PROXY STATEMENT


SOLICITATION, REVOCATION AND VOTING OF PROXIES


The enclosed proxy is solicited by and on behalf of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of PROACTIVE Asset Allocation Funds (the "Trust") and its only currently outstanding series, OPTI-flex® DYNAMIC Fund (the  "Fund"), for use at a Special Meeting of shareholders (the "Meeting"), or any adjournment thereof, to be held at 9:00 a.m. on Friday, September 30, 2005 at the Fund's offices at 3401 Technology Drive, Suite 200, Lake Saint Louis, MO 63367.  This proxy statement and the enclosed proxy card are expected to be mailed on or about September 2, 2005, to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 31, 2005 (the "Record Date"). On the Record Date, the Fund had outstanding 700,891.002 shares of beneficial interest.  Shareholders will be entitled to one vote on each matter for each share that they own on the Record Date.


A majority of the shares entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum and the presence of a quorum is necessary for the transaction of business. Abstentions and broker “non-votes” will be included for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the meeting, but will be treated as votes not cast and, therefore, will not be counted in determining whether matters to be voted upon at the meeting have been approved.


The election of the nominees for Trustee described under Proposal 1 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of shares present at the meeting either in person or by proxy.  The proposed new investment advisory arrangements described under Proposals 2A and 2B require approval by a "vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities" of the Fund as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act").  Under the 1940 Act, such approval means the affirmative vote at a meeting of shareholders of the lesser of (a) more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares, or (b) 67% or more of the shares present or represented by proxy at the meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares are present in person or represented by proxy.


All shares represented by properly executed proxies, unless such proxies have been previously revoked, will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the directions on the proxies.  Abstentions and broker “non-votes” (i.e., proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that such persons have not received instructions from the beneficial owner or other person entitled to vote shares on a particular matter with respect to which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary power) will be treated as shares that are present but which have not been voted and will therefore have the effect of a vote "against".


A shareholder who executes and returns a proxy may revoke it at any time prior to its exercise by delivering to the Secretary of the Fund written notice of its revocation, sending the Fund a proxy with a later date, or voting in person at the meeting.  The cost of soliciting proxies, which is estimated at $250.00, will be paid by the Fund’s current investment adviser or new investment adviser, not by the Fund.  In addition to the solicitation by mail, officers of the Fund may ask shareholders in personal conversations or by telephone or telecopy to return proxies.


IN ORDER TO ASSURE A QUORUM AT THE MEETING, IT IS REQUESTED THAT SHAREHOLDERS WHO WILL NOT ATTEND THE MEETING SIGN AND RETURN A PROXY AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE.


ANNUAL REPORT


The Annual Report of the Fund, including audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, has previously been furnished to all shareholders.  The Fund will provide, without charge, additional copies to any requesting shareholder who calls the following toll-free number: 1-888-776-2284.


OWNERSHIP OF SHARES


Officers and Trustees of the Fund own approximately 6.53% of the Fund's outstanding shares.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OF THE MEETING


Jeffrey J. Unterreiner has served the Fund as its portfolio manager since August 9, 2002, first through PROACTIVE Money Management, Inc. (“PMM”) and then since February 1, 2003 through Proactive’s affiliated company, PROACTIVE Financial Services, Inc. (“PFS”), the Fund’s current investment adviser. Both PMM and PFS are controlled by Jeffrey J. Unterreiner.


Recently, Mr. Unterreiner and Illington Fund Management, Inc. (“Illington”) reached an agreement in principle calling for Mr. Unterreiner to sell his interest in PFS to Illington and for Illington to seek the approval of the Trust’s Trustees and the Fund’s shareholders to have Illington become the Fund’s investment adviser. In addition, Illington would, again subject to Trustee and shareholder approval, retain PMM as subadviser for the Fund and Mr. Unterreiner would continue as the Fund’s portfolio manager.  None of the foregoing activities resulted in an “assignment” of the Fund’s investment advisory agreement with PFS (which would, under relevant law, have automatically terminated the agreement).  Instead, the independent Trustees of the Trust considered the situation in order to determine the best course of action in the interests of the Fund’s shareholders, as more fully described below.


