President’s Message

 

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to provide you with the Annual Report for the Capital One Funds. This report covers the 12-month fiscal period from September 1, 2007 through August 31, 2008. It includes a discussion of factors affecting the Funds’ performance during the past fiscal year and a complete listing of each Fund’s portfolio holdings and audited financial statements.

Over the 12-month fiscal period, the domestic economy has shown erratic growth, with some evidence of slowing. However, despite the drag created by the weak housing market, which negatively impacted the economy throughout the period, GDP1 has generally exceeded expectations and, so far, avoided falling into negative territory. Strength in exports, aided by the weak U.S. dollar, has provided notable support to the U.S. economy, especially in the second calendar quarter of 2008, in which exports provided nearly all the growth in real GDP. Consumer spending, which comprises over two thirds of domestic GDP, has held up well during most of the period, but has showed signs of slowing in more recent months due to sluggish wage growth, high energy and commodity prices, declining home values and negative consumer confidence.

The U.S. equity markets performed poorly during the period, as investors became more risk averse due to the continuing financial crisis, and as earnings estimates for certain economic sectors became more suspect, particularly the beleaguered financial companies. The S&P 500 Index of large capitalization stocks declined 11.14% while the S&P MidCap 400 Index fared better with a decline of 4.22%. The S&P SmallCap 600 Index declined by 6.20%, indicating that investors were challenged to find opportunities for growth in domestic stocks.

The U.S. investment grade fixed income market exhibited returns near the long-term historical averages, despite the rather low yields available in the U.S. Treasury market at the beginning of the period. The 10-year U.S. Treasury note yielded 4.53% on August 31, 2007, and investors watched this yield decline to 3.81% on the last trading day of August 2008, a 72 basis point decrease (0.72%). Dramatic yield declines occurred across the Treasury maturity spectrum during the year, as investors on a global scale sought the safety of U.S. Treasuries during the mounting credit crisis. Treasuries were the top performer for the period on a total return basis, as exhibited by the Lehman U.S. Government bond index, which produced an 8.09% return over the Funds’ fiscal year. The more broadly-based Lehman Aggregate Index, which is designed to measure the performance on the entire domestic investment grade bond market, produced a respectable 5.86% return. “Spread product”, or investment grade fixed-income securities with some measure of credit risk exposure, performed less well than Treasuries as risk aversion caused spreads to widen, dampening capital gains in a declining rate environment.

The Capital One equity funds, including the Capital One Capital Appreciation Fund and the Capital One Mid Cap Equity Fund, produced negative returns in the hostile equity market environment. The comments from the funds’ portfolio manager describing the factors affecting performance are included in the pages that follow.

The Capital One fixed income funds produced positive returns commensurate with their objectives and risk posture. Please read the portfolio manager commentaries that follow.

The Capital One Cash Reserve Fund and Capital One U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund produced healthy returns while strictly following their mandate to preserve capital. The period measured was one in which money market rates declined dramatically. The target Federal Funds rate, set by the Federal Reserve’s Open Market Committee, was on a downward path during the period, falling from 5.25% in September, 2007, to 2.0% at the end of April, 2008. The target rate has been held at that level since that time. Yields on the Capital One money market funds declined in step with the Fed’s policy moves. The Cash Reserve Fund’s 30-day yield declined from 4.78% at the beginning of the period to 1.78% as the fiscal year ended. Likewise, the U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund experienced a 30-day yield that declined from 4.17% to 1.34% during the fiscal year.

President’s Message (continued)

 

 

During the month of September, the markets entered a period of extreme disruption, sending stocks lower, and equity market volatility to record levels. In one month, we experienced the two major quasi-governmental housing agencies, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, being placed into conservatorship by the U.S. Treasury, the merger of Merrill Lynch into Bank of America, the Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing of Lehman Brothers, the creation of an $85 billion credit facility for AIG by the Federal Reserve as its share price plummeted, the conversion of Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs into bank holding companies, the acquisition of Washington Mutual by J.P. Morgan Chase, and the consideration of a bill by Congress that would authorize the purchase of $700 billion of mortgage-related assets from financial institutions to free up the flow of credit in the economy. The bill eventually passed in early October. Uncertainty about the future and the lack of confidence in the creditworthiness of counterparties is driving individual and institutional investors as well as financial institutions to dramatically reduce their risk-taking. The U.S. Treasury and Federal Reserve have worked in concert to reduce the impact of this crisis, and we believe that they will ultimately succeed in overcoming it.

Thank you for investing through the Capital One Funds. We are committed to providing you with professional investment management in the financial markets with an emphasis on diversification and a high level of service.

Sincerely,

LOGO

Investment Considerations:

 

An investment in the Capital One Money Market funds is not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any other government agency. Although the funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the funds.

On October 7, 2008 the Capital One Cash Reserve Fund participated in the Treasury Money Market Guarantee Program. The Program is for shareholders as of September 19, 2008 and generally covers the lesser of the amount that the shareholder held on September 19 or the amount they hold on the date the fund needs to utilize the guarantee. If a shareholder closes their account with the fund or broker dealer after September 19, any future investment in the Fund will not be guaranteed. The guarantee is through December 18, but may be extended at the Treasury’s discretion. For further discussion on this, please refer to Note 9 on page 54 in the Notes to Financial Statements.

Equity securities (stocks) are more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. The net asset value per share of the Capital One equity funds will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.

