Dear DoubleLine Funds Shareholder:

 

The DoubleLine Funds were organized on January 12, 2010. We launched two Funds on April 6, the DoubleLine Total Return Bond Fund and the DoubleLine Emerging Markets Fixed Income Fund. On June 1, we launched our third Fund, the DoubleLine Core Fixed Income Fund. Since April 6, investors have allocated over $3 billion to the Funds through September 30, 2010. We strive to deliver superior risk-adjusted returns while working to avoid the double line of risk on the road to successful investing. This motto was inspired by Piet Mondrian (1872-1944), a leading abstract painter of the 20th century, known for his simplicity in balancing brilliant colors and bold black lines. DoubleLine Capital, advisor to the Funds, strives for similar balance by providing investment solutions that integrate risk management with the pursuit of excess returns.

 

Highlights of Financial Markets through our Semi-Annual reporting period

 

  ·  

Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBS): Agency MBS underperformed the Barclay’s Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and the Barclay’s Capital U.S. Treasury Index during the nine months ended September 30. This underperformance was due to two factors: the drop in Treasury rates and growing concern over faster prepayments for premium mortgages. Particularly in the third quarter, market chatter picked up over the possibility of a government-engineered “Great Refi”. Many technical and fundamental problems stand in the way of a Washington-orchestrated mass refinancing, although such an outcome cannot be excluded, particularly if the housing market worsens. Non-Agency MBS continued their ascent as the market grew more comfortable with its ability to price these securities, which, as of September 30, 2010 were trading at significant discounts even under severe stress-case scenarios, and the technical advantage afforded by the bid for yield and the shrinking supply of non-Agency inventory after three years of no significant new issuance.

 

  ·  

Treasuries: Rates on Treasuries declined while the yield curve flattened, an evolution begun by the flight to quality spurred by concerns over Greek, Ireland and Eurozone stability, and which persisted on economic weakness in the U.S. and growing expectation of large-scale asset purchases by the Federal Reserve. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note, which on April 5 marked 3.988% as the high for the year to date, marked a low for the nine-month period, ended September 30, 2010 of 2.467% on September 28. The 10-year to 2-year spread tightened from a reporting-period high of 291 basis points to a reporting-period low of 195 bps on August 26. After the reporting period, the 10-year yield backed up somewhat, although in contained fashion. “Quantitative easing” essentially means the central bank is increasing the money supply. Consequently, QE2 has raised inflation concerns, although expectations of high joblessness persist. Furthermore, money velocity continues to remain below 1, indicating hoarding of dollars, rather than their recirculation in the form of spending and lending activity.

 

  ·  

Corporates: Risk appetite returned to both the investment grade and the high yield corporate markets despite some hiccups courtesy of natural disasters (the Icelandic volcano) and man-made disasters (the BP oil spill). Spread-tightening took a breather in the second quarter, primarily due to concerns surrounding the sovereign risks inherent in debt issued by Greece. Nonetheless, due to the low absolute level of interest rates and a desire to invest higher on the capital structure, money continued to flow into spread products at the expense of other asset classes. The fundamental credit quality of Corporate debt continued to look good with corporate balance sheets continuing to de-lever. From a technical perspective, the strong bid suggests strongly that 2010 will prove to be a banner year for corporate debt issuance as corporate treasurers continue to take advantage of historically low borrowing rates.

  ·  

Emerging Market Debt: The sector experienced strong inflows from sovereign wealth funds, retail investors and domestic institutional investors, the lest of these having increased their allocations on the strength of the sector’s solid credit fundamentals, exhibited by a series of sovereign credit ratings upgrades. At the start of 2010, emerging markets benefited from general optimism over the prospects for global growth. In May, the sector was buffeted by contagion fears of a Greek debt default and later in the year worries of a double-dip recession in the US. However, in July, action by the European Union and International Monetary Fund and the results of European bank stress tests appeared to persuade the markets that the debt problem was contained. Fears of a resumption of recession in the US have been calmed by signals in August from Federal Reserve officials of their determination to pursue a further round of quantitative easing. These various policy moves and policy signals led to a resurgence in demand for risk assets. Furthermore, robust debt-to-GDP fundamentals played in favor of certain emerging markets issuers given the backdrop of concern over lurking credit quality issues elsewhere, notably in the peripheral European countries.