Illington is an independently owned investment advisory organization which has its principal offices at 427 Bedford Road, Pleasantville, N.Y. It has been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 since December 9, 2004. It invests and advises in excess of $1.5 billion in client assets through managed accounts, fund vehicles and consulting agreements.


Mr. Unterreiner and Illington believe that the proposed new investment advisory arrangements described in Proposals 2A and 2B will permit continuity for the management of the Fund as well as enhance the Trust’s ability to offer additional investment company opportunities to the investing public. It is contemplated that Mr. Unterreiner would also be retained by the Fund and/or Illington as a consultant on a basis to be determined in order to enhance the continuity to be derived from his serving as portfolio manager.


The proposed new investment advisory arrangements were presented to and considered by the Board, a majority of whom are not “interested persons” of the Trust or the Fund as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”). The Independent Trustees, consisting of Arnold Tennant and Robert Lange, requested and were provided with the information required by the 1940 Act to be furnished to fund directors or trustees in connection with approving an investment advisory agreement or an investment subadvisory agreement. The Independent Trustees also consulted with legal counsel to the Trust. After review of the proposed arrangements, which included (a) interviews with the Trustee nominees named in Proposal 1, as well as with Mr. Unterreiner and representatives of Illington, (b) discussions with legal counsel, and (c) a series of formal and informal meetings with and without Mr. Unterreiner’s presence or participation, the Independent Trustees, at a meeting held on September 1, 2005, unanimously approved the proposed new investment advisory arrangements and directed that they be submitted for approval by the Fund’s shareholders.


The Independent Trustees also considered the fact that if the new investment advisory arrangements are approved by the shareholders, the Trust’s and the Fund’s management and operations would be moved from Lake Saint Louis, Missouri to Pleasantville, New York, to be coordinated with Illington’s. As a result, Messrs. Tennant and Lange determined not to continue as Trustees; instead, they have considered candidates to succeed them as Trustees and are recommending to the shareholders the persons identified and described in Proposal 1. In their determination, the Independent Trustees noted that three of the four nominees are not “interested persons” as described above. In addition, the composition of the Board of Trustees if Proposal 1 is approved would be such that the Board would have as its Independent Trustees a financial expert in Mr. Endler, and an accounting and governance expert in Mr. DioGuardi.  Also, Mr. White would bring over 20 years of investment management experience to the Board including his history as Assistant Controller of the City of Boston.  


If Proposal 1 is approved by the shareholders the nominees would immediately take office and Messrs. Tennant and Lange would cease to be Trustees.


Investment Company Act of 1940 Considerations


Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act permits an investment adviser to a fund to benefit from the sale of its business to another, thereby resulting in the assignment of the fund’s investment advisory agreement with such adviser, but only so long as (a) for at least three years thereafter at least three quarters of the fund’s board of trustees are Independent Trustees and (b) no unfair burden is imposed on the fund. As noted above, no assignment of the Fund’s current Investment Advisory Agreement will occur prior to the implementation of the proposed new investment advisory arrangements. Therefore, section 15(f) is not applicable. However, being mindful of the merits of this law, Illington has proposed, and the nominees for Trustee have agreed, that the Trust will have at least two independent Trustees so long as there are only three Trustees and will have at least three quarters of the Trustees be independent if there are four or more Trustees in the future. In addition, the current Trustees have, with the advice of counsel, determined that none of the proposed arrangements involves the imposition of an unfair burden on the Fund.


PROPOSAL 1 - ELECTION OF TRUSTEES


The Board, which oversees the Trust and the Fund, provides broad supervision over the

affairs of the Fund. The Fund’s investment adviser is responsible for the investment management of the Fund, including retention of any sub-adviser, and for providing a variety of other administrative services to the Fund. The officers of the Fund are responsible for its operations.


The Fund does not hold annual shareholder meetings for the purpose of electing Trustees, and Trustees are not elected for fixed terms. This means that a Trustee is elected to hold office until his or her successor is chosen and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement or removal.


