SUMMARY SECTION

Rothschild U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund

Investment Objective

The Rothschild U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund’s (the “U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund” or the “Fund”) objective is to seek 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.

	Institutional	Investor
Shareholder Fees (fees paid directly from your investment)
Redemption Fee (as a percentage of amount redeemed within 30 days of purchase)	1.00%	1.00%
Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)
Management Fees	0.55%	0.55%
Distribution and Service (12b-1) Fees	0.00%	0.25%
Other Expenses (includes 0.10% shareholder servicing fee for Investor Class shares)	6.05%	6.15%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses	6.60%	6.95%
Less: Expense Waiver/Reimbursement(1)	-5.95%	-5.95%
Net Annual Fund Operating Expenses	0.65%	1.00%

(1)

Rothschild Asset Management Inc. (the “Adviser”) has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and/or pay Fund expenses (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, interest expense in connection with investment activities, taxes, dividends on short positions and extraordinary expenses) in order to limit the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement to 0.65% and 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Institutional Class shares and Investor Class shares, respectively (the “Expense Caps”) indefinitely, but at least through December 31, 2018. To the extent that the Adviser waives its fees and/or absorbs expenses to satisfy the Expense Caps, it may seek repayment of a portion or all of such amounts at any time within three fiscal years after the fiscal year in which such amounts were waived or absorbed, subject to the Expense Caps.

Example

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same (taking into account the Expense Caps in each year). Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Institutional	1 Year: $66	3 Years: $208

Investor	1 Year: $102	3 Years: $318

Table of Contents - Prospectus

SUMMARY SECTION

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example above, affect the Fund’s performance. As the Fund is new, it does not have portfolio turnover as of the date of this Prospectus.

Principal Investment Strategies

In normal market conditions, the U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in common stocks and other equity securities of large capitalization U.S. companies. The Fund defines a large-cap company as one whose market capitalization falls within the range of the Russell 1000® Index at the time of purchase. As of August 31, 2014, the median market cap of the Russell 1000® Index was approximately $7.862 billion. The market capitalization of the companies in the Fund’s portfolio and the Russell 1000® Index changes over time; the Fund will not automatically sell or cease to purchase stock of a company it already owns just because the company’s market capitalization changes.

The Fund invests in securities which the portfolio management team believes are attractively valued with the potential to exceed investor expectations. The Fund’s investment team analyzes a variety of quantitative and fundamental inputs in making stock decisions, and the team seeks to build portfolios which are well diversified by stock and by economic sector. The Fund may sell securities which no longer meet the investment criteria of the portfolio management team.

Principal Investment Risks

There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your investment in the Fund. The following risks could affect the value of your investment in the Fund:

·	General Market Risk: The risk that security market values may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably.

·	Management Risk: The risk that the Adviser may fail to implement the Fund’s investment strategies and meet its investment objective.

Large Company Risk: Larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges like changes in consumer tastes or innovative smaller competitors. Also, large-cap companies are sometimes unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion.

·	New Fund Risk: The Fund is new with no operating history and there can be no assurance that the Fund will grow to or maintain an economically viable size, in which case the Board may determine to liquidate the Fund.

Performance

When the Fund has been in operation for a full calendar year, performance information will be shown here. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at www.[_____].com or by calling the Fund toll-free at [ ].

Tax Information

The Fund’s distributions are taxed as ordinary income or capital gains, unless you are investing through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an IRA. Distributions on investments made through tax-deferred arrangements may be taxed later upon withdrawal of assets from those accounts.

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 intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

Rothschild Asset Management Inc.

SUMMARY SECTION

Principal Investment Strategies

In normal market conditions, the U.S. Small-Cap Growth Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in common stocks and other equity securities of small capitalization U.S. companies. The Fund defines small capitalization companies as companies whose market capitalizations fall within the range of the Russell 2000® Growth Index at the time of purchase, and invests primarily in equity securities of small-cap growth companies as defined by the Russell 2000 Growth Index. As of August 31, 2014, the median market cap of the Russell 2000® Growth Index was approximately $0.85 billion. The market capitalization of the companies in the Fund’s portfolio and the Russell 2000® Index changes over time; the Fund will not automatically sell or cease to purchase stock of a company it already owns just because the company’s market capitalization changes.

Principal Investment Risks

There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your investment in the Fund. The following risks could affect the value of your investment in the Fund:

·	General Market Risk: The risk that security market values may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably.

·	Management Risk: The risk that the Adviser may fail to implement the Fund’s investment strategies and meet its investment objective.

·	Small Company Risk: Investing in securities of small-sized companies may involve greater volatility than investing in larger and more established companies.

·	Growth Style Investing Risk: Growth stocks may be more volatile than other types of stocks and may perform differently from the market as a whole.

·	New Fund Risk: The Fund is new with no operating history and there can be no assurance that the Fund will grow to or maintain an economically viable size, in which case the Board may determine to liquidate the Fund.

INVESTMENT STRATEGIES AND RISKS

The investment objectives described in the Summary Section and the investment strategies described in the Summary Section and below are non-fundamental, which means that they may be changed without shareholder approval upon 60 days’ written notice to shareholders. There is no assurance that each Fund will achieve its investment objectives. Rothschild Asset Management Inc. is the investment adviser to the Funds.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Funds’ investment team follows a bottom-up approach to investing and analyzes a variety of quantitative and fundamental inputs in making our stock decisions. The Fund’s investment team evaluates factors, which may include but are not limited to: cash flow, sales, EBITDA, or book value valuation; sales and profitability trends; capital allocation; and stock price momentum. The Fund seeks to build portfolios which are well diversified, both in number of securities, and by economic sector.

U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation.

U.S. Large-Cap Value Fund

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation.

In normal market conditions, the U.S. Large-Cap Value Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in common stocks and other equity securities of large capitalization U.S. companies. The Fund defines a large-cap company as one whose market capitalization falls within the range of the Russell 1000® Value Index at the time of purchase, invests primarily in equity securities of large-cap value companies as defined by the Russell 1000 Value Index. As of August 31, 2014, the median market cap of the Russell 1000® Value Index was approximately $7.210 billion. The market capitalization of the companies in the Fund’s portfolio and the Russell 1000® Value Index changes over time; the Fund will not automatically sell or cease to purchase stock of a company it already owns just because the company’s market capitalization changes.

The Fund invests in securities which the portfolio management team believes are attractively valued with the potential to exceed investor expectations. The Fund’s investment team analyzes a variety of quantitative and fundamental inputs in making stock decisions, and the team seeks to build portfolios which are well diversified by stock and by economic sector. The Fund will sell securities which no longer meet the investment criteria of the portfolio management team.

U.S. Small-Cap Growth Fund

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation.

In normal market conditions, the U.S. Small-Cap Growth Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in common stocks and other equity securities of small capitalization U.S. companies. The Fund defines small capitalization companies as companies whose market capitalizations fall within the range of the Russell 2000® Growth Index at the time of purchase, and invests primarily in equity securities of small-cap growth companies as defined by the Russell 2000 Growth Index. As of August 31, 2014, the median market cap of the Russell 2000® Growth Index was approximately $0.85 billion. The market capitalization of the companies in the Fund’s portfolio and the Russell 2000® Growth Index changes over time; the Fund will not automatically sell or cease to purchase stock of a company it already owns just because the company’s market capitalization changes.

Temporary or Cash Investments. Under normal market conditions, the Funds will invest according to their principal investment strategies as noted above. However, each Fund may temporarily depart from its principal investment strategy and make short-term investments in cash, cash equivalents, short-term debt securities, exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and money market instruments in response to adverse market, economic or political conditions. As a result, to the extent a Fund makes such “defensive investments,” it may not achieve its investment objective. For longer periods of time, a Fund may hold a substantial cash position. If the market advances during periods when a Fund is holding a large cash position, the Fund may not realize as significant a gain as it would otherwise have, had it been more fully invested. To the extent a Fund invests in a money market fund for its cash position, there will be some duplication of expenses because that Fund will bear its pro rata portion of such money market fund’s advisory fees and operational expenses.

Principal Investment Risks

The principal risks that may adversely affect a Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) or total return have previously been summarized under each Fund’s “Summary Section.” These risks are discussed in more detail below.

General Market Risk. (All Funds) The Funds are subject to general market risk. General market risk is the risk that security market values may fluctuate; sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. These fluctuations may cause a security to be worth less than its cost when originally purchased or less than its worth at an earlier time. General market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, sector of the economy or the market as a whole.

Growth-Style Investing Risk. (U.S. Small-Cap Growth Fund) Different types of stocks tend to shift into and out of favor with stock market investors depending on market and economic conditions. Growth stocks may be more volatile than other stocks because they are generally more sensitive to investor perceptions of the issuing company’s growth of earnings potential. Also, since growth companies usually invest a high portion of earnings in their business, growth stocks may lack the dividends of value stocks that can cushion stock prices in a falling market. The Fund’s performance may at times be better or worse than the performance of funds that focus on other types of stocks or that have a broader investment style.

Table of Contents - Prospectus

Management Risk. (All Funds) Management risk describes a Fund’s ability to meet its investment objective based on the Adviser’s success or failure at implementing the investment strategies of the Funds. The value of your investment is subject to the effectiveness of the Adviser’s research, analysis and selection of portfolio securities, in addition to asset allocation among portfolio securities. If the Adviser’s investment strategies do not produce the expected results, your investment could be diminished or even lost.

New Fund Risk. (All Funds) The Funds are new with no operating history. There can be no assurance that the Funds will grow to or maintain an economically viable size, in which case the Board may determine to liquidate the Funds. The Board can liquidate the Fund without shareholder vote and, while shareholder interests will be the paramount consideration, the timing of any liquidation may not be favorable to certain individual shareholders.

Large Company Risk. (U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund and U.S. Large-Cap Value Fund) Stocks of larger companies may underperform relative to those of small and mid-sized companies. Larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges, such as changes in technology and consumer tastes. Many larger companies may not be able to attain the high growth rate of successful, smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion.

Small and Medium Company Risk. (U.S. Small/Mid-Cap Core Fund, U.S. Small-Cap Core Fund, U.S. Small-Cap Growth Fund and U.S. Small-Cap Value Fund) A Fund may wish to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities of start-up companies or companies with small and medium size market capitalization. Investing in securities of small- and medium-sized companies may involve greater volatility than investing in larger, more established companies because small and medium-sized companies may be subject to more abrupt or erratic share price changes than larger, more established companies. Small companies may have limited product lines, markets or financial resources and their managements may be dependent on a limited number of key individuals. Securities of those companies may have limited market liquidity and their prices may be more volatile.

Portfolio Turnover Risk. (All Funds) A higher portfolio turnover may enhance returns by capturing and holding portfolio gains. However, it also may result in correspondingly greater brokerage commission expenses and may result in the distribution to shareholders of additional dividends and capital gains for tax purposes. These factors may negatively affect a Fund’s performance. A Fund’s portfolio turnover may exceed 100%.

Value Style Investing Risk. (U.S. Large-Cap Value Fund and U.S. Small-Cap Value Fund) A Fund’s investments in value stocks may react differently to issuer, political, market, and economic developments than the general market and investments in other types of stocks. Value stocks tend to be inexpensive relative to their earnings or assets compared to other types of stocks. However, value stocks may continue to be inexpensive for long periods of time and may not ever realize their full value. Also, if the market does not consider a stock to be undervalued, then the value of the stock may decline even if stock prices are generally rising.

SIMILARLY MANAGED ACCOUNT PERFORMANCE

Rothschild U.S. Large-Cap Core Composite

The performance information shown below represents the Rothschild U.S. Large-Cap Core (“LCC”) Composite, a composite which consists of all discretionary, fee-paying, tax-exempt accounts with no client restrictions on trading or stock selection using the Rothschild U.S. Large-Cap Core strategy, a minimum of $2 million in total market value (market fluctuations will not cause removal), and a benchmark of the S&P 500® Index. The LCC Composite was created on January 1, 1990. Results for the full historical period are time-weighted, based on daily cash flow application. The LCC Composite is asset-weighted, using beginning-of-month market value.

The composite performance is provided to illustrate the past performance of the composite of Rothschild’s similarly managed accounts as measured against a broad based market index, and does not represent the historical performance of the U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund. You should not consider this performance data to be an indication of future performance of the U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund.

All returns are presented after the deduction of investment advisory fees, brokerage commissions and execution costs paid by the separate account portfolios of Rothschild without provision for federal or state income taxes. The LCC Composite below does not reflect any custody fee charges, sales loads or placement fees; as such fees are not assessed on these accounts.

The discretionary accounts for which results are reported are not registered mutual funds and generally were not subject to the same types of expenses as the U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund or to the diversification requirements, specific tax restrictions and investment limitations imposed on the U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund by the 1940 Act, or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which, if applicable, may have adversely affected the performance results of the LCC Composite.

Consequently, the performance results for the managed accounts could have been adversely affected if the managed accounts had been regulated as investment companies. In addition, the operating expenses incurred by the managed accounts were lower than the operating expenses of the U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund, and, accordingly, the performance results of the LCC Composite shown below are greater than what the U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund’s performance would have been.

The Large-Cap Core Composite consists of all accounts, other than the Fund, that are managed by the Adviser in a substantially similar manner to that of the U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund except for five accounts ($9 million) that have client restrictions or low market values, one commingled fund ($32 million), nine wrap-fee platforms ($558 million) and one UCITS fund ($117 million).

All returns are presented after the deduction of investment advisory fees, brokerage commissions and execution costs paid by the separate account portfolios of Rothschild without provision for federal or state income taxes. The SCC Composite below does not reflect any custody fee charges, sales loads or placement fees; as such fees are not assessed on these accounts.

The discretionary accounts for which results are reported are not registered mutual funds and generally were not subject to the same types of expenses as the U.S. Small-Cap Core Fund or to the diversification requirements, specific tax restrictions and investment limitations imposed on the U.S. Small-Cap Core Fund by the 1940 Act, or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which, if applicable, may have adversely affected the performance results of the SCC Composite.

Consequently, the performance results for the managed accounts could have been adversely affected if the managed accounts had been regulated as investment companies. In addition, the operating expenses incurred by the managed accounts were lower than the operating expenses of the U.S. Small-Cap Core Fund, and, accordingly, the performance results of the SCC Composite shown below are greater than what the U.S. Small-Cap Core Fund’s performance would have been.

The performance calculation methods used for separate account composites are different from the SEC performance standards applied to investment companies. Investors should also be aware that the use of a methodology different from that used above to calculate performance of the U.S. Small-Cap Core Fund could result in different performance data.

Rothschild U.S. Small-Cap Growth Composite

The performance information shown below represents the Rothschild U.S. Small-Cap Growth (“SCG”) Composite consists of one discretionary, tax-exempt account with no client restrictions on trading or stock selection using the Rothschild U.S. Small-Cap Growth strategy, with a benchmark of the Russell 2000® Growth Index. The SCG Composite was created on October 1, 2007, and funded with money from Rothschild Asset Management Inc. This account, funded by Rothschild U.S., does not pay fees. Results for the full historical period are time-weighted, based on daily cash flow application. The SCG Composite is asset-weighted, using beginning-of-month market value.

The composite performance is provided to illustrate the past performance of the composite of Rothschild’s similarly managed account as measured against a broad based market index, and does not represent the historical performance of the U.S. Small-Cap Growth Fund. You should not consider this performance data to be an indication of future performance of the U.S. Small-Cap Growth Fund.

The performance does not reflect the deduction of investment advisory fees actually charged to the account in the SCG Composite. Rather, the performance presented reflects the deduction of a model advisory fee. The model advisory fee is 0.85% per annum, which fee is the same as that charged by the Fund, and higher than the actual fee charged to the SCG Composite. The net of fee returns calculated for the composite were created by deducting the monthly amount of the model annual fee from actual gross returns of the client account in the composite. Except for custody and trust-related costs, the performance reflects the deduction of all other advisory fees and expenses, including brokerage commissions and execution costs paid by the client account in the composite without provision for federal or state income taxes. The SCG Composite below does not reflect any sales loads or placement fees, as such fees were not assessed on the account.

The discretionary account for which results are reported is not a registered mutual fund and generally was not subject to the same types of expenses as the U.S. Small-Cap Growth Fund or to the diversification requirements, specific tax restrictions and investment limitations imposed on the U.S. Small-Cap Growth Fund by the 1940 Act, or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which, if applicable, may have adversely affected the performance results of the SCG Composite.

Investor Class

Institutional Class

Eligible Investors

Offered to individual investors through mutual fund supermarkets or other platforms offered by broker-dealers, 401(k) plans, banks, or trust companies that have entered into a selling agreement with the Fund’s distributor, or directly through the distributor.

Institutional Class shares can be purchased directly through the distributor or other financial institutions, which may charge transaction fees with respect to your purchase.

Special Instructions for Institutional Class Shares

The Funds offer Institutional Class shares primarily for direct investment by investors such as pension and profit-sharing plans, employee benefit trusts, endowments, foundations and corporations. Institutional Class shares may also be offered through Financial Intermediaries (defined below) that charge their customers transaction or other distribution or service fees with respect to their customers’ investments in the Funds. If you are purchasing shares through a Financial Intermediary, you must follow the procedures established by your Financial Intermediary. Your Financial Intermediary is responsible for sending your purchase order and wiring payment to the Transfer Agent. Your Financial Intermediary holds the shares in your name and receives all confirmations of purchases and sales. Financial Intermediaries placing orders for themselves or on behalf of their customers should call the Funds toll free at [ ], or follow the instructions under “Purchase By Mail,” “Purchase By Telephone” and “Purchase By Wire.”

As indicated in the table above, the minimum initial investment for Institutional Class shares may be waived or reduced by the Adviser at any time.

Pricing of Fund Shares

Shares of a Fund are sold at net asset value per share (“NAV”). The NAV is determined by dividing the value of a Fund’s securities, cash and other assets, minus all liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding (assets – liabilities / number of shares = NAV). The NAV takes into account the expenses and fees of a Fund, including management, administration and other fees, which are accrued daily. A Fund’s share price is calculated as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) on each day that the NYSE is open for business.

All shareholder transaction orders received in good form (as described below under “How to Purchase Shares”) by U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, the Funds’ transfer agent (“Transfer Agent”), or an authorized financial intermediary by the close of regular trading on the NYSE, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time will be processed at that day’s NAV. Transaction orders received after the close of regular trading on the NYSE, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time will receive the next day’s NAV. A Fund’s NAV, however, may be calculated earlier if trading on the NYSE is restricted or as permitted by the SEC. The Funds do not determine the NAV of their shares on any day when the NYSE is not open for trading, such as weekends and certain national holidays as disclosed in the SAI (even if there is sufficient trading in their portfolio securities on such days to materially affect the NAV per share). In certain cases, fair value determinations may be made as described below under procedures as adopted by the Board.

