SHAREHOLDER LETTER
OCTOBER 31, 2015 (UNAUDITED)
Dear Shareholder:
It gives me great pleasure to write my first shareholder letter as president of the Avondale Core Investment Fund. If all goes well, this should serve as the first of many shareholder letters that I expect to write over the remainder of my career.
I started Avondale Asset Management in 2011 in order to create a home for people who shared our values: integrity, humility and curiosity, and we sponsored the formation of the Avondale Core Investment Fund in 2014 in order to extend participation in that vision to a greater number of potential investors. Its our intention that this fund will be our flagship vehicle to pursue the highest possible investment returns for decades to come. As the Funds largest shareholder, my money is right alongside yours. My personal savings will increase only to the extent that this capital grows as well.
Because of that, you will notice that we measure success in very different terms than most of our colleagues in the investment industry. Our goal is to grow the intrinsic per share value of this company over the long term, just as any other prudent management team would be tasked with doing. In order to accomplish this, its our duty to grow the realized and potential earnings power of the company by investing in projects that we judge to be efficient uses of capital. The way that we accomplish that is to build real, enduring investment machinery that can repeatedly source high quality opportunities to invest our capital.
The first step towards building that machinery is to recognize that this vehicle is an investment company, not just a fund. The big difference is that a company takes an active role in creating its own destiny by assembling great teams and motivating them to work together towards a common goal. In contrast, funds generally act passively, focusing on markets rather than people. Most investment managers look at markets like casino games and rely heavily on statistics and outside analyst opinions to trade paper certificates that have little intrinsic meaning to the manager.
We view investing as a fundamentally human pursuit. At the heart of our philosophy is the idea that your investments represent ownership of real businesses run by real people. Were not about algorithms, derivatives or Sharpe ratios. We embrace the fact that investing the right way takes hard work. It takes developing a truly unique supply chain of opportunities, interviewing management teams and learning about how they run their companies. It takes building processes and relationships that are completely off the beaten path. It takes being open minded about new methods and embracing old ones. Above all, it takes a relentless commitment to continuous improvement.
Our first year in operation was filled with some modest success as well as some significant challenges & barriers. Since our company is just one year old we are still in a phase of building our investment machinery. In the near term, one of the most important things that we need to do in order to build that machinery is to increase the size of our shareholder base and attract new capital to our company.
AVONDALE CORE INVESTMENT FUND
SHAREHOLDER LETTER (CONTINUED)
OCTOBER 31, 2015 (UNAUDITED)
This year we learned that there are substantial barriers to entry in the mutual fund industry. Although we believe that we had substantial demand from potential shareholders to invest in our company, we were surprised by the difficulty to get on to platforms to receive that demand. (Think of it in terms of this analogy: we produce cereal boxes and are trying to get shelf space at supermarkets. Those supermarkets are currently testing our product.) We have been working for the majority of this year to climb these barriers, and at year-end we believe that we will be on the shelves of at least one large financial supermarket next year. This will hopefully allow us to sell greater quantities of our cereal.
The one good thing about the amount of time that it has taken to climb these hurdles is that even if we had a substantial amount of new capital to invest, there currently arent many great opportunities to invest it. You may notice that our company currently holds the majority of our assets as cash equivalents. The reason that we are holding onto this cash is that we attempt to only invest when exceptional opportunities come along. Since our company was founded in 2014 there havent been many exceptional opportunities.
Thats not a problem to us though. We think in terms of years and decades rather than days and weeks. Its not at all unusual for years to go by without an exceptional opportunity to make a new investment. That doesnt mean we are resting though. While we wait for exceptional opportunities to arise, in the meantime we never stop learning so that when those opportunities come along, we have the ability and knowledge to act decisively.
In closing, whenever I meet with the CEOs of potential investments, I always ask the question: if I see you one year from now what should I ask you if you have accomplished. In 2016 our goal is to raise more capital for the fund--at least $5 million. Our second goal is to continue to build our investment machinery. Specifically we will focus on how to create our own investment opportunities so that we dont have to wait for opportunities to come to us. We are looking forward to an exciting and productive 2016.