 

Performance

 

DoubleLine Total Return Bond Fund

 

Since inception on April 6, the Fund’s I shares have outperformed the Barclay’s Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index by 8.11% (14.75% versus 6.64%) as of the end of September. This outperformance was primarily driven by investment positions in two subsectors of the MBS market: (1) non-Agency residential mortgage backed securities (RMBS), which have generated higher loss-adjusted yields than other credit sectors, and (2) long-dated Agency collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), which made price gains on the May-August decline in longer-term interest rates.

DoubleLine Core Fixed Income Fund

 

Since inception on June 1st, the Fund’s I shares have outperformed the Barclay’s Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index by 3.10% (7.14% versus 4.04%). The Fund’s outperformance can be attributed substantially to our overweight in US Treasuries; our allocation to non-agency mortgages within the MBS portfolio; and our allocation to corporate credit at the end of August.

Since inception on April 6, the Fund’s I shares have underperformed the JP Morgan EMBI Global Diversified Index by 2.59% (6.75% versus 9.34%) as of the end of September. During this period, 10-year and longer-dated Treasuries rallied, while the Fund (which purchased only U.S.-dollar denominated emerging markets bonds during the period) held a more conservative, shorter-duration positioning relative to the index. This explains a significant portion of the

underperformance. Another contributor to the underperformance was the Fund’s underweight exposure to lower-rated sovereign credits, including Indonesia, the Philippines and Argentina, all of which posted sharply higher returns for the period.

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

 

Opinions expressed are subject to change at any time, are not guaranteed and should not be considered investment advice.

 

Fund holdings and sector allocations are subject to change at any time and are not recommendations to buy or sell any security. Please refer to the Schedule of Investments for a complete list of fund holdings.

Investments in debt securities typically decrease when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investments in Asset-Backed and Mortgage-Backed securities include additional risks that investor should be aware of including credit risk, prepayment risk, possible illiquidity and default, as well as increased susceptibility to adverse economic developments. Investments in lower rated and non-rated securities present a great risk of loss to principal and interest than higher rated securities.

 

The Emerging Markets Fund is non-diversified meaning it may concentrate its assets in fewer individual holdings than a diversified fund. Therefore, the Fund is more exposed to individual stock volatility than a diversified fund. The Emerging Markets and the Core Fixed Income Funds will also invest in foreign securities, which involve political, economic, and currency risks, greater volatility, and differences in accounting methods. These risks are greater for investments in emerging markets.

 

JP Morgan EMBI Global Diversified Index—This index is uniquely-weighted version of the EMBI Global. It limits the weights of those index countries with larger debt stocks by only including specified portions of these countries’ eligible current face amounts of debt outstanding. The countries covered in the EMBI Global Diversified are identical to those covered by EMBI Global.

 

Barclay’s Capital U.S. Aggregate Index—This index represents securities that are SEC-registered, taxable, and dollar denominated. The index covers the US investment grade fixed rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities, and asset-backed securities. These major sectors are subdivided into more specific indices that are calculated and reported on a regular basis.

 

Barclay’s Capital U.S. Treasury Index—This index includes public obligations of the U.S. Treasury. Treasury bills are excluded by the maturity constraint but are part of a separate Short Treasury Index. In addition, certain special issues, such as state and local government series bonds (SLGs), as well as U.S. Treasury TIPS are excluded.

 

An investment cannot be made in an index.

1.  Organization

 

DoubleLine Funds Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”), is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Trust consists of three funds, DoubleLine Total Return Bond Fund, DoubleLine Core Fixed Income Fund, and DoubleLine Emerging Markets Fixed Income Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”). Each Fund has two classes of shares, Class N shares and Class I shares. Class N shares make payments under a distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The DoubleLine Total Return Bond Fund and DoubleLine Emerging Markets Fixed Income Fund commenced operations on April 6, 2010. The DoubleLine Core Fixed Income Fund commenced operations on June 1, 2010.

