Example:
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Portfolio with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Portfolio 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 Portfolio’s Operating Expenses remain the same. Although your actual cost may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

Portfolio Turnover
The Portfolio 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 Portfolio shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Portfolio’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio’s turnover was 72% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio is designed to implement a value-oriented investment approach. A “value investor” seeks to select securities that trade for less than the intrinsic value of the issuing company, as measured by fundamental investment considerations such as earnings, book value and dividend paying ability. The Portfolio seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily (i.e., at least 80% of its assets) in a diversified portfolio of equity securities. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented. The Portfolio may invest up to 20% of the total assets of the actively managed portion of the Portfolio in income-producing securities other than common stock, such as preferred stocks or bonds, including those that are convertible into common stock. These income-producing securities may be of any quality or maturity. The Portfolio may also invest in equity securities of mid capitalization issuers. Up to 20% of the total assets of the total Portfolio may also be invested in securities issued by non-U.S. companies. The Portfolio may also invest in other instruments including option or futures contracts, and similar instruments in order to gain market exposure pending investment or to hedge against fluctuations in market price of the securities in which the Portfolio invests.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one investment subadviser (“Specialist Manager”). The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Principal Investment Risks

Investing in the Portfolio involves risks common to any investment in securities. As is the case with any investment, your investment in the Portfolio involves the risk that you may lose money on your investment.

• Credit Risk – Fixed income securities are subject to the risk that the issuing company may fail to make principal and interest payments when due.

• Derivative Risk – The value of derivative instruments may rise or fall more rapidly than other investments, and there is a risk that the Portfolio may lose more than the original amount invested in the derivative instrument. Some derivative instruments also involve the risk that other parties to the derivative contract may fail to meet their obligations, which could cause losses to the Portfolio.

• Equity Market Risk – The market value of an equity security and the equity markets in general can be volatile.

• Foreign Currency Risk – Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar. Currency exchange rates can be volatile and can be affected by, among other factors, the general economics of a country, or the actions of the U.S. or foreign governments or central banks. In addition, transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities.

• Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in securities issued by non-U.S. companies and/or non-U.S. governments and their agencies, may be adversely affected by the lack of timely or reliable financial information, political, social and/or economic developments abroad and differences between U.S. and foreign regulatory requirements and market practices. Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar and transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities.

• Interest Rate Risk – Fixed income securities are subject to the risk that, if interest rates rise, the value of income-producing securities may experience a corresponding decline.

• Management Risk – The risk that investment strategies employed in the investment selection process may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or in overall performance equal to other investments.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

• Mid Cap Risk – These companies may have more limited financial resources, markets and depth of management than larger companies. As of the date of this Prospectus, companies with a market capitalization of between $4.1 billion and $11.5 billion would likely be included in the “mid cap” range.

• Multi-Manager Risk – The risk that the Trust may be unable to (a) identify and retain Specialist Managers who achieve superior investment records relative to other similar investments, (b) pair Specialist Managers that have complementary investment styles, or (c) effectively allocate Portfolio assets among Specialist Managers to enhance the return and reduce the volatility that would typically be expected of any one management style. A multi-manager Portfolio may, under certain circumstances, incur trading costs that might not occur in a Portfolio that is served by a single Specialist Manager.

• Passive Investing Risk – A portion of the Portfolio employs a passive investment approach, which attempts to approximate as closely as practicable, before expenses, the performance of one or more different segments of the Portfolio’s investment universe, as deemed appropriate by the Adviser, regardless of the current or projected performance of a specific security or a particular industry or market sector. Maintaining investments in securities regardless of market conditions or the performance of individual securities could cause the Portfolio’s return to be lower than if the Portfolio employed an active strategy. In addition, the Portfolio’s return may not match or achieve a high degree of correlation with the return of the target investment pool due to operating expenses, transaction costs, and cash flows.

• Value Investing Risk – An investment in the Portfolio cannot assure moderation of investment risk. There is no guarantee that a value stock is, in fact, undervalued, or that the market will ever recognize its true value.

There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will meet its goals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

The chart and table below show how The Value Equity Portfolio has performed, and how its performance has varied, from year to year. The bar chart shows returns on a before-tax basis and gives some indication of risk by showing changes in the Portfolio’s yearly performance for each of the last ten full calendar years. The table accompanying the bar chart compares the Portfolio’s performance over time on a before and after-tax basis to that of a broad based market index. Of course, past performance, before and after taxes, does not indicate how the Portfolio will perform in the future. The HC Advisors Shares is a new class of the Trust for which a full calendar year of performance is not yet available. The performance shown below is that of HC Strategic Shares and has not been adjusted to reflect HC Advisors Shares expenses, which are higher. If it had been, performance would have been lower.

Consistent with their respective investment styles, the Portfolio’s Specialist Managers may use instruments including option or futures contracts and similar instruments in order to pursue their investment objectives, gain market exposure pending investment or to hedge against fluctuations in market price of the securities in which the Portfolio invests. In accordance with applicable interpretations of the SEC, such derivative instruments may be treated as equity securities for purposes of meeting its investment objective, if these instruments have economic characteristics similar to those of equity securities.

• Interest Rate Risk – Fixed income securities are subject to the risk that, if interest rates rise, the value of income-producing securities may experience a corresponding decline.

• Liquidity Risk – At times, certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the price that would normally prevail in the market. The seller may have to lower the price, sell other securities instead or forego an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on Portfolio management or performance. This includes the risk of missing out on an investment opportunity because the assets necessary to take advantage of it are tied up in less advantageous investments.

• Management Risk – The risk that investment strategies employed in the investment selection process may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or in overall performance equal to other investments.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

• Mid Cap Risk – These companies may have more limited financial resources, markets and depth of management than larger companies. As of the date of this Prospectus, companies with a market capitalization of between $4.1 billion and $11.5 billion would likely be included in the "mid cap" range.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio is designed to implement a growth-oriented investment approach. “Growth investing” means that securities acquired for the Portfolio can be expected to have above-average potential for growth in revenue and earnings. The Portfolio seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily (i.e., at least 80% of its assets) in a diversified portfolio of equity securities. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented. The Portfolio may invest up to 20% of the total assets of the actively managed portion of the Portfolio in income-producing securities other than common stock, such as preferred stocks or bonds, including those that are convertible into common stock. These income-producing securities may be of any quality or maturity. The Portfolio may also invest in equity securities of mid capitalization issuers. Up to 20% of the total assets of the total Portfolio may also be invested in securities issued by non-U.S. companies. Although some of the equity securities in which the Portfolio will invest are expected to be dividend paying issues, income is a secondary consideration in the stock selection process. Accordingly, dividends paid by this Portfolio can generally be expected to be lower than those paid by The Value Equity Portfolio. Consistent with their respective investment styles, the Portfolio’s Specialist Managers may use instruments including option or futures contracts and similar instruments in order to gain market exposure pending investment or to hedge against fluctuations in market price of the securities in which the Portfolio invests.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Principal Investment Risks

Investing in the Portfolio involves risks common to any investment in securities. As is the case with any investment, your investment in the Portfolio involves the risk that you may lose money on your investment.

• Credit Risk – Fixed income securities are subject to the risk that the issuing company may fail to make principal and interest payments when due.

• Derivative Risk – The value of derivative instruments may rise or fall more rapidly than other investments, and there is a risk that the Portfolio may lose more than the original amount invested in the derivative instrument. Some derivative instruments also involve the risk that other parties to the derivative contract may fail to meet their obligations, which could cause losses to the Portfolio.

• Equity Market Risk – The market value of an equity security and the equity markets in general can be volatile.

• Foreign Currency Risk – Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar. Currency exchange rates can be volatile and can be affected by, among other factors, the general economics of a country, or the actions of the U.S. or foreign governments or central banks. In addition, transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities.

Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar and transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities.

• Growth Investing Risk – An investment in growth stocks may be susceptible to rapid price swings, especially during periods of economic uncertainty. Growth stocks typically have little or no dividend income to cushion the effect of adverse market conditions. In addition, growth stocks may be particularly volatile in the event of earnings disappointments or other financial difficulties experienced by the issuer.

• Interest Rate Risk – Fixed income securities are subject to the risk that, if interest rates rise, the value of income-producing securities may experience a corresponding decline.