Sincerely,
Scott Krisiloff

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2015
Note 1. Organization
The Avondale Funds (the Trust), an Ohio business trust, is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was formed by an Agreement and Declaration of Trust on July 10, 2014. The Trust Agreement permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest of separate series without par value. The Trust currently consists of the Avondale Core Investment Fund (the "Fund"), a non-diversified fund whose investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation while utilizing asset allocation techniques to help preserve principal value. The Fund commenced operations on November 10, 2014. There are currently no other series in the Trust. The Adviser of the Fund is the Avondale Investment Company, LLC (Adviser).
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The Fund is an investment company that follows the accounting and reporting guidance of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 applicable to investment companies.
Security Valuation: All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value according to the procedures described in Note 3.
Foreign currency: Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
AVONDALE CORE INVESTMENT FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
OCTOBER 31, 2015
Federal Income Taxes: The Funds policy is to continue 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. The Company also intends to distribute sufficient net investment income and net capital gains, if any, so that it will not be subject to excise tax on undistributed income and capital gains. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
In addition, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires management of the Fund to analyze all open tax years, fiscal years, as defined by IRS statute of limitations for all major industries, including federal tax authorities and certain state tax authorities. As of and during the period November 10, 2014 (commencement of investment operations) through October 31, 2015, the Fund did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Fund has no examination in progress and is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total tax amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
Distributions to Shareholders: The Fund intends to distribute to its shareholders substantially all of its net realized capital gains and net investment income, if any, at year-end. Distributions will be recorded on ex-dividend date.
Other: The Fund follows industry practice and records security transactions on the trade date. The specific identification method is used for determining gains or losses for financial statements and income tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds understanding of the applicable countrys tax rules and rates.
Redemption Fees: The Board of Trustees has adopted a redemption policy to discourage short term traders and/or market timers from investing in the Fund. A 1.00% short-term redemption fee will be assessed by the Fund against investment proceeds withdrawn within 90 calendar days of investment. Fund shares received from reinvested distributions or capital gains are not subject to the redemption fee. After excluding any shares that are associated with reinvested distributions from the redemption fee calculation, the Fund uses a first-in, first-out method to determine the 30-day holding period. During the period November 10, 2014 (commencement of investment operations) through October 31, 2015 the Fund did not collect any redemption fees.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
AVONDALE CORE INVESTMENT FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
OCTOBER 31, 2015
Reclassifications: In accordance with GAAP, the Fund recorded a permanent book/tax difference of $175 from net investment loss to paid-in capital. This reclassification has no impact on the net asset value of the Fund and is designed generally to present undistributed income and paid-in capital on a tax basis, which is considered to be more informative to shareholders.
Organizational and Offering Costs: The Advisor has agreed to pay the organizational and initial offering costs of the Fund. The organizational and initial offering costs include preparation and filing incorporation documents, bylaws, declarations of trust, registration statements, board materials, state and federal registration of shares and audit fees. As a result, the Funds financials statements will not reflect these organizational and offering costs. Total organizational and offering costs incurred through October 27, 2014 were $20,000.
Note 3. Security Valuations
Processes and Structure
The Funds Board of Trustees has adopted guidelines for valuing securities including in circumstances in which market quotes are not readily available and has delegated to the Adviser the responsibility for determining fair value prices, subject to review by the Board of Trustees.
Hierarchy of Fair Value Inputs
The Fund utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of most of their investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs are as follows:
·
Level 1. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.
·
Level 2. Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data.
·
Level 3. Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund's own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that would be based on the best information available.
AVONDALE CORE INVESTMENT FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
OCTOBER 31, 2015
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
Fair Value Measurements
A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis follows.
Equity securities (common stocks). Securities traded on a national securities exchange (or reported on the NASDAQ national market) are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation. 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. Certain foreign securities may be fair valued using a pricing service that considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the foreign security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as American Depositary Receipts (ADR), financial futures, Exchange Traded Funds, and the movement of the certain indexes of securities based on a statistical analysis of the historical relationship and that are categorized in level 2. Preferred stock and other equities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are also categorized in level 2.
Short term investments. Short term investments are valued using amortized cost, which approximates fair value. These securities will be categorized in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
The following table summarizes the inputs used to value each Funds assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of October 31, 2015:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
OCTOBER 31, 2015
The Fund did not hold any Level 3 assets during the period November 10, 2014 (commencement of investment operations) through October 31, 2015. The Fund did not hold any derivative instruments at any time during the period November 10, 2014 (commencement of investment operations) through October 31, 2015. There were no significant transfers into or out of Level 1 or Level 2 during the period November 10, 2014 (commencement of investment operations) through October 31, 2015. It is the Fund's policy to recognize transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 at the end of the reporting period.