Three Trustees are to be elected to serve on the Board until their successors have been elected and qualify for office. The nominees are: The Honorable Joseph J. DioGuardi and Messrs. Peter T. Endler and Charles M. White. The business address for each is 427 Bedford Road, Pleasantville, NY 10570. The following table sets forth information about each of the nominees, including age, principal occupation and business experience for at least the past five years.

FUND SHARES OWNED BY TRUSTEES AND NOMINEES


As of the Record Date for the Meeting, no Trustee or nominee for Trustee owned any shares of the Fund except for Jeffrey J. Unterreiner, whose share ownership position has a value of over $100,000. However, each nominee for Trustee has expressed a desire to become a shareholder in the near future in recognition of the desirability of having trustees be investors in the funds they serve.

The Trust pays each Trustee who is not an "interested person" an annual fee of $2,000, plus $150 for each meeting of the Board attended. The Board held four meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 (the "2004 fiscal year") and all Trustees attended each meeting during their term of service. All other officers and Trustees serve without compensation from the Trust. If elected, the new Board expects to consider the appropriateness of the current level of Trustee compensation.


The Board has a standing audit committee consisting of Messrs. Lange and Tennant. Each member of the audit committee is paid $250 per quarter and $100 for each meeting attended. The audit committee met four times during the 2004 fiscal year and each member attended each meeting during his term of service. The audit committee reviews the financial condition and the auditing of the financial statements of the Fund and recommends the selection of the Fund's independent public accountants. The Board does not have a standing nominating or compensation committee because the matters typically assigned to such committees are not as regular or frequent as with the audit committee. Instead, the Independent Trustees are responsible for such matters.


PROPOSAL 2A - INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND PROPOSAL 2B – INVESTMENT SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT


Introduction


See “Background and Purpose of the Meeting” above for a description of the events leading to these Proposals, which are to be voted on as separate items but are interdependent, i.e., neither will be implemented unless the other is also approved by the shareholders.  Therefore, if both Proposal 2A and Proposal 2B are approved, PFS would be succeeded as the Fund’s investment adviser by Illington, PMM would become the Fund’s subadviser and Jeffrey J. Unterreiner would continue uninterrupted as the Fund’s portfolio manager. Illington would so serve pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Proposed Advisory Agreement”) in the form attached to this proxy statement as Exhibit A. The proposed Investment Subadvisory Agreement between Illington and PMM is attached to this proxy statement as Exhibit B.


Proposal 2A and Proposal 2B


In considering the proposed new arrangement, the Independent Trustees determined that they would consider same as an entirety, recognizing that it would not be appropriate to implement either Proposal unless its counterpart were also approved. In considering this, they noted that, except for the identity of the corporation serving as investment adviser, there is to be no change whatsoever between the existing investment advisory agreement with PFS and the Proposed Advisory Agreement, including no change in the advisory fee to be paid by the Fund. The Independent Trustees also noted that while the proposed new investment advisory arrangements include having Illington retain PMM as subadviser, the subadvisory fee to be paid to PMM would be paid by Illington and would not be an additional cost to the Fund. In addition, the Trustees observed that the actual management of the Fund’s assets would continue to be performed by Jeffrey J. Unterreiner as portfolio manager.


Other factors were also considered by the Independent Trustees in their deliberations. They requested from PFS and PMM and separately from Illington a great deal of information of the type they had historically requested in connection with their annual consideration of renewing the then-existing investment advisory agreement. They also considered such facts as that Illington is a larger and better capitalized company than PFS or PMM and can be expected to offer the Trust greater opportunities for growth of the Fund through enhanced marketing efforts, as well as the fact that Illington was willing to assume responsibility for the Trust and the Fund without any increase in the costs of services to be provided to the Trust and the Fund. They also reviewed and considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by Illington on the one hand and PMM on the other. The Trustees concluded that the two entities jointly could offer services that would at a minimum be comparable to the existing services and had the possibility of being more extensive at no additional cost. In their consideration of the investment performance of the Fund, they noted particularly their satisfaction with the performance heretofore provided by Mr. Unterreiner and the fact that there would be no change in the investment decision making process. In considering the costs of services to be provided and profits to be realized by the two advisory firms from their relationship with the Fund, they noted that the Fund’s assets are such that it does not pay very significant investment advisory fees ($28,007 for 2004 and $19,897 for 2003) and service fees ($24,345 for 2004 and $17,179 for 2003) and therefore is at best only minimally profitable to its investment adviser. In view of the fact that the Fund has less than $10 million of net assets and the fact that the existing fee arrangements will produce lower fee rates when assets reach $20 million, the Independent Trustees were satisfied that appropriate consideration has been given to the extent to which economies of scale would be realized if and when the Fund grows. Based on an extensive amount of information with respect to the Fund’s “peer group” of funds and other advisory clients of PFS or PMM, together with information provided to them from time to time during the course of their serving as Trustees, the Trustees concluded that the fees and expenses of the Fund are consistent with those of funds with similar investment objectives and asset levels.  Specifically, the Independent Trustees noted that while Fund expenses were relatively high compared to the peer group, the advisory fee was slightly below the peer group average.  