• Management Risk – The risk that investment strategies employed in the investment selection process may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or in overall performance equal to other investments.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

• Passive Investing Risk – A portion of the Portfolio employs a passive investment approach, which attempts to approximate as closely as practicable, before expenses, the performance of one or more different segments of the Portfolio’s investment universe, as deemed appropriate by the Adviser, regardless of the current or projected performance of a specific security or a particular industry or market sector. Maintaining investments in securities regardless of market conditions or the performance of individual securities could cause the Portfolio’s return to be lower than if the Portfolio employed an active strategy.

During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio’s turnover was 85% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio is designed to implement a growth-oriented investment approach. “Growth investing” means that securities acquired for the Portfolio can be expected to have above-average potential for growth in revenue and earnings. The Portfolio seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily (i.e., at least 80% of its assets) in a diversified portfolio of equity securities. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented. The Portfolio may invest up to 20% of the total assets of the actively managed portion of the Portfolio in income-producing securities other than common stock, such as preferred stocks or bonds, including those that are convertible into common stock. These income-producing securities may be of any quality or maturity. The Portfolio may also invest in equity securities of mid capitalization issuers. Up to 20% of the total assets of the total Portfolio may also be invested in securities issued by non-U.S. companies. Although some of the equity securities in which the Portfolio will invest are expected to be dividend paying issues, income is a secondary consideration in the stock selection process. Accordingly, dividends paid by this Portfolio can generally be expected to be lower than those paid by The Institutional Value Equity Portfolio. Consistent with their respective investment styles, the Portfolio’s Specialist Managers may use instruments including option or futures contracts and similar instruments in order to pursue their investment objectives, gain market exposure pending investment or to hedge against fluctuations in market price of the securities in which the Portfolio invests. In accordance with applicable interpretations of the SEC, such derivative instruments may be treated as equity securities for purposes of meeting its investment objective, if these instruments have economic characteristics similar to those of equity securities.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Principal Investment Risks

The principal risks associated with an investment in this Portfolio are:

• Credit Risk – Fixed income securities are subject to the risk that the issuing company may fail to make principal and interest payments when due.

• Derivative Risk – The value of derivative instruments may rise or fall more rapidly than other investments, and there is a risk that the Portfolio may lose more than the original amount invested in the derivative instrument. Some derivative instruments also involve the risk that other parties to the derivative contract may fail to meet their obligations, which could cause losses to the Portfolio.

• Equity Market Risk – The market value of an equity security and the equity markets in general can be volatile.

• Foreign Currency Risk – Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar. Currency exchange rates can be volatile and can be affected by, among other factors, the general economics of a country, or the actions of the U.S. or foreign governments or central banks. In addition, transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities.

• Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in securities issued by non-U.S. companies and/or non-U.S. governments and their agencies, may be adversely affected by the lack of timely or reliable financial information, political, social and/or economic developments abroad and differences between U.S. and foreign regulatory requirements and market practices. Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar and transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities.

• Growth Investing Risk – An investment in growth stocks may be susceptible to rapid price swings, especially during periods of economic uncertainty. Growth stocks typically have little or no dividend income to cushion the effect of adverse market conditions. In addition, growth stocks may be particularly volatile in the event of earnings disappointments or other financial difficulties experienced by the issuer.

• Interest Rate Risk – Fixed income securities are subject to the risk that, if interest rates rise, the value of income-producing securities may experience a corresponding decline.

• Liquidity Risk – At times, certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the price that would normally prevail in the market. The seller may have to lower the price, sell other securities instead or forego an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on Portfolio management or performance. This includes the risk of missing out on an investment opportunity because the assets necessary to take advantage of it are tied up in less advantageous investments.

• Management Risk – The risk that investment strategies employed in the investment selection process may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or in overall performance equal to other investments.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

• Mid Cap Risk – These companies may have more limited financial resources, markets and depth of management than larger companies. As of the date of this Prospectus, companies with a market capitalization of between $4.1 billion and $11.5 billion would likely be included in the “mid cap” range.

• Multi-Manager Risk – The risk that the Trust may be unable to (a) identify and retain Specialist Managers who achieve superior investment records relative to other similar investments, (b) pair Specialist Managers that have complementary investment styles, or (c) effectively allocate Portfolio assets among Specialist Managers to enhance the return and reduce the volatility that would typically be expected of any one management style. A multi-manager Portfolio may, under certain circumstances, incur trading costs that might not occur in a Portfolio that is served by a single Specialist Manager.

• Passive Investing Risk – A portion of the Portfolio employs a passive investment approach, which attempts to approximate as closely as practicable, before expenses, the performance of one or more different segments of the Portfolio’s investment universe, as deemed appropriate by the Adviser, regardless of the current or projected performance of a specific security or a particular industry or market sector. Maintaining investments in securities regardless of market conditions or the performance of individual securities could cause the Portfolio’s return to be lower than if the Portfolio employed an active strategy. In addition, the Portfolio’s return may not match or achieve a high degree of correlation with the return of the target investment pool due to operating expenses, transaction costs, and cash flows.

There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will meet its goals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio invests primarily (i.e., at least 80% of its assets) in a diversified portfolio of equity securities of “small cap” issuers. The Portfolio is designed to invest primarily in equity securities of U.S. issuers which have market capitalizations that are comparable to the capitalization of companies in the Russell 2000® Index at the time of purchase. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented. Up to 20% of the total assets of the total Portfolio may also be invested in securities of “mid cap” issuers. Consistent with its objective the Portfolio will invest in both dividend paying securities and securities that do not pay dividends. Also, consistent with their respective investment styles, the Portfolio’s Specialist Managers may use instruments such as option or futures contracts in order to gain market exposure pending investment or to hedge against fluctuations in market price of the securities in which the Portfolio invests. As of May 31, 2011, the market capitalization range of companies in the Russell 2000® Index was between approximately $130 million and $2.97 billion. Companies with a market capitalization between $4.1 billion and $11.5 billion would likely be included in the “mid cap” range.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

• Multi-Manager Risk – The risk that the Trust may be unable to (a) identify and retain Specialist Managers who achieve superior investment records relative to other similar investments, (b) pair Specialist Managers that have complementary investment styles, or (c) effectively allocate Portfolio assets among Specialist Managers to enhance the return and reduce the volatility that would typically be expected of any one management style. A multi-manager Portfolio may, under certain circumstances, incur trading costs that might not occur in a Portfolio that is served by a single Specialist Manager.

• Mid Cap Risk – These companies may have greater financial resources, markets and depth of management than companies in the small cap universe and may be less likely to experience the rapid growth that small cap investors seek.

• Passive Investing Risk – A portion of the Portfolio employs a passive investment approach, which attempts to approximate as closely as practicable, before expenses, the performance of one or more different segments of the Portfolio’s investment universe, as deemed appropriate by the Adviser, regardless of the current or projected performance of a specific security or a particular industry or market sector.

In addition, the Portfolio’s return may not match or achieve a high degree of correlation with the return of the target investment pool due to operating expenses, transaction costs, and cash flows.

• Small Cap Risk – Small cap companies may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic developments. They may also be less liquid and/or more volatile than securities of larger companies or the market averages in general. Small cap companies may be adversely affected during periods when investors prefer to hold securities of large capitalization companies.

There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will meet its goals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio’s turnover was 80% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily (i.e. at least 80% of its assets) in a portfolio of equity and debt securities issued by U.S. and non-U.S. real estate-related companies, including companies known as real estate investment trusts (REITs) and other real estate operating companies whose value is derived from ownership, development and management of underlying real estate properties. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented. The Portfolio’s permissible investments include equity and equity-related securities of real estate-related companies, including common stock, preferred stock, convertible securities, warrants, options, depositary receipts and other similar equity equivalents. The Portfolio also may invest in equity and equity-related and fixed income securities, including debt securities, mortgage-backed securities and high yield debt. The Portfolio may also invest in companies which are located in emerging markets countries, as well as companies of any market capitalization.

Consistent with its investment style, the Portfolio’s Specialist Manager may use instruments such as option or futures contracts in order to gain market exposure pending investment or to hedge against fluctuations in market price of the securities in which the Portfolio invests.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Principal Investment Risks

Investing in the Portfolio involves risks common to any investment in securities. As is the case with any investment, your investment in the Portfolio involves the risk that you may lose money on your investment.