Note 4. Investment Management Agreement
Under the terms of the management agreement (the Agreement), the Adviser manages the Funds investments subject to approval of the Board of Trustees. As compensation for its management services, the Fund is obligated to pay the Adviser a fee computed and accrued daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 1.50% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. The Adviser contractually has agreed to waive its fee and/or reimburse certain Fund operating expenses, but only to the extent necessary so that the Funds total operating expenses, excluding brokerage fees and commissions, any 12b-1 fees, borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expenses on securities sold short), taxes, extraordinary expenses and any indirect expenses (such as fees and expenses of acquired funds), do not exceed, 1.15% of its average daily net assets as to the Fund. The contractual agreement is in effect through December 31, 2015. The waiver or reimbursement by the Adviser is subject to repayment by the Fund within the three fiscal years following the fiscal year in which the particular waiver or expense was incurred; provided that the Fund is able to make the repayment without exceeding the 1.15% as to the Funds expense limitation. For the period November 10, 2014 (commencement of investment operations) through October 31, 2015, the Adviser earned advisory fees of $2,769. For the period November 10, 2014 (commencement of investment operations) through October 31, 2015, the Adviser waived $646 in fees pursuant to the expense limitation agreement. These waived expenses may be recovered no later than October 31, 2018. As of October 31, 2015, the Fund owed the Advisor $97.
Note 5. Distribution (12b-1) Agreement
The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan (the Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Plan provides that the Fund will pay the Adviser and/or any registered securities dealer, financial institution or any other person (the Recipient) a shareholder servicing fee of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund in connection with the promotion and distribution of Fund shares or the provision of personal services to shareholders, including, but not necessarily limited to, advertising, compensation to underwriters, dealers and selling personnel, the printing and mailing of prospectuses to other than current Fund shareholders, the printing and mailing of sales literature and servicing shareholder accounts (12b-1 Expenses). The Fund or Adviser may pay all or a portion of these fees to any Recipient who renders assistance in distributing or promoting the sale of shares, or who provides certain shareholder services, pursuant to a
AVONDALE CORE INVESTMENT FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
OCTOBER 31, 2015
written agreement. The Plan is a compensation plan, which means that compensation is provided regardless of 12b-1 expenses actually incurred. It is anticipated that the Plan will benefit shareholders because an effective sales program typically is necessary in order for the Fund to reach and maintain a sufficient size to achieve efficiently its investment objectives and to realize economies of scale. The Plan is not currently activated and the plan will not be activated through December 31, 2015.
Note 6. Capital Share Transactions
The Fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of separate series with no par value. The total paid-in capital was $244,104 as of October 31, 2015. Transactions in capital for the period November 10, 2014 (commencement of investment operations) through October 31, 2015 were as follows:
| Shares | Amount |
Shares sold | 15,454 | $ 155,000 |
Shares reinvested | - | - |
Shares redeemed | (1,990) | (19,721) |
Net increase (decrease) | 13,464 | $ 135,279 |
On November 12, 2014, 10,900 shares for $109,000 were issued as seed capital and reported in the Funds Form 497 filing filed on November 13, 2014.
Note 7. Investment Transactions

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED
PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and
Board of Trustees of
Avondale Core Investment Fund
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Avondale Core Investment Fund (the Fund) a series of Avondale Funds, including the schedule of investments in securities, as of October 31, 2015, and the related statements of operations, changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the period from November 10, 2014 (commencement of operations) through October 31, 2015. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audit.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2015, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Avondale Core Investment Fund as of October 31, 2015, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the period from November 10, 2014 (commencement of operations) through October 31, 2015, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

EXPENSE ILLUSTRATION
OCTOBER 31, 2015 (UNAUDITED)
Expense Example
As a shareholder of Avondale Core Investment Fund, you incur ongoing costs which typically consist of management fees. 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.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period, May 1, 2015 through October 31, 2015.