Mid-capitalization funds typically carry additional risks since smaller companies generally have a higher risk of failure.

Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Intermediate-term, higher-quality bonds generally offer less risk than longer-term bonds and a lower rate of return.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. The yield data quoted represents past performance and current returns may be lower or higher. The investment return and net asset value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed may be worth more or less than the original cost. To obtain performance information current to the most recent month end, call 1-800-999-0426.

2008 Annual Report Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

Capital One Capital Appreciation Fund (Unaudited)

Market Review

The domestic equity markets experienced a sharp decline during the Fund’s fiscal year ended August 31, 2008. Worries about continuing problems in the financial sector drove investors to reign in risk tolerance leading to a sell-off in risky assets.

The S&P 500 Index1 returned -11.14% on a total return basis while the S&P MidCap 400 Index1 returned -4.22% and the S&P SmallCap 600 Index1 returned -6.20%. A sharp sell-off began in mid-October 2007 that carried through the spring of 2008. As it began to appear that the worst of the financial crisis was behind us, equity markets staged a strong rally in the early summer. This rally began to unwind as more and more troubles began to plague the financial sector and stocks sold off through the end of August. The credit crisis has morphed into a liquidity crisis at the nation’s major financial institutions causing major disruptions among both commercial and investment banks.

Investors in this environment have become solidly risk-averse. In addition to equity market declines, corporate bond spreads are indicative of a flight to quality unlike any seen in recent times. While financial companies stocks began to show signs of this as early as the spring of 2007, it was not until the fall of 2007 that it began to spread to the market as a whole, as noted above.

Portfolio Performance

The Capital One Capital Appreciation Fund produced a total return of -7.38% (Class A Shares at net asset value) for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2008, while the S&P 500 Index returned -11.14%. The portfolio was managed in close accordance with the Adviser’s risk-controlled core-diversified process.

The Fund’s outperformance during the fiscal year was mainly generated during the late fall and winter of 2007 when the overall market began its decline. A number of stocks substantially outperformed the market during that period, including Mosaic (chemicals), Amazon (eCommerce), MEMC Electronics (semiconductor manufacturing), McKesson (pharmaceuticals), and Apache Corp (energy). Notable underperformers during the year included Computer Sciences (technology), JC Penney and Mens’ Warehouse (apparel), and Citigroup and were sold from the portfolio.

Strategy

The risk-controlled, core-diversified process entails utilization of a multi-factor approach to identifying equity securities that are expected to outperform the market. This approach looks at earnings growth and quality indicators as well as valuation measures. Portfolio construction uses the results of that multi-factor approach in conjunction with a risk management process designed to limit equity portfolio exposure to certain identifiable risks that the Adviser believes do not add value in a risk/reward context. The Adviser controls for exposures to risks via proxies such as weighted average market capitalization, portfolio beta2, style (i.e., growth vs. value) exposure, and industry and sector weightings. The portfolio is compared to the benchmark in these respects, and exposure to these characteristics is kept closely in line with the benchmark characteristics.

As a result of this process, factors that materially affected the Fund performance were substantially limited to security selection. Portfolio holdings are constantly evaluated in accordance with the Adviser’s equity ranking process and transactions made throughout the year are made in close accordance to that process.

Investment Considerations:

Equity securities (stocks) are more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. The net asset value per share of this Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.

Capital One Louisiana Municipal Income Fund (Unaudited)

 

Market Review

The year ended August 31, 2008 was a year in which long rates did not change significantly (a decline of 40 basis points (0.40%)) point to point, but experienced significant volatility in the interim. The yield on the 10-year note declined 0.72% in the year, with the steepest decline occurring early spring as continued fear of deteriorating credit conditions spurred strong demand for U.S. Treasury securities. The Federal funds target rate was lowered from 5.25% to 2.00%. Economic weakness, illiquidity in the debt markets, financial institution failure and government bailouts continue to plague our financial system. Municipals rallied in late 2007 in response to slower economic fundamentals, but reversed course in 2008 as bond insurers began to be downgraded. The failure of many short term auction securities to clear the market also added the anxiety among investors, which led to relative underperformance by municipals relative to the U.S. Treasury markets. The Louisiana market further lagged the general municipal market. As an example the Lehman Brothers 10 year Municipal Index returned 5.73% while the Louisiana component returned only 5.21%.

Portfolio Performance

The 12-month return on the Louisiana Municipal Income Fund was 4.91% (Class A Shares at net asset value) compared to the Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Average1 of 0.76%, and ranked in the 2nd percentile among 145 funds in the Other States Municipal Debt Funds category. The Fund returns lagged the primary benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Seven Year Insured Bond Index which produced 6.71%. The benchmark’s outperformance was primarily due to the muted performance of Louisiana bonds during the year. Beginning with calendar year 2008, the Fund added the Lehman Brothers 1 - 10 Year Municipal Blend Index as a secondary performance benchmark.

Strategy

The Fund’s strategy through most of the fiscal year was focused upon delivering enhanced performance while managing duration and credit risk within acceptable parameters that are consistent with the Fund’s objectives. Portfolio strategy has generally been focused on delivering a high level of income, exempt from both Federal and Louisiana income taxes, consistent with the management of interest rate and credit risk. Until late August, 2008, the strategy with respect to the Fund was to maintain a neutral stance relative to benchmark duration and to take advantage of market opportunities in the Louisiana municipal marketplace.