• Call/Prepayment Risk – When interest rates are declining, issuers of fixed income securities held by the Portfolio may prepay principal earlier than scheduled. As a result of this risk, the Portfolio may have to reinvest these prepayments at those lower rates, thus reducing its income. Mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are especially sensitive to prepayment.

• Credit Risk – An investment in the Portfolio also involves the risk that the issuer of a fixed income security that the Portfolio holds will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal, or go bankrupt, or that the value of the securities will decline because of a market perception that the issuer may not make payments on time. Changes in economic conditions are likely to cause issuers of these securities to be unable to meet their obligations. Credit risk is greater for lower quality or “junk bonds.” In addition, the securities of many U.S. Government agencies, authorities or instrumentalities in which the Portfolio may invest are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government, and may be supported only by the ability of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury or by the credit of the issuer.

• Derivative Risk – The value of derivative instruments may rise or fall more rapidly than other investments, and there is a risk that the Portfolio may lose more than the original amount invested in the derivative instrument. Some derivative instruments also involve the risk that other parties to the derivative contract may fail to meet their obligations, which could cause losses to the Portfolio.

• Emerging Markets Risk – Risks associated with foreign investments may be intensified in the case of investments in emerging market countries, whose political, legal and economic systems are less developed and less stable than those of more developed nations. Such investments are often less liquid and/or more volatile than securities issued by companies located in developed nations, such as the United States, Canada and those included in the MSCI EAFE Index.

• Equity Market Risk – The market value of an equity security and the equity markets in general can be volatile.

• Extension Risk – Fixed income securities held by the Portfolio are subject to the risk that payment on the loans underlying the securities held by the Portfolio will be made more slowly when interest rates are rising. This could cause the market value of the securities to decline.

• Foreign Currency Risk – Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar. Currency exchange rates can be volatile and can be affected by, among other factors, the general economics of a country or the actions of the U.S. or foreign governments or central banks. In addition, transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities.

• Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in securities issued by non-U.S. companies and/or non-U.S. governments and their agencies, may be adversely affected by the lack of timely or reliable financial information, political, social and/or economic developments abroad and differences between U.S. and foreign regulatory requirements and market practices. Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar and transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities. Additionally, risks associated with foreign investments may be intensified in the case of investments in emerging market countries, whose political, legal and economic systems are less developed and less stable than those of more developed nations.

• Interest Rate Risk – One of the risks associated with an investment in the Portfolio is the risk that the value of fixed income securities held in the Portfolio will decline with changes in interest rates. Prices of fixed income securities with longer effective maturities are more sensitive to interest rate changes than those with shorter effective maturities.

• Liquidity Risk – At times, certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the price that would normally prevail in the market. The seller may have to lower the price, sell other securities instead or forego an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on Portfolio management or performance. This includes the risk of missing out on an investment opportunity because the assets necessary to take advantage of it are tied up in less advantageous investments.

• Management Risk – The risk that investment strategies employed in the investment selection process may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or in overall performance equal to other investments.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

• Multi-Manager Risk – The risk that the Trust may be unable to (a) identify and retain Specialist Managers who achieve superior investment records relative to other similar investments, (b) pair Specialist Managers that have complementary investment styles, or (c) effectively allocate Portfolio assets among Specialist Managers to enhance the return and reduce the volatility that would typically be expected of any one management style. A multi-manager Portfolio may, under certain circumstances, incur trading costs that might not occur in a Portfolio that is served by a single Specialist Manager.

• Non-Diversification Risk – The Portfolio is classified as non-diversified for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). This means that, with respect to 50% of its investment portfolio, there is no limit on the percentage of assets that can be invested in a single issuer. Accordingly, an investment in a non-diversified fund may entail greater risk than would otherwise be the case because the potential for a higher percentage of investments among fewer issuers may result in greater fluctuation in the total market value of the Portfolio.

• Real Estate Markets and REIT Risk – Investments in the Portfolio will be closely linked to the performance of the real estate markets. Property values may fall due to increasing vacancies or declining rents resulting from unanticipated economic, legal, cultural or technological developments. REIT prices may also fall because of the failure of borrowers to pay their loans and/or poor management. The value of real estate (and real estate securities) may also be affected by increases in property taxes and changes in tax laws and interest rates. The value of securities of companies that service the real estate industry may also be affected by such risks.

• Sector/Concentration Risk – Because the Portfolio concentrates its investments in real estate securities, it may be subject to greater risks of loss as a result of economic, business or other developments than a fund representing a broader range of industries. The Portfolio may be subject to risks associated with direct ownership of real estate, such as changes in economic conditions, interest rates, availability of mortgage funds, property values, increases in property taxes and operating expenses, increased competition, environmental problems, changes in zoning laws and natural disasters.

• Small/Mid Cap Risk – Many companies in the investable universe are classified as small or mid cap companies. Small and mid-cap companies may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic developments. They may also be less liquid and/or more volatile than securities of larger companies or the market averages in general. Small and mid-cap companies may be adversely affected during periods when investors prefer to hold securities of large capitalization companies.

There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will meet its goals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

Performance Bar Chart and Table

Performance.

The chart and table below show how The Real Estate Securities Portfolio has performed, and how its performance has varied, from year to year. The bar chart shows returns on a before-tax basis and gives some indication of risk by showing changes in the Portfolio’s yearly performance for each full calendar year since the Portfolio’s inception on May 21, 2009. The table accompanying the bar chart compares the Portfolio’s performance over time on a before and after-tax basis to that of a broad based market index. Of course, past performance, before and after taxes, does not indicate how the Portfolio will perform in the future. The HC Advisors Shares is a new class of the Trust for which a full calendar year of performance is not yet available. The performance shown below is that of HC Strategic Shares and has not been adjusted to reflect HC Advisors Shares expenses, which are higher. If it had been, performance would have been lower.

Portfolio Turnover
The Portfolio 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 Portfolio shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Portfolio’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio’s turnover was 80% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio seeks to achieve its objective by investing in a portfolio of commodity-related investments including securities issued by companies in commodity-related industries, commodity-linked structured notes (derivative debt instruments with principal and/or coupon payments linked to the performance of commodity indices) and other similar derivative instruments, investment vehicles that invest in commodities and commodity-related instruments. Securities of companies in commodities-related industries may include common stocks, depositary receipts, preferred securities, rights to subscribe for or purchase any such securities, warrants, convertible securities and other equity and commodity-linked securities issued by such companies. For this purpose, commodities are assets that have tangible properties, such as oil, metal and agricultural products. Commodity-related industries include, but are not limited to: (i) those directly engaged in the production of commodities, such as minerals, metals, agricultural commodities, chemicals, pulp and paper, building materials, oil and gas, other energy or natural resources, and (ii) companies that provide services to commodity producers. The Portfolio considers a company to be in a commodity-related industry if, as determined by the relevant Specialist Manager, at least 50% of the company’s assets, revenues or net income are derived from, or related to, such activities. The Portfolio may invest without limitation in foreign securities, including securities issued by companies in emerging markets. The Portfolio also intends to gain exposure to commodity markets by investing a portion of its assets in two wholly-owned subsidiaries organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Subsidiaries”). The Subsidiaries may invest without limitation in commodity-linked derivative instruments, such as swaps, futures and options. The Subsidiaries may also invest in debt securities, some of which are intended to serve as margin or collateral for the Subsidiaries’ derivatives positions, and other investment vehicles that invest in commodities and commodity-related instruments. The Subsidiaries are managed by the same Specialist Managers that advise the Portfolio.

The Portfolio may invest in equity and fixed income securities and may invest in companies of any market capitalization.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that the Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Principal Investment Risks

Investing in the Portfolio involves risks common to any investment in securities. As is the case with any investment, your investment in the Portfolio involves the risk that you may lose money on your investment.

• Commodity-Related Securities Risk – The securities of companies in commodity-related industries may underperform the stock market as a whole. The stock prices of such companies may also experience greater price volatility than other types of common stocks. Securities issued by companies in commodity-related industries are sensitive to changes in the supply and demand for, and thus the prices of, commodities. Additionally, the values of securities issued by commodity-related companies may be affected by factors affecting a particular industry or commodity.

• Commodity-Related Investment Risk – Exposure to the commodities markets may subject the Fund to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. The value of commodity-linked derivative instruments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, commodity index volatility, interest rate changes or events affecting a particular commodity or industry, such as political instability or conflict, international economic and regulatory developments, embargoes and tariffs, and drought, floods and other weather-related events.

