OBERWEIS EMERGING GROWTH FUND

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

The Oberweis Emerging Growth Fund’s investment objective is to maximize capital appreciation.

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.


Shareholder Fees
(Fees paid directly from your investments)

Redemption Fee as a percentage of amount redeemed within 90 calendar days of purchase			1.00%

Exchange Fee as a percentage of amount exchanged within 90 calendar days of purchase			1.00%

Annual Fund Operating Expenses
(Expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)

Management Fees			.84%

Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees			.25%

Other Expenses			.40%

Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses			1.49%

Example

The 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 on these assumptions your costs would be: One Year: $152 Three Years: $471 Five Years: $813 Ten Years: $1,779

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 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 95% of the average value of its portfolio.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in the securities of relatively small companies, which, at the time of investment, have a market capitalization of less than or equal to $1.5 billion or are within the range of companies represented in the MSCI ACWI Small-Cap Index, whichever is greater and meet the Oberweis Aperture investment criteria described below. The Fund invests principally in the common stocks of companies that the Fund’s investment adviser, Oberweis Asset Management, Inc. (“OAM”), believes have the potential for significant long-term growth in market value. The Fund may invest without limit in U.S. and non-U.S. companies. The non-U.S. companies in which the Fund invests may be securities of companies in developed or developing (or emerging) markets, including Chinese securities acquired through the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect, as well as equity-linked certificates (also called Participatory Notes) which are expected to provide the fund exposure to certain classes of shares traded in foreign markets which would otherwise not be available to the Fund. The Fund may invest in equity-linked certificates issued and/or guaranteed by counterparties rated A or better by Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s Corporation or issued and/or guaranteed by counterparties deemed to be of similar quality by OAM. Equity-linked certificates are derivative securities generally issued by banks or broker-dealers that are linked to the performance of an underlying foreign security. OAM anticipates that approximately 60% of the Fund’s assets will be invested in emerging countries outside the United States.

The Fund seeks to invest in up-and-coming companies which OAM believes have the potential for increasing profitability and accelerating growth. To identify these companies, OAM relies on an eight-stage stock selection filter based on key investment traits. Taken together, these eight criteria define the Oberweis Aperture.

The Oberweis Aperture allows OAM to discern those companies that it believes are experiencing superior growth and have the potential to continue doing so. OAM also believes that the Aperture helps it to buy these companies at reasonably attractive prices—valuations that do not yet fully reflect their earnings potential. OAM believes that the Aperture strategy, in short, deepens its insight and brings sharper focus to its stock selection process. In addition, OAM believes this approach can help it fine-tune

the Fund’s exposure to better manage the risks associated with investing in smaller-cap stocks.

Strong Revenue Growth

The Fund invests in companies with either rapid revenue growth or revenue growth that OAM believes will significantly exceed analysts’ estimates.

Strong Earnings Growth

The Fund invests in companies that OAM believes will grow profits much faster than analysts expect.

Sustainability

The Fund invests in sustainable businesses with a strong competitive position driven by niche market leadership, intellectual capital or unique manufacturing processes. Put another way, OAM looks for a high barrier to competitive entry.

Operating Leverage

The Fund invests in profitable and scalable business models, which tend to generate rising net profits margins as revenue growth accelerates.

Valuation

The Fund invests in businesses that OAM believes are significantly undervalued based on prices/earning to growth ratio calculations using OAM’s earnings estimates and growth forecasts.

Timely Catalyst

OAM looks for a recent positive earnings release or an earnings surprise that tangibly and quantitatively begins to confirm that analyst expectations are too low.

Inflection Point of Change

OAM looks for businesses at the inflection point of change—often from a new product, a new management team or a regulatory change—as OAM believes these changes can drive unexpected or underestimated growth. The Fund invests in firms with significant gaps between OAM’s forecasts and analyst expectations.

Limited Analyst Coverage

OAM looks for small- and mid-cap firms not widely followed by other analysts to maximize the chances of finding misunderstood situations.

economic and market conditions and the type of company being evaluated. No one factor will justify, and any one factor could rule out, an investment in a particular company.

PRINCIPAL RISKS

The biggest risk is that the Fund’s returns may vary, and you could lose money by investing in the Fund. Because the Fund may invest substantially all of its assets in common stocks, the main risk is that the value of the stocks it holds might decrease in response to the activities of an individual company or in response to general market and/or economic conditions. If this occurs, the Fund’s share price may also decrease.

The Fund is designed for long-term investors who seek growth of capital and who can tolerate the greater risks associated with seeking maximum capital appreciation. Investment in common stocks, particularly in common stocks of relatively small companies with high growth potential, can be volatile. The value of the Fund’s shares will go up and down due to movement of the overall stock market or of the value of the individual securities held by the Fund. Because of this volatility, we recommend that you invest in the Fund as a long-term investment only, and only for a portion of your investment portfolio, not for all of it. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s objective will be met.

Small-sized Company Risk

The Fund is subject to small company risk. Although the Fund seeks to reduce risk by investing in a diversified portfolio, you must realize that investing in smaller, and often newer, companies involves greater risk than there usually is with investing in larger, more established companies. Smaller and newer companies often have limited product lines, markets, management personnel, research and/or financial resources. The securities of small companies, which may be thinly capitalized, may not be as marketable as those of larger companies. Therefore the securities of these smaller, newer companies may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than the securities of larger companies or the market averages in general.

Risks Associated with Non-U.S. Companies

Investments by the Fund in the securities of non-U.S. issuers involve certain additional investment risks different from those of U.S. issuers. These risks include: possibility of political or economic instability of the country of issue, possibility of disruption to international trade patterns, possibility of currency risk, possibility of currency exchange controls, imposition of foreign withholding taxes, seizure or nationalization of foreign deposits or assets, and adoption of adverse foreign government trade restrictions. There may be less publicly available information about a non-U.S. company than about a U.S. company. Sometimes non-U.S. companies are subject to different accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards, practices and requirements than U.S. companies. There is generally less government regulation of stock exchanges, brokers and listed companies abroad than in the U.S., which may

result in less transparency with respect to a company’s operations. The absence of negotiated brokerage in certain countries may result in higher brokerage fees.

Emerging Market Risks

In addition to the risks associated with non-U.S. companies in developing or emerging markets, there is a possibility of expropriation, nationalization, confiscatory taxation or diplomatic developments that could affect investments in those countries. In addition, political and economic structures in emerging markets countries may be new and developing rapidly, which may cause instability. Emerging markets countries are also more likely to experience high levels of inflation, deflation or currency devaluations, which could hurt their economies and securities markets.

Equity-linked Certificates Risk

Equity-linked certificates (also called Participatory Notes) are generally subject to the same risks as the foreign equity securities or the basket foreign securities they are linked to. Upon the maturity of the certificate, the holder generally receives a return of principal based on the capital appreciation of the linked security. If the linked security declines in value, the certificate may return a lower amount at maturity. The trading price of an equity-linked certificate also depends on the value of the linked security. Equity-linked certificates involve further risks associated with:

•

purchases and sales of certificates, including the possibility that exchange rate fluctuations may negatively affect the value of a certificate,

•

the credit quality of the certificate’s issuer and/or guarantor, and

•

liquidity risks and restrictions on transferability.

Ratings of issuers or guarantors of equity-linked certificates refer only to the issuer or guarantor’s creditworthiness. They provide no indication of the potential risks of the linked securities.

RMB Currency Risk

The Fund may invest in Chinese securities acquired through the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect (“China Connect Securities”) with Renminbi (“RMB”), the official currency of China. Similar to other foreign currencies, the exchange rate of the RMB may rise or fall. There is no guarantee that the RMB will not depreciate. The exchange rate of the RMB may be affected by, among other things, foreign exchange controls imposed by the mainland Chinese central government from time to time (for example, there are currently restrictions on the conversion of the RMB into other currencies). The Fund may have to convert the dollar into RMB when investing in Chinese Connect Securities and vice versa for any payments in RMB from transactions in the China Connect Securities. The Fund may incur currency conversion costs (being the spread between buying and selling of the RMB) and subject to exchange rate fluctuation risks in any such currency conversion, which may adversely affect the market value of China Connect Securities.

Investment Style Risk

There is no assurance that the common stocks of companies selected using the “Oberweis Aperture” investment criteria will achieve long-term growth in market value.

FUND PERFORMANCE

The following bar chart and table provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing how the Fund’s performance has varied over time. Of course, the Fund’s past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how it will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available at www.oberweisfunds.com or by calling (800) 245-7311.

Annual Total Returns

LOGO

The table compares the Fund’s average annual returns for the periods indicated to broad-based securities market indices. The table also shows returns on a before and after tax basis. 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 your individual tax situation and may differ from those shown. The after-tax return information shown does not apply to Fund shares held through a tax-deferred account, such as a 401(k) plan or individual retirement account (“IRA”).

Average Annual Total Returns (for the Periods Ended December 31, 2014)


Oberweis Emerging Growth Fund	1 YEAR		5 YEARS		10 YEARS

Return Before Taxes		-8.75%		11.62%		2.68%

Return After Taxes on Distributions		-10.62%		11.16%		2.09%

Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares		-3.40%		9.28%		2.21%

MSCI ACWI Small Cap Index
(reflects no deduction for fees, expenses or taxes)*		1.78%		11.61%		8.17%

Russell 2000 Growth Index
(reflects no deduction for fees, expenses or taxes)		5.60%		16.80%		8.54%

Russell 2000 Index
(reflects no deduction for fees, expenses or taxes)		4.89%		15.55%		7.77%

*The MSCI ACWI Small Cap Index is replacing the Russell 2000 Growth Index and the Russell 2000 Index. OAM believes the MSCI ACWI Small Cap Index is a more appropriate benchmark index given the Emerging Growth Fund’s investment strategy of investing in U.S. and non-U.S. small-sized companies.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in the securities of very small companies which, at the time of purchase, have a market capitalization of less than or equal to $600 million or are within the range of companies represented in the Russell Micro-Cap Growth Index, whichever is greater and meet the Oberweis Aperture investment criteria described below. The Fund invests principally in the common stocks of companies that the Fund’s investment adviser, Oberweis Asset Management, Inc. (“OAM”), believes have the potential for significant long-term growth in market value.

Inflection Point of Change

Limited Analyst Coverage

OAM looks for small- and mid-cap firms not widely followed by other analysts to maximize the chances of finding misunderstood situations.

OAM considers these eight factors as guidelines for evaluating the many companies it reviews to identify those companies that have the potential for above-average long-term growth. Such factors and the relative weight given to each will vary with economic and market conditions and the type of company being evaluated. No one factor will justify, and any one factor could rule out, an investment in a particular company.

PRINCIPAL RISKS

The Fund is designed for long-term investors who seek growth of capital and who can tolerate the greater risks associated with seeking maximum capital appreciation. Investment in common stocks, particularly in common stocks of small companies with high growth potential, can be volatile. The value of the Fund’s shares will go up and down due to movement of the overall stock market or of the value of the individual securities held by the Fund. Because of this volatility, we recommend that you invest in the Fund as a long-term investment only, and only for a portion of your investment portfolio, not for all of it. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s objective will be met.

Small-sized Company Risk

Micro-Cap Risk

Small-sized company risk is intensified for the Fund. The prices of micro-cap companies are generally more volatile and their markets are less liquid relative to larger companies. An investment in the Fund may involve considerably more risk of loss and its returns may differ significantly from funds investing in larger companies.

Investment Style Risk

There is no assurance that the common stocks of companies selected using the “Oberweis Aperture” investment criteria will achieve long-term growth in market value.

Portfolio Turnover Risk

In the past, the Fund has experienced high rates of portfolio turnover, which results in above average transaction costs and the payment by shareholders of taxes on above-average amounts of realized investment gains, including net short-term capital gains, which are taxed as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in the securities of small-cap companies. The Fund’s investment adviser, Oberweis Asset Management, Inc. (“OAM”), considers small-cap companies as those with a market capitalization of less than $5 billion at the time of investment. The Fund invests principally in the common stocks of companies that OAM believes have the potential for significant long-term growth in market value.

The Fund seeks to invest in those companies which OAM considers to have above-average long-term growth potential. OAM selects companies which meet this criteria based on, among other things, fundamental analysis of individual securities, and many of the companies also meet certain of the Oberweis Aperture investment criteria described below. OAM’s fundamental analysis entails an evaluation of an individual company’s future growth prospects. OAM’s evaluation may be based on, among other things, financial statement analysis, stock valuation in relation to OAM’s estimate of future earnings, evaluation of competitive product or service offerings, future research and development pipeline and management interviews. OAM may actively trade the Fund’s portfolio, and as a result, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate may be high.

The “Oberweis Aperture” investment criteria include:

Strong Revenue Growth

The Fund invests in companies with either rapid revenue growth or revenue growth that OAM believes will significantly exceed analysts’ estimates.

Strong Earnings Growth

The Fund invests in companies that OAM believes will grow profits much faster than analysts expect.

Sustainability

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in securities of companies based outside the United States. Currently, securities based outside the United States include (1) equity securities of companies that are organized under other than U.S. law or that are primarily traded on an exchange or over-the-counter outside of the United States; or (2) equity securities of companies that have at least 50% of their assets outside of the United States or that derive at least 50% of their revenues from business activities outside of the United States.

The Fund seeks to invest in those companies which OAM considers to have above-average long-term growth potential. OAM selects companies which meet this criteria based on, among other things, fundamental analysis of individual securities. OAM’s fundamental analysis entails an evaluation of an individual company’s future growth prospects. OAM’s evaluation may be based on, among other things, financial statement analysis, stock valuation in relation to OAM’s estimate of future earnings, evaluation of competitive product or service offerings, future research and development pipeline and management interviews. OAM may actively trade the Fund’s portfolio, and as a result, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate may be high. There are no restrictions on the capitalization of companies whose securities the Fund may buy; however, the Fund generally invests in the stocks of smaller companies (generally companies with a market capitalization of less than $5 billion). The Fund may also invest in securities of countries in developed and developing (or emerging) markets. The Fund generally will invest less than 25% of its assets in securities of countries in emerging markets.

PRINCIPAL RISKS

The Fund is designed for long-term investors who seek growth of capital and who can tolerate the greater risks associated with seeking maximum capital appreciation. Investment in common stocks, particularly in common stocks of small- and medium-sized companies with high growth potential, can be volatile. The value of the Fund’s shares will go up and down due to movement of the overall stock market or of the value of the individual securities held by the Fund. Because of this volatility, we recommend that you invest in the Fund as a long-term investment only, and only for a portion of your investment portfolio, not for all of it. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s objective will be met.

Small-sized Company Risk

The Fund is subject to small company risk, because although there are no restrictions on the capitalization of companies whose securities the Fund may buy, the Fund generally invests in small-sized companies. Although the Fund seeks to reduce risk by investing in a diversified portfolio, you must realize that investing in smaller, and often newer, companies involves greater risk than there usually is with investing in larger, more established companies. Smaller and newer companies often have limited product lines, markets, management personnel, research and/or financial resources. The securities of small companies, which may be thinly capitalized, may not be as marketable as those of larger companies. Therefore the securities of these smaller, newer companies may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than the securities of larger companies or the market averages in general.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in China securities. Currently, China securities include 1) equity securities of companies that are organized under the laws of The People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong or Taiwan or that are primarily traded on an exchange or over-the-counter in The People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong or Taiwan; or 2) equity securities of companies that have at least 50% of their assets in The People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong or Taiwan or that derive at least 50% of their revenues from business activities in The People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong or Taiwan (collectively, referred to as “China”) but which are listed and traded elsewhere.

The Fund invests principally in the common stocks of companies that the Fund’s investment adviser, Oberweis Asset Management, Inc. (“OAM”), believes have the potential for significant long-term growth in market value. The Fund may invest in Chinese securities acquired through the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect, as well as equity-linked certificates (also called Participatory Notes) which are expected to provide the fund exposure to certain classes of shares traded in foreign markets which would otherwise not be available to the Fund. The Fund may invest in equity-linked certificates issued and/or guaranteed by counterparties rated A or better by Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s Corporation or issued and/or guaranteed by counterparties deemed to be of similar quality by OAM. Equity-linked certificates are derivative securities generally issued by banks or broker-dealers that are linked to the performance of an underlying foreign security. The Fund may invest in equity-linked certificates linked to the performance of foreign securities in countries in which the Fund may invest, including but not limited to China. For purposes of the Fund’s 80% investment policy, equity-linked certificates linked to the performance of China securities are considered China securities.

The Fund seeks to invest in those companies which OAM considers to have above-average long-term growth potential. OAM selects companies which meet this criteria based on, among other things, fundamental analysis of individual securities, and many of the companies also meet certain of the Oberweis Aperture investment criteria described below. OAM’s fundamental analysis entails an evaluation of an individual company’s future growth prospects. OAM’s evaluation may be based on, among other things, financial statement analysis, stock valuation in relation to the OAM’s estimate

of future earnings, evaluation of competitive product or service offerings, future research and development pipeline and management interviews. OAM may actively trade the Fund’s portfolio, and as a result, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate may be high. There are no restrictions on the capitalization of companies whose securities the Fund may buy; however, the Fund generally invests in the stocks of smaller companies (generally companies with a market capitalization of less than $5 billion).

The “Oberweis Aperture” investment criteria include:

Strong Revenue Growth

The Fund invests in companies with either rapid revenue growth or revenue growth that OAM believes will significantly exceed analysts’ estimates.

Strong Earnings Growth

The Fund invests in companies that OAM believes will grow profits much faster than analysts expect.

Sustainability

Operating Leverage

The Fund invests in profitable and scalable business models, which tend to generate rising net profits margins as revenue growth accelerates.

Valuation

The Fund invests in businesses that OAM believes are significantly undervalued based on prices/earning to growth ratio calculations using OAM’s earnings estimates and growth forecasts.

Timely Catalyst

OAM looks for a recent positive earnings release or an earnings surprise that tangibly and quantitatively begins to confirm that analyst expectations are too low.

Inflection Point of Change

Limited Analyst Coverage

OAM looks for small- and mid-cap firms not widely followed by other analysts to maximize the chances of finding misunderstood situations.

PRINCIPAL RISKS

The Fund is designed for long-term investors who seek growth of capital and who can tolerate the greater risks associated with seeking maximum capital appreciation. Investment in common stocks, particularly in common stocks of small- and medium-sized companies with high growth potential, can be volatile. The value of the Fund’s shares will go up and down due to movement of the overall stock market or of the value of the individual securities held by the Fund. Because of this volatility, we recommend that you invest in the Fund as a long-term investment only, and only for a portion of your investment portfolio, not for all of it. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s objective will be met.

Small-sized Company Risk

Risks Associated with Non-U.S. Companies

different accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards, practices and requirements than U.S. companies. There is generally less government regulation of stock exchanges, brokers and listed companies abroad than in the U.S., which may result in less transparency with respect to a company’s operations. The absence of negotiated brokerage in certain countries may result in higher brokerage fees.

Emerging Market Risks

Risks Associated with Chinese Companies

The Chinese economy is generally considered an emerging and volatile market. A small number of companies represent a large portion of the China market as a whole, and prices for securities of these companies may be very sensitive to adverse political, economic, or regulatory developments in China and other Asian countries, and may experience significant losses in such conditions. China’s central government has historically exercised substantial control over the Chinese economy through administrative regulation and/or state ownership.

Despite economic reforms that have resulted in less direct central and local government control over Chinese businesses, actions of the Chinese central and local government authorities continue to have a substantial effect on economic conditions in China. These activities, which may include central planning, partial state ownership of or government actions designed to substantially influence certain Chinese industries, market sectors or particular Chinese companies, may adversely affect the public and private sector companies in which a Fund invests. Government actions may also affect the economic prospects for, and the market prices and liquidity of, the securities of China companies and the payments of dividends and interest by China companies. In addition, currency fluctuations, monetary policies, competition, social instability or political unrest may adversely affect economic growth in China. The Chinese economy and Chinese companies may also be adversely affected by regional security threats, as well as adverse developments in Chinese trade policies, or in trade policies toward China by countries that are trading partners with China.

Government Relationships Risk

of terrorism by the U.S. government, or governments that otherwise have policies in conflict with the U.S. government (an “Adverse Government”). If the Fund invests in companies that have or develop a material business relationship with an Adverse Government, then the Fund will be subject to the risk that these companies’ reputation and price in the market will be adversely affected.

Equity-linked Certificates Risk

Equity-linked certificates (also called Participatory Notes) are generally subject to the same risks as the foreign equity securities or the basket foreign securities thy are linked to. Upon the maturity of the certificate, the holder generally receives a return of principal based on the capital appreciation of the linked security. If the linked security declines in value, the certificate may return a lower amount at maturity. The trading price of an equity-linked certificate also depends on the value of the linked security. Equity-linked certificates involve further risks associated with:

•

purchases and sales of certificates, including the possibility that exchange rate fluctuations may negatively affect the value of a certificate,

•

the credit quality of the certificate’s issuer and/or guarantor, and

•

liquidity risks and restrictions on transferability.

Ratings of issuers or guarantors of equity-linked certificates refer only to the issuer or guarantor’s creditworthiness. They provide no indication of the potential risks of the linked securities.

RMB Currency Risk

Geographic Concentration Risk

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in Asia securities. Currently, Asia securities include (1) equity securities of companies that are organized under the laws of a country located in Asia or that are primarily traded on an exchange or over-the-counter in Asia; or (2) equity securities of companies that have at least 50% of their assets in Asia or that derive at least 50% of their revenues from business activities in Asia but which are listed and traded elsewhere.

The Fund invests principally in the common stocks of companies that the Fund’s investment adviser, Oberweis Asset Management, Inc.

Equity-linked certificates are derivative securities generally issued by banks or broker-dealers that are linked to the performance of an underlying foreign security. The Fund may invest in equity-linked certificates linked to the performance of foreign securities in countries in which the Fund may invest, including but not limited to China and to a lesser extent, India. For purposes of the Fund’s 80% investment policy, equity-linked certificates linked to the performance of Asia securities are considered Asia securities.

prospects. OAM’s evaluation may be based on, among other things, financial statement analysis, stock valuation in relation to OAM’s estimate of future earnings, evaluation of competitive product or service offerings, future research and development pipeline and management interviews. OAM may actively trade the Fund’s portfolio, and as a result, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate may be high. There are no restrictions on the capitalization of companies whose securities the Fund may buy; however, the Fund generally invests in the stocks of smaller companies (generally companies with a market capitalization of less than $5 billion). The Fund may also invest in securities of countries in developed and developing (or emerging) markets.

PRINCIPAL RISKS

The Fund is designed for long-term investors who seek growth of capital and who can tolerate the greater risks associated with seeking maximum capital appreciation. Investment in common stocks, particularly in common stocks of small- and medium-sized companies with high growth potential, can be volatile. The value of the Fund’s shares will go up and down due to movement of the overall stock market or of the value of the individual securities held by the Fund. Because of this volatility, we recommend that you invest in the Fund as a long-term investment only, and only for a portion of your investment portfolio, not for all of it. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s objective will be met.

Small-sized Company Risk

Risks Associated with Non-U.S. Companies

international trade patterns, possibility of currency risk, possibility of currency exchange controls, imposition of foreign withholding taxes, seizure or nationalization of foreign deposits or assets, and adoption of adverse foreign government trade restrictions. There may be less publicly available information about an Asian company than about a U.S. company. Sometimes Asian companies are subject to different accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards, practices and requirements than U.S. companies. There is generally less government regulation of stock exchanges, brokers and listed companies abroad than in the U.S., which may result in less transparency with respect to a company’s operations. The absence of negotiated brokerage in certain countries may result in higher brokerage fees.

Emerging Market Risks

Geographic Concentration Risk

Investments in a single region, even though representing more than one country within the region, may be affected by common economic forces and other factors. This vulnerability to factors affecting Asia investments is significantly greater than it would be for a more geographically diversified fund, and may result in greater losses and volatility. This risk increases to the extent the Fund focuses on issuers in a limited number of countries in Asia.

Government Relationships Risk

While companies in Asia may be subject to limitations on their business relationships under applicable law, these laws may not be consistent with certain political and security concerns of the U.S. As a result, Asian companies may have material direct or indirect business relationships with governments that are considered state sponsors of terrorism by the U.S. government, or governments that otherwise have policies in conflict with the U.S. government (an “Adverse Government”). If the Fund invests in companies that have or develop a material business relationship with an Adverse Government, then the Fund will be subject to the risk that these companies’ reputation and price in the market will be adversely affected.

Equity-linked Certificates Risk

The trading price of an equity-linked certificate also depends on the value of the linked security. Equity-linked certificates involve further risks associated with:

INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUNDS

Buying and Selling Fund Shares

The minimum initial investment is $1,000 ($500 for tax-advantaged retirement plans). You may reduce this $1,000 minimum initial investment by signing up for the Low Minimum Investment Plan. (See page 67 for details.)

You may redeem shares of the Funds by mail, telephone, online at www.oberweisfunds.com or through your own securities broker/dealer or its designated agent or bank or other institution on any day the New York Stock Exchange is open.

Tax Information

Each Fund’s distributions are taxable as ordinary income or capital gains, unless your investment is in an IRA, 401(k) or other tax-advantaged investment plan (which may be taxable upon withdrawal).

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase shares of the Funds through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Funds and their 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 financial intermediary to recommend the Funds over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s Web site for more information.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, POLICIES AND RISKS

Investment Objectives of the Funds

Each of the Emerging Growth, Micro-Cap and Small-Cap Opportunities Fund’s investment objective is to maximize capital appreciation. Each of the International Opportunities, China Opportunities and Asia Opportunities Fund’s investment objective is to maximize long-term capital appreciation. The Funds are not designed for investors seeking income over capital appreciation. Income realized on the Funds’ investments is incidental to their objectives.

The Emerging Growth Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in the securities of relatively small companies, which, at the time of investment, have a market capitalization of less than or equal to $1.5 billion or are within the range of companies represented in the MSCI ACWI Small-Cap Index, whichever is greater and meet the Oberweis Aperture investment criteria described below.

The Micro-Cap Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in the securities of very small companies which, at the time of purchase, have a market capitalization of less than or equal to $600 million or are within the range of companies represented in the Russell Micro-Cap Growth Index, whichever is greater.

The Small-Cap Opportunities Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in the securities of small-cap companies. The investment adviser, Oberweis Asset Management, Inc. (“OAM”), considers small-cap companies as those with a market capitalization of less than $5 billion at the time of investment.

The International Opportunities Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in the securities of companies based outside the United States (as defined on page 21).

The China Opportunities Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in China securities (as defined on page 27).

The Asia Opportunities Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in Asia securities (as defined on page 35).

Principal Investment Strategy of the Domestic Funds

Each of the Micro-Cap and Small-Cap Opportunities Funds (each, a “Domestic Fund” and collectively, the “Domestic Funds”) invest principally in the common stocks of companies that OAM believes have the potential for long-term growth in market value.

The Micro-Cap Fund seeks to invest in those companies which OAM considers to have above-average long-term growth potential based on its analysis of eight factors, which OAM calls the “Oberweis Aperture.”

OAM selects companies which meet this criteria based on, among other things, fundamental analysis of individual securities, and many of the companies also meet certain of the Oberweis Aperture investment criteria described below. OAM’s fundamental analysis entails an evaluation of an individual company’s future growth prospects. OAM’s evaluation may be based on, among other things, financial statement analysis, stock valuation in relation to OAM’s estimate of future earnings, evaluation of competitive product or service offerings, future research and development pipeline and management interviews. The eight factors are:

Strong Revenue Growth

The Fund invests in companies with either rapid revenue growth or revenue growth that OAM believes will significantly exceed analysts’ estimates.

Strong Earnings Growth

The Fund invests in companies that OAM believes will grow profits much faster than analysts expect.

Sustainability

Operating Leverage

The Fund invests in profitable and scalable business models, which tend to generate rising net profits margins as revenue growth accelerates.

Valuation

The Fund invests in businesses that OAM believes are significantly undervalued based on prices/earning to growth ratio calculations using OAM’s earnings estimates and growth forecasts.

Timely Catalyst

OAM looks for a recent positive earnings release or an earnings surprise that tangibly and quantitatively begins to confirm that analyst expectations are too low.

Inflection Point of Change

Limited Analyst Coverage

OAM looks for small- and mid-cap firms not widely followed by other analysts to maximize the chances of finding misunderstood situations.

The Small-Cap Opportunities Fund seeks to invest in those companies which OAM considers to have above-average long-term growth potential. OAM selects companies which meet this criteria based on, among other things, fundamental analysis of individual securities, and many of the companies also meet certain of the Oberweis Aperture investment criteria described above. OAM’s fundamental analysis entails an evaluation of an individual company’s future growth prospects. OAM’s evaluation may be based on, among other things, financial statement analysis, stock valuation in relation to OAM’s estimate of future earnings, evaluation of competitive product or service offerings, future research and development pipeline and management interviews.

Although securities of a particular company may be eligible for purchase by more than one Fund, OAM may determine at any particular time to purchase a security for one Fund but not another.

Principal Risks of Investing in the Domestic Funds

The biggest risk is that the Funds’ returns may vary, and you could lose money by investing in the Funds. Because the Funds may invest substantially all of their assets in common stocks, the main risk is that the value of the stocks they hold might decrease in response to the activities of an individual company or in response to general market and/or economic conditions. If this occurs, a Fund’s share price may also decrease.

The Funds primarily invest in equity securities with the objective of maximum capital appreciation. If you are considering investing in any of the Funds, remember that they are designed for long-term investors who seek growth of capital and who can tolerate the greater risks associated with seeking maximum capital appreciation. Investment in common stocks, particularly in common stocks of small- and medium-size companies with high growth potential, can be volatile. The value of the Funds’ shares will go up and down due to movement of the overall stock market or of the value of the individual securities held by the Funds. Because of this volatility, we recommend that you invest in the Funds as a long-term investment only, and only for a portion of your investment portfolio, not for all of it. Each Fund discourages short-term trading in its shares. Dividends are expected to be minimal and there can be no assurance that a Fund’s objective will be met.

