Important Risk Disclosure

There is a risk that you could lose all or a portion of your investment in the Fund. The following principal risks associated with the fund can affect the value of your investment: General Market Risk: The market price of a security may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. These fluctuations may cause a security to be worth less than its cost when originally purchased or less than it was worth at an earlier time. Equity Risk: Since the Fund purchases equity securities, it is subject to the risk that stock prices will fall over short or extended periods of time. Historically, the equity markets have moved in cycles, and the value of the Fund's equity securities may fluctuate drastically from day to day. Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by industry and/or economic trends and developments. The prices of securities issued by such companies may suffer a decline in response. These factors contribute to price volatility. Management Risk: The Adviser may fail to implement the Fund's investment strategies and meet its investment objective. Smaller Companies Risk: Investing in securities of smaller companies including micro-cap, smallcap, medium-cap and less seasoned companies often involve greater volatility than investing in larger, more established companies and these securities may be less liquid than other securities. Small Portfolio Risk: Although the Fund is diversified, from time to time, it holds a relatively small number of securities (i.e., under 40). As a result, an increase or decrease in the value of a single security held by the Fund may have a greater impact on the Fund's net asset value and total return. Each of the preceding risks are discussed in the prospectus. Please see the prospectus for more complete information regarding these and other risks associated with the fund.
