The Fund utilizes a ‘fund of funds” structure to access a wide variety of underlying asset classes and strategies. The Adviser seeks to achieve the Fund’s investment objectives by investing in mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) (collectively, “Underlying Funds”). The Adviser constructs the Fund’s broadly-diversified investment portfolio by investing at various times in a wide range of Underlying Funds that invest in various security and investment categories (each an “Asset Class”).

The Adviser seeks to achieve the Fund’s investment objectives by investing primarily in Underlying Funds that in turn invest in a wide variety of fixed-income instruments of any maturity, including domestic and foreign bonds, some of which are hedged against currency risk, funds that are designed to have returns that are inverse to the 10-year U.S. Treasury note or the 30-year U.S. Treasury bond, as well as real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and other income-generating underlying assets. The Fund may purchase U.S. Treasury securities directly.

Among the types of underlying instruments in which this Fund will invest, through Underlying Funds, are the following:

On occasion, a portion of the Fund’s portfolio may be hedged with positions that move inversely to the 10-year U.S. Treasury note and/or the 30-year Treasury bond to improve returns when the interest-rate environment is moving adversely to long positions in the major bond markets (that is, when interest rates are in a rising trend) or to hedge other positions, and/or positions that hedge currency risk. Additionally, on occasion, the Fund will use Underlying Funds that are moderately leveraged, although the portfolio as a whole will not use leverage extensively, since one of the goals of the Fund is to limit downside volatility.

The Fund defines high yield securities, also known as “junk bonds,” as fixed-income securities rated below investment grade and whose issuers generally have a non-investment grade rating or are not rated.

The Adviser’s investment strategy is a tactical style that includes analysis and use of a wide variety of income-producing investment categories, such as fixed-income securities and dividend-paying REITs of issuers from various markets and industries (“Asset Classes”) in an effort to limit overall volatility and downside risk as well as to seek opportunities to enhance return through income and capital appreciation (total return). The current yield of the Fund is not a separate goal, and the monthly dividend yield will fluctuate significantly given the Fund’s tactical approach of seeking various bond categories from time to time that the Adviser’s portfolio managers feel will contribute to total return.

The Fund defines high yield securities, also known as “junk bonds,” as fixed-income securities rated below investment grade and whose issuers generally have a non-investment grade rating or are not rated. The Fund may purchase Treasury securities directly.

The Adviser employs a proprietary trend following strategy to generate “buy” and “sell” signals for Underlying Funds. The Adviser calculates upper and lower bands for each Underlying Fund. The upper and lower bands are offset above and below a short-term exponential moving average. A “buy” signal, which identifies a potential uptrend for an Underlying Fund candidate, is determined by a security’s price rising above both the recent low of its upper band and a secondary moving average. The Adviser uses quantitative analysis to determine which Underlying Funds to purchase.

An Underlying Fund is sold when a security’s price falls below the recent high of its lower band (a “sell” signal), the goal being to limit drawdowns of the overall Fund. When a position is sold, the proceeds may be invested in an alternative Underlying Fund or temporarily invested in cash equivalents. Cash equivalents may include, but are not limited to, U.S. Treasury bills, money market funds and Funds that primarily invest in investment grade short-term bonds. The Adviser periodically reviews the allocation of the Underlying Funds and may make adjustments to the Underlying Fund holdings, including adding or removing Underlying Funds.

The overall asset allocation of the Fund is not fixed. It can and does change significantly over time as the Adviser decides to re-allocate portions of the portfolio in response to changes in price trends of Underlying Funds. The Adviser may engage in frequent buying and selling of portfolio securities to achieve the Fund’s investment objectives.

The Fund may engage in securities lending.