An investment in the Funds is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

Small-sized Company Risk

The Small-Cap Opportunities Fund is subject to small company risk, and this risk is intensified for the Micro-Cap Fund. Although each Fund seeks to reduce risk by investing in a diversified portfolio, you must realize that investing in smaller, and often newer, companies involves greater risk than there usually is with investing in larger, more established companies. Smaller and newer companies often have limited product lines, markets, management personnel, research and/or financial resources. The securities of small companies, which may be thinly capitalized, may not be as marketable as those of larger companies. Therefore the securities of these smaller, newer companies may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than the securities of larger companies or the market averages in general.

Investment Style Risk

For the Micro-Cap Fund, there is no assurance that the common stocks of companies selected using the “Oberweis Aperture” investment criteria will achieve long-term growth in market value.

Principal Investment Strategy of the Emerging Growth Fund

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in the securities of relatively small companies, which, at the time of investment, have a

market capitalization of less than or equal to $1.5 billion or are within the range of companies represented in the MSCI ACWI Small-Cap Index, whichever is greater and meet the Oberweis Aperture investment criteria described below. The Fund invests principally in the common stocks of companies that the Fund’s investment adviser, Oberweis Asset Management, Inc. (“OAM”), believes have the potential for significant long-term growth in market value. The Fund may invest without limit in U.S. and non-U.S. companies. The non-U.S. companies in which the Fund invests may be securities of companies in developed or developing (or emerging) markets, including Chinese securities acquired through the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect. OAM anticipates that approximately 60% of the Fund’s assets will be invested in emerging countries outside the United States.

Strong Revenue Growth

The Fund invests in companies with either rapid revenue growth or revenue growth that OAM believes will significantly exceed analysts’ estimates.

Strong Earnings Growth

The Fund invests in companies that OAM believes will grow profits much faster than analysts expect.

Sustainability

Operating Leverage

The Fund invests in profitable and scalable business models, which tend to generate rising net profits margins as revenue growth accelerates.

Valuation

The Fund invests in businesses that OAM believes are significantly undervalued based on prices/earning to growth ratio calculations using OAM’s earnings estimates and growth forecasts.

Timely Catalyst

OAM looks for a recent positive earnings release or an earnings surprise that tangibly and quantitatively begins to confirm that analyst expectations are too low.

Therefore the securities of these smaller, newer companies may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than the securities of larger companies or the market averages in general.

Risks Associated with Non-U.S. Companies

Investments by the Fund in the securities of non-U.S. issuers involve certain additional investment risks different from those of U.S. issuers. These risks include: possibility of political or economic instability of the country of issue, possibility of disruption to international trade patterns, possibility of currency risk, possibility of currency exchange controls, imposition of foreign withholding taxes, seizure or nationalization of foreign deposits or assets, and adoption of adverse foreign government trade restrictions. There may be less publicly available information about a non-U.S. company than about a U.S. company.

There is no assurance that the common stocks of companies selected using the “Oberweis Octagon” investment criteria will achieve long-term growth in market value.

Principal Investment Strategy of the International Funds

Each of the International Opportunities, China Opportunities and Asia Opportunities Fund (each, an “International Fund” and collectively, the “International Funds”) invests principally in the common stocks of companies that OAM believes have the potential for significant long-term growth in market value.

The International Opportunities Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in the securities of companies based outside the United States.

The China Opportunities Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in China securities.

The Asia Opportunities Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in Asia securities.

Each International Fund seeks to invest in those companies which OAM considers to have above-average long-term growth potential. OAM selects companies which meet this criteria based on, among other things, fundamental analysis of individual securities, and for the Emerging Growth, China Opportunities and Asia Opportunities Funds, many of the companies also meet certain of the Oberweis Aperture investment criteria described above. OAM’s fundamental analysis entails an evaluation of an individual company’s future growth prospects. OAM’s evaluation may be based on, among other things, financial statement analysis, stock valuation in relation to OAM’s estimate of future earnings, evaluation of competitive product or service offerings, future research and development pipeline and management interviews. OAM may actively trade the Funds’ portfolios, and as a result, the Funds’ portfolio turnover rates may be high. There are no restrictions on the capitalization of companies whose

securities the Funds may buy; however, the Funds generally invest in the stocks of smaller companies. OAM generally considers companies with a market capitalization of less than $5 billion as small size companies.

Although securities of a particular company may be eligible for purchase by more than one Fund, OAM may determine at any particular time to purchase a security for one Fund but not another.

Principal Risks of Investing in the International Funds

An investment in the Funds is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

Small-sized Company Risk

Although each Fund seeks to reduce risk by investing in a diversified portfolio, you must realize that investing in smaller, and often newer, companies involves greater risk than there usually is with investing in larger, more established companies. Smaller and newer companies often have limited product lines, markets, management personnel, research and/or financial resources. The securities of small companies, which may be thinly capitalized, may not be as marketable as those of larger companies. Therefore the securities of these smaller, newer companies may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than the securities of larger companies or the market averages in general.

The Funds are subject to small-sized company risk, because although there are no restrictions on the capitalization of companies whose securities the Funds may buy, the Funds generally invest in small-sized companies.

Risks Associated with Non-U.S. Companies

Investments by the Funds in the securities of non-U.S. issuers involve certain additional investment risks different from those of U.S. issuers. These risks include: possibility of political or economic instability of the country of issue, possibility of disruption to international trade patterns, possibility of currency risk, possibility of currency exchange controls, imposition of foreign withholding taxes, seizure or nationalization of foreign deposits or assets, and adoption of adverse foreign government trade restrictions. There may be less publicly available information about a non-U.S. company than about a U.S. company. Sometimes non-U.S. companies are subject to different accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards, practices, and requirements than U.S. companies. There is generally less government regulation of stock exchanges, brokers and listed companies abroad than in the U.S., which may result in less transparency with respect to a company’s operations. The absence of negotiated brokerage in certain countries may result in higher brokerage fees.

Emerging Market Risks

Geographic Concentration in China (China Opportunities Fund and Investments by International Opportunities and Asia Opportunities Funds in China)

Chinese economy and Chinese companies may also be adversely affected by regional security threats, as well as adverse developments in Chinese trade policies, or in trade policies toward China by countries that are trading partners with China.

RMB Currency Risk

The Funds may invest in Chinese securities acquired through the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect (“China Connect Securities”) with Renminbi (“RMB”), the official currency of China. Similar to other foreign currencies, the exchange rate of the RMB may rise or fall. There is no guarantee that the RMB will not depreciate. The exchange rate of the RMB may be affected by, among other things, foreign exchange controls imposed by the mainland Chinese central government from time to time (for example, there are currently restrictions on the conversion of the RMB into other currencies). The Funds may have to convert the dollar into RMB when investing in Chinese Connect Securities and vice versa for any payments in RMB from transactions in the China Connect Securities. The Funds may incur currency conversion costs (being the spread between buying and selling of the RMB) and subject to exchange rate fluctuation risks in any such currency conversion, which may adversely affect the market value of China Connect Securities.

Government Relationships Risk

While companies in Asia may be subject to limitations on their business relationships under applicable law, these laws may not be consistent with certain political and security concerns of the U.S. As a result, Asian companies may have material direct or indirect business relationships with governments that are considered state sponsors of terrorism by the U.S. government, or governments that otherwise have policies in conflict with the U.S. government (an “Adverse Government”). If a Fund invests in companies that have or develop a material business relationship with an Adverse Government, then the Fund will be subject to the risk that these companies’ reputation and price in the market will be adversely affected.

Other Investment Policies and Risks

Although each of the Funds may invest substantially all of its assets in common stocks, each Fund may also invest in convertible securities, preferred stocks, securities of foreign issuers (most of which, for the Oberweis Micro-Cap and the Oberweis Small-Cap Opportunities Funds, are traded on United States stock exchanges or listed on NASDAQ) and restricted securities. In addition, each Fund may establish and maintain reserves for temporary defensive purposes or to enable it to take advantage of buying opportunities. Each Fund’s reserves may be held in cash or invested in high quality money market instruments. The Funds may also lend their portfolio securities, write (sell) call options against investment positions and purchase put and call options.

Foreign Securities

Investments in foreign securities may involve greater risks than investments in domestic securities. Foreign securities tend to be more volatile than domestic securities due to a number of factors, including fluctuations in currency exchange rates; political, social or economic instability; and less stringent accounting, disclosure and financial reporting requirements in some countries. The International Funds primarily invest in foreign securities and the Emerging Growth Fund invests in foreign securities, and the associated risks of such investment are discussed in the Summary of the Emerging Growth and International Funds. While investment in foreign companies is not a current focus of the Domestic Funds, each Domestic Fund may invest to a limited extent in foreign equity and debt securities.

Restricted Securities and Illiquid Securities

Each of the Domestic Funds and the Emerging Growth Fund may invest up to 5% of its total assets in securities that are not readily marketable. These include repurchase agreements with maturities of seven days or more, and securities of unseasoned issuers that have been in continuous operation for less than three years. Each Domestic Fund and the Emerging Growth Fund also may invest up to 5% of its total assets in securities where resale is legally or contractually restricted (all of which are collectively referred to as “restricted securities”); provided, however, that the Fund’s investments in illiquid securities do not exceed 15% of its net assets. Each of the International Funds may invest up to 15% of its net assets in securities that are not readily marketable, including restricted securities and equity-linked certificates. The sale of restricted securities often takes more time than more liquid securities and may result in higher selling expenses. Also, a Fund may have to dispose of restricted securities at less desirable prices or at prices lower than the Fund valued the securities. A Fund may resell restricted securities to other institutions. If there is a dealer or institutional trading market in such securities, restricted securities and equity-linked certificates may be treated as exempt from each Fund’s limitation on illiquid securities.

Temporary Defensive Investments

To respond to adverse market, political or other conditions, a Fund’s cash or other similar investments may increase from time to time. When OAM temporarily increases a Fund’s cash position, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective. Securities that the Funds may invest in as a means of receiving a return on idle cash include U.S. government obligations, certificates of deposit, commercial paper (rated prime 3 or better by Moody’s Investor Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or the equivalent), corporate debt securities (rated A or better by Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s Corporation) and repurchase agreements.

When a Fund’s investments in cash or similar investments increase, it may not participate in market advances or declines to the same extent that it would if the Fund remained more fully invested in stocks.

Repurchase Agreements

As a means of earning income on idle cash, each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements. This technique involves the purchase of a security by a Fund and a simultaneous agreement by the seller (generally a bank or dealer) to repurchase the security from the Fund at a specified date or upon demand. These securities involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, a Fund will bear the risk of market value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. A Fund cannot enter into repurchase agreements in excess of 25% of its total assets and each of the Domestic Funds and the Emerging Growth Fund cannot invest more than 5% of its total assets in repurchase agreements with maturities of seven days or more. Each of the International Funds cannot invest in repurchase agreements with maturities of seven days or more if, taken together with all other illiquid securities in the Fund’s portfolio, more than 15% of the Fund’s net assets would be invested in illiquid securities.

Lending of Fund Securities

To generate additional income, each Fund may lend its portfolio securities to qualified brokers/dealers or institutional investors. Such loans may not exceed 30% of the Fund’s total assets measured at the time of the most recent loan. For each loan, the borrower must maintain collateral at the Fund’s custodian with a value at least equal to 100% of the current market value of the security loaned.

Options

Each Fund may buy put and call options on stocks and stock indices. An option on a security is a contract that gives the buyer of the option the right to buy or sell a specific security at a stated price during the option’s term. An option on a securities index is a contract that gives the buyer of the option the right to receive cash from the seller in an amount equal to the difference between the index’s closing price and the option’s exercise price. Options are considered “derivative” securities and are generally used to hedge a portfolio against certain market risks, but they may also be used to increase returns. Using options may decrease returns and increase volatility.

A Fund may invest up to 5% of its assets in the purchase of put and call options. Each Fund may also write (sell) covered call options on its Fund securities. The total market value of the underlying securities of covered call options is limited to 50% of the Fund’s net assets.

Although securities of a particular company may be eligible for purchase by more than one Fund, OAM may determine that at any particular time it is appropriate to purchase a security for one Fund but not another. In addition, OAM may make transactions in a particular security at different times and different prices for each Fund.

Management Expenses

As compensation for its investment advisory services, the Domestic Funds and the Emerging Growth Fund pay OAM pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement an annual fee which is computed and accrued daily and paid monthly. OAM receives

annual fees of .60% of the average daily net assets of the Micro-Cap Fund, .45% of the average daily net assets of the Emerging Growth Fund on the first $50 million and .40% on amounts over $50 million and .40% of the average daily net assets of the Small-Cap Opportunities Fund.

As compensation for managing the business affairs and providing certain administrative services, the Micro-Cap, Emerging Growth and Small-Cap Opportunities Funds pay OAM pursuant to the Management Agreement. Each of the Micro-Cap, Emerging Growth and Small-Cap Opportunities Fund pays OAM a monthly management fee at the annual rate of .40% of the average daily net assets of the Fund, subject to reduction because of each Fund’s annual expense limitation.

As compensation for its investment advisory services, for managing the business affairs and providing certain administrative services, each of the International Funds pay OAM pursuant to Investment Advisory and Management Agreements an annual fee which is computed and accrued daily and paid monthly. OAM receives 1.25% of the average daily net assets of each of the International Funds, subject to reduction because of the Fund’s annual expense limitation.

A discussion regarding the basis for the Board of Trustees’ approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement for the Emerging Growth, Micro-Cap and Small-Cap Opportunities Funds and the Investment Advisory and Management Agreement for the International Opportunities, China Opportunities and Asia Opportunities Funds is available in the Funds’ annual report to shareholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

Each Fund also incurs expenses for services not provided and expenses not assumed by OAM, such as transfer agent and custodian fees and expenses, legal and auditing fees, printing and mailing costs of sending prospectuses, shareholder reports and other information to existing shareholders, and independent Trustees’ fees and expenses. The Annual Fund Operating Expenses table lists the actual advisory and management fees and total operating expenses for each Fund for the most recent fiscal year.

Distribution of Shares

The Funds have appointed OSI to act as the principal distributor of the Funds’ shares and as a shareholder service agent. The Funds pay certain expenses in connection with the distribution of shares of each Fund under a Rule 12b-1 Plan and a Distribution and Shareholder Service Agreement between the Funds and OSI (collectively called the “Plan and Agreement”) adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

Under the Plan and Agreement, each Fund pays to OSI a monthly fee at an annual rate of .25% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for distribution and shareholder servicing and will also reimburse certain out-of-pocket expenses of OSI for certain shareholder services provided to the Fund. Because the fee is continually paid out of the Funds’ assets, over time it will increase the cost of your investment and could potentially cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.

Pursuant to the Plan and Agreement, OSI may appoint various broker/dealer firms to assist in providing distribution services for the Funds and may appoint broker/dealers and other firms (including depository institutions such as commercial banks and savings banks) to provide administrative services for their clients as shareholders of the Funds under related service agreements.

OTHER INFORMATION

In the future, any of the Funds may cease sales to new investors and/or existing shareholders to control asset levels. If sales of a Fund are discontinued, it is expected that existing shareholders of the Fund would be permitted to reinvest any dividends or capital gain distributions in additional shares of the Fund, absent highly unusual circumstances.

SHAREHOLDER INFORMATION

How to Purchase Shares

In General

Except as described below, the minimum initial investment for each Fund is $1,000 ($500 minimum initial investment per Fund for tax-advantaged retirement plans). You may reduce this $1,000 minimum initial investment by signing up for the Low Minimum Investment Plan. (See “Shareholder Services.”) Additional purchases for all existing accounts must be in amounts of at least $100, except for reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions. The Funds reserve the right to change at any time the initial or subsequent investment minimums, to waive the initial or subsequent investment minimums, to withdraw the offering or to reject any purchase in whole or part.

You may purchase shares of the Funds directly through OSI or through a securities broker/dealer or its designated agent, through a bank or other institution having a sales agreement with OSI, or by contacting the Funds’ Transfer Agent, UMB Fund Services, Inc. (“UMBFS”). Some broker/dealers, banks or other institutions may independently impose different minimum investment amounts for purchases by their customers and/or charge for their services in purchasing shares of the Funds.

Your purchase may be made by check, wire, via Automated Clearing House (ACH) through the Funds’ Web site, or, if it is a subsequent purchase, through the Automatic Investment Plan. All purchases must be in U.S. dollars. Third-party checks, except those not exceeding $10,000 and payable to an existing shareholder who is an individual (as opposed to, e.g., a corporation or partnership), credit cards and cash will not be accepted.

You may, subject to the approval of the Funds, purchase shares of a Fund in securities that are eligible for purchase by the Fund and that have values that are readily ascertainable in accordance with the Funds’ valuation policies.

Purchase by Mail

To make an initial purchase by mail, you must complete and sign the Account Application and mail it along with a check made payable to The Oberweis Funds to the following address:

By First Class Mail

The Oberweis Funds

c/o UMB Fund Services, Inc.

P.O. Box 711

Milwaukee, WI 53201-0711

By Overnight Delivery Service or Registered Mail

The Oberweis Funds

c/o UMB Fund Services, Inc.

235 W. Galena Street

You may make additional investments to an existing account by sending a check to the address above along with either the stub from your Fund account confirmation or a note indicating the amount of the purchase, name of the Fund, your account number, and the name(s) in which your account is registered.

Purchase by Wire

If you plan to purchase your initial shares by wire, UMBFS must have received a completed Account Application and issued an account number to you to credit for the wire. Federal funds are to be wired according to the following instructions:

UMB Bank, N.A.

ABA # 101000695

For credit to The Oberweis Funds

AC # 9871062287

For further credit to:

Shareholder Account Number

Name(s) of the Shareholder(s)

SSN or TIN

Name of the Fund to be purchased

You may make additional investments to your account by wire by just contacting your financial institution with the wire instructions. You will need to notify UMBFS at 1-800-245-7311 before or shortly after your wire has been sent.

Your financial institution may charge you a fee for sending the wire. Neither the Funds nor UMB Bank, N.A. (“UMB Bank”) will be responsible for the consequences of delays, including delays in the bank or Federal Reserve wire systems.

Online Purchases

You may establish a new account and make your initial purchase by visiting the Funds’ Web site (www.oberweisfunds.com) and filling out and electronically submitting the online new account application. Accounts established online are automatically eligible for subsequent online transaction privileges. Accounts for third parties, trusts, corporations, partnerships and other entities may not be opened online and are not eligible for online transactions.

Accounts not established online can also purchase subsequent shares in an existing account through the Funds’ Web site. To establish online privileges you must enroll through the Web site. You automatically have the ability to establish online privileges unless you decline them on your paper application. For important information on this feature, see “Transactions through the Funds’ Web Site” on page 68.

How to Redeem Shares

In General

You may redeem shares of the Funds by mail, by telephone, through the Funds’ Web site or through your own securities broker/dealer or its designated agent, or bank or other institution that is recorded for such account, if any (see “How to Purchase Shares”). Because of fluctuations in the value of each Fund, the NAV of shares redeemed may be more or less than your cost. Some broker/dealers, banks or other institutions may charge you a fee for redeeming shares of the Funds.

The Funds are designed for long-term investors. To discourage market timers and short-term and excessive trading, redemptions of shares of a Fund within 90 days of purchase will be subject to a 1.00% redemption fee (2.00% for the International Funds) of the total redemption amount. The redemption fee is deducted from the redemption proceeds and is retained by the Fund. The redemption fee also applies to exchanges within 90 days of purchase.

There are limited instances where the Funds will waive a redemption fee. The Funds may waive the redemption fee for the following redemptions:

•

Redemptions due to death or disability of a shareholder, forfeiture of assets, qualified domestic relations orders or loans and hardship withdrawals;

•

Redemptions of shares held through certain intermediaries and omnibus accounts, including retirement, pension, profit sharing and other qualified plans, as well as bank or trust company accounts;

•

Redemptions of shares in connection with required distributions and certain other transactions in individual retirement accounts or retirement plans;

•

Redemptions effected pursuant to asset allocation and rebalancing programs, wrap fee programs, and other investment programs offered by financial institutions;

•

Redemption of shares purchased by the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions;

•

Redemption of shares purchased pursuant to systematic withdrawal plans; or

•

Involuntary redemptions due to low account balances.

The Funds also do not impose a redemption fee when it is contrary to the law to do so.

Certain intermediaries, including certain broker/dealers, employer-sponsored retirement plans, defined contribution clearing and settlement accounts, and broker-sponsored programs, have established omnibus accounts with the Funds. If your shares are held through an intermediary in an omnibus account, the Funds rely on the intermediary to assess the redemption fee on underlying shareholder accounts. There are no assurances that the Funds will be successful in identifying all intermediaries or that the intermediaries will properly assess the redemption fee.

Certain intermediaries may not apply the waivers listed above to the redemption fee policy, and all redemptions by persons trading through such intermediaries may be subject to the redemption fee. Certain intermediaries may waive transactions not listed above from the redemption fee. Persons redeeming shares through an intermediary should check with their intermediary to determine which transactions are subject to the redemption fee. In addition, due to operational requirements, the intermediaries’ methods for tracking and calculating the redemption fee may differ in some respects from the Funds’ methods.

Redemption proceeds are normally sent on the business day following the day the redemption request is received with all required documents in proper form but may be delayed up to seven days. However, if you sell shares you recently purchased with a check, please note that if UMBFS has not yet collected payment for the shares you are selling, it may delay sending the proceeds for up to 10 days. This procedure is intended to protect the Funds and their shareholders from loss. You may request to have your redemption check sent by overnight courier to the address of record. If this is desired, a $15 fee will be deducted from the proceeds of the transaction.

Although it is each Fund’s policy to make payment of redemption proceeds in cash, if the Fund’s trustees determine it to be appropriate, and subject to certain limitations, a Fund may redeem shares by a distribution in kind to you of securities held by the Fund. Distributions in kind are subject to federal income tax in the same manner as when redemption proceeds are paid in cash.

Account Minimums

Each Fund reserves the right to redeem the shares in your account if its total value falls below $1,000 (below $500 for tax- advantaged retirement plans) as a result of a redemption. Each Fund will allow you 60 days to make additional investments before the redemption is processed.

Redemption by Mail

You may redeem shares by mailing a signed request for redemption that includes the account name and number and the number of shares or dollar amount to be redeemed and the name of the Fund. Your request must be sent to The Oberweis Funds, c/o UMB Fund Services, Inc., P.O. Box 711, Milwaukee, WI 53201-0711. For overnight delivery service or registered mail send to The Oberweis Funds c/o UMB Fund Services, Inc., 235 W. Galena Street, Milwaukee, WI 53212. Some redemption requests may require Medallion signature guarantees (see “Medallion Signature Guarantees and Other Documentation”). Your redemption request must be accompanied by share certificates, if any have been issued. In the case of joint ownership, all owners must sign the redemption request and all owners must sign any endorsement of share certificates. Additional documents may be required for redemption of shares held by estates, trusts, guardianships, corporations, partnerships and other shareholders who are not individuals. The Funds recommend that all mailed share certificates be sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested.

Redemption by Telephone

You automatically are granted telephone transaction privileges unless you decline them on your Account Application. With telephone transaction privileges, you may redeem your Fund shares by telephoning UMBFS at 1-800-245-7311. Pursuant to the telephone transaction program, you must authorize UMBFS to rely upon telephone instructions from anyone to redeem the specified number of shares or dollar amount and to transfer the proceeds according to your pre- designated instructions. UMBFS uses procedures reasonably designed to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine. UMBFS requires certain identifying information prior to acting upon instructions, records all telephone instructions and then sends confirmation of the transaction. As long as these procedures are reasonably followed, neither the Funds nor UMBFS would be liable for any losses from instructions communicated by telephone even if they are unauthorized or fraudulent.

Redemption proceeds will be mailed to the shareholder of record in the form of a check. The proceeds may also be transferred to the shareholder’s designated bank using electronic funds transferred via the Automated Clearing House (“ACH”), or, at the shareholder’s request, via wire transfer. Funds transferred via ACH will normally be transmitted on the business day following the telephone redemption request but may be delayed up to seven days following the telephone redemption request. There is no charge for transfers via ACH.

Funds transferred via wire transfer will normally be transmitted on the next business day following the request. There is a $15 fee for each wire redemption. Your bank may also charge additional fees for receiving a wire transfer. Checks issued by mail in response to a telephone redemption request can be issued only up to $50,000 to the registered owner(s) (who must be individuals) at the address of record which must have been on file for 30 days.

Online Redemptions

You may redeem shares through the Funds’ Web site at www.oberweisfunds.com. To establish online transaction privileges, you must enroll through the Web site. You automatically have the ability to establish online transaction privileges unless you decline them on your Account Application or by calling 1-800-245-7311. For important information on this feature, see “Fund Transactions Through the Funds’ Web Site.”

Medallion Signature Guarantees and Other Documentation

If redemption proceeds are $50,000 or less and are to be paid to an individual shareholder of record at the address of record, a Medallion signature guarantee is not required (unless there has been an address change within 30 days). All other redemption requests and changes in account application instructions must be guaranteed by a bank, securities broker/dealer, municipal securities broker/dealer, government securities broker/dealer, credit union, member firm of a national securities exchange, registered securities association or clearing agency, and/or savings association. A Medallion signature guarantee cannot be provided by a notary public. Please note that you must obtain a Medallion signature guarantee from a participant in the Securities Transfer Association Medallion Program. Approved programs currently include STAMP, SEMP and MSP. If you live outside the United States, a foreign bank properly authorized in your country of residence or a U.S. consulate may be able to authenticate your signature.

When a Medallion signature guarantee is required, the signature of each shareholder of record must be guaranteed. A redemption request from corporate, trust, and partnership accounts, and executors, administrators and guardians must be signed by an appropriately authorized person and include additional documents to verify the authority of the person seeking redemption, such as a certified by-law provision or resolution of the board of directors or trustees of the shareholder and/or a copy of the governing legal instrument. In order to avoid delays in processing redemption requests for these accounts, you should call the Funds at 1-800-245-7311 before making the redemption request to determine what documents are needed. In addition, any other person requiring information on redemption procedures may call the Funds at 1-800-245-7311.

Short-Term and Excessive Trading

The Funds are intended for long-term investment purposes only and are not intended to provide investors with a means of speculation on short-term market movements or market timing. The Funds will take reasonable steps to seek to prevent short-term and excessive trading. Short-term and excessive trading into and out of a Fund may present risks to other shareholders, disrupt portfolio investment strategies, increase expenses including trading and administrative costs, and negatively impact investment returns for all shareholders and result in dilution in the value of Fund shares held by shareholders, including long-term shareholders who do not generate these costs. These risks may be more pronounced for the Funds since they invest in

securities that may be more difficult to value or are susceptible to pricing arbitrage (e.g., micro-cap, small-cap, thinly traded and foreign securities). In an effort to protect long-term shareholders, the Board of Trustees has adopted policies and procedures that seek to deter short-term and excessive trading. As discussed in “How to Redeem Shares,” the Funds impose a 1.00% redemption fee (2.00% for the International Funds) on shares redeemed or exchanged within 90 days of purchase. In addition, the Funds reserve the right to reject any purchase request (including exchanges) by any investor or group of investors for any reason without prior notice, including, in particular, if they believe the trading activity in the account(s) would be disruptive to a Fund. For example, a Fund may refuse a purchase order if the portfolio manager believes he would be unable to invest the money effectively in accordance with the Fund’s investment policies or the Fund would otherwise be adversely affected due to the size of the transaction, frequency of trading or other factors. Transactions placed in violation of the Funds’ excessive trading policy are not deemed accepted by a Fund and may be cancelled or revoked by the Fund on the next business day following receipt by the Fund. The Funds also reserve the right to honor certain redemptions, with securities, rather than cash.

The trading history of accounts under common ownership or control within any of the Funds may be considered in enforcing this policy. Transactions placed through the same financial intermediary on an omnibus basis may be deemed a part of a group for purposes of this policy and may be rejected in whole or in part by a Fund. However, the Funds cannot always identify or reasonably detect short-term and excessive trading or market timing that may be facilitated by financial intermediaries or made difficult to identify through the use of omnibus accounts by those intermediaries that transmit purchase, exchange and redemption orders of the Funds. Transactions accepted by a financial intermediary in violation of the Funds’ excessive trading policy are not deemed accepted by a Fund and may be cancelled or revoked by the Fund on the next business day following receipt by the financial intermediary. There is no assurance that the Funds’ policies will be effective in limiting and deterring short-term and excessive trading or market timing in all circumstances.

Anti-Money Laundering Program

The Funds are required to comply with various federal anti-money laundering laws and regulations. Consequently, the Funds may be required to “freeze” the account of a shareholder if the shareholder appears to be involved in suspicious activity or if certain account information matches information on government lists of known terrorists or other suspicious persons, or the Funds may be required to transfer the account or proceeds of the account to a government agency. The Funds may also be required to reject a purchase payment, block a shareholder’s account and consequently refuse to implement requests for transfers and withdrawals.

Federal law requires the Funds to obtain, verify and record identifying information, which may include the name, street address, taxpayer identification number or other identifying information for shareholders who open an account with the Funds. The Funds may also ask to see a shareholder’s driver’s license or other identifying

documents. Applications without this information may not be accepted and orders may not be processed. The Funds reserve the right to place limits on transactions in any account until the identity of the shareholder is verified; to refuse an investment in the Funds or involuntarily redeem a shareholder’s shares and close an account in the event that a shareholder’s identity is not verified; or suspend the payment of withdrawal proceeds if it is deemed necessary to comply with anti-money laundering regulations. The Funds and their agents will not be responsible for any loss resulting from the shareholder’s delay in providing all required identifying information or from closing an account and redeeming a shareholder’s shares when a shareholder’s identity cannot be verified.

