China has been trying to slow their economy and real estate markets since the first of the year by raising interest rates, capital reserves of banks and taxes on real estate gains.  So far, we believe China has been successful, as the 1st quarter GDP ending March 31, 2011 showed a gain of 9.4% versus a gain of 1.8% GDP in the USA. Furthermore, the U.S. Dollar has been volatile due to the European Greek, Irish, Spanish, Icelandic and Italian debt crises and the Chinese Yuan has strengthened versus the dollar by 5% due to the turmoil in the U.S. debt ceiling debate and deficit spending of the federal and state governments. We still believe that a dramatic consumer oriented portfolio of the People’s Republic of China companies will outperform World markets once the U.S. debt ceiling situation comes to a conclusion. Developing a strong consumer society is the priority of the Chinese government-tightening package, and we will invest accordingly. China’s total tightening package to fight inflation has resulted in 10 bank reserve rate increases, but we believe that since China got out of a short economic slump two years ago and has since returned to fast growth, it is well-positioned to manage its economy.  Among other things, its relatively strong cash position of its companies, individuals and national government will help to accomplish that goal.

The Fund’s top five holdings as of April 30, 2011 were as follows:

 
1.
China Redstone Group, Inc.
6.57%

ANNUAL REPORT

Throughout the last twelve months, the global economy has been dramatically slowed by the bursting of the debt bubble (mostly in Europe). In response, most countries have printed massive amounts of paper money in an effort to bail out mistakes and failures of the past. Only China’s tightening package, which has raised bank reserve rates 10 times from 15.0% to 20.5% and increased interest rates 6 times since January 1st, can be called a “slow down” and still result in GDP growth of 8% to 9%; China’s banks needed no bailouts (i.e., they did not need any printed paper money to survive), nor did their auto industry need any bailouts. In fact, 4 of the top 10 banks in the world are Chinese and all of those are profitable. In addition, the domestic Chinese auto market has surpassed the domestic US auto market to become #1 in unit sales in the world, with annualized unit sales of 18 million per year versus 6 million per year here in the USA domestic market in 2010.

The GDP of China continues to grow at high single digits versus very small positive growth rates in developed Western countries. The Chinese government continues to raise interest rates (5 times in the last 6 months) and bank capital reserves are now 20.5%, up from a low of 15.0%. The continual raising of interest rates has directly affected the Chinese stock markets more than 30% from the peak in 2009. For example, price/earnings ratios have dropped from 20 times earnings per share to 12 times earnings per share on the Shanghai exchange. This event has crossed the Pacific and has had the effect of lowering Chinese ADR’s price/earnings ratios to 2-5 times earnings per share, causing the value of the Fund to decrease, even while the companies owned by the Fund are reporting very high growth of revenue and earnings for all 2010 and 1st quarter of 2011.

Year to date 2011, the Fund’s Class A shares have lost 33.79% of their value while America’s S&P 500 has gained 9.06%. The Halter USX China Index gained 9.22% and the MSCI AC Asia Pacific Ex Japan Index gained 6.38% during the period. One difference in performance is attributable to the Fund’s policy of not investing in financial institutions or any real estate development companies represented in the Fund’s holdings, as companies in these sectors are often under direct government control and limit most of their loans to only the largest state-owned enterprises. However, the Halter USX China Index and MSCI AC Asia Pacific Ex Japan Index both hold the entire banking group, which now has several large NYSE-listed banks and also large real estate development companies. Additionally, the indices reflect the performance of IPO deals not available to the Fund. The indices are able to “buy” the stock at the IPO price and realize huge gains on paper. This is not possible in the real world of Wall Street, where allocations of IPO’s are given to only the largest customers that generate the most commissions. Finally, the indices include a number of export-focused Chinese companies, while the Fund purchases, among other things, domestically-focused Chinese companies.  Over the past few months, the Fund has been hurt by a number of questionable research reports regarding small and mid-cap domestically-focused Chinese companies.  These negative "short-call" research reports have suggested that many Chinese companies are complete frauds, which has encouraged shorting of, and discouraged investment in, these companies.  Two of these companies have been proven to be frauds, but others have reported that they are hiring new, upgraded auditors and clearing up or revising their financial statements for SEC reporting purposes.  From our perspective, it appears that most, if not all, domestic-focused Chinese small and mid-cap companies have been tainted by a few bad apples.  A lot of these companies are now trading below reported book value, cash value per share and tangible book value.  While we recognize that some of these companies' financials will be revised, the focus of the Fund will continue to be on the fundamentals of small and mid-cap domestic companies that profit from increased wages, personal income and domestic demand in China.