Actual Expenses
The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds actual expense ratio 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 this 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. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing your ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If transactional costs were included where applicable, your costs may be higher.
| Beginning Account Value | Ending Account Value | Expenses Paid During the Period * |
| May 1, 2015 | October 31, 2015 | May 1, 2015 to October 31, 2015 |
|
|
|
|
Actual | $1,000.00 | $996.98 | $5.79 |
Hypothetical (5% Annual |
|

|
Return before expenses) | $1,000.00 | $1,019.41 | $5.85 |
|
|
|
|
* Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio of 1.15%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). |

AVONDALE CORE INVESTMENT FUND
CODE OF ETHICS
(Adopted: September 16, 2014)
STATEMENT OF PRINCIPLES
Avondale Core Investment Fund (the "Trust") has adopted this Code of Ethics to govern personal securities investment activities of the officers and trustees of the Trust (collectively, "Trust Personnel"), persons affiliated with the investment advisers to each series of the Trust listed on Schedule A of this Code (each, an "Adviser" and collectively, the "Advisers"). This Code shall also serve as the Code of Ethics for each Adviser and the Underwriter for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Although this Code contains a number of specific standards and policies, there are three key principles embodied throughout the Code.
The Interests of Trust Shareholders Must Always Be Paramount
Trust Personnel have a legal and fiduciary duty to place the interests of clients first. In any decision relating to their personal investments, Trust Personnel must scrupulously avoid serving their own interests ahead of those of any client.
Trust Personnel May Not Take Inappropriate Advantage Of Their Relationship To Our Shareholders
Trust Personnel should avoid any situation (including unusual investment opportunities, perquisites, accepting gifts of more than token value from persons seeking to do business with the Advisers or the Trust) that might compromise, or call into question, the exercise of their fully independent judgment in the interests of trust shareholders.
All Personal Securities Transactions Should Avoid Any Actual, Potential or Apparent Conflicts Of Interest
Although all personal securities transactions by Trust Personnel must be conducted in a manner consistent with this Code, the Code itself is based upon the premise that Trust Personnel owe a fiduciary duty to clients, and should therefore avoid any activity that creates an actual, potential or apparent conflict of interest. This includes executing transactions through or for the benefit of a third party when the transaction is not in keeping with the general principles of this Code.
Trust Personnel must adhere to these general principles as well as comply with the specific provisions of this Code. Technical compliance with the Code and its procedures will not automatically prevent scrutiny of trades that show a pattern of abuse or violation of an individual's fiduciary duties to clients.
DEFINITIONS
"Act" means the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
"Advisers" means the Advisers listed on Schedule A to this Code, as such schedule may be amended from time to time.
"Affiliated Funds" means: (1) for Adviser Personnel who are affiliated with an Adviser, the Fund(s) for which such Adviser serves as investment adviser; (2) for Adviser Personnel who are in a control relationship with any Fund, that Fund; and (3) for Adviser Personnel who are employees of the Trust, all Funds.
"Adviser Personnel" means: (1) any employee of the Trust or an Adviser who, in connection with his or her regular functions or duties, makes, participates in or obtains information regarding the purchase or sale of Securities by any Fund, or whose functions relate to the making of any recommendations with respect to the purchase or sale of Securities by any Fund; (2) any officer, general partner or director of an Adviser; and (3) any natural person in a control relationship to any Fund or any Adviser who obtains information concerning recommendations made to a Fund with regard to the purchase or sale of a Security by a Fund. Any provisions of this Code that apply directly to Adviser Personnel equally apply to accounts in the names of other persons in which Adviser Personnel have Beneficial Ownership.
"Beneficial Ownership" means the opportunity, directly or indirectly, to profit or share in any profit derived from the purchase or sale of the subject Securities. Beneficial Ownership includes, but is not limited to, ownership of Securities held by members of the family. For these purposes, a person's family includes the spouse, minor children, any person living in the home and any relative to whose support the person directly or indirectly contributes.
"Control" means the power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of the Trust, unless such power is solely the result of an official position with the Trust. Any person who beneficially owns, either directly or through one or more controlled companies, more than 25 percent of the voting securities of any present Fund of a Trust shall be presumed to control such Fund. Any such presumption may be rebutted by evidence, in accordance with Section 2(a)(9) of the Act.
"Compliance Officer" means, for Adviser Personnel, the person designated as the Compliance Officer by such Adviser; and for Adviser Personnel who are not affiliated with an Adviser and for Trust Personnel, the person or persons designated by the President of the Trust.
"Fund" means each series of the Trust.
"Portfolio Managers" means those Adviser Personnel entrusted with the direct responsibility and authority to make investment decisions affecting any Fund. Any provisions of this Code that apply directly to Personal Securities Transactions by a Fund Portfolio Manager equally apply to transactions in accounts in the names of other persons in which the Fund Portfolio Manager has Beneficial Ownership.