Fair Value Pricing

Occasionally, reliable market quotations are not readily available or there may be events affecting the value of foreign securities or other securities held by a Fund that occur when regular trading on foreign exchanges is closed, but before trading on the NYSE is closed. Fair value determinations are then made in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board. Generally, the fair value of a portfolio security or other asset shall be the amount that the owner of the security or asset might reasonably expect to receive upon its current sale.

Table of Contents - Prospectus

Attempts to determine the fair value of securities introduce an element of subjectivity to the pricing of securities. As a result, the price of a security determined through fair valuation techniques may differ from the price quoted or published by other sources and may not accurately reflect the market value of the security when trading resumes. If a reliable market quotation becomes available for a security formerly valued through fair valuation techniques, a Fund would compare the new market quotation to the fair value price to evaluate the effectiveness of its fair valuation procedures. If any significant discrepancies are found, a Fund may adjust its fair valuation procedures.

How to Purchase Shares

To open an account for any of the Funds, you must make a minimum initial investment as indicated below.

Minimum Investments

	To Open A New Account	To Add to An Existing Account
Institutional Class	$100,000	$500
Investor Class
Regular Accounts	$2,500	$100
Automatic Investment Plan	$2,500	$50
Retirement, Tax-Deferred and UGMA/UTMA Accounts	$2,500	$50

Shares are purchased at the NAV next determined after the Transfer Agent receives your order in proper form. You may purchase shares by completing an account application. Your order will not be accepted until the completed account application is received by the Transfer Agent. Each initial purchase must be preceded by or accompanied by a completed account application. All investments must be made in U.S. dollars drawn on a domestic financial institution. The Funds will not accept payment in cash, money orders or cashier’s checks, unless the cashier’s check is in excess of $10,000. In addition, to prevent check fraud, the Funds will not accept third party checks, U.S. Treasury checks, credit card checks, traveler’s checks or starter checks for the purchase of Fund shares. The Funds are unable to accept post-dated checks, post-dated online bill pay checks or any conditional order or payment. If your payment is returned for any reason, a $25 fee will be assessed against your account. You will also be responsible for any losses suffered by the Funds as a result. The Funds do not issue share certificates. The Funds reserve the right to reject any purchase in whole or in part. These minimums can be changed or waived by the Adviser at any time.

Shares of the Funds have not been registered for sale outside of the United States. The Funds generally do not sell shares to investors residing outside the United States, even if they are United States citizens or lawful permanent residents, except to investors with United States military APO or FPO addresses. If a shareholder no longer resides in the United States, he or she may be subject to additional annual service fees.

USA PATRIOT ACT

The USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 requires financial institutions, including the Funds, to adopt certain policies and programs to prevent money laundering activities, including procedures to verify the identity of customers opening new accounts. When completing a new account application, you will be required to supply the Funds your full name, date of birth, social security number and permanent street address to assist the Funds in verifying your identity. Mailing addresses containing only a P.O. Box will not be accepted. Until such verification is made, the Funds may temporarily limit additional share purchases. In addition, the Funds may limit additional share purchases or close an account if they are unable to verify a shareholder’s identity. As required by law, the Funds may employ various procedures, such as comparing the information to fraud databases or requesting additional information or documentation from you, to ensure that the information supplied by you is correct.

Table of Contents - Prospectus

If a Fund does not have a reasonable belief of the identity of a prospective shareholder, the account application will be rejected or the individual/entity will not be allowed to perform a transaction on the account until such information is received. The Funds may also reserve the right to close the account within five business days if clarifying information/documentation is not received.

By Mail. Initial Investment. If you are making an initial investment in the Funds, and wish to purchase shares by mail, simply complete and sign the enclosed account application and mail it with a check made payable to “Rothschild Funds, [Name of Fund]” to:

Regular Mail Rothschild Funds c/o U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC P.O. Box 701 Milwaukee, WI 53201-0701	Overnight Delivery Rothschild Funds c/o U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC 615 E. Michigan Street, Third Floor Milwaukee, WI 53202

NOTE: The Funds do not consider the U.S. Postal Service or other independent delivery services to be their agents. Therefore, deposit in the mail or with such services, or receipt at the Transfer Agent’s post office box, of purchase orders or redemption requests does not constitute receipt by the Transfer Agent.

Subsequent Investment. If you are making a subsequent purchase, detach the stub that is attached to the account statement you will receive after each transaction and mail it with a check made payable to “Rothschild Funds, [Name of Fund]” in the envelope provided with your statement or to the address noted above. You should write your account number on the check. If you do not have the stub from an investment confirmation, include your name, address and account number on a separate piece of paper.

By Wire. Initial Investment. If you are making your initial investment in the Funds, before you wire funds, please call the Transfer Agent at [ ] to make arrangements with a telephone service representative to submit your completed account application via mail, overnight delivery or facsimile. Upon receipt of your completed account application, the Transfer Agent will establish an account for you and a service representative will contact you within 24 hours to provide you with an account number and wiring instructions.

Once your account has been established, you may instruct your bank to initiate the wire using the instructions you were given. Prior to sending the wire, please call the Transfer Agent at [ ] to advise of your wire and to ensure proper credit upon receipt. Your bank must include the name of the Fund you are purchasing, your name and account number so that your wire can be correctly applied.

Subsequent Investment. If you are making a subsequent purchase, your bank should wire funds as indicated below. Before each wire purchase, please call the Transfer Agent at [ ] to advise of your intent to wire funds. This will ensure prompt and accurate credit upon receipt of your wire. It is essential that your bank include complete information about your account in all wire instructions. Your bank may charge you a fee for sending a wire to the Fund.

Your bank should transmit funds by wire to:

	U.S. Bank National Association
	777 East Wisconsin Avenue
	Milwaukee, WI 53202
	ABA Routing #075000022
	Credit: U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC
	DDA #112-952-137
	Further Credit:	Rothschild Funds, [Name of Fund]
		(shareholder name and account number)

Wired funds must be received prior to the close of trading on the NYSE, generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, to be eligible for same day pricing. Neither the Funds nor U.S. Bank N.A, the Funds’ custodian, is responsible for the consequences of delays resulting from the banking or Federal Reserve wire system or from incomplete wiring instructions. If you have questions about how to invest by wire, you may call the Transfer Agent at [ ].

By Telephone. Subsequent Investment. After your account has been established for fifteen (15) calendar days, investors may purchase additional shares of a Fund, by calling the Transfer Agent at [ ]. You are automatically granted telephone purchase privileges unless you decline this privilege on the account application. Telephone orders will be accepted via electronic funds transfer from your bank account through the Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) network. You must have banking information established on your account prior to making a purchase. Each telephone purchase order must be a minimum of $100. Your shares will be purchased at the NAV calculated on the day of your purchase order, provided that your order is received prior to the close of trading on the NYSE, generally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time. For security reasons, requests by telephone may be recorded.

Through the Internet. Subsequent Investment. After your account is established, you may set up a PIN number by visiting www.[ ].com and clicking on the mutual funds login link. This will enable you to purchase shares by having the purchase amount deducted from the bank account on record with the Transfer Agent by electronic funds transfer via the ACH network. Please make sure that your fund account is set up with bank account instructions and that your bank is an ACH member. You will have the option of setting up an Internet account unless you decline the telephone purchase privileges on the account application.

Through a Financial Intermediary. You may buy shares of a Fund through certain brokers and their agents that have made arrangements with the Funds and are authorized to buy and sell shares of the Funds (collectively, “Financial Intermediaries”). When you place your order with such Financial Intermediaries, your order is treated as if you had placed it directly with the Transfer Agent, and you will pay or receive the next NAV calculated by a Fund. The Financial Intermediary holds your shares in an omnibus account in the Financial Intermediary’s name, and the Financial Intermediary maintains your individual ownership records. A Fund may pay the Financial Intermediary for maintaining these records as well as providing other shareholder services. Financial intermediaries may charge fees for the services they provide to you in connection with processing your transaction order or maintaining your account with them. Financial Intermediaries are responsible for processing your order correctly and promptly with each Fund, forwarding payment promptly, keeping you advised regarding the status of your individual account, confirming your transactions and ensuring that you receive copies of the Funds’ prospectus. If you transmit your order to these Financial Intermediaries before the close of regular trading on the NYSE (generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) on a day that the NYSE is open for business, your order will be priced at a Fund’s NAV next computed after it is received by the Financial Intermediary. Investors should check with their Financial Intermediary to determine if it is subject to these arrangements.

Automatic Investment Plan. For your convenience, the Funds offer an Automatic Investment Plan (“AIP”). Under the AIP, after your initial minimum investment, you authorize a Fund to withdraw automatically from your personal checking account, on a monthly or quarterly basis, the amount that you wish to invest, with a minimum investment of $100. In order to participate in the AIP, your bank or financial institution must be a member of the ACH network. If you wish to enroll in the AIP, please complete the “Automatic Investment Plan” section in the account application or call the Transfer Agent at [ ]. A Fund may terminate or modify this privilege at any time. You may terminate your participation in the AIP at any time by notifying the Transfer Agent at least five days prior to the effective date of the next transaction. A fee will be charged if your bank does not honor the AIP draft for any reason.

Table of Contents - Prospectus

The AIP is a method of using dollar cost averaging as an investment strategy that involves investing a fixed amount of money at regular time intervals. However, a program of regular investment cannot ensure a profit or protect against a loss as a result of declining markets. By continually investing the same amount, you will be purchasing more shares when the price is low and fewer shares when the price is high. Please call the Transfer Agent at [ ] for additional information regarding the Funds’ AIP.

Retirement Plans. You may invest in the Funds by establishing a tax-sheltered IRA. The Funds each offer Traditional, Roth, SIMPLE and SEP-IRAs. For details concerning retirement accounts (including service fees), please call the Transfer Agent at [ ]. If you wish to open a Section 403(b) or other retirement plan, please contact your plan administrator.

How to Sell Shares

In general, orders to sell or “redeem” your Fund shares may be placed either directly with the Transfer Agent or with your Financial Intermediary. You may redeem part or all of your shares at the next determined NAV after a Fund receives your order. You should request your redemption prior to the close of the NYSE, generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, to obtain that day’s closing NAV. Redemption requests received after the close of the NYSE will be treated as though received on the next business day.

By Mail. You may redeem your shares by simply sending a written request to the Funds or the Transfer Agent. Please provide the name of the Fund, your account number and state the number of shares or dollar amount you would like redeemed. The letter should be signed by all of the shareholders whose names appear in the account registration and should include signature guarantee(s), if applicable. Redemption requests will not become effective until all documents have been received in good form by the Funds or the Transfer Agent. Additional documents are required for certain types of shareholders, such as corporations, partnerships, executors, trustees, administrators, or guardians (i.e., corporate resolutions, or trust documents indicating proper authorization). Shareholders should contact the Funds or the Transfer Agent for further information concerning documentation required for redemption of Fund shares.

Shareholders who have an IRA or other retirement plan must indicate on their redemption request whether to withhold federal income tax. Redemption requests failing to indicate an election not to have tax withheld will generally be subject to a 10% withholding tax.

Redemption requests in writing should be sent to:

Regular Mail Rothschild Funds c/o U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC P.O. Box 701 Milwaukee, WI 53201-0701	Overnight Delivery Rothschild Funds c/o U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC 615 E. Michigan Street, Third Floor Milwaukee, WI 53202

NOTE: The Funds do not consider the U.S. Postal Service or other independent delivery services to be their agents. Therefore, deposit in the mail or with such services, or receipt at the Transfer Agent’s post office box, of purchase orders or redemption requests does not constitute receipt by the Transfer Agent.

Redemption proceeds will be sent on the next business day by check to the address that appears on the Transfer Agent’s records, by electronic funds transfer or by federal wire.

Table of Contents - Prospectus

By Telephone or Internet. Unless you decline the “Telephone Redemption Privileges” portion of the account application, you can also redeem shares by calling the Transfer Agent at [ ] or through the Internet before the close of trading on the NYSE, by 4:00 p.m., Eastern time. You may redeem your shares and have proceeds sent by check to your address of record, by electronic funds transfer via the ACH network to a properly authorized bank account or sent by federal wire to your designated bank account. There is no charge to have proceeds sent by electronic funds transfer. However, proceeds usually arrive at your bank two days after we process your redemption. In the case of complete redemptions, or partial share-specific redemptions, a wire fee of $15.00 will be deducted from your redemption proceeds. In the case of partial dollar-specific redemptions, a wire fee of $15.00 will be deducted from the remaining account balance. Telephone redemptions cannot be made if you notify the Transfer Agent of a change of address within 15 calendar days before the redemption request, you wish to redeem shares in excess of $100,000 or you have a retirement account. During periods of high market activity, you may encounter higher than usual wait times. Please allow sufficient time to ensure that you will be able to complete your telephone transaction prior to market close. You may make your redemption request in writing.

In order to redeem your shares through the Internet, your account number and PIN number are required. Redemption proceeds will only be sent by check to a shareholder’s address of record or via electronic funds transfer through the ACH network to the bank account shown on the Transfer Agent’s records.

Prior to executing instructions received to redeem shares by telephone, the Funds and the Transfer Agent will use reasonable procedures to confirm that the telephone instructions are genuine. These procedures may include recording the telephone call and asking the caller for a form of personal identification. If the Funds and the Transfer Agent follow these procedures, they will not be liable for any loss, expense or cost arising out of any telephone redemption request that is reasonably believed to be genuine. This includes any fraudulent or unauthorized request. If an account has more than one owner or authorized person, the Fund will accept telephone instructions from any one owner or authorized person. Once a telephone or Internet transaction has been placed, it cannot be canceled or modified. The Funds may terminate or modify these privileges at any time upon at least 60 days’ written notice to shareholders.

Through a Financial Intermediary. You may redeem Fund shares through your Financial Intermediary. Redemptions made through a Financial Intermediary may be subject to procedures established by that institution. Your Financial Intermediary is responsible for sending your order to a Fund and for crediting your account with the proceeds. Orders will be processed at the NAV next effective after receipt of the order by your Financial Intermediary. Please keep in mind that your Financial Intermediary may charge additional fees for its services.

Systematic Withdrawal Program

As another convenience, you may redeem your Fund shares through the Systematic Withdrawal Program (“SWP”). Under the SWP, shareholders or their Financial Intermediaries may request that a predetermined amount be sent to them on a monthly or quarterly basis. To participate in the SWP, your account must have Fund shares with a value of at least $5,000, and the minimum amount that may be withdrawn each month or quarter is $100. If you elect this method of redemption, a Fund will send a check directly to your address of record, or will send the payment directly to your bank account via electronic funds transfer through the ACH network. For payment through the ACH network, your bank must be an ACH member and your bank account information must be maintained on your Fund account. The SWP may be terminated or modified by the Funds at any time. Any shareholder request to change or terminate a SWP should be communicated in writing or by telephone to the Transfer Agent no later than five business days prior to the next scheduled withdrawal.

A withdrawal under the SWP involves a redemption of Fund shares, and may result in a gain or loss for federal income tax purposes. In addition, if the amount withdrawn exceeds the dividends credited to your account, the account ultimately may be depleted. For information on establishing a SWP, please call the Transfer Agent at [ ].

Exchange Privilege

Shareholders of record, including financial institutions and intermediaries, may exchange shares of a Fund for shares of the other Fund by calling the Transfer Agent at [ ] on any day the NYSE is open. This exchange privilege may be terminated or modified by a Fund at any time upon a 60-day written notice to shareholders. Internet exchange privileges automatically apply to each shareholder who holds telephone exchange privileges. Exchanges are generally made only between identically registered accounts unless a shareholder sends written instructions with a signature guarantee requesting otherwise. Exercising the exchange privilege consists of two transactions: a sale of shares in one Fund and the purchase of shares in another, as a result, an exchange is a taxable transaction on which short-term or long-term capital gain or loss generally will be recognized. An exchange request received prior to the close of the NYSE will be made at that day’s closing NAV. The Funds reserve the right to refuse any exchange that would not be in the best interests of a Fund or its shareholders and could adversely affect the Fund or its operations. This includes those from any individual or group who, in a Fund’s view, is likely to engage in, or has a history of, excessive trading (usually defined as more than four transactions out of a Fund within a calendar year).

Because excessive trading can hurt a Fund’s performance and shareholders, the Funds reserve the right to, without notice, temporarily or permanently limit the number of exchanges you may make or to otherwise prohibit or restrict any exchange that would not be, in the judgment of the Funds, in the best interest of a Fund or its shareholders.

ACCOUNT AND TRANSACTION POLICIES

Payment of Redemption Proceeds

Proceeds will generally be sent no later than seven calendar days after a Fund receives your redemption request.

Before selling recently purchased shares, please note that if the Transfer Agent has not yet collected payment for the shares you are selling, it may delay sending the proceeds until the payment is collected, which may take up to 15 calendar days from the purchase date. Furthermore, there are certain times when you may be unable to sell a Fund’s shares or receive proceeds. Specifically, a Fund may suspend the right to redeem shares or postpone the date of payment upon redemption for more than three business days (1) for any period during which the NYSE is closed (other than customary weekend or holiday closings) or trading on the NYSE is restricted; (2) for any period during which an emergency exists as a result of which disposal by the Fund of securities owned by it is not reasonably practicable or it is not reasonably practicable for the Fund to fairly determine the value of its net assets; or (3) for such other periods as the SEC may permit for the protection of the Fund’s shareholders.

Redemption requests will be sent to the address of record. A Fund will not be responsible for interest lost on redemption amounts due to lost or misdirected mail. If the proceeds of redemption are requested to be sent to an address other than the address of record, or if the address of record has been changed within 15 days of the redemption request, the request must be in writing with your signature guaranteed.

Low Balance Accounts

A Fund may redeem the shares in your account if the value of your account is less than $1,500 as a result of redemptions you have made. This does not apply to Uniform Gifts to Minors Act or Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (“UGMA/UTMA”) accounts or retirement plan accounts. You will be notified that the value of your account is less than $1,500 before a Fund makes an involuntary redemption. You will then have 30 days in which to make an additional investment to bring the value of your account to at least $1,500 before a Fund takes any action.

Table of Contents - Prospectus

Redemption In-Kind

Each Fund reserves the right, at its discretion, to pay redemption proceeds to you in whole or in part by a distribution of securities from a Fund’s portfolio (a “redemption in-kind”). It is not expected that the Funds would do so except in unusual circumstances. If a Fund pays your redemption proceeds by a distribution of securities, you could incur brokerage or other charges in converting the securities to cash and will bear any market risks associated with such securities until they are converted into cash. A redemption in-kind is a taxable event for you.

Signature Guarantees

A signature guarantee may be required for certain redemption requests. A signature guarantee assures that your signature is genuine and protects you from unauthorized account redemptions. Signature guarantees will generally be accepted from domestic banks, brokers, dealers, credit unions, national securities exchanges, registered securities associations, clearing agencies and savings associations, as well as from participants in the New York Stock Exchange Medallion Signature Program and the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Stamp (“STAMP”). A notary public is not an acceptable signature guarantor.