Transactions through the Funds’ Web Site

You may establish a new account, check your Fund account balance(s) and historical transactions and purchase, sell or exchange shares in an existing account of the Funds through the Funds’ Web site at www.oberweisfunds.com. You automatically have the ability to view account balances and transactions by enrolling on the Web site. You also automatically have the ability to complete transactions on the Web site unless you decline them on your Application or call 1-800-245-7311.

You will be required to enter into a user’s agreement through the Web site in order to enroll for these privileges. In order to conduct online transactions, you must have telephone transaction privileges. To purchase shares online, you must also have ACH instructions on your account because payment for purchases of shares online may be made only through an ACH debit of your bank account. The Funds impose a limit of $50,000 on purchase, redemption, and exchange transactions through the Web site.

You should be aware that the Internet is an unsecured, unstable, unregulated and unpredictable environment. Your ability to use the Web site for transactions is dependent upon the Internet and equipment, software, systems, data and services provided by various vendors and third parties. While the Funds and their service providers have established certain security procedures, the Funds, OAM, OSI and the Funds’ Transfer Agent cannot assure you that inquiries, account information or trading activity will be completely secure.

There also may be delays, malfunctions or other inconveniences associated with the Internet, and times when the Web site is unavailable for transactions or other purposes. Should this happen, you should consider purchasing or redeeming using another method. Neither the Funds, OAM, OSI or UMBFS will be liable for any such delays, malfunctions, unauthorized interception or access to information. In addition, provided reasonable security procedures are used, neither the Funds, OAM, OSI or UMBFS will be responsible for any loss, liability or cost expense for following instructions communicated through the Internet, including fraudulent or unauthorized transactions.

Pricing of Fund Shares

All purchases, redemptions and exchanges will be processed at the NAV next calculated after your request is received and accepted by a Fund (or the Fund’s agent or authorized designee). NAV per share is computed by dividing the value of a Fund’s net assets (i.e., the value of its assets less liabilities) by the total number of shares then outstanding.

Each Fund’s investments are valued based on market value or, where quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable, on fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees. Since the Funds invest in equity securities of micro-, small- and mid-cap companies, these circumstances may arise, for instance, when trading in a security is suspended or the trading volume in a security is limited, calling into question the reliability of market quotations. The value of fair valued securities may be different from the last reported sale price (or the last reported bid price), and there is no guarantee that a fair valued security will be sold at the price at which the Fund is carrying the security.

The International Funds and the Emerging Growth Fund may use a fair valuation model provided by an independent pricing service, which is intended to reflect fair value when a security’s value or a meaningful portion of a Fund’s portfolio is believed to have been materially affected by a significant event that has occurred between the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded and the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The Funds’ valuation policies set forth certain triggers which instruct when to use the valuation model. The value assigned to a security by the fair valuation model is a determination of fair value made under the Funds’ valuation policies and under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. In such a case, a Fund’s value for a security is likely to be different from the last quoted price.

Foreign currency exchange rates are determined at the close of trading on the NYSE. Occasionally, events affecting the value of foreign investments occur between the time at which they are determined and the close of trading on the NYSE. Such events would not normally be reflected in a calculation of a Fund’s NAV on that day. If events that materially affect the value of a Fund’s foreign investments occur during such period, the investments will be valued at their fair value as described above.

Foreign securities held by the Funds may be traded on days and at times when the NYSE is closed. Accordingly, the value of the Funds’ investments may be significantly affected on days when shareholders have no access to the Funds. For valuation purposes, quotations of foreign portfolio securities, other assets and liabilities, and forward contracts stated in foreign currency are translated into U.S.-dollar equivalents at the prevailing market rates.

computed NAV. The NAV of the shares of each Fund is computed once daily, as of the later of the close of regular trading on the NYSE or the Chicago Board Options Exchange (“CBOE”), on each day the NYSE is open for trading. For purposes of computing the NAV, all securities in a Fund other than options are priced as of the close of trading on the NYSE. The options in the Funds are priced as of the close of trading on the CBOE.

Shareholder Services

General Information

In addition to the purchase and redemption services described above, the Funds offer their shareholders the special accounts and services described below. You may obtain applications and information about any shareholder services by calling 1-800-245-7311.

When you make an initial investment in a Fund, a shareholder account is opened for you in accordance with the Fund’s Account Application instructions. After each transaction for your account, you will be sent a confirmation. This includes all deposits, purchases, reinvestments, redemptions, withdrawal payments, and other transactions in your account.

You will be the record owner of all shares in your account with full shareholder rights; the Funds no longer issue certificates for their shares. Current shareholders who have share certificates must submit these certificates for all exchange, redemption, or transfer requests. All regular transaction rules apply; share certificates will not be reissued in the event of transfers or exchanges. Certain functions performed by the Funds in connection with the operation of the accounts described above will be performed by the Funds’ Transfer Agent, UMBFS.

Exchange Privilege

All or part of Fund shares owned by you may be exchanged for shares of any other Oberweis Fund offering shares in this prospectus at that time. Shares will be exchanged for each other based upon their relative net asset values. Exchange requests are subject to a $1,000 minimum. Exchanges within 90 days of purchase from a Fund are subject to the applicable redemption fee (see “How to Redeem Shares”).

All or part of Fund shares owned by you may be exchanged for shares of the Oberweis International Opportunities Institutional Fund, which are offered by a separate prospectus, provided that your exchange meets the minimum investment requirements for that Fund - generally, $1 million. Shares will be exchanged for each other based on their relative net asset values. Exchanges within 90 days of purchase from a Fund are subject to the applicable redemption fee (see “How to Redeem Shares”).

To take advantage of the Exchange Privilege by mail, you must send us a written request that includes your name, your account number, the name of the Fund you

currently own, the name of the Fund you wish to exchange into and the dollar amount or number of shares you wish to exchange. Please remember that you cannot place any conditions on your request.

If you have any share certificates, you must include them with your request. A Medallion signature guarantee is not required, except in some cases where shares are also redeemed for cash at the same time. For certificate delivery instructions and when you need a Medallion signature guarantee, please see “Redemption by Mail” under “How to Redeem Shares.”

You may also call us at 1-800-245-7311 unless you have previously notified the Funds in writing not to effect telephone exchanges. Exchanges made over the phone may be made by any person, not just the shareholder of record. Please remember that during unusual market conditions, we may have difficulty in accepting telephone requests, in which case you should mail your request to our address. Please see “Purchase by Mail” for our address.

You may exchange shares through the Funds’ Web site at www.oberweisfunds.com. To establish online transaction privileges, you must enroll through the Web site. You automatically have the ability to establish online transaction privileges unless you decline them on your Account Application or by calling 1-800-245-7311. For important information on this feature, see “Fund Transactions Through the Funds’ Web site.” In addition, you may also be able to make exchanges through certain securities broker/dealers that may charge you a fee for effecting an exchange.

An exchange of shares is considered a sale for federal income tax purposes. You may realize a gain or loss depending upon whether the value of the shares being exchanged is more or less than their adjusted cost basis.

Exchanging shares is available only in states where shares of a particular Fund being acquired may legally be sold. The exchange privilege is not a right and may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time. Except as otherwise permitted by applicable regulations, 60 days’ prior written notice of any termination or material change will be provided.

Low Minimum Initial Investment Plan/Automatic Investment Plan

By completing the Automatic Investment Plan section of the Account Application, you may make subsequent investments by authorizing the Funds and UMB Bank N.A., the Fund’s Custodian Bank, to debit your bank account to buy additional shares of the Funds. The minimum initial investment in each Fund is $1,000. However, the Low Minimum Initial Investment Plan allows you to open an account with an initial investment of $100 and subsequent monthly investments of $100 or more for at least a one-year period.

You can make Automatic Investments either monthly or quarterly, on or about the 5th or the 20th of the month, in pre-designated amounts of $100 or more. Funds will be transferred from your designated bank, using electronic funds transferred via ACH. If these dates fall on a weekend or holiday, investments will be made on the next

business day. Initial investments may not be made by the Automatic Investment Plan. The Plan is subject to the approval of the shareholder’s bank. You can stop investing through the Automatic Investment Plan by calling or by sending written notice to the Funds’ Transfer Agent. The notice must be received at least 5 business days prior to the date of your next scheduled automatic purchase. The Automatic Investment Plan is set up as a convenience to the shareholder. If the transaction is returned from your bank as “insufficient funds”, UMBFS will attempt a second draw from the shareholders’ bank. If, at any time, the funds are still insufficient, the Automatic Investment Plan will then be terminated and a $20 NSF fee will be assessed for each attempt made. The proceeds will be drawn from the shareholder’s account at the Fund. Your Automatic Investment Plan will be terminated in the event UMBFS makes two successive mailings that are returned by the U.S. Post Office as undeliverable. If this occurs, you must call or write UMBFS to reinstate your Automatic Investment Plan. Any changes to your banking information upon the Automatic Investment Plan’s reinstatement will require a signature guarantee as discussed above under “Medallion Signature Guarantees and Other Documentation.”

If you cancel the Low Minimum Initial Investment Plan before a one-year period, the Fund reserves the right to redeem your account if the balance is below the minimum investment level, currently $1,000. The Funds reserve the right to terminate or modify the Automatic Investment Plan at any time. See the Account Application for additional details.

Systematic Withdrawal Plan

If you own Fund shares with a current NAV of at least $10,000, you may establish a Systematic Withdrawal Plan. By using this plan, you may have withdrawn from your account a fixed sum that will be paid to you or a pre-designated third party at regular intervals. If your Systematic Withdrawal Plan date falls on a weekend or holiday, the proceeds will be withdrawn from your account on the next business day.

A Systematic Withdrawal Plan cannot be established for you if you own Fund shares for which certificates are outstanding. All share certificates must be surrendered before beginning systematic withdrawals. See the Account Application for additional details.

Tax-Advantaged Retirement Plan Accounts

A Fund’s shares may be purchased as investments in Individual Retirement Accounts (“IRAs”) such as Traditional IRAs, Roth IRAs, Rollover IRAs and Simplified Employee Pension Plans (known as SEP-IRAs), Coverdell Education Savings Accounts, and other tax-advantaged retirement plans, such as 401(k) Plans, and 403(b)(7) Plans. Investing in a Fund’s shares must be done according to the conditions of the IRA and/or other retirement plan agreements. You should contact your Plan custodians to determine the eligibility of the Funds’ shares as IRA or retirement plan investments.

You may use the Funds’ Custodian Bank to establish certain types of retirement plan accounts, including IRAs and SEP-IRAs in order to purchase shares of a Fund with

your retirement funds. Further details, including fees and charges imposed by the Custodian Bank, are set forth in the Custodian’s information material (account agreement, application, and disclosure statement) which is available from the Funds.

Privacy Notice

This notice describes the privacy practices followed by the Funds.

Shareholder privacy is a top priority. The Funds’ policy is to respect the privacy of current and former shareholders and to protect personal information entrusted to it. The Funds do not share any nonpublic personal information of shareholders or former shareholders with any nonaffiliated third parties, except as permitted by law or as authorized by the shareholders.

In the course of providing products and services to you, the Funds collect nonpublic personal information about you from various sources such as account applications or agreements, other account forms, transactions in your account, and from information captured on the Funds’ Web site. Such information may include your name, address, account or tax identification number, the types and amounts of investments, and bank account information.

In the normal course of serving shareholders, information the Funds collect may be shared with companies that perform various services such as custodians, transfer agents, and broker-dealers. The Funds may share information in connection with servicing accounts or to inform shareholders of products and services that it believes may be of interest to shareholders. The organizations that receive shareholder information will use that information only for the services required and as allowed by applicable law or regulation, and are not permitted to share or use this information for any other purposes.

Access to customers’ nonpublic personal information is restricted to employees who need to access that information. The Funds use industry standard physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect shareholder information. A shareholder’s right to privacy extends to all forms of contact with the Funds, including telephone, written correspondence, and electronic media, such as the Internet.

For questions concerning this policy, please write or call the Funds.

DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES

Taxation of the Funds

Each of the Funds has elected to be treated, has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for federal income tax purposes. As regulated investment companies, the Funds generally pay no federal income tax on the income and gains that they distribute to you.

Taxation of Shareholders

To avoid taxation, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), requires that a Fund distribute its net investment income and any net capital gains realized on its investments annually. A Fund’s income from certain dividends, interest and any net realized short-term capital gains are paid to shareholders as dividends. A Fund’s income from certain qualifying dividends, that are designated as such by the Fund, will be paid to shareholders as “qualified dividend income,” provided certain holding period and other requirements are satisfied by the Fund and shareholder. Net realized long-term capital gains are paid to shareholders as capital gains distributions. The dividends and capital gain distributions are normally declared and paid in December.

Except for those shareholders exempt from federal income taxation, dividends and capital gain distributions will be taxable to shareholders, whether paid in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the Funds. You will be notified annually as to the federal income tax status of dividends and capital gains distributions. Such dividends and distributions may also be subject to state and local taxes.

Long-term capital gain distributions (generally relating to assets held by a Fund for more than 12 months) are taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gain regardless of how long you have held shares of the Fund. For federal income tax purposes, long-term capital gain distributions made to individual shareholders are currently taxed at rates up to 20%. Dividends representing certain net investment income and net realized short-term capital gains are taxed as ordinary income at federal income tax rates up to 39.6% for individuals. Dividends representing “qualified dividend income” received by individual and other noncorporate shareholders are currently taxed at federal income tax rates up to 20%. Dividends from foreign corporations are not treated as “qualified dividend income” if the foreign corporation is not incorporated in a possession of the United States or is not eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States (unless the foreign corporation stock is readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States) or if the foreign corporation is a passive foreign investment company. Any dividends and distributions declared in October, November or December to shareholders of record as of a date in one of those months and paid during the following January are treated for federal income tax purposes as paid on December 31 of the calendar year in which they are declared.

Dividends and capital gains distributions are automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Funds, unless you elect to receive them in cash. A cash election remains in effect until you notify the Transfer Agent by calling or writing to discontinue such election.

If you redeem or exchange shares of a Fund (other than shares held in a tax-advantaged account), it is generally considered a taxable event for you. Depending on the purchase price and the sale price of the shares you redeem or exchange, you may have a gain or loss on the transaction. The gain or loss will generally be treated as a long-term capital gain or loss if you held your shares for more than one year. If

you held your shares for one year or less, the gain or loss will generally be treated as a short-term capital gain or loss. You may be limited in your ability to use capital losses.

An additional 3.8% Medicare tax is imposed on certain net investment income (including dividends and capital gain distributions received from a Fund and net gains from redemptions or other taxable dispositions of Fund shares) of U.S. individuals, estates and trusts to the extent that such person’s “modified adjusted gross income” (in the case of an individual) or “adjusted gross income” (in the case of an estate or trust) exceeds a threshold amount.

Distribution to Retirement Plans

Fund distributions received by your qualified retirement plan, such as a 401(k) Plan or IRA, are generally tax deferred. This means that you are not required to report Fund distributions on your federal income tax return, but, rather, when your plan makes payments to you. Special rules apply to payments from Roth IRAs and Coverdell education savings accounts (formerly called Education IRAs).

How Distributions Affect a Fund’s NAV

Distributions are paid to shareholders as of the record date of a distribution of a Fund. Dividends and capital gains awaiting distribution are included in each Fund’s daily NAV. The share price of a Fund drops by the amount of the distribution, net of any subsequent market fluctuations. You should be aware that distributions from a mutual fund are not value-enhancing and may create income tax obligations.

“Buying a Dividend”

If you purchase shares of a Fund shortly before a distribution, you will pay the full price for the shares and may receive a portion of the purchase price back as a taxable distribution. This is referred to as “buying a dividend.” Of course, a Fund’s share price may, at any time, reflect undistributed capital gains or income and unrealized appreciation, which may result in future taxable distributions. Such distributions can occur even in a year when a Fund has a negative return.

Unless your account is set up as a tax-advantaged account, dividends paid to you will be included in your gross income for federal income tax purposes, even though you may not have participated in the increase in NAV of a Fund and whether or not you reinvested the dividends.

Backup Withholding

all the distributions (including dividends and capital gain distributions) and redemption proceeds paid to you. Each Fund is also required to begin backup withholding on your account if the IRS instructs it to do so. Amounts withheld may be applied to your federal income tax liability and you may obtain a refund from the IRS if withholding results in overpayment of taxes for such year.

Foreign Taxes

Dividends, interest, and some capital gains received by the Funds on foreign securities may be subject to tax withholding or other foreign taxes. If applicable, the Funds may from year to year make the election permitted under section 853 of the Code to pass through such taxes to shareholders. In such event, shareholders will be required to treat as part of the amounts distributed to them, their pro rata portion of such taxes, and may claim a credit or deduction for such taxes, subject in each case to certain limitations contained in the Code. If such an election is not made, any foreign taxes paid or accrued will represent an expense to the Funds. It is anticipated that only the International Funds will be eligible to make the election available under Code section 853.

You are advised to consult your own tax adviser as to the federal, state, local and/or foreign tax consequences of owning shares of each Fund with respect to your specific circumstances.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The financial highlights tables are intended to help you understand each Fund’s financial performance for the past five fiscal years. Certain information reflects financial results for a single Fund share. The total returns in the tables represent the rate that an investor would have earned (or lost) on an investment in the Fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions). The information has been derived from financial statements audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, whose report, along with the Funds’ financial statements, is included in the Annual Report, which is available upon request and incorporated by reference in to the Statement of Additional Information.

OBERWEIS INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES INSTITUTIONAL FUND

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

The Oberweis International Opportunities Institutional Fund’s investment objective is to maximize long-term capital appreciation.

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.


Shareholder Fees
(Fees paid directly from your investments)

Redemption Fee as a percentage of amount redeemed within 90 calendar days of purchase	2.00%

Exchange Fee as a percentage of amount exchanged within 90 calendar days of purchase	2.00%

Annual Fund Operating Expenses
(Expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)

Management Fees	1.00%

Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees	.00%

Other Expenses	.39%

Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses¹	1.39%

Expense Reimbursement	(.29%	)

Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Expense Reimbursement	1.10%

¹The Fund’s adviser has a contractual arrangement with the Fund to reimburse it for total annual fund operating expenses in excess of 1.10% of average daily net assets, excluding any interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses (the “expense limitation”). The contractual arrangement continues in force until April 30, 2016. The contractual arrangement may be amended at any time by the mutual written consent of the adviser and the Fund. The adviser may recoup the amount of any expenses reimbursed during the term of the contract if the recoupment does not cause the Fund’s expenses to exceed the expense limitation.

Example

The 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 on these assumptions your costs would be: One Year: $112 Three Years: $412 Five Years: $733 Ten Years: $1,643

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 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 Expense or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period (March 10, 2014 to December 31, 2014), the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 152% of the average value of its portfolio.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund seeks to invest in those companies which OAM considers to have above-average long-term growth potential. OAM selects companies which meet this criteria based on, among other things, fundamental analysis of individual securities. OAM’s fundamental analysis entails an evaluation of an individual company’s future growth prospects. OAM’s evaluation may be based on, among other things, financial statement analysis, stock valuation in relation to OAM’s estimate of future earnings, evaluation of competitive product or service offerings, future research and development pipeline and management interviews. OAM may actively trade the Fund’s portfolio, and as a result, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate may be high. There are no restrictions on the capitalization of companies whose securities the Fund may buy; however, the Fund generally invests in the stocks of smaller companies

(generally companies with a market capitalization of less than $5 billion). The Fund may also invest in securities of countries in developed and developing (or emerging) markets. The Fund generally will invest less than 25% of its assets in securities of countries in emerging markets.

PRINCIPAL RISKS

The Fund is designed for long-term investors who seek growth of capital and who can tolerate the greater risks associated with seeking maximum capital appreciation. Investment in common stocks, particularly in common stocks of small- and medium-sized companies with high growth potential, can be volatile. The value of the Fund’s shares will go up and down due to movement of the overall stock market or of the value of the individual securities held by the Fund. Because of this volatility, we recommend that you invest in the Fund as a long-term investment only, and only for a portion of your investment portfolio, not for all of it. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s objective will be met.

Small-sized Company Risk

Risks Associated with Non-U.S. Companies

Emerging Market Risks

RMB Currency Risk

Portfolio Turnover Risk

The Fund may experience high rates of portfolio turnover, which results in above average transaction costs and the payment by shareholders of taxes on above-average amounts of realized investment gains, including net short-term capital gains, which are taxed as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.

FUND PERFORMANCE

The bar chart and table showing the Fund’s annual and average annual total returns are not included because the Fund does not have annual returns for a full calendar year.

MANAGEMENT

Investment Adviser

Oberweis Asset Management, Inc. (“OAM”)

Portfolio Manager

Ralf A. Scherschmidt, Portfolio Manager, since inception of the Fund.

Buying and Selling Fund Shares

The minimum initial investment is $1,000,000. There is no minimum for subsequent purchases. You may meet the minimum initial investment amount by aggregating multiple accounts with common ownership within the Fund, including individual and joint accounts, as well as accounts where you have beneficial ownership through acting as a custodian for a minor account or as a beneficiary to a trust account. In addition, if you invest in the Fund through a financial intermediary, the minimum initial investment requirement may be met if your financial intermediary aggregates investments of multiple clients to meet the minimum. There is no minimum initial investment requirement for omnibus retirement plans or wrap fee program assets held in an omnibus account with aggregate assets of $10 million or more. The Fund reserves the right to waive or modify these minimum initial investment requirements at any time.

You may redeem shares of the Fund by mail, telephone, online at www.oberweisfunds.com or through your own securities broker/dealer or its designated agent or bank or other institution on any day the New York Stock Exchange is open.

Tax Information

The Fund’s distributions are taxable as ordinary income or capital gains, unless your investment is in an IRA, 401(k) or other tax-advantaged investment plan (which may be taxable upon withdrawal).

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase shares of 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 financial intermediary to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, POLICIES AND RISKS

Investment Objective of the Fund

The Fund’s investment objective is to maximize long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is not designed for investors seeking income over capital appreciation. Income realized on the Fund’s investments is incidental to its objective.

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in the securities of companies based outside the United States (as defined on page 2).

Principal Investment Strategy of the Fund

The Fund invests principally in the common stocks of companies that OAM believes have the potential for significant long-term growth in market value.

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in the securities of companies based outside the United States.

The Fund seeks to invest in those companies which OAM considers to have above-average long-term growth potential. OAM selects companies which meet this criteria based on, among other things, fundamental analysis of individual securities. OAM’s fundamental analysis entails an evaluation of an individual company’s future growth prospects. OAM’s evaluation may be based on, among other things, financial statement analysis, stock valuation in relation to OAM’s estimate of future earnings, evaluation of competitive product or service offerings, future research and development pipeline and management interviews. OAM may actively trade the Fund’s portfolio, and as a result, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate may be high. There are no restrictions on the capitalization of companies whose securities the Fund may buy; however, the Fund generally invests in the stocks of smaller companies. OAM generally considers companies with a market capitalization of less than $5 billion as small size companies.

Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund

The Fund primarily invests in equity securities with the objective to maximize long-term capital appreciation. If you are considering investing in the Fund, remember that it is designed for long-term investors who seek growth of capital and who can tolerate the greater risks associated with seeking maximum capital appreciation. Investment in common stocks, particularly in common stocks of small- and medium-size companies with high growth potential, can be volatile. The value of the Fund’s shares will go up and down due to movement of the overall stock market or of the value of the individual securities held by the Fund. Because of this volatility, we recommend that

you invest in the Fund as a long-term investment only, and only for a portion of your investment portfolio, not for all of it. The Fund discourages short-term trading in its shares. Dividends are expected to be minimal and there can be no assurance that the Fund’s objective will be met.

An 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.

Small-sized Company Risk

The Fund is subject to small-sized company risk, because although there are no restrictions on the capitalization of companies whose securities the Fund may buy, the Fund generally invests in small-sized companies.

Risks Associated with Non-U.S. Companies

Investments by the Fund in the securities of non-U.S. issuers involve certain additional investment risks different from those of U.S. issuers. These risks include: possibility of political or economic instability of the country of issue, possibility of disruption to international trade patterns, possibility of currency risk, possibility of currency exchange controls, imposition of foreign withholding taxes, seizure or nationalization of foreign deposits or assets, and adoption of adverse foreign government trade restrictions. There may be less publicly available information about a non-U.S. company than about a U.S. company. Sometimes non-U.S. companies are subject to different accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards, practices, and requirements than U.S. companies. There is generally less government regulation of stock exchanges, brokers and listed companies abroad than in the U.S., which may result in less transparency with respect to a company’s operations. The absence of negotiated brokerage in certain countries may result in higher brokerage fees.

Emerging Market Risks

more likely to experience high levels of inflation, deflation or currency devaluations, which could hurt their economies and securities markets.

Investments by the Fund in China

Despite economic reforms that have resulted in less direct central and local government control over Chinese businesses, actions of the Chinese central and local government authorities continue to have a substantial effect on economic conditions in China. These activities, which may include central planning, partial state ownership of or government actions designed to substantially influence certain Chinese industries, market sectors or particular Chinese companies, may adversely affect the public and private sector companies in which the Fund invests. Government actions may also affect the economic prospects for, and the market prices and liquidity of, the securities of China companies and the payments of dividends and interest by China companies. In addition, currency fluctuations, monetary policies, competition, social instability or political unrest may adversely affect economic growth in China. The Chinese economy and Chinese companies may also be adversely affected by regional security threats, as well as adverse developments in Chinese trade policies, or in trade policies toward China by countries that are trading partners with China.

Government Relationships Risk

Other Investment Policies and Risks

Although the Fund may invest substantially all of its assets in common stocks, the Fund may also invest in convertible securities, preferred stocks and restricted securities. In addition, the Fund may establish and maintain reserves for temporary defensive purposes or to enable it to take advantage of buying opportunities. The Fund’s reserves may be held in cash or invested in high quality money market

instruments. The Fund may also lend its portfolio securities, write (sell) call options against investment positions and purchase put and call options.

Restricted Securities and Illiquid Securities

The Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in securities that are not readily marketable, including securities where resale is legally or contractually restricted (all of which are collectively referred to as “restricted securities”) and equity-linked certificates. The sale of restricted securities often takes more time than more liquid securities and may result in higher selling expenses. Also, the Fund may have to dispose of restricted securities at less desirable prices or at prices lower than the Fund valued the securities. The Fund may resell restricted securities to other institutions. If there is a dealer or institutional trading market in such securities, restricted securities and equity-linked certificates may be treated as exempt from the Fund’s limitation on illiquid securities.

Temporary Defensive Investments

To respond to adverse market, political or other conditions, the Fund’s cash or other similar investments may increase from time to time. When OAM temporarily increases the Fund’s cash position, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective. Securities that the Fund may invest in as a means of receiving a return on idle cash include U.S. government obligations, certificates of deposit, commercial paper (rated prime 3 or better by Moody’s Investor Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or the equivalent), corporate debt securities (rated A or better by Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s Corporation) and repurchase agreements.

When the Fund’s investments in cash or similar investments increase, it may not participate in market advances or declines to the same extent that it would if the Fund remained more fully invested in stocks.

Repurchase Agreements

As a means of earning income on idle cash, the Fund may enter into repurchase agreements. This technique involves the purchase of a security by the Fund and a simultaneous agreement by the seller (generally a bank or dealer) to repurchase the security from the Fund at a specified date or upon demand. These securities involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of market value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. The Fund cannot enter into repurchase agreements in excess of 25% of its total assets. The Fund cannot invest in repurchase agreements with maturities of seven days or more if, taken together with all other illiquid securities in the Fund’s portfolio, more than 15% of the Fund’s net assets would be invested in illiquid securities.

Lending of Fund Securities

To generate additional income, the Fund may lend its portfolio securities to qualified brokers/dealers or institutional investors. Such loans may not exceed 30% of the Fund’s total assets measured at the time of the most recent loan. For each loan, the borrower must maintain collateral at the Fund’s custodian with a value at least equal to 100% of the current market value of the security loaned.

Options

The Fund may buy put and call options on stocks and stock indices. An option on a security is a contract that gives the buyer of the option the right to buy or sell a specific security at a stated price during the option’s term. An option on a securities index is a contract that gives the buyer of the option the right to receive cash from the seller in an amount equal to the difference between the index’s closing price and the option’s exercise price. Options are considered “derivative” securities and are generally used to hedge a portfolio against certain market risks, but they may also be used to increase returns. Using options may decrease returns and increase volatility.

The Fund may invest up to 5% of its assets in the purchase of put and call options. The Fund may also write (sell) covered call options on its Fund securities. The total market value of the underlying securities of covered call options is limited to 50% of the Fund’s net assets.

FUND HOLDINGS

A description of the policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of the Fund’s investments is available in the Statement of Additional Information and on The Oberweis Funds’ Web site at www.oberweisfunds.com.

MANAGEMENT OF THE FUNDS

Investment Adviser

(“OAM”), 3333 Warrenville Road, Suite 500, Lisle, Illinois, 60532, an investment adviser registered with the SEC, is the investment adviser to the Fund and is responsible for the day-to-day management of its investment portfolio and other business affairs of The Oberweis Funds.

business. OAM furnishes the Fund with certain administrative, compliance and accounting services and provides information and certain administrative services for shareholders of the Fund. OAM provides these services under a combined investment advisory and management agreement. OAM also provides office space and facilities for the management of The Oberweis Funds and pays the salaries and fees of The Oberweis Funds’ officers.

In rendering investment advisory services to the Fund, OAM will use the resources of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Oberweis Asset Management UK Limited (“OAM UK”) located in the United Kingdom, and Oberweis Asset Management (Asia) Limited (“OAM (Asia) Limited”) located in Hong Kong. Such services will be provided subject to the terms of a no-action letter granted by the SEC in 1997 governing the use of “Participating Affiliates.” Each of OAM UK and OAM (Asia) Limited and their associated persons who provide services to U.S. clients are subject to the supervision of OAM and other conditions of the no-action letter.

