2020 Semi-Annual Shareholder Report
 
Convergence Long/Short Equity Fund (MARNX)
Convergence Market Neutral Fund (CPMNX)
 
Shareholder Letter (Unaudited)
 
Dear Shareholder:
 
We are pleased to provide to you the Semi-Annual report of the Convergence Long/Short Equity Fund and the Convergence Market Neutral Fund (the “Funds”) for the six-month period ended May 31, 2020.  We have been managing our Convergence Long/Short Equity Fund, incepted December 29, 2009, for over a decade.  Additionally, our Convergence Market Neutral Fund reached its four-year anniversary at the end of January 2020.  Both of our Funds employ the Convergence systematic long/short investment approach which seeks to benefit from fundamentally strong companies outperforming their weak fundamental counterparts. Over the long term, our Funds strive for strong total returns with the potential for downside risk mitigation through an active short.  We manage our Funds with the philosophy that over the long term, strong “fundamentals” outperform weak “fundamentals.”  Moreover, our Funds all utilize the Convergence proprietary stock ranking process which analyzes the domestic investment universe and helps to identify, quantify and rank strong and weak fundamentals.
 
Our long-term investors know that we utilize numerous factors grouped into factor composites such as Traditional Value and Accelerating Sales.  We monitor the performance of these composites to learn what the market is rewarding or punishing.  Over the six months ended May 31, 2020, we see that much of the positive spread, or differentiation, in stocks has been a combination of strong price momentum, historical growth and robust expected growth.  Conversely, there was negative contribution from fundamental tilts to Size, Leverage and Reasonable Valuation.  As we have stated before, this demonstrates the benefit of the fundamental factor diversification that we employ at Convergence. While it is unlikely for all fundamental tilts to generate a positive spread in short time periods, we believe these fundamental spreads based on sound economic principles can help produce real wealth for investors over time as they provide complimentary attributes.  We remain steadfast to our philosophy that strong fundamentals win in the long run.
 
Digging a bit deeper into the performance of the past six months, our Funds trailed the cap-weighted equity market benchmarks, with the bulk of the differential occurring in the abrupt “risk-seeking” rebound from the lows of March 2020.  Over these six months the largest factor contributors and detractors to our performance, both on the long and short sides of our portfolios, were the same for both the Long/Short Equity Fund and the Market Neutral Fund.  On the long side, our biggest factor contributor relative to each Fund’s broad market capitalization weighted benchmark was Size.  The bulk of this contribution came from our underweight to Size, which is unsurprising given that both Funds are less capitalization-focused than their benchmarks. Continuing with the long side, the largest detracting factor was Traditional Value, a factor that quantifies a stock’s valuation versus the selection universe using multiple ratios and parameters.  Traditional Value hurt our performance through both returns and our overweight allocation.
 
Shifting gears to the short side of the Funds, the largest contributing factor was Price Momentum.  Price Momentum contributed through both the factor return and our underweight allocation, but most prominently through the lighter weight.  Again, on the short side, for both Funds the largest factor detractor was Valuation, although both Funds were underweight Value relative to their benchmarks, the magnitude of the factor return
3

was able to overwhelm the underweight and make Valuation our largest detractor.  Interestingly, our long-term analysis shows that valuation and value-based factors are among the best performers.  One might say this is supported by the success of famous value-based investors like Warren Buffet and Benjamin Graham.  If long-term history is any indicator, there is still a benefit to have a Value-themed factor in one’s investment process.  Perhaps the unprecedented involvement of the Federal Reserve in the past decade has contributed to skew the investment landscape to the detriment of value investing.
 
At Convergence, we understand that our Funds will not outperform in every consecutive time period.  We do, however, firmly believe that investment decisions based on a sound and logical philosophy, paired with a long-term approach, can deliver superior results.  Buying reasonably valued stocks with strong earnings and sales growth, while shorting unprofitable stocks with wild valuations, seems like a recipe for success to us at Convergence.
 