A signature guarantee, from either a Medallion program member or a non-Medallion program member, is required to redeem shares in the following situations:

·	Any request to change ownership on your account;

·	When redemption proceeds are payable or sent to any person, address or bank account not on record;

·	If a change of address was received by the Transfer Agent within 15 days of the redemption request; and

·	For all redemptions in excess of $100,000 from any shareholder account.

In addition to the situations described above, the Fund(s) and/or the Transfer Agent reserve the right to require a signature guarantee in other instances based on the circumstances. The Adviser also reserves the right to waive the signature guarantee requirement based upon the circumstances.

Non-financial transactions, including establishing or modifying certain services on an account, may require a signature guarantee, signature verification from a Signature Verification Program member, or other acceptable form of authentication from a financial institution source.

Householding

In an effort to conserve resources, the Funds intend to reduce the number of duplicate Prospectuses and annual and semi-annual reports you receive by sending only one copy of each to addresses where we reasonably believe two or more accounts are from the same household or entity. If you would like to discontinue householding for your accounts, please call the Transfer Agent toll-free at [ ] to request individual copies of these documents. We will begin sending individual copies 30 days after receiving your request to stop householding. This policy does not apply to account statements.

Unclaimed Property

Your mutual fund account may be transferred to your state of residence if no activity occurs within your account during the “inactivity period” specified in your state’s abandoned property laws. Please proactively contact the Transfer Agent toll-free at [ ] at least annually to ensure your account remains in active status.

Table of Contents - Prospectus

Redemption Fee

The Funds are intended for long-term investors. Short-term “market-timers” that engage in frequent purchases and redemptions can disrupt a Fund’s investment program and create additional transaction costs that are borne by all of the Fund’s shareholders. For these reasons, each Fund will assess a 1.00% fee on the redemption of Fund shares held for 30 calendar days or less. The Funds use the “first in first out” (“FIFO”) method to determine the holding period; this means that if you purchase shares on different days, the shares you held longest will be redeemed first for purposes of determining whether the short-term trading fee applies. The redemption fee is deducted from your proceeds and is retained by the Funds for the benefit of their long-term shareholders. This fee does not apply to (1) shares purchased through reinvested dividends or capital gains; or (2) the involuntary redemption of low balance accounts. Each Fund’s redemption fee will also be waived on sales of Fund shares made in connection with non-discretionary portfolio rebalancing associated with certain wrap accounts and certain retirement plans. The Funds reserve the right to change the terms and amount of this fee upon at least 60 days’ notice to shareholders.

Although each Fund has the goal of applying this redemption fee to most redemptions of shares held for less than 30 calendar days, a Fund may not always be able to track short-term trading affected through Financial Intermediaries in non-disclosed or omnibus accounts. While each Fund has entered into information sharing agreements with such Financial Intermediaries as described under “Tools to Combat Frequent Transactions” which contractually require such Financial Intermediaries to provide a Fund with information relating to its customers investing in a Fund through non-disclosed or omnibus accounts, the Fund cannot guarantee the accuracy of the information provided to them from Financial Intermediaries and may not always be able to track short-term trading effected through these Financial Intermediaries. In addition, because the Funds are required to rely on information provided by the Financial Intermediary as to the applicable redemption fee, the Funds cannot ensure that the Financial Intermediary is always imposing such fee on the underlying shareholder in accordance with the Funds’ policies.

TOOLS TO COMBAT FREQUENT TRANSACTIONS

The Funds are intended for long-term investors. Short-term “market-timers” who engage in frequent transactions and redemptions may disrupt a Fund’s investment program and create additional transaction costs that are borne by all shareholders. The Board has adopted a policy regarding excessive trading. The Fund discourages excessive, short-term trading and other abusive trading practices. The Funds may use a variety of techniques to detect and discourage abusive trading practices. These steps may include, among other things, redemption fees, monitoring trading activity and using fair value pricing, under procedures as adopted by the Board, when the Advisers determine current market prices are not readily available. As approved by the Board, these techniques may change from time to time as determined by the Funds in their sole discretion.

In an effort to discourage abusive trading practices and minimize harm to each Fund and its shareholders, the Funds reserve the right, in their sole discretion, to reject any purchase order or exchange request, in whole or in part, for any reason (including, without limitation, purchases by persons whose trading activity in Fund shares is believed by the Adviser to be harmful to the Funds) and without prior notice. Each Fund may decide to restrict purchase and sale activity in its shares based on various factors, including whether frequent purchase and sale activity will disrupt portfolio management strategies and adversely affect each Fund’s performance. Although these efforts are designed to discourage abusive trading practices, these tools cannot eliminate the possibility that such activity will occur. The Funds seek to exercise their judgment in implementing these tools to the best of their ability in a manner that they believe is consistent with shareholder interests. Except as noted in the Prospectus, the Funds apply all restrictions uniformly in all applicable cases.

Due to the complexity and subjectivity involved in identifying abusive trading activity and the volume of shareholder transactions the Funds handle, there can be no assurance that a Fund’s efforts will identify all trades or trading practices that may be considered abusive. In particular, since each Fund receives purchase and sale orders through Financial Intermediaries that use group or omnibus accounts, the Funds cannot always detect frequent trading. However, the Funds will work with Financial Intermediaries as necessary to discourage shareholders from engaging in abusive trading practices and to impose restrictions on excessive trades. In this regard, each Fund has entered into information sharing agreements with Financial Intermediaries pursuant to which these intermediaries are required to provide to each Fund, at a Fund’s request, certain information relating to its customers investing in the Funds through non-disclosed or omnibus accounts. Each Fund will use this information to attempt to identify abusive trading practices. Financial Intermediaries are contractually required to follow any instructions from a Fund to restrict or prohibit future purchases from shareholders that are found to have engaged in abusive trading in violation of a Fund’s policies. However, the Funds cannot guarantee the accuracy of the information provided to them from Financial Intermediaries and cannot ensure that they will always be able to detect abusive trading practices that occur through non-disclosed and omnibus accounts. As a consequence, a Fund’s ability to monitor and discourage abusive trading practices in omnibus accounts may be limited.

SHAREHOLDER SERVICING FEES AND OTHER PAYMENTS

The Funds have adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan on behalf of the Investor Class. Under the Shareholder Servicing Plan, the Investor Class is authorized to pay the Adviser an annual shareholder servicing fee of up to 0.10% of the Investor Class’s average daily net assets. The Adviser uses this fee to finance certain activities related to servicing and maintaining shareholder accounts.

In addition to paying fees under the Plan, the Fund may pay service fees to Financial Intermediaries such as banks, broker-dealers, financial advisors or other financial institutions, including affiliates of the Adviser, 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 Adviser or distributor, out of its own resources, and without additional cost to a Fund or its shareholders, may provide additional cash payments or non-cash compensation to Financial Intermediaries who sell shares of the Fund, including affiliates of the Adviser. Such payments and compensation are in addition to the service fees paid by the Funds. These additional cash payments are generally made to Financial Intermediaries that provide shareholder servicing, marketing support and/or access to sales meetings, sales representatives and management representatives of the Financial Intermediary. Cash compensation may also be paid to Financial Intermediaries for inclusion of a Fund on a sales list, including a preferred or select sales list, in other sales programs or as an expense reimbursement in cases where the Financial Intermediary provides shareholder services to a Fund’s shareholders. The Adviser or distributor may also pay cash compensation in the form of finder’s fees that vary depending on the dollar amount of the shares sold.

RULE 12B-1 AND OTHER SERVICE FEES

Each Fund’s Investor Class shares have adopted a Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Plan, each Fund is authorized to pay the distributor a fee for the sale and distribution of a Fund’s shares and services it provides to shareholders. The maximum amount of the fee authorized is 0.25% of a Fund’s average daily net assets annually. Because these fees are paid out of a Fund’s assets on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment in a Fund’s shares and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.

In addition to paying fees under the Plan, each Fund may pay service fees to Financial Intermediaries such as banks, broker-dealers, financial advisors or other financial institutions, including affiliates of the Advisor, 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 Adviser or distributor, out of its own resources, and without additional cost to a Fund or its shareholders, may provide additional cash payments or non-cash compensation to Financial Intermediaries who sell shares of a Fund, including affiliates of the Advisor. Such payments and compensation are in addition to the sales charges (including Rule 12b-1 fees) and service fees paid by a Fund. These additional cash payments are generally made to Financial Intermediaries that provide shareholder servicing, marketing support and/or access to sales meetings, sales representatives and management representatives of the Financial Intermediary. Cash compensation may also be paid to Financial Intermediaries for inclusion of a Fund on a sales list, including a preferred or select sales list, in other sales programs or as an expense reimbursement in cases where the Financial Intermediary provides shareholder services to a Fund’s shareholders. The Adviser or distributor may also pay cash compensation in the form of finder’s fees that vary depending on the dollar amount of the shares sold.

Table of Contents - Prospectus

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net profits from the sale of securities are distributed at least annually. Net investment income generally consists of interest income and dividends received on investments, less expenses.

The Funds will make distributions of dividends and capital gains, if any, at least annually, typically in December. A Fund may make another distribution of any additional undistributed capital gains earned during the 12-month period ended October 31 in December. The Funds may make an additional payment of dividends or distributions if it deems it desirable at another time during any year.

All distributions will be reinvested in additional Fund shares unless you choose one of the following options: (1) receive dividends in cash while reinvesting capital gain distributions in additional Fund shares; or (2) receive all distributions in cash. Distributions will be taxable whether received in cash or reinvested in additional shares. If you wish to change your distribution option, write to the Transfer Agent in advance of the payment date for the distribution, or call the Transfer Agent at [ ]. If you elect to receive distributions and/or capital gains paid in cash, and the U.S. Postal Service cannot deliver your check or if a check remains uncashed for six months, the Funds reserve the right to reinvest the distribution check in your account at the Funds’ then current NAV and to reinvest all subsequent distributions. A dividend or capital gain distribution paid on shares purchased shortly before that dividend or capital gain distribution was declared will be subject to income taxes.

TAX CONSEQUENCES

Each Fund has elected and intends to continue to qualify to be taxed as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As RICs, the Funds will not be subject to federal income tax if they distribute their income as required by the tax law and satisfy certain other requirements that are described in the SAI. One of these requirements is the asset diversification test. Under this test, there is a requirement that, at the end of each quarter of each taxable year, not more than 25% of the value of the Fund’s total assets be invested in the securities of one or more qualified publicly traded partnerships, which include qualified MLPs. If the Fund’s qualified MLP investments exceed this 25% limitation, then the Fund would not satisfy the diversification requirements and could fail to qualify as a RIC unless a cure provision applies. If, in any year, the Fund fails to qualify as a RIC, the Fund would be taxed as an ordinary corporation.

The Funds intend to make distributions of ordinary income and capital gains. In general, Fund distributions are taxable to you (unless your investment is through an unleveraged qualified retirement plan), as either ordinary income or capital gains. Dividends are taxable to you as ordinary income. Fund distributions of short-term capital gains are taxable to you as ordinary income. Fund distributions of long-term capital gains are taxable as long-term capital gains regardless of how long you have held your Fund shares assuming you hold your shares as capital assets. A portion of the ordinary income dividends paid to you by the Funds may be qualified dividends currently eligible for taxation at long-term capital gain rates. You will be taxed in the same manner whether you receive your dividends and capital gain distributions in cash or reinvest them in additional Fund shares.

Table of Contents - Prospectus

Each year, you will receive a statement that shows the tax status of distributions you received the previous year. Distributions declared in October, November or December, but paid in the following January to shareholders of record on a specified date in such a month, are taxable as if they were paid in the prior December.

If you sell or exchange your Fund shares, it is considered a taxable event for you. Depending on the purchase price and the sale price of the shares you exchange or sell, you may have a gain or a loss on the transaction. You are responsible for any tax liabilities generated by your transaction.

By law, the Funds must withhold a percentage (currently 28%) of your taxable distributions and redemption proceeds if you do not provide your correct social security or taxpayer identification number and certify that you are not subject to backup withholding, or if the Internal Revenue Service instructs the Funds to do so.

Non-corporate shareholders whose adjusted gross income for a year exceeds $200,000 for single filers or $250,000 for married joint filers generally are subject to a Medicare tax of 3.8% on net investment income, which includes dividends and capital gains from the Fund.

Additional information related to the tax consequences of an investment in the Funds can be found in the Statement of Additional Information. Because everyone’s tax situation is unique, always consult your tax professional about federal, state, local or foreign tax consequences of an investment in the Funds.

THE TRUST

The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust organized on February 24, 1987 and is registered with the SEC as an open-end management investment company. Prior to May 1991, the Trust was known as the Avondale Investment Trust. The Trust’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the “Declaration of Trust”) permits the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest, without par value, which may be issued in any number of series. The Trust consists of various series that represent separate investment portfolios. The Board may from time to time issue other series, the assets and liabilities of which will be separate and distinct from any other series. This SAI relates only to the Funds.

The shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust could, under certain circumstances, be held personally liable as partners for its obligations. However, the Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of shareholder liability for acts or obligations of the Trust.

The Declaration of Trust also provides for indemnification and reimbursement of expenses out of the Funds’ assets for any shareholder held personally liable for obligations of the Funds or the Trust. The Declaration of Trust provides that the Trust shall, upon request, assume the defense of any claim made against any shareholder for any act or obligation of the Funds or the Trust and satisfy any judgment thereon. All such rights are limited to the assets of the Funds. The Declaration of Trust further provides that the Trust may maintain appropriate insurance (for example, fidelity bonding and errors and omissions insurance) for the protection of the Trust, its shareholders, trustees, officers, employees and agents to cover possible tort and other liabilities. However, the activities of the Trust as an investment company would not likely give rise to liabilities in excess of the Trust’s total assets. Thus, the risk of a shareholder incurring financial loss on account of shareholder liability is limited to circumstances in which both inadequate insurance exists and the Funds themselves are unable to meet their obligations.

The Funds have not commenced operations as of the date of this SAI.

The Funds do not hold themselves out as related to any other series within the Trust for purposes of investment and investor services, nor do they share the same investment adviser with any other series of the Trust. The Funds’ Prospectus and this SAI are a part of the Trust’s Registration Statement filed with the SEC. Copies of the Trust’s complete Registration Statement may be obtained from the SEC upon payment of the prescribed fee or may be accessed free of charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

INVESTMENT POLICIES AND RISKS

The Funds are diversified, which means that for 75% of each Fund’s total assets, the Fund may not invest more than 5% of its total assets in securities of a single issuer or hold more than 10% of the outstanding voting shares of a single issuer. Under applicable federal securities laws, the diversification of a mutual fund’s holdings is measured at the time a fund purchases a security. However, if a fund purchases a security and holds it for a period of time, the security may become a larger percentage of the fund’s total assets due to movements in the financial markets. If the market affects several securities held by a fund, the fund may have a greater percentage of its assets invested in securities of fewer issuers. Accordingly, a fund would be subject to the risk that its performance may be hurt disproportionately by the poor performance of relatively few securities despite the fund qualifying as a diversified fund under applicable federal securities laws.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

The following information supplements the discussion of each Fund’s investment objective and policies as set forth in its Prospectus. The Funds may invest in the following types of investments, each of which is subject to certain risks, as discussed below.

Risks Associated With Recent Economic Events

The U.S. credit markets have been experiencing extreme volatility and disruption for more than five years, which could have an adverse effect on the Funds. In particular, instability in the credit markets may increase the volatility of the value of securities owned by a Fund and may also make it more difficult for a Fund to accurately value its securities or to sell its securities on a timely basis. In addition, these developments may also adversely affect the broader economy, which in turn may adversely affect the ability of issuers of securities owned by a Fund to make payments of principal and interest when due, lead to lower credit ratings of issuers and increased defaults by issuers. Such developments could, in turn, reduce the value of securities owned by a Fund and adversely affect the net asset value (“NAV”) of its shares.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) significantly revises and expands the rulemaking, supervisory and enforcement authority of federal bank, securities and commodities regulators. It is unclear how these regulators will exercise these revised and expanded powers and whether they will undertake rulemaking, supervisory or enforcement actions that would adversely affect a Fund or investments made by a Fund. Possible regulatory actions taken under these revised and expanded powers may include actions related to financial consumer protection, proprietary trading and derivatives. There is a risk that new and additional government regulation authorized by the Dodd-Frank Act could result in higher Fund costs and expenses. Legislators and regulators in the United States are currently considering a wide range of proposals in addition to the Dodd-Frank Act that, if enacted, could result in major changes to the way banking operations are regulated. In addition, the recent European debt crisis and related financial restructuring efforts have contributed to the instability in global credit markets. The strength and duration of any economic recovery will be impacted by the European debt crisis and the reaction to any efforts to address the crisis.

Government Intervention in Financial Markets Risk

The recent instability in the financial markets has led the U.S. government and foreign governments to take a number of unprecedented actions designed to support certain financial institutions and segments of the financial markets that have experienced extreme volatility, and in some cases a lack of liquidity. U.S. federal and state governments and foreign governments, their regulatory agencies or self-regulatory organizations may take additional actions that affect the regulation of the securities in which a Fund invests, or the issuers of such securities, in ways that are unforeseeable. Issuers of corporate securities might seek protection under the bankruptcy laws. Legislation or regulation may also change the way in which a Fund itself is regulated. Such legislation or regulation could limit or preclude a Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

Equity Securities

The Funds may invest in equity securities consistent with each Fund’s investment objective and strategies. Common stocks, preferred stocks and convertible securities are examples of equity securities.

All investments in equity securities are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Historically, the equity markets have moved in cycles and the value of the securities in a Fund’s portfolio may fluctuate substantially from day to day. Owning an equity security can also subject a Fund to the risk that the issuer may discontinue paying dividends.

To the extent a Fund invests in the equity securities of U.S. small- or medium-sized companies, it will be exposed to the risks of U.S. small- and medium-sized companies. Such companies have narrower markets for their goods and/or services and more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies. Furthermore, those companies often have limited product lines or services, markets or financial resources or are dependent on a small management group. In addition, because these stocks are not well-known to the investing public, do not have significant institutional ownership and are followed by relatively few security analysts, there will normally be less publicly available information concerning these securities compared to what is available for the securities of larger companies. Adverse publicity and investor perceptions, whether or not based on fundamental analysis, can decrease the value and liquidity of securities held by a Fund. As a result, as compared to larger-sized companies, the performance of smaller-sized companies can be more volatile and they face greater risk of business failure, which could increase the volatility of a Fund’s portfolio.

Larger more established companies, on the other hand, may be unable to respond as quickly as U.S. small- or medium sized companies to new competitive challenges, such as changes in technology and consumer tastes. As a result they may not be able to attain the high growth rate that successful smaller companies enjoy, especially during extended periods of economic expansion.

Common Stock

A common stock represents a proportionate share of the ownership of a company and its value is based on the success of the company’s business, any income paid to stockholders, the value of its assets, and general market conditions. In addition to the general risks set forth above, investments in common stocks are subject to the risk that in the event a company in which a Fund invests is liquidated, the holders of preferred stock and creditors of that company will be paid in full before any payments are made to a Fund as a holder of that company’s common stock. It is possible that all assets of that company will be exhausted before any payments are made to a Fund.

