses of the Fund for its initial fiscal year rather than the actual expenses of the NPITC&#13;Equity Fund.&lt;/p&gt;</rr:PerformanceNarrativeTextBlock>
