Please read the prospectus carefully before investing. An investment in the Fund is subject to risk, including the possible loss of principal amount invested, that are fully discussed in the Fund's prospectus and include technology risk, the risk of short product cycles and rapid obsolescence of products and services; manufacturing company risk, affected by supply and demand for their specific product; new industry risk and other equity securities risk. A decline in the value of or default by a single security may have a greater negative effect than in a diversified portfolio. Investments in small and medium capitalization companies may be less liquid and their securities' prices may fluctuate more than those of larger, more established companies. Foreign investments may be subject to the same risks as domestic investments and additional risks which include international trade, currency fluctuation, and political, regulatory and diplomatic risks, which may affect their value. Foreign investments may also suffer from a lack of timely or reliable financial information. Emerging markets investments are subject to additional risks due to greater political and economic uncertainties as well as a relative lack of information about companies in such markets. Investments in ADRs, which are depositary receipts for foreign company stocks, are not themselves listed on a U.S. exchange. Preferred stock is a class of a capital stock that typically pays dividends at a specified rate. The market value of preferred stock generally decreases when interest rates rise and is also affected by the issuer's ability to make payments on the preferred stock. Investments in convertible securities subject the Fund to the risks associated with both fixed-income securities and common stocks. If a convertible security investment's value is greater than its conversion value, its price will be likely to increase when interest rates fall and decrease when interest rates rise, as with a fixed-income security. The Fund has a limited history of operation, industry concentration risk and regulatory risk. There is no guarantee the Fund will achieve the investment objective. The Fund may not be suitable for all investors. Foreside Fund Services, LLC, distributor.