Preferred Stock

Preferred stocks are equity securities that often pay dividends at a specific rate and have a preference over common stocks in dividend payments and liquidation of assets. A preferred stock has 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. Although the dividend is set at a fixed annual rate, in some circumstances it can be changed or omitted by the issuer.

Convertible Securities

The Funds may invest in convertible securities. Convertible securities (such as debt securities or preferred stock) may be converted into or exchanged for a prescribed amount of common stock of the same or different issuer within a particular period of time at a specified price or formula. A convertible security entitles the holder to receive interest paid or accrued on debt or dividends paid on preferred stock until the convertible stock matures or is redeemed, converted or exchanged. While no securities investment is without some risk, investments in convertible securities generally entail less risk than the issuer’s common stock. However, the extent to which such risk is reduced depends in large measure upon the degree to which the convertible security sells above its value as a fixed income security. In addition to the general risk associated with equity securities discussed above, the market value of convertible securities is also affected by prevailing interest rates, the credit quality of the issuer and any call provisions. While convertible securities generally offer lower interest or dividend yields than nonconvertible debt securities of similar quality, they do enable the investor to benefit from increases in the market price of the underlying common stock.

Warrants

The Funds may invest in warrants. A warrant, which is issued by the underlying issuer, gives the holder a right to purchase at any time during a specified period a predetermined number of shares of common stock at a fixed price. Unlike convertible debt securities or preferred stock, warrants do not pay a fixed dividend. Investments in warrants involve certain risks, including the possible lack of a liquid market for resale of the warrants, potential price fluctuations as a result of speculation or other factors and failure of the price of the underlying security to reach, or have reasonable prospects of reaching, a level at which the warrant can be prudently exercised (in which event the warrant may expire without being exercised, resulting in a loss of a Fund’s entire investment therein).

Repurchase Agreements

The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements with respect to their portfolio securities. Pursuant to such agreements, a Fund acquires securities from financial institutions such as banks and broker-dealers as are deemed to be creditworthy by the Adviser, subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase and the Fund’s agreement to resell such securities at a mutually agreed upon date and price. The repurchase price generally equals the price paid by a Fund plus interest negotiated on the basis of current short-term rates (which may be more or less than the rate on the underlying portfolio security). The seller under a repurchase agreement will be required to maintain the value of the underlying securities at not less than 102% of the repurchase price under the agreement. If the seller defaults on its repurchase obligation, a Fund will suffer a loss to the extent that the proceeds from a sale of the underlying securities are less than the repurchase price under the agreement. Bankruptcy or insolvency of such a defaulting seller may cause a Fund’s rights with respect to such securities to be delayed or limited. Repurchase agreements are considered to be loans under the 1940 Act. The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements of short durations, from overnight to one week, although the underlying securities would generally have longer maturities. The Funds may not enter into a repurchase agreement with more than seven days to maturity if, as a result, more than 15% of the value of its net assets would be invested in illiquid securities including such repurchase agreements.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

Although the Funds have no current intention to do so, the Funds may also enter into reverse repurchase agreements. The Funds may invest up to one-third (1/3) of their assets in reverse repurchase agreements. Under a reverse repurchase agreement, a Fund agrees to sell a security in its portfolio and then to repurchase the security at an agreed-upon price, date, and interest payment. A Fund will maintain cash or high-grade liquid debt securities with a value equal to the value of such Fund’s obligation under the agreement, including accrued interest, in a segregated account with the Funds’ custodian. The securities subject to the reverse repurchase agreement will be marked-to-market daily.

Reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk that the market value of securities retained in lieu of sale by a Fund may decline below the price of the securities such Fund has sold but is obliged to repurchase. If the buyer of securities under a reverse repurchase agreement files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, such buyer or its trustee or receiver may receive an extension of time to determine whether to enforce a Fund’s obligation to repurchase the securities. During that time, a Fund’s use of the proceeds of the reverse repurchase agreement effectively may be restricted. Reverse repurchase agreements create leverage, a speculative factor and are considered borrowings for the purpose of a Fund’s limitation on borrowing. Reverse repurchase agreements are considered to be borrowing under the 1940 Act.

Borrowing

The 1940 Act permits a portfolio to borrow money in amounts of up to one-third of a Fund’s total assets from banks for any purpose, and to borrow up to 5% of a Fund’s total assets from banks or other lenders for temporary purposes. To limit the risks attendant to borrowing, the 1940 Act requires a Fund to maintain at all times an “asset coverage” of at least 300% of the amount of its borrowings. Asset coverage means the ratio that the value of a Fund’s totals assets, minus liabilities other than borrowings, bears to the aggregate amount of all borrowings. Borrowing money to increase a Fund’s investment portfolio is known as “leveraging.” Borrowing, especially when used for leverage, may cause the value of a Fund’s shares to be more volatile than if a Fund did not borrow. This is because borrowing tends to magnify the effect of any increase or decrease in the value of a Fund’s portfolio holdings. Borrowed money thus creates an opportunity for greater gains, but also greater losses. To repay borrowings, a Fund may have to sell securities at a time and at a price that is unfavorable to the Fund. There also are costs associated with borrowing money, and these costs would offset and could eliminate a Fund’s net investment income in any given period. Currently, the Funds do not contemplate borrowing money for investment purposes. The Funds’ Investment Restriction regarding borrowing will be interpreted to permit the Funds to engage in trading practices and investments that may be considered to be borrowing to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. Reverse repurchase agreements may be considered to be a type of borrowing. Short-term credits necessary for the settlement of securities transactions and arrangements with respect to securities lending will not be considered to borrowings under the policy. Practices and investments that may involve leverage but are not considered to be borrowings are not subject to the policy. Such trading practices may include futures, options on futures, forward contracts and other derivative instruments.

The 1940 Act prohibits the Fund from issuing senior securities except that the Fund may borrow money in amounts of up to one-third of the Fund’s total assets for any purpose. The Fund also may borrow up to 5% of the Fund’s total assets from banks or other lenders for temporary purposes, and these borrowings are not considered senior securities. The issuance of senior securities by a Fund can increase the speculative character of the Fund’s outstanding shares through leveraging. Leveraging of the Fund’s portfolio through the issuance of senior securities magnifies the potential for gain or loss on monies, because even though the Fund’s net assets remain the same, the total risk to investors is increased. Certain widely used investment practices that involve a commitment by the Fund to deliver money or securities in liquid securities in an amount necessary to pay the obligation or the Fund holds an offsetting commitment from another party. These investment practices include repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, swaps, dollar rolls, options, futures and forward contracts. The Funds’ policy on borrowing will be interpreted not to prevent collateral arrangements with respect to swaps, options, forward or futures contracts or other derivatives, or the posting of initial or variation margin.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

When-Issued Securities

The Funds may from time to time purchase securities on a “when-issued” basis. The price of such securities, which may be expressed in yield terms, is fixed at the time the commitment to purchase is made, but delivery and payment for them take place at a later date. Normally, the settlement date occurs within one month of the purchase; during the period between purchase and settlement, no payment is made by a Fund to the issuer and no interest accrues to such Fund. To the extent that assets of a Fund are held in cash pending the settlement of a purchase of securities, such Fund would earn no income; however, it is each Fund’s intention to be fully invested to the extent practicable and subject to the policies stated above. While when-issued securities may be sold prior to the settlement date, the Funds intend to purchase them with the purpose of actually acquiring them unless a sale appears desirable for investment reasons. At the time a Fund makes the commitment to purchase a security on a when-issued basis, it will record the transaction and reflect the value of the security in determining its net asset value. The market value of the when-issued securities may be more or less than the purchase price. The Funds do not believe that their net asset value or income will be adversely affected by their purchase of securities on a when-issued basis. The Funds’ custodian will segregate liquid assets equal in value to commitments for when-issued securities. Such segregated assets either will mature or, if necessary, be sold on or before the settlement date.

Illiquid Securities

The Funds may not invest more than 15% of the value of their net assets in illiquid securities. The Adviser will monitor the amount of illiquid securities in each Fund’s portfolio, under the supervision of the Board, to ensure compliance with this investment restriction.

Historically, illiquid securities have included securities subject to contractual or legal restrictions on resale because they have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), securities which are otherwise not readily marketable and repurchase agreements having a maturity of longer than seven days. Securities which have not been registered under the 1933 Act are referred to as private placement or restricted securities and are purchased directly from the issuer or in the secondary market. Mutual funds do not typically hold a significant amount of these restricted or other illiquid securities because of the potential for delays on resale and uncertainty in valuation. Limitations on resale may have an adverse effect on the marketability of portfolio securities, and a Fund might be unable to sell restricted or other illiquid securities promptly or at reasonable prices and might thereby experience difficulty satisfying redemption requests within seven days. A Fund might also have to register such restricted securities in order to sell them, resulting in additional expense and delay. Adverse market conditions could impede such a public offering of securities.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

Restricted Securities

The Funds may invest in securities that are subject to restrictions on resale because they have not been registered under the 1933 Act. These securities are sometimes referred to as private placements. Although securities which may be resold only to “qualified institutional buyers” in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144A under the 1933 Act are technically considered “restricted securities,” the Funds may purchase Rule 144A securities without regard to the limitation on investments in illiquid securities described above in the “Illiquid Securities” section, provided that a determination is made that such securities have a readily available trading market. The Funds may also purchase certain commercial paper issued in reliance on the exemption from regulations in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act (“4(2) Paper”). The Adviser will determine the liquidity of Rule 144A securities and 4(2) Paper under the supervision of the Board. The liquidity of Rule 144A securities and 4(2) Paper will be monitored by the Adviser, and if as a result of changed conditions it is determined that a Rule 144A security or 4(2) Paper is no longer liquid, a Fund’s holdings of illiquid securities will be reviewed to determine what, if any, action is required to assure that such Fund does not exceed its applicable percentage limitation for investments in illiquid securities.

Limitations on the resale of restricted securities may have an adverse effect on the marketability of portfolio securities and a Fund might be unable to dispose of restricted securities promptly or at reasonable prices and might thereby experience difficulty satisfying redemption requirements. A Fund might also have to register such restricted securities in order to dispose of them, resulting in additional expense and delay. Adverse market conditions could impede such a public offering of securities.

Fixed Income Securities

The Adviser may purchase fixed income securities and convertible bonds for each Fund’s portfolio in pursuing its investment goal, even though equity securities are the primary focus of the Funds, the Adviser may prefer to purchase fixed income securities during times of high interest rates or when it believes that the outlook for the equity markets is sufficiently unsettled to warrant building yield into such Fund’s portfolio.

Fixed income securities include traditional debt securities issued by corporations, such as bonds and debentures, and debt securities that are convertible into common stock and interests. Fixed income securities eligible for purchase by Funds include investment grade corporate debt securities, those rated BBB or better by Standard & Poor’s® Ratings Group (“S&P®”) or Baa or better by Moody’s Investors Service©, Inc. (“Moody’s”). Securities rated BBB by S&P® are considered investment grade, but Moody’s considers securities rated Baa to have speculative characteristics.

Lower-rated securities generally offer a higher current yield than that available for higher grade securities. However, lower-rated securities involve higher risks in that they are especially subject to adverse changes in general economic conditions and in the industries in which the issuers are engaged, to changes in the financial condition of the issuers and to price fluctuations in response to changes in interest rates. During periods of economic downturn or rising interest rates, highly leveraged issuers may experience financial stress that could adversely affect their ability to make payments of interest and principal and increase the possibility of default.

The market for lower-rated debt securities generally is thinner and less active than that for higher quality securities, which may limit a Fund’s ability to sell such securities at fair value in response to changes in the economy or financial markets. Adverse publicity and investor perceptions, whether based on fundamental analysis, may also decrease the values and liquidity of lower-rated securities, especially in a thinly traded market.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

Lower-rated debt obligations also present risks based on payment expectations. If an issuer calls the obligation for redemption, a Fund may have to replace the security with a lower-yielding security, resulting in a decreased return for investors. Also, as the principal value of bonds moves inversely with movements in interest rates, in the event of rising interest rates the value of the lower-rated securities held by a Fund may decline proportionately more than a fund consisting of higher-rated securities. If a Fund experiences unexpected net redemptions, it may be forced to sell its higher-rated bonds, resulting in a decline in the overall credit quality of the securities held by such Fund and increasing the exposure of that Fund to the risks of lower-rated securities.

Ratings of debt securities represent the rating agencies’ opinions regarding their quality, are not a guarantee of quality and may be reduced after a Fund has acquired the security. If a security’s rating is reduced while it is held by a Fund, the Adviser will consider whether such Fund should continue to hold the security but is not required to dispose of it. Credit ratings attempt to evaluate the safety of principal and interest payments and do not evaluate the risks of fluctuations in market value. Also, rating agencies may fail to make timely changes in credit ratings in response to subsequent events, so that an issuer’s current financial conditions may be better or worse than the rating indicates. The ratings for debt securities are described in the Appendix.

Fixed income securities with longer maturities generally entail greater risk than those with shorter maturities, and are negatively impacted to a greater extent by rising interest rates.

The Funds may invest in zero-coupon and delayed interest securities. Zero-coupon securities make no periodic interest payments, but are sold at a deep discount from their face value. The buyer recognizes a rate of return determined by the gradual appreciation of the security, which is redeemed at face value on a specified maturity date. The discount varies depending on the time remaining until maturity, as well as market interest rates, liquidity of the security, and the issuer’s perceived credit quality. The discount, in the absence of financial difficulties of the issuer, typically decreases as the final maturity date approaches. If the issuer defaults, the Funds may not receive any return on their investment. Because zero-coupon securities bear no interest and compound semi-annually at the rate fixed at the time of issuance, their value generally is more volatile than the value of other fixed-income securities. Since zero-coupon bondholders do not receive interest payments, when interest rates rise, zero-coupon securities fall more dramatically in value than bonds paying interest on a current basis. When interest rates fall, zero-coupon securities rise more rapidly in value because the bonds reflect a fixed rate of return. An investment in zero-coupon and delayed interest securities may cause the Funds to recognize income and make distributions to shareholders before they receive any cash payments on its investment. To generate cash to satisfy distribution requirements, the Funds may have to sell portfolio securities that they otherwise would have continued to hold or to use cash flows from other sources such as the sale of Fund shares.

Municipal Securities

The Funds may invest in municipal securities. Municipal securities are debt obligations issued by or on behalf of states, territories and possessions of the United States, including the District of Columbia, and any political subdivisions or financing authority of any of these, the income from which is, in the opinion of qualified legal counsel, exempt from regular federal income tax. However, it is not anticipated that the Funds will be eligible to distribute exempt-interest dividends to shareholders.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

Municipal securities are generally issued to finance public works such as airports, bridges, highways, housing, hospitals, mass transportation projects, schools, street and water and sewer works. They are also issued to repay outstanding obligations, to raise funds for general operating expenses and to make loans to other public institutions and facilities. Municipal securities include industrial development bonds issued by or on behalf of public authorities to provide financing aid to acquire sites or construct and equip facilities for privately or publicly owned corporations. The availability of this financing encourages these corporations to locate within the sponsoring communities and thereby increases local employment.

The two principal classifications of municipal securities are “general obligation” and “revenue” bonds. General obligation bonds are secured by the issuer’s pledge of its full faith and credit and taxing power for the payment of principal and interest. Interest on and principal of revenue bonds, however, are payable only from the revenue generated by the facility financed by the bond or other specified sources of revenue. Revenue bonds do not represent a pledge of credit or create any debt of or charge against the general revenues of a municipality or public authority. Industrial development bonds are typically classified as revenue bonds.

The Funds’ investments may include, but are not limited to, the following types of municipal securities: industrial development bonds; municipal notes and bonds; serial notes and bonds sold with a series of maturity dates; tax anticipation notes and bonds sold to finance working capital needs of municipalities in anticipation of receiving taxes at a later date; bond anticipation notes sold in anticipation of the issuance of longer-term bonds in the future; pre-refunded municipal bonds refundable at a later date (payment of principal and interest on pre-refunded bonds are assured through the first call date by the deposit in escrow of U.S. government securities); and general obligation bonds secured by a municipality’s pledge of taxation. There are no restrictions on the maturity of municipal securities in which the Funds may invest. The Adviser will select municipal securities based upon their belief that those securities will produce current income consistent with prudent investment and the Funds’ investment objectives.

The Funds may also purchase municipal securities with variable interest rates. Variable interest rates are ordinarily stated as a percentage of the prime rate of a bank or some similar standard, such as the 91-day U.S. Treasury bill rate. Variable interest rates are adjusted on a periodic basis (i.e., every 30 days). Many variable rate municipal securities are subject to payment of principal on demand, usually in not more than seven days. If a variable rate municipal security does not have this demand feature, or the demand feature extends beyond seven days and the Adviser believe the security cannot be sold within seven days, the Adviser may consider the security to be illiquid. Variable interest rates generally reduce changes in the market value of municipal securities from their original purchase prices. Accordingly, as interest rates decrease or increase, the potential for capital appreciation or depreciation is less for variable rate municipal securities than for fixed-income obligations. Many municipal securities with variable interest rates are subject to repayment of principal (usually within seven days) on demand. The terms of these variable rate demand instruments require payment of principal and accrued interest from the issuer of the municipal obligations, the issuer of the participation interests, or a guarantor of either issuer.

The financial institutions from which the Funds may purchase participation interests frequently provide, or secure from other financial institutions, irrevocable letters of credit or guarantees and give a Fund the right to demand payment on specified notice (normally within 30 days) from the issuer of the letter of credit or guarantee. These financial institutions may charge certain fees in connection with their repurchase commitments, including a fee equal to the excess of the interest paid on the municipal securities over the negotiated yield at which the participation interests were purchased. By purchasing participation interests, a Fund is buying a security meeting its quality requirements and is also receiving the tax-free benefits of the underlying securities.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

Yields on municipal securities depend on a variety of factors, including: the general conditions of the money market and the taxable and municipal securities markets; the size of the particular offering; the maturity of the obligations; and the credit quality of the issue. Any adverse economic conditions or developments affecting the states or municipalities could impact a Fund’s portfolio.

Mortgage-Backed Securities

A mortgage-backed security is a type of pass-through security, which is a security representing pooled debt obligations repackaged as interests that pass income through an intermediary to investors. In the case of mortgage-backed securities, the ownership interest is in a pool of mortgage loans.

The residential mortgage market in the United States recently experienced difficulties that may adversely affect the performance and market value of certain of the Funds’ mortgage-related investments. Delinquencies and losses on residential mortgage loans (especially subprime and second-lien mortgage loans) have generally increased recently and may continue to increase in the future. A decline or flattening of housing values (as has recently been experienced and may continue to be experienced in many housing markets) may exacerbate such delinquencies and losses. Borrowers with adjustable rate mortgages are sensitive to changes in interest rates, which affect their monthly mortgage payments, and may be unable to secure replacement mortgages at comparably low interest rates. Also, a number of residential mortgage loan originators recently experienced serious financial difficulties or bankruptcy. Owing largely to the foregoing, reduced investor demand for mortgage-related securities and increased investor yield requirements have caused limited liquidity in the secondary market for mortgage-related securities, which may adversely affect the market value of mortgage-related securities. It is possible that such limited liquidity in such secondary markets could continue or worsen.