The Fund had short-term underperformance, but we still believe in the investing approach of concentrating on companies that will grow with the Chinese domestic economy. For the fiscal year April 30, 2010 to April 30, 2011 the Fund has decreased, but we believe there is extreme value in our portfolio as most of its holdings have no debt and trade below book value, tangible book value or cash value per share.

We continue to believe the People’s Republic of China is still the best country to invest in due to the country’s superior GDP growth, fast-growing middle class with higher incomes, and little to no debt. We believe the commodity inflation imported into the People’s Republic of China from the west will decline as western countries remain in recession or recession-like economies. As manager of the Fund, I have positioned the Fund to focus on domestically-oriented companies. Earnings of the companies in our portfolio have consistently met or exceeded expectations, and we have confidence they will continue to do so for the remainder of 2011. If the single digit price-to-earnings ratio average they now trade at holds, we could be in a position to substantially narrow our year-to-date loss during the rest of 2011.

Thank you for your support and continued faith in our ability to guide your investments.

Your Mainland China Fund Manager,
Stephen L. Parr
Portfolio Manager and President of The USX China Fund

ANNUAL REPORT
 
The performance information quoted in this annual report assumes the reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions, if any, and represents past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate and, therefore, an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total return calculations reflect expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers in the applicable periods. See financial highlights for periods where fees were waived and/or reimbursed.
 
The above graph depicts the performance of The USX China Fund versus the S&P 500 Total Return Index, the MSCI AC Asia Pacific Excluding Japan Index and the Halter USX China Index. The S&P 500 Total Return Index by Standard and Poor’s Corp. is a capitalization-weighted index comprising 500 issues listed on various exchanges, representing the performance of the stock market generally. The MSCI AC Asia Pacific Excluding Japan Index by Morgan Stanley Capital International is a capitalization weighted index that monitors the performance of stocks from the Asia Pacific region excluding the country of Japan. The Halter USX China Index by the Halter Financial Group is a modified market capitalization weighted index comprised of U.S. exchange listed securities of companies that derive a majority of their revenues from the People’s Republic of China. Please note that indices do not take into account any fees and expenses of investing in the individual securities that they track, and individuals cannot invest directly in any index.
 
As with any fund, save an index fund, that commonly compares its performance to the S&P 500 Total Return Index, MSCI AC Asia Pacific Excluding Japan Index or Halter USX China Index, such a comparison may be said to be inappropriate because of the dissimilarity between the Fund’s investments and the securities comprising the indices; so too with The USX China Fund, which will not invest in certain securities comprising these indices.

Information About Your Fund’s Expenses (Unaudited)


As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. The example below is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The table below illustrates an example investment of $1,000 at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period of 11/01/10 through 04/30/11. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Actual Expenses

The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this row, 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 row under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section of the table provides information about the hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s 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 Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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 section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher. For more information on transactional costs, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