• Counterparty Risk – The Portfolio will be subject to credit risk with respect to derivative contracts entered into by the Portfolio or held by special purpose or structured vehicles in which the Portfolio invests. If a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations due to financial difficulties, the Portfolio may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery in a bankruptcy or other reorganization proceeding. The Portfolio may obtain only a limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances.

• Credit Risk – An investment in the Portfolio also involves the risk that the issuer of a fixed income security that the Portfolio holds or the other party to an over the counter transaction will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal, or go bankrupt, or that the value of the securities will decline because of a market perception that the issuer may not make payments on time. Changes in economic conditions are likely to cause issuers of these securities to be unable to meet their obligations. Credit risk is greater for lower quality or “junk bonds” and foreign bonds.

• Derivative Risk – The value of derivative instruments may rise or fall more rapidly than other investments and there is a risk that the Portfolio may lose more than the original amount invested in the derivative instrument. Some derivative instruments also involve the risk that other parties to the derivative contract may fail to meet their obligations, which could cause losses to the Portfolio. Additionally, investments in commodity-linked derivatives may be subject to special risks that do not apply to all derivatives transactions. The value of a commodity-linked derivative investment is generally based on the price movements of a physical commodity. Accordingly, these investments are subject to markets risks that relate to the movement of prices in the commodities markets, which may be speculative. Also, a liquid secondary market may not exist for the types of commodity-linked derivative instruments that Portfolio buys, which may make it difficult for the Portfolio to sell them at an acceptable price.

• Emerging Markets Risk – Risks associated with foreign investments may be intensified in the case of investments in emerging market countries, whose political, legal and economic systems are less developed and less stable than those of more developed nations. Such investments are often less liquid and/or more volatile than securities issued by companies located in developed nations, such as the United States, Canada and those included in the MSCI EAFE Index.

• Equity Market Risk – The market value of an equity security and the equity markets in general can be volatile.

• Foreign Currency Risk – Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar. Currency exchange rates can be volatile and can be affected by, among other factors, the general economics of a country, or the actions of the U.S. or foreign governments or central banks. In addition, transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities.

• Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in securities issued by non-U.S. companies and/or non-U.S. governments and their agencies, may be adversely affected by the lack of timely or reliable financial information, political, social and/or economic developments abroad and differences between U.S. and foreign regulatory requirements and market practices. Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar and transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities. Additionally, risks associated with foreign investments may be intensified in the case of investments in emerging market countries, whose political, legal and economic systems are less developed and less stable than those of more developed nations.

• Industry Concentration Risk – The Portfolio is expected to be concentrated in commodity-related industries. The focus of the Portfolio on a specific group of related industries my present more risks than if the Portfolio were more broadly diversified over numerous unrelated industries. A downturn in commodity-related industries would have a larger impact on the Portfolio than on an investment company that does not concentrate in such industries. At times, the performance of the Portfolio’s investments in commodity-related industries may lag the performance of other industries or the broader market as a whole.

• Interest Rate Risk – One of the risks associated with an investment in the Portfolio is the risk that the value of fixed income securities held in the Portfolio will decline with changes in interest rates. Prices of fixed income securities with longer effective maturities are more sensitive to interest rate changes than those with shorter effective maturities.

• Leveraging Risk – The Portfolio has the risk that certain transactions of the Portfolio, such as reverse repurchase agreements, loans of portfolio securities, and the use of when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment transactions, or derivative instruments, may give rise to leverage, causing the Portfolio to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged.

• Liquidity Risk – At times, certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the price that would normally prevail in the market. The seller may have to lower the price, sell other securities instead or forego an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on Portfolio management or performance. This includes the risk of missing out on an investment opportunity because the assets necessary to take advantage of it are tied up in less advantageous investments.

• Management Risk – Investment strategies employed in the investment selection process may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or in overall performance equal to other investments.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions, or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

• Multi-Manager Risk – The risk that the Trust may be unable to (a) identify and retain Specialist Managers who achieve superior investment records relative to other similar investments, (b) pair Specialist Managers that have complementary investment styles, or (c) effectively allocate Portfolio assets among Specialist Managers to enhance the return and reduce the volatility that would typically be expected of any one management style. A multi-manager Portfolio may, under certain circumstances, incur trading costs that might not occur in a Portfolio that is served by a single Specialist Manager.

• Non-Diversification Risk – The Portfolio is classified as non-diversified for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). This means that, with respect to 50% of its investment portfolio, there is no limit on the percentage of assets that can be invested in a single issuer. Accordingly, an investment in a non-diversified fund may entail greater risk than would otherwise be the case because the potential for a higher percentage of investments among fewer issuers may result in greater fluctuation in the total market value of the Portfolio.

• Non-Investment Grade Securities Risk – Non-investment grade securities are considered speculative under traditional investment standards. Prices of these securities will rise and fall primarily in response to changes in the issuer’s financial health, although changes in market interest rates also will affect prices. Such securities may also experience reduced liquidity, and sudden and substantial decreases in price, during certain market conditions.

• Small/Mid Cap Risk – Many companies in the investable universe are classified as small or mid cap companies. Small and mid-cap companies may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic developments. They may also be less liquid and/or more volatile than securities of larger companies or the market averages in general. Small and mid-cap companies may be adversely affected during periods when investors prefer to hold securities of large capitalization companies.

• Subsidiary Risk – The commodity-related instruments held by the Subsidiaries are subject to the same risks that apply to similar investments if held directly by the Portfolio (see “Commodities Related Investment Risk” above). The Subsidiaries are not registered under the Investment Company Act and are not subject to all of the requirements and protections of that Act. However, the Portfolio wholly owns and controls the Subsidiaries, and the Board of Trustees has responsibility for overseeing the investment activities of the Portfolio, including its investment in the Subsidiaries. Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands could adversely affect the Subsidiaries and/or the Portfolio.

• Tax Risk – The Portfolio has the risk that the tax treatment of swap agreements and other derivative instruments, such as commodity-linked derivative instruments, including commodity index-linked notes, swap agreements, commodity options, futures, and options on futures, may be affected by future regulatory or legislative changes that could affect the character, timing and/or amount of the Portfolio’s taxable income or gains and distributions.

There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will meet its goals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio invests primarily (i.e., at least 80% of its assets) in a diversified portfolio of equity securities of issuers located in non-U.S. countries. Although the Portfolio may invest anywhere in the world, the Portfolio is expected to invest primarily in the equity markets included in the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia and Far East Index (“MSCI EAFE Index”). In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Such investments are often less liquid and/or more volatile than securities issued by companies located in developed nations, such as the United States, Canada and those included in the MSCI EAFE Index. Certain types of securities, including emerging market securities, are subject to the risk that the securities may not be sold at the quoted market price within a reasonable period of time.

• Equity Market Risk – The market value of an equity security and the equity markets in general can be volatile.

• Foreign Currency Risk – Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar. Currency exchange rates can be volatile and can be affected by, among other factors, the general economics of a country or the actions of the U.S. or foreign governments or central banks. In addition, transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities.

• Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in securities issued by non-U.S. companies and/or non-U.S. governments and their agencies, may be adversely affected by the lack of timely or reliable financial information, political, social and/or economic developments abroad and differences between U.S. and foreign regulatory requirements and market practices.

A multi-manager Portfolio may, under certain circumstances, incur trading costs that might not occur in a Portfolio that is served by a single Specialist Manager.

• Passive Investing Risk – A portion of the Portfolio employs a passive investment approach, which attempts to approximate as closely as practicable, before expenses, the performance of one or more different segments of the Portfolio’s investment universe, as deemed appropriate by the Adviser, regardless of the current or projected performance of a specific security or a particular industry or market sector. Maintaining investments in securities regardless of market conditions or the performance of individual securities could cause the Portfolio’s return to be lower than if the Portfolio employed an active strategy. In addition, the Portfolio’s return may not match or achieve a high degree of correlation with the return of the target investment pool due to operating expenses, transaction costs, and cash flows.

There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will meet its goals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

• Emerging Markets Risk – Risks associated with foreign investments may be intensified in the case of investments in emerging market countries, whose political, legal and economic systems are less developed and less stable than those of more developed nations. Such investments are often less liquid and/or more volatile than securities issued by companies located in developed nations, such as the United States, Canada and those included in the MSCI EAFE Index.