As part of Capital One’s exit from the proprietary fund business, Capital One Asset Management (COAM) began an orderly liquidation of the Louisiana Municipal Income Fund on Monday, August 25, 2008, following final shareholder approval on that same date. The Fund’s tax-exempt assets have since been sold and the Fund now holds cash equivalent securities and federal agency discount notes in order to preserve capital pending final distribution of the assets to Fund shareholders. This is scheduled to occur on October 17, 2008.

Investment Considerations:

Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Intermediate-term, higher-quality bonds generally offer less risk than longer-term bonds and a lower rate of return.

Certain shareholders may be subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Federal income tax rules will apply to any capital gains distributions.

The Fund’s income may be subject to certain state and local taxes and, depending on your tax status, the federal alternative minimum tax.

 

1 The Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Average is an equally weighted average consisting of managed mutual funds that invest in municipal debt issues and are exempt from taxation on a specified city or state basis. For the one-year period ended August 31, 2008, the Capital One Louisiana Municipal Income Fund ranked 2 out of 145 funds within the Other States Municipal Debt Funds category. For the five- and 10-year periods ended August 31, 2008, the Fund ranked 25 out of 136 and 10 out of 116, respectively. The Lipper rankings are based on total return and do not reflect a sales charge.

The performance of the Capital One Louisiana Municipal Income Fund is measured against the Lehman Brothers Seven Year Insured Bond Index. The Lehman Brothers Seven Year Insured Bond Index is a broad-based market index comprised of investment-grade municipal bonds with maturities close to seven years. The Lehman Brothers 1-10 Year Municipal Blend Index is a rules-based and market-value weighted index engineered for the long-term tax-exempt bond market. This index is the 1-10 Year Blend (1-12) component of the Municipal Bond index. It is comprised of 20% equal weighting of the Lehman 1-, 3-, 5-, 7- and 10-year municipal indexes. To be included in the index, bonds must have a minimum credit rating of at least Baa, and outstanding par value of at least $5 million and be issued as part of a transaction of at least $50 million. Bonds must have a dated date after 12/31/90 and be at least one year from their maturity date. These indices are unmanaged and do not reflect the deduction of fees associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management and fund accounting. The Fund’s performance reflects the deduction of fees for these services. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Capital One Mid Cap Equity Fund (Unaudited)

 

Market Review

The domestic equity markets experienced a sharp decline during the fund’s fiscal year ended August 31, 2008. Worries about continuing problems in the financial sector drove investors to reign in risk tolerance leading to a sell-off in risky assets.

The S&P 500 Index1 returned -11.14% on a total return basis while the S&P MidCap 400 Index1 returned -4.22% and the S&P SmallCap 600 Index1 returned -6.20%. A sharp sell-off began in mid-October 2007 that carried through the spring of 2008. As it began to appear that the worst of the financial crisis was behind us, equity markets staged a strong rally in the early summer. This rally began to unwind as more and more troubles began to plague the financial sector and stocks sold off through the end of August. The credit crisis has morphed into a liquidity crisis at the nation’s major financial institutions causing major disruptions among both commercial and investment banks.

Investors in this environment have become solidly risk-averse. In addition to equity market declines, corporate bond spreads are indicative of a flight-to-quality unlike any seen in recent times. While financial companies stocks began to show signs of this as early as the spring of 2007, it was not until the fall of 2007 that it began to spread to the market as a whole, as noted above .

Portfolio Performance

The Capital One Mid Cap Equity Fund produced a total return of -9.43% (Class A Shares at net asset value) for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2008, while the S&P MidCap 400 Index returned -4.22%. The portfolio was managed in close accordance with the Adviser’s risk-controlled core-diversified process.

The Fund’s Portfolio underperformance during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2008 was mainly generated during the rally that began in March of 2008 and culminated in mid-June of 2008. This was largely attributable to the earnings momentum factors utilized in the multi-factor equity evaluation approach being “out-of-sync” with the market. The market was not rewarding those factors during that time-period in the way that the Adviser believes it does over extended market cycles. Stocks that contributed to this underperformance during this time included, Hospitality Properties and Colonial Properties (REIT’s), Humana and Coventry Health Care (Health Care), and Tesoro (energy). A number of stocks that helped boost performance during the time included, Celanese Corp (chemicals), Steel Dynamics (metals), Joy Global (mining), and Cabot Oil & Gas and Tidewater (energy).

Strategy

The risk-controlled, core-diversified process entails utilization of a multi-factor approach to identifying equity securities that are expected to outperform the market. This approach looks at earnings growth and quality indicators as well as valuation measures. Portfolio construction uses the results of that multi-factor approach in conjunction with a risk management process designed to limit equity portfolio exposure to certain identifiable risks that the Adviser believes do not add value in a risk/reward context. The Adviser controls for exposures to risks via proxies such as weighted average market capitalization, portfolio beta2, style (i.e., growth vs. value) exposure, and industry and sector weightings. The portfolio is compared to the benchmark in these respects, and exposure to these characteristics is kept closely in line with the benchmark characteristics.

As a result of this process, factors that materially affected the Fund performance was substantially limited to security selection. Portfolio holdings are constantly evaluated in accordance with the Adviser’s equity ranking process and transactions made throughout the year are made in close accordance to that process.

Investment Considerations:

Equity securities (stocks) are more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. The net asset value per share of this Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.