Convergence Long/Short Equity Fund Performance
 
The objective of the Convergence Long/Short Equity Fund is to achieve long-term growth.  The Fund seeks to realize its investment objective by establishing long and short positions in equity securities of larger cap domestic companies with medium and large market capitalizations. The Fund will hold long (purchase) securities that Convergence believes will outperform the market, and it will sell short securities expected to underperform the market. Convergence constructs the portfolio as an actively managed equity strategy that adapts to ever changing market dynamics through a market cycle. The Fund intends to maintain a net long exposure (the market value of long positions minus the market value of short positions) of approximately 50% to 100% of the Fund’s total assets. Under normal market conditions, the Fund’s long positions may range from 90% to 150% of the Fund’s total assets, and its short positions may range from 20% to 70% of the Fund’s total assets. In making investment decisions for the Fund, Convergence utilizes a bottom-up approach that focuses on the individual strengths of the underlying companies and the relative and absolute attractiveness of the companies within each industry group.
 
In the six months ended May 31, 2020, the Convergence Long/Short Equity Fund returned -12.22%, versus the Russell 3000® Total Return Index at -2.91%.

Performance data quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance of the Fund may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end may be obtained by calling 1-877-677-9414.
 
Gross Expense Ratio on the Fund applicable to investors is 2.18%, the Expense Ratio net of dividends and interest on short positions is 1.32%. Pursuant to an operating expense limitation agreement between the Adviser and the Fund, the Adviser has agreed to contractually waive its management fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses to ensure that total annual fund operating expenses (exclusive of dividends or interest expenses on short positions, acquired fund fees and expenses, leverage expenses (i.e., any expenses incurred in connection with borrowings made by the Fund), tax expenses, brokerage commissions, and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed 1.50% of the average net assets for the Institutional Class of the Long/Short Equity Fund through March 31, 2021.

Convergence Market Neutral Fund Performance
 
The Convergence Market Neutral Fund’s objective is to seek positive absolute returns.  The Market Neutral Fund is intended to produce returns uncorrelated to the stock market, aiding diversification while striving to improve risk adjusted returns.  The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by establishing long and short positions in equity securities of domestic companies that are deemed to be attractive (and likely to increase in price), or unattractive (and likely to decrease in price).  The Fund is designed to be “market neutral,” targeting a portfolio designed to generate positive absolute returns with low correlation to the U.S. equity market over a normal business cycle.  The Fund focuses primarily on companies with medium and large market capitalizations. Convergence constructs the portfolio as an actively managed equity strategy that adapts to ever changing market dynamics through a market cycle.  The Fund intends to maintain a net long exposure (the market value of long positions minus the market value of short positions) of approximately 0% to 30% of the Fund’s total assets.  Under normal market conditions, the Fund’s long positions may range from 70% to 125% of the Fund’s total assets, and its short positions may range from 60% to 100% of the Fund’s total assets.  In making investment decisions for the Fund, Convergence utilizes a bottom-up approach that focuses on the individual strengths of the underlying companies and the relative and absolute attractiveness (and unattractiveness) of the companies within each industry group.
 
In the six months ended May 31, 2020, the Convergence Market Neutral Fund returned -10.41%, versus the ICE BofA Merrill Lynch 3 Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index at 0.73% and the S&P 500 Total Return Index at -2.10%.

The Convergence fundamental stock picking methodology is geared toward long holdings with strong cash flow, earnings, profits and other desirable financial characteristics. We strive to achieve these favorable portfolio statistics while never overpaying in terms of valuation. Our research has shown that, over time, companies with these characteristics have rewarded investors, as the portfolio statistics are signs of healthy and growing companies with competitively strong business models. The Convergence process separately seeks to identify companies with weak or declining fundamentals, and our research has shown this to be effective in sourcing alpha from shorting.
 
In closing, as we always say, stay fundamental.
 
Thank you for your support.

Mutual fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. Investments in small, micro and midcap companies involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility than larger capitalization companies. The Fund invests in foreign securities which involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. The Funds regularly make short sales of securities, which involves unlimited risk including the possibility that losses may exceed the original amount invested. However, a mutual fund investor’s risk is limited to one’s amount of investment in a mutual fund.

CONVERGENCE FUNDS
Expense Examples
(Unaudited)


As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds, and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (12/1/19 – 5/31/20).
 