Management Expenses

As compensation for its investment advisory services, for managing the business affairs and providing certain administrative services, the Fund pays OAM pursuant to Investment Advisory and Management Agreement an annual fee which is computed and accrued daily and paid monthly. OAM receives 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Fund, subject to reduction because of the Fund’s annual expense limitation.

A discussion regarding the basis for the Board of Trustees’ approval of the Investment Advisory and Management Agreement for the Fund is available in the Fund’s semi-annual report to shareholders for the period ended June 30, 2014.

The Fund also incurs expenses for services not provided and expenses not assumed by OAM, such as transfer agent and custodian fees and expenses, legal and auditing fees, printing and mailing costs of sending prospectuses, shareholder reports and other information to existing shareholders, and independent Trustees’ fees and expenses.

Distribution of Shares

The Fund has appointed Oberweis Securities, Inc. (“OSI”) to act as the principal distributor of the Fund’s shares and as a shareholder service agent.

OTHER INFORMATION

In the future, the Fund may cease sales to new investors and/or existing shareholders to control asset levels. If sales of the Fund are discontinued, it is expected that existing shareholders of the Fund would be permitted to reinvest any dividends or capital gain distributions in additional shares of the Fund, absent highly unusual circumstances.

For important information on this feature, see “Fund Transactions Through The Oberweis Funds’ Web Site.”

How to Redeem Shares

In General

You may redeem shares of the Fund by mail, by telephone, through The Oberweis Funds’ Web site or through your own securities broker/dealer or its designated agent, or bank or other institution that is recorded for such account, if any (see “How to Purchase Shares”). Because of fluctuations in the value of the Fund, the NAV of shares redeemed may be more or less than your cost. Some broker/dealers, banks or other institutions may charge you a fee for redeeming shares of the Fund.

The Fund is designed for long-term investors. To discourage market timers and short-term and excessive trading, redemptions of shares of the Fund within 90 days of purchase will be subject to a 2.00% redemption fee of the total redemption amount. The redemption fee is deducted from the redemption proceeds and is retained by the Fund. The redemption fee also applies to exchanges within 90 days of purchase.

There are limited instances where the Fund will waive a redemption fee. The Fund may waive the redemption fee for the following redemptions:

•

Redemptions due to death or disability of a shareholder, forfeiture of assets, qualified domestic relations orders or loans and hardship withdrawals;

•

Redemptions of shares held through certain intermediaries and omnibus accounts, including retirement, pension, profit sharing and other qualified plans, as well as bank or trust company accounts;

•

Redemptions of shares in connection with required distributions and certain other transactions in individual retirement accounts or retirement plans;

•

Redemptions effected pursuant to asset allocation and rebalancing programs, wrap fee programs, and other investment programs offered by financial institutions;

•

Redemption of shares purchased by the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions;

•

Redemption of shares purchased pursuant to systematic withdrawal plans; or

•

Involuntary redemptions due to low account balances.

The Fund also does not impose a redemption fee when it is contrary to the law to do so.

Certain intermediaries, including certain broker/dealers, employer-sponsored retirement plans, defined contribution clearing and settlement accounts, and broker-sponsored programs, have established omnibus accounts with the Fund. If your shares are held through an intermediary in an omnibus account, the Fund relies on the intermediary to assess the redemption fee on underlying shareholder accounts. There are no assurances that the Fund will be successful in identifying all intermediaries or that the intermediaries will properly assess the redemption fee.

Redemption proceeds are normally sent on the business day following the day the redemption request is received with all required documents in proper form but may be delayed up to seven days. However, if you sell shares you recently purchased with a check, please note that if UMBFS has not yet collected payment for the shares you are selling, it may delay sending the proceeds for up to 10 days. This procedure is intended to protect the Fund and its shareholders from loss. You may request to have your redemption check sent by overnight courier to the address of record. If this is desired, a $15 fee will be deducted from the proceeds of the transaction.

Although it is the Fund’s policy to make payment of redemption proceeds in cash, if the Fund’s Trustees determine it to be appropriate, and subject to certain limitations, the Fund may redeem shares by a distribution in kind to you of securities held by the Fund. Distributions in kind are subject to federal income tax in the same manner as when redemption proceeds are paid in cash.

Account Minimums

The Fund reserves the right to redeem the shares in your account if its total value falls below $1,000,000 as a result of a redemption. The Fund will allow you 60 days to make additional investments before the redemption is processed.

Redemption by Mail

You may redeem shares by mailing a signed request for redemption that includes the account name and number and the number of shares or dollar amount to be redeemed and the name of the Fund. Your request must be sent to The Oberweis Funds, c/o UMB Fund Services, Inc., P.O. Box 711, Milwaukee, WI 53201-0711. For overnight delivery service or registered mail send to The Oberweis Funds c/o UMB Fund Services, Inc., 235 W. Galena Street, Milwaukee, WI 53212. Some redemption requests may require Medallion signature guarantees (see “Medallion Signature Guarantees and Other Documentation”). In the case of joint ownership, all owners must sign the redemption request and all owners must sign any endorsement of share certificates. Additional documents may be required for redemption of shares held by estates, trusts, guardianships, corporations, partnerships and other shareholders who are not individuals.

Redemption by Telephone

You automatically are granted telephone transaction privileges unless you decline them on your Account Application. With telephone transaction privileges, you may redeem your Fund shares by telephoning UMBFS at 1-800-245-7311. Pursuant to the telephone transaction program, you must authorize UMBFS to rely upon telephone instructions from anyone to redeem the specified number of shares or dollar amount and to transfer the proceeds according to your pre-designated instructions. UMBFS uses procedures reasonably designed to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine. UMBFS requires certain identifying information prior to acting upon instructions, records all telephone instructions and then sends confirmation of the transaction. As long as these procedures are reasonably followed, neither the Fund nor UMBFS would be liable for any losses from instructions communicated by telephone even if they are unauthorized or fraudulent.

Medallion Signature Guarantees and Other Documentation

If redemption proceeds are $50,000 or less and are to be paid to an individual shareholder of record at the address of record, a Medallion signature guarantee is not required (unless there has been an address change within 30 days). All other redemption requests and changes in account application instructions must be guaranteed by a bank, securities broker/dealer, municipal securities broker/dealer, government securities broker/dealer, credit union, member firm of a national securities exchange, registered securities association or clearing agency, and/or savings association. The Fund reserves the right to waive the signature guarantee requirement at any time. A Medallion signature guarantee cannot be provided by a notary public. Please note that you must obtain a Medallion signature guarantee from a participant in the Securities Transfer Association Medallion Program. Approved programs currently include STAMP, SEMP and MSP. If you live outside the United States, a foreign bank properly authorized in your country of residence or a U.S. consulate may be able to authenticate your signature.

When a Medallion signature guarantee is required, the signature of each shareholder of record must be guaranteed. A redemption request from corporate, trust, and partnership accounts, and executors, administrators and guardians must be signed by an appropriately authorized person and include additional documents to verify the authority of the person seeking redemption, such as a certified by-law provision or resolution of the board of directors or trustees of the shareholder and/or a copy of the governing legal instrument. In order to avoid delays in processing redemption requests for these accounts, you should call the Fund at 1-800-245-7311 before making the redemption request to determine what documents are needed. In addition, any other person requiring information on redemption procedures may call the Fund at 1-800-245-7311.

Short-Term and Excessive Trading

The Fund is intended for long-term investment purposes only and is not intended to provide investors with a means of speculation on short-term market movements or market timing. The Fund will take reasonable steps to seek to prevent short-term and excessive trading. Short-term and excessive trading into and out of the Fund may present risks to other shareholders, disrupt portfolio investment strategies, increase expenses including trading and administrative costs, and negatively impact investment returns for all shareholders and result in dilution in the value of Fund shares held by shareholders, including long-term shareholders who do not generate these costs. These risks may be more pronounced for the Fund since it invests in securities that may be more difficult to value or are susceptible to pricing arbitrage (e.g., micro-cap, small-cap, thinly traded and foreign securities). In an effort to protect long-term shareholders, the Board of Trustees has adopted policies and procedures that seek to deter short-term and excessive trading. As discussed in “How to Redeem Shares,” the Fund imposes a 2.00% redemption fee on shares redeemed or exchanged within 90 days of purchase. In addition, the Fund reserves the right to reject any purchase request (including exchanges) by any investor or group of

investors for any reason without prior notice, including, in particular, if it believes the trading activity in the account(s) would be disruptive to the Fund. For example, the Fund may refuse a purchase order if the portfolio manager believes he would be unable to invest the money effectively in accordance with the Fund’s investment policies or the Fund would otherwise be adversely affected due to the size of the transaction, frequency of trading or other factors. Transactions placed in violation of the Fund’s excessive trading policy are not deemed accepted by the Fund and may be cancelled or revoked by the Fund on the next business day following receipt by the Fund. The Fund also reserves the right to honor certain redemptions, with securities, rather than cash.

The trading history of accounts under common ownership or control within any of The Oberweis Funds may be considered in enforcing this policy. Transactions placed through the same financial intermediary on an omnibus basis may be deemed a part of a group for purposes of this policy and may be rejected in whole or in part by the Fund. However, the Fund cannot always identify or reasonably detect short-term and excessive trading or market timing that may be facilitated by financial intermediaries or made difficult to identify through the use of omnibus accounts by those intermediaries that transmit purchase, exchange and redemption orders of the Fund. Transactions accepted by a financial intermediary in violation of the Fund’s excessive trading policy are not deemed accepted by the Fund and may be cancelled or revoked by the Fund on the next business day following receipt by the financial intermediary. There is no assurance that the Fund’s policies will be effective in limiting and deterring short-term and excessive trading or market timing in all circumstances.

Anti-Money Laundering Program

The Fund is required to comply with various federal anti-money laundering laws and regulations. Consequently, the Fund may be required to “freeze” the account of a shareholder if the shareholder appears to be involved in suspicious activity or if certain account information matches information on government lists of known terrorists or other suspicious persons, or the Fund may be required to transfer the account or proceeds of the account to a government agency. The Fund may also be required to reject a purchase payment, block a shareholder’s account and consequently refuse to implement requests for transfers and withdrawals.

Federal law requires the Fund to obtain, verify and record identifying information, which may include the name, street address, taxpayer identification number or other identifying information for shareholders who open an account with the Fund. The Fund may also ask to see a shareholder’s driver’s license or other identifying documents. Applications without this information may not be accepted and orders may not be processed. The Fund reserves the right to place limits on transactions in any account until the identity of the shareholder is verified; to refuse an investment in the Fund or involuntarily redeem a shareholder’s shares and close an account in the event that a shareholder’s identity is not verified; or suspend the payment of withdrawal proceeds if it is deemed necessary to comply with anti-money laundering regulations. The Fund and its agents will not be responsible for any loss resulting from

the shareholder’s delay in providing all required identifying information or from closing an account and redeeming a shareholder’s shares when a shareholder’s identity cannot be verified.

Transactions through The Oberweis Funds’ Web Site

You may check your Fund account balance(s) and historical transactions in an existing account through The Oberweis Funds’ Web site at www.oberweisfunds.com. You automatically have the ability to view account balances and transactions by enrolling on the Web site.

You will be required to enter into a user’s agreement through the Web site in order to enroll for these privileges.

You should be aware that the Internet is an unsecured, unstable, unregulated and unpredictable environment. Your ability to use the Web site is dependent upon the Internet and equipment, software, systems, data and services provided by various vendors and third parties. While the Fund and its service providers have established certain security procedures, the Fund, OAM, OSI and the Fund’s Transfer Agent cannot assure you that inquiries and account information will be completely secure.

There also may be delays, malfunctions or other inconveniences associated with the Internet, and times when the Web site is unavailable. Neither the Fund, OAM, OSI or UMBFS will be liable for any such delays, malfunctions, or access to information.

Pricing of Fund Shares

All purchases, redemptions and exchanges will be processed at the NAV next calculated after your request is received and accepted by the Fund (or the Fund’s agent or authorized designee). NAV per share is computed by dividing the value of the Fund’s net assets (i.e., the value of its assets less liabilities) by the total number of shares then outstanding.

The Fund’s investments are valued based on market value or, where quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable, on fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees. Since the Fund invests in equity securities of micro-, small- and mid-cap companies, these circumstances may arise, for instance, when trading in a security is suspended or the trading volume in a security is limited, calling into question the reliability of market quotations. The value of fair valued securities may be different from the last reported sale price (or the last reported bid price), and there is no guarantee that a fair valued security will be sold at the price at which the Fund is carrying the security.

The Fund may use a fair valuation model provided by an independent pricing service, which is intended to reflect fair value when a security’s value or a meaningful portion of the Fund’s portfolio is believed to have been materially affected by a significant event that has occurred between the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded and the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The Fund’s valuation policies set forth certain triggers which instruct when to use the

valuation model. The value assigned to a security by the fair valuation model is a determination of fair value made under the Fund’s valuation policies and under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. In such a case, the Fund’s value for a security is likely to be different from the last quoted price.

Foreign currency exchange rates are determined at the close of trading on the NYSE. Occasionally, events affecting the value of foreign investments occur between the time at which they are determined and the close of trading on the NYSE. Such events would not normally be reflected in a calculation of the Fund’s NAV on that day. If events that materially affect the value of the Fund’s foreign investments occur during such period, the investments will be valued at their fair value as described above.

Foreign securities held by the Fund may be traded on days and at times when the NYSE is closed. Accordingly, the value of the Fund’s investments may be significantly affected on days when shareholders have no access to the Fund. For valuation purposes, quotations of foreign portfolio securities, other assets and liabilities, and forward contracts stated in foreign currency are translated into U.S.-dollar equivalents at the prevailing market rates.

If your order in proper form is received (see “How to Purchase Shares” and “How to Redeem Shares”) by the Transfer Agent or OSI by the close of trading on the NYSE on a given day (currently 3:00 p.m., Central Time), or by a securities broker/dealer or its designated agent, a bank or other institution having a sales agreement with OSI by the close of trading on the NYSE, Fund shares will be purchased or sold at the next computed NAV. The NAV of the shares of the Fund is computed once daily, as of the later of the close of regular trading on the NYSE or the Chicago Board Options Exchange (“CBOE”), on each day the NYSE is open for trading. For purposes of computing the NAV, all securities in the Fund other than options are priced as of the close of trading on the NYSE. The options in the Fund are priced as of the close of trading on the CBOE.

Shareholder Services

General Information

In addition to the purchase and redemption services described above, the Fund offers its shareholders the special services described below. You may obtain applications and information about any shareholder services by calling 1-800-245-7311.

When you make an initial investment in the Fund, a shareholder account is opened for you in accordance with the Fund’s Account Application instructions. After each transaction for your account, you will be sent a confirmation. This includes all deposits, purchases, reinvestments, redemptions, withdrawal payments, and other transactions in your account.

You will be the record owner of all shares in your account with full shareholder rights; the Fund does not issue certificates for its shares. Certain functions performed by the Fund in connection with the operation of the accounts described above will be performed by the Fund’s Transfer Agent, UMBFS.

Exchange Privilege

All or part of Fund shares owned by you may be exchanged for shares of any other Oberweis Fund offering shares at that time. Be sure to read the prospectus of the other Oberweis Fund into which you are exchanging. Shares will be exchanged for each other based upon their relative net asset values. Exchange requests into another Oberweis Fund are subject to a $1,000 minimum. Exchanges within 90 days of purchase from the Fund are subject to the applicable redemption fee (see “How to Redeem Shares”).

To take advantage of the Exchange Privilege by mail, you must send us a written request that includes your name, your account number, the name of the Fund, the name of the other Oberweis Fund you wish to exchange into and the dollar amount or number of shares you wish to exchange. Please remember that you cannot place any conditions on your request.

A Medallion signature guarantee is not required, except in some cases where shares are also redeemed for cash at the same time. For information on when you need a Medallion signature guarantee, please see “Redemption by Mail” under “How to Redeem Shares.”

You may also call us at 1-800-245-7311 unless you have previously notified the Fund in writing not to effect telephone exchanges. Exchanges made over the phone may be made by any person, not just the shareholder of record. Please remember that during unusual market conditions, we may have difficulty in accepting telephone requests, in which case you should mail your request to our address. Please see “Purchase by Mail” for our address.

You may exchange shares through The Oberweis Funds’ Web site at www.oberweisfunds.com. To establish online transaction privileges, you must enroll through the Web site. You automatically have the ability to establish online transaction privileges unless you decline them on your Account Application or by calling 1-800-245-7311. For important information on this feature, see “Fund Transactions Through The Oberweis Funds’ Web site.” In addition, you may also be able to make exchanges through certain securities broker/dealers that may charge you a fee for effecting an exchange.

Exchanging shares is available only in states where shares of a particular Oberweis Fund being acquired may legally be sold. The exchange privilege is not a right and may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time. Except as otherwise permitted by applicable regulations, 60 days’ prior written notice of any termination or material change will be provided.

Privacy Notice

This notice describes the privacy practices followed by The Oberweis Funds.

Shareholder privacy is a top priority. The Oberweis Funds’ policy is to respect the privacy of current and former shareholders and to protect personal information entrusted to it. The Oberweis Funds do not share any nonpublic personal information of shareholders or former shareholders with any nonaffiliated third parties, except as permitted by law or as authorized by the shareholders.

In the course of providing products and services to you, The Oberweis Funds collect nonpublic personal information about you from various sources such as account applications or agreements, other account forms, transactions in your account, and from information captured on The Oberweis Funds’ Web site. Such information may include your name, address, account or tax identification number, the types and amounts of investments, and bank account information.

In the normal course of serving shareholders, information The Oberweis Funds collect may be shared with companies that perform various services such as custodians, transfer agents, and broker-dealers. The Oberweis Funds may share information in connection with servicing accounts or to inform shareholders of products and services that it believes may be of interest to shareholders. The organizations that receive shareholder information will use that information only for the services required and as allowed by applicable law or regulation, and are not permitted to share or use this information for any other purposes.

Access to customers’ nonpublic personal information is restricted to employees who need to access that information. The Oberweis Funds use industry standard physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect shareholder information. A shareholder’s right to privacy extends to all forms of contact with The Oberweis Funds, including telephone, written correspondence, and electronic media, such as the Internet.

For questions concerning this policy, please write or call The Oberweis Funds.

DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES

Taxation of the Fund

The Fund intends to elect to be treated and qualify as a regulated investment company for federal income tax purposes. As a regulated investment company, the Fund generally pays no federal income tax on the income and gains that it distributes to you.

Taxation of Shareholders

To avoid taxation, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), requires that the Fund distribute its net investment income and any net capital gains realized on its investments annually. The Fund’s income from certain dividends, interest and any net realized short-term capital gains are paid to shareholders as

dividends. The Fund’s income from certain qualifying dividends, that are designated as such by the Fund, will be paid to shareholders as “qualified dividend income,” provided certain holding period and other requirements are satisfied by the Fund and shareholder. Net realized long-term capital gains are paid to shareholders as capital gains distributions. The dividends and capital gain distributions are normally declared and paid in December.

Except for those shareholders exempt from federal income taxation, dividends and capital gain distributions will be taxable to shareholders, whether paid in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the Fund. You will be notified annually as to the federal income tax status of dividends and capital gains distributions. Such dividends and distributions may also be subject to state and local taxes.

Long-term capital gain distributions (generally relating to assets held by the Fund for more than 12 months) are taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gain regardless of how long you have held shares of the Fund. For federal income tax purposes, long-term capital gain distributions made to individual shareholders are currently taxed at rates up to 20%. Dividends representing certain net investment income and net realized short-term capital gains are taxed as ordinary income at federal income tax rates up to 39.6% for individuals. Dividends representing “qualified dividend income” received by individual and other noncorporate shareholders are currently taxed at federal income tax rates up to 20%. Dividends from foreign corporations are not treated as “qualified dividend income” if the foreign corporation is not incorporated in a possession of the United States or is not eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States (unless the foreign corporation stock is readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States) or if the foreign corporation is a passive foreign investment company. Any dividends and distributions declared in October, November or December to shareholders of record as of a date in one of those months and paid during the following January are treated for federal income tax purposes as paid on December 31 of the calendar year in which they are declared.

Dividends and capital gains distributions are automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Fund, unless you elect to receive them in cash. A cash election remains in effect until you notify the Transfer Agent by calling or writing to discontinue such election.

If you redeem or exchange shares of the Fund (other than shares held in a tax-advantaged account), it is generally considered a taxable event for you. Depending on the purchase price and the sale price of the shares you redeem or exchange, you may have a gain or loss on the transaction. The gain or loss will generally be treated as a long-term capital gain or loss if you held your shares for more than one year. If you held your shares for one year or less, the gain or loss will generally be treated as a short-term capital gain or loss. You may be limited in your ability to use capital losses.

An additional 3.8% Medicare tax is imposed on certain net investment income (including dividends and capital gain distributions received from the Fund and net

gains from redemptions or other taxable dispositions of Fund shares) of U.S. individuals, estates and trusts to the extent that such person’s “modified adjusted gross income” (in the case of an individual) or “adjusted gross income” (in the case of an estate or trust) exceeds a threshold amount.

Distribution to Retirement Plans

How Distributions Affect the Fund’s NAV

Distributions are paid to shareholders as of the record date of a distribution of the Fund. Dividends and capital gains awaiting distribution are included in the Fund’s daily NAV. The share price of the Fund drops by the amount of the distribution, net of any subsequent market fluctuations. You should be aware that distributions from a mutual fund are not value-enhancing and may create income tax obligations.

“Buying a Dividend”

If you purchase shares of the Fund shortly before a distribution, you will pay the full price for the shares and may receive a portion of the purchase price back as a taxable distribution. This is referred to as “buying a dividend.” Of course, the Fund’s share price may, at any time, reflect undistributed capital gains or income and unrealized appreciation, which may result in future taxable distributions. Such distributions can occur even in a year when the Fund has a negative return.

Unless your account is set up as a tax-advantaged account, dividends paid to you will be included in your gross income for federal income tax purposes, even though you may not have participated in the increase in NAV of the Fund and whether or not you reinvested the dividends.

Backup Withholding

When you open an account, Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) regulations require that you provide your taxpayer identification number (“TIN”), certify that it is correct, and certify that you are not subject to backup withholding under IRS rules. If you fail to provide your TIN or the proper tax certifications, the Fund is required to withhold 28% of all the distributions (including dividends and capital gain distributions) and redemption proceeds paid to you. The Fund is also required to begin backup withholding on your account if the IRS instructs it to do so. Amounts withheld may be applied to your federal income tax liability and you may obtain a refund from the IRS if withholding results in overpayment of taxes for such year.

Foreign Taxes

Dividends, interest, and some capital gains received by the Fund on foreign securities may be subject to tax withholding or other foreign taxes. If applicable, the Fund may from year to year make the election permitted under section 853 of the Code to pass through such taxes to shareholders. In such event, shareholders will be required to treat as part of the amounts distributed to them, their pro rata portion of such taxes, and may claim a credit or deduction for such taxes, subject in each case to certain limitations contained in the Code. If such an election is not made, any foreign taxes paid or accrued will represent an expense to the Fund.

You are advised to consult your own tax adviser as to the federal, state, local and/or foreign tax consequences of owning shares of the Fund with respect to your specific circumstances.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The financial highlights table is intended to help you understand the Fund’s financial performance since commencement of operations. Certain information reflects financial results for a single Fund share. The total return in the table represents the rate that an investor would have saved (or lost) on an investment in the Fund (assuming reinvestment or all dividends and distributions). The information has been derived from financial statements audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, whose report, along with the Fund’s financial statements, is included in the Annual Report, which is available upon request and incorporated by reference to the Statement of Additional Information.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES

The following information supplements the discussion of each Fund’s investment objective and policies discussed in the Funds’ Prospectus.

Investment Objective

The investment objective of each of the Oberweis Emerging Growth Fund (the “Emerging Growth Fund”), the Oberweis Micro-Cap Fund (the “Micro-Cap Fund”) and the Oberweis Small-Cap Opportunities Fund (the “Small-Cap Opportunities Fund”) is to maximize capital appreciation. The investment objective of each of the Oberweis International Opportunities Fund (the “International Opportunities Fund”), the Oberweis China Opportunities Fund (the “China Opportunities Fund”), and the Oberweis Asia Opportunities Fund (the “Asia Opportunities Fund”) is to maximize long-term capital appreciation. Each Fund intends to achieve its objective through investing primarily in common stocks of companies, which in the opinion of its investment adviser have a potential for above-average long-term growth in market value. The investment objective of each Fund is fundamental and, like all fundamental policies of a Fund, cannot be changed without the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of that Fund. As used in this SAI, “a majority of the outstanding voting securities” of a Fund means the lesser of (1) the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund, or (2) the holders of more than 67% of the shares of the Fund present if more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund are present at a meeting in person or by proxy.

The policies set forth below may be changed by the Trust’s Board of Trustees without shareholder approval, all such changes being subject to applicable law. Each of the International Opportunities Fund, the China Opportunities Fund and the Asia Opportunities Fund individually may not:

1. invest in illiquid securities if, as a result of such investment, more than 15% of its net assets would be invested in illiquid securities;

2. sell securities short, unless the Fund owns or has the right to obtain securities equivalent in kind and amount to the securities sold short, or unless it covers such short sale as required by the current rules and positions of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff and provided that transactions in futures contracts or other derivative instruments are not deemed to constitute selling securities short; or

3. purchase securities on margin, except that the Fund may obtain such short-term credits as are necessary for the clearance of transactions; and provided that margin deposits in connection with futures contracts or other derivative instruments shall not constitute purchasing securities on margin.

If a percentage restriction is adhered to at the time of investment, a later change in percentage resulting from changes in values or assets will not be considered a violation of such restriction nor will a disposition of any securities be required.

Other Restrictions

Other investment restrictions are set forth in the Funds’ Prospectus and elsewhere in this SAI. In addition, each of the Emerging Growth Fund, the Micro-Cap Fund and the Small-Cap Opportunities Fund will not invest more than 10% of its total assets in “restricted securities” (meaning securities the resale of which is legally or contractually restricted, including repurchase agreements with maturities of seven days or more and securities that are not readily marketable).

Investment Strategies and Risks

The following information supplements the discussion of the Funds’ risk factors, discussed in the Funds’ Prospectus.

investment opportunities, a Fund’s cash or other similar investments may increase. Securities that the Funds may invest in as a means of receiving a return on idle cash include U.S. government obligations, certificates of deposit, commercial paper (rated prime 3 or better by Moody’s Investor Services, Inc., (“Moody’s”) or the equivalent), corporate debt securities (rated A or better by Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s Corporation) and repurchase agreements.

Repurchase Agreements. Each Fund may enter into so-called “repurchase agreements,” whereby it purchases a security and the seller (a qualified bank or securities dealer) simultaneously commits to repurchase that security at a certain date at an agreed upon price, plus an agreed upon market rate of interest that is unrelated to the coupon rate or date of maturity of the security. This technique offers a method of earning income on idle cash. In these transactions, the securities purchased by the Fund have, at all times, a total value in excess of the value of the repurchase agreement and are held by the Trust’s custodian bank until repurchased. Certain costs may be incurred by a Fund in connection with the sale of the securities purchased by it if the seller does not repurchase them in accordance with the repurchase agreement. OAM will consider on an ongoing basis the creditworthiness of the institutions with which it enters into repurchase agreements and will monitor the value of the underlying securities to ensure that additional securities are deposited by the seller if the value of the securities purchased decreases below the resale price at any time. Under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), repurchase agreements may be considered loans by the Funds. Each of the Emerging Growth Fund, the Micro-Cap Fund and the Small-Cap Opportunities Fund is subject to restrictions on entering into repurchase agreements in excess of 25% of its total assets and on investing more than 5% of its total assets in repurchase agreements with maturities of seven days or more.

Options. Selling (or Writing) Covered Call Options—Each Fund may write (sell) covered call options on its portfolio securities, the aggregate market value of which underlying securities is limited to 50% of the Fund’s net assets. A call option gives the buyer (holder) the right to purchase the underlying security at a specified price (the “exercise price”) within a certain time period. Where the writer (seller) of the option, in this case a Fund, already owns the underlying security, the call option is considered to be “covered.” The Fund will receive a premium, which is the market value of the option, when it writes (sells) a call option. The premium provides a partial hedge (protection) against declining prices and enables the Fund to generate a higher return during periods when OAM does not expect the underlying security to make any major price moves in the near future but still deems the underlying security to be, over the long term, an attractive investment for the Fund. In determining whether to write (sell) a covered call option on one of the Fund’s securities, OAM will consider the reasonableness of the anticipated premium in relation to the anticipated increase in market value of the underlying security over the option period. Although the writing (selling) of covered call options is believed by OAM to be a conservative investment technique that involves relatively little risk, risks involved in writing (selling) a covered call option include the possible inability to effect closing transactions at favorable prices and the inability to participate in any appreciation of the underlying security above the exercise price plus premium. The Fund may also be exposed to a possible price decrease in the underlying security that might otherwise have been sold while the Fund continues to hold such underlying security during the option period, although any such loss during such period would be reduced by the amount of the premium received. The Funds do not consider a security covered by a call to be “pledged” as that term is used in each Fund’s investment policy limiting the pledging or mortgaging of its assets.

Buying Put and Call Options—Each Fund may also invest up to 5% of its assets in the purchase of put and call options, primarily to minimize principal fluctuations. The Funds may enter into closing transactions, exercise their options or permit them to expire. The risks involved in purchasing put or call options include the possible loss of the premium.