Mortgage-backed securities are most commonly issued or guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae” or “GNMA”), Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae” or “FNMA”), Federal Home Loan Banks (“FHLB”) or Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac” or “FHLMC”), but may also be issued or guaranteed by other private issuers. GNMA is a government-owned corporation that is an agency of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. It guarantees, with the full faith and credit of the United States, full and timely payment of all monthly principal and interest on its mortgage-backed securities. FNMA is a publicly owned, government-sponsored corporation that mostly packages mortgages backed by the Federal Housing Administration, but also sells some non-governmentally backed mortgages. Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest only by FNMA. The FHLMC is a publicly chartered agency that buys qualifying residential mortgages from lenders, re-packages them and provides certain guarantees. Pass-through securities issued by the FHLMC are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest only by the FHLMC.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

Some of these obligations are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury; others are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; others are supported by the discretionary authority of the U.S. government to purchase the agency’s obligations; still others, are supported only by the credit of the instrumentality. No assurance can be given that the U.S. government would provide financial support to U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so by law.

Mortgage-backed securities issued by private issuers, whether such obligations are subject to guarantees by the private issuer, may entail greater risk than obligations directly or indirectly guaranteed by the U.S. government. The average life of a mortgage-backed security is likely to be substantially less than the original maturity of the mortgage pools underlying the securities. Prepayments of principal by mortgagors and mortgage foreclosures will usually result in the return of the greater part of principal invested far in advance of the maturity of the mortgages in the pool.

Collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) are debt obligations collateralized by mortgage loans or mortgage pass-through securities (collateral collectively hereinafter referred to as “Mortgage Assets”). Multi-class pass-through securities are interests in a trust composed of Mortgage Assets and all references in this section to CMOs include multi-class pass-through securities. Principal prepayments on the Mortgage Assets may cause the CMOs to be retired substantially earlier than their stated maturities or final distribution dates, resulting in a loss of all or part of the premium if any has been paid. Interest is paid or accrues on all classes of the CMOs on a monthly, quarterly or semiannual basis. The principal and interest payments on the Mortgage Assets may be allocated among the various classes of CMOs in several ways. Typically, payments of principal, including any prepayments, on the underlying mortgages are applied to the classes in the order of their respective stated maturities or final distribution dates, so that no payment of principal is made on CMOs of a class until all CMOs of other classes having earlier stated maturities or final distribution dates have been paid in full.

Stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBS”) are derivative multi-class mortgage securities. The Funds will only invest in SMBS whose mortgage assets are U.S. government obligations and are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions from a pool of mortgage assets. A common type of SMBS will be structured so that one class receives some of the interest and most of the principal from the mortgage assets, while the other class receives most of the interest and the remainder of the principal. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the Funds may fail to fully recoup their initial investment in these securities. The market value of any class which consists primarily or entirely of principal payments is generally unusually volatile in response to changes in interest rates.

Investment in mortgage-backed securities poses several risks, including among others, prepayment, market and credit risk. Prepayment risk reflects the risk that borrowers may prepay their mortgages faster than expected, thereby affecting the investment’s average life and perhaps its yield. Whether a mortgage loan is prepaid is almost entirely controlled by the borrower. Borrowers are most likely to exercise prepayment options at the time when it is least advantageous to investors, generally prepaying mortgages as interest rates fall, and slowing payments as interest rates rise. Besides the effect of prevailing interest rates, the rate of prepayment and refinancing of mortgages may also be affected by home value appreciation, ease of the refinancing process and local economic conditions. Market risk reflects the risk that the price of a security may fluctuate over time. The price of mortgage-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to prevailing interest rates, the length of time the security is expected to be outstanding and the liquidity of the issue. In a period of unstable interest rates, there may be decreased demand for certain types of mortgage-backed securities, and a Fund invested in such securities wishing to sell them may find it difficult to find a buyer, which may in turn decrease the price at which they may be sold. Credit risk reflects the risk that a Fund may not receive all or part of its principal because the issuer or credit enhancer has defaulted on its obligations. Obligations issued by U.S. government-related entities are guaranteed as to the payment of principal and interest, but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The performance of private label mortgage-backed securities, issued by private institutions, is based on the financial health of those institutions. With respect to GNMA certificates, although GNMA guarantees timely payment even if homeowners delay or default, tracking the “pass-through” payments may, at times, be difficult.

Agency Obligations

The Funds may make short-term investments in agency obligations, such as the Export-Import Bank of the United States, Tennessee Valley Authority, Resolution Funding Corporation, Farmers Home Administration, Federal Home Loan Banks, Federal Intermediate Credit Banks, Federal Farm Credit Banks, Federal Land Banks, Federal Housing Administration, FNMA, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, and the Student Loan Marketing Association. Some, such as those of the Export-Import Bank of United States, are supported only by the right of the issuer to borrow from the Treasury; others, such as those of the FNMA, are supported by only the discretionary authority of the U.S. government to purchase the agency’s obligations; still others, such as those of the Student Loan Marketing Association, are supported only by the credit of the instrumentality. No assurance can be given that the U.S. government would provide financial support to U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities because it is not obligated to do so by law.

As of September 7, 2008, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) was appointed to be the Conservator of the FHLMC and the FNMA for an indefinite period. In accordance with the Federal Housing Finance Regulatory Reform Act of 2008 and the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992, as Conservator, the FHFA will control and oversee these entities until the FHFA deems them financially sound and solvent. During the Conservatorship, each entity’s obligations are expected to be paid in the normal course of business. Although no express guarantee exists for the debt or mortgage-backed securities issued by these entities, the U.S. Department of Treasury, through a secured lending credit facility and a Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, has attempted to enhance the ability of these entities to meet their obligations.

Options and Futures Transactions

To the extent consistent with its investment objective and policies, a Fund may purchase and write call and put options on securities, securities indices and on foreign currencies and enter into futures contracts and use options on futures contracts, to the extent of up to 5% of its assets. The Funds have no present intention of engaging in such transactions.

Transactions in options on securities and on indices involve certain risks. For example, there are significant differences between the securities and options markets that could result in an imperfect correlation between these markets, causing a given transaction not to achieve its objectives. A decision as to whether, when and how to use options involves the exercise of skill and judgment, and even a well-conceived transaction may be unsuccessful to some degree because of market behavior or unexpected events.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

There can be no assurance that a liquid market will exist when a Fund seeks to close out an option position. If a Fund were unable to close out an option that it had purchased on a security, it would have to exercise the option in order to realize any profit or the option may expire worthless. If a Fund were unable to close out a covered call option that it had written on a security, it would not be able to sell the underlying security unless the option expired without exercise. As the writer of a covered call option, a Fund forgoes, during the option’s life, the opportunity to profit from increases in the market value of the security covering the call option above the sum of the premium and the exercise price of the call.

If trading were suspended in an option purchased by a Fund, such Fund would not be able to close out the option. If restrictions on exercise were imposed, a Fund might be unable to exercise an option it has purchased. Except to the extent that a call option on an index written by a Fund is covered by an option on the same index purchased by such Fund, movements in the index may result in a loss to such Fund; such losses may be mitigated or exacerbated by changes in the value of a Fund’s securities during the period the option was outstanding.

Use of futures contracts and options thereon also involves certain risks. The variable degree of correlation between price movements of futures contracts and price movements in the related portfolio positions of a Fund creates the possibility that losses on the hedging instrument may be greater than gains in the value of such Fund’s position. Also, futures and options markets may not be liquid in all circumstances and certain over the counter options may have no markets. As a result, in certain markets, a Fund might not be able to close out a transaction at all or without incurring losses. Although the use of options and futures transactions for hedging should minimize the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the hedged position, at the same time they tend to limit any potential gain which might result from an increase in the value of such position. If losses were to result from the use of such transactions, they could reduce net asset value and possibly income. A Fund may use these techniques to hedge against changes in interest rates or securities prices or as part of its overall investment strategy. The Funds will segregate liquid assets, (or, as permitted by applicable regulation, enter into certain offsetting positions) to cover their obligations under options and futures contracts to avoid leveraging.

Pursuant to amendments by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to Rule 4.5 under the Commodity Exchange Act (“CEA”), the Adviser will take all necessary regulatory action, including filing a notice of exemption from registration as a “commodity pool operator” with respect to the Funds, prior to the execution of any transactions involving futures. Upon filing a notice of exemption, the Funds and the Adviser would not be subject to registration or regulation as a commodity pool operator under the CEA. In order to claim the Rule 4.5 exemption, the Funds would be significantly limited in their ability to invest in commodity futures, options and swaps (including securities futures, broad-based stock index futures and financial futures contracts).

Short-Term Investments

The Funds may invest in any of the following securities and instruments:

Certificates of Deposit, Bankers’ Acceptances and Time Deposits

The Funds may hold certificates of deposit, bankers’ acceptances and time deposits. Certificates of deposit are negotiable certificates issued against funds deposited in a commercial bank for a definite period of time and earning a specified return. Bankers’ acceptances are negotiable drafts or bills of exchange, normally drawn by an importer or exporter to pay for specific merchandise, which are “accepted” by a bank, meaning in effect that the bank unconditionally agrees to pay the face value of the instrument on maturity. Certificates of deposit and bankers’ acceptances acquired by the Funds will be dollar-denominated obligations of domestic banks, savings and loan associations or financial institutions which, at the time of purchase, have capital, surplus and undivided profits in excess of $100 million (including assets of both domestic and foreign branches), based on latest published reports, or less than $100 million if the principal amount of such bank obligations are fully insured by the U.S. government.

In addition to buying certificates of deposit and bankers’ acceptances, the Funds also may make interest-bearing time or other interest-bearing deposits in commercial or savings banks. Time deposits are non-negotiable deposits maintained at a banking institution for a specified period of time at a specified interest rate.

Commercial Paper and Short-Term Notes

The Funds may invest a portion of their assets in commercial paper and short-term notes. Commercial paper consists of unsecured promissory notes issued by corporations. Commercial paper and short-term notes will normally have maturities of less than nine months and fixed rates of return, although such instruments may have maturities of up to one year.

Commercial paper and short-term notes will consist of issues rated at the time of purchase A- or higher by S&P®, “Prime-1” or “Prime-2” by Moody’s, or similarly rated by another nationally recognized statistical rating organization or, if unrated, will be determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. These rating symbols are described in the Appendix.

Sector Emphasis

The Funds, each may, from time to time, have greater than 25% of its assets in one market sector (but not greater than 80% in any one market sector). To the extent that the Funds focus their investments in one or more sectors, they may be subject to the risks affecting that sector more than if they were a more broadly diversified fund. The Adviser’s judgment about which sectors offer the greatest potential for long-term financial reward may, and likely will, change over time. In fact, Funds may focus their investments in any sector, depending on their investment strategy.

Other Investment Companies

The Funds may invest their assets in the securities of other registered investment companies, including money market mutual funds, subject to the limitations set forth in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the “1940 Act”). Investments in the securities of other investment companies will likely result in the duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company, a Fund becomes a shareholder of that investment company. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly will bear a Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment company, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders directly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

Each Fund currently intends to limit its investments in securities issued by other investment companies so that not more than 3% of the outstanding voting stock of any one investment company (other than money market funds) will be owned by a Fund, or its affiliated persons, as a whole. In addition to the advisory and operational fees a Fund bears directly in connection with its own operation, the Fund would also bear its pro rata portions of each other investment company’s advisory and operational expenses.

Section 12(d)(1) of the 1940 Act restricts investments by registered investment companies in securities of other registered investment companies. The acquisition of shares by the Funds in other registered investment companies is therefore subject to the restrictions of Section 12(d)(1) of the 1940 Act, except as may be permitted by Rule and/or an exemptive order obtained by the other registered investment companies that permits the Funds to invest those other registered investment companies beyond the limits of Section 12(d)(1), subject to certain terms and conditions, including that the Funds enter into an agreement with those other registered investment companies regarding the terms of the investment.

In accordance with Section 12(d)(1)(F) and Rule 12d1-3 of the 1940 Act, the provisions of Section 12(d)(1) shall not apply to securities purchased or otherwise acquired by a Fund if (i) immediately after such purchase or acquisition not more than 3% of the total outstanding stock of such registered investment company is owned by a Fund and all affiliated persons of a Fund; and (ii) a Fund is not proposing to offer or sell any security issued by it through a principal underwriter or otherwise at a public or offering price including a sales load that exceeds the limits set forth in Rule 2830 of the Conduct Rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) applicable to a fund of funds (i.e., 8.5%).

Securities Lending

Each Fund reserves the right, pending receipt of Board approval to lend securities from its portfolio to brokers, dealers and financial institutions (but not individuals) in order to increase the return on its portfolio. The SEC currently requires that the following conditions must be met whenever a Fund’s portfolio securities are loaned: (1) the Fund must receive at least 100% cash collateral (which may include cash, U.S. government or agency securities or irrevocable bank letters of credit) from the borrower; (2) the borrower must increase such collateral whenever the market value of the securities rises above the level of such collateral; (3) the Fund must be able to terminate the loan at any time; (4) the Fund must receive reasonable interest on the loan, as well as any dividends, interest or other distributions on the loaned securities, and any increase in market value; (5) the Fund may pay only reasonable custodian fees approved by the Board in connection with the loan; (6) while voting rights on the loaned securities may pass to the borrower, the Board must terminate the loan and regain the right to vote the securities if a material event adversely affecting the investment occurs, and (7) the Fund may not loan its portfolio securities so that the value of the loaned securities is more than one-third of its total asset value, including collateral received from such loans. These conditions may be subject to future modification. Such loans will be terminable at any time upon specified notice. A Fund might experience the risk of loss if the institution with which it has engaged in a portfolio loan transaction breaches its agreement with the Fund. In addition, a Fund will not enter into any portfolio security lending arrangement having a duration of longer than one year. The principal risk of portfolio lending is potential default or insolvency of the borrower. In either of these cases, a Fund could experience delays in recovering securities or collateral or could lose all or part of the value of the loaned securities. As part of participating in a lending program, a Fund may be required to invest in collateralized debt or other securities that bear the risk of loss of principal. In addition, all investments made with the collateral received are subject to the risks associated with such investments. If such investments lose value, a Fund will have to cover the loss when repaying the collateral.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

Any loans of portfolio securities are fully collateralized based on values that are marked-to-market daily. Any securities that the Funds may receive as collateral will not become part of the Fund’s investment portfolio at the time of the loan and, in the event of a default by the borrower, a Fund will, if permitted by law, dispose of such collateral except for such part thereof that is a security in which the Fund is permitted to invest. During the time securities are on loan, the borrower will pay a Fund any accrued income on those securities, and the Fund may invest the cash collateral and earn income or receive an agreed-upon fee from a borrower that has delivered cash-equivalent collateral.

Exchange-Traded Funds

The Funds may also invest in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”). ETFs are typically open-end investment companies that are bought and sold on a national securities exchange and seek to replicate the performance, before fees and expenses, of an underlying basket of securities. An ETF is similar to a traditional mutual fund, but trades at different prices during the day on a security exchange like a stock. Similar to investments in other investment companies discussed above, the Fund’s investments in ETFs will involve duplication of advisory fees and other expenses since the Funds will be investing in another investment company. In addition, a Fund’s investment in ETFs is also subject to its limitations on investments in investment companies discussed above. To the extent a Fund invests in ETFs which focus on a particular market segment or industry, the Fund will also be subject to the risks associated with investing in those sectors or industries. The shares of the ETFs in which a Fund will invest will be listed on a national securities exchange and the Fund will purchase or sell these shares on the secondary market at its current market price, which may be more or less than its NAV. Investors in the Funds should be aware that ETFs that seek to replicate a particular benchmark index are subject to “tracking risk,” which is the risk that an ETF will not be able to replicate exactly the performance of the index it tracks.

As a purchaser of ETF shares on the secondary market, a Fund will be subject to the market risk associated with owning any security whose value is based on market price. ETF shares historically have tended to trade at or near their NAV, but there is no guarantee that they will continue to do so. Unlike traditional mutual funds, shares of an ETF may be purchased and redeemed directly from the ETFs only in large blocks (typically 50,000 shares or more) and only through participating organizations that have entered into contractual agreements with the ETF. The Funds do not expect to enter into such agreements and therefore will not be able to purchase and redeem their ETF shares directly from the ETF.

To the extent a Fund invests in inverse and/or leveraged ETFs, it could be subject to the following additional risks in addition to those listed above: derivatives risk; leveraging risk; swap counterparty credit risk; tracking error risk and trading risk. ETFs may be used to gain exposure to the equity markets for uninvested cash balances. It is not intended that the Fund would use ETFs for leverage. Increased brokerage fees related to the use of ETFs will not be reflected in the Fund’s Fees and Expenses table in the Prospectus and the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate would be understated as a result since these types of trades are carved out of the portfolio turnover calculation.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

The Trust (on behalf of the Funds) has adopted the following restrictions as fundamental policies, which may not be changed without the affirmative vote of the holders of a “majority” of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund. Under the 1940 Act, the “vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities” means the vote of the holders of the lesser of (i) 67% of the shares of a Fund represented at a meeting at which the holders of more than 50% of a Fund’s outstanding shares are represented or (ii) more than 50% of the outstanding shares of a Fund. Each Fund may not:

1.	Make loans to others, except (a) through the purchase of debt securities in accordance with its investment objectives and policies, (b) to the extent the entry into a repurchase agreement is deemed to be a loan.

(a) borrow money, except as stated in the Prospectus and this Statement of Additional Information. Any such borrowing will be made only if immediately thereafter there is an asset coverage of at least 300% of all borrowings (b) Mortgage, pledge or hypothecate any of its assets except in connection with any such borrowings and only with respect to 33-1/3% of its assets.

Purchase securities on margin, participate on a joint basis or joint and several basis in any securities trading account or underwrite securities. (Does not preclude a Fund from obtaining such short-term credit as may be necessary for the clearance of purchases and sales of its portfolio securities).

4.	Purchase or sell real estate, commodities or commodity contracts (other than futures transactions for the purposes and under the conditions described in the Prospectus and in this Statement of Additional Information).

5.	Invest 25% or more of the market value of its assets in the securities of companies engaged in any one industry or group of industries. (Does not apply to investment in the securities of the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities.)

6.	Issue senior securities, as defined in the 1940 Act, except that this restriction shall not be deemed to prohibit a Fund from (a) making any permitted borrowings, mortgages or pledges, or (b) entering into options, futures, forward or repurchase transactions.

Purchase the securities of any issuer, if as a result more than 5% of the total assets of the Fund would be invested in the securities of that issuer, other than obligations of the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities, provided that up to 25% of the value of its assets may be invested without regard to this limitation.