 

The DoubleLine Total Return Bond Fund is a diversified fund and its investment objective is to seek to maximize total return. The DoubleLine Core Fixed Income Fund is a diversified fund and its investment objective is to seek to maximize current income and total return. The DoubleLine Emerging Markets Fixed Income Fund is a non-diversified fund and its investment objective is to seek high total return from current income and capital appreciation.

 

2.  Significant Accounting Policies

 

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Funds. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

(a) Security Valuation. Domestic and foreign fixed income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or independent pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services typically use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics.

 

Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost; however, securities with a demand feature exercisable by the seller within seven days are generally valued at par. Open-end management investment companies will be valued based upon the reported NAV.

 

Certain securities may be fair valued in accordance with the fair valuation procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. The Valuation Committee is generally responsible for overseeing the day to day valuation processes and reports periodically to the Board. The Valuation Committee is authorized to make all necessary determinations of the fair value of portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available or if it is deemed that the prices obtained are unreliable. As of September 30, 2010, the Funds did not hold securities fair valued by the Valuation Committee.

 

The Funds have adopted authoritative fair valuation accounting standards which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring fair value. These standards require additional disclosures about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value and a discussion in changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1—Unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets

 

   

Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments or inputs derived from observable market data. Directly observable inputs for the life of the financial instrument

 

   

Level 3—Unobservable inputs developed using the reporting entity’s estimates and assumptions, which reflect those that market participants would use

(b) Federal Income Taxes. Each Fund has elected to be taxed as a “regulated investment company” and intends to distribute substantially all taxable income to its shareholders and otherwise comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes has been made.

 

The Funds may be subject to a nondeductible 4% excise tax calculated as a percentage of certain undistributed amounts of net investment income and net capital gains. The Funds intend to distribute their net investment income and capital gains as necessary to avoid this excise tax.

 

The Funds have adopted financial reporting rules that require the Funds to analyze all open tax years, as defined by the applicable statute of limitations, for all major jurisdictions. Open tax years are those that are open for exam by taxing authorities. As of September 30, 2010 there are no open tax years and the Funds have no examinations in progress.

 

Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax position, and has concluded that no liability should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions expected to be taken on the tax return for the fiscal year-end March 31, 2011. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

 

(c) Security Transactions, Investment Income. Investment securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities are determined on a specific identification basis. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts/premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted/amortized over the life of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

 

(d) Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from the net investment income of each Fund will be declared and paid monthly. The Funds will distribute any net realized long or short-term capital gains at least annually. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

 

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications between paid-in capital, undistributed net investment income (loss), and/or undistributed accumulated realized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income or loss may include temporary book and tax basis differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable income or capital gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.

 

(e) Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

(f) Share Valuation. The net asset value (“NAV”) per share of closing shares of a Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash and other assets attributable to that class, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) attributable to that class by the total number of shares of that class outstanding, rounded to the nearest cent. The Fund’s shares will not be priced on the days on which the NYSE is closed for trading. The offering and redemption price for a class of shares of a Fund is equal to the net asset value of that class.

 

(g) Guarantees and Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

 

(h) Other. The Funds are charged for those expenses that are directly attributable. Expenses that are not directly attributable to a Fund are allocated among all appropriate Funds in proportion to their respective net assets or other reasonable basis. Net investment income, expenses which are not class-specific, and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated directly to each class based upon the relative net asset value of outstanding shares.

 

3.  Commitments and Other Related Party Transactions

 

DoubleLine Capital LP (the “Adviser”) provides the Funds with investment management services under an Investment Advisory and Management Agreement (the “Agreement”). Under the Agreement, the Adviser manages the investment of the assets of each Fund, places orders for the purchase and sale of its portfolio securities and is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Trust’s business affairs. As compensation for its services, the Adviser is entitled to a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.40%, 0.40% and 0.75% of the average net assets of the DoubleLine Total Return Bond Fund, DoubleLine Core Fixed Income Fund, and DoubleLine Emerging Markets Fixed Income Fund, respectively.