The Funds may purchase put options on an underlying security owned by them. As the holder of a put option, a Fund would have the right to sell the underlying security at the exercise price at any time during the term of the option. While a Fund will not purchase options for leverage purposes, it may purchase put options for defensive purposes in order to protect against an anticipated decline (usually short-term) in the value of its

securities. Such hedge protection is provided only during the life of the put option and only when the Fund, as the holder of the put option, is able to sell the underlying security at the put exercise price regardless of any additional decline in the security’s market price. For example, a put option may be purchased in order to protect unrealized appreciation of a security where the Fund deems it desirable to continue to hold the security. The premium paid for the put option and any transaction costs would reduce any capital gain otherwise available for distribution when the security is eventually sold.

Except as discussed below with respect to options on stock indices, each Fund has no current intention of purchasing put options at a time when the Fund does not own the underlying security; however, it reserves the right to do so. By purchasing put options on a security it does not own, the Fund would seek to benefit from a decline in the market price of the underlying security. If such a put option is not sold when it has remaining value, and if the market of the underlying security remains equal to or greater than the exercise price during the life of the put option, the Fund would lose its entire investment in the put option (i.e., the entire premium paid by the Fund). In order for the purchase of a put option to be profitable, the market price of the underlying security must decline sufficiently below the exercise price to cover the premium and transaction costs, unless the put option is sold in a closing sale transaction.

The Funds may also repurchase call options previously written on underlying securities they already own in order to preserve unrealized gains.

The Funds may also purchase call and put options on stock indices (“stock index options”) for the purpose, in part, of partially hedging against the risk of unfavorable price movements adversely affecting a Fund’s securities or securities the Fund intends to buy and each Fund may sell stock index options in related closing transactions.

The principal uses of stock index options would be to provide a partial hedge for a portion of a Fund’s investment securities, and to offer a cash management tool. Purchasing stock index options could provide an efficient way to implement a partial decrease in portfolio market exposure in response to changing market conditions. Although techniques other than the purchase of options could be used to hedge a Fund’s investments, the Funds may be able to hedge their exposure more effectively, and perhaps at a lower cost, through the use of stock index options.

The Funds propose to invest only in stock index options for which the underlying index is a broad market index such as the Standard & Poor’s Index, the Major Market Index, or the Russell 2000 Index. The Funds would propose to purchase broad stock index options only if they are listed on a national securities exchange and traded, in the opinion of the Funds’ investment adviser, with some significant volume.

A Fund will not enter into a stock index option if, as a result thereof, more than five percent (5%) of the Fund’s total assets (taken at market value at the time of entering into the contract) would be committed to options, whether options on individual securities or options on stock indices.

There are several risks in connection with the Funds’ use of stock index options as a hedging device. One risk arises because of the imperfect correlation between movements in the prices of the stock index options and movements in the prices of securities held by the Funds. Successful use of stock index options by the Funds for hedging purposes is also subject to the Funds’ adviser’s ability to correctly predict movements in the direction of the market. In addition, due to market distortions, the price movements of the stock index options might not correlate perfectly with price movements in the underlying stock index. Increased participation by speculators in the options market might also cause temporary price distortions.

(iii) trading halts, suspensions or other restrictions imposed with respect to particular classes or series of options, or underlying securities; (iv) unusual or unforeseen circumstances, such as severe stock market fluctuations, interrupting normal exchange operations; (v) inadequacy of an exchange’s or a clearing corporation’s facilities to handle increased trading volume; or (vi) discontinuance of the trading of options (or a particular class or series of options) by an exchange, for economic or other reasons. Higher than anticipated trading activity or other unforeseen events also could cause an exchange or clearing corporation to institute special procedures which may interfere with the timely execution of customers’ orders.

Stock index options may be closed out only on an exchange which provides a market for such options. For example, OEX stock index options currently can be purchased or sold only on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (“CBOE”). Although the Funds intend to purchase or sell stock index options only on exchanges where there appear to be active markets, there is no assurance that a liquid market will exist for any particular options contract at any particular time. In such event, it might not be possible to close a stock index option position.

Lending of Securities. The Funds may lend their investment securities in an amount up to 30% of its total assets (including value of collateral received) to qualified institutional investors who need to borrow securities in order to complete certain transactions. By lending its investment securities, a Fund attempts to increase its income through the receipt of interest on the loan. While the securities are being lent, the Funds will continue to receive the equivalent of any dividends or interest paid by the issuer thereof as well as interest on the collateral. Any gain or loss in the market price of the securities loaned that might occur during the term of the loan would be for the account of the Fund.

A Fund may lend its portfolio securities to qualified brokers, dealers, domestic and foreign banks or other financial institutions, so long as the terms and the structure of such loans are not inconsistent with the 1940 Act, or the Rules and Regulations or interpretations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) thereunder, which currently require that (a) the borrower pledge and maintain with the Fund collateral consisting of cash, an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a domestic U.S. bank, or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government having a value at all times of not less than 100% of the value of the securities loaned, (b) the borrower add to such collateral whenever the price of the securities loaned rises (i.e., the borrower “marks to the market” on a daily basis), (c) the loan be made subject to termination by the Fund at any time, (d) the Fund receives reasonable interest on the loan or its collateral (which may include the Fund investing any cash collateral in interest-bearing short-term investments), any dividends and distributions paid on the loaned securities and any increase in their market value, and (e) while voting rights on the loaned securities may pass to the borrower, the Board of Trustees be able to terminate the loan and regain the right to vote the securities if a material event adversely affecting the investment occurs.

As with any extension of credit, portfolio security loans involve certain risks in the event a borrower should fail financially, including delays or inability to recover the loaned securities or foreclosure against the collateral. Each Fund will consider on an ongoing basis the creditworthiness of the borrowers to which it makes portfolio security loans.

Foreign Securities. Foreign securities involve currency risks. The U.S. Dollar value of a foreign security tends to decrease when the value of the U.S. Dollar rises against the foreign currency in which the security is denominated and tends to increase when the value of the U.S. Dollar falls against such currency. Fluctuations in exchange rates may also affect the earning power and asset value of the foreign entity issuing the security. Dividend and interest payments may be repatriated based upon the exchange rate at the time of disbursement or payment, and restrictions on capital flows may be imposed. Losses and other expenses may be incurred in converting between various currencies.

predicting international trade patterns and the possible imposition of exchange controls. The prices of such securities may be more volatile than those of domestic securities and the markets for such securities may be less liquid. In addition, there may be less publicly available information about foreign issuers than about domestic issuers. Many foreign issuers are not subject to uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. There is generally less regulation of stock exchanges, brokers, banks and listed companies abroad than in the United States. With respect to certain foreign countries, there is a possibility of expropriation or diplomatic developments that could affect investment in these countries.

China Securities. For the China Opportunities Fund and investments by the International Opportunities and Asia Opportunities Funds in China, investing in securities of issuers in The People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong or Taiwan (collectively, referred to as “China”) involves special risks. First, the Fund’s investment focus on that region makes the Fund particularly subject to political, social, or economic conditions experienced in that region. Second, The People’s Republic of China and Taiwan constitute so-called “developing” or “emerging” economies and markets. Additional risks of investment in such markets include (i) less social, political, and economic stability; (ii) the smaller size of the securities markets in such countries and the lower volume of trading, which may result in a lack of liquidity and in greater price volatility; (iii) certain national policies which may restrict the Fund’s investment opportunities, including restrictions on investment in issuers or industries deemed sensitive to national interests, or expropriation or confiscation of assets or property, which could result in the Fund’s loss of its entire investment in that market; and (iv) less developed legal structures governing private or foreign investment or allowing for judicial redress for injury to private property.

In addition to the risks of investing in China discussed in the Prospectus, investors should know that China’s securities markets have less regulation, are substantially smaller, less liquid and more volatile than the securities markets of more developed countries. Financial information on companies listed on these markets is limited and may be inaccurate. Companies listed on these markets may trade at prices not consistent with traditional valuation measures. Management of these companies could have conflicting financial interests or little experience managing a business.

Emerging Markets Companies. The Emerging Growth Fund, the China Opportunities Fund (as discussed above), the International Opportunities and Asia Opportunities Funds may invest in securities of issuers in developing or emerging markets. Developing countries lack the social, political and economic stability characteristic of the United States. Political instability among emerging markets countries can be common and may be caused by an uneven distribution of wealth, social unrest, labor strikes, civil wars and religious oppression. Economic instability in emerging markets countries may take the form of (i) high interest rates, (ii) high levels of inflation, including hyperinflation, (iii) high levels of unemployment or underemployment, (iv) changes in government economic and tax policies, including confiscatory taxation, and (v) imposition of trade barriers.

Currencies of emerging markets countries are subject to significantly greater risks than currencies of developed countries. Many emerging markets countries have experienced steady declines or sudden devaluations of their currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. Some emerging markets countries have experienced deficits and shortages in foreign exchange reserves. Governments have responded by restricting currency conversions. Future restrictive exchange controls could prevent or restrict the ability of an issuer in such market to make dividend or interest payments in the original currency of the obligation. In addition, even though the currencies of some emerging markets countries may be convertible into U.S. dollars, the conversion rates may be artificial to their actual market values.

foreign creditors. Either due to an inability to pay or submission to political pressure, foreign governments have been forced to seek a restructuring of their loan and/or bond obligations or have declared a temporary suspension of interest payments or have defaulted. These events have adversely affected the values of securities issued by foreign governments and companies in emerging markets countries and have negatively impacted not only their cost of borrowing, but their ability to borrow in the future as well.

Many emerging markets countries suffer from uncertainty and corruption in their legal frameworks. Legislation may be difficult to interpret and laws may be too new to provide any precedential value. Laws regarding foreign investment and private property may be weak or non-existent. Sudden change in governments may result in policies which are less favorable to investors such as policies designed to expropriate or nationalize “sovereign” assets. Certain emerging markets countries in the past have expropriated large amounts of private property, in may cases with little or no compensation, and there can be no assurance that such expropriation will not occur in the future.

Warrants. Each Fund may invest no more than 5% of its total assets in warrants, and of that amount, no more than 2% of total assets may be invested in warrants that are listed on neither the New York Stock Exchange nor the American Stock Exchange. Warrants are securities giving the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy the stock of an issuer at a given price (generally higher than the value of the stock at the time of issuance) during a specified period or perpetually. Warrants may be acquired separately or in connection with the acquisition of securities. Warrants do not carry with them the right to dividends or voting rights with respect to the securities that they entitle their holder to purchase and they do not represent any rights in the assets of the issuer. As a result, warrants may be considered to have more speculative characteristics than certain other types of investments. In addition, the value of a warrant does not necessarily change with the value of the underlying securities and a warrant ceases to have value if it is not exercised prior to its expiration date.

Real Estate Investment Trusts. Each Fund may invest in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). REITs are subject to volatility from risks associated with investments in real estate and investments dependent on income from real estate, such as fluctuating demand for real estate and sensitivity to adverse economic conditions. In addition, the failure of a REIT to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes would have an adverse effect upon the value of a Fund’s investment in that REIT. Each Fund may invest no more than 10% of its total assets in REITs. Each Fund does not currently intend, however, to invest in REITs to the extent that more than 5% of its total assets will be invested in REITs during the current year.

Short Sales. Each Fund may make short sales against the box. A short sale “against the box” is a short sale in which a Fund owns at least an equal amount of the securities sold short or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, without payment of any further consideration, securities of the same issue as, and at least equal in amount to, the securities sold short. Each Fund does not currently intend to engage in short sales to the extent that more than 5% of its net assets will be held as collateral therefor during the current year.

Each of the International Opportunities Fund, the China Opportunities Fund and the Asia Opportunities Fund may make short sales if it “covers” the securities sold short with cash or other liquid securities.

Equity-Linked Certificates. The Emerging Growth Fund, China Opportunities Fund and Asia Opportunities Fund may invest in equity-linked certificates issued and/or guaranteed by counterparties rated A or better by Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s Corporation or issued and/or guaranteed by counterparties deemed to be of similar quality by OAM. Equity-linked certificates, also referred to as Participatory Notes, generally are issued by banks or broker-dealers and are promissory notes that are designed to offer a return linked to the performance of a particular underlying foreign equity security or market. Each Fund may invest in equity-linked certificates linked to the performances of foreign securities in countries in which the Fund may invest, including, as applicable, but not limited to China and to a lesser extent, India. The return on an equity-linked certificate that is linked to a particular underlying security generally is increased to the extent of any dividends paid in connection with the underlying security. However, the holder of an equity-linked certificate typically does not receive voting

rights as it would if it directly owned the underlying security. Equity-linked certificates constitute direct, general and unsecured contractual obligations of the banks or broker-dealers that issue them, which therefore subjects the Fund to counterparty risk, as discussed below.

Investments in equity-linked certificates involve certain risks in addition to those associated with a direct investment in the underlying foreign companies or foreign securities markets whose return they seek to replicate. For instance, there can be no assurance that there will be a trading market for an equity-linked certificate or that the trading price of an equity-linked certificate will equal the underlying value of the foreign company or foreign securities market that it seeks to replicate. As the purchaser of an equity-linked certificate, a Fund is relying on the creditworthiness of the counterparty issuing and/or guaranteeing the equity-linked certificate and has no rights under an equity-linked certificate against the issuer of the underlying security. Therefore, if such counterparty were to become insolvent, a Fund would lose its investment. The risk that a Fund may lose its investment due to the insolvency of a counterparty may be amplified because the Fund may purchase equity-linked certificates issued by as few as one issuer. Equity-linked certificates also include transaction costs in addition to those applicable to a direct investment in foreign securities.

Due to liquidity and transfer restrictions, the secondary markets on which equity-linked certificates are traded may be less liquid than the markets for other securities, or may be completely illiquid, which may lead to the absence of readily available market quotations for securities in a Fund’s portfolio and which may also lead to delays in the redemption of Fund shares. In addition, the ability of a Fund to value its securities becomes more difficult and the judgment in the application of fair value procedures may play a greater role in the valuation of the Fund’s securities due to reduced availability of reliable objective pricing data. Consequently, while such determinations will be made in good faith, it may nevertheless be more difficult for the Fund to accurately assign a daily value to such securities.

The price of an equity-linked certificate is derived from the value of the underlying linked securities. The level and type of risk involved in the purchase of an equity-linked certificate by the Fund is similar to the risk involved in the purchase of the underlying security or other emerging market securities. Such certificates therefore may be considered to have speculative elements. However, equity-linked certificates are also dependent on the individual credit of the issuer of the certificate, which may be a trust or other special purpose vehicle or finance subsidiary established by a major financial institution for the limited purpose of issuing the certificate.

Equity-linked certificates are often privately placed and may not be rated, in which case a Fund will be more dependent on the ability of OAM to evaluate the creditworthiness of the issuer and/or guarantor, the underlying security, any collateral features of the certificate, and the potential for loss due to market and other factors. Ratings of issuers of equity-linked certificates refer only to the creditworthiness of the issuer and strength of related collateral arrangements or other credit supports, and do not take into account, or attempt to rate, any potential risks of the underlying linked securities. Depending upon the law of the jurisdiction in which an issuer is organized and the certificate is issued, in the event of default, a Fund may incur additional expenses in seeking recovery under an equity-linked certificate, and may have more limited methods of legal recourse in attempting to do so.

As with any investment, a Fund can lose the entire amount it has invested in an equity-linked certificate. The secondary market for equity-linked certificates may be limited. The lack of a liquid secondary market and restrictions on available purchasers may have an adverse effect on the ability of a Fund to accurately value the equity-linked certificates in its portfolio, and may make disposal of such securities more difficult for the Fund.

Convertible Securities and Preferred Stocks. Each Fund may invest in convertible securities and preferred stocks. There are no restrictions on the credit quality of the convertible securities and preferred stocks in which the Funds may invest and the Funds may invest in convertible securities and preferred stocks that are not rated or that are below investment grade.

A convertible security is a fixed-income security (a debt instrument or a preferred stock) that may be converted at a stated price within a specified period of time into a certain quantity of the common stock of the same or a different issuer. Convertible securities are senior to common stocks in an issuer’s capital structure, but are usually subordinated to similar non-convertible securities. While providing a fixed-income stream (generally higher in yield than the income derivable from common stock but lower than that afforded by a similar nonconvertible security), a convertible security also gives an investor the opportunity, through its conversion feature, to participate in the capital appreciation of the issuing company depending upon a market price advance in the convertible security’s underlying common stock.

A preferred stock is a blend of the characteristics of a bond and common stock. It can offer the higher yield of a bond and has priority over common stock in equity ownership, but does not have the seniority of a bond and, unlike common stock, its participation in the issuer’s growth may be limited. Preferred stock has preference over common stock in the receipt of dividends and in any residual assets after payment to creditors should the issuer be dissolved. Although the dividend is set at a fixed annual rate, in some circumstances it can be changed or omitted by the issuer.

Arbitrage. The Funds have no current intention to engage in arbitrage (meaning the simultaneous purchase and sale of the same security in different markets but not on the purchase of call and put options on stock indices).

Cyber Security Risk. Investment companies such as the Funds and their service providers may be prone to operational and information security risks resulting from cyber-attacks. Cyber-attacks include, among other behaviors, stealing or corrupting data maintained online or digitally, denial of service attacks on websites, the unauthorized release of confidential information or various other forms of cyber security breaches. Cyber security attacks affecting a Fund or its adviser, custodian, transfer agent or other third party service providers may adversely impact the Fund. For instance, cyber-attacks may interfere with the processing of shareholder transactions, impact a Fund’s ability to calculate its NAV, cause the release of private shareholder information or confidential company information, impede trading, subject the Fund to regulatory fines or financial losses and cause reputational damage. The Funds may also incur additional costs for cyber security risk management purposes. Similar types of cyber security risks are also present for issuers of securities in which the Funds may invest, which could result in material adverse consequences for such issuers, and may cause a Fund’s investment in such issuers to lose value.

Portfolio Turnover. OAM buys and sells securities for each Fund to accomplish its investment objective. The frequency of portfolio transactions, the Fund’s turnover rate, will vary from year to year depending on market conditions.

The Emerging Growth Fund’s turnover during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was 95%, 70%, and 54%, respectively; the Micro-Cap Fund’s turnover during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was 141%, 71%, and 48%, respectively; the Small-Cap Opportunities Fund’s turnover during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was 107%, 134%, and 99%, respectively; the International Opportunities Fund’s turnover during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was 212%, 176%, and 280%, respectively; the China Opportunities Fund’s turnover during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was 127%, 140%, and 115%, respectively; and the Asia Opportunities Fund during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was 187%, 241%, and 169%, respectively. A higher portfolio turnover rate (over 100%) may cause a Fund to pay higher transaction expenses, including more commissions and markups, and also may result in quicker recognition of capital gains, resulting in more capital gains distributions that may be taxable to Shareholders.

Board Structure

The Trust’s Board of Trustees manages the business affairs of the Trust. The trustees establish policies and review and approve contracts and their continuance. The trustees regularly request and/or receive reports from the Adviser, the Trust’s other service providers and the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer. The Board is comprised of four trustees, three of whom are independent trustees. Although the trustees have not appointed a chairperson from among them, Mr. Oberweis, an interested trustee, typically presides at meetings of the Board. The non-interested trustees also have not appointed a lead non-interested trustee from among them. The Board has established three standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Nominating Committee and a Pricing

Committee. Each of the Audit Committee and the Nominating Committee is comprised of all three non-interested trustees. All of the trustees are members of the Pricing Committee. The Audit Committee recommends the selection of an independent registered public accounting firm for the Trust; reviews with such independent registered public accountants the planning, scope and results of their audit of the Funds’ financial statements and the fee for services performed; reviews financial statements of the Funds; and receives audit reports. The Nominating Committee is responsible for the identification and recommendation of individuals for Board membership. The Pricing Committee is responsible for determining the fair value of illiquid securities, securities for which market quotations are not readily available, and securities for which current market values may be unreliable, subject to conformance with the Trust’s Procedures for Valuing Securities and with Board oversight. The Trust’s day-to-day operations are managed by the Adviser and other service providers. The Board and the committees meet periodically throughout the year to review the Trust’s activities, including, among others, Fund performance, valuation matters and compliance with regulatory requirements, and to review contractual arrangements with service providers. The Board has determined that the Trust’s leadership structure is appropriate given the number, size and nature of the funds in the fund complex.

The Audit Committee held two meetings in 2014.

The Nominating Committee did not meet in 2014. The Nominating Committee has established procedures for shareholders to submit recommendations for names to the Board. Recommendations for Board candidates should be submitted directly to the Nominating Committee of the Trust, care of the Trust, 3333 Warrenville Road, Suite 500, Lisle, Illinois 60532.

The Pricing Committee held three meetings in 2014.

Risk Oversight

Consistent with its responsibility for oversight of the Trust and its Funds, the Board, among other things, oversees risk management of each Fund’s investment program and business affairs directly and through the committee structure that it has established. Risks to the Funds include, among others, investment risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, valuation risk and operational risk, as well as the overall business risk relating to the Funds. The Board has adopted, and periodically reviews, policies and procedures designed to address these risks. Under the overall supervision of the Board, the Adviser and other services providers to the Funds also have implemented a variety of processes, procedures and controls to address these risks. Different processes, procedures and controls are employed with respect to different types of risks. These processes include those that are embedded in the conduct of regular business by the Board and in the responsibilities of officers of the Trust and other service providers.

The Board requires senior officers of the Trust, including the President, Treasurer and Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”), to report to the full Board on a variety of matters at regular and special meetings of the Board and its committees, as applicable, including matters relating to risk management. The Treasurer also reports to the Audit Committee on the Trust’s internal controls and accounting and financial reporting policies and practices. The Audit Committee also receives reports from the Trust’s independent registered public accounting firm on internal control and financial reporting matters. On at least an annual basis, the Board receives a report from the CCO regarding the effectiveness of the Trust’s compliance program and the CCO meets separately with the non-interested trustees in executive session. In addition, the Board receives reports from the Adviser on the investments and securities trading of the Funds, as well as valuation reports and any issues related to portfolio compliance. The Board also receives reports from the Trust’s primary service providers on a periodic or regular basis, including the Adviser to the Funds as well as the Trust’s custodian, distributor and transfer agent. The Board also requires the Adviser to report to the Board on other matters relating to risk management on a regular and as-needed basis.

Trustee Compensation

Effective January 1, 2015, the Trust pays each Trustee of the Trust who is not also affiliated with OAM and/or OSI for such services an annual fee of $15,000, plus $3,000 for attendance at a meeting of the Board of Trustees and $2,000 for attendance at a meeting of the Audit Committee. The Trust pays the Chairman of the Audit Committee an additional $2,000 annually. Prior to January 1, 2015, the annual fee was $12,000.

The Trust reimburses travel and other expenses incurred by its non-interested Trustees for each such meeting attended. Trustees and officers of the Trust who are affiliated with OAM and/or OSI and officers of the Trust will receive no compensation or reimbursement from the Trust for acting in those capacities. However, Trustees and officers of the Trust who are affiliated with OAM and/or OSI may directly or indirectly benefit from fees or other remuneration received from the Trust by OAM and/or OSI. Regular meetings of the Board of Trustees are held quarterly and the audit committee holds at least one meeting during each year.

The following table sets forth the compensation received from the Trust for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 by the non-interested trustees.

MANAGEMENT

Oberweis is a controlling shareholder of OAM and serves as Chairman of the Board, director and the President of OAM. The principal nature of James W. Oberweis’ business is investment advisory and securities brokerage services. James D. Oberweis is also a controlling shareholder of OAM. James D. Oberweis is currently an Illinois state senator. Patrick B. Joyce is a shareholder of OAM and serves as a director, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Compliance Officer of OAM. The principal business of Patrick B. Joyce is investment advisory and securities brokerage services. For additional details concerning OAM, see the Funds’ Prospectus under the heading “Management of the Funds.” Pursuant to written contracts between the Trust and OAM, OAM is responsible for managing the investment and reinvestment of each Fund’s assets, determining in its discretion the securities to be purchased or sold and the portion of the Fund’s assets to be held uninvested, providing the Trust with records concerning OAM’s activities which the Trust is required to maintain under applicable law, and rendering regular reports to the Trust’s Trustees and officers concerning Fund responsibilities. OAM’s investment advisory services to the Trust are all subject to the supervision of the Trustees, and must be in compliance with the investment objectives, policies and restrictions set forth in the Funds’ Prospectus and this SAI and with applicable laws and regulations. In addition, OAM is authorized to select broker-dealers, including OSI, that may execute purchases and sales of the securities for the Funds. (See “Portfolio Transactions.”)

James W. Oberweis, portfolio manager of the Funds, is responsible for the day-to-day management of each Fund (with the exception of the International Opportunities Fund and the Asia Opportunities Fund) and other accounts. As of December 31, 2014, information on these other accounts is as follows:

As indicated in the above table, the Funds’ portfolio managers are responsible for the day to day management of other accounts, including other accounts with investment strategies similar to the Funds. Those accounts include separately managed accounts and the personal/proprietary accounts of the Funds’ portfolio managers. The fees earned by OAM for managing client accounts may vary among those accounts. In addition, the Funds’ portfolio managers may personally invest in the Funds. These factors could create conflicts of interest because the Funds’ portfolio managers may have incentives to favor certain accounts over others, resulting in other accounts outperforming the Funds. A conflict may also exist if a portfolio manager identifies a limited investment opportunity that may be appropriate for more than one account, but the Funds are not able to take full advantage of that opportunity due to the need to allocate the opportunity among multiple accounts. In addition, a portfolio manager may execute transactions for another account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by the Funds.

However, OAM believes that these risks are mitigated by the fact that accounts with the investment strategies or which hold the same securities are generally managed in a similar fashion, subject to exceptions to account for particular investment restrictions or other limitations applicable only to certain accounts, as well as differences in each account’s initial holdings, cash flow, account size and other factors. In addition, OAM has adopted trade allocation procedures that require equitable allocation of trades for a particular security among participating accounts over time and a Code of Ethics that addresses possible conflicts between personal trades and client trades.

Mr. Oberweis’s compensation consists of a base, an incentive-based fee and equity ownership in OAM. The incentive reward is based on revenues of the firm’s Global Small-Cap strategy, which includes the Emerging Growth Fund, as well as the overall performance of the firm. As the firm’s largest shareholder, Mr. Oberweis benefits from his equity ownership in OAM.

As of December 31, 2014, the dollar range of equity securities in each Fund for which James W. Oberweis is the portfolio manager beneficially owned by him was: Emerging Growth Fund—$500,001-$1,000,000; Micro-Cap Fund—$100,001-$500,000; Small-Cap Opportunities Fund—$100,001-$500,000; and China Opportunities Fund—over $1,000,000. Includes shares held by OAM, OSI and Oberweis Publishing Company LLC, of which Mr. Oberweis is a controlling shareholder.

Mr. Farsalas’s compensation consists of a base, an incentive-based fee and equity ownership in OAM. Most of the incentive reward is quantitatively defined in advance and is based on a combination of the performance of the Domestic Funds in relation to their respective benchmarks (the Russell 2000 Growth Index for the Small-Cap Opportunities Fund and the Russell Micro-Cap Growth Index for the Micro-Cap Fund) and the revenues of the domestic strategies. To ensure long-term commitment, Mr. Farsalas benefits from equity ownership in OAM.

As of December 31, 2014, the dollar range of equity securities in each Fund for which Mr. Farsalas is the portfolio manager beneficially owned by him was: Micro-Cap Fund—$10,001-$50,000 and Small-Cap Opportunities Fund—$100,001-$500,000.

Mr. Scherschmidt’s compensation consists of a base, an incentive-based fee and equity ownership in OAM. Most of the incentive reward is quantitatively defined in advance and is based on a combination of the International Opportunities Fund’s performance in relation to its benchmark (the MSCI World ex-U.S. Small Cap Growth Index) and the International Opportunities strategy’s revenues. To ensure long-term commitment, Mr. Scherschmidt benefits from equity ownership in OAM.

As of December 31, 2014, the dollar range of equity securities in the International Opportunities Fund beneficially owned by Mr. Scherschmidt was: $100,001-$500,000.

Mr. Wong’s compensation consists of a base and an incentive-based fee. The incentive fee is computed based on the revenues of the China Opportunities Fund and the Asia Opportunities Fund, as well as the performance of these two Funds.

As of December 31, 2014, the dollar range of equity securities in each Fund for which Mr. Wong is a portfolio manager beneficially owned by him was: China Opportunities Fund—$50,001-$100,000 and Asia Opportunities Fund—$100,001-$500,000.

The investment adviser is obligated to pay the salaries and fees of any officers of the Trust as well as the Trustees of the Trust who are interested persons (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Trust, who are employed full time by the investment adviser to perform services for the Emerging Growth, Micro-Cap and Small-Cap Opportunities Funds under the Investment Advisory Agreement and for the China Opportunities Fund, the International Opportunities Fund and the Asia Opportunities Fund under their respective Investment Advisory and Management Agreements.

As compensation for its investment advisory services, OAM receives from the Emerging Growth Fund at the end of each month a fee at an annual rate equal to .45% of the first $50 million of the average daily net assets of the Fund and .40% of the average daily net assets of the Fund in excess of $50 million, from the Micro-Cap Fund at the end of each month a fee at the annual rate of .60% of the average daily net assets of the Fund, and from the Small-Cap Opportunities Fund at the end of each month a fee at the annual rate of .40% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. As compensation for its investment advisory and management services, OAM

receives from each of the China Opportunities Fund, the International Opportunities Fund and the Asia Opportunities Fund at the end of each month a fee at an annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily net assets of the respective Fund.

For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, the advisory fees incurred by the Emerging Growth Fund and payable to OAM were $271,960, $275,071, and $271,507, respectively.

Pursuant to an Expense Limitation Agreement, OAM reimbursed the Asia Opportunities Fund $117,998, $167,830, and $129,735, for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.

For the year ended December 31, 2012, the sub-advisory fees payable by OAM to OAM (Asia) Limited with respect to the China Opportunities Fund was $1,297,961. For the period ended April 30, 2013, the sub-advisory fees payable by OAM to OAM (Asia) Limited with respect to the China Opportunities Fund were $406,424.