With respect to the fundamental policy relating to concentration set in (5) above, the Funds do not consider a sector to be an industry.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

The following is a list of non-fundamental investment restrictions applicable to the Funds. These restrictions can be changed by the Board, but the change will only be effective after notice is given to shareholders of the Funds. Each Fund may not:

1.	Invest in any issuer for purposes of exercising control or management.

2.	Invest, in the aggregate, more than 15% of its net assets in illiquid securities, including repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven days.

Except with respect to borrowing, if a percentage restriction described in the Prospectus or in this SAI is adhered to at the time of investment, a subsequent increase or decrease in a percentage resulting from a change in the values of assets will not constitute a violation of that restriction. If the value of a Fund’s holdings of illiquid securities at any time exceeds the percentage limitation applicable due to subsequent fluctuations in value or other reasons, the Board will consider what actions, if any, are appropriate to maintain adequate liquidity. Each Fund will reduce its borrowing amount within three days, if that Fund’s asset coverage falls below the amount required by the 1940 Act.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

Although the Funds generally will not invest for short-term trading purposes, portfolio securities may be sold without regard to the length of time they have been held when, in the opinion of the respective Adviser, investment considerations warrant such action. Portfolio turnover rate is calculated by dividing (1) the lesser of purchases or sales of portfolio securities for the fiscal year by (2) the monthly average of the value of portfolio securities owned during the fiscal year. A 100% turnover rate would occur if all the securities in a Fund’s portfolio, with the exception of securities whose maturities at the time of acquisition were one year or less, were sold and either repurchased or replaced within one year. A high rate of portfolio turnover (100% or more) generally leads to higher transaction costs and may result in a greater number of taxable transactions. See “Execution of Portfolio Transactions.”

PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS INFORMATION

The Trust, on behalf of the Funds, has adopted portfolio holdings disclosure policies that govern the timing and circumstances of disclosure of portfolio holdings of the Funds. The Adviser have also adopted a policy with respect to disclosure of portfolio holdings of the Fund (the “Adviser’s Policy”). Information about the Funds’ portfolio holdings will not be distributed to any third party except in accordance with the portfolio holdings policies and the Adviser’s Policy (the “Disclosure Policies”). The Adviser and the Board considered the circumstances under which the Funds’ portfolio holdings may be disclosed under the Disclosure Policies and the actual and potential material conflicts that could arise in such circumstances between the interests of the Funds’ shareholders and the interests of the Adviser, distributor or any other affiliated person of the Funds. After due consideration, the Adviser and the Board determined that the Funds have a legitimate business purpose for disclosing portfolio holdings to persons described in the Disclosure Policies, including mutual fund rating or statistical agencies, or persons performing similar functions, and internal parties involved in the investment process, administration or custody of the Funds. Pursuant to the Disclosure Policies, the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”), President and Treasurer are each authorized to consider and authorize dissemination of portfolio holdings information to additional third parties, after considering the best interests of the shareholders and potential conflicts of interest in making such disclosures.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

The Board exercises continuing oversight of the disclosure of the Funds’ portfolio holdings by (1) overseeing the implementation and enforcement of the Disclosure Policies, Codes of Ethics and other relevant policies of the Funds’ and their service providers by the Trust’s CCO, (2) by considering reports and recommendations by the Trust’s CCO concerning any material compliance matters (as defined in Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act), and (3) by considering to approve any amendment to these Disclosure Policies. The Board reserves the right to amend the Disclosure Policies at any time without prior notice in their sole discretion.

Disclosure of the Funds’ complete holdings is required to be made quarterly within 60 days of the end of each period covered by the Annual Report and Semi-Annual Report to Funds shareholders and in the quarterly holdings report on Form N-Q. These reports are available, free of charge, on the EDGAR database on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. The Funds disclose their calendar quarter-end portfolio holdings on their website at www.[ ].com within 10 business days of each calendar quarter-end. The calendar quarter-end portfolio holdings for a Fund will remain posted on the website until updated. Portfolio holdings information posted on the Funds’ website may be separately provided to any person, including rating and ranking organizations such as Lipper and Morningstar, at the same time that it is filed with the SEC or one day after it is first published on the Funds’ website. In addition, the Funds may provide their complete portfolio holdings at the same time that they are filed with the SEC.

In the event of a conflict between the interests of the Funds and the interests of the Adviser or an affiliated person of the Adviser, the CCO of the Adviser, in consultation with the Trust’s CCO, shall make a determination in the best interests of the Funds and shall report such determination to the Board at the end of the quarter in which such determination was made. Any employee of the Adviser who suspects a breach of this obligation must report the matter immediately to the CCO or to his or her supervisor.

In addition, material non-public holdings information may be provided without lag as part of the normal investment activities of the Funds to each of the following entities which, by explicit agreement or by virtue of their respective duties to the Funds, are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information disclosed: fund administrator, fund accountant, custodian, transfer agent, auditors, counsel to the Adviser, Funds or the Board, broker-dealers (in connection with the purchase or sale of securities or requests for price quotations or bids on one or more securities) and regulatory authorities. Portfolio holdings information not publicly available with the SEC or through the Funds’ website may only be provided to additional third parties, including mutual fund ratings or statistical agencies, in accordance with the Disclosure Policies, when the Funds have a legitimate business purpose, and the third party recipient is subject to a confidentiality agreement that includes a duty not to trade on non-public information.

In no event shall the Adviser, their affiliates or employees, or the Funds receive any direct or indirect compensation in connection with the disclosure of information about a Funds’ portfolio holdings.

There can be no assurance that the Disclosure Policies and these procedures will protect the Funds from potential misuse of that information by individuals or entities to which it is disclosed.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

From time to time, the Adviser may make additional disclosure of the Funds’ portfolio holdings on the Funds’ website. Shareholders can access the Funds’ website at www.[ ].com for additional information about the Funds, including, without limitation, the periodic disclosure of their portfolio holdings.

TRUSTEES AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

The Board is responsible for the overall management of the Trust, including general supervision and review of the investment activities of the Funds. The Board, in turn, elects the officers of the Trust, who are responsible for administering the day-to-day operations of the Trust and its separate series.

Additional Information Concerning the Board of Trustees

The Role of the Board

The Board oversees the management and operations of the Trust. Like all mutual funds, the day-to-day management and operation of the Trust is the responsibility of the various service providers to the Trust, such as the Adviser, the Distributor, the Administrator, the Custodian, and the Transfer Agent, each of whom are discussed in greater detail in this Statement of Additional Information. The Board has appointed various senior employees of the Administrator as officers of the Trust, with responsibility to monitor and report to the Board on the Trust’s operations. In conducting this oversight, the Board receives regular reports from these officers and the service providers. For example, the Treasurer reports as to financial reporting matters and the President reports as to matters relating to the Trust’s operations. In addition, the Adviser provides regular reports on the investment strategy and performance of the Fund. The Board has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer who administers the Trust’s compliance program and regularly reports to the Board as to compliance matters. These reports are provided as part of formal “Board Meetings” which are typically held quarterly, in person, and involve the Board’s review of recent operations. In addition, various members of the Board also meet with management in less formal settings, between formal “Board Meetings,” to discuss various topics. In all cases, however, the role of the Board and of any individual Trustee is one of oversight and not of management of the day-to-day affairs of the Trust and its oversight role does not make the Board a guarantor of the Trust’s investments, operations or activities.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

Board Structure, Leadership

The Board has structured itself in a manner that it believes allows it to perform its oversight function effectively. It has established three standing committees, a Nominating Committee, an Audit Committee and a Qualified Legal Compliance Committee which are discussed in greater detail below under “Trust Committees.” All of the Trustees are Independent Trustees, which are Trustees that are not affiliated with the Adviser, the principal underwriter, or their affiliates. The Nominating Committee, Audit Committee and Qualified Legal Compliance Committee are comprised entirely of the Independent Trustees. The Chairman of the Board is an Independent Trustee. The Board has determined not to combine the Chairman position and the principal executive officer position and has appointed a Vice President of the Administrator as the President of the Trust. The Board reviews its structure and the structure of its committees annually. The Board has determined that the structure of the Independent Chairman, the composition of the Board, and the function and composition of its various committees are appropriate means to address any potential conflicts of interest that may arise.

Board Oversight of Risk Management

As part of its oversight function, the Board of Trustees receives and reviews various risk management reports and discusses these matters with appropriate management and other personnel. Because risk management is a broad concept comprised of many elements (e.g., investment risk, issuer and counterparty risk, compliance risk, operational risks, business continuity risks, etc.), the oversight of different types of risks is handled in different ways. For example, the Audit Committee meets with the Treasurer and the Trust’s independent registered public accounting firm to discuss, among other things, the internal control structure of the Trust’s financial reporting function. The Board meets regularly with the Chief Compliance Officer to discuss compliance and operational risks and how they are managed. The Board also receives reports from the Adviser as to investment risks of the Fund. In addition to these reports, from time to time the Board receives reports from the Administrator and the Adviser as to enterprise risk management.

Information about Each Trustee’s Qualification, Experience, Attributes or Skills

The Board believes that each of the Trustees has the qualifications, experience, attributes and skills (“Trustee Attributes”) appropriate to their continued service as Trustees of the Trust in light of the Trust’s business and structure. In addition to a demonstrated record of business and/or professional accomplishment, each of the Trustees has served on the Board for a number of years. They have substantial board experience and, in their service to the Trust, have gained substantial insight as to the operation of the Trust. They have demonstrated a commitment to discharging their oversight duties as trustees in the interests of shareholders. The Board annually conducts a “self-assessment” wherein the effectiveness of the Board and individual Trustees is reviewed.

In addition to the information provided in the chart above, below is certain additional information concerning each particular Trustee and his/her Trustee Attributes. The information is not all-inclusive. Many Trustee Attributes involve intangible elements, such as intelligence, integrity, work ethic, the ability to work together, the ability to communicate effectively, the ability to exercise judgment, to ask incisive questions, and commitment to shareholder interests.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

Ms. Berry’s Trustee Attributes include her substantial mutual fund experience, including her role as Chairman-elect of the Independent Directors Council and a member of the Board of Governors of the Investment Company Institute. She has executive experience through her former positions as the President of Talon Industries, Inc. (a consulting company), as the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Integrated Asset Management (an investment advisor and manager) and as the President of Value Line, Inc. (an investment advisory and financial publishing firm). Ms. Berry also has board experience with another investment management company. Ms. Berry has been determined to qualify as an Audit Committee financial expert for the Trust. The Board believes Ms. Berry’s experience, qualifications, attributes or skills on an individual basis and in combination with those of the other Trustees lead to the conclusion that she possesses the requisite skills and attributes as a Trustee to carry out oversight responsibilities with respect to the Trust.

Mr. Cook’s Trustee Attributes include his investment and executive experience through his investment consulting business and former Chief Executive Officer of Rockefeller Trust Company (an investment manager and financial advisor). He has substantial board experience, serving on the board of several foundations. Mr. Cook has been determined to qualify as an Audit Committee financial expert for the Trust. The Board believes Mr. Cook’s experience, qualifications, attributes or skills on an individual basis and in combination with those of the other Trustees lead to the conclusion that he possesses the requisite skills and attributes as a Trustee to carry out oversight responsibilities with respect to the Trust.

Mr. Falkeis’ Trustee Attributes include his substantial mutual fund experience and his experience with financial, accounting, investment and regulatory matters through his former position as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (and other positions) of U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, a full service provider to mutual funds and alternative investment products. In addition, he has experience consulting with investment advisors regarding the legal structure of mutual funds, distribution channel analysis and actual distribution of those funds. Mr. Falkeis also has substantial managerial, operational and risk oversight experience through his position as Chief Operating Officer of the Direxion Funds and the Direxion Exchange Traded Funds. Mr. Falkeis has been determined to qualify as an Audit Committee financial expert for the Trust. The Board believes Mr. Falkeis’ experience, qualifications, attributes or skills on an individual basis and in combination with those of the other Trustees lead to the conclusion that he possesses the requisite skills and attributes as a Trustee to carry out oversight responsibilities with respect to the Trust.

Mr. Froebel’s Trustee Attributes include his significant systems and operations experience. He was a Director of Scudder, Stevens & Clark (with responsibility for its systems department) and founder and President of Systems Dynamics Corp. (“SDC”) and later Vice President of Bradford Computer & Systems after its acquisition of SDC, (providing record keeping and reporting for investment advisors and mutual funds). He also served as Vice President of Automatic Data Processing (automated services to the brokerage and investment advisory industry) and was the former President and founder of National Investor Data Services, Inc. (a software and computer vendor to the mutual fund industry with fund accounting and transfer agent systems). Mr. Froebel has been determined to qualify as an Audit Committee financial expert for the Trust. The Board believes Mr. Froebel’s experience, qualifications, attributes or skills on an individual basis and in combination with those of the other Trustees lead to the conclusion that he possesses the requisite skills and attributes as a Trustee to carry out oversight responsibilities with respect to the Trust.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

Mr. Paggioli’s Trustee Attributes include his substantial mutual fund and investment advisory experience. Mr. Paggioli is an independent consultant on investment company and investment advisory matters. He has held a number of senior positions with mutual fund and investment advisory organizations and related businesses, including Executive Vice President, Director and Principal of the Wadsworth Group (fund administration, distribution transfer agency and accounting services). He serves on the boards of several investment management companies and advisory firms. He has served on various industry association and self-regulatory committees and formerly worked on the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Mr. Paggioli has been determined to qualify as an Audit Committee financial expert for the Trust. The Board believes Mr. Paggioli’s experience, qualifications, attributes or skills on an individual basis and in combination with those of the other Trustees lead to the conclusion that he possesses the requisite skills and attributes as a Trustee to carry out oversight responsibilities with respect to the Trust.

Trust Committees

The Trust has three standing committees: the Nominating Committee, the Audit Committee, which also serves as the Qualified Legal Compliance Committee (“QLCC”).

The Nominating Committee, comprised of all the Independent Trustees, is responsible for seeking and reviewing candidates for consideration as nominees for Trustees and meets only as necessary. The Nominating Committee will consider nominees nominated by shareholders. Recommendations by shareholders for consideration by the Nominating Committee should be sent to the President of the Trust in writing together with the appropriate biographical information concerning each such proposed Nominee, and such recommendation must comply with the notice provisions set forth in the Trust By-Laws. In general, to comply with such procedures, such nominations, together with all required biographical information, must be delivered to, and received by, the President of the Trust at the principal executive offices of the Trust no later than 120 days and no more than 150 days prior to the shareholder meeting at which any such nominee would be voted on.

The Audit Committee is comprised of all of the Independent Trustees. The Audit Committee generally meets on a quarterly basis with respect to the various series of the Trust and may meet more frequently. The function of the Audit Committee, with respect to each series of the Trust, is to review the scope and results of the audit and any matters bearing on the audit or the Funds’ financial statements and to ensure the integrity of the Funds’ pricing and financial reporting.

The function of the QLCC is to receive reports from an attorney retained by the Trust of evidence of a material violation by the Trust or by any officer, director, employee or agent of the Trust.

Additionally, the Trust’s Board has delegated day-to-day valuation issues to a Valuation Committee that is comprised of the Trust’s Treasurer and Assistant Treasurers and is overseen by the Trustees. The function of the Valuation Committee is to value securities held by any series of the Trust for which current and reliable market quotations are not readily available. Such securities are valued at their respective fair values as determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee, and the actions of the Valuation Committee are subsequently reviewed and ratified by the Board. The Valuation Committee meets as needed.

Accordingly, during the two most recently completed calendar years, neither the Independent Trustees nor members of their immediate family have had a direct or indirect interest during the two most recently completed calendar years, the value of which exceeds $120,000, in the Adviser, the Funds’ principal underwriter or any of its affiliates.

Compensation

Independent Trustees each receive an annual retainer of $85,000 allocated among each of the various portfolios comprising the Trust. The Chairman of the Board receives an additional annual retainer of $15,000 also allocated among each of the various portfolios comprising the Trust. All Trustees receive additional fees from applicable portfolios for any special meetings at rates assessed by the Trustees depending on the length of the meeting and whether in-person attendance is required. All Trustees are reimbursed for expenses in connection with each Board meeting attended, which reimbursement is allocated among applicable portfolios of the Trust. The Trust has no pension or retirement plan. No other entity affiliated with the Trust pays any compensation to the Trustees.

Codes of Ethics

The Trust, the Adviser and the Distributor have each adopted Codes of Ethics under Rule 17j-1 of the 1940 Act. These Codes permit, subject to certain conditions, personnel of these entities to invest in securities that may be purchased or held by a Fund.

PROXY VOTING POLICY

The Board has adopted Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures (the “Policies”) on behalf of the Trust which delegate the responsibility for voting proxies to the Adviser, subject to the Board’s continuing oversight. The Policies require that the Adviser vote proxies received in a manner consistent with the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders. The Policies also require the Adviser to present to the Board, at least annually, the Adviser’s Proxy Policies (as defined below) and a record of each proxy voted by the Adviser on behalf of a Fund, including a report on the resolution of all proxies identified by the Adviser as involving a conflict of interest. The Adviser have also adopted Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures (“Adviser’s Proxy Policies”) which underscore the Adviser’s concern that all proxies voting decisions be made in the best interest of the Funds and that the Adviser will act in a prudent and diligent manner intended to enhance the economic value of the assets of the Funds. The Adviser utilizes the services of Institutional Shareholder Services (“ISS”) to develop proxy voting guidelines and to track and vote proxies.

Although many proxy proposals can be voted in accordance with the Adviser’s Proxy Policies, some proposals will require special consideration, and the Adviser will make a decision on a case-by-case basis in these situations.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

In the event a proxy proposal raises a material conflict between the Adviser’s interests and the Funds’ interests, the Adviser will resolve the conflict as follows:

·	To the extent the matter is specifically covered by the Adviser’s Proxy Policies, ISS will have voted the proxies automatically, or;

To the extent the Adviser are making a case-by-case determination under the proxy voting guidelines, the Adviser will disclose the conflict to the Board and obtain the Board’s consent to vote or direct the matter to an independent third party, selected by the Board, for a vote determination. If the Board’s consent or the independent third party’s determination is not received in a timely manner, the Adviser will either abstain from voting the proxy or allow ISS’ recommendations (if available) to determine the vote.

The Trust will file a Form N-PX, with each Fund’s complete proxy voting record for the 12 months ended June 30, no later than August 31st of each year. Form N-PX for each Fund will be available without charge, upon request, by calling toll-free (xxx) xxx-xxxx and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

CONTROL PERSONS, PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS, AND MANAGEMENT OWNERSHIP

A principal shareholder is any person who owns of record or beneficially 5% or more of the outstanding shares of a Fund. A control person is one who owns beneficially or through controlled companies more than 25% of the voting securities of a Fund or acknowledges the existence of control.