 
Actual Expenses
 
The first lines of the following tables provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. In addition, you will be assessed fees for outgoing wire transfers, returned checks and stop payment orders at prevailing rates charged by U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, the Funds’ transfer agent. If you request that a redemption be made by wire transfer, currently a $15.00 fee is charged by the Funds’ transfer agent. IRA accounts will be charged a $15.00 annual maintenance fee. To the extent the Funds invest in shares of exchange-traded funds or other investment companies as part of its investment strategy, you will indirectly bear your proportionate share of any fees and expenses charged by the underlying funds in which the Funds invest in addition to the expenses of the Funds. Actual expenses of the underlying funds are expected to vary among the various underlying funds. These expenses are not included in the example. The example includes, but is not limited to, management fees, fund administration and accounting, custody and transfer agent fees. You may use the information in these lines, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
 
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
 
The second lines of the following tables provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the second lines of the tables are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

CONVERGENCE LONG/SHORT EQUITY FUND
Investment Highlights
(Unaudited)

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital growth. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in long and short positions in equity securities of domestic companies. The Fund focuses primarily on companies with medium and large market capitalizations, although the Fund may establish long and short positions in companies of any market capitalization. The Fund generally considers companies with medium and large market capitalizations to be those companies that comprise the upper half of the Russell 3000® Total Return Index. As of March 29, 2020, the market capitalization range of the upper half of the Russell 3000® Total Return Index was between $1.4 billion and $1,304.8 billion. The Fund will hold long (purchase) securities that the Adviser believes will outperform the market, and will sell short securities expected to underperform the market.

Organization
   
 
Trust for Professional Managers (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust under a Declaration of Trust dated May 29, 2001. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company.  The Convergence Long/Short Equity Fund (formerly known as the Convergence Core Plus Fund) and Convergence Market Neutral Fund (each, a “Fund” and together the “Funds”) represent distinct diversified series with their own investment objectives and policies within the Trust. The investment objective of the Convergence Long/Short Equity Fund is long-term capital growth. The investment objective of the Convergence Market Neutral Fund is positive absolute returns.  The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest at $0.001 par value. The assets of the Funds are segregated, and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held. The Convergence Long/Short Equity Fund became effective on December 29, 2009 and commenced operations on December 29, 2009 and January 31, 2013 for the Institutional Class and Investment Class shares, respectively.  Effective February 27, 2017 the Convergence Long/Short Equity Fund ceased offering its Investment Class shares and the remaining Investment Class shares converted to Institutional Class shares on March 27, 2017.  Effective January 25, 2018 the Convergence Long/Short Equity Fund’s Investment Class shares were permanently closed.  The Convergence Market Neutral Fund became effective on January 29, 2016 and commenced operations on January 29, 2016 for the Institutional Class shares.  Costs incurred by the Funds in connection with the organization, registration and the initial public offering of shares were paid by Convergence Investment Partners, LLC (the “Adviser”), the Funds’ investment adviser.
   
 
The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services–Investment Companies.”
   
(2)
Significant Accounting Policies
   
 
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of the financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
   
 
(a)  Investment Valuation
   
 
Each security owned by the Funds, including long and short positions of common stock and real estate investment trusts, that is listed on a securities exchange, except those listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”), is valued at its last sale price on that exchange on the date as of which assets are valued.  When the security is listed on more than one exchange, the Funds will use the price of the exchange that the Funds generally consider to be the principal exchange on which the stock is traded.
   
 
Fund securities listed on NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, which may not necessarily represent the last sale price.  If there has been no sale on

54

CONVERGENCE FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
May 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 
 
such exchange or on NASDAQ on such day, the security shall be valued at, (i) the mean between the most recent quoted bid and asked prices at the close of the exchange on such day or (ii) the last sales price on the Composite Market for the day such security is being valued. “Composite Market” means a consolidation of the trade information provided by national securities and foreign exchanges and over-the-counter markets, as published by an approved independent pricing service (“Pricing Service”).
   
 
Debt securities, including short-term debt instruments having a maturity of 60 days or less, are valued at the mean in accordance with prices supplied by a Pricing Service. Pricing Services may use various valuation methodologies such as the mean between the bid and the asked prices, matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and dealer quotations. If a price is not available from a Pricing Service, the most recent quotation obtained from one or more broker-dealers known to follow the issue will be obtained. Quotations will be valued at the mean between the bid and the offer. In the absence of available quotations, the securities will be priced at fair value, as described below. Any discount or premium is accreted or amortized using the constant yield method until maturity.
   
 
Redeemable securities issued by open-end, registered investment companies are valued at the net asset value (“NAV”) of such companies for purchase and/or redemption orders placed on that day. If, on a particular day, a share of an investment company is not listed on NASDAQ, such security’s fair value will be determined as described below. Money market mutual funds are valued at cost. If cost does not represent current market value the securities will be priced at fair value.
   