360 Funds (formerly known as the Parr Family of Funds), (the “Trust”), was organized on February 25, 2005 as a Delaware statutory trust. The Trust is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). The sole series of shares of the Trust is The USX China Fund (the “Fund”). The Fund is a non-diversified Fund. As a non-diversified Fund, it may invest a significant portion of its assets in a small number of companies. The Fund’s investment objective is long term growth of capital. Effective March 15, 2011, the Fund’s investment adviser is Matrix 360 Adviser, LLC (the “Adviser”). Prior to March 15, 2011, the Fund’s investment adviser was Parr Financial Group, LLC (“Parr” or the “Former Adviser”). The Fund offers two classes of shares, Class A and Class C shares. The Class C shares commenced operations on July 1, 2005. The Class A shares commenced operations on September 23, 2005. Each class differs as to sales and redemption charges and ongoing fees. Income and realized/unrealized gains or losses are allocated to each class based on relative share balances.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

a)         Investment Valuation - Common stocks and other equity securities listed on a securities exchange or quoted on a national market system are valued at 4:00 p.m., New York time, on the day of valuation. Price information on listed stocks is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. Equity securities that are traded on the NASDAQ National Market System, for which quotes are readily available, are valued at the official closing price. Securities that are listed on an exchange but which are not traded on the valuation date are valued at the most recent bid quotation. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy described below. When an equity security is valued by an independent pricing service using factors other than market quotations or the market is considered inactive, they will be categorized in level 2. Money market funds are valued at their net asset value of $1.00 per share and are categorized as level 1. Securities with maturities of 60 days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value and would be categorized as level 2. The Fund normally uses pricing services to obtain market quotations. Securities and assets for which representative market quotations are not readily available or which cannot be accurately valued using the Fund’s normal pricing procedures are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under policies approved by the Trustees. Fair value pricing may be used, for example, in situations where (i) a portfolio security, such as a small-cap stock, is so thinly traded that there have been no transactions for that stock over an extended period of time or the validity of a market quotation received is questionable; (ii) the exchange on which the portfolio security is principally traded closes early; (iii) trading of the particular portfolio security is halted during the day and does not resume prior to the Fund’s net asset value calculation; or (iv) the security or warrant is a restricted security not registered under federal securities laws purchased through a private placement not eligible for resale.  In addition, for securities that are halted for several days, pursuant to fair value procedures adopted by the Fund’s Board of Trustees, Parr will determine an adjustment to the price.  The relevant inputs that Parr may consider in establishing the fair value include, but would not be limited to; the general market conditions in the Chinese reverse merger stock market and the overall financial market; disclosures related to the company’s auditors; the status of the company’s 8k, 10k, and other filings with the SEC and NASDAQ; participation by the company, CFO, investment banker, trader and research analysts in conferences, road shows, conference calls and 1-on-1 telephone calls or in-person meetings; channel checks and/or visitation to prove-up real business operations; comments from money managers, investment banks and research analysts; and, review of the Bloomberg Chinese Reverse Mergers Index (CHINARTO:IND).  Consistent with the foregoing, the Trustees have adopted guidelines and instructions for the valuation of restricted securities held by the Fund focusing on such important factors, among others, as valuation, liquidity and availability of relevant information. These guidelines are implemented by the Fund’s Fair Value Committee and Parr, which, subject to the oversight of the Adviser and the Fair Value Committee, reviews relevant market conditions for any restricted security held by the Fund on a daily basis to determine the appropriate value for such restricted security. Because a fair value determination is based on an assessment of the value of the security pursuant to the policies approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees rather than a market price, the fair value price may differ substantially from the price at which the security may ultimately be traded or sold.  The differences could be material.  As of April 30, 2011, sixteen (16) securities were fair valued as determined by the Board of Trustees.

c)         Restricted Securities - The Fund may invest in restricted securities and warrants (“Restricted Securities”) through purchases of privately-offered securities of publicly traded companies located or doing business primarily in China. The investments in 49,968 shares and 3,997 warrants of Asia Green Agriculture Corp., 20,000 preferred shares of China Dredging Group and 3,111 shares of Moqizone Holding Corp., were initiated by Parr as private placement offerings. Other clients of Parr can also participate in private placements. The securities that are part of the private placement offerings are restricted from sale until such time as their registration becomes effective and the restrictions are lifted.