Board of Trustees Recommendations. After careful consideration, the Independent Trustees voting separately and then the entire Board unanimously determined that it was in the best interest of the Fund's shareholders to approve the proposed new investment advisory arrangements and submit the Proposed Advisory Agreement and the proposed Investment Subadvisory Agreement (the “New Agreements”), with recommendations for approval, to the shareholders for vote at the Meeting.


Effective Date of Proposed New Agreements.  If shareholders approve the New Agreements, they are planned to take effect upon the effectiveness of the Fund’s registration statement and prospectus currently on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which is expected to occur in mid-October 2005.


The existing investment advisory agreement with PFS, which was approved by the Fund's shareholders on January 31, 2003 and the continuance of which was approved by the Independent Trustees and the Board on February 17, 2005, will by its terms continue in effect until February 17, 2006 unless earlier terminated upon the effectiveness of the Proposed Advisory Agreement.  If the shareholders do not approve the Proposed Agreement, the Board will have to consider what action to take, which may include seeking a new investment adviser or liquidating the Fund.


The principal terms of the Proposed Advisory Agreement, which are identical to the existing investment advisory agreement, and of the Investment Subadvisory Agreement are described below.


Investment Advisory Agreement (Current and Proposed)


Pursuant to the Fund's investment advisory agreement, the adviser, subject to the supervision of the Board and in conformity with the stated objective and policies of the Fund, manages both the investment operations of the Fund and the composition of the Fund’s portfolio, including the purchase, retention, and disposition of securities. The adviser is specifically authorized, at its own expense, to employ one or more subadvisers.


The adviser is obligated to keep certain books and records of the Fund.  The adviser also administers the Fund’s corporate affairs, and in connection therewith, furnishes the Fund with office facilities, together with those ordinary clerical and bookkeeping services which are not being furnished by the Fund's custodian or transfer and disbursing agent.  The management services of the adviser are not exclusive under the terms of the agreement and the adviser are free to render management services to others.


The adviser may use its resources to pay expenses associated with the sale of the Fund’s shares.  This may include payments to parties such as banks or broker-dealers that provide shareholder support services or engage in the sale of the Fund’s shares.  However, the Fund does not pay the adviser any separate fees for this service.


Each agreement provides for an initial term of two years and also provides that it is to remain in force thereafter only so long as renewal thereof is specifically approved at least annually by a majority of the Trustees or by vote of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Fund, and in either case by vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such renewal.  


The agreement provides that the adviser will not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Fund in connection with the matters to which the agreement relates except for a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of duty.  The agreement will terminate automatically if assigned and may be terminated without penalty at any time upon 60 days’ prior written notice by the Fund, by the Trustees of the Fund, or by the adviser.


Advisory Fees


The adviser earns an annual fee, payable in monthly installments, from the Fund at the rate of 0.75% of the Fund’s first $500 million in average net assets and 0.65% of the Fund’s average net assets in excess of $500 million.


For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, the Fund paid advisory fees to the present adviser totaling $28,007, $19,897 and $46,505, respectively.