Mid-capitalization funds typically carry additional risks since smaller companies generally have a higher risk of failure.

Capital One Total Return Bond Fund (Unaudited)

 

Market Review

The year ended August 31, 2008 was a year in which long rates did not change significantly (a decline of 40 basis points (0.40%)) point to point, but experienced significant volatility in the interim. The yield on the 10-year note declined 0.72% in the year, with the steepest decline occurring early spring as continued fear of deteriorating credit conditions spurred strong demand for U.S. Treasury securities. The fed funds target rate was lowered from 5.25% to 2.00%. Economic weakness, illiquidity in the debt markets, financial institution failure and government bailouts continue to plague our financial system. Spreads on government sponsored enterprises obligations including Agency mortgage backed securities increased to historically high levels and remain high despite dramatic government intervention. The yield curve steepened, with the 2-year maturity moving down over 200 basis points (2.00%) while the 30-year maturity declined 45 basis points (0.45%).

Portfolio Performance

Portfolio strategy over the past year involved modest shifts in portfolio duration based on the relative value of bonds within a range. Credit quality was kept high quality relative to the index and credit concentrations were minimized. The conservative credit posture of the Fund has contributed to marked improvement in the Fund’s standing relative to peers in the Lipper Average. As of August 31, 2008 the Fund ranked in the 16th percentile for the 12-month period among 556 funds in the Intermediate Investment Grade Debt Funds category. The Fund’s 12 month return was 5.52% (at net asset value) compared to a Lipper Intermediate Investment Grade Debt Funds Average1 of 1.58%. The Lehman Brothers U.S. Aggregate Index return was 5.86%. The Index return was aided by a higher percentage of U.S. Treasury securities than was held by the Fund.

Strategy

The portfolio is currently positioned with a duration that is neutral to the benchmark, with modest over-weight positions in Agency securities and Commercial Mortgage Backed Securities.

Investment Considerations:

Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Intermediate-term, higher-quality bonds generally offer less risk than longer-term bonds and a lower rate of return.

The Lipper Intermediate Investment Grade Debt Funds Average is an equally weighted average consisting of managed mutual funds that invest at least 65% of their assets in investment grade issues (rated in the top four grades) with dollar-weighted average maturities of five to ten years. For the one-year period ended August 31, 2008, the Capital One Total Return Bond Fund ranked 16 out of 556 funds within the Intermediate Investment Grade Debt Funds category. For the five- and 10-year periods ended August 31, 2008, the Fund ranked 55 out of 398 and 66 out of 200, respectively. The Lipper rankings are based on total return and do not reflect a sales charge.

Capital One U.S. Government Income Fund (Unaudited)

 

Market Review

The year ended August 31, 2008 was a year in which long rates did not change significantly (a decline of 40 basis points (0.40%)) point to point, but experienced significant volatility in the interim. The yield on the 10-year note declined 0.72% in the year, with the steepest decline occurring early spring as continued fear of deteriorating credit conditions spurred strong demand for U.S. Treasury securities. The fed funds target rate was lowered from 5.25% to 2.00%.

Economic weakness, illiquidity in the debt markets, financial institution failure and government bailouts continue to plague our financial system. Given these extreme crosscurrents, we have managed the Fund relatively neutral to the benchmarks throughout the entire year. We believe the Federal Reserve will ultimately be successful in restoring order and growth to the U.S. economy and at some point a rising interest rate environment may likely re-emerge, but until that scenario comes into sharper focus we expect to continue a relatively neutral duration policy.

Portfolio Performance

The Capital One U.S. Government Income Fund produced a total return of 6.06% (at net asset value) for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2008. The Lipper Intermediate U.S. Government Funds Average1 returned 5.24% for the period. The Fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government Index produced a total return of 7.73%.

Performance has lagged the benchmark throughout the year due to our underweight in U.S. Treasury securities and overweight in spread product versus the Lehman Brothers U.S. Government Intermediate Index. While we have intermittently benefited from this strategy throughout the past 12 months, the flight to quality trade (i.e., Treasury securities) has dominated the market due to economic weakness, stress in the capital markets and geopolitical unrest. Our Treasury allocation in the Fund is 23.89% versus the 66.09% allocation in the Lehman Brothers Government Intermediate Index.

Strategy

Portfolio strategy continue to focus on high quality, income-producing government or government sponsored Agency securities with a minor allocation to credit. Going forward we expect to maintain a relatively neutral duration strategy in this Fund.

Investment Considerations:

Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Intermediate-term, higher-quality bonds generally offer less risk than longer-term bonds and a lower rate of return.

Capital One Funds—Shareholder Expense Example (Unaudited)

 

As a shareholder of the Capital One Funds (“Funds”), you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase or redemption payments; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or shareholder services fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2008 to August 31, 2008.

Actual Expenses

The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you incurred 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 section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses attributable to your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which are not the Funds’ actual returns. Thus, you should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate the actual ending account balance or your expenses for the period. Rather, these figures are required to be provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds with other funds. To do this, 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) on purchases or redemption payments. Therefore, the hypothetical examples 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 transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

1 Sector classifications, and the assignment of holdings to such sectors, are based upon economic sector and/or revenue source of the underlying obligor, as determined by the Fund’s adviser. For securities that have been enhanced by a third-party (other than a bond issuer), such as guarantor, sector classifications are based upon economic sector and/or revenue source of the third-party as determined by the Fund’s adviser. Securities that are issued by a bond insurer are assigned to the “Insured” sector. Prerefunded securities are those whose debt service is paid from escrowed assets, usually U.S. government securities.