Parr, subject to the oversight and approval of the Adviser and the Fair Value Committee, determines the fair value price of Restricted Securities on a daily basis using, among other things, factors and criteria established by the Trustees. These factors and criteria include, without limitation, the nature and duration of the restrictions on the disposition of the Restricted Security; market trading in the applicable company’s publicly traded stock (the “Reference Stock”); government and economic matters affecting China; earnings per share; free cash flows; debt levels; revenue growth; and, information regarding the applicable company and its business. Using these factors and criteria, these instruments may be classified in either level 2 or level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Using the Fair Value Pricing Instructions, Parr seeks to determine the price that is representative of the amount that the Fund might reasonably expect to receive for the Restricted Securities upon their current sale. Since the fair value of these Restricted Securities is determined pursuant to policies approved by the Trustees rather than by use of market prices, shareholders may receive more or less proceeds or shares from redemptions or purchases than they would if market prices were available for the Restricted Securities. Depending on the relative significance of valuation inputs, these instruments may be classified in either Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under GAAP, the Fund discloses fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described 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 the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

c)         Federal Income Taxes - The Trust’s policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

As of and during the year ended April 30, 2011, the Fund did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax expenses.  The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax liability as income tax expense in the statement of operations. During the year ended April 30, 2011, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties. The Fund is not subject to examination by U.S. Federal tax authorities for tax years before 2008. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and Delaware state.

d)         Distributions to Shareholders - Dividends from net investment income and distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, will be declared and paid at least annually. Income and capital gain distributions, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. GAAP requires that permanent financial reporting differences relating to shareholder distributions be reclassified to paid-in capital or net realized gains. For the year ended April 30, 2011, net investment loss in the amount of $247,986 was reclassified to paid-in capital. This reclassification had no effect on net assets.

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)         Other - Investment and shareholder transactions are recorded on trade date. The Fund determines the gain or loss realized from the investment transactions by comparing the original cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds.  Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date or as soon as information is available to the Fund and interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

g)         Subsequent Events - In accordance with GAAP, management has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of the financial statements and has noted no such events.

ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (continued)

Effective March 15, 2011, the Adviser and the Fund have entered into an Expense Limitation Agreement (“Expense Agreement”) under which the Adviser has agreed to waive or reduce its fees and to assume other expenses of the Fund, if necessary, in an amount that limits annual operating expenses (exclusive of interest, taxes, brokerage fees and commissions, extraordinary expenses and payments, if any, under the Rule 12b-1 Plan). Prior to March 15, 2011 the Former Adviser and the Fund had entered into a substantially similar Expense Agreement. It is expected that the Expense Agreement will continue from year-to-year provided such continuance is approved by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. Pursuant to the Expense Agreement, the Adviser and Former Adviser have agreed to reimburse the Fund to the extent that total annualized expenses exceed 2.00% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the period from May 1, 2010 through March 14, 2011, the Former Adviser waived advisory fees of $149,794. For the period from March 15, 2011 through April 30, 2011, the Adviser waived advisory fees of $12,199 and reimbursed expenses of $11,287. At April 30, 2011, the Adviser and Former Adviser owed the Fund $16,838 and $11,287, respectively under the Expense Agreement.

Effective March 15, 2011, the Adviser has retained the Former Adviser to serve as the sub-adviser to the Fund. The Adviser has agreed to pay the Former Adviser an annual sub-advisory fee of 0.35% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.

One trustee of the Fund is also an officer of the Adviser. Certain officers of the Fund are also employees of the Adviser and Sub-Adviser.

The Fund has entered into an Investment Company Services Agreement (“ICSA”) with Matrix 360 Administration, LLC (formerly Matrix Capital Group, Inc.) (“Matrix”). Pursuant to the ICSA, Matrix will provide day-to-day operational services to the Fund including, but not limited to, accounting, administrative, transfer agent, dividend disbursement, registrar and record keeping services.

