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 Class I Shares of 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 on 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 9% of
the average value of its portfolio.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests substantially all, but in no event
less than 80%, of its net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes in
stocks included in the S&P 500® Index. The Fund will provide shareholders with
at least 60 days' written notice before changing this 80% policy.

The S&P 500® Index is made up of common stocks of 500 large, publicly traded
companies. The vast majority of the Fund's assets will normally be invested in
stocks included in the S&P 500® Index in approximately the same relative
proportion as those stocks are held in the S&P 500® Index. The Fund does not,
however, simply invest in a portfolio that replicates the precise composition of
the S&P 500 Index, and PNC Capital Advisors, LLC (the "Adviser") does not
generally "manage" the Fund in the traditional sense (i.e., by using economic,
financial or market analysis). The Adviser believes that employing certain
active management strategies for a percentage of the Fund's assets, if
successful, may result in net returns after expenses that may more closely
approximate the returns of the S&P 500® Index. For example, the Adviser may
invest in S&P 500® Index futures in addition to or in place of S&P 500® Index
stocks to attempt to equal the performance of the S&P 500® Index. The Fund may
also invest in other S&P 500® Index derivatives with economic characteristics
similar to the common stocks in the S&P 500® Index. Under normal circumstances,
the notional amount of investments in derivatives will not exceed 20% of the
Fund's net assets. The Fund may use derivatives as a substitute for taking a
position in an underlying asset, to increase returns, to manage risk/volatility
or as part of a hedging strategy. Derivative instruments include, but are not
limited to, options, swaps, futures and options on futures.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
Derivatives Risk. Derivatives are financial instruments whose values depend
upon, or are derived from, the value of a reference asset, such as one or more
underlying assets, indexes or currencies and may include, but are not limited
to, options, swaps, futures and options on futures. A small investment in
derivatives could have a potentially large impact on the Fund's performance.
The use of derivatives involves risks different from the risks associated with
investing directly in the reference asset. Derivatives can be volatile, illiquid
and difficult to value, and an imperfect correlation may exist between changes
in the value of a derivative held by the Fund and the value of the reference
asset. Some derivatives are "leveraged" and therefore may magnify or otherwise
increase investment losses to the Fund. The Fund's use of derivatives may also
increase the amount of taxes payable by shareholders. In addition, there is also
the risk that a Fund may be unable to terminate or sell a derivatives position.
There is also the risk that derivative counterparties may suffer financial
difficulties and may not fulfill their contractual obligations to the Fund.
  
Market Risk. Market risk is the risk that securities prices will fall over short
or extended periods of time. Historically, the stock markets have moved in
cycles, and the value of the Fund's securities may fluctuate from day to day.
Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by
industry and/or economic trends and developments. The prices of securities
issued by such companies may decline in response.

Tracking Error Risk. The S&P 500 Index Fund's ability to replicate the
performance of the S&P 500® Index will depend to some extent on the size and
timing of cash flows into and out of the Fund, composition of the S&P 500 Index,
changes in the number of shares issued by the companies represented in the S&P
500 Index, the investment decisions made by the Adviser and on the level of the
Fund's expenses.

All investments are subject to inherent risks, and an investment in the Fund is
no exception. Your investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not
insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other
government agency. Accordingly, you may lose money by investing in the Fund.
PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
The bar chart and the performance table below provide some indication of the
risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in the performance of the
Fund's Class I Shares from year to year and by showing how the average annual
returns of the Fund's Class I Shares compare with those of a broad measure of
market performance. As with all mutual funds, the Fund's past performance
(before and after taxes) does not predict the Fund's future performance. Updated
information on the Fund's performance can be obtained by visiting

[1] After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor's tax situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts. In some cases, returns after taxes on distributions and sale of Fund shares may be higher than returns before taxes because the calculations assume the investor received a tax deduction for any loss incurred on the sale of shares.
