| 1 The redemption fee (“Redemption Fee”) is charged upon any redemption of Fund shares occurring within one year following the issuance of such shares. The Redemption Fee is not a fee to finance sales or sales promotion expenses, but is paid to the respective Fund to defray the costs of liquidating a shareholder’s investment in the Fund and discourage short-term trading of Fund shares. The Redemption Fee does not apply to shares purchased by reinvesting dividends or capital gain distributions, shares exchanged for shares of other funds of the Trust, amounts representing capital appreciation of shares, certain redemptions pursuant to a systematic withdrawal plan, certain redemptions upon death or permanent disability of the shareholder, or mandatory distribution from a tax-deferred retirement plan or IRA. See the section entitled “Redeeming Your Shares – Fees on Redemptions” for additional information regarding the applicability of the Redemption Fee. | |

| 2 “Other Expenses” and “Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses” are based upon actual expenses incurred by the Fund for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007, adjusted to reflect the maximum variable performance fee with respect to the Fund (see footnote 4 below). The Advisor has entered into an Expense Limitation Agreement with the Fund under which it has agreed to reduce the amount of the investment advisory fees to be paid to the Advisor by the Fund for certain months and to assume other expenses of the Fund, if necessary, in an amount that limits the Fund’s annual operating expenses (exclusive of interest, taxes, brokerage fees and commissions, investment advisory and/or variable performance incentive fees paid to the Advisor, extraordinary expenses and payments, if any, under a Rule 12b-1 Plan) to not more than 0.45% of the average daily net assets of the Fund for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2008. It is expected that the Expense Limitation Agreement will continue from year-to-year, provided such continuance is approved by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. See the section entitled “Management of the Funds--Investment Advisor” for more detailed information, including more information on the Fund’s variable performance incentive fee.
3 “Acquired Fund” means any investment company in which the Fund invests or has invested during the period. The Fund’s “Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses” are based on amounts for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007. The “Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses” will not correlate to the Fund’s ratio of expenses to average net assets in the Fund’s Financial Highlights, which reflects the operating expenses of the Fund and does not include “Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses.” The Fund calculates the Acquired Funds’ expenses using the net expense ratios reported in the Acquired Funds’ most recent shareholder reports. The “Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses” for the Fund for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007 were less than 0.01%. 4 Actual “Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses” and “Net Expenses” for the Focus Fund for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007 were 2.53% and 1.98%, respectively. | |