For its services, Matrix receives a minimum fee of $6,250 per month, plus out of pocket expenses.  In addition, the following asset based fees will apply at the following breakpoints: 0.10% on assets between $20 million and $50 million; 0.075% on the next $50 million; 0.05% on the next $100 million; 0.03% in excess of $200 million of daily net assets. For the year ended April 30, 2011, Matrix earned $87,284, with $8,422 remaining payable at April 30, 2011.

Pursuant to the ICSA, Matrix will provide chief compliance officer services to the Fund.  For these services Matrix will receive a fee of $18,000 per year, plus out of pocket expenses. For the year ended April 30, 2011, Matrix earned $18,000 with $1,500 remaining payable at April 30, 2011.

Certain officers of the Fund are also employees of Matrix.  An officer of Matrix is also an officer of the Adviser.

The Fund has entered into a Distribution Agreement with Matrix Capital Group, Inc. (“Matrix Capital”). Pursuant to the Distribution Agreement, Matrix Capital will provide distribution services to the Fund. Matrix Capital serves as underwriter/distributor of the Fund. Pursuant to the Distribution Agreement, Matrix receives $7,200 per year from the Fund. Distribution fees paid to Matrix Capital were paid from accruals made pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act.

An officer of Matrix Capital is also an officer of the Adviser.

A separate plan of distribution has been adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for each class of shares. With respect to Class A shares, the plan provides that the Fund may pay a servicing or Rule 12b-1 fee of up to 0.25% annually of the Fund’s average net assets, and up to 1.00% annually of the Fund’s average net assets attributable to Class C shares to persons or institutions for performing certain servicing functions for the Fund’s shareholders. Under the plan the Fund may pay for any activity primarily intended to result in the sale of shares of the Fund and the servicing of shareholder accounts, provided that the Trustees have approved the category of expenses for which payment is being made.

The distribution plans for the Class A and Class C shares in The USX China Fund took effect September 23, 2005 and July 1, 2005, respectively. For the year ended April 30, 2011, the Fund accrued $6,601 in 12b-1 expenses attributable to Class C shares.

TAX MATTERS

For U.S. Federal income tax purposes, the cost of securities owned, gross appreciation, gross depreciation, and net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) of investments at April 30, 2011 were as follows:

Cost  
Gross Appreciation
 
Gross Depreciation
 
Net Depreciation
$  10,374,114  
$  258,132
 
$  (4,093,472)
 
$  (3,835,340)

The difference between book basis unrealized depreciation and tax-basis unrealized depreciation is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.

As of April 30, 2011, the Fund’s components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Unrealized Depreciation
  $ (3,835,340 )
Capital Loss Carryforwards
    (6,295,912 )
     Distributable Earnings, Net
  $ (10,131,252 )

The carryforward losses shown above differ from corresponding accumulated net investment income and accumulated net realized gain (loss) figures reported in the statement of assets and liabilities due to certain temporary book/tax differences due to the tax deferral of post-October losses.

Under current tax law, net capital losses realized after October 31st may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following fiscal year. The Fund’s carryforward losses and post-October losses are determined only at the end of each fiscal year. As of April 30, 2011 the Fund elected to defer net capital losses as indicated in the chart below.

CONCENTRATION OF RISK

The USX China Fund will normally invest over 80% of its assets in stocks issued by companies listed on U.S. exchanges whose principal business is located in or centered on the People’s Republic of China. Investing in companies from one geographic region may pose additional risks inherent to a region’s economic and political situation.

7.
BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP

The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of the fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. As of April 30, 2011, Sterne, Agee & Leach, Inc. held 62.67%% of The USX China Fund Class A shares in an omnibus account for the sole benefit of its customers. As of April 30, 2011, Sterne, Agee & Leach, Inc. held 88.47% of The USX China Fund Class C shares in omnibus accounts for the sole benefit of their customers.

