Shareholders will be given 60 days’ advance notice of any change to this policy. For these purposes, the Adviser defines midcap companies as those with market capitalizations within the range encompassed by the Russell Midcap Index at the time of purchase. The size of companies in the Russell Midcap Index may change with market conditions. In addition, changes to the composition of the Russell Midcap Index can change the market capitalization range of the companies included in the index. As of June 30, 2013, the market capitalization range of the Russell Midcap Index was between $487 million and $30.3 billion. falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaPrincipal investment strategies of the Fund.

The value of the Fund’s investments will fluctuate with market conditions and interest rates and the value of your investment in the Fund will also vary. You could lose money on your investment in the Fund, or the Fund could underperform other investments. Investments in the Fund are not deposits of Boston Trust Investment Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”) or Boston Trust & Investment Management Company and are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Below are the main risks of investing in the Fund. Market Risk: Market risk refers to the risk related to investments in securities in general and the daily fluctuations in the securities markets. Equity Risk: The value of the equity securities held by the Fund, and thus the value of the Fund’s shares, can fluctuate — at times dramatically. Mid Cap Company Risk: These companies may be subject to greater market risk and fluctuations in value than large capitalization companies and may not correspond to changes in the stock market in general. falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaNarrative Risk Disclosure.