Investment Subadvisory Agreement


Pursuant to the Investment Subadvisory Agreement, the Illington would retain PMM to see to the investment and reinvestment of the Fund’s assets, subject to the control and direction of Illington and the Trust’s Board of Trustees. PMM’s primary responsibilities would include furnishing a continuous investment program, including determining what securities are to be purchased, sold or exchanged and what portion of the Fund’s assets are to be held uninvested, all in conformity with the stated objective and policies of the Fund.


The Investment Subadvisory Agreement has substantially the same provisions as those described above for the Proposed Advisory Agreement and relating to initial term, continuation and renewal, potential liability and termination.


Subadvisory Fee


For PMM’s services as Subadviser, Illington would pay PMM a fee equal to 50% of the net advisory fees received by Illington from the Fund under the Proposed Advisory Agreement.


Expenses


The Fund pays: the fees of the Trust’s independent auditors, legal counsel, custodian, transfer agent and accountants; insurance premiums; the fees and expenses of Trustees who do not receive compensation from the adviser; association dues; the cost of printing and mailing confirmations, prospectuses, proxies, proxy statements, notices and reports to existing shareholders; state registration fees; distribution expenses within the percentage limitations of the shares’ distribution and service plan, including the cost of printing and mailing of prospectuses and other materials incident to soliciting new accounts; and other miscellaneous expenses.


Expenses of the Fund also include all fees under its Accounting and Administrative Service Agreement; the expenses connected with the execution, recording and settlement of security transactions; fees and expenses of the Fund’s custodian for all services to the Fund, including safekeeping of funds and securities and maintaining required books and accounts; expenses of preparing and mailing reports to investors and to government offices and commissions; expenses of meetings of investors and Trustees; the advisory fees payable to the adviser under the investment advisory agreement and other miscellaneous expenses.


PFS and the Fund have an agreement whereby PFS assumes responsibility for paying all expenses of the Fund (other than the advisory fee and a 1% distribution fee) in consideration for receiving a “universal services fee” equal to 0.65% of the Fund's first $20 million in average net assets, 0.50% of average net assets between $20 million and $100 million, and 0.25% of average net assets over $100 million.  As a result, the overall Fund expenses have remained at 2.40%.  If the Proposed Advisory Agreement is approved and implemented, Illington would continue this arrangement.

THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES HAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE PROPOSED ARRANGEMENTS AND RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR PROPOSAL 2A AND PROPOSAL 2B.


INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


The Trust has engaged Cohen McCurdy, Ltd. as independent auditors for 2005. Previously, McCurdy & Associates, CPA’s, Inc., whose audit practice was acquired by Cohen McCurdy, Ltd., served as the Trust’s independent auditors. The change in auditors did not involve any substantive change, since the same partners, managers and other personnel of the two audit firms continued with the engagement after the change as before.


Audit Fees.  The auditors billed aggregate fees to the Trust in the amount of $0 and $11,600 for its two most recent fiscal years, 2005 and 2004, respectively, for professional services that are normally provided by the auditors in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years.


Audit-Related Fees.  Audit-related fees are for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the auditors’ review of the Funds' financial statements and are not reported under the prior category.  Audit-related fees would include, among others:  due diligence related to mergers and acquisitions, accounting consultations and audits in connection with acquisitions, internal control reviews and consultation concerning financial accounting and reporting standards.  The Trust’s auditors did not bill any such audit-related fees in the Fund's fiscal 2005 or 2004 to the Fund or to the Fund's investment adviser or any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund.


Tax Fees.  Tax Fees would include tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice. Tax compliance generally involves preparation of original and amended tax returns, claims for a refund and tax payment-planning services.  Tax planning and tax advice includes assistance with tax audits and appeals, tax advice related to mergers and acquisitions and requests for rulings or technical advice from taxing authorities. The auditors have not billed any such amounts in the Fund’s fiscal 2005 and billed $650 for fiscal 2004 to the Fund.  No such amounts were billed to the Fund's investment adviser or any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund.  


All Other Fees.  All other fees would include products and services provided by the auditors other than the services reported under the prior three categories. Such fees would include the cost attending audit committee meetings.  The auditors did not bill any such fees in the Fund's fiscal 2005 or 2004 to the Fund.  