8.
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts that may contain a variety of representations and warranties and provide general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, management considers the risk of loss from such claims to be remote.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

A Special Meeting of Shareholders was held on June 17, 2011 to consider and approve the following:

Consideration and Approval of Proposed New Advisory Agreement
 
At its meeting held on March 14, 2011, the Board of Trustees considered the proposed appointment of Matrix 360 as advisor to the Fund.  The Board, including the Independent Trustees voting in person, voted unanimously to approve the Proposed Advisory Agreement between Matrix 360 and the Fund and to recommend approval of the Proposed Advisory Agreement to the shareholders of the Fund.

In considering the Proposed Advisory Agreement, the Board took into account a variety of factors and reviewed a significant amount of information. The Board also evaluated and considered, among other things, written information contained in a memorandum provided in advance of the meeting by Matrix 360, which included, without limitation, a summary of the proposal, information about Matrix 360, its principals and affiliates, and their past advisory experience (the “Matrix Memorandum”).
 
The Board did not identify any particular information that was all-important or controlling.  The approval determination was made on the basis of each Trustee’s business judgment after considering all of the factors taken as a whole.  Below is a discussion of the information considered by the Board, as well as the Board’s conclusion with respect to the Proposed Advisory Agreement.
 
The Board noted that, at the time of the meeting, Matrix 360’s affiliated entity, Matrix Capital, whose ownership and portfolio management personnel are similar to Matrix 360, is also a registered investment adviser that provides investment advice and portfolio management for unit investment trusts, and the Board reviewed performance information related to the unit investment trusts.  Matrix 360’s managing member was available to answer the Board’s questions in regards to Matrix 360.  The Board discussed with Matrix 360’s advisory experience, their experience servicing mutual funds in the administration and broker-dealer areas since 2004, their financial resources, their existing relationships with other financial institutions and service providers, their investment adviser experience, their enhanced research tools that would be shared with Parr as portfolio manager for the Fund and their potential to enhance the Fund’s current distribution network and to ultimately grow the Fund’s assets.

Additional information (Unaudited) 

 
In addition, the Board noted that if approved by the Fund’s shareholders, Matrix 360 would retain Parr as the Fund’s sub-advisor, such that Parr would continue to be responsible for the Fund’s day-to-day portfolio management. The Board considered that as investment adviser, Matrix 360 would supervise Parr and provide operations, compliance and administrative support to Parr and the Fund.  The Board also noted that the terms of the Proposed Advisory Agreement were substantially the same as the Fund’s previous advisory agreement with Parr.
 
Furthermore, in deciding on whether to approve the Proposed Advisory Agreement, the Trustees considered numerous factors, including:
 
 
(i)
The nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided by Matrix 360.  In this regard, the Board reviewed the services to be provided by Matrix 360 to the Fund including, without limitation, its procedures for serving as investment adviser to the Fund and assuring compliance with the Fund’s investment objective and limitations, its proposed coordination of services among the Fund’s service providers, its compliance procedures and practices, and its proposed efforts to promote the Fund and assist in its distribution.  The Board noted that Matrix Capital employees already serve the Trust as chief compliance officer and assistant treasurer, and that Matrix 360 had indicated, if needed, it would in the future provide from among its employees officers who will serve as officers of the Trust without additional compensation from the Fund.  After reviewing the foregoing information and further information provided in the Matrix Memorandum (e.g., descriptions of Matrix’s business and Matrix 360’s Form ADV), the Board concluded that the quality, extent, and nature of the services to be provided by Matrix 360 are satisfactory and adequate for the Fund.

 
(ii)
The investment performance of Matrix 360’s management.  Matrix 360 is a newly formed registered investment adviser, and does not have a performance record.  However, because Matrix 360 shares similar ownership and portfolio management personnel with Matrix Capital, the Board reviewed the performance of current and recent clients of Matrix Capital with the performance of benchmark indices and comparable peer group indices and considered this performance in the context of the investment oversight responsibility that Matrix 360 will have with respect to Parr.  Specifically, while recognizing that the management of a unit investment trust has limited applicability to the services Matrix 360 would provide as investment adviser for the Fund since it does not involve ongoing active investment management, the Board nevertheless considered Matrix Capital’s performance information in evaluating the capabilities of Matrix 360 personnel to fulfill their proposed role overseeing management of the Fund.  After discussing Matrix Capital’s experience in managing unit investment trusts, its historical investment performance, the expectation that Matrix 360 will supervise Parr in the management of the Fund and other factors, the Board concluded that the investment performance of Matrix 360’s portfolio management personnel (based on prior activities for Matrix Capital) has been satisfactory.