OAM also provides the Trust with non-investment advisory, management and administrative services pursuant to a Management Agreement with respect to the Emerging Growth, Micro-Cap and Small-Cap Opportunities Funds. These services are provided to the International Opportunities Fund, the China Opportunities Fund and the Asia Opportunities Fund pursuant to their respective Investment Advisory and Management Agreements. OAM is responsible under such agreements for providing the Trust with those management and administrative services which are reasonably necessary for conducting the business affairs of the Trust, with the exception of investment advisory services (with respect to the Emerging Growth, Micro-Cap and Small-Cap Opportunities Funds), and distribution of each Fund’s shares and shareholder services, which are subject to the Trust’s Rule 12b-1 Plan. (See “Distribution Plan and Agreement.”) In addition, OAM provides the Trust with office space and basic facilities for management of the Trust’s affairs, and bookkeeping, accounting, record keeping and data processing facilities and services.

OAM is responsible for preparing and updating the Trust’s SEC registration statement and state filings, tax reports to shareholders and similar documents. OAM pays the compensation of all officers and personnel of the Trust for their services to the Trust as well as the Trustees of the Trust who are interested persons of the Trust. OAM also provides information and certain administrative services to shareholders of each Fund. These services include, among other things, transmitting redemption requests to the Trust’s Transfer Agent and transmitting the proceeds of redemption of shares of the Trust pursuant to a shareholder’s instructions when such redemption is effected through OAM; providing telephone and written communications with respect to its shareholders’ account inquiries; assisting its shareholders in altering privileges and ownership of their accounts; and serving as a source of information for its existing shareholders in answering questions concerning the Trust and their transactions with the Trust.

For its services under the Management Agreement, OAM is paid by the Emerging Growth, Micro-Cap and Small-Cap Opportunities Funds on a monthly basis an annual management fee equal to .40% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. OAM will bear all expenses in connection with the performance of its services to each of

the Emerging Growth, Micro-Cap and Small-Cap Opportunities Funds under the Management Agreement. The Emerging Growth, Micro-Cap and Small-Cap Opportunities Funds are responsible for all other expenses. However, the Management Agreement and related Expense Limitation Agreement provide that OAM is obligated to reimburse the Emerging Growth, Micro-Cap and Small-Cap Opportunities Funds for 100% of the amount by which the Fund’s ordinary operating expenses during any fiscal year, including the management and advisory fees, exceed the following amounts expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets:

2.0% of the first $25,000,000; plus

1.8% of the next $25,000,000; plus

1.6% of average daily net assets in excess of $50,000,000.

Similarly, pursuant to Expense Limitation Agreements, OAM is obligated to reimburse the China Opportunities Fund and the Asia Opportunities Fund for 100% of the amount by which a Fund’s ordinary operating expenses during any fiscal year, including the management and advisory fees, exceed 2.49% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. Pursuant to an Expense Limitation Agreement, OAM is obligated to reimburse the International Opportunities Fund for 100% of the amount by which the Fund’s ordinary operating expenses during any fiscal year, including the management and advisory fees, exceed 1.60% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.

Excluded from the calculation of ordinary operating expenses are expenses such as interest, taxes and brokerage commissions and extraordinary items such as litigation costs. Any such reimbursement is computed and accrued on a daily and settled on a monthly basis based upon the expenses and average net assets computed through the last business day of the month. As of the end of the Trust’s fiscal year, the aggregate amounts of reimbursement, if any, by OAM to a Fund in excess of the amount necessary to limit the operating expenses on an annual basis to said expense limitation shall be refunded to OAM. In no event will OAM be required to reimburse a Fund in an amount exceeding its management and investment advisory fees.

For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, management fees incurred by the Emerging Growth Fund and payable to OAM were $246,960, $250,071, and $246,507, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, the management fees incurred by the Micro-Cap Fund and payable to OAM were $188,728, $97,662, and $82,668, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, the management fees incurred by the Small-Cap Opportunities Fund and payable to OAM were $35,553, $32,056, and $31,294, respectively.

DISTRIBUTION PLAN AND AGREEMENT

Oberweis Securities, Inc., 3333 Warrenville Road, Suite 500, Lisle, Illinois 60532, an affiliate of OAM and the Trust, acts as the primary distributor of each Fund’s shares and as the primary shareholder servicing agent for each Fund. As discussed in the Funds’ Prospectus under the heading “Distribution of Shares,” the Trust has adopted a Plan of Distribution (the “Distribution Plan”) and a Distribution and Shareholder Service Agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (collectively the “Plan and Agreement”) under which the Trust compensates OSI in connection with the distribution of each Fund’s shares and for shareholder servicing. The Trust pays OSI a monthly distribution and shareholder servicing fee at an annual rate of .25% of each Fund’s average daily net assets and may also reimburse certain out of pocket costs incurred by OSI for shareholder services provided to the Trust.

The Distribution Plan is a “compensation type” plan, which means that OSI may receive compensation that is more or less than the actual expenditure made. OSI is, however, required to provide the Trustees with quarterly listings of all expenditures under the Plan and Agreement.

Pursuant to the Plan and Agreement, OSI has agreed, directly or through other firms, to advertise and promote the Trust and provide information and services to existing and potential shareholders. These services include, among other things, processing new shareholder account applications; converting funds into or advancing federal funds for the purchase of shares of the Trust as well as transmitting purchase orders to the Trust’s Transfer Agent; transmitting redemption requests to the Trust’s Transfer Agent and transmitting the proceeds of redemption of shares of the Trust pursuant to a shareholder’s instructions; providing telephone and written communications with respect to shareholder account inquiries and serving as the primary source of information for existing and potential shareholders in answering questions concerning the Trust and their transactions with the Trust; and providing literature distribution, advertising and promotion as is necessary or appropriate for providing information and services to existing and potential shareholders.

OSI may be reimbursed monthly by each Fund for certain out-of-pocket costs in connection with its services as shareholder service agent, including such costs as postage, data entry, modification and printout, stationery, tax forms and all other external forms or printed material, but not including overhead. Although there is no limitation on the amount of such costs that may be reimbursed under the Plan and Agreement, such costs must be actual, out-of-pocket costs, and the total amount of 12b-1 fees, including reimbursement of such costs, is included in the total expenses of the Fund, subject to the expense limitation based on average daily net assets of each Fund. OSI will furnish with each monthly statement for such reimbursement a written listing of the expenditures on behalf of each Fund and their purpose. OSI compensates its account executives for servicing and administering a shareholder’s account.

The Plan and Agreement provides that OSI may appoint various broker-dealer firms to assist in providing distribution services for the Trust, including literature distribution, advertising and promotion, and may appoint broker-dealers and other firms (including depository institutions such as commercial banks and savings and loan associations) to provide administrative services for their clients as shareholders of the Trust under related service agreements. To provide these services, these firms will furnish, among other things, office space and equipment, telephone facilities, and personnel as is necessary or beneficial for providing information and services related to the distribution of the Funds’ shares to OSI in servicing accounts of such firms’ clients who own shares of the Trust.

The Plan provides that the Trust’s asset-based sales charges (as defined in the NASD’s Conduct Rules) shall not exceed those permitted by Rule 2830 of the NASD’s Conduct Rules. Further, as permitted by the NASD’s Rules, the Emerging Growth Fund has elected to calculate its permissible amount of asset-based sales charges on new gross sales of the Fund since the Fund’s inception.

The Board of Trustees has determined that, in its judgment, there is a reasonable likelihood that the Plan and Agreement will benefit the Funds and their shareholders. If the sizes of the Funds are increased rapidly, fixed expenses will be reduced as a percentage of each shareholder’s investment. The 12b-1 expenses will also provide OSI and others an incentive to promote the Funds and to offer individual shareholders prompt and efficient services.

As required by Rule 12b-1, the Plan and Agreement were approved by the Board of Trustees, including a majority of Trustees who are not interested persons, as defined in the 1940 Act, of the Trust, who are not parties to the Distribution and Shareholder Service Agreement and who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the Plan.

Unless terminated earlier as described below, the Plan and Agreement will continue in effect from year to year if approved annually by the Board of Trustees of the Trust, including a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the Plan and Agreement (or have a direct or indirect financial interest in the operation thereof) and who are not interested persons of the Trust. The Plan may be terminated with respect to the Trust or a Fund at any time by (1) a vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust, who are not parties to the Distribution and Shareholder Service Agreement and who have no direct or indirect financial interest therein,

or (2) by the vote of a majority of shareholders of that Fund. The Distribution and Shareholder Service Agreement may be terminated similarly without penalty upon 60 days written notice by either party and will automatically terminate if assigned, as defined in the 1940 Act.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, total 12b-1 fees paid by the Emerging Growth Fund to OSI were $154,350. For that period OSI paid the following amounts under the Rule 12b-1 Plan in the approximate amounts noted: $6,511 in sales promotion and literature expenses and registration fees, $129,102 in service fees paid to brokers, and $865 in salary expenses and employment services.

There was no reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses for such period.

Other Payments to Third Parties

In addition to paying fees under the Plan, the Funds may pay service fees to intermediaries such as banks, broker-dealers, financial advisers or other financial institutions for sub-administration, sub-transfer agency and other shareholder services associated with shareholders whose shares are held of record in omnibus, other group accounts or accounts traded through registered securities clearing agents. The service fees may vary based on, for example, the nature of services provided, but generally range up to .15% of assets serviced by the intermediary.

As of the date of this SAI, the Trust anticipates that Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., National Financial Services, LLC, Pershing, LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Vanguard Marketing Corporation, the Retirement Plan Company, LLC and Wells Fargo Advisors, LLC will receive additional payments as described above. The Trust may enter into additional arrangements or change or discontinue existing arrangements with intermediaries at any time without notice.

OAM or OSI, out of their own resources and without additional cost to the Funds or their shareholders, may provide additional cash payments to intermediaries for the provision of the above noted services or to intermediaries who otherwise sell shares of the Trust. Such payments are in addition to 12b-1 fees and service fees paid by the Trust. These additional cash payments may be made to intermediaries for inclusion of the Funds on sales lists, in other sales programs or as an expense reimbursement in cases where the intermediary provides shareholder services to Fund shareholders. OAM or OSI currently make payments from their own assets in connection with the servicing, sale, distribution and/or retention of Trust shares that generally range up to .10% of assets serviced.

As of the date of this SAI, OAM and OSI anticipate that Charles Schwab & Co. and HRC Fund Associates LLC will receive additional payments as described above. OAM or OSI may enter into additional arrangements or change or discontinue existing arrangements with intermediaries at any time without notice.

These payment arrangements, however, will not change the price that an investor pays for Trust shares or the amount that a Trust receives to invest on behalf of an investor and will not increase Trust expenses. You may wish to take such payment arrangements into account when considering and evaluating any recommendations relating to Trust shares and discuss this matter with your investment dealer/intermediary.

Although a Fund may use an intermediary that sells shares of the Trust to their customers to effect portfolio transactions for the Trust, OAM does not consider sales of Trust shares as a factor in the selection of broker-dealers to execute those transactions.

EXPENSES BORNE BY THE FUNDS

Other than those expenses payable by OAM and/or OSI, the Funds will pay all of their expenses, including the following:

(a) Federal, state and local or other governmental agency taxes or fees levied against the Trust.

(b) Costs, including the interest expense, of borrowing money.

(c) Brokerage fees and commissions and other transaction costs in connection with the purchase or sale of portfolio securities for the Funds.

(d) Fees and expenses of the Trustees other than those who are “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Trust.

(n) Costs and expenses incurred for promotion or advertising of the Trust’s Shares, but only pursuant to a Plan duly adopted in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act and to the extent that such Plan may from time to time provide.

(o) Expenses related to issuance or redemption of the Funds’ shares.

PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

Decisions with respect to the purchase and sale of portfolio securities on behalf of the Funds are made by OAM. OAM is authorized to place orders for securities with various broker-dealers, including OSI, subject to the requirements of applicable laws and regulations. Orders for securities transactions are placed by OAM with a view to obtaining the best combination of price and execution available. In seeking to achieve the best combination of price and execution, OAM attempts to evaluate the overall quality and reliability of the broker-dealers and the services provided, including research services, general execution capability, reliability and integrity, willingness to take positions in securities, general operational capabilities and financial condition. However, the responsibility of OAM to attempt to obtain the best combination of price and execution does not obligate it to solicit a competitive bid for each transaction. Furthermore, under the Investment Advisory Agreement, OAM is not obligated to seek the lowest available cost to the Fund, so long as it determines in good faith that the broker-dealer’s commission, spread or discount is reasonable in relation to the value of the execution and research services provided by such a broker-dealer to the Fund, or OAM when viewed in terms of that particular transaction or its overall responsibilities with respect to all of its clients, including the Fund, as to which it offers advice or exercises investment discretion.

OAM, with the prior consent of the Trust’s Trustees, may place orders with affiliated persons of OAM, OSI or the Trust subject to (i) the provisions of Sections 10(f) and 17(e)(2) of the 1940 Act and Rules 10f-3 and 17e-1 thereunder, Rule 206(3)-2 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, Section 11(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 11a2-2(T)(a)(2) thereunder and any other applicable laws or regulations, and (ii) procedures properly adopted by the Trust with respect thereto. The Trust has been advised by OAM that it may place orders for securities with OSI, but only when it believes that the combination of price and execution are comparable to that of other broker-dealers. OAM, with the prior consent of the Trust’s Trustees, may engage in agency cross transactions subject to (i) the provisions of Section 17(a) of the 1940 Act and Rule 17a-7 thereunder and other applicable laws or regulations, (ii) the provisions of Section 206 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and Rule 206(3)-2 thereunder, and (iii) procedures properly adopted by the Trust with respect thereto. OAM has agreed to furnish certain information quarterly to the Trust’s Trustees to enable them to evaluate the quality of execution and cost of all orders executed by OSI.

and sold, it is believed by the Trust’s management to be in the interests of the Trust for OAM in fulfilling its responsibilities to the Trust, to be authorized to receive and evaluate the research and information provided by other securities brokers or dealers, and to compensate such brokers or dealers for their research and information services. Any such information received may be utilized by OAM for the benefit of its other accounts as well, in the same manner that the Trust might also benefit from information obtained by OAM in performing services for its other accounts. Although it is believed that research services received directly or indirectly benefit all of OAM’s accounts, the degree of benefit varies by account and is not directly related to the commissions or other remuneration paid by such account.

Some brokers and dealers used by OAM provide research and other services described above. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the total brokerage commissions paid by the Funds to broker-dealers in transactions identified hereunder primarily on the basis of research and other services provided to the Funds are as follows: Emerging Growth Fund paid $116,780 in brokerage commissions on securities transactions in the amount of $115,581,715; the Micro-Cap Fund paid $223,656 in brokerage commissions on securities transactions in the amount of $119,406,006; the Small-Cap Opportunities Fund paid $19,728 in brokerage commissions on securities transactions in the amount of $18,988,695; the International Opportunities Fund paid $619,753 in brokerage commissions on securities transactions in the amount of $423,492,158; the China Opportunities Fund paid $287,773 in brokerage commissions on securities transactions in the amount of $183,424,119; and the Asia Opportunities Fund paid $7,850 in brokerage commissions on securities transactions in the amount of $5,672,312.

Transactions of the Funds in the over-the-counter market and the third market may be executed for the Funds by OSI as agent with primary market makers acting as principal, except where OAM believes that better prices or execution may be obtained otherwise. Transactions with primary market makers reflect the spread between the bid and the ask prices. Occasionally, the Funds may make purchases of underwritten issues at prices which include underwriting discount fees.

DISCLOSURE OF PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS

Each Fund will publicly disclose its holdings in accordance with regulatory requirements, such as periodic portfolio disclosure in filings with the SEC. Except as provided below, neither the Trust nor OAM shall provide portfolio holding information to any other persons until such information has been disclosed in the publicly available filings with the SEC that are required to include the information, which are generally filed with the SEC approximately 60 days after the end of each calendar quarter.

Quarterly shareholder letters are posted to the Funds’ Web site following each March and September quarter-end (within seven business days after the end of the quarter) that include, among other things, OAM’s/Portfolio Manager’s market commentary, performance information regarding the Funds, and information regarding each Fund’s ownership of certain individual securities (such as a Fund’s top five or top ten holdings).

In addition, the Portfolio Manager and other senior officers or spokespersons of the Trust or OAM may from time to time disclose to or discuss with public media through interviews with reporters (of the press, television or radio), through other appearances on television or radio (such as CNBC, Bloomberg) or through written articles (in Forbes or other print media) items such as (a) a Fund’s ownership of certain individual holding(s); (b) views on matters affecting the price or business of specific Fund holding(s); (c) reasons for buying and selling specific portfolio holding(s); (d) reasons for believing certain holdings are good long term investments for a Fund, (e) favorite stocks, (f) future plans for structuring a Fund, and/or (g) other items of a similar nature. The securities subject to such statements may or may not have been previously disclosed.

Further, material non-public holdings information may be provided as part of the normal business and investment activities of each Fund to parties who need access to such information in the performance of their contractual duties and responsibilities including: auditors; the custodian; broker-dealers in connection with the purchase or sale of Fund securities or requests for price quotations or bids on one or more securities; counsel to the Trust or the non-interested trustees; other third party service providers (such as financial printers, proxy voting services and pricing services); regulatory authorities; stock exchanges and other listing organizations; and parties to litigation. A Fund may also disclose to an issuer the number of shares of the issuer (or percentage of outstanding shares) held by the Fund.

Any other disclosure of portfolio holdings would require the approval of the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer before dissemination. Such approval would be based on a good faith determination that the Trust has a legitimate business purpose to provide the information and the disclosure is in the Trust’s best interests.

The Trust, OAM or their affiliates will not enter into any arrangements with third parties from which it would derive any monetary benefit for the disclosure of material non-public holdings information. If, in the future, the Trust, OAM or their affiliates desire to make such an arrangement, it would seek prior Board approval and any such arrangements would be disclosed in the Funds’ SAI.

The Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer will periodically report to the Board of Trustees of the Trust on the effectiveness of the Trust’s Policies and Procedures regarding the disclosure of the Funds’ holdings.

CODE OF ETHICS

The Trust, OAM and OSI have adopted a joint Code of Ethics. Access Persons (as defined in the Code) are permitted to make personal securities transactions, subject to requirements and restrictions set forth in such Code of Ethics. The Code of Ethics contains provisions and requirements designed to identify and address certain conflicts of interest between personal investment activities and the interests of investment advisory clients such as those of the Trust. The Code of Ethics also prohibits certain types of transactions absent prior approval, imposes time periods during which personal transactions may not be made in certain securities, and requires the reporting of securities transactions. Exceptions to these and other provisions of the Code of Ethics may be granted in particular circumstances after review by appropriate personnel.

PROXY VOTING

The Board of Trustees has delegated the authority for voting proxies relating to the Trust’s portfolio securities to OAM, who has agreed to vote such proxies according to OAM’s Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures. OAM’s Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures set forth the general principles used to determine how OAM votes proxies on securities in client accounts for which OAM has proxy voting authority, including the Trust. OAM’s general policy is to vote proxies in the best interests of clients. The principles which guide the voting policy of OAM are maximizing the value of client assets and promoting the rights of clients and beneficial owners of the companies in whose shares they invest. OAM’s investment strategies are predicated on the belief that the quality of management is often the key to ultimate success or failure of a business. Because OAM generally makes investments in companies in which OAM has confidence in management, proxies generally are voted in favor of management’s recommendation. OAM may vote a proxy in a manner contrary to management’s recommendation if in the judgment of OAM, the proposal would not enhance shareholder values.

OAM has retained ISS Governance Services (“ISS”), a proxy voting and consulting firm, to receive proxy voting statements, provide information and research, make proxy vote recommendations, and handle various administrative functions associated with the voting of client proxies. While ISS makes the proxy voting recommendations, OAM retains the ultimate authority on how to vote.

OAM’s Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures describe how OAM addresses conflicts of interest between OAM and its clients, including Fund shareholders, with respect to proxy voting decisions. If OAM determines that, through reasonable inquiry or otherwise, an issue raises a potential material conflict of interest, OAM will follow the recommendations of ISS except as follows. If OAM and/or the Proxy Committee believes that it would be in the interest of OAM’s clients to vote a proxy other than according to the recommendation of ISS, the Proxy Committee will prepare a report that (1) describes the conflict of interest; (2) discusses procedures used to address such conflict of interest; and (3) confirms that the recommendation was made solely on the investment merits and without regard to any other consideration.

Information regarding how the Funds voted proxies related to portfolio securities for the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 is available without charge, upon request by calling 1-800-323-6166 and on the SEC’s Web site at http://www.sec.gov.

SHAREHOLDER SERVICES

The Trust’s Prospectus under the heading Shareholder Information/How to Purchase Shares, How to Redeem Shares and Shareholder Services describes information in addition to that set forth below. When a shareholder makes an initial investment in a Fund, a shareholder account is opened in accordance with the Trust’s Account Application instructions. After each transaction for the account of a shareholder, confirmation of all deposits, purchases, reinvestments, redemptions, withdrawal payments, and other transactions in the shareholder’s account will be forwarded to the shareholder.

A Fund will not issue certificates for its shares; the investor will be the record owner of all shares in his/her account with full shareholder rights. Certain of the functions performed by the Trust in connection with the operation of the accounts described above have been delegated by the Trust to its Transfer Agent.

In addition to the purchase and redemption services described above, the Trust offers its shareholders the special accounts and services described in the Trust’s Prospectus. Applications and information about any shareholder services may be obtained from OAM.

DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE

See the Funds’ Prospectus under the heading Shareholder Information/How to Purchase Shares and Pricing of Fund Shares, for descriptions of certain details concerning the determination of Net Asset Value (“NAV”). The NAV of the shares of the Funds are computed once daily, as of the later of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) or the Chicago Board Options Exchange (“CBOE”), on each day the NYSE is open for trading. All securities in the Funds other than options are priced as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE. The options in the Funds are priced as of the close of trading on the CBOE. The NAV per share is computed by dividing the value of the Fund’s securities plus all other assets minus all liabilities by the total number of Fund shares outstanding. In valuing the Fund’s securities, each listed and unlisted security, other than options, for which last sale information is regularly reported is valued at the last reported sale price prior to the close of the NYSE. If there has been no sale on such day, the last reported bid price is used. Short options are valued at the last reported highest bid price on any option exchange and long options are valued at the last reported offer price on any option exchange as of the close of trading on the CBOE. Any unlisted security for which last sale information is not regularly reported and any listed debt security which has an inactive listed market for which over-the-counter market quotations are readily available is valued at the highest bid price as of the close of the NYSE determined on the basis of reasonable inquiry. Restricted securities and any other securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued by appraisal at their fair values as determined in good faith under procedures established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Board of Trustees. The Emerging Growth Fund, the International Opportunities Fund, the China Opportunities Fund and the Asia Opportunities Fund may use a fair valuation model provided by an independent pricing service, which is intended to reflect fair value when a security’s value or a meaningful portion of the Fund’s portfolio is believed to have been materially affected by a significant event that has occurred between the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded and the close of the NYSE. The Fund’s valuation policies set forth certain triggers which instruct when to use the valuation model. The value assigned to a security by the fair valuation model is a determination of fair value made under the Fund’s valuation policies and under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. In such a case, the Fund’s value for a security is likely to be different from the last quoted price. In all cases, the value of fair valued securities may be different from the last reported sale price (or the last reported bid price), and there is no guarantee that a

fair valued security will be sold at the price at which the Fund is carrying the security. Short-term debt obligations, commercial paper and repurchase agreements are valued on the basis of quoted yields for securities of comparable maturity, quality and type or on the basis of amortized cost.

PURCHASE OF SHARES

See the Funds’ Prospectus under the heading Shareholder Information/How to Purchase Shares for detailed information concerning the purchase of shares of a Fund. Shares of the Funds are sold at the NAV per share next determined after the purchase order is received in proper form by UMB Fund Services, Inc., the Trust’s Transfer Agent.

REDEMPTION OF SHARES

See the Funds’ Prospectus under the heading Shareholder Information/How to Redeem Shares for detailed information concerning redemption of the shares of a Fund. The Trust may suspend the right to redeem shares or postpone the date of payment for more than seven (7) days for any period during which: (a) the NYSE is closed, other than weekend and holiday closings, or the SEC determines that trading on the NYSE is restricted; (b) the SEC determines there is an emergency as a result of which it is not reasonably practical for a Funds to sell the investment securities or to calculate their NAV; or (c) the SEC permits such suspension for the protection of the Funds’ shareholders. In the case of a suspension of the right of redemption, a shareholder may either withdraw his request for redemption or receive payment at the NAV of his shares existing after termination of the suspension.

Although it is the Trust’s present policy to make payment of redemption proceeds in cash, if the Trust’s Trustees determine it to be appropriate, redemption proceeds may be paid in whole or in part by a distribution in kind of securities held by the Funds, subject to the limitation that, pursuant to an election under Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act, each Fund is obligated to redeem shares solely in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the net asset value of a Fund during any 90-day period for any one account. The value of such securities shall be determined as of the close of trading of the NYSE on the business day on which the redemption is effective. In such circumstances, a shareholder might be required to bear transaction costs to dispose of such securities. A redemption in kind is a taxable transaction for federal income tax purposes.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

The following is a general summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of investing in a Fund. It is not intended to be a complete discussion of all such federal income tax consequences nor does it deal with all categories of investors. This discussion reflects applicable federal income tax laws of the United States as of the date of the Funds’ Prospectus and this SAI, which provisions are subject to change by legislative, judicial or administrative action, possibly with retroactive effect. Shareholders are advised to consult their own tax advisers before making an investment in a Fund.

Each of the Funds has elected to be treated and to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), so that the Fund will not be liable for federal income taxes to the extent that its net investment income and net realized capital gains are currently distributed to its shareholders. Each of the Funds will qualify for this status as long as it: (a) derives at least 90% of its gross income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to certain securities loans, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or foreign currencies, other income (including gain from options, futures or forward contracts) derived with respect to its business of investing in such stock, securities or foreign currencies, and net income derived from interests in qualified publicly traded partnerships; (b) invests in

securities that satisfy certain diversification requirements; and (c) distributes to its shareholders each year at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid) and net tax-exempt interest income, if any.

If in any taxable year a Fund fails to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Code, the Fund’s distributions, to the extent derived from its current or accumulated earnings and profits, will constitute dividends, which will generally be eligible for the dividends received deduction available to corporate shareholders under Section 243 of the Code. Furthermore, in such event, individual and other noncorporate shareholders of the Fund would generally be able to treat such distributions as “qualified dividend income” eligible for reduced rates of federal income taxation, provided certain holding period and other requirements are satisfied.

Except for those shareholders exempt from federal income taxation or investing through a tax-advantaged account, dividends and capital gains distributions are taxable to shareholders whether paid in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the Fund. Except as provided below, dividends from net investment income are generally taxable to shareholders as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. For corporate shareholders, such income dividends from domestic corporations may be eligible for the deduction for dividends received. For individual and other noncorporate shareholders, a portion of such dividends may qualify to be treated as “qualified dividend income” subject to reduced rates of federal income taxation. Dividends from foreign corporations are not treated as “qualified dividend income” if the foreign corporation is not incorporated in a possession of the United States or is not eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States (unless the foreign corporation stock is readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States) or if the foreign corporation is a passive foreign investment company. Distributions of long-term capital gains are taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gains regardless of the length of time that such shareholders have owned shares in a Fund. Short-term capital gain distributions are taxable to shareholders as ordinary income. Shareholders will be notified annually as to the federal income tax status of dividends and capital gains distributions. Such dividends and distributions may also be subject to state, local and other taxes.

Income dividends taxed as ordinary income are subject to federal income tax at rates up to 39.6% for individuals. “Qualified dividend income” is currently taxed at rates up to 20% for individual and other noncorporate shareholders. Long-term capital gain distributions (relating to assets held by a Fund for more than 12 months) made to individual and other noncorporate shareholders are currently taxable at a maximum rate of 20%. For corporate shareholders, long-term capital gain distributions are taxed at the same rate as ordinary income.

In order to avoid a 4% federal excise tax on undistributed amounts, each Fund must declare, by the end of the calendar year, a dividend to shareholders of record that represents 98% of its ordinary income for the calendar year plus 98.2% of its capital gain net income for the period from November 1 of the previous year through October 31 of the current year plus any undistributed ordinary income from the prior calendar year, plus any undistributed capital gain net income for the one-year period ended October 31 of the prior calendar year, less any overdistribution in the prior calendar year. Each Fund intends to declare or distribute dividends during the appropriate periods in an amount sufficient to avoid this 4% excise tax.

Any gain resulting from the sale or exchange of a Fund’s shares generally will be taxable as capital gains. If a shareholder held such shares for more than one year, the gain will be a long-term capital gain. Long-term capital gain is currently taxable to individuals at a maximum federal income tax rate of 20%. Any loss realized on a sale or exchange will be disallowed to the extent that substantially identical shares are reacquired (including through dividend reinvestment) within a period of 61 days beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after the disposition of such shares. In such a case, the basis of the shares acquired will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed loss. Any loss incurred by shareholders on the redemption of shares of a Fund held six months or less will be treated as long-term capital losses to the extent of any capital gains distributions made by the Fund with respect to such shares. The ability to deduct capital losses may also be limited by other provisions of the Code.

An additional 3.8% Medicare tax is imposed on certain net investment income (including income dividends and capital gain distributions received from a Fund and net gains from redemptions or other taxable dispositions of Fund shares) of U.S. individuals, estates and trusts to the extent that such person’s “modified adjusted gross income” (in the case of an individual) or “adjusted gross income” (in the case of an estate or trust) exceeds a threshold amount.

Options, short sales, financial futures contracts and foreign currency transactions entered into by a Fund are subject to special tax rules that may accelerate income, defer losses, cause adjustments to the holding period of securities, convert capital gain into ordinary income, and convert short-term capital loss into long-term capital loss. As a result, these rules could affect the amount, timing, and character of Fund distributions.

