Fund Description

The Fund's adviser seeks to achieve the Fund's investment objective by investing primarily in common stock and fixed income securities of domestic issuers using the adviser's "Absolute Value" strategy. This strategy relies upon both fundamental and technical analysis to select securities the adviser believes are undervalued and mispriced by the markets.

The adviser uses qualitative and quantitative elements of fundamental analysis, including the use of internal and external resources, to identify securities currently discounted by the market such as those selling below the replacement cost of assets they represent. To determine if a company, in total, is being undervalued, the adviser's research team derives an estimate of the company's Absolute Value from key components, including management's competency, experience, culture, and ownership as well as earnings potential, free cash flow, current debt load, asset replacement cost and sector fundamentals. Once fundamentally-screened discounted securities are identified, the adviser assesses the risk and rewards of securities of the company at various levels of the capital structure (debt or common stock). After identifying the appropriate investment vehicle within the capital structure, the adviser uses technical analysis, such as a trend-following or a momentum-based price forecast, to identify what it believes is the optimal purchase price.

The Fund invests without restriction as to issuer capitalization, or the credit quality rating and maturity of fixed income securities. With respect to the fixed income portion of the Fund's portfolio, the adviser invests primarily in lower quality rated corporate debt commonly known as "junk bonds." Junk bonds are rated lower than Baa3 by Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's") or lower than BBB- by Standard and Poor's Rating Group ("S&P").

The adviser seeks capital appreciation from common and preferred stocks and fixed income securities as well as income from dividends or interest to generate total return. The Fund's adviser does not have a set asset allocation target between such equity and fixed income securities. The adviser sells a security once a price target is reached, when more attractive investments are available or to optimally re-allocate Fund assets consistent with the adviser's Absolute Value strategy.

The Fund is non-diversified which means that it can invest a greater percentage of its assets in any one issuer than a diversified fund.