Capital One Funds—Notes to Financial Statements

 

As of August 31, 2008

 

(1) ORGANIZATION

Capital One Funds (the “Trust”), organized as a Massachusetts business trust, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust consists of seven portfolios (individually referred to as the “Fund”, or collectively as the “Funds”) which are presented herein:

 

Portfolio Name

  

Diversification

  

Investment Objective

Capital One Capital Appreciation Fund (“Capital Appreciation Fund”)    diversified    provide growth of capital and income
Capital One Louisiana Municipal Income Fund (“Louisiana Municipal Income Fund”)    non-diversified    provide current income which is generally exempt from federal regular income tax and personal income taxes imposed by the state of Louisiana
Capital One Mid Cap Equity Fund (“Mid Cap Equity Fund”)    diversified    total return
Capital One Total Return Bond Fund (“Total Return Bond Fund”)    diversified    maximize total return
Capital One U.S. Government Income Fund (“U.S. Government Income Fund”)    diversified    provide current income
Capital One Cash Reserve Fund (“Cash Reserve Fund”)    diversified    provide current income consistent with stability of principal
Capital One U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund (“U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund”)    diversified    provide current income consistent with stability of principal and liquidity

The assets of each Fund are segregated and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held. The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited amount of shares without par value. Capital Appreciation Fund, Louisiana Municipal Income Fund, Mid Cap Equity Fund and Cash Reserve Fund offer two classes of shares: Class A Shares and Class B Shares. All shares of Capital Appreciation Fund, Louisiana Municipal Income Fund, Mid Cap Equity Fund and Cash Reserve Fund have equal rights and privileges except with respect to the fees paid under the Distribution Plan, Shareholder Services Fees and voting rights on matters affecting a single class of shares and sales charges. The Class A Shares of the Capital Appreciation Fund and the Mid Cap Equity Fund have a maximum sales charge of 4.50% as a percentage of the original purchase price. The Class A Shares of the Louisiana Municipal Income Fund has a maximum sales charge of 3.00% as a percentage of the original purchase price. The Total Return Bond Fund and the U.S. Government Income Fund have a maximum front-end sales charge of 3.00% as a percentage of the original price. The Class B Shares of the Capital Appreciation Fund, the Mid Cap Equity Fund and the Louisiana Municipal Income Fund are offered without any front-end sales charge but will be subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (“CDSC”) ranging from a maximum of 5.50% if redeemed less than one year after purchase to 0.00% if redeemed more than six years after purchase.

Under the Funds’ organizational documents, its Officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds may enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds. However, based on experience, the Funds expect that risk of loss to be remote.

 

(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment Valuations:

Municipal bonds are valued by an independent pricing service, taking into consideration yield, liquidity, risk, credit quality, coupon, maturity, type of issue and any other factors or market data the pricing service deems relevant. Total Return Bond Fund and U.S. Government Income Fund generally value fixed income securities according to prices furnished by an independent pricing service, except that fixed income securities with remaining maturities of less than 60 days at the time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price or official closing price reported on a national securities exchange, if available. If unavailable, the security is generally valued at the mean between the last closing bid and asked prices. Cash Reserve Fund and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund use the amortized cost method to value portfolio securities in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the Act. Capital Appreciation Fund, Louisiana Municipal Income Fund, Mid Cap Equity Fund, Total Return Bond Fund and U.S. Government Income Fund generally value short-term securities according to prices furnished by an independent pricing service, except that short-term securities with remaining maturities of less than 60 days at the time of purchase

Capital One Funds—Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

As of August 31, 2008

 

may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Fixed income and short-term security prices furnished by an independent pricing service are intended to be indicative of the mean between the bid and asked prices currently offered to institutional investors for the securities. Investments in other open-end regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value. Securities for which no quotations are readily available are valued at fair value as determined in accordance with procedures established by and under general supervision of the Board of Trustees (the “Trustees”). In addition, specific securities may need to be valued by or at the direction of the Funds’ Board of Trustees due to potentially significant events. Examples of potentially significant events that could affect the value of an individual security include corporate actions by the issuer, announcements by the issuer relating to its earnings or profits, regulatory news, natural disasters and litigation. Examples of potentially significant events that could affect multiple securities held by a Fund include governmental actions, natural disasters and armed conflicts.

Repurchase Agreements:

The Funds will enter into repurchase agreements only with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as securities dealers, deemed creditworthy by the Funds’ investment adviser Capital One Asset Management LLC. Repurchase agreements are transactions in which a Fund buys a security from a dealer or bank and agrees to sell the security back at a mutually agreed-upon time and price. The repurchase price is greater than the price paid by the Funds, reflecting an agreed-upon market interest rate during the purchaser’s holding period. While the maturities of the underlying collateral securities in repurchase transactions may be more than one year, the term of each repurchase agreement will always be less than one year.

In addition, the value of the collateral underlying the repurchase agreement will always be at least equal to the repurchase price, including any accrued interest earned on the repurchase agreement. The collateral underlying the repurchase agreement is held by the Funds’ custodian or sub-custodian. In the event of a default or bankruptcy by a selling financial institution, the Funds will seek to liquidate such collateral which could involve certain costs or delays and, to the extent that proceeds from any sale upon a default of the obligation to repurchase were less than the repurchase price, the Funds’ could suffer a loss. The Funds’ also may experience difficulties and incur certain costs in exercising its rights to the collateral and may lose the interest the Funds’ expected to receive under the repurchase agreement.

Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions:

Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions of net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly for Cash Reserve Fund and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund. Distributions of net investment income are declared and paid quarterly for Capital Appreciation Fund and Mid Cap Equity Fund. Distributions of net investment income are declared and paid monthly for Louisiana Municipal Income Fund, Total Return Bond Fund and U.S. Government Income Fund. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. Investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, and certain fund-level expenses are allocated to each class based on relative average daily net assets, except that each class bears certain expenses unique to that class such as distribution and shareholder services fees. Dividends are declared separately for each class. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences in separate class expenses.

The Funds’ net realized gains, if any, are distributed to shareholders at least annually. Additional distributions are also made to the Funds’ shareholders to the extent necessary to avoid the federal excise tax on certain undistributed income and net capital gains of regulated investment companies.

The character of income and gains distributed are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature (e.g. reclass of market discounts, net operating loss, certain gain/loss, paydowns and certain distributions), such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences (e.g. wash sales) do not require reclassification. Dividends to shareholders which exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes are reported as distributions of capital

Premium and Discount Amortization/Paydown Gains and Losses:

All premiums and discounts on fixed income securities are amortized/accreted for financial statement purposes. Gains and losses realized on principal payment of mortgage-backed securities (paydown gains and losses) are classified as part of investment income.

Federal Taxes:

It is the Funds’ policy to comply with the Subchapter M provision of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of their income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax is necessary.

Withholding taxes, and where appropriate, deferred withholding taxes, on foreign interest, dividends and capital gains has been provided for in accordance with the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

In addition, effective February 29, 2008, the Funds adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the affirmative evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not (i.e., greater than 50-percent) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. Differences between tax positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statements will generally result in an increase in a liability for taxes payable (or a reduction of a tax refund receivable), including the recognition of any related interest and penalties as an operating expense. Implementation of FIN 48 included a review of tax positions taken in tax years that remain subject to examination by tax authorities (i.e., the last 4 tax year ends and the interim tax period since then, as applicable). The adoption of FIN 48 did not impact the Funds’ net assets or results of operations.

As of August 31, 2008

 

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions:

The Funds may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Funds record when-issued securities on the trade date and maintain security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

Other:

Investment transactions are recorded no later than one business day after trade date throughout the period. For financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are recorded on trade date on the last business day of the reporting period. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified cost basis.

Real Estate Investment Trusts:

The Funds may own shares of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) which report information on the source of their distributions annually. Certain distributions received from REITs during the year, which are known to be a return of capital, are recorded as a reduction to the cost of the individual REIT.

New Accounting Standards:

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The changes to current generally accepted accounting principles from the application of this Statement relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. As of August 31, 2008, the Funds do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will impact the financial statement amounts, however, additional disclosures will be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements on changes in net assets for the period.

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. SFAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about the Funds’ derivative and hedging activities, including how such activities are accounted for and their effect on the Funds’ financial positions, performance and cash flows. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 161 will have on the Funds’ financial statements and related disclosures.

(4) FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due in part to differing treatments for Real Estate Investment Trust reclasses, and discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities and redemptions-in-kind.

As of the tax year ended August 31, 2008, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were as follows:

 

Fund

   Paid
In Capital
    Undistributed Net
Investment Income
   Accumulated
Net Realized
Gains (Losses)
 

Capital Appreciation Fund

   $ 3,369,497     $ —      $ (3,369,497 )

Louisiana Municipal Income Fund

U.S. Government Income Fund

Net investment income, net realized gains (losses), and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.

As of the year ended August 31, 2008, Mid Cap Equity Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, U.S. Government Income Fund, Cash Reserve Fund and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund had capital loss carryforwards, as noted below, which will reduce each Fund’s taxable income arising from future net realized gain on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code, and thus will reduce the amount of the distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve each Fund of any liability for federal income tax. Pursuant to the Code, such capital loss carryforwards will expire as follows:

Custodian Fees:

Capital One National Association serves as the Funds’ custodian and receives compensation based on the average daily net assets of each Fund, subject to an annual minimum of $15,000. Expenses incurred by the Funds are reflected on the Statements of Operations as “Custodian fees.” Information regarding these transactions is as follows for the year ended August 31, 2008:

 

Maximum Custodian Fee

   

Average Aggregate Daily Net Assets of each Fund

0.025 %   on the first $100 million
0.020 %   on the next $200 million
0.010 %   on the next $200 million
0.005 %   on assets in excess of $500 million

General:

Certain Officers of the Funds are affiliated with the Adviser or the Administrator. Such Officers receive no compensation from the Funds for serving in their respective roles. Each of the four non-interested Trustees who serve on both the Board and the Audit Committee are compensated $4,500 per quarter and $2,000 for each regularly scheduled meeting, plus reimbursement for certain expenses.