• Equity Market Risk – The market value of an equity security and the equity markets in general can be volatile.

• Foreign Currency Risk – Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar. Currency exchange rates can be volatile and can be affected by, among other factors, the general economics of a country or the actions of the U.S. or foreign governments or central banks. In addition, transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities.

• Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in securities issued by non-U.S. companies and/or non-U.S. governments and their agencies, may be adversely affected by the lack of timely or reliable financial information, political, social and/or economic developments abroad and differences between U.S. and foreign regulatory requirements and market practices. Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar and transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities. Additionally, risks associated with foreign investments may be intensified in the case of investments in emerging market countries, whose political, legal and economic systems are less developed and less stable than those of more developed nations.

• Management Risk – The risk that investment strategies employed in the investment selection process may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or in overall performance equal to other investments.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

• Multi-Manager Risk – The risk that the Trust may be unable to (a) identify and retain Specialist Managers who achieve superior investment records relative to other similar investments, (b) pair Specialist Managers that have complementary investment styles, or (c) effectively allocate Portfolio assets among Specialist Managers to enhance the return and reduce the volatility that would typically be expected of any one management style. A multi-manager Portfolio may, under certain circumstances, incur trading costs that might not occur in a Portfolio that is served by a single Specialist Manager.

• Passive Investing Risk – A portion of the Portfolio employs a passive investment approach, which attempts to approximate as closely as practicable, before expenses, the performance of one or more different segments of the Portfolio’s investment universe, as deemed appropriate by the Adviser, regardless of the current or projected performance of a specific security or a particular industry or market sector. Maintaining investments in securities regardless of market conditions or the performance of individual securities could cause the Portfolio’s return to be lower than if the Portfolio employed an active strategy. In addition, the Portfolio’s return may not match or achieve a high degree of correlation with the return of the target investment pool due to operating expenses, transaction costs, and cash flows.

There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will meet its goals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

Portfolio Turnover
The Portfolio 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 Portfolio shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Portfolio’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio’s turnover was 62% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily (i.e., at least 80% of its assets) in a diversified portfolio of securities issued by companies domiciled or, in the view of the Specialist Manager, deemed to be doing material amounts of business in countries determined by the Specialist Manager to have a developing or emerging economy or securities market. Typically 80% of the Portfolio’s assets will be invested in equity securities, equity swaps, structured equity notes, equity linked notes and depositary receipts concentrated in emerging market countries. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented. The Portfolio invests primarily in the Morgan Stanley Capital International® Emerging Market Index (“MSCI EM Index”) countries. As the MSCI EM Index introduces new emerging market countries, the Portfolio may include those countries among the countries in which it may invest. In determining securities in which to invest, the Portfolio’s management team will evaluate the countries’ economic and political climates with prospects for sustained macro and micro economic growth. The Portfolio’s management team will take into account traditional securities valuation methods, including (but not limited to) an analysis of price in relation to assets, earnings, cash flows, projected earnings growth, inflation and interest rates. Liquidity and transaction costs will also be considered. The Portfolio may also invest in companies of any market capitalization.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Principal Investment Risks

Investing in the Portfolio involves risks common to any investment in securities. As is the case with any investment, your investment in the Portfolio involves the risk that you may lose money on your investment.

• Derivative Risk – The value of derivative instruments may rise or fall more rapidly than other investments, and there is a risk that the Portfolio may lose more than the original amount invested in the derivative instrument. Some derivative instruments also involve the risk that other parties to the derivative contract may fail to meet their obligations, which could cause losses to the Portfolio.

• Emerging Markets Risk – Risks associated with foreign investments may be intensified in the case of investments in emerging market countries, whose political, legal and economic systems are less developed and less stable than those of more developed nations. Such investments are often less liquid and/or more volatile than securities issued by companies located in developed nations, such as the United States, Canada and those included in the MSCI EAFE Index. Certain types of securities, including emerging market securities, are subject to the risk that the securities may not be sold at the quoted market price within a reasonable period of time.

• Equity Market Risk – The market value of an equity security and the equity markets in general can be volatile.

• Foreign Currency Risk – Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar. Currency exchange rates can be volatile and can be affected by, among other factors, the general economics of a country or the actions of the U.S. or foreign governments or central banks. In addition, transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities.

• Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in securities issued by non-U.S. companies and/or non-U.S. governments and their agencies, may be adversely affected by the lack of timely or reliable financial information, political, social and/or economic developments abroad and differences between U.S. and foreign regulatory requirements and market practices.

Additionally, risks associated with foreign investments may be intensified in the case of investments in emerging market countries, whose political, legal and economic systems are less developed and less stable than those of more developed nations.

• Management Risk – The risk that investment strategies employed in the investment selection process may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or in overall performance equal to other investments.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

• Multi-Manager Risk – The risk that the Trust may be unable to (a) identify and retain Specialist Managers who achieve superior investment records relative to other similar investments, (b) pair Specialist Managers that have complementary investment styles, or (c) effectively allocate Portfolio assets among Specialist Managers to enhance the return and reduce the volatility that would typically be expected of any one management style. A multi-manager Portfolio may, under certain circumstances, incur trading costs that might not occur in a Portfolio that is served by a single Specialist Manager.

• Small Cap Risk – Small cap companies may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic developments. They may also be less liquid and/or more volatile than securities of larger companies or the market averages in general. Small cap companies may be adversely affected during periods when investors prefer to hold securities of large capitalization companies.

There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will meet its goals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio’s turnover was 684% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio invests primarily (e.g. at least 80% of its assets) in a diversified portfolio of fixed income securities. The Portfolio, under normal circumstances, will invest at least 80% of its assets in fixed income securities that, at the time of purchase, are rated in one of four highest rating categories assigned by one of the major independent rating agencies or are, in the view of the Specialist Manager, deemed to be of comparable quality. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented. Securities in the fourth highest rating category may have speculative characteristics. From time to time, a substantial portion of the Portfolio may be invested in any of the following: (1) investment grade mortgage-backed or asset-backed securities; (2) securities issues or fully guaranteed by the U.S. Government, Federal Agencies, or sponsored agencies; (3) investment grade fixed income securities issued by U.S. corporations; or (4) municipal bonds (i.e., debt securities issued by municipalities and related entities). Under normal conditions, the Portfolio may invest up to 20% of its assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”) and up to 20% of its assets in cash or money market instruments in order to maintain liquidity, or in the event that the Specialist Manager determines that securities meeting the Portfolio’s investment objective and policies are not otherwise readily available for purchase. Consistent with its investment policies, the Portfolio may purchase and sell securities without regard to the effect on portfolio turnover. The Portfolio has historically had significant portfolio turnover (e.g., over 200% annually), and it is anticipated that such portfolio turnover will continue in the future. High portfolio turnover will cause the Portfolio to incur additional transaction costs; higher transaction costs will reduce total return. High portfolio turnover also is likely to generate short-term capital gains, which, once distributed, is taxed to the shareholder as ordinary income. Securities purchased for the Portfolio will have varying maturities, but under normal circumstances the Portfolio will have an effective dollar weighted average portfolio maturity of between five and ten years. The Portfolio may engage in transactions involving “derivative instruments” both in order to hedge against fluctuations in the market value of the securities in which the Portfolio invests and to achieve market exposure pending investment and, in the case of asset-backed and similar securities, for investment purposes.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Principal Investment Risks

Investing in the Portfolio involves risks common to any investment in securities. As is the case with any investment, your investment in the Portfolio involves the risk that you may lose money on your investment.

• Asset-Backed Security Risk – The market value and yield of asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities can vary due to market interest rate fluctuations and early prepayments of underlying instruments. Although these securities may offer yields higher than those available from other types of securities, these securities may be less effective than other types of securities as a means of “locking in” attractive long-term rates because of the prepayment feature.

• Call/Prepayment Risk – When interest rates are declining, issuers of securities held by the Portfolio may prepay principal earlier than scheduled. As a result of this risk, the Portfolio may have to reinvest these prepayments at those lower rates, thus reducing its income. Mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are especially sensitive to prepayment.