"Personal Securities Transaction(s)" means transactions in Securities for the account(s) in the names of Trust Personnel, or for accounts in which Trust Personnel have Beneficial Ownership.
"Trust" means Avondale Core Investment Fund.
"Trust Personnel" means: (1) any officer or director of the Underwriter who, in the ordinary course of business, makes, participates in or obtains information regarding, the purchase or sale of securities by any Fund, or whose functions or duties in the ordinary course of business relate to the making of any recommendation to any Fund regarding the purchase or sale of securities; or (2) any officer or Trustee of the Trust. Any provisions of this Code that apply directly to Trust Personnel equally apply to accounts in the names of other persons in which Trust Personnel have Beneficial Ownership.
"Security" means any note, stock, treasury stock, bond, debenture, evidence of indebtedness, certificate of interest or participation in any profit-sharing agreement, collateral-trust certificate, pre-organization certificate or subscription, transferable share, investment contract, voting-trust certificate, certificate of deposit for a security, fractional undivided interest in oil, gas or other mineral rights, or, in general, any interest or instrument commonly known as "security," or any certificate or interest or participation in temporary or interim certificate for, receipt for, guarantee of, or warrant or right to subscribe to or purchase (including options) any of the foregoing.
The term "Security" shall not include the following securities: (i) shares of registered open-end investment companies; (ii) securities issued by the United States government; (iii) short term debt securities which are government securities within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Act; (iv) bankers' acceptances; (v) bank certificates of deposit; (vi) commercial paper and (vii) such other money market instruments as may be designated by the Trust's Board of Trustees (collectively, the "Excluded Securities").
"Purchase or Sale of a Security" includes the writing of an option to purchase or sell a Security. A Security shall be deemed "being considered for Purchase or Sale" by a Fund when a recommendation to purchase or sell has been made and communicated and, with respect to the person making the recommendation, when such person seriously considers making such a recommendation. A Security shall not be deemed to be one which is "being considered for Purchase or Sale" by a Fund if such Security is reviewed as part of a general industrial survey or other broad monitoring of the securities market.
PROHIBITED PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
In a Personal Securities Transaction, Portfolio Managers may not:
o
Purchase or Sell a Security within three calendar days before, or on the same day as, the execution of a trade in the same Security or an equivalent Security by the Affiliated Fund (unless the Personal Securities Transaction is combined ("blocked") with the Affiliated Funds transaction).
Adviser Personnel may not:
o
In any calendar year, receive a gift or anything else (for example, air fare, hotel accommodations, etc.) with a value of more than $100 from any single person or entity that does business with or on behalf of an Affiliated Fund;
o
Serve on the board of directors of a publicly traded company without prior authorization from the Board of Trustees of the Trust based upon a determination that such service would be consistent with the interests of the Trust and its shareholders. Adviser Personnel that serve on such boards of directors are not permitted to participate in any investment decisions made by the Trust involving Securities of a company on whose board they serve;
o
Execute a Personal Securities Transaction without the prior written authorization of the Compliance Officer;
o
Execute a Personal Securities Transaction on a day during which an Affiliated Fund has a pending "buy" or "sell" order in that Security or an equivalent Security, until the Affiliated Fund's order is executed or withdrawn (unless the Personal Securities Transaction is combined ("blocked") with the Affiliated Fund's transaction). In the case of "good until canceled" orders placed by a Fund, this provision applies only if the market price is within 2 points or 10% of the "good until canceled" price; or
o
Execute a Personal Securities Transaction in a Security or an equivalent Security that is being considered for Purchase or Sale by an Affiliated Fund (unless the Personal Securities Transaction is combined ("blocked") with the Affiliated Fund's transaction).
In a Personal Securities Transaction, Adviser Personnel may not:
o
Acquire any Security in an initial public offering or in a private placement without prior written authorization of the acquisition by the Compliance Officer. Any decision by a Fund to invest in or sell such Securities must be approved solely by Adviser Personnel with no investment in the issuer.
