Expenses Example

The example below is intended to help investors compare the cost of investing in Idaho Tax-Exempt Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The example assumes an investor invests $10,000 in the Idaho Tax-Exempt Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeems all shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that the investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same. Although actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions an investor's costs would be:

1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
$87	$271	$471	$1,049

Portfolio Turnover Rate

During the most recent fiscal year, the Idaho Tax-Exempt Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 3% of the average value of its portfolio. The Fund buys and sells securities through Saturna Brokerage Services, Inc. (SBS), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Saturna Capital.

Principal Investment Strategies

Idaho Tax-Exempt Fund invests in debt securities issued by the State of Idaho and its political subdivisions. These municipal bonds, notes and commercial paper may be in various forms, including general obligation bonds, revenue bonds, mortgage bonds, certificates of participation, local improvement district bonds, and refunding bonds.

At time of purchase, a bond must be rated "A" or equivalent by a national bond rating agency. The Fund may also invest in non-rated bonds if they are of equivalent quality in the opinion of the adviser. Factors used in bond evaluations include such information as the bond district's financial position, population size, employment trends, economic activity and diversification. The portfolio's dollar-weighted average effective maturity is expected to range between 6 and 15 years. Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of assets are invested in debt securities generating income exempt from both federal and Idaho income tax.

Principal Risks of Investing

The value of Fund shares rises and falls as the value of the bonds in which the Fund invests goes up and down. Only consider investing in the Fund if you are willing to accept the risk that you may lose money. Fund share prices, yields, and total returns will change with market fluctuations as well as the fortunes of the industries and municipalities in which the Fund invests.

Idaho Tax-Exempt Fund risks depend primarily on the terms and quality of the obligations in the Fund's portfolio, as well as on market conditions. When interest rates rise, bond prices fall. When interest rates fall, bond prices go up. Bonds with longer maturities, such as those held by the Fund, usually are more sensitive to interest rate changes than bonds with shorter maturities.

The Fund entails credit risk, which is the possibility that a bond will not be able to pay interest or principal when due. If the credit quality of a bond is perceived to decline, investors will demand a higher yield, which means a lower price on that bond to compensate for the higher level of risk. If a security held by the Fund defaults on payment of interest or principal, the Fund's income, ability to preserve capital, and liquidity would all be adversely affected.

Fund investments are susceptible to factors adversely affecting Idaho, such as political, economic and financial trends unique to this relatively small state. Investing only in Idaho bonds means that the Fund's investments are more concentrated than other mutual funds, and relatively few bond price changes may lead to underperformance compared to investments selected in greater number and/or from a wider universe.

Idaho Tax-Exempt Fund

The Fund is vulnerable to income tax rate changes, either at the Idaho or federal level, since part of municipal securities' value is derived from the recipient's ability to exclude interest payments from taxation.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the Idaho Tax-Exempt Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank or investment adviser), the adviser or other companies related to the Fund may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services.

Ask your salesperson or visit your broker-dealer or other financial intermediary's website for more information.