 

The Adviser has contractually agreed to limit the DoubleLine Total Return Bond Fund’s and the DoubleLine Core Fixed Income Fund’s expenses so that their ratio of expenses to average net assets will not exceed 0.49% for the Class I shares and 0.74% for the Class N shares. The Adviser has contractually agreed to limit the DoubleLine Emerging Markets Fixed Income Fund’s expenses so that its ratio of expenses to average net assets will not exceed 0.95% for the Class I shares and 1.20% for the Class N shares. These expense limitations may only be terminated after April 2, 2011, one year after the effective date of the registration statement.

 

The Adviser is permitted to be reimbursed for fee reductions and/or expense reimbursements it made to a Fund in the prior three fiscal years. Each Fund must pay its current ordinary operating expenses before the Adviser is entitled to any reimbursement of fees and/or expenses. Any such reimbursement

 

  Semi-Annual Report   September 30, 2010   21


Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements  (Cont.)    

 

requested by the Adviser is subject to review and approval by the Board of Trustees and will be subject to the Fund’s expense limitations in place when the expenses were waived.

 

For the period ended September 30, 2010, the Adviser contractually reimbursed certain operating expenses of the DoubleLine Total Return Bond Fund, DoubleLine Core Fixed Income Fund, and the DoubleLine Emerging Markets Fixed Income Fund in the amounts of $169,717, $89,400, and $115,753, respectively. The Adviser may recapture a portion of the above amount no later than the dates as stated below:

The Class N shares of each Fund are subject to fees imposed under a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, each Fund will compensate the Funds’ distributor or other financial intermediaries for distribution and related services at a rate equal to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of that Fund attributable to its Class N shares. The fees may be used to pay the Fund’s distributor for distribution services and sales support services provided in connection with Class N shares. The fee may also be used to pay financial intermediaries for the sales support services and related expenses and shareholder servicing fees. The shareholder servicing fees will be paid to compensate financial intermediaries for the administration and servicing of shareholder accounts and are not costs which are primarily intended to result in the sale of the Fund’s shares.

7.  Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU”). The ASU requires enhanced disclosures about a) transfers into and out of Level 1 and 2, and b) purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis relating to Level 3 measurements. The first disclosure is effective for the first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2009, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. There were no significant transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 during the current period presented. The second disclosure will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact this disclosure may have on the Funds’ financial statements.

 

8.  Legal Proceedings

 

On January 7, 2010, Trust Company of the West commenced litigation against the Adviser in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles, Central District (the “Court”), alleging unfair competition. The suit alleges that the Adviser and four employees of the Adviser who are former employees of Trust Company of the West or its affiliates, including Jeffrey Gundlach (such four employees the “Individuals”), misappropriated Trust Company of the West’s confidential and proprietary information in founding and operating the Adviser and are using such information in competing for assets under management. The lawsuit also includes claims against certain of the Individuals (including Mr. Gundlach), but not the Adviser, for breach of fiduciary duty, misappropriation of trade secrets, breach of confidence, intentional interference with contractual relations and civil conspiracy. The lawsuit seeks, among other things, damages in excess of $200 million and asks that the Court impose a constructive trust on the limited partnership interests of the Adviser in favor of Trust Company of the West.

 

On February 10, 2010, the Adviser and the Individuals filed with the Court an answer denying all of Trust Company of the West’s claims, and the Individuals (but not the Adviser) filed with the Court a cross-complaint against Trust Company of the West for, among other things, breach of contract in connection with Trust Company of the West’s termination of Mr. Gundlach’s employment and failure to pay amounts due thereunder.

 

The Adviser has informed the Trust that it believes that it and the Individuals have meritorious defenses to the allegations contained in Trust Company of the West’s lawsuit.

 

On November 30, 2010, Trust Company of the West argued before the Court a motion to amend the complaint to add the Trust and certain of the Trustees as parties to the litigation. Trust Company of the West advanced a number of theories for liability on the part of the Trust, including that the Trust is an instrumentality of the Adviser and that the Trust and certain of the Trustees are liable for the actions of the Adviser. In the amended complaint, Trust Company of the West sought a variety of remedies, including a constructive trust as to the Trust’s profits and a temporary injunction against the Trust’s continued operations, and other simple and punitive damages. The Court indicated, in a tentative ruling, its intent to deny the motion to add the Trust and the Trustees. After a hearing on the motion, but before the Court could rule, Trust Company of the West requested a withdrawal of the motion.