During its regularly scheduled periodic meetings, the Fund’s Audit Committee will pre-approve all audit, audit-related, tax and other services to be provided by the principal accountants of the Fund. In addition, the Audit Committee is expected soon to delegate pre-approval authority to its Chairman for any subsequent new engagements that arise between regularly scheduled meeting dates provided that any fees so pre-approved are presented to the Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.


The auditors did not bill any non-audit amounts in fiscal 2005 or 2004 to the Fund or its investment adviser or any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund.  


The Fund’s current Audit Committee has considered in principle whether the provision of

non-audit services rendered to the Fund’s investment adviser or any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund and not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X would be compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence.  (No such services were, however, rendered.)


Representatives of Cohen McCurdy, Ltd. are not expected to be present at the Meeting but will be available should any matter arise requiring their presence.


SUBMISSION OF CERTAIN PROPOSALS


Proposals of shareholders which are intended to be presented in a proxy statement for a future solicitation of proxies must be received by the Fund a reasonable amount of time prior to the Fund's solicitation of proxies.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants of the parties herein, the parties agree as follows:


I


INVESTMENT RESPONSIBILITY


In accordance with and subject to the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Fund and the Adviser, attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Advisory Agreement”), the Adviser hereby appoints the Subadviser to perform the Fund management services described herein for the investment and reinvestment of the Fund’s assets, subject to the control and direction of the Adviser and the Trust’s Board of Trustees, for the period and on the terms hereinafter set forth.  The Subadvisor shall provide the Adviser with such investment advice and supervision, as the latter may from time to time consider necessary and appropriate for the proper supervision of the Fund’s investment assets.  The Subadvisor shall furnish continuously an investment program and shall determine from time to time what securities shall be purchased, sold or exchanged for the account of the Fund and what portion of the assets of the Fund shall be held uninvested, subject always to the restrictions of the Trust’s Declaration of Trust and By-Laws, as each may be amended from time to time (respectively, the “Declaration” and the “By-Laws”), to the provisions of the 1940 Act and to the Fund’s then-current prospectus.  In particular, the Subadvisor shall: (i) continuously review, supervise and administer the investment program of the Fund; (ii) monitor regularly the relevant securities for the Fund (all such designated securities to be as defined from time to time in the Fund’s current prospectus) to determine if adjustments are warranted and, if so, so make such adjustments on a periodic basis; (iii) determine, in the Subadvisor’s discretion, the securities to be purchased or sold or exchanged in order to keep the Fund in balance with its designated investment strategy; and (iv) render regular reports to the Fund’s officers and the Trust’s Trustees concerning the Subadvisor’s discharge of the foregoing responsibilities.  The Subadvisor shall also make recommendations as to the manner in which voting rights, rights to consent to corporate action and any other rights pertaining to the Fund’s securities shall be exercised.  The Subadvisor shall take, on behalf of the Fund, all actions which it deems necessary to implement the investment policies determined as provided above, and, in particular, to place all orders for the purchase or sale of Fund securities for the Fund’s account with brokers or dealers selected by it, and to that end, the Subadvisor is authorized as the agent of the Fund to give instructions to the custodian of the Fund as to deliveries of securities and payments of cash for the account of the Fund.  In connection with the selection of such brokers or dealers and the placing of such orders, the Subadvisor is directed to seek for the Fund, in its best judgment, prompt execution in an effective manner at the most favorable price.  Subject to this requirement of seeking the most favorable price, securities may be bought from or sold to broker-dealers who have furnished statistical, research and other information or services to the Subadvisor or the Fund, subject to any applicable laws, rules and regulations.


It is fully understood and agreed, however, that the Adviser has all ultimate investment advisory responsibilities for the Fund, including the review, ordering and execution of trades, which include the responsibilities set forth in the Advisory Agreement.