 
(iii) 
The costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by Matrix 360 and its affiliates from the relationship with the Fund.  In this regard, the Board considered Matrix 360’s staffing, personnel, and methods of operating; Matrix 360’s compliance policies and procedures; the financial condition of Matrix 360 and the level of commitment the principal of Matrix 360 would have to the Fund and Matrix 360; the asset levels of the Fund; and the overall expenses of the Fund.  The Board discussed the Fund’s proposed Expense Limitation Agreement with Matrix 360, and considered that the proposed Expense Limitation Agreement with Matrix 360 is substantially similar to the Fund’s Expense Limitation Agreement with Parr.

The Board also considered potential benefits to Matrix 360 in managing the Fund, including promotion of Matrix 360’s name.  The Board compared the expense cap of the Fund to a peer group of other funds comparable to the Fund in terms of the type of fund and the nature of the investment strategy and markets invested in, among other factors.  The Board determined that, while the Fund’s expense cap is higher than the other funds, the expense cap is nonetheless reasonably close to the average expense cap of its peer group, especially when considering that the Fund has among the least assets under management of the peer group and invests solely in companies in mainland China.

Following the foregoing comparisons and upon further consideration and discussion of the foregoing, the Board concluded that the fees to be paid to Matrix 360 by the Fund are fair and reasonable in relation to the nature and quality of the services to be provided by Matrix 360.

 
(iv)
The extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether advisory fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefits of the Fund’s investors.  In this regard, the Board considered that the Fund’s proposed fee arrangements with Matrix 360 involve both a management fee and an Expense Limitation Agreement.  The Board determined that the Fund has experienced benefits from a similar Expense Limitation Agreement in prior years.  The Board noted that, while the management fee would remain the same at all asset levels, the Fund will benefit from economies of scale under its agreements with service providers other than Matrix 360.  Additionally, the Fund has experienced benefits from the most recent similar Expense Limitation Agreement and, due to the size of the Fund, the Fund would likely continue to experience benefits from the proposed Expense Limitation Agreement until the Fund grows to a level where Matrix 360 would receive its full fee.  Following further discussion of the Fund’s asset levels, expectations for growth and levels of fees, the Board determined that the Fund’s proposed fee arrangement with Matrix 360 would provide benefits through the proposed Expense Limitation Agreement and that, at the Fund’s current and projected asset levels for the next year, the Fund’s proposed arrangement with Matrix 360 is fair and reasonable.

Conclusion

Based on its review, including its consideration of the fact that Matrix 360’s compensation under the Proposed Advisory Agreement is the same as the compensation previously paid to Parr as the Fund’s investment adviser, the Board concluded that the Proposed Advisory Agreement provides for fair and equitable compensation in light of the nature and quality of the services to be provided by Matrix 360 to the Fund and its shareholders, and that approval of the Proposed Agreement was in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders.

Consideration and Approval of Proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement

At its meeting held on March 14, 2011, the Board of Trustees considered the proposed appointment of Parr as sub-advisor to the Fund.  The Board, including the Independent Trustees voting in person, voted unanimously to approve the Proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement between Matrix 360 and Parr and to recommend approval of the Proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement to the shareholders of the Fund.
  
In considering the Proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board took into account a variety of factors and reviewed a significant amount of information, including information received at prior meetings of the Board. The Board also evaluated and considered, among other things, written information contained in a memorandum provided in advance of the meeting by Parr, including, without limitation, Parr’s Form ADV and information related to Parr’s past investment performance (the “Parr Memorandum”), as well as answers to questions posed by the Board to the managing member of Parr, who was present at the meeting. The Board discussed Parr’s past performance, Parr’s proposed services as sub-advisor to the Fund and Parr’s approval of the Matrix 360 proposal.
 