 

(6) INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

The cost of investment purchases and the proceeds from the sale of securities (excluding long-term U.S. Government securities and securities maturing less than one year from acquisition), for the year ended August 31, 2008 were as follows:

 

Fund

   Purchases    Sales

Capital Appreciation Fund

   $ 78,956,629    $ 120,127,131

Louisiana Municipal Income Fund

     31,268,624      52,552,264

Mid Cap Equity Fund

     79,541,638      136,382,058

Total Return Bond Fund

     39,205,066      7,225,619

U.S. Government Income Fund

     15,759,135      10,393,043

Purchases and sales of U.S. Government Securities (excluding securities maturing less than one year from acquisition) for the year ended August 31, 2008 were as follows:

 

     Purchases    Sales

Total Return Bond Fund

   $ 26,657,566    $ 7,295,551

U.S. Government Income Fund

     44,577,943      45,023,005

 

(7) CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Since the Louisiana Municipal Income Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers located in one state, it will be more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of that state than would be a comparable tax-exempt mutual fund that invests nationally. In order to reduce the credit risk associated with such factors, at August 31, 2008, 68.2% of the securities in the portfolio of investments were backed by letters of credit or bond insurance of various financial institutions and financial guaranty assurance agencies. The largest percentage of investments insured by or supported (backed) by a letter of credit from any one institution or agency was 23.0% of total investments.

 

(8) REDEMPTION-IN-KIND TRANSACTIONS

During the year ended August 31, 2008, the Capital Appreciation Fund delivered securities of the Fund in exchange for the redemption of Class A Shares (redemption-in-kind). Cash and securities were transferred for redemptions at a fair value. For financial reporting purposes the Capital Appreciation Fund recorded net realized gains in connection with the transactions. Information on the transactions were as follows:

 

Fund

   Shares Redeemed    Value    Net Realized Gains

Capital Appreciation Fund

   897,696    $ 13,330,780    $ 3,369,497

However, for tax purposes, the transactions received tax-free treatment. These permanent book to tax differences were reclassified within the components of net assets in accordance with the Fund’s accounting policies as discussed in Note 2 to Notes to Financial Statements.

 

(9) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS AND FUND CHANGES

Fund Mergers:

On June 19, 2008, the Board of Trustees of the Trust unanimously approved a form of Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (“Reorganization Plans”) to be entered into between each of the six portfolios of the Trust listed below (the “Capital One Funds”) and certain registered investment companies which are sponsored and advised by Fidelity Management and Research Company (“Fidelity” and each registered investment company advised by Fidelity, a “Fidelity Fund”). The Reorganization Plans, which provide

As of August 31, 2008

 

for the reorganization of the Capital One Funds into corresponding Fidelity Funds (each a “Reorganization” and collectively, the “Reorganizations”), were submitted to a vote of shareholders of the applicable Capital One Funds at a shareholder meeting held on October 21, 2008 (“Shareholder Meeting”). At the Shareholder Meeting, the Reorganization Plans were approved by shareholders, and the Reorganizations are expected to occur in November 2008 (“Reorganization Date”). Until the Reorganization Date, shareholders will be able to redeem or exchange Capital One Fund shares, subject to the usual limitations described in the Trust’s Prospectus. However, purchase orders into the Capital One Funds may be restricted shortly before the closing of the Reorganizations. Shareholders of the Capital One Funds may also receive a capital gains distribution prior to the closing of the Reorganization.

The following outlines the approved Reorganizations, as well as the acquiring Fidelity Funds:

Proposal 6    Capital One U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund    Fidelity Institutional Money Market Fund – Treasury Portfolio
      Class III

Fund Liquidation:

On June 19, 2008, the Board of Trustees of the Trust unanimously approved a Plan of Liquidation (“Liquidation Plan”) on behalf of the Capital One Louisiana Municipal Income Fund. At a Special Meeting of Shareholders of the Capital One Louisiana Municipal Income Fund held on August 25, 2008, a proposal to consider the Liquidation Plan was approved. The number of shares voted for, against or abstained are as follows:

 

For

 

Against

2,735,912

  12,477  

12,980

The Capital One Louisiana Municipal Income Fund was fully liquidated on October 17, 2008, and shareholders received proceeds for their ending share balance.

Participation in Treasury Money Market Guarantee Program (Unaudited):

The Board of Trustees of the Trust, on behalf of the Capital One Cash Reserve Fund (the “Fund” or “Cash Reserve Fund”), has approved and the Fund has applied for participation in the U.S. Treasury Department’s Temporary Guarantee Program for money market funds (the “Guarantee Program”). The Fund participation agreement was reviewed and accepted by the Treasury on October 20, 2008.

Subject to certain conditions and limitations, share amounts held by investors in the Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008 are guaranteed against loss under the Guarantee Program in the event the market-based net asset value per share is less than $0.995 (a “Guarantee Event”). If a Guarantee Event occurs the Fund will be required to liquidate in order to receive payment under the Guarantee Program. The maximum amount covered under the Guarantee Program is the equivalent of the amount a shareholder held in the Fund on September 19, 2008. The Guarantee Program is subject to an overall limit of approximately $50 billion for all money market funds participating in the Guarantee Program.