THE FUNDS’ INVESTMENT ADVISER

Investment advisory services are provided to the Funds by Rothschild Asset Management Inc., pursuant an investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) with the Trust. The Adviser’s address is 1251 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10020. As compensation each Fund pays the Adviser the following annual rate:

Fund	Management Fee
U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund	0.55%
U.S. Large-Cap Value Fund	0.55%
U.S. Small/Mid-Cap Core Fund	0.85%
U.S. Small-Cap Core Fund	0.85%
U.S. Small-Cap Value Fund	0.85%
U.S. Small-Cap Growth Fund	0.85%

The Advisory Agreement continues in effect for successive annual periods so long as such continuation is specifically approved at least annually by the vote of (1) the Board (or a majority of the outstanding shares of the applicable Fund), and (2) a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of any party to the Advisory Agreement, in each case, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. The Advisory Agreement may be terminated at any time, without penalty, by either party to the Advisory Agreement upon 60 days’ written notice and is automatically terminated in the event of its “assignment,” as defined in the 1940 Act.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

The Adviser has contractually agreed to reduce fees and/or pay the Funds’ expenses (excluding Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses, interest expense in connection with investment activities, taxes and extraordinary expenses) in order to limit Net Annual Operating Expenses for shares of the Funds’ average net assets (the “Expense Caps”) as follows:

Fund	Institutional	Investor
U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund	0.65%	1.00%
U.S. Large-Cap Value Fund	0.65%	1.00%
U.S. Small/Mid-Cap Core Fund	1.00%	1.35%
U.S. Small-Cap Core Fund	1.00%	1.35%
U.S. Small-Cap Value Fund	1.00%	1.35%
U.S. Small-Cap Growth Fund	0.90%	1.25%

The Expense Caps will remain in effect until at least December 31, 2018, and may continue thereafter for an indefinite period, as determined by the Board. The Adviser is permitted to be reimbursed for fee reductions and/or expense payments made in the prior three fiscal years. Any such reimbursement is subject to the Board’s review and approval. This reimbursement may be requested by the Adviser if the aggregate amount actually paid by a Fund toward operating expenses for such fiscal year (taking into account the reimbursement) does not exceed its Expense Cap.

The portfolio managers’ compensation is comprised of fixed salaries that are determined after considering appropriate industry standards. Their salaries are not based on the performance of the Funds or the Funds’ overall net assets. The portfolio managers receive discretionary bonuses that are not fixed. Their discretionary bonuses are determined by a subjective evaluation of, for example but without limitation to, their contribution to the performance of the Funds and other accounts that they manage, their contributions to the quality of research and investment ideas generated by the Adviser, and the overall financial condition of the Adviser. They also participate in a retirement plan.

Custodian

U.S. Bank National Association is the custodian of the assets of the Funds (the “Custodian”) pursuant to a custody agreement between the Custodian and the Trust, whereby the Custodian provides for fees on a transactional basis plus out-of-pocket expenses. The Custodian’s address is 1555 N. River Center Drive, Suite 302, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53212. The Custodian does not participate in decisions relating to the purchase and sale of securities by the Funds. USBFS, the Custodian, and the Funds’ principal underwriter are affiliated entities under the common control of U.S. Bancorp. The Custodian and its affiliates may participate in revenue sharing arrangements with the service providers of mutual funds in which the Funds may invest.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm and Legal Counsel

Tait, Weller & Baker LLP, 1818 Market Street, Suite 2400, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103, is the independent registered public accounting firm for the Funds.

Paul Hastings LLP, 75 East 55th Street, New York, New York 10022, serves as legal counsel to the Trust.

EXECUTION OF PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

Pursuant to the Advisory Agreements, the Adviser determine which securities are to be purchased and sold by each Fund and which broker-dealers are eligible to execute a Fund’s portfolio transactions. Purchases and sales of equity securities will generally be executed with a broker on an agency basis.

Purchases of portfolio securities for the Funds also may be made directly from issuers or from underwriters. Where possible, purchase and sale transactions will be effected through dealers (including banks) that specialize in the types of securities which a Fund will be holding, unless better executions are available elsewhere. Dealers and underwriters often act as principal for their own accounts. Purchases from underwriters will include a concession paid by the issuer to the underwriter and purchases from dealers usually include a spread between the bid and the asked price. If the execution and price offered by more than one dealer or underwriter are comparable, the order may be allocated to the dealer(s) or underwriter(s) that have provided research or other services as discussed below.

In placing portfolio transactions, the Adviser will seek best execution. The full range and quality of services will be considered in making this determination, such as the size of the order, the difficulty of execution, the operational facilities of the firm involved, the firm’s risk in positioning a block of securities, and other factors. In those instances where it is reasonably determined that more than one broker-dealer can offer the best execution, the Adviser consider such information, which is in addition to and not in lieu of the services required to be performed by it under each Advisory Agreement with the Funds, to be useful in varying degrees, but of indeterminable value. Portfolio transactions may be placed with broker-dealers who sell shares of the Funds subject to rules adopted by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) and the SEC.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

While it is each Adviser’s general policy to seek best execution in selecting a broker-dealer to execute portfolio transactions for the Funds, in accordance with Section 28(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, when it is determined that more than one broker-dealer can deliver best execution, weight is also given to the ability of a broker-dealer to furnish brokerage and research services to a Fund or to the Adviser, even if the specific services are not directly useful to the Fund and may be useful to the Adviser in advising other clients. In negotiating commissions with a broker or evaluating the spread to be paid to a dealer, the Funds may therefore pay a higher commission or spread than would be the case if no weight were given to the furnishing of these supplemental services, provided that the amount of such commission or spread has been determined in good faith by the Adviser to be reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and/or research services provided by such broker-dealer. Additionally, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trust, the Adviser may direct transactions to a broker-dealer with which it has an affiliation.

Investment decisions for a Fund are made independently from those of other client accounts or mutual funds managed or advised by each Adviser. Nevertheless, it is possible that at times identical securities will be acceptable for both a Fund and one or more of such client accounts or mutual funds. In such event, the position of a Fund and such client account(s) or mutual funds in the same issuer may vary and the length of time that each may choose to hold its investment in the same issuer may likewise vary. However, to the extent any of these client accounts or mutual funds seeks to acquire the same security as a Fund at the same time, a Fund may not be able to acquire as large a portion of such security as it desires, or it may have to pay a higher price or obtain a lower yield for such security. Similarly, a Fund may not be able to obtain as high a price for, or as large an execution of, an order to sell any particular security at the same time. If one or more of such client accounts or mutual funds simultaneously purchases or sells the same security that a Fund is purchasing or selling, each day’s transactions in such security will be allocated between such Fund and all such client accounts or mutual funds in a manner deemed equitable by each Adviser, taking into account the respective sizes of the accounts and the amount being purchased or sold. It is recognized that in some cases this system could have a detrimental effect on the price or value of the security insofar as the Funds are concerned. In other cases, however, it is believed that the ability of a Fund to participate in volume transactions may produce better executions for such Fund.

The Funds do not effect securities transactions through brokers in accordance with any formula, nor do they effect securities transactions through brokers for selling shares of the Funds. However, as stated above, broker-dealers who execute brokerage transactions may effect purchase of shares of a Fund for their customers.

CAPITAL STOCK

Shares issued by the Funds have no preemptive, conversion or subscription rights. Shareholders have equal and exclusive rights as to dividends and distributions as declared by the Funds and to the net assets of the Funds upon liquidation or dissolution. The Funds, each a separate series of the Trust, vote separately on matters affecting only the Funds (e.g., approval of the Advisory Agreement); all series of the Trust vote as a single class on matters affecting all series jointly or the Trust as a whole (e.g., election or removal of Trustees). Voting rights are not cumulative, so that the holders of more than 50% of the shares voting in any election of Trustees can, if they so choose, elect all of the Trustees. While the Trust is not required and does not intend to hold annual meetings of shareholders, such meetings may be called by the Trustees in their discretion, or upon demand by the holders of 10% or more of the outstanding shares of the Trust, for the purpose of electing or removing Trustees.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

DETERMINATION OF SHARE PRICE

The NAV per share of a Fund is determined as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) (generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time), each day the NYSE is open for trading. The NYSE annually announces the days on which it will not be open for trading. It is expected that the NYSE will not be open for trading on the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents’ Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.

Generally, a Fund’s investments are valued at market value or, in the absence of a market value, at fair value as determined in good faith by the Trust’s Valuation Committee pursuant to procedures approved by or under the direction of the Board. Pursuant to those procedures, the Valuation Committee considers, among other things: (1) the last sales price on the securities exchange, if any, on which a security is primarily traded; (2) the mean between the bid and asked prices; (3) price quotations from an approved pricing service, and (4) other factors as necessary to determine a fair value under certain circumstances.

Securities primarily traded in the NASDAQ Global Market® for which market quotations are readily available shall be valued using the NASDAQ® Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). If the NOCP is not available, such securities shall be valued at the last sale price on the day of valuation, or if there has been no sale on such day, at the mean between the bid and asked prices. OTC securities which are not traded in the NASDAQ Global Market® shall be valued at the most recent trade price. Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available (including restricted securities which are subject to limitations as to their sale) are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under procedures approved by or under the direction of the Board.

Short-term debt obligations with remaining maturities in excess of 60 days are valued at current market prices, as discussed above. In order to reflect their fair value, short-term securities with 60 days or less remaining to maturity are, unless conditions indicate otherwise, amortized to maturity based on their cost to a Fund if acquired within 60 days of maturity or, if already held by a Fund on the 60th day, based on the value determined on the 61st day.

The securities in a Fund’s portfolio, including ADRs, EDRs and GDRs, which are traded on securities exchanges are valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which such securities are traded, as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued or, lacking any reported sales, at the mean between the last available bid and asked price. Securities that are traded on more than one exchange are valued on the exchange determined by the Adviser to be the primary market.

All other assets of the Funds are valued in such manner as the Board in good faith deems appropriate to reflect their fair value.

ADDITIONAL PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION INFORMATION

The information provided below supplements the information contained in the Funds’ Prospectus regarding the purchase and redemption of Fund shares.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

How to Buy Shares

The public offering price of Fund shares is its NAV. Shares are purchased at the public offering price next determined after USBFS receives your order in proper form as discussed in the Funds’ Prospectus. In order to receive that day’s public offering price, USBFS must receive your order in proper form before the close of regular trading on the NYSE, generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time.

In addition to purchasing shares directly from the Funds, you may purchase shares of the Funds through certain financial intermediaries and their agents that have made arrangements with the Fund and are authorized to buy and sell shares of the Fund (collectively, “Financial Intermediaries”). Financial Intermediaries may have different investment minimum requirements than those outlined in the Prospectus. Additionally, Financial Intermediaries may aggregate multiple customer accounts to accumulate the requisite initial investment minimum. Investors should contact their Financial Intermediary directly for appropriate instructions, as well as information pertaining to accounts and any service or transaction fees that may be charged. If you transmit your order to these Financial Intermediaries before the close of regular trading on the NYSE (generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) on a day that the NYSE is open for business, your order will be priced at a Fund’s NAV next computed after it is received by the Financial Intermediary. Investors should check with their Financial Intermediary to determine if it participates in these arrangements.

The Trust reserves the right in its sole discretion (i) to suspend the continued offering of the Funds’ shares and (ii) to reject purchase orders in whole or in part when in the judgment of the Adviser or the distributor such rejection is in the best interest of the Funds. The Trust has granted limited authority to the Adviser to reduce or waive the minimum for initial and subsequent investments for certain fiduciary accounts or under circumstances where certain economies can be achieved in sales of the Funds’ shares.

Automatic Investment Plan

As discussed in the Prospectus, the Funds provide an Automatic Investment Plan (“AIP”) for the convenience of investors who wish to purchase shares of a Fund on a regular basis. All record keeping and custodial costs of the AIP are paid by the applicable Fund. The market value of a Fund’s shares is subject to fluctuation. Prior to participating in the AIP, the investor should note that the AIP does not assure a profit nor protect against depreciation in declining markets.

How to Sell Shares and Delivery of Redemption Proceeds

You can sell your Fund shares any day the NYSE is open for regular trading. Payments to shareholders for shares of a Fund redeemed directly from the Fund will be made as promptly as possible, but no later than seven days after receipt by USBFS of the written request in proper form, with the appropriate documentation as stated in the Prospectus, except that a Fund may suspend the right of redemption or postpone the date of payment during any period when (a) trading on the NYSE is restricted as determined by the SEC or the NYSE; (b) an emergency exists as determined by the SEC making disposal of portfolio securities or valuation of net assets of a Fund not reasonably practicable; or (c) for such other period as the SEC may permit for the protection of a Fund’s shareholders. Under unusual circumstances, a Fund may suspend redemptions or postpone payment for more than seven days but only as authorized by SEC rules.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

The value of shares on redemption or repurchase may be more or less than the investor's cost, depending upon the market value of a Fund’s portfolio securities at the time of redemption or repurchase.

Telephone and Internet Redemptions

Shareholders with telephone and internet transactions privileges established on their account may redeem Fund shares by telephone or internet. Upon receipt of any instructions or inquiry by telephone or internet from a person claiming to be the shareholder, a Fund or its authorized agent may carry out the instructions and/or respond to the inquiry, consistent with the shareholder’s previously established account service options. For joint accounts, instructions or inquires from either party will be carried out without prior notice to the other account owners. In acting upon telephone instructions, the Funds and their agents use procedures that are reasonably designed to ensure that such instructions are genuine. These include recording all telephone calls, requiring pertinent information about the account and sending written confirmation of each transaction to the registered owner.

USBFS will employ these and other reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine. If USBFS fails to employ reasonable procedures, a Fund and USBFS may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions. If these procedures are followed, however, to the extent permitted by applicable law, neither the Funds nor their agents will be liable for any loss, liability, cost or expense arising out of any redemption request, including any fraudulent or unauthorized request. For additional information, contact USBFS.

During periods of unusual market changes and shareholder activity, you may experience delays in contacting USBFS by telephone. In this event, you may wish to submit a written redemption request, as described in the Prospectus or contact your investment representative. Telephone redemption privileges may be modified or terminated without notice.

Redemptions In-Kind

The Trust has filed an election under SEC Rule 18f-1 committing to pay in cash all redemptions by a shareholder of record up to amounts specified by the rule (in excess of the lesser of (i) $250,000 or (ii) 1% of a Fund’s assets). The Funds have reserved the right to pay the redemption price of their shares in excess of the amounts specified by the rule, either totally or partially, by a distribution-in-kind of portfolio securities (instead of cash). The securities so distributed would be valued at the same amount as that assigned to them in calculating the net asset value for the shares being sold. If a shareholder receives a distribution in-kind, the shareholder could incur brokerage or other charges in converting the securities to cash and would bear any market risks associated with such securities until they are converted into cash. Distributions in-kind are taxable events for shareholders.

Each Fund, like virtually all mutual funds, may from time to time hold a small percentage of securities that are illiquid. In the unlikely event a Fund were to elect to make an in-kind redemption, the Fund expects that it would follow the normal protocol of making such distribution by way of a pro rata distribution based on its entire portfolio. If a Fund held illiquid securities, such distribution may contain a pro rata portion of such illiquid securities or a Fund may determine, based on a materiality assessment, not to include illiquid securities in the in-kind redemption. The Funds do not anticipate that they would ever selectively distribute a greater than pro rata portion of any illiquid securities to satisfy a redemption request. If such securities are included in the distribution, shareholders may not be able to liquidate such securities and may be required to hold such securities indefinitely. Shareholders’ ability to liquidate such securities distributed in-kind may be restricted by resale limitations or substantial restrictions on transfer imposed by the issuers of the securities or by law. Shareholders may only be able to liquidate such securities distributed in-kind at a substantial discount from their value, and there may be higher brokerage costs associated with any subsequent disposition of these securities by the recipient.

DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAX INFORMATION

Distributions

Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net profits from the sale of securities are generally made annually. Also, each Fund expects to distribute any undistributed net investment income on or about December 31 of each year. Any net capital gains realized through the twelve months ended October 31 of each year will also be distributed by December 31 of each year.

In February of each year, the Funds will issue to each shareholder a statement of the federal income tax status of all distributions made during the previous year. The form and character of each distribution will be specified by the Fund in a notice to shareholders.

Tax Information

Each series of the Trust is treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. The Funds have elected and intend to continue to qualify to be treated as “regulated investment companies” under Subchapter M of the Code, provided that they comply with all applicable requirements regarding the source of their income, diversification of its assets and timing and amount of distributions. Each Fund intends to conduct its operations such that it will not be liable for federal income or excise taxes on its taxable income and capital gains distributed to shareholders. It is the Funds’ policy to distribute to their shareholders all of their investment company taxable income and any net realized capital gains for each fiscal year in a manner that complies with the distribution requirements of the Code, so that the Funds will not be subject to any federal income tax or excise taxes based on net income. However, the Funds can give no assurance that their distributions will be sufficient to eliminate all taxes. To avoid the non-deductible 4% excise tax, the Funds must also distribute (or be deemed to have distributed) by December 31 of each calendar year (i) at least 98.0% of their ordinary income for such year, (ii) at least 98.2% of the excess of their realized capital gains over their realized capital losses for the one-year period ending on October 31 during such year and (iii) any amounts from the prior calendar year that were not distributed and on which a Fund has paid no federal income tax.

If a Fund does not qualify as a regulated investment company, it will be taxed as a regular corporation.

In order to qualify as a regulated investment company, each Fund must, among other things, derive at least 90% of its gross income each year from dividends, interest, payments with respect to loans of stock and securities, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock or securities or foreign currency gains related to investments in stock or securities, or other income (generally including gains from options, futures or forward contracts) derived with respect to the business of investing in stock, securities or currency, and net income derived from an interest in a qualified publicly traded partnership. Each Fund must also satisfy the following two asset diversification tests. At the end of each quarter of each taxable year, (i) at least 50% of the value of each Fund’s total assets must be represented by cash and cash items (including receivables), U.S. Government securities, the securities of other regulated investment companies, and other securities, with such other securities being limited in respect of any one issuer to an amount not greater than 5% of the value of each Fund’s total assets and not more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer, and (ii) not more than 25% of the value of the Fund’s total assets may be invested in the securities of any one issuer (other than U.S. Government securities or the securities of other regulated investment companies), the securities of any two or more issuers (other than the securities of other regulated investment companies) that each Fund controls (by owning 20% or more of their outstanding voting stock) and that are determined to be engaged in the same or similar trades or businesses or related trades or businesses, or the securities of one or more qualified publicly traded partnerships. Each Fund must also distribute each taxable year sufficient dividends to its shareholders to claim a dividends paid deduction equal to at least the sum of 90% of the Fund’s investment company taxable income (which generally includes dividends, interest, and the excess of net short-term capital gain over net long-term capital loss) and 90% of the Fund’s net tax-exempt interest, if any.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

A Fund’s ordinary income generally consists of interest and dividend income, less expenses. Net realized capital gains for a fiscal period are computed by taking into account any capital loss carryforward of a Fund.