Under the Code, gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in exchange rates which occur between the time a Fund accrues income or receivables or accrues expenses or other liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and the time the Fund actually collects such income or pays such liabilities generally are treated as ordinary income or loss. Similarly, on disposition of debt securities denominated in a foreign currency, gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in the value of the foreign currency between the date of acquisition of the security or contract and the date of disposition also may be treated as ordinary gain or loss. These gains and losses may increase or decrease the amount of a Fund’s investment company taxable income to be distributed to its shareholders as ordinary income.

Income received by a Fund from sources within foreign countries may be subject to withholding and other taxes imposed by such countries. Tax conventions between certain countries and the U.S. may reduce or eliminate such taxes. If more than 50% of the value of a Fund’s total assets at the close of its taxable year consists of securities of foreign corporations, such Fund will be eligible to elect to “pass through” to the Fund’s shareholders the amount of eligible foreign income and similar taxes paid by the Fund. If this election is made, a shareholder generally subject to federal income tax will be required to include in gross income (in addition to taxable dividends actually received) his or her pro rata share of foreign taxes in computing his or her taxable income and to deduct such foreign taxes or use such taxes as a foreign tax credit against his or her U.S. federal income tax liability, subject in each case to certain limitations contained in the Code. No deduction for foreign taxes may be claimed by a shareholder who does not itemize deductions. Each shareholder will be notified after the close of the Fund’s taxable year whether the foreign taxes paid by the Fund will “pass through” for that year.

If a Fund receives a so-called “excess distribution” with respect to stock in a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”), the Fund itself may be subject to tax on a portion of the excess distribution, whether or not the corresponding income is distributed by the Fund to shareholders. A foreign corporation is classified as a PFIC for a taxable year if at least 50% of its assets produces passive income or is held for the production of passive income or 75% or more of its gross income for the taxable year is passive income. In general, under the PFIC rules, an excess distribution is treated as having been realized ratably over the period during which the Fund held the PFIC stock. A Fund itself will be subject to U.S. federal income tax (including interest) on the portion, if any, of an excess distribution that is so allocated to prior taxable years. Certain distributions from a PFIC as well as gain from the sale of PFIC stock may be treated as excess distributions. Excess distributions are characterized as ordinary income even though, absent application of the PFIC rules, certain excess distributions might have been classified as capital gain.

A Fund may be eligible to elect alternative tax treatment with respect to PFIC stock. Under an election that currently is available in some circumstances, a Fund generally would be required to include its share of the PFIC’s income and net capital gain annually, regardless of whether distributions are received from the PFIC in a given year. If this election were made, the special rules discussed above relating to the taxation of excess distributions would not apply. In addition, another election may be available that would involve marking to market a Fund’s PFIC shares at the end of each taxable year (and on certain other dates prescribed in the Code), with the result that unrealized gains are treated as though they were realized. If this election were made, tax at the

Fund level under the PFIC rules would generally be eliminated, but the Fund could, in limited circumstances, incur nondeductible interest charges. In some circumstances, a Fund may not be able to make available elections.

Because the application of the PFIC rules may affect, among other things, the character of gains and the amount of gain or loss and the timing of the recognition of income with respect to PFIC shares, and may subject a Fund itself to tax on certain income from PFIC shares, the amount that must be distributed to shareholders and will be taxed to shareholders as ordinary income or long-term capital gain may be increased or decreased substantially as compared to a fund that did not invest in PFIC shares.

For any of its fiscal years, a Fund may use an accounting method (known as “equalization”) that is designed to allocate equitably the tax burden of that Fund to all of its shareholders regardless of when during a tax year an individual shareholder redeemed (if ever) his or her shares of the Fund. Equalization allocates a pro rata share of taxable income to departing shareholders when they redeem shares of a Fund, reducing the amount of the distribution to be made to remaining shareholders of the Fund.

Federal law requires the Trust to withhold 28% from dividends, distributions and/or redemption proceeds (including from exchanges) that occur in certain shareholder accounts if the shareholder has not properly furnished a correct taxpayer identification number (in the case of individuals, a social security number) or has not certified that withholding does not apply or if the Internal Revenue Service notifies the Trust that the shareholder is subject to backup withholding. Amounts withheld may be applied to the shareholder’s federal income tax liability and a refund may be obtained from the Internal Revenue Service if withholding results in overpayment of taxes for such year.

The foregoing discussion relates solely to U.S. federal income tax law. Non-U.S. investors should consult their tax advisers concerning the tax consequences of ownership of shares of a Fund, including the possibility that distributions may be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax (or a reduced rate of withholding provided by an applicable treaty).

The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) generally requires the Fund to obtain information sufficient to identify the status of each of its shareholders. If a shareholder fails to provide this information or otherwise fails to comply with FATCA, the Fund may be required to withhold under FATCA at a rate of 30% with respect to that shareholder on Fund dividends and distributions and on the proceeds of the sale, redemption, or exchange of Fund shares. The Fund may disclose the information that it receives from (or concerning) its shareholders to the Internal Revenue Service, non-U.S. taxing authorities or other parties as necessary to comply with FATCA, related intergovernmental agreements or other applicable law or regulation. Each investor is urged to consult its tax advisor regarding the applicability of FATCA and any other reporting requirements with respect to the investor’s own situation, including investments through an intermediary.

Shareholders are advised to consult their own tax advisers regarding specific questions as to federal, state, local, foreign and other taxes that may be applicable to owning, holding and/or disposing of Fund shares.

SHAREHOLDER MEETINGS AND VOTING RIGHTS

in the Declaration of the Trust; (4) with respect to any amendment of the Declaration of Trust (other than amendments changing the name of the Trust or the Funds, supplying any omission, curing any ambiguity or curing, correcting or supplementing any defective or inconsistent provision thereof); (5) as to whether or not a court action, proceeding or claim should or should not be brought or maintained derivatively or as a class action on behalf of the Trust or the shareholders, to the same extent as the stockholders of a Massachusetts business corporation; and (6) with respect to such additional matters relating to the Trust as may be required by law, the Declaration of Trust, the By-Laws of the Trust, or any registration of the Trust with the SEC or any state, or as the Trustees may consider necessary or desirable. Shareholders will vote in the aggregate, except when voting by individual Fund is required under the 1940 Act or when the Board of Trustees determines that voting by Fund is appropriate. The Declaration of Trust specifically authorizes the Board of Trustees to terminate the Trust (or any Fund of the Trust) without shareholder approval by notice to the shareholders. Each Trustee serves until the next meeting of shareholders, if any, called for the purpose of electing Trustees and until the election and qualification of his successor or until such Trustee sooner dies, resigns, retires or is removed by the majority vote of the shareholders or by the Trustees.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Trust History

The Trust is a diversified, open-end management investment company, organized as a business trust under the laws of Massachusetts on July 7, 1986. This SAI relates to the Funds. The Trust currently offers seven series, one of which is described in a separate statement of additional information. The Trust’s Declaration of Trust and the By-Laws of the Trust are designed to make the Trust similar in many respects to a corporation. However, under Massachusetts law, shareholders of a business trust may, under certain circumstances, be held personally liable for the obligations of the trust, which is not the case in a corporation. The Declaration of Trust provides that shareholders shall not be subject to any personal liability to any person extending credit to, contracting with or having any claims against the Trust and that every written agreement, obligation, instrument or undertaking made by the Trust shall contain a provision that the same is not binding upon the shareholders personally. Moreover, the Declaration of Trust provides for indemnification out of Trust property for all losses and expenses of any shareholder held personally liable for the obligations of the Trust, and the Trust will be covered by insurance which the Trustees believe to be adequate to cover foreseeable tort claims. Thus, the risk of a shareholder incurring financial loss on account of shareholder liability is considered remote.

Shares of the Funds

Pursuant to the Trust’s Declaration of Trust, the Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest in one or more series of “Funds,” all having no par value. Shares of each Fund have equal non-cumulative voting rights and equal rights with respect to dividends, assets and liquidation of such Fund. Shares are fully paid and non-assessable by the Trust when issued, are transferable without restriction and have no preemptive or conversion rights.

Custodian and Transfer Agent

The Custodian for the Trust is UMB Bank, N.A., 928 Grand Blvd. 5^TH Floor, Kansas City, Missouri 64106, a national banking association. The Trust has authorized the Custodian to deposit certain securities of the Funds in central depository systems as permitted by federal law. The Funds may invest in obligations of the Custodian and may purchase or sell securities from or to the Custodian. UMB Fund Services, Inc., 235 West Galena Street, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53212, a Wisconsin corporation, is the Trust’s Transfer Agent and acts as a dividend disbursing and redemption agent for the Trust. UMB Bank, N.A. and UMB Fund Services, Inc. are both wholly owned subsidiaries of UMB Financial Corp., a Missouri corporation.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, One North Wacker Drive, Chicago, IL 60606 audits and reports on the Funds’ annual financial statements, reviews certain regulatory reports and prepares the Funds’ income tax returns, and performs other professional accounting, auditing and advisory services, when engaged to do so by the Trust.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES

The following information supplements the discussion of the Fund’s investment objective and policies discussed in the Fund’s Prospectus.

Investment Objective

The investment objective of the Fund is to maximize long-term capital appreciation. The Fund intends to achieve its objective through investing primarily in common stocks of companies, which in the opinion of its investment adviser have a potential for above-average long-term growth in market value. The investment objective of the Fund is fundamental and, like all fundamental policies of the Fund, cannot be changed without the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund. As used in this SAI, “a majority of the outstanding voting securities” of the Fund means the lesser of (1) the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund, or (2) the holders of more than 67% of the shares of the Fund present if more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund are present at a meeting in person or by proxy.

Investment Restrictions

The policies set forth below are fundamental policies of the Fund and may not be changed without approval of a majority of the Fund’s outstanding shares. The Fund may not:

3. issue senior securities, except as the Investment Company Act of 1940, any rule or order thereunder, or SEC staff interpretation thereof may permit;

4. concentrate its investments in any one industry, except that the Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in any one industry;

6. borrow money, except as the Investment Company Act of 1940, any rule or order thereunder, or SEC staff interpretation thereof may permit; or

The policies set forth below may be changed by the Trust’s Board of Trustees without shareholder approval, all such changes being subject to applicable law. The Fund may not:

1. invest in illiquid securities if, as a result of such investment, more than 15% of its net assets would be invested in illiquid securities;

Other Restrictions

Other investment restrictions are set forth in the Fund’s Prospectus and elsewhere in this SAI.

Investment Strategies and Risks

The following information supplements the discussion of the Fund’s risk factors, discussed in the Fund’s Prospectus.

Cash Position. As discussed in the Prospectus, when Oberweis Asset Management, Inc. (“OAM”) believes that market conditions are unfavorable for profitable investing, or when it is otherwise unable to locate attractive investment opportunities, the Fund’s cash or other similar investments may increase. Securities that the Fund may invest in as a means of receiving a return on idle cash include U.S. government obligations, certificates of deposit, commercial paper (rated prime 3 or better by Moody’s Investor Services, Inc., (“Moody’s”) or the equivalent), corporate debt securities (rated A or better by Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s Corporation) and repurchase agreements.

Repurchase Agreements. The Fund may enter into so-called “repurchase agreements,” whereby it purchases a security and the seller (a qualified bank or securities dealer) simultaneously commits to repurchase that security at a certain date at an agreed upon price, plus an agreed upon market rate of interest that is unrelated to the coupon rate or date of maturity of the security. This technique offers a method of earning income on idle cash. In these transactions, the securities purchased by the Fund have, at all times, a total value in excess of the value of the repurchase agreement and are held by the Trust’s custodian bank until repurchased. Certain costs may be incurred by the Fund in connection with the sale of the securities purchased by it if the seller does not repurchase them in accordance with the repurchase agreement. OAM will consider on an ongoing basis the creditworthiness of the institutions with which it enters into repurchase agreements and will monitor the value of the underlying securities to ensure that additional securities are deposited by the seller if the value of the securities purchased decreases below the resale price at any time. Under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), repurchase agreements may be considered loans by the Fund.

Options. Selling (or Writing) Covered Call Options—The Fund may write (sell) covered call options on its portfolio securities, the aggregate market value of which underlying securities is limited to 50% of the Fund’s net assets. A call option gives the buyer (holder) the right to purchase the underlying security at a specified price (the “exercise price”) within a certain time period. Where the writer (seller) of the option, in this case the Fund, already owns the underlying security, the call option is considered to be “covered.” The Fund will receive a premium, which is the market value of the option, when it writes (sells) a call option. The premium provides a partial hedge (protection) against declining prices and enables the Fund to generate a higher return during periods when OAM does not expect the underlying security to make any major price moves in the near future but still deems the underlying security to be, over the long term, an attractive investment for the Fund. In determining whether to write (sell) a covered call option on one of the Fund’s securities, OAM will consider the reasonableness of the anticipated premium in relation to the anticipated increase in market value of the underlying security over the option period. Although the writing (selling) of covered call options is believed by OAM to be a conservative investment technique that involves relatively little risk, risks involved in writing (selling) a covered call option include the possible inability to effect closing transactions at favorable prices and

the inability to participate in any appreciation of the underlying security above the exercise price plus premium. The Fund may also be exposed to a possible price decrease in the underlying security that might otherwise have been sold while the Fund continues to hold such underlying security during the option period, although any such loss during such period would be reduced by the amount of the premium received. The Fund does not consider a security covered by a call to be “pledged” as that term is used in the Fund’s investment policy limiting the pledging or mortgaging of its assets.

Buying Put and Call Options—The Fund may also invest up to 5% of its assets in the purchase of put and call options, primarily to minimize principal fluctuations. The Fund may enter into closing transactions, exercise their options or permit them to expire. The risks involved in purchasing put or call options include the possible loss of the premium.

The Fund may purchase put options on an underlying security owned by them. As the holder of a put option, the Fund would have the right to sell the underlying security at the exercise price at any time during the term of the option. While the Fund will not purchase options for leverage purposes, it may purchase put options for defensive purposes in order to protect against an anticipated decline (usually short-term) in the value of its securities. Such hedge protection is provided only during the life of the put option and only when the Fund, as the holder of the put option, is able to sell the underlying security at the put exercise price regardless of any additional decline in the security’s market price. For example, a put option may be purchased in order to protect unrealized appreciation of a security where the Fund deems it desirable to continue to hold the security. The premium paid for the put option and any transaction costs would reduce any capital gain otherwise available for distribution when the security is eventually sold.

Except as discussed below with respect to options on stock indices, the Fund has no current intention of purchasing put options at a time when the Fund does not own the underlying security; however, it reserves the right to do so. By purchasing put options on a security it does not own, the Fund would seek to benefit from a decline in the market price of the underlying security. If such a put option is not sold when it has remaining value, and if the market of the underlying security remains equal to or greater than the exercise price during the life of the put option, the Fund would lose its entire investment in the put option (i.e., the entire premium paid by the Fund). In order for the purchase of a put option to be profitable, the market price of the underlying security must decline sufficiently below the exercise price to cover the premium and transaction costs, unless the put option is sold in a closing sale transaction.

The Fund may also repurchase call options previously written on underlying securities it already owns in order to preserve unrealized gains.

The Fund may also purchase call and put options on stock indices (“stock index options”) for the purpose, in part, of partially hedging against the risk of unfavorable price movements adversely affecting the Fund’s securities or securities the Fund intends to buy and the Fund may sell stock index options in related closing transactions.

The principal uses of stock index options would be to provide a partial hedge for a portion of the Fund’s investment securities, and to offer a cash management tool. Purchasing stock index options could provide an efficient way to implement a partial decrease in portfolio market exposure in response to changing market conditions. Although techniques other than the purchase of options could be used to hedge the Fund’s investments, the Fund may be able to hedge its exposure more effectively, and perhaps at a lower cost, through the use of stock index options.

The Fund proposes to invest only in stock index options for which the underlying index is a broad market index such as the Standard & Poor’s Index, the Major Market Index, or the Russell 2000 Index. The Fund would propose to purchase broad stock index options only if they are listed on a national securities exchange and traded, in the opinion of the Fund’s investment adviser, with some significant volume.

The Fund will not enter into a stock index option if, as a result thereof, more than five percent (5%) of the Fund’s total assets (taken at market value at the time of entering into the contract) would be committed to options, whether options on individual securities or options on stock indices.

There are several risks in connection with the Fund’s use of stock index options as a hedging device. One risk arises because of the imperfect correlation between movements in the prices of the stock index options and movements in the prices of securities held by the Fund. Successful use of stock index options by the Fund for hedging purposes is also subject to the Fund’s adviser’s ability to correctly predict movements in the direction of the market. In addition, due to market distortions, the price movements of the stock index options might not correlate perfectly with price movements in the underlying stock index. Increased participation by speculators in the options market might also cause temporary price distortions.

The ability to establish and close out positions on options will be subject to the liquidity of the index options market. Absence of a liquid market on an exchange may be due to: (i) insufficient trading interest in certain options; (ii) restrictions imposed by an exchange on opening transactions or closing transactions, or both; (iii) trading halts, suspensions or other restrictions imposed with respect to particular classes or series of options, or underlying securities; (iv) unusual or unforeseen circumstances, such as severe stock market fluctuations, interrupting normal exchange operations; (v) inadequacy of an exchange’s or a clearing corporation’s facilities to handle increased trading volume; or (vi) discontinuance of the trading of options (or a particular class or series of options) by an exchange, for economic or other reasons. Higher than anticipated trading activity or other unforeseen events also could cause an exchange or clearing corporation to institute special procedures which may interfere with the timely execution of customers’ orders.

Stock index options may be closed out only on an exchange which provides a market for such options. For example, OEX stock index options currently can be purchased or sold only on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (“CBOE”). Although the Fund intends to purchase or sell stock index options only on exchanges where there appear to be active markets, there is no assurance that a liquid market will exist for any particular options contract at any particular time. In such event, it might not be possible to close a stock index option position.

Lending of Securities. The Fund may lend its investment securities in an amount up to 30% of its total assets (including value of collateral received) to qualified institutional investors who need to borrow securities in order to complete certain transactions. By lending its investment securities, the Fund attempts to increase its income through the receipt of interest on the loan. While the securities are being lent, the Fund will continue to receive the equivalent of any dividends or interest paid by the issuer thereof as well as interest on the collateral. Any gain or loss in the market price of the securities loaned that might occur during the term of the loan would be for the account of the Fund.

The Fund may lend its portfolio securities to qualified brokers, dealers, domestic and foreign banks or other financial institutions, so long as the terms and the structure of such loans are not inconsistent with the 1940 Act, or the Rules and Regulations or interpretations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) thereunder, which currently require that (a) the borrower pledge and maintain with the Fund collateral consisting of cash, an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a domestic U.S. bank, or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government having a value at all times of not less than 100% of the value of the securities loaned, (b) the borrower add to such collateral whenever the price of the securities loaned rises (i.e., the borrower “marks to the market” on a daily basis), (c) the loan be made subject to termination by the Fund at any time, (d) the Fund receives reasonable interest on the loan or its collateral (which may include the Fund investing any cash collateral in interest-bearing short-term investments), any dividends and distributions paid on the loaned securities and any increase in their market value, and (e) while voting rights on the loaned securities may pass to the borrower, the Board of Trustees be able to terminate the loan and regain the right to vote the securities if a material event adversely affecting the investment occurs.

As with any extension of credit, portfolio security loans involve certain risks in the event a borrower should fail financially, including delays or inability to recover the loaned securities or foreclosure against the collateral. The Fund will consider on an ongoing basis the creditworthiness of the borrowers to which it makes portfolio security loans.

Foreign securities may be subject to foreign government taxes that reduce their attractiveness. Other risks of investing in such securities include political or economic instability in the country involved, the difficulty of predicting international trade patterns and the possible imposition of exchange controls. The prices of such securities may be more volatile than those of domestic securities and the markets for such securities may be less liquid. In addition, there may be less publicly available information about foreign issuers than about domestic issuers. Many foreign issuers are not subject to uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. There is generally less regulation of stock exchanges, brokers, banks and listed companies abroad than in the United States. With respect to certain foreign countries, there is a possibility of expropriation or diplomatic developments that could affect investment in these countries.

China Securities. Investing in securities of issuers in The People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong or Taiwan (collectively, referred to as “China”) involves special risks. First, the Fund’s investment focus on that region makes the Fund particularly subject to political, social, or economic conditions experienced in that region. Second, The People’s Republic of China and Taiwan constitute so-called “developing” or “emerging” economies and markets. Additional risks of investment in such markets include (i) less social, political, and economic stability; (ii) the smaller size of the securities markets in such countries and the lower volume of trading, which may result in a lack of liquidity and in greater price volatility; (iii) certain national policies which may restrict the Fund’s investment opportunities, including restrictions on investment in issuers or industries deemed sensitive to national interests, or expropriation or confiscation of assets or property, which could result in the Fund’s loss of its entire investment in that market; and (iv) less developed legal structures governing private or foreign investment or allowing for judicial redress for injury to private property.

Emerging Markets Companies. The Fund may invest in securities of issuers in developing or emerging markets. Developing countries lack the social, political and economic stability characteristic of the United States. Political instability among emerging markets countries can be common and may be caused by an uneven distribution of wealth, social unrest, labor strikes, civil wars and religious oppression. Economic instability in emerging markets countries may take the form of (i) high interest rates, (ii) high levels of inflation, including hyperinflation, (iii) high levels of unemployment or underemployment, (iv) changes in government economic and tax policies, including confiscatory taxation, and (v) imposition of trade barriers.

of their currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. Some emerging markets countries have experienced deficits and shortages in foreign exchange reserves. Governments have responded by restricting currency conversions. Future restrictive exchange controls could prevent or restrict the ability of an issuer in such market to make dividend or interest payments in the original currency of the obligation. In addition, even though the currencies of some emerging markets countries may be convertible into U.S. dollars, the conversion rates may be artificial to their actual market values.

In the past, governments within the emerging markets have become overly reliant on the international capital markets and other forms of foreign credit to finance public spending programs that cause large deficits. Often, interest payments have become too burdensome for the government to meet, representing a large percentage of total GDP. These foreign obligations have become the subject of political debate with the opposition parties pressuring the government to use its funds for social programs rather than making payments to foreign creditors. Either due to an inability to pay or submission to political pressure, foreign governments have been forced to seek a restructuring of their loan and/or bond obligations or have declared a temporary suspension of interest payments or have defaulted. These events have adversely affected the values of securities issued by foreign governments and companies in emerging markets countries and have negatively impacted not only their cost of borrowing, but their ability to borrow in the future as well.

Warrants. The Fund may invest no more than 5% of its total assets in warrants, and of that amount, no more than 2% of total assets may be invested in warrants that are listed on neither the New York Stock Exchange nor the American Stock Exchange. Warrants are securities giving the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy the stock of an issuer at a given price (generally higher than the value of the stock at the time of issuance) during a specified period or perpetually. Warrants may be acquired separately or in connection with the acquisition of securities. Warrants do not carry with them the right to dividends or voting rights with respect to the securities that they entitle their holder to purchase and they do not represent any rights in the assets of the issuer. As a result, warrants may be considered to have more speculative characteristics than certain other types of investments. In addition, the value of a warrant does not necessarily change with the value of the underlying securities and a warrant ceases to have value if it is not exercised prior to its expiration date.

Real Estate Investment Trusts. The Fund may invest in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). REITs are subject to volatility from risks associated with investments in real estate and investments dependent on income from real estate, such as fluctuating demand for real estate and sensitivity to adverse economic conditions. In addition, the failure of a REIT to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes would have an adverse effect upon the value of the Fund’s investment in that REIT. Each Fund may invest no more than 10% of its total assets in REITs. The Fund does not currently intend, however, to invest in REITs to the extent that more than 5% of its total assets will be invested in REITs during the current year.

Short Sales. The Fund may make short sales against the box. A short sale “against the box” is a short sale in which the Fund owns at least an equal amount of the securities sold short or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, without payment of any further consideration, securities of the same issue as, and at least equal in amount to, the securities sold short. The Fund does not currently intend to engage in short sales to the extent that more than 5% of its net assets will be held as collateral therefor during the current year.

The Fund may make short sales if it “covers” the securities sold short with cash or other liquid securities.

Convertible Securities and Preferred Stocks. The Fund may invest in convertible securities and preferred stocks. There are no restrictions on the credit quality of the convertible securities and preferred stocks in which the Fund may invest and the Fund may invest in convertible securities and preferred stocks that are not rated or that are below investment grade.

Arbitrage. The Fund has no current intention to engage in arbitrage (meaning the simultaneous purchase and sale of the same security in different markets but not on the purchase of call and put options on stock indices).

Cyber Security Risk. Investment companies such as the Fund and its service providers may be prone to operational and information security risks resulting from cyber-attacks. Cyber-attacks include, among other behaviors, stealing or corrupting data maintained online or digitally, denial of service attacks on websites, the unauthorized release of confidential information or various other forms of cyber security breaches. Cyber security attacks affecting the Fund or its adviser, custodian, transfer agent or other third party service providers may adversely impact the Fund. For instance, cyber-attacks may interfere with the processing of shareholder transactions, impact the Fund’s ability to calculate its NAV, cause the release of private shareholder information or confidential company information, impede trading, subject the Fund to regulatory fines or financial losses and cause reputational damage. The Fund may also incur additional costs for cyber security risk management purposes. Similar types of cyber security risks are also present for issuers of securities in which the Fund may invest, which could result in material adverse consequences for such issuers, and may cause the Fund’s investment in such issuers to lose value.

Portfolio Turnover. OAM buys and sells securities for the Fund to accomplish its investment objective. The frequency of portfolio transactions, the Fund’s turnover rate, will vary from year to year depending on market conditions. The Fund’s turnover during the period ended December 31, 2014 was 152%. A higher portfolio turnover rate (over 100%) may cause the Fund to pay higher transaction expenses, including more commissions and markups and also may result in quicker recognition of capital gains, resulting in more capital gains distributions that may be taxable to Shareholders.

Board Structure

The Audit Committee held two meetings in 2014.

The Pricing Committee held three meetings in 2014.

Risk Oversight

Consistent with its responsibility for oversight of the Trust and the Fund, the Board, among other things, oversees risk management of the Fund’s investment program and business affairs directly and through the committee structure that it has established. Risks to the Fund include, among others, investment risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, valuation risk and operational risk, as well as the overall business risk relating to the Fund. The Board has adopted, and periodically reviews, policies and procedures designed to address these risks. Under the overall supervision of the Board, the Adviser and other services providers to the Fund also have implemented a variety of processes, procedures and controls to address these risks. Different processes, procedures and controls are employed with respect to different types of risks. These processes include those that are embedded in the conduct of regular business by the Board and in the responsibilities of officers of the Trust and other service providers.

The Board requires senior officers of the Trust, including the President, Treasurer and Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”), to report to the full Board on a variety of matters at regular and special meetings of the Board and its committees, as applicable, including matters relating to risk management. The Treasurer also reports to the Audit Committee on the Trust’s internal controls and accounting and financial reporting policies and practices. The Audit Committee also receives reports from the Trust’s independent registered public accounting firm on internal control and financial reporting matters. On at least an annual basis, the Board receives a report from the CCO regarding the effectiveness of the Trust’s compliance program and the CCO meets separately with the non-interested trustees in executive session. In addition, the Board receives reports from the Adviser on the investments and securities trading of the Fund, as well as valuation reports and any issues related to portfolio compliance. The Board also receives reports from the Trust’s primary service providers on a periodic or regular basis, including the Adviser to the Fund as well as the Trust’s custodian, distributor and transfer agent. The Board also requires the Adviser to report to the Board on other matters relating to risk management on a regular and as-needed basis.

MANAGEMENT

The Fund’s investment adviser is Oberweis Asset Management, Inc. (“OAM”), an investment adviser based in Lisle, Illinois. James W. Oberweis is a controlling shareholder of OAM and serves as Chairman of the Board, director and the President of OAM. The principal nature of James W. Oberweis’ business is investment advisory and securities brokerage services. James D. Oberweis is also a controlling shareholder of OAM. James D. Oberweis is currently an Illinois state senator. Patrick B. Joyce is a shareholder of OAM and serves as a director, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Compliance Officer of OAM. The principal business of Patrick B. Joyce is investment advisory and securities brokerage services. For additional details concerning OAM, see the Fund’s Prospectus under the heading “Management of the Fund.” Pursuant to a written contract between the Trust and OAM, OAM is responsible for managing the investment and reinvestment of the Fund’s assets, determining in its discretion the securities to be purchased or sold and the portion of the Fund’s assets to be held uninvested, providing the Trust with records concerning OAM’s activities which the Trust is required to maintain under applicable law, and rendering regular reports to the Trust’s Trustees and officers concerning Fund responsibilities. OAM’s investment advisory services to the Trust are all subject to the supervision of the Trustees, and must be in compliance with the investment objective, policies and restrictions set forth in the

Fund’s Prospectus and this SAI and with applicable laws and regulations. In addition, OAM is authorized to select broker-dealers, including OSI, that may execute purchases and sales of the securities for the Fund. (See “Portfolio Transactions.”)

Ralf A. Scherschmidt, portfolio manager of the Fund, is primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund and other accounts. As of December 31, 2014, information on these other accounts is as follows:

As indicated in the above table, the Fund’s portfolio manager is responsible for the day to day management of other accounts, including other accounts with investment strategies similar to the Fund. Those accounts include separately managed accounts and the personal/proprietary accounts of the Fund’s portfolio manager. The fees earned by OAM for managing client accounts may vary among those accounts. In addition, the Fund’s portfolio manager may personally invest in the Fund. These factors could create conflicts of interest because the Fund’s portfolio manager may have incentives to favor certain accounts over others, resulting in other accounts outperforming the Fund. A conflict may also exist if the portfolio manager identifies a limited investment opportunity that may be appropriate for more than one account, but the Fund is not able to take full advantage of that opportunity due to the need to allocate the opportunity among multiple accounts. In addition, the portfolio manager may execute transactions for another account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by the Fund.