Notes to Financial Statements  (Cont.)    

 

 

 

Notwithstanding the Court’s tentative determination on the motion to amend, on December 1, 2010, Trust Company of the West filed a separate complaint against the Trust and certain of the Trustees directly asserting nearly identical claims as those presented in the proposed amended complaint and seeking similar remedies. The new complaint was filed in Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles, Central District and is expected to be consolidated with the current litigation before the same Court. The litigation should not impact the expenses of the Funds, as the Adviser has agreed to bear all legal fees and other related expenses of the Trust and the Trustees in connection with defending against the claim.

 

Neither the Trust nor the Trustees have initiated or participated in any improper harm to Trust Company of the West, and the Trust, in consultation with counsel, believes that the extraordinary remedies sought against it are unlikely to be granted. However, there can be no assurance as to the outcome of any litigation. The remedies sought against the Trust, if granted, could have a material adverse effect on shareholder returns for the Funds.

 

Trust Company of the West raised a fund under the U.S. Treasury’s Legacy Securities Public Private Investment Program (the “PPIP”) in the fall of 2009 to be managed by Mr. Gundlach, as key person, and announced in January 2010, subsequent to the termination of Mr. Gundlach, that it had voluntarily withdrawn the fund from the PPIP and would conduct an orderly liquidation of the fund. The Adviser has advised the Trust that employees and former employees of the Adviser have been interviewed by representatives of the Special Inspector General of the Troubled Asset Relief Program, and by the office of the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, in connection with the PPIP and in connection with the same allegations of misappropriation of proprietary information made by Trust Company of the West in its litigation against the Adviser. The Adviser understands that the inquiry stems at least in part from a federal grand jury inquiry. The Adviser has informed the Trust that it has cooperated with the inquiry and has voluntarily produced documents. The Trust and the Funds are not involved in any of these inquiries.

 

Litigation and investigation and defense of any governmental inquiry or investigation can be expensive and time consuming, and their results can be unpredictable. There can be no assurances as to the outcome of these matters. The litigation and any governmental inquiry or investigation could consume a material amount of the Adviser’s resources thereby potentially impairing the Adviser’s ability to attract or retain talented personnel or otherwise effectively manage the Funds. In the event of an adverse outcome or if expenses of the litigation and related matters are greater than anticipated, the Adviser’s ability to manage the Funds may be materially impaired, and shareholders, or the viability of the Funds, could be adversely affected.

 

9.  Subsequent Events

 

In preparing these financial statements, the Funds have evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued. Other than the legal proceedings described in Note 8, the Funds have determined there are no subsequent events that would need to be disclosed in the Funds’ financial statements.

Shareholder Expenses   (Unaudited)

 

 

Example

As a shareholder of DoubleLine Total Return Bond Fund, DoubleLine Core Fixed Income Fund, and DoubleLine Emerging Markets Fixed Income Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”), you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses.

 

This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in each Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period covered by this report.

 

Actual Expenses

The actual return columns in the following table provide information about account values based on actual returns and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, 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 entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The only transaction fees you may be required to pay are 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. These fees are assessed on all accounts, as applicable. If you request that a redemption be made by wire transfer, currently the Funds’ transfer agent charges a $15.00 fee. The transfer agent charges a transaction fee of $25.00 on returned checks and stop payment orders. If you paid a transaction fee, you would add the fee amount to the expenses paid on your account this period to obtain your total expenses paid.

 

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The hypothetical return columns in the following table provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not a 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 the transaction fees discussed above. The DoubleLine Funds do not charge any sales loads or exchange fees, but these may be present in other funds to which you compare this data. Therefore, those columns are 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.