• Credit Risk – An investment in the Portfolio also involves the risk that the issuer of a fixed income security that the Portfolio holds will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal, or go bankrupt, or that the value of the securities will decline because of a market perception that the issuer may not make payments on time. Changes in economic conditions are likely to cause issuers of these securities to be unable to meet their obligations. In addition, the securities of many U.S. Government agencies, authorities or instrumentalities in which the Portfolio may invest are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government, and may be supported only by the ability of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury or by the credit of the issuer.

• Derivative Risk – The value of derivative instruments may rise or fall more rapidly than other investments, and there is a risk that the Portfolio may lose more than the original amount invested in the derivative instrument. Some derivative instruments also involve the risk that other parties to the derivative contract may fail to meet their obligations, which could cause losses to the Portfolio.

• Extension Risk – These securities are also subject to the risk that payment on the loans underlying the securities held by the Portfolio will be made more slowly when interest rates are rising. This could cause the market value of the securities to decline.

• High Yield Bond Risk – Up to 20% of the Portfolio’s assets may be invested in these securities. High yield bonds are considered speculative under traditional investment standards. The prices of these securities will rise and fall primarily in response to changes in the issuer’s financial health. Change in market interest rates will also affect prices. High yield bonds may also experience reduced liquidity, and sudden and substantial decreases in price, during certain market conditions.

• Interest Rate Risk – One of the primary risks associated with an investment in the Portfolio is the risk that the value of fixed income securities held in the Portfolio will decline with changes in interest rates. Prices of fixed income securities with longer effective maturities are more sensitive to interest rate changes than those with shorter effective maturities. Accordingly, the yield of the Portfolio can be expected to be somewhat more volatile in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term investment vehicles.

• Liquidity Risk – At times, certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the price that would normally prevail in the market. The seller may have to lower the price, sell other securities instead or forego an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on Portfolio management or performance. This includes the risk of missing out on an investment opportunity because the assets necessary to take advantage of it are tied up in less advantageous investments.

• Management Risk – The risk that investment strategies employed in the investment selection process may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or in overall performance equal to other investments.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will meet its goals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio’s turnover was 157% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies

Under normal circumstances, the portfolio invests primarily (i.e., at least 80% of assets) in a portfolio of fixed income securities. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented. A principal investment strategy of the Portfolio is to invest in high yield securities including “junk bonds”. Under normal circumstances, at least 50% of the Portfolio’s assets will be invested in junk bonds. These securities are fixed income securities that are rated below the fourth highest category assigned by one of the major independent rating agencies or are, in the view of the Specialist Manager, deemed to be of comparable quality. Such securities may include: corporate bonds, collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), collateralized bond obligations (CBOs) and collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) (expected to be limited to less than 15% of the Portfolio), agency and non-agency mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, commercial mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities, REITs, foreign fixed income securities, including emerging market debt, convertible bonds, preferred stocks, treasury inflation bonds, loan participations, swaps and fixed and floating rate loans.

The Portfolio may invest in U.S. government securities, including but not limited to treasuries, agencies and commercial paper. The Portfolio may also hold a portion of its assets in cash or money market instruments in order to maintain liquidity or in the event that the Specialist Manager determines that securities meeting the Portfolio’s investment objective and policies are not otherwise readily available for purchase.

Consistent with its investment policies, the Portfolio may purchase and sell high yield securities. Purchases and sales of securities may be effected without regard to the effect on portfolio turnover. Securities purchased for the Portfolio will have varying maturities, but, under normal circumstances, the Portfolio will have an effective dollar weighted average portfolio maturity of between 5 and 10 years. The Portfolio may engage in transactions involving “derivative instruments” both in order to hedge against fluctuations in the market value of the securities in which the Portfolio invests and to achieve market exposure pending investment.

The performance benchmark for this Portfolio is the Barclays Capital U.S. High Yield Ba/B 2% Issuer Capped Index, an unmanaged index of high yield securities that is widely recognized as an indicator of the performance of such securities. The Specialist Managers actively manage the interest rate risk of the Portfolio relative to this benchmark.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Principal Investment Risks

• Call/Prepayment Risk – When interest rates are declining, issuers of securities held by the Portfolio may prepay principal earlier than scheduled. As a result of this risk, the Portfolio may have to reinvest these prepayments at those lower rates, thus reducing its income. Mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are especially sensitive to prepayment.

• Credit Risk – An investment in the Portfolio also involves the risk that the issuer of a fixed income security will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal, or go bankrupt, or that the value of the security will decline because of a market perception that the issuer may not make payments on time. Changes in economic conditions are likely to cause issuers of these securities to be unable to meet their obligations. Credit risk is greater for lower quality or “junk bonds.” In addition, the securities of many U.S. Government agencies, authorities or instrumentalities in which the Portfolio may invest are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government, and may be supported only by the ability of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury or by the credit of the issuer.

• Derivative Risk – The value of derivative instruments may rise or fall more rapidly than other investments, and there is a risk that the Portfolio may lose more than the original amount invested in the derivative instrument. Some derivative instruments also involve the risk that other parties to the derivative contract may fail to meet their obligations, which could cause losses to the Portfolio.

• Emerging Markets Risk – Risks associated with foreign investments may be intensified in the case of investments in emerging market countries, whose political, legal and economic systems are less developed and less stable than those of more developed nations. Such investments are often less liquid and/or more volatile than securities issued by companies located in developed nations, such as the United States, Canada and those included in the MSCI EAFE Index. Certain types of securities, including emerging market securities, are subject to the risk that the securities may not be sold at the quoted market price within a reasonable period of time.

• Extension Risk – These securities are also subject to the risk that payment on the loans underlying the securities held by the Portfolio will be made more slowly when interest rates are rising. This could cause the market value of the securities to decline.

• Floating Rate Loans Risk – The risks associated with floating rate loans are similar to the risks of below investment grade securities. Changes in economic conditions are likely to cause issuers of these securities to be unable to meet their obligations. In addition, the value of the collateral securing the loan may decline, causing a loan to be substantially unsecured. The sale and purchase of a bank loan are subject to the requirements of the underlying credit agreement governing such bank loan. These requirements may limit the eligible pool of potential bank loan holders by placing conditions or restrictions on sales and purchases of bank loans. Further, bank loans are not traded on an exchange and purchasers and sellers of bank loans rely on market makers, usually the administrative agent for a particular bank loan, to trade bank loans. These factors, in addition to overall market volatility, may negatively impact the liquidity of loans. Difficulty in selling a floating rate loan may result in a loss. Borrowers may pay back principal before the scheduled due date when interest rates decline, which may require the Portfolio to replace a particular loan with a lower-yielding security. There may be less extensive public information available with respect to loans than for rated, registered or exchange listed securities. The Portfolio may assume the credit risk of the primary lender in addition to the borrower, and investments in loan assignments may involve the risks of being a lender.

• Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in securities issued by non-U.S. companies and/or non-U.S. governments and their agencies, may be adversely affected by the lack of timely or reliable financial information, political, social and/or economic developments abroad and differences between U.S. and foreign regulatory requirements and market practices. Securities denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that the value of the foreign currency will decline in relation to the U.S. dollar and transaction expenses related to foreign securities, including custody fees, are generally more costly than transaction expenses for domestic securities. Additionally, risks associated with foreign investments may be intensified in the case of investments in emerging market countries, whose political, legal and economic systems are less developed and less stable than those of more developed nations.

• High Yield Bond Risk – High yield bonds are considered speculative under traditional investment standards. Prices of these securities will rise and fall primarily in response to changes in the issuer’s financial health, although changes in market interest rates also will affect prices. High yield bonds may also experience reduced liquidity, and sudden and substantial decreases in price, during certain market conditions.

• Interest Rate Risk – One of the primary risks associated with an investment in the Portfolio is the risk that the value of fixed income securities held in the Portfolio will decline with changes in interest rates. Prices of fixed income securities with longer effective maturities are more sensitive to interest rate changes than those with shorter effective maturities. Accordingly, the yield of the Portfolio can be expected to be somewhat more volatile in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term investment vehicles.

• Liquidity Risk – At times, certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the price that would normally prevail in the market. The seller may have to lower the price, sell other securities instead or forego an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on Portfolio management or performance. This includes the risk of missing out on an investment opportunity because the assets necessary to take advantage of it are tied up in less advantageous investments.