Distributions of net investment income and net short-term capital gains are taxable to shareholders as ordinary income. A Fund may make taxable distributions to shareholders even during periods in which the share price has declined. For individual shareholders, a portion of the distributions paid by a Fund may be qualified dividends eligible under current law for taxation at long-term capital gain rates to the extent a Fund reports the amount distributed as a qualifying dividend and holding period requirements are met. In the case of corporate shareholders, a portion of the distributions may qualify for the intercorporate dividends-received deduction to the extent a Fund reports the amount distributed as a qualifying dividend. The aggregate amount so reported to either individual or corporate shareholders cannot, however, exceed the aggregate amount of qualifying dividends received by the applicable Fund for its taxable year. The deduction, if any, may be reduced or eliminated if Fund shares held by an individual investor are held less than 61 days, or if Fund shares held by a corporate investor are treated as debt-financed or are held for fewer than 46 days.

The Funds may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on dividends and interest earned with respect to securities of foreign corporations.

Under the Code, a Fund will be required to report to the Internal Revenue Service all distributions of ordinary income and capital gains as well as gross proceeds from the redemption of Fund shares, except in the case of exempt shareholders, which includes most corporations. Pursuant to the backup withholding provisions of the Code, distributions of any taxable income and capital gains and proceeds from the redemption of Fund shares may be subject to withholding of federal income tax (currently 28%) in the case of non-exempt shareholders who fail to furnish a Fund with their taxpayer identification numbers and with required certifications regarding their status under the federal income tax law. If the backup withholding provisions are applicable, any such distributions and proceeds, whether taken in cash or reinvested in additional shares, will be reduced by the amounts required to be withheld. Corporate and other exempt shareholders should provide a Fund with their taxpayer identification numbers or certify their exempt status in order to avoid possible erroneous application of backup withholding. The Funds reserve the right to refuse to open an account for any person failing to certify the person’s taxpayer identification number. Backup withholding is not an additional tax and any amounts withheld may be credited to a taxpayer’s ultimate U.S. federal income tax liability if proper documentation is supplied.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

In addition to the federal income tax, certain individuals, trusts and estates may be subject to a Medicare tax of 3.8%. The Medicare tax is imposed on the lesser of: (i) the taxpayer’s investment income, net of deductions properly allocable to such income, or (ii) the amount by which the taxpayer’s modified adjusted gross income exceeds certain thresholds ($250,000 for married individuals filing jointly, $200,000 for unmarried individuals and $125,000 for married individuals filing separately). Each Fund’s distributions are includable in a shareholder’s investment income for purposes of this Medicare tax. In addition, any capital gain realized by a shareholder upon a sale or redemption of Fund shares is includable in such shareholder’s investment income for purposes of this Medicare tax.

The foregoing discussion of U.S. federal income tax law relates solely to the application of that law to U.S. citizens or residents and U.S. domestic corporations, partnerships, trusts and estates.

Each shareholder who is not a U.S. person should consider the United States and foreign tax consequences of ownership of shares of a Fund, including the possibility that such a shareholder may be subject to a U.S. withholding tax at a rate of 30 percent (or at a lower rate under an applicable income tax treaty) on amounts constituting ordinary income.

The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”)

A 30% withholding tax on your Fund’s distributions, including capital gains distributions, and on gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of shares of a Fund generally applies if paid to a foreign entity unless: (i) if the foreign entity is a “foreign financial institution,” it undertakes certain due diligence, reporting, withholding and certification obligations, (ii) if the foreign entity is not a “foreign financial institution,” it identifies certain of its U.S. investors or (iii) the foreign entity is otherwise excepted under FATCA. Withholding under FATCA is required: (i) with respect to certain distributions from your Fund beginning on July 1, 2014; and (ii) with respect to certain capital gains distributions and gross proceeds from a sale or disposition of Fund shares that occur on or after January 1, 2017. If withholding is required under FATCA on a payment related to your shares, investors that otherwise would not be subject to withholding (or that otherwise would be entitled to a reduced rate of withholding) on such payment generally will be required to seek a refund or credit from the IRS to obtain the benefits of such exemption or reduction. The Funds will not pay any additional amounts in respect to amounts withheld under FATCA. You should consult your tax advisor regarding the effect of FATCA based on your individual circumstances.

In addition, the foregoing discussion of tax law is based on existing provisions of the Code, existing and proposed regulations thereunder, and current administrative rulings and court decisions, all of which are subject to change. Any such changes could affect the validity of this discussion. The Funds do not base their investment decisions primarily on tax considerations. The foregoing discussion also represents only a general summary of tax law and practice currently applicable to the Funds and certain shareholders therein and, as such, is subject to change. In particular, the consequences of an investment in shares of a Fund under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdictions are not discussed herein. The Funds do not plan to seek a ruling from the IRS or an opinion of counsel with respect to any tax matters. Each prospective investor should consult his or her own tax adviser to determine the correct application of tax law and practice in his or her own particular circumstances.

The advice herein was prepared for the Funds. Any person reviewing this discussion should seek advice based on such person’s particular circumstances from an independent tax adviser.

PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER AND DISTRIBUTOR

Quasar Distributors, LLC, 615 East Michigan Street, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202 (“Quasar”), serves as principal underwriter and distributor for shares of the Funds in a continuous public offering of each Fund’s shares. Pursuant to a distribution agreement between each Fund and Quasar, Quasar provides certain administration services and promotes and arranges for the sale of each Fund’s shares. Quasar is registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is a member of FINRA.

The distribution agreement continues in effect for periods not exceeding one year if approved at least annually by (i) the Board or the vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the applicable Fund (as defined in the 1940 Act) and (ii) a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of any such party, in each case cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. The agreement may be terminated without penalty by the parties thereto upon 60 days’ written notice, and is automatically terminated in the event of its assignment as defined in the 1940 Act.

MARKETING AND SUPPORT PAYMENTS

The Adviser, out of their own resources and without additional cost to the Funds or their shareholders, may provide additional cash payments or other compensation to certain financial intermediaries who sell shares of the Funds. Such payments may be divided into categories as follows:

Support Payments

Payments may be made by the Adviser to certain Financial Intermediaries in connection with the eligibility of the Funds to be offered in certain programs and/or in connection with meetings between the Funds’ representatives and Financial Intermediaries and their sales representatives. The Adviser’s may make cash payments to Financial Intermediaries for providing shareholder servicing, marketing and support and/or access to sales meetings, sale representatives and management representatives of the Financial Intermediaries. Such meetings may be held for various purposes, including providing education and training about the Funds and other general financial topics to assist Financial Intermediaries’ sales representatives in making informed recommendations to, and decisions on behalf of, their clients. Cash compensation may also be paid to Financial Intermediaries for inclusion of the Funds on a sales list, including a preferred or select sales list, in other sales programs or as an expense reimbursement in cases where the Financial Intermediary provides shareholder services to the Funds’ shareholders. Each Fund’s Adviser may also pay cash compensation in the form of finder’s fees that vary depending on the Fund and the dollar amount of the shares sold.

Entertainment, Conferences and Events

The Adviser also may pay cash or non-cash compensation to sales representatives of financial intermediaries in the form of (1) occasional gifts; (2) occasional meals, tickets or other entertainment; and/or (3) sponsorship support for the financial intermediary’s client seminars and cooperative advertising. In addition, the Adviser may pay for exhibit space or sponsorships at regional or national events of financial intermediaries.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

The prospect of receiving, or the receipt of additional payments or other compensation as described above by financial intermediaries may provide such intermediaries and/or their salespersons with an incentive to favor sales of shares of the Funds, and other mutual funds whose affiliates make similar compensation available, over sales of shares of mutual funds (or non-mutual fund investments) not making such payments. You may wish to take such payment arrangements into account when considering and evaluating any recommendations relating to mutual funds.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Because the Funds have recently commenced operations, there are no financial statements available at this time. Shareholders of the Funds will be informed of the Funds’ progress through periodic reports when those reports become available. Financial statements certified by the Funds’ independent public accounting firm will be submitted to shareholders at least annually.

APPENDIX A

Commercial Paper Ratings

Standard & Poor’s

A Standard & Poor’s commercial paper rating is a current assessment of the likelihood of timely payment of debt having an original maturity of no more than 365 days. Ratings are graded into several categories, ranging from ‘A’ for the highest-quality obligations to ‘D’ for the lowest. These categories are as follows:

A-1 - This designation indicates that the degree of safety regarding timely payment is strong. Those issues determined to possess extremely strong safety characteristics are denoted with a plus sign (+) designation.

A-2 - Capacity for timely payment on issues with this designation is satisfactory. However, the relative degree of safety is not as high as for issues designated ‘A-1’.

A-3 - Issues carrying this designation have an adequate capacity for timely payment. They are, however, more vulnerable to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances than obligations carrying the higher designations.

B - Issues rated ‘B’ are regarded as having only speculative capacity for timely payment.

C - This rating is assigned to short-term debt obligations with a doubtful capacity for payment.

D – Debt rated ‘D’ is in payment default. The ‘D’ rating category is used when interest payments of principal payments are not made on the date due, even if the applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor’s believes such payments will be made during such grace period.

Moody’s

Moody’s short-term debt ratings are opinions on the ability of issuers to punctually repay senior debt obligations. These obligations have an original maturity not exceeding one year, unless explicitly noted. Moody’s employs the following three designations, all judged to be investment grade to indicate the relative repayment ability of rated issuers:

Prime-1 - Issuers rated Prime-1 (or supporting institutions) have a superior ability for repayment of senior short-term debt obligations. Prime-1 repayment ability will often be evidenced by many of the following characteristics: leading market positions in well-established industries; high rates of return on funds employed; conservative capitalization structure with moderate reliance on debt and ample asset protection; broad margins in earnings coverage of fixed financial charges and high internal cash generation; and well-established access to a range of financial markets and assured sources of alternate liquidity.

Prime-2 - Issuers rated Prime-2 (or supporting institutions) have a strong ability for repayment of senior short-term debt obligations. This will normally be evidenced by many of the characteristics cited above but to a lesser degree. Earnings trends and coverage ratios, while sound, may be more subject to variation. Capitalization characteristics, while still appropriate, may be more affected by external conditions. Ample alternate liquidity is maintained.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

Prime-3 - Issuers rated Prime-3 (or supporting institutions) have an acceptable ability for repayment of senior short-term debt obligations. The effect of industry characteristics and market compositions may be more pronounced. Variability in earnings and profitability may result in changes in the level of debt protection measurements and may require relatively high financial leverage. Adequate alternate liquidity is maintained.

Not Prime - Issuers rated Not Prime do not fall within any of the Prime rating categories.

Credit Ratings

Standard & Poor’s

Standard & Poor’s issue credit ratings based in varying degrees, on the following considerations:

1.	Likelihood of payment – capacity and willingness of the obligor to meet its financial commitment on an obligation in accordance with the terms of the obligation;

2.	Nature of and provisions of the obligation; and

3.	Protection afforded by, and relative position of, the obligation in the event of bankruptcy, reorganization, or other arrangement under the laws of bankruptcy and other laws affecting creditors’ rights.

The issue ratings definitions are expressed in terms of default risk. As such, they pertain to senior obligations of an entity. Junior obligations are typically rated lower than senior obligations, to reflect the lower priority in bankruptcy, as noted above.

AAA - An obligation rated “AAA” has the highest rating assigned by Standard & Poor’s. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is extremely strong.

AA - An obligation rated “AA” differs from the highest rated obligations only in small degree. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is very strong.

A - An obligation rated “A” is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher-rated categories. However, the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is still strong.

BBB - An obligation rated “BBB” exhibits adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

BB, B, CCC, CC, and C - Obligations rated “BB,” “B,” “CCC,” “CC” and “C” are regarded as having significant speculative characteristics. “BB” indicates the least degree of speculation and “C” the highest. While such obligations will likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these may be outweighed by large uncertainties or major exposures to adverse conditions.

BB - An obligation rated “BB” is less vulnerable to nonpayment than other speculative issues. However, it faces major ongoing uncertainties or exposure to adverse business, financial or economic conditions, which could lead to the obligor’s inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

B - An obligation rated “B” is more vulnerable to nonpayment than obligations rated “BB”, but the obligor currently has the capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. Adverse business, financial or economic conditions will likely impair the obligor’s capacity or willingness to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

CCC - An obligation rated “CCC” is currently vulnerable to nonpayment and is dependent upon favorable business, financial and economic conditions for the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. In the event of adverse business, financial, or economic conditions, the obligor is not likely to have the capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

CC - An obligation rated “CC” is currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment.

C - The “C” rating may be used to cover a situation where a bankruptcy petition has been filed or similar action taken, but payments on this obligation are being continued.

D - An obligation rated “D” is in payment default. The “D” rating category is used when payments on an obligation are not made on the date due even if the applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor’s believes that such payments will be made during such grace period. The “D” rating also will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of a similar action if payments on an obligation are jeopardized.

Plus (+) or minus (-)

The ratings from “AA” through “CCC” may be modified by the addition of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories.

“c” - The ‘c’ subscript is used to provide additional information to investors that the bank may terminate its obligation to purchase tendered bonds if the long-term credit rating of the issuer is below an investment-grade level and/or the issuer’s bonds are deemed taxable.

“p” - The letter ‘p’ indicates that the rating is provisional. A provisional rating assumes the successful completion of the project financed by the debt being rated and indicates that payment of debt service requirements is largely or entirely dependent upon the successful, timely completion of the project. This rating, however, while addressing credit quality subsequent to completion of the project, makes no comment on the likelihood of or the risk of default upon failure of such completion. The investor should exercise his own judgment with respect to such likelihood and risk.

* - Continuance of the ratings is contingent upon Standard & Poor’s receipt of an executed copy of the escrow agreement or closing documentation confirming investments and cash flows.

“r”- The ‘r’ highlights derivative, hybrid, and certain other obligations that Standard & Poor’s believes may experience high volatility or high variability in expected returns as a result of noncredit risks. Examples of such obligations are securities with principal or interest return indexed to equities, commodities, or currencies; certain swaps and options; and interest-only and principal-only mortgage securities. The absence of an ‘r’ symbol should not be taken as an indication that an obligation will exhibit no volatility or variability in total return.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

N.R. - Not Rated - Debt obligations of issuers outside the United States and its territories are rated on the same basis as domestic corporate and municipal issues. The ratings measure the creditworthiness of the obligor but do not take into account currency exchange and related uncertainties.

Moody’s

Moody’s uses the following categories for long-term obligations:

Aaa - Bonds that are rated “Aaa” are to be of the best quality. They carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to as “gilt edged.” Interest payments are protected by a large or by an exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure. While the various protective elements are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position of such issues.

Aa - Bonds that are rated “Aa” are judged to be of high quality by all standards. Together with the “Aaa” group they comprise what are generally known as high-grade bonds. They are rated lower than the best bonds because margins of protection may not be as large as in “Aaa” securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude or there may be other elements present which make the long-term risk appear somewhat larger than the “Aaa” securities.

A - Bonds that are rated “A” possess many favorable investment attributes and are to be considered as upper-medium-grade obligations. Factors giving security to principal and interest are considered adequate, but elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility to impairment sometime in the future.

Baa - Bonds that are rated “Baa” are considered medium-grade obligations, i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured. Interest payments and principal security appear adequate for the present but certain protective elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in fact have speculative characteristics as well.

Ba - Bonds that are rated “Ba” are judged to have speculative elements; their future cannot be considered as well assured. Often the protection of interest and principal payments may be very moderate, and thereby not well safeguarded during both good and bad times over the future. Uncertainty of position characterizes bonds in this class.

B - Bonds that are rated “B” generally lack characteristics of the desirable investment. Assurance of interest and principal payments or maintenance of other terms of the contract over any long period of time may be small.

Caa - Bonds that are rated “Caa” are of poor standing. Such issues may be in default or there may be present elements of danger with respect to principal or interest.

Ca - Bonds that are rated “Ca” represent obligations that are speculative in a high degree. Such issues are often in default or have other marked shortcomings.

Table of Contents - Statement of Additional Information

C – Bonds that are rated “C” are the lowest rated class of bonds, and issues so rated can be regarded as having extremely poor prospects of ever attaining any real investment standing.

Municipal Note Ratings

Standard & Poor’s

A Standard and Poor’s note rating reflects the liquidity factors and market access risks unique to notes. Notes due in three years or less will likely receive a note rating. Notes maturing beyond three years will most likely receive a long-term debt rating. The following criteria will be used in making that assessment:

·	Amortization schedule- the larger the final maturity relative to other maturities, the more likely it will be treated as a note; and

·	Source of payment- the more dependent the issue is on the market for its refinancing, the more likely it will be treated as a note.

Note rating symbols are as follows:

SP-1 - Strong capacity to pay principal and interest. An issue determined to possess a very strong capacity to pay debt service are given a plus (+) designation.

SP-2 - Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest, with some vulnerability to adverse financial and economic changes over the term of the notes.

SP-3 - Speculative capacity to pay principal and interest.

In municipal debt issuance, there are three rating categories for short-term obligations that are considered investment grade. These ratings are designated as Moody’s Investment Grade (MIG) and are divided into three levels -- MIG 1 through MIG 3.

In addition, those short-term obligations that are of speculative quality are designated SG, or speculative grade.

In the case of variable rate demand obligations (VRDOs), a two-component rating is assigned. The first element represents Moody’s evaluation of the degree of risk associated with scheduled principal and interest payments. The second element represents Moody’s evaluation of the degree of risk associated with the demand feature, using the MIG rating scale.

The short-term rating assigned to the demand feature of VRDOs is designated as VMIG. When either the long- or short-term aspect of a VRDO is not rated, that piece is designated NR, e.g., Aaa/NR or NR/VMIG 1.

MIG ratings expire at note maturity. By contrast, VMIG rating expirations will be a function of each issue’s specific structural or credit features.

MIG 1/VMIG 1

This designation denotes superior credit quality. Excellent protection is afforded by established cash flows, highly reliable liquidity support, or demonstrated broad-based access to the market for refinancing.

Item 29. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control with Registrant

No person is directly or indirectly controlled by or under common control with the Registrant.

Item 30. Indemnification

Reference is made to Article VII of the Registrant’s Declaration of Trust (previously filed with the Registration Statement on Form N-1A (File No. 33-12213) on December 29, 1995), Article VI of Registrant’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (previously filed with the Registration Statement on Form N-1A (File No. 33-12213) on February 18, 2003), and Paragraph 6 of the Distribution Agreement (previously filed with the Registration Statement on Form N-1A (File No. 33-12213 on June 15, 2009). With respect to the Registrant, the general effect of these provisions is to indemnify any person (Trustee, director, officer, employee or agent, among others) who was or is a party to any proceeding by reason of their actions performed in their official or duly authorized capacity on behalf of the Trust. With respect to the distributor, the general effect of the relevant provisions is to indemnify those entities for claims arising out of any untrue statement or material fact contained in the Funds' Registration Statement, reports to shareholders or advertising and sales literature.

Pursuant to Rule 484 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “1933 Act”) the Registrant furnishes the following undertaking: “Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.”