 
When market quotations are not readily available, any security or other asset is valued at its fair value as determined under procedures approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees.  These fair value procedures will also be used to price a security when corporate events, events in the securities market or world events cause the Adviser to believe that a security’s last sale price may not reflect its actual fair market value.  The intended effect of using fair value pricing procedures is to ensure that the Funds are accurately priced.
   
 
FASB Accounting Standards Codification, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” Topic 820 (“ASC 820”), establishes an authoritative definition of fair value and sets out a hierarchy for measuring fair value.  ASC 820 requires an entity to evaluate certain factors to determine whether there has been a significant decrease in volume and level of activity for the security such that recent transactions and quoted prices may not be determinative of fair value and further analysis and adjustment may be necessary to estimate fair value.  ASC 820 also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value in those instances as well as expanded disclosure of valuation levels for each class of investments.  These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

   
Level 1—
Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
   
Level 2—
Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
   
Level 3—
Significant unobservable inputs (including a Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The Funds measure Level 3 activity as of the end of the period.  For the six-months ended May 31, 2020, the Funds did not have any significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 securities) used in determining fair value.  Therefore, a reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value is not applicable.
   
 
The Funds did not invest in derivative securities or engage in hedging activities during the six-months ended May 31, 2020.
   
 
(b)  Short Positions
   
 
The Funds may sell a security they do not own in anticipation of a decline in the fair value of that security. When a fund sells a security short, it must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the broker-dealer through which it made the short sale.  A gain, limited to the price at which a fund sold the security short, or a loss, unlimited in size, will be recognized upon the termination of a short sale.  For financial statement purposes, an amount equal to the settlement amount is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as a liability.  The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the short positions.  Subsequent fluctuations in the market prices of the securities sold, but not yet purchased, may require purchasing the securities at prices which could differ from the amount reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.  The Funds are liable for any dividends or interest payable on securities while those securities are in a short position. Such amounts are recorded on the ex-dividend date as a dividend expense, and interest expense is accrued daily. As collateral for its short positions, the Funds are required under the 1940 Act to maintain segregated assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. The segregated assets are valued consistent with Note 2a above. The amount of segregated assets is required to be adjusted daily to the extent additional collateral is required based on the change in fair value of the securities sold short. The Funds’ securities sold short and deposits for short sales are held with one major securities broker-dealer. The Funds do not require this broker-dealer to maintain collateral in support of the receivable for proceeds on securities sold short.
   
 
(c)  Federal Income Taxes
   
 
The Funds comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and make the requisite distributions of income and capital gains to their shareholders sufficient to relieve them from all or substantially all federal income taxes. Therefore, no federal income tax provision has been provided.
   
 
As of and during the six-months ended May 31, 2020, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the six-months ended May 31, 2020, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
   
 
(d)  Distributions to Shareholders
   
 
The Funds will distribute any net investment income and any net capital gains at least annually. Distributions from net realized gains for book purposes may include short-term capital gains. All short-term capital gains are included in ordinary income for tax

57

CONVERGENCE FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
May 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 
 
purposes. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Funds may also pay a special distribution at the end of the calendar year to comply with federal tax requirements.
   
 
(e)  Use of Estimates
   
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
   
 
(f)  Share Valuation
   
 
The NAV per share of each Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the fair value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) by the total number of shares outstanding for the Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. The Funds’ shares will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange is closed for trading.  The Funds do not charge a redemption fee, and therefore the offering and redemption price per share are equal to a Fund’s NAV per share.
   
 
(g)  Allocation of Income, Expenses and Gains/Losses
   
 
Expenses associated with a specific fund in the Trust are charged to that Fund. Common Trust expenses are typically allocated evenly between the funds of the Trust, or by other equitable means.
   
 
(h)  Other
   
 
Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Funds determine the gain or loss from investment transactions on the identified cost basis by comparing original cost of the security lot sold with the net sale proceeds. Dividend income and expense is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income and expense is recognized on an accrual basis. Dividend income from real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) is recognized on the ex-date and included in dividend income.  The calendar year-end classification of distributions received from REITs during the fiscal year are reported subsequent to year end; accordingly, the Funds estimate the character of REIT distributions based on the most recent information available and adjust for actual classifications in the calendar year the information is reported.
   