• Loan Participation Risk – Loan participations typically will result in a Portfolio having a contractual relationship only with the lender, not with the borrower. In connection with purchasing loan participations, a Portfolio generally will have no right to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement relating to the loan, nor any rights of set-off against the borrower, and a Portfolio may not benefit directly from any collateral supporting the loan in which it has purchased the participation. As a result, a Portfolio will assume the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the participation. A Portfolio may have difficulty disposing of loan participations as the market for such instruments is not highly liquid.

• Management Risk – The risk that investment strategies employed in the investment selection process may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or in overall performance equal to other investments.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

• Multi-Manager Risk – The risk that the Trust may be unable to (a) identify and retain Specialist Managers who achieve superior investment records relative to other similar investments, (b) pair Specialist Managers that have complementary investment styles, or (c) effectively allocate Portfolio assets among Specialist Managers to enhance the return and reduce the volatility that would typically be expected of any one management style. A multi-manager Portfolio may, under certain circumstances, incur trading costs that might not occur in a Portfolio that is served by a single Specialist Manager.

There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will meet its goals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

Performance Bar Chart and Table

Performance.

The chart and table below show how The Fixed Income Opportunity Portfolio has performed, and how its performance has varied, from year to year. The bar chart shows returns on a before-tax basis and gives some indication of risk by showing changes in the Portfolio’s yearly performance for each of the last ten full calendar years. The table accompanying the bar chart compares the Portfolio’s performance over time on a before and after-tax basis to that of a broad based market index. Of course, past performance, before and after taxes, does not indicate how the Portfolio will perform in the future. The HC Advisors Shares is a new class of the Trust for which a full calendar year of performance is not yet available. The performance shown below is that of HC Strategic Shares and has not been adjusted to reflect HC Advisors Shares expenses, which are higher. If it had been, performance would have been lower.

[1]Effective January 1, 2011, the Fixed Income Opportunity Portfolio's benchmark was changed from the Credit Suisse High Yield Index to the Barclays Capital U.S. High Yield Ba/B 2% Issuer Capped Index. Relative to other high yield indexes this index is a better representation of our preferred higher quality high yield investment style for the highlighted reasons: 1) The Ba/B carve out of the Index reflects higher quality credits and Portfolio investable universe; 2) Issuer capping methodology is comparable to the Portfolio's investment guidelines; 3) Excludes emerging market bonds; 4) Split ratings are treated the same, in the event of a split rating, the lower ("more conservative") rating is used.
After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual Federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes.

Portfolio Turnover
The Portfolio 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 Portfolio shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Portfolio’s performance. During the period December 6, 2010 (commencement of operations) through June 30, 2011, the Portfolio’s turnover was 74% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily (i.e. at least 80% of its net assets) in a portfolio of U.S. fixed income securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. Government, Federal Agencies, or sponsored agencies. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented. In general the portfolio will maintain aggregate characteristics similar to the Barclays Capital U.S. Government Index. Securities held by the Portfolio will be rated investment grade or better by at least two rating agencies at the time of purchase if not rated by an agency, of comparable credit quality as determined by the Specialist Manager at the time of purchase. Overall credit quality of the Portfolio will be maintained at a level substantially equal to that of the Barclays Capital U.S. Government Index. The Portfolio will attempt to be fully invested at all times in U.S. Government fixed income securities, but may hold cash positions at times to adjust the duration of the Portfolio to more closely approximate that of the Barclays Capital U.S. Government Index, to replicate the interest rate sensitivity of the securities in the Barclays Capital U.S. Government Index, or to approximate the exposure to cash in the Barclays Capital U.S. Government Index from coupon payments, principal payments or called securities. The Portfolio intends to maintain an effective dollar weighted average portfolio maturity similar to that of the Barclays Capital U.S. Government Index.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Principal Investment Risks

Investing in the Portfolio involves risks common to any investment in securities. As is the case with any investment, your investment in the Portfolio involves the risk that you may lose money on your investment.

• Call/Prepayment Risk – When interest rates are declining, issuers of securities held by the Portfolio may prepay principal earlier than scheduled. As a result of this risk, the Portfolio may have to reinvest these prepayments at those lower rates, thus reducing its income. This risk should be low for the Portfolio as it invests mainly in securities that are not callable.

• Interest Rate Risk – One of the primary risks associated with an investment in the Portfolio is the risk that the value of fixed income securities held in the Portfolio will decline with changes in interest rates. Prices of fixed income securities with longer effective maturities are more sensitive to interest rate changes than those with shorter effective maturities. Accordingly, the yield of the Portfolio can be expected to be somewhat more volatile in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term investment vehicles.

• Management Risk – The risk that investment strategies employed in the investment selection process may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or in overall performance equal to other investments.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will meet its goals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily (i.e. at least 80% of net assets) in a portfolio of investment grade fixed income securities issued by U.S. corporations. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented. In general the portfolio will maintain aggregate characteristics similar to the Barclay’s Capital U.S. Corporate Index. Securities held by the Portfolio will be rated investment-grade or better by one of the established rating agencies or, if not rated by an agency, of comparable credit quality as determined by the Specialist Manager at the time of purchase. Securities held by the Portfolio which are downgraded below investment-grade by all ratings agencies may be retained up to a maximum market value of 5% of the Portfolio. Securities purchased for the Portfolio will have varying maturities, but under normal circumstances the Portfolio will have an effective dollar weighted average portfolio maturity of between nine and twelve years. The Portfolio will not invest more than 5% of its assets in the securities of any single issuer or more than 25% of its assets in any one corporate sub-sector. The Portfolio may also invest up to 20% of its assets in municipal bonds (i.e., debt securities issued by municipalities and related entities).

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Investing in the Portfolio involves risks common to any investment in securities. As is the case with any investment, your investment in the Portfolio involves the risk that you may lose money on your investment.

• Call/Prepayment Risk – When interest rates are declining, issuers of securities held by the Portfolio may prepay principal earlier than scheduled. As a result of this risk, the Portfolio may have to reinvest these prepayments at those lower rates, thus reducing its income. Mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are especially sensitive to prepayment.

• Credit Risk – An investment in the Portfolio also involves the risk that the issuer of a fixed income security that the Portfolio holds will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal, or go bankrupt, or that the value of the securities will decline because of a market perception that the issuer may not make payments on time, thus potentially reducing the Portfolio’s return. Changes in economic conditions are likely to cause issuers of these securities to be unable to meet their obligations. The lower the rating of a debt security, the higher its credit risk. In addition, the securities of many U.S. Government agencies, authorities or instrumentalities in which the Portfolio may invest are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government, and may be supported only by the ability of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury or by the credit of the issuer.

• Interest Rate Risk – One of the primary risks associated with an investment in the Portfolio is the risk that the value of securities held in the Portfolio, including U.S. Government securities, will decline with changes in interest rates. Treasury inflation protected securities (“TIPS”) can also exhibit price movements as a result of changing inflation expectations and seasonal inflation patterns. Prices of fixed income securities with longer effective maturities are more sensitive to interest rate changes than those with shorter effective maturities. Accordingly, the yield of the Portfolio can be expected to be somewhat more volatile in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term investment vehicles. U.S. Government securities can exhibit price movements resulting from changes in interest rates.

• Liquidity Risk – At times, certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the price that would normally prevail in the market.

During the period December 6, 2010 (commencement of operations) through June 30, 2011, the Portfolio’s turnover was 11% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily (i.e. at least primarily 80% of net assets) in a portfolio of publicly issued, investment grade mortgage and asset backed securities. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented. In general the portfolio will maintain aggregate characteristics similar to the Barclays Capital U.S. Securitized Index. The Portfolio will seek to invest in U.S. dollar denominated agency and non-agency mortgage-backed securities backed by loans secured by residential, multifamily and commercial properties including, but not limited to: pass throughs, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), real estate mortgage investment conduits (“REMICs”), stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBS”), project loans, construction loans, and adjustable rate mortgages. The Portfolio may also invest in U.S. Treasury and agency securities. Except for Treasury or agency debentures, pass-throughs or REMICs, no more than 5% of the Portfolio’s assets may be invested in the securities of a single issuer. Securities must be rated investment-grade or better by a nationally recognized credit rating agency at the time of purchase or, if not rated by an agency, of comparable credit quality as determined by the Specialist Manager at the time of purchase. The Portfolio may engage in transactions involving “derivative instruments” both in order to hedge against fluctuations in the market value of the securities in which the Portfolio invests and to achieve market exposure pending investment and, in the case of asset-backed and similar securities, for investment purposes. Securities purchased for the Portfolio will have varying maturities, but under normal circumstances the Portfolio will have an effective dollar weighted average portfolio maturity of between three and five years.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Changes in economic conditions are likely to cause issuers of these securities to be unable to meet their obligations. Credit risk is greater for lower quality or “junk bonds.” In addition, the securities of many U.S. Government agencies, authorities or instrumentalities in which the Portfolio may invest are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government, and may be supported only by the ability of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury or by the credit of the issuer.