EXEMPTED TRANSACTIONS
The provisions described above under the heading Prohibited Purchases and Sales of Securities and the Pre-clearance procedures under the heading Pre-clearance of Personal Securities Transactions do not apply to:
o
Purchases or Sales of Excluded Securities;
o
Purchases or Sales of Securities involving less than 2,000 shares of any Security included in the Standard & Poor's 500 Index;
o
Purchases or Sales of Securities involving less than 2,000 shares of a Security of a company with a market capitalization in excess of $200 million and average daily trading volume in excess of 50,000 shares for the past ten trading days;
o
Purchases or Sales of options contracts on a broad-based market index;
o
Purchases or Sales of Securities effected in any account in which the applicable Adviser Personnel has no Beneficial Ownership;
o
Purchases or Sales of Securities which are non-volitional on the part of either Adviser Personnel or a Fund (for example, the receipt of stock dividends);
o
Purchases of Securities made as part of automatic dividend reinvestment plans;
o
Purchases of Securities made as part of an employee benefit plan involving the periodic purchase of company stock or mutual funds; and
o
Purchases of Securities effected upon the exercise of rights issued by an issuer pro rata to all holders of a class of its securities, to the extent such rights were acquired from such issuer, and sale of such rights so acquired; provided, however, that this section shall not exempt acquisitions of any Security in an initial public offering or in a private placement from the requirement that prior written authorization be obtained from the Compliance Officer.
PRECLEARANCE OF PERSONAL SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS.
All Adviser Personnel wishing to engage in a Personal Securities Transaction must obtain prior written authorization of any such Personal Securities Transaction from the Compliance Officer or such person or persons that such Compliance Officer may from time to time designate to make such written authorizations. Personal Securities Transactions by a Compliance Officer (for Adviser Personnel) shall require prior written authorization of the President of the Adviser with whom the Compliance Officer is affiliated, or his designate, who shall perform the review and approval functions relating to reports and trading by the Compliance Officer. The Adviser shall adopt the appropriate forms and procedures for implementing this Code of Ethics.
Any authorization so provided is effective until the close of business on the fifth trading day after the authorization is granted. In the event that an order for the Personal Securities Transaction is not placed within that time period, a new authorization must be obtained. If the order for the transaction is placed but not executed within that time period, no new authorization is required unless the person placing the original order amends the order in any manner. Authorization for "good until canceled" orders are effective until the order conflicts with a Fund order. If a person is authorized to acquire a security in a private placement or initial public offering, the Compliance Officer must maintain a record of the decision and the reasons supporting the decision.
If a person wishing to effect a Personal Securities Transaction learns, while the order is pending that the same Security is being considered for purchase or Sale by the Fund, such person shall cancel the trade.
Notification of Fund Trading Activity
In addition to placing Purchase or Sale Orders for the Funds, the Portfolio Managers, or their designates, shall notify their respective Compliance Officers of daily purchases and sales and of Securities being considered for Purchase or Sale by the Affiliated Fund (other than anticipated transactions in Excluded Securities). In the alternative, a Compliance Officer must consult with the respective Portfolio Manager prior to authorizing a Personal Securities Transaction.
TRANSACTION AND ACCOUNT POSITION REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
The following reporting requirements do not apply to any Trustee of the Trust who is not an "interested person" of the Trust within the meaning of section 2(a)(19) of the Act, and who would be required to make a report solely by reason of being a Trustee ("Disinterested Trustee"). If, however, a Disinterested Trustee knew or, in the ordinary course of fulfilling his or her duties as a Trustee of the Trust, should have known, that during the fifteen day period immediately preceding or after the date of a Personal Security Transaction in a Security by the Trustee such Security is or was purchased or sold by a Fund or such purchase or sale by a Fund is or was considered by a Fund or the Adviser, the Disinterested Trustee shall make the quarterly disclosures described below to the Board of Trustees, but only with respect to the applicable Personal Security Transactions.
A. Disclosure Of Personal Brokerage Accounts and Securities Holdings
Within ten (10) days of the commencement of employment with an Adviser, the Underwriter or the Trust, all Adviser Personnel and Trust Personnel shall submit to the Compliance Officer: a) the names and account numbers of all of their personal brokerage accounts, brokerage accounts of members of their immediate families, and any brokerage accounts which they control or in which they or an immediate family member has Beneficial Ownership when the person became an employee; b) a list of all personal Securities holdings when the person became an employee; c) certification that they have read and understand this Code; and d) the date the report was submitted.
Each of these brokerage accounts shall furnish duplicate confirmations and statements to the Adviser with whom the person is affiliated or the Trust.