Evaluation of Advisory Agreement by the Board of Trustees   (Unaudited)

 

 

The Trust and DoubleLine Capital LP (the “Adviser”) are parties to an Investment Advisory Agreement dated March 25, 2010 (the “Advisory Agreement”) with respect to each of the Funds of the Trust. At its meeting on March 25, 2010, the Board of Trustees, including the Independent Trustees voting separately, approved the Advisory Agreement for the first time. This section describes the evaluation by the Board of Trustees of the Advisory Agreement.

 

The Board reviewed a wide range of materials at the meeting, including information previously requested by counsel to the Funds on behalf of the Board. This summary describes a number of the most important, but not necessarily all, of the factors considered by the Board and the Independent Trustees.

 

In considering the Advisory Agreement, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or consideration that was all-important or controlling, and each Trustee attributed different weights to various factors. The Trustees evaluated information provided to them both in terms of the Funds generally and with respect to each Fund as they considered appropriate. The Trustees made the determination to approve the Advisory Agreement on a Fund-by-Fund basis. In all of its deliberations, the Board of Trustees and the Independent Trustees were advised by counsel to the Funds and by independent counsel to the Independent Trustees.

 

Factors considered by the Trustees included, among others:

 

   

the nature, extent, and quality of the services expected to be provided by the Adviser;

 

   

information regarding the expertise of the Adviser’s personnel;

 

   

the costs of the services to be provided and anticipated profits to be realized by the Adviser;

 

   

information regarding fees charged by other advisers for comparable services;

 

   

fees charged by the Adviser for comparable services to other clients, if any; and

 

   

any effect anticipated economies of scale that may be realized as the Funds grow should have on the proposed advisory fees.

 

The Trustees considered the high value to the Trust of its new relationship with the Adviser. The Trustees considered the Adviser’s apparent success in attracting competent employees to date and the Adviser’s likely ability to continue to attract and retain key employees. The Trustees considered the detailed compliance policies and procedures developed by the Adviser and the Adviser’s apparent commitment to the compliance process. The Trustees also considered the Adviser’s administrative capabilities, including its ability to supervise the other service providers to the Trust. The Trustees recognized the considerable efforts of the Adviser in assembling the Trust’s service providers, including the administrative, distribution, operational, compliance, trading, and portfolio management teams required to manage investment companies such as the Funds.

 

The Trustees noted that the Trust had not commenced operations at the time of the Board meeting and had no historical investment performance. However, the Trustees considered the expertise of the Funds’ proposed portfolio management teams generally and the performance of funds managed by the Adviser’s principal employees while employed by their previous employer. The Trustees concluded, on the basis of the foregoing considerations, that the Adviser appeared to have the personnel and capabilities necessary to provide the services contemplated by the Advisory Agreement.

 

The Trustees reviewed the Funds’ advisory fee structures. The Trustees considered comparative information with respect to the advisory fee rates for similar funds managed by third parties and concluded that the Trust’s advisory fees are generally within a competitive range of those incurred by other comparable funds. The Trustees also considered the Adviser’s estimated net profit margin attributable to its management of each Fund of the Trust, and determined that it did not appear unreasonable. The Trustees noted that, although there were no breakpoints in the advisory fee structures, each Fund was subject to an expense cap that would have the effect of limiting each Fund’s ordinary operating expenses (ordinary operating expenses exclude taxes, commissions, mark-ups, litigation expenses, indemnification expenses, interest expenses, and any other extraordinary expense) for a period of time. They also noted that, since each of the Funds would be in its initial start-up phase, it was unlikely that significant economies of scale would be achieved in the foreseeable future or that the Adviser was likely to receive levels of compensation from the Funds warranting the Trustees’ consideration of breakpoints or other modifications to the Funds’ advisory fees during the Advisory Agreement’s initial term. The Trustees noted that, because the Adviser is newly organized, it had no other comparable investment advisory clients.

 

The Trustees considered that the Funds were in their start-up phase, and that the Adviser was not expected to utilize soft dollar credits to purchase brokerage or research. The Trustees concluded that any fall-out benefits the Adviser would enjoy as a result of its relationship with the Funds, at least in the initial start-up phase, would likely be limited.

 

On the basis of these considerations, the Trustees determined to approve the Advisory Agreement for each Fund for the proposed initial term.