Portfolio Turnover
The Portfolio 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 Portfolio shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Portfolio’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio’s turnover was 20% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio’s principal investment strategy is to invest at least 80% of its assets in municipal bonds (i.e., debt securities issued by municipalities and related entities, the interest on which is exempt from Federal income tax) (“Tax-Exempt Securities”) so that it will qualify to pay “exempt-interest dividends.” The Portfolio intends to maintain a dollar-weighted effective average portfolio maturity of no longer than three years. The Portfolio invests primarily in securities that are rated in one of the top four rating categories of a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or, if unrated, that are determined by the Specialist Manager to be of comparable quality. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented. Fixed income securities rated in the fourth highest rating category by a rating agency may have speculative characteristics. The Portfolio does not currently intend to invest in obligations, the interest on which is a preference item for purposes of the Federal alternative minimum tax.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Principal Investment Risks

Investing in the Portfolio involves risks common to any investment in securities. As is the case with any investment, your investment in the Portfolio involves the risk that you may lose money on your investment.

• Call/Prepayment Risk – Municipal securities held by the Portfolio may be called (prepaid) before their maturity dates. This usually occurs as interest rates are declining. As a result of this risk, the Portfolio may have to reinvest these prepayments at those lower rates, thus reducing its income. In addition, the Portfolio may lose price appreciation if a bond it holds is called earlier than scheduled.

• Credit Risk – An investment in the Portfolio also involves the risk that the issuer of a municipal security that the Portfolio holds will not make principal or interest payments when they are due, or that the value of the municipal securities will decline because of a market perception that the issuer may not make payments on time. Fixed income securities rated in the fourth highest rating category by a rating agency may have speculative characteristics. Credit risk is greater for lower quality fixed income securities.

• Extension Risk – These securities are also subject to the risk that payment on the loans underlying the securities held by the Portfolio will be made more slowly when interest rates are rising. This could cause the market value of the securities to decline.

• Interest Rate Risk – One of the primary risks associated with an investment in the Portfolio is the risk that the value of municipal securities held in the Portfolio will decline with changes in interest rates. Prices of fixed income securities with longer effective maturities are more sensitive to interest rate changes than those with shorter effective maturities.

• Management Risk – The risk that investment strategies employed in the investment selection process may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or in overall performance equal to other investments.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

• Tax Risk – Changes in Federal tax laws or regulations could change the tax-exempt status of income from any or all of the Portfolio’s municipal securities. In addition, short-term capital gains and a portion of any gain attributable to bonds purchased at market discount will be treated as ordinary income for Federal tax purposes.

There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will meet its goals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

Performance Bar Chart and Table

Performance.

The chart and table below show how The Short-Term Municipal Bond Portfolio has performed, and how its performance has varied from year to year. The bar chart shows returns on a before-tax basis and gives some indication of risk by showing changes in the Portfolio’s yearly performance for each full calendar year since the Portfolio’s inception on March 1, 2006. The table accompanying the bar chart compares the Portfolio’s performance over time on a before and after-tax basis to that of a broad based market index. Of course, past performance, before and after taxes, does not indicate how the Portfolio will perform in the future. The HC Advisors Shares is a new class of the Trust for which a full calendar year of performance is not yet available. The performance shown below is that of HC Strategic Shares and has not been adjusted to reflect HC Advisors Shares expenses, which are higher. If it had been, performance would have been lower.

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

Portfolio Turnover
The Portfolio 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 Portfolio shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Portfolio’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio’s turnover was 22% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily (i.e., at least 80% of assets) in a diversified portfolio of intermediate-term fixed income securities, the interest on which is exempt from regular Federal income tax. These securities, which include both securities issued by municipalities and so-called “private activity bonds,” are referred to as “Municipal Securities.” Municipal Securities acquired for the Portfolio will generally be rated in one of the three highest rating categories assigned by one of the major independent rating agencies, or are, in the view of the Specialist Manager, deemed to be of comparable quality. The Portfolio is, however, authorized to invest up to 15% of its assets in Municipal Securities that are rated in the fourth highest category. Fixed income securities rated in the fourth highest rating category by a rating agency may have speculative characteristics. Also, the Portfolio is authorized to invest up to 20% of its net assets in taxable instruments. It is a fundamental policy of the Portfolio that, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets will be invested in Municipal Securities. Municipal Securities purchased for the Portfolio will have varying maturities, but under normal circumstances the Portfolio will have an effective dollar weighted average portfolio maturity of between five and ten years. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.

Principal Investment Risks

Investing in the Portfolio involves risks common to any investment in securities. As is the case with any investment, your investment in the Portfolio involves the risk that you may lose money on your investment.

• Call/Prepayment Risk – Municipal securities held by the Portfolio may be called (prepaid) before their maturity dates. This usually occurs as interest rates are declining. As a result of this risk, the Portfolio may have to reinvest these prepayments at those lower rates, thus reducing its income. In addition, the Portfolio may lose price appreciation if a bond it holds is called earlier than scheduled.

• Credit Risk – An investment in the Portfolio also involves the risk that the issuer of a Municipal Security that the Portfolio holds will not make principal or interest payments when they are due, or that the value of the Municipal Securities will decline because of a market perception that the issuer may not make payments on time. Fixed income securities rated in the fourth highest rating category by a rating agency may have speculative characteristics. Credit risk is greater for lower quality fixed income securities.

• Extension Risk – These securities are also subject to the risk that payment on the loans underlying the securities held by the Portfolio will be made more slowly when interest rates are rising. This could cause the market value of the securities to decline.

• Interest Rate Risk – One of the primary risks associated with an investment in the Portfolio is the risk that the value of Municipal Securities held in the Portfolio will decline with changes in interest rates. Prices of fixed income securities with longer effective maturities are more sensitive to interest rate changes than those with shorter effective maturities. Accordingly, the yield of the Portfolio can be expected to be somewhat more volatile in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term investment vehicles.

• Liquidity Risk – At times, certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the price that would normally prevail in the market. The seller may have to lower the price, sell other securities instead or forego an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on Portfolio management or performance. This includes the risk of missing out on an investment opportunity because the assets necessary to take advantage of it are tied up in less advantageous investments.

• Management Risk – The risk that investment strategies employed in the investment selection process may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or in overall performance equal to other investments.

• Market Risk – The value of the securities held by a Portfolio may decline in response to general market and economic conditions or conditions that affect specific market sectors or individual companies.

There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will meet its goals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

Portfolio Turnover
The Portfolio 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 Portfolio shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Portfolio’s performance. During the period July 13, 2010 (commencement of operations) through June 30, 2011, the Portfolio’s turnover was 3% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies

The Portfolio seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily in a portfolio of municipal bonds (i.e., debt securities issued by municipalities and related entities, the interest on which is exempt from Federal income tax). It is the Portfolio’s policy that, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets will be invested in such securities (collectively, “Tax-Exempt Securities”). Tax-Exempt Securities may include general obligation bonds and notes, revenue bonds and notes (including industrial revenue bonds and municipal lease obligations), as well as participation interests relating to such securities. The Portfolio invests primarily in securities that are rated in one of the top four rating categories of a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or, if unrated, that are determined by the investment subadviser to be of comparable quality. The Portfolio intends to maintain a dollar-weighted effective average portfolio maturity of five to seven years. In the unlikely event that a change in this investment policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees, shareholders will receive at least 60 days prior written notice before such change is implemented.

The Portfolio is authorized to operate on a multi-manager basis. This means that a single Portfolio may be managed by more than one Specialist Manager. The multi-manager structure is generally designed to provide investors access to broadly diversified investment styles. The Trust seeks to engage skilled Specialist Managers to provide a broad exposure to the relevant asset class and returns in excess of the Portfolio’s benchmark over time.