B. Annual Reporting Requirements
At the beginning of the first quarter of each fiscal year, all Adviser Personnel and Trust Personnel shall submit to the Compliance Officer: a) the names and account numbers of all of their personal brokerage accounts, brokerage accounts of members of their immediate families, and any brokerage accounts which they control or in which they or an immediate family member has Beneficial Ownership as of a date no more than 30 days before the report was submitted; b) a list of all personal Securities holdings as of a date no more than 30 days before the report was submitted; c) certification that they have read and understand this Code and whether they have complied with its requirements throughout the prior fiscal year; and d) the date the report was submitted.
C. Quarterly Reporting Requirements
All Adviser Personnel and Trust Personnel shall report to the Compliance Officer the following information with respect to transactions in any Security in which such person has, or by reason of such transaction acquires, any direct or indirect Beneficial Ownership in the Security:
o
The date of the transaction, the title and the number of shares, and the principal amount of each Security involved;
o
The nature of the transaction (i.e., purchase, sale or any other type of acquisition or disposition);
o
The price at which the transaction was effected; and
o
The name of the broker, dealer or bank with or through whom the transaction was effected.
Trust Personnel and Adviser Personnel shall also identify any trading account established by the person during the previous quarter with a broker, dealer or bank.
Reports pursuant to this section of this Code shall be made no later than 10 days after the end of the calendar quarter in which the transaction to which the report relates was effected, and shall include a certification that the reporting person has reported all Personal Securities Transactions required to be disclosed or reported pursuant to the requirements of this Code. Any such report may contain a statement that the report shall not be construed as an admission by the person making such report that he or she has any direct or indirect Beneficial Ownership in the Security to which the report relates. Adviser Personnel and Trust Personnel need not make such a report with respect to transactions effected for any account in which they may have Beneficial Ownership, but over which they do not have any direct or indirect influence or control (for example, a blind trust).
ENFORCEMENT AND PENALTIES
With respect to Adviser Personnel affiliated with an Adviser, each Compliance Officer shall identify all Adviser Personnel, inform those persons of their reporting obligations, and maintain a record of all current and former Adviser Personnel. With respect to Trust Personnel and Adviser Personnel who are not affiliated with an Adviser, the Compliance Officer shall identify all such persons, inform those persons of their reporting obligations, and maintain a record of all current and former such persons. The Compliance Officer shall review the transaction information supplied by Adviser Personnel who are not affiliated with an Adviser, by Trust Personnel and by their affiliates. If a transaction appears to be in violation of this Code of Ethics, the transaction will be reported to the Adviser with whom the person is affiliated (if any) as well as the Board of Trustees of the Trust.
Upon being informed of a violation of this Code of Ethics, an Adviser may impose such sanctions as it deems appropriate, including but not limited to, a letter of censure or suspension, termination of the employment of the violator or a request for disgorgement of any profits received from a securities transaction effected in violation of this Code of Ethics. The Adviser shall impose sanctions in accordance with the principle that no Trust Personnel may profit at the expense of the shareholders of the Trust. Any sanctions imposed with respect thereto shall be reported periodically to the Board of Trustees of the Trust.
DUTIES AND POWERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
Each of the Underwriter, Advisers and an officer of the Trust shall submit to the Board of Trustees at each regular meeting of the Board, a report of Personal Securities Transactions by Trust Personnel. Such reports shall be reviewed by the Board of Trustees in order to determine whether any violation of this Code or any section of the Act or the regulations promulgated there under has occurred.
Annually, each of the Underwriter, Advisers and an officer of the Trust shall submit to the Board of Trustees a report that:
o
Summarizes existing procedures concerning Personal Securities investing and any changes in the procedures made during the prior year;
o
Identifies any violations of this Code and any significant remedial action taken during the prior year;
o
Identifies any recommended changes in existing restrictions or procedures based upon the experience under the Code, evolving industry practices or developments in applicable laws and regulations; and
o
Certifies that the Adviser, the Trust and the Underwriter have each adopted procedures reasonably designed to prevent violations of this Code.
The Board of Trustees of the Trust may, in its discretion, take any actions and impose any penalty it deems appropriate upon any person that has violated the Code of Ethics of the Trust or engaged in a course of conduct which, although in technical compliance with this Code, shows a pattern of abuse by that person of his or her fiduciary duties to the Trust.
The above actions of the Board of Trustees may be in addition to any action taken by the applicable Adviser against the person or persons involved.