 
Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, net of any reclaims, have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

The tax basis of distributable earnings for tax and financial reporting purposes differs principally due to the deferral of losses on wash sales, transfers in-kind, and unsettled short losses for the Funds.
   
 
At November 30, 2019, the Convergence Market Neutral Fund had the following capital losses remaining, which will be carried forward indefinitely to offset future realized capital gains.  To the extent the Convergence Market Neutral Fund realizes future net capital gains, taxable distributions to its shareholders will be first offset by any unused capital loss carryovers from the year ended November 30, 2019.

Income and capital gains distributions may differ from GAAP, primarily due to timing differences in the recognition of income, gains and losses, and equalization by the Funds. To the extent that these differences are attributable to permanent book and tax accounting differences, the components of net assets have been adjusted.
   
 
Additionally, GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting.  These reclassifications are due to equalization and non-deductible excise tax and have no effect on net assets or NAV per share.  For the year ended November 30, 2019, the following table shows the reclassifications made:

Investment Adviser
   
 
The Trust has an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Adviser to furnish investment advisory services to the Funds. Under the terms of the Agreement, each Fund compensates the Adviser for its management services at the annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
   
 
The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse each Fund’s other expenses at least through the expiration dates listed below, at the discretion of the Adviser and the Board of Trustees, to the extent necessary to ensure that the Fund’s operating expenses (exclusive of front-end or contingent deferred loads, Rule 12b-1 plan fees, shareholder servicing plan fees, taxes, leverage (i.e., any expenses incurred in connection with borrowings made by the Fund), interest (including interest incurred in connection with bank and custody overdrafts), brokerage commissions and other transactional expenses, expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization, dividends or interest on short positions, acquired fund fees and expenses or extraordinary expenses such as litigation) do not exceed the expense limitation caps listed below of each Fund’s average daily net assets.

Recent Market Events
   
 
U.S. and international markets have experienced significant periods of volatility in recent years due to a number of economic, political and global macro factors including the impact of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic, which has resulted in related public health issues, growth concerns in the U.S. and overseas, temporary and permanent layoffs in the private sector, rising unemployment claims, and reduced consumer spending, all of which may lead to a substantial economic downturn or recession in the U.S. and global economies. The recovery from the effects of COVID-19 is uncertain and may last for an extended period of time. These developments as well as other events, such as the upcoming U.S. presidential election, could result in further market volatility and negatively affect financial asset prices, the liquidity of certain securities and the normal operations of securities exchanges and other markets. As a result, the risk environment remains elevated. The Fund’s investment adviser will monitor developments and seek to manage the Fund in a manner consistent with achieving the Fund’s investment objective, but there can be no assurance that it will be successful in doing so.

A NOTE ON FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
 
Except for historical information contained in this report for the Funds, the matters discussed in this report may constitute forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe-harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These include any adviser or portfolio manager predictions, assessments, analyses or outlooks for individual securities, industries, market sectors and/or markets. These statements involve risks and uncertainties. In addition to the general risks described for the Funds in the current Prospectus, other factors bearing on this report include the accuracy of the Adviser’s or portfolio managers’ forecasts and predictions, and the appropriateness of the investment programs designed by the Adviser or portfolio managers to implement their strategies efficiently and effectively. Any one or more of these factors, as well as other risks affecting the securities markets and investment instruments generally, could cause the actual results of the Funds to differ materially as compared to benchmarks associated with the Funds.
 
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited)
 
The Funds have adopted proxy voting policies and procedures that delegate to the Adviser the authority to vote proxies. A description of the Funds’ proxy voting policies and procedures is available without charge, upon request, by calling the Funds toll free at 1-877-677-9414. A description of these policies and procedures is also included in the Funds’ Statement of Additional Information, which is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

HOUSEHOLDING (Unaudited)
 
In an effort to decrease costs, the Funds intend to reduce the number of duplicate prospectuses and annual and semi-annual reports you receive by sending only one copy of each to those addresses shared by two or more accounts and to shareholders the Funds reasonably believe are from the same family or household. Once implemented, if you would like to discontinue householding for your accounts, please call the Funds toll-free at 1-877-677-9414 to request individual copies of these documents. Once the Funds receive notice to stop householding, the Funds will begin sending individual copies 30 days after receiving your request. This policy does not apply to account statements.