The cost to participate in the Guarantee Program for the initial three months is 0.01% of the net asset value of the Fund as of September 19, 2008 and will be borne by the Fund. The initial term of the Program expires December 18, 2008. However, Fund shareholders were previously mailed a proxy statement/prospectus notifying them of a proposed reorganization of the Fund into the Fidelity Institutional Money Market Fund—Prime Money Market Portfolio (the “Fidelity Prime Money Market Portfolio”) which is advised by Fidelity Management & Research Company (“Fidelity”). On October 21, 2008 shareholders of the Fund approved the reorganization of the Fund into the Fidelity Prime Money Market Portfolio, which is scheduled to occur on or about November 21, 2008. Fidelity has indicated that, following the reorganization of the Fund, Fidelity will file an acknowledgment to the Treasury agreeing to be bound by the Fund’s guarantee agreement, thereby seeking to ensure that Fund shareholders will have the benefit of the Guarantee Program through December 18, 2008.

Capital One Funds—Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Capital One Funds:

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the Capital One Funds (comprised of the Capital One Capital Appreciation Fund, Capital One Louisiana Municipal Income Fund, Capital One Mid Cap Equity Fund, Capital One Total Return Bond Fund, Capital One U.S. Government Income Fund, Capital One Cash Reserve Fund, and Capital One U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund) (the Funds), including the portfolios of investments, as of August 31, 2008, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds’ 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 Funds’ 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 and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2008, 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 each of the Funds constituting the Capital One Funds at August 31, 2008, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Table of Contents

Mutual funds are not bank deposits, or obligations, are not guaranteed by any bank, and are not insured or guaranteed by the U.S. government, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board, or any other government agency. Investment in mutual funds involves investment risk, including the possible loss of principal. An investment in Capital One Cash Reserve Fund and Capital One U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Money Market Funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in these Funds. On October 7, 2008 the Capital One Cash Reserve Fund participated in the Treasury Money Market Guarantee Program.

This report is authorized for distribution to prospective investors only when preceded or accompanied by the Funds’ prospectus, which contains facts concerning their objectives and policies, management fees, expenses and other information.

(e)(1) The Audit Committee (“Audit Committee”) of the Board of Trustees (“Board”) of Capital One Funds (the “Trust”) is required to pre-approve audit services provided to the Trust, and non-audit services provided not only to the Trust, but also to the investment advisor to the funds of the Trust and to other entities in the fund complex, if the relevant entity provides ongoing services to the Trust and the independent auditor’s services have a direct impact on the Trust’s operations or financial reporting. This pre-approval of non-audit services performed by the independent auditors is required in order to assure that the provision of such services do not impair the auditor’s independence. Unless a type of service to be provided by the independent auditor has received general pre-approval, it will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. Any proposed services exceeding pre-approved cost levels will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee.

The term of the general pre-approval is 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Audit Committee specifically provides for a different period. The Audit Committee will annually review and pre-approve the services that may be provided by the independent auditors without obtaining specific pre-approval from the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee may revise the list of general pre-approved services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations. The Audit Committee will not delegate its responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the independent auditors to management.

The Audit Committee delegates pre-approval authority to the Chairman of the Audit Committee. The Chairman will report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee will designate another member with pre-approval authority when the Chairman is unavailable.

AUDIT SERVICES

The annual Audit services engagement terms and fees will be subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will approve, if necessary, any changes in terms, conditions and fees resulting from changes in audit scope, Trust structure or other matters.

In addition to the annual Audit services engagement specifically approved by the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval for other Audit services, which are those services that are normally provided by the independent auditor in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

With respect to the provisions of services other than audit, review or attest services the pre-approval requirement is waived if:

(1) The aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than five percent of the total amount of revenues paid by the Trust to its independent auditor during the fiscal year in which the services are provided;

(2) Such services were not recognized by the issuer or Trust at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and

(3) Such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Audit Committee and approved prior to the completion of the audit by the Audit Committee or by one or more members of the Audit Committee who are members of the Board to whom authority to grant such approvals has been delegated by the Audit Committee.

AUDIT-RELATED SERVICES

Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Trust’s financial statement or that are traditionally performed by the independent auditor.

TAX SERVICES

The Audit Committee believes that the independent auditor can provide Tax services to the Trust such as tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice without impairing the auditor’s independence. However, the Audit Committee will not permit the retention of the independent auditor in connection with a transaction initially recommended by the independent auditor, the purpose of which may be tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may not be supported n the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations.


Table of Contents

ALL OTHER SERVICES

The Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval to those permissible non-audit services classified as All Other Services that it believes are routine and recurring services, and would not impair the independence of the auditors.

The SEC’s rules and relevant guidance should be consulted to determine the precise definitions of these services and the applicability of exceptions to certain of the prohibitions.

PRE-APPROVAL FEE LEVELS

Pre-approval fee levels for all services to be provided by the independent auditor will be established annually by the Audit Committee. Any proposed services exceeding these levels will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee.

PROCEDURES

Requests or applications to provide services that require specific approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit Committee by both the independent auditor and the Fund’s Principal Accounting Officer and must include a joint statement as to whether, in their view, the request or application is consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence.

In accordance with PCAOB Rule 3524, request for pre-approval of permissible tax services by the independent auditor must have the following items described in writing for the Audit Committee:

 

 

the scope of the proposed tax service;

 

 

the fee structure for the engagement;

 

 

any side letters, amendments to the engagement letter or any other agreements, whether oral, written or otherwise, relating to the services between the audit firm and the Trust; and

 

 

any compensation arrangements or other agreements between the audit firm and any third party with respect to promoting, marketing, or recommending a transaction covered by the proposed tax service.

The Audit Committee will require the audit firm to discuss the potential impact of the proposed tax service on the audit firm’s independence in accordance with PCAOB 3524.