Mr. Scherschmidt’s compensation consists of a base, an incentive-based fee and equity ownership in OAM. Most of the incentive reward is quantitatively defined in advance and is based on a combination of the Fund’s performance in relation to its benchmark (the MSCI World ex-U.S. Small Cap Growth Index) and the International Opportunities strategy’s revenues. To ensure long-term commitment, Mr. Scherschmidt benefits from equity ownership in OAM.

As of December 31, 2014, the dollar value of equity securities in the Fund owned by Mr. Scherschmidt was: $100,001-$500,000.

As compensation for its investment advisory and management services, OAM receives from the Fund at the end of each month a fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.

For the period ended December 31, 2014, the advisory and management fees incurred by the Fund were $857,377. Pursuant to an Expense Limitation Agreement, OAM reimbursed the Fund $244,487 for the period ended December 31, 2014.

OAM also provides the Fund with non-investment advisory, management and administrative services pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Management Agreement. OAM is responsible under such agreement for providing the Fund with those management and administrative services which are reasonably necessary for conducting the business affairs of the Fund. In addition, OAM provides the Fund with office space and basic facilities for management of the Fund’s affairs, and bookkeeping, accounting, record keeping and data processing facilities and services.

OAM is responsible for preparing and updating the Trust’s SEC registration statement and state filings, tax reports to shareholders and similar documents. OAM pays the compensation of all officers and personnel of the Trust for their services to the Trust as well as the Trustees of the Trust who are interested persons of the Trust. OAM also provides information and certain administrative services to shareholders of the Fund. These services include, among other things, transmitting redemption requests to the Trust’s Transfer Agent and transmitting the proceeds of redemption of shares of the Trust pursuant to a shareholder’s instructions when such redemption is effected through OAM; providing telephone and written communications with respect to its shareholders’ account inquiries; assisting its shareholders in altering privileges and ownership of their accounts; and serving as a source of information for its existing shareholders in answering questions concerning the Trust and their transactions with the Trust.

Pursuant to an Expense Limitation Agreement, OAM is obligated to reimburse the Fund for 100% of the amount by which the Fund’s ordinary operating expenses during any fiscal year, including the management and advisory fees, exceed 1.10% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.

Excluded from the calculation of ordinary operating expenses are expenses such as interest, taxes and brokerage commissions and extraordinary items such as litigation costs. Any such reimbursement is computed and accrued on a daily and settled on a monthly basis based upon the expenses and average net assets computed through the last business day of the month. As of the end of the Trust’s fiscal year, the aggregate amounts of reimbursement, if any, by OAM to the Fund in excess of the amount necessary to limit the operating expenses on an annual basis to said expense limitation shall be refunded to OAM. In no event will OAM be required to reimburse the Fund in an amount exceeding its management and investment advisory fees.

Payments to Third Parties

OAM or OSI, out of their own resources and without additional cost to the Fund or its shareholders, may provide cash payments to intermediaries such as banks, broker-dealers, financial advisers or other financial institutions for sub-administration, sub-transfer agency and other shareholder services associated with shareholders whose shares are held of record in omnibus, other group accounts or accounts traded through registered securities clearing agents, or to intermediaries who otherwise sell shares of the Trust. These cash payments may be made to intermediaries for inclusion of the Fund on sales lists, in other sales programs or as an expense reimbursement in cases where the intermediary provides shareholder services to Fund shareholders. OAM or OSI currently make payments from their own assets in connection with the servicing, sale, distribution and/or retention of Fund shares that generally range up to .15% of assets serviced.

As of the date of this SAI, OAM and OSI anticipate that Charles Schwab & Co., Pershing, LLC and National Financial Services, LLC will receive additional payments as described above. OAM or OSI may enter into additional arrangements or change or discontinue existing arrangements with intermediaries at any time without notice.

These payment arrangements, however, will not change the price that an investor pays for Trust shares or the amount that the Fund receives to invest on behalf of an investor and will not increase Trust expenses. You may wish to take such payment arrangements into account when considering and evaluating any recommendations relating to Trust shares and discuss this matter with your investment dealer/intermediary.

Although the Fund may use an intermediary that sells shares of the Trust to their customers to effect portfolio transactions for the Trust, OAM does not consider sales of Trust shares as a factor in the selection of broker-dealers to execute those transactions.

EXPENSES BORNE BY THE FUND

Other than those expenses payable by OAM and/or OSI, the Fund will pay all of its expenses, including the following:

(a) Federal, state and local or other governmental agency taxes or fees levied against the Trust.

(b) Costs, including the interest expense, of borrowing money.

(c) Brokerage fees and commissions and other transaction costs in connection with the purchase or sale of portfolio securities for the Fund.

(d) Fees and expenses of the Trustees other than those who are “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Trust.

(g) Audit and accounting expenses of the independent auditors.

(h) Custodian and transfer and dividend paying agent fees and expenses and shareholder service expenses.

(i) Fees and expenses related to registering, qualifying and maintaining registration and qualification of the Trust and its Shares for distribution under federal, state and other laws.

(j) Fees and expenses incident to the preparation and filing of reports with regulatory agencies.

(k) Expenses of preparing, printing (including typesetting) and mailing prospectuses, shareholder reports, proxy materials and notices to shareholders of the Trust.

(m) Fees and expenses incurred in connection with any investment company organization or trade association of which the Trust may be a member.

(n) Expenses related to issuance or redemption of the Fund’s shares.

PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

Decisions with respect to the purchase and sale of portfolio securities on behalf of the Fund are made by OAM. OAM is authorized to place orders for securities with various broker-dealers, including OSI, subject to the requirements of applicable laws and regulations. Orders for securities transactions are placed by OAM with a view to obtaining the best combination of price and execution available. In seeking to achieve the best combination of price and execution, OAM attempts to evaluate the overall quality and reliability of the broker-dealers and the services provided, including research services, general execution capability, reliability and

integrity, willingness to take positions in securities, general operational capabilities and financial condition. However, the responsibility of OAM to attempt to obtain the best combination of price and execution does not obligate it to solicit a competitive bid for each transaction. Furthermore, under the Investment Advisory and Management Agreement, OAM is not obligated to seek the lowest available cost to the Fund, so long as it determines in good faith that the broker-dealer’s commission, spread or discount is reasonable in relation to the value of the execution and research services provided by such a broker-dealer to the Fund, or OAM when viewed in terms of that particular transaction or its overall responsibilities with respect to all of its clients, including the Fund, as to which it offers advice or exercises investment discretion.

A greater discount, spread or commission may be paid to non-affiliated broker-dealers that provide research services, which research may be used by OAM in managing assets of its clients, including the Fund. Research services may include data or recommendations concerning particular securities as well as a wide variety of information concerning companies, industries, investment strategy and general economic, financial and political analysis and forecasting. In some instances, OAM may receive research, statistical and/or pricing services it might otherwise have had to perform itself. However, OAM cannot readily determine the extent to which net prices or commission rates charged by most broker-dealers reflect the value of its research, statistical and/or pricing services. As OAM is the principal source of information and advice to the Trust and is responsible for managing the investment and reinvestment of the Fund’s assets and determining the securities to be purchased and sold, it is believed by the Trust’s management to be in the interests of the Trust for OAM in fulfilling its responsibilities to the Trust, to be authorized to receive and evaluate the research and information provided by other securities brokers or dealers, and to compensate such brokers or dealers for their research and information services. Any such information received may be utilized by OAM for the benefit of its other accounts as well, in the same manner that the Trust might also benefit from information obtained by OAM in performing services for its other accounts. Although it is believed that research services received directly or indirectly benefit all of OAM’s accounts, the degree of benefit varies by account and is not directly related to the commissions or other remuneration paid by such account.

Some brokers and dealers used by OAM provide research and other services described above. For the period ended December 31, 2014, the Fund paid $171,224 in total brokerage commissions on securities transactions in the amount of $118,496,347 to broker-dealers primarily on the basis of research and other services provided to the Fund.

Transactions of the Fund in the over-the-counter market and the third market may be executed for the Fund by OSI as agent with primary market makers acting as principal, except where OAM believes that better prices or execution may be obtained otherwise. Transactions with primary market makers reflect the spread between the bid and the ask prices. Occasionally, the Fund may make purchases of underwritten issues at prices which include underwriting discount fees.

For the period ended December 31, 2014, the total brokerage commissions paid by the Fund was $769,408, none of which was to OSI. The total amount of securities transactions on which the Fund paid brokerage commissions during such period was $448,451,152. The total amount of principal transactions of the Fund for the period ended December 31, 2014 for which no commission was incurred was $239,253,000.

DISCLOSURE OF PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS

The Fund will publicly disclose its holdings in accordance with regulatory requirements, such as periodic portfolio disclosure in filings with the SEC. Except as provided below, neither the Trust nor OAM shall provide portfolio holding information to any other persons until such information has been disclosed in the publicly available filings with the SEC that are required to include the information, which are generally filed with the SEC approximately 60 days after the end of each calendar quarter.

Quarterly shareholder letters are posted to The Oberweis Funds’ Web site following each March and September quarter-end (within seven business days after the end of the quarter) that include, among other things, OAM’s/Portfolio Manager’s market commentary, performance information regarding the Fund, and information regarding the Fund’s ownership of certain individual securities (such as the Fund’s top five or top ten holdings).

In addition, the Portfolio Manager and other senior officers or spokespersons of the Trust or OAM may from time to time disclose to or discuss with public media through interviews with reporters (of the press, television or radio), through other appearances on television or radio (such as CNBC, Bloomberg) or through written articles (in Forbes or other print media) items such as (a) the Fund’s ownership of certain individual holding(s); (b) views on matters affecting the price or business of specific Fund holding(s); (c) reasons for buying and selling specific portfolio holding(s); (d) reasons for believing certain holdings are good long term investments for the Fund, (e) favorite stocks, (f) future plans for structuring the Fund, and/or (g) other items of a similar nature. The securities subject to such statements may or may not have been previously disclosed.

Further, material non-public holdings information may be provided as part of the normal business and investment activities of the Fund to parties who need access to such information in the performance of their contractual duties and responsibilities including: auditors; the custodian; broker-dealers in connection with the purchase or sale of Fund securities or requests for price quotations or bids on one or more securities; counsel to the Trust or the non-interested trustees; other third party service providers (such as financial printers, proxy voting services and pricing services); regulatory authorities; stock exchanges and other listing organizations; and parties to litigation. The Fund may also disclose to an issuer the number of shares of the issuer (or percentage of outstanding shares) held by the Fund.

CODE OF ETHICS

PROXY VOTING

The Board of Trustees has delegated the authority for voting proxies relating to the Fund’s portfolio securities to OAM, who has agreed to vote such proxies according to OAM’s Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures. OAM’s Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures set forth the general principles used to determine how OAM votes proxies on securities in client accounts for which OAM has proxy voting authority, including the Trust. OAM’s general policy is to vote proxies in the best interests of clients. The principles which guide the voting policy of OAM are maximizing the value of client assets and promoting the rights of clients and beneficial owners of the companies in whose shares they invest. OAM’s investment strategies are predicated on the belief that the quality of management is often the key to ultimate success or failure of a business. Because OAM generally makes investments in companies in which OAM has confidence in management, proxies generally are voted in favor of management’s recommendation. OAM may vote a proxy in a manner contrary to management’s recommendation if in the judgment of OAM, the proposal would not enhance shareholder values.

OAM has retained Risk Metrics Group (“RMG”), a proxy voting and consulting firm, to receive proxy voting statements, provide information and research, make proxy vote recommendations, and handle various administrative functions associated with the voting of client proxies. While RMG makes the proxy voting recommendations, OAM retains the ultimate authority on how to vote.

OAM’s Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures describe how OAM addresses conflicts of interest between OAM and its clients, including Fund shareholders, with respect to proxy voting decisions. If OAM determines that, through reasonable inquiry or otherwise, an issue raises a potential material conflict of interest, OAM will follow the recommendations of RMG except as follows. If OAM and/or the Proxy Committee believes that it would be in the interest of OAM’s clients to vote a proxy other than according to the recommendation of RMG, the Proxy Committee will prepare a report that (1) describes the conflict of interest; (2) discusses procedures used to address such conflict of interest; and (3) confirms that the recommendation was made solely on the investment merits and without regard to any other consideration.

Information regarding how the Fund voted proxies related to portfolio securities for the 12-month period ended June 30 will be available without charge, upon request by calling 1-800-323-6166 and on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

SHAREHOLDER SERVICES

The Fund’s Prospectus under the heading Shareholder Information/How to Purchase Shares, How to Redeem Shares and Shareholder Services describes information in addition to that set forth below. When a shareholder makes an initial investment in the Fund, a shareholder account is opened in accordance with the Trust’s Account Application instructions. After each transaction for the account of a shareholder, confirmation of all deposits, purchases, reinvestments, redemptions, withdrawal payments, and other transactions in the shareholder’s account will be forwarded to the shareholder.

The Fund will not issue certificates for its shares; the investor will be the record owner of all shares in his/her account with full shareholder rights. Certain of the functions performed by the Trust in connection with the operation of the accounts described above have been delegated by the Trust to its Transfer Agent.

In addition to the purchase and redemption services described above, the Trust offers its shareholders the special services described in the Fund’s Prospectus. Applications and information about any shareholder services may be obtained from OAM.

DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE

See the Fund’s Prospectus under the heading Shareholder Information/How to Purchase Shares and Pricing of Fund Shares, for descriptions of certain details concerning the determination of Net Asset Value (“NAV”). The NAV of the shares of the Fund is computed once daily, as of the later of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) or the Chicago Board Options Exchange (“CBOE”), on each day the NYSE is open for trading. All securities in the Fund other than options are priced as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE. The options in the Fund are priced as of the close of trading on the CBOE. The NAV per share is computed by dividing the value of the Fund’s securities plus all other assets minus all liabilities by the total number of Fund shares outstanding. In valuing the Fund’s securities, each listed and unlisted security, other than options, for which last sale information is regularly reported is valued at the last reported sale price prior to the close of the NYSE. If there has been no sale on such day, the last reported bid price is used. Short options are valued at the last reported highest bid price on any option exchange and long options are valued at the last reported offer price on any option exchange as of the close of trading on the CBOE. Any unlisted security for which last sale information is not regularly reported and any listed debt security which has an inactive listed market for which over-the-counter market quotations are readily available is valued at the highest bid price as of the close of the NYSE determined on the basis of reasonable inquiry. Restricted securities and any other securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued by appraisal at their fair values as determined in good faith under procedures established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Board of Trustees. The Fund may use a fair valuation model provided by an independent pricing service, which is intended to reflect fair value when a security’s value or a meaningful portion of the Fund’s portfolio is believed to have been materially affected by a significant event that has occurred between the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded and the close of the NYSE. The Fund’s valuation policies set forth certain triggers which instruct when to use the valuation model. The value assigned to a security by the fair valuation model is a determination of fair value made under the Fund’s valuation policies and under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. In such a case, the Fund’s value for a security is likely to be different from the last quoted price. In all cases, the value of fair valued securities may be different from the last reported sale price (or the last reported bid price), and there is no guarantee that a fair valued security will be sold at the price at which the Fund is carrying the security. Short-term debt obligations, commercial paper and repurchase agreements are valued on the basis of quoted yields for securities of comparable maturity, quality and type or on the basis of amortized cost.

PURCHASE OF SHARES

See the Fund’s Prospectus under the heading Shareholder Information/How to Purchase Shares for detailed information concerning the purchase of shares of the Fund. Shares of the Fund are sold at the NAV per share next determined after the purchase order is received in proper form by UMB Fund Services, Inc., the Trust’s Transfer Agent.

REDEMPTION OF SHARES

See the Fund’s Prospectus under the heading Shareholder Information/How to Redeem Shares for detailed information concerning redemption of the shares of the Fund. The Trust may suspend the right to redeem shares or postpone the date of payment for more than seven (7) days for any period during which: (a) the NYSE is closed, other than weekend and holiday closings, or the SEC determines that trading on the NYSE is restricted; (b) the SEC determines there is an emergency as a result of which it is not reasonably practical for the Fund to sell the investment securities or to calculate its NAV; or (c) the SEC permits such suspension for the protection of the Fund’s shareholders. In the case of a suspension of the right of redemption, a shareholder may either withdraw his request for redemption or receive payment at the NAV of his shares existing after termination of the suspension.

Although it is the Trust’s present policy to make payment of redemption proceeds in cash, if the Trust’s Trustees determine it to be appropriate, redemption proceeds may be paid in whole or in part by a distribution in kind of securities held by the Fund, subject to the limitation that, pursuant to an election under Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act, the Fund is obligated to redeem shares solely in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the net asset value of the Fund during any 90-day period for any one account. The value of such securities shall be determined as of the close of trading of the NYSE on the business day on which the redemption is effective. In such circumstances, a shareholder might be required to bear transaction costs to dispose of such securities. A redemption in kind is a taxable transaction for federal income tax purposes.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

The following is a general summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of investing in the Fund. It is not intended to be a complete discussion of all such federal income tax consequences nor does it deal with all categories of investors. This discussion reflects applicable federal income tax laws of the United States as of the date of the Fund’s Prospectus and this SAI, which provisions are subject to change by legislative, judicial or administrative action, possibly with retroactive effect. Shareholders are advised to consult their own tax advisers before making an investment in the Fund.

The Fund has elected to be treated and to qualify or a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), so that the Fund will not be liable for federal income taxes to the extent that its net investment income and net realized capital gains are currently distributed to its shareholders. The Fund will qualify for this status as long as it: (a) derives at least 90% of its gross income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to certain securities loans, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or foreign currencies, other income (including gain from options, futures or forward contracts) derived with respect to its business of investing in such stock, securities or foreign currencies, and net income derived from interests in qualified publicly traded partnerships; (b) invests in securities that satisfy certain diversification requirements; and (c) distributes to its shareholders each year at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid) and net tax-exempt interest income, if any.

If in any taxable year the Fund fails to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Code, the Fund’s distributions, to the extent derived from its current or accumulated earnings and profits, will constitute dividends, which will generally be eligible for the dividends received deduction available to corporate shareholders under Section 243 of the Code. Furthermore, in such event, individual and other noncorporate shareholders of the Fund would generally be able to treat such distributions as “qualified dividend income” eligible for reduced rates of federal income taxation, provided certain holding period and other requirements are satisfied.

Except for those shareholders exempt from federal income taxation or investing through a tax-advantaged account, dividends and capital gains distributions are taxable to shareholders whether paid in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the Fund. Except as provided below, dividends from net investment income are generally taxable to shareholders as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. For corporate shareholders, such income dividends from domestic corporations may be eligible for the deduction for dividends received. For individual and other noncorporate shareholders, a portion of such dividends may qualify to be treated as “qualified dividend income” subject to reduced rates of federal income taxation. Dividends from foreign corporations are not treated as “qualified dividend income” if the foreign corporation is not incorporated in a possession of the United States or is not eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States (unless the foreign corporation stock is readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States) or if the foreign corporation is a passive foreign investment company. Distributions of long-term capital gains are taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gains regardless of the length of time that such shareholders have owned shares in the Fund. Short-term capital gain distributions are taxable to shareholders as ordinary income. Shareholders will be notified annually as to the federal income tax status of dividends and capital gains distributions. Such dividends and distributions may also be subject to state, local and other taxes.

Income dividends taxed as ordinary income are subject to federal income tax at rates up to 39.6% for individuals. “Qualified dividend income” is currently taxed at rates up to 20% for individual and other noncorporate shareholders. Long-term capital gain distributions (relating to assets held by the Fund for more than 12 months) made to individual and other noncorporate shareholders are currently taxable at a maximum rate of 20%. For corporate shareholders, long-term capital gain distributions are taxed at the same rate as ordinary income.

In order to avoid a 4% federal excise tax on undistributed amounts, the Fund must declare, by the end of the calendar year, a dividend to shareholders of record that represents 98% of its ordinary income for the calendar year plus 98.2% of its capital gain net income for the period from November 1 of the previous year through October 31 of the current year plus any undistributed ordinary income from the prior calendar year, plus any undistributed capital gain net income for the one-year period ended October 31 of the prior calendar year, less any overdistribution in the prior calendar year. The Fund intends to declare or distribute dividends during the appropriate periods in an amount sufficient to avoid this 4% excise tax.

Any gain resulting from the sale or exchange of the Fund’s shares generally will be taxable as capital gains. If a shareholder held such shares for more than one year, the gain will be a long-term capital gain. Long-term capital gain is currently taxable to individuals at a maximum federal income tax rate of 20%. Any loss realized on a sale or exchange will be disallowed to the extent that substantially identical shares are reacquired (including through dividend reinvestment) within a period of 61 days beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after the disposition of such shares. In such a case, the basis of the shares acquired will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed loss. Any loss incurred by shareholders on the redemption of shares of the Fund held six months or less will be treated as long-term capital losses to the extent of any capital gains distributions made by the Fund with respect to such shares. The ability to deduct capital losses may also be limited by other provisions of the Code.

An additional 3.8% Medicare tax is imposed on certain net investment income (including income dividends and capital gain distributions received from the Fund and net gains from redemptions or other taxable dispositions of Fund shares) of U.S. individuals, estates and trusts to the extent that such person’s “modified adjusted gross income” (in the case of an individual) or “adjusted gross income” (in the case of an estate or trust) exceeds a threshold amount.

Options, short sales, financial futures contracts and foreign currency transactions entered into by the Fund are subject to special tax rules that may accelerate income, defer losses, cause adjustments to the holding period of securities, convert capital gain into ordinary income, and convert short-term capital loss into long-term capital loss. As a result, these rules could affect the amount, timing, and character of Fund distributions.

Under the Code, gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in exchange rates which occur between the time the Fund accrues income or receivables or accrues expenses or other liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and the time the Fund actually collects such income or pays such liabilities generally are treated as ordinary income or loss. Similarly, on disposition of debt securities denominated in a foreign currency, gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in the value of the foreign currency between the date of acquisition of the security or contract and the date of disposition also may be treated as ordinary gain or loss. These gains and losses may increase or decrease the amount of the Fund’s investment company taxable income to be distributed to its shareholders as ordinary income.

Income received by the Fund from sources within foreign countries may be subject to withholding and other taxes imposed by such countries. Tax conventions between certain countries and the U.S. may reduce or eliminate such taxes. If more than 50% of the value of the Fund’s total assets at the close of its taxable year consists of securities of foreign corporations, the Fund will be eligible to elect to “pass through” to the Fund’s shareholders the amount of eligible foreign income and similar taxes paid by the Fund. If this election is made, a shareholder generally subject to federal income tax will be required to include in gross income (in addition to taxable dividends actually received) his or her pro rata share of foreign taxes in computing his or her taxable income and to deduct such foreign taxes or use such taxes as a foreign tax credit against his or her U.S. federal income tax liability, subject in each case to certain limitations contained in the Code. No deduction for foreign taxes may be claimed by a shareholder who does not itemize deductions. Each shareholder will be notified after the close of the Fund’s taxable year whether the foreign taxes paid by the Fund will “pass through” for that year.

If the Fund receives a so-called “excess distribution” with respect to stock in a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”), the Fund itself may be subject to tax on a portion of the excess distribution, whether or not the corresponding income is distributed by the Fund to shareholders. A foreign corporation is classified as a PFIC for a taxable year if at least 50% of its assets produces passive income or is held for the production of passive income or 75% or more of its gross income for the taxable year is passive income. In general, under the PFIC rules, an excess distribution is treated as having been realized ratably over the period during which the Fund held the PFIC stock. The Fund itself will be subject to U.S. federal income tax (including interest) on the portion, if any, of an excess distribution that is so allocated to prior taxable years. Certain distributions from a PFIC as well as gain from the sale of PFIC stock may be treated as excess distributions. Excess distributions are characterized as ordinary income even though, absent application of the PFIC rules, certain excess distributions might have been classified as capital gain.

The Fund may be eligible to elect alternative tax treatment with respect to PFIC stock. Under an election that currently is available in some circumstances, the Fund generally would be required to include its share of the PFIC’s income and net capital gain annually, regardless of whether distributions are received from the PFIC in a given year. If this election were made, the special rules discussed above relating to the taxation of excess distributions would not apply. In addition, another election may be available that would involve marking to market the Fund’s PFIC shares at the end of each taxable year (and on certain other dates prescribed in the Code), with the result that unrealized gains are treated as though they were realized. If this election were made, tax at the Fund level under the PFIC rules would generally be eliminated, but the Fund could, in limited circumstances, incur nondeductible interest charges. In some circumstances, the Fund may not be able to make available elections.

Because the application of the PFIC rules may affect, among other things, the character of gains and the amount of gain or loss and the timing of the recognition of income with respect to PFIC shares, and may subject the Fund itself to tax on certain income from PFIC shares, the amount that must be distributed to shareholders and will be taxed to shareholders as ordinary income or long-term capital gain may be increased or decreased substantially as compared to a fund that did not invest in PFIC shares.

For any of its fiscal years, the Fund may use an accounting method (known as “equalization”) that is designed to allocate equitably the tax burden of the Fund to all of its shareholders regardless of when during a tax

year an individual shareholder redeemed (if ever) his or her shares of the Fund. Equalization allocates a pro rata share of taxable income to departing shareholders when they redeem shares of the Fund, reducing the amount of the distribution to be made to remaining shareholders of the Fund.

Federal law requires the Fund to withhold 28% from dividends, distributions and/or redemption proceeds (including from exchanges) that occur in certain shareholder accounts if the shareholder has not properly furnished a correct taxpayer identification number (in the case of individuals, a social security number) or has not certified that withholding does not apply or if the Internal Revenue Service notifies the Trust that the shareholder is subject to backup withholding. Amounts withheld may be applied to the shareholder’s federal income tax liability and a refund may be obtained from the Internal Revenue Service if withholding results in overpayment of taxes for such year.

SHAREHOLDER MEETINGS AND VOTING RIGHTS

As a general rule, the Trust is not required to and will not hold annual or other meetings of the shareholders. Special meetings of shareholders for actions requiring a shareholder vote may be requested in writing by holders of at least twenty-five percent (25%) (or ten percent (10%) if the purpose of the meeting is to determine if a Trustee is to be removed from office) of the outstanding shares of the Trust or as may be required by applicable law. Under the Trust’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust, as amended (“Declaration of Trust”), shareholders are entitled to vote in connection with the following matters: (1) for the election or removal of Trustees if a meeting is called for such purpose; (2) with respect to the adoption of any contract for which approval is required by the 1940 Act; (3) with respect to any termination or reorganization of the Fund to the extent and as provided in the Declaration of the Trust; (4) with respect to any amendment of the Declaration of Trust (other than amendments changing the name of the Trust or the Fund, supplying any omission, curing any ambiguity or curing, correcting or supplementing any defective or inconsistent provision thereof); (5) as to whether or not a court action, proceeding or claim should or should not be brought or maintained derivatively or as a class action on behalf of the Trust or the shareholders, to the same extent as the stockholders of a Massachusetts business corporation; and (6) with respect to such additional matters relating to the Trust as may be required by law, the Declaration of Trust, the By-Laws of the Trust, or any registration of the Trust with the SEC or any state, or as the Trustees may consider necessary or desirable. Shareholders will vote in the aggregate, except when voting by individual Fund is required under the 1940 Act or when the Board of Trustees determines that voting by Fund is appropriate. The Declaration of Trust specifically authorizes the Board of Trustees to terminate the Trust (or the Fund) without shareholder approval by notice to the shareholders. Each Trustee serves until the next meeting of

shareholders, if any, called for the purpose of electing Trustees and until the election and qualification of his successor or until such Trustee sooner dies, resigns, retires or is removed by the majority vote of the shareholders or by the Trustees.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Trust History

The Trust is a diversified, open-end management investment company, organized as a business trust under the laws of Massachusetts on July 7, 1986. This SAI relates to the Fund. The Trust currently offers seven series, six of which are described in a separate statement of additional information. The Trust’s Declaration of Trust and the By-Laws of the Trust are designed to make the Trust similar in many respects to a corporation. However, under Massachusetts law, shareholders of a business trust may, under certain circumstances, be held personally liable for the obligations of the trust, which is not the case in a corporation. The Declaration of Trust provides that shareholders shall not be subject to any personal liability to any person extending credit to, contracting with or having any claims against the Trust and that every written agreement, obligation, instrument or undertaking made by the Trust shall contain a provision that the same is not binding upon the shareholders personally. Moreover, the Declaration of Trust provides for indemnification out of Trust property for all losses and expenses of any shareholder held personally liable for the obligations of the Trust, and the Trust will be covered by insurance which the Trustees believe to be adequate to cover foreseeable tort claims. Thus, the risk of a shareholder incurring financial loss on account of shareholder liability is considered remote.

Shares of the Fund

Pursuant to the Trust’s Declaration of Trust, the Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest in one or more series of “Funds,” all having no par value. Shares of the Fund have equal non-cumulative voting rights and equal rights with respect to dividends, assets and liquidation of the Fund. Shares are fully paid and non-assessable by the Trust when issued, are transferable without restriction and have no preemptive or conversion rights.

Custodian and Transfer Agent

The Custodian for the Trust is UMB Bank, N.A., 928 Grand Blvd. 5^TH Floor, Kansas City, Missouri 64106, a national banking association. The Trust has authorized the Custodian to deposit certain securities of the Fund in central depository systems as permitted by federal law. The Fund may invest in obligations of the Custodian and may purchase or sell securities from or to the Custodian. UMB Fund Services, Inc., 235 West Galena Street, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53212, a Wisconsin corporation, is the Trust’s Transfer Agent and acts as a dividend disbursing and redemption agent for the Trust. UMB Bank, N.A. and UMB Fund Services, Inc. are both wholly owned subsidiaries of UMB Financial Corp., a Missouri corporation.