III


COMPENSATION


For the services to be rendered by the Subadvisor hereunder, the Adviser shall pay to the Subadvisor a fee, based on advisory fees actually received by the Adviser, payable in monthly installments, and equal to 50% of Net Advisory Fees (as defined below).  For purposes hereof, “Net Advisory Fees” are defined as advisory fees actually received by the Adviser from the Fund pursuant to the Advisory Agreement (net of fee waivers and expense reimbursements due to expense caps), less any revenue sharing and asset-based fees paid to broker/dealers or custodians with assets in the Fund. Net Advisory Fees are expected to be paid to the Adviser by the Fund on a monthly basis, and the Adviser shall pay Subadvisor its portion promptly upon receipt.


IV


COVENANTS OF THE SUBADVISOR


The Subadvisor agrees that it will not deal with itself, the Board of Trustees of the Trust or the Adviser in making purchases or sales of securities or other property for the account of the Fund, and except as permitted by the 1940 Act, will not take a long or short position in the holdings of the Fund except as permitted by the Declaration, and will comply with all other provisions of the Declaration and By-Laws and the then-current prospectus of the Fund relative to the Subadvisor, Adviser and the Fund’s Trustees and officers.


V


LIMITATION OF LIABILITY OF THE SUBADVISOR


The Subadvisor shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss arising out of any investment or for any act or omission in the execution of Fund transactions for the Fund, except for misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties, or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder.  As used in this Section V, the term “Subadvisor” shall include directors, officers and employees of the Subadvisor as well as the entity itself.


VI


ACTITIVES OF THE SUBADVISOR


Except as otherwise provided below, the services of the Subadvisor to the Adviser are not to be deemed to be exclusive, the Subadvisor being free to render investment advisory and/or other services to other parties.  It is understood that trustees, officers, employees and holders of interests of the Fund are or may become interested in the Subadvisor, as directors, officers, employees, shareholders or otherwise and the directors, officers and employees of the Subadvisor are or may become similarly interested in the Fund.


Except as otherwise approved in writing by the Advisor, the Subadvisor, Jeffrey J. Unterreiner or other portfolio manager of the Fund (if any) and any of their respective affiliates will not serve, during the term of this Agreement, as an investment adviser, subadviser, Fund manager or in a similar capacity to any mutual fund which is not within the PROACTIVE Asset Allocation Funds family that has fund characteristics similar to that of the Fund, which fund characteristics are more particularly described in the draft of the Prospectus of the Fund included as part of Post-Effective Amendment No. 12 to the Fund’s registration statement on Form N-1A, a copy of which has been delivered to the Subadvisor.  The Subadvisor shall cause its affiliates to agree in writing to the terms of the immediately preceding sentence.

B.

This Agreement may be amended only if such amendment is approved by the “vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities” of the Fund and by vote of a majority of the Board of Trustees of the Trust who are not parties to this Agreement or interested persons of any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.


C.

The terms “specifically approved at least annually”, “vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities”, “assignment”, “affiliated person”, and “interested persons”, when used in this Agreement, shall have the respective meanings specified in, and shall be construed in a manner consistent with, the 1940 Act, subject, however, to such exemptions as may be granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.


VIII


FUND MANAGER


If a Fund manager (other than Jeffrey J. Unterreiner) approved by the Adviser in writing as specified in Section VII(B)(5) hereof is determined by the Adviser, in its sole discretion, to be unsatisfactory at any time after such approval, the Subadvisor may appoint another Fund manager to be a approved in writing by the Adviser to replace the unsatisfactory Fund manager with 90 days after the Subadvisor receives written notice of such dissatisfaction.


IX


MISCELLANEOUS


Any records required to be maintained and preserved pursuant to the provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31a-2 adopted under the 1940 Act which are prepared or maintained by the Subadvisor on behalf of the Fund are the property of the Fund and will be surrendered promptly to the Fund on request.


The holders of the record interests, Trustees, officers, employees and agents of the Fund shall not be personally bound by or liable hereunder, nor shall resort be had to their private property for the satisfaction of any obligation or claim hereunder.


Except to the extent the provisions of this Agreement are governed by federal law, they shall be governed by the laws of New York without reference to its choice of law rules.


This Agreement represents the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.


This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original.


If there are any conflicts between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the 1940 Act or the regulations promulgated thereunder, the provisions of the 1940 Act and such regulations shall control.



IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be signed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the day and year first above written.