The Board did not identify any particular information that was all-important or controlling.  The approval determination was made on the basis of each Trustee’s business judgment after considering all of the factors taken as a whole.  In deciding on whether to approve the Proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Trustees considered numerous factors, including:

  
(i)
The nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided by Parr.  In this regard, the Board reviewed the services to be provided by Parr to the Fund including, without limitation,  a review of its past investment advisory services to the Fund as its investment adviser, its coordination of services among the Fund’s service providers, its compliance procedures and practices, and its efforts to promote the Fund and assist in its distribution.  The Board noted that Parr employees currently serve as officers of the Trust for no additional consideration, and that Mr. Parr plans to remain as the portfolio manager for the Fund. The Board discussed the experience of Parr and the firm’s expertise in the markets in which Chinese companies sell securities.  The Board also considered the terms of the Proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement and the responsibilities of Parr, noting that it would continue to be responsible for day-to-day management of the investment operations and composition of the Fund’s portfolio in accordance with the Fund’s investment objective and strategies as stated in its Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information. The Board considered that Matrix 360, in its capacity as investment adviser of the Fund, would oversee the investment sub-advisory services performed by Parr, and would be ultimately responsible for providing portfolio management services to the Fund. After reviewing the foregoing information and further information provided in the Parr Memorandum (e.g., descriptions of Parr’s business and Parr’s Form ADV), the Board concluded that the quality, extent, and nature of the services to be provided by Parr as sub-advisor to the Fund are satisfactory and adequate for the Fund.

 
(ii)
The investment performance of Parr.  In this regard, the Board reviewed information about the performance of the Fund since Parr became its adviser in August 2007.  The Board compared Parr’s past performance as the Fund’s adviser to the performance of comparable funds managed by other advisers and comparable peer group indices.  The Board also considered the consistency of Parr’s past management of the Fund with the Fund’s investment objective and policies.  Following discussion of the short and long-term investment performance of the Fund, Parr’s experience in managing the Fund and separate accounts, Parr’s historical investment performance and other factors, and the applicability of the foregoing to Parr acting as sub-advisor to the Fund, the Board concluded that the investment performance of Parr as adviser to the Fund has been satisfactory.
  
 
(iii)
The costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by Parr and its affiliates from the relationship with the Fund.    In considering the costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by Parr and its affiliates from the relationship with the Fund, the Trustees considered Parr’s staffing, personnel, and methods of operating; the education and experience of Parr’s personnel; Parr’s compliance policies and procedures; the financial condition of Parr; the level of commitment to the Fund by Parr and its principals; the asset level of the Fund; and the overall expenses of the Fund, including the nature and frequency of sub-advisory fee payments.  The Trustees considered potential benefits for Parr in managing the Fund, including promotion of Parr’s name and the ability for Parr to place small advisory accounts of Parr into the Fund.  Trustees also reviewed the fees to be paid to Parr under the Proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement and noted that Matrix 360 will pay Parr, and that the Fund will have no responsibility for paying Parr as sub-advisor.

(iv)
The extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether sub-advisory fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefits of the Fund’s investors.  In considering the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether the advisory fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund’s investors, the Trustees considered the fee arrangements between Matrix 360 and Parr.  The Trustees noted that, while the investment sub-advisor fee remained the same at all asset levels, Matrix 360 is responsible for paying Parr under the Proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Fund would receive the benefits of the sub-advisory arrangement at no additional cost.  Following further discussion, the Board of Trustees determined that Matrix 360’s fee arrangements with Parr were reasonable.

Conclusion
 
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the Proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement provides for fair and equitable compensation in light of the nature and quality of the services to be provided by Parr to the Fund and its shareholders, and that approval of the Proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement was in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders.
